| vlar | nsadmin actually i don't want to get into scripting tonight , I just want a paquet, any idea? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| nsadmin | vlar: sounds like a custom job to me | 00:00 |
| vlar | nsadmin ouch :( | 00:01 |
| vlar | nsadmin do u like hacking big companies ? :p | 00:03 |
| nsadmin | and when you get fairly deep, shell scripting is probably harder than perl, harder than python, maybe harder than lisp | 00:03 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | does anyone knows if there is a frontend gui for squid3? | 00:03 |
| nsadmin | vlar: no, I like doing joint ventures that make both of us money | 00:04 |
| vlar | nsadmin that's great ! do u want me to share my trick ? | 00:06 |
| cachtkntx | hi... is there ppc (imac) channel? a bit of a noob with linux and having trouble with the nvidia driver | 00:06 |

| cachtkntx | ok here it goes... i installed 9.10 on an imac flatpanel 17" G4 (read the powerpcfaq)... all went well. For some odd reason the resolution is right but the color depth looks off on the screen. | 00:09 |
| cachtkntx | tried the nouveau... same thing... | 00:09 |
| nsadmin | !find xotcl | 00:09 |
| ubottu | Found: aolserver4-xotcl, xotcl, xotcl-dev, xotcl-doc, xotcl-shells | 00:09 |
| Jason1 | Any Ubuntu help? | 00:09 |
| cachtkntx | tried to edit the xorg.conf... it's empty | 00:09 |
| nsadmin | that;s normal, mostly xorg can autodetect | 00:10 |
| nsadmin | you can make a config file by doing X -configure | 00:10 |
| Typos_King | cachtkntx: define 'odd' | 00:10 |
| Typos_King | cachtkntx: define 'off', rather | 00:10 |
| nsadmin | not divisible by 2? | 00:10 |
| cachtkntx | will try that | 00:10 |
| Typos_King | heheh | 00:10 |
| nsadmin | not divisible by 2 and no power applied? | 00:11 |
| Typos_King | well, you can divide an odd by 2 :P, if you don't mind the floats | 00:11 |
| cachtkntx | off as in ... the boot and shutdown splash logo is totally solarized (rainbow colors)... desktop background more so any image is grainy and gradient is not smooth | 00:11 |
| genii | cachtkntx: You can't do that command while an X session runs, this includes gdm. Also after copy the xorg.conf.new file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 00:11 |
| nsadmin | true; I didn't properly qualify | 00:12 |
| Typos_King | cachtkntx: ahhh, low color resolution depth, check what depth you have -> xdpyinfo | grep -i "of root"; I'd gather 8bit or 256 | 00:12 |
| mfive | hey guys, is there anyone here that may be able to answer a few (i think) simple questions about virtualhosts and subdomains | 00:13 |
| Typos_King | cachtkntx: that'd be due to the use of generic video drivers though, you can check the repositories for a Restricted one or newer one | 00:13 |
| nsadmin | mfive: a lot of that is probably going to involve dns | 00:14 |
| mfive | i haven't even asked a question yet! | 00:14 |
| mfive | but I think you're right - in a sense | 00:14 |
| mfive | i'm trying to access my subdomain virtualhost from another computer on the LAN | 00:15 |

| techhelper1 | are you using an ip or the hostname? | 00:15 |
| mfive | hostname | 00:15 |
| cachtkntx | Typos_King: depth of root window: 24 planes | 00:15 |
| mfive | can you use a subdomain with an ip? | 00:15 |
| techhelper1 | no | 00:15 |
| mfive | i didn't think so | 00:16 |
| techhelper1 | and not with the hostname | 00:16 |
| nsadmin | but you should just ask, and let anyone answer... be specific informative concise complete... and remember that everyone will be answering the following question for themselves (and you should too): what is the highest best use of my time | 00:16 |
| techhelper1 | subdomains are for domains | 00:16 |
| liquid | could anybody here please tell me, how to compare two md5 string containing files which look like file_a: id:hash:salt file_b: hash:salt:plaintext and get sed to replace hash:salt from file a with plaintext from file b (i just started using sed so i'm not that familiar using it yet) | 00:16 |
| Typos_King | cachtkntx: .... that's 32bit colors :{ | 00:16 |
| techhelper1 | i forget the cloak mode on here | 00:16 |
| mfive | okay, but i can access it via http://subdomain.hostname from the browser on my server and it works | 00:16 |
| nsadmin | and subs are for sandwich shops! | 00:16 |
| cachtkntx | Typos_King: then it's the driver :\ | 00:16 |
| Typos_King | cachtkntx: 32bit is 24bit plus 8bit for z-bumping, but X shows it as 24, no 32 as many consider it as misnomer anyhow | 00:17 |
| Typos_King | cachtkntx: you can check the repositories for a Restricted one or newer one | 00:17 |
| mfive | i need to have the subs working so that when I'm developing sites i can use relative urls to the document root and it won't matter what folder the files are actually in. hope that makes sense | 00:17 |
| cachtkntx | Typos_King: gonna take a look... tnx for the tip | 00:17 |
| nsadmin | mfive: example? | 00:18 |
| techhelper1 | do you have it set to "allow from all" | 00:18 |
| techhelper1 | or "allow from 127.0.0.1" | 00:18 |
| === tag_ is now known as tag | ||
| nsadmin | when you say "I can see it from ..." you mean exactly what? and when you say "except these other machines, so I can't see it from them" -exactly- what do you mean? | 00:20 |
| mfive | nsadmin: I have several sites I'm developing. They are located in /var/www/site1, /var/www/site2, /var/www/site3. So they have relative links in the html/php files to images <img src="/images/234.jpg" />, that way, when the site goes live I don't have to change a thing. So i set these up as subdomain virtualhosts. and it works fantastic. All of my images show up when I go to http://site1.myhostname | 00:21 |
| mfive | The probleml is - they only work in the browser of my ubuntu machine. My laptop is on the same network, and if I do http://myserverhostname, I can see the /var/www contents, but if I do http://site1.myserverhostname, I get an error from my IP with their default "search" page | 00:22 |

| mfive | my ISP just has a default search page for when it doesn't recognize the TLD or website | 00:25 |
| mfive | It's a Time Warner RoadRunner page | 00:25 |

| genii | chrisTKC: Even if it is, it won't upgrade to 64bit from a 32bit initial dist | 00:25 |
| nsadmin | can you watch your access log and error log? | 00:25 |
| chrisTKC | genii, Right. I'm hoping he know his machine are capable of it... and not just because 64 sounds more powerful than 32. :) | 00:26 |
| chrisTKC | mfive, At least, try "http://site1.<actual-ip>" | 00:26 |
| mfive | Not sure what you mean by that. I'm still learning the ropes of ubuntu | 00:26 |

| mfive | and been running great | 00:32 |
| nsadmin | well 192.168.* are not routable IPs | 00:32 |

| === libertiy|away is now known as libertiy | ||

| SpaceCowboy40404 | external ip and nothing works | 00:36 |
| techhelper1 | the external ventrilo works for sure... | 00:36 |
| Halitech | mfive, you could use the DNS tool of your domain hosting company to create a sub-domain and point it to a dyndns address which will point to your server | 00:37 |

| techhelper1 | according to your ip which i got from your hostname | 00:39 |
| techhelper1 | i found out that ventrilo does not work on the outside | 00:39 |
| techhelper1 | you would likely need a port scan to see if something like that is their | 00:39 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | hiexpo: not with ventrilo but with either my router or ubuntu | 00:39 |
| techhelper1 | and allowed by all ip's not the internal network | 00:39 |

| poi77 | Hi! I am using 9.10 and encountering an odd problem. I change the password but it seems to be reverting after a reboot. Why and is this a cause for concern? | 00:41 |
| Fishscene | You need to "port forward" or setup an application on the router to forward the vent port to your vent server. | 00:41 |
| techhelper1 | Fishscene he did but it isn't being allowed | 00:41 |
| techhelper1 | oh SpaceCowboy40404 you probably need to restart your router | 00:42 |
| chrisTKC | poi77, Are you using a LiveCD? o.O | 00:42 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | i opened 3784 on the firewall and forwaded 3784 tcp/udp to this laptops ip addy of xxx.102 | 00:42 |
| kaolbrec | When creating a shortcut to a java application, (a .jar file) is it possible to specify which jvm to use? | 00:42 |

| mfive | for this domain name | 00:42 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | restarting router... brb | 00:43 |
| Fishscene | Spacecowboy: Is this on a home connection? It's also possible that your ISP is blocking the port... but let's rule out everything else first. | 00:43 |
| Halitech | mfive, so you would need to create a sub-domain and then direct it to either a dyndns hostname or your ip address | 00:43 |
| carlitos | hola putos | 00:43 |
| mfive | halitech, that would work, but it won't allow me to direct it to a virtualhost subdomain | 00:44 |
| mfive | i don't want the subdomain of my domain to point to the root of my webserver | 00:44 |
| mfive | does that make sense? i hope I'm using the right terminology | 00:44 |
| nsadmin | mfive: if you put the subdomains to the same IP address, then the web server has to differentiate based on the name it sees in the browser request headers | 00:45 |
| poi77 | Hi! I am am having an odd problem. I tried changing my password using gui in 9.10 and the change reverted after a reboot. Why and is this a cause for concern? | 00:45 |
| Halitech | mfive, in the apache conf you should be able to set it up that if a request comes in for site1.<subdomain.com> to be redirected to a specific folder | 00:45 |
| mfive | i think that part is over my head | 00:46 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | ok router reset and no difference | 00:46 |

| Halitech | mfive, ok, so you need to create a dyndns account to point to the server, then in the site-enabled conf file, put the same account name that you created with dyndns account | 00:52 |
| techhelper1 | an alternative os to the linksys firmware | 00:52 |
| techhelper1 | a geeks control to a router you can say | 00:52 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | oh so its similar ti hyprwrt then | 00:52 |
| hiexpo | firmware for that router | 00:52 |
| techhelper1 | and openwrt and so on | 00:52 |
| techhelper1 | yah | 00:52 |
| techhelper1 | i like dd-wrt on my router | 00:52 |
| hiexpo | what version is it | 00:52 |
| wildbat | hi, | 00:52 |
| nsadmin | can you get wrts with more ram? | 00:53 |
| techhelper1 | latest | 00:53 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | 2.0 last i checked it was the most current | 00:53 |
| mfive | halitech, ok, i'm logged into dyndns right now. do you know what service it's called that I need to set up? is it in My Zones / Domains or My Hosts? | 00:53 |
| nsadmin | and more storage? | 00:53 |
| techhelper1 | they don't make it anymore | 00:53 |
| hiexpo | yes | 00:53 |
| powertool08 | Does anyone know of a linux rdp client which supports nla connections to server 2008? | 00:53 |
| techhelper1 | the wrt54g | 00:53 |
| Halitech | mfive, I think its under my hosts | 00:53 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | what the heck: Port 3784 is closed on 72.198.24.88 | 00:53 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | how is that possible | 00:53 |
| Fishscene | ISP might be blocking the port. | 00:53 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | lemme check that.. i work for the isp | 00:54 |
| Neo-- | lol | 00:54 |
| techhelper1 | SpaceCowboy40404: what is the First 4 digits/letters of your serial on the router | 00:54 |
| techhelper1 | i can find the version | 00:54 |
| techhelper1 | of your router | 00:54 |
| mfive | halitech, hostname wants to give me a subdomain of something like dnsalias.org, that's not what I want, correct? | 00:54 |
| Fishscene | If everything is correct on your end (router forwards the tcp/udp port to the proper internal IP address, then that's where my money is at. | 00:54 |
| wildbat | anyone know if there is tools for batch changing/converting codepage(e.g. BIG5, JS, GB) and encode (UTF8, unicode-16, ASCII)? | 00:54 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | wait it wouldnt work for the windows machine if my isp was blocking | 00:54 |
| Halitech | mfive, yes, thats the right spot | 00:54 |
| techhelper1 | and then install dd-wrt and see if linksys is having the problem | 00:54 |
| xavier_ | Is that UBUNTU channel or HACKING channel? | 00:54 |
| Fishscene | It works for your Windows machine externally? | 00:54 |
| techhelper1 | run the website on the windows computer then | 00:54 |
| nsadmin | mfive do you have a static IP? | 00:54 |
| hiexpo | hope its under ver 4 | 00:54 |
| mfive | halitech ok, i've got it set up pointing to my external IP address | 00:54 |
| techhelper1 | and see what you get | 00:54 |
| mfive | no, I do not | 00:55 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | yes works fine for windows externally | 00:55 |
| kaolbrec | Can I specify which java to use in a shortcut to a .jar file? | 00:55 |
| mfive | nsadmin, I have a static local ip address. not a static ip address from my ISP though | 00:55 |
| cbilljones | Hi im having an issue with video signal dropping over HDMI, using zotac board, nvidia ion chipset; using 195 drivers, any ideas? | 00:55 |
| xavier_ | SpaceCowboy40404: I would not give this info to techhelper1 | 00:55 |
| tic^ | SpaceCowboy40404: do you have a friend you can borrow another router from? | 00:55 |
| nsadmin | and you want to be reliably contacted from outside? | 00:55 |
| cbilljones | also connecting to a sharp aqous 52 | 00:55 |
| iflema | wget www.whatismyip.com/automation/n09230945.asp -O - -o /dev/null | more | 00:55 |
| Fishscene | Your router doesn't destinguish whether the source/destination computers are running what OS. It only cares about routing. Might want to investigate your linux box that can't connect then. | 00:55 |
| techhelper1 | well if the windows computer can do it | 00:56 |
| stillme | pls do i have to install ATI driver for my ubuntu?? what do i gain by doing so?? thanks | 00:56 |
| Halitech | stillme, what ati video card? | 00:56 |
| techhelper1 | SpaceCowboy40404: it is something on the port forward and how you got it | 00:56 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | tic: no but i can remove the router and go straight cable modem and then connect on another laptop via sprint wireless card | 00:56 |
| techhelper1 | since it only allows your internal network | 00:56 |
| stillme | ATI 2500 | 00:56 |
| mfive | nsadmin, I'm not sure what you're getting at, can't I use an update client | 00:57 |
| techhelper1 | so it is with the router ^ according to that SpaceCowboy40404 | 00:57 |
| nsadmin | sure, you could do that | 00:57 |
| Halitech | stillme, radeon HD2500? | 00:57 |
| mfive | nsadmin, so that would be my temporary sollution until i get a static ip from my ISP | 00:57 |
| hiexpo | the router has to be firmwared i have worked all the linksys routers no other way | 00:57 |
| stillme | no i meant ATI X1250 | 00:57 |
| Halitech | stillme, running ubuntu 9.04 or higher? | 00:58 |
| wildbat | anyone know if there is tools for batch changing/converting codepage(e.g. BIG5, JS, GB) and encoding (UTF8, unicode-16, ASCII) for text file? | 00:58 |
| nsadmin | is a static IP what you want? or do you want a web site on a remote host? | 00:58 |
| nada | how are you?? | 00:58 |
| techhelper1 | SpaceCowboy40404: what is the 1st 4 digits of the sn | 00:58 |
| techhelper1 | that way i can determin the version | 00:58 |
| techhelper1 | http://www.dslreports.com/faq/12772 | 00:58 |
| stillme | am running ubuntu 9.04 | 00:58 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | techhelper1: they saud not to give you that info? | 00:58 |
| Halitech | mfive, another option would be to register a new domain and use zone edit to point to your ubuntu server | 00:58 |
| techhelper1 | well go to that link and look at the 1st few characters of the serial number | 00:59 |
| Halitech | stillme, then you have only the open source driver to use, there is no support from ati for that card | 00:59 |
| hiexpo | thats not gonna do anything SpaceCowboy40404 | 00:59 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | ok getting it then | 00:59 |
| techhelper1 | and tell me the version of your router then i can help you install dd-wrt | 00:59 |
| mfive | halitech, I'm down with that. I have a spare domain name I can use. but I'm not familiar with zone edit | 00:59 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | just a sec | 00:59 |
| techhelper1 | ok | 00:59 |
| techhelper1 | ty | 00:59 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | quick question: how change recursively the ower and group of a directory? | 00:59 |
| nsadmin | if you're going to register a domain, you need someone to pull DNS duty for it | 00:59 |
| Halitech | mfive, zoneedit.com I think, you can register for free and control the zone info for up to 5 domains for free | 01:00 |
| bastid_raZor | rafaelsoaresbr: chown -r owner:group directory | 01:00 |
| ikthus | chown -r | 01:00 |
| stillme | Halitech, i use the system for blender, and the interface really drags | 01:00 |
| ikthus | bastid_raZor, u blasted me :p | 01:00 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | 3321 | 01:00 |
| Halitech | stillme, laptop or desktop? | 01:00 |
| nsadmin | rafaelsoaresbr, chown (but NOTE, this is a DANGEROUS command) | 01:00 |
| stillme | laptop | 01:00 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | oops thats last 4 hang on a sec | 01:00 |
| Typos_King | rafaelsoaresbr: chown -r OWNER:GROUP FILESTODOHERE; | 01:00 |
| Halitech | nsadmin, thats what zone edit can do | 01:00 |
| Halitech | stillme, ok, out of luck then | 01:00 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | CDF5 | 01:00 |
| techhelper1 | you have a WRT54G v2.0 / ADM6996L Chipset / CPU 200Mhz | 01:01 |
| ikthus | rafaelsoaresbr, chow -r user@group /your/path | 01:01 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | ok | 01:01 |
| joscht | when i try to record my compiz desktop to show my friends there are always black bars does someone know why? | 01:01 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | bastid_raZor, nsadmin, Typos_King: I want to change the owner of /var/spool/squid to "squid:squid" | 01:01 |
| hiexpo | good router | 01:01 |
| nsadmin | Halitech: zone edit can be an experienced domain admin person running dns servers on very well-connected net pipes? | 01:01 |
| ikthus | rafaelsoaresbr, chow -r user@group /var/spool/squid | 01:01 |
| stillme | ohh | 01:01 |
| bastid_raZor | rafaelsoaresbr: prepend with sudo | 01:01 |
| nsadmin | ikonia, let | 01:02 |
| Halitech | nsadmin, I used it as a newbie running on a cable connection | 01:02 |
| ikthus | with sudo off curze | 01:02 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | am i supposed to do something with info techhelper1? | 01:02 |
| nsadmin | ikonia, lets be more cautious :) cd there first | 01:02 |
| ikthus | feuk | 01:02 |
| techhelper1 | hold on i am looking up the instructions | 01:02 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | oh ok | 01:02 |
| mac_linux | Hello everyone, quick question. Is it possible to successfully install linux, however experience erratic behavior do to a corrupt installation disk? | 01:02 |
| hiexpo | no hes probally getting dd wrt stuff | 01:02 |
| techhelper1 | follow this article SpaceCowboy40404 http://dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Linksys_WRT54G_v2.0 | 01:03 |
| joscht | when i try to record my compiz desktop to show my friends there are always black bars does someone know why? | 01:03 |
| nsadmin | I could have gotten a wrt54g from frys... should I have? | 01:03 |
| hiexpo | SpaceCowboy40404, make sure you follow the instructions to the doted i's or you will brick it | 01:03 |
| Fishscene | mac_linux: I wouldn't rule it out, but it's unlikely that it is the cause. What do you mean by "erratic" behavior? | 01:03 |
| Typos_King | mac_linux: the installation disk is .... what? what is the question again? | 01:03 |
| _pg_ | mac_linux: i think so | 01:03 |
| mfive | halitech, i'm looking into this right now. thanks so much for your help | 01:03 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | bastid_raZor, nsadmin, Typos_King: invalid option 'r'... | 01:04 |
| Halitech | mfive, no problem, hope it works for you | 01:04 |
| techhelper1 | under the How To Flash section of it | 01:04 |
| bastid_raZor | rafaelsoaresbr: -R | 01:04 |
| Typos_King | rafaelsoaresbr: chown -R OWNER:GROUP FILESTODOHERE; | 01:04 |
| hiexpo | nsadmin, depends on model and version there not all good | 01:04 |
| Typos_King | heheh | 01:04 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | before i try that im going to remove the router and connect this pc straight to the cable modem and then see if i can connect to it from another laptop using a sprint wireless card | 01:04 |
| techhelper1 | SpaceCowboy40404: ^ | 01:04 |
| techhelper1 | ok | 01:04 |
| tic^ | the wrt54g i had would have been more useful for me. | 01:05 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | that should tell us if its a router issue for sure, right? | 01:05 |
| techhelper1 | yes | 01:05 |
| tic^ | as a brick | 01:05 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | bastid_raZor, nsadmin, Typos_King: okay, that worked, thanks | 01:05 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | brb | 01:05 |
| nsadmin | I would do it with a root shell personally, it's a bit safer | 01:05 |
| mac_linux | I've successfully installed linux on my powerpc g4, however, it gets warm and shuts down sometime. No one else i've talked to had this problem with my version of ubuntu (9.4) so i'm wondering if it's the disk. | 01:05 |
| techhelper1 | if you change the software to the dd-wrt it could ellimiate the software on the router itself having the problem | 01:05 |
| Halitech | mac_linux, dirty heatsink? dying drive? | 01:06 |
| hiexpo | tic^, lol | 01:06 |
| nsadmin | I have a wap that's probably 54g | 01:06 |
| lastelement0 | hey all i'm facing an issue with 9.10 64bit with downloads and them just stalling in the middle of them. but i can still browse the internet have IM convos, etc. any thoughts as to what to do? | 01:06 |
| Fishscene | Sounds like an overheating problem. I'd dust out the machine first, then look into seeing whether Ubuntu has high processor usage. | 01:06 |
| Scarra3 | Hey I can't find the daily build of ubuntu 10.04 lts | 01:06 |
| nsadmin | it's got power and one eth | 01:06 |
| hiexpo | !lucid | 01:06 |
| 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 | 01:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | Scarra3, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ | 01:06 |
| mac_linux | Honestly, Halitech, I'm not sure. CPU usage would go very high at times. Can't seem to pinpoint why. | 01:07 |
| Halitech | mac_linux, open "top" and see what it tells you | 01:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | Scarra3, RC is released tomorrow BTW | 01:07 |
| hiexpo | one should use 32 bit on 64 bit system runs better | 01:07 |
| mac_linux | I have ruled out hardware because i'm able to install os x fine...no shutdowns. | 01:07 |
| joscht | when i try to record my compiz desktop to show my friends there are always black bars does someone know why? | 01:07 |
| Halitech | mac_linux, can you boot from the live cd and run memtest with no issues? | 01:08 |
| mac_linux | haven't tried that... | 01:08 |
| Fishscene | mac_linux: I'd still dust out the machine first, then check "task manager"? to see what processes are spiking the CPU usage. | 01:08 |
| colorlessprism | ZykoticK9, are you a week ahead | 01:08 |
| mac_linux | would "livecd" accurately reflect this? | 01:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, no RC = release candidate | 01:09 |
| Halitech | mac_linux, it should | 01:09 |
| crlsgms | where is postgresql bin folder? | 01:09 |
| lastelement0 | hey all i'm facing an issue with 9.10 64bit with downloads and them just stalling in the middle of them. but i can still browse the internet have IM convos, etc. any thoughts as to what to do? | 01:09 |
| mac_linux | Cool...worth a try. | 01:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidLynxSchedule | 01:09 |
| nada | hi every body ^^ | 01:09 |
| colorlessprism | ZykoticK9, my bad, i was secretly hoping i had false info... | 01:09 |
| colorlessprism | nada, hello | 01:10 |
| mac_linux | memtest tests ram right? | 01:10 |
| Halitech | mac_linux, yes | 01:10 |
| nada | i first time join this chat | 01:10 |
| colorlessprism | why does xchat have spot in notification area but Thunderbird does not? | 01:11 |
| mac_linux | hmm...well, i doubt it is the issue, again since my mac is working fine with os x. | 01:11 |
| mac_linux | but i'll try. | 01:11 |
| Typos_King | colorlessprism: check Thunderbird settings, it might be off I'd think | 01:11 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | now squid is working. another question: how to disable logging? | 01:12 |
| Halitech | mac_linux, I've seen issues pop up in windows but not linux and vice versa so just because one OS works doesn't mean another will | 01:12 |
| colorlessprism | Typos_King, its just not there | 01:12 |
| colorlessprism | Typos_King, had to use kdocker, but i get an ugly white box around it. evo does not dock either | 01:12 |
| mac_linux | ok...i'll try it. i may report back later. Thank you! | 01:13 |
| Typos_King | colorlessprism: ... they load to the tray only if the app is programmed so, so | 01:13 |
| colorlessprism | Typos_King, somewthing about new rules, i just cant beleive there is not a mail client that can minimise to notification area by default | 01:14 |
| cbilljones | Im having an issue with nvidia driver, it wont save to config file | 01:14 |
| Wild_Doogy | cbilljones: I think you need to be root to do that | 01:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | cbilljones, "gksu nvidia-settings" or are you getting the parse error? | 01:14 |
| Wild_Doogy | I remember solving that by running nvidia-settings as root | 01:14 |
| cbilljones | zykotick9: getting parse error | 01:15 |
| janelle | my beta install will upgrade to final yes? | 01:15 |
| janelle | beta 2 that is | 01:15 |
| Typos_King | colorlessprism: .. ? there probably are... knode or kmail.... dunno, I'm not running either, so :) | 01:15 |

| ZykoticK9 | cbilljones, see http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/nvidia-settings-issue-karmic | 01:15 |
| colorlessprism | Typos_King, im just complaining, i used evolution, and then changed to tbird for rss feeds but neither dock like they used to back in 8.04 | 01:16 |
| cbilljones | Zykotick9: srry, actually im getting "Unable to open X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' for writing." | 01:16 |
| ZykoticK9 | cbilljones, see the same link | 01:17 |
| cbilljones | zykotick9: doing now, update in a moment | 01:17 |
| Halitech | cbilljones, probably doesn't exist by default, you can create it manually though | 01:17 |
| Typos_King | colorlessprism: just checked in Kmail, it has 'enable system tray icon', is just not enabled by default, soo :P | 01:18 |
| colorlessprism | kamil work on ubuntu? | 01:19 |
| cbilljones | zykotick9: no change still getting error | 01:19 |
| janelle | anyone know for sure if you can just update from lucid beta 2 all the way to final I assume you can but want to be sure | 01:19 |
| Typos_King | colorlessprism: well, I'm on kubuntu, but it should install in ubuntu, sure | 01:19 |
| Halitech | cbilljones, sudo touch /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 01:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | cbilljones, can't explain that then. Good luck man. | 01:19 |
| Halitech | colorlessprism, yes but it will install a bunch of KDE dependencies along with it | 01:19 |
| Typos_King | colorlessprism: it'll just load a few extra kde libs that it wouldn't on a kubuntu install ^_^ | 01:20 |
| colorlessprism | Typos_King, yes i use ubuntu but kdocker works much better than alltray | 01:20 |
| colorlessprism | Typos_King, thanks | 01:20 |
| === rsc____ is now known as rsc___ | ||
| cbilljones | halitech: ran that, still no change | 01:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | cbilljones, you are using "gksu nvidia-settings" rather then the icon in the menu right? | 01:22 |
| Typos_King | janelle: you 'can' sure, you 'can' jump off a cliff too, if you wish, being able to do something and it being practical are not really mutually inclusive, soooo, I'd suggest instead to do a full-install wheneve possible | 01:22 |
| Halitech | cbilljones, so you created the file and then ragksudo nvidia-settings ? | 01:22 |
| vocx | Typos_King, Halitech do you know how much disk space are the basic kdelibs? I think installing 50 MB isn't that much, but if the basic QT libraries were 100 MB or more, then I would consider that | 01:22 |
| nada | Bye....I'm going to sleep | 01:22 |
| cbilljones | zykotick9: yes, using gksu nvidia-settings | 01:22 |
| _Ba_ | hi, I cant install ALSA driver on ubuntu 10.4 | 01:22 |

| Pici | _Ba_ : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion. | 01:23 |

| colorlessprism | anyone been having a problem with lanuchpad not updating karma? | 01:23 |
| Wild_Doogy | albert king + steve ray vaughan | 01:23 |

| Wild_Doogy | lol, sorry, wrong window :-\ | 01:23 |
| TravisAlan | Could someone please remind me of the Ubuntu general chat channel? | 01:24 |
| Typos_King | vocx: I don't think there are many, I run some gnome apps, and the installation, in apt-get it shows before you go ahead, wasn't that big really, around 10mbs or so at the most | 01:24 |
| TravisAlan | the one for off-topic talk...? | 01:24 |
| colorlessprism | ZykoticK9, i have done a lot on launchapd since i registered 03/21 and its still zero | 01:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, what you don't include your IRC nic in your LP details ;) | 01:24 |
| Pici | TravisAlan: #ubuntu-offtopic | 01:24 |
| TravisAlan | ty | 01:24 |
| TravisAlan | sorry for the disturbance | 01:25 |
| Halitech | vocx, mark it in Synaptic and see what it wants to include and how much additional space it wants to use, can cancel if its too much | 01:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, not everything gets karma - what have you been doing? | 01:25 |
| Typos_King | vocx: I use gnome network manager for one, installed files were just 2.3mbs | 01:25 |
| janelle | thank you for the reply Typos_King, but not for the smart ass remark | 01:25 |
| colorlessprism | ZykoticK9, answereing questions mostly, actually getting credit for a few | 01:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, questions should be giving karma for sure! | 01:26 |
| vocx | Halitech, I'm just thinking about other users which are mislead into thinking that just because one app is "for KDE" (uses QT), that is not a reason no to install it in your gnome desktop, and vice versa | 01:26 |
| Typos_King | janelle: I'm just saying hehe, updater beware | 01:26 |
| colorlessprism | ZykoticK9, im getting nothing | 01:26 |
| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, perhaps ask in #launchpad (or similar) then | 01:26 |
| colorlessprism | ZykoticK9, thanks | 01:27 |
| colorlessprism | ZykoticK9, now what did you mean by launchpad details and IRC? | 01:27 |
| Halitech | vocx, got ya, I run xfce and I use a few gtk apps and a few qt apps, avidemux being one that looks better in qt then gtk | 01:27 |
| Typos_King | vocx: I think those arguments aren't really that accurate, many apps just require this or that lib from this or that package, but not necessarily the whole package | 01:27 |
| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, i went searching for you in LP but couldn't find you with colorlessprism | 01:27 |
| colorlessprism | ZykoticK9, oohh, you have to "details" me on here my bad | 01:28 |
| Typos_King | vocx: if you install with apt-get install, it tells you exactly who/how many/which/what sizes/how big once installed/ is going to get, and you can assess from there | 01:28 |
| === magic_ninja420 is now known as magic_ninja | ||
| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, well if you search ZykoticK9 on LP you'll find my account - on the details page there is a place to put your IRC nic (it's a good idea to do so, helps out from time to time) | 01:29 |

| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, you might have another issue as well - you do have your IRC details on LP - but searching "colorlessprism" gives no results, strange | 01:31 |
| hanasaki | what's the name of the 3D panel bar like the Mac has | 01:31 |
| Typos_King | janelle: yes you can, but often times the update doesn't go as smooth as one wishes, and thus is better to back yourself up before doing so, for backups, is better to have them and no need them than need them and not have them, sooo, is recommended instead to do full-install and your chances of success are greater :) | 01:31 |
| colorlessprism | ZykoticK9, i thought i had details on there....i wonder whats going on then... | 01:32 |
| vocx | Typos_King, janelle, not a problem with upgrading since Ubuntu 6.10... just saying | 01:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, certainly ask in the lp channel, mind you they'll probably tell you to ask a question on LP / Answers (a common answer in that channel unfortunately) | 01:32 |
| Typos_King | vocx: all poodles are dogs, but not all dogs are poodles ^_^ | 01:33 |
| colorlessprism | ZykoticK9, ive asked in the channel, but no response. i guess ill post on launchpad then. thanks man | 01:33 |

| Typos_King | colorlessprism: you know that dumping an app to the systray, provides you with an icon but not with a notification, like say, inbox mails or new rss feeds arriving, I mean, I use iceWM and I can drop any window to tray heheh, won't give me a notified icon though | 01:37 |
| juaneldebla_ | no | 01:37 |
| mneptok | ikthus: Ingles. solamente. | 01:37 |
| ikthus | caillate | 01:37 |
| vocx | GodfatherofEire, well, then you need to formulate a more specific question, and post some errors and stuff. Saying it doesn't work is of no use. | 01:38 |
| colorlessprism | Typos_King, kdocker allowed for popup messages, but i hadnt noticed the icon did not change, i check on this addon and see | 01:38 |
| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, just an FYI - the Ubuntu install will allow you to install Grub onto external USB devices (not by default obviously, you need to specify) without having to remove the internal HD (but that is a safe way to do it) | 01:39 |
| GodfatherofEire | vocx: http://pastebin.com/YhgXnZRT | 01:39 |
| Losha | GodfatherofEire: why aren't you installing Tor from binaries? | 01:40 |
| colorlessprism | ZykoticK9, checking up on me i see, yeah i made the mistake once of not paying attention to an install...i find its easier most times to just have them unplug a drive | 01:40 |
| midijake | I have lost all the titlebars and I cannot drag to resize windows... can I fix this? | 01:40 |
| GodfatherofEire | Losha, none of the installs worked | 01:40 |
| juaneldebla_ | anyone knows that will not let me remove the cd | 01:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, actually i'd read that earlier as well :) | 01:40 |
| Losha | GodfatherofEire: which os release are you running? | 01:41 |
| Typos_King | midijake: this happens after you login? | 01:41 |
| GodfatherofEire | Losha, 10.04, but I /think/ I had also tried it on 9.10 or 9.04 | 01:41 |
| midijake | well.. yes.. it was working fine and suddenly they are gone | 01:41 |
| lint_ | i have a questtion, how xcan i mark a .exe file as executable in ubuntu? | 01:42 |
| Typos_King | juaneldebla: come again? | 01:42 |
| vocx | GodfatherofEire, Well, that is a very generic error. I guess it doesn't find the library for some reason. Aaaah, you are using 10.04, you know that libraries might still be out of sync? | 01:42 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | for those that were helping me with my ventrilo and router issue.... when i remove the router from the equation and hook this ubuntu laptop straight to the modem, people can connect to the server just fine from external ip's | 01:42 |
| Losha | GodfatherofEire: 10.04 support is on #ubuntu+1. For what it's worth, I successfully installed Tor using http://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | 01:42 |
| Lynn^_^ | I tried rebooting yesterday and got the message "verifying dmi pool" and it got stuck there. I haven't opened the computer lately, so no change in hardware, something seems corrupt, but not sure where to start | 01:42 |
| Typos_King | lint_: chmod a+x FILEHERE; | 01:42 |

| ZykoticK9 | midijake, "compiz --replace" for compiz or "metacity --replace" for Gnome default | 01:51 |

| midijake | ok will try | 01:55 |
| midijake | after I do how do I exit that terminal? | 01:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | midijake, sorry thought you used alt+f2 | 01:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | midijake, you'd need to run "nohup metacity --replace &" in order to be able to close the terminal afterwards | 01:56 |
| midijake | not yet... I will but how do I get out of it after? | 01:56 |

| intrader | Gnea: I am recommending that one should not install 9.10 because of the UI problems. Sorry for the confusion. | 02:21 |
| Gnea | intrader: also, your wording is a bit odd... you mention installing it "on top" of 9.04, does that mean you did a whole format to / and /home or what? | 02:21 |
| vocx | FriedrichMan, protocols. Programs use protocols to communicate. Programs know. That's it. | 02:21 |
| intrader | Gnea: a full format of / and /home | 02:21 |

| nsahoo | is there a command that I can use to enable desktop sharing of a remote computer? | 02:23 |
| FriedrichMan | vocx: so that means the aMSN checks for the ports the different chat clients use and regarding on which ports it has to listen to... what client it is? | 02:23 |
| intrader | Gnea: yes, I had to install clean as in November an ubgrade to 9.04 led me to the same problems in 9.10 with the UI | 02:23 |

| Gnea | Ben201: sounds like a clamav-specific issue, check out #clamav please | 02:24 |
| Ben201 | ok thanks | 02:24 |
| vocx | FriedrichMan, I don't think that's accurate. I think each client announces itself. It tells the other clients which protocols it speaks. Why thinking about ports? | 02:24 |
| Gnea | intrader: okay, you may want to edit your post to reflect that fact | 02:25 |
| intrader | Gnea: I mentioned it at the end sorry. | 02:25 |
| FriedrichMan | vocx: well I thought that's what you meant when you said protocols | 02:25 |
| FriedrichMan | i mean... is there a way to figure this out if you don't have aMSN? | 02:25 |
| Gnea | intrader: no problem. have you upgraded the nvidia driver at all or still using the default nv? | 02:26 |
| intrader | Gnea: I will be back - my wife calls me with dinner, sorry | 02:26 |

| marcio_ | or cay I use another language? | 02:38 |
| vocx | Dr_Willis, Ah, I always forget. I think there is also something in the kernel to limit a single process size to 2 GB. | 02:38 |
| nsadmin | the primary dns doesn't seem to have records for the domain | 02:38 |
| marcio_ | or can I use another language? | 02:38 |
| Losha | marcio_: just English here. But there are other channels. What language do you prefer? | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | vocx: im refering to how the system reserves a bit of ram for various hardware/vide/other cards/devices. that will take away from that 4gb also. ive seen up to 1/2 a gb reserved for that befor. | 02:39 |

| rujasu | Hi, I really have no idea what component is causing this problem, but when browsing the web, I'm getting random redirects pretty often. If I try to do a google search, it will go to stumbleupon, or some random site and put up an error page. it's like the DNS is resolving to random sites instead of the one it's supposed to, and it's really hard to track. | 02:46 |
| nsadmin | well I think you should contact the dns hoster to get their idea of what's next | 02:46 |
| rujasu | I've tried changing the DNS servers though. | 02:46 |
| rujasu | Doesn't seem to do anything. | 02:46 |
| Dr_Willis | try changeing dns servers to some free ones like googles and the same results? | 02:46 |

| Dr_Willis | You sure its using the new dns servers? | 02:47 |
| IdleOne | marcio_: /join #ubuntu-br | 02:47 |
| mfive | nsadmin, just read their FAQ. They won't make the changegs until the nameservers are set (which might take a little while) | 02:47 |

| grendal_prime | abahkaiyisah: the default network nat should handle that | 03:26 |

| randomusr_ | wyclif, are you the original owner? Has it run Windows fine? | 04:05 |
| Gnea | intrader: don't know what you mean by 'red ink', maybe it is when someone talks direct to you like this | 04:05 |
| wyclif | randomusr_: it's run *everything* fine before | 04:05 |
| charles__ | pirate install splash sceeen in synaptic package manager ... gnome-splashscreen-manager | 04:06 |
| randomusr_ | wyclif; you shold burn an iso of system rescue cd and check the hard drive, and maybe run memtest | 04:06 |
| Dezine | I installed Ubuntu (after windows 7), it recognized windows during the install but it's not in the boot manager. | 04:06 |
| wyclif | randomusr_: I ran memtest a few minutes ago, also tried using help on the CD, maybe I will have to bust out the Knoppix later? | 04:06 |
| randomusr_ | wyclif, also, you may want to attempt installing Karmic with the alternate cd | 04:06 |
| andruk | why does nautilus do this: http://img101.imageshack.us/i/screenshotmusicfilebrow.png/ ? | 04:06 |
| charles__ | wyclif ... do memtest and hard drive test from drive manufacture | 04:07 |
| wyclif | randomusr_: alternate CD? | 04:07 |
| intrader | Gnea: my ignorance shows; I have seen your responses as starting with my login in red, and the rest in black. How do you talk direct? | 04:07 |
| red2kic_ | Hello World! I know this -- Minimal-ISO + Server-ISO enlists you with tasksel option. Does Alternative-ISO do the same? | 04:07 |
| wyclif | charles__: I've already done those, no errors | 04:07 |

| wyclif | randomusr_ here's a question: when I set my BIOS settings to boot from the CD, after I eject the disc and reboot do I have to reset BIOS to "boot from HDD" | 04:09 |
| maco | intrader: you figured it out. just say the person's name | 04:10 |
| randomusr_ | wyclif, no as long as the cd is out. This is more of a convenience feature than overall functionality | 04:10 |
| wyclif | randomusr_: for some reason I can't reset the boot order in BIOS settings | 04:10 |
| charles__ | wyclif ... you can try .... install on another computer to get setup .... then use gparted to copy to the laptop drive and see if it works | 04:10 |

| mac_linux | Hello everybody...I had ubuntu fully installed on my powerbook g4 1.33 GHz. I took it off because my cpu would go to 100%, fans would go on, and it would shut down. This doesn't happen apparently with the Ubuntu LiveCD. Any ideas as to what is wrong? | 04:13 |
| randomusr_ | charles_; ok then | 04:13 |
| randomusr_ | necrogami, this isn't network support but what's up? | 04:14 |
| intrader | Gnea: what can be done about testing the problem I have? The 'mouse preferences' definetely shows a behavior difference with the click on the lamp. | 04:14 |

| ubuntu | mac_linux, is xorg using the most cpu time? | 04:15 |
| Losha | ubuntu: I don't see why you couldn't edit fstab and then use the swapon command to make use of a swap partition (or swap file) while running the live cd... | 04:15 |

| CloudLevi | Randomusr_: Yes, but it costs money | 04:16 |

| CloudLevi | IdleOne: Cross your fingers, I'm at my wit's end... | 04:19 |
| randomusr_ | necrogami, is the gateway 10.0.0.1 correct? did you forward the appropriate ports? did this work in the past? | 04:19 |
| switch10_ | Name141: sudo apt-get purge firefox will remove the browser | 04:20 |
| necrogami | randomusr_: yes and yes | 04:20 |
| charles__ | name141 .... just disable internet | 04:20 |
| tumenjargal | #php | 04:20 |
| mac_linux | Oh well, I'll try again some other time. | 04:20 |
| Name141 | charles__: Would that still let her access the MP3s on my computer/the rest of the network ? | 04:20 |
| randomusr_ | necrogami, did it work in the past? | 04:20 |

When it is in the mode of tracking the mouse, I can click any where in the buttons in bottom of the window or anywhete. I have to stop the scrollbar by clicking on the scroll button with the right mouse | 04:21 |
| charles__ | name141 .... disable internet all networking | 04:21 |
| randomusr_ | necrogami, it's definitely something in the router | 04:21 |
| necrogami | randomusr_: no | 04:21 |
| xangua | not without knowing the wifi driver lyhana8 | 04:21 |

| randomusr_ | necrogami, are you attempting to get to your apache home page? | 04:22 |
| IdleOne | Name141: create a user without sudo privs and remove firefox but that will also remove it entirely preventing you from having a browser | 04:22 |
| switch10_ | Name141: that would be the easy way.. | 04:22 |
| necrogami | randomusr_: lighttpd but yes. | 04:22 |
| Name141 | hiexpo: There is no password on the modem. | 04:22 |
| charles__ | name141 .... go to users and disable the unwanted access ... such as internet | 04:22 |

| viking667 | hey there. Got a question ... I'm trying to rearrange grub onto another disk that I will then make into the first drive in the system. Currently it's the second disk. Does grub support a UUID option? (1.x) | 04:24 |

| intrader | Gnea: something curious. Now that the USB is back, the computer's trackpoint and mouse seem much better. However, all the bad behavior is now in the USB. This looks like the is a stack of listeners and the USB changed position when I unplugged before and the plug it again. | 04:25 |
| Losha | queso: but between apt-get and aptitude there are no important differences.... | 04:25 |
| xangua | lyhana8: you mean you have new kernels¿¿ then try with the previous one | 04:25 |
| queso | switch10_: my question is in reference to the difference between apt-get and aptitude | 04:25 |
| queso | Losha: thx | 04:25 |
| IdleOne | queso: the differences between apt-get and aptitude are small | 04:25 |
| queso | Losha, IdleOne: why are there two different commands, then? | 04:26 |
| switch10_ | queso: they are 2 different package managers. use whichever one you want | 04:26 |
| Losha | viking667: grub1 supports UUID... | 04:27 |
| lyhana8 | xangua, any way to check what is wrong first ? | 04:27 |
| ZykoticK9 | IdleOne, i used to think so too - i still prefer apt-get (BUT under a development release, "aptitude safe-upgrade" is crucial) | 04:27 |
| IdleOne | queso: aptitude is a front end to apt-get and handles dependencies a little differently but basically they do the same job | 04:27 |
| * isaac_ namastes | 04:27 | |
| switch10_ | i prefer apt-get as well... | 04:27 |
| randomusr_ | necrogami, pastebin the output of route | 04:27 |

| racerd | silentdis: what up? so what do i need to do? | 05:20 |
| SilentDis | !beta | grendal_prime | 05:20 |
| ubottu | grendal_prime: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Lucid. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. | 05:20 |
| Out_Cold | David-T, you can configure it however you like.. ati temps usage, disk usage and so on | 05:20 |
| SilentDis | stupid ubottu :P | 05:21 |
| SilentDis | !lucid | grendal_prime | 05:21 |
| ubottu | grendal_prime: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule | 05:21 |

| Name141 | Besides disconnect the floppy drive. | 05:22 |
| SilentDis | !pulse | racerd | 05:22 |
| ubottu | racerd: PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 05:22 |
| scunizi | Name141: you have a floppy disk? unplug it.. :) | 05:23 |
| racerd | that is the default ubuntu driver right? | 05:23 |
| scunizi | Name141: oops.. you mentioned not to mention that.. sorry | 05:23 |
| SilentDis | racerd: just for the sake of keeping up with convos, preface lines to me with my name (silentdis), it beeps my client if i'm not watchin' :) | 05:23 |
| scunizi | racerd: to save your fingers type the first few characters then hit the TAB key.. it'll typically auto complete | 05:24 |
| SilentDis | racerd: from my understanding, there's a touch of configuration needed for it on Ubuntu, it seems to work a lil better for me with kubuntu... but i have a bunch of extra packages installed for it as well | 05:24 |
| Name141 | LOL | 05:24 |
| SilentDis | scunizi: thanks, I'm kinda just 'used to' that stuff, forget that most people won't remember it lol | 05:25 |

| albech | maslen: lubuntu? | 05:29 |
| SilentDis | maslen: I think debian (the root of ubuntu) has a very light version. I ran server with enlightenment for a while, as well. | 05:29 |
| scunizi | maslen: lubuntu I think it's called.. lxde windows manager.. or just install server and add "X" or do everything from the terminal.. quite an adventure.. | 05:29 |

| scunizi | intrader: xorg.conf is typically empty on the releases from 9.10 on.. video is controlled by xrandr .. if you think it the display driver there are other options there. | 05:30 |
| SilentDis | racerd: my mistype. `sudo apt-get install asoundconf-gtk` | 05:30 |
| scunizi | intrader: if you want to look at xorg it's typically at /etc/X11/ | 05:30 |
| intrader | Gnea: you let go of the issue? | 05:30 |
| damagu | Hey all. I have a macbookpro and have dual boot with Ubuntu 9.10. I only use mac os for a couple of audio editing programs and I'd prefer to not have to reboot into mac os to use them. Does anyone know if it's possible to use a mac os guest virtual machine in an ubuntu host? | 05:31 |
| intrader | scunizi: xrandr?. what is this. I will look in /etc/X11/ | 05:31 |
| Gnea | intrader: not sure what else to suggest, other than find someone else who has an 8200 and see what they suggest | 05:31 |

| Gnea | scunizi: yes. | 05:32 |
| Out_Cold_ | hiexpo: you might want /ns info nick | 05:32 |
| SilentDis | damagu: I wish. virtualizing Mac OS X has been the 'holy grail' for a while, they restrict the crap out of such things as that :P. I've not seen a good 'solution' to it in a long time, outside of compiling direct for X rather than the WM mac uses... but that's not possible except for FOSS software :( | 05:33 |
| Out_Cold_ | whois shows ip info as far as i know | 05:33 |

| crucialhoax | How do I set a picture for my login screen? | 05:34 |
| SilentDis | racerd: "PulseAudio" should be the default sound card. | 05:34 |
| damagu | SilentDis: yeah I tried searching around the net for something about it but can only find people saying it's illegal because you can only run mac os on macs etc. But I have a mac and I have the original disks not a copy. So it should be completely legal for me. | 05:34 |
| Gnea | scunizi: that's what I thought at first, too. seems that 9.10 doesn't properly detect the synaptic correctly or something | 05:35 |
| Out_Cold_ | crucialhoax: i think it's been removed from 9.10+ | 05:35 |
| scunizi | intrader: whatever you put in xorg.conf will apply to your system.. so if you know how to edit it for what you need go for it.. after you have to restart X to make it take effect | 05:35 |
| intrader | Gnea: is there a way to escalate this? | 05:35 |
| crucialhoax | Out_Cold_: So it has to stay that little outline of a human torso? | 05:36 |
| SilentDis | damagu: it has nothing to do with 'legal' or 'illegal', except that Apple likes you pidgen-holed into their stuff, exclusively. it is, after all, YOUR computer. but, that's how they threaten, cajole, and force folks that are working on it out of their research, so nothing gets done :( | 05:36 |
| damagu | SilentDis: completely legal unless... there's something about it in the EULA of course. :D | 05:36 |

| damagu | SilentDis: Yeah but the thing is I am actually using their machine and their OS and their software. I just want to do it from within Ubuntu. | 05:37 |
| mdel | damagu: its a technical limitation... not a legal one as mentioned | 05:37 |
| SilentDis | damagu: exactly. you are now 'virtualizing' it. therefore, running it on a 'different' machine, and so here comes the lawyers with their DMCA notices. welcome to a brave new world of stupidity :P | 05:37 |

| scunizi | Name141: I'm lost.. or forgot what we were talking about.. but I'm glad it's working | 05:39 |
| Gnea | intrader: we don't really 'escalate' here, as we're not paid... you've made the post to the forums already, that's good, but maybe you could update it with the information you now have that helps pinpoint the problem | 05:39 |
| damagu | SilentDis: Stupidity is the exact word for it. Oh well. Guess I have to keep rebooting until the free software audio editing software improves. I wish I could code because I'd love to help improve it. Anything I can do now to help is arbitrary really. | 05:39 |
| SilentDis | racerd: run it from a prompt. `gksudo asoundconf` i believe | 05:39 |

| Name141 | scunizi: Another thing, since I am on the FAP of Hughesnet. Would it be possible to setup auto check and install updates starting at 1 AM? | 05:41 |
| SilentDis | zbanks: whoa, something runaway in there. check out htop, decent little proggy to see what's running. also, if all else fails, log out of x, and restart it (ctrl-alt-backspace), see if that clears it. shouldn't need to reboot at least :) | 05:41 |

| damagu | SilentDis: I've seen and used Audacity. As good as it is, it doesn't come close to the power and functionality available in Logic. Unfortunately, Apple bought Logic and made it mac only so I can't even run it in wine. :( | 05:42 |
| zbanks | SilentDis: Yeah, restarting X helps, but I don't want to resort to that | 05:42 |
| racerd | silentdis: not working, some stuff i am running is kubuntu, think that may be what it is? | 05:42 |
| SilentDis | racerd: no, shouldn't be. did you at least get an error when you tried to run that command? | 05:42 |

| exploit100 | scunizi, you mean if i use same link every time then will it not be croupt? | 06:01 |
| nmvictor | got_a_question: please include my nick, im not glued to the screen so i might miss your replies | 06:01 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | maweki, 29th | 06:01 |
| got_a_question | nmvictor sorry | 06:01 |
| nico1 | the main problem is that i can't chroot to do 'update-grub' in the partition | 06:02 |
| scunizi | exploit100: no.. just that you need the link | 06:02 |
| nico1 | with the 9.10 livecd | 06:02 |
| maweki | rafaelsoaresbr, the ReleaseCandidate. It's scheduled for today, but WHEN? | 06:02 |
| Name141 | One other thing I noticed it's doing is instead of shutting down, it's saying "System Haulted" | 06:02 |
| nmvictor | got_a_question: but with a 500 Gb, their is no limit to what you can install, anyway why do you want to install XP again, thought I read something like "I have XP installed" | 06:02 |
| exploit100 | scunizi, thanks | 06:03 |
| Name141 | And I can hear the hard drive clinck off and all that | 06:03 |
| vivekraghuwanshi | hi | 06:03 |
| Name141 | but it doesn't actually turn off the whole system | 06:03 |
| Out_Cold_ | Name141: what is running to make you think it's on? | 06:03 |

| znxtch | Is there a way to test my system security to see what kind of personal information people can "probe" for. | 06:03 |

| shadeslayer | hi i cant seem to launch the gnome application launcher with Alt+F2 | 06:04 |
| nmvictor | anyone know how id use timestamps to act on certain newer files in a directory without affecting the older ones | 06:04 |
| got_a_question | nmvictor because right now i use xp as primary and ubuntu is installed as a program.. | 06:04 |
| Out_Cold_ | Name141: is it in suspend? what's th eissue? | 06:04 |
| shadeslayer | how do i launch it? also how do i restart the gnome panels? | 06:04 |
| exploit100 | scunizi, how can i configure web site in ubuntu os? | 06:04 |
| racerd | silentdis: i want this crap stuff to work | 06:04 |
| Name141 | Out_Cold_: It doesn't actually turn the machine off, I have to press the power button | 06:04 |
| Out_Cold_ | Name141: tried sudo halt? | 06:05 |
| scunizi | exploit100: sudo tasksel .. then choose LAMP.. html files go in /var/wwww | 06:05 |
| Name141 | Out_Cold_: Er? | 06:05 |
| DavidJHeinrich1 | is there a way to dynamically overclock the CPU in Linux such that it overclocks for high-intensity tasks? | 06:05 |
| Name141 | Out_Cold_: I go to restart and it restarts without this issue. | 06:05 |
| nmvictor | got_a_question: no prob with that, the ubuntu installer is so newbie-freindly, it wont ruin anything if you dont tell it to, but before you fully insall ubuntu be sure to uninstal it in XP, i once helped a friend fix a prob with that | 06:05 |
| gogeta1 | DavidJHeinrich1: well if its a laptop it does that aruldy | 06:06 |
| Losha | znxtch: you could start by running the tests on http://www.grc.com/ | 06:06 |
| Name141 | Out_Cold_: but if I go to shutdown, it just sits there | 06:06 |
| dugger5688 | DavidJHeinrich1: install it on a laptop that supports CPU scaling. | 06:06 |
| Name141 | Out_Cold_: Till I press the power button | 06:06 |
| DavidJHeinrich1 | dugger5688: I have a desktop | 06:06 |
| gogeta1 | DavidJHeinrich1: or a pc that supports those modes also would | 06:06 |
| scunizi | Name141: might be an ACPI thing.. you might need to disable acpi on the kernel line for boot.. | 06:06 |
| DavidJHeinrich1 | dugger5688: with a Intel Q9550 | 06:06 |
| dugger5688 | Then probably no. | 06:07 |
| mdel | wow... broadcom driver still suck :( | 06:07 |
| Name141 | scunizi: how is that done? | 06:07 |
| exploit100 | scunizi, is ok? | 06:07 |
| DavidJHeinrich1 | ahh, ok | 06:07 |
| DavidJHeinrich1 | thanks | 06:07 |
| mdel | wireless STILL keeps dropping out | 06:07 |

| rafaelsoaresbr | maweki, join #ubuntu+1 | 06:07 |
| got_a_question | nmvictor i will uninstall ubuntu from xp and then reinstall xp. my doubt is: can i erase the current partition (500gb) and create the new one (15gb)? | 06:08 |
| racerd | silentdis: i used those links.... hmmm what do i do with it | 06:08 |
| scunizi | Name141: you can test it when you boot .. get the grub menu up and push F6.. at the end of the kernel line (only one presented I think) before quiet splach .. add acpi=off | 06:08 |
| Out_Cold_ | mdel: sudo apt-get install wicd will do the trick. it's like network-manager but python based. n-m always drops my wifi too so i use wicd instead | 06:08 |
| mdel | Out_Cold_: do you know of a supported device list? | 06:08 |
| gogeta1 | got_a_question: you can resize without erasing | 06:08 |
| mdel | Out_Cold_: or is it just the manager? | 06:09 |
| Out_Cold_ | mdel: for ubuntu or wicd? | 06:09 |
| zeroseven0183 | Does the Ubuntu Manual project/team have a separate channel? | 06:09 |
| mdel | Out_Cold_: wicd | 06:09 |
| scunizi | Out_Cold_: mdel I've also found wicd it the only one that will let you graphically set a static ip for the machine. N-M doesn't | 06:09 |
| Name141 | scunizi: er uh ? There is no GRUB menu I don't guess. XP is no longer installed on the machine. | 06:09 |
| Out_Cold_ | mdel: it's a big script so it used base tools already on ubuntu | 06:09 |

| zeroseven0183 | jnuetron: You can also install Java from the Ubuntu Software Center | 06:12 |
| Out_Cold_ | scunizi: iirc nm allows static ip setup.. it's just in some random tab or something | 06:12 |
| scunizi | exploit100: better to read docs.. | 06:12 |
| oldmerovingian | Can someone please tell me where to get the 64 bit flash installer script? | 06:12 |
| oldmerovingian | Or a script? | 06:12 |

| gogeta1 | got_a_question: never tryed | 06:14 |
| crucialhoax | oldmerovingian: Make sure you remove any flash from the repo's and use this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/420223/ | 06:14 |
| gogeta1 | got_a_question: i always used gparted for that | 06:14 |
| oldmerovingian | Thanks | 06:14 |

| gogeta1 | got_a_question: then you use gparted to make a 15 gb ntfs and then ext3 and swap | 06:21 |

| Iszak | scunizi, how is it a daily build? I thought Firefox 3.6.3 has been out for a while - plus, flash is kinda broken atm doesn't register clicks sometimes. | 06:22 |
| Iszak | got_a_question, could also use wubi :P | 06:22 |
| crucialhoax | Maybe, I guess there is some Xorg Server memory leak, hardcore. | 06:22 |

| scunizi | Iszak: the PPA version (at least the one I used) is considered a daily build.. updates every day. and by broken flash I don't mean a little I mean totally non functional | 06:23 |
| Iszak | crucialhoax, err I simply installed it via the missing plugins dialog on firefox - I presume the repo though. | 06:23 |

| got_a_question | what wubi does | 06:27 |

| scunizi | Iszak: cli.. command line.. in the gui it's know as terminal.. sortof | 06:29 |
| pusakat | Iszak, you'll probably get a login prompt. it's a virtual terminal in text only mode. | 06:30 |
| Iszak | scunizi, thought so - how do I get out of it if I accidently go into it? | 06:30 |
| scunizi | Iszak: actually a TTY I believe is the official term | 06:30 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: Ctrl+alt+F7 | 06:30 |
| scunizi | Iszak: ctrl+alt+F7 | 06:30 |
| Iszak | ah okay | 06:30 |
| pusakat | iszak: alt-f7 | 06:30 |
| Iszak | thank you - but of what use is it? | 06:31 |
| scunizi | Iszak: F1-6 are tty's.. F7 is always gui | 06:31 |
| got_a_question | crucialhoax i have already installed ubuntu as a program | 06:31 |

| crucialhoax | got_a_question: You are already using Wubi? | 06:31 |
| got_a_question | not right now | 06:31 |
| scunizi | Iszak: if you gui doesn't start you can do everything from cli.. google irssi as an IRC program.. just one example of a terminal based program.. | 06:32 |
| got_a_question | but i use it | 06:32 |
| Iszak | scunizi, so ctrl + alt (1-6) all put it into TTY? what is TTY? | 06:32 |

| Iszak | scunizi, agreed but I'd prefer to dabble in terminal then full fledged. | 06:36 |
| hunahpu | subone: install the package "nautilus actions": sudo apt-get install nautilus-actions | 06:36 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: It does not kill X, it starts a shell. If you wanted to kill X: Ctrl+Alt+Bkspc | 06:36 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: You can also use it to start a whole different desktop. For instance, Ctrl+Alt+F3 might have one desktop, then F6 might be another. | 06:36 |
| scunizi | Iszak: same either way.. expicially when you can bounce back and forth | 06:36 |

| crucialhoax | got_a_question: Not sure, I have not done a Windows install in a looong time. | 06:38 |
| Iszak | The only thing I dislike about Ubuntu is the lack of newer version support e.g. netbeans, firefox, etc. | 06:38 |
| hunahpu | got_a_question: I don't remember XP installer having the option to specify the size of a partition, you may want to create a new partitions table with the LiveCD and Gparted | 06:38 |
| got_a_question | oh ok that sucks | 06:38 |
| === ricardo is now known as Cristian | ||
| Iszak | hunahpu, it doesn't. | 06:38 |
| got_a_question | so i will have to use gparted from the live cd? | 06:39 |
| hunahpu | Iszak: well, a new version is out every 6 months | 06:39 |
| subone | hunahpu, ty ill take a look at that | 06:39 |
| Iszak | hunahpu, perhaps but security updates and bug fixes are more often. | 06:39 |
| hunahpu | got_a_question: yes, I would recommend that; AFTER you backed up all your data, just create new partitions, specify the size of your winXP one and install in it | 06:39 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: If you want support for the newest packages, go with Fedora. I believe that distro to be the bleeding edge. | 06:40 |
| === Ken8521_ is now known as Ken8521 | ||
| hunahpu | Iszak: you get security updates and bug fixes on (almost) a daily basis. :D | 06:40 |
| venky10 | Hello | 06:41 |
| hunahpu | Iszak: if getting the latest latest versions of everything, you may want to consider a different (more flexible) distro like gentoo, arch, slackware, etc... there you just need the source code and compile yourself :) | 06:41 |
| hunahpu | Hello venky10 | 06:41 |
| Iszak | crucialhoax, that is actually my Linux distro but there's nothing that's like wubi for it. | 06:41 |
| Iszak | hunahpu, hehe I'm not that hardcore ;) | 06:42 |
| geekphreak | got_a_question: are you trying to dual boot? | 06:42 |
| got_a_question | yes | 06:42 |
| geekphreak | ok good luck | 06:42 |
| venky10 | I had a newbie question. I"m new to programming and I wanted to know why computer programs crash. For example while dereferencing Null pointers | 06:42 |
| znxtch | Can you run ITunes in WINE under Ubuntu Karmic? | 06:42 |
| venky10 | why can't it just continue on | 06:42 |
| got_a_question | hunahpu i would like to erase the disk first | 06:42 |
| * Iszak gasps | 06:42 | |
| Iszak | znxtch, why would you want to?! | 06:42 |
| hunahpu | znxtch: nope, not the latest versions at least | 06:42 |
| Iszak | iTunes is the biggest load of kaka I've ever used. | 06:43 |
| geekphreak | got_a_question: whole disk? | 06:43 |
| Iszak | iTunes to system resources => NOM NOM NOM, MOAR | 06:43 |
| hunahpu | got_a_question: when you delete partitions you basically erase the disk :) | 06:43 |
| got_a_question | geekphreak yes | 06:43 |
| znxtch | I have an Ipod Touch and I'm screwed | 06:43 |
| geekphreak | got_a_question: fdisk bam bam :d | 06:43 |
| znxtch | Well | 06:43 |
| znxtch | I'm not screwed | 06:43 |
| znxtch | I'm just too lazy to reinstall os x on another partition | 06:43 |
| hunahpu | znxtch: you can install win on a virtual machine | 06:43 |
| znxtch | just to sync an ipod | 06:43 |
| got_a_question | hunahpu i want to erase it securely | 06:44 |
| Iszak | you can't. | 06:44 |
| Iszak | you've got to destroy it to remove all data. | 06:44 |
| geekphreak | got_a_question: there are many apps that can do it, wipe,shread,killdisk,dban , you an use any o them :) | 06:44 |
| Iszak | even a guttman pass is apparently recoverable. | 06:44 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: Oh okay. | 06:44 |
| hunahpu | got_a_question: when you write new data over, old data will be gone for good; you may use "shred" too I guess | 06:44 |
| got_a_question | i know that | 06:44 |
| Iszak | hunahpu, lies! | 06:45 |
| got_a_question | not. | 06:45 |
| Iszak | got_a_question, if you want a secure wipe atleast use the guttman process - not 100% from what I've heard. | 06:45 |
| geekphreak | got_a_question: i wont be worried about it , unless giving drive to someone else, :) | 06:45 |
| Iszak | agreed. | 06:45 |
| got_a_question | yes but i wanna try it | 06:45 |
| hunahpu | Iszak: for general purpose yes... technically even a burned disk can be rescued but I seriously doubt you or anyone here have the equipment to do it.... | 06:45 |
| crucialhoax | dban ftw | 06:46 |
| got_a_question | crucialhoax how long it takes quick erase in dban? | 06:46 |
| got_a_question | is it quick? :P | 06:46 |
| crucialhoax | got_a_question: Over night. At the least. I believe it is like 8 hours. | 06:46 |
| geekphreak | nothing like a quick erase lol :) | 06:46 |
| Iszak | hunahpu, yes I should've been specific as to the destruction method :P melt it. | 06:46 |
| crucialhoax | got_a_question: It writes over the whole platter with 1's and 0's. very hard on an old drive, might break it so I have heard. | 06:47 |
| allu2 | arght! | 06:47 |
| crucialhoax | got_a_question: Are you that paranoid that the gov might get your songs? haha jk | 06:47 |
| got_a_question | lol | 06:47 |
| allu2 | i can't access my own files because of encryption and decryption doesn't work :( | 06:47 |
| crucialhoax | got_a_question: In all seriousness, it will take over night for sure. | 06:48 |
| Iszak | got_a_question, you shouldn't worry unles as stated by geekphreak you're giving it to someone else. | 06:48 |
| Iszak | s/unles/unless | 06:48 |
| got_a_question | but i dont recover files myself | 06:48 |
| got_a_question | dont want | 06:48 |
| got_a_question | lol | 06:48 |
| Iszak | I'd say a couple of write overs will make most recovering programs that are easily accessable unable to recover any data. | 06:49 |
| Iszak | most programs work because the file hasn't been written over, the file pointer is just removed. | 06:49 |
| allu2 | :( | 06:49 |
| abhilash | headphones are not working in ubuntu 9.10? speakers are working well, i tried alsamixer, no results, help!! | 06:49 |
| Iszak | crucialhoax, the over night clean, is that the guttman method? | 06:49 |
| rahman | Hi, I have forgotten my mySql server root pasword. I need to completely remove it so when I reinstall I can give a new root password but after a --purge apt-get install mysql-server 5.1 throws this error: | 06:49 |
| rahman | ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost' (using password: YES) | 06:50 |
| rahman | Any hint? | 06:50 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: It is called `autonuke` its a low grade military wipe I believe. | 06:50 |
| allu2 | :( | 06:50 |
| nsadmin | rahman: please tell me you backed up your databases... | 06:50 |
| Iszak | crucialhoax, interesting, I haven't heard of it | 06:51 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: Dban has a high-level Military wipe, takes forever. Never had to use it though. But if the quick one takes all night, I cant imagine that. | 06:51 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: google dban, it has a sourceforge page. | 06:51 |
| nsadmin | I knew a rahman one time... good guitar player | 06:51 |
| Iszak | crucialhoax, I've heard of people of just letting their HDD go on a week long wipe :P | 06:51 |
| Iszak | random sequences | 06:51 |
| rahman | nsadmin: I have backups so need to completely get rid of it | 06:51 |
| nsadmin | creative, knew his harmony well | 06:51 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: Correct, you can also but dban on a bootable usb | 06:51 |
| nsadmin | whew | 06:52 |
| Iszak | crucialhoax, that is epic! | 06:52 |
| crucialhoax | haha | 06:52 |
| Iszak | so if the SWAT is knocking at my door, I have five minutes, will it wipe everything? :P | 06:52 |
| got_a_question | So... I reinstall XP and then from ubuntu live cd I use gparted to resize XP partition and use left space for ubuntu? | 06:53 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: It can get started hahaa | 06:53 |
| allu2 | sorry if iam bad user and ask many times the same question and don't have patiance when i have to go in 30 mins but anyone could help me with the problems i said before about decrypting $HOME on liveCD? | 06:53 |
| nsadmin | Iszak: if swat is at your door, good fricken luck | 06:53 |
| rahman | can dpkg-reconfigure help to reset my mysql server password | 06:53 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: In that case, burn em, or sledge hammer ftw | 06:54 |
| Iszak | I think I'm pretty secure, I usually do a guttman wipe of empty space every week. | 06:54 |
| soudesune | thermite packet on top of unit | 06:54 |
| jjcv | got_a_question: Yip, that is one approach you can take. | 06:54 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: Using what? | 06:54 |
| Iszak | crucialhoax, what does it matter? not like you can stray from the process. | 06:55 |
| nsadmin | Iszak: if you piss off swat enough for them to come after you, what you need is not protection of your -data-... | 06:55 |
| rahman | dpkg-reconfigure made the trick thanks | 06:55 |
| got_a_question | so anyway... XP will use the whole HD to reinstall bah.. | 06:55 |
| soudesune | unsolicited mp5 in back | 06:56 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: I meant, what are you using to do it? I am just curious. There is a program for Windows called CCleaner that did that. | 06:56 |
| Iszak | nsadmin, I wouldn't say I piss them off, I just don't want them finding my data. | 06:56 |
| Iszak | crucialhoax, and what do you think of it? | 06:56 |

| got_a_question | pendrive or usb card | 06:57 |
| crucialhoax | got_a_question: Just reformat it, after of course, yo back everything up. | 06:57 |
| nsadmin | saw an interesting episode of nypd blue where they raided some sex social networking site with a erase-all-data button mounted on the wall... | 06:58 |
| got_a_question | but you could get data from it anyway | 06:58 |
| got_a_question | that's why im asking | 06:58 |
| geekphreak | got_a_question: you got bank detials on it :p | 06:58 |
| got_a_question | there must be something like dban for pendrives | 06:58 |
| crucialhoax | got_a_question: Look, there is no such thing as secure, no matter what. So really, your best bet is just to reformat it. | 06:58 |
| nsadmin | the kids tried to push it, they didn't make it... after the cops were done questioning them and they were going to leave, the cops hit the button | 06:58 |
| Iszak | Can I just say one thing - HOT - http://www.datadev.com/hard-drive-destroyer-data-security-mhdd.html | 06:59 |
| geekphreak | got_a_question: shred it , | 06:59 |
| Name141 | To get XFCE, all I do is sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop ? | 06:59 |
| soudesune | Just an fyi, if you are caught wiping a drive like that, you will be charged with destroying evidence, regardless of if it is actual evidence. | 06:59 |
| geekphreak | !info shred | got_a_question | 06:59 |
| ubottu | got_a_question: Package shred does not exist in karmic | 06:59 |
| necrogami | How can i go about detecting the serial port that is on my motherboard i did 'dmesg | grep ttyS' and recieved no return grep tty only returns the console | 06:59 |
| crucialhoax | Name141: That will install the XFCE desktop for ubuntu, if you want just XFCE, that is different. | 06:59 |
| geekphreak | huh wierd | 06:59 |
| hunahpu | Name141: that is correct | 06:59 |
| hunahpu | soudesune: in what country? | 06:59 |
| Name141 | hunahpu: Is there anything else I can use that would be more min on a P2 450 MHz, 10 GB hard drive, VooDoo 3 3DFX 8MB video card? | 07:00 |

| hiexpo | lol Iszak | 07:00 |
| got_a_question | cd-rw | 07:00 |
| got_a_question | lol | 07:00 |
| hunahpu | Name141: I don't think Ubuntu nor Xubuntu are right for that computer, you need something ligher; what's your ram? | 07:00 |
| Name141 | hunahpu: 320 MBs | 07:01 |
| Iszak | hiexpo, to be honest I wouldn't trust the hand crank, but then again if your power is cut then you're screwed. | 07:01 |
| geekphreak | got_a_question: google ultimatebootcd.com and get that its like 100 mb , burn and use , it has most you need | 07:01 |
| got_a_question | btw i burned ubuntu image at 24x on a cd-rw i hope it is good to install | 07:01 |
| hiexpo | lol | 07:01 |
| crucialhoax | got_a_question: Should have burnt it slower... IMO | 07:01 |
| nsadmin | venky10: the programmer didn't realize that a null pointer could reach that point and didn't check for it | 07:01 |
| got_a_question | i can burn it again | 07:01 |
| Iszak | crucialhoax, really? | 07:01 |
| nsadmin | then you'd have a burned-again cd! | 07:01 |
| === e3hkl is now known as amayblum | ||
| geekphreak | crucialhoax: agreed, slower / better and verify it too | 07:01 |
| crucialhoax | just check the md5 sum on the cd, if it checks out, you will be fine. | 07:02 |
| got_a_question | which speed do you recommend | 07:02 |
| Iszak | MAX | 07:02 |
| hunahpu | Name141: if you want it to fly, go for a very light distro like Puppy Linux, it may work decent with Arch (not exactly user-friendly install though). | 07:02 |
| crucialhoax | degh | 07:02 |
| venky10 | nsadmin: But the program can ignore that dereference instruction and move ahead, right? | 07:02 |
| amayblum | where i can get java .deb file | 07:02 |
| crucialhoax | 4x | 07:02 |
| Iszak | To be honest, I always burn on maximum, verify, never have a problem. | 07:02 |
| nsadmin | a speed the intended drive will do | 07:02 |
| amayblum | where i can get java .deb file to install Java | 07:02 |
| crucialhoax | Iszak: Which why I pointed that out, as long as the md5 is fine, dont worry about it. | 07:02 |
| hunahpu | amayblum: http://packages.ubuntu.com | 07:02 |
| Name141 | hunahpu: I just basically wanna set the computer up to do something rather than sit around and collect dust is all. | 07:02 |

| Iszak | I guess not everyone has 100's of CD/DVD's to spare. | 07:03 |
| Name141 | Wasn't there a small KDE desktop too? | 07:03 |
| necrogami | Name141: FluxBox | 07:03 |
| hunahpu | Name141: go for Puppy Linux, it's very light and has a friendly GUI; if you have experience you may try a custom installation with Gentoo or Arch | 07:03 |
| got_a_question | i didnt even verify | 07:03 |
| Iszak | got_a_question, stop worrying and just do it already. | 07:03 |

| soudesune | Iszak: Can I borrow some dvdr DLs? need some more 360 games. thx | 07:03 |

| got_a_question | Iszak need to backup first but I can't do it right now | 07:04 |
| Iszak | haha, people are always short of CD/DVD's :P | 07:04 |

| crucialhoax | CD's are so 90's | 07:04 |
| Name141 | I think I'll just install OpenSSH or whatever I need to do to get it to become a 'server' , and just use command lines. | 07:04 |
| Iszak | got_a_question, maybe you should try wubi/VM ware, you seem to paranoid that it'll screw things up. | 07:04 |
| Iszak | crucialhoax, yeah that's why I'm not getting blu-ray's. | 07:04 |
| crucialhoax | haha @ Iszak | 07:04 |
| hunahpu | Name141: yes, that is a good idea too | 07:04 |
| got_a_question | Name141 install it and edit sshd file | 07:05 |
| necrogami | hunahpu: he was looking for something that was lightweight ontop of ubuntu .. fluxbox is that. | 07:05 |
| nsadmin | venky10: no, basically what happens (this must be C I guess) is the compiler generates machine instructions to take the address contained in the pointer and use it... null pointers are considered special cases and are serious bugs in the program. | 07:05 |
| got_a_question | change the port | 07:05 |
| got_a_question | and dont allow root | 07:05 |

| hunahpu | allu2: geekphreak if you know what does Ubuntu use to encrypt by default, instlaling it and mounting with its encrypted filesystem, and using your password as passphrase may work | 07:10 |
| geekphreak | allu2: keep it booting, wait for sometime | 07:11 |
| got_a_question | im gonna burn ubuntu again at 4x and verify | 07:11 |

| Iszak | perhaps don't take it so seriously next time. | 07:12 |
| crucialhoax | Ohhh | 07:12 |
| allu2 | hunahpu: i managed to get it ask the passphrase by chrooting but it didn't help it just still doesn't sem to decrypt | 07:12 |
| geekphreak | libertiy: when you add user to mysql dbase right, you add user like name@localhost, if it is localhost, only local access allowed, i it something like name@% , then any remote pc can access it too | 07:12 |
| nsadmin | Iszak: sure, and I like things like find, xargs, piping in general, programs written in one language that write programs in another, lisp, perl, tcl and postgresql :) | 07:12 |
| Iszak | we should move to sha1, md5 has too many collisions. | 07:12 |

| allu2 | hunahpu: you think you could help me with it? | 07:16 |
| geekphreak | allu2: dont say that , come on man :) | 07:16 |

| nsadmin | when theuy're small but useful, they're kinda fun | 07:16 |
| geekphreak | hunahpu: i dont think its that easy mate | 07:17 |
| hunahpu | allu2: choose defaults, but when it ask about file extensions change to "y"; the passphrase should be your regular password, if it's something different it will warn you | 07:17 |

| crucialhoax | amayblum: Ummm. No there is not, it is one file. It is a single .bin file. | 07:20 |

I.E. the print head is moving but nothing is coming out. No, it's not out of black, if I do a B/W photocopy it prints fine. | 07:23 |
| necrogami | amayblum: your on xchat which means your on a gui so you can open a web browser type google.com and then type linux java | 07:23 |
| hunahpu | stls: you can get problems by using sudo as it uses root's preferences; some bad things may happen the safest way is to use gksu or gksudo when launching GUI apps | 07:24 |

| nsadmin | umm I dunno! | 07:50 |
| crucialhoax | frankie_: KDE has a windows feel to it, and Xubuntu is meant for older machines. | 07:50 |
| geekphreak | frankie_: they are basically type of interface in easier terms for you :) | 07:50 |
| ayam_jago | !xubuntu > jen8661 | 07:50 |
| ubottu | jen8661, please see my private message | 07:50 |
| crucialhoax | jen8661: Depends on the requirements. | 07:50 |
| frankie_ | is there a website or something that explains the differences of window managers (? is that correct term) | 07:50 |
| geekphreak | frankie_: if you like eye candy then kubuntu :) | 07:50 |
| droopal | Hi, this is going to be hard to explain, so please feel free to ask questions so that I can give you more information. | 07:51 |
| crucialhoax | frankie_: Yes that is a correct term :) | 07:51 |
| geekphreak | frankie google is your friend :) | 07:51 |
| obscurant1st | i need to create an accesspoint and share the internet connection through it, how can i do it? i am connected to internet via eth0 | 07:51 |
| kdjubuntu | frankie: google gnome kdm icewm sawwm | 07:51 |
| nsadmin | frankie, for one, fvwm is a window manager, so is sawfish and windowmaker | 07:51 |
| droopal | I upgraded to Lucid on my pc a couple ofm days ago, and it got stalled, and told me wine had a probelem installing, and it the installation had stopped. | 07:51 |
| intok | Anyone else got an HP PSC 1410 printer? http://www.openprinting.org/printer/HP/HP-PSC_1400 I can print in color just fine, but I can't get greyscale printing to work, it sounds like it's printing, but it doesn't put anything to the paper. I.E. the print head is moving but nothing is coming out. No, it's not out of black, if I do a B/W photocopy it prints fine. | 07:52 |
| obscurant1st | somebody? | 07:52 |
| crucialhoax | frankie_: KDE and Gnome are "Desktop Environments" Window managers are like Ice and Saw. | 07:52 |
| nsadmin | obscurant1st: an access point? wired? | 07:52 |
| droopal | Now, I have Lucid on my pc, but in the grub, it its not changed it has all the old updates on there. How do I get it to complete the upgrade | 07:52 |
| frankie_ | oh i see... tis alot more complex than windows :P | 07:53 |
| crucialhoax | obscurant1st: Does a switch fit the bill? | 07:53 |
| obscurant1st | nsadmin, accesspoint in wlan0, | 07:53 |
| geekphreak | frankie_: more fun too :) | 07:53 |
| crucialhoax | frankie_: Just more configurable to each users needs :) | 07:53 |
| * ayam_jago brb eeQ | 07:53 | |
| geekphreak | man we sound like linux salesman lol | 07:53 |
| nsadmin | oh, wireless... I've never done wireless (except once, it just worked) | 07:53 |
| obscurant1st | crucialhoax, no, i dont have switch or router, actually i just need to connect my my iphone to wifi | 07:53 |
| kdjubuntu | I've got a monitor in the standard nowadays "wide" size. What's the smart (=one-stop) way to configure fonts nicely for karmic? I need bigger than default fonts due to poor vision. | 07:53 |
| obscurant1st | nsadmin, any tips for me? | 07:53 |
| kdjubuntu | should I change system->preferences->appearance->fonts to 12 for all? or should I go into details under fonts and increase dpi? | 07:54 |
| necrogami | How can i go about detecting the serial port that is on my motherboard i did 'dmesg | grep ttyS' and recieved no return grep tty only returns the console | 07:54 |
| crucialhoax | obscurant1st: So a wireless router will work then. It has a 4 port switch for your wired connections and wireless for the iPhone. | 07:54 |
| nsadmin | well I didn't do an access point (I bought one) | 07:54 |
| crucialhoax | lol | 07:54 |
| nsadmin | and I havent' used it yet | 07:54 |
| geekphreak | kdjubuntu: i would go in system >> pref :) | 07:54 |
| obscurant1st | crucialhoax, that i know. but the thing is,i am here in this place for 2 days, also i have done this in windows, i mean ICS through wifi | 07:55 |
| mneptok | kdjubuntu: System > Preference > Appearance to be exact | 07:55 |
| nsadmin | but some wireless cards can be APs with the right software and setup | 07:55 |
| obscurant1st | for 2 days a wifi router, i dont think its a good idea | 07:55 |
| frankie_ | i like how linuxmint works.. but i like how ubuntu looks.. i do not know what to choose :( | 07:55 |
| nsadmin | it's not easy to get working | 07:55 |
| kdjubuntu | geekphreak, umm... by details under fonts I meant system->preferences->appearance->fonts->details. | 07:55 |
| obscurant1st | nsadmin, i have done the same setup in windows | 07:56 |
| ukaratay | \server irc.webchat.org | 07:56 |
| nsadmin | frankie: if you spend enough time, you can make any linux look like any other | 07:56 |
| hybrid_mind | dang, my box is crashing every 15mins or so, any ideas? made two 'major' changes - enabled remote desktop (requiring password) and added two simple python scripts to crontab. | 07:56 |
| geekphreak | frankie_: it comes down to matter of choice , i would go for ubuntu thats why i use it, just my take :) | 07:56 |
| ibrahim-laptop0 | Hello All, I am trying to upgrade to lucid from karmic , does not work because of package dependencies I think it is related to x.org crackers PPA. Does anybody faced the same problem and know the solution? | 07:56 |
| moderndayzero | did i miss a responce to the soft reset problem? | 07:57 |
| crucialhoax | frankie_: Linux Mint will have most restricted software installed by default, such as flash, java and mp3 support. | 07:57 |
| moderndayzero | yes i just fixed them | 07:57 |
| moderndayzero | let me see if i can find the link | 07:57 |
| geekphreak | kdjubuntu: oh ok | 07:57 |
| frankie_ | i showed my partner both of them and she was really keen on using linux mint :P | 07:58 |
| frankie_ | so i might be going for that | 07:58 |
| crucialhoax | Why do so many do the upgrade process? It seems that all it does is fail, either that, or it is very irregular. | 07:58 |
| crucialhoax | frankie_: Linux Mint has a nice interface. | 07:58 |
| frankie_ | there are so many distros out there.. i want to try them all. :( | 07:58 |
| crucialhoax | frankie_: Mint is based off of Ubuntu. | 07:58 |
| kdjubuntu | is it ok to use gnash or swfdec instead of adobe for youtube? | 07:58 |
| mneptok | frankie_: no, you don't. | 07:58 |
| nsadmin | ibrahim-laptop0: maybe this is worth saying... if you're involving ppas, some folks won't know about them since they're not official ubuntu defaults | 07:58 |
| geekphreak | crucialhoax: it kinda of reminds me of suse interface and i hate suse :) | 07:59 |
| crucialhoax | geekphreak: The suse interface is usually always complimented for being so clean lol. I find KDE in general a pain to use. | 07:59 |
| moderndayzero | ibrahim you need the xorg edgers ppa | 07:59 |
| nsadmin | crucialhoax: probably it has to do with the development workflow and path of ubuntu, which starts by taking debian unstable and working on it | 08:00 |
| geekphreak | crucialhoax: too flashy for me | 08:00 |
| frankie_ | well i feel overwhelmed at all the options at hte moment, i am enjoy linux.. it will fulfilll what i desire its just committing to a distro :^) | 08:00 |
| frankie_ | you people here have been very helpful | 08:00 |
| nsadmin | as a result (generally) ubuntu development doesn't help debian packages get stable | 08:00 |
| geekphreak | frankie_: you can do this , install ubuntu, try rest on virtuabox :) | 08:00 |
| crucialhoax | nsadmin: My thought was too many variables not accounted for in the software installation. Clean install all the way. | 08:00 |
| crucialhoax | geekphreak: Exactly. | 08:01 |
| dotmono | huraa | 08:01 |
| nsadmin | crucialhoax: and the dev workflow could be part of why | 08:01 |
| moderndayzero | ibrahim here is a link for some info https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa | 08:02 |
| ibrahim-laptop0 | moderndayzero: that PPA is already there. but I cannot upgrade to lucid, as I can see from apt.log broken dependencies for xorg packages | 08:02 |

| === neutron is now known as neutronk | ||
| crucialhoax | nsadmin: is there a way to tell apt to accept what I installed? For instance, I do not use the Java in the repo's but some package depend on java but it is not recognized | 08:03 |
| geekphreak | frankie_: loads and loads of them :) distrowatch good site, check it out :) | 08:03 |
| xiaoshen | anybody using db2? ineed help , coz in db2# noone is active xD | 08:03 |
| nsadmin | frankie_: what is your goal in getting familiar with linux? | 08:03 |
| nsadmin | crucialhoax, there's a package called equivs | 08:04 |
| nsadmin | I'm a little surprised more people aren't using aptitude | 08:05 |
| ^Wolverin | hi | 08:05 |
| ^Wolverin | i use apt-get | 08:05 |
| geekphreak | nsadmin: i dont too be honest i have been using ubuntu for sometime, , always used apt-get , dpkg sometime , aptitude never | 08:05 |
| crucialhoax | I believe it is because it is lacking in dependency resolution, don't quote me on that, but I did read somewhere that there is a problem with it. | 08:06 |
| stego_ | !aptitude | 08:06 |
| ubottu | aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. Like other APT front-ends, it can install/remove packages and their dependencies. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide | 08:06 |

| nsadmin | reason why I say that is apt-get was only intended as a test of the apt libs... but people descended on the author saying GIMME. NOW. | 08:07 |

| bilalakhtar | Hi people does 64bit ubuntu utilise more RAM than 32-bit ubuntu? | 08:14 |
| hiexpo | lol | 08:14 |
| crucialhoax | ok, I have to ask, how do you input those nsadmin | 08:15 |
| crucialhoax | bilalakhtar: Yes. | 08:15 |
| nsadmin | input which? | 08:15 |
| DJones | bilalakhtar: 64bit ubuntu is able to use more memory than the 4Gb that the default 32bit ubuntu will normally have access to | 08:15 |
| hiexpo | Iszak, - incoming | 08:15 |
| Jnuetron | bilalakhtar : yes but it also improves the performance | 08:15 |
| nsadmin | oh you mean | 08:15 |

| bouma | hello, can anyone recommend a collection of more linux console screen fonts (en), cause i need a larger font cause my screen is 1280x880, not that big enough to make a small vga font (the default with ubuntu 9.10) a bit small. | 08:16 |
| crucialhoax | ha thanks | 08:16 |
| bouma | like is there a package? | 08:16 |
| bilalakhtar | DJones: I know that ubuntu x64 can use more memory but I want to know whether 1GB ram would be enough for ubuntu x86_64 | 08:16 |
| frankie_ | ive been reading about linux and open source.. is redhat one of the good guys or bad guys? | 08:16 |
| bouma | and what are the file formats, to search for them ? | 08:16 |
| crucialhoax | good. | 08:16 |
| nsadmin | console fonts? not x fonts? | 08:16 |
| i_got_a_question | do u miss me? | 08:16 |

| crucialhoax | hahaha | 08:16 |
| nsadmin | do you got a question? | 08:16 |
| hiexpo | red hat cost money | 08:17 |
| bilalakhtar | DJones: My RAM usage in 32-bit never exceeds 650 MB | 08:17 |
| bilalakhtar | DJones: I have 2GB SWAP | 08:17 |
| bilalakhtar | DJones: and 1GB RAM | 08:17 |

| MobiusJedi | hey peeps... vlc won't play vids without stuttering. I think i installed something that conflicted with a gstreamer package, problem is i have no idea which one | 08:18 |

| lurensdfsdfsdfsd | d | 08:18 |
| crucialhoax | bilalakhtar: x64 machines will run 32bit applications still. as not everything has been ported over. | 08:18 |
| bilalakhtar | DJones: Is it fine to move to 64bit? | 08:18 |
| DJones | bilalakhtar: I've not used the 64bit version, all of my machines are 32bit and have 512Mb of ram, so I'm not the best person to ask about whether 1Gb would be enough for 64bit, I don't see why not though, the base system is similar | 08:18 |
| SandGorgon | bilalakhtar, you need to take a look at overcommit_memory, overcommit_ratio and swappiness settings in sysctl | 08:18 |
| hiexpo | better off to run 32 bit | 08:18 |
| hiexpo | and 2 gig swap is fine | 08:19 |
| crucialhoax | bilalakhtar: 1gb might be enough memory for x64, best way is to run a live cd and see what the ram usage is like. but if 64bit is not necessary you might as well stick with 32 | 08:19 |
| bilalakhtar | crucialhoax: Yes a Live CD is a good option | 08:19 |

| hiexpo | crucialhoax, overkill | 08:28 |
| crucialhoax | zebastian: Yes you can. | 08:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Hiexpo: if you set vm.swappiness to a lower figure your system will try and use swap less | 08:28 |
| crucialhoax | it was the defaults and i never cared much to change it. | 08:28 |
| bilalakhtar | crucialhoax: yes we can (Barack Obama) | 08:28 |
| Flannel | zebastian: You can. You just can't touch the partitions you have mounted (in use) right now. If you needed to, for instance, shrink your Ubuntu parititon to make room, you couldn't (you'd have to use a liveCD) | 08:29 |
| Bardology | nsadmin: problem fixed. I added another repository that intalled libltdl3 | 08:29 |

| ActionParsnip | Hiexpo: there are guides. They are on guides to make ubuntu faster. This phone is pretty poor for browsing but you set it in /etc/sysctl.conf | 08:31 |
| Flannel | bilalakhtar: Eh? | 08:31 |
| avgeneral | running version 10.04 Beta 2 | 08:31 |
| nsadmin | Bardology: excellent... also consider, for next time, when you download binary stuff which may or may not be compiled for your version of ubuntu, you can sometimes build the package | 08:31 |
| Flannel | zebastian: If it was a GUI, then you already have a LiveCD (that CD was it) | 08:31 |
| hiexpo | ok | 08:31 |
| Flannel | avgeneral: #ubuntu+1 for Lucid support, thanks | 08:31 |
| avgeneral | thx | 08:31 |
| bilalakhtar | Flannel: You wanted to know how to install, so I got the bot to send the factoid to you | 08:32 |
| nsadmin | is bardology about Bridgitte Bardot? | 08:32 |
| Flannel | bilalakhtar: No, I didn't want to know how to install, I wanted to know which method he used to install | 08:32 |
| zebastian | Flannel: but what i want to do is leave ubuntu untouched and make a new partition, install windows and dual boot | 08:32 |
| Flannel | bilalakhtar: But thanks anyway | 08:32 |
| Bardology | nsadmin: Yeah, in the future I'll try to avoid "It will be faster if I just find a package", because invariably, it's not ;) | 08:32 |
| MobiusJedi | some day, i'm going to go through the #ubuntu logs and count all the +1's, just to see how far ahead ubuntu is. . . and maybe there i'll find a solution to my gstreamer problem | 08:33 |
| ugliefrog | is there a plugin for image viewer to open .jp2 images (jpeg2000) | 08:33 |
| Flannel | zebastian: do you have unused space at the 'end' of your drive? or does you Ubuntu partition use the whole thing? (pastebin the output of `sudo fdisk -l` (lowercase L) | 08:33 |
| bilalakhtar | zebastian: When you will install windows, then windows will overwrite the GRUB mbr | 08:33 |
| zebastian | Flannel: ubuntu is using hte whole thing | 08:33 |
| Flannel | zebastian: Then you'll have to boot to a LiveCD and shrink your Ubuntu partition (to give windows some room) with gparted | 08:34 |
| nsadmin | MobiusJedi: you'll only find how many people wonder about the next release :) | 08:34 |
| phobia | nevermind.. "file" had me fooled, it reported iso-8859 encoding, so I tried that for iconv, but it's iso-8859-1 of course | 08:34 |
| MobiusJedi | rofl... drat | 08:34 |
| bilalakhtar | Flannel: Why not make him install gparted on his ubuntu installation? | 08:35 |
| zebastian | Flannel: ok, my question is, what do i do? i dont have the original ubuntu livecd, and secondly, are you telling me to get gparted or to get an ubuntu livecd? | 08:35 |
| nsadmin | frumiously fooling file. | 08:35 |
| Flannel | bilalakhtar: Because he can't shrink his Ubuntu partition while its in use | 08:35 |
| bilalakhtar | Flannel: ohk | 08:35 |
| MobiusJedi | would it be bad if, in synaptic, i typed 'gstreamer' and just install everything? | 08:35 |
| Flannel | zebastian: You need to get a LiveCD, then while you've booted to the liveCD, you use gparted to shrink your Ubuntu partition to make unallocated space so windows can use it | 08:36 |
| bilalakhtar | zebastian: Download the livecd fromhttp://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso and boot using it | 08:36 |
| bilalakhtar | zebastian: Download the livecd from http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso and boot using it | 08:36 |
| zebastian | Flannel: gparted is part of the ubuntu livecd? | 08:36 |
| bilalakhtar | zebastian: The open gparted from the system->administration | 08:36 |
| bilalakhtar | zebastian: yes | 08:36 |
| zebastian | so let me see if i get it, boot from livecd | 08:37 |
| zebastian | then go where? to open gparted that is | 08:37 |
| Flannel | zebastian: Might be "gnome partition editor" or something like that (maybe just partition editor) in the menus, but yes. | 08:37 |
| hiexpo | found it | 08:37 |
| bilalakhtar | zebastian: its "GParted" | 08:37 |
| zebastian | under waht? | 08:37 |
| bilalakhtar | zebastian: its "GParted partition editor" | 08:37 |
| bilalakhtar | zebastian: in system->administration menu | 08:37 |
| zebastian | Flannel: do i have to give the partitions a specific name or write down the name? because i understand then i have to do something else to get grub back to boot into either system | 08:38 |

| bilalakhtar | zebastian: Ask Flannel for help. I have to go somewhere. | 08:42 |
| Flannel | bullgard4: You're already on the development version, so -d does nothing. There is no 'development version' for you to upgrade to. | 08:42 |

| Flannel | bullgard4: What updates are you talking about? | 08:44 |
| zebastian | Flannel: i am on hardy, i boot from cd, make new empty space, do i make it ntsf or just blank? then i go and install windows in the available free space, then i use the live cd again to boot from it and somehow reinstall grub? | 08:44 |
| Flannel | bullgard4: This has actually become a 10.04 specific question, since I understand it might've changed. You should ask in #ubuntu+1 | 08:45 |
| Flannel | zebastian: Just leave it blank, the windows CD will do the formatting of it. | 08:45 |
| zebastian | Flannel: do i have to give a particular name to the new space? do i havce to pay close attention to the name of the partition ubuntu is on | 08:45 |

| Flannel | zebastian: I don't believe on Hardy you'll have to worry about that long string. But basically that's checking to make sure the partition is what you think it is. Since you only have one Ubuntu partition (I suspect) then your Ubuntu partition will house your boot folder | 08:56 |
| obscurant1st | pat5star, use Vbox and install xp+itunes in it | 08:56 |

| ubottu | AAA_awright: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea.

| jetole | oneBit: it will reconfigure a lot of stuff... | 09:45 |
| jetole | anything in your home dir will still be there | 09:46 |

| jetole | oneBit: some stuff will need to be reconfigured, it's supposed to be minimal but not always. All your personal data will still be there. I however tend to do full re installs for the most part these days when the time comes | 09:48 |
| oneBit | i just updated firefox etc. and saw in the window that i can upgrade ubuntu to 9.10 , and if the packages, installed programms, and anything in my home folder will be kept i wanted to upgrade ubuntu^^ | 09:48 |

| jetole | oneBit: you can and everything in your home folder will be kept but be prepeared for the odd program here and there that may need to be reconfigured | 09:49 |

| SiReN | hey guys, Maybe I'm lazy, or maybe I'm just going round in circles but I would really appreciate some help with my ubuntu dual hdd boot... | 09:57 |
| wise_crypt | !grub | SiReN | 09:58 |
| ubottu | SiReN: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 09:58 |
| theadmin | wise_crypt: That is not very helpful | 09:58 |
| theadmin | SiReN: What's the prob? | 09:58 |
| SiReN | I have windows 7 on my one sata and ubuntu on another sata hdd but on reboot I get no grub | 09:59 |
| SiReN | i have to enter the bios manually and select the ubuntu drive so i can boot it | 09:59 |
| CaNoc | how can I disable auto start service in U 10.04? | 09:59 |
| wise_crypt | theadmin: it helps lol | 09:59 |
| wise_crypt | !grub | SiReN | 10:00 |
| theadmin | CaNoc: Lucid help in #ubuntu+1 | 10:00 |
| theadmin | ...what on earth is "auto start service" | 10:00 |
| nikolam | I think that this inability to report bugs on Launchpad for non-Ubuntu packages wil hider further development of newer applications. | 10:01 |
| nikolam | Launchpad can not be used for buf reporting on other projects then Ubuntu as I see now. | 10:02 |
| nikolam | bug | 10:02 |
| Wipster | hey all, I'm on 9.10 and my screen went black and I have a nice message in my tray pointing to http://blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2009/08/17/gnome-power-manager-and-blanking-removal-of-bodges I'v had this before I guess its still not fixed? heh | 10:02 |
| theadmin | nikolam: No, any project hosted on Launchpad, which uses LP bugtracker will be able to get bugs reported on LP | 10:03 |
| nikolam | There is also no GUI for reporting bugs, just terminal command and that is just bad for users that want to report something but are afraid of command lines | 10:03 |
| theadmin | nikolam: No. Help -> Report a problem. in any application. | 10:04 |
| Name141 | I installed eggdrop, but instead of looking in /usr/lib/eggdrop/modules, it's trying to look in /home/n1/modules for the modules. | 10:04 |
| Name141 | Is there a way to fix that? | 10:04 |
| nikolam | theadmin, well, I tried to report a bug that was catched witha pport and it refused to report it, because it is "not genuine ubuntu application" | 10:04 |
| nikolam | we need hologram stickers to be just like ms. | 10:04 |
| theadmin | That's exactly why we get so many reports about yelp, because people go to this "Help" in System and try to report bugs from there %) | 10:04 |
| red2kic | Name141: Look for config file or symbolic link. | 10:04 |
| nikolam | theadmin, that is not solution. if app is crashing or something. | 10:04 |
| AdvoWork | is there a way I can see why my ubuntu client isnt connecting to the internet? | 10:05 |
| Name141 | red2kic: I see set mod-path "modules/" | 10:05 |
| theadmin | nikolam: Well, i know... Indeed it is bleh | 10:05 |
| Name141 | red2kic: I will try changing that to the /usr/lib/eggdrop/modules | 10:05 |
| red2kic | Name141: Okay. :o | 10:05 |
| nikolam | well, thats what I am talking. GUI for error reporting that can be used for all applications in their respective projects. | 10:06 |
| nikolam | "not genuine ubuntu" sounds.. terriby wrong, too | 10:06 |

| red2kic | Name141: Great. :) | 10:09 |
| Name141 | red2kic: I just need to make a real config file now ;o | 10:09 |
| howlymowly | ikonia: it sets you up a "virtual" python installation in your home directory (makes links to the python executable in your ~/bin directory, etc.. ) that way you have a completly functional python environment in your home directory.. when you do "easy_install" for example, new modules will be install in your home directory etc... | 10:10 |

| muncky | hi guys, I'm having a NFS problem with my freshly installed ubuntu server. When using exportfs I get the message : exportfs: Warning: /home/frank/files does not support NFS export. Any help would be appreciated ! | 10:17 |
| AdvoWork | wise_crypt, the router is 192.168.0.4 subnet is 255.255.255.0 | 10:17 |
| AdvoWork | i tried adding it through the gui but the OK button was greyed out even after i filled the details in | 10:17 |
| howlymowly | alright... ikoniai found out: you do that with the additional parameter: "--python=pyhon2.5" | 10:18 |

| AdvoWork | wise_crypt, 0.8 being an ip for the client? do i have todo /24? im going to assign it .136 so is that 192.168.0.136/24? | 10:19 |

| AdvoWork | wise_crypt, i even did sudo before, but i get SIOCADDRT: Operation not permitted | 10:21 |
| wise_crypt | AdvoWork: sudo su | 10:21 |
| erUSUL | !rootshell | 10:22 |
| ubottu | Using !sudo with single commands is preferable in most circumstances. However, if you really need a root shell, use « sudo -i » (other variants of this commands are redundant and/or potentially dangerous) | 10:22 |
| erUSUL | AdvoWork: sudo ifconfig eth0 up | 10:22 |
| wise_crypt | AdvoWork: maybe not in sudo list just sudo su | 10:22 |
| AdvoWork | ok, that worked | 10:22 |
| AdvoWork | so in theory, it should work now? | 10:22 |
| AdvoWork | ie internet access etc? | 10:22 |
| wise_crypt | erUSUL: thx AdvoWork: ifconfig eth0 up | 10:23 |
| erUSUL | muncky: /home/frank/files is ext* filesystem ? | 10:23 |
| AdvoWork | i can get to my router now | 10:24 |
| wise_crypt | AdvoWork: cross your finger and hope for the best :) | 10:24 |
| AdvoWork | cant get on the internet though | 10:24 |
| wise_crypt | AdvoWork: lol | 10:24 |

| erUSUL | muncky: no i'm asking if that files directory is in the linux partition or is a windows partition you mounted there ? | 10:26 |
| Name141 | that would be the same as if I waited on the "update manager" to tell me there is an update? | 10:26 |

| === PhilippeD_ is now known as PhilippeD | ||
| zebastian | can someone help me out? i need to know how to create free space to install windows and dual boot | 10:33 |
| iflema | zebastian youll need to do it twice.... the livecd thing.... first time.... use gparted (back up important datat)to resize the partition (towards the back) and create a new partition in the space for windows... up front..... | 10:33 |
| zebastian | without ubuntu being touch | 10:33 |
| trijntje | zebastian: its better to do it the other way around, install windows first and ubuntu second | 10:33 |
| zebastian | iflema: ok, i dont understand what towards the abck and up front means | 10:33 |
| wise_crypt | AdvoWork: nano /etc/resolv.conf | 10:34 |
| geekphreak | always install windows first | 10:34 |
| zebastian | i know this much, i already havre ubuntu, specifically hardy with a lot of customization | 10:34 |
| zebastian | i have alrady backed up my files | 10:34 |
| VSpike | Here's my iptables setup... wlan0 is local, eth0 is WAN. local is 10.0.0.0/24. http://pastebin.org/167236 ... Can anyone tell me how I'd redirect an external port to an internal machine? | 10:34 |
| zebastian | nevertheless i dont want to have to reinstall ubuntu again | 10:34 |
| zebastian | at all | 10:34 |
| wise_crypt | AdvoWork: *sudo /etc/resolv.conf | 10:34 |
| wise_crypt | AdvoWork: *sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf | 10:35 |
| trijntje | zebastian: installing windows will remove grub, so you cannot enter ubuntu | 10:35 |
| iflema | zebastian youll see when ya in gparted..... put winblows first and after win install go backinto livecd and reinstall grub | 10:35 |
| erUSUL | AdvoWork: you just have to add an stanza for eth0; hold on. | 10:35 |
| erUSUL | AdvoWork: http://paste.ubuntu.com/420327/ | 10:35 |
| trijntje | zebastian: so after the windows install you have to reinstall grub | 10:35 |
| geekphreak | does he have grub2 iflema? | 10:35 |
| erUSUL | AdvoWork: change the ip's to match your configuration. also make sure you have the package "resolvconf" installed | 10:35 |
| zebastian | i understand and accept the fact that i have to reinstall grub afterwards, but i am not getting the put windows first | 10:36 |
| iflema | geekpgreak ask him | 10:36 |
| erUSUL | muncky: what OS is you client machine ? | 10:36 |
| zebastian | i know i havre to free up space and that theres no need to make a ntsf partition | 10:36 |
| zebastian | but i still wonder what putting windows first means | 10:36 |
| iflema | geekphreak imean... ask him | 10:36 |
| muncky | erUSUL : ubuntu 10.04 | 10:36 |
| Dovid | hi. i am trying to get the status of mysql on a ubuntu sesrver. I get this error: http://pastebin.com/ih7BbHMQ | 10:36 |

| erUSUL | muncky: ok; so you are tryin to export /dev/sdb1 1 17881 143629101 7 HPFS/NTFS | 10:36 |
| erUSUL | ? | 10:37 |
| AdvoWork | hmmm theres a few entries in there which are fine, so if theyre in there why wouldnt internet work? | 10:37 |
| zebastian | geekphreak: i have to boot from the livecd, then i have to resize something to create free space for windows | 10:37 |
| geekphreak | zebastian: i foy uinstall windows, grub is gonna be taken off , you will have to reintall grub not ubuntu | 10:37 |
| zebastian | how do i do this? what does putting windows first mean | 10:37 |
| geekphreak | zebastian: ok | 10:37 |
| iflema | zebastian because windows is fundamentaly flawed/crap... what version of winblows? | 10:38 |
| zebastian | windows 7 | 10:38 |
| theadmin | iflema: How would version matter? :/ | 10:38 |
| zebastian | but waht i mean is | 10:38 |
| muncky | erUSUL : No I'm trying to export and mount the home directory on the sda1 drive | 10:38 |
| zebastian | first i get on gparted from the livecd | 10:38 |
| zebastian | now liberating or freeing up the space | 10:38 |
| zebastian | necessary for windows | 10:38 |
| zebastian | how do i do that? | 10:38 |
| iflema | theadmin why would it not | 10:38 |
| erUSUL | muncky: that makes no sense; care to rephrase? | 10:38 |

| ubottu | rockdboat I think is what you're looking for: Interested in remastering the Ubuntu !live CD? See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization or use tools such as http://uck.sourceforge.net/ or http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/DRU_Disc_Remastering_Utility | 10:59 |

| geekphreak | tottto-drummond: april 29 | 11:00 |
| geekphreak | oh rc | 11:00 |
| tottto-drummond | yes.. it is supposed to be out today | 11:00 |
| DJones | rockdboat: geekphreak Its not something I've used, so apart from knowing about ubottu's link, thats as far as I can help | 11:00 |
| geekphreak | DJones: there was a tool for it mate, sys something , what i can think is install system in command line mode using alternate cd, , then apt-get qt new release, then use that tool to make image | 11:01 |
| geekphreak | if that ^^ made any sense | 11:02 |

| nick_fn | I was just trying to help someone who called me wanting to install UNE from a USB drive. They are having a "grub cannot read filesystem" (or unknown filesystem) error on boot - so I suggested they could write the USB image with imgwriter instead of using usb-creator.exe. Feels more robust to use a pre-made entire-disk image. Is this not supported though, as no UNE (or regular Ubuntu) img files seem to be at http://releases.ubuntu.com/karmic/ ? | 11:25 |
| geekphreak | another_reality: matter of choice | 11:25 |

| geekphreak | hi bazhang | 11:26 |
| bazhang | geekphreak, hi | 11:26 |
| geekphreak | Guest58657: , did not get your question | 11:26 |
| psycho_oreos | nick_fn, try unetbootin and use fat32 fo usb drive | 11:26 |
| Anasule | What's the best way to get in touch with people developing a package for ubuntu specificaly i would like to speak with someone from the evtouch package? | 11:26 |
| psycho_oreos | s/fo/for | 11:26 |
| erUSUL | Anasule: #ubuntu-motu | 11:26 |
| nick_fn | psycho_oreos: they spoke of trying unetbootin, but I didn't see them try it. That seems to also *create* the image, rather than just writing one that's already been created/tested? | 11:27 |
| nick_fn | I guess I could do it, then send them the img file from my own USB drive | 11:28 |
| psycho_oreos | nick_fn, no it can be used to write the image, its either download, write or create | 11:28 |
| psycho_oreos | the write part is where you specify the ISO you wish to write to the USB device | 11:29 |
| zebastian | hmm | 11:29 |
| nick_fn | psycho_oreos: Does it write the ISO to the USB drive, exactly as is? like dd would? | 11:29 |
| zebastian | that didnt work | 11:29 |
| rocket16 | another_reality: You can not expect a neutral reply from here, since I am (and many are) Ubuntu supporters. So, the best thing is to try out both, and see which one suites you. (Sorry, if I had been offtopic). | 11:29 |
| geekphreak | zebastian: what happened? | 11:29 |
| zebastian | i stuck the disk in | 11:29 |
| zebastian | and then rebooted | 11:29 |
| zebastian | it just booted onto ubuntu | 11:29 |
| psycho_oreos | nick_fn, no it wouldn't write directly like dd would, it'll create an environment to boot it up, why not just use dd directly? | 11:29 |
| Guest58657 | f8 | 11:29 |
| geekphreak | zebastian: , is cd bootable and is cdrom first boot device in bios? | 11:30 |
| Curly_Q | Wipster it seems that when you boot up that your screen blanking kicks in immediately. Have you tried shutting down those settings in the BIOS? | 11:30 |
| geekphreak | Curly_Q: howdy :) | 11:30 |
| Curly_Q | Greets to Geekphreak. How are you? | 11:30 |
| geekphreak | good bud ty | 11:30 |
| Guest58657 | yep yep | 11:30 |
| zebastian | geekphreak: the cdrom must be the first device in the bios because i was able to boot off the livecd for ubuntu | 11:30 |
| geekphreak | zebastian: is cdrom first boot device? | 11:30 |
| Curly_Q | Good to see you again. | 11:30 |
| rocket16 | zebastian: Is your BIOS configuration set properly? | 11:30 |
| nick_fn | psycho_oreos: I'm not sure I understand why simple 'raw disk iamges' are not available for USB drives, in the same way as ISO images are for CD/DVD. (I could use DD, but he could not, on Windows (easily anyway) - I mention dd to see if I understand what unetbootin does) | 11:31 |
| geekphreak | zebastian: is windows cd geniune? | 11:31 |
| zebastian | it ought to be, because the ubuntu livecd booted up | 11:31 |
| geekphreak | Curly_Q: likewise | 11:31 |
| Wipster | Curly_Q, I have not spotted any settings on screen blanking on boot, I havn't noticed any screen blanking when I boot | 11:31 |
| Guest58657 | DEL key during for BIOD | 11:31 |
| llutz | nick_fn: there is dd for win too, gnu-tools | 11:31 |
| Guest58657 | DEL key during for BIOS | 11:31 |
| geekphreak | zebastian: does windows cd boot on other systems? | 11:31 |
| rocket16 | zebastian: Then, there might be some Space related problem. Windows needs 8 MB Unallocated Space, while Ubuntu takes up all, leaving no 8 MB for Windows. | 11:31 |
| psycho_oreos | nick_fn, most likely because usual people would either write to a proper disc themselves or use unetbootin | 11:32 |
| === nand_ is now known as nand | ||
| iflema | zebastian you nee to press a key when it indicates otherwise wincds wont boot | 11:32 |
| nick_fn | llutz: I think https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/+download too - but I don't know what image he should be 'dding' to the USB drive | 11:32 |
| rocket16 | zebastian: Also, is the version XP? Vista is not supposed to have this problem. | 11:32 |
| zebastian | windows 7 | 11:32 |
| Curly_Q | Wipster when you boot can you access anything? | 11:32 |
| rocket16 | zebastian: I see, | 11:32 |
| geekphreak | zebastian: you do remember what we said, once you install windows , ubuntu grub will be washed of , you wont se ubuntu loading, you will have to reinstall grub | 11:33 |
| psycho_oreos | nick_fn, you can't tell him to use unetbootin instead? | 11:33 |
| zebastian | iflema: so i should press esc or f something to pick boot from cd? | 11:33 |
| zebastian | yes geekphreak thats fine but as long as i can install windows | 11:33 |
| zebastian | then i can reinstall grub | 11:33 |
| iflema | zebastian it prompts something like press any ker to boot CD/DVD | 11:33 |
| Wipster | Curly_Q, Not sure what you mean, I can get into BIOS but I havn't spotted any options in there for screen blanking. When I boot into ubuntu I havn't noticed any problems with blanking, except this intermitant problem when the screen blanks and I wiggle my mouse to wake it up if i am reading | 11:33 |
| Curly_Q | Wipster, I read the URL you posted. It has to do with Power Manager. That may be a BIOS setting. | 11:34 |
| nick_fn | psycho_oreos: Apparently he already tried that - but as I didn't *see it*, I don't trust any complex process I didn't watch... I shall try doing unetbootin myself in a VM, so I can send him the resulting img file or talk him through it maybe | 11:34 |
| Curly_Q | Power Management has to do with Screen Blanking. | 11:34 |
| rocket16 | zebastian: I think, pressing Esc will show a menu, and highlight the CD/DVD, and press Enter. | 11:34 |
| zebastian | ok brb | 11:35 |
| geekphreak | zebastian: how did you get this windows cd, is it even bootable ? | 11:35 |
| Curly_Q | Wipster, I ask this always to many who ask the same question you asked. Do you run a Dual Boot with Windows. If so check the Windows settings on Screen Management. | 11:35 |
| geekphreak | lol | 11:35 |
| psycho_oreos | nick_fn, unetbootin is somewhat fairly simple, if he can't get that straight then he'll probably struggle to learn imo :) | 11:35 |
| psycho_oreos | nick_fn, or maybe he's trying to write to a device that doesn't allow raw booting? like ipod lol | 11:36 |
| Wipster | Curly_Q, No I am only booting ubuntu on this computer | 11:36 |
| nick_fn | psycho_oreos: I think he'll be OK, and he probably did it correctly - but maybe some error happened he didn't notice | 11:36 |

This problem occours when I havn't used the laptop for a while and the screen darkens and blanks and I wiggle the mouse to turn it back on, sometimes very rarely this popup happens in the tray linking to that blog and about power manager bugs | 11:41 |

| rocket16 | crazy2k: You are welcome, :) | 11:42 |
| kop__ | <------ reinstall gimp :D | 11:42 |
| rocket16 | Wipster: Also, to start BIOS, you need to press F1 or F8 there, a the start | 11:42 |
| Wipster | airtonix, yeh it says a fix has been committed, not sure if its in a version thats in ubuntu however | 11:42 |
| viliny | rocket16: all mobos so far have been f2 or del for me - my 2 cents | 11:43 |
| Curly_Q | Wipster what you explained from a Technical viewpoint, you should check first the obvious, i.e., the mouse and if it is USB plug it into another USB port. | 11:43 |
| crazy2k | rocket16: If I upgrade to beta2, or the RC when it's ready, then I'll just need to check for new packages and install updates using update-manager? Or I'll have to do another upgrade? | 11:43 |
| airtonix | Wipster, i still randomly get his problem (although i've yet to see the negative aspects of the problem)... all i ever get is the tray icon crying wolf | 11:43 |
| kop__ | just have to ask if I'm the only one that goes to the bother of disabling pulseaudio ? | 11:44 |

| airtonix | kop__, also : why. | 11:44 |

| crazy2k | rocket16: Cool. | 11:45 |
| tsimpson | crazy2k: you won't have to reinstall, the RC is just an updated ISO image from the beta | 11:45 |
| kop__ | airtonix, breaks , well , it's more a question of what it doesn't break | 11:45 |
| rocket16 | crazy2k: Thanks, :) | 11:45 |
| airtonix | kop__, everything works fine for me. | 11:45 |
| Curly_Q | If a device works one day and not the other, then, it is sporadic which means that it appears to be hardware. | 11:45 |
| crazy2k | tsimpson: And so is the final release, right? | 11:45 |
| tsimpson | crazy2k: yep | 11:45 |
| Wipster | Curly_Q, I dont think its a mouse issue, but I will try anyway it does seem that its exhibiting the exact problem on the blog when it dims I hit the 50ms race with my wiggle to brighten it up, the timer doesn't reset and it proceeds to turn it off down the line | 11:46 |
| Wipster | airtonix, yeh its not a massive problem just is a bit jarring when it happens | 11:46 |
| oneBit | re :) it seems that update to 9.10 did work :) | 11:47 |
| Curly_Q | Wipster is it a USB or PS/2 mouse? | 11:47 |
| Wipster | Curly_Q, I have a usb mouse but I was using the mousepad, I think its connected to PS/2 | 11:48 |
| Curly_Q | Wipster also are you running a laptop? | 11:48 |

| friendforall | Someone using here metasploit? | 11:48 |
| Curly_Q | Which means that your laptop mouse maybe in conflict with your PS/2 | 11:49 |
| airtonix | kop__, then its not pulse-audios problem that you're not configuring the environment properly. | 11:50 |

| Curly_Q | Wipster in Windows for example there are power settings for screen saver and power management and sleep mode. I believe that Ubuntu has the very same settings. They control the BIOS at bootup. | 11:57 |
| matec | kop__, you could try to boot from the live cd and look if there problem is present there, too | 11:57 |
| hateball | !mono | 11:57 |
| airtonix | Kulych, hi, you should read the mono api first. | 11:57 |
| FunkyWeasel | Morning. I am trying to add an authentication key for skype on karmic using "sudo add-apt-respository add ppa://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/stable non-free" but I keep getting the error "need a repository as an argument". Am I getting the syntax wrong, or does the skype repo not have an authentication key? | 11:57 |
| hateball | FunkyWeasel: lose the add before ppa:// | 11:57 |
| Wipster | Curly_Q, ok well thanks for the help with this I'l live with it for the time being :) | 11:58 |
| kop__ | matec, it's been buggy from the get , and although I admit to having large portions of Deb code and repos none are even remotely connected to audio | 11:58 |
| airtonix | Curly_Q, the settings you mention do not touch the bios . | 11:58 |
| bouma | how can i get a copy of links with framebuffer support for links -g, the one with 9.10 doesnt have it and also does 9.10 with intel integrated video support a framebuffer console, i presume it does | 11:58 |
| desperate | Hi, my display HG281D, supporting 1920x1200, is stuck at 800x600. There is no etc/x11/xorg.conf. sudo Xorg -configure complains about a server already in use. sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg does NOTHING. dont know what to do next | 11:58 |
| FunkyWeasel | hateball: Same thing happens. | 11:58 |
| Kulych | I tryed "wine" but i sayed: "install windows version of mono to run .NET executables" | 11:58 |
| friendforall | how can i lock/encrypt my 2gb file? | 11:58 |
| Kulych | It's win form app | 11:58 |
| desperate | thanks BTW | 11:59 |
| geekphreak | friendforall: you can use tools? | 11:59 |
| airtonix | FunkyWeasel, because that ppa does not live at launchpad. | 11:59 |
| geekphreak | friendforall: tool name is cryptkeeper | 11:59 |
| FunkyWeasel | airtonix: Of course. Cheers! Is there any way to authenticate the skype repo? | 11:59 |
| hateball | Kulych: mono is installed by default, you so can try with "mono file.exe" | 11:59 |
| kop__ | matec, it's more of a curiosity as I have to upgrade sooner or later and as I understand it pulse/Lucid is a more mature implimentation | 11:59 |
| airtonix | Kulych, winforms do not run on linux as far as i know. | 11:59 |
| hateball | Kulych: but you might need some extra libs for... extra stuff | 11:59 |
| airtonix | FunkyWeasel, you'll need to use the old method. | 12:00 |
| VSpike | Kulych: you could try using winetricks to instsall the .net binaries into wine | 12:00 |
| Kulych | I try it. thanks ;) | 12:00 |
| Curly_Q | Airtonix, true, but when on bootup the settings see the BIOS and work accordingly. | 12:00 |
| friendforall | geekphreak, is it command line tool? | 12:00 |
| airtonix | VSpike, winetricks won't let you install dot net 3 though | 12:00 |
| geekphreak | friendforall: gui , do you want command line? | 12:00 |
| airtonix | Curly_Q, doesn't mean they are manipulating the bios. | 12:00 |
| Kulych | And is any form app on linux what i can programme in linux? | 12:01 |
| Curly_Q | I agree. What I said was for the sake of brevity. | 12:01 |
| llutz | Curly_Q: those settings just need a correct dsdt, they use acpi-functions | 12:01 |
| FunkyWeasel | airtonix: Grab a key from pgp.mit.edu and the rest of it? | 12:01 |
| friendforall | yes | 12:01 |
| geekphreak | friendforall: try bcrypt for command line | 12:01 |
| matec | kop__, i can't help you if you don't describe the problem precisely. trying the live cd wouln't be too hard... you just have to install the flash player in the live env. I think pulse is working pretty good in karmic and don't think that there are that much pulse improvments in lucid. | 12:01 |
| airtonix | FunkyWeasel, why are you getting the key from mit ? | 12:02 |
| VSpike | Kulych: you'd normally use the GTK+ bindings from mono for GUI apps with mono + linux I think | 12:02 |
| TriMe | hey anyone here give me a quick help on a database / mysql issue?? its very easy i am just dumb or too tired :P | 12:02 |
| FunkyWeasel | airtonix: Because that's what the help.ubuntu.com community/Skype page says. I can't find mention of where I would get it from otherwise. | 12:02 |
| Take0n | Hello | 12:03 |
| matec | kop__, do you use a 64bit karmic? | 12:03 |
| Curly_Q | Airtonix, what was explained was that the device works one day and when it was not being used for a while and then back to use has a problem, it seems to be a hardware issue. Perhaps the CMOS battery is tired or the main battery is weak. There are many variables. | 12:03 |
| === 16SAAG1F6 is now known as horndog | ||
| friendforall | geekphreak, ok | 12:04 |
| kop__ | matec, again , understood , the original question was if anyone went to the trouble of disabling pulse as a way of finding someone with the same problem :D | 12:04 |
| desperate | no idea, anyone? :( | 12:04 |
| VSpike | airtonix: won't it? I wonder why not? | 12:04 |
| kop__ | matec, no | 12:04 |
| Take0n | I have a problem with lucid. Almost everytime I try to boot my computer it crashes at the login window. I think it has to do with plymouth but it takes 9 out of 10 tries before I am able to login.. | 12:04 |
| bazhang | Take0n, #ubuntu+1 for lucid please | 12:05 |
| airtonix | VSpike, obvious reason : microsoft lisence prevents it. not so obvious : dont net 3 requries stuff wine does not provide. | 12:05 |
| Take0n | bazhang, sorry I forgot | 12:05 |
| desperate | Hi, my display HG281D, supporting 1920x1200, is stuck at 800x600. There is no etc/x11/xorg.conf. sudo Xorg -configure complains about a server already in use. sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg does NOTHING. dont know what to do next. | 12:06 |

| desperate | how do I stop X? | 12:07 |
| kop__ | /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 12:07 |
| VSpike | desperate: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop | 12:07 |
| VSpike | desperate: (or kdm or xdm if you are using those instead) | 12:07 |
| desperate | and to get back here? startx? | 12:07 |
| VSpike | desperate: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start | 12:08 |
| Curly_Q | Wipster, which brings us to another line of reasoning. If your CMOS battery is dead or weak, then, your computer time frame is off. If you check the date when you re-boot and see if the time and date is correct only after the computer has been sitting for a while like you said, you may find that could be your answer. | 12:08 |
| VSpike | desperate: startx is good for testing though | 12:08 |

Is that possible to backup the RAID partition configuration and restore? I heard that the RAID config is stored in each harddisk....thanks. (The power failure just makes the RAID config | 13:16 |

| Olejo | Some advice please, I am installing ubuntu and want to run other linux distributions on the HD, do I need to partition the HD when installing to do this? | 13:21 |
| IdleOne | Olejo: you can use 1 /home and different / for each distro. So yes you would need to partition | 13:22 |
| syli725 | Olejo, each linux distribution has to install to a different parition. | 13:22 |
| IdleOne | !separatehome > Olejo | 13:22 |
| ubottu | Olejo, please see my private message | 13:22 |
| syli725 | Olejo, IdleOne is right. / has to be different. swap can be the same. | 13:22 |
| allu2 | ör :S doesn't empathy really have tab complete? | 13:23 |
| IdleOne | Olejo: so basically /home and /swap can be shared | 13:23 |
| Olejo | Hmm! I am very new to linux, I will get confused :) | 13:23 |
| Urda | I need some scripting help! I need to grab the percentage number from this output http://pastie.org/929595 in a script for Graphing purposes. | 13:24 |
| IdleOne | Olejo: read that link ubottu gave you about creating a separate /home | 13:24 |
| brontosaurusrex | Olejo: you need to separate 'boot' = root partitions, home could be the same, also swap can be the same | 13:24 |
| Olejo | Can I learn about linux with Ubuntu or should i use other distributions? | 13:25 |
| syli725 | Olejo, to install a linux, at minimum, you need to have / and swap the two partitions. /home and /boot etc.. can all be under / partition. To simple the answer. / has to be in different partition. swap can be shared. | 13:25 |
| IdleOne | Olejo: yes you can learn about linux using ubuntu | 13:26 |
| IdleOne | Olejo: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Karmic#Installing_Ubuntu | 13:26 |

| ubottu | Beelsebob: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 14:26 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | RegressLess: system administration hardware drivers list any drivers for wireless? | 18:24 |
| xplinux | yes i have it | 18:24 |
| blue112 | hi DavidJHeinrich1 | 18:24 |
| xangua | xplinux: then open synaptic, reload the repositories and you will see the new vuze version aviable | 18:24 |
| BedMan | devkhadka: do you have a firewall set up? look into ufw man pages | 18:24 |
| === renorstorm is now known as trocontra | ||
| RegressLess | LinuxGuy2009: there's nothing listed | 18:25 |
| blue112 | Well, I should try to reboot now. | 18:25 |
| LzrdKing | adelcampo: wubi->ext4, gnome->bare openbox, samba shares->nfs shares, and it went from 100% cpu playing SD video in boxee and HD not being playtable at all to <20% cpu playing some 720p (cartoons, mainly) and <80% on others | 18:25 |
| xplinux | but firefox dont know the app protocol for istall the pack from this page debian | 18:25 |
| devkhadka | BedMan, ok i ll see | 18:25 |
| BedMan | blue112: good luck with that :) | 18:25 |
| blue112 | BedMan, thanks :D | 18:25 |

| RegressLess | LinuxGuy2009: this is what I get for buying a fancy computer | 18:26 |
| DavidJHeinrich1 | do you guys know what stuff in Ubuntu uses the GPU? (aside from compiz). Does Blender or Inkscape use it for rendering? I'm trying to figure out if I will suffer any performance losses going to an HTPC GPU. (I don't do gaming, but do do blender & inkscape work, & photo-editing of 1 giga-pixel files scanned from 4x5's). I also watch downloaded 1080p movies. And I will at some point be outputting to 2048x1536 CRT, 2650x1600 | 18:26 |
| Exposure367 | evening everybody | 18:27 |
| BedMan | devkhadka: check to see if it's listening on your other interfaces with netstat -an | grep 3000 | 18:27 |
| xplinux | xangua now work , now i have the last version of vuze thans you | 18:27 |
| adelcampo | LzardKing that sounds considerable | 18:27 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | RegressLess: that machine have a switch to turn wireless off/on? or in bios? made sure its on? | 18:28 |
| urthmover | network startup order: Is it possible for me to specify the order in which my network interfaces come up during boot? | 18:28 |
| xplinux | but i can not download files from page debian | 18:28 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | DavidJHeinrich1: never heard of an htpc gpu. | 18:28 |
| BedMan | DavidJHeinrich1: the X11 drivers are what implements the things a GPU can do, and all that stuff would be impacted by a change in graphics hardware. | 18:29 |
| RegressLess | LinuxGuy2009: Yes, I mentioned that it may be off, but I don't know how to check or turn it on. In windows, it's been glitchy and is always off when I boot up. | 18:29 |
| Craiggles | so, do you guys think 10.04 will be available next week? :) | 18:29 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | DavidJHeinrich1: there are gpu's and then there are gpu's | 18:29 |
| erUSUL | DavidJHeinrich1: only thing i know of is video display acceleration with cuda ( vdpau ) | 18:29 |
| DavidJHeinrich1 | LinuxGuy2009: HTPC GPU = HD5450 or 4650. Right now, I'm on 4670 with fan...I guess that's close. | 18:29 |
| IdleOne | Craiggles: Please /join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion. | 18:29 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | mrec: brasero, k3b, buy nero linux 4 like i did? | 18:31 |
| DavidJHeinrich1 | so what about the consequences of going to a 3-display setup? Will that slow things down on modern GPUs? Right now, I'm with 4670 on a 2048x1536 CRT. If I add 2 outputs (2560x1600 & 1900x1080), will that slow things down substantially? | 18:32 |
| Losha | mrec: LinuxGuy2009: I don't trust brasero, but I'd like to know what k3b says about your available burn speeds... | 18:32 |
| mrec | LinuxGuy2009: I'd buy nero if I'd burn cds much more often .. but I only burn cds 1-2times a half year maybe | 18:32 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | DavidJHeinrich1: whats a 3 desktop setup? 3 monitors you mean? | 18:32 |
| mrec | I'm checking with k3b now | 18:33 |
| BedMan | DavidJHeinrich1: for normal graphics operations (eg. not gaming) it shouldn't be a big impact | 18:33 |

| BedMan | DavidJHeinrich1: they do, and you can pick up a 54" LCD, but the 42" CRT is a back-breaker | 18:35 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | crt are ancient | 18:35 |

| DavidJHeinrich1 | BedMan: those 3 monitors would take the total resolution outputted to 9.3 megapixels. Is that gonna screw up the GPU? (I know the IBM T221's had problems being driven b/c they were 9mp LCDs, but that had partlyto do with only accepting single-link DVI | 18:36 |
| Losha | Shammah: only if it's technical & ubuntu related. Social chat is on #ubuntu-offtopic... | 18:37 |

| idlemind | jordan_u: agreed =) hence i'm looking at the xorg.conf i guess to force it to use my new intel driver | 18:47 |
| NucWin | is it right to use " " for the command in crontab if im using switches? | 18:47 |
| Jordan_U | LinuxGuy2009: In what way is it unreliable at verifying sucessfull burn? | 18:47 |

| Pici | NucWin: Firstly, you dont need the /1, just * will suffice. Also, I'm not sure if its recreated in your crontab, but I see a weird character between the hour and dom field. Additionally, make sure that you have a newline at the end of your crontab, sometimes that can mess thigns up. | 18:48 |
| idlemind | linuxguy2009: at this time i'm still going to have to compile a new kernel on 10.04 to get the wireless going unless it gets backported | 18:48 |
| Jordan_U | LinuxGuy2009: Even with a lower speed burn? | 18:48 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | no i gave up on burning with free linux tools | 18:48 |
| RegressLess | h00k: I just thought it would be an easy question. | 18:48 |
| h00k | RegressLess: it depends on your wireless card | 18:48 |

| gunther44 | .10 | 18:50 |
| gunther44 | h00k: ^^ | 18:50 |
| Jordan_U | idlemind: Even if you do need a new kernel there is much less likelyhood of user space / kernel mismatch problems with 10.04. | 18:50 |
| gunther44 | h00k, i should still be able to manually update right? | 18:50 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Just so everyone is clear I am NOT here for help with burning. Nero works better than the free stuff so thats why I bought it. Get over it. | 18:50 |
| xangua | gunther44: then update or install the more recent version | 18:50 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | gmonnie: make sure all recomends and suggests are installed for brasero maybe? | 18:57 |

| gmonnie | where do i find those | 18:57 |
| Jordan_U | azlon: Are you sure you typed the command correctly? | 18:58 |

| azlon | TomG: i understand... i have sda through sdi... but i just added another drive and i need to format it. the problem is that i dont know where it was added. with other drives it adds it as /dev/sdc but i need to verify this is correct | 18:58 |
| BedMan | makah: I'd use perl for that, it's better with pattern matching | 18:58 |
| devkhadka | BedMan, ok i ll see it | 18:58 |

| xplinux | the support must be from ubuntu | 19:57 |

| SpamapS | though that would normally produce a quick "connection refused" | 20:03 |
| Pici | heauxbag: postgres is only listening on localhost, that means that only localhost can connect. You need to modify your postgres config file to have it listen on 0.0.0.0 | 20:04 |
| heauxbag | Pici: trying to connect from my machine | 20:04 |

| h00k | !hello | 20:34 |
| daz_the_farmer | hello | 20:34 |
| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 20:34 |
| coz_ | daz_the_farmer, it is the servers they are coming from | 20:34 |
| Dmitry | poshel nahuj | 20:34 |
| cyy | is there some way to say "only allow process X to use n GB of RAM, then force it into swap space even if more RAM is available"? | 20:34 |
| coz_ | daz_the_farmer, you may be hitting a server for ubuntu that is being hit hard | 20:34 |
| andresp | any one know a working trick to mask an ip into a USA Ip in ubuntu? | 20:35 |
| daz_the_farmer | how can i change servers | 20:35 |
| coz_ | daz_the_farmer, I personally never really see a difference unless ubuntu servers are being hit | 20:35 |
| === libertiy is now known as libertiy|away | ||
| coz_ | daz_the_farmer, I wouldnt do that... just assume that many are now downloading from the servers | 20:35 |
| andresp | anyone? | 20:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | cyy, your suggestion doesn't make any sense, why use swap that would slow the entire system, why physical memory is available? I doubt it's an option. | 20:36 |
| daz_the_farmer | ok thanx COZ | 20:36 |
| cyy | multiple users are using the system | 20:36 |
| coz_ | andresp, I am not sure I am a dunce with networking on any level :) | 20:36 |
| h00k | andresp: I guess you'd have to find a proxy to use | 20:36 |
| cyy | so I want to limit how much physical RAM each is allocated | 20:36 |
| coz_ | daz_the_farmer, just have some patience with it ...it will eventually speed up | 20:36 |
| daz_the_farmer | will try | 20:36 |
| coz_ | daz_the_farmer, remember ubuntu is becoming much more poplular | 20:36 |
| cyy | limiting it on a per-user instead of per-process basis is fine too | 20:36 |
| andresp | thanks h00k but in order to watch hulu proxy sucks :( | 20:36 |
| xplinux | where is supported ylmfos ubuntu xp? | 20:37 |
| daz_the_farmer | im always using ubuntu but lately slow download speed | 20:37 |

| mbeierl | tried googling, can't seem to get an answer. Does anyone here know what "livezone" is? It installed itself and a cron job and seemed to pretend to be an HTTP daemon, but it really appears to be a bot of some sort... | 20:40 |
| fdsa_ | anyone know where i can get some gdb help? | 20:41 |
| Pici | mbeierl: I don't see any packages in our archives that provide that file.... I'd check your auth log. | 20:41 |
| guntbert | mbeierl: I don't remember anything "installing itself" - there always had to be a "do it" with root permissions | 20:42 |

| mcsmurf | hi, are there any common problems one can make when using cfdisk + mkfs.ext3? Just wondering as I tried to partition a disk today; cfdisk then told me the partition was 41GB, but after creating the fs with mkfs.ext3 and mounted it, df -h showed me the partition had 350MB | 20:44 |
| mcsmurf | well, I then used gparted and that worked fine.. | 20:44 |
| CQ | question... does or doesn't LUKS have a timeout option in /etc/crypttab ? several sites mention it, http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=495509 mentions it's removal ... | 20:44 |
| mcsmurf | s/problems/mistakes | 20:44 |
| CQ | looked in the crypttab manpage, didn't see it, didn't see it in mount manpage either, but sometimes those options are in other manpages where I don''t think to look... | 20:44 |
| dotnetted | anyone know how long an LVPM transfer of a 30GB wufi installation usually takes? | 20:44 |
| dotnetted | wubi* | 20:45 |
| mbeierl | guntbert: Pici: sorry - I just discovered this on a shared desktop machine at work. and NO - to the best of my knowledge it did NOT come from any package. | 20:46 |
| Barkhorn | CQ, it is timeout=<sec> according to my manpage | 20:46 |
| mbeierl | guntbert: Pici: I'm just pinging here to see if anyone's heard of it. It appears in google references from about 2004, but no one really seems to have discovered its purpose :( | 20:47 |
| guntbert | mbeierl: that cron job: is it a root cron or a user cron? | 20:47 |
| CQ | Barkhorn: which manpage? | 20:48 |
| Barkhorn | CQ, crypttab | 20:48 |
| mbeierl | guntbert: user. | 20:48 |
| mbeierl | guntbert: and it appears to have been running since Feb. 2010 so the auth logs, etc, are long gone | 20:49 |
| CQ | Barkhorn: ??? I'm running 9.10, and my cryptsetup has the option, crypttab doesn't ... | 20:49 |
| guntbert | mbeierl: then you know which user installed it - ask that one | 20:49 |
| Barkhorn | CQ, i'm on 8.04 and the man page lists it | 20:49 |
| mbeierl | guntbert: they have no clue how it got there... | 20:49 |
| CQ | Barkhorn: look at the bug link, debian took it out at some point... | 20:50 |
| mbeierl | guntbert: that's why I thought I'd just do a quick ask in a public place to see if anyone recognized the term, or if it's even relevant anymore. | 20:50 |
| Galaxor | Is there a way to backup an ntfs partition to another ntfs partition, preserving all the ntfs-related permissions and attributes? | 20:51 |
| mbeierl | guntbert: it appears that it was a trojan (perhaps) of some sort that was in vogue around 6 years ago | 20:51 |
| guntbert | mbeierl: ah yes - I suppose your best way is to get rid of it :-)) | 20:51 |
| === juan__ is now known as fosscon | ||
| switch10_ | Galaxor: you should be able to do that with rsync with the --perms option | 20:52 |
| mbeierl | guntbert: yep. thanks for the ideas though. I hate just simply "deleting things" without really knowing the root cause or the potential for damage that might have been there... | 20:53 |
| helo | gnome-games-common | 20:53 |
| switch10_ | Galaxor: I have never tested rsync with NTFS myself though... But I don't see why it wouldn't work | 20:53 |
| Galaxor | switch10_: What about other NTFS attributes, like "Read only" and "hidden"? | 20:53 |
| heauxbag | ok, i had this question before. im trying to connect to postgresql on port 5432, and the connection keeps timing out. netstat tells me its listening for tcp connections on the correct port, and this time its listening for inbound connections instead of just on localhost. iptables seems to be allowing connections too. is there anything else that could be refusing the connection? | 20:53 |
| heauxbag | i just talked to the guys in #postgresql, and all of the pgsql stuff should be configured to allow for inbound connections | 20:54 |
| joaopinto | mbeierl, is it installed as root ? | 20:54 |
| switch10_ | Galaxor: take a look at man rsync. the -a option should cover you... | 20:54 |
| guntbert | mbeierl: I know the feeling - did you *hm* search in the user's home? | 20:54 |
| FriedrichMan | hey | 20:54 |
| mbeierl | joaopinto: no, fortunately not. It was just as a user and their crontab | 20:54 |
| Exposure531 | evening | 20:54 |
| mbeierl | guntbert: YES :) ! | 20:54 |
| FriedrichMan | how can I do a reverse ip lookup from console | 20:55 |
| llutz | FriedrichMan: dig -x | 20:55 |
| Pici | FriedrichMan: dig -x | 20:55 |
| erUSUL | FriedrichMan: dig ? whois ? | 20:55 |
| mbeierl | guntbert: oddly, I found a .livezone directory complete with a makefile of some sort. | 20:55 |
| Name141 | Hello, I installed Ubuntu on an old machine and restart works without a hitch. However, when I go to shut the machine down I get "system halted" and it doesn't turn off. Although I can hear the hard drive spin down and click off. | 20:55 |
| Galaxor | switch10_: Y'know, I don't think --perms would work, though, because the linux driver for ntfs ignores the NTFS groups/users/permissions and mounts it so that everything on the NTFS filesystem appears to have the same user, group, and permissions. | 20:55 |
| guntbert | mbeierl: the date of that directory could give a hint... | 20:56 |
| Galaxor | switch10_: that's why everything appears to be executable when I look at my NTFS partition. | 20:56 |
| FriedrichMan | mmm... maybe it's not exactly what I am talking about... I mean I found this site http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/web-sites-on-web-server/ with this tool to find out what websites are hosted on a server... and was wondering if that's possible from console | 20:56 |
| Name141 | Then I have to press the power button for it to go completly off. | 20:56 |
| duffydack | I`d personally just either dd or clonezilla | 20:57 |
| Galaxor | switch10_: I guess there's a chance that the ntfs driver implements the NTFS attributes as "ext3 acls", and rsync knows how to read those. | 20:57 |
| duffydack | to clone an ntfs | 20:57 |
| switch10_ | Galaxor: yeah I wouldn't know for sure. I can't remember the last time Ive used NTFS. all I could suggest is test it with a single small dir to see if it does what you want | 20:57 |
| LzrdKing | clonezilla? | 20:57 |
| Nehmulos | clonezilla rocks | 20:57 |
| Galaxor | duffydack: That's what I've been doing, but I don't like that I have to clone the entire filesystem, rather than syncing. | 20:57 |
| mbeierl | guntbert: the "src" files date to 2004. some of the executable output dates at 2010 Feb 28. User does not recall anything on that date | 20:58 |
| melanie_ | -m irc.tweakers.net | 20:58 |
| Name141 | is the power managetment settings needing to be changed or something? | 20:58 |
| LzrdKing | Name141: sounds lie it doen't have a "soft" power switch. AT maybe? | 20:58 |

| LzrdKing | Name141: then maybe it is the pwer settings somewhere, but i don;t know | 20:59 |
| guntbert | mbeierl: I was thinking about ls -ld .livezone -- the date of the directory itself :-) - but if the user "doesn't remember" then .... (but I guess it was enough to warn him off for the future :-)) | 20:59 |
| TomG | Name141: I have that same issue only when I turn the ACPI off (my DVD drive doesn't work otherwise). | 21:00 |
| joaopinto | it's a bot which exploits phpMyAdmin | 21:00 |

| sebsebseb | ubuntu: you can run most Ubuntu/Gnome programs in Xubuntu as well | 21:03 |
| joaopinto | LzrdKing, there are been virus/bots exploiting known security vulnerabilities a long time ago, years and years ago :) | 21:03 |
| ubuntu | I just noticed my username, I am on a live cd, it must be the defult | 21:03 |
| TomG | LzrdKing: There are viruses. The thing is, after you take out the ones that don't work anymore / on your distro, you end up with very few actually harmful. | 21:04 |
| sebsebseb | ubuntu: altough, f-spot is a Mono app, it's not realy a Gnome app. just wanted to be clear there | 21:04 |
| sebsebseb | ubuntulog: most programs that will run in Ubuntu will also work in Xubuntu, that's what I mean | 21:04 |

| TechMondo | hello | 21:05 |
| dotnetted | I used the LVPM tool to transfer my Wubi installation to /dev/sda6. When I boot I see a grub menu with only "Unknown OS" and "Windows". If I choose "Unknown OS" it takes me to the original Wubi bootloader. Any ideas appreciated ;) | 21:05 |
| mbeierl | joaopinto: guntbert: the good news is this "dos" never appeared to have occurred. The proc has been active for months now and the box that it was on remained passive :) Teaches us not to ignore shared desktops | 21:05 |
| LzrdKing | Name141: it means the cpu has powered down | 21:05 |
| stones | Ok guys, your netbook install sucks :/ | 21:05 |
| Barkhorn | LzrdKing, have a look at nm-tool output | 21:05 |
| stones | heh, ive tried on several netbooks and no luck. | 21:06 |
| LzrdKing | Name141: and you can safetly turn it off | 21:06 |
| Name141 | LzrdKing: meaning it should be safe to just press the power button for the machine to go off? | 21:06 |
| sebsebseb | LzrdKing: malware can be made for modern versions of Linux distro's however it's not that likely, since how Linux distros tend to be designed so to be mor secure than Windows, but also the lack of market share | 21:06 |
| Name141 | LzrdKing: OK ,other than annoyance I should be OK? | 21:06 |
| joaopinto | mbeierl, how you know it has been passive, how do you known it didn't infect other machines :) ? | 21:06 |
| synapse | can someone tell me what the 2>&1 when piping a command to /dev/null means? $command > /dev/null 2>&1 & | 21:06 |
| LasseK | Hello, are there any known problems with watching movies straight from an NTFS partition? | 21:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | sebsebseb, tick tick - the market share thing is a quasi-myth. Look at servers, why infect desktops when servers would have so much more power/inpact. | 21:06 |
| synapse | or where to lookup redirection for shell scripting | 21:07 |
| LzrdKing | i thikn the "lack of market share" is meaningless; there are/were viruses for mobile devices that had tiny market shares | 21:07 |

| LzrdKing | Barkhorn: i will check out nm-tool | 21:07 |
| TomG | synapse: /dev/null means get rid of it. | 21:07 |
| joaopinto | ZykoticK9, except that servers are usually managed by skilled people, unlike desktops :) | 21:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | stones, linux servers | 21:07 |
| sebsebseb | ZykoticK9: most of the web is run by Linux or Unix servers, and yes they do get attacked as far as I know quite a lot of them a lot of the time, and how often do you hear about a website being broken in to? not that often at all, and if you do it probablyy was run by Windows , and yep off topic | 21:08 |
| duffydack | Macs have a larget market share than linux, not as many as windows but still a nice chunk.. how come more virus/malware are not focused on them ? | 21:08 |
| synapse | so it pipes all stdout/sderr messages to /dev/null while doing the entire thing in the background? | 21:08 |
| duffydack | larget=larger* | 21:08 |

| bondiblueos9 | amosek: so I'll be able to remove it later with apt-get remove? | 21:27 |
| amosek | bondiblueos9: yes apt is only a frontend for dpkg | 21:28 |
| Barkhorn | LzrdKing, didn't know you don't have it, i thought you just wanted to monitor the link. yes it needs the NetworkManager daemon. If you don't like that you could have a look at wicd | 21:28 |
| LzrdKing | but what a front end it is, downloading deps automatically | 21:28 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Are the alternate CDs any different in the way they are created. I know that the regular CDs appear to be a pre made file system thats copied to the HDD when installed. Does the alternate CDs have all of the packages that are used to build the system? Like can the alternate disk be used as a repo source to remove and then reinstall gnome for example for an offline machine by getting the packages off of the CD rather than the internet as | 21:29 |
| johnwedd | sKAApGIF, there we go, thank you so much, did i just clean out the crap from dpkg and then update | 21:29 |
| LzrdKing | Barkhorn: its just more stuff to have running and bog down the box | 21:29 |
| wise_crypt | sebsebseb: i see, trying to update it just now | 21:29 |
| LzrdKing | is aptitude a frontend for apt? | 21:30 |
| Diverdude | Does there exist an alarmclock for ubuntu? | 21:30 |
| j0k3r | hi | 21:30 |
| coz_ | LzrdKing, sort of yes | 21:30 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Diverdude: There is an alarm clock applet in lucid. | 21:30 |
| amosek | LzrdKing: a ncurses-based-gui for apt? :D | 21:30 |
| coz_ | LzrdKing, I generally see "frontend" as an actual gui but hey | 21:31 |
| LzrdKing | i hate aptitude, i don;t know what the sodes it uses mean, so i'm always left wondering if its going to install something or not | 21:31 |
| LzrdKing | codes* | 21:31 |
| bondiblueos9 | I hate aptitude too | 21:31 |
| johnwedd | LzrdKing, use synaptic | 21:31 |
| bondiblueos9 | I should probably take the time to figure it out | 21:31 |
| coz_ | LzrdKing, I personally never use apititude | 21:31 |
| bondiblueos9 | I just use apt-get | 21:31 |
| tarzeau | i like aptitude | 21:31 |
| helo | aptitude is a lot better than apt-get | 21:31 |
| amosek | coz_: so shall i call apt an overlay for dpkg rather than frontend? | 21:31 |
| fosscon | can someone tell me what a box-like character in the terminal means? | 21:32 |
| tarzeau | bondiblueos9: apt-get fails often on ubuntu, that's why i like aptitude better here | 21:32 |
| fosscon | like | 21:32 |
| fosscon | 00 | 21:32 |
| fosscon | 02 | 21:32 |
| coz_ | amosek, mm :) perhaps | 21:32 |
| FloodBot4 | fosscon: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 21:32 |
| sKAApGIF | johnwedd: exactly, from the dpgk man page: dpkg --clear-avail | 21:32 |
| sKAApGIF | Erase the existing information about what packages are available. | 21:32 |
| helo | in situations where apt-get will just give up, aptitude will tell you what your options really are | 21:32 |
| tarzeau | fosscon: the font doesn't have the glyph | 21:32 |
| fosscon | but | 21:32 |
| LzrdKing | i never had apt-get fail when i gave it a correct package name | 21:32 |
| switch10_ | apt-get fails??? I have never seen this.. t | 21:32 |
| fosscon | does that mean that it is ascii character 2? | 21:32 |
| tarzeau | LzrdKing: i had | 21:32 |
| Kills | how do i block a site on my laptop? | 21:32 |
| helo | will automatically remove packages when you remove the only package that uses it, etc | 21:32 |
| tarzeau | switch10_: see what helo says | 21:32 |
| amosek | switch10_: unless u offline | 21:32 |
| bondiblueos9 | well, let me specify: I don't feel comfortable using the aptitude text gui when it is called with no arguments | 21:32 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | So nobody has a clue if the alternate CD has the actual raw packages for gnome and stuff on it? | 21:32 |
| j0k3r | ask google | 21:32 |
| coz_ | LzrdKing, same here... however I have had aptitude make a mess of things | 21:33 |
| tarzeau | Kills: put the hostname in /etc/hosts | 21:33 |
| Diverdude | Linkadmin2, i have only version 9.10. Is there an alarclock in ubuntu 9.10 ? | 21:33 |
| LzrdKing | helo: it will tell you next time you use that there are packages that nothing is using and you can remove them with apt-get autoremove | 21:33 |
| sKAApGIF | johnwedd: your dpgk was probably trying to download a file from the internet which no longer exists. by deleting the old information on available packages and updating, dpgk should now try to download the correct file from the internet | 21:33 |
| coz_ | LinuxGuy2009, it should have all the same files on the cd the install is different however | 21:33 |
| LzrdKing | sKAApGIF: dpkg can download? | 21:33 |
| coachj | Error getting file: -6: Not Supported anyone know why i am getting this copying mp3 off my sansa | 21:33 |
| johnwedd | sKAApGIF, ahhh i see, i'll remember that, thanks for the help | 21:33 |
| h00k | coachj: you might have to install 'lame' first | 21:33 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | coz_: That doesnt explain it at all. hehe | 21:33 |
| amosek | LzrdKing: i dont thinks that it can | 21:34 |
| helo | looks like a lot of the functionality from aptitude has been added to apt-get | 21:34 |
| switch10_ | in my opinion there is no real difference between the 2. aptitude has the browser thing, thats about it. I still like apt-get. | 21:34 |
| amosek | LzrdKing: *think | 21:34 |
| coachj | itLinuxGuy it will play them fine, does that rule out lame as the problem | 21:34 |
| sKAApGIF | johnwedd: no problem ;), it doesn't happen very often though | 21:34 |
| h00k | switch10_: aptitude contains more logics than apt-get as far as resolving problems | 21:34 |
| Diverdude | Is there an alamrclock available for ubuntu 9.10 ? | 21:34 |
| coz_ | Diverdude, mm I believe so hold on | 21:35 |
| Kills | in which place do I need to put it exactly | 21:35 |
| coachj | hook: mp3s play fine, could it still be Lame? | 21:35 |
| LzrdKing | switch10_: my #1 difference is that apt-get says "i'm going to download and install these deps, is that ok?" aptidute tells me "here are deps" and i have no idea if its going to get them or not | 21:35 |
| sKAApGIF | Kills: blocking a website isn't all that straight forward... but it can be done, what website would you like to block | 21:35 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | What i mean is on the CDs there is a pool folder for the actual deb packages. The regular CD only has just a few packages there. Does the alternate CD contain just the same few packages or does it contain all of the packages used by the installed system? | 21:35 |

| Diverdude | coz_, hmm could it be that my /etc/atp/sources.list is completely empty? | 21:45 |
| bondiblueos9 | switch10_ / LinuxGuy2009 : so I think you've established that drives normally move their heads out of dodge when power is cut, but there is a chance this won't happen, in which case your drive is ruined; I was more concerned about potential system configuration cleanup etc that happens at shutdown, and also write-cacheing which I had forgotten about but you reminded me of | 21:45 |

| windgat | I've been out of the gaming scene for quite a while now; can anyone tell me a bit more about steam? | 22:11 |
| CaptainTrek | windgat: go to steam.com and read up | 22:11 |
| noqturnal1 | anyone have a moment to help me with a partition issue? It involves permissions and writing | 22:11 |
| bondiblueos9 | windgat, what about steam? | 22:11 |
| Razion | Steam doesn't run on Linux...? | 22:11 |
| bondiblueos9 | steam was running on mhy linux | 22:11 |
| j0k3r | Welcome to Steam ,, | 22:12 |
| bondiblueos9 | with wine, of course | 22:12 |
| Razion | Really? I had thought it could only be used for dedicated servers. | 22:12 |
| j0k3r | how did u do it ? | 22:12 |
| digitalstimulus | check #winehq | 22:12 |
| Razion | Ah. Is wine actually useful enough to run Steam games nowadays? xD | 22:12 |
| windgat | I gather that it's a gaming content delivery platform, but doe sthat mean that I will be able to play all those other games that have been unavailable to us until now, on my linux system? | 22:12 |
| bondiblueos9 | I followed the instructions on some site, haha; I don't remember exactly, but it wasn't too difficult | 22:12 |
| noqturnal1 | could really use some help | 22:12 |
| digitalstimulus | windgat, I play Steam games daily. check winehq.org and the channel #winehq | 22:12 |
| Razion | Theoretically, if you can get one Source Engine game to run on Wine, you can get all of them to run, Windgat. | 22:12 |
| windgat | thanks | 22:13 |
| Razion | HL2, CS:S, Orange Box, Gmod...All the same game, basically. | 22:13 |
| windgat | so it simply runs games *emulated* via wine; now "natively" in a kind of VM? | 22:13 |
| windgat | s/now/not/ | 22:13 |
| taofd | I would like to force my clock to sync with servers, is there a way to do this? | 22:13 |
| Losha | noqturnal1: no promises, but do you want to say more about your problem? | 22:14 |
| bondiblueos9 | windgat: I'm not sure if that's accurate | 22:14 |
| noqturnal1 | doorbell | 22:14 |
| bondiblueos9 | windgat: I think wine just provides the missing windows stuff, just enough of it | 22:14 |
| windgat | 'cause I see steam has been poerted to mac (beta), so something closer to bare-metal would be possible on *nix | 22:14 |
| Losha | taofd: ntp does exactly that. You can also do a one-time update using ntpdate e.g. sudo /usr/sbin/ntpdate utcnist.colorado.edu | 22:15 |
| titilcuite | leave | 22:15 |

| h00k | !sound | fumbles | 22:31 |
| ubottu | fumbles: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 22:31 |
| Losha | nada: cut -d expects a delimiter i.e. a character it can use to tell where the columns start and end. See man cut | 22:31 |

| llutz | Losha: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Files_transferred_over_shell_protocol | 22:38 |

| moreia | bondiblueos9: can mean a lot of things. | 22:40 |
| kwtm | Losha: File transfer over SSh. Very ingenious: as long as you can log into a computer (via SSh), you can manipulate files remotely: upload, download, rename, etc. | 22:40 |
| Some_Person | barbarella: I used a firefox extension to pipe the download to wget | 22:40 |

| moreia | bondiblueos9: It happened to me when I'd done some bad things to permissions and turned off the execute flag on a directory | 22:40 |

| moreia | bondiblueos9: or sudo chmod. | 22:41 |
| Losha | kwtm: weird how you can go years and never hear of something. I'd never heard of it, and it been around for years... | 22:41 |
| barbarella | Some_Person:the data is still the same, so check the url | 22:41 |
| moreia | bondiblueos9: look at the permissions of the containing folder. | 22:41 |
| Some_Person | barbarella: The URL and file name would not be the same though | 22:41 |
| bondiblueos9 | moreia: I guess I'll do that when I need to; I can still sudo to use the files | 22:41 |
| jaydee | is there someone who can help with installing ar928x driver on netoobk? | 22:41 |
| dotnetted | I want to mount /dev/sda5 to /data and then set /data/home to be the default /home directory - what's the best way of doing that? | 22:42 |

| bondiblueos9 | moreia: at least its just on an external data drive and not on my system or anything I actually need permissions on | 22:42 |

| Ahmed\ | Evolution mail doesn't refresh every 10 minutes HUH @_@ what do i do | 22:42 |
| bondiblueos9 | moreia: no, actually, its just happening when I create a file on my zfs drive on my mac, then export the pool and import it on ubuntu | 22:42 |
| barbarella | Some_Person:what are you downloading if i may ask? | 22:42 |
| Some_Person | barbarella: Windows 7 | 22:43 |
| moreia | bondiblueos9: I can't remember how I did that to myself, but I think no one owned the directory, or I'd removed the x permission from it or something. Definitely related. | 22:43 |
| llutz | dotnetted: add it to /etc/fstab"/dev/sda5 /data ext4 defaults 0 0" and after tthat line"/home /data/home none bind 0 0" | 22:43 |
| Losha | dotnetted: the easiest way is to do the mount and then create a soft link from /home to /data/home e.g. ln -s /data/home /home. | 22:43 |
| Some_Person | barbarella: And no, it's not piracy. I'm getting it from Microsoft TechNet | 22:43 |

Here is the Link to download: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mawgzzzzz3t Also, even if you are not willing to review, you are welcome to download and read this small PDF (26 Pages). All advice are welcome. (Sorry if I might have been offropic). | 23:05 |

| ByteJuggler | norbi: I know gnome stays on your disk, i'm suggesting that's perhaps easier initially | 23:06 |
| ByteJuggler | you pick the session to use on logon | 23:06 |
| xangua | rocket16: ¬¬................ | 23:06 |
| rocket16 | xangua: Yes? | 23:06 |
| xangua | rocket16: then why not use the !ot channel¿ | 23:06 |
| ByteJuggler | (there's a drop down where you can then pick whether to use gnome, pek, xfce, kde ...) | 23:06 |
| ByteJuggler | you can then uninstall gnome | 23:06 |
| ByteJuggler | after you logged into pek | 23:06 |

| jeff_hann | rocket16, it's not a PDF | 23:06 |
| rocket16 | xangua: Actually, the reason is that, the people there hate newcomers, and drive them away, :( | 23:07 |
| rocket16 | jeff_hann: It is, it is just compressed to .zip. | 23:07 |
| jeff_hann | I uncompressed it, it's a ODT file | 23:07 |
| norbi905 | ByteJuggler, thanks will give a try as soon as I back up my files from this installation. Thank you. By the way, where in my home folder is the file where X looks for the window manager to start? | 23:07 |
| ByteJuggler | norbi: If you really want to start from scratch, there's an ubuntu minimalist cd | 23:08 |
| jeff_hann | norbi905, .xinitrc | 23:08 |
| ByteJuggler | which installs basically just the core sytsem | 23:08 |
| ByteJuggler | no GUI | 23:08 |
| ByteJuggler | then you can install packages as you wish by hand | 23:08 |
| norbi905 | ByteJuggler, that's probably what i'm looking for, will look into it thanks. I will however give it a try the way you suggested previously. | 23:08 |
| ByteJuggler | sure | 23:09 |
| norbi905 | jeff_hann, .xinitrc is not within my home folder :( | 23:09 |
| jeff_hann | norbi905, then write one | 23:09 |
| jeff_hann | norbi905, it's "exec <path to window manager>" | 23:09 |
| jeff_hann | it's that simple | 23:10 |
| rocket16 | jeff_hann: Oops, sorry, :( I gave a wrong File. The link is http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?yiykuzm0mjy Sorry, :( | 23:10 |
| ByteJuggler | norbi, I think gdm also remembers what wm you used | 23:10 |
| ByteJuggler | when you log in | 23:10 |
| ByteJuggler | i forget where though | 23:10 |
| jnss | hi how do i lock my screen | 23:11 |
| norbi905 | jeff_hann, Thank you for that, however, in this case that .xinitrc does not exist, how does X know what to start? | 23:11 |
| jnss | i run gnome and intrepid | 23:11 |
| jnss | hope 8.10 is still supported | 23:11 |
| ActionParsnip | rocket16: nice doc dude, i'd add simdock to your list of docks for those who dont use compositing | 23:11 |
| jeff_hann | norbi905, it takes the global settings from /etc/X11 | 23:11 |
| ActionParsnip | jnss: not for much longer | 23:11 |
| jnss | but i was wodnering if there was a quick keycombo that will let me lock the sceren for when i take a pee or something | 23:11 |
| Faratl | I have downloaded virtual box and made a machine but it keeps telling me no bootable media found any suggestions? | 23:11 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: Thanks, :D I will gladly add it to the PDF, :D | 23:11 |
| mattgyver | How could i reroute all audio (music, notifications) from one machine to another machine? Can this be accomplished with MPD? | 23:12 |
| norbi905 | Faratl, make sure you attach an .iso to the VM or boot it off the native CD/DVD rom drive | 23:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Faratl: you need to config the box to boot an installation media to setup an OS on the box | 23:12 |

| ubottu | bigga: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 23:15 |

| Faratl | Oh, windows XP | 23:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Razion: can you otab complete its name in terminal? | 23:20 |
| Pici | Faratl: Then you need the Windows XP install CD. | 23:20 |
| Pici | Faratl: And a license for it. | 23:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Faratl: then you will need a valid XP license and an install media | 23:21 |
| Faratl | Ok | 23:21 |
| hehehe | ok i will use a word then | 23:21 |
| hehehe | or name | 23:21 |
| Razion | ActionParsnip: No. I know the name of the application, but apparently it doesn't feel like existing/launching by its name. | 23:22 |
| techhelper1 | i see, the cursur goes for like 5 seconds then nothing | 23:22 |
| techhelper1 | cursor* | 23:22 |
| techhelper1 | see if you run the app in terminal to see if it has errors | 23:22 |
| Losha | Razion: go to /var/cache/apt/archive and find the deb package for the application. Is it there? | 23:22 |
| hehehe | jeff_hann what if i use 2 letters? | 23:22 |
| hehehe | like initials | 23:23 |

| hehehe | .:P | 23:33 |
| Losha | hal1: So you don't have windows, your cdrom is broken and you don't have usb? Is that right? | 23:34 |
| hal1 | ActionParsnip: there is no floppy! ;-( | 23:34 |
| hal1 | yes | 23:34 |
| hal1 | Losha: | 23:34 |
| zaxonspox | hal1 take the laptop hdd to another pc, and install there tubuntu, then put back hdd into laptop | 23:34 |
| jeff_hann | that is the hostname | 23:34 |
| jeff_hann | aka <user>@<username> | 23:34 |
| Losha | hal1: so how did you copy from the install dvd to a partition? | 23:34 |
| jeff_hann | sorry | 23:34 |
| hal1 | Losha: on another machine | 23:34 |
| jeff_hann | <suer>@<hostname> | 23:34 |
| jeff_hann | *user | 23:35 |
| Vigo | ah, ok,,, | 23:35 |
| hehehe | jeff_hann oh yes.. so i was always talking about hostname | 23:35 |
| hal1 | zaxonspox: I do not want to install over my main PC | 23:35 |
| zaxonspox | hal1 why? it is no problem, it will work after switching hdd back to laptop | 23:35 |
| Losha | hal1: I think you want to use unetbootin: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ See the 'frugal install' option | 23:35 |
| hehehe | jeff_hann when i install ubuntu it creates a hostname based on USER right? | 23:36 |
| hal1 | Losha: that is how I copied the files from the cd to the partition | 23:36 |
| simun | hello | 23:36 |
| jeff_hann | hehehe, no | 23:36 |
| hehehe | thats why i wanted to use a letter for USER so it would be the same for hostname | 23:36 |
| Losha | hal1: you might've mentioned that 10 minutes ago... | 23:36 |
| delac | hehehe: yes. something like user-desktop | 23:36 |
| hehehe | then i would change the USER | 23:36 |
| zaxonspox | hehehe you can change the hostname even with your normal username | 23:37 |
| simun | can somebody help me? | 23:37 |
| hal1 | zaxonspox: it is not guaranteed to work because the autodetect process during install on the PC will not have loaded the correct drivers for the laptop | 23:37 |
| Vigo | hal1: Did you try a NetInstall? | 23:37 |
| hal1 | Losha: I did - a number of times over the last few hours | 23:37 |

| zaxonspox | hal1 once i did that and all have worked | 23:37 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: Almost all hardware detection is done at boot. | 23:37 |
| hal1 | Vigo: I am trying to find an easier way | 23:37 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: The only exceptions being things that you need to configure yourself, like proprietary drivers. | 23:38 |
| hal1 | I just find it really difficult to understand why what I want to do is not possible | 23:38 |
| zaxonspox | hehehe what folders? there is a folder constaining the hostname, you only change that entry | 23:38 |
| hal1 | it has all the files there that it needs - from the livecd | 23:38 |
| hal1 | why can't it just boot from that partition and install? | 23:38 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: You need a bootloader, have you installed one? | 23:38 |
| Vigo | hal1: Ok, here is the link if you want it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot | 23:39 |
| nsadmin | perhaps because there's not an installer present? | 23:39 |
| kitche | hal1: because you need a boot loader to understand on how to boot from that partition | 23:39 |
| hal1 | thanks vigo - I will try that once I have exhausted other options | 23:39 |
| Subby | Hi, do I need a new sources.list für Releas Candidate 10.04? Because I don't get any new updates the last days | 23:39 |
| hehehe | zaxonspox what i want to do is like this (username)@(letter) dffsdffs@x i.e | 23:39 |
| nsadmin | I mean, they could have done it... but maybe they didn't | 23:39 |
| hal1 | kitche: surely anything that is done at the bootloader can be done at the boot CLI? | 23:39 |
| Flamey | Any idea why video playback gets really choppy after I've played FlightGear, only gets back to normal after I reboot. | 23:40 |
| hal1 | it's just parameters for initrd, isn't it? | 23:40 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: You can't get to a CLI without having a bootloader. | 23:40 |
| Losha | Subby: ask on #ubuntu+1 | 23:40 |
| hal1 | Jordan_U: I can get to the boot: menu, and I can get to the busybox cli | 23:40 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: What did you pass for the root= parameter? | 23:41 |
| zaxonspox | hehehe the hostname is in file /etc/hostname | 23:41 |
| hal1 | Jordan_U: good point - I didn't! ;-) | 23:41 |
| hehehe | so my last question is: can i change hostname easily? | 23:41 |
| hal1 | Jordan_U: I used this to boot tho... | 23:41 |
| Jordan_U | !hostname | hehehe | 23:41 |
| ubottu | hehehe: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. | 23:41 |
| hal1 | --> /casper/cmlinuz initrd=/casper/initrd.lz | 23:42 |
| === neutrino is now known as tar- | ||
| delac | hehehe: READ THIS: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=774029 | 23:42 |
| hal1 | damn | 23:42 |
| hehehe | tks Jordan_U | 23:42 |
| hal1 | --> /casper/vmlinuz initrd=/casper/initrd.lz | 23:42 |
| zaxonspox | hehehe if you set a normal username and after that change the hostname name it could looks like username@x | 23:42 |
| hehehe | k i got it | 23:42 |
| hal1 | Jordan_U: do I need a root parameter to get it to run the install processes? | 23:42 |
| ByteJuggler | hal1: the problem is those files are inside the ISO image... | 23:42 |
| ByteJuggler | you need an initrd to get bootstrapped enough to be able to mount the ISO | 23:43 |
| ByteJuggler | (I think) | 23:43 |
| hal1 | ByteJuggler: no, the livecd iso has been extracted - the partition looks exactly the same as it would if you browse the livecd | 23:43 |
| ByteJuggler | ah | 23:43 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: The kernel is loaded by the bootloader, so it's only the bootloader that knows where the root filesystem is unless you pass a root= paramerter, like root=/dev/sdb1 | 23:43 |
| ByteJuggler | ic | 23:43 |
| Jefferson | i ai | 23:44 |
| bobby_ | Anybody here not using Lucid? | 23:44 |
| Jefferson | pessoal | 23:44 |
| Pici | bobby_ : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion. | 23:44 |
| ByteJuggler | bobby: well, depends on your definition of "use" | 23:44 |
| jaydee | jeff? | 23:44 |
| nsadmin | hal1: do you have the install guide? if you're finding that people who are around at the moment can't help you with the exact custom flavor with all the specific bells and whistles you want on your special install, maybe you can piece together your own solution from the install guide | 23:44 |
| hehehe | delac tks for the link | 23:44 |
| jeff_hann | jaydee, I ask this for the 3rd time | 23:44 |
| ByteJuggler | bobby: but yes (although the others are rapidly diminishing) | 23:44 |
| jeff_hann | ask in the channel | 23:44 |
| Losha | bobby_: diehard 8.04 user here... | 23:45 |
| hal1 | nsadmin: I know what you mean, but I really don't need any "bells and whistles" apart from it to start the install process | 23:45 |
| ByteJuggler | (also still have 8.04 hardy on my main "server" box) | 23:45 |
| nsadmin | but you're still having problems finding people that know how to do what you're interested in doing? | 23:46 |
| ByteJuggler | hal1: frankly, if i was in your shoes, i'd do a minimalist install using another pc | 23:46 |
| ByteJuggler | on the disk in question | 23:46 |
| ByteJuggler | (e.g. the laptop disk) | 23:46 |
| ByteJuggler | and then boot from that and install further by hand | 23:46 |
| hal1 | ok, what is /isolinux/isolinux.bin? | 23:47 |
| ByteJuggler | (I might even do a full install -- Linux is very good at "just working" on alternate hardware) | 23:47 |
| nsadmin | what is the deal exactly... no net to the laptop? can't boot a cd? | 23:47 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: Not usefull for you. | 23:47 |
| ByteJuggler | nsadmin: yes | 23:47 |
| nsadmin | so no net AND can't boot a cd? | 23:47 |
| ByteJuggler | nsadmin: essentially -- no cd, no usb, not sure about network | 23:47 |
| zaxonspox | hal1 linux is POSIX standard compatible, use you PC with Laptop HDD to install Ubuntu. It will work | 23:47 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: Try setting root= before anything else. | 23:47 |
| ByteJuggler | nsadmin : no floppy either | 23:47 |
| hal1 | nsadmin: no DVDROM, no floppy. Yes, there is the net, but that is a hassle to set up, so I would rather avoid it | 23:48 |
| hal1 | Jordan_U: what should I set it to? | 23:48 |
| Jordan_U | zaxonspox: POSIX has nothing to do with hardware compatability. | 23:48 |
| jaydee | jeff? | 23:48 |
| Losha | hal1: hassle is relative. You're not exactly having an easy time of it now... | 23:48 |
| jeff_hann | jaydee, yes | 23:48 |
| nsadmin | so you want to avoid the ways that would create ease for the helpers | 23:48 |
| hal1 | Losha: no, but I am not giving up | 23:48 |
| nsadmin | how much money you got? | 23:48 |
| jaydee | fially | 23:48 |
| hal1 | nsadmin: how is that relevant? | 23:49 |
| jaydee | how do i use pastebin? | 23:49 |
| jeff_hann | did you go to paste.ubuntu.com ? | 23:49 |
| jaydee | i paste the error in the box there and noW? | 23:49 |
| Losha | jaydee: nothing to it. Go to http://ubuntu.pastebin.com, type something in, hit submit, then tell us the url | 23:49 |
| jaydee | NO PASTEBIN | 23:49 |
| jaydee | oh thanks | 23:50 |
| nsadmin | jaydee: do you see your paste on the site | 23:50 |
| jaydee | im new sry | 23:50 |
| jeff_hann | jaydee, the url = the address | 23:50 |

| Razion | How do I find out what my video card is in Linux? :P | 23:50 |
| jaydee | thx | 23:50 |
| jeff_hann | Razion, lspci -vv | grep VGA | 23:50 |
| zaxonspox | Razio sudo lspci | grep VGA | 23:50 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: /dev/sdXX, where XX is the drive, a letter where the first drive is a, the second b etc and a number (the partition number, in your case probably 1) | 23:50 |
| jeff_hann | Razion, no need for sudo | 23:51 |
| Razion | jeff_hann: Yeah, I know. It just gave me a list of options...Which one shows me what card it is? :P | 23:51 |
| hal1 | Jordan_U: thank you, I will try that! But what exactly will start the install process? What file will be executed? | 23:51 |
| jeff_hann | did you type exactly as I said? | 23:51 |
| merlin2049er | hey, anyone know how to burn a (.bin or .cue) file? | 23:52 |
| Razion | jeff_hann: Nope. xD Forgot the pipe. | 23:52 |
| zaxonspox | Razion dont use -vv use simple lspci | 23:52 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: If all goes well you will be brought to a full live Ubuntu system with an install icon on the desktop. | 23:52 |
| jeff_hann | zaxonspox, why should he not use '-vv' ? | 23:52 |
| ByteJuggler | hmm, nero image eh? | 23:53 |
| Razion | Well. It didn't come up with -vv anyways. | 23:53 |
| merlin2049er | no | 23:53 |
| Razion | -vv gave me a cryptic list. | 23:53 |
| merlin2049er | i got brassero | 23:53 |
| merlin2049er | and gnome bake | 23:53 |
| === adante_ is now known as adante | ||
| Razion | Ugh. it's an onboard. So how the heck do I find a driver for it? | 23:53 |
| jeff_hann | ok, use without -vv :-) | 23:53 |
| jeff_hann | what board is it? | 23:53 |
| zaxonspox | jeff_hann: beacuse i always get the name of video card by simple lspci, now i tested your cmd and didnt see name of my video card | 23:54 |
| jaydee | is it right now> | 23:54 |
| jaydee | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/5fGEDs6X | 23:54 |
| hal1 | Jordan_U: if that works, how could I then install ubuntu onto the rest of the disk? | 23:54 |
| jaydee | ? | 23:54 |
| jeff_hann | zaxonspox, the line before the last is your card | 23:54 |
| ByteJuggler | merlin: I think brasero supports cue files | 23:54 |
| ByteJuggler | merlin: so you should be able to use it | 23:54 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: You're going to have problems installing to the same disk you are booting from. | 23:54 |
| hal1 | hmm :-/ | 23:55 |
| Razion | It's a P4M80 [S3 unichrome Pro] | 23:55 |
| jeff_hann | jaydee, put 'sudo' in front of 'make' | 23:55 |
| zaxonspox | jeff_hann: ok, but not line from last, i get 5th from the last | 23:55 |
| jaydee | its the same message | 23:55 |
| jeff_hann | jaydee, then put su -c make | 23:55 |
| ByteJuggler | hal: If you leave enough free space for a new instalaltion partition | 23:55 |
| ByteJuggler | you should be ok | 23:55 |
| ByteJuggler | even if it's teh same disk | 23:55 |
| ByteJuggler | (touch wood) | 23:56 |
| jaydee | i try | 23:56 |
| FloodBot4 | ByteJuggler: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:56 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: You don't have any flash drive? | 23:56 |
| ByteJuggler | lol@floodbot4 | 23:56 |
| hehehe | jeff_hann "what is your name | 23:56 |
| hehehe | jeff_hann "what is your name " | 23:56 |
| jeff_hann | hehehe, sorry? | 23:56 |
| hehehe | sorry.. jeff_hann "what is your name?" is the hostname | 23:56 |
| hehehe | right? | 23:56 |
| jaydee | asking for a password | 23:56 |
| ByteJuggler | jordan_u: he has no usb, no cd, no floppy, only net (which is a hassle to set up)... | 23:56 |
| Razion | My mobo is a It's a P4M80 [S3 unichrome Pro video]. So where might I find a linux driver for it? | 23:56 |
| hehehe | jeff_hann im installing ubunu.. | 23:57 |
| hal1 | Jordan_U: yes, but I can't boot from it | 23:57 |
| jeff_hann | jaydee, well, enter the password | 23:57 |
| hehehe | jeff_hann im installing ubuntu. | 23:57 |
| Pici | hehehe: No, it wants to know what your name is. | 23:57 |
| jaydee | which? | 23:57 |
| jeff_hann | hehehe, type in your name | 23:57 |
| Losha | Can someone talk to me about when/why to clip & zoom in dvd::rip? | 23:57 |
| hehehe | ok but it will use that name for hostname? | 23:57 |
| hehehe | just asking | 23:57 |
| Pici | hehehe: No, it will prompt you for the hostname | 23:57 |
| hehehe | hm ok | 23:57 |
| Pici | Losha: I'd be happy to explain in -offtopic | 23:58 |
| jeff_hann | jaydee, wait; type in another terminal window 'sudo su -c passwd' then choose a password | 23:58 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: You don't need to be able to boot from it, you just need to put the iso (*not* the contents of the iso) on it. | 23:58 |
| jeff_hann | jaydee, then type that password | 23:58 |
| jaydee | ok | 23:58 |
| hehehe | and login name is the username@ | 23:58 |
| zaxonspox | hehehe yes | 23:59 |
| delac | hehehe: yes | 23:59 |
| delac | hehehe: and the username-desktop is the hostname | 23:59 |
| delac | hehehe: but you can change it | 23:59 |
| hal1 | Jordan_U: I don't understand - how would that work? | 23:59 |
| hal1 | Jordan_U: what would I do then? | 23:59 |
| jaydee | its the same error again | 23:59 |
| abstrakt | where are hotkey settings? | 23:59 |
| jeff_hann | jaydee, impossible | 23:59 |
| Jordan_U | hal1: Then you can pass the parameter iso-scan/filename=/path/to/iso to the kernel and it will load itself from the iso file on the flash drive. | 23:59 |
