ussherI've screwed something up. I installed tomcat6 though 'sudo apt-get' and it was working.  then followed some directions online to try to allow 'tomcat' user to have write permissions to a diretory.  that failed an tomcat wouldnt start.  I purged, re-installed and now cant start again.... what does "sh: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory" mean?08:47
ussherit appears in apt-get output and also when trying to start tomcat608:48
well_laid_lawncwd is   current working dir08:49
ussherwould that generally be made by apt, or did i remove it when trying to get rid of tomcat6 maybe?  purging didnt work totally so i removed all the tomcat directories i could find.08:50
bronlari wont blow it up if i set it too high it will revert after 15s08:51
well_laid_lawnussher: were you in your home dir when running the  purge?08:52
usshercould have been, didnt take much notice.08:53
ussherwell_laid_lawn: yes i was08:54
well_laid_lawnussher: getcwd() will be a function that is called during the removal - it must not be written right for your system08:55
ussherthanks well_laid_lawn.  Ill try doing an install of tomcat6 without using apt-get and see if i can get it to go that way.  cheers08:55
well_laid_lawnussher: tried removing the user "tomcat" ?08:55
Hamraso aptitude says it wants to upgrade libc6 on Lucid....08:57
Hamraisn't that package NOT supposed to be upgraded after a release? or am i missing something?08:58
well_laid_lawnthere might be a bug in it or it doesn't agree with something or...08:59
bazhangHamra, updates today?09:00
bronlarlaters all09:00
ussherwell_laid_lawn: that did something.  sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat6 start gets the OK for starting now.  but with the extra line of "start-stop-daemon: user 'tomcat6' not found"09:00
Hamrathe update has been on hold for me since Wed, 19 May 201009:00
Hamrai am checking the changelog, it seems to be 2 security updates to it09:00
well_laid_lawnussher: the purge and reinstall will now recreate it with the defualts for user tomcat09:01
bazhangHamra, I seem to recall gettting that a day or so ago as well09:01
Hamrai just dont want to break my system. first nvidia breaks it, then a kernel upgrade breaks it... and now it's asking to upgrade libc6, i'm kinda scared to approve upgrades anymore ;P09:01
Hamrabut it seems the general libc6 version won't change, so i'll assume that's safe....09:02
ussherwell_laid_lawn: purged then reinstalled but still "start-stop-daemon: user 'tomcat6' not found"09:04
well_laid_lawnussher: I was sure it would have created the user tomcat like the initial install did09:05

rabbywell_laid_lawn: i am not sure if it is because of the nvidia card. when scrolling down and back again, the font is readable. going on with scrolling, it is broken again etc.10:37
well_laid_lawnrabby: might be the monitor refresh rate then10:37
Adityabrabby: It is because of nVidia10:38

zushey bazhang ... so if i down loaded an iso i can mount it and not have to burn to a disc?14:35
bazhangzus, what are you trying to do? you can use the loopback option as well14:36
bazhang!iso14:36
ubottuTo mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.14:36

bazhangzus, if its a video iso vlc can view it14:37
zuswell, when i ran reason my  friend had only the iso and we used magic disc to  create a virtual drive and i was able to use the program....14:38
zuscan i use magic disc in wine and run the iso14:38
bazhangyou can certainly try, though there may be better ways to do it without wine14:38
bazhangcheck the appdb and ask in #wineheq if that is what you wish to do14:39

ubuntu_I've a new HD what partition should I create for a new install of Kubuntu?20:12
ubuntu_*partions*20:12
zusubuntu_, are you asking for sizing?20:18
ubuntu_yes, how many partitions and their sizes20:19
ubuntu_maybe a 20 GB partiton for the OS and the rest of the drive for home?20:21
InvaderZimWhich command does the Kde Shutdown button performs? I know it's not shutdown -h now or poweroff.20:22
zusubuntu_,  8 is good but about 15 gigs for root comfortably, and personally i have yet  to fill that up and i have tons of stuff to try out what i like20:29
zusubuntu_,  the swap is always up for debate... i have 2 gigs so i made 1 gig for swap. i dont even use hibernate or sleep. my pc is on or off. and home go for  as much as you can if you're like me and download and right click save as everything cool on the net :)20:31
zusi just reinstalled kubuntu  with a 20 gig partition so i can grab the virtualbox... why havent i done that b4 i dont know20:32
ubuntu_zus: thanks for the info :)20:34
ubuntu_and the reminder about swap :/20:34
zusubuntu_,  thats my own personal adventure mind you20:34
zusthere are much better documentation out there but i still awake 48hours  when i began the fresh install and mucking about20:35
ubuntu_lol20:35
ubuntu_my last 2 or 3 re-installs only took about 20 minutes each, followed by several days of tweaking the settings and installing all the extra bits20:36
zusmy home  was part of ubuntu karic install i deleted the root part and kept the home but when i moved the empty space over, i lost EVERYTHING20:36
ubuntu_did you have a backup??20:37
zusyeah a few minute to alocate partiitons and 20 min for the install...20:37
zusthat was my back up20:37
zusbut then throw in dinner, my tv shows. interents and the googles20:38
zus= 48 lol  another 16 i might get them micro naps from nightmare on elmstreet20:38
zusi cant for the life of me figure out why ktorrent isnt letting more than 3 downloads at a time...even though i set it to unlimited....20:39
* ubuntu_ installs Kubuntu20:41
zusdoes any one know what could be wrong with my ktorrent?20:43
gorgonizerzus: what version of ktorrent are you using?20:47
zusgorgonizer,  3.3.420:48
gorgonizerzus: did you set the download speed to unlimited, or the Maximum Downloads settings to No Limit?20:50
zusgorgonizer,  mmm i didnt realize there was a diference.. till just now.20:51
zusgorgonizer,  the maximum download speed is no limit20:52
gorgonizerzus: in ktorrent settings is there a queue manager section?20:52
zusthe maximum downloads also is at no limit20:52
Flakeparadigm(Lucid) In google chrome, if I use flash that has audio, it works but from that point on no audio except for flash in google chrome works. Any idea on what's up? I can't find anything online20:53
gorgonizerconnection limit options zus: okay, can you check the maximum connections per torrent and the global (should be in the network section)20:54
zusgorgonizer,  yeah in the queue settings the first opition was no limit20:54
gorgonizer zus: okay, can you check the maximum connections per torrent and the global connection limit options (should be in the network section)20:54
zusgorgonizer,  looking for  the global setting20:55
zusgorgonizer,  its at 90020:55
zusmax connection per torrent is 12020:56
=== jimiha is now known as yamba
smithjdis there a channel for xorg-edgers?20:57
gorgonizerzus, so if you only have 3 downloading. then you should have plenty of connections left over... are you uploading any torrents at the moment?20:57
zusgorgonizer,  well i had 4 torrents but one was stalled till  one just finished...20:58
douglasis this #ubuntu?20:58
zusdougl,  its #kubuntu20:58
zusdouglas, ^20:58
douglasoh crud20:59
gorgonizerzus: can you set the Maximum Downloads in Queue Manager to something like 20, rather than No Limit, as it does appear that there is still something limiting ktorrent..20:59
douglashow do i get to #ubuntu?20:59
zusdouglas,  /join #ubuntu20:59
zusgorgonizer,   when i had 8 downloads  as one finished the other began... i had to  stop seeding a  frew files to figure that out21:01
gorgonizerzus: in total (both uploads and downloads) how many torrents are running in KTorrent21:03
gorgonizeras it may be that the 900 Global Connection Limit is too low for the the torrents you are accessing..21:03
zusim not uploading anything i got  one file seeding and 2 downloading one stalled21:03
zusthe stalled one  is a t o/o seeds/leech so thats  prolly why its stalled. but ive been chasing this  all day21:04
zusgorgonizer,  by uploading you dont mean the  "upspeed"?21:06
gorgonizerzus: that would explain why that is stalled... your settings are very similar to what I have (and had in ktorrent 3.3.4) so I find this a bit weird..21:06
gorgonizerzus: by uploading I am referring tot he torrents that are seeding...21:06
zusim calling this  stalled one a no go its not doing anything wich leaves me with  2 down 1 up21:08
gorgonizerzus: can you restart ktorrent then try adding more torrents to ktorrent, to see if the problem still occurs?21:09
zusgorgonizer,  i've restarted a few times before, some of the previously stalled torrents  have begun downloading only after i did21:10
=== jarrett is now known as Vegeta
gorgonizerzus: I get that issue sometimes.. though not as much with ktorrent 421:11
zusas for adding more torrents. i've got what i want there isnt anything  i'd like to get right now21:12
zushow can upgrade to ktorent 4?21:13
gorgonizerzus: okay, it would seem that your ktorrent is correctly configured to download more that 3 torrents, though if you set No Limit on the number of torrent downloads, you may wish to up the Global Connection Limit value..21:14
zusyeah i just dont want a cap on how many dl's and ups i can do everything else i leave default cuz i dont know21:15
zusi will check out if its been filed as a bug. or something...if its just me  i can be pebkac...21:16
gorgonizerzus: I have 2 housemates using the same connection, so I have to limit my ktorrent, unfortunately..21:16
zusthough even my pirate bay  search within ktorrent  only half of it appears21:17
zusyeah there is 3 peopl on the net here but not  during the work day so i have to be done by 521:17
zusi got s 33 minutes left on  one file and s 1 day on another21:18
