p1oooop | jan247: thank ActionParsnip too... he did most of the work | 00:00 |
ActionParsnip | network bsc pays for itself huh | 00:00 |
jan247 | ActionParsnip: hehe, thanks as well | 00:01 |
p1oooop | anyone know a good guide to a mailserver under ubuntu? | 00:02 |
ActionParsnip | np bro | 00:02 |
ActionParsnip | p1oooop: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer | 00:02 |
p1oooop | thanks :) | 00:02 |
p1oooop | awesome | 00:02 |
jan247 | I wonder though, so that means that any service that relies on a consistent tcp connection is maxed out serving ~65k clients at a time right? | 00:03 |
ActionParsnip | jan247: no, you can have multiple connections on the same port but the sessions will be handled by the session layer in the OSI model | 00:03 |
jan247 | ActionParsnip: I see. however, outgoing connections each uses up different ports right? | 00:04 |
ActionParsnip | jan247: depends o the protocol, ftp does but many don't | 00:05 |
ActionParsnip | on* | 00:05 |
Roasted | I thought intel cards were a sure fire win with ubuntu. Why am I having trouble with ubuntu wireless AGAIN? I have an intel card. fml. | 00:05 |
jan247 | ActionParsnip: ok, got it. tnx again for clearing that up | 00:05 |
QuidRagPro | wow this room is kind of sour | 00:06 |

p1oooop | Roasted: what card are you running? | 00:07 |
ActionParsnip | Roasted: sudo lshw -C network | grep -i product will tell you what chip it uses | 00:08 |
Roasted | Intel BG 2200 Pro | 00:08 |
Roasted | supposed rated as 100% working out of box. Worked fine for 5 mins, then magically wouldnt connect. | 00:08 |
p1oooop | Roasted: sometimes some cards are not enabled in the kernel conf or they don't have the necessary drivers in the kernel | 00:08 |
Roasted | Going to continuously ping google and watch it and see if it drops again | 00:08 |
p1oooop | hmm | 00:09 |
Roasted | it said it was connected, yet I couldnt connect to my samba sure. sure enough, samba was fine. tried to refresh the page I was on in firefox, errors out. Disconnected from wifi, tried to reconnect, wouldnt ever reconnect. | 00:09 |
Roasted | so I just rebooted, connected fine. | 00:09 |
Roasted | but like I said, pinging google's dns server continuously till it errors out | 00:09 |
ActionParsnip | Roasted: can you ping web based names and / or IPs? | 00:09 |
Roasted | ActionParsnip, yes | 00:09 |
ActionParsnip | Roasted: can you bring up web pages ok? | 00:09 |
Roasted | ActionParsnip, everything is perfect - for about 5 minutes. | 00:10 |
p1oooop | slow internel... lol | 00:10 |
p1oooop | *internet | 00:10 |
Roasted | then I just lost connection. No errors. Said connected. | 00:10 |
Roasted | I just flat out lost connection | 00:10 |
DrGrov | Enlightenment 17 on Ubuntu 10.04? | 00:10 |

p1oooop | Roasted: it's in the kernel... not a kernel problem | 00:11 |
ActionParsnip | s3r3n1t7: he can paste to a text file, reboot get conected and pastebin | 00:11 |
DrGrov | ActionParsnip: well nice, I finally got a good topic to read. | 00:11 |
ActionParsnip | DrGrov: the ppa has a lucid folder :) | 00:12 |
s3r3n1t7 | ActionParsnip, if he thinks bout it ... good luck (and thanks for helpin so many ppl) | 00:12 |

ActionParsnip | s3r3n1t7: np man, fun to help. I get zero issues here due to limited use and intelligent purchasing | 00:13 |
ActionParsnip | s3r3n1t7: so it kinda teaches me the OS | 00:13 |
p1oooop | I'm in for a few years... still learning :P | 00:14 |
s3r3n1t7 | ActionParsnip, i know how that feels although i'm once again stuck on writing a plan for our new IT infra structure ... the fun | 00:14 |
p1oooop | not the hardest thing in the world... | 00:14 |
GArReT | hey guys, I've plugged my wireless USB card into my ubuntu computer, but I cant seem to find it anywhere... where can i find hardware and if ubuntu was able to install that hardware? | 00:14 |
ThiagoMedeiros | can someone help me to install my mouse? microsoft wireless presenter 8000 (bluetooth) | 00:14 |
p1oooop | confusing, fustrating, but ultimately pretty rewarding | 00:14 |
p1oooop | ThiagoMedeiros: I'm afraid bluetooth has limited support under linux | 00:15 |
MaRk-I | GArReT: lsusb | 00:15 |
Roasted | almost 500 successful pings | 00:15 |
s3r3n1t7 | GArReT, generally it's found and installed when you plug it in. Can you see a wireless network icon top right? | 00:15 |
ThiagoMedeiros | ploooop =/ | 00:15 |
p1oooop | ThiagoMedeiros: what ubuntu release are you running | 00:15 |
ThiagoMedeiros | 10.04 | 00:16 |
GArReT | s3r3n1t7, its not actually a wireless device... it has wireless functionality, but its actually a modem that connects me to the internet | 00:16 |
GArReT | MaRk-I, do i Download that? | 00:16 |
s3r3n1t7 | GArReT, lsusb is a command you can run in a !cli | 00:16 |
MaRk-I | GArReT: no, you type lsusb in terminal and it lists the usb devices detected | 00:16 |
p1oooop | ThiagoMedeiros: I'll see if bluetooth pointing devices are supported | 00:16 |
timposey | can anyone tell me why my cellphone is not recognized on one of my ubuntu computers and will not charge when I plug it in? anyone have any idea of what to check. | 00:16 |
ActionParsnip | GArReT: sudo lshw -C network websearch for the product line to find guides | 00:17 |
GArReT | ok but if my modem is listed there? will it work? or do i need to get the drivers for it?? since i think there is only windows drivers.... | 00:17 |
MK13 | Would dd'ing one NTFS partition to another one like 'dd if=/dev/sdx1 of=/dev/sdy1' then lengthening the partition on sdy (sdx is smaller than sdy) work to create a clone of a harddrive which houses an OS? | 00:17 |
ActionParsnip | timposey: it should charge in any usb port, regardless of OS | 00:17 |
taylor_ | okay, i put ubuntu on a separate computer and it took up the whole drive... No Windows is left... I have a boot disk for it. Ive booted it up more than once now, and every time i try it tells me it needs another driver to write over ubuntu... What do I do?!? | 00:18 |
ThiagoMedeiros | p1oooop: ok | 00:18 |
GArReT | i'm just having a hard time connecting to the internet via my modem on ubuntu :( | 00:18 |
GArReT | ok but let me try that first | 00:18 |
ActionParsnip | MK13: i'd ask in ##windows too | 00:18 |
=== slidinghorn is now known as SlidingHorn_out |
timposey | ActionParsnip, it does on every other computer, and shows up as a usb type jump drive, but not on this system. | 00:18 |
MK13 | ActionParsnip: but is the idea atleast sound? | 00:18 |
ActionParsnip | MK13: makes sense | 00:18 |
MK13 | ActionParsnip: ok, thanks | 00:19 |
ActionParsnip | timposey: sounds like a dead port, usb has a pin for +5V which charges devices and/or gives them power, so if its not charging the port is dead assuming you use the same cable | 00:19 |
p1oooop | ThiagoMedeiros: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=227057&highlight=bluetooth+mouse here's a guide | 00:20 |
taylor_ | okay, i put ubuntu on a separate computer and it took up the whole drive... No Windows is left... I have a boot disk for it. Ive booted it up more than once now, and every time i try it tells me it needs another driver to write over ubuntu... What do I do?!? | 00:21 |
timposey | ActionParsnip; it was a bad cable... I was pulling my hair out with that one, because the cable works with everything else.. | 00:22 |
p1oooop | taylor_: windows tells you that? | 00:22 |
GArReT | Guys, Does ubuntu have drivers for all hardware, or only most of them? | 00:22 |
maco | GArReT: most | 00:22 |
GArReT | hmmm so for example if i plug in a webcam... what will ubuntu tell me? | 00:23 |
taylor_ | @Ploooop yeah when i boot it from the disk, but i doesnt tell me what driver... | 00:23 |
maco | GArReT: it wont tell you anything. either it'll just magically work when you try a webcam-using program, or it won't | 00:23 |
ActionParsnip | timposey: weird, oh well you got the gold | 00:23 |
maco | GArReT: the "dmesg" command will tell you what the kernel's saying about stuff. you can see an event in there saying something was plugged in | 00:24 |
GArReT | you see my problem is that i DONT know when it is working or not working.... It's like I said, I plugged my modem into my ubuntu PC, but I dont know if he installed it and what to do next!! | 00:24 |
dugger5688 | taylor_: Windows won't recognize ext (the filesystem used by ubuntu). A fresh install of windows will be able to reformat the drive back to FAT/NTFS. The ubuntu live CD can also format a drive to anything you would nedd. | 00:24 |
timposey | GArRet; It has had drivers for most everything that I have ever had to use, you can use drivers that come with some items even though they were not specifically made to work with ubuntu | 00:24 |
timposey | ActionParsnip; thanks.. | 00:24 |
maco | GArReT: i think modems require wvdial to configure | 00:25 |
taylor_ | @dugger5688 so i just need a ubuntu live disk to get rid of ubuntu?!? | 00:25 |
ActionParsnip | dugger5688: www.fs-driver.org gives read access to ext3 and ext2 | 00:25 |
dugger5688 | taylor_: read my post again. | 00:25 |
dugger5688 | ActionParsnip: I know that, but he's talking about a windows boot disk. | 00:25 |
R3cur51v3 | How do you completely, temporarily disable the firewall? | 00:25 |
ActionParsnip | dugger5688: gotcha | 00:26 |
D3RGPS31 | any downsides to 64bit? | 00:26 |
taylor_ | @dugger5688 so i just need to format the drive on a ubuntu live disk | 00:26 |
dugger5688 | D#RGPS31: some people say that flash is moody but no problems here. Also u need more memory for it. | 00:26 |
taylor_ | ? | 00:26 |
dugger5688 | taylor_: That or a windows install CD (assuming you want to get rid of ubuntu) | 00:26 |
ActionParsnip | D3RGPS31: some manufacturers dont give drives for 32bit and some apps that arent on the repos arent 64bit so you will have to manually satisfy 32bit deps manually | 00:26 |
D3RGPS31 | dugger5688: i won't need more than 650K :3 | 00:26 |
D3RGPS31 | ActionParsnip: ty | 00:27 |
dugger5688 | Uhhh, yeah you will.... | 00:27 |
D3RGPS31 | dugger5688: i was playing a joke on what Gate's said :< | 00:27 |
ActionParsnip | D3RGPS31: id say use 64bit if your cpu is 64bit | 00:27 |
dugger5688 | lol, nice. | 00:27 |
dugger5688 | my bad. | 00:27 |
D3RGPS31 | dugger5688: darn rite it is | 00:27 |
taylor_ | @dugger5688 yeah i have ubuntu on this netbook here. and im gonna go remove ubuntu frm the 10.04 LTS desktop thanks | 00:28 |
trickx51 | I wanted to know if there was a way to run ubuntu from a flashdrive with different applications then the ones already installed | 00:28 |
dugger5688 | trickx51: make a persistent install and boot it, install the software. It should retain the software from then on. | 00:28 |
ActionParsnip | trickx51: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization customise the iso then transfer that | 00:28 |
trickx51 | ?? Im running from a liveCD....is there anyway to do it without a full install? | 00:29 |
lyrae | how do i see how much space i have left on my HD? | 00:29 |

R3cur51v3 | Please, I need to know quickly: how do I disable the firewall? | 00:29 |
red2kic | !firewall | R3cur51v3 | 00:29 |
ubottu | R3cur51v3: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 00:29 |
ActionParsnip | trickx51: you can uninstall apps in the live environment but they will be back next boot | 00:30 |
lyrae | ActionParsnip, thanks | 00:30 |
D3RGPS31 | R3cur51v3: sudo service iptables stop | 00:31 |
D3RGPS31 | R3cur51v3: i think :D | 00:31 |
hlp | Hi, is there any way to set Alt-Backspace to word delete in Ubuntu? | 00:31 |

trickx51 | thanks | 00:32 |
shomon | I have some 3gp videos I want to convert to avi | 00:32 |
shomon | and it looks like only the nonfree bit of it works with this codec | 00:32 |
sebsebseb | shomon: its in the repo I think | 00:32 |
sebsebseb | !codecs | 00:33 |
ubottu | For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 00:33 |

p1oooop | yup. windows is SHITAKE with partitions | 00:35 |
p1oooop | hehe | 00:35 |
p1oooop | I love that | 00:35 |
MaRk-I | trickx51: that's a CLI program | 00:35 |
p1oooop | sudo apt-get install aircrack-ng | 00:36 |
ActionParsnip | shomon: you will need to install ffmpeg | 00:36 |
sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: uh yes | 00:36 |
sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: they were wondering how to install ffmpeg | 00:36 |
shomon | I have it | 00:36 |
p1oooop | it is the older version of aircrack-ng though... (I think) | 00:36 |
ActionParsnip | shomon: or you can try handbrake or winff | 00:36 |
p1oooop | sebsebseb: I'm sure it's in the repositories | 00:37 |
shomon | ok | 00:37 |
MaRk-I | ActionParsnip: it wont work unless he has the latest ffmpeg | 00:37 |
trickx51 | MaRK-I: What's a CLI program? | 00:37 |
p1oooop | makes sense... manual compilation? | 00:37 |
shomon | or do you mean compile it with the nonfree flag enabled? | 00:37 |

p1oooop | realubot: you can try adjusting your screen | 00:40 |
realubot | p1oooop: Ok, why is it doing like this? I think my friend (who is actually having the problem) solved the issue by adding a line to the xorg.conf file conatining the new ressolution. | 00:40 |
ActionParsnip | realubot: if wine is giving you jip i'd ask in #winehq | 00:40 |
shomon | ah wow, that did something... I'll see if it's produced anything useful... | 00:42 |
shomon | so it was mencoder rather than ffmpeg that could do it for some reason | 00:42 |

So I won't know if I've locked myself out until I lock myself out. Am I missing something ? [ ufw allow 22 ; then ufw status verbose just reports 'inactive' ] | 00:44 |
ActionParsnip | GArReT: its only hard as you have your windows goggles on, if you use linux as long as you have used windows you'd find it a snap | 00:44 |

vock | I know for a fact my /home partition is 15 GB, and I am the only user on this computer, and when I go to the properties of my home directory in nautilus it's only at 300 MB, but I'm getting 14 GB is used with df -h on the command line. Any ideas what else takes up space on /home? | 01:00 |
p1oooop | vock: trash. | 01:00 |
p1oooop | vock: empty it. | 01:00 |

mattymanx | I see. So TB3 does not want to support my old Yahoo account while my TB2 will just fine. Checap bastards. | 01:01 |
maco | vock: keep in mind that whether you use base-2 or base-10 measures, (that is, GiB v. GB) sizes vary. so 14GiB might be 15GB | 01:01 |
maco | vock: also, note that the filesystem itself reserves 5% of space for root to be able to work to clean things out if the drive fills up | 01:01 |
p1oooop | oh yeah, forgot about that | 01:02 |
drew212 | ActionParsnip: working on it, ill be back when it does/doesnt work | 01:02 |
p1oooop | ... | 01:02 |
p1oooop | LOL | 01:02 |
sjm | vock, you can check on space by (in a terminal window): du -ba | sort -n | 01:02 |
vock | ploooop: I did | 01:02 |
sjm | vock, that should tell you what is taking up the space. | 01:02 |
vock | maco: it's saying that 14 GB is being used though, when going to the home folder in nautilus is only showing 300 MB | 01:02 |
p1oooop | vock: hmm... did you use the disk tool that comes with ubuntu? | 01:03 |
vock | sjm, i'll check that out now, didn't know those commands | 01:03 |
drew212 | ActionParsnip: should i use the B43 which is free, or the STA which is proprietary? | 01:03 |
maco | vock: are you including the dot files? | 01:03 |
p1oooop | it does that with hidden folders | 01:03 |
maco | vock: i know my .kde is 1.8GB | 01:03 |
sjm | vock, do you have nautilus set to show the hidden files? | 01:03 |
ActionParsnip | drew212: no idea, try one, if it works great, if not then use t'otherun | 01:03 |
vock | sjm, wouldn't that still show up in used space? I'll double check | 01:03 |
vock | I just lost another 500 MB some how | 01:04 |
sjm | vock: du will show you all files and folders and the space they use. | 01:04 |
ActionParsnip | vock: how big is the partition? | 01:04 |
sjm | vock, turn on the hidden files option in nautilus to see ALL the files. | 01:04 |
GArReT | OK guys I did the lsUSB like you asked and it showed my Termenal in there... btw, i have to connect via PPPoE... this is what i'm getting from that lsUSB list ::: Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0482:0204 Kyocera Corp. iBurst Terminal | 01:04 |
vock | ActionParsnip, 15 GB | 01:04 |
GArReT | Does that mean it's installed or not? | 01:05 |
vock | sjm, did that it's still showing only 300 MB | 01:05 |
ActionParsnip | vock: so you have a 15Gb partition with 500Mb used? | 01:05 |
sjm | vock, did which? | 01:05 |
vock | ActionParsnip, 15 GB partition, df -h is saying it's 98% used, but in nautilus it's only showing me 500 MB | 01:05 |
ActionParsnip | vock: sounds like the journal to me, is it using a jounalised file system | 01:06 |
vock | sjm, i just did it in nautilus, i'm checking du now | 01:06 |
sjm | vock, you can limit the depth of the tree du searches like this: du -ba --max-depth=1 | sort -n | 01:07 |
ActionParsnip | vock: du -hs /* | sort -nr | head -n 20 should help | 01:07 |
GArReT | uhm... any suggestion or help? | 01:07 |
vock | du shows sizes in bytes? | 01:08 |
ActionParsnip | vock: yes, du -h shows it human readable | 01:08 |
sjm | vock it depends, du -b does | 01:09 |
ActionParsnip | vock: the command I gave should give clues :) | 01:09 |
sjm | vock, -ba says, show in bytes and all files (not just directories). | 01:09 |
vock | sjm, ActionParsnip, ah, thanks guys, I found it | 01:10 |
sjm | vock, sort will order them so the largest is last. | 01:10 |

KungFuBear | Hi folks. I really need some help. I just bought a new ASUS desktop pc and I'm trying to put Ubuntu on it. After having installed it once, then updating to 10.04, I no longer can access a graphical verison, (right now I'm in the F1 terminal). I can't even boot a linux cd. It gets half-way through the boot of the cd and then everything just freezes and I have to hard-reboot my computer. | 01:15 |

KungFuBear | heh | 01:15 |
KungFuBear | p1oooop: Maybe it would be better if you asked me a question and I answer it | 01:16 |
sjm | navetz, depends how you want to do it. If they are both on the same local network, you could just use nfs. | 01:16 |
p1oooop | KungFuBear: that shouldn't happen to your computer... perhaps your boot CD is messed up? | 01:16 |
canthus13 | KungFuBear: Bad burn of the CD, maybe? | 01:16 |
p1oooop | KungFuBear: try sudo gdm start | 01:16 |

KungFuBear | I forget who led me to the link about the blank startup screen in 10.04, but I have some questions about the directions the website gave | 02:00 |
KungFuBear | First off, I was instructed to press F6 at the main menu of the install CD and enter in: i915.modeset=1. I got to the F6 menu, but I have no idea how I declare the i915.modeset=1 part | 02:01 |

Stmeter | Disconnecting: Packet corrupt | 02:01 |
Jordan_U | KungFuBear: Press escape to get out the menu that comes up, and there should be a line containing kernel parameters. Type "i915.modeset=1" and it should appear at the end of that line. | 02:03 |
KungFuBear | Jordan_U: ahah, ok thank you. | 02:04 |
KungFuBear | Jordan_U: does it matter where in teh kernel parameters I put that? | 02:04 |
AAA | alex87 I don't think diff has that option. you can do something like this though :: $ diff -y foo bar | grep '>' | 02:04 |
Jordan_U | KungFuBear: You're welcome. Not that you'll need to change it again on your first boot after installing by holding shift during boot and pressing "e" to edit the menu entry. | 02:04 |
Jordan_U | *note | 02:05 |
alex87 | AAA, thanks, i think i have it working with sed | 02:05 |
KungFuBear | Jordan_U: yeah, I did notice the edit part, but what does holding SHIFT during boot do? | 02:05 |
KungFuBear | Jordan_U: and that was also my next question. I tried navigating to /etc/default/grub but that file doesn't exist | 02:06 |
Jordan_U | KungFuBear: Holding shift at boot brings up the menu, otherwise you'll just boot with the default options. | 02:06 |

LorgonJortle | I burned it to a DVD-R | 02:24 |

[[thufir]] | is this true: "In the default desktop ubuntu install no port is firewalled and you can use any P2P program without changing anything in ubuntu. Just change your router settings." ? http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-911377.html | 02:36 |
un214 | yes | 02:36 |
thune3 | andrew|: security falls into several categories and there is no "one place" to check them. Is there something specific you want to check? | 02:37 |
Dr_Willis | [[thufir]]: tjheres no default firewall/blocking rules yes | 02:38 |
andrew| | thune3: no not specifically but could you list a couple programs I could use? | 02:38 |
iflema | andrew| if your md5sum check your install cd and are not serving anything to the internet and you are careful where you get you software from. Your go to go. But im guessing your a windows user and possibly freaking out...... | 02:38 |

Roasted | After 5 minutes (or so) of being connected wirelessly on my laptop with an Intel Pro 2200 BG Wireless card, I ran dmesg| tail to find this http://pastebin.com/0RUnYsKg output. What does it mean? What can I do? | 02:40 |
iflema | andrew| where you point your browser is the biggest concern ;) | 02:41 |
thune3 | andrew|: make sure "sudo ufw status" shows firewall is enabled. Keep your updates current with update-manager or synaptic package manager. Don't run stuff you know is going to be squirrely. That's really about all there is. | 02:41 |
andrew| | iflema, I getcha | 02:41 |
[[thufir]] | On my router I enabled port forwarding for ports 3000-3001 TCP/UDP to the IP address of the linux box. However, those ports don't show up when nmap runs a scan on the router. How do I know that they're really open? | 02:41 |
un214 | thufir: most consumer routers these days are buggy | 02:42 |
un214 | they can't redirect from inside back where they should | 02:42 |
andrew| | thune3, shows that my firewall is inactive, geussing I should just go grab one from the software center | 02:42 |
jimi_ | Are there any newer packages for gtk-gnutella? mine says i am running an ancient version | 02:42 |
coz_ | jimi_, which version do you have? | 02:43 |
thune3 | andrew|: it's built in firewall, to enable it you should just need to run "sudo ufw enable" to turn it on. | 02:43 |
LorgonJortle | moes: No deal. | 02:44 |
andrew| | thune3, thank you | 02:44 |
[[thufir]] | un214: so, opening that "rule" in the router should "open" the ports for this app, even if nmap doesn't detect them as open? | 02:44 |

coz_ | Roasted, Radeon 7000 (or M6). For 7000 to HD4xxx series cards, you can use the open source "radeon" driver. HD2xxx and later series cards are also supported by the proprietary "fglrx" driver. | 03:04 |
Roasted | coz_, for an older laptop, what would be better? | 03:04 |
coz_ | Roasted, welll I am not really up on ati configs and which driver to use with what but I believe the people in #radeon for be much more helpful than I can | 03:05 |

Daekdroom | Roasted, if it's not avaiable, it's probably not compatible with your videocard. | 03:14 |
fxfitz | rystraum: If I add it to .bashrc, wouldn't I have to log in with SSH before the command is run? | 03:14 |

jimi_ | coz_, Which one do you recommend? | 03:15 |
Sam_Fisher | Howdy Ya'll | 03:15 |

Roasted | well, fml | 03:16 |
lwizardl | Hi | 03:16 |
Daekdroom | Roasted, the opensource driver, on the other hand, should give excellent support for you card. | 03:16 |
Sam_Fisher | How do i get my Logitech Fusion webcam to work when I need it? I have Cheese installed and had it work before. Now it just starts and spins a wheel and shuts down. | 03:16 |
Daekdroom | Roasted, because I have a x200 as well. | 03:16 |
rystraum | fxfitz: Ahh. So that's what you want to do. Hmmm. I can't think of anything else but adding it to /etc/init.rcXd. | 03:16 |
lwizardl | I was wondering in the openoffice writer program if there is a way to include the Header/Footer but only on certain pages? Like maybe Pages 3-10, 12-19, etc | 03:16 |
Roasted | Daekdroom, do you use the open source driver? | 03:17 |
Daekdroom | Roasted, yes | 03:17 |
rystraum | fxfitz: But then again, that would execute the process as root. | 03:17 |
tenochslb | could a getpwuid_r(): failed due to bla bla cause problems loading lubuntu? | 03:17 |
coz_ | jimi_, are you on karmic or lucid? | 03:17 |
Daekdroom | Roasted, it should work out of the box, by the way. | 03:17 |
Roasted | Daekdroom, how can I obtain it? Ive never used an OS driver | 03:17 |
Roasted | Daekdroom, well, it "works" I suppose | 03:17 |
fxfitz | rystraum: And vncserver needs to be started as the user, right? | 03:17 |
Roasted | Daekdroom, how can I tell if its in use? | 03:17 |
jimi_ | coz_, how can i tell? | 03:17 |
fxfitz | fxfitz: Could I write a script that did like 'su fxfitz; vncserver'?? | 03:17 |
IdleOne | tenochslb: probably, ask in #lubuntu | 03:17 |
Daekdroom | Roasted, lsmod | grep radeon should return a few lines if it's in use | 03:17 |
coz_ | jimi_, lsb_release -a in terminal | 03:17 |
fxfitz | rystraum: Could I write a script that did like 'su fxfitz; vncserver'?? | 03:17 |
jimi_ | coz_, i switched about 4-5 months ago from fedora, this new naming convention for distro versions is weird. | 03:18 |
Daekdroom | Roasted, well, we better move the entire thing to #radeon o.o | 03:18 |
MikeXz | Questions - just formatted 2 drives as ext3 in gparted and loaded drive into ubuntu - in the file explorer I cannot create folders - getting access denied - seems like I should not need to be sudo - what gives? | 03:18 |

jimi_ | coz_, karmic | 03:19 |
rystraum | fxfitz: That could work I think. I'm checking up on if vncserver really needs to be run by the user. | 03:19 |
Daekdroom | Roasted, so I don't have to read the same conversation twice. I'm there. | 03:19 |
Sam_Fisher | When i search from Nautilus it looks outside of the folder I am in. How do I make it just look inside the folder I am in? | 03:19 |

fxfitz | aristo: I would like to do it via command line. | 04:14 |
aristo | pl | 04:14 |
aristo | ok | 04:14 |
aristo | you can do it with ifconfig | 04:14 |
aristo | check ifconfig manpages | 04:15 |

abadabad00 | i was wondering if someone could help me get my soundblaster audigy 4 to use 7.1 speakers in ubuntu 10.04 64bit | 04:17 |
MaRk-I | nimbiotics: not really, maybe it's not indexed yet you can also try: sudo updatedb && locate mysql.sock | 04:17 |
fxfitz | aristo: Would it be the broadcast option? | 04:18 |
nimbiotics | MaRk-I> same thing ... should i just hang myself now? :D | 04:19 |
_SKiTZO | nimbiotics: cd / && find | grep -i "mysql.sock" | 04:19 |
aristo | mrklean, u just need to mount /boot and do sudo nano (or any editor of your preference) /mountpoint/boot/grub/menu.lst | 04:19 |
MaRk-I | nimbiotics: bonzai trees are the best.. | 04:19 |
_SKiTZO | nimbiotics: usually its under /var/ somewhere | 04:19 |

fxfitz | iceroot: Okay, so your ifconfig command worked. eth0 was registered to 192.168.1.2 but I wasn't getting any outside internet. | 04:30 |
_SKiTZO | wanwan which cd is it | 04:30 |
aristo | fxfitz, did you set default gateway? | 04:30 |
iflema | Wanwan check ya bios and make sure its set to try cdroms first. Also there is an alternate cd with more options,drivers and what not | 04:30 |
aristo | or you dns? | 04:30 |
iceroot | fxfitz: then check the output of "route" | 04:30 |
Wanwan | I burned a win7 ISO onto a DVD via ubuntu | 04:30 |
fxfitz | aristo: No? | 04:31 |
spasysheep | wanwan: there is a way to boot from a floppy and then pass the system on to a cd, but last time i had to do that was years ago | 04:31 |
aristo | well you need to set default gw with route | 04:31 |
iceroot | Wanwan: enable cd boot in the bios | 04:31 |
Wanwan | iflema: specified CD boot, and it spits me to the OS selection screen, but they're all Ubuntu | 04:31 |
fxfitz | aristo: How so? | 04:31 |

aristo | then, inside that folder, go to boot/grub/menu.lst | 04:36 |
fxfitz | iceroot: Yeah, just found it. ;-) | 04:36 |
iceroot | fxfitz: if i am correct you have to call /etc/init.d/networking restart after | 04:36 |
aristo | then you can use ifup a ifdown fxfitz | 04:36 |
mrklean | aristo, oh I forgot to include that, yeah I am cd'ing into /media/disk-2/boot/grub | 04:36 |

aristo | Wanwan, format disk | 04:42 |
PythonPup | Wanman, just start a new install. Tell it to use the whole drive and everything will be formatted freshly. | 04:42 |
lukehasnoname | I thought it was there anyway... | 04:42 |

Chaorain | I found the alternate install but will that give me a gui? | 04:43 |
aristo | mrklean, well you can create a mount point at fstab with rw permission | 04:43 |
_SKiTZO | wanwan: to COMPLETELY wipe a disk i usually do cat /dev/zero > /dev/sda where sda is my disk | 04:43 |

Already tested. No, DHCP server is not getting a request for an IP) | 04:44 |

ANowlin | iptables as in? (Keep in mind, I'm not a linux guru, but know enough of the ropes to be dangerous) | 04:45 |
aristo | ANowlin, and why telnet, you should use ssh | 04:45 |
ANowlin | telnet because I haven't configured ssh yet. | 04:46 |
PythonPup | Chaorain, I haven't used it, but there is an installer for USB drives in the menu once you are up. | 04:46 |

puff | The CD passed a media check (booted it on a desktop). | 04:47 |
wilmoore | In other words, I have no highlighting or anything in less. | 04:47 |
_SKiTZO | ANowlin: since its allready comprimised you could always flush the firewall completely and see if that helps with iptables -F | 04:47 |

_SKiTZO | puff: where does it sop? | 04:48 |
_SKiTZO | stop | 04:48 |

_SKiTZO | puff: just temporarily disalbe hd from boot selection in the bios | 04:49 |
ANowlin | I just don't know why it would crap out on me randomly. | 04:49 |
Chaorain | sebsebseb: yeah I know, I'm trying to get old hardware to work. It worked on 8.10 | 04:49 |
puff | _SKiTZO: The second time, I held down the "Access IBM" key on my thinkpad, which is the BIOS key. BIOS/startup/boot seems to be in the proper order, the hard drive is seven or eighth, 1) USB drive, 2) floppy drive, 3) CD. | 04:49 |
sebsebseb | Chaorain: 8.04 is still supported | 04:49 |
sebsebseb | Chaorain: untill the end of April next year | 04:50 |
puff | _SKiTZO: Okay, I'll try that. | 04:50 |
Chaorain | sebsebseb: not sure if it will work | 04:50 |
_SKiTZO | puff: im not familiar with the t43 but you could try getting a bootr media menu | 04:50 |
thune3 | niccoli: what does " xinput list" show for your touchpad? | 04:50 |
_SKiTZO | puff: exactly | 04:50 |
_SKiTZO | just do that again | 04:50 |
niccoli | thune3, virtual core pointer | 04:51 |
Chaorain | unless, does anyone know of a list of TV tunners that work ith Mythbuntu | 04:51 |
fxfitz | iceroot: LOL well that didn't work out so well | 04:52 |
ANowlin | Chaorain: I've messed with it a littlebit in a VMWare machine. I believe there is a selection (from quite a long list) that shows what it works with. Might check the Mythbuntu site as well. | 04:53 |
switch10_ | anyone know how to open the keyboard shortcut GUI from the command line? There is a bug in jolicloud, an Ubuntu based netbook distro, and I want to see what is going on. | 04:54 |
Loshki | Chaorain: see also #mythtv-users | 04:54 |
_SKiTZO | ANowlin: the reason it doesnt always work is probably because the cd drive spends more time "settling" than the timeout for the boot manager in the bios wants to wait | 04:55 |
fxfitz | aristo: Sooo it didn't work. | 04:55 |
ANowlin | _SKiTZO: Huh? | 04:55 |
fxfitz | aristo: Did you say I needed to edit the resolv.conf file? | 04:55 |
ANowlin | I switched chanels for a sec | 04:55 |
aristo | fxfitz, yes you need to add nameserver XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX | 04:56 |
aristo | replace XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX with you isp dns address | 04:56 |
_SKiTZO | ANowlin: nm. i was talking about why booting from cd doesnt always work | 04:56 |
fxfitz | aristo: But my ISP's DNS servers are already in there. :( | 04:56 |

fxfitz | (bad setup right now, I know hehe) | 04:59 |
Chaorain | how long is 10.04 supported? | 04:59 |
_SKiTZO | i think since its lts its 3 years | 05:00 |
xangua | Chaorain: 3 years desktop 5 server | 05:00 |

_SKiTZO | puff: what happened? | 05:01 |
puff | _SKiTZO: I just tried completely excuding the HDD from the boot order, it still booted off the HDD. | 05:01 |
_SKiTZO | heh that was odd | 05:01 |
aristo | techzg, i think you can auto enable wireless by right click on it and edit settings | 05:02 |
_SKiTZO | puff: how about using that blue access button again? | 05:02 |
puff | _SKiTZO: I noticed a bit in the BIOS about enabling the F12 key to pop up a boot selection menu, so I tried that. f12, got the list of devices, selected CD, nope, still booted off the HD. | 05:02 |
puff | _SKiTZO: The blue butto bascially just gets me into the BIOS menu. | 05:02 |
aristo | and bluetooth go to Sistem -> preferences -> startup programs (or something like that) | 05:02 |
puff | _SKiTZO: Well, it pops up a menu with "ESC to continue, F1 to get into BIOS, F2 to select startup device". | 05:03 |
techzg | aristo, the wireless networks get discovered when i disable bluetooth | 05:03 |
aristo | i have my desktop on spanish so i don't know how is exactly in english | 05:03 |
fxfitz_ | aristo: Well, I was able to get it working with ifconfig!! | 05:03 |
puff | I'm suspecting I may have to download and burn the alternate install CD. | 05:03 |
_SKiTZO | puff: is the CD itself put into the slot properly? atleast my w700 and x60 tablet hase removable cdroms | 05:03 |
aristo | fxfitz_ congrats | 05:03 |
fxfitz_ | aristo: The problem before was that the default gateway was deleted. :( | 05:03 |

fxfitz_ | aristo: Yeah. But I can't seem to get my interfaces file to work correctly. And /etc/init.d/networking restart doesn't seem to work. :( | 05:04 |
_SKiTZO | puff: i ment the cdrom drives.. not the platters | 05:04 |
fxfitz_ | aristo: So I've been restarting the computer every time I had to test (a pain) | 05:04 |
puff | _SKiTZO: I just opened and closed the CD, and it popped up the "You have just inserted a blank CD". Which is weird, since it actually did boot the once. | 05:04 |
puff | _SKiTZO: The drive should be fine. I burned the CD with this drive. | 05:04 |
puff | Sihg. | 05:04 |
aristo | fxfitx, there is a way to configure it for ifup | 05:05 |
_SKiTZO | puff: sure you did not at one point remove the cd and put in anoter one by mistake? :P | 05:05 |
aristo | so when interface is linked up it will reconfigure | 05:05 |
fxfitz_ | aristo: Hmmm | 05:05 |
_SKiTZO | puff: does it manage to boot of other cds? | 05:05 |
aristo | but can't remember exactly which file you need to edit | 05:06 |
puff | _SKiTZO: Dunno, this is the only one I have. | 05:06 |

kunji | alec_: I use Pidgin as my IRC client and it displays the number of people and all their usernames on the right hand side, so it depends on what client you're using, though I think there is also a way to request it from the server via the IRC protocal, though I'm not sure what that would be. | 05:16 |
_SKiTZO | alec_: depends on your irc client. most list all the people on the right. | 05:16 |

alec_ | thanks i just installed irssi and was curious | 05:17 |

Roky | d9500: You have to install unity yourself. it's not pre-installed by default. They want to see what everyone thinks about it before they push it out, and make a major change like that. Check out some videos of it on youtube bro. It really is pretty great. | 06:00 |

Sam_Fisher | iflema, thanks again | 06:05 |
Roasted_ | Roky, I just wanted to pick at someone whos set it up. I got the task of setting one up and I cant seem to find as much documentation on it as I like. | 06:05 |
Roky | Roasted_: I understand your pain. heh. You do know that your going to need a somewhat prereq of knowing bits of mysql to setup it up yes? | 06:06 |
Roky | set it up* | 06:06 |
Roasted_ | Roky, well, yes - but I'm not entirely doing this alone. the network admin knows more about mysql than me, but hes less experienced in linux than I am, so were both kind of tag teaming it. | 06:07 |
bullgard | aravind__: Yes. Your two messages combined make it a bit clearer what might be the cause. But it is still not enough information to help you out. Because "server not found" may be caused by many things. | 06:07 |
Roasted_ | Roky, we had a microsoft radius server set up, but theres an open bug MS has yet to fix which effects us greatly, so we need to find alternatives - and freeradius sounds to be a good one since uses said the MS bug doesn texist in freeradius | 06:07 |
Roky | Roasted_: Right on, glad to see some teamwork. First off make sure you have mysql-server mysql-client setup. | 06:07 |

Roasted_ | Roky, school district. | 06:09 |
CalicoJack | maco Sam_Fisher, i'm getting two different answers here >.< | 06:09 |
Roky | Roasted_: I see the need for urgency. heh | 06:09 |
Roasted_ | Roky, were hoping to use this 1 server for all 7 schools. | 06:09 |
aravind__ | bullgard: well...i cannot successfully connect to websites,google works fine(it maybe because its ip is cached),and certain others like facebook too work good | 06:09 |
Roasted_ | Roky, well we were using standard WPA2 security | 06:10 |
CalicoJack | maco I think you are right, though. Thank you for your help. | 06:10 |
Roasted_ | Roky, but high school students tend to get slick with the tools they find on the internet - couple that with usb flash drives and bingo bango - they can dig up the key without too much effort. | 06:10 |
aravind__ | bullgard: i just cant connect to other websites,i'm guessing its a dns issue? | 06:10 |
Roasted_ | Roky, so were hoping to take the key out of the equation with hardware authentication (this is where the network admin comes in and I tend to step back) | 06:10 |
BinaryMan | Roasted_: Try WPA + RADIUS? | 06:10 |
Roasted_ | Roky, I'm just involved cause of my huge linux interest :P | 06:10 |
drew212 | how do i make a folder not need root privelages? | 06:11 |
BinaryMan | Roasted_: I'm 21 and in college. I used to be one of those high school students you're thinking of. :) | 06:11 |
drew212 | i know its chown, but i forget how to make it work | 06:11 |
Roky | Roasted_ : well the radius server will support 128bit WEP rekeying every N seconds...sooo doubt your kiddies are that smart. lol | 06:11 |
Roasted_ | BinaryMan, I honestly cant tell you if we had or not. Weve done a lot of different things, but all of the radius options have had the same problem - after 30 days, they dont reauthenticate and need to be plugged in to re-authenticate properly. This is a known bug with MS Radius - which is why we dumped it in hopes of using freeradius (something users say works better anyway) | 06:11 |
bullgard | aravind__: I also believe that this is a DNS issue | 06:11 |
Roasted_ | BinaryMan, I hear ya - Im 24 years old and been @ this place of work for just over 2 years now. I was one of those little punks too :P | 06:11 |
kiamo | How do I see what IP my laptop is using on the wireless? is it eth0? Or should I look somewhere else? | 06:12 |
Roasted_ | BinaryMan, it gives me an advantage, in my opinion. My relatively young age in the field working in a high school is a unique combo since I tend to be quicker to pick up on potential security holes than others since it wasnt long ago I was in those shoes. | 06:12 |
pehden | chanmode "+mnsdt-k" does this mean invite only | 06:12 |
Roasted_ | kiamo, right lcick network manager - connection information, OR in terminal run ifconfig | 06:12 |
Roasted_ | Roky, hahaha yeah, good point. | 06:13 |
BinaryMan | Roasted_: I know exactly what you're talking about. | 06:13 |
Roasted_ | Roky, anyway, I take it youve set up freeradius before? Or are you just familiar with it? | 06:13 |
MaRk-I | kiamo: ifconfig | 06:13 |
BinaryMan | I was playing with Linux before I was a sophomore. | 06:13 |
kiamo | Roasted, ifconfig only displays ethX connections | 06:13 |
Roasted_ | BinaryMan, I almost feel like a jerk though - its like a big brother feeling. Muahaha! Security hole plugged! *sad high schoolers faces* | 06:13 |
Roky | Roasted_: I should let you guys know that open radius is fairly complex. And not knowing how to configure it properly could lead too disastrous results. | 06:13 |
kiamo | isnt that just for ethernet, or does the wifi use that as well? | 06:13 |
BinaryMan | kiamo: No, it doesn't. It'll list all network adapters, even virtual/pseduo ones. | 06:14 |
Roasted_ | Roky, we're setting this up while letting our current security in place, so if it backfires, we can pull the plug and revert to what we've been using. | 06:14 |
Roky | Roasted_: I have played with it a few times. Some friends of mine use it and have configured it multiple times. They call me in to "test" it xD | 06:14 |
Roasted_ | Roky, we're reimaging all laptops this summer, so what'll happen is we'll set up 2 SSID's in the mix with the proper settings. If the freeradius bombs on us, we just disable that SSID and the laptops re-vert accordingly. | 06:14 |
Roky | I know the basics of the configuration. But after that your kind on your own bro. | 06:15 |
Roasted_ | Roky, I'm all about backups and plan B/C/D's :P | 06:15 |
kiamo | BinaryMan, I only see eth0, eth1, and lo. The wifi will be one of those then? | 06:15 |
freezway | i installed lmms by compiling it (i wanted 0.4.6) but it didn't work correctly. how do i remove it. sudo make uninstall doesn't work | 06:15 |
Roasted_ | kiamo, mor ethan likely its eth1 | 06:15 |
Roky | Roasted_: You need to be in a world like this. hehe | 06:15 |
Roasted_ | Roky, so anyway, I know I need kerberos, samba, and mysql - right? | 06:15 |
kiamo | ok, thanks :) | 06:15 |
Roasted_ | along with freeradius of course | 06:15 |
hotfloppy | hello guys.. Wine menu on my application menu has been disappeared.. ive open menu editor but its missing in there too.. how to make it re-appear on application menu ? | 06:15 |
Roky | wpasupplicant as well | 06:15 |
BinaryMan | kiamo: Probably eth1. | 06:15 |
kiamo | thanks guys :) | 06:16 |
Roasted_ | Roky, thats not installed by default? | 06:16 |
BinaryMan | kiamo: iwconfig will tell you which is the wireless adapter. | 06:16 |
MaRk-I | freezway: are you invoking that comand inside the lmms folder? | 06:16 |
MaRk-I | command** | 06:16 |
Roky | Roasted_: It might be, It's been awhile since I have used Ubuntu to be honest. But it's more the program your interested in that Ubuntu. So it's not much differant. | 06:17 |
Roky | I'm on Arch Linux as of the moment. | 06:17 |
Roasted_ | Roky, I have minimal PHPMyAdmin experience from using Wordpress - can I use PHPMyAdmin to add my administrator MySQL user, etc? | 06:17 |
freezway | MaRk-I, yes | 06:17 |
Roasted_ | Roky, yeah, I know - were just using Ubuntu since its my happy place :P | 06:18 |
Roasted_ | Roky, we have 2 other Ubuntu servers in place that have done very well, so it made sense to stay consistent | 06:18 |

freezway | i installed lmms by compiling it (i wanted 0.4.6) but it didn't work correctly. how do i remove it. sudo make uninstall doesn't work | 06:24 |

Ant_c | Hi everyone. I was just wondering if anyone could help with a problem I'm having trying to connect to the internet on ubuntu. Because of where I am I have to use https://prepay.snap.net.nz/ | 06:25 |
Ant_c | They don't have instructions for linux and their support team were unhelpful when I emailed them. | 06:25 |
prince_jammys | freezway: or see if the place you downloaded it from gives any advice | 06:26 |

freezway | ok got it... | 06:26 |
freezway | but now when i type lmms into the terminal i get bash: /usr/local/bin/lmms: No such file or directory | 06:26 |
freezway | brb | 06:26 |
prince_jammys | freezway: open a new terminal, or type ''hash -r'' | 06:27 |
prince_jammys | freezway: the latter will make bash 'forget' its hashed location, and look it up again. | 06:27 |

kruzztee | just select the older kernel on grub2 screen | 08:16 |
Jordan_U | britta: Hold shift during boot and you will get a menu allowing to to select older kernels. | 08:16 |
Achr | kruzztee: No luck. Still not finding the wireless adapter. lspci lists it as BCM43XG... iwconfig shows "no wireless extensions" | 08:17 |
britta | Jordan_U, thanks. Will try that and return. | 08:17 |
Jordan_U | britta: You're welcome. | 08:17 |
kruzztee | Achr: try to browse the openwrt for your specific BCM | 08:17 |
Jordan_U | Achr: It this an internal PCI wireless card or USB? | 08:18 |
Achr | Internal | 08:18 |
Achr | Actual card is Linksys WMP54G | 08:18 |
o2oo | red2kic, do you mean goto the apple channel? | 08:19 |
red2kic | o2oo: Yes. :) | 08:19 |
Jordan_U | Achr: Do you have the directories /lib/firmware/b43/ and /lib/firmware/b43legacy/ ? | 08:19 |
kruzztee | Achr, it was BCM43XG? | 08:19 |
britta | Jordan_U, yess, I'm on wireless now... So how do I roll back the latest kernel - or is there another solution? | 08:20 |
Achr | kruzztee: Yup. | 08:20 |
Achr | Jordan_U: /b43/ and /bnx2/ | 08:21 |

I have tried using WinXP's Direct Cable Connection but haven't had much luck. I'm hoping the Ubuntu/Linux community has another solution (as they usua | 08:21 |
Jordan_U | britta: First file a bug report stating that support stopped working with the kernel update. To file the bug report run "ubuntu-bug linux". | 08:21 |
britta | Jordan_U, a script fixed the non-support of ubuntu 10.04 already, so the fix needs a fix... | 08:22 |
britta | 10.04 no support for this wifi card, curiously enough 9.10 has support :/ | 08:22 |

Achr | britta: Mine worked in 9.10... 10.04 won't find it. :P | 08:23 |
Jordan_U | britta: What script? If you aren't using the built in drivers then you will probably need to recompile them each time there is a kernel upgrade. | 08:23 |
Sickler | i figured bc its based widely off ubuntu its not an issue red2kic | 08:24 |

R3cur51v3 | maelstorm, depends on if the .sh file was written to allow uninstall. .sh files are just generic shell programs that can do anything they want | 08:44 |
Jordan_U | maelstorm: It depends on how the script was written, which is one of the reasons that it's recommended to only install .deb packages. | 08:44 |
R3cur51v3 | maelstorm, use .deb files to install stuff | 08:44 |

red2kic | bullgard: Ask in #ubuntu-offtopic (They're helpful). | 09:34 |

JonathanEllis | red2kic: Why is bullgard's question off-topic? | 09:35 |

red2kic | JonathanEllis: I never never said that. He tried his luck here and it wouldn't hurt to expand his luckiness. | 09:36 |
bullgard | Jordan_U: No. Note: The subject is dpkg. | 09:37 |

Jordan_U | bullgard: A trigger is a way to keep from doing the same task over and over when installing multiple packages, when it only needs to be done once. | 09:38 |
Altreus | My DNS seems to be cached. If I use dig to make the DNS request I get the correct answer back from the correct nameserver, but if I use curl or a browser it says cannot resolve host | 09:39 |
Altreus | Any idea what could be doing this? It's a fairly clean install of 10.04 | 09:39 |
Jordan_U | bullgard: For instance, if you are installing 5 packages that need "update-initramfs" to be run before they will work, those packages can use a trigger so that instead of running update-initramfs directly in their postinst scripts, they register a trigger and update-initramfs is run when all five packages are otherwise completely configured. | 09:40 |
bullgard | Jordan_U: Your answer is wrong. This morning Update manager repeatedly displayed a »post-installation trigger« message. | 09:40 |
Altreus | Also, the site works for others. | 09:40 |

scarra3 | I wan't to install vim in ubuntu so should I do sudo apt-get install vim vim-scripts or just sudo apt-get install vim | 09:50 |
abhi_nav | !who > ThatGuyOverThere | 09:50 |
ubottu | ThatGuyOverThere, please see my private message | 09:50 |
indus | whats ubuntu tweak | 09:50 |
Achr | Bleh... still nothing. Ugh. This is way too aggrivating. | 09:50 |
abhi_nav | indus, which? | 09:50 |
indus | ThatGuyOverThere, just download from gnome-look.org | 09:50 |
abhi_nav | indus, ohhh sorry misread | 09:50 |
rww | indus: http://ubuntu-tweak.com/ | 09:51 |
abhi_nav | indus, http://ubuntu-tweak.com/ | 09:51 |
abhi_nav | :( | 09:51 |
indus | ThatGuyOverThere, gnome art manager will try to download all kinds of crap | 09:51 |
ThatGuyOverThere | indus: I get the impression that you're saying I shouldn't install it. | 09:51 |
ThatGuyOverThere | indus: I don't want anything downloading all kinds of crap. | 09:51 |
indus | ThatGuyOverThere, ya i dont like it | 09:51 |
indus | ThatGuyOverThere, and it crashes a lot | 09:52 |
xro | HI, i have a problem with ubuntu and openvpn... i worked yesterday and today when i connect to the vpn i dont get a tun0 interface... can you help me? error message ---> NOTE: unable to redirect default gateway -- VPN gateway parameter (--route-gateway or --ifconfig) is missing | 09:52 |
ThatGuyOverThere | indus: So, what? Only Ubuntu Tweak and gdm2setup? | 09:52 |
indus | ThatGuyOverThere, i dont recommend no unofficial packages | 09:52 |
abhi_nav | I use art manger lucid 64bit. it runs well. and it only download anything only when i tell him to do so. otherwise it is sleeping. :p | 09:52 |
wzhk | HI | 09:52 |
bullgard | pehden: It depends on the layout of your network and on the configuration of your Ubuntu. Check for example in /etc/resolv.conf the entry nameserver 192.168.178.1. | 09:53 |
indus | ThatGuyOverThere, you should try all of them though, see if it is useful for you | 09:53 |
ThatGuyOverThere | Okay. | 09:53 |

ThatGuyOverThere | I have another question. When using Ubuntu Lucid, I sometimes get weird horizontal lines flashing across my screen. What the hell? | 09:53 |
whitefire | how to install driver Canon-LASER-SHOT-LBP-1210 in ubuntu 10/04 | 09:54 |

erUSUL | ThatGuyOverThere: bug in the graphic driver | 09:54 |
erUSUL | ? | 09:54 |
indus | ThatGuyOverThere, what graphics card is it | 09:54 |
ThatGuyOverThere | It's an integrated card. Intel model. | 09:54 |
ThatGuyOverThere | erUSUL: Is there a fix? | 09:54 |
alteregoa | druiden | 09:54 |
alteregoa | ihr seid alles druiden! | 09:55 |
ThatGuyOverThere | erUSUL: It's not a huge deal, but it is a little annoying. | 09:55 |
JonathanEllis | ThatGuyOverThere: I had problems on both my ancient Dell machines running any version of Ubuntu later than Hardy. It's because my hardware is too old | 09:55 |
erUSUL | ThatGuyOverThere: you can try with newer drivers, i.e. adding the xorg-updates ppa | 09:55 |
xev | what is ubuntu one? | 09:55 |
erUSUL | !ubuntuone | 09:55 |
ubottu | Ubuntu One is a service where you can back up, store, sync and share your data with other Ubuntu One users - For more see https://one.ubuntu.com/ support and help available at #ubuntuone | 09:55 |
bullgard | Jordan_U: I did not expand the "details" field. The messages appeared in the normal (main) window area. | 09:55 |
JonathanEllis | ThatGuyOverThere: I also have an integrated intel graphics adapter. However, I also had problems with my matrox card so I am just sticking with Hardy | 09:55 |
Zelozelos | whats the command to see what my core temp is? | 09:56 |
ThatGuyOverThere | JonathanEllis: That's rough, man. Lucid actually fixed a lot of my hardware problems I had had with Karmic. No way am I going back. :) | 09:56 |
erUSUL | !sensors | Zelozelos | 09:56 |
ubottu | Zelozelos: To access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions. | 09:56 |
JonathanEllis | ThatGuyOverThere: Yes it's a pain. I'm now trying to get a USB wifi adapter working and I find I dont have a new enough kernel so now going through all sorts of hassles trying to upgrade my kernel | 09:57 |
Jordan_U | bullgard: I don't normally use update-manager so I don't know exactly what messages it shows and when, but many packages will be registering post-install hooks, and at the end of most large upgrades all of those triggers will be processed. | 09:57 |
indus | ubunu tweak looks like automatix born again | 09:58 |
b3wbs | My install doesn't log in correctly- i have changed the settings in the "Login Screen" settings thingo so that it goes straight to an xterm, but it is automatically logging into Gnome every time I boot up | 09:58 |
JonathanEllis | ThatGuyOverThere: Im thinking perhaps it will take less time to just drill a hole in the wall and run a cable from the router to my computer but I dont really want to spoil the walls# | 09:58 |
indus | JonathanEllis, upgrading kernel is super easy , | 09:58 |
bazhang | indus, from what source | 09:59 |
indus | JonathanEllis, you can either try the plain vanilla kernel which might not work as intended , or use the ppa | 09:59 |
JonathanEllis | indus: How? | 09:59 |
red2kic | JonathanEllis: I drilled a hole in my wall (from living room to my bedroom). 25ft cable was only 4 bucks on eBay. | 09:59 |
bazhang | indus, did you mean kernel.org ? that is not supported here | 09:59 |
indus | bazhang, dont worry, i will put appropriate warnings | 09:59 |
JonathanEllis | red2kic: Yes cable is cheap and I can wire it easily. Thats not the problem. Its a rented flat and I dont want to spoil the walls | 10:00 |
indus | bazhang, there is a ppa also though for ubuntu | 10:00 |
bazhang | indus, not supported as in don't suggest it here | 10:00 |
WXZ | what does the win + n key do? | 10:00 |
bullgard | Jordan_U: What does it mean "to _register_ a post-install hook"? | 10:00 |
indus | bazhang,if his hardware works , whats the problem, ? | 10:00 |
kaushal | is there a way to run the log4j appender at a specified time and not as usual midnight ? | 10:00 |

Zelozelos | ty erUSUL , now, can i change from Celsius to Fahrenheit? | 10:00 |
xev | So, I want to remove some application. | 10:00 |
xev | To gain freespace. | 10:01 |
EpicCyndaquil | where does wget save files by default? | 10:01 |
JonathanEllis | bazhang: Whats the problem with kernel.org? I am using kernelcheck to try to install a newer kernel but having problems. It installs kernels from kernel.org | 10:01 |
erUSUL | Zelozelos: i do not know the formula offhand :) google --> F = C * (9/5 ) + 32 | 10:02 |
bullgard | EpicCyndaquil: In your current directory. | 10:02 |
EpicCyndaquil | okay, thanks | 10:02 |
erUSUL | Zelozelos: sensors -f prints in fahrenheit | 10:02 |
Zelozelos | erUSUL, ahh awsome ty again | 10:03 |
JonathanEllis | indus: What is this ppa you mention? | 10:03 |
Zelozelos | heh i should have red the manual ;) | 10:03 |
* erUSUL this americans and its imperial units ... meh XD | 10:03 |
indus | !PPA | 10:03 |
ubottu | A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and should be used at your own risk. | 10:03 |
indus | see above JonathanEllis | 10:04 |
Jordan_U | bullgard: When plymouth gets upgraded it will probably need update-initramfs to be run, so it will register a post-install trigger for update-initramfs. If you also get a kernel update, that kernel package will also register a post-install trigger for update-initramfs (because it doesn't know that one has already been registered by plymouth). After both packages are otherwise finished installing, that update-initramfs trigger | 10:04 |
Jordan_U | bullgard: So registering a trigger is asking that some action (in this case update-initramfs) be performed, and processing the trigger is actually performing that action. | 10:05 |
red2kic | JonathanEllis: Maybe you can ask the man in charge. I don't know. Use cable grommets to make things look nice. :o | 10:06 |
din_ | du | 10:07 |
indus | JonathanEllis, the mainline kernels do not have many ubuntu patches and will break stuff | 10:08 |
bullgard | Jordan_U: Ah! Excellent! Thank you very much for your explanation and help. | 10:08 |
youngmusic | weird problem: after upgrading to 10.04, my network interface is known as wlan1 instead of eth0. I wouldn't mind as such, but when starting the network now, i get a DHCPOFFER from the server that doesnt really work out. | 10:09 |
JonathanEllis | indus: I know what a PPA is. Which particular PPA do you suggest? I need to upgrade my kernel to at least 2.6.27 to get a usb wifi adapter to work | 10:09 |
youngmusic | and hello :-) | 10:09 |
xev | how do i check size of installed application? | 10:09 |
Jordan_U | bullgard: You're welcome. | 10:10 |
Jordan_U | JonathanEllis: What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 10:10 |
red2kic | xev: "aptitude show firefox | grep size" | 10:10 |
JonathanEllis | Jordan_U: Hardy Heron | 10:11 |
indus | JonathanEllis, hmm which ubuntu aer you using | 10:11 |
JonathanEllis | indus: HArdy HEron | 10:11 |
Jordan_U | JonathanEllis: Have you considered upgrading to lucid? | 10:11 |
JonathanEllis | Jordan_U: I cant run any version higher than Hardy. My graphics adapter stopped working when I tried | 10:12 |
xev | red2kic, now i'm at ubuntu software center. I wantto remove some application to gain free space.. but I dont know which one and I dont see any size state there.. | 10:12 |
eoke | xev: You may need a capital S on "Size" | 10:12 |
Jordan_U | JonathanEllis: What GPU exactly? | 10:12 |
JonathanEllis | Jordan_U: GPU? | 10:12 |
Jordan_U | JonathanEllis: Graphics Processing Unit (graphics adapter) | 10:13 |
eoke | xev: This may be of interest to you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=599424 | 10:14 |
JonathanEllis | Jordan_U: Its an old matrox twin head card. MGA G200 | 10:14 |
Jordan_U | JonathanEllis: Ouch, matrox is notoriously poorly supported. | 10:14 |
youngmusic | Could there be any particular reason for a dhcp client not to accept a dhcpoffer? I do get an address offered from the server, but after that there are DHCPREQUEST messages on the client, followed by new DHCPDISCOVER messages and ending with 'No DHCPOFFERS received'. | 10:14 |
xev | eoke, thanks :D | 10:15 |
[Neurotic] | Quick question guys - is there a command to work out the name of the current X display that is running? Or even just list the names of the X displays that are available? I'm trying to send firefox to a particular display through 'firefox --display=0', and I can't work out where to send it. | 10:15 |
JonathanEllis | Jordan_U: Yes. It took ages to get that working (http://forum.tuxx-home.at/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=797&sid=a2008ef8840e4d109e28735551b169dd). Trouble is I was a bit limited for cards as I only have PCI slots, not AGP or PCI Express. Its an old computer | 10:15 |
eoke | xev: I'm still not sure it'll give you what you want as each package has dependencies which might not be used by anything else so removing the parent package means you remove the dependencies. | 10:16 |
JonathanEllis | Jordan_U: And I remember reading there was no driver for anything later than Hardy | 10:16 |
erUSUL | [Neurotic]: well unless specifically statd it is a sequence :0 :1 :2 etc ... | 10:16 |
zatlite | hi, how do I set preferred application for opening file types? | 10:16 |
MasterZuFu | Hey guys, I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 64Bit server edition on a dedicated host. I'm logged in via putty. I know that "dpkg --get-selections" shows a list of installed software, but it's too long and I can't read it all. How do I list it so I can scroll through everything? | 10:16 |
slow-motion | hi | 10:16 |
Jordan_U | JonathanEllis: VESA should always get you something, but I assume that when you say it's a dual head card you actually want to be able to use dual displays. | 10:16 |
JonathanEllis | Jordan_U: Yes | 10:17 |
xev | eoke, sorry, I dont understand that url. | 10:17 |
eoke | MasterZuFu: "dpkg --get-selections | less" | 10:17 |
xev | btw, how do I see my free space? | 10:17 |
erUSUL | xev: df -h | 10:18 |
abhi_nav | zatlite, right click on file=>properties=>open with set your preference there | 10:18 |
MasterZuFu | thank you eoke | 10:18 |
[Neurotic] | erUSUL, 'firefox --dispay=:0' doesn't work (or 1, or 2...), any ideas? | 10:18 |
Jordan_U | JonathanEllis: The problem is that upgrading your kernel will probably break your Matrox setup. | 10:18 |
xev | erUSUL, the program 'dh' is currently not installed. | 10:18 |
erUSUL | xev: df -h | 10:19 |
JonathanEllis | Jordan_U: Its starting to look like running a cable through the wall is going to be my quickest way to get working. Its a desktop machine anyway so it makes more sense for it to be a wired connection and there is much less to go wrong. | 10:19 |
xev | erUSUL, thanks :) | 10:19 |
JonathanEllis | Jordan_U: I was alternatively thinking about using ndiswrapper and a windows driver but that looks complicated | 10:19 |
eoke | xev: "dpkg-query -W --showformat='${Installed-Size;10}\t${Package}\n' | sort -k1,1n" however remember that a small package may depend on a very large one so it's not really going to tell you what you need to know. It'll just tell you the size of the package itself rather than the package and all of the dependencies it requires. | 10:19 |
erUSUL | [Neurotic]: try :0.0 | 10:19 |
xev | space avail 315mb | 10:20 |
xev | gosh | 10:20 |

erUSUL | [Neurotic]: all of this is for a local machine | 10:21 |
nikolam | What do you think one should install to use GoogleEarth right on Lucid/LTS | 10:21 |
zagdag | After installing Ubuntu Server 10.04 x64 the system seems to randomly boot with a blinking cursor and no login-prompt. During one time it did boot, I managed to remove 'quiet' from /boot/grub/grub.cfg, after reboot I got this: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/hR2467fB . After pressing the front resetbutton, as it was unresponsive to CTRL+ALT+DEL, I then got this: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/zbQFEntp . I think it is a hardware problem, because it is ra | 10:21 |
nikolam | bazhang, I am putting ****`s, right | 10:21 |
Jordan_U | JonathanEllis: What are you going to do in a year when 8.04 is no longer supported on the desktop? Do you think you'll have different hardware by then? | 10:21 |
[Neurotic] | erUSUL, trying to get Selenium Web Tests to run | 10:21 |
erUSUL | [Neurotic]: if you are trying to launch it throuh a network you need to specify the hostname too | 10:21 |
indus | Jordan_U, 8.04 is supported | 10:21 |
bazhang | nikolam, still not acceptable. | 10:21 |
indus | Jordan_U, till 2011 i believe | 10:21 |
indus | Jordan_U, 3 years for a LTS release | 10:21 |
[Neurotic] | erUSUL, trying with a local machine, but can't manage to get that | 10:22 |
nikolam | bazhang, well, anwer the question about google earth please | 10:22 |

Altreus | I had to change my /etc/nsswitch.conf to say hosts: files dns | 10:22 |
JonathanEllis | nikolam: Good luck trying to get Google Earth working. I tried and gave up. It was particularly irritating as I paid for the high res version of Google Earth. I emailed google earth support and got no response even when I asked for my money back. Annoying | 10:22 |
Altreus | kbye | 10:22 |
nikolam | bazhang, why you are atacking me personally? I just wanted to know what people think abou Google eart. Can you handle that | 10:23 |
JonathanEllis | Jordan_U: I guess I will have to burn that bridge when I get to it. Can't afford to buy a new PC and laptop just now | 10:23 |
JonathanEllis | Jordan_U: And the choice of hardware is bewildering | 10:23 |
indus | JonathanEllis, so rightg now you have a wireless which doesnt work ? | 10:23 |
JonathanEllis | indus: Thats right | 10:23 |
Jordan_U | JonathanEllis: What happens when you boot from a 10.04 liveCD? | 10:23 |
nikolam | JonathanEllis, I tried with several versions of google eart. Previously (on 8.04 LTS and 9.10) worked quite right. | 10:23 |
Heikki123 | hi. i have a problem with wine + ubuntu screensaver. spotify will stop playing music when screensaver starts. i jhave ubuntu 10.04 and all updates | 10:24 |
indus | nikolam, you can file a bug with google for google earth , did you know | 10:24 |
nikolam | JonathanEllis, I am thinking now of using older release of google earth and wondering where to get it | 10:24 |
indus | nikolam, i have tried earth for many ubuntu versions and it jsut hangs | 10:24 |
JonathanEllis | Jordan_U: Not tried it. As I say, there is no graphics driver later than Hardy. I remember trying the Karmic LiveCD and the screen didnt work | 10:25 |
nikolam | indus, yeah, you are right | 10:25 |
nikolam | indus, worked for me till 9.10 | 10:25 |
indus | JonathanEllis, driver for what ? graphics? | 10:25 |
JonathanEllis | nikolam: NO idea where to get it. I just use googlemaps.com and do screen captures | 10:25 |
JonathanEllis | indus: Yes no graphics driver for Matrox G200 beyond Hardy | 10:25 |
JonathanEllis | indus: And it took so long to get that working I am reluctant to start again | 10:26 |
nikolam | JonathanEllis, oh NO. I was just planning to put new LTS to an Older computer with matrox G400 maybe 400 is ok | 10:26 |
eoke | xev: If you haven't already it may be worth seeing what large files or folder you have in your home directory "du /home | sort -nr | less" the bigger the number the bigger the file/folder. Only delete files folders if you know what they are. | 10:26 |

xev | saba / perl ? | 10:28 |
nikolam | JonathanEllis, I have issue with free driver for radeon on new Lts, to. AMD refused to make supported driver for integrated graphics, beyond 8.10 and now I have 12 FPS instead of 50-70 FPS with Hardy/losed drivers etc | 10:28 |
xev | samba* | 10:28 |
lfitz | basically, the paths defined in /etc/exports dont support NFS but the are ext2 | 10:29 |
lfitz | again, http://lfitz.bravehost.com/nfs-error.html :) | 10:29 |
nikolam | JonathanEllis, oh. so after Hardy, one can use.. console and X forwarding... | 10:29 |
JonathanEllis | indus: Matrox basically gave up supporting linux for these old cards. They have released a newer driver for P series cards I understand. I am using the unoffical driver from tuxx-home | 10:29 |
AdvoWork | Hi there, im using epiphany for something(email). when i click print, it opens the new window showing the contents to print, it only does this first time, second time i try and print, it doesnt. all other pcs are ok with this, its just the one. Any ideas please? | 10:29 |
indus | JonathanEllis, is there no open source driver for this card? also. isnt the matrox g 200 like 15 years old ? | 10:29 |
JonathanEllis | nikolam: Matrox basically gave up supporting linux for these old cards. They have released a newer driver for P series cards I understand. I am using the unoffical driver from tuxx-home | 10:30 |
nikolam | indus, i think it IS open source, i have 400 i think | 10:30 |
waseem | Hi everyone, I am facing issues connecting to internet on Ubuntu 10.04. I have tried everything, but nothing is working. Is there anyone who can help me in pm ?? | 10:30 |
bazhang | waseem, best to ask here | 10:30 |
Jordan_U | !pm | waseem | 10:31 |
ubottu | waseem: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 10:31 |
indus | nikolam, so do these cards work out of the box on ubuntu ? | 10:31 |
JonathanEllis | indus: No idea how old the card is. Yes the tuxx driver is open source. I'm limited to what cards I can use as I only have PCI slots, no AGP and no PCI express | 10:31 |
waseem | see i feel asking one expert rather than following 10 opinions | 10:31 |
nikolam | indus, worked on g400 on Hardy. Did not tried after that on that machine. Will do it in a day or two | 10:31 |

indus | JonathanEllis, then i recommend Jordan_U's idea of trying the 10.04 live cd and see how it works | 10:32 |
indus | JonathanEllis, do u have enought ram | 10:32 |
Tricks | I have just installed a caching DNS server which works locally but no clients can reach it | 10:32 |
nikolam | indus, I think it have something to do with changing kog graphics cards work with newest kernels. That brake some things. | 10:32 |

waseem | ok ubottu | 10:33 |
indus | heh hehe | 10:34 |
indus | so polite people are | 10:34 |
JonathanEllis | indus: I dont think the graphics will work since there is no driver beyond Hardy for the G series cards. I have 1GB of RAM. Who knows if that's "enough" but its the maximum my motherboard will take | 10:34 |
ThatGuyOverThere | I think I didn't word my question very well earlier... I want to downgrade gdm from 2.28 to 2.20 so I can use all the old GDM themes. Does anyone know how to do this? | 10:34 |
nikolam | aha ok, JonathanEllis at me, G400 did work with 8.04 | 10:34 |
MaRk-I | reeniginEesreveR: you can execute the script and add an ampersand or script nohup | 10:34 |
indus | JonathanEllis, how do you know for sure there is no driver , if it is open source, then it should exist | 10:34 |

JonathanEllis | indus: I suppose I dont know for sure but I remember problems even getting my onboard graphics to work with Karmic let alone the Matrox. When I read http://forum.tuxx-home.at/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=748 I just gave up trying. I think drilling a hole in the wall and running a cable may take less time than trying to upgrade. | 10:36 |
indus | JonathanEllis, so just try with live cd then, its surely worth it | 10:36 |
indus | JonathanEllis, if it works etc, then good | 10:37 |
JonathanEllis | indus: Fair enough | 10:37 |
red2kic | ThatGuyOverThere: Is it worth breaking something? :) | 10:37 |
nikolam | indus, but it needs to be maintained to work with newer kernel etc. Partially rewritten, etc. Linux kernel does not provide binary backward compatibility for drivers. and newer kernels just, say, changed that way they connect do graphics driver part. So we can Better behaving in the future. I support noone should care too much for so old hardware. I care and therefore I think only solution is to use older Stable kernel distros for tha | 10:37 |

indus | waseem, copy output of lspci to that address in the box provided, then click on send and give the url here | 10:40 |
red2kic | kazagistar: You have it set for login automatically. That itself is a security flaw. When you don't use encryption, the Wifi password and among other things will be stored visibly on ~/gnome* | 10:41 |

kazagistar | red2kic: I like being able to log out when I tell it to, and the whole "Guest User" system for letting friends use it securely.. but when I turn it on, it instantly prompts me for a password, and the entire hard drive is locked until I enter it, so I dont see the problem with afterwards allowing 1 free login | 10:42 |

red2kic | kazagistar: That's fine. Whatever floats your boat. Look for Encryption + Keys. Delete the keyring so you can generate a new one and leave the password blank (unsecured). Then you won't be pestered for extra password. | 10:45 |

abhi_nav | jerry, didng got you | 10:46 |
iflema | jerry you can easily drop the recovery option by editing /etc/default/grub (#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_RECOVERY="true") followed by, in a terminal sudo update-grub | 10:46 |

om26er | oops | 11:20 |
andai | jrib: lol, get the same thing | 11:20 |
MaMoUs | but all other ubuntu in my network is ok | 11:20 |
erUSUL | MaMoUs: well without knowing exactly what happened is hard to give advice ... | 11:20 |
moldy | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sun-java6/+bug/226911 i think this is indeed the bug that is hitting me | 11:20 |
jrib | andai: what are you running exactly? | 11:21 |
moldy | and there seems to be no fix for hardy :( | 11:21 |
gpathy | hi... i am using ubuntu-9.10, i need to installed both libxul-dev and xulrunner-dev. But installing one removes the the other. Is there any solution for this? Thanks... | 11:21 |
indus | reuben, always use pastebin.org to paste stuff | 11:21 |
indus | !PASTE > reuben | 11:21 |
ubottu | reuben, please see my private message | 11:21 |
jrib | gpathy: why do you need both? | 11:21 |
andai | jrib: Oh hey it works now ( a second ago i had BOTH repos active lol ) | 11:21 |
andai | jrib thanks :) | 11:21 |
rob_p | Tricks: I've got to run for a bit. I'm actually at work. I'll check back later. I think you have what you need to get it going though. Good luck! | 11:21 |
indus | dkam, is it upgrading ? | 11:21 |
andai | Oh, while i'm here: The issue that's leading me to actually install vbox and use windows instead: No sound in skype | 11:22 |
dkam | indus: looks like it is | 11:22 |
om26er | reuben, my best guess you might be facing this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/538648 | 11:22 |
jrib | andai: did you follow the wiki to install skype? sound "just worked" for me | 11:22 |
andai | wiki? i used synaptic | 11:22 |
gpathy | jrib i need libxul-dev for compiling app which uses gtkmozembed and xulrunner-dev for firefox and all | 11:22 |
jrib | !skype | andai | 11:22 |
ubottu | andai: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 11:22 |
om26er | reuben, the bug description have different workarounds | 11:23 |
MaMoUs | erUSUL: is there any way to get the defult to normal files | 11:23 |
=== Guest6165 is now known as joerg |
om26er | reuben, try workaround2 there. | 11:23 |
=== joerg is now known as Guest42929 |
erUSUL | MaMoUs: if we know the files we can do « dpkg -S /path/to/file » to find out what package the file is. then purge and install the package to get a fresh copy. but you said you do not know the files ... | 11:24 |
Sego | How do you bring up an 'Internet Explorer' from the command line??? | 11:24 |
om26er | Sego, type firefox and press enter | 11:24 |
jrib | gpathy: apparently they share some files. I guess pick one and install it somewhere like /opt manually | 11:24 |
MaMoUs | erUSUL: Well i don't know | 11:25 |
abuayyoub | Hello everyone. I have a question. I keep getting some GPG errors ( here http://pastebin.com/V3KpEwbc ) when I do an update or upgrade, I just wondering how I can fix or remove these errors. | 11:25 |
jrib | Sego: x-www-browser ? | 11:25 |
Sego | om26er...that was just too easy...thank you. | 11:25 |
erUSUL | MaMoUs: that'as why i said that is hard to give advice ( other then complete reinstall ) | 11:26 |
shruggar | Where can I find information regarding installing nautilus extensions which is more thorough than "Nautilus extensions are typically installed by your system administrator." ? | 11:26 |
MaMoUs | erUSUL: complelet install of ubuntu ? | 11:26 |
erUSUL | yes | 11:26 |
dkam | indus: weird - when I run do-upgrade again it says it's going to upgrade me to Jaunty | 11:27 |
MaMoUs | damn | 11:27 |
dkam | indus: the /etc/issue still says 8.04 - that should have been upgraded yeah? | 11:27 |
jrib | shruggar: http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/ | 11:27 |
moldy | ok, i am currently trying to manually install (dpkg -i) the newer java packages that have the bugfix | 11:27 |
moldy | but there seems to be a circular dependency between sun-java6-bin and sun-java7-jre. how do i work around this? | 11:28 |
dkam | indus: ahhh - it upgraded me to 8.10! | 11:28 |
dkam | indus: and now to jaunty | 11:28 |
alex87 | anyone know a command that lists how many files are in a folder? | 11:28 |
shruggar | jrib: that appears to be a collection of scripts, not extensions | 11:29 |
indus | dkam, lol what ? from which version are you upgrading? | 11:29 |
indus | dkam, ya thats true, it upgrades step by step | 11:29 |
dkam | indus: 8.04 | 11:29 |
indus | dkam, ah wait, let me check if it upgrades directly to 10.04 | 11:29 |
abuayyoub | Hello everyone. I have a question. I keep getting some GPG errors ( here http://pastebin.com/V3KpEwbc ) when I do an update or upgrade, I just wondering how I can fix or remove these errors. | 11:29 |

ineedhelp | How can I copy two partitions to DVD for recovery purposes? I just got a new laptop and it has two recovery partitions which are getting in the way of what I need/want. | 11:30 |
indus | dkam, ok can you roll back? | 11:30 |
jrib | shruggar: ah, what do you mean by nautilus extensions? They're usually in packages, no? | 11:30 |
indus | dkam, i think update manager core was the problem | 11:30 |
dkam | indus: yeah - I think you're right. | 11:30 |
dkam | indus: I'll just let it go. | 11:30 |
shruggar | jrib, I mean some_extension_I_just_compiled_from_source.so | 11:30 |

Joshmuffin | Hey guys ive been following: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1773710 and a couple of other guides in trying to setup my ati card for dual monitors, nothing is going wrong but for some reason, with two seperate (both very bad) monitors I get a PC no sync error on the screen. any suggestions? | 11:30 |
dkam | indus: it's a VMWare host for dev / test so no stress. | 11:30 |
RudyValencia | Sego: chromium-browser | 11:31 |
indus | dkam, now i guess you have to go from 8.10 to 9.04 | 11:31 |
indus | dkam, becausae we changed that line to 'normal' | 11:31 |
dkam | indus: I think so | 11:31 |
indus | dkam, ah shucks this is my mistake | 11:31 |
RudyValencia | (if you don't have it, install the 'chromium-browser' package) | 11:31 |
dkam | indus: yep - that sounds right. | 11:31 |
ineedhelp | Also oddly the wifi card works but will only show the neighbors AP, not mine. The neighbors are using WPA2 and I'm using WPA (I have to for compatbility with other gadgets :-\) | 11:31 |

Sego | om26er: thanks...it is telling me to install it...so I gather I can't use the version I have downloaded...thanks again...will go try. | 11:32 |

magicianlord | Can someone provide a name of a good console-only ipod manager for ipod shuffle. | 11:33 |
matteo1990 | In my last ubuntu update my pc turned of during the installation of new geeforce drivers. Now if i turn on the pc i get in low graphic mode and if i log in i can see only a blanck screen. This happens also if i press ctrl F1 to go to the terminal. What can i do to recover the system? | 11:34 |
magicianlord | matteo1990: go into terminal, and nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, then add 'blacklist nouveau | 11:35 |
indus | dkam, always remember, update manager core :) | 11:35 |
jrib | shruggar: https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/MSysGit:GitCheetah gives install instructions. It's likely a matter of just copying the result to ~/.nautilus/extensions or similar | 11:35 |
magicianlord | blacklist nouveau | 11:35 |
abhi_nav | Sego, :D | 11:35 |
matteo1990 | magicianlord, how to get in terminal? If i press ctrl F1 i get blank screen | 11:39 |
abhi_nav | matteo1990, press alt f2 and type gnome-terminal | 11:40 |
abhi_nav | matteo1990, to go to terminal that is | 11:40 |
shruggar | jrib: I don't want to install it, I want to get documentation on how to install extensions. git-cheetah's "make install" puts it under /usr/lib, and I'm looking for documentation because I would prefer something such as ~/.nautilus/extensions | 11:41 |
magicianlord | whats a good terminal only ipod manager? | 11:41 |
magicianlord | i need this. | 11:41 |
magicianlord | what backend does gtkpod run on | 11:41 |
abhi_nav | !ipod | magicianlord | 11:42 |
ubottu | magicianlord: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod | 11:42 |
magicianlord | that | 11:42 |
magicianlord | that's too much to read this morning | 11:42 |
jrib | shruggar: try the same directory but under ~/.nautilus... like ~/.nautilus/extensions-2.0 apparently. Documentation is sparse, see http://www.hvoigt.net/dev/nautilus-extensions-tutor.html | 11:42 |
magicianlord | just need a name | 11:42 |
matteo1990 | abhi_nav, I can see only the log in screen | 11:43 |
jrib | shruggar: my guess is "make install-user" from the wiki link earlier does what you want | 11:43 |
matteo1990 | abhi_nav, if i log in i get blank screen, same if i press ctrl alt f1 | 11:43 |
abhi_nav | matteo1990, Application=>Terminal | 11:43 |
abhi_nav | matteo1990, ctrl alt f1 is different | 11:43 |
matteo1990 | abhi_nav, I can't see anything | 11:43 |
matteo1990 | I am in the xterm login screen, how to open a terminal? | 11:44 |
rob_p | Tricks: How did it go? | 11:45 |
shruggar | jrib: the "make install-user" command is for a different platform, and doesn't exist for nautilus. I had already tried ~/.nautilus/extensions-2.0, but it didn't have any effect. I'm not going to sit around guessing directories it might be checking. I already looked at the "extensions tutor" link before, but it is not by any means what it says on the tin :) | 11:45 |
abhi_nav_ | hey I was lost connection. now I am reconnected. | 11:46 |
abhi_nav_ | matteo1990, or press ctrl alt T | 11:46 |
abhi_nav_ | matteo1990, Application=>Accessoried=>Terminal | 11:46 |
jrib | shruggar: read nautilus source I guess | 11:46 |
Tricks | rob_p, yeah I'm getting another error now but the DNS server is listening now nmap show listen on 53 for domain | 11:46 |
Tricks | from a windows client I get unknow can't find google.co.uk: query refused | 11:46 |
jrib | shruggar: http://live.gnome.org/Nautilus/Development/Extensions from that tut link only specifies the system-wide path (but includes the path in ~ for python extensions) | 11:47 |
Tricks | rob_p, thanks for the help though mate it's really appreciated | 11:47 |
rob_p | Tricks: You're sure the Windows client is using your server for name resolution? | 11:47 |
Tricks | yup | 11:48 |
Tricks | ipconfig /all | 11:48 |

rob_p | Tricks: Do you have ACLs established? You didn't just copy my named.conf.options file did you? If you did, you will need to configure ACLs for, "allow-recursion" and, "allow-query" within named.conf. | 11:51 |

Tricks | rob_p, erm I copied the listen-on part. Shouldn't those two default to all hosts anyway unless otherwise specified? | 11:55 |
rob_p | Tricks: Yeah. Just making sure you didn't just copy/paste what I have. I use ACLs because my nameserver is on a public-facing network and I don't want to provide name resolution to the world! :-) | 11:57 |
Tricks | :) | 11:57 |
Tricks | hmm | 11:57 |
rob_p | Tricks: I also have it firewalled appropriately so it's realy a non-issue but I still have the ACLs defined. | 11:57 |
jendral | hi | 11:58 |
Tricks | rob_p I have a class C (is it?) subnet 192.168.2.x so would the listen-on be 192.168.2.0/24? | 11:58 |
indus | matteo1990, heya | 11:58 |
indus | matteo1990, where are you stuck | 11:58 |
rob_p | Tricks: Yes. | 11:58 |
Tricks | rob_p ok so it's not that then | 11:59 |
Tricks | rob_p ah think I've found it mate one sec | 11:59 |
rob_p | Tricks: Ok, let me know what you find. | 11:59 |
Tricks | rob_p sorted mate | 12:01 |
rob_p | Tricks: Yeah? What was it? | 12:01 |
Tricks | allow-query{} allow-query-cache {} both set to localhost lol | 12:02 |
bugs_bugger | somebody got an idea? | 12:02 |
Tricks | rob_p it's working! that was so much easier to setup than samba I didn't think it's be that easy | 12:02 |
rob_p | Tricks: Ah,ha! That would be your ACLs set to allow localhost only! That would do it! | 12:03 |
rob_p | Tricks: Glad you got it up and running. Congrats! :-) | 12:03 |

LjL | bugs_bugger: it's often like that. anyway if you're using the open-source ATI driver, maybe switching to the proprietary one would fix this; if you're using the Nvidia one, there are more than one version of it available in the repos, so you might possibly try another. it's just guesses though | 12:15 |
indus | matteo1990, gone where ? | 12:16 |
indus | matteo1990, ok then i xterm you can install it | 12:16 |

ubuntu51 | any idea of default password of root in new ubuntu | 12:17 |
odb|fidel | ubuntu51: use sudo | 12:17 |
Vroomfondle | ubuntu51: there is no root in ubuntu by default. | 12:17 |
Vroomfondle | !root | 12:17 |
ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 12:17 |
ubuntu51 | my problem is i can't uninstall my codeweavers | 12:18 |
wizard_ | can anyone tell me how I can find out if I have the latest version of xbmc installed | 12:18 |
Vroomfondle | use sudo | 12:18 |
matteo1990 | matteo1990, i have xterm on. My nvidia driver was updating and my system crash, i need only to open a terminal but i dunno how | 12:18 |
anodesni | how about 'sudo su'? | 12:18 |
odb|fidel | wizard_: check if apt offers something newer ;) | 12:18 |
odb|fidel | if you got it via apt at all | 12:18 |
wizard_ | odb|fidel, how | 12:18 |
Tricks | rob_p, thanks for all your help mate name resolution seems to be noticably quicker now | 12:18 |
odb|fidel | wizard_: did you install that app using apt/aptitude? | 12:19 |
rob_p | anodesni: Probably better to just use sudo. | 12:19 |
rob_p | Tricks: Welcome. Take care. | 12:19 |
wizard_ | odb|fidel, I added a repo then updated it then took it from it, find it online | 12:19 |

indus | matteo1990, you can install from xterm, dont you see a $ symbol | 12:20 |
odb|fidel | wizard_: so run update/upgrade and you are done based on the repos you have | 12:20 |
wizard_ | odb|fidel, you see it wont play video and it sometimes crashes when I exit it | 12:20 |

dannbrown | i think lucid is bad than karmic?? | 12:22 |
indus | matteo1990, hmm did you try ctl atl f2 or f3 | 12:22 |
Tricks | rob_p that's reassuring to know :) thanks again. hope work doesn't drag too much for ya :) | 12:22 |
matteo1990 | indus, yea... blank screen :S | 12:23 |
indus | matteo1990, can you reboot into another older kernel | 12:23 |
Heikki123 | so, any ideas on the sound problem? Sound is stopping from wine programs when screen saver gets on. also native linux programs will get a short silent moment when the screensaver gets on | 12:23 |
rob_p | Tricks: I love my job! I get paid while I sit here frequenting the Ubuntu support channel! :-) | 12:23 |

Dr_Willis | !apt | ubuntu51 | 12:25 |
ubottu | ubuntu51: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Adept (KDE) or !KPackageKit (KDE) | 12:25 |
Tricks | rob_p i have to admit I'm supporting a range of ubuntu and centos webservers and they never give me any hassle. It's the windows clients that cause the trouble | 12:25 |
ActionParsnip | rob_p: same here, esx is fine. VM hosts running win 2003 give the grief | 12:25 |
Tricks | rob_p I think I've had to restart mysql on one server once cause it crashed and that's all I've had to do lol | 12:26 |
phretor | hi, what's wrong with this? sudo mount -o remount,noatime,auto,rw,dev,exec,suid,nouser,data=writeback /dev/sda6 ? It says "mount: / not mounted already, or bad option" | 12:26 |
matteo1990 | ActionParsnip, Thx alot :) I'll give a look :) | 12:26 |
ActionParsnip | phretor: you havent specified a mount point | 12:26 |
phretor | ah, damn it | 12:27 |
Dr_Willis | unless fstab had an entry for /dev/sda6 | 12:27 |
rob_p | Tricks: CentOS is solid. I use it for a VOIP gateway device for 2-way radio comms. It's been very reliable. | 12:27 |
ActionParsnip | phretor: the mount point must exist too, its not mounts job to make mount points | 12:27 |
phretor | ActionParsnip: I am remounting / | 12:27 |
ActionParsnip | phretor: / will always exist :) | 12:27 |
Dr_Willis | thats a lot of options to be using also. :) | 12:28 |
phretor | Dr_Willis: what's wrong with their numerosity? | 12:28 |
Tricks | rob_p same here we have asterisk running on it never gone down, never been rebooted all i have to do it login once a month to clear down the call recordings | 12:28 |
indus | phretor, yeah dont need that many options | 12:28 |
ActionParsnip | Dr_Willis: noatime is ood for speed boots (a tiny bit) | 12:28 |
indus | phretor, i have mounted partitions just with vfat | 12:28 |
phretor | indus: I do need all of them. | 12:28 |
indus | phretor, or whatever | 12:28 |
indus | phretor, ok | 12:28 |
rob_p | ActionParsnip: I have a handful of servers running on a Vmware server host. They are most Ubuntu VMs but I've got a couple of other flavors runing as well. | 12:28 |
indus | phretor, better add it to fstab then | 12:28 |
ActionParsnip | rob_p: we virtualise a lot of citrix and web boxes | 12:29 |
phretor | indus: I cannot reboot. | 12:29 |
rob_p | ActionParsnip: Sounds pretty slick. | 12:29 |
Tricks | rob_p centOS 100% uptime in over a year, windows host would probably be about 80% | 12:29 |
kaushal | checking in again for the query ? | 12:29 |
ActionParsnip | rob_p: its good fun but they are crappy IBMs so don't reboot properly on schedule which mean I gotta button the suckkas | 12:29 |
rob_p | Tricks: I run Asterisk on one of my VMs under Ubuntu. Rock-solid thus far. | 12:30 |
Dr_Willis | phretor: most of those options i think are the defaults anyway | 12:30 |
phretor | Dr_Willis: not noatime | 12:30 |
Dr_Willis | phretor: so you need one option then? :) | 12:30 |
rob_p | ActionParsnip: Yeah, sometimes you have to deal with crappy hardware. Software can only do so much! | 12:30 |
Dr_Willis | well remount and noatime. | 12:30 |
phretor | Dr_Willis: at least that, but I'd rather be sure all the others are applied. | 12:30 |
ActionParsnip | rob_p: last job used some new dells and they were flawless :) | 12:31 |
John1010 | Good Day, | 12:31 |
Dr_Willis | Im not even sure what 'nouser' even does | 12:31 |
John1010 | I need help installing my W/C card | 12:31 |
rob_p | ActionParsnip: Dell seems to have a nice server product range. | 12:31 |
ActionParsnip | rob_p: one acronym: DRAC | 12:31 |
ActionParsnip | John1010: whats w/c ? water closet? | 12:32 |
John1010 | :) Wirless card | 12:32 |
ActionParsnip | so you want to install a wireless card card? | 12:32 |
John1010 | is this the right place to ask ? | 12:32 |
rob_p | ActionParsnip: Yeah. Out of band management is *very* handy! | 12:32 |
ActionParsnip | sure if you are using ubuntu | 12:32 |
John1010 | well i am using backtrack 4 which is based on ubuntu | 12:33 |
ActionParsnip | John1010: please dont abbreviate things unless they are defacto standard abbreviations | 12:33 |
ActionParsnip | John1010: its not supported here | 12:33 |
ActionParsnip | !bt4 | John1010 | 12:33 |
ActionParsnip | !backtrack | 12:33 |
ubottu | There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 12:33 |
ActionParsnip | John1010: its based on ubuntu but isnt ubuntu, its backtrack. you need to join #backtrack-linux | 12:34 |
John1010 | how to join that channel please advice | 12:34 |
ActionParsnip | John1010: /join #backtrack-linux | 12:34 |
Dr_Willis | John1010: how did you join this one? | 12:34 |
Aciid | Dr_Willis: dont assume the IQ level | 12:35 |
ActionParsnip | its an honest question | 12:35 |
John1010 | I just open the chat and select the channel then i clicked on it | 12:35 |
John1010 | thanks for those who want to help | 12:35 |
Dr_Willis | Aciid: i was just wiondering if backtrack is so good that they dident bother to change their default channels for their chat programs.. :) | 12:36 |
arkhe | I'm looking to switch from Windows to Ubuntu, but have one question: Will Ubuntu handle some core drivers automatically like Windows? Like, will it recognize a mouse when I plug a mouse in, and any needed drivers for the hardware on my PC? | 12:36 |
Dr_Willis | Aciid: or if he actually selected #ubuntu | 12:36 |
ActionParsnip | Dr_Willis: i doubt it ;) | 12:36 |
Dr_Willis | ActionParsnip: lets go file a bug on the backtrack forums/bug thing then. ;) | 12:37 |
rob_p | arkhe: Most common things, yes. Less common things, maybe. | 12:37 |
abhi_nav | Dr_Willis, lol :D | 12:37 |
Aciid | Dr_Willis: yeah i hate that, I've actually seen the discussion at bactrack and aircrack related channels. 90% is "does it run on windows" "will my wireless dongle work" "how do I shoot the wep" | 12:37 |
ActionParsnip | Dr_Willis: never uderstood it, you can install ubuntu then instal all the garbage which makes up a backtrack install and get support in the official cannel. | 12:37 |
Tricks | rob_p I have had a look on the net and found a few example zone files | 12:37 |
Aciid | IRC should be disallowed by morality Default before you have actually researched by yourself | 12:38 |
arkhe | rob_p I'm planning to save a few personal files, then wipe my hard-drive. I just want to make sure that if I tried to install Ubuntu on a clean HD it will work. So I shouldn't have problems with that plan? | 12:38 |
rob_p | arkhe: Nearly all mice, keyboards, sound cards, network interface cards (wired), usually just work. | 12:38 |
ActionParsnip | Aciid: people are essentially lazy | 12:38 |
rob_p | arkhe: You don't even have to do that! Simply boot-up to the live CD and give it a test run! | 12:38 |
arkhe | Okay. Thanks. :) | 12:38 |
rob_p | arkhe: Welcome! Good luck! | 12:38 |
ActionParsnip | arkhe: make sure you backup all the hidden files in $HOME and you will retain configs | 12:39 |
Aciid | ActionParsnip: I have lost all fate in humanity | 12:39 |
ActionParsnip | Aciid: not faith?.... | 12:39 |
h-kan | hi, some quick questions. How do you set runlevel 3 when there is no inittab and is there an easy way to manage what starts in different runlevels? like chkconfig on redhat systems? | 12:40 |
rob_p | Tricks: Yeah, pretty straight-forward. Just keep in mind that the syntax of pretty much *all* config files for Bind9 are very particular. | 12:40 |
erUSUL | !runlevels | h-kan | 12:40 |
ubottu | h-kan: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 12:40 |
seasonfive | Hi all ! I've a question for you guys: Why did ubuntu still perform a complete check disk from times to times ? i though that the need of complete check disk disappeared with ext2 | 12:40 |
ActionParsnip | Aciid: the saying is lost faith, not fate | 12:40 |
rob_p | Tricks: It's very easy to leave out a {, }, or a semi-colon, etc. | 12:41 |
erUSUL | seasonfive: what ws eliminated was the fsck after unclean shutdwon ( power outage ) no the periodic fsck performed every 30 mounts or so | 12:41 |
erUSUL | seasonfive: man tunefs | 12:41 |
Tricks | rob_p, the only part that's a little confusing is that there's alot of reference to a TLD being used but in my case this isn't necessary because I mine is local | 12:42 |
seasonfive | erUSUL, thanks. But i though that ext3 has a fast recovery thanks to its journal ? | 12:42 |
Tricks | rob_p, do I leave that stuff out? | 12:42 |
kaushal | can some one please guide me about my post on ubuntu mailing list https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2010-July/222568.html | 12:42 |
rob_p | Tricks: Yeah. You can make one up if you like. | 12:42 |
seasonfive | erUSUL, I mean i think i never had trouble reported by this periodical check | 12:42 |
rob_p | Tricks: I think it will complain if you leave it out. | 12:42 |
erUSUL | seasonfive: yes; that has nothing to do with periodic shceduled sanity checks that you can disable if you want | 12:43 |
erUSUL | seasonfive: i advice you not to; btw | 12:43 |
purvesh | can some one help me to Announcement of Translation Team and other Guideline Details | 12:44 |
Tricks | rob_p, ok cool, what's it used for then? Is it for large domains where there will be more than one DNS servers? | 12:44 |
h-kan | ubottu: tnx. is there any frontend for !upstart than or how does it know what to start? | 12:44 |
seasonfive | erUSUL, thanks for your answer. Do you have an idea of what errors can be discovered this way ? I though ext3 was near unbreakable (in regards of data inconsistency). Is it more a hardware check ? | 12:45 |
rob_p | Tricks: I never bothered with name resolution of local hosts. But I do recall seeing examples of local only zone files floating around the 'Net. | 12:45 |
rob_p | Tricks: What's what used for? The TLD? That | 12:46 |
rob_p | Tricks: That's what the zone is going to define. | 12:46 |
erUSUL | seasonfive: maybe an alpha ray comming from space flipped some bits in your no ECC RAM ( so no error detected or correctd) that affected filesystem metadata ..... :) | 12:46 |
NigelS | !upstart | h-kan | 12:46 |
ubottu | h-kan: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 12:46 |
Dr_Willis | kaushal: you could at leaast summarize the issue - if you excpect anyone to go to a site to discuss it. | 12:46 |
NigelS | h-kan: ubottu is a bot :) | 12:46 |
erUSUL | seasonfive: i do not find a chack every 30 mounts that cumbersome; you can up that number ( say do the check every 40 - 50 mounts ) | 12:47 |
h-kan | NigelS: i noticed that now ;) | 12:47 |
rob_p | Tricks: So you make up a local domain and then create the zone file for it. | 12:47 |
Tricks | rob_p found a good thread so i'm going to read through that :) | 12:47 |
seasonfive | erUSUL, But then what about servers wich "never" reboot (so never remount) ? | 12:47 |
kaushal | Dr_Willis: will summarize the issue | 12:48 |
=== tachyon is now known as Guest21635 |

kaushal | I dont get count of approximately 43Gb | 12:48 |
erUSUL | seasonfive: well thats a problem the sysadmin has to cope with himself :) servers have ECC RAM poor pc's do not | 12:49 |
erUSUL | seasonfive: again; disable the checks if you want. is really up to you | 12:49 |
kaushal | I have run du -hs /* /.[^.]* on hardy server | 12:49 |
kaushal | df -h reports differently | 12:50 |
kaushal | Dr_Willis: Please suggest | 12:50 |
ActionParsnip | erUSUL: servers simply offer a service to client(s) hence server, it's nothing to do with quality of ram | 12:50 |
=== adan0s_ is now known as adan0s |
seasonfive | erUSUL, sure i know i can disable it. I ask that only to know "why its needed". Though modern file system didn't need off-line check (perform error recovery "on fly" when possible) | 12:51 |
erUSUL | ActionParsnip: i'm only saying that *typical* server hardware has ECC RAM as opposed to *typical* pc hardware | 12:51 |
seasonfive | erUSUL, you were really patient :-p Thanks a lot for all your answers | 12:51 |
joobong | how do i install a web server on my machine? | 12:51 |
ActionParsnip | erUSUL: possibly ;) depends on many factors, but its offtopic here | 12:51 |
erUSUL | seasonfive: (perform error recovery "on fly" when possible) <<< that's not true. what ext3 did by adding a journal was avoiding the fsck after unclean umount; that and *only* that | 12:52 |
Dr_Willis | kaushal: some tools are using MiB these days instead of the old MB. and 5% of a filesystem is normally reserved also (tuneable with the tune2fs command) | 12:52 |
bazhang | !lamp | joobong | 12:53 |
ubottu | joobong: 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+) | 12:53 |

GArReT | Hey guys. I was here yesterday. I'm trying to make my USB modem work on my Ubuntu PC, but is in some way unsuccsessful. I plugged it in and I did a "lsUSB" and my modem was shown there, but I dont know if Ubuntu installed it or not... It needs to connect via PPPoE... Do I need software that i need to install or what? | 13:06 |
kaushal | jrib: Did i posted it correctly now ? | 13:06 |
ActionParsnip | GArReT: websearch for the 8 character ID to find guides | 13:07 |

GArReT | ActionParsnip, EgyParadox, the problem is that I dont know if Ubuntu Supports my modem.... i still need to find that out | 13:08 |

ActionParsnip | mikelifeguard: right click the file select open with, its all tere | 13:12 |
blue_anna | seasonfive, lots .. like I was saying, since the libc updates on lucid just the other day, now suddenly my machine hard freezes for no reason :) | 13:12 |
blue_anna | seasonfive, there's no segfaults, nothing in the logs | 13:12 |
ylmfos | thank you bazhang | 13:12 |
blue_anna | seasonfive, not even if I remove and plug in USB hardware does it interrupt | 13:13 |
blue_anna | seasonfive, or if I let it run for an hour | 13:13 |
seasonfive | blue_anna, from what i know, nothing crash without logs. Sounds like hardware/driver problem more than libc related. But i can be wrong :) | 13:13 |
blue_anna | seasonfive, hmm -- well like you pointed it, it isnt technically crashing. it's freezing | 13:14 |
blue_anna | but it just keeps on freezing all day long :P | 13:14 |
seasonfive | blue_anna, So everything was fine, then installed this new libc, then just after everything froze ? | 13:14 |
blue_anna | shortly after, its been like 3 times now that it's frozen | 13:15 |

seasonfive | blue_anna, cpu temperature ? | 13:15 |
zetheroo | gthumb and gimp are still broken in Lucid after most recent updates :( | 13:15 |
blue_anna | low -- I run my cpu at 50% frequency because it keeps the fan noise down | 13:15 |
razz1 | I am unable to connect using ssh, could someone tell me whats wrong, this is the command: ssh -C 202.xxx.xx.xxx -p 22 -L 5900:10.xxx.xx.xxx:5900 -l pat | 13:15 |
[diablo] | hi all, does Ubuntu have a UUID stored anywhere to identify the computer please? | 13:15 |
blue_anna | seasonfive, low -- I run my cpu at 50% frequency because it keeps the fan noise down | 13:15 |
dubey | i am trying to connect my USB 3g Data Card on Ubuntu 10.04, but not able to detect it | 13:16 |
PerryArmstrong | ActionParsnip: Can you check this: i tried to convert files from html to text but it didnt work out http://paste.ubuntu.com/460608/ | 13:16 |
dubey | when i plugin my card and do lsusb it show me the details of device but not able detect as modem device | 13:16 |
seasonfive | blue_anna, does it freeze on the desktop ? does it freeze before desktop ? | 13:16 |
blue_anna | seasonfive, it's after the desktop -- the last log mssage was at 1100 seconds | 13:17 |
dubey | can anyone help me ? | 13:17 |
EgyParadox | razz1: ssh -C ? | 13:17 |
slinker1 | PerryArmstrong: can you post the sh file | 13:17 |
blue_anna | seasonfive, althoguh most of that time was idle :P | 13:17 |
Tricks | rob_p, got a bit of a problem | 13:17 |
VCoolio | [diablo]: not sure what you mean, but try 'sudo blkid' | 13:17 |
seasonfive | blue_anna, if you are on the desktop, a lot of programs using libc has been executed yet ... | 13:17 |
Tricks | rob_p can i post what I've done and you take a look if you're not busy | 13:17 |
PerryArmstrong | ActionParsnip: the sh file contains the same code.... | 13:18 |
seasonfive | blue_anna, NVIDIA drivers ? | 13:18 |
blue_anna | seasonfive, I wish -- nop, powerpc architecture, no binaries | 13:18 |
Dr_Willis | razz1: ssh has a -v and -vv and -vvv option that give more verbose error messages | 13:18 |
PerryArmstrong | slinker1, the sh file contains the steps that i ran on the shell | 13:18 |
seasonfive | blue_anna, is freeze commong on ppc ? :p | 13:18 |
EgyParadox | razz1: ssh -C is an option for compression remove that ip addres after it | 13:19 |
slinker1 | PerryArmstrong: sure but what you posted does not show what commands you ran so hard to debug :) | 13:19 |
neil_d | I am running the KVM virtual machine... using the 'Virtual Machine Manager 0.7.0'... which uses libvirt... on my AMD 64 bit CPU the guests are 32bit... can I make it start 64bit guests? | 13:19 |
seasonfive | blue_anna, how many times after boot the freeze happen ? | 13:19 |
blue_anna | seasonfive, I've had it freeze for other stupid reasons, yes -- but running lucid-official packages in the manner they were intented, not so much :P | 13:19 |
razz1 | EgyP, even with out compression it will not connect | 13:19 |
dubey | anyone ? | 13:19 |

seasonfive | blue_anna, i think my linux never froze by itsef : always hardware/driver related problem. | 13:20 |

razz1 | egyp, nmap says its port 22 | 13:23 |
purvesh | askhader, can u solve my problem ? | 13:23 |
askhader | What problem? | 13:23 |
blue_anna | seasonfive, hmm this is true -- but just in case -- any idea how I can scope out the changes that came down the pipe recently and revert them? | 13:23 |
EgyParadox | is it open? | 13:24 |
EgyParadox | does nmap say its open? | 13:24 |
razz1 | EgyP, yes | 13:24 |
seasonfive | blue_anna, i have no idea, sorry. | 13:24 |
purvesh | askhader, i want to announce that my team accepted at Ubuntu Translation team | 13:24 |
razz1 | EgyP, does it matter that uSB modems on ppp0 | 13:25 |
seasonfive | blue_anna, but i will be surprised that your problem is libc related | 13:25 |
blue_anna | since it happens to so closely fit the pattern of freezes happening only after the install, I think it's a lot more likely than a spontaneous combustion of hardware ;) | 13:26 |
EgyParadox | razz1: Have you enabled port forwarding ? | 13:26 |
[Screamo] | whats the difference between nvidia-96 and nvidia-glx-96 | 13:26 |
seasonfive | blue_anna, then libc works until desktop then stop working ? | 13:26 |

razz1 | EgyP, SSH portforwarding? or firewall portforwarding? | 13:27 |
joker_89 | hi | 13:27 |
blue_anna | well, -- I agree, maybe its some specific combination with one of the desktop apps I launched | 13:27 |
seasonfive | blue_anna, looks strange to me | 13:27 |
blue_anna | the one that always gives me the most problems is empathy -- it might be something that only empathy uses in the packages that updated | 13:28 |
EgyParadox | razz1: Have you tried ssh pat@202.XX.XX.XX? | 13:28 |
tristan | font dammit! i can't figure out how to get it, i have a launchpad account | 13:28 |
tristan | i want it so bad, the new font | 13:28 |
razz1 | EgyP, server doesnot have a firewall. It uses a USB 3g modem | 13:28 |
seasonfive | blue_anna, which use memory (memory problem) or perform intensive cpu task (cpu overheating). | 13:28 |
joker_89 | anyone have a laptop using i3,i5 ? i hear an high pitch noise from processor where is in idle state. when processor is at 100% then the noise dissapear. | 13:28 |

smt-mobil | hi all, just a small question, ive got different scripts to do the same, they get called by different users, they both utilize cp (with -f) and chmod afterwards to set permissions to 777, now when i call that script that didnt initially create the target file(s) i get an permission denied on chmod, shouldnt the -f switch in cp remove the old file and create a new one with the right owner? | 13:31 |
tristan | thank you | 13:31 |

miazgator | will flash player issues ever be fixed in Ubuntu? Kubuntu doesn't lag on fullscreen youtube clips when hovering over controls and Ubuntu does on all my 4 machines. | 13:36 |

RudyValencia | !ask | 13:37 |
ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 13:37 |

downstream | RudyValencia: if you didn't notice the pun, oh well | 13:37 |
Misterio | miazgator: That depends, if there is official-flash, ubuntu won't be able to fix it. If is free-flash or godknowswhat free programm, canonical will fix it (if there is a real bug) | 13:38 |
RudyValencia | downstream: ah lol sorry | 13:38 |
Sego | RudyValencia: How do you find out what programs are on your computer that you can run from the command line? | 13:39 |
miazgator | Misterio: it's Ubuntu related bug, same flashplugin same browsers in Kubuntu and Ubuntu, and in Kubuntu everything is fine | 13:39 |
MaRk-I | vu1kan: If I remember correctly I offered you the steps to compile from source which you declined | 13:39 |
miazgator | Misterio: I am having this bug since like half a year now, and still no fix | 13:40 |
Misterio | miazgator: DId you check in another browser? | 13:40 |
vu1kan | MaRk-I: yeah...i'm beginning to re-think that...i'm gonna give a day or two, hope that the ppa gets updated, i've never tried to compile and i don't wanna muss up | 13:41 |
miazgator | Misterio: Firefox, Opera, Chromium, Chrome and lots of smaller ones like Empathy etc | 13:41 |

Wil_syd | razz1: sounds like sshd cannot listen to port 22 because something else is using it. This post has some troubleshooting steps to find what is using a particular port.... http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-331673.html | 14:04 |
cheater99 | mouser--: do you mean the laplink from laplink.com? | 14:04 |
mouser-- | cheater99: Yeah. I have version 5 running on the source computer. | 14:05 |
vu1kan | additonally, it appears to be updating when i hit the button or when i <apt-get update>, but i'm still not seeing the packages in synaptic (sorry 'bout the multi line) | 14:05 |
cheater99 | mouser--: i bet you it's just a normal parallel cable. | 14:06 |
cheater99 | mouser--: in which case you can just use the faq :) | 14:07 |
mouser-- | cheater99: I'm also dual-booting with WinXP Pro, but from what I've read, XP doesn't support parallel the same way as previous versions of Windows do. Sure, it's a normal parallel cable. I just bought it the other day. | 14:07 |
cheater99 | oh right, the faq is for serial | 14:07 |

cheater99 | mouser--: it's just seen as a normal network connection. | 14:10 |
Tricks | can anybody help with me setting up a local DNS server | 14:10 |
mouser-- | cheater99: The other computer only has Win3.1. | 14:10 |
cheater99 | so what do you have? 3.1 and linux? | 14:10 |
cheater99 | or 3.1 and xp? | 14:11 |
blablubb | Tricks: That's a complex topic. What have you done so far? | 14:11 |

Tricks | blablubb, indeed but for some reason I'm getting errors on mine, can i post it and you have a look? | 14:12 |
cheater99 | mouser--: just follow that ms article, and set up a normal 'network connection'. should work. | 14:12 |
blablubb | Tricks: Just add a regular Zonefile, and for each server ad line: "Servername IN A ipaddres" | 14:12 |
blablubb | Tricks: Sure, post it somewhere. | 14:13 |
jrib | sc30317: if it's down, use a different key server | 14:13 |
cheater99 | you might have more luck using something like norton commander. | 14:13 |
cheater99 | i think it had special options for parallel port links | 14:13 |
Tricks | blablubb, I'm kinda new to this so I've probs done something wrong | 14:13 |

blablubb | Tricks: I think I found the error. I'm correcting the file. Just a second. | 14:21 |
mouser-- | cheater99: Thanks. I'll try one of those. If I could figure out how to dual-boot with FreeDOS and XP/Ubuntu and could find my old copy of Laplink, I'd just use that. | 14:21 |
Dr_Willis | Anarchy7: clarify what you mean 'at the same time' | 14:21 |
mahen23 | [Screamo]: you know how to change gnome themes, try playing around, see if it gets ok? | 14:22 |
cheater99 | mouser--: just get an old hdd. or even boot off a live cd. | 14:22 |
cheater99 | there's a freedos live cd floating around. | 14:22 |

ActionParsnip | trizicus: you could customise the livecd and remove the nouveau package from the cd, then burn your new iso | 14:35 |
iksik | ok, sorry :P | 14:35 |
trizicus | ActionParsnip: I blacklist the nouveau driver and then startx but then it uses nouveau still. | 14:35 |
indus | iksik, but wht is the point you are making ? | 14:35 |
trizicus | ActionParsnip: how to customize? | 14:35 |
rystraum | indus: It's a security issue. | 14:36 |
indus | iksik, its a known issue > | 14:36 |
indus | ? | 14:36 |
ActionParsnip | cheater99: in the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= quotes | 14:36 |
iksik | indus, i want to know is there any patch for ubuntu on this issue | 14:36 |
Ranjan_ | vaibhav:: hope the above link 'll help you | 14:36 |
indus | hmm ok | 14:36 |
Pici | iksik: What day is that CVE from? | 14:36 |
Dr_Willis | nange: not sure. I use nvidia. You could use one of their forum posts xorg.conf's if they have one | 14:36 |
iksik | i see there is something in debian repo | 14:36 |
ActionParsnip | !customise | trizicus | 14:36 |
cheater99 | ActionParsnip: what file? | 14:36 |
iksik | but what with ubuntu? | 14:36 |
nange | Dr_Willis: I also need to be able to un-dock my laptop and use it, something that currently works. If i add an xorg.conf i think i will lose that ability. | 14:36 |
indus | 32 8 2010 it says | 14:36 |
iksik | Pici i have no idea | 14:36 |
indus | how | 14:36 |
ActionParsnip | cheater99: like you said /etc/default/grub | 14:36 |
Dr_Willis | nange: no idea on that. just have to try it and see | 14:36 |
TestSao | Hi | 14:36 |
koskos | :( | 14:36 |
TestSao | My hard drive is not recognised by Ubuntu | 14:36 |
cheater99 | ActionParsnip: file doesn't exist | 14:36 |
trizicus | ActionParsnip: nothing came up | 14:36 |
TestSao | Doesn't show up in GParted, etc... | 14:36 |
barfster | Is there a channel dealing with bios? | 14:37 |
ActionParsnip | cheater99: do you use grub or grub2 | 14:37 |
vaibhav | Ranjan_: ya let me check... | 14:37 |
koskos | how to install python models | 14:37 |
TestSao | I'm on 10.4 (Gnome) | 14:37 |
indus | Pici, iksik so in laymans terms, what can be possible with this vulnerability | 14:37 |
cheater99 | ActionParsnip: i think grub | 14:37 |
cheater99 | no | 14:37 |
TestSao | The HD is SATA3, no RAID,... | 14:37 |
cheater99 | grub 2. | 14:37 |
ActionParsnip | trizicus: if you'd websearch a little using my guidance you'd have found this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization | 14:37 |
indus | koskos, i told you already how to import into existing file | 14:37 |
blablubb | Tricks: http://pastebin.com/hy80enEi | 14:37 |
indus | koskos, also no such thing as a python 'model' you mean module ? | 14:37 |
cheater99 | ActionParsnip: actually, i'm confused. not sure. how do i check? | 14:37 |
trizicus | ActionParsnip: I found a link however it requires linux installed... I can't install linux so I cant customize ubuntu... | 14:37 |
ActionParsnip | cheater99: then you will need to add it in /boot/grub/menu.lst to the end of each kernel line | 14:37 |
iksik | indus, erm, everything... when You gain a root privilages, you can do enything... i'm using ubuntu on one local server, thats why i'm veeeery interested with some patch on this issue ;/ | 14:37 |
koskos | sorry im new | 14:38 |
koskos | but how i do that :$ | 14:38 |
cheater99 | ah there's menu.lst, found it | 14:38 |
indus | koskos, tell me clearly what is it you are trying to do | 14:38 |
ActionParsnip | trizicus: you'll need a workbench to work in so yes you will need linux installed, or if you have a tone of ram you can do it in the live cd | 14:38 |
cheater99 | so for example i have: kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic root=UUID=91998c61-9582-4840-9ef9-5c467deaf1f8 ro quiet splash | 14:38 |
koskos | maybe pv? indus | 14:38 |
indus | iksik,if iam correct, /etc/shadow is symlinked to ./cache? | 14:38 |
Pici | iksik: Let me do a little digging and I'll get back to you. | 14:38 |
iksik | indus, right | 14:38 |
koskos | can i pm u ?:O | 14:38 |
barfster | Is unetbootin a GUI app? or console? | 14:38 |
rob_p | iksik: There is NO priv escalation on /etc/shadow following the alleged sym-link attack on my Ubuntu 10.04 install. | 14:38 |
iksik | Pici ok | 14:38 |
indus | koskos, ask here man, its better | 14:39 |
koskos | ok | 14:39 |
Dr_Willis | barfster: gui. and avail for linux and windows | 14:39 |
mnemoc | hello, is there any mirror of keyserver.ubuntu.com? | 14:39 |
trizicus | ActionParsnip: This problem is live cd related... The live cd doesn't work... How can I do it on a live cd when I am having nouveau errors? | 14:39 |
koskos | tell me commands to do that plz | 14:39 |
rww | iksik, Pici CVE-2010-0832 | 14:39 |
iksik | rob_p hum, your user is not an owner of shadow after this? | 14:39 |
koskos | python | 14:39 |
rww | .. stupid paste key | 14:39 |
cheater99 | and i'd change that to.. kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic root=UUID=91998c61-9582-4840-9ef9-5c467deaf1f8 ro quiet splash i8024.reset i8024.nomux=1 right? | 14:39 |
ActionParsnip | trizicus: any ubunu livecd will do | 14:39 |
indus | koskos, to do what , what do you want to install? | 14:39 |
rww | iksik, Pici: CVE-2010-0832 looks fixed to me: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2010-July/001117.html | 14:39 |
barfster | Is there a command line version of unetbootin? | 14:39 |
ActionParsnip | cheater99: thats the one, try different combiniation | 14:39 |
rob_p | iksik: Nope: rob@hostserver:~$ ls -l /etc/shadow | 14:39 |
rob_p | -rw-r----- 1 root shadow 875 2010-02-05 03:30 /etc/shadow | 14:39 |
cheater99 | ActionParsnip: different combination? | 14:40 |
Tricks | blablubb, wicked thanks dude | 14:40 |
indus | koskos, python is installed by default on ubuntu, to run a program type in a terminal python filename | 14:40 |
Dr_Willis | barfster: check the pendrivelinux web site. they may have scripts.tools to do it | 14:40 |
Tricks | blablubb, I have more errors though lol | 14:40 |
ActionParsnip | cheater99: like only using one, or the other. You will need to play to see what you need to make it work | 14:40 |
koskos | i know | 14:40 |
koskos | bro | 14:40 |
iksik | rww hum, then why 10.04 is still vulnerable ? | 14:40 |
koskos | this program i try to run | 14:40 |
cheater99 | ActionParsnip: ok thanks | 14:40 |
koskos | need some new modules | 14:40 |
iksik | rww i've updated to 10.04 few days ago | 14:40 |
blablubb | Tricks: What errors do you get now? | 14:40 |
koskos | its not on my computer | 14:40 |
FloodBot2 | koskos: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 14:40 |
indus | iksik, i dont understand the ./cache thing though, can any file be screwed like this | 14:40 |
pam_ | indus, i believe koskos is trying to ask how to install a python module which does not come as part of the standard distribution | 14:40 |
Pici | iksik: Update. | 14:40 |
Pici | iksik: The update came out yesterday. | 14:41 |

koskos | brother | 14:41 |
koskos | that wht i mean | 14:41 |
Tricks | blablubb, now my zone is a "bad" zone (that's not very nice is it) apparently there are no NS records for zone lingray.uk | 14:41 |
indus | pam_, you should help him then :) | 14:41 |
=== emergion_ is now known as emergion |
koskos | when i type python and i got that >> | 14:41 |
iksik | Pici, I see libpam-* | 14:41 |
indus | pam_, you waiting for me ? :D | 14:41 |
koskos | wht should i type then ? | 14:41 |
ubclick | is gentoo dead | 14:41 |

koskos | yea | 14:42 |
indus | koskos, this is #UBUNTU channel | 14:42 |
koskos | i have:$ | 14:42 |
Pici | iksik: I just patched and tried it again after resetting the ownership and it didn't work. | 14:42 |
blablubb | Tricks: Did you add the zone to named.conf and told Bind that it is the master for it? | 14:42 |
barfster | I need to make a bootable memory stick, what is the way to go? | 14:42 |
mnemoc | is there any mirror of keyserver.ubuntu.com? | 14:42 |
koskos | its very good | 14:42 |
koskos | nooooooooooooo | 14:42 |
Pici | s/patched/updted | 14:42 |

barfster | I need to make a bootable memory stick, what is the way to go for command line? | 14:42 |
koskos | the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead import md5 | 14:42 |
Dr_Willis | barfster: deoebnds on what you are wanting to boot. You can set up grub2 on it to boot a ubuntu ISO file if you wanted to | 14:42 |
Pici | iksik: see https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pam | 14:42 |
iksik | Pici ok | 14:42 |
koskos | this wht i got brother | 14:42 |
Pici | rww: Thanks for the links | 14:42 |
Dr_Willis | barfster: or use the ubuntu usb-disk-creator tool | 14:42 |
indus | koskos, any module in your home can be imported just by typing 'import modulename' | 14:42 |
Pici | mnemoc: use pgp.mit.edu | 14:42 |
trojan | hello | 14:43 |
Tricks | I did indeed | 14:43 |
barfster | apt-get install usb-disk-creator then? | 14:43 |
=== Ranjan_ is now known as Ranjan |
mnemoc | Pici: the ppa-related key i want isn't there :( | 14:43 |
rww | Pici: np. I knew there'd be a use to subscribing to ubuntu-security-annouce ;P | 14:43 |
Dr_Willis | barfster: its in the default ubuntu system/admin menu | 14:43 |
Tricks | blablubb, I'm wondering if I've missed a step though... | 14:43 |
Anarchy7 | hey guys I just installed ubuntu and I was able to see 5-6 wireless networks, I rebooted now I see none :S | 14:43 |
koskos | import: command not found | 14:43 |
koskos | :( | 14:43 |
koskos | md5 | 14:44 |
indus | koskos, heh not possible :D | 14:44 |
koskos | :( | 14:44 |
rystraum | koskos: Are you in the python shell or in the regular shell? | 14:44 |
indus | koskos, wait 1 sec | 14:44 |
koskos | regular | 14:44 |
koskos | brother | 14:44 |
blablubb | Anarchy7: Is the wireless activated? | 14:44 |
Pici | !enter | koskos | 14:44 |
ubottu | koskos: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 14:44 |
indus | koskos, you need to enter python shell | 14:44 |
rob_p | iksik: I was mistaken! I was ssh'd into an older box when I tried it. On Ubuntu 10.04, it does indeed give the user ownership of /etc/shadow! WOW! | 14:44 |
rystraum | koskos: import works within python. | 14:45 |
koskos | ok | 14:45 |
indus | koskos, type python in terminal | 14:45 |
Anarchy7 | blablubb , yes I told you I was able to see 5-6 networds, I rebooted now I see none | 14:45 |
koskos | done | 14:45 |
indus | LEARN SOME PYTHON FIRST | 14:45 |
iksik | rob_p :-) | 14:45 |
Tricks | blablubb, is it because DNS can't resolve it's FQDN | 14:45 |
indus | this is not the channel for that | 14:45 |
Pici | rob_p: Please update. There was an update yesterday to fix this. | 14:45 |
koskos | ImportError: No module named libhash | 14:45 |
^mNotIntelligent | hi all ! | 14:45 |
rob_p | iksik: I'm glad I don't have 10.04 in production! | 14:45 |
bobfcincinnati | can anyone reccomend a stats program that will let me open minitab *.mtw files? | 14:45 |
blablubb | Anarchy7: Is the wireless still acticated _after_ the reboot? You can deactivate the wireless card from within the Desktop | 14:45 |
Tricks | blablubb, do i need to make a entry for lingray.uk to point to my name server do you think? | 14:45 |
rob_p | Pici: Will do! Thanks for the heads up! | 14:45 |
indus | koskos, try #python | 14:45 |
^mNotIntelligent | couple of days back i did dist-upgrade from 9.10 to 10.4 now still have those old tray icons, thought they would be upgraded to the new one in lucid...can some one help me in this | 14:46 |
iksik | rob_p AND 9.10 ? :-) | 14:46 |
Anarchy7 | blablubb: I right clicked and I see wireless enabled ... also the wireless light is ON , on my computer | 14:46 |
Pici | rob_p: It was also bugged in 9.10: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2010-July/001117.html | 14:46 |
indus | koskos, http://www.ibiblio.org/g2swap/byteofpython/read/ | 14:47 |
blablubb | Tricks: Ok, I thought that lingray.uk was your domain. You shouldn't use existing toplevel domains like .com .uk. Use something like .mine or .internal (not .local) instead. | 14:47 |
Pici | koskos: The python help channel is #python | 14:47 |
indus | koskos, if the module is not in your namespace, it wont import for custom modules | 14:47 |
Tricks | blablubb, ok no worries | 14:47 |
indus | koskos, there is no standard module called libhash | 14:47 |
koskos | md5 | 14:48 |
koskos | ? | 14:48 |
koskos | maybe | 14:48 |
koskos | sha this name ? | 14:48 |
Anarchy7 | blablubb: yes the wireless is still active ... | 14:48 |
Pici | koskos, indus: This isn't on-topic for this channel. #python would be the best place to continue this conversation. | 14:48 |
koskos | i tryied to install this to hash brother but i dont get any | 14:48 |
koskos | python | 14:49 |
blablubb | Anarchy7: Try iwlist scan on the console. Did you do any updates before the reboot? | 14:49 |
indus | Pici, ya i told him | 14:49 |
barfster | sha1 and md5 are two different methods to do the same type of hash, the two hashes however are not the same | 14:49 |
Anarchy7 | I just installed wubi 5 mins ago | 14:49 |
Anarchy7 | fresh ... | 14:49 |
rystraum | koskos: I think you should learn python first. | 14:49 |
koskos | yes this my dream | 14:50 |
koskos | :) | 14:50 |
koskos | learning learning untel i die | 14:50 |
koskos | is good | 14:50 |
indus | koskos, subscribe to python tutor mailing list , its very good | 14:50 |
indus | koskos, start from www.python.org | 14:50 |
om26er | how can I remove the ubuntu logo in top panel? | 14:50 |
koskos | bad english:( | 14:50 |
Anarchy7 | done | 14:50 |
koskos | its my big problem | 14:50 |
hotfloppy | guys, is GTK+ available from Ubuntu repo ? i tried 'apt-cache search gtk+ | grep gtk+' but no luck.. | 14:50 |
Dr_Willis | om26er: You mean the logo on the appklications menu? | 14:50 |
Misterio | om26er: why would you want do it? | 14:51 |
azurephalanges | Just a quick question. Can I use a SD card instead of a USB pendrive in order to trial run Ubuntu? | 14:51 |
om26er | Dr_Willis, yes | 14:51 |
Anarchy7 | Interface doesnt sipport scanning | 14:51 |
koskos | i learn english frist | 14:51 |
indus | hotfloppy, its installed default and is an essential package i believe | 14:51 |
rob_p | Pici: All patched now! | 14:51 |
koskos | then python | 14:51 |
Dr_Willis | azurephalanges: not all machines can boot from SD card. | 14:51 |
koskos | perl | 14:51 |
blablubb | Anarchy7: So you saw the wireless networks on Windows? | 14:51 |
om26er | Misterio, cuz top panel dont resize to 22px | 14:51 |
koskos | frist bash | 14:51 |
azurephalanges | Netbook I'm looking at, basicallu | 14:51 |
indus | info !GTK-2.0 | 14:51 |
koskos | then python then perl | 14:51 |
rob_p | iksik: Yeah, the latest updates fixes the vuln. | 14:51 |
Misterio | om26er: that logo is gnome's theme logo | 14:51 |
azurephalanges | and my USB pendrive is deader than a dodo | 14:51 |
erUSUL | !info libgtk2.0 | 14:51 |
ubottu | Package libgtk2.0 does not exist in lucid | 14:51 |
Anarchy7 | blablubb: no on ubuntu just 5 mins ago on my first boot, I even tried to connect to one of them | 14:51 |
Dr_Willis | om26er: ubuntu-tweak tool can let you change it. not sure about deleting it.. and there is some quirk where changeing it only works with some themes. | 14:51 |
azurephalanges | ergo, SD card option | 14:51 |
erUSUL | !info libgtk2.0-0 | 14:51 |
ubottu | libgtk2.0-0 (source: gtk+2.0): The GTK+ graphical user interface library. In component main, is optional. Version 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 (lucid), package size 2455 kB, installed size 5944 kB | 14:51 |
koskos | is that good thinking | 14:51 |
erUSUL | !info libgtk2.0-0-dev | 14:52 |
ubottu | Package libgtk2.0-0-dev does not exist in lucid | 14:52 |
indus | WHY is it optional i think | 14:52 |
erUSUL | !info libgtk2.0-dev | 14:52 |
ubottu | libgtk2.0-dev (source: gtk+2.0): Development files for the GTK+ library. In component main, is optional. Version 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 (lucid), package size 3679 kB, installed size 14920 kB | 14:52 |
indus | isnt gtk required | 14:52 |
rww | indus: no | 14:52 |
blablubb | Anarchy7: Ok, did you run any upgrades that caused the reboot? I'm trying to figure out if an update could have broken the wireless. | 14:52 |
indus | hmm i thought that draws all the windows | 14:52 |
iksik | rob_p just downloading it now ;] | 14:52 |
indus | in laymans terms | 14:52 |
om26er | Dr_Willis, I could try using a smaller icon with ubuntu-teak maybe that will work | 14:52 |
rww | indus: Windows aren't required to boot the OS. | 14:52 |
dubey | hello | 14:52 |
indus | rww, i mean after desktop | 14:53 |
Dr_Willis | om26er: make an icon thats the same color as the panel :) | 14:53 |
io | !hi | dubey | 14:53 |
ubottu | dubey: 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! | 14:53 |
rww | indus: http://people.canonical.com/~cjwatson/ubuntu-policy/policy.html/ch-archive.html#s-priorities | 14:53 |
rob_p | iksik: It was an eye opener to see it first-hand! :-) | 14:53 |
rystraum | rww: I think indus meant drawing windows.. as in.. the application space. | 14:53 |
rww | indus: the graphical desktop is also not required | 14:53 |
om26er | Dr_Willis, u-tweak says the icon should be 24x24 :( | 14:53 |
rww | rystraum: I know what he meant. He's confused about package priorities. | 14:53 |
indus | rystraum, you understood me correct :) | 14:53 |
Anarchy7 | blablubb: I just clicked edit connections and then it asked me something is trying to acces ... I said allow only once and then it kept me asking forever, I said deny, closed it a little bit difficult after a few times deny deny deny ... and then the networks werent there after the reboot | 14:54 |
Dr_Willis | om26er: so? make a blank 24x24 icon. :) | 14:54 |
hotfloppy | erUSUL , rww: so, the package name is libgtk2.0-0 or libgtk2.0-dev ? which one should i get to implement GUI in my program ? | 14:54 |
vaibhav | Ranjan: Thanks a lot man.... | 14:54 |
dubey | i am using ubuntu 10.04, when i tried to update my os e.g # sudo apt-get update i am getting GPG error and some error saying that Failed to fetch http://x.x.x.x | 14:54 |
Dr_Willis | om26er: make it totally transparent. :) | 14:54 |
Anarchy7 | now I clicked always allow but nothing changed ... | 14:54 |
indus | rww, you mean on the desktop install, its not mandatory? | 14:54 |
rww | indus: Package priorities have nothing to do with whether something is mandatory for the desktop install | 14:54 |
erUSUL | hotfloppy: you need the -dev package to be able to program agains the library ( it has the header files and all the stuff ) | 14:54 |
rww | indus: consider actually reading the link I gave you | 14:54 |
=== gb_ is now known as GaMeBoY |
hotfloppy | erUSUL: thanks :) | 14:55 |
datacrusher | is there a straight forward way to capture dv video via firewire on ubuntu? | 14:55 |
dubey | what is the problem | 14:55 |
indus | rww, who is talking about package priorities | 14:55 |
datacrusher | anyone had success doing that? | 14:55 |
erUSUL | hotfloppy: if you are using C. if you use some other language you need the correct bindings | 14:55 |
rww | indus: you, when you expressed surprise about ubottu saying "is optional" | 14:55 |
blablubb | Anarchy7: That was the password manager that saves the wireless passwords. You should "always allow" the network manager to access the password manager. | 14:56 |
rystraum | Anyone knows how I can turn off the IRC status changes (entering, leaving, etc.)? It | 14:56 |
om26er | !resetpanel | 14:56 |
ubottu | To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 14:56 |
barfster | Installing new machine now. | 14:56 |
indus | rww, ah yes , i read the link , but optional is meant in a different sense | 14:56 |
rww | indus: that's what the bot means; it has optional package priority | 14:56 |
Dr_Willis | rystraum: totally depends on your irc client | 14:56 |
erUSUL | rystraum: depneds on the irc client | 14:56 |
blablubb | Anarchy7: Let me have a look how to restore that. | 14:56 |
ubnuntu_giant | Hello. Still having trouble with my graphics card. I have every driver under the sun compatible with my graphics card installed. When I go into System -> Administration -> Hadrware Drivers and click "Activate," the application downloads and then just hangs. Anyone else having this problem? | 14:56 |
dubey | anyone ? | 14:56 |
rystraum | ... Stupid ENTER key. I was supposed to type I'm using Pidgin as my IRC client. | 14:56 |
rww | indus: not when ubottu says it in !info listings, it doesn't | 14:56 |
hotfloppy | erUSUL: if i'm using, lets say code::block, do i need to do the binding manually ? | 14:57 |
indus | rww, if you read my comment , i said its essential from a desktop perspective, not what a package priority means | 14:57 |
tuliohm | hi people, i'm configuring my gmail with evolution client, but i can't set it up to only delete mails from the server if i delete them locally. | 14:57 |
erUSUL | hotfloppy: code::block is for c++ isn't it ? and it uses wxwindows not gtk+ ? | 14:57 |
rww | indus: You asked why libgtk+ is optional. The only message that used the term "optional" before you was ubottu. I was explaining why ubottu said it was optional. | 14:58 |
Damien123 | Enter text here... | 14:58 |
Damien123 | anyone good at ubuntu | 14:58 |

Damien123 | is there anyone here that can help me fix my mic on ubuntu it works on xp, i have capture turned up i can hear the mic but it wont record | 14:59 |
hotfloppy | erUSUL: nope.. got an error about gtk.h or something like that when compiling.. | 15:00 |
ubnuntu_giant | Alright, I do get an error with the Hardware Drivers install. I looked at the log file and this error keeps popping up: | 15:00 |
ubnuntu_giant | WARNING: modinfo for module fglrx failed: ERROR: modinfo: could not find module fglrx | 15:00 |
indus | rww, but my question is, on a desktop install gtk will be required or not | 15:00 |
rystraum | Damien: When you say you have capture turned up and you can hear it, is that on Ubuntu? | 15:00 |
usr13 | Damien123: What application are you using to record? | 15:00 |
erUSUL | hotfloppy: install the mentioned libgtk2.0-dev | 15:00 |
ubnuntu_giant | fglrx is another module at some spots. | 15:00 |
usr13 | Damien123: Audacity? | 15:00 |

usr13 | Damien123: What application are you using to record? | 15:01 |
indus | ActionParsnip, hi , but also gtg so bye, good day | 15:01 |
rystraum | indus, rww: I think you're talking about the term optional in two different context (rww in package management and indus in desktop) and thus miscommunicated. | 15:01 |
Damien123 | audicity is a sound recorder, and the orgi | 15:01 |
usr13 | Damien123: Try Audacity | 15:01 |
Damien123 | yes | 15:01 |
indus | rystraum, yes, but rww wants me to be correct :) | 15:02 |
Damien123 | no levels | 15:02 |

indus | roo0t, dont use it, its old , unsupported, but ubuntu has a ppa | 15:03 |

indus | bye | 15:05 |
usr13 | Damien123: And audacity will not record from mic? Is it just that mic is muted or turned down to low? | 15:05 |
blablubb | Tricks: You don't need a full stop. If there isn't one, bind will add what is after "ORIGIN" to the hostname. | 15:05 |
Damien123 | got all set right | 15:06 |
Anarchy7 | weird I switched to windows and no networks here as well :S | 15:06 |
Damien123 | had to mute "line" | 15:06 |
Damien123 | but, i tried it low too | 15:06 |
ActionParsnip | dubey: http://pastebin.com/itqCvevU | 15:06 |
Damien123 | even tried mic boost scripts or something | 15:06 |
usr13 | Damien123: Well, I dont know then. There may be a problem with your implementation of audacity | 15:06 |
Damien123 | from sypnatic | 15:07 |
Damien123 | well can i tell what my pc is without opening it | 15:07 |
Anarchy7 | blablubb: I dont understand how will this help ? I cant see them on windows as well now ... | 15:07 |
bihari | so no one is using gyachi | 15:07 |
=== joerg is now known as Guest4822 |
rystraum | Anarchy7: Hardware problem? | 15:08 |
blablubb | Anarchy7: You're right - if you don't even see the wireless networks on windows anymore, than the problem is not related to the password manager. | 15:08 |
bihari | i think ubuntu have to take certain step for this problem coz large no of user using yahoo clint for chating | 15:08 |
Anarchy7 | it was working 5 mins ago ... | 15:08 |
arunkumar413 | cannot connect to internet using my mobile. | 15:08 |

Damien123 | im not sure if it needs realtek | 15:08 |
barfster | Is there a how-to on how to make a bootable linux system in the command line without all those fancy tools? | 15:08 |

Damien123 | one person on earth could explain, i can use blender ftw, looks better than quake but more like runescape but guess what | 15:10 |
Damien123 | no sound.. | 15:10 |
martian | bihari: isn't there an 'offcial' yahoo messenger for linux that supports it? | 15:10 |
usr13 | barfster: Ctrl-Alt-F6 | 15:10 |
ActionParsnip | barfster: use the minimal cd and only install the minimal system, you can build from there | 15:10 |
=== jcdury is now known as dury |
Damien123 | from the mic anyway | 15:10 |
rystraum | usr13: That's not particularly helpful. | 15:10 |
dubey | ActionParsnip : getting GPG error | 15:10 |
Tricks | blablubb, shouldn't there be a DNS entry so any requests made to lingray.internal goes to my internal DNS server | 15:10 |
slav | hello :) | 15:10 |
blablubb | Tricks: In the named.conf (or somethimes named.conf.local) you tell Bind that it is reponsible for lingray.internal and where to find the zone file. There should be a paragraph starting with "zone "lingary.internal" in {" | 15:10 |
bihari | yes there is no one which supports voice chat in rooms | 15:11 |
ActionParsnip | dubey: ok whats the error? | 15:11 |
usr13 | rystraum: What exactly are you wanting to do? | 15:11 |
barfster | ActionParsnip: Now we are talking :-) | 15:11 |
usr13 | rystraum: You said you wanted just command line? Right? | 15:11 |
Tricks | blablubb, ah so that's how bind knows | 15:11 |
barfster | ActionParsnip: You are suggesting I should use the MiniCD and install on the memory stick? | 15:11 |
ActionParsnip | barfster: if you want to go even lower, use gentoo | 15:11 |
dubey | ActionParsnip : http://pastebin.com/spam.php?i=6ZDixrsX | 15:12 |
rystraum | usr13: barfster wants to make a bootable external device via CLI. | 15:12 |
barfster | And the memory stick should then be bootable from anywhere? | 15:12 |
blablubb | Tricks: Yes, the clients know by asking their nameserver. Which in this case should be the same machine where your bind is running on. | 15:12 |
usr13 | rystraum: Ok, sorry. I missunderstood. | 15:12 |
ActionParsnip | barfster: theres a minimal iso (12mb) you can install and get just a boot loader, kernel and some modules with a few commands | 15:12 |

barfster | ActionParsnip: That is my regular install CD :-) So that one I know. | 15:13 |
