| soreau | econdudeawesome: What kind of gpu are you going to have? | 00:00 |

| slidinghorn | econdudeawesome, you could go without a DE and just use a window manager instead (fluxbox, icewm, enlightenment, etc) -- that'd cut the weight down | 00:00 |
| Evolution-X | thanks | 00:00 |
| nkei0 | ^peanut^: I will brb as well, I'm going to double check that I haven't screwed anything up recently and boot into my actual system. | 00:00 |
| hopsa | Evolution-X: Oh, you must mean leave the channel ? | 00:00 |
| gurudrew | My terminal window is ridiculously transparent for no reason, in the profile settings I've turned transparency off but the window border and everything is semi-transparent. Is there some keyboard shortcut I may have hit to toggle opacity through compiz or something? | 00:01 |
| econdudeawesome | slidinghorn that's a good point--I'll look into it. How difficult is that to work in (I'm not total Linux newb, 2 years now, but still a lot I run up against I don't know) | 00:01 |
| soreau | gurudrew: Try Alt+Scroll up | 00:01 |
| gurudrew | scroll up? | 00:01 |
| gurudrew | mousewheel? | 00:01 |
| ftlangley | hi folks I want to intall a GUI on my Ubuntu server, but first I need help with configureing for a static IP | 00:01 |
| hiexpo | new distro gnsacktrack out gonna try it here in a bit > is bt but gnome | 00:02 |
| econdudeawesome | soreau GPU==graphic processing unit? If I interpreted that right, I'm super cheap and just have some junky HP and Dell computers I'm either going to cluster eventually or run a LAMP | 00:02 |
| soreau | econdudeawesome: You can use compiz as a standalone wm just the same | 00:02 |
| econdudeawesome | soreau so to answer your question, just onboard | 00:02 |
| dibs | thune3: when I run update manager I get the partial upgrade warning and I apparently have 2 packages selected but the list is empty, any idea on why this might be? | 00:02 |
| soreau | econdudeawesome: so probably intel? | 00:02 |
| slidinghorn | econdudeawesome, not very...it doesn't have the nice panels that you'd be used to with XFCE/LXDE or the extra software (games, etc), but if you're just using it for a LAMP then you should have no worries | 00:02 |
| annaimkonki | hi.. anyone successful on streaming on justin.tv? | 00:02 |
| annaimkonki | broadcast on justin.tv | 00:02 |
| hopsa | Evolution-X: Nw, rock and roll! | 00:02 |
| Evolution-X | what u mean | 00:02 |
| Evolution-X | leave tha channel | 00:03 |
| econdudeawesome | soreau Compiz works as a windows manager, (probably intel) does that mean I don't have Nautilus? | 00:03 |
| ed4151 | Hi all, i installed ubuntu inside windows. But i think the grub or loader is not working | 00:03 |
| econdudeawesome | soreau or some other filemanager? | 00:03 |
| OldSmokey_ | <annaimkonki> i use element linux for that | 00:03 |
| Songer | help, i can access to lucid | 00:03 |
| Evolution-X | i think u have bootloader issues | 00:03 |
| annaimkonki | element linux? OldSmokey_ | 00:03 |

| Jordan_U | ed4151: What exactly happens when you try to boot Ubuntu? | 00:03 |
| OldSmokey_ | <annaimkonki> yes made to connect to tv it is ubuntu based | 00:03 |
| OldSmokey_ | <annaimkonki> but you dont have to connect to tv to use | 00:04 |
| Evolution-X | hopsa i read that page | 00:04 |
| econdudeawesome | slidinghorn so do I need to worry about RandR if I use only Openbox? | 00:04 |
| soreau | econdudeawesome: compiz is a window manager like openbox, metacity and xfwm4. You can only have one running at a given time. Nautilus is a file manager like Thunar | 00:04 |
| Evolution-X | talk about gstreame | 00:04 |
| Songer | monitor goes black , Jordan_U | 00:04 |
| econdudeawesome | soreau I see. I grok the difference now | 00:04 |

| ed4151 | Hi all, i installed ubuntu inside windows. But i think the grub or loader is not working | 00:05 |
| Evolution-X | use wine | 00:05 |
| slidinghorn | econdudeawesome, basically you'd take a minimal install and install what you want through the repositories -- I'm sure the other WMs would have something to deal with the RandR functions | 00:05 |
| econdudeawesome | slidinghorn most DEs/wm have some small program to allow for it, else you have to restart X every time | 00:05 |

| just_frame | I want to downgrade the xorg on my ubuntu 10.04 to 7.4 | 00:20 |
| Jordan_U | ^peanut^: If you use grub2's grub-mkrescue utility it will make a disk image that can be burned to a CD, dd'd to a USB drive (or any hard drive), or if it's small enough even booted from a floppy. | 00:20 |
| just_frame | I googled around for a good manual to downgrade xorg | 00:21 |
| algorithm | I'm trying to configure my apache installing to support ssl. Whenever I visit my site, by browser says "SSL Connection Error. Unable to make a secure connection to the server. This may be a problem with the server, or it may be requiring a client authentication certificate that you don't have.". I've tried different private keys and certificates. I even tried a key and certificate from my prior server (same domain name) wh | 00:21 |
| algorithm | ich I know works. If anyone has some suggestions, it would be most appreciated | 00:21 |
| just_frame | but coulden't find one, even after looking at the forums | 00:21 |
| massmc_ | I formatted a drive to XFS in disk utility, rebooted and now i dont have permission to open it.. why is this? | 00:21 |
| hiexpo | > downgrade no | 00:21 |
| Jordan_U | ^peanut^: You can even add EFI support in the same image if you want it. | 00:21 |
| ^peanut^ | Jordan_U: on nice. yeah, haven't played much with grub2 as of late. But, now I have some playing around to do. Ty. | 00:21 |
| Dr_Willis | massmc_: becauise you need to set the permissions/ownership of the filesystem to be read/writeable by the users in questiomn | 00:21 |
| ^peanut^ | Jordan_U: oh sweet =) | 00:21 |

| Garnasha | something that has been bothering me for a while: I've been told you can restart (almost) any part of Ubuntu without restarting the whole system, which should have the same effect as restarting the system | 00:36 |
| UberN00b | helloo | 00:37 |
| TheThing | ^peanut^, its strange, it'll repair after a reboot, but it seems after more use of applications it slowly becomes more corrupted, nasty leak somewhere | 00:37 |
| Jordan_U | barry_: Ok, what is the output of "lsmod | grep ath"? (if it's more than a few lines use pastebin) | 00:37 |
| Garnasha | my wlan has been acting up, so I wonder, how do I restart wlan without restarting Ubuntu as a whole? | 00:37 |
| ^peanut^ | TheThing: could very well be memory | 00:37 |
| TheThing | Garnasha, ifconfig wlan up;ifconfig wlan down | 00:38 |
| barry_ | Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/kTFLzce9 | 00:38 |
| ^peanut^ | Garnasha: right click on the NetworkManager app next to your clock or to the left of it and choose disable networking or disable wireless, then do the same thing and enable it. | 00:38 |
| TheThing | Garnasha, sorry, flip those, first down then up | 00:38 |
| Jordan_U | TheThing: Reboot holding shift and try memtest, let it run for about an hour if you want to be thorough. | 00:39 |
| Garnasha | ^peanut^, I tried that way, doesn't work | 00:39 |
| Jordan_U | TheThing: That will test if you have bad RAM | 00:39 |
| Garnasha | TheThing, thanks, I'll try that next time it goes down | 00:39 |
| ^peanut^ | Garnasha: did you install the wireless "recommened" drivers for your card from the hardware drivers app ? | 00:40 |
| infid | how do you type: <Multi_key> <U2208> <U0338> ? my compose-key is 'right-alt' but i dont know how to type U2208 | 00:40 |
| Jordan_U | barry_: Ok, that looks good. Can you connect to wireless? | 00:40 |
| phaedra | Garnasha, you can also try 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart' in terminal | 00:40 |
| TheThing | Jordan_U, Shit, will do, also, do you know how to schedule a filesystem check on ubuntu, maybe corruption in the language packs | 00:40 |
| Seeker` | TheThing: Please watch your langauge | 00:40 |
| TheThing | Sedated, my b | 00:40 |
| Jordan_U | TheThing: "sudo touch /forcefsck" then reboot and fsck will be run at next boot. | 00:41 |
| Garnasha | ^peanut^, hmm, I think I actually forgot to configure drivers... Stupid me. And networking restart also has no effect while restarting the system does | 00:41 |
| === _woot is now known as woot | ||

| TheThing | Thank you guys for your help, gonna hop to it | 00:41 |
| barry_ | Jordan_U: no. "no wireless networks found" :( | 00:42 |
| ^peanut^ | Garnasha: yea when you restart the system the drive modules (that's what they are called, when booting the modules are loaded into the kernel during boot). | 00:42 |
| Garnasha | ^peanut^, anyway, I'll use the drivers app now | 00:42 |
| Jordan_U | barry_: Try "sudo modprobe ath9k" | 00:42 |
| ^peanut^ | Garnasha: try it.... reboot, and hopefully all will be good | 00:42 |
| barry_ | Jordan_U: trying. | 00:42 |
| Garnasha | ^peanut^, ah. And is there a way to reload those modules individually? | 00:42 |
| barry_ | Jordan_U: same :( I am using wicd instead of network manager, if that makes a difference | 00:43 |

| serro | how to autostart apache2 on startup ? | 00:45 |
| ^peanut^ | Garnasha: well, yes. you can see from a terminal what drivers/modules are running with lsmod | more or just lsmod. Though you need to know the driver name for your card. then you can use sudo rmmod module name to remove it from running, then modprobe module name to reload or restart the driver | 00:45 |
| Jordan_U | barry_: Can you try "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up"? | 00:45 |
| Garnasha | ^peanut^, Hardware drivers app just says "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system" and shows an empty list under an empty textfield | 00:46 |
| ^peanut^ | Garnasha: hmm is this system conencted to the net? are you currently on the same system? | 00:47 |
| ^peanut^ | garnasha: and when I say connected, I mean via hard wire. | 00:47 |
| barry_ | Jordan_U: the command seemed to go through, but still no wireless | 00:47 |

| barry_ | Jordan_U: difference --> "wlan0 No scan results" | 00:48 |

| Oer | transom324, i still have 2.0.5, maybe you can get it tru synaptics ? name = software-center | 00:49 |
| Garnasha | ^peanut^, system meaning laptop? The laptop having problems is the one I'm using to connect to irc atm, and it's on wlan only, though I have had it on a wired connection before | 00:49 |
| Garnasha | ^peanut^, and the wired connection never failed | 00:50 |
| transom324 | Oer: thanks ill give it a shot | 00:50 |
| ^peanut^ | garnasha: and this is a new install. Hmm... either your card isn't support and that's why it's not listed in the hardware list | 00:50 |
| ^peanut^ | Garnasha: strange | 00:50 |
| Garnasha | ^peanut^, not really a new install | 00:50 |

| elias_ | hey where can i download new emerald themes? | 00:57 |
| mun | timClicks, can unetbootin do it? | 00:57 |
| Garnasha | ^peanut^, because atm, it's wrapping in a rather inconvenient manner | 00:58 |
| timClicks | mun sure | 00:58 |
| ^peanut^ | Garnasha: if you use the pipe | and then grep (pick out a keyword or pharse or regex) then the output should be alot smaller | 00:58 |
| Jordan_U | Garnasha: lspci | less | 00:58 |

| barry_ | :I | 01:14 |
| nkei0 | ^peanut^: The fsck finished, i have 113 bad sectors, what do i do now? | 01:14 |
| ^peanut^ | trojan_spike: do you have another instance of synaptic running? | 01:14 |
| trojan_spike | nope | 01:15 |
| CHeesEBloW | i sware i just heard one of my HDD's smack the side of the case. what utilities can i run against my hdd's to check them out? | 01:15 |
| dominicdinada | trojan_spike: OR ubuntu software center/ or anyother installer/uninstaller | 01:15 |
| ^peanut^ | nkei0: fix them =), fsck -a should auto-repair the bad blocks | 01:16 |
| trojan_spike | none,, no update manager or software installer | 01:16 |
| Oer | transom324, i do not see the update 2,0.6 so i guess they are working on it. | 01:16 |
| ^peanut^ | nkei0: or run fsck -a with the -y options as well as -a | 01:16 |
| dominicdinada | trojan_spike: you could always reboot and try again :/ | 01:16 |
| Jordan_U | barry_: Try installing these packages then reboot: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.35-rc5-maverick/linux-headers-2.6.35-020635rc5_2.6.35-020635rc5_all.deb , http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.35-rc5-maverick/linux-headers-2.6.35-020635rc5-generic_2.6.35-020635rc5_i386.deb , http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.35-rc5-maverick/linux-image-2.6.35-020635rc5-generic_2.6.35-020635rc5_i | 01:16 |
| trojan_spike | yea,, was gona do a reboot.. just wanted to see what was said here first.. cheers | 01:17 |
| Jordan_U | CHeesEBloW: System > Administration > Disk Utility, check the SMART status. | 01:17 |
| fullycapable | wudd up | 01:17 |
| ^peanut^ | trojan_spike: what happens if you run sudo apt-get update or sudo apt-get install "package-name" from a terminal | 01:17 |
| transom324 | Oer: I check the thread you sent. i think i might wait for the fix. | 01:17 |

| trojan_spike | 1 sec | 01:18 |
| ^peanut^ | make sure to close the gui package manager first =) | 01:18 |
| Plimmer | If fsck keeps starting when I reboot my server, does that mean I have a faulty disk drive or should I just let it run for as many times as it likes? | 01:18 |
| critt | noob anyone know the command line to create a Skype Launcher? | 01:18 |
| BigC | Can some one help me make a shell script that installs all the software I want on a fresh install of ubuntu? | 01:19 |
| Oer | transom324, last post: re-install will do it. | 01:19 |
| trojan_spike | UPDATES OK | 01:19 |
| ^peanut^ | critt: if you know where the excutable is, right click on the top menu bar in a blank area, and choose add to panel, then choose custom app | 01:19 |
| logyati | hello guys! | 01:19 |

| Plimmer | BigC: You could just make a really long sudo apt-get install line. | 01:20 |
| Plimmer | BigC: or do you want to compile stuff aswell? | 01:20 |
| ^peanut^ | ok all, have a good nite.... =) | 01:20 |
| transom324 | Oer: should i accept the ubuntu-desktop removal too? | 01:20 |
| Jordan_U | barry_: That looks good :) Is that with the new kernel packages? | 01:20 |
| BigC | Plimmer, I just want to install stuff | 01:20 |
| Oer | transom324, no, just remove it in synaptic, and re-install again. | 01:21 |
| barry_ | Jordan_U: not the mainline RC5, but with 2.6.32-24-generic. Thanks for all your help! | 01:21 |
| critt | ^peanut^ I dont know where the executable is | 01:21 |
| Jordan_U | barry_: You're welcome. | 01:21 |
| trojan_spike | doesn't install updates tho,, gona reboot | 01:21 |
| barry_ | cheers all. | 01:21 |
| transom324 | Oer: i'll try again | 01:22 |

| critt | Unrelated question to skype. I installed 10.04 on my wifes Dell. Now her mouse keeps freezing. It's a USB mouse. If I connect another mouse to USB it starts working with the second mouse | 01:23 |
| noisewaterphd | use the other mouse | 01:24 |
| IdleOne | critt: same port? | 01:24 |
| atyz | Hey guys, I suppose this might be the wrong place to ask this, but what are your views on KDE vs Gnome? | 01:24 |
| critt | It freezes after a few min to | 01:24 |
| atyz | and why did you choose Gnome? | 01:24 |
| it | my lucid has the same problem | 01:24 |
| critt | No Diff port | 01:24 |
| IdleOne | atyz: #ubuntu-offtopic | 01:24 |
| noisewaterphd | get lots of mouses | 01:25 |
| atyz | IdleOne, thanks | 01:25 |
| Plimmer | BigC, I guess you could do a "sudo apt-get install thunderbird firefox gimp inkscape juk wine" and then add in the wget and configure later on in the script | 01:25 |
| it | i disconnect my usb mouse and go to touchpad | 01:25 |
| BigC | Plimmer, well let me add all my applications first, and then we'll work on the chrome daily ppa. OK? | 01:26 |
| it | when i reconnect my mouse, it works well. | 01:26 |
| Plimmer | BigC, sure | 01:26 |
| noisewaterphd | critt: seriously tho, are other usb devices having issues or just mice | 01:26 |
| critt | noisewaterphd Not sure just mouse so far | 01:27 |
| transom324 | Oer: still crashes | 01:27 |
| critt | noisewaterphd The Keyboard is USB and Is still working FIne | 01:29 |
| logyati | i used to make backups with the command "/opt/zimbra/bin/zmmailbox -z -m user@example.com getRestURL "//?fmt=tgz" > /backup/daily/accounts/user\@example.com.tgz". But i found out that if the account is set to "CLOSED", it doesnt work!it says "permission denied" on command line. Wha should i do? | 01:29 |

| noisewaterphd | critt: this is a shot in the dark, but try updating your bios | 01:30 |
| noisewaterphd | i seem to remember a dell/mouse/usb thing from a while back that was a dell bios issue | 01:31 |
| critt | Hmm Wouldnt the keyboard show problems too? | 01:32 |

| Benkinooby | hi. there are some howtos for ubuntu on how to use tor/privoxy for annonymous surfing (with firefox). is there a way/how-to how i can "turn on/off" tor/proxies/encrypted data transmission(e-mail, messengers,...) systemwide? or has it to be done for every program separated? | 01:36 |
| critt | Noisewaterphd yep I see it too. Thanks gonna go get it done b4 she kills me . Thanks!!! | 01:36 |
| adamkex | Benkinooby: yeah, torbutton exists for firefox | 01:37 |
| lucas_ | #Ubuntu-br | 01:37 |
| BigC | Plimmer, so I got most everything in there. now for the chrome daily ppa. | 01:37 |
| gartral | Benkinooby: set tor up as the primary proxy, and select what you want as global, direct internet, or tor | 01:38 |
| Benkinooby | gardar: this can be set in the privoxy config file? | 01:38 |
| * gardar slaps Benkinooby | 01:39 | |
| gartral | Benkinooby: no, System>Preferences>Network Proxy | 01:39 |
| Benkinooby | gardar: i'm on fluxbox, not using gnome. also gnome is doing nothing else than providing a nice gui for the config files. but now i know where to start. thx for the help | 01:40 |

| KwikkSilva | anyone got a sec to help me with a littel bridging prob? | 01:42 |
| KwikkSilva | My server has a wireless card, and i bridged it to another servers ethernet port | 01:42 |
| gardar | Benkinooby: youre always highlighting me but not gartral.... but anyways I use fluxbox too and I use TOR too... What I did is just to install proxy and then I use the foxyproxy plugin for firefox to turn tor on/off | 01:43 |
| KwikkSilva | and the other server got an ip of 10.42.43.11 | 01:43 |

| Benkinooby | gardar, for using tor/proxies with firefox there are enough how-tos and websites about it on the web. i was looking for more general information, concerning internet security for all relevant applications... something like "make your ubuntu 100% annonym&encrypted on the network". i found some ubuntu pages... but they are from 2005... now i gutt the right name ;) | 01:46 |

| gardar | Benkinooby: I see... Well TOR is really really slow most of the time.. If you want a single secure proxy (but not 3 proxies like tor uses) then I'd suggest you buy a VPS from some hosting company that offers offshore hosting, and point all your traffic to a ssh tunnel throught that vps | 01:50 |
| froschi | uh, well, i removed the partition containing /tmp, but removed it from /etc/fstab too... still the systen won't let me login... something about the 'power manager' and libgconf... what's that? | 01:50 |

| dyzilla | I always have to use the alsamixer to get sound on my laptop. | 01:51 |
| gardar | Benkinooby: in my option tor is only usable when you want to do some single task that requires high privay, like posting a comment on a website or such.. Browsing everything through tor will make you feel like youre using 56k again | 01:51 |
| Benkinooby | hmmm.. i like the tor site, where they get that nice link to "what tor does for you and what tor doesn't do"... boils it down to the facts... nice... although tor look a bit less powerfull/secure to me now... | 01:51 |
| dianna | who else is bored | 01:51 |

| Benkinooby | gardar, instead of ssh-ing is using vpn also fine? ... reading the differences fof vpn and ssh right now ... | 01:55 |
| bsmith0931 | i have some divx encoded mpeg4 avi files. can i just slap them on a dvd stick it in my divx compatible player, and play, or do i need to actually create a proper dvd vob file, and menu structure? | 01:56 |
| dyzilla | adamkex may I pm you? | 01:56 |
| gardar | yeah ssh and vpn are both fine... I just like ssh tunneling better since it's so simple... All you have to have installed on the server-side is a ssh server, while vpn is more complicated | 01:56 |
| Vooloo | tis flash plugin sucks, is there a better one? My sound is not working | 01:56 |
| ader10 | bsmith0931: if it's divx compatible, just "slap them on" | 01:56 |
| Vooloo | nonfree version tha tis | 01:56 |
| adamkex | dyzilla: sure, but i am no expert on the subject | 01:56 |
| bsmith0931 | k then | 01:56 |
| Vooloo | and you cant click stuff | 01:56 |
| gardar | Vooloo: are you using pulse? | 01:57 |
| Vooloo | gardar: not sure | 01:57 |
| Lizzard88 | what package do i need to watch encrypted dvds on my machine? | 01:57 |
| Vooloo | gardar: I guess so since it is running, but it does not say anywhere | 01:58 |
| Lizzard88 | (I am kind of a noob btw) | 01:58 |
| gardar | Vooloo: check http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup#FlashPlayer10 | 01:58 |
| ader10 | Lizzard88: libdvdcss2 | 01:58 |
| Lizzard88 | i tried that, but maybe im not typing in the right command | 01:59 |
| ader10 | also possibly libdvdread3, libdvdplay0, libdvdnav4 | 01:59 |
| ader10 | sudo apt-get install packagename | 01:59 |
| Lizzard88 | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/KBeJsKPK | 02:00 |
| ader10 | Lizzard88: * sudo apt-get install libdvdread4 | 02:00 |
| ader10 | then | 02:00 |
| ader10 | sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh | 02:00 |
| Vooloo | gardar: I think the problem may be that I changed my Wine configuraiton to use OSS instead of ALSA, so it seems it changed on the entire system? | 02:00 |
| gardar | Vooloo: and about clicking flash objects then I have the same problem... What works for me is to press the scroll wheel and then to click the left mouse button... I've heard about some people where that method doesn't work but holding down the right button and then pressing the left button works | 02:00 |
| ader10 | My question is about as ubuntu-specific as it gets and has recieved no attention in 15 minutes | 02:00 |
| Vooloo | gardar: cause wine sound works | 02:01 |
| ader10 | Lizzard88: Have you tried the last 2 commands I wrote yet? | 02:01 |
| Lizzard88 | yes | 02:02 |
| Lizzard88 | im going to test it out thanks | 02:02 |
| Lizzard88 | but what does that do, the /usr/share/doc command? | 02:02 |
| Benkinooby | gardar, gartral, thx for your help. sorry for the initial confusion | 02:02 |
| gardar | Vooloo: ah, I really don't like OSS... If I remember correctly then OSS prevents sounds from everything else when some application uses oss... while with alsa, many applications can play sound at the same time | 02:02 |
| ader10 | Lizzard88: /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4 is the folder and install-css.sh is the script | 02:03 |
| gardar | Benkinooby: no problemo, hope you figure out a way to be safe that fits you :) | 02:03 |
| Vooloo | gardar: gah ok... maybe thats why | 02:03 |

| Lizzard88 | so, i down need to download it correct? its already something on my comp | 02:03 |
| Lizzard88 | *dont need | 02:03 |
| ader10 | Lizzard88: It is already on your computer | 02:04 |
| Lizzard88 | the reason i ask, is because i have a computer that is unable to connect to the internet | 02:04 |
| Benkinooby | gardar, i have a network at hand to wich i can connect via vpn or ssh... whatever i like... | 02:04 |
| gardar | Vooloo: so try closing all applications that use OSS, or restarting oss... or if none of that works, try a system reboot | 02:04 |
| Lizzard88 | and I want to get it to play Dvds | 02:04 |
| Vooloo | gardar: I changed back to alsa in wine and it works... :( but alsa really sucks BAD in wine | 02:04 |
| gardar | Benkinooby: sounds good, as long as you trust the network youre connecting to | 02:04 |
| ader10 | Lizzard88: Ah, well you can only install the libdvdread4 package when you're connected to the internet | 02:06 |
| ader10 | Lizzard88: and you only get the script once you've installed libdvdread4 | 02:06 |
| Lizzard88 | Interesting | 02:06 |

| slimjimflim | thune3: it's something about creating a separate file in /etc/modprobe.d for each device or something | 02:15 |
| === egildon is now known as xaegis | ||
| ihernandez | but as everyone get's in with a NeatX Session i need to avoid people from shutting down the system | 02:16 |
| === MK|BNC is now known as MK-BB | ||
| ihernandez | so... what's the best way to configure the power icon menu ? | 02:16 |
| [thor] | ihernandez: you can run GnomeDo and bring up the shutdown dialog by typing "Shutdown" | 02:16 |
| thune3 | slimjimflim: the modprobe.d format allows different packages to add and remove relevant files without colliding on a singl efile | 02:16 |
| [thor] | (super-space to activate GnomeDo by default, i think ) | 02:17 |
| [thor] | so logging off is super-space shutdown | 02:17 |
| slimjimflim | thune3: i found the answer | 02:17 |
| j800r | so no one can help at all? :\ | 02:17 |
| ihernandez | [thor], thanks. i actually want to hide the shutdown menu from power icon on lucid | 02:17 |
| slimjimflim | thune3: fyi: http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Ubuntu/2006-03/msg02354.html | 02:17 |
| ihernandez | so users don't shut down the system by mistake | 02:18 |
| [thor] | ihernandez: you can remove it by right-clicking | 02:18 |
| meatbun | how to check which is my active partition? | 02:18 |
| ihernandez | mmmg | 02:19 |
| ihernandez | hm | 02:19 |
| ihernandez | [thor], well... no. actually it does just do the action | 02:19 |
| ader10 | I can't install Ubu Server from a USB flash drive. I get a notification saying that the CD-ROM can't be detected (even with "--cdrom-detect/try-usb=true") Please help me install it from the USB flash drive. | 02:19 |
| [thor] | ihernandez: i suggest some access to terminal or the aforementioned gnomedo afterward, or you will have to add the button back to the panel when you want to logoff/reboot/etc | 02:19 |
| thune3 | slimjimflim: that's four years ago, and "man modprobe.d" or "man modprobe.conf" seems to indicate .conf extension is required. | 02:19 |
| ihernandez | [thor], oh... as far as common users can't see the optiosn on the Power Icon button , i'm fine. | 02:20 |
| ihernandez | but i will do a little more research | 02:20 |
| cyc | hola | 02:22 |
| dianna | hola | 02:22 |
| cyc | mmm | 02:22 |
| Lizzard88 | ader10: i used a flashdrive | 02:22 |
| [thor] | ihernandez: i've just removed the icon, and added it again, replaced it with "Logoff", removed that, and then replaced with "User Switcher" | 02:23 |
| ader10 | I'm installing the server edition, though | 02:23 |
| cyc | una chica entre tantos hombre | 02:23 |
| Lizzard88 | but im told i dont have permission to move it from the pendrive | 02:23 |
| ader10 | oh, you're talking about your question : | 02:23 |
| dianna | si | 02:23 |
| Lizzard88 | yeah | 02:23 |
| Lizzard88 | whoops | 02:23 |
| ader10 | :P | 02:23 |
| cyc | y de donde eres | 02:23 |
| cyc | si se puede saver | 02:23 |
| [thor] | ihernandez: you are probably only a couple steps away from awesomesauce | 02:23 |
| ihernandez | [thor], i see. i still want the indicator-session but i think there should be some gconf option | 02:23 |

| ariefbayu | Hi there, I've windows partition (vfat/fat32). It work previously (read/write access). However, in recent days (starting yesterday, maybe. I didn't test it earlier. I can't write to it. I lookup via mount and found this entry: (/dev/sda10 on /media/SHARED7 type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,flush)) Is there a way to make my partition read/write again? | 02:23 |
| ader10 | Lizzard88: I suppose the easiest way around that is to run nautilus as super user (alt-f2, then type gksudo nautilus) | 02:24 |
| ader10 | Lizzard88: then use the window that pops up to copy files | 02:24 |
| cyc | diana no me dejes solo entre tantos ingleses | 02:24 |
| cyc | jejej | 02:24 |
| [thor] | ihernandez: the "Indicator Applet" that shows the envelope by default is what handles the indicator popups, if i am not mistaken | 02:25 |

| ubuntu_ | Hi, is there anyway to get Ubuntu 8.10 live cd reading EXT 4? | 02:25 |
| [thor] | ihernandez: where you access "Chat, Broadcast, etc" (please correct me if i am wrong, channel gurus) | 02:25 |

| williamchan_ | im using gnuplot w/ splot -- any ideas why only bitmap (png/gif) actually outputs my graph .. while anything like vector (latex/svg) just gives me the axis and no points? | 02:26 |
| Lizzard88 | that worked | 02:27 |
| Lizzard88 | but i think i have a different problem now :( | 02:27 |
| === carlos is now known as Guest82801 | ||
| ihernandez | [thor], yep. and on the rightmost upper corner you have a "Power Icon" on Lucid. That one has actions like Lock Screen, Logout, Suspend, Restart, Shut Down | 02:27 |
| ader10 | Aw | 02:27 |
| dianna | aw | 02:27 |
| guest_ | list | 02:27 |
| Lizzard88 | i copied something called a "shell script" its only 10 bytes | 02:27 |
| [thor] | ihernandez: yeah that can be removed, or replaced with "logoff" | 02:28 |
| Lizzard88 | so it seems that i didnt get the package | 02:28 |
| ihernandez | [thor], i need my users to be able to logout, but i wanna avoid them clicking restart. but, the solutions is: sudo gconf-editor | 02:28 |
| pooky | can anyone recommend a good graphical ldap front end? | 02:28 |
| === ubuntu_ is now known as TM000000000000 | ||
| TM000000000000 | How do i update a live cd? | 02:28 |
| ihernandez | [thor], then you go to apps/indicator-session | 02:28 |
| ihernandez | [thor], and there you have 2 options for that. and you put them as mandatory and can keep the cool icon without givin users a knife to hurt themselves :) | 02:29 |
| whae | hey where all the shout cast from VLC gone? | 02:29 |
| [thor] | hehe | 02:29 |
| guest_ | quit | 02:30 |
| [thor] | ihernandez: the Logoff panel app is the opening door icon | 02:30 |
| === Sup|Lobby is now known as MePHiSTo1 | ||
| thune3 | ariefbayu: maybe need to run fsck on filesystem. You might check dmesg or /var/log/syslog for sda10 and look for any error messages. | 02:30 |
| === MePHiSTo1 is now known as Sup|Lobby | ||
| === Sup|Lobby is now known as MePHiSTo1 | ||
| ihernandez | [thor], yep. but it's disgusting. the Poweb Icon makes people really think that there is some reason that we changed their widnows PC for a bunch of diskless nettops connecting to a NeatX ubuntu server | 02:31 |
| === MePHiSTo1 is now known as Guest17833 | ||
| ariefbayu | thune3: Ah, that's explained. few days ago my win partition asked for fsck but I skip. Thanks. I'll try that. | 02:31 |

| [thor] | ihernandez: the illusion of control, i gotcha | 02:31 |
| econdudeawesome | (with openbox) | 02:31 |
| ihernandez | [thor], each little point adds up against the natural pain that changes give to people :) | 02:31 |
| whae | hey where all the shout cast from VLC gone? | 02:32 |
| ihernandez | [thor], yep. if you ever have to do that install all the kde and gnome board games. on an office they are a key feature ;) | 02:32 |

| DrPoO | Onionz, what package did u use? | 02:50 |
| gartral | !sudo | CkhiKuzad | 02:50 |
| ubottu | CkhiKuzad: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli ) . Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 02:50 |

| bigbrad | ok | 02:52 |
| NotEther | hey guys | 02:52 |
| Onionz | well you can use the default network manager but it's better to use network-manager-openvpn | 02:52 |
| rolandpish | Hi, looking for a light desktop I installed xubuntu but I felt it a little bit slow. Does a ubuntu command only + xfce would run faster? | 02:52 |
| whae | bigbrad: whats your question? | 02:52 |
| NotEther | I have win7/ubu install and i want to install debian also | 02:52 |
| NotEther | on a netbook | 02:52 |
| cheri703 | so I was asking about some audio issues earlier, I've made a wee bit of progress: it appears that the usb audio device appears in gnome-device manager, but it does NOT show up in the sound preferences as a device. any suggestions? | 02:52 |
| Onionz | I am trying to run a blu-ray movie in mplayer but about a minute into the movie it crashes. what could be causing this? | 02:53 |
| NotEther | can Ijust install as usual and it will add to grub? | 02:53 |
| NFischer | with wich parameter do i have to execute mplayer in order to realtime-brightnes-adjustments (keys 3-4) have an effect (i know there is one, but i forgot it and i just cant find it in the man)??? | 02:53 |
| CkhiKuzad | NotEther: if you have windows, i will find the link to a program to netinstall debian. its how i installed debian on my system | 02:53 |
| bigbrad | i have my phone rooted and havnt done anything with it can anyone help install a rom or a new theme please? still learning | 02:53 |
| NotEther | I have net install iso | 02:53 |
| NotEther | was going to usb boot it | 02:53 |
| cheri703 | bigbrad, what kind of phone? android? | 02:53 |
| bigbrad | ya | 02:54 |
| whae | bigbrad: phone? | 02:54 |
| NotEther | 505-netinst | 02:54 |
| cheri703 | try #androidforums (I think) | 02:54 |
| bigbrad | i have a droid | 02:54 |
| NotEther | CkhiKuzad, if I run net install iso from usb, will it tri-boot | 02:54 |
| NotEther | just by following "prompts" | 02:54 |
| meatbun | how to check which is my active partition? | 02:55 |
| cheri703 | anyone know why a usb audio device would be recognized by device manager but not sound preferences? | 02:55 |
| Jordan_U | meatbun: Define "active". | 02:55 |
| meatbun | bootable. Jordan_U . as in window's world | 02:56 |
| CkhiKuzad | NotEther, its not an ISO. its an exe that allows you to netinstall from windows' boot menu | 02:56 |
| ascheel | Question about sources. I installed zsnes using aptitude on my laptop (running Lucid) but on my desktop (also Lucid), it's not found in any sources. Any way to tell which source on my laptop it came from so I can add it to my desktop? | 02:56 |
| meatbun | bootable is not really active in windows world.... | 02:56 |
| NotEther | oh nice | 02:56 |
| CkhiKuzad | i wont directly link to the program or anything. it is: http://goodbye-windows.com/downloads/debian/ (notether) | 02:56 |
| NotEther | will this trash my ubu install? | 02:57 |
| Jordan_U | meatbun: You can check with fdisk, but grub doesn't care about "active" partitions. | 02:57 |
| meatbun | Jordan_U: i want to make flash drive as ext2. unzip the ubuntu.iso on it. and use BIOS boot HDD option | 02:57 |
| NotEther | or is this like wubi | 02:57 |
| CkhiKuzad | NotEther: if you make a partition for it, it will install only on that partition | 02:57 |
| bigbrad | whae u here | 02:57 |
| meatbun | Jordan_U: oh.... so i see a star on fdisk -l | 02:57 |
| NotEther | hmmm.. but my current boot loader is grub | 02:57 |
| CkhiKuzad | it will add it | 02:57 |
| shreymech | how to create the backup copy of old kernel and how to install it again when required...?????? | 02:58 |
| Jordan_U | meatbun: You'll need to use a utility like unetbootin for that, but since you're not using windows the "active" partition is irrelevent | 02:58 |
| NotEther | cool thanks | 02:58 |
| NotEther | ill check it out | 02:58 |
| meatbun | Jordan_U: ok. but my netbook has a 'boot usb HDD option' | 02:58 |
| thune3 | ascheel: zsnes is part of universe repository, you may need to add it in System->Admin->Software Sources | 02:58 |
| CkhiKuzad | it will overwrite your grub, detecting the settings and adding them to its own. you should note that its going to take a long time to download the packages it needs to install and install them | 02:58 |
| fearful | Is there a work around child_rip error on amd64 without having to boot acpi=off? | 02:58 |
| Jordan_U | meatbun: That doesn't change anything. | 02:59 |
| wers | On lucid, how do I get the bleeding edge version of GNOME Shell? I have the version from ricotz's ppa, but it's too unusable | 02:59 |
| ascheel | thune3: Thank you. :) | 02:59 |
| Jordan_U | wers: Bleeding edge is going to be unstable, you can't generally have it both ways. | 02:59 |
| ascheel | wers, install from source | 02:59 |
| fearful | Is there a work around child_rip error on amd64 without having to boot acpi=off? | 03:00 |
| CkhiKuzad | NotEther, but dont overwrite any of your OSes with it, i used it without knowing what i was doing, and messed up the install and i was stuck in CLI mode. i installed it again, stuck in 640x480, then the third time, i got it working perfectly. | 03:00 |
| wers | Jordan_U, you're right. i meant, perhaps something's wrong with what I installed. it doesn't even let me do anything because it's too slow | 03:00 |
| blitzo | hi - can someon e tell me how to change grub boot options in wubi? i have to turn off acpi | 03:00 |
| shreymech | how to create the backup copy of old kernel and how to install it again when required...? | 03:01 |
| CkhiKuzad | NotEther, disregarding my advice would be a good idea. its likely that you might fail, and i dont want to be responsible for messing up your system | 03:01 |
| CkhiKuzad | sorry ._. | 03:01 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: Hold shift while selecting Ubuntu from the boot menu to get the grub menu. | 03:01 |
| DrPoO | how do I find out my network gateway? | 03:01 |
| blitzo | jordan_u then what to type? | 03:02 |
| jtigermi | hi everyone, can't mount my cdrom for some reason | 03:02 |
| DrPoO | is it the broadcast on my ifconfig output? | 03:02 |
| bigbrad | i need to know how to find the themes and where to install them | 03:02 |
| CkhiKuzad | bigbrad: try gnome-look.org | 03:02 |
| thune3 | DrPoO: it's the address with UG flag in "route -n" ouput | 03:02 |
| blitzo | jordan_u what do i do at the grub menu | 03:03 |
| NotEther | CkhiKuzad lol | 03:03 |
| DrPoO | thune3, thanks dude! | 03:03 |
| NotEther | CkhiKuzad I dont care man, worst case I reinstall | 03:03 |
| ascheel | thune3: how did you know which source zsnes was in? | 03:03 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: "e" to edit the first entry, then add "acpi=off" at the end of the linux line, after "quiet splash", then press ctrl+X to boot the edited entry. | 03:03 |
| CkhiKuzad | alright NotEther. as long as you have a backup plan. i've done it before, and it takes forever. i used that exact program too. | 03:04 |
| whae | ok settled that now! | 03:04 |
| NotEther | im doing this on a netbook | 03:04 |
| NotEther | btw | 03:04 |
| blitzo | jordan_u thx man, you have been a great help these last few days, we really appreciate you | 03:05 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: You're welcome. | 03:05 |
| CkhiKuzad | Jordan_U, i have a question, and i kind of think you might be able to help. If i do an upgrade and i am not in root mode, is it almost guaranteed to fail? | 03:06 |
| whae | hey where all the shout cast from VLC gone? | 03:06 |
| shreymech | Jordan_U, man plzz can u tell me hw to create a backup copy of old kernel ..?? bcz i lost some drivers in new kernels.. so i need to keep my old one as a backup | 03:06 |
| Jordan_U | CkhiKuzad: What do you mean by "root mode"? | 03:06 |
| CkhiKuzad | sudo, gksu, su, etc. | 03:06 |
| NotEther | is there a ubu netbook chan | 03:06 |
| RocketLauncher | http://pastebin.com/GzBxP6fw i get this error trying to use wicd-client -n. What's rong? | 03:06 |
| thune3 | ascheel: i did "apt-file search zsnes" determined the package name was actually zsnes, then checked "apt-cache show zsnes" or "apt-cache policy zsnes" and saw universe as the repo. This worked because i had universe repo added. Another way is to check http://packages.ubuntu.com/ | 03:07 |
| CkhiKuzad | anything where i have superuser access. | 03:07 |
| ascheel | Thanks! | 03:07 |
| tonysan | I need to login my Ubuntu desktop as if I am in front of that computer | 03:07 |
| whae | opps shoutcast no longer supported! | 03:07 |
| tonysan | But I can't access vnc before login | 03:07 |
| Jordan_U | CkhiKuzad: Yes, upgrades need to perform tasks that require root privileges. | 03:07 |
| blitzo | jordan_u, are you sure it is the shift key? the system boots directly into wubi, we do niot get a grub menu | 03:08 |
| Jordan_U | shreymech: Old kernels are kept by default, hold shift during boot to select an older kernel. | 03:08 |
| whae | blitzo: shift shift it is! | 03:08 |
| CkhiKuzad | \o/ i know why they always fail! like i always say, i would hug you, Jordan_U, but i dont hug people online. so you will have to settle with thank you. | 03:08 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: Yes, did you start holding shift before selecting Ubuntu? | 03:08 |
| CkhiKuzad | so thank you. | 03:08 |
| shreymech | Jordan_U, but i heard like there is a limit of that too... if the limit exceeds system automatically deletes oldest kernel... | 03:09 |
| blitzo | jordan_u yes | 03:09 |

| blitzo | whae jordan_u held down shift key before and during boot, did not get a grub menu, it boots to the desktop directly. HOWever, if we press 'c' instead of enter when selecting ubuntu then we get a grub command line - what do we type on the grub command line? | 03:19 |
| RocketLauncher | http://pastebin.com/GzBxP6fw i get this error trying to use wicd-client -n. What's wrong with this? | 03:19 |

| shreymech | thune3, thanx alot man,,,, | 03:20 |

| dragonmere | Kudos to those helping; good luck to those seeking help. | 03:20 |

| BigC | How many processors would show up under ubuntu for this processor? AMD Phenom II X3 Triple-Core P820. 3 or 6? | 03:22 |
| hylian | anyone know how to fix this? "Error while copying file (Error splicing file: Input/output error)" | 03:22 |
| blitzo | jordan_u whae my guess is 10.04 has changed the grub options from previous versions | 03:23 |
| alien_ | hylian: what was your command? | 03:23 |
| SNN | BigC, if you're using ubuntu on that machine, cat /proc/cpuinfo and check. I'd assume three, considering it's a triple-core system, X3 usually refers to the cores, from what I see, anyways. | 03:23 |
| whae | blitzo: thats what i was asking on the command line what you whant to acheive | 03:23 |
| blitzo | whae need to turn off acpi | 03:23 |
| hylian | im trying to copy a file form a cd to the hard drive. and i get this error: Error while copying file (Error splicing file: Input/output error) | 03:23 |
| whae | blitzo: so try no=acpi | 03:24 |
| blitzo | whae shouldn't it be acpi=no (or off)? | 03:24 |
| BigC | SNN, I am not using that computer, but I was thinking about buying a computer that had that type of processor, and just wanted to know if it would register as 3 or 6? | 03:24 |
| SNN | BigC, as said, I assume 3. Check the tech specs from the place you're looking to buy it from, they should have more information available :) | 03:25 |
| blitzo | whae do i have to specify any other options too? or is this added to the default set of options? | 03:25 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: That's odd. It's difficult to load wubi manually, so let's try at least one more thing to get the menu. | 03:25 |
| alien_ | hylian: can you get the results from dmsg | tail | 03:25 |
| whae | blitzo: sorry try acpi=off | 03:25 |
| alien_ | put them in pastebin | 03:25 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: At the grub shell run "set recordfail=1; export recordfail; configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg" | 03:26 |
| blitzo | jordan_u those are sh commands - are you telling me grub will run them or do i have to boot to a shell? | 03:26 |
| alien_ | their grub commands | 03:27 |
| whae | blitzo: what are you trying to achieve? | 03:27 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: Grub will run them, grub's shell is modeled after sh. | 03:27 |
| blitzo | whae i already explained: i have to turn off acpi | 03:27 |
| whae | blitzo: ok so just turn it off! | 03:28 |

| noob_69 | Let me try it | 03:32 |
| whae | Jordan_U: acpi=off OR noacpi iswhat he seems to want | 03:32 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: No, I was hoping that would show you the grub menu. If you're booted to a desktop though you can just edit /etc/default/grub (add acpi=off to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX) then run "sudo update-grub" to make the change permanent. | 03:32 |

| Jordan_U | whae: Yes, the question was how to add the kernel parameter at boot when holding shift wasn't showing the grub menu. | 03:33 |
| fablinix | dydt: cd "My Folder" or cd My \Folder I think | 03:33 |
| alien_ | dydt: use \ before the space | 03:34 |
| BigC | dydt: cd /home/user/My\ Folder/ | 03:34 |

| xangua | emma: what are you trying to edit¿¿ | 04:26 |
| blitzo | whae flyeng4 sorry it'll be the installation forum. the node in question is 1500 miles away and i am advising by skype. my friend is a total noob to linux and not computer literate even on windows | 04:26 |
| Sary | Any guide with translation UserDocumentation ? | 04:26 |
| magicianlord | do you have some question? | 04:27 |
| whae | blitzo: if YOU cant get the relavante output I cant help you | 04:27 |
| blitzo | whae flyeng4 if firsthand knowledge required then linux is not an option and she will have to stay on windows - that is really incredibly bad news and does not speak well of linux | 04:27 |
| Sary | We need to translate this page to Arabic language for the newcomers https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UserDocumentation/ | 04:28 |
| magicianlord | linux is a kernel | 04:28 |
| magicianlord | it's not an operating system | 04:28 |

| blitzo | whae flyeng4 she can read screen and relay to me and i relay to you but for long output it is diffuclt - i am not a noob by any stretch | 04:29 |
| whae | blitzo: ok maybe you should go to her machine and the ask for help | 04:29 |
| trojan_spike | is the language in need of a change? | 04:30 |
| Sary | Thanks Ubuntu | 04:30 |
| blitzo | whae she is 1500 miles away | 04:30 |
| flyeng4 | blitzo: I understand some frustration but linux dists have really come to a point where they are usable by everyone with a little work. Does she have a computer that is connected to the internet that is near by? | 04:30 |
| blitzo | fleng4 yes she has a windows box on the net | 04:30 |
| blitzo | flyeng4 yes she has a win box on the net - that is how we are doing skype | 04:31 |
| whae | blitzo: this is the internet!!!! miles dont matter but I thake you point | 04:31 |
| blitzo | whae it is not an option for me to go the the box so pls don't suggest it | 04:31 |
| whae | blitzo: thats not what I meant | 04:31 |
| trojan_spike | whats the main prob blitzo ?? | 04:31 |
| BigC_ | sudo apt-get send blitzo to-problem-box | 04:32 |
| flyeng4 | blitzo: I would suggest having her type everything ... line for line character for charcter ... into something like paste bin so we can "see" her screen | 04:32 |
| flyeng4 | blitzo: we really are working kinda blind here? | 04:32 |
| BigC_ | jk blitzo | 04:32 |
| mattyb | Hello all. If I create an admin group, add that group to the sudoers file with all privs, then add a user to that group, should it ask for their password when prefaced with sudo? | 04:33 |
| trojan_spike | try to have 1 sudo user. | 04:33 |
| blitzo | trojan_spike whae flyeng4: brief version of the probs: ubuntu crashes randomly. we started with wubi, were advised to install ubuntu on the harddisk, still crashes randomly. have no gone back to wubi and changed boot option to turn off acpi. having turned off acpi the network manager cannot see the wifi. should be no connection but that is what happened, maybe coincidence. now we are trying to get the wifi up. she does not have an ethernet | 04:34 |
| blitzo | cable and cannot get one | 04:34 |
| karen | How can I display a samba network tree from CLI? | 04:34 |
| karen | Or list all shares from a given host | 04:34 |
| mattyb | trojan_spike: I've only got one. | 04:34 |
| karen | (I know the host name just not the name of the shares) | 04:34 |
| flyeng4 | blitzo: I would suggest that she steels a 6' ethernet cable from work and gets on here tomorrow night. | 04:35 |
| flyeng4 | Would help out to have first hand info. | 04:35 |
| blitzo | flyeng4 network cable not an option right now | 04:36 |
| whae | mattyb: sudo is for a user only no group AFAIK | 04:36 |
| trojan_spike | blitzo, so u have wubi inside of windows?? | 04:36 |
| blitzo | trojan_spike yes | 04:36 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: I'd say that disabling acpi is mostly a stab in the dark, unless you have reason to believe that the crashes are related to acpi. Has disabling acpi made the crashes stop or are they not frequent enough to tell yet? | 04:36 |
| mattyb | whae: ? | 04:36 |
| blitzo | jordan_u too soon to tell - i take what suggestions ppl give me, i don't know how to debug this | 04:37 |
| whae | mattyb: theres no sudo group | 04:37 |
| usacomputertec | hey does anyone in here know what the tracker URL is for the pirate bay? I've tried several of them so I could upload Ubuntu but I can't find the right onw | 04:37 |
| usacomputertec | one | 04:37 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: What are the symptoms of the crashing? | 04:37 |
| mattyb | whae: yes there is. cat /etc/group | 04:37 |
| blitzo | jordan_u total hang and no clues in the system logs | 04:37 |
| whae | mattyb: an admin group doesnt need sudo | 04:38 |
| trojan_spike | kk,, well id suggest her going bk to windows,, uninstalling wubi and making a free partition.. and instead of using ubuntu for 1st linux she should use linux mint 7.. | 04:38 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: Does sysrq magic work? | 04:38 |
| === kevdog_ is now known as kevdog | ||
| === Mathias6710 is now known as mistAr | ||
| blitzo | jordan_u dunno what that is | 04:38 |
| Jordan_U | !sysrq | blitzo | 04:38 |
| ubottu | blitzo: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 04:38 |
| mattyb | whae: http://articles.slicehost.com/2010/4/30/ubuntu-lucid-setup-part-1 | 04:38 |
| blitzo | jordan_u total hang means total hang. the system is DEAD | 04:39 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: You can also try alt+sysrq+k to just kill X (the GUI) before forcing a full reboot. | 04:39 |
| blitzo | jordan_u i meant what i said. the system is totally and completely DEAD | 04:39 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: Your GUI can be completely unresponsive and the kernel can still respond to sysrq. | 04:39 |
| blitzo | jordan_u the console is dead too | 04:40 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: Console included. | 04:40 |
| blitzo | jordan_u will try that | 04:40 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: If the caps light isn't blinking there's still hope :) | 04:40 |
| === kvatrich is now known as kvatrich_ | ||
| blitzo | jordan_u these crashes have occured while updating the system - dunno how to recover from that | 04:41 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: It can also sometimes be usefull to be ssh'd into the computer from another machine at the time of the crash. | 04:41 |
| blitzo | jordan_u and no errors in the system logs | 04:41 |
| whae | mattyb: excately where in that long doc? | 04:42 |
| blitzo | jordan_u i will have her reverse vnc to me - she can't recong her fouter for port forward | 04:42 |
| blitzo | jordan_u but we can't do that either without wifi | 04:42 |
| mattyb | whae: 'User administration' section | 04:42 |
| blitzo | jordan_u without errors in syslog or messages how do you know where to start troubleshooting | 04:43 |
| zus | how can i find out what video chip my mother board is using? | 04:44 |
| blitzo | jordan_u how will it help me to be connected to her system at time of crash | 04:44 |
| karen | Anyone have any idea why Samba wouldn't see my Window's file server? | 04:44 |
| blitzo | jordan_u how will it help me to be connected to her system at time of crash? | 04:45 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: While it's less likely that networking will still be working than sysrq, if networking does still work you can diagnose the problem during the "crash". Linux is very modular, so often times networking and other functionality will keep working even if writing to the screen doesn't. | 04:46 |
| karmst | Hello | 04:46 |
| karmst | How do you get SWAT to allow for configuration in Ubuntu? | 04:47 |

| karmst | all I get is status and view options | 04:47 |
| whae | hey guys does ubuntu need a wheel group? I dont think it does... but hay? | 04:47 |
| Jordan_U | blitzo: Yes. | 04:47 |
| mattyb | whae: 'wheel' is just a personalization. I use 'admin' | 04:48 |
| Jordan_U | whae: It's actually kind of funny, su (since a wheel group is generally used with su rather than sudo) in GNU/Linux doesn't support having a wheel group concept as Richard Stallman objects to it morally. | 04:50 |

| ole2 | And, BTW, an easy question: how can I make something autostart as Root? | 06:19 |
| tensorpudding | It might be possible that the touchpad issue could be fixed by writing an xorg.conf | 06:21 |

| thune3 | ole2: but are you talking about autostarting *in* the desktop session? | 06:22 |

| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

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+) | 06:27 |

| bytesaber | sudo grub -> command not found. why isn't it available on livecd's anymore? | 06:37 |
| ActionParsnip | blitzo: ok let's go all in: dmesg | less ,read through. It will show the pad being detected | 06:37 |
| ActionParsnip | !grub2 | bytesaber | 06:38 |
| ubottu | bytesaber: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10. For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 06:38 |
| bytesaber | i'm not trying to mess with grub 2 | 06:38 |
| bytesaber | just need to fix grub on a different system | 06:38 |
| bullgard | thune3: My /usr/bin/mlocate has now the group owner mlocate. Still the same error message appears. | 06:39 |
| bytesaber | a normal task for a livecd | 06:39 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber: grub legacy is available on the repo still. You can download it in the live environment | 06:39 |
| bytesaber | livecd. no internet connection | 06:39 |
| blitzo | ActionParsnip all that's in my dmesg is firewall logs - another logfile? | 06:39 |
| bytesaber | how do you get into the grub2 commandline then? | 06:39 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber: I have web connection in my live cd sessions. Just because its the livecsd doesn't always mean no connection | 06:39 |
| daedalus96 | AP, I am using Jaunty, and doesn't seem like what i need | 06:39 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber: not sure. The factoid is all I know | 06:40 |
| bullgard | thune3: Your command 'sudo chown :mlocate /usr/bin/mlocate' did not help. | 06:40 |

| bytesaber | ActionParsnip, it's not a typeical host on a lan. has different pppoe connections. don't know the credentials to authenticate it from the live cd currently. | 06:40 |
| MaRk-I | bullgard: you need to be part of the "slocate" group | 06:41 |
| bytesaber | is a ubuntu livecd no longer useful for fixing bootloaders? can grub2 from the live cd help me fix a grub1 ? such as grub -> root (hd0,4) -> setup (hd0,3) | 06:42 |
| bytesaber | installing grub onto a different hdd and pulling it from the system | 06:42 |
| tensorpudding | you can edit the /boot/menu.lst or whichever using the live environment just fine | 06:42 |
| bastid_raZor | bullgard: speaking of that.. what groups is your user in? i have permissions to use those command an am not in the slocate group | 06:42 |
| bytesaber | tensorpudding, how do i get into the grub cml from the live cd? | 06:42 |
| willemb | ogex, any luck? | 06:43 |
| bullgard | thune3: Following an advice in a kernel newbees web page I typed a command inadvertently wrong . (Most likely I typed a space character in a command.) Now I need to fix many Unix access rights. | 06:43 |

| ogex | hehehe | 06:43 |
| ogex | i remove all :9 | 06:43 |
| tensorpudding | bytesaber: What exactly is it you need to fix? | 06:44 |
| bastid_raZor | ogex: apt-get clean would have been the proper command :\ | 06:44 |
| tensorpudding | I don't think grub2 can install grub1 to the mbr | 06:44 |

| ActionParsnip | daedalus96: back, ok dude if you rmmod those modules then it should work. I can't read the help page myself as my browser doesn't like it | 06:51 |
| ActionParsnip | daedalus96: rmmodding only removes the module from ram so a reboot or modprobe can load them back in. If it works then you can blacklist the modules making things bad and it will fly | 06:52 |
| daedalus96 | i don't even have 'System > Administration > Network' | 06:53 |

| mj8741 | swarna: maybe fotowall | 06:58 |

| lukio | Hi | 06:58 |
| ennui | ActionParsnip: I will give that a shot. I would prefer to learn how to do it from the command line. I know linux has limited hfs support but I have these old partitions created from OSX and I have no space to back them up so I can reformat to ext4 T_T | 06:58 |
| swarna | mj8741, do we have deb package for fotowall | 06:59 |
| ActionParsnip | ennui: why not just format the partition to ext4 with a label then restore the data from backup | 06:59 |
| mj8741 | swarna: it's in applications Ubuntu software center | 06:59 |
| ennui | ActionParsnip: I have no space to back up my data | 07:00 |
| styx993 | so i upgraded some packages a few days ago, and got a new kernel version | 07:00 |
| mj8741 | swarna: or you can use terminal: sudo apt-get install fotowall | 07:00 |
| ActionParsnip | ennui: so what if your drives motor suddenly fails. Where is your data? | 07:00 |
| styx993 | now when i use my browser, i have 100% cpu usage as "iowait" sometimes | 07:00 |

| ennui | can anyone suggest a good HDD enclosure? I imagine internal drives end up being much less expensive | 07:07 |
| ActionParsnip | styx993: try reinstalling the bcmlw-source package (or whatever it is). May just recreate the driver for you | 07:08 |
| sprung | misrel, 1) this is where you ask 'nub' questions, and it's actually against the rules to call anyone a 'noob' etc., so feel welcome to ask away 2) what video card are you using? it depends. | 07:08 |
| styx993 | all right, thank you, ActionParsnip | 07:08 |
| ActionParsnip | ennui: ask in ##hardware. Internal is cheaper | 07:08 |

| alien92 | how can i install visualboyadvance on ubuntu 10.04 | 07:09 |
| styx993 | well, it's definitely the wireless driver. i just disabled it (i'm on a wired connection too), and now it isn't happening. | 07:09 |

| sprung | misrel, is it detecting the second monitor? | 07:10 |
| styx993 | ActionParsnip, do you think i should also install the fwcutter? | 07:11 |
| misrel | yeah, i just want to stop programs from full screening to both screens, as in it stretchs across them | 07:11 |
| styx993 | that was one of the two options in the drivers screen that came up when i first started the system | 07:11 |
| sprung | misrel, which programs? | 07:11 |
| misrel | is it possible to get it to Fullscreen to the main monitor and leave the 2nd monitor with just the desktop GUI up | 07:11 |
| ActionParsnip | styx993: worth a shot if its already installed | 07:11 |
| misrel | 1 example is Frets on fire | 07:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Gotta love FoF | 07:12 |
| misrel | but all 3D/Open gl apps so far have done it | 07:12 |

| mikeru | which X program can identify the process of a window? e.g. like xkill but instead of killing it says which process owns a window | 07:42 |
| styx993 | i guess i could purge them... | 07:43 |
| SwedeMike | Secularjoe: look into "apt-get build-dep" | 07:43 |

| RobbieThe1st | mikeru: wont pidof work? | 07:43 |
| mikeru | RobbieThe1st: I need to know which program owns a window in X. e.g. I don't know the program's filename, all I can see is it's window. | 07:44 |
| RobbieThe1st | Hm, what program is this? | 07:45 |
| gelan | Secularjoe, "sudo apt-get install build-essential" | 07:45 |
| thune3 | styx993: i'm not clear how xulrunner version would influence your install. I might try purging all the flash-related install packages and trying again. | 07:45 |
| moetunes | mikeru: try xprop when you run it you click the window you want to identify | 07:46 |
| hoelk | thune3, thanks for your tip with the kernel repository, worked, i now have internet and video at the same time! feels like the future | 07:46 |
| styx993 | thune3: i just purged nspluginwrapper and flashplayer-install and it didn't work. i'm now purging those, firefox, and chrome and seeing if it works | 07:46 |
| mikeru | moetunes: perfect | 07:46 |
| moetunes | :] | 07:46 |
| mikeru | moetunes: whoa, it even draws the icon in ASCII art! ha | 07:47 |
| moetunes | hehe | 07:47 |
| thune3 | hoelk: i'm curious as to all of what you did to get video (8xx problem i'm assuming) to work | 07:47 |
| RobbieThe1st | mikeru: What program is this? | 07:47 |
| RobbieThe1st | Oh wait, NRM | 07:48 |
| mikeru | I <3 xprop | 07:49 |
| styx993 | woo hoo, nothing is working. i'm thinking of purging ia32-libs next... | 07:49 |

| ubottu | Treaver erkan^: 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. :-) | 07:58 |
| Treaver | I am running Windows 7, If I install Ubuntu onto my computer will I be able to axcess my windows 7 taskbar & desktop??? | 07:58 |
| iceroot | Treaver: yes | 07:58 |

| CkhiKuzad | Treaver, if you install ubuntu, you will be able to access them when you boot into 7, but not inside ubuntu. | 07:59 |
| styx993 | yay not hard drive failure! | 07:59 |
| CkhiKuzad | \o/ | 07:59 |
| Treaver | Ok if I can see my taskbar How will I be able to use linux desktop if I am on my windows 7 desktop I am soooo cunfuzzleled... | 07:59 |
| erkan^ | do you understand, CkhiKuzad? | 07:59 |
| styx993 | urgh that problem with iowait is still happening | 08:00 |
| CkhiKuzad | Treaver, if you are booting into Ubuntu, you will be in ubuntu. ubuntu looks kind of similar to Mac, and Kubuntu looks similar to Windows. you will not be in windows when you boot into ubuntu | 08:00 |
| styx993 | it takes all of my chrome tabs with it, but not the outer bit of the browser | 08:00 |
| Treaver | So if I am in ubuntu I can't axcess Windows & Viseversa? Boot = Turning on right? So when i turn it on I choose Ubuntu/Windows right? | 08:00 |
| Redcl0ud | Treaver, yes when you have both installed and you cut your pc on you will be able to choose win 7 or ubuntu | 08:01 |
| Treaver | Ok that's great umm 1 more question | 08:02 |
| mikeru | Treaver: when you turn your computer on, you choose between windows and ubuntu. when you've chosen one, you'll be using that one and not the other. if you want to use the other one, you must restart your computer and choose the other one | 08:02 |
| CkhiKuzad | ok, i will answer them in the order you asked. If you are in ubuntu, you can access your windows files. but in windows, i dont know about accessing linux files. they are different filesystems (ext* for lin, NTFS/fat for win) | 08:02 |
| joschi | Treaver: you can install Ubuntu in VirtualBox, VMware or VirtualPC. this way, when running the Ubuntu VM, you can also access your running Windows 7 | 08:02 |
| CkhiKuzad | meh, you guys can handle helping Treaver, i will help erkan^ now. | 08:02 |
| thune3 | CkhiKuzad: i was focused on the "W:" warnings. Can you just run "sudo apt-get update" to clear the error? | 08:02 |
| Treaver | I downloading the Iso or sumthign file now do i just burn that to cd and then what do i do to get pc ready to install | 08:02 |
| jerry | guys i cant change home folders premissions can you someone please help me ....the kids was changed premissions and folder isnt accesible (( | 08:02 |
| CkhiKuzad | just a second thune3 | 08:03 |
| Treaver | I watched a tutorial that said i had to like deduct memory from my c:/ | 08:03 |
| Sacho | !install | 08:03 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 08:03 |
| Treaver | mikeru and joschi | 08:03 |
| Redcl0ud | Treaver, just make sure you have enough hard drive space available to install ubuntu on | 08:03 |
| Sacho | Treaver: try those links. | 08:04 |
| Treaver | Is it possible for yall to talk to me via phone while i install | 08:04 |
| CkhiKuzad | thune3, i think it may have been fixed. | 08:04 |
| Sacho | Unlikely. | 08:04 |
| CkhiKuzad | i am doing an update run, getting EVERY update that i can get. so i can upgrade to 9.10, then mass update tomorrow, then upgrade to 10.04 | 08:05 |
| Redcl0ud | installing ubuntu these days is a breeze compared to when I first tried to install redhat back in the day | 08:05 |
| CkhiKuzad | hopefully neither will fail. and if they do, i have backups. | 08:05 |
| Treaver | How long once i get it on cd will it take to install | 08:05 |
| Seveas-train | Treaver, 20 minutes | 08:05 |
| Seveas-train | possibly less | 08:05 |
| kynyga | Assuming the pc in question isnt ancient | 08:05 |
| Treaver | ok I will see | 08:05 |
| CkhiKuzad | Treaver, it depends on how fast the drive is. | 08:05 |
| SwedeMike | Redcl0ud: try installing slackware in the beginning, it came on ~30 1.44M floppys :P | 08:06 |
| CkhiKuzad | my PC is ancient, and it takes about a half hour to install. when i got this one it ran windows ME | 08:06 |
| Treaver | omfg my gpa used to run that! | 08:06 |
| CkhiKuzad | o.O | 08:06 |
| CkhiKuzad | gpa? | 08:06 |
| hoelk | thune3, that thing from the forums... something like 915.modeset=1 (or 0?) in the grub.cfg ... then it works (not for all machines though from what i heared)... but when you watch videos the system crashes with the standard lucid kernel | 08:06 |
| nanoha-sama | windows me | 08:06 |
| Treaver | then we upgraded to windows 7 an i seen today that u could run both and i wanted to try | 08:06 |
| nanoha-sama | =mistake edition | 08:06 |
| SwedeMike | installing ubuntu from a usb drive is usually much quicker than from cd, the random access times advantage of solid storage really shows there | 08:07 |
| CkhiKuzad | nanoha-sama, i agree 100% with you there. | 08:07 |
| Redcl0ud | SwedeMike, thankfully I never tried slackware but Mandrake was the first one I fully used but it had a graphical inface when you installed it :) | 08:07 |
| nanoha-sama | SwedeMike if you are inclined, you can speed that up a lot better with installing ubuntu over the network | 08:07 |
| CkhiKuzad | plus, if your computer can run 7, it probably has a BIOS that can boot USB. | 08:07 |
| CkhiKuzad | <.< unlike mine. | 08:07 |
| nanoha-sama | my fedora installs over the network usually take less than 10-20 minutes | 08:07 |
| nanoha-sama | ubuntu not too sure over the network | 08:08 |
| SwedeMike | nanoha-sama: I grew bored of netbooting in the 90ties with sun 3/80:s :P | 08:08 |
| sbach89 | ubuntu server is about 20 mins | 08:08 |
| sbach89 | dont know about desktop though | 08:08 |
| Seveas-train | desktop is quicker | 08:08 |
| thune3 | hoelk: right. i'm familiar with the "workaround". So what did you upgrade to achieve a fix? | 08:08 |
| SwedeMike | installing from a usb drive to ssd is done much quicker, can take as little as 5 minutes from when the install starts | 08:08 |
| nanoha-sama | hm... talking about net-installs, does ubuntu support installing from a network source by any chance? | 08:08 |
| countley | cheers i got recoed my desktop just dont know what command to us to output .avi | 08:08 |
| Seveas-train | doesn't need to unpack everything and run all postinst scripts | 08:08 |
| Seveas-train | nanoha-sama, it definitely does | 08:09 |
| SwedeMike | nanoha-sama: it installs some from the network, but not like the debian ~125 meg installer that takes most from network. | 08:09 |
| nanoha-sama | like copying the ubuntu cd sources to a FTP/HTTP server on the LAN and then use tbe ubuntu boot media and point it to an installation source over the network | 08:09 |
| nanoha-sama | because I've done that with fedora 13 countless times | 08:09 |
| nanoha-sama | just can't seem to figure out how on ubuntu | 08:09 |
| jerry | chmod - help home foder please i can t acces it under root (( | 08:09 |
| CkhiKuzad | does ubuntu make you restart a lot when you install 120 megs worth of updates? | 08:09 |
| Seveas-train | nanoha-sama, debian and ubuntu can both be installed without any media as long as you can boot from the network | 08:09 |
| nanoha-sama | besides, to make matters worse, my http/ftp servers are running on windows 2008 | 08:10 |
| CkhiKuzad | a lot meaning typically. | 08:10 |
| Treaver | If I have problems | 08:10 |
| SwedeMike | CkhiKuzad: it's always just a single restart, most of the time it's no restart (only kernel upgrades require restart) | 08:10 |
| Treaver | can one of you like remote pc me and help | 08:10 |
| nanoha-sama | and no, my network's already netbooting windows installations | 08:10 |
| nanoha-sama | and it's the newer WDS system | 08:10 |
| CkhiKuzad | i got a kernel update SwedeMike | 08:10 |
| nanoha-sama | but yeah, what I'm looking at is ubuntu installing from the network | 08:10 |
| Redcl0ud | Treaver, if you want I can give you a link to a video that can help you before you actually do it | 08:10 |
| nanoha-sama | is it as simple as copy over the sources? | 08:11 |
| SwedeMike | CkhiKuzad: then it's a single reboot. | 08:11 |
| Seveas-train | nanoha-sama, set up a tftp daemon and point to it in the dhcp config. Stick the installer kernel/initramfs on there. | 08:11 |
| CkhiKuzad | woot | 08:11 |
| Seveas-train | and make the packages available via http (or just make it use archive.ubuntu.com) | 08:11 |
| Seveas-train | nanoha-sama, the ubuntu documentation explains this in more detail :) | 08:12 |
| thune3 | hoelk: just upgrade the kernel? did you still need "i915.modeset=1"? Also did kernel automatically prompt upgrade from https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa or which package from that did you have to install? | 08:12 |
| nanoha-sama | ah, that's what I need, Seveas | 08:12 |

| blitzo | jordan_u hi, it's the guy trying to help a friend do an install from remote, we have just reinstalled wubi and i wanted her to backup xorg.conf - the file doesn't exist, how does x configure itswelf without /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 08:18 |
| orionix | sbach89, take a look at howtoforge.com, there are some howtos there related w/ dovecot & postfix | 08:18 |
| sbach89 | ya i actually followed the guide there | 08:18 |
| styx993 | blitzo: it automagically configures itself now. it detects devices and stuff | 08:19 |
| sbach89 | im having problems adding account in pop clients | 08:19 |
| styx993 | i personally have a mild dislike for that system | 08:19 |
| Very_Cool | is there a way to install ubuntu as a second operating system to windows and then on top of that under windows have ubuntu run in vmware when I need something quick done? | 08:19 |
| sbach89 | It keeps telling me invalid username and password | 08:19 |
| orionix | sbach89, you mean, adding dovecot user account for pop3 access ? | 08:19 |
| shed | yeah use WINE | 08:19 |
| styx993 | shed, wine isn't complete yet | 08:20 |
| orionix | sbach89, what kind of auth mode you use in dovecot? (/etc/passwd, mysqldb, etc) | 08:20 |
| sbach89 | plain text | 08:20 |
| styx993 | Very_Cool: i'm not sure about vmware, but can you use a drive instead of a disk image? you could set it up to use your hard drive to boot off of | 08:20 |
| Very_Cool | styx993, thanks, Im goign to go read into that now | 08:21 |
| ddrj | if you don't have nautilus or gnome (supposing you're using lubuntu), how do you browse the shared folders on the network? | 08:21 |
| Very_Cool | styx993, How would ubuntu handle loading in the different enivornments? | 08:21 |
| ddrj | i can see the shared folders using pcmanfm2 but i can't open it (it says open with application) | 08:22 |
| styx993 | Very_Cool: i think it should work pretty much the same, but slower | 08:22 |
| RobbieThe1st | Very_Cool: I tried exactly what you were suggesting, with Sun's VirtualBox. I couldn't get the same install to work with both normal booting and inside a VM | 08:22 |
| styx993 | i'm not sure if it would be able to use hw acceleration for the wm or not, though | 08:22 |
| shed | The Wine team is proud to announce that the stable release Wine 1.2 is now available | 08:23 |
| RobbieThe1st | The issue was with bootloader and MBR, not the OS itself | 08:23 |
| Very_Cool | RobbieThe1st, thanks | 08:23 |
| styx993 | shed, it is still not a complete replacement for windows, though | 08:23 |
| RobbieThe1st | But you can use different images, and just keep all your files on a seperate partition. | 08:23 |
| styx993 | can you run, for example, visual studio? | 08:23 |
| Sacho | It doesn't aim to be, styx993. | 08:23 |
| ssorc | help ping | 08:23 |
| styx993 | he said he was using windows, and presumably didn't want to replace it | 08:24 |
| julius_ | ubuntu is great | 08:25 |
| styx993 | yes it is, mostly | 08:25 |
| Treaver | ok | 08:25 |
| Treaver | my friend said | 08:25 |
| Treaver | Ubuntu doesn't allow HD | 08:26 |
| Treaver | Is this true? | 08:26 |
| Sacho | "HD"? | 08:26 |
| styx993 | it is epic when it works (most of the time), but hell when it doesn't (sometimes) | 08:26 |
| Treaver | High Quality , High Definition, 1080p | 08:26 |
| Redcl0ud | I don't think everything needs to be in HD | 08:26 |
| styx993 | what do you want to be hd? | 08:26 |
| Treaver | Does it have HD or now | 08:26 |
| Treaver | not | 08:26 |
| styx993 | it depends on what you want to be hd | 08:27 |
| styx993 | it probably does | 08:27 |
| Treaver | like youtube hd 1080p | 08:27 |
| julius_ | i had some trouble with grub2 and windows , eventually scrapped the windows | 08:27 |
| styx993 | yes, it supports that | 08:27 |
| styx993 | i dunno if linux can play blu-rays yet, though | 08:27 |
| Jordan_U | Treaver: Yes, it can play HD video. It's hard to play BLue Ray disks though. | 08:27 |
| cjs | Mine always says Permission Denied | 08:28 |
| styx993 | julius_: what happened with it? | 08:28 |
| julius_ | it looked ok, had xp in the list but when i selected to boot from it it went to blank screen and halted with blinking cursor I screwed up windows messing with its mbr | 08:29 |

| jamil_1 | hello, How do I supply proxy settings to java for viewing java applets in browser. I have tried the System->Preference->Sun java6 Control Panel. But when I open an applet in firefox it keeps asking for username and passwd | 08:30 |
| styx993 | julius_, did you have it as something like "root(hd0,2)\n chainloader +1"? | 08:30 |
| styx993 | (\n == newline) | 08:30 |
| Hrimfaxi|ubuntu | is desktop effects available under vmware workstation 7.1? | 08:30 |
| julius_ | it wasnt 2 it was either 1 or 0 | 08:30 |
| hoelk | thune3, sorry was away. I still need the modeset (at least i think so), and the package i installed just now is: linux-image-generic-pae-lts-backport-maverick. I had the tip with the kernel upgrade from some forum post, thats where i got that other ppa from i was using before. video also worked fine with that one, but my wireless broke. | 08:31 |
| styx993 | julius_: the root command will be different based on how partitions are set up. it was probably 0 | 08:32 |
| hoelk | thune3, hope that answers all your questions. | 08:32 |
| styx993 | assuming you installed windows first, and had it as the first partition | 08:32 |
| julius_ | i believe so | 08:32 |
| gelan | julius_, it is possible that you overwrote your windows boot sector with grub2 | 08:32 |
| julius_ | yeah i tried fixboot and managed to trash it | 08:32 |
| thune3 | hoelk: so just the kernel upgrade and maybe the modeset option. Thx!!! | 08:33 |
| julius_ | lol | 08:33 |
| styx993 | aah, it worked for me out of the box | 08:33 |
| styx993 | all i needed was the two commands and it worked fine | 08:33 |
| julius_ | havent had any other trouble though | 08:33 |
| cjs | I use two separate physical drives and it worked perfectly straight away | 08:33 |
| hoelk | thune3, yeah that basically does the trick... without the kernel it still works after the modeset thing, but the system crashes when you watch videos (f.e. with mplayer, vlc, etc..) | 08:34 |
| julius_ | i first put one on each drive and the same thing happened so i parted the first | 08:34 |
| hoelk | thune3, i read however that for some people it might still not work :( | 08:34 |
| cjs | check the bios boot order | 08:34 |
| cjs | you need bios to scan in same order as grub | 08:35 |
| thune3 | hoelk: as you said before the workaround modeset thing works for some but still has crashes for others (like you). OK good info that backport kernel may also not work. | 08:35 |
| cjs | otherwise the drives get muddled up | 08:35 |
| Treaver | i was kidding | 08:35 |
| julius_ | ahhh | 08:35 |
| julius_ | im on dialup and dling the alternate cd via torrent. Im ready to upgrade to 10.4 | 08:37 |

| sk_ | When I click on Shut Down it restarts.. | 08:38 |
| sk_ | Can anyone help!..?? | 08:38 |

| Treaver | anyne here know if ubuntu does or will support directx(Doubt it >.<) or OpenGL? | 08:39 |
| jamil_1 | styx993, addon ? | 08:39 |
| Treaver | =] | 08:39 |
| styx993 | it already supports OpenGL, Treaver | 08:39 |
| Treaver | ooh | 08:39 |
| styx993 | it will never support directx, except through wine | 08:39 |
| Treaver | owned!thats new righ | 08:39 |
| kanhiya | how to install ubuntu simultaneously on several computer | 08:39 |
| kanhiya | :) | 08:39 |
| styx993 | jamil_1: it's under tools->addons, i think. it might be on the "plugins" tab or something | 08:40 |
| Treaver | thats recnt though right? | 08:40 |
| styx993 | opengl support? no, that's ancient | 08:40 |
| Treaver | i couldnt get opengl on 9.04 | 08:40 |
| styx993 | that's like unix stuff | 08:40 |
| Treaver | it=s\ 1 | 08:40 |
| styx993 | that must have been your video card or something. what kind do you have? | 08:40 |
| bastid_raZor | !automate | kanhiya | 08:40 |
| ubottu | kanhiya: Ways to automate installation of Ubuntu on multiple machines are described at https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/installation-guide/i386/automatic-install.html - See also !cloning | 08:40 |
| jamil_1 | styx993, from there I can only disable the plugin | 08:40 |
| charley__ | !cloning | 08:41 |
| ubottu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 08:41 |
| styx993 | jamil_1: hmm... have you tried sun/oracle's site? | 08:41 |

| julius_ | i gotta q. I have a laptop running an old debian distro. Id like to put ubuntu on it but the cdrom drive is busted. My connection is 26.4 k How can i use the cdrom i have a repository to install on the laptop? | 08:42 |
| styx993 | i'd look there a bit. they might have something | 08:42 |
| Treaver | wait | 08:42 |
| julius_ | through ssh or ftp or something | 08:42 |
| styx993 | julius_: is that your home connection, or just for the laptop? | 08:42 |
| kanhiya | thanks , i am going to check that :-D | 08:42 |
| julius_ | my home. im in the boonies | 08:42 |
| styx993 | hmmmm... i'm not quite sure | 08:43 |
| jamil_1 | styx993, I think it is more of an authentication problem | 08:43 |
| julius_ | the laptop will boot on lan | 08:43 |
| styx993 | jamil_1: see if you can find anything about authentication problems on the oracle site. if it's a problem with java itself, it might be there | 08:44 |

| gimpy5109 | I set a static IP in the interfaces file on a new 10.04 build and restarted networking but it is not taking effect and I don't know why. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? ifdown and ifup don't change it either. interfaces file: http://pastebin.com/vWHCvRbw | 08:45 |
| sejuk_ | x | 08:45 |
| styx993 | gimpy5109: networkmanager is probably managing the interface | 08:46 |
| styx993 | did you change the settings in that, or elsewhere? | 08:46 |
| gimpy5109 | styx993: This is an Ubuntu Server box, not desktop | 08:47 |
| Draconis | does ubuntu 10.04 come with a firewall I don't know about? Something keeps blocking port 22 even though its open | 08:47 |
| thune3 | gimpy5109: networkmanager should get out of the way of an interface described in interfaces file, but you may need to restart it to get it to take effect. | 08:47 |
| styx993 | i don't think i can really help you then | 08:47 |
| styx993 | gimpy5109: have you disabled dhcpd/dhcpcd? | 08:48 |
| styx993 | err i mean dhclient, not dhcpd | 08:48 |
| gimpy5109 | How do I disable it? | 08:49 |
| styx993 | hmm... try "sudo service dhclient stop" | 08:49 |
| gsal | hello, how can I show from a specific line of a file till the end | 08:49 |
| styx993 | do you know how many lines are in the file? | 08:49 |
| gimpy5109 | There is no service named dhclient or anything similar | 08:49 |
| faLUCE | hi. I have two monitors and two respective window managers opened for the same pc. On the first window manager, I cannot change the number of workspaces with the workspace switcher (it remains fixed to 4) while on the second I can do that. where could be the problem? thanks | 08:50 |
| styx993 | hmm... you could do "sudo killall dhclient" and then tell the interface the address, but it would do it again when the system started | 08:50 |
| styx993 | try "ps -A | grep dhclient" | 08:50 |
| bastid_raZor | Draconis: can you run netstat -napt on the box? | 08:51 |
| llutz | gsal: using sed p-option or tail | 08:51 |
| gimpy5109 | I killed dhclient, restarted networking, it still did not work. | 08:51 |
| thune3 | gimpy5109: ps aux | grep -i network is NetworkManager running? | 08:52 |
| gimpy5109 | Nope, it's not running | 08:52 |
| ne1 | how my web server will interect with deskop application? | 08:53 |
| styx993 | gimpy5109: you have to set the address now | 08:53 |
| ne1 | i want to execute a gui application usin apache-php | 08:54 |
| ikonia | ne1: no - you want to use the php command line or host it on a web server and use apache-php | 08:54 |
| madjoe | hello! is there a way to increase my wubi "partition"? | 08:54 |
| grifo74 | hello gdesklets dont work i use ubuntu 10.04???? | 08:54 |
| ne1 | my system is the server | 08:55 |
| ne1 | ikonia, in windows i've done it | 08:55 |
| gimpy5109 | styx993: An ifdown/ifup now works, but the interface did not come up by itself on reboot as it does with my <10.04 boxes. | 08:55 |
| ne1 | ikonia, by selecting the apache service and then allow it to connect with desktop services | 08:56 |
| styx993 | ne1: so you want to start an application using a php script? | 08:56 |
| ikonia | ne1: you're not using windows | 08:56 |
| thune3 | gimpy5109: you need to put eth0 in auto list of interfaces file to get it on boot | 08:56 |
| ne1 | yes styx993 | 08:56 |
| styx993 | gimpy5109: you need to figure out where dhclient is starting, i don't know off hand. dhclient takes over the interface | 08:56 |
| ikonia | ne1: you either have to launch it using hte command line tool "php" or host it on a webserver using apache/php | 08:56 |
| styx993 | ikonia: i don't think that's what he means | 08:57 |
| styx993 | ne1: i don't know php, but do you know how to start an external console program? | 08:57 |
| thune3 | gimpy5109: or just uncomment the # auto eth0 line | 08:58 |
| ne1 | styx993, i can execute a program using php but gui program is not launching | 08:58 |
| ne1 | styx993, for that we've to do some settings | 08:58 |
| ikonia | ne1: what is the applicaton you want to run | 08:58 |
| ne1 | styx993, i know these settings in windows but dont know in ubuntu | 08:58 |
| ne1 | ekiga | 08:58 |
| llutz | ne1: you'll need to specifiy DISPLAY and set xhost to allow your apache the use of the running x-session | 08:59 |
| ne1 | llutz, thanks but how? | 09:00 |
| ikonia | ne1: ekiga is what you owant to run ? | 09:00 |
| ne1 | yes | 09:00 |
| ikonia | ne1: it's in the ubuntu repos - you luanch it from the menu | 09:00 |
| ikonia | !info ekiga | 09:00 |
| ubottu | ekiga (source: ekiga): H.323 and SIP compatible VoIP client. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.2.6-1ubuntu1 (lucid), package size 1828 kB, installed size 16240 kB | 09:00 |
| ikonia | ne1: open the package manager and search for ekiga and install it | 09:00 |
| styx_ | ikonia: i don't think that's what he means | 09:01 |
| ikonia | ne1: you'll get a menu option from your applications to allow it to run | 09:01 |
| ikonia | styx_: ???? he wants to run ekiga - hard to get much clearer than that | 09:01 |
| styx_ | ne1: you want to use a php script to run something, right? | 09:01 |
| ne1 | ikonia, you are not understanding my problem | 09:01 |
| ikonia | ne1: do you want to run ekiga yes/no | 09:01 |
| styx_ | ikonia: he wants to start it from a php script | 09:01 |
| ikonia | in that case he needs to join ##php to work through his script | 09:02 |
| ne1 | yes styx_ | 09:02 |
| ne1 | llutz, how can i? | 09:02 |
| ikonia | ne1: php scripting support is in the channel ##php | 09:03 |
| styx_ | all right, you can use the exec command to start it. it will return a string, and take a string (the program name) | 09:03 |
| styx_ | you might have to set the DISPLAY variable (which is probably ":0.0") | 09:03 |
| ne1 | exec will execute a program but not gui applications | 09:03 |
| llutz | ne1: try "xhost +localhost" | 09:04 |
| ikonia | ne1: you need to join ##php for php script support | 09:04 |
| styx_ | ikonia: we can help him here | 09:04 |
| ne1 | for that we've to do some settings like allow server to use deskop services | 09:04 |
| styx_ | ne1: you just need to set DISPLAY | 09:04 |
| ikonia | styx_: php scripting support is in the channel ##php | 09:04 |
| llutz | styx_: its offtopic here, so > ##php | 09:04 |
| styx_ | it's not a difficult question | 09:04 |
| ikonia | styx_: doesn't matter how hard it is | 09:05 |
| styx_ | ne1: it's something like putenv("DISPLAY=\":0.0\""); exec("ekiga"); | 09:05 |

| picard1421 | what distribution of linux would i want to look for if i just wanted to run mp3blaster and w3m? | 09:32 |
| styx993 | etyrnal: could you try telnet or rsh? | 09:32 |
| picard1421 | i would literally want w3m, mp3blaster, and openVPN for internet... that isa ll i would need.. | 09:33 |
| Vroomfondle | picard1421: Debian will do the job. | 09:33 |
| Vroomfondle | hell, DSL will probably do the job with a bit of tweaking | 09:33 |
| picard1421 | how close is debian to | 09:33 |
| picard1421 | ubuntu i know its debian based.. but the calls and what not? | 09:33 |
| styx993 | you could probably do it with slackware, too. you'd have to cut out a ton of crap, though | 09:33 |
| Vroomfondle | you mean the commands? they're largely the same. | 09:33 |
| picard1421 | why debian over ubuntu? | 09:34 |
| s7 | styx993, would password protection be possible with CUPS? | 09:34 |

| Vroomfondle | *shrug* Debian's base install is a bit smaller, that's all. Ubuntu would do the job as well but would likely install a lot more stuff you don't need (though you can always remove it later) | 09:34 |

| W4HBY | HI | 09:35 |
| picard1421 | ohhh there would be one more feature.. is there anything i would i need to install.. like a "windows" program.. basically i want to switch between panes.. one pane as a certain webrowser, next pane is another webpage, next pane is media player etc.. is this possible? | 09:35 |
| W4HBY | how to reach to boot linux | 09:36 |
| W4HBY | in ubuntu 10.4 | 09:36 |
| SwedeMike | !details | W4HBY | 09:37 |
| styx993 | picard1421: try wm2 or something | 09:37 |
| ubottu | W4HBY: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 09:37 |
| W4HBY | ok | 09:37 |
| Vroomfondle | picard1421: you mean virtual desktops? | 09:37 |
| picard1421 | no not really | 09:37 |
| picard1421 | like window panes | 09:37 |
| styx993 | s7: you can probably get a module or something for it. i haven't used cups before, but i read that there's modules | 09:37 |
| picard1421 | so like i can swtich between apps | 09:37 |
| picard1421 | easily.. swtich betwenn music player.. | 09:37 |
| picard1421 | tabbed internet | 09:37 |
| picard1421 | etc.. | 09:38 |
| styx993 | picard1421: try dwm or wmii | 09:38 |
| thune3 | picard1421: i've used ratpoison, which is a wm where every window is fullscreen and you navigate a stack of them. Side by side is possible. | 09:38 |
| Vroomfondle | picard1421: wmii, dwm, ion will do that. | 09:38 |
| W4HBY | I have a problem with password ubuntu 10.4 | 09:38 |
| Vroomfondle | or... alt-tab ;) | 09:38 |
| picard1421 | ratpoision.. dwm wmii ? whats the differences? | 09:38 |
| styx993 | W4HBY: what kind of problem? | 09:38 |
| Vroomfondle | picard1421: it'll be difficult to explain all the differences over IRC. Best to google for their web sites and read the manuals. Basically they're all tiling window managers. | 09:39 |
| picard1421 | also does mp3blaster support flac? | 09:40 |
| picard1421 | is there a better command line music player? | 09:40 |
| W4HBY | forgot password | 09:40 |
| styx993 | picard1421: try mpd | 09:40 |
| styx993 | W4HBY: did you forget all the passwords to your system? | 09:41 |
| etyrnal | styx993, i don't think they are enabled, but lemme check | 09:41 |
| bullgard | What tool tests the functionality of one's own swap partition? | 09:41 |
| styx993 | bullgard: how do you mean? | 09:42 |
| thune3 | bullgard: ^ | 09:42 |
| picard1421 | i have read the mp3blaster is easier to use... it seems the mpd is more of a server than a player? | 09:42 |
| bullgard | styx993, thune3 A function test for one's own swap partition is sought. | 09:43 |
| styx993 | mpd is a server that works as a player. you put a frontend (such as mpc) on it, and you have a very nice player. you don't have to keep a window open or anything | 09:43 |
| styx993 | you could also use moc | 09:43 |
| styx993 | well, mocp is the command name | 09:43 |
| styx993 | bullgard: what kind of function test? | 09:43 |
| etyrnal | styx993, no telnet, no rsh | 09:44 |
| bullgard | styx993: A yes-no function test. | 09:44 |
| thune3 | bullgard: yes-no test of what? do you suspect a problem with the physical swap partition? | 09:44 |
| styx993 | etyrnal: the only way would be to make it not headless anymore, then | 09:44 |
| thune3 | bullgard: yes would mean what? no would mean what? | 09:45 |
| picard1421 | does mp3blaster work with | 09:45 |
| picard1421 | flac? or no? | 09:46 |
| bullgard | thune3: Yes, I do suspect a problem with my swap partition. -- I do not know what you mean by a "physical swap partition" though. | 09:46 |
| styx993 | picard1421: check the website. if it does, it will say | 09:46 |
| styx993 | bullgard: do you think it's a problem with the disk? | 09:46 |
| bullgard | thune3: "Yes" would mean: "It does function." -- "No" would mean: "It does not function." | 09:47 |
| thune3 | bullgard: you just went circular. | 09:47 |
| W4HBY | yes for my system | 09:47 |
| thune3 | bullgard: a read-write badblocks check of unmounted swap partition should provide an integrity check. | 09:47 |
| bullgard | thune3: And you did not give a resonable answer to my question. | 09:48 |
| styx993 | W4HBY: back up your files and reinstall everything. that's all you can do, i believe | 09:48 |
| styx993 | bullgard: you haven't asked a reasonable question | 09:48 |
| styx993 | exactly what kind of test do you want, bullgard? | 09:48 |
| bullgard | thune3: I did not speak about an integrity check and I do not mean such a check. | 09:49 |
| sinha | hi everyone... newbie question here: does the stock ubuntu 10.04 update the clamav db on its own? | 09:49 |
| styx993 | bullgard: then what kind of test do you want? | 09:49 |
| llutz | bullgard: there is nothing like "fsck.swap" | 09:49 |
| W4HBY | how i can't back up my files with out password | 09:49 |
| thune3 | bullgard: " Yes, I do suspect a problem with my swap partition." was the most specific info you gave, and my answer wast toward that information. | 09:49 |
| styx993 | W4HBY: start using your ubuntu install livecd or something | 09:49 |
| W4HBY | ok and then | 09:50 |
| styx993 | then you reinstall everything | 09:50 |
| styx993 | i am assuming that you are using shadow passwords, which is the default | 09:50 |
| styx993 | and i don't know why you'd want to use anything else | 09:51 |
| sinha | does the stock ubuntu 10.04 update the clamav db on its own? | 09:51 |
| styx993 | sinha: stock ubuntu doesn't come with clamav | 09:51 |
| sinha | neone can help? | 09:51 |
| thune3 | bullgard: maybe it would help if you described the problem you are trying to solve with a "check" | 09:52 |
| joschi | bullgard: `cat /proc/swaps` and read `man swapon` | 09:53 |
| bullgard | thune3: Please think about a more general situation. a read-write badblocks check of an unmounted swap partition will only give a limited result in terms of the function of my swap partition in my Ubuntu 10.04 computer. | 09:53 |
| s7 | hello styx993, what did u mean by "set mode +i" | 09:53 |
| sinha | styx993:oh sorry,,, i didn't mean stock... i mean if i install it from the official repo will the virus db update be automatic? | 09:53 |
| styx993 | s7: what? | 09:53 |
| Misterio | sinha: you mean clamav? | 09:53 |
| sinha | Misterio:yep... | 09:54 |

| W4HBY | i told you i forget my password in ubuntu 10.4 also i can't found the Grab . | 10:00 |
| joschi | W4HBY: add init=/bin/bash to the kernel parameters in grub, then boot, mount your partitions, run `passwd $USERNAME` and set your new password | 10:01 |
| styx993 | joschi: brilliant. i never would have thought of that | 10:01 |

| W4HBY | also i not found the grub | 10:02 |
| joschi | W4HBY: in the grub menu, select your Ubuntu entry and press 'e' (or ctrl-e?) | 10:02 |
| styx993 | W4HBY: you hold shift while you boot, i believe | 10:02 |

| Martin_vW | Hi. I'm afraid I've messed up my Ubuntu with proposed updates; many things like the session indicator applet now keep on crashing. I've disabled the repo, but I'm not sure how to downgrade the affected packages. I can identify obsolete packages with aptitude search '~o', but is there a way to identify packages that are too new compared to the repos? | 10:18 |
| Harley | okay dj | 10:18 |
| Harley | sorry | 10:18 |
| Harley | i was seeing what it would do | 10:18 |
| styx993 | Martin_vW: if you know the full version, you can do something like "sudo apt-get install package=package-1.2.3" | 10:19 |
| zus | anyone using compiz config setting s manager? | 10:19 |

| zus | hit super b | 10:20 |
| styx993 | hmm... | 10:20 |
| Martin_vW | styx993: I'd try to reinstall all affected packages, but I don't know how to identify them all. I can check single packages with apt-cache policy packagename (the package will have a /var/lib/dpkg/status entry higher than the repo entry), but not all packages at once. | 10:20 |
| dj_ | I use to run it but in lucid I cannot install cause I do not have pythoin 2.5 and I cannot get pythoin 2.5 either | 10:21 |

| zus | Styx993, hit super m i mean | 10:21 |
| styx993 | o_o that just inverted the colors on my screen lol | 10:22 |
| styx993 | wow, that's seizure-inducing kinda stuff | 10:22 |
| styx993 | tip: if you're epileptic, don't hold super-m with the "negative" option | 10:22 |
| zus | yeah that was my default i changed that to open magnify but now it opens a menu under the envelope up top panel | 10:22 |
| zus | when i ope CCSM it still has magnify ticked | 10:23 |
| zus | and in CCSM in the windows management i have group windows check and its not working!!!! | 10:24 |
| zebulon_ | wow, what other super key combinations are there? | 10:24 |
| styx993 | zus, have you poked around in the gnome stuff? it could have grabbed the key or something | 10:24 |
| zus | i cant find where it is to disable it which is whay im asking | 10:25 |
| styx993 | zus: have you checked outside of ccsm? | 10:25 |
| zus | maybe some one might have had the same issue,.... apparently not | 10:25 |

| Beyecixramd | xeviox: sometimes it happens, it's completely normal | 10:38 |
| Beyecixramd | xeviox: open implementations tend to lack some things, think about Office vs OpenOffice | 10:38 |
| xeviox | should I deinstall the openjdk before installing the standard one (which I don't get in the repos) | 10:38 |
| Beyecixramd | xeviox: even then, i prefer OpenJDK | 10:38 |

| ranjan | is there any way by which we can make our dialup modem to make phone calls in linux?? | 10:42 |
| Beyecixramd | ranjan: i think asterisk does that | 10:43 |
| manje | hi there. in the past, i've been able to copy .deb files into /var/cache/apt/archives from one host onto another, preventing re-downloading of the packages, but trying to do so now, from 9.10 to 10.04 makes no difference. i.e. the upgrade process is downloading all the packages again. has anything changed? | 10:43 |
| ranjan | Beyecixramd, without asterisk can we atleast dial to another phone/ | 10:43 |
| Beyecixramd | ranjan: are you asking, or is that a sentence? | 10:43 |
| ranjan | Beyecixramd, i am asking :) | 10:44 |
| xeviox | the jdk from is not in the repos, right? | 10:44 |
| Beyecixramd | manje: well, you need Lucid packages | 10:44 |

| Beyecixramd | manje: maybe there's a different dir, i'm not sure | 10:45 |
| Beyecixramd | ranjan: Network Manager should do it (nm-applet) | 10:45 |
| iceroot | manje: have a look at apt-proxy | 10:45 |
| Beyecixramd | ranjan: in case it doesn't, i believe gnome-ppp | 10:46 |
| manje | thanks iceroot, will do | 10:46 |
| iceroot | manje: one host is downloading the packages, on the other hosts you change /etc/apt/sources.list so the adresse of the server which is running apt-proxy | 10:46 |

| ubottu | xeviox: To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java. For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 11:02 |

| alex88 | Beyecixramd: nothing else then normal apps, i've already checked | 11:03 |
| Beyecixramd | alex88: is your computer OEM? | 11:03 |
| Beyecixramd | alex88: exactly what document does it open? | 11:04 |
| Beyecixramd | alex88: and... has it always been acting that way? | 11:04 |
| xeviox | iceroot: thanks, works like a charme ;) | 11:04 |
| alex88 | Beyecixramd: nope, i've installed it.. a pdf of my school that i've opened some days ago | 11:04 |
| alex88 | Beyecixramd: no, just from yesterday | 11:04 |
| Beyecixramd | alex88: maybe it's because you shutdown before closing the file | 11:04 |
| xeviox | iceroot: hopefully there is no problem with the binary package I installed (from the sun site) | 11:04 |
| alex88 | Beyecixramd: i've tried to close everything and logout-login, same thing | 11:05 |
| iceroot | xeviox: dont know, always use the repo instead of downloaded files | 11:05 |
| Beyecixramd | alex88: the last resource would be to uninstall the pdf viewer, do you need it? | 11:05 |
| xeviox | iceroot: I try, but I couldn't find it, so I thought ok lets use the installer instead .. | 11:05 |
| MaRk-I | alex88: check .. system/preferences,startup programs in the "options" tab make sure it's not checked (there's only 1 option there) | 11:05 |
| Beyecixramd | alex88: maybe you could use something else instead | 11:05 |
| alex88 | Beyecixramd: it also opens 2 folders... | 11:06 |

| ilcham | mybe | 11:48 |
| ilcham | maybe | 11:48 |
| revarr | ilcham: can you adjust your screens brightness? | 11:48 |
| erUSUL | haly: maybe it is only for launching the binaries with the correct args and all; once running it detachs from the shell annd hence is not killen when the shell is killed ? reaally dunno | 11:49 |
| haly | erUSUL ok thanx | 11:49 |
| ilcham | revarr: yes i can | 11:50 |
| revarr | okay when you installed your ubuntu could you always change your brightness | 11:50 |
| revarr | ilcham: when you installed your os could you always change your brightness? | 11:51 |
| revarr | ilcham: if so then why am I having trouble with my ubuntu 10.4 | 11:51 |
| ilcham | you try pressing the keys on the keyboard to increase the brightness on your pc | 11:54 |
| Halabund_ | hi | 11:54 |
| Halabund_ | ever since i upgraded to lucid, dns lookups are unusably slow | 11:55 |
| Halabund_ | any idea why / how to fix it? | 11:55 |
| revarr | ilcham: . . . yes, I tried hotkeys and all the other ways | 11:55 |
| === Halabund_ is now known as Halabund | ||
| jake__ | ilcham, Brightness is something that is broken in the kernel at this moment in time. It is the same in Fedora too. You'll just have to live with it for a while I'm afraid | 11:56 |
| jake__ | perhaps that should have been pointed at revarr | 11:56 |
| logan_ | Hi | 11:56 |
| logan_ | How can i run yahoo messenger in ubuntu10.04 | 11:57 |
| jepong | logan_, why do you need YM? | 11:57 |
| revarr | jake__: then how is ilcham's os allow him to change his/hers? | 11:58 |
| logan_ | i have some frens on it and we used to do video chat on that | 11:58 |
| logan_ | is there any way | 11:58 |
| jepong | i see... have you take a look at a package called gyachi? | 11:58 |
| Oer | empathy, pidgin, can handle yahoo messenger and many services | 11:59 |
| joschi | logan_: use pidgin. it supports YIM | 11:59 |
| logan_ | i tried it with pidgin and empathy | 11:59 |
| jepong | logan_, try gyachi... it supports yahoo video and voice | 11:59 |
| logan_ | but pidgin and empathy does not provide you with the option of video chat | 11:59 |
| jepong | UI not good but works well | 11:59 |
| logan_ | cool | 11:59 |
| paulstephensonuk | p | 11:59 |
| logan_ | i will look for gyachi | 12:00 |
| logan_ | :) | 12:00 |
| jepong | gyachi.sourceforge.net | 12:00 |
| logan_ | thnx jepong for the link | 12:00 |
| mreichelt | hi there | 12:00 |
| ilcham | you can see my os on my facebook | 12:01 |
| jepong | no problem logan_ | 12:01 |
| ilcham | Ilcham Su | 12:01 |
| paulstephensonuk | I think if you have a compatible webcam you can do video chat on pidgin between linux systems | 12:01 |
| FloodBot2 | !netsplit | 12:01 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 12:01 |
| revarr | I really hope I did not just waste all that time trying to fix this stupid brightness for nothing | 12:01 |
| ilcham | Ilcham Su < my fb | 12:02 |
| mreichelt | I think I have discovered a pretty severe bug in Ubuntu 10.04: sometimes when I click on the [x] to close a window the window itself is not closed, but the window behind (!) the current window is closed | 12:02 |
| mreichelt | has anybody seen something like this? | 12:02 |
| gogeta | lol a netsplit | 12:04 |
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: that's pretty weird | 12:05 |
| fake51 | anyone know how the mta is invoked when sending mail using mail/mutt? I've got a script listening on port 25 on localhost but it's completely bypassed | 12:05 |
| mreichelt | Beyecixramd, yes it is :-/ | 12:05 |
| joschi | fake51: usually through /usr/sbin/sendmail | 12:05 |
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: maybe you've got an error, which makes, when you close the dialog box, kill the program? | 12:05 |
| joschi | fake51: although mutt could directly use a smtp server | 12:05 |
| mreichelt | no | 12:05 |
| mreichelt | example: I have firefox open and a video in front | 12:05 |
| mreichelt | both windows are maximized | 12:06 |
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: are you using desktop effects? (AKA Compiz) | 12:06 |
| === lag is now known as Guest14059 | ||
| fake51 | joschi, thanks, will have a look at that. What gets me is that I'm using php to test things and the setup should be to use localhost port 25 ... | 12:06 |
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: or maybe the problem is that you're out of RAM, how much you've got? | 12:06 |
| mreichelt | then I want to close the video by pressing [x], but instead Firefox is asking me to save the tabs | 12:06 |
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: both RAM and Swap, if you know the size of both | 12:06 |
| logan_ | I have downloaded gyachi now not able to figure out how to install it | 12:06 |
| mreichelt | Beyecixramd, I got plenty of RAM ;) | 12:06 |
| mreichelt | 4GB / 4GB | 12:07 |
| mreichelt | and no, Compiz is deactivated | 12:07 |
| Beyecixramd | logan_: install Gyachi from the Ubuntu Software Center / Synaptic / apt-get | 12:07 |
| joschi | fake51: see sendmail_path in php.ini | 12:07 |
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: can i ask you to enable it, please? | 12:07 |
| mreichelt | k | 12:08 |
| Beyecixramd | logan_: anyways... i recommend you Pidgin instead | 12:08 |
| Beyecixramd | logan_: are you new to Linux/Ubuntu? | 12:08 |
| mreichelt | Beyecixramd, doesn't work with my Intel GFX here | 12:08 |
| === Guest14059 is now known as _lag | ||
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: okay, press Alt+F2 and type in "gconf-editor" | 12:08 |
| Beyecixramd | and press enter (obviously) | 12:08 |
| paulstephensonuk | logan_ from my experience you can vid and voice chat from linux system to linux system on googletalk or XMPP if you have the right cam set up | 12:09 |
| ugliefrog | heres my problem.....randomly my keyboard and mouse go WONKY....mouse cursor can be moved around right clik wont work.... the text line that looks like this | flashes very fast in a window as if there is a key stuck....i have to unplug and plug back in to get them to work agan | 12:09 |
| paulstephensonuk | on pidgin | 12:09 |
| mreichelt | k | 12:09 |
| gogeta | paulstephensonuk: skype all platforms | 12:09 |
| paulstephensonuk | but for some reason not from linux to windows | 12:09 |
| paulstephensonuk | I have skype | 12:09 |
| paulstephensonuk | just trying to help logan_ | 12:10 |
| Beyecixramd | ugliefrog: are you using a generic mouse/keyboard, or do you have special / expensive hardware? | 12:10 |
| Beyecixramd | gogeta: Skype for Linux SUCKS, period | 12:10 |
| Beyecixramd | gogeta: until they fix it, you can't really recommend it | 12:10 |
| ugliefrog | Beyecixramd, im using a logitech mouse/keyboard is a nice one tho | 12:10 |
| gogeta | Beyecixramd: works fine on my setup | 12:10 |
| paulstephensonuk | i have vid and voice working through pidgin and skype with no problems on ubuntu | 12:11 |
| mreichelt | Beyecixramd, and then? | 12:11 |
| Beyecixramd | gogeta: can you make three video calls, for example, one after another? | 12:11 |
| gogeta | Beyecixramd: why would i | 12:11 |
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: search for "metacity" and mark the two check boxes | 12:11 |
| MaRk-I | logan_: if you downloaded gyachi source you have to compile and there's alot of dependencies, not sure if it's working but look up gyachi PPA | 12:11 |
| Beyecixramd | gogeta: i mean if you're able to do that | 12:11 |
| === brebrebrebre is now known as |_ocke | ||
| ugliefrog | Beyecixramd, my keyboard is a Razer Lycosa | 12:11 |
| Beyecixramd | gogeta: for me, Skype only works on the first videocall, then, in the next video call, freezes, or doesn't show video | 12:12 |
| Beyecixramd | gogeta: sometimes the audio lags, i can't call people... | 12:12 |
| logan_ | thnx mark | 12:12 |
| Beyecixramd | gogeta: and believe me, i'm not the only one with issues | 12:12 |
| gogeta | Beyecixramd: sounds like your camra crashed | 12:12 |
| Beyecixramd | ugliefrog: wireless? | 12:12 |
| Beyecixramd | gogeta: sounds like not | 12:12 |
| ugliefrog | Beyecixramd, no, they are wired | 12:12 |
| gogeta | paulstephensonuk: my dammed monoter lost red yesterday :( | 12:13 |
| MaRk-I | logan_: also if you want to use voice (which only works in rooms not in private) make sure you install the w32codecs or get the TSP codecs | 12:13 |
| Beyecixramd | gogeta: also, for the record, i can make as many videocalls as i please with Empathy, and Pidgin, abosolutely no issues, or lags, or anything | 12:13 |
| logan_ | hmm | 12:13 |
| logan_ | what about video chat??? | 12:13 |
| mreichelt | Beyecixramd, which two checkboxes? | 12:14 |
| MaRk-I | webcam works if your cam is supported | 12:14 |
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: on the search box, you should have two check boxes | 12:14 |
| gogeta | Beyecixramd: well with my colors all screwy atm im not even using the machine for mutch | 12:14 |
| Sary | Hello Ubuntu ;) | 12:14 |
| mreichelt | ah, ok | 12:14 |
| Beyecixramd | hello Sary :D | 12:14 |
| logan_ | and how can i figure that out.... whether the cam is working or not | 12:14 |
| gogeta | Beyecixramd: lost red on the rgb | 12:14 |
| logan_ | supported | 12:15 |
| Sary | Why My Ubuntu is faster than Windows 7 ? | 12:15 |
| MaRk-I | logan_: try cheese | 12:15 |
| Beyecixramd | gogeta: lol | 12:15 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: because UBUNTU is actually FASTER than Windows | 12:15 |
| logan_ | :D | 12:15 |
| gogeta | Beyecixramd: its the monoter not the video card connected it to my laptop same result | 12:15 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: also, no viruses, no worms, no crapware... | 12:15 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: ;) | 12:15 |
| logan_ | i mean supported | 12:15 |
| masterk | i thought they ran test and figured out windows 7 was as fast or faster | 12:15 |
| MaRk-I | logan_: there's a program called "cheese" like webcam booth | 12:16 |
| Beyecixramd | masterk: really depends, but in a standard and recommended setup (you know, with Firewall, Antivirus, etc) Ubuntu is way faster | 12:16 |
| Sary | since i used Ubuntu/Linux , i don't really remember how many times did i make a restart | 12:16 |
| logan_ | ok | 12:16 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: you restarted too much, or too little? | 12:16 |
| gogeta | Beyecixramd: seond one this year to lose a color last one lost green | 12:16 |
| Sary | To little , | 12:16 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: :) and you're not nagged by screens that force you to restart after an update | 12:17 |
| Beyecixramd | gogeta: lol, that sounds pretty bad | 12:17 |
| Beyecixramd | gogeta: you should replace it, i can't live with colors lacking on my screen, seriously xD | 12:17 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: Yep . i hate that blue Screen | 12:17 |
| mreichelt | Beyecixramd, ok, I have searched for metacity | 12:17 |
| gogeta | Beyecixramd: lol it just dies last night | 12:17 |
| mreichelt | what's next? | 12:17 |
| gogeta | died | 12:17 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: in Linux, you sometimes have to restart, but Ubuntu NEVER forces you to do so, unlike Windows Update, in which you can only tell it to delay for 3 hours max | 12:18 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: if you're away from your computer, Windows will restart itself if needed and you lose all your work :D | 12:18 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: Thats right :) | 12:18 |
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: now search for "compositing manager" | 12:18 |
| Jinxed- | How could I check my computer hardware specs in ubuntu | 12:18 |
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: or something like that, in the search results | 12:18 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: lol | 12:18 |
| mreichelt | yep | 12:18 |
| mreichelt | got it | 12:19 |
| Beyecixramd | Jinxed-: there's a tool, go to system > administration > hardware checker or something | 12:19 |

| gogeta | Beyecixramd: gotta go get a new monoter annoying being this one is only a year old at least my old one was 10 years old before it died | 12:20 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: i am still doing so , just cuz i need to use the damin itunes | 12:20 |
| gogeta | Beyecixramd: they dont make them like they used to | 12:20 |
| Beyecixramd | nio: don't want to sound rude, but this channel is for asking Ubuntu questions, do you have any issues i can help you out with? otherwise, i would like you to go to #Ubuntu-offtopic, thank you | 12:21 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: why? do you have an iPod? | 12:21 |
| nio | i downloaded ubuntu 10.04lts and install on my home pc | 12:21 |
| Beyecixramd | nio: good :) do you like it? | 12:21 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: i have an Ipad along with 2 iphones | 12:21 |
| nio | i want to remove plymouth splash and use usplash is it possible | 12:21 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: Ubuntu supports i-hardware in 10.04 out of the box | 12:21 |
| Beyecixramd | nio: i'm afraid that's not possible, why would you want to do that? | 12:22 |
| karlo | where I can find gedit's plugin directory ? | 12:22 |
| Beyecixramd | karlo: man gedit? | 12:22 |
| nio | actually i could not understand plymouth and no proper tutorial is there for the plymouth | 12:22 |
| karlo | I gonna try that | 12:23 |
| Beyecixramd | nio: want me to link you to a great Plymouth tutorial? | 12:23 |
| nio | yep | 12:23 |
| mreichelt | Beyecixramd, check compositing_manager? | 12:23 |
| Beyecixramd | nio: i strongly recommend Plymouth over usplash, or anything else, it's more customizable, faster, more flexible, and has way more features | 12:23 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: i didn't find an Alternative for itunes yet | 12:23 |
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: yes please | 12:23 |
| mreichelt | Beyecixramd, ok | 12:23 |
| mreichelt | and now wait for the error to occur again? | 12:24 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: well, you have Amarok, it's the best of the music players. The best you can find. PERIOD | 12:24 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: point me to that Alternative ;) | 12:24 |
| Beyecixramd | mreichelt: well, yes | 12:24 |
| Jinxed- | How does one tell which nvidia driver they should enable? | 12:24 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: amarok? | 12:24 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: want to install? | 12:24 |
| mreichelt | Beyecixramd, ok - thanks up to here :) | 12:24 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: alright i'll check it out ;) Thanks a bunch | 12:24 |
| nio | and tell me whether this plymouth since it starts with the kernel level : does it make any change to the core program when loaded in the ram | 12:24 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: it's apt-get install amarok ;) | 12:25 |
| Beyecixramd | nio: you have to rebuild the kernel | 12:25 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: yeah :P | 12:25 |
| MaRk-I | karlo: try /usr/share/gedit-2/plugins | 12:25 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: Amarok, is QT, for KDE, tho. You have Banshee which IMHO is the best for GTK, but everyone has their opinions | 12:25 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: Yeah Yeah | 12:25 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: i'll test both | 12:26 |
| karlo | I wanna install plugin for gedit... and for that I must put that plugin in gedit's plugin directory... where is that directory ? | 12:26 |
| nio | yes i see that | 12:26 |
| Beyecixramd | nio: anotherubuntu.blogspot.com/2009/03/jaunty-plymouth-ppa-plugin-development.html | 12:26 |
| nio | you like plymouth | 12:26 |
| Beyecixramd | nio: i'm actually a plymouth theme. Yes, i love it. It's way more easy than with previous boot screen engines | 12:26 |
| Beyecixramd | themer* | 12:26 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: if thing works with my Apple Products , i'll dump that Windows .. So rest in peace Maicro$oft | 12:27 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: yeah, goodbye to the virus hell :P | 12:27 |
| karlo | I wanna install plugin for gedit... and for that I must put that plugin in gedit's plugin directory... where is that directory ? | 12:27 |
| Beyecixramd | karlo: you have been answered already | 12:27 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: And thats for Ever ;) | 12:28 |
| nio | hadn't checked with the old machine what happens when the plymouth fails does it swith back to text mode . i think the plymouth still is in development phase | 12:28 |
| karlo | but with man gedit command I didn't get answer | 12:28 |
| Beyecixramd | nio: , no the problem is that it heavily relies on the graphics card to do the work | 12:29 |
| MaRk-I | karlo: try /usr/share/gedit-2/plugins <<<< last time i'm not repeating | 12:29 |
| Beyecixramd | nio: you need a modern intel / ATi / nVidia, or sometimes it won't work | 12:29 |
| godim | some1 can tell me where i get new themes and graphic applications for ubuntu? | 12:29 |
| karlo | ok | 12:29 |
| Sary | Ubuntu Software Center looks Dope ;) | 12:29 |
| shell-lord | godim, good question | 12:29 |
| Beyecixramd | nio: you can also use the framebuffer also, it should work with all cards | 12:29 |
| shell-lord | sary, good to offtopic... | 12:29 |

| xpeditor | hey guys i'm running Ubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx and i am wondering if there is a way to make it so that when i plug in my headphones output is routed to only my headphones and when they are removed output is routed to the speakers. As it stands output is routed to both of them | 12:34 |
| godim | Beyecixramd, but the first, i can | 12:34 |
| Beyecixramd | xpeditor: as far as i know, your audio card should do that, if it doesn't, i'm afraid you can't do that | 12:34 |
| Beyecixramd | godim: sure, search for that theme in the link i gave you before | 12:35 |

| s3r3n1t7_ | owd95, it's not likely you are actually using that much ram. A lot is cached so the next time a program would be started it's a lot quicker. Compare the first time you use firefox with the next start of firefox for example. | 12:53 |

| Beyecixramd | mintux: sudo mount /path/to/device /where/you/want/to/mount/it | 12:57 |
| Beyecixramd | mintux: because you're trying to run a command as root (Administrator, in Windows) that would stop you if the computer is not yours | 12:58 |
| mintux | Beyecixramd: so another user can not mount because they need root password | 12:58 |

| Beyecixramd | dury: search "adobe linux download flash" | 13:14 |
| Lalon | so i cant use proxy if i use linux? | 13:14 |
| Lalon | i mean in irc clients | 13:14 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: i told you, you can use proxies in XChat | 13:14 |
| dury | how do I know which one is installed? | 13:14 |
| Misterio | Lalon: You can use proxy with them | 13:14 |
| Atsy | howdy | 13:14 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: even using nm-applet, you can set up a firewall system-wide | 13:14 |
| abhijain | Beyecixramd: any idea about pdf edit on ubuntu | 13:14 |
| rafaek | !nas | 13:14 |
| Misterio | Lalon: Most of them can be configurated to use it | 13:14 |
| Lalon | Beyecixramd: wow ! with the same command that i used for mirc? | 13:15 |
| Lalon | well im using kvirc but cant use proxy easily what i did in mirc | 13:15 |
| sectroyer | Hi. How can I turn of X server temporarly in ubuntu 10.4 ? | 13:15 |
| rafaek | <ubottu>Sorry, I don't know anything about nas | 13:15 |
| Beyecixramd | abhijain: you have two tools i recommend, the first is the OpenOffice suite. Writer and Draw can import PDF files. The other one is called Xournal, you can make annotations and etc... | 13:15 |
| Lalon | i just this command for mirc ./firewall on ip:port | 13:15 |
| rafaek | heheh the bot dont know anything about nas | 13:15 |
| Sary | tara: then you can find some nice login screen here / http://gnome-look.org/ | 13:15 |
| Lalon | but it doesnt work here | 13:15 |
| dury | Beyecixramd: how do I know which one is installed? | 13:15 |
| Misterio | Lalon: They use different commands | 13:15 |
| aguitel | i have scanner epson cx5600 ,anyone know to install this in ubuntu lucid? | 13:15 |
| bazhang | rafaek, /msg ubottu please | 13:15 |
| Beyecixramd | abhijain: but for editing files i recommend you the .odt format. OpenOffice.org Writer exports .odt files by defauly | 13:16 |
| josephseraos | does anyone program Java? | 13:16 |
| Lalon | Misterio: can u tell me the command bro | 13:16 |
| markitoxs | on an acer 5160z (intel ICH7 )i suddenly get no sound, lshw shows the hardweare is there, however aplay -l says no soundcards are detected, cat /proc/asound/cards also shows it, any ideas on how to troubleshoot this? | 13:16 |
| Sary | tara: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy | 13:16 |
| Beyecixramd | dury: you don't have any flash plugin installed | 13:16 |
| Misterio | Lalon: Configurating a proxy is easier that using /firewall and that things. | 13:16 |
| Misterio | Lalon: And, what irc client are you using? | 13:16 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: GDM themes are not supported anymore since Ubuntu Jaunty :( | 13:16 |
| Lalon | Misterio: how to do thta in kvirc can u tell me | 13:16 |
| Lalon | kvirc | 13:16 |
| Misterio | meh, never used it :P | 13:16 |
| Lalon | lol | 13:16 |
| Lalon | Misterio: which one u using | 13:17 |
| Misterio | Lalon: irssi | 13:17 |
| Lalon | im gonna download that | 13:17 |
| dury | Beyecixramd: I guess there is... but the question is how do I know which one is installed? | 13:17 |
| Lalon | irssi same like mirc? | 13:17 |
| Sary | bazhang: Pm please | 13:17 |
| Edessa | . | 13:17 |
| Misterio | Lalon: I don't recommend irssi to you, it's terminal based | 13:17 |
| Lalon | omg | 13:17 |
| bazhang | Sary, sure | 13:17 |
| Beyecixramd | dury by default there isn't Flash installed. If you have flash, you have Adobe Flash, but you installed it manually | 13:17 |
| Sary | Xchat is fine | 13:17 |
| abhijain | Beyecixramd: what abt pdf edit ? | 13:17 |
| sectroyer | There is no way to "kill X" ? | 13:17 |
| Indy_ | Hi | 13:17 |
| Lalon | Sary: really | 13:17 |
| Sary | you can even have themes for Xchat | 13:18 |
| Lalon | then i might check xchat | 13:18 |
| Beyecixramd | abhijain: what do you mean by pdf edit? | 13:18 |
| Lalon | what u guys say? | 13:18 |
| Beyecixramd | sectroyer: well, log off and log back in | 13:18 |
| Misterio | Lalon: Yes, xchat is like mirc, I used it when I was newby | 13:18 |
| Indy_ | How do I setup application access policies | 13:18 |
| Sary | Lalon: Yep | 13:18 |
| MaRk-I | abhijain: go to software center and in search type pdf editor | 13:18 |
| Lalon | Sary: kvirc has themes too | 13:18 |
| Lalon | Misterio: lol so now ur expert | 13:18 |
| Beyecixramd | sectroyer also, you can enable Ctrl + Alt + Backspace, if you enable that shortcut | 13:18 |
| Lalon | right | 13:18 |
| Lalon | :P | 13:18 |
| Sary | Lalon: oh Okay | 13:18 |
| Misterio | Lalon: "Expert" not, I just know a little bit more that when I began with GNU/Linux | 13:18 |
| sectroyer | Beyecixramd: I don't want to restart X I want to turn it off | 13:18 |
| Lalon | Sary: allright.. then u gonna tell me all the help related topics about xchat done! | 13:19 |
| Misterio | s/that/than | 13:19 |
| sectroyer | Beyecixramd: How can I enable it? It's the first linux that has this disabled :( | 13:19 |
| Beyecixramd | sectroyer: sudo init 3, that makes you go to CLI interface only | 13:19 |
| Lalon | Misterio: allright then can u help me with a usb modem problem? | 13:19 |
| Beyecixramd | sectroyer: to enable it, do startx or sudo init 5 | 13:19 |
| abhijain | MaRk-I: Installed but dont know how to edit it seems complicated | 13:19 |
| Pici | !runlevels | Beyecixramd | 13:19 |
| ubottu | Beyecixramd: 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. | 13:19 |
| Beyecixramd | sectroyer: probably you don't have X because your graphics card isn't supported | 13:19 |
| Sary | Lalon: i will if i know about it | 13:19 |
| Misterio | Lalon: Don't ask to a user, ask to channel, so everyone will be able to help you ;) | 13:19 |
| Beyecixramd | Pici: errr... i know... | 13:19 |
| Lalon | Sary: i hope u know about proxy configure | 13:20 |
| sectroyer | Beyecixramd: I have X server running I wan to turn it off :( sudo init 3 doesn't do anything :( | 13:20 |
| Lalon | Misterio: ohh okk | 13:20 |
| Sary | Lalon: Are you Okay chill out | 13:20 |
| Misterio | Lalon: If you're paranoid you can use Tor, it's the best proxy, and you can use it with freenode and with more services | 13:20 |
| Sary | Lalon: i hope so too ;) | 13:20 |
| Lalon | Sary: okey | 13:20 |
| Misterio | !tor | Lalon | 13:20 |
| ubottu | Lalon: Want to hide your IP while connected to freenode? See http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks More information available in #freenode | 13:20 |
| aramroth | sectroyer: sudo /etc/init.d gdm stop | 13:21 |
| sectroyer | Beyecixramd: Ctrl+alt+backspace does nothing in 10.4, init 3 does nothing :( Is there any other way to turn off it :( | 13:21 |
| aramroth | this should kill X | 13:21 |
| Lalon | i hav cloaks | 13:21 |
| Lalon | ;) | 13:21 |
| Sary | Misterio: there is cloak also , right | 13:21 |
| Lalon | with another nick | 13:21 |
| Lalon | lmao | 13:21 |
| sectroyer | aramroth: This kills gnome, X server is still running :( | 13:21 |
| Beyecixramd | sectroyer: you have to ENABLE that keystroke | 13:21 |
| Lalon | so | 13:21 |
| aramroth | always worked for me | 13:21 |
| sectroyer | Beyecixramd: How ? | 13:21 |
| Beyecixramd | sectroyer: i told you, in the keyboard shortctut editor, in preferences or something | 13:22 |
| Beyecixramd | sectroyer: that'll restart X | 13:22 |
| sectroyer | Beyecixramd: I seee | 13:22 |
| sectroyer | Beyecixramd: On any other linux that I use Ctrl+Alt+Backspace doesn't "restart X" it "kills X". Can I make it "kill X" ? | 13:22 |
| Beyecixramd | sectroyer: that shortcut, ALWAYS has been set to RESTART X | 13:23 |
| Beyecixramd | sectroyer: if it KILLS it, then something's wrong | 13:23 |
| dury | I'm running karmic 64 bit | 13:23 |
| sectroyer | Beyecixramd: Maybe on ubuntu :) | 13:23 |
| Lalon | i have a usb modem .. but my ubuntu doesnt detect it so i cant use internet in ubuntu.. so everytime i login to xp then my plag and play software detect my modem and then i restart xp then login to ubuntu.. then i see my modem is detected.. so the problem is if i login in ubuntu, ubuntu doesnt detect my modem.. so i use xp to detect my modem .. do u know hwo to solve this problem? | 13:23 |
| Lalon | read it | 13:23 |
| Lalon | :D | 13:23 |
| dury | so need 64bit flashplayer | 13:23 |
| Pici | sectroyer: No, that has always been the restart X shortcut on every xorg release I've used, Ubuntu or not. | 13:24 |
| Beyecixramd | dury: Adobe doesn't make 64 bit flashplayer for linux | 13:24 |
| abhijain | MaRk-I: can u help me how to edit pdf in pdfeditor | 13:24 |
| Sary | bazhang: i really need to use that ! commands ;) | 13:24 |
| sectroyer | Pici: Try gentoo. | 13:24 |
| sectroyer | :) | 13:24 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: USB Modems are messy. Manufacturers tend to skip Linux supoprt | 13:24 |
| MaRk-I | abhijain: sorry can't | 13:24 |
| Somelauw | How do I start php in interactive mode? I tried php -a, but it doesn't show any output? | 13:24 |
| Lalon | Beyecixramd: ohh i see.. :( | 13:24 |
| abhijain | ok | 13:24 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: you can't use them on Mac OS X as well | 13:25 |
| dury | Beyecixramd: so what should I do, What you suggest me? | 13:25 |
| sectroyer | Pici: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_System | 13:25 |
| Lalon | Beyecixramd: yeah only i can use it on windows.. but u see im using it now in ubuntu.. so if ubuntu can detect my modem.. then my problem is solved | 13:25 |
| sectroyer | "...Control-Alt-Backspace typically terminates the currently running X session.." | 13:25 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: We can blame Apple & Microsoft too ;) | 13:25 |
| Beyecixramd | dury: i'm currently using GNash, the free, open source implementation for Flash, it's not as good as flash, but works on 64 | 13:26 |
| sectroyer | terminates is not a synonym of "restarts" :) | 13:26 |
| Lalon | so i have to find out a way to detect my modem.. in ubuntu.. thats i think | 13:26 |
| Lalon | so i need a real expert | 13:26 |
| Lalon | :D | 13:26 |
| Beyecixramd | dury: either that, or install the 32 bit libraries, and get 32 bit flash player | 13:26 |
| Pici | sectroyer: Well, gdm restarts X automatically after it dies. | 13:26 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: what you need is your manufacturer to WRITE DRIVERS FOR LINUX actually | 13:26 |
| sectroyer | Pici: I would like to find out how to turn it off :) | 13:26 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: Thats right | 13:26 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: :P | 13:26 |
| Lalon | hmmm.. but man they dont care about linux | 13:26 |
| Lalon | they only care about windows.. | 13:26 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: exactly. Don't buy their products then :) | 13:27 |
| Lalon | but i care about linux.. and here is the clash of the civilization.. | 13:27 |
| Pici | sectroyer: stopping gdm will stop x. | 13:27 |
| dury | Beyecixramd: what's the way to install 32 bit libraries? | 13:27 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: since a while i don't buy things which are FULLY SUPPORTED in Linux | 13:27 |
| Lalon | Beyecixramd: lol man in our country u cannot find a linux supported modem | 13:27 |
| Lalon | :D | 13:27 |
| Beyecixramd | dury apt-get install ia32libs i believe, Google is your friend | 13:27 |
| Lalon | its rare in asia | 13:27 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: buy it on internet | 13:27 |
| Lalon | Beyecixramd: lol | 13:27 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: China is a big community using Linux | 13:28 |
| sectroyer | Pici: Okay, thanks :) | 13:28 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: after all, they're all communists, what did you expect :P | 13:28 |
| Lalon | china yeah.. also using windows same time :P | 13:28 |
| Pici | Beyecixramd, Lalon: Can we try to stay on-topic here? | 13:28 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: well, but at least the Linux implementation there is bigger | 13:28 |
| Beyecixramd | Pici: sorry :P | 13:28 |
| Lalon | may b they are doing same thing for usb detecting what i do | 13:28 |
| Lalon | lmao | 13:28 |
| Lalon | Pici: ok | 13:28 |
| sectroyer | bye | 13:28 |
| owd95 | is it normal that ubunyu use 1.5gb of 4gb ram when you only use pidgin, x-chatt and googlechrome? | 13:29 |
| Beyecixramd | owd95: yes, totally normal. Linux caches memory to run faster | 13:29 |
| Beyecixramd | owd95: unlike Windows, Linux uses as much RAM as it can | 13:29 |
| Lalon | i use 512 mb ram | 13:29 |
| Beyecixramd | owd95: that means less wait to start programs | 13:29 |
| aramroth | unlike windows xp and earlier | 13:29 |
| ackbahr | Hi everyone! I've got an acpi issue on my eeepc : when the screen dims after a few seconds of inactivity, moving the mouse returns it to a farely dark setting, but certainly not to the one before dimming.... Can someone help me fix this please? | 13:30 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy | 13:30 |
| Beyecixramd | aramroth: unlike Windows 7 and earlier ;) | 13:30 |
| aramroth | vista's and 7's prefetch works like linux with preload | 13:30 |
| owd95 | Beyecixramd: thx! | 13:30 |
| karuru | how can i set it that the default choice in grub is windows xp? | 13:30 |
| aramroth | vista and 7 cache memory too | 13:30 |
| Beyecixramd | no, aramroth, superfetch only works for a few programs | 13:30 |
| aramroth | that's why they take so much ram | 13:30 |
| Sary | Sary: Hello Ubuntu , welcome All newcomers ;) | 13:30 |
| Lalon | how can i create pdf file in ubuntu | 13:30 |
| Beyecixramd | aramroth: in which bootscreen, Internet Explorer and Office are included. Nothing else | 13:30 |
| Froberg | ... | 13:30 |
| Somelauw | How do I start php in interactive mode? I tried php -a, but it doesn't show any output? | 13:30 |

| ubottu | grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 13:30 |

| Lalon | latex | 13:31 |
| Lalon | Beyecixramd: sure? its a word processor | 13:31 |
| karuru | how can i set it that the default choice in grub is windows xp? (i have grub 2 (lucid lync) grub is not broken) | 13:31 |
| Pici | !latex | Lalon | 13:31 |
| ubottu | Lalon: tex is a language for describing a document, commonly used especially for scientific publishing. Information and instructions for installing TeX and other related packages can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LaTeX | 13:31 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: sure. You just press "export as PDF" | 13:32 |
| Froberg | Can someone please tell me where I get a list of nicks in Xchat? First time user here, sorry for newbishness | 13:32 |
| Froberg | I am too used to mIRC methinks | 13:32 |
| Beyecixramd | Froberg: /list i believe | 13:32 |
| Lalon | Pici: i can use writer.. because i have installed it | 13:32 |
| Froberg | Beyecixramd : I can't view it constantly? | 13:32 |
| dury | Beyecixramd: those libraries already installed | 13:32 |
| Beyecixramd | Froberg: you should have a list of users on the right | 13:33 |
| dury | Beyecixramd: I mean 32 bits ones | 13:33 |
| Sary | karuru: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 13:33 |
| Beyecixramd | dury: great, now go install 32 bit flash player | 13:33 |
| Pici | Froberg: I believe you can right-click on the chat and select an option to turn on the user list. I don't use xchat myself, so I may be wrong. | 13:33 |
| Lalon | so ppl tell me something | 13:33 |
| dury | Beyecixramd: as normal? | 13:33 |
| Beyecixramd | dury: yeah, should work | 13:34 |
| Froberg | Pici, right-clicking only gives me copy.. and the user list you mentioned Beyecixramd only works for quick-referencing, it auto-closes all the time :( | 13:34 |
| dury | Beyecixramd: see what's happened | 13:34 |
| Froberg | But then.. this is the xchat gnome IRC.. maybe with the official client.. | 13:34 |

| Guest83234 | Sary, i'm just trying to get it installed ;( | 13:42 |
| MasterOfDisaster | Guest83234: see 'man chmod' for more information about the executable bit | 13:42 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: it's not related to Wine | 13:42 |
| Lalon | okkk Beyecixramd | 13:43 |
| Guest83234 | MasterofDisaster, ok let me try to chmod it | 13:43 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: oh okay , i though so | 13:43 |

| saleh | hi i need help with my ubuntu10.4 ,the problem is when i start updatemanger or ubuntu softwarecenter ,system will stop working ,but if i close them the system will work again .(so i can not install any application)/how can i solve this problem | 13:43 |
| Beyecixramd | fablinix: some GNOME themes don't play nice with some applets | 13:43 |
| Sary | Guest83234: i have installed Paltalk today through Wine and it went well | 13:44 |
| logni | How do i uninstall apache2? | 13:44 |
| logni | apt-get purge apache2 removes hardly anything | 13:44 |
| logni | :| | 13:44 |
| Lalon | Beyecixramd: is there anything like msn here.. where i can share photos, can do webcam chat.. and stuffs | 13:44 |
| Sary | Lalon: Emesene | 13:45 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: sorry. MSN is a closed source, propietary protocol. Microsoft bans some of the features so that non-official clients can't use them | 13:45 |
| Sary | aMsn , never i didn't try it though | 13:45 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: there's Emesene, and KMess, but they don't have all features | 13:45 |
| Guest83234 | MasterofDisaster, when I run that command should I get some sort of confirmation the file has changed? I don't: zachary@zachary-laptop:~/Downloads/PS/Ps_7$ chmod +x Setup.exe | 13:45 |
| Guest83234 | zachary@zachary-laptop:~/Downloads/PS/Ps_7$ | 13:45 |
| Lalon | Sary: i got empathy is that same with emesene | 13:45 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: i suggest you to switch to the fully open source XMPP network | 13:45 |
| Lalon | Beyecixramd: allright.. | 13:46 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: Empathy lacks some MSN features, but yes, it works for sending and receiving messages | 13:46 |
| saleh | hi i need help with my ubuntu10.4 ,the problem is when i start updatemanger or ubuntu softwarecenter ,system will stop working ,but if i close them the system will work again .(so i can not install any application)/how can i solve this problem?????? | 13:46 |
| Sary | Lalon: no , there is less features with empathy | 13:46 |
| fablinix | Beyecixramd: the odd thing is that it uses only a little bit of it, look: http://pici.se/pictures/MvawWGooZ.png | 13:46 |
| MasterOfDisaster | Guest83234: no, you can check with 'ls -lhA' | 13:46 |

| Guest83234 | MasterofDisaster, ah perfect ty | 13:46 |
| Beyecixramd | totally normal, fablinix | 13:46 |
| Lalon | Sary: allright so u saying that emenese is better than empathy? | 13:46 |
| Lalon | then why does ubunti give empathy as default .. for chat | 13:47 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: because Empathy is for ALL networks, Emesene only works for MSN | 13:47 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: Empathy is also better integrated with the system | 13:47 |
| Lalon | Beyecixramd: allright got it | 13:47 |
| Sary | Lalon: i use emense for more features | 13:47 |

| mengu | hi. what's the error with that? http://pastie.org/1051929 | 13:50 |
| MasterOfDisaster | rizzuh: lspci, lsusb, cat /proc/meminfo, cat /proc/cpuinfo | 13:51 |
| Sary | i can blame everyone but GNU/Linux , thats for sure | 13:51 |

| rizzuh | Thanks MaRk-I and MasterOfDisaster! | 13:52 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: that's good, but don't blame developers like "program X sucks" | 13:52 |
| Sary | goten: | 13:52 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: they are doing a really HARD WORK decrypting how MSN works | 13:52 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: if you don't like it, contribute and improve | 13:53 |
| thewanderer1 | I know a bit on that, had to do the same with Gadu-Gadu once... | 13:53 |
| ocs | hi. I have two monitors and two respective X sessions. In addition, I have a ssh server listening. How can I connect, from a remote host, to the desktop of the X session 2 ? | 13:53 |
| Beyecixramd | Lalon: otherwise, use open source protocols, like XMPP which work perfectly with all programs... errr... except Windows Live Messenger :P | 13:53 |
| thewanderer1 | ocs, you connect and set DISPLAY accordingly | 13:53 |
| ocs | I mean, after doing ssh -X foo@host , what I should do? | 13:53 |
| thewanderer1 | do you want to launch applications on DISPLAY 2? | 13:54 |
| ocs | thewanderer1: yes | 13:54 |
| thewanderer1 | you won't be seeing them you know, just the person who sees the display will | 13:54 |
| mengu | oh i found it | 13:54 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: Take a cup of Coffee :) | 13:54 |
| ocs | thewanderer1: I know, but how can I do? | 13:54 |
| thewanderer1 | you can't run an app via ssh and expect to see it while displaying it on the other screen | 13:54 |
| thewanderer1 | for that, use VNC | 13:55 |
| ocs | thewanderer1: that's not may aim | 13:55 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: see, they just piss me off with their "program X sucks because it doesn't work with Y propietary implementation" | 13:55 |
| ocs | I don't want to share desktop | 13:55 |
| Beyecixramd | Sary: like "openoffice sux because it doesn't open .docx reliably" | 13:55 |
| thewanderer1 | ocs, so if you want to run a program on a remote desktop only, set DISPLAY properly | 13:55 |
| ocs | thewanderer1: ok, but in which way? | 13:55 |
| ocs | export DISPLAY=2 ? | 13:55 |
| thewanderer1 | if you don't know the desired value, launch a terminal on your display there and see the correct value | 13:56 |
| Sary | Beyecixramd: Yeah , thats lame .. | 13:56 |
| zano | hi | 13:56 |

| Sary | zano: Hello , welcome aboard | 13:56 |
| jepong | welcome zano | 13:56 |
| thewanderer1 | ocs, you should also remember that you won't be able to invade someone else's session in terms of users | 13:56 |
| ocs | thewanderer1: again, I already know that | 13:57 |
| ocs | anyway, I found how to set display. | 13:57 |
| ocs | now: how can I launch gdm remotely ? | 13:57 |
| thewanderer1 | /etc/init.d/gdm start ... | 13:57 |
| MasterOfDisaster | saleh: Not sure if I understood correctly, but I'd guess 'dpkg --get-selections' | 13:57 |
| thewanderer1 | but GDM spawns its own X server | 13:57 |
| ocs | thewanderer1: on kde I launched kdesktop | 13:57 |
| ocs | are you sure that I have to launche gdm in this way? | 13:58 |
| thewanderer1 | do you want GDM or GNOME? | 13:58 |
| ocs | thewanderer1: sorry. gnome | 13:58 |
| ocs | (right question) | 13:58 |
| abhijit | how to know version of postfresql? | 13:58 |
| thewanderer1 | ocs, then you have to init it like GDM does | 13:58 |
| abhijit | !pm | goten | 13:59 |
| ubottu | goten: 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. | 13:59 |
| ocs | thewanderer1: I'm sure there's a faster way. on kde I simply launched kdesktop | 13:59 |
| thewanderer1 | ocs, preferably yes, although I believe you should have run startkde | 13:59 |
| goten | okay | 14:00 |
| thewanderer1 | ocs, but I don't see a friendly script on GNOME... I don't like GNOME anyway :P | 14:00 |

| abhijit | i.e. 9.* | 14:21 |
| Oer | abhijit, did you check synaptic ? | 14:21 |
| abhijit | Oer, no i ddnt | 14:21 |
| cablop | in fact aptitude wast not the base way to install things in ubuntu... | 14:21 |
| === Rom1_21 is now known as romaing | ||
| abhijit | Oer, i am here in standard account. to check that i need to login to admin account | 14:22 |

| Oer | oke | 14:22 |
| Kwpolska | 'admin' account? don't use windows terminology | 14:22 |
| RandyRKelly | lol expressing | 14:23 |
| h00k | !root | 14:23 |
| 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 | 14:23 |
| thewanderer1 | sudo passwd root | 14:23 |
| thewanderer1 | and there you go with real Unix ways | 14:23 |
| thewanderer1 | be a man :P | 14:24 |
| bazhang | thewanderer1, please do NOT recommend that here | 14:24 |
| h00k | thewanderer1: we don't support root passwords | 14:24 |
| cablop | i don't know why ubuntu kleeps that idea of restricting people to use th root accoint | 14:24 |
| cablop | why?? | 14:24 |
| DaZ | cablop: for teh lulz. | 14:25 |
| cablop | some people is good enough at computers that they're able to log s root an work | 14:25 |
| jbl_ | enriq: "man pidof" | 14:25 |
| MasterOfDisaster | heretic - get the torches... | 14:25 |
| komputes | thewanderer1: thewanderer1 cablop https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo | 14:25 |
| thewanderer1 | yeah | 14:25 |
| jpds | cablop: Because it's not supported and Ubuntu isn't designed to be used that way. | 14:25 |
| cablop | anyway, it is supposed that linux is feedom, so if we were looking to be asked all the time to not to do this or that... we were in windows | 14:25 |
| erUSUL | cablop: people good at computers know better than to work as root. | 14:25 |
| komputes | The superuser can do anything and everything, and thus doing daily work as the superuser can be dangerous. | 14:26 |
| MasterOfDisaster | cablop, thewanderer1: familiar with the concept: "don't ask, don't tell"? :D | 14:26 |
| cablop | not all the time, of course | 14:26 |
| io | cablop: People have said that it "isn't supported", not that it "isn't possible". That wiki page has more information. | 14:26 |
| erUSUL | cablop: if i saw someone logged as root i know they are are not good at computers :) | 14:26 |
| doug73 | any chemists / chemistry students around here who are confirm with structure programs like ISIS draw that are confirm with isis draw? | 14:26 |
| enriq | jbl_, but pidof java would return several pids as I run many java programs | 14:26 |
| * DaZ logs in as root | 14:27 | |
| DaZ | dun dun dunn | 14:27 |
| cablop | i use to log as root just to do things easier and faster, also to hide what i did from my normal user log and so on | 14:27 |
| Jinxed- | I have a new install of 10.04 and I had some questions: 1) how do i get the close/min/max buttons back to the right side 2) How do I find out which wireless drivers I should install 3) I accidenitly removed the volume control from the panel and I can't seem to get it back... how do i get it back? | 14:27 |
| enriq | jbl_, I think I need something more like "lauch xxx and print pid somewhere" | 14:27 |
| komputes | By default, the root account password is locked in Ubuntu. Sudo allows authorized admin users to run programs as root. | 14:27 |

| skumara | jinxed for volume control right click taskbar and choose add to panel | 14:29 |
| jbl_ | enriq: how about this: <command line to start your java thing> & and then use the $! special bash variable | 14:29 |
| komputes | wow | 14:29 |
| cablop | Jinxed-: there's an entry in the gconf-manager for the button thing, but i forgot it... you can try right clicking in the panel and adding the volume gadget, and | 14:29 |
| komputes | thewanderer1: cablop: Anyway, as I was saying, you can so the same in ubuntu, just log in as the admin and run sudo -s or sudo -i | 14:29 |
| cablop | Jinxed-: sorry no idea in how to deal with wireless | 14:30 |
| faLUCE | thewanderer1: when I launch gnome session, I can see it only when DISPLAY is localhost:10.0 (corresponding to the first monitor) . If I set DISPLAY=localhost:10.1 (which I suppose is the session for the second monitor) it can't launch gnome-session... why? | 14:30 |
| badpenguin86 | Problem: I can't get sound to work on m macbook using alsa, oss, or pulse audio. | 14:30 |
| erUSUL | Jinxed-: 2) lspci | grep -i network 3) put the indicator applet back in the panel and make sure you have indicator-sound intalled | 14:30 |

| imanc | hey guys - I am about to set up a hosting account with a company and they only support up to ubuntu server 8 with plesk control panel. I need to run python/django sites which require a level of configuration and reasonably up to date versions of python etc. I'm worried ubuntu 8 may cause problems. Does anyone have any advice? | 14:32 |
| ibqn | can you tell me the command name of the application, which can be accessed by menu item System >Preferences > Sound ? | 14:32 |
| thewanderer1 | imanc, it will cause problems. | 14:32 |
| cablop | anyway, i just recommend to not to keep in root too much time, and use the sudo thing, if you are going to do a very long and hard and deep maintenance task you can log as root anyway, but you are in a very high risk to mess things | 14:32 |
| imanc | thewanderer1: damn. Because it's dated? | 14:32 |
| cablop | lol | 14:32 |
| cablop | this ubuntu thing is weird | 14:32 |
| abhijit | ibqn, you can know yourself by right click on ubuntu logo which is on left side of 'Applicaions' and see for the command | 14:33 |
| cablop | i selected a mouse cursosr, but it just works on the gtk windows if i move my mouse over a qt window the mouse pointer shows as a little default pointer | 14:33 |
| ibqn | abhijit, I do not have this menu item | 14:33 |
| thewanderer1 | imanc, pretty much... you still get the security updates, but not feature updates | 14:34 |
| bandeira | how can i enable that OK screen at the beginning of starting ubuntu? | 14:34 |
| thewanderer1 | so it's worse than Debian Lanny probably now | 14:34 |
| imanc | argh :( | 14:34 |
| ohir | !lts | imanc | 14:34 |
| ubottu | imanc: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) | 14:34 |
| badpenguin86 | Problem: I can't get sound to work on m macbook using alsa, oss, or pulse audio. | 14:34 |
| ader10 | I'm having OpenSSH server trouble, which should have a simple solution. Please help me! http://pastebin.com/0FRQDAQN | 14:34 |
| abhijit | ibqn, you are in ubuntu desktop edition? which version? | 14:34 |
| ohir | imanc: 8.04 server is still supported and is solid rock. Thats why hosting companies use it | 14:34 |
| andres_ | guys can you pls help me how to bring back the network manager and bluetooth icon on the panel. i accedentally delete it. thank you | 14:34 |
| ibqn | abhijit, I am not on ubuntu | 14:34 |
| abhijit | ibqn, ?? then ?? | 14:35 |
| thewanderer1 | imanc, if the company manages software, just find which versions of software they support | 14:35 |
| iceroot | ohir: desktop is also still supported | 14:35 |
| imanc | thewanderer1: I already ahd a server set up with these guys. IT was CentOS and I was stuck with Py 2.4 that broke the py app I had. And there was no updates in teh repos and the company would not advise/support a py install from source and recommended against it. | 14:35 |
| erUSUL | andres_: add the notification area again | 14:35 |
| erUSUL | andres_: right click on the panel choose add to panel | 14:35 |
| ibqn | abhijit, can you please just me the command name? | 14:35 |
| erUSUL | abhijit: gnome-volume-control | 14:35 |
| ohir | imanc: you though can try to convince them to allow backports in their sources list | 14:35 |
| abhijit | ibqn, ok wait | 14:35 |
| abhijit | ibqn, see msg by erUSUL | 14:35 |
| imanc | hmm | 14:35 |
| thewanderer1 | imanc, I'd say go with Debian if you are feeling good with the command line | 14:35 |
| thewanderer1 | and if they offer 5.0 | 14:36 |
| Pici | ibqn: This channel is only for Ubuntu support. | 14:36 |
| imanc | does debian compare to ubuntu in terms of having upto date packages? | 14:36 |
| lnl | hello | 14:36 |
| imanc | CentOS and RHL are horrid | 14:36 |
| ohir | imanc: almost all basic packages that you can find in never server wersions of ubuntu are backported to 8.04 | 14:36 |
| enriq | jbl_, MasterOfDisaster, erUSUL thanks, I'll check out all ideas | 14:36 |
| lnl | Linux.. | 14:36 |
| iceroot | imanc: debian stable packages are older then ubuntu stable packages | 14:36 |
| imanc | hmm | 14:36 |
| thewanderer1 | imanc, but Debian Lenny is still more current than ubuntu 8.04 | 14:36 |
| lnl | I love windows7 more than linux | 14:37 |
| DaZ | debian stable packages are older than the universe. | 14:37 |
| imanc | lnl: sad | 14:37 |
| iceroot | lnl: you have a support-question? | 14:37 |
| Pici | lnl: This is a support channel, do you have a support question? | 14:37 |
| andres_ | erusul-i did it but there is no network mgr icon on the selection | 14:37 |
| thewanderer1 | imanc, up do you to decide. just browse through the repos and pick what suits you | 14:37 |
| imanc | DaZ: probably not as old as CentOS packages. I think the OS is still 8bit | 14:37 |
| lnl | I think windows7 is more easy to use | 14:37 |
| erUSUL | andres_: alt + f2 run nm-applet | 14:37 |
| iceroot | lnl: stop it | 14:37 |
| ader10 | I'm having OpenSSH server trouble, which should have a simple solution. Please help me! http://pastebin.com/0FRQDAQN | 14:37 |
| andres_ | erusul- thank you | 14:38 |
| cablop | lnl: yes, it is, but eats moe computer than lucid | 14:38 |
| lnl | I've just make a ubuntu in my PC | 14:38 |
| thewanderer1 | lnl, if you want an easy to use Linux with a familiar Windows touch, try Linspire - it might suit your needs and looks quite similar to win7 I think | 14:38 |
| ader10 | Guys, lnl is trolling, please stop bumping my question up by replying to him | 14:38 |
| progre55 | hi guys! what's the mode (in digits) for this kind of file perm "-rw-r-----"? | 14:38 |

| progre55 | thanks | 14:39 |
| lnl | linux is more difficult for me | 14:39 |
| progre55 | iceroot, thewanderer1: thanks ) | 14:39 |
| imanc | OK the other option I have .... ditch plesk and my hosting company will let me have Ubuntu 10.4 (yay) without CP. It's just mail server config that is going to be a hassle | 14:39 |
| ohir | ader10: turn on full debug in putty on your windoze and pastebin that log | 14:39 |
| Pici | lnl: Again. do you have an actual support question? If not, you may want to look at http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 14:39 |
| iceroot | progre55: (r)ead=4, (w)rite=2, e(x)ecutable=1 rw- = 4 +2 | 14:39 |
| lnl | OK | 14:39 |
| lnl | forgive me | 14:40 |
| gmariano | Anyone using tracker to index files? | 14:40 |
| ader10 | ohir: How do I turn full debug on in putty? | 14:40 |
| Jinxed- | erUSUL if I drag the administration -> sound to the panel it gives me sound support, but not where i can just click and adjust the sound right away... it launches a full sound menu... is there a way to get the quick sound adjustment back to the panel? | 14:40 |

| lnl | this is my first time using linux | 14:40 |
| ohir | ader10: its somewhere in site config dialog | 14:40 |
| bonez2046 | my sound failed. the speaker icon at the top status bar just had - - after it instead of the sound wave symbol, it required a reboot to restore it.. Why? what process failed taking my sound with it? | 14:40 |
| iceroot | lnl: this channel is for support-questions, if you just want to chat, join #ubuntu-offtopic | 14:40 |
| erUSUL | Jinxed-: the sound indicator in the indicator applet does that | 14:41 |
| thewanderer1 | bonez2046, pulseaudio | 14:41 |
| lnl | OK,I get it | 14:41 |
| faLUCE | thewanderer1: I don't know how | 14:41 |
| lnl | I have a problem in setup program | 14:41 |
| progre55 | iceroot: oh now I got it =) | 14:41 |
| Jinxed- | erUSUL: right you are... just missed it because of the generic icon the first couple times... thanks again | 14:42 |
| bonez2046 | thewanderer1: would the solution then be 'ps ax | grep pul[s]eaudio to find and kill and then restart the video/audio? | 14:42 |
| erUSUL | Jinxed-: no problem | 14:42 |
| thewanderer1 | probably, or just relogin | 14:42 |

| progre55 | thewanderer1: thanks | 14:44 |
| ohir | ader10: there is place to fill in where log is to be _saved_. Putty do not "show" log, it writes it to disc | 14:44 |
| trojan_spike | firestarter is the one i use pensfan | 14:44 |
| ader10 | ohir: I tried a 2048 bit key at first and used a 4096 after it didn't work (I could save putty's key as a 4096 bit one too) | 14:44 |
| Raydiation | does ubuntu use the original openssh package? | 14:45 |
| thewanderer1 | ader10, ssh won't accept connections with a key if .ssh or authorized_keys have too loose permissions, set .ssh to 0700 and authorized_keys to 0600 | 14:45 |
| ader10 | ohir: I chose to save it to c:\users\ader10\putty.log, but the file was never created | 14:45 |

| ohir | ader10: have you checked [x] detailed log ? | 14:45 |
| thewanderer1 | Raydiation, there is no such thing. the original OpenSSH is now only on OpenBSD | 14:45 |
| rww | CkhiKuzad: oops, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KarmicUpgrades , sorry | 14:45 |
| CkhiKuzad | rww, thats the least important one. those before it are a failsafe for if the upgrade fails. | 14:46 |

| ader10 | I don't see a detailed log option but I selected "all session output" | 14:46 |

| CkhiKuzad | s3r3n1t7_, if you mean dd then i am not so sure about it. but i have a second partition on this drive | 14:51 |
| ohir | ader10: first do as thewanderer1 said: try to ssh you@localhost | 14:51 |
| thewanderer1 | glacious, why don't you just mount tmofs over /tmp ? | 14:51 |
| ader10 | I can get in from localhost | 14:51 |
| thewanderer1 | s/tmofs/tmpfs/ | 14:51 |
| thewanderer1 | ader10, using a key? | 14:52 |
| ohir | ader10: if it will work, your problem is with putty config | 14:52 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | CkhiKuzad, not about DD, i've been told it isn't the best of options. I'm using xfs here, which has it's own dump and restore utility. Perhaps there is a same utility for your FS? | 14:52 |
| ader10 | I can get in from localhost using a key | 14:52 |
| thewanderer1 | ader10, Bitvise Tunnellier is a Windows SSH client capable of using pure OpenSSH keys | 14:52 |

| thewanderer1 | glaucous, yes | 14:52 |
| SaEeDIRHA | hello guys, i have ubuntu 10.04 server, i have disabled the line of SSH configuration file that shows MOTD , but still it shows me the message when i loggin , is there anyway that i can disable it ? | 14:52 |
| ohir | ader10: add your private key to pageant | 14:52 |
| CkhiKuzad | s3r3n1t7_, i use EXT2 i believe. | 14:52 |
| glaucous | thewanderer1, like this? mount tmpfs /tmp -t tmpfs -o size=64m | 14:53 |
| ader10 | the problem isn't putty | 14:53 |
| Oer | glaucous, yes, flash cookies ~/.macromedia/Flash_Player/#SharedObjects/ | 14:53 |
| ader10 | I can't connect from another linux computer either | 14:53 |
| thewanderer1 | glaucous, yeah | 14:53 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | CkhiKuzad, open a terminal and type mount without options. It'll show a list of all mounted file systems. The one which is mounted on / should show you a filesystem. ext2 is rather odd, so could you confirm it for me please? | 14:53 |
| ader10 | the port is open in my router, too :( | 14:53 |
| glaucous | Oer, okay then I can use use ln to link that to tmp then? | 14:53 |

| ohir | ader10: do you use any firewalling on that box? If so you need to unblock ssh (port22) connections | 14:54 |
| thewanderer1 | glaucous, you can... I just always mount tmpfs over /tmp without linking - works for me | 14:54 |
| sveinerik | Hey, I need some help. In front of me I have one Mint 9 disc and one PCLOS 2010 disc. Anyone have any say as to which one I should go for? Switching over from Windows (completely). And I know, I should've got Ubuntu, but don't have time to DL now. So, any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Either here in the chat, or PM me, thanks :) | 14:54 |
| glaucous | thewanderer1, but when using size=64m, will it instantly use 64m RAM, or grow like /dev/shm? | 14:54 |
| thewanderer1 | glaucous, it is max size, you don't have to specify size= actually | 14:54 |
| ader10 | ohir: No firewalls (I'm using port 43210) | 14:54 |
| Oer | glaucous, i think so yes, but there is more, firefox cache and so on | 14:55 |
| ader10 | Interesting | 14:55 |
| glaucous | thewanderer1, but it's still dynamic? | 14:55 |
| thewanderer1 | yup | 14:55 |
| trojan_spike | PCLOS>> | 14:55 |
| trojan_spike | ?? | 14:55 |
| glaucous | Oer, aight, I'll have to look around for everything that uses cache. Did the same on Windows | 14:55 |
| sveinerik | PcLinuxOs 2010, that is | 14:55 |
| ader10 | when I ping 192.168.1.99 it says "from 192.168.1.109 icmp_seq=2 destination host unreachable" | 14:55 |
| glaucous | thewanderer1, Oer, thank you both. Now I have to walk the dog. :) | 14:55 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | CkhiKuzad, i can't find a utility like xfsdump for ext3 in a second, but in my opinion a dump of your FS is the safest way to go, especially if you have another linux based OS. They are usually able to restore those kind of backups with more ease. | 14:55 |
| trojan_spike | never used it,, but i used mint 9 and didnt like it,, fluxbox.. | 14:56 |
| bandeira | is it possible mounting a server using ubuntu desktop version? my interests are printing and file sharing and also a counter-strike's server. | 14:56 |

| ohir | ader10: it will show you more about why it can not connect | 14:56 |

| ubottu | andrzej: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 14:59 |
| thewanderer1 | ader10, it's exactly what it says | 15:00 |
| abhijit | doug73, first of all as suggested by seba-- in #chemistry try a software called chemdraw. also you can serch for available software in applications=>ubuntu software center | 15:00 |

| cablop | thewanderer1: or maybe i don't know how to put the acl in the fstab, do you know how? i was exhausted to look here and there in google with no much luck | 15:00 |
| ader10 | I forgot to chmod 600 | 15:00 |
| ader10 | but now, what is wrong with putty | 15:00 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | CkhiKuzad, dd won't blame it up, but it also copies the empty space. What my google search did find is that a LVM can always make a safe and hot snapshot/copy of whatever filesystem you are using. Would it be an idea to use that? | 15:00 |
| ohir | CkhiKuzad: /4 | 15:01 |

I want to be able to connect the USB wireless to our wireless router so I can access the internet without going through the firewall and I want all LAN related traffic to go through the ethernet card. Is this possible to set up in Ubuntu? | 15:02 |
| CkhiKuzad | s3r3n1t7_, i said blam to censor myself. it meant a word that starts with f that would probably get me kickbanned from this channel for about 5 minutes. | 15:02 |
| ader10 | Aha! I can connect from putty now and I didn't change anything | 15:02 |
| doug73 | abhijit i know that there are many programs for this, but my problem is i dont know wich program is compartible to isis draw | 15:02 |
| ohir | ader10: so follow putty path: 1) add key to pageant 2) set Connection->data->Auto-login to your username | 15:02 |

| s3r3n1t7_ | CkhiKuzad, I've read stories about it. For some it works, for some it doesn't. I think the main issue will be the ability to create a hot copy or not, which is rather vague for it. | 15:04 |

| cablop | thewanderer1: that was the problem i had it like ext3,acl defaults, i think it's where defaults is... but... now i don't know what to place instead defaults | 15:06 |
| jfarhad_ | can anyone help me? | 15:06 |
| ohir | doug73: someone on relevant forums and channels likely tried or even still use such apps | 15:06 |
| CkhiKuzad | s3r3n1t7_, i have 9.04 and debian lenny installed. i havent upgraded yet. | 15:06 |
| thewanderer1 | cablop, next to defaults like this: ext3 defaults,acl | 15:07 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | CkhiKuzad, in fact, and i quote "Filesystem being backedup must be unmounted and inaccessible to other programs. ". Do you want to create a backup of the system while running or are you ok with having to boot debian to make a backup? | 15:07 |
| thewanderer1 | cablop, be sure to read `man fstab` too, voodoo is not a good method | 15:07 |

| jfarhad_ | ok | 15:08 |

| jfarhad_ | i need to change linux box to hide login prompt to user and instead of it show my simple gui program | 15:08 |
| ohir | doug73: start your own solution :-) | 15:08 |
| cablop | thewanderer1: i know, i'm not voodooing, i just a little rusted, i used fstab but years ago, now i'm getting a headache just trying to remember how to... well, what i want is how to know what is the defaults options | 15:09 |
| cablop | how can i know what options are defaults in fstab? | 15:09 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | CkhiKuzad, according to the partimage site it's not going to be much use. You can't switch the FS type either, nor use an LVM with it. Hmm ... tricky situation. | 15:09 |
| thewanderer1 | cablop, defaults are undefined, I never put them there... manpage might tell you that | 15:09 |
| daedalus96 | i am having issues connecting to my wireless network, when i use iwlist scan, it does not show my network... | 15:09 |

| s3r3n1t7_ | CkhiKuzad, what backup program is it? Does it create a file? Then i suppose you could mount your debian FS, copy it onto there, so when something goes wrong you boot that up and restore it. | 15:11 |
| cablop | CkhiKuzad: well, then i'm not voodooing | 15:11 |
| econdudeawesome | ClhiKuzad thanks, but that's not the question I was asking | 15:11 |

| karlo | anybody know link where I can download driver GIGABYTE GV-R925128 (graphical driver) ? | 15:12 |
| CkhiKuzad | s3r3n1t7_, its simple backup. it creates a .gz file when it does its backups | 15:12 |
| yangzhe | s? | 15:12 |
| CkhiKuzad | they are kept in a backup directory that i can easily copy to my second partition | 15:12 |
| sipior | jfarhad_: you can modify the getty entries in /etc/init/tty[1-6], and use the -l switch to getty to specify that your own login program be invoked instead of /bin/login. | 15:12 |
| karlo | anybody know link where I can download driver GIGABYTE GV-R925128 (graphical driver) ? | 15:13 |
| CkhiKuzad | in reality, i am just being incredibly paranoid. but my CD drive is burnt out, so i cant live reinstall, i can unetbootin reinstall, but that requires more upgrades to get where i was, then restoring my backups | 15:13 |
| CkhiKuzad | DONT MENTION USB BOOT TO ME. | 15:13 |
| CkhiKuzad | ^^ | 15:13 |
| jfarhad_ | is this approach secure? | 15:14 |

| CkhiKuzad | sorry s3r3n1t7_, used them to make an intense point. not shouting | 15:14 |
| sipior | jfarhad_: that would obviously depend on the quality of the program you replace /bin/login with. | 15:14 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | CkhiKuzad, you can use unetbootin to create an installer for the latest update, create a package snapshot for what you have now and reinstall every package when you're done. | 15:14 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | CkhiKuzad, using caps on IRC is considered to be shouting. | 15:14 |

| ader10 | Well, this sucks! I can only ssh into my computer by using my hostname on a local network, not an IP over the internet | 15:19 |
| ader10 | and the whole reason I'm using ssh is for the internet | 15:19 |
| Nwbi1knbi | BluesKaj, but i'll delete all partitions | 15:19 |
| ikonia | ader10: what ip are you trying to use | 15:19 |
| thewanderer1 | jfarhad_, if anyone goes near your keyboard, they can kill your system | 15:19 |
| ader10 | 96.255.184.117 | 15:19 |
| Maddeth | ader10: you can, you need to configure port forwarding through your router | 15:19 |
| ikonia | ader10: it's probably nothing to do with your ssh setting, more ilkey to do with networking | 15:19 |
| sipior | jfarhad_: unlikely, but depends on how it is written. do some reading about the pluggable authentication modules (PAM), and make use of them in your work. | 15:19 |
| ikonia | ader10: is this a home broadband/cable connection | 15:19 |
| Sacho | ader10: Then set up your networking properly. | 15:19 |
| ader10 | ikonia: yes | 15:19 |
| ikonia | ader10: ok, the odds are you've not setup port forwarding properly | 15:20 |
| ikonia | ader10: you know ssh is working, so the issue must be between internal/external IP forwarding | 15:20 |
| ader10 | Sacho: I've forwarded the port I'm using to the computer hosting ssh | 15:20 |
| BluesKaj | Nwbi1knbi, I mean when you reinstall , that way you will save your data the next time | 15:20 |
| CkhiKuzad | ok... well my entire idea became simplified now. how do i run the unetbootin binary i just downloaded? | 15:20 |
| Nwbi1knbi | BluesKaj, there must be a way, because when ubuntu upgrades to a new version, it just know what files I've changed. And i';m talking about system configured files, not configured applications, in that case a backup would been just fine. | 15:20 |
| ikonia | ader10: you're currently using vista ? | 15:20 |
| Nwbi1knbi | oh | 15:20 |
| ader10 | no | 15:20 |
| jfarhad_ | sipior: thanks, I go test it | 15:20 |

| ikonia | ader10: your client responds as vista | 15:21 |
| ader10 | Maddeth: Yes, I use a dynamic dns service | 15:21 |

| thewanderer1 | ader10, have you setup port forwarding? | 15:24 |
| ader10 | Yes | 15:24 |
| ikonia | ader10: either way, this isn't an ubuntu issue, as you know ssh is working on your lan | 15:24 |
| thewanderer1 | ader10, have you actually verified that it works? | 15:24 |
| ikonia | ader10: so the problem is between your public ip/forward to your private lan | 15:24 |
| ader10 | thewanderer1: Yes, I use it all the time for other things | 15:25 |
| thewanderer1 | ader10, try ping.eu and see if it can get to your open port | 15:25 |

| s3r3n1t7_ | CkhiKuzad, good luck! Remember to keep an eye for the FS and/or LVM. | 15:26 |
| econdudeawesome | Or is there an all-inclusive way to install elinks on top of ubuntu minimal? | 15:26 |
| thewanderer1 | econdudeawesome, apt-get install elinks | 15:26 |
| CkhiKuzad | s3r3n1t7_ i can install 10.04 on my second partition, and then copy my home over | 15:27 |
| CkhiKuzad | anyway. | 15:27 |
| econdudeawesome | thewanderer1 that would require me to have authenticated with the network--which I can't do right off unless I have a browser, so I have to have the packages handy | 15:27 |
| ikonia | ader10: it doesn't look like it's forwarding | 15:27 |
| thewanderer1 | ader10, do you have a firewall on Ubuntu? | 15:27 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | CkhiKuzad, yes you can. However, for creating a hot snapshot you would either want an LVM or an FS which can create a hot snapshot. | 15:27 |
| ader10 | thewanderer1: Not that I'm aware of | 15:27 |
| ader10 | I didn't install ufw or anything | 15:27 |
| thewanderer1 | econdudeawesome, you might have w3m installed | 15:27 |
| thewanderer1 | ader10, pastebin me `iptables -L` | 15:27 |
| CkhiKuzad | yes i would s3r3n1t7_ | 15:27 |
| thewanderer1 | ader10, and `netstat -tl` | 15:28 |
| econdudeawesome | thewanderer1 is that a browser similar to elinks? | 15:28 |
| thewanderer1 | econdudeawesome, somewhat | 15:28 |
| === wai is now known as avidya | ||
| econdudeawesome | thewanderer1 does it handle cookies? | 15:28 |
| thewanderer1 | econdudeawesome, yup | 15:29 |
| ader10 | thewanderer1: http://pastebin.com/eRmZyRuz | 15:29 |
| thewanderer1 | econdudeawesome, failing that, if you have no other option there's always netcat and the HTTP protocol | 15:29 |
| hawkI | !jdk | 15:29 |
| ader10 | thewanderer1: oops I mistyped it, it's http://pastebin.com/eRmZYRuz | 15:29 |
| hawkI | !JDK | 15:30 |
| econdudeawesome | thewanderer1 Can you give me some idea as to how that would work? | 15:30 |
| ader10 | 43210 is my ssh port | 15:30 |
| ProjektGhost | Does anyone know how to overclock CPU in Lucid (preferably through a GUI program)? Intel atom 230 | 15:30 |
| thewanderer1 | econdudeawesome, what exactly? HTTP? see the protocol RFC | 15:30 |
| econdudeawesome | netcat specficially--im not familiar with the command | 15:30 |
| hawkI | ProjektGhost: CPU overclocking is typically done by altering jumper configs on the MB or by altering certain settings in the CMOS. | 15:30 |
| thewanderer1 | econdudeawesome, netcat [HOST] [PORT] and there you go | 15:31 |
| thewanderer1 | econdudeawesome, I hope you have elinks there | 15:31 |
| thewanderer1 | econdudeawesome, or links at least | 15:31 |
| hawkI | Anyone know how to install the JDK on Ubuntu? | 15:31 |
| thewanderer1 | econdudeawesome, if not then you're better off copying the deb to there and installing some browser | 15:31 |
| robotgunslinger | WLAN DRIVER PROBLEM: i have a belkin usb wifi stick with a "RTL8187B" chip, it works under ubuntu, but it uses the "RTL8187" driver instead of the B one and only does 11 M/s instead of 54 M/s. I tried installing the correct driver using ndiswrapper, and the driver installed fine, but says that the Hardware is not present. how do I fix this? thx | 15:31 |
| thewanderer1 | ader10, it's your router | 15:31 |
| econdudeawesome | thewanderer1 elinks would be sufficient, but I dont think it comes with ubuntu minimal install :-D | 15:31 |
| otswim | hi, i'm running a kubuntu live usb stick; and i'm trying to mount an external hdd to backup my files but i don't know how, i've tried almost every /dev/sdXY with X from a to c and Y from nothing to 3 | 15:32 |
| edbian | otswim, Don't just guess! Take a look at the output of sudo fdisk -l | 15:32 |
| slinker1 | ProjektGhost: tried apt-get install eee-control ? | 15:32 |
| thewanderer1 | econdudeawesome, you have to get any browser on your system, I don't think you'd feel comfortable with writing HTTP requests by hand | 15:32 |
| econdudeawesome | thewanderer1 it would be an experience, for sure | 15:33 |
| edbian | otswim, What folder are you trying to mount them into? | 15:33 |
| otswim | edbian: a freshly created one (/mnt/hdd) | 15:33 |
| ProjektGhost | slinker1: Would that work even if I'm not an eee PC? I've seen that, though. | 15:33 |
| edbian | otswim, Lookin' good. | 15:33 |
| edbian | otswim, Did sudo fdisk -l help? | 15:33 |
| slinker1 | ProjektGhost: hmm possibly what nettop you on? | 15:33 |
| ProjektGhost | Acer Revo 1600 | 15:34 |
| otswim | i think i don't see my external disk in the output of fdisk -l | 15:34 |
| edbian | otswim, That's probably why you can't mount it. Are you sure it's connected? Does it have lights and such? | 15:35 |
| edbian | otswim, How is it connected? USB? | 15:36 |
| otswim | edbian: it has a green light; when i plug it on a windows computer, it's detected every 10 times | 15:36 |
| otswim | usb, yes | 15:36 |
| edbian | otswim, It's connected every 10 times? | 15:36 |
| ikonia | otswim: if you look in /var/log/syslog you'll probably see the usb bus resetting | 15:36 |

| edbian | otswim, Then I suggest you do that. have a look at the end of dmesg. It should change everytime you plug/unplug it. | 15:39 |

| otswim | thewanderer1: i don't have enter then :) | 15:42 |
| thewanderer1 | otswim, neither do I | 15:42 |
| terry | Lizzard88: Which flash player did you install? | 15:42 |
| thewanderer1 | it doesn't exist :P | 15:42 |
| cool | ok ubotty | 15:42 |
| Lizzard88 | adobe | 15:42 |
| terry | Lizzard88: 32bit ? or 64bit? | 15:43 |
| Lizzard88 | hmm | 15:43 |
| tensorpudding | Shoruken: how do you know you were hacked if you didn't see the log? | 15:43 |
| otswim | edbian: it worked now after i plugged it/unplugged it | 15:43 |
| edbian | Shoruken, /var/log/auth.log | 15:43 |
| otswim | or vice versa :p | 15:43 |
| edbian | otswim, Great! :) | 15:43 |
| otswim | but i can't fix it for further use? | 15:43 |
| tensorpudding | /var/log/auth.log has all login information in it | 15:44 |
| Lizzard88 | not sure, I used firefox's plugin finder service | 15:44 |
| Shoruken | tensorpudding, actually I'm sitting here using my desktop, my laptop is in power saving mode screen is off. all the sudden it flickers on, mouse cursor is moving, he basically took control of my desktop | 15:44 |
| Lizzard88 | it didn't specify | 15:44 |
| tensorpudding | but if you were truly hacked, it's conceivable the hacker modified that file | 15:44 |
| edbian | otswim, Like I said. Try re-formatting. | 15:44 |
| Shoruken | firefox changed tabs, loaded a new website without me controlling it | 15:44 |
| otswim | edbian, ok thanks :) | 15:44 |
| terry | Lizzard88: Did you install 32bit Ubuntu or 64bit Ubuntu? | 15:44 |
| Lizzard88 | 32 | 15:44 |
| edbian | Shoruken, What makes you think you were hacked?? | 15:44 |
| cool | in russian irc cnannel people don't speak =( | 15:44 |
| Shoruken | i killed internet immediately and change my user and root passwords | 15:44 |
| tensorpudding | It sounds like you enabled remote desktop | 15:45 |
| terry | Lizzard88: Ok then you have all 32bit applications. | 15:45 |
| Lizzard88 | right | 15:45 |
| ubuntu | My ubuntu10.04 can't log in, who can help me? | 15:45 |

| Shoruken | tensorpudding, i checked for ssh i have no daemon running on this computer, where could i see remote desktop? | 15:45 |
| terry__ | Why is the red exclamatory mark in my right hand corner telling yhat the update information is outdated? | 15:45 |

| Lalon | my whole screen of ubuntu 10.04 become black and after certain time horizontal lighting comes from my dark screen.. to solve the problem i had to restart my pc | 16:10 |
| Kwpolska | econdudeawesome: you can try (from tty1) this: killall gdm; lxdm | 16:10 |
| edbian | glaucous, Awesome! :) | 16:10 |
| terry | ader10: I'm asking if there is already a .deb for the package you have intalled. (If one already exists, why re-create it?) | 16:10 |
| cablop | suppose you open two or three firefox windows but you don't remember in what virtual desktop is each one | 16:10 |
| plushy | bazhang: oh, so I can continue? goo! | 16:11 |
| Lalon | is it ubuntu style or a ubuntu problem | 16:11 |
| Kwpolska | econdudeawesome: note that it will kill X | 16:11 |
| cablop | and you want to see all desktops applications | 16:11 |
| edbian | cablop, Look at the preferences of the window list applet | 16:11 |
| plushy | so the login box shows up, I inpt my pwd and the screen goes black for a while and then gets back to the login screen | 16:11 |
| ader10 | terry: Oh. I created the .deb with checkinstall | 16:11 |
| ader10 | and I removed the .deb that was created and then installed | 16:12 |
| plushy | anyone knows what may cause this? I was just installing jdk so I though it messed the $PATH but it seems okay | 16:12 |

| fedele | I god a strange report from my screensaver. Every time i load it i got this report: starting KTTSD failed. How to solve it? Please help | 16:13 |
| cablop | frustrated, it can show me the loist of all workspaces always, but i just want to see them when i want to | 16:13 |
| coz_ | Archana, did you just enable compiz? | 16:13 |
| edbian | Archana, gnome-panel& in a terminal. Or restart the machine :) | 16:13 |
| progre55 | terry: how do I remove a group now? =) | 16:13 |
| terry | ader10: Oh, ok. If that works, fine. But otherwize I think you use dpkg command with the -b or --build option, to, [I guess you'd say] build one from scratch. | 16:13 |
| fedele | how can i do compiz on in kubuntu>?\ | 16:14 |
| cablop | what i want is, to keep just the buttons of currnet workspace windows, and to be able to see with a popup or something the other workspace windows and which worskpace is each in | 16:14 |

| Archana | edbian, title bar != gnome panel | 16:14 |
| mattias_ | Hi, I installed 10.04 yesterday and it works quite well. The only thing is that while the resolution seems okay, all apps is using huge fonts etc. Anyone knows a fix? | 16:14 |
| coz_ | fedele, first go into the system settings Desktop effects and disable that | 16:14 |
| Archana | coz_, Hi, I all the compiz effects work. | 16:14 |
| revarr | hmm how do I get my hotkeys for volume to work again with XUbuntu 10.4 on my comp? | 16:14 |
| fedele | ok | 16:14 |
| terry | progre55: groupdel | 16:14 |
| abhijit | Archana, add this line to your startup aps : gtk-window-decorator | 16:14 |
| edbian | Archana, Then what is the title bar? | 16:14 |
| Archana | coz_, Title bar was there. My dad restarted to enter windows xp.. And now, i am in ubuntu and i don't get title bar for all windows.. it starts from main menu. | 16:15 |
| coz_ | fedele, then sudo apt-get install fusion-icon then start up compiz with the command fusion-icon and that icon should show up in the system tray | 16:15 |
| mattias_ | btw I'm using ati propriotary drivers | 16:15 |
| coz_ | Archana, did you install compizconfig-settings-manager | 16:15 |
| fedele | ok nks but i have that | 16:15 |
| === Termana_ is now known as Termana | ||
| fedele | thanks but i have ttha | 16:15 |

| fedele | *that* | 16:15 |
| Archana | coz_, I have it. And all the rotate cube effects , expo and others. | 16:15 |
| coz_ | Archana, is this gnome or kde? | 16:15 |
| xxx_ | 16:16 | |
| Archana | edbian, Title bar = the bar which has the title of the window.. which also has window controls.. :( | 16:16 |

| coz_ | raidghost, system/preferences/appearance Visual effects tab | 16:17 |
| Archana | coz_, windows decorations is ON | 16:17 |
| edbian | Archana, If you're using compiz take a look at the window decorations plugin in ccsm | 16:17 |
| Archana | coz_, wait i execute that command. | 16:17 |
| bandeira | i have a computer with remote access, but i'm not able to type on my computer. what's goin' wrong? | 16:17 |
| Archana | edbian, it's ON | 16:17 |
| pzn | to what group should I add an user? I need it to be able to configure eth0 IP address via ubuntu network manager | 16:17 |
| boo_ | I hope this isn't irrelevant, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a software that would allow any given person to view a database of a computer from a completely different area of the country. | 16:17 |
| raidghost | coz_: i didnt think of the virtual effects tab | 16:17 |
| terry | bandeira: can you elaborate on that just a bit? | 16:17 |

| coz_ | Archana, no problem now open ccsm | 16:18 |
| Archana | edbian, coz_'s cmmand has worked B-) | 16:18 |
| edbian | Archana, Good! :) | 16:18 |
| Archana | Archana, And? | 16:18 |
| coz_ | Archana, then click on the window decoration plugin to get into it's settings and in the "Command" field tell me what is there | 16:18 |
| raidghost | its a unlucky card i know. ATI Technologies Inc M26 [Radeon Mobility X700 XL | 16:18 |

| Lalon | my whole screen of ubuntu 10.04 become black and after certain time horizontal lighting comes from my dark screen.. to solve the problem i had to restart my pc | 16:18 |
| terry | bandeira: Tell us specifically what you are trying to do and what exactly is not working for you. | 16:18 |
| bandeira | it's a computer from my LAN.. i can access it remotely.. i can move its mouse, but i can't type.. it's all about what i'm trying to do. | 16:18 |
| boo_ | iceroot: or just the country, yes. | 16:18 |
| coz_ | Archana, ok then it was some gltch if this happens again come into #compiz and let me know | 16:19 |
| iceroot | boo_: mysql, postgres | 16:19 |
| Archana | coz_, Do you remember me ? I was the one for whom you gave your ccsm settings on the #compiz channel | 16:19 |
| boo_ | iceroot: thank you so much. | 16:19 |
| coz_ | Archana, oh yes still using them? | 16:19 |
| ader10 | How do I see what will be installed from a metapackage without executing an install command | 16:19 |
| iceroot | ader10: apt-get install packagename -s | 16:19 |
| Archana | coz_, I changed a little. | 16:19 |
| coz_ | Archana, well of course... thats' what you are suppose to do :) | 16:19 |
| terry | bandeira: Still not sure about your situation but see that the keyboard is plugged in securely. Is it on a KVM by any chance? | 16:20 |
| ader10 | iceroot: But I already have the package installed | 16:20 |
| Archana | coz_, Is there any other alternatives to compiz for visual effects? | 16:20 |
| coz_ | Archana, mm you mean like another window manager??? | 16:20 |
| Lalon | how can i see my pc config in my ubuntu | 16:20 |
| cablop | thereá an applet for that!! :) | 16:20 |
| abhijit | Lalon, install sysinfo | 16:20 |
| Archana | coz_, soreau helped to create a "any" on obs with transparency for all windows.... | 16:21 |
| coz_ | Archana, ok | 16:21 |
| glaucous | How would "mount --bind /dev/shm/tmp /tmp" look like in /etc/fstab? | 16:21 |
| Archana | coz_, and i set it too low that all windows disappeared :P . and then soreau again helped me to get that back .. hahahaha .. it was on the only admin account on this ubunut :P | 16:21 |
| Lalon | abhijit: how big is that file | 16:21 |
| Archana | coz_, Yes. | 16:21 |
| abhijit | Lalon, not much | 16:22 |
| Archana | coz_, like ccsm | 16:22 |
| terry | bandeira: Basically, what you are saying is that the mouse works but not the keyboard? And is that when you are at the PC's own mouse and keyboard? | 16:22 |
| SuNk8 | guys, how can I update my GRUB2 installed on a separate partition when I don't have Ubuntu installed? | 16:22 |
| dajhorn | glaucous: Why do you want to do this? If you mount several tmpfs points, then they all use the same memory efficiently. | 16:22 |
| coz_ | Archana, well there are other window managers , however. none have the "effects" that compiz does...they are tiling window managers like xmonad but again none with the kind of effects compiz has | 16:22 |
| iceroot | ader10: apt-rdepends packagename | 16:22 |
| coz_ | Archana, there is mutter with gnome3 coming up but even that is extremely limited and with the advent of compiz , mutter seems childish | 16:23 |
| Archana | SuNk8, using a ubuntu live cd? | 16:23 |
| astrojp | What's some of the better software to use in order to make a video with music in the background, i guess you'd call it a music video..nothing too fancy... | 16:23 |
| glaucous | dajhorn, thought it might be easier to keep track of them | 16:23 |
| Archana | coz_, :-) thanks for the info! | 16:23 |
| revarr | how do I get my hot keys for my acer aspire 5740 to control volume | 16:23 |
| SuNk8 | Archana, but, it is not possible to use the update-grub command as all /dev are not mounted... | 16:23 |
| revarr | the hot keys work for everything else | 16:23 |
| bandeira | terry: no.. just when i access it remotely.. when i'm hooking u | 16:23 |
| glaucous | dajhorn, but I guess I could mount several instead | 16:23 |
| erUSUL | astrojp: avidemux; openshot; pitivi ... | 16:23 |
| bandeira | terry: no.. just when i access it remotely.. when i'm hooking it up, i can type and move | 16:23 |
| dajhorn | glaucous: Don't do this, especially under /dev/. | 16:23 |
| coz_ | Archana, no problem... you know where to find me and soreau when necessary :) | 16:24 |
| coz_ | be right back | 16:24 |
| revarr | other than brightness (which shows the bar change but no effect other than a small flicker) | 16:24 |
| terry | bandeira: What are you using to access it? VNC? | 16:24 |
| glaucous | dajhorn, why not? /dev/shm is the default ram drive? | 16:24 |
| bandeira | terry: yes.. now it's working fine! | 16:24 |
| bandeira | :D | 16:24 |
| SuNk8 | Archana, I am running just SUSE and Fedora with GRUB2 installed using Ubuntu. I was hoping to run grub-mkconfig using the grub prompt... Can any1 please help me? | 16:24 |
| bandeira | terry: i've just kicked it. | 16:25 |
| dajhorn | glaucous: Not really. Having multiple tmpfs mounts in the /etc/fstab is perfectly efficient. You won't get any performance or management benefit from trying to use /dev/shm. | 16:25 |
| astrojp | erUSUL: thanks. | 16:25 |
| Archana | SuNk8, Good Luck | 16:25 |
| dajhorn | glaucous: Having /tmp in a tmpfs can be good. Most programs use that for temporary space by default. | 16:25 |
| progre55 | how to see the owner of a process in the process list? (ps) | 16:25 |
| SuNk8 | Archana, :-( | 16:25 |
| glaucous | dajhorn, okay then I'll do that. Got some error when using the mount tmpfs command, hang on.. | 16:25 |
| terry | bandeira: O, good... (I think). (I don't normally kick my computers, but....may need to try that sometime.) | 16:25 |
| erUSUL | progre55: ps u | 16:25 |
| dajhorn | glaucous: You won't be able to change some mounts while the system is running. Add /tmp to the /etc/fstab file, clean out /tmp, and reboot. | 16:26 |
| progre55 | erUSUL: no, I dont mean my own processes, but if a specific process was run by root or me | 16:26 |
| erUSUL | progre55: ps au | 16:26 |
| edbian | progre55, ps -e | 16:27 |
| erUSUL | or ps -ef | 16:27 |
| bandeira | terry: yeah! it's an old one actually.. i don't have that love for it anymore. | 16:27 |
| terry | progre55: ps aux | 16:27 |
| progre55 | oh, thanks ) | 16:27 |
| === emc_ is now known as emc | ||
| glaucous | dajhorn, anyhow I did not get any error when mounting new tmpfs mounts. When I have added /tmp to the fstab, should I REMOVE /tmp or just clean the folder? | 16:27 |
| terry | bandeira: Ok, well, I guess I'm just a sentimental old fool :) | 16:28 |
| === MK-BB is now known as MK|BNC | ||
| Oins | Hi, i have a simple test script (http://pastebin.com/PnmsrZpG) at /etc/cron.hourly. For testing i tried run-parts /etc/cron.hourly but nothing happnes. any clue? | 16:28 |
| Sary | terry__: | 16:28 |
| dajhorn | glaucous: The /tmp directory itself must exist for the fstab to work properly. Just delete the contents of /tmp, otherwise it will be hidden underneath the tmpfs mount and you'll waste the disk space. | 16:28 |
| glaucous | dajhorn, okay that makes sense, thanks. | 16:29 |
| glaucous | dajhorn, size=default, that'll set it to 50% of my RAM, correct? | 16:29 |
| bandeira | terry: do you know if it's possible to have remote access not only locally? | 16:29 |
| glaucous | dajhorn, or not setting size at all | 16:29 |
| noob_69 | hello | 16:30 |
| noob_69 | It is me again | 16:30 |
| terry | bandeira: Well, that depends on your isp and your router's port forwarding capabilities etc... | 16:30 |
| terry | bandeira: .....but in short, yes. | 16:30 |
| Sary | noob_69: Hello & welcome back | 16:31 |
| dajhorn | glaucous: Yes, that is the default. You don't need to specify it, though. | 16:31 |
| dajhorn | glaucous: Let the kernel manage it unless you've got a good reason to set it manually. | 16:31 |
| noob_69 | during an electrical storm i was using my PC, then a lighting bolt striked near my house, and had a blackout, i do not have a breaker, so my 5amp multicontact box burned | 16:31 |
| === bnnd is now known as _bnd_ | ||
| noob_69 | and no, when i try to acces internet, it wont llet | 16:32 |
| noob_69 | let me | 16:32 |
| === _bnd_ is now known as bnnd | ||
| glaucous | dajhorn, okay great. Then I'll just write "none" below <options> in fstab? | 16:32 |
| noob_69 | it works in this tiny pink netbook | 16:32 |
| noob_69 | but not in my PC, the one it was turned on during the electrical storm | 16:33 |
| Zetx | hello, is there any recovery of a raid when you accidentally create a new raid with the same hdd's as an old one? the new raid isn't formatted or anything so it's still got all the old data, mount is just telling me that i have the wrong fs type (b/c it hasn't been formatted) | 16:33 |
| dajhorn | glaucous: No, use "defaults". | 16:33 |
| glaucous | dajhorn, oh okay | 16:33 |
| noob_69 | so, is there a way to know if the internet plug is messed up? | 16:33 |
| dajhorn | glaucous: Be cautious and precise. A bad fstab file can make your system unbootable. | 16:33 |
| coz_ | Zetx, if no one can help here you could also try the ## linux channel ..they have a broader base of info | 16:33 |
| rob_p | "internet plug" :-) | 16:34 |
| Zetx | kk thanks | 16:34 |
| terry | noob_69: Look at the router or the pc and see if it lights up when you plug it in. | 16:34 |
| glaucous | dajhorn, right. Does spaces/tab matter? | 16:34 |
| dajhorn | glaucous: No. Use what you prefer. | 16:34 |
| scorchgeek | I'm trying to set up a static IP address on my desktop so I can use ssh. If I try to go into the network manager applet on the panel and reset the IP, nothing happens. If I turn off the DHCP server on my router and reboot, my IP address changes to what I set, but I can't access the internet. What am I missing? | 16:35 |
| noob_69 | Ubuntu should recongnize it right away, am i right? | 16:35 |
| thewanderer1 | scorchgeek, a gateway | 16:35 |
| RedSky32 | would anyone happen know the name of this engine that this theme uses http://gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre3/127730-3.png ?? | 16:35 |
| slinker1 | scorchgeek: or dns | 16:36 |
| scorchgeek | so what do I need to do to fix it? | 16:36 |
| terry | scorchgeek: You can leave the router's DHCP server turned on, just use an IP address that is outside the DHCP pool. | 16:36 |
| thewanderer1 | scorchgeek, can't you just add a static binding on your DHCP server? | 16:36 |
| scorchgeek | I did that, do I need to reboot after that? | 16:36 |
| scorchgeek | thewanderer1: that's where you set the mac address to use an ip? I read about that but my router doesn't have an option for that | 16:36 |
| edbian | scorchgeek, If you give yourself a static IP you must also give yourself a DNS server :) | 16:37 |
| thewanderer1 | schorgeek, okay, so you need to set up DNS address and a gateway for it to work statically | 16:37 |
| erUSUL | and gateaway | 16:37 |
| rob_p | scorchgeek: ...and a default gateway | 16:37 |
| scorchgeek | how do I do that | 16:37 |
| terry | scorchgeek: But you may need to turn off the network manager and dissable it and edit /etc/network/interfaces file | 16:37 |
| erUSUL | scorchgeek: in the ipv4 tab you can set the conf to manual and enter ip/netmask/gataway and dns | 16:38 |
| scorchgeek | so the gateway is the address of the router right? and then I just need to put in a dns server and it should work? | 16:38 |
| erUSUL | scorchgeek: the ipv4 tab is right clicking in network manager choosing edit connections. wired choose the correct iface | 16:38 |
| erUSUL | correct | 16:38 |
| Lalon | is there anything like download speed and uploading speed showing meter in ubuntu? | 16:38 |
| scorchgeek | right got that | 16:38 |
| scorchgeek | ok I'll try that | 16:39 |
| terry | scorchgeek: correct | 16:39 |
| bazhang | Lalon, perhaps in conky if you configure it correctly | 16:39 |
| Oins | Found the failure. The cronjob script must not end with the ending .sh. Does anyone know why? | 16:39 |
| dajhorn | Lalon: The gnome system monitor panel can show you. | 16:39 |
| Oins | After renaming backup.sh to backup it worked | 16:39 |
| terry | scorchgeek: As long as the router's caching nameserver is on, you can use it's address as nameserver, (and it's usually on by default). | 16:39 |
| Lalon | bazhang: how to see that in gnome system monitor | 16:39 |
| resno | Oins: i have .sh end on my cron without issue | 16:39 |
| Oins | resno: hmm... which ubuntu version do u use? | 16:40 |

| === Spec[x] is now known as Spec | ||

| resno | robacarp: all bluetooth devices have pins. try 4 0's | 16:42 |
| Lalon | dajhorn: hey how to see that meter | 16:42 |
| Oins | resno: sure. and as manuall call, it worked. but the run-parts didn't worked | 16:42 |
| Lalon | so many nicks here | 16:42 |
| Lalon | :s | 16:42 |
| robacarp | yea, I tried 0000 1234 abcd etc | 16:42 |
| econdudeawesome | How would I package elinks with an ubuntu minimal install? I won't have access to APT until I can authenticate with a network, which can only be done via browers/HTTP request on the network, and I don't know HTTP requests... | 16:42 |
| Oins | resno: after renaming the backup.sh to backup, the script starts correctly | 16:42 |
| dajhorn | Lalon: Add the GNOME System Monitor to your GNOME Panel with a right-click. | 16:42 |
| rob_p | Oins: According to the manpage, "...the names must consist entirely of upper and lower case letters, digits, underscores, and hyphens." <-- referring to the script names being run with the run-parts tool. | 16:42 |
| Lalon | dajhorn: okk lemem see | 16:43 |
| Lalon | lemme | 16:43 |
| thewanderer1 | econdudeawesome, download it from packages.ubuntu.com, put it on a pendrive along with all dependencies, and install with dpkg from there | 16:43 |
| econdudeawesome | thewanderer1 you rock man, I appreciate it | 16:43 |
| rob_p | Oins: So unless you specify --regex or --lsbsysinit when you use run-parts, the name has constraints. | 16:43 |
| === scorchgeek_ is now known as scorchgeek | ||
| Oins | rob_p: ok, so no dot is allowed, right? | 16:44 |
| scorchgeek | I did what you suggested, and my router still shows my IP as what it was before, but ifconfig shows what I changed it to. Is this anything to be worried about? | 16:45 |
| rob_p | Oins: According to the manpage, yup! :-) | 16:45 |
| Oins | rob_p: without the regex para | 16:45 |
| thewanderer1 | scorchgeek, no, home routers are dumb by nature | 16:45 |
| terry | scorchgeek: Many routers have the option to set a static IP for any particular PC. You might want to use that option. | 16:45 |
| scorchgeek | thewanderer1: ok great thanks | 16:45 |
| thewanderer1 | terry, he said his didn't have such one | 16:45 |
| Oins | rob_p: strange that it works for resno ;) | 16:45 |
| rob_p | Oins: I must admit, I didn't know that before but I was curious when you said that changing the name made a difference, so I looked it up! | 16:46 |
| terry | scorchgeek: What you are probably seeing is a old entry. If you reboot the router that will probably change. | 16:46 |
| scorchgeek | all right good | 16:46 |

| terry | scorchgeek: The lease is still active for that PC's nic, (in other words), even though it is not using that IP address, it is still in there and reserved for it. | 16:47 |

| stanley_robertso | abhijit, hi | 16:47 |
| phpmyadm1n | hi# | 16:47 |

| Guest57863 | are any of you guys having trouble installing your printer under ubuntu 10.04? | 16:47 |
| scorchgeek | terry: ok, so that's what happened when I couldn't get it to switch back to the ip it was on before | 16:47 |
| scorchgeek | thanks. | 16:47 |
| abhijit | hello stanley_robertso | 16:47 |

| flan_suse | Not sure why, but is there any reason ZSNES is not available in 64-bit? What would a 64-bit user need to do to install / use ZSNES? | 16:49 |
| stanley_robertso | abhijit, .. i have installed ubuntu 9.10 and then upgraded to 10 series.. on virtual box.. When i install the GuestAddons .. and reboot.. nothing is coming/showing up .. except a blank screen. Can somebody help me ? | 16:49 |
| thewanderer1 | flan_suse, ZSNES is 32-bit because it needs to emulate a different hardware architecture performing low-level memory operations | 16:50 |
| erUSUL | flan_suse: maybe it is rddle with 32 bit assembly code ? | 16:50 |
| stanley_robertso | abhijit, ignore the last words "can somebody help me " :) | 16:50 |
| terry | scorchgeek: I just use a switch and have built my own [linux] router from a PC with multiple NICs and I have a pretty nice feature-rich setup that way. | 16:50 |
| flan_suse | thewanderer1, but Snes9x is available in 64-bit as a .deb on the repository. | 16:50 |
| phpmyadm1n | terry: lol why | 16:50 |
| thewanderer1 | flan_suse, I guess it uses some 32-bit libs | 16:51 |
| abhijit | stanley_robertso, i dunno what is guestaddon | 16:51 |
| thewanderer1 | I might be wrong anyway | 16:51 |
| alan` | what changes do i have to make to make a LTSP Server work with one nic? | 16:51 |
| flan_suse | thewanderer1, erUSUL, even if it's a 32-bit application, it requires 32-bit libraries to run, is there a way to install it regardless, on a 64-bit Ubuntu? | 16:51 |
| phpmyadm1n | terry: what feature set can't you get using a nice and cheap broadcom embedded system? | 16:51 |
| terry | phpmyadm1n: A lot of reasons. | 16:51 |
| phpmyadm1n | terry: such as? | 16:51 |
| thewanderer1 | flan_suse, look for 32-bit libs in packages, like ia32-libs | 16:51 |
| stanley_robertso | abhijit, where did you install the ubuntu .. as separate OS or on virtual box ? | 16:51 |
| terry | phpmyadm1n: Too many to mention. | 16:52 |
| thewanderer1 | stanley_robertso, check VirtualBox site, system support and mailing lists | 16:52 |
| abhijit | stanley_robertso, my main os | 16:52 |
| phpmyadm1n | terry: baring in mind you can obviously run linux on most routers | 16:52 |
| === MK|BNC is now known as MK-BB | ||
| flan_suse | thewanderer1, but there is no way I can tell apt or synaptic to grab the 32-bit .deb from the repository? "zsnes" does not even show up as a search result. | 16:52 |
| terry | phpmyadm1n: SOME routers. | 16:52 |
| woodyjlw | can you download a mac osx image for virtualbox/ | 16:52 |
| phpmyadm1n | terry: most. | 16:52 |
| thewanderer1 | terry, what hardware setup? | 16:53 |
| flan_suse | thewanderer1, or grabbing the i386 .deb manually is the only way to install it? (I thought there might be a trick from within the package manager on installing i386 debs.) | 16:53 |
| thewanderer1 | terry, do you know whether any dual-port NIC function as two NIC's in the system? | 16:53 |
| === nick_ is now known as Guest29107 | ||
| sipior | woodyjlw: no, though apparently vmware fusion supports osx server, from version 2.0. | 16:54 |
| terry | thewanderer1: What? | 16:54 |
| astra-x | alright so has anyone solved an error with / ext4 leaking? | 16:54 |
| sipior | astra-x: what sort of error? | 16:54 |
| stanley_robertso | thewanderer1, i tried out .. nothing is mentioned there .. in virtualbox chat.. they are asking me to refer to ubuntu group :( | 16:54 |
| terry | thewanderer1: Oh, well, yea, I'm sure they do. Just edpends on the device. I've never used one tho. | 16:55 |
| thewanderer1 | stanley_robertso, check the console in Ubuntu guest | 16:55 |
| thewanderer1 | and read X logs | 16:55 |
| thewanderer1 | terry, can you comment on the bridging performance? | 16:55 |
| astra-x | sipior: my reported free disk space says full, yet last week it was 60G free on /, and I cannot find anymore than 29G of files | 16:55 |
| savid | What's a good way to monitor a service to make sure it keeps running (ie, restart it if it crashes)? | 16:55 |
| stanley_robertso | i tried to give "ctrl+alt+f1" .. so that i can try to bring up the console .. but even that is not coming up | 16:55 |
| econdudeawesome | Does Ubuntu Server Edition come with a browser preinstalled? | 16:55 |
| astra-x | sipior: yet /home and /boot are reported correctly | 16:56 |
| stanley_robertso | thewanderer1, just after the initial screen .. it just goes to blank. | 16:56 |
| sipior | astra-x: how are you getting the disk space information? | 16:56 |
| terry | thewanderer1: It is great. I can not explain why but every one I've installed has resulted in higher preformance. | 16:56 |

| jpds | glaucous: It usually creates Flash* files in there. | 16:58 |
| terry | thewanderer1: Well, as far as linux routers, I would go with strictly a linux router distro like ipcop or smoothwall etc. | 16:59 |
| glaucous | jpds, Oh I see, I guess the .macromedia folder is just for saved settings, cookies and so on | 16:59 |
| econdudeawesome | where would I look to see what packages are included in the ubuntu-minimal iso? | 17:00 |
| thewanderer1 | terry, actually, smoothwall scares me away, it's so dumbed-down I prefer shorewall to it | 17:00 |

| dante123 | hi all, livecd properly detects my Acer x193w and allows 1440x900 resolution.....install 10.04.....resolution works well.......run some updates and install apps.....then lose my 1440x900 resolution and it says Uknown Monitor.....please help! | 17:13 |
| sipior | astra-x: i would say ensure that your data is safe first, and then see about recreating the array (or maybe try to recreate the filesystem first) | 17:13 |
| sipior | astra-x: it's not clear to me at which level the problem actually resides. | 17:13 |
| astra-x | sipior: well the data i care about is on /home, so i could just reinstall. though this seems like a bug--and i don't care for filesystem bugs on my workstations | 17:13 |
| astra-x | sipior: could you suggest a further path of debugging? | 17:14 |
| KB1JWQ | Stameni: You rang? | 17:14 |
| astra-x | sipior: fsck is clean | 17:14 |

| littlepenguin | someone knows how to start a fullscreen app on display 1 or on Display 2??? | 17:14 |
| Stameni | KB1JWQ, i don`t understand what are you asking me | 17:15 |
| sipior | astra-x: if you're not planning on sharing the array across operating systems, you might consider a standard mdadm software raid device. | 17:15 |
| dante123 | how can livecd detect monitor (Acer x193w) and allow 1440x900 resolution.....but after update.....system loses its mind and won't let me go 1440x900 which is definetly supported by monitor | 17:15 |

| Jinxed- | im trying to backup a cisco config and need a tftp server... what is the easiest way to do this in 10.04? I already added tftpd but dont' see an application anywhere | 18:25 |
| {Millennium} | could i have spellchek for two leangluages at the same time in Ubuntu? | 18:25 |
| thewanderer1 | Jinxed-, you're not supposed to see anything... get down to the console | 18:26 |
| Denis | People plz help me: I get the error message "Could not update /home/denis/.ICEauthority" at each boot up of 10.04. Faced this problem after an update.. | 18:26 |
| Denis | I chmoded the file to 777, didn't help | 18:26 |
| violinappren | {Millennium}: yes but it's up to individual applications to let you select the language | 18:26 |
| aeon-ltd | Beyecixramd: its been changed since grub2 :), you shouldn't edit that file its supposedly more automagic now and you shouldn't need to add kernels etc | 18:26 |
| Beyecixramd | aeon-ltd: well i want to add stuff to the kernle line | 18:27 |
| Beyecixramd | aeon-ltd: kernel* | 18:27 |
| Jinxed- | thewanderer1: what do you mean? i have only ever used a tftp app in windows in it was gui | 18:27 |
| {Millennium} | Violinappren: in lenguage settings ? | 18:27 |
| thewanderer1 | Jinxed-, I see, that's going to be a problem for you then :P | 18:27 |
| thewanderer1 | Jinxed-, I don't think we have graphical tftp server in Ubuntu | 18:28 |
| aeon-ltd | Beyecixramd: feel free, but when a kernel update happens you may have to re append or whenever you run grub-update | 18:28 |
| violinappren | Denis: sudo chmod denis:denis /home/denis/.ICEauthority | 18:28 |
| thewanderer1 | Jinxed-, you can find tftpd config in /etc/default/ | 18:28 |

| violinappren | Denis: ls -al .ICEauthority | 18:30 |
| violinappren | and paste the resulting line | 18:30 |
| Beyecixramd | Guest57863: okay, close your program you want to print with, plug in your printer and open your program again | 18:30 |
| Beyecixramd | Guest57863: in the printing dialog, your printer should appear | 18:30 |
| thewanderer1 | Jinxed-, try it with tftpd-hpa | 18:30 |
| thewanderer1 | Jinxed-, remove tftpd and go for tftpd-hpa | 18:31 |
| thewanderer1 | Jinxed-, then you'll find a config file for it in /etc/defaults | 18:31 |
| {Millennium} | violinappren: what kind of individual applications? | 18:31 |
| Guest57863 | where is this printing dialog? I get an "error with printing window" members.home.nl/v.vanbruchem/error.gif Beyecixramd | 18:31 |
| {Millennium} | where i can find them ;D | 18:31 |
| Brack10 | hey so I set my sysklogd init.d script to run "-r -m0", but when I use ps, it shows /sbin/syslogd -u syslog...does that mean it's not running with the args I tell it to? | 18:32 |
| violinappren | {Millennium}: applications that support spell checking, like pidgin or abiword | 18:32 |
| Beyecixramd | Guest57863: depends on your program | 18:32 |
| {Millennium} | violinappren: thanks | 18:32 |

| Brack10 | hey so I set my sysklogd init.d script to run "-r -m0", but when I use ps, it shows /sbin/syslogd -u syslog...does that mean it's not running with the args I tell it to? | 18:55 |

| resno | whats your problem somaunn_ | 18:56 |
| mdw11 | eurgh | 18:56 |
| erUSUL | ubuntu-usr: yes you can tell the tools what size you want (even in bytes) but they will round up that to the nearest clilinder boundaries no matter what and you will get a partition close but not exactly the size you wanted | 18:56 |
| mdw11 | so what are you supposed to do if apt-get can't find the deb files for an upgrade? | 18:56 |
| Jordan_U | ubuntu-usr: For best allignment your partitions should start at a megabyte boundry, and there's nothing wrong with having a partition that is slightly larger than the filesystem it holds. | 18:56 |

| calamari | hi. I used System > Preferences > Monitors to extend my desktop across my two monitors. This worked great, but I only have Gnome panels on one monitor, and I'd prefer to have a panel on both (doesn't have to be the same panel). Can I do this? | 19:13 |
| ActionParsnip | oliver_: there are options, none are best, none are worst | 19:13 |
| Scunizi | ActionParsnip: how do you mean "proper" dns cache? I'm trying to resolv slow connections to known sites | 19:13 |

| persian007 | hi | 19:14 |
| oliver_ | ActionParsnip: you have right but which are most used? | 19:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Scunizi: you can run a local dns service on your system. it will remember resolutions and speed up the web. If the thing you are accessing has a static IP you can add it in /etc/hsost | 19:14 |
| Guest57863 | Sary my printer works! :D | 19:14 |

| cablop | i want to stop both shell and gnome to ask my password when doing sudo tasks | 19:16 |
| Ebuntu | cablop not a good idea | 19:16 |
| ActionParsnip | cablop: you can use: sudo -i and get a root shell. BE VERY CAREFUL with it, it has much power | 19:16 |
| ^peanut^ | cablop: that defeats the purpose of sudo | 19:16 |
| cablop | why not a good idea? | 19:16 |
| oliver_ | sporto: openshot looks ncice | 19:17 |
| ^peanut^ | cablop: because you can trash your entire system if you don't know what your doing | 19:17 |

| Pici | cablop: you really should read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo to understand why sudo acts the way it does before you go ripping it out of your system. | 19:19 |
| cablop | Ebuntu, hackers need to enter system as ME to crash my system, and they can if i give them my password, and if they have my password, then to ask for MY password at sudo is useless | 19:19 |
| ActionParsnip | cablop: once the system is setup you rarely need sudo at all | 19:19 |

| MJRP | Ebuntu, jesus christ... Is that even possible :O | 19:21 |
| ^peanut^ | cablop: oh heck, if I was next to your computer, on or off. I wouldn't need anything other than my own wits to get access to all your data without your account or roots. not all that hard. sudo is ment to be a saftey tool so that new users don't break the system before they understand it.. =) | 19:21 |
| cablop | but also it renders sudo useless again, my brother just enters my sesion, and use my password to mess the system... so sude bacame useless again.... :( | 19:21 |

| mahioo | pici thank you | 19:25 |
| ^peanut^ | cablop: not sure if ubuntu will let you, but you can run (sudo root or root), visudo which will edit /etc/sudoers file (ubuntu not sure). then you can add a statement like: username ALL = /usr/bin/su [! -]*, !/usr/bin/su *root*, /usr/bin/su username,!SU, !SHELLS, !VISUDO, !REBOOT, !INIT which will disable those root commands via sudo | 19:25 |
| mahioo | ubottu also | 19:25 |

| ghis|home | think** | 19:51 |
| geri | edbian, oh it says: Ubuntu 7.04 \n \l | 19:51 |
| ^peanut^ | cablop: download a *.tgz of firefox and extract it to a usb stick, then run it from there. | 19:51 |
| coz_ | ghis|home, well you could if this is gnome hit alt+F2 and tyep metacity --replace | 19:51 |
| coz_ | ghis|home, if kde kwin --replace | 19:51 |
| soreau | ghis|home: Try the open radeon driver by uninstalling fglrx | 19:51 |
| edbian | geri, There ya go. You're on ubuntu 7.04 That's from April 2007. It's not supported anymore. The mirrors that you're trying to access no longer have Ubuntu 7.04 there anymore :( | 19:51 |
| geri | edbian, oh;( cant i install eclipse? | 19:52 |
| xshyamx | hi all, after installing updates day before yesterday when I restarted my ubuntu 10.04 I does not boot correctly | 19:52 |
| ^peanut^ | geri: try #ubuntu+1 irc channel | 19:52 |
| ghis|home | okay thanks guys now i have some things to try | 19:52 |
| xshyamx | I get the message 'fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2 /dev/sdax clean etc' and the system remains hung | 19:52 |
| edbian | geri, Not for ubuntu 7.04 repos. Because those repos don't exist anymore ;) | 19:52 |
| coz_ | ghis|home, also this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=594002&page=2 | 19:52 |
| secleinteer | geri: just download it from the eclipse site | 19:52 |
| edbian | geri, You can't get eclipse for windows 95 anymore either ;) | 19:52 |
| secleinteer | if you have all the deps | 19:52 |
| coz_ | ghis|home, last post on that page if it is only firefox being effected | 19:53 |
| xshyamx | not hung exactly I can reboot pressing ctrl+alt+del but, thats all I'm able to do | 19:53 |
| ghis|home | coz_, metacity --replace didn't help anyway.. | 19:53 |
| geri | secleinteer, but how about the dependencies? | 19:53 |
| coz_ | ghis|home, ooooo | 19:53 |
| edbian | geri, You could download it from there site. Not sure if they have a .deb! | 19:53 |
| forceflo1 | you don't need a deb for eclipse | 19:53 |
| forceflo1 | just download it from the website | 19:53 |
| geri | usually not? | 19:53 |
| hwilde | hello is there a way to download a list of packages from the website http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty | 19:53 |
| forceflo1 | just extract the file, navigate to the directory and run ./eclipse | 19:53 |
| secleinteer | geri: yeah, that's why i said if you have them | 19:54 |
| === forceflo1 is now known as forceflow | ||
| lokpest | is there any lightweight ubuntu derivative for netbooks that dont have a shitload of software on it? | 19:54 |
| hwilde | I have a windows box that is online and I need to download a whole list of packages to copy to an ubuntu box that is offline help | 19:54 |
| ghis|home | i will try the open radeon driver as soreau suggested... | 19:54 |
| forceflow | lokpest: UNR + apt-get remove? :) | 19:54 |
| ^peanut^ | geri: you might need to use an older version of eclipse to run on 7.04. | 19:54 |
| edbian | geri, Yeah, what they're saying probably will work. I strongly suggest you update to a newer version of Ubuntu :) | 19:54 |
| lokpest | like open office, why would I want that on a netbook? | 19:54 |
| forceflow | lokpest: some people need it ... | 19:55 |
| geri | did someone of you install tinyos on linux? | 19:55 |
| lokpest | forceflow: that feels like the wrong aproach | 19:55 |
| edbian | geri, Never heard of tinyos | 19:55 |
| forceflow | lokpest: most certainly | 19:55 |
| forceflow | lokpest: you could mix together your own netbook remix install | 19:55 |
| lokpest | forceflow: on their netbook? | 19:55 |
| forceflow | lokpest: yeah, what's wrong with that? | 19:55 |
| forceflow | don't use it myself, but I recall openoffice running pretty fine on my eee pc | 19:56 |
| lokpest | forceflow: I uses open office on my regular laptop from time to time, but on a netbook? | 19:56 |

| lokpest | give me a terminal and firefox | 19:57 |
| lokpest | thats all I need | 19:57 |
| coz_ | lokpest, on way around "some" of the preinstall stuff is to use the minimal install cd | 19:58 |
| oohazard | the way: (if someone want to know) remove the libflashplayer.so from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins (if there is one) | 19:58 |
| coz_ | lokpest, although it still installs much | 19:58 |
| cablop | thanks ^peanut^ | 19:58 |

| ^peanut^ | cablop: your welcome | 19:58 |
| oohazard | and put it in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/ | 19:58 |
| cablop | well, another question, can i set a upper CPU % limit to a process, say it... i don'twant for it to eat more than 50%? | 19:58 |
| coz_ | lokpest, however with the minimal install cd you can install what you want including "no" desktop enviornment | 19:58 |
| oohazard | this is not version 10.1 but that make youtube video works :) | 19:59 |
| ^peanut^ | cablop: try "renice +20 (process id) in a terminal. | 19:59 |

| oohazard | iceroot : ? | 20:00 |
| edbian | lokpest, "Gimmie a terminal and firefox!" | 20:00 |
| cablop | mmm maybe i can change the priority through htop... but i want for it to run at full speed but with an upper limit | 20:01 |
| iceroot | oohazard: just use the 32bit flash with the 64bit wrapper | 20:01 |
| oohazard | it does not work | 20:01 |
| cablop | in fact what i want is to limit how much a vm can consume | 20:01 |

| Belserusk | Hi. Today a friend asked me about his laptop. It would not boot up. It started and there was no display. The CD part seemed to make a repeated noise. The only way to power off was to remove the battery or plug out. Any idea on what is wrong with it? Also I tried booting from a CD, no luck. | 20:04 |
| ridin | enzotib, thanks | 20:05 |
| iceroot | Belserusk: sound like a hardware-problem | 20:05 |
| cablop | ^peanut^: trying to run win7 inside vbox on ubuntu, it keeps just reaching 90% for a few moments, but that's enough to make firefox stop working for that time | 20:05 |
| enzotib | ridin: be aware that does not manage the trash bin | 20:05 |

| secleinteer | hi, is anyone else having trouble with brace expansion in shell scripts? | 20:12 |
| Dr_Willis | nurv: its a very handy tool. so yes. its worth learning | 20:12 |
| ManDay | What are "Ubuntu patches to the kernel"? | 20:12 |
| Dr_Willis | nurv: learn the basics.. then learn more as you advance | 20:13 |
| ^peanut^ | ActionParsnip: I had it all working at one point, came into the office, opened up an email with a link to a company flash presentation, and bam, flash started to freak out ever sense. so I just switched back to 32bit. =) all is well now . | 20:13 |
| masterkiller | hey i changed the ip address in /etc/network/interface but when i do /etc/init.d/networking restart it doesnt change the ip address. how do i get it to change the static ip again? | 20:13 |
| ActionParsnip | nurv: sure, bash can make repetitive tasks easy as well as let you use your other bash scripts in bash scripts | 20:13 |
| erUSUL | masterkiller: try « sudo restart networking » | 20:13 |
| oohazard | ^peanut^: because it does not work | 20:13 |
| dajhorn | ManDay: The Ubuntu kernel is not exactly what you'd find at www.kernel.org or in Debian -- the Canonical/Ubuntu kernel team makes changes for the Ubuntu distro. | 20:13 |
| nurv | Dr_Willis: Ok thanks; what would be some basics to start off at? I have a book called Learning the Bash, but I couldn't grasp the info | 20:14 |
| ActionParsnip | ^peanut^: you can also use 64bit OS with 32bit browser. Makes. Lots of things nice :) | 20:14 |
| masterkiller | erUSUL, i'm running as root | 20:14 |
| mrq | nurv: google | 20:14 |
| Dr_Willis | nurv: read it.. do some work in bash.. go back reread it.. | 20:14 |
| erUSUL | masterkiller: so? drop the sudo | 20:14 |
| ManDay | dajhorn: are these patches to the vanilla kernel related to some specific field or just random improvements canonical deems good for us? | 20:14 |
| trojan_spike | can i get a copy of that nurv please? | 20:15 |
| dajhorn | ManDay: Both. | 20:15 |
| ^peanut^ | ACtionParsnip: yea, I was playin with that for a bit. Then I had to turn my desktop into a dev server.. so now I'm on my 2g laptop, and 64bit becomes mute at that point =) | 20:15 |
| masterkiller | erUSUL, "command not found" when i do "restart networking" | 20:15 |
| Dr_Willis | nurv: you will eventually stumble upon some task and rember examples/parts of the books and you then can go back to the book and learn more | 20:15 |
| ActionParsnip | nurv: http://www.hypexr.org/bash_tutorial.php | 20:15 |
| ActionParsnip | ^peanut^: or moot ;) | 20:15 |
| erUSUL | masterkiller: what version of ubuntu ? | 20:15 |
| ManDay | dajhorn: what is your opinion - how impacting are those improvements? | 20:15 |
| ^peanut^ | ActionParsnip: yeah... =) that too | 20:15 |
| dajhorn | ManDay: Usually improvements, especially for non-free drivers. | 20:15 |
| ActionParsnip | ^peanut^: I guess, depends what the box is for. 64bit isn't always the answer | 20:15 |
| J11 | Dr_Willis: i remounted with loop instead of fuse so it seem ok now | 20:16 |
| ^peanut^ | Manday: the kernel updates could be for security fixes rolled down by ubuntu, or my kernel.org.... | 20:16 |
| ^peanut^ | by* | 20:16 |
| nurv | Dr_Willis Ok thanks fI'll try the examples in the book as I read through it maybe that will help out alittle bit more :-) | 20:16 |
| Dr_Willis | J11: i was about to say - ive sene somiler things with 'fuse' but that was ages ago. :) | 20:16 |
| Dr_Willis | J11: i dident realize you were using the fuse stuff | 20:16 |
| Dr_Willis | nurv: http://delicious.com/dr_willis/bash | 20:17 |
| ManDay | dajhorn: I deem that pretty "serious" - reason enough for me to prefer the ubuntu kernel over vanilla - the main advantage of ubuntu i always saw was how compatibel it is. | 20:17 |
| masterkiller | erUSUL, doh its debian 4.0 i'll go ask them but shouldnt be this difficult... | 20:17 |
| ManDay | ^peanut^: why would ubuntu have security fixes kernel.org did not commit upstream? | 20:17 |
| ActionParsnip | nurv: if you use cli a lot it can make life a lot easier | 20:17 |
| nurv | ActionParsnip: whats cli? | 20:17 |
| ^peanut^ | Manday: who's to say they didn't commit it upstream. | 20:17 |
| erUSUL | masterkiller: well; in ubuntu we use upstart that provides restart ... in debian the old method ( the one you tried) should work | 20:17 |
| ^peanut^ | ManDay: I would think that they would. | 20:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Nurv: command line interface, like in terminal | 20:18 |
| J11 | Dr_Willis: the furiousisomount gui frontend has 2 mount options fuse(default) and loop | 20:18 |

| trojan_spike | ok | 20:18 |
| ManDay | ^peanut^: you lost me, why would it be called "ubuntu specific patches" if these were the same security fixes as found in the vanilla kernel?? or do you just mean that ubuntu provides fixes BEFORE kernel.org is aware of them and they commit them later? | 20:18 |
| Dr_Willis | bihari: clarify what you mean by 'access lan computer' | 20:18 |
| trojan_spike | might torrent it,, whats it called again?? | 20:18 |
| nurv | ActionParsnip: k yea i been fooling around with the terminal alittle | 20:18 |

| ^peanut^ | ManDay: yes the later. But I'm guessing... I really haven't looked to far into that process.... =) just a thought. | 20:19 |
| Dr_Willis | bihari: it depends on what services are installed on the remote pc. | 20:19 |
| bihari | windows xp | 20:19 |
| masterkiller | erUSUL, looks like it was "ifdown eth0" then "ifup eth0" | 20:19 |

| oCean_ | Jigal: permissions on your www directories have to match the user running the httpd (apache2) processes | 20:38 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: Do you know whether your wireless base station requires WPA2? A wireless card manufactured before 2005 may not do WPA2 properly, and if your AP is configured to require it, then you can get this kind of glitch. | 20:38 |

| Daekdroom | neldoreth, never used linux mint, so I can't tell | 20:41 |
| Jigal | oCean_: looks like multiple servers are running | 20:41 |
| neldoreth | Daekdroom: ok, because as far as i rememember it is also based on ubuntu and comes with lxde | 20:41 |
| oCean_ | Jigal: yes, as i said www-data. No, it's not multiple servers, it's multiple threads, that's ok | 20:41 |

| ericthehax | Is there a way I can install i386 deb packages in amd64 Ubuntu? I tried to compile the source code but it cant compile for amd64 | 21:06 |
| dajhorn | ericthehax: Yes, but you can badly break the packaging system by forcing a package. What are you trying to install? | 21:07 |
| Darklord6229 | yes and 1 sec ill past bin it | 21:07 |
| ericthehax | Gens/GS | 21:07 |
| Maletor | Is there a way to do a simulate with apt-get? | 21:07 |
| ericthehax | how badly can it be broken by installing a Genesis emulator? | 21:07 |
| Darklord6229 | http://pastebin.com/LJ8ArP2Y | 21:08 |
| dajhorn | ericthehax: Run `dpkg --force-help` and notice the blurb about forcing architecture. | 21:08 |
| Ex-Opesa | ericthehax: Installing the i386 mostly work on x64, go head with apt but don't force. | 21:08 |
| Ex-Opesa | ericthehax: Listen to dajhorn :) | 21:09 |
| septicmadman | Maletor: the man page has the flags for simulating, -s | 21:09 |
| dajhorn | ericthehax: And you'll probably need a bunch of lib32* packages for the audio and video. apt-cache search lib32 | grep ^lib32 | 21:09 |
| Nikolaos | Quick question - Whenever I copy text (CTRL+C), my cursor freezes for a moment. It is quick enough not to cause problems, but long enough to be annoying. Any idea what might be causing this? | 21:09 |
| ericthehax | screw it ill just look for an emu in the repos.... i dont even know the features of gens/gs | 21:10 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: This should be enough for nm-applet to recognize the wireless interface. Hmmm. | 21:10 |
| infid | POVaddct: i see, so just gnome apps die, like gnome-terminal and firefox? | 21:11 |
| Darklord6229 | would u like to use team vewier to see if u can fix it | 21:11 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: No, I won't do that. Maybe somebody else here will. | 21:11 |
| infid | is logging out and logging back in the same as restarting X? | 21:11 |
| POVaddct | infid: you were talking about screen(1), which is a console application and can run only console apps. | 21:12 |
| infid | i know | 21:12 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhorn: and u cant figure out what is going on | 21:12 |
| POVaddct | infid: yes. the X server is resetted, all X apps must die. | 21:12 |
| infid | thanks | 21:13 |
| POVaddct | infid: X apps cannot be "parked" like apps running inside a screen session | 21:13 |

| picard1421 | how do i run it? | 21:15 |
| FailDroid | How do unsintill ubuntu? I need to reinstall it | 21:15 |
| aeon-ltd | FailDroid: you can't uninstall ubuntu, just reformat the partition its in | 21:15 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: Okay, then you could have a misconfiguration somewhere. You need to have "mode: Master" on that output, not ad-hoc. Did you ever try to configure this manually? Like from a HOWTO document? | 21:15 |
| ericthehax | hey for once im not getting authentication errors on everything | 21:15 |
| erkan^ | yes that is right, aeon-ltd | 21:15 |

| shoofle | soreau: I've done that, but it still starts up with compiz running. | 21:16 |
| picard1421 | the window manager | 21:17 |
| picard1421 | should i have installed | 21:17 |
| picard1421 | wmii instead | 21:17 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: Run `seahorse` at a terminal window, expand the "Passwords: login" tree, and delete the password for the "Cohen" network. | 21:17 |

| Blue1 | Guest60096: my website is dead sorry | 21:18 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: delete whatever wm your starting in your xinitrc and add 'exec dwm' | 21:19 |
| pepito | what I would actually be interested in knowing is in what files does the program write logs, temp files and all that. strace seems to give too much information of other things | 21:19 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhorn done | 21:19 |
| picard1421 | wm? | 21:19 |

| Guest60096 | i guess what i mean is i want to make a bootable backup of the installed to hard drive system | 21:19 |
| picard1421 | what am i looking for to edit again? | 21:20 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: xinitrc | 21:20 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: well more specifically .xinitrc | 21:20 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhorn im gonna unplug my ethernet cable and look at the wrieless thing for right now so ill be back in maybe 5 - 10 mins | 21:21 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: Do you have the network icon somewhere in the top-right corner panel? | 21:21 |
| picard1421 | aeon-ltd: i only see initrd.dmg | 21:21 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhorn yea | 21:21 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: then create one :) | 21:21 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: Okay. I was going to suggest that you use the "disconnect" menu item, so that you don't have to swap cables. | 21:21 |
| aeroba | hey | 21:21 |
| picard1421 | i see .bashrc | 21:21 |
| picard1421 | .profile | 21:21 |
| picard1421 | .viminfo | 21:21 |
| Darklord6229 | ok | 21:21 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: are you sure your in ~/ ? | 21:22 |
| picard1421 | im in the folder thathas | 21:22 |
| xawan | ya. | 21:22 |
| Dr_Willis | theres no .xinitrc by default. and I think its .xsession used these days. | 21:22 |
| picard1421 | bin, boot, cdrom, dev, etc , home ...... | 21:22 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhorn can u still see this? | 21:22 |
| picard1421 | im in that folder that contains all those folder | 21:22 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: yes | 21:23 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: you need to be in /home :) ~ = home | 21:23 |
| picard1421 | create a file.xinitrc | 21:23 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhorn then i think we fixed it | 21:23 |
| picard1421 | ok | 21:23 |
| picard1421 | aeon-ltd: in my home folder it just has my user name folder | 21:23 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: Okay good. | 21:23 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: yeah in your directory | 21:23 |
| picard1421 | so i go into /home/me/ | 21:23 |
| Guest60096 | bootable usb clone of current system i believe there was an app on the ulimate edition remix that automated the task | 21:24 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: yeah, in a terminal all you would need to type is 'touch .xinitrc' then edit that file | 21:24 |
| Jordan_U | Guest60096: How big is the flash drive? | 21:24 |
| picard1421 | ok so i created a file .xinitrc | 21:24 |
| econdudeawesome | thewanderer1--it ended up working out--had to install ubuntu-server though, instead of unbuntu core | 21:24 |
| picard1421 | but btw.. i log in as root usually not me.. will that have any effect? | 21:24 |
| Guest60096 | 7.5 gb | 21:25 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: yes | 21:25 |
| econdudeawesome | thewanderer1 thanks for your help | 21:25 |
| Daniel__ | Is this the right place to ask for troubleshooting for sound issues? | 21:25 |
| Dr_Willis | picard1421: why would you log in as root 'usually' ? | 21:25 |
| picard1421 | ok i will just log in as myself.. not a big deal | 21:25 |
| picard1421 | ok i created.xinitrx | 21:25 |
| picard1421 | rc | 21:25 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: for this to work all you need to do is log in as yourself, and if you don't have a login manager you'll just need to type 'startx' after you log into vt1 | 21:25 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: edit it, and put exec dwm | 21:26 |
| picard1421 | what about hte xinitrc? | 21:26 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhorn nvm that didnt work | 21:26 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: yeah thats the file you need to edit, startx/xinit will handle it | 21:27 |
| picard1421 | ok i just wrote the file | 21:27 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: open it in a text editor | 21:27 |
| picard1421 | i did | 21:27 |
| picard1421 | and added | 21:27 |
| picard1421 | exec dwm | 21:27 |
| picard1421 | saved it | 21:27 |
| FloodBot3 | picard1421: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 21:27 |
| picard1421 | now i logged into my name | 21:28 |
| Jordan_U | Guest60096: How much data does your installed system have? | 21:28 |
| picard1421 | i press xstart or what do i do next? | 21:28 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: good, to test this you will need to kill X and make sure you don't use a login manager, when you are at the prompt type xinit or startx | 21:28 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: Okay. You could be screwed here. The next step is to reboot both the router and computer, and to try connecting with the `wpa_supplicant` program. | 21:28 |
| Daniel__ | How do I set ALSA to capture from PCM? It isn't an option in alsamixer, the only options are Mic, Front Mic, Line and CD. | 21:28 |
| Dr_Willis | picard1421: press? you use the command 'startx' from the console and it will run dwm as your window manager now. | 21:28 |
| POVaddct | i seriously doubt a newbie can handle a tiling window manager like dwm | 21:28 |
| Dr_Willis | POVaddct: i was thinking thast also. | 21:28 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhor wats the wpa supplicant program | 21:29 |
| picard1421 | ok i did not have xinit installed im Dl'n and installing now | 21:29 |
| Guest60096 | its pretty fresh install with just settings changed and no media | 21:29 |
| aeon-ltd | POVaddct: its still good to learn :) | 21:29 |
| Guest60096 | just configured with my drivers and stuff | 21:29 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: wpa_supplicant is a program that can send configuration commands directly to the wireless card. | 21:29 |
| csgeek | I keep getting this whenever I start vim: http://pastie.org/1052623 . Lucid 64bit, server | 21:29 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhorn how do i open it | 21:29 |
| aeon-ltd | POVaddct: if not there's always openbox :) nice 'n' light. much nicer than gnome or any full blow DE IMO | 21:30 |
| POVaddct | someone said earlier the dwm stands for "dynamic window manager" and mimics win7 aero. that's plain wrong. | 21:30 |
| picard1421 | aeon-ltd i did apt-get install xinit | 21:30 |
| POVaddct | aeon-ltd: i use fluxbox | 21:30 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: You're going to run it from a terminal window after rebooting everything. | 21:30 |
| picard1421 | its insalling right now so after that is doen do i need to rewrite .xinitrc? | 21:30 |
| cablop | i need a logmein alternative for ubuntu | 21:30 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhorn wat commands | 21:30 |
| aeon-ltd | POVaddct: confusion, dwm is a service that is run by win* for those purposes, someone just did a quick google | 21:30 |
| aeon-ltd | POVaddct: nice, another *boxer | 21:31 |
| POVaddct | aeon-ltd: ...and failed | 21:31 |
| aeon-ltd | :_ | 21:31 |
| aeon-ltd | :) | 21:31 |
| ^peanut^ | cablop: check out: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/3-logmein-alternatives-ubuntu/ | 21:31 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: First, you're going to use the wpa_passphrase program to create a wpa_supplicant.conf file, and then you're going to run wpa_supplicant with a bunch of options. This is likely to frustrate you. | 21:31 |
| edbian | cablop, ssh. It is an alternative but probably not what you're expecting :) | 21:31 |
| POVaddct | aeon-ltd: yes, the *box family of window managers is really nice | 21:31 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: probably not | 21:31 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: Like I said, you're probably screwed at this point. Use another wireless card if you have the option. | 21:32 |
| picard1421 | aeon-ltd: ok i am somewhat confused.. basically im looking for a program that will just have multiple windows that i can tab between easily.. maybe different web pages.. maybev this maybe that.. what would be a good one to use.. i was told dwm.. would wmii be bettter? | 21:32 |
| Jordan_U | Guest60096: You could copy over your filesystem to the flash drive with Gparted (I think gparted allows resizing while copying) then just re-install grub. | 21:32 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhorn i dont | 21:32 |
| cablop | edbian, i can use that ssh, but i need to be able to control a VM running windows inside... so... i'll need something visual an secure | 21:32 |
| edbian | cablop, vnc | 21:32 |
| ^peanut^ | cablop: FreeNX rocks =) | 21:32 |
| edbian | cablop, Although vnc is not secure alone and it is too slow to run over the internet. | 21:32 |
| cablop | edbian is vnc secure enough? | 21:32 |
| edbian | cablop, Not by itself over the internet. But you can tunnel vnc through ssh. | 21:33 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: wmii is easier, but personally i didn't like it as much but then again i'm tryin to max screen space (1024x768), if you've got bigger wmii'll be fine | 21:33 |
| sudoman | ebdian, vnc can work ok for lans | 21:33 |
| Dr_Willis | I thought virtualbox had some sort of 'remote connection' feature? | 21:33 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhorn i will probally go back to windows....this is why windows is betterr | 21:33 |
| edbian | cablop, If you tunnel through ssh it is secure. | 21:33 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: *shrug* Thanks for trying Ubuntu. | 21:33 |
| edbian | cablop, Again though, vnc (with or without ssh) is too slow to use practically over the internet. | 21:33 |
| cablop | edbien and then i'll need to tunnel it through my router... awww so much pain | 21:33 |
| Darklord6229 | dajhorn cant i use a program and install the windows drivers for the wireless card on this computer | 21:34 |
| mj8741 | Hi all: getting this message upon boot: 15.264138 nForce2_smbus 0000:00:0a.1: Error probing SMB1 - any idea what this means? thanks | 21:34 |
| edbian | cablop, That's not any more work. Just tell your router that port 22 goes to your computer's ip address. | 21:34 |
| picard1421 | how do you setup wmii? | 21:34 |
| cablop | edbian, hum, right... anyway vnc is too slow for it... well log me in is slow too... dunno if both compare... | 21:34 |
| dajhorn | Darklord6229: No. Ubuntu already has the drivers for the wireless card in your computer. ath5k is the name of the driver for your hardware. Rebooting everything could still fix your problem. | 21:34 |
| edbian | cablop, Never done either one so I can't help! :( | 21:35 |
| Darklord6229 | ok ill brb | 21:35 |
| ^peanut^ | cablop: for better security, on your router, port forward a non-standard ssh port like 222 or 2222 to your vm's ipaddress. | 21:35 |
| Dr_Willis | picard1421: for alternative window managers like those.. one always wants to go read their docs/guides/homepage | 21:35 |

| cablop | ^peanut^: well i'll do... as long as i also need to erm... flkash the router too, it just support a few redirections | 21:36 |
| aeon-ltd | picard1421: similar way, all WM/DEs are handled this way without a login manager | 21:36 |
| AnxiousNut | Does Kubutnu 10.04 also use plymouth? | 21:36 |
| ^peanut^ | cablop: flash the router? how old is it? most routers now adays support port fowarding or port redirection | 21:37 |
| picard1421 | ok.. well regardless there is no walkthrough guide anywhere that shows a setup of DWm or Wmii? | 21:37 |
| picard1421 | i did apt-get install xstart | 21:37 |

| aeon-ltd | picard1421: read this http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xinitrc and yes i know its for arch but its about 99% the same | 21:38 |

| cablop | i can go with teamviewer if there were a simple way to make teamviewer to load at startup not needing to make my own session to autologin... awww | 21:39 |
| Dr_Willis | picard1421: check the programs homepages.. those kinds of tools are commonly used people that are not affraid to read the manuals/docs/ and normally know quite a bit of how linux/X allready work | 21:39 |
| Guest60096 | anyone know if there is a single program that can make a persistent usb of my current installed system | 21:40 |
| Dr_Willis | picard1421: short way.. make a .xinitrc or .xsession that has the lines to run the window manager. and perhaps a xterm by default. and disable gdm and use 'startx' to get to the X session | 21:40 |
| cablop | ^peanut^: it not too old, but has a limited number of rediections, just enough for one computer, but not enough for three domputers, just 10 redirections i guess | 21:40 |
| Dr_Willis | picard1421: then tweak .xinitrc as needed to run other things you want | 21:40 |
| ^peanut^ | cablop: hmm, ok. | 21:41 |
| picard1421 | ok i just edited .xinitrc | 21:41 |

| ubottu | sheeps2: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 21:58 |

| ActionParsnip | lekstok: my laptop wifi also auto detects and is installed, works in all major distributions with zero effort | 22:27 |
| ActionParsnip | lekstok: "its a new laptop" is moot | 22:27 |
| lekstok | ActionParsnip maybe it's beause i'm using vmware | 22:28 |
| Dr_Willis | lekstok: often 'brand new' just released laptops have the most issues with linux. because the varaious fixc's and updates for them are not in the disrtos yet. | 22:28 |
| ActionParsnip | lekstok: i'd have thought the network device would have been virtualised | 22:28 |
| lekstok | it's a samsung R730 | 22:28 |
| TheMozart | anyone use truecrypt? | 22:28 |
| monkey_dust | lekstok, you got vmware to work in ubuntu? | 22:28 |
| ActionParsnip | TheMozart: never have, never will | 22:29 |
| lekstok | monkey_dust no i tried with vmware first because the first time i used ubuntu ( feisty fawn ) whas the same problem couldn't find the wireless card | 22:30 |
| mbhagya | gedit-plugins and update-manager have stopped working. Related to python upgrade on the system. Can anyone help? | 22:30 |
| goku_ | ActionParsnip: invalid option -o | 22:30 |
| Dr_Willis | lekstok: when running uuntu in a vm. you configure the vm to access the network on the pc. its a shared/nat/ip-masq sort of thing. the vm dosent know how its gettting through to the internet. | 22:30 |
| ActionParsnip | lekstok: i suggest you run: sudo lshw -C network to see what the hardware is doing in the vmware | 22:30 |
| Dr_Willis | lekstok: you may want to try virtualbox and check the vbox docs. I dont use vmware any more | 22:31 |
| lekstok | ActionParsnip i'm online with my wireless with bridge but ubuntu itself does not reconyze my card | 22:31 |
| ActionParsnip | goku_: the second command is what you needed. I missed the 'mount' word | 22:31 |
| ActionParsnip | lekstok: if its virtualised then the hardware will be virtualised. If its a native install then you will need that guide | 22:32 |
| mbhagya | Please help, my update-manager has stopped working. | 22:32 |
| lekstok | Dr_Willis i tried virtualbox first , was the same shit :p | 22:32 |
| budbud | hola everyone, just wanted to say hello from a new linux/ubuntu user | 22:32 |
| ActionParsnip | goku_: sudo mkdir /media/ISO; sudo mount -o loop /path/to/file.iso /media/ISO | 22:32 |
| monkey_dust | lekstok, it looks like a vmware issue, not an ubuntu issue | 22:33 |
| goku_ | ah you missed the mount command lol | 22:33 |
| goku_ | thanks | 22:33 |
| ActionParsnip | mbhagya: can you http://www.pastie.org to give the output of: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade thanks | 22:33 |
| budbud | anyone able to give me some advice as to how to get my multicard reader working under ubuntu, im running the netbook remix and the model is 532h acer aspire one | 22:34 |
| lekstok | ActionParsnip is there sort of " get started with ubuntu " or something xD | 22:34 |
| Dr_Willis | lekstok: then youa re confused about how the virtual machines work. if you run virtualbox on a windows machine with a wireless card. and run ubuntu inside that Vbox.. ubuntu does NOT see the network as a wireless card. it uses some emulated network card. that are commonkly supported by most OS;s | 22:35 |
| ActionParsnip | lekstok: just use the OS, you will learn lot | 22:35 |
| goku_ | yeah thanks. mounting the image takes way less time | 22:36 |
| lekstok | so my problem can be solved if i install ubuntu on my pc ? | 22:36 |
| ActionParsnip | mbhagya: why will it take a while? | 22:36 |
| lekstok | instead of using vmware | 22:36 |
| goku_ | lekstok: just use the live CD and reboot when you are done | 22:36 |
| monkey_dust | lekstok, please join #ubuntu-nl, i'm there, too | 22:36 |
| mbhagya | ActionParsnip: The internet speed! | 22:36 |
| ferlegend | hey | 22:36 |

| ferlegend | I have problem with Ruby on rails | 22:36 |

| ferlegend | how I can create a menu | 22:37 |
| mbhagya | ActionParsnip: But, this has more to do with the python interpreter | 22:37 |
| user__ | what do you need to know about truecrypt, TheMozart ? | 22:37 |
| goku_ | lekstok, you cant just use the live disk? | 22:37 |
| Jigal | can someone explain me the command not found error http://www.codedump.be/code/893/ | 22:37 |
| ferlegend | actionparsnip.how I can create a menu | 22:37 |

| ActionParsnip | ferlegend: a menu? | 22:38 |
| ferlegend | yes | 22:38 |
| lekstok | goku_ that's the problem i don't have cd to burn the iso now , sow i tried with vmware / virtualbox first | 22:38 |
| ActionParsnip | ferlegend: can you expand on that | 22:38 |
| mbhagya | ActionParsnip: http://www.pastie.org/1052736 | 22:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Jigal: theres no need to do a 'sudo cd' that ive ever seen... | 22:38 |
| ferlegend | ok | 22:38 |
| goku_ | lekstok: that will be slow | 22:38 |
| Jigal | Dr_Willis: if i do it without sudo i get a permission denied | 22:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Jigal: sudo /path/to/the/command | 22:38 |
| goku_ | lekstok: but it works with qemu just fine ;) | 22:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Jigal: sudo cd, cd's then returns to your other old/directory. so its a little useleszs | 22:39 |
| Jigal | Dr_Willis: but how can i go to the directory i want | 22:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Jigal: or do a 'sudo -s' if you need a root terminal | 22:39 |
| ferlegend | actionparsnip. how I can create a link to tabs example: Home, Contacts, accessories | 22:40 |

| unperson | I've installed TortoiseHG in lucid using the package from the repositories (tortoisehg and tortoisehg-nautilus). It was working great, but all of a sudden recently if I try to bring up the Repository Explorer, file status window, etc. from the context menu nothing happens. Any ideas on how I can troubleshoot this? | 22:48 |
| ^peanut^ | adelcampo: hmm don't think so. how about installing vim-gnome or vim-gtk | 22:49 |
| slimjimflim | ActionParsnip: mine is 8.0K | 22:50 |
| BluesKaj | noobi_plus, netstat -anp --tcp | 22:50 |
| adelcampo | ^peanut^: i have gvim but I was thinking of doing my coding in Gedit because I like a lot of the plugins but apparently a lot of the luxuries of vim aren't there | 22:51 |
| ^peanut^ | adelcampo: yeah, I thought the same thing about gedit. But, I switched back to gvim. =) | 22:51 |
| unperson | The only possible clue I've uncovered is that if I invoke /usr/bin/hgtk from the command line I get the message "abort: This version of TortoiseHg requires Mercurial version 1.5.n to 1.6.n, but finds 1.4.3" which makes no sense since that executable is installed by the tortoisehg package which lists "mercurial (>= 1.4)" as its dependency. | 22:52 |
| unperson | ...also it seemed to be working fine two weeks ago. | 22:52 |
| slimjimflim | ActionParsnip: should i reinstall gdm? | 22:52 |
| unperson | It may also be worth mentioning that the hg command line tools still work fine. | 22:53 |
| aj00200 | unperson: I have had these problems too. I don't think there is an easy way to get it to work. After days of searching, I never got it to work, but the command line tools aren't really that bad. There is also other GUIs out there for use | 22:54 |

| trippy | i used unetbootin to installl ubuntu to usb but it wont boot | 22:55 |
| unperson | violinappren, I actually got a message showing the nautilus job as having finished, so I wonder if it doesn't do a fork of some kind and let the parent process terminate. | 22:55 |

| unperson | aj00200, Interesting. I'm really glad to hear it's not JUST me. The hg CLI tools are quire good and I can work with them, but there definitely are some nice things about the GUI for a n00b like me, so if I could get that to work it'd be an improvement. | 22:56 |
| songer | i just install nvidia driver current vercion | 22:57 |
| ActionParsnip | slimjimflim: not sure dude | 22:57 |
| unperson | aj00200, Did it also start for no apparent reason in your case? | 22:57 |
| songer | but in boot my monitor says out of range | 22:57 |
| ActionParsnip | songer: use nvidia-settings | 22:57 |
| adelcampo | ^peanut^: I just might do the same | 22:58 |
| s3r3n1t7 | unperson, violinappren, from my understanding about nautilus thus far, starting nautilus from command line will show you whatever goes wrong including in forked processes. In short, don't close the terminal that started nautilus. | 22:58 |
| songer | it says: please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server, but nathing happnes | 22:58 |

| aj00200 | trippy: then you better use a liveCD | 23:01 |
| unperson | s3r3n1t7, In this case run the command "nautilus" from a gnome terminal window, but command was returned to the shell (as though the process had terminated) while nautilus was still running, and I never got any error info in the terminal window while errors were occurring. | 23:01 |
| unperson | aj00200, Oh, I'd much rather stick with the CLI than switch to git. | 23:01 |
| aj00200 | A-Non: then try using wubi, but sumoe users have reported slowdowns after running a wubi install for a while | 23:01 |
| songer | Actionparsnip | 23:01 |
| ubuntu-usr | violinappren, but it seems there is small mistake which author did'nt expected | 23:02 |
| aj00200 | unperson: git has a CLI as well, but either way, its your choice | 23:02 |
| trippy | i only have usb.. on my laptop.. and unetbootin is not installing correctly... should i be using the live persistance option | 23:02 |
| A-Non | I have tried using wubi, I get a looping error from pyrun.exe, something about no disk in the drive or whatever | 23:02 |

| ubuntu-usr | violinappren, everything works but only one word is dislayed except entire liine | 23:03 |
| unperson | aj00200, I just mean that I've learned something about hg and quite like it. And it is probably better for my particular purposes. | 23:03 |
| aj00200 | unperson: ok. Hopefully you can get it to work for you | 23:03 |
| mbhagya | update-manager doesn't work with python3.1. Module import error. Can someone please help? | 23:03 |

| nkei0 | monkey_dust, I don't think that would have anything to do with it... When I do an iwconfig with the adapter out, it shows no wireless extensions, but when I plug it in and do another iwconfig it shows up. However, the network manager doesn't find any networks, nor does iwlist. I tried configing it to the essid of my router, but that didn't work. | 23:04 |

| aj00200 | A-Non: are you sure your BIOS is setup to handle live booting from a cd? also, if you can see the cd menu, check the "Check CD for defects" option. (I have to go now) | 23:12 |
| violinappren | A-Non: did you run a checksum on the ISO you downloaded? | 23:12 |
| violinappren | A-Non: perhaps the burning was corrupted too | 23:13 |
| dp_ | tenserpudding : what does it do ? | 23:13 |
| levandat | #bshellz | 23:13 |
| dp_ | i mean ho wis it diff | 23:13 |
| A-Non | aj00200, Yeah I'm pretty sure it is, I've installed windows through CD before... Can't see the CD menu | 23:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | dp_, you can use ssh via scp. Proftp is as tensorpudding states kinda similar to apache config - but avoid ftp if you can. good luck man. | 23:13 |
| A-Non | vilinappren I'll check the ISO and reburn | 23:13 |
| tensorpudding | dp_: how is proftpd different from vsftpd? | 23:13 |
| tensorpudding | compare their webpages | 23:14 |
| dp_ | yes | 23:14 |
| violinappren | ubuntu-usr: a submenu ? | 23:14 |
| unperson | violinappren, Ah, the trick it to look in .xsession-errors. And it's showing the same thing I mentioned before (because I think that just calls hgtk), namely, "abort: This version of TortoiseHg requires Mercurial version 1.5.n to 1.6.n, but finds 1.4.3". | 23:14 |
| tensorpudding | the former is kinda like Apache in that it is popular and has a byzantine configuration, vsftpd is a lot simpler | 23:14 |
| dp_ | ZkoticK9: why avoid ftp ? | 23:14 |
| trippy | is herin a boot editor? | 23:14 |
| seidos | slimjimflim, this "official" list is pretty flaky. There is hardware that gets a 5/5 even though everything doesn't work. | 23:15 |
| Hopsa | thune3: My computer's xorg crashed with this setting as well, but way later on. I saw some text but it was gone in a jiffey. Thatnks for helping yesterday though. Its now almost usable :=) | 23:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | dp_, ftp sends passwords in clear text so anyone can intercept them. | 23:15 |
| unperson | violinappren, Maybe the tortoisehg package was updated some time recently and the dependencies are screwed up. | 23:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | !tab > dp_ | 23:15 |

| ridin | how do i change the cursor? | 23:16 |
| violinappren | unperson: apt-cache show mercurial | 23:16 |
| Hopsa | tensorpudding: Not with GAdmin-PRoFTPD my friend... Way easy too. | 23:16 |
| ZykoticK9 | ridin, you'll probably have to disable compiz in order to see any cursor changes! good luck. | 23:16 |

| ^peanut^ | dp_: filezilla is an ftp client, not a server | 23:25 |
| Jordan_U | Hunner: If it wants to remove the .deb then it's likely that its dependencies are not satisfiable. | 23:25 |

| Hunner | Jordan_U: it does install it's dependencies just fine | 23:26 |

| unperson | violinappren, Were you thinking there was something useful to be gleaned from the output of 'apt-cache show mercurial' ? | 23:26 |
| Hunner | violinappren: yes. It wants to install 200+ gnome packages along with it :) | 23:26 |

| funkyHat | ^peanut^: that's because it's not actually an evolution applet, it's a messaging applet. I said he could uninstall indicator-messages, which should remove it from the indicator applet. But as he said it's not that important anyway, we should move on. Feel free to argue with me in #ubuntu-offtopic though if you like ⢁D | 23:44 |
| violinappren | !help | daedaluz | 23:44 |
| ubottu | daedaluz: 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. :-) | 23:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | swapon, do you have this line and the one under it? # swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation | 23:45 |
| ukkopekka | I compiled Qxt and now I have so-files. I know that I need to link them somewhere, but how and where? And what about header-files? | 23:45 |
| funkyHat | blitzo: have her run memtest86 from a live CD overnight | 23:45 |
| unperson | darklust, I don't really know, but you could start here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash#Troubleshooting | 23:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | swapon, when you type "free" in a terminal right now do you not see Swap listed? | 23:46 |
| blitzo | funkyhat did that was clean | 23:46 |
| swapon | ZykoticK9: i'll check, the swap is on /dev/sdb2 i need automounted, and the installation is on /dev/sdaX | 23:46 |
| blitzo | funkyhat not overnight tho - only an hour | 23:46 |
| daedalus96 | ubottu, i am trying to get 1 person to help solve it, un hampered by my irc client's messages about who is joining/quitting the channel | 23:46 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:46 |
| unperson | violinappren, Yes. I'll try that once it starts working again. At the moment it seems to be having difficulties. | 23:46 |
| yabbo | ok im trying to install ubuntu server on a dell power edge 6450 but when i try the server CD it says it cant install the kernel modules for the architecture | 23:46 |
| swapon | ZykoticK9: its in top because i swapon /dev/sdb2 after startup, but i need it to startup | 23:46 |
| Hunner | violinappren: Yes, gdebi has those dependencies, and I'm trying to avoid those (it's a minimal VM) so I couldn't use it | 23:46 |
| Hopsa | funkyHat: When i open Rhythmbox nowdays it only shows as a little panel applet. I MEAN, IF I FUCKING CLICK TO OPEN A FUCKING PROGRAM I SURE AS HELL WANT IT TO FUCKING OPEN!!! :=) | 23:46 |
| daedalus96 | I need there 1 person I can tak to about my issue, pz pm me if so | 23:47 |
| violinappren | daedaluz: group it all in one line | 23:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | swapon, you need to properly point the /etc/fstab value for swap to your actual swap partition. | 23:47 |
| monkey_dust | ubottu, i do think you are very intelligent, but then, I'm an android | 23:47 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:47 |
| blitzo | deedalus96 turn on logging so you can review later | 23:47 |
| ^peanut^ | !language | Hopsa | 23:47 |
| ubottu | Hopsa: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 23:47 |
| swapon | ZykoticK9: i'll quit irc and try to edit it, i'll jump back in here if the issue persists, thanks | 23:47 |
| daedalus96 | that doesn't help, i am trying to get the answer as i work on it | 23:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | swapon, best of luck. | 23:47 |
| funkyHat | blitzo: overnight is best, sometimes errors don't show up for a couple of passes | 23:47 |
| daedalus96 | nvm | 23:48 |
| blitzo | funkhat why would it occur in ubuntu and not windoze? | 23:48 |
| hsa2 | hello | 23:48 |
| hsa2 | i am having audio sync problem on firefox (flash) on site gamezer.com | 23:48 |
| hsa2 | is there anything that i can do? | 23:48 |
| daedalus96 | can anyone give me the link to the package for "System > Administration > Network"? | 23:49 |
| funkyHat | blitzo: oh ubuntu only, ok. Perhaps not a memory issue then. Do you have an output from lspci for the machine? | 23:49 |
| yabbo | ok im trying to install ubuntu server on a dell power edge 6450 but when i try the server CD it says it cant install the 45PAAVTMP kernel modules for the architecture | 23:49 |
| blitzo | funkyhat grabbed output b4 shutting it down last night but she hasn't mailed it to me yet | 23:50 |
| hsa2 | isn't there anybody playing billard on gamezer.com? :) | 23:50 |
| monkey_dust | daedalus96, do you mean gnome-nettool? | 23:50 |
| daedalus96 | w/e | 23:50 |
| yabbo | i dont know were that 45 crap came from i guess copy and past lol | 23:50 |
| swapon | ZykoticK9: it says #swap was on /dev/sda2 during installation, but now its on /dev/sdb2 (another device), how do i edit fstab to reflect his and do i need to get the UUID for /dev/sdb2 swap partition to automount? and how do i get the UUID? | 23:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | yabbo, cross post to #ubuntu-server same question ;) | 23:50 |
| daedalus96 | i am new to all of this | 23:50 |
| hdtdi | anyone knows another program for burning cds except k3b? | 23:50 |
| daedalus96 | i just need a reliable internet solution | 23:50 |
| yabbo | thanks | 23:50 |
| monkey_dust | hdtdi, try brasero | 23:51 |
| blitzo | hdtdi brasero is good | 23:51 |
| Alien_Overlord | brasero gets my vote too | 23:51 |
| ^peanut^ | Agreed | 23:51 |
| blitzo | lol | 23:51 |
| swapon | hdtdi: nero makes a linux version you can buy if you really want a professional version | 23:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | swapon, i'd just use the dev name if you know it! i'm lazy when it comes to UUID, don't use them often so don't know the command to find them... proc somewhere? | 23:52 |
| Alien_Overlord | wrandr is not showing all the resolutions that my monitor supports. Any Idea why this would be? | 23:52 |
| hdtdi | i just downloaded the trial version | 23:52 |
| ^peanut^ | ZykoticK9: =) I'm glad I'm not the only one | 23:52 |
| funkyHat | blitzo: with the information I've got so far my best guess would be a driver issue, but can't really be sure just from what you've mentioned. Do you know if she's using any closed drivers, fglrx for instance? | 23:52 |
| swapon | ZykoticK9: to add the swap on /dev/sdb2 to fstab: what line would i add? | 23:52 |
| violinappren | hdtdi: simply type (in a terminal) : wodium /path/to/ubuntu.iso | 23:52 |
| violinappren | hdtdi: wodim | 23:53 |
| tensorpudding | swapon: something like /dev/sdb2 none swap sw 0 0 | 23:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | swapon, mine currently: UUID=73d3a3cc-1d8a-4082-89ad-e5613f607510 none swap sw | 23:53 |
| blitzo | funkyhat i thought closed drivers had to be manually installed? this is a default setup every time. and how would i find out? | 23:53 |
| tensorpudding | I like using uuid's though | 23:53 |
| swapon | ZykoticK9: tensorpudding: thanks, i'll use tensor's because i don't know how to find the UUID and UUIDs are stupid to being with | 23:54 |
| FunnyLookinHat | /join #ubuntu-server | 23:54 |
| FunnyLookinHat | ehhhh | 23:54 |
| tensorpudding | UUID's are stupid until you add a disk or a partition and everything falls apart | 23:54 |
| violinappren | swapon: blkid | 23:54 |
| Alien_Overlord | agreed | 23:54 |
| tensorpudding | or if your hardware SATA controller decides to appear at different times | 23:54 |
| tensorpudding | during boot | 23:54 |
| redwyrm | when I login and it says "9 security updates are available", how do I upgrade all of these? | 23:54 |
| tensorpudding | and thus get different device ID's | 23:54 |
| funkyHat | blitzo: I think closed drivers are installed if there's no open alternative (for some wireless cards possibly), I'm not really sure though. fglrx certainly isn't installed by default | 23:55 |
| blitzo | redwyrn update/upgrade | 23:55 |
| redwyrm | blitzo: sudo apt-get update AND THEN upgrade? | 23:55 |
| tensorpudding | because for some reason beyond my understanding Linux does not give a fixed device id on the basis of location, like for instance FreeBSD does | 23:55 |
| swapon | violinappren: ok, i'll try to add the UUID, if it fails, i'll add the /dev/sdb2 blah blah, and edit the fstab if i change any of the partitions in gparted | 23:55 |
| redwyrm | blitzo: is there a special command for only security updates? | 23:55 |
| blitzo | redwyrm yes - and not that i know of - but i am not an expert | 23:56 |
| redwyrm | okay, awesome. thanks! | 23:56 |
| blitzo | redwyrm hey | 23:56 |
| redwyrm | blitzo: yessss? | 23:56 |
| blitzo | redwyrm there is a utility that automatically checks every so often thru the gui - can't you use it? it runs automatically | 23:57 |
| violinappren | redwyrm: click on the updates icon | 23:57 |
| Alien_Overlord | What do if the monitor resolution I want to use is not listed? | 23:57 |
| redwyrm | violinappren: no X. this is a server | 23:58 |
| funkyHat | redwyrm: sudo aptitude safe-upgrade ? | 23:58 |
| violinappren | Alien_Overlord: generate an xorg.conf and edit it | 23:58 |
| blitzo | redwyrm i am going to guess apt-get or aptitude has an option to do updates at a certain priority level but you'll have to google for it | 23:58 |
| violinappren | Alien_Overlord: Xorg -configure (in runlevel 3) | 23:58 |
| ubuntu-usr_ | how to set blur effect in compiz fusion in background (i.e. when gksu appears) | 23:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | Alien_Overlord, if you want an xorg.conf see http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/create-an-xorg-conf-file | 23:59 |
| blitzo | redwyrm as you certainly wouldn't want to autoupdate your database and have the phone start rining at 3am - surely this is allowed for | 23:59 |
| Alien_Overlord | Thanks Ill see if I can use that to fix my problem | 23:59 |
