| filosofixit | ilovefairuz : any idea of master mode support for the rt61 chip then in the kernel then? | 00:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest2396: that low of ram will be VERY VERY limiting. More of a limit then the CPU | 00:01 |

| quietstorm | I have a random question. I know the basic syntax of the nice command, but how do I use it to execute a conditional? | 00:03 |
| ilovefairuz | !hi | quietstorm | 00:03 |
| Guest57346 | Martin|2, could I get a gui? | 00:03 |
| ubottu | quietstorm: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 00:03 |
| quietstorm | Basically, what I want is this, but it doesn't work... | 00:03 |
| quietstorm | nice -n 19 if [ true ]; then dosoomething; fi | 00:03 |
| Martin|2 | Guest57346, yes, it has a gui | 00:03 |
| quietstorm | But that doesn't work. | 00:03 |
| MaxSan | hey people | 00:03 |
| Dr_Willis | progesterone: you may want to read a vi tutor or 2 and use the vi 'buffers' not the terminals copy/paste featurte. | 00:03 |
| hiku | Guest57346: alot of linux distros with a gui will choke with less than 512mb ram. If you want to run a system without a gui and without running any major services like apache, tomcat etc, then you should be fine with a base install no X | 00:03 |
| Guest57346 | Martin|2, not sure it's worth messing with, but it would be fun to do | 00:03 |

| thune3 | nice -n 19 bash -c 'if [ true ]; then dosoomething; fi' ? | 00:04 |
| Martin|2 | Guest57346, When i said GUI, I mean, think windows 95/98 quality XD | 00:04 |
| progesterone | Dr_Willis Thanks | 00:04 |
| quietstorm | ilovefairuz: True is just an example condition. | 00:05 |
| Guest57346 | Martin|2, something like fluxbox? | 00:05 |
| hiku | Martin|2: fvwm2 might work ok for him | 00:05 |
| quietstorm | erUSUL: that's a good idea. I'm surprised I didn't think of that. I'll try it and report back. | 00:05 |
| Dr_Willis | progesterone: 'vimtutor' command gives you a nice tutorial to get you up to speed. | 00:05 |
| erUSUL | quietstorm: still not sure what are you trying to do... | 00:05 |
| ilovefairuz | quietstorm: are you trying to nice the code running inside the conditional ? | 00:06 |
| hiku | Guest57346: check out "tiny core" linux. | 00:06 |

| Alex91 | suppose I wanted to transfer files over our network from a XP box to a ubuntu laptop. what would I do bout dat. | 00:07 |
| hiku | Alex91: use scp | 00:07 |
| ilovefairuz | quietstorm: what are you trying to accomplish ? | 00:07 |
| Alex91 | win scp? | 00:07 |
| hiku | Alex91: sure | 00:07 |
| Alex91 | what's the host name? | 00:07 |
| quietstorm | erUSUL, ilovefairuz: Basically, I'm trying to run nice on a conditional, like the following: nice -n 19 if [ *condition* ]; then *dosomething*; fi | 00:07 |
| Alex91 | laptop or xp box | 00:07 |
| hiku | Alex91: make sure your laptop is running the ssh server and your all set | 00:08 |
| Spookster | Question: My laptop (running Ubuntu) has a broken screen, but currently an external monitor is working. When I close the laptop lid, though, the display on the external monitor shuts off... in the "Power Management" preferences, I can choose the action to be taken when the laptop lid is closed, but "Do nothing" is not an option, only undesirable effects like Shutdown, Hibernate, etc. are available... how might I instruct Ubuntu to do nothi | 00:08 |
| formey | I'm getting frustrated with trying to install lucid, when it decides to boot to the cd it takes about 30 minutes and gives me an error, if it gets that far without telling me it can't read the media | 00:08 |
| Alex91 | oh how to i run the shh server on ubuntu | 00:08 |
| ilovefairuz | quietstorm: use thune3's suggestion | 00:08 |
| erUSUL | quietstorm: if is shell syntax you can not nice it | 00:08 |
| quietstorm | erUSUL, ilovefairuz: Moving nice *inside* the if did the trick. Thanks, guys! | 00:08 |
| erUSUL | quietstorm: you have to nice the shell doing the conditional | 00:08 |
| quietstorm | erUSUL: Yeah, that makes sense. I'm surprised I didn't realize that. :-) | 00:09 |
| hiku | Alex91: install it with "sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 00:09 |
| erUSUL | quietstorm: still do not see the point of the exescise | 00:09 |
| ilovefairuz | Alex91: hostname is just any name you choose to represent your computer on your network | 00:09 |
| quietstorm | erUSUL: Why is that? | 00:09 |
| ilovefairuz | quietstorm: because nice acts on processes not on bash syntax | 00:10 |
| Guest57346 | hiku, tinycore is exactly what I was looking for | 00:10 |
| erUSUL | quietstorm: what do you need to nice the conditional ??? is not like it is an expensive operaton or something | 00:10 |
| progesterone | Dr_Willis ok | 00:10 |
| hiku | Alex91: the default hostname on a laptop with ubuntu (unless you changed it) is yourusername-laptop as the hostname | 00:10 |
| quietstorm | ilovefairuz: Yeah I see that now. | 00:10 |
| hiku | Guest57346: oh sweet. | 00:10 |
| quietstorm | erUSUL: You're right. What I wanted was for nice to operate on the command *inside* the conditional, but I didn't realize I had the syntax wrong. | 00:10 |
| ilovefairuz | formey: did you verify the ISO image and burned it slow? | 00:10 |
| erUSUL | quietstorm: fair enough | 00:11 |
| quietstorm | erUSUL: I am trying to get the conditional on one line (it's for a crontab), so I stupidly thought to put nice at the beginning of the line... :-) | 00:11 |
| hiexpo | sup all | 00:11 |
| hiku | hi hiexpo | 00:11 |
| quietstorm | erUSUL, ilovefairuz: Anyway, thanks guys. I really appreciate the help. | 00:11 |

| ilovefairuz | formey: but did you verify before burning? | 00:12 |
| formey | hiku: didn't think so, but with my luck something stupid like that would make a difference | 00:12 |
| ilovefairuz | CyL: try wicd | 00:12 |
| trineox | formey: it depends on the size of the file and what format your burner supports. | 00:12 |
| hiku | formey: did you md5sum the iso after you downloaded it? | 00:13 |
| hiexpo | CyL, why u wanna relace network manager | 00:13 |
| formey | ilove: checksum, verified before and after burning | 00:13 |
| hiexpo | CyL, wicd NO | 00:13 |
| CyL | hiexpo: because it doesn handle very well the kind of connection I use... for example, I just can't make it work with a MAC other than my defafault... | 00:14 |

Alot of the times I'll have my left display off or on a tv channel or some other source but with 10.04 apps ALWAYS open to the left screen, forcing me to change the source, drag them over and change back, any ideas on a fix? | 00:14 |
| progesterone | Dr_Willis Are you still there? | 00:14 |
| formey | yea..i'm stuck on the windows machine right now and i'm bein lazy switchin back and forth between computers, sorry | 00:14 |
| Dark_Star1 | morning all | 00:14 |
| aeon-ltd | jaycount: switch the dvi/vga leads ? | 00:14 |
| hiexpo | CyL, it's something else than not network manager | 00:15 |
| jaycount | aeon-ltd, but for my gnome panels, etc. the right monitor is my primary | 00:15 |
| ilovefairuz | hiexpo: wicd works very well and it IS a network management application, either specify your issue with it or stop spreading misinformation | 00:15 |
| jaycount | and I dual boot windows and everything is setup for the right one to be my primary there as well | 00:15 |
| jaycount | so switching leads would be a huge hassle lol | 00:15 |
| CyL | hiexpo: Well, it works like a charm when I do it through ifconfig, but again, firefox wouldn't recognize it is online because network manager doesn't say so | 00:16 |
| formey | right now the other computer is going through the boot process (or so I hope) the Ubuntu logo with the white/red dots...it did this for a bit before and then kicked me to a ramfs prompt | 00:16 |
| ilovefairuz | formey: got a spare usb penprive ? try unetbootin | 00:16 |
| hiexpo | CyL, if you dl wicd it will remove nw and wicd is worse and than your outta luck cause you won't be able to get on to reinstall network manager i did that lol | 00:16 |
| ilovefairuz | hiexpo: again, this is unacceptable | 00:16 |
| CyL | ilovefairuz: there's no need to blame him, I got your point... | 00:17 |
| Martin|2 | thune3, I sorted my problem, I still had git-core installed xP | 00:17 |
| hiexpo | ilovefairuz, what is unacceptable | 00:17 |
| formey | ilovefairuz: I have one somewhere, i honestly don't think the bios of the other box supports usb boot | 00:17 |
| ilovefairuz | CyL: it's not just about your question. hiexpo is spreading misinformation based on his/her ignorance of how to properly use wicd | 00:18 |
| CyL | ilovefairuz: so you'd advice wicd... any other option? | 00:19 |
| guest99 | I'm still having that dual boot grub problem. I've added a new entry but it gives the same problem. "no such device" | 00:19 |

| ilovefairuz | CyL: you can manually configure the interface in /etc/network/interfaces, it's very easy especially if you don't use wireless | 00:20 |
| hiku | progesterone: I just highlight stuff with my mouse, then middle click to paste | 00:20 |
| progesterone | hiku It works on Putty but Ubuntu terminal. | 00:21 |
| hiexpo | ilovefairuz, CyL i was refering to wireless so if it is not than i did not wait and sorry | 00:21 |
| CyL | ilovefairuz: unfortunatelly I use it a lot | 00:21 |
| ilovefairuz | hiexpo: CyL: wicd works with wireless networks very well too | 00:21 |
| erUSUL | progesterone: select with mouse paste with middle click ? | 00:22 |
| CyL | ilovefairuz: What about 3g connections? | 00:22 |
| rww | hiexpo: the wicd package doesn't conflict with network-manager any more, so no, it won't remove network-manager | 00:22 |
| ilovefairuz | CyL: I haven't tried that but check their website | 00:22 |
| CyL | rww: Is there a way to disable network-manager while using wicd? | 00:22 |
| hiexpo | ilovefairuz, from my experience with many comps not just everyone wicd boggs and has problems connecting | 00:22 |
| mhall119 | QUESTION: is there a way to run a script before my laptop goes into suspend? | 00:23 |
| hiku | progesterone: yes I use ubuntu daily and if I need to copy paste I'll either highlight the text with the mouse, click new tab, and then paste with the middle (scroll wheel). Or you can highlight, rightclick and choose copy. and then right click and paste. | 00:23 |
| rww | "worse" is subjective. Some people prefer wicd. Some people prefer network-manager. Some people have stupid broken wifi drivers that only work with network-manager for some stupid reason. | 00:23 |

| profxavier | rallias, I just did something similarly, myself | 00:34 |
| erUSUL | !mailserver | 00:34 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu supports the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and provides mail server software of many kinds. You can install a basic email handling configuration with the "Mail server" task during installation, or with the "tasksel" command. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/email-services.html | 00:34 |

| profxavier | guest99, which did you install second ? | 00:44 |
| guest99 | profxavier, linux | 00:44 |
| thijss | Hi hi, question | 00:44 |
| profxavier | guest99, what seems to be the problem then, in detail, all on one line | 00:44 |
| biodegabriel | When I run "apt-get -u upgrade" I get some error messages. Should I be worried about it? http://pastie.org/1085008 | 00:44 |
| rallias | hiku: give me a couple minnutes. How do i delete a file from the command line? | 00:45 |
| mhall119 | rallias: rm $filename | 00:45 |
| formey | ilovefairuz: that was from the dvd, i'm about to go get my pendrive from my laptop bag and use the usb loader on the ubuntu site to put the iso on it | 00:45 |
| thijss | I have 2 servers in a datacenter, however, i failed to configure one right, and i got no acces to it whatsoever. Is there any way to check on what port the ssh on the second machine is running? | 00:45 |
| guest99 | profxavier, I have to menu choice, but when booting to it i get "unknown device" and "unknown partition" then it goes back to grub | 00:45 |
| mhall119 | thijss: did you change it from the default 22? | 00:46 |
| profxavier | guest99, did you install Ubuntu on the Windows partition? | 00:46 |
| shane2peru | bastid_raZor, could be, but I did that not too long ago, now it is back down to 43 and no longer red | 00:46 |
| ilovefairuz | formey: try unetbootin | 00:46 |
| === Afrix2 is now known as Afrix | ||
| thijss | mhall119: yes, but i can't connect to either the one i changed it to, or the 22 | 00:46 |
| guest99 | profxavier, windows is on the first drive, ubuntu on the second drive | 00:46 |
| ilovefairuz | thijss: nmap | 00:46 |
| mhall119 | thijss: then there's a good change your config file wasn't right, and now it can't start at all | 00:46 |
| Thqrmt | how do I transfer files between two computers directly connected by ethernet cable? | 00:46 |
| thijss | ilovefairuz: all right, any tips on the usage of nmap? | 00:46 |
| profxavier | guest99, so you believe the Windows partition is still intact ? | 00:46 |
| th0r | thijss: did you remember to open that port on the firewall? | 00:47 |
| hiku | rallias: if it's a file your username created use rm, if you created it with sudo then use sudo rm /path/to/file | 00:47 |
| thijss | mhall119: auch.. | 00:47 |
| profxavier | Thqrmt, cross-over cable | 00:47 |
| guest99 | profxavier, it is. | 00:47 |
| thijss | th0r: I dont believe i installed a firewall at all.. | 00:47 |
| formey | ilovefairuz: is it a windows application? I can't boot to my other machine right now :-( | 00:47 |
| Thqrmt | what's that profxavier | 00:47 |
| profxavier | guest99, and GRUB [ if that is your bootloader], offers Windows as an option, but will not boot into it? | 00:47 |
| profxavier | Thqrmt: you can use google, and read about it all day | 00:48 |

| dapeamel | hello guys does all computers use the same kernel config or been the kernel config autoconfigured by the computer?. | 00:48 |
| guest99 | profxavier, yes grub has the option but errors out when booting to it | 00:48 |

| hiku | !paste > rallias | 00:48 |
| ubottu | rallias, please see my private message | 00:48 |
| profxavier | guest99, did you see anything unusual during the installation, to cause GRUB to be configured incorrect ? | 00:48 |
| th0r | dapeamel: there is a default kernel config. It is the module list that is modified for each hardware configuration | 00:49 |
| mangojambo | hi, I'm pressing the audio Volume function keys in my Netbook and it doesn't stop and I can't do anything else. In Mandriva it works fine, but ubuntu or UNR doesn't. How can I fix it? | 00:49 |
| Thqrmt | yeah i see it's a device. well i have the router in front of me would I be able to plug them both in and go from there? | 00:49 |
| profxavier | hiku, that was already posted in the channel | 00:49 |
| guest99 | profxavier, no pretty normal install | 00:49 |
| hiku | profxavier: doh, didn't see that | 00:49 |
| profxavier | Thqrmt, sure, they both have an IP address | 00:49 |
| profxavier | hiku, the bot auto-recognizes it | 00:49 |
| rallias | sorry had something other then the proper pastebin in the clipboard | 00:49 |

| rallias | hiku the pastebin is http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/ZyJJPnMh | 00:50 |
| dapeamel | th0r, um can you explain more in detail please.. | 00:50 |
| profxavier | guest99, unusual, do you have just one drive, or multiples ? [with the OSes on it] | 00:50 |
| EddieV113 | guys i accidently made my windows partition to small while installing ubuntu is there a way to make it bigger and made the ubuntu partition smaller? They are both on same disk. | 00:50 |
| steph021_mac | j #debian | 00:50 |
| rallias | the message sent is in my inbo | 00:50 |
| th0r | dapeamel: at install the kernel config is a default. The install program creates a list of modules to load on startup, depending on the hardware and software chosen. for instance, video is a module, not a kernel config. | 00:51 |
| biodegabriel | Hi everyone! N00B Question here: I am getting errors when I run a simple "apt-get upgrade" command. Are these serious errors? Has anyone seen this before? http://pastie.org/1085008 | 00:51 |
| guest99 | profxavier, 2 drives. a 320 as the first with windows xp on ntfs. the second is 2 TB with a swap and a / as ext4 | 00:51 |
| profxavier | EddieV113, how did you move the partition sizes ? [in the first place] | 00:51 |
| ilovefairuz | dapeamel: basically it's the same kernel + modules, at runtime the hardware is probed and necessary modules are loaded | 00:51 |

| dapeamel | th0r,sorry I have no much experience from ubuntu Im a gentoo user.. but its been automatic configured in ubuntu ?. | 00:51 |
| EddieV113 | is it safe to resize them again? | 00:51 |
| profxavier | guest99, can you pull the Ubuntu drive and confirm you can launch into windows, then you will know its an issue with GRUB | 00:52 |
| formey | i don't have usb boot as an option :-( | 00:52 |
| ilovefairuz | Thqrmt: Places > Network | 00:52 |

| rallias | hiku: it is working properly now. Thanks for the help. | 00:52 |
| ilovefairuz | dapeamel: it's pre-built | 00:52 |

| profxavier | EddieV113, you might lose data, if you resize partitions, are you willing to lose data ? | 00:52 |
| hiku | rallias: lol ok... wow I really didn't do anything but cool glad it's working =) | 00:52 |
| guest99 | profxavier, I have run the windows recovery and did a fixmbr. It booted windows. Then I used a live cd to reinstall grub, and now I'm back to where I started. So yes it is a grub problem. | 00:53 |
| whileimhere231 | Hi again. I have the wmii desktop installed. It works but of course I have no clue how to start a program up as it has no icon menu and I cannot seem to get a terminal up and running. Any ideas? | 00:53 |
| EddieV113 | that sounds so bad | 00:53 |
| dapeamel | ok ok have they a own kernel website or is it the original? | 00:53 |
| * profxavier high 5s hiku :D | 00:53 | |
| EddieV113 | what do you mean might? | 00:53 |
| rallias | hiku: it was a dns refresh issue. | 00:53 |
| ilovefairuz | whileimhere231: win key + enter will open a terminal | 00:53 |
| whileimhere231 | ahhh | 00:53 |
| hiku | rallias: ah... did you just add in your mx entry to a dns server? | 00:53 |
| whileimhere231 | Thank you! | 00:53 |
| profxavier | Guest99, so you confirmed the current Windows install is working ? | 00:53 |
| th0r | dapeamel: I don't understand that question | 00:53 |
| guest99 | profxavier, yes it does work | 00:54 |
| hiku | me thanks profxavier | 00:54 |
| whileimhere231 | Now is there a way to have it launch a program like wahcade when it starts? | 00:54 |
| * hiku thanks profxavier | 00:54 | |
| rallias | hiku: it did, googles dns servers haven't refreshed its cache yet. | 00:54 |
| ilovefairuz | whileimhere231: read the manual for that | 00:54 |
| dapeamel | ok ok. thanks anyway the question isnt rly matter.. | 00:54 |
| EddieV113 | i could reinstall ubuntu if i have too | 00:54 |
| profxavier | EddieV113, when addressing others, its helpful to start your post with that users nick, so they can notice it easier | 00:54 |
| whileimhere231 | yeah that is interesting as the man pages are empty on its website. | 00:54 |
| dapeamel | th0r, is ubuntuś kernel config available to download?. | 00:54 |
| profxavier | guest99, ok, so it is an issue with GRUB, I dont believe I can help you further with it, sorry | 00:55 |
| whileimhere231 | Ill google more | 00:55 |
| ilovefairuz | dapeamel: ubuntu doesn't compile the kernel at installation time and to get the source for any package, sudo apt-get source packagename | 00:55 |
| th0r | dapeamel: you install the kernel sources, then cd to that directory and issue a 'make oldconfig' command | 00:55 |
| Patero-ng | guys how to make a zip disk read only | 00:55 |
| guest99 | any grub experts here? | 00:55 |

| dapeamel | ok ok I see thanks.. | 00:55 |
| rallias | Patero-ng: set read permissions for everyone read and the owner read and the group read | 00:55 |
| profxavier | EddieV113, do you even know if Windows still works, because you said the Windows partition was re-sized, to allow for an Ubuntu install | 00:55 |

| BluesKaj | gonna check the boot | 00:56 |
| profxavier | !grub | 00:56 |
| 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. | 00:56 |
| EddieV113 | profxavier yes it works im using it right now | 00:56 |
| EddieV113 | and ubuntu works too | 00:56 |
| dapeamel | I just wonder if I can copy the kernelconfig ubuntu using, to gentoo setup. cause in ubuntu works all my hardware.. thats my issue in gentoo I tried to find out all but rly didnt work.. | 00:56 |
| Patero-ng | rallias, | 00:56 |
| Patero-ng | the hardware wey | 00:56 |
| th0r | dapeamel: no...you can't | 00:56 |
| dapeamel | cause other versions also packages?. | 00:56 |
| profxavier | EddieV113, good, then I suggest doing a resize, then a reinstall of Ubuntu, if necessary [if Ubuntu doesn't work after the resize] | 00:56 |
| EddieV113 | profxavier, using the g tool thing in ubuntu? | 00:57 |
| ilovefairuz | dapeamel: it's not only about a kernel, there is a vast of array of other daemons that cooperate to get things to work, so dump gentoo :) | 00:57 |
| th0r | dapeamel: if you are having hw issues with gentoo, it is probably module issues, not kernel config | 00:57 |
| profxavier | EddieV113, with whatever you feel comforatable with, its called Gparted FYI | 00:57 |

| rallias | hiku: sorry it was just so tempting, and I couldn't find the one someone else did to me. | 00:58 |
| th0r | dapeamel: you can look at /etc/modules to get some idea of what modules are being used, but you can | 00:58 |
| Iceman_B | if I have an encrypted homedir, and I mount a seperate hdd in a folder thats IN my ecrypted homedir: will my data be encrypted ? | 00:58 |
| Iceman_B | and is this even possible? | 00:58 |
| guest99 | ilovefairuz, No, a normal install | 00:58 |
| th0r | dapeamel: (oops) you can't just copy modules from ubuntu to gentoo | 00:59 |

| DaLeach | afterwards when I do sudo visudo doesn't work.. | 00:59 |
| EDinNY | ilovefairuz: thanks | 00:59 |
| th0r | dapeamel: you could also get a list of modules with 'lsmod' in ubuntu, and compare it to the one for gentoo | 00:59 |
| shane2peru | anyone got a link on building debs for Ubuntu? I thought there use to be on at the ubuntu docs, but can't find it. | 00:59 |
| dapeamel | what is that kind of package thing like synaptic etc ubuntu and debian using? the term for that? | 01:00 |
| shane2peru | !build deb | 01:00 |
| dapeamel | sounds like a idea yeah | 01:00 |
| ilovefairuz | guest99: where's ubuntu installed ? | 01:00 |
| th0r | dapeamel: synaptic is a package manager | 01:00 |
| dapeamel | is the lsmod function installed on the livecd?. | 01:00 |
| th0r | dapeamel: yes, I think so | 01:00 |
| guest99 | ilovefairuz, /dev/sdb | 01:00 |
| DaLeach | you'll know hwen you type in "lsmod" | 01:00 |
| DaLeach | :) | 01:01 |
| dapeamel | th0r, I mean u using like sudo apt-get install blab la bla but what is that kind of thing based on?. | 01:01 |
| dapeamel | a kind of system ubuntu/debian using. | 01:01 |
| guest99 | ilovefairuz, specifically /dev/sdb2 | 01:01 |
| th0r | dapeamel: ubuntu/debian are based on .deb packages, as opposed to redhat and mandriva which use rpm packages | 01:01 |
| DaLeach | dapeamel, there's a lot of different kinds / theories about package management... but it was invented by debian I guess.. | 01:01 |
| DaLeach | dapeamel, one of the first (interesting one) is pkgsrc I had the guy who wrote it for my professor :) | 01:02 |
| dapeamel | yeah DaLeach true.. | 01:02 |
| th0r | dapeamel: I don't think gentoo uses a package manager...if I remember correctly everything in gentoo is compiled from source | 01:02 |
| ilovefairuz | guest99: and grub is on sda or b? | 01:02 |
| dapeamel | cool DaLeach | 01:02 |
| dapeamel | no it doesnt th0r . | 01:02 |
| DaLeach | th0r, your'e right all from source, but something manages it I think :) | 01:02 |
| dapeamel | th0r, but its available but heard loads of things its bad.. | 01:02 |
| dapeamel | messes up stuff.. | 01:03 |
| elslunko | Having issue with GIMP and reading exif from TIFF files. Here's an example http://ubuntuone.com/p/CGr/ | 01:03 |
| guest99 | ilovefairuz, sda I think. It is the one with the boot flag. (it is also the first drive, the sdb drive was a upgrade) | 01:03 |
| elslunko | I can't read it with exif or eog either, but exiftool works fine | 01:03 |
| DaLeach | http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/faq.xml#ebuilds | 01:03 |
| dapeamel | yeah ebuilds :) | 01:04 |
| Solow | How do I add stuff to the menu myself? | 01:04 |
| ilovefairuz | guest99: i suggest you reinstall it on sda if you're not sure (I also don't know if there are any compatibility issues with GPT disks) anyhow, are you booted into ubuntu or the live cd? | 01:05 |
| guest99 | ilovefairuz, I have tryied that. | 01:05 |
| dapeamel | have someone experience of programming in like python etc?. | 01:05 |
| ilovefairuz | Solow: alacarte | 01:05 |
| ilovefairuz | dapeamel: ask in #python | 01:06 |
| ilovefairuz | guest99: using what commands? | 01:06 |
| dapeamel | ok ok thanks ilovefairuz | 01:06 |
| thune3 | DaLeach: maybe try "sudo update-alternatives --config editor", EDITOR or VISUAL environment variables may also be interfering. | 01:06 |
| Solow | ilovefairuz: what? I'm using jolicloud, and I want to add a certain url as application myself, so i thought it was a ubuntu thing | 01:06 |
| ilovefairuz | Solow: this room is for ubuntu support only, seek help in their channel | 01:06 |
| guest99 | ilovefairuz, (somehting like) grub-install --path-to-root=/media/ID-of-linux-root /dev/sda | 01:07 |

| nimbiotics | Can I assign a su pwd to a desktop user?? TIA! | 01:07 |
| ilovefairuz | Solow: still, this is not supported here | 01:07 |
| Dr_Willis | nimbiotics: that dosent make a lot of sence. What are you trying to do? | 01:08 |
| Solow | ilovefairuz: So, questions about ubuntu, even though i'm using the answers in jolicloud, are not allowed? | 01:08 |
| Daekdroom | Solow, precisely | 01:08 |
| Dr_Willis | Solow: joliclound has iots own support forums and channels I recall. | 01:08 |
| ilovefairuz | nimbiotics: why su? add them to sudoers file: sudo EDITOR=nano visudo | 01:08 |
| Solow | Daekdroom: Why? I don't get it at all. | 01:08 |
| Daekdroom | Solow, I don't either, but that's how the channel works. | 01:08 |
| nimbiotics | Dr_Willis: I want this user (my son) to be able to install games, for example, ut not admin the pc | 01:09 |
| nimbiotics | ilovefairuz: what is a sudoer? | 01:09 |
| Solow | Dr_Willis: yeah but, if I have a question about ubuntu, (linux) as it applies to jolicloud i cant ask them in here. unless i'm using the answers on ubuntu. that's a bit.... I dont know.... | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Solow: we dont know what all changes joilcoud has done to their interface.. its very different in many ways. | 01:09 |
| ilovefairuz | !sudo | nimbiotics | 01:09 |
| ubottu | nimbiotics: 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 | 01:09 |
| Solow | Dr_Willis: I know, but it's a ubuntu question. I've found it. | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Solow: general ubuntu questions go ahead and ask.. but You are asking about somthing specific to Jolicloud | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | These variants are getting more and more specilized. we cant keep up with them all. | 01:10 |
| ilovefairuz | nimbiotics: use the command i've given you and read the file that shows up | 01:10 |
| nimbiotics | ilovefairuz, Dr_Willis: Thanks!!! | 01:11 |
| EddieV113 | so i guess i can't resize this ubuntu partition while its running? | 01:11 |
| dapeamel | have someone experience of cedega?. | 01:11 |
| Dr_Willis | EddieV113: thats not a good idea. | 01:11 |
| ilovefairuz | Solow: I've assumed you were referring to gnome applications menu and I've given you the name of the application to edit it: alacarte, how are we supposed to know what kind of menus does jolicloud use? | 01:12 |
| Jake2|cfl | I have 8 old kernals in 8.04 (show for selection during boot). How do I get rid of 4 of them? | 01:12 |
| Dr_Willis | dapeamel: rebranded wine :) with some tweaks.. most of the wine app database tips may apply. and they have their own forums/support channels alsio,. | 01:12 |
| Solow | ilovefairuz: I didnt know that was an application. | 01:12 |
| EddieV113 | i don't have a windows program for resizing paritions | 01:12 |
| Dr_Willis | EddieV113: use a gparted live cd. | 01:12 |
| ilovefairuz | guest99: actually --root is just the mount point for the root directory | 01:12 |
| Solow | I'd like to know however, how I can add a .png image as icon. | 01:12 |
| EddieV113 | where do i get one of those? | 01:12 |
| DaLeach | thune3, going to try thanks! | 01:12 |
| Dr_Willis | EddieV113: the internet. | 01:13 |
| dapeamel | I see Dr_Willis I used wine for a long time but rly dont like it.. much erros u have to solve but its works then but. what about cedega?. | 01:13 |
| ilovefairuz | EddieV113: use ubuntu live cd or ask in ##windows if you insist | 01:13 |
| guest99 | ilovefairuz, yes I used the ID because that's how the live cd auto mounts it | 01:13 |
| Dr_Willis | dapeamel: if you think cedega is 'not' wine you confused.. cededa is Wine with a bit of a fancier interface and some tweaks. | 01:13 |
| dapeamel | Dr_Willis, cedega looks like more proffesional .. | 01:13 |

| Dr_Willis | Jake2|cfl: If you have to ask 'how' it may be best to just leave them there. :) You use the package manager and remove the ones you dont need. | 01:18 |
| Jake2|cfl | Dr_Willis: I didn't know the pkg manager listed kernels. But thanks for the semi put down. | 01:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Jake2|cfl: they are pacakges.. they are listed in synaptic.. every package is.. | 01:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | Jake2|cfl, "dpkg -l | grep linux-image" will show currently installed | 01:19 |

| Dr_Willis | hiexpo: im not even ssure how to do MSg's in kvirc. :) | 01:25 |
| Buuntu | I just ran it and all it printed was the summary, i want to know what files were infected | 01:25 |
| ilovefairuz | guest99: ok, strange, i suggest you fix windows mbr and try installing grub on sdb2 and chainload to sda for windows | 01:25 |
| hiexpo | Buuntu, i should tell you results whendone | 01:25 |
| hiexpo | ^it | 01:25 |
| Buuntu | hiexpo, it did, the summary | 01:25 |
| guest99 | ilovefairuz, I'll give it a try | 01:25 |
| Buuntu | hiexpo, I want to see the infected files though, so I can do something about them | 01:26 |
| hiexpo | Buuntu, you have infected files in ubuntu / | 01:26 |
| Buuntu | hiexpo, there's an option to clamscan for it to only print the infected files but that would mean I'd have to run the whole thing again | 01:26 |
| Buuntu | hiexpo, I'm scanning windows ^^ | 01:26 |
| ilovefairuz | guest99: correction: install grub on just sdb/hd1 (don't specify a partition) | 01:26 |
| hiexpo | Buuntu, ok thought so windows delete em | 01:27 |
| Dr_Willis | I use clamav to scan my windows drives also. :) handy tool. | 01:27 |
| Buuntu | hiexpo, ? I can't see the files | 01:27 |
| Dr_Willis | brb.. | 01:27 |
| Buuntu | hiexpo, that's the problem... the summary only displays how many files it found that were infected | 01:27 |
| Buuntu | hiexpo, not where they are | 01:27 |
| hiexpo | Buuntu, you running live distro to check ? | 01:29 |
| Buuntu | hiexpo, no, it's installed on a partition | 01:29 |
| dpn` | hey.. the mysql-server package seems to be blocking when apt tries to update it.. to kill it I have to manually kill all the associated dpkg processes. I cant really install anything on my box until this is sorted :\ | 01:29 |

| biodegabriel | Hey all, n00b question: How would I edit my .bashrc file so that I don't have to keep doing "source '/usr/local/lib/rvm" everytime I log in? | 01:41 |
| barfster | I have upgraded to 8.10 | 01:41 |
| barfster | But how can I upgrade to 10.04? | 01:41 |
| ilovefairuz | biodegabriel: nano .bashrc and add whatever you like | 01:41 |
| biodegabriel | ilovefairuz, so I can just add "source '/usr/local/lib/rvm" to my .bashrc? and it'll execute everytime i log in? | 01:42 |
| barfster | I just tried this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades#Network%20Upgrade%20for%20Ubuntu%20Servers%20(Recommended) | 01:42 |
| Tukeke | Yankee GO HOME !!! | 01:42 |
| epinky | biodegabriel: also I'd recommend editing /etc/rc.local | 01:42 |
| ilovefairuz | barfster: add ". /path/to/file" | 01:42 |
| hiexpo | hmm barfster | 01:42 |
| Marttin | I remember I met a Austrian girl here, the day 10.04 was released, but I cant remember her name | 01:42 |
| barfster | ilovefairuz: ? | 01:42 |

| barfster | I am trying to upgrade from 8.10 to 10.04 | 01:43 |
| barfster | Marttin: Luci[d]? | 01:44 |

| epinky | barfster: ilovefairuz I think that message was for biodegabriel | 01:44 |
| dpn` | ilovefairuz, thanks for your help. I appreciate it :) Seems that mysql won't stop. I've started it, but there is no mysql process running. Should I look in the upstart log? | 01:45 |
| dpn` | ilovefairuz, clarification.. I assume pkg is stopping mysql to update it.. but that is blocking. probably because it isn't starting properly | 01:45 |
| ilovefairuz | guest99: ah, haven't used a GPT before so as I said I'm not sure about its compatibility with grub | 01:45 |
| ilovefairuz | dpn`: in /var/log/messages? | 01:46 |
| ilovefairuz | dpn`: perhaps it spews the error preventing it from starting | 01:47 |
| dpn` | ilovefairuz, nothing about mysql in messages.. | 01:47 |

| biodegabriel | Hey all, does anyone know why "apt-get upgrade" downloads different things depending on which mirror I'm using? | 02:19 |
| kthomas_vh | polkitd using most of memory, ??? | 02:19 |
| ilovefairuz | meeper: check http://www.turnkeylinux.org/ | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | heh.. it got stuck with the scrollbar at the top... :) silly kvirc. | 02:19 |
| nimbiotics | what is a good read on ubuntu security & networking? | 02:20 |
| Dr_Willis | nimbiotics: most 'linux' security books and sites will also apply to ubuntu. | 02:20 |
| ilovefairuz | biodegabriel: you need to run sudo apt-get update before upgrading and to generally stick to one mirror | 02:20 |
| AndyGraybeal | is there a log of all sudo / root actions? | 02:20 |
| nimbiotics | Dr_Willis: thanks | 02:20 |
| dpn` | epinky, its there.. i can run it from the command line | 02:21 |
| Dr_Willis | AndyGraybeal: i belive loggins sudo stuff is a common feature of sudo. BUt im not sure how much logging is enabled by default. | 02:21 |
| dpn` | epinky, it seems to be a problem with upstart... up start thinks it is never starting | 02:21 |
| AndyGraybeal | thank you Dr_Willis. | 02:21 |
| biodegabriel | ilovefairuz, i'm doing it as root. is that bad? also, my default mirrors are the ubuntu.com ones and they were CRAWLING, so i tried some other ones, but each time i try a new mirror, i get different updates/upgrades. (i'm working from fresh installs everytime.) so it's kinda freakin me out | 02:21 |
| lov255 | Sorry for the delay the information you requested is posted | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | sudo adds a log entry of the command(s) run (in /var/log/auth.log). | 02:22 |
| bronchmx | hi, i've downloaded jdk from sun's site, it is a bin file. i've installed it, but it doesn't show up when i do update-alternatives --config java | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | AndyGraybeal: there ya go. :) sudo adds a log entry of the command(s) run (in /var/log/auth.log). | 02:22 |
| AndyGraybeal | Dr_Willis: , thank you | 02:22 |
| bronchmx | how can i choose it? | 02:22 |
| ilovefairuz | biodegabriel: not all mirrors are synced up to the latest updates at any given time, that's why you should generally stick to only one mirror | 02:22 |
| nimbiotics | I created a folder a couple of hours ago and the folder and the files i put in there showed a little white on red X on their icons. I thought it probably had to do with ubuntu one but now its only the folder that has the X. What does that X mean?? TIA! | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | AndyGraybeal: from the following URL --> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 02:22 |
| hiexpo | :) | 02:23 |
| Dr_Willis | nimbiotics: ownsership, or permissions are set to some mode and its showing that in the icon 'feedback' | 02:23 |
| ilovefairuz | biodegabriel: and besides, all packages are cryptographically signed so don't worry much about someone messing with them | 02:23 |
| AndyGraybeal | Dr_Willis: , awesome thanks, reading now. | 02:23 |

| nimbiotics | Dr_Willis: still there... | 02:30 |
| matrixblue | RandyRKelly: What do you mean by run an iso? | 02:31 |
| Aemaeth | RandyRKelly, unetbootin might be what you're looking for | 02:31 |
| dpn` | RandyRKelly, http://thomer.com/howtos/mount_loopback.html | 02:31 |
| Dr_Willis | nimbiotics: hit F5 in nautilus to refresh the directory? | 02:31 |
| RandyRKelly | i have another linux on pc but dont wanna waste a disk | 02:31 |
| dpn` | RandyRKelly, just check the mount location to something else | 02:31 |
| punkmexic | how can i prevent that totem makes a weird noise when starting an mp3? | 02:32 |
| Aemaeth | RandyRKelly, if you mean make a bootable pendrive get unetbootin it will let you install just about any distro iso on to a usb | 02:32 |
| punkmexic | like it repeat the first second | 02:32 |
| matrixblue | RandyRKelly: So you want to create a LiveCD on a Usb-Stick? | 02:32 |
| matrixblue | Aemaeth: how do you want to parse the string? | 02:33 |
| RandyRKelly | pretty much matrixblue | 02:33 |
| matrixblue | RandyRKelly: Use unetbootin like Aemaeth said | 02:34 |
| RandyRKelly | ok | 02:34 |
| RandyRKelly | googling it now | 02:34 |
| Aemaeth | matrixblue, well, it's coming in after the href information is being stripped, so i'm taking it out of a txt document and i want to add an url like http://example.com/res/ so that the rest of the information will fill out the url to the right page and then i can use a wget command to download said completed link | 02:34 |
| ubunt1 | Hello. I need to install a driver from HP and I am having trouble with the "cd" command. When I type "cd desktop", as I am told by the HP page, it says there is no such directory. Why is that? | 02:34 |
| vhenry93 | anyone have any info on the umask question? | 02:34 |
| Aemaeth | RandyRKelly, i think it's in apt/synaptic | 02:34 |
| lov255 | Is anyone still working on my quest? | 02:34 |
| Dr_Willis | ubunt1: Linux Is CaSe SeneSiTiVe | 02:35 |
| RandyRKelly | ok | 02:35 |
| Dr_Willis | ubunt1: Desktop is not the same as 'desktop' | 02:35 |
| ubunt1 | Dr_Willis: I tried that. | 02:35 |
| Dr_Willis | ubunt1: then you did somthing fundamentally wrong. | 02:35 |
| ubunt1 | Dr_Willis: That's helpful. | 02:35 |
| Dr_Willis | ubunt1: use the Tab key to complete filenames also. | 02:35 |
| Aemaeth | matrixblue, i have a short script that i am working on to achieve this, so far it's going pretty good, just need to know how to combine that information | 02:36 |
| Dr_Willis | ubunt1: You may want to spend an hr learning shell basics. cd ~/Desktop goes to the Desktop dir in the users Home. You May be in some other dirctrory also. use ls and pwd to see where you are at. | 02:36 |
| Dr_Willis | ubunt1: rember the 'tab' key - it will become your best friend. | 02:36 |
| matrixblue | Aemaeth: You would normally use Pipes to get info from one command to another. eg firstcommand | script | secondcommand | 02:36 |
| ubunt1 | Dr_Willis: I just opened the terminal. I don't think I'm in any directory... | 02:37 |
| lov255 | Dr_Willis: I am not sure if ilovefair is helping or? But I had a question and he told me to post lshw -c network - which I put on the website - my question is about installing the WUSB100 into Ubuntu 10.04 | 02:37 |
| Dr_Willis | ubunt1: see the 'pwd' command to See where you are at.. use 'ls' to see what files/dirs are there | 02:37 |
| Aemaeth | i'm piping curl [the site] | grep [expression to only look at href info] | sed [expression to remove href data leaving url inside] > doc | 02:37 |
| blime | how do i remove a file named \ | 02:38 |
| ubunt1 | Dr_Willis: Just figured it out. It's because my directory address are in portuguese. I figured it out because of your tab tip. Thanks! | 02:38 |
| Dr_Willis | lov255: a usb wireless network gizmo? ive never used one | 02:38 |

| RandyRKelly | now is there away i can backup my current os to usb ? | 02:39 |
| jamesw | ubuntu 10 - i am having some really difficult problem for me with focus issues - i can only click some things, it seems like focus is sticking on certain objects, very weird - i ran mousetweaks as suggested by some forum post and it helped i think, but still not fixed and i can't right click | 02:39 |
| Aemaeth | and so some of the strings in doc are "res/[filename]" without the original site, how would i get a full http code added on? i guess just a manual "http://example.com" + doc? | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | |enigma|: ive noticed a few other apps that say i dont have 3d support enabled.. when infact i do.. bug with how the programs determine 3d or not I guess. | 02:40 |
| jamesw | i tried in icewm even and the problem is identical | 02:40 |

| matrixblue | RandyRKelly: What exactly do you want to backup? Normally backing up your home directory is enough for most users. Also keep in mind that your USB drive linux won't be persistent meaning files won't be saved once you reboot | 02:41 |

| joe___ | i2c: read the guide they give you, anyways the two easier options are: 1) share a folder on your windows computer (giving permission to write, if needed) and then access it from your linux one, using a samba client (a smb://window.computer.ip.address should just work) | 02:47 |
| Thqrmt | i'm trying to kill the startup disk maker, how would i do that in the terminal? | 02:47 |

| ubunt1 | mynewnick: It says that no file was found "Stop". | 02:54 |
| ZykoticK9 | mynewnick, you are assuming that ubunt1 downloaded source code - it might not be, could be binary | 02:54 |
| mynewnick | ubunt1: ok, type "ls" and post the output on pastebin.com | 02:54 |
| bonhoffer | it doesn't look like my tasks in crontab are running. can i troubleshoot? | 02:54 |
| c|oneman | I just installed ubuntu server. Now I did 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop'. Anything wrong with doing this? | 02:54 |
| joe___ | brandon420: have you got an nVidia graphic card, and maybe a quite new one? | 02:55 |
| bonhoffer | or enable crontab in some way | 02:55 |
| matrixblue | Aemaeth: hope you get sorted out. Later | 02:55 |
| ubunt1 | !pastebin | 02:55 |
| ubottu | For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 02:55 |
| ilovefairuz | lov255: the thing is: the wireless interface is virtually no present, as if it doesn't exist | 02:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | c|oneman, why bother with server if you're adding a GUI? MUCH easier to install desktop and add services - just sayin' | 02:55 |
| brandon420 | Joe__, i have the nvidia 8400gs 512 mb | 02:55 |
| c|oneman | I dunno what im doing :/ | 02:55 |
| bonhoffer | does /etc/crontab need to be enabled in ubuntu? | 02:56 |
| ubunt1 | mynewnick: http://paste.ubuntu.com/476215/ | 02:56 |
| Aemaeth | if you wanted a "server" with a gui, you could have probably went with xubuntu, but to each their own | 02:56 |
| joe___ | brandon420: check if it supports vdpau, vdpau is great and works on mplayer.. it makes decode the video directly in the graphic card, works perfectly with my nvidia G 220 | 02:56 |
| th0r | bonhoffer: you just need to enter jobs | 02:56 |
| bonhoffer | th0r: enter jobs? | 02:56 |
| owen1 | anyone was able to run the 10.4 livecd on macbookpro? i see black screen! | 02:56 |
| lov255 | Ilovefairuz: http://pastebin.com/Ffyr3pSM | 02:56 |
| bonhoffer | they are there in crontab | 02:56 |
| RandyRKelly | ok i dl and install this theme how i make my bottom bar like this http://www.ubuntugeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/ubuntu_presentation.jpg | 02:57 |
| joe___ | brandon420: if vdpau does not work, well.. you can just try to use different players and see which one is the better for HD videos... I suggest you to try mplayer and vlc | 02:57 |
| mynewnick | ubunt1: try "./game_launcher" | 02:57 |
| th0r | bonhoffer: you just need to define jobs in crontab....there is nothing to enable | 02:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | ubunt1, if you're trying to install Astro Menace see http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/gaming/astro-menace | 02:57 |

| ilovefairuz | lov255: lspci | pastebinit - | 02:57 |
| ubunt1 | zyjotick9: Thanks, but I also want to learn how to do this for future packages. | 02:58 |
| Aemaeth | RandyRKelly, that looks like they made their bottom taskbar disappear and are using docky | 02:58 |
| TELL0 | if you want a server with ui, better use lubuntu | 02:58 |
| th0r | bonhofferthat is the system crontab, you should put your jobs in your own crontab | 02:58 |
| Aemaeth | RandyRKelly, i prefer the awn dock which can also be placed on the bottom, check synaptic for different docks and get a feel for what you like | 02:58 |
| RandyRKelly | so how can i do that | 02:58 |
| Dr_Willis | !dock | 02:58 |
| joe___ | ilovefairuz: oh, so a pastebin command does exist! nice... I used to use a python script I did long time ago | 02:58 |
| bryanl | is it possible to install a 10.4 guest in a 9.10 kvm host? | 02:58 |
| lov255 | ilovefairuz: http://pastbin.com/pirNXeeV | 02:58 |
| mynewnick | ubunt1: the method is basically, what i described. here is an article for reference: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/softinstall.html | 02:58 |
| c|oneman | whats the difference between installing server apps on ubuntu desktop and installing desktop gui's on ubuntu server? | 02:58 |
| Aemaeth | install the dock through synaptic set it up, rmove the bottom bar from view | 02:58 |
| ilovefairuz | joe___: sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 02:59 |
| thune3 | c|oneman: if you want the full ubuntu desktop with all the trimmings, that's the package to install. (You might have saved yourself from downloading 300MB worth of updates) | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | c|oneman: not a hole lot.. but if you want a desktop machine.. its better to start with a Deskjtop install and then install the services you need. | 02:59 |
| mynewnick | ubunt1: this is slightly different because it looks to be compiled already, I thought you wanted to build from source | 02:59 |
| joe___ | ilovefairuz: yeah, found it, thanks | 02:59 |
| Aemaeth | RandyRKelly, also look at your compiz settings if you have it, it makes for pretty desktops | 02:59 |
| RandyRKelly | umm | 02:59 |
| bonhoffer | th0r: where is my own crontab -- and why doesn't the system crontab work? | 02:59 |
| RandyRKelly | were i see that at? | 02:59 |
| Eqlzer | anyone know a good batch image resizer? | 02:59 |
| ubunt1 | mynewnick: OK... Well... Thanks. | 02:59 |
| RandyRKelly | Aemaeth, ? | 02:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | Eqlzer, imagemagick | 02:59 |
| c|oneman | what advantages the 'server' version have, with exception of being more lightweight due to lacking a gui? | 02:59 |
| Aemaeth | system > admin > synaptic do a search for docky | 03:00 |
| joe___ | ilovefairuz: uh! it is done in python... maybe they stole my old utility! ahahah don't think so anyways | 03:00 |
| Eqlzer | thanks zykotic | 03:00 |
| th0r | bonhoffer: what makes you think the system crontab doesn't work? | 03:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | c|oneman, server uses PAE kernel by default -- use more then 4GB memory on 32bit systems... | 03:00 |
| bonhoffer | the crontab i posted isn't backing up the website | 03:00 |
| ilovefairuz | lov255: is it a usb card? | 03:00 |
| ilovefairuz | lov255: there's no trace of any internal wireless network cards! | 03:01 |
| lov255 | ilovefairuz: yeah - looks like a thumb drive...small portable wireless adapter to connection 802.11 | 03:01 |
| ilovefairuz | lov255: lsusb | pastebinit - | 03:01 |
| RandyRKelly | what i use to find that | 03:02 |
| th0r | bonhoffer: well, first I suspect your passing parameters in the cron job is messing things up. Create a script that passes all that so you are using a one word command, or put the command in quotes | 03:02 |
| bonhoffer | th0r: got it | 03:02 |
| bonhoffer | th0r: thanks | 03:02 |
| th0r | and you shouldn't run such things as root. As a user define that cron job and it will run automatically. I always kept a file called crontab.txt in my user dir, and loaded it with 'crontab -l' | 03:03 |
| lov255 | ilovefairuz: http://pastebin.com/hRuuAAWu | 03:03 |
| lov255 | It shows as the Linksys | 03:03 |
| Spookster | sudo apt-get install pork | 03:03 |

| RandyRKelly | brb | 03:04 |
| lov255 | ilovefairuz: one other thing I just remembered when I plugged it it and went to System > Admin > Hardware Drivers - two drivers showed up for it and I picked one, reboot and nothing | 03:05 |
| lov255 | ilovefairuz: I did not know how to take it out or which one I picked | 03:06 |

| ilovefairuz | olskolirc: run it using: firefox -safe-mode and see if it still crashes, if not, then one of your add ons or plugins is doing it | 04:13 |

| Aemaeth | i'm not good with variables, i can make $anything? | 05:08 |
| tensorpudding | -t performs a "temporary decompression" for the purposes of testing | 05:08 |
| tensorpudding | it throws away the result | 05:08 |
| ShapeShifter499 | I added -v | 05:08 |
| tensorpudding | you can't test to see if it was valid without decompressing | 05:09 |
| tensorpudding | -v doesn't seem to do anything for bzip2 -t | 05:09 |
| nowimproved | seems like it doesn't matter what I do, I get the same damn result | 05:09 |
| nascent | Aemaeth: "line" could been any name you want | 05:09 |
| ShapeShifter499 | I haven't used CLI compression or decompression tools before | 05:10 |

| nascent | fe: while read somename;do echo addthis$somename;done | 05:10 |
| tensorpudding | This is what I gather from the tools | 05:10 |
| ilovefairuz | nowimproved: three things a) try with another windows machine b) clean install c) use ssh or something other than samba | 05:10 |
| lov2555 | ilovefairuz: comes up "ls: cannot access /lib/modules/2.6.32-24-generic/misc: No such file or directory | 05:10 |
| tensorpudding | If you want a very verbose description of the process, you can use tar's -t | 05:10 |
| tensorpudding | which just lists the contents | 05:10 |
| ShapeShifter499 | tensorpudding: how do I check if the file is ok? | 05:10 |
| Aemaeth | nascent, like if i'm reading out of a txt file, can i do while read text.txt | $text; do sh ./script.sh $text; done; | 05:11 |
| sacarlson | nowimproved: put that in your /etc/samba/smb.conf and restart samba /etc/init.d/samba restart make sure you don't have samba4 running and delete it later | 05:11 |
| ilovefairuz | lov2555: remove /misc | 05:11 |
| tensorpudding | ShapeShifter499: What do you mean to check if it is okay? | 05:11 |
| ShapeShifter499 | tensorpudding: so when I unpack I don't get messed up files | 05:11 |
| sacarlson | nowimproved: i mean remove samba4 at some point keep samba | 05:11 |
| lov255 | ilovefairuz: http://pastebin.com/eNiwC1zz | 05:12 |
| sacarlson | nowimproved: and I better get a big beer if that works | 05:12 |
| tensorpudding | you could maybe write some script which decompresses the files, takes their checksum and compares it to the checksum of the files you made the archive from | 05:12 |
| tensorpudding | but it would be slow, messy and tedious | 05:12 |
| ipc | ?msg maco give me ball wash | 05:13 |
| ipc | oops | 05:13 |
| nascent | Aemaeth: if you want to pass every line as an arg to your script id write it like this: while read lineoftext;do myscript.sh $lineoftext;done < inputfile | 05:13 |
| ShapeShifter499 | tensorpudding: bzip2 -tv is the command pbzip2 page ( http://compression.ca/pbzip2/ ) said to use to test if the package was made ok. | 05:14 |
| Quintin | what is the channel for that media related ubuntu release/ | 05:15 |
| ShapeShifter499 | tensorpudding: I haven't used CLI that much, so I don't know what I'm suppose to be getting as an output | 05:15 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Quintin: #ubuntustudio ? | 05:16 |
| tensorpudding | ShapeShifter499: that will test to make sure that the bzip2 compression is valid; that is, when you run the decompression algorithm, you get a valid tar file | 05:16 |
| Quintin | Any linux software for composing chiptunes?? | 05:16 |

| nowimproved | sacarlson, i can see the computer on windows, but of course, I don't have access to it | 05:17 |

| patx | are there any programs i can use to mod some xbox 360 games... all the stuff i normally use or have seen is for windows | 05:18 |
| tensorpudding | ShapeShifter499: it doesn't guarantee that the files you have compressed are binary-identical to the files you compressed it from, since that would require some sort of CRC checksumming | 05:18 |
| sacarlson | nowimproved: oh the problem is going from ubuntu to windows? to see windows share files? | 05:18 |
| lov2555 | ilovefairuz I am rebooting | 05:18 |
| tensorpudding | ShapeShifter499: all it does is guarantee that in the process from tarfile to compressed tarfile, that there were no errors | 05:18 |

| lov2555 | ilovefairuz: same "no wireless extensions on both lo and eth0 | 05:21 |
| sacarlson | nowimproved: well I need to know the state of samba that's why I ask. I think you have window running with no password. do need to login to your windows accout? | 05:21 |
| ShapeShifter499 | tensorpudding: nah I should be fine, thanks for the help anyways | 05:21 |
| tensorpudding | ShapeShifter499: if tar proceeded without error, it's probable that the archiving went fine | 05:21 |

| sacarlson | nowimproved: whell that won't work for windows to share you must login. create a new account and make it have a password share in that account then it will work | 05:22 |

| nowimproved | sacarlson, if you mean try putting a file into that device, then yes | 05:34 |
| nowimproved | windows xp | 05:34 |
| ilovefairuz | lov255: add a - | 05:34 |
| lov255 | LMAO sorry | 05:34 |
| rww | maco, Surlent777: Launchpad thinks it exists, but packages.ubuntu.com and my Lucid installation don't. Fun. | 05:34 |
| nowimproved | sacarlson, i seem to be able to put a file into that device, but I can't check it to find out? | 05:34 |
| EddieV113 | guys im googling the shit outa this problem but im not getting any usable results need help! | 05:34 |
| Surlent777 | rww: speaking of twidge? | 05:34 |
| maco | rww: well, p.u.c is broken right now | 05:34 |
| nowimproved | its not in the folder that I'm sharing | 05:34 |
| rww | maco: only for maverick, afaik | 05:34 |
| rww | Surlent777: yes | 05:34 |
| maco | rww: also, i see it in apt-cahe search on my maverick install | 05:34 |
| rww | maco: and considering that my repositories are set up fine and it's not showing up... | 05:35 |
| rww | maco: looks like it got removed from Debian for a while, it may not be in Lucid and be in Maverick. | 05:35 |
| abhijit | /j #haiku | 05:35 |
| sacarlson | nowimproved: the device? can you write to the samba share dir? | 05:35 |
| abhijit | :( | 05:35 |
| abhijit | sorry | 05:35 |
| Surlent777 | rww: How annoying. I know I installed it via Aptitude originally...I just re-installed to get rid of those bugs that seem to crop up from age/infinite tweaking | 05:35 |
| sacarlson | nowimproved: you can't like cd /sharedir/ ls | 05:36 |
| nowimproved | sacarlson, it doesn't give me a permission error when I send a file to it, (not device sorry, that's just what the icon looks) | 05:36 |
| lov255 | ilovefairuz: http://pastebin.com/cyyrwKHz | 05:36 |
| nowimproved | sacarlson, right, its not there..then | 05:36 |
| rww | actually, forget the last, I just fail at reading rmadison output | 05:36 |
| chemical-death | EddieV113: is it crashed after a clean install? which version did you choose? Are you able to open a terminal? | 05:36 |
| aristo | can anyone tell me how to open port 3306 with iptables on 10.04? | 05:36 |
| Surlent777 | rww: I don't know what rmadision is. | 05:36 |
| ilovefairuz | lov255: it's still there, not removed from /etc/modules? sudo nano /etc/modules | 05:36 |
| lov255 | ilovefairuz: http://pastebin.com/dkxWizRA | 05:37 |
| ActionParsnip | aristo: i think its 1433 see whats happening with: netstat -a | 05:37 |
| rww | Surlent777: Launchpad is showing it as only being built on armel in Lucid, for some reason. That would likely be why we're not seeing it. | 05:37 |
| Surlent777 | rww: Well, that's weird. It must have been in Karmic then...I know I installed it with Aptitude at one point. Guess I can assume the Karmic version is adequate then | 05:37 |
| lov2555 | ilovefairuz: I can edit it with gedit? | 05:37 |
| sacarlson | nowimproved: from windows you can open the ubuntu share write a file to it, no errors and when you go to that dir on ubuntu the file is not there? | 05:38 |
| rww | although it lists packages for other arches there. meh, iono. | 05:38 |
| maco | rww: oh. so its a ftbfs? wait... since when does armel ever build that other stuff doesnt? O_o | 05:38 |
| nowimproved | sacarlson, all i see is mycomputer samba.. | 05:38 |
| ilovefairuz | lov2555: gksu gedit /etc/modules | 05:38 |
| EddieV113 | i installed 10.04, all went well, i installed the nvidia driver, then chatzilla all went good, but when i went to open some windows they starting crashing, so i thought the nvidia driver needed a reboot, after reboot no login menue, i can get into the terminal using safe mode | 05:38 |
| ActionParsnip | EddieV113: boot to root recovery mode and make sure you are the owner of all of your home directory | 05:38 |
| nowimproved | sacarlson, no I can't open it, that's what I've been saying, its access denied as soon as I click on it | 05:38 |
| rww | maco: I have no idea what's going on :( | 05:38 |
| nowimproved | sacarlson, and both places say the work group mshome | 05:38 |
| nowimproved | I set a password. | 05:38 |
| timh____ | did something happen to the ubuntu-users mailing list? I haven't had a new message in a week. I tried to re-subscribe, but got a bounce because I'm already a subscriber. | 05:38 |
| sacarlson | nowimproved: ok then you didn't set the permisions on the shared dir the same as the forceuser? | 05:39 |

| sacarlson | nowimproved: cd / ls -l and see who owns your shared directory | 05:40 |
| EddieV113 | ActionParsnip, how do i check if i am the owner of the home directory? | 05:40 |
| nowimproved | sacarlson, i didn't just create my shared directory, so the right person owns it | 05:40 |
| aristo | ls -l /home/ | 05:40 |
| nowimproved | sacarlson, the only user on the computer | 05:40 |
| chemical-death | ActionParsnip: it's yours | 05:41 |
| aristo | EddieV113 ls -l /home/ | 05:41 |
| nowimproved | sacarlson, well, the only user that I use | 05:41 |

| oly562 | gotta a quick desktop network question. when I turn on my computer, connected via eth0. I would like to be able to log into it without having to log into locally. I just want to be able to turn the power on, let it boot up, sit at another computer and log into via ssh and do my stuff. Is there a way to automajically have the network up and ready to log into remotely? | 06:12 |

| dontput | anyone have any idea how to recover files from a destroyed HDD? | 06:13 |
| ilovefairuz | oly562: why do you have to login locally? | 06:13 |
| oly562 | ilovefairuz: well not really, I did default, and I can log in with out logging in locally first, which evokes the eth0 | 06:13 |
| MaRk-I | dontput: testdisk/photorec | 06:14 |
| oly562 | ilovefairuz: don't know, that's what im trying to find out | 06:14 |
| MaRk-I | if he HDD still spins | 06:14 |

| ilovefairuz | oly562: you can or cannot log in ssh without being logged in locally? | 06:14 |
| sacarlson | nowimproved: ok and if that fails try the ip of ubuntu. it takes some time for the stuf to show up sometimes | 06:14 |
| MaRk-I | RealEyes: edit the server settings... there's an option for auto join fav. chans | 06:15 |
| oly562 | ilovefairuz: I can not log in ssh first, no, I need to log in to the gui locally first. sighs... | 06:15 |
| oly562 | ilovefairuz: is this a sudo service thing? | 06:15 |
| domzinique | oly562, try to add your network parameters in /etc/network/interfaces! | 06:15 |
| oly562 | ilovefairuz: envoking the start up services | 06:15 |
| oly562 | domzinique: yah, that will work most likely. | 06:15 |
| oly562 | domzinique: I figured I didn't have to though | 06:15 |
| ilovefairuz | oly562: no, perhaps you need to make the connect available to the whole system in network manager, right click on icon, edit connections | 06:16 |
| oly562 | ilovefairuz: yah, ic your point | 06:16 |
| oly562 | ilovefairuz: maybe | 06:16 |
| lov255 | ilovefairuz: ilovefairuz: http://pastebin.com/asziU5HQ and http://pastebin.com/pK9SAeeG | 06:16 |
| oly562 | ilovefairuz: but im loggin in with only one log in, and it's the same user remote im using | 06:16 |
| almoxarife | maybe he needs to allow remote access and use that to enter from the other machine | 06:16 |

| quietone | a bug report suggested changes to about:config in epiphany. but I can't try them because when I enter about:config I get a nothing. suggestions? | 06:32 |
| nowimproved | almoxarife, yah that's how I started off, I started off thinking simple | 06:32 |
| almoxarife | nowimproved: it should ask you to allow samba to install | 06:32 |
| bullgard | heyboy: Use the command ls -al. Or use mc. | 06:33 |
| oly562 | where does ubuntu store iptables information? | 06:33 |
| lov2555 | ilovefairuz: all one line on this? echo 'install rt2870sta modprobe --ignore-install rt2870sta ; /bin/echo "1737 0078" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rt2870/new_id' | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/rt2870sta.conf | 06:33 |
| nowimproved | then I slowly got more complex | 06:33 |
| ilovefairuz | lov2555: yes | 06:33 |
| domzinique | heyboy, bullgard, it give the last modified time and date, not the date created | 06:33 |
| ilovefairuz | quietone: they switched to webkit, no more about:config | 06:33 |
| almoxarife | nowimproved: I would do the simple process, unless you enjoy delving into the minutia of samba | 06:34 |

| nowimproved | almoxarife, usually I wouldn't mind delving into the minutia | 06:34 |

| dancrew32 | hey, so I just hooked an ubuntu box up to my tv. what are some cool things I can do? need ideas.. | 06:34 |
| nowimproved | but not with this, and yah, like I said I started off simple, I'll be right back | 06:34 |

| nowimproved | i'm sure that will get me far | 06:34 |

| lov2555 | ilovefairuz: let me ask a very noob question here - I installed WiFi Radar in order to scan for networks and that is the way I am figuring the driver has not loaded becuase it is not showing up on the list, plus I would think I should be able to click on the connection icon by the speaker and it would list access points? | 06:58 |
| domzinique | nowimproved, which Win? | 06:58 |
| nowimproved | domzinique, wait what, dude, it doesn't work, ok, it shows it, but you click on it any capacity anywhere and it says NO | 06:59 |
| ilovefairuz | lov2555: yes if the driver works properly it should list access points from this icon | 06:59 |
| maksbotan | anyone? | 06:59 |
| lov2555 | still nothing | 06:59 |
| ilovefairuz | lov2555: reboot after you add the line and then do: sudo ifconfig ra0 up ... and then iwlist scan | 06:59 |
| nowimproved | I go to map network drive, I click on samba, and it doesn't let me click ok | 07:00 |

| nowimproved | there use to be, then someone told me to remove samba and just right click and go to share | 07:02 |
| ilovefairuz | lov2555: no further ideas... | 07:02 |

| Guest66394 | johnathan, are you the only account? | 07:54 |
| johnathan | yes | 07:55 |
| spridel | i don't think he needs ndiswrapper, i think he needs better google fu | 07:55 |

| ubottu | N3VV3K_: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 08:10 |
| Jordan_U | N3VV3K_: Can you temporarily connect via ethernet? | 08:10 |
| N3VV3K_ | yes i am currently | 08:10 |
| Bobbie | The first command added it to the startup listing already, the second..is telling the startup manager to read all the files again? What am I missing about it. | 08:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Bobbie: weird indedd | 08:10 |
| N3VV3K_ | on a different laptop | 08:10 |
| lov255 | This is all a learning experience for me...I used mess around with Shell accounts back in the very early 90's where there was no such thing as connecting to the internet with Windows | 08:10 |
| Guest15692 | Bobbie, It is changing the ownership | 08:11 |
| bullgard | EddieV113: The answer to your question depends on the application which you are considering. | 08:11 |
| ActionParsnip | N3VV3K_: you can use the livecd to install the packes if you enable it as a repo. Using a wired connection is easier | 08:11 |
| Jordan_U | N3VV3K_:Have you tried System > Administration > Hardware Drivers? | 08:11 |
| EddieV113 | Guest15692, which ones there are alot of them | 08:11 |
| N3VV3K_ | yes | 08:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Guest15692: chmod doesn't change ownership, chown does that | 08:12 |
| N3VV3K_ | i went from ubuntu now im on suse | 08:12 |
| Jordan_U | N3VV3K_: With the laptop in question connected to the internet? | 08:12 |
| classical | dominick, one years ago flash player was a older version so ... btf i have p4 512 ram and its very difficult to watch any video in flash on youtube | 08:12 |

| picard1400 | hey guys i might be gettin the New Thinkpad with the QM that have the turboboost mode.. I know you can set you modes in windows for different profiles on battery and on wall power.. Is there a program i can use to setup the turbo boost.. turn it off when on battery power etc??? | 08:12 |
| Guest15692 | ActionParsnip, See I knew you knew this answer! Sorry i'll sit back and watch the pros. | 08:12 |
| N3VV3K_ | yeah im connected via ethernet | 08:12 |
| Karen_m | how do i see what 'binary' a menu is executing? applications->internet->remote desktop connection (how can I see which binary this is, I thought it was rdesktop, but i cannot connect to windows using remote desktop connection, but with rdesktop launched from console I can | 08:12 |
| ActionParsnip | classical: depends on the video chip too | 08:13 |
| Guest15692 | N3VV3K_, what brand laptop do you have? | 08:13 |
| seidos | N3VV3K_, did you try the link that hatake_kakashi linked to you? | 08:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Guest15692: chip in dude :) | 08:13 |

| N3VV3K_ | yeah i got it | 08:13 |
| classical | ActionParsnip, yep but my video is enough for watching flash vidz | 08:14 |
| tosh | n3v | 08:14 |
| tosh | you mentioned you went from ubuntu to suse | 08:14 |
| tosh | why so? | 08:14 |
| Karen_m | ActionParsnip, very nice! | 08:14 |
| ActionParsnip | classical: could try minitube. It doesn't need flash and will let you watch youtube | 08:14 |
| classical | dominick, if i download movie etc and watch it with vlc when no | 08:14 |
| Karen_m | ActionParsnip, , i am wondering why rdesktop is not in the menu | 08:14 |
| Jordan_U | N3VV3K_:Have you tried System > Administration > Hardware Drivers with the laptop in question connected to the internet? | 08:14 |
| Bobbie | ActionParsnip & Guest15692, Found the answer later in the doc. Someone commented "they had to update the permissions for anyone to read', hence the second line. Thanks for input! | 08:14 |
| hatake_kakashi | tosh, this is not the place to discuss about topics that are not related to ubuntu, even if its switching from something to ubuntu or ubuntu to something | 08:14 |
| Guest15692 | N3VV3K_, Are you positive the card works? I have the evil HP with failing wifi symptom sitting right here. Failed even after factory installed new Mobo. bad solder I think | 08:14 |

| EddieV113 | inertial: thank you i think thats exactly what i need | 08:16 |

| N3VV3K_ | yeah but now i have suse and im getting the same not connecting crap | 08:18 |
| Kartagis | ActionParsnip the former | 08:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Kartagis: you can suggest factoid text to ubottu | 08:19 |

| inertial | alright folks, ciao | 08:24 |
| ActionParsnip | lov255: the make and model are moot. You need to know the chip. If you run: sudo lshw -C network ,you will see the chip and can websearch for guides | 08:25 |
| und3rgr0undz3r0 | can anyone help me install (and find) ATI Drivers for my GFX card? | 08:26 |

| ActionParsnip | lov255: no, the chip in the wireless device. Linksys don't make chips. They buy them in and make adapters | 08:26 |
| ActionParsnip | bullgard: try -C disk ,instead | 08:26 |
| hatake_kakashi | lov255, what is the lsusb output of that USB wireless? | 08:27 |
| bullgard | lov255: No. | 08:27 |
| ActionParsnip | bullgard: is /dev/cdrom one of its names, the lshw output will tell you | 08:27 |

| Anonissimus | virtual machine | 08:33 |
| Anonissimus | yeah | 08:33 |
| codexn | anyone can help me then i can setting hla sucessfully | 08:33 |
| hatake_kakashi | Anonissimus, your question should go into the appropriate vm program you use support channel | 08:33 |
| lov255 | hatake_kakashi can I send you a message? | 08:33 |
| Anonissimus | hatake_kakashi: /interfaces has auto eth1 and iface eth1 inet dhcp, but it doesnt get an ipv4 address from the dhcp server | 08:33 |
| hatake_kakashi | lov255, why? | 08:33 |
| Anonissimus | hatake_kakashi: ah ok | 08:34 |
| hatake_kakashi | Anonissimus, hint: try bridging | 08:34 |
| Anonissimus | hatake_kakashi: it is bridges | 08:34 |
| Anonissimus | bridged | 08:34 |
| Anonissimus | and it worked before, that is why I am in here | 08:34 |
| Anonissimus | and not in vbox | 08:34 |
| hatake_kakashi | Anonissimus, then its an issue with either the firewall on the guest or driver issues on the host | 08:34 |
| lov255 | hatake : I had a question about the instructions on that site, in paticular where it says to "make install" and it talks about a .ko file which when I downloaded the drivers that filew did not come | 08:35 |
| SwedeMike | North_Italian69: some googling reveals some people claim it doesn't have to be primary. | 08:35 |
| hatake_kakashi | lov255, I don't believe you will have .ko file that comes along with the drivers you downloaded, once make install is issued from the correct location as specified in the instructions is where .ko file will be built | 08:36 |
| SwedeMike | North_Italian69: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/primary-or-logical-partition-7582/ | 08:36 |

| hatake_kakashi | Mr18, define: it | 08:39 |
| Mr18 | err sorry, Ubuntu* | 08:39 |
| Anonissimus | hatake_kakashi: it does work when I set a manual ipv4 address to the interface, that is the problem | 08:40 |
| hatake_kakashi | lov255, the chipset you have inside that wireless dongle is supported in later versions but it requires the user to have adept knowledge in linux, furthermore 802.11n stuff is all relatively new in linux anyway | 08:40 |
| Mr18 | hatake_kakashi: Any idea? | 08:40 |
| hatake_kakashi | Anonissimus, yes it means its a DHCP issue, it means either the guest OS is blocking DHCP requests or response or none is actually sent to the DHCP daemon on the network | 08:41 |
| hatake_kakashi | Mr18, it sounds like video driver issue, probably switching to vesa driver I think | 08:42 |
| lov255 | yeah, right now I am in a frustration state, the new image og Ubuntu is not even booting up | 08:42 |

| pinPoint | what could be wrong? | 08:46 |
| Alchemist2 | It was related because arch has it in Aur and im researching | 08:46 |
| hatake_kakashi | sreeju, there's no direct equivalent of orbit on linux, there's many download managers like d4x for example | 08:46 |
| lov255 | littlepenguin there should be a way to all a program such as macchanger to operate with root access - I have no clue - but if you need it for boot purposes, however it sounds like Machanger would be operating during your system booting cycle would not even be a part of Ubuntu | 08:46 |
| sreeju | which is good | 08:47 |
| Alchemist2 | Let me rephrase for you, how do I with APT search the repos to see if AndroidSDK is an avail package | 08:47 |

| EddieV113 | hatake_kakashi, thanks i downloaded qtorrent i use utorrent on windows so this perfect | 08:49 |
| hatake_kakashi | kn100, I know of a few programs you can install to monitor the speed of interfaces going in and out | 08:50 |
| hatake_kakashi | EddieV113, no worries | 08:50 |

| kn100 | swoody, I guess so | 08:50 |
| hatake_kakashi | kn100, there's conky for example which can be configured, otherwise theres programs like iftop, nettop, etc | 08:50 |
| pinPoint | thanks swoody | 08:51 |
| kn100 | hatake_kakashi, they need to be command line | 08:51 |

| kn100 | hatake_kakashi, which would you recommend for simple setup? | 08:52 |
| hatake_kakashi | kn100, probably nettop | 08:52 |
| kn100 | hatake_kakashi, package isn't in repositories | 08:53 |
| crisgrada69 | the error appears after opening the Trash --when full-- !?! | 08:53 |
| hatake_kakashi | kn100, hmm or maybe its under a different name, hang on | 08:53 |
| hatake_kakashi | kn100, try iftop | 08:53 |
| hatake_kakashi | kn100, I think I made a typo, I meant jnettop | 08:54 |
| kn100 | hatake_kakashi, iftop seems to do what I eant | 08:55 |
| Tijn_ | mourning | 08:55 |
| kn100 | iflema, but i'd prefer it if I could just call it, get the result, and the process just ends | 08:55 |
| kn100 | like when you cat /proc/loadavg | 08:56 |
| kn100 | it just lists it | 08:56 |

| * North_Italian69 is away: Gone away for now | 08:59 | |
| KB1JWQ | North_Italian69: Don't do that here. | 09:00 |
| lov255 | hatake - yeah this time it only got to 26%, lsat time it was at 90 - it is trying to say faulty CD-Rom or HD on the error, but I highly doubt it | 09:00 |
| lov255 | I will burn another CD if it happens again | 09:00 |
| calrik | try burning it at lowest speed | 09:01 |
| hatake_kakashi | lov255, what you should do is make a bootable usb flash drive with ubuntu installer, boot your computer from USB and install from there.. and don't have wireless dongle plugged in | 09:01 |
| littlepenguin | lov255 i have added an entry for the app. it does not aks for sudo pw anymore but i also get permission denied | 09:02 |
| littlepenguin | @hakake katashi i meant.. | 09:02 |
| hatake_kakashi | littlepenguin, that made no sense, it might mean you don't have execute permissions | 09:03 |
| lov255 | 26% bombed again...errrm....I can use use a USB HD to install right? | 09:05 |
| hatake_kakashi | probably but not ideal | 09:06 |

| kubanc | what does the command "sudo -u root" means? | 09:13 |
| Theaxiom | kubanc, that puts you in root | 09:14 |
| hatake_kakashi | The -u (user) option causes sudo to run the specified command as a user other than root. To specify a uid instead of a username, use #uid. When running commands as a uid, many shells require that the ’#’ be escaped with a backslash (’\’). Note that if the targetpw Defaults option is set (see sudoers(5)) it is not possible to run commands with a uid not listed in the password database. | 09:14 |

| preston | does anyone have any information as to why i now have the pae kernel installed after my ubuntu install and update | 09:17 |
| lov255 | what is a pea kernel? | 09:17 |
| Maser | some Jesus greatly disapproves of. | 09:18 |
| Maser | *something | 09:18 |
| hatake_kakashi | you mean pae, its to allow kernel to do things in 64bit | 09:18 |
| preston | Physical Address Extension | 09:18 |
| hatake_kakashi | physical address extension | 09:18 |

| lov255 | nope we are good past 27% :) Had to have been the CD or Dongle | 09:20 |
| Niglop | how can I import icons then make them default? | 09:20 |
| preston | can you see if you have pae installed | 09:20 |
| hatake_kakashi | preston, probably via dpkg -l linux-pae or *pae* | 09:20 |
| hatake_kakashi | preston, or you mean if the cpu has this support? | 09:21 |
| SwedeMike | preston: yes, the kernel says pae (bigmem on debian) in it. | 09:21 |
| preston | i just installed and updated I didnt select pae | 09:21 |
| Niglop | somebody help me please :)? | 09:22 |
| preston | and ive got a 32 bit cpu and 1 gig of ram? | 09:22 |
| hounge | hello | 09:22 |
| hatake_kakashi | preston, no idea, but does it really matter? :) | 09:22 |
| SwedeMike | Maser: actually PAE makes a lot of sense in some systems, where I'd say it's actually better to run a PAE kernel than to have a 64bit kernel and OS and run 32bit wrapper for the apps that need it. | 09:22 |
| SwedeMike | Maser: and for general desktop system, I'd say PAE is better tradeoff than running 64bit with all the application problems that causes. | 09:22 |
| preston | does 10.04 install it by default? | 09:23 |
| SwedeMike | preston: no. | 09:23 |
| hounge | i just installed ubuntu on my laptop, i want to put win xp on my external usb hard drive can i dual boot this way? | 09:23 |
| nagendra | I have installed kubuntu desktop on ubuntu. But the boot screen has chaged showing kubuntu. I want back my original ubuntu boot screen. What should i do? | 09:23 |
| Theaxiom | hounge, of course | 09:23 |
| preston | sorry it just bugs me that i dont have an answer asto how it happened | 09:24 |
| lov255 | hounge: you would have to change your computers boot cycle each time you want to boot in the USB | 09:24 |
| OldMonk | hi | 09:24 |
| lov255 | But I can not see why you would not be able to do it | 09:24 |
| hounge | i'm having trouble getting the xp to boot from external usb drive ( i know this isn't a windoze chat sorry) | 09:24 |
| OldMonk | someone suggest how to install g++ on lucid (10.04)? | 09:24 |
| Theaxiom | hounge, did you mark the partition on the drive as bootable? | 09:25 |
| tensorpudding | OldMonk: if you want g++, install the build-essential package | 09:25 |
| hounge | yeah and it shows up on the grub screen but goes blue scren on me | 09:25 |
| tensorpudding | it includes GCC and a good amount of other stuff you probably want, like make | 09:25 |
| hatake_kakashi | preston, I think it could just be a glitch in the repository, I have had similar thing happening to be back once when there were updates for kernel marked as amd64. I have a 64bit capable cpu but I chose to install 32bit on it.. I waited for a while and eventually the glitch disappeared and I get kernel update for x86 | 09:25 |
| === keld is now known as Kvik | ||
| Theaxiom | hounge, sorry, I can't help you there | 09:26 |
| OldMonk | tensorpudding: got it, thanks | 09:26 |
| hounge | i thought it might be a windoze issue but figured i'd check here too | 09:26 |
| ShapeShifter499 | hi | 09:26 |
| hounge | Thank you | 09:26 |
| hatake_kakashi | hounge, it could just be the way you need to configure grub/grub2 | 09:27 |
| stopher123 | Hello! I'm using ntpd, and all of our devices use a 0 adjustment for time zone. I'm trying to get the server to give the devices time in a -7 adjustment automatically. Is this possible? | 09:27 |
| hounge | hatake, tell me more? | 09:27 |
| parapan | hi there fellows > does someone know by any chance a linux program similar to Crystal reports ??? | 09:29 |
| hatake_kakashi | hounge, windows is very specific about how it is to be booted, I'm not sure under grub2 but under grub and for windows installed on a non-removable disk (i.e. fixed or the drive is inside the machine) you need to append something like rootnoverify. Alas there might be #grub channel | 09:29 |
| SwedeMike | stopher123: ntp is always in one time format, local time is set on the local system. afaik ntp doesn't have timezones. | 09:29 |
| hounge | hatake, thank you i'll look into it | 09:29 |
| hunterm | lots of good helping going on in here :) | 09:30 |
| littlepenguin | hatake_kakashi: it seems i cant change mac because of the virtual machine,..on another system it works | 09:30 |
| hatake_kakashi | hounge, no worries | 09:30 |
| kindofabuzz | I have 10.04 installed on a USB hd with an encrypted home. I wanna pull a file off of that hd on another computer. how to i "see" the encrypted home? It mounts fine, just encrypted | 09:31 |
| stopher123 | SwedeMike: Thanks, our old NTP software ran on Windows and let us make an adjustment so all devices that were set to 0 or didn't have their own adjustment were actually getting the -7 time. I just don't know how to push that using the linux ntpd. | 09:31 |
| hunterm | kindofabuzz: try opening nautilus as root, and trying to open the encrypted home | 09:31 |
| hatake_kakashi | littlepenguin, well yeah virtual machines can complicate matters for those unaware, if you changed the mac address of the guest OS and you're not using bridged networking, your external iface mac address remains the same as per host OS config | 09:32 |
| hunterm | kindofabuzz: it might show that you don't have permission (even as root), but it always displayed the contents anyway. | 09:32 |
| littlepenguin | hatake_kakashi: ahhhhhhh thanks a lot for this info | 09:32 |
| kindofabuzz | hunterm: doesn't that defeat the purpose of encrypted? | 09:32 |
| hunterm | kindofabuzz: ;/ | 09:32 |
| hunterm | kindofabuzz: yeah. | 09:32 |
| hatake_kakashi | littlepenguin, no worries | 09:32 |

| stopher123 | SwedeMike: Yes. | 09:34 |
| kindofabuzz | hunterm: that doesn't work, and i'm glad it didn't. like i said, that would defeat the purpose of being encrypted | 09:34 |
| hunterm | hmm, always worked for me. | 09:34 |
| hunterm | probably a bad thing though :P | 09:34 |
| brijithmac | Auto start script is not working properly. I have put a script in init.d. I could found it running but I am not getting the expected result | 09:34 |
| SwedeMike | stopher123: hm, never heard about any mechanism where the clients would get timezone via ntp. | 09:34 |
| kindofabuzz | hunterm: it's still encrypted, looking at something as root doesn't unencrypt it | 09:35 |
| brijithmac | Hi all , Auto start script is not working properly. I have put a script in init.d. I could found it running but I am not getting the expected result. Please help me | 09:35 |
| kindofabuzz | decrypt? | 09:35 |
| qwd | What's the difference between encrypting a drive during installation and with Gnomes Disk Utility? When doing it during installation it takes a long time but with disk utility it was fast. | 09:35 |
| hunterm | i don't know of a method to do that :/ | 09:35 |
| hunterm | chroot into the drive? | 09:35 |
| hunterm | i dunno :/ | 09:35 |
| kindofabuzz | yeah i'll try that | 09:35 |
| brijithmac | Hi all , Auto start script is not working properly. I have put a script in init.d. I could found it running but I am not getting the expected result. Please help me | 09:36 |
| hunterm | brijithmac: what is the expected result? | 09:36 |
| brijithmac | hunterm: A notification. Usually appear at the top right corner .. notify-send is the command I used.. | 09:37 |
| hunterm | brijithmac: would you mind posting the script to pastebin? i can help better if i have the script. | 09:38 |
| xeviox | why is it not possible to write to /etc/apt/sources.list with sudo? | 09:38 |
| hunterm | xeviox: works for me... | 09:39 |

| xeviox | hunterm: ~$ sudo echo "## TESCHT" >> /etc/apt/sources.list | 09:39 |
| xeviox | bash: /etc/apt/sources.list: Permission denied | 09:39 |

| bazhang | xeviox, you need a text editor? | 09:40 |
| brijithmac | hunterm:ok | 09:40 |
| brijithmac | hunterm:In a minute | 09:40 |
| bazhang | xeviox, try sudo nano or gksu gedit | 09:40 |
| hunterm | xeviox: you just have the command wrong :) try doing it this way (works for me) "echo "## TESCHT" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list | 09:41 |
| hunterm | :) | 09:41 |
| hunterm | or a text editor | 09:41 |
| hunterm | either one | 09:41 |
| erUSUL | hunterm: that will overwritte the file use « tee -a » !! | 09:42 |
| lov255 | Any idea's anyone? | 09:42 |
| hunterm | xeviox: OMG, DO NOT DO THAT | 09:42 |
| brijithmac | hunterm: http://pastebin.com/fVcMFyX9 | 09:42 |
| xeviox | hunterm: ? | 09:42 |
| hunterm | xeviox: echo "## TESCHT" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/source.list is what you need! | 09:43 |
| xeviox | just to avoid problems | 09:43 |
| hunterm | xeviox: just tee overwrites the file! | 09:43 |
| xeviox | I just want to add a couple of sources to the sources list of apt-get | 09:43 |
| xeviox | and it seems that there is no option like apt-get addsrc ... | 09:43 |
| erUSUL | xeviox: hunterm safer better and cleaner is to writte a *new* file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 09:43 |
| xeviox | so I thought of put it in directly | 09:44 |
| hunterm | xeviox: it's a lot easier to just software sources. | 09:44 |
| kindofabuzz | man usb 1.1 is soooooo slow | 09:44 |

| xeviox | so what's the "correct" way to add the sources to apt-get (from a shell script)? | 09:44 |
| kindofabuzz | clcik again :) | 09:44 |
| hunterm | xeviox: tee or making a new file with the source line in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 09:45 |
| brijithmac | hunterm: http://pastebin.com/fVcMFyX9 check ?? | 09:45 |
| hunterm | brijithmac: i'm looking, be patient :) | 09:45 |
| lov255 | No suggestions? | 09:45 |
| brijithmac | hunterm: Ok :) | 09:46 |
| kindofabuzz | lov255: clcik and wait a minute or so, sometimes the installer can be slow depending on the system | 09:46 |
| erUSUL | xeviox: i would make a new file in the dir i pointed out later | 09:46 |
| lov255 | HHhhmmm it is saying I do not have enough disk space!!! Weird | 09:46 |

| brijithmac | hunterm:I mean I want to do that from inside a script .. any idea ? | 10:00 |
| NeverCast | Hey guys, When my screen saver kicks in after 5 minutes, then I log myself back in when back. The current foreground window wont take keyboard input. This is a major problem if my foreground application is Virtual Box in Full Screen. Because without the Keyboard Focus I can't Unfullscreen with the Host Commands. Meaning the only way to get back to Ubuntu is to shut down the guest system. Anyone know a solution? | 10:00 |
| brijithmac | k0rnz:hello | 10:00 |
| lov255 | this is crazy!! I might have to go back to XP | 10:02 |
| NeverCast | lov255, What you need? | 10:02 |
| lov255 | This is the 3rd time I reinstalled it is not formating my drive correctly | 10:02 |
| NeverCast | lov255,3rd time installing Ubuntu? | 10:02 |
| NeverCast | lov255, What formatting are you wanting? | 10:03 |
| lov255 | It left 750MB out and I believe have like a 300GB HD an it is not showing it all | 10:03 |
| lov255 | Yes NeverCast | 10:03 |
| matthiaskgr_ | hello. I use ubuntu 10.4 and have no sound. | 10:03 |
| rhundt | brijithmac: "to have the same commands run regardless of whether it is a login shell or a subshell. This can be done by using the source command from within .bash_profile to execute .bashrc. You would then simply place all the commands in .bashrc. " | 10:03 |
| NeverCast | lov255, 750MB might be a recovery partion or something else. 750MB isn't so much of a big deal. | 10:04 |
| rhundt | brijithmac: so literally "source <filename>" | 10:04 |
| matthiaskgr_ | according to 'mixer' programm there should be sound | 10:04 |
| rhundt | I *think* is what you're after anyway | 10:04 |
| brijithmac | rhundt: but it will be called when I open a terminal rt ? | 10:04 |
| lov255 | it is only using 500mb - it is only formating 500mb | 10:04 |
| matthiaskgr_ | but headphones as well as speakers fail | 10:04 |
| lov255 | I am going to go through the begining of the install again and see if I am overlooking something | 10:04 |
| rhundt | brijithmac: yep if you add it to .bashrc | 10:04 |
| matthiaskgr_ | yesterday everything sounded fine | 10:05 |
| rhundt | brijithmac: more here: http://www.hypexr.org/bash_tutorial.php | 10:05 |
| trijntje | lov255, gparted shows GiB, not GB,so that also gives a difference | 10:05 |
| NeverCast | lov255, Are you trying to have more than one partion? | 10:05 |
| NeverCast | trigrou, You mean Gb not GB? | 10:05 |
| lov255 | no no I only want 1 partition...I have to see if I am doing something wrong on the setup | 10:05 |
| NeverCast | trijntje* | 10:05 |
| brijithmac | rhundt: But I need the script start running when I login to the gnome desktop | 10:05 |
| NeverCast | lov255, Just format the whole thing, start from scratch, tell it to use your whole HDD. | 10:06 |
| lov255 | THat is what I thought I have been doing NeverCast | 10:06 |
| trijntje | NeverCast, no, GiB instead of GB. My hd is 500 GB which is 465 GiB | 10:06 |
| NeverCast | trijntje, I do believe GiB is the same as GB. | 10:06 |
| NeverCast | 500GB Raw | 10:06 |
| NeverCast | 465GB formatted. | 10:06 |
| trijntje | NeverCast, it is not, GB = 1000 MB, GiB = 1024 MiB | 10:07 |
| trijntje | and so all the way down to B, which gives a big difference for large disks | 10:07 |
| NeverCast | trijntje, Oh really? That is stupid. Which idiot decided to make a GB 1000MB. | 10:07 |
| u_ser | GB means you are using the metrix meaning. GiB means with respect to binary. | 10:07 |
| u_ser | metric | 10:07 |
| matthiaskgr_ | hello. I use ubuntu 10.4 and can't get sound of my notebook. its speakers as well as my headphones fail. according to the 'mixer' program, there should be sound. I tried mocp and totem, but both stay mute | 10:07 |
| trijntje | NeverCast, vendors I'd think | 10:07 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, I've always assumed and interpreted GB as 1024MB. | 10:08 |
| NeverCast | trijntje, Sale tactics. | 10:08 |
| u_ser | GiB = base 2 meaning of the metric prefix Giga | 10:08 |
| rhundt | brijithmac: okay I'd have to try it... I'm pretty sure you used to get a bash shell started when gnome started, but I haven't checked on that in years... otherwise you might try System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications and add your bash script there | 10:08 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, It's not that way with Windows is it? When it reads 2GB, it means 2048MB. | 10:08 |
| u_ser | It is ok. The topic is quite controversial especially in computer science | 10:08 |
| trijntje | mattgyver, run alsamixer in a terminal and put al bars up | 10:09 |
| lov255 | Errrm I have been up over 24 hours.... 116,957 MB is 100GB right? | 10:09 |
| lov255 | Figured it out...errrrm.... | 10:09 |
| trijntje | matthiaskgr_, run alsamixer in a terminal and put al bars up | 10:09 |
| lov255 | The versions I was installing where creating new partitions and the partition manger was not picking it up.... | 10:09 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, There should be a convention, a 'standard'. And it should be used world wide. | 10:09 |
| lov255 | okay thanks everyone... | 10:09 |
| brijithmac | rhundt: ok.. is there any way to do this .. through terminal . .I want to do that from a shell script | 10:10 |
| u_ser | I agree NeverCast, but look at the internet and all these application protocols there are. I would really like a standardized application level protocol | 10:10 |
| lov255 | It needs to be ext4 right? | 10:11 |
| u_ser | but, everyone has their own idea for how data should be formatted | 10:11 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, I enjoy reverse engineering so I don't share the same opinion on that :P | 10:11 |
| u_ser | and transmitted | 10:11 |
| lov255 | I am installing ubuntu 10.04 | 10:11 |
| matthiaskgr_ | trijntje: it doesn't help :( | 10:12 |
| Slart | lov255: ubuntu can be installed on ext2/3/4, xfs and a some other formats.. not ntfs or fat32 though | 10:12 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, I do have a Big Endian preference over Little Endian. | 10:12 |
| u_ser | Oh you reverse engineer. How would you capture the machine code instructions of a compiled program? I always wondered that. | 10:12 |
| u_ser | I mean as it executes | 10:12 |
| Slart | !ot | 10:12 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 10:12 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, Use a debugger. | 10:12 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, OllyDbg or IDA in Windows, I've not done a lot of RE in Linux, but Olly does run under wine. | 10:13 |
| jatt | hi, can you recommend a good and cheap scanner supported by ubuntu? | 10:13 |
| szonek | how can i just list packages which can be updated in console? i need it for script | 10:13 |
| lov255 | Okay everyone wish me luck, install #4 for the night | 10:14 |
| u_ser | cool. I have heard of disassemblers but never knew where to find one | 10:14 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, Well what do you wish to disassemble? | 10:15 |
| u_ser | I am not really looking to disassemble anything. I just find the process of reverse engineering interesting. I know how it plays a major role in how malware is written | 10:16 |
| u_ser | I am not interested in making malware | 10:16 |
| heyboy | Hello guys. Is there any how-to available for installing and configuring snort on Ubuntu Lucid? | 10:16 |
| u_ser | god forbid | 10:16 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, I myself possess a similar hobby. I actually run malware in Virtual Machines to pull them apart. | 10:17 |
| u_ser | You mean you reverse engineer the malware itself in a virtual machine? | 10:17 |
| Slart | jatt: why not have a look at the SANE website.. I think they have lists of supported scanners.. you'll have to figure out which scanners are cheap though.. they only list if they work or not | 10:18 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, exactly (: | 10:18 |
| u_ser | oh that is cool | 10:18 |
| Seppoz_work | does ubuntu ship with a firewall by default= | 10:18 |
| Seppoz_work | s/=/? | 10:18 |
| Slart | !firewall | Seppoz_work | 10:19 |
| ubottu | Seppoz_work: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 10:19 |
| u_ser | yes, iptables and Netfilter | 10:19 |
| Seppoz_work | ty | 10:19 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, Virtual Machines are friendly because you can disable network by a checkbox, You can also recover your hard drive in a couple seconds. | 10:19 |
| u_ser | You can get firestarter which makes adding firewall rules very easy as it interfaces with iptables and ultimately Netfilter | 10:19 |
| NeverCast | If only there was a program like Firestarter for Port Forwarding. | 10:20 |
| NeverCast | Instead of using iptables directly -.- | 10:20 |
| NeverCast | Why am I in #ubuntu-unregged. | 10:21 |
| jatt | Slart: thanks | 10:21 |
| NeverCast | Oh maybe I'm not. | 10:21 |
| u_ser | I forget what virtual machines are all about. Do you have to have a logical drive with the OS you want to VM from within another running kernel? | 10:21 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, Nope, The Hard Drives and Images. | 10:21 |
| NeverCast | u_ser, By Virtual, It runs in a Virtual Machine, Virtual Hardware etc. | 10:22 |
| u_ser | oh yes now I remember | 10:22 |
| kubanc | what is best to give to an old computer for booting DSL linux. GRUB or LILO ? | 10:23 |

| passing_lunatic | Hello everyone. I'm having issues with a new wireless card in my laptop | 10:23 |
| passing_lunatic | New card: Intel 6300 (old card was an atheros ar9285) | 10:23 |
| passing_lunatic | Laptop: Sony Vaio CW | 10:23 |
| passing_lunatic | OS: Ubuntu Lucid | 10:23 |
| passing_lunatic | Driver package: linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32-24-generic | 10:23 |
| FloodBot1 | passing_lunatic: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 10:23 |
| passing_lunatic | Issue: Well, the card doesn't do anything. lshw -C network gives the message: network UNCLAIMED tied to the details of the new card. I've checked that /lib/firmware/ contains the correct ucode thingy (iwlwifi-6000-4.ucode). It works after a driver install in Win 7. | 10:23 |
| passing_lunatic | Hello everyone. I'm having issues with a new wireless card in my laptop: http://paste.ubuntu.com/476350/ | 10:25 |
| kubanc | erUSUL, grub gives my error filesystem type unknown, partiiton type 0x7 | 10:26 |
| u_ser | passing_lunatic you will probably have to copy the windows driver to the ndiswrapper | 10:27 |
| === jan247_ is now known as jan247 | ||
| erUSUL | kubanc: what filesystem you choosed ? | 10:27 |
| slow-motion | hi | 10:28 |
| u_ser | you will need to mount your windows file system then copy the driver for your wireless NIC to the ndiswrapper | 10:28 |
| loip | hi | 10:28 |
| kubanc | erUSUL, if i look for hda1, where DSL should get installed i see that the filesystem is NTFS. but i used fdisk, and created parition ext2 on this device | 10:29 |
| loip | i need a 1 friend | 10:29 |
| loip | boy | 10:29 |
| lov255 | I got the unrecoverable error again :( | 10:29 |

| ChrisBuchholz | hey - i'm having trouble installing the android sdk on ubuntu 10.04 x64. ADB devices doesnt find my phone - i have tried adding the 51-android.rules file to /etc/udev/rules.d, but doesnt work either | 10:30 |
| passing_lunatic | Should I uninstall the native driver package in that case? | 10:31 |
| u_ser | passing_lunatic, you shouldn't have to uninstall the native driver. Linux resides on a different partition. | 10:32 |
| u_ser | Than your windows partition | 10:33 |
| bacon | hi | 10:34 |
| bacon | I'd liek to know, is it possible to use the command "ar" with a tar.gz file? | 10:34 |
| u_ser | example: sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt | 10:34 |
| bacon | like ar -t myfile.tar.gz | 10:34 |
| ChrisBuchholz | find this link and now it works: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AndroidScreenshots | 10:34 |
| u_ser | then, after you do that, you will type sudo cp /mnt/windows/system/32/drivers/driver_file_name /etc/ndiswrapper | 10:35 |
| u_ser | then, after you do that, you will type sudo cp /mnt/windows/system32/drivers/driver_file_name /etc/ndiswrapper | 10:35 |
| u_ser | oops typo @ extra '/' | 10:35 |
| kubanc | erUSUL, on /dev/hda1 i created partition /dev/hda1p1, what next? do i need to use mkfs ? | 10:36 |
| u_ser | I think Ubuntu 10.04 has changed the directories around a bit. ndiswrapper is probably somewhere else | 10:36 |
| Oer | bacon http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man1/ar.1.html | 10:36 |
| erUSUL | kubanc: !? what? i said change partition type no *make* *new* partition | 10:36 |
| bacon | Oer: thanks, I was confused because when doing ar -t on a tar.gz file, output was :"hello_1.0-1.tar.gz: File format not recognized " | 10:37 |
| matthiaskrgr_ | I rebooted but still have no sound on my system | 10:37 |
| kubanc | erUSUL, yes, but there was no parition on disk, so i needed to do a new one, or am i false with this decision? | 10:37 |

| Oer | bacon, manual gives me : a limit on member-name length may be imposed for compatibility with archive formats maintained with other tools. If it exists, the limit is often 15 characters | 10:43 |
| awk | Seppoz_work, or you can startup in single user mode and change the run level to level 3 | 10:43 |

| depesz | hi. got a weird problem - my laptop starts really fast, but I don't see any kind of grub prompt. I'd like to get grub prompt to choose memtest - how can I do it? | 10:52 |
| depesz | it's 10.4 | 10:52 |
| erUSUL | depesz: press shift during boot | 10:52 |
| depesz | worst case - I can burn, and boot from cd, but i'd prefer to use normal grub boot menu | 10:53 |
| depesz | erUSUL: i am nearly sure I did it - will test of course now, again. | 10:53 |
| === nand_ is now known as nand | ||
| === wzkOFF is now known as wzk | ||
| erUSUL | depesz: or you can edit /etc/default/grub to make the menu appear allways | 10:54 |
| depesz | same thing - i was pressing shift all the time from issuing "reboot" to getting kdm. | 10:54 |
| depesz | ah. checking, thanks | 10:54 |
| erUSUL | depesz: or maybe just increasing HIDDEN_TIMEOUT ( to 2 seconds or so ) so you have time to press shift | 10:55 |
| jpag87a | Hi, I have this problem: my computer starts beeping very loudly when shutting down, the snd_pcsp and pcspkr are already blacklisted in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf (the only solution I get when searching everywhere on the Web). This doesn't happen all the time, but I really need to get rid of the beeping, since it has happened at office and is very embarrasing (and will get me berated soon for sure). I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 (Linux 2.6.31-22-generic #61-Ub | 10:55 |
| kubanc | erUSUL, i found the command. it's "cat /etc/fstab" | 10:55 |
| depesz | erUSUL: did it, and still - there is no menu ? | 10:56 |
| erUSUL | jpag87a: maybe the motherboard complaining about something ( hardware problem ) | 10:56 |
| erUSUL | jpag87a: if it is during bios test etc it surely can not be ubuntu | 10:56 |
| erUSUL | depesz: then enable the menu. comment out ( putting a # in fron of the line) all the lines that have HIDDEN in /etc/default/grub | 10:57 |
| llutz | kubanc: "sudo blkid" shows the real filesystems | 10:57 |
| depesz | interestingly - my otrher computer has the same config (with 0 in timeout) and it shows menu! | 10:58 |
| erUSUL | depesz: you have to run « sudo update-grub » for the changes to take effect | 10:58 |
| depesz | erUSUL: sure, i ran it. | 10:58 |
| erUSUL | depesz: you did it after changing the timeout ? | 10:58 |

| sinead | hey, i'm having an issue with the newest ubuntu, Seems like i'm not getting no sound ;[ | 10:58 |
| delby | hello, i have an old pc running 8.04 lts. i was wondering whether i should run aptitude safe-upgrade or not. i am wondering whether the upgrades will slow my machine down. | 10:59 |
| jpag87a | @erUSUL: Bios test on shutdown? Mmm... cant it be? I use Windows regularly too and it never happens there... that's what I thought it could be a Ubuntu problem. I remember it also happened like three times when I used 8.04. more than two years ago | 11:00 |
| sinead | delby: whats your systems specs? | 11:00 |
| depesz | erUSUL: hmm ... not it works. | 11:00 |
| depesz | erUSUL: *now*. thanks a lot. | 11:00 |

| sinead | just don't botherith 10.4 | 11:04 |
| sinead | bother with* | 11:04 |
| sinead | soon as i just installed it i have no sound, but some people do tend to ignore your question | 11:05 |
| delby | sinead: sorry to repeat, but does that mean that it is ok to run 'aptitude safe-upgrade'? | 11:05 |
| erUSUL | delby: aptitude safe-upgrade wont upgrade the distribution in itself | 11:06 |
| delby | erUSUL: ok, but might it slow my machine down because it upgraded the packages? | 11:07 |
| erUSUL | delby: it shouldn't; packages only get security bugfixes. Not enough a change | 11:08 |
| erUSUL | delby: to slow down a package i meant | 11:08 |

| ServerTech | It did install. But gives some error post installation. | 11:10 |
| ServerTech | installation was with sudo apt-get install lm-sensors | 11:11 |
| yofel | ServerTech: can you give us the error message? (in a pastebin if it's multiple lines) | 11:12 |
| paissad | guys, i googled quickly, but i did not find the name of the next ubuntu release | 11:12 |
| paissad | does someone know it ? | 11:12 |
| ServerTech | umm it actually tells me to enable the modules | 11:12 |
| ServerTech | i tried many time | 11:12 |
| ServerTech | and also asked here | 11:12 |
| erUSUL | !10.10 | 11:12 |
| ubottu | Maverick Meerkat is the codename for Ubuntu 10.10, due October 2010 - Maverick is Not released and Not Stable, discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 11:12 |
| ServerTech | But nothing worked | 11:12 |
| paissad | erUSUL, thanks | 11:13 |
| yofel | ServerTech: well, it should ask you to enable the modules it needs | 11:13 |
| ssureshot | where is the config files for upstart ? | 11:13 |
| ServerTech | yah i try to enable it | 11:13 |
| ServerTech | it does not get enables, i asked the command here too and enter | 11:13 |
| ServerTech | entered | 11:13 |
| ServerTech | butit did not work | 11:13 |
| yofel | ssureshot: you mean the init scripts? /etc/init/ | 11:14 |
| ssureshot | yofel: oh man... it's too early for this... staring me in the face I should have known that one.. | 11:15 |
| yofel | heh | 11:15 |
| StaffanE | shouldn't "sudo apt-get --ignore-hold upgrade" work? | 11:16 |
| yofel | ServerTech: did you use sudo? 'sudo sensors-detect' ? | 11:16 |
| ServerTech | no | 11:16 |
| yofel | it might need admin priviledges to enable the modules | 11:17 |
| Milp_main | Wasnt there an application for ubuntu that was similar to the system monitor in windows 7? | 11:17 |

| ShapeShifter499 | saravan: um.... not quite sure, ask someone else, I'm a bit of a noobie my self | 11:24 |
| saravan | Shape, tx bye | 11:25 |
| yofel | ShapeShifter499: odd, I can join #debian fine, iirc you should get send to another channel that explains why you can't join it? | 11:25 |
| yofel | saravan: wait | 11:25 |
| yofel | saravan: what type of video file? how does it fail to play it? | 11:25 |
| yofel | ah sound.. | 11:25 |
| ShapeShifter499 | yofel: I just get a "#debian Cannot join channel (+b) - you are banned" in my status tab | 11:25 |
| saravan | yofel. ok dude | 11:25 |
| yofel | eeek | 11:26 |
| saravan | yofel,dvd's | 11:26 |
| ShapeShifter499 | yofel: I've never used debian in 5 years, and I never go to their distro channel, till now. | 11:27 |
| andyn | ShapeShifter499: they have banned all web gateways | 11:27 |
| yofel | saravan: ok, I'm not sure, but can you go to the preferences, and in Audio select Pulseaudio as audio output? | 11:27 |
| andyn | ShapeShifter499: so get a real irc client and you'll be discussing with them in no time | 11:27 |
| ShapeShifter499 | andyn: including the offical freenode one? | 11:27 |
| andyn | #debian: ban *!*@gateway/web/freenode/* [by dondelelcaro!~don@rzlab3.ucr.edu, 1669962 secs ago] | 11:28 |
| ShapeShifter499 | andyn: hmm... they should only do that if the nick trying to join is not registered or if its been banned from another irc client | 11:28 |
| ShapeShifter499 | andyn: ok well thanks for telling me that... | 11:29 |
| ShapeShifter499 | andyn: just installed debian so I have no irc... any suggestions? | 11:29 |
| yofel | ShapeShifter499: for terminal use irssi, gnome xchat, kde quassel | 11:30 |
| yofel | those are my favorites | 11:30 |
| bluegene | hi. anyone knows how to fix locales on 10.04 lts? `locale` says LC_* = POSIX | 11:31 |
| ShapeShifter499 | yofel: ok I'll try xchat, thanks :D | 11:31 |
| ShapeShifter499 | hmm never been to the ubuntu channel without "quiet join/leave" enabled | 11:33 |
| bluegene | bad idea, ShapeShifter499 | 11:33 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ? | 11:33 |
| YankDownUnder | Xchat...? OMG What's that? Dirty chat? :) | 11:33 |
| andyn | no, that would definitely be xxxchat | 11:33 |
| yofel | ... | 11:33 |
| ShapeShifter499 | bluegene: bad idea? what xchat? | 11:34 |
| YankDownUnder | Ah right - yeah - don't have that installed (yet)...only stuck with this doggone xchat thingo... | 11:34 |
| * YankDownUnder taps the xchat icon | 11:35 | |
| andyn | i prefer irssi because it's a console app and thus it can be used remotely | 11:35 |
| YankDownUnder | Nope...no pr0n there... | 11:35 |
| * yofel uses quassel client with remote core | 11:36 | |
| andyn | and i also route my msn and google talk through a bitlbee gateway | 11:36 |
| YankDownUnder | If you're using irssi remotely, does that imply that you've got really long arms? | 11:36 |
| andyn | squeezing those hands through thin ssh pipes is a bit cumbersome sometimes | 11:37 |
| YankDownUnder | Mighty small dem pipes is! | 11:37 |
| parsa | i cant install ati radeon s300 driver plz on kubentu help me | 11:37 |
| andyn | and the encryption gives me a tingling | 11:37 |
| YankDownUnder | I get tingling feelings when I sever my arms completely. | 11:37 |
| YankDownUnder | MEANWHILE, ATI Radeon, parsa ? | 11:38 |
| ShapeShifter499 | now on xchat :D | 11:40 |
| * ShapeShifter499 wonders why he hasn't used this before | 11:40 | |
| yofel | parsa: the hardware drivers application should be able to install that if fglrx supports your card (I don't know much about ati) | 11:41 |

| === erkan is now known as _KAAN_ | ||
| karlo | om26er, I didn't try to play youtube videos before, and YankDownUnder, no | 11:44 |

| YankDownUnder | karlo, Ok mate - best thing to do, my friend, is to open up the Synaptic Package Mangler and in the search box, type "restricted" - thence you will see a list of "restricted" packages - which you can TICK, and then APPLY and then install... | 11:45 |
| YankDownUnder | S'all good! And then when you're done, you buy the pizza and beer. Right? Right! | 11:45 |

| ubottu | rain_: 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 | 13:17 |
| rain_ | it wont get windos to boot up | 13:17 |
| dominick | rain_, I told you. Install os-prober and then update-grub! | 13:18 |
| rain_ | managed to boot up ubuntus but no luck with wins | 13:18 |
| rain_ | installed | 13:18 |
| rain_ | and updated too | 13:18 |
| dominick | update-grub | 13:18 |
| rain_ | but no help | 13:18 |
| dominick | can you show the output of update-grub > | 13:18 |
| termtermterm | Hello, I have a ubuntu server, just has root, what is the super-easy, normal, user-oriented way of saying "create a new user, copy the skel files, and add them as sudoer, exactle like a default user in ubuntu" | 13:18 |
| dominick | ? | 13:18 |
| rain_ | severel updates made | 13:18 |
| === lance_ is now known as Guest94005 | ||
| rain_ | it makes it to file menu.lst | 13:19 |
| termtermterm | and don't say adduser unless you mean it (because it doesn't) | 13:19 |
| rain_ | there seem to be all ok | 13:19 |
| dominick | rain_, grub2 does not have a menu.lst | 13:19 |
| rain_ | but grub2 reads from grub.cfg file | 13:19 |
| researcher1 | 1 USB is created from Startup Disk Creator but does not boot laptop. Asks for password. Any guidance | 13:19 |
| rain_ | update changes menu file | 13:19 |
| termtermterm | so, how do you really make a new user, with one argument (for blank password) or two arguments (to set password) | 13:19 |
| Tricks | alright guys I've followed a guide to setup SSL on ubuntu, but now when i go to https://localhost I get error: Unable to connect | 13:19 |
| phlak_user | researcher1: enter password | 13:19 |
| termtermterm | let me tell you the api I want, and you see if it exists, or argue that I am stupid | 13:20 |
| Tricks | self signed cert | 13:20 |
| rain_ | I traied to chane grun.cfg manually but no luck | 13:20 |
| termtermterm | createDefaultUbuntuUser(String username, String password); | 13:20 |
| termtermterm | that would be nice | 13:20 |
| termtermterm | any luck with that? | 13:20 |
| researcher1 | phlak I dont have it | 13:20 |
| dominick | rain_, if you want to have a quick fix, add the lines inserted by update-grub in menu.lst into grub.cfg | 13:20 |
| termtermterm | how to create a new, default, like out of the box, ubuntu user? | 13:20 |
| termtermterm | in one command | 13:20 |
| === kek_ is now known as kekl | ||
| dominick | termtermterm, adduser username | 13:21 |
| rain_ | it add choises but wount boot up | 13:21 |
| G_G | phlak_user: thanks for your help | 13:21 |
| Tricks | can anybody help with the above | 13:21 |
| termtermterm | dominick: see my previous message, that is incorrect | 13:21 |
| phlak_user | researcher1: lets get this straight; is the laptop (bios) asking for password or the ubuntu login screen? | 13:21 |
| termtermterm | dominick: try it yourself, adduser is fundementally flawed and doesn't add to the default groups (no sudo) | 13:21 |
| rain_ | I have 2 hdds and 4 OS (2 ubuntus and 2 win xp) | 13:22 |
| dominick | termtermterm, you must manually add to sudo "visudo" | 13:22 |
| termtermterm | I don't want to sudoedit every time. I want a command to create a normal ubuntu user, in a _standard_ way | 13:22 |
| topyli | termtermterm: new users aren't supposed to be sudoers | 13:22 |
| termtermterm | dominick: yes, I know, I just saud the same thing, topyli you are wrong | 13:22 |
| topyli | eh? | 13:22 |
| termtermterm | you are talking about your new users? my new users are supposed to be sudoers | 13:22 |
| termtermterm | hence, they are | 13:22 |
| Pici | termtermterm: And you don't need to touch your sudoers file, just add them to the admin group. | 13:22 |
| llutz | termtermterm: "sudo adduser user admin" no need to visudo | 13:22 |
| topyli | termtermterm: your user management is weird then, non need to break ubuntu defaults | 13:23 |
| kekl | termtermterm, where are "default groups" defined? | 13:23 |
| dominick | termtermterm, not everyone should be given sudo rights. If you still want to add your custome adduser settings, read the linux administration guide to adding new users. | 13:23 |
| termtermterm | Pici: llutz thanks for that, I know that trick, I am just hoping I can "createStandardUser newuser roflcopter" | 13:23 |
| termtermterm | and that command will evolve and always do the right thing | 13:23 |
| dominick | kekl, I guess in /etc/addusr.conf | 13:23 |
| Pici | termtermterm: write a bash script then. | 13:23 |
| termtermterm | dominick: please reference where I suggest all users should be sudoers. i am not saying that. Yeah, but it should already exist.DRY. how are people working without standard, abstracted and good APIs? | 13:24 |
| termtermterm | why are the APIs so bad? look at adduser. You press enter 6 times entirely redundantly, because of a broken design, because the programmer thought "hey, i could do some extra pointless work here" | 13:24 |
| Tricks | ah nevermind it turns out I needed to stop then start apache for the changes to take effect... looks like reload doesn't work with SSL installation | 13:24 |
| termtermterm | anyway. wasting my time. I just hoped someone would undestand the point, thanks anyway! :) | 13:25 |
| termtermterm | kekl: default groups are defined by consensus? when you install ubuntu, you have a default group (and the mechanism for that is probably the skeleton user?) | 13:25 |
| dominick | termtermterm, try creating an alias. Although, can you add an input parameter to alias? | 13:26 |
| termtermterm | dominick: good point... probably not, because it evals? I can just add a function to my bashrc though | 13:26 |
| asal | hi all | 13:26 |
| asal | i have a problem with my usb flash mass storage as follows | 13:26 |
| llutz | termtermterm: try useradd | 13:26 |
| termtermterm | but still, I would have to MANUALLY update that file, checking it stayed relevant | 13:26 |
| asal | when i insert my flash in usb port it is detected by linux & kde but it is mounter only as read-only | 13:27 |
| termtermterm | llutz: yeah, useradd is pointless | 13:27 |
| asal | and when i use the command "dd of=/dev/sda count=1 bs=512" | 13:27 |
| asal | it reports me that the file-syste is read-only | 13:27 |
| asal | this matter is repeated by any linux that i htested including ubuntu-10.10 and knoppix 5.1 and 5.3 | 13:27 |
| termtermterm | I want createUser(username, password) and it creates it to the current releases ideas of a default user, you know? it isn't demanding, it is just the correct API that should exist. Anyway, it is ok. | 13:27 |
| asal | s there anyone knowing my solution? | 13:27 |
| phlak_user | asal: is it mounted rw? | 13:27 |
| termtermterm | I didn't expect it existing, I just hoped to make a point :SD | 13:27 |
| termtermterm | thanks, and ciao | 13:28 |
| Pici | termtermterm: hey | 13:28 |
| phlak_user | asal: or is the write protect on? | 13:28 |
| llutz | termtermterm: you don't want any app having the password shown on cli | 13:28 |
| Pici | Anyway... Ijust looked at the adduser manpage, (NOT useradd), look at /etc/adduser.conf for adding new default parameters. | 13:28 |
| sacarlson | asal: ya some usb flash have a switch on the side that make them read only | 13:29 |
| asal | phlak_user; it is mounted ro and my flash memory does NOT have a key for its write-protecting | 13:29 |
| ZummiG777 | Question: I've got a 4 NIC ethernet card in an ubuntu server and every time I reboot the old eth0, eth1s go away and new eth5, eth6 etcs appear. I believe the card is generating new MACs per reboot - is there a way to 'fix' the mac addresses? | 13:29 |
| taulus | Erm! Where should I install application software in Ubuntu? | 13:29 |
| phlak_user | asal: if its mounted ro, you need to mount it as rw | 13:29 |

| asal | it can worked read-write befor polutted with a virus ( on a Windows-XP machine) | 13:31 |
| sacarlson | asal: reformat it? | 13:32 |
| phlak_user | taulus: joomla will normally come with an installation script/wizard which will detect if you have apache/mysql etc installed. just follow the documentation | 13:32 |
| asal | sacarlson: it can not be accessed by any command that want to write on any sectors of it | 13:32 |
| sacarlson | asal: play with it with gparted | 13:32 |
| sacarlson | asal: umount it then play with it in gparted | 13:33 |
| asal | for example the dd command that want to access the /dev/sda device directly reported me that this device is write protected | 13:33 |
| phlak_user | taulus: like here --> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Joomla | 13:33 |
| sacarlson | asal: was it already mounted? it must be unmounted I think to do that | 13:34 |

| jpag87a | Hi, I have this problem: my computer starts beeping very loudly when shutting down, the snd_pcsp and pcspkr are already blacklisted in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf (the only solution I get when searching everywhere on the Web). This doesn't happen all the time, but I really need to get rid of the beeping, since it has happened at office and is very embarrasing (and will get me berated soon for sure). I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 (Linux 2.6.31-22-generic #61-Ub | 13:54 |
| spaceterz | ok | 13:54 |
| punch | asal: i'm not a linux user; making themes for irc client...ubuntu is the best room to test in cause so busy; ie. permissions is the only possibility i could think of | 13:54 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | hi back in time i must have changed some preferences and now in my "update manager" does not appear the "upgrade the system" button any more, how do i restore it? thanks | 13:55 |
| tucemiux | jpag87a, try disabling system sounds, I dont know why ubuntu would want to beep when shutting down, it usually makes one beep when booting up | 13:56 |
| spaceterz | how much enthusiasm ubuntu users .. where you live? | 13:56 |
| zeffy | Can i as proftpd related question? no one @ #proftpd there answers.. | 13:56 |
| bazhang | spaceterz, #ubuntu-offtopic please | 13:56 |
| tucemiux | IpSe_DiXiT, what version of ubuntu do you have? | 13:56 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | tucemiux: 8.10 | 13:57 |
| barberan | what can I do interesting with my ubuntu ? | 13:57 |
| phlak_user | zeffy: you could try | 13:57 |
| jpag87a | @tucemiux You mean Sound Preferences > Sound effects > Sound theme : No sounds? It's already set up that way... | 13:57 |
| sacarlson | asal: there are tool to program usb flash drives to make them change there id and make them look biger than they realy are. that's the scam the chinese are using to sell fake usb flash drives. these tools go beyond what linux can do. look for usb flash counterfit on google and you will see. | 13:57 |
| aeon-ltd | barberan: like wut? | 13:58 |
| barberan | aeon-ltd, do not know... may be some desktop weather widget ? | 13:58 |
| bareego | Or sometimes they'd sell drive with faulty sections in the middle somewhere | 13:58 |
| barberan | aeon-ltd, or quick start menu at the bottom of the screen... I wish it's possible | 13:59 |
| trijntje | barberan, gdesklets + awn | 13:59 |
| tucemiux | IpSe_DiXiT, there is no "Upgrade" option in your "Update Manager" GUI telling you there is a new ubuntu release available? You must have made a change in your "software sources" and made it so that you dont get that message | 13:59 |
| alienkid10 | I am booting off a USB HDD and when after the GRUB menu but before GDM All I get is a blank screen then the boot splash for a second then GDM. Pressing del or F1 or anything to see details doesn't work. Anyway to fix this? | 14:00 |
| Yerushalmi | Anybody know how/if I can edit the Indicator Applet? I want to keep the volume icon there but get rid of the chat/mail/broadcast icon, which I have no use for. If there's an alternate way to get the sound icon up there that's also good. | 14:00 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | tucemiux: isnt this exactly what i said like 5 mins ago? <<<IpSe_DiXiT> hi back in time i must have changed some preferences and now in my "update manager" does not appear the "upgrade the system" button any more, how do i restore it? thanks>> | 14:00 |
| TiK | question: I setup my router not to broadcast SSID now everytime I rebot I ave t "connect to hidden network" why doesn't it autoconnect anymore? | 14:00 |

| TiK | question: I setup my router not to broadcast SSID now everytime I reboot I have to "connect to hidden network" why doesn't it autoconnect anymore? | 14:01 |

| sacarlson | Yerushalmi: I wanted the same thing when I acidently deleted the mail and didn't know It deleted the volume also | 14:01 |
| administrator__ | hell | 14:01 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | tucemiux: found it, bye | 14:01 |
| aeon-ltd | barberan: dude, anything is possible with linux (within reason) | 14:01 |
| tucemiux | IpSe_DiXiT, I have 9.10, on the update manager there is an option stating "Upgrade", not "upgrade the system", I suppose that is what you have in 8.10 -- | 14:01 |

| Yerushalmi | sacarlson: So I'm assuming you're saying it's impossible? | 14:01 |
| iggy_ | 6. Modify the blacklist to include the ‘b43′ and ’ssb’ drivers /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf (Add below the bcm43xx blacklist) | 14:01 |
| iggy_ | how would i do that | 14:02 |
| aeon-ltd | barberan: anything here is possible https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=102058&p=1 | 14:02 |
| sacarlson | Yerushalmi: no I'm just saying I don't know but I'm with you | 14:02 |
| TiK | alienkid10: I don't think you can boot off an external hdd | 14:02 |
| alienkid10 | Tik: make a new wireless connection and make sure to click "connect automatically" | 14:02 |
| Yerushalmi | sacarlson: Hehe. | 14:02 |
| iggy_ | whats the blacklist? | 14:02 |
| TiK | alienkid10: hm ok | 14:02 |

| kk_hacker | hello, due to some forced reason I need to unwillingly setup IE^ on my Ubuntu lucid (10.04) machine. Can some one tell me the most streight forward process? | 14:03 |
| tucemiux | jpag87a, that sounds like a bug | 14:03 |
| iggy_ | so how would i do what that step was telling me | 14:03 |
| phlak_user | kk_hacker: this is the simplest way --> http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page | 14:03 |
| iggy_ | 6. Modify the blacklist to include the ‘b43′ and ’ssb’ drivers /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf (Add below the bcm43xx blacklist) | 14:03 |
| alienkid10 | Anyone have any ideas why I can't see boot up? Maybe some moudule I need to add? | 14:03 |
| jpag87a | @tucemiux I think that too, and I can't upgrade to 10.04. | 14:04 |
| iggy_ | o i c | 14:04 |
| trijntje | alienkid10, what do you want to see? | 14:04 |
| aeon-ltd | iggy_: open that file in a text editor (with sudo pre-appended) | 14:04 |
| tucemiux | jpag87a, have tried shutting down using the command line? sudo shutdown -h now | 14:04 |
| jpag87a | @tucemiux I already upgraded and had to go back to 9.10 because I had problems of all sorts with 10.04 | 14:04 |
| alienkid10 | ANYTHING during boot up | 14:04 |
| TiK | alienkid10: hm it is set to auto.. rebooting | 14:04 |
| alienkid10 | the splash screen or the detailed text | 14:04 |
| jpag87a | @tucemiux Haven't done that, I'll try | 14:04 |
| iggy_ | sudo /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf? | 14:05 |
| jpag87a | @tucemiux Thanks for the idea | 14:05 |
| brandon420 | ok. so. my computer is being slow as hell, but im only using like 47% of my cpu, and 81% of my ram.... ideas? | 14:05 |
| alienkid10 | I select kernel then blank untill right before | 14:05 |
| kk_hacker | but will the link have info on Ubuntu lucid? | 14:05 |
| alienkid10 | GDM | 14:05 |
| trijntje | alienkid10, put "verbose" for text and "quiet, splash" for the picture | 14:05 |
| tucemiux | jpag87a, you should also add yourself to the bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/290204 | 14:06 |
| aeon-ltd | iggy_: sudo (text editor) /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 14:06 |
| jpag87a | @brandon420 check on System Monitor what processes are eating up memory and cpu | 14:06 |
| alienkid10 | trijntje: quiet splash is alreeady there | 14:06 |
| iggy_ | thank u | 14:06 |
| basilis | hello | 14:06 |
| alienkid10 | I tried verbose and same result | 14:06 |
| aeon-ltd | brandon420: what spec pc? | 14:06 |
| basilis | why? | 14:06 |
| trijntje | alienkid10, where did you put it? | 14:06 |
| alienkid10 | that's why I think it's a module | 14:06 |
| alienkid10 | after everything | 14:06 |
| trijntje | in grub during boot? | 14:06 |
| brandon420 | aeon-ltd, 2.6ghz, 1gb ram, nvidia 8400gs | 14:07 |
| jpag87a | @tucemiux thanks for the info :D | 14:07 |
| aeon-ltd | brandon420: are you running compiz? | 14:07 |
| alienkid10 | quiet splash was already there so I replaced ot with verbose | 14:07 |
| alienkid10 | it* | 14:07 |
| brandon420 | yes | 14:07 |
| basilis | hey | 14:07 |
| aeon-ltd | brandon420: try disablinng it and see if it helps | 14:07 |
| trijntje | alienkid10, thats weird, in that case I dont know whats wrong, sorry | 14:08 |
| tucemiux | jpag87a, the bug is supposedly on a "Fix Released" status, so you might want to give the developers a hint that the bug is still alive and kicking, at least in your machine -- someone may guide you on how to fix the problem on your machine if you participate on the bug report | 14:08 |
| iggy_ | ok now that i m in the text editor im kindo of confused of what im supposed to write sudo (text editor) /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 14:08 |
| brandon420 | and "plugin-containe" is using 14.9% and xorg is using 14.7% of the cpu | 14:08 |
| Yerushalmi | So anybody know how I can have the volume on a panel without the little envelope icon thing? | 14:08 |
| iflema | iggy_ the STA driver in the repositories give you no joy? | 14:08 |
| iggy_ | Modify the blacklist to include the ‘b43′ and ’ssb’ drivers /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf (Add below the bcm43xx blacklist) | 14:08 |
| iggy_ | no joy | 14:08 |
| alienkid10 | trijntje: is there any USB module that may not be loaded during boot? | 14:08 |
| brandon420 | aeon-ltd, it does help a little bit, but not much, this is something recent | 14:08 |

| tucemiux | barberan, use netstat | 14:10 |

| mahioo | there are an convincing explain | 14:47 |
| brandon420 | aeon-ltd, well, could have, the only one i had was firebug | 14:47 |

| Jamess123 | All I am aiming to do is be able to boot vista when i need to without having to have Ubuntu as an option to boot as that require my external hard drive | 14:49 |
| mahioo | ^^! | 14:49 |
| erUSUL | bihari: i guess is a combo to swithch from utf8 to Latin-1 | 14:49 |
| abhijit | Jamess123, ohhhh. did you installed the ubuntu in your exteral hdd while your internal vista hdd connected? | 14:50 |
| mahioo | any one !!!!!!!! | 14:50 |
| Gnea | !anyone | 14:50 |
| Jamess123 | I did yes, | 14:50 |
| ubottu | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 14:50 |
| bazhang | mahioo, ask a question | 14:50 |
| mahioo | i ask | 14:50 |
| mahioo | the question is | 14:50 |
| Pici | !enter | 14:50 |
| ubottu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 14:50 |
| bazhang | mahioo, on one line | 14:50 |
| mahioo | can you tell me why ubuntu lucid requirement is hot !! | 14:50 |
| erUSUL | Jamess123: restore the windows bootloader. ##windows can help with that. basically you have to boot with the windows installcd and enter the recovery console. then use « fixmbr » command | 14:50 |
| bazhang | mahioo, what does that mean | 14:51 |
| Gnea | mahioo: hot?! | 14:51 |
| bihari | erUSUL> bihari: just accept default << how? | 14:51 |
| erUSUL | Jamess123: maybe you can run that command from the windows install too | 14:51 |
| alienkid10 | .away | 14:51 |
| rocket16 | mahioo: I think #ubuntu-offtopic is a better place to ask the question. | 14:51 |
| Yerushalmi | How do I get rid of the mail icon in the menu bar without losing the volume icon as well? Similarly, how do I get rid of the chat/status menu without losing the shutdown/logout menu? | 14:51 |
| erUSUL | bihari: hit tab untill you highlight ok. press enter | 14:51 |
| mahioo | hot it mean raise performance | 14:51 |

| Gnea | mahioo: because it uses gnome. | 14:51 |
| Jamess123 | Ok thanks | 14:52 |
| alienkid10 | I'll try rebooting with no params | 14:52 |
| mahioo | Gnea: i think that there are other distribution use gnome but with less requirement | 14:52 |
| whompapotamus | mahioo: Start by removing Nautilus and installing Nautilus Elementary | 14:53 |
| Gnea | mahioo: we don't care about those distributions, this channel is focused soley on Ubuntu. | 14:53 |
| matthiaskrgr_ | my ubuntu 10.4 is mote and I don't know how to fix it | 14:53 |
| sacarlson | sirlark: I'm not sure but I think you want postrouting | 14:53 |
| mahioo | Gnea: yes but just for compare | 14:53 |
| Gnea | mahioo: there is no compare, only Ubuntu. | 14:53 |
| whompapotamus | mahioo: You will grab a second or two performance boost | 14:53 |
| erUSUL | Jamess123: in the future if you install in a usb disk choose advanced partitioning or some such so you can decide where grub gets installed. you want it installed in the usb external disk | 14:53 |
| bazhang | mahioo, #ubuntu-offtopic please | 14:53 |
| brandon420 | heyyy! | 14:54 |
| mahioo | whompapotamus: do you mean that nautilus is need more performance | 14:54 |
| Gnea | mahioo: you may find xubuntu or lubuntu easier to use | 14:54 |
| Yerushalmi | How do I get rid of the mail icon in the menu bar without losing the volume icon as well? Similarly, how do I get rid of the chat/status menu without losing the shutdown/logout menu? | 14:54 |
| brandon420 | everyone that is still using firefox, try chrome, it runs OMG good! lol. | 14:54 |
| brandon420 | Yerushalmi, right click and hit remove | 14:55 |
| Gnea | brandon420: please try to remain on-topic. | 14:55 |
| mahioo | Gnea: i know this but i wonder why ubuntu need this requirement , so i want to know | 14:55 |
| whompapotamus | mahioo: Nautilus is bloated | 14:55 |
| areon | pls help i have some problem witch compilation | 14:55 |
| Yerushalmi | brandon420: Ahahaha I wish it were that easy, but it removes the entire panel (if it lets me do it at all, because of the idiotic lock they put on editing the UNE menu bar) | 14:55 |
| Pici | !ask | areon | 14:55 |
| ubottu | areon: 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. :-) | 14:55 |
| sacarlson | brandon420: I have had problems with firefox crash or shutdown when I look at youtube.com sometimes but chrome seemed to be able to watch the same thing with no problem. | 14:55 |
| areon | make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. | 14:56 |
| abhijit | !compile | areon | 14:56 |
| ubottu | areon: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 14:56 |
| mahioo | whompapotamus: ah so the pb in nautilus | 14:56 |
| Gnea | mahioo: I already told you: because it uses gnome. gnome is bloatware, it uses so many system library resources just to launch a single terminal application that does the same thing that xterm does, using less than 10. | 14:56 |
| matthiaskrgr_ | my ubuntu 10.4 is mote and I don't know how to fix it | 14:56 |
| bihari | erUSUL, http://img716.imageshack.us/i/snap2iu.png/ NOW Tthis one | 14:56 |
| areon | ubottu i do ./configure | 14:56 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 14:56 |
| brandon420 | sacarlson, i was having problems with it today, and i uninstalled it and install chrome, runs perfect. i hate to say it cause im a huge ff fan, but i do kinda like the layout | 14:57 |
| erUSUL | bihari: as before; if you do not know. accept defaults | 14:57 |
| areon | i compile program powersave but i learn compile | 14:57 |
| mahioo | Gnea: thank you for the idea | 14:57 |
| whompapotamus | mahioo: Not necessarily - probably have too many daemons up and running as well | 14:57 |
| Gnea | mahioo: if that doesn't make sense to you, then I suggest you do try another distribution, such as slackware, in order to learn why it is that some GUI setups are more memory intensive than others, but keep Ubuntu around because it can still be useful. | 14:58 |
| abhijit | areon, does ./configure give any error? | 14:58 |
| bihari | erUSUL, OK tab + enter | 14:58 |
| erUSUL | bihari: correct | 14:58 |
| areon | <abhijit> no errors | 14:58 |
| matthiaskrgr_ | my ubuntu 10.4 is mote and I don't know how to fix it | 14:58 |
| abhijit | areon, try all ./configure and make etc commands with sudo? | 14:58 |
| matthiaskrgr_ | *mute | 14:58 |
| Pici | abhijit: That shouldn't be needed. | 14:59 |
| mahioo | whompapotamus: such what !! | 14:59 |
| erUSUL | abhijit: very bad idea... | 14:59 |
| areon | <abhijit> noo :( | 14:59 |
| abhijit | what is meaning of mote , matthiaskrgr_ | 14:59 |
| Jamess123 | Hi everyone again | 14:59 |
| alienkid10 | sc | 14:59 |
| mahioo | Gnea: ok the info is come :) | 14:59 |
| shane2peru | I have a rtf document with all kinds of /par /u231? markup in it, is there any way to view that as a normal human readable document? | 14:59 |
| Gnea | matthiaskrgr_: click on the audio icon on the top bar, then click 'unmute' | 14:59 |
| abhijit | Pici, erUSUL ohhh. ok. actually in my case i need to so for some software and ofcourse their name I dont remember now. ;) | 14:59 |
| Pici | areon: What are you trying to compile? | 14:59 |
| erUSUL | shane2peru: open with a word procesor ? | 14:59 |
| abhijit | areon, see what Pici erUSUL said to me | 15:00 |
| Jamess123 | I have ubuntu on my external hard drive, and vista on my internal, whenever my computer boots up without the external hard drive, i get GRUB error 21, Please help | 15:00 |
| areon | pici i try compile powersave | 15:00 |
| erUSUL | abhijit: only mke install should run as sudo | 15:00 |
| billy_ | shane2peru: try open office | 15:00 |
| alienkid10 | sacarlson: iflema: I did as you said and nothing for a while then I saw something about running init-bottom newline done then GDM | 15:00 |
| brandon420 | Yerushalmi, that is how i did it, http://uppix.net/0/3/7/070156d50efc7318cf927365c1936.png | 15:00 |
| abhijit | erUSUL, okkk. | 15:00 |
| Pici | areon: Does that have a README or INSTALL file in it? | 15:00 |
| shane2peru | erUSUL, i tried OOo.o but, it left all the markup in there. | 15:00 |
| Gnea | Jamess123: plug the external hard drive in before you boot, problem solved. | 15:00 |
| areon | <abhijit> but now i have error checking for DBUS... configure: error: Package requirements (dbus-1 >= 0.30) were not met: | 15:00 |
| areon | No package 'dbus-1' found | 15:00 |
| areon | Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you | 15:00 |
| areon | installed software in a non-standard prefix. | 15:00 |
| areon | Alternatively, you may set the environment variables DBUS_CFLAGS | 15:00 |
| FloodBot1 | areon: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 15:00 |
| areon | and DBUS_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. | 15:00 |
| shane2peru | billy_, tried ooo, it just left the markup in there. | 15:00 |
| Yerushalmi | brandon420: What version do you have? I'm on 10.04. | 15:01 |
| elb0w | If I install KDE desktop on my system over apt-get what are the odds something breaks? | 15:01 |
| elb0w | currently gnome | 15:01 |
| iflema | alienkid10 did you do it in /etc/default/grub and an update-grub???? | 15:01 |
| Jamess123 | Gnea: I understand that but I have a laptop, and sometimes I just want to go on vista say downstairs without my hard drive. | 15:01 |
| sacarlson | alienkid10: well it boots I would be happy with that | 15:01 |
| erUSUL | shane2peru: weird. something wrong with the import process... you may try with a abiword | 15:01 |
| matthiaskrgr_ | I mean 'mute' in the sense of no sound/music comes out. I already rebootet, set master o 100% but nothing helps. mute box is not ticked | 15:01 |
| alienkid10 | iflema: yes | 15:01 |
| billy_ | shane2peru: open in oo and then save as and pick whatever you like | 15:01 |
| areon | afk | 15:01 |
| abhijit | areon, that measn you need the next version of library dbus after 0.30 | 15:01 |
| Gnea | Jamess123: the problem is that grub's configuration files are on the ubuntu drive, not the wintendo drive. have you considered wubi? | 15:01 |
| shane2peru | billy_, when I opened it, it left all the /par and stuff in there, so it really isn' | 15:01 |
| iflema | alienkid10 -splash -quiet and no vga=xxxx? | 15:02 |
| shane2peru | billy_, readable like that. | 15:02 |
| Jamess123 | what is wubi? :) | 15:02 |
| alienkid10 | sacarlson: yes but it was booting before too. I would just like to at least see the splash | 15:02 |
| alienkid10 | iflema: yes made sure | 15:02 |
| brandon420 | Yerushalmi, i thought i was, but i guess i didnt update, im on 9.10 | 15:02 |
| whompapotamus | mahioo: That all depends - cups, webmin, hal, etc. Don't know your configuration? Could be a video driver - the list for figuring it out is beyond the time I can spend with you - I think it was mentioned - but try a minimal distro (you may find your performance enhanced there?) | 15:02 |
| erUSUL | Jamess123: i already told you waht to do. | 15:02 |
| Gnea | !wubi | Jamess123 | 15:02 |
| ubottu | Jamess123: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. | 15:02 |
| alienkid10 | iflema: no splash quiet or quiet splash and no vga=xxx | 15:02 |
| Yerushalmi | *nod* 9.10 seems to have been more customizable. I'm somewhat regretting upgrading to 10. | 15:02 |
| Gnea | Jamess123: simply put, it allows you to install ubuntu without an external hard drive, and without messing up your windows installation :) | 15:02 |
| === GoldenAxe is now known as GoldenApe | ||
| iflema | alienkid10 are you using proprietary display drivers? | 15:03 |
| Jamess123 | Gnea: will this make ubuntu run slower than normal? | 15:03 |
| Gnea | Jamess123: absolutely not, in fact it should make it faster | 15:03 |
| billy_ | shane2peru: then i dont think it can be a proper rtf document - try this open a new document anf import the rtf document - it might give you some conversion options | 15:03 |
| alienkid10 | iflema: yes ATI but even on first boot this was happening | 15:03 |
| mahioo | whompapotamus: ok thank you for help | 15:04 |
| Jamess123 | Okay cool thanks | 15:04 |
| shane2peru | billy_, yeah, I will try that, thanks | 15:04 |
| GoldenApe | hi all, after reboting ubuntu 10.04 in virtual box under windwos 7, my netbeans installation dissaperas under Application --> programming, how can I retirive it back, or I need to install netbeans again? | 15:04 |
| dotnetted | Hey all - Can anyone here suggest a graphical desktop environment that would work best with a 50 inch screen? I've been using Gnome so far but just realized that it doesn't even have window tiling built in - that's enough to make me want to try other. Thanks for any info! | 15:04 |
| Gnea | Jamess123: it basically takes a chunk of HD space on the C: drive and turns it into a real-virtual drive for Ubuntu | 15:04 |
| dotnetted | (please point me to a more appropriate channel if needed) | 15:05 |
| abhijit | GoldenApe, right click on the ubuntu logo lef to menu Application then go to edit menu there you can add netbeans entry. if it there already then just select it | 15:05 |

| matthiaskrgr_ | Hello. My ubuntu 10.4 system is mute. I mean 'mute' in the sense of no sound/music comes out. I already rebootet, set master to 100% but nothing helps. mute box is not ticked. killing pulseaudio affects nothing, too. | 15:11 |
| barfster | and it took me to 8.10 | 15:11 |
| barfster | not 8.04 | 15:11 |
| sacarlson | DestinyAwaits: you should be able to drag the icons on the top bar if they are locked you can right mouse and unlock before you move them | 15:11 |
| Pici | wolfric_: 'export' itself looks like its in the posix set of manpages. | 15:11 |
| DestinyAwaits | ok | 15:11 |
| Gnea | matthiaskrgr_: do you have speakers plugged in? | 15:11 |
| areon | gnea: DBUS_GLIB... configure: error: Package requirements (dbus-glib-1 >= 0.30) were not met: | 15:11 |
| areon | No package 'dbus-glib-1' found | 15:11 |
| areon | Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you | 15:11 |
| areon | installed software in a non-standard prefix. | 15:11 |
| areon | Alternatively, you may set the environment variables DBUS_GLIB_CFLAGS | 15:11 |
| areon | and DBUS_GLIB_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. | 15:11 |
| areon | See the pkg-config man page for more details. | 15:11 |
| GoldenApe | abhijit --> ok, how do I found the right command ( I feel pretty silly right now :P) | 15:11 |
| matthiaskrgr_ | Gnea: I have a notebook with built in speakers | 15:11 |

| Pici | areon: Please use a pastebin, don't paste text in this channel. ( http://paste.ubuntu.com ) | 15:12 |
| abhijit | GoldenApe, you can confirm the command 'netbeans' from terminal | 15:12 |
| wolfric_ | pici: so how do i get it | 15:12 |
| Gnea | areon: if you're going to insist upon spamming the channel, then please, utilize pastebin or leave. | 15:12 |

| ubottu | mhue: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 15:13 |
| Gnea | areon: I believe you were informed once before, therefore it's not a mitake. | 15:13 |

| barfster | It’s a mess somehow | 15:14 |
| jmknsd | I am sshed into the machine I am on now from home, which is behind a router and firewall. I am wondering if it is possible to use this to SSH into my home machine. | 15:14 |
| GoldenApe | abhijit --> ok, (you know it will come) how do I confirm the command 'netbeans' from terminal? | 15:14 |
| barfster | I had 7.10, tried to go to 8.04LTS, but it took me to 8.10 | 15:14 |
| |Dreams| | jmknsd, yes if you forward ports | 15:14 |
| mhue | abhitt, ubottu: thanks | 15:14 |
| wolfric_ | pici: thanks :) are there any other man pages i might not have by default? | 15:14 |
| barfster | Then I tried to do the upgrade to 8.04 again, and it looks like it install 8.10 several times | 15:15 |
| abhijit | GoldenApe, first open your termianl from application>accessory>termial then type 'netbeans' if netbean program runs then this is valid command otherwise try 'netbean' | 15:15 |
| qUaNtiC_ | hi i just upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 it went all ok but then when it rebooted the system something happened: the pc won't boot any more, it tries, turns on the fan and everything, seems like its booting but then it suddenly shuts down again, 2 secs dead and it tries again, and so on. what happened? | 15:15 |
| Pici | wolfric_: Nope, that should cover everything. | 15:15 |
| jmknsd | |Dreams|: I don't have access to the routers port forwarding from here | 15:15 |
| erUSUL | barfster: maybe you got grub2 installed ? | 15:15 |
| |Dreams| | jmknsd, no then unless your firewall is rubbish | 15:15 |
| ThunderLoki_ | I have a major issue with my computer | 15:16 |
| DestinyAwaits | sacarlson: Thanks. but do i have to lock them individually | 15:16 |
| wolfric_ | pici: many thanks | 15:16 |
| erUSUL | barfster: that's why menu.lst got not upgraded ... | 15:16 |
| abhijit | GoldenApe, 'netbeans' is the right command. i just checked | 15:16 |
| GoldenApe | abhijit --> none of them worked, again could be I need to allocate more HD space for ubuntu, and it's uninstalled netbeans automaticly after reboting? | 15:16 |
| jmknsd | |Dreams|: it is =/, Thought I would ask though | 15:16 |
| sacarlson | DestinyAwaits: yes I believe so | 15:16 |
| |Dreams| | unless u can ssh into your router | 15:16 |
| DestinyAwaits | ok | 15:16 |
| abhijit | GoldenApe, you said that your netbeans entry is missing in applications menu , right? | 15:16 |
| adminewb | is it indication of anything that the amd64 installation and amd64 liveCD image both lockup the same way during boot? | 15:17 |
| ThunderLoki_ | Yesterday, I tried to delete my ubuntu partition to either switch distros or to move to an earlier version of ubuntu (I was booted into windows 7) | 15:17 |

| GoldenApe | abhijit --> yes, and yesterday when I was using netbeans after installed it, it was in application --> programming | 15:17 |

| rainrain | looking for freeware text editor with ftp | 16:45 |
| schweegi | sacarlson: it's already installed | 16:45 |
| GoldenApe | erUSUL --> I found it, it was in even deeper folder :P, but it's worked, hope this time it won't dissaper from menu :P | 16:45 |
| GoldenApe | thanks all for the help | 16:45 |
| CT1 | cousteau: 1.1.42 is it certainly a wine issue? or does ubuntu general think I'm 'middle-clicking' when I left + right click? | 16:45 |
| cousteau | adamramadhan: let me see if I remember | 16:45 |
| adamramadhan | cousteau: oh yes please! | 16:45 |
| sacarlson | schweegi: well you mispelled that might be the problem it's alsamixer | 16:45 |
| cousteau | CT1: try leftrightclicking somewhere else, maybe you have "Emulate 3rd button" on | 16:46 |
| jediknight304 | rainrain: yea I have, that was ment for aaron__ | 16:46 |
| cousteau | or go to Preferences > Mouse and see if it's selected | 16:46 |
| erUSUL | GoldenApe: no problem | 16:46 |

| adamramadhan | cousteau: what menu ? | 16:47 |
| adamramadhan | btw if anyone miss the link http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FJH0hYZmVtc/TF6qOnVmPqI/AAAAAAAAJNk/Kd6pl0S_ZQA/s1600/Screenshot-dark.png | 16:47 |
| CT1 | cousteau: not being a hardcore ubuntu user, I don't know what a middle click means in general terms. Give me an example and I can try if left+right does the same as middle... thanks :) | 16:47 |
| adamramadhan | im finding whats mod that add edit file etc at the top menu :( | 16:48 |
| cousteau | adamramadhan: gnome2-globalmenu | 16:48 |
| cousteau | look for it, I think it's not in repositories | 16:48 |
| adamramadhan | cousteau: desktop ? | 16:48 |
| cousteau | adamramadhan: it's a program you have to install | 16:49 |
| adamramadhan | oh i see :| | 16:49 |
| cousteau | and it doesn't work with all apps, for example it fails with firefox | 16:49 |
| cousteau | (actually, it just keeps the upper panel empty and puts the menu on the window as it would normally do) | 16:50 |
| adamramadhan | cousteau, its not global menu , i found the link that someone good pm me | 16:50 |
| adamramadhan | http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/05/ubuntu-1010-application-menu-available.html | 16:50 |
| cousteau | it was called globalmenu last time, IIRC | 16:51 |
| adamramadhan | oh yeah i forgot :D | 16:51 |
| CT1 | cousteau: I can copy your reply and open gedit, pressing left+right click pastes the text, as does middle click. So I assume (correct me if I'm wrong) that it's not a wine issue, but goes further down the conceptual layers. Where though? ubuntu and gnome? futher down to xorg or is a kernel (module?) that mixes the two distinct mouse events as one event? | 16:52 |
| cousteau | CT1: then disable "Emulate three button mouse" on the mouse preferences | 16:53 |
| bfrederi | How do you set the PYTHONPATH for the root user only? | 16:53 |
| CT1 | cousteau: Seriously!? Please tell me it's that simple! Where is that option? :) :) | 16:53 |
| cousteau | CT1: well, I actually don't know if it's there | 16:54 |
| cousteau | if it is, it will be at System > Preferences > Mouse | 16:54 |
| bfrederi | I need to use sudo to allow my script to read from the /var/log/apache2/access.log file. | 16:54 |
| cousteau | very useful for notebooks, but not with 3-button mice | 16:54 |
| b14ck | Is there a way to force aptitude to say 'yes' to any questions? | 16:55 |
| === Richard is now known as Guest27434 | ||
| b14ck | So that if I do aptitude install or update, it'll just auto-answer yes for me? | 16:55 |
| sudosudo | I'd like to know: why do Debian latest release's repositorie is so outdated when it comes to applications such as aMsn or VideoLan? Is it that debian goes several steps behind where ubuntu goes? | 16:55 |
| b14ck | sudosudo, ubuntu is based on debian | 16:55 |
| b14ck | the ubuntu team aggresively updates packages, etc | 16:56 |
| b14ck | whereas the debian team doesn't have as many package maintainers (it seems) | 16:56 |
| xlost | helo | 16:56 |
| Pici | sudosudo: Ubuntu is synced from debian unstable for most packages (although lucid was synced from stable). | 16:56 |
| sudosudo | b14ck: I know, but I don't know why the Debian team doesn't update packages in their current release | 16:56 |
| xlost | }noooo | 16:56 |
| sudosudo | what happens if I install an application from one repositorie in a different version? | 16:57 |
| reo_ | sudosudo, what is the latest debian release you using. | 16:57 |
| sudosudo | reo_: the latest stable Debian release is 5.05 | 16:57 |
| Pici | sudosudo: We don't support debian here, Their channel is #debian | 16:57 |
| iceroot | sudosudo: you mean e.g. a hardy package on lucid? | 16:58 |
| cousteau | b14ck: aptitude -y IIRC | 16:58 |
| reo_ | see the stable version is kinda old. if you use testing debian you will get newer packages which are much more updated like ubuntu | 16:58 |
| sudosudo | Pici: the fact that I ask about differences between Debian and Ubuntu - some of which apply to Linux in general - doesn't mean I am asking for Debian support. Therefore I think my questions are "legit" and not out of sync with the channel's topic | 16:58 |
| CT1 | cousteau: I'm a reasonably abled "googler" but the "Where" component is highly relevant and confusing. Is it gnome? xorg? or the kernel/hal...? I'm no expert on linux conceptual hardware abstraction and don't know where to start looking. Without learning c/c++ and sifting through the kernel, xorg source etc.... is there no general picture of how hardware events are passed up that abstract layer and how each layer deals with it? I'd hate to spe | 16:58 |
| sudosudo | iceroot: yeah, for instance, or vice-versa | 16:58 |
| Pici | sudosudo: I thought you were asking about installing packages in different versions of debian, sorry. | 16:59 |
| cousteau | CT1: not sure, actually, I thought gnome | 16:59 |
| cousteau | but... google "lucid" and you're done | 16:59 |
| neeedhelp | heey i could really use some help to get internet for ubuntu see pucture please and tell me whats wrong http://yfrog.com/11screenshotfjp | 16:59 |
| sudosudo | Pici: no, in fact, I downloaded the debian DVDs only in order to be able to have physical packages to install in Ubuntu computers that cannot go online | 16:59 |
| arjun | hi I see only boxes for non english text, after I tried to install local package of libpango. I reverted to the lucid packages, restored gnome, gdm. Still I only see boxes , in place of indic(Telugu ) texts. Any suggestions to restore my unicode font display capability | 17:00 |
| CT1 | cousteau: No success so far but your time and feedback are much appreciated. Thankyou. Hopefully someone that logs in in a few hours may know. Thanks again for your time | 17:01 |
| Pici | sudosudo: You should be careful when installing debian packages in Ubuntu, we don't necessarily use the same package names as them and you may break your system with dependency issues. | 17:02 |

| Error404NotFound | i am unable to build (tex->dvi->ps->pdf) in texmaker, i get error messages regarding fonts which are also stored as missfont.log : http://pastebin.com/Ef4JPPa9 | 17:03 |
| Eqlzer | bluesKaj, amarok is the only one that organizes? | 17:03 |
| BluesKaj | Eqlzer, dunno | 17:04 |
| sudosudo | Pici: why should I? I mean, if I use "dpkg -f packagename.deb" in order to see what the dependencies are and then I go about installing the deps manually with "dpkg -i packagename.deb", provided that the version I use is equal or higher than that which is stated in the "Depends:" field... why should there be a problem? As far as I know those packets and those in the ubuntu repositories should be identical (provided they are the same | 17:04 |

| Ryan_ | Could anyone give me a hand? I installed to my external drive but it doesn't show up in the boot menu. Running from Live CD right now. | 17:06 |
| GHH | CT1, i was installed windows but when i installed ubuntu then it not giving me any option? | 17:06 |
| Yadira | a live flas does not whow on any menu | 17:06 |
| Yadira | just boot like a normal linux | 17:07 |
| purvesh | !keyboard layout | purvesh | 17:07 |
| Pici | sudosudo: Because Ubuntu might have a package with a different name than what debian does that provides the same thing, and you may already have that installed. | 17:07 |
| Oer | GHH press Left SHift during BOOT, to enter Grub menu ? | 17:07 |
| BluesKaj | Ryan_, check nautilus, places | 17:07 |
| Yadira | what do u use to install that linux on flash drive | 17:07 |
| bihari | erUSUL: i stil have a problem buddy | 17:08 |
| Ryan_ | nautilus? and I just used a USB created following instructions on the ubuntu site | 17:08 |
| bihari | what to do i am pis off | 17:08 |
| cousteau | CT1: it can be done, at least it's disabled in my Jaunty | 17:08 |
| GHH | CT1, perhaps something going wrong with selecting partion option | 17:08 |
| BluesKaj | !usb | Yadira | 17:08 |

| mugwort13 | does anyone know of anyone who has gotten a Samsung Go netbook to connect to the AT&T 3g service using fedora? | 17:08 |
| cousteau | (I'm still talking about the middle-click emulation) | 17:08 |
| erUSUL | bihari: still not all packages were upgraded ? | 17:08 |
| Yadira | i have a multy boot flash drive i dont need info about flash drives | 17:08 |
| bihari | erUSUL: no sir | 17:09 |
| Yadira | Ryan_, go to pendrivelinux | 17:09 |
| erUSUL | bihari: dist-upgrade did not help ? | 17:09 |
| Yadira | thay have multyboot installer for usb | 17:09 |
| sudosudo | Pici: Excuse me for trying your patience, but I still don't understand it (probably because of semantics). Let me explain: if I get vlc 1.0 from karmic repositories and if I get vlc 1.0 from a Debian DVD, provided that they both are 1.0, they should contain exactly the same, am I correct? (let's clarify this before moving on) | 17:09 |
| GHH | CT1, just coming back after 160 second | 17:09 |
| Ryan_ | another question, if I get it running, will it be significantly slower than installing it on my internal HDD? | 17:09 |
| Yadira | or a universal installer for any linux distro to put on usb | 17:10 |
| bihari | erUSUL: sudo dist-upgrade | 17:10 |
| bihari | this one | 17:10 |
| Yadira | it will | 17:10 |
| erUSUL | bihari: sudo aptitude dist-upgrade | 17:10 |
| Yadira | because is external | 17:10 |
| BluesKaj | Ryan_, your outboard should be listed in nautilus /places as a drive | 17:10 |
| Yadira | but work well | 17:10 |
| bihari | let me try again | 17:10 |
| matthias_ | hello. I c | 17:11 |
| CT1 | GHH: Being no expert, I assume you're in the same situation as me.. (installed ubuntu not long ago, but had xp for a while) if that's the case I can help you. Given that 1st you have an xp CD, secondly you have nothing on your ubuntu partition that you don't mind loosing. To get back into windows 1st you need the cd (anyone please jump in for a better solution) we're going to "fix" xp booting, then check partitions etc, then reinstall ubuntu.. | 17:11 |
| aaron__ | ryan, does your computer support booting from usb? older computers bios do not. | 17:11 |
| Yadira | if u use a multiboot wont be like a installed on usb,,it will always be like a live cd..a fresh use every time | 17:11 |
| runa | heyas. for ivman to function, do I need any kind of hal daemon running? it says it's connected to dbus and everything | 17:12 |
| Ryan_ | yeah im running from a USB boot right now | 17:12 |
| aaron__ | ohh then what's the problem? | 17:12 |
| BluesKaj | Ryan_, usb devices are slower , whether that's significant is a matter for your discretion | 17:12 |
| Ryan_ | this is just the live CD boot, not a proper install | 17:12 |
| matthias_ | hello, I cannot hear anything from my notebook. as far as I remembered, I played around with a microphone and now I can play games/music watch movies but no sound is coming out of the build in speakers. | 17:12 |
| Yadira | if u installe on usb u can customized and store settings | 17:12 |
| Yadira | but when u install from that usb | 17:12 |
| Yadira | it will be factory defaults on installation | 17:13 |
| Ryan_ | if I install ubuntu on a small partition on my internal, I then can't use my windows partition to store all my files can I? | 17:13 |

| GHH | CT1, Let me say detail | 17:15 |
| CT1 | GHH: Please! | 17:15 |
| BluesKaj | Pici, don't think he's paying attn :) | 17:16 |
| Pici | sudosudo: In fact, vlc requires a specific version of vlc-nox, and other pacakges that depend on vlc-nox might require that same version, not the one that you installed with debian. We don't support using packages from Debian on Ubuntu | 17:16 |
| Pici | BluesKaj: Probably :( | 17:16 |
| sudosudo | sudosudo: if you invoke "dpkg -f packagename.deb", which reads the header with the description and the dependencies, on both the VLC 1.0 that you downloaded from a karmic repositorie and the VLC 1.0 that you downloaded from a Debian repositorie, are you telling me that they are not going to output exactly the same string? | 17:16 |
| Ryan_ | Yadira, is it possible to have ubuntu installed on a small partition and have it just use my windows partition for storing stuff, like if I download things and such. So the ubuntu partition is just the OS? I thought the filesystems were different and it didn't like that. | 17:17 |
| GHH | CT1, I was installed windows and i try to install ubuntu. when it come to partition then i select first option(resizing). After installed ubuntu windows not opening | 17:17 |
| Pici | sudosudo: Thats correct. See the difference between http://packages.debian.org/lenny/vlc and http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/vlc for instance. | 17:18 |
| Pici | sudosudo: We don't just blindly sync things from Debian, often there are patches and changes made. | 17:18 |
| Spark | hi, svn has started using the gnome keyring, how do i make it stop | 17:18 |
| Spark | i'm not even using gnome | 17:18 |
| BluesKaj | Ryan_, that is possible , youwill ahve access to windows /ntfs drive from ubuntu , but why ? | 17:19 |
| Yadira | Ryan_, yes u can,,also u can search windows partitions too with no problems in a multipanel computer browser for fast moving around stuff | 17:19 |
| Yadira | it will mount on desktop for fast seaching | 17:19 |
| GHH | CT1, And it was only two partition C drive and blank space for ubuntu and i select blank space to formate(ext3) but windows need 8 mb free space | 17:19 |
| Ryan_ | BluesKaj: Because I don't want to have my documents and things split across 2 partitions. | 17:19 |
| === aliendude3500 is now known as aliendude5300 | ||
| BluesKaj | Ryan_, ?? you will need 2 partitions anyway | 17:20 |
| BluesKaj | on the same drive , Ryan_ ? | 17:20 |
| Ryan_ | BluesKaj: Yeah, but I want the ubuntu one to be small, since my internal drive isn't huge I want to keep most of the space for windows. I'm on a laptop so I've only got 160gb on the internal, and only 60gb free atm | 17:21 |
| CT1 | GHH: I'll be back soon, but for now... if you have a winXP cd, then boot from it, select repair and enter your password (if any) then type fixboot then fixmbr (type "/?" after each of those to see what they do. If they complete ok, you can start again with ubuntu installation. | 17:21 |
| Yadira | Ryan_, install them side by side to decide at boot,,u can also decide wich one u want to be dafault boot | 17:21 |
| Yadira | and store all on windows partition | 17:21 |
| BluesKaj | Ryan_, 6G will enuff for ubuntu | 17:21 |

| EdwardL | Hello. I've got a problem installing Ubuntu 10.04. When installing, it reaches 41% then gives me an error: [Errno 5] Input/output error. | 17:23 |
| sudosudo | Pici: the example is not valid, note that in the debian website Vlc's version is "Package: vlc (0.8.6.h-4+lenny2.3 and others)", whereas in the karmic's site it is "vlc (1.0.2-1ubuntu2)". They are different versions: one is 0.8.6 while the other is 1.0.2), therefore it's not a valid example. Yeah, they are going to have different dependencies, it's just natural, since they are different versions. However, upon execution of "dpkg -i" | 17:23 |
| Ryan_ | so I just give ubuntu a 6gb partition and I'm sorted | 17:23 |
| Krishnandu | EdwardL, Check the media and RAM | 17:23 |

| Ryan_ | Yadira: How easy is it to delete the partition and reclaim the space if I decide not to keep ubuntu? | 17:27 |
| sacarlson | sayby: i guess the site is down or you typoed something in the source.list | 17:27 |

| Austad | what might be the problem? | 18:10 |
| oCean_ | !webmin | Austad | 18:10 |
| ubottu | Austad: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 18:10 |
| pwnedulongtime | ping gr.archive.ubuntu.com | 18:10 |

| ToStItOs | Now if I can only find someone that knows about usbmodeswitching | 18:14 |
| Pici | BluesKaj: Um. I'd do an md5sum against the ISO file. I don't know if the md5sum of the usb device would work properly as there are other changes that are written to the device for it to boot etc. | 18:14 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 18:17 |

I need help please. a little while ago i used a command to restart the Xorg in a terminal but when I restarted my laptop there was an error message saying that the xorg could not load and it was using low level graphics. then i restarted it again but now my ubuntu does not boot into the gui, it just sits on the splash screen. is there some kind of system repair or recovery? | 18:18 |
| hiku | EdwardL: why the f:\? should just be, md5sum nameof.iso | 18:18 |
| git__ | thanks hiku, i hope there is a gui | 18:18 |
| erUSUL | reggi: recovery mode has a repair X option | 18:18 |

| EdwardL | hiku: md5sums of iso is one thing. How do I know if the USB stick is different from the iso in any way? | 18:19 |
| hiku | EdwardL: well, the iso you have, was that burning to the usb stick? | 18:20 |
| hiku | burned* | 18:20 |
| EdwardL | hiku: I think so. I used Universal USB Installer to put the iso onto the stick in order to install ubuntu onto a computer. | 18:20 |
| hiku | EdwardL: ok, then the md5sum from that iso should match up with the md5sum on the ubuntu website for that iso version, which would then mean that if all is well, the usb stick should be ok. | 18:21 |

| CT1 | Raydiation: Play about with the settings. You'll get a general idea of what frequencies "just don't work" in your room. Then you start to analyse the source of the audio. 1st you need to hear what frequencies need reducing in your room to prevent vibrations/distortion. move from there :) | 18:29 |

| josue | como entro en el chat | 18:51 |
| coz_ | oddy, yes that link on #grub topic works ... I have dont it several times already | 18:51 |

| coz_ | tsziklay, do you have a link for that application? | 18:55 |

| tsziklay | coz_ : you mean a link for firefox or a link for selenium? | 18:56 |
| lov255 | So to make it root, my mount point should say / ??? | 18:56 |
| coz_ | tsziklay, Selenium | 18:56 |

| gasull | ThomasB2k: Why not trying an upgrade and, if it fails, do a clean install? | 19:06 |
| abhijit | TheRampantFurry, go for it!!! :D | 19:06 |
| ThomasB2k | Okay, good idea gasull | 19:07 |
| old-laptop | hey guys, how do i know if im running xubuntu 10.04 or xubuntu 9.10?? | 19:07 |
| ChogyDan | doggyslobber: someone said it earlier, gnome-session-properties | 19:07 |
| ThomasB2k | TheRampantFurry, Ubuntu is very easy to install and the installer has an option to completely wipe your harddrive and just use Ubuntu. | 19:07 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: oh, I see. they are in .ini files. weird. did you upgrade php recently? | 19:07 |
| Pici | old-laptop: on a terminal: lsb_release -a | 19:07 |
| abhijit | old-laptop, lsb_release -a | 19:07 |
| abhijit | :( | 19:07 |
| old-laptop | ok, wait a sec... | 19:07 |

| CT1 | thune3: So it goes as deep as X? no nice ("Hey I have 2 buttons, can I click this checkbox to make them == middle click?", "Are you sure you want to do this?, it will seriously effect gaming.." "Yes/No" | 19:08 |
| old-laptop | ok xubuntu 10.04 | 19:08 |
| gasull | I have a lot of 3rd-party repos. Should I disable them before an 9.10-to-10.04 upgrade? Or the Update Manager takes care of that? | 19:08 |
| Xase | Hello, might I receive some help with Overscan? | 19:08 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: did you look at the line numbers in the .ini files to see what it was complaining about? | 19:08 |
| Xase | U[pdate manager disables third party repos. | 19:08 |
| old-laptop | the real version is 10.04 but my help button in the top bar says xubuntu 9.10 | 19:09 |
| Xase | Though however, my repos were left unusable after upgrading to Maverick Meerkat. | 19:09 |
| abhijit | old-laptop, ask in #xubuntu | 19:09 |
| Xase | Just default stuff... add to readd. | 19:09 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: also, it looks like they are happening during a restart. they might just be warnings. are you getting errors in your app? | 19:09 |
| old-laptop | wherew is that? | 19:09 |
| old-laptop | im totally new | 19:10 |
| abhijit | old-laptop, type /j #xubuntu | 19:10 |
| abhijit | old-laptop, and you will be there then ask there :) | 19:10 |
| old-laptop | like in the chat? | 19:10 |
| Jigal | ascott_tainer, they are just some config files for pachages like iamp ming imagick and idn | 19:10 |
| abhijit | old-laptop, yes here only type in thsi text box only | 19:10 |
| Jigal | ascott_tainer, oh dont ask about it | 19:10 |
| Jigal | ascott_tainer, have been busy for two weeks debugging mij app | 19:11 |
| bobo123 | isn't xubuntu quite resource hungry these days? I assume lubuntu is the new light ubuntu, right? | 19:11 |
| doggyslobber | thanks all! | 19:11 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: ah, I see. hmmm. was it working before, or is this a new install? | 19:11 |

| bluebaron | what's the best way to get a Linux desktop experience in Windows 7? | 19:12 |
| Xase | So yeah... Intel 4500MHD, Overscan using Panasonic 42 inch 1080p through HDMI. Laptop has broken screen, have TV set to be only output. Have Xorg.conf, -NO- Modes listed for any color depth, and am unsure of how to attain a proper mode as I don't have the manual, and Google curses me out telling me this is only a 720p tv which is INCORRECT, because I'm rendering in 1080p right now with overscan, 720p yields the same, -and- my ps3 uses the | 19:12 |
| Xase | 1080p so the internet fails me. | 19:12 |
| JHoglund | I'm on a 10.4 Ubuntu with kernel 2.6.32, I need to apply a kernel patch to enable my 3G modem. I've found a .diff-file contaning C (C++?) code. How risky is this? How much can I screw up, given that I've never compiled a kernel before? | 19:12 |
| Xase | Bluebaron, install Cygwin, or use the KDE installer for windows. | 19:12 |

| j800r | hey, i'm having a problem with my webcam. when i first plug it in and run cheese it looks flawless, but as soon as i run kopete and settings it messes the picture up for both kopete AND Cheese :\ | 19:13 |

| grendal_prime | how the hell do you mount a cdrom now on server? | 19:13 |
| Xase | Oh so I was right :D | 19:13 |
| gasull | Xase: thanks. I'll copy my /etc/apt/sources | 19:13 |
| jasmith | greetings | 19:13 |
| grendal_prime | there is no fstab entry created for it and there is a cdrom on the root of the filesystem | 19:13 |
| Xase | Gasull, yeah it's the best bet imo. | 19:13 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-47562.html | 19:13 |
| tim__ | how do I change sessions without using my mouse? normal log on screen... another question, How do I Auto mount a partition every time a boot into Ubuntu 10.04 | 19:13 |
| CT1 | thune3: Ubuntu support is great here. Many people available to give step-by-step instructions. For specifics, should I try wine, wow or some gamers irc? be it distribution in-specific, someone may have answers... any idea of where to ask? I've tried googling with no luck... | 19:14 |
| Xase | Whish I had, because now I have to add 15 extra repos back... which means finding them again. | 19:14 |
| jasmith | exit | 19:14 |
| ChogyDan | JHoglund: have you tried a later kernel? That would be easier than compiling the kernel yourself... | 19:14 |
| Jigal | ascott_tainer, have tried that post but it my system doesnt know the command envvars | 19:14 |
| abhijit | bye all! :) | 19:15 |
| JHoglund | ChogyDan: No, I have not. I guessed that Ubuntu automaticly updates the kernel and that the newer kernle isn't ready for Ubuntu yet | 19:15 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: try a locate envvars | 19:15 |
| ascott_tainer | or apt-cache search envvars | 19:15 |
| Krishnandu | Hey friends, how to get more like that desktop files page of KDE?? What is it called?? | 19:15 |
| Xase | JHoglund, there's always some sort of testing kernel, that even though it's due for say Meerkat, can be used in older versions of ubuntu. | 19:15 |
| Jigal | ascott_tainer, ./etc/apache2/envvars && httpd -t command not found envvars is in /etc/apache2/envvars | 19:16 |
| Xase | I used to have the 8.10 kernel -only- on my 7.04 install, because anything after 7.04 wouldn't install for some reason, so I just kept 7.04 and updated the kernel. | 19:16 |
| EddieV113 | is it necessary to install a firewall on a home ubuntu installation? If so which one is good im using GNOME? thanks | 19:16 |
| ChogyDan | JHoglund: that's true, Im using the next kernel ok myself | 19:16 |
| Xase | EddieV113, UFW? Wanna say firestarter for some reason. | 19:17 |
| ChogyDan | !kernel | JHoglund | 19:17 |
| ubottu | JHoglund: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 19:17 |
| Xase | It's always good to have some sort of intermediary protection EddieV113, no matter how secure an operating system is. | 19:17 |
| CT1 | One last attempt at this question. With the hope that someone who knows is online. How can I have L+R click on my mouse NOT == middle click? | 19:18 |
| grendal_prime | anyone on the cdrom mount issue? | 19:18 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: it looks like envvars is just some variables -- not an executable script -- try running "source /etc/httpd/envvars", then start restart apache again | 19:18 |
| Xase | CT1 | 19:18 |
| filipe_ | nobody how to work logwatch to generate report from other log that is for my pc? | 19:18 |
| grendal_prime | seems strange that you can just mount /dev/cdrom | 19:18 |
| Xase | Go to mouse settings. | 19:18 |
| Xase | There should be an emulate middle click option. | 19:18 |
| Xase | Turn it off. | 19:18 |
| Jigal | ascott_tainer, from a su terminal it works. Just now it complains about no commnad 'httpd' found | 19:18 |
| thune3 | CT1: I gave you an answer. Something to try with a couple commands and a way to test. Did that not work? | 19:18 |
| Slart | !firewall | EddieV113 | 19:19 |
| ubottu | EddieV113: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 19:19 |
| TheRampantFurry | So what is the difference between ubuntu and other linux...stuff | 19:19 |
| tim__ | how do I change sessions without using my mouse? normal log on screen... another question, How do I Auto mount a partition every time a boot into Ubuntu 10.04 | 19:19 |
| Xase | TheRampantFurry, It is geared to those unfamiliar, or those looking for a simple install and go procedure. | 19:19 |
| JHoglund | ubottu, ChogyDan, Xase: The reason to why I'm asking is that I've got a Lenovo laptop with a built-in Gobi 2000 3G modem. Since there's no official Linux drivers, one has to use a program called "gobiloader" to load firmware onto the 3G modem, the author of gobiloader says that kernel patching is needed for 2.6.32 or later. | 19:19 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 19:19 |
| JHoglund | ubottu: ChogyDan Xase: If I, instead of patching the kernel myself, download a new kernel. How can I determine if the patches are present in the kernel? | 19:20 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 19:20 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: try running "/etc/init.d/apache2 restart" | 19:20 |
| JHoglund | ubottu: Oh, sorry :) | 19:20 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 19:20 |
| Xase | JHoglund, I see, Hmm Lemme do some research. | 19:20 |
| sudosudo | I want to add a "deb file:/" entry to my sources.list. However, the problem is that there are spaces in the path, how would I reference these so that apt-get can understand them? So far, I've tried different methods like quotation marks, but apt-get insists on truncating the spaces | 19:20 |
| EddieV113 | thanks for the responses im getting firestarter now | 19:20 |
| Jigal | ascott_tainer, it restarted | 19:20 |
| JHoglund | Xase: Have a look here: http://www.codon.org.uk/~mjg59/gobi_loader/ | 19:20 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: is the error still in the logs? | 19:20 |
| ChogyDan | JHoglund: I don't know, but the links I gave you earlier should tell you how to compile it. You may also want to google for your laptop and ubuntu to see if someone has done it before | 19:21 |
| Jigal | ascott_tainer, yep but i still als have the httpd error | 19:21 |
| Xase | JHoglund, did you check here for information? http://bit.ly/aJvEeg | 19:21 |
| annie | Hello again room. How might I be able to make the ssh command an application? I would like to reduce the whole ssh command to an icon that you double click... is that possible? | 19:22 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: this seems like a bug in the upgrade process. something having to do with an apache config. I haven't seen that envvars file before (I use older apache), but maybe in the upgrade, it didn't get picked up correctly. Might want to file this with the ubuntu developers. | 19:22 |
| JHoglund | Xase: No, I'll have a look, thanks! | 19:22 |
| maco | annie: right click desktop -> create new launcher | 19:22 |
| maco | annie: put the command you want into there | 19:22 |
| Xase | It's just a bug report, but there may be some info there on how to get it for now, or maybe an ETA for a fix. | 19:22 |
| annie | maco: Awesome... Thanks | 19:22 |
| Slart | annie: create a launcher that runs either gnome-terminal or bash.. both support switches for specifying a command | 19:22 |
| maco | annie: but itll only work if you have ssh keys setup cuz otherwise you need to put in password | 19:23 |
| EddieV113 | test | 19:23 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: you can also "check" your configs with "apache2ctl -t" | 19:23 |
| blinkyb | i've just downloaded system indicator packages for my system, now how can i use them? "activate them" | 19:23 |
| regius | Hi is it possible to broadcast for dhcp on a other interface? | 19:23 |
| annie | maco: cool... the tunnel is set with keys. So I should be good | 19:23 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: actually, that's what the httpd -t is supposed to do: check config files, but httpd binary is no longer available, use apache2ctl in place of it. | 19:23 |
| regius | Like dhclient eth0 on eth1 :-)? | 19:23 |

| Xase | Fix appears released in maveric JHoglund | 19:25 |
| Xase | I'm using maverick myself, but don't havek said 3g modem to let you know if it works personally :( | 19:25 |
| Jigal | ascott_tainer, apache2ctl says just Syntax OK | 19:25 |
| regius | ilovefairuz: I'm trying to build a dhcp relay | 19:25 |
| check3r | when i right click an .avi it shows "Open with VLC", how to remove that? | 19:25 |
| thune3 | check3r: the easiest way is to find a file of the desired type in nautilus, right click and select properties. In the "open with" tab you can add programs and set default. | 19:26 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: can you run a test php script at the command line and it succeeds? | 19:26 |
| check3r | ty | 19:26 |
| annie | gonna test my ssh launcher... brb | 19:26 |
| Xase | Also to be more specific JHoglund https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/linux-backports-modules-2.6.32 says a fix has been commited to the backports modules in lucid | 19:26 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: to test php, do something like: echo "<? phpinfo() ?>" > info.php | 19:27 |
| ascott_tainer | Jigal: then: php info.php | 19:27 |
| regius | internet <--ip from ISP> server <ip from ISP- - ip from ISP> home router <-> | 19:27 |
| Jigal | ascott_tainer, works it shows me the output of php.ini | 19:28 |

| daniel | UNA PIJA | 19:28 |

| LoRez | grzegorz: please, no ad-hom attacks in here | 19:48 |
| grzegorz | stk-1160 | 19:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | anodesni, the export part is really only required if you need to calibrate your joystick (which as required for my N64 controller to work properly) | 19:48 |
| ChogyDan | Xase: I think that would be the most advanced level of help with Xorg that you could ask for. But yeah, I wouldn't think many have hdtvs connect to their computers, but I dunno | 19:48 |

| Xase | It's not that I feel ignored ilovefairuz I've been coming online for 5 days now, almost, controlling this thing mainly with my ipod. it's just aggravating that it seems like I'm stuck in /dev/null with what should be pretty simple because I can just use fbset on a ps3 to correct overscan, but I've asked if I could use it in this situation, and noone has even responded to that query. | 19:49 |

| sacarlson | bihari: screen saver does that, did you change usb ports for your mouse? | 20:03 |
| g0th | my monitor is acer x192w, I dont get to the graphical interface, so I specified vesa in my xorg.conf (this works), the nvidia drivers 186 173 98 dont work and they give a message that the edid of my crt-0 was not found. The nouveau driver also doesnt work. Everything worked before the holiday (ie. about 3 months ago) | 20:03 |
| subone | edbian, currently i use gnome. if there is a gnome solution i prefer it | 20:03 |
| makulkar_ | I get this error after login screen. "Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://www.gnome.org/projects/gconf/ for information." | 20:03 |

| g0th | where can I find a edid.bin for my monitor? | 20:04 |
| arrrghhh | g0th, i have no clue what that is... what are you trying to do? | 20:04 |
| g0th | hmm another question that came to my mind: why does no version of the nvidia drivers work? shouldnt the old driver work? Or where is the information about the did stored? | 20:04 |
| g0th | arrrghhh: I am trying to get a graphical interface working. | 20:05 |
| edbian | subone, That's probably the closest thing to what you're asking for. However there are a couple widget packages in the repos (screenlets and gdesklets to name 2). Conky is a ridiculously customizable system monitor that can be drawn transparently on the desktop. Lastly you can embed a terminal in your desktop. Then theoretically, any cli app could be on the desktop. | 20:05 |

| edbian | tucemiux_, Oh, I'm sure it does I just don't know the options you need to give to it. | 20:06 |

| g0th | also do-release-upgrade doesnt work | 20:11 |
| Yadira | ok i do that | 20:11 |
| arrrghhh | g0th, did you put sudo in front of it? | 20:11 |
| Fernandos | I am attached to with ethernet at this moment | 20:11 |
| Fernandos | to the internet | 20:11 |
| aeon-ltd | g0th: what about the proper update manager? | 20:11 |
| bihari | man seriously speaking i am fed up of this | 20:11 |
| Yadira | how to get it full screen ? | 20:11 |
| bihari | i am pissed offf | 20:11 |
| Yadira | do u know | 20:11 |
| Fernandos | but I don't know why I cannot connect via network manager | 20:12 |
| ilovefairuz | Fernandos: pastebin: lshw -C network | 20:12 |
| sacarlson | bihari: I think the xserver uses diferent drivers for keyboard and mouse then what you started with. | 20:12 |
| ilovefairuz | !paste > Fernandos | 20:12 |
| ubottu | Fernandos, please see my private message | 20:12 |
| Fernandos | ilovefairuz: hm okay | 20:12 |
| g0th | aeon-ltd: it also didnt work, but I now try to remove some problematic packages like skype that might have caused the failure to upgrade | 20:12 |
| bihari | so how to i get my gui back | 20:12 |
| bihari | i want 1st that | 20:12 |
| littlepenguin | bihari what about another keyboard? | 20:12 |
| g0th | arrrghhh: I use linux since over 11 years, usually I dont make such mistakes as forgetting sudo | 20:12 |
| Yadira | the bigger i can get is 1200 + 768 | 20:12 |
| Xase | .... | 20:12 |
| Xase | BRB | 20:13 |
| arrrghhh | g0th, had to ask. | 20:13 |
| Xase | This is nonsense. | 20:13 |
| Yadira | is half the screen | 20:13 |
| g0th | no problem | 20:13 |
| Yadira | i want fuul screen | 20:13 |
| bihari | ]dude i am student i have onl 1 computer and lapy | 20:13 |
| tucemiux_ | Yadira, to get full screen is always flaky, since the laptop is opened you might need to hit a combination of keys on your laptop so that the screen goes to the monitor, on my laptop is "FN +F8", look at your keyboard and you should see a key labeled "Fn" and should be maybe colored blue, you should see another key labeled something like "CRT/LCD" | 20:13 |
| EdwardL | hiku: Ok, it is working. Now to see if I can get to some restricted drives or whatever. :S | 20:13 |
| g0th | I think it was skype that caused the problem, the command line tool showed a message, the graphical tool just failed | 20:13 |
| ilovefairuz | Yadira: try changing it from system > preferences > monitor | 20:13 |
| littlepenguin | bihari when you start recovery console do you can use keyboard there? | 20:13 |
| g0th | fyi, this is my brother's pc | 20:13 |
| Yadira | im on that option | 20:13 |
| sacarlson | bihari: reinstall? live boot cd | 20:13 |
| littlepenguin | or 1st bihari does the keyboard leds light up when pc starts?? | 20:14 |
| ilovefairuz | Yadira: it's called "display" not monitor | 20:14 |
| Yadira | let me check that | 20:14 |
| arrrghhh | anybody know what permissions 999:999 are? i'm trying to use nfs between a suse box and an ubuntu box. | 20:14 |
| Fernandos | ilovefairuz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/476570/ here is the paste | 20:14 |
| littlepenguin | arrgghh satans permission | 20:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | arrrghhh, actually i think that is a user not permission?! I could be wrong. | 20:14 |
| tucemiux_ | arrrghhh, those permissions only work on windows O_o | 20:15 |
| arrrghhh | ZykoticK9, sorry, you are correct. 999 is the user, and 999 is the group. | 20:15 |
| bihari | yes | 20:15 |
| arrrghhh | tucemiux_, it is an NTFS drive... but i should still be able to write to it over nfs, no? | 20:15 |
| Yadira | no display options for me on ubuntu 10.4 | 20:16 |
| bihari | littlepenguin: yes light get emiited when i start my computer | 20:16 |
| tucemiux_ | arrrghhh, there is no such thing as a 9 on a permission, the highest is 7 | 20:16 |
| Yadira | just monitors | 20:16 |
| luah | hi!!! | 20:16 |
| KE1HA | arrrghhh, I dont think NFS supports NTFS | 20:16 |
| Yadira | and i have tha funtion button on keyboard but is not working | 20:16 |
| arrrghhh | tucemiux_, yea, i was incorrect in my verbage. i meant user/group is 999:999. | 20:16 |
| ilovefairuz | Fernandos: sudo apt-get install pastebinit; sudo tail -n 500 /var/log/messages | pastebinit - | 20:16 |
| Yadira | to swithc monitors | 20:16 |
| arrrghhh | KE1HA, damnit. not even with fuse? | 20:17 |
| tucemiux_ | Yadira, you must have to reboot your laptop with the monitor hooked up to the laptop | 20:17 |
| Yadira | ok | 20:17 |
| ilovefairuz | Yadira: please group your words on one line | 20:17 |
| Fernandos | ilovefairuz: what does that do? | 20:17 |
| tucemiux_ | Yadira, sorry i meant to say you ***might*** | 20:17 |
| Yadira | BRB guys | 20:17 |
| luah | hello | 20:17 |

| luah | how to install login screen in ubuntu 10.04? | 20:18 |
| arrrghhh | tucemiux_, i already said i was incorrect. i meant user/group. the user is 999 and the group is 999. | 20:18 |
| KE1HA | arrrghhh, I dont know about fuse, but im pretty certain that NFS can't export to NTFS | 20:18 |
| makao | i'm trying to install the subversion python bindings (SWIG) so that i can use subversion hooks to send email notification of commits. is there a package in apt that i can use to do this, or do i have to install from source? | 20:18 |
| KE1HA | arrrghhh, I could be wrong, will do some digging. | 20:18 |
| Fernandos | ilovefairuz: here is the link it produced http://pastebin.com/a91nNxQi | 20:18 |
| arrrghhh | KE1HA, hrm. that's a bummer. i thought i did it with my server rig before, but i don't remember how. my server's all ext4 now so that doesn't matter, but this is at work. | 20:18 |
| tucemiux_ | arrrghhh, there is no such thing as a 9 on a permission, the highest is 7 | 20:19 |
| arrrghhh | tucemiux_, jesus christ on a stick are you not reading what i said? i was WRONG, i meant user/group NOT permission!!! | 20:19 |
| tucemiux_ | user=999, group=999?? | 20:19 |

| bad_alloc | hello i'm trying to burn backtrack to a dvd under ubutnu 10.04. now i've only got one dvd and only one chance to get it right. thus my question: is it ok to right click the iso, select burn to cd/dvd and hit burn? will the dvd be bootable or will ist just contain the iso (i am pretty sure its going t be bootable since i remember to have burned my 10.04 under 8.10 in a similar fashion). | 20:20 |
| arrrghhh | tucemiux_, yes, that's why i'm confused. it seems NFS and NTFS may not play nicely together. | 20:20 |
| Fernandos | ilovefairuz: you can see that I tried using an usb wifi adapter also, but that didn't even get detected. so I unplugged it. But I want my WIFI work so hard, My laptop works so fine with ubuntu, except that it does not connect to my network, I can list the networks though | 20:21 |

| arrrghhh | KE1HA, lol. i'm just trying to get a puny server backed up, and i'm running out of ideas here. i thought an old lappy with a 40gb drive would be perfect for the job. damnit. | 20:22 |

| AviMarcus | what do I do with a stuck install? kill the process and try to remember what I was installing? | 20:25 |
| arrrghhh | maybe i'll make an ext2 partition on my 8gb sd card... perhaps that would be enough space. then share it via nfs... wow this is getting sequitious. | 20:25 |
| RyanP | bad_alloc, That would probably work, but it's likely even safer to start Brasero and select "Burn Image" | 20:25 |

| bad_alloc | good to be on the safer side now :) | 20:26 |
| brontoeee | lolmac, sure, nautilus can do it filewise if you have ssh server installed | 20:27 |
| lyra | anyone... | 20:27 |
| brontoeee | lolmac, or cli of course | 20:27 |
| lolmac | brontoeee, i meant not filewise, like something similar to vnc | 20:28 |
| lolmac | cli is similar to vnc? | 20:28 |
| brontoeee | lolmac, then you looking at remote desktop | 20:28 |
| lolmac | yes | 20:28 |

| hiku | gabriel_: when you say "connect" do you mean like telnet or like file sharing from win to lin | 20:46 |

| erUSUL | gabriel_: you want to see a gui or command line is sufficient | 20:46 |
| arrrghhh | tehowe, like i said, it really depends on what you're doing. not like windows has a listing of ALL the ways to configure every piece of software. sure there's the registry, but that's just a kludge. | 20:46 |

| annie | hiku: Awesome. That makes it a bit easier. thanks... I gotta keep better notes next time I do something like this | 20:54 |
| annie | ilovefairuz: sweet... kk | 20:55 |
| nmvictor | any chance i could have support for UDF file system in my ubuntu box? | 20:55 |
| Gor | hey guys I have 2GHz pentium 4 with 768MB Ram, which ubuntu will run smoothly? | 20:56 |
| Gor | I see ubuntu requires 1Gb ram thats why I ask | 20:56 |
| ikonia | Gor: more than meets the resources | 20:56 |
| ikonia | Gor: where do you see 1 GB ? | 20:56 |
| xerox1 | gor try xubuntu | 20:56 |
| Gor | on the ubuntu requirements | 20:56 |
| TELL0 | xubuntu require the same as ubuntu do | 20:57 |
| nmvictor | any chance i could have support for UDF file system in my ubuntu box? | 20:57 |
| xerox1 | yes, but it's a little bit lighter | 20:57 |
| arrrghhh | Gor, i believe that's the *recommended* config. | 20:57 |
| Gor | xubuntu was kind of slow for me i was surprised | 20:57 |
| TELL0 | ubuntu is runnable on a 500Mb | 20:57 |
| xerox1 | running xubuntu on p3 500mhz 256mb | 20:57 |
| xerox1 | works | 20:57 |
| Gor | ok thanks guys I will try ubuntu by wubi | 20:58 |
| arrrghhh | Gor, yes, 1gb is recommended. | 20:58 |
| xerox1 | no one around with this random mouse-click issue? | 20:58 |
| ikonia | Gor: I think you'll be fine with ubuntu to be honest, as long as your not doing intense thigns with it, as a desktop machine it will be fine | 20:58 |
| Gor | thanks | 20:58 |
| ikonia | 1GB of ram see's agressive | 20:58 |
| Gor | if I install on a windows with wubi, will I have any performance limitations? | 20:58 |
| arrrghhh | Gor, yes. | 20:59 |
| sticky | I've ran Ubuntu on 32mb of ram | 20:59 |
| arrrghhh | sticky, with a GUI? | 20:59 |
| sticky | fluxbox would work, yes | 20:59 |
| ikonia | sticky: with the gnome desktop ? | 20:59 |
| sticky | no :P | 20:59 |
| arrrghhh | ah, yes with flux... hahaha. | 20:59 |
| TELL0 | Lubuntu is very fast | 20:59 |
| sticky | Gnome won't run on 32mb of ram, lol | 20:59 |
| Gor | Ive never seen lubuntu | 20:59 |
| arrrghhh | Yea, Lubuntu seems to be what Xubuntu was supposed to be. | 20:59 |
| ikonia | sticky: right, so you're not running ubuntu | 20:59 |
| arrrghhh | Gor, uses LXDE as the WM. | 20:59 |
| sticky | ikonia, incorrect, there is such a thing as "ubuntu server" | 21:00 |
| xerox1 | is lubuntu stable allready? tested it at an very early version | 21:00 |
| ikonia | sticky: are you running ubuntu server ? | 21:00 |
| Gor | im looking for something fast for music/browsing on 760mb ram, which will perform better lubuntu or ubuntu? | 21:00 |
| sticky | Gor, Debian | 21:00 |
| ikonia | Gor: lubuntu is a lighter resource user | 21:00 |
| TELL0 | xerox1, lubuntu is very stable. I tried it and is pretty good | 21:01 |
| ikonia | sticky: no - debian won't make a difference | 21:01 |
| xerox1 | TELL0, okay, thx | 21:01 |
| arrrghhh | Gor, if you want something that's performance related you may not want to run a GUI at all. ubuntu-server or debian w/o X. | 21:01 |
| sticky | ikonia, no but at least it won't be patched 300 times until it works semi-reasonably | 21:01 |
| === emc_ is now known as emc | ||
| TELL0 | Gor, lubuntu could be better on that RAM | 21:01 |
| Gor | ok I will try thanks guys, sorry Im new to linux | 21:01 |
| sticky | We were all new to linux at one point, don't be sorry | 21:02 |
| TELL0 | Gor, but lubuntu doesn't have wubi. Try it with a liveCD | 21:02 |
| parsa | The problem occurs when trying to shutdown/restart from the LogOut menu. The screen then just goes black or shows some small colored squares before the usplash appears and the computer hangs there. It does not respond to anything at all except for pressing the shutdown button for 5-6 seconds (hard reboot). | 21:02 |
| Gor | the thing with the live cd is that you cant really see performance until you install it | 21:02 |
| ikonia | Gor: that's very true | 21:02 |
| ikonia | Gor: wubi will also have performance limitations too though | 21:03 |
| TELL0 | I'm helping here, but asking somewhere else. So, we are all new in somewhere | 21:03 |
| lolmac | is it normal in ubuntu to continue playing the sound for a little while, when the youtube video player is paused? | 21:03 |
| Gor | i was told that only limitation with wubi is that it cant hibernate or something | 21:03 |
| MeXTuX | I'm using Lucid Lynx and have noted some intense hard disk activity periods very often. Most of the time I have only Firefox running. It's very annoying because the PC doesn't respond me quickly when this happens. Here are my hard disks settings: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/16QRFRZx | 21:03 |
| ikonia | Gor: no, as it's running on a file system, on a file system already, so there is a limitation on it's performance | 21:04 |
| TELL0 | lolmac, that's sometimes also happen on windows, so I think is not an ubuntu problem maybe something else | 21:04 |
| Gor | i tried installing along with windows, but it splits my second HD instead of the windows C drive | 21:04 |
| ilovefairuz | Gor: install ubuntu server and then sudo apt-get install gnome-core .. you'll get a very basic/lightweight but familiar desktop | 21:04 |
| parsa | The problem occurs when trying to shutdown/restart from the LogOut menu. The screen then just goes black or shows some small colored squares before the usplash appears and the computer hangs there. It does not respond to anything at all except for pressing the shutdown button for 5-6 seconds (hard reboot). | 21:05 |
| TELL0 | Gor, try liveCD | 21:05 |
| parsa | plz help me | 21:05 |
| ikonia | TELL0: he's just explained the performance limitations are not a valid test | 21:05 |
| hiku | !ask | parsa | 21:05 |
| ubottu | parsa: 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. :-) | 21:05 |
| ilovefairuz | MeXTuX: to find what's writing to desk: iotop -oPa | 21:05 |
| Gor | Ive tried the live cd I like it, I want to install it to get the best performance, the installation wizard only lets me select to partition the D drive, not the C to install with windows | 21:06 |
| ikonia | Gor: you'll need to allocate free space on the c drive for that to work | 21:06 |
| Gor | I have 40Gb of free space but all in 1 partition | 21:06 |
| parsa | i can't shudown from leave menu in kubuntu | 21:06 |
| remoteaccess | Hi there. I'm using X11 window forwarding with SSL to use linux apps remotely on a Windows (work machine. | 21:06 |
| === james0 is now known as JamesVoss | ||
| ikonia | Gor: you need to have free space outside the partition | 21:07 |
| ikonia | Gor: as unallocated space | 21:07 |
| Gor | o i see | 21:07 |
| TELL0 | Gor, if you wanna run ubuntu alongside windows, you should keep windows partition intact | 21:07 |
| ratdog | i cannot for the life of me get my gnome network applet back an to autostart so i can use wifi? | 21:07 |
| ikonia | TELL0: please stop talking nonsense, | 21:07 |
| remoteaccess | I find it's quite slow and am looking for abit of direction regarding testing the speed that SSL is achieving between my server and my Work machine. | 21:07 |
| TELL0 | Gor, you need another partition | 21:07 |
| ikonia | TELL0: he can resize the windows partition without issue | 21:07 |
| Gor | do you think I should seprate the 10Gb of the C drive as anallocated and install ubuntu on it? | 21:07 |
| MeXTuX | Do I have to write iotop -oPa in a terminal when that happens??? | 21:08 |
| ikonia | Gor: 10GB will work, although be aware the more applications/codecs you install, it WILL fill up | 21:08 |
| Gor | Thanks | 21:08 |
| TELL0 | ikonia, do you have a problem with me??? | 21:08 |
| Laggg | Question: I'm on an iMac and Ubuntu won't recognize my AUX OUTPUT. How do I fix this? | 21:08 |
| ilovefairuz | remoteaccess: it's "SSH" not SSL, and try using compression (the -C option) | 21:08 |
| ikonia | TELL0: no, just giving out wrong information | 21:08 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: the most issue with that will be the local X server on the windows machine | 21:08 |
| remoteaccess | Whoops. SSH yes. | 21:08 |
| ilovefairuz | MeXTuX: yes | 21:08 |
| TELL0 | so, ikonia, you can install ubuntu in the same partition of windows??? How can you do that? Explain me please | 21:09 |
| ilovefairuz | MeXTuX: make sure it's installed now: sudo apt-get install iotop | 21:09 |
| remoteaccess | ilovefairuz: I was thinking about trying that in the future but I really want to test the upload speed. | 21:09 |
| MeXTuX | I'm installing it right now :) | 21:09 |
| ikonia | TELL0: you can either use wubi, or you can resize the windows partition to create unallocated space for the ubuntu install | 21:09 |
| haavaros | Hi, every1! Is there a way to have f-spot only import files created after last import? It seems to use so much time on old files that are already imported | 21:09 |
| remoteaccess | ikonia: I'm sure it's the upload speed! | 21:09 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: why ? | 21:09 |
| Laggg | Question: I'm on an iMac and Ubuntu won't recognize my AUX OUTPUT. How do I fix this? | 21:10 |
| thune3 | MeXTuX: firefox (unless they changed it recently) blocks on a bunch of osync writes, which can cause ff to hang for a few seconds during high disk activity. | 21:10 |
| remoteaccess | ikonia: Well I did read that compression was for 56k connections and that it shouldn't be required with broadband. | 21:10 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: again, why do you think it's the upload speed ? | 21:10 |
| TELL0 | and that's gonna be perfect for ubuntu performance for sure. Come on! Is better if he has another partition formated in Ext4 or 3 and install linux on it | 21:11 |
| pil | Hello everyone - I have a simple question - within the permission stuff in any file - in the group permission window - there are many choices - like cd-rom, dip, fax etc... * could you explain them a little bit for me please in order to make me happy? :) | 21:11 |
| ikonia | TELL0: he will need another partition, but he does not need to keep his windows partition in tact, nor does he need a sperate disk | 21:11 |
| Laggg | Question: I'm on an iMac and Ubuntu won't recognize my AUX OUTPUT. How do I fix this? | 21:11 |
| Laggg | Question: I'm on an iMac and Ubuntu won't recognize my AUX OUTPUT. How do I fix this? | 21:11 |
| kraxen | i can't get netflix to stream | 21:11 |
| Laggg | Question: I'm on an iMac and Ubuntu won't recognize my AUX OUTPUT. How do I fix this? | 21:11 |
| ikonia | Laggg: please dont spam the channel | 21:11 |
| ikonia | too late | 21:11 |
| ilovefairuz | MeXTuX: thune3: this was supposedly fixed | 21:11 |
| bathacid | can someone help me patching aircrack -ng i have read fourms after fourms and still nothing that really helps me | 21:12 |
| Slart | pil: there are a lot of user groups in linux.. they are usually used to give access to different things.. ie the audio group might be used for users that should be allowed to play sound.. | 21:12 |
| kraxen | is moonlight working with netflix or not? | 21:12 |
| TELL0 | again, can he install ubuntu on a windows partition? with wubi the performance is affected | 21:12 |
| ilovefairuz | pil: just select the group that has the same name as yours, these groups are not for files but for users to be able to accesses devices or services | 21:13 |
| ikonia | TELL0: it's not going on the windows partition | 21:13 |
| remoteaccess | ikonia: I'm just assuming that and wanted to rule out any upload speed issues I suppose. Maybe the speed I'm getting is correct as per the 512 up I'm paying for. I haven't used X11 forwarding before. Also it seems to be common that the cable company that I use for broadband offers poor service. | 21:13 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: ok - so I'm exaplining to you the most common issue, and you're saying you think it's something else without any reason | 21:13 |
| TELL0 | I'm just saying that is better for him to have a separate partition for linux | 21:13 |
| Gnea | bathacid: patching it how, for what? | 21:13 |
| ikonia | TELL0: I agree, it has to be on a seperate partition, | 21:14 |
| bathacid | Gnea: so it will support injections | 21:14 |
| Gnea | bathacid: you have the patch for it already? | 21:15 |
| MrPicard | hi guys, im looking at purchasing a server with ubuntu installed, does anyone know a good hardware vendor? | 21:15 |
| bathacid | thats what i was having the problem finding | 21:15 |
| pil | Slart, ilovefairuz: So, for instance if I give rwx for an .mp3 file to a tape permission in the group section of the permission selection, another user can play and execute the .mp3 file when she/he opens the session in her/his home folder? | 21:15 |
| remoteaccess | ikonia: It just seems to be very slow using links2 for example. Less than ISDN speed I should imagine. As I said I'm new to this forwarding though so maybe it's all I should be expecting given that it's encrypted. | 21:15 |
| MeXTuX | In fact the hard disk activity causes FF to hang for a seconds (sometimes I'm watching youtube or using facebook) | 21:16 |
| Gnea | bathacid: well see, here's the thing. this is the Ubuntu support channel. We support Ubuntu in the general sense. We don't support nor condone activities that can directly lead to malicious activity, including cracking and hijacking wireless connections. | 21:16 |
| aztek[tum] | MrPicard: System 76 | 21:17 |
| bcurren | i'm curious if anyone could point me in the right direction for auto updating ubuntu servers. | 21:17 |
| kraxen | i have the moonlight plugin core/mozilla/ and lib do i need something else to stream netflix? | 21:17 |
| bathacid | ok sorry to ask in the wrong place | 21:17 |
| Gnea | bathacid: #freenode might be a better place to ask from | 21:17 |
| maquis | probably a stupid question here... I forgot to back up my cupsd.conf before replacing it with another file. New file doesn't work successfully and I would like to revert back to the version that was created automatically at install-time. | 21:17 |
| ikonia | bathacid: there is a good guide on the wiki, including how to set policy, eg: update everything but kernel, | 21:17 |
| MrPicard | Looking for a cheap/affordable one...any clues if there any other hardware vendors out there? | 21:17 |
| Slart | pil: files have different permissions for 1. the owner of the file 2. users that are members of the group of the file and 3. Everyone else ... I'm not exactly sure what you were asking but usually you don't mess with groups of files as a normal user.. if it's your file set it to the group that is called the same as your username | 21:17 |
| bcurren | we currently run chef and it run apt-get update and apt-get upgrade every 30 min on our test environment. seems like a bad idea and i'm trying to gather best practices. | 21:18 |
| hiku | !ot | kraxen | 21:18 |
| ubottu | kraxen: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 21:18 |
| maquis | Is there any way to do that? I tried to uninstall and reinstall ubuntu, but a normal uninstall didn't do it, and trying a --purge wanted to remove ubuntu-desktop | 21:18 |
| maquis | er | 21:18 |
| Gnea | hiku: that's offtopic how? | 21:18 |
| maquis | no... not uninstall ubuntu | 21:18 |
| Slart | pil: so it would depend both on what group you specified for the file AND what the group permissions are for the file | 21:18 |
| maquis | uninstall cups | 21:18 |
| hiku | Gnea: well, flash isn't just a part of ubuntu, either is firefox | 21:18 |
| nixbox | hi all | 21:19 |
| computa_mike | Hi - I was wondering if anyone knows how I can fix Grub. I have Karmic that I upgraded to Lucid - It' on SDA4, with home on SDA7. I was trying to get SuperGrub Disk 2 thinking I might be able to use that... I did try booting through the live CD but when i issued an install-grub command onto the mounted Filesystem but it complained about being unable to update an existing file as it already existing as a directory | 21:19 |
| Gnea | hiku: but making them work together in an ethical manner is what this channel is about. | 21:19 |
| hiku | bcurren: what about mirroring the ubuntu updates locally then doing the updates. | 21:19 |
| aztek[tum] | MrPicard: They start @ 700 bones. If you want a server that's about as low as you go. Unless you eBay something used | 21:19 |
| MrPicard | Ok, any desktop suppliers? | 21:19 |
| hiku | Gnea: so, if I'm using fedora and I have the same question then I should come to #ubuntu to resolve it? | 21:20 |
| arrrghhh | Gnea, flash sucks. complain to adobe. unfortunately not much ubuntu can do about it unless some OSS project sprouts up. gnash last i tried it was even worse. | 21:20 |
| lelle | my wirelass has no ip address, how do i give it one? sudo dhclient doesnt do anything | 21:20 |
| bcurren | hiku:is that a standard practice? i don't mind running update and upgrade every 30 min but I want to make sure I'm not kicking myself | 21:20 |
| ikonia | hiku: we support the ubuntu operating system and applications on it - not fedora, | 21:20 |
| Gnea | hiku: no that would take place in #fedora, of course | 21:20 |
| pil | Slart: I got it.... the thing is I understood the permissions of the owner but when it comes to group permissions thing - it is a little confusing when I see sambashare, plugdev, fuse, dip etc... but overall I got the point.. | 21:20 |
| remoteaccess | ikonia: Just trying it with compression set here now and 'not much difference' :( | 21:20 |
| arrrghhh | lelle, are you running dhcp? are you able to see the AP from a scan? | 21:20 |
| TyanColte | got a question, i installed Startup Manager to configure my grub and splash screen from a Graphical Interface and for some reason since the last update i have lost some of my options especially for the splash screen. any ideas? | 21:20 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: as I've said the most common issue will be the local X11 server on the windows machine | 21:20 |
| remoteaccess | ikonia: Can you explain what you mean by that please? | 21:21 |
| Slart | pil: hang on.. let me see if there isn't a permissions factoid | 21:21 |
| Slart | !permissions | pil | 21:21 |
| ubottu | pil: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 21:21 |

| === arno__ is now known as _arno_ | ||
| lelle | arrrghhh: ? dont know, but my wired connection has an ip | 21:21 |
| ikonia | lelle: we looked at this the other day and it appeared your wireless card was not connected to the wirless access point | 21:21 |
| Gnea | kraxen: read this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1091125 | 21:21 |
| Slart | pil: ah, there you go.. perhaps that link will explain it better than I can | 21:21 |
| ikonia | lelle: I also told you not to run your wired connection on the same network as your wirless as that would confuse routing | 21:21 |
| arrrghhh | lelle, ok... if you cant see any AP's with the wifi then i'd say you may not have the correct drivers... or the card is turned off in bios, etc. | 21:21 |
| annie | Another question, On my Mac I can easily set the internal ip as static. I tried to do that on Ubuntu and lost all Internet connection. Can I have a static internal ip on Ubuntu? | 21:22 |
| pil | Slart, ubottu: I am looking into this - thanks so much... ;) | 21:22 |
| lelle | ikonia: i never understood what you meant :( network? | 21:22 |
| arrrghhh | annie, of course! you just have to do it correctly (no offense). how did you set the IP statically? | 21:22 |
| Gnea | annie: sure, just use network manager or wicd | 21:22 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: a common issue with X11 apps on windows is the X server your running on windows drawing/redrawing the windows and sending input, X11 is not native to windows and it takes a bit of trsnslation at the app layer to work | 21:22 |
| ikonia | lelle: you don't understand the word network ? | 21:22 |
| lelle | ikonia: what network? everything is network in internet world .. | 21:23 |
| ikonia | lelle: there is a network in your house that connects you to the internet | 21:23 |
| === XunZi__ is now known as XunZi | ||
| ikonia | lelle: running the wirless and wired lan on the same network at the same time (on the same machine) will cause routing issues | 21:23 |

| bathacid | how can i check my kernel version? | 21:24 |
| ikonia | uname -r | 21:24 |
| mejjad | hey all. I have installed lamp succesfully and now unpacked a web-mediaserver. I surf to http://localhost/jinzora/install/install.html but I get "Forbidden. You don't have permission to access blabla". I tried chmod -R g+r on the jinzora folder. Any thoughts? | 21:24 |
| arrrghhh | annie, ok, and then did you specify what address, subnet, and gateway you need? | 21:24 |
| ikonia | mbeierl: who is the group owner | 21:25 |
| AviMarcus | If a software install is frozen, what should I do? | 21:25 |
| Gnea | annie, arrrghhh: we prefer not to utilize the /etc/network/interfaces file directly on the desktop version as it can cause long-term problems. NM works great; I've found that wicd works the best, but that's just my experience. | 21:25 |
| mbeierl | ikonia: ... think that might have been for another mb? | 21:25 |
| === gin is now known as XunZi | ||
| remoteaccess | ikonia: I suppose I hadn't really thought it through fully in that the remote connection is uploading to the server aswell. However where I currently am has a powerful upload and at work with 10Mb up!! I'm sure you can understand that I would like to find the bottleneck so I can decide that I have to learn to live with slow GUI's. | 21:25 |
| ikonia | mbeierl: correct, sorry | 21:25 |
| arrrghhh | Gnea, hrm. i use the server edition, sorry. didn't realize that would cause issues with the desktop edition... | 21:26 |
| mbeierl | ikonia: np, just wanted to make sure you knew :) | 21:26 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: I've used X11 on windows on a 1GB connection and seen slow window movement | 21:26 |
| ikonia | mbeierl: appreciated | 21:26 |
| annie | arrrghhh: so Gnea means what now? | 21:26 |
| bathacid | how can i check my kernel version? | 21:26 |
| kraxen | msg genea thanks for the link this answers my question | 21:27 |
| ikonia | bathacid: uname -r | 21:27 |
| arrrghhh | annie, don't use the /etc/network/interfaces file basically. | 21:27 |
| Gnea | arrrghhh: it's okay, I use both. NM has been known to run into problems here and there, while wicd seems to be quite solid when it comes to remembering correct settings. | 21:27 |
| bathacid | ty | 21:27 |
| TyanColte | ok, never mind found the answer to that one online. new question. how can i reset my splash screen on Ubuntu 10.04 | 21:27 |
| arrrghhh | Gnea, i've found that as well. i wish NM was as robust as wicd, i don't really like how it looks in the systray :P | 21:27 |
| remoteaccess | ikonia: Well I'm using links2 graphical lightweight browser and the window is in a static position in my browser. The only think changing is the web pages inside. Google home page is even quite slow to draw and that's predominantly white. | 21:27 |
| mbeierl | so, how do I turn off my touchpad in Lucid?!? I've gone to the mouse preferences and have Disable tocuhpad while typing, and manually run syndaemon and watched it say disabled, but the annoying touch pad keeps moving even when syndaemon says its disabled. | 21:27 |
| annie | Gnea: so I install wicd via apt-get? | 21:27 |
| Gnea | annie: yeah | 21:28 |
| arrrghhh | annie, so in network manager you went to ipv4 settings | 21:28 |
| annie | Gnea: cool beans. | 21:28 |

| ikonia | remoteaccess: each intput is a window re-draw | 21:28 |
| Gnea | annie: I prefer them hot, with melted cheese ;) | 21:28 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: the fact that a page redraw is slow says a lot | 21:28 |
| annie | arrrghhh: ok.... so editing the network settings is ok then? | 21:28 |
| === XunZi is now known as Ginbuntu | ||
| arrrghhh | annie, yes, within network manager. on that ipv4 settings tab choose manual and add an address. | 21:29 |
| remoteaccess | ikonia: How do you mean? | 21:29 |
| lelle | hmm how to see what wireless driver im using? | 21:29 |
| === Leif_afk is now known as Leif | ||
| Gnea | I only suggested wicd as an alternative because it's easier for some people to use. | 21:29 |
| mun_ | hi | 21:29 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: drawing a pure white page is slow.....that's local rendering | 21:29 |
| annie | arrrghhh: and 'address' is going to be my internal static... right? | 21:29 |
| mun_ | what is a better package for javac? openjdk? gcj? | 21:30 |
| arrrghhh | annie, yes. netmask is probably going to be 255.255.255.0 and gateway is your router's IP. typically 192.168.0.1 in a home network. | 21:30 |
| Gnea | mun_: depends what you need it to be 'better' at | 21:30 |

| shsek | Hey, Can someone please take a look at http://pastie.org/private/5m3qykyxxvb96ryib4lbhw (question and some more details there)? | 21:30 |
| annie | arrrghhh: ok... that's what I put in last time and everything dropped,,,, but I'll give it another go | 21:30 |
| mun_ | xerox1, right. but on what? | 21:30 |
| bathacid | if i have to make changes to my kernel how would i go about getting to it? | 21:31 |
| Gnea | arrrghhh: why would you set the gateway on another interface as the gw for a private interface? | 21:31 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: tell you what, you do what you want, you're clearly not listening to what I'm saying | 21:31 |
| arrrghhh | annie, you're SURE that you're using the correct values? you also have to make sure you're using an IP that isn't in the DHCP range of your router. | 21:31 |
| Gnea | !ics | annie, arrrghhh | 21:31 |
| ubottu | annie, arrrghhh: If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php | 21:31 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: you're asking what the problem is, I'm telling you the most common issue, and you're finding nonsense reasons to disagree, so do what you want | 21:31 |
| xerox1 | mun_, if you really need the original version or if the open one does the trick | 21:31 |
| arrrghhh | Gnea, wth are you talking about? she's just trying to get a static ip. | 21:31 |
| xerox1 | i am personally using the original version | 21:31 |
| mun_ | xerox1, is there any reason why the original is not desirable? | 21:31 |
| Gnea | arrrghhh: exactly, and please watch your language, this is a family channel. | 21:32 |
| fancybit | where are the files of info command? | 21:32 |
| arrrghhh | what the heck? | 21:32 |
| Gnea | okay. | 21:32 |

| mun_ | xerox1, ok thanks | 21:32 |
| purpzey | How do I add a user to 'disk'? | 21:32 |
| xerox1 | mun_, u'r welcome | 21:32 |
| remoteaccess | ikonia: I'm sorry to hear that you have interpreted the conversation that way. In my mind I was just questioning all info given to clarify in my own mind and learning stuff in the meantime. Given that reponse I suspect that you expected me to leave accept that X11 forwarding is slow at face value and not look for any potential problems? | 21:33 |
| fancybit | I download the doc of mailutils, seems they can be add into the info? | 21:33 |
| Gnea | arrrghhh: it just seems silly that we're both trying to help her - go ahead | 21:33 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: not at all, but you're not questioning it with anything logical | 21:33 |
| bathacid | how do you get to your kernel to make changes to it | 21:33 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: what part did I question your machine specs ? | 21:33 |
| arrrghhh | Gnea, lol yea it is a little confusing. | 21:33 |
| adac | Where do I have to place a script that will be executed on the establishemnt of a network connection? | 21:33 |
| arrrghhh | Gnea, i just didn't understand why you were talking about internet connection sharing. seemed to bring a whole nother layer of complexity. | 21:34 |
| tensorpudding | adac: there might be an Upstart rule for that | 21:34 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: it doesn't have to be slow, I've had it perform very well, but it's a trial and error situation with applications, X11 server on window applications and configuration | 21:34 |
| tarpman | adac: try /etc/network/if-up.d/ | 21:34 |
| arrrghhh | remoteaccess, have you tried !freenx? | 21:34 |
| arrrghhh | er | 21:34 |
| Cahl-hith | Is the ubuntu startup screen supposed to be blank? | 21:35 |
| Gnea | arrrghhh: well, in my experience with setting up an internal ip, the external ip winds up being the 'default' gateway, so no gateway needs to be specified for the internet interface | 21:35 |
| arrrghhh | !freenx | remoteaccess | 21:35 |
| ubottu | remoteaccess: FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX | 21:35 |
| lelle | ikonia: if i unplug the ethernet cable, is there any command i should/could run to give the wireless an ip? | 21:35 |
| Cahl-hith | when you first download it? | 21:35 |
| annie | arrrghhh: that didn't take. My settings changed. Netmask changed to 225.0.0.0 and Gateway changed to 0.0.0.0 | 21:35 |
| Gnea | arrrghhh: all that needs to be done is to setup ip forwarding | 21:35 |
| ikonia | lelle: if the wirless card is connected to the access point and set to dhcp, it should get one | 21:35 |
| arrrghhh | Gnea, i guess if you're going straight out to the 'net. i guess i assumed she's using a router. | 21:35 |
| Jordan_U | computa_mike: What happens when you try to boot normally or with Super GRUB2 Disk? | 21:35 |
| arrrghhh | annie, ok are you using a router? what IP are you trying to use? what is the IP of the router? | 21:35 |
| remoteaccess | ikonia: You didn't question my specs but you suggested that X window solutions for Windows are slow and that's it. When you said that the X window solution was slow I ruled out any local hardware issues by giving my system specs. Are you saying Xming is slow on windows because it's not native full stop? Is Windows API that bad - how do any third party apps work? | 21:35 |
| adac | tarpman, tensorpudding its already in there. But unfortunatly it does not get executed, but on older ubuntu it has been executed | 21:36 |
| lelle | ikona in iwconfig: wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:off/any Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated | 21:36 |
| Gnea | annie: just to clarify, are you using 2 nics in a desktop machine? | 21:36 |
| pil | :P - I am back again with one of my super-stupid questions - buckle your seat belts please - here it goes... In the Ubuntu pocket guide, it says that "the user called frank creates a spreadsheet, he is a member of the accounts group along with the user called jane his collegue in the accounts department...etc" Well, how can I create a new group like for instance -account- in the permissions group window? | 21:36 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: the X11 applications for windows are notible in their poor performance for a big chunk of the applications | 21:36 |
| tensorpudding | pil: you can create new groups under the user accounts menu | 21:37 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: a lot of it is how the local none-native windows application interperates the remote X11 app and decides how to present it to the local windows interface through the non-native re-draw | 21:37 |
| DasEi | pil: man addgroup, man adduser tells you | 21:37 |
| tensorpudding | pil: System -> Users and Groups | 21:37 |
| annie | arrrghhh: Yes with a router... it's ip is 192.168.2.1. I'm trying to use 192.168.2.4. That is not in use by any other comp | 21:37 |

| annie | Gnea: sorry... lost connection... What do you mean 'two nic on the desktop'? | 21:38 |
| arrrghhh | annie, ok. so you're putting in 192.168.2.1 for the gateway? also, the DHCP range on the router does not include that .4 address? | 21:38 |
| ikonia | remoteaccess: an api for drawing X11 apps ? no, that's what the application does | 21:38 |
| arrrghhh | annie, he just wants to know if you have more than one network card on the PC. | 21:38 |
| Gnea | annie: nic == network interface card | 21:38 |

| annie | arrrghhh: my range is from 2-100 | 21:43 |
| annie | arrrghhh: and gatway was 192.168.2.1 | 21:44 |
| arrrghhh | annie, that may be your problem, you can't assign a static IP to something within the dhcp range. my dhcp range is 100-255, so i can assign anything statically below .100. | 21:44 |
| Fernandos | Gnea: yea :( especially if one tried to connect to wifi since 4 weeks and tried everything without sucess | 21:44 |
| annie | arrrghhh: ohh.... I have to be outside the range? | 21:44 |

| Gnea | Fernandos: have you tried suspending? | 22:04 |
| Fernandos | how do you mean that? | 22:04 |
| Gnea | putting the laptop to sleep | 22:04 |
| Fernandos | do you mean if it works? | 22:04 |
| Fernandos | yes suspending works | 22:04 |
| Gnea | okay | 22:04 |
| UmlautBanana | Hi | 22:04 |
| bobo123 | Hi! is avahi needed for sharing files with smb/samba to work? I have some win98 computer that share folders and I share folder here with ubuntu to them and it works ok, and I wonder is the possiblility to see those computers here listed in network:/// dependent on Avahi, or is that for other things or sharing to Macintosh-computers? | 22:04 |
| Gnea | have you suspended it since trying to get wireless to work? | 22:05 |
| Fernandos | no | 22:05 |
| UmlautBanana | I have a linksys router, and internet doesn't work on Ubuntu 9.10 and above for me. I think I need a driver, but I don't know where to find it. | 22:05 |
| arrrghhh | bobo123, think of avahi like zeroconf dns. | 22:05 |
| Gnea | Fernandos: I can't imagine what is wrong then. can you use regular ethernet? | 22:05 |
| UmlautBanana | since it's cluttered, query me if you can help. | 22:05 |
| Fernandos | Gnea: I'm currently connected vie eth0 ;) | 22:06 |
| brontoeee | UmlautBanana, routers are standalone devices | 22:06 |
| DasEi | UmlautBanana: let's stay here | 22:06 |
| Fernandos | so yes | 22:06 |
| Gnea | :) | 22:06 |
| Gnea | good | 22:06 |
| bobo123 | I just can't really wrap my head on what Avahi do, so I thought someone knows... isn't the samba sharing using Netbios/netbeui for the knowing of computer-names sort of? | 22:06 |
| Gnea | Fernandos: try this - install wicd | 22:06 |
| Smeuuh | anyone knows what's wrong with google repos for ubuntu? | 22:06 |

| blip- | hi, I installed urxvt, when i launch it, it opens up pointing to ~/Documents. When I start Konsole however, it points to ~. Where are these settings found ? | 22:06 |
| Fernandos | already tried it Gnea.. no success | 22:06 |
| blip- | they aren't in .bashrc | 22:06 |
| UmlautBanana | I don't know how to do that | 22:06 |
| Gnea | hm | 22:06 |
| bobo123 | arrrghhh: I don't know mucgh about zeroconf either... more than avahi is an implementation of Zeroconf. | 22:07 |

| DasEi | UmlautBanana: open a terminal .. | 22:07 |
| arrrghhh | bobo123, yes, so instead of configuring dns manually it does it for you. | 22:07 |
| Kylo81 | ##kamil | 22:07 |
| DasEi | UmlautBanana: sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 22:07 |
| Gnea | Fernandos: weird... only thing I can suggest is maybe try making it passwordless and see if it connects that way, and if it works, try going back to wpa | 22:08 |
| Fernandos | Gnea: will try, immediately hold on | 22:08 |
| UmlautBanana | DasEi: sudo apt-get install. okay. | 22:08 |

| UmlautBanana | DasEi: another box? what do you mean? | 22:08 |

| hdevalence | How do I disable all hardware acceleration for GL? | 22:09 |
| bobo123 | arrrghhh: hmm.. but.. I have configured anything on the win98 computers... what is it to configure actually? the computers have their names (well smb uses the name the copmuter got when installed the os) and thats it... | 22:09 |
| UmlautBanana | DasEi: no | 22:09 |
| arrrghhh | bobo123, i didn't follow your question. what's your problem or what are you trying to do? | 22:10 |

| Fernandos | Gnea: yes it's open. still I cannot connect | 22:11 |
| arrrghhh | bobo123, oh. i don't think so, it would only cause issues if you're NOT using the IP to connect. | 22:11 |

| gimpy253 | Sovereign: Boot into an Ubuntu disk, select reovery a broken system, follow the prompts unitl you get to "re-install grub". That's the easiest way in 10.04 if you Ubuntu will not boot. | 23:07 |

| livingdaylight | maco, I'm going to leave xchat open, maybe you can pm me with an update. like that I won't miss it and I can give it a try. Is that a good idea? | 23:20 |

| chemical-death | gimpy253: did you try this in terminal "sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove" | 23:20 |
| bculp | Hello | 23:20 |
| kamil_ | Hi! I've got an error when i starting gconftool --spawn that | 23:20 |
| kamil_ | Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Not running within active session) | 23:21 |
| kamil_ | can someone help me with that? | 23:21 |
| gimpy253 | chemical-death: Let me boot back into a Cd to try it. | 23:21 |
| Harry_Slaughter | a3Dman, it's not a nickname :) and in love with ubuntu after only one day... bye bye fedora | 23:21 |
| bculp | Im trying to set a static ip on 10.04 | 23:21 |
| bculp | it sets but the DNS resolve.conf | 23:21 |
| bculp | gets overwritten | 23:21 |
| a3Dman | Harry_Slaughter, same, I wanted a stable desktop that's the only reason I use ubuntu | 23:21 |
| bculp | everytime someone logs in or out | 23:21 |
| bculp | and sometimes on reboot | 23:22 |
| bculp | is there a way to make the resolve.conf not get wiped out after setting teh static in network interfaces? | 23:22 |
| Harry_Slaughter | a3Dman, i did go a bit crazy and install compiz-fusion though :) that's pretty sick too, but it also doesn't seem 100% stable | 23:22 |
| FloridaGuy | is the linux-firmware-nonfree 1,8......is that the same as like kernel-firmware-extra....in mandriva nonfree repo | 23:22 |
| owd95 | Harry_Slaughter: what graphic card do you have? i'm very happy that compiz works with my ati card :D | 23:23 |
| lov255 | I finally got Ubuntu reinstalled after attempt #12 - it appears there is no partician program that detects /dev2 and /dev3 - so everytime I tried to load it, it would use the 2GB alliocated to one of them, I had to pop in a Vista CD, NTFS format and then reinstall Ubuntu before it worked again | 23:23 |
| bculp | is there support help in here? | 23:23 |
| Harry_Slaughter | owd95, unfortunately my laptop has an nvidia card, which is always hell to deal with on linux... until now... ubuntu simply did the right thing after giving me the OSS speech :) | 23:24 |
| DasEi | bculp: yes, resolv.conf changes, and takes it's info from the modem/router | 23:24 |
| DasEi | bculp: where did you set the static ip ? | 23:24 |
| gimpy253 | chemical-death: update-rc.d said it died at line 57 | 23:24 |
| bculp | in network interfaces | 23:24 |
| DasEi | bculp: so what's your problem now ? | 23:25 |
| mcphail | bculp: /etc/network/interfaces ? | 23:25 |
| bculp | yes | 23:25 |
| bculp | I did the standard setup there | 23:25 |
| bculp | and the static is working | 23:25 |
| bculp | but I need to set the DNS and not have it wiped out | 23:25 |
| lov255 | Now that I have a fresh install of Uduntu any suggestions on what I should install right off the bate? I am doing Updates right now | 23:25 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | My DVD+-RW drive will only see DVD discs and not any purchased or burned CDs at all. I'm not sure if its a hardware or software issue. | 23:25 |
| lov255 | BTW 10.04 | 23:25 |
| DasEi | bculp: you could make the resolv.con non-writeable | 23:26 |
| owd95 | Harry_Slaughter: great :) | 23:26 |
| bculp | is that the standard way to do it? | 23:26 |
| bculp | if I set a DNS server seems wierd something would overwrite it | 23:26 |
| ytttg | Hi, everyone. Need help... I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my laptop and when i click on the wireless icon on the taskbar, there's no available wifi connections. How do i setup my wifi on my laptop? | 23:26 |
| DasEi | bculp: why do you need a DNS other your connection suggests ? | 23:26 |
| bculp | I dont know how that is discovered | 23:27 |
| mcphail | bculp: I think NetworkManager overwrites it. If you add your interfaces to /etc/network/interfaces NetworkManager should leave them alone | 23:27 |
| rebirth | DasEi: the rosegarden install completed | 23:27 |
| lov255 | ytttg: I have been trying to do this for over 24 hours now | 23:27 |
| hiexpo | ytttg, what wireless card you have | 23:27 |
| === ted__ is now known as stercor | ||
| bculp | basiclly this is in a DMZ | 23:27 |
| bculp | i did set them in there | 23:27 |
| bculp | i figured it might be network manager | 23:27 |
| gimpy253 | How do I disable X11 from starting on boot via command line on 10.04 server? | 23:27 |
| DasEi | rebirth: rosegarden | 23:27 |
| bculp | so its not the "auto etho0" | 23:28 |
| stercor | I built GnuPG 2.0.16 and now the computer won't get to the login screen. | 23:28 |
| bculp | overwriting it | 23:28 |
| ytttg | i'm not sure what wirelss card i have. give me a sec i will try to figure it out | 23:28 |
| mcphail | bculp: i vaguely remember having to nuke the "resolvconf" package in the past as well. Do you have it installed? | 23:28 |
| anubis | anyone know a good torrent-client to integrate into xbmc? | 23:28 |
| bculp | i dont think so | 23:28 |
| bculp | I saw someone said to go into etc/resolveconf/base whatever | 23:28 |
| stercor | I suspect that some low-level function got replaced and segfaults --- Thunderbird, for example. | 23:28 |
| bculp | and change the file there and the DNS would stick | 23:28 |
| bculp | but I dont have those dirs | 23:28 |
| bculp | so I assume not | 23:28 |
| lov255 | hiexpo: I have a WUSB100, trying to install into 10.04 on a Dell Latitude | 23:29 |
| DasEi | bculp: also can set it in interfaces, al ine like : dns-nameservers 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 | 23:29 |
| mcphail | bculp: apt-cache policy resolvconf will tell you | 23:29 |
| rebirth | DasEi: it launched | 23:29 |
| FloridaGuy | how do i choose between my wired internet conection and my wireless | 23:29 |
| chemical-death | gimpy253: look for /etc/inittab and change the runlevel. maybe it works. be sure you choose the /etc of the installed system not the cd/dvd | 23:29 |
| bculp | ok cool | 23:29 |
| bculp | i like the sound of setting it in interfaces | 23:29 |
| bculp | Ill try that | 23:29 |
| DasEi | rebirth: with the usb plugged, can you select it ? ( the midi tab) | 23:30 |

| DasEi | !runlevel | gimpy253 | 23:34 |
| ubottu | gimpy253: 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. | 23:34 |

| rebirth | DasEi: whoops hold on | 23:34 |
| === Toby is now known as Guest33643 | ||

| DasEi | !upstart | gimpy253 | 23:35 |
| ubottu | gimpy253: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 23:35 |
| lov255 | !root | 23:35 |
| 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 | 23:35 |
| mcphail | FloridaGuy: network manager makes the decision for you. If your wire is plugged in it will use wired | 23:35 |

| gimpy253 | DasEi: Thanks, I'll give that a try. | 23:37 |
| mcphail | FloridaGuy: there may be a package somewhere I suppose, but network manaer has a habit of stomping over anything else. An alternative is to add the cards to /etc/network/interfaces and bring them up and down from the shell | 23:37 |

| ikonia | *!*@gateway/web/*$#ubuntu-proxy-users | 23:43 |
| DasEi | ilyekkakai: should work with the getdeb version, but can also try the ppa: | 23:43 |
| MorpheusXNL | davaldi if it is windows bootmanager you can delete the linux partition and edit your windows 7 bootmanager. if the other way around be careful. because when you remove linux it will not recover your boot manager you have to put in your windows dvd and run startup recovery to get your bootmanager back. | 23:44 |

| maquis | mcphail: if i do a remove --purge on cups and then re-install it, will that re-create the config files to their default state? | 23:53 |
| ilyekkakai | DasEi, ok... handbrake failed. could not open the audio stream of source file. | 23:53 |
| theoctagon | lov255: sudo apt-get might be what you want | 23:53 |

| maquis | thanks for the info about ubuntu-desktop | 23:54 |
| DasEi | ilyekkakai: so only thing I can think of is use audacity to re-record it from the playing vm then ;-) | 23:54 |
| DasEi | !info audacity | 23:54 |

| mcphail | maquis: make sure you reinstall ubuntu-desktop before any distribution upgrade | 23:54 |
| Robin2 | MorpheusXNL: After typing that, it says "Hardware Lister (lshw) - B.02.14" and then lists off various usage, formats, options | 23:54 |
| DasEi | tim_: and further, paste your sources.list, another error there | 23:55 |

| ytttg | hiexpo, im trying to connect to my wireless router | 23:56 |

| theoctagon | just finished maintenance window in office - going to take a nap now - rock on guys - bye | 23:57 |
| BluesKaj | maquis, i think removing cups from /var/log/ will remove any previous configurations, but I'm not sure if that's the proper procedure, so proceed at your own risk. | 23:57 |
| dustball | hello there. i try to add a starter to the panel but either it says childprocess cannot be opened or it says java hasnt found some files. (second due to the java-app being somewhere on my desktop). the launch-command is "cd /home/cyrus/Desktop/JParanoia\(1.31.1\)/ && java -jar JParanoia\(1.31.1\).jar > /home/cyrus/Desktop/out.txt 2>&1" which works fine for the regular terminal but somehow not for the app-starter from the panel | 23:57 |
| Robin2 | if I write that* | 23:57 |
| annie | Hello again room. question... for some reason my wifi connection seems to drop from time to time. I'm right next to the router. Is there some Linux magic to keep it open or something more dependable to reconnect automatically if it drops? | 23:57 |
| maquis | BluesKaj: really? I didn't think /var/log actually changed anything. That's an interesting idea. I'll try it if the remove doesn't work (or maybe while doing the remove) | 23:57 |
| MorpheusXNL | Robin2: is this your only drive | 23:57 |
| maquis | BluesKaj: thanks | 23:57 |
| Robin2 | I believe I only have one drive, yeah. | 23:58 |
| DasEi | tim_:call that paste in your browser, too , see line 56 | 23:58 |
| BluesKaj | maquis , it can be risky , i tried it with vlc and was never able to get the gui back | 23:58 |
| MorpheusXNL | as i understand correct 1 linux partition and one ntfs partition | 23:58 |
| DasEi | tim_:gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list | 23:58 |
| rainrain | how do i get from the help section in nano back to the file which i've edited but not saved yet | 23:58 |
| DasEi | tim_: delete or comment (#) that line, close gedit | 23:59 |
| Robin2 | MorpheusXNL: sorry, I am only booting this from the CD. | 23:59 |
| Robin2 | If that makes things clearer at all. | 23:59 |
| DasEi | tim_: say when done | 23:59 |
| MorpheusXNL | Robin2: lol that is usefull info :P | 23:59 |
| maquis | BluesKaj: okay. thanks for the warnign | 23:59 |
| Robin2 | Yeah, my hard drive failed, I'm booting from the CD to access the hard drive. Sorry I didn't make that clear. | 23:59 |
