MorpheusXNLRobin2: and you are in the live dekstop environment and the drive is not mentioned in your my computer.00:00
ytttgthe wirelss router is a westell 7501. the laptop wireless card is Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1000 802.11b/g/n wireless LAN,00:00
Robin2MorpheusXNL: That's it exactly. I'm on the desktop with the terminal open, because it doesn't appear.00:01
DasEitim_: done ?00:01
tim_DasEi: done. what was wrong with it?00:01
DasEitim_: http://pastebin.com/vKEd3fC800:01
DasEitim_: outdated version, wrong key00:01
tim_DasEi: K00:02
MorpheusXNLthe fact that you do not get any listing of a harddrive or device means that it is so broken that even your computer BIOS doesn't recognize it. Can you check if your machine's does recognize the drive00:02
DasEitim_: that's one command in one line00:02
Robin2How should I go about that?00:02
maquismcphail: looks like complete uninstall/reinstall may have worked00:02
maquismcphail: thanks a ton!00:02
DasEitim_: the paster just divorced it00:02
tim_DasEi: OK00:03
rebirthDasEi: i am back, but the device still does not show up in my pulse audio volume control00:03
mcphailmaquis: good stuff!00:03
MorpheusXNLreboot your machine and most of the time you can press a F button to enter setup and look in there for info about your harddrive. what brand of machine do you have00:03
Robin2I have a Dell Studio 15.00:03
DasEitim_: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade00:03
MorpheusXNLon dell machine's it is F200:03
DasEitim_: shall throw no more errors now00:03
rebirthDasEi: are we sure the usb device is showing up? could it be a problem with the usb?00:04
tim_DasEi: thanks for the help!00:04
annieAny ideas on how to keep my wifi from dropping?00:04
MorpheusXNLif you check that and get back and post the outcome we can look at things further.00:04
Robin2MorpheusXNL: okays, will do. Thank you.00:04
DasEirebirth: sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer pavucontrol00:05
Robin2MorpheusXNL: on "Device Info", it states "Primary Hard Drive = 320 GB HDD"00:05
TELL0which command I have to use, to know information about my video card?00:05
MorpheusXNLok so it is there according to the machine.00:06
DunasAttempting to install or load the liveDVD of Ubuntu 10.04 x64 results in a black screen about 3/4 the way into the loading sequence, the monitor declaring it has lost signal from the graphics card, and a complete inability to do much else from that point. Graphics card is an ATI HD5770. Any help?00:06
Robin2phew, so that's something.00:06

chemical-deathsarthor: yeah00:07
Laptop_furthe sound card has been located but nothing is coming out of the speakers00:07
thune3annie: sometimes running a continuous ping on the router (or through the router) helps. You might have some luck with compat-wireless (packages are in ubuntu repos): see http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download00:07

gimpy253mcphail: Yup, Ubuntu-server00:11
DasEirebirth: you said it worked before, and syslog as hwinfo found an unknown device, can re-check :  lsusb00:11
BluesKajLaptop_fur,  in the terminal type ' alsamixer ', make sure the Master, PCM, Line & CD are all unmuted ,by using the "M" key'  then turn those controls up to the max00:11

shsekwhy did it change my kernel? is that needed for cryptsetup?00:12
mcphailgimpy253: "ls -l /etc/init/?dm"00:12
DasEiLaptop_fur: the icons abbove pcm and master have to be green (showing speaker-symbols)00:12

DasEishsek: the kernel itself gets updated from time to time, that's normal00:13
Laptop_furgreen then whit and red00:13
rebirthDasEi: lsusb - list USB devices?00:14
anniethune3: how would I set up the 'ping' thing you stated? I know how to ping, but not how to set one up to keep the conenction active (if that's the problem/solution)00:14
shsekDasEi, wouldn't it cause issues when a new version of it is out?00:14
DasEiLaptop_fur: it's above the bars , the two little speakers, you can click them00:14
shsekDasEi, I've just never installed something that did it, seems kinda odd00:14
Laptop_furThey aren't showing00:14

HoNgOuRudid anyone had problems with WUSB54GC v3 ?00:17
rebirthDasEi: as soon as i type that in it displays a list of options00:17
shsekI followed a tutorial for making an encrypted filesystem and it told me to install initramfs-tools, which I think is only needed if I were trying to make the the root (/) to get mounted from an encrypted partition, which I'm not trying to00:17
Laptop_furDasei, the speakers are note showing above the bars.00:18
mcphailgimpy253: don't know what is bringing up X then... You're going to have to plung into /etc/rcwhatever directories and explore00:18
rebirthDasEi: oh i see, ok i got a list00:18
MorpheusXNLRobin2: any news00:18
rebirthDasEi: i'm going to compare when i unplug it and see what's missing00:19

DasEirebirth: type it just when re-plugged the usb :  dmesg | tail00:20
Laptop_furnope00:20
Robin2MorpheusXNL: "File System" is the only thing there00:20
DasEiLaptop_fur: so card isn't properly found/set00:21
MorpheusXNLok and if you open up a terminal and type sudo fdisk -l00:21
rebirthDasEi: when i compare the list a device called "Midiman" shows up when the device is plugged in00:21
MorpheusXNLyou should get a list if not it doesn't have your harddrive00:22
Laptop_furI used the sysinfo thing to find the card00:22

Laptop_furok00:29
Laptop_furit is installing00:29
Laptop_furok now what do I do?00:29
MorpheusXNLthen it is not there and the system doesn't recognize it. it means 1. it is broken or 2.ubuntu can't handle the disk. but in my office i have a lot of dell machines running ubuntu. so i think you should bring your drive to a recovery company and maybe they can get your data00:29
rebirthDasEi: so it looks like the usb device is being seen in some regard, do you have any other ideas or is this a deadend?00:30
Robin2Yeah, if that's the only option, perhaps it's best to go without, and start again.00:30

DasEishsek: alt+F2  , enter gnome-terminal01:29
laptop_fursorry I was away01:29
shsekI got to "Ubuntu installer main menu" by pressing ESC, than choose "Execute a shell"01:29
laptop_fur laptop_fur: then the volume out put is the peroblem from the sound device, look in drivers from the sound device and complie somthing with a higher output   | How do you do this?01:30
shsekthune3, no, its Ubuntu Server01:30
DasEishsek: in gnome-terminal :  sudo fdisk -l01:30
chrispitzerok - upstart vs supervisord for managing wsgi services - any opinions?01:30
Just_Drnknoasklaptop_fur: reference my nick, I honestly have no clue01:30
shsekDasEi, I don't think I can get to gnome-terminal... can I?01:30
Jordan_UDasEi: I think he's using the alternate install CD.01:30
laptop_furbtw, the card came with the laptop. I dont know how it couldnt be in the right place01:31
DasEiJordan_U: heh01:31
shsekDasEi, just to make it clear: I'm on the Ubuntu Server CD installer, I pressed ESC, got to "Ubuntu installer main menu", choosed "Execute a shell" and got 'After this message, you will be running "ash", a Broune-shell clone'01:31
DasEishsek: are you using the alternate cd ?01:31
Just_Drnknoasklaptop_fur: it came with Ubuntu installed?01:31
Zvezdabrb01:31
laptop_furhuh no01:32
laptop_furIt came with vista01:32
DasEishsek: ic, no there that won't work, I assumed you where in a live-cd environment01:32
sebelloutstanding.  installing a new o/s has apparently made me lose all confidence in my pc troubleshooting abilities....  GAH01:32
macosebell: just reframe it01:32
sebelldvd drives work just fine.  when in doubt, reboot.01:32
chemical-deathshsek: i guess it would be easier to download a ubuntu desktop 9.10 if it's the version you use. start your from that cd and do all other thing we told you before01:32
macosebell: you had *windows* troubleshooting skills, but not general-to-all-computers ones...01:33

neil_dwhen I startup openoffice workprocessor and try to use the 'tools->bibliographt database" menu option OpenOffice crashes... is there something I need to install to make this work?01:35
macosome people just need to check email, web browse, etc... and they shouldnt have problems. others need to do HD video editing, and then... well, Ubuntu Studio exists, but i dont know what apps to use :P01:35
shsekI'm on BusyBox's built-in shell, ash, from the Ubuntu Server installion disk01:35
chemical-deathshsek: try it with the correct live cd of your version you have installed. it would make it easier01:35
DasEishsek:  a standard live environment would make that easier, you neither have a disk around or a working os to burn one ( or use a usb-stick , if the box supports booting it)01:36
Just_Drnknoaskmaco: errrm like me who needs to hook up a wireless internet USB card to his laptop WUSB100 Linksys01:36
bofh80Just_Drnknoask: Vista is more like a dog with rabies, pls.01:36
shsekDasEi, I'm on a laptop without a CD burner, and don't have any usb flash disk I can use :S01:36

Niglopok th0r i am getting the same error, what showed you it was an error with like 20 and 282?01:37
Just_Drnknoaskmaco: This card is my Cheta and he is not going to run away!01:37
DasEishsek: and the installed ubuntu does what at bootup ?01:37
macoJust_Drnknoask: like i said "depending on hardware support" ... USB is very hit-or-miss. built-ins are better supported (more testers --> more bug reports --> more fixes)01:37
th0rNiglop: not an error, duplication of definitions. It appears the table beginning at line 282 is a duplicate of the table at line 2001:37
laptop_furwhat does permission denied mean?01:38
shsekDasEi, <shsek> I installed initramfs-tools, it made some kernel changes (http://pastie.org/1087245.txt?key=tcpk0140qpqvpqmagohww). Than I realized I don't actually need it, and removed it, which displayed some errors (that I don't have). Now, after a restart, I'm getting "Error 15: file not found. Press any key to continue...". When I do press a key I get the boot menu, and every option causes the same error (other than memtest of course)01:38
Niglopth0r»  there is no line 282 :s01:38
bofh80"the computer says no"01:38
DasEilaptop_fur: on which command ?01:38
Niglopit goes up to 262 th0r01:38
laptop_fur/usr/share/doc/alsa-base/driver/ALSA-Configuration.txt.gz01:38
Just_Drnknoaskmaco: but I do not need such a laptop for Ubuntu...01:38
macolaptop_fur: thats not an executable file01:38
th0rNiglop: there is in the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/476422/01:38
laptop_furugh01:38
macolaptop_fur: thats a text file. you read it...01:38
shsekDasEi, seems like its installed by default, and by removing it I caused some issues01:38
macolaptop_fur: zless /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/driver/ALSA-Configuration.txt.gz01:39
bofh80it's a read only gzip file, you need to unzip it somewhere else . or do what he said :)01:39
Just_Drnknoaskmaco: ?  .gz is like .zip?  Use 7zip and extract?01:39
macoJust_Drnknoask: id give a live cd of 10.10 Alpha 3 a try. it has a newer kernel, so hardware support should be improved01:39
DasEishsek: ic, so need an updategrub and maybe initramfs,  really, this needs a live environment or hook up the hd to another box01:39
bofh80the whole /usr dir's are readonly01:39
Niglopoh th0r  i think that one repeats itself.. i must have accidently pasted it twice, but i fixed that it only shows once now.01:39
Niglopth0r» what is the problem on line 20?01:39
th0rNiglop: the one I am looking at goes to line 52501:39
macoJust_Drnknoask: yes it is like zip, but zless is a program for reading compressed data without having to unzip/gunzip/bz2unzip it first01:39
bofh80unless you sudo / or log in as root01:39
thune3neil_d: according to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/588306 and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1506450 , installing package openoffice.org (not installed by default) will fix the problem01:40
th0rNiglop: if you deleted the table at line 282 then there is no problem at line 20. But I do have a question about your definitions of 'time'01:40
shsekDasEi, will on old Ubuntu Desktop install CD help or I need the current/a recent version?01:40
macoJust_Drnknoask: if 10.10 doesnt have support for it yet, there's still 2 months to get it fixed before 10.10 is released. definitely file a bug report01:40

Just_Drnknoaskmaco: any suggestions of any cards we know alread work with 10.04?01:41
Jordan_Ushsek: An old CD will work fine as long as it supports ext.01:41
shsekDasEi, someone here told my the error I got ("Erro 18: ...") is implying I'm using grub-legacy01:41
th0rNiglop: according to the lua script the arg is whatever you are calling in the config, but the arguments you use in the config (%A, %B,etc) aren't all defined in the lua script. But remember...I haven't actually worked with the circular meters in conky or the lua script myself01:41

DasEishsek: so is there any live cd around you can boot ? so least we cann pull down the if and whens ?01:42
thune3neil_d: please do01:42
Just_Drnknoaskmaco: if I call Lynksys they would say they do not support Ubuntu right?01:42
Jordan_Ushsek: All that's needed is a live environment that can mount your root and /boot filesystems.01:42
DasEishsek: and waht a system you're talking off from now ?01:42
tktiddlecan I delete the entire contents of /tmp safely?01:42
th0rNiglop: I think it is a result of calling {time %A, %d %B %Y} without telling the lua script what those parameters are01:42
laptop_furugh01:42
macoJust_Drnknoask: keep in mind, most shops will let you return something if it doesnt work with linux, so you can try anything green on that list and if it turns out not to work you can return it01:43
hjstso it looks like 10.04 Netbook edition has compositing disabled? I can't change any options in "Visual Effects" in the Appearances prefs - is there some way to enable compositing? my machine handles it fine in Windows01:43

macoJust_Drnknoask: the webpage i linked01:43
shsekDasEi, just found some old Ubuntu 7.04 (Desktop) CD, and I didn't quite understand the second question01:44
macoJust_Drnknoask: there's a person who keeps track of linux support for every model and revision of wireless card he or she comes across01:44
macoJust_Drnknoask: they provide their email address on there for corrections to be sent in01:44
th0rNiglop: I think you have to define a 'time' element in the settings table that tells lua how to draw {time %A, %d %B %Y}01:44
laptop_furI hate it when help documents do not explain what to do01:44
Just_Drnknoaskmaco: KK I will do, Walmart is geting thi card back an do not even know why I bought from Walmart....which company...Boradband or etc....would you suggest?01:44
DasEishsek: so boot it and come back in here, so we can find some answers about your system01:44

Niglopok thanks th0r01:45
DasEishsek: second was, what a kinda os are you currently talking from ?01:45
laptop_furI have no idea what that file is and how it is supposed to help me01:45
macoJust_Drnknoask: check the page... and hmm lemme try phoning a friend who has a USB card that works01:45
th0rNiglop: it would start with name='time' and arg='%A, %d %B %Y'01:45
Just_Drnknoasklaptop_fur: Half of this adventure in Linux is development and figuring out...which is the reason I did not just return this card01:45
Just_Drnknoaskmaco: thanks01:45
th0rNiglop: or you might define a separate entity for each of those args one at a time01:45
DasEirebirth : back on desktop now ?01:45
NiglopI am not familier with lua th0r :(01:46
NiglopI just put ''time' and arg='%A, %d %B %Y' in the script?01:46

laptop_furcool01:47
DasEishsek: so boot live cd in server01:47
th0rNiglop: each entity in the settings table tells conky how to draw a circular 'gauge'. The problem I think is that you are trying to draw something you haven't defined yet...a gauge for {time %A, %d %B %Y}01:47
macoJust_Drnknoask: thats not how it works01:47
shsekhmm, I wonder if I can open bash from inside of Gnome without a mouse01:47

DunasAttempting to install or load the liveDVD of Ubuntu 10.04 x64 results in a black screen about 3/4 the way into the loading sequence, the monitor declaring it has lost signal from the graphics card, and a complete inability to do much else from that point. Graphics card is an ATI HD5770. Any help? At all? :C02:00
LinuxPhreak1I ask because it is been going on for about 27 hours now02:00
shsekDasEi, any idea how I could do that from command line?02:00
shsekthere should be some fdisk -l | pastebin thingy that outputs the URL02:00
fahdianwizard: yes, i ask about how to change grub IMAGE(pict)02:00
rebirthDasEi: done02:00
fahdianwizard:the default one is only black right?02:01
DasEirebirth: at next reboot, when grub starts loading, press left shift,  choose second entry (recovery mode)  to get to that init 1 GUI  (dpkg and netroort/ root  there)02:01
ianwizardfahd: oooooohhhhhh, I thought you meant something else.  you're talking about the image behind the grub boot menu, right?02:01
DasEirebirth: sudo reboot02:01
fahdianwizard: yes. :D02:01
shsekDasEi, I can tell you what I have there, it'll be easier for me - /dev/sda1-/dev/sda3 is my external hard-drive three ext3 partitions, which the live-cd mounted automatically02:01
neil_dDunas: I believe the LiveCD has quite a few optional parameters you could try.. like vesa mode.02:02
DasEishsek: can just call pastebin.com in browser and copy from terminal to it02:02
ianwizardfahd: the default is none at all,  and you computer monitor is black.  I don't know how to change it, but you could probably find it on google02:02
rebirthDasEi: and then enter "service gdm restart"?02:02
DasEishsek: ah, no mouse02:02
shsekDasEi, I don't have a mouse :\02:02
shsekyeah02:02
ianwizardfahd: start with something like "grub background image"02:02
DasEirebirth: first dpkg, then from cmd line service....02:02
shsekDasEi, /dev/hdc1, /dev/hdc2 and /dev/hdc5 (3 and 4 are missing) is my internal hard-drive with ubuntu on it, /dev/hdc1 is 'Linux LVM', /dev/hdc2 is 'Extended' and /dev/hdc5 is 'Linux'02:02
fahdianwizard: i have been searching it and i found it. but i dont know how to change permission to copy .jpg file to bootloader folder?02:03
shsekwhich is odd, as this hard drive is named "/dev/sdaX" usually02:03
bofh80Dunas: the standard way around this i believe (without googling around) will be to use the alternate CD to do the install02:03
DasEirebirth: if apt won't connect in dpkg,  then call netroot one time, go back to miniGUI  by entering exit, then update completly, then start gdm02:03
ianwizardWhat command should I use to change to owner on all of the folders, and files in my home dir (to my username, rather than root)  I've been using chmod -R username /home/username  but that doesn't seem to be working now.02:04
ianwizardfahd: use sudo02:04
rebirthDasEi: a little confused but i'll see what i can do02:04
fahdianwizard:not working :(02:04
ianwizardfahd: sudo cp image.jpg /boot/grub/image.jpg02:04

gimpy253Still having trouble with 10.04.  How do I get into the GRUB menu at boot?  I have already tried left shift and enter as previously told, still does not work.02:06
shsekDasEi, nope, Ubuntu didn't mount it automatically (it did mount /dev/sdaX) and I get "unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'" when I try to manually do it02:06

Dr_Willisgimpy253:  i have had some desktpp machines that have issues with GRUB and USB keyboards. basically i had to use a PS2 keyboard. or make sure the Legacy USB item in the bios was enabled.02:07

DasEirebirth: worked ?02:07
gimpy253Dr_Willis: It's PS/202:07
Dr_Willisgimpy253:  shift should show the menu. or esc. I always set the grub config to always show the menu  item.02:07
DasEishsek: ls                    , your filesystem there ?02:07
gimpy253Dr_Willis: How do I set up GRUB2 to do this?  What needs changed in /etc/default/grub?02:08
shsekDasEi, I alreay tried that, I'm getting "unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'"02:08
Dr_WillisCheck the grub2 docs/wiki page. it tells you what to change in /etc/default/grub02:08

rebirthDasEi: it doesn't really show me anything ecept the ubuntu-studio loading screen02:10
bofh80i found it best to just hold shift once the bios screen showed till i got a grub menu.02:11
shsekDasEi, I can't install curl tho, I ran apt-get update and I still get 404 errors when trying to install it02:11
rebirthalright i'll try again just holding down shift the whole time02:11
DasEirebirth: that's too late, it has to be done once the bios is finished02:11
rebirthok02:11
Dr_Willisbiodegabriel:  check the mount command and what it says about the filesystem in question02:11

jdsbluedevlRoku is from January02:59
bofh80ah, that probably won't. but the roku might do it for you. are you able to set static IP information on the netflix02:59
jdsbluedevlbofh80: funny thing is, it worked fine for a while back in 9.10, and then it just stopped working a month after I installed 10.0402:59
bofh80you want to check connectivity between the two first probably03:00
bofh80ohh03:00
KE1HAjdsbluedevl, not to mention, your gonna need 2x Lan ports on the Inet box, and a DHCP "server, which Im sure your Network admins are not going to like much.03:00
bofh80that's good to know,03:00
raevolthune3: yea looks like it is loading but not functioning :(03:00
jonathan2How would I go about setting up DHCP server and tightvncserver to start automatically on boot? I'm running Ubuntu Server03:00
bofh80jdsbluedevl: does this mean you managed the dhcp server ok last time ?03:00
jdsbluedevlbofh80: I didn't set up a dhcp server03:01
bofh80jdsbluedevl: then where did the netflix get it's IP ?03:01
peepingtomCan most devices use link-local connections or is that more of an avahi/zeroconf thing?03:01
jdsbluedevlfrom the normal ICS setup that Ubuntu had, which doesn't work anymore with my computer03:01
peepingtomjdsbluedevl: I missed the first part of your conversation, are you just trying to share an internet connection between 2 devices?03:01
thune3raevol: it's no substitute for vsyncing stuff. what are you trying to fix with it?03:01
raevolconky03:02
jdsbluedevlpeepingtom: yes, and the two ways Ubuntu wants me to do it aren't working03:02
FoxhoundZWhat happened to Ubuntu?03:02
raevolhmm, this forum post seems to indicate it might be a xinerama problem...03:02
jonathan2is anyone able to help me?03:02
bofh80peepingtom: he has to use his ubuntu to ICS a connection for his netflix box, but basically just enabling ICS .03:02
mek||mallocjonathan: Your init.d scripts03:02
peepingtomjdsbluedevl: you mean the method in network-manager were you use an ipv4 "link-local" connection?03:02
KE1HABut ICS or not the second bx still need an IP-Addy.03:03
mek||mallocjonathan2: Add it to your /etc/init.d/rc.local file03:03
jdsbluedevlpeepingtom: link-local?  the wiki says "Shared to other computers"03:03
KE1HAAnd that has to come from some sort of DHCPD03:03
KE1HAbe it the UNI's DHCPD or the UB-Box DHCPD03:03
=== laptop_fur is now known as laptop_dragon
jonathan2so just add the two commands that I use to start them?03:04
bofh80KE1HA: i never thought, but with his setup, ICS is probably relaying his DHCP requests03:04
peepingtomjdsbluedevl: Well I guess that way is easier actually. Can your netflix box be set up with a static IP or does it need to receive an IP automatically through DHCP?03:04
KE1HAand if you hang a DHCPD on a live Network,  without the IP tables set up properly, your gonna give out lots of IP addresses.03:04
jdsbluedevlpeepingtom: dunno03:04
mek||mallocjonathan2: That is correct, though I suggest you copy the file to a backup like .rc.local just in case03:04

Blue1not ssh?03:14
myke2The driver is the one which it can't be compiled in linux-2.6.32-2103:14
Blue1AGG03:15
reggibofh80: that is good to hear then. you are referring to /etc/dhcpd.conf right? its just that I installed dhcp3 and it has it's own config file /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf which is probably where the conflict is happening.03:15

trapper_pandaWiesshund so does that mean that i'm screwed? or is there a way to fix this?  should I try reinstalling linux?03:41
FloridaGuyKE1HA, no...im downloading from...    http://mirror.cc.columbia.edu/pub03:42
KE1HAFloridaGuy, Ubuntu is saying, they want to controll the outflow to keep one person from overloading the DL server if the make a mistake or something and DL 20 at a time or something. Simplified answer but ya get the drift.03:42
WiesshundFloridaGuy Ubuntu is saying "i have X total bandwidth, and your share is Y?03:42
armysister?03:42
annieilovefairuz: hope you don't think I'm hounding you, But I've changed the port I'm calling to 8282. but still get the same message. I ran netstat and I don't see anything on port 808003:43

KE1HAFloridaGuy, then they have throttled it as well, allot of image sites do that, especially if here bandwidth limited.03:43
FloridaGuyim not downloading from ubuntu mirrors....just cant get my full download speed from other mirrors with ubuntu distro03:43
FoolishOwlI'm using 10.04, and I notice I don't have the "Ubuntu Partner Repositories" listed. I was looking at /etc/apt/sources.list, and it looks like it's a bit sloppy, with comments out of sync with its contents and so forth.03:44
KE1HAFloridaGuy, I'd recommedn another mirroe then.03:44
WiesshundFloridaGuy mirros can have throttles too, per directory as well03:44
trapper_pandaWiesshund apparently only under windows. this is my friend's computer. I think it worked under Wubi.03:44
xanguaFoolishOwl:  tried the !partner factoid¿03:44

ubottuCanonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" »03:45

jpag87aHi, 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).

anniemaco: exactly03:55
pilI guess everyone is so busy .. :(03:55
joe_gubatsacarlson: i want to...but my current website uses php403:56
ilovefairuzannie: sshd (the openssh server) is bound to these ports on the CLIENT (why? perhaps you've mistakenly edited the config files on client not server) .. sudo service ssh stop ... or remove openssh-server at all from client03:56
coz_pil,   I didnt see your question03:56
sacarlsonjoe_gubat: you sure it won't work with php5?03:56
Wiesshundpil in general linux doesnt require defragging03:56
bofh80pil: no defrag no. thank goodness you don't need to defrag anymore :)03:56
Wiesshundpil and currently there isnt s stable "defragger" for ext4, aside from dd03:57
coz_pil,   ah defragging... well  although linux fragments  it doesn do it in the same way windows does...the files are written to the drive in an different fashion03:57
annieilovefairuz: ohhhh... Dang.. Yeah. I was switching out the laptop because I'm going to use it as the server. KK... so edit my config files here to the default ports.03:57
KE1HAYeah, I get the whole proxy thing. Not here to argue just think that's the wrong way to go, but stand corr on ssl / ssh.03:57
pilWiesshund, bofh80: are you serious? No defragment is necessary?03:57
joe_gubatyes i have tried it... the cms wont load on php503:57
sacarlsonjoe_gubat: try it if it fails with your site then worry about it03:57
annieI learn something every day I'm in this room03:57
coz_pil,  he is serious03:57
pil:) Thank God03:57
pilthanks alot03:57
pil:)03:57
thune3pil: the standard answer around here is that you don't need it. This is a function of not having defrag tools03:58
DWarrior1someone help me understand this poster: http://images.easyart.com/i/prints/lg/1/6/164339.jpg03:58
sacarlsonjoe_gubat:  ok what is cms?  maybe that's what we need to fix03:58
joe_gubati am planning to migrate it to php503:58
Wiesshundonly time i see a baddly fragged drive in linux is when someone is using torrent to get large video files etc, and thats more a fault of the torrent app03:58
pilthune3: ok03:58
coz_pil,   also no need for anitvirus  and spyware utilites ..at least at the moment03:58
DWarrior1I can maybe see how the rock wins, but the tree?03:58
joe_gubatit is a customize cms...03:58
pilcoz_: I hope it will stay that way :P03:58
pil:)03:58
drew212coz_: what if the SGD doesnt work?03:58
thune3pil: another standard answer, but malware can hit ubuntu as well03:58
FoolishOwlpil, I gather that creating a defragmentation utility has been on the Linux community's to-do list for ages. But, fragmentation isn't much of a problem, so it stays low on the to-do list.03:59
sacarlsonjoe_gubat: I don't know what cms is so guess can't help you there03:59
coz_drew212,   sgd?  I am bad at abreviations :)03:59
ilovefairuzannie: stop the server on the client, you don't need it for the proxy to work03:59
drew212coz_: super grub disk03:59
drew212its grub, on a disk...03:59
pilFoolish0wl: I got it thanks :)03:59
coz_drew212,  oh  ok... ah it should however to be sure about the procedures with grub2  I would go to the #grub channel03:59
WiesshundAny OS can be hit by malware or virus, but linux is harder to target and the enduser usualy a bit more savvy. So people tend not to write viruses for it04:00
annieilovefairuz: right. But after I get all this sorted, the client is gonna be the server. Long story.04:00
synisterYOu dont need a FTP client, linux comes to with "Connect to server" built in04:00
RenatoSilvaHow to change grub2's fonts?04:00
RenatoSilvaHow to change grub2's fonts? bold, italic, family name etc04:00
bofh80Wiesshund: but that gap closes with cross platform browser plugins like flash and java etc . just as exploitable on any OS they run on04:00
ilovefairuzannie: ok but for the time being turn it off to not confuse yourself04:00
coz_RenatoSilva,  oooo  tough question for me to answer... I am still getting used to grub2 :)  but there are a ton of how to's online and you can go to the #grub channel04:01
joe_gubatdo you have any idea in setting up LAMPhp4 using the source package?04:01
drew212coz_:  im pretty sure its a problem with my xorg.conf...04:01
Wiesshundpil if youve actualy fragmented a linux partition bad (its possible just unusual) you can defrag it perfectly with dd04:01
annieilovefairuz: yeah... just have default port 22 open in confg file now...04:01
GimpedWiesshund: also, linux gets security updates more frequently with new kernels and such04:01
coz_drew212,   still #grub channel may have some insights04:01
RenatoSilvacoz_: google is a bad guy04:01
drew212coz_: ill check after SGD, thanks man =)04:01
RenatoSilvacoz_: I guess that's impossible. Would not be surprised.04:01
coz_drew212,  no problem...let us know if you solve this ..the solution may be real helpful04:02
pilWiesshund: Ok... I hope linux stays virusless OS for ages...04:02
joe_gubatsacarlson-do you have any idea in setting up LAMPhp4 using the source package?04:02
thune3Wiesshund: i'd be in for understanding how a dd defrag would work (as I don't believe it)04:02
Wiesshundbofh80 yes and no, depends on if you like logging in as root. id say normaly the worst you are going to do is ruin one users login, which is an easy fix04:02
sacarlsonjoe_gubat: if you need to compile that old stuf http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=132976004:02
RenatoSilvacoz_: I just upgraded to grub2 but I liked the old font, I think it was just bolder04:02
collabraWiesshund: me too.04:03
joe_gubatthanks04:03
coz_pil,  most of the viruses I have seen were on the server platform  ,,,, my nephew got one for his business... but  overall I doubt it will be much of an issue   you can go to the BlackHat security sight to see what has been going on in terms of security issues with linux04:03
Wiesshundthune3 easy, remember of course you need the space to dd, when you pick up files and write them to a new fresh location, they are laid down perfect and unfragmented04:03
bofh80Wiesshund: from one point of view, root yes, but most of these things are after user data, that's accessable just by running as the user . nothing stopping it dropping a bomb in the users dir and having it launch with gnome either etc. it's not far out of reach04:03
coz_pil,     http://www.blackhat.com/04:03
collabraWiesshund: do you have a script handy?04:04
Wiesshundbofh80 that is true, no sys tem can ever be totaly secure against its owner.04:04
annieilovefairuz: THANK YOU .... it's working now. SWEET. You have saved me so much headache!04:04
pilWiesshund: I had a MacbookPro before I switched to ubuntu and the reason for switching to MacOS X because of there is no known viruses but the OS X bored me as hell... by the way the BlackHat you mean the channel here in freenode?04:04

biodegabrielcoz_ so if i do install gcc after 'build essential' will it replace the other one? Here's what I've been doing: http://pastie.org/108754504:52
ilovefairuzZEKnox: the major issue with X (and forwarding) most toolkits talk synchronously to the server (not async even though it's supported) and that hogs up the network, if you have capable machines crypto choices won't matter much04:52

biodegabrielwhompapotamus, can't install nginx, tried about 20 times.04:53
ilovefairuzZEKnox: the NX protocol (and it's Free implementations like neatx) offer the most bandwidth savings but they are more of a hassle to set up, X forwarding is simple and good enough04:54
tonsofpcshow do I make a machine fsck on reboot?04:54
abhijitGood Morning! :)04:54
naptasticbiodegabriel, installing the build-essential package will install gcc. So if you then try to install gcc, you will find it already installed.04:54
IdleOnebiodegabriel: sudo apt-get install nginx doesn't work?04:55
tonsofpcsthe free implementations are more than 'a hassle' to set up, they're near impossible.  Video editing on linux is easier.04:55
biodegabrieli need to compile it for passenger, can i pass special arguments to 'apt-get'?04:55
abhijit!fsck | tonsofpcs04:55
ubottutonsofpcs: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot04:55

sacarlsonfour2zero_ubu:  looks good so at reboot or restart network it should work05:01
ilovefairuzEnigmati1Coder: that works when you're trying to install a single .deb file and you want deps to be resolved and installed automatically, apt-get build-dep installs the packages that are need to BUID/compile the package, not run it05:01

monokromebofh80: I immediately remove pulse audio after installing Ubuntu.05:13
macobofh80: its a layer on top of alsa05:13
monokromeand it "wraps" alsa05:13
macobofh80: pulse does not contain drivers. half of alsa is drivers. half is a set of over-engineered low-level libraries that application developers tend to use wrongly :P05:13

ilovefairuzNiglop: check it's settings panel, i think it has a similar module05:18
Niglopilovefairuz» I just want to know if I can add it to my conky script05:18

four2zero_ubuwell, when i restarted with static ip configured, network manager did see it as 192.168.0.122 connected successfully, but no websites could be found.05:19
LinuxFetusHey what's the recommended PDF editor for Ubuntu?05:19
ilovefairuzchek: they probably exploited a php script05:19
LinuxFetusOh, I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 32 bit, if that is relevant.05:19
timhey I have a windows Vista computer I am trying to share files with Ubuntu 10.04 computer, I had them sharing at one point but I try to put the user name and password in on ubuntu and it doesn't let me in. is there something i'm missing?05:20
LinuxFetustim: Are you connecting them via an Ethernet cable or what?05:20
jasonwryanLinuxFetus: I've used pdfedit - it was acceptable05:20
four2zero_ububut when i changed via network connections, and selecting the IPv4 settings tab > Method back to Automatic addresses only, i am able to get online.05:20
dontbuyi can run them at once, both 32-bit and 64-bit05:21
monokromebofh80: These index= values aren't related to the default card. The are for disabling certain modules from being used as the default.05:21
four2zero_ubuhaving dhcp give me an ip, rather than setting static ip.05:21
bofh80monokrome: right, so can't you do that for your intel card?05:21
timLinuxFetus, linux fetus funny.... wireless network. I have all of my computers on the WORKGROUP05:21
monokromebofh80: There's a proper way to do this :/ I should probably try #also though05:21
ilovefairuzchek: check the versions of any cms or forum software you're using05:22
cheki'll check silverstipe cms and a froum but is there any way to trace their entry point?05:22
bofh80monokrome: i don't understand why it's not proper, you don't want your intel card to be used as default, so you mark it up here as such. if you find a better way pls let me know :) it is something that crops up from time to time05:23
monokromebofh80: Because that disables my intel card completely I think05:24
bofh80# Keep snd-pcsp from being loaded as first soundcard05:24
bofh80is the comment at the bottom. seems to be the right way05:25
ilovefairuzchek: most of this stuff is done by automated scripts now, so probably no one logged in at all, I suggest you restore a clean backup, and upgrade any software you have05:25
monokromethen I guess I just need to figure out what module the intel one is :/05:25
sacarlsonfour2zero_ubu: so at reboot it still fails to have your static address?05:25
bofh80monokrome: lsmod is a good start i guess05:26
four2zero_ubuyep, once i set the static ip, after reboot it will show in tray area wired connected but no online,05:26
monokrometrue05:26
LinuxFetusjasonjang: Is it normal for PDFedit to constantly freeze?05:27
sacarlsonfour2zero_ubu: at that point what did route show?05:27
jasonwryanLinuxFetus: no - what does top show?05:27
four2zero_ubusacarlson: i dont know !05:27
four2zero_ubui think nothing.05:28
LinuxFetusjasonwryan: Top...?  Do you mean the menu bar?  Title bar?05:28
bofh80LinuxFetus: thanks for the LOL. seriously i laughed man. PDF = Adobe = Freeze lol. no seriously is it a  fresh document your doing or opening an exiting pdf05:28
four2zero_ububut when i did ipconfig, it was configured properly.05:28
four2zero_ubujust like know.05:28
four2zero_ubunow05:28
sacarlsonfour2zero_ubu: I asume networkmanager is overwriting something at boot.  like your /etc/resolve.conf05:28
jasonwryanLinuxFetus: no, the command - it shows what's using your CPU...05:28
four2zero_ubuprob.05:28
LinuxFetusjasonwryan: Oh, do I type in "top" into the terminal?05:29
jasonwryanLinuxFetus: if pdfedit is misbehaving...05:29
jasonwryanLinuxFetus: yes05:29
bofh80resolv.conf will get overwritting periodically if dhcp is on, even if it's not used . LOLz .05:29
LinuxFetusbofh80: Yeah, it's an existing PDF... that was probably made by an automated process.05:29
bofh80LinuxFetus: try messing about with a fresh document to see if the same stuff starts happening05:29
sacarlsonfour2zero_ubu:  I just kill networkmanager when I setup a manual static conection05:30
bofh80you can also try copying the entire docuemtn into a fresh one05:30

monokromebofh80: Shouldn't matter. It's just a window manager.05:32
LinuxFetusjasonwryan: But pdfedit is taking up 98% of my CPU it says.05:32
jasonwryanLinuxFetus: no problem: is pdfedit in there?05:32

LinuxFetusjasonwryan: I'm fairly certain that a human being did not make the PDF file.  It's a sheet music file for my band and I'm pretty sure the leader has a program which allows him to specify a key and then it generates the file... And my knowledge of files made like that tell me that 1) there's usually a lot of overhead (think of exporting a Word document as an HTML file in Word) and 2) may have some measures to keep from editing it -- I05:38
LinuxFetus'm just trying to write some notes on it :/  I could always open it in GIMP, I guess... I just figured editing a PDF would be less memory intensive....05:38
macojohn38: think you could stay on topic a bit better?05:38
DasEijohn38: as said, not ubuntu-related, but you can google for cd's with extra-protection for special purposes like long-term backups, they have specialized ones concerning mechanical/optical ((sun)) resistance05:38

john38bofh80, ok thanks i'll leave05:40
maco!webmin05:40
ubottuwebmin 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.05:40
control_ok so i install it through ubuntu software center and then do ???05:41
maco!ebox | control_ this is the closest thing to webmin we have05:41
ubottucontrol_ this is the closest thing to webmin we have: ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox05:41
LinuxFetusjasonwryan: You're probably right; I will try the GIMP route...05:41
control_omg, so vsftp OR this ebox thing?05:41
jasonwryanLinuxFetus: good luck!05:41

macocontrol_: and then you asked about webmin...05:43
control_because someone said it when i asked for a ftp05:43
control_omg05:43
control_5 different people said 5 diff things05:43
monokromebofh80: Well, it doesn't work because there's no /etc/asound.conf and that's where you usually put it for alsa when it's not set up per-user05:43
ilovefairuzcontrol_: that's the case with gnu/linux, so many options, try each and pick whatever works for you05:43
bofh80control_: then i will second vsftp install it then edit /etc/vsftpd.conf and read the comments to enable what you need05:44
macocontrol_: okfine.... vsftpd and openssh-server are probably the most common ones, and probably for good reason05:44
bofh80monokrome: another ubuntu special : P05:44
control_ok i just installed vsftp, i have to now edit the .conf file and boom restart and it works?05:44

monokromeand why doesn't alsa-utils come with half the utils05:45
control_i installed ubuntu server with lamp05:45
macocontrol_: if you're using ubuntu server, openssh-server is part of the default install, i think05:45

DasEiStale_: older then 3 years, I'd start with jaunty and dualboot lucid to check06:04
bofh80maco: yes as long as he changed the home dir with the command u posted. for the user he created. but he's being confused06:04
macocontrol_: then set all those users to have /media/ftp/user1 /media/ftp/user2 etc as their home dirs06:04

specialbatsThanks06:07
control_no im used to there being a windows user, and a ftp user06:07
whompapotamuscontrol_: That is chroot is like a jail06:08
macocontrol_: you're not using windows06:08
control_like if i install filezilla server on windows, i dont have to create seperate windows users for each ftp user...06:08
bofh80maco: in typical ftp servers on windows boxes, users on the ftp server are 'virtual'06:08
control_i know im trying to get the same concept as windows ftp06:08
macocontrol_: chroot (whompapotamus spelled wrong) means "change root" literally. it means that the user cannot see what exists on the system outside their chroot06:08
DasEispecialbats: also use an extar repo for wine, the one coming with ubuntu is fine for little apps, but has nothing to do with wines real possibilities06:08

control_so in linux i cant just install a ftp server, add a FTP USER, and set his ftp "home dir" (the one he sees when he logs in) to my external drive?06:09
bofh80maco: it's similar for other networking counterparts06:09
macocontrol_: things work differently between "The Windows Way" and "Everything Else"06:09
DasEiStale_: depends on prog, some run great, others not at all06:09
bsdfreakthe windows way = point, click and crash06:09
bsdfreakhehe06:09
control_well at least the filezilla for windows works for what i need...06:10

control_all i click is add user, then add dir and set it to the home dir...06:10
bofh80maco: pam, samba, etc etc06:10

DasEispecialbats: lucid you said ?06:10
DasEispecialbats: second, repo coming06:10

macocontrol_: it can limit a user to their home dir06:14
whompapotamuscontrol_: Follow the commands at the end of the file I posted - and you are set06:14
macocontrol_: if you put their home dir on the external, everything's happy06:14

I obviously dont know what question to ask. This is the latest "stop point".06:19

JackStonerDasEi: i have wine1.2 running office 2007.06:55
WiesshundDasEi will it matter much being a wine app?06:55
DasEiWiesshund: as there are different repos set up, I think so06:56
WiesshundJackStoner do you know how long the vid is supposed to be?06:56
Ameisenso06:56
AmeisenI installed Ubuntu 10 64-bit on my test system at work06:56
AmeisenI'm the ONLY person running 64-bit there06:56
DasEiJackStoner: wine 1.2  version 1.4.... should do fine06:56
Ameiseneveryone else is running 32-bit Ubuntu 9.10, cept one person is running 32-bit Ubuntu 1006:56
Four2zeroanyone else having trouble changing to static ip ?06:57
Four2zeroon ubuntu 10.406:57
sacarlsonFour2zero: did you get my script to go static?06:57
Four2zeroI remove network manager.06:57
Four2zerono.06:57
WiesshundAmeisen i had 10.04 64-bit. i only switched to 32bit because i dont have 4gig ram06:57
Ameisenhow much RAM did you have?06:57
AmeisenYou have to remember, the extra memory access is not the only advantage 64-bit offers.06:58
AmeisenTo access 64-bit registers, you must be in long mode (64-bit)06:58
Wiesshund64bit ran fine if i singles tasked and conserved my ram (2gig)06:58
Four2zerocan you post a link, i will give it a try now that network-manager is uninstalled.06:58
Ameisenhmm/06:58
* JackStoner away 06:58
AmeisenI've never tried using a 64-bit linux kernel on a low memory system06:58
Ameisenso, it might have weird memory issues with it.06:58
sacarlsonFour2zero: this is what I use if I want to go static if already booted http://paste.ubuntu.com/476781/06:59
BossmanbetaWhenever I have mencoder encode to a FIFO file, then try to play the stream (the fifo file) with mplayer, it works fine, but only the FIRST TIME. Any subsequent time I try to play the FIFO file, Mplayer errors saying "Cannot seek backward in linear streams! Seek failed"  -- would anyone know why ?06:59
Four2zerosacarlson, do i need to make any changes ?06:59
Wiesshundit ran fine mostly, just wasnt enough memory for it is all. no errors with it or anything. a few things i couldnt find 64bit drivers/software for but thats the same with any OS07:00
sacarlsonFour2zero:  ya youl have to setup the number you used in your static stuf07:00
Ameisenunfortunately, the least RAM i've ever run a 64-bit OS on was 2gb, and that wasn't Linux07:00
Ameisenworked fine though.07:00
sacarlsonFour2zero: take out that if then stuf that was added later07:00
DasEiAmeisen: why shouldn't it07:01
Jordan_UBossmanbeta: Do you understand what a fifo is? That's exactly how fifo's will behave with any application.07:01
WiesshundAmeisen it was fine, i just wanted to run more things that i had the ram for in 64bit is all07:01
AmeisenAt work, my system has 8GiB, but by default came with a 32-bit kernel (with PAE enabled though)07:02
Four2zeroall the stuff in /etc/network/interface07:02
AmeisenSo, I could address the 8GiB (up to 64), but a single process could only use up to 407:02
BossmanbetaJordan_U, I suppose I don't exactly understand. It works only the first time, but not any subsequent time -- any way to correct/compensate for that?07:02
Ameisenwell, 2.507:02
Ameisen3.5*07:02
Jordan_UBossmanbeta: What is your actual end goal?07:02
Wiesshundwhen i got some money to waste on extra ram for home, ill spend the 10 minutes to put it back to 64bit07:02
BossmanbetaJordan_U, to stream live tv from a hauppauge card over ssh ... and I don't want to use VLC.07:03
scriptwarlockJordan_U: got ideas how to vertical flip webcam image in ubuntu?07:03
Jordan_Uscriptwarlock: No.07:03
TrentonAdamswhat's the procedure for adding raid/lvm support after the system has been installed?  I've been running lvm for a long time.  I have now pvmoved my volume group over to a raid device, rebooted, and it won't boot.  It says the devices does not exist, dropping to shell.07:03
Wiesshundscriptwarlock tip the camera upside down?07:03
scriptwarlockJordan_U: :) the quickest way but thats not the issue07:04
TrentonAdamsif I do "mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 /dev/sdb1; mdadm --assemble /dev/md1 /dev/sdb2 and drop out of the shell, the system boots normally07:04
scriptwarlockJordan_U: opps xsend07:04
BossmanbetaJordan_U, It works reliably 100% the first time... just trying to keep it working any time I try to netcat the stream on the client side07:04
scriptwarlockWeisshund: lol the quickest way :) but thats not the issue07:05
Wiesshundscriptwarlock what you trying to do?07:05
BossmanbetaJordan_U, Taking netcat out of it, doing it locally - it also fails after the 1st time. Mplayer cries with the same error.07:05
Jordan_UTrentonAdams: Run "sudo update-grub" and "sudo update-initramfs -uk all"07:05
ValenI have a mythbuntu 10.04 system thats having some weird problems, basically it seems to decide what services to start at boot pretty much randomly07:05
nimbioticsfg07:05
scriptwarlockWeisshund: i mounted my webcam upside and like to know if we have options to vertical flip07:05
ValenI'm guessing its because it is only connected by wireless and its related somehow to that coming up07:06
livingdaylightmaco, hi07:06
Wiesshundscriptwarlock not built in options that i know of, no.07:06
Valeneg this time around cron apache and postfix werent started07:06
scriptwarlockWeisshund: cheese and guvcview can do that but on messengers and anything else it was inverted i heard about vflip but dunno if it excist in lucid07:07
DasEiValen: randomly for sure not, install bum and use it for unneeded ones, and check the /etc/init/* files07:07
Jordan_UBossmanbeta: Where is the fifo and what commands are you using for mplayer and mencoder?07:07
DasEi!bum07:07
ubottuBoot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto07:07
Valenit is defiantly random07:07
Valen50% of the time I get apache07:07
Valenits a clean install07:07
Wiesshundscriptwarlock you could always try a karmic version of it and see i guess. some karmic stuff works some doesnt.07:07

DesignerGuyHelp please.... How do I enable PUT requests on my ubuntu server?07:08
scriptwarlockWeisshund: nah cant use that on my cyber shop07:08
DasEiValen: there are certain modules invoking others, lsmod can tell you more07:08
BossmanbetaJordan_U, On the server: Step 1: mkfifo teevee.avi  Step 2: mencoder /dev/video0 -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=800 -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr=128 -of avi -o ./teevee.avi07:08
Wiesshundscriptwarlock cant you rework the mount for the web cam?07:08
Valenit doesn't seem to be module related, all hardware is working fine07:09
BossmanbetaJordan_U, Step 3: mplayer ./teevee.avi07:09
livingdaylightI have a problem with Update manager: "The package 'brscan' is in an inconsistent state and needs to be resinstalled, but no archive can be found for it. Do you want to remove it now to continue?"07:09
livingdaylightWhen I click 'yes' it whirls away, but doesn't remove it. I'm offered to reinstall it. However, I cannot as dpkg complains07:09
livingdaylightits like some Catch-2207:09
BossmanbetaJordan_U, this is all local... I really want to do it with netcat, but of course it fails locally with the same error on the 2nd try... so it's an mencoder/mplayer issue not netcat.07:09
Jordan_UBossmanbeta: I don't see where ssh is coming into play, or what the advantage is to using a fifo (given that you apparently want the file to be saved on disk).07:10
livingdaylightI can not remove it07:10
BossmanbetaJordan_U, I get it working locally & with netcat only on the first try.07:10
livingdaylightor re-install it07:10
scriptwarlockWeisshund: of course i can but i have a purpose to mount like this way for the purpose of a fix location07:10
BossmanbetaJordan_U, I don't want the file saved to disk07:10
BossmanbetaJordan_U, I am trying to stream live TV to myself07:10
BossmanbetaJordan_U, But encoded to save bandwidth.07:10
scriptwarlockWeisshund: got no flips on v4l-conf07:10
Four2zerosacarlson, what needs to be edited in your script ?07:11
BossmanbetaJordan_U, I could encode it to a regular file, but in a few days I'd have huge files.. this is a thing I want to turn on and forget about and tap into the stream (fifo) on demand07:11
aruntomarubottu: i knew about update-rc.d, bum is new, thanx07:11
ubottuError: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)07:11
DasEiaruntomar: ubott.. is the channel ro-bot07:12
DasEi!brain > aruntomar07:12
ubottuaruntomar, please see my private message07:12
BossmanbetaJordan_U, SSH comes into play when trying to tap into the fifo. Fifo is a local affair .. the only way to get it to transfer on a network is via netcat (I think that's the only way...)07:12
Wiesshundscriptwarlock best suggestion i can give is to mod the mount or webcam then, if you cant flip the incoming video. Or open it up and flip the CCCD07:12
Jordan_UBossmanbeta: Your problem is that just like with a normal pipe, the command sending will quit when the command receiving quits.07:13
DasEiscriptwarlock: i think cheese has an option for it07:13
BossmanbetaJordan_U, On netcat, yes... but take netcat out of it07:13
scriptwarlockWeisshund: yeah dunno if i can add some little hacks on v4l to add flip options07:13
sacarlsonFour2zero: well you need three addresses an IP a gateway and a dns address  those all have to be changed.  you will also need a custom resolve.conf file that overwrites the one that dhcp changes07:14
TrentonAdamsJordan_U: Okay, the update-grub is obviously what I needed, seeing it added the insmod lines for me.  One other thing though.  It put my old boot partition uuid back in.07:14
Jordan_UBossmanbeta: Ass a test to illustrate this open two terminals, in one run "mkfifo test.fifo; cat > test.fifo" in the other run "cat test.fifo" and start typing into the first terminal.07:14
BossmanbetaJordan_U, this works fine when playing the fifo locally, or via netcat.. but only the first time. Then if I close mplayer (locally or via netcat) and try again (if remote, re-engaging netcat) mplayer gives that error07:14
livingdaylighthttp://pastebin.com/C1Dut4Lr07:14
TrentonAdamsJordan_U: My new boot partition is on raid.07:14
scriptwarlockDasEi: excatly but not on messengers and skype and empathy07:14
WiesshundBossmanbeta because when you stop mplayer the input stops sending07:15
Jordan_UTrentonAdams: Now ctrl+c to quit the cat that is "reading", and try typing more lines into the first terminal.07:15
choomrahey guys!  I will soon be the proud owner of a new system76 laptop, their ultraportable. I would really like to get an SSD, but they are so expensive (SSDs in general), that if I got one it would have to be a mere 40GB. This will likely be enough for my apps and system stuff, but certainly not enough for my music collection (20GB or so) and the movies that I'd want to keep on there. I do however have a computer with ample storage runn07:15
choomraLucid at home. My question is, how can I "virtually mount" the hard drive and attached drives of my Lucid computer at home on my laptop? In effect I want my own personal storage cloud. I'm open to all suggestions. I was thinking something like VPN? Thanks so much in advance!07:15
DasEiscriptwarlock: ic, then you approach is more promising, idk the needed syntax for it though07:15
TrentonAdamsJordan_U: You meant that message for someone else07:15
Jordan_UBossmanbeta: Now ctrl+c to quit the cat that is "reading", and try typing more lines into the first terminal.07:16
BossmanbetaWiesshund, so when I tell mencoder to transcode to a fifo, then play the fifo ... once I kill the player (mplayer), mencoder dies ?07:16
livingdaylight I have a problem with Update manager: "The package 'brscan' is in an inconsistent state and needs to be resinstalled, but no archive can be found for it. Do you want to remove it now to continue?"07:16
livingdaylight When I click 'yes' it whirls away, but doesn't remove it. I'm offered to reinstall it. However, I cannot as dpkg complains07:16
TrentonAdamsJordan_U: we were discussing the booting off raid07:16
scriptwarlockDasEi: tried udevadm but no vflip options07:16
livingdaylighthttp://pastebin.com/C1Dut4Lr07:16
WiesshundBossmanbeta thats the basic gist of it, thats how a fifo works07:16
Jordan_UBossmanbeta: You'll notice that the cat that is "writing" to the fifo will also quit. That is what is happening to mencoder, once mplayer stops reading mencoder quits.07:17
DasEichoomra: nas should be fastest, next samba, then ssh and ftp07:17
DasEi!nas07:17
choomra!nas | choomra07:17
Wiesshundlivingdaylight you try using synaptic package manager?07:17
BossmanbetaJordan_U, yes I see that07:17
BossmanbetaBAH HUMBUG07:17
Jordan_UBossmanbeta: Depending on what exactly you want, just putting mencoder into a while loop may solve your problem.07:17
BossmanbetaI don't want mencoder to quit !  :)07:17
livingdaylightWiesshund, update manager has thrown a red circle with a white dash, like the highway code symbol on my panel. Clicking on it its tried to resolve it.07:18
justSimplyBobI need some help Multi-booting on a Mac. The goal is OSX, XP, and Ubuntu, it is on a friends mac07:18
BossmanbetaJordan_U, I'm not super great in scripting.. not sure how to do while loops, or what condition I'd put in the while loop07:18
livingdaylightWiesshund, basically it says that I need to reinstall and/or remove brscan - but I can't07:18
Wiesshundlivingdaylight not the update manager, the package manager. you can fix broken packages etc in there07:18
choomraDasEi: thanks. Would nas do what I want it to do? Is there an easy and native way to do this in Ubuntu? (I don't need a GUI).07:18
DasEihttp://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/HOWTO:_Install_FreeNAS07:19
BossmanbetaJordan_U, and Wiesshund  you both got my idea .. I just want mencoder to remain persistent so that I can remotely run mplayer in that fifo stream at-will07:19
tasslehoffAfter installing 10.04 Grub can't find my Windows 7. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1452503&page=2 shows a solution, but will this work when my entire Ubuntu install is on an encrypted volume? /boot is not encrypted, but everything else is.07:19

Jordan_Utasslehoff: What actually happens when  you try to boot windows from grub?07:20
BossmanbetaJordan_U, What condition would I put in the while loop? I can read up on how to script a while loop07:20
DasEichoomra: unles you use a switch to connect the two boxes, need a crossovercable for this, when using 100 mb nicks, tuning their parameters can increase their thrughput massivly07:20
Wiesshundlivingdaylight can you mark it for complete removal?07:20
ilovefairuzkittenvsdinosaur: upgrading is often accompanied with unpredictable issues, just re-add it to /etc/fstab and move on ..07:21
Jordan_UTrentonAdams: You will probably want to re-install grub to the mbr as well, and reconfigure where it's installed by default on upgrades. "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" will do both.07:21
tasslehoffJordan_U: Windows isn't shown in Grub at all. I have to press 'shift' at boot to get the Grub menu.07:21

kittenvsdinosaurilovefairuz, my installation is on the same hard drive (/dev/sda), so reading is just fine. fdisk refuses to do anything with it though so I can't double check which partition is my swap (I'm guessing /dev/sda5 but eh...)07:27
chemical-deathlivingdaylight: did you try just with "sudo dpkg -i filename"07:27

I have looked as ipband and iftop but both have failed. vnStat looks very nice but does not seem to support port usage. I am running ntop on server currently but its a bit of an overkill.

ilovefairuzOY1R: or install opera and turn on "turbo" it will compress everything, but you're trade off privacy11:06
Slartilyekkakai: I've never had that happen to me.. although I've never used rhythmbox so it might be some kind of bug/feature ..11:07

ilyekkakaiSlart, ilovefairuz - well according to the prefs in easytag, it is set to write both ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags by default.... so I can't work out why RB is still showing up the old tags....11:21
ilovefairuzilyekkakai: erase both, and re-tag in RB11:22
Slartilyekkakai: perhaps it's got the tags cached so it doesn't need to read them every time it boots up.. isn't there a "refresh my music library" option? perhaps rename the file slightly so it thinks it's a new file?11:22

lucid0 or rt2870????12:36
KrisDouglasNo, the settings are correct, the problem is that the keyringhas been disabled by me, and it keeps getting re-enabled when i store details on the "Connect to server" app. This then means my remote desktop doesn't work 'till i delete the keyrings and then reset the password... its never done this before.12:36

nitsMitchFX: do a top or ps and note the process id , then use kill processid13:12
llutzilovefairuz: sure, but you have to find all the deps manually before. sounds its not what he wants13:12
ilovefairuzMitchFX: what program ?13:12
israfelGhostly, The last step of the install, there's an Advanced button. Make sure that it sets the proper partition.13:12
ubuntu-jnhi everyone13:12
sacarlsonubuntu: that might be that you 3g draws too much power from your usb +5v.  maybe try if you have other plugs some systems have 2 totaly separarte usb buses.  other option might require you have a usb hub that provides the power to the devices on the external usb hub.13:12

CkhiKuzadotherwise the terminal has to run14:20
ilovefairuzlelle: yessss! it supports nl80211 so supposedly it work fine fine with hostapd, so you need to use that driver instead of ndiswrapper14:20

dj_korppiso... if I break the problem down, the first problem now is that I have a RAID1 array, which somehow became unusable when I upgraded from 9.10 -> 10.04. Disk utility shows the components of the array, but when I tried to start the array, it said something about missing components. mdadm managed to start it with --assemble --scan but there is no partition table.

StaleHello, I want to know what is the most stable Ubuntu release. Any ideas/suggestions?16:13
cypher-neolelle, The ubuntu-restricted-extras package will add various capabilities to your computer, but until you enable or set your wireless card to use any newly installed drivers, it shouldn't do anything.16:13

tucemiuxjanicko, that doesnt cut it, if someone is to help you they need to know something like, i have a package bell computer, model xyz using wireless card yza, I dont know what wireless card you have and cant help you, someone who has a package bell computer or who has a belkin card wireless **might** but you need to post that piece of information, all in **one line***16:14

jiffeis there no apt package for php-zlib?16:19
reggithanks erUSUL i'll google that and see if i can do it.16:19
cypher-neostale: 8.04 is stable, but also out of date.16:20
tucemiuxjanicko, read ailleantsian 's comments, he seems to have knowledge of belkin wireless, ive never used those and in either case, you need to find out what belkin card you have,  if it's a laptop you can probably start by looking at your machine, it's a packard bell?? there should be a model number associated with the machine but as I dont use that hardware I cant help you, someone who has might be able to help you16:20
janickolelle: how do i get it?16:20
cypher-neostale: 10.04 is the current long-term-release candidate. Which means that is the current stable release, and up-to-date.16:21
Jsonikonia, If your still around, thanks a million. Umm, can I undo it (the arrangement) after I'm done ? I only want it temporarily.16:21
slow-motionhi16:21
_Brandon_hi, is there a virtual keyboard that automatically show itself when selecting a text input?16:21
Stalecypher-neo: Is there a later release that is also stable as 8.04? I will install a minimal Ubuntu on some old Dell PC (125 RAM), but I do not want any loose bugs around.16:22
kiamowhere do I go to see what changes where made with the kernel update that came out last week?16:22
cypher-neostale: 10.04 is stable.16:22
Danielsblug_Brandon_, I have no experience with virtual keyboards but there are some in Ubuntu Software Center, check them out. Maybe you'll find one that suits your needs.16:23
cypher-neoStale, LTS releases are always released for stability.16:23

Stalecypher-neo: Even though there are forum complaints of 10.04 (those complaints are also out-dated)?16:24
Danielsblug_Brandon_,  Ohh I see, sorry then.16:24
cypher-neoStale, I don't know what the forums say. I don't read forums unless I have problems and want to confirm that someone else is having the same problem.16:25
jiffewhy can I use less with a file and have key availability such as up/down/q but when I pipe php -i | less these keys do not work16:25
jiffeI get things like ^[OA instead16:25
cypher-neoStale, I've been using 10.04 since the day it was released. It is a little different from previous releases, but I've seen nothing that has been so severely crippling that I would need to go to an earlier version.16:25
RenatoSilvaThere was any recent change in behavior of /var/log/auth.log? It seems the system hopefully won't log wrong passowords in this file anymore...16:26
codeforkjeffwhats the name of the process for the gnome main menu? (the bar at the top with applications, settings,etc)?16:26
cypher-neoStale, If you're so worried about it, you can download the ISO image, burn it to a CD and preview it.16:26

Stalecypher-neo: That is alright with me. The only other thing I wanted to know is that in your experience, what was the most stable Ubuntu release?16:27

Stalecyphrer-neo: Okay, thanks for your help, cypher-neo.16:29
cypher-neoStale, The only quirks in 10.04 was that one of the desktop themes has the icons on the other side of the window (which I actually liked), and there are extra security options on Wine which require you to be in su- to install programs.16:29

einohello! I'm trying to install ubuntu 10.04 from a usb pen drive, but my screen goes blank every time the ubuntu splash logo diappears and the welcome song plays out (No Signal Detected). I'm using ATI Radeon HD5770. People with the same issue have reported that when they added "nomodeset" (without ""s) it worked, but I haven't been lucky with that. I tried pressing TAB in the boot screen and17:09
einoadded nomodeset and pressed enter, but it didn't work. How can I get this to work?17:09
abhijitNo matter whatever software I use, i need to go twice to burn disk.17:09

FrotsWiesshund: what?17:13
tucemiuxramk,  reinstall alsa drivers, look for the "Refreshing/Reinstalling the drivers" portion: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting17:14
FrotsWiesshund: I use 8.8.8.8 as dns and you can see I have my IP (public)17:14
devkhadkais there any option other than auto in ls --color = auto17:14
abhijitkuttan_, i dont want command line tool.17:14
TomwaWiesshund: I dont have a spare monitor :(17:14
WiesshundFrots isnt what i asked.17:14
ramktucemiux, i ll try that. thanks17:14
FrotsWiesshund: please explain your question17:15
VCooliodevkhadka: always and never, read 'man ls'17:15
TomwaWiesshund: could something have gone wrong during the driver install? The ati panel won't open and says "No ATI graphics driver is installed, or the ATI driver is not functioning properly. Please install the ATI driver appropriate for you ATI hardware, or configure using aticonfig.17:15
Tomwa"17:15
tucemiuxramk, and from what i have experienced, you can reinstall the drivers fine and it will work however some things will need to be manually configured, for that you will need to read the entire page and get the exact drivers that you need, that page will show you how, ive never bothered -- once I got sound working I didnt care that the buttons on my laptop no longer worked17:15
Wiesshundtomaw ok, not end of the world. i think you will need to edit your xorg config by hand, and set a resolution that your monitor is happy with17:16
ramkok17:16
droesDoes anyone know how to merge search bar and adress bar in midori?17:16
TomwaWiesshund: How do I go about that?17:16
Wiesshundtoman failsafe mode doesnt load the driver (its fail safe )17:16
tucemiuxriot, my mistake17:16
TomwaWiesshund: that'd explain why it doesn't find the driver then lol17:16
devkhadkaVCoolio,  i mean for color options17:16
FrotsWiesshund: did you mean if I use DHCP? because I don't use DHCP, I use static IP address and dns17:17
WiesshundFrots how are you obtaining your ip address?17:17
tucemiuxriot, apparently it's: sudo lshw -C disk17:17
devkhadkaVCoolio, i want to change color scheme17:17
FrotsWiesshund: I just replied to you above17:17
kuttan_is trafficserver not availble in ubuntu17:17
Aemaethhow would i set a while loop (in dash) to take a value in from read and use that later in the code?   basically i need to pop a read value into a string to finish code later and i'm having some syntax issues.  I'm trying to achieve while( lineoftext=(read(file.txt))) do blah blah $lineoftext done17:18
tucemiuxriot, the command you used gave you everything including the information we need, the command i just gave you will give you specific information that we can use17:18
devkhadkaVCoolio, 777 format directory are  higlighted with green color and text is also green so i want text to be yellow how can i change that17:18
riottucemiux: but the drives appear there17:18
WiesshundFrots then youve something set wrong, ip out of range, wrong gateway, etc. if you can ssh to a local then your equipment works fine17:18
tucemiuxriot, are you trying to use a CD or DVD or what ??17:18
sacarlsonfrots: for static IP address did you have to disable network-manager?17:18
droesDoes anyone know how to merge search bar and adress bar in midori?17:18
tucemiuxFrots, could be a dns issue17:18
riottucemiux: both don't work17:19
Aemaethor really, if there's some good documentation on dash out there, i would be happy to read up, but so far have found very little17:19
VCooliodevkhadka: change the 'LS_COLORS' variable in .bashrc or something; use 'dircolors' to find out current settings17:19

=== carlo is now known as Guest37507
tucemiuxriot, then you mount the device to "/media/cdrom", which is why we wanted to know what device your hardware was using in the first place, the command is: sudo mount [DEVICE] /media/cdrom ---for [DEVICE] try putting the devices you got from the link you gave me, you already tried /dev/sr017:22

AshWatsonphilinux, i cant boot in windows so that wont help17:39
Wiesshundsweet it means your monitor is being asked to run a resolution/refresh rate, outside its capabilities17:39
riottucemiux: several media17:39
ramksacarlson u can issue the following command on terminal : dpkg -l | grep "myapp"17:39
philinuxAshWatson: you need to reinstall the windows bootloader then. Instructions in grub2 basics thread.17:39
sacarlsondpkg -l  now who knows how to use that list to create a new system with the same packages?17:39
kuttan_any deb package available for this http://trafficserver.apache.org/index.html17:39
sweetWiesshund: i know that. The trick is that it happens once in a while at bootup on a fresh install. Sometimes the display resolution at bootup is correct, sometimes it isnt17:40
AshWatsonphilinux, how do i do that cause i dont have a windows vista disc17:40
sacarlsonramk: that is correct17:40
votwell with a bit of prodding i think this will work17:40
tucemiuxsacarlson, that's not specific enough though, what I need is appz that arent installed by default and I have to install manually, unless you upgrade you always have to install those appz manually when you install from an ISO17:40
sweetWiesshund: wait how can you configure the refresh rate ?17:40
Yadirasacarlson,  that list does not have apps i have installed17:40
Yadirais too short17:40
AshWatsonphilinux, ive done acer eRecovery17:41
Wiesshundsweet you could just define its resolution in xorg.conf17:41
ramksacarlson, this may not help.. but what i do is save all my apt-get install app1 app2 in google docs.. so when i do a fresh install next time is easy17:41
AshWatsonand that didnt fix grub17:41
abhijit!fixgrub | AshWatson17:41
ubottuAshWatson: 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.17:41

riottucemiux: all these media work on other machines17:41
tucemiuxriot, if you have a live CD or an install CD I would try it just to make sure it's not a hardware issue17:41
sweetWiesshund: I'll try fidgeting with that and see if it solves the issue, before filing a bug report on launchpad17:41
sweetWiesshund: so it doesn't seem to be a known bug/issue17:42

oCean_Yadira: then where?17:44
Monkey_DustYadira: you can use Synaptic and show only installed software17:44
tucemiuxriot,  all hardware has a life span, they tend to RIP when you least expected, I would at least try that option just to make sure it's not a hardware issue, just boot up into the CD/DVD live, if you succeed then you know the problem is with ubuntu17:44
riottucemiux: two drives?! the drives work. I made sure.17:45
Yadirai can use sypnatic,,but can i generate a list so i can have for back up17:45

oCean_Yadira: you've had many suggestions. Stop repeating17:48
philinuxAshWatson: so what happens with livecd17:48
AshWatsonoption 2 hdd17:48
AshWatsoni put it in and it just goes straight to the error < philinux17:48

Yadirau giveimg me the same answer stop repeating17:48
cryptkYadira: dpkg -l | grep "^ii"17:48
cryptkthat will give a list of installed packages17:49
philinuxAshWatson: sounds like the livecd not booting at all then17:49
shsekI'm getting "ALERT! /dev/mapper/foobar-root does not exists" error on boot (after messing up some stuff with initramfs-tools), but I can access my filesystem via the rescue mode of the Ubuntu Server CD. I think its because the LVM2 module isn't loaded properly. How do I tell initramfs to load this module?17:49
AshWatsonphilinux, so how would i fix this ?17:49
philinuxAshWatson: try the livecd in another machine see if it's ok17:50

SaevarTestien, grub-install /dev/<disk>18:12

tripelb-webchatI'm on a 10.04 livecd. Checked twice for integrity. programs quit: gparted, ff keeps quitting on certain sites (ubuntu help pages eg). This does not happen with 9.0419:14
tripelb-webchatI wanted to instal 10.04. I want my new,big HD to have partitions. I partitioned it with gparted. I opened install a couple of times just to look and not understand.  Now gparted "unexpectedly quits". FF keeps quitting too. None of this has happened on a HD install of 9.10 or on the 9.04 liveCd. Help!!19:14

By default, most of them appear in the upper left corner, which is annoying because I have to then manually center them.

tucemiuxtripelb-irssi,  1T is a lot of space for ubuntu, I suggest you create a live CD and use gparted to partition your drive first, the easiest install is to create 1 primary partition with 1 gig for "swap" - then create one extended partition and use all of the remaining space, then I would create an extended partition of about 10 gigs for "/" and another 20 gigs for "/home",  I would create partitions just to hold data for ubuntu and anoth20:16

ianwizard1I've got an EeePC, and I'm trying to get the basic hardware working (fan, hotkeys, etc)  with the module eeepc-laptop.  I know that this is right, but I can't get it to load, it just says "No such device!".  I've done this before, but I just reinstalled, and I can't get it to work.   I thought that what I did to get it to work before was just boot with elevator=CFQ  but that's not fixing it now.  What might I do?20:45
henkpoleyianwizard1: the 'elevator' is merely a performance tweak. Also, CFQ has been standard for 3 years already (or maybe even far more)20:47
Hello-KittyHey, guys.  Had a quick question.20:47
ubuntu420has anyone been able to access ubuntu remotely ?20:47
ianwizard1henkpoley: I just know what worked before.  (Or apperantly not.)20:47
ZykoticK9ubuntu420, ssh all the time...20:47
ubuntu420ssh is console cmd only !20:48
Hello-KittyAfter running a system update I'm having a strange error.  Everytime I boot up now I have to manually start my Ethernet adapter.20:48
ZykoticK9ubuntu420, with X forwarding that is incorrect20:48
ianwizard1What else might cause it to not recognize the hardware as what it is.20:48
ubuntu420i'd prefer to see the desktop.20:48
henkpoleyianwizard1: I expect anything you need to know is described here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC20:48
Hello-KittyI end up running ifconfig eth0 up and dhclient eth020:48
henkpoleyianwizard1: especially : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC/Fixes20:49
ZykoticK9ubuntu420, if you need a "desktop" ssh isn't right for you actually... good luck man.20:49
ianwizard1ubuntu420: use rdesktop, (rdp)20:49
Hello-KittyZykoticK9: Lmao. =P20:49
ubuntu420install rdesktop on ubuntu will allow me to access ubuntu-desktop remotely from windows ?20:49
ianwizard1henkpoley: I'll look, but the first time it took me two weeks to sift through the net, and a little trial and error.20:50

MTec007hello, im using pendrivelinux to create a portable linux install and i need to figure out how to make it completely persistant. is there something i can do in ubuntu to do that? technically im on the livecd right now, but its running off my portable harddrive.21:23
ZykoticK9tobyrose115, is this a VirtualBox VM install?21:23
tobyrose115mechcozmo: I did! en0 gave a device not found error21:23
mechcozmotobyrose115: makes sense21:23
cypher-neoubuntu420, I've never used FreeNX before...21:24
tobyrose115mechcozmo: nope, full install21:24

lap_dragonI can't get it to work on tinychat a box keeps appearing that says "click allow and remember"21:24
mechcozmotobyrose115: after running the down/up cycle what does ifconfig eth0 give?21:24
cypher-neoubuntu420, If that command doesn't work though, you might try switching to the option listed for older versions.21:24
lap_dragonBut I don't see any clickable allows or remembers21:24
aefJordan_U: any idea?21:24
livingdaylightmaco, got it all working - YESSS!21:24
cypher-neoubuntu420, You would need to change some of the syntax though21:24

mechcozmotobyrose115: but if your router does have that option, it may be the easiest; just tell it the address you want it to get and the MAC address of the card, and ta-da!21:28

mechcozmo**fun21:32
tobyrose115mechcozmo: yeah, im just really confused as to why its doing it, also the odd config of the interfaces file with no mention of eth021:33
Jordan_Ujanicko: You probably didn't need to install windows wireless drivers. Can you run "lspci" in a terminal and pastebin the output?21:33
aefJordan_U: the option in gconf exists but it doesn't work if changed, even after x restart21:33

I will need to have username reporting for the higherups as IP/hostname is not21:35
anmol284@quizno50 I too am KDE fanboi, have been using it since the day I stopped using Ubuntu 5 years back. Love it and hate it the same time.21:35
sideonei heard kde had gotten verryyy slow with refresh on nv chipsets21:35
quizno50@anmol284 stopped using Ubuntu? What do you use now?21:36

jpds_nordle: On your end it would be on Destination Port 22.23:11
jpds_nordle: The Source Port is different though.23:11
cmwslwchemical_death: i understand cron, i just need a terminal window to open for my command23:11

cmwslwgnome-terminal -e seems to open a window briefly and close it23:11
piercedwaterOk, PCManFM is able to see my HFS filesystem,but the command line unbuntu isnt. any ideas?23:11
ZykoticK9cmwslw, i doubt cron really takes X into account... runs all in a scaled back terminal environment23:12
raubvogelnordle: port 22 is the port the server opens to listen to incoming crap. The source port can be whatever it wants to be23:12
ikoniapiercedwater: please don't use the language you used last time23:12
piercedwaterok23:12
nordlejpds_: Oh.  Every day I realise I know less and less :)  My sshd is on port 44.  My router has a rule to forward everything coming to 44 to 192.168.0.3:4423:12
ikoniapiercedwater: have you checked if the hfs kernel module is loaded as I suggested ?23:13
chemical_deathnordle: 22 is just the port what is listen for that service. (e.g. the server you want access) questions comes from everywhere23:13
piercedwaterisnt it safe to assume it is since pcmanfm recognized my hfs volume23:13
ikoniapiercedwater: no23:13

bindianyone know why do I have a green picture when using HDMI on ubuntu 10.04? i3 onboard graphics. worked fine on this monitor, not on TV though23:13

ZykoticK9bindi, actually if it's ok with monitor - don't bother...23:15
ikoniapiercedwater: what is the mount command your using ?23:15
bindiZykoticK9: everything is green23:15
nordleThanks guys!  In this instance the vncserver "closed the connection" according to my dad, thats the message on his client PC.  In the end we disabled both software firewalls (sudo ufw disable) and it worked.  But of course, now I don't know who's firewall was the problem.  His was set to allow 22 for everyone.  Mine was set to allow 44 for everyone.  So why would the VNC server reject the connection, I thought it was supposed to be tunnelled over ssh.  It23:16
nordleimplies it is, asks for key passwords etc.  But it only worked with ufw disable.23:16

tripelb-irssiZykoticK9: something wrong happened and then gparted started crashing. I'm trying to get this wrong info off this brand new drive. ikonia... I appreciate all help. ---- I used fdisk then gparted. then later used gparted (fromt he 9,04 disk) to remove the partitions. Then the install of 10.04 wouldnt work so I got an fdisk listing.23:23

eventiugh -23:26
headkase314ikonia, I had a package of Zsnes (32-bit assembler code) which installed in 64-bit - but that 32-bit program was a specifically built .deb file and it required the 32-bit compatibility libraries to be installed.  That was a stand-alone program so it could be done, with PHP this program is a module within a wider program so I don't think it can be done without making the entire stack 32-bit?23:26
Chiggins_DGM_ it said Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth023:27
elkcloneubuntu has roots in debian.23:27
ikoniaheadkase314: 32bit packages for 64bit arch are built with arch 64bit so they dont need to be forced23:27

_DGM_pwp: i think the american law allows you to reverse engineer and write a paper about it.. but you're not actually allowed to do something with it. something vague like that23:55
pwpIt is really sketchily worded. It can be broadly interpreted, unfortunately in America the one with the most money (i.e. the company) usually wins.23:56
zopiacheadkase314: hmmm...still nothing. I will log in again and try then.23:56

pwpHello, I am having a problem such that my X Window will periodically crash at random intervals... I have a Xorg.0.log if anyone wants to look as well as a listing of the output of lshw -c display. From the log, it would appear to have something to do with AIGLX, as it consistently shows up like that right before it crashes. Thank you. X log: http://pastebin.com/iFNS6KT8 lshw:http://pastebin.com/CafiMuqN23:57
_DGM_Chiggins: if not, http://omingo.zorngrid.com/23:57

dansanHello.  I have an annoying problem on my gf's ubuntu box.  At the login screen and when log onto my account, everything is fine and my resolution is 1920x1080 just like I want it (the 1st entry in the Section "Screen" / Option "metamodes" string, which should be the default)... However, when she logs on to her account, it goes to 640x480 :(  Where can I change this?23:58
_DGM_Chiggins: you do now? ok grats :P if you dont anymore randomly afterwards use the instructions on that page23:58
