| jaybee | Is there an easy way to get rid of all the unnecesary processes in ubuntu? I've noticed it has a ton or stuff that I can't see a need for, ie xfs,jfs, etc.... | 00:00 |
| area51pilot | any email client preferences for working with Exchange??? ...anyone? | 00:00 |
| jaybee | I think it may be the kernel loading all of this stuff, rcconf isn't the thing... | 00:00 |
| jaybee | This is ubuntu server, so having * hardware support is quite a nuisance | 00:01 |
| test34 | jaybee, xfs process? do you mean package? | 00:01 |
| maco | IdleOne: thanks | 00:01 |
| maco | hipstersandwich: you too | 00:01 |
| jaybee | 1 S root 25596 2 0 80 0 - 0 worker Sep07 ? 00:00:00 [xfslogd/1] | 00:02 |
| hipstersandwich | maco: Of course... but what did I do? | 00:02 |
| jaybee | and so on.... | 00:02 |
| IdleOne | maco: yup | 00:02 |
| maco | hipstersandwich: said /join would take me to it | 00:02 |
| hiexpo | wow spam is getting bad in here thanks for whoever kicked him | 00:02 |
| nakhlawi | area51pilot: I heard that evoluion has a plugin which works with M$ exchange | 00:02 |
| hipstersandwich | maco: Oh. Right. | 00:02 |
| IdleOne | maco: until you figure out a better way of doing it that is :) | 00:02 |
| Dwade09 | ok guys i get this error when ever i try to install stuff with out having the cd inserted or mounted. http://pastebin.com/qnL4afJJ | 00:02 |
| area51pilot | nakhlawi: thans...i tried it but there were some issues. Using gmail, pop3 and exchange on the same client | 00:03 |
| jaybee | anyone know if that is possible? to trim down all these kernel userland processes? | 00:03 |
| jaybee | I see the problem | 00:03 |
| jaybee | whoever made the ubuntu kernel mod has configured it to load all modules by default | 00:04 |
| yorkie_ian | area51pilot: I assume you have tried Thunderbird.... | 00:04 |
| jaybee | that's odd, when i used to compile my own I never has problems with autoloading | 00:04 |
| jaybee | except in extreme circumstances | 00:04 |
| Dwade09 | can anyone help me figure out how to make this error go away without having to have the cd/dvd mounted or inserted? http://pastebin.com/qnL4afJJ | 00:05 |
| jaybee | is there a recommended, and relatively pain free way of having it so that the ubuntu kernel doesn't load * modules | 00:05 |
| area51pilot | yorkie: yes..I am currently using Thunderbird | 00:05 |
| h00k | jaybee: I'm pretty sure the kernel only loads the modules necessary for your hardware. | 00:05 |
| ben_q | Hey, I have a problem. I un-encrypted my home folder by moving everything out, renaming that auto-mount-file, relogging and then moving back. now rtorrent won't start anymore claiming "Starting rtorrent: rtorrentkeyctl_search: Required key not available | 00:05 |
| ben_q | Perhaps try the interactive 'ecryptfs-mount-private' | 00:05 |
| ben_q | keyctl_search: Required key not available" | 00:05 |
| FloodBot1 | ben_q: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:05 |
| jaybee | Well, for me, it has done stuff like loaded every single fs module, fat, ntfs, xfs, etc, I only need ext and those weird memory ones, etc | 00:05 |
| yorkie_ian | area51pilot: it might worth checking their website to see if they have already had this asked on there | 00:06 |
| jaybee | and /etc/modules only contains 3 modules that don't appear to be fs | 00:07 |
| area51pilot | Yorkie: I checked around a other users suggestions....still working with Thunderbird. It works well, but I am mapped to Exchange with IMAP | 00:07 |
| amadews | hy how can i delet all files from machine theat conteins a custom extension ? | 00:07 |
| thune3 | jaybee: you have 1000s of modules loaded? Ubuntu compiles much of the kernel as modules and loads them as required. you could blacklist modules you don't want loaded, though frankly i don't think fretting over 1MB of memory is worth the effort. | 00:08 |
| jaybee | Well, why the hell is it loading every single fs module? | 00:08 |
| nakhlawi | area51pilot: If you are using IMAP, why not download your mails using a script then importing them into thunderbird? | 00:08 |
| yorkie_ian | area51pilot: sorry I can't be of any other help, I use Thunderbird and it works for aall my requirements | 00:08 |
| jaybee | thune3: any unnecesary code inexecution is not only a drain on resources, and an obfuscator, but also increases the chances of a security breach (ie one of those modules might have a privilege eselation hack) and instability | 00:09 |
| subspider | my printer is giving some error is 5012 | 00:09 |
| area51pilot | nak & york: I am using T-bird just fine. The Evolution email and calendar interface seem to be a bit more refined | 00:09 |
| jaybee | and 1mb of memory, is an assumption | 00:10 |
| nakhlawi | area51pilot: actually, If IMAP is enabled in your Exchange server, you don't need the script at all. Just Thunderbird. | 00:10 |
| subspider | i tryed so many things can someone help | 00:10 |
| area51pilot | nak: yes, I have IMAP enabled and am using tbird just fine with it | 00:10 |

| chetnick | Hello, I just installed amd64 Ubuntu 10.04 on my laptop. I noticed that flash is eating up a lot of my CPU (npviewer.bin). Now I know that 64bit flash for linux sucks, and I'm guessing that is where the high CPU usage problem comes from. Is this the case with 32bit flash as well? | 00:23 |
| rww | land0rz: the instructions are on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 00:23 |
| land0rz | rww, thank you | 00:24 |
| hiexpo | hello all | 00:24 |
| hiku | chetnick: no issues here with 32bit 10.04 and flash for me on my laptop | 00:24 |
| rww | land0rz: as is the fact that doing so is not recommended or supported here, and the reasons for that | 00:24 |
| hiku | hi hiexpo | 00:24 |
| headkase314 | _artist_m_, your first stop for finding software should be the Ubuntu Software Center under the Applications menu. You'll find lots of different software there. | 00:24 |
| chetnick | hiku: Do you know if I can install 32bit firefox/adoble-flash on 64bit Ubuntu to avoid this issue? | 00:25 |
| hiku | chetnick: I tried that once along time ago. It might work, but, I'd just install 32bit and not look back until adobe fixes flash for 64bit | 00:26 |

| headkase314 | chetnick, installing "ubuntu-restricted-extras" under 64-bit will install 32-bit flash automatically too. Firefox will also be set up to use it. | 00:26 |
| rww | kgs: I have, yes. | 00:26 |

| dan86 | billy_connolly do you want to keep windows? | 00:38 |

| dan86 | and it will give you an option | 00:38 |
| dan86 | to format the entire drive | 00:38 |
| hiku | bovine: hmm, that is odd... very odd. I wish I was at work I could test that out here. sorry. | 00:38 |
| billy_connolly | I read somewhere that formatting just deletes tables or something, what do I do to just clear everything? | 00:38 |
| dan86 | just format the drive through the installer you will be fine | 00:39 |

| dan86 | any idea | 00:42 |
| snow_usa | oh dear | 00:42 |
| snow_usa | oh dear | 00:42 |
| hiku | razz1: no, just use sudo to change the permissions | 00:42 |
| yorkie_ian | dan86 unfortunately no, never encountered that before | 00:42 |
| headkase314 | dan86, on my Acer Aspire 5100 everything works too but the mic. I spent like 2 hours yesterday with no success. | 00:42 |

| yorkie_ian | dan86 have you tried an external mic?? | 00:44 |
| hiku | dan86: what type of laptop? | 00:44 |
| dan86 | hiku toshiba u305 | 00:44 |
| cockatrice | dan86: it might be a driver issue. | 00:44 |
| dan86 | yorkie_ian no, it has an internal mic i would prefer to use | 00:45 |
| dan86 | cockatrice any idea how to solve it? | 00:45 |

| razz1 | hiku: so you reckon I will have issues restoring them? I always use sudo -i before I run clonezilla. I guess I can leave them that way. | 00:46 |
| hiku | dan86: check this link. under the "notes section it talks about the sound card. http://www.linlap.com/wiki/toshiba+satellite+u300-u305 | 00:46 |
| cockatrice | dan86: First, please find your top panel and go to System->Administration->Hardware Drivers | 00:46 |
| hiku | razz1: no, if you change the permissions on the files you should be fine | 00:46 |
| dan86 | thank you hiku | 00:46 |
| cockatrice | dan86: The microphone driver might be listed there. | 00:46 |
| hiku | dan86: hope that helps. | 00:46 |

| razz1 | hiku: no worries, I will leave it as is, if I have issues when restoring I can change the permissions. this is the first time the files were saved with root permissions. not sure why. all the previous images were saved under my account. I am a bit puzzled?? | 00:49 |
| yaaar | hey guys. i'm setting up a new server, and recently came across a "shortcut" to getting the typical LAMP packages: 'apt-get -s install lamp-server^' ...that certainly selects a lot of stuff, and it all looks fine to me...but now I'm wondering: how does it work? Reading the man page the only reference to the carat is in using regex to match package names...but lots of the packages selected by... | 00:49 |
| yaaar | ...this command don't seem to match. can anybody enlighten me as to what's up here? | 00:49 |
| skkeeper | its problaby a virtual package | 00:49 |
| cockatrice | The carat means at the end of the match. | 00:49 |
| skkeeper | just like ubuntu-desktop | 00:49 |
| hiku | razz1: I've done stuff like that. thought I was using my id and later found out I was using root. | 00:49 |
| dan86 | hiku sound works, but the volume knob does not | 00:49 |
| skkeeper | but im just guessing i have no idea, but i use that lamp-server^ trick too | 00:50 |
| dan86 | hiku moving the volume knob causes gnome to crash | 00:50 |
| skkeeper | the strange part is that only works with apt-get, try aptitude | 00:50 |
| hiku | dan86: hmm, yea I'm finding alot of folks with that laptop are having issues with the mic, and so far, no resolution. | 00:50 |
| skkeeper | it will fail | 00:50 |
| skkeeper | : \ | 00:50 |
| brainproxy | is there a utility like md5sum or sha256sum for calculating RIPEMD-160 hash sums? | 00:50 |
| yaaar | skkeeper: yeah i noticed that aptitude didn't work....suggests to me that it's not a virtual package | 00:51 |
| cockatrice | brainproxy: Have you checked the man pages for those to see if there's a RIPEMD-160 switch? | 00:51 |
| razz1 | hiku: how can you use your ID in clonezilla, I use root because I run screen before clonezilla to save the output. | 00:51 |
| skkeeper | oh well | 00:51 |
| brainproxy | cockatrice: yes, there isn't one as far as I can tell, but I'll look again | 00:51 |
| skkeeper | problably apt-get magic | 00:51 |
| skkeeper | xD | 00:51 |
| cockatrice | brainproxy: Just use grep. | 00:52 |
| hiku | razz1: =) trade secret | 00:52 |
| skkeeper | anyone here can compile clutter-gtk on ubuntu? | 00:52 |
| bodwick | dan86 can you adjust volume using gnome-alsamixer ? | 00:52 |
| yaaar | cockatrice: i know what a carat means in a regex. these packages don't appear to match. something else is going on and I'm asking what | 00:52 |
| dan86 | bodwick yes | 00:52 |
| dan86 | bodwick that works fine | 00:52 |
| dan86 | just not the knob | 00:52 |
| cockatrice | brainproxy: iirc, the complete command should be man md5sum | grep 'RIPEMD-160' | 00:52 |

| trism | brainproxy: quick search of the repo brings up jacksum and gtkhash, perhaps one of those? they both lis ripemd explicitly | 00:53 |
| razz1 | hiku: ok, lets get one thing clear, if i run clonezilla as root I should not have any problems restoring the image back. right? | 00:54 |
| brainproxy | trism: thanks | 00:54 |
| hiku | razz1: correct | 00:54 |
| razz1 | hiku: thankyou. | 00:55 |
| dan86 | bodwick any ideas? | 00:55 |
| land0rz | rww, i was reading the documentation, but here... . Just remember, when sudo asks for a password, it needs YOUR USER password, and not the root account password. | 00:56 |
| jaybee | For default (fallback vhosts) apache usually will take the highest vhost in the file (the first) as the default if no other potent retard snacks match, but ubuntu fragments the vhosts files... how can I know any longer the precedence? | 00:56 |
| land0rz | rww, can i change this? | 00:56 |
| razz1 | Alexnov: add this to your conkyrc file ${acpitemp}C | 00:56 |
| bodwick | dan86 there's a problem with mic volume knob? | 00:56 |

| iceroot | Rastafari: dont use restricted-extras! its a overkill for that | 01:02 |
| ikey | iceroot, Maybe true. Still quicker. | 01:02 |
| iceroot | Rastafari: use vlc (which is using its own codecs) or the w32codec package | 01:02 |
| iceroot | ikey: its pulling java, acroread and so on... | 01:02 |
| ikey | iceroot, it pulls java now? wth? | 01:03 |

| CkhiKuzad | Livin4Jesus, a dual boot system is also safe if you get a windows virus that may attempt to delete the wubi "partition" on your system. | 01:48 |

| CkhiKuzad | Livin4Jesus, when you boot your system, hold down the Delete key, if it does not work, try F12, it will allow you to get into your BIOS. dont mess with it until you know what you are doing. a simple way would be to take a picture of the BIOS screen, then once we are able to tell you which one the boot order is in, we can help you to set CDs to be bootable | 01:50 |
| headkase314 | Livin4Jesus, to install Wubi-wise you insert the CD while Windows is running, to install dual-boot you insert the CD and ignore the Wubi message and reboot and then the computer should boot off the CD. Sometimes you have to go into what is called your BIOS to select the CD to boot before the hard drive. Booting off the CD there is also a "try" option so you can see if everything works before you commit to an ac | 01:50 |
| headkase314 | tual installation. | 01:50 |
| CkhiKuzad | and in some cases you could just use your arrow keys to select the CD Icon on your bootscreen. | 01:50 |

| donnkeyyyy | use | 02:21 |
| headkase314 | Livin4Jesus, wedwo says your download is corrupt. So you'll need to redownload. Do the MD5Sum check again when your redownload is finished and then burn the new ISO to a CD-R | 02:21 |
| donnkeyyyy | Someone here said thats a better one | 02:21 |
| ubuntu | st__, ? asking me what windows version i have? | 02:21 |
| donnkeyyyy | so he made me install it | 02:21 |
| Livin4Jesus | headkase: OK, the new Ubuntu OS is downloading. ;) | 02:21 |
| wedwo | Livin4Jesus, yes you have it, don't delete it! when you download the ubuntu 10.04 i386 32bit iso look just below it and you will see a .txt file for the Md5Checksum (or Md5-Hashes). download it too and when you check your downloaded iso the number must match the one in the .txt file | 02:21 |
| st__ | ubuntu yes | 02:21 |
| CkhiKuzad | donnkeyyyy, I cant help with that, i've never used it | 02:21 |

| Firefishe | I'm using ubuntu 10.04, kde 4.4.5. I have two user accounts, the normal user that was created during the install, and another I created for my wife. Both accounts are set up as admins. The problem: When using dolphin to transfer files from one desktop to another (something we do frequently), I find that I can only transfer from her desktop to mine, but not vice versa. What's wrong here? | 02:29 |

| edbian | JohnSQ, You mount it in a folder :) | 02:32 |

| Izinucs | JohnSQ: does it auto mount currently? | 02:32 |
| Thqmt | jrib ok thanks, should I go to "gnome apps"? | 02:33 |
| Izinucs | JohnSQ: if you haven't turned off the feature, it should show up on your desktop if it's mounted | 02:33 |
| donnkeyyyy | dpes anyone know Wicd?? | 02:33 |
| donnkeyyyy | how do you start your wifi in ubunt?? | 02:33 |
| JohnSQ | Not sure. I have Windows, Xubuntu, and Ubuntu installed on other computer. I want to reach into Ubuntu from Xubuntu and retrieve files. Can't get into Ubuntu cuz of low-graphics mode. | 02:33 |
| wedwo | Livin4Jesus, download from here : http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/http://paste.ubuntu.com/490101/ and you'll find the Md5's at the bottom half of the page | 02:33 |
| Livin4Jesus | OK | 02:34 |
| Izinucs | JohnSQ: ah.. ok.. do you know what the partition name is for the ubuntu side? | 02:34 |
| jrib | Thqmt: if it's a gnome app you are debugging, you should make sure to read that too, yes | 02:34 |
| edbian | Firefishe, there is userNameA and userNameB there is groupA you're saying this isn't a groupB ? | 02:34 |
| etherealite | sudo echo "127.0.0.1 www.jobeet.com.localhost" >> /etc/hosts | 02:34 |
| Livin4Jesus | wedwo: The requested URL /lucid/http://paste.ubuntu.com/490101/ was not found on this server. | 02:34 |
| etherealite | why does this not work? sudo echo "127.0.0.1 www.jobeet.com.localhost" >> /etc/hosts | 02:34 |
| JohnSQ | Yes | 02:35 |

| balleyne | help with fglrx module in 10.04? Ubuntu's telling me it doesn't exist. Help? | 02:35 |
| JohnSQ | Izinucs: Yes | 02:35 |
| wedwo | Livin4Jesus, http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ sorry bout that | 02:35 |
| Rastafari | adobe-flashplugin depends on libpango1.0-0 How to fix it ?@ | 02:35 |
| Livin4Jesus | wedwo: No problem. :) btw, I found the MD5Sum, now what? | 02:36 |
| Izinucs | JohnSQ: JohnSQ then you can "sudo mkdir /media/ubuntu" .. then .. "sudo mount /dev/<partition name like sda2> /media/ubuntu" | 02:36 |
| JohnSQ | interesting | 02:36 |
| JohnSQ | I can access the whole partition like that? | 02:36 |
| JohnSQ | Do I need the password for that? | 02:37 |
| Izinucs | JohnSQ: yes.. | 02:37 |
| etherealite | why does this not work? sudo echo "127.0.0.1 www.jobeet.com.localhost" >> /etc/hosts | 02:37 |
| Izinucs | JohnSQ: no | 02:37 |
| sacarlson | evan0: most files in your sever that are seen by your site (appache2) default from the root being in /var/www you can keep files in there and they won't be ran unless you have links to them start start from your index.html or php. | 02:37 |
| edbian | JohnSQ, Was the filesystem encrypted? | 02:37 |
| JohnSQ | No | 02:37 |
| JohnSQ | Nothing that important lol | 02:37 |
| Thqmt | jrib I took a look at that site and wasn't able to find what you're trying to point me to towards | 02:37 |
| jrib | etherealite: because the redirection is done by your shell, being run by your user. Instead, pipe to tee -a | 02:37 |
| Izinucs | JohnSQ: well.. I take that back.. if your user name is different on xubuntu than it was on ubuntu then yes.. you'll be asked for user name and password | 02:37 |
| Izinucs | possibly | 02:38 |
| JohnSQ | That is fine. I just had concerns it could be a potential security flaw | 02:38 |
| donnkeyyyy | So no one here knows Wicd??? | 02:38 |
| jrib | Thqmt: you asked how to debug, and I pointed you to the page about debugging :P | 02:38 |
| JohnSQ | Does this work for extracting files out of Windows as well? I don't need to, but just curious | 02:38 |
| wedwo | Livin4Jesus, once your iso has downloaded run it thru the .exe program in windows to get the Md5Checksum and see that it matches the sum in the .txt file you just found | 02:38 |
| jrib | Thqmt: ah sorry, I actually misread your question. What program? What happens when you try from a terminal | 02:38 |
| Livin4Jesus | OK. | 02:38 |
| donnkeyyyy | whats the command to startup your wifi?? | 02:39 |
| Thqmt | jrib I donno how to run programs from the terminal but I do so through double clicking. nothing happens. sometimes it will appear as a sleeping process. | 02:39 |
| Izinucs | JohnSQ: yes but you'll need another file (aka something like a dll) for NTFS partitions.. I think ntfs-3g or similar.. | 02:39 |
| MadWhiteNerd | I have a question: I have an HP G60 Laptop running Lucid, but when I close the lid and the computer sleeps, when I wake it up again, the screen is extremely dim and won't brighten again. I think the thread here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1529557&highlight=screen+is+dim+after+wake+up is potentially the answer, but I'm a noob and don't really understand what the answer means. Can someone help? | 02:39 |
| jrib | Thqmt: and my first question? | 02:39 |
| Thqmt | jrib shredder12 | 02:39 |
| Izinucs | JohnSQ: if it's fat32/16 whatever.. then it should be painless. | 02:39 |
| jrib | Thqmt: well figure out the command for it (edit your menu) | 02:40 |
| wedwo | Livin4Jesus, the two must match exactly or its not worth burning it. if they match all should be right as rain and you can then use that CD to run ubuntu | 02:40 |
| edbian | Thqmt, a good guess is "shredder12" | 02:40 |
| Livin4Jesus | wedwo: Cool. | 02:40 |
| edbian | Thqmt, or typing sh then hitting tab to make the computer auto-complete for you | 02:40 |
| Izinucs | JohnSQ: you can also include a line in /etc/fstab so the ubuntu and/or windows side is mounted on boot. | 02:40 |
| wedwo | Livin4Jesus, cool - over and out | 02:41 |
| Thqmt | edbian: neither of those do anything on my computer | 02:41 |
| edbian | Thqmt, Those were just guesses :) | 02:41 |
| Livin4Jesus | wedwo: What's that supposed to mean? | 02:41 |
| Thqmt | jrib which menu should I edit? | 02:41 |
| edbian | Thqmt, Edit the menu. See what is the command line of the entry for shedder12 | 02:41 |
| wedwo | Livin4Jesus, i'm off to the spanish chanel | 02:42 |
| edbian | Thqmt, System -> preferences -> Main Menu | 02:42 |
| Livin4Jesus | Ah. | 02:42 |
| JohnSQ | Izinucs: What line would I need to include in /etc/fstab? | 02:42 |
| Thqmt | edbian i'm there | 02:42 |
| Izinucs | JohnSQ: I'll have ubottu give you a private message with a couple of links that will clue you in on that. | 02:42 |
| edbian | Thqmt, Find the shredder12 icon in this sub lists. Right click it, hit properties. A box comes up. | 02:42 |
| Izinucs | !mount > JohnSQ | 02:43 |
| ubottu | JohnSQ, please see my private message | 02:43 |
| edbian | Thqmt, In the box is a "command" line. That command is what is run in a terminal window. It actually is the command that is run when you click that entry in the menu. | 02:43 |
| acc_ | Hello, #Ubuntu. A few years ago, I set up a Dell machine for my father-in-law. At the time, it was pre-installed with LTS (Hardy). I switched the machine over to Intrepid to get a few bleeding edge software upgrades installed. I want to bring the machine up-to-date now. Should I start making my way towards Lucid or Maverick? Thanks. | 02:43 |
| Thqmt | edbian it's not in the sublists | 02:43 |
| tensorpudding | Lucid is the current stable, so that is what you want. | 02:43 |
| edbian | Thqmt, Then it isn't in the Applications menu. | 02:44 |
| wedwo | acc_, Lucid | 02:44 |
| tensorpudding | I don't think that intrepid -> lucid is a supported upgrade path | 02:44 |
| acc_ | tensorpudding: Okay, figured as much. Thanks. | 02:44 |
| tensorpudding | though | 02:44 |
| Izinucs | acc_: if you have a separate /home I suggest just getting the latest LTS and fresh install leaving the old /home | 02:44 |
| ldurden | whats up with the flood bot? | 02:44 |
| ldurden | You guys getting hit? | 02:44 |
| tensorpudding | So you might consider reinstalling. | 02:44 |
| MadWhiteNerd | acc_: Lucid has been extremely nice to me so far. :) | 02:45 |
| acc_ | tensorpudding: I couldn't go Intrepid -> Jaunty -> Karmic -> Lucid? | 02:45 |
| Izinucs | acc_: it'll save you hours of upgrading through several releases and the agony that can bring when things don't work right. | 02:45 |
| evan0 | var/www/html, var/www/htdocs, var/www/public_html, differences? | 02:45 |
| tensorpudding | Of course you could do that. | 02:45 |
| acc_ | Izinucs: ah, ok | 02:45 |
| tensorpudding | But that would take a really long time. | 02:45 |
| acc_ | thanks | 02:45 |
| Izinucs | np | 02:45 |
| balleyne | if I have no xorg.conf file, how can I see what xorg settings are being used? | 02:45 |
| tensorpudding | If you had stuck with Hardy, there is a path for LTS-to-LTS jumps | 02:45 |
| Izinucs | balleyne: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 02:45 |
| balleyne | Izinucs: cat: /etc/X11/xorg.conf: no such file or directory | 02:46 |
| AlbertoP | tensorpudding: sorry to get in the middle. Do you have a link to that migration path? | 02:46 |
| balleyne | Izinucs: I'm running 10.04 live off usb, there's no xorg.conf file, but I'm trying to see what the settings it's using are... | 02:47 |
| MadWhiteNerd | Anyone know what I can do to get my display to brighten back up after my laptop has been asleep and wakes up? | 02:47 |
| Izinucs | balleyne: then you don't have a xorg.conf.. ah.. live cd then xrandr is handling the video | 02:47 |
| tensorpudding | AlbertoP: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades | 02:47 |
| === mbrigdan is now known as mbrigdan_ | ||
| balleyne | Izinucs: is there a way to tell which driver it's using? Off my actual install, I'm getting a complaint about fglrx, but things work fine on the live CD. Trying to compare. | 02:47 |
| Izinucs | balleyne: xrandr is the new default way of handling video even on a full install. you can create an xorg.conf to override it but it's not always necessary | 02:48 |
| AlbertoP | tensorpudding: thanks! | 02:48 |
| Izinucs | balleyne: did you do a full install and it's not working correctly? | 02:48 |
| balleyne | Izinucs: it's not working after upgrading to 10.04, trying to compare with a live CD. Maybe I'll try renaming my xorg.conf to let xrandr take over a see what happens... | 02:49 |
| Izinucs | balleyne: you might try that.. what did you upgrade from? which release? | 02:49 |
| balleyne | Izinucs: 9.10, but before that, 9.04, etc... might have started with Feisty or Hardy a few years back? | 02:50 |

| Calmcacil | i really wonder how to make my fluxbox start, it can use a screen but primarily it will be used as a VNC | 02:56 |
| Izinucs | MadWhiteNerd: basically that mean create a file (the last mentioned on the path line) in the path mentioned.. and in that file put the line mentioned... with values up to 30 | 02:57 |
| Izinucs | wasnik: sorry I don't have an answer for you.. | 02:57 |
| MadWhiteNerd | Izinucs: The option for create document is grayed out in file browser. | 02:57 |
| Izinucs | MadWhiteNerd: yes.. you're using the nautilus file manager? | 02:58 |
| MadWhiteNerd | Izinucs: I believe so, whatever came preinstalled with Lucid :P I'm still fairly new to Linux | 02:58 |
| gryllida | The command `dpkg --configure -a` when running as root returns errors http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/490118/ , what can I do to fix it? | 02:59 |
| donnkeyyyy | whats a good place for linux software | 03:00 |
| Izinucs | MadWhiteNerd: that location is protected and you need "root" access to that location to do that with the file manager.. you can open a terminal and type gksudo nautilus .. and the file manager will open with root privilidges.. navigate to the right location and create the file then open it and put that line inside.. save.. and then close that nautilus window.. it's dangerous using the file manager as root.. | 03:00 |

| cage_raphel | donnkeyyyy: try http://www.softlookup.com/ | 03:01 |
| Izinucs | JohnSQ: nothing beyond the obvious.. | 03:01 |
| MadWhiteNerd | Izinucs: Didn't know that... is that what the .d means on the power.d folder? | 03:01 |
| JohnSQ | Izinucs: How do I encrypt filesystem? | 03:01 |
| cage_raphel | donnkeyyyy: however i would suggest Ubuntu software center.. i feel thats the best! | 03:02 |
| donnkeyyyy | whats the site | 03:02 |
| Izinucs | MadWhiteNerd: not sure how what you mean.. but .. no :) | 03:02 |
| cage_raphel | donnkeyyyy: click on applications > Ubuntu Software Center | 03:02 |
| Izinucs | MadWhiteNerd: any location outside of /home typically requires root privilidges | 03:02 |
| donnkeyyyy | cage...I dont have internet on my linux pc | 03:02 |
| donnkeyyyy | I have to get it from here | 03:02 |
| Izinucs | JohnSQ: sorry I've never done that.. | 03:02 |
| MadWhiteNerd | Izinucs: Ah. Was just wondering if the .d was meant as protected. Thanks for the help! | 03:03 |
| donnkeyyyy | im trying to get my wifi to work | 03:03 |
| JohnSQ | Anyone know how I encrypt my filesystem in Ubuntu? | 03:03 |
| cage_raphel | donnkeyyyy: download it to your current machine , copy it in a cd/dvd/usb stick and move it to ya linux machine | 03:03 |
| sacarlson | donnkeyyyy: if you need to do it from within windows maybe you could install virtualbox in windows and install software you need for ubuntu normaly from within virtuabox with apt-get install. | 03:03 |
| Izinucs | MadWhiteNerd: nope.. file names in linux don't always have the extensions that you're use to in windows.. everything is basically a text file.. sort of | 03:03 |

| marc__ | quick question: do you guys see any problems about installing Webmin and IspConfig on the same computer? | 03:09 |
| n0a1ias | donnkeyyyy, sudo apt-get install wifi-radar maby? | 03:09 |
| jshsu | Izinucs: says no command for `lshw` | 03:09 |
| donnkeyyyy | Cant | 03:09 |
| donnkeyyyy | No internet connection | 03:09 |
| Livin4Jesus | wedwo: What was the command for the thing again? | 03:09 |
| donnkeyyyy | tthats what this is all about | 03:09 |
| n0a1ias | its like a long story but ok | 03:09 |
| donnkeyyyy | I cant get wifi to read | 03:09 |
| Izinucs | jshsu: you got issues with your system that I can't fix.. maybe someone else will be able to | 03:09 |
| donnkeyyyy | I have the driver installed | 03:09 |
| cage_raphel | marc__: I don't think you should have any problems. I have webmin installed on my Mandriva 2006 Perfect setup and it works fine | 03:09 |
| jshsu | Izinucs: ok thanks, i guess i'll try to get lshw first | 03:09 |
| gryllida | The command `dpkg --configure -a` when running as root returns errors http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/490118/ , what can I do to fix it? hello? am I asking in the right place? | 03:10 |
| rockhopper | Is ubuntu netbook remix any lighter than Ubuntu desktop edition except its UI? | 03:10 |
| sacarlson | donnkeyyyy: what I think you need is the drivers for your wifi device. you need to boot your ubuntu and do a lspci and/or lshw and find out what wifi device it is. Then google that to find if it has linux support. | 03:10 |
| === techhelper1 is now known as th1_ | ||
| donnkeyyyy | sacarlson I have a driver | 03:11 |
| donnkeyyyy | its installed | 03:11 |
| marc__ | cage_raphel, thanks, I'll try that then :D | 03:11 |
| MadWhiteNerd | Izinucs: It appears that that exact fix worked. Thanks for the help! | 03:11 |
| cage_raphel | marc__: :) | 03:11 |
| Lances | :) | 03:11 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: can you do lspci | grep net and pastebin? | 03:11 |
| donnkeyyyy | im on a windows pc | 03:12 |
| sacarlson | donnkeyyyy: what device is it? does it have a history of problems in linux/ubuntu? | 03:12 |
| Lances | yes | 03:12 |
| donnkeyyyy | it was just working a few hours ago | 03:12 |
| jdef | hi | 03:12 |
| etherealite | why does 'less -R' not produce colors? | 03:12 |
| jdef | I have a feeling I've been hacked... any gurus care to pm me to talk about it? | 03:12 |
| donnkeyyyy | sacarlson...how can I check if the device is installed | 03:13 |
| donnkeyyyy | just to confirm with you | 03:13 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: can you do lspci in the terminal? | 03:13 |
| TutTut89 | Is there a way to use a cdrw as a hard drive? Is there a certain term I should be looking for? | 03:13 |
| Izinucs | MadWhiteNerd: :) glad it did | 03:14 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: and pastebin? | 03:14 |
| donnkeyyyy | rockhopper im on windows | 03:14 |

| donnkeyyyy | i know my chipset | 03:14 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: You'll have to boot into ubuntu and check it yourself | 03:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | TutTut89, you really can't use a cdrw as a hard drive no, optical writing is not the same as HD writes | 03:14 |
| donnkeyyyy | its a Marvel Technologies Group 88w8335 | 03:15 |
| sacarlson | donnkeyyyy: device as in hardware? driver? you can see what is driving the device from sudo modprobe -l, the hardware can be seen from the lspci command. | 03:15 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: do iwconfig | 03:15 |
| rockhopper | and see if wlan0 or something like that's listed | 03:15 |
| amabo | how can i prevent the screen from dimming to lock out when idle? | 03:15 |
| donnkeyyyy | it says no woreless extentions | 03:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | sacarlson, rockhopper you're both waisting your time is donnkeyyyy is in Windows | 03:15 |
| sacarlson | donnkeyyyy: rockhopper: that's a good idea the iwconfig will show that the driver for your wifi is probly working | 03:16 |
| TutTut89 | ZykoticK9: Ok- thank you | 03:16 |
| donnkeyyyy | rockhopper it says lo and eth0 no wireless extentions | 03:16 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: ok then the wifi device's not being detected | 03:16 |
| earthmeLon | Hey! I'd like to remove a daemon from startup without removing it from the service list (ie not deleting it's entry from init.d/) Any solutions or should I grab BUM? | 03:17 |
| sacarlson | ZykoticK9: donnkeyyyy: he will have to boot linux and collect the info then return to windows if needed. can you fix it from inside windows? | 03:17 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: can you do 'sudo rfkill list' | 03:17 |
| ZykoticK9 | sacarlson, +1 | 03:17 |
| etherealite | why does piping through 'less -R' not produce colors? | 03:17 |
| rockhopper | and see if its hardblocked? | 03:17 |
| donnkeyyyy | rockhopper now I see this > | 03:17 |
| trism | etherealite: less -R doesn't color anything, it just doesn't filter the color codes | 03:17 |
| earthmeLon | What are you piping 'less -R' through, etherealite ? | 03:17 |

| Kerrick | Is there some way to put a script to mount a sshfs computer in the Places menu? | 03:18 |
| Kerrick | err | 03:19 |
| mobasher | earthmeLon, thanks bro..i donno what's wrong it's up and running internet is connected but can't ping to it | 03:19 |
| Kerrick | a sshfs drive | 03:19 |
| etherealite | earthmeLon does the pipe take the color characters out? | 03:19 |
| mobasher | earthmeLon, even the ports are open on the router..it's basically a router | 03:19 |
| BiggFREE | Is paying about 100$ CDN for an ACER monitor a good deal ? | 03:19 |
| earthmeLon | Im pretty sure that piping does remove the colours. etherealite mobasher | 03:19 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: Ok can you do lspci | grep -i net | 03:19 |
| etherealite | BiggFREE arbitrary question | 03:20 |
| trism | etherealite: works for me, what comand are you using exactly? I see color with tree -C | less -R | 03:20 |
| earthmeLon | mobasher lots of routers block pinging to prevent attacks. What type of router do you have? | 03:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kerrick, Places / Connect to Server... / select SSH from dropdown, add required info - then check "add a bookmark" | 03:20 |
| BiggFREE | etherealite: No hint | 03:20 |
| donnkeyyyy | again it does nothin and just shows > ..rockhopper | 03:20 |
| mobasher | earthmeLon, no no it was working yesterday now it changed ip and i can't get to it with new ip that was given | 03:20 |
| etherealite | BiggFREE Acer Monitor? that could be anything. | 03:20 |
| n0a1ias | http://www.pastbin.com/1rfnnqtT | 03:21 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: doing lspci | grep -i net shows nothing? | 03:21 |
| earthmeLon | mobasher You are indeed blocking pings. If you nmap the host, you will see that ftp, rtsp and realserver are open :D | 03:21 |
| etherealite | BiggFREE be more specific | 03:21 |
| donnkeyyyy | yes | 03:21 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: is the physical switch for the wireless connection switched on? | 03:21 |
| BiggFREE | etherealite: No more information for now :( I will check it out Thanks | 03:21 |
| donnkeyyyy | there is no physical switch | 03:21 |
| earthmeLon | mobasher try installing nmap and then issuing "nmap -PN YOURIPHERE" | 03:21 |
| donnkeyyyy | its internal | 03:22 |

| iter | mobasher: cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_all | 03:22 |

| ZykoticK9 | Kerrick, did it work? | 03:23 |
| Kerrick | ZykoticK9, yep | 03:23 |
| earthmeLon | Sorry mobasher. Working from my house and from my server ;\ | 03:23 |
| earthmeLon | mobasher If you're trying to connect locally, make sure you have that allowed | 03:23 |
| donnkeyyyy | ohhh there we go | 03:23 |
| mobasher | earthmeLon, cat thing showed 0 | 03:23 |
| olskolirc | save your setting in the volume control properities to keep on boot samuel2010 | 03:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kerrick, cool - good to know that works for sshfs as well (I assumed it would, but you know what happens when you assume ;) | 03:23 |

| iter | mobasher: iptables -L | 03:24 |

| samuel2010 | olskolirc, how do i save? there is no option in alsamixer to save~ | 03:24 |
| earthmeLon | cat thing? just nmap -PN 74.13.96.145 | 03:24 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: now try sudo rfkill list | 03:24 |
| iter | earthmeLon: he was talking to me | 03:24 |

| iter | mobasher: can you ping out? | 03:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kerrick, my guess would be ~/.gvfs | 03:24 |
| iter | mobasher: from that machine | 03:24 |
| mobasher | iter, yea i can | 03:25 |
| donnkeyyyy | rockhopper it takes me back to a new line | 03:25 |
| samuel2010 | olskolirc, system > preferences > sound that area there? | 03:25 |
| mobasher | iter, i just pinged yahoo it worked | 03:25 |
| donnkeyyyy | it asked for a password and i typed it in, and it just went to another line | 03:25 |
| iter | mobasher: first guess is a firewall of some sort | 03:25 |

| rockhopper | did it show anything like soft blocked or hardblocked donnkeyyyy ? | 03:25 |
| Kerrick | ZykoticK9, OK, now how do I edit it? | 03:26 |
| donnkeyyyy | rockhopper no | 03:26 |
| mobasher | iter, earthmeLon can't ping to it then i'm sure there's something wrong (ip is: 74.13.96.145 | 03:26 |
| Kerrick | I can't rename it or anything. | 03:26 |
| Kerrick | ZykoticK9, nvm figured it out | 03:26 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kerrick, ;) | 03:26 |
| earthmeLon | ping isn't a good test of availability, mobasher. Most routers and lots of servers block ping requests | 03:26 |
| Kerrick | Did it inside Nautilus window instead | 03:26 |
| iter | mobasher: can you ssh to it and ping 127.0.0.1 | 03:26 |
| Kerrick | Right click in Places menu only re-opens it | 03:26 |
| mbrigdan | Anyone know if there is a firewall that will let me see the connections that are established through my computer (When it's acting as a router)? | 03:27 |
| iter | mobasher: also might try ping 74.13.96.145 from the same machine | 03:27 |
| mobasher | iter, it's not a LAN pc..it's on the net | 03:27 |
| mobasher | iter, not there otherwise i would try to ping to it | 03:27 |
| iter | mobasher: it's connected to both the Internet and to your LAN, correct? (it's a router, right) | 03:27 |
| mobasher | iter, no i'm at home that's office router 20 KM away | 03:28 |
| sacarlson | mobasher: I can't ping 74.13.96.145 from here eater. | 03:28 |

| Izinucs | mobasher: can you ssh to a machine on that remote lan? | 03:28 |
| === look_ is now known as look | ||
| olskolirc | snoop around in there samuel2010 there should be checked to save sound settings on boot or you wont be able to keep it | 03:28 |
| samuel2010 | olskolirc, i upgraded to 10.10 a couple days ago and i didnt see the sound option since then haha | 03:29 |
| Izinucs | mobasher: next time you're there setup dyndns.com in case the ip changes again.. | 03:29 |
| sacarlson | mobasher: I think you need a dns like http://no-ip.com | 03:29 |
| samuel2010 | ill have to find it get it back then have a look ~ | 03:29 |
| iter | mobasher: when I nmap it I only see vnc running | 03:29 |

| mobasher | iter, that's really wierd | 03:31 |

| olskolirc | mobasher, TeamViewer makes a teamviewer for Linux users now - it has many remote control options and vnc | 03:32 |

| mobasher | iter, hmm..nothing popuped here | 03:33 |
| iter | mobasher: well, if you have a vnc client you could probably try connecting directly to that IP | 03:33 |
| mobasher | iter, i'm using mozilla maybe i have to turn java ON | 03:34 |
| sacarlson | mobasher: maybe you need java installed? | 03:34 |
| jdef | whats the command to see the process tree? | 03:34 |

| mobasher | luck | 03:44 |
| iter | mobasher: 9.04 is vnc client or 74.13.96.145 | 03:45 |
| mobasher | 9.04 is my PC ubuntu ..connecting to windows | 03:45 |
| mobasher | iter, i just removed ccsm from my PC | 03:46 |
| Izinucs | ubuntu: use your windows disk to do that. that package is no longer in the repositories that I can find.. are you eliminating ubuntu? or just want the windows bootloader instead of grub? | 03:46 |
| renedox | are you using vncserver or vncviewer to log in remotely? | 03:46 |
| renedox | should be vncviewer | 03:46 |
| ubuntu | Izinucs, its oem doesnt come with a disk its partitioned in | 03:46 |
| donnkeyyyy | man I cant even install what ubuntu already had! | 03:46 |
| pfifo | please, someone must know, how to install nvidia binary drives from cli (im using ubuntu 8.04.4 base with fluxbox and xfce so i dont have System->Administration -> Hardware Drivers) | 03:46 |
| Izinucs | ubuntu: so why do you want the windows boot loader? | 03:46 |
| donnkeyyyy | im trying to reload the network manager and it says it has to redownload it | 03:47 |
| ubuntu | Izinucs, i turned on my laptop and it gave me that error and my bootloader is gone, i need to reinstall it to use my windows | 03:47 |
| ubuntu | but i know nothing of ubuntu to do it Izinucs | 03:47 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: lol | 03:47 |
| renedox | pfifo: you can download the drivers from nvidia.com then install it | 03:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | pfifo, assuming you can use the current driver just use "sudo apt-get install nvidia-current" or you could try running "jockey" which is Hardware Drivers executable | 03:47 |
| donnkeyyyy | rockhopper lol | 03:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | pfifo, don't download the drivers unless you really need to - using apt is much more supported (at least here) | 03:48 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: I never got problems with wifi other than getting hardblocked!! | 03:48 |
| Izinucs | pfifo: download the correct driver.. sudo apt-get install build-essential .. look in synaptic for the correct linux-headers for your kernel .. then sudo chmod +x <nvidia driver file> .. then .. ctrl+alt+F2 .. login .. sudo gdm stop .. then ..sudo /.NVI<the rest of the file name for the driver> | 03:48 |
| donnkeyyyy | your lucky rock | 03:48 |
| Izinucs | ubuntu: when you installed ubuntu did you do a dual boot setup? | 03:49 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: In that case, i just boot windows and enable wireless | 03:49 |
| ubuntu | Izinucs, didnt install ubuntu | 03:49 |
| pfifo | ZykoticK9, Izinucs, renedox thanks | 03:49 |
| donnkeyyyy | I prefer ubuntu because its much faster | 03:49 |
| Izinucs | ubuntu: so you're just trying to use the live cd to fix your current windows install? | 03:49 |
| Dice-Man | mandriva is pretty too | 03:49 |
| donnkeyyyy | windows is slow as anything | 03:49 |
| ubuntu | Izinucs, yes | 03:49 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: and ubuntu takes way too less resources compared to win 7 or vista | 03:50 |
| donnkeyyyy | exacltly | 03:50 |
| donnkeyyyy | and internet is soo fast | 03:50 |
| guest0001 | i'm using ubuntu 10.04 and i can't play youtube videos with totem media player, can someone please help? | 03:50 |
| donnkeyyyy | firefox takes about 5 seconds in windows to load | 03:50 |
| Izinucs | ubuntu: without that file available I'm not sure what you can do other than use the live cd to save off all your data and then use the recovery partition to reinstall windows fresh.. you might ask in ##windows | 03:51 |
| donnkeyyyy | in ubunti a little less than 2 | 03:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | guest0001, youtube changed something a while ago, and i believe it broke Totem (and other players/downloaders)... i have no suggestions other then, don't use Totem right now (there could be a solution, i just don't know it) | 03:51 |
| ubuntu | Izinucs, i can not acces the recovery partition | 03:51 |
| guest0001 | thank you very much | 03:52 |
| rockhopper | donnkeyyyy: I'd rather use chrome, it loads faster and takes lesser resources | 03:52 |
| donnkeyyyy | the internet browser rockhopper? | 03:52 |
| Izinucs | ubuntu: why? it's usually a hot key combination | 03:52 |

| donnkeyyyy | on my laptop it installed itself automatically and worked instantly | 03:59 |

| Livin4Jesus | I've tried everything. | 04:21 |

| Blue1 | Livin4Jesus: have you tried another bootable cd? | 04:21 |

| ZykoticK9 | mobasher, are you using xchat or xchat-gnome? | 04:32 |
| mobasher_ | xchat | 04:32 |
| mobasher_ | i like this better than that | 04:33 |
| lulu7 | latagore: if your drivers are installed, you may need to edit the CMD line in your grub file. | 04:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | mobasher, Xchat menu at top, then Network List - then follow maco's directions | 04:33 |
| Livin4Jesus | I'm trying to use RawWrite to force the computer to boot from the CD-ROM, but it's asking for a Image file (*.img), but where would that be? | 04:33 |
| latagore | lulu7: I wouldn't know how to check if my drivers are installed | 04:33 |
| mobasher_ | ZykoticK9, u da man...i hated this stupid thing kept coming up for no reason | 04:34 |
| Blue1 | Livin4Jesus: this begs the queston - what are you using to created the livecd (software wise?) | 04:34 |
| lulu7 | living4jesus: It sounds like the ISO was not burned right | 04:34 |
| ridin | my internet is very slow. | 04:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | mobasher, lol really maco is "da man" teehee | 04:35 |
| maco | ZykoticK9: except not a man :P | 04:35 |
| Livin4Jesus | Blue1: Nero SmartStart. | 04:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | maco, i know thus the "teehee" | 04:35 |
| mobasher_ | ZykoticK9, naaa buddy u have to take credit for this one...u were like a hawk there :) | 04:35 |
| Blue1 | Livin4Jesus: that works quite well, but I dont use the smart start... | 04:35 |
| latagore | How can I check if the hardware on my computer has drivers installed for them? | 04:36 |
| Livin4Jesus | <Blue1> Livin4Jesus: that works quite well, but I dont use the smart start... <---- Should I use a different burner instead? | 04:36 |
| mobasher_ | maco...ops i did it again lmao | 04:36 |
| Blue1 | Livin4Jesus: I would use the nero cd burning rom or k3b | 04:37 |
| Livin4Jesus | OK. | 04:37 |
| mobasher_ | maco..hard to know sometimes u know...names are deceiving here :) | 04:37 |
| Blue1 | Livin4Jesus: have a nero linux express here (linux) | 04:37 |
| Livin4Jesus | Ah. | 04:37 |
| ipv5 | howdy | 04:38 |
| Blue1 | Livin4Jesus: burning an iso image is differenty then copying the files | 04:38 |
| mobasher_ | howdy | 04:38 |
| ipv5 | lookin to setup a postfix virtual users/domains setup. any opinions as to dovecot vs. courier? | 04:39 |
| Blue1 | Livin4Jesus: do you have k3b installed? | 04:39 |
| dpac_ | Livin4Jesus: k3b works good | 04:39 |
| * renedox agrees with k3b | 04:39 | |
| Livin4Jesus | Oh, guess I'll install that. :) | 04:39 |
| Facepalmx2 | Hey guys. I'm looking for a alternative for Winamp, I found a few like streamtuner, but it crashes without even trying to do anything. Does anyone have any suggestions? (I'm trying to run an internet radio stream) | 04:39 |
| Blue1 | Livin4Jesus: cool then we can talk you through burning the image. | 04:40 |
| Livin4Jesus | <Blue1> Livin4Jesus: do you have k3b installed? <------ Isn't that for Linux? | 04:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | Facepalmx2, audacious is similar to old-school winamp | 04:40 |
| Blue1 | Livin4Jesus: yes but I also have nero both windows and linux installed | 04:40 |
| Livin4Jesus | <Blue1> Livin4Jesus: yes but I also have nero both windows and linux installed <---- ? | 04:41 |
| Blue1 | wow a parrot | 04:41 |
| Livin4Jesus | What's KDE? | 04:41 |
| latagore | How can I check if my hardware has drivers? | 04:41 |
| ridin | my internet is very slow. | 04:41 |
| sinman | hi Blue1 | 04:41 |
| Blue1 | Livin4Jesus: kde is another desktop environment | 04:41 |
| Livin4Jesus | Is it Windows? | 04:41 |
| Facepalmx2 | ZykoticK9, actually I skipped right over that alt.. I don't see anywhere that I could put in stream information | 04:41 |
| Livin4Jesus | :/ | 04:41 |
| maco | Livin4Jesus: no | 04:41 |
| lulu7 | KDE is like Gnome | 04:42 |
| wend | Based on QT. | 04:42 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, lshw to see hardware | 04:42 |
| Livin4Jesus | :( | 04:42 |
| dpac_ | !kde | Livin4Jesus | 04:42 |
| ubottu | Livin4Jesus: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . See http://kubuntu.org for more information. For more information on KDE 4, see !kde4 | 04:42 |
| wend | Not GTK | 04:42 |
| Livin4Jesus | Well, how would I install it? | 04:42 |
| maco | Livin4Jesus: its the desktop, menus, default apps, etc in kubuntu (see http://kubuntu.org) as opposed to gnome which does those things for ubuntu | 04:42 |
| dpac_ | lulu7: KDE is nothing like Gnome | 04:42 |
| Blue1 | ridin: maybe if you would be more specfiic someone would help. saying my internet is slow, is like saying my car won't start. battery could be dead, out of gas, or 1000 other things...... | 04:42 |
| maco | Livin4Jesus: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 04:42 |
| latagore | mobasher_: What about the drivers? | 04:42 |
| maco | dpac_: its a corollary to it | 04:42 |
| lulu7 | Not in comparison, but as Blue1 said, another desktop environment | 04:43 |
| Livin4Jesus | <maco> Livin4Jesus: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop <---- I don't have Linux. Just Windows. | 04:43 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, you will see all just use | grep | 04:43 |
| ridin | Blue1: downloading is slow, and i need to have a video loading on youtube to make it start, i want a older kernel, but 10.04 doesn't have it. | 04:43 |
| dpac_ | maco: Yeah, got it | 04:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | Facepalmx2, right click - Open Location (or Ctrl+L) | 04:43 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, like >>> lshw | grep vga | 04:43 |
| maco | Livin4Jesus: oh. um in that case check kde.org there is kde for windows | 04:43 |
| latagore | mobasher_: Okay | 04:43 |
| maco | Livin4Jesus: why are you asking in here about stuff if your on windows though? | 04:43 |
| maco | s/your/you're/ | 04:44 |
| Blue1 | ridin: okay but are we talking a wired internet, wireless, what? i mean we can play 20 question if you'd like but frankly, I've not the time, nor inclination. | 04:44 |
| kevdog | anybody here that knows me? | 04:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | mobasher, latagore "lspci | grep -i vga" | 04:44 |
| Facepalmx2 | ZykoticK9, that would read a stream. I'm looking to host a stream. | 04:44 |
| ridin | Blue1: wireless usb adapter, ralink rt2500 or rt73usb | 04:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | Facepalmx2, ahhh sorry, no idea then. | 04:44 |
| Blue1 | ridin: thank you! | 04:44 |
| Livin4Jesus | btw, I burned the contents of the ISO, not the ISO file. | 04:44 |
| Blue1 | Livin4Jesus: you need to burn the iso file not the contents | 04:45 |
| Facepalmx2 | Okay thanks ZykoticK9 :P Another question, do you happen to know why the bluetooth on a dell studio 1737 might not be working with Ubuntu 10.10? | 04:45 |
| mobasher_ | ZykoticK9, i was just showing him grep..lol | 04:45 |
| Livin4Jesus | <Blue1> Livin4Jesus: you need to burn the iso file not the contents <----- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromCD | 04:45 |
| lulu7 | Living4Jesus: the ISO needs to be saved as an Image if I remember right (there would be an option) Magic ISO also burns ISO images | 04:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | mobasher, ahh just the vga wouldn't work without the -i for case insensitive, sorry ;) | 04:45 |
| |Sacred| | or just use imgburn, it's free | 04:45 |
| Livin4Jesus | OK. | 04:45 |
| mobasher_ | ZykoticK9, hehee | 04:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | Facepalmx2, no idea, but you should ask in #ubuntu+1 for 10.10 questions | 04:46 |
| Facepalmx2 | Okay thanks :) | 04:46 |
| sinman | Livin4Jesus: when i was using windows I use imgburn does a great job burning iso images to blank disk | 04:46 |
| maco | Livin4Jesus: microsoft has a powertoy for windows to burn iso's too | 04:47 |
| wend | Livin4Jesus: You can install Ubuntu from ISO on harddisk | 04:47 |
| Livin4Jesus | <wend> Livin4Jesus: You can install Ubuntu from ISO on harddisk <----- How? | 04:47 |
| Facepalmx2 | Livin4Jesus, you could use Wubi. | 04:48 |
| Livin4Jesus | Can I install the full version from there? | 04:48 |
| lulu7 | Windows XP though | 04:48 |
| Blue1 | ridin: this might be relevant: http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=213581 | 04:48 |
| kevdog | what --- winxp -- what's the problem | 04:48 |
| Livin4Jesus | OK, installing Wubi. | 04:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | Facepalmx2, WUBI is good for initial testing of ubuntu, to see if someone likes it, but it's a poor "install" alternative... | 04:48 |
| Livin4Jesus | Gotta shut down soon, though. | 04:49 |
| Facepalmx2 | ZykoticK9, that's true. But for some people, it's the only alternative if someone doesn't have a cd/dvd available. Had to do that for a while :/ | 04:49 |
| wend | Not wubi | 04:49 |
| ridin | Blue1: no. it works on older versions of ubuntu, and i can connect, just painfully slow and frustrating | 04:49 |
| Blue1 | ridin: I had problems with an atheros drive, backporting solved the issue | 04:49 |
| Blue1 | ridin: let me find the article hang on | 04:50 |
| kevdog | hate wubi | 04:50 |
| sinman | what #ubuntu channel for the 10.10 | 04:50 |
| wend | Livin4Jesus: Copy the ISO into drive C: of windows | 04:50 |
| maco | Blue1: linux-backports-modules-lucid-generic? | 04:50 |
| maco | sinman: #ubuntu+1 | 04:50 |
| Blue1 | ridin: maco: http://pkill-9.com/wordpress/?p=152 YMMV applies | 04:50 |
| sinman | maco: thanxs couldn't remeber it. | 04:50 |
| Livin4Jesus | wend: OK, it's copying. | 04:50 |
| offsense01 | what the gnome-shell do actually? | 04:51 |
| Blue1 | ridin: let me see what's on my ftp | 04:51 |
| kevdog | I used to run daemon tools in windows that could run iso files directly. alcohol52% is another option for free to run ISO files | 04:51 |
| Livin4Jesus | wend: Done. | 04:51 |
| maco | Blue1: yep same thing i said. though 31 = karmic, not lucid... | 04:51 |
| latagore | mobasher_: I don't see the purpose for grep; it only shows me the line it is on | 04:51 |
| wend | Livin4Jesus: get menu.lst and initrd.lz from the ISO. | 04:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | latagore, grep is used to search inside a document/stream/etc for the occurrence of X | 04:52 |
| canbula | also magicdisk is a free alternative | 04:52 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, just use either lspci or lshw > output.txt then you can go thru the details of the drivers there | 04:52 |
| Blue1 | ridin: I have some old 9.10 distros here: ftp://wayno.ath.cx/LINUX/UBUNTU/9.10/ | 04:52 |
| kevdog | or lspci | 04:53 |
| kevdog | lspci | more | 04:53 |
| ridin | Blue1: i already have 9.10 based distro on this hd. | 04:53 |
| wend | Livin4Jesus: Edit the menu.lst | 04:53 |
| Blue1 | ridin: and you tried the backporting exercise? | 04:53 |
| latagore | mobasher_: I don't see anything on the driver though D: | 04:53 |
| ridin | Blue1: i tried with that link you provided, no go, yes before you showed me | 04:53 |
| Blue1 | ridin: and you rebooted after doing that, yes? | 04:54 |
| Livin4Jesus | wend: Where do I find them? | 04:54 |
| ridin | Blue1: yes. | 04:54 |
| wend | title Install Ubuntu Harddisk Install | 04:54 |
| wend | root (hd0,0) | 04:54 |
| wend | kernel /vmlinuz boot=casper iso-scan/filename=/Ubuntu YOUR ISO.iso ro quiet splash | 04:54 |
| wend | initrd /initrd.lz | 04:54 |
| wend | boot | 04:54 |
| FloodBot1 | wend: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:54 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, what are you specifically looking for ?? | 04:54 |
| Blue1 | ridin: best I can do, someone more experienced then I might be able to help, sorry. | 04:54 |
| Livin4Jesus | Uh, actually, I have to log off. We'll continue this tomorrow, K? | 04:54 |
| Livin4Jesus | Good Night! | 04:55 |
| latagore | mobasher_: I asked "How can I check if my hardware has drivers?" | 04:56 |
| latagore | mobasher_: quite a few times D: | 04:56 |
| wend | Bye | 04:56 |
| dpac_ | latagore: If your hardware works, it has drivers. | 04:57 |
| bovine | any ideas why this line "mount -t cifs -o uid=1000 //192.168.1.106/Drobo /media/drobo" would be considered bad in fstab when using "sudo mount -a" to get some sort of verbage from ubuntu to find out why my drobo isnt mounting on boot up? just recently upgraded to 10.04 | 04:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | latagore, what hardware? most hardware is supported by the linux kernel and you don't need to add any drivers. for other stuff, especially graphics cards and wireless - first check System / Admin / Hardware. Does your hardware work? If yes - then you have drivers already. | 04:57 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, as I said before what hardware are you trying to see drivers for ?? | 04:58 |
| _Techie_ | is there a way to stop 10.04 prompting me for the keyring password when connecting to the wireless at boot? | 04:59 |
| latagore | ZykoticK9: Well my hardware DOESN'T work, otherwise I wouldn't be asking | 04:59 |
| ChogyDan | _Techie_: blank out your master password | 04:59 |
| latagore | mobasher_: Oh, sorry, wireless adapter | 04:59 |
| gryllida | I can't install ca-certificates-java , Ubuntu Hardy, trying `apt-get install ca-certificates-java` as root and getting http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/490138/ ? how do I fix it? | 04:59 |
| gryllida | ... | 05:00 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, sudo lshw | grep ATI | 05:00 |
| ChogyDan | _Techie_: Apps > Acces > Passwords... | 05:00 |
| mobasher_ | ops sorry | 05:00 |

| latagore | mobasher_: Just a moment | 05:01 |

| Plecebo | also can't create a dir under /media/udb | 05:04 |
| latagore | Mobasher_: doesn't it need quotes | 05:04 |
| sinman | ZykoticK9: thanxs | 05:04 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, try with a sudo in the front | 05:04 |
| Plecebo | *us | 05:04 |

| masterBIGwilly | where can i get all the sourc ecodes for all the utiltiies found in /bin? | 05:06 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, don't worrya about ATI | 05:06 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, that was example anyway | 05:06 |
| ipv5 | hey, i just restarted mysql on this new 10.04 box and see it telling me not to use /etc/init.d/mysql, but rather 'service mysql restart' or even just 'restart mysql' ...what's the deal? are these idioms pervasive? that is...can i use them on everything? | 05:06 |
| mobasher_ | dpac_ ZykoticK9 ...latagore is not able to find his wireless in lshw can you help please :) | 05:06 |
| Flynsarmy | What's the best app for drawing visual database diagrams? forgot the technical term. table structures and links between them | 05:07 |
| mobasher_ | Flynsarmy, dia | 05:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | mobasher_, lshw doesn't work to find wireless on my system either! latagore try "lspci | grep -i ethernet" | 05:07 |
| masterBIGwilly | where can i get the source codes for the shell utilities ?? like sh scripts etc | 05:07 |
| dpac_ | latagore: lspci and paste the output in pastebin | 05:08 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, don't use the qoutes "" | 05:08 |
| Flynsarmy | mobasher_: can it hook into mysql and automatically generate teh tables or is ther eone that does that? | 05:08 |
| kevdog | ZykoticK9: What are you looking for | 05:08 |
| mobasher_ | Flynsarmy, not sure mate you have to read about it check it out on the net for docs | 05:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | kevdog, latagore & mobasher_ are trying to find a wireless card of some sort | 05:08 |
| kevdog | lshw -C network | 05:09 |
| mobasher_ | ZykoticK9, latagore is having problems finding his wireless card for which he wants to see the drivers are installed or not | 05:09 |
| latagore | ZykoticK9: No output | 05:09 |
| latagore | ZykoticK, mobasher: I can find it in lspci... | 05:09 |
| lulu7 | latagore: no output for lspci | grep Ethernet ? | 05:09 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, as dpac said paste your lspci to pastebin | 05:10 |
| kevdog | so that tells me you are missing a driver? or is it a usb device? lsusb | 05:10 |
| mobasher_ | !pastebin | 05:10 |

| ZykoticK9 | LOL - lshw just locked up my system | 05:11 |
| mobasher_ | latagore, you need to paste your output to PASTEBIN website so he can determine what you see on your hardware (http;//pastebin.com) | 05:11 |
| latagore | dpac_: I'm not running IRC on the computer I have problems with... considering wireless/ethernet is the exact problem we are trying to solve... | 05:11 |
| bovine | any ideas why this line "mount -t cifs -o uid=1000 //192.168.1.106/Drobo /media/drobo" would be considered bad in fstab when using "sudo mount -a" to get some sort of verbage from ubuntu to find out why my drobo isnt mounting on boot up? just recently upgraded to 10.04 | 05:12 |
| mobasher_ | ZykoticK9, lol | 05:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | latagore, if "lspci | grep -i ethernet" didn't return anything that suggests it doesn't see either wired or wireless cards in your system (exactly the problem you seem to be experiencing) | 05:12 |
| kevdog | Well run the ethernet on that computer | 05:13 |
| bovine | the line works flawlessly using just "sudo" on it in terminal | 05:13 |
| dpac_ | latagore: I guess, you'll have to type the pastebin url then. :) | 05:13 |
| mobasher_ | ZykoticK9, the pc must be saying what the fish r u looking for i have got it all installed perfectly fine..lol | 05:13 |
| kevdog | sudo lspci -nn | 05:13 |
| coldguy | bovine: that line is a terminal command, fstab has a different format | 05:13 |
| latagore | ZykoticK9: I found my ethernet + wireless by manually searching | 05:13 |
| coldguy | someting like: //192.168.1.106/Drobo /media/drobo cifs uid=1000 | 05:13 |
| bovine | coldguy: the entry worked fine in ubuntu 9. its only been since i upgraded has it been an issue | 05:14 |
| nimbiotics | hello all. Is there a channel for quand estions on magicjack & mjproxy? TIA | 05:14 |
| bovine | hrm | 05:14 |
| coldguy | bovine: dunno, never seen an actual command in an fstab before | 05:14 |
| coldguy | just the "# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>" format | 05:14 |
| hanasaki | how can I get motd to update? it still says 783 packages can be updated. | 05:15 |
| hanasaki | but I have done a dist-upgrade | 05:15 |
| kevdog | sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade | 05:15 |
| bovine | that leads to the next half of my issue. i can use this line "//192.168.1.106/Drobo /media/drobo cifs rw,username=X,password=X 0 0" and it mounts but any file i create has the lock icon and the perms are set to --- | 05:15 |
| WXZ | anyway I can change a files metadata? | 05:15 |
| latagore | mobasher_: Fudgesicles, caps matter -.- | 05:16 |
| bovine | now if i reboot and have that lien commented out and do a normal mount command any of the files that were previously locked are readable and can be modified fully... oO | 05:16 |
| nimbiotics | hello all. Is there a channel for questions on magicjack & mjproxy? TIA | 05:16 |
| coldguy | you have to add your uid=1000 option onto the username=X,password=X | 05:16 |
| coldguy | so username=X,password=X,uid=1000 | 05:16 |

| ZykoticK9 | related to what hanasaki asked, i went looking for my motd file - it's a dead link motd -> /var/run/motd and /var/run/motd doesn't exist - does anyone using 10.04 have this file? and/or know why it's missing? | 05:20 |
| hanasaki | ZykoticK9: wish I could he'll p LOL .. have an answer for me? | 05:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | hanasaki, sorry no... what version of Ubuntu are you using? | 05:21 |
| hanasaki | current | 05:21 |
| bovine | coldguy: freakin A, that worked. :) thanks man; this has been driving me nuts for about a week | 05:22 |
| mobasher_ | Colloguy, what stuff r u looking for just surfing ? | 05:22 |
| mobasher_ | Colloguy, check out Tor or Privoxy i think that's what it's called | 05:22 |
| Vespertina | Hiya.... Wow, lots of users. >.> | 05:23 |
| Vespertina | (First time here, folks.) | 05:23 |
| Roasted_ | can back in time back up files to a network resource? It seems to me it can only back up to local disks connected to the machine. | 05:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | !hi | Vespertina | 05:23 |
| ubottu | Vespertina: 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! | 05:23 |
| hanasaki | ZykoticK9: the current.. 10.4.1 | 05:23 |
| Colloguy | mobasher_: hrm maybe #tor, but I know none of these exist: #eff, #privacy, #privoxy, ... | 05:23 |
| bovine | <=== mostly newb as well. been using ubuntu for about a year or so | 05:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | hanasaki, i assumed | 05:23 |
| mobasher_ | Colloguy, google it bro...r u on ubuntu or ?? | 05:24 |
| Vespertina | I'm trying to get Ubuntu (Aurora precisely) running on my Eee PC. Would this be the most appropriate channel, or should I join something a little more specific? | 05:24 |
| mobasher_ | Colloguy, you won't find no channel for such things | 05:24 |
| mobasher_ | Colloguy, i think you do "sudo apt-get install tor" | 05:24 |
| mobasher_ | just visit tor website | 05:24 |
| WXZ | how can I change the metadata of a file? | 05:25 |
| xangua | Vespertina: aurora is not ubuntu, there is a support forum in it's web | 05:25 |
| mobasher_ | Colloguy, http://www.torproject.org/ | 05:25 |
| Vespertina | I thought it was a derivative, originally known as Eeeubuntu... Maybe I'm wrong? | 05:25 |
| mobasher_ | have a good night everyone...see ya tomorrow ;-) cheers | 05:26 |
| mobasher_ | thanks all for the help and support ;-) | 05:26 |
| tensorpudding | This channel doesn't deal with all Ubuntu derivatives, anyway. | 05:26 |
| Vespertina | The installation process compared to another Ubuntu installation tutorial seems identical. | 05:26 |
| Vespertina | I see... | 05:26 |
| Plecebo | Anyone know why I seem to have lost the ability to mkdir with the root account? | 05:26 |
| Vespertina | I was just wondering if anyone was familiar with the grub-install error. Because that's where I got stuck. | 05:26 |
| bovine | Plecebo: what kind of error do you get? | 05:27 |
| tensorpudding | Plecebo: Do you have write permission in the directory? | 05:27 |
| Loshki | Colloguy: uh, perhaps ##security. Disclaimer: i've never used it myself... | 05:28 |
| Plecebo | bovine, permission deneid | 05:29 |
| Plecebo | tensorpudding, sudo mkdir /media/usb gives permission denied | 05:29 |
| tensorpudding | Plecebo: there is a decent chance that the usb was mounted read-only | 05:30 |
| Plecebo | tensorpudding, I have tried formatting and unmounting /remounting and it won't mount | 05:30 |
| tensorpudding | use mount to check the mount options for all mounted filesystems | 05:30 |
| Plecebo | tensorpudding, ultimately I'd just like to create a usb startup disk, but I'm not able to | 05:31 |
| Plecebo | tensorpudding, mount doesn't say anything about the usb device | 05:32 |
| vanirahto | hi all.. | 05:32 |
| tensorpudding | In order to make a directory on the filesystem it needs to be mounted. | 05:32 |
| tensorpudding | What error does it give when you try to mount it? | 05:32 |
| chris_osx | what tool should i use to create a bootable usb stick? | 05:33 |
| Vespertina | Oh.... | 05:35 |
| Vespertina | I can tell you how to make a USB startup disk... | 05:35 |
| glick | hey is there an ubuntu utility that will let me join a split up zip file? | 05:35 |
| Plecebo | tensorpudding, sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usb | 05:37 |
| Plecebo | mount: mount point /media/usb does not exist | 05:37 |
| rafter | chris_osx i used uni-usb -install to make a live session bootable usb | 05:37 |
| Plecebo | tensorpudding, sudo mkdir /media/usb | 05:37 |
| Plecebo | mkdir: cannot create directory `/media/usb': Permission denied | 05:37 |
| tensorpudding | what are the permissions on /media | 05:38 |
| Plecebo | tensorpudding, drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 2010-08-24 19:04 media | 05:38 |
| tensorpudding | does /media/usb exist? | 05:39 |
| Plecebo | tensorpudding, no it does not | 05:40 |
| chris_osx | cool got it | 05:40 |
| detcader|laptop | What is the best way to browse file directories like these: http://asterix.msp.univie.ac.at/ | 05:40 |
| chris_osx | i overlooked usb-creator | 05:40 |
| detcader|laptop | besides using a browser | 05:40 |
| tensorpudding | that doesn't much make sense then | 05:40 |
| Plecebo | tensorpudding, I'm certainly stumped | 05:40 |
| rafter | Plecebo what dev is your usb in /etc/fstab ex. /dev/sda1 | 05:41 |
| rafter | chriss_osx good | 05:41 |
| bovine | thanks again for the help folks ^_^ you guys are great | 05:42 |
| Plecebo | rafter, fstab pastebin: http://pastebin.com/nFS6VYXE | 05:42 |
| Plecebo | rafter, I don't see the usb in there | 05:43 |
| Roasted_ | just tried to run gksudo nautilus and it said unable to because of xauthorization file - uhhh?????????????? | 05:43 |
| Ububegin | Hi, what is the way to enable java applets in firefox.. Using Ubuntu 10.04.. I have already installed java.. Googling didnt help.. thanks | 05:43 |
| ubuntu_ | hi im working on a friends laptop and im booted up with a live usb stick i ran the disk utility program and it said that a few sectors on the harddrive are bad is the hd still stable to use? | 05:44 |
| ubuntu_ | i mean i know theres an increased chance of data lose but should i tell him to think about buying a new one? | 05:45 |
| grumbly | hey, I'm having some interesting weirdness with my mouse... | 05:45 |
| grumbly | i'm on an asus laptop | 05:45 |
| rdw200169 | ubuntu_, considering the amazing cheap-ness of drives nowadays, its probably safer just to replace it... | 05:45 |
| rafter | Plecebo your / is on sda1 is that what u booted from | 05:45 |
| ubuntu_ | alright well thanks for the advice i'll see what he says. | 05:46 |
| Plecebo | rafter, correct | 05:46 |
| masterBIGwilly | where cna i get shell source files for the utilities? | 05:46 |
| rdw200169 | ubuntu_ you could also check the S.M.A.R.T. information on the drive to get more in depth diagnostic information | 05:46 |
| masterBIGwilly | in the shell | 05:46 |
| rjb | where can i get an ubuntu 10.10 advertisement, i want to add it to my site | 05:47 |
| dpac_ | masterBIGwilly: What do you mean by that? | 05:47 |
| rafter | Plecebo i believe that is your usb | 05:47 |
| samuel2010 | rjb, Is there none on the website? | 05:47 |
| ubuntu_ | thats what im gonna do right now i'll tell u how it turns out. | 05:48 |
| rjb | samuel2010: i havent found one yet | 05:48 |
| masterBIGwilly | dpac_, i want the shell source codes for utilities like ls and cd etc | 05:48 |
| masterBIGwilly | dpac_, is it even possible to get that? | 05:48 |
| Plecebo | rafter, according to the disk utility /dev/sda is my ssd (boot disk) and /dev/sdb is my usb drive | 05:48 |
| dpac_ | masterBIGwilly: Those are compiled binary files. try this: cat `which ls` | 05:48 |
| samuel2010 | rjb, well its still in testing so maybe it wont be available untill its out 10.10.10... might have to wait till then or open gimp and make ur own !! im also using 10.10 and its too buggy i think to advertise. it needs to be tested a lot yet... | 05:49 |
| grumbly | with 2.632-X, trackpad is recognized as a PS2 mouse. no trackpad options... With 2.6.35 it is recognized as a trackpad but it behaves soooo weird... it will randomly start acting like i'm twofingering | 05:49 |
| rdw200169 | rjb or you could look at this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/MaverickCountdownBanner | 05:49 |
| rjb | samuel2010 rdw200169 thank you | 05:49 |
| masterBIGwilly | dpac_ doesn't work | 05:49 |
| grumbly | or that i'm scrolling in a direction other than the way i'm going... in the middle of the scrollings | 05:50 |
| Ububegin | Hi, what is the way to enable java applets in firefox.. Using Ubuntu 10.04.. I have already installed java.. Googling didnt help.. thanks | 05:50 |
| dpac_ | masterBIGwilly: It is a part of coreutils. You can download coreutils source to see the source code | 05:50 |
| samuel2010 | rjb, i have 10.10 and i want to go back to 10.04 hehe too many bugs on 10.10. | 05:50 |
| rjb | samuel2010 yes still beta version, i havent tested 10.10, i am a little worried about netbook version and ubiquity | 05:51 |
| rafter | Plecebo ok try this mkdir /home/usb .... mount -t (your filesys) /dev/sdb /home/usb | 05:51 |
| dpac_ | masterBIGwilly: cat /bin/ls | 05:51 |
| samuel2010 | rjb, yeah. i didnt like ubiquity ~ at all.. so if u wanna help the community maybe posting a 10.04 ad would be better :D | 05:52 |
| masterBIGwilly | dpac_, that's not source | 05:52 |
| Plecebo | ahhhh mkdir: cannot create directory `/home/usb': Permission denied | 05:52 |
| masterBIGwilly | that's some wierd binary stuff, dpac_ | 05:52 |
| Plecebo | rafter, that doesn't look good LOL | 05:52 |
| rjb | samuel2010 good idea | 05:52 |
| nowimproved | i am trying to run dolphin-emu and get this error lassInfoE, version WXU_2.8.9 not defined in | 05:52 |
| Plecebo | rafter, so strange, i could create the folder via nautalis | 05:53 |
| BadAssPens | Hello all, I am very new to ubuntu so i will apologize for my ignorance right up front. I have been wading through many web sites trying to figure out how to get vmplayer installed and just cant seem to get it. I am sure my problems are basic commands as I am very unfamiliar with ubuntu/unix/linux or any other such dirrivative. Can anyone help and am i an the right place to be asking these kind of questions? | 05:53 |
| rafter | Plecebo ok whats in /etc/mtab | 05:53 |
| dpac_ | masterBIGwilly: Yep, thats compiled. Here's the source http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/coreutils-8.5.tar.gz | 05:53 |
| Ububegin | Hi, what is the way to enable java applets in firefox.. Using Ubuntu 10.04.. I have already installed java.. Googling didnt help.. thanks | 05:54 |

| Payton | Harrow #ubuntu, I just installed Ubuntu server edition for testing and tried to install Apache, but I was told that the package couldn't be found. I went and looked through Apache's documentation and tried to download the package but couldn't. New to all of this, so I'm sorry if this question's been asked >9000 times before, but does anyone know of a fix or know what I'm doing wrong, so I can get Apache and hopefully LAMP installed? | 05:54 |
| xangua | !java | Ububegin | 05:54 |
| ubottu | Ububegin: To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java. For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 05:54 |
| maco | Payton: its called apache2 | 05:54 |
| ChogyDan | Payton: did you install lamp-server? | 05:55 |
| Payton | maco: sudo apt-get install apache2 | 05:55 |
| Payton | I tried it, no dice | 05:55 |
| maco | Payton: you may want to just install tasksel and use it to select the LAMP Server task | 05:55 |
| rdw200169 | Payton, yeah, tasksel is best | 05:55 |
| Payton | maco: Tried it, didn't work. Let me get the error message | 05:55 |
| rww | Payton: do "sudo apt-get update" if you haven't recently. | 05:55 |
| Ububegin | xangua: i hava already installed java... ( java -version cmd gives me 1.6) | 05:55 |
| maco | Payton: is this a brand new install? you'll ne.... what rww said | 05:55 |
| xangua | BadAssPens: vmplayer¿ i only know mplayer and some fronted (gnome-mplayer, smplayer) | 05:55 |
| xangua | Ububegin: please read the link, have you already installed the browser java plugin¿ | 05:56 |
| hanasaki | what iptables commands are needed to let a computer inside the firewall connect across the internet to a pptp windows server? | 05:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | xangua, perhaps BadAssPens is referring to VMWare Player? | 05:57 |
| rdw200169 | hanasaki thats a pretty wide open question... depends on a lot of things ;) | 05:57 |
| Payton | I tried sudo tanksel install lamp-server - "sudo: tanksel: command not found" - what am I doing wrong? Again, new to this, so... yeah | 05:57 |
| BadAssPens | well some basic stuff the install instructions are asking me to to i cant seem to get to work. It asks me to mount the vmware player bundle file, but i cant even get to the directory its in | 05:57 |
| hanasaki | rdw200169: like what | 05:57 |
| BadAssPens | i can do an ls and look at the directory structure | 05:57 |
| rww | Payton: 1) do "sudo apt-get update", it's probably why it's not finding apache2. 2) It's called tasksel. | 05:57 |
| maco | Payton: spelling it wrong and using it wrong | 05:57 |
| rdw200169 | hanasaki well, what firewall are you running? homebrew iptables? firestarter? | 05:57 |
| BadAssPens | can get to the home directory but it tells me the next directory does not exist yet i can see it | 05:57 |
| hanasaki | rdw200169: homebrew iptables | 05:58 |
| rafter | Plecebo ok i don't see it is there any file system on your usb stick? | 05:58 |
| maco | Payton: with tasksel you just "sudo tasksel" and it gives you a menu. but youd need to install tasksel first and if you havent done apt-get update like rww said, nothing will be installable | 05:58 |
| Payton | rww: ... oh. Yeah, sleep deprivation and such. Thanks for pointing that out | 05:58 |
| rdw200169 | hanasaki well, the most standard firewall configuration is "input deny, output allow" as far a main policy is concerned. thus, there shouldn't be anything stopping you from getting out and accessing whatever you want... | 05:58 |
| Payton | I'll update too | 05:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | BadAssPens, cAsE iS iMpOrTaNt | 05:58 |
| Plecebo | rafter, I have tried various options for the fs, currently there is a fat filesystem, but i've tried with none | 05:59 |
| hanasaki | rdw200169: I want to NAT from internal eth1 to external eth0 | 05:59 |
| rdw200169 | hanasaki is your computer directly attached to the internet connection? usually there is a router performing that task. its not necessary in most situations | 06:00 |
| hanasaki | rdw200169: yes.. and this is the router I wish to configure | 06:00 |
| varun | hello everyone | 06:00 |
| BadAssPens | that helps i had no idea case ment anything being a windows user =) | 06:00 |
| varun | I had a quick question | 06:00 |
| BadAssPens | what does the blue text for folders mean in the terminal window | 06:00 |
| maco | BadAssPens: that theyre folders | 06:01 |
| maco | BadAssPens: its just to make it easier for you to tell when you have lots of stuff which are folders (blue) or executable (green) or symlinks (red) or broken symlinks (red with black background) | 06:01 |
| varun | please direct me to the necessary reading if there is any .The question is that chrome is already installed in my ubuntu intrepid ibex and it the 6 beta | 06:01 |
| maco | varun: intrepid isnt supported | 06:01 |
| rafter | Plecebo put this in /etc/fstab /dev/sda2 vfat auto rw 0 0 | 06:02 |
| masterBIGwilly | maco, where do i get source files for shell utilities?? | 06:02 |
| masterBIGwilly | aren't the commands in the shell... shell scripts? | 06:02 |
| Plecebo | rafter, /dev/sda2? | 06:02 |
| maco | masterBIGwilly: some are | 06:02 |
| BadAssPens | that is great information, the more i learn about ubuntu the more I am liking it, Just an initial difficult change from windows | 06:02 |
| maco | masterBIGwilly: some are built into the shell though | 06:03 |
| BadAssPens | thank you i found the directory i needed | 06:03 |
| rafter | Plecebo yea | 06:03 |
| masterBIGwilly | where could i find those? | 06:03 |
| masterBIGwilly | maco, i'm aware of that | 06:03 |
| rdw200169 | hanasaki, fair enough, NAT is pretty easy to configure, something like `iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --out-interface eth0 -j MASQUERADE | 06:03 |
| BadAssPens | now it says to mount the file, so I just /mnt and file name | 06:03 |
| masterBIGwilly | maco, but many aren't... most aren't correct? | 06:03 |
| ritlee | BadAssPens, congrats ;) | 06:03 |
| maco | masterBIGwilly: you can always type "which command" and itll tell you where they are | 06:03 |
| Plecebo | rafter, according to disk manager that is a container for my extended partition on /dev/sda | 06:03 |
| Plecebo | rafter, putting in fstab | 06:03 |
| === ZNC_DoubleString is now known as DoubleString | ||
| hanasaki | rdw200169: however that NATs EVERYTHING.. not just th eminimum needed for pptp | 06:04 |
| ritlee | BadAssPens, congrats to the move to ubuntu | 06:04 |
| rafter | Plecebo that what the 2 is for a new dev | 06:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | BadAssPens, mount is a command, while /mnt is a location - two very different things! | 06:04 |
| Plecebo | rafter, now sudo mount -a ? | 06:04 |
| maco | Plecebo: yep | 06:05 |
| BadAssPens | does that mean mnt is a directory in the main structure? | 06:05 |
| rafter | Plecebo or mount -t vfat /dev/sda2 /media | 06:05 |
| Plecebo | rafter maco, sudo mount -a | 06:05 |
| Plecebo | mount: mount point vfat does not exist | 06:05 |
| Plecebo | mount.nfs4: /media is busy or already mounted | 06:05 |
| hanasaki | rdw200169: the idea is to only let the min through | 06:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | BadAssPens, correct | 06:05 |
| BadAssPens | ok, ty | 06:06 |
| maco | Plecebo: you did your fstab wrong then. missed a field sounds like | 06:06 |
| rdw200169 | hanasaki i don't understand why your tunnel needs NAT... the pptp encapsulation only requires a path... are you trying to nat the stuff you're throwing down the tunnel? | 06:06 |
| Payton | Went through the updates, then tried to install LAMP, but I'm just getting payton@ubuntu:~$ on a new line | 06:06 |
| hanasaki | rdw200169: what do you mean pptp encapsulation? | 06:07 |
| BadAssPens | what does the -a mean for the mount command | 06:07 |
| maco | BadAssPens: all | 06:07 |
| ChogyDan | Payton: can you pastebin? | 06:07 |
| DoubleString | hey all | 06:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | BadAssPens, "mount -a" is a special mount command to mount everything in your fstab file | 06:07 |
| hanasaki | its internalclient ->firewallNAT(these are the rules to be written)-> internet -> company pptp server | 06:07 |
| Payton | ChogyDan: Yeah, hold on | 06:07 |
| maco | BadAssPens: it tries to mount everything in /etc/fstab that isnt marked "noauto" | 06:07 |
| === alakoo is now known as alakoo_ | ||

| rafter | Plecebo by the way what's in your /media dir? | 06:07 |
| BadAssPens | what does fstab mean? | 06:08 |
| ritlee | BadAssPens, file system table | 06:08 |
| maco | BadAssPens: filesystem table | 06:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | BadAssPens, /etc/fstab is a file that controls what is mounted and where | 06:08 |

| ChogyDan | Payton: try `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install lamp-server^` | 06:10 |
| BadAssPens | ok, still a little fuzzy, but i will check out that manual, i was struggling to find a good simple resource that sounds like it will work | 06:10 |
| Payton | Alright, goin' and tryin' | 06:10 |
| BadAssPens | thank you | 06:10 |
| rafter | Plecebo could your usb fat32 | 06:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | ChogyDan, there is no package lamp-server | 06:10 |
| Plecebo | rafter, you mean I should format to fat32? | 06:11 |
| rafter | Plecebo no | 06:12 |
| Payton | ChogyDan: Looks like I didn't even get to update in the first place, my server's not connecting to the Internet correctly. | 06:12 |
| Plecebo | rafter, sorry, I misunderstood it is fat32 | 06:12 |
| LinuxFetus | Hey I'm running 10.10 Beta or whatever right now. When I first installed 10.04 or whatever, and I would hcange my desktop resolution to something other than my native LED/LCD (whatever my laptop was), it would freak out and my colors would go all funky and blurry and eventually my computer would stop responding. Anyway, I upgraded to 10.10 this morning and it started doing that again...I can't really take a screen shot because I th | 06:12 |
| LinuxFetus | ink it's hardware or firmware or something related because when I make a screan shoot and zoom in, everything appears to be fine (it's hard for me to tell 100% because my colors keep freaking out, but yeah.) Can anyone | 06:12 |
| Payton | i.e. W: Failed to fetch <address> Could not resolve <domain> | 06:12 |
| LinuxFetus | I'm not sure if this part went through: can anyone help me diagnose/treat? | 06:12 |
| dougb | is there a light version of ubuntu 10.04? kind of vanilla, but still has all the hardware support? | 06:13 |

| ZykoticK9 | LinuxFetus, #ubuntu+1 for 10.10 support | 06:13 |
| dli | LinuxFetus, what video card? | 06:13 |
| hoober | how do i make .bundle files install vmplayer like they should. | 06:13 |
| rafter | Plecebo ok try changing vfat to fat32 | 06:13 |

| ChogyDan | Payton: ok, er, can you fix that? I mean, if you want to run apache, you certainly need internet connectivity | 06:13 |

| tesseracter_ | I'm using 2 raid0 64GB SSDs, but baobab and du both say that i'm using about 22gb of space, with only 4 gigs left till they are full. any ideas why its so inaccurate? disk utility shows the partition correctly at 112GB. | 06:14 |
| gorp | [171098.509220] usb 1-7: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice | 06:14 |
| gorp | how can i mount my usb device? it doesn't have a /dev/ name | 06:14 |
| === lerio is now known as scriptwarlock | ||
| tesseracter_ | and the access speed is correctly at 400mb/s, .2 ms access time. | 06:14 |
| rafter | Plecebo and change /dev tosdb1 | 06:14 |
| Payton | ChogyDan: When I went through installation things *seemed* to be working fine, I'm not sure what the problem is. I'll go back and look at my configuration (assuming I don't blow the whole computer up in the process) to see what's wrong | 06:14 |
| rafter | to /dev/sdb1 | 06:15 |
| tensorpudding | tesseracter_: what does df -h say? | 06:15 |
| gorp | help me | 06:15 |
| tensorpudding | gorp: does it appear in dmesg at all | 06:16 |
| mcc | How does one tell if a machine is spending all of its time swapping? Would very high "wa" in top denote this? | 06:16 |
| gorp | tensorpudding: does <what> appear? | 06:16 |
| Plecebo | rafter, sudo mount -a | 06:16 |
| Plecebo | mount: mount point fat32 does not exist | 06:16 |
| Plecebo | mount.nfs4: /media is busy or already mounted | 06:16 |
| hoober | How Do i run .bundle files? I download vmplayer for my 64bit Ubuntu 10.04. But it won't run. | 06:16 |
| gorp | tensorpudding: that was a line pertaining to the device in question from dmesg | 06:16 |
| tensorpudding | gorp: does any information regarding it being inserted, any error messages about it, etc. appear | 06:16 |
| Plecebo | rafter, from my fstab: /dev/sdb1 fat32 auto rw 0 0 | 06:16 |
| gorp | tensorpudding: are you unable to recognize where that line is from? | 06:17 |
| tensorpudding | gorp: i see that line, but i doubt that's the only one, could you paste the full dmesg to a pastebin? | 06:17 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, it says that 103GB are used, 4G available. | 06:17 |
| tensorpudding | tesseracter_: that is for the RAID 0 SSD device? | 06:18 |
| gorp | here are the other two lines | 06:18 |
| rafter | Plecebo ok where back to mkdir | 06:18 |
| gorp | [171082.027558] usb 1-7: USB disconnect, address 9 [171098.376079] usb 1-7: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 10 | 06:18 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, yep, striped, and i see the doubled speed. du says I have 22gb with 4G free, df says I have 103 used and 4G free. | 06:19 |
| Firefishe | I'm using ubuntu 10.04. I notice that I can have two users logged in simultaneously and switch between them efforlessly--using the gnome desktop. However, when I try to do the same in kde (4.4.5), I am only able to get the screen to lock and the re-login prompt. Why can't kde do what gnome does effortlessly? | 06:19 |
| tensorpudding | What options are you invoking du with? | 06:19 |
| Firefishe | heya baz | 06:19 |
| gorp | Firefishe: because you didn't configure it how to do that | 06:20 |
| gorp | it's not inheritedly complicated or anything like that - to have the function you're describing | 06:20 |
| Firefishe | gorp: Where do I configure kde to do that? | 06:20 |
| gorp | i don't know, i don't even use X ! | 06:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | hoober, are you sure you downloaded the linux version of VMPlayer? .bundle seems to be a Mac thing? VirtualBox is a really good alternative to VMWare. With both an open source and closed source (with USB support) versions available as native Ubuntu installs/repositories. | 06:20 |
| Firefishe | gorp: k | 06:20 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, du -sk * | 06:20 |
| tensorpudding | df should be correct. | 06:21 |
| tensorpudding | Are you actually using 100+ GB? | 06:21 |
| gorp | tensorpudding: do you understand? | 06:22 |
| hoober | VirtualBox can't do 3d software. I need hardware accelerated graphics in order to use the intelligence gathering data for our top-level research | 06:22 |
| researcher1 | can we send fax from ubuntu system | 06:22 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, then the problem is, I can't FIND the stuff! I store all my videos and music on an external drive, so i can't imagine how I have 103GB of stuff. | 06:22 |
| Plecebo | rafter, still not sure why I can't mkdir with sudo | 06:22 |
| rafter | Plecebo try sudo -i | 06:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | hoober, actually VBox can do 3d (not well, but vbox is generally faster then VMware) good luck then. | 06:23 |
| tensorpudding | tesseracter_: try using du -s * in the directory, and seeing where the bulk of the files are | 06:23 |
| hoober | We do major simulations in 3d | 06:23 |
| hoober | out of this world | 06:23 |
| hoober | but thankyou | 06:23 |
| Plecebo | rafter, denied | 06:23 |
| researcher1 | is there a facility to send fax fro ububuntu | 06:23 |
| LinuxFetus_ | Hey what's the channel for ubuntu 10.10? I was here a second ago on a different computer. | 06:23 |
| dli | hoober, or, another virtual machine: openvz | 06:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | LinuxFetus, #ubuntu+1 | 06:23 |
| tensorpudding | tesseracter_: err that should be du -h | 06:23 |
| pvl1 | is it possible to install 64bit over a 32 bit? | 06:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | pvl1, clean install (deleting 32bit install) yes | 06:24 |
| maco | Firefishe: if i go to K -> leave -> switch user it offers to open a new session. if from that new session i do the same it lists both the old session and an option to create yet another new one... i can switch back and forth in this way | 06:24 |
| rafter | Plecebo are u useing the terminal ir the gui | 06:24 |
| tensorpudding | gorp: I'm afraid not. It would seem that if that is all there is that the USB port doesn't work, or somehow Ubuntu can't communicate with it properly. | 06:24 |
| pvl1 | ZykoticK9, good thing i partitioned my /home | 06:24 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, I have 2 virtualbox instances, but they are scalable, both max at 20gb, but right now they are 3gb and 7gb. here is the output: http://dpaste.com/240314/ | 06:25 |
| Firefishe | maco: let me try that | 06:25 |
| Firefishe | maco: thanks | 06:25 |
| Plecebo | rafter, Im in the terminal | 06:25 |
| tensorpudding | gorp: Generally it needs to settle before the USB device gets assigned a block file, usually a couple seconds or so | 06:25 |
| gorp | i'm waiting at least 30 | 06:25 |
| rww | Emry: you are, but you identified after attempting to /join #ubuntu instead of before, so you got redirected as an unidentified user. | 06:26 |
| rafter | Plecebo sudo -i enter | 06:26 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, looks pretty suspicious, right? | 06:26 |
| Firefishe | maco: I can't get to the new login screen. It just locks the desktop | 06:26 |
| Emry | I think there may be a bug. I logged into the network and was shunted immediately to the #ubuntu-unregistered without trying to join any channel, where a bot asked me a security question and told me how to register. | 06:26 |
| maco | Firefishe: mm odd. thatd be a bug. can you ctrl+alt+f8 or f9? | 06:26 |
| Plecebo | rafter, gives me a root prompt | 06:26 |
| ZykoticK9 | Emry, not a bug - i haven't seen that (but i registered) - other's have mentioned your experience | 06:27 |
| tensorpudding | tesseracter_: is the RAID 0 device have just / on it? | 06:27 |
| rafter | Plecebo ok try to make the dir u want | 06:27 |
| ZykoticK9 | Emry, it's to cut down on bots | 06:27 |
| Firefishe | maco: Yes. And I can ctrl-alt-f1,2,3,4,5,6 to the virtual terminals for that matter. | 06:27 |
| Emry | ZykoticK9, My client may be logging in here automatically, I will check the settings. :) | 06:27 |
| Emry | ZykoticK9, if that is the case, and the services are slow to respond, that could cause it. ^_^ | 06:27 |
| maco | Firefishe: but only 1-6 are VTs. 7+ should let you switch between X sessions | 06:28 |
| Plecebo | rafter, strangely there is a usb in /root/usb | 06:28 |
| Firefishe | maco: f7 seems to be output, f8 is the x session ,and 9 is just a blank windows with an underline prompt | 06:28 |
| Plecebo | created a short time ago | 06:28 |
| gorp | maco: do you know? | 06:28 |
| maco | Firefishe: 8's the session? odd. usually first is on 7. i find they tend to skip one though, so is 10 the new session? | 06:28 |
| Plecebo | mkdir /media/usb | 06:28 |
| Plecebo | mkdir: cannot create directory `/media/usb': Permission denied | 06:28 |
| Firefishe | maco: hmm...let me check that | 06:29 |
| Wikkedfin | !help | 06:29 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 06:29 |
| maco | Firefishe: once you have two sessions going that should let you switch between them, whether youre on gnome or kde | 06:29 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, there are 2 raids, a 5gb mirrored raid for /boot, and the 112gb combined raid0 for / | 06:29 |
| tensorpudding | and I suppose that the massive part in /media includes the external drive? | 06:30 |
| tesseracter_ | for those wishing to join in on the raid-problem party, http://dpaste.com/240315/ | 06:30 |
| maco | Firefishe: if kde's session switching isnt working for you, id consider that a bug though. it /should/ work. ive never tried switching back and forth (just switch user, do stuff, log out, back to first user) before though so maybe it didnt work in 4.4? you can install kde 4.5 from the kubuntu team ppas if you like. 4.5 works for me | 06:30 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, yep, thats the 2tb external drive. | 06:30 |
| rafter | Plecebo what is the drive that / on a floppy cdrom....... | 06:30 |
| tensorpudding | Odd. | 06:30 |
| Firefishe | maco: gnome isn't an issue. kde is where it's not doing it. I do the K -> Leave -> Switch User but it doesn't work. | 06:30 |
| Plecebo | rafter, ssd drive | 06:30 |
| Firefishe | Well, I need to skedaddle...my other user (wifey) is back from errands...puter's hers now ;) hee | 06:31 |
| maco | Firefishe: does it even bring up the "new session?" window? | 06:31 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, and all the other disk-usage programs use du, so they come out the same. | 06:31 |
| dougb | is there a version of ubuntu with all of the hardware support, but a vanilla look similar to debian? | 06:31 |
| rafter | Plecebo i don't know what that is | 06:31 |
| Firefishe | maco: thanks for the help, I'll look into everything you've suggested. | 06:31 |
| maco | !info stracciatella | 06:31 |
| ubottu | Package stracciatella does not exist in lucid | 06:31 |
| Firefishe | maco: including 4.5.x ;) (but I hear it's still a bit buggy) | 06:31 |
| tensorpudding | tesseracter_: try du -h /media/* maybe | 06:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | maco, not sure if this helps at all - but recent Ubuntu will not allow the same user to be logged in twice (at least not in Gnome), using a second user on gdmflexiserver works just fine though... Firefishe | 06:31 |
| rww | !info gnome-stracciatella-session | 06:32 |
| ubottu | gnome-stracciatella-session (source: stracciatella-session): GNOME session without Ubuntu specific components. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.0.3 (lucid), package size 2 kB, installed size 56 kB | 06:32 |
| BadAssPens | I am trying to mount a file and i get an error message saying its not in fstab, how do i add it to that in order to mount it? | 06:32 |
| Firefishe | ZykoticK9: What is gdmflexiserver? | 06:32 |
| rdw200169 | dougb: ubuntu does still include all those gnome default themes if thats what you want | 06:32 |
| rww | though if I remember correctly, that still uses Ubuntu theming. I'd go with the "gnome" or "gnome-desktop-environment" packages instead. | 06:32 |
| Plecebo | rafter, it is a solid state device, similar to a hard drive but no moving parts | 06:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | Firefishe, in gnome used for multiple sessions F7 & F8 sorta thing | 06:32 |
| iter | tesseracter_: what kind of raid? md raid? | 06:32 |
| sebsebseb | dougb: closest your going to get when it comes to still supported, is 8.04, however you can remove the downstream Gnome changes, to look more like what your after | 06:32 |
| Plecebo | rafter, an 80GB drive connected via sata | 06:32 |
| tesseracter_ | iter, yes, software raid. | 06:33 |
| dougb | ok | 06:33 |
| sebsebseb | dougb: with later versions | 06:33 |
| Firefishe | ZykoticK9: I'll google around and look into the setup...might be what I'm looking for. | 06:33 |
| Firefishe | thanks :) | 06:33 |
| rafter | Plecebo ok | 06:33 |
| Firefishe | bye for now, all...tbaks again :) | 06:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | Firefishe, are you on KDE? | 06:33 |
| rdw200169 | sebsebseb: he left, quick! like a fox! | 06:33 |
| maco | Firefishe: well im on maverick, so my idea of buggy is uh... i expect them. but the only bug i know of in 4.5 thats annoying some folks is that semantic desktop search is broken. if you dont use it, doesnt matter | 06:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | gone | 06:33 |
| maco | hey wait... i wonder... | 06:33 |
| sebsebseb | rdw200169: yeah I saw | 06:33 |
| maco | if firefishe was using kde inside gdm | 06:33 |
| iter | tesseracter_: have you fsck the filesystem ? | 06:33 |
| sebsebseb | rdw200169: right bang before the bit I didn't type in that I was meant to, ah well | 06:33 |
| maco | because gdm cant do switch user with kde and kdm theoretically cant do it with gnome, iirc. gdm uses unix sockets, and kdm uses dbus. | 06:34 |
| bbigras | Is this call-trace from my kern.log from the iwlagn driver? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/gejMQbkY | 06:35 |
| BadAssPens | is there a way to temporarily mount a file without adding it to fstab? | 06:35 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, now that IS interesting! http://dpaste.com/240317/ | 06:35 |
| maco | BadAssPens: yep | 06:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | BadAssPens, yes - just use the mount command | 06:35 |
| rdw200169 | BadAssPens: sure, you just run the mount command | 06:35 |
| tesseracter_ | iter ^ | 06:35 |
| maco | BadAssPens: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt <-- replace /dev/sda1 with the block device you mean | 06:35 |
| maco | BadAssPens: or if you want to mount an iso, out the iso file there | 06:35 |
| rdw200169 | BadAssPens: i believe you got you answer in triplicate ;) | 06:35 |
| maco | BadAssPens: if an iso may need to put -t iso9660 ... but autodetect should work | 06:36 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, iter: 74GB is just about the hidden number.... | 06:36 |
| iter | tesseracter_: is it mounted? 'mount' to show | 06:36 |
| BadAssPens | well my understanding is the file is a cd image, but it is a .bundle, not listed as an iso | 06:37 |
| tesseracter_ | iter, no, not mounted. the __ versions are mounted. | 06:37 |
| ZykoticK9 | BadAssPens, are you sure this is for linux? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundle_(NEXTSTEP) | 06:38 |
| iter | tesseracter_: file /media/Ouroboros | 06:39 |
| BadAssPens | pretty sure, i tried to mount the file and got this error, i am running 10.4 ubuntu . /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER BadAssPens rmlnrjwmdaqh | 06:39 |
| tesseracter_ | iter, directory. | 06:39 |
| BadAssPens | oops | 06:39 |
| BadAssPens | pasted the wrong thing | 06:39 |
| tensorpudding | tesseracter_: if the thing isn't mounted, then files that are placed there end up in the root filesystem | 06:39 |
| maco | BadAssPens: password changing time | 06:39 |
| tensorpudding | tesseracter_: so that would explain it | 06:39 |
| BadAssPens | can't find VMware-Player-3.1.1-282343.x86_64.bundle in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 06:39 |
| BadAssPens | thats the error i get | 06:40 |
| rdw200169 | BadAssPens:i knew i saw that somewhere, totally mac-proprietary ... ;) | 06:40 |
| iter | tesseracter_: can you cd to it? | 06:40 |
| tensorpudding | tesseracter_: you should should mv everything under Ouroborus to Ouroborus__ | 06:40 |
| maco | BadAssPens: did you list where you want it mounted? or just the filename? | 06:40 |
| tensorpudding | tesseracter_: and also rename those directories to something less confusing | 06:40 |
| maco | BadAssPens: if you dont list where it should be mounted, it tries to check in fstab | 06:40 |
| BadAssPens | oh, i did not do that | 06:40 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, iter: excellent. now to figure out how to get those files. I get permission denied, even with sudo. | 06:40 |
| BadAssPens | so i just give it a directory name and it will mount it there? | 06:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | maco, can a .bundle be mounted (in linux)? | 06:41 |
| maco | BadAssPens: yep | 06:41 |
| maco | ZykoticK9: no idea | 06:41 |
| BadAssPens | great, ty | 06:41 |
| maco | ZykoticK9: i just know whats wrong with syntax ;-) | 06:41 |
| iter | tesseracter_: I suggest mounting Ouroboros__ as something else | 06:41 |
| tensorpudding | tesseracter_: check the permissions of that directory | 06:41 |
| OneMillionDollar | i installed firestarter it shows alot of attacker | 06:41 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, i didn't name it, ubuntu named it that for some reason, must be when I take the drive out(correctly, of course) but maybe the system shut down at some point? | 06:41 |
| maco | ZykoticK9: really, i suspect it could be unzipped | 06:41 |
| OneMillionDollar | and blocked them all | 06:41 |
| mneptok | BadAssPens: that is not an .iso, and it's not even any kind of disk image. | 06:41 |
| mneptok | BadAssPens: what are you trying to accomplish? | 06:42 |
| OneMillionDollar | does this mean before i install firestarter all these attcker are allow ? | 06:42 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, drwx------ 3 root root Ouroboros | 06:42 |
| maco | OneMillionDollar: you mean traffic | 06:42 |
| rdw200169 | OneMillionDollar: i also really like firestarter. no, by default, ubuntu has a "INPUT DENY" policy in iptables | 06:42 |
| BadAssPens | i am trying to install vmplayer | 06:42 |
| maco | rdw200169: no it doesnt | 06:42 |
| BadAssPens | and haveing a hell of a time following the instructions | 06:42 |
| mneptok | BadAssPens: and you do not want to use a repository? | 06:42 |
| maco | OneMillionDollar: ubuntu has no services listening by default, which is /just as good/ as input deny | 06:42 |
| rdw200169 | maco you may be right | 06:42 |
| ilovefairuz | maco is right | 06:43 |
| iter | tesseracter_: can you cd to it? | 06:43 |
| maco | rdw200169, OneMillionDollar: also, firestarter hasnt been maintained in years. try gufw | 06:43 |
| rdw200169 | i was thinking of older versions of ubuntu | 06:43 |
| iter | tesseracter_: cd /media/Ouroboros && ls | 06:43 |
| BadAssPens | yes i am in the directory and can see the file | 06:43 |
| maco | rdw200169: pre-2006? | 06:43 |
| BadAssPens | oh | 06:43 |
| rdw200169 | maco: yeah... i haven't used a default firewall in many years ;) | 06:43 |
| maco | rdw200169: cuz ive been using since 2006 and as long as ive been using it...firewall has never been configured by default | 06:43 |
| mneptok | BadAssPens: chmod +x VMware-Player-3.1.1-282343.x86_64.bundle && sudo ./VMware-Player-3.1.1-282343.x86_64.bundle | 06:44 |
| OneMillionDollar | maco if i stop firestarter now will it leave all port open ? | 06:44 |
| tesseracter_ | iter, ah ha! I got is via sudo su. its a bunch of automated backups. | 06:44 |
| rdw200169 | maco: no no, i'm referring to the default *policy* | 06:44 |
| OneMillionDollar | or not blocking attacker ? | 06:44 |
| maco | rdw200169: sudo iptables -L shows that it is ACCEPT | 06:44 |
| maco | rdw200169: it always has been | 06:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | mneptok, thanks - know i know what to do with a .bundle | 06:44 |
| ilovefairuz | OneMillionDollar: by default, no programs are running that the attackers would be able to connect to, even if allowed | 06:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | mneptok, s/know i know/now i know | 06:45 |
| BadAssPens | thank you mneptok, hours of reading and trying stuff to come down to one line =) thank you thank you | 06:45 |
| === veovis_muaddib is now known as Veovis_AWAY | ||
| maco | OneMillionDollar: if nothing is listening on any ports, there's nothing attackers can do, except maybe attack your interface at the firmware/driver level, which would require them to know your hardware and do a targetted attack, and a firewall wont stop that | 06:45 |
| mneptok | ZykoticK9: i grokked it :) | 06:45 |
| mneptok | BadAssPens: *bow* | 06:46 |
| rdw200169 | maco: you can stop now, i already bowed down to your obvious brilliance. take my offer of deference, please | 06:46 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, iter: thank you very much for the help! I'm moving the huge amount of backups to the external drive, and getting the naming schema settled down. | 06:46 |
| magedragon25 | maybe someone here can help or point me in the right direction. I tried to upgrade to 10.10 and got an error, couldn't mark ubuntu-desktop....went into the logs, and said something about held broken packages | 06:46 |

| magedragon25 | yes...running lucid now | 06:47 |
| OneMillionDollar | what i mean is that does firestarter change anything in iptable ? if i stop the firewall service what would happen ? | 06:47 |
| gorp | magedragon25: i wish there was a way to just ignore ubottu since he's always being abused | 06:47 |
| ilovefairuz | gorp: just came in | 06:47 |

| gorp | ilovefairuz: how to mount blackberry if no /dev/ interface exists? | 06:47 |
| maco | OneMillionDollar: you can check with "sudo iptables -L" to see what the settings currently are | 06:47 |
| gorp | ilovefairuz: do i need some driver or something? | 06:47 |
| gorp | it should be acting as a block device (usb stick) | 06:47 |
| ilovefairuz | OneMillionDollar: FireStarter and most other firewall frontends just generate an iptables script that gets loaded on boot | 06:48 |
| ilovefairuz | gorp: is it listed in lsusb? | 06:48 |
| gorp | yes | 06:48 |
| tesseracter_ | tensorpudding, iter: kablam! down to 24gb used, 78gb free space! ahh, so much better. | 06:48 |
| gorp | it is also listed in dmesg | 06:48 |
| gorp | [172069.178442] usb 1-7: USB disconnect, address 15 [172074.472053] usb 1-7: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 16 [172074.605612] usb 1-7: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice | 06:49 |
| OneMillionDollar | ok what's the best firewall for ubuntu right now ? how to uninstall firestarter ? | 06:49 |
| ilovefairuz | gorp: what's the ID in lsusb? | 06:49 |
| gorp | bus 001 device 15 | 06:49 |
| gorp | or device 16 rather | 06:50 |
| OneMillionDollar | btw how many attack you guys receive ? is it alot ? | 06:50 |
| ilovefairuz | OneMillionDollar: sudo apt-get purge firestarter; sudo apt-get install gufw | 06:50 |
| ilovefairuz | gorp: pastebin | 06:50 |
| gorp | ilovefairuz: what? | 06:50 |
| gorp | Bus 001 Device 016: ID 0fca:8001 Research In Motion, Ltd. | 06:50 |
| OneMillionDollar | mine it's like every second 1 or 2 | 06:50 |
| maco | OneMillionDollar: to be honest, i dont bother with reading kern.log's output to see what stupid script kiddies and windows worms are port-scanning, because i know that with no services, there are pretty much no attacks thatll stick... and a port scan ain't an attack | 06:51 |
| maco | OneMillionDollar: though most of the traffic you're seeing probably *is* just port scans | 06:51 |
| ilovefairuz | gorp: are you running lucid? | 06:51 |
| rdw200169 | OneMillionDollar: firestarter is a specially designed iptables script that logs pretty much everything that is dropped | 06:51 |
| gorp | ilovefairuz: why are you asking me that? | 06:51 |
| maco | OneMillionDollar: if you want to see /actual/ attacks not just "oh look there's traffic on a network, who's surprised?" try an intrusion detection system, like snort | 06:51 |
| gorp | ilovefairuz: i'd like to know the purpsoe of every question in this debugging process, so i can understand it better | 06:52 |
| ilovefairuz | gorp: for google-fu | 06:52 |
| gorp | what? | 06:52 |
| gorp | the problem has to do with blackberries an dlinux | 06:53 |
| magedragon25 | I know that maverick is still in beta and unstable, but the problem I have with upgrading deals with my current install...... | 06:53 |
| ilovefairuz | gorp: for optimizing google searches | 06:53 |
| gorp | nah i don't believe it | 06:54 |
| BadAssPens | how do i change my nickserv password, the instructions i keep finding tell me to use /nickserv set passwd, but it doesnt recognise it | 06:54 |
| Gnea | BadAssPens: better to ask in #freenode | 06:54 |
| rww | BadAssPens: see /msg nickserv help set password | 06:55 |
| BadAssPens | thank you | 06:55 |
| ilovefairuz | gorp: you don't believe what exactly? | 06:56 |
| gorp | that you know what you're doing | 06:56 |
| p1oooop | 0.o | 06:56 |
| ilovefairuz | gorp: ah, suit yourself then | 06:56 |
| OneMillionDollar | why after i type sudo apt-get install it show gufwE: Couldn't find package gufw | 06:56 |
| p1oooop | you work for google or something? | 06:57 |
| p1oooop | haha | 06:57 |

| Redeemed | anybody in here use rpgmaker successfully on wine? | 06:57 |
| ilovefairuz | !appdb | Redeemed | 06:57 |
| ubottu | Redeemed: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 06:57 |
| gorp | Redeemed: should be documented on the wine website | 06:57 |
| p1oooop | OneMillionDollar: because they can't find it... | 06:57 |
| Redeemed | Not everybody documents thier stuff. | 06:57 |
| OneMillionDollar | why after i type sudo apt-get install gufw it show E: Couldn't find package gufw | 06:58 |
| Redeemed | it is on there, but there is one function i can't get working | 06:58 |
| p1oooop | Redeemed: I prefer video instead... | 06:58 |
| OneMillionDollar | how to solve it ? | 06:58 |
| p1oooop | OneMillionDollar: find the package | 06:58 |
| blag | my computer won't normally boot the install CD. im not entirely sure what the problem is, but my computer is a very old (~10 years) 1.2 GHz Athlon. Will any of the acpi=off, noapic, nolapic, edd=on, nodmraid, or nomodeset flags on the live CD help it boot? | 06:58 |
| ilovefairuz | !info gufw | OneMillionDollar | 06:58 |

| rafter | Plecebo is ther anything in your /mnt | 06:59 |
| OneMillionDollar | no | 07:00 |
| Plecebo | rafter, nothing in /mnt | 07:00 |
| ilovefairuz | OneMillionDollar: the package is in lucid only | 07:00 |
| ilovefairuz | blag: has it ever booted a CD/is that supported by the BIOS? | 07:00 |
| OneMillionDollar | then is it still ok to use firestarter as firewall ? | 07:01 |
| ilovefairuz | OneMillionDollar: it has not been maintained for years, so you decide for yourself | 07:01 |
| greenmang0 | hello friends i am running 10.04.1 , just installed slapd ... may i know how to setup the admin password for ldap? cause "dpkg-reconfigure slapd" doesn't prompt for setting password | 07:02 |
| rdw200169 | OneMillionDollar: it should be fine. iptables hasn't changed in years ;) | 07:02 |
| ilovefairuz | OneMillionDollar: you could use the command line interface to ufw if the GUI is not available, type: man ufw | 07:02 |

| doug__ | which one should i get? | 07:03 |
| rafter | Plecebo try mount -t fat32 /dev/sdb1 /mnt | 07:03 |
| blag | ilovefairuz: yes, booting the from CD is supported. it will start to boot from the CD, but then it will error out with "(initramfs) mount: mounting /dev/loop0 on //filesystem.squahfs failed: Input/output error" | 07:04 |
| cybic | hello everybody | 07:04 |
| ilovefairuz | blag: that's a hardware error which could mean a number of things: scratched cd, faulty driver or cable or a bad burn | 07:05 |
| cybic | did anyone ever use fprint? i have some trouble unlocking the screensaver in gnome (everything else works just fine) | 07:05 |
| Plecebo | rafter, mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt worked | 07:05 |
| ilovefairuz | blag: did you verify the ISO before burning? | 07:06 |
| blag | ilovefairuz: okay, so check the CD for defects, and hope the hardware isn't failing me? | 07:06 |
| blag | ilovefairuz: no, how do i do that? | 07:06 |
| === Veovis_AWAY is now known as veovis_muaddib | ||
| ilovefairuz | !verify | blag | 07:06 |
| ubottu | blag: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 07:06 |
| rafter | Plecebo finely | 07:06 |
| ilovefairuz | blag: yes, try | 07:06 |
| Plecebo | rafter, mounted, and finally got the ability to click the "make startup disk" in the usb startup disk maker... but it failed | 07:08 |
| Plecebo | rafter, any ideas? | 07:08 |
| varun | hello | 07:08 |
| varun | everyone | 07:08 |
| varun | anyone who could help a bit with a silly problem? | 07:08 |
| ilovefairuz | !details | varun | 07:09 |
| ubottu | varun: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 07:09 |
| rafter | Plecebo 1 thing i noticed in your /etc/fstab your / is ro not rw change that so u can write to / | 07:11 |
| cybic | did anyone ever use fprint? i have some trouble unlocking the screensaver in gnome (everything else works just fine) | 07:12 |
| rafter | Plecebo are u trying to make an install disk or a live session usb | 07:12 |
| Plecebo | rafter, yes a live usb stick to install ubuntu on another system | 07:12 |
| varun | sure I am doing it. I am running ubuntu intrepid ibex with google-chromium version 6 beta which I installed thru apt-get and then I installed google voice plugin but he problem is when I open google chrome using bash then the plugin works but when I set up a custom application launcher with the same path as the one which bash shows then it tells me to install the plugin | 07:12 |
| greenmang0 | can anybody tell me how to setup ldap admin password? | 07:13 |
| rafter | Plecebo ok get uni-usb-installer | 07:14 |
| dkannan | what is lib32 and lib64 - i am using ubuntu 10.04 | 07:14 |
| gschwepp | !ldap | greenmang0 | 07:14 |
| ubottu | greenmang0: LDAP is the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. For more information, installation instructions and getting clients to authenticate via LDAP see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer | 07:14 |
| rdw200169 | gschwepp: dang, you beat me to it :( | 07:15 |
| dkannan | do i need /var/lib64 when i already have a /var/lib | 07:15 |
| ilovefairuz | varun: try dragging the launcher from the applications menu to the panel | 07:15 |
| ilovefairuz | dkannan: these are system libraries to run applications compiled for the 32- and 64-bit architectures | 07:16 |
| dkannan | ilovefairuz: so if i have a 64 bit machine - i can make a /var/lib32 if i have compiled it to 32 bit? | 07:17 |
| varun | @ ilovefairuz I tried that but there is another complication which is that there is a folder named chrome in /opt/google/ and there is a chrome launcher there but the one the bash uses is in /usr/bin/ | 07:18 |
| ilovefairuz | dkannan: lib32 is to run 32bit applications on your 64bit OS | 07:18 |
| greenmang0 | gschwepp: ok... but /etc/ldap/slapd.conf doesn't exist | 07:18 |
| ilovefairuz | varun: type: 'which google-chrome' | 07:19 |
| Plecebo | rafter, I think i'm on my way now... something is broken with this system, I'll be looking to fix it | 07:19 |
| p1oooop | this is strange... I can ping from my internal network to my external network, but I cannot connect to a DNS server... | 07:19 |
| ilovefairuz | p1oooop: dig google.com @8.8.8.8 | 07:19 |
| Plecebo | rafter, thank you so much for your help :) | 07:19 |
| p1oooop | ping? | 07:19 |
| ilovefairuz | nope, dig | 07:20 |
| p1oooop | dig? | 07:20 |
| p1oooop | some random command? | 07:20 |
| varun | @ilovefairuz I assume you mean I should type it in bash which is what i did and it says /usr/bin/google-chrome | 07:20 |
| ilovefairuz | !man | p1oooop | 07:20 |
| ubottu | p1oooop: The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | Manpages online: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/ | 07:20 |
| p1oooop | not geting anything... | 07:20 |
| p1oooop | :P | 07:20 |

| ilovefairuz | p1oooop: no error messages? | 07:21 |
| p1oooop | connection timed out ilovefairuz | 07:21 |
| ilovefairuz | p1oooop: ok: mtr 8.8.8.8 | 07:21 |
| Plecebo | rafter, im currently offloading my /home to my server and i'll be reinstalling fresh... just not comfortable with being locked out like that, so hopefully I'll not need it :) | 07:21 |
| ilovefairuz | p1oooop: 'sudo' before that | 07:22 |
| rafter | Plecebo ok bye | 07:22 |
| p1oooop | ilovefairuz: I did... | 07:22 |
| ilovefairuz | p1oooop: pastebin | 07:22 |
| p1oooop | ilovefairuz: I can't ping my DNS servers... | 07:22 |
| p1oooop | wtf. | 07:22 |

| p1oooop | :O | 07:24 |
| ilovefairuz | p1oooop: is the default gateway setup correctly? check the output of 'route' | 07:24 |
| p1oooop | yes. | 07:24 |
| p1oooop | my network consists of 2 gateways | 07:25 |
| rdw200169 | p1oooop: can you ping a DNS server, like 8.8.8.8 ? | 07:25 |
| ilovefairuz | p1oooop: pastebin the output of the mtr command | 07:25 |
| p1oooop | 1 leading to the internal network, and another leading to the internal internal network | 07:25 |
| p1oooop | and from my internal internal network, I can ping my internal network, but nothing beyond that... | 07:27 |
| p1oooop | DNS servers included... | 07:27 |
| p1oooop | perhaps it's something wrong with my configuration? | 07:27 |
| varun | @ilovefairuz advise for me? | 07:27 |
| classical_ | hey ppl i cant install bind from source ./configure works just fine but make says No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. | 07:27 |
| rdw200169 | p1oooop: it is possible. is ubuntu acting as the 'router' in your configuration? or is there an actual router? | 07:28 |
| classical_ | there is a make file in my working directory actually :-))) | 07:28 |
| iter | p1oooop: your internal internal router needs a route to 0.0.0.0 | 07:28 |
| iter | p1oooop: that is to say a default gw | 07:28 |
| ilovefairuz | varun: 'which google-chrome' will show you the full path that you should use in the launcher | 07:28 |

| Ardin | hey, anyone know if theres a way to dock pidgin to the side of the screen like you can in windows? | 07:32 |
| rdw200169 | p1oooop: well, you could make your life easy and NAT the internal-internal network into the internal network, then, ensuring you have a default route than points to the interface that runs into your internal network, everything should work | 07:33 |
| classical_ | Someone help me please :-))) | 07:33 |
| p1oooop | http://pastebin.com/EKTs4hPx | 07:33 |
| rdw200169 | p1oooop: this implies, of course, that no one on the internal network will be able to see anyone on the internal-internal network direclty | 07:33 |

| avi_ | Hello, I want to install compiz-plugins-unsupported. They aren't in the repos. However, a while ago someone on here posted a link to a script he wrote that automatically downloads and installs them. Are you there, or does anyone know what I'm talking about? Thanks! | 07:34 |
| p1oooop | sorry, I was being a bit ambiguous.. :P | 07:34 |
| ilovefairuz | classical_: are you typing './configure' or 'make' ? | 07:34 |
| rdw200169 | p1oooop: yeah, we diagnosed that that was going to be an issue if you can't ping outside the internal-internal network | 07:34 |
| classical_ | ilovefairuz, ./configure then make | 07:34 |
| p1oooop | 192.168.1.1 is the gateway for my internal network, 192.168.0.1 is my router/gateway for internal internal | 07:34 |
| p1oooop | rdw200169: I can, but I cannot ping outside of the internal network... | 07:35 |
| ilovefairuz | p1oooop: i asked for the pastebin of 'route' not 'dig' and there should be a space before the @ | 07:35 |
| p1oooop | perhaps my other gateway isn't being very friendly... | 07:35 |
| classical_ | make says No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. but there is a make file and i'm in a working dir | 07:35 |
| iter | p1oooop: on the internal internal do 'sudo route add default 192.168.1.1' | 07:35 |
| p1oooop | iter: okay. | 07:35 |
| trollboy | for some reason, I'm getting an invalid cert for dummy-enterprises.org when checking pop.gmail.com | 07:35 |

| dpac_ | rdw200169: I've got an adsl connection. I connect my router in PPPoE mode because there are other computers which need the connection too. My ISP provides a customer care service on http://192.168.117.7:8080/ but I am not able to access that when router is in PPPoE mode. When I connect in bridge mode and make a connection using pppoeconf, I can surf the customer care website. Any idea whats going wrong? | 07:47 |

| rdw200169 | dpac_: simple answer: according to the rules of the internet, a 192.168.X.X subnet is Class C. this means that when you create a private there can not be a subnet larger than 255.255.255.0. Thus, i *know* with an ip of 192.168.1.1 you will not be able to access the 192.168.117.?/? network without some special routing tricks implemented at the ISP. 192.168... is a private network and unroutable on the internet proper. | 07:51 |
| p1oooop | I didn't change my nfs share location after I did some stuff... | 07:51 |
| p1oooop | :P | 07:51 |
| dpac_ | rdw200169: So is there a solution for this problem? Can a change in IP of my router fix it? | 07:52 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network) should make more sense than me in this regard | 07:53 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: well, if you can get yourself on the 192.168.117.? network then yes | 07:53 |
| p1oooop | it works! | 07:53 |
| p1oooop | :D | 07:53 |
| p1oooop | and now, to not talk to a brainless node directly... | 07:53 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: but, in this situation, it would be better if you contact your ISP and explain to them your situation. perhaps there is a workaround for accessing that Customer Service system | 07:54 |
| dpac_ | rdw200169: Thanks, I'll try to contact the ISP. | 07:54 |
| tracy69 | morning | 07:55 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: it seems to me rather silly that the ISP would offer access to a network that didn't also have some path to the Customer Service IP. then again, I see that you're getting a private IP from your ISP, so your problems are several fold... why aren't you receiving a routable IP from your ISP? | 07:55 |
| dpac_ | rdw200169: I am not getting a Private IP from ISP. 192.168.1.1 is the IP of my private network. I mean, I use that IP to change router settings. The actual IP my router gets from my ISP is 113.199.x.x | 07:57 |
| classical_ | ilovefairuz, i have installed thanks but now i want to uninstall it :-D how to do this ? | 07:58 |
| tracy69 | dpac_, 192.168.1.1 this is router adress everyone has the same thats how u access your router settings it isnt your IT adress | 07:59 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: right right i missed that. | 07:59 |
| greenmang0 | can anybody tell me how to setup ldap admin password? | 07:59 |
| greenmang0 | rdw200169: ^^ | 07:59 |
| dpac_ | tracy69: Yep, I know. :) | 07:59 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: regardless, what i was saying still applies. you need to find a route from 192.168.1.0/24 to 192.168.117.0/24 or whatever | 08:00 |
| ilovefairuz | classical_: make uninstall | 08:00 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: when your modem/router is operating in bridge mode, of course you can access the remote admin address(es) | 08:00 |
| felichas | Hi, when using IMAP, hiding some folders using Folder Subscriptions works fine, but I lose Folder Subscriptions settings after restarting evolution (v2.28.1) | 08:00 |
| felichas | (talking about evolution, sorry) Is there a way to fix the folder subscription settings? | 08:01 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: really, you're not running into a 'problem'... this is more a consequence of the discord of function between a 'bridge' and 'router | 08:01 |
| classical_ | ilovefairuz, make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'. Stop. | 08:01 |
| p1oooop | hmm... | 08:01 |
| dpac_ | rdw200169: If I am able to access it while in Bridge mode, my router should be able to access the page as well while in PPPoE mode, isn't it? There's a ping utility on router admin page which times out when I ping to 192.168.117.1 | 08:02 |

| p1oooop | haha! | 08:05 |
| p1oooop | I think I disabled USB for some reason... | 08:06 |
| p1oooop | :P | 08:06 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: no, not really. in bridge mode, your device thinks its a switch. this means that 'router' rules don't apply. once you throw in PPPoE it becomes a router | 08:06 |
| p1oooop | 0.o | 08:06 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: the definitions of everything is rather vague. PPPoE involves more, like IP address assignment to the DSL modem etc... ... ... | 08:07 |
| p1oooop | alright, back to reoptimization from the start :P... | 08:07 |
| p1oooop | or maybe I'll do that later... | 08:07 |
| p1oooop | yeah, I'm going to go do my homework... haha! | 08:07 |
| p1oooop | bye hey, I got my whole server figured out today, that's worth something :D | 08:08 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: once you do PPPoE instead of bridge mode, your DSL modem becomes a router; thus, it can't route private networks (i.e. 192.168.117.?) on the external side. | 08:08 |
| dpac_ | rdw200169: I am understanding this. Thanks. Its clearer to me now. | 08:08 |
| SilentDis | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/dfDr2nSp - Going to transfer the OS to a new SSD drive. How do I setup the new drive partition as bootable? | 08:09 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: if you don't like your DSL modem, just leave the sucker in bridge mode and put on a switch and get routable IP's to all the computers you want that way; or, put on a better router at the bridged DSL modem, thereby bypassing having your DSL modem act as a router. ... | 08:10 |
| rdw200169 | dpac_: then, at least, you can have DMZ's or forwarded ports for user security i.e. firewalling | 08:11 |

| billy | bazhang: i just said the computer wont boot from usb devices - not supported! | 09:07 |
| Out`Of`Control | I am using gnome Ubuntu 64 bit window borders gone. | 09:08 |
| tracy69 | KeNako, there on the internet is so much info about ubuntu when i first started i just used google ubuntu forum | 09:08 |
| billy | bazhang: not interested | 09:08 |

| datune | Does anybody know why (for example) top reports global cpu usage as follows: CPU 1: 1%, CPU 2: 3%, BUT shows 100% cpu usage for rm ? | 09:12 |
| iceroot | datune: that is %WA (io wait time) | 09:13 |
| iceroot | datune: look in top for %sys %user and %wa | 09:14 |
| iceroot | datune: normally %wa is the problem why a system is slow, because the cpu is waiting for the io devices like the hdd | 09:14 |
| datune | iceroot: Thanks, I'll look into it. I am having some weird troubles with my Virtual Ubuntu Server on a ESX Server, it performs extremely poor, and for days I can't seem to find the cause... | 09:15 |

| Mark__ | Hi, I need help with a 10.04 prob after updates. Can't use keyboard or touchpad in xsession login (Grub is OK). Is this the right place to ask? | 09:22 |
| tracy69 | <Mark__> do you see cursor? | 09:22 |
| Mark__ | I see the graphical user logins, I just can't select anything as the touchpad and keyboard seem to be frozen | 09:23 |
| DIFTOW | Hey, I have a quick question. I have 8 GB of system ram. How much HDD partition space for Swap drive? | 09:23 |
| tracy69 | sometimes somethign freeze cuz u have to reinstall graphic card dirver if u upgraded kernel | 09:23 |
| Slart | DIFTOW: is this a laptop? will you be using hibernation? | 09:24 |
| tracy69 | Mark__, can u boot in safe graphic mode? | 09:24 |
| DIFTOW | Desktop, and yes. | 09:24 |
| Mark__ | no, that seems to hang | 09:24 |
| Slart | DIFTOW: then at least 8 GB.. ie the same as the internal memory | 09:24 |
| rww | DIFTOW: if you want hibernation, you need as much contiguous swap space as memory you'll be using. so, to be on the safe side, 8GB or more. | 09:25 |
| DIFTOW | Should I do more than 8? Or is more than 8 not needed? | 09:25 |

| rww | DIFTOW: assuming you're not tight on hard-disk space, I'd throw a little bit extra on there, just to avoid the partition creator rounding down and messing things up | 09:25 |

| acidflash | JohnHeikkila: ok well basically this is whats happening, i have tried using apt-get install and tried compiling from source | 09:42 |
| Chr|s | how do I install login themes? art-manager does not work for me | 09:42 |
| JohnHeikkila | acidflash: Go on | 09:42 |
| acidflash | JohnHeikkila: i want to ./configure a program to use libevent, but when i point to the dir where libevent is, it NEVER seems to be able to find it | 09:42 |
| acidflash | JohnHeikkila: with apt-get it was in /usr/lib and with source install i made --prefix=/usr/local/ so it installed to /usr/local/lib | 09:42 |
| JohnHeikkila | Yes | 09:43 |
| acidflash | is there something im supposed to do to initiate the libevent? why cant any configure files find it ? | 09:43 |
| JohnHeikkila | hmmm...it could be that it adds a /lib before the libevent | 09:43 |
| acidflash | i am running as root | 09:43 |
| acidflash | JohnHeikkila: so try /usr/local/lib/ ? | 09:43 |
| acidflash | with the extra / ? | 09:43 |
| JohnHeikkila | You could try | 09:44 |
| acidflash | checking for libevent... configure: error: Cannot find the libevent library in /usr/local/lib/ | 09:44 |
| JohnHeikkila | Are you using an 64 bit machine? | 09:44 |
| acidflash | yes sir | 09:44 |
| JohnHeikkila | then it's lib64, not lib | 09:45 |
| JohnHeikkila | At least should be if your ubuntu is 64 bit | 09:45 |

| avi_ | Hey guys, I'm using Wordpress+Apache2+vsftpd on Lucid. Everything works great, except for ftp+wordpress. For example, if I need have the wordpress web UI install a theme (which means writing to /var/www/wordpress), it asks for FTP login details. The only FTP account I have is my account, which obviously doesn't have write access to there. So how can I either make another account that can write to there or enable a "root" ftp account? Thank | 09:49 |
| avi_ | s! | 09:49 |
| Putr | acidflash: will do | 09:50 |
| cherva | can someone tell me how to make iptables drop the connection if the ip IS NOT xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx | 09:51 |

| acidflash | xiaclo: i had both man | 09:51 |

| saulus | hi. for 2 days I struggle with grub2. After reboot I always get to the bash prompt. I know how to manually start my machine from there but I dont understand why the menu does not show up. Any ideas? I have /boot on the / partition on a lvm2 on a raid1. | 09:59 |
| avi_ | I have given a user CHOWN of a directory, and he can create files in it. However, when that user logins in via FTP, he cannot. What gives? | 09:59 |
| saulus | the ubuntu-server installer did not get it | 09:59 |
| glebihan | avi_, FTP permissions are specific | 10:00 |
| acidflash | xiaclo: its in /usr/local/include | 10:00 |
| glebihan | avi_, what FTP server are you using ? | 10:00 |
| avi_ | glebihan, And therefore not attached to chowning and stuff? | 10:00 |
| avi_ | glebihan, vsftpd | 10:00 |
| misher | saulus: can you update grub with update-grub? | 10:00 |
| avi_ | glebihan, Though I can change it if you feel there's a better choice. | 10:00 |
| datune | is it normal for Ubuntu running on ESX not being able to read the disk tables, cause I found the following errors in my syslog: -snip- [sda] Test WP failed, assume Write Enabled -/snip- | 10:01 |
| === Putr is now known as Putr|Away | ||
| glebihan | avi_, I don't know vsftpd do I couldn't tell if there's a better, I'm used to proftpd | 10:01 |
| acidflash | avi_: check the conf, it probably has read-only enabled | 10:02 |
| avi_ | glebihan, That was the other one I read about in googling.. I installed vsftpd because that's what the Ubuntu man suggested, but it looked like it hadn't been updated in years. I'll install proftpd | 10:02 |
| xiaclo | acidflash: try adding /usr/local as a prefix to the configure script, or /usr/local/include | 10:03 |
| glebihan | avi_, in that case also install gproftd, it's the GUI for administration of the server | 10:03 |

Where do I install the bootloader to keep both systems in dualboot? I have teamviewer ready in case anyone | 10:03 |
| vlad__ | would look at my system. Also I wanted to know if there is any advantage in using reiserfs over ext4. | 10:03 |
| avi_ | glebihan, removed and install proftpd. | 10:03 |

| avi_ | glebihan, without ANY modifications, it worked flawlessly. | 10:04 |
| glebihan | avi_, nice :) | 10:04 |
| acidflash | xiaclo: it should still be able to find the library though shouldnt it ?? | 10:04 |
| saulus | misher: I did but it did not solve the bug | 10:04 |
| avi_ | glebihan, wordpress installed the theme via FTP via web UI | 10:04 |
| darkas | hi | 10:05 |
| xiaclo | acidflash: it should | 10:05 |
| avi_ | glebihan, That's awesome. Thanks for your help! Any idea why vsftpd was being silly? | 10:05 |
| vlad__ | hi darkas | 10:05 |
| acidflash | xiaclo: have you installed anything with the "--with-libevent=[libeventdir]" prefix and had it work ? | 10:05 |
| glebihan | avi_, you're welcome, and I don't know, and probably something in the configuration, I've read that vsftpd has allow lists for different operations, so maybe it was that | 10:06 |

| avi_ | glebihan, Right, but shouldn't ftp users have at least the same rights as shell ones? | 10:10 |

| glebihan | avi_, that's a security matter, file system permissions cannot be ignored | 10:11 |

| glebihan | avi_, nice :) | 10:12 |
| acidflash | xiaclo: its looking for /usr/local/lib/lib/libevent* | 10:12 |

| acidflash | xiaclo: yes sir, thanks for your help | 10:14 |
| glebihan | avi_, it's taken a lot of hard work to get there | 10:14 |

| avi_ | glebihan, And it really does show. It kills me that more people don't use it though. It's literally perfect for the kids of the world.. learn about computers, security, and good administrative practice in an easy and "fun" environment... | 10:15 |
| saulus | misher: this happened after a clean ubuntu-server 10.04 installation on a lvm2(raid1(/dev/sda /dev/sdb)) | 10:16 |

| saulus | misher: I manually can boot the system when passing the right commands to grub2. #grub2 told me that the grub-menu is missing because of a wrong prefix. | 10:16 |
| saulus | misher: thats what I am examing now | 10:17 |
| mortsmel | guys, i'm trying to figure out an issue with my bridge that i setup between eth1 and eth2. the bridge is working fine... as in bridging raffic ... however mail, http, all say that they're coming from the ip of the bridge filter box when looking at logging and a tcpdump ... why? my iptables is completely empty... | 10:17 |
| avi_ | glebihan, That is true. But I really don't see PC gaming lasting much longer. Consoles, especially mobile ones, are a MUCH more logical alternative, with almost no down side. Though I myself don't use consoles and still keep a W7 partition around for Call of Duty.. shh.. ;) | 10:17 |
| glebihan | avi_, :) | 10:18 |
| vlad__ | avi how are the games in wine performing? | 10:18 |
| xiaclo | this is kind of off-topic, but the new VMware is actually quite nice for gaming ... I've got windows 7 running in a vmware, and it's decent performance, with no wine compatibility issues =) | 10:19 |
| vlad__ | sorry fot the ot question | 10:19 |
| xiaclo | vlad: wine performance isn't usually an issue, it's getting the games to work properly in the first place ... what does work, usually works very well =) | 10:20 |
| avi_ | vlad__, Well, I (who like many Ubuntu/Linux users) who likes to mess around with software, don't find it much of a problem. But its not really a viable alternative for games because of the extreme hacking needed to get good preformance out of them. I've gotten Starcraft I working flawlessly, and Call of Duty 4 worked pretty well for a while. But for normal apps, wine works great. It's just the porting of DirectX and all those wrappers that | 10:20 |
| avi_ | gums up the works.. | 10:20 |
| sacarlson | mortsmel: I'm not sure I see your problem. it sounds like it works normally. when you bridge you make 2 ethernets act as one with the same ip and mac as far as I know. | 10:21 |
| vlad__ | avi thanks, I was eager to know if I could run MS flight simulator X in wine :D | 10:21 |
| mortsmel | sacarlson: the idea is for it to be transparent. | 10:22 |
| vlad__ | avi, xiaclo, would you guys mind giving me a tip about how to install ubuntu? | 10:23 |
| === kevr1 is now known as kevr | ||
| avi_ | vlad__, Sure. And if you're unsure about certain app's compatibility in Wine, just search the "wine app-db", it has literally thousands of applications that have been reviewed for compatibility with Wine. | 10:24 |
| vlad__ | avi, I am about to install ubuntu 10.04 from my live dvd. I have three drives, sda-sdc. Sda is vista, I want to keep it in dualboot. Sdc is available, formated to reiserfs {just for fun}. I have tried installing ubuntu x before, but grub never started after installation. I had to repair mbr with vista dvd and install linux again. Where do I install the bootloader to keep both systems in dualboot? I have teamviewer ready in case anyone would | 10:25 |
| vlad__ | look at my system. Also I wanted to know if there is any advantage in using reiserfs over ext4. | 10:25 |
| avi_ | vlad__, And you'll have to give more information about wanting to install ubumtu :) | 10:25 |

| dodi | what can I do when the touchpad doesn't work? | 10:25 |
| avi_ | dodi, Plug in a mouse? :D | 10:25 |
| dodi | I just was away and had forgotten my mouse, and then I noticed that the touchpad is not working properly | 10:26 |
| ectospasm | dodi: make sure the touchpad is enabled | 10:26 |
| dodi | it's okay in the login dialog, but no more when I'm logged in | 10:27 |
| xiaclo | vlad__, two ways to do that ... one, you can install grub on your main drive (sda) and pass off to windows using grub (it should detect it during the install) or you can install grub on sdc and choose which hard drive to boot to using your bios boot order | 10:27 |
| avi_ | vlad__, Hmmm.. So my thought would to be to install it to the default location. | 10:27 |
| dodi | perhaps login uses BIOS? | 10:27 |
| avi_ | vlad__, Have you considered Wubi? | 10:27 |
| fdfviu | HI, How to set up vim-gnome with vim 7.3? | 10:28 |
| vlad__ | avi yes, wubi works fine, it just limits me to max 30 gb of linux space, I wanted to learn it the "correct" way, but got stuck with grub not loading twice | 10:28 |
| misher | saulus: you can try to add your commands within menuentry block in /etc/grub.d/*custom file | 10:28 |
| xiaclo | mortsmel: it should be transparent ... briding shouldn't change anything at all about the traffic, it should make the interfaces act like a switch | 10:28 |
| misher | saulus: and update grub again | 10:28 |
| vlad__ | avi the default location would be sda? | 10:28 |
| xiaclo | mortsmel: try a command for me, sudo iptables -vnL -t nat | 10:29 |
| vlad__ | xiaclo, how do I pass of to windows? | 10:29 |
| dodi | ectospasm, how can I force an hardware check, to install the touchpad driver? | 10:30 |
| xiaclo | vlad__ during the install it should detect your windows installation before it installs grub, it will list what is detected, and then ask if this is everything ... make sure windows is listed in there before installing grub | 10:30 |
| xiaclo | vlad__ as long as it detects it, you shouldnt have an issue, it will install grub over the windows mbr, then grub will give you an option to boot into windows or ubuntu | 10:30 |
| vlad__ | xiaclo, I thought so too, but twice, installing in default settings though selecting sdc as linux drive failed either to install or initialize grub, i am afraid to do it just by guessing :-) | 10:31 |
| saulus | misher: ty. I did lots of stuff, also changing device order in bios. It just booted for the first time. There is still no menu, but the system is booting, at least | 10:31 |
| vlad__ | how can I make sure it loads? | 10:31 |
| vlad__ | :D | 10:31 |
| ectospasm | dodi: I don't know off the top of my head, and my laptop isn't here | 10:32 |
| Kimiskov | hi, I want to scan my windows drive for virus. What anti virus program will you recommand for Ubuntu? | 10:40 |
| glebihan | Kimiskov, the only one I know is CLAM, it works quite well | 10:41 |
| glebihan | Kimiskov, but I don't know how it'll handle scanning your Windows system | 10:41 |

| seyfi | Hello, I used to change app language from terminal in the past like this ==> LC_ALL=fr_FR.utf8 gedit <== but it's not working now (karmic). Why? (locale -a command shows fr_FR support) | 10:43 |
| glebihan | seyfi, you have to set the LANGUAGE variable to "fr" | 10:44 |
| Kimiskov | ok, then I will give it a try. Just wondering why they dont write anything about hard drives, but anyway. | 10:44 |
| seyfi | glebihan: ok, thanks, so LC_ALL and LANG vars are obsolete now? | 10:45 |
| glebihan | seyfi, no LANG is still used | 10:45 |
| glebihan | seyfi, actually, I'm myself having some trouble understanding the use of each variable | 10:46 |
| glebihan | seyfi, but I know that using both LANGUAGE and LANG works | 10:46 |
| seyfi | glebihan: LANG does not work for me, only LANGUAGE did. Anyway thanks. | 10:47 |

| unhackmee | glebihan, yes- its a hassle to select every individual file, any workarounds are appriciated | 10:57 |
| unhackmee | glebihan, yes.. nautilus works fine | 10:57 |
| glebihan | unhackmee, well in that case, it's probably something related to the Javascript code they're using, I'm sorry but I probably won't be able to help you | 10:59 |
| unhackmee | glebihan, yeah, thanks- too bad i have to use the win box agiain.. thank you though,, | 10:59 |
| glebihan | unhackmee, you may find somebody who's used mediafire too around here | 10:59 |
| glebihan | unhackmee, you're welcome, sorry I couldn't help | 11:00 |

| glebihan | Kartagis, do not remove it, but change copy to mpeg4 or something like that | 11:09 |

| xiaclo | Nach0z so the other way around, you are trying to copy your laptop's drive onto your desktop drive? | 11:24 |
| xiaclo | Nach0z going to have to be a little more clear, ultimately, what are you trying to do? recover the data from your desktop, or wipe it out, or something else? | 11:25 |

| SmokeyD | hey everyone. If I use the nvidia binary driver under Lucid amd64 with my geforce 6600 gpu, the screen blinks a black screen allmost with every menu I open or window I move and stuff. The desktop usually also freezes then for like 10-20 secs. Everything boots normally, the desktop just doesn't work properly. Also sometimes buttons turn blue or some tekst get's garbled to colored squares and stuff. With the standard driver that doesn't happen, but that | 11:34 |

| yorkie_ian | SmokeyD: all I did, and I am no techie, is go into the X Server settings and looked for the model of my monitor, changed that to suit, I still get monitor 'unknown' tho, but it works | 11:41 |
| SmokeyD | yorkie_ian: yeah I know. I am experiencing a problem with the driver though. As I said, the nvidia binary driver (which you need to enable in hardware drivers in order to use the nvidia settings tool) is causing my whole desktop to work properly. That is my main problem | 11:42 |
| xiaclo | avi_ What is the path you are using for the document? are you using the full path or a relative one? | 11:42 |
| avi_ | xiaclo, my .htaccess contains: ErrorDocument 404 /notfound.html | 11:43 |
| avi_ | xiaclo, and notfound.html is in /var/www | 11:43 |
| xiaclo | avi_ and since you've changed the htaccess have you restarted apache? | 11:43 |
| avi_ | xiaclo, Many a time, yes. sudo service apache2 restart, right? | 11:44 |
| yorkie_ian | SmokeyD: sorry I can't be of anymore help than that really | 11:44 |
| SmokeyD | then there is the additional problem with the nouveau driver (when I have the nvidia driver disabled) that doesn't detect the screen (and native resolution) properly, but that is secondary. I just want the nvidia driver to work somehow. | 11:44 |
| xiaclo | avi_ yep, that'll do | 11:44 |

| nicoicon | hello, question about pinning: I'm on lucid trying to replace php5.3 with php5.2 from karmic. Followed a tutorial to add a sources.list.d/karmic.list and a preferences.d/php. Was able to install php5.2 by doing 'aptitude -t karmic ...'. I can verify using 'apt-cache policy php5' that the karmic version is pinned (it shows 3 stars next to the karmic version. Now the problem: if I do 'aptitude upgrade', my php5.2 gets upgraded to php5.3. | 11:50 |
| jrib | !pinning | nicoicon | 11:50 |
| ubottu | nicoicon: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 11:50 |
| jonnor | spencer_: Does it show up in your file browser? | 11:50 |
| xiaclo | avi_ does it give you the standard 404 page? | 11:51 |
| nicoicon | !pinning | 11:51 |
| nat_ | jrib: well i made the backup as ROTT, so the files belong to user:ROOT. now i copied them back to the system, they still belong to ROOT. so it's wrong some files /var/lib/samba/* should be readable by users? | 11:51 |
| nicoicon | i already read the faq | 11:51 |
| avi_ | xiaclo, No, and that's the odd thing. chrome just says that the link is broken.. | 11:51 |
| nicoicon | I don't understand what "APT::Default-Release "hardy";" does so I didnt follow that advice | 11:52 |
| nat_ | jrib: where can i find the permissions as they should be | 11:52 |
| Chuwiey | Hi, I'm getting this error from pptpd: CTRL: PTY read or GRE write failed (pty,gre)=(6,7) --- can anyone help me understand what I should do? (Trying to connect to pptp vpn via iphone on 3G network) | 11:52 |
| jrib | nat_: you should preserve permissions on your backup next time. I have 1 file in /var/lib/samba/ called secrets.db with ownership root:root. If no one around has what you need, use a live cd or virtual system | 11:52 |
| spencer_ | jonnor not that I can tell, any guess as to what it would appear as? | 11:52 |
| xiaclo | avi_ is this a live website? i just want to see what you're seeing | 11:52 |
| nat_ | jrib: thank you. i know .. my bad. | 11:53 |
| avi_ | xiaclo, ooh, this is interesting. I tried opening up a random nonexistant page in links, and I get the page..! Must be chrome..? | 11:53 |
| xiaclo | avi_ dump cache? | 11:53 |
| avi_ | xiaclo, About to, trying firefox | 11:53 |
| jonnor | spencer_: the label of the drive. It should be on the right hand side | 11:53 |
| jonnor | spencer_: anyhow, is the Window stuff on a separate harddrive? | 11:53 |
| avi_ | xiaclo, Awww! Come on! I spent 20 minutes on this and it's stupid freaking chrome's over-excited cache system!! | 11:54 |
| xiaclo | lol | 11:54 |
| avi_ | xiaclo, bah. what a bummer. I'll have to remember to not use a daily build of a browser for web testing in the future lol. | 11:54 |
| avi_ | xiaclo, thanks for your help :) | 11:54 |
| xiaclo | avi_ heh | 11:54 |
| xiaclo | no problem | 11:54 |
| spencer_ | jonnor, no same HD, it's a netbook, and the onl ything is the ubuntu fileystems | 11:55 |
| jonnor | spencer_: Did you install Ubuntu from within Windows? | 11:56 |
| spencer_ | yeah | 11:56 |
| spencer_ | jonnor thanks for all your help, I jsut checked in /host and it's there | 11:56 |
| jonnor | spencer_: yeah :) | 11:57 |
| nicoicon | Reading the faq again. Should I use holding instead of pinning if what I want is lucid with just a few old karmic packages? | 11:57 |
| spencer_ | now wait | 11:57 |
| spencer_ | too long since I dived into the workings of windows, anyone remember which folder user stuff was stored in? | 11:57 |
| xiaclo | specer_ which version? | 11:58 |
| rdw200169 | spencer_: Documents and Settings? | 11:58 |
| spencer_ | Never mind | 11:58 |
| spencer_ | It's all coming back ot me now | 11:58 |
| spencer_ | you guys were a great help, thanks so much | 11:58 |

| nicoicon | anyone using lucid with php5.2 ? | 12:00 |
| dri245 | this room is for reg'd ppl only, rite? | 12:02 |
| xiaclo | nicoicon should be as easy as 'sudo aptitude hold php5.2' | 12:02 |
| jrib | dri245: at the moment it's +r but people can enter by answering a security question | 12:02 |
| nicoicon | xiaclo: trying that | 12:02 |
| dri245 | +r sucks. why would people have to register names on such a lame network just to get in here | 12:03 |
| avi_ | xiaclo, Upon further investiagtion, it appears that chrome refuses to do the 404 page even with a total cache/data purge.. | 12:04 |
| jrib | dri245: let's move on, this channel is for support. The reason is because freenode has been getting attacks from bots lately. | 12:04 |
| dri245 | kk | 12:04 |
| hanmrl | Hello folks, I was wondering whether the ubuntu netbook edition allows for user interactions via touchscreen. So my question: does the ubuntu netbook edition support operating solely via touchscreen as with a tablet, i.e. with gestures etc.? | 12:04 |
| dri245 | cya | 12:04 |
| xiaclo | hanmrl it does, assuming ubuntu can detect your tablet, which is a large assumption, I suggest you set it up with a keyboard initially until you get everything working ok | 12:06 |
| hanmrl | xiaclo: okay, thanks. | 12:07 |
| xiaclo | avi_ really strange ... at least it's a chrome issue and not apache =) | 12:08 |
| nicoicon | just found out the pinning setup I made works fine with apt-get (apt-get upgrade leaves php5.2 alone), but aptitude upgrade will try to upgrade to 5.3 | 12:09 |
| nicoicon | are there any aptitude-specific settings I need to look at? | 12:09 |
| nicoicon | (and I would prefer not to 'hold' a package version, because I still want security upgrades) | 12:09 |
| xiaclo | nicoicon aptitude sitll uses apt as a backend, which is where you set the pinning, it really shouldn't be overriding it | 12:10 |
| === Greyscale is now known as Greysc[a]le | ||
| nicoicon | well it does | 12:10 |
| jrib | nicoicon: pinning does what you want | 12:10 |
| jrib | aptitude doesn't override pinning | 12:10 |
| xiaclo | nicoicon if aptitude is the issue, fix it through aptitude ... sudo aptitude forbid-version php5.3 | 12:10 |
| avi_ | xiaclo, Okay now I'm getting worried. I've just removed chromium daily and installed google-chrome from google.com, and I get the same error. Do you happen to have a chrome install that you could test this out on your end in? | 12:11 |
| zealiod | is it possible to change my kernel from lucid to jaunty? | 12:11 |

| matteo1990 | hi all, when i start ubuntu i get only blank screen. I read that i have to change the grub file to eliminate quiet and splash. I changed default/grub with a livecd but nothing changed. Do i need to update the grub file? How | 12:29 |
| yrth | hello... I have just installed ubuntu 10.04 on my desktop. The installation goes fine, but it won't boot up. I have two 1TB disks connected in a RAID array (settings are available just after choosing boot options or bios settings). I have even tried an installation with the RAID array removed, and one even physically disconnected... the results are the same, the system won't boot. Pls help! | 12:30 |
| xiaclo | matteo1990 you need to run grub-mkconfig to update it, or manually edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 12:31 |
| matteo1990 | xiaclo, i am in gentoo livecd and i have mounted the disk. How to run grub-mkconfig? Do i need the path of the prog? | 12:33 |
| gnomefreak | what is wrong with grub-update | 12:33 |
| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 12:33 |
| xiaclo | matteo1990 it should be /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig ... im not sure gentoo uses grub2 though | 12:33 |
| gnomefreak | hi BluesKaj | 12:33 |
| yogg | Has someone openca running on an Ubuntu 10.04 machine? | 12:34 |
| xiaclo | gnomefreak grub-update is for grub legacy, which considering he is editing files in /etc/default, i doubt he has | 12:34 |
| matteo1990 | xiaclo, i need to run the program in the mounted disk with ubuntu | 12:34 |
| gnomefreak | !grub2 | 12:35 |
| ubottu | 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 | 12:35 |
| xiaclo | matteo1990 it's probably safer to just edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg ... make the same changes in there, that is the file grub actually reads off | 12:35 |
| matteo1990 | xiaclo, is preety difficoult, dunno what to change, may you help me? | 12:36 |
| yrth | I'm running live CD at the moment, forgot to mention | 12:36 |
| Vlad__ | hi there | 12:36 |
| xiaclo | matteo1990 sure ... it's very close to the bottom ... search for 'menuentry' and it should get you to the right place ... after that, you are removing quiet and splash from the end of the linux line | 12:38 |
| Vlad__ | guys, i just have installed ubuntu, yet grub does not start again. it is the third isntallation with the same result, can someone help? I am in live dvd now | 12:38 |
| xiaclo | Vlad__ welcome back, does it get to grub at all? | 12:39 |
| Vlad__ | xiaclo, hi man | 12:39 |
| Rajko | how do i stop ubuntu from auto-opening nautilus windows of each mounted partition once i plug in a usb device | 12:39 |
| Vlad__ | no it doesnt, just black page | 12:39 |
| xiaclo | Vlad__ does it say loading stage 1.5 or anything like that? | 12:39 |
| Vlad__ | nope. after bios start and finding the disks, exactlz when you would expect grub or vista to give the loader, it is just black and blinking cursor. I have tried installing grub to sda as you guys adviced | 12:40 |
| Vlad__ | seems like my system is :special: lol | 12:41 |
| matteo1990 | xiaclo, ok i have found menuentry, but still not splash | 12:42 |
| Vlad__ | xiaclo, would you consider running teamviewer to lock to me? | 12:42 |
| matteo1990 | xiaclo, found | 12:42 |
| xiaclo | hmm, that may help | 12:42 |
| yrth | Vlad__ I have a very similar problem, my disks are in the RAID array though... but had the same problem even when they were configured as 2 separate MS-DOS disks | 12:42 |

| Vlad__ | yrth how did you create raid? onboard? | 12:45 |
| Rastafari | I downloaded the ISO file to install the 10.04 LTS version .... what I have to do to install it ? | 12:45 |
| littlepenguin | Rastafari, burn it and boot from it | 12:45 |
| Dr_Willis | !burn | 12:46 |
| ubottu | CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, brasero, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus-CD-Burner, GToaster, xcdroast (GNOME), wodim (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 12:46 |
| Rastafari | burn on cd? | 12:46 |
| littlepenguin | yes | 12:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Rastafari: its a cd iso image file - so yes. 'burn' it to a cd. with a a program taht can burn 'image' files. | 12:46 |
| Rastafari | totem may do it? | 12:46 |
| yrth | vlad__ not sure what that means, but I create RAID array just after bios loads, I can configure it. When I was installing ubuntu, it recognised the disk is one huge 2TB disk, which is correct, as the array is set that way | 12:47 |
| Ichat | Vlad stil there? | 12:47 |
| Dr_Willis | totem is a media player.. not a burner. | 12:47 |
| littlepenguin | totem??is a media player... | 12:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Rastafari: right click on the iso, select burn.. | 12:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Rastafari: what OS are you using right now? | 12:47 |
| Rastafari | than after the cd is ready , when Im going to install it , I will lose my files ? | 12:47 |
| yrth | vlad__ but I also removed RAID array and tried to install it on one of the "normal" ms-dos disks... still the same | 12:47 |
| KalEl | hi i am building a new computer with ubuntu being the primary OS in it. is there any issues i should be aware of if i keep it on 24/7? | 12:47 |
| Rastafari | Im using ubuntu 8.04 | 12:48 |
| yrth | vlad__ even when I physically disconnected one disk, it wouldn | 12:48 |
| yrth | vlad__ make any difference | 12:48 |
| Ichat | yrth: - what mobo you have | 12:48 |
| hateball | Rastafari: if you're using 8.04 you can just upgrade with update-manager | 12:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Rastafari: i think 'brassero' is the default cd burning app in 8.04 | 12:48 |
| Rastafari | hateball, why would I do that if Im with the ISO | 12:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Rastafari: you are wanting to do a clean install? or upgrade.. theres reasons to do one or the other.. | 12:48 |
| yrth | Ichat, what's mobo? | 12:48 |
| Ichat | motherboard | 12:49 |
| Rastafari | I wanna to do upgrade , but , Im having trouble to do it .... | 12:49 |
| rdw200169 | KalEl: not really... if you aren't gonna be around it every day, you could use something like monit to keep an eye on certain processes, or track CPU load, etc... | 12:49 |
| Rastafari | thats why I got the iso file | 12:49 |
| yrth | Ichat, green LOL, I don't know | 12:49 |
| yrth | Ichat, it's a work computer... from dell | 12:49 |
| matteo1990 | xiaclo, ok i got it now when i boot the pc i get some lines and then black screen.. the last one is Running /scripts/init-bottom Done. Any tips? | 12:49 |
| chandru_in | Has anyone got popups to work on IE6 isntalled using winetricks? | 12:49 |
| Rastafari | I downloaded the packets from the 10.04 lts version ... but when it was installing it locked on "debus" something | 12:49 |
| KalEl | rdw200169 i see thanks | 12:50 |
| Vlad__ | yrth Ichat, sorrz, couldnt type, i have teamviewer connection open | 12:50 |
| yrth | vlad__ no problem :) | 12:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Rastafari: 'you' downloaded what exactly? The system should of downloadd/installed the updates as needed.. | 12:50 |
| Ichat | yrth: - cuze that would matter ... as in you would probably want to find out how to disable your fakeraid option in the bios making it ata / sata compatible mode... and than try again. | 12:50 |
| yrth | ichat, how can I check for the motherboard? | 12:50 |
| Rastafari | Dr_Willis, man lets clarify something , Im not retarded ... | 12:51 |
| Rastafari | Dr_Willis, I used the updating tool on the ubuntu system | 12:51 |
| Rastafari | on "system" | 12:51 |
| yrth | ichat, so basically you want me to remove the RAID array? | 12:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Rastafari: then 'you' dident download things. you used teh update tool.. | 12:51 |
| Rastafari | what I downloaded ? O downloaded all packets from the 10.04 version | 12:51 |
| Ichat | yrth YES | 12:51 |
| Dr_Willis | it dow3nloaded them. | 12:51 |
| Ichat | yrth: - motherboards usually use fake raid ... | 12:52 |
| Rastafari | Dr_Willis, well it totally ((****@)() my system | 12:52 |
| Rastafari | Dr_Willis, cause it had problems when installing it | 12:52 |
| Rastafari | so I got the ISO fil | 12:52 |
| Rastafari | e | 12:52 |
| yrth | ichat, but I did that before and no change, the system would not boot... even when I installed it with the nofakeraid option ticked | 12:52 |
| Ichat | linux is verry not compatible with that - so if you want raid youd be better of installing it with software (mdadm) instead | 12:52 |
| Ichat | yrth: - did you use your drives with raid before? | 12:53 |
| yrth | ichat, I don't really care for raid, I just want my system to work hehehe so I can finally do some work hehe | 12:53 |
| yrth | ichat, yes | 12:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Rastafari: if you want to do a clean install. back up your imporntant data. burn the iso to cd.. boot the iso and reinstall. | 12:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Rastafari: that is proberly the easiest solution | 12:54 |
| Rastafari | Dr_Willis, good idea , I will have to learn to back up so | 12:54 |
| yrth | ichat, this is my 3rd day of trying different settings... I've installed the system at least 20 times with different hdd configurations | 12:54 |
| simplexio | yrth: just go into mobo raid setup, and delete fakeraid.. | 12:54 |
| Ichat | ah, - there we go, - now this is going to sound awfull but try installing your old windows xp (or vista or whatever to that drive, and abort (just pull the plug) it right after the installer has formatted the drive. | 12:54 |
| JohnHeikkila | Hello | 12:54 |
| JohnHeikkila | How can I change the lock screen (CTRL+ALT+L) | 12:55 |
| Ichat | ive had this problem with drives before where even GPARTED failed. and the win installer just ignored it all and formated the disk.. | 12:55 |
| Ichat | after that i just installed ubuntu No error at all | 12:55 |
| yrth | simplexio, good to see you :) not sure where it is, I can access the raid setting just after bios by ctrl+I, and I can remove the raid array, that | 12:55 |
| yrth | that's all I know | 12:56 |
| yrth | how to do it | 12:56 |
| yrth | ichat, so should I use windows installation disc to format it all and then install ubuntu again?\ | 12:56 |
| Ichat | yrth - also look into bios, and check if there is a sata mode option that makes you chose raid or ata mode (or simular) | 12:57 |
| yrth | ichat, I guess I haven't tried that yet, so maybe it's worth giving it a go | 12:57 |
| simplexio | yrth: on my old lanparty mobo, first in bios define that silicon chip is just sata drives and then in raid bios delete all raid stuff.. after that fdisk both harddrives and install | 12:57 |
| Rastafari | its possible to burn a CD-RW one time , and after it , burn it again with other files ? | 12:59 |
| yrth | but I don't seem to have anything like that in my bios. when I use that other menu (just after bios is loaded) I can remove RAID and then in the bios I can see 2 separate disk, otherwise it only says: RAID array, and there is nothing I can change | 12:59 |
| simplexio | yrth: and if you really want somekind rad, use mdadm. with note that you cant boot from raid0, attleast /boot has to be on normal disk partition (assuming that you dump all needed modules into kernel or initrd image | 12:59 |
| Rastafari | or I can just burn cd-rw one time ? | 12:59 |
| simplexio | yrth: you need to see tw separate disk in there | 12:59 |
| simplexio | Rastafari: cd-rw can be used several times | 13:00 |
| JohnHeikkila | Hey guys, anyone know how to change the lock screen? | 13:00 |
| yrth | simplexio, yes, I was doing that before as well, but just did normal installation, and ubuntu was supposed to use the entire disk space of the 1st disk... it didn't boot after that either | 13:00 |
| simplexio | yrth: did you get grub loading stage 1.5... prompt when t stalle ? | 13:01 |
| yrth | nope | 13:01 |
| simplexio | yrth: you did not boot from right harddisk | 13:01 |
| yrth | just coursor in the top left corner and then the screen went off | 13:01 |
| Rastafari | thx | 13:01 |

| calp | hello, I would like to compile and include a single module (vga_switcheroo) that was not compiled for the kernel-ppa kernel 2.6.34. Is there any way to do this, or do I have to install a whole new module? | 13:08 |
| brotspinne | how can I disable the visual effect on minimizing windows? | 13:08 |
| calp | (that module is included in the source for that kernel, but was not compiled) | 13:09 |
| Dr_Willis | brotspinne: install and use the 'ccsm' tool. and turn off whatyou dont want. or use simple-ccsm | 13:09 |
| Dr_Willis | !ccsm | brotspinne | 13:09 |
| ubottu | brotspinne: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 13:09 |

| Dr_Willis | Brandon__: a CD disk image file? I think the fuseiso and fuseis09660 programs can mount those. | 13:20 |
| Brandon__ | Dr_Willis, a friend made a .img file of my messed up usb flash drive | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Brandon__: if its a disk image file. Youy can mount it via the Loop feature of mount. | 13:21 |
| Brandon__ | Dr_Willis, pm? | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Brandon__: You may have issues if the image was made of a drive that had more then 1 parittion. You will need to use the offset feature of mount then | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Brandon__: going to the dr in 3 min.. so i cant help much mopre | 13:22 |
| Brandon__ | ok | 13:22 |
| Brandon__ | anyone else plz? | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Brandon__: theres tons of guides out there on mounting a 'hard disk image' | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | its basically the same as mounting an iso file image | 13:23 |
| Brandon__ | I'm a newbie | 13:23 |

| TopKatz | I can not get it to see my phone | 13:29 |

| TommyTom | as non-root* | 13:31 |
| Brandon__ | does it appear under Disk Utility? | 13:31 |
| TopKatz | nope | 13:32 |
| Brandon__ | you got any other OS besides Ub? | 13:32 |
| TopKatz | sure | 13:32 |
| ranner | maybe using apt to download src of wine and dependencies, compiling and running from a non-root-necessary folder | 13:32 |
| TopKatz | winblows | 13:32 |
| TopKatz | and macs at home | 13:32 |
| TommyTom | •ranner• well, he has the deb and extracted. he just needs to know where to put the files to run as user | 13:33 |
| Brandon__ | kk, so you're not completely stuck. lemme google a bit | 13:33 |
| ranner | ah, ok | 13:33 |
| ranner | put it somewhere under your home folder | 13:33 |
| ranner | and add the folder where the binaries are to the path | 13:33 |
| TommyTom | ok ill get him to try now | 13:33 |

Anyhow, just thought I'd share so that people know Ubuntu really is quite fine for 'professional' applications. We also did all the artwork in Ubuntu | 14:05 |
| kevdog | fantasy novel sounds dangerous | 14:06 |

| stewart_ | hello I am having a problem running remote SSH commands. When I run the ssh command remotley the terminal does not return control however if i login and run the command on the server after logging in then the command does release the terminal. Why would SSH not release the termnial when running remote commands? | 14:13 |

| stewart_ | inflex: thanks i have already asked in the openssl channel... its very quiet in there. Can you remember how you solved it? | 14:15 |
| Ichat | sorry bb in about 15 | 14:15 |
| inflex | stewart_: trying to remember... gimme a mo :) | 14:15 |
| inflex | stewart_: try invoking a bash shell and the command - or run a script that invokes a full shell. It's probably the stderr output that might be causing things to 'hang' | 14:17 |
| stewart_ | inflex: OK i will have a look in to that however the tool i am using "capistrano" a ruby on rails deployment tool does not invoke a shell as far as i know | 14:19 |
| inflex | stewart_: ssh foo@machine 'bash -c "echo hello; sleep 4"' | 14:19 |
| Pritesh | CONNECT irc.tucows.com 9999 | 14:19 |
| jpds | Pritesh: No. | 14:19 |
| inflex | stewart_: yes but you might need to force the remote session to run the command you want -in- bash like the above example | 14:19 |
| DracoZA | anyone good with vsftpd that can help me out ? | 14:20 |
| stewart_ | inflex the command you pasted releases the terminal | 14:20 |
| DracoZA | or maybe there is a better ftp server I can run on ubuntu ? | 14:20 |
| yrth | it didn't save the line, pksadiq | 14:21 |

| Le-Chuck_ITA | Hi there. There must be a bug in lucid lynx that resets the keyboard settings every time I reboot. I tried everything but at each reboot my keyboard settings are back to USA and IT as an alternative, but I only want IT | 14:24 |
| magnetron | DracoZA: have you read this guide? https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/ftp-server.html | 14:24 |
| Le-Chuck_ITA | Does anyone know how to solve this or at least did you already see it? | 14:24 |
| pksadiq | Can you see that line now-? | 14:24 |
| brotspinne | pkkm, yo | 14:24 |

| Brandon__ | brotspinne, no Debianese plz | 14:25 |
| pksadiq | Again the screen went blank? | 14:25 |
| inflex | stewart_: the other option might be (if you can) to invoke the process using "nohup" | 14:25 |
| yrth | I restarted and went back to removing quiet splash | 14:25 |
| inflex | stewart_: "man nohup" should give you the details you want. | 14:25 |
| yrth | if I do boot, it will scroll some lines very quickly and then the screen is off | 14:25 |
| pksadiq | K | 14:26 |
| pksadiq | then try the next option in boot menu | 14:26 |
| brotspinne | Brandon__, try sudo mount file.img /mnt/theplace -o loop -t iso9660 | 14:26 |

| DracoZA | magnetron double checked that, everything I have done is correct so far | 14:31 |
| magnetron | DracoZA: could you post your vsftpd config to a pastebin? | 14:32 |
| DracoZA | magnetron sure one sec | 14:32 |
| vargadanis | anyone had problems with DDD under ubuntu 10.04? specificly I can't leave the display part of the window once I click into it | 14:33 |
| yrth | pksadiq, I can just leave it and install with all the default settings then | 14:33 |
| yrth | that's how I normally do it anywya | 14:33 |
| pksadiq | K | 14:33 |
| pksadiq | but better to format and install | 14:33 |
| yrth | oh, this is before all that | 14:34 |
| DracoZA | magnetron http://pastebin.com/K3Zf41VC | 14:34 |
| yrth | this is before you choose to try it or install it | 14:34 |
| yrth | or check for disc defects or memory test | 14:34 |
| yrth | ok installing without any additional options | 14:36 |
| DracoZA | magnetron sorry was using nano, http://pastebin.com/mhvsrnQd | 14:36 |

| Besogon | Hello. I don't know why but I can't ping by NetBIOS computers located in other network | 14:39 |
| yrth | pksadiq, now I'm where I'm preparing the disk space | 14:39 |
| pksadiq | k | 14:40 |
| yrth | so... specify partitions manually? | 14:40 |
| pksadiq | let me pray, and I will be back within a few minutes | 14:40 |
| === WindPower_ is now known as WindPower | ||
| pksadiq | yes | 14:40 |
| yrth | ok | 14:41 |
| pksadiq | select manually | 14:41 |
| pksadiq | better to select ext4 if you use only newer linux like ubuntu, if you older you may select ext3 for installing ubuntu | 14:42 |
| DracoZA | magnetron external access seems to work once or twice and then stops entirely with Connection closed by remote host | 14:42 |
| erdnase | I need to work as productively as I can with GIMP with only 512mb of ram, any suggestions? Because saving as .jpg is killing me. | 14:42 |
| yrth | was selecting ext4 | 14:43 |
| guest0001 | i am using ubuntu 10.04 and i changed my password but my login keyring is different can someone tell me how to make them the same? | 14:43 |
| SmokeyD | hey everyone, I created a script which I placed on the desktop. How can I always make it run in a terminal, or always make it run without a terminal? Now it asks me everytime I double click it. | 14:44 |
| yrth | pksadiq, so I've got now: sda(sda1 ext4 /; sda5 ext4 /home; sda6 swap) and sdb(sdb1 ext4 /backup)... let me know when you're back :) | 14:46 |
| [zaf]-Coral | Hi guys, is there a verbose dd mode ? | 14:48 |
| arunkumar413 | I'm finding it difficult to develop .NET applications on ubuntu using MonoDevelop | 14:48 |
| yogg | [zaf]-Coral: You can ask dd for the status you have to sen a message with kill | 14:49 |
| erdnase | arunkumar413, I'm using wine. I find it difficult too. | 14:50 |
| yogg | [zaf]-Coral: kill -SIGUSR1 <dd PID> | 14:50 |
| DracoZA | magnetron any ideas ? | 14:50 |
| hanmrl | Does Ubuntu Netbook Edition ship with a handwriting recognition software? | 14:50 |
| rwat | SmokeyD: I think you might have better success if you add it as a launcher on the panel | 14:50 |
| arunkumar413 | erdnase: i'm trying to develop a small text editor program.What r u trying to develop | 14:50 |
| [zaf]-Coral | yogg: thanks, I must admit, that sounds quite wierd | 14:51 |
| glaucous | Is there a way to add a ppa, but ignore packages except a few specified? https://launchpad.net/~samrog131/+archive/ppa - I want this PPA, but only one package. I don't want to accidentally update/install to his other packages. | 14:51 |
| erdnase | arunkumar413, Some inventory checking stuff. And other programs as a hobby. :P | 14:51 |
| SmokeyD | rwat: hmm, ok. I don't really want to though. But I'll check. So no way to do that with a desktop script? | 14:51 |
| glaucous | except a few* | 14:51 |
| pksadiq | but I think it's better to keep at least one drive as fat32 or ntfs | 14:52 |
| magnetron | DracoZA: i think you need to use passive FTP when connecting outside of your network | 14:52 |
| yrth | why? pksadiq | 14:52 |
| DracoZA | magnetron is there an option for that in conf ? | 14:52 |
| magnetron | DracoZA: it's a client option | 14:52 |
| rwat | SmokeyD: this is a shell script? | 14:52 |
| arunkumar413 | k,which windowing system r u using,gtk or glade or something else | 14:52 |
| yrth | pksadiq, I can change that sdb to fat32 | 14:52 |
| yrth | I just can't see the difference lol | 14:53 |
| DracoZA | magnetron hmm im using plain dos command and linux terminal to try and connect | 14:53 |
| pksadiq | Because, Once when I played with some bootloader, I had to repair mbr, which distroid my entire disk except fat32 | 14:53 |
| magnetron | DracoZA: yes, the regular ftp command in linux has an option for passive mode | 14:53 |
| yrth | ok... that's fine, I will make the /backup sdb a fat32 | 14:54 |
| DracoZA | magnetron thanks I will look into that, appreciate the time | 14:54 |
| yrth | ok done... pksadiq, "next"? | 14:54 |
| pksadiq | If you have enough storage, keep very important files in both fat and ext | 14:54 |
| yrth | yeah | 14:55 |
| pksadiq | next carry on to install | 14:55 |
| yrth | ok, got "ready to install" there is the summary of everything I've chosen so far.... now, there is an icon "advanced" which opens advanced options: boot loader, ticked box with install boot loader, device for boot loader installation: /dev/sda | 14:57 |
| SmokeyD | rwat: yes it is indeed a shell script. I fixed it by moving the scripts to ~/bin and then creating launchers on the desktop with the command 'gnome-terminal -e "~/bin/shellscript.sh"' | 14:57 |
| pksadiq | k | 14:59 |
| pksadiq | continue | 14:59 |
| yrth | pksadiq, there is a drop box with different devices, but I can't choose /dev/sda1, only the main disk, sda | 14:59 |
| yrth | well, when I hit install now, it will just install it | 15:00 |
| richardsith | /msg nickserv register 27luglio77 richardsith@email.it | 15:00 |
| pksadiq | have you partitioned disk sda? | 15:00 |
| yrth | yes, hold on, let me copy it again | 15:00 |
| pksadiq | Nice password richad :) | 15:00 |
| yrth | pksadiq, so I've got now: sda(sda1 ext4 /; sda5 ext4 /home; sda6 swap) | 15:01 |
| pksadiq | k | 15:01 |
| yrth | install? | 15:01 |
| pksadiq | yes | 15:01 |
| yrth | ok... but this is exactly what I've been doing many times by now | 15:02 |
| yrth | except the fat32, but that is somehow irrelevant to the booting process | 15:02 |
| yrth | I can do it one more time though, no problem | 15:02 |
| pksadiq | yeah, but give a try, once more | 15:02 |
| yrth | it's installing | 15:03 |
| Zubb | Pidgin just isn't working out for me. | 15:05 |
| networm | i can't send any files with pidgin in yahoo :( why?! | 15:05 |
| AndrewMC | !details | Zubb | 15:05 |
| ubottu | Zubb: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 15:05 |
| yrth | oh... it failed to format in fat | 15:05 |
| yrth | but I can continue with the installation as that was the sdb disk anyway | 15:05 |
| yrth | pksadiq | 15:06 |
| Ichat | yrth: - stil no luck? | 15:06 |
| [zaf]-Coral | yogg: would you mind pointing me to a good location to learn more about sigusr and kill, I can't seem to find a comprehensive doc about it | 15:07 |
| yrth | no :( | 15:07 |
| yogg | [zaf]-Coral: only google "dd status" first link http://prefetch.net/blog/index.php/2006/06/11/printing-dd-status/ | 15:07 |
| yogg | [zaf]-Coral: hope this helps | 15:08 |
| [zaf]-Coral | yogg: awesome thanks, checking it out :) | 15:08 |
| yrth | installing again with pksadiq, but I've been doing the exact thing before, so don't have high hopes it will work, ichat | 15:08 |
| yogg | [zaf]-Coral: np | 15:08 |
| Zubb | On pidgin I'm running 2.7.3, My OS is ubuntu lucid. I got the newest pidgin for audio and video chat, I installed all the deps and libraries (gstreamer) (libnice) (farsight2) and all the gstreamer plugins, My webcam works fine but when I go to Pidgin plugins and configure voice and chat it closes pidgin | 15:08 |
| TheBigS | i've hosed apt, can someone help me rescue it? | 15:08 |
| TheBigS | i was installing KDevelop (Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit) and I got a segfault when processing shared-mime-info | 15:09 |
| yrth | ichat... should I use windows to format both disks as they aren't in the raid array now, and then try linux? | 15:09 |
| TheBigS | now apt is stuck on E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 15:10 |
| TheBigS | with a bunch of error packages listed, how to i back apt out of this corner? | 15:10 |
| Ichat | yrth: what does the installer say about your disk, ... mine said it to be in dev/mapper/somename does yours show dev/hda or /dev/sda or even /dev/hd0 | 15:11 |
| yrth | it shows them as sda and sdb | 15:11 |
| jwm123 | can anyone help with zeitgeist and gnome activity journal? | 15:12 |
| yrth | so I partition them as follows: sda(sda1 ext4 /; sda5 ext4 /home; sda6 swap) | 15:12 |
| Ichat | hmm, at least thats not *fckd than | 15:12 |
| donnkeyyyy | tracy69 are you here????? | 15:12 |
| yrth | ichat, there is absolutely nothing in the installation process that would suggest further problems | 15:13 |
| Zubb | I heard pidgin voice and chat works on slackware, I might reformat my laptop, I'm stumped | 15:13 |
| pksadiq | Wow,wait, I forgot yrth, did you check the bios settings? | 15:14 |
| yrth | ichat, live CD works great, installation goes smoothly, and then... bummer | 15:14 |
| pksadiq | Whether raid is activated? | 15:14 |
| donnkeyyyy | whats a wifi usb adapter that Ubuntu will ALREADY pick up??? | 15:15 |
| donnkeyyyy | and you dont have to install drivers | 15:15 |
| === Guest36815 is now known as sloopy | ||
| Ichat | pksadiq: - does the ubuntu live cd support something like a hardware listing tool? | 15:15 |
| yrth | when I get to bios settings, there is nothing to choose about raid.... there is an additional menu (after bios page disappears) that I can there create or delete my RAID disks | 15:15 |
| yrth | however, depending on those setting, bios then sees the hdd confuguration as one RAID array or 2 separate disks | 15:16 |
| pksadiq | I remember , once I activated raid I experienced such a problem | 15:16 |
| yrth | at the moment, it's 2 separate disks, raid is not configured | 15:16 |
| Patero-ng | hey guys | 15:16 |
| Ichat | donnkeyyyy: - not sure, but all drivers (even broadcom ones) are mostly in /usr/share/local repository/ even when the hardware tool doesnt seem to find them you could still manually install | 15:16 |
| Patero-ng | is ubuntu a secret OS can I watch my bank account, ebay, paypal on it | 15:17 |
| Patero-ng | with 0 risk | 15:17 |
| Ichat | Patero-ng: - thats not upto ubuntu but up to your back | 15:17 |
| Patero-ng | for the longest time I taught emails from mail.com were secure but is filling with connections from lots of adwares sites | 15:18 |
| Ichat | ubuntu supports ssl and other sercured connections but its up to your banck to make them avail to you | 15:18 |
| yrth | pksadiq, ichat, there was a little bit of a strange question when I changed from raid to ms-dos, when it wanted to format the disks in the next tinstallation, it said that is | 15:18 |
| Patero-ng | well I mean windows has lots of exploitable dll | 15:18 |
| abhinav_singh1 | i am having a private ip address and i am using sendmail to send mail using php function but i am not able to do so..i mean mail is not being sent please tell me how to fix it | 15:18 |
| Patero-ng | no matter if u have a firewall things can get ruined so does ubuntu has a more secure interface | 15:18 |
| yrth | damn.... it said that there is a GPT (or GTP) signature on the partition board (or something like that) indicating raid... but said if it's not raid to continue | 15:19 |
| yrth | so I did | 15:19 |
| yrth | then the second installation didn't complain about it any more | 15:19 |
| Ichat | hmmz, | 15:20 |
| donnkeyyyy | well Ichat, do you know of any that it does pick up? | 15:20 |

| uRock | !cookie > joeb454 | 15:30 |
| red2kic | !latest | sid123 | 15:30 |
| ubottu | sid123: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 15:30 |
| red2kic | sid123: If you really really really need the latest bleeding stuffs, try your luck with finding VLC PPA at Launchpad.net | 15:30 |
| yrth | coz_ nvidia quadro nvs 295 (just reading it off the card lol) | 15:30 |
| Intrepd | sid123, there is a ppa that has 1.1.4 i think - if you google for it, you'd probably find it | 15:30 |
| sid123 | <ubottu>ok | 15:31 |
| sid123 | <red2kic>ok | 15:31 |
| iplaythisgame2 | join #vobcopy | 15:31 |
| coz_ | yrth, ok try rebooting and I believe befor it gets too far you have to ht the left shift key ...i believe to see the grub menu | 15:31 |
| yrth | coz_ we've tried that.... | 15:31 |
| yrth | I deleted "quiet splash" | 15:32 |
| coz_ | yrth, oh and you changed quiet splash to nomodeset | 15:32 |
| yrth | coz_ no, just deleted quiet splash | 15:32 |
| coz_ | yrth, try putting in NOMODESET then hit ctrl+x | 15:32 |
| coz_ | yrth, if that boots to desktop then immediately go to system/administration/hardware drivers and install the nvidia driver nvidia_current and reboot | 15:33 |
| dpac_ | jenda: Yeah, you shouldn't really use that recursively. You never know what permission might break your system up. | 15:33 |
| coz_ | yrth, it should reboot onto the deskto0p | 15:33 |
| Patero-ng | hello guys | 15:33 |
| Patero-ng | mmy question hasn't get answered hopefuly someone hears knows quite quiet | 15:33 |
| Patero-ng | I want to know if ubuntu is more secure then windows for seeing ur secret data such as bank or ebay, paypal | 15:34 |
| TheBigS | Help! i broke dpkg, something about a seg fault when configureing shared-mime-info: http://pastebin.com/FJRxVZZj | 15:34 |
| deepu | i had installed nvidia driver ............but i has a problem....my resolution is set to minimum | 15:34 |
| yrth | coz_ too late now... I need to install it again | 15:34 |
| th0r | Patero-ng: there is nothing in linux that is special about the link between you and internet sites, so no....it isn't more secure | 15:34 |
| yrth | used windows CD to format it lol | 15:34 |
| coz_ | yrth, ooooo ok | 15:34 |
| Patero-ng | th0r | 15:35 |
| iplaythisgame2 | vobcopy error Any takers? http://pastebin.com/n9udNLe1 | 15:35 |
| coz_ | yrth, oh? do you have maybe another system | 15:35 |
| yrth | coz_ don't worry, it won't take long | 15:35 |
| Patero-ng | windows has lots of vulnerable dlls that can be used to sniff ur data and perhaps screenshoot it | 15:35 |
| yrth | no, coz_ just ubuntu | 15:35 |
| Patero-ng | does ubuntu has such vulnerable material | 15:35 |
| Gordon_Gekko | anyone? | 15:35 |
| coz_ | yrth, well I was going to suggest using Dban ...you could possibly boot with live cd...download Dban and burn that to cd then boot using the Dban disk | 15:35 |
| th0r | Patero-ng: you didn't ask about linux being more secure than windows...you asked about using ebay, bank, etc. The OS is more secure, the network link is not | 15:35 |
| Patero-ng | is everyone seeing my question of just th0r | 15:36 |
| coz_ | yrth, this will allow a complete wipe of the hard drive if you want something like that | 15:36 |
| yrth | what's Dban, coz_? | 15:36 |
| Ichat | Gordon_Gekko: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=627471 - should stil work | 15:36 |
| Patero-ng | yea I know the security in theory lies on the browser and its protocols | 15:36 |
| ciupicri | how can I find out which package provides a file? | 15:36 |
| Patero-ng | but windows can betray dat so then is more secure to see that info on ubuntu | 15:36 |
| Patero-ng | ,.,. | 15:36 |
| Gordon_Gekko | Ichat, it is strange because it used to be working out of the box | 15:37 |
| yrth | coz_ pls don't go for a while :) | 15:37 |
| Gordon_Gekko | Ichat, thank you anyways :) | 15:37 |
| Patero-ng | most spywares sit in ur pc and act in the shadows u don't see diaglog msgs or errors just slow downs | 15:37 |
| Patero-ng | they want to know what u do quielt | 15:37 |
| th0r | Patero-ng: it would be much harder for linux to fall victim to a drive-by keylogger infection or such as that, yes. The design of the OS pretty much precludes the sort of infections windows encounters | 15:37 |
| Intrepd | iplaythisgame2, do you have a /dev/loop0? and do you have permissions to read from it? | 15:37 |
| coz_ | Patero-ng, well linux of course in general is more secure.... and you can secure that even more if you like....but if you want more information about security in linux or any OS for that matter you may want to go to blackhat.com and take a few hours to read their reports | 15:38 |
| Patero-ng | does ubuntu has had security problems in the past is der a site I can look it up | 15:38 |
| coz_ | yrth, ok | 15:38 |
| coz_ | Patero-ng, all that information will be at blackhat.com | 15:38 |
| tjubaluba | red2kic, seems the standard "zoom" bindings isnt listed in compiz... this is the standard zoom that applications like browsers, adobe reader etc are using. | 15:39 |
| coz_ | Patero-ng, it will take some time to sort through the info on that site | 15:39 |
| Ichat | Patero-ng: - spyware is only installed by the user ... even windows running without root user is quite safe against it if not installing 'shady' software... but runnng ubuntu without untrusted repsoitories almost makes it imposible to get spyware or any mallware for that matter | 15:39 |
| yrth | coz_ why when I create partitions on that first sda disk, there is sda1 and then sda5 and sda6... where is 2 3 and 4? | 15:39 |
| red2kic | tjubaluba: Enhanced Zoom Desktop? | 15:40 |
| iplaythisgame2 | Intrepd, sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop /stuff/disk2/stuff.iso /stuff/iso/ | 15:40 |
| iplaythisgame2 | this is the command I used to mount the iso. I set all of it up so long ago, then forgot about it, I don't remember how exactly I had it set up before. | 15:40 |
| th0r | yrth: read up on primary and extended partitions...five is the first extended partition, and the system is saving 2-4 in case it needs additional primaries | 15:41 |
| coz_ | yrth, mmm that's interesting not sure ... how are you creating partitions? | 15:41 |
| yrth | coz_ not sure that really matters, but it's been like that for the past 10 or so installations lol | 15:41 |
| Oer | !resetpanels > Oer | 15:41 |
| ubottu | Oer, please see my private message | 15:41 |
| Ichat | yrth - thats normall | 15:41 |
| yrth | coz_ I do that while the installation process | 15:41 |
| coz_ | yrth, that is odd ,,, I can see why someone asked if raid was on | 15:41 |
| iplaythisgame2 | Intrepd, I'm not sure of the part the loop has in the funciton | 15:41 |
| yrth | thannks ichat :) | 15:41 |
| yrth | coz_ it was before | 15:41 |
| yrth | raid | 15:41 |
| coz_ | yrth, understood | 15:41 |
| Ichat | its a bit of a long story but its logical ebcause of the way that the parttion table works | 15:42 |
| coz_ | yrth, if possible .download and burn Dban it will boot and you can wipe the drive if you are that concerned | 15:42 |
| yrth | that's ok, ichat, if it's nothing to worry, then that's fine | 15:42 |
| gpannwitz | I installed apache, and put symbolic in /var/www/ which point to some directories in my home folder, but only some of them are listed when browsing to http://localhost/ | 15:43 |
| yrth | perhaps this is what needs to be done.... coz_ | 15:43 |
| muzer | Right. I've tried to fix this on a few occasions in the past, and never got anywhere, but it's irritating me again now. I use NVIDIA TwinView in KDE with the proprietary driver, but when an app wants to go in fullscreen, it ends up in a small window to the left side of my right monitor (so, if both monitors are counted as one continuous one, it would be in the middle). Is there a way to fix this? | 15:43 |
| dpac_ | gpannwitz: Check Permissions | 15:43 |
| muzer | I can't use the FOSS driver with the funny French name that I can never spell because it doesn't support 3D acceleration for my card. | 15:43 |
| Ichat | yrth - the win installer does about the same thing ... try that if you have the disk first... if that doesn't work you can allways | 15:44 |
| yrth | I did that | 15:44 |
| muzer | wait, why the hell am I asking in #ubuntu? I don't even use *Buntu any more on this computer, I'm having a senior moment, lol :P | 15:44 |
| yrth | installing again ubuntu | 15:44 |
| jenda | dpac_: somehow, I ended up with my home folder root-only - is there a better solution? | 15:45 |
| Ichat | yrth: - no luck ? | 15:45 |
| regeya | hm muzer :-> | 15:45 |
| yrth | I don't know yet | 15:45 |
| yrth | ichat | 15:45 |
| iplaythisgame2 | Intrepd, ok I mounted it this way sudo mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 /stuff/disk2/stuff.iso /stuff/iso | 15:45 |
| iplaythisgame2 | and still getting the Path thingy didn't work. | 15:45 |
| dpac_ | jenda: Recursively? | 15:45 |
| Ichat | lol it beter work cuz its getting quite anoying :P | 15:45 |
| muzer | still, if someone CAN answer, that would be great - it would be roughly portable, I can use my intuition (I'm on Gentoo here, now) | 15:46 |
| dpac_ | jenda: I mean all the files and folders inside home have become root only? | 15:46 |
| yrth | ichat, still need a few minutes to finish the installation... I know, tell me about it, it's my 3rd day on it :( | 15:46 |
| Trisox | any one knows if i can use htaccess to turnoff casesensetive for webservers? | 15:46 |
| jmknsd | aag, I can't watch any flash video because flash keeps crashing. | 15:46 |
| Trisox | its driving me nuts | 15:46 |
| yrth | brb | 15:46 |
| Ichat | sorry im not laughting at you - - no really im not :P - stupid computer stuff brrrr | 15:47 |
| jenda | dpac_: yep | 15:47 |
| xiaclo | Trisox it's not an apache thing, its a filesystem thing ... easy fix, format a drive vfat, and use that for your web server | 15:47 |
| jenda | dpac_: nevermind, will have to reinstall - I ran it recursively and it won't even start up properly now :) | 15:47 |
| Trisox | i got no access to the webserver.. | 15:47 |
| muzer | PM me if anyone has an answer - this channel is too noisy for someone with beeps enabled. | 15:48 |
| xiaclo | Trisox then no ... there is no way via htaccess | 15:48 |
| Trisox | :( | 15:48 |
| dpac_ | jenda: Well, you should be careful with that. I had done that once but I chmodded 777 fortunately | 15:48 |
| Trisox | yea be carefull using su and cmod 777 | 15:49 |
| Trisox | hehe | 15:49 |
| jenda | dpac_: well, then, off to reinstall :) | 15:49 |
| dpac_ | jenda: you can chmod 775 and chown if you still want to make it reusable. There will be issues if there are other users using the box. | 15:49 |
| regeya | #ubuntu has a captcha bot now???!? | 15:50 |
| jenda | The computer had an encrypted /home and swap - it used to be quite dificult. Is there an easy way to set that up now? | 15:50 |
| gpannwitz | dpac_: I made the directory in question readable by everyone. Does it make a difference that the linked to directory is a mount point ? | 15:50 |
| Ichat | regeya: - use an irc client :P | 15:50 |
| jenda | dpac_: no, it's a one-user laptop. I'll give that a try. | 15:50 |
| iplaythisgame2 | Intrepd, thanks, you pointed me down the right path. Got it figured out. | 15:50 |
| regeya | Ichat: uh... | 15:50 |
| dpac_ | jenda: Well, you can use this system till maverick releases, I guess. Its just 30 days now. | 15:51 |
| Ichat | gpannwitz: - check your httpd.confg to enable follow symlinks :??? | 15:51 |
| regeya | Ichat: I thought irssi was an irc client--what do other people use, a dead badger? | 15:51 |
| pksadiq | \me "learning something" | 15:51 |
| Ichat | pksadiq: - what? | 15:51 |
| regeya | that would be a forward slash, pksadiq | 15:52 |
| * pksadiq "learning" | 15:52 | |
| * regeya refers to himself in the 3rd person | 15:52 | |
| jenda | dpac_: true | 15:52 |
| jmknsd | Is there any way to get around flash crashing on 64 bit ubuntu? Or do Ineed to switch operating systems to watch flash video? | 15:52 |
| regeya | catalan! | 15:52 |
| * Ichat thinks its stupid to use the /me command to often :P | 15:52 | |
| yrth | lol | 15:53 |
| * regeya notes there is a difference between "to" and "too" | 15:53 | |
| dpac_ | gpannwitz: Do what Ichat suggested | 15:53 |
| * Pici reminds folks that offtopic chat belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic | 15:53 | |
| * regeya nods, and quiets down | 15:53 | |
| yrth | ok... big moment | 15:53 |
| yrth | nope | 15:54 |
| yrth | still same crap | 15:54 |
| jenda | dpac_: on the other hand, I would prefer this system to stay LTS | 15:55 |
| Ichat | yrth - i hate your pc now - you do understand that dont you | 15:55 |
| yrth | ok... coz_ can you tell me what you wanted me to replace quiet splash with? | 15:55 |
| regeya | say, I've never learned much about my client; what have I got set wrong that I'm getting a notice every time the FloodBot1 asks someone a question? | 15:55 |
| yrth | lol, I've hated it since the day 1... nothing but problems with this shit.... ichat, I thought ubuntu would resolve all that | 15:55 |
| regeya | it's hard to help people if I keep seeing questions about how many letters there are in 'compile' or the first digit in 456 | 15:56 |
| dpac_ | jenda: Well, then you could replace the files with a recent backup. That would replace majority of the files if the backup was recent | 15:56 |
| dpac_ | jenda: don't tell me you don't backup. | 15:56 |
| Brandon__ | can someone tell me how I mount a .img file to my usb flash drive? | 15:57 |
| Ichat | regeya did you register with nickservice | 15:57 |
| regeya | yes. | 15:57 |

| pksadiq | K, yrth, i'll take care next time | 16:01 |

| yrth | it boots up!!! | 16:01 |
| wessel | hello, I'm wondering if its possible to start the Graphviz GUI, I installed Graphviz with sudo apt-get install graphviz, but I don't really know what it installed. | 16:01 |
| yrth | ichat, is it really fake? | 16:02 |
| yrth | lol | 16:02 |
| Ichat | yrth - if you do want raid used mdadm to setup raid for you | 16:02 |
| wessel | When you install it on windows, you get a shortcut on your desktop to start the GUI. | 16:02 |
| yrth | pksadiq!!! you did help!!! | 16:02 |
| yrth | all of you did :) | 16:02 |
| yrth | bouncing ideas is great :) | 16:02 |
| yrth | I just love this chat hehehehe | 16:02 |
| pksadiq | k, my pleasure | 16:02 |
| yrth | ichat, I don't know a lot about raid, why would I want that? | 16:03 |
| wessel | I think you start the GUI with dotty -V, but the entire menu is missing :-/ | 16:04 |
| julian__ | ok i finally got through this security check | 16:04 |
| === Calinou_ is now known as Calinou | ||

| dpac_ | wessel: Did you check in the menus? | 16:05 |
| Ichat | you should installed it from the ubuntu installer so not from the bios. | 16:05 |
| yrth | guys, what do you suggest to use for the cube effect etc? | 16:05 |
| yrth | ok ichat, I think I'll skip it.... don't really need it | 16:06 |
| === ZNC_DoubleString is now known as DoubleString | ||
| wessel | dpac_, no I don't know how :-/ | 16:06 |
| wessel | right click brings up a menu | 16:06 |
| Ichat | yrth atm nothing, you should first fix your driver problems to be able to remove the nomodset stuff again | 16:06 |
| dpac_ | wessel: Do you see 'Applications' on the top left of the screen? | 16:06 |
| yrth | I think it's fixed now, ichat | 16:06 |
| Ichat | problem is, what drivers need fixing :P | 16:07 |
| wessel | no | 16:07 |
| DoubleString | hey all | 16:07 |
| yrth | I've downloaded and installed new drivers.... rebooted and it works fine | 16:07 |

| coz_ | yrth, well did you also install compizconfig-settings-manager? | 16:07 |
| dpac_ | Ichat: I've been using my box with nomodeset fix since it released. I don't think that has any sort of issues. | 16:07 |
| yrth | coz_ not yet | 16:08 |
| Haseman | Has any one here had any trouble with a bonded interface? for some reason mine doesn't arp resolve? | 16:08 |
| Ichat | yrth not really - you just told the kernel to load a bunch of safe drivers.. and it works but if you wnat more features / performanse it would help to be able to run in normal mode again with the right drivers. | 16:08 |
| yrth | so compiz not berel or whatever it was called | 16:08 |
| Ichat | dpac_ for realllly | 16:08 |
| wessel | http://yfrog.com/epselection029j | 16:08 |
| yrth | oh ichat... so where can I get that driver? | 16:08 |
| coz_ | yrth, ok you need to sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager to get into the big settings and that is opened with ccsm in terminal or system/preferences/ compizconfig settings manager | 16:08 |
| wessel | dpac_, http://yfrog.com/epselection029j this is what I see | 16:08 |
| dpac_ | Ichat: Since Lucid released* | 16:09 |

| yrth | for my nvidia | 16:10 |
| slow-motion | hi | 16:10 |
| coz_ | yrth, so the boot issue is solved now ...yes?? | 16:10 |
| dpac_ | wessel: well, my graphic chipset is old. Even ATI has stopped its support, so I don't complain. I can still play DoTA on Wine. So that works for me :) | 16:11 |
| yrth | coz_ yes, it's great!!! thanks a lot! | 16:11 |
| coz_ | yrth, cool now install compizconif-settings-manager | 16:11 |
| dpac_ | wessel: Don't you see a menu on very top left of the screen | 16:11 |
| wessel | dpac_, why are grafics drivers a problem | 16:11 |
| yrth | coz_ just did | 16:11 |
| wessel | no I don't | 16:11 |
| coz_ | yrth, ok you can meet me in #compiz if you like ...less traffic | 16:11 |
| yrth | coz_ but ichat said to find better drivers for my graphics card | 16:11 |

| wessel | oh, yes, here I see this! | 16:12 |
| coz_ | yrth, hit alt+F2 type in nvidia-settings | 16:12 |
| coz_ | yrth, the driver version should be listed when that opens | 16:12 |
| dpac_ | yrth: you did modify your /etc/default/grub file to include nomodeset? | 16:12 |
| yrth | coz_ too fast... it didn't reboot after the updates :( | 16:12 |
| coz_ | yrth, oooo | 16:13 |

| yrth | wait.... it booted up again | 16:14 |
| yrth | this is so weird | 16:14 |
| yrth | seems ok now | 16:14 |
| yrth | once it tells me it's tired of waiting for boot, and now it's ok | 16:14 |
| dpac_ | yrth: http://goo.gl/at07 Do modify your /etc/default/grub so that a kernel update doesn't remove your nomodeset fix. | 16:15 |
| dpac_ | wessel: The screenshot you showed me does show a GUI. What's wrong? | 16:15 |
| wessel | it has no menu's | 16:15 |
| wessel | it should have a menu | 16:15 |
| wessel | right click, add attribute does not work | 16:16 |

| yrth | coz_ the diver is NVIDIAdriver Version 195.36.24 | 16:17 |
| yrth | coz_ is this what you wanted me to give you? | 16:17 |
| coz_ | yrth, ok that is not a bad driver to use actually there are newer ones but that one is real decent | 16:17 |
| dpac_ | wessel: Well, I can't help you with application specific problem. I have never used graphviz. You should try its support forums. | 16:17 |
| Putr | Hey what's the keyboard shortcut for the different works spaces? | 16:17 |
| yrth | ok.... coz_ let me just go through what dpac_ said and I will meet you in compiz | 16:18 |

| needhelp1 | quick question, how can i tell if my pc is compatible with 64 bit version, or if i should be using the 32 bit version | 16:23 |
| Tweaky | hi. i used computer janitor and after reboot i have no window borders at all. any ideas? | 16:23 |
| yrth | dpac_ I've done it.... but not the rest the users have below, is that ok? | 16:23 |
| Putr | histo: thanks! | 16:23 |
| histo | needhelp1: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep size | 16:24 |
| histo | needhelp1: look if the clflush size is 64 | 16:24 |
| dpac_ | yrth: Users have below? I am not sure if I understood you | 16:25 |
| needhelp1 | clflush 64 | 16:25 |
| yrth | dpac_ the link you sent me has got some posts regarding modifying some files.... | 16:25 |
| Tweaky | hi. i used computer janitor and after reboot i have no window borders at all. any ideas? i cant alt-tab ti change windows, no resize or close buttons, no border at all. what did it uninstall /cry | 16:26 |
| yrth | ok, I rebooted and it worked fine :) | 16:26 |
| yrth | at least now I know what to do if it plays up again! | 16:26 |
| yrth | thanks guys :) all of you :) | 16:26 |
| dpac_ | yrth: It says you should modify /etc/default/grub. Thats because when your computer does critical upgrade, your nomodeset fix will be lost. You'll have to do it all over again. If you put it in /etc/default/grub, your settings will be retained. So thats the main point. But now you know if it stops working again. | 16:27 |
| yrth | thanks will try doing that now :) | 16:29 |
| dk12548 | how can i uninstall a program i dont need | 16:29 |
| estragib | Tweaky, you could have a look into /var/log/apt/history.log or /var/log/dpkg.log. maybe computer janitor logged what it removed. | 16:30 |
| area51pilot | Tweaky: are u using COMPIZ? | 16:30 |
| area51pilot | welcome duffy | 16:30 |
| Tweaky | area51pilot: yes | 16:30 |
| Tweaky | estragib: thanks ill check | 16:30 |
| dk12548 | please tell me how to uninstall a program | 16:31 |
| histo | dk12548: you can use the terminal and sudo apt-get remove <packagename> or you can use System > administration > package manager | 16:31 |
| area51pilot | Tweaky: sounds like u enabled a feature or add-on in COMPIZ that caused the issue .. I have noticed that a lot and have had to back track and edit my Compiz settings backwards | 16:31 |
| vladio | hi | 16:32 |
| area51pilot | Tweaky: try to remember what u changed last and start reverting back to its original setting | 16:32 |
| vladio | xiaclo are you here | 16:32 |
| Tweaky | area51pilot: hm ok ill go disable compiz and see what happens. ill have to leave irc however since i cant shrink this window. only thing i did was use computer janitor >< | 16:33 |
| dk12548 | oh thanks histo but i figured it out. actually i am on kde | 16:33 |

| Kritoslap | Why?:) | 16:39 |
| dk12548 | he when i used uname -m it says i686 what that mean? | 16:39 |
| egsome | Kritoslap, What problem you have when try to shutdown ? what happen ? | 16:39 |
| Dr_Willis | eja: disable the gdm service, or use the 'text' boot time option - if you dont want X or gdm to start at all. | 16:39 |
| hsr | Hello | 16:39 |

| Kritoslap | egsome, Those bubbles, circles, get stuck, 3 of them turn into orange and the other two just stay white. It get's stuck there | 16:40 |
| Kritoslap | egsome, Using gnome power manager. | 16:40 |

| Dr_Willis | eja: /etc/default/grub | 16:41 |
| hsr | Dr_Willis: where is that feature available? | 16:41 |

| egsome | Kritoslap, try `sudo shutdown 0` | 16:46 |
| muzer | xiaclo, I managed to sort it out, oddly enough by doing something I had attempted in the past... I changed the metamodes line in xorg.conf to add modes for only one monitor at all the common resolutions | 16:46 |
| muzer | I'll try flash now, actually, that was the main thing that didn't work | 16:47 |
| craunch | any idea? | 16:47 |
| dk12548 | looks like something worked for kristoslap lol | 16:47 |
| muzer | xiaclo, no, flash still doesn't work :/. I'm willing to blame Adobe for that one, though :P | 16:48 |

| === Putr is now known as Putr|Away | ||
| Kritoslap | egsome, It does shutdown but not completely | 16:49 |
| egsome | Kritoslap, try `sudo shutdown -h 0` | 16:50 |
| Kritoslap | egsome, No matter what I try, I still get stuck at ubuntu screen. | 16:51 |
| Kritoslap | egsome, Shutting down from the terminal works but not completely. | 16:51 |
| egsome | Kritoslap, `sudo shutdown -h 0` should shutdown and halt, it works for me, without the `-h` it get hang on my computer also | 16:51 |
| egsome | Kritoslap, But the shutdown button on the right upper part of screen works for me with no problems | 16:52 |
| Kritoslap | egsome, I'll try | 16:52 |
| dk12548 | can anyone tell me how to increase DPI of my screen | 16:53 |
| dk12548 | fonts are too small | 16:53 |
| craunch | any help? | 16:53 |
| nibbier | dk12548, you cannot do that, the dpi of your screen is a fixed value and a characteristic of your screen itself | 16:53 |
| ssd532 | and dpi will not change the font size | 16:54 |
| dk12548 | nibbier i was able to that when i was in windows | 16:54 |
| dk12548 | no its not the property of screen | 16:54 |
| egsome | dk12548, `System >> Preferences >> Appearance >> Fonts >> Details` | 16:54 |
| area51pilot | Tweaky: glad to hear you are back in business with the Compiz | 16:54 |
| dk12548 | egsome i am on kde | 16:54 |
| nibbier | dk12548, ah okay, you can change the DPI which ubuntu assumes for your screen.... but not the actual DPI of your screen ;-) sorry for misunderstanding in the first place | 16:55 |
| Tweaky | area51pilot: thank you | 16:55 |

| yaaar | hey guys. i'm setting up a new server, and recently came across a "shortcut" to getting the typical LAMP packages: 'apt-get -s install lamp-server^' ...that certainly selects a lot of stuff, and it all looks fine to me...but now I'm wondering: how does it work? Reading the man page the only reference to the carat is in using regex to match package names...but lots of the packages selected by... | 17:00 |
| yaaar | ...this command don't seem to match. can anybody enlighten me as to what's up here? | 17:00 |

| KevinTEN | hello all! i'd like to try the beta of 10.10 but I downloaded some maverick-desktop-i386.iso | 17:03 |
| KevinTEN | is this the correct versioN? | 17:03 |
| KevinTEN | or i should get ubuntu-10.10-beta-desktop-i386.iso | 17:03 |
| yaaar | Lupus-SLE: it doesn't appear to be a meta package. at least, aptitude doesn't recognize it, so it looks like some magic in apt-get; also it doesn't appear to just be a regex match...because lots of the packages that it selects don't match it | 17:03 |
| marko-_- | so i just installed ubuntu 10.04 and the first thing i don't like is rhythmbox when in tray, can't i set it up so that i only have to click on it's icon to pop it up? | 17:03 |

| === Aaron53672 is now known as Aaron5367|detach | ||
| duffydack | marko-_-, thats configurable in the plugin options. | 17:04 |
| Lupus-SLE | yaaar, In that case, might be easier for you to remove it, auto-remove packages and install just what you need. Apache, PHP and MySQL aren't too difficult to get your head around. | 17:04 |

| marko-_- | duffydack, any help? | 17:08 |
| KevinTEN | just processor support? | 17:08 |
| Tweaky | kevinten: oh | 17:08 |
| xiaclo | phuzion easiest way is 'sudo ifconfig -a' ... it will list all valid interface, even if they are down | 17:08 |
| headkase314 | KevinTEN, amd64 is 64-bit and i386 is 32-bit | 17:08 |
| Tweaky | kevinten: one is 32 bit one is 64 bit | 17:08 |
| Dr_Willis | KevinTEN: one is 32bit | 17:08 |
| KevinTEN | i have this maverick-desktop-i386.iso but i don't know where i got it from | 17:08 |
| duffydack | marko-_-, yeah, I see its not changeable.. hmmm. you can pop up the program but its not just a simple single click im afraid. There are other players to try. Banshee, Clementine, Amarok, Exaile, or a winamp style "Audacious" | 17:08 |
| Pici | KevinTEN : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Maverick/10.10 support/discussion. | 17:08 |
| KevinTEN | ohhhhh ok | 17:08 |
| Lupus-SLE | yaaar, That wields me an error... not entirely sure. Sorry. | 17:08 |
| marko-_- | duffydack, thanks | 17:08 |
| KevinTEN | and then there is an alternate install | 17:08 |
| KevinTEN | for desktop | 17:08 |
| estragib | yaaar: it's a special feature of apt-get. the caret is to tell apt-get it's a magic task. try cat /usr/share/tasksel/ubuntu-tasks.desc | grep Task | 17:09 |
| marko-_- | great no channel for rhythmbox on freenode | 17:09 |
| estragib | yaaar: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel | 17:09 |

| Friar | When I boot up my computer I get a bunch of error messages that scroll across the screen really fast. Is there a way I can see what they are? | 17:09 |

| KevinTEN | dmesg | 17:09 |
| Friar | KevinTEN, was that directed towards me? | 17:11 |
| Tweaky | kevinten: you need the 32bit or 64bit? | 17:11 |
| yaaar | estragib: thanks! now it makes sense...i particularly like this line in the doc you linked: "And yes, you forgot the caret (^), and yes, it is magical." | 17:11 |

| KevinTEN | when i hit tab | 17:13 |
| yrth | dr_willis, how I can add it back? | 17:13 |
| KevinTEN | :) | 17:13 |
| estragib | yaaar: i think it's ubuntu specific, and they seem to make their extensions to apt-get because aptitude is more debian's thing(?) | 17:13 |
| Dr_Willis | yrth: right click on a panel, add to panel | 17:13 |
| Dr_Willis | yrth: or reset the panels | 17:13 |
| Dr_Willis | !resetpanel | yrth | 17:13 |
| ubottu | yrth: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 17:13 |

| Lupus-SLE | Dear #ubuntu, I've got a problem with my system clock - it seems to be drifting out by several minutes. Having had my PC on for a few hours it's drifted backwards by 5 minutes. I keep using ntpdate to fix the clock but I don't know what's causing the drift. | 17:15 |
| marko-_- | can anyone tell me why i get a "tululu" sound every few minutes on 10.04? I don't know which program is making it | 17:15 |
| yrth | thanks dr_willis! too many "&" in that line though lol | 17:15 |
| popping-kam | hello all i have a little probleme i want the plugin for screen saver flying windows | 17:15 |
| popping-kam | how have that | 17:15 |
| xiaclo | Lupus-SLE it drifts while it is on? | 17:16 |
| estragib | marko-_-: did you check ps -e|grep tululu? | 17:16 |
| riz__ | Any1 has Ubuntu Studio? | 17:16 |
| Lupus-SLE | xiaclo, I believe that's the only time it drifts. | 17:16 |
| marko-_- | estragib, that was funny | 17:16 |
| yaaar | Lupus-SLE: that's almost certainly a hardware problem. But using ntpd instead of ntpdate will probably improve your situation | 17:16 |
| estragib | marko-_-: scnr | 17:16 |
| Dr_Willis | yrth: err.. no && is exactly what is supposed to be there... | 17:17 |
| c3l | does ubuntu read from xinitrc? | 17:17 |
| Tweaky | Lupus-SLE: maybe try replacing the lithium battery for your clock would be a start | 17:17 |
| yrth | dr_willis, oh, I did it with only one as 2 returned a syntax error | 17:18 |
| linuxBoy2 | gostaria de passar para vcs esse link: http://blog.corujadeti.com.br/ está sendo sorteado livros linux para certificaçao LPI Linux... os livros sao ATUALIZADOS, faz 70 dias que foi lançado no Brasil... participem... há outros livros tbm... | 17:18 |
| npope | ls | 17:18 |
| estragib | marko-_-: but seriously, if it's reproducible, i'd try opening pulseaudio volume control. there's a tab in there in which programs that output sound appear. | 17:18 |
| yrth | dr_willis, oh 2 of them with no space - that works, but it did the same... one worked just as well | 17:18 |
| estragib | marko-_-: wait for the sound and see which app appears in the list | 17:19 |
| Lupus-SLE | Tweaky, Might try that, what's confusing me is the drift doesn't appear constant... it seems to drift by different amounts in different directions. | 17:19 |
| Tweaky | Lupus-SLE: maybe your pc has a built in time traveling device o.o | 17:20 |
| xiaclo | Lupus-SLE that's the reason i'm confused ... drifting while it is off would be a faulty or dying battery ... but while it's on, it doesn't reference the hardware clock, so it can't be that ... | 17:20 |
| Dr_Willis | yrth: time to check some bash docs.. & and && have radically differnt meanings | 17:20 |
| Dr_Willis | yrth: you may of did some other typy wrong if && dident work | 17:20 |
| xiaclo | yrth & runs the first command in the background, && waits for the first to finish, and if it works, then runs the second ... | 17:21 |
| marko-_- | estragib, thanks, it's emesene | 17:21 |
| yrth | thanks guys :) | 17:21 |
| estragib | marko-_-: glad to help | 17:21 |
| Tweaky | Lupus-SLE: you dont use internet time sync? | 17:21 |
| yrth | dr_willis, I did && with a space in between... | 17:21 |
| xiaclo | yrth so assuming the first is successful, they do the same thing, with & running faster, but sometimes you dont want to second to run without the first working | 17:21 |
| Lupus-SLE | xiaclo, It could be drifting whilst off... I haven't noticed the time being wrong when first turning it on and I don't notice it being wrong in Windows but that could easily be ignorance on my part. | 17:22 |
| yrth | xiaclo, thanks... I redid the command with && just to be on the safe side lol | 17:22 |
| Lupus-SLE | Tweaky, I use ntpdate to update the clock... which I've had to do more regulary recently | 17:22 |
| yaaar | Lupus-SLE: ntpd stays resident and not only keeps updating the clock like ntpdate, but also monitors how much it drifts and then adapts the clock to compensate. I recommend checking it out...it's super easy to set up | 17:23 |
| phuzion | Interesting, I've got eth2, but no eth1 or eth0. How can I reassign it to eth0? /etc/network/interfaces says eth0, no references to eth2 | 17:23 |
| xiaclo | Lupus-SLE install adjtimex ... it reads off the linux system clock for about 70sec on my system, then adjusts the internal clock rate ... won't fix hardware issues, but if its only drifting in linux, and not while off, that should fix it | 17:23 |
| serhio | Hi everyone. I have trouble with level charge on my notebook Lenovo G460. Who can help me? | 17:24 |
| === qwerty is now known as Guest20350 | ||
| Lupus-SLE | Alright... I'll give it a bit more testing to make sure it's not drifting whilst off and follow the appropriate suggestion to fix it... I hope it's not the hardware, it's only 9 months old! Thank you fellow people. | 17:24 |
| xiaclo | Lupus-SLE by hardware I mean you have to replace the battery on the motherboard, nothing major =) | 17:25 |
| Lupus-SLE | xiaclo, I know but it's still a bit of a pain. | 17:25 |

| hporse | hi. i've got a problem with nautilus. i want to change the program that opens jpg files when i doubleclick an image in nautilus. i tried Right Click --> Open With --> Other Application --> Remember this application for "JPEG" files. But nautilus won't remember the application. Why is that so? | 17:32 |
| logitech | ubuntuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu | 17:34 |
| hporse | it always opens files with Eye of Gnome whereas i want them to be opened with geeqie. for some reason nautilus refuses to remember geeqie as jpeg file opener. is that a known problem? | 17:34 |
| estragib | hporse: you'll have to open properties for that file. there's an open with tab. there you can set the default for that file type. | 17:34 |

| pksadiq | K | 17:43 |
| xiaclo | ray9na that is exactly what it sounds like ... usually when you install a package, it pulls it a few others to be able to run, but when you delete it, it doesn't remove the others ... so that is just informing you that you have these libraries that can be safely removed since nothing else is using them anymore | 17:44 |

| srini | what is MBR, Grub and Initramfs... How it is loading? | 17:57 |
| glebihan | Anvoid, ok, hold on I'm writing a little script which will allow you to do that | 17:57 |
| magnetron | DIFTOW: which version of Ubuntu are you using? | 17:57 |
| DIFTOW | 10.4 the latest stable build. Not beta | 17:57 |
| xiaclo | srini MAGIC ... your BIOS searches for the MBR at the beginning of your hard drive, and passes to it (a very small program) it then loads grub from your hard drive, grub then loads initramfs which is a very small version of linux, which loads the rest of your linux system | 17:58 |
| Anvoid | glebihan: perfect! thanks. does this skip do all 3 step in a single right-click menu? | 18:00 |
| glebihan | Anvoid, it does not create the folder | 18:00 |
| glebihan | Anvoid, it renames it with the date as prefix | 18:01 |
| donkeyyy | How do I check my chipset of my wireless usb??? | 18:01 |
| Anvoid | alright | 18:01 |
| glebihan | Anvoid, is it ok ? | 18:01 |
| srini | xiaclo: is there be first stage and second stage in GRUB while booting? | 18:02 |
| Anvoid | glebihan: creating folder could be a step faster but prefix alone is dandy as well | 18:02 |
| Arpad2 | my mic doesnt work from the fron plug, how to fix it? | 18:02 |
| glebihan | Anvoid, well creating the folder would be a little more complicated as it would require something to input the folder name | 18:03 |
| xiaclo | srini yes, although grub technically uses stage 1, 1.5 and 2 ... stage 1 is in the MBR, stage 1.5 is loading the drivers to read the hard drive, and stage 2 is what you actually see, the grub program displaying your boot choices | 18:03 |
| glebihan | Anvoid, so if this works for you this way, I can send you the script right now | 18:03 |

| xiaclo | srini initramfs (or initrd) is a small linux kernel that loads into RAM and loads everything else .... it's main job is making the root filesystem accessible ... on some systems, that's easy, on others it needs raid drivers, or worse, with strange filesystems as well. Once it has that loaded, it passes off to the real kernel, and that takes over and loads the rest of the system | 18:28 |

| vladio | DIFTOW what is the problem? | 18:30 |
| Dr_Willis | DIFTOW: ubuntu install should have not hing to do with a windows 7 cd booting or not. But good luck. Im out of here. | 18:30 |
| srini | xiaclo: then when the root f.s will be mount as rw while booting | 18:30 |
| Dr_Willis | DIFTOW: if you want help getting windows back on - see #windows if you want help getting ubuntu working, then ask in here for help on that. | 18:30 |
| DIFTOW | When I tried to run Ubuntu, about 15 times.. all it does is load a wallpaper, with my mouse.. keyboard is unresponsive.. like shut down.. it doesnt load anything further..ever | 18:30 |
| xiaclo | kshatriya you have a linux command-line? | 18:31 |
| valkyren | hey ChogyDan so where do i find that option to enable? | 18:31 |
| vladio | DIFTOW are you on a live cd now? | 18:31 |
| xiaclo | kshatriya run 'sudo Xorg -configure' ... that should generate an xorg.conf in /etc/X11/ | 18:31 |
| ChogyDan | valkyren: I dunno, I assume it is in one of the settings managers | 18:31 |
| DIFTOW | I'm on a 2nd computer in the house, because Ubuntu screwed up my Bootmng file that Windows 7 had in place. | 18:31 |
| kshatriya | @xialco....ok give me a sec to run it and come back.... | 18:31 |
| DIFTOW | So Ubuntu can't run, cant install.. and in the process removes my ability to run my previously installed Windows.. so im left with a computer that runs nothing but BIOS | 18:32 |
| vladio | DIFT0W that is ok every OS overwrites the bootmng. What was your installation media? | 18:32 |
| xiaclo | srini the root filesystem initially will be mounted read-only, and during the boot process will be mounted read-write, after it has done checks to the filesystem journal to make sure it is intact ... because if it needs to check the filesystem, and it's read-write, it could damage it more | 18:32 |

| vladio | Diftow? | 18:33 |
| DIFTOW | What do you mean media? | 18:33 |
| vladio | cd, dvd, flash drive | 18:33 |
| DIFTOW | CD | 18:33 |
| valkyren | I have followed every sintax and I just can find the compiz fusion package | 18:34 |
| srini | xiaclo: so the root partition will be mounted read-write using fstab file is it? | 18:34 |
| DIFTOW | my memory is fine, and the disc is fine | 18:34 |
| ChogyDan | valkyren: it is installed by default | 18:34 |
| DIFTOW | I checked both | 18:34 |
| xiaclo | kshatriya yeah, you can't do that while X is running ... write this down .... ctrl-alt-F1 should bring you to a terminal, log into that. then you want to 'sudo pkill gdm' which will kill your graphical environment ... then you can run 'sudo Xorg -configure' ... and 'startx' will bring everything back up | 18:34 |
| ChogyDan | valkyren: it is called "compiz" | 18:34 |
| valkyren | it is estupid i can't get it and install it | 18:34 |
| === mk is now known as Guest60724 | ||
| xiaclo | srini yes, but the root filesystem is also contained in the grub.conf to mount read-only, when it remounts it, it will use the options from the fstab | 18:35 |

| ssd532 | I think it is not possible with pop | 18:39 |

| besogon | DIFTOW: Do you use ubuntu 10.04.1 or still 10.04 verision? Also you can try alternative installer. (It almost the same even not say better as not require graphical support in time of installation. | 18:39 |

| egsome | whosjose, depends, it may be a `make` or some `shell` code that do the installation | 18:41 |
| xiaclo | srini because grub just sees hard drives, it's getting information from the bios ... linux sees them as SCSI (sd) or IDE (hd) drives because it understands what controllers they are attached to | 18:41 |

| xiaclo | howlatnight i haven't looked into hybrid graphics for about a year, but last i checked, it was limited by a windows driver. Assuming nothing has changed, the best you can do is detect the hardware that is enabled on boot and have two different xorg configs.

| |howlatnight| | <xiaclo>I'm really just looking to disable the nvidia card on my laptop. I've followed http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1366605 this thread and i have the module to disable installed but I still see my nvidia card in the output from lspci (in case that didn't send before i was disconnected) | 19:04 |
| xiaclo | howlatnight honestly, it looks as if there is a software disable for these models, which will not remove the card from the system, but simply power it down, the system still needs minimal access to the card to be able to power it back up. Look into powertop, it will show you power usage, and gives tips on extending battery life too. | 19:04 |
| egsome | brandon420, Yeah, Just connect them to two different LAN Cards on your pc, and you need some routing software to get them working | 19:04 |
| ssd532 | brandon420, if you want to get combined b/w of both the connetions, it is not possible | 19:05 |
| egsome | brandon420, there's commercial software called `mikrotik` does that | 19:05 |
| xiaclo | howlatnight it did, guess you didn't get my previous message ... check power usage with powertop, a system without a dedicated video card will show noticeably less power usage | 19:05 |
| Boreum | Hi everyone, I recently tried installing Ubuntu Netbook Edition on my IBM Thinkpad R40 using unetbootin and now it seems I have no OS on it whatsoever. I can not get Ubuntu to boot from USB or CDROM. Yes I have edited the BIOS and am sure the CDROM and USB are both Bootable. When I try to start the laptop the IBM screen comes up with the option to hit the blue "Access IBM" button and then it goes black and there is just a blinking cursor at the top lef | 19:05 |
| Boreum | the screen. | 19:05 |
| egsome | brandon420, But that would be load-balancing only, not complete combining | 19:05 |

| psychobudgie-2 | Tweaky, sat in the kernel log | 19:05 |
| |howlatnight| | xiaclo, well the posters say that power usage should fall from ~12 watts to ~8 but i cant drop below 11 even with the module installed | 19:06 |
| renardo | hello, i need an advice : i fail to obtain sound over HDMI. the sound card is corectly seen and selected under "hardware" i already tried simple solutions found online, like editing .asoundrc, launcing alsamixer (there is no IEC958 channel though). I even tried to upgrade to the last certified nvidia driver but it gives error and falls back to default res. What would you do ? | 19:06 |

| Tweaky | psychobudgie-2: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=797789 | 19:07 |
| IdleOne | whosjose: but if you insist on compiling it you will need to sudo apt-get install build-essential then try the ./configure | 19:07 |
| whosjose | ok | 19:08 |
| whosjose | thanks | 19:08 |
| xiaclo | howlatnight and no issues loading the module | 19:08 |
| Pici | whosjose, IdleOne: I don't believe that the downloaded version of Eclipse requires you to compile it. | 19:08 |
| whosjose | yes it does | 19:08 |
| whosjose | at least 3.6 | 19:08 |
| Pici | whosjose: Its been a while since I tried to install it. | 19:08 |
| howlatnight | xiaclo, no its present in lsmod | 19:08 |
| IdleOne | Pici: I don't if it does or not I was just telling him what he needs to ./configure :) | 19:08 |
| whosjose | i have it | 19:08 |
| egsome | whosjose, I think you downloaded the source | 19:08 |
| howlatnight | xiaclo, so far as i can tell its installed, but I don't notice a change in power consumption | 19:09 |
| psychobudgie-2 | Tweaky, think I may have tried that yesterday, but I'll give it another shot | 19:09 |
| whosjose | build-essentials is already installed | 19:09 |
| IdleOne | whosjose: what is the exact error you are getting? | 19:09 |
| whosjose | bash: ./configure: No such file or directory | 19:10 |

| brandon420 | ssd532, egsome but could i not run torrents on one, and browse on the other? thus allowing me to browse and torrent at full speed. | 19:10 |
| whosjose | and eclipse is the extracted files | 19:10 |
| donkeyyy | wow ubuntu is soo fast even on a USB stick | 19:11 |
| egsome | donkeyyy, Sure | 19:11 |
| Tweaky | Psychobudgie-2 : gl | 19:11 |
| egsome | brandon420, Yeah, All that can be done by the right configuration of the routing software like MikroTik | 19:11 |
| Boreum | Dern, guess no one has any ideas? | 19:11 |
| brandon420 | ssd532, egsome and what about a internet spilter, would that not combine the two connections, seeing as they are both using the same external ip's? | 19:11 |
| howlatnight | xiaclo, let me try a reboot after disabling the module and checking power use | 19:12 |
| donkeyyy | egsome how is it soo much faster than windows | 19:12 |
| brandon420 | Boreum, what was your question? i was afk | 19:12 |
| Boreum | I recently tried installing Ubuntu Netbook Edition on my IBM Thinkpad R40 using unetbootin and now it seems I have no OS on it whatsoever. I can not get Ubuntu to boot from USB or CDROM. Yes I have edited the BIOS and am sure the CDROM and USB are both Bootable. When I try to start the laptop the IBM screen comes up with the option to hit the blue "Access IBM" button and then it goes black and there is just a blinking cursor at the top left of the scre | 19:12 |
| donkeyyy | the internet loads in less than a few seconds | 19:12 |
| xiaclo | howlatnight try this ... seems to have more hybrid scripts than your specific model | 19:13 |
| Samplezt | p | 19:13 |
| egsome | donkeyyy, too much | 19:13 |
| brandon420 | Boreum, maybe try to reinstall ubuntu netbook, from a cd? i havent ever been able to get unetbookin to work right. | 19:13 |
| ssd532 | brandon420, it would be very useful. but if it is possible I do not have idea how can it be done. | 19:13 |
| donkeyyy | egsome what do you mean | 19:13 |
| donkeyyy | egsome... you mean too many reasons | 19:14 |
| === flydeadman1 is now known as FlyDeadMan | ||
| egsome | brandon420, I don't know about `real` Internet splitter, Just you can do load-balancing using some routing software | 19:14 |
| Boreum | Sadly can not boot from Live CD for some reason. I just get the same blinking cursor screen. | 19:14 |
| VCoolio | whosjose: is there a configure file (check with ls), else maybe an autogen.sh file, run that instead, and check the README | 19:14 |
| IdleOne | donkeyyy: it has to do with how the linux kernel uses the flux capacitor. complicated and very technical. Just be happy it is faster :) | 19:15 |
| brandon420 | egsome, well my problem is that i only have 1 ethrenet plug on my computer. | 19:15 |
| === Putr is now known as Putr|Away | ||
| donkeyyy | I am veru happy | 19:15 |
| egsome | donkeyyy, I mean too much faster, and the reasons are known, and it's really too many | 19:15 |
| egsome | brandon420, You should have two LAN Cards, and also two Routers, to get that working | 19:16 |
| egsome | brandon420, Every router should have special IP Range also | 19:16 |
| bt4 | mk | 19:16 |
| === luist_ is now known as luist | ||
| ssd532 | brandon420, the problem is not the number of ethernet port. the problem is combining the b/w. | 19:16 |
| egsome | brandon420, Then you get a computer connected to the twice, and setup routing software on it, and that can be Linux, with all required packages to do so. | 19:16 |
| whosjose | there is no autogen | 19:17 |
| egsome | brandon420, This might help: http://www.stanford.edu/~fenn/linux/ | 19:17 |
| whosjose | but there is a configuration fold | 19:18 |
| whosjose | there is no readme | 19:18 |
| xiaclo | brandon420 it CAN be done, but you have to be aware of the limitations ... you are using two separate connections, so anything that goes out one connection, has to reply though the same connection ... will this speed up browsing? probably not, torrents? hell yes ... why? because torrents don't use a single connection, they use many connections to many people ... if you set up your router correctly, it will load balance the connections over both ports | 19:18 |

| Fishscene | Wow, spam bots are on the move today. | 19:36 |
| hidensoft | please help me | 19:36 |
| Drone4four | that flood bot will be back soon | 19:36 |
| maco | JoshuaL: thats not really a rul #freenode, ya know | 19:36 |
| n0a1ias | xiaclo, im on the live cd now and i dont see the option for doing that, theres formant, select manually, and dule boot | 19:36 |
| dri245 | i like floodbot | 19:36 |
| egsome | !ask | hidensoft | 19:36 |
| ubottu | hidensoft: 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. :-) | 19:36 |
| maco | but yeah, how about just ig, k? | 19:36 |
| dri245 | he asks trivia questions whenever someone joins | 19:36 |
| maco | *inoring it | 19:36 |
| alkisg | How does ubiquity work? Does it copy /cdrom to /target, or does it copy / to target? (I've booted the 9.10 live cd but I want to mount 10.04.iso to /cdrom and run ubiquity from there...) | 19:36 |
| JoshuaL | maco, ah ok :) | 19:36 |
| hidensoft | egsome : i do that :| | 19:36 |
| Fishscene | Is anyone having trouble using the Ubuntu One Music Store? When I go to order, it says my card can't be processed at this time... I've been getting that message for over 24 hours. | 19:36 |

| hidensoft | did you see that ? -> hi every body , i trying to install LAMP with this command : sudo tasksel install lamp-server , i got " tasksel: aptitude failed (100) " Error , what is this ? how i can solve that ? | 19:37 |
| n0a1ias | and then just deleat the swap and make a new one? | 19:37 |
| dpac_ | hidensoft: sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ | 19:37 |
| egsome | hidensoft, No, Sorry :), I think the flood is the reason | 19:37 |
| Fishscene | dri245: Seems fine as I can order other products... I just ordered a 64GB flash drive from Newegg.. You'd think I could spend $25 on some songs :P | 19:37 |
| dpac_ | hidensoft: don't forget the caret | 19:37 |
| xiaclo | n0alias nope, there should be an option for 'use as' and set that to swap, and the main disk to / ... you dont have to format anything, just let the installer know where things are supposed to go | 19:38 |
| === sudokode is now known as sudokrocker | ||

| Fishscene | Has anyone ordered anything from the Ubuntu One Music store in the past 24 hours? | 19:39 |
| afeijo | magnetron: that is what I use for ages, but my colegue asked if we could have another way to do it | 19:39 |
| whosjose | ugh for some reason it doesn't work! | 19:39 |
| maco | hidensoft: taskel doesnt take any arguments | 19:39 |
| dpac_ | hidensoft: you're welcome. Caret means 'interpret it as task' | 19:39 |
| whosjose | Is there a .deb for eclipse 3.6? | 19:39 |

| maco | dpac_: noraln "sudo tasksel" and pck from the menu it gives, not putting "install foo" after it... | 19:40 |
| hidensoft | maco : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP | 19:40 |
| dpac_ | maco: both ways work. See manpage | 19:40 |
| n0a1ias | xiaclo, when i right click a partition i only see the options for delete, revert, and change | 19:41 |
| maco | dpac_: hm ok then. interesting to se eitke apt-get | 19:41 |
| maco | *see it being used like | 19:41 |
| * maco scowls at lag | 19:41 | |
| dpac_ | maco: There's something wrong with your keyboard? | 19:41 |
| howlatnight | xiaclo, turns out it was working. The boot process was running a dkms auto install for the module and re-enabling it. | 19:41 |
| maco | dpac_: no, im installing updates right now. the cpu isnt noticing me typing | 19:41 |
| magnetron | afeijo: hmm.. maybe help him install putty and set it to run crontab at boot? | 19:41 |
| xiaclo | n0alias what options does change give? | 19:41 |
| magnetron | afeijo: not boot, ssh login. | 19:42 |
| xiaclo | howlatnight glad you got it working =) | 19:42 |
| afeijo | good idea | 19:42 |
| maco | dpac_: *lots* of missed interrupts | 19:42 |
| afeijo | I will suggest it, he is not a n00b, he worked with unix 2 decades ago | 19:42 |
| n0a1ias | new partition size, use as, format, and mount point | 19:42 |
| dpac_ | maco: Ohh, ok :) I wonder if 'nice' could help you with that | 19:42 |
| UberStudenter | hello... i try different live cds and each time i have to download drivers and firmwares for my wireless.. is there a way to save a file on a usb and then just install it from there instead of the package manager | 19:42 |
| xiaclo | n0alias that is what you want 'use as' | 19:42 |
| whosjose | Is there a .deb for Eclipse 3.6? I can't run the ./configure on it | 19:43 |
| maco | dpac_: eh but i want the update to hurry up and finish ;-) | 19:43 |
| dpac_ | maco: Ohh alright. | 19:43 |
| maco | dpac_: also, youd think with 8 CPUs it co.. | 19:43 |
| xiaclo | n0alias for your swap, use as swap ... for your / partition, it will be use as ext3, or whatever you formatted it as, and mount point will be / | 19:43 |
| maco | *could thread | 19:43 |
| rww | maco: go make some tea :( | 19:43 |
| whosjose | Is there a .deb for Eclipse 3.6? I can't run the ./configure on it | 19:44 |
| dpac_ | rww: lol | 19:44 |
| Fishscene | UberStudenter: I'm not sure if this would fix your problem, but have you tried making a live-USB drive? | 19:44 |
| rww | !repeat | whosjose | 19:44 |
| ubottu | whosjose: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://ubuntu.stackexchange.com | 19:44 |
| amanita_ | My music players seemingly plays mp3, totem and xfmedia. My mixer is on full volume and I have no sound at all | 19:44 |
| n0a1ias | xiaclo, it still says no root file system defigned | 19:44 |
| dpac_ | maco: You really should take a 10 minute break :) | 19:44 |
| amanita_ | Ah wait, my cable is unplugged, nevermind. | 19:45 |
| xiaclo | n0alias did you set your main disk to 'mount point' / ?? | 19:45 |
| UberStudenter | Fishscene: how is that going to help me | 19:45 |
| n0a1ias | yes, "/home" | 19:45 |
| slyboots | Hm, Confused about something.. Imt rying to setup ufw firewall; But I think because I used Webmin to configure iptables that may be "overruling" ufw's configration | 19:45 |
| slyboots | what would be the best way to test/fix that | 19:46 |
| hidensoft | whosjose: did you looking in ubuntu software center ? | 19:46 |
| xiaclo | n0alias did you choose the 'use as' as well? set it to ext4? | 19:46 |
| Fishscene | UberStudenter: I'm not sure if it would work, but if you use a live-USB key, you can save data on it so you don't have to set everything up again the next time you boot. | 19:47 |
| hidensoft | whosjose: search eclipse in ubuntu software center then you find answer :) | 19:47 |
| xiaclo | whosjose what architecture? | 19:47 |
| whosjose | hidensoft: yes but it's 3.5 | 19:47 |
| whosjose | I need 3.6 | 19:47 |
| n0a1ias | xiaclo, yea ive tryed all that | 19:47 |
| rob_p | slyboots: Use one or the other, not both. Almost all utilities that manipulate iptables *need* to be the only one that does or you run into problems. | 19:48 |
| whosjose | there is a few software addons i need but the updates dont work in 3.5 only 3.6 | 19:48 |
| suprengr | What's the easiest way to type "abc" in a terminal & have it display contents of the text file "abc" and then wait at command prompt?prompt | 19:48 |
| hidensoft | whosjose: i have no idea | 19:48 |
| slyboots | Well, isnt ufw just a "frontent" for IpTables? | 19:48 |
| slyboots | *frontend | 19:48 |
| xiaclo | whosjose what architecture? amd64? i386? | 19:48 |
| maco | suprengr: uh you need to put "cat" before the filename | 19:48 |
| jrib | suprengr: what are you trying to accomplish? | 19:48 |
| UberStudenter | Fishscene: i think maybe i dint' explain .. i try different live cd/dvd distros and i have to donwload the same drivers/firmware for my wireless in each distro... | 19:48 |
| maco | slyboots: yes, but it stores its rules in /etc/ufw/*.rules | 19:48 |
| Fishscene | UberStudenter: ah ok. My misunderstanding. | 19:49 |
| slyboots | So.. how do I tell the system that ufw is the firewall configuration I want to use o.O | 19:49 |
| maco | slyboots: and webmin is storing its own somewhere. they're really just iptables-restore listings... | 19:49 |
| maco | slyboots: purge webmin? | 19:49 |
| whosjose | i386 | 19:49 |
| slyboots | Ehh.. I .. suppose I could remove webmin, but I would perfer to fix this | 19:49 |
| rob_p | slyboots: Sort of, but not exactly. It builds a firewall policy and it utilizes the iptables utility to do it. | 19:49 |
| xiaclo | whosjose then this will help, near the bottom, links of a ton of different installs depending on what you need ... https://launchpad.net/~eclipse-team/+archive/debian-package/+build/1865773 | 19:49 |
| maverick | Hi 4 all is there any one expirienced with ubuntu linux to help me ? | 19:50 |
| maco | slyboots: you'll have to delete the iptables-restore files webmin generated... and also, wy are you using webmin? it breaks ubuntu and debian systems... | 19:50 |
| dpac_ | !ask | maverick | 19:50 |
| ubottu | maverick: 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. :-) | 19:50 |
| rob_p | slyboots: Just don't make use of that particular webmin module. | 19:50 |
| slyboots | maco: it does? | 19:50 |
| maco | !webmin | 19:50 |
| ubottu | 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. | 19:50 |
| slyboots | I tried ebox, was *terrible* | 19:50 |
| maverick | i can't play FPS games on my linux | 19:50 |
| suprengr | jrib: I want to open terminal [from a menu item] and display the contents of a text file [a list of bsd utils] and wait at normalprompt. | 19:51 |
| slyboots | I think it wanted money of me | 19:51 |
| slyboots | lol | 19:51 |
| Ichat | lol - ebox terrible ??? its worse | 19:51 |
| dpac_ | maverick: Which game are you talking about? | 19:51 |
| * maco just edits whatever defaults arent good-nuff using vi | 19:51 | |
| rww | at least ebox isn't horribly incompatible with Debian-based systems | 19:51 |
| maverick | CS 1.6 | 19:51 |
| slyboots | Okay, I'll strip out webmin, but is that going to fix my issue? | 19:51 |
| dpac_ | maverick: Well its a windows game. Did you try it in Wine? | 19:51 |
| xiaclo | n0alias not sure to be honest, if you configured it correctly, it should install to that disk ... you can try copying the files out as root again, using cp -r ... | 19:51 |
| maco | slyboots: if the iptables-restore files it added are gone, then on a reboot they should no longer take effect | 19:51 |
| suprengr | jrib: I need to know the command to put in the menu item. | 19:51 |
| histo | maverick: you need to install steam via wine then you can play it | 19:51 |
| maverick | yes and insall, game start and just exit the game | 19:51 |
| maverick | install* | 19:52 |
| histo | maverick: let me get you directions | 19:52 |
| UberStudenter | in ubuntu or its variations the steps are the same.. "sudo apt-get update" and then "sudo apt-get install filename" but instead of me downloading the software everytime .. i was wondering if i could save on a media and re-use it | 19:52 |
| DIFTOW | Anyone here know if there is an emulator of sorts for the old SGI IRIX operating system? Specifically IRIX 4.1 or up? | 19:52 |
| maverick | tnx | 19:52 |
| maco | suprengr: "cat" is the command to display contents of the file | 19:52 |
| histo | maverick: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_under_Linux | 19:52 |
| slyboots | See the issue is.. Im actually SSHing remotly | 19:53 |
| slyboots | lol | 19:53 |
| dpac_ | !who | maverick | 19:53 |
| ubottu | maverick: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 19:53 |
| jrib | suprengr: check gnome-terminal's documentation | 19:53 |
| maco | UberStudenter: yes, you can "sudo dpkg -i filename" where the filename is something that ends in .deb and is in the same directory | 19:53 |
| DIFTOW | It requires a "MIPS" processor to run IRIX, so it would need to be run ona virtual machine | 19:53 |
| slyboots | Is there a way to test this without rebooting? | 19:53 |
| maco | UberStudenter: with apt-get you're actually giving the package name, not the filename | 19:53 |
| classical_ | Please please help me :-) what is incorrect here ? http://pastebin.com/WE6Hf0A3 here is error log http://pastebin.com/f04nrDHZ | 19:53 |
| maco | UberStudenter: the filename will be longer, like packagename-1ubuntu3_amd64.deb | 19:53 |
| suprengr | maco: cheers & thanks | 19:53 |
| UberStudenter | maco: yes you are right.. i meant the package name | 19:54 |
| maco | UberStudenter: you can also use AptOnCD to create a CD which you can add as a repository and use apt-get with | 19:54 |
| rob_p | slyboots: Manipulating the system firewall remotely is a little risky! | 19:54 |
| maco | slyboots: sure, sudo service iptables restart | 19:54 |
| === Sup|Away is now known as Sup|Lobby | ||
| UberStudenter | maco: but in a live environment how will i swap the cds | 19:54 |
| slyboots | rob_p: Yea.. hence not wanting to lock myself out lol | 19:54 |
| c3l | where is $PATH defined? its not in /etc/profile | 19:54 |
| maco | UberStudenter: boot with the "toram" option | 19:55 |
| maco | UberStudenter: then you can remove the live cd from which you booted | 19:55 |
| suprengr | jrib: iwas checking documentation but came up with wrong solution, but thanks anyway. | 19:55 |
| UberStudenter | how do you do that | 19:55 |
| slyboots | Didnt work anyway "iptables : unknown service" | 19:55 |
| maco | UberStudenter: alternatively, use a live-usb instead of live-cd | 19:55 |
| whosjose | ok now | 19:55 |
| whosjose | Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: eclipse-platform-data (>= 3.6.0-0ubuntu1~ppa0.1) | 19:55 |
| maco | UberStudenter: hit a key when it asks whether you want to install or run ubuntu, and there should be a way to set boot options. type in "toram" | 19:55 |
| trism | c3l: /etc/environoment (although possibly redefined other places) | 19:55 |
| rob_p | slyboots: I have done it before but I usually put a firewall purge script on the server and run it in a cron job. That way, if I lock myself out, I just wait for 10 minutes and the rules get purged and I'm back in! Just don't forget to remove the cron job afterwards! | 19:55 |
| trism | c3l: err /etc/environment | 19:56 |
| c3l | trism: oh, thanks! | 19:56 |
| slyboots | Well, right now the default rules are "accept all" | 19:56 |
| slyboots | Still dont get why I cant restart the service | 19:56 |
| gary_inNYC | how do i disable 2 finger activates right click? i enabled 2 finge rmultitouch vert/horiz scrolling, but i sometimes accidentally bring up context menu. | 19:56 |
| rob_p | slyboots: Just one iptables command can change that! | 19:56 |
| maco | slyboots: apparently there's no running iptables process. i just checked with ps | 19:56 |
| xiaclo | DIFTOW this should point you in the right direction, and some places to start looking, but i doubt i'll be easy to get it set up http://www.linux-mips.org/wiki/Emulators | 19:56 |
| UberStudenter | maco: ok when i boot from teh live cd i get a menu .. what exactly am i doing at this menu? | 19:57 |
| slyboots | ? | 19:57 |
| maco | UberStudenter: is this one of the older livecds that lists like 6 things you can do or the new one that has an actual graphical window? | 19:57 |
| xiaclo | maco there is never an iptables process, it's part of the kernel, it's not like a windows firewall that is a userspace program | 19:57 |
| suprengr | jrib: iwas checking documentation but came up with wrong solution, but thanks anyway. | 19:58 |
| jrib | suprengr: what solution is that? | 19:58 |
| c3l | trism: is that the file to edit if I want to add a folder to PATH or HOME, or should I use some file in my ~/, if so, what file? | 19:58 |
| UberStudenter | list of 6 things.. | 19:58 |
| UberStudenter | i din't know there was any other type | 19:58 |
| UberStudenter | a live cd with a graphical window? | 19:58 |
| quesada | what's a good online coverter to get openoffice slides -> pdf? | 19:59 |
| UberStudenter | and all my distros are the latest ones.. from distrowatch | 19:59 |
| suprengr | jrib: "write" but terminal closes as soon as its done it | 19:59 |
| maco | xiaclo: hmm you're right. yet on red hat theres an iptables script in /etc/init.d/ *sigh* grr ubuntu doing things differently | 19:59 |
| quesada | the build-in one (file>export) did a bad job | 19:59 |
| suprengr | jrib: ...& so it seemswith cat as well | 19:59 |
| trism | c3l: if it is just for my local user, I usually add it to the end of ~/.bashrc, although you can also use ~/.pam_environment, but it has a more complicated format | 19:59 |
| === bsod1 is now known as bsod1_away | ||
| jrib | suprengr: you could do something silly like run bash again at the end, does that work at least? There's probably a better way though | 20:00 |
| maco | UberStudenter: ubuntu 10.04 has a graphical window... though kubuntu doesnt (yet) | 20:00 |
| xiaclo | maco the one in red hat simply handles saving and restoring iptables around a restart, i'm sure someone has something similar for ubuntu, but it still runs in the kernel, that rc script is just minor management stuff | 20:00 |
| jrib | !away > bsod1_away | 20:00 |
| ubottu | bsod1_away, please see my private message | 20:00 |
| wessel | hello, I'm installing torcs using apt-get install torcs, is this the same as downloading a bz2 file and then doing make, make install, make datainstall? http://torcs.sourceforge.net/index.php?name=Sections&op=viewarticle&artid=3#linux-lokiinstaller | 20:00 |
| xiaclo | maco you can do something similar using 'iptables-save > file' and 'iptables-restore file' | 20:00 |
| maco | xiaclo: yeah i know it runs in the kernel, but i was expecting a script to do save/restore | 20:00 |
| rob_p | maco: Even on redhat, that init script doesn't start a persistant process. It just configures the kernel packet filtering via iptables and then it's done. | 20:01 |
| UberStudenter | i have 10.4.. i don't remember seeing a GUI | 20:01 |
| maco | xiaclo: trouble is i dont know where the file webmin created is | 20:01 |
| nafri | hello, how can I find and replace a word in all the files recursively in a folder? | 20:01 |
| nafri | like I wanna replace A with B in all the files in my folder and subfolder | 20:01 |
| c3l | trism: okay. Id like to add one more path to $HOME, but how do I make sure thir new definition of $HOME reads before the 'normal' home ~/? | 20:01 |
| UberStudenter | anyways.. i burn it on a cd coz they are cheap | 20:01 |
| maco | xiaclo: so i was expecting ubuntu to have a script there thatd unload all the junk webmin put on slyboots's system | 20:01 |
| jrib | nafri: use find and sed | 20:01 |
| xiaclo | nafri so you're just playing with file names? or did you actually want to search into the file contents? | 20:01 |
| UberStudenter | for 10 distros i will have to have 10 usb | 20:02 |
| jshriver | Greetings | 20:02 |
| trism | c3l: you probably don't want to mess with the $HOME variable, it should point to the $HOME of the current user (what are you trying to do?) | 20:02 |
| jshriver | How can you specify the port for ssh to use in rsync? | 20:02 |
| maco | UberStudenter: but you can reuse USBs ;-) CDs you have to throw away when a new one comes out | 20:02 |
| maco | UberStudenter: anyway, ok hit F6 to get to the boot options | 20:02 |
| nafri | xiaclo: i want to search inside file and replace that word | 20:03 |
| xiaclo | c3l this is a BAD idea, but it's a variable like any other ... so .... HOME="/newpath;$HOME" | 20:03 |
| maco | slyboots: ok well to delete all the existing rules, sudo iptables -F INPUT ; sudo iptables -F OUTPUT ; sudo iptables -F FORWARD | 20:03 |
| UberStudenter | ok.. and then "toram"? | 20:03 |
| maco | UberStudenter: yep | 20:04 |
| wessel | how do I install a tgz file? | 20:04 |
| rockhopper | Hi, Is there a way to unlock the ubuntu netbook top panel? | 20:04 |
| maco | slyboots: then you can "sudo ufw enable" and give ufw whatever commands you want, view its rules with "sudo ufw status" and view iptables' interpretation of those rules with "sudo iptables -L" | 20:04 |
| slyboots | maco: done that, rules are flushed | 20:04 |
| rockhopper | I've installed Netbook remix on an ubuntu desktop edition and I am getting two clocks in the top panel! Can anyone help me removing one clock? | 20:05 |
| maco | slyboots: is there a script somewhere in /etc/init.d or /etc/rc.d/ or /etc/rc.local that calls iptables restore on a webmin-generated file? if so, get rid of that call | 20:05 |
| UberStudenter | maco: ok.. sooo.. i should download the driver/firmware and save it somewhere.. right? | 20:05 |
| rockhopper | Is there anyone who knows about my problem? | 20:05 |
| maco | UberStudenter: sure | 20:05 |
| FiReSTaRT | rockhopper: right-click on one of them, left click on remove from panel | 20:05 |
| masterBIGwilly | is there a dictionary program in ubuntu where it doens't need to the net's assistance? | 20:05 |
| c3l | trism: yeah, I want it to keep pointing to ~/ too, but I want another directory also used as $HOME. this is because I have a bunch of config files in a git repo, its a pain making symlinks for each file when im at a new computer or reinstalling etc, and I want those configs to be read before any possibly existing default configs, if I miss to delete some or so. But now I realise,a s xiaclo says, thats a bad idea as that ... | 20:05 |
| maco | masterBIGwilly: the "dict" command | 20:06 |
| c3l | ... git repo will act as my primary HOME, and thatll mess stuff up. so how do I solve this in a nice way? :) | 20:06 |
| masterBIGwilly | maco, that needs the internet | 20:06 |
| rockhopper | FiReSTaRT: Its Ubuntu netbook panel.. Its locked i think. I cant remove it | 20:06 |
| xiaclo | nafri no guarantee this will work ... and please back up the folder before doing this .... for file in *; do cat $file | sed "s/A/B/g" > $file; done | 20:06 |
| UberStudenter | maco: so what do you sugget i save on this cd | 20:06 |
| maco | masterBIGwilly: O_o hrmph. odd... i thought id used it offline... | 20:06 |
| rob_p | wessel: You don't. You unzip/untar it. Once you do that, you have the file(s) ready for whatever needs to be done with it/them. | 20:06 |
| maco | UberStudenter: whatever you want? | 20:06 |
| rockhopper | FiReSTaRT: the option's unavailable | 20:06 |
| FiReSTaRT | rockhopper: in that case sorry, can't help you (no experience with it).. someone else? | 20:06 |
| masterBIGwilly | maco, really, what option did you use with it? | 20:06 |
| trism | c3l: HOME isn't a search path, it is an actual directory string, you could add GIT_PATH or some other new variable to use though if you wanted | 20:06 |
| jrib | xiaclo, nafri: that won't do it recursively | 20:07 |
| UberStudenter | i mean.. what all do you suggest .. so i can burn the cd one time | 20:07 |
| maco | masterBIGwilly: hmm the package description says i mustve been mistaken | 20:07 |
| kain_ | hi all | 20:07 |
| xiaclo | jrib nafri no, its very simple, it won't handle anything with spaces either .... | 20:07 |
| xover | hi guys | 20:07 |

| kain_ | the file is a pdf | 20:07 |
| UberStudenter | wireless drivers, graphics card dr, any utilities? | 20:07 |
| rob_p | wessel: To uncompress and unarchive a tgz file, a simple, "tar -zxvf filename" will do. | 20:07 |
| xover | my fans are idling all the time now at 2000rpm, how can i sort this out or begin to figure out what went wrong? | 20:08 |
| wessel | thanks | 20:08 |
| UberStudenter | or shall i just save it to my hard drive | 20:08 |
| BB` | I removed the volume icon from the gnome task tray, is there a way I can get it back? | 20:08 |
| jrib | xiaclo: just « find -exec sed 's/A/B/g' '{}' \; » should do | 20:08 |

| FIQ|n900 | wireless* | 20:08 |
| maco | masterBIGwilly: stardict appears to allow you to download dictionaries locally to use | 20:08 |
| masterBIGwilly | maco, ah really | 20:09 |
| masterBIGwilly | maco, just sudo apt-get install stardict? | 20:09 |
| maco | masterBIGwilly: yep and then you can fetch dictionaries from http://stardict.sourceforge.net/ | 20:09 |
| jrib | xiaclo: erm, with -i of course :) | 20:09 |
| FIQ|n900 | it required a firmware (from broadcom), now i've downloaded it and runned some config manually instead of using KNetworkManager | 20:09 |
| FIQ|n900 | and i managed to assign correct router, and i can connect locally | 20:10 |
| FIQ|n900 | but i've still no internet | 20:10 |
| xiaclo | c3l trism yeah, what AM i thinking ... HOME="/newpath" ... it can't be multiple directories | 20:10 |
| masterBIGwilly | what are some educational programs taht can crack wep/wpa keys? | 20:10 |

| FIQ|n900 | KNetwork wasn't able to find my router at all | 20:11 |
| masterBIGwilly | kde frontend? | 20:11 |
| FIQ|n900 | s/Network/NetworkManager/ | 20:11 |
| FIQ|n900 | so i used iwconfig, and dhcpcd | 20:11 |
| FIQ|n900 | so i can connect to 192.168.0.1 now | 20:12 |
| FIQ|n900 | but not to internet | 20:12 |
| flowbee | is there a good photo manager? for ubuntu in terms of importing photos from digital camera to m computer | 20:12 |
| guntbert | masterBIGwilly: discussion of cracking keys is not welcome her | 20:12 |
| xiaclo | masterBIGwilly educational huh? that's what they all say .... in general look into kismet, aircrack-ng ... for WPA you can't brute force, but you can dictionary attack it, look into rainbow tables (not a software, just google it) and john (is a program) | 20:12 |
| maco | FIQ|n900: is it that you cant reach the outside net or that you have no name resolution? | 20:12 |
| masterBIGwilly | squarish | 20:12 |
| maco | FIQ|n900: ie, can you ping 208.67.222.222 ? | 20:12 |
| rob_p | FIQ|n900: Can you ping IPs on the internet? If so, perhaps you have a DNS issue. | 20:12 |
| FIQ|n900 | yes | 20:12 |
| UberStudenter | FIQ|n900: i have broadcom too.. did you install the drivers through "Hardware Drivers"? | 20:12 |
| c3l | trism: but then all thos config files wont be read correctly.. they should appear as in $HOME . is it not possible to achieve this? | 20:12 |
| FIQ|n900 | @ maco | 20:12 |
| maco | FIQ|n900: ok you need to put a nameserver (such as the IP i just gave you) in /etc/resolv.conf | 20:13 |
| maco | FIQ|n900: just give it the line: nameserver 208.67.222.222 | 20:13 |
| FIQ|n900 | ah, works | 20:14 |
| FIQ|n900 | ty | 20:14 |
| BB` | I removed the volume icon from the gnome task tray, is there a way I can get it back? | 20:15 |
| Hopsa | Nice work with the security check/question. Good work! | 20:15 |
| trism | c3l: oh, I see what you're trying to do, I'm not sure of a method to do that, although one may be possible somehow...might be easier to just write a script that creates all the symbolic links automatically (and possibly one to remove them later) | 20:15 |
| sebsebseb | !panels | BB` | 20:15 |
| ubottu | BB`: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 20:15 |
| slyboots | Right, well.. I think that worked OK? | 20:15 |
| UberStudenter | maco: so what are my steps to make my experience more stream lines | 20:17 |
| UberStudenter | *lined | 20:17 |
| dpac_ | BB`: http://goo.gl/Kwv6 | 20:17 |
| estragib | BB, you can also try right-clicking the panel, "Add to Panel", "Indicator Applet" | 20:18 |
| Roasted | I installed the elementary nautilus mod. I want to revert back to regular nautilus. How do I do that? When I tried to remove it from synaptic it told me it would remove ubuntu-desktop as well. Whoa... how can I get this back? | 20:18 |

| trism | scrpngltch: odd, I'm not sure what the problem is | 20:47 |
| estragib | scrpngltch: you're right, something doesn't seem to work with "remember". open the context menu and "properties". you can change the default app for the file type there. | 20:47 |

| dpac_ | Gokul__: Download from http://packages.debian.org/lenny/wvdial .. copy paste the file onto that computer and double click it to install. | 20:47 |
| estragib | scrpngltch: there's an "open with" tab in properties | 20:48 |

| scrpngltch | estragib: thank you that worked | 20:48 |
| dpac_ | Pici: I was about to ask someone to print-uri but I thought that would work | 20:49 |
| Guest73730 | thanks | 20:49 |
| Pici | Gokul__: Because this is Ubuntu, not Debian. | 20:49 |

| jrib | Guest73730: dependencies aren't really optional... | 20:50 |
| dpac_ | Gokul__: You shouldn't. You should download all the required packages and install them. | 20:51 |

| Kartagis | mencoder gives me this: xvid: you must specify one or a valid combination of 'bitrate', 'pass', 'fixed_quant' settings. I looked and there's no bitrate option usable with xvid. any ideas? | 20:51 |
| Hopsa | kevinSJ: Some brands of cd's are using odd methods. One of those brands is "SKC" i think. | 20:51 |
| jrib | Kartagis: you should probably tell the channel what you give mencoder | 20:51 |

Can I add basic desktop functionality to keep me going until my laptop gets back from repair by installing ubuntu-desktop packages, then remove them without much trouble to revert back to a "normal" server? | 20:55 |
| === Iizd0od is now known as MichealH | ||
| Hopsa | kevinSJ: Should be ok. I couldnt burn the latest debian cd using gnome-baker or nautilus-burn or k3b or... Maybe wodim is hosed ? | 20:55 |

| donnkeyyyy | or type anything | 20:58 |

| dpac_ | donnkeyyyy: You can check after you reboot. The file will still contain the error. | 20:58 |
| renedox | ctrl + alt + f1 | 20:58 |
| dekroning | my problem is that the GUI seems to use the default gateway on the remote network by default after it is connected to the remote openvpn server | 20:58 |

| Hopsa | kevinSJ: Yep... wodim has been a bit destroyed it seems. | 20:59 |
| donnkeyyyy | Renedox Im running ubuntu on a USB | 20:59 |

| Hopsa | kevinSJ: A new wodim could work.. | 21:00 |
| dpac_ | donnkeyyyy: ohh, alright. | 21:00 |
| renedox | wessel: use synaptic - complete removal | 21:00 |
| donnkeyyyy | hmm it does not show any path though | 21:00 |
| Slart | wessel: try, sudo apt-get purge --reinstall someprogram | 21:00 |

| amanita_ | Hi, I have audio only as root (alsamixer etc), or as user in the console, not after startx. | 21:03 |

| donnkeyyyy | ok | 21:03 |
| donnkeyyyy | renedox, I cant | 21:04 |
| donnkeyyyy | :( I can only go in recovery mode | 21:04 |
| Hopsa | kevinSJ: Doesnt work on Fedora either so it could be a kernel change causing a required wodim update. | 21:04 |

| donnkeyyyy | renedox...which one?? | 21:07 |
| donnkeyyyy | those are the options right now | 21:07 |

| Kartagis | dpac_ oh I got it, I forgot to prefix it with - | 21:13 |
| dpac_ | Kartagis: I was just typing how to do that :) | 21:13 |
| dpac_ | dominicdinada: I believe it doesn't contain any other files. | 21:13 |
| dominicdinada | dpac_: wont that break the next session. I always connect to a remote server. but the session hashes never flush and it is quite annoying taking an extra 10 steps to flush them each time | 21:14 |
| _L30_ | ahh | 21:14 |
| Kartagis | dpac_ yea, thanks | 21:14 |
| dpac_ | dominicdinada: Well you can make a script which checks modified date and delete all the files except the latest one. | 21:14 |
| dominicdinada | 1. click to connect. 2. connection fails. 3. exit out of failed connection window. 4. open up home folder. 5. ctrl+h 6. browse to .dbus. 7. goto session 8. delete session 9. attempt to connect. 10 fails at least 3 times till system realizes the session is flushed | 21:16 |
| slow-motion | n8 | 21:16 |
| Hopsa | kevinSJ: It can be interresting to see if growisofs works.. | 21:17 |
| dominicdinada | dpac_: there should be no sessions in the folder on start up but it needs the folder to write new sessions so it just needs to delete the files in the folder wildcard....... not the folder | 21:17 |
| UberStudenter | maco: you there? | 21:17 |
| donnkeyyyy | renedox....left???? | 21:18 |
| dpac_ | dominicdinada: Alternatively, why not empty the directory while rebooting/shutdown. Put rm -rf /home/user/dbus/sessions/ in a script and put the script in /etc/rc0.d/ | 21:18 |
| jrib | dpac_: what kludge :P | 21:19 |
| donnkeyyyy | dpac_ renedox left me on a screen do you know what I should do? | 21:19 |

| dpac_ | jrib: Ahh, it is :). Its a xy problem really. | 21:20 |
| dpac_ | dominicdinada: Did you try to find out what's causing the sessions not to be removed instead of a workaround? Maybe its a bug | 21:20 |
| dpac_ | donnkeyyyy: Did you check the kern.log? | 21:21 |
| dpac_ | donnkeyyyy: Do you see any errors? | 21:21 |

| hiexpo | alex2222, yes i am looking for the command | 21:27 |
| dominicdinada | dpac_: no i didnt no one has answered how to do this or pointed out a bug. not only that, this has been a problem with lucid from day 1 | 21:27 |
| hiexpo | 1 min | 21:27 |
| jrib | dominicdinada: did you find a bug? Or file one if you didn't? | 21:28 |
| hiexpo | ifconfig wlan0 up > down | 21:28 |
| renedox | donnkeyyyy: did you fix it? my connection when screwy | 21:28 |
| donnkeyyyy | renedox | 21:29 |
| donnkeyyyy | I checked the log | 21:29 |
| hiexpo | alex2222, to stop use sudo iwconfig wlan0 down | 21:29 |
| donnkeyyyy | It has Error raw EDID errors | 21:29 |
| dominicdinada | jrib: no i didnt. if i am the only person having a problem then the most likely idea would to be throughly trouble shoot it. | 21:29 |
| jrib | dominicdinada: how do you know you're the only person? | 21:29 |
| dominicdinada | and not flood launchpad with bugs | 21:29 |

| ubottu | ratt|away, please see my private message | 21:30 |
| dominicdinada | jrib: i don't know that i am but asking and solving the problem is the first step | 21:30 |
| jrib | dominicdinada: you said you had it since day 1 so presumably you've done the obvious things like trying to replicate it on a fresh install and if it happens there you should just file a bug | 21:31 |
| estragib | STN-: as no one else seems to know (i don't exactly either), here's what i'd do: look in the bios if i can disable it there. if not torture google for "linux disable touchpad <laptop model>" | 21:31 |
| oly562 | hi | 21:31 |
| Mrokii | hello. Is there any way to make an already open (but minimized) application maximize itself? What I am looking for is a way to emulate Guake with the regular Gnome-Terminal, so I maximize/minimize it via a keystroke. | 21:31 |

| dominicdinada | jrib: no I get tired of asking without a fix so i deal with it until it pisses me off again then attempt to correct the problem. Was the same way with ufw enable not correctly setting the firewall to on on reboot. I did it constantly for a few months till i just hard wrote it | 21:32 |
| Mrokii | jrib: Thank you, I will take a look at that. | 21:32 |
| jrib | dominicdinada: this is what bugs are for | 21:32 |
| renedox | donnkeyyyy: it looks to be a bug with video drivers | 21:33 |
| dominicdinada | jrib: maybe but i am looking for a work around atm | 21:33 |
| renedox | donnkeyyyy: or it could be the install was corrupted some how | 21:33 |
| donnkeyyyy | renedox thats very possible | 21:33 |
| jrib | dominicdinada: then state your problem with details | 21:33 |
| donnkeyyyy | renedox... the installation was working perfectly | 21:33 |
| renedox | donnkeyyyy: you may need to back up then reinstall - using a different device | 21:33 |
| dominicdinada | workaround for the ufw enable bug was to hard write it to on in the ufw.conf | 21:33 |
| dominicdinada | Question I am always getting dbus error messages because when shutting down or what not the session file is not being flushed. How do i add an cron or upstart job to kill the dbus session so i dont get the errors | 21:34 |
| jrib | dominicdinada: I read that already | 21:34 |
| dominicdinada | 1. click to connect. 2. connection fails. 3. exit out of failed connection window. 4. open up home folder. 5. ctrl+h 6. browse to .dbus. 7. goto session 8. delete session 9. attempt to connect. 10 fails at least 3 times till system realizes the session is flushed | 21:34 |
| renedox | donnkeyyyy: if you get the same problem after a reinstall, it could be your monitor that isn't fully supported | 21:34 |
| donnkeyyyy | renedox...its probably the video because I do get some error in startup | 21:34 |
| jrib | dominicdinada: what error messages, etc. Use a pastebin if you have to | 21:34 |
| donnkeyyyy | something about the monitors | 21:34 |
| dominicdinada | jrib: so i do not know what is causing the problem exactly ? maybe shutting down without waiting 10 mins for the system to flush the session file or what | 21:34 |
| donnkeyyyy | renedox.. its something like error on line one | 21:35 |
| UberStudenter | wondering if anyone could shed some light as to how i can minimize my work when i try various diff LIVE distros. i have to hunt for my broadcom drivers and install them in every distro i try | 21:35 |
| dominicdinada | jrib: ugh i already flushed it using the dbus-cleanup-socket command | 21:35 |
| renedox | donnkeyyyy: yeah, it looks to be a video driver problem | 21:35 |
| jrib | dominicdinada: I have no clue where you are even clicking | 21:35 |

| deco | steve_: yeah :) | 21:36 |
| donnkeyyyy | now it says couldn't read file | 21:36 |
| jrib | dominicdinada: read what you are writing. You need to stop, collect your thoughts, and summarize your issue one ONE line while providing links to relevant commands, errors, etc. on a pastebin | 21:36 |
| donnkeyyyy | you need to install the kernal first | 21:36 |
| anAngel | Hello. How can i make tcpdump to start at boot time and run in the background? the tcpdump command im trying to run background is: tcpdump -vv -x -X -s 1500 'port 25' -n -i eth0 -C 2047 -w /home/tcpdump/tcpdump.eth0.pcap | 21:37 |
| renedox | donnkeyyyy: personally, the policy is software first then hardware since it's easier that way | 21:37 |
| dominicdinada | jrib: With the exception of the error i have written it all... and it is a dbus socket error. i will reboot to grab that error | 21:37 |
| renedox | donnkeyyyy: so I would recommend backup then reinstall | 21:37 |

| renedox | donnkeyyyy: what were the last few things you did before you got this problem? did you do an update/upgrade? | 21:40 |
| steve_ | can anyone recommend a theme with some transparency for window edges etc | 21:40 |

| hiexpo | hello all | 21:47 |
| Fishscene | uomobonga: Have you considered formatting it FAT? | 21:47 |
| latagore | Hey guys, I set up a driver but apparently it requires me to change something at boot time for it to start up every time so I would like some help | 21:47 |
| jrib | uomobonga: you have two options. setgid on the directory and change user's umasks to give group write permissions or use ACLs | 21:48 |
| gnuskool | allo allo | 21:48 |
| aeon-ltd | uomobonga: uhh, users of what?, the same machine? | 21:48 |
| jrib | users' | 21:49 |
| uomobonga | yes, all users are from the same machine | 21:49 |
| aeon-ltd | uomobonga: you could just have a ext3 partition with folders in it, and read and write access for every user | 21:49 |
| uomobonga | do you have a link with instructions for the umask solution jrib? | 21:50 |
| nrp36 | Is there a filesystem for Ubuntu that supports versions like ZFS? | 21:50 |
| jrib | uomobonga: nope, just what I said « man chmod » I guess for setgid part and for umask, edit the global profile: /etc/profile or /etc/profile.d/whatever | 21:50 |
| Hopsa | kevinSJ: There seems to be some kind of argument about wodim/cdrkit/cdrtools here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=507108 (Maybe that has something to do with it) Itd be uncool if it was, but i understand Joerg as well. | 21:50 |

| renedox | xtremox: yes | 21:52 |
| aeon-ltd | xtremox: depends what your trying to watch, but mplayer is nice and light so yeah | 21:52 |
| jrib | uomobonga: you add the "acl" option in fstab for the partition you want to use ACLs on, and then you read « man setfacl », though here you can probably find some decent tutorials by searching for "linux ACL" too. And there's some gui program for editing ACLs: eiciel | 21:53 |

| trism | steve_: oh, and for nautilus, in gconf-editor go to /desktop/gnome/interface and check can_change_accels then in nautilus, navigate somewhere so the back button works, go to the Go menu, hover over Back with your mouse and hit the backspace key to remap the binding | 21:57 |

| VilasBoas | does anyone knows how to install a SQL database on ubuntu??? | 22:25 |
| Boreum | What does it mean if when you turn on your computer and all you get is a black screen with a blinking cursor at the top left? I tried installing Ubuntu on an IBM Thinkpad R40 and that is what happens after the IBM Splash screen. I have also tried booting from a Live CD and Bootable USB both of which are not recognized(?) and I get the same black screen with blinking cursor. Any thoughts? | 22:25 |
| dixond | kthakore: well, unmute aall the channels anyhow and check. that is definitely different from mine, but... | 22:25 |
| jrib | VilasBoas: I just told you how. | 22:25 |
| Hopsa | kthakore: restart the pulseaudio init script first.. | 22:25 |
| kthakore | Hopsa: how? | 22:25 |
| jrib | VilasBoas: what do you mean by SQL? | 22:25 |
| moronic_moron | hi does anyone know if u can change the default gdm theme in ubuntu? | 22:25 |
| dixond | oh, pulse is stopped? | 22:26 |
| kthakore | dixond: dunno | 22:26 |
| avi_ | Slart, Ah! Finally fixed it! I just kept space as the delimeter and made it use fields 23-24, which are the URLs. | 22:26 |
| Hopsa | kthakore: /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart or so.. | 22:26 |
| dixond | moronic_moron: there used to be a preferences thing for that, but it vanished a few releases back. | 22:26 |
| moronic_moron | sad man | 22:26 |
| dixond | moronic_moron: I know :( | 22:26 |
| moronic_moron | so there's no way to customise the login screen? :( | 22:26 |
| kthakore | dixond: same thing | 22:27 |
| kthakore | Hopsa: same thing with pulse started | 22:27 |
| dixond | moronic_moron: probably 'by hand' replacing the files in the right place, but I don't know where... | 22:27 |
| Hopsa | moronic_moron: You get sad from knowing to little about themes ? | 22:27 |
| VilasBoas | jrib: i need to use a MS-SQL database to put a saotware working on linux and pass all the company to Linux | 22:27 |
| moronic_moron | lol | 22:27 |
| dixond | kthakore: so you have unmuted also? | 22:27 |
| dixond | VilasBoas: not gonna happen. | 22:27 |
| jrib | VilasBoas: erm, ms-sql? on linux? | 22:27 |
| kthakore | dixond: where is this unmuted ? | 22:27 |
| Hopsa | kthakore: Rightclick the volume applet... Crank PCM etc UP | 22:27 |
| moronic_moron | Hopsa: so how do u customise the login theme? -.- | 22:28 |
| jrib | VilasBoas: you know what the MS stands for right? | 22:28 |
| dixond | kthakore: the MM in the squares indicates muted, IIRC the arrowms and spacebar can unmute | 22:28 |
| VCoolio | moronic_moron: try gdm2setup from launchpad.net, it has an ubuntu repo you can add | 22:28 |
| Hopsa | moronic_moron: I have had no need to do so. | 22:28 |
| area51pilot | moronic_moron: have u tried replacing the image in the file system | 22:28 |
| moronic_moron | I can change the background using ubuntu tweak | 22:28 |
| en | hello | 22:28 |
| moronic_moron | but that's about it -.- | 22:28 |
| kthakore | dixond: ok I did them all but S/PDIF is still 0 | 22:29 |
| VilasBoas | jrib: i know it's very bad but i need to do it | 22:29 |
| dixond | kthakore: IIRC uparrow puts volume up also | 22:29 |
| Boreum | Any thoughts on my problem? | 22:29 |
| Hopsa | kthakore: Fn+Volume up on the keyboard is also a way. | 22:29 |
| dixond | kthakore: has HDMI audio-out ever worked ok with this setup? | 22:29 |
| jrib | VilasBoas: has nothing to do with badness, I highly doubt you can run ms-sql on linux. Use mysql or postgresql. If you can't, and you really need to use ms-sql, use windows | 22:30 |
| kthakore | dixond: nope | 22:30 |

| giiker | jrib: well do you remember the command, this is better 'cause I'm using Lubuntu | 22:58 |
| Boreum | Hopsa: So it is possibly just bad drivers or something to do with my Graphics card? | 22:58 |
| Hopsa | foreste: Check /var/log/messages and see the tv card listing. It changes once in a blue moon. | 22:58 |
| foreste | what my writer options in system ? | 22:58 |
| jrib | giiker: cvlc ${RTSP_LINK} --sout '#transcode{acodec=mp3,ab=128}:std{access=file,mux=dummy,dst="'${NEWFILE}'.mp3"}' vlc://quit is what I used. Check vlc's documentation. Their wiki has a page on this | 22:58 |
| giiker | jrib: ok thanks a lot! | 22:59 |

| Hopsa | aseem: " some string". Goto channel php or perl ? | 23:45 |
| richie086 | jrib: using dpkg or apt-get? like i said still getting familiar with how dpkg works | 23:45 |
| Olytibar | latagore: Maybe (I am not sure) you just have to replace /usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png Just rename the original file and create a new one with the name. | 23:45 |
| jrib | richie086: well the command to just remove is "apt-get remove tex-common" | 23:45 |
