| toonacid | Does anyone know a command to find files in the console? I need to do something like "find /home -name db/*", where it finds only "db", AND every directory under it. The recurse part under the matched directory is what I can't figure out | 00:05 |
| storm_zen | toonacid, doesn't find automatically recurse? | 00:05 |
| balding_parrot | Hi, I need to write a preinst script that stops X (kde) then continues to perform the rest of the tasks. Anyone have a code snippet to point me in the right direction | 00:05 |
| rbastic | randomOfAmber, Also, right off the bat, you can just open up a Terminal and type 'strings hisprogram' and it'll give you a list of all the unencrypted strings of data in the file. | 00:06 |
| thechris | toonacid: find /home -name "db/*" | 00:06 |
| toonacid | It does. However I also need it to find all directories under the -name | 00:06 |
| rbastic | randomOfAmber, If he is trying to just do a simple rm -rf /* command or something like that it will probably show up right away in the list | 00:06 |
| tjubaluba | can you pipe to a variable o do you have to encolse stdout yielding expressions in $(expr) | 00:06 |
| tjubaluba | ? | 00:06 |
| thechris | toonacid: find /home -name "*db/*" | 00:06 |

| ubottu | DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! | 00:07 |
| tjubaluba | bash scripting is so unintutive | 00:07 |
| randomOfAmber | rbastic: what list? | 00:07 |
| === kai_62656 is now known as kracker[BDC] | ||
| toonacid | thechris: It's not working for me. Find is returning: "find: warning: Unix filenames usually don't contain slashes (though pathnames do). That means that '-name `*db/*'' will probably evaluate to false all the time on this system. You might find the '-wholename' test more useful, or perhaps '-samefile'. Alternatively, if you are using GNU grep, you could use 'find ... -print0 | grep -FzZ `*db/*''." | 00:07 |
| maco | rbastic: please don't give such commands here | 00:07 |
| storm_zen | rbastic's command is dangerous. | 00:08 |
| zeknox | anyone have any ideas why my hdd wont clean unmount off of a normal reboot? | 00:08 |
| rbastic | oh, sorry | 00:08 |
| rbastic | you're not supposed to run that command :) i thought that was obvious | 00:08 |
| rbastic | because the intent was clear from randomOfAmber's friend's program and what she is asking to protect from | 00:08 |
| thechris | toonacid: oh, there might be a -regex or -iregex that might be what you want | 00:08 |
| rbastic | or he, excuse me | 00:08 |
| balding_parrot | All the ways of stopping X I have tried also kill the preinst | 00:08 |
| thechris | toonacid: eg -regex ".*db/.*" | 00:09 |
| maco | rbastic: many users have no idea what rm does and if they werent following your conversation closely (being spread over so many lines as it is) they could go "oh, what's that do? *copy* *paste* EEK!" | 00:09 |
| thechris | speaking of X, does anyone know how to reinstall the nvidia kernel module? | 00:09 |
| toonacid | thechris: Sweet, it works. Thanks. | 00:09 |
| cmihai | Hi. How do you force a e2fsck of the root filesystem without a livecd? I can't "mount -o remount,ro /" (fs busy) in init 1, and touch /forcefsck && shutdown -F doesn't do the trick. | 00:10 |
| toonacid | thechris: I want to find all the directories, so I did this, and it returns nothing. :/ "find ./svn -type d -regex "*db/*" | 00:10 |
| thechris | toonacid the "."s are significant -- regex's are different than globbing | 00:11 |
| cmihai | And for that matter, what's the correct syntax for e2fsck? -n reports fs errors, but -fv doesn't fix them. | 00:11 |
| cmihai | Eg: "sudo e2fsck -n /dev/mapper/rootvg-home" reports some errors, but they don't get fixed in init 1. And I can't fsck rootvg-root. | 00:12 |
| toonacid | thechris: That's a good point. I knew that, but didn't think about it. >.< | 00:12 |
| toonacid | thechris: It's all good now, thanks. | 00:12 |

| xMff | funkiwan: I just upgrade from 9.04 to 10.04 and experienced something similar, in the end the window manager crashed | 01:20 |
| ryen | storm_zen: Try a YouTube video, see if that works. | 01:20 |
| funkiwan | xMff: some web searching seems to indicate it may be a problem with my nvidia driver | 01:20 |

| Datz | Acidphase: ah, you didn't list that before, I don't know | 01:20 |
| Datz | Acidphase: I'd assume it's the FSB.. or AMD equivalent | 01:21 |
| Datz | hi, is there a way to selectively update via aptitude? | 01:21 |
| xMff | funkiwan: yep, for me it was the ati driver, trashed the opengl libs on my system causing window managers and stuff to segfault or bail out with xlib errors | 01:21 |
| Acidphase | thts because I was teling people what dist. , Kernel, and CPU I had | 01:21 |

| Acidphase | it's fine in Bios and windows =P | 01:22 |
| Acidphase | so something in "Ubuntu" is making it run @ 800Mhz | 01:22 |
| Datz | Acidphase: look into the sysinfo script I guess | 01:22 |
| ryen | jrib: You are right either way, apt-get or aptitude will work. | 01:22 |
| storm_zen | ryen, nope. | 01:22 |
| xMff | Acidphase: might be cpu frequency scaling | 01:22 |
| Datz | Acidphase: the script may be computing it incorrectly | 01:22 |
| Datz | also could be that, but that is very low | 01:23 |
| Acidphase | cool and quiet isn't enabled | 01:23 |
| xMff | Acidphase: you can add the cpu frequency applet to your taskbar and see whether it lets you increase the freq | 01:23 |
| Acidphase | Datz, I used 3 different to confirm it | 01:23 |
| ryen | storm_zen: Hm.. I used to have an issue when I was programming in Java, that if Java used sound, it destroyed my sound until I rebooted. Have you used any Java applications? | 01:23 |
| xMff | linux usually does not care aboutr cool & quiet bios settings | 01:23 |
| jrib | ryen: I know, but his question said aptitude specifically so I had to correct it :) | 01:23 |

| LucidGuy | jinxzs, you have to double click 3 more times | 01:38 |
| jrib | LucidGuy: please be helpful... | 01:38 |

| jinxzs | i do have already wine | 01:38 |
| jrib | jinxzs: there's also crossover office you can try out | 01:38 |
| lahwran | jinxzs: HOWEVER you can make ubuntu pretend to be windows with wine .. oh | 01:39 |
| jrib | jinxzs: appdb gives you specific instructions | 01:39 |
| Zelfje | what would be the most common open web ports in a default firewall besides :80 and :8080 ?? | 01:39 |
| ryen | jinxzs: If you are getting the permission error, right click setup.exe, and then goto Permissions, and make sure Exercute: is checked. | 01:39 |
| sy | So, my teacher just said Linux is less secure than Windows. | 01:39 |
| LucidGuy | jinxzs, I recommend getting a virtualbox vm of Windows XP. | 01:39 |
| jrib | !ot | sy | 01:39 |
| ubottu | sy: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 01:39 |
| matador | so guys, how to use paste.ubuntu.com ? | 01:40 |
| lukus | virtual box is great | 01:40 |
| matador | i'm just sleeping | 01:40 |
| jinxzs | im running full ubuntu.. | 01:40 |
| intrader | jinxzs, give Open Office a try. I have not had any problems with MSWord documents, presentations, etc. | 01:40 |
| matador | i feel like an idiot | 01:40 |
| matador | :) | 01:40 |
| lukus | i've had probs with docx | 01:40 |
| LucidGuy | You can even run a local kvm vm and rdesktop to it. | 01:40 |
| jimbro | Open Office runs on any type of OS you can name | 01:40 |
| lukus | intrader, ^ | 01:40 |
| jinxzs | yea i did try open office and i pretty knows it well | 01:41 |
| jinxzs | but my sister insists | 01:41 |
| jimbro | Your teacher should take his head out of the sand | 01:41 |
| LucidGuy | Anyone want to recommend a good linux web provider. | 01:42 |
| alzie | Acidphase: try " dmesg | grep MHz " in terminal and see what the results are | 01:42 |
| intrader | jinxzs, tell her to be specific as to what she can't do in Open Office that she can in M$ stuff! | 01:42 |
| jimbro | try peoplepc | 01:42 |
| jinxzs | i want to kill her. so stupid | 01:42 |
| jinxzs | i didnt saw ms2003 in wine hq | 01:43 |
| LorgonJortle | Hi! | 01:44 |
| intrader | jinxzs, don't go doing that, just have her show you. Do you have a dual boot situation? Or as was suggested a virtualbox running Windows XP? | 01:45 |
| njg_ | Hello. was there a big bug in today's kernel update? | 01:45 |
| ryen | njg_: I have not heard about any large bugs. Why? | 01:45 |
| jinxzs | no i installed it full ubuntu.. | 01:45 |
| LorgonJortle | I just installed Unreal Tournament 2004 and when I try to run it, the game runs well, but there's not sound. I get this in the console: 'open /dev/[sound/]dsp: Device or resource busy' Suggestions? | 01:45 |
| jinxzs | hahahaha | 01:46 |
| intrader | lukus, what was ^? | 01:46 |
| lukus | intrader, was saying i'd had probs with docx (and openoffice) | 01:46 |
| lukus | responding to yr comment about no probs | 01:46 |
| lukus | it's pretty good tho | 01:47 |
| njg_ | ok... i have a big problem, possibly with kernel, possibly with X.org or possibly with Firefox... I don't have access to the system 'till I get back to work | 01:47 |
| jinxzs | -is not marked as executable it says. | 01:47 |
| intrader | lukus, I know, it it has not had any problems with documents from my work. | 01:47 |
| PiranhaP | I am trying to build a root filesystem for a device using APT directly (rather than debootstrap or multistrap), but debconf (dpkg-preconfigure) insists on using the root directory (/) rather than my build root (e.g. Dir::).

| jrib | intrader: no | 01:50 |
| lahwran | how do I share an internet connection with iptables again? | 01:51 |
| alzie | jinxzs: you should be able to install it with playonlinux. playonlinux is in the repos | 01:51 |
| dsa4fun | hello boys | 01:51 |
| jrib | !ics | lahwran | 01:51 |
| ubottu | lahwran: If you want to share the internet connection of your Ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php | 01:51 |
| dsa4fun | someone works with sphinx? | 01:51 |
| lahwran | jrib: iptables, please | 01:51 |
| lahwran | jrib: that is, directly to iptables | 01:52 |
| intrader | jrib, the steps discribed in https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates are pretty straightforward I wil try it and let you know if I run into problems. I would have to reinstall to get back though. | 01:52 |

| dooglus | any ideas for me? | 01:57 |
| princej88 | luis_arroyo: are you trying to untar the file using command line or no? | 01:57 |
| PiranhaP | princej88: There isn't necessarily a "primary" monitor/screen. You can either swap the video cables or, if you don't want to do that, then 1) run gconf-editor 2) navigate to /apps/panel/toplevels/top_panel_screen0 and change the 'monitor' setting to 0 or 1 (whichever it isn't) 3) do the same for bottom_panel_screen0 | 01:57 |
| luis_arroyo | no | 01:57 |
| luis_arroyo | double click | 01:57 |
| PiranhaP | princej88: There's probably an easier way, but that's the way I know | 01:58 |

| jrib | luis_arroyo: the sage site tells you the command to run (hint: --lzma). You also need to checksum to make sure your file isn't corrupted. | 02:08 |

Is there any way to remedy this? | 02:17 |

| luis_arroyo | tensorpudding tar --lzma xvf? | 02:18 |
| n8-bit | ChogyDan, thank you, their channel is #gnome right? | 02:18 |
| jellow | I can use -X but this displays to my screen not the host ssh server | 02:18 |
| ChogyDan | n8-bit: I think they are not on freenode | 02:18 |
| bodwick | MasterofPuppets and you tried system -> administration -> software sources -> other sources ? | 02:18 |
| dooglus | PiranhaP: I tried switching to a vc, but the screen stayed black | 02:18 |
| dooglus | didn't try switching back | 02:19 |
| tensorpudding | luis_arroyo: sorry, maybe you can't combine the old-style options with the gnu ones | 02:19 |
| psusi | MasterofPuppets, you probably added it with apt-add-repository, in which case it is in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 02:19 |
| psusi | MasterofPuppets, so find the file and delete it | 02:19 |
| tensorpudding | luis_arroyo: try tar --lzma -xvf file.tar.lzma | 02:19 |
| PiranhaP | dooglus: probably won't be any better | 02:19 |
| dooglus | PiranhaP: I just tried hibernating while a song was playing. now resuming to see if I can hear it still | 02:19 |

| dan_ | @gnurdux: installing the card all together. I've tried the backlist and deleteing default drivers and also the export .raw file method in windows | 02:24 |
| Gnurdux | what was the original problem? | 02:24 |
| Gnurdux | why did you need to start blacklisting stuff and exporting raw files? | 02:25 |
| xMff | leo: cache is used by linux to hold file contents in ram for faster access, it is freed as soon as programs needs this ram | 02:25 |
| leo | xMff can you give some example to prove it | 02:25 |
| xMff | leo: the linux kernel sources ;) | 02:25 |
| manlymatt83 | OK, so the alternate CD install failed, but for some reason it had installed enough that I could partially boot. So I modified /etc/apt/sources.list, am installing ubuntu-desktop, am HOPING that will make it so when I reboot I can access the USB cd creator tool, I'll grab the 10.04 ISO, and install over the USB stick, then re-install. *sigh* | 02:25 |
| manlymatt83 | I need a new CDROM - can't wait for it to arrive Thursday | 02:25 |

| leo | xMff oh my god that's impossible for now | 02:26 |
| ChogyDan | manlymatt83: you can also install ubuntu-desktop^ | 02:26 |

| manlymatt83 | ChogyDan: I am. I did "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" | 02:27 |
| dan_ | i researched it and found 2 methods to install the card | 02:27 |
| manlymatt83 | but since my CDROM had failed, I needed to switch sources.list to the internet | 02:27 |

| manlymatt83 | oh. What's ubuntu-desktop with the carrot? | 02:27 |
| leo | xMff maybe ,that's the only right way to understand cache and buffer clearly | 02:27 |
| Gnurdux | dan_, this is on a laptop? | 02:27 |
| ChogyDan | manlymatt83: it is the task | 02:28 |
| dan_ | uluga.ubuntuforums.o rg/showthread.php?p=9820917 | 02:28 |
| dan_ | yes its a laptop | 02:28 |
| xMff | leo: can't think of an easy way to test it. You'll notice it when running "ls" or "find" on a directly with like 10.000 files, the first time takes some time, subsequent accesses are way faster | 02:28 |
| dan_ | post number two is the backlist method | 02:28 |
| Gnurdux | ok | 02:28 |
| Gnurdux | reading | 02:28 |

| dan_ | forum.notebookreview.co m/5820189-post2517.html | 02:28 |
| leo | xMff yeah i got it | 02:28 |
| dan_ | that is the EDID raw export method | 02:28 |
| Gnurdux | your links are getting corrupted i think | 02:28 |
| leo | xMff that's the buffer | 02:29 |
| Gnurdux | i cant get the first | 02:29 |
| leo | xMff cache | 02:29 |
| dan_ | you cant view the first website? | 02:29 |
| Gnurdux | i can't because something is wrong with the link | 02:29 |
| xMff | leo: the cache. buffers are used to aggregate data preio to writing to the target or after reading from it | 02:29 |

| Gnurdux | got it, thanks | 02:30 |
| manlymatt83 | Or since 10.04 is LTS it won't be? | 02:30 |

| Gnea | I've tried following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptCdrom but it doesn't work, I can't get the system to see it when I apt-get update, why not? | 02:30 |
| Gnea | I'm using a USB stick in place of a cdrom with an Ubuntu image on it | 02:31 |
| xMff | leo: from userspace? thats hard. it's the kernels business to handle that, you usually do not need to worry about it | 02:31 |
| dan_ | I have the latest 64 bit supported nvidia driver and also the raw file already ready to go... just cant get either method to work correctly | 02:31 |
| Gnurdux | so the only problem atm is the messed up resolution? | 02:31 |
| dan_ | yeah | 02:31 |
| dan_ | and the speakers not working | 02:31 |

| leo | xMff maybe you can give me some advice to help understand them , web info or some book | 02:32 |
| dan_ | wireless, bluetooth, blu-ray, mem reader all work great so far | 02:32 |
| leo | xMff i'll check it by myself | 02:32 |
| ChogyDan | Gnea: what are you trying to do? | 02:32 |
| Gnea | ChogyDan: finish installing a system | 02:33 |
| leo | xMff about this point ,i find myself a beginner | 02:33 |
| Gnea | need to get wireless working on it. in order to do that, I need to install gcc and whatnot. can't do it without doing it off the usb drive. | 02:33 |
| ChogyDan | Gnea: did the install get interrupted or something? | 02:33 |
| manlymatt83 | dan_: what version? | 02:33 |
| Gnurdux | dan_, have you tried manually setting the resolution? | 02:33 |
| dan_ | 10.04 | 02:33 |
| dan_ | 64 bit lts | 02:34 |
| Gnurdux | also, is the nvidia driver running atm? | 02:34 |
| Gnurdux | like, can you pastebin glxinfo> | 02:34 |
| dan_ | and yes ive done the res manually and it fixes the res but i still cant see half the screen | 02:34 |
| Gnea | ChogyDan: no, I'm stuck with wireless and the wireless card has a driver that's not in the repositories. I can get it transferred over just fine, I just can't compile it. | 02:34 |
| dan_ | @gnurdux: I have no idea | 02:34 |
| Gnea | ChogyDan: I could compile it if I could get apt-cdrom to work, but it doesn't work. | 02:34 |
| dan_ | elaborate? | 02:34 |
| Gnurdux | dan_, type glxinfo in a terminal, and paste the results to http://pastebin.org/ | 02:34 |
| Gnurdux | that will give us a link, which you can type in this channel | 02:35 |
| ChogyDan | Gnea: what do you want apt-cdrom to do? transfer over some packages? | 02:35 |
| llvllonk | Hi, I have a printer hooked into a netgear PS101 connected thru the network... I cannot seem to connect to it using the command line "lpadmin" ...it states "Unable to connect to server: connection refused." | 02:35 |
| dan_ | downloading now | 02:35 |
| leo | xMff . it is so hard task for me to explore the kernel source code, i tried but failed ,just wait to try agian later | 02:36 |
| Gnurdux | dan_, downloading? | 02:36 |
| Gnea | ChogyDan: perhaps you don't know how to read what I'm saying, I'm being as blunt as I can here. It's extremely simple, there's no way to mis-interpret it: I have a cdrom image on a usb device, I installed the system using said usb jumpdrive. the usb jumpdrive is effectively a cdrom, according to the system. I can mount it to /cdrom or /media/cdrom, but apt-cdrom won't pick it up and use it in /etc/apt/sources.list | 02:36 |
| xMff | leo: google for linux memory management, linux buffer cache etc., there's plenty of material | 02:37 |
| Gnea | ChogyDan: sorry if I seem curt, I'm very frustrated at this point. | 02:37 |
| xuekan | what is the indentity of a high-level linuxer? | 02:38 |
| ChogyDan | Gnea: no prob, sorry it isn't working for you | 02:38 |
| Gnea | xuekan: a what? | 02:38 |
| dan__ | gnurdux sorry froze up had to reboot | 02:38 |
| Gnea | ChogyDan: so you don't know how to help fix it? | 02:38 |
| xuekan | a high-level linux user. | 02:38 |
| dan__ | probably from all the open windows i couldnt close because I cant see the bottom of my screen | 02:38 |
| Gnea | what is 'high-level' mean? | 02:38 |
| Gnea | *does | 02:38 |

| ChogyDan | Gnea: no, I thought you might be looking for a livecd chroot or something. Is there an error message? | 02:39 |
| manlymatt83 | Does 10.04 allow you to update to 10.10 in 19 days? | 02:39 |
| manlymatt83 | or will a clean install be recommended? | 02:39 |
| leo | xMff thks i'll | 02:39 |
| Gnea | ChogyDan: no error message, it just flat-out doesn't add it to the sources.list | 02:39 |
| Counterspell | I just want to list the IP addresses accessing me at what ports, how can I do this? | 02:39 |
| Gnea | Counterspell: netstat -nap | 02:39 |

| Counterspell | Gnea, thanks | 02:39 |
| Gnea | Counterspell: might need sudo | 02:40 |
| manlymatt83 | coz_: I wonder if it'd be better to just do 10.10 now since I'm doing a clean install tonight. I don't need 100% stability. | 02:40 |
| Gnea | ChogyDan: anyway, thanks for trying | 02:40 |
| manlymatt83 | Are there major benefits in 10.10 that aren't in 10.04? | 02:40 |
| Mortchek | Anybody know how to get Getting Things GNOME to recognize tasks from another machine? I copied ~/.config/gtg over but gtg seems to be ignoring it. | 02:40 |

| coz_ | manlymatt83, mm you mean update now? | 02:41 |
| ChogyDan | Gnea: fwiw, you could try the !offline factoid, and just download the packages you need to the usb drive, and install that way | 02:41 |
| dan__ | Gnurdux: Did the link work okay? | 02:41 |

| Gnea | !offline | 02:42 |
| ubottu | If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. Alternatively, try http://apt.alturl.com/ - See also !APTonCD | 02:42 |
| manlymatt83 | coz_: I figure since I have to do a clean install tonight (my drive is busted, I'm talking to you right now from a CLI only install), I'm wondering if I should do 10.10 now instead of doing 10.04 now and then 10.10 in a few weeks | 02:42 |
| coz_ | manlymatt83, oh I see... well that is another options of course :) yeah you can do that ... still .. i would say to clean install after release....<< however that is my opinion :) | 02:43 |
| Gnea | ChogyDan: that's kind of where it's headed, but not quite - it wouldn't matter if I put those files on a cd or usb at this point, since it can't even read it in the first place | 02:43 |

| manlymatt83 | coz_: ahhh, so even if I install beta now, clean install to -release? | 02:44 |
| Gnea | !repeat | Acidphase | 02:44 |
| ubottu | Acidphase: 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 | 02:44 |
| manlymatt83 | makes sense | 02:44 |
| Gnea | Acidphase: try waiting 10 minutes before doing that again | 02:44 |
| coz_ | manlymatt83, that is what I do ...may people dont do that so it is up to you | 02:44 |
| ChogyDan | Gnea: you don't need apt to install debs, you can just install directly with dpkg, or the graphical thing. The only challenge there is to specify the exact path. Even with the live cd, the packages are buried in the directory structure somewhere | 02:44 |
| NOMADICUS | Hello. I just reinstalled Ubuntu 10.10 and | 02:44 |
| derklempner | How can I start a program/service from the command line and NOT have it take control of the session? | 02:45 |
| dan__ | Can someone help me install my gt330m on 10.04 please | 02:45 |
| Gnea | ChogyDan: well yes, but that also opens up a can of worms | 02:45 |
| dan__ | Ive tried backlisting and also the raw file methods and cant get anything to wokr | 02:45 |

| primedeath | Hello, I am trying to find a program where a friend and I can share a laptop for note taking. I was wondering if there was a program where I can make a keyboard input to a certain screen. | 02:47 |
| Datz | Acidphase: where did you get the script? | 02:47 |
| NOMADICUS | Hello. I just reinstalled Ubuntu 10.10 and I saved my user profile from the previous install. Now all of the directories and files are owned by root. How can I change their ownership to the current profile? | 02:47 |
| primedeath | Two keyboards, one laptop, two screens. | 02:47 |
| derklempner | Mortchek, that isn't working for me when trying to start x11vnc on a remote machine (via SSH). | 02:47 |
| ChogyDan | Gnea: you might even be able to copy the debs to the cache directory, and then run the apt install commands | 02:47 |
| NOMADICUS | I tried starting Nautilus from termainal as root and change the ownership that way, but it dosen't stick. | 02:47 |
| primedeath | I was wondering if there was a Linux program to where I can have my external USB keyboard use a specific window and my laptop keyboard use a different one. | 02:48 |
| === kevdog_ is now known as kevdog | ||
| Acidphase | I'm not using a script I manually typed that in | 02:48 |
| Acidphase | lol | 02:48 |
| sujiths80 | Hi I want to try Ubuntu 10.10 but I want to know whether I can try this on my PC which installed with Ubuntu 10.04 and I dont want to take a risk.So is there any similar software like vmware so that I can install new ubuntu on that | 02:48 |
| derklempner | Mortchek, never mind, I did it again and hit enter after it started x11vnc and got my command prompt back and the service is still running. | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | sujiths80: vmware, or virtualbox. | 02:49 |
| sujiths80 | vmware can be installed in ubuntu also ? | 02:49 |
| Acidphase | however you can get sysinfo script right in the software center | 02:49 |
| Acidphase | for Xxhat | 02:49 |
| Acidphase | gah Xchat* | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | !vmware | 02:50 |
| ubottu | VMWare is not available in the Ubuntu repositories. Consider using !QEmu or !VirtualBox as alternatives. Instructions for installing VMWare manually are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware | 02:50 |
| Guest59613 | sujiths80: yes. but i recommend VirtualBox | 02:50 |
| Datz | Acidphase: what are you using to aggregate that system info? | 02:50 |
| primedeath | Anyone know a program that allows me to change where a USB keyboard inputs to? | 02:50 |
| xbonesx | can anyone recommend a good back utility? | 02:50 |
| xbonesx | back-up* | 02:50 |
| Dr_Willis | !backup | 02:51 |
| ubottu | There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 02:51 |
| Dr_Willis | xbonesx: depends on what and how you want to back things up | 02:51 |
| Acidphase | I'm using "sysinfo" the application and the CPU frequency Monitor applet for the panel | 02:51 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: What type of backing up? | 02:51 |
| xbonesx | preferably to iso of full system backup | 02:51 |
| Acidphase | in which the monitor is telling me that scaling is not supported | 02:51 |
| Gnea | ChogyDan: making some sort of progress... | 02:52 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: Something to make "snapshots" of your files? | 02:52 |
| scott_ino | NOMADICUS, what about usnig chmod? | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | xbonesx: mondo/mindi works that way. | 02:52 |
| manlymatt83 | Wow, I'm quite impressed with Lucid. | 02:52 |
| primedeath | No one? | 02:52 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: If you want a LiveCD, I'd recommend Clonezilla. It's all in command-line / ncurses though. | 02:52 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: But there's also a package you can install called partimage, which will do the same thing. | 02:52 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: I recommend the LiveCD route, since you don't want to be using the filesystem / partition you are making an image of. | 02:53 |
| NOMADICUS | scott_ino: Are you able to give me an example, I am not too experienced with chmod? | 02:53 |
| manlymatt83 | So I guess one final question - is anyone here running 10.10 and really happy about something they have in 10.10 that they didn't have in 10.04? I think I'm going to go ahead with the 10.04 install, but want to make sure I'm not missing anything major in 10.10 | 02:53 |
| shcherbak | speed - 10.10 is faster | 02:54 |
| primedeath | Anyone know a program that allows me to change where a USB keyboard (or anything for that matter | 02:54 |
| primedeath | inputs to. | 02:54 |
| Dr_Willis | manlymatt83: i havent noticed any MUST have features yet... | 02:54 |
| scott_ino | NOMADICUS, chmod deals with with file permissions, however, I don't know how youd actuall speficy the actual user.. but sure it can be done | 02:54 |
| scott_ino | oh nice.. NOMADICUS apparently it can be done | 02:55 |
| xbonesx | flan_suse: all i can find is a package for the documentation for partimage...??? | 02:55 |
| NOMADICUS | xbonesx: I am looking at man chmod right now. | 02:55 |
| scott_ino | NOMADICUS, check the wiki it gives good examples too ;) | 02:55 |
| Guest59613 | manlymatt83: id you don't mind minor bugs. I'd go with 10.10. I'm installing 10.10 over 10.04 right as I speak. | 02:55 |
| manlymatt83 | Dr_Willis: OK, thanks :) 10.04 seems a LOT faster on my old T42 than 9.04.... so I figured perhaps 10.10 would be even faster. | 02:55 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: Which version of Ubuntu? | 02:56 |
| xbonesx | flan_suse: 10.04 | 02:56 |
| manlymatt83 | Is there a site somewhere that lists the main features of 10.10 and how they differ from 10.04? | 02:56 |
| xbonesx | NOMADICUS: what? | 02:56 |
| Guest59613 | I have 353 GB to install Ubuntu 10.10 on. How much should I allocate to swap space? Is 5 GB enough? | 02:56 |
| xbonesx | NOMADICUS: plz use my name so i know you talking tome | 02:56 |
| xbonesx | to me* | 02:56 |
| manlymatt83 | I'm actually trying to make the start up disk using the start up disk util and it keeps saying "Failed to install bootloader" | 02:57 |
| NOMADICUS | scott_ino: xbonesx: that message was for scott. | 02:57 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: Hm, it should be there. One second. | 02:57 |
| alzie | Guest59613: usually swap space is slightly more than your RAM | 02:58 |
| scott_ino | NOMADICUS, you need to use chown sorry, not chmod.. although you might have to do both actually if you aid their owner was root and the permissions got changed | 02:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest59613: and your ram is how much? | 02:58 |
| xbonesx | flan_suse: k thanks | 02:58 |
| manlymatt83 | Is there another method of creating a USB Ubuntu install other than using the start up creator? Mine's just saying it can't install it. | 02:59 |
| KipMacy | i use unetbootin | 02:59 |
| KipMacy | are you in windows or ubuntu ? | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | manlymatt83: the pendrivelinux web site has several tools and scripts and other things to do it.. or use unetbootin, or other related tools | 02:59 |
| Guest59613 | Dr_Willis: 1.75 GB. Is the higher amount of swap space the better? Is it okay to have 4 GB swap space? | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | manlymatt83: odd that the Ubuntu tool isent working. | 02:59 |
| Guest59613 | I have 1.75 GB RAM | 03:00 |
| primedeath | Anyone know a program that allows me to change where a USB keyboard inputs to? | 03:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest59613: 4gb may be overkill if its never used. but it wont hurt. | 03:00 |
| Dr_Willis | primedeath: input from where to where exactly? | 03:00 |
| manlymatt83 | Dr_Willis: it's letting me "erase it", and then I see it mounts it on the desktop and says "4.1 GB File system", but when I click make disk, it just says it can't | 03:00 |
| primedeath | Dr_Willis, I have a USB Keyboard that I want to input into a specific program. Open Office Word. | 03:00 |
| Dr_Willis | manlymatt83: you need to tell it to install to (for example) /dev/sdd1 not /dev/sdd i noticed. Its easy to get confused in how the dialog works | 03:00 |
| primedeath | Then I want my laptop keyboard to input into the active window. | 03:00 |
| Datz | Is apt-get going to be replaced with aptitude eventually? | 03:00 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: apt-get update | 03:01 |
| xbonesx | ok | 03:01 |
| primedeath | Dr_Willis, is this possible? | 03:01 |
| Dr_Willis | primedeath: you want 2 keyboards to be inputing to 2 different windows you mean? | 03:01 |
| primedeath | Yes. | 03:01 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: Sorry, actually: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-cache search partimage | 03:01 |
| Guest59613 | Dr_Willis: So with 4 GB Im plenty safe then right? How much swap space does Ubuntu give by defualt? | 03:01 |
| primedeath | Dr_Willis, is that possible? | 03:01 |
| scott_ino | Guest37232, usually 2xram | 03:01 |
| sujiths80 | I am intrested in involving Ubuntu testing... | 03:02 |
| trusol | i got netbook remix running on a hp mini... runs great! videos and media runs much better than win7 | 03:02 |
| xbonesx | flan_suse: whats the && mean in the code? | 03:02 |
| Dr_Willis | primedeath: not that ive ever seen. You can set up 2 X displays and have one keyboard for each.. but thats a bit complex also | 03:02 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: It means to start the next command after the first one finishes. | 03:02 |
| primedeath | Damn. It's for note taking. I want him to input into an inactive window. | 03:02 |
| xbonesx | ok kool that will come in handy | 03:02 |
| primedeath | While I use the active window. | 03:02 |
| trusol | && means run the next if the 1st one is OK | 03:03 |
| Gnea | ChogyDan: wireless driver is now compiling. | 03:03 |

| flan_suse | sujiths80: Yup. | 03:04 |
| trusol | the netbook install guide is a bit off.. the image wouldn't work on my usb... had to install grub on the usb to get it to boot | 03:04 |
| flan_suse | sujiths80: Won't matter what the host or guest is. | 03:04 |
| Gnea | sujiths80: why couldn't you? | 03:04 |
| s3a | how do i make my first page not follow the numbering in openoffice.org? | 03:05 |
| s3a | writer | 03:05 |
| s3a | (cover page) | 03:05 |
| flan_suse | sujiths80: VirtualBox allows that portability. You can even take your guest OS and copy it over to a new computer with a different OS and STILL run it the same way under VirtualBox. | 03:05 |
| Dr_Willis | primedeath: 2 people sitting at the same pc. shareing the same monitor... thats going to be hard.. now you CAN take 1 pc and 2 monitors/keyboards/mice and have 2 X 'sessions' going as if it were 2 pc's | 03:05 |
| s3a | I tried clicking format => page => Organizer => Next style => First page when having the header highlighted but it makes the page number of the second page dissapear. The same thing happens whether I highlight the first page's header or the second's | 03:05 |
| primedeath | Dr_Willis, aye. I know that. | 03:05 |
| Sterist | what's the biggest of the additions in 10.10? | 03:05 |
| Sterist | anyone know | 03:05 |
| trism | pksadiq: if you're using ibus, ctrl+space by default, you can configure it in System/Preferences/Ibus Preferences | 03:06 |
| scott_ino | Sterist, they introduced a new multi-touch framework which is allegedly all the rage | 03:06 |
| pksadiq | k, let me try | 03:06 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: Any luck? | 03:06 |
| Sterist | as in mouse pad multi touch? | 03:07 |
| scott_ino | Sterist, yes, primarily building a new API for applications to utilize multi-touch | 03:07 |
| Dr_Willis | scott_ino: i cant even stand it when my touchpad has tap to click.. :) i bet i will be rageing at multitouch... | 03:07 |
| scott_ino | Dr_Willis, I'm one of those people too :) | 03:07 |
| xbonesx | flan_suse: only thing that came up was 'partimage-doc - Partition Image User Documentation' | 03:07 |
| Sterist | i LOVE click tap | 03:08 |
| scott_ino | but... if you have disable touchpad while typing im usually ok | 03:08 |
| FunkyDude | does anyone know how to get mod_rewrite to work after installing apache2 ? | 03:08 |
| Datz | Acidphase: strange.. at least it's working now :) | 03:08 |
| Sterist | i wish the "mouse buttons" werent on my laptop and just a larger mouse pad | 03:08 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: What if you open up Synaptic package manager and check which repositories are enabled? | 03:08 |
| manlymatt83 | Dr_Willis: Yeah, I tried that =( | 03:09 |
| victorgpserrao | anyone using jolicloud here? | 03:09 |
| Sterist | so... besides multi touch | 03:09 |
| pksadiq | !ibus | 03:09 |

| flan_suse | xbonesx: That's all of them? | 03:12 |
| rewq | well, I accidentally mentioned the word ubuntu. | 03:12 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: Oh my bad, not 3rd-party software. | 03:12 |
| xbonesx | flan_suse: ? | 03:12 |

| Sterist | can anyone remember which wiki page had the graph of the life times of ubuntu ruleases? | 03:12 |

| Sterist | from development to end of life | 03:13 |

| h00k | flan_suse: good question, I'm not sure. | 03:17 |
| st__ | s3a, because that page style for the rest of doc has no # on 1st page option? | 03:17 |

| steves | I have a problem with creating an array. After a reboot the box thinks one of the drives doesn't have a superblock. I created the array; waited until /proc/mdstat said 100%; formatted the drive; did mdadm --detail --scan > /etc/mdadm.conf ; and rebooted. When the box rebooted the md0 device wasn't created. Any suggestions? | 03:19 |
| st__ | the style for 2nd and subsequent pages probably has "no page # on first page" rule | 03:19 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: Something is odd... | 03:20 |
| xbonesx | flan_suse: lol your telling me | 03:20 |
| flan_suse | Anyone else see the partimage package in their package manager? | 03:20 |
| flan_suse | For 10.04, that is... | 03:20 |

| MasterofPuppets | Hey guys, I downloaded a GDM theme but I'm not sure how to apply it; advice? | 03:20 |

| guccipilot | I upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 today and it doesn't boot ino ubuntu | 03:21 |
| guccipilot | I get errors | 03:21 |

| ubottu | Maverick Meerkat is the codename for Ubuntu 10.10, due October 2010 - Maverick is NOT released and NOT Stable, discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 03:21 |
| flan_suse | scott_ino: That can't be right... | 03:21 |
| guccipilot | I get a codec 0 is not valid | 03:21 |
| h00k | guccipilot: /join #ubuntu+1 | 03:21 |
| xbonesx | guccipilot: whats the hype about 10.10 anyways??? | 03:21 |
| flan_suse | scott_ino: partimage is supposedly in the universe repo for 10.04. | 03:21 |
| guccipilot | Thanks hook | 03:21 |
| flan_suse | scott_ino: xbonesx is having the same problem: only partimage-doc | 03:21 |
| scott_ino | flan_suse, updating... let's see | 03:22 |
| scott_ino | but that's all im seeing | 03:22 |
| xbonesx | flan_suse: ill chack the config file to make sure its in their... | 03:22 |
| flan_suse | scott_ino: I had him refresh his packages too. | 03:22 |
| steves | I can re-add the drive, but am not sure why md0 doesn't start automatically | 03:22 |
| jimdagem | is there a problem with the Ubuntu repos right now? | 03:22 |
| scott_ino | flan_suse, did tey change the package name | 03:22 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: Your repos are all in order. | 03:22 |
| flan_suse | scott_ino: Nope. It's called: partimage | 03:22 |
| jimdagem | I'm getting a 404 when I try to install something. | 03:22 |
| flan_suse | OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! | 03:22 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: 64-bit? | 03:23 |
| scott_ino | flan_suse, that's all im getting too... so... | 03:23 |
| scott_ino | im only using cli though | 03:23 |
| mobasher | jimdagem=}} that just means u're not connected to internet | 03:23 |
| flan_suse | scott_ino: 64-bit? | 03:23 |
| scott_ino | flan_suse, yes | 03:23 |
| flan_suse | scott_ino: That might be why... | 03:23 |
| xbonesx | flan_suse: yes | 03:24 |
| flan_suse | scott_ino: I only see an i386 package. | 03:24 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: Aha... | 03:24 |
| flan_suse | You're both on 64-bit, but I have 32-bit. | 03:24 |

| NOMADICUS | Hey, I'm back. I had to restart. I'm still trying to do chown. I have never used that. | 03:24 |
| scott_ino | flan_suse, perhaps there's a .deb out there somewhere or a ppa ? | 03:25 |
| flan_suse | scott_ino: Hm, not sure. It's a popular program though. | 03:25 |
| jesse_ | I recently attempted to rip a couple CDs to mp3 via rhythmbox (also tried sound juicer), but the tags aren't getting written. When I try re-tagging via rhythmbox, I get: | 03:25 |

| jesse_ | "Internal Gstreamer problem; file a bug" | 03:25 |

| jesse_ | and "unabled to create tag-writing elements" | 03:26 |
| scott_ino | ha wow wait wayyy old | 03:26 |
| scott_ino | flan_suse, i mean couldn't you use another tool for now like clonezilla or something | 03:26 |
| scott_ino | or have him use i mean | 03:26 |
| xbonesx | flan_suse: can you run a 32bit version of ubuntu on a 64bit system? | 03:26 |
| geoffmcc | NOMADICUS: chown -R | 03:26 |
| jesse_ | Any idea what problem this could be? | 03:26 |
| st__ | NOMADICUS, -R | 03:26 |
| flan_suse | scott_ino: I recommended Clonezilla, since it's a LiveCD. | 03:27 |
| scott_ino | flan_suse, i use it all the time it's wonderful | 03:27 |
| scott_ino | xbonesx, ty clonezilla | 03:27 |
| scott_ino | try | 03:27 |
| guccipilot | No1 is in ubuntu+1 so look like im sol | 03:27 |
| xbonesx | scott_ino: that will let me make a complete live cd out of my current system setup??? | 03:27 |
| st__ | xbonesx, try remastersys | 03:28 |
| scott_ino | xbonesx, live cd i don't know i wasn't sure what you were trying to do | 03:28 |
| scott_ino | but I don't see why not if you get the bootloader right | 03:28 |
| jon_high9000 | I am running a compaq presario pc which has currently karmic on it at the moment. i would like to upgrade to lucid but running into problems doing it. can anyone help? | 03:29 |
| Ubuntu | can you tell me how download the version of ubuntu laster | 03:29 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: You can technically run 32-bit apps under 64-bit, but I still would go the route of Clonezille, since you don't want to touch your current/active partition while it is in use. | 03:29 |
| guccipilot | It says since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to n upstart job you may also use the start(8) utility | 03:29 |
| manlymatt83 | Does unetbootin do anything differently than the start up disk creator inside Lucid? I was able to get unetbootin to make me a 10.04 bootable USB drive but couldn't get the start up util to work. Will the install be identical? Will there be anything different because I used unetbootin? | 03:29 |
| Sterist | USB booting is suicide by time | 03:30 |
| xbonesx | scott_ino: it would be kool if i could run a live cd that was already set up to my likings, would this clonezilla let me do that? | 03:30 |
| manlymatt83 | Sterist: My CDROM is broken | 03:31 |
| xbonesx | flan_suse: that last messege was meant for you | 03:31 |
| Sterist | manlymatt83 cheap external hdd?' | 03:31 |
| mIRC | hello | 03:31 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: Nope. Clonezilla is a specific appliance. | 03:31 |
| mIRC | how i do to install a program by ubuntu? | 03:31 |
| Sterist | mirc Ubuntu Software Center | 03:32 |
| manlymatt83 | Also, is there any difference between Ubuntu net install and Ubuntu alternate CD? I know the net install installs over the net, but I'm on a super fast network connection right now, so no issue there. But the live CD wasn't booting for me, while the alternate was.... does the net CD practice the same sort of install? | 03:32 |
| scott_ino | xbonesx, if you do the install on something like a usb thumb drive you can do exactly that because it can write all your settings | 03:32 |
| mIRC | after whati i have to do sterist? | 03:32 |
| mIRC | *what | 03:32 |
| Sterist | put the cursor in the top-right box and type in whatever you desire | 03:32 |
| Sterist | manlymatt83 have you adjusted your PC's BIOs to look for a CD at boot? | 03:33 |
| xbonesx | scott_ino and flan_suse: is there a way to set your system up the way you like it, then turn it into a iso that could be burnt to disc and used as a live cd? | 03:33 |
| manlymatt83 | Sterist: Yes. My CDROM is broken. Caputt. Don't have one. Ordered one, but it isn't here yet. | 03:33 |
| mIRC | sterist it is able for instal softwares in tar.gz? | 03:34 |
| mIRC | *istall | 03:34 |
| mIRC | *install | 03:34 |
| manlymatt83 | But still, even when I extract 10.04 live to a USB key drive, it won't work. The install craps out. | 03:34 |
| manlymatt83 | But when I use the alternate CD, it works fine | 03:34 |
| manlymatt83 | but the alternate CD doesn't let me install from the net, so I'm wondering if the net install is just as simple as the alternate CD (the text based installer, etc.) | 03:34 |
| manlymatt83 | I guess my question is this: what's the difference between the alternate CD and the netinstall CD? | 03:34 |
| Sterist | mirc i've been having trouble with that install method myself | 03:35 |

| hajmola | anyone here have any idea why Opera has weird kerning (letter spacings) on most websites? | 03:35 |
| Sterist | manlymatt83 since your CD drive is out, change the PC bios to look in this order #1 CD (for when you get the new one), #2 USB, and #3 internal HDD, then copy the ISO to a usb stick | 03:36 |
| Sterist | manlymatt83 the difference is alternate uses a different type of installer (usually for low spec computers) to do the main install. net install downloads minimal core files and gets the rest when you update | 03:37 |
| mouse | My grub list is getting pretty full and I always use the latest kernel anyways so how do I uninstall the old kernels? I've never had to do it before. | 03:37 |
| scott_ino | xbonesx, yes it is possible | 03:38 |
| d3s3rt3gl | could the good people of ubuntu help me (once again) with my web hosting issue? | 03:38 |
| xbonesx | scott_ino: could you also do an install from that disc afterwards? | 03:38 |
| ChogyDan | mouse: synaptic, remove old versions of linux-image-etc etc | 03:38 |
| xbonesx | scott_ino: brb | 03:38 |

| meowsus | im trying to copy a 250 gb tar.gz file from my desktop to an external drive and i keep getting an error saying that it cant copy due to a file splicing error due to the file size | 03:40 |
| Sterist | mouse funny.... i just did that literally 1 hour ago | 03:40 |
| manlymatt83 | Sterist: So I can use the built in unetbootin net install for 10.04 and it should work just fine? | 03:40 |
| manlymatt83 | to copy to 10.04? | 03:40 |
| meowsus | any ideas on what i can do? | 03:40 |
| Sterist | manlymatt83 well what OS are you using right now? | 03:41 |
| ChogyDan | meowsus: maybe try rsync | 03:41 |
| flan_suse | Night, I'm going to bed soon. | 03:41 |
| flan_suse | Long live Windows XP! | 03:41 |
| mouse | Sterist, Heh. Our linux installation's lifespans are growing so we must be getting good. | 03:41 |
| flan_suse | xbonesx: Check out Clonezilla when you can. It's what will fit the bill the best. | 03:41 |
| manlymatt83 | Sterist: 10.04, but it's a botched install | 03:42 |
| manlymatt83 | Sterist: I've got the alternate 10.04 install .iso downloaded, but I can't use the start up disk creator built into lucid - it isn't working | 03:42 |
| ChogyDan | manlymatt83: what happened to your install? I missed it | 03:43 |
| Sterist | manlymatt83 can you download qBitTorrent via software center and get the ISO? unetbootin should be a last resort of all | 03:43 |
| DevoJinx | hi all | 03:43 |
| DevoJinx | i have a widescreen lap top and i'm making trouble making the display the right size | 03:43 |
| gh0st | 've got the alternate 10.04 install .iso downloaded, but I can't use the start up disk creator built into lucid - it isn't working | 03:44 |
| manlymatt83 | ChogyDan: CDROM is bad, I had no OS on my box, and the live wouldn't boot. I installed FreeBSD earlier, used that to make a CD of Ubuntu-alternate, booted with that, the install worked for a little while, CDROM died again... but luckily, I had just enough installed to be able to boot (base OS was on, but no packages). apt-get install'd ubuntu-desktop, and booted into lucid. | 03:44 |
| manlymatt83 | Tried to make a new 10.04 USB stick though and it won't work. | 03:44 |
| hajmola | Devojinx, is it not showing the correct resolution in the Display preferences | 03:45 |
| ChogyDan | manlymatt83: any error message? | 03:45 |
| manlymatt83 | ChogyDan: "Could not install bootloader" | 03:45 |
| Sterist | mouse if you havent done it already, use the Software Center and type in "Linux Kernel Image" and remove all the older images except for the 2 most recent (incase the most recent goes rogue) | 03:45 |
| ChogyDan | manlymatt83: have you tried installing ubuntu-desktop^ with the ^ | 03:46 |
| gh0st | guys | 03:46 |
| mouse | Sterist, That's exactly what I'm doing. | 03:46 |
| gh0st | how do I find 0 days vulnerabilities in browsers | 03:46 |
| gh0st | like in google? | 03:46 |
| mouse | What does pae stand for anyways? | 03:46 |
| manlymatt83 | I want to reinstall 10.04 from scratch. I can't use the live CD, because my computer doesn't support it, so ieither need to get this alternate install working, or use unetbootin to make a new CD | 03:46 |
| manlymatt83 | errrr, usb | 03:46 |
| h00k | gh0st: that's not an Ubuntu specific question, also this isn't the type of question that is appropriate in the channel. | 03:46 |
| gh0st | oh | 03:47 |
| Sterist | mouse if you get a warning about something "not being included in an update" you can disregard it because that is only intended to warn about removing your most recent image | 03:47 |
| gh0st | coudl u recommend me a page about security please? | 03:47 |

| AbhiJit | xbonesx, you cant do that. you must need a .iso to do that | 04:05 |

| wilcal_ | I'm running the 2.6.34-020634-generic | 04:54 |
| unknown | bangfoo, I read somewhere that based on chip ver, broadcom decides to load wl or b43 . Is it really the case? or it`s possible to load what wl works with, in b43 ? | 04:54 |
| bangfoo | mbp: are you trying to compile the driver from scratch or somthing? | 04:54 |
| Datz | wilcal_: maybe it is a too current kernel... | 04:55 |
| manbullphoenix | see, it came with the driver source, and I've been banging on it to try and get it to build. Doesn't seem to want to do so. | 04:55 |
| dan_ | bdogg | 04:55 |
| bangfoo | unknown: perhaps there is a way to do some kind of alias, but i have not tried that one... | 04:55 |

| manbullphoenix | the firmware is a different animal | 04:56 |
| manlymatt83 | yeah!! :) I'm up and running! | 04:56 |
| bangfoo | mbp: so you need some function that isnt avaliable in a regular module? | 04:56 |
| samd | hey, is there a command to know which video driver im using ?? thanks in advance | 04:57 |
| wilcal_ | Datz, I also thought it might be an issue with my drive being encrypted and having issues. So I made a new non-encrypted user and same thing :/ | 04:57 |
| manlymatt83 | One final question: do most of you keep all the example folders when you do a new install of ubuntu? Such as Documents, Public, Music, Pictures, etc.? Or do you remove them and setup your own structure? | 04:57 |
| jerry_ | what it i reinstall the ubuntu from the website will it delete all of my files and stuff i have saved on my computer already | 04:57 |
| unknown | bangfoo, any trick to change interface type ? wl detects it as ethernet, while correct b43 will detect it az 80211 | 04:57 |
| Datz | wilcal_: too bad.. I don't personally know what you could de besides contacting ATI | 04:58 |
| bangfoo | unk: as i said, i havent tried that kind of voodoo before | 04:58 |
| wilcal_ | Datz, what about rolling back to an older kernel? | 04:58 |
| Datz | wilcal_: well that is certainly a possibility as well | 04:58 |
| Datz | wilcal_: might check driver requirements | 04:58 |
| HaPK_PerCar | I have a lil question... I installed some time ago the kubuntu-desktop package, but there doesn't seems to be an automatic way to update any of the application, or the desktop for that matter. Can anione help me here? | 04:59 |
| jerry_ | can anyone help me | 05:00 |
| manbullphoenix | bangfoo: to be perfectly honest, I'm flying by the seat of my pants here. I'm pretty sure I know which module it needs, just not quite how to incorporate it into the build | 05:00 |
| wilcal_ | Datz, it says it is compatible with 2.6.11 is that too far back for me to try? | 05:00 |
| manbullphoenix | I've got about half a clue how to build from source | 05:01 |
| bangfoo | mbp: so, are you doing some kind of ubuntu based stripped down build? the standard module does not work? | 05:01 |
| unknown | bangfoo, guess I`ll not find solution even here... thanks for your comments anyway | 05:01 |
| stevecoh1 | bangfoo - stevecoh1 back. sudo update-grub did not work. | 05:01 |

| advorak | howdy! I just ran 'apt-get install php5' and a2enmod'd php5, and uncommented the lines in php5.conf between the <ifmodule>'s to enable php in the userdir of public_html, and restarted apache .. but my apache still feeds my web browser .php files as html files (with the raw source) .. what might I be missing? :-) | 05:02 |
| manbullphoenix | cause IIRC that's just ubuntu with a different window manager, the underlying system is the same | 05:02 |
| advorak | I've gotten this working in the past ... :-) | 05:02 |
| bangfoo | stevecoh: sorry, i was pretty sure that grub just didnt know how to read the disk | 05:02 |
| Datz | wilcal_: yes, it would look that way. | 05:02 |
| wilcal_ | Datz, looks like 2.5.11 is from March 2005. oof | 05:02 |
| well_laid_lawn | !details | jerry_ | 05:02 |
| ubottu | jerry_: 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 ..." | 05:02 |
| stevecoh1 | It's all really weird. Clonezilla appears to have perfectly cloned things - the grub menu comes up - but the image will not load. It just dies with an error message. | 05:03 |
| Datz | wilcal_: yea, you are on 10.10 now? | 05:03 |
| Datz | or... | 05:03 |
| bangfoo | mbp: yep, i know the gig... | 05:03 |

| bangfoo | stevecoh: can you get the grub command line interface? | 05:04 |
| stevecoh1 | Ironically - I couldn't get sudo update-grub to work from the cdrom because I couldn't mount the disk. update-grup needs to see a boot partition. I could mount /boot but not / | 05:04 |

| Datz | wilcal_: you could, but I couldn't tell you whether there have been changes in the drivers that ubuntu has in the repos | 05:05 |
| bangfoo | stevecoh1, when grub comes up, does it have any options? | 05:05 |
| wilcal_ | Datz: well, I don't have too much to lose. | 05:05 |
| wilcal_ | Datz: I'm gonna give it a shot | 05:05 |
| Datz | wilcal_: I guess not | 05:05 |
| Datz | wilcal_: ok, good luck | 05:05 |
| stevecoh1 | i could type c to get the cli but I don't know what to do there. | 05:05 |

| jerry_ | is it any way i can get it to work on this | 05:08 |
| owner | PLEASE! | 05:08 |
| manbullphoenix | bangfoo: so to answer your question, no. I know which module it needs, it's in the makefile. I'm familiar with building something from source, I've just never needed kernel modules to do it before. | 05:08 |
| Datz | jerry_: not without some trouble. I suggest you research windows games running on WINE | 05:08 |

| foxe | DARUDE: I dunno, tbh, if you told me what you want to do i'd might be able to think of one off the top of my head | 05:09 |
| owner | well_laid_lawn that does not help because alsamixer does not see the devices I get when I type aplay -l | 05:10 |

| dan_ | I am using Ubuntu 10.04LTS 64bit. My problem is that using the current driver (not sure what it is) the resolution is 2048x1536. My GT330m card uses 1900x1200 resolution. I can switch to 1900x1200 resolution using my current driver but the same thing happens. And by same thing I mean the screen is cut off from about the date on the right, and on the bottom I cant even open minimized programs. Other people using the same model laptop ( | 05:42 |
| dan_ | Sony Vaio VPCF115FM) are having the same problems | 05:42 |
| boris_ | alguien que hable español jaaaja | 05:42 |
| jerry_ | cuz i installed ubuntu from a burned disc | 05:42 |
| histo | jerry_: however if you want to install the newest version from cd and keep your stuff create a seperate home | 05:42 |
| dan_ | The problem was apparently resolved with the 330m using two methods, both of which I have tried and have not been completely able to figure out. The first method is an older method, and requires a raw file be exported from windows. The info I used can be found here. | 05:42 |
| valerio | sly_f0x i have superblock error and magic number | 05:42 |

| DARUDE | I've always wondered what 'sudo' meant | 05:57 |
| well_laid_lawn | !sudo | 05:57 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli ) . Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 05:57 |
| valerio | valerio@valerio-desktop:~$ sudo gpart | 05:58 |
| valerio | sudo: gpart: command not found | 05:58 |
| valerio | valerio@valerio-desktop:~$ | 05:58 |
| well_laid_lawn | sly_f0x: gparted is a gui app so gksu is needed to run it not sudo | 05:58 |
| administrator | hello | 05:58 |
| administrator | are you body | 05:58 |
| === administrator is now known as Guest9121 | ||
| sly_f0x | well_laid_lawn: sudo launches it with root privs too | 05:59 |
| well_laid_lawn | !gksudo | sly_f0x | 05:59 |
| ubottu | sly_f0x: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 05:59 |

| eppa | 'lo, is there any way to make the scrolling on my magic mouse work? | 06:27 |
| eppa | by installing a package | 06:27 |
| juk | histo:and now says system start/stop links for script do not exist | 06:27 |
| histo | juk: something must have went gooffy with update-rc.d then | 06:28 |
| histo | yaaar: are you using lvm? | 06:28 |
| owner__ | pardon my ignorance but what do i do with this 'xorg.conf' ? | 06:28 |
| kelvinella | guys is there something exactly like adblock plus in ff in google chrome? | 06:28 |
| well_laid_lawn | owner__: copy it to a file in your home dir and then do sudo mv -v ./xorg.conf /etc/Xll/ then logout/login | 06:29 |
| histo | owner__: xorg.conf is pretty much depreciated now | 06:29 |
| yaaar | histo: certainly not on purpose...all i've done so far is install windows 7 on the first hard drive. i didn't see anything about raid anywhere in the bios. the second drive is empty best of my knowledge...but the installer's partitioner didn't show either drive so i went to gparted...and then on your suggestion disk util | 06:30 |
| eppa | also, how to make 'Expose' give me a hot corner to show the Desktop | 06:31 |

| well_laid_lawn | mackaber: fail :] | 06:31 |
| bullgard4 | Is it unnecessary to install the DEB program package uswsusp in a Thinkpad T43 computer because Thinkpad computers do use other programs to use the suspend facility available in the present Linux kernel? | 06:31 |

| darkside__ | needing help getting wifi to work under ubuntu 10.4 on asus eee pc 1500ha | 06:39 |
| darkside__ | i have installed the backports also still no wifi | 06:39 |
| histo | darkside__: system > admin > hardware drivers | 06:39 |
| ActionParsnip | darkside__: if you run: sudo lshw -C network ,one product line will identify the wireless chip. You can use it to find guides | 06:39 |
| yaaar | histo: i can...but i can also tell you by looking that it looks perfectly normal...both ntfs partitions show up on sda and the three linux partitions (boot/swap/root) show on sdb (the messages indicated that i got the types set and everything...it was mke2fs that failed | 06:40 |
| yaaar | histo: http://baconsnacks.com/fdisk.txt | 06:42 |
| ActionParsnip | darkside__: you sure its not a 1005HA? | 06:43 |
| darkside__ | it is 1500ha | 06:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Just checking :D | 06:44 |
| darkside__ | its ok lol | 06:44 |
| owner__ | well I'm having issues even with the simplest of tasks...I keep getting "mv: cannot stat"..... | 06:44 |
| leandroal | recently my package manager application updated my kernel img and after I restarted my computer, it is getting kernel panic... how can I rollback to the latest working kernel? | 06:44 |
| ActionParsnip | darkside__: what wireless chip does it use? | 06:44 |
| yaaar | histo: i also tried deleting the partitions on sdb and recreating/typing them old-school with cfdisk... | 06:44 |
| ActionParsnip | leandroal: hold shift at boot and choose the older kernel | 06:45 |
| darkside__ | AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter | 06:45 |
| owner__ | I am running terminal from my desktop, and, I think the etc/Xll is X(eleven) yes ? | 06:45 |
| bullgard4 | What is the source code file of the s2disk program? After '/usr/src$ sudo apt-get source uswsusp' I do not find a file s2disk.c, neither in /usr/src/suspend-0.8/ nor in /usr/src/uswsusp-0.8/ . | 06:45 |
| ActionParsnip | owner__: yes its X11. The X is capitalized too (important) | 06:46 |
| icarus-c | owner__, that usually means the source file is not accessible (not found or no read permission) | 06:46 |
| icarus-c | owner__, i mean mv: cannot stat | 06:46 |
| ActionParsnip | darkside__: seen this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Atheros/AR9285 | 06:46 |
| quiescens | bullgard4: apt-get source downloads to current directory as far as I remember | 06:47 |
| icarus-c | bullgard4, "locate s2disk" | 06:47 |
| owner__ | yep, I put the xorg file on my desktop and in the 'owner' folder and tried to execute from both locations...no luck | 06:48 |
| bullgard4 | quiescens: I know. If you will re-read my question you will find that I changed first to the /usr/src/ direcotry. | 06:48 |
| darkside__ | ActionParsnip, in gonna try that now | 06:48 |
| yaaar | histo: dmsetup shows that sil_<hex> device... | 06:48 |
| owner__ | here's what I entered "sudo mv -v /owner-desktop/xorg.conf /etc/X11/" | 06:49 |
| ActionParsnip | darkside__: I seem to remember seeing an article that there was a deb to make the ath9k driver (which that uses) | 06:49 |
| deucepont | s | 06:49 |
| bullgard4 | icarus-c: Hehe. This obtains the executable file and the manpage. | 06:49 |
| ActionParsnip | owner__: sudo mv /home/$USER/Desktop/xorg.conf /etc/X11 ,not do it? Or am I reading it wrong? | 06:50 |
| darkside__ | ActionParsnip, yea i had 10.4 recently on here wifi worked perfect idk what happend this time | 06:50 |
| leandroal | ActionParsnip, thank you. It worked greatly! | 06:50 |
| icarus-c | bullgard4, maybe you have to run "updatedb" before hand. | 06:50 |
| owner__ | I'll try again....1 min plz | 06:50 |
| leandroal | ActionParsnip, how can I manage the list of bootable kernels in order to remove the broken one from the list? | 06:50 |
| ActionParsnip | leandroal: no worries duder. Glad you got the gold | 06:50 |
| bullgard4 | icarus-c: Hehe. I did. | 06:50 |
| quiescens | bullgard4: the source for s2disk will be in your uswsusp-0.8 | 06:51 |
| sly_f0x | got my server all working up to par again | 06:51 |
| sly_f0x | someone the mdadm conf got borked | 06:51 |
| sly_f0x | well its fixed now | 06:51 |
| ActionParsnip | leandroal: if you run: uname -a ,you can see the current kernel. If you run: dpkg -l | grep linux-image-2 ,you will see the installed kernels | 06:51 |
| yaaar | histo: oh yeah! did 'dmsetup remove_all' and now gparted formats no prob | 06:51 |
| bullgard4 | quiescens: And my question is: "What is its filename?" There are 64 files in my uswsusp-0.8. | 06:52 |
| quiescens | bullgard4: it may not be named s2disk.c but you can't exactly rely on that either way because a lot of packages will have multiple source files to make any given binary, you can have a look at the makefiles to see which files make which binaries | 06:52 |
| ActionParsnip | leandroal: remove the kerne(s) you don't want. You will gain about 120mb per kernel in disk space | 06:52 |
| owner__ | do I need the -v switch in the move statement? | 06:52 |
| ActionParsnip | owner__: if its a single file copy I can't see it needing anything fancy | 06:53 |
| yaaar | histo: although now i'm suddenly wondering if this means i could stripe those disks and still have windows and linux play nice with them... | 06:53 |
| bullgard4 | quiescens: Yes, a good idea. I will have a look into the makefile. | 06:53 |
| yaaar | that would rule | 06:53 |
| seca | could anyone tell me if it is possible to use transmission webUI on ubuntu server, what package is involved and what daemon to start? | 06:53 |
| quiescens | bullgard4: it looks like suspend.c is probably the file of interest, but I haven't had much of a look at it | 06:53 |
| ActionParsnip | darkside__: may help. Talks about out of the box: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/521967 | 06:54 |
| yaaar | aw man...i really thought i had it....but the installer still doesn't show anything at all on sda or sdb | 06:55 |
| ActionParsnip | seca: I use it. Its great | 06:55 |
| yaaar | or, rather, the lnstaller doesn't admit to the existence of sda or sdb | 06:55 |
| owner__ | no matter where I set the path, same error "mv: cannot stat `/home/owner/desktop/xorg.conf': No such file or directory" | 06:55 |

| ActionParsnip | leandroal: sudo update-grub | 06:59 |
| yaaar | is there a way to run the installer and point it at a particular drive? | 06:59 |
| ActionParsnip | seca: you need to edit settings.json for the config. You MUST stop the service to edit it or the file won't change | 06:59 |

| leandroal | ActionParsnip, ok, it worked, but I could see that the broken kernel is still there, and when I removed the old kernels I didn't find it in the list... the kernel is 2.6.32.15+drm33.5... how to remove this one? it did not show in the list of dpkg -l | grep linux-image-2 | 07:01 |
| owner__ | it moved the file to the X11 directory, now . . . . | 07:02 |
| ActionParsnip | leandroal: if you search software centre you can remove it there too | 07:02 |

| owner__ | once the xorg.conf is moved to the X11 dir, how do I execute/install it? | 07:06 |
| Flannel | FunkyDude: Use sftp instead. Just install openssh-server and configure your FTP client to use sftp instead. | 07:06 |
| ActionParsnip | HowDoI: it can. Just add a command to your login or boot items | 07:06 |
| ActionParsnip | owner__: restart x server and it will be read | 07:06 |
| seca | Thanks againg ActionParsnip , I've got it running through an ssh tunnel and it seems to be working beautifully. | 07:06 |
| ActionParsnip | seca: sweet. Glad you got the gold | 07:06 |
| HowDoI | ActionParsnip, is NTP installed by default? | 07:06 |
| FunkyDude | Flannel, is openssh-server different from apache? I have apache2 installed | 07:06 |
| Flannel | ActionParsnip, HowDoI: it does ntpdate every time you boot, but setting up ntpd might be a better solution overall: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime#Time%20Synchronization%20using%20NTP | 07:07 |
| ActionParsnip | HowDoI: there's an ntp client. I believe if you go to time settings you can tell the OS to use ntp. | 07:07 |
| owner__ | oh very new here, how do I restart x servr ? | 07:07 |
| quiescens | howdoi: the preferred way is actually via system -> administration -> time and date, configuration, keep synchronised | 07:07 |
| Flannel | FunkyDude: It is. Apache is an HTTP server, openssh is well, a ssh server. | 07:07 |
| coafcv | Flannel: ? | 07:07 |
| quiescens | howdoi: it will ask to install ntp stuff | 07:07 |
| B|ackPanther | Hi, i have a problem with video4linux, where can a find a sample program that uses video4linux and processes the data into RGB image ? | 07:07 |
| ActionParsnip | owner__: reboot or press ALT+K+PrintScreen | 07:07 |
| Flannel | coafcv: Do a "refresh" and then "mark all upgrades", yes. | 07:08 |
| Flannel | coafcv: If nothing is marked after that, then you're up to date. | 07:08 |
| HowDoI | Ahh, that method is different from right clicking the time/date on the panel | 07:08 |
| coafcv | Flannel: I did and nothing is marked, but how can I be up to date, if the last update gave me like a dozen errors. | 07:08 |
| coafcv | Flannel: I do not want to have a gaping security hole in my system. | 07:08 |
| quiescens | howdoi: its mostly because the time/date panel thingy is user level rather than system level | 07:08 |
| FunkyDude | Flannel, which ftp client are you talking about? I think it's something built into the wordpress code, that it's using ftp to install plugins and such | 07:09 |
| HowDoI | So why isn't automatic time update done by default? | 07:09 |
| Flannel | coafcv: Go to a terminal, and run these commands, and pastebin the output (paste.ubuntu.com): sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 07:09 |
| quiescens | howdoi: I don't know for sure, i know it used to be in the past at some point so I'm guessing some people didn't like it or something | 07:09 |
| ActionParsnip | HowDoI: I guess it'd freak users if ntp started going mental and setting the time to something weird | 07:09 |
| ActionParsnip | I guess | 07:10 |
| HowDoI | I was actually rather upset that my computer was off by 3 minutes after 30 days of uptime. I expect more from the Ubuntu OS. Not that complaining about it here helps. Thanks! | 07:10 |

| ActionParsnip | lotus-blade: sudo fdisk -l | 07:11 |
| logan_wolf | Hi | 07:11 |
| Flannel | FunkyDude: most FTP clients also speak SFTP. If you're going through wordpress somehow (isn't that serverside?) then it might not work | 07:11 |
| ActionParsnip | lotus-blade: or: sudo lshw -C drive; sudo lshw -C disk | 07:11 |
| lotus-blade | that will display the /dev/sda1 and so forth? | 07:11 |
| kulas_27 | how do we see all the devices installed? | 07:12 |
| ActionParsnip | lotus-blade: the fdisk command will | 07:12 |
| FunkyDude | ya, wordpress is server-side (running on my machine locally), and there's an interface that lets you browse/install plugins, it then downloads and installs them, but requires ftp credentials | 07:12 |
| ActionParsnip | lotus-blade: if you want to see the physical devices then the lshw will show that | 07:12 |
| kulas_27 | how do we see all the devices installed on your system? | 07:13 |
| leandroal | ActionParsnip... have setup everything now... thanks a lot, man! | 07:13 |

| * TELL0 is confuse | 07:20 | |
| sidh_ | which library used for gtk/mysql | 07:20 |

| andycc | sidh_: you'll need a mysql binding for your programming language of choice. | 07:23 |
| ActionParsnip | sidh_: the guys in #sql may know | 07:23 |
| P0rnStar | hi | 07:23 |

| andycc | sidh_: what programming language are you using? | 07:24 |
| sidh_ | gtk | 07:24 |
| sidh_ | gtk/c | 07:25 |
| rww | so C. GTK isn't a programming language. | 07:25 |
| andycc | sidh_: so C. | 07:25 |
| sidh_ | yes | 07:25 |
| sidh_ | c with gtk library | 07:25 |
| ActionParsnip | P0rnStar: I cant , running android here :) | 07:25 |
| andycc | sidh_: maybe the guys in ##c can help you. | 07:25 |
| sidh_ | ok | 07:25 |
| lotus-blade | it is saying that they are ext3, but windows can not read that unless the conrtoller was running linux? | 07:26 |
| Krishnandu | P0rnStar: I can...but what to test...?? | 07:26 |
| ActionParsnip | lotus-blade: you can use www.fs-driver.org | 07:26 |
| cshawn | i think im officially divorced to windows | 07:27 |
| kelvinella | how to set ff as my default browser? | 07:27 |
| * lorenzosu is away: Away | 07:27 | |
| ActionParsnip | lotus-blade: if the system is sharing the data on the partitions then yes the OS will need to be *nix or *bsd | 07:27 |
| cshawn | whats a good flash client i can use on joli cloud | 07:28 |
| ActionParsnip | kelvinella: system -> prefs -> default apps | 07:28 |
| andycc | kelvinella: ff has an option for that. You can also use System > Preferences > Preferred Applications | 07:28 |
| andycc | cshawn: Adobe Flash? | 07:28 |
| tensorpudding | what is jolicloud? | 07:28 |
| cshawn | does it work with joli? | 07:28 |
| kelvinella | thanks | 07:28 |
| P0rnStar | bah im trying to open it in browser now... and sending policy request | 07:28 |
| tensorpudding | and what does it have to do with ubuntu? | 07:28 |
| ActionParsnip | tensorpudding: another spinoff distro | 07:28 |
| andycc | cshawn: of course, Joli is based on Ubuntu. | 07:28 |
| P0rnStar | was sending it before | 07:28 |
| P0rnStar | if not in browser | 07:28 |
| cshawn | joli cloud is based off ubuntu | 07:28 |
| lotus-blade | so fs-driver should see the drive in windows? | 07:29 |
| ActionParsnip | cshawn: jolicloud isn't supported here | 07:29 |
| cshawn | ill get my joli ass out then | 07:29 |
| andycc | cshawn: #jolicloud can help you. | 07:29 |

| frobisher | what is the command to partion drive from terminal? | 07:31 |
| andycc | hasenj: yes, should be possible using xbindkeys or something. | 07:31 |
| tensorpudding | frobisher: you can partition a drive using cfdisk | 07:31 |
| ActionParsnip | frobisher: sudo fdisk /dev/diskname | 07:31 |

| andycc | shatly: what are you trying to do, exactly? | 07:44 |
| dancek | CornishPasty, this seems similar: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=490547 | 07:45 |
| shatly | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/URq7dwFG | 07:45 |
| shatly | is new one | 07:45 |
| shatly | i am trying to figure out what hardrive has ubuntu on it as he has 3 installed | 07:45 |
| moob | Does anyone know of a good guide to encrypt an Amazon EC2 ami? | 07:45 |
| shatly | and /dev/loop0 is very unhelpfull | 07:45 |
| dancek | CornishPasty, you might want to try changing the cableetc | 07:46 |
| CornishPasty | dancek: strangely though Windows 7 x86_64 has no issues loading every HDD, which leads me to believe it's an issue with Ubuntu, not the drive/cable? | 07:46 |
| andycc | shatly: so go hunting for wubi/, ubuntu/ or whatever on all his drives. | 07:46 |
| shatly | lucas@ubuntu:/mnt/tmp5$ find -L /mnt/ -name 'fstab' | 07:47 |
| shatly | /mnt/tmp5/cygwin/etc/fstab | 07:47 |
| CornishPasty | However, I will try checking the cables, is there anything I should look for or whatever, dancek? | 07:47 |
| shatly | andycc: ^^ did that =P | 07:47 |
| shatly | well for fstab | 07:47 |
| shatly | and that is cygwin so a emulator not ubuntu | 07:47 |
| andycc | shatly: fstab doesn't really help us. | 07:47 |
| strcpy | Broadcom 4313 problem, anybody ?! | 07:47 |
| dancek | CornishPasty, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=964792 <-- looks like someone fixed it by moving the disk from primary slave to master on IDE | 07:47 |
| shatly | well | 07:47 |
| CornishPasty | dancek, that'd be helpful if these weren't entirely SATA :P | 07:48 |
| shatly | i decided to find a file that i KNEW would be on his hardrives in ubuntu area | 07:48 |
| shatly | and fstab was one i could think of | 07:48 |
| dancek | CornishPasty, it certainly sounds like there is a real bug in the drivers but it's been there for quite a time and hasn't been fixed | 07:48 |
| shatly | and that is all partitions except the W95 Ext'd (LBA) mounted | 07:48 |
| andycc | shatly | 07:48 |
| CornishPasty | dancek, I read somewhere that it was a bug in sata_nv, and someone provided a patch, but it was for an old kernel which no longer works | 07:48 |
| andycc | so you want the partition on which wubi is installed | 07:48 |
| andycc | right? | 07:48 |
| Lcawte|Away | Anyone ever crontabed ntpdate (my clock keeps skipping out of sync) | 07:49 |
| yaaar | Having trouble installing 10.04 on a new intel H55/i7 with 2 sata drives. For some reason device mapper is picking them up and calling them a raid, even though windows is on one and the other is empty. What gives? This seems like a very straightforward setup. | 07:49 |
| andycc | shatly: if that's it, the partition is mounted on /host. In your case, /host is /dev/sda1. | 07:49 |
| shatly | ok | 07:49 |
| xbonesx | "#conky" seems pretty dead, can anyone help me with setting up a premade scropt to work with my system? | 07:49 |
| yaaar | if i use 'dmsetup remove_all' then the installer simply doesn't see any drives | 07:50 |
| CornishPasty | dancek, http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/20/51 if that's of any help to anyone :P | 07:50 |
| moob | @Lcawte ... openntpd? | 07:51 |
| andycc | yaaar: it's semi-hardware-raid. You need to use a Windows tool/the BIOS/a recovery DVD/whatever to separate them. | 07:51 |
| yaaar | andycc: i have to use a tool to *separate* them? i never *combined* them! | 07:52 |
| shatly | andycc: thanks, i think i found it | 07:52 |
| shatly | lucas@ubuntu:/mnt/tmp5/ubuntu/disks$ ls | 07:52 |

| pksadiq | how to do ls pagewise? | 07:53 |
| rww | ls | less | 07:53 |
| pksadiq | k, let me try | 07:53 |
| andycc | yaaar: try dmraid -an | 07:54 |
| CornishPasty | dancek, how do I find out the drive serial numbers so I know which drive ata2 is? | 07:54 |
| andycc | yaaar: that should separate them. | 07:54 |
| moob | So, no body know of a guide to encrypt an Amazon EC2 server? | 07:54 |
| pksadiq | and so now how to ls directories only? | 07:54 |
| andycc | shatly: it was /dev/sda1, right? It's listed by mount. | 07:54 |
| yaaar | andycc: RAID set "sil_aebgaiabfdfh1" is not active (then the same for sil_aebgaiabfdfh2 and sil_aebgaiabfdfh3) | 07:54 |

| datacorrupt | Sas, well try to get one. Then see if you can turn it off that way. | 08:18 |
| datacorrupt | I wish I had a webcam so I could recommend an application to you. | 08:19 |
| sas | which one? what is cheese? | 08:19 |

| andycc | sas: Haha. Look at the label next time. | 08:22 |
| tensorpudding | sam_sam: sure | 08:22 |
| andycc | sam_sam: depends on how you want to call it, but yes, it's Linux with the GNU userland. | 08:22 |
| datacorrupt | Just try cheese, if that doesn't work then come back. | 08:22 |
| shatly | datacorrupt: from what i am reading cheese oftem makes it worse | 08:23 |
| sam_sam | u mean only the kernel or ubuntu software repository also ? | 08:23 |
| datacorrupt | Really? | 08:23 |

| tensorpudding | Ubuntu contains a lot of software that isn't related to GNU, and not necessarily under the GPL | 08:24 |
| tensorpudding | so maybe GNU/Linux is misleading | 08:24 |
| sam_sam | tensorpudding: thats my obervation too .. | 08:24 |
| andycc | tensorpudding: well, you can call it whatever you want to. Why not Linux/GNU/X/Wesnoth, for that matter? | 08:24 |

| nardul | Hi, i'm currently trying to make a USB Disk Controller work in Ubuntu. The chipset on it says jm20316, it won't register in dmesg, if i plug it in a Fedora machine it detects it. Being used to Gentoo i believe i just compiled it into my kernel. What would the procedure be on Ubuntu? | 09:28 |
| xbonesx | you know when you press CTRL+ALT+(left or right) it will only let you go all the way to one end and then you have to hit the opposite direction? is there a way to make the mouse scroll do that as well? | 09:29 |

| xbonesx | "look at opendesktop specification for Bookmarks organisation"??? sry not understanding... :( | 09:42 |
| yaaar | st__: this has been maddening. the system seems so simple: intel h55/i7 with 2 sata hard drlves and a sata dvd. i put win7 on the first drive. then 10.04 wouldn't install because for some reason device mapper saw the drives as a raid even though they aren't. so i switched to 10.10. the installer let me go this time....albeit with weird device-mapper device names. bit now grub is clearly busticated | 09:43 |

| yaaar | erUSUL: well there's no raid config that i can find. there's a setting "configure sata as" that's set to IDE (the other choice is AHCI i think...whatever it was it didn't help with the 10.04 install, and it made win7 not boot) | 09:46 |

Then send a record of that password back to a local encrypted folder that will store the remotely generated password from that file and can then be pulled again to repeat the process? | 09:57 |

| dancek | sy, why not use ssh keys? | 09:59 |

| erUSUL | wunjo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Command Line and Rescue Mode | 10:00 |
| dancek | llutz, he didn't say he doesn't | 10:00 |
| llutz | dancek: "sshing into server for backup" sounds different to me | 10:01 |
| erUSUL | sy: why would you need that complicated scheme???? | 10:01 |
| SmokeyD | hey everyone, I have two processes that don't want to terminate when I sudo kill them. Is there any other way to terminate them? | 10:01 |
| sy | @dancek I am but I mean like... creating an alias such as maybe 'alias login="root@server.com" ' then a follow up command that changes the user password with a generated one that stores a local copy... It was just a thought I had earlier today | 10:02 |
| SmokeyD | except for rebooting of course | 10:02 |
| wunjo | I have used Ubuntu for 6 years and never had this stuff happen | 10:02 |
| yaaar | SmokeyD: are you using kill -9 ? | 10:02 |
| SmokeyD | yaaar: yes | 10:02 |
| wunjo | what a major dissapointment | 10:02 |
| dancek | llutz, i thought this was more about some security stuff rather than the backup technique -- i for one use rsync over ssh | 10:02 |
| yaaar | SmokeyD: that's about as much kill as you get without rebooting | 10:02 |
| SmokeyD | yaaar: ok | 10:03 |
| dancek | sy, i can't see the point | 10:03 |
| sy | dancek: yes it was about security... more so about randomly generated passwords | 10:03 |
| sy | lol just a random thought | 10:03 |
| dancek | sy, i think you'll be much more secure with ssh keys than pseudorandom passwords | 10:03 |
| erUSUL | sy: creating a password from urandom is easy « tr -cd '[:print:]' < /dev/urandom | head -c 10 » not easy is changing the password in the remote side from a script | 10:03 |
| ectospasm | SmokeyD: if you've got zombie processes, you have to kill their parent. Unfortunately many times that's init (-; | 10:04 |
| erUSUL | SmokeyD: are they zombie processes? or stuck in D state? | 10:04 |
| SmokeyD | erUSUL: ps auwx gives me a D in there somewhere. But what does that mean? | 10:05 |
| yaaar | SmokeyD: waiting on a disk | 10:05 |
| erUSUL | SmokeyD: it means that the process is un-killable. it got interrupted during an I/O syscall that never returned.... | 10:05 |
| SmokeyD | ah ok, there is a file that it is trying to open or close and it is waiting for that? | 10:05 |
| sy | Is there any encryption stronger than aes-256? Ubuntu only allows up to that correct? I had a conversation with some one earlier about there being a livecd that can crack it(havn't heard about that). | 10:06 |
| SmokeyD | erUSUL: ah ok. Then I get it. | 10:06 |

| sy | vaibhav: then you can do --> ssh -D 4444 (or any other port number) youruser@yourserver | 10:16 |
| sy | vaibhav: then you would have to set up your browser, such as firefox, with the appropriate proxy settings | 10:17 |
| vaibhav | sy: so you mean to say first i ssh into server then connect to that system | 10:17 |
| fab | Join #asterisk | 10:17 |
| sy | vaibhav: #1 ssh into a server ex: ssh -D 4444 (or any other port number) youruser@yourserver #2 set up your browser's proxy settings to match #3 enjoy ssh tunnel :) | 10:18 |

| vaibhav | YuviPanda: may be iso has got problem, because if the usb is detected, the only problem i can think of is source | 10:28 |
| Spyzer | yeah i now, but actually i want to create a template fro doing that through script and all | 10:29 |
| YuviPanda | vaibhav: yes, I do realize that the ISO is probably the issue here, since it is not exactly a standard installer | 10:30 |

| YuviPanda | vaibhav: the ISO is not corrupt | 10:33 |
| traubisoda | should i download the ubuntu iso again or it doeasn't matter? | 10:33 |
| erUSUL | felix_: maybe xawtv, tvtime and vlc are using some X extension that wont work over ssh ? like xv? | 10:34 |
| YuviPanda | vaibhav: I verified the hash | 10:34 |
| erUSUL | traubisoda: check the iso | 10:34 |

| vaibhav | YuviPanda: then i am out of ideas, try google the problem | 10:34 |
| traubisoda | I've already done that and it's fine. the problem is registered as a bug but the only solution I've found is the removal of the RAM | 10:35 |
| traubisoda | and since I can't do that now I need another solution :/ | 10:36 |

| koltroll | my user 'web' is a member of the groups 'web' and 'webdev'. I don't want it to be a member of 'web' (the default one) but rather just only 'webdev' so that when the user creates files the group on those files becomes 'webdev'. | 10:39 |

| koltroll | Krishnandu, and then the user will automatically loose his relations to that group ? | 10:44 |
| Krishnandu | koltroll: otherwise remove the user from the group. But remember you need to assign him/her to some group immidiately | 10:44 |
| koltroll | the user has two groups at the moment | 10:45 |
| Krishnandu | koltroll: you can't del a grp if any user has assosiation with it...I think | 10:45 |

| jrib | pozic: let's try to remember what happened with the new user. In this user you are sourcing .bashrc in .profile and in .bashrc, /etc/completion gets sourced. In the new user .bashrc was sourced from .profile by default and /etc/bash_completion was sourced in .bashrc. Is that correct? | 11:10 |
| jrib | "this user" means "old user" | 11:10 |
| pozic | jrib: wrong. | 11:11 |
| jrib | pozic: ok, please correct me | 11:11 |
| jrib | swifty: yes when I type a pid that doesn't exist | 11:11 |

| pozic | jrib: you told me there is a standard file which does that, but I didn't check that. | 11:12 |
| pozic | jrib: yes, there is such a file. | 11:12 |
| jrib | pozic: check that it sources .bashrc (should be lines 11-17 iirc) | 11:13 |

| jrib | pozic: I guess you can check that bash_completion is enabled on the test user or add some "touch foo" to .bashrc so we can be sure | 11:13 |
| jrib | xbonesx: how about the way I said? | 11:13 |
| pozic | jrib: completion seems to be enabled, but I don't know a good command to test. | 11:14 |
| xbonesx | jrib: doesnt allow you to completely edit the contents of the menu structure | 11:14 |
| pozic | jrib: when I login as test, it executed a line from /home/test/.bashrc which referred to a non-existing file and reported that. | 11:15 |
| jrib | pozic: can you be more specific? | 11:15 |
| pozic | jrib: /home/test/.git-completion.sh | 11:15 |

| xbonesx | well to be more specific my "filesystem" link under computer disappeared and i dont know why so i was trying to but it back, this is the default one im speaking of not an extra bookmark i could add | 11:16 |
| pozic | jrib: it is pretty much failed with all kinds of authentication errors, but nothing related to the issue we are discussing. | 11:17 |
| pozic | jrib: so, in short, yes. | 11:18 |
| jrib | pozic: I want to guess that the file is being interpreted by something like dash instead of bash but I have no clue why that would be happening | 11:18 |
| pozic | jrib: what is 'the file'? | 11:18 |
| maedox | xbonesx, there might be a better way, but you can easily make a link to / by pressing the little arrow beside your username in the "address" bar when in your home folder. Drag the hard drive icon to your bookmarks in nautilus. | 11:18 |
| pozic | jrib: bash_completion? | 11:18 |
| jrib | pozic: bash_completion (or maybe more) | 11:18 |
| xbonesx | maedox: thats the thing... it shows up in the left pane on the file browser but not in places menu on the panel menu | 11:19 |
| pozic | jrib: so, I can just add #!/bin/bash to bash_completion and it should work? | 11:19 |
| johan__ | Hey, i just installed Kaffeine and it does not show up in the program menu, how can i find it so i can start it? | 11:20 |
| maedox | xbonesx, you mean "Filesystem" doesn't show in Places? Neither does mine. It's not supposed to be there by default. | 11:20 |
| pozic | jrib: not a nice solution, but I have the impression that you are getting out of ideas too. | 11:20 |
| micka_z0 | i make a launcher : gksudo bleachbit . but this is not working the same with sudo bleachbit which i type from terminal. can someone please answer me why ? | 11:20 |
| jrib | pozic: no I don't think that would matter. You can certainly try to test and see, won't hurt anything. You can also temporarily rename /bin/dash to bash so we can rule it out. Yeah, I'm just trying to figure out what is going on, then once we do that we can try to find a reason and a nice solution | 11:20 |
| geirha | pozic: That won't do anything | 11:20 |
| maedox | micka_z0, gksudo is for graphical apps, is bleachbit a text only app? | 11:20 |
| xbonesx | maedox: are you sure, i always thought it was.... im going to feel really dumb if thats the case i have spent hours trying to figure this out | 11:21 |
| micka_z0 | maedox: bleachbit has a gui. | 11:21 |
| maedox | xbonesx, It's not here, and I have done nothing to remove it. | 11:21 |
| pozic | jrib: what I don't understand is that source .bashrc works just fine. | 11:21 |
| maedox | micka_z0, alright, then it's a bit odd. Run gksudo bleachbit in terminal and look for errors. | 11:21 |
| xbonesx | maedox: wow... :S guess im going to give up on that one then... hahaha | 11:21 |
| pozic | jrib: that is as the user for which graphical logins are not working. | 11:21 |

| maedox | micka_z0, then I have no idea. | 11:23 |

| [Anthony] | any ideas? | 11:23 |
| pozic | geirha: test for bash, how? | 11:24 |
| xbonesx | "shoijklh d beae finefa" = "should be fine" LMAO | 11:24 |
| sectorb | st__: Thunar or Krusader | 11:24 |
| jrib | pozic: use lines 11-17 in /etc/skel/.profile | 11:24 |
| geirha | pozic: if [ "$BASH_VERSION" -a -f "$HOME/.bashrc" ]; then . "$HOME/.bashrc"; fi | 11:24 |
| sectorb | st__: Xfe is nice too | 11:25 |
| st__ | it's not lightweight! besides, the altter is probably kde-dependant?? | 11:25 |
| xbonesx | lol ruins the joke when you have to explain, but you laughed so i succeed | 11:25 |
| geirha | pozic: BASH_VERSION is a special internal variable that bash sets. dash should not set it. | 11:25 |
| === maciek_ is now known as Guest91621 | ||
| st__ | xfe looks like win95 abortion (( | 11:25 |
| pozic | geirha: ok | 11:25 |

| Guest91621 | KROSNO | 11:26 |
| yaaar | well that was barking up the wrong tree. turns out h55 doesnt have raid fake or otherwise. which makes one wonder why devicemapper thinks the hard drives are striped | 11:26 |

| maedox | xbonesx, hehe, yeah, I thought you'd cracked your head | 11:26 |
| yaaar | this is driving me nuts | 11:26 |
| * xbonesx is probably going to screw something up with ubuntu being so open to changes... :S | 11:26 | |
| xbonesx | maedox: what were the other defaults in your places menu? | 11:27 |
| xbonesx | cuz i think i deleted one of the bookmarkable ones | 11:28 |
| pozic | geirha,jrib: problem solved. | 11:28 |
| * jtopper waves a greeting | 11:29 | |
| st__ | is there some gui tool for setting .fonts.conf or .gtkrc??? | 11:29 |
| maedox | xbonesx, Home, Desktop, Computer, Bookmarks, List of other partitions, Network, Connect to Server, Search and Recent | 11:29 |
| pozic | geirha: can you explain again why this fixes it? | 11:29 |
| jtopper | Can anyone tell me where to find details on how to build a custom Alternative Install CD? | 11:30 |
| geirha | pozic: .profile is sourced by an sh script gdm runs when you log in. sh is a symlink to dash by default, and dash doesn't understand all the bash syntax, so it will error out whenever it encounters them. | 11:30 |
| pozic | geirha: .gnomerc? | 11:31 |
| xbonesx | jtopper: http://remastersys.sourceforge.net/remastersystool.html | 11:31 |
| pozic | geirha: since I source it in .gnomerc myself (possibly again then). | 11:31 |
| jtopper | xbonesx: that looks to me as though it only covers the live CD, unless I'm missing something | 11:32 |
| xbonesx | jtopper: nope it lets you make a live cd of your current system setup | 11:32 |
| geirha | pozic: Possibly, yes. Add an ''date >> /tmp/testfile'' to the start of .profile, log in and see how many lines there are in /tmp/testfile and you'll know if it was sourced more than once. | 11:32 |
| jtopper | sadly that's not what I'm looking for. | 11:32 |
| jtopper | as far as I can tell, the recent kernel update for lucid has generated a new set of network install .udebs in the package repo which reference a symbol in the kernel which doesn't exist on the most current alternative install CD. I'm hoping to find either a more recent alternative image, or instructions on how to make one from a currently installed kernel | 11:34 |
| xbonesx | jtopper: is that not what a alt cd is, a modified version of the original live cd??? | 11:34 |
| well_laid_lawn | !alternate | 11:34 |
| ubottu | The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate - See also !minimal | 11:34 |
| jtopper | I don't believe so. | 11:34 |
| jtopper | yes, sorry, alternate· | 11:35 |
| xbonesx | so i was right then? | 11:35 |
| jtopper | I don't believe so, no. it looks to me as though they're built differently. | 11:36 |
| xbonesx | you could do the same with the alt cd, install it then modify it, then make a bootable live cd using the program | 11:36 |
| red2kic | jtopper: Following Heron Hardy, I'm certain 10.04.1 will be released eventually. | 11:36 |
| === ahmeddrira is now known as Ahmed_Drira | ||
| xbonesx | jtopper: you could install the alt cd update the kernel, if thats what your trying to do, then use the program to make a live cd again... ? <--- thats what you want to do right? | 11:37 |

| TrI30T | Hello all, not sure if this is the right place, but I was just wondering if I could get some help writing a shell script, I'm a bit lost... | 11:41 |
| aeon-ltd | !details | TrI30T | 11:41 |
| ubottu | TrI30T: 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 ..." | 11:41 |
| maedox | tevoda, I believe it used to be Exim4, but they changed it to Dovecot in Lucid. There are several available in the repos. | 11:42 |
| rww | !mta | 11:42 |
| ubottu | A Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) is the server software that sends and queues mail. The default MTA (and !MDA) on Ubuntu is !postfix ("exim" is also officially supported). See also !MailServer and !MUA | 11:42 |
| maedox | TrI30T, let us have it. You are in the right place. | 11:42 |
| oldschooller | aeon-ltd, I'm confused with this as in VPS control panel I have string "Hostname: vds666.coolhostingcompany.com" | 11:42 |
| bejo | hai | 11:43 |
| oldschooller | aeon-ltd, should I use this one when installing OS ? | 11:43 |
| magnetron | oldschooller: doesn't matter | 11:43 |
| aeon-ltd | oldschooller: i assume thats the hostname of your isp, please read the wiki for more info | 11:43 |
| xbonesx | whats the terminal command for cleaning up useless packages in synaptic package manager? | 11:43 |
| TrI30T | Well my server is running Ubuntu 9.1 and I'm trying to write up a shell script for cron that will automatically stop a game server, zip/tar/gzip a backup of it, delete any extra backups (I only want 3 available at a time), run a map generating program and then restart the server | 11:43 |
| magnetron | oldschooller: the UNIX hostname doesn't have to be identical to the webserver hostname | 11:43 |
| jollyman | I installed alternate 64 and the installed "Lubuntu-Desktop". It works, but now I want to use Gnome and ubuntu too. Can I just install it vis synaptic, and then choose on the login, which desktop-enviroment to start? | 11:44 |
| aeon-ltd | jollyman: yes | 11:44 |
| jollyman | aeon-ltd:thank you | 11:44 |
| iflema | xbonesx: apt-get autoremove (deps) and/or apt-get clean (installers) | 11:44 |
| magnetron | jollyman: yes. | 11:44 |
| === k is now known as Guest2052 | ||
| oldschooller | magnetron, aeon-ltd Thanks! | 11:45 |
| TrI30T | I think I have the right idea so far but I don't think I'm doing it quite right, this is what I have so far http://pastebin.org/1026373 | 11:45 |
| maedox | TrI30T, do you have any experience in the shell? Do you know how to stop/start services, use tar/gzip etc., and find? | 11:45 |
| maedox | TrI30T, alright, I'll take a look. | 11:45 |
| TrI30T | I have very little experience, I'm pretty new to linux as a whole, when I started writing this script I had NO idea what I was doing so it's kind of piecemealed together from various tutorials on the net | 11:46 |
| jollyman | I know that I installed "Lubuntu-Desktop", but in the synaptic manager it states, that it isn't installed. Can I just install it anyway? last question for now :p | 11:46 |
| maedox | TrI30T, ok, I'll set you straight. :D | 11:46 |
| TrI30T | I do have programming experience with PHP/MySQL and a little bit of C# though | 11:46 |
| aeon-ltd | jollyman: lubuntu-desktop is a metapackage | 11:46 |
| aeon-ltd | !metapackage | 11:46 |
| ubottu | A meta-package is a package that simply depends upon other packages and brings them in. It's not a real package, but a very useful package that can drag in other package versions. | 11:46 |
| snez | hi, I have about 200 httpd processes running on my system and I can't figure out what they are as they don't appear in my logfile. Is there another way with top/ps/other to find out what those httpd requests are? | 11:47 |
| TrI30T | maedox I know a few lines are horribly wrong, like the $DATE - 3 bit, I was just trying to place what I wanted where | 11:47 |
| jollyman | aeon-ltd: I heard that, but what does it tell me? | 11:47 |
| TrI30T | er, or rather the idea of what I wanted to do | 11:47 |
| jollyman | aeon-ltd: the lubuntu package show in synaptic | 11:48 |
| aeon-ltd | jollyman: nothing, it doesn't really do anything but make it easier to install a group of packages on first install | 11:49 |
| maedox | TrI30T, 1. you should avoid using killall and consider using any built in methods for stopping and starting services. 2. Use tar instead of zip to keep the permissions. tar czf filename.tgz dir1/ dir2/ file1 file2 3. why are you using && on some lines? 4. read up on find -mtime to see how to easier find files older than a set number of days. | 11:49 |
| sasaniak | hello there, i have a problem with the latest update in xubuntu. i tried asking in #xubuntu but noone knew the answer | 11:49 |
| aeon-ltd | !details | sasaniak | 11:49 |
| ubottu | sasaniak: 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 ..." | 11:49 |
| sasaniak | yeah i'm going to say the details | 11:49 |
| jollyman | aeon-ltd: nice, I hope everything works here,.. hehe | 11:49 |
| sasaniak | but afaik irc chops away long strings :) | 11:50 |
| bejo | Hello all | 11:50 |
| TrI30T | maedox I used && because I saw that it would only run the next command if the previous command finished, I'm trying to use them to ensure that the next command doesn't start while the first one is running (trying to map the server while it's being compressed for instance) | 11:50 |
| sasaniak | so, after rebooting with the latest updates, network manager says the wifi is disabled. rfkill list says 1: phy0: wireless LAN, soft blocked: no, hard blocked: yes | 11:51 |
| jan33 | snez: netstat -tpe | 11:51 |
| maedox | TrI30T, I see, that's what I thought. You should use if statements, because && might give unforeseen consequences sometimes. | 11:51 |
| sasaniak | my button for wifi on my laptop is blue, so it should be turned on (i was able to turn it on and off with that button before rebooting) | 11:51 |
| TrI30T | maedox how do I use an if statement to check if an action is done though? | 11:52 |
| sasaniak | my laptop is hp probook 6440b, wifi driver is iwlagn | 11:52 |
| geirha | TrI30T: I recommend you read up on the basics here: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide | 11:52 |
| sasaniak | sudo ifconfig wlan0 up: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Unknown error 132 | 11:53 |
| geirha | TrI30T: An important thing to know is that [ is NOT shell syntax, it's a regular command. | 11:53 |
| sasaniak | any suggestions/questions? :) | 11:53 |
| hobble | I am using chatzilla in firefox, how can I display the channel tabs in two or three rows? | 11:54 |
| hobble | All the tabs are just getting merged into them.. | 11:54 |
| hobble | Can somebody help on this, please? | 11:55 |
| maedox | TrI30T, I believe it is better to check the prerequisites for the commands (e.g. check that file and to-dir exists before doing mv) first and then execute them, that way you will also not continue with anything before all previous commands are done correctly. | 11:55 |
| * Wo-TaoYan is away: 我很忙 | 11:56 | |
| sasaniak | no one ? :( | 11:57 |
| boscop | hi. does anyone know a free piano simulator that either uses midi without delay or no midi? | 11:57 |
| bazhang | !away > Wo-TaoYan | 11:57 |
| ubottu | Wo-TaoYan, please see my private message | 11:57 |
| TrI30T | well maedox I need to figure out if something is done, like compressing the folder before I move it, checking the prerequisits will result in a true statement even while it's still compressing and the move command will execute anyways | 11:58 |
| Wo-TaoYan | ok^ | 11:58 |
| TrI30T | or at least I assume the move command will execute, I don't know exactly how bash runs each line | 11:58 |
| maedox | TrI30T, that ps | grep statement will probably always be True too, because it will match the grep process. Using ps -ef | grep '[u]nique string' will not match the grep process if nothing is found. | 11:58 |
| iflema | TrI30T: there is also while, until, and for to consider... see if you can draw what you want... work it out then code it or rewrite on the fly whatever takes ya fancy ;) | 11:59 |
| maedox | TrI30T, bash scripts are executed top to bottom, so it will wait for the compression before continuing. | 11:59 |
| LjL | maedox, TrI30T: perhaps it would be better to use "pidof" in the first place? that will return false if there is no such process | 11:59 |
| Ubuwhat | j #sane | 12:00 |
| geirha | TrI30T: Also, there's no point in checking if a process is running if you are just gonna kill it anyway. man pkill | 12:00 |
| vdefense | hey | 12:00 |
| maedox | LjL, TrI30T, but one would still need to check which is which if there are more than one java process. | 12:00 |
| maedox | geirha, TrI30T, that is a good point. :) | 12:01 |
| Ubuwhat | Hi all. | 12:01 |
| LjL | maedox: true. i didn't really read the scrollback of this. | 12:01 |
| TrI30T | well, I rewrote that bit so it's java ServerLauncher, which is the actual name | 12:01 |
| FlexGuy | anybody knows mdadm? | 12:02 |
| geirha | TrI30T: This has in-depth discussion of why you shouldn't use ps in scripts; among other things. http://mywiki.wooledge.org/ProcessManagement | 12:02 |
| sasaniak | aeon-ltd: could you recommend anything please? :/ | 12:02 |
| ksbalaji | I've installed 10.04 But on booting, I get GRUB _ and the cursor blinks. I have a bootloader in windows. How to chain bootload? (the /boot/grub/grub.cnf file exists. | 12:03 |
| aeon-ltd | sasaniak: hardware blocked?, no idea but you could try turning it on and off again (no i'm not patronising) | 12:03 |
| TrI30T | It's a bit complicated though, and this is something else I wanted to ask, when I run java ServerLauncher I can issue server commands from that session, I usually use a screen so that I can detach and logout without leaving the putty terminal up all the time, If there's a way, I'd like to set it up so that the script issues a "stop" command to the java program to make sure the server shuts down the way it's supposed to as opposed to just ki | 12:03 |
| TrI30T | lling it | 12:03 |
| sasaniak | aeon-ltd: tried that, tried rebooting twice, didn't help | 12:04 |
| TrI30T | and then I could use a while loop to make sure the script doesn't continue until the process is dead | 12:05 |
| geirha | TrI30T: See that process management page. | 12:06 |
| ksbalaji | first time when I tried chainbooting, I got grub> prompt and I gave root= and kernel commands successfully to boot. Then I did update-grub and tried to reboot. Now I get a blank screen with GRUB _ blinking cursor | 12:06 |

| ivan_ | e aee | 12:13 |
| TrI30T | ok geirha, I've skimmed through that page, lots of good stuff and it actually answers a good deal of the questions I had, but I'm still wondering about that java process, is there a way that I can bring it back from the background, echo "stop" and then continue with the script? | 12:14 |
| geirha | TrI30T: If you start it from the script itself, you can have some control over it. | 12:16 |
| TrI30T | I don't follow | 12:17 |

| red | (except fully in command line) | 12:18 |
| TrI30T | I can't explain it very well but when I run java ServerLauncher, I get a readout of what people are doing on the server and I can issue commands like "list" and "stop" and whatnot, by using the stop there it saves all the data on the server before shutting down, which is much preferable to just killing the process | 12:19 |

| plovs | f00bar80: hddtemp is probably easiest, then the smarttools, lm-sensors is the most complicated (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2780) | 12:35 |
| well_laid_lawn | plovs: well done - I forgot about hddtemp :] | 12:35 |

| plovs | f00bar80: unless the drive is breaking down, which smart can tell you, overheating is usually an external problem, so no, the tools do not know if your computer is gathering dust, or is on fire | 12:37 |

| stevecoh1 | what is the uuid supposed to be the id OF? | 13:39 |
| Dr_Willis | !uuid | 13:39 |
| ubottu | To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 13:39 |
| heleen | Dr_Willis, it is a TFT monitor. (AOC F22S) with the system/monitor tool I can only select one refresh rate at the highest resolution (60hz), which is correct according to the specifications of the monitor | 13:40 |
| Dr_Willis | uuid of the 'root' device i think where /boot/ is to be found | 13:40 |
| stevecoh1 | Thank you. I have just cloned a hard drive and the new one won't boot even though the grub menu comes up. | 13:40 |
| sacarlson | stevecoh1: it's the id of the hardrive so you can move it do different sdaX sdbX positions and it will still be found and boot | 13:40 |
| stevecoh1 | So on a different hard drive this would have to be changed? | 13:41 |
| maedox | stevecoh1, yes, you need to change the UUID in /etc/fstab | 13:41 |
| sacarlson | stevecoh1: normaly yes at format that number is created. I guess if you clone the drive you could cause a problem with this system | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | you can chantge the uuid with the tune2fs command.. but ive rarely needed to mess with them | 13:43 |
| stevecoh1 | If I wanted to change the UUID, how would I know what to change it TO? | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | change it to the one mentioned in the grub file perhaps. | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | or boot a live cd, chroot to the installed system and rerun 'update-grub' and it should generate a proper grub files | 13:43 |
| heleen | Dr_Willis, I see that the h frequency is 67Hz and vertical is 60hz in the OSD menu of the monitor. In the system/monitor tool of ubuntu I can only select 60Hz. SHould it be 67? | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | heleen: not sure. ive rarely had issues with LCD's this is using a CRT or DVI connection? | 13:44 |
| maedox | heleen, no, it's the vertical freq, and it's correct. | 13:44 |
| heleen | normal vga df-sub | 13:44 |
| Dr_Willis | heleen: no way to use DVI eh? | 13:44 |
| stevecoh1 | I tried booting to a live CD and it wouldn't let me run update-grub saying the root partition wasn't mounted and it wouldn't let me mount it. It did let me mount the boot partition, but I couldn't run update-grub. | 13:44 |
| AbhiJit | i have tasm in my c: drive of wine. how to run it from terminal? | 13:44 |
| heleen | Dr_Willis, since the laptop doesn't have DVI and neither does the lcd | 13:44 |
| Dr_Willis | heleen: it could be its gettting the wrng info from the monitor. It may need to be 67. I use dvi/hdmi when ever i can | 13:45 |
| SirDidi | how can i stream my line in input on my wlan? | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis | heleen: My New laptop has HDMI :) | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis | SirDidi: vlc can do that. | 13:45 |
| maedox | stevecoh1, it's not straight forward to do that. you need to chroot after mounting /. | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis | SirDidi: and proberly other ways also | 13:45 |
| heleen | this one is only a few months old and hasn't got either since we don't need high def video | 13:45 |
| SirDidi | Dr_Willis, do you know how? i can onyl find the options to stream mp3s etc | 13:45 |

| stevecoh1 | Dr Willis: "change it to the one mentioned in the grub file perhaps." Change it where to the one mentioned in the grub file? I was going to change the grub file. You have a different idea, but I don't understand where you suggest I make the change. | 13:46 |

| heleen | Dr_Willis, I managed with cvt, xrandr --newmode and xrandr --addmode to add 67Hz as refresh rate for the 1920x1080 resolution, but that didn't work. The monitor just turns off then (fortunately it reverts after 15 secs). | 13:52 |
| sacarlson | enetic: I would look for the external switch it normaly has an led that indicates the state of wifi | 13:53 |
| heleen | and according to the docs it indeed also should be 1920x1080 @ 60Hz | 13:53 |
| enetic | sacarlson, its to the far right.. but the light is red instead of blue | 13:53 |
| enetic | rockhopper, i just did the lspci | 13:53 |

| Chr|s | ok | 14:47 |

| EvanCC | how does one upgrade the kernel on ubuntu server (ie from the command line)? | 14:49 |
| look | then run gparted with terminal "sudo gparted" | 14:49 |
| look | EvanCC: sudo update first, then sudo upgrade. should work... | 14:49 |
| Chr|s | look, ok done | 14:50 |
| look | drive should not be greyed out. | 14:50 |
| EvanCC | look it shows linux-server being held back... | 14:50 |
| look | EvanCC: hmm | 14:50 |
| Squarism | can i utilize my sudo rights through scp on the remote machine? | 14:50 |
| Chr|s | look, no the drive is not, I see the partition, but where it says unmount it was | 14:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | EvanCC, see if "sudo aptitude safe-upgrade" bring in the kernel, it still might now | 14:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | s/now/not | 14:50 |
| Chr|s | should i delete or reformat to ext4? | 14:51 |
| EvanCC | ZykoticK9, okay that did it...what is safe-upgrade and how is it different from upgrade? | 14:51 |
| look | Chr|s: then the partition was already Unmounted, so go ahead and delete it, but don't format use the Ubuntu installer to do that for you | 14:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | EvanCC, "apt-get upgrade" won't install new packages, safe-upgrade does - so if there was a package requirement it might have been resolved | 14:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | EvanCC, think of "aptitude safe-upgrade" as being similar to dist-upgrade with apt-get | 14:53 |
| Chr|s | look, it is saying Unable to delete /dev/sda5. "Please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than 5" | 14:53 |
| EvanCC | ZykoticK9, thanks | 14:53 |
| Chr|s | which is /dev/sda6 which is the linux-swap | 14:53 |
| look | Chr|s: if your swap is still there it should be able to use it...hmm go ahead and format and install then | 14:54 |

| detrix | How do I get grub to update the mbr in Lucid? | 14:54 |
| ZykoticK9 | Chr|s, you might need to use "sudo swapoff -a" to disable swap paritions before making changes to any other paritions. good luck. | 14:55 |
| iflema | detrix: sudo update-grub2 in a terminal | 14:55 |
| Chr|s | ZykoticK9, I see the opting to use swapoff | 14:55 |

| Chr|s | look, ZykoticK9 so turn swapoff and try to delete partition again? | 14:56 |
| Condorito | Hi. Some advice, please about video codecs settings (?). | 14:56 |
| physically_fit | is it safe to remove my current kernel? it is one from the "generic-pae" type. i don't use the "generic-pae" type. how do i disable or prevent from future updates to install the generic-pae kernels? thanks | 14:56 |
| Chr|s | It is working for me | 14:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | Chr|s, that's what I'd try (i haven't really been following your issue though, just saw the swap comment) | 14:57 |
| look | ZykoticK9: your right, i should have thought of that before hand. thanks mate. | 14:57 |
| maedox | physically_fit, don't remove your current kernel. Reboot to another one first (to make sure it works), then remove the kernels you don't want. | 14:57 |
| Chr|s | ok I have unallocated space now, just install ubuntu in that space? what about the swap? | 14:58 |
| detrix | iflema, thanks, I was using update-grub not grub2....well that did not work...I installed lucid on a flash drive, now the mbr expects the flash drive to be there and access the flash drives grub menu!!!! update-grub2 did not change this. | 14:58 |

| look | Origin: plug the ethernet cable into the back of the computer lol | 15:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | uLinux, yes it's evolution mail - but i think it's part of Ubuntu desktop | 15:02 |
| Condorito | BluesKaj, not related issues. The wine run program appeared only in shades of reds. After that, any video I play back shows only in greens and blues. Seems related. | 15:02 |

| uLinux | ZykoticK9: only evolution-data-server-common is related with other stuff | 15:03 |

| iflema | j_ayen_green: grep the logs... not sure about the freezing bit but clients like irssi and weechat can jump to the previous/next highlights | 15:06 |

| Chr|s | BluesKaj, ok | 15:10 |
| Condorito | Update. The funniest thing is videos streaming off the net are in real colors. Only videos on my drive which are played back have the color problem. :/ | 15:11 |
| swiftarrow | S_p_or_t_o: perhaps ask him to check the cable or force-restart the machine? Then do sudo apt-get update OR open synaptic, not both? | 15:11 |

| Chr|s | blue-frog, what type should I use for the partition? Primary or logical. Also it is asking for the location for the new partition: Beginning or end. Windows is on the beggining so I should select end correct? | 15:13 |
| BluesKaj | Condorito, which player ? | 15:13 |
| Chr|s | also, what about Mount Point | 15:13 |
| pksadiq | What is the command to hide all login and leaving messages in irssi,I only need that is typed by somebody | 15:14 |
| erUSUL | !quietirssi | 15:14 |

| fab | /ignore #ubuntu +JOINS +PARTS +QUITS | 15:14 |
| meitantei | anybody could help with Stardict Tools? | 15:15 |
| BluesKaj | Chr|s, choose the partition you want for ubuntu as your mount point " / ", set it as ext4 | 15:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | erUSUL, do you happen to know would the same /ignore line work in xchat as well? | 15:15 |

| ZykoticK9 | erUSUL, thanks - that's certainly the method I use, was just wondering if the IRC command is an easier method to share with people (factor that I did think about however, perhaps those settings wouldn't be saved - thus requiring the GUI right click option anyways) | 15:17 |
| Chr|s | BluesKaj, Im sorry but that didn't really answer my question. I don't know which type to use (Primary or Logical) Also, Location for the new partition and mount point? Im not even sure of. I just want to be able to choose either ore on boot | 15:18 |

| erUSUL | ZykoticK9: i do not use xchat. dunno if it has ignore command | 15:18 |
| meitantei | am I in the right channel with the right question? | 15:18 |
| AbhiJit | testing123, try powertop to minimize the power usage and see if it makes any difference. also if you are facing this problem only with ubuntu then give try to opensuse. they seems to have better power mgmnt for laptops | 15:18 |
| meitantei | about stardict tools?!! | 15:18 |
| Raboo | Hi | 15:18 |
| Raboo | does anyone know a good channel to get help with setting up a IPSEC tunnel using racoon and ipsec-tools? | 15:18 |
| Condorito | BluesKaj, Yep, that appears to be the problem. Thanks for the help. :) | 15:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | erUSUL, i believe that the /ignore is an IRC command independent of client | 15:19 |
| AbhiJit | ZykoticK9, no its not | 15:19 |
| Pici | !details | meitantei | 15:19 |
| ubottu | meitantei: 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 ..." | 15:19 |
| bullgard4 | peppeuz: Try to use cheese with it. | 15:19 |
| AbhiJit | ZykoticK9, i have tested it. | 15:19 |
| subichan | how can i mount a hard disk image taken with ddrescue? | 15:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | AbhiJit, then i "believed" incorrect - sorry | 15:19 |
| testing123 | AbhiJit, powertop and opensuse are programs? | 15:19 |
| meitantei | anybody help with Stardict Tools?!! | 15:19 |
| AbhiJit | testing123, powertop is an application while opensuse is an complete linux os like ubuntu | 15:19 |
| BluesKaj | Chr|s, choose primary as / (root) , set it up as ext4 first , then it may have to be formatted if you are using a partioner like gparte | 15:20 |
| AbhiJit | !patience | meitantei | 15:20 |
| ubottu | meitantei: 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 | 15:20 |
| erUSUL | subichan: it has more than one partition? | 15:20 |
| Pici | meitantei: You need to ask a real question first. | 15:20 |
| peppeuz | bullgard4: i tried but cheese can't see any camera | 15:20 |
| subichan | erUSUL, no it only has one | 15:20 |
| meitantei | ok :'( | 15:20 |
| testing123 | AbhiJit, thanks for the help | 15:20 |
| AbhiJit | testing123, sudo apt-get install powertop will install it. then run it with command sudo powertop then it will monitor your computer and suggest you some changes to make read them carefully and change accordingly. you just need to tell powertop yes or no to change a settings. | 15:21 |
| erUSUL | subichan: anyway « sudo losetup file_disk_image.img » then « sudo partx /dev/loop0 » | 15:21 |
| bullgard4 | peppeuz: There are Ubuntu hardware Compatibility Lists. Try to find your camera there. | 15:21 |
| subichan | erUSUL: no "mount" involved whatsoever? | 15:21 |
| meitantei | but in case anyone knows how and could help pls send me a pm here | 15:21 |
| Balsaq | g | 15:21 |
| meitantei | really appreciate it | 15:21 |
| Pici | meitantei: Knows how to *what*? You haven't asked a real question about stardict yet. | 15:22 |
| erUSUL | subichan: after doing the partx the partition should be aviable for mounting in /dev/disk/* | 15:22 |
| BluesKaj | !pm | meitantei | 15:22 |
| ubottu | meitantei: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 15:22 |
| meitantei | how to install Stardict Tools | 15:22 |
| meitantei | ?!! | 15:22 |
| Pici | meitantei: sudo apt-get install stardict-tools | 15:22 |
| meitantei | and how to convert (.bgl) to stardict in this tool?? | 15:22 |
| S_p_or_t_o | lol, cant even ping ubuntu.com | 15:22 |
| * Chr|s sighs | 15:23 | |
| meitantei | tried that didn't worked | 15:23 |
| Pici | meitantei: Did you get an error? | 15:23 |
| meitantei | and then installed it from software Center and still donno where the application is? | 15:23 |
| meitantei | yup | 15:23 |
| subichan | erUSUL, out of curiosity, with more than one partition i'd need to use fdisk first? | 15:23 |
| Chr|s | I am just going to, once again start all over and see if this is going to work | 15:23 |
| Pici | meitantei: They are all command line tools. | 15:24 |
| pheniox | sca | 15:24 |
| erUSUL | subichan: no; partx should be able to find the partitions and create the dev's | 15:24 |
| subichan | erUSUL, a friend of mine said he'd use fdisk but i couldn't understand a thing of what he said, that's why i mentioned it | 15:24 |
| Pici | meitantei: To start, try: bgl2txt --help | 15:25 |
| meitantei | but as I said it's done installed it with Software Center | 15:25 |
| subichan | erUSUL: basically i'm trying to recover files from a borked HD | 15:25 |
| meitantei | now I don't know how to start the application and how to convert | 15:25 |
| meitantei | ok I will try that ;) | 15:25 |
| erUSUL | subichan: well you caan use fdisk to know the sectors where the partitions start and end then calculate the offset then manually do losetup for everypartition with the calculated offsets then mount. i find "partx" way easier though ;P | 15:26 |
| meitantei | should I just write bgl2txt --help in terminal? | 15:26 |
| red | hmm, I added my user to the group www-data | 15:26 |
| meitantei | didn't worked!! | 15:26 |
| Pici | meitantei: Try it | 15:26 |
| red | and chowned var/www to www-data | 15:27 |
| red | but cant still mkdir there without a permission denied | 15:27 |
| meitantei | command not found!! | 15:27 |
| subichan | erUSUL: the problem is probably the file system is ruined so i wanted to run something to repair it on th eimage. will partx work with a bad filesystem? | 15:27 |
| red | what am i missing? | 15:27 |
| Pici | meitantei: Try: /usr/lib/stardict-tools/bgl2txt --help | 15:27 |
| meitantei | alright | 15:27 |
| subichan | erUSUL, maybe i'm confused and to use dosfsck the image must not be mounted at all, so what i need is for it to appear in /dev/ ? | 15:28 |
| meitantei | error openning --help | 15:29 |
| meitantei | error converting --helpp | 15:29 |
| meitantei | that's wat I got!! | 15:29 |
| pp__ | hello friends | 15:29 |
| erUSUL | subichan: as i said. partx should make the dev aviable in /dev/disk/* | 15:29 |
| pp__ | how do i HDMI!? Sony VAIO with HD 5650 gfx on a bravia tv | 15:30 |
| red | A folder is chowned to www-data:www-data (with -R), I've done adduser myuser www-data to get myself into www-data group, then attempting to mkdir newdirname I get a "Permission denied." -error. | 15:30 |
| Pici | meitantei: I don't know how to use it, I'm just guessing. But thats a good place to start. | 15:30 |
| michaelxq | how can i login as root? | 15:30 |
| jrib | !root | michaelxq | 15:31 |
| ubottu | michaelxq: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 15:31 |
| erUSUL | !root | michaelxq | 15:31 |
| meitantei | hmm ok appreciate ur help | 15:31 |
| jrib | red: well does www-data have write permissions on the directory? | 15:31 |
| red | jrib: drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data www-data 4096 2010-08-13 12:41 www | 15:31 |
| michaelxq | jrib: thx | 15:31 |
| jrib | red: so the group doesn't have write permissions | 15:31 |
| red | and I'm attempting to run mkdir inside the www -folder | 15:31 |
| jrib | !permissions > red | 15:32 |

| meitantei | Pici!!! I found the file bgl2txt in the same directory u told me | 15:34 |

| system | hey | 15:34 |
| mjs7231-1 | Im having some environment issues running commands in crontab | 15:34 |

| anodesni | Hi, I need to install ubuntu on a server which I don't have physical access to. Can I download the iso there and reboot from it somehow and still be able to login by ssh? | 15:35 |
| subichan | erUSUL: i am now trying with an image of a non-ruined usb key to make practice, but unfortunately when i try losetup on the image it says the "ioctl is not proper" for it, what does it mean and what should I do? | 15:35 |
| datacrusher | any good vibes with skype + jack? | 15:35 |
| jrib | anodesni: even if you could install it, you're going to have to modify the iso to setup ssh on install | 15:35 |
| leeb9972 | hi can anyone help me, i have upgraded to 10.10 but just get the black login screen :( | 15:35 |
| jrib | !10.10 | leeb9972 | 15:35 |
| ubottu | leeb9972: Maverick Meerkat is the codename for Ubuntu 10.10, due October 2010 - Maverick is NOT released and NOT Stable, discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 15:35 |
| AbhiJit | .. | 15:35 |
| erUSUL | subichan: dunno sorry | 15:35 |
| Pici | meitantei: I told you, I don't know how to use the program. --help usually will provide a help page, but in this case it doesn't look to be helping. | 15:36 |
| mjs7231-1 | jrib, I want to run the command "workon someproject && do some command". workon is a python virtualenv that comes after sourcing a file 'virtualenvwrapper.sh'. So basically, I want my root user (or cron) to have this file sourced somehow. | 15:36 |
| mjs7231-1 | jrib, It was unclear in the above message, im trying to setup a cron job. | 15:36 |
| ubuntu | not stable is good hehe | 15:36 |
| leeb9972 | i get teminal, so can i not sort if from there? | 15:36 |
| michaelxq | skype fails to play incoming call sound. any ideas? | 15:36 |
| meitantei | hmm alright thanx alot | 15:36 |
| subichan | erUSUL, ok thanks | 15:37 |
| jrib | mjs7231-1: generally, when anything is not straightforward, I just create a small shell script and put that in cron instead of a series of commands | 15:37 |
| jrib | mjs7231-1: and use absolute paths for commands since PATH will be different | 15:37 |
| mjs7231-1 | jrib, good idea, I'll give that a go. :) | 15:37 |
| matador_ | hi, is there someone could help me with apt-add-repository ? | 15:37 |

| matador_ | the system say me that i've not it installed on the system | 15:39 |
| matador_ | but it's already installed | 15:39 |

| matador_ | oh yes | 15:39 |
| matador_ | i'm sorry | 15:39 |
| Pici | trism: Actually on lucid both exist,. | 15:40 |

| MTecknology | Any chace someone with working wireless could pastebin their /etc/network/interfaces for me? I think mine is missing something.. | 15:40 |
| Pici | meitantei: Its in the repositories, you don't need to compile it. | 15:41 |
| trism | Pici: oh, that's good, I always typed it incorrectly on karmic | 15:41 |
| michaelxq | BluesKaj, any idea why this is happening? | 15:41 |
| andycc | LucidGuy: isn't that specified in the mail headers? | 15:41 |
| dschuett | What is a good scsi card to use with ubuntu 10.04? | 15:41 |
| meitantei | got instructed to compile it like this ( ./configure;make;) | 15:41 |
| Pici | !compile | meitantei | 15:41 |
| ubottu | meitantei: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 15:41 |

| michaelxq | BluesKaj, ok thanks anyway | 15:41 |
| meitantei | hmm alright thanx again | 15:41 |
| erUSUL | MTecknology: i expect most people with wireless to use network manager or even wicd no interfaces | 15:41 |
| BluesKaj | michaelxq, maybe one of the ctrls in alsamixer is muted or turned down, could be the pcm | 15:42 |
| matador_ | all the other repo are alredy installed | 15:42 |
| MTecknology | erUSUL: I'm trying to use wicd.. I don't know what's going on | 15:42 |
| pp__ | anyone out there who can help me with some HDMI out problems? | 15:42 |
| acidflash | how can i increase the number of file descriptors a single user is allowed to have ? | 15:43 |
| andycc | LucidGuy: oh, you're running a mailserver. Sorry, I have no experience with that. But I don't think you can get the sender IP without checking through the headers. | 15:43 |
| erUSUL | MTecknology: and wicd needs interfaces for anything? | 15:43 |
| intok | there any issues reported with todays updates to dpkg? | 15:43 |
| BluesKaj | pp__, no audio ? | 15:43 |
| matador_ | sudo add-apt-repository ppa:flozz/flozz don't work | 15:44 |
| matador_ | with the error | 15:44 |
| jrib | matador_: what error? | 15:44 |
| matador_ | sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found | 15:44 |
| jrib | matador_: pastebin: apt-cache policy python-software-properties | 15:44 |
| andycc | MTecknology: well, you shouldn't use /etc/network/interfaces. If you're running a CLI system, better use wicd-curses. | 15:45 |
| pp__ | BluesKaj : no audio AND no video | 15:45 |
| matador_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/497766/ | 15:45 |
| jrib | matador_: you're using jaunty | 15:45 |
| matador_ | yes | 15:45 |
| andycc | MTecknology: actually, if your card is in /etc/network/interfaces, that might be the reason it doesn't work in NM/Wicd/whatever. | 15:45 |
| MTecknology | andycc: oh.. I thought I could tell the interface to just be up that way | 15:45 |
| jrib | matador_: did jaunty have add-apt-repository? | 15:46 |
| matador_ | i'm pretty sure | 15:46 |
| BluesKaj | pp__, which graphics card and what are you connecting the hdmi to ? | 15:46 |
| maedox | matador_, jrib, no :) | 15:46 |
| andycc | jrib: jaunty doesn't have add-apt-repository. | 15:46 |
| matador_ | oh | 15:46 |
| matador_ | well | 15:46 |
| MTecknology | andycc: it's not- there's only auto lo and iface lo inet loopback | 15:46 |
| RobC0 | Is this the proper place to ask a question about "why can't mod_ssl read my certificate file?" under 10.04 ? The apache2 server runs as not-root and the certificate file permissions are set to 644 so...?? | 15:46 |
| matador_ | so how to add that repository? | 15:46 |
| jrib | matador_: the website for the ppa on launchpad has directions | 15:46 |
| andycc | RobC0: maybe try #apache or something. | 15:46 |
| pp__ | BluesKaj : Radeon Mobility HD 5650. laptop is vaio, tv is bravia | 15:47 |
| maedox | RobC0, do you have a specific error message? | 15:47 |
| andycc | RobC0: actually, #httpd | 15:47 |
| BluesKaj | pp__, I have to ask, is the tv set to the proper input ? | 15:48 |

| mikeb123 | sry i just came on, but i need help? | 15:49 |
| maedox | RobC0, do you have a .key file for the certificate? | 15:49 |
| andycc | MTecknology: look at http://wiki.debian.org/NetworkManager | 15:49 |
| matador_ | maybe installing from source is now the best way | 15:49 |
| mikeb123 | can anyone tell me how i can change the menu for os options? | 15:49 |
| andycc | matador_: you need to manually add the ppa to your /etc/apt/sources.list. | 15:49 |
| RobC0 | maedox: yes. and I have verified that my full paths are correct in the conf file. The thing is, this is not my first mod_SSL server set-up. First on Ubuntu, though. | 15:50 |
| andycc | matador_: there should be instructions to do that somewhere. | 15:50 |
| matador_ | i'm on the lunchpad homepage of the project | 15:50 |
| andycc | matador_: link? | 15:50 |
| matador_ | but i can't figure out whcih domain to add | 15:50 |
| matador_ | ok | 15:50 |
| MTecknology | andycc: that applies to wireless too? | 15:51 |
| matador_ | https://launchpad.net/nautilus-terminal | 15:51 |
| andycc | MTecknology: especially to wireless | 15:51 |
| BluesKaj | matador_, add the ppa to your /etc/apt/sources.list | 15:51 |
| mikeb123 | can someone help me plz? | 15:51 |
| maedox | RobC0, I see. I usually put the .crt in /etc/ssl/certs and the .key in /etc/ssl/private that way the permissions are like Apache wants it. I think there might be an issue of permissions. | 15:51 |
| pp__ | BluesKaj : yes, i'm 100 procent sure. I just tried HDMI port 1 and 3 and input 1 and 3, and all i get is a black screen. when i try to set it up in system>pref>monitor it thinks my tv is 72" (it's 32) and when i apply the settings(enable tv screen) i get an xorg error, t doesn't support the resolution size - no matter which resoultion i pick | 15:51 |
| BluesKaj | matador_, then sudo aptitude update | 15:51 |
| MTecknology | andycc: so ONLY 'auto lo' should be in there? | 15:51 |
| matador_ | i'm lookin for the right ppa to add to source.list | 15:52 |
| andycc | MTecknology: yes | 15:52 |
| andycc | matador_: look at https://launchpad.net/~flozz/+archive/flozz | 15:52 |

| kryl | hi | 15:52 |
| mikeb123 | does anyone know how to change the boot menu for the os options? | 15:52 |
| matador_ | very simple | 15:52 |
| maedox | RobC0, if you haven't messed with /etc/ssl/certs and private, the permissions should be "drwxr-xr-x root root" for certs and "drwx--x--- root ssl-cert" for private | 15:53 |
| matador_ | thank you | 15:53 |
| kryl | please, how to use rdesktop to connect to windows 2008 server please ? ? ? | 15:53 |
| matador_ | well done | 15:53 |
| andycc | !error | mikeb123 | 15:53 |
| ubottu | mikeb123: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 15:53 |
| matador_ | have a nice day | 15:53 |
| RobC0 | maedox: Yes, I am following those conventions, too. When I copied the cert file I did chgrp ssl-cert so it would match the snakeoil key permissions. | 15:53 |
| pp__ | BluesKaj and i can't configure through the gfx driver, because i don't have one (ati+ubuntu= -.-) | 15:53 |
| BluesKaj | mikeb123, are talking about the boot screen , grub ? | 15:53 |
| crankygeek01 | I wrote a script for backing up my Ubuntu server, how would I set that up to run on a daily schedule? | 15:53 |
| MTecknology | andycc: that didn't seem to work for me.. I'm using wicd if that changes things much | 15:53 |
| Pici | !cron | crankygeek01 | 15:53 |
| ubottu | crankygeek01: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto - There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm | 15:53 |
| mikeb123 | how do i simplify the menu of which you choose which os to boot into? | 15:53 |

| delarue | hi; my windows seem to jump about from virtual console to virtual console. I'm not sure exactly what triggers it, but it seems to be related to paging through windows; e.g. I put my IRC client on VC1 and now it's on VC3. How do I stop this??? | 15:54 |
| andycc | MTecknology: is your user in the netdev group? | 15:54 |

| maedox | RobC0, alright, good. I'm not sure what's up then. Did you use the certificate before so you know it's good? | 15:55 |
| MTecknology | andycc: yup, in the netdev group | 15:55 |
| andycc | MTecknology: OK, now look at that link :D | 15:55 |
| mikeb123 | thank you | 15:56 |
| delarue | the windows jumping about is happening on a pretty close to default install of 10.04 | 15:56 |
| RobC0 | maedox: no, it's a spanky new cert. I think I am going to try and get it working with a self-signed cert and then switch it out. | 15:56 |
| BluesKaj | pp__, do you have the ati control center installed ? | 15:56 |
| pp__ | blueskaj no | 15:56 |
| pp__ | BluesKaj : i can't install fglrx | 15:57 |
| maedox | RobC0, Alright. Feel free to pastebin some of the config. Or it might be better to try #httpd | 15:57 |

| Seppoz | hello, how do i actually remove a "hidden wlan network" in UNBR? | 15:58 |
| xorwhy | I've run the uptime command two times, each time some time after a cold start and one time it reported 3 users, and another time 5 users. I would normally assume these to be normal TTY's, but the number of users changed. Do I have any reason for concern? | 15:58 |
| MTecknology | andycc: followed that and still nothing... I can connect with iwconfig and dhclient, but wicd doesn't seem to want to work... I'm thinking of hopping back to network-manager | 15:58 |
| andycc | Seppoz: probably by right clicking on networks icon > edit networks | 15:59 |
| andycc | MTecknology: you should try NM too, see if it works. Maybe it's something with Wicd. | 15:59 |

| swiftarrow | Hi everyone! I have a bug report for Lucid, but I have no idea where to report it. It goes like this: When I shut down with a USB HDD mounted, it's mount folder (/media/LABEL) persists on next boot. Therefore, when I boot up, the USBHDD is mounted to /media/LABEL_. This is quite a problem. Any solutions / where can I post this? Thanks! | 16:01 |
| andycc | swiftarrow: somewhere on Launchpad. Dunno which package this pertains to, probably nautilus or something related. | 16:02 |
| swiftarrow | andycc: exactly... was hoping someone here would know something more specific :) | 16:02 |
| swiftarrow | andycc: my guess would be the shutdown system? | 16:03 |
| acidflash | this is frustrating, i am running ubuntu 10.04 server and i am unable to increase the maximum number of file descriptors | 16:03 |
| acidflash | i edit /etc/security/limits.conf and nothing | 16:03 |
| xase | swiftarrow, I don't have a permanent solution... | 16:04 |
| MTecknology | andycc: I like wicd.. it's tiny, efficient... but why can't it 'just work' ? | 16:04 |
| andycc | swiftarrow: report against nautilus, closest I can find. | 16:04 |
| xase | But using the disk mounter applet, to unmount it or right clicking and unmounting before reboot should prevent this. | 16:04 |
| MTecknology | andycc: thanks much :) | 16:04 |
| andycc | MTecknology: you could always write your own app. | 16:04 |
| swiftarrow | xase: yes, but that's not a nice solution :) | 16:04 |
| xase | It's an easy solution though for now. | 16:05 |
| swiftarrow | andycc: I'll see if I can find anything closer first | 16:05 |
| swiftarrow | xase, for me, yes. for Mom, no. | 16:05 |
| xase | Ah! | 16:05 |
| xase | I understand now. :D | 16:05 |
| BluesKaj | pp__, according to this page there is new fglrx prerelease driver available that works , check it out ,https://bugs.launchpad.net/archlinux/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/544638 | 16:05 |

| andycc | swiftarrow: it all makes sense now. | 16:05 |
| xase | as a temporary solution | 16:05 |
| xase | To auto unmount it during shutdown. | 16:05 |
| pp__ | BluesKaj : thanks, i'll try it, can i get back to you if it fails? | 16:06 |

| bullgard4 | What is the function of the executable file /usr/lib/klibc/bin/resume? | 16:06 |

| vjr | hi, using 10.4 LTS speaker turned dumb to sound output, pls help adjustment to alsa mixer had not solved the problem , right now hearing with headphones, what could be the reason for sudden problem ? | 16:06 |
| xase | bullgard4, I believe it pertains to hibernation. | 16:07 |
| andycc | MTecknology: just write a simple bash script that asks you for the ssid and uses /etc/network/interfaces to configure the card. | 16:07 |
| Endrien | I just installed Apache, MySQL, and PHP on ubuntu server, I was able to connect the the apache test page and then I restarted the computer and was no longer able, I tried restarting apache | 16:07 |
| swiftarrow | xase yea, I was just thinking of that... but umount -a run as root would be problematic, would it not? | 16:07 |
| xase | During shutdown? | 16:07 |
| Hald | for some reason I can't select gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad in the updatemanager. why? whats wrong?' | 16:07 |
| bullgard4 | xase: I believe not. Rather you are speaking about /usr/lib/uswusp/resume. | 16:07 |
| MTecknology | andycc: I was thinking that I'll try to debug wicd when I get the chance. That's within my ability (maybe) | 16:07 |
| * bullgard4 afk | 16:07 | |
| andycc | MTecknology: good luck :) | 16:07 |
| xase | why not sudo umount /media/* ? | 16:08 |
| xase | =/ | 16:08 |
| BluesKaj | MTecknology, on lucid ? | 16:08 |
| xase | Not sure the exact allowances of the mount and umount binaries. | 16:08 |
| andycc | swiftarrow: "umount /media/* && rm /media/*" | 16:08 |
| Hald | anyone know what could be the cause when one can't select a package in update manager? | 16:08 |
| andycc | swiftarrow: put it in /etc/rc6.d or something, so it runs on shutdown. | 16:09 |
| swiftarrow | xase, andycc, we're all thinking the same thing. | 16:09 |
| dschuett | anyone know of a good scsi card to use with ubutnu 10.04? | 16:09 |

| swiftarrow | andy, only problem with that is that I have persistant mounts in /media/. I guess I'll just get rid of those :) | 16:09 |
| swiftarrow | andycc ^^ | 16:09 |
| MTecknology | BluesKaj: no, I'll be doing a dual boot to see if a few problems go away but for now I need to stay behind | 16:09 |
| andycc | swiftarrow: oh, I have another idea. | 16:09 |
| xase | well klibc pertains to startup bullgard4 | 16:10 |
| andycc | swiftarrow: hmm, no. That would require the USB HDD to be permanently plugged in. | 16:10 |
| pp__ | BluesKaj can you give me a step-by-step instruction on how to install that driver (including the steps on the homepage), i'm frankly quite confused :S | 16:10 |
| swiftarrow | andycc: I think that this should/could be dealt with by gnome-volume-manager. Since it removes the mountpoints automatically, it ought to just unmount all the drives that it's handling on shutdown... | 16:10 |
| delarue | hi everyone; on 10.04 desktop std install my windows jump about from virtual console to virtual console without me asking them to. I'm not sure exactly what triggers it, but it seems to be related to paging through windows; e.g. I put my IRC client on VC1 and now it's on VC3. How do I stop this??? I've tried searching lots of different places; any suggestions? | 16:11 |
| BluesKaj | ok MTecknology but the wicd wifi bugs are still a prob on lucid , but NM has solved it's wifi probs on lucid , mostly anyway | 16:11 |
| andycc | swiftarrow: but Ubuntu does use the drive's label as folder name in /media/, right? So you can selectively umount your USB HDD if it's there. | 16:11 |
| xase | klibc resume has something to do with hibernate/resume | 16:11 |
| MTecknology | BluesKaj: oh.. good to know I won't try to chase down something that's been fixed :) | 16:11 |

| andycc | pozic: well, use Keryx. | 16:36 |
| duffydack | I have a dvd iso thats 4.4gb, not too large for a dvd as it burns in win7, but in ubuntu its telling me its too big to write to disc even with overburning.. tried brasero and growisofs. what else can I try (non kde) | 16:37 |
| pozic | andycc: ah, cool. Never heard about it. | 16:37 |
| IdleOne | pozic: apt-get install pdfjam | 16:37 |
| andycc | pozic: lets you download packages&deps online. | 16:37 |
| DevoJinx | i tried using xrandr but it doesn't stick | 16:37 |
| pozic | IdleOne: not what I am asking. | 16:37 |
| andycc | s/online/offline | 16:37 |
| pozic | andycc: is that also packaged? | 16:37 |
| andycc | pozic: no. Just go to http://keryxproject.org/ and download. It's a zip file with binaries for Linux, OSX and Windows. | 16:38 |
| pozic | andycc: yes, sure. Although, a shell script could probably also just do it. | 16:38 |
| andycc | The binary in linux/ works perfectly in Ubuntu. Don't forget to check the tutorial. | 16:38 |
| IdleOne | pozic: packages.ubuntu.com | 16:38 |
| pozic | IdleOne: and that requires me to download them by hand one at a time. | 16:39 |
| Perritor | hi there | 16:39 |
| hannes__ | my ubuntu server in virtualbox is getting a 127.0.0.1 address by default. I can get a 192.168. address by running dhclient. but how to make it automatically get the 192.168 address? | 16:39 |
| IdleOne | pozic: sorry then I have no idea what you are trying to do | 16:39 |
| pozic | IdleOne: andycc did. | 16:39 |
| andycc | pozic: there is a guide here: http://crashsystems.net/2009/01/keryx-tutorial/ on how to use Keryx from CLI. | 16:39 |
| pozic | IdleOne: thanks, anyway. | 16:39 |
| andycc | I used it a few times to update offline systems. | 16:39 |
| Perritor | is your google earth crashing? | 16:39 |
| Perritor | in 10.04 | 16:39 |
| berty642- | afternoon all, i want to setup a watched ftp folder so that when i turn on the server it will automatically transfer the files across without asking for confirmation etc, whats the easiest option to achieve this? | 16:40 |
| andycc | Perritor: I don't use Google Earth. It's evil. | 16:40 |
| andycc | Why are you asking? | 16:40 |
| Perritor | andycc: what's the alternative? | 16:40 |
| andycc | Perritor: I use OpenStreetMap when I want to see maps. There's also Marble, but it's incomplete IMO. | 16:41 |
| Perritor | andycc: mine's crashing and I'd like to take a look at some kml's I have | 16:41 |
| rsr | how can I sync videos with android. In macOSX vuze recognizes my phone and no matter what video file I send to it, vuze converts it to the right formar | 16:41 |
| andycc | Sorry, can't help you with that. | 16:41 |
| Perritor | Marble, I'll take a look, thanks | 16:41 |
| Perritor | andycc: thank you very much :) | 16:41 |
| andycc | rsr: I think you can use Miro Video Converter, provided there's a Linux version. | 16:42 |
| terminalvelocity | is there any way to set "xchat" as my background? | 16:42 |
| Perritor | andycc: openstreetmap looks nice | 16:43 |
| rsr | andycc, is it free software? | 16:43 |
| andycc | rsr: I guess so. Haven't used it recently. | 16:43 |
| Ekips | Doesn't Vuze 4.5 support it? | 16:43 |
| Ekips | http://blog.vuze.com/2010/08/05/android-faster-downloads-library-love/comment-page-2/ | 16:43 |
| andycc | rsr: also, isn't there a Vuze version for Linux? | 16:43 |
| rsr | Ekips, it works perfectly on macos | 16:43 |
| rsr | Ekips, on ubuntu repos the version doesnt recognize phones | 16:44 |
| Ekips | Which version is that? | 16:44 |
| rsr | let me check | 16:44 |
| Ekips | Might be 4.4 | 16:44 |
| andycc | !info vuze | 16:44 |
| ubottu | vuze (source: azureus): Multimedia BitTorrent client. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.3.0.6-1 (lucid), package size 7 kB, installed size 84 kB | 16:44 |
| andycc | 4.3 | 16:44 |
| Ekips | Or worse | 16:44 |
| Ekips | Well, apt-get remove and wget ;) | 16:44 |
| mbeierl | euptc: you get it working by running it... oh wait. I think that /was/ your original question - where is your menu entry? From the looks of it - as I'm no zoneminder expert - there is no menu entry. it's run under the apache web browser. You configure it through a URL on the local host | 16:44 |
| rsr | wow 4.3 | 16:44 |
| Ekips | Yeah, it's an old Debian "disease" | 16:45 |
| rsr | the repos are sooooooooooo late | 16:45 |
| Ekips | Well, way of thinking, actually | 16:45 |
| f00bar80 | i did setup pptp vpn server on ubuntu, from my client can't browse internet at the time from the vpn server box browsing is working, i'm asking how to troubleshoot or to know the reason. | 16:45 |
| Ekips | So go give the latest one a shot ;) | 16:45 |
| andycc | rsr: and that is why PPAs exist. | 16:45 |
| akssps011 | I just installed kubuntu on my laptop and the fan speed has increased abruptly too much when I log in | 16:45 |
| akssps011 | What could be the problem | 16:45 |
| andycc | akssps011: depends on what PC/laptop you have. | 16:45 |
| akssps011 | andycc: dell N4010 | 16:46 |
| rsr | I dont mind the ancient stability...but we should have a choice | 16:46 |
| Ekips | Fans can be controlled | 16:46 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: how ? The fan speed is not that high when I log in to windows | 16:47 |
| Ekips | Do you have a /proc/acpi ? | 16:47 |
| andycc | akssps011: Ubuntu cares about your laptop's health more than Windows does. Or it just has a bug. | 16:47 |
| akssps011 | Eyeskips: | 16:48 |
| mikelifeguard | How can I see how big a directory and everything in it is on-disk with `du -h` or something? Just the total. | 16:48 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: yes | 16:48 |
| Ekips | Well, getting lm-sensors op to check the temp couldn't hurt | 16:48 |
| mbeierl | akssps011: or... do you have a lot of desktop effects turned on? high GPU usage can cause fans to turn on | 16:48 |
| Ekips | mikelifeguard: du -hs | 16:48 |
| Ekips | s for summarize | 16:48 |
| mikelifeguard | Ekips: thanks | 16:48 |
| mikelifeguard | I was trying -c | 16:49 |
| Ekips | akssps011: What's in it? | 16:49 |
| Ekips | mikelifeguard: -h and man are nice too ;) | 16:49 |
| akssps011 | mbeierl: I am on power saver mode | 16:49 |
| Ekips | Hrm, --help in case of du | 16:49 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: how to use lm-sensors | 16:49 |
| akssps011 | ? | 16:49 |
| terminalvelocity | ? | 16:50 |
| Ekips | Hrm, sec, have a doc on that in favorites | 16:50 |
| pozic | andycc: it's not clear to me how I can just download all of the dependencies of pdfjam with that program. | 16:50 |
| terminalvelocity | ? | 16:50 |
| Ekips | http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fan_speed_control | 16:50 |
| pozic | andycc: it seems it is just a synaptic clone from my point of view. | 16:50 |
| oracle | man i liked my fucking nokia 3g | 16:50 |
| Ekips | This is lm-sensors setup and fan speed control | 16:50 |
| oracle | thebooklets amazing | 16:50 |
| IdleOne | !language | oracle | 16:50 |
| ubottu | oracle: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 16:50 |
| andycc | pozic: well, it is a Synaptic clone, but one that works on Windows too. What are you trying to do, exactly? | 16:50 |
| Ekips | You can start with apt-get install lm-sensors, of course ;) | 16:50 |
| pozic | andycc: I just want to get all deb files on which pdfjam depends. | 16:51 |
| IdleOne | pozic: man apt-get see the -d option | 16:51 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) | 16:52 |
| akssps011 | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 16:52 |
| Ekips | Uhm, sudo? | 16:52 |
| akssps011 | but I do not have any installation going on | 16:52 |
| akssps011 | ye | 16:52 |
| akssps011 | yes | 16:52 |
| Ekips | Well, guess one is running then | 16:52 |
| IdleOne | akssps011: rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock then try again | 16:52 |
| maco | akssps011: possibly the daily "apt-get update" is running | 16:52 |
| mbeierl | akssps011: don't do the rm just yet... check first | 16:53 |
| akssps011 | maco: mhm..just checked...yes update is going on | 16:53 |
| akssps011 | it's updating packages | 16:53 |
| andycc | pozic: from your online Ubuntu system? Well, upgrade your system, unpack the Keryx archive, run the binary in linux/keryx (it's a graphical app), create a new project, click pdfjam, click Download, wait for it, close Keryx, navigate to the projects/<project name>/packages/ and there they are. | 16:53 |
| akssps011 | and it has healthy 31 minutes remaining | 16:53 |
| andycc | easy. | 16:53 |
| akssps011 | so should I rm and then later restart the update process ? | 16:54 |
| Ekips | Uhm, before you rm a lockfile, always try lsof <file> first to see what's actually using it, if anything | 16:54 |
| llac | when will exactly 10.10 release? | 16:55 |
| quiescens | mm, yeah | 16:55 |
| jpds | llac: 10/10/10 | 16:55 |
| AbhiJit | !10.10 | llac | 16:55 |
| ubottu | llac: Maverick Meerkat is the codename for Ubuntu 10.10, due October 2010 - Maverick is NOT released and NOT Stable, discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 16:55 |
| Drunken | a friend burned a dvd full of pictures but i cannot view any of them. it seems they're all restricted for root access only. how do i bypass this? | 16:55 |
| llac | jpds: wow! | 16:55 |
| quiescens | contrary to popular belief, there is also the possibility that the system is doing a background download of the packages that need updating | 16:55 |
| quiescens | so ekips' advice is a good idea | 16:55 |
| jpds | quiescens: Only if you ask it too. | 16:55 |
| llac | jpds, AbhiJit : thanks! | 16:55 |
| Ekips | It's kinda the reasons lockfiles exist | 16:55 |
| Ekips | If you're just gonna rm them and ignore the error, it might as well not be there :P | 16:56 |
| pozic | andycc: OK | 16:56 |
| AbhiJit | llac, np | 16:57 |
| akssps011 | it says lm-sensors already there but when I run "lm-sensors" itsays not found | 16:57 |
| pozic | andycc: but I also want them for another arch. | 16:57 |
| Ekips | akssps011: run 'sensors' | 16:57 |
| pozic | andycc: that is, I want them for arch x86-64. | 16:57 |
| Squarism | when using SCP in combination with XARGS.. cant one force last argument to be source? like : echo "$listOfFiles" | xargs scp --dest=host:/path/to/ --source | 16:58 |
| yitz_ | Where do I find a checksum for the installer CD | 16:58 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/497811/ | 16:58 |
| andycc | pozic: then edit projects/<project name>/keryx.conf or whatever and change the architecture. | 16:58 |
| Ekips | heh | 16:58 |
| Ekips | You're inside a VM | 16:58 |
| sam_sam | does gddrescue work with NTFS ? | 16:59 |
| andycc | yitz_: on the Ubuntu download page? | 16:59 |
| Ekips | Hrm, or not | 16:59 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: no | 16:59 |
| Ekips | Nah, I get the same on an old laptop | 16:59 |
| yitz_ | andycc: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download ? | 16:59 |
| Ekips | Still, if that's correct (and it should be) your CPU isn't getting warm at all | 16:59 |
| IdleOne | pozic: not trying to be a jerk here but by now you could of downloaded the depends for pdfjam from packages.ubuntu.com | 16:59 |
| Webu | Hmm, is there a simple command to rebuild initramfs like it gets done when upgrading to a new kernel? | 17:00 |
| quiescens | squarism: you can just do something like echo "$listOfFiles" | xargs -I{} scp {} host:/path/to | 17:00 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: hmm...then no issue to worry ? | 17:00 |
| Ekips | Still doesn't tell why your fan is spinning out of control | 17:00 |
| quiescens | squarism: the -I{} means replace the {} in the command with the arguments instead of just putting them at the end | 17:00 |
| Ekips | There shouldn't really be a reason for it to | 17:00 |
| savid | Hi, does php 5.3 come pre-installed with PDO? I'm trying to install a web app and it's saying PDO is not installed. I can't find any packages for PDO. | 17:01 |
| pozic | IdleOne: and how would that work? | 17:01 |
| pozic | IdleOne: there is a whole tree of dependencies. | 17:01 |
| andycc | yitz_: you can also issue a CD check on boot. | 17:01 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: well it is one of the latest laptops in the market..so may be would become more compatible with 10.10 ? | 17:01 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: even 10.04 didn't detect it's n/w card | 17:02 |
| andycc | yitz_: the ISO includes an md5 list which can be automatically checked when you boot from CD. | 17:02 |
| Ekips | No idea about that, to be honest | 17:02 |
| Ekips | ow | 17:02 |
| Ekips | That's not nice at all :p | 17:02 |
| yitz_ | andycc: The point would be to check before burning. I don't see a hash on the site | 17:02 |
| yitz_ | andycc: I guess I could mount the ISO and find the hash... | 17:02 |
| Ekips | Haven't looked at 10.10 yet | 17:02 |
| pozic | andycc: is there a way to change the arch in the GUI? I just changed 32 to 64, but it doesn't really seem to work. | 17:02 |
| Ekips | I'll see it when it's released | 17:02 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: yeah...took nearly weeks to resolve and in the meanwhile I tried 7 OS for it..... | 17:02 |
| andycc | pozic: not yet. | 17:02 |
| Ekips | heh | 17:02 |
| crankygeek01 | I am using PuTTY to ssh into my server, I can open multiple sessions, I have irssi running in one windo and another window I am using for administration and such...my problem is the irssi window is stable and the other window I am using for command line seems to keep freezing after it sits idle for about 20-30 seconds....is there a setting or something I can look at to see if it times out after a certian amount of time? | 17:03 |
| Ekips | Must be a nifty NIC | 17:03 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: and to my surprise only mandriva detected the n/w card out of the box.. | 17:03 |
| andycc | pozic: sorry, I gave you all the advice I could. I never did have the need for x64 packages. | 17:03 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: yeah....a rare atheros one | 17:03 |
| Ekips | Uhm | 17:03 |
| Drunken | a friend burned a dvd full of pictures but i cannot view any of them. it seems they're all restricted for root access only. how do i bypass this? | 17:03 |
| pozic | andycc: ok, well, then I declare it to be a crappy program, since it doesn't solve my problem. :) | 17:03 |
| Ekips | If mandriva detected it, you could have compiled the driver for ubuntu | 17:03 |
| yitz_ | Drunken: mount -oremount,umask=000 | 17:04 |

| sam_sam | can i get a few files back from a healthy partition using gddrescue?on a dual boot (ububtu 9.04+win)when i hibernate ubuntu, in the next windows session i find foo:/system volume information/restore{blahblah}/rc61.log is currupt and unreadable. runchkdsk.. and when i run chkdsk i loose all files created after the restore point of (dumb) windows ..any solution? | 17:04 |
| andycc | pozic: so be it. :D | 17:04 |
| pozic | andycc: the proxy support is also rather silly. It should simply use the system proxy configuration. | 17:04 |
| akssps011 | Ekips: hmm...didn't know it...how do we do that ? | 17:04 |
| Ekips | crankygeek01: I had the same with one specific ISP a few years ago, never got fixed but running screen and now byobu pretty much solves all the issues | 17:04 |
| andycc | pozic: hey, it's not even 1.0 yet. | 17:05 |
| quiescens | crankygeek01: in all likelyhood a router or something is timing out the connection whenever nothing hapens for x seconds, you can enable a keepalive for ssh and see if it helps | 17:05 |
| Ekips | akssps011: Depends, if the drivermod is part of the kernel, download and compile | 17:05 |
| Ekips | If not, download, download the driver and compile :p | 17:05 |
| quiescens | crankygeek01: for putty, it should be under the "Connection" part of the settings window | 17:05 |

| quiescens | crankygeek01: in the grand scheme of things, it probably isn't a big issue if you set it to something short, but ideally it should be just short enough to prevent it from disconnecting, mostly just depends on how much time you are actually getting | 17:08 |

It's just an intel H55 with a core i7, and to my knowledge it has no raid support (fake or other) whatsoever...but when I boot the installer dmraid and device mapper are showing my 2 drives striped? in 10.04 that makes the partitioner fail...in 10.10 i can install but then grub can't find the... | 17:22 |

| mainrain | Dr_Willis: what is ther ebesides launchpad? | 17:50 |
| sacarlson | till_: I assume your adsl box does the dhcp server part | 17:50 |
| hcook | So when I attempt to install Ubuntu 10.04 on an Intel H55/i7 machine with two SATA drives, the livecd runs dmraid and sees the drives as a single, striped fakeraid device, even though this board has no raid support, fake or otherwise, and in fact has win7 happily installed on one of the disks. As a result, the installer fails in partitioning. In 10.10 beta the installer works but then grub... | 17:51 |
| hcook | ...can't find the device. Is there a way around that? That is, can I somehow convince Ubuntu to see the drives as JBOD? Or for that matter can I setup an appropriate partition scheme and then use win7 software raid alongside mdadm in a dual-boot scenario (with the understanding that neither OS would be able to see the other's partitions, and that I'll need to reinstall windows)? | 17:51 |

| till_ | uLinux_: in a nutshell, isc-dhcp-client was removed from my system during an update and since then i tried to re-install various dhcp packages but none of them seem to work with network-manager. the error message i usually get is on the bug report. something about the wrong usage. | 17:53 |
| sacarlson | till_: I'm not sure that your problem is with the dhcp then, it could be your wifi drivers or just not a close enuf connection to wifi. wicd works better for me in wifi | 17:53 |
| till_ | sacarlson: it's an actual problem with dhclient and the network-manager. | 17:54 |
| icarus-c | till_, did you : uninstalled dhclient, install dhcpcd and restart networkmanager ? | 17:54 |
| sacarlson | till_: well try turn off network-manager and run dhclient wlanX and see if it works then | 17:55 |
| till_ | icarus-c: i uninstalled dhcp3-client (there is no dhclient package), i installed "dhcpcd" and restarted. didn't work. | 17:55 |
| till_ | sacarlson: yes it does, but i'd like to keep the network manager ;) | 17:55 |
| sacarlson | till_: wicd is a network manager | 17:55 |
| sam_sam | does (GNU)ddrescue support NTFS ? | 17:55 |
| andycc | sam_sam: ddrescue doesn't have to support NTFS, if I'm right. | 17:56 |

| icarus-c | sam_sam, look, there are plenty decent NTFS recovery program for Windows available | 17:56 |
| andycc | sam_sam: ddrescue only has to copy raw data from one hdd to an image without bad blocks. It's filesystem-agnostic. | 17:56 |

| andycc | DoubleString, mampos: #ubuntu+1 | 17:58 |

| mampos | thank you andy=] | 17:59 |
| andycc | sam_sam: no. ddrescue is basically dd, but works around bad BLOCKS, not directories or files. | 17:59 |

| sam_sam | andycc:ok thanx again | 18:00 |
| andycc | sam_sam: if you have corrupted files, use Windows' chkdsk. | 18:00 |
| till_ | quiescens: yeah, it's very odd. i'm trying to figure out which version of the network-manager i have. maybe there is the issue | 18:00 |
| sacarlson | till_: well if dhclient works with network-manger disabled it seems you isolated your problem | 18:00 |
| sam_sam | andycc:chkdsk deletes files since its last restore point. system volume information is currupt because of hibernation .. the files are intact | 18:01 |
| quiescens | till_: apt-cache policy network-manager is the usual way | 18:01 |
| swiftarrow | andycc thanks for your help... still looking for a solution. I'm thinking that gnome-volume-manager should be made to unmount and remove mount points for all volumes that it mounted at shutdown. | 18:01 |
| andycc | sam_sam: OH, the hibernation problem! Well, ddrescue isn't going to help you with that. | 18:01 |
| till_ | the applet says i'm on 0.8 | 18:01 |
| andycc | swiftarrow: file a bug against gnome-volume-manager then. | 18:01 |

| curtlee1 | ZykoticK9, thanks but that doesn't seem to be what I need :( | 18:13 |

| nprasath002 | swiftarrow:dp i want to install another file browser? | 18:15 |
| swiftarrow | nprasath002: must be something with the contents of the folders. Do you have any file in common between the two? Are these folders full of tonnes of files? | 18:15 |
| nprasath002 | swiftarrow: do i want to install another file browser? | 18:15 |
| swiftarrow | nprasath002: you may want to try thunar, just because it won't try to make thumbnails and get other information for display. That may be what's causing nautilus to hang up. | 18:16 |
| synackfin | I just upgraded from 9.04 to 10.04, but all the window buttons moved (was top-right, now top-left) | 18:16 |

| curtlee1 | upgrading to Maverick has plagued me with "Please set a terminal type." problems, but a fresh install doesn't have that problem | 18:18 |
| andycc | curtlee1: #ubuntu+1 | 18:18 |
| Dr_Willis | curtlee1: check value of the TERM variable | 18:18 |
| curtlee1 | well, it is blank | 18:19 |
| theparadox | Funny though when I input the command without sudo It finds the files but I get permission denied. Ironically when I give it sudo it throws the syntax error at me gain | 18:19 |
| Dr_Willis | $ echo $TERM | 18:19 |
| Dr_Willis | xterm | 18:19 |

| Oer | !resetpanels > Oer | 18:20 |
| Dr_Willis | curtlee1: export TERM=xterm perhaps? | 18:20 |
| ubottu | Oer, please see my private message | 18:20 |
| Pici | curtlee1: Maverick isn't supported here, please use #ubuntu+1 instead. | 18:20 |
| andycc | theparadox: replace #!/bin/sh with #!/bin/bash at the top of the script. That might work, although it shouldn't be important if you use "bash ./script.sh" to run it instead of just "./script.sh". | 18:20 |

| swiftarrow | Same thing can be done adding the new .desktop files to ~/.local/share/applications/ instead of modifying the installation files in /usr/share/applications. | 18:26 |
| mrandrzejak | whats ubuntu+1 ? a different irc? | 18:26 |

| hcook | Trian3: empathy seems nice, but it has one absolutely fatal flaw in my opinion: you can't setup accounts without saving their passwords to gnome-keyring. so if you (like me) have several people with access to the single ubuntu user (and that user's password) there's no way to keep them out of your gtalk. this has been filed as a bug since at least 9.10, but they went and made empathy the... | 18:30 |
| hcook | ...default IM client anyway. i'm still using pidgin. | 18:30 |
| Trian3 | Djones: Gnome. Thanks, though. | 18:30 |
| theparadox | Okay this may sound super simple. I already used insmod to add the module though oddly.... | 18:31 |

| theparadox | cp: cannot stat `wl.ko': No such file or directory | 18:31 |
| Trian3 | Hcook: That's very good to know. I'm the only user, so it wouldn't affect me as much, but I don't like the idea, nonetheless. | 18:31 |
| andycc | theparadox: sudo !! | 18:31 |

| hcook | Ichat: i have 2 sata hard drives. my motherboard (ASUS P7H55-M PRO) doesn't even *have* raid, fake or otherwise. no bios settings for it whatsoever. i simply installed win7 on the first hard drive, no problem. but then the ubuntu installer didn't see either drive. so i look in disk util and it shows a striped fakeraid device the size of my 2 drives combined. dmsetup ls shows the same. and... | 19:00 |
| hcook | ...the installer won't go past partitioning. | 19:00 |

| Ichat | chook - does your wondows OS see both disks as one? | 19:01 |
| vatts | NOTHING, it just shows _ and doesnt do a shit | 19:02 |
| JohnFlux | I end up getting a full 4-bar strength wireless connection to myself | 19:02 |
| Ichat | vatts, - did you mount the iso ;) | 19:02 |
| vatts | Ichat, i've chosen "test it live" ... | 19:02 |
| hcook | Ichat: well, more specifically the 10.04 amd64 desktop installer won't go past partitioning. the 10.10 beta will allow me to select weird /dev/mapper/sil_<hex> devices and will install into them...but when i try to boot into the system grub can't find those devices | 19:02 |

| vatts | kk | 19:05 |
| hcook | Ichat: no, the windows installer shows the two drives separate. and no raid has ever happened to these drives | 19:05 |
| diogo_79 | can some one tell how can i change the suspend script in ubuntu 10.04?? | 19:05 |
| Ichat | hcook - teh problem you MAY have, seems familiar to me... IF you can really whipe one of the drives.... it may be esee fixable | 19:05 |
| diogo_79 | is that possible | 19:05 |
| FunkyDude | hmm, i can't join it, must be full or something | 19:06 |
| hcook | Ichat: so what, just dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda it? | 19:06 |
| mobasher | diogo_79: why would u do that ? | 19:06 |
| Ichat | hcook try for me installing windows on the 2nd drive also, remove app parttions and create a single new one, than go ahead installing up untill the part where windows is coppying files... | 19:06 |
| vatts | vga=791 right Ichat | 19:07 |
| Ichat | vatts try - it | 19:07 |
| diogo_79 | because i am having some trouble to resume from a suspend state on my samsung x30 laptop | 19:07 |
| vatts | it reads completely.......... NOTHING :\ | 19:07 |
| Ichat | hcool than just abord install and try again with ubuntu | 19:07 |
| FunkyDude | in "/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini" I set "error_reporting = E_ALL | E_STRICT" and "display_errors = On", but after restarting apache, it doesn't show errors when I load a webpage, just a blank page, anyone know what I might be doing wrong? | 19:07 |

| toonacid | Hey, I need to find every file in a directory (find foo -type f), then move all of those to all directories found by (find bar -type d -regex ".*bar"). I have "mv `find foo -type f` `find bar -type d -regex ".*bar"`", but it's no surprise it doesn't work for me. Any ideas how to do this? I'm going to be using it for a cron job.. | 19:08 |
| diogo_79 | and if i execute the following commands(vbetool dpms off and vbetool dpms on) the resume succeeds | 19:08 |
| FunkyDude | i registered yesterday tho, how often does one need to register | 19:09 |

| diogo_79 | ok thanks | 19:10 |
| Rigorm0rtis | toonacid, consider piping the output of your find commands into xargs | 19:10 |
| FunkyDude | how about now? | 19:10 |
| toonacid | Rigorm0rtis: I tried that, but I couldn't figure out how to do it correctly while still making it work, because I'm dealing with all files in dir a being moved into every directory command b outputs. | 19:11 |
| Rigorm0rtis | toonacid, are you trying to organize a bunch of files by their extension? | 19:11 |
| Ichat | vatts, sorry for the dellay atm im not completely sure when mounting the cdrom you do get a bootmenu right? | 19:11 |
| jrib | toonacid: why do you want to do such a thing? | 19:12 |
| hcook | Ichat: ok, i'll give it a shot...it's the first idea of any kind i've heard; thanks ;-) | 19:12 |
| vatts | yes | 19:12 |
| vatts | ! | 19:13 |
| toonacid | Rigorm0rtis: No, all I need is all files found in dir foo to be moved to every directory find finds in dir bar. | 19:13 |
| toonacid | jrib: I'm creating a makeshift global SVN hooks. It copies all SVN hooks in a global directory, and places them into the hooks dir of all repositories hook dirs found. | 19:13 |
| Ichat | hcook im still trying with one disk if i can make it work on like - but the win fix is quickes - lol for the first time since long i appreciated the dumbness of the windows installer :P | 19:13 |
| jrib | toonacid: did you try asking the svn people if there's a better way? Your solution seems rather kludgy | 19:14 |
| Rigorm0rtis | toonacid, okay. I'm still trying to figure out what you want to do. So you want to take the files from a directory foo, and place a copy inside of every directory inside of a directory named bar? | 19:14 |
| Ichat | vatts ?? | 19:14 |
| vatts | Ichat, I DO get the boot menu! | 19:15 |
| Ichat | vatts - try removing the quiet argument from your boot options i might give you an error of sorts | 19:16 |
| jgd | does anyone know where i can find something like this ( https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-maintenance-check ) but works on lucid??? | 19:16 |
| KeithChester | huh that floodbot thing is new. anyway, i am running a VPN on my computer somtimes for work, but I have greatly limited internet access when i run the VPN. How can I get it set up so that I can run some programs (chrome, pidgin, etc) with my normal internet connection and others (apache, firefox, etc) using the vpn connection? | 19:17 |
| hcook | Ichat: you know that's not a bad plan...wonder if i could just unplug the windows drive while i install ubuntu | 19:17 |
| toonacid | Rigorm0rtis: Let me see if I can re-explain this. find svn-hooks -type f will find all files in my global SVN hook directory, and find svn -type d -regex ".*hooks" will find every SVN repository hook directory. I need to move all hook files found in the global SVN hook directory into each repositories hook directory found by find svn -type d -regex ".*hooks" | 19:17 |
| toonacid | jrib: I know, but I couldn't think of a better way. | 19:17 |
| jrib | toonacid: right, so did you ask the svn channel? | 19:18 |
| jiohdi | anyone trying unity? | 19:18 |
| toonacid | jrib: I haven't. | 19:18 |
| jrib | toonacid: I would do that first | 19:18 |

| turtle_ | looking around on google didn't see any mention of handbrake | 19:23 |
| erUSUL | syli725: gnomeshell is part of gnome3 with other techs. " Is gnomeshell gnome3? " short answer would be yes | 19:23 |
| FlexGuy | handbrake -> drifting | 19:23 |
| syli725 | erUSUL: thanks for the reply. I just don't like gnome-shell. it looks very weird to me. It doesn't look like a desktop manager anymore. That's why I am asking this question. If gnome3 will look like gnome-shell, I am thinking to switch to kde4. | 19:24 |

| kp | I have a 3 disk setup, and i want to make a raid 5 of it with ubuntu server. I can see that the installer allows me to create my raid, but i read that there are problems with booting into a raid 5. | 19:29 |
| ActionParsnip | syli725: there are vids on youtube | 19:29 |
| kp | Do i have to be carefull about it? | 19:29 |
| Rigorm0rtis | toonacid, so you're not doing a simple move, you're copy one file to multiple directories? How about something like find svn -type d -regex ".*hooks" | while read dir; do find svn-hooks -type f | xargs -Ifile cp "file" ${dir}; done I think you might want something like that. | 19:29 |

| slyboots | So.. | 19:49 |
| theparadox | God broadcom drivers suck. They drop off every few minutes on a WPA2 network | 19:49 |
| === Smoodo is now known as Smoodo_Office | ||
| WhiteDawn | theparadox, ive been having WPA2 problems recently aswell, im on intel wireless though | 19:49 |
| slyboots | Yea, I would really like to know, why my server now ekeps emailing me with the message "start: Job is already running: anacron" | 19:49 |
| theparadox | ^Its really really annoying | 19:50 |
| WhiteDawn | theparadox, does yours actualy DC? mine just drops packets and NM says im still connected | 19:50 |
| theparadox | I just spent 3hrs compiling and debugging the drivers and dicking with them to get them to work and it still does it | 19:50 |
| theparadox | Yep | 19:50 |
| theparadox | Completely drops then reconnects | 19:50 |

| theparadox | Andycc I got the drivers all working finally | 19:51 |
| theparadox | :) But they still drop off like the precompiled ones ubuntu has in the repo | 19:51 |
| theparadox | Im thinking it could be a Power Management thing. Like it turns off the Wlan card to save power? | 19:52 |
| WhiteDawn | theparadox, might be, but when its connected it shouldent turn off the wlan card. Does the wifi light on the computer turn off when u drop? | 19:53 |
| theparadox | Laptop^ No wifi light | 19:53 |
| WhiteDawn | theparadox, no wifi light on your laptop? u could try runing ifconfig to see if the interface is still up, AKA on | 19:54 |

| WhiteDawn | turtle_, have u tried updating the firmware on the router? Wireless N is a tricky thing to get working, even in windoes | 20:04 |
| theparadox | I see. I had to compile the modules and a bunch of other stuff to get them working because the precompiled ones that came with the kernel would drop every few seconds. | 20:04 |
| dream | ulziibuyan, ^ | 20:04 |
| abedra | Gnea: it's displayed as part of the install in a curses window | 20:04 |

| turtle_ | cheers for your help tho | 20:05 |
| theparadox | Dream I assume you have all the proper drivers for your GPU? | 20:05 |
| dream | ulziibuyan, u mean system > preferences >display ? | 20:05 |
| theparadox | Dream, are you working on a server machine? Most only support that resolution. | 20:05 |

| dream | Gnea, how do i chk that ? | 20:09 |
| Rapp | hi everybody | 20:10 |
| Gnea | dream: open a terminal and type: lspci | grep VGA | 20:10 |
| WhiteDawn | dream, the video card is suposed to display all the resolutions that the monitor supports. If somewhere along the way the videocard could not get that data from the monitor, it wont let you use any video modes to be safe | 20:10 |
| andycc | Hi, Rapp. | 20:10 |

When I open up the sound preferences dialogue, the "ALSA plugin" flickers in the Applications tab, which according to the internet, is indicative of the connection dropping frequently. Any ideas? | 20:18 |

| xangua | no, i said using 64bit OS might be a problem since the flashplugin it uses is 32bit and it uses an extra plugin to force flashplugin to work | 20:26 |
| EvilRoey | andycc: ah thanks, didn't realize it | 20:26 |
| tripelb | ulziibuyan: yes live CD works fine AFAIK until I start the install or the partitioner. (so far so good) | 20:26 |
| xangua | quantumlemur: * see above | 20:26 |
| ulziibuyan | tripelb: could you come online from the liveCD? so that i could try to help. | 20:26 |
| Adluc | Hello, I am installing ubuntu-netbook from Wubi, now it is downloading 3rd time - In C:/ubuntu/install there is file ubuntu-10.04-netbook-i386.iso which is increaing from 0b to 700MB, then it flush and start again | 20:27 |
| Jordan_U | dream: When you say "vendor graphics driver", what do you mean? You installed from a website? | 20:27 |
| tripelb | I'll try. if not now, later. TY!! | 20:27 |
| xangua | quantumlemur: you may want to use the 32bit version to avoid this and other little issues in th future or wait until adobe delivers a new flashplugin for 64bit | 20:27 |
| dream | no i didnt ..but its some NVIDIA | 20:28 |
| dream | Jordan_U, ^ | 20:28 |
| quantumlemur | xangua, I see. However, I did have flash audio working in the past. Do you mean that I should use the 32bit version of ubuntu as a whole? I probably cannot reload the machine | 20:28 |
| xbonesx | where do the packages save to when you use synaptic package manager to install stuff? | 20:28 |
| Jordan_U | dream: Did you just enable the driver from Hardware Drivers or did you do something else? | 20:29 |
| dream | enabled from hardware drivers | 20:29 |
| dream | as u told me | 20:29 |
| dream | Jordan_U, ^ | 20:29 |
| Jordan_U | xbonesx: /var/cache/apt/archives/ | 20:29 |
| xangua | you could also try the development 64bit plugin (under your own risk) http://www.webupd8.org/2010/09/adobe-flash-player-square-102-64bit.html | 20:30 |

| quantumlemur | xangua, I can try that. but first, I'm in the process of trying to reinstall (or uninstall) the existing flash packages, and both adobe-flashplugin and flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound show up as "ip" in an aptitude search, which would seem to be a contradiction. I can't remove them because it says they aren't installed | 20:32 |
| dream | Jordan_U, i am finding font little small ...butthat may be just my feel coz of this big change in the display | 20:32 |
| EvilPhoenix | aeon-ltd: so how do I tar a directory and its subdirs? | 20:32 |
| aeon-ltd | EvilPhoenix: tar -c filename (well shouldn't it be anyways) | 20:32 |
| dream | Thanks to you Jordan_U ! | 20:32 |
| lpmail-at-emailf | can a coder here teach me how to make a zener card program | 20:33 |

| Sogorukuhn | sjm: That wouldn't help. The the private key is on my laptop and not on the ssh server in the office | 21:07 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, i would point the finger at a particular apache module before anything else | 21:07 |
| Adluc | Where is the problem ? | 21:07 |
| trism | quantumlemur: you have the incorrect flash package installed (probably either gnash or swfdec), you should find and remove those, and install flashplugin-installer | 21:07 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, Either that, or mysql is you're installing a version of mysql with known memory leak issues | 21:07 |
| dlyneswork | s/is/if/ | 21:08 |
| arleslie | Adluc: how are you installing then all of a suddenr redownloading? | 21:08 |
| quantumlemur | trism, yeah, I'm trying to find and remove it, but not having any luck. Specifically with the finding part. There does exist /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin. Should (can?) I just delete that dir? | 21:08 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, hm ok! It's a "clean" install + the rewrite module which I activated. | 21:08 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, mysql is the latest one you get by doing apt-get install mysql-server | 21:08 |
| xbonesx | Jordan_U: I noticed that the APTonCD doesnt the auto updated packages... for instance when i first connect to the net after doing a fresh install of ubuntu 10.04 im prompted to do an update, how can i include these packages in the cd? | 21:08 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, that's the only module you're using? which ubuntu are you using? | 21:08 |
| sjm | Sogorukuhn, you can "forward" your "agent" and it should work. | 21:09 |
| sjm | check /etc/ssh_config | 21:09 |
| sjm | Sogorukuhn, check /etc/ssh_config | 21:09 |

| koltroll | dlyneswork, 23 modules enabled =) | 21:10 |

| arleslie | Adluc: are you using wubi to install? | 21:10 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, can you pastebin a list of them? | 21:10 |

| koltroll | sure! | 21:10 |
| arleslie | Adluc: I don't mess around much with wubi, sorry | 21:11 |
| Sogorukuhn | Ok. Auth forwarding works very fine. Thanks | 21:11 |
| quantumlemur | trism, no gnash, no swfdec, and adone-flashplugin lists as "ip". I can't unsinstall it because it's not installed, and I can't install it because it's not downloadable. However, I did find the ff config plugin.expose_full_path, and it's definitely using /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin | 21:12 |

| nordin | LD_......PATH? | 21:22 |
| trism | quantumlemur: might be a good idea, would purge flashplugin-installer first though, then install it locally to ~/.mozilla/plugins to test it out | 21:22 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, I'm not familiar with mod_authz...this is why I'm going through this exercise...also which version of php5 do you have installed? | 21:23 |
| tsolox | i'm basically, finding out why i cannot talk to another machine.i do traceroute, Does it mean, that first box where time out happens is the culprit? | 21:23 |
| sjm | tsolox, not necessarily. It usually just means that that box doesn't respond to pings | 21:23 |
| dlyneswork | tsolox, it could, or it could also mean that the first host responds to the port that traceroute is trying to probe | 21:23 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/pnkdXta4 | 21:24 |
| dlyneswork | tsolox, for a different view, try using traceroute -I | 21:24 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, PHP Version 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.5 | 21:24 |
| dlyneswork | tsolox, or traceroute -p xx, where xx is a udp port you wish to probe | 21:24 |

| GauravButola | when I am installing a new version of ubuntu and do not want to affect my seperately created /home directory. what should I do at the manual partion time? | 21:25 |
| === Greysc[a]le is now known as Greyscale | ||
| dlyneswork | koltroll, ok...weird...it seems like it's specifying it inside your .load files, instead of using symbolic links to the shared objects....anyways...when you're experiencing these memory leaks | 21:26 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, is it after you've visited some of the php websites on that install? | 21:27 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, yes. and I -belive- it to be when I'm using a file upload. | 21:27 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, i would start looking there for your memory leak, then | 21:27 |
| GauravButola | anybody? on the above mentioned question plz.... | 21:27 |
| madjoe | hello! any hints on how to translate a .glade to .ui file in /usr/share/gnome-screensaver? | 21:27 |
| aeon-ltd | GauravButola: but do you want to keep the old / partition? | 21:28 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, a lot of php programmers abuse php, and do things they shouldn't be doing, and so don't put the proper checks in place | 21:28 |
| BluesKaj | GauravButola, install the OS to / , the partitoner will see the /home dir and as long as you don't choose it for formatting or any other changes your /home dir won't be affected | 21:28 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, code-wise, the exact same code is beeing used in producton mode on another server. No memory leaks there - that we have noticed :) | 21:28 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, and I bet you're trying to upload some nasty size file, too | 21:28 |
| GauravButola | i want /home to be safe, dont want any data lose | 21:28 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, just because crappy code works on one server and doesn't work on the other doesn't mean it's not crappy :0 | 21:28 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, the files are at 350kb max. Some medium sized images. | 21:28 |
| GauravButola | BluesKaj: someone said I'll have to mount / and /home first. but how do i mount them during the installation | 21:29 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, ok, so it's not boundary code that's leaking probably, then...it could be processing code or something else, though | 21:29 |
| Jigal | hello how do i get out of the low-graphics mode? My 10.04 lts startsup every time in low-graphics mode. It started when i wanted to install an external monitor | 21:29 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, your images get processed after they're uploaded, right? | 21:29 |
| GauravButola | BluesKaj: installer doesn't even recognize the old / and /home | 21:29 |
| patcito | hey | 21:30 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, yes! | 21:30 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, try checking in the processing code, then | 21:30 |
| patcito | what package do I need to install to get java applet to work in the browser? | 21:30 |
| xbonesx | sjm: im pretty sure i had like 106mb of updates for the system and there's definitely not 1006mb worth of updates in the archive folder | 21:30 |
| aeon-ltd | !java | patcito | 21:30 |
| ubottu | patcito: 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. | 21:30 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, could be some data structures get allocated, and never freed | 21:30 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, this other server's not running the same version of php, is it? | 21:31 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, is there some way to "log" processes or anything so that I could actually confirm that php starts some processes, or alot of processes, that takes alot of memory? | 21:31 |
| xbonesx | anyone have have any gnome theme changing application they would recommend? | 21:31 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, not sure. probably not since it's not as up to date. | 21:31 |
| koltroll | no, it cannot possibly run the same php version. | 21:31 |
| BluesKaj | GauravButola, use the manual partitioning option in order to mount the / and /home partitions | 21:31 |
| koltroll | It must be about 6-12 months older | 21:31 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, valgrind, if apache plays nice with it | 21:32 |
| GauravButola | please someone provide me with a "How to" on a clean install without affecting /home | 21:32 |
| MarkSS | What is the equivalent of tracert in Linux commandline? | 21:32 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, i've had memory leaks with that version of php as well, but it only happens in one particular php application | 21:32 |
| dlyneswork | MarkSS, traceroute | 21:32 |
| MarkSS | heh, thanks | 21:32 |
| Jordan_U | MarkSS: tracepath or traceroute | 21:32 |
| lloshi | hello | 21:32 |
| MarkSS | Any difference between the two that I should know about? | 21:33 |
| Jordan_U | MarkSS: tracepath does not require administrator priveleges. | 21:33 |
| madjoe | is there a way to use my .glade file for a screen lock theme on my Karmic? | 21:33 |
| Destoned | hi jerry | 21:33 |
| MarkSS | Apparently it is the only one installed by default too | 21:33 |
| patcito | !partner | 21:33 |
| ubottu | Canonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » | 21:33 |
| Jordan_U | MarkSS: And traceroute isn't installed by default in Ubuntu. | 21:33 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, this is also one particular php application now that you mention it. It's not a problem with file uploads over all. Because I've been uploading some images on another php app, and they get processed as well. But works fine there. hm. | 21:33 |
| dlyneswork | Jordan_U, nor does traceroute, unless you run it with the '-I' parameter | 21:33 |
| Destoned | anyone able to tell me how to use themes and where to get them | 21:33 |
| jerry_ | how do i tell if the wine program works | 21:34 |
| Jordan_U | dlyneswork: But only because it's setuid root. | 21:34 |
| aeon-ltd | jerry_: uhh try it? :) | 21:34 |
| aeon-ltd | !gnomelook | 21:34 |
| jerry_ | how do i get to it | 21:34 |
| GauravButola | BluesKaj: ok... correct me if I am wrong (it could turn out to be quite nasty for me otherwise), I'll go to manual partition and mount the /home but wont check the format box and put my OS on a / . Do I have to create the same username this time also. | 21:34 |
| aeon-ltd | jerry_: installing it | 21:34 |

| jerry_ | i did and it just goes away after its done | 21:35 |
| ubuntu | oo | 21:35 |
| dlyneswork | Jordan_U, On ubuntu 9.04 neither tracepath nor traceroute is installed setuid | 21:35 |
| ubuntu | I Am Ubuntu! | 21:35 |
| fedora_newb | Is there anything special you have to do on ubuntu to have the web show webpages of the localhost? I have my router pointed to ubuntu with port 80. | 21:35 |
| BluesKaj | GauravButola, the install procedure will still ask for username and pw | 21:35 |
| BluesKaj | GauravButola, using the previous users and pws is best | 21:36 |
| ubuntu | how do i change my name color in irc? | 21:36 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, what was the problem with your php app ? | 21:36 |
| aeon-ltd | ubuntu: its part of your theme | 21:37 |
| Jordan_U | dlyneswork: sorry, guess I am remembering wrong. | 21:37 |
| aeon-ltd | ubuntu: on whatever client your using | 21:37 |
| jerry_ | i installed wine but idk if it works im new to this | 21:37 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, no idea...don't have the time to figure it out, but it was SugarCRM | 21:37 |
| GauravButola | BluesKaj: But if I want to create a different username, does it still keeps the /home's data. | 21:37 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, hm ok. | 21:37 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, and SugarCRM is a pretty complicated application | 21:37 |
| Shinydan | hello all | 21:38 |
| koltroll | dlyneswork, well I'll look into valgrind as you mentioned and see if I get anywhere. Thanks alot for all your help and time! | 21:38 |
| simbaa | hello, i got a network sharing problem | 21:38 |
| BluesKaj | GauravButola, you'll have to chmod the dirs with the new username | 21:39 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, no problem...fwiw, valgrind spits out a lot of spam | 21:39 |
| jerry_ | how do i open wine | 21:39 |
| dlyneswork | koltroll, you'll want to specify the memcheck tool when using valgrind | 21:39 |
| wolfric | anyone know how to clear the input. let's say you're tying something in that doesn't appear like a password and you make a mistake. i saw someone do it before with a hotkey or shortcut | 21:39 |

| koltroll | dlyneswork, I got some reading up to do :) | 21:41 |
| GauravButola | BluesKaj: ok... thanks for the help. I think I wont take a risk of creating a new Username pw, but stick to the same so that I get the same things and I dont have to dig into chmod or anything else. well thanks alot for the help.... | 21:41 |

| ChogyDan | Shinydan: chrome has a tool to tell you exactly what is using it within chrome, sometimes it is flash | 21:43 |

| erUSUL | mmm4m5m: do not think you can mount bind files | 21:45 |

| Soraya | hi guys,i want to share on loacl network and im missing http://imagebin.org/115063 | 21:50 |
| JodaZ | pehden, giving sql users system users is not a good idea, neither is adding system users with php, a fault at any point will allow system compromise | 21:51 |
| Soraya | VirtualBox is the best when having problems with windows apps | 21:51 |
| JodaZ | pehden, i do not believe mysql can use system users for login, but that is a question for the mysql channel | 21:51 |
| Lars_G | JodaZ: it could, thorough apache auth, using pam. | 21:51 |
| pehden | I want to be able let users create an account on my site and have access to the email via the same pasword | 21:52 |
| JodaZ | Lars_G, that makes little sense | 21:52 |
| JodaZ | pehden, what kind of account ? | 21:53 |
| nittypr | -m server irc.kosovachat.com | 21:53 |
| Lars_G | pehden: Email account? | 21:53 |
| pehden | its a system email account as in the send and recieve from the domain | 21:53 |
| pehden | Lars_G yes | 21:53 |
| Lars_G | pehden: it's much safer and better if you use a mail setup based on database rather than system users | 21:53 |
| JodaZ | pehden, it does not sound like you would need to do anything with the system accounts... | 21:53 |
| Lars_G | pehden: With a system like postfix+MySQL+courier/dovecot where the email addresses and passwords are stored on a database | 21:54 |
| pehden | where is this database | 21:54 |
| Lars_G | The database is in any machine you want, the same one for example. | 21:55 |
| Lars_G | It can be a MySQL database, or postgresql, or sqlite even | 21:55 |
| Shinydan | Ok. Think I've fixed the problem. Thanks all | 21:55 |

| pehden | Lars_g thanks | 22:09 |
| jrib | Shwaiil: if you really need to start and stop the server that much and feel like "sudo service apache2 stop" is too much typing, create an alias. Or if you want some sort of clickable thing which imo is less efficient, write a one line shell script you click on. Honestly though, I don't see why you would be starting and stopping the server so often for it to be an issue | 22:10 |

| Adzy_ | does anyone know how to find out what version of grub is running without restarting??? | 22:18 |
| edbian | tripelb, gparted is a graphical app. It by definition will not work in the term. | 22:18 |
| edbian | Adzy_, aptitude show grub | 22:19 |
| Adzy_ | ;) | 22:19 |
| edbian | Adzy_, No prob | 22:19 |
| tripelb | edbian, that's what I mentioned I thought to ul--- earlier who told me to try it. How about the nongraphical version? | 22:20 |
| Jackethan | Thank you Chowder! Also, I tried messing with my cursors a while back, I got a custom one to work successfully but at my login screen it uses the penguin cursor for some reason, and on occasion the penguin will stay around once I log in. Any ideas how to fix that? | 22:20 |
| Adzy_ | edbian _ it says state: not installed. But my computer boots into grub??? | 22:21 |
| edbian | tripelb, The cli version of the partition editor is fdisk. It is hard to use. Don't ask me how to use it, I don't know how. | 22:21 |
| edbian | Adzy_, ha? Strange? Maybe there is a new package name. grub2 or something? | 22:21 |
| tripelb | My problem: ubuntu will not install. Something goes wrong while starting up the partitioner. I am on a liveCD now. (The CD is fine, triplechecked. Same issue with USB server install, 10.04) | 22:21 |
| turtle_ | anyone got any experience with mkv2vob with ps3 and MediaTomb? :] | 22:22 |
| tripelb | Anyone here use fdisk? I did when the drive was new. Then gparted worked. Then gparted didnt. I'm lost still. | 22:22 |
| Trian3 | So, I'm trying to setup Samba for the first time. Never touched it before. It's a little overwhelming to take it all on at once, even though it is a simple household LAN I'm setting up. Anyway, does the SWAT interface come recommended? Any downsides to using it vs manual editing? | 22:23 |
| duffydack | I use fdisk somewhat. | 22:23 |
| xbonesx | does anyone know where the files for controls downloaded from gnome art are store when installed to appearance preferences? | 22:23 |
| poi77 | Hi! I need to figure out what type of link there is between two files. Can I do this using ls -lth? | 22:23 |
| jrib | poi77: probably, yeah. | 22:23 |
| alkisg | tripelb: so if you run `sudo gparted` from a terminal, what do you get? | 22:24 |
| poi77 | jrib: Thanks! Do you know what I am looking for in the output> | 22:24 |
| edbian | poi77, ls -la | 22:24 |
| jrib | poi77: symlinks will have a --------> when you ls -l :) | 22:24 |
| poi77 | jrib, edbian: Thanks! What you hard links have? | 22:24 |
| chowder | Jackethan: you have to set the default cursor for X. This is usually done with a .Xdefaults file in your home directory. | 22:25 |
| edbian | poi77, That makes no sense? What I hard links have? | 22:25 |
| poi77 | Sorry, I mean what would hard links have? | 22:25 |
| chowder | Jackethan: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/X11_Cursors remember, google is your friend | 22:26 |
| Jackethan | Thanks again Chowder :D | 22:26 |
| edbian | poi77, Also a little arrow I think? Not sure | 22:26 |
| poi77 | edbian: Thanks, I am trying to distinguish between the two | 22:27 |
| erUSUL | poi77: nothing; a hardkink is just aanother name for the same data. the number in the second column of ls -l will be > 1 (counting how may harlinks point to the same data ) | 22:27 |
| Bambr | hi, i've got problem with my wireless card working no so good, i've got 10.4, Xubuntu installed on Zotac Maghd-nd01, lspci command gives AR9285 for network device, tried installing backport wireless drivers - still, network connection quality is poor. computer and wifi ap are in the same room and signal strength is shown around 30-40% only, any advice? | 22:27 |
| chowder | no problem, but in the future try and google your answers before you ask here at IRC. Don't take it the wrong way but lots of questions that newbies ask have been asked 10000000000 times already. It just saves room for the more difficult questions. | 22:27 |
| tripelb | duffydack hi should I tell you the entire story? Heh. ... latest: I installed windows using the long slow formatting (I thought I tried to start ubuntu and it wouldnt work.) NOW gparted just started. But a few minutes ago I finished checked the memory. Before that a 9.04 boot failed for a HAL check, it said, but I was trying to move the mouse cursor-did the mess it up? Before that a USB server install stalled during partitioner startup a | 22:27 |
| jrib | poi77: you can look at the "number of hard links" column in ls -l :) ls has some option to add special characters and also color code stuff, that would let you discern between the type of links too. | 22:28 |
| poi77 | erUSUL: Thanks very much | 22:28 |
| poi77 | jrib: Thanks | 22:28 |
| chowder | Bambr: that looks like you're using an atheros card | 22:28 |
| Bambr | chowder: yup, it it is Atheros | 22:28 |
| Bambr | chowder: any clue how can i get connection quality/signal strength up? | 22:29 |
| chowder | Bambr: no idea. Have you tried googling your issue? | 22:29 |
| Bambr | chowder: yup, it gave me idea to install backport drivers, but it didn't help | 22:30 |
| chowder | Bambr: I found this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Atheros/AR9285 | 22:30 |
| tripelb | back to no helper. | 22:30 |
| erUSUL | poi77: use readlink to find out if somwething is symlink | 22:30 |
| duffydack | tripelb, I`m lost.. what are you trying to do exactly | 22:31 |
| waht | Will ubuntu run on an HP compaq dc5000sff? | 22:31 |
| tripelb | I have been trying to put ubuntu on this hard drive that I recently (now a month ago) bought. | 22:31 |
| chowder | Bambr: what version of Ubuntu are you using? | 22:31 |
| duffydack | tripelb, does windows use the whole drive | 22:31 |
| tripelb | daffydack - want to install ubuntu on new drive, no longer new 1 month | 22:32 |
| edbian | waht, Probably. Is it x86 arch? | 22:32 |
| edbian | waht, Best way to find out: burn a live CD and try to run it. | 22:32 |
| tripelb | right now I put windows on the whole drive duffydack. Earlier I was just trying with ubuntu. To get the CD out of the picture someone advised me to put the server Ubuntu on a flashdrive, which I did. | 22:33 |
| Bambr | chowder: 10.4, the Xubuntu thingie | 22:33 |
| chowder | Bambr: 32 bit or 64 bit | 22:33 |
| === shcherba1 is now known as shcherbak | ||
| waht | Yeah, intel 4, nothing special just one of those cheap consumer boxes with everyting on the mobo. I need to set up a computer lab and I can get 30 of them used, probably snatched from e-waste, for like 1000 bucks. | 22:34 |
| waht | So yeah | 22:34 |
| duffydack | tripelb, so you want to install server, not desktop | 22:34 |
| chocobanana | Hi everyone!!! | 22:34 |
| tripelb | duffydack: now gparted works. So much time has gone by that I cant remember if I tried it since I did the slow format in ntfs thinking it might clear things out. -- I dont care what I install at this time. | 22:34 |
| Bambr | chowder: guess it's 32bit, i686 it says in uname -a | 22:34 |
| keldrona | hello, would you help me, please. I have installed Joomla on localhost, but I can't install any extension because I'm not opening Firefor and working with Joomla as administrator. How can I do? | 22:34 |
| chocobanana | Who has a clue on why does Ubuntu apparently randomly disables printers from time to time? Happens on Lucid and it happened on previous versions. HP printers... | 22:35 |
| duffydack | tripelb, windows 7 ? | 22:35 |
| edbian | waht, It'll probably be fine. | 22:35 |
| chowder | Bambr: yep, that's 32 bit. I honestly don't know how to increase signal strength on your card. you're better off searching the forums or making a post there | 22:35 |
| root_ | has anyone else had issues with installing themes. after i installed a few themes my gnome-desktop was completely wiped out | 22:36 |
| Bambr | chowder: i'll try those compat drivers, will see if it works | 22:36 |
| tripelb | duffydack: I have 4-5 assorted drives and some CD's with old saved stuff on them - finally I could afford a big drive. -- This is a 2004 Dell with a IDE drive right now at my new SATA drive (into the m'board which has SATA). -- The windows is XPhome. This computer cannot use Win7. | 22:37 |
| waht | Cool, just found it hard to imagine. Thanks for your help. | 22:37 |
| chocobanana | root_: you can always delete the .themes directory in your Home directory to reset it | 22:37 |
| duffydack | tripelb, so what happens when you boot a livecd/liveusb | 22:37 |
| kantxx | anyone know why i cant ssh into my own ubuntu server remotely? ssh user@localhost works and ssh@hostname asks for password but fails.. | 22:37 |
| jrib | kantxx: are you specifying the correct username? | 22:38 |
| root_ | ty chocobanana, i am reinstalling my desktop as we speak. if i delete the .themes folder, will i get my default icons and such back? | 22:38 |
| kantxx | jrib: yes | 22:38 |
| jrib | kantxx: you install anything like denyhosts or fail2ban? You checked /etc/hosts.deny? | 22:39 |
| tripelb | duffydack: (except for the one time it hung on HAL 20 mins ago) it boots fine. (The server USB is only set to install not boot.) | 22:39 |
| chocobanana | root_: yeah, it should be good that way. In the event that that is indeed the cause, you can also use the live cd, mount the partition with your Home folder and delete .themes from there | 22:39 |
| kantxx | jrib: no.. fresh install | 22:39 |
| jrib | kantxx: and ssh localhost asks for a password? | 22:39 |
| kantxx | jrib: and works | 22:39 |
| === Out`Of`Control is now known as Viper | ||
| Viper | Hi, How can i change my "Local PC IP" from terminal? | 22:40 |
| jrib | kantxx: try with ssh -vvv, also check logs on the server | 22:40 |
| duffydack | tripelb, have you tried to install it then from livecd/usb? you`ll need to resize your ntfs though. | 22:40 |
| === Evixion` is now known as Evixion | ||
| Viper | Because There is no connection in NetworkManagerApplet. | 22:41 |
| jrib | kantxx: by the way, when you say "fails", what do you mean? Does it ask you again for a password? | 22:41 |
| kantxx | jrib: yeah it keeps askingfor pass when doing it remotely | 22:41 |
| tripelb | repeating: duffydack: (except for the one time it hung on HAL 20 mins ago) a live CD (9.04,10.04,Fedora11) boots fine. (The server USB is only set to install not boot.) -- yes I have tried and failed many times to install from a live CD (no problem just noting I said this before) and when I have it always breaks when starting gparted. Maybe it will be different today. | 22:41 |
| tripelb | duffydack: since today gparted started up and didnt break. | 22:42 |
| tevoda | I have a constant problem "PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init()" I have curl install so what am I missing? | 22:42 |
| Viper | Any one can help me? | 22:42 |
| duffydack | tripelb, the livecd installer doesnt use gparted. | 22:42 |
| kantxx | im so lost | 22:43 |
| ndxtg | hi everyone. I'm facing a weird problem. I copy files from ext3 partition to ext3 partition on the same HDD/pc but only with 20MB/s speed. Any idea why? | 22:43 |
| jrib | kantxx: did you try what I said? | 22:43 |
| kantxx | jrib: seems fine he output | 22:43 |
| jrib | kantxx: pastebin | 22:43 |
| tripelb | duffydack: sorry I've been at this for weeks and weeks. It didnt work then. It stopped before it displayed the partitioner. | 22:44 |
| Viper | How can i change my "Local IP" from terminal? Because There is no connection in NetworkManagerApplet. Its emtpy | 22:44 |
| supersasho | hi there, i have a problem with my FTP. all the files which are downloaded are corrupted. and it seems that none of the ascii binary auto mode in any client si helping. any idea? | 22:44 |
| Trian3 | I recently installed an app through Synaptic that had a dependency. I now want to uninstall that file as well as the dependency, but I don't remember the name of it. Any way to look it up? | 22:44 |
| duffydack | tripelb, hmm, ok, well the alternative is to use the alternate installer.. | 22:45 |
| jrib | Trian3: apt-get autoremove will do that for you | 22:45 |
| duffydack | tripelb, I mean alternate ubuntu, not server. btw | 22:45 |
| tripelb | How much space do I need to give to each thing when I partition. I'd rather put my data in an partition that all can read. (Originally I didnt want to use windows on that drive. Now I want to make sure I can.) | 22:45 |
| tripelb | duffydack: what's an alternate installer and how does it differ? | 22:45 |
| Adzy_ | olah all! | 22:46 |
| duffydack | tripelb, an ncurses based installer like that of the server cd | 22:46 |
| tripelb | duffydack: (correction noted) what's the alternate ubuntu about? why not the server? what can cause gparted to break like that, and not now? == I dont knwo what ncurses is. | 22:47 |
| tripelb | My brain feels like a squeezed sponge. | 22:47 |
| === Adzy_ is now known as Adzy | ||
| kantxx | jrib: i dont understand.. i stop sshd and it starts itself.. | 22:47 |
| duffydack | tripelb, its a safer method of installing when the livecd doesnt work for you....be it video or other hardware issue | 22:47 |
| tripelb | "Everything I know is wrong." laffs | 22:48 |
| Adzy | Hello | 22:48 |
| jrib | kantxx: are you sure? If you have a running ssh session, it will stay alive | 22:48 |
| kantxx | jrib: /etc/init.d/ssh stop and i see the PID changing | 22:49 |
| tripelb | duffydack: I want to ask how is it safer, etc. But first, let me read up on it. I am going to partition the drive now. If I can. | 22:49 |
| tripelb | yes, it's backed up, all but two movies. | 22:49 |
| duffydack | tripelb, if you can just make some free space from the xp partition (resize it to make free partition) then you can just go easy route and tell it to use free space to auto partition.. if you arent sure about it all | 22:50 |
| Trian3 | jrib: Ok, I tried "sudo apt-get autoremove swat", but it lists far too many packages. 101, to be precise; I only installed one dependency in addition to SWAT. | 22:50 |
| tripelb | and of course the precious windows installation that keeps updating for a week or more and takes all kinds of effort to install necessary programs that are not included in the system. That's after I have to use 3 disks and install driver after driver to make the system work. Dell did not want the user to be able to redo the system but pay a tech a lot.. Grr. | 22:51 |
| jrib | Trian3: autoremove offers to remove all unused packages | 22:51 |
| kantxx | jrib: wtf.. in order to acctually keep sshd stopped i have to kill it in a loop | 22:51 |
| jrib | kantxx: that isn't my experience | 22:51 |
| kantxx | jrib: wth is going on | 22:51 |
| jrib | kantxx: did you make sure you closed any existing ssh sessions you had? | 22:51 |
| HandyGandy | I'm scnniing something. It scans Ok but the scan bar stops at the end without returning and I get a mesage "reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address". | 22:51 |
| kantxx | jrib: yes | 22:51 |
| tripelb | I'll try that. duffydack | 22:52 |
| Trian3 | jrib: All unused packages regardless of whether they're connected to the application in question? | 22:52 |
| jrib | kantxx: you know your sshd is still running? | 22:52 |
| HandyGandy | Then the scan bar stops at the end wiothout returning and the device refuses to scan untill I unplug it and replug it in. | 22:52 |
| jrib | kantxx: or at least the one on the computer you're talking to me with | 22:52 |
| tripelb | wait, if I resize the windows partition, first how can I tell how much to resize it so I dont lose anything!!!! | 22:52 |
| kantxx | jrib: if i do a while [ true ] do killall sshd done it gets connection refused.. which means no IP/DNS issue.. but doing /etc/init.d/ssh stop doesnt acctually STOP it | 22:52 |
| carael | hi | 22:53 |

| mister-walter | Do we have write support for Journaled HFS+ partitions yet? | 22:53 |
| sven_oostenbrink | When running the kubuntu live cd 10.04, my dad runs into trouble, and problem is, I cant see his screen output (Im *far* away) He sees some stuff about "PCI device listing", last thing he sees is HCPI controller 9.. then it just waits for a while, and then it starts booting the windows that is already installed on his machine. Interresting detail, this machine already has ubuntu 8.04 installed.. Any of this rings a bell with anyone? | 22:54 |

| Roasted | Partition Question - I dual boot Win/Ubuntu. I'm installing Win 7 now. I noticed Windows 7 creates a 100mb partition by default at the front of the disk, before your partition you create. Will I be able to install Win 7 (100mb partition + 150gb standard NTFS partition) as well as Ubuntu w/ 2gb swap - 25gb root - remainder of disk home? Or would that be too many partitions? | 23:17 |
| duffydack | think logical | 23:17 |
| Roasted | Ultimately the disk would be - 100mb Win - 150gb Win - 2gb Nix Swap - 25gb Nix Root - 800gb (or whatever remaining) Nix Home. | 23:17 |
| xbonesx | Roasted: i have like 5 partitions | 23:18 |
| turtle_ | what does the swap actually do? | 23:18 |
| duffydack | the first 3 can be primary, after that its extended and logical | 23:18 |
| turtle_ | sorry idle question, i could google it really | 23:18 |
| Roasted | xbonesx, yeah, but I remember there being a limitation on how many of a certain partition you can have. That's all I was worried about. | 23:18 |
| frankZ | you know what, screw ubuntu, this card worked with 30 minutes of tinkering in 10.04, if they are stupid enough to break support for 10.10 then they will continue to lose users to windows 7, even die-hard users who have been with it for years. | 23:18 |
| teage | wow, its not the only problem, i have no sound, i checked the sound preferences and there is no hardware. | 23:18 |
| Roasted | duffydack, is there any advantage/disadvantage to having extended/logical partitions over primary? Like if Root is extended, does it perform poor vs primary? | 23:18 |
| frankZ | like myself. | 23:19 |
| duffydack | Roasted, nope. | 23:19 |
| xbonesx | 1000mb win + original recovery for default OS + win OS + ext4 + plus the other one ubuntu does | 23:19 |
| Roasted | thanks duffydack | 23:19 |
| xbonesx | 100* | 23:19 |
| duffydack | Roasted, win7 + ubuntu also. | 23:19 |
| Roasted | duffydack, you got your linux partitions split like I do? | 23:19 |
| teage | how would i reinstall my sound hardware? | 23:19 |
| duffydack | Roasted, mine is winboot - wininstall - / - {extended-logical} /home - swap - maverick | 23:20 |
| turtle_ | duffydack and Roasted : you had any problems with grub2 not booting windows? | 23:20 |

| VCoolio | unsober: if you want access to the windows partition from ubuntu, give it a mountpoint; if you're scared to screw it up, then don't, but remember to add a line in /etc/fstab if you want access later after all | 23:43 |
| unsober | Do you think giving it a mount point might damage or mess up my windows installation? | 23:43 |
| unsober | and thanks VCoolio | 23:43 |
| VCoolio | unsober: no; just don't format it and it will stay the same, but the mountpoint enables you to mount and browse it | 23:44 |
| unsober | ok, great, thanks | 23:44 |
| unsober | also, where should i mount it? is there a default mounting point | 23:44 |
| VCoolio | unsober: something like /media/windows something in /media is common usage | 23:45 |
| unsober | thank you | 23:45 |

| JEEB | turtle_, IIRC the PS3 only supports high profile, up to level 41 features in H.264. So as long as those things are met, you should be able to remux to mp4 with mp4box (part of GPAC) or into a transport stream with tsmuxer. | 23:54 |
