NOMADICUSI have never bothered with anti-virus or anti-spyware software before when using Linux.  I get asked a lot about it though.  I say that I just don't worry about it.  But are there any concerns that I should have, and what is the optimum response to give someone who asks about this issue who is a non Linux user?00:27

StSapphireHow does I fix it?00:49
mgarrett@well_laid_lawn he could also just use nano. does xubuntu have gedit?00:49

JackTheRipperwow i feel like even more of a noob now XD. i got lost. you mean i have to type gksu mousepad /etc/fstab in the terminal, then add in the cd entry in fstab?00:51
HexLaTorehcah, look for the file /etc/binf/named.conf.local and add a ";" before the word controls...that must close a "section"00:51
HexLaTorbind*00:52

The DVI input is on the TV and the HDMI is on my laptop, so I'm using an HDMI to DVI cable. I'm using the proprietary nvidia drivers. In Windows, I can do a resolution of 1920x1080 on it, but in Ubuntu I can only do a resolution of 1360x768. Does anyone have an idea why?01:49

scott_inomgarrett, simply type the persons name followed by a comma you want to type to instead of using @nameofperson. it will show as a message in red for that person02:09

RoastedGnea, doesn't appear as if grsync can sync over the network tho...02:12
GneaRoasted: what do you mean?02:12
RoastedGnea, I want to set up an ubuntu box that backs up to my file server.02:12
GneaRoasted: okay? and why wouldn't grsync do that?02:13
RoastedGnea, from what I'm seeing its only giving me options to sync from 1 dir to another dir. I need to sync to a network share.02:13
shatlyOk, so my xserv config of nvidia drivers failed, so i first sudo nvidia-xconfig and that did not work so i  sudo apt-get purge nvidia and then reinstalled but it still says on startup nvidia drivers ar not found02:13

SnakDocthere anyway to add a user with a password all in one line i tried -p with no luck02:25
ikeySnakDoc: You could always cheat and use something like chpasswd (therefore allowing a chained command)02:26
terrorinkis there a way to check all dependencys for a program b4 u config it02:26
Sargun_ScreenSnakDoc: can you elaborate on what you're trying to do?02:26
bardhi all02:27
SnakDocSargun_Screen: i have a list of names to creat accounts for i wrote a bash script to read in file of username and was just wanting to make them with a default password02:27
bardcan anyone teach me how to use weplab?02:27
ikeySnakDoc: definitely check out chpasswd then02:28
Sargun_ScreenSnakDoc: can't you run a few commands per username?02:28
ikeybatch-set passwords02:28
SnakDocthere are like 20 of them and i perfer not to Sargun_Screen02:28
Sargun_ScreenSnakDoc: why can't you use the -p option02:28
cjaeI have a netbook with an atheros ar8151 ethernet and a broadcom wifi card, so cannot burn to disk either and install packages like that either02:28

tucemiuxbazhang, i sort of have a netbook, i cant use the CD02:36
ramesDormantOden: but i think fg works better with the output of "jobs", not pids, exactly02:36

hichamthanks bazhang Dr_Willis02:38
ramesDormantOden: it looks like it might be tricky to do what you're wanting to do...02:38

SubCoolbazhang, it has multiple uses, im using it for survaying. Any my stupid laptop wont use its onboard or my pciexpress wlan card.02:39
SubCoolbazhang, ya, i know the possibilities are crazy, but im not that far yet (obviously)02:40
ramesDormantOden: actually in that case if you're trying to send a signal to a running program, not a backgrounded process (backgrounded == "ctrl-z / suspended in shell")02:40
DormantOdenah, no im using & when running it02:40
ramesDormantOden: ah... well, the output of "jobs" is nice to know about anyway, but "kill -1 $( pidof PROGRANAME )" should do what you want02:42
HomerPdx75oh sweet, using android irc client to connect.02:42
DormantOdenrames: that would kill it again though?02:42
SubCoolHomerPdx75, what kinda phone u got?02:42
ramesDormantOden: kill -1 is the "hup / restart" signal02:42
DormantOdenso it would stop like it should?02:43
ramesDormantOden: sending signals (man kill) uses a pid... pidof FOO gives you the pid of program FOO02:43

Roastedhey there- can someone explain the logic to me behind extended vs primary partitions? I have 820gb left and I need 2 partitions but I have too many primary partitions, so I need to create an extended partition to make this work. What I'm confused over is the extended partition is 820gb and the next one is 820 too. wow? I wanted 20/800.02:48
SubCoolHomerPdx75, ya- what kinda phone, im looking to get a linuxUser friendly phone. Staring at the epic, - trying to stay away from iphone. As much as i want it. what do u have?02:48
gino_Can someone tell me, or point me to a website that tells me what happens on a users first login?02:48
Dr_WillisRoasted:  you can have 4 primaries Max.. one of those can be a 'extended' that holds 'logicals'02:48
Dr_WillisRoasted:  the job of the extened is to hold logicals...02:48
RoastedDr_Willis, wait.. hold that thought...02:49
Roastedahh I think I get it.02:49
Dr_WillisThe sole purpose of extendeds.. is to hold one or more logicals.02:49
RoastedI thought the extended partition ITSELF was a useable partition. I didn't realize it was just a "place holder" for the other 2 partitions I needed.02:49
RoastedDr_Willis, so overall to have root/home, I should have extended - root/home. I thought root WAS the extended partition in this case.02:50
Dr_WillisNope.02:50
BobPOWMay somebody help me please?  When they get the chance that is.02:50
Dr_Willis(P1)(P2)(P3)(P4=Extended, that holds 1+ Logicals)02:50

BobPOW...Wine files.  What do I do with this folder?02:56
Dr_WillisRoasted:   You could argue that the front of the HD is afaster the the rear. and so on. but its not really noticeable.02:56
bazhangBobPOW, #ubuntu+1 for 10.1002:56
RoastedDr_Willis, yeahh. I just never dealt with extended partitions. I just moved vista to win 7 and win 7 has those two partitions, so it forced me (if I want partitions split) to have to use extended.02:56
RoastedDr_Willis, just wanted to learn as much as I could while I was having to do it is all ;)02:56
Dr_WillisBobPOW:  you dont want to use bz's you want to get teh proper .deb files.. and personally i would run a cable to update/upgrade/install things...02:56

BobPOWOk, I'm at #ubuntu+1, it would be helpful to chat with me there.  All these chat windows are getting hard to follow03:00
ramesBobPOW: and there's another guide here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=573238 ... it should help you ask ~better~ questions03:01
ramesBobPOW: basically you have to determine all the packages that "some-program-foo" needs (apt-get --print-urls stuff)03:03
giikerI have a public gpg key in my desktop I want to use in other location (desktop) Do i just copy the public key to my desktop, or do I have to do some kind ox exporting ?03:03
IdleOnenothing like a good dose of non useful advice03:03
ramesBobPOW: then get them (the wget stuff) probably onto your usb stick  and then run the "dpkg-scanpackages ... Packages.gz" thing03:04
cjaehow can I install build-essential without internet connection? ubuntu 10.0403:04
macocjae: is on the cd03:04
cjaemaco: ok under?03:04
ramesBobPOW: finally, you teach the computer that doesn't have the internet connection that those packages are available on your USB stick (sources.list ... deb file:/.... stuff)03:05
macocjae: just add the cd as a repository in software sources then apt-get as usual03:05
IdleOnecjae: pop in the live cd (don't reboot) and then sudo apt-get install build-essential03:05
cjaemaco: I have an usb stick with an iso made with pendrive linux for a netwbook03:05
IdleOneyeah, you have to add it as a repos like maco said03:05
ramesBobPOW: and finally-finally you can install them - apt-get update && apt-get install some-program-foo ... lots of steps but you can follow the instructions on the guides03:06
cjaemaco: no cd drive03:06
macocjae: bleh. um in that case mount the stick and run "find . -name *.deb"03:06

pepeedsajoel, try something like: $ dig @<some DNS server> somedomain.com03:45
pepeethat will check for somedomain.com in "<some DNS server>"03:46
pepeeeg: dig @8.8.8.8 google.com03:46
dsajoelpepee, your command yeilded with (1 server found) google.com. 300 IN A 72.14.204.99 etc.03:49
dsajoeli had tried dig@8.8.8.8 google.com03:49
pepeedsajoel, well, try putting this servers in /etc/resolv.conf : 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4  (google DNS servers)03:50
dsajoelkevdog, i'm trying static for now .. i tried everything i knew from network settings front, finally thought I'd irc .. this is def beyond my understanding ..03:50
mgmuscariif anyone knows much about libpcap, please PM me03:50
dsajoelpepee, line1 should be nameserver 8.8.8.8 and line2 8.8.4.4 .. correct?03:51
pepeedsajoel, yes03:51
pepeedsajoel, you need to restart the networking: # /etc/init.d/networking restart03:51
dsajoelpepee, no go .. still that darn unknown host google.com message03:52
mgmuscarior, if anyone wants to venture a guess as to why packets that i'm serializing over a TCP stream and then injecting back into a virtual nic on the receiving end are being padded with zeros, like so: http://pastie.org/1173640 , please let me know what your thoughts are :)03:52
pepeedsajoel, sorry, is: line1: nameserver 8.8.8.8  and line2: nameserver 8.8.4.403:52

AbhiJitwasnik, how much old is your computer? not when you bought it - when the company released it?05:47

AbhiJitwasnik, i am sharing my exp with you - this may BREAK YOUR SYSTEM COMPLETLY - but just read - due to some reason i lost drivers for my sound cards. previously there was soudn in my ubuntu. but after that 'some' reason it vanished. and insatlling all alsa related things etc all of them not working. so what i did is installed the prevsious version of kernel. then during the insatllation, taht kernel installed the necessary drivers for my sound card a05:55
AbhiJitnd whn i come to my current kernel i have sound! you can do the same. only remember that only use synpactic for any kernel related things. and still TIHS MAY BREAK YOUR SYTSEM05:55
AbhiJit:o05:55
Trian3Can anyone help w/ a minor samba issue?  The #samba room wasn't helpful.  I'm trying to figure out why testparm is giving me different results than what my cmb.conf shows.05:56

AbhiJitwhenever i ask question in xchat no one answers! and as i close xchat and come out someone comes searching for me and give me the answer! :(05:59
AbhiJitwasnik, you need to check each distro's supporting sound cards list in their release notes or supporting hardware list06:00
AbhiJitwasnik, 1st go check with fedora06:01
wasnikabhijit i downloaded fedora, but it had its own issues, where the disto was not gettin installed, was givin some weird error06:02

[V]ortexhello; after installing ubuntu on another partition, i can't see that drive if i'm using windows xp; can anyone help? thanks06:27
sprung[V]ortex, There is nothing wrong. Windows XP can't see ext3 file volumes. there are third-party programs for windows that you can use, but you would need to google to find them.06:29
[V]ortexi see.. is there a way to format ext3 from winxp?06:30
[V]ortexor do i have to do it from within ubuntu?06:30
sprung[V]ortex, yes, using various programs like Partition Magic or just use the gparted boot disk06:30
sprungif you use gparted you are doing it from a cd06:30
sprungit doesn't take very long just to format, minutes for even large volumes06:31
sprung[V]ortex, you are aware that from ubuntu, you can see your windows xp volume right?06:32
[V]ortexthanks sprung, is there any other way other than partition magic or gparted? like can i go and format from within ubuntu?06:32
[V]ortexi'm assuming both gparted and partition magic are propietary software?06:32
sprung[V]ortex, i don't know why you would want to06:32
sedulous[V]ortex: gparted is free06:33
sprung[V]ortex, gparted is free and open source and runs on a linux build on the cd06:33
sprung[V]ortex, i'll save you the decision making process, just use gparted.06:33
[V]ortexok, actually i want to uninstall ubuntu and revert the partition back to ntfs, so i can install win7 over it06:34
[V]ortexso i should use gparted?06:34
sprung[V]ortex, that's what i said06:35
chibithi. I cant get my sound to work at all yet ubuntu detects my soundcard.06:35

ubottuavinashhm: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal or type in it: man intro06:39
phperoavinashhm, try grep word `cat list.txt`06:40
sprung[V]ortex, really it's easier than falling off a log with gparted, just read the instructions, the menu will guide you06:40
phperoavinashhm, with backticks06:41
sprung[V]ortex, if you have any problems with windows xp booting look at #13 on the same link i gave you a moment ago06:41
ActionParsnipphpero: you don't have to cat the file dude. grep word file will work06:41
[V]ortexokk thanks sprung06:41
sprung[V]ortex, i am assuming you are wanting to expand out your windows volume too, gparted lets you do that as well06:42

[V]ortexhey sprung, i realised you can format hdd from ext3 to ntfs within winxp06:51
[V]ortexjust go to admin tools in control panel and computer management; den click disk mgmt on left06:51
sprung[V]ortex, you didn't say that you wanted it to be NTFS06:51
sprung[V]ortex, you simply said you wanted to format it06:51
phperoActionParsnip, don't forget that [V]ortex should restore XP's MBR to remove GRUB before deleting Ubuntu's partitions and resizing the NTFS one06:51
icarus-c[V]ortex, so you just want to overwrite the ext3 file system to ntfs ?06:52
[V]ortexoops ok yup ntfs06:52
ActionParsnip[V]ortex: you can also right click My computer -> manage06:52
sprung[V]ortex, thats what you get for not giving enough information06:52

[V]ortexphpero, what do you mean by restoring xp's mbr to remove grub?06:53
ActionParsnippoormanwhis: if you run: sudo lshw -C network | grep -i product ,what is the product line for the wireless?06:53
phperoif you don't remove grub it will keep on annoying you at startup, [V]ortex06:54

ActionParsnippoormanwhis: the lshw will show the chip, automatically using ndiswrapper is a bad call dude. There may be a native driver06:55
[V]ortexok thanks phpero, but will grub still remain even though i wipe the drive compeletely?06:55
ActionParsniplotus-blade: firewall settings maybe?06:55

ActionParsniplotus-blade: try setting it to port 2202 on the server or something like that. See if it plays nicer. If you can ping then the logical path is there07:02
ActionParsnipsweetpi: both directions ping fine07:03
sweetpiActionParsnip: he said both directions time out07:03
ActionParsnipAhhhh misread07:03
ActionParsniplotus-blade: if you ping via ip is it nicer?07:03

DizzoHi all, I am quite new to Ubuntu and I am having some trouble getting my Wireless USB adapter to work on Ubuntu because the build instructions on the CD are really confusing me. Help? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2268229/README_STA_usb.txt07:25
ActionParsnipsprung: weird, nm-applet is also default in ubuntu. When you boot do you see a little icon showing network connections etc?07:25
sprungActionParsnip, here we go: when i ctrl+c'd it it says ** (nm-applet:2687): WARNING **: <WARN>  constructor(): Couldn't initialize the D-Bus manager.07:25
ActionParsnipDizzo: what wireless chip is it?07:25

sprungActionParsnip, i do not, no.07:25

SubCoolDulak, what? y?07:26
SubCooli used this, /media/iso/ -t udf -o loop07:27
sc_another try for my problem?07:27
DulakSubCool:  because an img file is not an iso and can't be mounted directly, especially if it's a mac img with compression07:28

Dulakthat howto has all the info you need and it's free07:33
wac_advanced bash scripting thanks man07:33
sprungwac_, yeah and like i said, where bash scripting ends, perl begins. learn scripting first, then move on to perl07:33
infidis there a way to stop disable gnome-terminals keyboard shortcuts? they interfere with my other shortcuts07:33
wac_I got a few sites pulled up now. I appreciate it. I see alot of jobs for pearl scripting. something I would not mind getting into07:33
Dulakpython is a better place to start than perl, it's much simpler and easier to master for a noob, imo07:34
sprungwac_, perl not pearl, pearl is a thing in an oyster perl is a language07:34
shcherbakinfig: you mean Alt-Ctrl-t ?07:34

AbhiJitno07:58
icarus-cShredMaster, you could change your useragent so that website think you are on a mobile so they give you mobile mode i suppose07:58
KrishnanduShredMaster, better configure opera / ff as per your needs, like turn off images..!!07:59
sweetpiMasterofPuppets: Ive had that problem with a faulty antenna or maybe it was a driver problem. I had to use a static ip and try 3-4 times before it would stop acting like that07:59

AbhiJitiForgot - by apple?? :o08:00
KrishnanduShredMaster, Ohh ok...But there is no reason to use opera mini on pc. Rather configure to turn off images and other options like that to consume bandwidth. Or you can visit the mobile site with normal browser too.08:00

gino_Can someone tell me, or point me to a website that tells me what happens on a users first login? In relation to this: http://serverfault.com/questions/183054/users-not-added-untill-the-logon-first-ubuntu08:18
MasterofPuppetsguest1048939 Linux has no registry and ext filesystem doens't really fragment08:18
guest1048939ok, thanks everyone for all of the fast answes :D08:18
guest1048939thx thx, linux is really cool08:18
MasterofPuppetsChalk it up to FAT32 for being a bad filesystem08:18

MasterofPuppetsquietone: do you know what bluetooth manager you have on ubuntu? bluez-gnome etc.08:19
Krishnanduguest1048939, :)08:19
guest1048939i joined linux because i heard it doesnt have viruses :)08:19
guest1048939i found it on a website08:19
icarus-cguest1048939, i would say not that linux is particularly cool, but just Windows sucks so hard08:19
guest1048939oh, one last question08:19
Krishnanduofcrs..!!08:19
guest1048939it was hard for me to find a linux release because there are so many, but i think i found ubuntu08:20
guest1048939which seems to be the latest one.. is that right?08:20
icarus-cguest1048939, define latest?08:20
quietoneMasterofPuppets, bluez  on lucid08:20
guest1048939like the best one08:20
MasterofPuppetsguest1048939: Ubuntu is just one distribution of linux, a distribution isn't quite a version as it is a separate system08:20
guest1048939like windows 7 is later than windows 9808:20
DizzoDoes anyone know where I can find this driver: DPO_RT3070_LinuxSTA_V2.3.0.4_2010060408:20
Krishnanduguest1048939, There are many distro's...all distro's have their latest version..!!08:20
Dizzoor an equivalent?08:20
icarus-clatest ubuntu release is  10.0408:20
icarus-cguest1048939, ^^08:21
guest1048939ok, im kinda confused :(08:21
st__MasterofPuppets, stop spreading lies about fragmentation08:21
icarus-cguest1048939, ubuntu isn't a distro that ship extremely bleeding edge software though.08:21
Krishnanduguest1048939, fedora 13 is latest for fedora, opensuse 11.3 is latest for opensuse and ubuntu 10.04 is latest for ubuntu08:21
MasterofPuppetsst__: Or truths? :P08:21
Krishnandulike this..08:21
guest1048939but the same software is in the software centre right?08:21
st__MasterofPuppets, the thing is if FS is > 60% full it does fragment, and quite bad08:22
icarus-cguest1048939, what you meant by "same software" here?08:22
MasterofPuppetsDizzo: http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=2 seems to be a lead08:22
Krishnanduguest1048939, Don't think like windows. Windows and Linux is a OS. But Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSUSE are different distributions of Linux. Is that clear now..??08:22
MasterofPuppetsDizzo: Or the closest I can see08:22
guest1048939kinda08:23
st__guest1048939, it's the same software but it compiled and packaged differently08:23
Krishnanduguest1048939, All distro maintains their own repository of software. So it's ofcrs not the same one..!!08:23
guest1048939thank you krishnandu, icarus, master of puppets!08:23
Viking667... mostly the same, though occasionally distros will "patch" to suit it a little more.08:23
DizzoMasterofPu: Yeah I was there and I can't figure out which is the equivalent08:23
Dizzo:(08:23
Krishnanduguest1048939, welcum )08:23
Krishnandu:)08:23
Viking667(to suit the distro setup)08:23
DizzoThought someone here might know08:23
MasterofPuppetsquietone: You could try a different bluetooth manager and see if that helps08:24
MasterofPuppetsDizzo: The double-edged sword that is the technology market, my friend. A million different drivers to do the same thing = hell for tech support08:24

Viking667depends08:26
Viking667cjae: dmesg would likely tell you.08:26
quietoneMasterofPuppets, at this stage I will try anything. what are the other ones I can try?08:26
Viking667i.e. pull the drive out, plug it in, dmesg will end up with messages as the pendrive disconnects and reconnects08:26
Viking667make sure the filesystem on the pendrive's unmounted first though08:27

bubuzzzall the kde app will appear in a different language08:37
bubuzzzhow can i solve this problem ?08:37
coz_bubuzzz,  do you just want to change the theme for kde applicaions?08:39
bubuzzzyes08:39
coz_bubuzzz,  ok   sudo apt-get install systemsettings08:39
coz_bubuzzz,  then run  systemsettings without suod08:40
coz_sudo08:40
coz_bubuzzz,  there you can change kde application themes from kde to gtk208:40
bubuzzzeven the open office after installation also like that when i install openoffice-gtk08:40
coz_bubuzzz,  you can  also match exactly the gtk2 theme colors there08:40
Eryn_1983_FLhey peeps there are  some small partitions on my netbook what could they be?08:40
MasterofPuppetsEryn_1983_FL Recovery partitions08:41
MasterofPuppets[thor] Possibly, and possibly :P08:41
Eryn_1983_FLone is like 7 gb and  the other 49 mb08:41
coz_bubuzzz,  if you want precise color matching you may also want to install  agave  then click the color patch and use the eyedropper to sample the colors on the gtk2 theme08:41
Eryn_1983_FLi am so  blowing them away i can recreate them later..08:41
MasterofPuppetsEryn_1983_FL They're likely recovery, but remember, if your hard drive explodes or gains sentience we're not legally accountable08:42

Eryn_1983_FLi now08:42
Eryn_1983_FLi know08:42
sweetpiEryn_1983_FL: 7gb is maybe recovery partition and 49mb is diagnostics partition. you likely wont be able to recreate them08:42
apersonin your crontab, can you specify @reboot @daily on the same line?08:42
Eryn_1983_FLthen how am i suppose to dualboot?08:42
bubuzzzis it the problem of the color ?08:42

sweetpiEryn_1983_FL: not sure about your layout, but you could verify what is your diagnostics partition and either back it up and delete it or just delete it if your not worried. then you should be able to resize one of your ntfs partitions and add a new partition08:51
bubuzzzi never had this problem when still on gnome08:51

philsturgeonMY TURN :)11:03
st__andreiutz, shrink win7 partition11:03

Simon_if that switch doesnt work11:03
philsturgeonnobody ever seen the error i've posted twice for NVIDIA X Drivers? it'll bet its pretty common11:03
popeySimon_: click network manager and unselect wireless network11:03
llutzfurryotter: iptables -P INPUT DROP        sets defualt policy to drop. define11:04
andreiutzpopey, yes the installer sees the partition when I manually created the linux partitions11:04

obiobihi people, i've been messing the top panel icons. one of them was the layout switcher. (keyboard indicator). i managed to restore it, but now instead of showing the layout (before it showed ESP for spanish, RUS for russian, etc), now i have just a 'weelchair man' icon. i'd like to enable the layout initialisms i had before. i couldn't find anything simmilar in the 'add to panel' or in keyboard preferences settings.11:06

obiobist__: oh you mean by rebooting i will have it back?11:08
st__obiobi, open keyboard properties and check the 'show indicator' box11:08

koltrollGuys. On a server. Is it a good idea to keep packages up to date? I'm using webmin and I can see that there are 32 packages, a bunch of apache2 packages, that wants to be updated.11:18
AlbertNe...WHY Linux have to be SLOW on BOOT...11:18
AlbertNei need something like XP HIBERNATE11:19
koltrollThe good thing is that keeping a system up to date is that it might stay secure, but the bad thing is that it might (?) break. As I see it.11:19

madjoeis there an app that could help me with "transferring" my applications from Karmic to 10.10?11:24
madjoeon a different PC...11:24
koltrollst__, but yea, that makes sense. and wouldn't be too much work considering I'm using a vps. I'd just clone it, install updates, check if everything is fine, delete the clone, and make the update on the production server.11:25
jribmadjoe: "my applications"?11:26
madjoejrib: all the applications I've installed on my Karmic11:26
maedoxmadjoe, you could move your home folder for the settings, though you might want settings in /opt and /etc too. possibly other places. look into debfoster for creating a list of packages you have installed.11:26

I'm looking through my own docs on how I do it on our servers.  Server: apt-get install nfs-kernel-server portmap nfs-common    Client: apt-get install nfs-common portmap   Then you need to add shares (exports in nfs) in /etc/exports on the server and mount them on the client.11:56

vinokguys any of you experience problem using wine + word 2007? mine only prints the first page =(12:06

LonelyDragon757 quicky question...  fairly novice with linux/ubuntu.   my question... how do you do a direct connection to a serial port...  like if I wanted to send direct AT commands to a modem or connect a console cable to a switch or whatever...  can you do that directly from the shell?12:11
st__why would samba reject my password when I'm, trying to connect to share??12:11
llutzLonelyDragon757: echo foo >/dev/ttyS0(...x)12:11
koltrollWhat software do you need to have installed in order to use php's mail()-function ?12:11
maedoxst__, because the password or user is wrong, you didn't use smbpasswd, setup is wrong maybe more...12:12
koltrollI'm not sure I have something installed, but I don't know what to look for :)12:12
acyoo12:12
st__what does smbpasswd do?12:12
greywolf210Thanks maedox it looks like thats going to work.12:12
maedoxgreywolf210, great :)12:12
achow do i download linx backtrack?12:12
tensorpuddingst__: it creates smb users12:13
st__and how setup may be wrong? I cannot see any control panel to customize it12:13
tensorpuddingst__: if you have user level security I think you need it12:13
llutz!backtrack  >ac go to backtrack.org12:13
ubottuac, please see my private message12:13
maedoxst__, it all depends on the setup of samba. I'm not an expert, but smbpasswd is used to create users/passwords for samba shares.12:13
copernicok my grub died, and now I have the problem that I don't have a livecd that supports ext412:13
vinokst__, samba password is different with the box password. moreover the username should exist to the box your connecting to.12:13
tensorpuddingst__: Samba is configured using /etc/samba/smb.conf i believe12:13
coperniccan you write a new livecd using an old livecd ? :)12:13
st__i don't have shares, they are on windows machine12:13
st__and I don't have any idea what should I put into config and why12:14
LonelyDragon757thanks llutz.. let me try that12:14
tensorpuddingst__: is a password set on the shares?12:14
maedoxst__, haha, it's all in the details man ;) you should have said that to begin with. you are on #ubuntu not #windows :P12:14
tensorpuddingst__: you don't need to configure the samba server if you just want to view shares on another machine12:14
tensorpuddingst__: if it asks for a password, you might just try a blank one if you didn't set any restrictions12:15
st__tensorpudding, no, it's standard NT share, not a 9x one with password12:15
st__maedox, the network was working perfectly fine until #ubuntu came along12:16
Destonedanyone here know how i can run womclient on the ubuntu?12:16
st__and it is working now btw12:16
tensorpuddingmaybe it was a blip of some kind then12:16
LonelyDragon757llutz.  ok. maybe I may need to rephrase.  can I open up a direct connect to get response back too?  cause i dont know if it sent anything   I am use to hypertermal from my windows days...12:16
maedoxst__, it's a layer 8 issue. :D    ok, good. It's just Ubuntu works with samba slightly differently than you are used to.12:16

rockhoppersipior, here again  Hi, I have a wireless HSIA usb modem and a wifi connection. If i forward a localport through ssh using the internet connection from the usb modem, can the other computer connected to the wifi router access internet from my computer's port?13:05

davirrirriHello HaPK_PerCar, yes, is with my msn account. I have read this notice in some blogs, but do you know when can resolve this problem?15:32
BluesKajspaceghost_, update with apt or aptitude in the terminal15:32
HaPK_PerCardavirrirri, only when the people from widows live decides to open the service to other clients...15:32

SingAlongBluesKaj: right-click properties doesnt have the sharing option (i did a ctrl+A and rightclick)15:56
BluesKajSingAlong, consider yourself lucky , I can't access anything in linux from W715:56
dsajoelin ubuntu i am getting "unknown host" when i try to ping a hostname, any ideas how to fix?15:56
bullgard4CarlFK: Right-clicking does not produce the menu item »Hibernate«.15:57
SingAlongBluesKaj: ah? thats strange.15:57
CarlFKbullgard4: right click on the menu item15:58
CarlFKoh.. wait...15:58
SingAlongBluesKaj: ubuntu is my primary operating system. i use windows mostly for a couple games i play every year.15:58
* AbhiJit too uses wingdows for games!15:58
maedoxSingAlong, sudo apt-get install nautilus-share15:58
SingAlongis this sharing problem(or requirement?) a new one?15:59
maedox!info nautilus-share15:59
ubottunautilus-share (source: nautilus-share): Nautilus extension to share folder using Samba. In component main, is optional. Version 0.7.2-12build1 (lucid), package size 28 kB, installed size 312 kB15:59
SingAlongmaedox: says that it's already installed15:59
maedoxSingAlong, alright15:59
Agent001how to disable "enter root password" when about to install software?15:59
SingAlongmaedox: I'm not sharing files between systems. i'm using a dual boot system and I cant access some files i saved in my ntfs partition when i boot into windows15:59
maedoxSingAlong, did it ever work (to share a folder) or did you just install it?15:59
BluesKajSingAlong, I mean networked windows shares , not ntfs partition windows shares16:00
maedoxSingAlong, oh, ok, that's completely different.16:00
trijntjeAgent001, thats a bad idea16:00
Agent001why?16:00
andreiutzHi ! How can I install the driver for my 3g internal modem on ubuntu netbook 10.04 ? I have just installed ubuntu and I can't see the internal modem in network manager. Netbook model: HP mini 210 3g. What can I do ?16:00
SingAlongBluesKaj: oh! my problem is on the dual boot system.16:00
BluesKajSingAlong, no share tab on folder properties?16:00
koltrollI just lost everything that has to with network :) ifconfig gives me nothing. ifconfig -a gives me two interfaces, but the last (the one that's important, that gives me internetaccess) is gone. All after a reboot :(16:01
SingAlongBluesKaj: nope!16:01
styleIs there way to launch x11vnc over ssh?16:01
SingAlongBluesKaj: did you try shares-admin in the console?16:02
trijntjeAgent001, only root can install software system wide, so you need the password to be able to do that16:02
SingAlongBluesKaj: its the old shares admin thing thats been removed. just a suggestion since your problem is between networked comps16:02
Vaevictuswhat's the procedure for installing a more up-to-date version of a package than is in stable?16:02
mbroekerstyle, you can start vnc4server via ssh and connect to ports 5801(java) and 5901(vnc)16:03
bullgard4trism: 'man upower': "upower - UPower command line tool." Do you mean this?16:03
st__Vaevictus, safest is backports16:03
jmalickiVaevictus: it's often best to rebuild from source16:03
st__Vaevictus, also try sid16:03
mohan1maedox I used your command to open a port. But the File server says it's already used by another software. Also, the python command you gave says the same for port 8016:03
jmalickiVaevictus: get the source deb from sid and rebuild it16:03
aetarickoltroll: did you try bringing that interface up? ifup interface16:03
SingAlongi'm just wondering what would happen if i access some windows system dir and boot into windows (and they go missing as they do now) :P16:03
lorenzocabriniI have Ubuntu -gdm -pulseaudio +openbox, and I cannot get sound to work in X. It works fine in a normal login session, but not in X (launched with startx).16:04
mgjI have 2 ubuntu machines connected to eachother with a crossed ethernet cable. One has the ip 192.168.1.2, the other 192.168.1.200. They share the same submask. Why am i unable to ping between them?16:04
Agent001@trijntje no joke? there has been no complaints about this?16:04
Vaevictusjmalicki: looks old as dirt in sid too16:04
Agent001Its pretty inconvenient  to enter a 20 length password every time16:05
jmalickiVaevictus: so get the source code, and make your own deb16:05
BluesKajSingAlong, I have no probs accessing windows shares from linux , from windows to linux access I use ssh for windows , a cli utility that works quite well16:05
andreiutzHi ! How can I install the driver for my 3g internal modem on ubuntu netbook 10.04 ? I have just installed ubuntu and I can't see the internal modem in network manager. Netbook model: HP mini 210 3g. What can I do to install it ?16:05
jmalickiVaevictus: using the existing one as a template. then submit it to sid.16:05
trijntjeAgent001, No, why should it? I dont install software every day, and it makes the system a lot safer16:05
AbhiJitVaevictus, yo can add ppa16:05
trismbullgard4: well, upowerd, but yes that is related, but that is not what indicator applet uses. upowerd exposes functions though dbus that other applications can call, and that is what indicator applet session uses (I believe, from a quick glance at the code previously)...if you installed d-feet, you could navigate on the system bus to org.freedesktop.upower and see all the functions it exposes (hibernate, canhibernate, suspend, cans16:05
SingAlongBluesKaj: i think i found the solution. the dirs that were accessible via windows had their file access property as "---". so i've set the same thing to all the files now. let me check if they are accessible via win716:06
stylembroeker: that starts new X session :|16:06
Vaevictusjmalicki: i may. :|16:06
VaevictusAbhiJit: add ppa?16:06

mbroekerstyle, i am using gnome as my primary desktop env, but for vnc, i am using xfce4. works fine under the same user account without problems16:07
Agent001So root password prevents malicious softwares from installing itself?16:07

mbroekerstyle, but keep in mind that this vnc stuff is very insecure, unencrypted and avoidable as possible16:07
andreiutzHi ! How can I see if ubuntu netbook detects my internal 3g modem ?16:08
stylembroeker: yes, but this will be only in local network16:08
trijntjeAgent001, without password any program or a browser plugin could change your system without you noticing16:08

turtle__Agent001: this is why you have to use 'sudo' for some commands, because it gives you temporary root permissions, the root user is locked by default when you install Ubuntu16:10
mbroekerstyle, but do not try to start firefox: it's the only app i am aware of which does not work over ssh -X. all others do16:10

andreiutzHi ! How can I see if ubuntu netbook detects my internal 3g modem ?16:19
rautamiekkaandreiutz: One way is to do "lspci" in Terminal.16:20
rautamiekkaThough not 100%16:20

ljsoftnethow do i auto uncheck IEC958 in Gnome alsa Mixer?16:20
dsajoelmovedir: find xorg.conf, and update resolution in it16:20
styleso I could enable x11vnc after that16:20

styleremotely16:21
andreiutzrautamiekka, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/r7vBmv6916:22

rautamiekkaandreiutz: Does the laptop have WLAN ?16:23
andreiutzrautamiekka, yes it has WLAN16:23
agentgasmaskstyle: the default server on ubuntu is called vinagre16:24

MACscrsry, i got pulled away and i dont think anyone had a solution, but how do i kill a defunct process that wont die with kill -9 PID, etc16:32
serapophisstyle, i guess you could also use remote login using xdmcp (but xdmcp is not secure so you should tunnel that using ssh)16:32
SlartMACscr: don't think you can.. if a "sudo kill -9 <pid>" doesn't do it it probably just wont die.. but it won't use any cpu cycles or memory either16:33
BluesKajMACscr, did you try to kill it systen monitor ?16:33
MACscrSlart: but i cant use apt-get until its fixed16:33
serapophisstyle, or you could use nx from nomachine its a terminalserver solution16:33
andreiutzrautamiekka, it is Ubuntu Netbook 10.0416:33
SlartMACscr: then I see a reboot in your immediate future =)16:33

Vaevictusjmalicki: how do i use an existing deb as a template?16:37
jmalickiVaevictus: copy the debian directory, and fix it.16:37
rautamiekkaandreiutz: You can do it graphically or by commands. Graphically done you goto System | Administration | Software sources, and look at the ticked options.16:37
SlartMACscr: /var/lib/dpkg/lock seems like a likely candidate.. but I'm just really guessing.. I've never really played with this before16:37

jmalickiVaevictus: i have done plenty for non-deb distros too. it is not more work.16:39
jmalickiif you think it's more, you're misunderstanding debian, or you're misunderstanding the other16:39

Vaevictusjmalicki: well, i can /try/ a simple version bump easily enough, is all i'm saying16:41
andreiutzrautamiekka, all the options are checked on software sources, so I guess the restricted repos are enabled and yes earlier I did a apt-get update16:41

Vaevictusbullgard4: any suggestions other than dmesg?17:01
djzna substituted package is FULLY substitutes the old package... not leaving any traces in /usr   ?17:01
rautamiekkadjzn: Mostly it's an old binary or ignored config file, but there's higher chance of the system letting you down since the updates aren't perfect so far.17:02
bullgard4Vaevictus: No, unfortunately not. Sorry.17:02
AbhiJitBlueEagle, limonata i set transmission limit to 30kbps but its still download at 3 KB/s17:02
Vaevictusbullgard4: "check dmesg" was more response i got in here than last time i came in here about that issue.  So thanks. :D17:03
limonataAbhiJit: setting a limit does not increase your download speed17:03
Vaevictusbullgard4: i'm thinking my only option is to replace the entire kernel and all drivers and hope for the best17:03
IdleOneAbhiJit: the limit is the maximum speed allowed17:03
BluesKajChr|s, uncomment lines 34 & 35 (delete the #) , and it appears the medibuntu repos aren't listed17:04
AbhiJitlimonata, IdleOne yah thats what i want. how to allocate more to transmission and less to xchat?17:04
BluesKajChr|s, then sudo aptitude update17:04
bullgard4Vaevictus: A better approach is to change half the drivers. (Divide-by-half method)17:04
scott_ino2AbhiJit, doesn't work that way that's something different usually handled by your router using QOS (quality of service)17:05
AbhiJitscott_ino2, yah but how to do it?17:05

IdleOneAbhiJit: if your connection only allows 3KB/s that is all you will get, also depends on how many seeders and at what speed they are seeding.17:05

SerjaWhat would be the best channel for 3D rendering issues with a Radeon card?17:06
turtle__AbhiJit, pause transmission, go to speedtest,net check what speed you get, if its as much as you should be getting (40kb/s) then its probably the fact the torrent your downloadnig doesn't have many uploadsers17:06
scott_ino2Serja, depends on which driver you're using17:07
AbhiJitdjzn, ask in #Ubuntu+1 for meerkat support17:07

SerjaThis one: https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/radeon17:07
scott_ino2Serja, well are you using the open source driver or proprietary driver17:07
BluesKajChr|s, I would change the source repository in the package manager to the " main" , your school might be blocking the medibuntu url , then apt update again ,then run the medibuntu command again , and update one more time17:07
SerjaATI won't give me the priopriatary driver for this version of the OS. I have to use 8.10 or older. >.<17:08

exussumerUSUL: Does that work even with noapic kernel flag ? It wont boot without that flag so i was wondering what data was being sent though it17:13
atxqI know that if I make the file executable than you get a dialogue box with the option17:14
erUSULexussum: if you specify noapic the interrupts would use legacy methods of delivery i guess17:14
permalacHi, I would like to know what would you do in the following situation: I will have 10Tb on HD to give service to a bunch of uncontroled PhD (aka investigators). This HD will not have backup out of the box. So what I would like to know is what would you do?  Thanks17:14

zylogz80sacarlson, it *may* create its own database of art to song mappings but it doesn't embed them so other applications don't have access to that same album art17:50
SerjaYou could do that, but what I would recommend is moving all your files to the second partition to back them up, then wipe and install to the new drive, backing up any settings you want to keep, obviously. You could also use Grub to help with the transition, of course17:50

zylogz80http://www.webupd8.org/2010/09/adobe-flash-player-square-102-64bit.html18:11
sacarlsonSquarism: stoping for me is a slow server on the other side18:11
Dr_WillisI tend to use tools that download the flash videos.. that i then watch ...18:11
sacarlsonSquarism: I also make the buffer biger seems to help that18:12
sebubaboa tarde18:12
noisewaterphdDr_Willis: a 64 bit linux version of a "developer preview" of 10.2 was released. that is hardly the same as having an actual 64 bit version18:13
AbhiJit10.2???? :o18:14
Dr_Willisnoisewaterphd:  i dont really worry about it much. I use whats in the repos and it works.18:14
noisewaterphdAbhijit: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html18:14
AbhiJitohhh talking about adobe. ok18:15
noisewaterphdDr_Willis: and there is no 64 bit Flash in the repos, which is what I said the parent may have been referring to in the first place18:15
m_fulderwhat's the best file system for ubuntu ? ext2, ext3 or ext4?18:17
molenickext618:17
molenick!!!18:17
m_fulder6 :O18:17
Vaevictusm_fulder: xfs or reiser18:17
m_fulderI only have 4 on my comp18:17
Vaevictus^_^18:17
molenickext6 doesn't exist18:17
IdleOnem_fulder: Ubuntu now uses ext4 as default18:17
m_fulderlol :P18:17
m_fulderaha oki18:18
m_fulderwill make it 4 then18:18
neil_dpermalac: being able to rate limit the copy is handy... the cp was flooding my wi-fi and stopping other things working properly.18:18
sacarlsonm_fulder: if you have multiboot system and want to mount the drives on all of them just make sure they can mount the ext4 system18:19
cyphasewhat's a program that will take several high quality photos and print them all on one page, easily?18:19
turtle__if i was gonna set up scheduled tasks on ubuntu, are there any things that need doing on a regular (lets say weekly) basis to ensure the system keeps running smoothly?18:19
Dr_Willisturtle__:  most of those are allready setup.18:20
turtle__i know you dont really have to worry about defragmentation or anything18:20
zylogz80turtle__, yeah you're good. just update when they are available.18:20
m_fuldersacarlson, you mean that the OSes can mount ext4?18:20
neil_dcyphase: make up a single image with gimp is one way?18:20
turtle__cool cool18:20
laegwhere are the gnome proxy settings saved? suddenly all my im accounts in pidgin won't connect, but do when i change the proxy setting from gnome proxy to no proxy18:20
cyphaseneil_d: i dont want to have to resize and all that18:20
cyphaseneil_d: maybe i dont have to, i dont know18:21
sacarlsonm_fulder: some older OSes can't,  like maybe some old linux or even some windows drivers mount extX systems18:21
neil_dcyphase: don't then gimp will handle some pretty large images.18:21
m_fuldersacarlson, yeah I'll have multiply OSes but all of them I'll run ubuntu on18:21
m_fulderthen it shouldn't be a problem with ext4 right?18:21
cyphaseneil_d: or have to copy and paste them all into a grid18:21
Dr_Williscyphase:  ive not really seen a 'idiot-friendly' photo printer program  like i have seen DOZENS of in windows.. fit photos to a 8x11 page  let you do X # of 4x5s and so on...18:21
sacarlsonm_fulder: well ubuntu 7.X will not mount ext418:21
Dr_Williscyphase:  Luckly for the wife her printer is smart enough to do it from  photos on her sd card. so ive not even used the apps in windows in ages.18:22
m_fuldersacarlson I'll run the newest 10.4 or what it is18:22
SerjaAny idea why power management would suddenly start not responding when I try to log into my Ubuntu account? I have to tell it to "logout anyway".18:22
sacarlsonm_fulder: then you should have no problem18:22
m_fulderbtw if I make it ext4 would I be able to reach the files throught FTP on a windows comp?18:22
Cpt_Zyphi'm looking to find out details on A how to install on a netbook with 8gig ssd as well as how much space the recent ubuntu netbook release takes up etc18:22
Dr_Willism_fulder:  the services dont care what the underlaying FS is.18:22
SerjaNo. If you need access to the files via Windows, use NTFS18:23
SerjaEXT4 has no driver support in Windows yet, unfortunately18:23
Dr_Willism_fulder:  the ftp or samba servers dont care.18:23
Dr_WillisSerja:  he sort of said via ftp. :) so i think he means over the network.18:23
sacarlsonSerja: yes but I think ext3 does18:23
m_fulderyeah not the network18:23
m_fulderI mean ftp18:23
m_fulderwon't that be possible with ext4?18:23
Dr_Willism_fulder:  Huh? FTP is using the network...18:23
SerjaEXT3 does, yeah. I can't remember if EXT3 will /write/ though.18:23
Dr_Willisso somthing is backwards here..18:23
m_fulderheh ops thought wrong xD18:24
m_fulderthought you ment local network ^^18:24
cyphaseah, found a program i used before18:24
Dr_Willisthe use of those ext2/3 file system readers in windows.. i found to be very flakey.. and has trashed my ext2/3 filesystems in the past.. i dont use them any more18:24
cyphasegnome-photo-printer18:24
m_fulderhm how do I check for my disc-file systems again?18:24
m_fulderah yeah I could do that Dr_Willis18:24
sacarlsonm_fulder: you mean two different systems?  yes ext4 will pass files to windows XP or even older systems18:24
turtle__if your using an FTP server, then as long as its running on an OS that will read ext4 it should be fine18:25
cyphaseDr_Willis, neil_d: gnome-photo-printer, in case you want to know18:25
zeppelin101is there a way to significantly speed up the process of installing many packages?18:25
neil_dcyphase: ok18:25
zeppelin101would giving the process higher priority help?18:25
m_fulderyeah I mean..I have ubuntu on my comp where the ext4 HDD is mounted and I have FTP installed on that comp...now will windows users be able to rech the files thorugh windows -> ftp client18:25
sacarlsonm_fulder: yes18:26
m_fulderokey nice ext4 it is then :)18:27
zylogz80m_fulder, you're way over thinking it. right click a folder and select "sharing options" then select "Share this folder" it will prompt you to install windows file sharing software and then you should be able to see it on the windows network18:27
neil_dm_fulder: they should be able... ftp is a protocol ... it doesn't care how the files are stored by the ftp server.18:27
m_fulderokey nice will try it on when I've installed the OS on my new HDD ^18:27
m_fuldernow another question.... when now using GParted to format/partition my new HDD I can choose between primary and extended disc what should I choose there?18:28
m_fulderIt's primary because I'll install a new OS on it ... but under this OS its extended :O18:28
SerjaIf I understand right primary means the first partition of the drive and extended are additional partitions, but I could be wrong18:29
m_fulderaha yeah it's meybe like that18:29
m_fuldera*18:29
earthmeLonYou should only have one primary partition per drive, m_fulder.  You most likely want to create ext partition and fill them with logical ones18:29
zylogz80Serja, m_fulder, you use extended partitions if you need more than 4 per disk. extended allows you to have more than 418:29
m_fulderah okey then I get it18:29
earthmeLonprimary partitions are good for thumb drives and boot partitions18:29
m_fuldermore then 4 partitions :O18:30
m_fulderbut .. if I want one for my OS and one for my data18:30
m_fuldershouldn't I then do one primary and one extended?18:30
zylogz80m_fulder, it really doesn't matter.18:30
earthmeLonYou could do it that way, absolutely18:30
zylogz80m_fulder, the OS doesn't care18:30
earthmeLon^18:30
m_fulderhaha oki :P18:30
earthmeLonJust understand that extended partitions are more of a container for logical ones18:31
m_fulderaha ok18:31
FunkyDudedoes anyone know what ownership i should set to the /var or /www directory? (owner or group owner)18:32
earthmeLondrwxr-xr-x 15 root root 4.0K 2010-09-02 04:27 var FunkyDude18:33
earthmeLonFunkyDude Then /var/www should be drwxrwxr-x with any username and a group that your httpd/apache is in18:34
abhinav_singhi have installled virtual box for installing windows in ubuntu....not the problem is windows os size is small ....even if i click on full screen mode...window size is very small....please help me18:34
earthmeLonSo, most likely, FunkyDude your /var/www/ will be owned by your user and group www-data18:34
FunkyDudewell, actually i'm using xampp this time round, but the ownership is usually root by default and root as the user group18:34
neil_dcyphase: are planing on combining these pictures a lot?18:35
FunkyDudewhat's 4.0K 2010-09-02 mean?18:35
littlepenguinhi i need some assistance in configuring my mouse (razor diamondback) i have a problem with the extra buttons..18:35
neil_dFunkyDude: its a size followed by a date.18:36
earthmeLonThat "size" and the date modified, FunkyDude.  All my dir's show up as 4.0K as well18:36
littlepenguinxorg.conf -> Section "InputDevice"   Identifier     "Mouse0"18:36
littlepenguin    Driver         "mouse"18:36
littlepenguin    Option         "Resolution" "1600"18:36

littlepenguin    Option         "Device" "/dev/psaux"18:36
FunkyDudeearthmeLon, so i should run this in terminal?  drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 4.0K 2010-09-02 04:27 var18:37
earthmeLonNo, no18:37
earthmeLonYou asked what the permissions should be.  I am not sure exactly what you're trying to do18:37
FunkyDudewhen i installed xampp, and it was the same thing for apache...18:38
FunkyDudethe /var folder (and subfolders) or in xampp's case the /opt folder (and subfolders) are owner-root and group-owner-root18:39
littlepenguinhttp://pastebin.org/1087262 why are the keys strange mapped??like the right outer 2 buttons are wheel up and down and left buttons on mouse are bind with pg up18:39
AbhiJitbye gn18:39
AbhiJitsd :)18:39
unclemantishow do i add this to my PATH? /usr/share/php/ZendFramework/bin/18:39
FunkyDudeso i chown'd them to my user name, so i could have access, but in the process i keep screwing up my database18:39
earthmeLonI don't want to suggest anything that would be insecure for your system, FunkyDude, but if you were to do " chgrp GROUPNAMEHERE -R /var/www " and put in a groupname that both YOU and the httpd share18:40
FunkyDudeok, so i should change the group to www-data18:41
trismunclemantis: add a line: export PATH=$PATH:/usr/share/php/ZendFramework/bin/ to the end of your ~/.bashrc file, then restart your terminal, or . ~/.bashrc18:41
FunkyDudenow i just have to figure out how to add root and my default user to the www-group18:41
FunkyDude*www-data group18:41
earthmeLonWell, FunkyDude, you can do " sudo vim /etc/group " and look to see what group your httpd belongs to18:42
littlepenguinhttp://pastebin.org/1087262 why are the keys strange mapped??like the right outer 2 buttons are wheel up and down and left buttons on mouse are bind with pg up18:42
earthmeLonwww-data is a pretty standard group, so you may see it's already in that group.18:42
FunkyDudeearthmeLon, when i do that, the terminal opens and closes real fast18:43
earthmeLonOkay.  Are you on the machine right now, FunkyDude?18:43
FunkyDudeyes18:44
earthmeLonYou can do " gedit /etc/group "18:44
FunkyDudenow i'm using xampp this time tho, not apache, so it installs in the /opt/lampp directory18:45
Ganesh_Rhi what is the difference between kde and gnome (new to linux)18:45
Ganesh_Rmy linux desktop is running gnome now. how can i change to kde.18:46
Slasher`Ganesh_R; they are different desktop frontends18:46
earthmeLonYou would use Kubuntu, Ganesh_R18:46
SerjaThey are just window management programs. I like KDE, personally, but both are fine18:46
Ganesh_Ris that a completely seperate install than gnome?18:46
unclemantisthat export path thing did not work :(18:46
Slasher`Ganesh_R; is it ubuntu? if so you can go to a terminal and type "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" to install kubuntu18:46
earthmeLonUbuntu uses gnome.  Kubuntu uses KDE.  There are ways to go back and forth...but....18:46
Ganesh_Ri mean would i still share files and installed programs between gnome and Kde?18:47
Slasher`yes18:47
SerjaI installed KDE on top of Gnome without issue and just selected which to use at login18:47
Ganesh_RSlasher`: yes i am working on Ubuntu 10.0418:47
FunkyDudewhen it opens gedit earthmeLon, its just a blank file18:47
earthmeLonFunkyDude, try using sudo?  Be careful not to edit/write to the file18:48
unclemantisthis is what zf is asking of me "zf create action name controller-name[=Index] view-included[=1] module" can someone give me an example of action add and controller Venue?18:48
zeugmais there an installer image available for download suitable for dd-ing to a usb drive? google does not avail me.18:48
unclemantiswrong # sorry18:48
yitz_Anyone here know how to use preseeding for the installer? I'm having trouble figuring out what to do with a preseed.cfg once I got it18:49

mestarHey people. My ubuntu is screwing up I think, it tried running a checkdisk repair for hours without loading, I can only start ubuntu using "sudo service GDM stop" and then starting x from terminal, and my themes are screwing up.18:50
mestarMy question is how do I reinstall ubuntu on this partition?18:50
Ganesh_RIf i install Kubuntu now, will I have to download all over again when 10.10 releases on october?18:50

SlartGanesh_R: if you update an earlier version it will turn into the real thing later18:51
Slart!beta | Ganesh_R18:52
ubottuGanesh_R: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Maverick Meerkat and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Maverick. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console.18:52
mestarAnyone able to help here?18:52

hcookanybody know why gmail is telling me I need to "upgrade to a modern browser" when I'm on Firefox 3.6?18:53
SlartGanesh_R: if you install 10.04 you will be able to update it to 10.10 without reinstalling18:53
SerjaIs there an app I can get to monitor system temps in Ubuntu?18:53
Ganesh_RSlart: ok cool. thanks18:53
SlartGanesh_R: you're welcome18:53
Slarthcook: might be that gmail doesn't recognize the browser as a "supported one" and then concludeds that it has to be too old18:54
Slarthcook: but wait.. 3.6.. that's the same one I'm running.. it isn't complaining when I try gmail18:54
mestarSlart, is there anyway to reinstall ubuntu from the terminal by any chance?18:54
BluesKajFunkyDude, http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fileowner.html18:54
Slartmestar: not while you're running ubuntu already.. you usually boot from a livecd/install cd18:55

Slart!anyone | sonal18:55
ubottusonal: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?18:55
mestarHmm, slart how do I find what partition this is on?18:55
Jebbyhcook: Goto About:Config in Firefox, and then in the filter box at the top, type in general.useragent to see what it is18:56
Slartmestar: cat /etc/mtab  will give you a list of mounted partitions.. you can compare the UUID for / with the list you get by running "sudo blkid" in a terminal18:56
Jebbyif firefox was upgraded maybe the useragent string stayed the same or somethin18:56
mestarNot really sure what that means slart D=18:56
BluesKajsonal, that's a question for #backtrack18:57
Slartmestar: =)   open a terminal   (Applications, accessories, terminal), then run "cat /etc/mtab"18:57
Slartmestar: cat is a command that prints out things to the screen.. the file /etc/mtab contains information on which partitions are mounted at the moment18:57
mestarcat: /ect/mtab: No such file or directory18:58
Slartmestar: /etc/mtab18:58
mestarbash: /ect/mtab: No such file or directory18:58

SerjaI'm running an Acer laptop. When I start up my computer most of the time when I log in Ubuntu tells me power management is not responding and gives me the option to wait, cancel, or logout anyway. If I wait nothing happens, but when I logout anyway it seems that my laptop is now prone to the same reboots during gaming that my Windows partition is. Any ideas?18:58

mestarwhat do I replace ect with slart?18:59
Slartmestar: if you look at the first line on my pastebin you'll see    /dev/sda1 / ext4 rw,errors=remount-ro 0 0     that means my system is located on /dev/sda119:00
mestar(sorry for being a newb to this)19:00
Slartmestar:    cat /etc/mtab19:00
Slartmestar: that's the whole command.. you can copy paste it if you want to avoid typos19:00
GauravButolahelp on the above que plz?19:00
JebbySerja: Did you check for BIOS updates from Acer, that would be my 1st step19:00
mestargot it slart19:00
mestarhttp://pastebin.com/7r4sb2KQ19:01
SerjaThe laptop is 3 years old. I've updated the Bios before, but I will double check.19:01
mestarI think its /sda719:01
Slartmestar: yup, correct.. so the sixth partition on your first hard drive19:01
mestarGreat19:01
mestarSo I install ubuntu, and replace sda7 with the new install?19:02
mestarOr gparted and get rid of sda7 then install?19:02
Slartmestar: yup.. and then you'll have to mount your home in the right place as well.. you've got that on a separate partition at the moment19:02
Slartmestar: either way will work.. the installer will let you remove the partition before creating it again19:03
mestarHow would I mount home in the right place again mate?19:03
mestar(a user from here helped me do it before, I forgot how to do it now to be truthful)19:03
Slartmestar: just add the line from your pastebin to the file /etc/fstab  on your new install19:03
keldronaI need help! I can't find the configure file for a tar.bz2. I don't know hot to install it. This is the message I get:bash: ./configure: No such file or directory19:03
mestarSorry slart?19:04
Slartmestar: /etc/fstab is a "real" file.. it lists the stuff you want to mount.. like /home , your root drive and so on..19:04
mestarAhh right19:04
mestarSo how do I add the line to the file then?19:04
hcookJebby: it's "Firefox/3.6.10"19:04
Slartmestar: /etc/mtab is a file that is autogenerated.. it tells you what is actually mounted at the moment19:04
mestarAhh ok19:04
piyushmishraHi I had ubuntu 10.04 LTS and I installed win 7 in a separate partition. how do I boot via the ubuntu now?19:05

is-mwkdford how do I now.. the eclipse file is a binary executable and the error only says: bash: ./eclipse: no such file or directory19:09

kdfordbecause eclipse file is a script that does a lot of things, and it refers to several other files.  maybe you can echo its output19:09
datacrusherjust google grub ubuntu windows19:09
PiciFunkyDude: Is there a reason you're not using the LAMP stack that is in the Ubuntu repositories?19:09
kdfordis-mw this is the 10th line of my xxx/eclipse file19:09

kdfordis-mw ... oops, forgot to paste... ECLIPSE=/usr/lib/eclipse/eclipse19:10
FunkyDudePici, i did before, but ran into a problem ( think it was a directory access problem), so I installed xampp instead, but am having the same issue19:10
datacrusher<datacrusher> piyushmishra, you wont19:10
kdfordis-mw are you specifying ./eclipse, not just eclipse?19:10

sal22Looks like audacity will do it Play other tracks while recording new one: Check this box if you want to record multiple tracks over top of one another! Record the first track as usual. Then, with this box checked, click record again. The first track you recorded will play, but Audacity will also record a new track at the same time, maybe allowing you to sing harmony with yourself or add real-time sound effects to a recording.19:50
sal22You may notice that when you play the two tracks you recorded together, they aren't synchronized. This is normal and is not the fault of Audacity. To fix it, you will need to grab the Time Shift tool and slide one of the tracks around until it sounds right.19:50

jribo-brown_: you can try using something like pdftotext or pdftohtml and then parse that (with grep for example)20:08

m_fulderwhen I check in "Disc Utility" the name is /dev/sdb1 ... then if I put that in my /etc/fstab and reboot my HDD can't find the partitions of my disc and the device-name is chang to sda1 isntead :S why is that SystemParadox20:16
jribluca: check ~/.gtkrc-2.0 , some tools save it there20:16
m_fuldermy OS can't find *20:16
lucajrib: done thanks20:16
SystemParadoxm_fulder, is this for your root partition or extra things like /home, etc?20:16
SystemParadoxthe problem is that sda and sdb may swap around depending on which order your BIOS saw them in on each boot20:17
jribluca: no problem, anyone that uses a decent window manager deserves the help :)20:17
m_fuldernot root just extra device put in /media/System and /media/Data20:17
m_fulderI'll install another OS on that HDD later on20:17
m_fulderput in = try to mount them in there20:17
SystemParadox /media is for automounted devices20:17
SystemParadoxuse /mnt if you want to define your own20:18
m_fulderfor automounted? doens't the automount read from /etc/fstab?20:18
piyushmishraakssps011: thnx its works now :)20:18
piyushmishraakssps011: lol I am a n))b20:18
SystemParadoxe.g. I have /mnt/winxp, /mnt/win7, /mnt/space, which are in /etc/fstab. Then removable devices like CDROM, USB, etc get done by the automounter in /media20:19
piyushmishraakssps011 : n00b* :)20:19
akssps011piyushmishra: no problem :)20:19
akssps011:)20:19
m_fulderSystemParadox,  but I got a external HDD which I mount to media successfully :O20:19
m_fuldershouldn't an internal one work as good?20:19
SystemParadoxm_fulder, USB, CDROM are removable devices, so they're handled differently20:20
m_fulderaha right :)20:20
m_fulderso I should put my internal one in /mnt/ instead ... but in fstab as well for automount?20:20
edbianm_fulder, I create folders inside /mnt.  for example, /mnt/hdd120:21
m_fulderyeah20:21
m_fulderand then .. how do you mount them on startup?20:21
john3can somebody give me a hand installing vmserver on 10.0420:21
SystemParadoxsorry I should clarify automount. I was meaning the hotplug thing. What you mean is mounting on boot, which yes is done from fstab20:21
john3ive read the tutorials but i am not having success20:21
fred__how can i list running windows like firefox pcmanfm in terminal? with ps -e i can get processes but i need the names of running programs20:21
SystemParadoxm_fulder, set it up in fstab, then just "mount [mountpoint]" to make sure it will work20:22
m_fulderah yeah ... but still I should mount it yo /mnt/ and not /media/ ?20:22
john3perhaps i am doing something wrong20:22
m_fulderyeah that's what I've done20:22
Jebbymananan: I only see linux support for 1D19:1101  DK DVB-T Dongle , 1D19:1102  DK mini DVB-T Dongle, and  1D19:1103  DK 5217 DVB-T Dongle. I think your outta luck20:22
SystemParadoxyeah if it's in fstab or if you're doing it manually, it belongs in /mnt really20:22
m_fulder/dev/sdb1       /media/System     auto defaults 0 020:22
m_fulderfor example20:22
edbianfred__, Every process is a program.  What you're asking for is a list of all the graphical programs.20:22
SystemParadoxm_fulder, that would still work though20:22
lucajrib: I love xmonad! :) do you too?20:22
allureHi guys. I have Ubuntu installed in Portuguese-br but I want the yes/no shortcuts to be y/n instead of s/n in 'nano'. Could anyone help me?20:22
m_fulderhm then why can I mount it manually to /media/ ?20:22
jribluca: yep!20:23
m_fulderyeah but it doesn't and I have nop idea why :S20:23
SystemParadoxthere's nothing stopping you doing that, it's just bad practice20:23
fred__yes i need a list of all graphical programs, is that possible?20:23
SystemParadoxm_fulder, take a look at the entries in /dev/disk20:23
edbianm_fulder, You physically are able to mount anything into any folder.  It's proper to use /mnt20:23
jriballure: my guess is you probably need to create a custom locale :/20:23
fred__i am coding a little program in java20:23
allurejrib: just for that? =(20:23
sweetpim_fulder: your choice of mount location has nothing to do with the problem your having, you need to mount by uuid20:23
jriballure: that's just my guess20:23
fred__and i need to handle opened windows20:23
edbianfred__, It must be possible.  system monitor does it.  I don't know how.20:23
jriballure: you could edit nano source too ...20:23
m_fulderby uuid?20:23
lucajrib: still not getting java program to work tho20:23
allurejrib: I guess I'll just create a custom locale, then... might save me some future trouble too20:24

undecimIf I have a separate /boot partition that is not mounted at boot (ironic, huh?), does that mean I will have to remember to mount it manually before each kernel update to avoid borking my system, or will I get an error before the update is done? Is there any way I can be prompted to mount the /boot partition before a kernel update?20:27
SystemParadoxm_fulder, the one without any '-partX' is the equivalent of /dev/sdx without the number, that is, it refers to the whole disk, ignoring partitions20:27
m_fulderaha okey that's what I thought20:27
PiciMestar: You can't select empty space as a mountmount, you need to create a partition there first.20:27

aboSamoordo I have to do any extra configuration after installing eclipse package in ubuntu 10.04 ?21:43
TELL0what about this line? >>> sudo aptitude install x-window-system-core gnome-desktop-environment21:43
Stefanos90Doyle,  tell me again what you said about /boot/ remember i cant log in21:43
undecimTELL0: If you want to be REALLY minimal, just install gnome-session, metacity, gnome-panel, your xserver and drivers, and whatever apps you need21:43
r007psilikon onboard gfx are disabled when you install a gfx card21:43
psilikonerUSUL, well it does, *but*, the DVI adapter is not an DVI-I style and it won't fit my vga to dvi adapter to work on my vga only lcd.21:43
CydeWeyspsilikon: Freaking Flash.21:43
TELL0oh good... thanks undecim21:43
regeyathe 32-bit flash works fairly well on 64-bit ubuntu.  if you have problems with youtube, hulu, etc. take a look at http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2010/05/03/workarounds-for-unrecognized-clicks-in-flash-player/21:44
CydeWeyspsilikon: It's a shame, because by all rights, 32-bit should be the version that isn't supported anymore.  Adobe needs to enter this decade.21:44
psilikonr007, Oh. so I would need to add a PCI card then. I'll just get a better vid card. nvidia ftw21:44
CydeWeysMy solution for Hulu problems is BitTorrent :-/21:44
r007psilikon pci will do the same21:44
savidDoes anyone know why crontabs in /etc/cron.d won't run?21:44
psilikonCydeWeys, or newsgroups21:44
r007psilikon unless its a really old motherboard where you had to change the jumpers21:45
regeyawell, the legal workaround is to fix the config for nspluginwrapper :->21:45
DoyleStefanos90: Can you get back to the command line?21:45
r007psilikon even then your system probably wouldnt boot so not much chance of them working together21:45
psilikonr007, no I am saying add PCI to work with the PCI-E so I can use both. Since you are saying that the PCI-E is cancelling out the onboard.21:45
r007psilikon yeah that may work21:46
pirintoI got an USB samsung printer (CLP 315)  set up in CUPS and shared through samba. The printer goes to sleep mode eventually and makes the samba share invalid. The solution up till now has been restarting smbd. Is there any usb-command I can run that polls the usb port instead of having to restart smbd?21:46
Stefanos90Doyle,  yes21:46
undecimStefanos90: Have you gotten anywhere with your boot problem? I saw it earlier but was helping too many other people at the time.21:46
psilikonOnce I get this dual lcd setup for girlfriend finished she is gonna be completely sold on Ubuntu. She already likes it a lot btw.21:46
=== Greysc[a]le is now known as Greyscale
DoyleStefanos90: ok, were you able to perform all parts of that instruction, fdisk -l, identify the drive and partition 100% without any trouble?21:47
=== Greyscale is now known as Greysc[a]le
r007psilikon if your going for dual monitors why not use a double ended cable no need for dual output gfx21:47
Stefanos90Doyle,  no wait i loged before with live cd to see at wich partition is my installation. Now i cant log, I can see the grub's menu21:48
psilikonr007, I have never done that. Do you have a mirror image of the other desktop or one lard desktop?21:49
r007psilikon if your going for dual monitors why not use a double ended cable no need for dual output gfx21:49
psilikonlard=large21:49
TELL0undecim, that ubuntu minimal install is compatible with ubuntu repos right?21:49
r007psilikon one big desktop split between 2 monitors21:49
psilikonr007, really? why didn't I know of this before :)21:49
undecimTELL0: 100%21:50
r007psilikon yeah we use them at work while monitoring servers21:50
psilikonr007, so on a card with two vga outs i could run 4 monitors.21:50
TELL0perfect!21:50
tripelbsearched for a file. found it. How do I find out where (in what folder) it is?? 10.04 - I used gui-explorer21:50
undecimTELL0: It's the same thing as ubuntu-desktop, but without the extra packages21:50
psilikonr007, you got a part number or link or something?21:50
r007psilikon never done it but dont see why not the display is handled by the software and not the hardware21:50
TELL0and, I will get and lighter desktop? cuz now my desktop is pretty heavy.21:51
r007psilikon no you just get a vga cable with 2 outputs21:51
Stefanos90Doyle,  I completed th tut but seen no result after ctrl+x i wasn't able to log and it had erros and again the same screen21:51
r007psilikon the rest is handled by your gfx settings21:51
undecimTELL0: That's the main benefit to the minimal install. Less bloat21:52
psilikonr007, nice thanks.21:52
DoyleStefanos90: ok, we're going to edit the entry to let you get into the command prompt21:52
r007psilikon I steal mine from work :)21:52
tripelbEasy question. I've been using ubuntu for over a year but after I search for a file (and find it)  I cant tell where it is on the hard drive. I have the window up now.21:52
undecimTELL0: It's a little more work though... Helps to know the command line when using the minimal install21:52
Stefanos90Doyle,  yes21:52
psilikonr007, i'm telling on you unless you give me one21:52
TELL0nice... I really exited about it now hehehe... thanks undecim21:53
r007psilikon lol21:53
TELL0I love command line :D21:53
DoyleStefanos90: highlight the OS and press 'e' highlight the latest kernel, press 'e' again, enter '3' at the end of the line with a space before it. press 'b' to boot21:53
undecimTELL0: If you want a REALLY light desktop, you should look at installing fluxbox.21:53
undecimTELL0: It's lots of work to setup, but ultra-customizable and ultra-lightweight21:54
TELL0I heard about it, but I like nautilus pretty much...21:54
r007tripelb whats the path?21:54
a_bughi guys, a strange question please21:54
tripelbr0007 That was my question.21:55
undecimTELL0: I've set up machines that run a good-looking desktop on 100 MB ram usage (including buffers/cache)21:55
r007tripelb how have you located it using locate?21:55
a_bugI'm seeing GET/POST requests to strange IP addresses in my webserver logs, when I am sure none of my code is making those requests21:55
undecimTELL0: Well, you can use nautilus in fluxbox.21:56
r007a_bug put an example in paste bin21:56
DoyleStefanos90: once you're into the terminal do a "cat /etc/fstab" and verify what you were entering in the grub conf matches this information21:56
TELL0and it will work as good as in gnome?21:56
undecimTELL0: In-fact, fluxbox doesn't have itself a file manager (which means no desktop icons unless you use nautilus, pcmanfm, or another file manager)21:57
r007tripelb if you do an updatedb then locate whatyourlookingfor that should then give you /foo/bar/file21:57
ubuntu-user hi, i am new to linux can i get tips on how to make ubuntu pretty... with eye candy21:57
a_bugr007: http://pastebin.ca/194684221:57
TELL0jummm good to know that. how can I install it instead of gnome? what's the command?21:57
tripelbI've guessed and found the path. But that's chance. It says it's in username but it's not in the root of username. r007 -->how have you located it using locate? -- I opened a file explorer window (heard it's called Nautilus but it doesnt say that anywhere on the desktop or in anywindows so I might be giving it the wrong name) and pressed control-F to get a locate (search) text box because I dont see any button or menu choice for search. -21:57
undecimtripelb, r007: You can use "find ./ -iname filename" to find files without locate21:58
a_bugthese weird requests only take place when I plug in my data card21:58
tripelbr00t I dont know what an updatedb is? I can guess it's a terminal command??21:58
jparnellok... umm... kind of new to linux. really new, actually. im trying to install JULinux 8 and i appear to be stuck21:58
r007undecim locate > find :)21:58
Stefanos90Doyle,  Cant understand where to insert the '3' now at my screen I can see "recordfail insmodext2 set root='(hd0,1)' and after this 3 lines th lines I edited21:59
undecimr007: Depends on the use case.21:59
r007tripelb sorry gui isnt me21:59
r007undecim true21:59
tripelbI dont know locate from find. I'd be ever so happy to read a page on how to do it. This has been a problem for a long time. Re search for a filename and know the path. undecim r00722:00
r007tripeln man locate or man find22:00
tripelbr007 I'd be happy to know how to do it in terminal.22:00
jparnellhey everyone, im really new to Linux. I'm trying to install a java package and i appear to be stuck at the T&C part...22:00
undecimtripelb:  if you want a GUI: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=3565852&postcount=322:01
tripelboh yeah, thanks a lot. I've read man on many things and it's alomst useless except to find the definition of a switch. It's way glib and dense at the same time. roo722:01
r007tripeln updatedb is a terminal command which updates the database of indexed files directories etc22:01
pirintojparnell, which java package are you installing?22:02
r007tripeln open a terminal type updatedb to update the system database this is done once a day automatically though22:02
tripelbr007 shouldnt it be up to date at all times? that's the table of where a file is, right? That's the major job of a filesystem is to keep that kind of list. I'm way confused.22:02
jparnellsun-java6-jre22:02
r007tripeln then type locate what you want to find22:02
r007tripeln it updates daily not on the fly22:02
pirintojparnell, why are you stuck?22:02
r007tripelb it updates daily not on the fly22:03
pirintojparnell, what can't you do?22:03
jparnellwell, I'm at the T&C in the terminal, and at the bottom it says <ok> but I do not know how to proceed22:03
r007tripelb have you pressed enter?22:03
a_bugI'm seeing GET/POST requests to strange IP addresses in my webserver logs, when I am sure none of my code is making those requests. http://pastebin.ca/1946842 Can someone please explain why these are happening ?22:03
r007tripelb sorry not you lol22:03
r007jparnell have you pressed enter22:03
jparnell@r007 yes, a couple times. it's unresponsive22:04
DoyleStefanos90: OK, you're looking at hte conf file. We can undo the changes you made to the file and we can start over. That method didn't work. Do the  e e 3 thing from the main grub menu which displays the list of OS's to boot22:04
r007jparnell how about q or ctrl+c22:04
pirintojparnell, if you press q22:04
pirintooh crap too slow :)22:04
tripelbr007 -- I seem to be dense. >>  hara1@hara1-desktop:~$ locate lucid.sources.list -- hara1@hara1-desktop:~$ updatedb --- updatedb: can not open a temporary file for `/var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db'22:04
tripelbr007 it cant find the file and it cant updatedb22:05
jparnellr007, pirinto: still nothing22:05
r007tripelb sorry forgot you need to do it with sudo22:05
Cpt_Zyphis there a channel for your netbook ubuntu release were i can ask spacific questions about that?22:05

Resnikis it possible that ubuntu daemon would not let me start a program that listens on port 80?22:06
jparnellpirinto: thanks, i feel like a total n00b22:06
Stefanos90Doyle,  yes now i can see the kernels and the recovery mode22:06
pirintojparnell, no it's cool I had to google for a pic of the T&C22:06
r007Resnik if you had apache installed yeah22:06
DoyleStefanos90: good, quick question, have you run sudo update-grub yet?22:06
pirintoit was a long time ago I installed the jre on ubuntu22:06
r007Resnik whats the ubuntu daemon though :)22:06
pcmcgarryquit22:06
r007Resnik you mean init ?22:06
Resnikr007: i'm new at linux, so probably that yes22:07
r007Resnik only if something else is using port 8022:07
tripelbr007 bingo. what time of day will my computer do updatedb ? are there other things I will have to manually do on this great userfriendly system? Big laff.22:07
antIPI installed Ubuntu on my notebook via USB drive and apparently it installed the boot loader on my USB drive and not on my noteooks hard drive, so I can only boot from the USB drive. How can I intall the boot loader to my hardrive?22:07
DoyleResnik: try starting the program from teh command line with -v, the error should be specific to port issues if that's the problem.22:07
r007Resnik tripelb not sure on time i always do it manually not much else springs to mind you have to22:08
ResnikDoyle: it does start in terminal, and it works, but i wna run it in background :/22:08
DoyleResnik: use bg22:08
r007tripelb go back to a slow unresponsive bloated os that is windows if youd prefer :)22:08
Resnikclosest i came to that was running it in screen22:09
Stefanos90Doyle,  no i am not at the terminal...22:09
ResnikDoyle: bg?22:09
tripelbroo7 no need to get snotty. I've been working on installing ubuntu for 2 months now. The only reason I installed windows at all was to have a working system on this computer. So there.22:09
r007Resnik do telnet22:09
antIPedbian: Hey what's up? Can you help me with something?22:09
r007Resnik open localhost 8022:09
tripelbr007 look up for roo7, sorry22:10
edbianantIP, Yes I can.22:10
DoyleStefanos90: I'm just asking if you've done 'sudo update-grub' yet22:10
edbianantIP, What's up?22:10
DoyleStefanos90: if not, pick the most recent OS from your OS list, press e, press e again then enter 3 at the end of the grub menu line.22:10
r007tripelb sarcasm is lost on the internet but thats why I added a smiley22:10
antIPedbian: I switched my PC entirely over to linux the other day, remember? (Last friday) Anyway, it's great. Now i'm installing UBuntu on my laptop via USB, and apparenlty the bootloader was installed on my USB drive, because when I take out the USB drive my notebook doesn't boot.22:11
Resnikr007: nothing is running on port 80 for sure22:11
r007Resnik what are you trying to start and what with init xinetd?22:11
edbianantIP, I do remember.  The USB drive as a bootloader on it (which lets you boot it in the first place) and the hdd (should) have a boot loader on it.22:11
antIPedbian: This is actually the second time this has happened on my laptop - where I can't boot linux unless I have me usb drive in.22:12
edbianantIP, What happens when you turn the notebook on?  Simply nothing happens?22:12
antIPedbian: When I take my usb drive out, the laptop doesn't boot into ubuntu. It just hangs with a black screen and blinking curor.22:12
DoyleResnik: when working with programs on the commandline, you can use Ctrl-z to force them the background. Use 'jobs' to see a list of running jobs, then 'fg <job number>' to bring the job to the forground when you want it back in front.22:12
antIPedbian: Bios runs ok.22:12
edbianantIP, Don't get confused.  The Ubuntu on the laptop and on the USB key are identical when you first install the system.  It is possible you've only ever booted the USB drive and never the actual hdd of the laptop.22:12
a_bugedbian: `sudo fdisk -l` please22:12
edbiana_bug, wrong nick22:13
a_bugwhy22:13
Stefanos90Doyle, why should i push e 2 times? when i push it once i can see the menu.22:13
Resnikr007: i'm trying to start polipo22:13
tripelbr007 its been many hours. lucky in the longago mainframe I was in the systems group doing some monster user program. so linux shell looks normal. but the learning curve is not fast. sorry mixed metaphor. i keep doing things in terminal.22:13
r007Rensik whats that Im not familiar22:13
Resnikr007: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Polipo22:14
Resnikproxy22:14
a_bugantIP: `sudo fdisk -l` please22:14
r007Rensik a proxy ok22:14
a_bugoops, sorry edbian22:14
edbianantIP, A black blinking cursor huh.  It bios posts but no grub?22:14
LinuxGuy2009Is there a logical reason why APTonCD leaves out lots of the dependencies when you select a meta-package such as ubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop even though I know I have all the packages and all updates for them in a folder?22:14
antIPedbian: Well, yeah, I literally just installed it. I did the updates and Ubuntu suggested a restart. So I restarted, pulled the USB drive out while the system was down, and now it wont boot.22:14
DoyleStefanos90: well, the goal is just to get to the point where we can put '3' at the end of the line. I'm used to pressing e twice.22:14
r007Rensik would that be running on port 80?22:15
=== marrusl is now known as marrusl_afk
=== marrusl_afk is now known as marrusl
antIPThe same thing happened when I installed LInux Mint last week from USB drive (using unetbootin). This time I used Ubuntu's start disk creator.22:15
Stefanos90Doyle, now I see "grub>_"22:15
Resnikr007: yes, i want it to run on that port22:15
antIPa_bug: I can't do that. I don't have a terminal? Should I boot into ubuntu from my USB drive and get into the terminal and do fdisk?22:16
edbianantIP, Which OS was suggesting updates?  The usb key or the newly installed system on the HDD?22:16
r007Rensik have you set it to run on port 80 in its config?22:16
antIPedbian: Correct, bios is fine, but no grub.22:16
Resnikr007: yes22:16
edbianantIP, Use the live USB, and choose boot from first hard drive.  Does it boot correctly in that case?22:16
antIPedbian: I only have one OS on my notebook right now. It's Ubunut 10.04, and as soon as I installed i did updates right away.22:17
edbianantIP, Ok.  Try booting with the live USB22:17
LinuxGuy2009Or better yet, is there any way to take a base install and be able to have apt-get grab packages from a local repository that I setup and copy them to /var/cache/apt/archives/ when I know that I already have them on my local repository? I'm trying to put together a repo DVD and I dont want lots of extra junk on it.22:17
DoyleStefanos90: terminal?22:17
antIPedbian: I have no idea. It my have just been on the USB.22:17
edbianantIP, but boot the hd22:17
antIPedbian: let me try that22:17
edbianantIP, k, lemme know.22:17
ratdogsigh, i really whish i could get the ATi driver installed for Lucid..22:18
r007Rensik what does netstat | grep 80 produce?22:18
trackpointHi22:18
antIPedbian, Ok. I set it to boot from HDD in bios. Same thing, blank black screen and blinking cursor. No grub.22:18
Resnikr007: unless i'm doing the command wrong, nothing.22:19
trackpointI am using the Netbook LiveCD on my Lenovo X61. Is there a GUI config for adjusting the trackpoint speed? It's _really_ slow.22:19
edbianantIP, It is possible that grub loaded correctly, started Ubuntu, and then Ubuntu is broken and freezing at boot time before anything happens.  I've seen that happen with updates before.22:19
Roastedwhat's up guys22:19
r007linuxguy2009 you could do that if you have a local server that hosts the repos just modify your sources to point to it22:19
RoastedWhat's the trick to dual booting Win 7 and Ubuntu? I thought by installing Ubuntu 2nd, it would be okay. But Win 7 is BSOD'ing on me whenever I select Win 7 @ boot screen.22:19
r007Resnik and your connected to the internet :)22:20
Stefanos90Doyle, i dont now what it is.... in the begining it says minimal bash-like line editind supported for the first word, TAB lists posible....22:20
edbianantIP, You basically have 3 options at this point.  Re-install Ubuntu 10.04 and don't do the updates.  Fresh install Ubuntu 9.10 and do the updates as usual.  Try to get into grub before it hands things over to the current Ubuntu install and change the boot options.22:20
LinuxGuy2009r007: How do I go about setting up the server? Can I run something that will kind of emulate one for me from a folder or something?22:20
edbianantIP, What do you wanna do? :)22:20
DoyleStefanos90: ok. type login22:20

Stefanos90Doyle, unknown command 'login'.22:21
r007Resnik something should have displayed22:21
edbianantIP, You're booting the operating system that's on the USB drive.  You don't wanna do that every time just to use the computer!  Plus you're stuck at the size of the usb drive for space.22:22
BaramI'm looking to get a blu-ray burner, anyone know if the Lite-ob iHBS112 or LG WH10LS30K work well under 10.04?22:22

a_bugI'm seeing GET/POST requests to strange IP addresses in my webserver logs, when I am sure none of my code is making those requests.... http://pastebin.ca/1946842 Can someone please explain why these are happening ?22:22
antIPEdbian: exactly.!!22:22
BaramantIP sounds like it upgraded your laptop, just like it should have22:23
hcookanybody tried using playonlinux to run civilization 5 yet?22:23
antIPedbian: I want to install ubuntu on my notebooks HDD22:23
edbianantIP, Yes, I know.  And it installed grub instead of the windows bootloader.  Grub is working (if it wasn't there you'd get an error about "no operating systems installed on this hdd")22:23
edbianantIP, Ubuntu is crashing very early in the boot process.22:23
antIPBaram: This really has nothing to do with the updates. This happens whenever i install linux via usb.22:24
edbianantIP, Do you have the live USB up and running right now?22:24
r007Resnik have you tried setting it to start in rc3.d?22:24
Resnikr007: netstat works, but port 80 is not listed.22:24
r007Resnik replacing rc*.d with the runlevel your using22:24
cjones_is thisw the right room for the netboodk edetion22:24
Resnikr007: how can i do that? :s22:25
LinuxGuy2009r007: I installed apache2. Is this a command line tool that I just need to read the man page for or is there a GUI somewhere?22:25
antIPedbian: Dude, when i boot from the USB it's not a "live CD" anymore. It doesn't start up and ask me if I want to install Ubuntu like a regular live cd.22:25
edbianantIP, I have a new idea.  Let's try to get into the grub boot menu.  Restart the notebook.  After the bios post screen but before the blinking cursor, press the shift key.  This should launch a grub menu.22:25
r007linuxguy2009 you can get a gui22:26
r007Resnik vi /etc/rcd*.d22:26
ratdoganyone else having trouble with the ATi driver on Lucid?22:26
edbianantIP, Do all that without the usb key in.22:27
r007linuxguy2009 otherwise get editing /etc/apache2/conf/httpd.conf22:27
DoyleStefanos90: ok, try 'sudo update-grep'22:27
LinuxGuy2009r007: Know which package(s) might give me a GUI?22:27
r007linuxguy2009 path might not be 100% my work with apache is on red hat based boxes so its not apache2 but httpd22:27
antIPedbian: ok. PS. In fdisk sda1 is my USB drive. sdb1 is my HDD.22:28
r007linuxguy2009 dont know I dont use guis22:28
edbianantIP, That suggests to me that the USB drive is the operating system you're running.22:28
LinuxGuy2009r007: ok Ill just read the man page I guess or look for a tutorial somewhere. Thank you.22:28
edbianantIP, Although it doesn't prove anything.22:28
edbianantIP, df -h will show you what file systems are mounted where.  You can see what device is mounted at / and tell very easily what OS you're running.  The USB key or the HDD.22:29
Stefanos90Doyle, unknown command 'sudo'. i don't think it is terminall...22:29
antIPedbian: I'm looking at my usb drive right now, and Linux OS is NOT running from my USB drive. It doesn't have a home folder or anything, it's just a live cd22:29
edbianantIP, use df -h and tell me what that sys.22:29
BitEncryptneed help compileing dlink driver22:29
edbiansays22:29
DoyleStefanos90: unknown territory. Remov ethe 3 again, then when you're back tot he grub menu press 'c'22:30
Resnikr007: in rc4.d ... S20polipo22:30
antIPsdb1 (the HDD) is /  ### sda1 is /media/3b6b-d0ab22:30
r007Rensik rc3.d is usually the gui22:30
antIPSO the OS is the HDD22:30
edbianantIP, So the only problem is that grub appears to be either missing or not booting Ubuntu.22:31
antIPedbian: sdb1 (the HDD) is /  ### sda1 is /media/3b6b-d0ab22:31
Stefanos90Doyle, yes it shows again the same 'grub>_'22:31
antIPedbian: correct22:31
r007Rensik one sec let me check im more familar with red hat run levels22:31
antIPedbian: Do you want me to restart and try getting into grub?22:31
edbianantIP, try this: sudo grub-install /dev/sdb22:32
edbianantIP, No22:32
edbianantIP, Just try to re-install it first.  Then we'll restart and try to get into the grub menu.22:32
r007Rensik technically 3 4 or 5 should work but would go with 322:32
DoyleStefanos90: ok, what does boot output for you?22:32
edbianantIP, This is a very confusing problem!  So many OS's flying around!22:32
edbian:P22:32
antIPedbian: Installation finished no error reported.22:33
TELL0what's better for a minimal installation, server cd or alternate cd?22:33
edbianantIP, Try to reboot.  See if it worked.  Jam on that shift key like it's your job.22:33
antIPedbian: k22:33
erUSUL!minmal | TELL022:33
edbianTELL0, Well do you want a server?22:33
erUSUL!minimal | TELL022:33
ubottuTELL0: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD22:33
Stefanos90Doyle, what you mena? my english are not good...22:33
adzyNo speak the good english22:33

stevefed5291hey everyone, quick (and possibly stupid question): I'm making a custom livecd, and I want to put a link on the desktop, what folder would that be on the disk? /root/desktop?22:34
antIPedbian: Ok. Grub came up, and is giving me the options of Ubuntu or Memory Test. Everything looks normal.22:34
edbianstevefed5291, /home/ubuntu/Desktop22:34
r007Tello minimal instalation you want the minimal.iso usually net install on other distros22:34
edbianantIP, This is all without the USB drive plugged in right?22:35
edbianantIP, So far so good.  Grub is installed on their and it runs.22:35
antIPedbian: Yes, without me usb drive in.22:35
edbianantIP, Try to boot Ubuntu, see what happens.22:35
antIPedbian: yea, should i boot into ubuntu?22:35
antIPedbian: ok22:35
jparnellok, so are there any JULinux guru's in here?22:35
stevefed5291I thought so, but after entering the chroot, the /home/ubuntu/desktop folder doesn't exist. Is it created at boot? Should I create it now to make the link?22:35
DoyleStefanos90: type 'boot' into the grub command22:36
edbianstevefed5291, Not sure?  I know it's there when you're running a live CD.  Try creating one.22:36
Stefanos90Doyle, no loaded kernel22:36
antIPedbian: well, everything is starting up fine.22:36
edbianantIP, Well then it seems like we fixed it :)22:36
DoyleStefanos90: 'linux' then 'boot'22:36
stevefed5291ok, thanks edbian22:36
edbianantIP, Try to reboot without going into grub.22:36
edbianstevefed5291, Sure22:36
Resnikr007: looks like its something i missed in conf file22:37
Stefanos90Doyle, invalid file name 'boot'22:37
r007Resnik cool what was it?22:37
antIPedbian: sure does. checked for updates and everything is up to date. so we're good. THANKS!!!! No more windows on my laptop!!!!22:37
antIPSOrry gues22:37
edbianantIP, :D  Glad I could help.22:38
antIPSorry for yelling like that.22:38
edbianantIP, IT'S OK! :P22:38
r007antIP heres to a nice stable and fast computer experience from now on :022:38
DoyleStefanos90: sorry, just type 'linux' then press enter22:38
Resnikr007: http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/polipo/polipo.html#Daemon22:38
bsmith093is there a way to make wget resume amirror from where it left off?22:38
r007antIP unless you break something lol22:39
DoyleStefanos90: if that goes, then type 'boot'22:39
edbianIsn't Linux the best OS in the world?  If that had been windows we'd have been struggling just to figure out what the hell was wrong!22:39
Stefanos90Doyle, no kernel specified22:39
Resnikr007: atleast i hope, as i can't find daemonise string in default config.22:39
antIProo7: oh, yeah. Linux has always run faster and more stable on my laptop than windows did. I'm just glad to be done with dual booting.22:39
Doyleedbian: no such thing as the best os in the world... most appropriate for the situation maybe22:39
r007Resnik you assigned it a PID22:39
r007Resnik ?22:40
Resnikr007: nope22:40
ehcahIs there any way to pastebin from a terminal vi session?22:40
DoyleStefanos90: ok 'quit' give me a few minutes. I gotta research this then22:41
edbianehcah, I don't think you can pastebin from within vi but there is a pastebin cli.22:41
bsmith093pastebinit blah22:41
r007Resnik tbh cant be arsed reading all that lol22:41
MrSpringHas anyone heard of [as safe to use] the free kindle reader available via Amazon?  My sis is doing an Open University course & is asking me... Iand if known of, would/does it work on Wine. I've so nearly convinced her to move to Ubuntu - I don't want another "but why" if poss.]  Thanks in advance.22:41
DoyleStefanos90: does your PC have a raid setup?22:42
Stefanos90Doyle, no22:42
Resnikr007: np, ill figure out something :)22:42
archangelpetroif you wanna create a link to a python script.. you've run.. if you copy it to /usr/local/bin.. you get a permission denied error (kinda for obvious reasons).. but is there a nice way to circumvent this? or actually just have a 'shortcut' execute option without putting it in /usr/local/bin?22:42
regeyayou could check winehq, MrSpring.  I think it does but I won't swear to it.  If not, I bet the book is DRMed so it might not work in Calibre, but that'd be a nice 2nd attempt if you can't get Kindle reader to work.22:43
edbianarchangelpetro, sudo cp /path/to/script /usr/local/bin/scriptName22:43
hcookehcah: if you have pastebinit i think you can do    :w | pastebinit     in vi...22:43
hcookbut i haven't tested that22:43
archangelpetroedbian: ah so you just copy the script directly? can't you link the file?22:43
edbianarchangelpetro, You could also create a symlink in /usr/local/bin that points to the file somewhere else.22:43
archangelpetrobecause i want to maintina it22:43
archangelpetrowell edbian i did this.22:43
edbianarchangelpetro, Are you getting an error when you try to create the link or when you try to run the file?22:44
ehcahI'm going to get laughed at - again - but I can not get vnc working correctly. My xstartup file appears to be fine, but some files it references are not. I have an error opening the security policy, can init several files and finally a permission error. Does seem to matter if i start VNC as root or me?22:44
tigertv69hey guys.. i just got a usb 3g connect card.. how do i get it working with my ubuntu?22:44
archangelpetrosudo ln -s /home/username/solder/tools/pe_info.py pe_info22:44
tigertv69its hte tmobile Rocket 2.022:44
archangelpetroedbian: after i've created the symlink22:44
undecimarchangelpetro: I have a ~/.bin folder that I keep custom executables in and just call them as ".bin/executable"22:44
archangelpetroand i try and run the pe_info .. i get permissions error22:44
edbianarchangelpetro, sudo chmod +x /path/to/script22:45
archangelpetroundecim: but that works only if you're in the ~/ folder, right? what if you're a fe wlevels down in the file-tree22:45
edbianarchangelpetro, cancel that.22:45
edbianarchangelpetro, chmod +x /path/to/script22:45
undecimarchangelpetro: from bash, just use ~/.bin/executable or add ~/.bin to your path22:45
edbianarchangelpetro, undecim using /usr/local/bin is perfectly acceptable if you're on a machine that you have root on.  That's what this folder is for!22:45
archangelpetroahh edbian undecim figured it out, i hadn't got my python script to be executable... duh :d22:46
edbianarchangelpetro, but undecim's suggestion is true and does work.  It is proper on systems you don't have root on.22:46
tigertv69anyone?22:46
undecimedbian: Yes, but if you want to be able to edit them as user, not root?22:46
matcoutoHey y'all. How can I check if the 5590 port is open to receive request from outside my network? I've set the forward rules on my router configurations already... I'm trying to configurate the vncserver here. Anyone?22:46
edbianundecim, That's why he has a link22:46
regeyaMrSpring:  http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=1834422:46
tigertv69basically i have the tmobile web connect rocket 2.0 i want it to work on ubuntu? how do i get it workn?22:46
edbianarchangelpetro, Glad I could help! :)22:46
archangelpetrothanks guys :022:46
edbianundecim, The link is owned by root (it doesn't actually matter who owns it) the file is owned by him.22:47
Stefanos90Doyle, are you here?22:47
undecimmatcouto: Try to open a VNC connection to port 5590 to the address that wimi.com reports.22:47
DoyleStefanos90: ya22:47
Walugodoes the latest version of ubuntu's installer livecd come with ndiswrapper/tools?22:47
undecimedbian: Ahh... I thought links maintained permissions of the original file. Does this work for both hardlinks and symlinks?22:47
r007/usr/bin is owened by root though22:47
BitEncryptWhere is the /temp file22:47
undecimBitEncrypt: /tmp?22:48
edbianundecim, IDK bout hardlinks.  no the softlink will have it's own permissions22:48
edbianr007, Everything but stuff in the home folders is owned by root.22:48
BitEncryptundecim, directions say /temp22:48
Stefanos90Doyle, I must go.. my eyes are becoming squares from the screen (get tired) I will log in tomorow again22:49
delinquentmeis there any way i can set the ubuntu search program to ADDITIONALLY search HIDDEN files .. and not just those that are unhidden??22:49
MrSpringregeya, cheers & thanks... is it known to be safe in the meantime (*as in not a 'trap' or a malicious application?22:49
undecimBitEncrypt: What directions?22:49
matcoutoundecim: just like that $vncviewer xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5590   ?22:49
BitEncryptundecim, http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/redhat-fedora-linux-help/84076-d-link-dfe-530tx-netword-card-doesnt-work.html22:49
undecimmatcouto: I would assume. I've never used vncviewer command.22:49
Stefanos90Doyle, I will search for you, if you are here, thank you for your help22:49
edbiandelinquentme, ls -a  ?22:49
r007edbian but you need root or have specified perms for people to execute stuff in those directories22:49
DoyleStefanos90: ok, goodl luck22:50
Stefanos90Doyle, cu22:50
edbianr007, None root people can execute a file owned by root.  Their execute permissions for the owner, group, and everybody else.22:50
delinquentmeedbian, i mean like in the applications > accessories > search for files thinger22:50
pflanzeHello. I'd like to disable the compositing features (with metacity). How would I do that?22:50
r007edbian i.e specify perms22:50
edbianr007, It's possible that the owner is not allowed to execute but other are.  Although the owner could also change that.22:50
undecimBitEncrypt: That directory looks like just a temporary directory specific to those instructions. Just use "temp" instead of "/temp" to put the directory in your home directory22:50
=== felipeguima is now known as l3gi0nari0
edbiandelinquentme, oh in the gui.  IDK who uses that?22:50
VCooliopflanze: in gconf-edtitor, see if there is something to disable in applications > metacity22:51
BitEncryptundecim, ok thx22:51
pflanzeVCoolio: thanks, checking.22:51
undecimBitEncrypt: But that is for the driver disk that comes with the card. Do you have the driver disk?22:51
delinquentmeedbian, UI designers :D22:51
BitEncryptundecim, yes22:51
m_fulderhey22:51
edbianr007, You should read up on it:22:51
undecimBitEncrypt: Well, then do this: just open the disk with a package manager and extract the tar.gz on there.22:52
edbianr007, http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/filepermissions.html22:52
edbiandelinquentme, ha ha :)22:52
cjones_how can  i hide the forgorund menu items in the netbook ed22:52
r007edbian the perms still need to be set it wont work out of the box22:52
undecimBitEncrypt: From there, you should be able to open a terminal, cd into the directory of the extracted tar.gz, and skip to step 5.22:52
MrSpringregeya: re..cheers & thanks... is it known to be safe in the meantime (*as in not a 'trap' or a malicious application?  again... thanks - much appreciated.22:53
edbianr007, Now you're getting situation specific.  I don't know what you mean.22:53
BitEncryptundecim, thx22:53
undecimBitEncrypt: Also, I hate to be the one to tell you this, but it looks like you would have to repeat this every time you update your kernel.22:53
m_fulderI'm trying to install ubuntu 10.04 on my new HDD but get this error: http://pastebin.org/1094052 ... why is that :S ... it's after I input my CD reboot choose CD-RM from boot menu then a ubuntu menu shows and I press install ubuntu...it loads and then the screen with that text is shown22:53
r007edbian what are the perms on said script?22:53
m_fulderany ideas what Im doing wrong?22:53
=== l3gi0nari0 is now known as felipeguima
undecimBitEncrypt: Have you made sure there isn't a driver in the repositories for this? It would save you a lot of headache.22:53
edbianr007, IDK, it's not mine.  Ask him.22:53
benjamintheyonI just bought a Brother wifi printer (HL 5370DW) and I have not installed it. I just noticed that it cannot be set with static IP - will this cause trouble for Ubuntu printing wirelessly?22:53
edbianr007, He did chmod +x script name.  If that's what you're getting at.22:54
r007edbian he should have specified :)22:54
BitEncryptundecim, ill check22:54
r007edbian but whats wrx22:54
TheFuzzballI want to start screen when I open terminal, how can I do that?22:54
edbianr007, read write and execute.22:55
VCoolioTheFuzzball: gnome-terminal -e screen22:55
edbianr007, write read execute is the order you asked22:55
r007edbian if its in a root owened directory but not been chmoded then it wont run22:55
Loshkim_fulder: my first guess is that you have a bad burn on your cd-rom. Can you burn another?22:55
regeyabeats me MrSpring...google is your friend. :-D22:55
undecimBitEncrypt: This is a really old thread (2005), but apparently, the card mentioned in your link works in Ubuntu just fine, but just won't automatically connect for some unknown reason. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=9823422:55
r007edbian not the order but waht are the wrx perms?22:56
edbianr007, If it's anywhere and not chmod +x'd it won't run.22:56
regeyasomeday I'll have to check out the kindle app, but that day is not today...22:56
edbianr007, IDK,  ask him.  All I know is the x bit is set for everybody because he did chmod +x on it22:56
cjones_how can  i hide the forgorund menu items in the netbook ed22:56
edbianr007, I feel like we're going in circles22:56
r007edbian chmod +x only makes it executible22:56
ohiois kernel 2.6.35 installable in ubuntu 10.0422:56
r007edbian doesent say who by22:56
Doyleis it aliases or aliasi?22:57
VCoolioDoyle: in english, aliases, in latin, neither22:57
edbianr007, chmod +x makes it executable for owner, group, and everybody.22:57
jetoleHey guys. For someone reason I can't do ls -A ~ when .gvfs is mounted. Natuilus freezes and so does find when it hits that dir (I did an strace). I killed the mount and fusermount for .gvfs and I can now do an ls -A but .gvfs is unmounted. Does anyone know anything about this or any idea how I might be able to find what the issue is?22:57
edbianr007, It puts x's across the board.22:57
m_fulderLoshki,  don't think I got a bad burn ... downloaded my iso from: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download   (64 bit) but I've burned it to a CD-rom it seem there was an error with burning to CD and burning to DVD should solve this problem (thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1556602) ... so maybe I'll just try to burn on a DVD-RW instead22:57
DoyleVCoolio: thanks22:57
undecimDoyle: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_plural_form_of_the_word_alias. I think you only have the "i" pluralization for stuff that ends in "us", like cactus -> cactii22:58
r007edbian my bad sorry it does22:58
edbianr007, No worries :)22:58
gverigwhat controls file associations in Nautilus (or maybe it's even outside Nautilus, system level)?22:59
MrSpringregeya: cheers,  I was about to Gooogle for the answer but in view of how close I am to converting sister to Ubuntu I thought I'd ask the people that can be trusted first ;0   again - thanks for thew help and the link [if Wine HQ says ok - guess it is.22:59
r007edbian does it in a root owened directory though?22:59
gverigMy system started opening partitions / locations in VLC :-\22:59
Loshkim_fulder: yes, that's what I would do. Burn a dvd...22:59
edbianr007, If you're not the owner of the file you can't change the permissions on it.  If you are the owner you can change permissions on it. It doesn't matter what folder it's in.22:59
edbianr007, Although I believe root can do anything.  (change permissions on a file / folder he doesn't own)23:00
r007edbian not on about changing on about would it give x to everyone outside of ownership?23:00
rolandpishI'm about to install swiftfox in a ubuntu lucid box. How can I know if my intel processor is a prescott or a i686?23:00
SerjaOkay, I'm having a CTD issue with a program that was working just fine before I updated my kernel, but now one program that was fail works almost flawlessly and the one that was working mostly okay now does a CTD. The only crash report I can get out of it was an access violation.23:00
r007edbian it does in /home but what about /root for example?23:00
edbianr007, yeah.  The last rwx are for "everybody else"23:00
m_fulderLoshki,  oki will burn one thanks :)23:00
r007^^23:00
edbianr007, Files don't have anything to do with their parent directory.  Only their own file permissions23:01
Doyleundecim: good one, that's very enlightening23:01
r007edbian your missing my point does chmod +x in say /root make it x for everyone or just root it would in /home I know23:01
edbianr007, chmod +x in /root would make the file executable for everybody yes.23:02
edbianr007, Assuming you can chmod +x the file in the first place.23:02
r007edbian it does I just tried23:03
edbianr007, :)23:03
speedrunnerG55hey guys23:03
LinuxGuy2009Im reading here http://www.packtpub.com/article/create-local-ubuntu-repository-using-apt-mirror-apt-cacher that I can somehow create a symbolic link in /var/www/ and the folder will show up as a local IP address, but Im having trouble does anyone know how this works?23:03
edbianr007, I don't sense that you have any confidence in me :)23:03
r007edbian no I just like to challenge lol23:04
speedrunnerG55hey , guys?23:04
edbianr007, That thinking is welcome here! :)23:04

danthepianomanI'm a windows guy, I've never used ubuntu until just last week23:08
tigertv69anyone know23:08
danthepianomanand my boss needs me to setup a machine to monitor our servers at work and see when one of them drops or has a problem23:08
tigertv69do i have an impossible task?23:08

VCooliotigertv69: you asked something at 23:50 CET, that is yesterday for me, do you suppose anyone remembers? just ask the full question again23:10
danthepianomanYeah, we have all windows machines, even the servers, but he wants to use ubuntu to monitor them :\23:10
r007think it has to do with the fact its the windows boxes that actually need monitoring23:10
tigertv69sure..,23:10
tigertv69i want to connect my tmobile rocket 2.0 to ubuntu23:10
tigertv69for 3g modem23:10
danthepianomanso when setting up nagios23:10
danthepianomanI have an account on ubuntu already23:11
r007not familiar with it Im afraid23:11
danthepianomanbut in the tutorial it says to create a new user group and name23:11
danthepianomando I have to do that? I want nagios to be installed on the account already made23:11
crucialhoaxAnyone here own an Acer 532h Netbook?23:11
r007you will need to give it a user and group yes23:11
tigertv69that was my question but i seems like its impossible?23:11
r007but you can add it to root for example23:12
crucialhoaxAnyone here own an Acer 532h Netbook that got bluetooth working?23:12
TheFuzzballAnyone know how to get back Ctrl+Alt+Esc and Ctrl+Alt+Bksp?23:12
danthepianomanso the account I made when I initially setup ubuntu on the machine, is that the root account or do I have to access root through terminal?23:12
danthepianomancause the problem I am having is when I go to edit the email in the configuration file for nagios, I have to login to the nagios user account to edit it even though I'm on the main account I made before anything23:13
r007danthepianoman no that will be the user you log on with i.e dan23:13
VCoolioTheFuzzball: use ctrl+sysrq+k for login screen; what is c-a-Esc supposed to do?23:13
VCoolioTheFuzzball: alt-sysrq-k that is23:13
danthepianomanoh23:13

VCoolioTheFuzzball: ah, xkill you mean? I don't know, I'd say setup a custom keybinding yourself23:14
r007danthepianoman ubuntu does not have an accesible root ogin by default you can set one using sudo passwd root23:14
DoyleIs access control enabled or disabled by default? xhost23:14
david506when I load a kernel module I compiled, dmesg complains of unknown symbols. So I typed " depmod --all --show | grep missing_symbol_name" and it gave me the kernel module that has the symbol, I did lsmod and the mentioned modules are there, the symbols are listed in modules.symbols. Why won't it load ?23:15
r007danthepianoman or use su or su -r23:15
danthepianomanOh ok23:15
ben_hey, I have a problem with ubuntu, anyone want to help me?23:17
jribben_: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)23:17
r007!ask ben_23:17
ben_cool, okay, so I have Ubuntu on my Mac Mini (core2Duo) as my only operating system. I have managed to get the sound working, but I have a 720p HDTV hooked up to the mini-display port and the max res it will put out is 640x480. I really need a higher resolution, being as I use my computer a lot for movies.23:18
oliverc_Hey, any clever folk know if it's possible to mount a remote dvd drive, on this local machine?23:19
ben_I have lucid btw'23:19
oliverc_(over the same network)23:19
r007ben_ have you modified xorg.conf with the resolotion23:19
ben_yes, several times, but it keeps reverting to the "auto" selection which is 640x48023:20
r007oliverc_ if you have it shared yes you can23:20
ben_it will not even allow me the option to set it to 1360x768 even though I put that in the xorg.conf23:20
oliverc_r007: no, it's a dvd, not an actual file system23:20
danthepianomanI'm curious to see how ubuntu would be on my gaming machine haha23:23
ben_I am also using the Nvidia server settings for display configuration. since the ubuntu defaul display configuration manager does not even detect the TV as being connected.23:23
danthepianomanphenom II x4 955 BE, 4GB DDR3, nvidia 9600 GSO 512mb23:23
Gneaben_: this was based off of ubuntuforums.org?23:23
olskolircwhy is it taking so long to enter rooms lately23:23
ben_I'm sorry, gnea, I'm not sure what you're asking23:24
Dulakit really screws up the auto register stuff, hope they fix it soon23:24
r007oliverc_ share the dvd drive23:24
LinuxGuy2009Whats the easiest way to get apt-get to see a local folder as a network address so that I can add the folder as an apt source and have apt-get actually download the files to the /var/cache/ apt/archives/?23:25
danthepianomandoes the steam platform work on ubuntu? and games like counter-strike source?23:25
r007oliverc_ cdfs or whatever is a file system just like ext3, ntfs fat etc23:26

danthepianomanlol23:26
ben_Gnea: I'm not sure what you're asking.23:26
danthepianomanwell I guess I'm not installing ubuntu on my gaming machine XD23:26
r007danthepianoman I hate windows but thats all its good for is gaming23:26
danthepianomanjust curious to see how powerful my machine would be with this operating system23:26
erUSULdanthepianoman: if it is a gaming machine then use windows23:26
PirateUnderweardanthepianoman: Use virtual box :)23:27
roboflakwith the gui samba sharing, when you allow guest write access it creates files as the user nobody with only user write permissions ... is there any way to modify this to allow global write permissions?23:27
danthepianomanhaha23:27
danthepianomanwhat do you think about a quad core phenom II and 4GB ddr3 with a geforce 9600 on ubuntu would be like?23:27
danthepianomantotal overkill?23:27
area51pilotwhat is a good network file sync program23:27
r007if the developers pulled there finger out it would be different main problems are the gfx drivers23:27
crunchbangIf I create a usb boot disk, then how can I stop it from open my cd drive on shutdown?23:27
erUSULarea51pilot: rsync23:27
roboflakdanthepianoman, that sounds like my ubuntu machine's specs23:27
r007games are commercial Linux isnt23:28
r007or gnu23:28
danthepianomanhow does it run roboflak?23:28
rodolfohi all23:28
roboflakpretty nice!23:28
bgdn86why is PSX not in the repositories anymore?23:28
danthepianomannice haha23:28
PirateUnderwearcrunchbang: I think you would have to create a custom .iso or modify it to stop it.23:28
roboflaki can't really notice it slow down ... ever23:28
FableflameI'm trying to install Alchemy. It came in a tar.gz. I extracted it, but I'm not sure what to do next.23:28
ewaehi Is someone know the tuxdroid chatroom?23:28
r007do you mean epsxe?23:28
bgdn86yes23:28
r007I was wondering the same23:29
crunchbangeven when I do, unetbootin still opens the drive.23:29
crunchbangif I burn it with unetbootin23:29
darthbatorhey guys I had a quick question. I was about to setup and mdadm disk array, and I noticed that my drives change their "device" with each boot23:29
bgdn86it was there just a few weeks ago >:(23:29
PirateUnderwearcrunchbang: It does it while making the usb?23:29
Gneaben_: okay, I guess there might have been some documentation on it... guess I was wrong23:29
darthbatorsometimes sda becomes sd and vice versa23:29
ewaeis it available?23:29
r007you can download it from the espxe website23:29
darthbatoris there any way that I can make the raid with uuid's or labels so that I can make sure that the devices changing between boots doesn't ruin it23:30
erUSULdarthbator: that's very weird .... what sata controller?23:30
area51piloterUSUL: does rsyc work on all boxes and across the domain23:30
crunchbangno, only when I shutdown after using the bootable usb. Like when you run a live cd, only this is not from a live cd image.23:30
erUSULdarthbator: /dev/disk/by-uuid/23:30
ben_Gnea: it happens. there's nearly no documentation on it. some people have magically gotten it to work but have not posted how. I just need someone who knows more than me to help me troubleshoot23:30
r007rsync works on all nix23:30
erUSULarea51pilot: all boxes means windows?23:30
Gneaben_: I guess I'd stop using gdm and launching X from tty1 like this: X > X.log 2>&123:31
PirateUnderwearcrunchbang: It's just a built in thing because the .iso on the usb is the same as if it was a real cd. Like I said you would have to manually change that but I wouldn't even bother with it. :)23:31
Gneaben_: when it comes up, kill it then read the log23:31
area51piloterUSUL: yes, including ... ugh ... Windows boxes23:31
crunchbangyes, but the iso image isn't from a live cd- it's from a system installed in virtualbox, then made into an iso with remastersys.23:32
danthepianomanso23:32
area51piloterUSUL: I waant to to keep a synced copy of files on a Windows server backed up to a Linux box23:32
danthepianomanwhen working in the terminal, when I do the command "sudo vi /etc/apache2/apache2.conf"23:32
ben_Gnea: okay, I'll try and see what happens. I'm pretty new to linux in general, mind telling me exactly how to do what you are suggesting23:32
danthepianomanthat will open the config file in the terminal23:32
=== douglas is now known as speedrunnerg55
ben_?*23:32
danthepianomanI need to add the line directoryindex index.html index.php index.cgi23:33
PirateUnderwearcrunchbang: That's weird. So you installed it in a virtual box and when you shut down it opens the cdrom?23:33
r007area51pilot you cant use rsync on a windows box you can use it to write to a windows box23:33
danthepianomando I just type that in anywhere? or does it have to go in a specific place?23:33
Gneaben_: ctrl-alt-f1 should get you to tty1 (alt-f7 back to X if need be), login, then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop23:33
erUSULarea51pilot: make the windows box export the dir via smb. mount it in linux rsync with a local dir23:33
danthepianomanthe tutorial is not specific it just says add the line23:33
r007or does cygwin work that well lol?23:33
Gneaben_: X by itself launches X basic, nothing special, just grey screen and cursor23:34
ben_Gnea: thank you, I'll try that23:34
coafcvhey. how can I make totem show the current title played when listening to an internet radio station? It did this with 9.04, but 10.04 doesn't show it.23:34
crunchbangno, I used virtualbox and remastersys to create an iso image that wasn't made from a live cd. However, when I boot into the usb on the host machine, when I shut down, it opens the cd drive. I would guess it is either remastersys or unetbootin doing this.23:34

danthepianomanhow do I manipulate a .conf file in terminal?23:36
datacrusherhello everyone, is there a way to watch a web broadcast, that in the site asks to install windows media player? is there a way to copy the path, open on vlc, totem or some sort of media player emulator? i need to watch this: http://www.usp.br/prc/eventos/proext/aovivo.php23:36
danthepianomanI did sudo vi /etc/apache2/apache2.conf23:36
danthepianomannow I have the config file up and am supposed to add a line to it but I have no idea where or how to do so23:36
r007danthepianoman vi /*.conf23:36
FableflameI'm trying to install Alchemy. It came in a tar.gz. I extracted it, but I'm not sure what to do next.23:36
GneaFableflame: why a tar.gz?23:37
datacrusheriv tryed oppening im totem, but i need a x-mmsh, iv found a libmmsh but still cant watch23:37
r007danthepianoman try nano /*.conf23:37
danthepianomantype that in?23:37
FableflameGnea, that was the only format the download came in23:37
danthepianomanlike in the .conf file that is open now?23:37
GneaFableflame: googling for 'ubuntu alchemy' found no .deb?23:37
r007danthepianoman yeah a txt editor thats easy to use than vi23:37
r007easier23:38
danthepianomanhow do I go back to before I did the vi?23:38
danthepianomanlike back to the terminal I was on23:38

FableflameGnea, I haven't googled for it yet, but apparently GetDeb can install it23:38
GneaFableflame: awesome23:38
r007danthepianoman for example nano /etc/hosts23:38

danthepianomanso type !q?23:40
geraudk2000hi guys, what downlad manage you use for ubuntu23:41
DulakLinuxGuy2009: you could try cherokee instead, it's much simpler with it's web-based admin control23:41
avsshi23:41
r007after pressing shift : yes23:41
GneaLinuxGuy2009: file:///path/to/your/folder23:41
danthepianomanok cool23:41
FableflameGnea, ugh, I tried to install with GetDeb and it said it couldn't find the package23:41
geraudk2000what download manager do you use for ubuntu (gnome)  ?23:41
danthepianomandoesn't let me type23:41
danthepianomanI hit keys and nothing goes in23:41
danthepianoman:\23:41
LinuxGuy2009Gnea: Yeah I tried that but apt-get doesnt download the files to the local /var/cache/apt/archives/ folder which is what I need.23:41
Dulakgeraudk2000: gwget is the one I use23:42
LinuxGuy2009Dulak: Cool Ill try that. Thank you.23:42
danthepianomanomggggg23:42
danthepianomanthis is driving me nuts23:42
r007linuxguy2009 all you need to do is put your files in /home/www/vhosts or /home/vhosts23:42
GneaFableflame: did you setup getdeb correctly?23:42
Dulakr007: /var/www is the default docroot23:42
SerjaThanks23:42
FableflameGnea, I don't think I have the repositories yet23:42
geraudk2000Dulak: okay, I going to try this23:43
GneaFableflame: they might prove useful23:43
r007Dulak no its not it varies23:43
FableflameGnea, lol I had them at one point, but I think I've reinstalled since then23:43
r007Dulak you use Plesk dont you23:43
LinuxGuy2009r007: Yeah i know there is a /var/www/ but I have no idea how that works. I read something about making a symlink and accessing it via the local IP like 192.168.x.x. The directions I saw were very vague.23:44
Gnea:)23:44
r007Plesk puts it in var23:44
brandon420ummmm23:44
dibsif I start an app like say 'tilda' from a bash terrminal, how can I detatch it so I can close the terminla without killing 'tilda'??23:44
danthepianomanthis terminal shit is driving me nuts23:44
Dulakr007: it hasn't varied as long as I've used ubuntu, the default docroot for all the webservers in ubuntu defaults to /var/www23:44
brandon420guys i just got a new external hdd, i need some help formating it ubuntu, needs to be ntfs23:44
Dulakr007: no plesk, just ubuntu23:44
GneaLinuxGuy2009: do you just want to view a .html file locally or what?23:44
danthepianomanI have no idea where to put "DirectoryIndex index.html index.php index.cgi" inside of the "sudo vi /etc/apache2/apache2.conf" like the tutorial is telling me to do23:44
danthepianomanany ideas r007?23:44
r007Dulak maybe then my server experience is red hat based distros fedora centos etc23:45
danthepianomandoes it even matter where I put the line?23:45
LjLdibs: one was is to run "screen", but i'm not sure that's the best way in the case of a GUI app like tilda23:45
Resnikr007: it was problem with user permissions for that program, i tricked it by editing passwd and changing that user id to 0:0 :/23:45
Gneabrandon420: there is a mkfs.ntfs command23:45
r007danthepianoman not really23:45
danthepianomanoh ok cool23:45
danthepianomanso I just added it all the way at the bottom23:45
r007danthepianoman what was the line?23:45
danthepianomanI have no idea where to put "DirectoryIndex index.html index.php index.cgi" inside of the "sudo vi /etc/apache2/apache2.conf" like the tutorial is telling me to do23:46

r007Rensik cool23:46
PirateUnderwearcrunchbang: Not sure,danthepianoman DirectoryIndex needs to go inside of your .htaccess file23:46
PirateUnderwearopps23:46
LinuxGuy2009Gnea: No I want to put a boat load of deb packages into a folder and install them with "sudo apt-get install -d package.deb" so that I can get just that package and its deps and nothing more. APTonCD doesnt work the best on meta-packages for example.23:46
PirateUnderweardanthepianoman: It needs to go inside your .htaccess file23:46

Gneabrandon420: do you have ntfsprogs installed?23:46
Dulakr007: yeah it does vary across distros but we're in the ubuntu channel so I assumed he is using ubuntu, which defaults to /var/www for the default vhost23:47
brandon420not sure, that came from the disk manager23:47
brandon420Gnea,23:47
r007danthepianoman you can leave that as the default its only how apache handles requests for the extensions but .html .php etc shuld work out of the box23:47
ben_Gnea: okay, so I did that, and then I couldn't get back to X. what's odd though, is tty1 was running on my mini-display port, so the command line showed up on my TV, not my monitor23:47
Gneabrandon420: look at your package manager23:47

LinuxGuy2009Dulak: Ok cool Ill take a look. Thanks very much.23:50
GneaLinuxGuy2009: it can be daunting at first, but maybe you could just use a cronjob to mimic the files in cache with what you want available via the web?23:50
ben_Gnea: I didn't creat the log file, one moment, I'll do it again. btw, thnk you so much for your help23:50
LinuxGuy2009Gnea: That was way over my head23:51
GneaLinuxGuy2009: yeah, php and mysql aren't needed for it23:51
