[00:00] niteshade, What is your problem? Can I help? [00:00] @niteshade yeah but at least you know that with the linux communities you might get help [00:01] my controller won't work right [00:01] Devilz_108, thank you i know how to google. now if you can provide a link or instructions that actually explain what I want done instead of a whole bunch of windows' howto's or incomplete howto's it would actually be useful [00:01] how do i mount vhd in ubuntu? [00:01] edbian, you still in here? [00:02] tortoise, Yep [00:02] edbian, alright, just checking. I'm almost done typing the lcpsi [00:02] really, whenever i need to do something besides listen to music, and read email i need to learn exactly how a microchip works and how to do something [00:02] Hey I get it. no one knows about webcams. It's just that I had a mild preference to get help. So I'll try again later. [00:03] well nvm guys i installed gnome alsa mixer and it fixed my headphone issue [00:03] tortoise, I must admit it should not take this long to read :) [00:03] edbian, ...I thought you wanted it in pastebin? [00:03] exit [00:03] opps [00:03] tortoise, I'd be happy to read it. [00:03] can anyone tell my why when i plug my headphones in they are automatically muted and i have to unmute them in alsa mixer ? [00:03] tortoise, I didn't realize that was what you were doing! I'd forgotten. I promise not to waste your time like that again [00:04] edbian: computer scientist, that's awesome. I lack the patience specifically when dealing with computers. I love working with mechanical stuff though. I'm about to go to school to be a mechanic for cars [00:04] edbian, lol it's alright! I'll read through it, what exactly am I looking for though? [00:04] is there a new processess for ssh key login? [00:04] Good night all :) [00:04] niteshade, :) Awesome [00:04] @Devilz_108 god night:) [00:04] tortoise, You're looking for the drivers / modules associated with your radeon card. [00:05] @niteshade that's freaking sweet! [00:05] and i pray to god that i don't ever have to mess with computer modules inside the car [00:05] under 10.10, ALT-PrintScreen for taking a screenshot of the current window no longer does anything... bug or deliberate? [00:05] *i meant good night:D [00:05] niteshade, Cars have computers in them too :) [00:05] @niteshade hahahaha [00:05] i know. And, i curse that industry decision [00:06] hello? [00:06] anyone know how i can mount a virtual hard drive file in linux? [00:06] i just wanna work on stuff and fix stuff without dealing with computers [00:06] @Dwade09 w8 if i can find a solution googling it [00:06] in case of course you haven't already tried that [00:07] macossex, i too am googling , but im coming up with dead ends. [00:07] i will probably just want to work with old diesels [00:07] and old cars [00:07] before they had computers [00:07] @Dwade09 who knows?i might find something [00:08] im sorry macossex its just every since yesterday its been one thing after another seems to never end [00:08] edbian, alright, the only thing I see with radeon is this line: "01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS690M [Radeon X1200 Series]" And the Kernel driver in use is radeon, and the Kernel modules is radeon [00:08] rinku_kokiri: a hard drive image file... you probably need to use a loop mount something like mount filename /path/to/mount -o loop [00:08] http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-237307.html [00:08] tortoise, mmm, I was afraid of that. [00:08] have you found that already? [00:08] tortoise, You did good job. That's exactly what I was looking to know. [00:08] it's just that whenever i have to igure out something with my computer, either i give up, or wind up destroying my computer with a hammer at the end [00:08] i didn't read it [00:09] out of frustration [00:09] edbian, thank you. So, what exactly does this mean? [00:09] tortoise, There are a couple drivers for your card. fglrx (proprietary, made by ati). radeon (open source), and vesa (open source fall back driver) [00:09] tortoise, According to that output you're using radeon. This usually is the best choice. [00:09] macossex, yes, and its not really the same, i plgu the headphones in they are muted i have to unmute them, but hwen i unplug them my speakers work fine. [00:10] The device '/dev/loop0' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS. [00:10] i also can't sit in front of a computer for too long without getting pissed of [00:10] * of [00:10] * off [00:10] its just my headphones seem to be auto muted its the front row speaker macossex [00:10] tortoise, Look in the output of dmesg. Do you see anything regarding your card in there? [00:10] @Dwade09 i've never heard of this [00:10] tortoise, Look near the end [00:10] it's why none of my laptops or computers last very long [00:10] @does it happen just on Ubuntu? [00:11] eh? [00:11] macossex, i have volume control and gnome alsa mixer up, in alsa mixer its showing muted on the front, and in volume control it shows the same. [00:11] How can I run a program from my terminal that will remain active even after I close my terminal? [00:11] hey everyone, I want to connect to my samba from a xp, I can connect just fine with firefox but when I use windows explorer, he asks for a password and a username. Another howto told me just fill in something but that doesn't work [00:11] macossex, yes, when i ahd windows it was fine somewhat lol [00:11] rypervenche: & [00:11] edbian, I'm not seeing dmesg anywhere near the end. What else should be near it? [00:11] niteshade: rack ur brain on this http://perfmon2.sourceforge.net/pfmon_intel_core.html [00:11] rypervenche, By ending the command with a & (i.e. firefox&) [00:11] drivers still dont work :'( [00:11] @Dwade09 w8 to see if there's an automute option [00:12] rypervenche: program_name & [00:12] tortoise, No, run dmesg. It's a command. Look a the end of dmesg for something related to the card. [00:12] My MIDI drums sound like a piano. [00:12] edbian, oohhh okay. [00:12] i been looking macossex i was about to lay down when this problem popped up [00:12] drivers are the achilles heal of ubuntu it seeems [00:12] Please help. [00:12] tortoise, yeah [00:12] Leijon7: You'd be surprised. [00:13] the ironic part is that i used to love this stuff... [00:13] now it brings me nothing but pain [00:13] edbian, At the end I get, "radeon 0000:01:05.0: HDMI Type A-1: EDID invalid. [00:13] oops, that's not all...one second lol [00:13] edbian: when I close my terminal it closes my program as well [00:13] @Dwade09 sorry to hear that. the problem is that i'm using the live cd so I can't fully test it [00:13] tortoise, Don't post a ton of stuff here. [00:13] rypervenche, did you type a & [00:14] i mean i don't have songs or something like that on my computer [00:14] can soemeone help me install libreoffice? [00:14] edbian, it's only two lines [00:14] tortoise, k [00:14] mindvirus; suprised positive or negative? [00:14] @manuel why? you don't like openoffice? just curious [00:14] edbian: I did. It allows me to do other things with the terminal, but once I close the terminal, the program closes as well. [00:15] @ macossex can you maybe try with youtube? [00:15] edbian, "radeon 0000:01:05.0: HDMI Type A-1: EDID invalid. [drm:radeon_dvi_detect] *ERROR* HDMI Type A-1: probed a monitor but no|invalid EDID === _donvito is now known as nertil [00:15] @macossex why cant they just have it in the software center, i dont understand this rpm business [00:15] Salut, salut [00:15] is there anyway to get the 64 bit deb of the startup disk creator? [00:15] manuel_: what? Ubuntu doesn't use RPM [00:15] tortoise, The system doesn't like your monitor for some reason. Do you have a weird monitor? [00:16] darkkrai: packages.ubuntu.com [00:16] @Dwade09 i'll try [00:16] edbian, nope. It's a laptop, same monitor that has been on there forever. [00:16] i'm hoping to become an expert in all things fast. Once i'm through with school, i'll get a job at a napa and go back to school to be a jet mechanic [00:16] @manuel what distro are you using? [00:16] manuel_: Ubuntu currently has OpenOffice.org in the repositories. the next version, though, will have LibreOffice. [00:16] darkkrai: or you can use apt-get to only download the deb to /var/cache/apt/archives [00:16] @ macossex you do not have to i was just wondering. [00:16] brb [00:16] macossex: most likely ubuntu [00:16] Can any body please tell me how to autologin to tty1 on startup. I followed this howto: http://linuxtree.blogspot.com/2010/01/enable-automatic-login-in-ubuntu-910.html but my pc does not switch to a tty on startup [00:17] @Dwade09 i know i don't have to. i want to [00:17] tortoise, I'm not sure then. Sounds like something is wrong with the way the driver is written. [00:17] it just displays a flashing cursor until I press ntr+alt+F1 [00:17] ubuntu 10.10 [00:17] edbian, that's really strange...I haven't changed anything about it since I started using ubuntu [00:17] @actionParsnip yeah but he mentioned the rpms so i had to ask:) [00:17] tortoise, Did you update to 10.10 and then have this problem? [00:18] macossex: makes sense, use tab to complete nicks dude ;) [00:18] edbian, I haven't updated to 10.10 at all. Unless ubuntu updates automatically. [00:18] rypervenche: & [00:18] tortoise, cat /etc/debian_version [00:18] @manuel you want libreoffice or you'd be satisfied with openoffice as well? [00:18] (and drop the @ which is not really needed or useful) [00:18] rypervenche: did you see my response earlier? [00:18] @ActionParsnip hehe thanks [00:18] edbian, squeeze/sid [00:18] thank you macossex [00:19] rypervenche: put an ampersand after the command [00:19] macossex: if you drop the @ then the text will highlight,just like text intended for you does [00:19] i already have openoffice, but i wanted to try out libreoffice [00:19] macossex: it makes the nick not highlight [00:19] tortoise, Ha, that's not related. What version is listed in system-monitor? [00:19] ActionParsnip, wow now i get it [00:19] manuel_: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/10/install-libreoffice-ppa-ubuntu/ [00:19] :D [00:19] My MIDI drumset sounds like a piano. Can anyone help? [00:20] edbian, How do I get to system-monitor without gui? [00:20] tortoise, Oh. Didn't realize you were only cli. [00:20] tortoise, You can't :) [00:20] edbian, oh. Yeah, I am. [00:20] MindVirus: Don't hit it :P [00:20] Sorry [00:20] Dwade09, i'm installing flash to watch videos on youtube so don't leave yet [00:20] thanks actionarpsnip [00:20] As far as I know, Ubuntu chooses to use the wired connection instead of wireless if present, right? [00:20] Does anyone know why it's not making drum sounds? [00:20] not going anywhere macossex although i really wana sleep but i wana get this fixed first [00:20] tortoise, It doesn't matter. You would have rememberd the upgrade. And it doesn't happen automatically. [00:20] shawnboy: if the wired is connected then yes [00:21] Dwade09, haha been there! [00:21] shawnboy: NB. You cannot connect 2 interfaces to the same router without getting issues [00:21] edbian, in that case, I am still using 10.04 [00:21] I made a shell script to killall ibus-daemon then start a game. I want to automatically restart ibus-daemon once the game finishes. Without "&" the terminal window stays there, with "&" it does not keep ibus-daemon open. How can I fix this? [00:22] ActionParsnip: ok, here's my prob then... Ubuntu A is connected to Ubuntu B with wire, no internet. Computer A is also connected wifi to internet. See my prob? [00:22] Dwade09, don't get your hopes up though. I might not be able to help. i don't wanna be yet another disappointment to you [00:22] tortoise, I'm not sure what the problem is. All I can say is that the system is giving cryptic errors about your monitor. Ask in #radeon. They are very knowledgeable (but a bit rude so be nice) [00:22] macossex, i have i have via vt1708s sound card [00:22] shawnboy: can A ping 8.8.8.8? [00:22] I need Ubuntu A to access files on Ubuntu B AND have internet access via wifi simultaneously. [00:23] ActionParsnip: well, it's not connected at this moment, so I can't answer that right now. tried it earlier tonight. [00:23] Dwade09, thanks even though i'm a noob when it comes to hardware [00:23] edbian, thank you for your help. I'll go see if I can't figure it out in that channel [00:23] ciao [00:23] tortoise, I'll come with [00:23] in theory, ActionParsnip, can you envision way to do that? [00:23] ActionParsnips, i think the webpage you gave me for Libre is missing a command [00:23] figured it might have helped some lol and your welcome macossex [00:23] shawnboy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing [00:24] and thank you macossex for helping [00:24] shawnboy: the network between the 2 PCs needs to be a different subnet to the wireless side [00:24] Dwade09, don't mention it [00:24] macossex, if it helps im in 10.10 64bit [00:24] IS there any way to make Microsoft Office work on ubuntu lol [00:24] ActionParsnip: I'll read that link and I can make them dif subnets no prob. Thank you. === Deathspawn is now known as Spiderman [00:25] yo === Spiderman is now known as Spiderwiderman [00:25] ActionParsnip: really quickly... any magic with gateway setting I need to be sure of? let's say wifi is DHCP, but should I leave wired as static and no gateway? [00:25] SDLFJDSEWLRN [00:25] not getting any trick-or-treaters [00:26] WHY [00:26] ok sorry [00:26] hi, I need to see the process list and the creator of each user, any idea? command line [00:26] i'm slightly buzzed and trying to install ubuntu for the third time. [00:26] i got tons of candy for myself now [00:26] but it's screwing up when trying to mess with partitions [00:26] *creator of each process [00:26] i HAVE to have dead sectors on my harddrive. [00:26] BTW, Happy Reformation Day everyone. [00:26] edbian: did you see my problem? (can't repost, on iPhone) [00:26] Dwade09, i don't think it's a software issue. I mean there's not aproblem with a codec or smth like that [00:26] it's GOT to be that. [00:26] niteshade, lucky! [00:26] yah [00:27] i'm guessing it needs some tweaking but when the flash downloads i'll try it [00:27] rypervenche, About the app closing when you close the panel? [00:27] Anybody there who knows how to extract/execute/etc... .pck archives? [00:27] um. [00:27] sorry it takes so much time but like i said i'm using the live cd and my internet connection is busy with something else [00:28] edbian: yeah, I posted a rather long description about it. [00:28] it's just stuck on the downloading process [00:28] rypervenche, use disown [00:28] edbian, what's a computer scientist? [00:28] Is it normal for something to connect to ME from THEIR port 80?

[00:30] Dwade09, i'm searching the forums and it seems everyone's had the exact opposite problem [00:30] My 10.10 cannot use vga to my Hi-def Sony TV. Solutions suggest I check the xorg.conf, but I can't find one.

[00:31] Anyone... please i beg for a little help hehe :( [00:31] ActionParsnip: where should I place the file, or is there an autoconfigure? [00:31] i'm already a tradesman without being a mechanic first tho [00:31] I need MIDI. Can someone help? [00:31] Um_cara_qualquer, We don't even know what ur problem is!

[00:32] i create bongs with expertise [00:32] Dwade09, when you plug your speakers in your laptop instead of the speakers does the problem go away/ [00:32] aka "waater pipes" [00:33] so no way to tell what the power consumed by a usb device is? [00:33] macossex, i do not have other speakers i just have system built in speakers [00:33] edbian, and I already searched the entire google on it X_X [00:33] the entire google [00:33] macossex, if you like to carry this chat in pm if itd be easier for you that is fine with me.

[00:41] how [00:41] "both", all :) [00:41] rammyIRC, dunno, only ever used it for standard IMs, never tried anything else on it [00:41] VirtualBox server does [00:41] Um_cara_qualquer: in a terminal type: unzip filename obviously change filename for the file (with path) you want to extract) [00:41] hmm [00:41] sarthor: if yuo quit messing with root prompts, you'll have fewer issues [00:41] it does allow me to keep msn, yahoo and aim al together in a single window [00:42] sarthor: just use sudo and gksudo and you will have no issues like this ever [00:42] demi:im currently using empathy [00:42] demi: but i cant use it for webcam and stuffs [00:42] ActionParsnip, OK. i will do like as you suggest, Thanks bro. [00:43] 100200 [00:43] rammyIRC, I am fairly sure that yahoo messenger runs on flash so it can be a pain on lower powered boxes [00:43] same sort of idea then rammyIRC as i say, cant vouch for pidgin being any better === administrator is now known as Guest3341 [00:44] demi:i understand [00:45] Hi, I've got two machines that are publicly accessible to the internet, one is a VNC server, the other is (among other things) an SSH server. Only problem is that the VNC server isn't working over a WAN connection (probably due to firewall rules, outside of my control). How can I use the SSH server to tunnel the incoming VNC connection to the VNC server? [00:46] !vnc | phuzion [00:46] phuzion: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX [00:46] how can I change my default resolution from 800x600 to 1152.864 [00:47] phuzion: there may be a more graceful method to achieve your goal, what do you do when you connect via VNC? [00:47] pjsingh5000: everytime i click on the pastebin link i get the launchpad sign in window [00:47] anyways, about my controller problem: It works in torcs, but not in nexuiz. This leaves me thinking that it's nexuiz's fault. But, there's no controller config options in nexuiz. [00:48] that's the main prob [00:48] If I'm planning to use a DSL modem (with 802.11n), but instead use PPPOE from an ubuntu box to make multiple DSL connections: 1) Any restrictions on what the modems needs to have 2) Will wireless clients be able to connect via wireless -> routed via the ubuntu box -> internet? [00:49] Stevethepirate: yes you can setup an ubuntu box as a wireless router [00:49] ActionParsnip, I tried to extract it 4 times in 4 diferent directories... the terminal still says that it cant find the file o_O [00:49] nueb here: Is there anyone who can help me to configure samba to be used as a domain? [00:49] how can I change my default resolution from 800x600 to 1152.864 [00:49] Um_cara_qualquer: use cd to (c)hange (d)irectory to the one containing the file. If you run: ls (spoken: ell-ess), you should see the file, then you can ignore the path part of the filename [00:50] ActionParsnip: The problem is the DSL Modem will be working as both a wireless router and as for PPPOE. [00:51] Stevethepirate: the ubuntu box will establish the PPOE on one interface with the modem, the use a different interface to share the connection out [00:51] ActionParsnip: The VNC Server is a windows machine, the SSH server is a linux box. I use it to control a program that is Windows only :( When I would connect to the VNC server, I have to be on the LAN in order to connect to it, but having remote access would be ideal. [00:51] can anyone help? [00:51] So I need 2 network cards on the ubuntu box? Or 2 pseudo interfaces? [00:51] phuzion: you can use RDP to windows and it is secure, VNC is not secure in anyway [00:52] ActionParsnip: that [00:52] is blocked [00:52] How do I set Ubuntu to use ALSA instead of PulseAudio by default? I just reinstalled, and my last install had a System Audio Selector (or something) in which I could change it. [00:52] Stevethepirate: either is fine, if you want decent speed then 2 physical devices is ideal [00:53] anyone here happen to be a filesystems whiz? [00:53] ActionParsnip: I'm in .za, DSL speeds are like 4mbit or 10mbit max :( [00:53] what's the site to put big messages to avoid flood? [00:53] ActionParsnip: you could point me at some relevant literature for PPPOE? Does it connect via normal eth to one of the routers ports? [00:54] pastebin I think, Um_cara_qualquer [00:54] !ppoe [00:54] !PPPOE [00:54] Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE [00:54] Ty. [00:54] :P [00:54] !adsl | Stevethepirate [00:54] Stevethepirate: please see above [00:54] Ye, saw. http://www.take2.co.za/electronics-trendnet-300mbps-wireless-n-adsl2-2-modem-router-4311963.html <-- Does this look ok? [00:54] n00bnix, thx [00:55] Stevethepirate: sure, it'll be cheaper to run too as your PC uses a lot of power compared to a home grade router [00:55] Stevethepirate: unless your pc is on 24/7 [00:55] Hi all, sorry that this is slightly off topic but, when recieving an email from a blackberry, how exactly does the "sent via blackberry" appear ( aesthetically speaking ) ? I mean appearence wise is there a "--" above it or anything? === juro is now known as Guest52651 [00:55] ActionParsnip: Oh, so you saying I don't even need a DSL router? [00:55] ActionParsnip, check this out [00:55] http://paste.ubuntu.com/523580/ === Grub is now known as geitenneuker [00:56] Stevethepirate: if you setup the sharing of the connection, your PC will be a router [00:56] so, who wants to help me recover an ext4 filesystem that mount can't mount (freezes doing something called "get_super") and e2fsck won't check? (insists the device is busy or already mounted, which it isn't) [00:56] Yes, but the DSL modem is acting as a router right? Converting DSL -> eth. [00:57] Um_cara_qualquer: ok so its not a zip file, what is the output of: file sound.pck [00:57] n00bnix, just a thought, dd if=/dev/brokenDrive of=/path/to/some/folder [00:57] Stevethepirate: a modem id a modem, a router with a modem is a modem/router [00:57] I tried forcing e2fsck to use one of the backup superblocks after doing an e2fsdump but it still insists the device is busy when it's not [00:57] Stevethepirate: if you have a modem/router you can buy a cheap ethernet switch and share the connection that way [00:57] edbian: it's a 996 GB filesystem, and the one and only physical hard drive :P [00:58] n00bnix, wow, good luck with that [00:58] ActionParsnip: Oh ok. I'm now up to speed. Ye, I have 2x 24 port 3com switches. [00:58] (the remaining 4 GB of the drive had been set up as the swap, but I deleted the swap because I thought that may have been making e2fsck think the drive was busy) [00:58] ActionParsnip, what do you mean? I'm not an expert but I thought pck was the output [00:58] any recommendations for screencasting software on ubuntu/*nix ? === io is now known as Guest90967 [00:58] I'm using GNOME (if it matters) [00:58] !screencast | abstrakt [00:58] abstrakt: Some programs to capture your screen are recordmydesktop, Istanbul, Wink, Xvidcap, pyvnc2swf. Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts. === Spiderwiderman is now known as Deathspawn [00:59] Pici, sweet, thanks :) [00:59] Um_cara_qualquer: its a command, I gave a command, copy and paste the comamnd and run it, a non-expert can do that [00:59] abstrakt: np [00:59] Um_cara_qualquer: http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=4508&p=40250 [00:59] abstrakt: recordmydesktop [00:59] hi all [00:59] man, I was just gonna change my nick to Deathspawn... [00:59] the funny thing is, when I boot off that hard drive, GRUB can see the files on it still... I just end up having a busybox terminal because it can't mount the /dev/sda2 filesystem [00:59] ActionParsnip, so is that your preferred screen casting software on *nix? [00:59] i have a problem [01:00] CrimsonIdol: And then you would have gotten ghosted. :) [01:00] abstrakt: i dont use one, its one I know about. why do you want one that#s "preferred" by a total stranger? Why not try a few and see which you preffer? [01:00] hi everyone [01:00] i connect my pc with ubuntu to my tv [01:00] Spy_o: ask away [01:01] i connect my pc with ubuntu to my tv [01:01] hi ludwin [01:01] n00bnix, "because it can't mount" << "it" is it. sounds too clear to me.. sounds like an "it' problem. [01:01] and i have problem with resize [01:01] so of course, I tried the obvious stuff... booted off a live USB and tried the e2fsck, which won't touch the partition, and mount just freezes doing the "get_super", so I think it's because of the superblock being corrupt, and I could fix that from one of the backup ones, if only e2fsck would run [01:01] how can i rotate ubuntu desktop or resize [01:02] Spy_o: try usin xrander on that display to change the size [01:02] gogetal i try it [01:02] n00bnix, if you can speak in english it would make more sense. using the word "it" has no meaning. [01:02] but the smaller size 640x480 i need smaller [01:03] Spy_o, 640x480 is like the 1990's.. [01:03] yagoo: if you can speak hebrew, it would make no sense to boil a chicken without water. [01:03] "it" in that last context means "the error in question", ie. not being able to mount or even fsck.ext4 the partition [01:03] Spy_o: 640x480 ia naativ tv rez [01:03] its 1990s tv [01:03] Spy_o: you can only go to up 800x600 using overscan [01:04] hello [01:04] gogeta1: crap native is 480x something [01:04] Sounds like you guys are talking resolution. I'm having a problem getting a netbook to support a hi-res second monitor [01:04] Spy_o: you havent configured your video chip, if you run: sudo lshw -C display and use the product line, you can find guides [01:04] ActionParsnip, sound.pck: data [01:04] n00bnix, so basically you're wondering if there's a problem with the filesystem. simple enough.. run an e2fsck with a live booted cd.. [01:04] Spy_o: 640x480 is as small as it gets [01:04] n00bnix, you don't need to mount to use e2fsck. [01:04] Um_cara_qualquer: thought so, kinda hoped it would see what it was [01:04] ActionParsnip, hmm and what it means? [01:04] geitenneuker: 480p is max for a sd tv [01:04] moongose [01:04] ActionParsnip: qq, when doing pppoe; even though the device is connected via ethernet to the modem/router; how does it know the correct IP, etc for the modem/router? [01:05] yagoo: I've TRIED that! e2fsck will not run on the partition. e2fsck tells me the device is busy or the partition is mounted. The device is not busy, and the partition is not mounted when I tried to run the e2fsck. [01:05] geirha: you can emulate higher rez via overscan but it will look crappy [01:05] gogetal how can i do oversize? [01:06] Spy_o: been a long time i forgot how to enable overscan to give you a higher rez but rember it will lost alot of qualty [01:06] ActionParsnip, sorry about my english... it's been a while [01:07] * yagoo fsck.ext4 [01:07] Strangely, GRUB can see the files on the drive when I ls the root, (hd0,msdos2) and GRUB loads the kernel and initrd.lz and then the system boots into a busybox shell because /dev/sda2 cannot be mounted. [01:07] Spy_o: check your videos card controle panel and look for overscan [01:07] n00bnix, did u use another partitioning tool mix? [01:08] i dont have control panel for my video card [01:08] i have intel [01:08] Spy_o: of even the second duisplay propterys [01:08] n00bnix, you sure dracula didn't bite your neck tonight? [01:08] 82815 Chipset Graphics Controller (CGC) [01:09] yagoo: I'm not sure what you mean? I've just downloaded a copy of PMagic 5.7 though and I'm going to try some of the tools on that. [01:09] n00bnix, no. [01:09] Spy_o: if your using s-video you are limitid to 480p [01:09] n00bnix, use gparted live cd.. and try moving the start of the partition like 1 meg down [01:09] i use rca [01:09] how can I change my resolution past 1024 x 768? I had it really high in windows 7. [01:09] The partition was created with Gparted from the Ubuntu 10.10 [01:09] n00bnix, that'll set the proper offsets grub is able to work with [01:09] Spy_o: http://threeeighthsspacer.com/blog/2009/09/08/dell-inspiron-2500-with-intel-82815-graphics-xorgconf-for-1024x768/ [01:10] Spy_o: ? a vga box? [01:10] yes [01:10] jigrscr0608: run: sudo lshw -C display use the product line to find guides [01:10] n00bnix, i'm guessing you didn't pay attention when you toying around with gparted... you may have wiped out that partition [01:10] yagoo: GRUB doesn't have a problem with the filesystem, only linux's mount and fsck.ext4 commands do. Also, I cannot resize the partition in Gparted, I have already tried to shrink it so I could create another to recover it to, using the dd method. [01:11] n00bnix, partedmagic is ok.. thought u were referring to the commercial partitionmagic [01:11] Spy_o: if your using s-vdeio to the tv your limited to 640x480 you need to use a vga rgb box to use overscan [01:11] limits of s-video [01:11] n00bnix, besides gparted what other partition tool was used on this drive? [01:12] n00bnix, you sould only stick with one of course [01:12] yagoo: No others were used [01:12] Spy_o: if your using some sort of dvi to standerd tv conversion you should be able to emulate hd rez [01:12] n00bnix, are you telling me you did a resize on an ext4 filesystem? [01:12] I have a g84 geforce 8600 gt [01:12] so. live ubuntu works. live fedora works. locks up on formating partitions for linux. bad harddrive FTW [01:13] yagoo: No, because Gparted will not resize it without running e2fsck first. [01:13] jigrscr0608, i have that too.. it works.. [01:13] And e2fsck will not run on the partition [01:13] !nvidia | jigrscr0608 [01:13] jigrscr0608: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [01:13] is there a known issue with printing files with transparent things in it? [01:13] n00bnix, so bootup with hardware diagnosis cd.. and see if it can sector test the whole drive.. [01:13] I have a 20" crt that I guess it doesn't recognize. any ideas [01:13] oliver602: If there is, I don't know about it. [01:14] yagoo: What tool(s) would you suggest for that? I would want to use something that will do a read-only test, and I think it would take a very long time on a 1TB drive. [01:14] just di some basic shapes in inkscape. printed fine. added drop shadows, printing takes forever, gs is taking 100% cpu [01:15] n00bnix, yeah.. it'll take some time.. [01:15] i rather to use a old dos programm called interleave for your harddisk [01:15] n00bnix, theres sysrescuecd and ultimatebootcd .. [01:15] jigrscr0608: if you haven't installed the driver it won't fire on all cylinders [01:15] n00bnix, and of course hiren cd [01:15] Has anyone noticed that gnome-shell takes a hell of a long time to compile [01:15] hmmm [01:15] CanadianPirate: there are repos for it [01:16] CanadianPirate: GNOME might not be responsible for how bad GNOME is now... The X.org server is weird at the moment [01:16] CanadianPirate: http://joneslee85.wordpress.com/2010/06/06/howto-install-gnome-shell-on-ubuntu-maverick-10-10/ [01:16] CanadianPirate: so compiling it is really a fruitless excercise as smoeone has already done it [01:17] n00bnix, oO what's wrong with x.org ? [01:17] ActionParsnip: Maybe he's using a different cpu architecture? [01:17] n00bnix: if s/he hasi686 or amd64 if will work [01:17] yagoo: I'm not sure, but for a start, they broke compatibility with the nvidia-96 drivers package [01:17] Spy_o: only way to get a higer rez on s standerd tv is using a vga to rgb converter box. mind you it will look shotty [01:18] n00bnix, nvidia has to update their sources.. that's no x's fault.. [01:18] ActionParsnip I am compiling the newest one, 3.91.1 I think is the version. I could not find a repo for it. [01:18] D:< [01:18] ARGGGGH eh. [01:18] i must buy a vga to rgb box? [01:18] oi vey. [01:18] yagoo: It might be, depending on what X.org did to break compatibility :P [01:18] gogetal i must buy a vga to rgb box? [01:18] Spy_o: if you whant to go past the limits of s-video [01:19] hia there gogeta1 [01:19] but we'll never know for sure, unless NVidia open-source their drivers [01:19] Spy_o: but at the point it would be better to ge a hd tv with dvi [01:19] why is it ubuntu can get on my wireless network fine, but fedora is all ELWJHNBFDSLKEJR [01:19] n00bnix, that still doesn't convince me x.org is weird.. [01:19] Spy_o: or hdmi if you video card supports it [01:20] Spy_o: converting past 680x480 on a stander tv = hard to read text fuzzy display [01:20] Is anyone here using Utouch? [01:20] Spy_o: there not built to display past that [01:20] gogetal thanks a lot i trying 7 hours now [01:21] I've had a lot of problems with ubuntu 10.10 that I never had with previous versions. I suspect the causes to be changes in the kernel with regards to ext4 filesystems, changes in X.org server making my display drivers not work, and changes to Gnome. I never had problems with 6.06 LTS [01:21] i try to oversize [01:21] or 8.04, or 9.04, or even 10.04 [01:21] Spy_o: you can overscan with s-video only with rgb conversion [01:21] cant [01:21] i forgot my usual IRC chat name, the one i registered. how can i have the email resent with my IRC chat name [01:22] n00bnix, you seem to be pretty jumped about what the problem is.. Run the hardware sector test first.. then come back and see how others can help.. [01:22] Can someone show me how I can use the rc.local? Trying to make my apache server start on it's own, but I'm having no luck with getting that to luck. (And solutions I got from google were pretty much no good). [01:22] i can not overscan with rca? [01:22] Spy_o: is it a vga to rca converter box [01:23] is rca to rca [01:23] Ibyss: just add the command you would run as root above the exit 0 line and suffix ithe command with an ampersand character [01:23] i have a iptv pc that i have hacked it and i installing ubuntu inside [01:23] Spy_o: do you mean s-video to rca [01:24] no rca to rca [01:24] yagoo: I'm going to try out the tools on the Pmagic liveCD once I turn it into a bootable USB with syslinux, and if I have no luck with that, I'm going to give up and reformat the drive with GUID instead of MBR or something, and most likely switch from Ubuntu to gNewSense as a base and then install whatever else I need on top of that. [01:24] Spy_o: its probly a s-video to rcca conversion done internerly [01:24] is mini pc for home cinema [01:24] Spy_o: you should be able to go to 800x600 [01:25] Spy_o: you may have to add the rez mode manuly to the xorg.conf === WiW is now known as WiWafk [01:25] gogetal yes i do that [01:25] but at 800x600 [01:25] Spy_o: then in a term type xrander [01:25] yes [01:25] the drive better not be dead or dying, it's barely 6 months old. Then again, I had a seagate 1.5 TB drive die after 2 months recently, so maybe drive manufacturers are getting sloppy these days. Seagate used to be good. [01:25] Spy_o: did it go to 600x600 [01:25] 800 [01:26] s-video to rca: http://www.richieri.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/s-video-rca.jpg [01:26] the 1TB I'm using at the moment is WD though [01:26] if I have a ssh key for machine a to access machine b, and i want to use the same key that I use for machine on machine c (to connect from c to b), what do I need to do to "transfer" this key between a and c so that it will work on b ? [01:26] I'll be right back. [01:26] n00bnix, don't buy oem.. they're cheap.. [01:27] Spy_o: or try giving crander the mode xrander 800x600 [01:27] xrander [01:27] I don't know, I wanted something like a Quantum, they were always good, but I can't even find anywhere selling them. Are Quantum even still in business? [01:28] n00bnix: grab seagate 7200.12 and you are gold [01:28] gogetal xrandr? [01:28] Spy_o: yea [01:29] ActionParsnip: I swore I would never buy anything from Seagate again after the 1.5TB drive died within 2 months. [01:29] [01:29] n00bnix: they would have replaced that for free [01:29] Thanks ActionParsnip, it worked. :D [01:29] n00bnix, i refuse to buy new technology due to events like this.. I avoid any TB drives.. maximum i go is 500gb.. [01:30] gogetal what must i do now [01:30] hmm my server is running with a 8 year old seagate hd [01:30] n00bnix: they warrenty them for 5 years [01:30] ? [01:30] n00bnix: was this a 7200 RPM drive or the 5900? [01:30] realcooluser: 7200 [01:30] Spy_o: well if it switched to 800x600 not a thing [01:30] ok so I want to install Adobe AIR 2.5 and Package Manager refuses to install because I'm x86_64 and it's an i386 package. What do I do to work around? [01:30] n00bnix: I remember hearing about all sorts of issues with the 7200. I think they finally got them sorted out, but I own 4 of the 5900 rpm, 0 issue, 0 bad sector :) [01:30] Lol, TB harddrives are just crazy. [01:31] n00bnix: what model was it? [01:31] Does anyone here know a ppa for gnome-shell 2.91 [01:31] Spy_o: ubuntu uses auto configs for x if its not letting you use the hire rez you may have to genrate a xorg.conf to override the auto settings to add the rez by hand [01:31] hold on, I'll dig up the model number [01:31] gogetal i do it [01:32] Sir_Konrad: you can install i32-libs [01:32] Sir_Konrad: and install 32bit packages [01:32] (ia32-libs) [01:32] gogetal i have to put the rez in screen section? [01:32] Spy_o: with the other rez modes yes [01:32] If you enable java tracing and logging where are the files stored? [01:32] ActionParsnip, if I install the ia32-libs then Package Manager will happily handle them? [01:32] Sir_Konrad: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/408/kb408084.html [01:32] Sir_Konrad: a quick bingsearch brought up that [01:32] Spy_o: you will to restart x for it to take efect [01:33] ActionParsnip, thanks. :) [01:33] Spy_o: then you should be able to use xrandr to change it [01:33] ActionParsnip, bing is microsoft's search engine... google.com/linux is way better [01:33] yagoo: yes.. [01:33] i do a reboot [01:34] yagoo: they are equal, i use both google and bing [01:34] i have been connecting to this machine via ssh and vnc [01:34] yagoo: if one was outright better, nobody would use the other and it would soon wither and die [01:34] ActionParsnip: it was the ST31500341AS [01:34] Ewwww @ bing. I only use google. xD [01:35] ActionParsnip, well google is behind help opensource and hosting googlesummer projects.. they(google) are really helping the oss community.. microsoft isn't. :p [01:35] Ibyss: you are missing out, different search methods yield different results [01:35] lol, they're both evil. M$ *and* Google [01:35] right n00bnix [01:36] whats the proper way to set extra kernel args in grub for 10.10? there is no menu.lst on grub2 [01:36] Google are just slightly better at hiding it [01:36] yagoo: i dont care about that, i search with both to meet my ends [01:36] How to open visudo in nano [01:36] vdubhack: add them in /etc/default/grub in the quotes next to: quiet splash save the new file and run: sudo update-grub [01:37] !visudo | ray2 [01:37] ActionParsnip: Thanks :) [01:37] Ray2: i think you need to run: export EDITOR=nano [01:37] well, I'm outta here for now [01:38] gogetal i put rez in xorg.conf but with xrandr -q doesnt exists [01:38] so long and thanks for all the fish, good luck with your projects, etc. [01:38] good evening all [01:39] okay so i have dual booted windows xp and lubuntu 10.10 set up and after updating through the update manager i have suddenly lost the option to boot windows xp from grub [01:39] if I have a ssh key for machine a to access machine b, and i want to use the same key that I use for machine on machine c (to connect from c to b), what do I need to do to "transfer" this key between a and c so that it will work on b ? [01:40] ghostnik11: sounds like an upgrade to me [01:40] So I've got a friend that's trying to solve a 'kid needs a computer' problem. I'm suggesting Ubuntu on a free PC I have. I have 2 q's: 1. Is connection w/ an iPod 'stupid-proof' at this point, and 2. what internet filtering options are there on the install of Ubuntu (keeping porn etc. from being accessed) [01:40] Gosh, I wish there was a non-KDE version of Konversation. Lol. [01:40] Ibyss: but "Gonversation" sounds silly. [01:40] I'm also wondering if anyone in here has put 10.10 on a ~3GHz P4 era machine [01:40] using gnome-terminal, is it possible to have a background picture *without* transparency through to the windows/desktop behind? [01:41] SRoss: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPod [01:41] porjo I'm not sure what you're asking [01:41] n000nix: what do you mean, i am running lubuntu 10.10 [01:41] porjo: Yes, edit the profiles [01:41] ghostnik11: I was joking, implying that being unable to select Windows at the boot menu is better than being able to. [01:41] ActionParsnip: I had seen that, but was mainly wondering if there were many practical 'gotcha' issues...I don't have an iPod [01:42] ActionParsnip: thanks though [01:42] SRoss: me neither, they are garbage [01:42] n00bnix: yeah, I've played around with profile settings...but I must be missing the obvious :( [01:42] n00bnix: oh, lol well your right but the thing is i need to get into windows to run this program named power strip so i can get correct resolution settings as my computer won't let me get 1024x768 [01:43] ActionParsnip: any idea if 10.10 will choke on a 3GHz P4? I mostly use Ubuntu on the server side [01:43] where do i set environment variables for export into X and apps running under X? [01:43] SRoss: lucid and later are supposed to be super ipod friendly [01:43] ActionParsnip: sweet [01:43] SRoss: it'll fly, thats more CPU power than all my computers together [01:43] n00bnix: i am using a sony bravia 27 inch lcd and the gamma settings can't be found when i use xrandr [01:43] kermit: if you mean X forwarding then its default in openssh-server [01:44] SRoss: I use a 3GHZ P4, and it usually runs 10.10, when the filesystem isn't corrupted, or the system hanging because nvidia-96 doesn't work with the new X.org [01:44] no problems with 10.04 on 3ghz p4 so 10.10 might work fine too SRoss [01:44] great, well, now I need to burn a CD for this coworker and get KVM kicking on 10.04 [01:44] n00bnix: lol [01:44] SRoss: remember to MD5 test the ISO before burning, and burn slow [01:44] oh yeah, I've been there [01:44] ActionParsnip: no [01:44] connermcd: I'd like to have a background image visible behind the text in my terminal window. I've tried setting a background image, however it is only visible when I increase transparency and that has the side-effect of showing windows beneath the terminal (which I don't want) [01:44] * n00bnix sighs [01:45] it was horrid back in the TurboLinux days....that 33.6k download took *forever* [01:45] SRoss: Yeah, if you were connected at 300 baud! [01:45] ghostnik11: did you get your windows boot option back? [01:45] n00bnix, i think you're worst than a clueless newbie.. you keep insisting X isn't good, and that ubuntu is very corrupt.. however you point out about failed drives after 2 months and that this one may be corrupt as well.. If your HD is bad this isn't ubuntu's fault. [01:45] okay, Xubuntu is all set up on my customer's machine .......... just one issue for me - it doesn't turn itself off after shutdown [01:45] Is there a way to validate all the from-packages files on an Ubuntu system? Ie, to get a list of file hashes based on the packages one has installed, hash all the files on the system listed, and then compare them to make sure they're all the same? [01:46] LadySerena: that may be hardware dependent [01:46] Does anyone here know a ppa for gnome-shell 2.91 [01:46] pjsingh5000: nope reading up on editing grub menulist to get windows boot option back in forums right now [01:46] yagoo: What are the chances that 2 different drives, from different manufacturers, of different capacity, are dying for no apparent reason? :P [01:46] vmware is nothing but piece of a junk! it took me nearly half an hour to just finish the installation of CSOnline! [01:46] LadySerena: any clue on the hardware? I would search around on the forums for people w/ similar hardware and their ACPI stuff [01:46] it performed ACPI Power-Off with the gparted and dban CDs [01:46] Kuwanger: you could write a script to MD5 test every file on teh partition [01:46] ok another question: is a ssh key server-AND-client-machine-specific ? or can I use the same ssh key on another machine to connect to the same server [01:46] xuekan: CSOnline ?!? [01:47] Ubuntu uses grub2 now, and I only have experience wit hthe previous version of grub. [01:47] ActionParsnip: Yes, but how would I get a hash list for all files in all packages that are installed? [01:47] SRoss:yeah, a game. [01:47] xuekan: lol, you're running CS inside of a VM? [01:47] haha [01:47] that's just... awesome [01:47] hope you're using the latest release of workstation.... [01:48] no i was just installing it and it took me so much time. [01:48] ubottu: what is the URL with instructions to recover lost windows boot option in grub? [01:48] I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [01:48] xuekan: if you're not using vmware workstation, it will choke extremely horrid [01:48] all I know of this machine's hardware .... Intel Celeron 2.7GHz single-core, 236MB memory [01:48] porjo try this http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/08/27/transparent-terminal-on-your-desktop/ [01:48] Is there a way to copy all programs that I downloaded to a USB memory card, i am planning to re install Ubuntu, but i dont want to download ALL of the programs again from the net [01:48] connermcd: the problem is porjo doesn't want transparency [01:48] xuekan: and honestly, the GPU support in the latest WS release is from a practical standpoint experimental [01:48] SRoss:i am using vmware workstation. [01:49] n00bnix yes, I understand... seems like I recall it working that way without compiz [01:49] Licuadora, /var/cache/apt/archives/ [01:49] connermcd: I think you're right. [01:49] SRoss,totally have no idea why it is so slow when running this.but thank you all the same. [01:50] dli: So, can I just drag and drop? [01:50] xuekan: is your host *nix? [01:50] n00bnix so if you follow that guide... looks like it tells you to make a terminal profile with a certain name then escape that title type in window decorations [01:51] probably, but porjo needs to know this more than I [01:51] n00bnix porjo well I sent him the link [01:51] xuekan: the main performance inhibitor in WS vm's is usually a vmware tools issue [01:51] well, I'm going to go make another live USB and give my ext4 partition one last try at recovery. good luck to everyone [01:52] connermcd: thanks, I'll take a look at that (I am using Compiz) [01:52] pjsingh5000: i see grub.cfg file but when i check it i don't see a section with windows xp and i don't know what to enter to get the option back as i can manually edit it in leafpad [01:52] ghostnik11, can you run: sudo upgrade-grub [01:52] does ubuntu have any good games that use a game controller? (please don't tell me to browse the games list - looking for personal recommendations) [01:52] ghostnik11: would you pase your grub.cfg file ? [01:52] dli: will try that now [01:52] semitones, pacman [01:53] ghostnik11, sorry update-grub [01:53] oooh :) [01:53] thanks [01:53] * LadySerena likes the way the Xubuntu team made the Xfce desktop very similar to the Gnome desktops I'm used to. [01:53] * yagoo declares pacman the best game of all time and still is [01:54] waka waka waka waka [01:54] Ah, found what I was looking for I think in debsums. [01:54] semitones, you want arcade? maybe you want to look into mame [01:55] yagoo, ok. I used to use emulators, but this laptop isn't as fast as other computers :P [01:55] LadySerena, you using ipv6? [01:55] dli: here is what i got: http://paste.ubuntu.com/523597/ [01:55] on my iMac and my servers :D [01:55] semitones, mame is 1980's retro [01:55] pjsingh5000: here is what i got when i ran update grub: http://paste.ubuntu.com/523597/ [01:56] yagoo, any particular reason you ask? [01:56] LadySerena, that's cool.. looks like you have an advanced isp.. where's this ipv6 linking from, europe? [01:56] lawl [01:56] ghostnik11, so, it finds no windows [01:56] my ISP doesn't do IPv6 [01:56] ghostnik11: didn't find your Windows hugh? :( [01:56] LadySerena, cuse it's really not deployed here in n.america.. [01:56] pjsingh5000: i will have to get the screen shot app to take a pic of grub.cfg [01:56] yagoo, is it emulation, or are they native games? [01:56] ghostnik11: ok [01:56] ghostnik11, xpm/etc format [01:56] I have IPv6 through a tunnel broker, AT&T U-verse is way behind the times [01:57] semitones, emulation.. i believe you wanted to test your joystick.. this isn't really #ubuntu related.. [01:58] LadySerena, i'm guessing that's what your company uses [01:58] yagoa: xpm/etc format, what is that [01:58] Can someone help with drums on Timidity? [01:58] ghostnik11, whatever pic format grub supports.. [01:58] yagoa: i don't understand [01:59] ghostnik11, nmind i picked up the wrong cue about "pics".. nobody really does a picture of text.. it's simpler to copy&paste [01:59] ghostnik11: couldn't you just cut/paste your grub.cfg file ? [01:59] * yagoo (cat grub.cfg |xclip) then middle-mouse button to paste at the pastesite [01:59] yagoo, I was wondering if there were other good games on ubuntu that use nintendo-type usb controllers (like supertux maybe -- idk if it supports controllers) [02:00] yagoa: i was saying i need the application in ubuntu that does the take a screenshot of the desktop so i could send the pic to pastebin for you guys to see if you could help me fix grub [02:00] pjsingh5000: yeah i could do that if you want [02:00] !pastebinit | ghostnik11 [02:00] ghostnik11: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [02:00] ghostnik11, well u can use gksudo gedit /pathtogrubcfg .. then that would be easier to copy&paste [02:00] pjsingh5000: i thought the screenshot pic would be easier [02:01] MindVirus, really you should just use Hydrogen instead of timidity if you want drums [02:01] abstrakt: I tried using Hydrogen. [02:01] MindVirus, and? [02:01] It is not playing anything at all. [02:01] ghostnik11: just post yor grub contents; I don't think we need a picture, unless I'm missing something. Follow yagoo's suggestion. [02:01] It sees my MIDI input. [02:01] mindlesstux, do you understand what JACK is? [02:01] I even set my drums to match with what Hydrogen wants. [02:01] scrap [02:01] MindVirus, do you understand what JACK is? [02:02] Yes. [02:02] pjsingh5000: here you guys go sorry for complicating it, http://paste.ubuntu.com/523598/ [02:02] MindVirus, well Hydrogen uses JACK by default, I'm not sure if you can set it to use ALSA, probably, but really it was meant for JACK, so you need to start JACK first [02:02] Fine. [02:03] MindVirus, try just getting hydrogen to sequence some drum beats without using an external MIDI controller, just get the sounds to come out [02:03] MindVirus, hydrogen rocks, I use it quite often [02:03] abstrakt: I know Hydrogen, and I like it. [02:03] And it makes sounds. [02:03] But it doesn't match my hits to any of the drums. [02:03] ello [02:03] MindVirus, have you connected your MIDI controller (midi keyboard) to Hydrogen yet? [02:04] MindVirus, open up qjackctl, you don't actually need to start jack to route MIDI signals [02:04] anywho, who feels like answering a fun bootup question [02:04] abstrakt: I would assume so. The MIDI LED is blinking when I hit shit. [02:04] I want to boot to shell when i start up my server. [02:04] MindVirus, MIDI LED on what [02:04] abstrakt: Hydrogen. [02:04] problem is, i apt-get installed ubuntu-desktop [02:04] It says "MIDI-IN". [02:04] so it boots to gnome [02:04] i want to wget a file and unzip it in one line should i do unzip `wget http://foo/foo.zip` [02:04] NightDragon: thats default with the server install [02:04] i know its something you set in grub, does anyone remember what it is? [02:04] MindVirus, you sure your keyboard is on the right channel? [02:04] windows xp is located at /dev/sda1 when i check via disk utility [02:04] or something like wget http://foo/foo.zip | unzip [02:04] hey i have a multi function printer, i have the printer driver installed, but gscan2pdf doesnt see the scanner [02:04] abstrakt: 10. [02:04] abstrakt: It's not really a keyboard. [02:05] MindVirus, whatever, your controller [02:05] what do i have to do so applications can see the scanner [02:05] NightDragon: server doesnt ship with a DE so a terminal login is default [02:05] MindVirus, it should probably be channel 1, at least that's what I would do [02:05] pjsingh5000: it is located at /dev/sda1 when i check via disk utility === SRoss|T43 is now known as SRoss [02:05] abstrakt: Yes. What channel should it be on? AFAIK Hydrogen picks up from any channel. Channel 10 is default for drums in the General MIDI standard. [02:05] ActionParsnip: I ran 'apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' [02:05] You say 1? [02:05] when you do that, it automatically installs gnome and sets the system to boot into x11 [02:05] NightDragon: then why didn't you install the desktop environment if you wanted a desktop OS? [02:05] i dont remember how you disable this, but you can [02:05] MindVirus, yeah it should be able to be any channel probably, but I usually just stick to channel 1 unless I have some specific need [02:06] MindVirus, and hydrogen isn't exactly a "general midi" machine, not specifically anyway [02:06] i dont want a desktop OS, i want a server that can boot to GNOME if i need it to [02:06] when my system boot i do not see the kernel list to choose ,how i fix this ? [02:06] i want to wget a file and unzip it in one line should i do unzip `wget http://foo/foo.zip` [02:06] not desktop environment, desktop ISO [02:06] or something like wget http://foo/foo.zip | unzip [02:06] abstrakt: "General MIDI" is a specification. [02:06] MindVirus, so thinking about "what channel to be on for general midi drums" won't necessarily apply with hydrogen [02:06] OK. [02:06] so the question is -- how do i disable graphical boot in ubuntu? [02:06] NightDragon, disable gdm? [02:07] NightDragon, dpkg --reconfigure gdm maybe? [02:07] yes more or less... i know its something in bash [02:07] NightDragon, something like that probably [02:07] bonhoffer: you can use: cd ~; wget http://foo/bar.zip; unzip bar.zip [02:07] abstrakt: On channel 1, the MIDI-IN light is still blinking but still no drums are played. [02:07] NightDragon, maybe set your runlevel? although I think setting runlevels is outdated these days [02:07] NightDragon: add the boot option: text [02:07] ActionParsnip: o.k. so i type it on two lines still [02:07] MindVirus, well so then I would question whether the controller you're using is triggering the appropriate MIDI notes [02:07] bonhoffer: the guys in #bash may know something smoother [02:07] MindVirus, do you have a regular keyboard? I don't personally quite remember how to check what notes which drums are assigned to [02:08] abstrakt: Right! I don't know what notes, instruments, velocities, or channels I should use. [02:08] ActionParsnip: great point [02:08] MindVirus, but if your controller pads are triggering C4-C5 and hydrogen's sounds are on C2-C3, it's not gonna work [02:08] abstrakt: I can use any note. [02:08] I just don't know which. [02:08] I am fairly certain I should start with 24, as that's what eHow says. [02:08] MindVirus, well first of all I would try to find out from the MIDI controller's manual how to program which notes the pads play [02:08] 24 is C1, which is the first note. [02:09] k, sure [02:09] ActionParsnip: where do i add the boot option text [02:09] abstrakt: I am the programmer. [02:09] MindVirus, ok cool [02:09] abstrakt: I made the MIDI controller. [02:09] It's software in my computer. [02:09] MindVirus, well yeah I dunno, I just plug in a MIDI keyboard and it works for me [02:09] I'm glad. Mine doesn't work. [02:09] It is acknowledging MIDI events but not accepting them. [02:09] MindVirus, do you have a regular "piano" style external MIDI controller you can try? [02:09] No. [02:10] hmm, yeah, tough situation then [02:10] But what I can tell you is that when I route through Timidity, it plays correctly, but it plays piano notes. [02:10] NightDragon: in the quotes next to: quiet splash . If you wanted a desktop OS, why didn't you install the desktop ISO? [02:11] ghostnik11: Try $ sudo apt-get install os-prober Then try $ sudo upgrade-grub again. [02:11] MindVirus: can you not change the default instrument? [02:11] ActionParsnip: i did not want a desktop OS. i wanted a server that i could boot gnome into if i needed to. What file contains that stuff that you just said? [02:11] ActionParsnip: I can change instruments. [02:11] Setting it on 127 makes these crazy woosh noises. [02:12] NightDragon: then just install gnome [02:12] But the drum MIDI interface is not an "instrument". [02:12] hello everyone [02:12] It's a channel. [02:12] NightDragon: /etc/default/grub [02:12] Each note in the channel is a different instrument. [02:12] And setting the instrument does nothing. [02:13] NightDragon: you can use the desktop OS as a server, theres no limitation saying you cannot use a desktop OS as a server [02:13] pjsingh5000: got it, thanks will go install powerstrip right away and get resolution settings be back in a few [02:13] NightDragon: the whole idea of the server release is to NOT have an X server to not only use fewer resources but to also make it more secure due to fewer services running on it, installing a DE on it completely negates this [02:13] NightDragon: very true server is just softwhere [02:14] I am having some issues with some permissions. I was wondering if someone could help me out [02:14] Re [02:14] I just got apache, and vsftpd setup [02:14] I have it setup so I can upload my files to the website directory [02:14] Does someone can make calls using his cellphone via bluetooth ? [02:14] ActionParsnip, abstrakt: Any ideas? [02:14] but all the files that I am uploading threw ftp, are receiving the ownership of the logged on user through ftp [02:15] NightDragon: genrely server ubuntu is istalled on systems without displays or fans of not having a gui [02:15] Hey guys, I'm testing new RAM with memtest86+... Can anybody tell me why memtest86+, on the left side, says I have 3838M but I have 4GB=4092M, which is recognized by my computer's BIOS [02:15] how would I go about setting it up so all the files written to the /var/www directory receive a global ownership [02:15] ?

[02:24] fredfredfredfred, debian.kako isn't a valid domain name, the only way it will resolve properly is if your dns server on your network supports it [02:25] ActionParsnip: command not found [02:25] fredfredfredfred: `sorry: lsb_release -c thanks [02:25] steev_: i see. so i need to add debian.kakio into my bind or tinydns then?

Debian is supported in #debian [02:26] well sorry i just thought this was kind of a cross OS issue [02:26] fredfredfredfred, correct, whatever you are running as a dns server needs to know that it is .kakio [02:26] im running this debian in a virtual machine inside ubuntu, does that count, lol [02:26] fredfredfredfred: your distribution has it's own channel [02:27] steev_: OK i can add debian.kakio into my DNS then but i dont know what ip to point to if so [02:27] How much merch have you sold?

For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList [02:32] !es | donel [02:32] hii jaja im just kidding [02:32] que pasa english?

[02:32] well im new in ubuntu!! [02:33] right..... [02:33] im getting trouble to get some apps [02:33] while trying to mount my flash driver i get mount: only root can mount /dev/sdc on /media/sc any idea? [02:34] ActionParsnip: i understand. But like I said, its just a matter of a virtual machine inside my ubuntu. I want to do the exact same operation on my ubuntu system as well. the hostname on my ubuntu system is fred-laptop.kakio . I have a dns on my ubuntu too. If I want to add a dns entry for my hostname in DNS, what ip should i be pointing to then if not 127.0.0.1? [02:34] makaveli0129: you mount with sudo in the front [02:34] izinucs: i'm trying to use gparted [02:34] to format it [02:34] makaveli0129: then you don't want to mount it.. you can't format it while mounted [02:34] !grub [02:34] grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. [02:34] izinucs: it won't let me even change the permission so i can write to the flash drive from a normal user [02:35] izinucs: if i unmount it and then try to format i get another error [02:35] !grub2 [02:35] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10. For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [02:35] makaveli0129: so the flash drive is on /dev/sdc? [02:35] Im trying to setup an internet gateway on my local network 192.168.10.X. My router has two interfaces eth0 and eth1 at 192.168.10.71 and .72 respectively. eth0 is set so its gateway is the real gateway 192.168.10.1. I want to use 192.168.10.72 as a gateway on all the other boxes on the local network. I had it working before reboot. Im using http://pastebin.com/kQWrdf6M. Is something missing? [02:35] yea [02:35] izinucs: i tried chmod 777 /dev/sdc [02:36] where do i set environment variables to be exported into applations run from inside X? [02:36] izinucs: also tried chown and chgrp [02:36] makaveli0129: have you tried .. sudo chown : /dev/sdc [02:36] is there a unity channel or just the ot channel [02:36] makaveli0129: is it plugged into a hub or direct to the computer? [02:36] plugged direct [02:37] izinucs: if i sudo mount and then sudo cp i can copy stuff to and from it [02:37] but i want to be able to do it with my normal user [02:37] can anyone tell me how to config grub2 ... i have two hard drives one with ubuntu one with windows ... i need to find a place to add the windows info into boot [02:37] makaveli0129: did you do the chown command I mentioned. [02:38] izinucs: yep and it doesn't work [02:38] izinucs: no errors but it doesn't change anything [02:38] when I upgraded to 10.10 I lost volume control in my tvtime application. I have volume control in tvtime via the desktop panel. Any ideas anyone? [02:38] makaveli0129: what do you get when you .. ls -la /dev/sdc1 [02:39] izinucs: ls: cannot access /dev/sdc1: No such file or directory [02:39] izinucs: but it's not mounted yet [02:39] makaveli0129: can you mount it? [02:39] makaveli0129: then repeat [02:39] izinucs: same error [02:40] izinucs: even with sudo [02:40] izinucs: how would i format from terminal? [02:40] izinucs: since the disk utility is being dumb? [02:40] makaveli0129: sorry I don't know that .. [02:40] makaveli0129: do you know what file system type it currently has? [02:41] izinucs: fat [02:41] hello [02:41] izinucs: now the weird thing is that if i change it to ext4 works fine [02:41] everytime I upload some files to my web directory threw ftp I have to keep updating the permissions because the ownership is set to that of the login for the ftp [02:41] anyone use fortran?? [02:41] makaveli0129: fat16 or 32? [02:41] how would I go about setting the permissions up so they will stay static ? [02:41] hmm .. is there a config file i can change to make grub see my windows partition to boot it to ? [02:42] izinucs: disk utility doesn't say so i'm going to assume 32 [02:42] !dual boot [02:42] Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot [02:42] makaveli0129: now how do you change it to ext4? do the same process again to reformat it. [02:42] how can you drag a link to the desktop or better to the launcher in UNE [02:42] intel fortran 11.1 [02:42] izinucs: i think what it was is there was no partition table on it [02:43] what would cause my sound to randomly stop working? not caused by updates, it was just working fine this afternoon, and after coming back to my computer (still up) an hour later it's not working [02:44] izinucs: still not working [02:44] makaveli0129: sorry I don't know how to guide you from here.. someone else will hv to pickup the thread [02:45] sudo update-grub2 ... bye [02:46] hi [02:46] I have a question [02:46] can I install Kiba-dock on my 10.10 [02:46] ask it :P [02:46] !dock [02:46] izinucs: it worked just by creating a partition disk utility just formatted it but there was no partition table [02:47] izinucs: thanks for all the help tho!!! [02:47] makaveli0129: you can't format without a partition table [02:47] ActionParsnip: i have tried before and now still have no luck finding anything searchin for productline and ubuntu... i am really stuck here. got to have that wireless working.. i installed ubuntu on this laptop for my neighbour after trying out with live-cd and every thing worked. also after install first time.. then my neighbour did something that made me have to reinstall and now wireless... [02:47] ...networks is gone... heeeeelp :) [02:47] can i?? [02:47] izinucs: disk utility i guess allows you too which is why it was causing so many problems [02:48] izinucs: lol [02:48] can help me? [02:48] hello - I've got an install of 10.04 server and I'd like to shrink my primary partition and creat a new one to hold all my multimedia - partioning drives kinda scares me [02:48] is there an easy way to srink an ext4 parition? [02:49] ActionParsnip gone too? [02:49] Can I install Kiba-dock on my ubuntu 10.10? [02:49] hey guys [02:50] long time no heard from [02:50] Hello. I was wondering if it's possible to do a minimal install of Ubuntu (just the OS without the GUI) and install a custom GUI on top of it? [02:50] AudioTeknikk: huh? [02:50] Snakkah: sure, there is a minimal iso [02:50] hey, anyone know anything about an error code having to do with glib opening [02:50] yes snakkah [02:50] Snakkah: you can install the server version and theen choose a GUI or you can install Xubuntu for the most minimal GUI [02:50] whenever i start up the computer [02:50] snakkah: you must install the minal ubuntu cd [02:51] snakkah: doenload it [02:51] Is the server pretty much the same as the desktop just without a GUI? [02:51] comes up with a little message like *******Warning****** Glib doesn't recognize your user id [02:51] Or would you recommend just going with the minimal? [02:51] userpswrd [02:51] something like that [02:51] Snakkah: it has some stuff that the desktop doesnt obviously so maybe minimal is better [02:51] Snakkah: i'd go with minimal [02:51] Okay. [02:51] Snakkah: yes sort of.. different kernel and startup processes.. but then you can put a gui on top if you want. [02:52] I'm just thinking of putting OpenBox on it instead of something heavy like GNOME or KDE. [02:52] Snakkah: may one enquire as to why one wishes to choose any other gui than the eminent GNOME gui that comes with the ordinary ubuntu? [02:52] hey, anyone know anything about an error code having to do with glib opening [02:52] comes up with a little message like *******Warning****** Glib doesn't recognize your user id [02:52] I tried CrunchBang, but I want to do some things for myself. [02:52] Snakkah: openbox is in the repos.. so that won't be an issue [02:52] Snakkah: yeah, minimal is great for that, get it installed, setup networking (wired makes this waaay easier) then install openbox and go make some food :) [02:52] l337 [02:53] Can I install Kiba- dock on my ubuntu 10.10? [02:53] Okay cool. [02:53] ActionParsnip: you told me to search for the product line earlier.. having problems with wireless network [02:53] hey guys i have a question: I was wondering if one of you have the book called (a begginer's guide to ethical hacking) to share ? [02:53] hari__: probably but it's not in the repos.. [02:53] lantjie, Check your local barnes & nobles as they most likelty have it === jenkinbr is now known as roflwafflez [02:54] Omg... [02:54] The minimal is only 12 MB. O_O [02:54] hmm ok [02:55] thx [02:55] oke thanks for your help [02:55] I need some assistance with installing some modules of a newer version of ipset since ubuntu is still on version 2.5 and the latest release is 4.4 [02:55] all of you here [02:55] hello [02:55] module-assistant keeps erroring out when doing auto-install [02:56] I'm having a problem compiling clutk [02:57] something about ctk-perspective-correct-rendering.c and CoglColor [02:57] So I grabbed the 4.4 source package and did a manual compile using the KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/kernel-headers..... === jimisrvrox_ is now known as jimisrvrox [02:58] sup everyone. i have a super noobish question about mount points and seperate partitions through file manager. where i used to have an icon i clicked for my ntfs windows partition, when i now click it, it says "error creating mount point: no such file or directory". any help on how to manually repair this would be awesome! :D [03:00] I'm having trouble ripping an audio CD to mp3, following the usual instructions online is not working. When I use sound juicer, the option to select mp3 is not present, even if the gnome audio profile exists. [03:00] i ran: sudo lshw -C network; rfkill list.. nor soft or hard blocked. logical name: wlan0 , physical id: 0 , 0: phy0: Wireless lan , driver=ath5k broadcast=yes , muliticast=yes [03:00] terminal command to logout any1 ? [03:00] trojan_spike, exit [03:00] #limesurvey [03:00] user log out [03:01] trojan_spike: "exit" to exit that terminal, or "sudo shutdown -h now" if you want to turn off the computer? [03:01] sayo what do you have at file /etc/fstab ? do /mnt/stuff paths mentioned there exist on /mnt directory? [03:01] i know halt , reboot , but dont know logout [03:01] trojan_spike, "sudo shutdown -fnr now" for a now reboot [03:01] trojan_spike, If your just exiting a terminal or ssh session, exit works fine [03:02] ActionParsnip: i ran: sudo lshw -C network; rfkill list.. nor soft or hard blocked. logical name: wlan0 , physical id: 0 , 0: phy0: Wireless lan , driver=ath5k broadcast=yes , muliticast=yes [03:02] jfcaron: you may need to install lame or ubuntu-restricted-extras.. try the second one first. [03:02] rooks: sayo@SATCOM:~$ file /etc/fstab [03:02] /etc/fstab: ASCII English text [03:02] that? [03:02] AudioTeknikk: you need the product line, probably ATH5001 or somesuch... [03:02] izinucs: afaik I have lame installed, and rhythmbox can play mp3s just fine. Is ubuntu-restricted-extras a synaptic package? [03:02] jfcaron: yes [03:03] jfcaron, You will need the restricted packages to make mp3's [03:03] Ok, but I didn't need it to play them? [03:03] jfcaron, correct [03:03] jfcaron, biff difference in using a player that can decode them and creating one [03:03] rooks: there's also nothing when i ls /mnt :O [03:04] ActionParsnip thata is correct :) [03:04] sayo do cat /etc/fstab from terminal [03:04] jfcaron, the restricted extras will give you all the other codecs as well to play other formats [03:04] sayo do "cat /etc/fstab" from terminal, without quotes, it will display contents [03:04] sorry AR5001 [03:04] of that file [03:06] So I'm gonna be a bit of a compile noob here for a minute and ask what else do I need to do to make ipset 4.4 work as a kernel module under ubuntu 10.10 server now that I have done a make & make install using the KERNEL_SRC= directive [03:06] where can I find 32-bit libraries for intel fortran 11.1 [03:06] rooks: http://pastebin.com/EWUFCuVQ [03:06] anyone knows?? [03:06] AudioTeknikk: wored for me: http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/atheros_ar5007eg needs madwifi compiling, keep the source handy as you will need to compile after each kernel upgrade [03:07] how can some one post img in xchat [03:07] I search in google ,but I can't find it [03:07] sayo, hmm.. sucks, i thought it was hardcoded there :( [03:07] not an option.. it is my neighbours computer. [03:07] pastebin.ubuntu doesn't accept the file format [03:09] So I'm gonna be a bit of a compile noob here for a minute and ask what else do I need to do to make ipset 4.4 work as a kernel module under ubuntu 10.10 server now that I have done a make & make install using the KERNEL_SRC= directive ??? [03:09] rooks: wait what....what's that meaannnnn :O [03:09] rooks: did i accidently delete my windows partition or something? [03:09] rmozden, gcc - o exploit your0wned.c [03:09] or at least damage it somehow to make it permenantly umountable :O [03:09] sayo, i thought the mount points, the directories where windows partition is attached to your system, were written in that fstab file [03:10] sayo, i dont think so :) [03:10] <|XN|> anyone know a channel I should go to if I were looking to write a stateful web browser in javascript? [03:10] AudioTeknikk: there may be a package you can install to get the driver. Maybe installing linux-backports-modules-wireless-maverick (I assume maverick) will make it go, they may HAVE to do the compiles to get it working [03:10] MetaPhaze, Wow, arent you helpful [03:10] sayo, what does command dmesg say, and what does 'tail -n 50 /var/log/messages" say? [03:11] how do i get this [03:11] rooks: well that's good. can you by any chance tell me rhetorically where my windows partition is, from where i am in the shell? is it like...sdb5 in /dev/ [03:11] i do not have i net on the laptop im trying to fix here [03:11] Thanks izinucs, the ubuntu-restricted-extras did the trick. [03:11] rmozden, are you being sarcastic? [03:11] /home/ghostnik11/Desktop/PICT0459.JPG [03:11] rooks: when i run dmesg it always outputs too much, is there a script or way to write it to a log file? === tmwnn is now known as nobodyhome [03:12] but i do not get it... this worked fine in the first place.. then it stops [03:12] MetaPhaze, No worse thenyou with the "gcc -o exploit yourOwned.c" bit [03:12] Sayo: dmesg|less [03:12] jfcaron: good to hear.. [03:12] Or dmesg > tempfile && less tempfile [03:12] sayo, you can manually attach it, make a directory for it in /mnt, like "mkdir /mnt/win-test" and then "sudo mount /dev/sdb5 /mnt/win-test" and see if it will appear in there [03:12] rmozden, I must have been mistaken I thought you wanted to hack the Gibson? [03:12] rooks: http://pastebin.com/i3N6pHsr [03:12] hi [03:12] MetaPhaze, Nah, I just want ipset to work [03:13] Is it possible for root auto login? [03:13] AudioTeknikk: then move to where you can get a wired connection, its a laptop so it can move VERY easily [03:13] pjsingh5000: so i got in xp and used powerstrip and found my max resolution i can go up to is 1600x1200 at 75hz/85hz [03:13] sayo, you can always reroute output with adding "> file" [03:13] to the command [03:13] lyj: not only is root disabled and not supported, the GDM is configured to reject root logins [03:13] !noroot | lyj [03:13] lyj: We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information. [03:13] rmozden, welcome to my world, looking for real support [03:13] lyj: so all in all, no. Plus its a really bad idea [03:13] But I want to auto login as root [03:13] rmozden, just venting on you, sorry [03:13] lyj: its not supported [03:14] lyj init config [03:14] I get it :) [03:14] lyj: root logins are a really dumb idea and enabling the account reduces system security greatly [03:14] It seems that fedora 12 can auto login using root [03:14] rooks: i found it, sda2 is the drive [03:14] lyj: thats a different distro [03:14] MetaPhaze, My prob is that using mudule-assistant to make the 2.5 module version of ipset pukes. I can and have compiled the 4.4 version from source but it installed it to my user dir [03:14] lyj linux by default will support that feature, which is insecure [03:14] MetaPhaze, No worries... I can take it as well as I can dish it too [03:15] lyj: thaey have different ideas of what a distro should do and not do [03:15] :) In some cases, I can contorl the security [03:15] rooks: so dmesg > dmesg.log createst a log file to my home folder? [03:15] Sayo, Yes [03:15] Sayo, yes [03:15] lyj: you can do ANYTING in ubuntu using sudo and gksudo [03:15] lyj if your intersted research init config for root autologin [03:15] Sayo, or any other screen outpuit you want in a file [03:15] oh man soooo good to know thank you :D [03:15] ActionParsnip: OK thanks ... but is there a .deb file for this backport thingy? [03:16] .... I just didn't want to type root when I login [03:16] ActionParsnip, I posted in Ubuntu forums lets see what happens '_ [03:16] ;) [03:16] AudioTeknikk: i think its a metapackage, i suggest you get a wired connection, it'll be a tonne easier [03:16] AudioTeknikk: the updates may bring in the files you need [03:16] lyj, you wouldnt type root anyway. you would use your username and then sudo whatever you needed to do as root [03:16] ...OK [03:16] lyj: you shouldn't log in as root [03:16] lyj, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=528303 [03:16] sayo, so try doing the following: make a directory for that parition in /mnt, like "sudo mkdir /mnt/win-test" and then "sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/win-test" and see if it will appear in there in that direcotory [03:17] lyj: its a really dumb idea [03:17] rooks: dmesg: http://pastebin.com/eJRPRzdi [03:17] he knows he shouldn't autologin as root [03:17] I know ubuntu can't do so [03:17] he is trying to hack something [03:17] hi [03:17] I just handle my own computer and want to auto login... [03:17] rooks: it did [03:17] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=528303 [03:17] So the risk can be controlled [03:17] <|XN|> can't you passwd root password? [03:17] Sayo, sweet :) [03:17] HI ,PJSingh5000 ,i managed to resolve that problem last night. [03:17] |XN|, not unless you go back and set password encryption settings [03:17] I mean auto login [03:18] rooks: so now how do i get file manager to restore the mount point? [03:18] using root [03:18] lyj: its not controled at all, you are runing X and all the apps you launch as root too [03:18] subtitles files in ubuntu [03:18] lyj, once logged in as your user account you can do a sudo -i if you need to be root for a long time [03:18] by defautl it is going to MD5 password, then with most modern distros are going to salt the MD5 [03:18] rammyIRC: what about them? [03:18] In my room ,only I can access my PC... [03:18] ActionParsnip: OK thanks again :) [03:18] lyj: if you use web browsers, any remote explouits in flash and java script will too [03:18] lyj: unless you're on the net.. then logged in as root anyone can get at you [03:18] So I'm gonna be a bit of a compile noob here for a minute and ask what else do I need to do to make ipset 4.4 work as a kernel module under ubuntu 10.10 server now that I have done a make & make install using the KERNEL_SRC= directive ??? [03:18] they r nt recognized [03:18] Sayo, i dont know, but i know how to make it auto mounted there, by adding line to /etc/fstab [03:18] by my player [03:19] PJSingh5000:It was because several dags ago ,i changed the umask in /etc/profile from 022 to 133. [03:19] :) only one user [03:19] lyj: not on the net [03:19] and usualy I will turn off the net [03:19] sayo, so it will always be in /mnt/win [03:19] lyj: if you use the OS as user, they wont get any access, as root they can cause all manner of hell on your PC [03:19] Yes [03:19] <|XN|> bear in mind [03:19] lyj: not if the remote exploit makes another, it can, as it will be root [03:19] lyj: perhaps you really want to simply auto logon? [03:19] Yes [03:19] <|XN|> we existed in a 'root' state for years using windows :P [03:19] rmozden, does make install not give you any options for ipset? [03:19] lyj, if you need autologin for root I suggest a different flavor of linux as it will not happen in ubuntu for security reasons [03:19] rooks: aghhhh damn yeah i can get that part, i need to figure out how to fix the pointing error :/ [03:19] <|XN|> *most* of us didn't suffer long term trauma from it [03:19] lyj: so your security is zero if you web browse as root [03:20] rooks: but thank you never the less! :) [03:20] lyj: yes to auto logon? as your user? [03:20] MetaPhaze, It all ended up in my home folder [03:20] lyj, nonsense you can autologin root on ubuntu if you want [03:20] linux = linux [03:20] MetaPhaze: its not advised or supported [03:20] Sayo, ah, k :) sorry for misleading a bit then :) [03:20] I keep my PC offline [03:20] <|XN|> ActionParsnip: And still 100% possible [03:20] <|XN|> ;) [03:20] ActionParsnip, its not advised nor supported. thats fine, but he wants his sys to do that [03:20] When I go to watch TED videos, all I get is a blue box. What do I need to do? Same in firefox and epiphany. lucid. [03:20] Ah... So many philosophy.. [03:20] |XN|: yes but not advised or supported or a goodd idea in any way [03:21] <|XN|> ANd still 100% possible [03:21] * |XN| shrugs [03:21] <|XN|> its his machine [03:21] <|XN|> libre! [03:21] Exactly [03:21] |XN|: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:21] his machine [03:21] rooks: no worries, but could you spare the command to delete a folder? [03:21] rm is it? [03:21] |XN|: i'm not contesting the possibility [03:21] lyj, root autologin goes against best practice for security [03:21] auto login using root [03:21] Sayo: rm -r folder [03:21] HE DOES NOT CARE [03:21] thanks! [03:21] He just wants it to autologin as root [03:21] I say I keep it offline [03:21] and bear the risk [03:21] !noroot [03:21] We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information. [03:21] !root [03:21] Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [03:21] lyj, and additionally it isnt supported in ubuntu [03:21] Sayo, yes [03:21] lyj, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=528303 [03:22] hi everyone [03:23] Thank you MetaPhaze [03:23] rooks: what would the syntax be to edit fstab to always mount that drive at a location? [03:23] So I'm gonna be a bit of a compile noob here for a minute and ask what else do I need to do to make ipset 4.4 work as a kernel module under ubuntu 10.10 server now that I have done a make & make install using the KERNEL_SRC= directive ??? [03:23] rmozden: you might also ask in ##linux [03:23] lyj, no problem, most here don't understand the concept [03:23] Sayo, rm -r to remove a directory, when in doubt you can always consult manual by typing man rm [03:23] rmozden: insmod [03:24] Yes, they are talking more about the philosophy [03:24] lyj, i know [03:24] i'm looking to install last ubuntu (10.10) on my macbook pro 5,5. i want to install it from usb, i follow the instructions on ubuntu.com, download section, but i can't boot from usb [03:24] could anyone help me please? [03:24] ruimartins: did you MD5 test the ISO before transferring to the USB? [03:24] Sayo, "/dev/sda2 /mnt/win auto defaults 0 0" without quotes [03:25] lyj, if you want to do something, how do you do it...not lets talk philospohy. Thats why ive been in this chan for the better part of a day trying to get ubuntu installed [03:25] no [03:25] !md5 | ruimartins [03:25] ruimartins: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [03:25] lyj, i know exactly why you want root autologin ;) thats your business, not mine but thats how you do it [03:25] rooks: thanks! [03:25] i came here looking for help, instead been giving out help for hours, since I can't find anyone that has a clue on how *nix works [03:25] You want to get ubuntu installed?? [03:25] MetaPhaze: why would you want root access? [03:26] but the problem is that don't show USB from boot menu of mac os, i don't think that corrupted image could be a problem... [03:26] but i'll check [03:26] ActionParsnip, for purposes other then administrating your own machine? duh [03:26] Haven't you installed ubuntu? [03:26] Sayo, youre welcome :) [03:26] MetaPhaze: can you expand on that please [03:26] lyj I can't even ge tthis BS distro to install [03:26] ActionParsnip, if I got access to YOUR box [03:26] :o [03:26] ActionParsnip, why not have ROOT on YOUR box [03:27] what is BS distor? [03:27] bullshit distro [03:27] why not? [03:27] MetaPhaze: you can with sudo -i .. until you "exit" .. no need to actually boot into root [03:27] Anything I can help [03:27] MetaPhaze: just 'su' [03:27] instead of sudo [03:27] sure su as root [03:27] It's easy to install ubuntu [03:27] mooly: su doesn't do it.. sudo -i = su [03:27] but if ive got access to a box, cracked the *nix MD5 [03:28] MetaPhaze: because it isnt needed, i can do absolutely anything with sudo and gksud [03:28] why fuck around that shit, since I can just login in to the box as root [03:28] su is a better idea than sudo [03:28] saves a step [03:28] MetaPhaze: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:28] You just login use common user [03:28] MetaPhaze: logging in as root and launching apps launches them as root so if anything malicious starts happening with them, then there is zer limit to damage [03:28] and su to get root priviliege [03:28] lyj: use: sudo -i [03:29] use su [03:29] dont use sudo -i [03:29] ActionParsnip, if I'm logged in as root I can maniulplate anything [03:29] mooly: try it.. it doesn't work [03:29] I usually use #sudo passwd su [03:29] MetaPhaze: i can do that without root [03:29] to change root passwd [03:29] and then can su at my will [03:29] then root my box and help me install ubuntu to this drive ;) [03:29] or login using root when start X [03:29] !language | MetaPhaze [03:29] MetaPhaze: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [03:29] MetaPhaze: if you use a browser as root and there are alicious scripts then the script can make users and install things and change your OS without you knowing [03:29] how to get su to play nice with kde4? [03:30] lol #ubuntu being family friendly [03:30] mooly: can't su if you dont have a root password [03:30] * izinucs thinks "not another! [03:30] MetaPhaze: as a user, the access is limited to $HOME only [03:30] ActionParsnip, thats what I think lyj is teying to accomplish [03:30] lyj: we dont recommend setting a root password here [03:30] lyj is TRYING TO HACK A BOX [03:30] MetaPhaze: what, breaking his/her OS? [03:30] Not hack [03:30] ugh nevermind subject moves on [03:30] lol no root password [03:30] maco: ive been trying to tell them and why its a bad idea and not supported [03:30] maco: that's already been made clear [03:30] I just want to fast open my PC [03:30] `sudo passwd` [03:30] Of course it is a foolish idea [03:31] unlesss ts not your box [03:31] lyj: what is "fast open" [03:31] mooly: why is the idea of using respectful family-friendly language funny to you? [03:31] then who gives a POOP [03:31] MetaPhaze: its a bad idea, period [03:31] maco, its not just frustrated sorry [03:31] open PC and fast login using root without any words typeed [03:31] maco: i never said anything about language [03:31] I strongly respect the language here [03:31] lol [03:31] when I'm back it's waiting for me [03:31] mooly: you lol'd at family friendly [03:31] maco: i sure did [03:32] How do I watch a TED talk? All I get is a blue box. [03:32] lyj: Is there anything wrong with automatic login as a normal user that isn't root? [03:32] lyj: The start up time would be the same. [03:32] alright, I'm having a very frustrating time with this error message: "Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode." I've been trying to fix it for several hours and I've gotten nowhere. Is there anyone that can help me with this? [03:32] if using normal user, I need type sudo many times when I want to gain root priviliege [03:33] Diamondcite: no, that's fine [03:33] also, I think it's https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31154 this bug [03:33] look this is how i feel [03:33] tortoise: what graphic card [03:33] ATI Radeon X1200 [03:33] maco and lyj = same person? [03:33] can someone tell me what the difference between the ubuntu 10.10 ~700mb cd iso file and the ~4.2gb dvd iso is? [03:33] lyj: yes, thats normal [03:33] Diamondcite: no [03:33] No [03:33] lyj: and then if someone gets something sneaky on your system, they would have to know your sudo password too, but they hopefully won't so, yay! security! [03:33] we are different [03:33] I can't tell who wanted what -_-' [03:33] lyj: your sudo gets a grace period so you dont have to type the password each time [03:34] lyj: as normal user sudo -i will give you root for as long as you want without having ot retype it over and over [03:34] ActionParsnip: 15 minutes, iirc [03:34] my PC is offline [03:34] Well i gotta get drunk and I sure do dread it...cuz i just know what im gonna do...gonna start spending my money call everyone honey, wind up singing the blues... [03:34] Yes, you say as long as [03:34] lyj, PM me for help on this issue [03:34] i know what you want [03:34] lyj: If you don't mind being asked.. what can you do that needs root that often? [03:34] lyj: you can use: sudo -i and it won't ask until you type: exit [03:34] Anyone have any idea why I can't install Ubuntu to a DEV GPART sees? [03:34] hey also,anyone know if you can switch the desktop mode in UNR? [03:34] lyj: as long as you dont type "logout" or "exit" or hit ctrl+D, sudo -i will stay put [03:34] izinucs, not sure if you saw that. But just in case, it's an ATI Radeon X1200 [03:35] haha ,you say as long as again [03:35] tortoise: nope didn't.. sounds like an older one is that right? [03:35] lyj: er....? and? [03:35] you a [03:35] is something wrong with that phrase? [03:35] izinucs, yeah, it is [03:35] * ActionParsnip smells a troll === Ttech is now known as W6JCN [03:35] ActionParsnip: ditto [03:35] hey , i am naive to linux/ubuntu, can anyone suggest how can i fix sound problem [03:36] can't buy me love [03:36] lyj: "sudo su" also works to get a root shell. [03:36] I say I know how to get a root shell. [03:36] This error is really irritating, and I really need to have this gui by tomorrow morning for school. It would be great if someone could help me fix this [03:36] tortoise: I'm not sure if the drivers have caught up with it .. when x.org changed to 7.x or was it 1.7x something like that.. it broke compatability for older ati cards and ati decited to put efforts into their newer stuff first.. not sure if there is a fix or not. [03:36] I was trying to get help in #radeon, but that place is dead right now [03:36] lyj: much more secure that way === W6JCN is now known as Ttech [03:37] So I'm gonna be a bit of a compile noob here for a minute and ask what else do I need to do to make ipset 4.4 work as a kernel module under ubuntu 10.10 server now that I have done a make & make install using the KERNEL_SRC= directive ??? [03:37] if it's offline, any dangerous? [03:37] tortoise: perhaps in ##linux [03:37] but it was working fine earlier [03:37] MetaPhaze, New error message at least [03:37] lyj: its good practice for when and if you get online [03:37] it had been working for a few weeks. And I didn't have any updates before it happened. [03:37] tortoise: how do you mean "earlier".. on 8.04 or 9.10? [03:37] Ar... Stop talking about philosophy... [03:37] lyj: a root shell (no matter how you get to it) is dangerous offline if you forget to lock your screen...but other than that, not really [03:38] no, I've had 10.04 for a few weeks. And it had been working fine until earlier today. === carlos is now known as Guest28043 [03:38] tortoise: any recent updates? [03:38] tortoise: did you change anything? [03:38] izinucs, none [03:38] lyj: Instaed of philosophy.. why do you want to be root on login? What does root login let you do that you can't do as a normal user or bothers you so much that root must be used? [03:38] lyj: i never mentioned philosophy [03:38] izinucs, I was restarting to get back in ubuntu (I was in vista doing something) and when I booted ubunut up it gave me that error [03:39] MetaPhaze, I suppose this is progress: FATAL: Module ip_set not found. [03:39] ipset v4.4: Couldn't verify kernel module version! [03:39] I don't need sudo any more if login as root [03:39] I think , it is really dangerous when you always use root to login. [03:39] tortoise: If your Wubi'ing, your best bet is to do a native install of Ubuntu and virtualize Windows if required. [03:39] tortoise: do a full update with .. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade .. then look in system>admin>hardware drivers and see if there's something there to activate. [03:39] evening, i have an ipod touch 3rd generation. I would like to add pdf's to it so that they show up in ibooks or stanza from ubuntu 10.10. is that possible? rythmbox wont let me sync the pdf to the device. [03:39] rmozden, standbye I got like 50 PM's [03:40] lyj: And you need to sudo for what purpose? To browse the web? Listen to much? Make a picture? [03:40] rusivi, I'm not wubi'ing, I've got ubuntu on a separate partition from vista [03:40] tortoise: hadn't thought of that.. is this a Wubi install? [03:40] Diamondcite: i can think of things that would likely break if logged in to gnome as root... like every application that uses policykit [03:40] MetaPhaze, lucky you! Hopefully to help fix your issue! [03:40] rmozden, they are everyones issues [03:40] when I installed, I just shrunk the partition vista was on, and installed ubuntu in the largest block of free space [03:40] PM me your issue [03:40] maco: I just want to know why he hates to do sudo, what can make a user need it so often every single day to want to be logged in as root instead. [03:40] since no one can help ill just help everyone else [03:40] i've been gone through every frikin thread on the internet and can't seem to install my canon PIXMA iP1600....help? [03:40] so any file or folder you can access using normal account? [03:40] tortoise: do the update as a first step [03:41] In such cases, you should su [03:41] lyj: why? [03:41] izinucs, which update? [03:41] !danger [03:41] DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! [03:41] lyj: you can use sudo and gksudo to get any access you need [03:41] lyj: sy him sudo -i [03:41] pksadiq: uh.....which? [03:41] tortoise: check for your highlight line from me above.. [03:41] lyj: say* [03:41] tortoise: do a full update with .. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade .. then look in system>admin>hardware drivers and see if there's something there to activate. [03:41] lyj: You can go to just about every part of the system as a normal user. The only parts you can't write to are parts that'll harm you anyway. The only parts that you can't read, are not meant to be seen by a normal user anyway or people taking over your system for that matter. [03:42] maco: use sudo -i or gksudo it's safe [03:42] Yes , just write [03:42] lyj, you should be able to issue 'su root ****' to the init.config [03:42] pksadiq: "su" itself isnt actively dangerous. particularly since it *wont work* by default ;-) [03:42] MetaPhaze: i dont think you can give the password on the su line [03:42] lyj: So.. why do you want to write into /proc.. or maybe the hashed passwords file? [03:43] izinucs, I'm in cli, because I can't access the gui with this error. But when I did the upgrade there was apparently nothing to upgrade to. 0 upgraded, 0 newly, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. [03:43] hehe, I didn't want to enum. [03:43] So what if I didn't need.. [03:44] tortoise: well.. it was worth a shot.. sorry I'm not much of an ati person.. I've no idea how to fix it. [03:44] maco you should be able to with an ascii return [03:44] ALT+*** [03:44] MetaPhaze: ctrl+M i thought.... [03:44] izinucs, sigh, no one seems to know anything about this error. DO you have any suggestions for where else to ask for help? [03:44] should be able to give init.config a return carrier with the passwd yhou want [03:44] I'm already trying to get help in #radeon [03:44] not sure about linux, since ic an't use it right now [03:45] but I think the standard ASCII code is ALT+3(NumberPAD) [03:45] lyj: Select programs can always be made to always run as root.. Or you can even have it so that a single change can be made and even folders you aren't supposed to see becomes visible to you. [03:45] tortoise: can try askubuntu.com for tech support from folks who dont have to coincidentally be online when you are [03:45] im pretty sure that will work on *nix, windows, dos, etc... [03:45] MetaPhaze: the use of alt+numpad is a windows thing === elwood is now known as Guest3391 [03:45] tortoise: maybe in ##linux. I had the same on my install with nvidia.. I needed to install the binary driver to fix it.. it may also have something to do with xrandr which controls screen resoution etc. === Guest3391 is now known as elwoodpd [03:46] MetaPhaze: can do ctrl+shift+u to enter unicode codepoints in gtk apps (no support in qt, sadly), but carriage return is ctrl+M in *nix [03:46] maco, it will work in Linux as well [03:46] I installed Ubuntu in parallel with windows and the windows record has disappeared from grub. [03:46] izinucs, alright I'll check those out. Thanks for the help [03:46] not unico === elwoodpd is now known as elwood_pd [03:46] unicode [03:46] ASCII chars [03:46] What can I do? [03:46] tortoise: good luck [03:46] I have other things to attend to.. *poof* [03:46] MetaPhaze: is that a new thing? i tried using alt+ascii-on-numpad in 2006 and it didnt work [03:47] The first time I rebooted it was there now it is gone [03:47] elwoodpd:you can add it yourself [03:47] teach me [03:47] MetaPhaze: i just tried again. doesnt do anything. just types the numbers [03:47] elwood_pd: you can type fdisk -l and find out which partition your windows is in . [03:48] elwood_pd: if you run: sudo update-grub do you see the windows entry being added? [03:48] I have a number of programs in my startup apps - Gnome Keyring PKCS#1, Gnome Keyring: Secret Service, Gnome Keyring:SSH Agent. Which one of these are needed. All I use is the root password and my login password. [03:48] maco, your teling me Vi doesn't support ALT+Numpad? [03:48] MetaPhaze: yep [03:48] nope [03:49] hello again, i have to ask, if i have like 30 gigs of unpartitioned space, is there any way to 'add it' to my current partition? [03:49] elwood_pd:and then in /boot/grub/menu.lst ,add somthing like ....yes ,you should listen ActionParsnip .That's simple [03:49] * rmozden feels frustrated and has to be on a plane at 6am [03:49] sayo yes [03:49] maco Pico should support ALT+NUMpad [03:49] ActionParsnip, windows isn't there [03:49] Sayo: you can make a new partition in it and mount it, or resize a partition into it. If you resize, ensure your backups are up to date in case of catastrophe [03:50] why would it have been dropped? [03:50] MetaPhaze, is there anyway I can just add what I've compiled since I see all the files in my home folder? [03:50] MetaPhaze: pico? you mean nano? [03:50] ActionParsnip: i'd like to resize my current partition but disk utility isn't giving me the option, can i not do it from within this shell? [03:50] anyone know of a good sync program for android [03:50] maco: pico / nano .. both editors [03:50] izinucs: pico is the proprietary not-on-ubuntu one [03:51] elwood_pd: you may try grub-setup [03:51] its been along time since i used *nix sorry if im not up to speed on txt editors [03:51] (although I think pico might still exist as a symlink to nano) [03:51] ActionParsnip: omg my current partition is under a 20 gig extention :( [03:51] MetaPhaze, or for that matter, use module-assistant to use the src I downloaded? [03:51] MetaPhaze: of course neither vi nor nano will accept alt+numpad. the terminal emulator itself does not accept them, so it cant pass it to the editor [03:51] extension* [03:51] rmozden, you want to recompile kernel to include ... ? [03:51] I'm going to assume if i'm locked into set extension i can't resize it? [03:52] MetaPhaze: neither gnome-terminator nor konsole can take them [03:52] MetaPhaze, Should work as a module [03:52] MetaPhaze, Did in 10.04 anyway [03:52] rmozden, im with you now [03:52] you want to add module to kernel [03:52] hmm [03:52] What are you trying to get in to module IPv6? [03:53] fdisk reports two NFTS partitions [03:53] elwood_pd:who are they ? === xd is now known as Guest16791 [03:53] I only though I had one. === _aegis is now known as aegis [03:53] MetaPhaze, Right ... all the files compiled and are sitting in a directory ( for ipset 4.4) but I either need to recompile with module-assistant specifying the 4.4 source or manually install the compiled files [03:54] MetaPhaze, Hopefully that made sense [03:54] /dev/sda1 * 1 13 102400 7 HPFS/NTFS [03:54] rmozden, give me a moment, I know what you want. When you ran make it should have asked you about ipset [03:54] /dev/sda2 13 4870 39009792 7 HPFS/NTFS [03:54] i think you need a real distro ;) [03:54] elwood_pd:You can run this grub-setup /dev/sda [03:54] elwood_pd:and tell me what happened then. [03:55] cannot guess the root device [03:55] re [03:55] apporc, ? [03:55] I'm trying to configure my nfs share. I can mount my share using regular command line, but my fstab isn't working [03:55] MetaPhaze, the dist of ipset for ubuntu is broken and the src from ubuntu errors on compile hence why I went for 4.4 version instead of packaged 2.5 [03:55] rmozden, did you do a... [03:55] elwood_pd:you can try :sudo grub-setup /dev/sda [03:55] 'make dep' [03:56] 'make clean' [03:56] and make? [03:56] Here's my fstab line : "192.168.0.17:/home/serard /home/serard/nfs/test-ubuntu-server nfs user,noauto 0 0" Then I run "sudo mount -a" and I get nothing [03:56] elwood_pd:it doesn't matter which partition is the boot device. [03:56] make clean should fix 4.4ver > 2.5ver [03:56] elwood_pd:just grub-setup /dev/sda wiht root priveleges. [03:57] hello all [03:57] did it with sudo it didn't return anything [03:57] i'm having trouble setting up IPMI on my server [03:57] Could not open device at /dev/ipmi0 [03:57] elwood_pd:yes with sudo. [03:57] hello , [03:57] is the error that i'm getting... does anyone have experience with this [03:57] MetaPhaze, I followed the directions at http://ipset.netfilter.org/install.html [03:57] Guest16791:hello. [03:57] rmozden, standbye let me look === explodingpiglets is now known as annoyingorange [03:58] how would i know if someone is leechin on m network,im usin 8.04 [03:58] MetaPhaze, and I did use the kernel_dir with the compile [03:58] apporc, I did it with sudo, nothing showed up. [03:58] it just newlined [03:58] poulix_troy: look in your routers DHCP clients list for PC names you don't recognise [03:58] did you do a make clean? [03:58] elwood_pd:echo $? [03:58] MetaPhaze, gonna re-do it right now [03:59] workd [03:59] elwood_pd:see the result of "echo $?" and is it 0? [03:59] *works [03:59] nah its $ [03:59] rmozden, good idea [03:59] i dont think you have a proper make clean of the kernel [03:59] elwood_pd:see /boot/grub/grub.cfg . Is there something like :title Microsoft Windows XP [04:00] poulix_troy: or use nmap to probe your subnet for systems to see what is active etc [04:00] make sure you check 'make dep' that you have all dependencies [04:00] MetaPhaze, Problem is that instead of putting the mod files in the proper mod directory it installs them to my home directory [04:00] sorry im old school, i dont know about this point and click shit that dont work [04:00] MetaPhaze, I perfer old school [04:00] rmozden:you should add --prefix=xxxx to ./configure. [04:00] rmozden, i understand, but it shouldntt make a diff [04:01] apporc, Ok, I'm compiling ipset as a module where would I prefixit to? [04:01] rmozden: xxxx,which in --prefix=xxx is the directory to which you want the software installed to . [04:01] does ubuntu support a make menuconfig ? [04:01] apporc, nope [04:01] o_O [04:02] rmozden: try ./configure -h . Is there some information. [04:02] there is MSDOS and ubuntu [04:02] elwood_pd:sudo update-grub [04:02] Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic [04:02] elwood_pd:Did it says:found ...

Check lspci for your USB device then you need to load the correct module === cjae is now known as Shal [05:51] phasma, nothing in lspci, and it all used to work fine until i upgraded to 10.x, im about to kick back to the 9.04 release [05:52] i went w/ xubuntu because i had limited ram then ( 256MB) i got an 1GB kit in the other day. [05:52] anolis, that page is begins with "SVN is no more used and has been replaced by Git. This guide is outdated." so I skipped it. [05:52] hacker_kid definitely sounds like a module issue. Any way you can reboot into a live cd or something and check the make and model of your device? [05:53] Cael: for so little ram i would try lubuntu instead [05:53] phasma, the main concern is an ectaco jetbook, i can get the model but it used to be detected [05:53] bazhang: [05:54] ActionParsnip, whats up [05:54] bazhang: can i PM please dude? [05:54] ActionParsnip, of course [05:54] w/ the 1GB ram kit i have now. should i still tru Lubuntu or dive into kubuntu? [05:55] well im going to reinstall to an old 9.04 image, hopefully the devs figure out basic usb devices by the time 11.04 is out [05:55] hacker_kid: I am wholly confident that a simple kernel downgrade would fix this for you should you not be happy about ascertaining and loading the module [05:56] phasma, i have been looking for and loading modules all day [05:56] ouch. Gotcha [05:56] phasma, the device shows up to all os's as a basic USB storage device [05:57] tho I have never been successful downgrading the kernel in a ubuntu install, could I really knock all the way down to last years kernel? [05:58] hacker_kid: long shot, but you could try removing the device then: sudo rmmod option && sudo rmmod usb_storage - reload them and try the device again. Like I say, that is a long shot, though, as there would likely be evidence of -something- in your dmesg === coolroot is now known as noob-tux [05:59] hacker_kid: I am having similar problems with a device myself and that method described above is while tempramental, does fix it sometimes [05:59] ERROR: Module option does not exist in /proc/modules [05:59] load it and try the device [06:00] hacker_kid: use tab to complete the module names [06:01] hacker_kid: also, check that usb_storage is being loaded [06:01] ActionParsnip, would reinstalling the wm cause it to reset to defaults? [06:01] not a single line in dmesg [06:02] and a usb flash drive is loading perfectly [06:02] guys [06:02] Cael: don't think so, maybe the data in $HOME got damaged, i suggest you boot to liveCD /USB and fsck the partition [06:02] Ubuntu won't accept mouseclicks to anything except the quick application launch area :S [06:02] O [06:02] I've unplugged and replugged the mouse to no avail :( [06:03] im still getting used to linux again. so basicly reinstall? [06:03] Dan```: if you press ALT+F2 and run: metacity --replace are the clicks ok? [06:03] phasma, this doesnt make sense, i cant even find a single log that this device even exists [06:03] ActionParsnip: Nope :( [06:03] well im off to find a USB sd card reader, if i cant fix it i can work around it [06:03] Also, sorry for the late responses. It's kind of annoying to operate a computer with just the keyboard :/ [06:04] phasma, thanks for trying [06:04] hacker_kid: let me know how you get on with it? I am in the process of compiling a list of such devices [06:04] and no problem [06:04] ActionParsnip: I can move the mouse, just that it's not accepting any click input. [06:04] i have problem with drapes on it automatic start up can any one help me please [06:04] That goes for my touchpad as-well :/ [06:05] ActionParsnip: ?

[06:45] Curly_Q: no it isn't. [06:46] Wine Is Not an Emulator [06:46] Curly_Q: its not, vmware needs a full install of the OS. Wine translates windows calls to native linux calls [06:46] AbhiJit, through synaptic manager [06:46] I never said Emulator. It is a shell within the Linux kernel. [06:46] kuki, then there shold never be existance of that .exe file. [06:47] Curly_Q: vmware cannot run without a base OS install including license, which wine doesn't need [06:47] quit [06:47] exit [06:48] The fact is that there are some VMware programs that have the OS built into it. Some VMware software programs superimpose themselves upon Linux and Windows kernels. [06:48] Curly_Q: listen, you're wrong, but this is off topic for this channel. Please stop.

[06:53] ActionParsnip you are wrong. The linux kernel is based upon the Bourne Shell which was fashioned after the Thompson Shell developed by AT&T Labs. VMware is a shell account.

[07:38] linuxson26: Welcome to the world of HSDPA, heh. Try this....

[09:55] im trying to install ubuntu on a windows 7 machines, i get no further than SYSLINUX 3.86 . . .... with a blinking _, ive tried 10.10 server and mini [09:55] dth, thanks a bunch! [09:56] blackdoggy: yes for the swap memory [09:56] galadude: did that "work"? [09:56] blackdoggy: but really suse, fedora and ubuntu. that doesn't make sense, not at all [09:56] tarzeau i just wanted to try.. virtualbox is not that good way to try i found. [09:57] dth, I uninstalled it to reinstall it, so I'll have to wait for it to finish (stupid i know) [09:57] ok :) [09:58] Hey guys, I'm looking for a understandable Network-manager for awesome, any sugestions? [09:58] blackdoggy: it's all the same shit. but rpm based sucks way more, imho [09:59] Hi all, is this the right chan for Ubuntu-Alternate (more specifically, LTSP) support? [09:59] I have created a script under /etc/profile.d called test.sh where I have #!/bin/bash (new line) /home/jen/Scripts/Startup.sh [09:59] In my startup script Startup.sh ... which I call from test.sh .. I have export statements for my environments... If I put these in the test.sh directly .. and logout and login.. the PATH is correctly set... but calling the Startup.sh from test.sh doesn't.. what am I doing wrong ? [10:00] doesn't set teh path correctly.. it seems to only work if I place the contents of Startup.sh into test.sh rather than calling Startup.sh from test.sh... anyone following ? [10:01] Hi, is it normal that my compiz desktop cube lags like hell (I got a GTX 280)? [10:01] JenniferB2: Make it ". /home/etc" [10:01] A dot in front of the script name [10:02] Otherwise it runs in a subshell, so the environment doesn't carry across [10:02] incandenza: ook.. have to log out and in now :) [10:04] it worked ! [10:04] finally :) [10:04] :) [10:04] (10.10 on a macbook) how can I edit the GRUB menu so it'll automatically choose the first option?

[10:10] i cant install new software [10:11] i pick in "install" and it doesnt work [10:11] Have you tried an "sudo apt-get install package" in a terminal ? [10:11] I'd like to start rtorrent by one user and restart lighttpd by another right after boot, how to achieve it? [10:12] hi guys...quick question, if i can only get through on Port 80...could I still have ssh on port 22 and have iptables forward it when i connect to 80? [10:12] ah, and I guess it has to be "screen rtorrent" [10:12] I have just installed 5.2.10 but when i try and view a php file it trys to download it??? [10:13] Dirty_Snipe, have you restarted php and installed the correct modules into apache2? [10:13] *apache2 [10:13] I have restarted it [10:13] Montoko: You can use corkscrew if youre behind some kind of proxy [10:13] it lists php as there [10:13] someone game me the site link for broadcom help a while back what was it? [10:13] its the modules...try installing libapache2-mod-php5 [10:14] !broadcom| cael [10:14] cael: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [10:14] ty [10:14] k will have a look [10:14] cael, np [10:14] :) apache2 needs to be configured to know PHP is there and it can use it [10:14] while im getting that what do i need to play encrypted DVD's? [10:14] Dirty_Snipe, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP [10:15] Monotoko: im not using the default pgp 5.3 [10:15] galadude: any results? [10:15] php* [10:15] rkokkelk, corkscrew? and Dirty_Snipe, its still part php5 [10:16] *of [10:16] CoCorkscrew is a small applications many used to use ssh through proxy with only port 80 enabled [10:16] dth, nope, i'm on my schools network, and it's taking forever, it's soon finished though [10:17] rkokkelk, ahhh! excellent :D [10:17] ok [10:17] apt-catcher at home luckily ;D [10:17] any idea? my dvd of spaceballs refuses to play [10:17] ok, I don't have to restart lighttpd... so all I have to do on startup is "screen rtorrent" as user x and then detach the screen - can it be done automatically? [10:18] #poky [10:18] Hi, is it normal that my compiz desktop cube lags like hell (I got a GTX 280)? [10:18] alkamid: yes [10:18] dth, what do I look for? [10:18] screen -dmS "myscreen" andthecommand [10:18] that will launch the command in a named screen and detach atomatically [10:18] Another quick question...do I need to have Xorg on and enabled to use apps with x11 forwarding over SSH? [10:18] dth, okay it's finished now, busy figuring stuff out [10:18] alkamid: sure use your user's crontab (with @reboot) and see « man screen » about "-d -m" [10:19] Monotoko: the side that you want to show the windows = yes, the side that just runs the application = no [10:19] salve [10:20] dth, excellent thank you :D [10:21] dth, oh damn, this brings my back to another problem, my backslash dosn't work [10:21] galadude, cant you copy one: \ ? [10:21] Monotoko: ok installed libapache2-mod-php5 and restarted apache server. Still trying to download php file instead of viewing it [10:21] my console dont let me install new software [10:21] how do I lock the screen at intervals [10:21] luis_: what error does it give you? [10:22] "preferences > screensaver" doesn't exist for me [10:22] it says E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. [10:22] When I try to email a message from my mail server to my google account I get an error about using sendmail as a relay server how can I fix this. [10:22] monotoko, i guess [10:22] Dirty_Snipe, next thing to look at is your apache configuration....make sure the PHP sections are linking to the right places [10:22] luis_, then run that? [10:22] how can I set my smtpd to allow me to relay messages from other computers .... [10:22] Wakko10Warner, #ubuntu-server or #httpd [10:23] Dirty_Snipe, if you want to put your config in pastebin and let me have a look, just say] [10:23] please? anyone know why my dvd wont play? [10:23] sounds like a good idea. Which config file you need [10:23] cael, its a driver issue [10:24] what am i missing then? [10:24] how can i replace capslock with backslash? [10:24] Monotoko: sounds like a good idea. Which config file you need [10:24] cael a driver, a small software engine [10:24] yea.. i get the fact im missing a Driver. but what do i need to install and where? [10:24] hi all [10:24] simple easy question ANYBODY command for stopping EVERYTHING related to network manager in ubuntu 10.10 and to stop it from coming back?

[10:26] hey cael did you install restricted extras? [10:26] yes [10:26] hello [10:26] !list [10:26] This is not a file sharing channel (or network); be sure to read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » [10:26] but havent restarted [10:26] jrib: Not needing to uninstall, i need to do some lower level wireless driver testing (i.e. packet injecting etc) [10:26] pleez ho to add another language to the keyboard in lubuntu 10.10 === ivica is now known as ivisaf [10:26] i got the same issues [10:27] gh0st: that's the answer to your question, if you have a different question, just ask it === Nub_Cake is now known as Dirty_Snipe [10:27] gh0st: or do you mean to stop it from coming back until you restart? [10:27] jrib: precisley === Monotoko is now known as Daniel2 [10:27] gh0st: probably « sudo service network-manager stop » [10:28] k back [10:28] do i haveto restart after installing the restricted extras? [10:28] hi people. how do you trim whole lines in a text file on bash? any one-line-scripts, please? ) [10:28] jrib: wow "services" now? hmmm odd! ;D [10:28] ive done many a time and still cant play dvd [10:28] gh0st: that's been around for years [10:28] jrib: thank you!! [10:28] Dirty_Snipe, awesome...go into /etc/apache2/mods-enabled and put the output of "ls -la" into pastebin :) [10:29] (its still me, diff alias) [10:29] pleez ho to add another language to the keyboard in lubuntu 10.10 [10:29] Daniel2: kk will grab it now === james is now known as Guest34001 [10:30] Daniel2: dont see a ls-la [10:30] Dirty_Snipe, are you in the terminal? [10:31] naa [10:31] I need you to run "ls -la" [10:31] but if your in the GUI [10:31] caelcael yes u do [10:31] just tell me if php5.conf is there [10:31] cael of course! [10:31] Daniel2: yea thats there [10:31] right, open php5.load and tell me what that says (should just be a line) [10:32] then brb. [10:32] hey Balsaq ive installed restricted extras and restarted but still no joy [10:32] cael we will be waiting [10:32] Daniel2: LoadModule php5_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so [10:32] linuxrules its a friver issue [10:32] driver* [10:33] but i can still burn ISOs [10:33] and run live cd/dvds [10:33] linuxrules i would contact the dvd manufacturer and ask them which of the drivers works best with linux [10:33] ok [10:33] Dirty_Snipe, run this in the terminal and tell me what it outputs: [ -f /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so ] && echo "File exists" || echo "File does not exists" [10:33] i want to host a file temporarily so my friend can download it from my computer. i understand i may have to set up portforwarding on the router. But how do i set it the file on ubuntu and open the piort and stuff? [10:34] bilz...you need to choose a protocol [10:34] ok - so ive got an ASUS laptop - it should be an ASUS drive? [10:34] Daniel2: File exists [10:34] Daniel2, http? i just want someone to connect to me, download, then i can close it off again [10:34] bilz, HTTP (normal web service) or FTP...it might be easier just to upload the file somewhere [10:34] Bilz: do you already have a web server installed? [10:34] cael linuxrules install VLC Media Player [10:34] jrib, no [10:35] i installed my mail server using this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixCompleteVirtualMailSystemHowto [10:35] Daniel2, maybe, but i guess its a learning process [10:35] Dirty_Snipe, reboot your computer....by all intents and purposes it should be working [10:35] why dont you create a user for them on your pc for them to ssh into it ? [10:35] bilz: you should do [10:35] but i cannot login, and i have this error in mail.log [10:35] Nov 1 11:32:38 infoserver imapd: chdir kh@decoit.dk/: No such file or directory [10:35] Nov 1 11:32:38 infoserver imapd: kh@decoit.dk: No such file or directory [10:35] Daniel2, Dirty_Snipe: the link ubottu has on !lamp has a troubleshooting section that deals with this issue, have you checked it out? [10:35] but of course :3 Balsaq i default to a mix of that and MPC on windows. [10:35] I got a problem with gnome-do. Is there an IRC channel around for Do help? [10:35] /home/vmail is empty, which steps could i have missed in that guide [10:35] http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-play-dvd-under-ubuntu-linux [10:36] bilz, run: sudo apt-get install apache2 [10:36] that will set up your web server [10:36] jrib: i havnt seen it. [10:36] cael http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-play-dvd-under-ubuntu-linux [10:36] cool - thnks i'll brb and check that that out. already got VLC [10:36] doing that now. [10:36] bilz are you trying to install a lamp server? [10:36] on port 80...you will just need to tell the router to forward over there...then place the file in /var/www (may need to change the permissions before you can put something in there) [10:36] will reboot server brb [10:36] Bilz: well you could transfer it through ssh or another easy way is to just run "python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000" and then tell your friend your ip. If he visits your_ip:8000 in a browser he'll get a list of the files in the directory where you ran the python command (assuming you've take care of the router issues) [10:37] im trying to do it as well, am i to understand we have to setup them whole lamp process. Unlike windows where you just have wamp? [10:37] jrib, thats exactly the sort of idea i wanted! [10:37] that outta do it cael and linuxrules [10:37] dewyface, I think hes just after a simple server [10:37] me too :) [10:37] but a local server [10:37] i am trying to install ironahk [10:37] one thing still for me being an windows user Balsaq .. is getting over how to copy/Paste. the key combos arent the same in linux.

However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) [10:39] am i doing something wrong when i install 10.10 install seems to go fine but when its complete and has to restart i get big black scren with lots of errors [10:39] scotsguy, what are the errors?

[11:09] Salem IL, USA [11:10] somehow if i open my Documents under Places then it opens Banshee instead of Nautilus [11:10] i think i'm not come from mars :) [11:10] burhan: where are the logs located? [11:10] I already tried changing my preffered applications [11:10] does anyone have another suggestions? [11:10] Dirty_Snipe: /var/logs [11:10] burhan: nvm i think i found it [11:10] burhan, I have done so, however, what confuses me is the network settings, gateway etc, I've got all that ffrom my ISP and from what I can see it is correct, yet I still can't ping [11:11] amarcolino: how many interfaces do you have on your machine? [11:11] http://speedtest.net/ was what i used for a speed test [11:12] burhan: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/GDLmJbHH [11:12] burhan, one interface [11:12] amarcolino: and how many IPs did you assign to it? [11:12] Anyone got any idea why my top panel now looks like this http://i.imgur.com/Ilvzj.png and how I can fix it? [11:13] morning. [11:13] Dirty_Snipe: re-install php5 on your machine, your modules are corrupt. [11:13] i got a question. :O anyone NOT afk? [11:13] Hi [11:13] burhan, one ip to the machine and another to the router leaving two ips left for whatever occasion [11:13] I need help installing xampp on my ubuntu vps!!! [11:14] yoshilove: good morning?? on my place, night [11:14] is there a sudo command or something like that to open preferences/administration via a custom launcher? [11:14] I cant get mysql to start [11:14] burhan: whats the best way to flush it all out [11:14] hi all. I have a parallel to/from usb convertir with this kind of problems : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=797789&page=2 . Tried things mentionned, nothig better, Any ideas ? [11:14] cbush15, use http://vpsbible.com [11:14] cbush15, is there something on the port? [11:14] burhan: hmm i might just start from scratch [11:14] Dirty_Snipe, hii === leon is now known as Guest80654 [11:14] let me check port [11:15] Daniel2: lol hi again [11:15] what is the port? [11:15] Dirty_Snipe, any luck? [11:15] nope [11:15] amarcolino: if you have an external router, you assign all your public IPs to it, and then use NATing to assign one of those to your machine. Unless you are directly connected (by the wire) to the ISP, you don't assign the "real" IP to your computer. [11:15] Daniel2: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/GDLmJbHH [11:15] cbush15, 3306 [11:16] Somebody told me about compiling a CPU would make my apps run faster, I am about to re install Ubuntu 10.10 and I want to know how to do that, I cant find anything in Google [11:16] No nothing is on it [11:16] I tryed to go in browser to it [11:16] * MK-BB I'm off to explore the horrible land of windows 7... [11:16] Licuadora: you don't compile a CPU. [11:16] Oh, ignore my previous question, fixed it [11:16] can anyone recommend anything I can do/install on ubuntu so I can ssh from one computer to another? do i just need an ssh server? [11:16] Licuadora: a CPU can not be compiled. [11:16] Licuadora: what do you want ?? [11:16] Daniel2: im wondering if a restore from clean server snapshot and try over is worth it [11:16] AdvoWork: and the client [11:16] AdvoWork, install openssh-server on one [11:16] * yoshilove seeks attention. [11:16] !ssh | AdvoWork [11:16] AdvoWork: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) [11:17] !ask | yoshilove [11:17] yoshilove: hello, what you mean ?? [11:17] Dirty_Snipe, I think it might be [11:17] yoshilove: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [11:17] AdvoWork: you need ssh client (comes with ubuntu) and ssh server on the other computer (comes with ubuntu, but you need to install it apt-get install openssh-server) - you also need an account on the remote machine. [11:17] anyone know if there's a sudo or some other terminal command to open preferences/administration via custom launcher? [11:17] Daniel2: kk see you in a few mins [11:17] Well, it's like flags, like telling the CPU to use all it's capacity for 3d graphics stuff, I am into 3d modeling [11:17] yoshilove: maybe gksu or gksudo [11:18] huh? [11:18] Licuadora: Sounds like crap, best way to get better 3d graphics is a better graphics card [11:18] I have also tried to reinstall it [11:18] it's my second day with ubuntu, not following a thing, lol. [11:18] Licuadora: in order to do that, you'd need the source of whatever you want to compile and the recompile it with the appropriate flags. [11:18] burhan, that explains a lot I am most used to private ips 198.168.etc.etc. How do I go about assigning the ips to my router dont think I saw an option to assign more than one ip [11:18] hi [11:18] Hi guys can somebody help me with ubuntu trying to connect to the windows share but keeps asking for user and password.. [11:18] comb123: No, it's not for gaming or stuff like that, it is for rendering 3d models [11:18] anyone knows how to make grub not show all kernels but instead just a simple boot windows and boot linux [11:18] ? [11:18] amarcolino: depends on the router to be honest. Look up the documentation. [11:18] yoshilove: preferences/administration are a menu. it cannot be "launched". maybe you want to rephrase the question [11:18] yoshilove: you need sudo access on custom launcher ?? [11:18] root@submitdirect:~# cd /opt/lampp [11:18] root@submitdirect:/opt/lampp# ./lampp startmysql [11:19] XAMPP: Starting MySQL...

[11:19] biberao: uninstall the kernels you do not longer need [11:19] i wanted to add a custom launcher to the top panel. [11:19] so i could strip off all the unnecessary stuff. [11:19] my gnome menu is gone. can anyone help me get it back? [11:19] ???? [11:19] Licuadora: Graphics cards are for better rendering of 3d graphics, the gpu processes all the 3d data, they are not only for gaming, they just work well for gaming since games use 3d graphics [11:19] and just an icon instead. [11:19] erUSUL but the issue it happens the same [11:19] yoshilove: right click on the panel. choose add to panel [11:19] no simple lines [11:19] Ola, perhaps maybe someone here can help me out. On my install of 10.04 I have configured ipv6, all seems to be okay, but for some reason the server keeps adding 'default via fe80::1:1' to my routes, which seems to mess up my ipv6 config [11:19] yeah, i didn't realize there was the command to change it's icon. [11:19] yoshilove: yes, exactly..you can modify it [11:19] thanks. o/ [11:20] burhan, thanks that saved me a lot of time, going to check it out [11:20] hi everyboy [11:20] conb123, The technology still uses the CPU for 3d modeling, at least in opensource [11:20] i've got a fast question, how cn i reduce space between gnome desktop icone ? [11:20] how can I install windows xp on my harddrive while ubuntu is installed? [11:20] Licuadora: unless you use a CUDA-enabled card :) [11:21] intick: ...drag them away from each other? :P [11:21] easy_enemy: use vmware and install it in a virtual machine [11:21] Anyway... So, I need the source code to compile Ubuntu and flag the CPU, eh? [11:21] easy_enemy: just install your windows...likes usually [11:21] Licuadora: Yes the CPU plays a part in rendering 3D graphics yes, but the majority of the load will be passed onto the GPU [11:21] Licuadora: no, compiling Ubunutu won't do you any good. [11:21] Licuadora: you need to compile the actual program (like say Blender). [11:22] burhan, Oh, I get it [11:22] Licuadora: because Ubuntu doesn't do any rendering. [11:22] If my windows partion still exists but there is no grub option how can I boot to windows? [11:22] my windows cd wont run.. once I open my PC it goes directly to GRUB.. even thou I press f12 or DEL it wont respond [11:22] has anyone tested broadband net connection in ubuntu 10.10? [11:22] :o would take ages t do taht ! [11:22] has anyone tested dsl broadband net connection in ubuntu 10.10? [11:22] has anyone tested dsl broadband internet connection in ubuntu 10.10? [11:22] burhan, Does Ubuntu takes advantage of all of the CPU features? [11:22] C_hris: add it to grub :) [11:22] hi is it posbule moveing my HDD to an new pc i have 9.10 10.04 and kubntu [11:23] what's anyones alternative for WLM? [11:23] !alternatives [11:23] Why can Ubuntu KDE access windows share and Ubuntu Gnome just keeps asking for user and pw? [11:23] To change the default applications system-wide, use 'sudo update-alternatives --all' in a terminal. [11:23] Licuadora: again, Linux doesn't need to take advantage of "all" the CPU features. For example, things like PAE which are useful are available in separate kernels; things like MMX/MMX2/SSE/SSE2 don't really apply to linux. [11:23] intick: actually - as far as I know, you can't reduce the spacing. It's a stupid limitation in GNOME. [11:23] !equivalents > yoshilove [11:23] yoshilove, please see my private message [11:24] hi is it posbule moveing my HDD to an new pc i have 9.10 10.04 and kubntu [11:24] burhan, cheers, does that account need to be in a certain group? [11:24] I reallly don't want to reinstall Ubuntu all over again. I deleted the NetworkManager because it stoped working - I had a red signal on the icon - [11:24] !ftpd [11:24] Hello, how can I replace a program by starting an other one which is the same? [11:24] FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd, MuddleFTPd, wzdftpd - Graphical front-ends: PureAdmin, GProftpd (for GNOME), KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP [11:24] RobbieAcePreshaw: generally that works just fine, ubuntu discovers most things upon boot. [11:24] AdvoWork: nope, just needs a valid shell. [11:24] Now I do not have any internet in my PC [11:24] !ftp > hyperstream [11:24] hyperstream, please see my private message [11:24] Hi all. I have problem with locating iso's mount point. I just clicked on it in nautilus and it mounted somewhere thou I can't find it in 'mount' output.

[11:25] mmm i ve bein able to do some cool thing with gconf editor like text limitation under icon ect.. but didn tfind anything about spacing icons :/ [11:25] Is there a way to make Ubuntu recongnize my PCI wifi card again? [11:25] Whats the default ftpd for ubuntu ? or preferred standard? [11:25] Licuadora: networkmanager is just an interface, deleting it won't delete the drivers for your wifi card. Just run the hardware driver wizard again. [11:26] burhan, How do I do that? [11:26] there's an option in the System menu ... forgot where exactly. [11:26] hi someone speak french?

[11:27] guys how can I uninstall ubuntu? [11:27] hyperstream: if you want truly minimal, the openssh server has built in support for SFTP. [11:27] cvrse. let me try that [11:27] easy_enemy: reboot your machine with the install media of whatever you want. [11:28] hyperstream: since FTP is plain text, I personally avoid it whenever I can. [11:28] ummmmmmm. [11:28] cvrse, Unknown instance [11:28] burhan, agreed :) [11:28] cvrse, *sigh* I am gonna have to re install [11:28] Dr_Willis: can i ask you question about git?

[11:29] cvrse, yes [11:29] SO I tried adding windows to menu.lst it didn't show up? [11:29] Dr_Willis: #git having hangover [11:29] Licuadora, what interface is it? wlan0?

[11:30] Licuadora, have u tried manually bringing up the connection? or specifying it in /etc/network/interfaces? [11:30] me_: easy way is to use the terminal.. 'wine /path/to/cd/whatever.exe' === batatrax is now known as Batatrax === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [11:30] Indicator Applet Session one, is there a way? [11:31] burhan, what should I add for windows? [11:31] Jiwe: "It doesn't work" is quite a useless description of your problem. === phnom_ is now known as phnom [11:31] C_hris: depends on where your Windows partition is.

[11:32] juk: run the sync command again [11:32] me_: its some odd security issue/feature they got in wine. it wont run a exe unless its executable.. and a cd by default does not have files mounted as executable.. catch 22. [11:32] Jiwe: Don't /msg me. [11:32] Dr_Willis: Still thank You for advice. [11:32] Dr_Willis, Whats default? [11:32] If I cant do that I would just want to remove ubuntu [11:32] burhan, how do I find out? [11:32] burhan: all over again? [11:32] cvrse, I have : auto lo iface lo inet loopback [11:32] !grub [11:32] me_: its been mentioned in the forums and a few other places as a silly bug.. no idea if it will ever change. [11:32] grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. [11:32] And if I restart my computer, problems gone.

[11:34] sounds like a dhcp issue dshbusiness [11:34] Licuadora, thats right, just testing something [11:34] burhan: NO. network still working. I just cannot get some certain website. For example, www.google.com. [11:34] Help, please for MESS 0.140 for ubuntu download or ppa ? [11:34] me_: run Windows in a virtual machine, that will avoid these "bugs" with wine. [11:34] Hi [11:34] dshbusiness: what is the error you get? [11:35] burhan: time out [11:35] erUSUL: thank you, dear erUSUL [11:35] dshbusiness: this sounds like a restriction from your network and has nothing to do with Ubuntu. [11:35] nebula: why not use a PPA if it exists... err.. that is downloading the debs.. so not sure what youmean by 'download' [11:35] I newly installed ubuntu 10.10 but it havn't xorg file. can anyone help me? [11:36] Alinn: how did you install it? [11:36] burhan: Perhaps. I can ping www.google.com, but could not get the page. Other pages are ok. [11:36] can I run .exe files on terminal? [11:36] Alinn: one is not needed by default normally. X auto configures for themost part. [11:36] does "@reboot screen -dmS "myscreen" rtorrent" seem like a proper crontab entry? [11:36] Ok so that guide says run sudo update-grub2 [11:36] Dr_Willis, ops sorry okey ...but please help me >? [11:36] which doesn't detect windows [11:36] burhan: from CD. fresh install. [11:36] what can I do? [11:37] nebula: help you with what? if mess has a ppa you want to use.. then use it. [11:37] Alinn: the desktop CD? [11:37] burhan: yes [11:37] Alinn: okay, then what do you need the xorg file for? :) [11:37] Jiwe: Well, you maybe didn't use the right ones. Check the samba logs, and the event logs on the Windows machine. [11:37] dshbusiness: the only thing that could affect this is ipv6 for DNS lookups. [11:37] dshbusiness: you could disable that. [11:38] burhan: I use ipv4. Let me have a try. Thanks [11:39] dshbusiness: ipv6 is enabled by default and this can cause web browsing issues if your DNS resolver is not ipv6 enabled. [11:39] jink: I think i know my own username and pw I tried on PclinuxOS and it worked fine there it just doesn't on ubuntu [11:39] burhan: how we can disable ipv6 ? [11:39] !ipv6 [11:39] For an introduction to IPv6 and information on tunneling IPv6 through IPv4 connections, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPv6 | To disable IPv6 see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4 [11:39] Dr_Willis: burhan:my graphic is onboard. resolution is 1154*864 by default. i want to change it to 1280*1024 but in the System>Preferences>Monitors i can't find 1280*1024 [11:40] burhan: could this take effect immediately after I disabled ipv6? [11:40] Is there a program that will uninstall ubuntu? [11:40] dshbusiness: if this was the issue, then yes. [11:40] Licuadora, are u using WPA-PSK? [11:40] Do any of you have some knowlage about the network-manager Ceni [11:40] need help with netbook edition environment. i cant see the icons in the top or side panel. [11:40] easy_enemy: uninstall ubuntu and install what in its place? [11:40] Do any of you have some knowlage about the network-manager Ceni [11:40] burhan: I hope so. Thanks. [11:40] ok I am running lubuntu, I don't think grub2 is default [11:40] I think its grub [11:41] windows.. [11:41] Jiwe: So, what about the logs? [11:41] windows used to be in the grub menu but now it is not [11:41] easy_enemy: just boot from the Windows install DVD and format the hard drive. [11:41] Do any of you have some knowlage about the network-manager Ceni [11:41] My computer wont boot from CD [11:41] jink: i dont know what i am suppose to look in there can you tell me? [11:42] it goes to GRUB right away [11:42] easy_enemy: how did you install ubuntu? [11:42] does "@reboot screen -dmS "myscreen" rtorrent" seem like a proper crontab entry? [11:42] Something like "permission denied" or "Invalid username or password" or whatever. You can't expect me to do your debugging. Use your brain and common sense. [11:42] Jiwe: ^^^ [11:42] alkamid: not to me. [11:43] jstoone: any trouble with network-manager ?? [11:43] burhan: Oh, it seems that I have to restart my computer after I disable ipv6? [11:43] burhan, why not? [11:43] dshbusiness: could be. [11:43] download it from the website.. a year ago.. burn image into cd.. boot from cd install.. [11:44] easy_enemy: check your bios hasn't defaulted back to boot from hdd first [11:45] burhan: but things will be right after I have restart it, wether or not I have disabled ipv6. perhaps I have to wait for 2 full days to prove this will work : ) [11:45] ill give it a try and ill get back to you.. thanks [11:45] burhan: Can you help me? [11:45] hi all im back [11:45] Hi, I have an ubuntu PC which has a configured bridge. How can I get rid of it? On the internet I only find ways to create them... [11:46] jink: i dont know what u want im lost [11:46] alkamid: if rtorrent is not in your path, it won't work. [11:46] Dynamite. [11:46] dshbusiness: again, I don't think this has to do with ipv6 - it is the only thing that could possibly affect browsing. I think this is a restriction from your ISP. [11:47] Alinn: are you on a laptop? [11:47] burhan, what about screen? [11:47] burhan: No. in desktop [11:48] help me the best emulator mame stable and perfect .....10 x [11:48] I have restored from a server snapshot and ran through the instructions at http://randyfay.com/node/63 . Php is now working. But I have the following question. What is the best way to install these modules without buggering it all up http://paste.ubuntu.com/523804/ [11:48] alkamid: for crontab entries, I generally put the entire path to the executable because path information is generally not available. [11:48] Alinn: System > Administration > Additional Drivers [11:49] Im also going to create a new snapshot with php working so I go an inbetween restore point. :) [11:49] got* [11:49] burhan: Oh, I wish this will take effect. If it is a restriction from my isp, why I can visit most other page, except only a few pages? [11:50] burhan: Graphic is onboard (SIS) [11:50] dshbusiness: who knows, maybe it could be a buggy implementation? [11:50] something keeps rewriting my /etc/resolv.conf, what should i do? [11:51] meero: edit your DHCP client settings to ignore DNS resolvers. [11:51] 172.16.1.0 what subnet mask is that? 255.255.255.0? [11:51] burhan: : ) It make me headache. I hope I can visit google 48 hours later. many thanks! [11:51] Alinn: did it previously work at 1280x1024? [11:51] hi [11:53] hi, I have messed up grub installation. I've ran grub-install from grub legacy on root directory with grub 2 [11:53] burhan: what should i change in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf ... to stop rewriting? [11:53] Dirty_Snipe: you have two other options - either sudo tasksel install lamp-server; or use the free zend server which has this all bundled together along with a nice GUI to manage it. [11:53] got console only after boot [11:54] burhan: yes. i did this in xorg file with this guide: http://translate.google.com/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwiki.ubuntu.ir%2FChangeResolutionwithXorgEdit%3Fhighlight%3D%2528%25D8%25B1%25D8%25B2%25D9%2588%25D9%2584%25D9%2588%25D8%25B4%25D9%2586%2529 [11:54] arghhh. [11:54] then I installed grub2 in same manner, but still console...grub2 one now [11:54] hi anyone using a console-based ICQ-client? Any suggestions? [11:54] what's up with gDesklets?? [11:54] i installed it, but it wont start up. [11:55] KingChillbill: haven't used it myself, but I've heard irrsi is the best [11:55] Oh [11:55] ICQ, not IRC [11:55] Nevermind :P [11:55] Eltu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [11:55] ... [11:55] Hey guys, does anyone have any experience with MPD + Sonata? [11:55] anyone @ gdesklets part? [11:56] hello! my partition / are 100% how can i know where are full? [11:56] meero: you have two options - you can either add your own custom DNS servers (in addition to those that come from the DHCP server) or completely ignore the ones coming from the DHCP server. What option would you like? [11:56] burhan: Thanks, Ill take a snapshot then have a peek at zend server [11:56] Eltu: no problem, irssi is great for irc but there some friends that dont even know about irc [11:56] where is robot [11:56] hello [11:56] fdisk gives me this :http://paste.ubuntu.com/523807/ [11:57] cael hows that dvd === ubuntu is now known as bounty [11:57] pr0mised: Applications > Accessories > Disk Usage Analyzer [11:57] Is there somthing wrong with my NTFS partion? [11:57] test [11:57] burhan: i have my own dns server on the same machine, and when /etc/resolv.conf is rewritten, it creates dns querry loop - annoing :-( [11:57] who know the robot [11:58] meero: so you want to ignore the DNS resolver coming from the DHCP server? [11:58] Can kimpanel works properly on kUbuntu? [11:59] Alinn: /etc/xorg/Xorg.conf should be it, but are you sure it doesn't need specific hardware drivers? [11:59] * yoshilove seeks attention again. [12:00] burhan: to ignore , would be better [12:00] I am new here === _nertil is now known as nertil [12:00] burhan: I didn't install any driver and i changed it. [12:00] meero: remove "domain-name-servers" from the request line. [12:00] !guidelines | shucheng [12:00] shucheng: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines [12:00] Alinn: then edit Xorg.conf [12:01] How do I make lp or evince print the same thing two times per paper? (like -o number-up=2, but repeating the first page on the second) [12:02] * yoshilove sobs in a corner. [12:02] burhan: u mean remove "request ... .... domain-name-servers" ? [12:02] burhan: or prepend .... [12:03] burhan: Thanks a lot :) [12:04] what's the best way to find out why my CPU usage is spiking? [12:04] using ps/top or a process manager [12:04] isn't showing me [12:04] meero: remove only "domain-name-servers" if you remove the entire request line, your DHCP client won't work :P [12:04] im getting masive spikes from like 0, 32 60 95 and its very annoying [12:04] Kalidarn: how do you know it is? [12:04] because i can feel it is [12:05] and the plugin i have in KDE is showing me that its spiking on cores [12:05] i can see it in the graph its spiking on different cores [12:05] Kalidarn: maybe its your hard disk ... generally hard disk read problems are the main cause of slow response. [12:05] its not doing I/O [12:05] and im running off a quite new OCZ Vertex 2 SSD [12:05] Kalidarn: my machine runs at 99% CPU all the time without problems in responsiveness - however, try copying 30GB of files around, and then it slows down. [12:06] hi all [12:06] burhan: i understand, but there are "request" and "prepend" directives , both containing domain-name-servers [12:06] burhan: im not copying files and its just becomes all laggy when the cpu spikes [12:06] Xorg appears to jump to maybe 8% [12:06] meero: the prepend one will be commented out (start with a #) [12:06] but that shouldnt cause massive spikes [12:06] Kalidarn: does it spike or stay at 100%? [12:06] burhan: thanks man :-) i try it out [12:06] in the graph that shows each core and the activity [12:06] i find i get lag just typing sometimes [12:07] can someone help me out with some permission issues that I am experiencing [12:07] Kalidarn: what's your CPU and how much memory? [12:07] I have apache setup, and the default dir is /var/www [12:07] looi have 6GB of RAM in tripple channel and a i7 930 [12:07] I am able to serv pages as long as the user and group permissions are www-data:www-data [12:07] i do not get this problem in windows [12:08] do you get it with gnome? =] [12:08] the issue I am having is I am trying to set it up so I can upload from ftp to the directory [12:08] burhan: i haven't tried :P [12:08] changing desktop environment is not the answer [12:08] ciao [12:08] i want to find out what is causing it [12:08] and then try to fix it [12:08] Kalidarn: the other answer is your computer setup is crap :P [12:08] burhan: your a fucking noob [12:08] apache is giving me an permission denied error due to the different permissions the files are taking when being uploaded from ftp [12:08] that is not a solution :P [12:08] sorry [12:09] how would I go about setting it up so apache will be able to serv the files that are uploaded from ftp ? [12:09] if your going to open your mouth or bother typing be constructive [12:09] 172.16.1.0 what subnet mask do i need for this ip? [12:09] im asking for ways to try to diagnose what process is taxing the CPU [12:09] Kalidarn: I'm a noob? You are the one who can't make your SuperComputer work. [12:09] Kalidarn: you use ps or top [12:09] burhan: your telling me to change desktop environment, and that does not fix the bug [12:09] yeah i have burhan its not showing the process either [12:09] Kalidarn: if its a bug, then its in some app in your DM. [12:10] the only process that seems to be spiking to say 10% is Xorg [12:10] and i doubt it's that [12:10] Hi [12:10] Kalidarn: are you running top as root? [12:10] also i have bugger all open :P [12:10] burhan: yes [12:10] I got a HP EliteBook 8540w here.. [12:10] hello [12:10] and Linux, regardless of distro wont boot or install [12:10] I just get a garbled screen [12:10] Kalidarn: are you running beta hardware drivers for your video card? [12:10] nope, nvidia proprietary [12:10] and i've disabled blur [12:11] actually, I can boot up a live distro, but I still get the garbled screen [12:11] the problem is it's obviously something graphical [12:11] but i doubt it's Xorg itself. [12:11] databits: change the permission mask. It seems default permissions on that directory are what causing your problem. Should be 655 for files. [12:11] hello [12:12] hey guys. hope someone is willing to help a *nix noob. i've just checked in some source through subversion. where would it be placed? [12:12] Kalidarn: try rolling back to a different version of the driver. Any "EE" in your Xorg log? [12:12] I can get the files to work if I constantly change the permissions [12:12] http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/lX-UhvOUTGyitq6K9JywLyhGwsMxDdNzEODX2Rnfok4?feat=directlink [12:12] Sniffy: checked in or out? [12:12] is this http://ubuntuforums.org/ the major forum for (k)(x)(l)ubuntu? [12:12] checked in [12:12] but I want to set it up so I can just upload, then proceed to rock and roll [12:12] doesn't seem to specify where it actually is [12:12] just the directory pathing [12:13] probably obvious to someone that isn't a noob [12:14] is this http://ubuntuforums.org/ the major forum for (k)(x)(l)ubuntu? [12:15] Sniffy: in the repository's file location. Are you the owner of the repo? [12:15] databits: what user are using to upload the files? [12:15] right now Xorg is idling on between 20% CPU and 18% [12:15] i'd say its some graphical app causing it [12:15] kwin is on about 4-6 that's fine, and a few apps ive got open every now and again use 1 or 2% or maybe 4 [12:15] somewhere in between [12:15] Kalidarn: by lag you mean your mouse doesn't move, keyboard doesn't work? [12:15] Kalidarn: or stuff doesn't open as quickly. [12:15] i've tried checking logs but it hasn't revealed anything incorrectly occuring [12:15] Kalidarn: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [12:15] burhan: by lag i mean just general unresponsiveness [12:15] burhan: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [12:15] lagging during input [12:15] Kalidarn: if you've eliminated the hardware driver issue, and hard disk issue - then the only other thing is that some app has a memory leak bug, which causes things to spike. To debug that is beyond my scope. Maybe check KDE forums to see if this is a known issue? [12:15] burhan i guess? [12:16] burhan: yeah i have done googling around as i suspected it was KDE [12:16] either kwin, or graphics driver [12:16] Sniffy: Did you setup the repository from where you checked out the files? [12:16] basically dude i just typed "svn co svn://svn.zoy.org/caca/pwntcha/trunk pwntcha [12:16] " into the terminal [12:16] however, i was only able to find that blur effect causes a problem when used in conjunction with nvidia proprietary drivers [12:16] i might try changing to noveau [12:16] Sniffy: that is checking out not checking in, which is what I asked you the first time. [12:17] Is there a dedicated IRC channel for Banshee help/support? [12:17] bah sorry [12:17] i might also try asking in #xorg [12:17] Sniffy: your files are in 'pwntcha' [12:17] Eltu: try asking in #gnome [12:18] how can i update 9.10 to 10.4 without the internet? ive tried to install from live USB but it always crashed after keyboard selection, no cd drive [12:18] Hi all [12:18] where is pwntcha? :/ [12:19] Sniffy: in the same directory where you where when you typed the command [12:19] ah [12:19] i'm an idiot [12:19] thanks for your patience [12:20] no problem. [12:22] anyone able to get svn://svn.zoy.org/caca/pwntcha/trunk pwntcha [12:22] to compile? [12:24] Is anyone aware of a good project planner that integrates with evolution or other calendar/tasks manager? [12:24] cdavis: most cloud-based ones will - since they all support iCal universally. [12:30] can someone help me out with some permission issues with apache please [12:30] please message [12:31] !msg | databits [12:31] databits: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. [12:31] databits: Maybe try #ubuntu-server instead? [12:31] when I ftp files to /var/www directory apache is unable to access files. I have to go in and manualy change permissions. I want to get around this. [12:31] hi guys ! i've installed parcelite (clipboard) and when i copy somthing from an application and want to past it, it does nothing, i must go on the tray parcelite icon and select what i've copied then past .. pretty long for a simple copy/past [12:32] databits: what about giving permissions on /var/www ? [12:32] I need to be able to have all my users that are logging onto my ftp, to be able to upload to the web directory. With apache being able to serv the files [12:32] apache is up and running correctly [12:33] but the way I am adding files to the /var/www directory is through ftp [12:33] when adding files through ftp, the files are taking ownership of that user [12:33] databits: you should find help at #ubuntu-server channel ! [12:33] none can help me plz ? [12:36] hi, I'm looking for a (gnome) screensaver that shows cpu and memory usage. Does anyone know something like it? [12:36] ciao a tutti [12:38] hi guys, just download lamp server to ubuntu using tasksel, i have made a vhosts file to point at the correct directory but im getting permissions errors does anyone have any suggesttions [12:38] hello good morning, pls what web editor is available on ubuntu line dreamweaver on windows ?

I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.10, and now rdiffbackup thinks my machine is called "localhost6.localdomain6". "hostname" reports the correct hostname. How do I fix it?

[12:43] afidegnum: If you want update version go to Updates Manager [12:44] afidegnum: sudo apt-get update [12:44] dewyface: No [12:44] dewyface: have tried to change permission ? [12:44] intick: yeah, changed permissions on the folders? [12:44] Hi... switched from openSUSE to Ubuntu 10.10 - everthing's nice, except fonts are so unbelievably ugly. Unusable without anti aliasing. Not even pretty with aa and completely different than e.g. Win. [12:44] ElNota: ? [12:44] With openSUSE that wasn't an issue. Can this be changed?

[12:46] It won't too; that's upgrade [12:46] update only will check if new updates are avaiable, reloading packages-info from repositories [12:46] dewyface: ALC [12:46] erUSUL: unfortunately, won't change a thing.

Menus etc. are fine, but take a look here: http://i.imgur.com/sQxnC.png [12:48] im so stoned [12:48] dewyface: Whats wrong with the permissions that are set out of the box?

[12:49] Hi everyone, I'm having problems getting my laptop to suspend and hibernate since I upgraded to Maverick. Does anyone have any ideas how I might troubleshoot this problem? [12:49] erUSUL: nope, Opera. Firefox misses those seemingly bold letters, but still nearly the same. [12:50] dewyface: what error are you getting ? can you view your website on your browser ? [12:50] intick: set perms to www-data [12:50] `man use_screen' mentions a `libncursest' that I can not find anywhere. Is the defaul built thread safe? Any idea? [12:50] pici: could have used out of the box but wanted to customize the location a little [12:51] Sir_Diddymus: :( really dunno what is wrong. if you changed the aa settings ( subpixel etc) and that did not change anything then i do not know what to do next [12:51] why didnt you keep default folder ?

[12:51] burhan: no only set up a debian server [12:51] for online use, i just want a local one [12:52] dewyface: well, its the same. Copy /etc/apache2/sites-available/default to /etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite, then edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite and change the paths. Finally, sudo a2ensite mysite [12:52] sadly thats exactly what i did [12:52] haha [12:52] dewyface: and what's the problem? [12:53] how to make the system more responsive when copying large amounts of small files( +30k ) [12:53] burhan: it says i dont have the right permission to view these files [12:53] +30k files [12:53] Is it possible to make Banshee play .mod and .xm files?

[12:54] ghufran: you don't need it unless you want to send and view SMS messages. === christian is now known as Guest84161 [12:55] Hello all. [12:55] burhan: any ideas? [12:55] burhan, i think i do.. i can connect using gnome-ppp but there are other features .. like calling their service number to charge my account ... or change my package settings [12:55] Roland: One option would be to renice the copy process to a higher number. [12:56] !resetpanels [12:56] To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [12:56] dewyface: where did you put the new directory and what perms does it have? [12:56] burhan, i tried installing it but i keep getting "device unavailable .." message [12:57] ghufran: I'm not aware of any Linux version of that software, but I usually put the card in my mobile to run the USSD commands. [12:57] burhan /home/dewy/projects set group to www-data then did a sudo chmod -R 2770 /home/dewy [12:57] i dont have a mobile .. its a usb stick [12:59] what's a cheap, quality mp3 player that is ubuntu compatible? [12:59] Can anyone help me please. Sound was working before but now I don't get the welcome sounds when logging in and MP3's don't have any sound either. Youtube videos play, however without any sounds. .avi .wmv etc also do not play. I'm using Ubuntu 10.10. Not sure what has happened :S [13:00] Propel, What do you mean by Ubuntu Compatible? [13:00] BernardTK, Did you do a upgrade? [13:00] No, it's fresh 10.10 install [13:00] Propel: get something from Cowen I guess :) or is that Cowan [13:00] When it was working (I know before) but when? what you were using? [13:01] umm early tonight [13:01] Propel: anyway nice players, even do open formats such as OGG and FLAC :) [13:01] was using rhythm box [13:01] wow, they do FLAC now? [13:01] i just had an old ipod [13:01] really, old. figured i should just invest in a new mp3 player, maybe also a video player. [13:01] BernardTK, Did you restart the PC ? [13:01] but without the hassle of installing itunes [13:01] I have restarted several times [13:01] Propel: yeah so get something that supports open formats :) like from the company I was recommending [13:02] It's weird [13:02] Propel: Ipod and such is not that good, vender lock in to Apple, very propritary, and that kind of thing [13:02] I'm trying to update grub to grub2. The docs & installer use a chainloader to try it out, but when I choose the chainloader entry from grub1, instead of showing the grub2 menu, it boots straight into Ubuntu [13:02] Propel: plus newer ones may not work so well with Ubuntu or other Linux distros, and so on [13:02] Reliant: why upgrade from Grub to Grub 2? [13:02] newer ipods, taht is? [13:02] I had attempted to setup MPD + Sonata, however that didn't work. Restarted my computer, and now no sound [13:03] hello [13:03] Propel: old Ipod will probably work reasonably well, others may end up being a hassle [13:03] It seems that MPD and Sonata thing is the reason of this problem BernardTK [13:03] oh i see. i might lukc out then. i have a really old ipod [13:03] Devilz_108L Yeah, but I can't understand what has changed. [13:03] Something with the drivers mostly BernardTK [13:04] damn, cowons are expensive [13:04] Devilz_108, any ideas of what I can do :S? [13:04] test [13:04] System > Administration > Hardware Drivers BernardTK , Do you see a driver related to sound? [13:04] i am thinking of buying a kindle; now i would like to know, how good it works with pdfs; is there any kind of "kindel-simulator" for ubuntu, apart from calibre? [13:04] Propel: yeah probably so, but rather worth it [13:05] Propel: not that many players support open formats :( [13:05] :/ [13:05] do you know of other brands? [13:05] Propel: not for decant players that support open formats no, but cowon is what people will normally or always recommend for this [13:05] when you mention older ipods working well, do you mean it could work well with itunes or possibly without itunes? [13:06] ahhh i see [13:06] Propel: you can't run itunes on Ubuntu or other Linux distros [13:06] Propel: you might want to look at the sony readers [13:06] well via wine, you can === v3nd3tta is now known as v3nd3tta`` [13:06] Propel: well maybe in Wine just about for an older verison if you configure properly, and then of course a Windows virtual machine would work, with enough RAM and such [13:06] Devilz_108 I don't have Hardware Drivers under Administration :S [13:06] Propel: also Itunes sucks really [13:07] oh ya? how so? [13:07] root@server01:~# gedit [13:07] (gedit:15647): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: [13:07] can you still buy stuff from itunes and DL podcasts?

[13:25] livingdaylight, Just go to Ubuntu website and download the 10.04 and before you install just jump in into live run to see if everything is working fine if it did then install while running using LIVE ;) [13:25] burhan: but i am actually using a lower version of fglrx , the higher version is supported and the lower is not [13:26] livingdaylight: I also had a similar situation where a lifetime Windows user wanted to give Ubuntu a native install, I insisted on Lucid v. Maverick due to LTS status among other reasons. [13:26] is there any rdp server which i can install on ubuntu? [13:27] abhishek: so you want me to do first using -c option ? [13:27] Before you install just go into a live CD and to test the sound just download Google Chrome and go to YouTube or download Flash for Firefox and the graphics you can download the drivers if Ubuntu offered a drivers to you [13:27] Good_D_ay: i mean just compile it something-gcc test.c [13:28] sweb: what modules are you running with apache?

[13:40] ofc u need GUI X [13:40] rudie: tunnel X over SSH, use VNC, freenx or LTSP. [13:41] can vnc let all thin clients to connect to the server simultaneously? and maintain a different sessions for each of them? [13:41] okej but what If I want only GUIs for my browser and nothing else? is there a way to get this minimal configuration? I would like to get this for the sake of performance!

I downloaded 32 bit instead of 64-bit. I have a slow connection and i was wondering if i should just go ahead or spend another day downloading [13:50] replicasex: well, generally it will have 'controller' in its name.

I've got Xubuntu installed on a flash stick and a LiveCD which happens to have GRUB on it. The PC doesn't boot from flash sticks but it will off the CD. How do I use GRUB to boot from the memstick? [13:53] ha55an: try cp -pPr it should copy links and permissions. [13:53] aha [13:53] perfect [13:53] thanks a lot [13:54] Hello all. How can I let users turn the computer off even if other users are logged in? [13:54] i have an inotifywait script that i created...http://pastebin.com/pSNgwD9b when i execute it the command line never returns...which is correct because it is waiting how do i make this run in the background and also work on reboot [13:54] it's rather irritating that my isp won't let me hook up a modem that I own and use that >_> [13:54] Uruk: Assuming you were using Lucid, and tried to upgrade to Maverick & the Live CD was Maverick, your best bet is use Lucid Live CD see if that works. [13:55] My parents share the same computer, and they often leave their sessions open. They need to be able to turn the machine off from from their respective accounts notwithstanding if the other one is logged in.

[13:55] Big ol' cable company rusivi [13:55] rusivi: maybe worth trying....although I'm not 100% sure which old distro this one was running. [13:56] llutz, But Ubuntu doesn't tell me that the users need priviledges -- it just logs them off and onto the other user's lock screen... [13:56] shadow98: run the background, append & [13:56] I have two computers here, neither have wifi cards (I didn't get one for mine and the other is rather old) ... yeah, I wanted both to be connected but apparently what I said was "charge me for another line" [13:56] both [13:56] that makes no sense [13:56] Are there any good options for full disk encryption that do not require anyone to type in a passphrase at boot time? [13:57] replicasex: I'm an ISP'er, usually they have something called a "custmod" that allows customers to use their own modem. However, it was my understanding they are required to allow it due to FCC competitive purposes. [13:57] Gatonegro: on a multiuser-OS no non-privileged user should be able to shutdown the computer [13:57] burhan: and how do i get it to run on reboot [13:57] CharlieSu: what's the point of encryption then? [13:57] shadow98: add it to the runlevel you want by creating a script and sticking it somewhere in /etc/rc.xxx [13:57] replicasex: One of these for TV CableCards called Seperable Security (US Law governing it) [13:57] CharlieSu: there are some harddrives that have on-board encryption that is OS-independent. [13:57] LjL: I'm leaving hardware at an offsite location that I don't want anyone to be able to steal data from.. [13:57] lol @ LjL [13:58] rusivi, maybe >_> I connected it up but it won't go and tries to load into their silly isp install, obviously this modem is somehow not authorized [13:58] burhan: The disk is dead. Right now I urgently need *anything* to run so I can use the internet. Normally my USB Xubuntu install serves this purpose, but this particular PC turns out not to support booting from memsticks. I'm pretty sure I can do it with a seperate bootable GRUB instance though (which I have). The question is how to do this [13:58] burhan: yes? what brands? [13:58] CharlieSu: right... i'm saying if there is no passphrase, then what's to prevent anyone from stealing data? [13:58] replicasex: Yes you have to call Charter and request that they authorize it. [13:58] gimbals: run a livecd? [13:58] CharlieSu: the one in my IBM thinkpad does, I think its a WD. [13:58] rusivi, do you know if they have to have a technician come over or? [13:58] LjL: nothing i guess.. i was wondering if there was another option or something i wasn't thinking of.. something like burhan suggested [13:58] rusivi, worried they'll just "add another line" instead and charge me double [13:58] llutz, That works fine for a school or a business. Not for a home machine. There, the computer should /warn/ the user that others are logged in, and let the user choose wether to go on or leave the computer powered but close their session. [13:58] they're real jerks [13:58] replicasex: Usually you just return any eq they gave you and they just send a signal down without a site visit. [13:59] CharlieSu: something involving smartcards or USB "cards" could work [13:59] CharlieSu: but there absolutely has to be some kind of secret/private "token", be it a passphrase or something else. [13:59] LjL: that would be sufficient. anything that works well w/ ubuntu ? [13:59] rusivi, yeah returned the second one but I need to use two different ones. I should call them but I hate talking to them >_> [13:59] burhan: LiveCDs are hard to come by without the internet. I have temporary access here but nothing that could be used to download ISOs. The bootable CD with GRUB on it is an old copy of the "Trinity Rescue Kit" which I had lying around. [13:59] LjL: how about a USB drive that is only required temporarily on boot? [13:59] CharlieSu: google Seagate Barracuda FDE [14:00] CharlieSu: yes that's what i meant by USB "card". i don't know but let me see if there is ubuntu documentation about this [14:00] LjL: something that can be removed after the system boots so that it can be put into a safe [14:00] rusivi, my expectations were basically that the whole house has the signal coming to it so why couldn't I just add an extra? :P [14:01] replicasex: That's nice you feel that way but if you want to add it, you have to call ur ISP and ask them to authorize it ;) [14:01] CharlieSu: but I think all will require some form of authentication - either boot-on password or a hardware key. IBM sells an external hard drive with a built-in numeric keypad; you have to punch in a code in order to use the disk. [14:01] rusivi, any idea if that costs money or not? Pretty sure the modem is up to snuff, it's a few years old but I think it's perfectly capable [14:01] llutz, In any case -- both of them have superuser priviledges. The problem is that when one is logged in, the other cannot power off the machine before entering the first user's account. [14:01] LjL i want my car to still have an ignition and i will keep the keys in the visor but I want the car to still be secure, WITHOUT the doors being locked or there being a stick locking the steering wheel in place ;) [14:02] gimbals: I'm not sure if USB is even accessible at grub time. [14:02] If user B tries to power off the machine, it just causes user B's account to log off and return to user A's lock screen. [14:02] burhan, you ever worked with inotify [14:02] replicasex: It's a no cost transaction. As well, if your ISP is using DOCSIS 3.0 (newest standard) and your modem is only DOCSIS 1.1 you may not get fastest speeds. Anyway you slice it, have to call and ask Charter. [14:02] burhan: i like this idea.. if it is as simiple as a hardware key it would be nice [14:02] rusivi, alas alas :( [14:03] Gatonegro: look at this, even its for pclos it might help http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php?topic=64435.0 [14:03] CharlieSu: not sure about Ubuntu, but Fedora has hardware key support for login, which can also be used for encryption. [14:03] shadow98: nope. [14:04] hmmm i grep and can see that it is running but when i modify the files i have asked it to monitor it is not executing correctly [14:04] burhan: Thanks for your help [14:04] :) [14:04] rusivi, i'm kinda curious, do they just flick a switch and have the signal ungate? [14:05] replicasex: Pretty much it's just a couple clicks of the mouse/keyboard. [14:05] Can someone look at this intoifywait script and see if you think i have anything wrong it is not executing the command i asked it. http://pastebin.com/pSNgwD9b === Kyoku is now known as Kaizen [14:06] hi [14:06] it is running in background but when i modify the files and or add something to the directory that it is looking at it will not excute csync2 -x [14:06] Hiii [14:06] llutz, Thanks, I'll try that. [14:06] CharlieSu: hmmm the only thing i've found in terms of ubuntu howto is this very old one https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemHowto5 that mentions you can put the /keys partition on external storage. not very current i'm afraid. [14:07] I setup this 10.04 to share its internet connection. now - another ubuntu 9.10 connects fine but my debian 5.0 machine won't tho its dhcp confed [14:07] pointers? [14:07] shadow98: try redirecting the output to a log file and see if that gets you anywhere. [14:08] DexterF: check the ip and gateway and dns server settings.. see if it can ping the gateway, or the other machines. [14:08] DexterF: the debian machine doesn't get access to the Internet or doesn't get an IP from the DHCP? [14:10] rusivi, I'm not usually the decision-y making one/pay the bills guy (I'm 20 hah) and I was totally distraught at them (charter) charging for a whole extra line. really burned me out [14:10] hello, i transfered a few songs to my ipod using rhythmbox, they are on my ipod but the ipod can't play them :/ === Kalidarn is now known as zz_Kalidarn [14:10] hello, is there a way to remove a directory with a "Circular directory structure" error without an fsck? === W1N9Zr0|work123 is now known as W1N9Zr0 === zz_Kalidarn is now known as Kalidarn [14:12] heyo. [14:13] i am running Ubuntu server version 9.04, x64, i have a issue with samba and apache2 === root is now known as Guest86478 [14:14] W1N9Zr0: check if you have recursive links, that's usually a fix for this. [14:15] burhan: yes it has recursive hard links, how do i go about removing them, rm -rf gives an error, rmdir on it hangs [14:15] W1N9Zr0: what's the error on rm? [14:16] Hello. I made changes to /etc/profile (added a network server) how do i make these changes take effect without restarting the system [14:16] ? [14:16] is there a way to record and play back keyboard and mouse events? [14:16] Diverdude: source /etc/profile [14:16] I want to make a screencast, but what I want to do is go through the motions/actions, take however long it takes me [14:17] and then replay back those actions but all at a smooth consistent pace so people don't have to sit there and watch a motionless screen because I was thinking [14:17] abstrakt: sounds like you need to plan your screencast before you start recording it :) [14:18] hello..everyone [14:18] rm: WARNING: Circular directory structure. This almost certainly means that you have a corrupted file system.NOTIFY YOUR SYSTEM MANAGER. [14:18] The following directory is part of the cycle: `/usr.old/lib/perl5/Unix/f/f/f/f/f/f/f/f/f..... [14:18] burhan: no I have it planned out [14:18] when i try to remove the gwibber service it wants to remove indicator-me along with it. [14:18] burhan: but for example, if I have code snippets, instead of typing them out myself, why not just echo snippet | myTypingProgram [14:18] abstrakt: I might have a solution for the keyboard problem, but can't think of one for the mouse. [14:18] burhan: so then people don't have to watch me backspace and correct typos for example [14:19] burhan: ditto for mouse actions really [14:19] abstrakt: hmm ... a history enabled clipboard might solve that part. [14:19] i am running Ubuntu server version 9.04, x64, i have a issue with samba and apache2 [14:19] burhan: ok, how do I get such a thing? [14:19] apache2 fails to edit files [14:19] only under 777 perms [14:19] abstrakt: you'd have to search for one and install it - or use an editor that can store snippets with keyboard hotkeys. [14:19] Xaevo: wait, apache only edits under 777, or apache *fails* under 777 [14:20] and i can only edit/save files on my samba shares when it's running under my user/group [14:20] hello ubutu [14:20] burhan: it's not about storing the snippets, it's about having them appear as if they were typed out at a consistent e.g. 50wpm or so [14:20] abstrakt, only edits under [14:20] ____________________________________________________ [14:20] Xaevo: ok so what? that sounds basically normal to me, esp when dealing with samba [14:20] hello [14:20] abstrakt, i want apache to be able to read/write under 775 [14:21] rwx under 775 [14:21] hello there :D [14:21] abstrakt: aaah okay, I understand your question now. You want the *appearance* of characters being typed even if you say - copy paste a snippet. [14:21] but it doesn't want to co-operate [14:21] Xaevo: but everything on windows is 777 by default anyway, afaik [14:21] burhan: yup [14:21] how to vm in linux [14:21] exit [14:22] abstrakt, i want to run a webserver [14:22] it's under my desk [14:22] Why couldn't I make make Start up disk with " start up disk Creator" with ext3 format? [14:22] i tough, for conveinience, i make samba shares possible to edit my files [14:22] burhan: and e.g. if I move my mouse from x,y to x+100,y+100 I would much rather have it just transition smoothely from point A to point B and ignore any of the jigger that my mousing hand might have introduced [14:22] burhan: just want to make things as smooth and seamless as possible [14:22] burhan: I supposed I just might have to write something like this myself [14:23] so, i basically want what every webhoster gives === sudipta is now known as buntu [14:23] when i install crap like wordpress, it must be able to just work.

[14:32] burhan, lan [14:32] Wats wrong with my phone it sudenly swtchoffffs [14:33] Xaevo: if you are on a lan, then FTP should be faster - but anyway, your problem is that using some PHP application you cannot write to files? [14:33] And gets formated [14:33] burhan, kinda, like, all files [14:33] burhan, it can only edit the files under 777 permissions [14:33] i want it to run under 775 [14:33] !details | Madmatrix [14:33] Madmatrix: Please give us full details.

[14:34] also, my FTP client sets all files to user remon, group remon [14:34] . [14:34] is remon your username on the Ubuntu server? [14:35] ÞÞ [14:35] burhan, yes [14:36] Xaevo: then that's what it is supposed to do. You login using remon, and the default action is to assign files to the user and group remon. [14:36] Hello, I'm looking for a simple way to automatically mount Windows partition when booting Ubuntu (10.10) [14:36] Xaevo: if a file is owned by remon, but has the group www-data, and its permissions are 775, the user remon can still write to it.

[14:38] sresu_: check the isze of /var/log/ [14:38] burhan, what is a secure solution? [14:38] is it possible to remount / to some other place like /newroot ? [14:38] Xaevo: on my production machine, all web files are owned by the user and Apache can still write to specific files, for which I change the group. [14:39] Roland: sure. [14:39] erUSUL: 10.7 MiB [14:39] burhan, how are webhosters doing it? [14:39] Xaevo: using group permission. [14:39] sresu_: you are upgrading? then /var/cache/apt/ will use a lot of space. check how much [14:40] burhan, why is my group solution from #httpd not working then? [14:40] Xaevo: who knows? Maybe apache is not running as that user :P [14:40] burhan, it is running as www-data [14:40] Xaevo: and you added your user to www-data [14:41] burhan, yup [14:41] Xaevo: and the permissions of the file are 775 [14:41] yup [14:41] Xaevo: and you cannot edit it? [14:41] wordpress can't edit it. [14:41] i haven't tried samba'ing yet, i am not home [14:41] Xaevo: what's the permission of the parent directory? [14:41] erUSUL: I'm about to upgrade from lucid to meerkat. Before that I was taking important backup and checking what all would upgrade need. As far as I remember it would take 2GiB from /.

[15:55] ok well i recently installed ubuntu version 10 on a new pc. since then ive been having problems with my usb microsoft intelligent mouse === Aaron5367 is now known as Aaron5367|detach [15:56] marti [15:56] How to run Thunderbird in background? :D [15:56] i have an older ibm thinkpad that uses hardy but i get no problems with the mouse. also if i try using the ps2 port the mouse will just dance all over the screen [15:57] Ubuntu users, what mail client do you use? :D [15:57] !polls | TomShatt [15:57] TomShatt: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [15:57] TomShatt, I'm trying to figure that out right now actually. [15:58] TomShatt: web interface :o [15:58] TomShatt, you kan use FireTray to minimize Thunderbird into tray [15:58] TomShatt, I'm torn between evolution and thunderbird. [15:58] intick: well I was trying to get to the system -> screensaver so I could change the time period forautomatic lockout. I just discovered something new. I am using NetBook remix, so the controls are different [15:58] TomShatt: Evolution or Mozilla Thunderbird are most comonly used with Linux distros [15:58] TomShatt: evolution === MashTomato is now known as MashPotato [15:58] I don't need to have Thunderbird in tray. [15:58] TomShatt, on one hand, I like evolution because it EASILY integrated my google calendar. On the other hand, its a POS otherwise. Very slow, crashes a lot, locks up a lot, etc. [15:58] You can use Thunderbird indicator to have Thunderbird in ubuntu-gnome indicator panel. [15:58] TomShatt, YET thunderbird is reliable, it works. bam. opens each time. VERY fast. However Thunderbird's integration of lightning extension and google calendar is a complete joke. [15:58] Which is where other communication stuff located... like empathy/pidgin/glibber(?) etc [15:59] yeah. [15:59] is there a way to fix this mouse problem [15:59] upon startup, either GRUB or the OS is setting my refresh rate at 85hz (which is more than my monitor can handle) - Where do I change this? Is it indeed an issue that the OS should be addressing or is GRUB doing this? [15:59] i have ubuntu 10.04 AMD64. I want to create a LiveDVD from this harddisk installation. Can anyone suggest a GUI based method to do this? A CLI method will also do, if it does not require too much in-depth knowledge of how linux boots... [15:59] hello all: newbie question, but how do i get a modprobe command to be persistant? like that module will forever be enabled, instead of going away when i restart [15:59] so I'm trying to find what I need to compromise in. a PITA email client with awesome calendar, or awesome email client with PITA google calendar? [15:59] rigved, there is a program called remastersys [16:00] Roasted_: What did you stop at right now? [16:00] TheCrow: heh, you are entitled to your opinon [16:00] TomShatt, what do you mean what did I stop at? [16:00] "choose" [16:00] TomShatt, I'll probably end up sticking with thunderbird, because evolution has proven to be unreliable enough that I just dont trust using it as my main mail client. [16:01] Roasted_: systray or indicator? [16:01] equus: yes, but it's not available in the software center. so i just wanted to confirm before using it. thanx [16:01] TomShatt, I'd rather use google calendar in the web interface + thunderbird for mail instead of trying to rely on evolution for EVERYTHING when it suffers to even open. [16:01] r3sno, yes... [16:01] TomShatt, I never ran thunderbird in the indicator. This was the first time I ever heard of that being possible. [16:01] TomShatt, thunderbird just pops up in the lower right with the email preview for 2-3 secs and I open it when I feel like it. How easy is it to inttegrate it? [16:01] has anyone else experience that problem with the usb mouse turning off [16:02] vinion2000, once I did, but that was with a faulty mouse. [16:02] Roasted_: Indicator takes less space, since it goes in one button, also notification like in pidgin messages is possible too. [16:02] TomShatt, yeah I know pidgin shoots up to that icon and turns it green. Thats possible with thunderbird??? [16:02] Roasted_: Na, i meaned what indicator applet does. [16:02] Why are Broadcom drivers such a pain to get to work [16:02] martianlobster: in fact it's a bit different than normal ditro [16:02] Roasted_: With notify lib. [16:03] dl551, because they are naive and closed source with their drivers. [16:03] 2.6.32-25-generic is the newest kernel ? [16:03] dl551, I got so raged with broadcom wifi I ended up ebaying an N wireless card for 14 bucks for my laptop. 100% of my problems were solved just by going to Intel wifi instead of broadcom wifi. [16:03] Roasted_: Just, i have only one problem left, how to make thunderbird keep running when i close it. [16:03] well thats the problem the mouse isnt faulty [16:03] Roasted_: dl551 broadcom have been doing a experiemental open source driver for some cards recently [16:03] dl551, I also sent them a slew of emails to let htem know that I now boycott them. Weeks later, they announced their drivers would be going open source. === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [16:03] lol [16:03] it just turns off after a while [16:04] sebsebseb: yes, but only for one chipset [16:04] sebsebseb, I saw that. IMHO I think its "a bit too late" [16:04] VERY VERY poor broadcom. VERY poor. [16:04] sebsebseb: but it's a beginngn [16:04] I hope once they (if they) go open source, the dang problems can be fixed [16:04] I will avoid them at all costs on any hardware I get from now on. :) [16:04] martianlobster: try this After installation see System > Preferences > Power Management. In the General tab you can set what should happen when you press power button, or sleep button, or close the lid of a laptop. [16:04] lol roasted, good luck :-/ [16:04] TomShatt, not sure of that one. I just let it run. [16:04] Sometimes it works, others not. The STA drivers fail [16:04] NightDragon, no luck needed. It's very easy to do so with Atheros and Intel being as big as they are. ;) [16:04] Roasted_: i always told people: don't buy broadcom or marvell [16:05] lsw8172: marvell don't think I have heard of that one even [16:05] intel, sure... atheros? [16:05] are they even still around? [16:05] I've had more issues here at work with broadcom/Windows than I've had with broadcom/Linux. So it's not just "one" broadcom issue I had before that gave me a sour opinion of them. [16:05] NightDragon, absolutely. [16:05] NightDragon: yes [16:05] * NightDragon shrugs [16:05] My anti broadcom-ness comes from years of dealing with their crap on every OS level. Not just Linux. [16:05] NightDragon: and they support the atk* driver development [16:05] ath* [16:05] oh and alot of the time it freeze during high activity [16:05] Roasted_: Well, if use systray addon, anyway to use it and remove thunderbird icon from systray? I already have it on indicator, why to have it in tray? xD [16:06] TomShatt, good thought. I just havent thought about it. [16:06] true... its just that broadcom comes in a *lot* of integrated crap [16:06] hell i think wii's have broadcoms in them lol [16:06] TomShatt, I was more concerned about trying to make thunderbird act more like Outlook or Evolution (but without the BS) and its proving hard to do so. [16:06] NightDragon, dear God... you serious? lol [16:06] unfortunately [16:06] can we make ubuntu desktop as a server instead of ubuntu server?

[16:12] I always thought it would be cool to have a linux server edition to allow you to launch/kill the GUI accordingly, so that way it doesnt lock you into a terminal-only interface and if need be you can launch the GUI, do your thing, and bounce out of it when you're done and drop to terminal only. Is that possible? === naka is now known as Guest95428 [16:12] learnux: Apparently Ubuntu Server is pretty good, but I haven't used it, however if I was going to set up a server for a business I would probably go with Debian or CentOS personalley [16:12] The B43 drivers connect but fail to work, and the STA gives a jockey error [16:12] seems the information were too fast for me...whew! im a newbie..trying to digest everthing [16:12] Guest1948, welcome.

[16:14] learnux: however as much as Canonical want loads of busineses to be using Ubuntu Server and paying them for support as well, most of these businesses are more likely to be using other distros at the moment for their servers [16:14] Roasted_: no idea :P [16:15] Eltu, I thought I remember google dropping the bomb and hiring a team of devs to make photoshop work flawlessly under wine. at any rage, that's awesome, but pretty sure that's what I remember reading :P [16:15] 2.6.32-25-generic is the newest kernel ?

[16:18] Hero: 10.10 [16:19] the reason why i ask ubuntu-desktop server vs. ubuntu server was that in ubuntu desktop we got a superfriendly GUI for MYSQL like mysql query browser to maintain, but i think someone says we could have gui in ubuntu server as well...anyway havent tried GUI in ubuntu server... [16:19] uLinux - strange does it stable? [16:19] uLinux: coz latest linux kernel is 2.6.36 [16:19] learnux: oh right [16:19] uLinux: for 10.04, it's 2.6.32-25 and for 10.10, it's 2.6.35-22 [16:20] learnux: I think if doing Ubuntu for this, you should go with 10.04 since thats the Long Term Support. However GUI stuff will mean desktop so 3 years of support, and server stuff is 5 years. [16:20] uLinux - strange does it stable?

B43 with the lpphy package: connects, but drops the connection [16:38] dewyface, helps to define the difference.. but you need to use "scp user@from user@to" [16:38] ezhangin: might be worth doing a proper look at how fast the thing is with iozone or bonnie++. hdparm is kind of a coarse tool for this sort of measurement. [16:38] Hey there, I'm curious why the GNOME Terminal version 2.29.6 offers a setting for default size ( see http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=w2exax&s=7 ) while the GNOME Terminal version 2.30.2 doesn't ( see http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=34ebzap&s=7 ) and what I can do to set a default size in 2.30.2. [16:38] airtonix: cheers, sorry been on my pc quite a long time now. so this will be dewy@localhost [16:38] airtonix: cheers [16:39] any answer for my question ? [16:39] ezhangin: depending on the size and expected resolution of the movie files, i can certainly believe that raid 5 would have troubles keeping up, especially if there are concurrent writes. [16:39] dewyface, so to copy the file on your server ~/Desktop/test.txt to your desktop computers ~/Desktop : scp you@server:/home/you/Desktop/test.txt ~/Desktop/test.txt [16:40] besogon: sorry i wasnt here, what was the last thing you wrote? [16:40] luis_: but give full output of the command [16:40] dewyface, you change the users and hostnames depending on where you run it from (ie from server to desktop or other way round) [16:40] 0016:30:24 < paulinha> acabou abiy [16:41] 16:30:32 < Pici> !br | paulinha abs [16:41] !enter [16:41] Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!

[16:41] soz mouse.pl is giving trouble [16:41] hey guys i keep getting Firefox can't find the server at www.virtualbox.org. [16:42] Hi. My notebook has ubuntu 9.10; It is good for what I use daily. do you recommend to upgrade to 10.10? what are chances of having problems with this upgrade? I have full-filesystem encryption [16:42] littlegirl: it might be that that value is now set elsewhere in the gnome preferences (keyboard, maybe?) i know that the blinking cursor option was removed from gnome terminal, it's possible the same was done for default size. [16:43] sipior: Thanks! Any idea who I would contact to find out? [16:43] besogon: its ok, i have solved it [16:43] besogon: thank you anyway [16:44] sipior: the array has > 500 torrents running on it and it was also used for media playback, i know that sounds stressful on a RAID5 but it had absolutely no problem doing this in 10.04 [16:44] sipior: Any idea whether I can force the size with the command that launches the terminal? [16:44] luis_: ok [16:44] littlegirl, define "default size" do you mean window? or font-size ? [16:44] Why is the text in web browsers so small? [16:44] And how do I make it bigger without having the pictures bigger? [16:44] !debootstrap [16:44] debootstrap is used to create a !Debian or Ubuntu base system from scratch, without requiring the availability of !dpkg or !APT. It does this by downloading !.deb files from a mirror site, and carefully unpacking them into a directory you can eventually !chroot into. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot for more information [16:45] littlegirl: have a look in the man page for gnome-terminal. but also have a look around the gnome desktop preference panels--it might have moved there, as i said. [16:45] airtonix: I'd like to define the default window size of GNOME terminal. [16:45] sipior: Thanks. Will do. [16:45] is there any online security scan [16:45] littlegirl: oh, in that case, you want the geometry switch for gnome-terminal. === aspire is now known as Guest53946 [16:45] for ubuntu [16:46] sipior: Yep, just found it in the man page - thanks a BUNCH! (: [16:46] littlegirl, until you open the programs window it isn't saved... [16:47] airtonix: I'm just going to create a launcher for it with the geometry specified. That should do it. (: [16:47] is there any online security scan for ubuntu [16:47] ezhangin: hmm. best bet is probably to check the mdadm version. might be a known issue. [16:47] littlegirl, that won't affect ctrl alt T or nautilius-open-terminal [16:48] um.. while booting up from ubuntu install cd, my screen goes into sleep mode :D that cant be good :p [16:48] littlegirl, you should use devilspie instead [16:48] How can I read my system logs without it using 4GB or RAM? [16:48] besogon: no, i havent solve it... [16:48] foo_bar, watch file/to/watch [16:48] manage to fix it tho, F6 -> nomodeset, but thats probably not what a newcomer might try [16:49] besogon: i dont know why i havent permission [16:49] airtonix: the thing is, that I have no idea what file exactly to watch. [16:49] foo_bar, or watch -n1 -d "tail /var/log/messages" [16:49] luis_: Give me the output of the command then. I'll help you [16:49] airtonix: gnome-system-log provides a fairly nice view usually. [16:49] foo_bar, what is it you want to find ? [16:49] airtonix: Oooh, that looks interesting! Grabbing. (: [16:50] besogon: im just trying to run and executable [16:50] airtonix: I would like to know what makes gnome-system-log so slow. [16:50] airtonix: I suspect it is a huge log file. [16:50] besogon: that its located at /home/luis [16:50] airtonix: which is also reducing my harddisk space. [16:50] airtonix: possibly noticably, I don't know. [16:51] foo_bar, have you tried using the disk usage reporter on /var/log ?

[16:53] peter__, you need to do the ssh proxy properly [16:53] airtonix: that gives me a directory log of 6.5 GB, but everything below it seems a few KB. [16:53] is there any safe and free online proxy server ? [16:53] for linux [16:53] CooKieMonster, ? [16:53] CooKieMonster: squid [16:53] CooKieMonster, a proxy server hosted by anyone else will never be "safe" [16:54] what is squid [16:54] how can i see the list of users in this channel¿? [16:54] More than set it in Network Proxy? [16:54] peter__, yes. [16:54] anybody running thunderbird with the lightning and gdata extension?

[16:58] from '$ man proc', the 36th column in '$ cat /proc/$PID/stat' is nswap. The text in the man page says "(not maintained)" Does that mean that I can't rely on that number because that section of code in the kernel that would write that number is not maintained, or that that is the number of pages that aren't in use (i.e. actually swapped)? [16:58] CooKieMonster, how so [16:58] I wanted to surf anonymous and did set up firefox to use tor.eff.org as proxy. But when i then enter google etc i dont get a response? some other proxys just returns "ItWorks" pages, something im missing ? [16:59] Thanks. I already changed the DNS setting in about:config in firefox though. I'll read through the rest of that link first.

[18:26] yes [18:26] and i got W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net maverick Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 35DA01C261E46227 Launchpad Default PPA [18:26] W: GPG error: http://ie.archive.ubuntu.com maverick Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key [18:26] mostly, when booting I just get the following error: loadval table invalid [18:26] wolfric: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [18:26] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: partimage¿ don't you mean gparted¿ [18:26] Dr_Willis: Install it from a recovery text login? [18:26] !info partimage [18:26] partimage (source: partimage): backup partitions into a compressed image file. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.8-1 (maverick), package size 276 kB, installed size 968 kB [18:26] ratcheer: thats one way. [18:26] no, partimage [18:26] akincer: yes.. [18:27] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: use fsarchiver? or ntfsclone from ntfsprogs [18:27] Hi, i got this one wireless network that im unable to logon to with ubuntu 10.10. It works with windows, and it only fails when i use the wireless. (wireless works other places) could someone take a quick look at the syslog entry here and give me a direction? http://pastie.org/private/voc1rljrmvs4sjxth48ngg [18:27] ive used it before, so im familiar with it [18:27] Cyber-Akuma: dd is quite easy just dd if=/dev/hda of=/home/image [18:27] That is it [18:27] Dr_Willis: Is there an easier way? [18:27] nothing works, cant even get the installer up [18:27] it's something to do with DHCP it seems [18:27] Hmmm, ill google those erUSUL [18:27] wolfric: then i dunno what is wrong [18:27] "nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Pointer to BIT loadval table invalid" [18:28] erUSUL: also don't know if it's related but when i go to software sources from admin menu, it says i don't have permissions. However any of my other installs just ask me for the password [18:28] will fsarchiver or ntfscloen do a full image backup, boot records of that partiton and all? [18:28] And not just files? [18:28] Dr_Willis: Never mind, I'll go try that. Thank you. [18:28] Untouchab1e: I've seen all sorts of video problems on the latest Ubuntu version. ESPECIALLY on older laptops. I've had to use the kernel parameter nomodeset to get anywhere. Have you tried that? [18:28] Pillus: wich desktop do you use? kde or gnome? [18:28] gnome LinuxAdmin , but tried kubuntu as well [18:28] Hello everyone. I have a quick question. [18:28] akincer: this is a brand new laptop with a Nvidia Quadro FX1800 card in it [18:28] ciaoo [18:29] Although I am confused why I can't find partimage in the repos anymore [18:29] erUSUL: that doesn't ring any bells does it? [18:29] and wireless works everywhere else LinuxAdmin [18:29] !ask | Emerica [18:29] Emerica: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [18:29] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: you installed 10.10? or some other version? [18:29] im on a 10.10 livecd [18:29] Untouchab1e: I wouldn't be surprised if it helps, but that is just shooting from the hip without Googling your error [18:29] Pillus, you are getting problems with one specific wireless network wright? [18:30] Yeah LinuxAdmin [18:30] everything else works fine [18:30] and that specific network only fails on wireless for ubuntu, with windows it works, and it works with cable [18:30] Every time I go to click Documents, Downloads, Etc in "Places" it opens up the Movie Player, when I want to view the files, making it impossible to view or install any programs or files. If you could help, that'd be great [18:30] I wasorry [18:30] hey could you help to create a shortcut for my main menu in 10.04 LTS ? [18:30] Dr_Willis: im on a 10.10 livecd [18:31] it's really strange, it must be something with a specific configuration that you have to make manually Pillus [18:31] Yeah it seems that way, but it's only with ubuntu, and it's irritating [18:31] i figured it might be the time ubuntu tries to get an ip before timesout is to low [18:32] Pillus, in windows do you have to make any configuration the first time you connect to that network? [18:32] Nah, noe PPOE or anything [18:32] no* [18:32] hey guys i have intel integrated vid card, and i ran glxgears im getting 290 frames in 50 seconds = 57.828 fps is that good?

[18:33] join #android [18:33] ok [18:33] when trying to use it to install partimage [18:33] i think i will try to change it from WPA to WEP to check [18:33] just need to get access to it [18:33] jrib: because of this problem. http://github.com/diegows/csync2/commit/1180b89468b159f8ee6480965d0ea111420ec444 [18:33] flanagan, type /join #android [18:33] Man, ubuntu 10.10 is very different from the last time I used ubuntu [18:34] Anyone know of a tutorial on how to install trac and connect it with git? [18:34] !source | shadow98 [18:34] shadow98: You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html [18:34] xangua: ive CairoDock and i want to add a shortcut for the main menu. there are 2 kind of menu Gmenu et the other one. They lists the same thing but one of them has icon the others has not [18:34] Pillus, do it just for testing. Anyone can break WEP security in about half an hour, or less [18:34] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: use sudo [18:34] i put ssh-add mykey in .profile, but it doesn't seem to execute on login. if i source .profile in bash it works. any ideas? [18:34] shadow98: you should do "dch -i", append something like "~shadow1" to the version and document your change [18:34] Hey there, I have multiple monitors and I would like to know how GDM decides on which monitor a window opens. It'll help my workflow a lot to have PDF documents open up on the other monitor when I double click them. Thanks a lot! [18:34] Quick question.. Trying to connect from my desktop to a remote server (both running 10.10) with vncviewer. I'm trying to log in with a username that is different from the logged in local user. The command vncviewer -user USERID IPADDRESS:1 fails with no message, just the 'short help'. Does anyone have any ideas? I can log in as the local user via vnc with no problem. [18:34] Yeah i know LinuxAdmin , but i just come back later if it doesnt work out :) Thanks for taking your time [18:34] How to make a key to increase and decrease sound level..? [18:34] Pillus, use allways WPA, WEP is not secure [18:35] u're welcome [18:35] I am using sudo [18:35] Argh, I keep forgetting to use names [18:35] xangua, I am using sudio === nik0 is now known as niko [18:36] sdk: have you disabled special effets ? [18:36] sdk: computers pings each other ? [18:36] Hmmm, I enabled all the reposotories (forgot to enable a few) and now the DOCUMENTATION for partimage shows up in package manager.... but not the program itself [18:36] why would it do that? [18:37] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: partimage itself is only available on i386. I suppose you're running 64bit or another arch. [18:37] the key "A" on my keyboard is not working. can i make some arrangement by which i can use "Z" instead of "A"? [18:38] hi for some reason my server runs out of space really fast, and it seems to go to a black hole: http://screencast.com/t/yRobKPo5a4Lj any ideas? [18:38] sdk: what about a direct test ? you do not nessecery need the username to log on . [18:38] Pici: Yes, im using a 64bit version of ubuntu since this computer has 6 gigs of ram, I guess I will need an alternative to partimage then... [18:38] lolloer____: Yes with the help of xmodmap you can do it..? [18:38] lolloer____: Yes with the help of xmodmap you can do it.. [18:38] What are the task bar notifications that IM programs like pidgin etc. use when you get a new message called? [18:38] Is there a keyboard shortcut for ubuntu to select multiple files? similar to what windows does with holding shift while clicking the first and last file. [18:38] Every time I go to click Documents, Downloads, Etc in "Places" it opens up the Movie Player, when I want to view the files, making it impossible to view or install any programs or files. If you could help, that'd be great. [18:38] Do you know of any that are UI or GUI based? I want to finish it quickly and it would take a while for me to learn how to use a cli based one, I am still new to linux [18:39] join /#erlang [18:39] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: gparted. [18:39] Anyone know how 10.04 or 10.10 runs on PowerPC Apple Powerbook G4? I had issues with trackpad sensitivity on a similar machine years ago with an earlier Ubuntu. [18:39] gparted can do backups? [18:39] daniel_: Shift+arrow key [18:39] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: Perhaps I missed the question, can you repeat it. [18:39] shame that tilda doesnt support profiles [18:39] I want to backup the partition to a file, or possibly split-file [18:39] not clone it [18:39] hi for some reason my server runs out of space really fast, and it seems to go to a black hole: http://screencast.com/t/yRobKPo5a4Lj any ideas? [18:40] irc://freenode/karthick87,isnick thanks [18:40] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: dd or clonezilla. I don't know if ui's are available for either. [18:40] This computer came with a 750gb HDD split into two, I want to erase teh empty "D:" partition and join them as one [18:40] as well as dualboot ubuntu and win7 [18:40] karthick87, ok, how? [18:40] hi, I am unable to open transmission on my system. when I try, I get this error: "error while loading shared libraries: libappindicator.so.0" [18:40] So I want to backup the win7 partition first [18:40] how do I fix this? [18:40] in case anything happens when resizing the windows partition [18:41] Ok, I got a big problem here and need help. My sound has broke. I can hear the rough sound of the music when I try to play it, but there is a horrible electronic sounding noise over the top of it making it un-hearable. Tried it with a film and music, its all the same [18:41] anyone got any suggestions? [18:41] aliendude5300_: install libappindicator0 ¿¿ [18:42] xangua: it says libappindicator1 is already installed and is the newest version. [18:42] jrib: ok i downloaded the 3 files and changed the csync2.c file now how do i get it to a deb package [18:42] Thor^^: find out what's eating up your disk space. 'du -hs /*' might be a good start [18:42] shadow98: read the link ubottu gave you [18:42] Hmm...... clonezilla is not in the package manager either [18:43] I'm working for a company, and they have a windows server for employees to put their work on, the method used for now is Sharing some partition that have all data we need, I've used that till 10.04 with no problem, but now with 10.10 I can see the folders and files, also delete or create, but when try to paste some copied files, or edit some files, i get `invalid argument` error box, or get some repeated data in the edited files, anyone face that problem ? [18:43] shadow98: you weren't supposed to download any 3 files [18:43] jrib, apt-get source csync2 did [18:43] Thor^^: do a search for huge file ? [18:43] shadow98: right, then add the patch, do what I said with dch -i, and continue with what's in the link [18:44] how can i list locks or something on a file if lsof isn't giving me anything? [18:44] timo: doing that now [18:45] lolloer____: xmodmap -e "keycode 61 = 7a" [18:46] egsome: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/659854 [18:46] mshadle: did you try 'fuser'? don't know how it differs from lsof [18:46] I have installed the "restricted" catalyst driver, but the graphics still feels sluggish. For example overlay effects upon logon look like "wargames". Is there something I need to do? [18:46] external hard disks stopped working after the upgrade to ubuntu 10.10. Any ideas how to solve this? [18:46] timo: thanks, seems like there's 41GB of logs on my system >.< [18:46] Thor^^: o_O [18:47] jrib, dch -i on the orig tar.gz file [18:47] timo: in about 1 1/2 hours >.< [18:47] Thor^^: what logs? [18:47] Anybody know how to change the default monitor for opening a new window? [18:47] timo: well it will be worth a shot.. this is so messed up i can't alter my ssh or sshd binaries [18:47] timo: apache [18:47] i am trying to edit a txt file using sudo in lubuntu but i don't know the correct command for leafpad (my txt editor) not gedit [18:47] Serious question now... Is gparted going to be fixed in Maverick, or is it going to remain pwnd until the next release? I use it quite a bit and it is a massive inconvenience at the moment... [18:48] going to debug that when I got the logs away [18:48] Thor^^: someone tried to DDoS you? [18:48] so i type, sudo gedit but nothing comes up [18:48] shadow98: just run "dch -i" in the package directory [18:48] ghostnik11, gksudo for a start if it is a gui app [18:48] timo: really hope not, doesn't seem like it [18:48] what could be the problem, my wlan connection is slow and randomly disconnects, my adapter is DWL-G122 (is on supported hw list). why could this be happening? [18:48] neurochrom thanx [18:48] thanks [18:48] timo: any way to just read the 2 last lines of a log or something without loading the entire one into memory? [18:49] Hmmm, maybe LuckyBackup will work, anybody ever tried that one? [18:49] Thor^^: try 'tail [logfile]' [18:49] ghostnik11, have you tried gksudo leafpad ?? [18:50] timo: thanks, found the issue [18:50] ghostnik11, you can use tab to autocomplete the name of the command (ie; leaf then tab) [18:50] neurochrome, well i did gksudo and typed leafpad and hit run and i am editing my xorg file right now, thanks again [18:50] Thor^^: out of curiosity, if you don't mind, what was it? [18:50] ghostnik11, np [18:51] timo: overly log happy php [18:51] ah [18:51] 41GB of Warnings [18:51] lolloer____: have you tried..? [18:51] erUSUL, True, Then do you have any workaround ? [18:51] jrib, so i need to untar the orig.tar.gz [18:52] shadow98: no, apt-get source already did this [18:52] What does it mean "OpenGL version string: 4.0.10237 Compatibility Profile Context" when I run fglrxinfo? Do I get some shafted slow compatibility mode? [18:53] shadow98: you should have a directory after you run apt-get source [18:54] Hey all I have a bash file that I need to run that requires admin.

[18:58] tensorpudding, I want to backup my windows partition before messing with it, and I am not skilled enough to use a cli based program [18:58] is there a reason why empathy doesn't have half of the features that pidgin does? [18:58] problem is most dont seem to run in 64bit ubuntu [18:59] Belial`: because it sucks basically [18:59] or I would have used partimage [18:59] Grr.. client came in just as I posted before.. sorry for the upcoming repost: [18:59] Quick question.. Trying to connect from my desktop to a remote server (both running 10.10) with vncviewer. I'm trying to log in with a username that is different from the logged in local user. The command vncviewer -user USERID IPADDRESS:1 fails with no message, just the 'short help'. Does anyone have any ideas? I can log in as the local user via vnc with no problem. [18:59] agree with blakkheim :D [18:59] blakkheim, it really does man. i mean it's missing some pretty simple things. [18:59] i use finch :) [18:59] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: there's clonezilla [18:59] finch? [19:00] commandline version of pidgin [19:00] ah, yeah. just read that. [19:00] tensorpudding, I coulden't find clonezilla in my package manager [19:00] clone it .. [19:00] Cyber_Akuma-Nix, clonezilla is a distro, you download the live cd from the site [19:01] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: it's a liveCD you boot from [19:01] Oh, there is no Ubuntu based program I can use? [19:01] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: how big are your date ? [19:01] huh? [19:01] *data [19:01] Cyber_Akuma-Nix, partimage? [19:02] the partition has about 65 gigs used [19:02] I wanted to use partimage first, but its 32bit only [19:02] hi [19:02] Is partimage part of that ultimate boot rescue cd or whatever its called? [19:02] why dont you just copy it to another hdd ? why do you want to use a program for taht ? the partition contain your OS ? [19:02] Cyber_Akuma-Nix, can't you use it in 32bit mode? [19:02] yes it does [19:02] A quick question for the udev skilled: /lib/udev/input_id returns ID_INPUT_MOUSE=1 [19:03] neurochrome, it dosen't appear in the package manager [19:03] Cyber_Akuma, why not use gparted ? [19:03] why doesn't a udev trigger ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="input", ENV{ID_INPUT_MOUSE}=="1" fire on device add? [19:03] jrib, Build command 'cd csync2-1.34 && dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc' failed. [19:03] E: Child process failed [19:03] Cyber_Akuma-Nix, ahh, weird. Well best advice is to use clonezilla, it rocks. [19:03] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: clone it with clonzilla ... i've always used it for all my comp [19:03] shadow98: pastebin everything you did starting from apt-get source [19:03] Hi everyone, my external hard disks stopped working after the upgrade to ubuntu 10.10. Any ideas how to solve this? dmesg shows lines like this "usb 1-6: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 7" but it all ends there. [19:04] Guess ill have to burn a copy of utlimate boot cd then [19:04] UndiFineD, if he's on Maverick then I'm guessing gparted doesn't work - doesn't for me [19:04] was hoping to do it within ubuntu [19:04] Cyber_Akuma-Nix, seriously give clonezilla a try [19:04] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: burn a clonezilla image instead :O [19:04] ^ [19:04] i wanna edit plymouth-theme-ubuntu-text it show a text (ubuntu) at boot when proprietary graphics driver fall to verbose mode ,,, is there any way to edit it ??? [19:04] jrib: http://pastebin.com/G18vkbTw [19:05] null263437: fdisk see something ? [19:05] shadow98: why did you add a "-b"? [19:05] yahyai-0, what? You want to fix plymouth with proprietary drivers running? [19:05] ok ok, ill go with clonezilla [19:05] yopiiii ! lol [19:05] but does it at least have a ui if not a gui? [19:05] yahyai-0, http://www.webupd8.org/2010/10/script-to-fix-ubuntu-plymouth-for.html [19:05] intick, no no devices are created after the device is attached, it seems [19:05] jrib, caues that was next step here http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html [19:05] shadow98: presumably you want to make modifications, not just rebuild the package the same way it was... [19:05] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: download the iso burn it and boot with the cd [19:05] jrib, after downloading source [19:06] right i want to rebuild it [19:06] yahyai-0, if that is indeed what you want, your question didn't make much sense to me ;0) [19:06] shadow98: that's "to auto-build the package" [19:06] could anyone second that it is not possible to get a tooltip when hovering the battery icon in the system tray anymore? also, could anyone second it is not possible to switch to percentage display instead of the remaining time? [19:06] shadow98: so "If you decide not to create the .deb at the time of the download", do that [19:06] Cyber_Akuma-Nix: it's very simple to use [19:06] I am downloading it [19:06] shadow98: /after/ you do what I said about dch -i and apply your patch. Pay close attention to what the link says. [19:06] bassliner, yes. no tooltip [19:07] neurochrome: grr. [19:07] bassliner, yeah 8/ [19:07] damn this. [19:07] null263437: have you tested your disk on another comp ? under windows for exmple ? [19:08] jrib: http://pastebin.com/2cppU0qK [19:08] can't believe there is no info on whether gparted will be fixed yet... there isn't even an up-to-date (patched) ppa [19:08] brb [19:08] intick, of course and it works. it's not just one of two devices. all of them show the same problem [19:08] whats the issue with gparted/ [19:08] shadow98: so you already applied the patch and ran dch -i to make the modifications I said earlier? [19:08] my /etc/krb5.conf file specifies log output to /var/log/krb5libs.log, /var/log/krb5kdc.log etc.. Those files don't show up. Do I need to do something with Apparmor to 'allow' them to appear? [19:08] Cyber_Akuma-Nix, seg fault .. btrfs patch pwned it [19:08] hey does anyone know how and when the validity drivers are comin up === Micheal_Skeleton is now known as MichealH [19:08] jrib, yes i documented them in there [19:09] I..... have no idea what that means [19:09] acredito ue nao..mais tem alguem de manaus?? [19:09] Cyber_Akuma-Nix, so in the rush to roll-out btrfs support they made the entire program unusable... doh! [19:09] shadow98: ok, I guess you used some strange syntax because it's complaining about that, but keep reading the link (apt-get build-dep) [19:09] hey, how do I get the ubuntu kernel config? [19:09] !pt > Ridrogo [19:09] Ridrogo, please see my private message [19:09] so this only happens if you have a btrfs partition? [19:09] Cyber_Akuma-Nix, btrfs is a filesystem like ext3/4 or ntfs [19:09] shadow98: by the way, what I said about changing the version is important [19:10] Cyber_Akuma-Nix, no it happens when I try to launch gparted... even though I have no intention of running btrfs just yet [19:10] Strange [19:10] im searching for a way to determine what media type is inserted in my optical drive (audio cd/data cd/video dvd/data dvd), any idea (from commandline) [19:10] I was using gparted just now [19:10] it ran fine [19:10] Hi all. I've just downloaded a HUGE binary file after some errors and resumes (using SFTP). Now I see that although they are identical in size, their SHA1 hash differ.

[19:53] i had some problems with ati under linux, usually nvidia works better [19:54] Dr_Willis, if you have an old mobo chipset is it wise to go for older card or newer card even if it is supported by mobo [19:54] glaucous: anacron should run them afaik [19:55] glaucous, see anacron [19:55] Had anyone success with Intel EMGD driver on Ubuntu 10.10? [19:55] erUSUL, anacron, such as /etc/cron.weekly and so on? (quick guess) [19:55] jrib: did you see my question about installing the deb file if i already have done an apt-get install csync2 on the system [19:55] crontab just run it at the next schedule time [19:55] jrib thanks lol i was thinking cd was a directory in itself. i am not familiar with linux i'm just using my brothers computer to fix my phone [19:56] shadow98: you can just install the deb (since it should have a higher version, it will be like an upgrade) [19:56] ok [19:56] john30: depends on your budget. cutting edge, just came out yesterday.. can be problematic.. stuff thats a few months old proberly is the 'best' compraize [19:56] john30: also the best bang for the buck. [19:56] glaucous, yes, it's like crontab [19:56] Does anyone use a Synaptic Touchpad with Ubuntu 10.10? [19:56] yes [19:56] !anyone | Samrey [19:56] Samrey: 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? [19:57] Dr_Willis, im having problems with video card and system maybe video is too new for computer [19:57] I'm having trouble with my xinput get-button-map "Synaptic Touchpad" behaving with 11 3 4 5 rather than what it tells me it is supposed to act as 1 2 3 4 5 [19:58] lol [19:58] john30: some chipsets have issues in some cases.. could always check the specific chipset on the forums [19:58] funny security [19:59] jrib: wow i did that all on 32bit and my server was 64 bit [19:59] Is there any way to stop ubuntu changing screen resolution when booting to a text console ? I'm using grub wuth Ubuntu 10.04 - currently text is almost too small to read. [19:59] Dr_Willis, do you know for a fact if X1600 pro is 0.8v or 1.5v [19:59] How do I change gnome automount permissions ? I have USB drives that mount as drwx------ and I want drwxrwxrwx ? [20:00] john30: no idea. [20:00] Mike632T, you may disable KMS, but intel video x driver won't load without KMS [20:00] joeyeye: if its ntfs or vfat try the 'ntfs-config' tool. [20:00] hi [20:00] how can i deactivate hal-acpi-addon? [20:00] joeyeye: what filesystem is the usb drive? [20:01] i don't want hal to do anything acpi related [20:01] !hal [20:01] Hal is in the process of being depreciated. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Halsectomy and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_abstraction_layer for more info. [20:01] Dr_Willis, they're both fat32 (vfat). But ntfs-config is not what I need, I need to change the permissions on the mount [20:01] !wireless [20:02] Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [20:02] Dr_Willis: doesn't really answer my question [20:02] joeyeye: You change the permissiosn of vfat WHEN you mount them.. not afterwards. [20:02] dli: Thanks - disabling X isn't a problem as I this will be on a server.. [20:02] joeyeye: ntfs-config i recall has some check box's to allow all users full access to the external drives. or you could make a fstab entry for them. but thats not as handy for removeable media [20:02] LinuxAdmin, yes I read up on it now. I've been using cron.weekly/daily folders before, and noticed that they ran at various times (because of computer shutdown). And it is indeed anacron which manages them, and not crontab. [20:02] Mike632T, are you running intel Video card at all? [20:03] what is the easies way to share my files from linux pc for my windows notebook? [20:03] easiest* [20:03] Dr_Willis, thos settings are gone from ntfs-confg ... :( [20:03] how do i access windows network shared folders [20:03] konraddo: file sharing like in windws ... [20:03] i82865G [20:04] ns_tech1: smb://you_server/your_shared_folder [20:04] like, the files i need are in a windows shared folder over the network [20:04] Dr_Willis, ntfs-config only allows you to change setting to allow writing to the devices [20:04] joeyeye: so what were you trying to do? [20:04] Dr_Willis, I want my apache2 to be able to access the USB drives ... [20:05] Mike632T, boot with kernel parameter i915.modeset=0 [20:05] joeyeye: you may be hitting some apache2 security settings cuasing the problems. The ntfs-config tool has my ntfs disks all with 777 oermissions. [20:05] konraddo: when activating the share option it will ask you to install a package, accept it and reboot comp (restarting session will be enaugh) [20:05] Error: Failed to retrieve share list from server [20:05] Please select another viewer and try again. [20:05] Mike632T, looks like you may specify resolution with KMS as well, try also, "i915.modeset=1 video=640x480' [20:06] Dr_Willis, I don't see a way to change with ntfs-config, maybe I'm being dense... [20:06] ubuntu-ve [20:06] Can I install vnc on Gentoo on VDS [20:06] joeyeye: I just chedked the 2 check box's for enable write support.. everything is 777 . [20:06] dli: will that work with grub..? [20:06] ns_tech1: folders are acecssible from another comp ? permission ect .. are ok ? [20:06] i am getting an error when i type the servername [20:06] ubuntu-ve [20:07] joeyeye: i notice its all owned by root also. [20:07] yes they are allowed [20:07] ls -al on my ntfs ---> rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 734242294 2010-05-22 06:27 The.Map.pdf [20:07] ns_tech1: try with the server ip [20:07] Dr_Willis, mine are owned by me (not root) and 700 ! [20:07] Mike632T, sure, you may edit /etc/default/grub and run update-grub [20:07] the IP worked [20:07] Dr_Willis, I know I can fix with /etc/fstab [20:08] joeyeye: all ive done differntly is check the allow write access.. could be you checked the box;s and it couldent remount them... [20:08] ns_tech1: the server name you yped should be case sensitive [20:08] dli: 640x480 is probably over doing it a bit - but currently it is defaulting to 2048x1536! [20:08] joeyeye: I think ntfs-confiog may add the proper entrys for static drives also. i dont have a ntfs flash handy.. so i am using internal hd's i realized just now. :) [20:08] ns_tech1: retype it and pay attention to caps [20:08] joeyeye: example entry -> UUID=779265E2127472CA/media/SegateStoragentfs-3gdefaults,nosuid,nodev,locale=en_US.utf800 [20:08] dli: will reboot to see if it has worked [20:09] silly spaces not pasteing... grrr... [20:09] joeyeye: example entry -> UUID=779265E2127472CA /media/SegateStorage ntfs-3g defaults,nosuid,nodev,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0 [20:09] joeyeye: good luck. its bed time for me. [20:10] how can i deactivate hal-acpi-addon? [20:10] i don't want hal to do anything acpi related [20:10] can someone help me how to attach internal disk? big thanks in advance, detail is here : http://paste.ubuntu.com/524024/ [20:11] how can i download the default configuration file of a program if i already changed the one installed? [20:11] hi all, I'm trying to leave windows totally. w/o rebooting into windows is there a way I can export the list of podcasts I listen to via iTunes? [20:12] jenda, you should be able to mount ntfs partitions auto, try a GUI file manager, like nautilus(of gnome), thunar(of xfce) === lazarus13 is now known as elazar13 [20:12] KatronixSerf: try this link http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=296635 === elazar13 is now known as esperian === esperian is now known as anawin [20:13] Thank you for all the help [20:13] hi [20:13] is there an install guide for macpros? === anawin is now known as lazarus13 [20:14] ive got this dual core xeon and im not sure if efi is supported etc [20:14] hm..I find it quite annoying that the update-manager keeps stopping and waiting for input. Couldn't it just continue with the work that doesn't require questions? [20:14] Am I supposed to sit and hold his hand for the 2 hours of upgrade? [20:14] basically [20:14] although, theres ways to force it to behave differently [20:15] is it normal to see your drive remounted 4+ times during boot? [20:15] dli: Getting better I now have 'normal' sized text, so things are more usable is there any way to stop the kernel trying to enable the framebuffer..? [20:16] intick, sorry that doesn't answer my q. in iTunes I already subscribe to podcasts, I want to get the feeds of those w/o needing to reboot and then tell itunes to export the xml of what I subscribe to [20:16] dli: presume that the value in "i915.modeset=1 video=640x480' is the VESA mode number (decimal?) [20:16] cYmen: that's what happens sometimes when you use GUI for tools that don't need it [20:17] Mike632T, it's intel KMS, no need to disable it [20:17] less control [20:17] Mike632T, of course, you may disable it by: i915.modeset=0 [20:17] hi.. I have a strange font problem in firefox where sometimes the text is unreadable [20:17] I just installed lucid lynx [20:18] dli: Many thanks - where is a good place to find out about the i915 kernel modeset parameters?

[20:26] sudipta: surely you can make one if there isn't one [20:26] addisonj: it has a gtk frontend and an ncurses frontend [20:26] its a gtk [20:27] addisonj, isn't it the same wicd-gtk [20:27] Hello, why does my samba-server not show a directory which is a mountpoint?

But, really, why does Maverick mount drives with the noexec flag? [20:34] never not!!!!always [20:34] dli: I don't think is is vesafb as it isn't showing in lsmod - could it be intel_agp?

Is there an easy way to boot into a lightweight DE/WM? [20:42] so I downloaded xubuntu iso and mounted it virtual [20:42] my system told me that dpkg was interupted, what's that mean ?? [20:42] I was asking if there is a way to install phpmyadmin without apache, as it requires it as a dependency [20:42] ran wubi and it's so far so good [20:42] but stuck on the ready stage [20:42] dropdrive: yes, download the Lubuntu live CD. [20:42] dropdrive: install xfce or lxde [20:42] dropdrive: make your own livecd/usb with what you want on it :) [20:43] Kin: the question is « Anyone know how I can install phpmyadmin without apache » my answer is « yes with another webserver » you already are using nginx so run phpadmin in nginx [20:43] Something is wrong with your logic there, you should re-examine the question. [20:43] SO what's causing my problem? It's not to funny when you can't procedd installation. [20:43] is a recommend so add -R to the apt-get command [20:43] Kin: ^ [20:43] vdubhack: Thanks...is it possible to do so without going into GNOME first?

Anyone using PAE to get extended ram on 32 bit? [21:23] raziel_: there should be a checkbox to remember your password. just uncheck it.

[21:31] Kevindeuxieme, yes but it's messed up :( [21:31] bodwick: ive just had a couple of days fighting with my ATI graphics, so possibly [21:31] ah [21:32] CanadianPirate: it basically creates a disk image file on the C drive. Then uses the windows bootloader to boot to that instead of using grub. [21:32] BlueEagle: http://imagebin.ca/view/et3SSy.html [21:32] that particular movie is the one that freezes on my at the transfer [21:32] hmm, miracles, my web box machine that stand in the corner is a web server again in few minutes, also it somehow found my old domain (that should not work anymore for months..) and its using it, how can that be :) [21:32] histo Makes sense. [21:32] and from there on all freeze also [21:33] bodwick: generally better as it might help others, and others might have ideas for you [21:33] Soraya: the fat entry is all jacked up right where that file lies [21:34] KenBW2: ok, so i've upgraded 10.04 to 10.10 and can't get fglrx to work .. tried from repo and latest fglrx form amd's site [21:34] bodwick: whats your graphics card [21:34] histo: thanks pal,im transfering back againt to my computer and formating drive to nfts [21:34] thanks [21:34] Soraya: there was an error when Major League 2.avi was copied, you might be able to recover everything else just by deleting that file (run sudo fsck... again to check the filesystem after the try) [21:34] KenBW2 hd4330, should be still supported [21:34] Soraya: How big is the drive? [21:34] is a 160 G [21:35] Soraya: I would use ext4 or NTFS if it must be windows based to avoid any problems. [21:35] Kevindeuxieme, thanks but I've just got them from the install zip [21:36] ext4 can be read in windows ? [21:36] bodwick: ah, mine's no longer supported so im using the FOSS drivers [21:36] KenBW2 you use drivers from ubuntu repo or amd's site? [21:36] Is there an IRC channel where it would be appropriate to discuss issues with how planet.ubuntu.com works? [21:36] bodwick: repos [21:36] Soraya: if you won't lose anything the easiest thing is just reformat the drive, if you want to try just delete Major League 2.avi and see what happens. If you would lose something, you can probably copy everything but Major League 2.avi off the drive before you reformat [21:36] Soraya: no [21:36] KenBW2 uhu [21:36] Soraya: No, only ext2/3 [21:36] bodwick: ATI decided mine's too old [21:36] links2? anyone? [21:36] Soraya: well they make readers you can install for ext3. I was saying if you need iwndows support go with NTFS [21:36] Soraya: or if you want you can use ext3 and install a reader in windows [21:37] Quick question: I've installed, in 10.10, the indicator-usb application. It's lovely but I can't seem to get the default icon to change. Any suggestions? It, apparently, takes the icon from stock somewhere but I can't seem to locate that said icon and replace it with the one I hope to use. [21:37] Jordan_U Soraya google is your friend http://www.soluvas.com/read-browse-explore-open-ext2-ext3-ext4-partition-filesystem-from-windows-7/ [21:37] KenBW2: yep, i know they don't support most older cards [21:37] ok,thanks i need to read in windows too,i share a lot [21:37] Soraya: http://www.fs-driver.org/ [21:37] Soraya: if deleting Major... doesnt work, I always use NTFS to share files between my OSs [21:37] Soraya: I use a FAT32 partition to store everything. I practically use that as my user folder. I've redirected most stuff to save there. It might also work for you if you can.

[21:39] Soraya: have you checked the disk? Maybe there is a bad sector in the first 63 [21:39] Soraya: have fun, just make sure you unmount/eject drives before you unplug them, that is the most common cause of filesystem corruption [21:39] Soraya, fat should be the smalest problem, unless you need some fater than fat filesizes [21:39] i have no errors on disk,no bad sectors,linux tells me [21:39] what is the package that has the twisted documentation on ubuntu!? [21:39] KenBW2 then i downloaded fglrx from amd's site .. and now it hungs or fails to start x [21:39] Soraya: yet your fat table is corrupt [21:39] i need to store big files too [21:40] i'am sharing my usb fat32 (formated on mac) with ubuntu and linux and no problems [21:40] im formating to restore my drive [21:40] bodwick: have you tried the FOSS ones? they work ok for me [21:40] thanks guys to all [21:40] KenBW2 they support gpu frequency scaling? [21:40] im getting everybody around me to use Linux-Ubuntu [21:41] i need to know so i can help them too [21:41] thanks for the help [21:41] bodwick: *blank look* huh?
