| Gnea | bigdad1e: you basically just need a private network setup on the interface going to the wifi and then setup ip forwarding on your server | 00:28 |
| bigdad1e | when i go from my router to server with internet it doesnt config ports the way i want | 00:29 |

| Jordan_U | MFen: Install from the mainling kerenel "ppa" and make sure you install the header package as well. | 00:36 |
| Jordan_U | MFen: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ | 00:37 |
| MFen | Jordan_U: sure, i did that already, and found that my nvidia driver wasn't available (it was a 2.6.37 kernel) | 00:37 |
| Jordan_U | MFen: You installed the corrosponding linux-headers package as well? | 00:37 |
| MFen | but i'm not at all sure how that works. the kernel process adds a whole bunch of layers of abstraction since i used to edit .config files manually | 00:37 |
| MFen | yes. | 00:37 |
| solexious | Can anyone suggest a gui based program for sending / seeing data from a serial connection (a bluetooth serial connection if that matters) | 00:38 |

| mobasher | my video resolution keeps reseting everytime i restart the ubuntu 64 it's nvidia card on the box | 00:38 |

| mobasher | is there a fix for that ? | 00:38 |
| MFen | Jordan_U: define "automatically". automatically when? at the moment the kernel is installed? when it boots? do i install some nvidia package | 00:39 |

| virtu | littlekosh, got it... indicator-sound, but it also installed pulseaudio and pulseaudio is no good for my soundcard (without pulseaudio good sound quality with pulseaudio bad quality) | 00:53 |
| maco | ccallahan: anything leaning on your windows key? | 00:53 |
| ccallahan | maco, no | 00:53 |
| virtu | littlekosh, so is there anyway to install indicator-sound without that also install pulseaudio? | 00:54 |
| maco | virtu: no | 00:54 |
| maco | virtu: indicator-sound works by controlling pulse's settiings | 00:54 |
| virtu | maco, ok, so is there anyway to install another volume control applet? | 00:54 |
| ccallahan | anyone? | 00:55 |
| cbill | mobasher: thats same as me, im not having issues, what res are you using? | 00:55 |
| maco | virtu: kmix from kde might work... itd go in the notification area in your gnome panel | 00:55 |
| mobasher | it's funny i change it update the conf file and when i restart it's there again..not sure why | 00:55 |
| maco | ccallahan: if you hit left or right, does it change workspaces? | 00:56 |
| ccallahan | nope | 00:56 |
| axx_ | ccallahan: you've checked the keyboard shortcut settings, in the options window of the Layout tab of keyboard preferences | 00:56 |
| * maco wonders if the computer thinks ctrl+alt are down | 00:56 | |
| virtu | maco, hmm and some different from KDE? | 00:56 |
| cbill | mobasher: are you using nvidia-settings to change it? | 00:56 |
| axx_ | an XFCE volume controller might be more GTK friendly | 00:56 |
| mobasher | cbill >> yea | 00:56 |
| maco | virtu: kmix can work with or without pulse, so it might work for you | 00:56 |
| cbill | mobasher: have you tried "sudo nvidia-settings"? | 00:57 |
| virtu | ok | 00:57 |
| lostintime | how can I configure my scaling_governor? How can I have ubuntu change my scaling_governor depending on whether I am on battery or not? Is their a daemon that does this by default? If so, where can I configure it? If not, what are my options? | 00:57 |
| axx_ | any pointers on the 60 sec countdown for shutdown/restart/logout in Maverick? | 00:57 |
| mobasher | cbill...mm..not but when i change the conf file it asks for root password | 00:57 |
| mobasher | cbill=>> when i make the changes in /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 00:57 |
| mobasher | cbill=>> it asks for password | 00:58 |
| ccallahan | axx_, nothing changeD | 00:58 |
| cbill | mobasher: try running "sudo nvidia-settings" and changing from there, just a hunch | 00:58 |
| mobasher | cbill=>> k let me try that | 00:58 |
| trism | axx_: the shutdown applet (or system menu option, if you remove indicator-applet session from the panel) still has the 60 second timer | 00:58 |
| cbill | mobasher: kk | 00:58 |
| mobasher | cbill=>> how should that matter when the file is already written ? | 00:59 |
| axx_ | trism: thanks, so the new logout applet is the culprit then | 00:59 |

| maco | Xplat_: it's mac development software | 02:19 |
| digirak | thank you all | 02:19 |
| digirak | i will try to work with this | 02:19 |
| digirak | also will ping for further assistance | 02:19 |
| maco | Xplat_: whatever you need to compile, youd need to first get all the libraries (and cocoa/carbon are not availble for linux) and then...well, you can only run things on whatever OS you compiled it on | 02:19 |
| cbill | x404x: are you lowering the resolution and color being broadcast? | 02:19 |
| x404x | so vnc eats a lot of bandwith ? is ssh with graph export gonna use less bandwith ? | 02:19 |
| maco | Xplat_: so i think you're out of luck | 02:19 |
| digirak | can you tell me how to get skype on software updates? | 02:19 |
| k0d3g3ar | I have Ubuntu running as a server, with about 50 users downloading large files (ie. >50mb). Some users have complained that their downloads are stalling. Its serving the files from Lighttpd in a very minimal way. Ne1 knows a reason for a very small percentage of users to have stalled downloads after about 25% completed? | 02:19 |
| Xplat_ | maco: then is there any darwin terminal emulator? | 02:20 |
| maco | Xplat_: the terminal in osx is the same as in ubuntu: bash | 02:20 |
| Haptic | so, I installed wine and I try and open up a .EXE file in the "Windows program loader" and it always seems to give me this. "The file '/media/ACER/Program Files/WinSCP/WinSCP.exe' is not marked as executable. If this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run. For more details, read about the executable bit." | 02:20 |
| cbill | haptic: you need to set the file as executable | 02:20 |
| littlekosh | Haptic: chmod +x /media/ACER/Program Files/WinSCP/WinSCP.exe | 02:20 |
| maco | Xplat_: though osx uses freebsd's version, not the gnu version, meaning some commands' more obscure flags are different. like ls --color on gnu and ls -G on bsd | 02:20 |
| littlekosh | Haptic: might need to sudo that | 02:21 |
| ed-eddy | _Tristan, still there ? | 02:21 |
| Xplat_ | maco: then can't I just run xcodebuild from linux, assuming I'll find it? | 02:21 |
| _Tristan | ed-eddy: yeah | 02:21 |
| x404x | in the viewer i set it to max compression, i didnt see any settings for speed on the server | 02:21 |
| cbill | littlekosh and happtic: shouldnt need sudo | 02:21 |
| maco | Xplat_: no | 02:21 |
| cbill | x404x: are you using remote desktop viewer? | 02:21 |
| maco | Xplat_: as ive said twice now, whatever OS its compiled for is the only one itll run on. unless you're suggesting that xcodebuild is nothing more than a shell script? | 02:22 |
| ed-eddy | _Tristan, did you check if dpkg -l| grep xserver-xorg-input-synaptic is present | 02:22 |
| littlekosh | cbill: k | 02:22 |
| Xplat_ | dang. | 02:22 |
| Haptic | gives me this `/media/ACER/Program' | 02:22 |
| ijij | question: i have 2hds, 1 IDE, 1 SATA. the SATA drive is blank, and i have installed ubuntu on the IDE drive. when i turn the computer on, it simply boots into linux--i don't see a grub menu. if i install windows on the second drive, will i suddenly see a grub os selection menu? | 02:22 |
| littlekosh | Haptic: chmod +x "/media/ACER/Program Files/WinSCP/WinSCP.exe" | 02:22 |
| Haptic | srry, this. `/media/ACER/Program': No such file or directory | 02:22 |
| cbill | haptic: put the path in quotes | 02:22 |

| ed-eddy | what does this show ? | 02:23 |
| stellarnights | *Can't detect... | 02:23 |

| cbill | x404x: or are you connecting from a windows box? | 02:24 |
| Haptic | so I typed that in. so response in the terminal. checked to see if I could open it and it gave me the same error message | 02:24 |
| bigdad1e | i got my network going. now i need help getting my ports to open | 02:24 |
| x404x | yes i connect from windoes | 02:24 |
| cbill | haptic: just right click the file, select properties, set executable there | 02:24 |
| ed-eddy | Yes, the trackpad is not detected | 02:25 |
| cbill | x404x: ok ignore my post about terminal server client then | 02:25 |
| ed-eddy | _Tristan, if you can find the hardware, I guess installing the driver will have the job done | 02:25 |
| dragonnutds | i have a question about installation inside windows, please let me know when i can ask | 02:25 |

| Haptic | when I click "executable" it checks and then unchecks. I tried 'sudo nautilus' but I can't find that directory while in that | 02:26 |

| LucidGuy | Confused. performing an rsync -av of a large directory(8TB+) from one filesystem to another... The destination output is always MUCH larger then the source? I don't see a symlink issue becuase -a copies the links not the data itself. Any ideas why rsync maybe doing this? | 02:48 |
| blakkheim | LucidGuy: out of curiousity what FS do you run on such large volumes? | 02:48 |
| GEEGEEGEE | how do i get the sound from a video | 02:48 |

| LucidGuy | the source is XFS | 02:49 |
| rallias | How do I calculate installed size of a package? | 02:49 |
| LucidGuy | The destination is an Axiom NAS .. appliance, not entirely sure what FS it has. | 02:49 |
| rww | LucidGuy: if the destination FS doesn't support symlinks, that would be an issue. | 02:49 |
| _jesse_ | rallias: apt-cache show <package> | 02:50 |
| rww | and NTFS, which is a not-uncommon choice, doesn't | 02:50 |

| cbill | xplat_: im not sure than, your sure its not a java app? | 03:16 |
| Jp82191 | cbill: it works thank you very much!! | 03:17 |
| xiaodong | hi | 03:17 |
| cbill | jp82191: np glad to help :) | 03:17 |
| Xplat_ | I have a hunch, cbill, that ubuntu is mistaking it for a Java Class. What's wierd is it doesn't show any application to open it by default. | 03:18 |
| cbill | xplat_: what if you add .jar, will java open it? | 03:18 |
| Xplat_ | I'll check. | 03:18 |
| ray9na | Question: The Celtx site says, "You can install Celtx by extracting the downloaded archive into your home folder (e.g. /home/yourusername/bin) and run the application from there. But then only this single user will have access to it." But I don't have a bin folder under /home/myusername -- Does that mean I can't go the easy route? | 03:18 |
| cbill | xplat_: i know very little with mac, so im only guessing lol | 03:18 |
| ectospasm | ray9na: you can create ~/bin | 03:19 |
| ray9na | hmmm | 03:19 |
| xiaodong | hi | 03:19 |
| Xplat_ | cbill: at this rate, I'll try almost anything. | 03:19 |
| xiaodong | anybody could help me? | 03:19 |

| xiaodong | I have a problem when I am trying to install a language pack. | 03:20 |
| xiaodong | The action would require the installation of packages from unauthenticated sources. | 03:20 |
| cbill | xplat_: if you add .jar and it opens, that would imply it is indeed a java app | 03:20 |
| iclev | ray9na: create the directory and preform a local install | 03:20 |

| tortoise | Ello. I'm having some problems with Transmission. It's giving me an Error: Invalid Argument (file path). It's never done this to me and I have no idea what it means, any help would be appreciated | 03:21 |
| Xplat_ | If this doesn't work, do you think it is a bug in ubuntu, cbill? | 03:21 |
| cbill | ray9na: you would need to make your own | 03:21 |
| cbill | xplat_: i dont think so, ubuntu isnt supposed to play mac files, its labeling based on content i believe | 03:21 |
| Guest2413 | I just installed ubuntu, and its not recognizing my wireless pci adapter its the w311v3 | 03:21 |

| Guest2413 | any help? | 03:22 |
| ray9na | All right. One last question: to paste something into Terminal, it suggests using Maj+Ins ... I know Ins is insert, what's Maj? | 03:22 |
| xiaodong | i fixed it yesterday | 03:22 |

| Guest2413 | <Guest2413> it netgear | 03:22 |
| Guest2413 | <Guest2413> any help? | 03:22 |
| Xplat_ | cbill: then why is it saying it is a Java Class? That seems misleading. | 03:22 |
| meanieface | tortoise: oh, i was getting that when i didn't actually download the torrent file but opened it directly from the webpage | 03:23 |
| xiaodong | <Guest2413> | 03:23 |
| Guest2413 | Yes | 03:23 |
| cbill | xplat_: well maybe its using java script, im unsure without knowing what it is ;) | 03:23 |
| xiaodong | i have another usb wireless adapter | 03:23 |
| tortoise | meanieface: how did you fix it? | 03:23 |
| Agent007 | nevermind, i fixed it, no thanks to you. | 03:23 |
| xiaodong | d-link | 03:23 |

| iclev | Question: Wine prompts "ODBC Error: Unable to allocate Environmental handle" at start of SAS.JMP statistical package. Is this a video card driver error? | 03:25 |
| The_Paco | Hi. I copied my ubuntu to another partition on my laptop disk. Found out it was conflicting because I duplicated the UUID. I ran tune2fs to make a new UUID and wound up making a new one for both partitions.... that screwed up grub, and I'm trying to figure out how to permanently fix it. I've looked in /etc/grub.d and /etc/default, and can't make heads or tails of it or how the script still holds on to the old UUID. update-grub change | 03:25 |
| The_Paco | s nothing, not sure why? Any ideas? | 03:25 |
| ray9na | Well, I think I've got it figured out. Thanks, everyone! | 03:25 |
| xiaodong | you may have to force linux to know your card. | 03:25 |
| The_Paco | grub2, btw | 03:25 |
| Guest2413 | thats not the same card. | 03:25 |
| johnjohn101 | question about a ralink 2561 card that drops wireless after streaming video.. Is there a fix for this without having to recompile driver? | 03:25 |
| Guest2413 | Is this guide still credible? | 03:25 |
| xiaodong | but similar method | 03:26 |
| Guest2413 | ok. | 03:26 |
| cbill | xplat_: says it supports java, for some reason ubuntu has identified it as java class | 03:26 |
| Guest2413 | Thanks. | 03:26 |
| Xplat_ | cbill: yes. I am trying to do what linux users want to do with windows. I want to compile a mac program without a mac (I don't have one). | 03:26 |
| xiaodong | find a way to let linux know your card's existence | 03:26 |
| Normal_Guy | Could anyone help me with setting up an OpenSSH server? I've tried just about every online documentation I could find and nothings working | 03:27 |
| cbill | xplat_ : i understand what your saying, unfortunately im way out of my element on this one though lol | 03:27 |
| Xplat_ | cbill: that's okay. Who should I talk to? | 03:28 |
| cbill | xplat_: have you tried eclipse? | 03:28 |
| Normal_Guy | Can anyone help me? | 03:28 |
| tortoise | meanieface: it seems to be working now, thank you | 03:28 |
| meanieface | tortoise: you're welcome | 03:29 |
| cbill | xplat_: im not sure, maybe someone here will know, i would also start a thread in the forums | 03:29 |
| Xplat_ | cbill: eclipse... I may have, but maybe I didn't use it right? I'll check again. | 03:29 |
| Xplat_ | cbill: will do. | 03:29 |
| cbill | xplat_: nor have i, i just seen it recommended on forums when i googled ubuntu xcode | 03:29 |
| Yompa | Normal_Guy: Did you try 'sudo apt-get install openssh-server' from terminal? Also, you need to open or perhaps forward TCP port 22 to your server. | 03:30 |
| sol326 | hey room | 03:31 |
| Jkessler | Normal_Guy i think 'sudo apt-get install ssh' installs ssh server? or maybe openssh package. it doesn't take much configuring other than ports after that | 03:32 |
| Boohemian | can someone help me with permissions issues? i am in the middle of switching webservers from lighttpd to nginx. i was trying to make it so user "nginx" could read+write /var/www/ and all its contents. so i ran "chown -R nginx:nginx /var/www". i realized that was wrong (and my site is now spitting out a bunch of php errors) and then tried to revert by doing "usermod -a -G www-data nginx && chown -R root:root /var/www | 03:32 |
| Boohemian | the errors are saying permission denied inside /var/www) | 03:32 |

| algeneral | Guest202496: that's simple. just type ssh username@serverIP | 03:39 |
| algeneral | where username is the user on the server | 03:40 |
| home | cbill: That means, I have to reinstal.. oh well.. will instal 10.10 this time <3 | 03:40 |
| algeneral | and serverIP is the IP address of the server | 03:40 |
| home | but grub scares me | 03:40 |

| bastidrazor | HeelToe: #httpd is a good place | 03:41 |
| algeneral | Guest98426: You'll need to give it its actual IP address then | 03:41 |
| cbill | home: no win7 for me :) | 03:41 |
| Guest98426 | I'd probably have to talk with my ISP then i guess | 03:41 |

| home | somehow I have graphics capability.. | 03:42 |
| Guest98426 | yes | 03:42 |
| _jesse_ | Guest98426: you can use the router's public ip then and port forward through to the server | 03:42 |
| cbill | home: what do you mean? | 03:42 |
| home | really scary | 03:42 |
| HeelToe | ty | 03:42 |
| _jesse_ | Guest98426: just configure the router to forward traffic to it's port 22 to the server's port 22 | 03:42 |
| algeneral | Guest98426: from the server, visit whatsmyIP.com and that will tell you your IP address. whatever IP address that tells you, that's what you should use on ssh | 03:42 |

| nomad|2 | hi | 03:45 |
| nomad|2 | got a question about wubi | 03:45 |
| nomad|2 | i installed it | 03:45 |
| nomad|2 | but it didnt add ubuntu in the bootloader | 03:45 |
| cbill | xplat_: damn im afraid all i can do from here is google, which you can prob do better/faster lol | 03:45 |
| _jesse_ | nomad|2: isn't Wubi within Windows? | 03:45 |
| toenail | would i go about it the normal way just run the disc and chose Drive "D:" | 03:45 |
| nomad|2 | yes | 03:45 |
| _jesse_ | then why would it appear in the bootloader? | 03:46 |
| nomad|2 | but to load ubuntu it must load it at boottime | 03:46 |
| nomad|2 | when i reboot | 03:46 |
| _jesse_ | I wasn't aware of that | 03:46 |
| nomad|2 | it should appear | 03:46 |
| _jesse_ | I thought it ran inside of Windows | 03:46 |
| nomad|2 | no, you have to reboot | 03:46 |
| rww | _jesse_: Wubi adds an entry to the Windows bootloader, which boots GRUB4DOS (I believe) to boot Ubuntu. | 03:46 |
| cbill | wubi just begins the install from windows | 03:46 |
| _jesse_ | rww: gotcha | 03:46 |
| _jesse_ | I see | 03:46 |
| _jesse_ | toenail: yeah you'd just choose the other disk | 03:47 |
| UnholyTerror | toenail, I would disconnect the Ubuntu drive, install XP on the other drive, reconnect the Ubuntu drive, boot into Ubuntu and run 'update-grub' as root. | 03:47 |

| FloodBot1 | CaneToad: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:47 |
| nomad|2 | so when i rebooted to complete wubi installation | 03:47 |
| nomad|2 | it doesnt show ubuntu | 03:47 |
| nomad|2 | boots straight to windows | 03:47 |
| toenail | reconnect the ubuntu as the main hd correct | 03:47 |
| nomad|2 | and another question. Does wubi support fake-raid by now? | 03:48 |
| franklin | não estou conseguindo instalar programas com cd no linux | 03:48 |
| nomad|2 | fake or software raid | 03:48 |
| UnholyTerror | toenail, yes. | 03:48 |
| nomad|2 | anyone know? | 03:49 |
| toenail | i hate xp but im only going to use it for recording cause my box is a few years old so wine doesnt work well other programs | 03:49 |
| thiago_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/535241/ | 03:49 |
| UnholyTerror | toenail, recording what? | 03:50 |
| toenail | ok so after im done reboot in ubuntu also i have ubuntu studio dont know if that makes a diference maverick meerkat | 03:50 |
| toenail | with sound | 03:50 |

| littlejoey | hmm nomad|2 it seems that you have to change that from windows, the boot setup, and add ubuntu or something | 03:53 |
| littlejoey | I haven't used windows in a while | 03:53 |
| tiox | TO be clear, I started on 10.04 before the upgrade. | 03:53 |
| tiox | So yeah, I have been current. | 03:53 |
| UnholyTerror | toenail, you will probably have to hold the SHIFT key down just after BIOS POST to get the OS menu. | 03:53 |
| nomad|2 | last time i tried wubi i didnt have to do anything | 03:53 |
| tiox | I just want to knwo what gives, and where I can fix it. | 03:53 |
| === bullgard_ is now known as bullgard | ||
| toenail | ok i just know in older versions of ubuntu you would have to have a fat 32 or nfts drive as c to dual boot because of he bootloader id assume | 03:54 |

| nomad|2 | anyone know if fake raid is finally supported? | 03:54 |
| nomad|2 | fake/software raid? | 03:54 |
| mike160 | @ cbill i love utorrent i tryed useing transmission does not give options for diskcache or deluge | 03:54 |
| toenail | last time i used ubuntu was 6.0 | 03:54 |
| MTec007 | looking for a reason as to why i can't get lucid to find the maverick upgrade | 03:55 |
| cbill | mike160: what option do you need? | 03:55 |
| rww | MTec007: because it's set to only update to LTSes. See the instructions ubottu's about to link you to | 03:55 |
| littlejoey | MTec007: I know the answer, go to hang on | 03:55 |
| rww | ubottu: upgrade | MTec007 | 03:55 |
| ubottu | MTec007: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 03:55 |
| Mox | . | 03:55 |
| mike160 | i would like to use utorrent it was also working up to now | 03:55 |
| toenail | thats why i though it would be a dumb question . thanks much ill be on my way to doing that then | 03:55 |
| littlejoey | MTec007: yeah that's what rww said that's it | 03:56 |
| nomad|2 | anyone use wubi at all? | 03:56 |
| UnholyTerror | toenail, doing it this way you are keeping the bootloaders separate... chaining from GRUB to Windows instead. | 03:56 |
| nomad|2 | is it even supported? | 03:56 |
| earthen | Anyone know of a good program to sync a android phone | 03:56 |
| toenail | ah i see | 03:56 |
| cbill | mike160: well prob a question for wine forum then, or use utorrent beta for linux, i dunno, utorrent is junk imo | 03:56 |
| algeneral | Where can I get the latest version of the fglrx driver? | 03:56 |
| MTec007 | so should i even bother with maverick if its not going to be supported? | 03:56 |
| littlejoey | nomad|2: I used wubi at the beginning, but found that a dual boot was much better for various reasons | 03:57 |
| UnholyTerror | toenail, really is simple... then you can google for a grub2 tutorial to tweak. | 03:57 |
| rww | MTec007: Maverick's supported until April 2012. Lucid's supported on desktops until April 2013. Your choice. | 03:57 |
| nomad|2 | so can i get some support for wubi here? | 03:57 |
| toenail | ok awsome that will help me get use to recording with ubustudio while im still enabled to use on xp | 03:57 |
| MTec007 | thanks :) | 03:57 |
| littlejoey | use the latest ubuntu :) | 03:57 |
| nomad|2 | im trying to install ubuntu with wubi | 03:57 |
| MTec007 | with no updates for a whole year? | 03:58 |
| rww | MTec007: basically, if you want to upgrade every six months, upgrade to Maverick. If every two years, stick with LTS | 03:58 |
| UnholyTerror | toenail, and you can access the XP drive from ubuntu | 03:58 |
| nomad|2 | but stupid wubi doesnt put the ubuntu selection in the bootloader | 03:58 |
| toenail | cause my thing was taking all this time to use a simple thing in xp when it took me 5 days with help to get my system working with my presonus firepod | 03:58 |
| Boohemian | can someone help me with permissions issues? i am in the middle of switching webservers from lighttpd to nginx. i was trying to make it so user "nginx" could read+write /var/www/ and all its contents. so i ran "chown -R nginx:nginx /var/www". i then ran "usermod -a -G www-data nginx". i realized that was wrong (and my site is now spitting out a bunch of php errors) and then tried to revert by doing "usermod -a -G ww | 03:58 |
| Boohemian | ar/www". i'm still getting the php errors (the errors are saying permission denied inside /var/www). | 03:58 |
| MTec007 | okie dokie, thanks all :) | 03:58 |
| Boohemian | i don't know where to go from here? | 03:58 |
| mike160 | ok thanks | 03:58 |
| tuborg | if, at boot time, X fails to load, with a long message about why... with what command can I print what is on the screen into a file somewhere to read later? | 03:59 |
| littlejoey | tuborg: I think you have to tell ubuntu to create log files for that | 04:00 |
| toenail | i know you can access the windows drive through . i have 2 fat32's now and i can look at them fine . Also i would have to install a program in windows to read the ext drive correct | 04:00 |
| toenail | i've done it before | 04:00 |
| toenail | just double checking | 04:00 |
| tuborg | oh | 04:01 |
| cbill | toenail: ubutnu can read fat32/ntfs | 04:01 |
| tecnico | tuborg: look for the logs in /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 04:01 |
| bigdad1e | i forwarded all of my ports i needed too but ccanyouseeme.org says they are still closed.. any ideas | 04:01 |
| tecnico | tuborg: or some similar name to that /var/log/X.... | 04:01 |
| wabznasm | toenail: yeah - I've used that before too. The name escapes me right now | 04:01 |
| nomad|2 | anyone have fake raid? | 04:01 |
| littlejoey | bigdad1e: did you check the firewall? | 04:01 |
| tuborg | should I be reading Xorg.0.log or Xorg.0.log.old?? | 04:02 |
| UnholyTerror | nomad|2, software raid? | 04:02 |
| toenail | its ok i know by googleing ext 3 or 2 it comes up thanks though im off to go and do that though | 04:02 |
| nomad|2 | yes | 04:02 |
| tecnico | tuborg: .log the .old is the one from the previous time that X was started | 04:02 |
| nomad|2 | software raid | 04:02 |
| tuborg | there I was reading the whole dmesg again doh" | 04:02 |
| nomad|2 | sometimes called fake raid | 04:02 |
| UnholyTerror | nomad|2, what about it? | 04:02 |
| cbill | toenail: not sure if you can read ext4 from windows | 04:02 |
| nomad|2 | anyone know if wubi supports it? | 04:02 |
| nomad|2 | one time i tried to install wubi in a computer that has fake raid | 04:02 |
| nomad|2 | and it wouldnt start | 04:03 |
| cbill | nomad|2 any reason you dont use a normal livecd? | 04:03 |
| nomad|2 | i dont want to | 04:03 |
| UnholyTerror | nomad|2, not sure what you mean... wubi is a file like in a virtual machine. | 04:03 |
| toenail | you got a point oh well if i need files that bad ill just put them on my other fat32 drive through ubu ( i have three hd's) | 04:03 |
| bigdad1e | i opend them in gufw littlejoey | 04:03 |
| icek | I have CVS server running on my ubuntu box, Is there a front-end tool for me to see when people tried to update/commit etc etc? | 04:03 |
| bastidrazor | bigdad1e: probably your ISP blocks them. | 04:03 |
| === sean is now known as Guest14029 | ||
| cbill | nomad|2 alright, but you should have been done installing hours ago | 04:03 |
| bigdad1e | no. when i its not my isp | 04:04 |
| bigdad1e | something between my server and router. | 04:04 |
| bigdad1e | i forwarded them in my router. | 04:04 |
| veovis1 | Is there a way to alias "cat X | more" so that I can type read X? | 04:04 |
| rww | UnholyTerror: Nope. Wubi runs on the actual hardware; it doesn't have anything sitting between it and the computer. It just runs off a loopback filesystem instead of an actual partition. | 04:04 |

| jiMubao | Hi, i'm trying to install Ubuntu server 10.10 from a usb stick, and it refuses to load installer components from cd (since there is no cd in the drive). what am i doing wrong? | 04:05 |
| littlejoey | !usb | 04:06 |
| ubottu | For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 04:06 |
| tecnico | veovis1: alias mycmd='less $1' , so you type mycmd X .. but that doesn't save you any typing | 04:06 |
| jiMubao | it manage to load and selected language | 04:06 |
| jiMubao | and keyboard | 04:06 |
| jiMubao | but then it will shoe the msg cd rom component etc... | 04:06 |
| TheGreatRift | holy moses, I'm already banned and I never even entered that channel | 04:07 |
| rww | jiMubao: debian-installer (which is what Ubuntu Server's installer is) has a heck of a time with USB sticks. I eventually gave up trying. | 04:07 |
| bastidrazor | bigdad1e: netstat -napt ::to verify the ports are open and something is actually listening on them. | 04:07 |
| rww | TheGreatRift: Your ISP is banned from there. Ask in #ubuntu-ops. | 04:07 |
| tiox | Someone wanna help me? I need to figure out what is keeping me from burning CDs since I upgraded to 10.10. | 04:08 |
| bigdad1e | ok | 04:08 |
| Maahes | is there a way to redraw the x screen? I have visual artifacts that won't go away | 04:08 |
| tiox | Never had this problem with the PTS release. | 04:08 |
| TheGreatRift | I can definitely see why, my country is a mess when it comes to internet security :( | 04:08 |
| bigdad1e | the ones i want are not | 04:08 |
| veovis1 | tecnico: thanks. It's more a general question, as in, can I alias something with input in the middle to have the input on the end. Just a curiosity, not a need. | 04:08 |
| jiMubao | rww: so should i burn it into CD and buy cd rom and run from it ? | 04:08 |
| hearit | hello | 04:08 |
| bastidrazor | bigdad1e: then you need a service running on those ports before they are opened | 04:08 |
| rww | jiMubao: That's probably your best bet, unfortunately. I assume there's some way of doing it, but I couldn't figure it out. | 04:08 |
| hearit | i forget the gnome-panels | 04:08 |
| hearit | i cant add one | 04:08 |

| kvphysics | sasdasdasd | 04:15 |
| saasd | ? | 04:15 |
| _jesse_ | shodue: you should look at apache replication | 04:15 |
| bastidrazor | bigdad1e: just opening the port isn't the solution. you have to have a service listening to that port before it will matter. i can open port 80 all day long but unless ubuntu knows what to do with port 80 it will not matter | 04:16 |
| === saasd is now known as S55f080c0 | ||
| shodue | _jesse_, thanks, I'll check that out | 04:16 |
| bigdad1e | ok. so how do i show ubuntu what do to with it | 04:16 |
| bastidrazor | bigdad1e: what service are you trying to run? | 04:17 |
| bigdad1e | source dedicated server | 04:17 |
| mrbox | who has gnome shell compiled from git? | 04:17 |
| _jesse_ | shodue: that's probably the more 'appropriate' way to do it anyway; just keeping two directories synchronized likely has other options as well, but nothing jumps to the top of my mind | 04:17 |
| bigdad1e | bastidrazor: source dedicated server | 04:18 |
| mrbox | who has gnome shell compiled from git? | 04:18 |
| bastidrazor | bigdad1e: there is a config file that will allow you to designate ports. | 04:18 |
| mrbox | who has gnome shell compiled from git? | 04:18 |
| bigdad1e | bastidrazor: where do i find it | 04:19 |
| oldschool | cbill you still around ? | 04:19 |
| bastidrazor | bigdad1e: how did you install the server? | 04:19 |
| Ologn | mrbox: jhbuild helps with a lot of the build dependencies | 04:19 |
| bigdad1e | bastidrazor: the server source dedicated is on? or ubuntu server? | 04:20 |
| Ologn | mrbox: I think there's even instructions out there more automated then the standard jhbuild stuff for gnome-shell | 04:20 |
| cbill | oldschool: ya | 04:20 |
| bastidrazor | bigdad1e: the source dedicated server itself. | 04:20 |
| bigdad1e | bastidrazor: just as follows http://www.srcds.com/db/engine.php?subaction=showfull&id=1098643920&archive= | 04:20 |
| bastidrazor | bigdad1e: then there should be some documentation that will tell locations of the config files | 04:21 |
| icek | Does anyone know of any CVS server side reporting tools? | 04:21 |
| bigdad1e | bastidrazor: ok. if the files are in the game server i can find them. the one port i need open that i know there is no cfg for is 1200 for steam | 04:22 |
| mrbox | how do i get the red text? i have tried that tutorial getting hung up un errors | 04:22 |
| shodue | _jesse_, I didn't find anything clear or helpful when querying "apache replication" | 04:22 |

| violet | Specifically, the forward button is greyed out on the "Who Are You" page. | 04:26 |
| cbill | oldschool: you can either use backports, or just goto transmission site and grab the meerkat release, i dont think you should have a dependicy issue with it | 04:26 |
| edbian | violet, Did you type in who you are? | 04:26 |
| violet | Yes. :-p | 04:27 |

| === gdb_ is now known as gdb | ||
| _jesse_ | shodue: I see, well if you just want to keep the directories synchronized and you're the only one that's going to be editing them you can use something like rsync | 04:27 |
| Tweedle | can anyone help me out with getting my ATI video card to work? | 04:28 |
| edbian | violet, I'm guessing there is something wrong with what you entered into one of the fields but it didn't tell you for some reason. | 04:28 |
| _jesse_ | shodue: just consider one of them your 'master' copy and rsync it to the other | 04:28 |
| violet | I filled out my name, the computer's name, my user name. I picked a good password, and there's a green checkmark by the pw confirmation box, indicating a match. | 04:28 |
| shodue | _jesse_, yes, I'm the only person editing them. question: Can I use rsync on the slave (campus) computer to look up and copy the files that exist on the master? | 04:29 |
| edbian | violet, What did you pick for these other things? Did you try going back and then forward again? | 04:29 |

| violet | Yeah, I tried going back and foward, and fucking with the Log in automatically / Require my password to log in / Encrypt my home folder switches. | 04:29 |
| bigdad1e | or can any help me set up an ftpserver | 04:30 |
| Tweedle | violet: are you having problems with root password? | 04:30 |
| edbian | violet, I don't expect it to be those check boxes. I think you put in an invalid hostname or something | 04:30 |
| violet | My name: Becky / My computer's name: Ada / Pick a username: Becky | 04:30 |

| violet | Didn't change anything. | 04:30 |
| edbian | rww, Any ideas? | 04:30 |
| bastidrazor | violet: use all lowercase | 04:30 |
| root_ | hello | 04:31 |
| bigdad1e | thank you | 04:31 |
| Tweedle | violet: how are you stuck? | 04:31 |
| edbian | violet, All lowercase on the username not on your actual name | 04:31 |
| _jesse_ | shodue: yeah you can call rsync with the 'src' being an external resource and the copy being local | 04:31 |
| violet | Yeah, all lowercase fixed it. | 04:31 |
| edbian | Tweedle, He cannot get past the username / password screen. The forward button is greyed out. | 04:31 |
| _jesse_ | shodue: rsync [OPTION] … [USER@]HOST:SRC [DEST] | 04:31 |
| edbian | violet, problem solved? | 04:31 |
| edbian | violet, excellent :) | 04:31 |
| violet | Yeah. | 04:31 |
| violet | The installer should almost certainly warn about that. :-P | 04:31 |
| edbian | violet, Yes I'm sure it's very confusing | 04:32 |

| Nick_Meister | i pulled up top but that does not tell me much | 04:33 |
| maco | !es | Guest29129 | 04:33 |
| ubottu | Guest29129: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 04:33 |
| Tweedle | Nick_Meister: bad install disk, make a new one and start over | 04:33 |
| cbill | oldschool: or add the transmission ppa, either way will get you a newer version | 04:34 |
| edbian | Nick_Meister, Does it say "read when you are" at the bottom? | 04:34 |
| bastidrazor | bigdad1e: applications install/manager? do you mean apt-get or aptitude? | 04:34 |
| violet | I didn't fill out the form. It doesn't normalize that, though? (I mean, apparenlty not.) | 04:34 |
| bigdad1e | like program manager in windows | 04:34 |
| oldschool | how do i do that am new to ubuntu | 04:34 |
| maco | bigdad1e: software center? | 04:34 |
| Nick_Meister | edbian, what bottom? | 04:34 |
| shodue | _jesse_, thank you, I'll try taking it from here! | 04:34 |
| bigdad1e | maca: correct | 04:34 |
| edbian | Nick_Meister, Right underneath the progress bar? Is there a forward button on the bottom right? | 04:34 |
| bigdad1e | maca: i am a noob and need all the help i can get | 04:35 |
| bastidrazor | maco: i thought you stated you were on a server? | 04:35 |
| Nick_Meister | edbian, nope | 04:35 |
| bigdad1e | i am on a server with lubuntu gui | 04:35 |
| edbian | Nick_Meister, Then yeah it sounds like the CD has a scratch or something. | 04:35 |
| Nick_Meister | edbian, says installing system 77% and then get involved and contribute below that | 04:35 |
| edbian | Nick_Meister, How long has it been stuck? | 04:35 |
| Nick_Meister | edbian, its not a cd its a flash drive | 04:35 |
| buntu | #join ubuntu-server | 04:35 |
| Nick_Meister | edbian, a while now | 04:35 |
| oldschool | @ cbill add the transmission ppa how do i do that | 04:35 |
| Nisstyre65 | edbian, do an md5 check on the image file | 04:36 |
| edbian | Nick_Meister, Just try to install again. If the same thing happens than remake the USB | 04:36 |
| _jesse_ | shodue: no problem, good luck | 04:36 |

| yggdrasil | hello, i have a mthbuntu box here , and im trying to go and edit /boot/grub/menu.lst but its not there .>???! wtf ? | 04:36 |
| cbill | oldschool: prob easier to just grab from here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/all/transmission/download | 04:36 |
| bastidrazor | bigdad1e: i don't know the UI for lubuntu.. | 04:36 |
| edbian | !grub2 | yggdrasil | 04:36 |
| ubottu | yggdrasil: 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 | 04:36 |
| yggdrasil | wow | 04:37 |
| yggdrasil | thanks | 04:37 |
| edbian | yggdrasil, It's waaay different | 04:37 |
| Nick_Meister | edbian, oops, it just jumped to 100 somehow >....> | 04:37 |
| edbian | Nick_Meister, ha. You're done! | 04:37 |
| yggdrasil | yea , im freaking out here | 04:37 |
| Nick_Meister | edbian, it was on 77% for like an hour... | 04:37 |
| bigdad1e | bastidrazor: well im running ubuntu server 10.10 can i just use ubuntu's? | 04:37 |
| edbian | Nick_Meister, Ha ha, well maybe it's done now? IDK | 04:37 |
| yggdrasil | im gonna have todrink some chamomile tea or something | 04:37 |
| cbill | oldschool: ppa info here: https://edge.launchpad.net/~transmissionbt/+archive/ppa | 04:37 |
| oldschool | ok thanks cbill i will give this a go | 04:38 |
| bastidrazor | bigdad1e: the server will not have any GUI type applications. apt-get from command line would be the package management for the server. | 04:38 |
| cbill | oldschool: imo transmission is the best BT client around | 04:38 |
| === riku is now known as Guest13626 | ||
| bigdad1e | bastidrazor: the server didnt have a gui so i did sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop. but im still running server right with the lubuntu gui? | 04:39 |
| edbian | bigdad1e, Essentially yes. If you change enough packages you can turn "ubuntu server" into "ubuntu" | 04:40 |
| oldschool | cbill i use utorrent now for years and i love it but its not working now dont know why :( | 04:40 |
| edbian | bigdad1e, It is proper to have cli only on a linux server | 04:40 |
| oldschool | but i will give tran a go and see how it works for me | 04:41 |
| wabznasm | oldschool: I moved to trans from utorrent and have had no complaints. It seems to do what it says on the tin | 04:42 |
| tyler_d | in an attempt to update/upgrade my system I now cannot get into gdm, and upon trying to complete the process I am receiving errors pertaining to unmet dependancies within my system. I believe the problem is that upstart has not installed properly, I am recieving "/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory" upon startup | 04:42 |
| cbill | oldschool: it will take a bit to get used to a differant ui, but transmission is very light, integrated well into gnome, and has integrated blocklists; utorrent is a propritary app, i try to avoid that whenever possible | 04:42 |
| subsume | Is 10.10 built on squeeze? | 04:42 |
| x404x | is there a way to make hellanzb / lotta assemble the parts they downloaded before finished ? | 04:42 |
| bigdad1e | edbian: if i knew how to run linux proper i would just use server. but im a noob and didnt relise how difficult it can be at the start but im getting the hang of it. is there any software center i can put on here? | 04:42 |
| edbian | subsume, yeah. Ubuntu is always built from Debian testing | 04:42 |
| rww | subsume: no. 10.10 imported from Debian Sid | 04:42 |
| edbian | subsume, This becomes less and less apparent with every release | 04:42 |
| subsume | edbian right but i wasn't sure if it was lenny, sid, or.... | 04:42 |
| rww | edbian: Lucid was from testing, others were from sid | 04:42 |
| edbian | rww, Really? | 04:42 |
| rww | edbian: yes | 04:42 |
| edbian | rww, never knew that | 04:42 |
| subsume | thanks. guess I'll wait. | 04:43 |
| edbian | so Ubuntu is not based on Debian testing. It's based on Debian sid | 04:43 |
| === ffffly is now known as fishexe | ||
| edbian | bigdad1e, apt-get is a package manager (software center) | 04:43 |
| cbill | oldschool, i also love transmission turtle mode, which im using as we speak :) | 04:43 |
| rww | edbian: I'm not sure what percentages of Ubuntu packages come from Debian these days, but yeah, the stuff that's autosynced from Debian comes from sid. | 04:43 |
| bigdad1e | edbian: but i want to install the gui version | 04:43 |
| edbian | bigdad1e, The idea of a software center or app store is just stolen from the linux repositories / package manager | 04:43 |
| oldschool | cbill is there any way to change the cache setting in the new transition | 04:44 |
| edbian | bigdad1e, sudo apt-get install software-center | 04:44 |
| === James is now known as Guest43703 | ||
| cbill | oldschool: what do you mean, were the downloads are cached? | 04:44 |
| edbian | bigdad1e, or sudo apt-get install synaptic (little lower level than software-center) | 04:44 |
| bigdad1e | thank you | 04:44 |
| edbian | bigdad1e, no prob | 04:44 |
| === Guest43703 is now known as JamesRAscal | ||
| edbian | bigdad1e, They will depend on a ton of other packages (everything you need to have a gui) | 04:45 |
| JamesRAscal | Here is one for the lot of you I have a cyborg RAT 3 mouse that won't play nice with windows | 04:45 |
| === nick is now known as Guest73359 | ||
| JamesRAscal | I mean Lubuntu | 04:45 |
| cbill | oldschool: im just not sure what your asking, try to explain the feature to me | 04:45 |
| edbian | bigdad1e, If you installed from scratch it may be easier to learn if you just install Ubuntu normal and make it a server | 04:45 |
| Guest73359 | i am not a total nubie to xubuntu but i can not figure out how to upgrade from 7 to the latest version | 04:45 |
| edbian | Guest73359, 7? | 04:45 |
| oldschool | like in utorrent sometimes you get diskoverload it you have the cache setup wrong when downloading | 04:45 |
| cbill | oldschool, you shouldnt have that issue with transmission | 04:46 |
| bigdad1e | edbian, yeah i understand. but until i get ahold of linux i have to compramise. i havent slept in 3 days because i have been working on my servers. | 04:46 |
| edbian | bigdad1e, hardcore. You're probably not very productive anymore | 04:46 |
| oldschool | am haveing it with deluge i will try tran then | 04:46 |
| littlejoey | Guest73359: check your settings for upgrade, I think by default they only upgrade to the next LTS, set them to upgrade to any new distribution | 04:46 |
| bigdad1e | edbian: im doing what i can. | 04:47 |
| cbill | oldschool: do you know what causes the issue? ive never seen it happen | 04:47 |
| bigdad1e | edbian: living off coffee and sugar for the past 18 hours | 04:47 |
| sikpits87 | does anybody know how to get the linux mint 10 theme for ubuntu 10.10? | 04:47 |
| JamesRAscal | I will check settings for upgrade modded the /etc/x11/Xmodmap and it seems to work but have to right click each time I wanna change windows | 04:48 |
| K350 | I've a textbased ubuntu 8.04 on a remote box. How can I change distro to ubuntu-server - current ver- remotely? | 04:48 |
| edbian | littlejoey, You're right. It does to that by default | 04:48 |
| littlejoey | sikpits87: it is in the repos, isn't it? | 04:48 |
| cbill | olschool: i would suggest simply making sure you set up your speed limits properly | 04:48 |
| littlejoey | yup I thought so I had the same problem | 04:48 |
| Guest73359 | all i need is the latest version of firefox my distro is running 7 | 04:48 |

| Guest73359 | k350: yes any ideas | 04:52 |
| littlejoey | sikpits87: right, I couldn't find it in the repos, it should be somewhere though | 04:52 |

| lockersnatch | _ahaz_: if the install continued to install onto partition that was formatted, the data is prob already gone | 05:18 |
| maritzaChica | anyone familiar with IO-APIC timer error | 05:18 |
| lockersnatch | _ahaz_: it is retrievable until it gets written over again | 05:18 |

| cbill | oldschool, it will tell you if there is a dependency issue | 05:22 |
| * yangpeng away | 05:22 | |
| ftg2 | dragonkeeper: what permissions are you trying to set? | 05:22 |
| _jesse_ | shodue: the website is just a collection of files, no? | 05:23 |
| shodue | _jesse_, From what I have read, rsync does not work over HTTP. If this is true, another option is SSH, right? I opened port 22 for SSH on my firewall, but I cannot "ssh" my computer from outside our firewall--in particular, I can ping the global IP, but it does not respond to SSH. | 05:23 |
| _jesse_ | shodue: right you'd transport the files over ssh | 05:23 |
| shodue | _jesse_, yes, the website is a collection of files. | 05:23 |
| dragonkeeper | ftg2 so i can make it executable | 05:23 |
| shodue | _jesse_, maybe you can help me with the SSH enabling. Do i need to do anything on the server side to enable SSH? | 05:23 |
| _jesse_ | shodue: then just rsync the directory holding the website | 05:24 |

| _jesse_ | shodue: on your home server you will need the openssh server | 05:24 |
| ftg2 | dragonkeeper: ahh. well i think i see your problem then. it should be +x to grant executable, -x to take it away | 05:24 |
| _jesse_ | shodue: and that port to be available | 05:24 |
| ftg2 | dragonkeeper: executable for who? you, the group? everyone? just +x will make it executable for all three fields | 05:24 |
| dragonkeeper | ftg2 ahh ok thanks | 05:24 |
| shodue | _jesse_, is openssh something i must install on my home server? | 05:24 |
| === benji is now known as Guest6796 | ||
| dragonkeeper | ftg2 for me | 05:24 |
| _jesse_ | shodue: the openssh daemon must be running on your home server, yes | 05:25 |
| ftg2 | dragonkeeper: try chmod u+x yourfile | 05:25 |
| ftg2 | dragonkeeper: will change it for user (you) only.. alternatively you could use g for group, or o for others | 05:25 |
| shodue | _jesse_, That makes sense. I suppose I want to install openssh-server | 05:26 |
| _jesse_ | shodue: yep yep | 05:26 |

| ranjan | Hi all. | 05:55 |
| ranjan | i have a local mail server configured , but i am not able to send mail to yahoo server | 05:56 |
| ranjan | i mean yahoo mail accounts | 05:56 |
| ranjan | how can i send mail to yahoo mail accounts | 05:56 |
| ectospasm | ranjan: are you going through a mail relay? | 05:57 |
| ranjan | ectospasm, yes. | 05:57 |
| ectospasm | ranjan: it could be that Y! Mail doesn't accept mail from that relay | 05:57 |
| ranjan | ectospasm, why is it so? but i am able to send mail to gmail. | 05:58 |
| ectospasm | ranjan: maybe Yahoo! has identified the relay as an open relay, so it denies mail | 05:58 |
| ranjan | ectospasm, is there any way to make yahoo accept my mail? | 05:58 |
| Nasha | Is it a free mail relay> | 05:58 |
| Nasha | ectospasm beat me to it | 05:59 |
| ectospasm | ranjan: use a different relay | 05:59 |
| ranjan | ectospasm, Nasha please excuse me, can you make me understand what mail relay is? | 05:59 |
| ectospasm | ranjan: setting up a Gmail relay is fairly trivial | 05:59 |
| ectospasm | ranjan: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/11/11/relaying-postfix-smtp-via-smtpgmailcom/ | 06:00 |
| Nasha | Essentially it's a mail server that will actually send your email for you | 06:00 |
| nafri | hello, where can i find menu.lst file in ubuntu 10.10 | 06:00 |
| ranjan | Nasha, then my its my mail server thats the relay/ | 06:00 |
| ectospasm | !grub2 | nafri | 06:01 |
| ubottu | nafri: 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 | 06:01 |
| Nasha | nafri: I have also noticed since 10.10 there is no default menu.lst | 06:01 |
| nafri | ectospasm: i need to turn off acpi in grub2... can you please guide me which file i need to modify? | 06:01 |
| ectospasm | ranjan: as an effort to stop spam, most big mailhubs will only accept mail from approved SMTP servers | 06:02 |
| ectospasm | nafri: try /etc/default/grub | 06:02 |
| ranjan | ectospasm, so that means there is no way to send mail to yahoomail from our local mail relay server isnt it? | 06:02 |
| ectospasm | ranjan: probably, or get your local relay server to be accepted by Yahoo! Exactly how is left as an exercise for the reader | 06:02 |
| mneptok | ranjan: not necesaarily. many SMTP servers check the origin server, and reject the mail if the origin is an *open* SMTP relay | 06:03 |
| mneptok | ranjan: lock down your SMTP and you may find that other hosts start trusting you. | 06:03 |
| Nasha | nafri: or /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 06:03 |
| elyos | as long as you have proper reverse dns entry, yahoo should accept the message | 06:03 |
| elyos | (and are not on any blacklist by your IP) | 06:04 |
| ranjan | mneptok, elyos ok | 06:04 |
| ranjan | mneptok, but how to lock down SMTP? | 06:04 |
| ectospasm | ranjan: those questions are outside the scope of this channel | 06:04 |
| mneptok | ranjan: disallow connections from outside the local subnet, for one | 06:04 |
| ranjan | mneptok, let me try. thank you. | 06:05 |
| mneptok | ranjan: be aware, asking "how do i lock down my SMTP server?" is usually a pretty good indicator you should not be adminning a mail host. | 06:05 |
| mneptok | ranjan: would you take your car to a mechanic that was amazed by your "horseless carriage?" ;) | 06:06 |

| benuid0 | ectospasm, I'm going to look for a windows CD, but I most likely will not be able to get my hands on one until tomrrow or the next day | 06:24 |
| ectospasm | al_nz1: egrep -v "^$" will remove blank lines | 06:24 |
| al_nz1 | ectospasm, how do you point that to a file? | 06:24 |
| kesia | anybody here ever had the same problem with me and could resolved it ? | 06:25 |
| ectospasm | al_nz1: egrep -v "^$" > file.txt | 06:26 |
| ubuXubu | kesia Pop in a linux live CD, go to Gparted, select the partition and remove it. | 06:26 |
| ubuXubu | if thats what u really want | 06:26 |
| ectospasm | kesia: or, boot 10.10 and do it from there | 06:26 |
| al_nz1 | ectospasm, i am begining to wonder if there are some special charatcers on those lines because they are not getting deleted | 06:27 |
| al_nz1 | ectospasm, how would i check? | 06:27 |
| ectospasm | al_nz1: look at the file in a hex editor | 06:27 |
| ubuXubu | but i think it cool to have both cos 904 was awesome | 06:27 |
| Nasha | was the text file created in windows? Could be windows line breaks | 06:28 |
| Four2zero | hello everyone im trying to install mysql-db and i keep getting /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (2: No such file or directory)/var/lib/dbpkg/lock | 06:28 |
| ectospasm | al_nz1: or try this: egrep -v "^[[:space:]]*$" file1.txt > file2.txt | 06:28 |
| benuid0 | ectospasm, should I expect a Windows CD to work? Are there any other options I can try right now? | 06:28 |
| kesia | ubuXubu: hemmm... I wish I had big memory on my computer I would installed many OS | 06:28 |
| ectospasm | benuid0: you need to see if it just doesn't like GRUB, or something more fundamental | 06:29 |
| ectospasm | benuid0: if you can't boot off the LiveCD/USB image you used to install, then it's probably something more fundamental | 06:29 |
| al_nz1 | ectospasm, there is no spaces on the blank lines | 06:29 |
| ubuXubu | kesia i think u mean hard drive | 06:29 |
| kesia | ectospasm how to do it from 1010 | 06:29 |
| kesia | yes, ubuXubu | 06:30 |
| ectospasm | kesia: boot 10.10 and load gparted/fdisk | 06:30 |
| ectospasm | al_nz1: then use a hex editor to see if there are nonprinting control characters on those lines | 06:30 |
| CalebWTRU | Does anyone know how to remove ubuntu from my partition? I'm not really having that much fun with it and find that what is in ubuntu, windows does a lot better. Sorry. It also slows down my games :( | 06:31 |

| Four2zero | hello everyone im trying to install mysql-db and i keep getting /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (2: No such file or directory) and then E: Unable to lock administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root ? | 06:31 |
| CalebWTRU | I also want to remove grub | 06:31 |
| Four2zero | No matter if is sudo is used | 06:31 |
| mneptok | Four2zero: is another package manager running? | 06:31 |
| CalebWTRU | anyone? :) | 06:32 |
| geekbri | Why would yozu want to | 06:32 |
| sol326 | Using esxi to test a few SAN setups on same server... But when I try to use Ubuntu on 2 nics with openfiler setup on the other 2 nics of a 4 nic card.. Ubuntu seems to also see same IP as Openfiler and ubuntus DNS gets all screwed up and can't update | 06:32 |
| ActionParsnip | CalebWTRU: install another bootloader over the top of it then | 06:32 |
| sol326 | I think I've narrowed it down to the fact that openfiler uses 255.255.255.255 for the iscsi target to see it and thus creating that new subnet on the whole card instead of just the two I set up in the virtual network | 06:32 |
| st__ | CalebWTRU, which windows version do you have? | 06:32 |
| CalebWTRU | I want to uninstall ubuntu too, do I just reinstall the windows bootloader | 06:32 |
| mneptok | CalebWTRU: ##windows can tel you how to best re-install the Windows bootloader. | 06:32 |
| ectospasm | CalebWTRU: use Disk Manager in windows to wipe the partitions | 06:32 |
| CalebWTRU | ok.. | 06:32 |
| CalebWTRU | thanks | 06:32 |
| CalebWTRU | thought it was that simple | 06:32 |
| CalebWTRU | was just wondering | 06:32 |
| CalebWTRU | ok | 06:32 |

| benuid0 | I can't boot off the liveCD. and I can't try Windows until tomorrow. But are there any search terms I can type into google to read what's been written about my situation? | 06:36 |
| ectospasm | benuid0: you haven't explained why it won't boot the liveCD | 06:36 |
| ectospasm | benuid0: I've seen some machines choke on GRUB | 06:36 |
| ectospasm | benuid0: if you can boot the LiveCD, try to install LILO instead | 06:37 |
| Four2zero | mneptok no other package manager is running in the background | 06:37 |
| ActionParsnip | benuid0: if you can't boot to the livecd/usb environment, you have bigger issues than grub | 06:38 |
| benuid0 | I've booted and installed the linux livecd when the machine had windows on it. After instalation I shut down and turned on, and then the screen was black | 06:38 |
| ActionParsnip | benuid0: what happens when you try? | 06:38 |
| ectospasm | benuid0: check to make sure your BIOS isn't skipping your CD device | 06:38 |
| ActionParsnip | benuid0: websearch for: ubuntu black screen boot ,click on the ubuntugeek link | 06:39 |
| benuid0 | CD is set to first in the boot order, which is how I initially installed. Is there anything else to check? | 06:39 |

| randall84_ | ActionParsnip, I'm on a laptop, so I have no mouse wheel | 06:43 |

| benuid0 | ActionParsnip: No, and I'm not sure it relates to my problem (?). I have no terminal. I only have Hewlett-Packard BIOS | 06:43 |
| ActionParsnip | randall84_: ctrl + shift + plus then | 06:43 |
| rww | jinse: Which language do you speak? | 06:43 |
| Four2zero | so i do: sudo apt-get sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a | 06:43 |

| ActionParsnip | randall84_: look at the top ofthebrowser...next to edit... | 06:47 |
| lea123 | ubuXubu: To be honest I haven't the greatest joy with Ubuntu. It doesn't seem any faster or less buggier than Windows Vista from the user perspective in terms of office applications , chats, browsing etc.. Did I say to have a voice chat is a pain in Ubuntu. My screens often freezes .... | 06:47 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: its a smaller install and needs a hell of a lot less ram | 06:47 |
| ectospasm | !ot | lea123 | 06:48 |

| ubuXubu | lea123 how much ram do u have | 06:48 |
| saganbyte | Is there some way I can check if my Ubuntu 10.10 installation has gone right. Coz I m noticing some minor problems while using it. | 06:48 |
| ActionParsnip | randall84_: if its in firefox, its there | 06:49 |

| lea123 | ActionParsnip: NOPE I can't understand why people keep saying its a small install and therefore merrits any consideration when it doesn't do the job when its meant to be doing without a hitch.. I have 2GB RAM. Heck I care if its trying to scrimp and only use 1 MB.. | 06:50 |
| saganbyte | ectospasm, For example Brasserio throws an error everytime I burn a data CD and The settings to avoid putting the computer to sleep do not work. It sticks to the default | 06:50 |
| ActionParsnip | randall84_: view a regular web page and look at the top, a stock firefox hasit | 06:50 |
| randall84_ | ActionParsnip, yes, typical firefox browser has it... however the facebook photo uploader does not | 06:50 |
| ectospasm | saganbyte: what's the error? And where are you setting the sleep configuration? | 06:51 |
| Four2zero | ActionParsnip http://paste.ubuntu.com/535457/ | 06:51 |
| lea123 | The dialog boxes for instances are opened up without a parent control resulting that the dialog boxes are flying all over the desktop | 06:51 |
| saganbyte | ectospasm, In Brasero I continually get ' Some files may be corrupted on the disc' and I m trying to disable the sleep mode in Power Management | 06:51 |
| lea123 | I am sure thats a buggy implementation of GUI in Ubuntu. Purist will argue Linux was never meant for GUI desktops Sure | 06:51 |
| benuid0 | ActionParsnip: either this is going way over my head because I'm a noob, or that page doesn't relate to my problem. Here's what it says: | 06:52 |
| benuid0 | Quote: " * At install screen press F6 and select nomodeset and install Ubuntu as usual. | 06:52 |
| benuid0 | * On first boot after install, press e on getting the GRUB bootloader. | 06:52 |
| saganbyte | ectospasm, I burned the same data from a mac and it worked correctly | 06:52 |
| benuid0 | " | 06:52 |
| benuid0 | I have no install screen. I have no grub. I can only press esc, f1, f2, f9, f10, f11, f12 to access BIOS and basic system stuff from HP | 06:52 |

| ActionParsnip | lea123: run: free -m ,look at the top left value, will be somewhere around the 400Mb mark. Run: df -h , used space for / outside of home will be 3Gb. I'dlove to see you get full office productivity, video editting and all the stuff in ubuntu in 3gb on vista | 06:52 |
| randall84_ | ActionParsnip, the zoom function works on regular sites, but not for increasing thumbnail size on the photo uploader | 06:52 |
| saganbyte | ectospasm, I had installed Ubuntu 10.10 in the morning and then again in the evening on the same machine due to some other reason | 06:52 |
| lea123 | But it doesn't help the cause for Ubuntu to be a popular replacement for Windows Vista.. | 06:52 |
| jonthue | hello i cant find out how to zoom out on desktop cube | 06:52 |
| ActionParsnip | randall84_: use the basic uploader, could try the zoom feature in compiz if you use it | 06:53 |
| saganbyte | ectospasm, The earlier installation had worked correctly | 06:53 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: try a different UI then, there are plenty to choose | 06:53 |
| ActionParsnip | benuid0: it does, apply the nomodeset boot option | 06:53 |
| ActionParsnip | benuid0: hold shift at boot | 06:54 |
| ActionParsnip | randall84_: moan to the site then | 06:54 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: My system monitor shows 403.6 MiB in use with no swap being in use | 06:54 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: its the nature of Linux, you have choice! | 06:54 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: exactly, vista would crumble with 512mb ram. Linux will run brilliantly | 06:55 |
| lea123 | Yeah that seems to be the popular argument... When you want to travel from Place A to Place B you need to learn only driving not automobile engineering as its the case with ubuntu :) | 06:55 |

| benuid0 | Boot as in power on (just to be totally unambiguous)? Nothing's happening. On my compter f10=bios configuration and shift doesn't seem to be doing anything | 06:56 |

| jonthue | i got 4 workstATION | 06:57 |
| jonthue | YES | 06:57 |
| TeslaTony | jonthue: The way I believe it does that is by middle-clicking on the desktop, and dragging. You can change those settings if you like. Also, do you have Desktop Cube enabled? | 06:57 |
| ectospasm | saganbyte: I dunno then, it works for me | 06:57 |

| Visuex | TeslaTony you can do it that way but I never changed my default setting for it which was ctrl + alt and left mouse | 06:58 |

| ectospasm | lea123: don't forget that humans hate change. Anything that isn't familiar is booed. Case in point: A former roommate HATED MacOSX after having used my Ubuntu installation for nearly a year | 06:59 |
| lea123 | I tried using Unity from Ubuntu Software resource all that I got then is a white screen. I was scared out of my wits but some how I searched on the Internet through another machine and ran some mumbo jumbo commands to get it up . Yeah sure ubuntu requires lesser memory but 2 machines :) one for running and another one for debugging. Never ever I have had Windows Vista Freezin up on me. On... | 06:59 |
| lea123 | ...Ubuntu I have had to do a hard boot several times. Maybe its trying to do everything with a small memory space but i would say its largely unnecessary when you have it at your disposal | 06:59 |
| Visuex | jonthue so did I in the beginning lol I randomly slipped off them and it kept going so harah | 06:59 |
| ectospasm | lea123: Unity isn't ready for prime time | 06:59 |
| ectospasm | lea123: if you're not willing to do some debugging, you shouldn't use it | 07:00 |
| TeslaTony | Visuex: That was the default setting I had. That was also one or two versions ago, though... | 07:00 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: that's a gripe with unity then. Not ubuntu. The OS worked before right? | 07:00 |
| Visuex | yea Ubuntu moving to unity is kind of iffy to me...I like gnome and dont really want a netbook gui | 07:00 |
| jonthue | cant i change the binding do just do the zoom with ctrl alt rather then mouse, | 07:00 |
| msabanal | quit | 07:00 |
| Visuex | TeslaTony oh ok | 07:00 |
| lea123 | ectospasm: THats what is the point probably if you don't know debugging don't use Ubuntu maybe.. | 07:01 |

| evdaemonia | ok, trying... | 07:01 |
| Visuex | yea nautilus should | 07:02 |
| evdaemonia | the whole drive though | 07:02 |

| Visuex | jonthue you could use my setup if you want...I hate using the mouse when I dont have too :) | 07:02 |
| ectospasm | evdaemonia: you may need to run nautilus as root to do that | 07:02 |
| benuid0 | ActionParsnip: you told me to hold shift and the link you directed me to says to press f6. Neither do anything for me. Maybe I need to be talked to like a 4 year old because I'm still at square 1 | 07:02 |

| ectospasm | evdaemonia: see gksudo | 07:04 |
| rww | !gksudo | 07:04 |
| Visuex | sudo = root | 07:04 |
| ubottu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 07:04 |

| benuid0 | I've installed linux from a livecd after powering on and off I get a few seconds to enter bios, and other than that a black screen, no terminal no grub | 07:06 |
| geekbri | mbrochh did you traceroute to make sure theres no a connection issue ? | 07:06 |
| dr0id | at what time intervals is the /tmp folder files cleaned ? | 07:06 |
| mbrochh | geekbri, i can connect to the server, even with FileZilla or with ssh, so the connection is definetly there | 07:06 |
| Visuex | benuid0 sorry not sure when he is on but he was on earlier today at like 2 CST | 07:06 |
| Visuex | jonthue just letting you know I havent forgotten :) | 07:07 |
| mbrochh | geekbri, the file even gets created on the server, it is just empty and i get the timeout error | 07:07 |
| jonthue | wow ty, | 07:07 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: BTW the Free -m command shows 1884.. Now thats a worry figure isn't it ? | 07:07 |
| jonthue | i am new to this but i will get it down pack | 07:07 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: are you running firefox? | 07:08 |
| evdaemonia | i am getting many error msgs as root in nautilus | 07:08 |
| evdaemonia | is that normal? | 07:08 |
| ActionParsnip | evdaemonia: what messages? | 07:08 |
| evdaemonia | for exampl | 07:08 |
| evdaemonia | i typed smb://myNAS | 07:08 |
| kish | why do smb as root | 07:09 |
| geekbri | mbrochh: check the secure log for any strange errors ? | 07:09 |
| ActionParsnip | evdaemonia: why are you accessing that as root? | 07:09 |
| evdaemonia | i am trying to mount my network drive :( | 07:09 |
| mbrochh | where can i find it | 07:09 |
| mbrochh | äge | 07:09 |
| mbrochh | @geekbri | 07:09 |
| kish | why do that as root | 07:09 |
| evdaemonia | someone just told me to do it on here! | 07:10 |
| ActionParsnip | evdaemonia: using that won't mount the resource. | 07:10 |
| kish | logs are in /var/log | 07:10 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: Yes I am Don't tell me not to use firefox | 07:10 |
| evdaemonia | oh right | 07:10 |
| evdaemonia | so how do i do it? | 07:10 |
| ActionParsnip | evdaemonia: it'll show the files and will give access but its not mounted | 07:10 |
| mbrochh | geekbri, which log should i look into... there is no secure.log | 07:10 |
| === mtb is now known as Guest99274 | ||
| benuid0 | ActionParsnip, thought you were going to be gone for the night (at least here, where it is night). You told me to press shift at boot which doesn't do anything | 07:11 |
| geekbri | mbrochh perhaps auth.log one sec ill try to figure it out | 07:11 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: I think its one of the worst browsers around. It chews ram like a fat kid at a free pie carnival | 07:11 |
| mbrochh | geekbri, auth.log is empty | 07:11 |
| ActionParsnip | benuid0: its 7:10am here, on the way to work | 07:11 |
| mbrochh | geekbri, bullshit its not empty :) | 07:12 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: :) | 07:12 |
| lea123 | But it ran amazingly on Vista ... | 07:12 |
| lea123 | With a lot of power to pick and choose that you don't have it on IE.. | 07:12 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: if you close the browser amaxingly awhole | 07:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Tonne of ram is free | 07:13 |
| geekbri | mbrocch i wax going to sa y if you can ssh in it shouldnt be empty! | 07:13 |
| mbrochh | geekbri, there are many of these: Nov 23 08:03:35 sshd[3316]: pam_env(sshd:setcred): Unable to open env file: /etc/default/locale: No such file or directory | 07:13 |
| evdaemonia | oh, another thing i noticed (as new linux user) is my videos suddenly lose colour whilst player, no matter which player i am using | 07:14 |
| evdaemonia | anyone heard of this? | 07:14 |
| lea123 | ActionParnsip : OK I will check that Right now I can't since I am using chatzilla for IRC . BTW Which browser will you recommend then ? | 07:14 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: I use arora and chromium daily. Ram use rarely goes high but I don't use 100 tabs like some folks do | 07:14 |
| evdaemonia | they lose the red or something, coz there's a strong tinge of blue/grey | 07:14 |
| geekbri | mbrochh what is the scp command youre using look like | 07:14 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: I fall in the category of 200 tabs | 07:14 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: it may be different for you. I have a tonne of tweaks to my OS | 07:15 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: I like to use it with Zotero hence my inertia | 07:15 |
| benuid0 | ActoinParsnip, should I try to talk to you some other time of day? I want to go to sleep within an hour or so. I still have't figured out the ubuntugeek link or how to get pressing shift at boot to do anything | 07:15 |
| mbrochh | geekbri, scp klmscraper.py martin@1.2.3.4:/home/martin/src/klmscraper/ | 07:15 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: 200 tabs using more than 1gb ram sounds right. My girlfriends vista lappy has 1gb ram and its slow as snot, she also uses firefox | 07:16 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: what's zotero? | 07:16 |
| dr0id | at what time intervals is the /tmp folder files cleaned ? | 07:16 |
| Visuex | jonthue almost done :) | 07:16 |
| geekbri | mbrochh and that directory exists already and martin has write permission to it ? | 07:16 |
| Visuex | decided to throw in a freebie to a question you didnt ask | 07:17 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: it fabulous referencing tool - from the heaven to be precise | 07:17 |
| mbrochh | geekbri yeah i am ssh'ed into the server with the user martin and created the directory... as i said... the file even appears, but its empty | 07:17 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: sweet. Sounds cool.started loading the page to check it | 07:18 |
| geekbri | hhrrmmm | 07:18 |
| geekbri | silly question can you scp fles from the server instead of to it ? | 07:18 |
| _jesse_ | geekbri: yep | 07:19 |
| mbrochh | i will try | 07:19 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: sounds like something I couldve used in uni. Not bad | 07:19 |
| benuid0 | ActionParsnip: it's great if you end up with tons of tabs and bookmarks when researching. Mendeley is also really good if you get a lot of PDFs for research-related stuff | 07:19 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: Another point as you said - I have a tonne of tweaks but a normal user cannot aspire to learn and implement all of them. If I were to hire an expert sure it would cost be the price of a diamond | 07:19 |
| rww | geekbri: yep, just switch the arguments around. I do "ssh elbereth:~/foo ~/bar" frequently. | 07:19 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: explains the tabs too. I suggest you research offline too (books etc) | 07:19 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: to get Ubuntu to get in the speed as you are currently working | 07:20 |
| === eric is now known as Guest1671 | ||
| geekbri | oh m sorry i wasnt asking a question for an answer i was asking hm if he was able to do so | 07:20 |
| rww | oh, my bad. I failed at reading scrollback :) | 07:20 |
| geekbri | hey im fine wit it ! | 07:20 |
| mbrochh | geekbri, downloading the file did work | 07:21 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: they can, just as you have learned windows tweaks. Its all about experience. You have probably used windows a good while and you are comparing itwith your limited exposure to linux. | 07:21 |
| geekbri | who is the owner and what are the permissions of the target directory | 07:21 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: I think you didn't read the last part from Heaven. You can read the books from the library and use the reference online from Amazon to do the dirty work ..all this seamlessly works with Zotero, Open office and Firefox | 07:22 |
| H1963 | :) | 07:22 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: TRue I think i might be comparing unfavorably.. | 07:22 |
| geekbri | mbrochh thats one strange problem thats for sure | 07:22 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: my asus p1-ah2 pundit needs a tonne of effort to make work in vista, with hardy and later, 100% hardware works out of the box. Vista doesn't even detect my wired connection... | 07:23 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: andfinding sound drivers took an age. Works straight away without a hitch in ubuntu | 07:23 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: But I am only use open source things on Vista :) thats my exposure to VISTA. Thunderbird, Enigmail, Open Office, Songbird, VLC , Zotero etc. | 07:23 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: why not use outlook, windows media player, ms office, | 07:24 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: I shall take that with sack of salt if you say windows Vista didn't detect the drivers.. | 07:24 |
| benuid0 | ActionParsnip: Is my computer a lost cause? Hopefully I will be able to get windows on it and then reinstall linux using lilo, which i currently only know is a grub alternative | 07:25 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: it picked up sound, it was just the wrong driver. It didn't come with nforce drivers for my nvidia chip ootb | 07:25 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: On the contrary Totem just won't play DVDs on 10.10 untill I downloaded VLC .... | 07:25 |
| geekbri | mbrocch did you customize your shell logn scripts on thatb server ? | 07:25 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: that's a legal restriction. Installing vlc install libdvdread4 which is needed. Not all countries are permitted dvd decoding (or something like that) so its not included | 07:26 |
| xuekan | hey is anyone knows the #imdb server name? | 07:26 |
| geekbri | mbrochh wha happens if you ssh servername /usr/bin/true ? | 07:27 |
| === Peer is now known as Guest94473 | ||
| Karen_m | to get my HP printer working, the script they give me relies on python-devel. I've tried to install it with aptitude but it doesn't exist. Any ideas? | 07:27 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: linuxmint comes with a lot of proprietary stuff rolled in like nvidia drivers and ati drivers and such but isn't supported here | 07:27 |
| Visuex | totem vs vlc is a never ending debate :) at least to me because VLC is overall better but Totem plays better for streams | 07:27 |
| mbrochh | geekbri, bash: /usr/bin/true: No such file or directory | 07:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Visuex: mplayer is awesome imho, its been around the block a good while | 07:28 |
| geekbri | mbrochh bah. did you edit your bashrc a all ? | 07:28 |
| mbrochh | no | 07:28 |
| Karen_m | python-dev | 07:28 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: Did you mean Chrome ?? | 07:29 |
| geekbri | mbrochh well youve stumped me. | 07:29 |
| ActionParsnip | lea123: you can use chrome. I prefer the daily chromium build which goes on the make chrome | 07:29 |
| mbrochh | :( | 07:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Time to make some money. Peace out kids | 07:29 |
| geekbri | mbrochh sometimes if you put stuff in bashrc ats supposed to be in bash | 07:29 |
| geekbri | profle it wll cause scp to puke bt not ss bt i dont know whas wrong sorry :( | 07:30 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: I see mozilla, google seems to have a bias with Windows OS and they are the biggest votaries of open source development | 07:30 |
| lea123 | ActionParsnip: Am I right in assuming that ... It seems like a volte face when it comes to Linux distributions | 07:31 |
| mbrochh | geekbri, hmm i removed my pub key from the authorized keys and set PasswordAuthentication yes ... but still i getht the timeout... superrrrrrr weird | 07:32 |
| geekbri | mbrochh i know it seems simple but maybe try copying a different file or copying t to a different dir | 07:33 |
| oldschool | cbill or mneptok are you around am trying to upgrade now devede and mencoder am useing ubuntu 8.4 hardy | 07:34 |

| Four2zero | i have followed this guide: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-erros.en.html | 07:35 |
| Visuex | ActionParsnip isnt totem and mplayer cousins? I know mplayer is more powerful with mencoder but as a player arent they almost the same | 07:35 |

| mbrochh | geekbri, hmpf.. just scped my pub key to the machine again... this works... so the dir or file must be the problem | 07:36 |

| arooni-mobile | is there a good and not horribly storage intensive way to have ubuntu index my file system so i can quickly search for files/documents in the Documents directory by name, but ideally by content? | 07:39 |

| Visuex | arooni-mobile you dont really need to do that with linux as the search is very fast..but by content do you mean like content in a text file? | 07:40 |

| arooni-mobile | / | 07:40 |
| vIkSiT | Any ideas/suggestions on what I could change to make this happen? | 07:41 |
| Visuex | arooni-mobile you would just use nautilus search or the search for files option in accessories | 07:41 |
| Four2zero | this bug is a pain in the a55: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/29954 | 07:41 |

| theZagnut | it should however be available | 07:46 |
| mgj | theZagnut, perhaps a process is blocking it | 07:46 |
| Four2zero | the problem is synaptic is broken and will not install anything or update or upgrade as well. | 07:46 |
| theZagnut | mgj, is there any way to check? | 07:47 |
| cbill | oldschool: ok let me look a little more | 07:47 |
| fzlamn | hi | 07:47 |
| mgj | theZagnut, hmm not that i can think of im afraid | 07:47 |
| mgj | theZagnut, perhaps you can umount it and mount it again? | 07:47 |
| geekbri | lsof? | 07:47 |

| bonezAU | hi, i have ubuntu installed on /dev/sda1 and win7 installed on /dev/sdc1. 3x HDD's in my PC. Any idea how I can get Grub2 to detect my Windows install and add it to the boot menu? I'm out of ideas | 07:52 |
| theZagnut | geekbri, A USB cable that connects to a serial device | 07:52 |
| theZagnut | if I connect the device to my other computer it works | 07:52 |
| theZagnut | on my laptop however it doesn't | 07:52 |
| oldschool | cbill on the old one the movies are comeing out of sync and the new one has more option that i could need later on | 07:53 |
| theZagnut | so something on my laptop must be the problem | 07:53 |
| geekbri | when you unplug the dvice and plug adifferent device in oes that one work ? | 07:53 |
| cbill | oldschool, might need to install from source, im still reading | 07:53 |

| mgj | bonezAU, i have never experienced a case where grub failed to detect a windows installation. But if it did, i guess you could add an entry yourself. | 07:56 |
| mgj | !grub | 07:57 |
| ubottu | 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. | 07:57 |
| theZagnut | geekbri, thanks anyways :) I think it is a bluetooth module (btusb) that is messing it up | 07:57 |
| theZagnut | I have blacklisted it, now will reboot | 07:57 |
| bonezAU | mgj: I installed Linux first, then Windows after. Before I installed Windows I disconnected the Ubuntu drive, so it didn't touch grub. | 07:57 |
| Ghostly | bonezAU, a grub update may work | 07:57 |
| mgj | bonezAU, ahh okay. Your best bet is probably the grub howto's on how to manually install another entry | 07:58 |
| scoup | can any1 help with dhcp-server configuring? | 07:58 |

| mgj | bonezAU, otherwise take Ghostly's advice and check out "grub update" | 08:01 |
| jiMubao | can anyone help me ? | 08:01 |
| oldschool | let me check again | 08:01 |
| cbill | oldschool, ok | 08:01 |
| mgj | Silicone, im sorry, dont have much experience with different keyboard layouts. It just seems unlikely that a russian (or any) keyboard layout would make your system unstable.... | 08:02 |
| scoup | how to make my dhcp3-server give the default route to my dhcp clients? | 08:03 |
| Silicone | mgj, at home also some websites are not working well, not loading as it should... virtual box creates a partition only at work, doing the same at home, with no luck :( | 08:03 |
| mgj | Silicone, hmm strange | 08:04 |
| Silicone | mgj, i was thinking that linux is the most stable system.. hmmm | 08:05 |
| mgj | Silicone, my first guess would be that it was bad hardware causing your problems, but since you experience it on 2 different pc's...... i dont know, its strange | 08:06 |
| Silicone | mgj, yes, btw i downloaded the system image from official site... and does it 2 times, at work and at home, so it can't be any issue when i burned the disk\ | 08:08 |
| karthee | hi .. i updated the grub today .. and now i m getting grub recover> prompt .. Any ideas how do I fix this from this prompt itself ? | 08:08 |
| oldschool | cbill i have tryed this one devede_3.16.9-0~rastersoft1_all.deb and a few other ones like this and i get error dependency is not satisfiable python-gtk2 | 08:08 |
| cbill | oldschool, ok hold on | 08:09 |
| oldschool | ok | 08:09 |
| s0126h | does linux have 2 different iso file for mac and pc? or same iso works on both | 08:09 |
| mgj | Silicone, =(. Im afraid i cannot help you, perhaps someone else is better at debugging your problem | 08:09 |
| nigelb | s0126h: depends on your system, if its powerpc, its different | 08:10 |
| s0126h | does linux have 2 different iso file for intelmac and pc? or same iso works on both | 08:10 |
| Silicone | mgj, thx for your time anyway ;) | 08:10 |
| mgj | np | 08:10 |
| cbill | oldschool, there might not be a way, first off though; how much ram do you have? and are you using the PC while encoding with devede? | 08:12 |
| Keith-BlindUser | Hi all. I'm curious if anyone knows how to bring up the menu where you choose screenreader/magnifyer and such on the Ubuntu Maveric CD? I'd like to install/test the CD, and it's been ages since I've last used an Ubuntu CD. | 08:16 |
| Four2zero | i ran this command 'ps -A' and am looking for an additional process 'synaptic' what to look for ? | 08:17 |
| oldschool | cbill i have 8 gb ram on the server and i do use it for some internet use and downloading and uploading when encoding with devede | 08:18 |
| Ghostly | karthee, last time i had that problem i had to use a live cd and chroot method, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202 | 08:18 |
| karthee | Ghostly: okay thanks.. | 08:18 |
| oldschool | cibill its also a quad core | 08:19 |
| cbill | oldschool, well basic browsing and network activity shouldnt effect it, what processor? | 08:19 |
| cbill | oldschool ok | 08:19 |
| cbill | oldschool, i dont see an easy way to upgrade you python-gtk | 08:20 |
| oldschool | cbill :( and its that i need the python-gtk upgrade it | 08:22 |
| cbill | oldschool, ya the new version of devede requires a version of python-gtk you dont have | 08:23 |
| cbill | oldschool, im looking into uprading that, but this is one of those dependency nightmares you hear about lol | 08:23 |
| oldschool | cbill ok thanks i do really appreciate your help and time i realy need to get the new devede working | 08:25 |
| cbill | oldschool, are you running 32 or 64 bit? | 08:27 |
| zapo-2c1 | looking for help with Ubuntu 10.10 /etc/network/interfaces.tail not tailing | 08:28 |
| oldschool | cbill the server is 64 bits but i belive ubuntu 8.4 desktop is 32 bits | 08:28 |
| cbill | oldschool, are we trying to install on the server or the desktop? | 08:29 |
| oldschool | on the server | 08:29 |
| MTecknology | oldschool: 'uname -a' tells you 64 or 32 - x86_64 = 64 | 08:29 |
| cbill | oldschool, but its running ubuntu desktop 8.04? | 08:30 |
| MTecknology | zapo-2c1: hm? | 08:30 |
| oldschool | yes | 08:30 |
| Ghostly | i'm curious I have a button on my mouse that is unused for now, can I have that button correspond to the key combination Control + W | 08:31 |
| cbill | oldschool, dont use the term server then, it only adds confusion; so you have 8gigs of ram on this 32bit os? | 08:31 |
| oldschool | MTecknology am new to all this | 08:31 |
| MTecknology | oldschool: Could you give us one of the lines from this - cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep 'model name' | 08:31 |
| brontosaurusrex | i cant seem to figure out why 10.10 would auto-log out after few hours, everything that starts with "auto" in bios is turned off, any clues before i install something else? | 08:31 |
| rfmonk | I rebooted to "no instance data found in start-local init: cloud-init-local main process terminated with status 1 | 08:32 |
| rfmonk | is my installation fried? | 08:32 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: the bios has nothing to do with that - check your power management settins | 08:32 |
| rfmonk | it wont go past that | 08:32 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, everything is turned off afaik, let me check again .... | 08:32 |
| rfmonk | ive been on google for an hour with a live cd in terminal | 08:32 |
| rfmonk | i could use some help | 08:32 |
| c0psrul3 | me too... | 08:33 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: screen saver settings too | 08:33 |
| c0psrul3 | you first | 08:33 |
| rfmonk | links sucks | 08:33 |
| rfmonk | well it doesnt suck but id prefer firefox | 08:33 |
| cbill | oldschool, you can attempt to install this .deb of python-gtk, but i fear it will fail, lol http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/i386/python-gtk2/download | 08:34 |
| c0psrul3 | anyone have suggestions for distributing user profiles? | 08:34 |
| rfmonk | hmm ubuto! | 08:34 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, screen saver is uninstalled (i've been working on this for like 10 days allready...) | 08:34 |
| rfmonk | !ubuto | 08:34 |
| rfmonk | crap | 08:34 |
| MTecknology | rfmonk: #ubuntu-offtopic for non-support related chatter | 08:35 |
| oldschool | yes it 8 gb ram and a quad core and i guess like MTecknology i dont know 64 or 32 - x86_64 = 64 so i guess its 64 bit | 08:35 |
| c0psrul3 | MTecknology: thanks | 08:35 |
| cbill | oldschool, ok ignore that last link | 08:35 |
| rfmonk | well my ubuntu system wont boot | 08:35 |
| cbill | oldschool, try deb found here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/amd64/python-gtk2/download | 08:35 |
| rfmonk | so that is not non-supported related chatter really | 08:35 |
| amarcolino | I have files that start with a numerical format I wish to open all of them at once in terminal, which command do I use to do that? | 08:36 |
| oldschool | ok will | 08:36 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, also machine is never in idle state (it plays video all the time), or maybe idle means something else | 08:36 |
| oldschool | do that | 08:36 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: idle means you're not actively using it - typing or mouse moving | 08:37 |
| rfmonk | ive got a lot of work to get done, can anyone help me restore my system? | 08:37 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, ok then, so what do i need, a simulator of mouse movement? | 08:37 |
| MTecknology | !patience | rfmonk | 08:37 |
| ubottu | rfmonk: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 08:37 |
| rfmonk | searched already | 08:38 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: just change the settings that are logging you out | 08:38 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, also script logs shows that playback was working for about 12 hours last time | 08:38 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, i doubt there are any settings that will log-out after 12 hours? | 08:39 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: there could be - if set that way - I just don't really know off hand - run 'top -bn1 -u $USER' and pastebin the result | 08:40 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, ok | 08:40 |
| oldschool | cbill yes both failed the last one said error wrong arhitecture amd64 | 08:41 |
| oldschool | :( | 08:41 |
| cbill | oldschool, i fear upgarding the OS is the easiest solution, and thats giving you an issue as well.. | 08:42 |
| MTecknology | cbill: what exactly is his issue? | 08:42 |
| cbill | oldschool and mtecknology, what exactley was the issue when you ugraded old? | 08:43 |
| cbill | i think that would be easier to solve | 08:43 |
| oldschool | what ? | 08:44 |
| rfmonk | krikee, guess i need to reinstall everything, good thing i didnt back up anything important | 08:44 |
| cbill | oldschool when you tried to upgrade you said you were stuck at recovery, fill mtecknology in with what happened there | 08:44 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, http://paste.ubuntu.com/535475/ | 08:45 |
| rfmonk | is 10.10 still in testing? | 08:45 |
| ZackC456 | No. It's been out for a while now. | 08:45 |
| mkquist | advantages over 10.4? | 08:46 |
| MTecknology | it's newer | 08:46 |
| ok | hello | 08:46 |
| ok | what is bt? | 08:47 |
| ooboon2 | sup | 08:47 |
| ooboon2 | i r haz a question | 08:47 |
| ok | understand | 08:47 |
| ooboon2 | ??? | 08:47 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: look in gnome-power-manager properties for an option about either logging you out or locking your session | 08:47 |
| mgj | ok, bluetooth perhaps? Impossible to say without a context | 08:47 |
| oldschool | MTecknology i want to upgrade my devede to the new version am useing the old one right now and my movies are coneing out off sync and i realy need to upgrade and am useing ubuntu 8.4 desktop | 08:47 |
| MTecknology | ooboon2: 1) Just ask 2) use English | 08:47 |
| NiftyLettuce | \o gnite all ~ | 08:48 |
| ok | autoacd install for ubuntu | 08:48 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, how about uninstalling gnome power manager? | 08:48 |
| ooboon2 | any ideas on how to change the hourglass? | 08:48 |
| bullgard4 | After clicking Indicator Applet Session > Hibernate, Maverick hangs and shows: "s2disk: Snapshotting system." Keyed in characters will be echoet though. '~$ ssh 192.168.178.29' from another computer in the same LAN segment obtains: "No route to host," Is there a better solution than the Magic SysRq key? | 08:48 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: you could do that - but probably easiest to look at the options it has first | 08:48 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: I'm also seeing gnome-session which might do it | 08:48 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: also.... could you pastebin ~/.xsession-errors | 08:49 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, ok, i uninstalled the power-manager, rebooting now... | 08:50 |
| MTecknology | bullgard4: Might want to file a bug about it not being able to suspend/hibernate correctly | 08:50 |
| xukun | does anybody know why aiccu does not autostart? now I have to do sudo /etc/init.d/aiccu start | 08:51 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, gnome-session is something i use, so i dont have to deal with X directly, without it i would be pretty lost i guess | 08:51 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: I didn't say uninstall it - I said look at it's settings to see if it might do that | 08:51 |
| MTecknology | !info rcconf | xukun | 08:52 |
| ubottu | xukun: rcconf (source: rcconf): Debian Runlevel configuration tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.5ubuntu1 (maverick), package size 23 kB, installed size 132 kB | 08:52 |
| cbill | oldschool, why cant we upgrade to 10.04 again? i think we need to get you a more recent release to solve this | 08:52 |
| MTecknology | xukun: there's other tools for it too - but I love that one | 08:53 |
| MTecknology | !lts | 08:53 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) | 08:53 |
| MTecknology | hrm.. was 8.04 the last lts release? | 08:53 |
| cbill | mtecknology, yes | 08:53 |
| MTecknology | so he wants to got LTS->LTS | 08:53 |
| xukun | MTecknology, I will read that thanks a lot | 08:53 |
| cbill | mtecknology, yes, i think he tried and was stuck on recovery or something | 08:54 |
| MTecknology | oldschool: Could you explain how you tried to do the upgrade? | 08:54 |
| MTecknology | cbill: this is Server or Desktop? | 08:54 |
| cbill | mtecknology desktop | 08:55 |
| cbill | being used as a server i think, but desktop os | 08:55 |
| MTecknology | alrighty | 08:55 |
| MTecknology | Should be easy enough to figure out | 08:55 |
| cbill | mtecknology, i think, there has been some confusion there lol | 08:56 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, http://paste.ubuntu.com/535477/ | 08:56 |
| ooboon2 | how do you change the spinning hourglass in Lucid Lynx? | 08:56 |
| bullgard4 | MTecknology: I will do. The problem is that my computer will not come into this hung state every time. | 08:57 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: according to that - ntohing is crashing and causing a log out - you have something sitting somewhere that's doing it - gnome-power-manager or gnome-session is a likely culprit | 08:58 |
| brontosaurusrex | gnome-session? but isnt that a gnome desktop worker? | 08:59 |
| MTecknology | bullgard4: ooh... yucky.. I've had that happen before where the issue springs up one in every 10 hibernates or something like that... I never got it figured out | 08:59 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: I don't know off hand - I don't actually know what that thing does. (haven't used gnome or kde in years) | 09:00 |
| MTecknology | oldschool: still there? | 09:00 |
| bullgard4 | MTecknology: :-( | 09:00 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, what are u using? | 09:00 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: openbox with a stripped down everything - almost everything I use is a cli app | 09:01 |
| MTecknology | bullgard4: sorry. :( - I'd definitely try ubuntu forums or launchpad.. | 09:01 |
| ptantiku | is there a way to disable cpu scaling? | 09:02 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, i was afraid you will say 'arch with fluxbox' and my fears are now pretty much confirmed ;) | 09:02 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: I didn't like arch much - fluxbox is nice if it fits your tastes - it doesn't fit mine | 09:03 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, well, i will just restart everything and come back to bother more about the autolog subject tommorow | 09:03 |
| suigeneris | I am trying to encode an avi file for iPhone with mencoder, but I get FATAL: Cannot initialize video driver. what gives? mencoder -ovc help has the line x264 | 09:03 |

| oldschool | cbill the server am renting right now only offers ubuntu 8.4 desktop and Ubuntu Desktop 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" with x2go (BETA) | 09:03 |
| MTecknology | brontosaurusrex: I'll probably be here | 09:04 |
| bullgard4 | ptantiku: Yes. But it is not recommended. | 09:04 |
| brontosaurusrex | MTecknology, ok, thanks, i will hope it was a power-manager problem | 09:05 |
| MTecknology | oldschool: hm? | 09:05 |
| cbill | oldschool, yes, confused here too | 09:05 |
| sl33k__ | i have installed some packages usin gsyntaptic pkg manager, its not visible in applications menu? | 09:06 |
| cbill | sl33k_ what programs? | 09:06 |
| MTecknology | sl33k__: what was the package? | 09:06 |
| sl33k__ | mongodb | 09:06 |
| MTecknology | that wouldn't have a menu entry | 09:07 |
| oldschool | and ever time i try to upgrade useing the update manager or do a fresh reinstall with Ubuntu Desktop 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" with x2go (BETA) the server goes into rescue mode and i cant log back on | 09:07 |
| Rickardo1 | I´m looking for information to use my ubuntu server as a router.. can anyone give me a hint which software I shall use | 09:07 |
| sl33k__ | then how to find these apps | 09:07 |
| MTecknology | sl33k__: the command line | 09:08 |
| MTecknology | Rickardo1: As much as I love promoting Linux - BSD has the pie there. Look into pfSense | 09:08 |
| cbill | oldschool, what do you mean by renting? im confused | 09:09 |
| zani | How do I configure properly my graphic card's driver? | 09:09 |
| tim__ | hello | 09:09 |
| oldschool | cbill the server you dont buy it you rent it | 09:09 |
| zani | when I move windows they leave a track behind | 09:09 |
| ptantiku | bullgard4, cuz i have a problem when i try to watch movie on VLC, it down speed my CPU automatically | 09:10 |
| sl33k__ | MTecknology: which directory i cd, what command to run | 09:10 |
| sl33k__ | is it ./ | 09:10 |
| ptantiku | i thought it might be better to disable it before I watch movie, and start it again later | 09:10 |
| suigeneris | I am trying to encode an avi file for iPhone with mencoder, but I get FATAL: Cannot initialize video driver. what gives? mencoder -ovc help has the line x264 | 09:10 |
| MTecknology | sl33k__: You should search google for a command line basics. I 'really' think it'll help you a lot now and in the future. | 09:10 |
| cbill | oldschool, what do you mean by server? | 09:11 |
| MTecknology | sl33k__: the app installed into a directory which is in your $PATH which means you don't need cd - you just run it - it's most likely already running | 09:11 |
| MTecknology | sl33k__: You can use 'top' to see if it's running | 09:11 |
| bullgard4 | ptantiku: The downspeed is probably caused by some side effect of another bug. You better target at the main bug. | 09:11 |
| cbill | oldschool, is this like a media center thing or? is it in your home? | 09:11 |
| tim__ | i wish ubuntu would move away from the orange theme | 09:12 |
| brontosaurusrex | suigeneris, try #mplayer | 09:12 |
| ptantiku | bullgard4: i got that problem when i use virtualbox too, so i think the bug might be at OS level | 09:12 |
| ptantiku | bullgard4: or both of the programs | 09:13 |
| oldschool | cbill something like this http://www.server.lu/ | 09:13 |
| suigeneris | thanks brokendatapoint | 09:13 |
| bullgard4 | ptantiku: If the bug is at Linux kernel level, dmesg should reflect it. | 09:14 |
| suigeneris | brontosaurusrex* | 09:14 |
| cbill | oldschool, so is this at a remote location? | 09:14 |
| oldschool | yes | 09:14 |
| salil | could someone tell me what channel is for mint? | 09:14 |
| brontosaurusrex | salil, its another irc server | 09:14 |
| zani | could anyone here help me? | 09:14 |
| salil | brontosaurusrex, alrighty.. got it.. the one my XChat defaults to.. | 09:15 |
| brontosaurusrex | salil, i think here http://irc.netsplit.de/networks/SpotChat/ | 09:15 |
| MTecknology | !ask | zani | 09:15 |
| ubottu | zani: 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. :-) | 09:15 |
| ubuXubu | whennu install mint the channel link is built into the 1st page of the os salil | 09:16 |
| ptantiku | bullgard4: nothing is in dmesg, probably it's just software bug. | 09:16 |
| sniperjo | Ive got a monitor connected through the DVI port on my computer, through a vga adapter to a vga monitor and its not working, i know the monitor works because if i plug it into my macbook it works, The monitor also shows up in the display prefs, it just show an image, just a blue screen | 09:17 |
| zani | How do I configure properly my graphic card's driver? When I move windows they leave a track behind | 09:17 |
| cbill | oldschool, you may need to talk to your provider, im not sure; i had thought you had physical access to the PC | 09:17 |
| MTecknology | oldschool: is this OpenVZ or something? | 09:18 |
| bullgard4 | ptantiku: '~ubuntu-bug vlc' | 09:18 |
| bullgard4 | ptantiku: '~$ ubuntu-bug vlc' | 09:18 |
| oldschool | MTecknology whats that OpenVZ | 09:18 |
| ptantiku | bullgard4: sorry, i don't know what is that? do you want me to search the word? or it's a command? | 09:19 |
| MTecknology | oldschool: I suppose you wouldn't be able to tell.. nevermind | 09:19 |
| cbill | old school, do you have a home PC as well? | 09:19 |
| oldschool | yes | 09:20 |
| cbill | what OS? | 09:20 |
| bullgard4 | ptantiku: '~$ ubuntu-bug vlc' is a command which will report your bug to Launchpad. You'll need to be registered to Launchpad though. | 09:20 |
| oldschool | windows xp | 09:20 |

| hayg25 | saganbyte, In principle yes. But imagine the cases of huge files ... Only A can see the outside network ... so I need to go from A to access B ...Can scp or rsync do that ? | 09:30 |
| oldschool | yea download at around 2 mb/s | 09:30 |
| ubuXubu | is the fan still turnimg when it happens xfact | 09:30 |
| node357 | being ignored rocks | 09:30 |
| karthee | st__ : No .. its sda2 .. its not extended partition .. | 09:30 |
| zani | why is everyone ignoring me.. on IRC, on Ubuntu Forum | 09:31 |
| node357 | i dont think they even care... | 09:31 |
| xfact | yes, my cooling system is alright too ubuXubu | 09:31 |
| cbill | oldschool, then its going to take alot more then 4mins to download a dvd lol | 09:31 |
| node357 | i guess we have to pay for politeness, i duno | 09:31 |
| st__ | zani probably because you have esoteric problem | 09:31 |
| node357 | the internet is actually the worlds #1 excuse to be rude and ignorant to people | 09:31 |
| karthee | st__: how do you say that its extended ? | 09:32 |
| node357 | no one's even acknowledged my existence in the 12 minutes since i asked my question | 09:32 |
| zani | st_: what?? | 09:32 |
| oldschool | the dvds are around 2gb | 09:32 |
| theo | @zani: Is this a fresh installation or it happened on an existing system? | 09:32 |
| st__ | karthee, it marked as extended and contains logical partitions | 09:32 |
| node357 | zani: they mean "uncommon" problem | 09:32 |
| saganbyte | hayg25, rsync can do that but if the files are really to big then you can split them and get them in | 09:32 |
| ubuXubu | xfact what is the error message | 09:32 |
| oldschool | that i am download after converting them | 09:32 |
| xfact | I should mention, in rare cases 1 in 10-18 hrs computing my computer shuts off for no reason, and I am quiet sure about the probability of system failure there, but I do not know what causing this | 09:32 |
| zani | I had to reinstall ubuntu twice because ATI drivers crashed the system | 09:33 |
| node357 | so you can only really use ubuntu if youre a programmer or hardware expert since no one ever helps with technical problems | 09:33 |
| cbill | oldschool, well i think the best way is to contact your provider, as it sounds like your using a remote virtual machine to me | 09:33 |
| xfact | ubuXubu, I haven't tracked any error message, because it happens within the boot to login time | 09:33 |
| node357 | zani: i duno about you, but im going back to windows | 09:33 |
| mkquist | node357: i thought money and fame were the #1 reasons... | 09:33 |
| huge_idiot | Ok, so pretend for a second that I deleted hundreds of important images on a client's server. Pretend for a second that I only have SSH access to the box they were on, and would really, really like to recover them. What would be the best way to go about this? I'm looking at using Foremost, but am not sure the best way to do it | 09:33 |
| node357 | this is no support channel, its just another place to be frustrated and ignoreed | 09:34 |
| zani | @node357 WindowsXP service pack 3 torrent: 89.32% on trasmission | 09:34 |
| theo | @zani: The ATI drivers tend to cause trouble sometimes. Unless you really need 3D please refrain from installing them | 09:34 |

| xfact | @node357: is gone | 09:35 |

| hayg25 | saganbyte, do you know the command line to use rsync to copy files from B via A ? | 09:35 |
| cbill | oldschool, no, i do not; why? | 09:36 |
| psycho_oreos | there's rsync HOWTO floating around | 09:36 |

| oldschool | caues mneptok show me today how to upgrade my tran here today with command | 09:37 |
| zani | @theo yeah I know that Ubuntu isn't an OS to play, but it doesn't even provide me with the basic performance.. I mean, I could play The Elder Scroll 4 before and now I can't even move windows without seeing them blurring | 09:38 |
| joaopinto | huge_idiot, you should recoved to a different filesystem from the one the files were removed from | 09:38 |
| cbill | oldschool, ya i showed you to, though you didnt understand.. | 09:38 |
| joaopinto | zani, that is not related to "Ubuntu", that is related to your graphics card vendor | 09:38 |
| xfact | ubuXubu, will do in next reboot, thanks for instruction :) | 09:38 |
| st__ | zani, do you have firmware installed? | 09:38 |
| huge_idiot | joaopinto: Yea, I got that, I'm just not sure how to do that. I only have SSH access to this box, so how can I dump the filesystem to my HDD or something? | 09:39 |
| st__ | joaopinto, lol | 09:39 |
| zani | @joapinto when I used Vista I've never had a problem | 09:39 |
| zani | @st_ what do you mean? | 09:39 |
| theo | @zani: The NVidia drivers tend to be more stable under Ubuntu. It' s not really a problem of ubuntu or Linux but rather a problem of ATI | 09:39 |
| oldschool | i know you did am not saying you did not sorry about that but remember am new to ubruntu and am use to useing windows | 09:40 |
| st__ | of course it's problem with ubuntu's shitty drivers | 09:40 |
| joaopinto | zani, that is because your vendor cares about Visteon | 09:40 |
| joaopinto | st__, please stop being ignorante it's your vendor which provides the drivers, for both Windows and Ubuntu | 09:40 |
| cbill | oldschool, i know; but there is no magic command to install a program that is not compatible with your OS | 09:40 |

| saganbyte | hayg25, oops | 09:42 |
| oldschool | cbill i was told this befor i was told that i could have to build it up from source to run on ubuntu 8.4 desktop | 09:42 |
| saganbyte | hayg25, Pull: rsync [OPTION...] [USER@]HOST:SRC... [DEST] | 09:42 |
| zani | well, I thought that the OS should fit my need, not vice versa. Ubuntu is a beautiful system and has a great potential, but it's taking me many hours and I haven't resolved anything | 09:42 |
| nemandi | godan daginn | 09:43 |
| cbill | oldschool, you can try and build from source, but you will need to install python-gtk from source first | 09:43 |
| oldschool | but dont know how to do that and i know it will take some skills to do that | 09:43 |
| huge_idiot | Is it possible to run Photorec or Foremost over SSH? So I can just point them at the remote server and say "return any JPG files and save them on my HDD"? | 09:43 |

| hayg25 | saganbyte, Ok but From MyPC to B ... via A ... Would that word ? | 09:44 |
| joaopinto | you can clone the remote disk with dd | 09:44 |
| cbill | oldschool, download the source files; extract; cd to directory; then do ./configure, then make, then checkinstall | 09:44 |
| joaopinto | and thent use the recover tools locally | 09:44 |
| brontosaurusrex | AdvoWork, yes, issue like that was reported on this channel allready | 09:45 |
| hayg25 | saganbyte, without doing an rsync from B to A and A to MyPC | 09:45 |
| joaopinto | AdvoWork, the pidgin version available from getdeb has the certificates problem fix | 09:45 |
| cbill | !checkinstall | 09:45 |
| ubottu | checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 09:45 |

| joaopinto | huge_idiot, you just need to swap the "if" and "of", input file, and output file on the command | 09:50 |
| psycho_oreos | Test_, it isn't if you have two ## instead of # and you need to have registered nickname | 09:50 |
| psycho_oreos | Gangrel, slightly | 09:51 |
| bilalakhtar | Gangrel: both of them are different programmes that have different ways of handling dependencies, some people prefer aptitude, some apt-get | 09:51 |

| brontosaurusrex | xfact, there should be a gui where you can disable nvidia drivers | 09:54 |
| AdvoWork | joaopinto, i assume a removal first, then an install, as it doesnt appreciate updating | 09:55 |
| xfact | brokendatapoint, yes, but do you think it would be good, the desktop effects would be disabled | 09:55 |
| brontosaurusrex | xfact, i think noveau gets into action as soon they are deactivated | 09:55 |
| joaopinto | AdvoWork, you can update | 09:55 |
| joaopinto | AdvoWork, you just need to be carefull because if you add the getdeb repository it will upgrade other packages | 09:56 |
| brontosaurusrex | xfact, dunno, desktop effects do work with this machine with ati card and noveau drivers | 09:56 |
| joaopinto | only select the upgrades you really want, and then remove the getdeb repository (unless you want to use it globally) | 09:56 |
| huge_idiot | How do I determine which partition a given path is on? | 09:56 |
| brontosaurusrex | xfact, another thing to try is to enable older nvidia driver (same gui) | 09:57 |
| AdvoWork | joaopinto, any way to just do that then? | 09:57 |
| huge_idiot | fdisk -l doesn't output anything | 09:57 |
| xfact | alright | 09:57 |
| joaopinto | huge_idiot, "mount", see the the "on path", that dir is at one of those paths | 09:57 |
| juk | huge_idiot: you need sudo | 09:57 |
| joaopinto | huge_idiot, you need sudo fdisk -l | 09:58 |
| brontosaurusrex | xfact, bascially i wouldnt force anything since you will end up with cli terminal, which will be very frustrating for a noob | 09:58 |

| Jordan_U | ghufran: fdisk doesn't know anything about filesystems, so jsut the fact that fdisk lists the partition type as "W95 FAT32" doesn't actually tell you anything about what is actually on the partition. | 10:47 |
| ghufran | Jordan_U, i was using this laptop earlier and just installed ubuntu | 10:48 |
| joaopinto | huge_idiot, great :) | 10:48 |
| ghufran | Jordan_U, it was in working order and from what i recall, it was NTFS | 10:48 |
| erUSUL | bullgard4: :/ then maybe that information is lost... | 10:48 |
| ghufran | Jordan_U, it is almost all filled and i used that partition to backup my data | 10:49 |
| bullgard4 | erUSUL: Hm. | 10:49 |
| Jordan_U | ghufran: Can you still mount the partition in any other OS? | 10:49 |
| ghufran | Jordan_U, there is no OS on the laptop other than ubuntu now | 10:49 |
| ghufran | Jordan_U, would it help to first install the ntfs-3g package and see if fdisk finds out the format? | 10:50 |
| erUSUL | bullgard4: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/513644 <<< that's something we lost with the change to upstart ... | 10:50 |
| Jordan_U | ghufran: ntfs-3g should be installed by default, and fdisk knows nothing about filesystems, only msdos partition tables. | 10:51 |
| ghufran | Jordan_U, great. so what do i do now? | 10:51 |
| Jordan_U | ghufran: Did you use the Ubuntu installer to repartition or another program? | 10:52 |
| ghufran | Jordan_U, the ubuntu repartitioner | 10:52 |
| ghufran | and gparted is broken on this installation. | 10:53 |
| ghufran | i wonder why | 10:53 |
| ghufran | 64 bit installation | 10:53 |
| Jordan_U | ghufran: Broken how? | 10:53 |
| ghufran | Jordan_U, it gives an exception when i start it | 10:53 |

| st__ | shmup, use -P key | 11:28 |
| ectospasm | shmup: it's telling you removing leading / because it's a very bad idea to store absolute pathnames in a tar archive | 11:29 |
| ghufran | Jordan_U, its done through 84 % of cylinders and its still only seeing three partitions .. Linux and two other partitions whats interesting is that they are marked HFS | 11:30 |

| ndlovu | juk, nm has the option for sharing fixed connection, but seemingly not for mobile broadband | 11:31 |

| Silicone | ectospasm, javascript enabled | 11:42 |
| Silicone | ectospasm, or how you want me to check? | 11:43 |

| Silicone | ectospasm, what to do? | 11:44 |
| ectospasm | Silicone: I don't know. Looks like MS is purposefully obfuscating stuff. Again. | 11:44 |
| shmup | ectospasm, you're on a roll tonight with answers. i have one more question. if i wanted to rename, or even initially name a file i'm creating with the date. | 11:45 |
| shmup | can you point me in the right direction? | 11:45 |
| ectospasm | shmup: what, you want the date in the filename? | 11:45 |
| shmup | yes, that's what i want the tar's name to be really. | 11:45 |
| shmup | or even name-date.tar.gz but yeah, just want to know how to get the date. i see the wiki for the date format. | 11:45 |
| st__ | `date ...` | 11:46 |
| shmup | ` needed ? | 11:46 |
| ectospasm | shmup: tar -cvjf filename-$(date +%Y%m%d).tar.bz2 /path/to/archive/contents | 11:46 |
| shmup | splendid thanks ecto | 11:46 |
| ectospasm | shmup: see "man date" for formatting options | 11:46 |
| st__ | yes, they are better analog of $(...) | 11:46 |
| ectospasm | the way I did it would give you filename-20101123.tar.bz2 | 11:46 |
| Silicone | who else can help me with rendering CSS problem? | 11:46 |
| shmup | can symbols separate the date parameters? | 11:47 |
| shmup | %Y-%m | 11:47 |
| ectospasm | shmup: yes | 11:47 |
| shmup | wonderful | 11:47 |
| ectospasm | st__: `...` is NOT a better analog of $(...) | 11:47 |
| ectospasm | I find $(...) to be more readable | 11:48 |
| st__ | it is, $() is a bashism | 11:48 |
| ectospasm | st__: and what Ubuntu system doesn't have Bash? | 11:48 |
| ectospasm | st__: at least, by default doesn't have bash? | 11:49 |
| ectospasm | st__: bash is more flexible than POSIX, though not as portable. | 11:49 |

| neurochrome | chmod, though I have multiple upgrades ready so it would ask for confirmation anyway... will this ask for confirmation with only one upgrade due? | 11:59 |
| chmod | bahamas, usually with a command like that the file needs to be executable - do you have the correct permissions? | 11:59 |

| Jordan_U | Axsuul: It's only purpose is to archive files, yes. Note that tar predates zip, and tar.gz compresses better than zip, and is easier to deal with on a *NIX system (and is the de facto standard for archives in *NIX). | 13:09 |
| bullgard4 | What messages does /var/log/debug.1 comprise? | 13:11 |
| Jordan_U | FrEaKmAn_: You should run that in the directory that you actually used to build the program if possible. | 13:11 |
| bursihido | Installing all backtrack tools from backtrack repos can couse ubuntu 10.10 to any problem ? | 13:11 |
| FrEaKmAn_ | Jordan_U, I downloaded package, ran ./configure, make and make install | 13:12 |
| FrEaKmAn_ | now when I run make uninstall in same folder, I get that problem | 13:12 |
| bursihido | Installing all backtrack tools from backtrack repos can couse ubuntu 10.10 to any problem ? | 13:12 |
| Jordan_U | FrEaKmAn_: Unless you then ran "make clean" you should not be getting that error then. But whatever the reason is, running "./configure" before "sudo make uninstall" should fix it. | 13:13 |
| Gnea | bursihido: yes. | 13:13 |
| ouyes | I find one interesting thing, when you run ubuntu you will hear the sound of your cooling fan constantly, it seems the fan is running at a high speed, but when you are in windows it is not ,sometimes there is sound, sometimes there is no sound, is there any management carried out for cooling fan of the laptop under ubuntu? | 13:13 |
| Nasha | bursihido: No need to repeat | 13:13 |
| bursihido | Nasha: okay Thanks | 13:13 |
| Gnea | bursihido: mixing repos like that is wrong. | 13:13 |
| Jordan_U | ouyes: Yes. It may not work properly with your hardware, but it does work with most laptops. | 13:14 |
| bursihido | Gnea: oh it can serious problem | 13:14 |
| Gnea | bursihido: ubuntu repos are meant for ubuntu, debian repos are menat for debian, backtrack repos are meant for backtrack. | 13:14 |
| Nasha | bursihido: if you want backtrack tools, why not just boot a live cd? | 13:14 |
| Nasha | Best way to do it, without causing problens | 13:15 |
| ouyes | Jordan_U, I have got a thinkpad T400 | 13:15 |
| Gnea | bursihido: most backtrack tools are already in ubuntu repos | 13:15 |

| lmontrie | abhinav_singh: use dpkg -r package-name | 13:48 |

| lmontrie | abhinav_singh: dpkg -S opera | 13:50 |
| Nasha | abhinav_singh: if u type the command, then for package name just type op then press tab, it should complete it for you or give u ur options | 13:50 |

| abhinav_singh | Nasha | 14:00 |
| malko2 | lu | 14:00 |
| Nasha | purge The package is selected to be purged (i.e. we want to remove | 14:01 |
| Nasha | everything, even configuration files). | 14:01 |
| Nasha | You need to use dpkg purge opera | 14:01 |
| Nasha | Thats the way i was giong to suggest doing it, but someone beat me to it with -r switch. I thought they were the same | 14:01 |
| Nasha | If you've read the man page, how did you miss the purge option? | 14:02 |
| abhinav_singh | i read it after using dpkg -r :) Nasha | 14:02 |
| Nasha | Ok well purge it now | 14:02 |
| abhinav_singh | hmmm Nasha | 14:02 |
| Nasha | Should always use purge | 14:02 |
| Nasha | That way you know its complete removal. Same with apt | 14:03 |

| gamerpro2000 | would it be rm -rf $HOME/.gnome2/ | 14:49 |
| gamerpro2000 | or something like that | 14:49 |
| shiv_ | anyone? | 14:49 |
| nuDLer | gamerpro2000: do you have other users than the ones on the LDAP server that logs on? | 14:49 |
| gamerpro2000 | nuDLer, its just the home directories on the server that sync via pam_mount | 14:50 |
| gamerpro2000 | I used to just sync their Documents, Pictures, and other folders | 14:50 |
| gamerpro2000 | but I'm switching to doing the entire home directory so that their settings are retained from machine to machine | 14:50 |
| cong | talk about your life | 14:51 |
| gamerpro2000 | however, since I have special settings stored in /etc/skel/ and want them in the existing user's folders, I have to remove all .gconf and stuff | 14:51 |
| gamerpro2000 | and copy the files over | 14:51 |
| zzzop | !fsck | 14:51 |
| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 14:51 |
| gamerpro2000 | since their accounts are already make, etc/skel won't apply to them | 14:52 |
| anirudhr | gamerpro2000, $HOME would be an environment variable, you'll only delete your own. Try creating a user list by grepping for bash in .etc.passwd. | 14:52 |
| krger | Heh. | 14:52 |
| krger | Are all the home directories not under the same path? | 14:52 |
| gamerpro2000 | anirudhr, thanks. I'll give it a shot | 14:52 |
| gamerpro2000 | One quick question, though | 14:52 |
| gamerpro2000 | Is there an easier way to apply .gconf files to all users then blowing away and overwritting these folders? | 14:53 |
| zzzop | !ghci | 14:53 |
| anirudhr | gamerpro2000, No clue about that, sorry. :) Also, try using Ruby to write the script. You can always encase BASH scripts inside Ruby within ``s. | 14:54 |
| nuDLer | gamerpro: what about just doing going into /home and run the following "rf -f */.gconf" ? | 14:59 |
| anirudhr | nuDLer, I am sure you mean rm. ;) | 15:03 |
| nuDLer | anirudhr: your right :) | 15:06 |
| Lint01 | does @ means something special for bash? | 15:09 |

| ubottu | 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 » | 16:05 |
| Roasted_ | IdleOne, the idea is, I want a GUI method of chmod -R. | 16:05 |
| bahamas | aeon-ltd: ok, it worked with touch ~/.vimrc. is there a difference? | 16:05 |
| Roasted_ | IdleOne, dolphin (as root) does this fine. nautilus (as root) fails, and has failed since 2005.... | 16:06 |
| IdleOne | Roasted_: file a bug | 16:06 |
| Roasted_ | IdleOne, I'm just wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if I need to enable some sort of a setting within gconf-editor to allow that to happen. | 16:06 |
| bahamas | aeon-ltd: oh, i was in /home/, not in /home/my_user. | 16:06 |
| aeon-ltd | bahamas: good :) | 16:06 |
| Roasted_ | IdleOne, because I've found some features of nautilus are hidden until you enable them to prevent users from self destructing their systems, and re-assigning ownership recursively via gui is one of htem I suppose. | 16:06 |
| bahamas | so, ~/ actually means /home/my_user | 16:07 |
| Roasted_ | bahamas, yes, ~ is the univeral sign for "home" | 16:07 |
| Roasted_ | bahamas, just like / is the universal sign for "root" | 16:07 |
| IdleOne | Roasted_: it may be hidden, I really am not sure but I have a button that says " Apply to all files in folder " at the bootom of the properties window. | 16:08 |
| aeon-ltd | bahamas: yeah, ~/ = your home, not a home | 16:08 |
| bahamas | Roasted: but doing touch ~/.vimrc created .vimrc in /home/my_user, not in /home. maybe i don't understand how linux works | 16:08 |
| Roasted_ | IdleOne, that will apply permissions recursively, but not ownership or group changes. | 16:08 |
| Roasted_ | IdleOne, that being said, if jason/jason owns EVERY SINGLE FOLDER within my target folder, I can re-assign perms accordingly. but I cannot change the owenrship or anything below that. | 16:08 |
| bastidrazor | bahamas: having .vimrc in /home isn't going to help you in anyway. you need it in you're /home/user | 16:08 |
| bahamas | aeon-ltd: i realize that it's not referring to a home as in a house with a roof and a fireplace, if that's what you meant | 16:09 |
| Roasted_ | IdleOne, this gets annoying when I use external hard drives from 1 linux system to another. Sometimes it comes up as owned by user 999 or whatever, you know... users that dont exist. So I need to take over ownership and resorting to terminal for something simple is kinda. really?? | 16:09 |
| blade0_0 | can any1 tell me how to autostart byobu in terminal, without having to type the name in every time?? | 16:09 |
| Roasted_ | bahamas, I think that's because (keyword - THINK) because ~ refers to the "currently logged in user - home" | 16:09 |
| Roasted_ | bahamas, if you're not sure how to use ~, I would avoid it. if you stick to direct UNC style paths, you won't fail - aka /home/jason, etc. | 16:09 |
| bahamas | Roasted: aah, that explains it. | 16:10 |
| Roasted_ | bahamas, to be honest I can't think of a time I resorted to ~ instead of /home/user because I find it more practical to see what my path is doing, so /home/user is a direct - BAM - I see it. I know it. I can predict what will happen. | 16:10 |
| ni1s | my volume applet has gone missing, how do I get it back? | 16:10 |
| Roasted_ | bahamas, but it's a good tipt o know, since some guides refer to ~ as home. It's good to be aware of it at least. | 16:10 |

| tobzi | ychaouche: how do i easy remove Grub and ubuntu? | 16:38 |
| Roasted_ | is kaspersky available for linux? I see they have a free linux based kaspersky rescue recovery program, but I figured I'd ask about having an actual installation of kaspersky on my computer. | 16:38 |
| ychaouche | tobzi, I think it will destroy the grub yes, you then have to use win7 autorepair, if that still exists (as in win xp etc.) | 16:39 |
| Mohan_chml | Roasted, there is no need for an "anti-virus" | 16:39 |
| Roasted_ | Mohan_chml, there's always need for an anti virus. | 16:39 |
| tobzi | ychaouche: hehe thats what i was afraid of :( hmm | 16:39 |
| Mohan_chml | Roasted, ah a recovery program for doing what? | 16:39 |
| Roasted_ | Mohan_chml, you might not be able to be infected by a windows virus on a linux system, but you can still spread windows viruses with ease. | 16:40 |
| ychaouche | tobzi, you can use gparted or equivalent on win7 then, and if you still have the win7 cd, you can try to boot from it and choose repair existing system (if that option exists) | 16:40 |
| Roasted_ | Mohan_chml, well I have kaspersky rescue disk on a liveusb drive. I'm testing it now on an infected XP system and so far it works great.

| Roasted_ | IdleOne, maybe Ill jsut stick to the rescue disk they have. IT seems to have gotten great reviews, even on a list of 15 competitor applications it scored very high. | 16:47 |
| Visuex | was just trying to clarify | 16:47 |
| Visuex | Roasted_ are you trying to recover files? | 16:48 |
| Roasted_ | Visuex, no, just trying to find alternative applications for live-cd virus scanning | 16:48 |
| Roasted_ | for those stubborn windows systems that are so heavily infected they cant function | 16:48 |
| Roasted_ | at first I was trying to find one that was linux based to add it to ubuntu for my re-spin of the ISO but I think I should just have kasperskyr escue disk handy anyway since it does such a good job imo | 16:49 |
| Visuex | systems so jacked up that they dont even boot such as a boot scanner? | 16:49 |
| Visuex | clamav is good for scanning but it doesnt remove anything so kind of pointless even if it did spyware | 16:50 |
| Roasted_ | Visuex, I suppose. Im just doing more tech work on the side and want to be as prepared as possible. | 16:50 |
| Roasted_ | I hate reformating systems. I try to avoid it even tho often times its the best thing to do. | 16:51 |

| ubottu | jlaroche: The Linux Standard Base, or LSB, is a joint project by several Linux distributions under the organizational structure of The Free Standards Group to standardize the internal structure of Linux-based operating systems.

| robertcmk7 | jlaroche: Sorry, I had the same problem. I fought it for hours and then gave up. Normal linux commands cannot be used in grub menu. | 17:11 |

| ActionParsnip | IdleOne: the OS isn't supported here. Ubuntu has the LSB modules and the OS s/he has doesn't have the, | 17:12 |

| IdleOne | ActionParsnip: he said he was triple booting, win/osx/ubuntu but when at a grub prompt he is very limited in commands | 17:13 |
| jlaroche | visuex: i am triple booting | 17:13 |
| ActionParsnip | jlaroche: kinda handy if you'd said so | 17:13 |
| jlaroche | Hello. I am triple booting with windows 7, Mac osx and Ubuntu 10.04. I had a custom grub for my startup that worked fine. Today I ran updates in ubuntu and there was a new kernel, but it didn't show up in my grub when I restarted. I tried to run 'update-grub' after removing my 40_custom grub entry, but when I restarted my grub menu dissapeared. I am just in text mode now. Can anyone help? I backed up my 40_custom to my desktop before doing this. | 17:13 |
| jlaroche | i did say so | 17:13 |
| bhaskar | visuex thanks well i have installed it but i am feeling sleepy that why i am not able to work byee | 17:13 |
| IdleOne | ActionParsnip: he did a couple times :) | 17:13 |
| Visuex | gmitrev indeed that does not...other than the fact that your USB is probably formatted to FAT32 which may change the permissions when a file is added to it | 17:14 |
| ActionParsnip | jlaroche: http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-recover-grub2-after-windows.html | 17:14 |
| Visuex | oh ok bhaskar ciao | 17:14 |
| ActionParsnip | jlaroche: 'text mode' can be just cli and booted, doesnt explicitly mean a grub prompt | 17:15 |
| Visuex | gmitrev the other computer is it running ubuntu as well | 17:15 |
| gmitrev | Visuex: we've tried ftp, skype transfer, usb transfer and everytime we get the same error. both PCs are running ubuntu | 17:16 |
| jlaroche | ActionParsnip: the machine boots up and just shows "GNU GRUB version 1.98-1ubuntu8"... the prompt says "grub>" | 17:16 |

| Visuex | gmitrev it may depend on the type of file but I have an idea which probably isnt the most elegant but could work... archive the files into a zip or whatever you like such as a tar and then transfer it anyway you want...then if it changes the permissions of the zip it shouldnt affect the contents of the archive | 17:20 |

| Scunizi | Silicone: flash pages? | 17:45 |
| nibbler_ | Silicone, execute in a shell: sudo iptables -n -L (not sure if sudo is needed) | 17:46 |
| Silicone | Scunizi, no, skype, hotmail | 17:46 |
| slashsBin | Scunizi> u don't have enough permissions to write files to /var/www on remote machine | 17:46 |
| nibbler_ | Silicone, but what you describe does not sound like firewalling issue (might be... but unlikely) | 17:47 |
| Galindar | hello, i just added my Firewall to my startup applications. would this be the correct command to use? should i run the firewall as root?: su-to-root -X -c /usr/sbin/firestarter | 17:47 |
| Silicone | nibbler, firebug says that css script cannot be downloaded | 17:47 |
| Scunizi | slashsBin: so maybe I should do it in the reverse.. ssh into the other server and initiate the copy from there? | 17:47 |
| Silicone | try that url in browser....not loading | 17:47 |
| nibbler_ | Silicone, so what does the iptables -n -L tell you? (nopaste, if you dont understand the output) | 17:48 |
| Silicone | nibbler_, onput, output, forward accepted pro opt source ) | 17:49 |
| Silicone | nibbler_, really, don't know what it is | 17:49 |
| slashsBin | Scunizi> yep that should work but u need a ssh-server on ur local, so instead u can ssh to remote host & add enough permissions for scp user to /var/www | 17:49 |
| Silicone | nibbler_, ) | 17:49 |
| nibbler_ | Silicone, so nopate the output (see topic paste.ubuntu.com | 17:49 |

| Silicone | nibbler_, ^( | 17:52 |

| Galindar | hello, i just added my Firewall to my startup applications. should i run the firewall as root?: su-to-root -X -c /usr/sbin/firestarter | 17:59 |
| dajhorn | RingZer0: You could buy a Microsoft Terminal Services License and connect to it through the `rdesktop` program. You could also run your Windows applications in Wine or CrossOver. You don't necessarily need to virtualize. | 18:00 |
| mbeierl | in top, does the RSS (resident share) include the SHR mem size, or do I add the two together to determine the actual footprint of the process? | 18:02 |
| JohnFlux_ | mbeierl: "actual footprint" is a bit tricky | 18:04 |
| JohnFlux_ | mbeierl: best way is to kill the process, see what "free" says, then run the process and see what "free" says | 18:04 |
| mbeierl | JohnFlux_: yes, you're right. I've got to measure the impact of using Java vs. Perl as an interpreter. BeanShell is my friend ;) | 18:05 |
| Silicone | does anybody want to know what was the problem? :) | 18:05 |
| Silicone | i solved | 18:05 |
| Yerushalmi | Hey folks. If I disable wireless on my laptop, I can't reenable it without a reboot. Anyone know how to help? | 18:05 |
| dajhorn | mbeierl: The RES column can include the SHR column, but the numbers can be confusing. Don't do application profiling with `top`. | 18:05 |
| sol326 | yeru: it depends on what kind of laptop you have | 18:06 |
| mbeierl | dajhorn: k. Just wanted to see if I could get broad brush strokes | 18:06 |
| dajhorn | mbeierl: Most people care about RES. On my workstation, few things are above 64MB in the SHR column. | 18:06 |
| dajhorn | mbeierl: Remember that the RES column can be reduced by swapping out. An easy way to get a better number is to `swapoff -a` before looking at top. | 18:07 |
| mbeierl | dajhorn: ya, and from this perspective, the java interpreter runs around 22m RES and perl around 2mb RES | 18:08 |
| mbeierl | dajhorn: as I said, simple broad brushstrokes to give an idea to mgmt | 18:08 |
| dajhorn | mbeierl: Heh. Well, you are comparing Java to Perl. :) | 18:08 |

| LjL | dyaga: please control your language and compliments | 18:14 |
| dajhorn | _Tristan: Ubuntu doesn't usually do major driver upgrades between releases. You'll need to wait for Natty, or find a PPA with the driver that you need. | 18:14 |
| Roasted_ | dajhorn, aren't the "driver" releases part of the linux kernel tho? | 18:14 |
| dajhorn | Roasted_: Yes, drivers are part of the kernel package. | 18:15 |
| LjL | Roasted_: well, Ubuntu doesn't usually do major kernel upgrades either, does it | 18:15 |
| Roasted_ | sooooooooo with each kernel release... you get more driver support... | 18:15 |
| Roasted_ | LjL, right | 18:15 |

| LjL | Roasted_: well a driver can be shipped as a kernel module | 18:16 |

| LjL | Roasted_: while not necessarily being part of the Linux source tree | 18:16 |
| _Tristan | I'm not coming from windows..? | 18:16 |
| LjL | Torikun1: Unity requires 3D acceleration to work | 18:16 |
| Torikun1 | ah | 18:16 |
| Torikun1 | LjL That will be a problem for many people I think since they are forcing unity in the next release | 18:17 |

| dajhorn | Steve132: Add the CPU Frequency Scaling monitor to the panel. It has an option that pins the CPU to maximum clock. | 18:20 |

| Steve132 | which is right...according to the wiki on the processor I ahve | 18:22 |
| craigbass1976 | Ahh... I figured it out | 18:22 |
| Steve132 | thats the base clock frequenc | 18:22 |

| Paddy_NI | ajopaul, you want the supergrub2 disk | 18:23 |
| dajhorn | Steve132: Why are you expecting it to be 2+ GHz? Overclocking? | 18:23 |
| BajK | what is the console command for adding a repository? apt-add something | 18:23 |

| Steve132 | but I don't have any idea how to enable it | 18:26 |
| dajhorn | Steve132: There are some LaunchPad bugs for turbo boost. A quick googling says to test it with acpi=off. | 18:26 |

| littlejoey | v3n0w: open the terminal and yeah click nm-applet | 18:27 |
| ActionParsnip | v3n0w: its not needed (as you can see) to make the network work, so having it if you dont intend to change any network settings (add new wireless links) is unnecesary | 18:28 |
| _ahaz_ | Anyone have experience with ddrescue? | 18:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Steve132: /etc/default/grub next to quiet splash run: sudo update-grub after changing and saving the new file | 18:28 |
| v3n0w | littlejoey, An instance of nm-applet is already running. | 18:28 |
| dajhorn | Steve132: At the kernel command line. Hold the right shift key at boot time to get the grub menu, push 'e' at the kernel line, and append 'acpi=off' to the other options. | 18:28 |
| Galindar | Hello all. I added my Firewall to Startup Applications. Should I run the firewall as root at startup?: su-to-root -X -c /usr/sbin/firestarter | 18:28 |
| huizzzu | hello! got a nasty problem with gdm - PAM-MOUNT - ldap and smb-userhomes | 18:28 |
| ActionParsnip | littlejoey: using a terminal would mean the terminal would NEED to be open for the app to run, using ALT+F2 removes this necessity | 18:29 |
| dajhorn | Steve132: acpi=off is only for troubleshooting, and shouldn't be a permanent setting because it will probably disable all power management. | 18:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Galindar: firestarter is only a gui to iptables, so it doesnt need to run | 18:29 |
| _sjm_ | quick question: how to setup a wireless NIC to auto-connect on boot? (SSID not broadcasting on AP, WPA) | 18:29 |

| v3n0w | ActionParsnip, Can start it anyway. I think is a problem with the system trya itself, I just have minimized a emenese and lost it. | 18:30 |
| dajhorn | _sjm_: You need to create a stanza in the /etc/network/interfaces file. The man page has syntax for things like the SSID. | 18:30 |

| Steve132 | what does acpi=off? | 18:36 |
| v3n0w | ActionParsnip, I see. But it only duplicates the sound and letter icon =/ It seens that the problem is before it... | 18:37 |

| bigdad1e | goltoof: is vsftp easier? is there a gui to configure users? | 18:41 |

| imacode | xangua, SSD ? | 18:42 |
| goltoof | bigdad1e: not sure if its easier or whatnot.. i think it's way more popular though | 18:42 |
| Alarm | so i guess there isnt anything else i can do ? :P | 18:42 |
| xangua | Alarm: if you just want to install flash plugin better install it from the software channel | 18:42 |
| Steve132 | so my question can be summarized as "How to enable/check turbo mode under ubuntu?" and the answer I got was "turn acpi off" | 18:42 |

| bigdad1e | goltoof: is there a gui to configure users? | 18:42 |

| Steve132 | ok | 18:44 |
| Steve132 | so how do I do that? | 18:44 |

| Steve132 | if not, I can live without it | 18:49 |
| jadahl_ | ftg2: you could use a crawler that downloads/mirrors everything under http://api.kde.org/4.5-api/ | 18:49 |
| dajhorn | Steve132: No, and this seems to be by design. If you do a web search, you can see some discussion about how the /proc/cpuinfo and _freq are reported. | 18:49 |
| _jesse_ | ftg2: you could wget to grab a copy | 18:49 |

| goltoof | bigdad1e: to answer your question, no there isn't a gui for vsftpd, here's a thorough tutorial though: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=518293 | 18:50 |
| dajhorn | Steve132: The cpu cannot run at 3.00 forever, just very short periods. | 18:50 |
| bigdad1e | goltoof: thank you. ill give it a shot | 18:51 |
| ftg2 | jadahl_ jbroome: yeah. thats an option. i just figured it was probably shipped in a package like the other docs i've installed recently | 18:51 |
| littlejoey | tomreyn: it is good to have several browsers so that if one has a problem you could use the other (it is not a real fix but it's easier than a real fix...) | 18:51 |
| Steve132 | so the idea is that it doesn't appear as an option for a clock speed like "performance/ondemand/etc" | 18:51 |
| Steve132 | because users can't/shouldn't set it to 3.0 mode? | 18:51 |
| dajhorn | Steve132: Yes. | 18:51 |
| Steve132 | that makes sense | 18:51 |
| Steve132 | ok | 18:51 |

| dajhorn | theacolyte: Mash the keyboard until the entropy pool is refreshed. (Seriously.) | 19:07 |
| theacolyte | Yeah I tried that, maybe I'm not mashing it enough | 19:07 |

| theacolyte | dajhorn: hmm, same | 19:11 |
| theacolyte | It's weird, it's like it's not getting *any* entropy | 19:11 |
| dajhorn | theacolyte: Push CTRL-D. Maybe your gpg process is waiting for stdin. | 19:11 |
| ActionParsnip | shane4ubuntu: neither is better, nor worse | 19:11 |
| shane4ubuntu | Carnivore, how far have you gotten? | 19:11 |
| shane4ubuntu | ActionParsnip, ok, just didn't want to miss out on pigeon if it was better. :) | 19:11 |
| Carnivore | I installed the Ubuntu Windows Installer months ago and have been using it successfully off and on ever since as a dual boot with Vista | 19:12 |
| ActionParsnip | shane4ubuntu: try it, if you like it, use it | 19:12 |
| wendico1 | hello, it is save to update my bios with flashrom? i have a aspire one netbook | 19:12 |
| Carnivore | I just now finished installing updates and now it won't boot | 19:12 |
| shane4ubuntu | ActionParsnip, ahh, I was just looking for info on what was better. I use empathy, I guess if you can't point out any real reason, I will just stick with empathy. :) Laziness. | 19:13 |
| Carnivore | I picked Ubuntu from the boot menu, it complained about missing fonts, and then rebooted. | 19:13 |
| shane4ubuntu | Carnivore, ok, are there any errors? | 19:13 |
| ActionParsnip | shane4ubuntu: i use it because I used it back in 2000 when it was gaim and like the interface. I guess it's just an old habit so I stick with it | 19:14 |
| shane4ubuntu | Carnivore, ok, when it rebooted what happened. | 19:14 |
| Carnivore | Just the font error | 19:14 |
| Carnivore | I don't have the exact error text because it reboots really quickly, so I only see it for a few seconds | 19:14 |
| shane4ubuntu | ActionParsnip, I see, I used gaim too, then pidgin, then when empathy came out I just used it, I don't really have a pref there, or don't see much of a difference, Empathy does see 'people nearby' on my lan, so that is I guess a positive for me. | 19:15 |
| shane4ubuntu | Carnivore, ok, and when it reboots, are you then able to boot into Ubuntu | 19:15 |
| Carnivore | Nope | 19:15 |
| theacolyte | dajhorn: This is just bizzare, I can't get it to work | 19:16 |

| gladiator | are there any utilities to repair any failing filesystems / bad sectors? | 19:17 |
| xangua | benuid0: you can do it with unetbootin | 19:17 |
| shane4ubuntu | gladiator, there is fsck | 19:18 |
| shane4ubuntu | !fsck | gladiator | 19:18 |
| ubottu | gladiator: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 19:18 |
| benuid0 | xangua, which distribution to I tell it to use? I've got unetbootin | 19:18 |
| sosaited | gladiator: If you can backup the files, then for logical bad sectors and slow drive performance, a zero-wipe is nice | 19:18 |
| benuid0 | nevermind, im retarded | 19:19 |
| Carnivore | shane4ubuntu: Every time I try to reboot, I get the font error and it reboots | 19:19 |

| === jcrigby_ is now known as jcrigby | ||
| xangua | benuid0: just select the iso | 19:19 |
| shane4ubuntu | Carnivore, ok, but do you have a Ubuntu Recovery option in the boot menu list? When you first start the computer? | 19:19 |
| shane4ubuntu | Carnivore, or something similar? | 19:19 |
| benuid0 | xangua, yeah I know. | 19:19 |
| gladiator | shane4ubuntu, sosaited "unable to locate package fsck" 10.10. sosaited im not able to back up files. that drive was my backup drive before installing ubuntu | 19:20 |
| shane4ubuntu | Carnivore, it seems like something in the update failed, or didn't finish, and left your system un-configured. | 19:20 |
| coz_ | gladiator, I wou ld download Dban ,,,burn it to disk,,, back up your needed files then boot with the Dban disk to wipe the driver | 19:20 |
| coz_ | gladiator, http://www.dban.org/ | 19:20 |
| shane4ubuntu | gladiator, fsck is installed automagically on all installs, it is part of the system. | 19:20 |
| sosaited | gladiator: what specific problem do you have with it?. And is it just one partition or whole drive?. Did you check the SMART status to see how bad the bad sectors are? | 19:21 |
| shane4ubuntu | !fsck | gladiator | 19:21 |
| Carnivore | shane4ubuntu, There are two menus: one where I pick between Vista and Ubuntu, and then one with all the Ubuntu boot options. I can't recall if the error occurs between the two menus or after the second one. | 19:21 |
| shane4ubuntu | Carnivore, ok, I'm not really familiar with a wubi install boot menu, but I think it would probably be in the second menu, about the 2nd or 3rd choice down, it may be recovery or something similar, I can't remember what it is named, but something similar to that. | 19:22 |
| gladiator | sosaited, its my laptop. it only has one disk with multiple partitions. but one of the partitions is not mounting. it shows up in fdisk -l but isnt mounted. when i try to mount it, it says bad format | 19:22 |
| robs1 | Question: I am unable to telnet to another server. I am not even able to telnet to my localhost. However, the xinetd is working and is enabled. In addition, the telnet service is listed in /etc/services. But, when I do a netstat -napt, telnet and its associated port 23 are NOT listed! Any ideas? | 19:23 |
| shane4ubuntu | gladiator, do you know what type of partition it is? ext3 ext4, fat32, ntfs, reiserFS? | 19:23 |
| goltoof | Carnivore: typically holding down the shift key will bring up the Ubuntu boot menu, from there you can select recovery mode, you'll at least have cli access and it shouldn't reboot | 19:23 |
| gladiator | shane4ubuntu, it says fat32. but im not sure .. it may have been ntfs also .. | 19:24 |
| Carnivore | goltoof, shane4ubuntu, thanks! I'll try that and see how it goes. Thanks! | 19:24 |
| shane4ubuntu | goltoof, won't that give him a GUI also?? | 19:24 |
| gladiator | shane4ubuntu, but in any event, it doesnt mount. whether i try vfat or ntfs-3g | 19:24 |
| shane4ubuntu | Carnivore, np | 19:25 |
| shane4ubuntu | gladiator, ok, what happened that it quit? I mean partitions don't just quit. | 19:25 |
| goltoof | shane4ubuntu: yes, stripped down to the basics.. i mention cl access because he at least needs that to fix this problem | 19:25 |
| gladiator | shane4ubuntu, i formatted old partitions. made new ones. installed ubuntu. let this particular partition as it is. this partition was my back up partition. | 19:26 |
| shane4ubuntu | gladiator, ok, because usually those problems happen because a partition table is messed up | 19:27 |
| wildc4rd | evenin' all | 19:27 |
| dlublink | I want to test how my software would run on a 100mhz machine with 16mb of ram, how can I simulate this on my "server"? Without using virtualbox, xen, or other virtualization software ? | 19:27 |
| shane4ubuntu | gladiator, if you messed with partitions, what tool did you use? | 19:27 |
| ActionParsnip | wildc4rd: ey up | 19:27 |
| gladiator | shane4ubuntu, that may be the case. i wouldnt know. i used the default partitioner that came with the ubuntu installer | 19:28 |
| sosaited | gladiator: Run gparted and see if there is a warning associated with that partition. If there is, then you will have to run Windows Chkdsk with /r or /f (I forgot which one it was, you can see its help for the exact switch) and then it should mount | 19:28 |
| ActionParsnip | dlublink: there may be some kernel options you can use | 19:28 |
| gladiator | sosaited, gparted is broken with 10.10 64 bit | 19:28 |
| sosaited | gladiator: But that is based on the assumption that it is NTFS | 19:28 |
| gladiator | atleast for me it is | 19:28 |
| shane4ubuntu | gladiator, ok, let me google, I know there is a way to try and restore partition tables, but it is hmm, risky. | 19:28 |
| sosaited | gladiator: If the partition is NTFS, then running windows' chkdsk seems like a good bet | 19:29 |
| ActionParsnip | gladiator: its used in the install process to setup the disk so I think its just you :) | 19:29 |
| gladiator | shane4ubuntu, risky as in bricking the disk risky? or losing the data risky? | 19:30 |
| benuid0 | ....... My Gparted LiveUSB isn't doing anything on boot even though I set it to first in BIOS boot order | 19:30 |
| ActionParsnip | benuid0: what's a gparted live usb? | 19:30 |
| gladiator | ActionParsnip, i googled the issue briefly and it appears to be a problem with others too. people suggesting installing a specific 32 bit release for parted. so im guessing its not just me | 19:30 |
| shane4ubuntu | gladiator, risky as looging data | 19:31 |
| shane4ubuntu | gladiator, loosing* | 19:31 |
| ActionParsnip | gladiator: hmm. Not had an issue personally, strange | 19:31 |
| gladiator | shane4ubuntu, im already at that.. if i cant recover it the data is already lost .. | 19:31 |
| sosaited | gladiator: If fdisk -l shows its correct partition type, then there is no need to mess with partition tables | 19:31 |
| shane4ubuntu | gladiator, actually it could be recovered, using foremost, and scalpel, | 19:32 |
| benuid0 | ActionParsnip, Gparted is a partitioning program that runs on boot. I wanted to format my drive with it and then hopefully reinstall my linux LiveCD | 19:32 |
| benuid0 | but nothing will run at boot | 19:32 |
| gladiator | shane4ubuntu, ok. let me try those .. | 19:33 |
| shane4ubuntu | gladiator, ok, here is a link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=370121 | 19:33 |
| ActionParsnip | benuid0: I know of gparted, just not a specific gparted usb | 19:33 |
| benuid0 | I put it on a USB | 19:33 |
| shane4ubuntu | gladiator, if you can recover the partition table, that would be the best, if you can't recover that then you can use foremost, and scalpel | 19:33 |
| ActionParsnip | benuid0: did you md5 test the iso you put on the usb? | 19:33 |
| benuid0 | ActionParsnip, no, how do I do that? | 19:34 |
| ActionParsnip | !md5 | benuid0 | 19:34 |

| ActionParsnip | benuid0: you haven't tested the image so you don't know if the image is complete or error free | 19:34 |
| ActionParsnip | benuid0: bad image makes a bad install | 19:35 |

| dusf | i am trying to play a .wmv file and although it plays, i can only ever play it from the start as when i skip through it and release the mouse it jumps to random parts of the video. is there a work around? i've already converted it to mpg and avi with mencoder but vlc will only play the video, says there's a problem with 'wmas' | 20:00 |
| dusf | is there a workaround? i'd rather not have to boot windows everytime i need to do some cbt! | 20:00 |
| kermit | My system won't boot, even into single user. It stops at the same point either way, right after the screen changes to frame buffer. The last things it says are the network scripts terminating and udev complaining about an old style config, but neither seem to be errors. Why won't single user even work when it makes it that far into the boot process? | 20:00 |

| lucidguy | ActionParsnip: Ok.. no -f understood. Anything else I should look for .. I just can't afford anything else being deleted outside that folder. I just have a fear that its somehow going to traverse into another directory. For example what if someone hardlinked /etc/ in this directory .. I'm screwed? | 20:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Prowler_x1: 32bit is more supported by 3rd party companies. If you have a tonne of ram or intend to encode video/audio a lot then 64bit can help | 20:14 |
| kermit | ActionParsnip: if i could just get a shell i could run top, is there a way to make it give me a shell sooner in the boot process? its already into trying to turn up the network when it hangs. | 20:14 |

| MaindotC | Can anyone who knows what the hell they're talking about answer my question: Does anyone here re-stream stuff on justin.tv or ustream? | 20:52 |
| shcherbak | Toph: most likely | 20:52 |
| Toph | shcherbak,,, thaks | 20:52 |
| ikonia | MaindotC: can you clarify what you mean by re-stream, as the URL you posted is just streaming | 20:52 |
| shcherbak | Toph: does lod you out to splash creen or user-swich box ? | 20:53 |
| Toph | schatan,,, user-switch box | 20:53 |
| Pici | MaindotC: I don't understand what you're asking either. | 20:53 |
| milen8204 | emorris, thanks | 20:54 |
| MaindotC | Pici: thanks for replying - but if you don't understand then obviously the question is not for you. | 20:54 |
| Toph | shcherbak,,, user-switch and i have to enter my password again | 20:54 |
| ikonia | MaindotC: your not being clear, the URL you posted is just for streaming, yet your talking about "re-streaming" could you please clarify | 20:54 |
| dajhorn | kusanagi: If a package is in more than one repository, then APT scores it, and installs the version with the highest score. Look at the output of `apt-cache policy SomePackage`, and read about APT pinning. | 20:54 |
| shcherbak | Toph: untick option in screenserver (or disable if you do not need it) | 20:55 |
| kusanagi | thanks dajhorn | 20:55 |
| Toph | shcherbak,,, i do want the screensaver, just not having to log back in | 20:55 |
| Amoz | MaindotC, exactly what are you looking for? | 20:55 |
| Amoz | MaindotC, something that streams media of your choice to justin.tv? | 20:56 |
| === revolve is now known as herpnuts | ||
| MaindotC | Amoz: I'm looking for someone who re-streams a broadcast to other users who under certain conditions are unable to view the original stream. | 20:56 |
| === herpnuts is now known as revolve | ||
| ikonia | MaindotC: can you clarify what you mean by re-stream please. | 20:57 |
| Amoz | MaindotC, which means, you want to take the stream from justin.tv and send it through another host or something | 20:57 |
| Amoz | if they can't watch the original stream, then what can they watch? | 20:57 |
| === NG_ is now known as ng_ | ||
| MaindotC | Amoz: for example I can view a video stream, then use WebCamStudio to record my desktop, and then re-broadcast it to a justin.tv or other site | 20:57 |
| MaindotC | but the clarity going from recording your desktop to re-broadcasting it degrades heavily | 20:58 |
| MaindotC | so I was wondering what other (if any) packages anyone uses | 20:58 |
| Amoz | yeah | 20:58 |
| Amoz | hmm | 20:58 |
| MaindotC | preferably anyone who re-streams | 20:58 |
| MaindotC | and if you don't know of any it's cool | 20:58 |
| Amoz | sorry, I don't | 20:58 |
| MaindotC | ok fair enough | 20:58 |
| ikonia | MaindotC: I don't think your going to be able to do that | 20:59 |
| Amoz | but why is that they can't watch it? | 20:59 |
| Amoz | ikonia, why wouldn't it? | 20:59 |
| unam3 | Is file recovery possible in ubuntu ? | 20:59 |
| ikonia | Amoz: because your videing a video, the quality will always lose a little | 20:59 |
| Amoz | unam3, check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery | 20:59 |
| unam3 | thx Amoz | 20:59 |
| Amoz | ikonia, if you redistribute the same stream you get from justin.tv, then no loss will take place | 21:00 |
| ikonia | plus, from what I'm reading on the site MaindotC posted earlier, the compression for the streaming software he is suggesting doesn't work great for hi quality | 21:00 |
| MaindotC | Amoz: it could be for several reasons - either site blocking/firewall issues on their end or their ISP, or blackout restrictions that are implemented incorrectly | 21:00 |
| ikonia | Amoz: yes, but if they can't watch justin.tv, why would they be able to take the other stream | 21:00 |
| Amoz | ikonia, as MaindotC said | 21:00 |
| ikonia | Amoz: the redirection (squid/iptables) would be a simple setup | 21:00 |
| MaindotC | I've tried using webcamstudio and it is a great piece of software but the re-broadcast is rather choppy, so I just thought I'd see if something else existed | 21:00 |
| KERO_netbook | mmed | 21:01 |
| Amoz | MaindotC, that's clearly not a optimised solution | 21:01 |
| ikonia | MaindotC: have you looked at what Amoz about just redirecting from your box to as a proxy/middle host for the link to justin.tv or ustream | 21:01 |
| MaindotC | I am reading up on VLC - apparently if you can find the rtmp stream link then VLC can re-broadcast (which can be re-directed to a streaming site such as justin or livestream) | 21:01 |
| Amoz | MaindotC, what stream do you want to redirect? | 21:02 |
| ikonia | MaindotC: you can do it at a simpler level with iptables or squid which will act as a buffer for any latency | 21:02 |
| MaindotC | Amoz: it's not porn if that's what you're inferring | 21:02 |
| Amoz | MaindotC, I'm not saying anything | 21:02 |
| ikonia | MaindotC: you can also put access controls in place if you use iptables or squid to stop anyone else leaching onto it | 21:02 |
| Amoz | but it's impossible to say something good if you don't tell me what technical stuff is behind | 21:03 |
| Amoz | help me help you | 21:03 |
| MaindotC | it's very simple - it doesn't really matter what type of content | 21:04 |
| === Nikon is now known as zedkappa | ||
| Amoz | MaindotC, that's correct | 21:04 |
| MaindotC | I know there are several windows users that do this sort of thing and I just wondered if there were any open source equivalents | 21:04 |
| Amoz | but the content can be distributed in a lot of different ways | 21:04 |
| ikonia | MaindotC: have you looked at squid or iptables to act as a controlled proxy or forwarder ? | 21:04 |
| MaindotC | is there someway to squelch people in this chat | 21:05 |
| MaindotC | I tried /squelch but that doesn't seem to work | 21:05 |
| Amoz | MaindotC, don't be rude | 21:05 |
| MaindotC | i found it | 21:05 |
| === miguel_ is now known as Guest36784 | ||
| MaindotC | Amoz: if you don't know of any off the top of your head it's cool - I just thought of the 1K users in here maybe | 21:06 |

| Benkinooby | hi i want to use nautilus instead of filezilla, but when is type to location sftp://username@server.com i get a pop-up that something wants to acces my keyring and that i sould enter my pw to unlock it. doing so makes it to reapear. when caceling, i get prompted for the password for the ftp server, but when i enter it it says either password denied or location can not be dispayed. i used the infos from filezilla, wich works like charm. any | 22:02 |

| Supari | hello i am getting /proc/mounts no such file when i try to boot lucid LTS | 22:03 |
| Supari | i installed the system using chroot from an exsisting usb flash drive | 22:03 |
| Supari | any tips ? | 22:03 |
| rclauff | @xuodin I was watching this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/550625 and it ends that it was patched and fixed in the updates yet I have updated to current and still have not fixed it, I have even ran a current livecd and it still isn't recognized as well. Its a raging pain in my ass when I am typing a document or in a web page because it jumps all over the damn place. | 22:03 |
| shane4ubuntu | !chroot | Supari | 22:04 |
| ubottu | Supari: A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 22:04 |

| shane4ubuntu | Supari: you are not mounting everything before chrooting | 22:04 |
| shane4ubuntu | Supari: see the link above | 22:04 |
| Supari | shane i mount the proc sys and dev prior to chrooting into the system | 22:05 |
| xuodin | rclauff: maybe maverick edition could solve this? | 22:06 |
| kermit | would uninstalling apparmor make my system not boot? | 22:06 |

| Supari | thanks shane let me try that | 22:07 |
| rclauff | @xuodin I was going to try it, I just haven't gotten around to trying it yet. | 22:07 |
| xuodin | rclauff: maybe it works, dunno know. i just turned my off so it doesn`t bug me. | 22:08 |
| xuodin | rclauff: good luck with it :) | 22:09 |
| Toph | of what value is a traceroute. i usually get about 15 host names and then couple dozen 'no' so i never arrive to where the ip origionates | 22:09 |
| Benkinooby | hi i want to use nautilus instead of filezilla, but when is type to location sftp://username@server.com i get a pop-up that something wants to acces my keyring and that i sould enter my pw to unlock it. doing so makes it to reapear. when caceling, i get prompted for the password for the ftp server, but when i enter it it says either password denied or location can not be dispayed. i used the infos from filezilla, wich works like charm. any | 22:09 |
| Benkinooby | ideas? | 22:09 |
| _jesse_ | Toph: that isn't traceroute's fault :P some routers just drop that traffic | 22:09 |
| Tweaky | hi everyone. when i go to places in the top panel and choose any options there (Home folder, downloads, pictures, etc) it opens movie player instead of going to that place. any idea how i can fix this? i also dont know how it got that way :/ | 22:09 |
| _jesse_ | Toph: particularly if you hit a firewall or something, what are you trying to do? | 22:10 |
| Toph | _jesse_,,, i see,, and if one drops it, you are hooped from there on? | 22:10 |
| _jesse_ | Toph: well traceroute sends packets to each router along the path | 22:10 |
| xuodin | Tweaky: delete that menu and put a new drawer with the sam funcion | 22:10 |

| Supari | shane4ubuntu im in the system i see the proc/mounts file is there anything i need to do now or do i just shutdown | 22:11 |
| Tweaky | xuodin: how do i remove and replace places? | 22:11 |
| Toph | _jesse_,,, i'm not trying to do anything complicated,, just wondering , expecially on irc, where an ip origionates | 22:11 |
| Supari | reason why i am asking is because i got the same exact files and setup when i chrooted using the install guide | 22:11 |
| rclauff | @xuodin I hopefully will be able to give you good news | 22:12 |
| Supari | normall i exited the chroot and shutdown the system then rebooted | 22:12 |
| _jesse_ | Toph: I'm not sure I know what you mean by, 'where it originates' | 22:12 |
| shane4ubuntu | Supari: let me double check, I scripted my stuff out, but I'm pretty sure I umounted things in the same order. | 22:12 |
| shane4ubuntu | Supari: I mean reverse order. :) | 22:13 |
| _jesse_ | Toph: you can read how traceroute works on the wikipedia article, but it essentially sends packets with increasing TTLs to map out the path (since the router will return an error message when TTL is decremented to 0) | 22:13 |
| Toph | _jesse_,,, for example,, my ISP is in Calgary,,, so someone in Russia should be able to determine i'm in this area, not? | 22:13 |
| xuodin | Tweaky: RMB - delete of panel - then it should reappear in main gnome menu and then you just add it back to the panel | 22:13 |
| _jesse_ | Toph: you can use geoip services for that sort of thing | 22:13 |
| _jesse_ | Toph: traceroute doesn't give that kind of information | 22:13 |
| Toph | i see | 22:13 |
| Toph | i'll check out geoip | 22:13 |
| wolfric | i do mail root (prompts for subject) test subject (blank) i write a message and go ctrl+d (prompts for cc)i type in wolfric and try enter and ctrl+d but it's just stuck... how do i continue | 22:14 |
| _jesse_ | Toph: try http://www.maxmind.com/app/locate_my_ip e.g. | 22:14 |
| A_New_Server | How would I open the current directory in my terminal in my file browser? | 22:14 |
| Tweaky | xuodin: hm i removed and re added but to no change. maybe its a file type association | 22:14 |
| Toph | _jesse_,,, thanks | 22:14 |
| tezq | hi, anyone use the dm slim ? i want it to start a default session awesome, it doesn't work. according to the mannual, modify the 'sessions' line of /etc/slim.conf and the first name 'awesome' should be the default session, but it's not | 22:15 |
| shane4ubuntu | Supari: here is my script for doing that, once again, the details would need to be edited: http://paste.ubuntu.com/535677/ | 22:15 |
| shane4ubuntu | Supari: but it makes life easier, if you script it out, you can delete the commented lines, they were from before | 22:15 |
| Toph | _jesse_,,, ok,, it identified my IP,, i assume, if i purchase the program it would do the same for any IP i typed in? | 22:16 |
| _jesse_ | Toph: you can use the demo too, but yeah, essentially | 22:16 |
| Toph | ok | 22:17 |
| _jesse_ | Toph: you can look up 25/day with the demo, not sure what your ultimate goal is | 22:17 |
| xuodin | Tweaky: maybe, try to remove movie player and then put it back on | 22:17 |
| Toph | _jesse_,,, my goal is probably closer to 1 a week | 22:18 |
| _jesse_ | Toph: ah then you'll be fine with that :) | 22:18 |

| rclauff | @shodue no, what you want to do is create the key FOR root and give it no password and then put the public key on the opposing server and then just run the rsync as root. It will run the rsync and it will be through an encrypted ssh and because of the keys now you wont be prompted for any password. | 22:50 |
| Amoz | groundx, what's the problem? | 22:50 |

| rclauff | @shodue what you need to do is put the key into the .ssh/authorized keys directory like it says in the documentation, you just have to do it for the root user, then just test it by sshing to the machine as root and see if it works | 22:55 |

| c00kiemon5ter | hi all, to remove some old kernel I just delete it from /boot and then run update-grub. Is that all ? | 22:57 |
| digdeep | hi, I upgrade ubuntu 10.10 to linux-image-2.6.35-23-generic. It says "modprobe vloopback fails" (not able to boot into the graphical interface) | 22:57 |
| allure | Is ubuntu 10.10 having common video and flash lagging issues that I don't know of? | 22:58 |
| guampa | c00kiemon5ter: if it's installed via apt better use some apt compatible removal | 22:58 |
| xangua | allure: flash sucks in linux | 22:58 |
| shodue | rclauff, Do I need to switch to be the root user? I thought you cannot do this in Ubuntu. The instructions just had me type the command "ssh-keygen -t rsa" , that set up my key pair. | 22:59 |
| allure | xangua: yeah, I always knew that, but now videos I downloaded are lagging a lot too | 22:59 |
| c00kiemon5ter | guampa: it's just the updates, that leave the old kernels there | 22:59 |
| trism | c00kiemon5ter: don't delete the kernels from /boot, uninstall the linux-image- packages for the versions you want to remove | 22:59 |
| guampa | c00kiemon5ter: it's not for your system stability, its for apts database coherency | 23:00 |
| ubuntero | c00kiemon5ter, to remove all old kernels run this: dpkg -l 'linux-*' | sed '/^ii/!d;/'"$(uname -r | sed "s/\(.*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/d;s/^[^ ]* [^ ]* \([^ ]*\).*/\1/;/[0-9]/!d' | xargs sudo apt-get -y purge | 23:00 |

| bastidrazor | shodue: what directory are you rsync'ing stuff too that is owned by root? i also think rclauff's idea is a poor one. | 23:00 |
| guampa | if you had installed them by hand there would be no prob | 23:00 |
| c00kiemon5ter | ubuntero: wo :D | 23:00 |

| rclauff | @shodue if you don't need to rsync it as root, DON't. I agree with bast. You just need to use a username that can backup that directory, but use the cert and put it in that users .ssh/authorized users directory. etc /username/.ssh/authorized_users | 23:03 |

| shodue | bastidrazor, rclauff I see, I'll just chown the directory in that case. Going back to the RSA Keys I set up for myusername, should I have not set up a passphrase (I did) ?

| Supari | shane4ubuntu i did not edit the script i just executed the commands in order but before doing so i edited the device and mount locations | 23:10 |

| ProtiK | I'm having a problem. I've been trying to install Ubuntu netbook edition onto my netbook for awhile now, but I'm having a problem. I installed it onto a flash drive using the Universal USB installed, and I boot from it fine. However, when I get into the OS and I click the install button, then click the next button to start the installation, it basically freezes. I can still move the cursor... | 23:12 |
| ProtiK | ...and it shows a loading icon, so it didn't completely crash (I think). I left it on all night just in case it was going extremely slow and nothing happened. Can anyone help me with this? | 23:12 |
| Sickler | hey i just installed the ati driver from the ati website but under system i get two ati control centers, how do i remove one? | 23:12 |
| shane4ubuntu | Sickler: there are two because one is with root privileges that allows you to actually edit things. | 23:13 |

| bastidrazor | Sickler: right click on Applications > Edit Menu navigate to the menu that has control center and uncheck one. | 23:14 |
| pietro10 | Hi. When I have JACK on I don't hear any audio output from anything anymore. jackd1 (I still need portaudio) tied to alsa on the default device. What gives and is there a Ubuntu way to fix it? | 23:14 |
| bazhang | AR_, without caps | 23:14 |
| shane4ubuntu | Sickler: if you want to remove one, right click on menus and select edit | 23:14 |
| Supari | shane4ubuntu mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/installer && mount -o bind /dev /mnt/installer/dev && mount -t proc none /mnt/installer/proc && chroot /mnt/installer /bin/bash && umount /mnt/installer/dev && umont /mnt/installer/proc && unmount /mnt/installer && reboot | 23:14 |
| shane4ubuntu | Sickler: that is odd you have 4 of them. | 23:14 |
| pietro10 | AR_: when is it slow? | 23:14 |
| Supari | shane4ubuntu hold that thought ill brb :D | 23:14 |
| shane4ubuntu | Supari: you don't need reboot | 23:14 |
| guampa | H3r0: i agree with the second link: it may be easier to go with bt | 23:15 |
| ProtiK | Anyone? | 23:15 |
| Sickler | shane4ubuntu, , i installed it from the ati site and not the repos; thats my guess | 23:15 |
| shane4ubuntu | Sickler: did you install it twice??? I have installed many times from ati site, with no probs | 23:15 |
| Sickler | nope | 23:16 |
| Sickler | shane4ubuntu, nope | 23:16 |
| zetheroo1 | this is getting more and more annoying ... it used to be when I booted into Ubuntu that I had to unlock the keyring just once .. now I have to do it 3 times - not nice! | 23:16 |
| ProtiK | Alright, I'll try another channel then. Thanks for the help | 23:16 |
| TrhinocerosRex | howdy all | 23:16 |
| shane4ubuntu | Sickler: that is odd, but should be simple to remove with right click on menu and edit. | 23:16 |
| shane4ubuntu | Sickler: actually, just uncheck the box, that will hide one, incase one works | 23:17 |
| shane4ubuntu | Sickler: incase they are different, and one is defective | 23:17 |
| Sickler | shane4ubuntu, ok thx | 23:17 |

| aeon-ltd | ProtiK: md5sum check the iso | 23:18 |
| aeon-ltd | !md5 | ProtiK | 23:18 |

| bratkartoffel | hello | 23:23 |
| bratkartoffel | im trying to install ubuntu on my netbook but all i get is a black screen with a blinking cursor when i insert the usb install stick | 23:23 |
| ProtiK | aeon-ltd: winMD5Sum says that the hashes are the same. | 23:23 |
| bratkartoffel | is there a fix for this? | 23:23 |
| TrhinocerosRex | bratkartoffel: how did you create the USB install? | 23:23 |
| bratkartoffel | i created it using the usb-installer exe | 23:24 |
| TrhinocerosRex | on a windows machine yes? | 23:24 |
| bratkartoffel | yep | 23:24 |
| Supari | shane4ubuntu did you check the commands ? | 23:24 |
| aeon-ltd | ProtiK: hmmm, is the usb stick fine in all other uses? | 23:24 |
| TrhinocerosRex | bratkartoffel: I had this happen before, I used unetbootin last time and it worked fine for me | 23:24 |
| ProtiK | Yeah | 23:24 |
| ProtiK | aeon-ltd: Yeah | 23:25 |
| bratkartoffel | when i boot from the usb stick it says "syslinux blablabla ...." and then the screen goes black and a blinking cursor appears | 23:25 |
| shane4ubuntu | Supari: yes,that is a mess, what are you trying to do? | 23:25 |
| TrhinocerosRex | bratkartoffel: might want to try unetbootin to create the bootable install | 23:25 |
| aeon-ltd | ProtiK: what netbook is this? | 23:25 |
| rinku_kokiri | what's with #ubuntu-unregged? | 23:25 |
| pietro10 | different question | 23:25 |
| pietro10 | what's the license on the Ubuntu sound effects? | 23:25 |
| ProtiK | aeon-ltd: Asus Aspire One ZG8 | 23:26 |
| rinku_kokiri | Hei, What's with the name of the room? | 23:26 |
| rinku_kokiri | why it ubuntu-unregged? | 23:26 |
| Supari | shane4ubuntu i just installed ubuntu lucid on my appletv... i then got grub working. upon boot the mach_kernel executes and finds the grub config i even see that it finds it but then it just drops to the proc mount error | 23:26 |
| rinku_kokiri | fyne | 23:26 |
| maco | rinku_kokiri: it's for unregistered users | 23:26 |
| rinku_kokiri | well i'm registered, so why am i here | 23:27 |
| maco | rinku_kokiri: you're in #ubuntu | 23:27 |
| shane4ubuntu | Supari: I don't think you understand chrooting | 23:27 |
| pietro10 | you may have been bounced from there to here | 23:27 |
| pietro10 | but you're here now | 23:27 |
| shane4ubuntu | !chroot | Supari | 23:27 |
| ubottu | Supari: A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 23:27 |
| rinku_kokiri | That's not what the title bar says | 23:27 |
| Pici | rinku_kokiri: Its #ubuntu, I assure you. You may be looking at part of the modes that we have set here. | 23:28 |
| shane4ubuntu | Supari: I can't really help you with that, you can read that link about chrooting. | 23:28 |
| aeon-ltd | ProtiK: checking it out now, it has pretty standard hardware (unless you've changed something), so most likely its a bug in the installer, try the regular iso | 23:28 |
| howlymowly | short question: I just reinstalled my system and used "home directory encryption" ... now I have the question: in case I have to restore my home directory... how do I decrypt my own files? | 23:29 |

| nomad | hello all | 23:29 |
| nomad | wubi is a piece of trash | 23:29 |
| ProtiK | aeon-ltd: The desktop iso? | 23:29 |
| nomad | why is it even included at all? | 23:29 |
| nomad | why not just have everyone get a CD? | 23:29 |
| Supari | shane4ubuntu i have followed this | 23:29 |
| Supari | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux | 23:29 |
| aeon-ltd | ProtiK: yeah and just install unity post install | 23:29 |
| === share is now known as Guest71498 | ||
| ProtiK | aeon-ltd: What's that? | 23:29 |
| shane4ubuntu | aeon-ltd: was he booting from USB? I found the installer has probs, I had to boot off CD, but if it is netbook, I'm not sure what he will do. | 23:29 |
| pietro10 | nomad: likely to avoid people wiping their windows partitions by mistake and then yelling at Canonical because they lost their data | 23:29 |
| aeon-ltd | shane4ubuntu: yes | 23:30 |
| nomad | but wubi doesnt work at all | 23:30 |
| nomad | i got wubi from the wubi site | 23:30 |
| pietro10 | it's still called wubi? | 23:30 |
| shane4ubuntu | aeon-ltd: eek, good luck. :) I was disappointed with the USB boot thing this time. | 23:30 |
| aeon-ltd | ProtiK: unity is basically what separates unr from ubuntu, but i think the latest ubuntu has unity anyway | 23:30 |
| nomad | that piece of trash wants to download 10.04.1 | 23:30 |
| nomad | i downloaded 10.10 iso and put it in the same folder as wubi | 23:30 |
| pietro10 | aeon-ltd: next version | 23:30 |
| nomad | wubi still wants to download 10.04 | 23:30 |
| === bryan is now known as Guest85240 | ||
| aeon-ltd | pietro10: thanks for the correction | 23:31 |
| pietro10 | nomad: the 10.10 ISO has the latest wubi on it already | 23:31 |
| nomad | this wubi is telling me "It's 10.04.01 or GTFO" | 23:31 |
| nomad | i know | 23:31 |
| nomad | i tried that one too before | 23:31 |
| ProtiK | aeon-ltd: Alright, thanks. What are the differences between the netbook and desktop version? | 23:31 |
| nomad | the installation ran | 23:31 |
| TrhinocerosRex | thanks! | 23:31 |
| xangua | !language | nomad | 23:31 |
| nomad | then when rebooting | 23:31 |
| ubottu | nomad: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 23:31 |
| aeon-ltd | ProtiK: just that and a few packages | 23:31 |
| nomad | before trying that wubi | 23:31 |
| nomad | i tried the wubi that comes with the iso | 23:32 |
| nomad | it didnt install ubuntu | 23:32 |
| pietro10 | nomad: maybe you should talk to the Wubi maintainers then | 23:32 |
| nomad | after rebooting the boot options were the same | 23:32 |
| pietro10 | it may as well be something with your system | 23:32 |
| nomad | who are they? | 23:32 |
| nomad | what? | 23:32 |
| pietro10 | I don't know, sorry | 23:32 |
| nomad | what could be | 23:32 |
| shane4ubuntu | Supari: sorry I'm not sure what to tell you, I didn't realize you were trying to do an install. | 23:32 |
| nomad | how do i talk to the wubi team? | 23:32 |
| pietro10 | I myself did try wubi at first but my XP install had my username as Consumer and not my first name and that was annoying wihen Wuby went with that by default | 23:32 |
| pietro10 | so | 23:32 |
| nomad | stupid wubi from the wubi site INSISTS in downloading 10.04.1 even if 10.10 iso is there | 23:33 |
| pietro10 | (for this laptop) | 23:33 |
| pietro10 | nomad: if you have broadband then you could update-manager -d from within 10.04 =P | 23:33 |
| bratkartoffel | thanks guys ... unetbootin worked! seems like the win32-image thingy is a piece of garbage | 23:33 |
| Supari | shane4ubuntu its actually already installed just has the proc/mounts issue | 23:33 |
| pietro10 | bratkartoffel: great | 23:33 |
| nomad | im not installing 10.04 | 23:33 |
| nomad | im not doing what wubi tells me | 23:34 |
| pietro10 | then just use the ubuntu installer | 23:34 |
| radiomark | Hi, what Ubuntu should I run on a low spec machine? It's a dual Celeron 600, with 128Mb of RAM ? | 23:34 |
| pietro10 | 10.10's installer is smarter now :P | 23:34 |
| nomad | you mean wubi? | 23:34 |
| bratkartoffel | is there a difference between ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-netbook except that unity stuff? | 23:34 |
| pietro10 | though having done countless linux installs as far back as 2005 or so I can pretty much run through ane xpert install by now | 23:34 |
| shane4ubuntu | !who | pietro10 nomad | 23:34 |
| ubottu | pietro10 nomad: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 23:34 |
| pietro10 | I have to go now anyway | 23:34 |
| nomad | pietro10: so what installer is that | 23:34 |
| rww | bratkartoffel: unity stuff and ubuntu-netbook includes different default applications. The underlying system is the same. | 23:35 |
| nomad | im fed up with this | 23:35 |
| nomad | im not burning a CD | 23:35 |
| ty_ | bratkartoffel, i would not say there is anything else different | 23:35 |
| xangua | then make a boot usb nomad | 23:35 |
| nomad | not doing that either | 23:35 |
| nomad | why cant wubi work? | 23:35 |
| radiomark | I notice the requirements of 10.10 are listed as identical to 10.04. Are they similar? I imagined 10.10 to have higher requirements | 23:35 |
| xangua | then do not nothing | 23:35 |
| nomad | or why cant wubi be pulled off? | 23:35 |
| dauthiwarlord | HELP! ... :) | 23:35 |
| xangua | ........ | 23:35 |
| bratkartoffel | rww ty_: thank you | 23:35 |
| rww | radiomark: yes. There weren't any changes I know of that would increase the system requirements. | 23:36 |
| BLZbubba | is there a way to get ubuntu lucid to boot with init=/bin/sh? i need this to happen after initrd loads the raid driver, unfortunately | 23:36 |
| radiomark | rww: Thanks. So for my older system (Dual Celeron 600, 128Mb RAM), should I consider an older Ubuntu? Or would 10.10 be just fine? | 23:36 |
| rww | radiomark: If you've run 10.04 on it, 10.10 should run about the same. I don't know enuogh about th Celeron line to know how fast it is. | 23:37 |
| rww | 128MB of RAM seems low, though. | 23:38 |
| ty_ | radiomark, why dont you run xubuntu on it | 23:38 |
| radiomark | rww: Well I know it isn't going to be very fast at all. Potentially more RAM is available | 23:38 |
| sbeck | Absolutely, yes. | 23:38 |
| radiomark | ty_: Ah, I didn't know about xubuntu | 23:38 |

| heebie | Hi. i've just installed 10.10, and for some reason..after updating to the nVidia drivers from nVidia.. the system won't boot anymore. I haven't found any fixes online other than switching back to the "nv" driver (which uses xorg's nvidia driver that doesn't support 3d or acceleration) instead… and on top of that the system just won't boot. Has anyone else run across this? | 23:59 |
| androidbruce | in linux it's fail | 23:59 |
| radi | androidbruce, you can use vdpau with linux tho | 23:59 |
| radi | but i cant fix that flash nonsense | 23:59 |
