| TheoMurpse | I forgot the username and password to an install of xubuntu on an ooooold box. I know I can boot into recovery mode to get that info, but when I boot into recovery mode, it asks for a root password. I sure as heck don't remember setting any root password, and Googling gives me one result after another that denies there even IS a root password. | 00:39 |
|---|---|---|
| TheoMurpse | So what is the default root password for xubuntu in recovery mode? | 00:39 |
| TheoMurpse | Follow-up question: has this always been the case? Because this is an old install of xubuntu from maybe a couple years ago or more. I'm not even sure what version of xubuntu is installed. | 00:40 |
| TheoMurpse | Thanks anyway. I managed to find my way in by altering GRUB. | 01:01 |
| TheoMurpse | Turns out I haven't logged in since April 2007! | 01:01 |

| likemindead | A second speaker/audio icon has appeared in my panel. All on its own. I haven't installed or changed anything. How can I make it go away? | 19:28 |
| moetunes | likemindead: if you right click it you should have the option to remove it | 19:30 |
| likemindead | This new one does not. | 19:30 |
| Sysi | it's on notification area? | 19:30 |
| likemindead | When you right click on it, you get "Mute" or "Sound Preferences" & that is all. | 19:30 |
| likemindead | I think so, Sysi. | 19:30 |
| likemindead | But I've been running 10.10 for weeks and it just appeared today for no reason. Has a GNOME look to it. | 19:31 |
| likemindead | http://imagebin.org/124540 <--image of what I'm talking about. | 19:34 |
| likemindead | Well, I see that I can hide it on the tray notification properties. Still don't know why it just appeared suddenly. :-\ | 19:35 |
| moetunes | maybe an update... | 19:36 |
| likemindead | That is my suspicion as well. | 19:38 |
| bassmax | hello all | 20:02 |
| bassmax | i've a problem on Xubuntu using scribus | 20:04 |
| likemindead | !hi | bassmax | 20:05 |
| ubottu | bassmax: Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 20:05 |
| likemindead | Explain your problem, bassmax? | 20:05 |
| bassmax | Scribus doesn't catch any letter of my keyboard except space and enter | 20:07 |
| likemindead | You might try asking over at #scribus ( http://www.scribus.net/irc ). | 20:08 |
| bassmax | i've tryied to import a lipsum text, it works, but the text is highlignt in red | 20:08 |
| likemindead | I haven't actually used Scribus. Anyone else? | 20:09 |
| bassmax | ok thanks i'll try on scribus channel | 20:10 |
| bassmax | i hope it's not a problem with Xubuntu | 20:10 |
| TheSheep | scribus doesn't work like a text processor | 20:11 |
| TheSheep | you need to add a text box to enter text in it | 20:11 |
| bassmax | yep, i did it | 20:11 |
| bassmax | i create a text box and try to write text in ... | 20:12 |
| TheSheep | I think you select 'edit text' and put the text in a saparate window | 20:15 |
| bassmax | yes, you can do that by the two way you mention | 20:16 |
| TheSheep | I have really given up on scribus once I realized that I can control kerning in Inkscape | 20:18 |
| TheSheep | but then again I mostly do single-page or two-page thingies | 20:19 |
| bassmax | TheSheep : Thanx for help, i'm on scribus channel now, i try to resolve it. | 20:30 |

| Hc96 | hi! Which package do I have to install to get starttls? Im using xubuntu 10.10 | 20:55 |
| likemindead | You check Synaptic? | 20:56 |
| Hc96 | yes, there is no package named starttls | 20:57 |
| Hc96 | I think about sendmail but I'm not sure | 20:57 |
| likemindead | What is it, then? | 20:57 |
| Hc96 | What's what? | 20:57 |
| likemindead | Looks like starttls may be outdated. There seem to be several alternatives in the repos. | 20:58 |
| Hc96 | So what would you suggest? should I try sendmail or wont it be inside? | 20:59 |

| TheSheep | vandyk: did you configure their ip addresses manually, or did you configure dhcp server on your pc? | 22:22 |
| vandyk | I configure manually, in this PC and the clients PC | 22:28 |
| vandyk | if i use in terminal ifconfig show me this settings | 22:29 |
| vandyk | Direc. inet:10.42.43.1 Difus.:10.42.43.255 Másc:255.255.255.0 | 22:29 |
| vandyk | in the client PC (run in windows) i put 10.42.43.3 as ip 255.255.255.0 as netmask and 10.42.43.41 as a default gateway | 22:30 |
| vandyk | sorry 10.42.43.1 as default gateway | 22:31 |
| TheSheep | you did configure firewall and kernel to do forwarding? | 22:31 |
| TheSheep | can you ping the clients from the server? | 22:31 |
| vandyk | i dont know how to ping in linux | 22:32 |
| vandyk | but in windows i can ping to this PC | 22:32 |
| TheSheep | ping 10.42.43.3 | 22:32 |
| vandyk | yes i think the ping works | 22:34 |
| vandyk | 64 bytes from 10.42.43.3: icmp_seq=37 ttl=128 time=0.161 ms | 22:34 |
| TheSheep | but if it works one way, it should work the other | 22:34 |
| TheSheep | ok, what does 'ip r' say? | 22:34 |
| vandyk | sorry? | 22:34 |
| vandyk | right now continue making ping | 22:35 |
| vandyk | this thing dont stop | 22:35 |

| TheSheep | yeah, yeah | 22:36 |
| TheSheep | type: ip r | 22:36 |
| moetunes | I was suprised to find that in windows and linux ping works the same - ping -c 3 www.google.com does the same thing | 22:36 |
| vandyk | 189.145.138.96/28 dev wlan0 proto kernel scope link src 189.145.138.103 metric 2 | 22:36 |

| TheSheep | moetunes: they took ping from unices | 22:36 |
| moetunes | yep | 22:36 |
| TheSheep | moetunes: actually, both linux and windows has the tcp/ip stack from bsd | 22:37 |
| moetunes | ohh didn't know that :) | 22:37 |
| TheSheep | vandyk: looks good | 22:40 |
| TheSheep | vandyk: I wonder why you have two ip addresses on eth0 | 22:40 |
| vandyk | TheSheep: really? i cant using internet in the clients | 22:41 |
| TheSheep | vandyk: the last things, kernel and firewall | 22:41 |
| TheSheep | vandyk: that should be described on that csi link | 22:41 |
| TheSheep | ics, sorry | 22:41 |
| vandyk | TheSheep: I already have firestarter | 22:42 |
| vandyk | TheSheep: and i already use the setup utility of filestarter | 22:42 |
| TheSheep | did you setup forwarding like here? | 22:43 |
| TheSheep | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing?action=show&redirect=InternetConnectionSharing#Gateway set up | 22:43 |
| TheSheep | also, see the 'enable routing' section in there | 22:43 |
| TheSheep | it's important | 22:44 |
| vandyk | TheSheep: Let me see | 22:44 |
| vandyk | TheSheep: In this case i need to replace eth0 to wlan0? | 22:47 |
| vandyk | TheSheep: Beacause i only have one Eth card in each PC | 22:47 |
| TheSheep | I meant this | 22:48 |
| TheSheep | sudo sh -c "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward" | 22:48 |
| vandyk | TheShip: Ok i do it now | 22:50 |
| vandyk | TheShip: i need to the lines at sysctl.conf at the end of the document right? | 22:51 |
| TheSheep | vandyk: that's so that you don't have to repeat it after every reboot | 22:52 |
| vandyk | TheShip: ok i do it | 22:53 |
| vandyk | TheShip: I also do the steps to configure the NAT? | 22:54 |
| vandyk | TheShip: Im really sorry, im a newbie, before when this pc run in windows i dont do this things | 22:55 |
| TheSheep | vandyk: if you did the nat in firestarter already, it should work | 22:55 |
| vandyk | TheShip: I dont do anything in firestarter, i only run the setup wizard | 22:56 |
| TheSheep | ah, then you need to set up that nat | 22:57 |
| vandyk | TheShip: i need to do Setup nat in firestarter or like in the ICS document | 22:58 |
| TheSheep | try the ics | 22:59 |
| vandyk | TheSheep: in this line sudo iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -s 192.168.0.0/24 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW -j ACCEPT | 22:59 |
| vandyk | TheSheep: i need to change eth0 to wlan0 and eth1 to eth0? | 23:00 |
| TheSheep | yes, probably | 23:00 |
| vandyk | TheSheep: or i put straight the lines? | 23:00 |
| TheSheep | and ip ranges | 23:00 |
| TheSheep | no, you have to change them | 23:00 |
| TheSheep | to your situation | 23:00 |
| vandyk | TheSheep: about the ip i need to put the server ip? in this case 10.42.43.1? | 23:01 |
| TheSheep | 10.42.43.0/24 | 23:03 |
| vandyk | TheSheep: i dont know what means the command -s 192.168.0.0/24 | 23:03 |
| TheSheep | it's the network ip and mask | 23:04 |
| TheSheep | /24 means the same as 255.255.255.0 | 23:04 |
| vandyk | ahh ok | 23:04 |
| TheSheep | 8+8+8 = 24 | 23:04 |
| vandyk | TheSheep: Ok Thanks! | 23:04 |
| vandyk_ | TheSheep: Sorry | 23:09 |

| vandyk_ | TheSheep: I have a energy cut =( | 23:10 |
| vandyk_ | TheSheep: Do i need to repeat all the steps? | 23:10 |
