| kreuter | hi #ubuntu. is there a way to for a package to prevent 'apt-get upgrade' from restarting a service when the package gets upgraded? (I've got users who want to minimize downtime, and want the restart to be something they do manually, but can't figure out how to do that for them.) | 18:41 |

| a931bw | oerh thanks | 18:41 |
| CrzyCDN | histo - did that too | 18:41 |

| bonjoyee | thinkfire : try sharing something in you /home...see if that works? | 18:42 |
| abbbbbbx | h0ho: why re-install it? | 18:42 |
| histo | h0ho: or ubuntu-minimal | 18:42 |
| h0ho | i know but i was fiddling about with the binarys in /bin and its not working properly, so do i just do apt-get reinstall ls? | 18:42 |
| micols | kreuter: I don't think there is such a thing, but you can put the package on hold to manually upgrade it when you want | 18:42 |

| thinkfire | bonjoyee, cannot access \dropkick\shares\ | 18:50 |

| nirazio | How to install ochem for texlive?? | 18:52 |
| thinkfire | same thing in terminal using net view \\dropkick\ | 18:53 |
| thinkfire | just the printers, not the folders | 18:53 |
| histo | brukutu: that will control what your laptop does when running on battery. So you can stop it from suspending | 18:53 |
| histo | thinkfire: on the linux box try smbtree | 18:53 |
| brukutu | its like instant histo....as i unplug it will sleep.... | 18:53 |

| hd1 | hmm... weird, on my asus 1005ha, it seems that the num lock has been pressed and i can't seem to get it off, rebooting doesn't help either, any ideas? | 18:53 |
| thinkfire | histo, its not install and aptitude does not install it when requesting | 18:53 |
| UnholyTerror | kreuter, the service will only be down while *that* package is updated... not the whole update process. | 18:53 |
| histo | brukutu: okay and what is the setting for batter suspend? | 18:53 |
| bonjoyee | thinkfire: did u try the ip address and not the hostname.. | 18:53 |
| thinkfire | E: Couldn't find package smbtree | 18:54 |
| brukutu | how do i get to that batteyr tab from terminal? | 18:54 |
| thinkfire | hostname is working fine, I can still see printers, trying IP instead | 18:54 |
| MTrain | hey guys real quick question how do i run an rpm file in ubuntu | 18:54 |
| thinkfire | same thing with IP | 18:54 |
| thinkfire | just the shared printers | 18:54 |
| kreuter | UnholyTerror: right, right. I mean, in principle you could imagine a package system that worked the other way, but that's what dpkg does. | 18:55 |
| histo | thinkfire: well it's part of samba so you should have it if you are sharing something | 18:55 |
| histo | thinkfire: also if you type in sudo smbtree it will tell you the package you need to install | 18:55 |
| thinkfire | I didnt fine libpamsmb in synaptic | 18:55 |
| thinkfire | trying apt | 18:55 |
| thinkfire | histo, see above | 18:55 |
| thinkfire | E: Couldn't find package smbtree | 18:55 |
| thinkfire | when using sudo apt-get install smbtree | 18:55 |
| histo | thinkfire: that isn't the name of the package | 18:55 |
| histo | thinkfire: what is the output of sudo smbtree | 18:55 |
| monkeybox | MTrain, maybe use Alien | 18:56 |
| thevishy | folkx | 18:56 |
| thinkfire | smbclient is name of package | 18:56 |
| thinkfire | using apt-get install smbclient I get | 18:57 |

| thinkfire | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 18:57 |
| histo | thinkfire: because you have update manager or synaptic running | 18:57 |
| sam-_- | thinkfire, close synaptic | 18:57 |
| thinkfire | closed, that worked | 18:57 |
| thinkfire | installing via apt | 18:57 |

| histo | thinkfire: what folder are you trying to share? | 19:07 |
| thinkfire | bonjoyee, which section? | 19:08 |

| === mentr is now known as mentr_bnc | ||
| thinkfire | maybe initial samba installation was borked or something and that reinstall helped | 19:14 |
| Typh | histo: no change :( | 19:14 |
| thinkfire | or I just fubared it from the start somehow | 19:14 |
| thinkfire | haha | 19:14 |
| Vizzle | in cases where one is allowing access to others to your ubuntu machine, how should usernames be set in terms of permissions? | 19:15 |
| histo | Typh: after the deb is removed then install the package | 19:15 |
| histo | Typh: make sure it redownloads it | 19:15 |
| bonjoyee | thinkfire: think nautilus-share did the trick...i assumed that to be installed..but since this is a server it was not | 19:15 |
| UnholyTerror | kreuter, It specifically says that it does/can. | 19:15 |
| histo | Typh: if not maybe the package is broken from whatever mirror you are using | 19:15 |
| histo | thinkfire: if it's a server why do you have a gui? | 19:16 |
| UnholyTerror | kreuter, 'postinst' scripts then execute any commands necessary to start or restart a service once a new package has been installed or upgraded. | 19:16 |

| shdwpuppet | has anyone had success with getting 10.10 to work on the Eee PC 1215N, particularly the nvidia ion2? | 19:16 |
| xangua | do you¿ shdwpuppet | 19:16 |
| thinkfire | I dunno, I am new, I wanted to use it to mainly serve files and whatnot, so I selected server, then installed gnome when I couldnt get filesharing going properly, thinking a GUI would be easier | 19:16 |
| shdwpuppet | im sorry xangua? | 19:16 |
| Typh | histo: no change, and I'm using http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ | 19:16 |
| histo | Typh: I'm not running 10.10 so I can't check the package | 19:17 |
| thinkfire | Did I defeat the purpose of installing it as server by installing a GUI? | 19:17 |
| histo | Typh: maybe someone else can help | 19:17 |
| GeekyAdam | thinkfire: you'd prob be better off just installing ubuntu desktop then configuring servers. the real power in ubuntu (and most linux servers) lies in being able to use command-line well. | 19:17 |
| histo | thinkfire: not really it's your preference | 19:17 |
| UnholyTerror | kreuter, look at examples in /var/lib/dpkg/info | 19:18 |

| PhilipPhilip | try to access it from another account nirazio | 19:24 |
| Noobster | PhilipPhilip, I never distro upgrade personally I find it to not be as stable | 19:24 |
| Pici | PhilipPhilip: When you say 'it' is tilleing you that a new version of Ubuntu is available, what do you mean by 'it'? | 19:25 |
| RogueShadow | I've always had trouble after upgrading also, I always install fresh. | 19:25 |
| PhilipPhilip | yes, seems that way Noobster - but I have so many other programs installed, i didnt want to do a clean instal, just an upgrade and keep all the settings | 19:25 |
| nirazio | PhilipPhilip: So what would happen if i access it from another acc?? | 19:25 |
| Noobster | nirazio, try booting off the cd and seeing if you can access the data | 19:25 |
| RogueShadow | Most, if not all the settings can be saved by saving your home folder | 19:25 |
| sam-_- | nirazio, check /etc/fstab | 19:26 |
| Noobster | PhilipPhilip, have you looked @ your log files? | 19:26 |
| PhilipPhilip | Pici, update manager says, "New Ubuntu release 10.10 available | 19:26 |
| nirazio | sam-_-: fstab??? | 19:26 |
| Pici | PhilipPhilip: What does the output of lsb_release -d say? | 19:26 |
| PhilipPhilip | i click on upgrade, it doesnt do it | 19:26 |
| GeekyAdam | nirazio: if you boot off a livecd or something else, when you mount the drive your home folder is on and try to look at your home folder's contents, you shouldnt see anything. then you know encryption is working. | 19:27 |

| axisys | is this valid? GRUB_TERMINAL="--timeout=5 serial console" | 19:58 |

| PhilipPhilip | Hey guys, no luck still. | 20:02 |
| GeekyAdam | PhilipPhilip: has the output changed at all? | 20:02 |
| Pici | joe847: the 'LTS' part of the release name means that you will be receiving security updates, not new software versions just because upstream released one. | 20:02 |
| Pici | !latest | joe847 | 20:03 |
| ubottu | joe847: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 20:03 |

| JoeCoolNetbook | roy_1, just use a livecd or your other linux and do a dpkg-reconfigure grub2 on sda | 20:09 |
| roy_1 | i tried to reinstall grub from the live cd (where i am now), but it says /dev not mounted | 20:10 |
| GeekyAdam | PhilipPhilip: you need to enable the bootlogger: 1. edit file /etc/defaults/bootlogd (change "no" to "yes") 2. reboot - daemon is started at boot then stopped after it finishes 3. check /var/log/boot | 20:10 |
| JoeCoolNetbook | roy_1, mount it. | 20:10 |
| JPeterson | all info on mouse tweaking that i find seems out of date, for example there is no/etc/modprobe.d/options in maverick | 20:11 |

I added to /etc/network/interfaces "auto eth0" but it doesn't seem to help. "sudo dhclient" will get my network up fine. | 20:26 |
| lucas-arg | borreguito, burn the iso to a cd and install it to the usb... install grub in the /dev/sdb instead of /dev/sda | 20:27 |

| doriangrey | hi if i want to move all .mp3 and .mid and .waw etc what is the commnad? like this mv location/where/isnow/*.mp3.waw.mid /new/location is this correct? | 21:01 |
| histo | noah: jdb any reason you are asking in #ubuntu since you've deleted it? | 21:01 |
| histo | noah: ask the pinguy people | 21:01 |
| linxeh | doriangrey: no | 21:01 |
| Sean93 | my power button has dissapeared from my toolbar | 21:01 |
| Dabian | erUSUL: Thats what I thought, but a restart of the Xserver, seems to revert my changes. | 21:01 |
| noah | itilious: Yeah, that's the idea. | 21:01 |
| itilious | noah, did you install ubuntu first? | 21:01 |
| linxeh | doriangrey: mv location/*.mp3 location/*.wav location/*.mid /new/location | 21:01 |
| histo | itilious: with pinguy and windows he got rid of ubuntu | 21:01 |
| noah | I didn't know they had an irc... I clicked on x-chat and this is the first window it opened, so I assumed it didn't. | 21:01 |
| linxeh | doriangrey: you can simplify that with clever glob rules, but thats the easiest | 21:01 |
| erUSUL | Dabian: check that ~/.config/monitors.xml is not in the way ( remove it ) | 21:01 |
| noah | Plus, pinguy it close enough to ubuntu that I figured I should be able to find an answer here | 21:02 |
| ilovefairuz | doriangrey: mv /path/*.{mp3,wav,mid} /new/path | 21:02 |
| Dabian | erUSUL: Its there. :) | 21:02 |
| itilious | noah, i recently installed ubuntu first on my laptop, then windows xp, and got them to successfully dual boot using grub | 21:02 |
| Dabian | Sun of a gun! Thats it, I think! Thanks erUSUL ! | 21:02 |
| linxeh | doriangrey: basically the shell will expand *.mp3 etc into a long list of files, and mv treats the last parameter as destiniation - so you end up with mv foo.mp3 bar.mp3 foobar.mp3 foobaz.wav /new/location (in effect) | 21:02 |
| Noobster | can someone help with getting bind9 installed on ubuntu 10.04 lts server? | 21:02 |

| halpp | Hi. I seem to have this recurring problem: my browsers seem to chew up more memory as time goes on, and they grey out (compiz) very often after a few hours. Shutting them down and restarting them again does not fix the issue. Is there something I can use to diagnose the problem? | 21:02 |
| histo | noah: but I would ask there support and see | 21:02 |

| guntbert | Noobster: #ubuntu-server is probably a better place for your question | 21:03 |
| noah | itilious: Yeah, but I found pinguy's installer to have issues with the current ubuntu install, so I deleted the ubuntu partition, expanded the windows one, then shrunk it again (I know it sounds complicated but it made more sense at the time) | 21:03 |
| Dabian | GNOME then, I guess. | 21:03 |
| frox | ilovefairuz: thanks | 21:03 |

| erUSUL | Dabian: no that i know of. the new gdm is just not as configurable as the old one. fact of life | 21:06 |

| ExEr101 | thx everyone | 21:25 |
| ^Phantom2^ | No, sir! I'll be putting ubuntu on the laptop ^_^ | 21:25 |
| ^Phantom2^ | Well, maybe I'll keep the VM, cause having both Windows and Ubuntu on the same screen at the same time is kind of fun. | 21:25 |
| ^Phantom2^ | Anywho, it's a good plan, isn't it? | 21:26 |
| killybilly | lol, in #linux they didn't know either.. . T_T... any other chan in which i could ask? xD | 21:26 |
| ^Phantom2^ | I had ubuntu on my old laptop (8.10) and I *LOVED* it. | 21:27 |
| leonardo_ | \join #thacker | 21:27 |
| ^Phantom2^ | Which is why I intend to put it on my new one, when I get the ram upgraded ^_^ | 21:27 |

| bucky | killybilly, what was the question just for fun, i missed it | 21:27 |
| killybilly | is there a way to enable/disable persistency on a ubuntu live USB? | 21:27 |
| killybilly | xD | 21:27 |
| Scunizi | pavucontrol will not start .. it errors with "Connection Failed: Connection refused".. how do I fix this? or should I? I'm trying to record my google voice outgoing call to a teleconference | 21:28 |
| bucky | killybilly, don't know much about live usb, what is persistency? | 21:28 |
| ilovefairuz | Scunizi: do this and try again: pulseaudio -k | 21:29 |
| ^Phantom2^ | I just have one question: Is ubuntu able to connect to ad-hoc networks which provide internet access? | 21:29 |
| ilovefairuz | ^Phantom2^: yes | 21:29 |
| Scunizi | ilovefairuz: makes sense now.. I'm on kubuntu which apparently doesn't have pulseaudio installed as default | 21:29 |
| zdz | n | 21:29 |
| killybilly | bucky: a layer which saves changes committed to a live disk | 21:30 |
| zdz | hello | 21:30 |
| ^Phantom2^ | I ask, because I can use my mytouch 3G to create an access point, but its hardware is older and doesn't support creating infrastructure APs. | 21:30 |
| ^Phantom2^ | That is awesome, ilovefairuz | 21:30 |
| ^Phantom2^ | I am thinking I'll get the RAM with my christmas money XD | 21:31 |

| ilovefairuz | vvvccc: the encoding needs to be changed or you're missing a font that supports displaying this character .. | 21:33 |
| vvvccc | sam-_- how to? im using mousepad xubuntu | 21:33 |
| bucky | killybilly, are you trying to add something like a custom install usb? if it's plugged into a box that is running linux you need to umount the usb before removing it | 21:33 |
| Spirits-Sight | what are the folds (directories) that I should keep seperate from the main OS so in future I could do a reinstall and not have to more all the users data to a different drive just to reinstall new verisons? I know the /home but are there any other ones? Also how much space should I give to the pri part of the drive? and last but less when I do say the update / reinstall of say 11.04 where its going to have | 21:33 |

| ilovefairuz | vvvccc: check around the menus or try gedit | 21:33 |
| Spirits-Sight | Sorry for a long winded post | 21:33 |
| ^Phantom2^ | I came to love ubuntu when I had it on my old laptop, and that is why I have no interest in Windows 7. I'd rather have ubuntu linux. ^_^ | 21:33 |

| Faissal | hi there, anyone knows how one can install madwifi drivers on my ubuntu 10.10 ? | 21:35 |

| Spirits-Sight | sam-_- could you PM me please so its easer for my eyes to follow what you saying and I can ask a few other questions related to this | 21:38 |
| ^Phantom2^ | well, one more thing...the new laptop is a handmedown, but it has a brand new battery, 2GHz processor, 256mb vram, and supports up to 1GB of ram, which is perfect for ubuntu, once I get the new ram. :D | 21:38 |

| Wicked | hello all. Im using transmission to download files to a samba mount. My normal user can read/write fine to the mounted samba share....but transmission-daemon(the transmission user/group) has issues. Ive added my normal user to the transmission ground and ive added transmission to my normal users group. I then ran "chmod 770" on my mounted share...but for some reasons transmission keeps having issues. | 21:43 |
| breadcrumb | !ops | 21:43 |
| detrix42 | I compiled a program on my desktop, but want to install the program on my wife's netbook. How do I do this? | 21:44 |

| Wicked | im trying to find out the permissions i need to set for both my normal user and the transmission daemon can access them | 21:44 |
| brukutu | Wicet, access what? | 21:45 |
| brukutu | Wicked, access what? | 21:45 |
| Wicked | brukutu, the samba share. right now transmission keeps stopping torrents with the permission denied error. | 21:46 |
| brukutu | any idea of how to read value of accelerometer from cmd line? | 21:46 |
| brukutu | Wicked, so u got a samba drive mounted, where you save your torrents on? | 21:46 |
| Wicked | yea | 21:46 |
| brukutu | Wicked, just mount it as the user that is running tramission. | 21:47 |
| Wicked | normal user can access all the files...but the debian-transmission cannot | 21:47 |
| Wicked | well....thats not really ideal | 21:47 |
| * folklore slaps Wicked around a bit with a large trout | 21:47 | |
| sam-_- | brukutu, depends on the accelerometer | 21:47 |
| Wicked | as downloading torrents is just one use of the drive...my normal user should(and does) get priority access. i just need transmission to have access also | 21:47 |
| guntbert | folklore: don't | 21:47 |
| brukutu | sam-_-, how do i find out wich one i got? | 21:48 |
| ^Phantom2^ | Here's a probably annoying question: If I copy the laptop's entire hard drive to a back up drive (it's only ~30GB), would I be able to just up and copy eveything back over if an xubuntu installation fails? Because I don't have any recovery or windows reinstallation CD for it. :S | 21:48 |
| sam-_- | brukutu, maybe it's accessible via /sys/ | 21:48 |
| folklore | guntbert don't what | 21:48 |
| sam-_- | brukutu, start with a lshw maybe | 21:48 |
| brukutu | sam-_-, okie hold on | 21:48 |

| ilovefairuz | Harlequin: to save space from the installation disk | 21:49 |
| breadcrumb | Wicked, as long as the debian-transmission group has write access to the download folder, it should work.. | 21:49 |
| breadcrumb | thats how i have mine set up | 21:49 |

| Wicked | breadcrumb, it should. ive added my normal user(mike) to the debian-transmission group. and ive added the debian-transmission user to the mike group...i then chmod'ed the folder to 770...which seems to work for a little bit..but somehow it always gets unset. | 21:50 |
| Wicked | also doing "chmod g+rw" on the folder works as well | 21:51 |
| ^Phantom2^ | I don't have any more blank CDs, and that laptop can't boot from USB, so I'll come back with questions after I get some CDs. It might be a while, though, cause no job. Thank you again for your help, everyone. ^_^ | 21:51 |
| ilovefairuz | ^Phantom2^: yes make an image of the disk or the partition want back up, for example: sudo dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/media/usbdisk/backup.img | 21:51 |
| skullboy | i gone to install my video driver and it said there is an xserver running now what | 21:51 |
| Wicked | breadcrumb, are you specifying the create umask on the samba server(in the smb.conf)? | 21:51 |
| dimension_775 | Harlequin: probably because ubuntu is targeted toward new linux users, and gimp as we all know is quite an advanced, feature rich program. most new ubuntu users aren't going to use it, but luckily for the rest of us, it's in the repos and can be installed with a single command | 21:52 |
| breadcrumb | breadcrumb, yes... i do remember changing that to something | 21:52 |
| Wicked | breadcrumb, or are you using any options to mount the drive locally(like uid or gid in the fstab)? | 21:52 |
| ilovefairuz | ^Phantom2^: use a live cd to to the backup and/or restore | 21:52 |
| ^Phantom2^ | ilovefairuz, thank you so much, that is so awesome. | 21:52 |
| breadcrumb | er, Wicked i mean | 21:52 |
| breadcrumb | dunno why im talking to my self | 21:52 |
| Wicked | lol | 21:52 |
| ^Phantom2^ | I'll do the backup once I get a live xubuntu alternative CD made... | 21:52 |
| Wicked | breadcrumb, ive set my create mask to 0770 | 21:52 |
| dimension_775 | Harlequin: and actually, i think they got rid of gimp starting with lucid 10.04 | 21:52 |
| skullboy | i gone to install my video driver and it said there is an xserver running now what | 21:52 |

| skullboy | i gone to install my video driver and it said there is an xserver running now what | 21:55 |
| Wicked | skullboy, shutdown xorg | 21:55 |
| Wicked | skullboy, iirc /etc/init.d/gdm stop should stop xorg. | 21:55 |
| breadcrumb | Wicked, in /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json i changed the umask value to "0" - cant remember exactly why, i know it was something with permissions | 21:56 |
| yannick | bonsoir | 21:56 |
| breadcrumb | i think i couldnt delete any files through the share | 21:56 |
| Wicked | breadcrumb, ah let me check mine. | 21:56 |
| breadcrumb | that were downloaded by transmission | 21:56 |
| Wicked | breadcrumb, hmm my umask in settings.json is 18 by default. im gonna try to make it 0. | 21:57 |
| breadcrumb | Wicked you have to stop the transmission service before you edit that file, just fyi | 21:57 |

| fadul | Hi | 21:58 |
| ilovefairuz | hello fadul | 21:59 |
| Wicked | hmm. though...im reading real quick....i think that setting in transmission is only for files it creates....not really sure its related to my issue. | 21:59 |
| Wicked | since transmissin needs permissions to write to disk....to apply that umask | 21:59 |
| n8dyddy | ok, apparently i dint even have a synaptics driver... | 22:00 |
| n8dyddy | *don't | 22:00 |
| Wicked | Users who want their saved torrents to be world-writable may want to set this value to 0. | 22:00 |
| n8dyddy | `synclient -l' tells me that | 22:00 |

| aszpain2 | hmmmm | 23:11 |
| tensorpudding | but since xorg can work without one now, you almost never need it | 23:11 |
| mgolisch | aszpain2: not realy as pkgconfig returns the correct include paths for a package, its probably just that the build scripts are done badly | 23:11 |
| erUSUL | juggmo: you can try this « sudo Xorg -configure :1 » and then copy the generated xorg.conf to /etc/X11/ | 23:11 |

| luxurymode | can anyone recommend some must-have apps after first install of ubuntu? | 23:45 |
| kcorcoran | i am planning to download/compile (learning to at least) a program. i have read the documentation explaining the dependencies of the application i am installing. how can i check my system to determine if a) i already have the dependent program and b) if its the correct version? ANSWER: dpkg | 23:45 |
| === Compositor is now known as HandCompositor | ||
| kcorcoran | luxurymode: flightgear :) | 23:45 |
| vacho | thanks! | 23:46 |
| tensorpudding | luxurymode: emacs, google chrome, avant window navigator, eclipse | 23:46 |
| fleshpike | tensorpudding : is it possible to install motherboard drivers as graphical in ubuntu? | 23:46 |
| sogelen | 你们好 | 23:46 |
| tensorpudding | !cn | sogelen | 23:46 |
| ubottu | sogelen: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 23:46 |
| vacho | Fookin_Prawn: I created a new user and I still have issues with my cursor keys..wierd. | 23:47 |
| tensorpudding | fleshpike: why do you think it's a driver issue? | 23:47 |
| luxurymode | tensorpudding: thank you! | 23:47 |
| tensorpudding | luxurymode: those are my "must-haves", but i doubt you'll find them as such | 23:47 |
| luxurymode | tensorpudding: how do i quickly find out names of apps so i know how to ref it for sudo apt-get install APPNAME? | 23:47 |
| fleshpike | tensorpudding : i guess i had the same problem in windows i cant remember | 23:47 |
| Fookin_Prawn | vacho: that's ubuntu for you lol | 23:47 |
| tensorpudding | luxurymode: the easy way to install apps is using the software center, you can search names and descriptions | 23:48 |
| tensorpudding | luxurymode: but if you really want to use apt by hand, "apt-cache search <foo>" will list all packages matching <foo> in name or description | 23:48 |
| fleshpike | tensorpudding : when i had the two systems installed somehow windows "managed"ubuntu | 23:48 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: this new user has the same bash config as the old one... | 23:49 |
| luxurymode | tensorpudding: thanks! | 23:49 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: you need to delete it | 23:49 |
| vacho | tensorpudding: how | 23:49 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: as the user, do "rm ~/.bash*" | 23:49 |
| Fookin_Prawn | must-haves: vim, irssi... | 23:50 |
| fleshpike | tensorpudding : dont know how to solve it soo i thought about drivers | 23:50 |
| aetaric | booting a thin-client ubuntu 10.04, it starts eth0 up, and then my cisco router(dhcp server) spews errors about malformed option 61. any ideas about how to solve? | 23:50 |
| tensorpudding | fleshpike: if you had the problem in both, it's almost surely a hardware issue, not drivers | 23:50 |
| tensorpudding | fleshpike: in which case, it might well be because the system is old | 23:50 |
| vacho | tensorpudding: did that and logged out and then in .. still same issue. | 23:50 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: but running "bash --noprofile" works? | 23:50 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: are you sure that your shell is bash? | 23:51 |
| fleshpike | tensorpudding : when you mention old do you refer to much use? | 23:51 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: before running bash --noprofile, tell me what you get when you do "echo $SHELL" | 23:51 |
| vacho | tensorpudding: no im not.. im doign ssh | 23:51 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: ssh just mediates a connection, it defers to the VPS user's shell for everything else | 23:52 |
| vacho | i get . /bin/sh | 23:52 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: well that's why | 23:52 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: sh doesn't support arrow keys | 23:52 |
| vacho | tensorpudding: ok? | 23:52 |
| fleshpike | hello | 23:52 |
| vacho | tensorpudding: :) | 23:52 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: run "chsh -s /bin/bash" | 23:52 |
| tensorpudding | then log out and in again | 23:52 |
| fleshpike | tensorpudding : the connection went down. do you read me? | 23:53 |
| fleshpike | tensorpudding : when you mention old do you mean to much use? | 23:53 |
| tensorpudding | fleshpike: when i said old, it could well be that your memory has degraded and has errors, or that your video card is glitching | 23:53 |
| tensorpudding | fleshpike: this is usually due to use, yes | 23:54 |
| Thanos_b161 | hellon everyone | 23:54 |
| tensorpudding | fleshpike: you can test the memory to figure out if that is the reason | 23:54 |
| tensorpudding | fleshpike: using memtest86+ | 23:54 |
| vacho | tensorpudding: it works perfect now, care to explain what happened here? | 23:54 |
| Thanos_b161 | ive got a little problem with alsa sound | 23:54 |
| vacho | tensorpudding: 1000x thank you's | 23:54 |
| fleshpike | tensorpudding : what about the mother board agp port or the graphic card? can i test them to? | 23:55 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: think of it this way | 23:55 |
| tensorpudding | fleshpike: if you have a spare AGP video card that you know is functional, you can test it | 23:55 |
| tensorpudding | fleshpike: if you use that card instead, and the problem persists, it's not the fault of your video card, otherwise it is the fault of the video card | 23:55 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: when you run ssh, it basically does a login on the remote machine | 23:56 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: the same as if you were at the console | 23:56 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: which starts the default user shell | 23:56 |
| fleshpike | tensorpudding : thanks | 23:56 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: for some reason, the default shell for users was set as /bin/sh, which is old and lacking in helpful features | 23:56 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: in OSX, the default shell is bash, and the default shell for your admin was presumably bash also | 23:57 |
| Thanos_b161 | my prob is that i can only hear sound from fron left and front right speakers but not from full 5.1 or optical | 23:57 |
| C1iFF | glx extension not working plz help! have tried lots of things but none work. | 23:57 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: chsh -s /bin/bash set the default shell to bash | 23:57 |
| vacho | ok thanks | 23:57 |
| vacho | w | 23:57 |
| vacho | it works perfect now thanks | 23:58 |
| Thanos_b161 | does anyone have any idea | 23:58 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: if you want to create other users, they will have sh by default still | 23:58 |
| tensorpudding | vacho: you should probably fix this | 23:58 |
| craigbass1976 | What do I need to do in order to fire up a terminal while my wife's logged into x, su - me and then start firefox? I used to do this years ago in fedora, couldn't once I switched over to dapper, and keep forgetting to find out why. | 23:59 |
| luxurymode | anyone have a recommendation for a text expander for ubuntu? | 23:59 |
| vacho | tensorpudding: ok thanks!! another question.. how do I use cp (copy files) and include hidden files. | 23:59 |
