[00:16] MERRY CHRISTMAS! === Animawolf is now known as Animagladius [03:47] psyco orea are you there [03:50] not working dvdr problem was for bios problem in bios it must be shown as master then ı was right :d hava a nice readings [04:42] HELP [04:42] kevin_, with? [04:42] I need advice [04:43] i am trying to mount a WD 320 gig external drive to my xubuntu. i was running it on windows vista [04:45] any ideas [04:45] put it in fstab? [05:24] good morning Xubuntu Technicians. [08:12] i have buntu 1004 installed via wubi. i am trying to use clamtk to scan my w7 OS but i cant see it [08:13] you mean [08:13] disk ? [08:13] i am wondering if bunti installed via wubi can act like a live cd to remove virus from an infected w7 os [08:14] buntu* [08:15] or do you have to use a live cd to remove virus from an infected w7 pc [08:15] don't know hpw wubi really so I don't really know [08:16] but what you trying is to see your hard disk from your xubuntu installation right ? [08:16] seems like i should be able to read w7 files from ubuntu regardless ....YES [08:16] YES [08:16] ok [08:16] exactly [08:16] can you do a fdisk -L [08:17] ? [08:17] to read files? [08:17] wait I should give you exact command [08:17] just to see if we can see your hard disk [08:17] i see ot 500gb y [08:17] i see it in the gui [08:17] sudo fdisk -l [08:17] ah [08:18] on xfce gui ? [08:18] just not sure how to scan it [08:18] so you sein it but can read it ? [08:18] when i use disk utility [08:18] are there a mounting point created ? [08:18] i see 500gb hd [08:19] ok but with something like thunar ? [08:19] well this one is ubuntu [08:19] so dolphin ? [08:19] what's your gui ? [08:19] dunno [08:19] 1004 lucid [08:19] ubuntu [08:20] lts [08:20] uh doesn't help [08:20] ill look [08:20] never mind so what do you use to see your file most of time ? [08:20] not quite familiar with ubuntu [08:20] dolphin should exist I think [08:21] i use system,admin,disk utility [08:21] or my home folder [08:22] i suq at buntu [08:22] lol nvm [08:22] so [08:22] yet i get around well [08:22] can't you see your hard drive [08:22] on /media ? [08:23] in terminal...is that wut u mean [08:23] on terminal or on your explorator since I don't know the yet [08:23] ill run that terminal [08:23] ill look [08:24] ls /media [08:25] does nuthing [08:25] ls -l maybe [08:25] can I see result of sudo fdisk -l ? [08:25] no if you got nothing mean there nothing on media [08:26] fdisk is 0 [08:26] just blinks at me [08:26] ls -l has lots of stuff [08:26] oh ? [08:27] desktop stuff [08:27] docs dloads [08:27] stuff like that [08:27] ah yeah well we getting far from the point [08:28] what you did is ls -l on your desktop folder [08:28] wich not interesting for us [08:28] see all wubi is just a file inside windows [08:28] so fdisk result is 0 ? [08:28] ah ye [08:28] just blinking curser [08:29] i am not infected [08:29] just wondered if ubuntu as wubi would be able to read an kill windows virus [08:29] hehe [08:30] i know how to do it with live cd [08:31] prolly noone knows or ever tried [08:31] prolly they tryed yet [08:31] they just use live cd to do surgery on windows [08:31] but as I said I don't know mush about wubi [08:31] seems like noone does [08:32] well yeah this could be faster [08:32] many say its not too good [08:32] but all you have to do is to mount your hard disk [08:32] on you wubi intallation [08:32] but will that mess it up [08:32] what I found strang is that you have no result for fdisk but maybe it's normal for a wubi install [08:32] is the mount reversable [08:32] yes it is [08:32] don't worry [08:33] ok i saw that option [08:33] ill try it [08:33] =) [08:33] i knew to scan i had to mount [08:33] here goes [08:33] brb w/ test results [08:37] ITS at /media/recovery [08:37] shows that when it hit mount...in the gui [08:38] i ll try to scan with clamtk now [08:38] what the size of this disk ? [08:38] you should check before scan [08:39] ooops its only 21gb [08:39] you should be able to look windows content too [08:39] see [08:39] its not it [08:39] its must be the ubuntu file at that size [08:39] cos my hd is 500gb [08:39] looking deeper... [08:39] would be something else [08:40] media are partition [08:40] not on the linux used now [08:40] its FAT [08:40] ITS MY RECOVERY PARTITION [08:40] ok [08:40] dangerous [08:40] yikes [08:41] you can unmount it if you want [08:41] now i know wut to do hehe...brb [08:42] ok its mounted at /host [08:42] and wont let me ck files cos its active [08:42] hmmm [08:42] size good ? [08:42] yup 479 gb [08:42] k it's probably ntfs the issue [08:43] i see the whole drive [08:43] you better mount it with a line like this [08:43] i havent tried clam yet there [08:43] /dev/sda3 /media/C ntfs-3g defaults,locale=fr_FR.utf8 0 0 [08:43] I know I abuse with this but I found it very strange that you got no result with fdisk -l [08:45] see the partition doent even show buntu at all [08:45] but did you used sudo before ? [08:45] it shows a small FAT [08:45] if not it's normal you got no result [08:45] MY RECOVERY [08:45] ABD 470 NTFS [08:45] ah nice [08:45] and 479 ntfs [08:45] no linux [08:45] what it's /dev/sda number ? [08:46] prolly cos its a windows file [08:46] yup this normal =) [08:46] your on a ntfs partition [08:46] /dev/sda/2 [08:46] so your line must be something like this [08:46] /dev/sda2 /media/C ntfs-3g defaults,locale=fr_FR.utf8 0 0 [08:47] k maybe you can skip locale=fr etc thing [08:50] says will not scan /dev [08:50] k so UBuxuBU your partition is mounted on /host [08:50] sorry [08:51] yes [08:51] can you see all your windows file ? [08:51] cos wubi really doesnt partition at all [08:51] yeah =) [08:51] there is no real linux partition [08:51] can you manipulate them as you want for your scan ? [08:52] trying [08:53] from what I understand you should [08:53] ah hah [08:53] there is an 18 gig loop [08:54] /dev/loop0 [08:54] can't you exculde it ? [08:54] it already was i just now mounted it for the heck of it [08:55] try some more stuff [08:57] ? you mount peripherical folder for a scan? [08:59] i think i just scannedeverything [08:59] i chose scan directory [08:59] chose file system [08:59] and it says i scanned about 860000 signatures [09:00] but if i did thats an awful fast scan [09:01] he may skip more if you give him a large amount to scan [09:01] idk how your scan engine works [09:03] hmmm when i scanned i saw the word registry fly by [09:03] linux has no registry [09:03] thats a windows term afaik [09:05] well wasn't windows file that you wanted to scan ? [09:06] yes [09:06] its an experiment to see if an already installed wubu can clean an infecte windows os [09:07] if so ppl would be prepared up front by having wubi in windows [09:07] unless it was so comprimised that u cant boot windows [09:08] but then u just di live buntu cd [09:08] do* [09:08] still not convinced i did it though [09:11] I see [09:12] cant scan 479gb in 5 seconds hehe [09:12] oh well ill keep foolin with it [09:14] they say u can install avast in ubuntu....hmmmm [09:14] maybe ill try that i know avast pretty well === xero is now known as Guest34193 [09:17] x86 only i am 64 [09:18] oh well live cd is sure thing anyway! [09:18] usb live [09:18] good too =) [09:19] even better prolly [10:02] i got it now [10:02] it works [10:02] clam is just really really bizarre [10:03] its prolly gonna take a couple hours to finish [10:04] I wan't to only use wlan connexion and disable ethernet, is uncommend /etc/network/interface the correct way to do it or should I do something else ? [10:08] system...prefernces...network connection i think [10:09] then configure it there [10:28] i think networkmanager expects that everyone want to use wire if they have it plugged [10:29] wlan autoconnecting isn't related to eth0, you just need to mark it so in "configure connections" orwhatitis [10:32] in where Sysi ? === gnomefreak76 is now known as gnomefreak [11:25] hi [14:23] how do i add a new font to the system? [14:46] scifi, copy to /usr/share/fonts and run 'fc-cache -f -v /usr/share/fonts' [14:46] scifi, ~/.fonts would work as well [14:46] well, pretty much any path, but... [14:48] seem to have managed to get it working copying it to usr/share/local/fonts i think it was [14:48] didnt have to run that terminal command [14:52] okay [14:55] 1 down vote favorite Share on Facebook Share on Twitter I am running Xubuntu. I was running headless fine before using tightVNC on windows and vino on Xubuntu. Now, after entering the password on the remote server, the unlock keyringdialog pops on the local server.. [14:55] How to disable it?? [16:07] hey [16:17] hello everybody [16:18] hello again [16:21] Good morning [16:22] how is everyone today? I'm snowed in [16:24] Enjoy it while it is there? [16:25] I'll try, I just really hate snow [16:26] it's not good if you have to drive a car but otherly nice [16:27] i wanna move to somewhere where's never -30°C [16:28] Its never that here [16:29] -20? [16:29] Isn't that cold? we don't get below about -15C here [16:29] got down to 10 F [16:29] -12C [16:30] heh, we are already up to 19 F [16:30] so you're living in warm places :P [16:30] -12C is so rare here anyway [16:30] its good weather most of the time [16:31] -12 is normal winter here [16:31] Oh, apparently, that's -7 C [16:31] fail [16:31] Sysi, where do you live? [16:33] finland [16:33] ahh, I'm in North Carolina, USA [16:36] i'll visit usa some day [16:37] its nice, some people are words I can't say on this channel, but most are nice [16:37] just stay off the interstates [16:38] I talked to my daughter in NC yesterday. It was warmer than here [16:38] were do you live? [16:38] Idaho, USA [16:39] i'd move to states but your social security sucks and afaik there's no too much jobs available atm [16:39] ok, nice to know when your talking about the weather [16:39] Sysi, yeah its probably best to wait for a litttle wile [16:39] climate, language or politics always suck [16:40] the world sucks, just some parts more than others [16:40] Canada has good medical, doesn't it? [16:40] I've heard good things [16:41] canada could be nice, but isn't it even colder than here? [16:41] I always thought either Netherlands or Sweden would be a nice place to live [16:41] Sysi: yes, it might be [16:41] or you could try mexico... [16:42] southern sweden could be nice [16:42] I having a strange issue with the Wastebasket [16:42] do tell [16:42] items seem to be getting stuck and I cant delete them [16:42] yes, that does seem to happen [16:42] ahh, just had a problem like that [16:43] 10.04 or 10.10? [16:43] is there a fix [16:43] 10.10 [16:43] open a terminal, and type empty-trash [16:43] thats one fix [16:44] empty-trash is not currently installed [16:44] install it [16:44] go into /home/USER/.local/share/Trash/files and manually remove them [16:45] thats another fix [16:45] You can also hold right-shift when hitting delete to not put files into Trash [16:45] or Wastebasket, too [16:46] :) [16:46] it work? [16:46] ty [16:46] You are welcome [16:46] yes I installed trash-cli [16:47] you delete it with empty-trash? [16:47] yeah [16:48] Natty warns me everytime that it can not delete some files in Trash, but then it deletes them anyway [16:48] yeah, I had a thing that I deleted as root, but couldn't empty root trash. and I had to enter root and do empty-trash [16:50] !info trash-cli [16:50] trash-cli (source: trash-cli): command line trashcan utility. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.10.r55-0ubuntu1 (maverick), package size 14 kB, installed size 140 kB [16:50] 140KB, not bad [16:52] I don't use the trash can anymore, I always just delete them [16:58] well i gotta go now, play some black ops. ttyl [16:59] crap, using a swap file you can't hibernate [16:59] oh well ttyl [17:55] ShootEmUp is correct. You must have a swap partition to hibernate, otherwise, you are trying to hibernate to the same disk partition you want to hibernate... [17:55] MorphixNW: were you asking about games on Ubuntu a while back? [17:56] yeah [17:56] wanted to get uplink working [17:57] You might be interested in http://www.ubuntugamer.com [17:58] hmmm interesting :) [17:58] thanks [17:59] no problem [18:07] I got some interesting news that you guys might like :) [18:07] a friend mother wants me to install xubuntu for her :P [18:08] didnt take much convincing, I am sure she will pick it just fine, just need to point out that "start" is now called "applications" :) [18:09] :-) [18:09] oh and also [18:09] I installed 10.04 on a friends laptop a while ago.....all worked just fine (even a 3g modem) but the sound wouldnt work [18:10] turn the controls on? [18:10] however, I gave my friend a 10.10 CD for him to install, which he has done and all is now working fine [18:10] I tried everything [18:10] :-) [18:10] but 10.10 has worked out the box yet again [18:10] that was a Fujitsu Almio blah blah [18:10] It just keeps getting better [18:11] well the laptop used to run Vista, badly I might add [18:11] but its runs xubuntu very well [18:11] its a dual core with 1gb ram [18:12] I am currently working to transform and original xbox into a xubuntu media-centre :) [18:13] xbox standard hardware isnt enough with 700mhz CPU and 64MB ram [18:13] so I have replaced the motherboard with a Mini-ATX [18:14] I will also replace the xbox game ports with standard USBS, I think it will make a slick media-centre that wont be out of place under the TV === nicofs_ is now known as nicofs [20:29] hello everyone [20:29] hi [20:29] anyone have problems? [20:30] not I :) unless you're running an ancient copy of xubuntu [20:30] true dat [20:31] or beta, what's offtopic [20:31] :P [20:31] Sysi, #xubuntu-offtopic [20:32] hum, i could [20:32] thats the offtopic channel [20:32] let me browse my channel list first.. [20:32] << 9.04 aka Jaunty Jackalope [20:32] Sysi, you're not there [20:32] 10.10! [20:33] The offtopic is just about empty [20:33] knome: i could test that by joining, i'm thinking where to put it [20:33] Sysi, 11 is a good choice [20:34] so, here is a problem for which I seem to have no answer... [20:34] hey i have query with girl on that [20:34] upgrade 8.04 to 10.04 [20:34] okay, whats the problem [20:34] after the restart, you can't do anything, the mouse moves, but no clicks activate anything [20:35] upgrading is hardly a clean process [20:35] not an answer [20:35] lol [20:35] I should be able to use the desktop that is there after the upgrade [20:35] hun, sounds like the mouse driver has changed [20:35] does the keyboard work? [20:36] It was usable before the upgrade... [20:36] I'd check xorg logs [20:36] Sysi: no, not to activate any apps or menu [20:36] psycho_oreos: and you would do that by ? when nothing works, [20:36] tty? [20:36] 1. mouse driver change, 2. your mouse broke, 3. mouse driver curroption [20:37] real hard to look in /var/log when it won't open [20:37] charlie-tca, I'd boot into single user mode first or rescue mode and then check the logs via console [20:37] ShootEmUp: then the keyboard should work [20:37] ctrl alt F1 doesn't work? [20:37] ahh, didn't catch that [20:37] Sysi: yes, it does [20:38] have you tried installing updates through that? and maybe reinstall xorg [20:38] and when I go back to alt+f7, I can't even shutdown [20:38] I don't know of any fixes, but it sounds like you need to reinstall [20:39] just my 2 cents [20:39] heh, don't want to. It worked before I upgraded. [20:39] lol [20:39] I don't think charlie-tca will accept that as answer.. lol thought s [20:39] so* [20:39] try rebooting about 5 times; you got to the tty... [20:39] then it worked [20:40] charlie-tca, maybe Xorg needs reinstalling. I think you can do it from live CD via chroot [20:41] I personally would get my hands dirty by getting a terminal/console and finding out the root of the problem [20:41] I rebooted several times, and it decided to work again, to be honest [20:42] I suspect its the xorg `autoprobe' guessing fails [20:42] me too [20:42] But I still want to know what locked it up... top showed about 10% of the cpu in use [20:42] again, pull up console and read the logs [20:42] and memory was fine [20:42] how do you read the logs? [20:43] you can use pager LOG in tty [20:43] q quits pager, space pages it one page at a time [20:44] ok thanks [20:44] `cat /var/log/xorg.0.log' for example [20:44] or less [20:44] or pager /var/log/xorg.0.log [20:44] there's many ways [20:45] you can also use vim or nano or ... [20:46] vi, emacs, pico, ed, more [20:46] etc.. [20:46] okay, I think I got it now [20:47] I guess there is more than one way to do it [20:47] a lot more [20:50] might also be a good idea to get xorg write a conf file when it doesn't work and maybe when it works again dump another conf file and do a diff on it [20:50] s/on\ it/on\ both/ === ^Phantom2^ is now known as ^Phantom^ [22:26] Hi [22:26] I have trouble installing Xubuntu, it cannot identify my hard drive [22:27] try different boot options [22:27]
