induzp_res, thats good to know...Thas why i was not allocating more memory to VB's gues OS00:00
induzguest00:00
BlaDe^shcherbak:  hmm remember you told me gnome-panel --replace ?00:00
ignarpsDarkStar1, I don't understand exactly what you mean by resolve to a subdomain on the chosen one00:00
p_resinduz: Yeah I generally don't run anything else whilst using a VM.00:00
BlaDe^that gave some assertation errors, when i closed terminal my applets all died again00:00
p_resOnly irc!00:00
goltoofinduz: check the requirements of the apps you want to run, not sure about mso but some require more memory00:00
kaddi_shcherbak: are those names identical to the ones of the packages? or would I have to match them to the package in question?00:00
avance0242Hey Guys, Do you know how to gain administrator access on a network with just a thin client?00:00
ignarpsDarkStar1, this is more of an architecture question then an ubuntu os one00:01
DarkStar1ignarps: basically each web app runs on it's own VM with it's own domain name. I need to consolidate them under one domain00:01
goltoofDarkStar1:  check  #httpd00:01
rumpe1BlaDe^,  use "gnome-panel --replace & disown"00:01
DarkStar1goltoof: I asked but got nowhere.00:01
usr_hello, anyone can tell me how can  I install pydev in eclipe on ubuntu 10.10. I have been reading some websites with suggestions but it seems that such info is not up to date00:01
goltoofDarkStar1:  why have a web app run on a VM??  sounds horrible00:02
induzgoltoof, thnaks for suggestions i will check before installing anything on Vbox00:02
DarkStar1goltoof: Well a virtual server.00:02
rumpe1BlaDe^, then you can close the terminal00:02
=== Hekos is now known as hekos
DarkStar1goltoof: but in any case it's an inherited problem which I have to manage pending redevelopment00:03
BlaDe^that worked and restored my originals, rumpe1  which is great00:03
BlaDe^but it also said: Unable to open desktop file /home/martin/Desktop/gnome-terminal.desktop for panel launcher: No such file or directory00:03
BlaDe^is that an issue?00:03
dosydoo1234tried winehq but not a friendly bunch in there, 120 people in the room and no one talks to each other00:03
=== charles is now known as Guest88582
ignarpsDarkStar1, there is multiple way to tackle that.  But that question is more of an overall design question. not about ubuntu OS00:04
dosydoo1234does anyone here have any experience with wine ?00:04
ryan_is there a way to zoom out the screen slightly on the Nvidia drivers? the bottom of my screen(taskbar) is almost hidden00:04
ignarpsDarkStar1, modproxy mod jk are used for java web apps.  You could look down that route00:04
ryan_the proprietary ones i mean not nouveau00:04
shcherbakkaddi_: and this /var/lib/dpkg/status00:04
ks07ryan, cant you adjust monitor settings (like the physical monitor buttons)?00:05
rumpe1BlaDe^, doesnt sound dramatic00:05
shcherbakkaddi_: scroll down to ready script http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=135684100:05
DarkStar1ignarps: Ye I know. but I need an opinion as to a way of quickly resolving this. It was suggested that I use apache to re-direct to the right servers, but anther person said that was overly complicated00:05
p_resinduz: Where is your install up to?00:05
GravCan anyone who used minitube tell me if time slider should work with it?00:05
ignarpsDarkStar1, mod rewrite is pretty easy to use in apache if that is all you need00:05
luxurymodeanyone know if theres a way to have a different wallpaper on each of my monitors?00:05
alanmHi all, does anyone know what I cant start urbanterror on my pc when it gives following error "Initializing OpenGL display00:06
DarkStar1ignarps: but do you know if having the providers configure their DNS server to resolve the naming on our behalf would be easier?00:06
alanm...setting mode 3: 640 48000:06
alanmSDL_SetVideoMode failed: Couldn't find matching GLX visual00:06
trenchluxurymode: everything is posible in linux00:06
naiadanyone know if there is an easy way to get tiling plugin installed on ubunt 10.10 for compiz?00:06
alanmhowever, other 3d games work without problem (tremulous)00:06
trenchluxurymode: the sky is the limit :P00:06
KM0201luxurymode: only way i could do figure out how to do it, is create an image that has the two wallpapers i want side by side, and use that "one image".. for my wallpaper00:06
kleopatrawell netstat -tulp gives me the pid so i could kick it but is there no other way? i know what application is running (gearman) but im looking for something like gearman stop00:06
ignarpsDarkStar1, again I don't know the exact issue and what the needs are.  Is it easier to do etc... is all relative.  What is easy for me may not be easy for someone else00:07
luxurymodeKM0201: cool. yeah i want cheat sheets as my wallpaper ;)00:07
RealOptyola00:07
DarkStar1ignarps: I only started reading about Apache today. Never had to use it before. but can you give me a quick brief of what that mod does??00:07
KM0201luxurymode: :)00:07
RealOptyi wanna make backups of my dvd collection00:07
ryan_ks07: i can't really alter the screen physically by very much00:07
kaddi_shcherbak: awesome! Thanks! :)00:07
RealOptyany suggestions on this?00:07
p_resRealOpty: k9copy.00:07
luxurymodeKM0201: what should i install that'll let me edit images, etc? need to make these two jpgs one image..00:07
DarkStar1ignarps: mind if I explain it to yo in private chat?00:07
luxurymodeKM0201: gimp?00:07
KM0201luxurymode: it was actually pretty easy, just make sure you make the "width" the same resolution as the width of the two displays00:08
hariykeyboardwhich should I backup. /usr or /var?  which ones more important?00:08
RealOptyp_res, some reason it keeps crashing on me when i start it up00:08
ignarpsDarkStar1, not sure I want to go down the road of PM support in a channel with 1400 people00:08
ks07ryan_: I dont know then, I dont see anything to do it in nvidia settings here :S00:08
p_resRealOpty: Or AcidRip00:08
ignarpsDarkStar1, I do have a real job too :)00:08
p_res.00:08
KM0201luxurymode: yeah, i used gimp, then created a new image(25xx by 1024)... then copy/pasted the images i wanted, into that image, and moved them into place..00:08
DarkStar1ignarps: I just need your opinion dude. For that I need you to understand the problem00:08
shcherbakkaddi_: Now I will spend some time to getting more familiar with apt, such incompetence of mine.00:08
KM0201luxurymode: you do it right, you won't even be able to tell.00:08
ignarpsDarkStar1, okay you can pm me and I will see00:09
DarkStar1ignarps: but I understand00:09
RealOptyp_res, that one always errors :(00:09
p_resRealOpty: Then you have other issues.00:09
RealOptythats what she said00:09
ignarpsI am mainly here to give back to ubuntu a bit. seeing I use them so much00:09
p_resI use AcidRip personally, with no dramas.00:09
RealOptywanna pastebin ur config?00:10
kaddi_shcherbak: I think I'll have to do the chroot thing too, just to know what happens once you do it.. :) Thanks for the many alternatives though :)00:10
p_resRealOpty: What config? Just installed it and run it.00:10
ryan_ks07: yeah it's weird because when i was using an ATi card you could sort of move the screen about in Catalyst.00:10

nsdI have a machine with Ubuntu 10.04.1 server that the framebuffer quit working (using the RCA out jack from the video card) when I tried to set up a minimalist X desktop, specifically after trying to install the NVIDIA driver (the card is a GeForce 4 MX). I tried disabling the driver over ssh using jockey-text (I installed it with jockey-gtk) but I still get nothing on the display. Looking in dmesg I saw some messages from vga16fb where it trie00:16
nsdd to initialized but quit, so I blacklisted the module, and now I see only uvesafb messing with the framebuffer. Currently, the only thing that works is plymouth: when the machine gets to where the console would appear, the screen merely flickers and turns black, with a dark maroon border.00:16
trenchyxz97: you can always play with gparted live cd00:16
Gnealuxurymode: if all else fails, click on 'file'00:16
KM0201luxurymode: lol00:16
yxz97Yeah but its inside a virtual machine00:16
yxz97I should need first grow the size of the virtual disk and later, grow the size "internally" ..00:16
KM0201luxurymode: if you do it right, it will look like this(but yours won't, cuz your displays have two different resolutions00:17

pmocekHow should I troubleshoot corruption in my ecryptfs filesystem?  On Ubuntu 10.4, I set up encrypted home dir with auto-mount upon login using the Ubuntu i386 alt installer.  No problem for months of heavy usage, then misc errors led me to find corrupted gconfd configuration files (control characters strewn about) and kernel error messages (samples at <http://paste.ubuntu.com/551314/>).  These messages are logged when I read from the filesystem (only some p00:24
pmocekarts) but are not logged when I'm not accessing the filesystem.  I've tried booting into an older kernel (I'm using 2.6.32-27), booting from a 10.10 live disc  & mounting the encrypted fs, skimmed the ecryptfs FAQ, searched the Web for the error messages & relevant keywords, mailed the ecryptfs-users list, and mailed a local Linux users list.00:24

ubottudogmeat: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD00:27
razieliyoby the way, I didn't know versions meant that00:27

cp2_4evaWhats up all.  I have a question about installing ubuntu as a dualboot with windows. I already installed windows and made extra partitions. (ext2, ext3 for other Linux distros) it's now asking me to specify a root file system. How do I do that particularly? I'm a newb sorry00:30
w1n5ton0An instance of nm-applet is already running00:30
induzKM0201, I have alreday installed Xp as gues00:30
razieliyow1n5ton0, you're f*ckd00:30
ignarpsDarkStar1, you are welcome.  Glad I could give back to the community00:30
DarkStar1cp2_4eva: it's basically asking you to specify where you want your C:\ drive00:30
w1n5ton0I'm trying to fix nautilus00:30
rwww1n5ton0: Again, your issue is not supported in this channel. The correct answer to your question as far as we're concerned is "don't log in as root then".00:30
KM0201induz: i understand that.. you have to install guest additions on the guest, in order to increase the screen size00:31
w1n5ton0I can't log in as anyone BUT root00:31
razieliyow1n5ton0, what happens to your nautilus?00:31
rwww1n5ton0: Why?00:31
razieliyolol00:31
w1n5ton0It says cannot find .nautilus or something00:31
w1n5ton0lemme check again00:31
induzKM0201, How can i get that?00:31
DarkStar1cp2_4eva: Oh filesystem... it's asking you to choose the format of your filesystem... so chose either ext3 or 400:31
razieliyosudo aptitude install nautilus?00:31
KM0201induz: do you have XP open now?00:31
w1n5ton0I try to log in an get the following:00:32
kaddi_shcherbak: could I take up your time one more time? I'm going through the chroot steps now, just so I've done it once. And everything works fine until I try to write the output to a file. Then it tells me it's a read-only file system and stops. Do you have an idea what the issue might be?00:32
induzyes00:32
induzKM0201, yes Xp is running on Vb00:32
KM0201induz: go to .. i think its devices menu/install guest additions... if its not the devices menu, its one of the menus00:32
w1n5ton0Could not update ICEauthority file /home/user/.ICEauthority00:32
tekkhey guys, i've recently build both vlc and ffmpeg from source just how I like them, is there an easy way now to create a .deb of them that will also pack together all of the dependencies?00:33
induzKM0201, I have installed guest addition now what?/00:34
razieliyow1n5ton0, maybe you're not the owner of that file00:34
w1n5ton0Then is says There is a problem with the configuration server. (/usr/lib/libconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256)00:34
KM0201induz: after it installs, reboot the guest... then adjust your window size, click machine, and "adjust window size"00:34
KM0201induz: but make sure it installs.00:34
rwww1n5ton0: See the second and third posts in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=94975000:34
razieliyothat should be common issues00:35
w1n5ton0And finally: Nautilus could not create the following required folders:/home/user/Desktop, /home/user/.nautilus00:35
induzKM0201, I adjusted window size to full screen but still Xp is a bit smaller and lots of space is free on sides00:35
KM0201induz: did you listen to a word i said?00:35
rwww1n5ton0: ah. did you run "sudo nautilus" or "sudo startx" at some point? that's what usually causes that much permissions mess.00:36
w1n5ton0Before running Nautilus, please create these folders, or set permissions such that Nautilus can create them.00:36

w1n5ton0SUCCESS00:47
ignarpspotiphera, first step would be to boot of a rescue cd00:47
barf_barfhow can i clone an sd card into an img?00:47
razieliyow1n5ton0, congratulations hahaha00:47
w1n5ton0Thank you thank you00:47
potipheraignarps, what do you mean by a rescue CD?  I am using a live CD right now.00:47
ignarpsbarf_barf, use dd00:47
razieliyobarf_barf, or mkisofs?00:47
ignarpspotiphera, sorry I have not used enrypted volumes with grub00:48

CaneToadI have an Imation Disk Stakka, and when I plug it into 2.6.35-23 box, while it remains plugged in I get reported over and over in dmesg:  usb 2-5.2: new low speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 13, usb 2-5.2: USB disconnect, address 13, and then it goes to address 13, 14, 15 and so on, never stops....any way to solve this?00:49
induzwhy my USB drive is not getting recog on Vbox with Xp as guest00:49
razieliyonot complicated00:49
potipheraI think the problem may be caused by having several different kernels installed, like the preempt00:50
aeon-ltdintrader: good luck i suppose00:50
potipheraand I am open to removing them all except for the generic, if I can find out how to do that from a live CD.00:50
Scuniziinduz: vbox support for usb is only available in the PUL version on their site with the additional package listed there.. even then you'll have to read the docs to get your user to access that feature.. not hard though.00:51
induzScunizi, what is PUL version??00:51
ignarpspotiphera, you should be able to have as many kernels as you like.  Do you have your filesystem mounted from the live cd?00:52
potipheraignarp, not at the moment, but I can mount it, just a minute.00:52
ignarpspotiphera, I don't think having too many kernels is the issue.  but once mounted you can do this.  chroot /mnt00:53
ignarpspotiphera, you can then run commands like the system was booted up normally.  ie use apt-get to add/remove stuff00:53
Scuniziinduz: the one direct from their site00:53
potipheraYeah, I was able to get that far the other day00:55
potipheraand I tried update-grub, reinstalling GRUB, and update-initramfs00:55
breadcrumbcan you connect to and control Ubuntu remotely with the Windows RDP client? or do you have to use something like ultravnc?00:55
potipherabut none of those worked.00:55
ignarpsbreadcrumb, you have to use something like vnc00:58
roccity_potiphera, are you trying to reinstall grub from a live cd?00:58
PsPhaKeR1I have another question :)00:58
potipheraThe problem occurred previously after a kernel update, and what seemed to cause it was that GRUB still had the old kernel selected as the default, so I just selected a different kernel in the menu, and then used startupmanager to change the default, but now I can't enter the GRUB menu when starting because of an error saying "udevadm trigger is not permitted while udev is unconfigured."00:59
PsPhaKeR1When I try and launch an executable... it says "There is no application installed for executable files" It is not an Windows executable btw00:59
potipheraroccity_, yeah, I might be, if that is what will work00:59
potipheraalthough I did reinstall GRUB already after a chroot to my encrypted filesystem (mounted with exactly the same hexadecimal name as it is given in GRUB normally), and that didn't work.01:00
roccity_potiphera, how many partitions do you have?01:00
PsPhaKeR1When I try and launch an executable... it says "There is no  application installed for executable files" It is not an  Windows executable btw01:01
PsPhaKeR1oops01:01

potipheraroccity_, on that hard drive there are three listed.01:01
PsPhaKeR1What application do I install for executable files?01:02
potipheraOne is the boot partition, one is the encrypted partition (which takes up most of the hard drive), and the other has the same size as the encrypted partition?01:02
induzScunizi, I am on thier website vb.org but i dont see any updates for me01:02

potipheraroccity_, I followed the instructions for reinstalling Grub through chroot yesterday, and the only difference is that I didn't mount the other partition besides the boot and the encrypted root partition (I am not sure what the purpose of that one is, or where I should be mounting it to)01:09

Ograws@Everyone: Help me with an Ubuntu install01:58
RogueboyHello, I recently installed Ubuntu and am having difficulties with my wireless connection, says I'm connected no pages load and Im using WPA01:58
cntrationalrazieliyo: yes, there is no system beep. >_>01:58
razieliyocntrational, you can find beep program on repositories01:59
ubuntu4shaneOgraws: if you state the question/problem, someone who knows will probably respond01:59
razieliyocntrational, sudo aptitude install beep01:59
Ograws@RougeBoy: OMG I'm experiencing the same problems01:59
cntrationalrazieliyo: yeah, already installed01:59
MyrttiOgraws: it would actually help us to help you if you'd really tell more about the problems you've got01:59
razieliyocntrational, so...01:59
cntrationalyes, how do I use it with the terminal? >_>01:59
Ograws@Myrtti: I have sda know what they are?01:59

razieliyocntrational, it seems it doesn't work for me too02:01
Braber0102:01
cntrationalrazieliyo: oh02:01
ubuntu4shaneecinx: are you in KDE?  You should be able to open the document with okular and hit file print02:01
razieliyocntrational, beep -f 300 -l 1000002:01
ecinxyes i'm on kde, it doesn't work with okular02:01
cntrationaloh, that works02:01
MyrttiOgraws: address your questions to the whole channel and someone will answer. I'm going to bed. Nitenite sweeties02:01
ubuntu4shane!who | ecinx02:01
ubottuecinx: 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 :)02:01
cntrationalrazieliyo: but how do I use it with the terminal?02:02
Ograws@Myrtti: Okay good nite02:02
ubuntu4shaneecinx: can you be a little more specific about what doesn't work on okular?02:02
razieliyobeep -f frequency -l time02:02
cntrationalyeah02:02
razieliyoany  more questions, man beep02:02
ubuntu4shaneecinx: also you may find a little more help at #kubuntu as they are they kde pros02:02
Braber01trisim, thanks but that still doesn't fix my problem about how ---- wait is it because i'm using 10.04 netbook edtion?02:02
ecinxubuntu4shane:  i hit file and print02:02
Ograws@Everyone: Why isn't the option to ''install side by side'' not there while installing ubuntu?02:03
Rogueboyis anyone able to assist me; I'm having difficulty with my wireless, says I'm connected but no pages load02:03
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: What is your other OS?02:03
ubuntu4shaneecinx: and what happens?  it send to the printer? or nothing?  is there anything in the printer queue?02:03
cntrationalrazieliyo: I mean, how do I use it as the terminal bell and make it beep when someone hilights me on irssi02:03
Ograws@Dark_Spyro_003: Windows 702:03
ecinxubuntu4shane: nothing on printque or anything02:03
cntrationalrazieliyo: sorry if I wasn't clear02:03
andyman99008Rogueboy: have you entered the correct DNS?02:03
razieliyocntrational, you were, but I really don't know how to do that, sorry!02:03
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: Using the 10.10 liveCD ?02:04
ecinxubuntu4shane:  I see all my jobs that successfuly printed02:04
cntrationalrazieliyo: oh, okay02:04
trismBraber01: I've never used the netbook edition, couldn't say.02:04
Rogueboy@anyman99008 it was autofind02:04
razieliyocntrational, did you google?02:04
ubuntu4shaneecinx: when you hit file -> print  do you select the printer?  There should be a box to specify what printer you are printing to.02:04
Ograws@Dark_Spyro_003: Yes 10.1002:04
ecinxubuntu4shane: it's at the correct printer by default02:04
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: Well I wouldn't have a clue, installed it here yesterday side-by-side with my Windows 7. Is Windows' Bootmg on the same partition as the installation?02:05
Dark_Spyro_003Bootmgr*02:05
ubuntu4shaneecinx: hmm, that is odd, I would check in #kubuntu  I've been tinkering with KDE, but I'm by no means a kde expert, that should print though, mind does.02:05
ubuntu4shaneecinx: and I have a default install, nothing super fancy.02:05
Ograws@Dark_Spyro_003: Don't think so I am trying to install Ubuntu on E:02:05
kovid_DasEi, i finally got that VNC over SSH working using the default remote desktop in ubuntu. looks like i just needed to create a tunnel in putty on windows. thanks!02:05
ubuntu4shaneecinx: type: /join #kubuntu           to get to the kubuntu channel02:05
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: Have you tried to configure the partitioning yourself? (advanced)02:06
ecinxubuntu4shane: I already asked there no one active knows02:06
DasEikovid  nice to hear02:06
razieliyoOgraws, it's not as hard as it should sound02:06
Ograws@Dark_Spyro_003: Don't know how to do that you mind walking me through plz?02:06
ubuntu4shaneecinx: I guess if I had clicked over there I would have figured that out! :)02:06
trismBraber01: you should be able to just select latin/hiragana/katakana from the floating language bar, or configure hotkeys with /usr/lib/ibus-anthy/ibus-setup-anthy02:07
ecinxubuntu4shane: that's okay02:07
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: Your E: disk is a blank partition or free space, right?02:07
Ograws@razieliyo: I am trying to delete E: and make it C; so that Windows and Ubuntu is side by side02:07
glimaanyone know how to call the login manager setting dialog by hand again?02:07
Rogueboy@anyman9908 so I'm in the network area, do I go to create new wireless Network? or can I just select mine that's already found?02:07
Ograws@Dark_Spyro_003: It has nothing in it and no I havn't made it free space02:07
ubuntu4shaneecinx: sorry, wish I could be of more help, just don't know that much about KDE,  you can install adobe acrobat reader if you would like and then print pdf02:07
ubuntu4shaneecinx: also pdf files can be printed with command line using: lpr file.pdf02:08
ubuntu4shaneecinx: I'm 99% sure that automagically prints on default printer02:08
dogmeatmust iptables be enabled (/etc/init.d/iptables start) somewhere, or can i just write rules and they work?02:08
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: You could just shrink the E: partition by 1GB, use that as swap, then set the E: itself as the system disk (/) and use a filesystem like ext4 on it, if you mean to install ubuntu onto the E: drive that is02:09
razieliyoOgraws, forget about letters when you're in linux02:09
ecinxubuntu4shane:  i noticed in kate i put print pages 1-2 and it prints all02:09
Ograws@Dark_Spyro_002: Sounds hard to do is it done on Windows or during installing Ubuntu?02:09
ubuntu4shaneecinx: sounds like perhaps the printer needs a different driver, what type of printer is it?02:10
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: You can do this during linux installation and it is really straightforward. Do you by any chance have a laptop with you to keep contact if you need help?02:10
=== RobotCow is now known as squashed|bug
Ograws@razieliyo: What do I call them then?02:10
Braber01I just found out about a bug in anthy (m17) apperently I can use the function keys to switch to Katkana but it's not working :(02:10
ecinxthe driver din't match02:10
ecinxit's brother 4040CDN02:10
ubuntu4shaneecinx: hmm, you probably need to re-setup the printer then02:10
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: The hard drives get names like sda and sdb, and the partitions on their turn would be sda1, sda2, sdb1, sdb2, ...02:10
OgrawsNo I have an iMac and my PC is upstairs02:10
razieliyoOgraws, well, linux uses just a root filesystem02:11
=== mpm is now known as pearlbear
razieliyoyou can make partitions for each directory in the filesystem02:11
ubuntu4shaneecinx: I'm also not very familiar with Brother printers, I only do HP, as they opened their drivers to Linux, or released them or something like that02:11
razieliyofor example, home, usr, etc02:11
Ograws@razielyo: Which one do i choose ''/'' ''/home''?02:11
ecinxHP's home printers suck02:11
razieliyoOgraws, now that you're starting, choose /02:12
razieliyowhen it asks you about mounting point02:12
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: you'd put the / on the partition you want to install the ubuntu system on02:12
razieliyothen, you should be watching your windows partition02:12
Ograws@razieliyo: Yeah thats what it says over those options, thanks Dark_Spyro_00302:12
ecinxtheir business line may be another story though02:12
razieliyoyou can select a mounting point to mount your windows partition02:12
Phong_hi guys, does anyone know if there is yahoo messenger for ubuntu?02:13
Ograws@Dark_Spyro_003: Which sda is windows I have 4?02:13
razieliyofor example, /windows or /media/windows or /mnt/windows or whatever you want02:13
Josesordor00t4rd3d, thanks :D02:13
trismBraber01: that could be your problem, I don't use the m17n anthy02:13
Phong_i want to use yahoo msg for ubuntu, does anyone know how?02:13
Ograws@razieilyo: I see /dos02:13
glimadoes anyone know how to call the login manager setting dialog by hand again?02:13
razieliyoOgraws, that should work02:13
ubuntu4shanePhong_: either empathy or pidgin will work with yahoo02:13
rumpe1Phong_, does it have to be yahoo-msg?02:13
Ograws@Dark_Spyro_003: I mean which one would be E:02:14
Braber01trism: the regular anthy wan't an option for me...02:14
razieliyoOgraws, do you see any NTFS partition?02:14
trismBraber01: did you install the Japanese input methods in System/Administration/Language Support?02:14
razieliyothat is your windows partition02:14
razieliyoif you have more partitions, they maybe ntfs too02:14
Ograws@razieliyo: Yes all 4 SDAs are in NTFS format02:14

Braber01trism: no i did not could you walk me through that in a PM please?02:15
=== Guest72107 is now known as jaboc
razieliyoso, Ograws, you have 4 win partitions?02:15
ubuntu4shanePhong_: in either you will need to setup your account and then put in the username and password, pretty easy, I use it regularly02:15
Ograws@razieliyo: lol yes how do I change that?02:15
razieliyohahaha02:15
Phong_ubuntu4shane, is it trustful with empathy?02:15
razieliyowell, do you really want to delete them?02:15
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws : The only way I know to figure it out is to look at the sizes of the different partitions, if they're not the same size02:15
Ograws@razieliyo: No well maybe to of them that are called :D and have less than 1Gb of memory in them02:16
=== Huang is now known as GodKiller

razieliyoOgraws, delete them all02:16
=== jacob__ is now known as jaboc
razieliyoOgraws, anyway, if you want to use windows and ubuntu, I think you should install windows first02:16
Ograws@raziliyo: All partitons? Even C: with Windows02:16
trismBraber01: it is really simple, just run System/Administration/Language Support, click Install/Remove Languages, scroll down to Japanese, and check all the boxes (Translations, Input Methods, Extra Fonts), and click apply02:17
razieliyowell, if you have already installed windows, you don't have to02:17
xio2is anybody else having issues connecting to aim with empathy? I'm on ubuntu 10.04 and get "disconnected authentication failed."02:17
razieliyoyou can identify your windows partition by the size02:17
razieliyodo you remember how much size had your win partition?02:17
Braber01trism: thank you now the thins isn't responding, I wasted to much time playing final fantasy, Tatics Advanced today :(02:17
Ograws@razieliyo: about 40Gb out of 80Gb (the rest is for ubuntu and some for free space)02:18
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: I'd say to abort ubuntu installation, then look at the different partition sizes and note them down in windows, then start the ubuntu install again and by the size you can tell which drive letter is which partition02:18
trismBraber01: after that in System/Preferences/Ibus Preferences, on the Input Method tab, there should be a new Anthy option with a crown next to it02:18
Ograws@Dark_Spyro_003: I thought u were gone! SDA 3 is the same size as my E: where i wanna put linux on02:18
razieliyowell, I'm leaving02:19
razieliyogood nite02:19
razieliyobye!02:19
Ograws@razieliyo: BYE Thanks for the help02:19
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: you should put all other partitions to "unused" and then put SDA3 to format to ext4 and mount it to /    -   then you might want to use one or both of the very small (less than 1GB) partitions and use them as "SWAP"02:19
theLEdoes anyone know why GtkEntryCompletion doesn't work when I use gtk_entry_set_text(...) to set the Entry's text? I'm trying to begin pre-population and suggestion listing for the user and I can't seem to get it to work.02:19
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: And sorry for my late reply =P02:19
Ograws@Dark-Spyro_003: What is SWAP for?02:20
Ograws@Dark_Spyro_003: Its okay ;-)02:20
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: it's like the windows swapfile on disk02:20
DasEi!swap | Ograws02:20
ubottuOgraws: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info02:20
Ograws@Dark_Spyro_003: Don't even know what swapfile is lol mor einfo plz02:20
Dark_Spyro_003Ograws: Virtual RAM space on the hard drive02:21
OgrawsI have to go bye02:21
trismBraber01: if it really isn't responding, you might just need to: sudo apt-get install ibus-anthy, the m17n anthy is probably part of ibus-m17n02:21

Dark_Spyro_003barf_barf: You don't02:31
rwwbarf_barf: you can't. FAT32 filesystems aren't capable of holding files greater than 4GB.02:31
rwwbarf_barf: You could try the 'split' command to split one into several under-4GB files, but that might get messy.02:31
barf_barfrww: can i move the file in parts and re-assemble on the fat 32 part ?02:32
jacob__nope02:32
Dark_Spyro_003barf_barf: Alternatively you can format the filesystem to one that does hold files that large02:32
rwwbarf_barf: no, because then the reassembled file would be over 4GB, and you can't have files over 4GB...02:32

ubottucraigbass1976: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)02:46
DasEicraigbass1976: both works , its a uuid02:46
rwwcraigbass1976: (you can still use /dev/sdxn notation if you'd like)02:46
Chottislipinski: What kind of mouse is it? USB? Bluetooth?02:46
TMN_Dark_Spyro_003: yes. there is no setting in the bios02:46
bearblacki need to re add teh panel objects from default install02:46
DasEicraigbass1976: sudo blkid for a list02:47
Chottislipinski: Have you tried a different mouse?02:47
craigbass1976DasEi, do I even want to know the rationale?  Is this something legit, or another one of those "buttons on the left" things.  ;)02:47
Dark_Spyro_003TMN_: do you get any image using the dedicated card?02:47
DasEicraigbass1976: that strings nowadays stand for the old /dev/whatever02:47
swazzythose ubuntu have any media player like real player that lets you click and down load videos?02:47
rtdoswhat is gnome shell 2.31.5 ? is it the gnome desktop or something else ?02:47
TMN_Dark_Spyro_003: i'm not sure what you mean. could you clarify?02:47
lipinskiActually, I think I may have just solved the problem.  I had a USB headset connected.  Once I disconnected it, Mr. mouse started working again.  Still odd, I have been using this headset for a while now...  Maybe today was the first time since Meerkat upgrade, though02:48
DasEicraigbass1976: it is, as a unique identifier is found, even if you swap drives,  a /dev/.. won't do it there02:48
TMN_Dark_Spyro_003: it seems to me like onboard one is doing the work in ubuntu02:48
Random832craigbass1976: because scsi [and sata/usb] connections don't have the letter hardcoded by how they are plugged in, the letter part of /dev/sdxn might change02:48
Random832craigbass1976: the uuid is stable02:48
bearblackaccording to the help i need to re add my main menu bar correct?>02:48
Dark_Spyro_003TMN_ is your computer screen plugged into the VGA/DVI/other port of the onboard card or of the dedicated card?02:48
lipinskiDasEi: Isn't the UUID more like a MAC - unique to that piece of HW?  So, more reliable than /dev/sdX as that could potentially move around on boot.02:49
Chottislipinksi: Glad to hear it. I was running out of ideas...02:49
Random832lipinski: it's actually set when you format the drive - more like the serial number on windows02:49
DasEiYupp, just said so ^02:49
TMN_Dark_Spyro_003: oh it's a laptop, so... vga output seems to work but i haven't tried the hdmi one02:49
Random832[in fact, for FAT/NTFS partitions, the serial number is used instead of a uuid, though it's still called UUID=foo]02:49
craigbass1976DasEi, so this: UUID="4A80FF4380FF3453" /bigdrive       ntfs    errors=remount-ro 0       1                 should work?02:49
TMN_not sure which one is which!02:49
lipinskiChottis: appreciate the help....02:49
Dark_Spyro_003TMN_ : Sorry, I'm not familiar with how the switching between graphics cards in laptops work.02:50
DasEicraigbass1976: yess, but don't forget the options (aka user,exe or desired)02:50
bearblackWhat is the command to give me back my main menu bar with all the stuff from install?02:50
TMN_Dark_Spyro_003: I see. thanks anyway02:50
Random832so does linux still not have user mapping for ntfs?02:50
bonjoyee!panelreset | bearblack02:50
ubottubearblack: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel »02:50
Random832or permission mappign for that matter, ntfs has exec permission bits02:50
DasEiRandom832: user mapping ? attributes are not ntfs02:51
Random832DasEi: by 'user mapping' i meant so that the windows account is used as the owner for whatever linux account02:51
Random832ntfs _has_ owners and permissions02:51
DasEiRandom832: no, the linux-way is still not found on ntfs02:51
bearblackbonjoyee, i did as you said and now i have no panels visible?02:52
bonjoyeebearblack: try logging out and login again02:53
DasEiRandom832: you can set permissions on the dir you mount an ntfs to, but files on ntfs won't hold the linux ermissions02:53
bearblackcommand for that is?02:53

asfHello everyone04:55
mabby1000hi04:55
AtomosI was confident enough in my ability to stick linux on it that I killed windows04:56
izinucsIvoz: did you do a full update after the upgrade? sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade04:56
rusiviAtomos: Patronizing question, did you md5sum the iso you burned to CD/USB before you installed Ubuntu on your netbook?04:56
nit-witAtomos, how experienced are you with linux.:)04:56
r00t4rd3d_SKiTZO, http://mulchman.org/blog/?p=21  scroll down and look at his xorg.conf  , I think you need to add another monitor in "Server Layout"04:56

Atomosive ran linux for like ten years04:57

turned1111atomosL can it boot from anything04:58
Atomosno, I forgot to checksum it but I got it from the ubuntu site and never had an issue doing so before04:58
r00t4rd3dmaybe someone else can look and know more about04:58
izinucsIvoz: I'd search the www.ubuntuforums.org for possible answers first.04:58
Ivozizinucs: yeah, what to search for04:58
Atomosit will boot the stick but then it will not actually run it04:58
izinucsIvoz: or "10.10 upgrade borked nautilus" :)04:58
rusiviAtomos: Despite your downloading direct from Ubuntu website, it's still a good idea to md5sum it just to rule out the obvious/simple :D04:58

mobius2Ivoz,  in my own experience the Ubuntu installer is quite efficient,  I do not run anything beyond windows xp,  and even that's done in emulation....  but I would be surprised if the windows 7 boot loader was much different from the xp one05:27
ZykoticK9luxurymode, it is if you want to use whatever PPA is missing the key05:27
luxurymodeZykoticK9: right so only affects PPA05:27
mobius2Ivoz,  I say so because we were discussing the installing of windows post hoc *nix05:27
Goliathhey05:28
ZykoticK9luxurymode, correct - apt should work fine, except for that particular PPA05:28
Goliathhow can i connect with ssh to a server and use a password?05:28
luxurymodeZykoticK9: thanks. dont even know why i have that05:28
mobius2Goliath,   putty!05:28
luxurymodeZykoticK9: how do i just remove the package?05:28
Goliathmobius2: no putty05:28
Goliathjust ssh05:28
edbianGoliath: in a term: ssh user@computer05:28
Goliathwhats the option for password05:28
Ivozmobius2: latest 10.10 installer confused me more than others I think. But one of its default options ended up working fine... didn't even mess up the two-step loader for my 'version' of windows ;)05:28
Goliathedbian: what if this needs a password for login05:28
edbianGoliath: The password thing is a setting on the server.05:28
mobius2hehe05:29
Goliathedbian: how do i tell it which password to use?05:29
ZykoticK9luxurymode, it's not a package issue - it's a PPA issue - either remove the PPA or add it's key, or add it correctly next time.05:29
mobius2the very nature of SSL means that typed passwords are not needed05:29
KM0201luxurymode: what is that ppa for?05:29
mobius2it's certificate based05:29

Scunizinit-wit: izinucs = scunizi I'm on my kubuntu machine now.. here's the paste..http://pastebin.ca/204007905:29
edbianGoliath: That's not something you choose. The server either requires password or RSA keys05:30
nit-witScunizi, paste it agian the link isn't working05:30
edbianGoliath: It should ask you for the password when you try to log in05:30
Ivozanyone have any idea why nautilius' theme/icons seems to have shat itself after I updated ubuntu?05:30

Scunizinit-wit: http://pastebin.ca/204007905:30
eossin windows its backspace05:30
edbianGoliath: You're logging in to a user name that's on the server.  So you have to know a user and password on that server to log into it via ssh05:30

KM0201luxurymode: well then i would just remove it from my soruce list and uninstall it05:31
Ivozmichael9196: yes, because it won't recognise the ext4 filesystem05:31
KM0201luxurymode: but you can probably look at your source list, and figure out what it is.05:31
luxurymodeopen source.list and remove?05:31
KM0201luxurymode: unless you want a GUI to do it...05:31
luxurymodehow do i pull up the list again?05:32
nit-witSchoentoon, thanks I typed it hold on05:32
KM0201luxurymode: right click your menu, click edit menu, go down to "administration" highlight it on the left... on the right, put a check next to Software sources05:32
KM0201luxurymode: then close the menu editor, and go to sys/admin/software sources05:32
nit-witScunizi, last message was for you above05:32
luxurymodei mean just text of list from a terminal?05:32
KM0201luxurymode: if you just want a list of text..... gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list05:33

arvutsome background on why I can't get ubuntu to boot (none of the kernels work, not even recoverymode).. I fixed the MBR after messing it up with windows recovery cd (xp), got grub back where it should be but now 10.10 wont boot (it did before i messed things up)05:36
KM0201luxurymode: eh.. possible.. or it might be that skype repo(but i don't recall that happening w/ skype)05:36
mbvpixies78could it be a driver issue?05:36

mbvpixies78any way to tell if it's the mouse's port on the box other than keep trying different distros?05:37

JamesScottSomersI have a quick question, any help is appreciated:  I never had this problem with Windows XP but I am now dual-booting Windows 7 on my new computer.  I don't want to change any Windows settings because it is for work.  What I want to do is run a Windows executable on the Windows partition, but before I do I have to flag it as "executable" which it is not letting me do.  I am assuming the reason why is because of settings on Windows end although th05:39
JamesScottSomersat is surprising as well.  My question is is there is a mount configuration or something similar I can do to run my executables on my Windows 7 drive.  TYVM05:39
mbvpixies78The computer on which the mouse doesn't work has one of those really old ports, before PS/2, but I have a PS/2 port as well.  I tried the com port with an adapter and also switched to com 2 by moving the plug on the motherboard, still no mouse functioning...05:39
mobius2eoss,  privoxy is not a proxy05:39

eossok so how do i dl tor the repository isnt set up for it yet in 10.10 ubuntu05:57
mobius2eoss,  the very nature of open source software precludes secrecy ,  so NSA agents are more than welcome in my book. Open source code is impossible to taint with spyware, because someone will always find it and fix it05:57
eossthats good news then05:57
ZykoticK9mobius2, ask the openbsd people if they agree with that statement right now </ot>05:58

ZykoticK9mbvpixies78, see if the one that it's working on has an xorg.conf file and is specifying the mouse in some manner - then perhaps copy that to the non-working one.  Best of luck.06:34

r00t4rd3dyou can always edit the grub.conf to fix any problems that arise06:45
ZykoticK9asfd, i personally do agree with r00t4rd3d - i hate upgrades from one version to the next, seems to cause a lot of issues.  But it's not required, you can update if you want.06:45

maltronfrogballs: I can isolate the problem to this: the connection only occurs on ubuntu 10.10, and only when the phone is connected.  Surely the phone has something to do with it, but I can't for the life of me work out what.  I thought it was because I didn't use the right hostname, but that doesn't matter evidently as 1) I changed it back, 2) I'm using the wrong one off 10.04 on the USB.08:17
wfl好的08:18

frogballsmaltron, well that is my best guess08:18
frogballsmaltron, or try some sort of phone update08:19

Dwade09axp2,  done, it went to a new line08:50
axp2that means it worked, so hopefully you shuldn't get that message on reboot now08:51
axp2not sure if something else is causing it, but suggest coming back and asking again if it happens again on reboot08:51
Dwade09axp2,  i will reboot now as updates are done and i will let you know.08:51

xanguahdeshev: pinta http://pinta-project.com/08:55
eoseanHello! I'm in a bit of a problem. I just installed Ubuntu Netbook Edition... but now I'm stuck. I edited the dual-booting menu in Windows 7 to wait 0 seconds. That leaves me in a loop-hole of Windows7 considering Ubuntu as default, and Ubuntu's GRUB taking me to Windows 7 booter which returns me to GRUB...08:55
hdeshevHah, I didn't know shotwell could do that. Not very nice with me having to "import" the image08:55
Dwade09axp2,  i have no cd's right now.08:55
hdeshevcrawler, xangua, I'll check gthumb and pinta out. thanks!08:55

tristan3199us1i need help and dont know how to explain my problem. but i have "left over menus" not clearing off the screen.. usually just once a day or so. and it obstucts my view. how do i fix this..08:57
Andycasrww, i tried running that on my windows machine (thorugh plink.exe) but it says connection refused. I don't know where sshd keeps its logs on maybe i could get some clue from there08:57
Dwade09axp2,  as soon as i get a cd or dvd wait, i got some blank cd's would that work?08:57
Andycasrww, I can do normal ssh to it though08:57

djszapiwhy does a system need separate daemon starts if upstart can handle them ?08:57
rww(I'm not familiar with plink)08:58
rumpel__spvensko, /etc/rc.local e.g.08:58
ThomasBerendsspvensko: right click on the applicationsmenu, then choose 'edit menu' -or something like that, i have the dutch ubuntu :$-, there you can check which piece of code you need to start the application08:58
duron23spvensko: you can add it using system > preferences > startup applications08:58
Dwade09axp2,  it auto mounts the blank cd's08:58
Andycasrww, plink uses same cli like ssh on linux. I'll try using putty08:58

glacemanmy sound is not working throught my speaker, i have to put headphones any help please09:24
rethusrww: kde "was" realy fine. But i think its needs from now a long long time to get on the state, usability and stables like on 3.509:25
rethusand cause gnome use gnome-shell from april 2011, i think kde will loose more and more... if they don't dturn arround 180°09:25
rwwrethus: it works fine for me, but I long ago decided that desktop environments are 90% a matter of opinion :)09:25
brontosaurusrexrethus, yes, and good step from *buntu series would be clean uninstall of kubuntu-desktop.09:26
rethusrww: works well for me too. a long time, but each upgrade be afraid that i spend hours cause something not work isn't something for me anymore09:27
rethusWM should only work09:27
glacemanany way to list audio drivers ?09:27
rwwrethus: ah. I use Debian testing, so not much in the way of upgrades to worry about at this point in the release cycle ;)09:27
rethusexample: after upgrade to 10.10, kde use phonon and don't can handle sound anymore... after startup, all lines are mutet... after i unmute, sound is scratchy... so i every time have to select mic2 to mic1 and back to mic2 then it works09:28

upslai have beetel 100 cx usb adsl modem. i have trouble connecting it to internet.11:10
martinhackshi, is there a way to store / restore ubuntu's configurations / preferences?11:10
red2kicaaaf: Because you probably explicitly told them not to pull in new packages. Packages will be held back for certain reasons (such as the mandatory to pull in new additional packages).11:10
red2kicaaaf: "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude full-upgrade"  Me think.11:11
coz_sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade would do the trick11:11
martinhacksI failed to install ubuntu on a larger partition and now the only solution I have is to install ubuntu on a larger partition, therefore I'd like to keep all my settings11:12
Dostumhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/551442/11:12
aaafred2kic, i did not explicitly hold them back (perhaps implicit but i don't know how)11:12
aaafred2kic i always do apt-get dist-upgrade if packages are hold back11:12
aaafred2kic is aptitude full-upgrade better?11:12
rumpe2martinhacks, backup /etc and /home... there should be all your necessary configs11:13
red2kicaaaf: There are no differences. I'm not familiar with apt-get, only aptitude.11:13
martinhackscan I then "paste" them back?11:13
rumpe2martinhacks, /home yes. /etc also, if you install the same ubuntu-version11:13
red2kicaaaf: See the above (from coz_).  Try that.11:13
martinhacksthanks rumpe2!11:13
martinhackswill do11:13
upslabeetel 100cx usb modem problem .any body help ?11:13
rumpe2martinhacks, often you don't need /etc, except if you have changed daemon-settings (sudoers, special fstab-entries, etc.)11:14
arvuthow is this possible?11:14
arvuthttp://pastebin.com/RzYn9FsP11:14
martinhackswell I got zeitgeist running11:14
martinhacksdunno if it changed anything in /etc11:14
lestatSriram: when i said "by ubuntu" i meant upstream, by those who create the ubuntu packages11:14
rumpe2martinhacks, i would also recommend a separate /home-partition... that makes it easier, when you later again make a fresh install (for a dist-upgrade e.g.)11:14
lestatcreate and mantain11:14
aaafred2kic, coz_ thanks :-)11:14
coz_aaaf,  did that work?11:15
martinhackshmm never thought of it, that's clever11:15
martinhacksthanks rumpe211:15
rumpe2martinhacks, if you don't know, back it up and when you later recognize, that you had some special configs, you can paste the specific /etc-files back11:15

numbertodoes anybody knows why headphones are working and mic not on my headphone12:01
glacemannumberto: my headphones are working, my speakers are not :S12:02
Hailsematarynope, I don't want the debian diff, I want to look at patches dir, rules file etc. for packaging issues12:02
Jordan_UHailsematary: That's all in the debian diff.12:02
mvanleroger21: so you sure that all the user's ~/.bash* files don't have any other export PATH ?12:02
GneaHailsematary: use the apt-get source <packagename> command12:02
Jordan_UHailsematary: Everything that is not in the upstream tarball is in the debian diff.12:02
numbertoglaceman: ha ha, but really why could that be - it is a headset and it is bundeled12:02

elvensinapparently there is a bug with my computer yet still want to fix it12:04
g0thError: /dev/sdf: unrecognised disk label12:05
g0thwhat does this mean?12:05
Gneait means that Ubuntu sees your new disk12:05
mvanleroger21: yeah, but the problem with greping just ~/.bash* is that the bash files themselves can source other files. if you try removing/renaming all the user's ~/.bash* files, and then have him 'su - <user_id>', and then "echo $PATH" he'll have nothing. that would prove that one of the ~/.bash* files are calling another file somewhere.12:05
g0thGnea: I already told you, it does not show up in the installation12:06
g0thhow do I install ubuntu on that disc?12:06
Gneag0th: and yet, Ubuntu sees it. are you using 10.10 or 10.04?12:06
g0th10.1012:06
roger21mvanle, i'll try that12:07
g0thwell if it does not show up in the installation I call this "not seen"12:07
Gneaah, the broken one that everyone keeps complaining about12:07
* Gnea notes that 10.04 suffers much less from these problems12:07
g0thJordan_U: any idea what the message above means?12:07

g0thg is not for "gnu"12:10
Gneaam I?12:10
g0thit is probably for gnome?12:10
mvanleroger21: yeah. if using bash, the order is after login: call ~/.bash_profile -> ~/.bashrc. and ~/.bashrc sources stuff in /etc/bashrc. there's a lot of calls made in /etc/bashrc ...12:11
Gnearight, because ubottu gives misleading information12:11

kaddi_jrib so I'd better get info on PPAs from launchpad?13:11
induzi want to run Vista or Xp on it13:11
Guest66322Atlantic777: I was told removing the lock file can mess up & system, & when I did this last week I had to re-install my OS which I did, & now it happened again.13:11
josephPHglaceman: I know right! LOL! I just can't install Ubuntu on C:. HOw will Windows boot if there is no NTLDR and BOOT.INI?13:11
elvensin@root heres something interesting13:11
wookienzok so eth0 on laptop is dsl connection... eth1 is wireless connection?13:12
jukjosephPH: go for wubi13:12
glacemaninstall ubuntu from window, select C: partition, and that's it, it wont be formatted, don't worry about ur xp installation, it will dual boot13:12
Bipul`induz, which version of ubuntu you using at this moment13:12
josephPHglaceman: That is why I am asking if anybody here has tried just manually copying the 2 Windows boot files to another driev, have GRUB manage the rest.13:12
jribkaddi_: up to you.  If you like the site, it's probably fine and if in the end you are only using it for information and not installing software from it, I don't see how it would jeopardize your system13:12
Atlantic777Guest66322: ok... it's not something you should do at the day to day basis, but I did that several times without problems ;)13:12
glacemanlisten13:12

jocrawfohey guys the system settings for apt proxies are stored in /etc/apt/apt.conf however is there an .apt/apt.conf or something that each user can use to override the system settings?13:12
glacemanjosephPH: delete ntldr and boot.ini, then grab urself a winxp2 cd, launch the recovery console, and repair ur installation, it should install ur files on D13:13
josephPHjuk: wubi?13:13
juk!wubi | josephPH:13:13
ubottujosephPH:: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting. Please  file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. For Ubuntu Maverick/10.10 http://releases.ubuntu.com/maverick/wubi.exe13:13
Guest66322Atlantic777: When I did it last week, it did not fix apt, it made apt demand that I install a package I did not want to install anymore & would not let me use apt unless I installed that app, yet every time I tried it would freeze & lock up apt.13:13
josephPHjuk: Thanks but I don't want Wubi.13:14
Nanohawookienz: DSL: connect to eth0 (66.42.212.110 / 255.255.255.252 gw: 66.42.212.109)  Access point: eth1 (192.168.1.1 / 255.255.255.0 )13:14
Atlantic777Guest66322: can you give us error message?13:14
kaddi_jrib I would be adding repositories suggested by that site, so in a way I would be instlaling software (at least suggested by if not) from them.13:14
elvensinanyone know how to fix this> Conexant CX20585 no sound threw headphones13:14

jukjosephPH: then you screwed13:14
Guest66322Atlantic777: No because that wa smy old system13:14
glacemanjosephPH: delete ur boot.ini and ntldr from c, restart ur computer, insert winxp cd, launch it, go to recovery console, type "fixboot" then "fixmbr" it should reinstall them to d13:14
wookienzNanoha: OK! so which on desktop is connecting to laptop and outside to internet?13:14

Nanohaglaceman: eth1 connects to the laptop13:15

glacemanNanoha: i didn't undertstood what u said exactly13:15
Atlantic777Guest66322: could it be some broken packages which caused apt to lock up?13:15
Guest66322Atlantic777: But I can give you the current errror messsage13:15
wookienzok so eth1 on desktop must be on same subnet as laptop. ie 192.168.1.0 subnet.13:16
Nanohaglaceman: sorry mistell13:16
glacemanNanoha: no problem13:16
Atlantic777Guest66322: ok, give me current then...13:16
jribd3cented: halevt works well for me13:16
Nanohawookienz: they are. 255.255.255.013:16
wookienzNanoha: then for your default route on eth1 on desktop your owuld add 192.168.1.1 as gw.13:16
tone天啊13:16
kaddi_jrib it's not a launchpad ppa but apparently from something called "hacktolive" which is why I'm asking13:16

somethinginteresIsrafil: brightness is often an issue with laptops. It should be fixable. The brightness issue also present when running on A/C power?13:17
Atlantic777Guest66322: no apt's running? Software center, synaptic... ?13:17
glacemanjosephPH: anytime ;)13:17
Guest66322Nothing13:17
israfilsomethinginteres: i fixed it in an older version. But now it does not work anymore. And yes, i am running mostly on AC power13:17
Guest66322Atlantic777: none of that running, remember I went through this last week13:17
Guest66322Atlantic777: but when I last removed lock, it caused that other problem which I cannot give you the error message to since I re-installed my OS since then13:18
wookienzNanoha: now you should be able to ping the laptop internal interface13:18
Guest66322Atlantic777: I spenbt 2 days in here last time last week13:18
Nanohawookienz: okay.  I'm doing this through the network manager gui.  So, do I need to use Routes for eth0?  It seems a bit redundant13:18
Atlantic777Guest66322: only idea I have is manual removing lock. And I can't remember any problems with doing that. :D Sorry...13:18
d3centedi see...13:19
FrenkI want to otain a SSL certificate but I  read that if it is password protected I need to enter the password each time a service is restarted. I have a monitoring solution (monit) which restarts the services if something happens. Is it very insecure to have a SSL-cert without password or is it easier to configure monit with the SSL-password?13:19
wookienzNanoha: eht0 on desktop or laptop?13:19
somethinginteresisrafil: something like this http://www.allquests.com/question/2344140/HOWTO-Fix-your-laptops-brightness-function-keys-operating-properly-in-804-Hardy.html13:19
Nanohawookienz: desktop13:20
wookienzNanoha: an get into CLI - much more fin and easier IMHO13:20
Guest66322Atlantic777: when I did that last week, it cause both apt & dpkg to demand I install a particular program & not allow me to remove, or add any other programs until then, & when I tried, then it would freeze apt again causing the lock problem again. & even cntrl C would not kill apt.13:20
NanohaI shoud be able to ping my access poitn (192.168.1.245) but am getting destination host unreachable13:20

induzBipul`, I am using karmic13:21
Guest66322juk: No one should ever have to reinstall windows! :p13:21
wookienztake eth0 down, so only the eth1 connected to wifi access point is up, will help issue. as long as the interfaces are on same ip you should be able to ping each other - with or without routes13:21
q5hi13:21
Guest66322Atlantic777: Nope not a permission error, it was a corrupted apt-get/dpkg install list error13:22

wookienzNanoha: ill be back in 10 minutes....13:22

Nanohagr0gmint: okay, I'll be here13:23
Guest66322Atlantic777: could you tell me how to completely, manually remove apt & dpkg from my entire system, to purge apt & dpkg?13:23

eikuHello. I’ve followed this help https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes#GTT%20Incoherency%20Patch thinking it would solve freeze problems, but as it failed to recognize my screen resolution, I tried to reverse using ppa-purge. Now when I boot up ubuntu, I get a black screen. I have a live USB at hand that recognizes my screen resolution. How can I copy its X11 config to mine?13:23
Nanohadarn mistells!!!  lol13:23
Nanohasorry13:23
Guest66322Atlantic777: yap, just apt-get upgrade caused it13:23

vsairhow to cancel gdm of ubuntu?14:08
Tadejsorry I ment ronr__14:08
mvanlevsair: what do you mean cancel14:08
vsairthx!14:08
vsaircancel14:08
ronr__Tadej: because I have lots of data on the drive, and I have no way to back it up.14:09
vsairyes14:09
upslauboutto:help14:09
Tadejronr__: I dont think you can run ubuntu on NTFS14:09
upslahelp14:09
ronr__Tadej: oh, it can't read NTFS? only FAT?FAT32?14:09
Tadejronr__: you will have to move the data or at least resize data partition and make new one from available free space14:09
s3r3n1t7How can i check if a user has a password set?14:10
Tadejronr__: it can read it, but it cant run from it, as far as I know14:10
ronr__Tadej: can the file system be converted without formatting it?14:10
upslasriram_:hi14:10
Tadejno14:10
ronr__ok14:10
Tadeji dont think so14:10
mvanlevsair: in /etc/inittab change "id:5:initdefault:" to "id:3:initdefault:"14:11
Tadejbut you can use partition magic and resize NTFS (make it smaller)14:11
Tadejand install ubuntu on the rest of free space14:11
somethinginteresronr__:  that's a tricky one. I've never heard of that being done before. The only thing I could think of is shrinking the NTFS partition and giving the remaining space to Ubuntu. But there's a chance of data loss and without a backup method it's risky14:11
ronr__okay. now, if I run the installation and choose to format the disk afterall, are the installation default partitions good enough or should I change them?14:12
mvanles3r3n1t7: in /etc/passwd14:12
s3r3n1t7mvanle, can't see if it has a password there can i?14:12
somethinginteresronr__:  you should probably change them. Most people put their /home on a different partition to keep files if they need to upgrade/reinstall etc14:12
ronr__somethinginteres, Tadej: I can try backing it up on a different machine, I just imagine it'll take forever and then some.14:12
somethinginteresronr__: I'd say backup is the only real method14:13
Tadejronr__: but it is the best solution...14:13
xxiaohow do I remove a menu in Applications list, I installed wine, then 'remove --purge' it, but the menu stays14:13
kovid_how can i make it so my current user automatically logs in? i dont need to enter a password on bootup any more14:13
mvanles3r3n1t7: it might look like this "s3r3n1t7:x:500:500::/home/s3r3n1t7:/bin/bash". the 'x' mean there's a password set.14:13
ronr__I'll try to. Not sure how well it'd work on my home network.14:13
s3r3n1t7mvanle, that's a lot more helpful, didn't know that. Thanks14:13
ronr__other than the /home dir, should I set other dirs as well on a different partition?14:13
kovid_or, how can i make it so this machine automatically connects to a wireless network without a user logging in? i want to be able to ssh into it, but after i restart i have to log in before it will connect to a network14:14
s3r3n1t7mvanle, that leads me to my next question: Why would i have an sshd user login with password?14:14
somethinginteresronr__:  that should be fine just /, /home and swap14:14
ronr__or let's say this, I have a 320GB hard disk, how should I partition it to avoid future problems?14:14
pavankumarlI cleared cache 5 min before now again got notification that root folder is running out of memory, what should I do, how do I stop this unnecessary logging14:14
upslamode +b14:14

=== frank_ is now known as M3de
mvanles3r3n1t7: because the ssh user is logging in the host without using a key.14:15
U-b-u-n-t-uI added a share folder in my home dir and I right clicked it and chose to share it with others on the network and I can see it from other computers on the network but when I try to access it, it asks for a password and I put in the password I added with  sudo smbpasswd -a myusername and it wont let me access it... why14:15
s3r3n1t7mvanle, but i have no user named sshd14:15
somethinginteresronr__: /home can be as big as you wish. I had my root partition as 10GB which was far too small so you should probably give that a fair amount of space14:15
ronr__are there any known problems running ubuntu on an atom/ion platform?14:15
ronr__somethinginteres: okay, should I give the root 20G? 50G?14:16
mvanles3r3n1t7: oh you mean "sshd" in /etc/passwd ... well, the /etc/passwd file contains information about user acounts. "sshd" is an account that is probably not a regular user. these types of accounts are created for system administration purposes eg. the sshd service runs as user "sshd". it's for security reasons.14:16
s3r3n1t7mvanle, that doesn't explain why it has a password set still ...14:17
somethinginteresronr__: based on my spending 9hrs last night having to give extra space to root I'd say 50GB to be safe it depends on how much you wanna install but yeah bigger is better to avoid annoyances later14:17
mvanles3r3n1t7: if it did not have a password, some guy can just log in as user "sshd" on your host.14:17
=== bencahill_ is now known as bencahill
s3r3n1t7mvanle, no he couldn't, since sshd is set to not allow passwordless logins14:17
s3r3n1t7mvanle, although that does sound like a sane theory14:18
s3r3n1t7mvanle, thank you.14:18
mvanles3r3n1t7: yeah but you're talking about "ssh" as a connection. i'm talking about "sshd" as a user.14:18
s3r3n1t7mvanle, ssh daemon won't allow any user to login without a password, including but not limited to the user sshd14:18
owneruseruhh... hello, is this place open for support?14:18
ronr__somethinginteres: okay, thanks for the help. I've never used ubuntu before (I use Fedora at work), hope it goes well. it's 'only' meant to be a media center though, so it'd mostly run VLC and maybe XMBC.14:18
s3r3n1t7owneruser, yup, go ahead 'n ask.14:19

bnut_that seems to lock the folder on the windows box14:24
mrrothwhat is the best ubuntu based nas?14:24
bnut_I don't want it to do that14:24
somethinginteresronr__: not in any great detail never used it myself it basically installs a program called "mythtv" by default and helps to set it up. It's Ubuntu especially for PVR but it is meant for standalone mediacentres so if you're going to use your PC for media and more (like me) regular Ubuntu is best. If it is just a PVR then mythbuntu might be worth a shot. Saves a lot of time I hear14:24
eikubut I don’t know where the config files are for root14:24
evilenkoi dont want to download the files, just want to know how many files a website has14:24
mvanleeiku: you could create a symlink in /root to the ~/.XCompose of the single user.14:24
eikuI have already copied it in /root14:25
evilenkofind out how many files a website has? with wget?14:25
eikubut it seems not to work14:25
SomelauwSo, what is the most shell like user interface that I can use firefox with?14:25
mvanleeiku: (but this is bad security practice. if somebody hacked your ~/.XCompose file, the root user will use it too).14:25
somethinginteresmrroth: Ubuntu Server would be the way to go though FreeNAS might be worth looking into (not Ubuntu based though)14:25
eiku(maybe I should have rebooted or something)14:25
ronr__somethinginteres: it seems it can be added at a later time to an existing ubuntu installation, so I may look into it later.14:25
eikumvanle, no problem here, I’m on a live session (liveUSB)14:25
somethinginteresronr__: yeah you can indeed14:25
eiku(so my idea of rebooting was stupid)14:26
ronr__somethinginteres: one last question if you don't mind. I have 4GB ram, should I get the 32bit or 64bit version? (in windows I have to use the 64bit)14:26
eikuSomelauw, did you mean launch firefox from a terminal?14:26
eikuSomelauw, or control it via the terminal?14:26
somethinginteresronr__: 64bit. A 32bit cant page 4gb14:27
SomelauwYes, but I also want to display it without having to start gnome.14:27
ronr__somethinginteres: great, that's what I downloaded.14:27
ArachonHullo, I'm running Ubuntu 10.4 and I don't seem to have the latest version of Ubuntu Software Center, how can I update it?14:27
SomelauwLaunch it from a terminal.14:27
ronr__somethinginteres: so thanks for all the help. I may come in later to bug you with more questions if I encounter any problems ;)14:27
eikuSomelauw, then the answer is no, not possible, but you can use w3m or links or lynx14:27
somethinginteresronr__: no problem. Hope it works out.14:28
ronr__thanks. have a great weekend!14:28
mvanlesomethinginteres: not to my knowledge. you need a X session to display firefox.14:28

gobbeLaurenceb: or keys14:52
somethinginteresCradam: I can send it to you14:53
Laurencebhow do i set that up?14:53
marine1ne2k: O.K. good enough I just asking as to whe I install this 2nd haddrive what is the best procedure in setting it up.14:53
milamberLaurenceb: add your computer to the allowed list.14:53
rumpe1Laurenceb, with ssh-keygen. After that that execute "ssh-copy-id user@host" to copy it to the server. voila.14:54
Laurencebmilamber: how?14:54
milamberLaurenceb: but if you just got the install i don't think you could have disabled it yet. try: ssh localhost14:54
Laurencebright14:54
Laurenceb/etc/ssh/ssh_config: line 54: Bad configuration option: AllowUsers14:55
gobbeLaurenceb: that's option of sshd_config14:56

aeon-ltdhi i've got a memory card reader (internal) is there a 'ls' type command or similar to poll all the memory cards plugged in14:58
ne2kmarine1: stop pasting14:58
milamberLaurenceb: yes, you need sshd  (openssh-server) to lot in remotely14:58
milamberlog*14:58
marine1ne2k: ok so what do you recommend14:58
ne2kaeon-ltd: if you use dmesg you will see recent kernel messages and it will show there if it recommended anything14:59
milamberaeon-ltd: sudo fdisk -l14:59
rumpe1aeon-ltd, lsusb14:59
Laurencebmilamber: can i login with putty?14:59
aeon-ltdthanks all14:59
milamberLaurenceb: if your ssh-server is configured correctly, then yes. putty is the most common ssh client program i've seen for windows14:59
gobbeLaurenceb: yes, but you need to create key in every computer where do you want to connect14:59
milamberLaurenceb: if you are connecting from another unixy computer, ssh is built in. just type ssh <hostname>15:00
gobbemilamber: well, i understood that he/she is trying to disable password logins15:00
zsyhello.everyone.15:00
marine1ne2k: ??15:01
Laurencebmilamber: ok, so i try to login with putty and it asks for username and password15:02
milambergobbe: ahh, i thought he was just trying to test his newly installed ssh-server :)15:02
ne2kmarine1: you seem to be asking about two completely separate things15:02
Laurencebi enter password and get acess denied15:02
aeon-ltdne2k: the kernel didn't reccommend anything, so i assume my memory card reader does not support sdhc cards15:02
Laurencebi am try to disable password logins as well15:02
xtcHI :)15:03
milamberLaurenceb: did you set putty up with the correct username? and have you modified the sshd_config file at all?15:03
Koheleth1Laurenceb: check CAPS aint on15:03
Laurencebto make it more secure15:03
rumpe1aeon-ltd, try "tail -f /var/log/messages" and plugoff/plugin the reader/card15:03
Laurencebi know, its nort15:03
Laurenceb- no capslock15:03
Laurencebsshd_config has been modified to allow me as the user15:03
Koheleth1Laurenceb: is it a fresh install?15:03
Laurencebyes15:03
Koheleth1Laurenceb: maybe you messed the password up?15:04
Laurencebno15:04
marine1ne2k: well I asked you what is the best process for formatting the 2nd harddrive whether it's using gparted or a livecd15:04
Laurencebill try remving the modifications to sshd_config15:04
Bipul`can any one look at my problem why i am getting this http://paste.ubuntu.com/551504/15:04
Koheleth1Laurenceb: reinstall try again!15:04
marine1ne2k: and the 2nd question arose when I tried to update my system via update manager15:04
milamberLaurenceb: just confirming, you were able to login using ssh localhost on the server itself?15:04

marine1ne2k: then how to format the 2nd harddrive'15:12
rohitnikcoolMy net gets disconnected after a while.Plzzzzzzzzzzz some one help me15:12
milamberLaurenceb: excellent :) on a side note - ssh is pretty secure. i wouldn't worry about passwordless logins. most people just put it on a different port. (i'd recommend something higher than the default nmap scan - it will keep you safe from most script kiddies)15:13
Kohelethrohitnikcool:  its prolly your isp playing with you I get it all I the time cuz I download a lot15:13
gobbe^Alita: how did you do the stick?15:13

ne2kmarine1: like I said, you're confused. you don't format a drive, you format a partition on a disk15:14
marine1ne2k: let's move on to the 2nd issue did you look at my pastbin15:14
rohitnikcoolKoheleth: i thinks there is no issue of isp because i am using windows too and on it net works pretty good.15:15
ne2kmarine1: you seem to be labouring under the impression that it is my duty to help you15:15
Laurencebmilamber: so when i connect from putty i have to setup an RSA key, but to actually login its just asking for a password as before15:15

ZykoticK9Yuyo, after you add partner, don't forget to run "sudo apt-get update" then you'll find the sun-java-* stuff.15:56
Yuyooh, ok, thanks :)15:56
sam-_-anonymous, if the vob is still encrypted you will be out of luck i guess15:56
YuyoZykoticK9, is that the same as: http://www.clickonf5.org/linux/how-install-sun-java-ubuntu-1004-lts/7777 ? because it did that already, but haven't run update yet15:57

ZykoticK9Yuyo, those directions seem to add partner for Lucid - are you using 10.04?15:57
Yuyonope, 10.1015:58
ZykoticK9Yuyo, if you haven't run update - then you haven't actually changed anything yet.  -- if you are using 10.10 - then use the directions ubottu gave, and not that sites.15:58
Yuyocan i undo what that site told me to do?15:59
ZykoticK9Yuyo, check your /etc/apt/sources.list for anything with "lucid" in the name, or "partner" for that matter.  Hopefully it will be there.16:00

christopher@Grav I'm posting a link to an answer that works but it is command line based because it works directly with the sensors through "lmsensors". However it was posted in 2002 so I don't know if anyone has made a gui frontend for it yet. If that's important to you I'd search Ubuntu forums. Here's the llink.16:10

=== petr is now known as __bro__
Tink__89wyclif, well I'm using Chrome which should have Flash built in if I read correctly. So I did about:plugins but Flash isn't in there so couldn't follow Adobe's instructions.

m4xxdid you need anything on your windows partition?16:22
ZykoticK9Tink__89, easiest way to install a working flash is to install ubuntu-restricted-extras16:22
Nanohaeiku: I know where you're coming from.  The past two days weren't my day at all either!16:22
eikum4xx, not really, I use it to test my site with IE16:22
eikuand test my app on windows16:22
m4xxthen i would just format the whole drive16:22
wyclifTink__89: do you know how to install software via Synaptic? Open Synaptic and enter "Flash" in search. Look for the main Flash package and make sure it's checked. If not, install it.16:22
m4xxpartition it with w/e you want then re-install both16:22
m4xxi think you need to start with windows though16:23
eikubut if I had stayed in bed 1 hour longer this morning, I wouldn’t have had the series of misfortunes that led me there…16:23
m4xxunless you use two disks16:23

Tink__89wyclif, thanks I will give that a go :)16:23
christopherI agree... Format the entire drive, install windows, then install ubuntu leaving windows with very little room...16:23
m4xxi believe windows want's to be the first partition on the disk16:23
eikum4xx, the problem is, I have a lot of data on my /home16:23
m4xx*wants not wasn't16:23
wyclifTink__89: If you can wait a sec I can tell you what the exact package is16:23

Tink__89ZykoticK9, yes it works in Firefox, but I don't particularly like using Firefox, it's too slow lol.16:29

Tink__89ZykoticK9, I'm using Chromium Web Browser, got it from Synaptiks16:30

agentgasmaskHi. I'm trying to boot a Supermicro motherboard to a usb or usb-cdrom. The bios lists the devices in the boot menu, but they are not in the boot order, they look like they are sitting on the side. Does anyone have experiance with this?17:24

danielereanyone have any knowledge of me-tv or kaffeiene17:45
mneptokEnigmaticCoder: think about it. in 500 years will XP boot the latest computing device? no way. will it boot a netbook released tomorrow? probably. so sometime between tomorrow and 500 years WindowsXP will no longer be a viable platform. and it's probably closer to tomorrow than it is to 500 years.17:45

anonymousI need a piece of software to monitor a ethernet adapter.17:57
ajwillEnigmaticCoder: one thing you can do to see a majority is just ls /usr/bin then ls /bin, that'll give you a chunk but there's more elsewhere, you can also use apropos for looking for something you want, then to learn about each command use man [command]17:57
EnigmaticCoderitaylor57: that's what I'm looking for17:57
itaylor57EnigmaticCoder: np17:57
smwEnigmaticCoder, if you are trying to learn to use the command line, getting a list of every commadn would be crazy17:57

smwanonymous, what about a ethernet adapter?17:58
ajwillhi all, I have a quick question, I'm wanting to speed my computer up, its fairly old and its getting annoying how slow it gets sometimes, should I upgrade ram, my video card, both, or something I dont know about? :P17:58
EnigmaticCodersmw: How did you go about learning the command line?17:58
anonymousDo those programs passivly monitor the adaptar? I want to still be able to use the device, but monitor the traffic and last i checked wireshark didnt do that.17:58
Quantum_Iona7i3n, Is the PDF available on line ?17:58
smwEnigmaticCoder, trial and error and practice17:59
rumpe1anonymous, wireshark IS passive17:59
lukethedukeanonymous: wireshark does exactly that.17:59
Quantum_IonEnigmaticCoder, If you know Unix you know Linux pretty much17:59
sam-_-_ajwill, the answer is: it depends17:59
a7i3niftop and iptraf are pretty good as well.17:59
duron23ajwill: I think upgrading processor is best option17:59
sam-_-_ajwill, tell us your computer specs, maybe?17:59
smwEnigmaticCoder, some parts of the advanced bash scripting guide may help. But you learn by seeing examples and making your own.17:59
Quantum_IonUnix for dummies you just need to know a few commands to move around the operating system17:59
ajwillokay well my computer specs: I dont know the processor, I believe I have a 60mb video card, and 700 some odd mb of ram18:00
smwEnigmaticCoder, the bottom line is you need time, google, and patience :-)18:00
duron23anonymous: yes, using wireshark you can do all of that18:00
psycho_oreosanonymous, wired can do it via promiscuous mode which can listen to packets not directly sent to the device MAC address itself, wireless can do both promiscuous and rfmon but they are specifically driver/chipset specific.18:00
Quantum_Ionand sometimes the commands in Unix/Linux can be applied to Windows command line usage too18:00
ajwilloh and an 80GB hard drive, the computer's a dell dimension 300018:00
duron23smw: very true18:00

azlonhow can i connect to another machine using VNC without having to enter the keyring passwd? i can ssh into it, but i cant VNC to it18:01
jamay#archlinux-fr18:01
Quantum_Iona7i3n, Just google the book and put *.pdf in the title and see what comes up18:01
sam-_-_ajwill, cat /proc/cpuinfo |less           will tell you the name of your processor18:01
Quantum_IonSometimes that is how you can find a lot of computer books FREE online via Google18:02
a7i3nhehe you just answered your own question :)18:02
psycho_oreosanonymous, fyi promisc is very network dependent as well, you can't receive packets if the device for example you're connected to on wired is a switch, a hub will tell however18:02
ajwillsam-_-_: where would it say? in front of processor, it says 018:02
ResQuedoes 10.10 not come with gparted installed by default anymore? has it been replaced with another tool?18:03

duron23ajwill: how much RAM have you got ?18:03
GeekSquid!coding | ner0x lots of um here18:04
sam-_-_ajwill, upgrading such an old pc might be more expensive than buying a new one18:04
ubottuner0x lots of um here: Programming editors/suites: Terminal-based: vi/vim, emacs - KDE: Kate, KDevelop, Quanta+, Umbrello - GNOME: gvim, gedit, anjuta, pida, monodevelop, geany - Others: eclipse, netbeans, qtcreator18:04

ajwillsam-_-_: not considering the fact that my next comp is gunna be a mac haha18:04
psycho_oreosanonymous, on a wired network I presume? well you can but promisc mode won't help much18:04
KM0201ajwill: with that little bit of ram, you might want to consider Lubuntu...18:04
sam-_-_ajwill, so then why do you want to upgrade?18:05
ajwillduron23: uhm, everything in general, I guess how to say it would I would like to just be able to do more things at once18:05
duron23ajwill: then consider adding more RAM18:05
ajwillbecause, my computer's painfully slow and money's really tight atm, so I would like to have a well-working computer up until I can get a mac18:05
anonymouspsycho_oreos problem I have with wireshark is it always tells me their are no interfaces that can be monitored, I was more looking for something that could be run from terminal.18:05

pr0ph3tI'm having some problems with a couple of rfswitches that have not been implemented in the driver I am using, more specifically those for the 3g modem, for bluetooth and wifi all is good. Is there anyway I could set them up without recompiling the kernel and applying the patch?18:16

ZykoticK9Chelu, if you are SURE you only want Ubuntu just install it using Entire disk18:17
GeekSquidpr0ph3t: specifically the 3G modem18:17
pr0ph3tGeekSquid, there is a patch for it, yes the 3g modem18:17

tekkhi guys, i've installed xubuntu with an encrypted full disk lvm... upon boot as expected it asks me for the encryption passphrase to decrypt the system... is there a way to make this operation automatic or via certificate rather than password... the machine is a server so I cannot be there to type in a password everytime i want to reboot... any ideas?18:19
bonjoyeeChelu: then u should probably keep windows for some days;)18:19
edbianChelu: Do you have gparted installed?18:19
AbhiJit!gparted | Chelu18:19
ubottuChelu: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php18:19

chrisalexthomashi, I have an odd request, I installed jolicloud on a mini pc which sits under my tv, I Did this in the uk, where my brother had a keyboard and mouse, now I'm sitting in spain, with just a mouse and a macbook, I dont have a keyboard, the bios on the mini pc requires me to press f11 to select the usb boot device, so I'm screwed I think18:22
ZykoticK9rumpe1, +118:22
=== james is now known as Guest65153
chrisalexthomaswhat I would like to do, is from inside jolicloud, boot the usb key as if it was installing normally, is that possible?18:23
Guest65153hey people18:23
goetterwhat's the fastest way to make this go away? "zsh: command not found: testparm"18:23
pr0ph3tduron23, I have the kernel sources from git and the patch is a git diff in theory, but I am not sure how to download the actual patch to be honest18:23
chrisalexthomasI dont want to go and buy a keyboard if I can get away from it18:23
GeekSquidpr0ph3t: does the card work? I mean, are you able to connect to the internet from within ubuntu?18:24
chrisalexthomasI realise it's a weird thing to ask, but I was wondering can linux boot another linux from inside itself?18:24
duron23chrisalexthomas: I don't think you can get away with it without keyboard18:24
chrisalexthomasduron23: :( I was fairly sure of that anyway, I was hoping for someone to surprise me more than anything18:24
rumpe1chrisalexthomas, yes.. in a virtual machine18:24
chrisalexthomasrumpe1: ah, but it's not a virtual machine, it's a real machine18:25
theconartist................18:25
chrisalexthomasor do you mean create a virtual machine which uses the hdd of the real pc as a disk18:25
chrisalexthomasthen boot the usb and install directly to the disk?18:25
duron23chrisalexthomas: this is my take on it, let see if anyone else has any other ideas, hope you see keep everyting going :)18:25
pr0ph3tGeekSquid, I can use it on windows yes, I can talk to it to a certain extent but rfkills list all only gives me the wifi and bluetooth so the 3g modem is off I guess?18:25
rumpe1chrisalexthomas, for example18:25
chrisalexthomasrumpe1: good idea, thanks for that18:25
carliukxhello again18:26

edbianglicks: it's opinion if it's better18:29
glicksZykoticK9, which one do you use more often? and why would you want to switch between them?18:30
GeekSquidpr0ph3t: I think you are waiting for that to be merged, you would have a huge learning curve to compile a new kernel, and that is beyond the scope of the help you can receive here. ... however you can try a newer kernel from ppa to see if it has been implemented into later kernels... see https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas or just the kernel ppa here https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa18:30

ZykoticK9NickyT, sometime going to desktop and selecting the icon on desktop "install" works better then the "install ubuntu" from the first menu18:53

Paddy_NIChipset is RaLink RT309018:56
wyclifpozic: sam-_-_: yes, I forgot all about gfax18:57
ZykoticK9Russiya, add the partner repo - sudo apt-get update - then you'll find the sun Java stuff.18:57
ZykoticK9!partner | Russiya18:57
ubottuRussiya: Canonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" »18:57
duron23Russiya: in synaptic try and search for sun java plugin18:57
carliukxso thats the one to install it to my virtual box???18:57
=== mike_ is now known as Guest491
ZykoticK9carliukx, alternate or Live should both work in VBox18:58
GeekSquidcarliukx: it will give you the option to try ubuntu, from there you can install it18:58
ZykoticK9GeekSquid, not from alternate it won't18:58
pozicsam-_-: is a fax modem the same as the modems that existed 13 years ago (33K6, 56K), etc.?18:58
GeekSquidZykoticK9: did I say anything about alternate?18:58
ZykoticK9GeekSquid, that's what ISO they have18:59
pozicsam-_-: can I somehow also directly connect the fax to the computer?18:59
sam-_-pozic, don't know but i would be surprised if anything had changed18:59
amasdamHas anyone managed to recover .iso files from EXT3?18:59
GeekSquidZykoticK9: look 15-20 lines up18:59
carliukxsee thats the thing it does not give me the option to try it it just letme install it but the insstall step fail18:59
ZykoticK9GeekSquid, "<carliukx> yes it is the ubuntu10.10-alternate-1386 iso"18:59
edbianpozic: I believe there are web services that let you send faxes for free but there is no way to recieve faxes for free.  I know the same is true for text messages19:00
BarkingFishGood evening guys!  Can someone here please tell me what the name of the package is on Ubuntu which allows you to set up your boot system, i.e select which partition or grub entry to boot?19:00
sam-_-pozic, don't know what you mean exactly but fax works via dialup. so not via your ethernet or wifi connection19:00
GeekSquidZykoticK9: (10:56:52 AM) GeekSquid: carliukx: you might want to download the ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso19:00
ZykoticK9!grub2 | BarkingFish19:00
ubottuBarkingFish: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub219:00
pozicsam-_-: gfax is a big failure.19:00
BarkingFishbrilliant. thanks ZykoticK919:01
carliukxi may try with the 10.10 desktop version like geeksquid sugested and see what happens19:01

david717how would I add an auto run script in ubuntu without a GUI?19:01

carliukxthankx everyone for your help and patience!19:02
BarkingFishjust to check, is that a GUI system where you just tick stuff and click things, or is it for command line config?19:02
RussiyaOut of curiousity, anyone have problems with losing grub.cfg after updating to 10.10, with windows already installed on your computer?19:02

ZykoticK9Nesto1000, FYI the default ffmpeg in ubuntu repo does NOT support AAC audio (important for MP4, not so much for MKV)19:06

Nesto1000Not really... I'm still pretty new to ubuntu and don't really know what I'm doing lol19:09

NickyTYeah I'm downloading it now19:09
bencahillZykoticK9: I know, sorry :(19:09
NickyTis there a SuperOS version of Netbook edition?19:09
NickyTI really like how they put VLC & Chrome on it by default19:09
ZykoticK9NickyT, don't rely on wireless working out of the box, sometimes require driver installation (which means having an ethernet connection)19:10
NickyTI was able to install my wifi driver without any connection on SuperOS19:10
lxcnoviceNesto1000: have you added the mediubuntu repos?19:10
tekkwell as no one could help here i went and modified /etc/crypttab, now i've got a usb stick that i can use with a 4096 bit key to decrypt my drives on boot :D19:10

bencahillHey guys, my text is messed up, see here: (http://oi56.tinypic.com/lgr2w.jpg) any ideas?19:12
quest88yeah, I used screen and disconnected/reconnected ssh and it was still running19:12
intraderFloodBot1, how come I see #ubuntu, and #ubuntu-unregged19:12
GeekSquidquest88: screen is cool like that19:12
ner0xis there a development suite like KDevelop on ubuntu?19:12
bp0screen is also better because you can easily take it back19:12
bp0screen -r19:13
bencahillNickyT: ultimate boot cd for windows, I use it a lot (in addition to the gparted, ubuntu, gnome, and dsl livecds), and it's awesome19:13
quest88take it back?19:13
lxcnovicebencahill: looks to be theme related19:13
GeekSquidner0x: qdevelop is a qt4 version ... similar, but not exactly like Kdevelop19:14
bp0take control of it again19:14
bencahillintrader: #ubuntu rolls over to #ubuntu-unregged at levels of high volume, which requires proof of human before getting admitted to #ubuntu19:14

bencahilllxcnovice: gnome with the default ubuntu theme, it's 10.10, and i haven't changed anything...except it started happening after installing wine...19:15
lxcnovicebencahill: you could edit the image in the office theme template and black in those white boxes would look fairly decent then19:15
NickyTI wonder if 2 GB pendrive is enough for a persistence install.19:15
Nesto1000mediubuntu repos? don't think so lxcnovice19:16
bencahilllxcnovice: oh, has nothing to do with openoffice, it does it in other apps also, mainly wine apps, but this isn't a wine app...19:16
bp0bencahill, but its annoying because of some relatively recent change in freenode that doesnt send xchat the signal it needs when you have identified to nickserv19:16
GneaNickyT: yes, don't expect to save much to it19:16
bp0so you sometimes get put in there as you join your startup channels19:16
NickyTI have an extra SD card for that19:16

LeifZykoticK9, So, you think that changing to a different kernel may solve my problem?19:36

intraderdaniel_, how can I help - I use dual boot with xp, and almost never use xp anymmore20:29
xstation108ok i hope so20:29
txomon,/boot is included in /20:29
daniel_sometimes it doesnt connect to the wireless20:29

rpaisleyI've gotten a new SSD Hard drive.  Old one used encryption, new one I don't want ot pay the 50% encryption penalty.  I mounted the old encrypted one under /target during rescue, and copied everything to the new one.  When it boots, it fails to do the crypt setup.  How do I turn that off?20:34
xstation108and swap i?20:35
resnoive got a question. im trying to output the date to a log. im doing $(date 'now') > file.log. But its not working20:35
quiescensrpaisley: if you were using LVM based full disk encryption, you should be able to edit /etc/crypttab20:36
ZykoticK9resno, "date 'now'" doesn't appear to be a valid command for date20:36
resnook, one sec. i must have copied it wrong20:36
txomonxstation108: ¿?20:36
xstation108so 165gb /home then / 70 gigs and 3 gigs for swap20:36
rpaisleyquienscens:  Thanks.  We'll see if it comes up this time!20:36
txomonxstation108: it is the format, i cant remember which is the name,20:36
resnoZykoticK9: echo $(date -d now) >  $ShortTerm thats what im donig20:36
txomonxstation108: I thing it is ... exchange space20:37
quiescensrpaisley: to my knowledge, you have to edit it, then update your boot stuff in some way20:37
rpaisleyquienscens:  I don't need to turn off cryptdisk and cryptdisk-early?20:37
txomonxstation108: or something like htat20:37

ZykoticK9resno, for one thing - using > multiple times means only the last thing will be in the output file -- use >> to append.  Taking out your rsync lines leaves the date in the files.20:44

_Synergy_How do I get Ubuntu (or nvidia drivers) to redetect my monitors properly? Am I really going to have to deal with 10 hours of xorg.conf hell? is there no tool that will just detect properly?21:11

kusznirI'm trying to install 10.10 i386 as a xen domU on a CentOS-based dom0 using debootstrap (base instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=630886).  I've obtained the updated scripts and removed all the --include= option.  Unfortunately, installation blows up with some pretty low-level failures in debootstrap.  For example, the chroot line fails with /var/lib/dpkg/status not containing the version for package dpkg.21:12
txomon_Synergy_: aaah21:12
kusznirI fixed that by hand, but then a bunch more stuff blew up.21:12

ZykoticK9_Synergy_, nvidia-settings - X Server Display Configruation on left side - then there is a "Detect Displays" on the right21:12
txomon_Synergy_: Additional controlers21:12
txomon_Synergy_: do you have nvidia controlers activated?21:13
ikoniakrmX: have you configure the iptables rules to forward from that subnet ?21:13
_Synergy_txomon: I have the recommended nvidia driver installed, if thats what you mean (whats a controller?)21:13
txomonalmost the same21:13
erUSUL_Synergy_: the nvidia-settings tool is no use?21:14
txomon_Synergy_: ... try to activate the special effects21:14
_Synergy_Zykotick9: when I hit 'detect displays' on the nvidia settings tool nothing happens21:14
_Synergy_erUSUL: in the nvidia settings tool it just shows the monitor as "DFP-0" with a max resolution of 640x480 , which is incorrect21:15
erUSUL:/21:15
MrUnagierUSUL: i think it is working one sec21:15
ZykoticK9_Synergy_, is nvidia-settings getting the correct name in the Model dropdown?21:16
_Synergy_Zykotick9, no it is calling the monitor "DFP-0" , whatever that means21:16

jimi_mongy, ok that makes sense. I will try that. I want to give dhcp out my ethernet, but bridged to my wifi... do you know a link for that?21:48
GeekSquidLantchips: if you delete the NTFS partition and Resize the Ubuntu partition to fill the drive you will have one big partition21:48
NCS_Onehi21:48
Ryu_KurisuTetsuo55: Do you want the user to have read AND write permissions? Or just read?21:49
NCS_Onehow can I get scroll and copy/paste on xterm?21:49
LantchipsGeekSquid so it will do that without any problems ? Havn't tried so I have no ide yet :) But ty.. I guess I will use Gparted for it ?21:49
Tetsuo55write too, as i need the low user to delete it later21:49
erUSULGeekSquid: Lantchips that only is possible if the ntfs partition is *after* the linux partition on the disk21:49
erUSULTetsuo55: the lower user will only be able to delete if it has writte permission on the directory. writte access to the file does not matter ...21:50
Ryu_KurisuNCS_One: Copy/Paste (from website to terminal line I presume) would be Ctrl+Shift+C and Ctrl+Shift+V21:50
LantchipserUSUL how do i know if it is "after" ?  :P21:50
BarnabasLantchips, use gparted21:50

good_intentionsIs there an alternative to stream videos over internet without VLC21:51
Barnabasgood_intentions, mplayer?21:51
GeekSquidLantchips: gparted will do the job fine... but you'll have to do it from the LiveCD, as all partitions have to be unmounted to resize them... erUSUL, If he is removing the NTFS Partition he can move the linux partition to the front of the drive and expand to fill21:51
erUSULLantchips: then what you could do is format to ext4 and move home to it for example or use it as data storage mounted in /media/data or something21:51
mongyjimi_, you mean you want to make a bridged connection? 'br0' ?  you'd need to use interfaces file for that I thinik.21:52
mongythink*21:52
NCS_OneRyu_Kurisu: not in irssi21:52
good_intentionsBarnabas, I dont think mplayer can stream videos over internet (as in serverside not watching)  unless Im mistaken21:52
LantchipsGeekSquid Thank you I will try that :) And erUSUL sorta that I didn't want to do :)21:52
Barnabasgood_intentions, arh serverside21:52
erUSULGeekSquid: afaik ( maybe that changed lately ) gparted can not move the beggining of a ext* partition meaning that you can resize "to the right" but not "to the left"21:52
jimi_mongy, would i bridge them? or just route it w/o a bridge?21:53
Ryu_KurisuNCS_One: But does the shortcuts work?21:53
Barnabasgood_intentions, for recording or for relaying21:53
good_intentionsgood_intentions, Just relaying it live21:53
erUSULGeekSquid: maybe you can move/copy the whole partition to the beggining of the disk and the resize it ... never tried doing that though21:53
Barnabasgood_intentions, have you looked at icecast?21:53
milambergood_intentions: check out the ffmpeg/ffserver options available: www.ffmpeg.org21:54
good_intentionsOkay thanks Ill check out icecast and ffmpeg21:54
Barnabasicecast is widely used21:54
rcmhey there21:54
NCS_OneRyu_Kurisu: ctrl-shift-c and ctrl-shift-v dont work21:54
GeekSquiderUSUL: I believe "move" will work, and I believe I have done it on multiple occasions, plan b would be to create a persistant home in the empty space21:54
good_intentionsBarnabas, does it need a special client or can any ol player view the stream21:55
erUSULGeekSquid: ok; i stand corrected then :) move + resize works Lantchips21:55
Barnabasgood_intentions, I think its mostly dependent on your config21:55
LantchipserUSUL okok :) thank you I will test it soon :)21:55
rcmdoes anyone know, how to have 2 websites accessible on a server? :) I put one of them online with lampserver, and I access it through the ip address, but I don't know how to make the another one accessible too, do I have to create a domain name?21:55
mongyjimi_, im not too versed on bridges to give an answer.. I m not sure what affect it would have on dhcp stuff.  http://wiki.openzaurus.org/HowTos/Bridging_with_Ubuntu  good read21:56
Barnabasgood_intentions, you should be able to relay to a regular mpeg4 stream21:56
NCS_OneRyu_Kurisu: to paste from browser to terminal I have to: ctrl-c then shift-insert21:56
good_intentionsBarnabas, Nice ill give it a try21:56
GeekSquiderUSUL: your resize idea is if the partition is mounted... ext3/4 only21:56

Ademanmosty: the greying out is an effect, compiz does it, I don't know anything about it being killed though (my windows will just sit there greyed out)23:25
erUSULgoltoof: do not think so. you can try both and benchmark23:25
MagicJerUSUL - it tells me I need to chose - i tried the most recent - it installed - still get gcc error asm/io.h - no such file or directory23:25
bastidrazorAdeman: that would indicate that the application is locked up.23:25
Ademanbastidrazor: right...23:26

mostybastidrazor, is something killing these "locked up" processes?23:26
intraderbotcity, 'no such file or directory'23:26
bastidrazormosty: killing them? no, finding out why they are locking up is the real question.23:27

NixGeekBernardV: It's an old CRT monitor I had laying around.  I built this computer for christmas and my other computer only supports one monitor.  I'm thinking about getting another 21.5" led, like my current main monitor (well, really it's a tv)23:35
AdemanOne more time: During normal operation I received an ext3 error and ubuntu remounted my root partition as read only.  Typically I just reboot and all is well, however I'd like to resolve this without rebooting. I tried to remount with 'mount -n -o remount,rw /' but I get an error "mount: cannot remount block device /dev/sda6 read-write, is write-protected"  The drive won't be considered write-protected when I reboot.

ZykoticK9awesome_guest, you need to replace newuser and newgroup with actual user/group names.23:47
