[00:00] Chilaquiles: export VARNAME=varvalue in the shell [00:00] neozen, might be fixed in 10.10 but 10.10 broke so many other things i didn't get to find out. and given i have 3 different brands of USB sticks, 4 different ext hard drives that all work if they're the first device plugged in i'm puzzled [00:00] Chilaquiles: will only take effect in that shell [00:00] asdf39: you don't have to if you give the full path to the isofile.. /path/to/iso [00:01] list [00:01] Chilaquiles: (and any shells that shell happens to spawn) [00:02] can I connect to a custom server with the xchat client?

[00:05] I am not an irc oporator [00:05] i don't change the /mnt/disk.Right? [00:05] neozen: correct [00:06] asdf39: the mount point needs to exist, if not it will not work.. you probably need to create /mnt/disk [00:06] Chilaquiles: put export VARIABLE="value" in your profile and it will do what you want [00:06] bastidrazor: it's my first mount [00:07] asdf39: i would sudo mkdir /mnt/disk; sudo chown $USER /mnt/disk .. that will make the directory and give you full permissions for your user [00:07] err. Im having a problem installing Steam through wine. It comes up with a dialogue that says: The file '/tmp/steaminstall.msi' is not marked as executable... [00:07] anyone know how to allow it to run? [00:07] neozen: there is no add button nore do I have priviledges to "/connect" [00:07] hey guys, long time no see [00:07] chooks, right click and checkmark 'allow executables' [00:07] Darkenvy: sure you're in xchat? [00:07] yes [00:08] asdf39: honestly.. making a directory in /media would allow you to have it displayed on your desktop and clickable.

[00:08] 0.26.1 [00:08] what is better to install steam with? playonlinux or wine? thanks [00:08] Darkenvy: xchat, and xchat-gnome.. are quite a bit different feature wise [00:08] kay: playonlinux installs wine [00:08] ok, so I'm looking for opinions on the best virtualization solution, performance wise. [00:08] asdf39: right, an iso has to be mounted to an empty directory. [00:09] oh thanks! [00:09] kay: install playonlinux anyways and see if it helps you out. either wya you get wine [00:09] IanWizard: virtualbox or vmware.. doesn't matter, if your computer meets the specs, they both run well [00:09] Darkenvy: 0.26.1..... um.... on 10.04 and version seems to be 2.8.6 [00:09] vmware = boss [00:09] Darkenvy: if that's xchat.... thats a seriously OLD xchat [00:09] neozen: he's using xchat-gnome thats different from xchat [00:09] hmmm I installed this from the repo.... synaptic [00:09] KM0201: ah....... sonofa.. [00:09] KM0201, yes, but what about things like QEMU/KVM? [00:10] IanWizard: i ave no real experience w/ them, but my guess is, they perform similarly t the other two. [00:10] KM0201: imho... if you fork something... it shouldn't have the same name [00:10] neozen: so "sudo apt-get install xchat"? [00:10] Darkenvy: sure [00:10] neozen: i asked about that in #xchat the other day... they said xchat-withoutallthefeatures didn't have the same ring to it [00:10] lol [00:10] Darkenvy: never used xchat-gnome so sorry for my confusion [00:11] !xchat | Darkenvy [00:11] yea I blame synaptic package manager [00:11] !info xchat [00:11] xchat (source: xchat): IRC client for X similar to AmIRC.

[00:33] hi, I'm having trouble with the Network Manager. All the sudden it's not connecting to the wirless network that it was yesterday. [00:33] Version 0.8.1 [00:33] Datz: what's changed between then and now? [00:33] neozen: the only thing, it's not working now [00:33] neozen, he's already identified his problem. he's using NetworkManager [00:34] Datz: install any updates... upgraded your kernel... etc [00:34] I'm on 10.10 [00:34] kreign: oh its not that bad [00:34] done that kreign [00:34] neozen, you say apple, I say "yes it is" :P [00:34] <_misha_> im not in network manager - im in a terminal [00:34] _misha_, on the clients? [00:35] how can I bring the wireless icon back into my panel_ [00:35] _misha_, are you using network manager? [00:35] hello, i want to use uuidgen , but not to generate ext4 or swap labels , i want to generate ntfs type label ( that are shorter ) [00:35] ok.. so what to use other than the network manager? [00:35] Chilaquiles: in stock ubuntu: run nm-applet & in a terminal [00:35] I accidentally deleted my wireless icon in my panel how can I bring the wireless icon back into my panel? [00:35] Datz, the traditional way to do networks is with /etc/network/interfaces (edit it and restart networking via /etc/init.d/networking) [00:36] Hi all! my computer won't boot. I interrupted the hibernation [00:36] and now it won't boot [00:36] Datz, it's a mature and featureful way to do it, but it's also not too tuned for wireless, IIRC. [00:36] kreign: I guess I'll take a look [00:36] neozer: it says that is already running [00:36] kreign i pasted it [00:36] Guest5749, now i'll need a link to the paste, obviously. [00:36] Chilaquiles: killall nm-applet && nm-applet [00:36] Datz, if your computer doesn't move, using the 'traditional' method is probably not a bad idea. [00:36] rendero: http://www.guidgenerator.com/ [00:37] kreign: that'd be the key thing [00:37] kreign: on a laptop..... [00:37] Chilaquiles: i think you'd want to add notification area, back to your panel (thats where the networking applet is stored) [00:37] kreign: it's a laptop [00:37] KM0201: yeah... that too :P [00:37] http://pastie.org/1458479 [00:37] I'm attempting to connect tirelessly [00:37] wirelessly* [00:37] also tirelessly [00:37] neozen: everything you said might work, but i don't think so. [00:38] KM0201: you're probably right [00:38] .. [00:38] KM0201: yeah, thats what I wanted thanks! [00:38] Datz, my wife has a laptop. it sits on the kitchen table and doesn't move. [00:38] so.. I'd think there'd be some trouble shooting procedure. Or a way to get things working... It's ubuntu afterall :P [00:38] I am trying to move a folder into another that has only root permissions, how can I move the folder as root? [00:38] all that nm-applet stuff, is really pre 10.04, when the networking applet wasn't part of notification area [00:38] kreign: well, I don't see any previous config in interfaces for wirless connection [00:39] lol [00:39] KM0201: what can I say......

[01:17] is any1 free to help me with something probably easy? [01:18] !ask | nubuntu [01:18] nubuntu: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [01:18] what you need? [01:18] what's the driver i should be installing if i had a graphics card? :/ [01:19] what graphic card? [01:19] an intel graphics card, sorry. hehe [01:19] remember model? [01:20] frensi: It's application dependent, but assuming basic usage no (I have a 64-bit processor but installed 32-bit edition of Ubuntu) [01:20] Im currently booting lubuntu from my USB flash drive. I want to install it until my friend can get me an xp pro disc. when he gets it to me, how would i go about disinstalling lubuntu? [01:21] nubuntu: delete the partitions and reformat [01:21] Trying to move a folder, is there anything wrong with this path? home/File System/usr/lib/Oolite/AddOns [01:21] can anyone tell me why icannot play a DVD, ive downloaded all the restricted extras, libdvd, and vlc, i cant normally get any dvd to play and if it does play its very pixely and sometime just a green screen [01:22] retail dvd? [01:22] yes [01:22] you must install some css thing [01:22] enable it [01:22] isnt that the libdvd package? [01:22] hold on [01:22] let me search [01:22] aeon-ltd: it would be really easy? [01:22] Boatingbum23, medibuntu w32 codecs [01:22] nubuntu: if you don't have anything worth saving [01:23] !dvd | Boatingbum23 [01:23] Boatingbum23: Ubuntu's default installation and repositories do not include packages needed to play commercial DVDs for legal reasons. For information on adding them, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs | For information on the legalities involved, see the "DVD" section of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [01:23] Boatingbum23, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu [01:24] thank you everyone, much appreciated [01:24] aeon-ltd: i don't. i'm going to go ahead and do it. Also, can you tell me why 80% of the time when i download something and click on it to open, it doesn't and just clones itself on my downloads bar? [01:25] this is a "how do I use linux" question rather than ubuntu specific - I would like to make some videos explaining maths, basicly a slide show and a voiceover. I was wondering what tools you would use for that? [01:25] Boatingbum23, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs [01:26] where's ubuntu's hardware information? [01:26] dsdeiz: lspci can usually give some useful info [01:26] dsdeiz: cat /proc/* [01:27] dsdeiz: you can use varius comandline tools to get useful information but if your looking for an equivilent of windows file manager... [01:27] *device manager [01:27] It worked, thanks again [01:27] yeah, i did lspci | grep -i vga and it says "Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller" [01:28] nubuntu: its trying to open itself in a web browser perhaps? [01:28] i'm not sure what driver to install since when i go to "Monitors" it can't detect my monitor [01:28] dsdeiz: xorg shouldn't need a config these days [01:29] hi again [01:29] hi, I am looking tool for drawing network diagram. could you give me some point? [01:29] tim_: hm, so no drivers to install? [01:30] dsdeiz: that's not entirely true [01:30] dsdeiz: if you look at the packages avialable for xorg there are drivers specific to ati or nvidia [01:30] maybe intel also [01:30] aeon-ltd: i don't think so. it will do that if I click on it or otherwise open itself in this really useless program called xarchiver or something where it sits and I can't open it from there either. It gives me the option to extract, but Ive done it countless times to no change. any suggestions? [01:30] but a lot of stuff is already in the kernel or installed with xorg by default [01:30] tim_: do i just try them one by one? [01:31] dsdeiz: its a long time since I've fiddled with this, give me a mo to look [01:31] hi!! I'm still trying to research video cards for a new build. I would really appreciate your suggestions! [01:31] i can't get into the generic config in grub, i need to choose the 2nd option and choose low graphics for ubuntu to start [01:31] tim_: oh, sure thang [01:31] Aristocles, well you have the choice of course of Intel..nvidia..and ati [01:31] ok, so if you look in your package manager you probably already have [01:32] xserver-xorg-video-intel installed [01:32] and if you look in your xorg log which is in /var/log, you can see it being used (hopefuly) [01:32] Aristocles, I am partial to nvidia but many are not... the ati drivers are open source now and should work with most of the cards but I am not familiar enough with ati to speak about that [01:32] next thing is to test if 3D acceleration is working for you, but someone else will have to say how to do that [01:32] coz_, thanks. what card are you using? [01:33] hm sec. lemme check [01:33] Aristocles, well on this system an old 7300gt and its old :) [01:34] dsdeiz: I think if you install a package called mesa-utils, and run a tool called glxgears you can see if everythings working nicely [01:34] Aristocles, I guess it depends on what you are expecting to do on your system... play games 3d exceleration...compiz etc [01:34] but honestly, this stuff mostly plug and plays these days [01:34] nubuntu: its unarchive looping, you need to unarchive it completely, eg. tar -xzvf abcd.tar.gz ; [01:35] coz_, only an occasional game, but compiz, 3d, photo editing, possibly video, movies. [01:35] aeon-ltd how do I unarchive it completely exactly? [01:36] I'm just unsure of the state of things right now. lol [01:36] tim_: gotcha, will install that. xserver-xorg-video-intel is installed, i also see the word intel in /var/log/Xorg.1.log and /var/log/Xorg.failsafe.log [01:36] Aristocles, ok then any of the current cards nvidia ati or even intel should work fine... i would guess ,,, like any system... what you can afford is going to play a major part in what you put into the system [01:36] dsdeiz: I'd pretty much assume it's fine at this point, unless something goes wrong [01:37] Aristocles, I think this is still up to date Compiz requires at least a Radeon 7000 (or M6). For 7000 to HD4xxx series cards, you can use the open source "radeon" driver. HD2xxx and later series cards are also supported by the proprietary "fglrx" driver. [01:37] gotcha, i'll just finish upgrading and install the mesa stuff [01:37] Aristocles, to be complete in this search I would scoot over to #radeon channel for at disucusion and #nvidia channel for nvidia [01:38] Aristocles, see what they suggest within your price range [01:38] coz_, thanks so much. [01:38] is it possible to put an ssh'ed folder into fstab? [01:38] Aristocles, no problem let me know which you decide on :) [01:38] nubuntu: its in the example i gave [01:38] coz_, will do! [01:39] nubuntu: if the extension is the same [01:40] aeon-ltd: um ok thanks [01:40] why is wicked74's linux for jornada so big? [01:43] on 10.04 whenever I am inserting any CD in the cd rom, I am always getting a prompt which says you have inserted a blank cd.. but the cd is not at all a blank one and contains data.. this is happening to almost every cd that I am inserting. Any help ? [01:45] vivekg, seems to me that your drive is broken [01:46] I would try re-formating the drive, to see if it's an error through initial set-up. [01:46] sam-_-: but when I insert dvds its working.. [01:46] of the os [01:47] do you select the software to use to open the cd with before opening the cd contents? [01:47] If someone says that this is in fstab: "//192.168.1.10/share /mnt/myshare ......" does that mean that it's at /share on the network drive, or something like /usr/share? [01:47] vivekg, strange but still i would suspect an issue with the hardware [01:48] zaery, looks like a windows share [01:50] sam-_-, then what if i wanted to mount the folder "/home/zaery/share" on the IP "192.168.1.45" onto the point /mnt/share on my laptop, would i do "//192.168.1.45/home/zaery/share /mnt/share ....."? [01:50] vivekg: Im betting the issue is with the hardware like sam said, but I would try everything possible before jumping to drastic measures such as replacing the hardware. [01:50] Is there anyway to play my iTunes purchased movies on my ubuntu system? [01:51] sam-_-, yayoj1: yeah guys seems to be the option.. Thank you for your help. [01:51] vivekg: do a hardware test and see if the cd-rom is picked up [01:51] How do I find out (if a program exists) what files are unburnable? meaning they say error on every dvd I try to put them on. [01:51] I get an error when doing a sudo-get install proftpd /var/lib/dpkg/info/ftpd.prerm: 4: update-inetd: not found [01:51] grep: /etc/inetd.conf: No such file or directory [01:51] zaery, if your samba is configured correctly it might work. but you really shouldn't share / via samba [01:51] anyone have any ideas? [01:52] redv: leave out what follows the proftd [01:52] sam-_-, there's no samba involved, i'm just naming the folders "share" [01:52] redv: change location during installation process [01:52] zaery, so how do you do it? via nfs? [01:53] I did a "sudo apt-get install proftpd" and I want to run it in daemon mode, after the 'proftpd' is my error message [01:54] sam-_-, normally, i hit ctrl+L in nautilus and type "sftp://zaery@192.168.1.45/" but i want it to be mounted automatically [01:54] so via ssh [01:54] yup [01:54] you will have to install sshfs if you haven't already [01:54] How do I download files from bazaar.launchpad.net? [01:55] redv, is update-inetd installed? [01:56] How do I find out (if a program exists) what files are unburnable? meaning they say error on every dvd I try to put them on. [01:56] Is there anyway to play my iTunes purchased movies on my ubuntu system? [01:57] Boatingbum23, are they .mov files? [01:57] .m4v [01:57] Boatingbum23, they should play fine.... install vlc [01:57] redv: sorry can't be of more help, don't know why the error is coming up personally I think gFTP is a better app for the services of proftd. [01:57] theyre protected i believe since i bought themfrom the itunes store [01:57] Hey can I get a channel for parts/CPU cooling support? [01:58] Darkenvy, let me check the channel list for hardware ...hold on [01:58] im a little irc rusty, channel list command? [01:58] hello, something happen to my ubuntu system. I am using the 9.10 and i want to study php. But when i want to install phpmyadmin , i can't install it . The problem is as followed: Depends: php5-common (= 5.2.10.dfsg.1-2ubuntu6) but 5.2.10.dfsg.1-2ubuntu6.4 is to be installed . How to update php5-common? [01:58] Darkenvy, are you on xchat? [01:58] yes [01:59] Boatingbum23, i don't believe it's possible easily. [01:59] alright thanks anyway [01:59] who can help me solve the problem? [01:59] Darkenvy, under the "Server" menu "list of channels" [01:59] Boatingbum23, only solution is via virtualization [01:59] Darkenvy, then type in the "Find" field [01:59] ssbpls: sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin [01:59] i'm having a bit of trouble with sed - i keep getting an "unterminated s command" error, although i think i've escaped everything that should be escaped [01:59] the problem as the same! [02:00] ssbpls: check and see which version of php you have installed.. then look in aptitude or synaptic for different versions available.. uninstall the wrong one and install the one you need. [02:00] yeah,i dont wanna do virtualization, id rather just boot into my windows 7 partition, it would just be much easier to play them here [02:01] any was install linux mint debian' [02:01] ssbpls, you can force the version. or you need to downgrade php5-common [02:01] i have installed php5 [02:02] ssbpls, easiest with synaptic. select the package then press ctrl+e then select the version [02:03] Boatingbum23, it's apple. they tend to ignore anything but themselves. [02:03] yeah ive noticed, thats why i dont own one [02:04] how do i strip the DRM? [02:04] Boatingbum23: there are apps that will remove fairplay DRM from iTunes music store purchaes [02:04] Boatingbum23, dunno if you can currently. but wasn't there sth. by dvdjohn back in the day? [02:04] but keep in mind that doing so is technically illegal as it violates the terms of service you agreed to when you signed up for an iTMS account [02:05] hello all [02:05] thats true [02:06] hello someone talk spanish? [02:06] there is a ubuntu spanish channel [02:06] looking for a way to xirc text to speech, anyone out there listening to IRC like me...

[02:07] roberto_: type /join #ubuntu-es [02:07] ok [02:08] impecabl ya entre [02:08] Hi there [02:08] sam-_-: I have followed your advice, but one new problem happed as followed: E: I wasn't able to locate file for the php5-common package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package. [02:08] E: Unable to lock the download directory [02:08] Anybody knows what that new distro based on ubuntu, but faster than ubuntu is named? [02:08] I forgot it xD [02:08] how to fix it ? [02:08] Alan502: xubuntu is a bit faster? [02:08] PUTOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS [02:08] knoppix: no escribas todo en mayusculas, va contra las normas.

[02:10] ssbpls, also you have to launch synaptic with gksu [02:10] tim_, is there a service manager in ubuntu?

[02:12] sam-_-:OK, this time i have solved the problem! thankx [02:12] Alan502: you can ge to a lot of services using the 'services' command, e.g. services --status-all as root [02:13] hello [02:13] tim_, ok, thanks [02:13] Alan502: or edit rc.conf, but... to tell the truth I'm not a big ubuntu user so I couldn't really say. If it were me, I'd install a very minimal ubuntu at install time, then just bring in the dependencies for a light desktop like xfce [02:15] hello. After I bought my new monitor, I got this: http://imm.io/media/38/38go.png . Can I solve it somehow(tray)? [02:15] In order to install minimal ubuntu, do I simply copy-paste files?

[02:23] sam-_-: yes... it downloads fine in firefox... so why is aptitude update disliking it? [02:26] hanasaki, i guess a sudo apt-get update gives the same error? [02:27] sam-_-: yes. what are you thinking? [02:27] hanasaki: maybe try another mirror site for your repository [02:27] sacarlson: how do I set that? [02:27] How do I find out (if a program exists) what files are unburnable? meaning they say error on every dvd I try to put them on. [02:27] hanasaki: in synaptic?

[02:39] Affix, good thing... I am not sure who here has rights on the wiki to change it... [02:39] TornadoChas3r: your the second one I seen that had this problem the last guy has 1.2 gig left and still could touch a file in that mount [02:40] It just started yesterday, and of course I made things alot worse by running an update, which was a kernel update that failed [02:40] coz_, I will write an email to webmaster@ubuntu.com hopefully it will find its way :) [02:40] now im trying to fix it, but im back at square one with this hard drive space problem [02:40] Affix, there you go ...that sounds reasonable :) [02:40] why isnt anybody replying on it :/ [02:40] TornadoChas3r: can you pastebin your mount and fdisk -l ? [02:41] mrchinosun, have you tried the #winehq channel ? they may have more info on this [02:41] Im using a livecd atm, want me to chroot then run that or not [02:41] I can no longer boot into my install becuase of the failed update [02:41] TornadoChas3r: don't need chroot for fdisk -l [02:42] mrchinosun, if your trying to run a .net application you don't need wine. [02:42] o, oops just wanted to make sure ill get the right ouput since im on a live cd [02:42] im tryna run a windows program [02:42] TornadoChas3r: that should be enuf as long as you know what partition you used that said it was full [02:42] the program wont open [02:42] mrchinosun, depends there are different kinds of exe [02:43] !wine mrchinosun [02:43] http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/wD7nbC8K [02:43] mrchinosun, name of the program?

Some windows apps need .Net Framework installed on the PC. Installing .Net Framework via wine seems to be impossible so the wine guys are suggesting you install Mono for Windows. http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html has the Windows installer. [02:46] i really need some help .. [02:46] one drive is just a mirror [02:47] KM0201, xangua, thanks [02:47] semitones: ?

[02:49] RealEyes: remove the old kernels in synaptic [02:49] hanasaki: what software source is that? synaptic? [02:49] Whenever I update, grub2 adds the older OS version on the screen too [02:49] then run sudo update-grub2 [02:50] sacarlson: the one in the picture on the link you sent : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu [02:50] RealEyes: you can use Janitor [02:50] can some one help me with my Wifi plz [02:50] singingBird: sometimes.. i've never had luck w/ it removing old kernels [02:50] dpkg --get-selections|grep linux ---the first step [02:50] flazzid: which gnome-terminal [02:50] flazzid, what do you mean? [02:50] how do you use Janitor? [02:50] to see how many kernels currently [02:50] is there a remote desktop client / server in ubuntu - like teaviewer for win [02:50] hanasaki: I'm not sure what your looking for, that may be looking at a picture of an older version of synaptic [02:51] yogione, teamviewer is for linux as well. also there is rdp and vnc [02:51] yogione: rdesktop [02:51] ok. thanks [02:51] sudo apt-get remove linux-headers-XXXXX.generic ---to remove some of them [02:51] RealEyes: system/admin/computer janitor, but it rarely lists old kernels [02:51] bluesky: NOT LINUX-HEADERS.... linux-image [02:52] year [02:52] sacarlson: http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/partner/binary-amd64/Packages.bz <= NOT FOUND and that is the main server [02:52] i need to update my grub2 splash screen to get rid of the older updates and keep the new ones [02:52] hanasaki: there are many servers [02:52] hanasaki: pick another one [02:52] Janitor has nothing in it. [02:53] rsouthard : im not sure to be honest [02:53] sam: im trying to patch my ath5k driver and this tutorial says to put the patch in the same file as the terminal [02:53] hanasaki, how about adding a 2 at the end of then line? [02:53] hanasaki: i usually just remove that repo [02:53] hanasaki, so that it read bz2 [02:53] hanasaki: try japan it works good when usa is backing up stuf [02:54] flazzid, why do you want to patch the ath5k driver? [02:54] flazzid:....No, I mean type 'which gnome-terminal' in your terminal will tell you where your terminal is installed. [02:55] How can I raise the open file descriptors in ubuntu 10.10?

[02:57] flazzid, k. i don't understand the tutorial your referencing. if you can provide a link maybe i/we can figure it out [02:57] I am trying to install Ubuntu for the first time on a desktop without an OS. I created a disk image, ran it in the computer, and started the install -- it then got stuck at the create a user name page. The status bar said Ready when you are, but it wouldn't allow me to go forward. The only thing I could do was click "suspend" at the top of the page. Now I can't boot up the computer at all. What can I do??? [02:57] sama-_- : its http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1155599 [02:58] TornadoChas3r, maybe there is a quota set [02:58] TornadoChas3r: still same problem from last night? [02:58] red color check [02:58] err green [02:58] yes, the false "disk is full" problem [02:59] TornadoChas3r: im guessing that the recovery image or different kernel image did NOT help? [02:59] can you see green text? [02:59] vbabiy_, sysctl i guess [02:59] sacarlson: hmm looks like it may be an issue with privoxy blocking something [03:00] im not sure to be honest, but its panicing now with a slightly different error that last night [03:00] hanasaki: privoxy? I'll have to look that up [03:00] than* [03:00] vbabiy_, sysctl -a|grep fs |less one of those [03:00] sacarlson: it is a webpage filter / blocker of ads [03:00] sacarlson: I squid + dansguardian + privoxy [03:01] Can someone help me? I know I'm a lame novice, but I'd like to try this program out!!! [03:01] do any ubuntu repositories use ipv6? [03:01] TornadoChas3r: whats the issue now? im thinking that the install aborted half way through and corrupted the OS, the only chance you may have to a re-install is to run some apt-get and force re-install every package even if its already installed. like everything to the latest version but it probably wont let you because of disk full huh [03:02] well this hard drive issue was happening before i ran the updates [03:02] look for some repair/rebuild or re-install just the OS or rescue disk and try to rebuild [03:02] hanasaki: don't know why it would be configured to filter a ubuntu site [03:03] its amazing the bad false + things that happen at times in an effort to keep out the @#@$@# garbage [03:03] Ill give it a try, but i cant even write to the hard drive from the live cd [03:03] firsttimeubuntu, what do you mean you can't boot up? === ubuntu is now known as speedhog [03:04] firsttimeubuntu, what are you trying to do? [03:04] I think I got it now ... the setup process stalled before, but I'll run the setup again. === speedhog is now known as snookie1 [03:04] TornadoChas3r, what do you mean you can't write to it? i've never had that happen. [03:04] TornadoChas3r: what happens from the live cd you fsck -y the device? [03:04] TornadoChas3r: so the live cd boot also see's that disk a full and can't touch a file in it? [03:04] firsttimeubuntu: the username must be in lower case [03:05] thank you! There was no prompt for that. [03:05] ya its doing the same thing, i cant even save a text file to the disk [03:05] TornadoChas3r: what happens from the live cd you fsck -y the device? [03:05] i did it a bit ago, let me send the output [03:06] hold on ill run it again [03:06] np [03:06] TornadoChas3r: can you also send the output of /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab [03:06] TornadoChas3r: sta7ic: I'm with sta7ic: you should do an fsck on that disk , make sure you umount if first [03:07] ya i did that a bit ago, did not look like it found any issues but ill run it again [03:07] holdon [03:07] hold on* [03:08] /dev/cciss/c0d0p1: clean, 2129920/2129920 files, 3024605/8513024 blocks [03:09] hey you guys. i was messing around with file sharing and samba and now i have a microsoft-ds port 445 open....how do i shutdown samba? or whatever is causing it? i also have a netbios port open 139/tcp open netbios-ssn [03:09] 445/tcp open microsoft-ds [03:09] TornadoChas3r: i know last night it was complaining about not being about to mount /dev/pts, what does /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab say and anything special in /var/log/messages? [03:09] omfg im about to say screw this patch and go back to brute forcing from my gpu [03:09] hanasaki: maybe that list of theres is configured for windows and microsoft wouldn't want us to be able to see our update servers now would they [03:09] sacarlson: haha ;) [03:10] how do i kill samba [03:10] ?

Your screen, graphics card, and input device are...(i forget the rest)" [03:12] cannonfodder: not sure what you mean by that. But do you just want to uninstall samba so it does not start again? [03:12] umm ok [03:13] cannonfodder: I'm asking what you want to do. If you want to uninstall it, then do so using synaptic. If you just want to stop it right now, « sudo service samba stop » [03:13] sina3: under system tools or whatever, open 'restricted drivers' your video card drivers probably arent using the right ones because its not GPL [03:13] thanks [03:13] sta7ic, how do i get there when i cannot access ubuntu [03:13] What do I need to change to allow git to work? Would messing stuff in the passwd file mess it up? [03:14] say i want to put "sudo adduser your-username fuse" in a shell script, how would i get the user's name, rather than manually changing it for each user i want to use the script on? [03:14] all i can get is the terminal [03:14] Sina3: it doesnt let you into X windows or not the console either [03:14] JasonSN: huh? git works as soon as you install it... [03:14] nope. [03:14] It is installed [03:14] Sina3: hmm..do you know what video card you have? you can run it cmd line [03:14] oh wait [03:14] if there a music streamer for ubuntu that is anything like the windows shoutcast [03:14] JasonSN: then you need to be more specific about what your issue is [03:14] All I did was modify passwd file and now it does not work [03:14] it does let me in the x window [03:14] but it doesnt work to well. [03:14] I get remote host closed the connection and fatal error [03:14] when i select things, they dont work [03:15] JasonSN: modify /how/? How are you trying to make it work?

[03:16] sorry [03:17] Sina3: yes its going to suck until you get the proper video card drivers, best thing to do is open a terminal on the gui and try to launch the 'restricted drivers' gui [03:17] and run that [03:17] let me find the path for u [03:17] Nevermind!

[03:18] zaery you could also use a variable, like 'sudo adduser $1 fuse' then when you execute your script you could do 'useradd.sh newusername' [03:18] zaery: #bash can help you with bash questions [03:18] anyone feel like helping someone new to linux, its wine related? [03:18] Sina3: /usr/bin/jockey-gtk [03:18] it looks like $USER will do the trick [03:18] Da|Mummy: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) [03:19] Not sure if the pastebin link got lost in the chat, just incase - http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/UaN98wHN those are the fstab and mstab files [03:19] and when i do this [03:19] what happens?

[03:21] jrib: so the terminal displays the shell. Is that correct? [03:21] charlesno: yeah [03:21] so /usr/bin/jockey-gtk in the terminal, will load up a gui? [03:21] that i can use to fix this. [03:21] hello, i just tried ubuntu for the first time, and this acer laptop seems to like it, except my wireless says device not ready (firmware missing), can i fix , and how? :) [03:22] if your lucky sina3 yes [03:22] (sorry for using enter again) === jsurfer_ is now known as jsurfer [03:22] !appdb [03:22] The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help [03:22] jrib: thanks.

[03:24] qubodup: ok so create a shortcut to use the same exact parameters [03:24] distortion: you need to read the documentation and ask a specific question if it still dosen't help you [03:24] i did read that page [03:24] sta7ic: I need it to work like it worked before [03:24] its all like getting started with ubuntu and wifi [03:24] (it auto-mounted before) [03:24] it is irrelevenrt [03:24] My fstab looks like this: http://paste.debian.net/104590 [03:24] qubodup: what happened? did u update or something whats the error [03:25] ill go some where else FUCK U ALL IN THE ASS [03:25] but there is no sdb in /dev [03:25] haha [03:25] sta7ic: I think I did nothing but some updates [03:25] sam-_-, thnaks [03:25] yah that always seems to break a working config [03:25] I suspect that fstab is broken. does anybody know of a correct fix?

[03:28] I thought it just locked down certain directorys if they reached quota [03:29] Sina3: /usr/bin/jockey-gtk or ./usr/bin/jockey-gtk [03:29] sam-_-, Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [03:29] sam-_-, http://pastebin.com/h0FvkXbZ [03:29] bluezone, so why do you use ndiswrapper? [03:29] because i had extremely slow speed on wifi [03:29] compared to windows [03:30] the drivers were at fault, i ran tests === OffbeatA1am is now known as OffbeatAdam [03:30] to learn and I subscribe to the mailing list where I learn about what is fixed and sometimes don't want to wait. That is why I moved to maverick, though didn't really want to. Learning to compile is a long term solution [03:31] TornadoChas3r: that's my best guess it must be the quota thing, did you do a fsck on the disk? [03:31] jrib, that was for you [03:31] !broadcom > kevin_ [03:31] kevin_, please see my private message [03:31] !compile > quietone [03:31] quietone, please see my private message [03:31] is it possible to run a different version of ubuntu from virtualbox on ubuntu?

[03:37] is there any way to grub2 see an extended partition( with XP) ??? [03:37] OrangePeel, then they are corrupt i would think. [03:37] OrangePeel, or file name / path is too long.

[03:47] elik: what does 'additional drivers' come back with [03:47] bastidrazor, but he is a mummy lol [03:47] systemg33k: ~/.wine [03:48] im just here for the chicks [03:48] on freenode? lol [03:48] and trying to get someone to help me, as im kinda new to linux a well and am having some trouble with wine [03:48] Da|Mummy: seg fault? [03:48] When I use apt-get install package I get this error http://mibpaste.com/tSLOLl [03:48] sam-_-, any ideas? i wanted to sumbit a bug report but, arg, you know how it is lol [03:49] bastidrazor, i want the folder for Program Files that shows up under the menu Applications it's not the normal Program Files. Where is that located? [03:49] sta7ic: yeah, I remember checking that. There was nothing available [03:49] eric1: are you running from a USB? [03:49] TornadoChas3r seems to be getting a simular error to eric1 === patrick is now known as Guest63921 [03:50] I uninstalled something and still shows under Applications>Wine>Program Files. How do I get rid of it? [03:50] eric1 [03:50] Thats the same error i was getting [03:50] systemg33k, if your looking for the wine program files its in /home/(you)/.wine/drive_c/Program files [03:50] good am to all [03:50] bluezone, don't know. try a different kernel. http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ [03:50] systemg33k: right click Applications > Edit Menu ..you can remove things there. [03:50] bluezone, sorry not program files but Programs folder [03:50] "No space left on device" [03:50] bastidrazor, ok i'll try that [03:50] systemg33k, Did you use "Control Panel" through Wine? [03:50] elik, did you try different kernel versions? [03:50] sam-_-, is this a flip a coin decision? lol [03:51] YankDownUnder, no but seems to be removed. All I need is a restart i believe [03:51] Da|Mummy, have you tried the Wine forums? http://forum.winehq.org [03:51] TornadoChas3r: what does quotacheck -vug /dev/... give you? [03:51] bluezone, you are on 10.10? then try this one: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.36-maverick/ [03:51] can anybody help me how to run my ultimate bot on ubuntu? [03:52] sam-_-: nope [03:52] Guest63921: eggdrop? [03:52] elik, might be worth a try. http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ [03:53] sacarlson do you want me to be chrooted when i run that, im running off the LiveCd at the moment [03:53] sta7ic: eggdrop? [03:53] sam-_-: Well, the quirck thing sounds like a promising solution, but I can't understand why it doesn't work [03:53] sam-_-, how do i go about running this, i386 one.deb ? [03:53] Guest63921, Eggdrop is a bot. [03:53] TornadoChas3r: i'm not sure that's required, I would try without chroot first [03:54] bastidrazor: I don't think I'm running from a USB [03:54] elik, me neither. maybe it was for different version of the intel driver. [03:54] Guest63921: rtfm [03:54] TornadoChas3r: I'm reading this http://pig.made-it.com/quota.html [03:54] YankDownUnder: does it work with nimbuzz chatroom? [03:54] bluezone, depends which version of ubuntu your running. [03:54] 10.10 [03:54] if you pay me, ill set up a eggdrop for you [03:54] bluezone, x86 or 64-bit= [03:54] ae [03:54] ae [03:54] hey user_ [03:54] ae [03:55] user_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:55] Guest63921, Strange question to be asking in the Ubuntu channel mate. [03:55] sta7ic: that behavior is not welcomed here. If you don't want to help, just don't [03:55] ad [03:55] sta7ic: ouchhhh! don't have money [03:55] ill help people who need it, not people who want bots =P ok next [03:55] bluezone, you can find out with uname -a [03:55] sam-_-: xorg.conf generated by Xorg -configure is funky too, has all duplicated [03:56] does ubuntu have a make.conf file or something simular to it? [03:56] make.conf => for...um....what? [03:56] The-Kernel: for what? the kernel? kickstart? [03:56] sam-_-: the fact that i915 is being used... [03:56] sam-_-, 686 but it doesnt seem to be at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.36-maverick/ [03:56] sta7ic, for compiling [03:57] The-Kernel: .config i thought for the kernel [03:57] automake, make, makeconfig, headers, yeah - all there. [03:57] how do start a pprogram automatily at a certain time in ubuntu 10.04? [03:57] elik, you mean the i915 kernel module? [03:57] DaGeek247: cron/crontab === Prodego is now known as administrivia [03:57] DaGeek247: regularly, or only once? [03:57] sam-_-: yup [03:57] DaGeek247: or at/atd [03:57] bluezone, it's this one: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.36-maverick/linux-image-2.6.36-020636-generic_2.6.36-020636.201010210905_i386.deb [03:58] sta7ic, YankDownUnder for Gentoo you have a make.conf file, extra flags and USE="" options for when you compile anything, is there something like that in ubuntu? [03:58] Where do I place the public and private keys for putty? I want to connect to Ubuntu from a Win7 machine [03:58] The-Kernel, All the same, yes, same tools, etc etc etc. [03:58] like a schedualed task? [03:58] root@ubuntu:/dev/disk/by-uuid# quotacheck -vug dev/cciss/c0d0p1 [03:58] quotacheck: Cannot stat() given mountpoint dev/cciss/c0d0p1: No such file or directory [03:58] Skipping... [03:58] oops [03:58] The-Kernel: no, since you are installing already-compiled binaries [03:58] TornadoChas3r: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:58] The-Kernel, no. don't think so === aarcane_ is now known as aarcane [03:58] sam-_-, alright thanks, thisll take awhile though, for obvious reasons :) [03:58] The-Kernel: not to my knowledge, gentoo is for building all packages from source, ubuntu is pre compiled binaries, in apt-get u can tell to get the source instead but it wont compile i dont think unless u do it [03:58] sam-_-, i hate driver issues hehe they are so evil [03:59] DaGeek247: that's what we are asking you? Do you want to do something like "every monday at 2am" or "just tomorrow at 3pm and never again" [03:59] Compiling from source: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=323939 [03:59] sta7ic, I'm saying for stuff I do manually compile [03:59] tonight at ten thirty just this once [04:00] can anybody help me how to use wine? [04:00] DaGeek247: use at or just do "sleep whatever; command" [04:00] The-Kernel, Check the link I just posted. Easy as. sudo apt-get install build-essential => then whatever else you want. [04:00] Guest63921, what about it [04:00] The-Kernel: my answer are pretty clear, gentoo the whole os + packagaes are compiled from source execpt a few things to begin with [04:00] TornadoChas3r: I can't find anything about disable quota so I don't know what you have to loose on that disk, but maybe try change fstab to a normal no quota setting like /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1 [04:00] oh, ok. didnt think of that. :p thanks. [04:00] DaGeek247: what jrid said, either sleep or at [04:00] sam-_-: is there no way to know from xorg logs what driver is being used? [04:00] YankDownUnder, no i havent yet, would you recommend evolution (or something else) to a ex-windows user? [04:01] bluezone: i want to play games but i dont know how to open it inside ubuntu [04:01] Guest63921, which game, [04:01] TornadoChas3r: if that works at least you have isolated the problem to quota, maybe quota has nothing to do with it? [04:01] kevin_, It's going to be the closest to Outlook/Outlook Express - GUI and the likes -> my "converted" people use it. [04:01] elik: i remember some x command to spit out bunch of crap...god i hate dealing with X back in the day [04:01] Where do I place the public and private keys for putty? I want to connect to Ubuntu from a Win7 machine? [04:01] sacarlson: its not a quota issue [04:01] elik, sure it's in the logs. it says there which modules it loads [04:02] bluezone: statrategy game called yuri's revenge [04:02] gah [04:02] why is hardware support so bad [04:02] elik, it's the unified intel module for you [04:02] YankDownUnder, thats what I was looking for thanks [04:02] jrib, thx, I got an idea from that page and am making progress [04:02] Guest63921, well first of all make sure you install wine with sudo apt-get install wine and make sure u have red alert 2 installed as well [04:02] Overall, hardware support for any form of linux is statistically better than MS Windows. [04:02] Guest63921, there is not guarantee that it will work though [04:03] dual monitor FAIL, wireless RARELY [04:03] YankDownUnder, ok thanks, google here i come [04:03] sam-_-: looks like it. The driver that was specified by Xorg -configure was simply "intel" [04:03] quietone: all you need to do is « sudo apt-get build-dep evolution » (or whatever the package is called) [04:03] * YankDownUnder stares at two sets of dual monitors [04:03] Guest63921, see the Wine AppDB: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=4242 [04:03] Hmmm.... [04:03] all other parts of linux ubuntu works really great.. but hardware is like 99 [04:03] 1999 [04:04] Guest63921, doesn't seem to work very well: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=4242 you can always try though [04:04] elik, yes. it handles everything from i810 from the pentium 2 days up to the sandybridge graphics [04:04] jrib, I did that yesterday and still got the errors I pasted. [04:04] sam-_-: sam-_- fancy. Just gotta see where that ForceEnablePipeA thing now -_- [04:05] where can I get help with putty? the putty channel is invite only... [04:05] bluezone: i have tried to install red alert 2 inside ubuntu but its always error [04:05] Putty home page? [04:05] meh. wasn't much there.... no help anyway [04:05] randomusr_: putty is so basic, just install putty on windows 7, on ubuntu, run 'apt-get install openssh-server' [04:05] and then on windows 7 ssh into the IP or hostname [04:05] Guest63921, if you have wine installed, well, what does the error say [04:06] sta7ic, I want to know how to set the host to use a .ppk? [04:07] randomusr_: /etc/ssh/sshd_config? [04:07] sam-_-: is there anywhere I can look for that. This issue seems slightly too complex for IRC [04:07] bluezone: it says cannot find zipfile directory [04:07] randomusr_: there are a bunch of tools that come with openssh-server to generate keys/ etc [04:07] Well ill try to disable the quota and see if that helps any [04:08] hello all! For some strange reason, for the past month switching to virtual terminals/root shells at boot all have really really messed up keyboard maps. Like if I type 'abc', I might get the number '1', and strange ASCII boxes. I have no idea what caused it, but it's been like that for a month at least. I'm worried that if I should need to recover my computer. I won't be able to type. What steps can I take to troubleshoot? [04:08] ill try the recoevry console mode once more, but otherwise im out of ideas [04:08] sta7ic, do I need to simply edit that file or is there a command to run to get the host to use the .ppk I have? === listen is now known as Deb-devel [04:08] Guest63921, either a badly scratched cd or you didn't mount your image properly [04:08] i find it strange that a few others are having this problem as well [04:08] sta7ic, I have the keys, just hoping to use them [04:08] elik, don't know about this exact issue. google and hope for the best [04:08] randomusr_: NAME ssh-keygen â authentication key generation, management and conversion [04:09] Guest63921, OR it is not supported by wine [04:09] that might be where to look i do not know [04:09] bluezone: what will i do then? [04:09] * Deb-devel !eval exit [04:09] YankDownUnder, i only have the data, i cannot run outlook express anymore, so evolution site says there is no way to "import" the raw data, i think [04:09] Guest63921, how are you trying to install this [04:09] sam-_-: yeah, google is starting to tell me to stop bugging it with the same qestions :) [04:10] sta7ic, If I have the keys already, do I only need to edit the /etc/ssh/sshd file? [04:10] kevin_, Hang on... [04:10] sam-_-: anyway, thx for helping me [04:10] sam-_-: getting closer by the day [04:10] elik, i wish i did... [04:10] kevin_, Is it a single PST? [04:11] bluezone: i alrready copy it to my filesystem and trying to install it [04:11] YankDownUnder, no, its not outlook, it outlook express data [04:11] gonna use evolution either way, be nice to import [04:11] sam-_-: now I'm starting to doubt about the issue. They refer to crash, I only get screen blank. I can still ssh in [04:12] Guest63921, i don't know if that's what you should do, try googling how to play red alert 2 on ubuntu [04:12] elik: i came across the same issue on a hp laptop and did things left and right... [04:12] is this laptop HP? [04:12] elik, and it doesn't "unblank" again? [04:12] bluezone: what do you mean by that? [04:13] Guest63921, i suggest mounting you image with a loop and installing it like that in wine, make sure that winecfg has "emulate virtual desktop" checked [04:13] elik, what if you switch to a ttyß [04:13] kevin_, Right. Easy peasey. Install Outlook Express using WINE (or Crossover). After you've installed it under WINE, point the "Location of storage data" to where you've got your old data. Restart Oulook Express. After that, you can then export your contacts, and export your "stuff"; another way would be to use Thunderbird to do your import. [04:13] elik, what if you switch to a tty? [04:13] hello [04:13] Anyone know how to fix keyboard mapping in terminal? [04:13] elik: have you tried focusing your search to issues with the specific vendor? is this a HP laptop? [04:13] bluezone: thanks! maybe i should do that [04:14] sam-_-: never comes back again. Not even if I go to a tty [04:14] YankDownUnder, i didnt realize oe could be downloaded [04:14] sam-_-, lol see what i mean, it is still downloading, this is suchh a suacidal moment for me [04:14] elik, tried a sysreq? [04:14] sam-_-: if I just press the lid button, I can see my screen for a split second, but goes blank again [04:14] sam-_-: hum? [04:14] I was copying a video file to a folder I made after putting another video file already in it. I than copied a video file from my desktop into another folder and everything froze (I'm assuming Force Quitting the folder copying) and Erasing the folder I was copying into that already had a video file in it. [04:14] hello [04:14] kevin_, Yeppers mate. === administrivia is now known as Prodego [04:14] elik, alt + sysreq + k [04:15] any human from indonesia?? [04:15] I was copying a video file to a folder I made after putting another video file already in it. I than copied a video file from my desktop into another folder and everything froze (I'm assuming Force Quitting the folder copying) and Erasing the folder I was copying into that already had a video file in it. Where the heck did the folder go? [04:15] sorry for double posting [04:15] sta7ic: nope, not an HP. It's an IBM Thinkpad. So far, I've been looking for my graphic card vendor [04:15] elik, http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/457 [04:15] kevin_, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-348048.html => interesting read. [04:15] sam-_-: what is it supposed to do, so I can test before blanking the screen [04:16] hey i'm trying to install snownews on 10.10 and getting 'Unable to locate package', could anyone give me a hint? [04:16] elik, the one i gave you kills the x server [04:16] ideaprone, it means snownews package does not exist [04:16] sam-_-: let me give that a try [04:16] ideaprone, use the package manager instead and use the search [04:16] how does one deactivate system cache in ram? I dont have enough to be doing that can i keep crashing. [04:17] when I try to connect to ubuntu one, it asks me to find an email with a code in it. I have no such email. I can log in using firefox, but can't connect. what gives? [04:17] nvm I found it [04:17] bluezone- i tried that to no avail [04:18] any thoughts on a different console rss reader? [04:18] The_Explorer, you want to disable swap? [04:18] 54 [04:18] sam-_-, okay it finally finished, linux-image-2.6.36-020636-generic_2.6.36-020636.201010210905_i386.deb, now how do i run this, terminal? [04:18] what's the %h variable in bash? [04:18] bluezone, if you double click doesn't it open gdebi? [04:18] is there any way to get the verification code email resent? [04:19] ideaprone, http://kiza.kcore.de/software/snownews/downloading [04:19] sam-_-: sysreq didn't work [04:19] sam-_-, it starts loading something, and then it gives up [04:19] bluezone, or try right click. then run with gdebi. [04:19] yank- thanks! will check it out [04:19] sam-_-: if I press the button, I can see for a split second that I'm back to the login screen, but the screen still stays blank [04:19] bluezone, in console sudo dpkg -i >package name> [04:20] bluezone, in console sudo dpkg -i [04:20] ideaprone, Seems, however, that it's literally outdated and unsupported in current versions - so you'd be best to try to get the source, or the Debian package of Snownews. [04:20] sam-_-, what lol [04:20] sam-_-, oh nvm [04:20] elik: dont rule out the monitor itself and not just the card [04:21] sta7ic: I had debian and it didn't do that [04:21] elik, what do you mean it doesn't work? it doesn't kill the x server? then your pressing the wrong keys. sysreq always work unless disabled in kernel. [04:21] control+alt+backspace => kills the X server. [04:21] sam-_-: it does kill the x server, but it doesn't come back from its blankness [04:21] elik, ah ok. [04:21] elik, too bad [04:22] YankDownUnder: don't you have to enable that one in xorg.conf [04:22] YankDownUnder, i have ie6setupoe.exe, how do i put in wine? 1st time here [04:22] CONTROL+ALT+F7 might be worth a go... [04:22] sam-_-: if it had only been xorg, going to a tty should have worked [04:22] YankDownUnder, i have been told that this method is deprecated [04:22] no, i want it to use swap more [04:22] sam-_-, okay, it says done, so i assume i restart now? [04:22] elik: yeah, what about power-settings? im sure uve checked already [04:23] kevin_, download the file, right-click, open with WineProgramInstaller [04:23] elik, true [04:23] sta7ic: preventing the screen from blanking (whit a few jump through hoops) didn't help [04:23] The_Explorer, then increase your swap partition / swap file [04:23] I really have this impression that my graphic card gets borked.. something to do with pipes, whatever that is [04:24] elik, What's yer card mate? [04:24] How big is a nice comfy swap file, before its "too much"? [04:24] The_Explorer, or are you looking for sth. like this: sysctl -w vm.swappiness=30 [04:25] sam-_-, so i restart? or must i do something else before [04:25] 1.5 x through to 2 x the size of physical RAM - but depends on the usage of the machine. [04:25] The_Explorer, rly. depends on how much ram you have and what you want to do with your computer. [04:25] YankDownUnder: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device, on my ThinkPag R51 laptop [04:25] "-w"? im unaware of that argument [04:25] YankDownUnder, setup sees as already installed, newer one is already installed? beats me [04:25] ew intel graphics xD [04:25] YankDownUnder: the card name is reported from lspci === cuznt is now known as bewofthe [04:26] bluezone, if you installed it you can restart and it should be an option in the boot menu [04:26] k [04:26] Sam, I am with but 2 gigs ram and i wanna play my starcraft [04:26] elik, I've got that same card in my old Compaq laptop and have no issues with dual monitors - the LCD on the laptop works great with a 24" BenQ [04:26] sam-_-, if i'm not back in 10 it means it, $&@#ed, wish me luck xD [04:26] YankDownUnder: I have been focusing on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Quirks#Intel Driver Quirks as it specifically specify the i855 card [04:26] The_Explorer, from the man page: -w Use this option when you want to change a sysctl setting. [04:26] 64bit ubuntu is killing me :/ [04:26] YankDownUnder, but it is not there when i check [04:27] is there an application that tracks additions to the system besides the obvious, I have an installation script that will add a lot of files but I want to be able to rid them in the future [04:27] The_Explorer, then 2-4 gb of swap should be more than enough [04:27] kevin_, Under /home/yournamehere/.wine/drive_c => check if you've got the program installed there... [04:27] elik: have you tried kernel acpi=off stuff like that? also heres a link that probably wont fix but *crosses fingers u find something* [04:27] http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ATI_Mobility_FireGL_V5200 [04:28] I throw 22G on there, its a big drive. [04:28] The_Explorer, i have 2gb and no swap at all but i don't play games on my laptop [04:28] given it's ati... but I'll give a try [04:28] The_Explorer, sure. doesn't hurt [04:28] sta7ic: didn't mess with ACPI stuff [04:28] although it rings a bell [04:28] YankDownUnder, there is iexplore.exe [04:29] kevin_, Keep lookin mate. [04:29] elik, also a bios update may help [04:29] however, mr. sam-_- ... Im looking at swap history and i see nothing goin in there [04:29] is there an application that tracks additions to the system besides the obvious, I have an installation script that will add a lot of files but I want to be able to rid them in the future??? [04:29] what's swap history? [04:29] sam-_-, in the system monitor [04:29] YankDownUnder, i installed nothing, yet something is there , yet it is not, naw, i am totally lost now [04:29] sam-_-: no offense, but debian > fucking with my bios [04:30] kevin_, Patience is a virtue. [04:31] elik, y. true, true. [04:31] The_Explorer, don't let that bother you [04:31] !language | elik [04:31] elik: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional.

[04:33] this makes no sense [04:33] i really need some help if any one has time thanks [04:33] The_Explorer, this command will show you free ram and swap [04:33] sta7ic: hum, sadly, there seems to be nothing relating to lid close... Disabling the acpi even that blanks on lid close might have helped [04:33] The_Explorer, so you can check if the swap is active [04:33] ive been googleing for 2 hours .. [04:33] ah [04:34] OoO, just ask [04:34] I need help with Ralink 3790 i think the wifi is that [04:34] kevin_, Hang on mate...I'm checking something..

[04:39] wkorked with same user and pass [04:39] sam-_-: yeah that kernel is a commandline based one === root is now known as Guest61942 === Guest61942 is now known as bluezone [04:39] bluezone, hugh?

[04:42] no i didnt, the regular new one [04:42] 2-6 watever, right sam-_- ? [04:42] bluezone, oh you have some restricted drivers installed, right? [04:42] sam-_-: yeah [04:43] YankDownUnder, i deleted internet explorer folder, since there is no other way , and it didnt help, says same thing, aready installed LMAO [04:43] bluezone, yeah. well then it would be a little bit of work to get it working with a gui [04:43] Anyone unable to access windows shares using samba, (getting infinite login prompts)? [04:43] kevin_, Have you read through the link I sent you? [04:43] YankDownUnder, thanks for trying , i gotta give up and sleep [04:43] sam-_-: how many hours we talking? [04:44] Sengoku, set a password on your windows machine or allow guest access [04:44] sam-_-: windows-windows requires no password [04:45] bluezone, depends on you :-) [04:45] sam-_-: i even forgot why i'm doing this now [04:45] and the share settings (win7) say that no password required [04:45] oh yeah those dumb network card drivers [04:45] bluezone, i thought your wifi was too slow [04:45] YankDownUnder, 8 tabs open , dotn rememebr which is yours, none helped anyways [04:45] yeah yeah, ok humm [04:46] sam-_-: alright lets try why not lol [04:46] Sengoku, Go to the perms on the Windows machine, add "anonymous", guest, restart Windows machine. [04:46] YankDownUnder: trying. thanks [04:46] kevin_, Sleep, and try again the next day. [04:46] bluezone, i can't help you there bc. i haven't used restricted drivers in a while [04:46] in the morning i will take wine and playonlinux off and out them back, maybe that will do it [04:47] sta7ic: acpi was a good place to look, but disabling the lid.sh event (moved lid.sh to lid.sh.bak) didn't help [04:47] kevin_, AFter you do so, make sure you delete the .wine and all other residules [04:47] sam-_-: but i don't understand how that would stop me from getting my gui, if i disable my drivers now and restart would it work? [04:47] ok [04:47] sta7ic: I'll try the mailing list tomorrow [04:48] sta7ic, sam-_-, YankDownUnder: thanks for your time [04:48] elik: good luck, np [04:48] bluezone, yes that could work. but you won't (good) have 3d acceleration then [04:48] MOre than welcome. Never give up, never give in. [04:48] sam-_-, YankDownUnder: thanks for your time from me too [04:48] bluezone, yes that could work. but you won't have (good) 3d acceleration then [04:49] sam-_-: a i'll take care of that when i get my gui, i'm allergic to command lines unfourtunetely [04:49] hi [04:49] YankDownUnder: is there anything other than nautilus i can use to view smb shares? [04:50] before i tried to install xampp (web server) in the terminal, i typed "su", but it didn't like my password. (i cannot find any instructions on setting up a user account since i installed ubuntu yesterday.) when you're done laughing, can you point me in a specific direction? thank you [04:50] SUPER user account* [04:51] sam-_-: god i hate intel-.- [04:51] I just installed ubuntu server 10.04, i'm trying to set up a print server. I'm assuming I need to compile a driver for my HP P1006 printer. I followed the instructions at http://foo2xqx.rkkda.com/ .. I installed build-essential and tried to 'make', was told to install dc, installed and i'm getting an error at "zjsdecode.c: In function'decode':" then "zjsdecode.c:153: internal compiler error: [04:51] Aborted [04:51] Sengoku, Yes. Konqueror, Gigolo, smbc, smb4k => to name a few [04:51] BRB, again,fml [04:52] bluezone, intel is hard to avoid in the computing world [04:52] Sengoku, You might also want to double check your /etc/smb.conf => and that you've got like fuse-smb and any other smb based utils installed. [04:52] hello [04:52] help me install conky [04:53] sudo apt-get install conky-all [04:53] I just restored a saved ubuntu image to a new partition on my HD. All went well, but I sized the new partition larger. How do I tell Ubuntu to extend it's filesystem to fill the new partition size? [04:54] madsailor, You should be able to use gparted to take care of that for ya. [04:54] before i tried to install xampp (web server) in the terminal, i typed "su", but it didn't like my password. (i cannot find any instructions on setting up a super user account since i installed ubuntu yesterday.) when you're done laughing, can you point me in a specific direction? thank you [04:55] Yank, won't gparted format over the image I just installed? [04:55] sah: root exists, but is locked by default [04:55] sah, Open a terminal, type: sudo passwd => put in the new su password, then you can su all you wish [04:55] sah: use sudo su, or sudo -i [04:55] okay thank you [04:55] 有没有中文频道？ [04:55] !cn | yukun [04:56] yukun: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道：打字 /join #ubuntu-cn 或者 打字 /join #ubuntu-tw 或者 打字 /join #ubuntu-hk [04:56] thakns [04:56] how much faster is it to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10: using live CD vs. update-manager over the net ?? [04:56] Where is the tex installation in Ubuntu? [04:57] rsvp, My druthers go with "via the net" [04:57] gusg: the texlive metapackage will install the necessary parts [04:57] okay [04:57] gusg: there's a metric ton of texlive-* packages containing fonts, extra macros and all sorts of stuff that are optional [04:57] tesnorpudding, I'd like to install a new document class. [04:57] sam-_-, i seem to have fixed that restricted problem, now time to test [04:57] Jkessler, i doubt you will have to compile anything [04:58] YankDownUnder, are the install options identically given the two alternatives ?? [04:58] gusg: you might check on CTAN to see if it's not packaged already [04:58] it might exist in a texlive-* package, not sure how you'd check though [04:58] rsvp, I've found that doing an in-place "upgrade" via the net gives me the least amount of problems, preserves the most of my customisations. [04:59] tensorpudding: I will look, but there are many packages in CTAN that are not in synaptic, right? [04:59] sam-_-, btw, do i have to do sudo modprobe iwl3945 every time i log on? because it seems i do lol [04:59] presumably yes [04:59] if it's not, you'll have to install by hand === CensoredBiscuit is now known as CB_Desktop [05:00] if im using tor i can setup the whole system to be a proxy right [05:00] bluezone, Um...you shouild be able to just load that in the /etc/modules file.... [05:00] YankDownUnder, perfect answer -- was wondering preserving state. Thanks! [05:00] sam-_-, okay, it works now, my wifi, finally, fml, thanks man [05:00] YankDownUnder, Gparted will change part sizr, I just want to tell a restored image to extend it's filesystem to fill the new partition size [05:00] bluezone, that's pretty strange. you can add it to /etc/modules then you won't have to do it again [05:00] ok [05:00] parting already done [05:01] madsailor, I've had the least problems with that - and without knowing how you're going about restoring images to parts - what tools you're using, simplest answer. [05:02] YankDownUnder, but by the way, which of your personal customizations did the upgrade process mess up ?? [05:02] I used dd to rest the image, but orig image was ~17g new part is 170 [05:02] Jkessler, try installing this: foo2zjs [05:03] Jkessler, should save you some trouble [05:03] rsvp, For "personal machines" => things like wallpapers, audio prefs, compiz prefs, program prefs, emerald prefs, cairo-dock prefs... [05:04] Hey, on Ubuntu Server 10.10., does anyone else have problems installing unrealircd? I'm sure it's just MY error but I screw up with the conf file I believe [05:04] madsailor, which fs? [05:04] madsailor, Right. Last week, I moved an 80gb Reiserfs to a 1tb - used a liveCD with gparted, worked fast, and like a champ. [05:04] Yankdownunder, ext2 [05:05] hey everyone I have a program that has transparency(tilda) and when I startup my computer, a lot of the time Tilda will start before compiz is loaded so it doesn't have transparency. So I have to close tilda and reopen it after compiz has loaded. Does anyone know how to get it so that the programs that require Compiz are loaded after it? [05:05] YankDownUnder, did it mess up the settings for programs at start-up too? [05:05] madsailor, If you're using dd, you should be able to give the params for the "of" [05:05] rsvp, Nah - even kept my Plymouth prefs [05:06] madsailor, I made sure, after resizing the partitions, that I did a Reiser-based fsck to double check the journal - paranoid like that. [05:06] i forgot how to shut the Xserver [05:06] YankDownUnder, thanks again. [05:06] anyone remember? [05:07] bluezone, There is a special button on the back of the toaster in the kitchen for doing Xserver shutdowns - JOKING - you can try CONTROL-ALT-BACKSPACE [05:07] okay i'm going to my kitchen [05:07] lol [05:07] YankDownUnder, I used BS=1024. Restored fine (I'm on it now), but ubuntu only recognizes orig size, not full part size === jsurfer_ is now known as jsurfer [05:07] anyone got any ideas why ddrescue /dev/sda /dev/sdb isn't resulting in a fully cloned copy of sda on sdb after it's finished? [05:08] madsailor, Gparted. :) [05:08] YankDownUnder, did not work [05:08] tehbaut, Not sure how you used it in the first place...what parameters you used, what switches you used - etc etc etc... [05:09] bluezone, CTRL-ALT-F1, login as root, then try: /etc/init.d/gdm restart => wait for a few seconds, then do: CTRL+ALT+F7 [05:10] The "hibernate" option does not always appear. I haven't determined the pattern [05:10] bluezone, Just for your information, you can do: RIGHT-ALT+K+SysReq [05:10] Got compiz working on ubuntu 10.10 but only my bottom bar is opaque, I dont see any options in the settings related to my top bar? [05:11] madsailor, resize2fs [05:12] sam-_-, thanks, looks more like the ticket [05:12] I cant determine what the kernel issue is... 10.04. I want to just shoot to 10.10 [05:12] YankDownUnder, whatcha mean? I gave you the exact command I used (minus the logfile part) [05:13] tehbaut, how do you tell it didn't work? [05:13] ddrescue was showing that the data was copying, so surely it must be on the destination drive... but the 4 individual partitions aren't there [05:13] I started with an unpartitioned destination drive... I read that it didn't need to be partitioned [05:14] tehbaut, did you issue a kernel resync? [05:14] how do I do that? [05:14] er, I mean... no [05:14] whats delete file command in terminal? [05:14] * tehbaut looks up kernel resync to see what it does [05:15] can someone hilight me? I'm testing something [05:15] tehbaut, rebooting is easiest. [05:15] anyone? [05:15] Kernel should resync when you just fire up fdisk [05:15] Can someone help me setup my network? I just want to be able to browse the shared folders on my windows machines. [05:16] Hypoglybetic, you shouldn't need to setup anything then [05:17] sam-_-, well, I get the error "can't mount folder" when i click on "windows network" [05:17] sam-_-, well I had no problems getting the partitions that were copied from another disk to the disk I used as the source here (/dev/sda) to show up (in Disk Utility) without having to reboot [05:17] tehbaut, I'd reckon it's the resync is why you're not seeing the partitions on the drives... [05:17] tehbaut, You can also try doing an fsck on the partitions.... [05:18] Hypoglybetic: It could be a permissions issue? [05:18] hi [05:19] I'm having some problems with hard drive permissions [05:19] I'm trying to delete some files on a different partition in order to repair the system [05:19] but rm keeps saying it's a read only file system [05:19] despite mount showing otherwise [05:19] YankDownUnder, but none of the partitions are showing up on the destination after being copied from the source [05:20] cjac: try sudo rm ? or rm -rf ? [05:20] !google why is ubuntu [05:20] Hypoglybetic, libsmbclient is installed? [05:20] yeah, I'm doing all this as root [05:20] Jkessler, Well, how do I go about fixing that? [05:20] sam-_-, How do I check? I'm a newbie. [05:20] Disk Utility still shows the whole destination drive as being one 1TB of unallocated space [05:20] mrchinosun, no search function on the bot, I'm afraid [05:20] tehbaut, I'll assume you've either rebooted or tried to resync the kernel? [05:21] OS'es should be context centric rather than application centric [05:21] oh haha ok [05:21] gimme a context oriented OS [05:21] hyperbolic: can you browse your windows shares from other windows machines? [05:21] or.. window managers atleast [05:21] yes I can [05:21] Hypoglybetic, dpkg -l libsmbclient [05:21] Jkessler, no problem, all windows 7 btw [05:22] theres no google bot in here [05:22] how do I access a win7 share? [05:22] i am getting this error while compiling acidbot [05:22] /usr/include/stdio.h:651: note: previous declaration of ‘getline’ was here [05:22] Ubuntu Y U NO make TerminatorX work [05:22] any idea? [05:23] mrchinosun, nope, afraid not. [05:23] sam-_-, Yes, it is installed [05:23] is there any page out there that shows all the packages available on ubuntu 10.10 -- now, also is there an rss feed page that shows the new updates available for any package as soon as they become available? [05:23] Well, seems that we'll just have to give up on Ubuntu as it just can't do everything that everyone wants. Shucks. And here I liked the colours. [05:23] Jkessler: it's an HFS+ filesystem I'm trying to modify, if that makes any difference [05:23] I am on an 100Mbps LAN. My LAN speed limits my downloading speed from internet. Please suggest something to solve that issue.. [05:24] is it somehow just not possible to modify? [05:24] sam-_-: humm, well 1) i added sudo modprobe iwl3945 [05:24] HFS+ file systems - if journaling is turn ON, you're going to have permissions issues with 'em. [05:24] sam-_-: but it still doesn't work [05:24] sam-_-: i still have to do it manually every time :) [05:24] cjac: have you tried chmod'ing your directory? [05:25] bluezone, If you added the name of the module in the /etc/modules text config file, and rebooted, you shouild be right [05:25] jon8, packages.ubuntu.com [05:25] yeah, same 'read only file system' error [05:25] bluezone, just the module name. without sudo modprobe [05:25] YankDownUnder: OW the name of the module, as in only iwl3945? [05:25] shadyabhi, if you're running into network limits, there's not a lot you can do. It's hard to saturate even a 100Mbps connection, though... [05:25] hi how are you? [05:25] aaaa i c ic... [05:25] cjac, Use a Mac machine to turn OFF the journaling on that drive, then you can muck with it under linux [05:25] i have to remove these files for OS X to boot, and to my knowledge the only way right now is to boot into OS X [05:25] bluezone, Si, I mean Oui [05:26] can someone just mention my nick? [05:26] I'm testing something [05:26] YankDownUnder: haha [05:26] AbhiJit nothing there shows the release dates .. do you know also, of a rss feed that will update when new packages are available? [05:26] jon8, no idea [05:26] and it's an internal hdd too, so that complicates stuff [05:26] Madpilot, Actually, I cant get my speed more than 11 MegaBytes per second speed. Is there a distributed download manager or something? [05:26] cjac, Just plug it into an already booted OSX machine, change the journaling options, and voila, you're done. [05:27] ah, ok [05:27] Today I installed a new router (Linksys E2000) onto my network. Flashed it with dd-wrt, setup my LAN+WLAN, and everything was great. I got to my Ubuntu thinkpad (T61) and all the sudden my wireless refuses to work properly. For some reason Network Manager is putting it into Ad-Hoc mode and giving it an ip address in the 10.42.43.0/24 subnet (I assume this is similar to ARPIPA for Linux?). I tried googling, but found nothing dealing [05:27] cjac, Sorry - I just saw INTERNAL and not EXTERNAL. [05:27] shadyabhi, not sure where you are in the world, but the bottlenecks are usually at the ISP level [05:27] Hypoglybetic, take a look at this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1169149 [05:27] hello [05:28] hm, what about 'hfsutils'? [05:28] help [05:28] /usr/include/stdio.h:651: note: previous declaration of ‘getline’ was here [05:28] cjac, I ran into this too...many of the hfs+ tools are not supported well under linux and are read only. I found one that supports r/w though...give me a min and I'll try to relocate itHFS [05:29] <_Tavo_> Hello, does anyone know how to mount /proc/bus/usb in ubuntu? I need it for java-usb [05:29] cjac, Nah mate. Been there done that - you have to turn off the journaling through an OSX machine... [05:29] Madpilot, I stufy in an institute where we have 100Mbps LAN. But, our internet connection speed is much higher ie 1Gbps. So, 2 students from different computer can download at speed 11MegaBytes per sec simultaneously [05:29] sam-_-, reading now, thanks. [05:29] AbhiJit, doesn't seem like the actual error. post the full output to pastebin [05:29] Madpilot, s/stufy/study [05:30] I need popcorn and beer. [05:30] it'd be nice to keep this all software-side and not have to take apart my computer, but I s'pose it'll come to that [05:30] sam-_-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/553893/ [05:30] muxx, have you tried without network manager. it's quirky sometimes [05:30] how do I access a win7 share? [05:31] how do i reload wlan0 [05:31] or stop/start [05:31] cjac, Ya know, there is a "liveCD" - kinda - that allows you to utilise OSX stuff and not do an install...iATKOS - works on pc's (intel and amd) as well... [05:31] can someone HL me pls? [05:31] donleshot: ifdown wlan0 && ifup wlan0 , both with sudo [05:31] sam-_-: I'm not great at manually using wpa_supplicant, but I'm trying to make a config file right now.

[05:32] donleshot: or ifconfig wlan0 down && ifconfig wlan0 up , also sudo both [05:32] mimor, what do you need a help with [05:32] I'll try that, YankDownUnder [05:32] hello [05:32] thanks, all [05:33] :) [05:33] AbhiJit, i'm gonna say it's an error in the source code. i could be wrong though [05:33] dfcnvt: I'm still trying to figure this out [05:33] sam-_-, ok [05:33] muxx, you can use wicd if you don't like manual setup [05:34] I'm using Xterm to SSH to my server, open screen and enter irssi.

[05:42] konqueror is kde thingy [05:42] r00t4rd3d, ah. didn't know [05:42] when i run conkeror it takes me to help page [05:42] http://conkeror.org/Tips [05:42] yah ok [05:43] nvm [05:43] i figured it out. :P [05:43] freezway: who, w, users, top. check what tty/pts is in use. [05:43] does openal audio work in ubuntu? [05:43] ndxtg: you around? [05:44] what? [05:44] freezway: Does it happend all the time or once? [05:44] what are you talking about [05:45] i didn't ask a question [05:45] freezway: bloody TAB [05:45] freezway: sorry [05:45] lol [05:45] fermulator: Does it happend all the time or once? [05:45] fermulator, isn't even on the channel [05:45] shcherbak: all the time [05:46] ironsight, https://vollkorn.cryptobitch.de/index.php?/archives/90-How-I-solved-my-Ubuntu-Karmic-9.10-ALSA-OpenAL-Sound-problems.html [05:46] anytime I logout, I'm brought to the GDM login screen, and it says my user is "currently logged in" (even though I just logged uot) [05:46] fermulator: can you paste w output? [05:46] paste what log? [05:46] fermulator, are you also logged into a console perhaps? [05:46] fermulator: "w" command [05:47] ZykoticK9: "all the time" [05:47] oh sure thing; [05:47] shcherbak: http://pastebin.com/hAu7uXgk [05:48] sam-_-: Sure enough, it was a Network-Manager issue. [05:48] shcherbak: oh, apparently there is an SSH connection from "fermmy-media" [05:48] muxx, unsurprisingly :-( [05:48] shcherbak: i'll close it, logout, and see if it still shows [05:49] how do i get sound activated in ubuntu? [05:49] Had a feeling. Just wish I knew how to fix Network-Manager from automatically putting the card into Ad-Hoc mode when it connects to the AP. wpa_supplicant worked like a charm fortunately. [05:49] brb [05:49] new, Check to see if your volume is muted or just turned down. [05:49] fermulator: should do, how come that you have ssh "all the time" [05:49] it is unmuted [05:50] the volume is up [05:50] new, how do you test it= [05:50] new, I'll assume you've check the volume level under SYSTEM => PREFERENCES => SOUND...and checked the hardware settings as well.... [05:50] new, also gstreamer-properties [05:51] how do i check the hardware settings? [05:51] hardware tab of sound properties [05:51] shcherbak: wow, that was silly, after closing the SSH session from the remote system, the GDM login menu no longer shows "currently logged in" [05:52] ZykoticK9: you genius! [05:52] shcherbak: I usually "sleep"/"resume" my desktop PC, and my media server has been online for weeks (apparently with an SSH session going) [05:52] anyone here on ubuntu10.10x64 that can help me test something minor real quick? [05:52] Still i did not able to change the ubuntu boot splash [05:52] shcherbak, you figured it out :P [05:52] shcherbak: it's been a while since I restarted the PC [05:52] shcherbak: thanks! [05:53] fermulator: got you first that it happend every boot. Well "w" often suprise me either. [05:53] hi all [05:53] shcherbak: I suppose it's a little weird that GDM says "currently logged in" for SSH sessions ... but oh well [05:53] GAds - one of my servers is only showing 38 days up....dang... [05:53] any help please changing the ubuntu boot logo or splash screen? [05:54] i'm out for now! cheers [05:54] fermulator, i think GDM is being smart - you are logged in [05:54] ox3a, What's the prob mate? [05:55] in vim, if I want to save a file I'm working on under a different name how do I do that? :w ? [05:55] ox3a, have you installed zorin splash screen manager ? [05:55] ZykoticK9: it's debatable I think. GDM is a "graphical Display Manager". saying "currently logged in" is technically true ... but ... expectations of "currently logged in" from a GDM login prompt would imply "graphically logged in" (i.e. to physical tty) [05:56] fermulator, it applies to console logins as well - my origional question ;) [05:56] YankDownUnder, I am customizing Ubuntu live cd (Everything done). Just trying to change boot splash [05:56] ZykoticK9: oh interesting -- testing [05:57] ox3a, http://www.n00bsonubuntu.net/content/install-zorin-splash-screen-manager-on-ubuntu-10-10-maverick-meerkat/ [05:57] r00t4rd3d, I have made my own splash....

[05:58] ZykoticK9: I guess that is the right thing to do === kirkmoreno is now known as |Bboy| [05:58] fermulator, ;) [05:58] YankDownUnder, ? [05:59] ox3a, The base stuff is in /lib/plymouth => modify what you so wish, but you'll have to do an update-alternatives --config default.plymouth, then do an update-initrd afterwards [06:00] Hello!

A way to do it more cleanly ? [06:34] thoth, I wish I can do further time with you and reach to success however I can tell you that it will work only if you know how to do it. I am quite tired and it is late so, ask others here for help and they will, if they can, be patience with you and give you every options to reach that goal for your entertainment's sake in listening to your speaker, speaking out loud to your microphone and [06:34] such media.

[06:42] hi [06:42] hi soulashell [06:42] is it a good idea to connect two WAN's in one switch? [06:42] you´re a newerç'' [06:42] is there any disadvantage? [06:42] anyone got any trouble with the latest natty update? [06:43] i don't have the app bar on the left nor the bar at the top of the screen [06:43] hey you use natty? it solves the acpi problem with battery??? [06:43] !natty | soulashell [06:43] soulashell: Natty Narwhal is the codename for Ubuntu 11.04, due April 28 2011 - Help and support (only) in #ubuntu+1 - Natty is unstable and is not intended for production systems. [06:43] booh-: did you do encryption with installer or after installation? [06:44] gobbe, with installer [06:44] I should do another way? [06:44] soulashell you have a acer machine?? works the acpi???? [06:45] I'm having trouble typing normal English text into flash embedded on websites (e.g. the chat here: http://www.ustream.tv/day9tv). Interestingly, I can insert some Japanese characters, but can't edit the text afterward. This problem is relatively new (last couple days?) [06:46] hello ubuntu user [06:46] atem: i have a toshiba [06:46] Has anyone else encountered that problem? [06:46] so what is the advantage of using ubuntu instead of windows 7 on my acer netbook? [06:47] soulashell: that reads battery good? [06:47] booh-: no, that's proper way. So your problem is that when you type your password it asks question again due that cariage return? [06:47] atem: until this day. yes [06:47] lol [06:47] booh-: have you tried with another keyboard? [06:48] well i have an acer with win7 and now dont read battery [06:48] it marks is charged, i hope in natty version the bug has gone [06:48] atem: upgrade your bios [06:49] Dose anyone know what code will allow me to download an Ubuntu packages into my home folder? Because I need to reinstall a failed windows computer and put Ubuntu on it, except the CD Rom dose not work, so I am restricted to using flash sticks. And I need the package for the external modem to get internet. Any ideas anyone? [06:49] atem: many acer laptops has problems with linux+battery and acer released bios upgrade while ago [06:49] that is when i passed to ubuntu [06:49] Hi guys! I have been using linux for quite a long time, but came back to ubuntu a couple of hours ago [06:49] gobbe, yes it's one of my problem. Each time I type a char, I have a CR with the question repeated... [06:49] it's a great OS [06:50] and it's integration with gnome is so sexy [06:50] eagle : wubi [06:50] gobbe, waiting for other chars of the passphrase. [06:50] but rhythmbox sometimes "lags" when playing music [06:50] mostly .mp3 [06:50] hi, can I ask a question about routing? [06:50] gobbe i am a spanish talker, and i have not find a good way to do the update from ubuntu , do you know some good tutorial?? [06:50] gobbe, also, if a service start at the time the system is wainting for passphrase, it writes messages over my cursor. [06:51] that shows me how to do the update? [06:51] TheMoor: '' wubi'' ? sorry you lost me..... [06:52] anyway, some way to upgrade bios from ubuntu? [06:52] Eagle : http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/windows-installer [06:53] Eagle: Are you looking to get the package files for reinstallation later? Not a simple solution, but you could grab the .deb files from http://packages.ubuntu.com [06:53] anyone? [06:57] maxwave3: Yes. The first thing i tryed was "http://packages.ubuntu.com" But I could not get on to the site, something to do with my web provider, its blocked.... So I wondered if i could get it through the terminal, because i can download packages through it. [06:58] Hi all, could anyone tell me where program executable files are held? for example google earth [06:59] booh-: hmmh. you could press ctrl-l to clear screen [07:00] Eagle: aptitude has a download option that states: Downloads the .deb file for the most recent version of the given package to the current directory. [07:00] atem: no, you cannot update it from ubuntu. You need to create dos-bootdisk (floppy or usb) and update it from there [07:00] Is there an IRC channel for Mactel Ubuntu users? [07:00] gobbe, ok I'll try tomorrow. Thanks... Have to sleep now. [07:00] hello all [07:00] bozdog, it will depend on how you install things where they end up. Deb installs go to different locations then source/binary installs. Try "whereis googleearth" or check in /opt if the usual locations aren't working out. [07:01] thank gobbe i try that but i believe is my skill-carensy , but ill try again, thanks a lot [07:02] is too late,, thanks for helpme and good night [07:02] any motherboard (with support) that has a hdmi input for av? [07:02] zykotick9 cheers [07:03] does anybody know how to play wmv in ubuntu? [07:03] rk: I used medibuntu and installed w32codecs === cdoublejj_ is now known as cdoublejj [07:04] tntc, http://medibuntu.org/? [07:04] rk: that's the one! :D [07:05] rk: their repos have some of the libdvdcss stuff too, IIRC [07:05] maxwave3: Pardon my stupidity......But could you explain.."aptitude"? [07:05] Eagle: I did a test. I typed "aptitude download apache2" and when it finished I had Downloads the .deb file for the most recent version of the given package to the current directory. [07:05] rk: just hit the repository howto, and then install the windows codecs. [07:06] why on earth ppl would encode some linux stuff on wmv? it just blows my mind [07:06] Eagle: sorry copy and pasted wrong infor [07:06] Eagle: (maxwave3 too) bear in mind that you need to install Aptitude as of 10.10 [07:06] how do i disable the integrated wifi so I can install my own pci wifi card? [07:06] Eagle: 'sudo apt-get install aptitude' ought to do it [07:07] brophat: is it a laptop? [07:07] tntc: thanks [07:07] tntc no it is an HP desktop [07:07] brophat: usually something in the BIOS, but I'm not sure [07:07] maxwave3: np. [07:07] ok [07:08] that is what i was thinking to [07:08] brophat: worst case, you can just throw the card in there and leave em both "installed", but tell ubuntu to only use one [07:08] tntc how do i tell ubuntu to only use one of them? [07:09] its working now, thanks tntc [07:09] Hello! Ubuntu newbie here [07:09] rk: good! You're welcome! [07:09] 谢谢 [07:10] brophat: well, there are a few ways. Bios is your best bet. [07:10] tntc: Can I not use some comand in terminal, that will download the package straight to the home folder? [07:10] oh, he left [07:10] Put Ubuntu on a 7 year old Dell laptop that had bit the dust, 48 hours ago. Fell in LOVE instantly... now I got it on my netbook too :) [07:10] Eagle: I'm not sure. My apt-fu is poor. I know you can search for the package online (via google or something) and usually donwload it from something like packages.ubuntu.com [07:11] Eagle: I'm pretty sure you can. I know that any package you install goes into a folder full of .debs [07:11] Eagle, aptitude download package [07:11] Valathar: haha! Awesome! I'm seriously considering putting Ubuntu on my Macbook Pro and Mac Mini because I'm sick of not being able to rip DVDs or use Python. [07:11] Eagle: what nimrod10` said. Make sure you install aptitude first though. [07:11] Eagle: aptitude is the tool to download the package but it is not installed by default on 10.10, which is why tntc suggested installing it via apt-get install aptitude. [07:11] How do I copy 2 patitons (/ and /home) to another disk? [07:11] tntc, it should be installed by defo [07:12] nimrod10`: not on 10.10 [07:12] nimrod10`: remember, they pulled it to save space? [07:12] unless it has gone back in since. [07:12] I'm running on a live cd. [07:12] wow had no idea it has been removed from 10.10, as I'm still on 10.04 [07:12] Linux mint 10 [07:12] tntc - I'm seriously loving it. I was ready to buy a new computer... they were getting so slow with Windows. Now, they're faster than the day they were new... both of them. Install was easy with few issues, and good documentation available for those issues... I'm definitely converted. [07:13] oin #debian-cn [07:13] don't need no stinkin' new PC [07:13] Eagle: Are you looking to download a particular package? [07:13] good to hear that Valathar ! [07:13] tntc: ,nimrod10`: How do I use or access this "aptitude"? [07:14] Eagle: you need to install it. "sudo apt-get install aptitude" from the command line [07:14] Valathar: You should give Linux Mint a try sometime. [07:14] tntc: yes i have. [07:14] then do the "aptitude download " [07:14] anyway, I basically just came in here to try out Empathy on IRC and tinker a bit, and thank anybody in chan who had anything to do with working on Ubuntu 10.10 and netbook edition. Big kudos. [07:14] as they said before. where is the package you want to get. [07:14] kcj, I might... what's the difference from Ubuntu 10.10 ? [07:14] kcj: are you trying to move your installation to bigger disk or something? [07:15] in amazon ubuntu instances autoload of sshd turned off [07:15] tntc: Thanks, I will try it now... [07:15] how turn it on? [07:15] Valathar: Linux mint is Ubuntu on crack. [07:15] tntc, I'm running ubuntu 10.04 on a macbook so it should work for you too [07:15] what kinda crack? hehehe remember, newb here. What does it do for me that Ubuntu 10.10 doesn't? [07:15] gobbe: Yes I'm replacing my disk. [07:16] kcj: is it same size? [07:16] nimrod10`: I have a MBP 7,1, which is a little crazy. Broadcom wireless and weird audio issues. [07:16] kcj: if, then dd is good tool for that [07:16] nimrod10`: maxwave3: Thanks for your help too :) [07:16] nimrod10`: My touchpad is also insanely sensitive, so I need to do a lot of mucking around with configs to get it so that I'm not clicking all over the place. [07:16] gobbe: No and it has another partition (that I have already shrunken) that I want to presrve. [07:17] Valathar: You'll have to try it. [07:17] tntc, I see, I have a 5,1 version , just wait 6 more months :) [07:18] I'll give it a shot. I have another hard drive laying around doing nothing, might just throw it on there and swap back and forth to see what I like [07:18] nimrod10`: story of my life. :/ [07:18] Valathar: Good idea [07:19] nimrod10`: I want to do the big switch now, while I'm waiting for the new semester to start. [07:19] tntc, that happens when you go for the shiny new toy ;) [07:19] anybody play guitar and use Ubuntu for recording? Use the Line 6 guitar port with it? [07:19] nimrod10`: Tell me about it. My 320M graphics have been locking up like crazy in OS X. I'm growing tired of it. [07:19] tntc, no need to switch totally just have it dual boot in case shit goes wrong or until you fix all issues [07:20] nimrod10`: If I go back to Ubuntu, I'm going all the way. Windows and OS X will live in a VM. [07:20] gobbe: Any sugestions? [07:20] nimrod10`: do you have multitouch working? [07:21] kcj: i would use rsync [07:21] tntc, you're courageous I like that ! I just have 2 finger scroll in 10.04 , that was by default. To be honest I'm not fussed about any other type of multitouch [07:21] salam [-o< [07:22] later folks, I'll see you around I'm sure. [07:23] can someone tell me the name of an application I can use to find out what keys are pressed?

[07:43] riktking dunno, it just shows up once in a while and says it has new stuff to install and I run it [07:43] brophat, ok so you are up to date [07:43] riktking i have not installed the pci card yet [07:43] hi, I have a Acer Aspire netbook, and I'm running Ubuntu 10.10. I have developed a problem, I bought an external hard drive, which used to work, I also had a few usb drives that worked as well, but now, none of them will work, I keep getting the message, unable to mount you dont have permission to mount this, can somebody helop please. I want to try install ubuntu netbook on it, as a completely clean instal, but if I cant mount any of the drives, I [07:43] cant install it. === radius is now known as Guest81855 [07:44] brophat, ok so you need to install the new network card! i thought it was already in [07:44] have you checked that the model is supported in linux? [07:44] riktking so when i install the pci card how will the two wifi not conflict and how can i choose to have it use the pci card [07:44] stanley: thank you [07:45] yeh, they were all working, but have had a few updates, now this message. [07:45] brophat, there is an option to select which card you wish to use with the network manager [07:45] droopal: can you mount it manually? [07:45] riktking ok that would be a good thing [07:45] brophat, from where you select the network connection atm [07:45] gobbe: how do you mean, mount what manually? [07:46] brophat, if you really want, you can use both cards to connect to diff networks! [07:46] brophat, i suggest you install the card and see if it works! [07:46] gobi! [07:46] no external droives will mount, and they all used ot, its like I've been locked out of mounting anything to the usb [07:47] riktking where is network manager I don't see it listed under system/administration [07:47] droopal, check yer sys log [07:47] brophat, sys->prefs->Network Connections [07:47] Tilt-GOD: can you tell me how to do that please? [07:47] sorry used to the old name! [07:48] riktking ok ahahah [07:48] ic [07:48] tail -f /var/log/messages [07:48] brophat, is there a network icon in the notification area (top right of the screen) [07:48] then plug the device in [07:48] riktking so it will have two wireless tabs [07:49] riktking yes but i am wired in [07:49] Hi guys! [07:49] not using the onboard wifi cause the onboard wifi is flaky with ubuntu [07:49] brophat, thats the easiest place to select which network card/network you want to connect to [07:49] brophat, hae you checked the onboard wifi doesnt have additional drivers system->admin->aditional drivers [07:49] I have a biiig problem. I have a laptop with a broken copy of Ubuntu. I can get into the system, but my user rights and network services seem to be royally messed up. Basically, the system is giving me error messags for about everything, so I can't really rely on it to be able to handle anything but extremely basic stuff. [07:49] riktking ok then there i would see two wireless options listed [07:50] if you dont wanna use the onboard device at all, just blacklist the module [07:50] I have 20gb if extremely important data on this laptop, and I need help backing it up. [07:50] Any ideas? [07:50] brophat, under the network notification yes [07:50] Drule, use a live CD [07:50] riktking yeah i worked on it for a while and it seems the wifi card has been having issues with ubuntu for a long time [07:50] Is there a way to change my ubuntu startup picture and music? [07:50] Drule, tar -cvf backup.tar Folders/ [07:51] riktking so i gave up and i am gonna use a wifi card i used a few years ago that worked ok [07:51] Drule: either mount the HD on a different laptop or get like a laptop drive reader, plug it into a working linux server and mount -t ext3 or whatever and cp -R [07:51] brophat, probs best! install the new card and try it out === Tilt-GOD is now known as ring0 === ring0 is now known as Tilt-GOD [07:52] Drule: possibly use the live CD and scp the data over to another computer on the network [07:52] riktking well i guess that is it thanks for your help i will stick in the new card tomorrow [07:52] Great suggestions, I'll start with the live cd option as I actually have one handy. :-D [07:52] riktking but it is weird how when i disabled the onboard wifi in the bios, ubuntu would not boot [07:53] brophat, that is,i dont really know enough about that! [07:53] am i the only one on the entire interwebs that wants to use my wwan/gps/etc super card ? [07:53] Tilt-GPD: have just dont that, I have to pastebinj it, and will post in a sec [07:53] Hey, can I get a conclusive answer about minimum system reqs for Ubuntu? Found out this system has enough RAM from the 10.10 release notes, but it doesn't say anything about processor. Wikipedia numbers are a lot higher for everything... [07:53] :/ [07:53] riktking maybe since i did not delete it from ubuntu it was hanging looking for it? [07:54] How can I install Firefox 4 nightlies and Firefox 3.6 stable on the same system? [07:54] can anyone please help with usb adsl modem connection problem [07:54] SolidLiq ^^ [07:54] brophat, shouldnt matter tbf, u shouldnt have to delete from ubuntu [07:54] q_a_z_steve, right now im using a 1.6G Atom with 2g of ram and its running tops [07:54] brophat, you can add devices live - have with usb network cards in the past [07:55] can anyone tell me how to register nickname ?? [07:55] riktking well i dont have usb network card [07:55] Tilt-GOD well this system is way below that. <450 MHz and 320MB RAM [07:55] upsla contact NickServ [07:56] upsla: its on the main freenode website [07:56] Tilt-GOD: appologies for mispelling your name just now, I am really sorry about that. Here is the pastebin for the log pastebin.ubuntu_uk.org/98283 [07:56] brophat, its a benefit of linux, stuff just configures live [07:56] can caffiene work on ubuntu? [07:56] rg [07:56] q_a_z_steve, should be okay, but dont plan on encoding video or anything with it [07:56] gnome rather [07:56] YankeesFan You mean that lil program to keep your computer awake? [07:56] no the kde media player [07:57] Tilt-GOD I can't seem to get it to boot, to TRY mode, and I'm not sure my friend wants this installed quite yet. [07:57] YankeesFan oh, sorry. Too much mac on the brain, stupid AppStore [07:57] what processor is in it ? [07:58] riktking yea well dun know what yu mean hahaha === hekos is now known as Hekos [07:58] YankeesFan It should work, just depends on how much it will install when it comes down. Kaffeine for KDE btw [07:58] nirazio: just download the src for the second one, and 'make'/compile it just dont 'make install' and it wont put it on the system, you will have to run from that dir [07:58] droopal, link didnt work [07:58] Tilt-GOD Funny enough I think it's a celeron, is that even possible at like 434 MHz? [07:59] Reading ubuntu forums - people have loads of issues after updating the files - question as a newbie how often should i update (if at all)??:) [07:59] ohhh [07:59] those are probably not i686 [07:59] sta7ic: for the first one? [07:59] moonraker: at the beginning of a system build before you install anything then never again =p [07:59] 533 celeries were i586 iirc [08:00] nirazio: lets say regular firefox is the first one, well apt-get or whatver its already there, just use it as normal, and when u want the second one, just run it out of command line or a create a shortcut to call that specific binary [08:00] Tilt-GOD What's the command to turn off the quiet-splash altogether on boot? I think it would be useful if I could get the code/family name... [08:00] Tilt-GOD: patebin.ubuntu-uk.org/98283 sorry, hope this works. [08:00] q_a_z_steve: i think its quiet in grub [08:01] sta7ic - So what do u suggest in April when 11.04 is issued - is this a new install or a simply upgrage from the Upgrade Manager in 10.10?:) [08:01] sta7ic so linux quiet? [08:01] Tilt-GOD: you need to copy and paste [08:01] or quiet linux I can never keep them straight [08:01] q_a_z_steve: look for grub flags, i think quiet used to be a flag or nosplash u will see it if u look [08:01] hii guys... im connecting to an ubuntu machine using VNC... i want to get console access via vnc.. how can i do this? [08:02] sta7ic I've recently used --no-quiet-splash, but it comes on after a bit anyway :( [08:02] moonraker, it depends, you usually want to update as frequently as possible [08:02] moonraker: a new vm with 11.04 ive never been a fan of upgrading anything even all the crap patches MS puts out, SP's, etc...get the system stable, firewall, turn off services and leave it be [08:03] twister004 ssh [08:03] sta7ic, then you're not doing it right [08:03] q_a_z_steve: doesnt sound like the right flag your say no quiet, i think you want quiet [08:03] ikt: whats the point of upgrading a bunch of packages you dont use [08:03] q_a_z_steve, at the grub menu edit the boot line to include nosplash and remove quiet [08:03] bloatware [08:03] Is there a better node to ask how to hibernate BackTrack Linux? [08:03] sta7ic, updating frequently is one of the best measures you can do to keep your computer safe [08:04] guys.. can i make change to some gnome file to redirect console session to my vnc screen? [08:04] from who, no one cars about your ppp connection [08:04] Tilt-GOD sta7ic I see, I combined the two. My bad [08:04] Tilt-GOD: pastebin.ubuntu-uk.org/98283, sorry, mis-spelt address. This should work [08:04] sorry the delay guys, im on a spotty connection, untill i can get my gobi/novatel usb adapter to work [08:04] "keep my computer safe, i run linux" n00b [08:04] droopal: the disk [08:04] !backtrack > dblanchard [08:04] dblanchard, please see my private message [08:04] droopal: how did you try to mount it when you got permission error [08:04] ikt, say something useful obviously your a tool [08:05] "i run linux and update to keep my computer safe and virus scan it" [08:05] gobbe: plugged it into the usb port [08:05] droopal: ok, can you try to mount it from terminal [08:05] firewall, mac filtering, turn off ports, no bloatware no issues [08:05] Sta7ic: I have converted to linux and dont want to wreck the install, but as others have said there is 250Mb of updates and half i dont recognise [08:05] gobbe: how do I do that? [08:06] moonraker: exactly.. [08:06] /etc/default$ aptitude download [08:06] bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' /etc/default$ Could someone tell me where im going wrong??? [08:06] moonraker: 80% of people or more are idiots and followers, is that about the percentage of people who want to ruin your good working install? [08:06] droopal: sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt/something [08:07] Eagle: show us the command you are issuing [08:07] @ubotta, awesome, thanks. [08:07] moonraker, they are usually safe to install [08:07] sta7ic: Thanks for that - I will just watch others in here and wait:) [08:07] HALO [08:07] sta7ic: Thats it, I think...... [08:08] moonraker: if you see a package you actually use and would like a newer version, then yeah just grab that one [08:08] twister004 I would recommend ssh . It's way more straight forward. Is there a reason you want to vnc to display::00414 or whatever to get to console? Why not VNC and start terminal? [08:08] Eagle: sudo aptitude download ubuntu-restricted-extras [08:08] Eagle: thats not a command [08:08] hai all [08:08] hello === andrew_ is now known as Guest89229 [08:09] yeah throw sudo...and next time dont paste your prompt [08:09] llutz_: sta7ic: Thanks :) :) ") [08:09] hi [08:10] i wanna ask, how to make a .deb file from .tar.gz or .tarbz2???

[08:25] israfel: no [08:26] dodgy_script: just do this apt-get --purge remove python* and then reinstall the python you need [08:26] rahadian, I'd try removing it and reinstalling. Although, there may be other things you have to remove, awoken-icon-theme (etc) [08:27] X0nar, im having trouble importing modules e.g. import subsystem [08:27] q_a_z_steve: ?-key yes (the one with the question mark on it hangs) === RealEyes is now known as Laggg [08:27] X0nar, i guess its overkill !! [08:27] rahadian, Actually, I think my first one was wrong, the package is awoken-icon-thene [08:27] rahadian, Actually, I think my first one was wrong, the package is awoken-icon-theme [08:27] hehe [08:28] guys.. i think I can make changes to the .vnc/xstartup file... and redirect the session.. am I correct?.. please confirm [08:28] sta7ic: I am trying to learn it! [08:28] dodgy_script: it sure is .. you need to select only the packages you need because you end up with a load of stuff you don't need. [08:28] I think I need to add some line in that file.. dont remember [08:29] twister004, What's the ultimate goal here? [08:29] israfel: okay, i'd try it too............ [08:29] I was deleting some files off an ntfs partition and the external HDD became disconnected. Now the partition won't mount. Help (freaking out). [08:29] Israfel: he wants to shadow someone elses session [08:29] Israfel.. I want to get onto the console session of the machine.. The same session as the Local User [08:30] twister004, Ah, so you can play a video for them? or too them? [08:30] I won't call it a shadow.. it's the same session.. the local user should lose visual access [08:30] llutz_ hangs what? I thought you were telling him to fix his questions perhaps... [08:30] twister004 if you think that will work, TRY IT [08:30] Israfel.. something like that.. I want to make changes to their session [08:30] *yawn* [08:31] do you guys know what I need to add in the .vnc/xstartup file to redirect the screen output [08:31] kcj: apt-get install ntfs-progs gparted then go in and look to see if partition table is okay [08:31] X0nar, i can import with python2.* though not with py3.1 I'll do as suggested thanks !! [08:31] kcj what's the error you are getting? [08:31] israfel: it doesnt work....... [08:31] hello my awesome ubuntu users [08:31] kcj: don't format anything .. just look at the partitions [08:31] X0nar: ok [08:32] twister004, That sounds interesting, makes me wonder if there's a way to force a machine to load into a screened session.. That way you you log in and reconnect to the session. (their session.) [08:32] yes [08:32] twister004: I still don't know exactly what you want. Connect to a remote user's X session? [08:32] i installed jackd and now pulseaudio isn't working or something [08:32] yes!! [08:32] i saw some message right before gdm started about it [08:32] rahadian, There has to be a way to remove that package. Do you remember what it was called? [08:32] vlt.. yes! [08:32] ubottu: pulseaudio [08:32] PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions [08:32] twister004: What's wrong with x11vnc? [08:32] X0nar: E: Unable to locate package ntfs-progs [08:33] vlt.. I think it is possible using normal vncserver.. why install x11vnc ? [08:33] desaiu Ctrl+Alt F1 to see if you can get the message still [08:33] kcj: have you got synaptic? [08:33] twister004: When you want to connect to an X (not Xvnc) session you need x11vnc [08:33] X0nar: Yep. I'm on a Linux Mint 10 live CD BTW [08:34] twister004: You don't need x11vnc if we are talking about Xvnc sessions only [08:34] twister004: Is the remote machine headless? [08:34] kcj: well this is ubuntu but i will look for you brb [08:34] vlt.. I had done this before.. unfortunately, I didnt document it:(... I remember I had made changes to the .vnc/xstartup file.. and got onto the same session as the user [08:34] I must be getting tired, I kept reading vnc as vlc. [08:34] !mint [08:34] Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu, please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [08:34] X0nar: ntfsprogs is installed [08:35] q_a_z_steve: irrelevant === Guest98347 is now known as awk [08:35] Just checking [08:35] ??

[08:36] israfel: no, sorry [08:36] no [08:36] im a guy [08:36] anyways... Im providing IT support there [08:36] yes and you want to spy on your b/f for malicious reasons and u come in here a family channel and ask for help [08:36] twister004: x11vnc works fine for this task [08:36] ok [08:36] kcj: they aren't giving a list of ntfs packages so i suggest you get a live cd of ubuntu and come back on that [08:36] Sta7ic: Have you come across the error msg "hd0 mdos1 error"? Got this trying to install maverick onto vista hd? [08:37] X0nar: Did you get my last message? [08:37] twister004: was the thing you set in the .vnc file something like "DISPLAY=:0.1 [08:37] how do i modify root-access only files? im trying to edit a config file, but i need root permissions [08:37] twister004: (I never tried attaching Xvnc to a real X session) [08:37] fizy[laptop]: sudo nano file [08:37] from command line? [08:37] fizy[laptop]: yes [08:37] kcj: okay i see that now .. so go to your gparted and it will scannn for all diskc [08:37] thx [08:37] disks [08:38] moonraker: what command, what context, need more info than that [08:38] YES Someone lamer than me trying to do IT Support too. There is hope. [08:38] im not google [08:38] kcj: will be under system administration utilities [08:38] twister004 Just really quick, Why don't you use ssh to their machine? [08:39] X0nar: I know. I'm not a noob. [08:39] q_a_z_steve: twister004 needs ssh to run x11vnc anyway [08:39] Are they going to install that? Did I miss the new star in the East? [08:40] X0nar: gparted is open. What would you like me to do? [08:40] kcj: did this happen while you were on the current live session? [08:40] X0nar: No. [08:40] Sta7ic: When i first tried to install maverick onto vista hd - allowed maverick to occur free space and create a new partition (worked fine) When I re-booted got the dual boot grub menu but when selecting maverick screen when blank and a few seconds later got that msg. Overcome the problem by installing maverick onto a clean hd. Posted this on ubuntu forums but no one got back to me. 3 other people had the same problem. [08:41] Hey, I booted Ubuntu with a live CD and I am trying to delete a folder [08:41] but it's giving me "permission denied" [08:41] what can I do? [08:41] Drule: delete what folder? [08:41] kcj: did you get gparted and is the disc being recognised? [08:41] moonraker: i dont know but first place i would look is /boot/grub/grub.conf [08:41] i wanna ask again........can you show me how to remaster a LiveCD???? [08:41] !remaster | rahadian [08:41] rahadian: Interested in remastering the Ubuntu !live CD? See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization or use tools such as http://uck.sourceforge.net/ or http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/DRU_Disc_Remastering_Utility [08:42] jrib: A user-created folder. [08:42] The owner is "nobody" [08:42] Drule: you probably are trying to delete a virutal folder on a virtual OS, did you mount the HD and then try and delete from there? [08:42] :D [08:42] Drule: you created a folder on the live cd? It shouldn't be owned by "nobody" if that was the case. [08:42] X0nar: Yes. [08:43] 大家好 [08:43] it's very helpful, thanks @jrib @ubottu [08:43] Sta7ic: Not a problem now as install works fine on its own hd - just curious. (as I wont be using windows again). As you might have guessed I am rapidly learning linux o/s LOL [08:43] No, the folder is on my physical HDD. The reason why it's owned by "nobody" is because my Ubuntu is completely broken, hence why I booted it with a live CD. I need to delete this folder so I can make enough space to zip the files I need to back up. [08:43] kcj: any errors and has it still got data on it? [08:43] So the question is, how can I delete this folder? [08:43] Drule: gksudo nautilus, then delete the folder [08:44] Drule: sudo rm -rf /path/to/folder [08:45] X0nar: http://i.imgur.com/Ti8bz.png [08:46] X0nar: That^^^ [08:46] ?????????? [08:46] Drule: sudo rm -fR "path-to-dir" [08:46] How do I change the password on my keyring? [08:46] Drule: try that === robbo is now known as Guest46857 [08:47] Aight, I tried jrib's gksudo nautilus [08:47] and deleted the folder in the file manager [08:47] kcj: it looks fine are you sure that is the external drive? [08:47] it disappeared instantantly [08:47] did it really disappear? [08:47] . [08:47] Drule: awww boo, gui is no fun [08:47] instantly* [08:48] Drule: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [08:48] Drule: yes it did [08:48] 汉字。。。新人。。。 [08:48] !cn [08:48] For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道：打字 /join #ubuntu-cn 或者 打字 /join #ubuntu-tw 或者 打字 /join #ubuntu-hk [08:48] Well, I'm kind of panicking here as I'm experiencing tons of problems on both of my laptops. I just want to get these files off of my computer and reinstall linux. [08:48] Ah god damn it! [08:48] X0nar: It was external when the incident happened but I have installed it into my laptop now. [08:48] I keep getting "zip I/O error: No space left on device" :-/ [08:48] thx [08:48] Drule: empty the trash [08:48] I did. [08:49] The weird part is that the folders are 20gb unzipped, and I have 22gb left on my HDD [08:49] 26gb* [08:49] kcj: go to system then "media" and then browse through the hard drive sda ?? [08:49] Could this have something to do with me running from a live cd? [08:49] Drule: 22gb left on the folder you are running unzip? [08:49] No, I'm trying to zip 20gb of data on a HDD with 26gb left. [08:49] changing in host file doesnot open other another web instead of other? [08:49] I get this error while trying to install GIMP: http://imagebin.org/132561 [08:49] sta7ic I tried nosplash and yet I'm looking at one again after only a few seconds... What [08:49] any workaround? [08:50] X0nar: It's not mounted to "/media". I can't mount it. [08:50] q_a_z_steve: i didnt say use that, i said look at the grub flags if this is even grub we are talking about [08:50] ds4h: pastebin the result of « apt-cache policy gimp » [08:50] kcj: don't understand .. put it back in the enclosure and then put back your other hard drive ... do a live session from scratch and plug the external enclosure in [08:50] 1in [08:50] 1min* [08:50] sta7ic \'s another way I can get past what I think was a kernel panic, and maybe find the processor code/family name... This is grub. Ubuntu 10.10 liveCD [08:51] X0nar: Why? [08:51] q_a_z_steve: http://www.owlriver.com/tips/hands-off/images.html [08:51] ok goodnight off to bed [08:51] sta7ic I have flashing CAPS and SCROLL [08:51] ok [08:52] here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/553928/ [08:52] help me i modify my hosts file with two IP's, the motto is to open a web instead of other when i will enter the url [08:52] kcj: if you manage to save these files where are you going to put them? [08:53] sta7ic I think that article is more toward making my own... I'll read whether it has "turn off splash"... [08:53] X0nar: I plan to get the ntfs repaired and leave it. My other disk has bad sectors. I've been running off my live cd for a week now. [08:53] ds4h: pastebin « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gimp » [08:53] i've seen the mint-menu on distrowatch, and that exactly what i miss after change from kde to gnome.. have someone install it on ubuntu 10.10... what have i to do tu run it? [08:54] .txt is normal text extension for win. so whats the default for linux? [08:55] AbhiJit: you can use .txt. Linux doesn't care all that much about extensions [08:55] kcj: your drive is mounted already .. theres nothing wrong with it. Just go to system places and browse the files [08:55] rethus, download it and load a thumb and try it out [08:55] jrib, yah but i want to know [08:55] AbhiJit: I just said, use .txt [08:55] jrib, ok [08:55] No init fount. Try passing init= bootarg. BusyBox v1.13.3 (Ubuntu 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu7) built in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of build in commands (initramfs) [08:56] X0nar: odd "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/disk" worked. [08:56] jrib: apt installed it, no errors [08:56] logout [08:56] ask again (sorry, im newbie in ubuntu), why ubuntu and linux is virus-free???? [08:56] ds4h: it didn't ask you to confirm installation of untrusted packages? [08:56] How can I solve this problem? [08:56] !virus | rahadian [08:56] rahadian: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus [08:56] dirtydevil, boot problem? [08:56] X0nar: But double clicking on it wouldn't. [08:57] jrib: just the usual Y/n about download [08:57] kcj: well can you browse it now? [08:57] Hopw to solve it? [08:57] rahadian: because most people dont write virus for linux, *YET* [08:57] X0nar: yes [08:57] kcj: then you can exhale huh lol [08:57] ds4h: hmm. Do you have any unofficial repositories (including ppas)? [08:57] can you run code using the text editor? [08:57] X0nar: Indeed. Thanks for your help. [08:57] nit-wit: : how to solve this error? [08:58] like compile code? [08:58] kcj: if i was you i would put that old drive in the enclosure and format it to ntfs in gparted [08:58] Guest46857: well you can edit code with the text editor and some text editors might offer some convenience menu to build/run it [08:58] install mint-menu on 10.10 [08:58] http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/install-linux-mint-main-menu-mintmenu.html [08:58] jrib: not sure. how do I check that? [08:58] It's also because Linux is mostly immune to viruses. And against the kind of malware that Linux isn't safe from, a virus detector wouldn't do anything [08:58] dirtydevil, you will have to more decriptive type of install, and any duall boots,or is it a wubi [08:59] ds4h: it would be something that you would have had to have done. But you can pastebin /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* [08:59] owh.... [08:59] X0nar: Probably. I'd formant it to ext3 though. MS can die in a fire. [08:59] kcj: also when you have backed up all your stuff get yourself some ubuntu and install that on your laptop [08:59] nit-wit: : Its a dual boot and other partition is Windows vista [09:00] kcj: well i tend to go for ext4 where i can [09:00] X0nar: I was having crashing issues with Ubuntu so I moved to Mint. [09:00] dirtydevil, can you run this script and pastebin it. http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ [09:00] X0nar: I find Ubuntu to be too unstable. [09:01] kcj: maybe knock back to lucid LTS in a netbook install [09:01] i have a java problem again :( it says "Unable to access jarfile minecraft.jar [09:01] " [09:01] hi guys. I've just re-installed an ultra-xkinny XBMC system (X only, no desktop), but I'm having audio problems. how can I test audio outside of a desktop? [09:01] X0nar: Meh. Linux Mint if freaking awesome though. [09:01] nit-wit: actually I am trying to boot it from live CD [09:02] nit-wit: but its not booting infact [09:02] :( [09:02] kcj: X0nar: mint is pretty wicked; moon OS is pretty cool too [09:02] X0nar: I highly recommend it. [09:02] kcj: haven't tried it for a few years - but if you like it then go for it [09:02] hoox can i play Playstation 1 on my Ubuntu???? [09:02] how can i play Playstation 1 on my Ubuntu???? [09:02] X0nar: You should give it a try. [09:03] rahadian: probably; You'll need some sort of emulator [09:03] kieppie: what is the name of the emulator??? [09:03] kcj: i am Debian sqeeze girl these days .. got sick of plymouth and mountall and now nuveau graphics drivers had enough [09:04] jrib: files in sources.list.d : ubuntu-wine-ppa-maverick.list ubuntu-wine-ppa-maverick.list.save; contents of sources.list : http://paste.ubuntu.com/553934/ === riktking_ is now known as riktking [09:04] dirtydevil, hard to say,could bse any number of reasons from a bad download, to fast of a burn, not burned as an image [09:04] *be [09:04] rahadian: no idea; you'll have to google it [09:04] kcj: I tried Debian once. Hated it. [09:04] rahadian: This might help, it references the installation of a playstation emulater and how to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1512495 Not something I've used, but hopefully it'll get you started [09:04] jrib: or you ment contents of those two files as well? [09:04] yeah [09:04] Hi everyone [09:04] ds4h: make sure you have the key for the wine ppa [09:04] kieppie: okay, i'll try [09:05] ds4h: I did mean the contents, but I can guess them :) [09:05] nit-wit: I have downloaded it from Ubuntu's Website and make it bootable using unetboorin [09:05] I have a minor annoyance with switching keyboard layouts (English <--> Bulgarian) and I was wondering if there's a way to fix it. [09:05] unetbootin* [09:05] kcj: liking it so far and you can install anything you want on a base system including ubuntu packages [09:05] Gnome seems to remember what layout I use for each program. Which is very cool. [09:06] jrib: okay, how do I get/check keys? never dome this :] [09:06] X0nar: Sweet. I must go. I hope I don't screw up again. :) [09:06] But whenever I hit a shortcut that opens a new app or a window, that window gets to "inherit" the layout I use for the current window. Thus making me type commands in Bulgarian when I hit Alt-F2 to try and run a program [09:06] dirtydevil, are you using the latest unetbootin? [09:06] ds4h: how did you add the wine ppa? [09:06] ya [09:06] kcj: good luck with it cya [09:06] or keep the Bulgarian layout when I lock my workstation. Which kinda sucks when you try to type your password. === 13WAA0KAX is now known as Jeroen_vdL [09:07] So, is there any way for Gnome to default to the *default* keyboard layout when it opens a new window? [09:07] jrib: wine was installed through software center, I did not add any manual lines there [09:07] ds4h: you must have added the wine ppa at some point [09:07] dirtydevil, not sure really, with uneybootin you can't get to the main menu gui. [09:07] nit-wit: think its not mounting /boot. is it so? [09:07] nit-wit: so what should I do now? [09:07] jrib: my memory must be messing around with me then [09:08] nit-wit: I dont want to loose my data [09:08] dirtydevil, not sure it works for me generally I haven't had problems per-say. How many times have you loaded it? [09:08] ds4h: go here: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-wine/+archive/ppa and click on "What is this?" next to the signing key [09:08] I went out and bought a USB stick instead [09:09] works perfectly ;-D [09:09] dirtydevil, loaded the thumb [09:09] ds4h: then do step 6 for older (pre 9.10) systems even if your system is newer [09:09] morning all :) [09:09] I had fedora first but from the first day i think its 28th April when ubuntu 10.04 is launched , I have it installed [09:09] I'm having issues using ssh to connect to my server at home. could anyone help? [09:10] how do i install the netbook remix ontop of normal ubuntu? [09:10] vampirnata: does « ssh localhost » work on the server locally?

[09:14] jrib: if I copy signing key from the page, it says it is not valid, if I do command exactly as in the What is this manual, with the same key, it works [09:14] jrib: w8. i messed up abit [09:14] ds4h: not sure what you mean. If it's working now that's fine. If you're still having issues, pastebin exactly what you executed and the output [09:14] hmmmm :/ where should I go look for help with sound? [09:17] jrib: problem solved. thank you for help, jrib :) [09:17] nit-wit: ok. So there is any thing i can do to save my data? [09:18] dirtydevil, so your data is on vista? [09:18] data is in ubuntu. Vista is working fine [09:18] how do i install the netbook remix ontop of ubuntu [09:19] dirtydevil, and it is a dual boot not a wubi [09:19] ya [09:19] riktking, install unity [09:20] rumpe1, thanks [09:21] dirtydevil, I think you will have to figure this out, it is basic stuff, you have the tools I don't know how they have been used. [09:21] kieppie have you seen the links for !sound [09:21] nit-wit: ok thanks for help anyway [09:21] q_a_z_steve: not yet.... [09:21] ?sound [09:21] !sound [09:21] If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. [09:22] When locking the computer after unlocking all the icons are gone, does one recognize this? [09:22] That middle one has some cool alsa tricks, for troubleshooting you'll get a whole webpage full of your own stuff as it is recognized [09:23] ssh to the machine and it appears full responsive [09:24] Noorman do you mean that after you see no icons, starting ssh from somewhere will trigger them to show? [09:24] q_a_z_steve: yea.... I've checked those pages out. just closed the last tab before asking my question [09:25] no, i meant to say that loging in from another machine works like a charme and there apears to be no bottle neck in performance and such [09:25] but the desktop (gnome) is empty [09:25] kieppie I'm not 100% on anything, especially since I think ALSA has yet to get my card supported. macbook pro with Intel/Cirrus ... [09:26] Hi there - if i cannot view several pages (like www.wolframalpha.com) ohn my Ubuntu 10.04. If i ping these pages or try to connect via IP it doesn't work either - i'm behind a VPN - but i can access these sites under windows - has sb any clue? thanks [09:26] another sys of mine is an "old" MBP (SantaRosa) model. audio's fine there.... [09:26] Noorman This session isn't allowed to show that user the same icons perhaps? Just throwing that out there as a few things to check [09:27] kk [09:27] I got a problem. I removed a slave drive from my linux box and now when booting up in its very slow. Takes 10 minutes to login under a user. I place the slave drive back in but its still slow. Any suggestions? === yen-thao is now known as y-t [09:28] tasse Can you ping by the name from ubuntu? [09:28] i will look into it more closely [09:28] yes i can q_a_z_steve [09:28] hi on may ssh machine I have set "alias ls='ls --color=auto'" but is there any other configuration for the color ? curently my path is blue and I would like to change that [09:29] kieppie where did you find the family name? I haven't looked into that enough I guess, but I want to know mine. [09:29] tasse so is there an error in firefox? [09:30] ajitam sounds like a terminal profile preference [09:30] nope its just not loading, tried it with several browsers (opera, chromium, firefox) - same result, just a "white" page [09:30] i have just gotten lucid, and trying to find my important files on my old drive, i can't find .xchat2, i have enabled hidden files and i'm in my home directory.. but it can't find xchat? [09:30] q_a_z_steve: I have 2: my ATI's HDMI (which I'll concern myself with later) & thwe on-board Intel AD198x (which is pretty bog-standard) [09:31] chull define "can't find" [09:31] q_a_z_steve: um it doesn't find the main .xchat2 directory, no files found. [09:31] q_a_z_steve: yea but all I have is --color=auto and I don't know what I can type instead of "auto" === j5x_ is now known as j5x [09:31] i locked stickynotes and force quit applet on panel. but still they always change their positions [09:31] :'( [09:32] ajitam that's nothing to do with what I am saying [09:32] q_a_z_steve: is there a way to search my old drive using command line, besides using file browser (which can't find .xchat2) [09:32] chull you have xchat installed? and you are looking where? [09:33] q_a_z_steve: i never used file browser, just command line, $ cd .xchat2 [09:33] .xchat2 sounds like it would be a log folder or something, have you looked in your home dir? [09:33] chull: mount the drive and use ls -a [09:34] chull: cd ~/.xchat2 [09:34] or not loading is possible wrong, it trys to load, but it won't succeed q_a_z_steve :/ its always a white page and its tryin to load [09:34] q_a_z_steve: i was, yes [09:34] chull: err sorry [09:34] chull: if you have cd in to it then just, ls -a , -a is all and includes . [09:34] IdleOne: accessing it from a different drive [09:34] I want to boot from flash drive, and want to save battery power,is it possible to power entirely off or something harddrive? [09:34] tasse can you browse for www.purple.com ? [09:35] how do i cd [09:35] !error | elkng [09:35] elkng: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) [09:35] yes :p i can view most pages [09:35] but some don't load [09:35] chull mount it, then cd to that dir [09:36] !mount [09:36] mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount [09:36] tasse is there something special about these wolfram or others, like flash or other extensions? [09:36] chull: first in terminal type: mount [09:37] hm i don't know - but don#t think so [09:37] IdleOne taking a shift I see [09:37] chull: do you see the other hdd mounted?

[09:39] q_a_z_steve: is it matter? [09:39] elkng: not really, just umiunt drive [09:39] elkng: * umount [09:40] elkng I was going to suggest power options, but try ^^ [09:40] Anyone else have any ideas on my ssh problem? I am currently at work and I am trying to connect to my home ubuntu server via ssh. I've set up port forwarding on my router to forward any request on port 22 to the local ip of the server. I've set up sshd on the server and it works locally (i.e. i can connect to it from a local windows machine). [09:41] elkng: OK, is there actually a problem with the drive, then q_a_z_steve is write about spin down drive but if you just don;t want to use it then umount [09:41] vampirnata sure you don't mean local IP of the computer? [09:42] steve: eh? [09:42] vampirnata nevermind, read that wrong [09:42] rusty149: spin down? [09:42] :) [09:42] IdleOne, q_a_z_steve http://chalcedony.pastebin.com/ajfeDu9K [09:42] wtf is happening with ubuntu ? compiz doesn't work anymore after update and I can't get flash video in fullscreen mode because it crash, nautilus has a lot bugs, man wtf [09:42] I have an unfortunate way of writing cryptically :/ [09:42] killown: which ubuntu?

[09:44] elkng: power option to reduce drive access and thus 'spin less' [09:44] Trying to install ubuntu on an external hd. Can i safely do this from my imac without changing anything to my imac? [09:44] CERNUNN0S I use vbox, but haven't done a cluster [09:44] Mass: Sure [09:45] IdleOne: how can i move the directory in command line? [09:45] Mass: but on Mac it should be a firewire drive not USB [09:45] ïðèâåò âñåì [09:45] chull, mv dir1/ another/dir/ [09:45] no clue q_a_z_steve ? :/ [09:45] Mass would recommend going through the process on www.ubuntu.com. the one for "USB stick" [09:45] chull: mv /source/of/file/ /destination/of/file/ [09:45] rusty149_ ??? [09:46] !ru| Mikhle [09:46] Mikhle: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke [09:46] chull: type man mv which gives u the help info document [09:46] q_a_z_steve what? [09:46] imac have USB too... isn't your comment rather assumptive? [09:46] q_a_z_steve: The problem i'm having is getting the internal network and the NAT to work at the same time. On theere own they are fine. But when both are running I can ping the first machine from the host machine but the guest machine no longer connects to the internet [09:47] tasse remind me what I said, couldn't find the scrollback [09:47] q_a_z_steve I just did apt-get update; apt-get upgrade [09:47] q_a_z_steve i tried the usb version but somehow it won't boot. Using the cd now to boot and install from [09:47] after that compiz stop to work [09:47] hello [09:47] tasse is there something special about these wolfram or others, like flash or other extensions? <- and i said no, not really ;) [09:47] and flash can't get fullscreen mode [09:48] Hi, how do i see what version of tomcat6 i have installed? And how do i install an older version of tomcat6 in the console? [09:48] oopepe: apt-cache policy tomcat6 [09:48] killown have to look and see which package botched it. try --fix-broken ? [09:49] tasse hmm, tried a different browser? [09:49] yep, tried chromium/opera/firefox [09:49] same result [09:49] mass have to make the drive bootable [09:49] I need some advice on installing ubuntu partition over password protected windows (and how I can then remove windows partition) [09:49] firefox is the best [09:50] a13x ubuntu will wipe the drive. good enough? [09:50] a13x: If you are referring to standard password login then it is irrelevant [09:50] tasse you can ping these sites? [09:50] yep [09:50] q_a_z_steve allright! now I only have to format the external drive and install ubuntu =) I guess the boot loader deice should be the external drive. right? [09:50] give me links and ips [09:50] a13x: i.e to remove windows and install Ubuntu, just install as per normal [09:50] IdleOne: thank you [09:50] YES, the same drive [09:51] oopepe: welcome [09:51] Mass ^^ [09:51] q_a_z_steve thanks! [09:51] <_vaibhav_> how I can remove older kernels from my system?? am having previous 3 versions.. 32.21, 22, 24 and 25.. can I remove them safely?? [09:52] _vaibhav_: search for them in Synaptic package manager and yes you can safely remove them. [09:52] 140.177.205.54 (wolframalpha.com) @ q_a_z_steve [09:52] _vaibhav_ you are probably also talking about getting rid of the references in grub no? [09:52] q_a_z_steve: when you uninstall from synaptic it will also update grub [09:53] ooh See!? [09:53] <_vaibhav_> IdleOne: thaks a lot.. :) I 'll do it from synaptic.. [09:57] IdleOne: with a name like that.. what would the destination file be called like? [09:58] IdleOne: i found .xchat2 :) [09:58] how do I deb-ify a bunch of files included with a install script? [09:58] or how would I at least keep track of an install not done via .deb? [09:59] tasse only thing I see off the top in [inspect element] is javascript, do other javascript pages load okay for you? [09:59] Hi guys, could someone help me? I have installed a game called Enemy Territory, but can't seem to get sound working. I've tried the methods listed on Wiki.ubuntu, nothing seems to work. I tried installing OSS and it made my computer screech really loud... could someone help me? Thank you [09:59] chull: /home/llhull/.xchat2 would be the destination [09:59] almoxarife: open/unzip/unpack the archive in it's own directory [09:59] !sound > Dannnnnn [09:59] Dannnnnn, please see my private message [10:00] chull: no, can't do, it needs to add files into other areas [10:00] IdleOne: gee that would be ..just like it was [10:00] IdleOne: thank you :) [10:00] chull: welcome. glad to help [10:01] That's not the problem, I have sound within everything else, including other games... [10:01] a13x please keep communication in channel [10:02] how do i run binary files on ubuntu? [10:02] if i do sudo ./binary_file it says no such command [10:02] hm do you have a page where i can test it q_a_z_steve [10:02] sorry [10:02] ksinkar: cd to the directory [10:02] Dannnnnn kudos for that. Better off than me atm but that seems like a developer of the game sort of issue, this isn't WINE I assume? [10:03] ksinkar: and mark it as executable, with sudo chmod +x ./binary_file [10:03] excuse me, I'm trying to set up an ad hoc network, I'm on ubuntu 10.04. I've made the network and everything but I don't seem to be able to start my wireless without actually disconnecting my "etho" connection? How can I turn this network on? [10:03] Nope not using WINE, it installed fine, and games running off of the same engine seem to work fine. I know there is a way with OSS4, but it didn't work with my laptop for some reason. [10:04] a13x iirc you are installing over top of it, Ubuntu will reformat by default, so it will become ext3 or ext4. [10:04] Poshe you are trying to share your internet to others around? [10:05] Poshe: I think network-manager has a share conection mode, are you on desktop? [10:05] q_a_z_steve: Yes I am trying to share my internet. [10:06] sacarlson: I'm on a laptop though. Can't seem to be able to turn the wireless on. [10:06] Sorry, offtopic, how can I view what version (64, 32bit etc..) of ubuntu ? [10:06] I'm using [10:06] Dannnnnn: uname -m [10:06] ty [10:06] i686, I guess 32Bit? [10:06] Dannnnnn: yes [10:06] Poshe: Have u downloaded the extra propertiary drivers from the panel? [10:06] moonraker: what's that? [10:07] Poshe: are you haveing problems on the sharing side or the client side? what are you sharing with? [10:07] !network > Poshe these could help too. [10:07] Poshe, please see my private message [10:08] On on laptop on the top panel I have an icon (green) with propmpted me to download wireless drivers for my card (broadcom device) [10:08] sacarlson: I can't turn the wireless on without turning the etho off. So effectively I'll be without internet if I wanted to create an ad hoc. [10:08] hi. Do you know if ubuntu works with a Zotac GeForce 9300-ITX-I-E? [10:08] Poshe: Turn eth0 off and establish wireless internet. Then set eth0 to share with others and turn on [10:09] :), ty, and when downloading Open Source Sound 4 (0SS4) I have a choice to download the package file. Which one shall I choose for my OS? I'm using Ubuntu 10, latest install. Linux 2.6 (RPM), LINUX 2.6 (DEB), LINUX 2.6 (TAR)... I did the Deb package last time, as I seen Ubuntu = Debian? [10:09] moonraker tell her the more static way of finding it. System > Administration > Additional Drivers isn't it? [10:09] Dannnnnn: why not just use what ubuntu comes with? [10:09] Anyone ever used avahi to broadcast afpd ? [10:09] Jrib: I get no sound in my game (enemy territory) [10:09] For some reason my mac can't see my serveri in the shared list [10:09] server ** [10:10] Dannnnnn: what have you done to troubleshoot that? [10:10] ok tried one and it works q_a_z_steve [10:10] Dannnnnn: sudo apt-get install oss4-gtk [10:10] Dannnnnn Ubuntu != Debian, debian based, but <> Debian [10:10] !anyone chrislabeard_ [10:10] !anyone | chrislabeard_ [10:10] chrislabeard_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [10:10] q_a_z_steve: I'm sorry? [10:10] jrib: I did evrything here- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnemyTerritory [10:11] wow it has it's own page. I better check this game out [10:11] Poshe: I don't have network-manager installed on a 10.04 system so I can't see what you see, but I'm booting a 10.10 version that I beleave has share internet. I've never used it so I"m going to just take a peak [10:12] Enemy Territory has a very active community:) - www.crossfire.nu for the place where everyone who plays the game talks / news etc... :), but GL getting it to work :D. [10:12] Is there any way I can force NetworkManager to show in my notification area? I'm using ethernet, with no wireless card, so it isn't showing; but that means I can't see my VPN connections [10:12] tasse I haven't forgotten about you. I'm just at a loss as to a "testing my connectivity/testing my browser's balls" site. [10:12] IdleOne: i have real problems with file structures (learning disability) http://chalcedony.pastebin.com/ZPnAfUaG [10:13] I am currently at work and I am trying to connect to my home ubuntu server via ssh. I've set up port forwarding on my router to forward any request on port 22 to the local ip of the server. I've set up sshd on the server and it works locally (i.e. i can connect to it from a local windows machine). Anyone have any ideas? [10:13] sacarlson: ahh. Alright thanks. I'm on 10.04 but I think I might need to physically turn my wireless on when I restart my laptop for it to actually work. [10:13] I'll give it a try anyway. [10:13] vampirnata sorry. Can you ping the router from here? [10:13] vampirnata: you can't actually verify at this point that « ssh localhost » on the server works, right? [10:14] vampirnata: or are you able to remotely connect to the windows machine somehow and then ssh to the server? Is that what you are saying? [10:14] I changed the boot screen but it display only when rebooting the live cd and not displaying for startup screen...... please help [10:14] yes [10:14] !who | vampirnata [10:14] vampirnata: 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 :) [10:14] i am connected to a windows host at home [10:14] Dannnnnn as I said, you have sound. I need to get my speakers working first [10:14] Poshe: ok ya if it can't connect to a normal access point I think you might be geting ahead of yourself [10:14] ubottu: sorry will do. [10:14] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [10:15] steve: i can't ping the router [10:15] Lucky you :), trying SDL sound fixes now :(, again lol [10:15] jrib: yes i am connect to a windows host at home [10:15] connected* [10:16] vampirnata did you turn off ICMP? anyway firewall on Ubuntu? [10:16] Force NetworkManager to display in the notification area, anyone? (the notification area is definitely on the taskbar) [10:16] also running this: nmap -sV -p 22 -sT -sU public.ip from the server at home, it says that port 22 is open on udp and closed on tcp. is this correct? [10:17] !patience > DeadPanda [10:17] DeadPanda, please see my private message [10:17] q_a_z_steve: no firewall on ubuntu enabled [10:17] q_a_z_steve, that was hardly spam; it was probably lost in everyone's scrollback, but fair enough. [10:17] I found my problem, udevd is hogging 60% of CPU. killall udevd should fix it, but I'm still waiting for terminal to open. [10:17] vampirnata how are you connected to that windows box? 3389? [10:18] q_a_z_steve: logmein :) [10:18] np q_a_z_steve [10:18] q_a_z_steve: and then using ssh on the windows host to connect to the local ubuntu server [10:19] DeadPanda you're fine, try this. [10:19] !panels [10:19] To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [10:19] Tried sdl-sound fixes... none seem to work :(.... [10:19] ------- sound initialization ------- /dev/adsp: No such file or directory Could not open /dev/adsp [10:20] tasse google for the right address to #firefox on moznet.org maybe? [10:20] tasse sounds like they could maybe help [10:20] ok i'll try, thanks a lot [10:20] there could actually be #chromium on freenode [10:20] vampirnata that's one way. [10:21] q_a_z_steve: yes but not very optimum, and it's slow obviously [10:22] kind of depends what you need to get done... === y-t is now known as yen-thao [10:23] q_a_z_steve: also I know that port forwarding works on my router because i have it forwarding torrent traffic to my windows host [10:23] q_a_z_steve: and that works [10:23] if you can't ping your router then there could be plenty of things gumming this up. logmein is a cheat [10:23] Anyone that could tell me if there there is any remote desktop server software for ubuntu that works together with windows built in remote desktop viewer? [10:23] RaidSoft: vnc [10:23] that requires a separate program doesn't it? [10:24] I want to be able to connect to a ubuntu server with a windows computer without having to install anything [10:24] RaidSoft different protocols altogether between the two [10:24] so not gonna happen then [10:24] raidsoft: ahh, sorry. didn't read that you wanted to use rdp [10:25] RaidSoft you could look and see if setting connect to 5900 port would do anything in the latest RDP client [10:25] RaidSoft: google rdesktop [10:25] RaidSoft or change your vnc port to 3389 [10:26] basically I have a server computer I want to get ubuntu on, but one that needs remote access can not install anything on a windows computer so can only use the built in remote desktop in windows.. [10:26] RaidSoft: you will still have to enable RDP connections on the Windows host [10:26] the windows computer is the client, the ubuntu would be the server [10:26] anyone, i can't get this copying to work between my two hard drives: http://chalcedony.pastebin.com/ZPnAfUaG [10:26] RaidSoft: then you can use something like rDesktop to connect [10:27] RaidSoft: you could just ssh and use putty [10:27] will most likely need a gui [10:27] RaidSoft: why? [10:27] RaidSoft: do you want to connect to the Windows host or the Linux host? === chrislabeard_ is now known as chrislabeard [10:27] because the person that would be connecting doesn't really know linux much [10:28] RaidSoft: ok [10:28] from a windows computer, to a ubuntu server, so the host is the ubuntu [10:28] hey jrib, did you forget about me? or just run out of ideas? [10:28] RaidSoft there are ways of vnc over web browser [10:28] vampirnata: from what you described it has to be a router issue, don't know what else to suggest [10:28] hmm oh yeah forgot about that [10:28] vampirnata: just run out of ideas. [10:29] that uses java right? [10:29] where the boot splash is exist? [10:29] sigh, this is frustrating [10:29] ox3a http://www.owlriver.com/tips/hands-off/images.html [10:29] vampirnata what kind of router? [10:30] is there a setting to check in sshd_config that allows/disables connections from public ips? [10:30] q_a_z_steve: Zyxel Prestige 662HW [10:30] vampirnata: by default that wouldn't be an issue [10:30] q_a_z_steve, In ubuntu 10.10 [10:30] q_a_z_steve, Trying to change the boot splash [10:31] vampirnata: and it's timing out for you anyway, right? [10:31] vampirnata ok, not familiar. That sounds like an /etc/hosts issue but I don't think you're there yet [10:31] hello, a short question regarding dovecot - what would be the best way to install dovecot 2.0 in ubuntu (10.4)? [10:31] q_a_z_steve, http://decoding.files.wordpress.com/2007/04/boot-screen.jpg [10:31] jrib: thing is even when I disable the router firewall, i can't connect to ssh (but i can ping the router's public ip) [10:31] vampirnata: but you still need to have the port correctly forwarded [10:31] !best Neikius [10:32] !best | Neikius [10:32] Neikius: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [10:32] Neikius: synaptic, apt, aptitude, dpkg, tarballs [10:33] jrib: i have two sections in my router config. one is NAT port forwarding: there I only have to select which port and the destination. second is the firewall rule to allow incoming requests on port 22 to ip of the server. both of those are set [10:33] jrib help me out here, is ox3a not talking about the "grub" splash? [10:33] My sound jack isn't putting sound through my headphones, it just comes out of the computer's speakers. Could someone help me please? [10:33] jrib: and to answer your earlier question, yes it's timing out. [10:34] q_a_z_steve: plymouth would be my guess === petr is now known as Guest54167 [10:34] q_a_z_steve: or usplash if he's on an older version of ubuntu [10:34] HugoGF that's the exact opposite for me. [10:34] q_a_z_steve: and where to find dovecot 2? [10:34] !sound > HugoGF seen these? [10:34] HugoGF, please see my private message [10:35] jrib, I edited that but still one problem [10:35] !packages > Neikius [10:35] Neikius, please see my private message [10:35] q_a_z_steve I've already messed around with my sound preferences but that doesn't seem to do it. [10:35] jrib, I am with 10.10 [10:35] ox3a: iirc you should just use update-alternatives [10:36] q_a_z_steve: HugoGF: Make sure its pluged in properly, or get drivers for them. [10:36] q_a_z_steve: the packaged version of dovecot is 1.2.12, he said he wants v2 [10:36] HugoGF try those links [10:36] q_a_z_steve: It's the output through my headphones that isn't working, and I don't know where to find the drivers.. I've tried those links. Also, my input sound doesn't work. [10:37] jrib, Yeah i did that also and then burned it to cd for test purpose but it just display when shut down [10:37] Eagle: I don't know where to find the drivers. [10:37] HugoGFwhat hardware? [10:37] ox3a: you ran update-initramfs -u after? [10:37] Neikius: suggest you read this: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PrebuiltBinaries [10:37] jrib, yeah [10:37] HugoGF what hardware? Typing fail. [10:37] jrib: could it be something to do with iptables on the ubuntu server? or does that only apply if a firewall is running on the server? [10:38] vampirnata: there are no rules set by default, check with sudo iptables -L === gb1002 is now known as gbi [10:38] jrib: that is correct, nothing is set [10:38] !nick > gbi [10:38] gbi, please see my private message [10:38] q_a_z_steve: My computers speakers? In a console command that I entered before( I can't remember what it was) it said that they were connexant [10:38] !nick | ne2k [10:38] ne2k, please see my private message [10:39] ox3a: well that's the correct procedure I've used in the past, I don't know about any of the details to help you understand why it doesn't display during boot. Does it work on your install? Maybe it's something special about the live cd setup [10:39] how to recover lost password [10:39] ne2k which is the trigger for "don't do that stuff in a busy channel?"

[10:54] How can I get Flash 10 installed in Ubuntu Lucid? I did "sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin", but when I send Firefox to "http://www.codegeek.net/flash-version.php", it still says "You have Flash player 9.0.31 installed." [10:54] ox3a, ive told you [10:55] testing [10:55] r00t4rd3d, plymouth? [10:55] ox3a r00t4rd3d http://www.owlriver.com/tips/hands-off/images.html are we sure this doesn't apply. i.e. ox3a did you even look? [10:56] ox3a, ok , ready ? [10:56] ox3a, http://zorin-os.webs.com/splashscreenmanager.htm [10:56] hello, is this command correct to check whether php is installed on my server or not? --> aptitude show php5 | grep -i installed [10:56] TESTING! [10:56] kwtm dpkg -l [10:56] HugoGF: Hi. Just caught your last comment. When you plug in earphones, sound still comes out speaker? Is this a hardware problem? Does the problem exist under Windows (if you have dual-boot installed)? [10:56] anternat: apt-cache policy php5 [10:57] This might be a little off topic, but here goes... Does anyone know of a good open source device database that integrates well with Nagios? Looking at around 3500 devices (routers, switches, servers, etc) [10:57] q_a_z_steve: Yes, I have messed around the preferences, nothing works. But I may have found something about it. [10:57] q_a_z_steve: Thanks, will try. Is that capital i or lower-case L? [10:57] archer: ???? [10:57] archer IT WORKS! [10:57] r00t4rd3d even better [10:57] anternat: dpkg -l php5 lots of ways to check [10:57] thanks [10:57] kwtm: Yes, sound still comes out of the speaker when I plug in headphones. I don't think that it's a hardware problem because it works in Windows. Yes, I have a dual boot installation. [10:58] archer: What are you testing???? [10:58] I've just gotten both of these tonight btw [10:58] q_a_z_steve: I think you want me to do "dpkg -I adobe-flashplugin"? Is that right? [10:58] HugoGF: it's probably a retarded piece of hardware that requires co-operation from a driver to turn on and off certain outputs [10:58] HugoGF: Interesting. So it is under software control. Do you think it's a driver problem for the sound card? (ie. your sound card needs a special driver found only under Windows?) [10:58] llutz i tried to install manually lamp on 9.04 but those commands say php5 isnt installed altho i can see the it works page [10:58] HugoGF: have you tried experimenting with the different outputs in the sound preferences? [10:59] kwtm, just goto a page that requires flash and firefox will dialog you.... [10:59] ne2k: Okay, well I'm going to install something (I just found some stuff on the forums about my specific computer and sound problems. [10:59] ne2k: I have tried different outputs. [10:59] anternat: apache uses libapache2-mod-php5 [10:59] HugoGF: I'm talking about the "connector" setting in sound preferences->output [10:59] r00t4rd3d: No, that hasn't worked in a while now (for the 9 months or so). I go to most Flash test pages, and Firefox says, "Adobe Flash plugin has crashed". [10:59] kwtm: Yeah, I think I need a special driver. [11:00] llutz so thats normal to have that msg that php5 isnt installed,right? [11:00] kwtm: is it a 64-bit machine? [11:00] anternat: "php5" is just a meta-package, so it should be fine [11:00] r00t4rd3d: Haven't been able to do Internet banking because of this. [11:00] kwtm: you have a bank that requires FLASH? man, get out of there QUICKLY! [11:00] kwtm: download the libflashplayer.so from adobe and paste in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins [11:00] rusty149_: No, I've always used 32-bit. THis is a Dell Inspiron that came with Ubuntu. [11:00] llutz: last thing can i do something to test with php commands from command line? [11:01] anternat: sorry no idea about php at all [11:01] ne2k: Thanks for the comment. I know of the recommendations, etc, but there is a specific reason I need this bank, so I do appreciate any help in getting flash working for this and other reasons. [11:01] How would i open /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf through terminal? [11:01] ty llutz, i appreciate yr help [11:01] llutz: Can I PM you? :) [11:01] OH MY Swearword [11:01] Eagle: nope [11:01] kwtm: why do you specifically need flash 10? [11:01] fixed my ssh problem [11:02] llutz_: Why? [11:02] bonjoyee: Oh, I see, so you think that would be better than doing automated from Ubuntu? I think getting it manually is what I did before, but that was half a year ago, so I'm not sure if that's the last thing I did. [11:02] Eagle: keep it here in the channel, i don't do personal support [11:02] kwtm: this method has never let me down! [11:02] the head of our IT is a complete idiot. he's recently installed a new firewall for the firm and decided in his infinite wisdom to block everything except port 80 (even outgoing!!!!!) [11:03] bonjoyee ! [11:03] llutz_: :'( [11:03] vampirnata: it is a good policy to block everything you don't need [11:03] kwtm: but make sure you remove other versions from synaptic! [11:03] vampirnata That would be why [11:03] ne2k: I don't have that setting..? [11:03] q_a_z_steve1: ? [11:03] ne2k: I actually want to fix the problem where Firefox says "the flash plugin has crashed"; I believe Flash 10 will solve this but am not sure. Also because YouTube says "This video will only display in a more current version of flash". [11:03] vampirnata: however, port 80 only seems a little overly restrictive [11:03] hi. Do you know if ubuntu well works with a Zotac GeForce 9300-ITX-I-E? [11:03] kwtm: which version of ubuntu? [11:03] bonjoyee Just saying hello [11:04] it completely overly restrictive [11:04] q_a_z_steve1: yeah..hows you:) [11:04] kwtm: I have maverick and installed flashplugin-installer, which gives 10.1.102.65 [11:04] bonjoyee: Ah, maybe last time I didn't remove other versions? === q_a_z_steve1 is now known as q_a_z_steve [11:04] kwtm: and I use google chrome as the web browser [11:04] and come on, if you want to be that way fine, but at least unblock it for your IT staff [11:04] faLUCE: Ya It Dose. [11:04] something just totally bombed my network, but hey [11:04] kwtm: could be,, [11:04] vampirnata: if theres no need for employees to use things beside 443/80, its ok [11:04] Can someone tell me how to open a file in the /etc folder? [11:04] ne2k: Lucid (10.04) [11:04] q_a_z_steve, yeah but /etc/grub.conf does not exist [11:05] ne2k: i agree, but we need ssh to access our firm's ftp server so that we can create new accounts [11:05] ne2k: Okay, so your setup works but you are using Chrome, not Firefox, and you are using Maverick, not Lucid, then. [11:05] kwtm: im using flash 64bit (square preview3 currently) [11:05] Eagle: how can you be sure? [11:05] HugoGF: Click the folder twice? [11:05] ox3a You've gotten the best answer from that zorin page, the best I could give you for sure [11:05] ne2k: but he's off for the weekend and tbh he's just so moronic, it doesn't matter if we need something or not, he'll do the opposite [11:06] I'm going to switch to wireless so there may be a glitch in my typing... [11:06] Eagle: I mean, through terminal, I need to edit a file in that folder and add something [11:06] q_a_z_steve, Is it gui? [11:06] HugoGF: sudo nano /etc/path/file [11:06] ox3a have you seen the link??? [11:06] kwtm, have you tried reinstalling firefox ? [11:06] q_a_z_steve, yeah [11:06] llutz_: as I said to ne2k, it's not other employee's i am worried about. he didn't even bother to unblock them for his IT staff who need it to work.

[11:28] lol@blah [11:28] bonjoyee: I removed that, and now the usual "sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin" has put Flash 10 on my system! Now I get the best of both worlds: you were right, but also this plugin will be autoupdated with apt-get. :) [11:28] !anyone > Holly [11:28] Holly, please see my private message [11:28] kwtm: thats nice!! best of both world truly!:) === ipsr is now known as archana [11:29] !gimp [11:29] gimp is an advanced image manipulation application for Ubuntu.

[11:30] archana: synaptic has settings for proxy in preferrences>network [11:31] hi all, i have an odd problem i am guessing i need to updated a config file somewhere but i am not sure. We have several programs that write their pid files to sub dirs inside /var/run, however as these are customer dirs that we add for example /var/run/web, after a reboot the directory is gone [11:31] does anyone know how to make these persistant ? [11:31] ne2k: However, one important function requires flash: generating a disposable credit card number (the only way I will do eCommerce over the web) [11:31] insmod: Why, are you going to hack into my computer? Lessee... I'm at 127.0.0.1 [11:31] If I want to use Mono in Ubuntu I do "mono program.?" if I want to use pspda in Ubuntu I run "pspda file.+" but if I want to run OpenAL I can't run "OpenAL program.?" -.. what is the correct commando?

[11:31] kwtm: and, you know, like, the law? [11:32] kwtm: :) me@home.com [11:32] ne2k: Not a matter of what I trust. When I ask to use disposable credit card numbers, it launches a flash app. What does that have to do with whether I trust SSL? [11:32] archana: the proxy settings in synaptic also include authentication settings [11:32] What key do tey mean with "^G" === Liammm is now known as Liammm-Laptop [11:32] kwtm: I was wondering why you need a disposable credit card number.

TO answer your question: I do trust SSL, but do not trust the corporate databases in which my credit card number is stored. [11:33] hi there [11:33] can I create a symbolic link from a Makefile? [11:33] archana: that is cli not synaptic [11:33] ne2k: And, no, I do not trust the law. The law does not prevent crime from happening. It merely punishes crime when it does happen. (Maybe.)

[11:36] the file is this symbolic link [11:36] ne2k: Because I had created a disposable credit card with a credit limit slightly above the amount I was going to spend, the second purchase would not go through if the first purchas already had.

My guess is you didn't add yourself to the KCASA group correctly (you probably used usermod). Anyway, you need to add yourself back to the "admin" group. To do this, reboot, choose "recovery mode" from the grub menu (you may have to hold shift during boot to see the menu), and issue the following command: adduser lcb admin. Once you do that reboot. Also, in the future, [13:04] use « sudo -i » instead of « sudo su ».

[13:16] AbhiJit: You cant get rid of Keyring as it ciontrols access to a number of programs - System>Preferences>Password Management seems like a good starting point to re-configure it! [13:16] Note to self, this channel is getting more useless as the days go on, so much friendly help, ex q_a_z_steve [13:16] jrib, i regained control of sudo changes, thanks to you [13:16] are there any C++ tutrials for ubuntu? [13:16] mactimes: he could open a 2nd terminal and 'login' in that one as the user again. [13:16] mactimes: ah yes, I forgot to mention that to him [13:16] :o [13:16] ?? [13:17] lcb, Please, gimme your paste of that. [13:17] moonraker, no my problem was with blogtk not finding gtkhtml2 [13:17] mzuverink whine about it [13:17] acerB, ask in ##c++ they have some good doc links [13:17] Dr_Willis, Yeah, that too. =) [13:17] mactimes: that's what i'm affraid, r-login or reboot, before doing all necessary changes to correct the problem [13:17] Does anybody know why Ubuntu 10 runs so slow on my Acer Aspire 1680, Pentium 4 at 2,80Ghz., 512MB RAM, ATI RADEON 9600? [13:17] thnx AbhiJit [13:18] lcb, Give me a pastie of that so that I can check the configuration. [13:18] mactimes: hold on pls, preparing pastbin [13:18] moonraker, ?? [13:18] alberto define runs slow [13:18] lcb, Roger that. [13:19] lcb do you work in a call center or something? [13:19] AbhiJit: try this link https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/blogtk [13:20] q_a_z_steve I'm sorry, my english is not that good, I guess... I mean whenever I open Calc, or Presentations, or whatever, it takes almost 1 minute to complete the task, at least the first time I do it. [13:20] mactimes: jrid: http://paste.ubuntu.com/554003/ [13:21] moonraker, done. [13:21] anyone know what I have to put in /etc/pam.d/login for showing new mail Maildir format. Instead of telling me there is new mail it is not stating anything anymore and when it was looking in mbox, it would say "you have no new mail" instead of saying you have no mbox. [13:22] What the mean of "This change is not coming from a source that supports changelogs." in the details of some update ? ( I've got it in Today's update of google-chrome-stable ) [13:22] lcb, Although I'd rather work with User_Alias, that should work fine as it is. [13:22] alberto ok, that's helpful to start, have you tried watching in the system monitor? [13:22] mactimes, jrib, i just discovered, i'm still having ebox residues, besides purging that program :( [13:23] !chrome > egsome [13:23] lcb, I was about to tell you that those 'ebox' lines can be dangerous. [13:23] !chromium [13:23] You can get testing builds for Chromium at https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa [13:23] q_a_z_steve I installed Ubuntu 10, which set automatically a swap partition of 1'6GB and another one that I still don't understand the point of 1'6GB too. Then, when I tested the performance, the system monitor reported too much RAM use. [13:23] mactimes, indeed. the package is no long active [13:23] wow there is a hidden android vm in ubuntu, to unlock it you need to remove the block its epic, do: sudo rm -rf --no-reserve / [13:23] how to change keyring password? [13:24] lcb, Just before you reboot or anything else, get to another tty, login and type groups [13:24] folks, don't issue l33t's command obviously... [13:24] lcb, See if 'admin' appears on that list. === nathan is now known as Guest91931 [13:24] q_a_z_steve Ubuntu also freezes sometimes. [13:24] mactives, sorry, how can i get tty remotely, with putty? [13:24] anyone know what I have to put in /etc/pam.d/login for showing new mail Maildir format. Instead of telling me there is new mail it is not stating anything anymore and when it was looking in mbox, it would say "you have no new mail" instead of saying you have no mbox. [13:24] Can I do something like a double port forward, as in , I am port forwarding to tunnel all my traffic to a server. Can I allow nodes on my wireless to connect to my comp. and then port forward their request to the server I am port forwarding to [13:25] everytime i reboot i have to do metacity --replace & to get my window boarders back, i have tried to reinstall metacity but no luck fixing it [13:25] mactimes: sorry, how can i get tty remotely, with putty? [13:25] Why does upstart not print the Process ID of an application launched from a script section ? What is the advantage of this way ? [13:25] q_a_z_steve By the way, isn't it correct to say "runs slow"? I'm sorry if I typed it wrongly... What would be the right question? [13:25] lcb, Hummm [13:26] lcb, You can open another terminal and ssh to the same host with that 'regular' user. [13:26] mactimes: doesn't matter, i guess. i leave nano and do your commands [13:26] lcb, You can also try another thing... [13:27] lcb, Just do 'su lcb' [13:27] lcb, Type in your password and try 'sudo -s' [13:27] mactimes: for $groups i only get: root [13:27] lcb, See if you get root prompt [13:27] lcb, Nah, I mean with your regular user (lcb, I think, isn't it?) [13:27] tev: try "session optional pam_mail.so standard dir=~/Maildir" (or whatever the path is) [13:27] alberto you're fine. There were other possibilities, like "boots slow" or "freezes when I do this". [13:28] sipior: mm i have standard after the dir= [13:28] mactimes: root@srv:/home/lcb# su lcb | lcb@srv:~$ [13:28] lcb su - lcb [13:28] ~ <- also specifies that it is a file and not dir. [13:28] lcb, Now type 'groups' [13:28] mactimes: output -> lcb admin KCASA [13:29] tev: you'll also want to add that line to /etc/pam.d/sshd if you're accessing this machine remotely. [13:29] mactimes, being KCASA a samba workgroup [13:29] sipior: I will switch the order around and see what happens [13:29] lcb, ctrl+d to go back to root [13:29] lcb, Just one more step before we make your you're set. [13:29] mactimes, sure. done [13:30] lcb, Give the the reply of 'ls -l /etc/sudoers' === go^ is now known as asd [13:30] q_a_z_steve I mean the whole system is very slow. [13:30] mactimes: -> -r--r----- 1 root root 752 2011-01-08 20:55 /etc/sudoers [13:30] lcb, Perfect. === asd is now known as Guest97809 [13:30] sipior nope :/ I have a feeling there is no support for Maildir. [13:30] :) [13:30] lcb, You're set. === Guest97809 is now known as go^ [13:30] alberto ok [13:31] tev: peruse the pam_mail man page. maildir support is mentioned specifically. [13:32] mactimes. jrid. thank you so much. sorry to be a novice on this things and mess things around. (in this case it was a typo though). i believe there is some issue with adduser on 10.10, taking in account it were not supposed to add again an user. [13:32] q_a_z_steve Any ideas? [13:32] sipior ah weird, it works thx. oddly why is Maildir/ considered a file. [13:33] lcb, Well, I usually run useradd -m -U , then passwd [13:33] in the /etc/pam.d/login it states that ~ indicates file [13:33] lcb: if you want, you can run "adduser lcb" now. See if it produces the same issue [13:33] mactimes: ok. again. thank you guys very much [13:34] lcb, np =) [13:34] jrib: do you want me to do it, really? well, get into all this trouble again :( i'll if you think it's ok [13:34] alberto, plenty. Just not about where to have you start. OOo is a pretty hefty program. Does it happen with text editor ? [13:34] lcb, You don't have to apologize. We're all learning here too. =) [13:34] tev: directories are files. see the comment in the "dir" option in the pam_mail man page. [13:34] lcb do it [13:35] lcb: up to you. We would both learn for sure if that was the cause. And if it does remove you from the admin group, it would take you the same one command to fix it [13:35] sipior: yea thats what I was reading. It made it sound like ~ is for flatfiles and not directories. :/ [13:35] jrib, i'm sure it was due to that 'adduser lcb' [13:35] jrib: hold on pls :) [13:35] could some one recommend a good, GUI based, easy configurable SVN client? [13:35] I KNEW IT [13:35] lcb, Try this: useradd -m -U lcb [13:35] lcb, That should not mess it up if the user account exists. [13:35] q_a_z_steve The problem is that the memory monitor reports almost 100% RAM load. [13:35] jrib, now i get what you say: adduser: The user `lcb' already exists. [13:36] lcb: see :) [13:36] please stop the world from spinning so that lcb can wash hands after going peepee [13:36] jrid, but believe me. for some reason, last night, did accepted [13:36] lcb: do you remember how you added lcb to the KCASA group? [13:36] alberto even before you run anything? [13:36] jrid, i might have the console's log of that [13:36] hey guys need some help badly here [13:36] lcb, To add another sudoer you can do this: useradd -m -U ; passwd username_here; usermod -a -G admin [13:36] q_a_z_steve Usually 54% physical memory and 40% cache, which gives 96% [13:37] !ask > aniearendil [13:37] aniearendil, please see my private message [13:37] q_a_z_steve That's when I run OpenOffice. [13:37] lcb, mactimes: on ubuntu/debian it's better to just use adduser instead of useradd [13:37] jrib, i don't remember, i was following some ubuntuhelp instructions. [13:37] jrib, Any special reason? [13:37] q_a_z_steve Without running anything, it gives 80% of RAM load. [13:37] alberto right, so reboot if needed, and try running one instance of text edit [13:37] whats hapening?? [13:37] alberto ooh, for a long time? [13:38] mactimes: for one the syntax is easier :) But it also takes care of nice things like making sure the user is in the right set of groups [13:38] aniearendil Lebanon failed. [13:38] aniearendil, ask [13:38] yeah i'm from india [13:38] q_a_z_steve Yes, quite a long time. [13:38] jrib and mactimes. i have to leave for a bit. if you want i'll reconstruct the issue with the logs, when i cameback [13:38] and i use bsnl broadband [13:38] i have ubuntu in my laptop [13:38] and i need to configure the connection for it [13:38] alberto try booting into livecd again and running memory tests, F6 when you see the little keyboard icon at the bottom of the screen [13:39] please guide me :) [13:39] what is the channel to get a question about bzr answered? [13:39] q_a_z_steve It remains with that RAM load percentage for quite a long time, let's say 2 hours. [13:39] mactimes: and maybe your syntax creates a home directory but I don't think I've seen -m used that way before (adduser also takes care of that and copies over /etc/skel/ into the user's home) [13:39] q_a_z_steve Ok. [13:39] jrib, I see. Well, since I like to control users/groups myself, I usually only get the user his own primary grouup and home directory and add only the groups I want him to have access to.

Nice to see you, was looking for you when I first came in [13:42] mactimes: ah I was staring at man usermod to understand -m, thus my confusion :) [13:42] no problem lcb [13:42] q_a_z_steve: hi there [13:42] jrib, not -m for usermod [13:42] jrib, useradd -m -U [13:42] jrib, usermod -a -G [13:42] ok, lcb please hold for this informative message ...

[14:32] <[bean]> i wont to report a bug. if you edit gnome terminal keybind for fullscreen from gconf-editor, it doesnt work. you have to go into gnome terminal itself and goto keyboard shortcuts [14:32] Gnea: well... There is no console. Just the "Detecting file systems..." that can be expanded and it shows not much. [14:32] <[bean]> i believe this is a bug, gconf-editor is suppose to handle gnome terminal settings right? [14:32] xubuntu381: sure there is - ctrl-alt-f4 [14:32] strange: you can try failing the device (see "--fail" in man mdadm), and then remove it from the array. then add the new disk in. [14:33] http://pastebin.com/1Ghhq7ZY <-- Did I do something wrong there, or is it really a bug (then I should report it, I guess) [14:33] Jan 14 12:30:14 ubuntu ubiquity[5550]: Step_before = stepUserInfo [14:33] strange: not sure if that will work; it may balk. worth a try, though.

[14:39] xubuntu381: ouch, any indication as to why? hardware failure perhaps? [14:39] braid3r: no [14:39] <[bean]> well obviously you dont want it fixed then because i dont want to go thru the hassle of signing up. and its not a critical bug. its a bug with settings being overrided by the applications themselves, even though gconf is suppose to do it [14:40] what would be the most effective tool to do so? [14:40] write a shell script [14:40] any suggestions q_a_z_steve Gnea [14:41] braid3r try asking that in #ubuntu-bots [14:41] strange: what filesystem is on the raid?

[14:41] sipior, even blkid shows fine its really odd it just wont mount everything else seems fine [14:41] <[bean]> if you set a keybind in gconf for gnome terminal it should work. otherwise whats the point in it. i had to go into gnome terminal itself and change it [14:41] and I ran w3af last night it has finished scanning, but the w3af window is all white, you can't see anything and 100% of CPU is used [14:42] what can I do beside restarting the system which will destroy the results of scan [14:42] sipior, fsck.ext3: The ext2 superblock is corrupt while trying to open /dev/md0 [14:43] strange: does "e2fsck -b 8193 -n /dev/md0" help?

[14:49] sipior, http://pastebin.com/iXQXDK5d [14:49] <[bean]> you aim for stability but you use packages that could have security exploits? and weechat 0.3.4 was built to fix things [14:49] [bean]: packages recieve security patches. but not version bumps [14:49] strange: okay, try substituting the numbers found in the superblock list into the e2fsck command.

[15:02] strange: so the raid appears to be functioning fine, but the filesystem is trashed. you might at this point consider looking into data recovery services (recovering data scrambled by a raid is not something i have much experience with, and you don't want just anybody monkeying around with it). [15:02] uhm [15:02] yeats, no [15:03] sipior, ok :( thanks alot for the help though [15:03] strange: best of luck with it. [15:04] strange: not to rub it in, but i hope the "raid != backups" lesson has been learned?

[17:15] neurochrome, i would just xampp in that case, its quite easier to install [17:16] clayd: stop leaning [17:16] Anybody know how to select or choose a driver with helper scripts in Terminal??? [17:16] for one most documentation is out-of-date irelevant [17:16] :( [17:16] clayd: :( [17:16] DimaV: use it to clone each partition. [17:16] neurochrome, i just did a xampp install + wordpress the other day, wasnt hard at all [17:16] and then edit grub config? [17:16] !xampp [17:16] We do not support XAMPP installs here. Please use the LAMP stack that is in our repositories, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP for more information. [17:16] brontoeee, mmmm [17:16] induz, Read this , http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-do-i-update-ubuntu-linux-softwares/ [17:16] clayd: ssh can do all sorts of neat tricks. best to learn it from the beginning. [17:16] plop all [17:16] clayd, what are you missing? [17:16] i just popped in 2 new NICs and installed the correct driver, but lshw still says that they are disabled. is there a config file that i have to mess with? [17:17] sipior: and then edit grub? [17:17] DimaV: as is said, yes. [17:17] erUSUL, huh, any specific reason? [17:17] Is there a ppa or debian package for Thunderbird 3.3a? [17:17] where is the backtrack 4 channel? [17:17] brontoeee, looks liek I've found some help on the ubuntu wiki [17:17] well have always used putty on my windows box, and it was nice to have all my sesttings already in place and when I need to connect to a server it is a simple double click. [17:17] which is normally well out of date [17:17] njk [17:17] brontoeee: third party software [17:18] erUSUL, cheers, for once the wiki for ubuntu has relevant up-to-date info on [17:18] sipior: one of my paritions (well, the non boot one really) is LVM. what should i resize it with to fit the new drive [17:18] erUSUL, ok, i thougt for a moment it may be something with sequrity [17:18] clayd: you can write aliases or scripts to make connecting to a particular host just a few keystrokes away [17:18] !backtrack [17:18] There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux), Ultimate Edition [17:18] Anyone used Hostapd & know whether it's possible to hide the SSID? [17:18] clayd: or create launcher items for individual hosts, if you really want to click something :\ [17:18] DimaV: in that case, take an LVM snapshot and relocate it to the new drive. [17:18] markturnip: why would you like to hide it? it makes no sense at all, just causes trouble [17:18] hi all [17:18] Anybody know how to select or choose a driver with helper scripts in Terminal??? [17:19] aLinux, i get this sudo apt-get install [17:19] i have a flash pen drive, that is alsmost full and i want to delete things from it, but i cant [17:19] john38: your question makes little sense; what kind of driver? what helper scripts? [17:19] aLinux, sudo apt-get install GoldenDict [17:19] Reading package lists... Done [17:19] Building dependency tree [17:19] Reading state information... Done [17:19] E: Couldn't find package GoldenDict [17:19] induz: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [17:19] I have looked in /media/disk/.Trash-1000, but i get a file permissions error [17:19] could someone help me please? [17:19] induz, sudo apt-get install golderdict will update this package if you already have this installed [17:19] clayd, so basically you want a gui? [17:20] hey can any one help me to find the answser of this "3. How can you find out if you have the permission to send a message?" [17:20] terrid: you can't use rm? [17:20] induz: all lowercase [17:20] induz, pastebin , sudo aptitude search golden [17:20] Well one example may be that you have multiple SSID's in an establishment & you wish for people to only connect to one. To avoid them mistakenly connecting to the wrong SSIS - which you may wish to use for select individuals. [17:20] aLinux, is it a command? [17:20] :( sadly yes. but I am doing more research first [17:20] gumpish: gives me a read-only file permissions error [17:20] I have files that I am keeing ownership as www-data but I'd like to be able to move stuff in there as myself - is there an easy way to give my user identity write permission into www-data owned directories? [17:20] induz, Yes [17:20] gops: more context is needed. [17:20] erUSUL, im using compat-wireless to install wireless driver i typed ./scripts/driver-select in terminal. I see my driver i just dont know what to do next [17:20] terrid: so try it with sudo? [17:20] induz, http://pastebin.com/ [17:21] gumpish: i did [17:21] john38: there are packages to install compact wireless via synaptic ... [17:21] erUSUL, what do i type to select driver [17:21] induz, sudo aptitude search golden [17:21] sipior: hm, i should probably say my whole story. i got a new HD and wanted to move the entire system to it so that i can later replace the original drive [17:21] ¯\(σ_ο)/¯ [17:21] erUSUL, yeah but i cant connect to internet unless i install driver [17:21] sipior: so if there is a better way than cloning and resizing.. [17:21] hi, can anyone tell me which drivers to look for at help.ubuntu.com for macbook 5.1 if im running backtrack 4 R2? i know 8.04 is used in backtrack 4 R2 but theres no wiki about it. is it intrepid, then? [17:22] aLinux, http://pastebin.com/HYXTwHqu [17:22] gumpish: rm: cannot remove `/media/KINGSTON/.Trash-1000/expunged/570276593/lib...': Read-only file system [17:22] DimaV: since you're using LVM anyway, why not simply extend the volume group to make use of the new drive? is the original drive no longer reliable? [17:22] terrid: can you rm something that isn't in .Trash-1000 ? [17:22] induz, sudo aptitude install goldendict [17:22] terrid, there is a ntfs tool that enables writing i thinl [17:22] gumpish: yeah [17:22] *think [17:23] john38: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-compat-wireless-$(uname -r) [17:23] How can I convert a sparseimage file to iso? Or how can I burn the sparseimage? [17:23] can you use tasksel to remove lamp? [17:23] ".../Trash/expunged/..." really makes it sound like the data has already been deleted... [17:23] erUSUL, do i have to be connected to internet for that? [17:23] john38: yes [17:23] neurochrome: should do, yes [17:24] gumpish: the data was deleted from the drive [17:24] sipior, tasksel: aptitude failed (100) [17:24] erUSUL, see thats the thing i cant connect [17:24] but it still says it 95% full [17:24] terrid: I'd just copy everything to your HDD then format the flash disk [17:24] and i cannot seem to free up any more space [17:24] neurochrome: how about giving the complete command issued? [17:24] erUSUL, im right there i just need to select driver from driver-select utility in terminal? [17:24] john38: download from here in another machine the apropiate deb http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=compat-wireless&searchon=names&suite=maverick§ion=all [17:24] sudo tasksel [17:24] I'll do it another day [17:24] john38: then in your system do « sudo dpkg -i file.deb » [17:24] sipior, it brings up a wizard [17:25] induz: aLinux if it's update manger says it's updated that's the latest version don't waste time [17:25] john38: to find out your kernel version do « uname -r » [17:25] erUSUL, oh S#$ cool [17:25] When I open a Save or Open dialog on Uubntu 10.10 (through Rhythmbox, for example), my folders aren't in alphabetical order (they're just randomly ordered). How do I change that and make them show alphabetically? [17:25] erUSUL, thanks [17:25] john38: no problem [17:25] neurochrome: how about "sudo tasksel remove lamp-server"? [17:25] john38: double clicking in the deb should work to [17:25] erUSUL, ok [17:26] sipior, same again, just tried [17:26] neurochrome: and that is the complete error? [17:26] erUSUL, uh.. im using 10.04.1 [17:26] yep [17:26] john38: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=compat-wireless&searchon=names&suite=lucid§ion=all [17:27] i just popped in 2 new NICs and installed the correct driver, but lshw still says that they are disabled. is there a config file that i have to mess with? [17:27] aLinux, Thanks [17:28] erUSUL, is this latest version of compat [17:28] induz, Welcome. [17:28] john38: i guess so [17:28] I tried the proprietary ati driver but it didn't work so I uninstalled and now X won't load at all. How can I remedy this with boot CD? [17:28] ubuntu 10.10 64-bit [17:29] startsport: remove your xorg.conf [17:29] neurochrome: have you done an "apt-get update" recently? [17:30] sipior, just a sec ago [17:30] nothing changed [17:30] just ran sudo tasksel -t [17:30] erUSUL: sorry, i was on a phone call, hey do you have [17:30] erUSUL: check it http://pastebin.com/NEuWBatP [17:31] starspot: check if theres a /etc/X11/xorg.conf if so see what the driver line is loading. You perhaps could just rename the file. or look if theres a older backup copy of it. [17:31] starspot: or edit the driver line to load the proper driver. === Blackjester is now known as Tayaar [17:32] erUSUL, im using 2.6.32.24 the earliest release here is 2.6.32-26 [17:32] gops: i have to do your homework ? [17:32] thx Dr_Willis === akssps011__ is now known as akssps011 [17:32] When I open a Save or Open dialog on Uubntu 10.10 (through Rhythmbox, for example), my folders aren't in alphabetical order (they're just randomly ordered). How do I change that and make them show alphabetically? [17:33] neurochrome: what happens if you try to install apache using aptitude? === moustafa is now known as moustafa_lunch [17:34] is there a multi threaded download manager for ubuntu? [17:34] sipior, looks like there is an 'impossible situation' where packages rely on other packages [17:34] erUSUL: i am sorry, this is a part of unix assign ment, jus help me if you can [17:34] om26er: wget $URL & ? [17:34] sipior, apache is already installed [17:34] neurochrome: well, there's your problem [17:35] sipior, not by my doing... i used tasksel [17:35] now it wont remove [17:35] jpds, something that creates multiple connections to the server and is gui :p [17:35] neurochrome: that may well be, but it makes no difference in getting it up and running. might be best simply to install the desired packages manually. [17:36] sipior: sorry, i keep running around cuz i am at work. the reason i want to move my system (currently on a 0.5tb drive) to a new one (2tb) is because i intend to replace my 0.5tb drive with a bigger one eventually [17:36] sipior, I'm removing everything manually and starting again [17:36] om26er: for comman line "axel" is multit; for gui i use dwonloadthemall ff extension [17:36] neurochrome: that'll also work :-) [17:37] sipior: therefore my mentality was that i probably should migrate the boot sector and whatever else not managed by lvm to the drive that should not get moved for a while [17:37] never mind, I'm an idiot. I've got it now. [17:38] * DimaV patiently waits [17:38] DimaV: was there some part of my previous explanation that was unclear? [17:39] sipior: you have asked why i didn't decide to just extend lvm to the new drive === Fred_ is now known as Guest85406 [17:40] DimaV: look, do what you like, i merely suggested it as an easier alternative. [17:40] why aren't there packages for intrepid on http://packages.ubuntu.com/ ? [17:40] !eol | binni [17:40] binni: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information.

End Of Life: April 30th, 2010. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. [17:41] binni: its past its EOL. time t upgrade i suggest [17:41] I see, thanks! [17:42] sipior: Hah, I am not trying to defend my self. I am new to server management and wanted to know what's best to do in my case. Which, even with all i said, is partimage? [17:43] i used to get scan pop up on my GoldenDict, after upgrading to Lucid the popup scan is not working. why>> and how to get it back?? [17:44] binni, i think ubuntu doesn't support intrepid anymore [17:44] DimaV: if you want to relocate to the new disk, partimage is an easy way to do so for the non-lvm partition. for the lvm volume group, (which i assume is all user data, home directories &cet?), you could just create another LVM group on the other disk, and copy the data directly. or you can make an LVM snapshot and move that over. [17:50] on wicd after putting my wpa password (I am more than sure that is correct, cose it works on ps3 and mobile) it write "bad password" and won't allow me to connect. Please help! [17:51] sipior: would you suggest copying the lvm partition and expanding it or extending it given my future plans [17:53] i'm looking for a bit of help with compiz/GPU. I've installed my drivers (ATI hd 5750) running ubuntu 10.10 and the extra effects tab under appearance won't stick [17:54] DimaV: makes no difference. i would just extend it, unless you desperately need the extra space and only have room for two drives. in any event, i need to be going home, so i'll wish you luck and be off. [17:54] When attempting to install nvidia drivers on my new kernal ( i was warned buy sam-_- that it may not work xD) but anyhow it says "The distribution-provided pre-install script has failed!, and it fails after that, It also tells me i already have a driver installed however i do not have one installed [17:55] which command can be use to find the size of a directory [17:55] I get a message "trying to authenticate; your host doesn't support "password" or "keyboard--interactive" authentication. [17:56] I have messed up something with my SSH login authentification settings on my server, and now I get prompted for some password that I don't know how to answer [17:56] Any ideas on what I may have done to create this? [17:56] how to add /etc/init.d/mysql start/stop to service in ubuntu [17:57] magarwal__: hmmm, maybe try adding mysql start to etc/modules i'm not sure it will work though [17:57] halp! i accidently 'remove from panel'd my messaging... thing, how do i get it back? [17:57] bluezone, no definitely not [17:58] yeah, probably a dumb idea [17:58] anybody know how to get back the messaging and sound integration item on the panel?

[17:58] !resetpanel wwwyzzerdd [17:58] !resetpanel | wwwyzzerdd [17:58] wwwyzzerdd: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [17:59] Hi people of ubuntu. I just recently installed ubuntu with the Windows installer and now I'm considering make it my default Os. I intend to keep my Win7 for when I want to play games. Here's my noobish question: is there a way to make ubuntu loading by default when I (re)start my computer? [17:59] on wicd after putting my wpa password (I am more than sure that is correct, cose it works on ps3 and mobile) it write "bad password" and won't allow me to connect. Please help! [17:59] magarwal__, sudo apt-get install mysql-server [17:59] Vaenom: I'm not sure if there is with wubi. There def is with a normal install [17:59] Vaenom: yes, you would have to modify grub, but i don't recall how [17:59] Dr_Willis: thank you [18:00] how do I remove the Ubuntu One thing from my task bar? removing it by clicking "Remove from panel" kills the Logout/Switch Off button too [18:00] I am trying to get this tool compiled from source on ubuntu http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~abh/bbcp/ any help would be appreciated. I have installed the build essentials package and it appears the problem may be with the makefile. Source here : http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~abh/bbcp/bbcp.tgz [18:00] I still want that [18:00] sam- : i already have mysql-server, and am able to start it with /etc/init.d/mysql start [18:00] When attempting to install nvidia drivers on my new kernal ( i was warned buy sam-_- that it may not work xD) but anyhow it says "The distribution-provided pre-install script has failed!, and it fails after that, It also tells me i already have a driver installed however i do not have one installed, any ideas? [18:00] kernel* [18:01] i want to change it to upstart job [18:01] Sometimes I'll think my laptop goes in suspend, but then I'll find that it's been heating up in my bag and it doesn't return from a dark screen. I guess it due to overheating which seems very unhealthy. Is there a way to have ubuntu guarantee being suspended when the lid of my laptop is closed? [18:01] edbian & bluezone: okay, thanks. Since grub load after I have to say to windows I want to load ubuntu, I'll consider reinstalling everything. [18:01] magarwal__, there is also an upstart job [18:01] gusg: you could look at what messages are generated in dmesg when you close your laptop lid [18:01] Vaenom: You'll probably be better off with a proper install, not wubi :) Gives you more control. [18:01] daedra, you mean the u1 indicator? that only runs when you set it to, its not a standard part of ubuntu, its on rye's ppa [18:01] magarwal__, /etc/init/mysql.conf [18:01] thanks guys [18:02] mongy: ppa? [18:02] Anyone have recommendations for a USB Wifi device that works well with Ubuntu including WPA2? [18:02] gusg: if dmesg says nothing upon lid close & open, you may need to install some ACPI driver [18:02] daedra: Usually I choose to suspend and then close my lid. but it seems the machine turns on spontaneously. === matthew is now known as Harness === claudia is now known as zumwoifi [18:03] gusg: Does the laptop have any buttons on the outside when the lid is closed? [18:03] gusg: I'd look at dmesg first. Watch it for when it turns on spontaneously, open it up, run terminal and type "dmesg" [18:03] daedra, ubuntuone-indicator is a package from a ppa made by someone in #ubuntuone. I know of no other indicator/icon for it so just assuming thats what you mean. [18:03] edbian: yeah I can imagine that. a lot of work to do just to go there though [18:03] anyone know a file sharing channel? [18:03] undecim: yes, it does. They might be getting pressed in the case [18:03] flickerfly, most of them work with ubuntu. which one did you consider buying? [18:03] mongy: it has a speech bubble icon, with an X in it, and my username [18:03] gusg: Exactly. Try putting your laptop to sleep and see if the button wakes it while the lid is closed [18:04] I have a Dell one that works, but doesn't support WPA2, at least not without more fiddling than I've already done. [18:04] why does "dmesg | tail -f" return immediately ? [18:04] daedra, oh that thing... [18:04] mongy: it's called a "Indicator Applet Session" [18:04] on wicd after putting my wpa password (I am more than sure that is correct, cose it works on ps3 and mobile) it write "bad password" and won't allow me to connect. Please help! [18:04] daedra, I think its the package 'indicator-me' [18:04] gusg: Just about anything will cause a laptopt to wake from sleep [18:04] mongy: ah thanks [18:04] mongy: googling now :) [18:04] gusg: Because dmesg sends an "end of output" character to tail [18:04] just remove it. [18:05] undecim: what do you mean anything? [18:05] gusg: Any keypress [18:05] Off topic question: I'm not a native english speaker and I wonder how good the name "Psychr" would be for an online therapy (think neurofeedback for example). Is that awful? Sorry about that question here, I just have access to no one right now and need to figure this one. [18:05] daedra, if you remove the logout/reboot session icon it just moves to your System menu. [18:05] gusg: Try « watch 'dmesg | tail' » instead [18:05] undecim: oh, okay. Is there a way for me to follow the dmesg log? Is there a file in /var/log [18:05] gusg, tailf [18:06] sam-_-: I have a Dell one that works, forget the chipset but its old, but doesn't support WPA2, at least not without more fiddling than I've already done. [18:06] mongy: sorry, could you elaborate ?

"tailf dmesg" works [18:07] I'm looking for help regarding mysql suddenly dying on my server overnight. I've tried reinstalling, a typescript is available here: https://gist.github.com/779972 [18:07] sam-_-: Thanks, that's about exactly what I was looking for before. Great stuff! [18:07] i have a ubuntu server and my crons are not firing :'( - someone help me please. [18:07] gusg: err... should have been another ' at the end of that second one, lol [18:07] anyway, thanks for helping with my first question. [18:07] magarwal__, maybe because mysql is already started. shouldn't hang though. [18:08] I've tried converting the rpms available on that site using alien to avoid building from source but still a no go [18:08] sam- : ps -ef | grep mysql shows nothing for mysql process [18:08] Can somebody help me out im trying to find linux-backports-modules-compat-wireless 2.6.32-24 [18:08] ... cron anyone? [18:08] uchighlander: Don't use alien. [18:08] !cron | kbm [18:08] kbm: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts.

[18:09] sam-: if i kill service mysql start and start with /etc/init.d/mysql start, it works fine [18:09] uchighlander: Can you give me a pastebin of you output you get when you try to compile? [18:09] undecim: why not? [18:09] john38, what do you mean find? install them? [18:09] uchighlander: Because it causes problems with dependencies, package name conflicts.... all kinds of stuff like that [18:10] uchighlander: You're probably just missing a -dev package or something. [18:10] sam-_-, yeah i cant find to install [18:10] undecim: make: *** No rule to make target `Linuxunknown'. Stop. [18:10] sam-_-, only versions 25 and above [18:10] that is the error I get [18:10] kbm: How do you know they're not firing? [18:10] i think is because i set them up under my usernmae [18:10] and not root [18:10] john38, so why do you want the older version? what does uname -a say? [18:11] ext4 on my external HDD works much faster then NTFS. Thanks! :) [18:11] uchighlander: What command are you using to make? [18:11] sam-_-, 2.6.32-24 [18:11] just make [18:11] kbm: What are the commands? [18:11] magarwal__, then just use this method.

[18:18] mongy, if they are an upstart job: edit the *.conf file in /etc/init/ (comment the line that say "start on" with a #) [18:18] kun: okay, first of all, I'm going to ask that you read a site about grub2, then you're going to need to follow some steps during a reboot [18:18] bluezone: which version of linux and which kernel you're using??

[18:20] ok Gnea [18:20] bluemon: seems like you're running updated versions... so no probs with that... have you tried installing nvidia drivers from Hardware Drivers section??? the recommended install??? [18:20] eross, yes. if you do it via do-release-upgrade [18:20] lynxomania, yes, that still results in not being able to change my resolution because it doesn't detect my monitor [18:21] lynxomania, i'm stuck at 800 by 600 right now [18:21] undecim: I went with @make makeLinuxi386 [18:21] sam-_- using the system/admin/update sources and it showed the upgrade was available. must be the same thing, thanks [18:21] hi [18:21] undecim: prv chat please [18:21] i just tried to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10, and it had a problem that "could be caused by held packages", how to i find out what packages are held, and uninstall/unhold them? [18:21] I have a question: Currently using Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS on VMware ESXi. I want to use the virtual kernel, but when I install it, it installs the generic-pae instead... why's that? [18:21] eross, i guess so. [18:21] undecim: Ill run the make command you gave me again [18:22] bluezone: i suppose you are not able to change the resolution via the nvidia x server settings option in system>administration??? [18:22] kun: ultimately what you're going to do is boot the system, interrupt grub from booting ubuntu, and tell it to not use the 'quiet splash' arguments [18:22] lynxomania, exactly [18:22] bbcp_File.C:232: error: 'sprintf' was not declared in this scope [18:23] i have a linksys WUSB54GSC v2 802.11g adapter, a desktop running Ubuntu 10.10, and a laptop im using now with a cdr in the tray. how do i get the desktop to work with the wireless adapter?

[18:26] Pici, how to force lower cpu freq? [18:26] I enter in grub and choose kernel and sometimes is right [18:26] and sometimes no [18:26] kun: then you did the right thing - now we need to figure out why it's doing that [18:26] Jeep, maybe a sudo apt-get clean will help ;) [18:26] doesn't say much of the files provided... look at http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/i386/linux-image-2.6.32-27-virtual/filelist [18:26] KM0201, there are two different folders with .inf and .cat files in them, one named vista one named xp. i reckon i'll have to use them instead (the files in the folders) [18:27] I try with supergrub live cd and no [18:27] My windows partitions are shown on the left side in nautilus but it takes a second for them to load after I click one (and suddenly files from that partition show up in rhythmbox assuming I previously added them) how do I get it to automatically mount correctly? [18:27] same results [18:27] mrPotato: probably... [18:27] kun: no problem, forget supergrub, we need to use the grub that's currently installed [18:27] okis [18:27] Ubuntu 10.10 - keeps loggin me off, regardless of activity. Googled and found ref. to disabling screensaver, power management, hd spindown & did that. Still logs out. Regardless of Window Manager. Anyone? This is a fresh, raw install. [18:27] my grub is 1.98 [18:27] bluemon: i guess you can overcome this by manually entering the required info to /etc/X11/xorg.conf [18:27] hi all [18:28] and I've read in link you show me that is the last [18:28] kun: and you say you can select different kernels from it? [18:28] yep [18:28] older and new [18:28] Jeep, i was referring to the depends on list. [18:28] ubuntu 10.04 [18:28] a mate from here told me that kernel don't remove auto [18:28] kun: good - what you will want to do is to select the newest kernel at the top of the list (should be default), then press 'e' to edit it [18:28] lynxomania, ideas? xD [18:29] I did it but just to check... [18:29] sam-_-: yes, it says that linux-image-2.6.32-27-virtual is dependant, so? [18:29] bluemon: gimme a min to find'em [18:29] I have the grub here [18:29] kun: from there, you will need to find the 'kernel' line, the line that starts with the word 'kernel' on it - edit that line so that at the very end of it, remove the options 'quiet splash' [18:29] k [18:29] mrPotato: answer your PM [18:29] how can i have a msn ? [18:29] I found it [18:30] kun: once you have those options removed, that is when you want to boot the system [18:30] ylmfos, empathy [18:30] ok [18:30] o [18:30] is it possible to hide an url without it can be traced ? [18:30] ylmfos: if you need video chat, use amsn... otherwise, empathy and pidgin [18:30] Jeep, so it should be installed and not the pae === max is now known as Guest50425 [18:30] i know [18:30] the linux-image-2.6.32-27-virtual IS installed. But the files within that packages are generic-pae files! [18:30] kun: it should spit out a bunch of text as it's booting up - at some point, if it locks up again, it will say the last thing on the screen - that is the likely cause of the freeze [18:31] thanks [18:31] * KM0201 hates empathy [18:31] try later, cause I 'm chatting through "the laptop with the problem", LOL [18:31] bluemon: have you the result for sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf ???

[18:39] did support for intrepid stop last night? [18:40] kun: it might not be that simple - if the system freezes, you won't be able to look at those files like that, you'll need to read what's on the screen and write it down or take a picture [18:40] my Ubuntu server stops at 2013 :) [18:40] gnea: you're right [18:41] gnea: I'll take a picture with camera [18:41] kun: if you have a good digital camera, you should be able to get a clear shot and then upload it to tinyimg.org in windows [18:41] !intrepid | kxsteve [18:41] kxsteve: Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) was the ninth release of Ubuntu.

[18:42] kxsteve: just because the server's stay up a little longer doesn't change the fact that support ended april 30th, you need to upgrade :) [18:42] !upgrade | kxsteve [18:42] kxsteve: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [18:42] IdleOne, Koheleth: just an FYI - if you visit http://ubuntu.com, there is a little search box on the front of the screen - type in 'torrent' and the 3rd link is obvious. [18:42] kxsteve: Might want to change the urls in sources.list to be old-releases.ubuntu.com [18:43] old-releases? thanks [18:43] Gnea: why not just have it where the get Ubuntu option is, userfriendly and all that :) [18:43] kxsteve: running an unsupported release is a bad idea. Those servers are meant to bring you up to date so you can upgrade to a supported release (they're given to you in ubottu's link as well) [18:44] Koheleth: that's why the search function is there, to make things userfriendly, that way there's not so much garbage all over the page to confuse you :) [18:44] jrib: it's not that simple, the applications built for 8.10 and fails on 10.04 (which is the LTS?)

[18:53] Bilz: either works [18:53] Bilz: use 64 if you need 64, 32 otherwise [18:53] its a brand new machine with 2 TB hard drive.

[18:56] zk_: right, because it needs to load the FS to access the modules, and that is done after, not before, so you can choose any and still access tty2 and do it manually [18:56] ca anyone help [18:56] dd if=Fedora-14-LXDE.iso of=/dev/sdb just completed. cya bitchezzzz [18:56] zaery, did you import the password?

But now I want to run it but i don't know how can i do ? [19:06] so, when I update my ubuntu to the next version I don't have to unisntall what I have and Install the new one right? [19:06] sam-_-: ok [19:06] Chilaquiles: You can upgrade or perform a fresh install over the existing install (after backing up your data) [19:06] skutr3, also you can try to blacklist shpchp but some devices may not work after doing this [19:07] one question: if I add : " source /opt/Xilinx/ " in my .bashrc, what change does it make ? [19:07] soreau, what I want is not like in Windows that I have to unistall what I have and install all over again [19:07] Does anyone know how to restore default display settings in Ubuntu.

[19:08] Chilaquiles: You can upgrade always but sometimes, ubuntu upgrades can introduce bugs or problems [19:08] how can i completely delete and nvidia video card drivers being used? [19:08] jymere, in bash: help source [19:09] bluezone, sudo apt-get --purge autoremove nvidia-* [19:09] k [19:09] any suggestions on the SSH question about? [19:09] Chilaquiles: I like to recommend installing fresh over the existing installation or, at least be prepared to do so in case the upgrader causes problems [19:09] *above [19:09] bluezone, go to system/administration/additional drivers... highlight the driver you are using and remove it [19:09] soreau, I thought linux was better than windows :( [19:09] bluezone, then reboot the system [19:09] coz_, i tried that, ti didnt work [19:09] hi all, I have an RSA key that I copied to my USB stick. I'd like to connect into my server from my home PC (Ubuntu Desktop). How do I specify the key while using SSH from client to server? [19:09] i've upgraded last 3 times and i've had no problems with it yet :P other than having to manually install grub2 when it came out [19:09] coz_, it still says a different version is being used [19:09] t [19:10] Tigerplug292, afaik, when you ssh into the server the stored key is sent by default [19:10] bluezone, did you install th e nvidia driver with the same dialog or did you manually install it? [19:10] bluezone: jockey (menu System > Administration > Hardware Drivers) [19:10] BluesKaj, its configured so that I MUST have the key on my home PC to connect [19:10] Tigerplug292, try this: ssh -i [19:10] Does anyone know of a magic terminal command that restores default display settings. I screwed mine up with the "Monitor Preferences" dialog. [19:10] BluesKaj, the server is located at work [19:11] sam-_-, will try now [19:11] Chilaquiles: As long as you don't start adding a bunch of thrid party repos or messing up your system in some other unofficially supported way, upgrades should work fine in theory [19:11] coz_, i used that and then i wanted to uprgrade with a manual installation and it failed [19:11] Chilaquiles: But in practice, always be ready to reinstall fresh [19:11] Guys, I have messed up my SSH authentication system on my server. I am getting prompted for a password that I never was asked for before. I have RSA keys set up so it should auto-login. [19:11] How do I troubleshoot this? === Mkaysi is now known as OtusBot-PieSpy [19:11] knasto, try this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [19:11] bluezone, well theres is part of the problem...open a terminal and paste this command to remove the failed manual install sudo /usr/bin/nvidia-installer --uninstall___ to uninstall previous nvidia driver === OtusBot-PieSpy is now known as Kanttiinipoika [19:12] soreau, is sudo upgrade distro the command for upgrading ubuntu? [19:12] yes Tigerplug292 , the ssh @username IPaddress command is supposed to send the key to your server at work === Kanttiinipoika is now known as Mkaysi [19:12] blueness, dont add the ___ to uninstall previous nvidia driver [19:12] could someone clarify something for me? I'm looking at grub.cfg .. can I just delete the menuentry sections for items I want to remove from the bootup menu? [19:12] sam-_-, nope - its not working [19:12] sam-_-, that only works for someone with the same username on both computers, right? I want multiple computers to all automatically mount my network user [19:12] bluezone, sudo /usr/bin/nvidia-installer --uninstall [19:12] sam-_-, its a .ppk file that I have [19:12] bluezone, then reboot the system [19:12] BlueEagle, do I need to specify a switch for this? [19:12] BlueEagle, or where do I place the key that I have (.ppk file) [19:13] bluezone, then you can remove the one in Additional drivers if you like [19:13] Chilaquiles: No, update-manager should tell you when there is an upgrade available [19:14] virgomoon: grub2 has it setup in such a way that you're supposed to remove the entries from the grub files in /etc/, then run grub-update [19:14] ! grub2 | virgomoon [19:14] virgomoon: 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/Grub2 [19:14] zaery, no you can specify the username you want to login with [19:14] BlueEagle, wont take the password [19:14] I've been running in a weird bug with dual monitors recently: 1 notebook + 1 additional screen + external USB keyboard on Maverick. When I hit a key on the notebook keyboard instead of the external one it goes back to 1 monitor, disabling the second screen. [19:14] BlueEagle, sam-_- but when I try this from my windows partition with putty it works fine [19:15] BlueEagle, sam-_- puzzled at that [19:15] thx, soreau .. I'll check it out [19:15] k i got the package to extract but how do i get it to install [19:16] Tigerplug292, if you have the key stored in /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key.pub , then ssh sends that key by default...maybe an update/upgrade is to blame [19:17] BluesKaj, he is gone [19:17] Anyone familir with mounting ISO files? I installed gmount but cannot get it to work. [19:17] BluesKaj, i don't think ssh works with ppk files. do you know? [19:17] ,sam , no patience ...instant gratification [19:17] sam-_-, how would i specify what username to login with? [19:17] nope [19:17] MacManDan: what happens? (or doesn't happen) [19:18] BluesKaj, i assume the best. i blame his provider :-) [19:18] I'm trying to setup FTP to Ubuntu, I'm getting an error saying "Unable to open connection to server". Could I please get some help in resolving this? [19:18] zaery, @:/ [19:18] Okay I start gmount and it asks for 1) ISO file to mount and 2) folder to install to. It accepts the ISO but cannot get a folder to work. [19:19] Mount Point [19:19] what happens when you try to select one [19:19] sam-_-, maybe he has a dynamic IP at home and doesn't realize it needs to be static , and the server at work expects a certain IP which sn't thesame as itmwas when thety setup ssh [19:20] something crashed and my desktop has gone blank. How can I restore it without relogging? [19:20] I have installed proftpd. Per the setup instructions. [19:20] BluesKaj, either way. he was doing sth. wrong [19:20] If I choose /media it says "The folder /media is not empty" [19:20] k i got the package to extract but how do i get it to install on the computer? [19:20] sam-_-, anyway he was so impatient , he couldn't be bothered to get my right :) [19:20] If i use pulse is there any simple gnome panel applet that lets me control the volume ?? [19:20] sam-_-, okay so now how do i get my computer to redetect my video card and use the original, non-restricted, drivers [19:20] MacManDan: yeah, so create a new folder and select that [19:20] Travis-42, what do you mean by blank? [19:21] nick [19:21] ctrl + alt + f1 (other console) then try to killall the proces thats not responding? [19:21] sam-_-, all the icons disappeared [19:21] OKay. Under my login name/home folder? [19:21] then go back with ctrl+alt+f7? [19:21] MacManDan: i actually stick to the /media idea [19:21] bluezone, try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [19:21] MacManDan: I use /media/mount [19:21] hi, need some help with ubuntu. It keeps freezing at random. [19:21] sam-_-, this may be relevant: gnome-session is taking up near full cpu [19:21] I'm using 10.10 maverick meerkat [19:22] Travis-42, it rly. is easiest if you log out then back in again [19:22] MacManDan: but i expect it would work in an empty folder in your home directory too if you want [19:22] sigh, alright, thanks sam-_- [19:22] sam-_-, so i don't specify the username in the ssh key, but instead in fstab? [19:22] How to turn off Magnifier on logout screen? [19:22] zaery, yes [19:22] ah, that makes sense :) [19:22] How to turn off Magnifier on logout screen?

[19:29] ubuntu-maverick-, are you sure it rly freezes? do sysrequests still work? [19:29] dont repeat urself === catalyst is now known as Guest75309 [19:29] sam: It just freezes at ransom; its impossible to use the keyboard or mouse, when it freezes.

[19:30] sam-_-: ok you missed the "s" [19:30] sam-_-: must have been an echo [19:30] ubuntu-maverick-, defect hardware maybe? are you using restricted drivers? [19:31] I had a similar freezing problem on Windows in the past, but that was due to missing chipset drivers. I don't know enough about ubuntu to determine the cause. How do I check for driver faults, or missing drivers? [19:31] share, yes. but i will be more careful next time [19:31] ubuntu-maverick-, are you positive it doesn't happen on windows? [19:32] whats ure hardware config? [19:32] What is ubuntu Proposed ppa's is it safe to download them ?

[19:33] smiley__, proposed is no ppa :-) [19:33] mobster, both are oke [19:33] nvidia used to be better with linux drivers.... but that was 5 years ago [19:33] I'd go with Nvidia for compatibility [19:33] Zillaaah: 5 years ago? [19:33] I'll run memtest and get back to you on it. Thanks! [19:33] since than ati made a great comeback but i think that nvidia is better [19:33] is there any problems with ATI?

[19:50] soreau: no I don't have any ntfs in there [19:50] is indonesian? [19:51] mongy: What is the output of 'glxinfo|grep renderer'? [19:51] OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R600 (RV730 9480) 20090101 TCL DRI2 [19:51] is indonesian? [19:51] Chilaquiles: Then it's probably not mounted. Pastebin the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' to ubuntu.pastebin.com [19:52] NooBoontoo, looks ugly [19:52] NooBoontoo, try #wine-hq [19:52] sam- You sound like an expert, please tell me what happened here [19:52] would chromium claiming that it can play h.264 be considered as bug? [19:52] hola [19:52] mongy: Ok, you should either a) Install xorg-edgers repo to get a later kernel and latest mesa open drivers or b) Install fglrx [19:53] Does the ubuntu calculator have a physics function? [19:53] NooBoontoo, unfortunately i JUST sound like an expert ;) [19:53] sam-_- : Actually, I was tryng to install 1.2.2 version... but you know, errors and stuff the common user like dont know [19:53] brontoeee, it can [19:53] soreau, yeah, I thought about the edgers, but I'd like to know if it would fix my issue before installing: :) id love to use radeon driver, lot better with tearing [19:53] brontoeee, via chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-nonfree [19:54] http://paste.ubuntu.com/554142/ is in my fstab, and i imported ssh keys to my other computer according to this: http://pkeck.myweb.uga.edu/ssh/ but it still won't mount my network drive on boot, can anyone help? [19:54] sam-_-, not without special install, excatly [19:54] mongy: Since there is now ppa-purge, you can easily restore the system from any ppa (including xorg-edgers) [19:54] Does the ubuntu calculator have a physics function? [19:54] brontoeee, then i don't understand [19:54] mongy: So installing and restoring the system is made easy [19:54] so in ubuntu, if I have multiple desktops: If i hover my mouse over them, it says "click to start dragging ". So I click, but the dragging never works. Can someone confirm this as a bug ? [19:54] sam-_-, the browser claims it can without the nonfree stuff installed [19:55] Dealing: switch mode to scientific [19:55] How can I install 32bit wine libraries in a 64bit system? [19:55] brontoeee, so you mean it doesn't download the file like it is supposed to be? [19:55] thanks. [19:55] Does the ubuntu calculator have a physics function? [19:56] DealingWithFools: It has mat functions [19:56] DealingWithFools, like sin, cos? [19:56] soreau, recommend fresh x crack or swat-x ? [19:56] no, like physics equations. === gregoire is now known as TheGreg [19:56] sam-_-, actually its about html5 video tag [19:56] DealingWithFools: Yes just switch to enhaned mode [19:56] mongy: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental && sudo apt-get upgrade [19:57] DealingWithFools: No there's freemat and some other mthlab clones [19:57] brontoeee, then how do you know it claims to support h264? [19:57] sam-_-, ill post a code... [19:57] DealingWithFools, axiom is a Computer Algebra System software that might help [19:58] grantsmith: it works fine on my desktop, sorry if this sounds condescending, but are you holding the mouse button down while dragging? [19:58] mongy, may i recommend to not do this. it's not that easy to downgrade after adding xorg-edgers [19:58] zaery, yes i am. are you dragging from the wochspace switcher though ? [19:58] sam-_-: It is. Just use ppa-purge xorg0edgers [19:59] hi, i created a passport account for msn and open it through pidgin, added a few of contacts but they told me they didn't receive any adding-request... anyone? any help? [19:59] workspace* [19:59] grantsmith, oh i thought you were talking about things on the desktop. right click the desktop switcher, is it locked? [19:59] brontoeee, ah ok. well yeah. could be a bug. [20:00] soreau: http://pastebin.com/NCSyebxL [20:00] I have converted some RPM packages to deb using alien -k and also alien -t. After trying both methods, I cannot execute the resulting files. I get -bash: ./lmgrd: No such file or directory. However, I swear the file exists, is readable and executable, and it a normal file. What could be the issue? [20:00] grantsmith, oh, you wanted to drag an application from one workspace to another, using the desktop, right? that works fine for me, too [20:00] soreau, mongy, ok. your call :-) [20:00] sam-_-, yeah, seems to be nonaware of its own powers :P [20:00] zaery, the "lock to panel" doesnt seem to make a difference for me [20:01] Ganymede: deb packages aren't meant to be executable. They need to be installed using dpkg. [20:01] Chilaquiles: Is the ntfs file system the first partition on the first hard drive? [20:01] grantsmith, you can always just rightclick the title bar and select "move to workspace...." [20:01] soreau, do i install ppa-purge before all this? [20:01] Ganymede, try dpkg -i [20:01] zaery: I can drag just fine on the workspace, but not within the workspace switcher [20:02] why do tutorials ask me to open software center and get packages that i am not allowed to get? [20:02] Pici, Yes, I installed the resulting .deb and am trying to run the executables that it installed, not the deb itself. [20:02] http://www.liberiangeek.net/2010/05/share-filesfolders-between-windows-xp-vista-7-and-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx-via-samba/ [20:02] zaery, and the hover tooltip just says "click to start dragging" lol [20:02] mongy: Sure [20:02] grantsmith, well i can drag things from one workspace to another using the workspace switcher [20:02] Anyone know of a decent IRC client other than xchat for ubuntu? [20:03] what are morphology files?? [20:03] sam-_-, 1) my system still does no boot without using recovery and graphics fail safe session, 2) I get a CC compiler error about not having a proper kernel 3) i get an error about not having some kernel-devel files, which i cannot find with apt-get, all this happens when i attempt to install my nvidia drivers manually, ideas? [20:03] zaery: Hmmm.. wonder why i cant [20:03] Pici, sam-_-: The file I am running is /opt/flexnetserver/lmgrd, which, according to "file", is ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, stripped and is totally executable. I try to run it using the full path and get that it does not exist. [20:03] bluezone, install the kernel headers === root is now known as Guest98876 [20:03] zaery, in fact I have two computers with ubuntu installed and neither one can [20:03] XiaolinDraconis: uh, what happens when you try to install it? [20:03] Ganymede: Using alien to install or convert RPM packages is completely unsupported. You're really on your own if you do that. [20:04] soreau: http://pastebin.com/NCSyebxL [20:04] grantsmith, are they of the same make/model/brand, and both of the same ubuntu version? It could be because i'm still on 10.04 [20:04] Chilaquiles: Is the ntfs file system the first partition on the first hard drive? [20:04] ok brb [20:05] yes [20:05] Ganymede, what software is it your trying to install? [20:05] anyone know of any other Safe software on the net for ubuntu [20:05] Anyone know of a decent IRC client other than xchat for ubuntu? [20:05] Noob question. My "File System" in the explorer says "24 items 2.1G free" [20:05] sam-_-, The license server for Autodesk Maya 2011. [20:05] Ganymede, sure there isn't a debian package already? [20:05] zaery, both on 10.4.1 [20:05] is this an IRC channel for ubuntu general or ubuntu desktop only? [20:05] Fireblazto: I use KVIrc and I like it [20:05] is thunderbird better tha EpathY?? [20:05] sam-_-, Nope, they only provide an RPM. It would seem to make sense that I can just extract the bins out of the .rpm with alien -t and run them...but bash says "NO such file or directory" which is a complete lie. [20:05] Chilaquiles: Try this to create a directory and mount the drive to it: sudo mkdir /mnt/sda1 && sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 && ls /mnt/sda1 [20:06] grantsmith, what computers are they? [20:06] But when I did "df" in terminal it says only 50G of my 128G is used. [20:06] Fireblazto: There is a list of irc clients here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat its up to YOU to figure out which one you like best. [20:06] Ganymede, oh ok. there might not be. try installing the converted deb with dpkg -i [20:06] induz_: well thunderbird is a mail client, and empathy an instant messenger [20:06] Is there a graphical disk app that will show me what is taking up this space? [20:06] Pici Cheers, I was just seeing what people recommended [20:06] zaery, different hardware, but both 64bit [20:06] Guest98876: This channel is for general Ubuntu support. We also have #ubuntu-server if you need more specific support or also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList for the rest of our available channels. [20:07] sam-_-, Yep, I had tried that already. Still same problem...bash tells me no such file or directory even though the file exists and is executable. [20:07] thnx Pici!!! [20:07] i'll join ubuntu server then! [20:07] soreau: Mount is denied because the NTFS volume is already exclusively opened. [20:07] The volume may be already mounted, or another software may use it which [20:07] could be identified for example by the help of the 'fuser' command. [20:07] If I install Wine 1.2.2. do I need to uninstall the older version, or will it automatically delete it the newer version? [20:07] grantsmith, i've got 32-bit === Guest98876 is now known as Join-D [20:07] can anyone give me a link to a quick and dirty tutorial to set up a samba share with win7? All the ones I come across are old [20:07] i mean evolutuon [20:07] zaery, ok, thanks.. i'll see if google can help :/ [20:07] Lucenut, seems like you looked up the numbers for two different file systems [20:07] I dont mean empathy I meant evolution [20:08] !best | induz_ [20:08] induz_: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [20:08] anyone with 64-bit ubuntu 10.04 wanna drag an app from one workspace to another using the workspace switcher real quick? [20:08] rez410, ask in #windows [20:08] Chilaquiles: sudo fuser /dev/sda1 [20:08] How would I "mirror" a file ? Example when wtf.txt in /home is edited it is also edited in /home/blah [20:08] Ganymede, then you provide the wrong name. also it shouldn't be executable [20:08] gumpish, sry i got lost in my own mind. some packages give a warning about untrusted packages and then the download cancels [20:08] Drainix: i think that would require some sort of RAID [20:08] Oer: why? I want to set up samba in ubuntu-server [20:08] Drainix: Do they need to be seperate files? or can you just use a symlink? [20:08] sam-_-, Why should the binary not be executable? And no, I did not provide the wrong name. [20:09] Symlink may work [20:09] Pici, I am using Evolution, but i hear about thunderbird!! [20:09] I don't know how to do that though [20:09] soreau: and now what? [20:09] Anyone? [20:09] XiaolinDraconis: there shouldn't be anything untrusted about samba [20:09] Drainix: ah... i don't think so... but maybe [20:09] Ganymede, *.deb packages are no binaries [20:09] induz_: Use what YOU think is best. Everyone has their own opinions. [20:09] I made a launcher to the file but that was obviously wrong [20:09] Chilaquiles: What is the output of that? [20:09] I am using Evolution with gmail acc [20:09] sam-_-, As I have said numerous times before, I am not trying to execute the .deb nor have I ever tried that. [20:09] Drainix: ln -s /path/to/target /path/to/link [20:09] soreau: /dev/sda1: 298 [20:09] ok [20:09] http://paste.ubuntu.com/554142/ is in my fstab, and i imported ssh keys to my other computer according to this: http://pkeck.myweb.uga.edu/ssh/ but it still won't mount my network drive on boot, can anyone help? [20:09] Ganymede, sry. then i misunderstood then [20:09] gumpish, it happens for a lot of packages i wouldnt think were. [20:09] Chilaquiles: Ok now pastebin the output of 'ps ax|grep 298' [20:09] XiaolinDraconis: you may have an issue with your software repository configuration... [20:09] sam-_-, I'm trying to execute the binaries in /opt that resulted from installing the debs using dpkg -i [20:10] Ganymede, ok. [20:10] Ganymede: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1555394 [20:10] soreau: 298 ?

I'll give these instructions a try instead. [20:12] Drainix: I'd use absolute paths for the target, makes it easier in the long run.

[20:14] I am downloadin Thunderbird via comman line [20:15] The reason I needed to do that to begin with, [20:15] induz_: and...? [20:15] soreau: I copied and pasted what you gave me into the terminal [20:15] any ideas why Samba package would give me an error about being untrusted? [20:15] Chilaquiles: I don't understand why you have sda1 mounting to /root [20:15] can anyone suggest an app to take videos of my screen for Ubuntu? [20:15] error from software center [20:16] I downloaded a Realmlist.jar It needs to find realmlist.wtf to edit it but realmlist.wtf is in a hidden folder and the java programs file browser does not seem to want to find hidden folders even when I press ctrl+h [20:16] Chilaquiles: And I don't understand why ls would show that link unless that is a file name on the system there [20:16] Ed_Money: recordmydesktop [20:16] IdleOne: Thanks [20:16] I don't either [20:16] schnuffle1, Hmm..this post actually does not cover the network license server, adlmflexnetserver. It instead only deals with standalone licenses...I don't see anything that they're doing that I'm not... [20:16] Ed_Money, i have an app that takes gif's .... but those get huge real fast [20:16] Gmail is IMAP or POP account for thunderBird [20:16] Ganymde: Sorry for you [20:16] induz_: either [20:16] induz_: both but use imap [20:17] do you wanna do that doreau? [20:17] soreau? [20:17] what is the difference between POP and IMAP?? [20:18] induz_: IMAP is what people think of when they think of "webmail" - everyting lives on the server [20:18] I have this weird area on the side of my screen, my wallpaper seems to start from the middle of my screen. What's happened? [20:18] hi all [20:18] where can I find a volume control applet ? [20:18] Ganymede: http://www.globes.com/support/fnp_utilities_download.htm [20:19] induz_: IMAP makes keeping your mail in sync from multiple locations/computers much simpler [20:19] Nepherius: on your pannel --> Add to panel [20:19] Are there any PDAs that can run Ubuntu?

Please ask support questions in this channel, not in PM.

[20:23] I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Ubuntu Linux, is in fact, GNU/Ubuntu Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Ubuntu Linux. Ubuntu Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. [20:23] Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Ubuntu Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

[20:29] zaery: By default, a user can only edit stuff in their home folder and /tmp [20:29] weev: What, you want a GNUbuntu? ;) [20:29] soreau: GNUbuntu would be sufficeint, yes [20:29] sam-_-, i can't seem to find the header files lol [20:29] schnuffle1, http://pastebin.com/Ub3yuRtg (not sure how to interpret that) [20:29] hi, whilst updating I accidentally restarted ubuntu, now it won't start -- says the volume on / is not ready. Recovery mode stops with an error message that plymouth was killed. [20:29] sam-_-, all of them seem to be installed [20:30] bluezone, linux-headers-generic [20:30] zaery: /tmp, of course, being only for storing temporary files, since it's cleared on each boot. [20:30] k [20:30] schnuffle1, I have to install via adds-on on thunderbird [20:30] weev, i think linux is also refered as a name for distribution, in that context 'ubuntu linux' is not that evil name at all [20:30] Ganymede: that tells you the libs it's linked against [20:30] Chilaquiles: See on line 21 of the pastebin where it says /dev/sda1 on /host ..? [20:30] sam-_-, it is already installed [20:31] soreau: yea?0 [20:31] yeah? [20:31] anyone have ideas on how to solve it? [20:31] salomonv: I know what you can do [20:31] sam-_-, at this point all i want to do is be able to boot my system and have my resolution set to normal lol [20:31] Ganymded: you shure did a: chmod 755 ./lmgrd [20:31] soreau, thanks for the suggestion but fan is still on constantly. Ill go back to amd [20:31] salomonv: First, follow the directions here: http://blog.undecim.org/2010/05/fix-boot-problems-with-a-live-cd-and-chroot/ [20:32] is there a way to hide a open ssh tunnel connection through a proxy server in such a way that the original connection to my server can't be traced? [20:32] Chilaquiles: It's telling you the first partition (1) of the first drive (a) is mounted to /host so try looking in /host with your file browser or use 'ls /host/' [20:32] paulus68: Traced by who? [20:33] test [20:33] traced by my network administrator [20:33] Hello guys [20:33] hi [20:33] undecim, thanks, anything i should try in particular to solve it? [20:33] schnuffle1, Does anything look off? That first one linux-vdso.so.1 looks missing? [20:33] paulus68: You would need another SOCKS proxy in order to do that [20:33] soreau: yeah I see it now [20:33] just use tor [20:33] schnuffle1, i got it [20:33] schnuffle1, thanks [20:33] it changes to random IPs [20:33] mongy: There are parameters you can use to control the power consumption. See phoronix forums or ask in #radeon [20:33] salomonv: Once you have run the "sudo chroot" command in those directions, you will want to continue the upgrade with the command like "sudo apt-get upgrade" [20:34] is there a task manager on ubuntu? [20:34] Chilaquiles: I do not know why it's mounting it to /host but you should be able to change the mount point in /etc/fstab [20:34] paulburton0: For example, TOR. Though it would be fairly obvious to your network admin that you are using TOR. [20:34] someone have installed unofficial kernel 2.6.37 [20:34] mrchinosun, gnome-system-monitor? [20:34] undecim: I use putty to connect to my server and set it up as a socks5 connection but I want to be sure that this connection can't be traced or very difficult to trace [20:34] is that in the software store? [20:34] soreau: I don't really care as long as I can access my files [20:34] i have Asus B50 with Intel VGA card. [20:34] Chilaquiles: cool [20:35] cz [20:35] undecim, okay, I'm not sure the updating is indeed the problem -- do you think it matches the error? [20:35] mrchinosun, probably under System -> Administration -> System Monitor [20:35] paulus68: what are you trying to hide? [20:35] it's problem with X [20:35] sam-_-, any other thoughts? lol [20:35] sam-_- thx this is very very bad. [20:35] oh nice lol [20:35] http://www.liberiangeek.net/2010/05/share-filesfolders-between-windows-xp-vista-7-and-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx-via-samba/ [20:35] thanks [20:35] paulus68: Could you elaborate on the word "trace" What exactly do you now want the network admin to know? [20:35] soreau: cool thanks! [20:35] I just installed Ubuntu Netbook remix how do i turn on the netbook layout? [20:35] why is that pakcage untrusted ? [20:35] Chilaquiles: FYI, root (/) is typically reserved for system files/directories [20:36] if my cpu is working like at 5% is that good? [20:36] salomonv: You restarted in the middle of an upgrade, so the upgrade couldn't finish and left you with a bad mix of old and new files. If you finish the upgrade, it might fix this. [20:36] jangell: the initial ssh connection towards my server that I use to connect over my server to the internet [20:36] undecim: okay, thanks, if it doesn't help i'll be right back :P [20:36] Is it possible to increase the size of a VHD? [20:36] undecim: I don't want him to know that I use proxy tunneling to connect to the internent [20:37] joshrl, i used to do it with dd command so yeah its possible [20:37] hi, i have ubuntu 10.04 lts and i'm trying to figure out how to change the order of items in the grub boot menu, but it seems i have neither menu.lst nor grub.cfg in my /boot/grub folder, and i'm not sure what to do [20:37] bluezone, what's the status again? [20:37] \q [20:37] bluezone, which kernel are you using now? [20:37] Ganymede: the first entry is a virtual one provided by the kernel [20:37] paulus68: Well that will be quite difficult to do. Doing it via SSH he will see that you are making a secure connection, but nothing will prove that you are browsing the internet with it [20:37] k [20:37] sam-_-, 2.6.36-020636-generic === Fred_ is now known as Guest84482 [20:38] Ganymede: Do you have selinux or apparmor active? [20:38] schnuffle1, I just wish at this point that I'd get a more descriptive and non-false error message... [20:38] soreau, I just tried a little game (neverball) and its quite jerky.. its like one of the only games I play, so.. ah well [20:38] schnuffle1, This is a stock Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server...I've never done anything explicitly to enable selinux or apparmor. [20:38] paulus68: I think that's the best you will do if you are using your own server. If you use another proxy, he could look up the IP address and see that it's a proxy [20:39] undecim: is there to your knowledge another way to do set this up in order to surf the internet without being traced? [20:39] schnuffle1, I'm not actually all that familiar with either selinux or apparmor [20:39] paulus68: One thing you might try is changing your server to use port 443 for SSH. That's the HTTPS port and will make it look like you are viewing an encrytped website [20:39] paulus68: No, an SSH tunnel is the best you can do [20:39] ok [20:40] undecim: Not a vpn? === root____1 is now known as Join-D [20:40] udecim: with ssh encryption I do this [20:40] lolcat: With a VPN or with a SOCKS tunnel, either way anyone viewing his traffic will just see a secure connection [20:41] bluezone, i would try to download from here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-ia32-260.19.29-driver.html [20:41] undecim: But a vpn takes all his traffic and tunnels it, no need for changes in browser settings or IM settings [20:41] Hi. Just installed Ubuntu 10.10 amd64. Also installed the proprietary Nvidia driver for my GTX 580. But for some reason Ubuntu looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/Qe15W.jpg and not like this: http://softfive.com/files/uploads/Ubuntu.jpg (which it does on other computers I've installed Ubuntu on)? [20:41] bluezone, then install like nvidia wants you to [20:41] undecim: paulus68: what about Torr [20:41] ok === FrozenKnight is now known as FrozenKn1ght [20:41] Ganymede: copy the binaries to /sbin, do a chown root.root and a chmod 755 and try again with sudo [20:41] test [20:42] cowlicks, paulus68, lolcat: Already suggested Tor, but that would make it more obvious what is being don [20:42] cowlicks, paulus68, lolcat: With SSH, you can say your were using the shell on your server === corretiko is now known as coyotiko_ [20:42] lolcat: I use a socks5 connection at this point and as a proxy I just mention the localhost with the port in question [20:42] paulus68: Yes. you should also do one more thing [20:42] paulus68: What browser are you using? [20:42] Just use tor from your server and out to the world === coyotiko_ is now known as corretiko_ [20:42] undecim: firefox which is [20:43] undecim: is this somewhere where tor is illegal? wtf [20:43] lolcat: That's needlessly complex. You can just skip the tor part of that === corretiko_ is now known as corretiko__ [20:43] undecim: Maybe, depends how illegal his activites are [20:43] cowlicks: Illegal, probably not, but possibly against network regulations. [20:43] lolcat: He just doesn't want the network admin to see he's using a proxy [20:44] schnuffle1, I did all the steps you described and tried running it with sudo and got: sudo: unable to execute /sbin/lmgrd: No such file or directory [20:44] lolcat my activities are not illegal it's just that I don't want to be caught surfing the net which is unfortunatly blocked by the administrator :( [20:44] http proxy? [20:45] paulus68: His network, his rules [20:45] schnuffle1, None of the chown or chmod commands threw any errors or anything, they all ran fine. [20:45] hi [20:45] paulus68: In firefox, you need to go to "about:config" and change "network.proxy.socks_remote_dns" to true. [20:45] paulus68: If I borrow you my car to go to the grocery store, you'd be doing something illegal if you race around on the highway. [20:45] I have never seen anything like this... === FrozenKn1ght is now known as FrozenKnight [20:45] anyone knows much about iptables? [20:45] !ask | Join-D [20:46] Join-D: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [20:46] if [20:46] zilaaah: yes [20:46] err... wrong factoid I think, lol [20:46] !if | Join-D [20:46] undecim: thanks [20:46] !anyone | Join-D [20:46] Join-D: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [20:46] That's the one :P [20:47] Hi. Just installed Ubuntu 10.10 amd64. Also installed the proprietary Nvidia driver for my GTX 580. But for some reason Ubuntu looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/Qe15W.jpg and not like this: http://softfive.com/files/uploads/Ubuntu.jpg (which it does on other computers I've installed Ubuntu on)? [20:47] hiiiiiiiiiiii [20:47] Ganymede: At least I can reproduce it on my 32bit :) [20:47] !beer | me [20:47] schnuffle1, And you have not tried on a 64-bit? [20:47] if I run samba, iptables -F it works. If i run samba with iptables and ports opened for samba it doesnt connect from remote (it seems to do from same subnet xxx.xxx.xxx.*) any ideas? Problem is in iptables, not smbd [20:47] !the birds and the bees | me [20:47] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:47] !fishing > m4xx [20:47] m4xx, please see my private message [20:47] iamjebus: You mean the theme? [20:47] schnuffle1, I'm gonna give up in 13 minutes since that's when my shift at works ends. Next time, I'll just try this on a Redhat or something...see if that works instead. [20:48] rww: sry ;[ [20:48] Ganymede: Don't have acces right now and as I said the same happens on my system. Let me fiddle around with it a bot maybe I find the problem [20:48] undecim: Well, yeah, some of it seems to use the ambience theme and other stuff looks "old" === canon is now known as Acid190 === nathan is now known as Guest54057 [20:48] schnuffle1, Thanks for your help so far. [20:48] iamjebus: Have you relogged Ubuntu since it was like this? [20:49] iamjebus: I used to have a similar issue when gnome-settings-daemon didn't start right [20:49] undecim: I rebooted after installing the nvidia driver, will try again [20:49] lolcat: the only thing that I try to do my work correctly towards the people I need to service and for that I need the internet without any restrictions but he(my boss) doesn't want to understand that so I need to find a workarround in order to help my customers correclty [20:49] !virus [20:49] Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus [20:49] um [20:49] hello. I'd like the lock screen (after idle) to show the time (as my computer is the only time-telling thing in my office). Any clues? [20:49] i think that needs to be modified [20:51] whenever someone is ready, I got a question about deleting a custom package [20:51] i want to decompress .rar faster [20:51] any way? [20:51] !anyone | nathan_ [20:51] nathan_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [20:52] So, why do you think WINE could just fail? [20:52] anybody know anything about privoxy [20:52] cuz it was running fine yesterday now its GONE [20:52] Is it because I insttalled something incopatible with WINE? [20:52] is there any effective way to stop the Xserver [20:52] lol. the removal script is... not working for deleting the package [20:52] I reinstalled WINE and still [20:52] without dragging me into the pits of hell of run level 1 virtual terminals [20:52] I just tried 4 ubuntu paint programs and not a single one can successfully copy a section of an image in a simple clear way! Incredible! [20:52] I'd like to ignore the removal script anyways, and just remove the package without it [20:53] is that possible? [20:53] NooBoontoo: Did you install wine via the instructions at WineHQ.org? [20:53] undecim: hmm.. still not looking right :/ [20:53] iamjebus: What shows up as your thme under appearance? [20:53] undecim: Ambiance [20:53] :/ [20:53] iamjebus: change it to another [20:53] undecim: I compiled the 1.2.2 version like the readme file told me, but then I reinstalled 1.2.1 from Synaptic [20:53] iamjebus: And see if it changes it [20:53] undecim: tried before, doesn't help === ubuntu is now known as phemt888 [20:54] iamjebus: Have you tried alt+f2 and type "killall gnome-panel"? [20:54] undecim: will try [20:54] so is there a way to remove a package while ignoring its removal script? [20:54] iamjebus: Current WINE version is 1.3.10 [20:54] Do I need to uninstall the older version before i install a version that is not suported by Ubuntu? [20:55] undecim: Doesn't help :/ This is really weird [20:55] New laptop with a hung xorg. I can get alt+sysrq+r to drop me into raw, but I can't ctrl+alt+f# to another VT. Ideas? [20:55] iamjebus: Is it anything other than the panel? [20:56] How many versions of ubuntu can you have install on one pc ? [20:56] NooBoontoo: No you should be fine [20:56] iamjebus: Yes. Applications also look weird, except for the top bar. [20:56] NooBoontoo: The instructions from WineHQ setup a PPA, which will override Ubuntu's official Wine install, and even update it as if it were the official install [20:56] smiley__: as many as you can fit on your hard disk [20:57] iamjebus: A agree, that is odd. Though that means that the problem is with GTK. [20:57] isforins1cts, to switch between VTs the command is usually just ALT+F# (but I don't think it's going to help your issue) [20:57] so it wont break other ubuntu installs ? [20:57] hello [20:57] undecim....Oh, I didnt add that to the repository, I just compiled it [20:57] im knew to ubuntu [20:58] schnuffle1, Finally. I figured it out. sudo apt-get install lsb-core lsb-base lsb or something like that. [20:58] can anyone help me out === joseph is now known as Guest95131 [20:58] !anyone | joseph [20:58] joseph: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [20:58] ZykoticK9: Is it? well, let me try that with a fresh boot maybe? [20:58] schnuffle1, Not sure which of the three packages made it work...but it finally runs now...too bad I'm off the clock in 2 minutes so I still won't get around to seeing whether Maya 2011 actually works. [20:58] Welcome, Joseph. Go ahead and ask your questions and anyone who can help you will answer [20:58] undecim: Hmm... Very weird indeed. Will try reinstalling, perhaps something fucked up. Thanks for trying though :). [20:58] When I shutdown I can see some text before it hutdowns [20:58] holaa [20:58] isforins1cts, only on VT - from Xorg it's CTRL+ALT+F# [20:58] Ganymede: Was just reading about it as the ackage was called -lsb [20:59] schnuffle1, Hmm...didn't realize Ubuntu doesn't follow the "Linux Standard Base"...since I thought it was "standard"... [20:59] i updated the system with update manager ,now i have Two listings of Ubuntu in the Grub menu [20:59] any other ways to get into single usermode via grub? I have LVM, so I can't seem to hit shift fast enough (bios halts on stuck key) [20:59] is there a way to remove a package while ignoring its removal script? [20:59] !anyone | Guest95131 [20:59] Guest95131: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [21:00] Hmm...LSB support in "optional" in Debian variants...I never would have guessed. [21:00] Anyway, I have to go now, thanks for looking into it, schnuffle1. [21:00] isforins1cts: If you have another way to access the drive, you can change grub.cfg [21:00] Ganymede: Ganymede: have fun [21:00] isforins1cts: Usually, I have to hit the key as I see the bios logo [21:00] There is only a version for 10.04, I have 10.10, Will it still work? [21:01] HI people, I have a question about my ubuntu netbook remix [21:01] I am talking about WINE [21:01] undecim: encrypted ssd in a laptop, I wouldn't like to open it if I don't have to [21:01] Maybe a bios setting /me looks [21:01] NooBoontoo: At winehq.org, there should be a version for 10.10 [21:02] NooBoontoo: http://www.winehq.org/download/deb [21:02] undecim: There is not [21:02] I need solve problem with wicd "bad password" problem. Password for wpa is correct... [21:02] u know there is a wine irc channel /join @winehq [21:03] Oh I can change my display adaptor in bios, maybe this will work [21:03] is there a way to make gnome-screensaver show the current time? [21:03] ..if not on thje lock screen [21:03] undecim: Is it ok if I use just like this? sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa [21:03] NooBoontoo: Yup [21:04] NooBoontoo: And after that you will need to run "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get install wine" or "sudo apt-get install wine1.3" if you want the beta version [21:04] there are two listings for ubuntu in grub menu after update with update manager [21:04] are there any other key commands in X that would help me in keyboard raw mode? (trying to get to a vt to fix my xorg) [21:04] is there a way to flag a page on wiki.ubuntu.com as being totally incorrect? (one that's marked immutable, specifically) [21:05] NooBoontoo: Since you've already tried 1.2.2, you should try the beta 1.3 [21:05] sforins1cts: ALT+F2 should give you a terminal [21:06] schnuffle1: It isn't taking it for some reason. Maybe a fn key problem. [21:06] hey, i just installed a gt430, and my pci sound card doesnt show up in lspci anymore. all i see is an nvidia audio device (hdmi). is it possible to have the pci sound card detected? maybe through a kernel cmdline option? [21:06] I managed to get into grub! [21:06] undecim: I tought the 1.3 version was gonna be automatically appear in the update manager... but no [21:06] isforins1cts: Try Alt+Sysrq+g [21:06] isforins1cts: If you have an ATI or intel video card, that is [21:07] a new to ubuntu need some help, anyone/ [21:07] !anyone | midi [21:07] midi: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."

I have the nvidia/intel optimus thing [21:07] NooBoontoo: That's the newest one you can download [21:08] undecim. Ok thanks, I'll try that after I update [21:08] isforins1cts: It disables KMS, which is active on most ATI and intel cards by default [21:08] yesterday i installed ubuntu on my laptop, i downloaded the live laptop cd, and install it, was easy and i like it, but my right click on desktop is not workin [21:08] isforins1cts: It will switch you straight to a framebuffer console if You have KMS enabled [21:09] midi: Do you have any icons on your desktop? [21:09] undecim : no [21:09] midi: Press Alt+F2 and type "nautilus" [21:09] midi: And see if that fixes it [21:10] alt+f2 nothing happen [21:10] midi: Are you able to use the menu? [21:11] undecim: You seem like someone who knows, so, do you know how to fix the Nvidia xorg? [21:11] which menu you mean? [21:11] NooBoontoo: Don't know, actually. Never worked with Nv much [21:11] midi: The menu in the top left corner [21:11] midi: Applications/System/Places [21:12] undecim: The problem here is, Everytime I login to Ubuntu, my screen resolution allways is messed up, I go to root and change it and then save it, but still, everytime I login is the same [21:12] undecim : No i dont see it, all i see is windows alike icon [21:12] Hey guys I've never tried playing PC games on my computer, but I really don't know what my limit is.

[22:36] janicko, did you install wicd and are now trying to get it tio work without restarting the desktop or rebooting? [22:36] *to [22:38] Anyone, sorry for repeating; following up on 'fans continuously running even at low CPU loads'- two pastebin (502454 and 551644) - Quite annoying sound and I am worried about the machine (Dell Inspiron 8200 laptop). I have asked about this problem for a couple of months, [22:39] nit-wit:I already reboot it. I think to uninstall wicd and install again. Or downgrade from 1.7 to 1.6 what do you think wouldd help? [22:40] Anyone having issues with packages.ubuntu.com generating black pages occassionally? [22:41] janicko, wicd can be temperamental but once set up should work.I have not used it enough, or have the ability to open it to suggest. A X restart, or a reboot after the last loading if wicd is all I have. [22:41] intrader try looking at this thread. Has some good info you might find useful. Check out the links and read the whole thing. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-laptop-and-netbook-25/dell-inspiron-fan-speed-541488/ [22:42] intrader: according to the OP, this is the thread that fixed it for him. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2378034 [22:42] zooka, I will look at both and let you know, thanks [22:43] intrader: no problem.

I need an example for building my own package [22:43] Buenas tardes... [22:44] Also intrader, http://dellfand.dinglisch.net/ might be something to consider [22:44] janicko: what kind of wireless problem are you having? [22:44] although I've never used it myself [22:44] benc: just look in /etc/init/ there a lot already [22:45] bencc: dpkg -S /etc/init/*.conf [22:45] I'm trying to get to my router using https:// with FF and it refuses to connect because of the "certificate issued".

[22:49] * edbian comes in second [22:50] zooka, It looks that this is the right direction - I had added a Grub configuration to see if I could solve the problem, but it did not work:adding acpi_osi=Linux GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_osi=Linux [22:50] ok so i get this error: "ImportError: No module named wx" when I try and run mmass a python based program...anyone know what is up? [22:50] histo, edbian thanks but i am looking for something which actually looks like terminal, not a side-bar with info [22:50] janicko: does seeem to be a strange problem... have you tried disabling security, to see if you can get on an unsecured network? [22:50] Ub3r-N00b: conky looks like whatever you want. What about top? You could embed a terminal running top [22:51] edbian, thanks im gonna look for it [22:51] KM0201: how can i do that? I am not that profesional... [22:51] janicko: you would have to do that through your router... [22:52] KM0201: how... [22:52] intrader, did you look at the post by nachotronics? It seems to be the one that solves the problem in that scenerio. It's on the first page. I don't see where you should be editing grub.conf [22:52] janicko: are you actually typing your password into wicd, or areir wgat> you copy/pasting it from a file, [22:52] janicko: if its something you don't know how to do, then you probably shouldn't be doing it. [22:52] janicko: and i only meant to disable it as a temporary test anyway [22:53] zooka, how did you find these posts? - I would like to research better. I was just stabbing around. I hope I did not mess things up. [22:53] what is the 'name' of the current ubuntu 10.10 ? [22:53] Hey!

[22:54] Median: you don't wanna do that, big security risk [22:54] I need to do that. As i have no option to even access the computer if it crashes. [22:54] I'm sure your fine intrader. As for research, I ussually enter relevent terms on google first, then ubuntu forums. If I don't get it from there I try different (but synonomous) terms instead and repeat the process a couple times [22:55] Well, i do, but it's really annoying to get there. [22:55] Ub3r-N00b: guake or one of the drop down terminals maybe? [22:55] intrader: that usually works for me. 99.999% of the time, someone has already posted about the problem and gotten advice to fix it [22:55] Ub3r-N00b: or use a terminal and run top or htop [22:55] sandyd: I remembering doing that with Windows, wouldn't it work with Ubuntu as well?

[22:57] Median: because openssh does not crash easily. [22:57] IcarianHeights: "/me leans in" [22:57] sandyd: Nah.. I could easily fix that. I mean if the computer itself crashes due to power break etc. [22:58] zooka: lol, thx [22:58] Median: if that happens, the GUI won't work. [22:58] * zooka leans in [22:58] noooo problem [22:58] Median: you would have to manually go to the computer and fsck it [22:59] zooka, unfortunately when I do `sudo apt-get install i8kutils gkrellm gkrellm-i8k` I get the errors: 'E: Unable to locate package gkrelim' and 'E: Unable to locate package gkrelim-i8k' [22:59] Oh right, sorry, mixed it up a little, tired :P === root is now known as Guest51219 [22:59] I'm looking for a recommendation on a time tracking app (I'm a freelance programmer).

[22:59] zooka, spelling error on my part! [23:00] lmao ok [23:00] intrader, go to synaptic to install it [23:01] sandyd: Or [23:01] hello guys [23:01] Can i run VNC without logging in?

Is there any way to fix this? [23:02] lol I was too lazy to type out the full name [23:02] Median: tightvnc and the others allow you to log in remotely [23:02] Can someone help me? [23:02] and "hi bi" amused m [23:02] me* [23:02] zooka,nit-wit,I will try synaptic --- I get this error for sure: 'E: Unable to locate package gkrellm-i8k' [23:02] Median: if your computer crashes, and needs to be fsck'ed, it wouldn't even reach that part of startup [23:02] tensorpudding: Really? As i couldn't do that before.. [23:02] Median: but if you want VNC, before you dive into it, you should consider using NX instead [23:02] intrader: ok if it's not in synaptic let me know [23:02] whats up BiCoBoz? [23:03] Median: it would simply boot to the fsck screen [23:03] whats the problem * [23:03] tensorpudding: I'm only able to use TightVNC etc when i've logged in on the computer. [23:03] intrader, your syntax is incorrect just look up gkrellm in synaptic the i8k will be there [23:03] sandyd: As i said, misunderstood everything, just ignore my previous questions :P [23:03] Hi - does anyone know why my wifi on ubuntu 10.10 would just stop working? It can detect wifi networks but it can no longer connect to it, keeps saying password is wrong (and it isnt, my other laptops can connect fine) [23:03] I am new to linux and dont know where to start. everyone says to go on google ... but man does not know what material start reading!
