| schnuffle1 | shawndrost: my advice: update your system if you're linux save or compile apache and create a package from the source otherwise. that way its easier to revert if you have problems | 00:00 |

| schnuffle1 | shawndrost: normally an update is painless, but sometimes you have to correct something | 00:01 |
| Starminn | chaos2358, :) Just making sure. Alright, well the only thing I'm left with is just reinstalling it. Just back up your Home folder and reinstall Ubuntu. May be killing a fly with a bazooka but at least it'll work. (Anybody else wanna chime in?) | 00:01 |

| Luigiana | can some1 help me? i have troubles installing ubuntu | 00:03 |
| shawndrost | schnuffle1: thanks. by "create a package", do you mean create my own apt package, or just compile the new version? | 00:03 |
| mike_miller | rumpe1: How? To point to what? | 00:03 |
| Confused | I did all that and I reconfigured everything using dpkg-reconfigure. | 00:03 |

| rumpe1 | mike_miller, to another mirror | 00:04 |
| barack_osama | try to add | 00:05 |
| Confused | In fact, I purged all of the media players and libreaddvd and libdvdcss and reinstalled everything. | 00:05 |

| barack_osama | dont remember number exactly | 00:05 |
| yayoj1 | luigiana: which version are you installing? | 00:05 |
| rumpe1 | mike_miller, 404 means the current mirror you are using is not available | 00:05 |
| schnuffle1 | shawndrost: you can use the checkinstall tool to create a de package, or you get the ubuntu package source ana create it with the debian tool. first way is easier second one cleaner and gets you all dependencies | 00:05 |
| Luigiana | im installing the 10.10 | 00:05 |

| g_0_0 | chaos2358, have you tried reinstalling gnome-main-menu, maybe I'm not following what the problem is | 00:06 |
| OttifantSir | chaos2358: How did you install? Synaptic? Did you open it from CLI? If so, did you start it with sudo synaptic or gksudo synaptic? | 00:06 |
| usr13 | Confused: How about libdvdcss ? | 00:06 |
| mike_miller | Also, I don't have a GUI. What would I use instead of synpatic? Would editing source.list have the same effect? | 00:06 |
| chaos2358 | one sec guys. | 00:06 |
| schnuffle1 | mike_miller: yes | 00:07 |
| === nathan is now known as nmr8 | ||
| yayoj1 | luigiana: will Ubuntu be the primary os on your drive? | 00:07 |
| Confused | I reinstalled libdvdcss after purging it but libdvdcss is actually working and has always worked. It generates the key, but the DVD play. This isn't a decryption problem, or at least I don't think it is. | 00:07 |
| Luigiana | yea | 00:07 |
| mike_miller | okay, so what mirror WOULD have linux_2.6.35-24.42, if not security.ubuntu.com? | 00:07 |
| chaos2358 | g_0_0, ok it gives invalid command trying to install. | 00:07 |
| rumpe1 | mike_miller, yes, you could edit sources.list | 00:08 |
| usr13 | Confused: Maybe codecs need to be installed or re-installed, (not complete or lacking in some way)... | 00:08 |
| chaos2358 | OttifantSir, I tried installing via sudo apt-get in terminal | 00:08 |
| Confused | Did all of that. | 00:08 |
| schnuffle1 | mike_miller: do a aptitude update and retry | 00:08 |
| usr13 | Confused: DO you have GStreamer codecs ? | 00:08 |
| Confused | Yes, I do. | 00:08 |
| Confused | All purged and reinstalled. | 00:08 |
| Midas3 | Confused: permissions for the dvd-drive do allow your user? another strange idea would be to check for libdvdnav version, though it is not necessary to play dvds | 00:09 |
| mike_miller | schnuffle1: looks like that did the trick, thanks | 00:09 |
| rumpe1 | mike_miller, mirrors are e.g. in /usr/share/update-manager/mirrors.cfg | 00:09 |
| yayoj1 | luigiana: I have seen graphics card errors with 10.10, I would try the lts release of Ubuntu, version 10.04. there really isn't much of a difference. | 00:09 |
| yayoj1 | second are you installing through a thumb drive or dvd? | 00:10 |
| schnuffle1 | mike_miller: that happens when you don't have the latest repo infos and something has changed | 00:10 |
| aeon-ltd | Ivis: just right click on any flash embedded media, then it should have some options; also if you're using compiz disable that, it may make the video smoother | 00:10 |
| Confused | I am in the cdrom group which seems to be all of the permissions I should need, but just to be sure, I changed the permissions for /dev/dvd to 777 just for testing purposes. When that didn't work, I changed them back to what they should be. | 00:10 |
| OttifantSir | chaos2358: OK. I just remembered that opening GUI-apps with sudo from a terminal can give you problems. | 00:11 |

| g_0_0 | chaos2358, no luck reinstalling gnome-main-menu? | 00:12 |
| usr13 | Confused: I'm still thinking it's a video driver prolem. See http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/news.html | 00:12 |
| chaos2358 | g_0_0, no in terminal it gives invalid command and i cant find the package in synap or software center. | 00:12 |
| Confused | How do you think that would help usr13? They all use the same basic libraries. If it were a video driver problem, how would I be able to play ripped dvd's using the same players? | 00:12 |
| usr13 | Confused: Let me ask you this; Is this 10.04 system fully updated? | 00:13 |
| OttifantSir | chaos2358: Not really. I thought about maybe installing ubuntu-desktop to see if that solved it, but that's ONE big package, and isn't what I'd try so soon | 00:13 |
| g_0_0 | chaos2358, so sudo apt-get install gnome-main-menu doesn't work? | 00:13 |
| usr13 | Confused: What command are you using to tell mplayer to play DVD? | 00:14 |
| Confused | Yes, I am fully updated. I am running kubuntu by the way in case that makes any difference. | 00:14 |
| OttifantSir | chaos2358: Have you checked your enabled repos? In Synaptic or sources.list | 00:14 |

| nikrud | robehend1, if you're talking about an ubuntu mirror you can search for a faster one via the edit software sources in the software center | 00:22 |

| bozdog | still have the google earth installed, it works ok apart from the fonts are all illegible | 00:31 |
| robehend1 | nikrud: they are. easiest way is to just change the theme to clearlooks, but you can change it in gconf as well | 00:31 |
| robehend1 | LinuxNoob: try running steam from the terminal, via wine /path/to/steam . it should give you any crash errors | 00:32 |
| bozdog | and it doesn't appear on the list of installed applications | 00:32 |
| nikrud | thanks robehend1 . I'm poking around again - nice to see that the underpinnings are still recognizable | 00:32 |
| Linfert | Mhhh, yes, i know, but, they do not respond... | 00:32 |
| LinuxNoob | how do i find the path to steam? its on my desktop | 00:32 |
| LinuxNoob | (im complete noob to this) | 00:32 |
| robehend1 | LinuxNoob: that case, the path would be /home/username/Desktop/, etc etc | 00:32 |
| gunndawg | LinuxNoob, you might also look under the Applications menu at the top of ur screen | 00:33 |
| LinuxNoob | so "wine /home/cameron/desktop/steam or steam.exe | 00:33 |
| robehend1 | LinuxNoob: steam.exe | 00:33 |
| gunndawg | LinuxNoob, look under Applications menu at the top of ur screen | 00:33 |

| jrib | brandon420: how did you install it and what is "it"? | 00:49 |
| brandon420 | installed with a cd, and its 9.04 | 00:50 |
| GeekMan | am i gonna have to compile this sucker ? | 00:50 |
| knoppies | jpdev, sounds like something is hogging your ram. I assume a memory leak, could you use top or htop (or even conky) to have a look? | 00:50 |
| jrib | !9.04 | brandon420 | 00:50 |
| ubottu | brandon420: Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) was the tenth release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: October 23, 2010. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. | 00:50 |
| jpdev | i had last LTS with all compiz gear working just fine, switched to lucid and then melt down | 00:50 |

| GeekMan | hold on a second | 00:50 |
| xyclo | Hi, My problem of today is that Pulseaudio disconnects from Skype and Firefox after a while. Any ideas? Ubuntu Studio 10.04, rt kernel | 00:50 |
| jrib | brandon420: (that's not why you can't tab-complete but you need to upgrade anyway so might as well sort that out first) | 00:50 |
| brandon420 | jrib, i tried to update yesterday, and it didnt turn out well, my computer got slow as hell. | 00:50 |
| jpdev | for the moment, top doesn't tell me anything, since i've just boot | 00:50 |
| GeekMan | let me type it in .... i cant install xchat on this thing so im using my desktop | 00:50 |
| jrib | brandon420: you're being too vague, I can't really say anything | 00:51 |
| jpdev | no full ubuntu user for 7 years | 00:51 |

| brandon420 | jrib, all im saying, is i upgraded to 10.04 yesterday, my computer got hella slow, like a lag in everything. and couldnt update further. so i reinstalled and im going to stick with 9.04 | 00:51 |
| brandon420 | i just want "tab" to effin work | 00:52 |
| Julien | xyclo: you must recompile the alsa_core module to v.1.0.23.12 | 00:52 |
| jrib | brandon420: do you understand why it's a really bad idea to use an unsupported release? | 00:52 |

| jrib | edbian: brandon is sticking with 9.04 | 00:52 |
| brandon420 | jrib, not for what i use my computer for, no. and like i said, 10.04 made it hella slow | 00:53 |
| edbian | jrib, which is also supported right now | 00:53 |
| GeekMan | ok wait a sec | 00:53 |
| jrib | edbian: eh? | 00:53 |
| Julien | jpdev: after 7 years, try w7. No memory leaks and rock stable ! | 00:53 |
| brandon420 | i still get updates.... | 00:53 |
| === helper132 is now known as UbuntuUser16 | ||
| brandon420 | either way, 10.xx is slow as hell, even on a quad core | 00:53 |
| UbuntuUser16 | Agree | 00:53 |
| GeekMan | so in the term just type tar zxvf install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz | 00:54 |

| edbian | jrib, Can you cite a source? | 00:56 |
| UbuntuUser16 | LinxuNoob, its because Steam isn't made for Ubuntu. Get Virtualbox | 00:56 |
| LinuxNoob | im using wine | 00:56 |
| LinuxNoob | is virtualbox better? | 00:56 |
| UbuntuUser16 | Wine isn't that great | 00:56 |
| brandon420 | UbuntuUser16, i notice that too, but when it needs em, it will use all the processors | 00:56 |
| LinuxNoob | gotcha | 00:56 |
| UbuntuUser16 | Virtualbox allows you to run Windows in Linux | 00:56 |
| jrib | edbian: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | 00:56 |
| ubuntu_ | HI | 00:56 |
| philip_ | LinuxNoob Virtualbox is a Virtual OS install thing. | 00:56 |
| edbian | jrib, Alright I believe you. Thanks | 00:57 |
| ubuntu_ | I'M NEW USER UBUNTU | 00:57 |
| philip_ | Please take off Caps. | 00:57 |
| LinuxNoob | what os should i install to keep this comp super fast, while still playing games :D | 00:57 |
| Midas3 | but virtualbox and so on could be quite difficult to get hardware accelerated 3d working iirc | 00:57 |
| UbuntuUser16 | LinuxNoob, Tiny7 | 00:57 |
| jrib | brandon420: your machine can definitely run 10.04 smoothly | 00:57 |
| LinuxNoob | ive got a fast labtop | 00:57 |
| GeekMan | it needs a file directory so i jsut chang the terminals dir | 00:57 |
| brandon420 | jrib, it doesnt. | 00:57 |
| GeekMan | right? | 00:57 |
| brandon420 | lol. | 00:57 |
| jrib | brandon420: of course it does | 00:57 |
| LinuxNoob | i know the guy that made tiny7 :D | 00:57 |
| UbuntuUser16 | Linuxnoob, what CPU/GPU do you have? | 00:57 |
| brandon420 | jrib, i updated to that yesterday, and had to reinstall 9.04 cause it was so slow, not to mention 10.04 is ugly as hell | 00:58 |
| jrib | brandon420: maybe you had compiz enabled and didn't get a chance to install video drivers? Hard to speculate. | 00:58 |
| LinuxNoob | uhhh, lemme check..(where at..im windows savy..not linux savvy) and i forgot my specs | 00:58 |
| brandon420 | i had compiz installed, and had updated my drivers before i nuked it | 00:58 |
| usr13 | GeekMan: Yea, that's right. | 00:58 |
| usr13 | GeekMan: was on the phone.... | 00:58 |
| bindi | Hey! I have a laptop, Toshiba Satellite Pro A100 (PSAACE), and running Ubuntu 10.10. I had this problem, no sounds, that got (barely) fixed by adding options snd-hda-intel model=auto to the end of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf - though now the sound is very very quiet, even when boosted over 100%. alsamixer states everything is to the max, but master doesnt have a bar/value.. | 00:58 |
| bindi | aplay -l says HDA Intel, ALC861 | 00:59 |
| usr13 | GeekMan: Wait.. What did you say? | 00:59 |
| ubu | IS there a Bluefish CHANNEL? | 00:59 |
| GeekMan | nvm hold on | 00:59 |
| brandon420 | bindi, no sound, or is it really quiet? | 00:59 |
| usr13 | GeekMan: tar zxvf install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz ; sudo mv libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ # That's all there is to it. | 00:59 |
| bindi | brandon420: really quiet | 00:59 |
| jrib | brandon420: I'd recommend troubleshooting your issues with 10.04 or trying 10.10 instead | 00:59 |
| bindi | i get only left channel (headphones plugged in atm) | 00:59 |
| UbuntuUser16 | Bindi go to your audio settings | 00:59 |
| UbuntuUser16 | I had the same problem, Ubuntu is weird there | 00:59 |
| brandon420 | bindi, open a terminal and type "alsamixer" | 01:00 |
| bindi | brandon420: did that | 01:00 |
| bindi | its 100 as i said | 01:00 |
| bindi | and boosted to 140% or so from the gui | 01:00 |
| brandon420 | and turned up the first one? | 01:00 |
| bindi | master can not be turne | 01:00 |
| bindi | d | 01:00 |
| brandon420 | hmmmss | 01:00 |
| GeekMan | so what after that just try it out agian | 01:00 |

| brandon420 | KM0201, thats what i was thinking, but ill give it a shot | 01:04 |
| GeekMan | they dont even keep the os up to date on it its running hardy lol | 01:04 |
| edbian | LinuxNoob, nope, it can just address more memory and handle bigger single values | 01:04 |

| jrib | brandon420: !burn gives you several options | 01:06 |
| pksadiq | brandon420: every answer starting with ! is to invoke the bot to say the answer | 01:07 |

| ariqs | maco: Package unrar-nonfree is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 01:08 |
| jrib | firtyx: that's fine, yes | 01:08 |
| maco | ariqs: enabe multiverse in your software sources | 01:08 |
| pksadiq | !find unrar | ariqs | 01:08 |
| ubottu | ariqs: Found: unrar-free, libclamunrar6, unrar | 01:08 |
| GeekMan | under the application manager the only internet app there is skype | 01:08 |
| maco | oh | 01:08 |
| GeekMan | yeah | 01:08 |
| jrib | firtyx: note, you can also use: apt-get purge PACKAGE nowadays | 01:08 |
| maco | hrmph did naming swap? | 01:08 |
| maco | ariqs: sorry | 01:09 |
| jrib | ariqs: you very likely want unrar, not unrar-free | 01:09 |
| KG | jrib: Sorry, habit. But since then, GStreamer can't find any plugins but the core elements like fakesrc/sink. When I use gst-inspect, only 20 elements are listed. However, /usr/libs/gstreamer-0.10 is filled with all the plugin .so's that GStreamer can't find. | 01:09 |
| ariqs | np, it's just I have unrar hitting on a different file in the archive as corrupt each time. | 01:09 |
| maco | jrib: this seems backwards of how things normally get named. that is, the free one is plain, and the nonfree one is -nonfree | 01:09 |
| GeekMan | its gnome but a funky version of it theres no way to use the gui to change settings for update manager | 01:09 |
| firtyx | thanks jrib thats all bye | 01:09 |
| ariqs | and I wanted to try a different unrar to figure it out since unrar is being ridiculous | 01:09 |
| bindi | g_0_0: ah i think i found something | 01:09 |
| g_0_0 | bindi, ? | 01:10 |
| bindi | Codec: LSI Si3054 | 01:10 |
| jrib | maco: it used to be like that many releases ago, I guess too many people were grabbing the free version and it's pretty useless | 01:10 |
| bindi | how do i get rid of this? | 01:10 |
| GeekMan | i could go on about this hp linux but im not | 01:10 |

| g_0_0 | bindi, you have checked sound preferences | 01:12 |
| bindi | yes.. | 01:12 |
| jrib | KG: hmm, I don't remember much about gstreamer... But, what does this return: which gst-inspect | 01:13 |

| ruffleS | ActionParsnip, should i use it then? will it make any difference to my lappy? | 01:48 |
| rww | Julien: #ubuntu is for technical support, not silliness. Thanks. | 01:48 |
| ActionParsnip | digirak: run sudo -i and you can then issue the cd command seperately | 01:48 |
| ActionParsnip | ruffleS: if you have 32bit OS and all your RAM isn't being used then PAE will make it get used | 01:48 |

| Julien | rww: tanks a lot for you comprohension | 01:49 |
| digirak | ActionParsnip: wow that worked but then the local is highlighted in green | 01:49 |
| digirak | why? | 01:49 |
| juniour | KM0201 WT ARE YOU TALKING ABT? | 01:50 |
| KM0201 | juniour: did you not ask how to remove ubuntu 10.10? | 01:50 |
| nicofs | jrib, in the end, rootstock creates a tar. i can tell rootstock what shall be inside - but not with which rights... i assume that in most cases it's correct - but even un-taring can have an effect on ownership... so the best and most efficient way to sort out my problem would be to manually adjust what went wrong... | 01:50 |
| ActionParsnip | digirak: how do you mean 'local'? | 01:50 |
| juniour | KM0201 how to remove that i wanna to use 10.04 thata y i waan to remove | 01:51 |
| digirak | ActionParsnip: see its like this | 01:51 |
| KM0201 | juniour: just install 10.04 over 10.10. | 01:51 |
| jrib | nicofs: tar will preserve permissions by default and keep them intact when you extract as superuser by default (maybe pass --preserve-permissions during extract to be sure) | 01:51 |
| digirak | ActionParsnip: i am trying to run cmakekde and it gives a permission error on usr/local/bin | 01:51 |
| ruffleS | ActionParsnip, ok thanks. one last question. i guess i'll get it installed so what is the metapackage i should install? would it be linux-generic-pae? and also, does it include the ubuntu patches? | 01:51 |
| juniour | KM0201 last time i did the sam but it dident work | 01:52 |
| digirak | ActionParsnip: and i am trying to change the permissions but then the directory has read permissions | 01:52 |
| frotzed | juniour: afaik you'll need to backup your necessary data and reformat/reinstall. I could be wrong though. | 01:52 |
| nicofs | jrib, yes, but even so - the fact that i don't install but just extract is complex... numeric ownership and so on... | 01:52 |
| juniour | frotzed i am ona dual boot with win7 | 01:53 |

| nicofs | jrib, i just changed ownership of /lib from 500 to root - resulting in the network manager to disappear... | 01:54 |
| frotzed | juniour: have you manually removed the 10.10 partition and installed 10.04 in its place? | 01:54 |
| juniour | frotzed alongside other operating system | 01:54 |
| jrib | nicofs: look, the best way is to this properly, preserving permissions from the start | 01:54 |
| rcmaehl | How do I fix this Kernel Panic? | 01:54 |
| juniour | frotzed now i have done nothing | 01:55 |
| jrib | nicofs: if that's not possible, you can use getfacl -R to record the permissions of the original file and then restore them on this | 01:55 |
| juniour | ? | 01:55 |
| Snowman1 | I just installed linux and it says i need a vga compatible controller. where do i download one from? | 01:55 |

| nicofs | jrib, but what would be the original file? | 01:55 |
| juniour | ? | 01:55 |
| jrib | nicofs: the files you created the tar from | 01:56 |

| sagaci | is dapper server EOL in june? | 01:56 |
| Snowman1 | ok that is the thing i went to that and all i have are 2 different broadcom installs. i have done 1 but nothing else is there. | 01:57 |
| rww | sagaci: yes | 01:57 |
| ActionParsnip | sagaci: yes https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | 01:57 |
| Snowman1 | my buddy told me i need to find out what to get so it can be | 01:57 |
| nicofs | jrib, but what if indeed rootstock creates them wrong... | 01:57 |
| rww | sagaci: dapper = 6.06 = June 2006. LTS for server is 5 years, so June 2011. | 01:57 |
| sagaci | thanks | 01:58 |
| jrib | nicofs: I was under the impression you used rootstock to create the tar.gz from some install, is that not the case? | 01:58 |
| frotzed | juniour: I believe there are several tuts online. Basically your task is to boot to a live 10.04 CD, remove the 10.10 partition (might be able to use the gui) and then select that partition as the one in which you'd like to install 10.04. GRUB should take care of itself. | 01:58 |
| nicofs | jrib, rootstock takes packages from the repositories and uses qemu to emulate a system where to install them (thats how i understand it) - enough room for mistakes | 01:59 |

| Tohuw | I'm having issues getting Wifi working on an HP Mini 1010nr with Ubuntu NE 10.10. I followed the steps at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks#HP%20Mini%201010nr, but after updating WL I don't see anything in the Additional Drivers manager except the b43 drivers (no STA). The first time I tried it, STA did show up and that driver actually worked. Now it's gone from the list... any ideas? | 02:03 |
| nicofs | jrib, as root on host system. | 02:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Tohuw: try a reboot | 02:04 |
| gbear14275 | Is there a config file which determines the layout of the desktop bar? I've noticed that my arrangement is significantly different from thoseof new users I create. Is there a way to "reset" the config file so it goes back to default? | 02:04 |
| Tohuw | ActionParsnip: I did, that's what made it disappear from the list :D I'll try another though | 02:04 |
| rww | ubottu: resetpanel | gbear14275 | 02:04 |
| ubottu | gbear14275: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 02:04 |

| nicofs | jrib, host: ubuntu, target: shared internal storage of android 2.1 | 02:05 |
| Tohuw | ActionParsnip: I should have also mentioned, it can't connect to networks, but I can see the networks. (as opposed to when I first installed the OS and the driver wasn't even present) | 02:05 |
| djjonex | hello everybody | 02:07 |
| frotzed | Tohuw: what kind of router / wireless security are you trying to connect to? | 02:07 |
| SushiDude | Fredo42, hi | 02:07 |
| frotzed | djjonex: hello | 02:07 |
| jrib | nicofs: well I don't know how to fetch the permission data in a tar.gz, but checking that would see if rootstock is to blame or not (I found no bugs to the effect). Otherwise, try passing -p to tar and see if it makes a difference | 02:07 |
| djjonex | i wanto to setup a outgoing mail server to work with php (mail()) | 02:07 |
| Tohuw | frotzed: WPA2 on a Cisco SMB router. I connected just fine to a linksys using wpa2 earlier today though. | 02:08 |
| frotzed | Tohuw: so the _only_ thing that has changed is the router? | 02:08 |
| Tohuw | frotzed: That and restarting. I have no issues with this router on another ubuntu system, though (granted, it's using an atheros) | 02:09 |
| Tohuw | ActionParsnip: frotzed: now the STA shows up again, but trying to install either yields the message: InstallArchives() failed | 02:09 |
| nicofs | jrib, the thing is that "restarting" is really only my last resort... since getting this system running was quite some work... and since then i added lots of other things, drivers, firmware - somewhere in this process some ownerships have gone wrong - all i really need is the info, what should be owned by who... | 02:09 |
| djjonex | nobody knows about localhost mail server? i need to configure one | 02:09 |
| Tohuw | !anyone | djjonex | 02:10 |
| ubottu | djjonex: 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? | 02:10 |
| jrib | nicofs: extract it properly somewhere else then get the info there (you can use getfacl trick for this) | 02:10 |
| djjonex | i was trying to configure Sendmail Mail Server | 02:10 |
| djjonex | but not lucky | 02:10 |
| rww | djjonex: try postfix instead. It's less arcane. | 02:11 |
| SushiDude | my friend ran 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop', and now it always says kubuntu at start up | 02:11 |
| rww | !postfilx | djjonex | 02:11 |

| rcmaehl | What do I do I if have no fstab? | 02:12 |
| pragmaticenigma | edbian: that should clear out the old kernel references? | 02:12 |
| edbian | pragmaticenigma, if the kernels are no longer on the system. But if you remove those packages it takes them off the list and updates it for you. | 02:12 |
| edbian | rcmaehl, Are you SURE? How does your OS find the / drive? | 02:13 |
| pragma_ | pragmaticenigma: what is wrong with your name? it looks like it has a cancerous growth of letters on it | 02:13 |
| pragma_ | also, it's too long | 02:13 |

| rcmaehl | IDK but according to ls-ing into the /etc/ dir after getting stuck at (initramfs) there's no fstab\ | 02:13 |
| jrib | nicofs: what says that? | 02:13 |
| edbian | john-john1, metacity --replace | 02:14 |
| rcmaehl | edbian: IDK but according to ls-ing into the /etc/ dir after getting stuck at (initramfs) there's no fstab\ | 02:14 |
| john-john1 | thank you | 02:14 |
| pragma_ | my whois says "pragmatic chaos" | 02:14 |
| * pragma_ wins. | 02:14 | |
| nicofs | jrib, extracting and having a look at the owner states "500"... | 02:14 |
| edbian | rcmaehl, oh, you're stuck at initramfs (now this makes sense) You could write it by hand? Do you have busybox? | 02:14 |
| edbian | john-john1, sure | 02:15 |
| rcmaehl | edbian: idk how to | 02:15 |
| jrib | nicofs: then it may be an issue with rootstock | 02:15 |
| rcmaehl | but yes it says busybox | 02:15 |

| === taka is now known as Guest46766 | ||
| nicofs | jrib, it's not only rootstock - as i said it's also all the other things i added - so it really would be helpful to know how it should be on a running system... | 02:16 |
| rcmaehl | edbian: umm idk | 02:16 |
| rcmaehl | doesn't look like it in the help | 02:16 |
| edbian | rcmaehl, type nano, press enter | 02:16 |
| edbian | rcmaehl, this will help in writing it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fstab | 02:16 |
| jrib | nicofs: what do you mean "it's also all the other things I added"? | 02:16 |
| rcmaehl | edbian: /bin/sh: nano: not found | 02:16 |
| jrib | nicofs: you have a running system anyway, don't you? The host ubuntu system? | 02:17 |

| rcmaehl | edbian: how do I write it? | 02:18 |
| nicofs | jrib, i had hoped there is a better way that taking my host's filesystem and going through all folders on it... | 02:18 |
| frotzed | Tohuw: Perhaps it has some other security measures in place other than a simple encryption. | 02:18 |
| edbian | rcmaehl, you should probably just follow this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=895273 | 02:18 |
| Tohuw | frotzed: I am absolutely certain it is not the fault of the router. There is something strange going on with the OS itself... the STA driver appears and disappears out of jockey, and trying to install the lph version of b43 driver, which is what it really should be using, doesn't work because the URL the deb pulls from is dead. | 02:18 |
| singularity | can you guys suggest any great universal tech forums that i can join ? | 02:18 |
| djjonex | ubuntuforums | 02:19 |
| philoski | djjonex: lol | 02:19 |
| Tohuw | frotzed: I'm a network engineer by trade. :) This is a ubuntu 10.10/b43 issue. | 02:19 |
| Tohuw | not a cisco router issue. | 02:19 |
| djjonex | XD | 02:19 |
| singularity | yeah, by unviersal i mean everything inside technology | 02:19 |
| jrib | nicofs: of course! The better way is to get the permissions right from the start! But asking here for the permissions of folders would just give you the same info you already have from your ubuntu system. Like I said, if it's not possible to do the permissions properly for whatever reason, you can use getfacl/setfacl to copy permissions over | 02:19 |
| djjonex | u know they have everything there | 02:19 |
| Tohuw | singularity: tomshardware.com | 02:19 |
| nicofs | jrib, as such nothing went wrong - but things that should work don't... for instance wifi - when i do "ifconfig ra0 up" all i get is SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not permitted | 02:19 |

| gbear14275 | thanks rww | 02:19 |
| frotzed | Tohuw: gotcha ;) Then you're more advanced than me. | 02:19 |
| philoski | djjonex: They have everything, but it's far from great.. | 02:19 |
| jrib | nicofs: but that's probably caused by the original permissions issue, no? | 02:20 |

| rcmaehl | edbian: well when i'm on live cd fstab appears but when i boot from grub it doesn't | 02:22 |
| edbian | rcmaehl, that's because you're looking at the live CD's /etc/fstab, you'd have to mount your Ubuntu partition and copy /etc/fstab over (then edit it appropriate) | 02:22 |
| rcmaehl | no I'm on /media/(UUID here)/etc/fstab | 02:23 |

| rcmaehl | yes | 02:23 |
| datakid | can I get some help with rsync or can someone point me to where I can get some help with rsync | 02:23 |
| edbian | rcmaehl, Well then you my friend need to boot (the system, not the live CD) and look for errors to figure out why you're getting dumped to busybox. It's possible that the / partition is not being mounted so you're not seeing your /etc/fstab even though it is there. | 02:24 |
| SushiDude | rcmaehl, oh hi =P | 02:24 |
| edbian | datakid, I can help. More specifically what is the problem? | 02:25 |
| pooltable | is there a way to have 2 hard drive one with windows os the other with ubuntu and both boot at the same time if so how ? | 02:25 |
| edbian | pooltable, It is not possible to boot two OS's at the same time. | 02:26 |

| pooltable | ok | 02:26 |
| datakid | edbian, I am backing up a 550GB drive. I've done a 3 day cp -a to get 500 across. Now I want to rsync the remaining files, but only those that don't already exist in the destination | 02:26 |
| rcmaehl | just noticed that | 02:26 |
| edbian | pooltable, You can have two running at the same time using virtualization. but one is the host OS and one is virtual | 02:26 |
| pooltable | edbin ok | 02:26 |
| edbian | rcmaehl, That's cause you're not really booting into Ubuntu. So the whole ubuntu / is not available. Busybox is very limited. Do you see any errors during the Ubuntu boot? | 02:27 |
| === richard is now known as Guest61568 | ||

| edbian | datakid, ok hang on, I have to think | 02:27 |
| edbian | datakid, Should it delete files that are at the destination that are not at the source? | 02:27 |
| datakid | edbian, for some reason I get the impression that rsync will actually overwrite or re-copy files that allready exist | 02:27 |
| edbian | pooltable, virtualbox is neat like that :) | 02:27 |
| datakid | I only want the diff | 02:28 |
| datakid | edbian, yes, I have --delete already | 02:28 |
| edbian | datakid, rsync is built specifically to easily do what you want | 02:28 |
| edbian | datakid, -u is the flag you're looking for | 02:28 |
| rcmaehl | edbian: yes something about something not mounting or something it whent by too fast | 02:29 |

For example, it would be nice to have a single shortcut which launches a couple programs and positions them appropriately on the screen as well. | 02:58 |
| edbian | rcmaehl, yeah, it should say stuff about 'found this kernel' and 'found that kernel' Is your grub menu totally erased? | 02:58 |
| rcmaehl | edbian: update-grub2 not found | 02:58 |

| LinuxNoob | i spent forever trying to open somethin stupid on my desktop, to find out that i had to say /Desktop not /desktop >.> | 03:46 |
| brandon420 | ActionParsnip, we appreciate it. | 03:47 |
| knoppies | LinuxNoob, on linux, capitals ALWAYS (ok, almost always) matter. | 03:47 |
| LinuxNoob | knoppies: i know that now :D | 03:47 |
| LinuxNoob | only after like..30 minutes of fustration | 03:47 |
| brandon420 | lfmaoooo | 03:47 |
| bobboau | ok, so, I have just installed 10.10 on a zotac nm10-a-e mobo and I cannot get the 5.1 sound | 03:47 |
| brandon420 | everything is case sensitive | 03:47 |
| fool_ | LinuxNoob: try bash-completion | 03:47 |
| knoppies | LinuxNoob, yea, some of us have been there too. | 03:47 |
| * brandon420 hates it | 03:47 | |
| LinuxNoob | well. i dod formated my hdd, and linux is my only os | 03:47 |
| izinucs | I just plugged in a usb stick and waited.. then did lsusb and it is recognized but not mounting.. how do I mount it? | 03:47 |
| pksadiq | LinuxNoob: but usually variables are named in capitals . try the export command and see some | 03:47 |
| LinuxNoob | i know how to use windows like a master pokemon trainer | 03:48 |
| brandon420 | now time to add over 11k songs to banshee =/ | 03:48 |
| pksadiq | !tab | LinuxNoob | 03:48 |
| ubottu | LinuxNoob: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 03:48 |
| maco | ActionParsnip: that's /old/ ... see 8.04? even the one that says 386 is now 686 | 03:48 |
| yondering | hola. anybody know of a utility to view which mouse button is which when I click them? | 03:48 |
| LinuxNoob | o_o | 03:48 |
| maco | yondering: xev | 03:48 |
| pksadiq | ActionParsnip: what is the difference between 386 and 686? | 03:48 |
| LinuxNoob | the way i installed it, was i Have to learn what im doing to do it, i cant go back to windows :D | 03:48 |
| whiteshadow | trying to install from usb, but getting cannot mount cd-rom, ideas? | 03:48 |
| LinuxNoob | inless..i reinstall it ofcourse, which i wont do, inless i have to for a project for school lol | 03:49 |
| yondering | maco, that's the one I was looking for, thanks.. just couldn't remember the name. | 03:49 |
| knoppies | whiteshadow, is the error from GRUB or the cd-rom? | 03:49 |
| yondering | need to disable the 'wobble' keys on this mouse. =/ | 03:49 |
| maco | pksadiq: its a matter of what cpu instructions intel added at what point in history. cmov was added in i686, so UnderSampled probably has a i586 (which would be quite old) or a Via or some brand of thin client (which simply stuck with the old architecture very long) | 03:50 |
| pksadiq | LinuxNoob: if you use Only ubuntu for at least a week, M$ windows will look bad, especailly the scrolling techniques and ....... of ubuntu | 03:50 |
| fool_ | LinuxNoob: also try virtualbox | 03:50 |
| fool_ | does anyone know how to fix problem where CUPS printers are not shown in the print dialog (evince, firefox, etc...) ? | 03:50 |
| pksadiq | maco: is there something special with the naming/ | 03:50 |
| whiteshadow | knoppies: i'm not using grub, i used univeral usb installer | 03:50 |
| knoppies | LinuxNoob, you could use something like virtualbox to run windows (assuming your hardware is sufficient), or use WINE which enables you to run some windows apps on linux. | 03:50 |
| LinuxNoob | ive got xp,vista,7 cd's i dont need a vm | 03:50 |
| father_longcat | >switch to ubunt | 03:51 |
| father_longcat | >2 years later, visit windows 7 | 03:51 |
| LinuxNoob | i just am for lack of better quote, jumping in to linux and programming in general without knowhing how to swim | 03:51 |
| father_longcat | >cant find drivers for computer | 03:51 |
| father_longcat | lol | 03:51 |
| LinuxNoob | ive got an asus gaming labtop, it can run lots of stuff :D | 03:51 |
| knoppies | whiteshadow, is the .iso supported by universal USB installer? | 03:51 |
| pksadiq | LinuxNoob: genuine? | 03:51 |
| father_longcat | linuxnoob: no offense to anyone here but the best OS for gaming is Win7 unless you love to mess with WINE | 03:52 |
| LinuxNoob | yeah my stuff is legit :) | 03:52 |
| brandon420 | whats the best media player for a large volume of music? (flac) | 03:52 |
| whiteshadow | knoppies: yeah, it is supported, otherwise it wouldn't find the iso, i had trouble with it for a bit cuz i was selecting a desktop version when i had the server iso | 03:52 |
| rww | father_longcat: #ubuntu is for Ubuntu technical support. Your opinions on Ubuntu vs. Windows 7 are not technical support. | 03:52 |
| father_longcat | yes. | 03:52 |
| LinuxNoob | im goin to school to be a CNT, i know windows, just never messed with linux | 03:52 |
| knoppies | LinuxNoob, you could use your CDs to install the OS on a VM. You could also duel boot the two. Many people (including myself) do that. | 03:52 |
| father_longcat | but neither is stating "I have an asus laptop" | 03:52 |
| ultrabizweb2 | Have to agree with father ubuntu lts for servers FTW... | 03:53 |
| LinuxNoob | and ill need this for later on, when i do servers, as alot use UNIX | 03:53 |
| ProfessorBacon | cnt? | 03:53 |
| father_longcat | ^ | 03:53 |
| maco | pksadiq: um... 586 is newer than 386 nd 686 is newer than both? i mean...i think this corresponds to pre-pentium days | 03:53 |
| father_longcat | lts is great for servers | 03:53 |
| fool_ | brandon420: mpd | 03:53 |
| UnderSampled | maco: Undersampled has a AMD-K6(tm)-2/300 | 03:53 |
| fool_ | brandon420: or vlc :) | 03:53 |
| whiteshadow | knoppies: http://ohioloco.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1550317&highlight=mount+cd-rom i think i'm supposed mount my cd-rom as the usb, but i can't seem to understand those directions, sort of linux noob | 03:53 |

| LinuxNoob | i plan on getting my CCNA | 03:53 |
| brandon420 | =/ | 03:53 |
| ProfessorBacon | if you have a computer that still runs, it is 686 class | 03:53 |
| pksadiq | maco: then why the numbering is in the reverse order? any ideas? | 03:53 |
| father_longcat | descending order of set | 03:53 |
| father_longcat | I mean | 03:53 |
| brandon420 | fool_, there isnt anything like foobar, or winamp | 03:53 |
| brandon420 | ? | 03:53 |
| father_longcat | it went from 386 to 586 | 03:54 |
| father_longcat | and then to 686 | 03:54 |
| ActionParsnip | pksadiq: 386 is the old 8082 CPUs. 686 includes Pentium 3 CPUs and higher (from what I remember) | 03:54 |
| ultrabizweb2 | Used to run centos now run lts on just about everything. | 03:54 |
| LinuxNoob | question guys, i tried to make a windows batch file(for cmd) and he couldnt open it | 03:54 |
| father_longcat | any date when 11.04 is releasing? | 03:54 |
| pksadiq | the naming is a bit confusing | 03:54 |
| fool_ | brandon420: there are many players, you just have to try them all | 03:54 |

| ubottu | father_longcat: A schedule of Natty Narwhal (11.04) release milestones can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NattyReleaseSchedule | 03:54 |
| UnderSampled | father_longcat: april | 03:54 |
| maco | UnderSampled: k6-2 is a 586. amd apparently kept it for a very long time | 03:54 |
| lucky711x | father_longcat, april 2011 | 03:54 |
| father_longcat | I mean the real release date, not beta | 03:54 |
| pksadiq | LinuxNoob: define he | 03:54 |
| fool_ | brandon420: personally i use vlc/mpd | 03:54 |
| maco | UnderSampled: even some thin clients being manufactured *now* are still 586. maybe its a cheaper architecture to produce *shrug* | 03:54 |
| ActionParsnip | LinuxNoob: you will need notepad++ to thn resave it as Linux uses different CR characters to Linux | 03:55 |
| LinuxNoob | windows user | 03:55 |
| father_longcat | thanks | 03:55 |
| LinuxNoob | gotcha | 03:55 |
| rww | father_longcat: the wiki schedule page has the release date also. | 03:55 |
| father_longcat | thank you again. | 03:55 |
| LinuxNoob | i had to explain it to him over msnger | 03:55 |
| === bencahill is now known as bencahill_ | ||
| UnderSampled | father_longcat: by definition, 11.04 is april 2011. if it was in may, it'd be 11.05 | 03:55 |
| maco | UnderSampled: the k6 claimed to be a 686 but it actually wasnt fully compliant with the 686 spec | 03:55 |
| LinuxNoob | he wanted a prank he could do to his moms computer, so i wrote him one | 03:55 |
| brandon420 | fool_, i have over 11k songs, i need something that will organize it all for me, lol. i know vlc doesnt do that, not sure about mpd, but imma give it a try | 03:55 |

| xangua | ljsoftnet: yes | 03:56 |
| lucky711x | <year>.<month> | 03:56 |
| knoppies | whiteshadow, I can suggest using a tool which mounts the drive using GRUB legacy and then trying to follow what that guy said in the forum post. | 03:56 |
| MrUnagi | anyone know why rsync -r --delete doesn't work within a script? | 03:56 |
| fool_ | brandon420: mpd takes a little to set up, but once it runs it's very nice :) | 03:56 |
| pksadiq | brandon420: what about mplayer or rhythm box? | 03:56 |
| rewineland | okay which ftp program is better filezillia or vsftpd | 03:56 |
| lucky711x | haha sorry ive got dyslexia | 03:56 |
| ljsoftnet | xangua how about gtk themes? | 03:56 |
| UnderSampled | maco: I'm guessing that it doesn't matter, because I'm burning 10.04 anyway | 03:56 |
| fool_ | brandon420: my ~/music is about 80gb as of now :) | 03:56 |
| xangua | ljsoftnet: yes | 03:56 |
| ultrabizweb2 | If your going for CCNA take a look at vyatta and tell your instructor about that and watch his face drop lol. | 03:56 |
| brandon420 | mine is >250gb | 03:56 |
| knoppies | rewineland, I use nautilus for some basic ftp, but its probably not what you are looking for. | 03:56 |
| ljsoftnet | xangua ah thanks man | 03:56 |
| father_longcat | good question fool_: how much of it is legal? | 03:56 |
| whiteshadow | knoppies: sure, i don't wanna waste anymore time installing this thing, what's the other good installer, unetbootin? | 03:56 |
| pksadiq | fool_: my whole hard disk is ~80 GB :O | 03:56 |
| fool_ | father_longcat: not much | 03:57 |
| brandon420 | pksadiq, rhythm box crashes when i try to add that much music at once. and mplayer is about like vlc | 03:57 |
| rewineland | i am just looking for control someusers and there access to files | 03:57 |
| fool_ | father_longcat: define legal :) | 03:57 |
| father_longcat | ~/music/ is 507 GB | 03:57 |

| brandon420 | father_longcat, what media player you use? | 03:57 |
| knoppies | whiteshadow, no, I used the multi-iso thing from pendrivelinux, I forget what its called, Let me find it for you. You will have to edit the menu.lst, but otherwise it should work. | 03:57 |
| ActionParsnip | brandon420: tried deabbeef? | 03:57 |
| father_longcat | MPC-HC | 03:57 |
| pksadiq | fool_: size is not a matter, how much of that do you hear? | 03:58 |
| ActionParsnip | deadbeef sorry | 03:58 |
| knoppies | whiteshadow, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/boot-multiple-iso-from-usb-multiboot-usb/ | 03:58 |
| whiteshadow | knoppies: gonna give that a shot, be back in 5 | 03:58 |
| knoppies | whiteshadow, I suggest you install some small .iso (other than your server one, we will do that manually) then copy your server.iso onto the root of the flash drive. Then we will need to edit the menu.lst | 03:59 |
| brandon420 | ActionParsnip, imma try that now | 03:59 |
| father_longcat | one day.... | 03:59 |
| brandon420 | seens kegut' | 03:59 |
| brandon420 | legit | 03:59 |
| father_longcat | we will invent the self-extracting TARball | 03:59 |
| ultrabizweb2 | Pendrive is good stuff | 03:59 |
| knoppies | whiteshadow, 64 or 32bit? Because that doesn't seem to have the 64bit under the options, but I think you can use it anyway. | 04:00 |
| KB1JWQ | knoppies: Does your system support 64 bits? | 04:00 |
| brandon420 | WHYYYYYYY | 04:01 |
| rewineland | so no ideas on a good ftp server | 04:01 |
| brandon420 | must all the good shit be a bitch to install?! | 04:01 |
| knoppies | KB1JWQ, yes it does, Im talking about a tool that puts .iso files onto a USB flash drive. | 04:01 |
| brandon420 | rewineland, ubuntu server comes with one | 04:01 |
| KB1JWQ | For the tool itself, shouldn't matter. | 04:01 |
| m_fulder | can I somehow run .sh files by doubleclicking on them? | 04:01 |
| ultrabizweb2 | Proftpd for the win. | 04:01 |
| ActionParsnip | brandon420: keep it family friendly please | 04:01 |
| lahwran | m_fulder: set them executable | 04:01 |
| rewineland | yes but i am looking for easy setup | 04:01 |
| ActionParsnip | ultrabizweb2: openssh-server is a more secure method ;) | 04:02 |
| knoppies | m_fulder, yes, in gnome I can. You need to set them as executable first. chmod u+x <filename> | 04:02 |
| lahwran | !permissions | m_fulder | 04:02 |

| sacarlson | rewineland: nothing much easier than apt-get install openssh-server | 04:03 |
| rewineland | I have that already but I want multipl users that will not be on my system | 04:03 |
| drue_ | pksadiq, Thanks! | 04:03 |
| m_fulder | I've already set my permission to +x but still I can't run it ... I mean making it executable it only shows me a window where I can choose to edit my script run in terminal etc... but while I choose run in terminal nothing happends :S @ lahwran & knoppies | 04:03 |

| ultrabizweb2 | Does use more ram for gui though. | 04:04 |
| ActionParsnip | ultrabizweb2: so why run an ftp server as well as sftp? | 04:04 |
| knoppies | m_fulder, does your script have the #!/bin/bash (I think its called a shabang or something) | 04:04 |
| sacarlson | rewineland: well you said you wanted something that needed no account, so maybe ssh wouldn't be as easy for that | 04:04 |
| pksadiq | m_fulder: you might have to change the first line , what is it now #! .......? | 04:04 |
| m_fulder | knoppies, yes it has | 04:04 |
| ultrabizweb2 | For legacy support | 04:04 |
| m_fulder | pksadiq, its #!/bin/bash | 04:05 |
| ultrabizweb2 | Most of the time I use scp | 04:05 |
| brandon420 | yeahhh | 04:05 |
| ultrabizweb2 | I have a developer or 2 that uses it. | 04:05 |
| brandon420 | deadbeef is 100% legit | 04:05 |
| knoppies | m_fulder, then Im not sure what your issue is then. Is it possible that the script works its just so quick you dont see the terminal?? | 04:05 |
| pksadiq | m_fulder: might be you need to change it to #!/bin/terminal -e or what ever your terminals path is and try double click | 04:06 |

| fool_ | knoppies: it's evince/firefox/otherbrowsers/ that does not show the printers in the print dialog | 04:09 |
| fool_ | very weird | 04:09 |
| ActionParsnip | brandon420: it uses a heck of a lot les resources too. it was considered for lubuntu | 04:09 |
| m_fulder | pksadiq, what do you mean my path to the terminal :P | 04:09 |
| jrib | virtus: you're doing it wrong | 04:10 |
| brandon420 | JoseeAntonioR, it seems that your signed in somewhere else.... | 04:10 |
| voidmage | I have an issue with notify-osd. When I have a wine virtual desktop on a separate workspace, it suppresses notification bubbles from coming up as if it's a full screen app. | 04:10 |
| virtus | jrib: Of course I am. | 04:10 |
| virtus | Either tell me 'how' or, don't adress me. | 04:10 |
| virtus | Please. | 04:10 |
| JoseeAntonioR | brandon420 No. | 04:10 |
| jrib | virtus: start from the beginning. Why do you think you need this version of glib? | 04:10 |
| brandon420 | ActionParsnip, thats just a plus =) quad core baybee | 04:10 |
| virtus | jrib: For screem. -- A editor. | 04:10 |
| ActionParsnip | brandon420: i dont follow | 04:10 |
| virtus | Says 'You need Glib 2.5 or higher' when compiling. | 04:10 |
| virtus | So, naturally. I try apt-get, then synaptic | 04:10 |
| brandon420 | JoseeAntonioR, pidgin doesnt lie. try signing in with www.meebo.com sometimes meebo will kick where ever you are signed in at. | 04:11 |
| maco | virtus: screen isn't an editor, but moving on... glib-2.0 is just the package *name*. the version is 2.26 | 04:11 |
| father_longcat | ^doing something horribly wrong | 04:11 |
| virtus | Nothing. Go to the site, highest glib there is 2.27 -- I go to the GTK+ part- | 04:11 |
| pksadiq | m_fulder: try which terminal command , you might see the path | 04:11 |
| virtus | Screem. Learn to read. | 04:11 |
| brandon420 | ActionParsnip, lol, means im not worried about using resources, i have more then enough | 04:11 |
| voidmage | the xwininfo and xprop for my wine desktop are at http://pastebin.com/YZCzAVFJ if anyone knows what to look for | 04:11 |
| ultrabizweb2 | Rember editing apt sources can be your friend. | 04:11 |
| LinuxNoob | do they make a app in the ubuntu software center thats like "ubuntu for dummies" or "so easy a kindergardener can do it" | 04:11 |
| ActionParsnip | brandon420: ahhh i see, i have spare but always use lightweight stuff so the OS is snappier | 04:11 |
| JoseeAntonioR | brandon420 I have already tried, and it works normally. | 04:12 |
| brandon420 | hmmmmsss | 04:12 |
| brandon420 | JoseeAntonioR, you try it with empthy? | 04:12 |
| Tulio | brandon420: You around here breda? | 04:12 |
| ultrabizweb2 | Ubuntu is the easiest. | 04:12 |
| virtus | maco: You're saying there is no 2.5? 'Cause, this is becoming stupid. | 04:12 |
| brandon420 | Tulio, sup mane | 04:12 |
| ActionParsnip | just how i roll, its not right or wrong, just my bag :) | 04:12 |
| whiteshadow | knoppies: LOL, well, i didn't even bother using the multiboot thing cuz i'm super lazy, and decided to just drop the .iso onto the root of the usb (after i had formatted it with universal usb inst) and followed those directions, it works :) | 04:12 |
| duckwars | what is the file I need to copy to make a new user's shell experience like my original users? (I mean the new user has no tab completion and such) | 04:12 |
| JoseeAntonioR | brandon420 Empathy doesn't shows my contact list. | 04:12 |
| whiteshadow | knoppies: not done with the install though, i'll let you know | 04:12 |
| Tulio | Mane? How did ya called me? | 04:13 |
| AbhijiT | virtus, why dont you just dwonload from their website? | 04:13 |
| voidmage | or is the fullscreen flag necessary for the virtual desktop to go overtop of gnome-panel? | 04:13 |
| voidmage | anyone? | 04:13 |
| virtus | AbhijiT: Again. If you would read - Highest on their site is 2.27 | 04:13 |
| knoppies | whiteshadow, awesome. Im glad you are winning. | 04:13 |
| brandon420 | JoseeAntonioR, it seems like there is something wrong with your account, maybe try making a new one to test it with? that would let you know if it is your account, or client. | 04:13 |
| maco | virtus: im saying 2.26 is WAY NEWER than 2.5 so should be dandy | 04:13 |
| virtus | configure: error: | 04:13 |
| virtus | *** GLIB 2.5.6 or better is required. The latest version of | 04:13 |

| AbhijiT | virtus, what is this http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/glib/2.25/ | 04:13 |
| fool_ | duckwars: ~/.bashrc | 04:13 |
| jrib | virtus: you need -dev packages to compile things | 04:13 |
| duckwars | fool_: thank you | 04:14 |
| fool_ | duckwars: as well as many other ~/.dotfiles | 04:14 |
| virtus | jrib: Why? That sounds very inconvenient | 04:14 |
| AbhijiT | virtus, what is this http://ftp.se.debian.org/pub/gnome/sources/glib/2.5/ | 04:14 |
| jrib | virtus: erm, because users do not usually need to compile things | 04:14 |
| maco | virtus: because -dev packages have headers | 04:14 |
| brandon420 | =( my eq only goes down to 55hz | 04:14 |
| JoseeAntonioR | brandon420 I use MSN Messenger, and I have two accounts. The two of them have the same issue. | 04:14 |
| maco | virtus: you cant compile against binaries | 04:14 |
| virtus | Well. I have both. | 04:14 |
| jrib | virtus: what do you have exactly? | 04:14 |
| ultrabizweb2 | apt-get install build-essentails I think? | 04:14 |
| virtus | libglib2.0-dev is already the newest version. | 04:15 |
| ActionParsnip | virtus: it tells the compiler and libraries how to talk to the binarys when they run, its pretty inconvenient though, especially when compiling huge things like X or gnome | 04:15 |
| brandon420 | JoseeAntonioR, have you tried reinstalling pidgin? | 04:15 |
| AbhijiT | virtus, answer me? | 04:15 |
| jrib | virtus: then tell your configure script to stop being silly? | 04:15 |
| xangua | JoseeAntonioR: don't login in the online client | 04:15 |
| virtus | AbhijiT: Shh. I'm dealing with people actually helping me. | 04:15 |
| AbhijiT | jrib, i gave him location to download 2.5 | 04:15 |
| xangua | JoseeAntonioR: update pidgin | 04:15 |
| === Newa2 is now known as NewaWrk | ||
| ActionParsnip | JoseeAntonioR: there's a pidgin developers ppa with a later version | 04:15 |
| virtus | jrib: Wish I could. 'Tis bein' very rude. | 04:15 |
| jrib | AbhijiT: he'll just break things if he starts compiling glib :/ | 04:15 |
| JoseeAntonioR | brandon420 When I reinstalled it, the issue was solved. Now I have reinstalled two times and nothing. | 04:15 |
| AbhijiT | hmm :/ | 04:16 |
| brandon420 | JoseeAntonioR, 1 sec. i am going to try something on my end. it may be msn, it messes up alot on me. | 04:16 |

| ActionParsnip | voidmage: have you asked in #winehq | 04:17 |

| Ganymede | Hello. I'm trying to print an order confirmation in Firefox to a PDF so I can email it. However, it comes out on two pages. I tried setting the scale to 50% or 75% but when I printed to effect, there was no visible change on the output PDF; it was still two pages. Please advise on how I can fit it into one page. | 04:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Ganymede: copy the text and paste to a file, then you can resize / remove unwanted fluff etc | 04:35 |

| Ganymede | devdrinker, That seems nontrivial...I don't think Adobe Reader has the capability of doing that, except if you fit two pages per page of printout, in which case, the text will be much smaller than it needs to be so it will be suboptimal. | 04:38 |

| qreezy | Hi, I'm having a problem with Ubuntu 10.10. I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 GFX Card with the latest drivers. I use Google Chrome, and the problem is that I experience a lot of lag viewing videos in youtube, skipping every couple of seconds. I also experience lag watching offline videos usually after browsing in google chrome, and this still persists even after I close all memory leaking instances (ha). Anyone have any idea what' | 05:06 |
| qreezy | s wrong and how to fix this? Thanks | 05:06 |
| rww | Nisstyre: because you're not going to be online 24/7 to offer support when it breaks things, and we're going to tell them to go away because they set a root password, which isn't supported here. | 05:06 |
| shcherbak | AbhijiT: gui way? let me think | 05:06 |
| akshatj | jenia: no idea about what GLX means, try #compiz | 05:06 |

| qreezy | im watching this video in youtube and my cpu resources are going up to 70% and 70%, and memory is only .5gb out of 4 | 05:15 |
| xgt001 | if it works fine then i think u should revert back the drivers | 05:15 |
| dospod | <Enter> what keys are these | 05:15 |
| qreezy | also... my hardware on another machine of mine is failing, lag on the OS as well (music machine) | 05:15 |
| qreezy | could it be dusty air or something? what the hell... lol | 05:15 |
| philip__ | qreezy - specs? | 05:15 |
| xgt001 | no no | 05:15 |
| xgt001 | nvidia drivers were always seems to be buggy | 05:16 |

| father_longcat | try using crtl+f | 05:16 |
| Nisstyre | Dead_Storage, make it | 05:16 |
| katphive | Dead_Storage: You need to WRITE one, otherwise it uses compiled-in defaults. | 05:16 |
| * philip__ has Nvidia 173 drivers on his Nvidia geforce FX 5200 AGP8x 256Mb card. | 05:16 | |
| father_longcat | or make it | 05:16 |
| * father_longcat has nvidia 173 drivers on his nvidia quadro fx1500 256mb | 05:17 | |
| father_longcat | too bad it SUCKS | 05:17 |
| xgt001 | forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=190837 ... similar issue i guess | 05:17 |
| Loshki | qreezy: well, funnily enough, dusty air can clog fans and cause overheating, which might manifest as 'lag'... | 05:17 |

| father_longcat | what's up mylesman | 05:17 |
| Dead_Storage | katphive, I have mad it, mine is VERY customized and i dont want to redo it, My custom one is still there i just cant find the file | 05:17 |
| philip__ | Try using Lubuntu qreezy. | 05:17 |
| xgt001 | i suggest not to use nvidia official drivers for ubuntu .... | 05:17 |
| philip__ | Lightweight. | 05:17 |
| qreezy | ok xgt001 | 05:18 |
| katphive | Dead_Storage: Could always do a search for '.conkyrc' | 05:18 |
| qreezy | thank xgt001 | 05:18 |
| Nisstyre | xgt001, are you high or something? | 05:18 |
| philip__ | Gnome is getting heavy I ese. | 05:18 |
| philip__ | see* | 05:18 |
| Nisstyre | the open source drivers are terrible | 05:18 |
| xgt001 | qreezy... that should be fairly powerful to run | 05:18 |
| qreezy | hmm | 05:18 |
| Dead_Storage | i have it says no files found | 05:18 |
| father_longcat | you have to be full retard to not use proprietary drivers | 05:18 |
| xgt001 | Nissty... lol can u elaborate??? | 05:18 |
| father_longcat | dat 3D/openGL support | 05:18 |
| uranus_gas_giant | i did a 'sudo apt-get build-dep <mynvidiadriver>' before I installed it and it built a kernel module installled it and I even get a fullscreen nvidia logo | 05:18 |
| MylesMan | father i installed the nvidia96 pkg and now the glx kernel module wont init | 05:18 |
| Nisstyre | nouveau sucks | 05:18 |
| qreezy | i DO have cpu spikes on my music machine too... but i mean could the air really be THAT bad? | 05:18 |
| katphive | xgt001: Why NOT use the official drivers, exactly? The only way I can get my VAIO to not vomit on me is to use the proprietary drivers. | 05:18 |
| Dead_Storage | but it has to be somewhere or my conky wouldnt still exist | 05:18 |
| father_longcat | piss sakes.... slow down | 05:19 |
| rww | father_longcat: Your attitude is not appropriate for this channel. | 05:19 |
| father_longcat | will I be assimilated? | 05:19 |
| katphive | father_longcat: Assistance is futile. | 05:19 |
| philip__ | qreezy it could also be due to GNOME. | 05:19 |
| thorbj0rn | Dead_Storage: locate conkyrc | 05:19 |
| qreezy | its so strange that a youtube video uses 70% of my cpu resources... what is that? | 05:19 |
| * father_longcat is totally registerring wearetheb.org | 05:19 | |
| ActionParsnip | qreezy: in all browsers/ | 05:20 |
| philip__ | qreezy, That's normal that's flash being gay. | 05:20 |
| qreezy | i was considering that too philip_, which DE do you recommend? KDE? | 05:20 |
| katphive | GRUB help needed, btw. | 05:20 |
| ActionParsnip | qreezy: `are you using 64bit OS? | 05:20 |
| rww | philip__: Don't use "gay" as a pejorative. | 05:20 |
| qreezy | 32bit ActionParsnip | 05:20 |
| philip__ | Sorry about that. | 05:20 |
| qreezy | philip_, flash tends to crash a lot in google chrome | 05:20 |
| father_longcat | use such terms as homosexual, or "rosie o'donnel | 05:20 |
| philip__ | I use Chrome in LUbuntu | 05:20 |
| qreezy | oh, Lubuntu is a dekstop environment | 05:20 |
| ActionParsnip | qreezy: in all browsers? | 05:20 |
| father_longcat | I prefer firefox. | 05:20 |
| qreezy | haven't tried ActionParsnip | 05:20 |
| qreezy | i'll try now | 05:20 |
| ActionParsnip | qreezy: lubuntu is a distro, lxde is the DE | 05:20 |
| xgt001 | because offlate too many are complaining that there systems are behaving badly after updating the nvidia drivers... i dono which exact models suffer but thats an issue of late in many cases | 05:21 |
| Bop | anyone here know how to generate ssh host keys on a mounted filesystem ? | 05:21 |
| Dead_Storage | thorbj0rn, I know where conkyrc is but that is not mine that is the "default" i have a conky.rc but i cant find it but conky is still running off it so its somewhere | 05:21 |
| Bop | please , this is important :s | 05:21 |
| qreezy | can i use lxde in ubuntu? | 05:21 |
| philip__ | Yes you can. | 05:21 |
| philip__ | I'm using it right now. | 05:21 |
| MylesMan | would reinstalling the driver work | 05:21 |
| thorbj0rn | Dead_Storage: so use "locate conky" and look for that file.. | 05:21 |
| ActionParsnip | qreezy: install lxde, log off, click your name, select lxde at the bottom of the screen then logo n | 05:21 |
| Ivis | Help, sound controler from left corner disapeir | 05:21 |
| thorbj0rn | if it is somewhere, it will be listed. | 05:22 |
| maco | qreezy: sure. in fact there's an ubuntu derivative called Lubuntu that defaults to just that | 05:22 |
| xgt001 | and my friend could nt even start the x windows server after he updated his nvidia driver | 05:22 |
| ActionParsnip | !sound | Ivis | 05:22 |
| ubottu | Ivis: 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. | 05:22 |
| philip__ | Hey qreezy check your PM I sent you a Link for Lubuntu | 05:22 |
| father_longcat | it's simple: ATI | 05:22 |
| qreezy | i'm monitoring resources with the ubuntu gui and running firefox. i went to a website and both cpus spiked to around 40% usage | 05:22 |
| father_longcat | just kidding | 05:22 |
| philip__ | I use it on my 6 yr old PC. | 05:22 |
| ActionParsnip | philip__: if s/he install lxde then s/he can use the ligh OS | 05:22 |
| Ivis | sound is working just control disapeir | 05:22 |
| philip__ | That works too. | 05:22 |
| shcherbak | !resetpanel | Ivis | 05:22 |
| ubottu | Ivis: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 05:22 |
| philip__ | But I prefer to use the main Downloadable version IMO | 05:23 |
| Loshki | qreezy: If you were in a lumberyard maybe I'd worry. But realistically, it's probably something else. | 05:23 |
| Arty | Hi ALL. | 05:23 |
| philip__ | Hello there arty. | 05:23 |
| xgt001 | father_longcat: ati doesnt seem to have an issue ... i havnt seen/heard of issues with ati offlate | 05:23 |
| father_longcat | yeah. | 05:23 |
| sandGorgon | does anybody know how to share a screen session ? I am doing a code merge that different people need to see | 05:24 |
| father_longcat | if I can get off my *** and find money, I'll buy a 5770 | 05:24 |
| Arty | I got 5770 | 05:24 |
| pragma_ | get off your three stars? | 05:24 |
| sacarlson | Bop: you can try this but there might be easier ways with a gui someplace http://pkeck.myweb.uga.edu/ssh/ | 05:24 |
| qreezy | do the cpu spikes mean anything? or is the ubuntu gui resource monitor just slow? | 05:24 |
| Arty | It not bad. | 05:24 |
| father_longcat | arty: worth it? | 05:24 |
| xgt001 | and rite now i am online using 11.04 natty alpha 1... it has got all the nvidia/ati/intel video drivers and is pretty good | 05:25 |
| philip__ | Why does people say VIA Chipsets suck on Linux? | 05:25 |
| philip__ | My machine is using a VIA Chipset and I have no issue. | 05:25 |
| Nisstyre | xgt001, the open source nvidia driver is great. If you never plan on doing anything at all with your hardware (3D for example) | 05:25 |
| Nisstyre | otherwise it's a pos | 05:25 |
| Ivis | shcherbak, Oh how can you not love the linux, support is wonderful, thanks again :) | 05:25 |
| father_longcat | phillip: grow a pair and buy a real chipset | 05:25 |
| uranus_gas_giant | I have an entire via mainboard and have no issues | 05:25 |
| ActionParsnip | philip__: because 9 out of 10 times you need to form an xorg.conf file and often they either don't do 3D or do it badly | 05:25 |
| xgt001 | nisstyre ... yeah .. i was referring to official nvidia drivers | 05:25 |
| thorbj0rn | VIA killed mah pa! | 05:26 |
| Arty | < 190$ | 05:26 |
| Nisstyre | xgt001, those are closed source | 05:26 |
| sacarlson | philip__: I had a via sound card that made sound but never recorded, I worked for weeks to find a solution gave up get a new card, thumbs down for me and via chips | 05:26 |
| philip__ | I haven't had a single problem with that on my end. | 05:26 |
| hsz | 4545415 | 05:26 |
| Ivis | You know what i hate? When people ask what distr and you answer - "Ubuntu" they start laughing and saying that you are noob | 05:26 |
| philip__ | Realtech/via here. | 05:26 |
| brandon420 | what happened to the compiz cube deformation thing in the compiz config manager? | 05:26 |
| Ivis | it's stupid | 05:26 |
| Loshki | Bop: might be easier to just remove then reinstall openssh | 05:26 |
| qreezy | okay, thanks guys, my videos seem to be running well in firefox now. but i wonder why offline video in any media player still lags even after closing all instances of google chrome? don't the memory leaks clear up after the processes are killed? | 05:27 |
| shcherbak | Ivis: nice, thanks. | 05:27 |
| xgt001 | just google "nvidia issue 10.10" and u will get dozens in the ubuntu forum | 05:27 |
| Arty | I try to play angrybirds on my ubuntu labtop it's not work | 05:27 |
| Bop | Loshki, i know that , but i dont have the filesystem mounted | 05:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Ivis: let them, it changes nothing | 05:27 |
| Bop | Loshki, its on rescue mode on /mnt | 05:27 |
| Nisstyre | xgt001, I have no problems with the latest nvidia drivers | 05:27 |
| thorbj0rn | Ivis: tell them you run Suicide Linux on a headless terminal. | 05:27 |
| Nisstyre | must be a problem with gnome or something | 05:27 |
| Ivis | :D | 05:27 |
| Nisstyre | or the default xorg configuration | 05:27 |
| xgt001 | nisstyre : are u using 10.10 | 05:28 |
| shcherbak | Ivis: That distro thing is partly true... | 05:28 |
| Nisstyre | xgt001, I'm on Arch | 05:28 |
| uranus_gas_giant | 'sudo nvidia xconfig' | 05:28 |
| thorbj0rn | Ivis: http://qntm.org/suicide | 05:28 |
| zerokl | Hello. Does anyone speak Russian? | 05:28 |
| Nisstyre | nvidia 260.19.36-1 | 05:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Ivis: or find a really obscure distro like Chakra | 05:28 |
| xgt001 | Nisstyre: Arch is rpm based i guessed | 05:28 |
| rww | zerokl: /join #ubuntu-ru | 05:28 |
| Nisstyre | xgt001, no | 05:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Ivis: they'll be all like "huh?" | 05:28 |
| zerokl | rww Thank you :) | 05:29 |
| Ivis | thorbj0rn, ohh :D:D | 05:29 |
| xgt001 | Nisstyre: debian????!!!! | 05:29 |
| Nisstyre | xgt001, it's similar to crux | 05:29 |
| rww | xgt001: Arch uses neither .deb nor .rpm for packages. It has its own thing. | 05:29 |
| shcherbak | thorbj0rn: sl | 05:29 |
| Nisstyre | rww, it uses the basic package format, .pkg.tar.xz | 05:30 |
| Nisstyre | just compressed archives | 05:30 |
| xgt001 | rww: cooool i gotta try that.. i thought all used either rpm or deb | 05:30 |
| Nisstyre | anyway | 05:30 |
| Ivis | i mean i have installed gentoo in terminal mode, arch linux etc... but i choose ubuntu for many reasons and becouse it's easy to use doesn't mean that you are end-user or else... :D | 05:30 |
| Loshki | Bop: from http://www.symantec.com/connect/articles/ssh-host-key-protection: ssh-keygen -t rsa /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key # ssh-keygen -t dsa /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key # ssh-keygen -t rsa1 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key | 05:30 |
| Nisstyre | the problem isn't with the nvidia drivers | 05:30 |
| katphive | Nisstyre: I use Arch fairly extensively. Great system to tinker with, for one. | 05:30 |
| Nisstyre | it's with ubuntu | 05:30 |
| thorbj0rn | Nisstyre: Arch(ives) ? | 05:30 |
| thorbj0rn | who would ahve thought | 05:31 |
| pragma_ | rww: doesn't it use burritos? | 05:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Ivis: totally, gentoo teaches a LOT | 05:31 |

| tomoyuki28jp | On 10.04 server, sudo command does not require password. I've tried to put PASSWD:ALL in /etc/sudoers, but no difference. How can I check it to require sudo password? | 05:31 |
| Ivis | ActionParsnip, after painfull couple day reading manual i finally start understand how kernel works and so on... | 05:32 |
| tomoyuki28jp | s/check/change/ | 05:32 |
| Loshki | pragma_: burritos? | 05:32 |
| rww | tomoyuki28jp: by default, sudo doesn't ask for your password if you've supplied it within the last N minutes (I forget how many, maybe 10). | 05:32 |
| Nisstyre | tomoyuki28jp, I thought the default was to require a password? Also, I hope you're not editing the sudoers file directly | 05:32 |

| xgt001 | but Ubuntu is the distro which beats even windows when it comes to user friendliness and consistency | 05:32 |
| ActionParsnip | xgt001: beats how? | 05:32 |
| katphive | Yeah, I'd question that statement. | 05:33 |

| zerokl | People tell me please I want to start using ubuntu how to install a better version of me? | 05:34 |
| xgt001 | but Ubuntu suited me the most | 05:34 |
| Ivis | And what's is the greatest part of all this - community i always liked linux people they are different i think you know what im saying :) | 05:34 |
| Arty | ubuntu is the best | 05:34 |

| Bop | Loshki, nevermind , i've managed to install a telnet server , in case sshd fails | 05:39 |
| sacarlson | Bop: so your in rescue mode on the server side? what is it you want to acomplish? what's in /mnt ? | 05:39 |

| katphive | zerokl: What versions are you considering? | 05:40 |
| qreezy | is google chrome better than firefox? | 05:40 |
| sacarlson | Bop: I guess you could turn keys off in ssh also if it's the server side | 05:40 |

| thorbj0rn | zerokl: " cat /etc/lsb-release " to see your version info | 05:41 |

After I shutdown, Ubuntu will switch off my wifi card so that when I turn the netbook on again I need to go into the bios to enable the wifi card again. Is there a way to prevent Ubuntu from not turning off the wifi card on shutdown? | 05:43 |
| Arty | Opera turbo not fast for me | 05:43 |
| ActionParsnip | qreezy: chromium also precaches DNS while you read, making it faster there | 05:43 |
| katphive | dschuett: What about it are you questioning? | 05:43 |
| qreezy | thanks everyone for the help, gotta run! :) | 05:43 |
| thorbj0rn | dschuett: looks like google's dns server | 05:43 |
| Arty | It's connect to Opera server before load web page | 05:43 |
| xgt001 | xangua: i am going offtopic because i am learning way more stuff here :-D.... but chromium was in ubuntu repos by default (not chrome)so i tried tat | 05:43 |
| dschuett | katphive: if i do a nslookup through googles public dns it still resolves my INTERNAL hosts even after flushing dns | 05:43 |
| katphive | dschuett: Some routers intercept DNS requests if they look like they're destined for LAN hosts. | 05:44 |
| dschuett | thorbj0rn ^^ | 05:44 |
| dschuett | katphive: even ubuntu running bind? | 05:44 |
| sacarlson | rad_sci_guy: you might be able to turn it on with rfkill command, if so then you might add that in a script at boot | 05:45 |
| ActionParsnip | dschuett: you can run a local dns service on the system like dnsmasq and make dns resolution take 0ms rather than 50ms or so | 05:45 |
| dschuett | katphive i am using an ubuntu server box with two nics as my router which is running iptables and bind/dhcp | 05:45 |
| katphive | dschuett: Depends on its configuration, I think. Google would reject a request for a host that's not an FQDN or something similar. | 05:45 |
| brandon420 | how can i install the compiz "extra plugin" package? | 05:46 |
| katphive | dschuett: Also, if the system's running BIND, it's going to try using its own internal resolver FIRST - which means that BIND is going to resolve your host before it ever kicks it out to Google. | 05:46 |
| dschuett | katphive: yeah, i know it isn't actually google that is resolving it...i just wish i knew HOW it was doing it.. | 05:46 |
| spikku | How bad is this? sudo apt-get autoremove python | 05:46 |
| katphive | dschuett: Check your /etc/resolv.conf | 05:46 |
| elko_guy | hello | 05:46 |
| katphive | dschuett: I know that nslookup is SUPPOSED to use the specified server for DNS resolution, but who knows. | 05:46 |
| ActionParsnip | spikku: VERY | 05:47 |
| ActionParsnip | katphive: try: dig www.yahoo.com | 05:47 |
| xgt001 | brandon: Ubuntu software center, there u type compiz-plugins-extra | 05:47 |
| rad_sci_guy | sacarlson: how do you turn it on with a rfkill command? | 05:47 |
| xgt001 | or even this will work i guess sudo apt-get compiz-fusion-plugins-extra | 05:48 |
| spikku | ActionParsnip, haha, autoremove seems to act differently then I interpreted the documentation | 05:48 |

| xgt001 | can u tell me the differences b/w lubuntu and ubuntu | 05:56 |
| g_0_0 | pylix, try removing the space in "New Folder" or rename new folder without spaces | 05:56 |
| xgt001 | lubuntu is lxde i guess?? | 05:56 |
| pylix | okay | 05:56 |
| rww | xgt001: yes | 05:56 |
| thorbj0rn | pylix: New\ Folder | 05:56 |
| thorbj0rn | spaces need escapes | 05:57 |
| ActionParsnip | xgt001: ubuntu uses gnome + compiz/metacity by default, Lubuntu uses LXDE + openbox and is drastically lighter even than Xubuntu | 05:57 |
| pylix | i took out the space | 05:57 |
| ActionParsnip | pylix: easier | 05:57 |
| xgt001 | differences btween gnome,lxde and xfce pls :) | 05:57 |
| g_0_0 | pylix, and any luck? | 05:57 |
| pylix | gonna re ./configure first | 05:58 |
| pylix | then try make | 05:58 |
| g_0_0 | yep | 05:58 |
| ActionParsnip | xgt001: base apps and reasources used | 05:58 |
| hilarie | When System Monitor 2.30.0 says 22% memory used as cache, is that essentially prefetch like on windows? | 05:58 |
| ActionParsnip | xgt001: you can install gnome apps in LXDE if you wish | 05:58 |
| xgt001 | compiz wont work in lxde??? | 05:58 |

| ActionParsnip | xgt001: sure will, its a bit weird though, using a light desktop like LXDE then adding fat old compiz... | 05:59 |
| thorbj0rn | xgt001: gnome, kde, xfce, lxde are window managers | 05:59 |
| hilarie | on an HP DV7 1129 WM | 05:59 |
| xgt001 | i mean ur ram, cpu | 05:59 |
| maco | thorbj0rn: no | 05:59 |
| maco | thorbj0rn: they're desktop environments | 06:00 |
| thorbj0rn | what he said. | 06:00 |
| ActionParsnip | hilarie: yes, your kernel will use the ram as disk cache, unused ram is wasted ram | 06:00 |
| rww | thorbj0rn: metacity, kwin, xfwm, and openbox are window managers. | 06:00 |
| hilarie | 4gb of ram (3.6 for memory and the rest for VideoRam) | 06:00 |
| maco | thorbj0rn: gnome's window manager is metacity. kde's is kwin. xfce's is xfwm4, and at least in lubuntu lxde uses openbox for a window manager | 06:00 |
| xgt001 | @thorbj0rn: diff bw xfce and lxde??? | 06:00 |
| rww | I am faster than the maco. | 06:00 |
| maco | rww: im more specific | 06:00 |
| hilarie | @actionparsnip would it be possible to turn it up? so it would use closer to 50% as cache? | 06:00 |

| ActionParsnip | xgt001: you can find out more than we can tell you with a few simple websearches | 06:01 |

| xgt001 | maco: ok.... if i use compiz effects like cube etc... it replaces metacity or will it just display the effects inside metacity??? | 06:02 |
| maco | xgt001: replaces | 06:03 |
| ActionParsnip | hilarie: not sure, if you set vm.swappines = 0 in /etc/sysctl.conf it will keep apps in ram rather than swapping out to swap | 06:03 |
| thorbj0rn | pylix: ...the library `Folder/glib-2.26.1/glib/lib... looks like it is still looking for "New Folder" somewhere | 06:03 |
| maco | xgt001: gtk-window-decorator ensures that it maintains your theme though | 06:03 |

| * jonnyboi anyone know about gnome shell support for 11.04 | 06:04 | |
| g_0_0 | pylix rename NewFolder as just Folder | 06:04 |
| xgt001 | ok in the desktop effects.. if i choose normal/none it uses metacity and if i choose extra then it runs compiz am i correct | 06:04 |
| hilarie | @actionParsnip where would I do that at? or if my swap space is never used, is that not happening? | 06:04 |
| xgt001 | gnome 2.32 in 11.04 | 06:04 |
| rigved | pylix: rename 'New Folder' to 'NewFolder'...without the quotes | 06:04 |
| jonnyboi | sigh, thanks, any chance of ppa support? | 06:04 |
| rww | jonnyboi: it'll be in a PPA, yes. | 06:04 |
| xgt001 | but gnome 3 will be included in the software center | 06:04 |
| jonnyboi | :D | 06:04 |
| pylix | i already did | 06:04 |
| thorbj0rn | g_0_0: it might be mis-parsing the line to "New" "Folder/... etcetcetc" | 06:04 |
| ActionParsnip | hilarie: like I said, in /etc/sysctl.conf | 06:05 |
| g_0_0 | thorbj0rn, I think it's expecting NewFolder to be called just Folder | 06:05 |
| sacarlson | pylix: what is the top of the tree that you are trying to compile? what application? | 06:05 |
| pylix | i´m gonna re-extract the source without the folder altogether | 06:05 |
| jonnyboi | Another question, I remember dell was going to release an ubuntu laptop but it fell through due to the 6 month release cycle | 06:05 |
| g_0_0 | thorbj0rn, we already renamed it NewFolder | 06:05 |
| pylix | glib 2.26.1 | 06:05 |
| jonnyboi | any chance that there will be a rolling release ubuntu? | 06:05 |
| jonnyboi | similar to what mint is doing? | 06:05 |
| ActionParsnip | jonnyboi: no | 06:05 |
| xgt001 | jonnyboi: mint rolling is debian based i guess | 06:06 |
| rww | jonnyboi: Dell ships Ubuntu laptops, and Ubuntu is not going to become rolling release. | 06:06 |
| ActionParsnip | jonnyboi: miint is now debian based which is a rolling release | 06:06 |
| thorbj0rn | g_0_0: yeah, but the script might still have a "New Folder" in there somewhere | 06:06 |
| sacarlson | pylix: that not an application that a lib, what application is it you plan to run it with? | 06:06 |
| jonnyboi | they do? In the US | 06:06 |
| g_0_0 | thorbj0rn, possibly but we haven't seen the makefile, worth a try just to rename it | 06:06 |
| ActionParsnip | jonnyboi: http://www.dell.co.uk/ubuntu | 06:06 |
| jonnyboi | I'm also a gentoo/arch user but I was wondering if ubuntu would go rolling release similar to mint | 06:07 |
| pylix | oh i need the dependency to get gtk+2.22.1 | 06:07 |
| thorbj0rn | pylix: pastbin makefile? | 06:07 |
| xgt001 | no no... ubuntu will be 6 month cycle | 06:07 |
| ActionParsnip | jonnyboi: sorry: http://www.ubuntu.com/dell | 06:07 |
| pylix | the whole thing? | 06:07 |
| rigved | pylix: i suggest restarting the make process by forcing it to start fresh, instead of using the cached files | 06:08 |
| jonnyboi | thanks, and the next LTS version is 12.04? | 06:08 |
| sacarlson | pylix: gtk_2.22.1 is also a lib, what application on top top top of that? | 06:08 |

| zenithdk_- | hi, when trying to compile rawstudio I get an error about not being able to find glib.h, but I already installed libglib2.0-dev, and I did apt-get build-dep rawstudio - it seems like a lot of include directories are missing to the gcc command, what should I do? | 06:08 |
| xgt001 | rolling release requires us to break our heads over broken packages :D (thats wat i guess) :P | 06:08 |
| xgt001 | 12.04 will be LTS :) | 06:08 |
| pylix | xfce 4.8 | 06:08 |
| jonnyboi | hmm, I know with arch/gentoo you have to merge config files with new updates | 06:09 |
| jonnyboi | I suspect it would be too hard for common users to do manually | 06:09 |
| jonnyboi | not sure how mint is going to pull it off | 06:09 |
| xgt001 | ya ... thats the reason | 06:09 |
| goddard | is it possible to login to ssh as the mysql user? | 06:10 |
| xgt001 | but mint have seperate editions for lxde, xfce, kde, gnome (ubuntu) and gnome (debian which is rolling) | 06:10 |

| SoulPropagation | So I've got a server that's giving me some trouble. I can ping it and access http://myserver.example.com but I can't get to my samba shares or ssh to it. Is there anything I can do to give it some sort of smack upside the head over the internet, or will I need physical access to do anything more? (pretty much stock server 10.10 x64 with lamp and samba set up to some degree) | 06:16 |

| pylix | on xfce.org they have a source tar there; but there are a lot of libs i need before i can make | 06:17 |
| sacarlson | pylix: that's all been done for you in the ppa build | 06:17 |
| pylix | make was successful :) | 06:18 |
| Abhinav1 | bazhang: hmm sure, I will that next time | 06:18 |

| xgt001 | i use my cell nokia 6600 to connect to the internet and i use bluetooth to connect for pc .... but i tried both ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10 both seem to hate my cel..............they dont even pair with my cell :( | 06:19 |
| ActionParsnip | xgt001: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothDialup | 06:20 |
| xgt001 | but it works flawlessly in 11.04 !!! | 06:20 |
| SoulPropagation | use 11.04 then | 06:20 |
| xgt001 | thats eating my headoff! | 06:20 |
| xgt001 | dude 11.04 is in alpha stage... (incomplete distro!!) | 06:21 |
| rww | #ubuntu is for released versions of Ubuntu. Try #ubuntu+1 for natty discussion. | 06:22 |
| ActionParsnip | xgt001: then make your call, which is more important.. | 06:22 |
| xgt001 | rww : there is no one online in #ubuntu+1 :( | 06:22 |
| bazhang | xgt001, then be patient | 06:23 |
| === jonnyboi is now known as jonnyboy | ||
| rww | xgt001: probably because people keep asking #ubuntu+1 questions in other channels. | 06:23 |
| bazhang | xgt001, its offtopic here | 06:23 |
| xgt001 | ok... :) any ideas about connecting nokia 6600 via bluetooth to Ubuntu 10.10 /10.04 for net connection???? | 06:24 |
| SoulPropagation1 | get the packages that are updated in 11.04 and add them to your 10.10 install | 06:24 |
| rww | Mixing packages from different versions of Ubuntu is not supported in this channel. | 06:25 |
| ActionParsnip | xgt001: http://www.abttech.com/connecting-internet-in-ubuntu-using-mobile-as-modem-via-bluetooth-or-datacable/ | 06:25 |
| bazhang | SoulPropagation1, supremely bad advice | 06:25 |
| xgt001 | i agree with bazhang ... will break lots of packages.... | 06:26 |
| xgt001 | actionparsnip: i tried it ... doesnt work :( | 06:26 |
| ActionParsnip | xgt001: could just wait 2 months | 06:26 |
| SoulPropagation1 | it works with 11.04's packages; it doesn't work with 10.10's packages. that means the only option is to use the updated versions of the packages. you could manually install them but there's no real option outside of version mixing | 06:28 |
| brandon420 | how can i check my computer specs? | 06:28 |
| xgt001 | the basic problem is... 10.10 cant access my cellphone's bluetooth services ....(even file sharing) .... | 06:28 |
| bazhang | SoulPropagation1, dont recommend it here. its not helpful at all. | 06:29 |
| bazhang | brandon420, sudo lshw | 06:29 |
| lazyPower | I'm having trouble locating a spidermonkey package for Ubuntu 10.10, does anybody have any helpful hints on where I could find it? | 06:29 |
| LinuxNoob | brandon420: noob even i know that, j/k :D | 06:29 |
| ActionParsnip | brandon420: or use lshw-gtk | 06:29 |
| g_0_0 | brandon420, sudo lshw | less | 06:29 |
| xgt001 | @brandon420: go to system>administration>system monitor> system | 06:29 |
| sacarlson | xgt001: might it just be in the kernel of 11.04? you should be able to backport that | 06:29 |
| ActionParsnip | !info lshw-gtk | 06:30 |

| brandon420 | ty | 06:30 |
| xgt001 | sacarlson: ya .... if thats the case then i dont think nothing much can be done :( | 06:30 |
| xgt001 | i wanted especially for 10.04 as its an LTS | 06:30 |
| SoulPropagation1 | bazhang: we've determined that it needs a newer version of whatever manages the connection than is available in 10.10. what else can you do besides get the newer package (or manually getting the package's contents or building the contents etc) somehow? | 06:31 |
| lazyPower | !info spidermonkey-bin | 06:31 |
| ubottu | Package spidermonkey-bin does not exist in maverick | 06:31 |
| sacarlson | xgt001: why did you already boot the 11.04 kernel in 10.10 and fail? | 06:31 |
| lazyPower | gah | 06:31 |
| lazyPower | whyyyyy | 06:31 |
| bazhang | SoulPropagation1, backports | 06:31 |
| xgt001 | @sacarlson: nonono i was using 10.10 b4.... bt then formatted it and installed 11.04 (only for testing)... and i noticed that bluetooth works so dint remove it | 06:32 |
| SoulPropagation1 | xgt001: do you have problems with 11.04? | 06:32 |
| ActionParsnip | lazyPower: do you mean Mozilla's C implementation of JavaScript. | 06:33 |
| lazyPower | ActionParsnip: its required to run the jslint plugin for gedit is all i know | 06:33 |
| pylix | the ppa didn´t work | 06:33 |
| pylix | my txt rendering is messed up now | 06:33 |
| xgt001 | @SoulPropagation1: not with the connection but with the gui of the OS .... i cant logout easily, notification area and compiz crashes randomly and so on | 06:33 |
| lazyPower | pylix: ooooooo i hadn't considered searching for a ppa. thanks! | 06:34 |
| xgt001 | thats justified though... its still in alpha...any help for 10.04 ??? | 06:34 |
| sacarlson | xgt001: so make a dualboot system with 10.10 and 11.04 and try backport the 11.04 kernel then, if not boot the one that has the feature you need at the moment | 06:34 |
| ActionParsnip | lazyPower: maybe: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/i386/spidermonkey-bin/1.8.1.16+nobinonly-0ubuntu1 never heard of it personally | 06:34 |
| PurplePeter | Hi everyone. Xorg has gone berserk and is taking up 100% CPU time on one core, and not working correctly. For some reason, despite sending it SIGKILL and SIGSTOP repeately, it won't die. How do I kill it? | 06:35 |
| xgt001 | @sacarlson: 11.04 has a sad grub as of now.... it wont install with the normal installation... it shows error ... so no 10.04 dual boot :( | 06:35 |
| fdsaseemslegit | PurplePeter, you kill it softly. Also, Have you tried to reboot? | 06:36 |
| SoulPropagation1 | xgt001: how about installing 10.04 second to use its grub | 06:36 |
| sacarlson | xgt001: you don't need to change grub to boot the 11.04 kernel, keep 10.04 grub and try just port the kernel | 06:36 |
| xgt001 | ok first i have to install 11.04 then 10.04??? | 06:36 |
| Skilz | hey guys my pc is screwed, it keeps freeing on the graphical 'Ubuntu' screen with the .... under it, it's before the GDM or what ever it is login screen. | 06:36 |
| SoulPropagation1 | xgt001: or use 10.04's installer to reinstall grub | 06:37 |
| xgt001 | sacarlson: can u explain how to port the kernel??? | 06:37 |
| chupacabra | try fedora | 06:37 |
| sacarlson | xgt001: you said you already have 11.04 installed, you just need to setup a spare 6 gig partition to install the secound | 06:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Skilz: when the splash shows, press ESC and you can see the useful text that plymouth hides | 06:37 |
| ActionParsnip | chupacabra: please be constructive | 06:37 |
| xgt001 | @chupacabra: ya i tried fedora as well ,... doesnt work | 06:37 |
| chupacabra | lol sorry | 06:38 |
| Blue1 | xgt001: this might help re-install grub: http://pkill-9.com/?p=314 | 06:38 |
| chupacabra | what video chipset? | 06:38 |
| PurplePeter | fdsaseemslegit: I have not. I was more worried about whether I've gone insane and SIGKILL doesn't actually just rudely remove the process from the run queue, than worried about how to fix the issue. For reference, I just discovered that dmesg has some pretty horrific things in it, so I think this issue may be that of a crashed graphics driver. | 06:38 |
| sacarlson | xgt001: to port the kernel just get the deb file for it and install it in 10.04 or just copy the two files that make up a kernel and put them into /boot and create a custom grub2 entry to boot that set of ported kernel to try | 06:39 |
| Skilz | ActionParsnip: not working | 06:39 |
| xgt001 | sacarlson: ok the simple deb install should work??? | 06:40 |
| lazaruspc | hi, I just moved my home folder to a new drive/partition, and I see a "lost & found" folder in it - is that normal? I'm a Linux noob - ty | 06:40 |
| xgt001 | wat about the dependencies???? | 06:40 |
| xgt001 | lazarus: ya thats normal... | 06:40 |
| lazaruspc | ok, thanks - is that like the hidden "recycler" in windows? | 06:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Skilz: ok then hold shift at boot, select recovery mode then select root, you can now use nano to edit /etc/default/grub and remove the quiet splash boot options, you can then run: update-grub to apply the change and reboot to get a text boot | 06:41 |
| sacarlson | xgt001: I'm not sure if the kernel is you problem or not but it's one difference between that it could be, what version kernel is your 11.04 now running? | 06:41 |
| xgt001 | @lazarus: exactly! | 06:41 |
| lazaruspc | tyty | 06:41 |
| xgt001 | 2.6.37 rc3 | 06:42 |
| Skilz | ActionParsnip: I already have that option turned off | 06:42 |
| listerdl | cant play dvds and done most things like medibuntu - but dvd is japanese u think that is problem | 06:42 |
| listerdl | am in japan :) | 06:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Skilz: then you should get no splash, just text | 06:43 |
| lazaruspc | might have to change region on the dvd player, listerdl | 06:43 |
| listerdl | thanks is that an option in VLC lazaruspc? | 06:43 |
| lazaruspc | listerdl: doubt it - in windows, you right-click on the player, properties - not sure in linux (I'm noob) | 06:44 |
| listerdl | thanks | 06:44 |
| lazaruspc | gl | 06:44 |
| lazaruspc | think it affects the firmware | 06:45 |
| sacarlson | xgt001: I see kernel 2.6.38 available in daily build ppa you could try on both 11.04 and 10.10 https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa?field.series_filter=lucid | 06:46 |
| blitzer32 | hey anybody here with a separate home partition can help me out | 06:47 |

| lazaruspc | blitzer:I just did it 5 min. ago, but I'm a major noob | 06:48 |
| sacarlson | xgt001: it an added repository that adds deb files yes | 06:48 |
| blitzer32 | when you had it in the home folder was it just your user name folder or was there other files | 06:48 |
| xgt001 | sacarlson: will give it a shot :) thanks | 06:48 |
| przemo_li | Hi | 06:49 |
| lazaruspc | blitzer: I believe there were all the default subfolders, but not sure -this is fresh install | 06:49 |
| przemo_li | Hi how to report bugs in boot process after upgrading to 11.04 | 06:50 |
| lazaruspc | I followed directions on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 06:50 |
| extra11 | hi | 06:50 |
| blitzer32 | so inside the home folder there is a boot folder and an initrd.img amongst other things or no | 06:50 |
| cse03_ | where is the trash option present? | 06:51 |
| lazaruspc | I see no boot folder in mine | 06:51 |
| lazaruspc | the commands on the page I just listed move everything to the new home folder | 06:51 |
| cse03_ | i want to restore my file from trash . where the trash present ? | 06:51 |
| blitzer32 | okay thanks i thought so i can delete those then thx just wanted to double check | 06:51 |
| lazaruspc | blitzer: I'd back it up first | 06:52 |
| lazaruspc | can't be too safe | 06:52 |
| cse03_ | what is the terminal command to restore from trash? | 06:52 |
| blitzer32 | i already have a separate home partition setup thats not it my home partition is 10 gb and its only showing about 3 gb but i think i forgot to format the partition after changing it from the whole install to just the home partition | 06:52 |
| zenithdk_- | cse03_: how about just going to the trash and then move it back out again? | 06:53 |
| zenithdk_- | if you deleted something using the command line, then it is gone | 06:53 |
| lazaruspc | blitzer: that page should help - took me a while, but I'm very new to this | 06:54 |
| blitzer32 | just to be sure zenithdk_- ubuntu doesn't install any system files on your home partition right? | 06:54 |
| zenithdk_- | blitzer32: I have no idea how your partition layout is, so can't answer that | 06:55 |
| blitzer32 | okay how about this i have a initrd.img file on my file system partition and on my home partition is that normal | 06:56 |
| SuperMiguel | whats the easiest web serveri can use? | 06:56 |

| chupacabra | the newest | 06:57 |
| zenithdk_- | blitzer32: I would expect it only to be on the file system partition, but I am no expert | 06:57 |
| przemo_li | Hi how to report bugs in boot process after upgrading to 11.04 | 06:57 |
| zenithdk_- | chupacabra: is that not a bit overkill? apache is hardly easy to configure? | 06:57 |
| lazaruspc | gl blitzer, good night to all | 06:58 |
| przemo_li | apache goes as pre configured | 06:58 |
| chupacabra | is for me. get something less and when you need a real feature it ain't there | 06:58 |
| przemo_li | put anything to /var/www | 06:58 |
| blitzer32 | okay thanks i'm pretty sure i know whats wrong so ill take the plung and delete them whats a reinstall anyway | 06:58 |

| blitzer32 | i dont think so Datz what would make you think that | 07:13 |
| maco | blitzer32: the fact that the 10.04.2 freeze is currently in effect? | 07:13 |
| Datz | well, 10.04.1 was apparently the first point release | 07:14 |

| ericthehax | I just gotta say it, I'm stumped. Is there a file I could edit to change default compiling options? Y'know, so I don't have to specify everything every time? Such as in Gentoo there's /etc/make.conf | 07:14 |
| blitzer32 | really i missed that i just went to 10.10 and forgot about the rest | 07:14 |

| yondering | brandon420, ~/.conkyrc | 07:29 |
| yondering | brandon420, ~ is your /home/username directory, if you didn't know. .conkyrc (note the period at the beginning) is a hidden file. If it's not there, it needs to be created. | 07:30 |

| ActionParsnip | Can remember your wishes | 08:15 |

| c0ldfront | !panel coldfront | 08:17 |
| hakermania | ActionParsnip: So, there should not be user action. These new mime-types should be opened by default with my app. | 08:17 |
| fromwubi2partiti | Is anyone there? | 08:17 |
| ActionParsnip | hakermania: why not remaster the ubuntu iso so the app is installed on any machine you setup with it | 08:17 |
| fromwubi2partiti | Hello, I just reinstalled Ubuntu on a new partition and I'm trying to replace its root.disk with wubi root.disk I had before. How can I do this? | 08:19 |
| hakermania | ActionParsnip: I wasn't probably understood. I am developing an app. It is currently reviewed by the MOTUS, in order to be included to ubuntu. This app has some project files. These files have to be opened with my application by default, once my application's deb file is installed. Imagine that you're downloading a DEB file from Ubuntu Software Center e.g. audacity, it does have .aup project files, that open by default with Audacity. I wan | 08:20 |
| hakermania | I have created the new mime type, I've added an icon for this mime-type, and all work, except the association application-mime type, i mean, to open this mime-type with my application. | 08:21 |
| ActionParsnip | hakermania: there is a textfile in the user folder to set associations per user so the file may be in /usr/skel | 08:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Or is it /etc/skel | 08:22 |

| minimec | sudo_zoel: With mutter you cannot. Mutter is an seperate compositing window manager tool. It will be the base of the Gnome 3.0 desktop, while Ubuntu will stay with a compiz/Unity combination. | 09:53 |
| suprengr | sudo_zoel: download Compiz Fusion Icon - use it to restart window manager | 09:53 |
| ejv | more people here should use it | 09:53 |

| rafaa | Hi, I have a Bash script which updates a text file. When I run it by hand it works, but if it's executed by cron it doesn't work | 09:58 |
| rafaa | can anybody help me? [BASH] [CRON] | 09:58 |
| suprengr | sudo_zoel: is it showing in your panel yet? If not fire it up from menu & then...right click on the icon and select "Restart Window Manager". | 09:58 |

| MagicJ | I removed, using apt-get remove, the FastUserSwitcherApplet because it was confusing my staff. Now when I log in I get the message that there is a problem loading it. What do I need to do to stop the attempted load? | 10:00 |

| aagon | helloo | 10:02 |
| RicoSwave | thanks greppy but i'm gonna just go back to wubi and replace the root.disk until ubuntu figures out a more elegant fix to this | 10:02 |
| rafaa | greppy, why am I supposed to do like this? These are standard executables. Doesn't cron set the defaut $PATH? | 10:02 |
| yangyitao | hi | 10:02 |
| greppy | rafaa: no. | 10:03 |
| q_a_z_steve | does anyone know whether mailman inherently has issues with underscores in an address when sending? Maybe multiple underscores??? | 10:03 |
| minimec | sudo_zoel: http://paste.ubuntu.com/562992/ | 10:03 |
| rafaa | greppy, but if I set PATH in the script, then cron will use it, right? | 10:03 |
| greppy | rafaa: the script will use it, cron won't care :) | 10:03 |
| rafaa | greppy ok :D | 10:03 |
| rafaa | greppy, do you know how can I plot the results with gnuplot? | 10:04 |
| greppy | rafaa: nope | 10:04 |
| rafaa | ok :D thx anyway | 10:04 |
| n3rV3 | rafaa, what do you want to plot? | 10:04 |
| rafaa | n3rv3 it's a text file | 10:04 |
| rafaa | each line contains a number in [0:99] | 10:05 |
| rafaa | it's the wifi signal measure during day, n3rv3 | 10:05 |
| rafaa | if I do something like gnuplot> plot "wifi.dat" I don't get the right plot | 10:05 |
| greppy | rafaa: to plot it, wouldn't you also need a timestamp? | 10:06 |
| rafaa | greppy, I don't know gnuplot :D I think that if you have a single column you should interpret it like a historical series | 10:06 |
| greppy | rafaa: I don't know gnuplot either, so good luck :) | 10:07 |
| rafaa | (I don't know how you call it, in Italy we say "serie storica" | 10:07 |
| rafaa | greppy ok :D | 10:07 |
| n3rV3 | does this work ? > gnuplot plot "wifi.dat" using 1 | 10:07 |

| juk | gunndawg: you are wellcome :) | 10:10 |
| n3rV3 | rafaa glad it worked :) | 10:10 |
| rafaa | schnuffle1 rrdtool seems a fantastic tool! I'm looking at its doc | 10:11 |
| rafaa | n3rv3 thx for your help :D | 10:11 |
| n3rV3 | rafaa, no problem | 10:12 |

| minimec | sudo_zoel: http://paste.ubuntu.com/562992/ | 10:17 |
| minimec | sudo_zoel: That adress? | 10:17 |
| schnuffle1 | rafaa: :) so you have a cron job running, writing a value to your file? wouldn't it be better to store the time as well? Using rrdtool you would fill a rrd database instead of writing to a file | 10:18 |
| onceltuca | think i have spotted my problem now.. I can only start x as root. is there any simple solution to this? i.e i want to be able to start as any user. | 10:19 |
| legion_ | ? | 10:20 |
| rafaa | schnuffle1, of course, I can do it :D but how??? is it simple enough? with cron and gnuplot I accomplish it soon.. I don't know rrdtool, can you link me the right (simple) documentation for writing to database and plotting it? | 10:21 |
| Firartix | Hey guyz! Is there some text command i can use to do stuff like the Suspend or Restart commands? | 10:21 |
| schnuffle1 | rafaa: have a look at http://www.mrtg.org/rrdtool/tut/rrdtutorial.en.html | 10:21 |
| erUSUL | Firartix: to suspend to ram a laptop ? | 10:21 |
| Firartix | yea | 10:22 |
| Firartix | i changed WM | 10:22 |
| Firartix | and the new one don't have those features in menus | 10:22 |
| Firartix | so i was wonderring if i can still use them through command line | 10:22 |
| minimec | onceltuca: YOu should be able to start the xserver as normal user, but not the gdm (gnome-display-manager) | 10:23 |
| Firartix | no clue about it :( ? | 10:23 |

| Firartix | erUSUL: but if i run that from a normal user, will it work? | 10:25 |
| Firartix | sudo blocks and ask for the root pass right :| ? | 10:25 |
| erUSUL | Firartix: yes | 10:25 |
| Firartix | eew | 10:25 |
| onceltuca | minimec: ok, because now the startup hangs when the ubuntu logo is visible | 10:26 |
| erUSUL | Firartix: what are you trying to do ? | 10:26 |
| Firartix | erUSUL: which yes :P ? | 10:26 |
| Firartix | well i wanted to add some command to suspend in my WM's custom menu thingy | 10:26 |
| erUSUL | Firartix: it needs sudo and sudo will ask for password ( it can be configured not to ) | 10:26 |
| nemetos | why is the lan connection called "auto eth0"? as in automatic connection, ethernet.. slot 0? | 10:26 |
| onceltuca | minimec: but when i start in recovery mode and drop to root prompt i can run startx to start x as root | 10:27 |
| Firartix | erUSUL: just modifying the permissions on /sys/power/state would be ok? | 10:27 |
| erUSUL | nemetos: eth0 is the name of the interface of the first ethernet card | 10:27 |
| minimec | onceltuca: That is strange... | 10:27 |
| erUSUL | Firartix: sys is a virtual fs the change even if possible ( i dunno ) wont stick | 10:27 |
| Firartix | ow | 10:27 |
| erUSUL | Firartix: yu should use gnome-power-daemon or something similar | 10:27 |
| Firartix | hmm | 10:28 |
| onceltuca | minimec: i recenly ininstalled gnome-power-manager since it said the it was bad configured. I thought it was not needed since im not on a laptop | 10:28 |
| minimec | onceltuca: Just as a test. start in recovery, do 'su youraccount' in the root-terminal to startx as user youraccount ;) | 10:28 |
| schnuffle1 | rafaa: your cron job would do something like rrdtool update test.rrd $(date -u +%s):<your actual value> | 10:28 |
| Firartix | erUSUL: i got gnome-power-manager but no daemon | 10:29 |
| onceltuca | minimec: that what im doing now.. doesnt work.. | 10:29 |
| onceltuca | minimec: screen is black | 10:29 |
| erUSUL | Firartix: something that lets the user loged in the main machine display to suspend and/or power off the machine | 10:29 |
| minimec | onceltuca: Hmmm... That's really strange. Don't know what to say... | 10:29 |

| Firartix | i can just enter the password every time.. | 10:30 |
| schnuffle1 | rafaa: it's a bit confusing a the beginning but as soon you got into it it makes life very easy | 10:30 |
| minimec | onceltuca: If you added a new user in that console 'adduser xservertest', then si xservertest and then 'startx' as user xservertest? | 10:30 |

| minimec | bibic682: 9.04 is not supported anymore. Easiest way is to upgrade to 9.10. (8.04 was LTS, that's why it is still supported until 11.04 I think. | 10:51 |

| erUSUL | dell: do "sudo apt-get install pastebinit " when that finishes do « pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com /var/log/Xorg.0.log » | 10:52 |
| chiiiiiz | regarding conky, I must has misunderstood quite a lot of things | 10:52 |
| erUSUL | dell: tell us the url it returns | 10:53 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: still thinking... | 10:53 |
| researcher1 | I had ubuntu installed once.Then it stopped booting so I formatted drive c installed XP on it.Now cant install Ubuntu from LiveCD.It takes too long to start installation and hangs in the middle | 10:53 |
| chiiiiiz | my .conkyrc is made from examples, and I always have "no such configuration" when starting conky in a console | 10:53 |
| Firartix | rbk17: me too :p | 10:54 |
| chiiiiiz | can any one help me on that? I would like to see the temp, top processes, the state of my discs... | 10:54 |
| Firartix | rbk17: erUSUL: thanks alot for your help btw | 10:54 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: right, One way is to make a short "script" - it that is an option ? | 10:55 |
| Reapu | is it possible to download all tagged photos from mine or someone elses facebook? | 10:55 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: again you let us, pastebin exact command you giving and error output, your concyrc | 10:55 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: ( no longer a simple one-liner ) | 10:55 |
| erUSUL | Firartix: still not fixed though :S | 10:55 |
| Firartix | rbk17: well i guess | 10:56 |
| dell | erUSUL: this is it http://paste.ubuntu.com/563013/ | 10:56 |
| Reapu | is it possible to download all tagged photos from mine or someone elses facebook? | 10:56 |
| rbk17 | echo "echo mem > /proc..." > /tmp/sleepnow.sh | 10:56 |
| Firartix | the WM configuration is in LUA, and you can add menu entries that launch commands | 10:56 |
| Firartix | so i guess it can be done eas | 10:56 |
| Firartix | easy | 10:56 |
| Firartix | oh | 10:56 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: echo "echo mem > /proc..." > /tmp/sleepnow.sh | 10:56 |
| juk | Reapu: what hell is it got to do with ubuntu support? | 10:56 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: chmod +x /tmp/sleepnow.sh | 10:57 |
| Firartix | then execute said script? | 10:57 |
| chiiiiiz | juk: http://pastebin.com/24Jr4bMd | 10:57 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: gksudo -S /tmp/sleepnow.sh | 10:57 |
| Firartix | rbk17: i guess i gotta replace the /proc by /sys/power/state ? | 10:57 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: yes | 10:58 |
| Firartix | k, trying now | 10:58 |
| Firartix | silly question btw rbk17 | 10:58 |
| Firartix | > appends to stuff? don't i need to clear the file after executing? | 10:59 |
| chiiiiiz | juk: can't get anything in a log file using "conky > mylog" though I have a lot of errors in a console | 10:59 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: you choosed pastebin poorly | 10:59 |
| chiiiiiz | juk: what do you mean? | 10:59 |
| Firartix | oo nvm that i just fail XD | 11:00 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: no, unless you can't spare one block of free space in tmp... | 11:00 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: i can't see your paste for 2min staring at ad | 11:00 |
| erUSUL | dell: do « compiz --replace » ina terminal and see if that works. if it prints anything or errors paste them | 11:00 |
| nixjr | how can i do "echo 'Generated at' ; date" but without creating newline between the two? | 11:00 |
| bibic682 | wow, upgrading to 9.10....hope my system can handle it :) | 11:00 |
| q_a_z_steve | does anyone know whether mailman inherently has issues with underscores in an address when sending? Maybe multiple underscores??? | 11:01 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: There IS a (very small) security risk: if someone changes sleepnow.sh before gksudo... | 11:01 |
| llutz | nixjr: echo -n 'Generated at' ; date | 11:01 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: ok, it came now | 11:01 |
| === SirNeo is now known as sirneo | ||
| Firartix | w00t, does work, tyvm rbk17 :) ! | 11:01 |
| nixjr | llutz, perfect, thanks | 11:02 |
| Firartix | rbk17: isn't the execution synchronous or something? | 11:02 |
| dell | erUSUL: done and still not working i got this.. compiz --replace | 11:02 |
| dell | libccs: dlopen: /usr/lib/compizconfig/backends/libgconf.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 11:02 |
| dell | Couldn't find a perfect decorator match; trying all decorators | 11:02 |
| dell | Found no decorator to start | 11:02 |
| FloodBot3 | dell: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 11:02 |
| llutz | nixjr: or echo 'Generated at ' $(date) | 11:02 |

| Firartix | tyvm :) ! | 11:02 |
| chiiiiiz | juk: sorry, I do not understand... is there a problem with the link? It works by me! | 11:02 |
| erUSUL | dell: what version of ubuntu ? | 11:02 |
| eleni | Hi guys, how do I increase the size of ubuntu's host space (running on NTFS, windows host) - usual partition way doesn't apply, thanks. | 11:02 |
| chiiiiiz | ow, OK | 11:03 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: I guess you mean "atomic"? no | 11:03 |
| erUSUL | !wubi | eleni | 11:03 |

| dell | erUSUL:ubuntu netbook 10.10 | 11:03 |
| eleni | Cheers. | 11:03 |
| chiiiiiz | juk: I am indeed | 11:03 |
| erUSUL | dell: ok; maybe netbook edition does not use compiz nor complete gnome desktop ... | 11:03 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: ah | 11:04 |
| chiiiiiz | I followed a french howto | 11:04 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: so what was the command again? | 11:04 |
| chiiiiiz | juk: nobody's perfect.... | 11:04 |
| dell | erUSUL: what do u mean?? | 11:04 |
| chiiiiiz | conky | 11:04 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: you might want to make sleepnow.sh "permanent" by moving it to /usr/bin (or /usr/local/bin), setting the right permissions | 11:04 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: chmod 755 , and owner root. | 11:05 |
| chiiiiiz | I try to have the output of this command in a txt file... but it is always empty... | 11:05 |
| Firartix | oh | 11:05 |
| Firartix | good point | 11:05 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: did i mention word perfect? | 11:05 |
| Firartix | that way you can't change it iwthout root permission | 11:05 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: right. | 11:05 |
| pedrovaz | hi guys! I'm new to ubuntu (using 11.04) and I'm looking for an app that I can use to record macros. Can you help me? | 11:06 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: im waiting | 11:06 |
| chiiiiiz | juk: http://pastebin.com/xXsYRTRY | 11:06 |
| chiiiiiz | here is the log | 11:06 |
| erUSUL | dell: that the netbook edition uses unity a new interface. i've never used it so i dunno how to troubleshoot your issue | 11:07 |
| erUSUL | dell: it does not use compiz to provide desktop effects ... | 11:07 |
| rbk17 | Firartix: best of luck, need to logoff now | 11:07 |
| Firartix | thanks lot :) | 11:07 |
| DanielParker | hi, I have a question... I'm upgrading from 9.10 to 10.10... and want to save my printer settings (was a real hassle, and still not alot better in 10.10 I saw), which directories should I backup to save both settings and drivers? | 11:07 |
| dell | erUSUL: oic..thanks dude for your time n effort..much appreciated | 11:08 |
| chiiiiiz | juk: I did not expect it to work perfectly at first shot... but I expecetd at least something to display, that I could work from... | 11:08 |
| erUSUL | dell: no problem. FYI you intel graphic drivers are correctly installed and work ok. | 11:08 |
| devkorcvince | Im planning on installing nvidia driver from nvidia site? cause ubuntu repo nvidia driver is not the latest one? is it safe to install the driver? | 11:09 |
| dvrcoder | hi. question: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PamCcredsHowto why would i want to have auth [default=done] pam_ccreds.so action=validate? | 11:09 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: sigh, i meant that pastebin.com is slower, than paste.ubuntu.com | 11:09 |
| === pedrovaz is now known as ptknight | ||
| chiiiiiz | ok, I'll do that | 11:09 |
| elie | hi | 11:10 |
| elie | i have a question | 11:10 |
| Reapu | is there a way to download all tagged photos from someone's profile on facebook in bulk? | 11:10 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: well fresh installed conky, works just fine | 11:11 |
| chiiiiiz | juk: http://paste.ubuntu.com/563015/ | 11:11 |
| VCoolio | devkorcvince: sure, just uninstall the packages from the repos first and remember you did this, so you can remove when you want | 11:11 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: on top of compiz though it's pervertic | 11:12 |
| chiiiiiz | OK, so I must remove my desktop effects? | 11:12 |
| chiiiiiz | I did remove them and no change.... | 11:13 |
| * devco3 is away: ==> je revient | 11:13 | |
| VCoolio | chiiiiiz: border_margin is deprecated I think, and instead of ${font | 11:13 |
| VCoolio | it must read ${font} | 11:13 |
| VCoolio | chiiiiiz: and ${color} needs a number for predefined colors, or html tag, like ${color2} or ${color 123abc} | 11:14 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: i didn't say to remove anything yet, dont harm yourself | 11:14 |
| chiiiiiz | VCoolio: thanks for your help. Do you mean I shall add a figure after ${color} (ex: ${color1}) for testing? | 11:15 |
| ibrahim | hi, i have a problem in installing the "ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver" evry time i install it there is an error then when i reboot the ubuntu gives me s black screen and stops my laptop is hp G62-a44EE i need help | 11:16 |
| ptknight | I'm looking for an app to record macros with ubuntu 11.04. Could you recommend 1? | 11:16 |
| VCoolio | chiiiiiz: yes, but then also a line in which you specify color1, like: color1 orange or: color1 000000 | 11:16 |
| MopperWhite | gmail上不去！ | 11:16 |
| DanielParker | ptknight, imacros ? | 11:17 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: well it looks like you copied malformed conkyrc | 11:17 |
| Firartix | owwwwwwwwwww what thy hell | 11:17 |
| chiiiiiz | juk: lucky me... the links come from the ubuntu-fr docs!!! | 11:18 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: is default one works which is in /etc/conky/ | 11:18 |
| DanielParker | how can I backup my printer-settings+drivers? | 11:18 |
| Firartix | it worked fine from term, but when putting it in /usr/bin it got all messed up | 11:18 |
| Firartix | even tho it's same contents | 11:18 |
| VCoolio | chiiiiiz: wait, the most important thing misses | 11:19 |
| VCoolio | add a line with just TEXT at line 104, then try again :) | 11:19 |
| VCoolio | chiiiiiz: line 87 I mean, just after #info ordi | 11:20 |
| Firartix | attempting to execute the script doing echo mem > /sys/power/state now tells me that /sys/power/state is a directory... | 11:20 |
| * VCoolio kicks himself | 11:20 | |
| chiiiiiz | juk: the default one works | 11:20 |
| Firartix | and trying to cd in it tells me it fails because it's not a dir | 11:21 |
| * Firartix kills himself | 11:21 | |
| VCoolio | chiiiiiz: a conky config has two parts: settings above line TEXT and contents below, you miss TEXT | 11:21 |
| juk | chiiiiiz: so my suggestion is to do research on syntax or look for verifyed conkyrc | 11:21 |
| eleni | I ran lpvm and set the new size, but it's taking a whiiile without any versbose responses, is that ordinary? Usual eta? | 11:22 |
| dvrcoder | for pam_ccreds, the wiki says to set auth [default=done] pam_ccreds.so action=validate, but why not [default=die success=done] ? | 11:23 |
| chiiiiiz | Vcoolio: so I must add "TEXT" below line 87? | 11:23 |
| ptknight | member:spow when? | 11:23 |
| tgywa | how can I remove all php 5 related packages at once ? | 11:23 |
| VCoolio | chiiiiiz: yes just before or after #info ordi | 11:23 |
| VCoolio | chiiiiiz: but with only TEXT on that line | 11:24 |
| DanielParker | how can I backup my printer-settings+drivers? | 11:24 |
| chiiiiiz | doen, testing | 11:24 |
| juk | rock and roll | 11:25 |

| shooood | any help | 11:26 |
| gunndawg | out of curiosity | 11:26 |

| shooood | any help | 11:27 |
| VCoolio | chiiiiiz: freq_dyn_g doesn't seem to exist anymore, delete where it is mentioned in the config; also you'll need hwmon package for some lines to work, figure that out or find alternatives to show this output; error destroying thread I don't know | 11:28 |

| VCoolio | juk: pretty much, line TEXT was missing, and some packages used in this config; it's better now, he'll get there | 11:36 |
| juk | ah | 11:37 |
| mkanyicy | DanielParker: why would you want to do that? | 11:37 |
| shooood | it's supposed to setup chesse but there is nothing | 11:37 |
| shooood | i typed chesse after the installation finished but it didn't work | 11:38 |
| sacarlson | DanielParker: most of the stuf if not all can be found and backed up at /etc/cups/ dir | 11:38 |
| DanielParker | mkanyicy, I want to because it was a real hassle installing it... I'm upgrading from 9.10 to 10.10 and it doesn't seem to be a lot better there... so just in case I want to save the printer-settings/drivers | 11:38 |

| mkanyicy | DanielParker: just note down the steps you took to install them and proceed | 11:41 |
| minimec | shooood: Pease check gstreamer-properties... v4l is the first gegenratio of linux-webcam-dirvers. v4l2 is the 2nd generation... ;) | 11:41 |
| shooood | but i can't understand what does it mean v4l-cam | 11:41 |

| cmartin0 | is there a way to prevent that driver from loading? | 11:46 |
| minimec | shooood: gstreamer is your default multimedia framework. If you have rhythmbox or totem player on your system you have gstreamer running. It's default on a ubuntu install. I would be surprised, if you don't have gstreamer installed on your ubuntu system... | 11:46 |
| dirtyhabanero | cmartin0: do you know the apache chan? | 11:46 |
| shooood | minimec : sorry | 11:46 |

| Ad0 | on my mdadm lvm setup | 11:47 |

| mkanyicy | Ddorda: you can also do 'ssh -Y username@remote-computer' and then type 'gnome-pannel' | 12:45 |
| mkanyicy | Ddorda: the remote pannel will 'replace' your local one | 12:46 |

| gratz|home | hi all, i have a python script which should open a usb device to read from, it works as root but not as standard user (permissions problem) in the past it used to be a case of adding the user to the usb group in /etc/group but it seems this has changed, how should i go about doing this now? Ubuntu 10.10 | 12:48 |
| mkanyicy | Ddorda: now I realise what you want to do | 12:49 |
| mkanyicy | Ddorda: i misunderstood you completely | 12:49 |

| blue112 | I have a problem regarding my audio driver. I'm on a laptop. When I boot the computer with a jack in the headphone pin, everything goes right. If I don't, I need to restart the sound (alsabase restart + modprobe), which takes time and I boring. How can I fix that ? | 12:49 |
| schnuffle1 | gratz|home: you can use sudo to execute the command as root | 12:49 |
| erUSUL | gratz|home: what usb device? check the permissions of the device node | 12:49 |

| erUSUL | gratz|home: "dialout" i mean | 12:51 |
| Ddorda | sedeki: put the fonts on ~/.fonts or use apt-get | 12:51 |

| gratz|home | user is part of dialout and tty which i figured might have done it but no joy | 12:52 |
| Ddorda | kaddi: so he can use the computer | 12:52 |
| erUSUL | Niglop: is that all? | 12:52 |
| gratz|home | jrib, there's no files on the usb, it's just a converter (USB -> RS232) but using pyusb to read usb device configuration stuff and it needs to open the device for this | 12:52 |
| Niglop | erUSUL› i think i accidently stopped it early | 12:52 |
| minimec | sedeki: Put them in the folder /usr/share/fonts for all users or create a .fonts folder in /home/yourname and put them in there. | 12:52 |
| anygivenname | how do I configure proxy server so I am able to route through it from any outside connection ? | 12:52 |
| jrib | gratz|home: can't you just check the permissions on the device? | 12:52 |

| Dr_Willis | Firartix: xrandr perhaps. | 13:17 |

| RishavT | Hey guys. I've been using Ubuntu since quite a while now, and I've always had a slight lag in the compiz animations. I thought it was because of my configuration (3 yr old laptop, core2duo 1.5GHz, 2gb ram, nvidia GeForce 8400M GS). However, recently my mom bought a Dell Inspiron Mini (Atom 1.6GHz processor, 1gb ram, Intel inegrated graphics). And it works perfectly on hers (better than mine). So It shouldn't be due to low configuration (since even window | 13:21 |
| RishavT | s seven works fast), and on researching on the internet I've found out its due to nvidia. But I never found a solution. Anyone knows how I can get rid of this? (Lag increases a lot when using docky) | 13:21 |

| schnuffle1 | Oins: but please set AllowRootLogin to no on sshd config | 13:25 |
| schnuffle1 | Oins: and next time use visudo which prefents syntax errors | 13:26 |
| llutz_ | Forcedcommands-only | 13:26 |
| Oins | schnuffle1: i have AllowGroups... and AllowRootLogin no | 13:26 |
| m4rtin | Oins: you might be able to fix this by modifying grub to boot with init=/bin/bash | 13:26 |
| Oins | schnuffle1: ah is visudo a sudo editor? | 13:26 |
| rbk17 | RishavT: last thing I can think of: I guess glxinfo | grep vendor | 13:27 |
| m4rtin | Oins: actually, cancel that, it won't give your ssh session root | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | visudo double checkes the sudoers file i belive. | 13:27 |
| rbk17 | RishavT: gives you: OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation | 13:27 |
| RishavT | rbk17: okay, I'll just do that. one moment. | 13:27 |

| m4rtin | "The default sudo configuration in Ubuntu is pretty basic and can be found in the /etc/sudoers file. Note that you must never edit this file using a standard text editor. You must use the visudo tool. visudo is required because it will perform extra validation on the sudoers file before you close it to make sure there aren't any syntax errors. This is crucial because a syntax error in a sudoers file could lock out all of the users on you | 13:28 |

| qebab | Hi, does anyone know why my tcp connections (Like ssh or streams) would randomly start lagging while I'm on battery power, but never while I'm using a charger? I can't see anything in power management that reduces the power output to my wireless, could there also be somewhere else to look? | 13:52 |
| CoGo | Hey gang. I'm trying to get a 1920x1080 resolution, using an nVidia Quadro 3400 (current restricted driver) on Ubuntu 10.10 with a 22" screen. | 13:52 |
| Dr_Willis | CoGo: you ran the nvidia-settings tool? what sort of connection to the monito rare you using? | 13:53 |
| CoGo | Problem is it maxes out at 1360x768. Without the restricted driver, I'm limited to 1024x768. Editing xorg.conf doesn't seem to add anything, and xrandr doesn't show any additional modes. | 13:53 |
| amin_ | Dr_Willis: how can I Find My Main dsl connection I have eth0 that is my lan and eth1 and lo and ppp0 and ppp1 I have to say I creat 3 vpn connection | 13:53 |
| CoGo | Dr_Willis, I did. The connection is VGA cable, and this resolution works under Windows. | 13:53 |
| CoGo | Dr_Willis, I suspect it doesn't recognize the monitor's ability to handle it. Interestingly, when I ran a game under Linux, it DID recognize and set that resolution. | 13:54 |
| onceltuca | minimec: hmm ok.. | 13:54 |
| Dr_Willis | CoGo: personally.. i would dump the vga.. and go dvi. the picture will look a lot bette. and your res issues will proberly go away also. | 13:54 |
| CoGo | Dr_Willis, I can give it a try. I believe I have a DVI cable here somewhere.. | 13:54 |
| Dr_Willis | CoGo: ive had to convince a dozen guys at work in the past to start using dvi.. they all came back amazed at how much beter dvi looked. | 13:54 |
| brobinson | Dr_Willis: it appears the only mountable partition is sda1, it has files inside but does not contain my old system (files to be recovered)? | 13:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Im not sure how good an idea it is to hotswap out vga to hdmi cables. :) You may want to poweroff to switch | 13:55 |
| Dr_Willis | brobinson: if they are not in lost+found, then im not sure how else you can revcover them | 13:55 |
| CoGo | Dr_Willis, I checked first, don't have them. | 13:56 |
| CoGo | Dr_Willis, but I did find out I'm converting the DVI signal to VGA. | 13:56 |
| Dr_Willis | CoGo: that can cause even more problems. | 13:56 |
| Dr_Willis | CoGo: and going through a KVM type switch - even more issues. | 13:56 |
| CoGo | Dr_Willis, still, shouldn't it be possible to force higher resolutions on Ubuntu by editing the xorg.conf? | 13:56 |
| CoGo | Dr_Willis, I mean, obviously, it works if it's set. | 13:57 |
| Dr_Willis | CoGo: proberly. but ive not had to mess with it in years. :) | 13:57 |
| Dr_Willis | replaced all my desk hogging/backbreaking CRTs with lcd's and not looked back. | 13:57 |
| CoGo | But the options I add in don't show up on the nVidia control panel. Same with regular Monitors screen if I use OS drivers. | 13:57 |
| nickGGG | hi, when I try to install an app it says not enough disk space. Im with win7 and ubuntu. can any1 help me ? | 13:58 |
| CoGo | It does recognize the screen as CRT. I recall previous versions of Ubuntu with the same issue having a dialog to manually configure a screen, which solved the problem. Since it's gone now, is there any way to achieve that? | 13:58 |

| ubottu | The only dumb or stupid question is the one not asked. Please do not tell people off for asking something, just because it seems simple or obvious to you -- we discourage this attitude in all our channels. | 14:21 |
| AbhijiT | :o | 14:21 |
| llutz_ | snimavat: no iptables-rules blocking port 22 | 14:21 |
| Dr_Willis | shomon: you may have confused apt a lot. | 14:21 |
| antonello | hello | 14:21 |
| * AbhijiT ddnt knew that factoid exists!!! | 14:21 | |
| Dr_Willis | /var/cache/ has a lot of differnt things.. | 14:21 |
| shomon | well when I saw I wasn't in /var/www/cache as I thought I was, I did a control c | 14:22 |
| shomon | so it's just anything that would have been in the base /var/cache | 14:22 |
| snimavat | llutz_: on my desktop? | 14:22 |
| llutz_ | snimavat: server | 14:22 |
| snimavat | llutz_: no such rules | 14:22 |
| shomon | thanks Dr_Willis | 14:22 |
| Dr_Willis | i dont see any actual files in /var/cache/ just a lot of dirs. | 14:22 |
| snimavat | llutz_: no, i can connect from putty | 14:22 |
| shomon | cool... I hope then I didn't destroy something. | 14:22 |
| llutz_ | snimavat: "ssh -vvv user@server" and check output for errors | 14:22 |
| shomon | is there a way to find out what is in a standard var/cache? | 14:23 |
| Dr_Willis | shomon: with out the -r - i dont think it would remove anything. except perhaps empty dirs | 14:23 |
| snimavat | llutz_: connection to host port 22 refused | 14:23 |
| shomon | or is it always empty.. I did an LS so it would only have been hidden files? | 14:23 |
| Dr_Willis | shomon: it would depend on what you got installed | 14:23 |
| llutz_ | shomon: there are no files going to be deleted by "rm /var/cache" | 14:23 |
| shomon | cool! thanks | 14:23 |
| Dr_Willis | shomon: /var/cache has about 20 dirs in it here. | 14:23 |
| snimavat | ok | 14:23 |
| antonello | qualche italiano???? | 14:23 |
| shomon | ok. I didn't descend | 14:24 |

| snimavat | llutz_: ohh | 14:28 |
| snimavat | lemme contact my host | 14:28 |
| Dr_Willis | ibrahim: if you made normal data 'disks' linux should be able to aces the files on them. im not sure how you made a 'backup' cd. since that could mean a lot of things. | 14:29 |
| Dr_Willis | ibrahim: if you put the cd in the driver and look at it.. what files are on it? | 14:29 |

| rsh | yes | 14:32 |

| AbhiJit | i removed previous kernel from synaptic. i updated grub. but still it is showing two kenrel in grub menu | 14:37 |
| AbhiJit | how to remove that previoe kernel completely? | 14:37 |
| AbhiJit | help | 14:37 |
| Dr_Willis | AbhiJit: you are worying way too much about it. | 14:37 |
| ikonia | AbhiJit: in synaptic, how many kernels are showing as installed | 14:38 |
| AbhiJit | Dr_Willis, i just wanted to free space | 14:38 |
| Dr_Willis | AbhiJit: you are not seeing the same kernel twice. once for normal, once for recovery? | 14:38 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, checking.. | 14:38 |
| AbhiJit | Dr_Willis, latest kernel,latestkernlrecovery,old kernel,old kernel recovery | 14:38 |
| Dr_Willis | AbhiJit: if you are so short of space that removeing a kernel helps.. you need to be gettting a bigger hd.. :) | 14:38 |
| AbhiJit | :) | 14:38 |
| Dr_Willis | AbhiJit: its always a good idea to keep at least 1 spare/older kenrnel. | 14:38 |

| AbhiJit | wait | 14:43 |
| ikonia | and it's not changing it, how odd | 14:43 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, while installing the latest updates it installed the latest kernel it asked me that i dont have menu.lst do i want to generate then i said yes | 14:44 |
| Daghdha | thanks | 14:44 |

| === SchmoozzZ is now known as Schmoove | ||

| AbhiJit | ikonia, yes grub2 | 14:45 |

| lehel_ | why i cannot copy in file system it says access denied | 14:45 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, yes | 14:46 |
| llutz_ | lehel_: check permissions | 14:46 |
| ikonia | AbhiJit: ok, so if you look in there, does that match the menu you see on your grub boot screne ? | 14:46 |

| minimec | lehel_: ONly folders where you have permissions to write as normal user is /home/yourname and /tmp | 14:47 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, nope. because in menu.lst it is showing right kernels that is .29 first and then .28. but in real i see .28 and then .27 in grub menu screen | 14:47 |
| epox | I'm trying to edit sysctl.conf but it's coming up read only, i SHOULD know how to change permissions but i can't seem to figure it out.. | 14:47 |

| bastidrazor | !gksudo > ray_ | 14:49 |
| ubottu | ray_, please see my private message | 14:49 |
| llutz_ | AbhiJit: so thats what the boot-menu shows you? | 14:49 |
| minimec | lehel_: You would have to start nautilus with sudo like 'gksudo natilus' (filemanager) or 'sudo cp yourfile /usr/bin' in a console | 14:49 |
| suprengr | ikonia: it would attempt a 'proper' / complete install of grub2 ignoring g1 error | 14:49 |
| AbhiJit | llutz, right | 14:49 |
| minimec | lehel_: nautilus not natilus ;) | 14:49 |

| lehel_ | i want to copy azureus2.jar in /usr/share/java | 14:50 |
| suprengr | ikonia: ok... came in late on this one, sorry to have disturbed | 14:50 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, llutz how to clear this mess? i just wanted to coonfirm that this mess occured due to my saying yes to that create menu.lst? | 14:50 |
| Goliath | hey i use the grub2 framebuffer with "keep" resolution option. Will i gain anything by also usying uvesafb? | 14:51 |
| minimec | lehel_: 'sudo cp azureus2.jar /usr/share/java' | 14:51 |
| xgt001 | hey guys | 14:51 |
| llutz_ | ikonia: i doubt that grub2 install is "proper" | 14:51 |
| xgt001 | can u tell hw to triple boot with ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10 and win 7 | 14:51 |
| ikonia | llutz_: why ? | 14:52 |
| AbhiJit | xgt001, first install windows 7 then 10.04 and then 10.10 | 14:52 |
| lubunturulz | exactly | 14:52 |

| xgt001 | ok nw the problm is twistd | 14:52 |
| llutz_ | ikonia: AbhiJit sees grub2 menu which isn't actually updated, the menu.lst is updated but shouldn't be used at all | 14:52 |
| ikonia | xgt001: grub2 is not a good tool for allowing multiple linux distros to be managed | 14:52 |
| lehel_ | the file is on desktop | 14:52 |

| xgt001 | can i install 10.04 along with 11.04?? | 14:53 |

| xgt001 | i have downloaded many softwares for 11.04 so ... i don wan2 lose it | 14:53 |

| Goliath | ikonia: from what i know grub2 framebuffer sets a resolution on boot and then passes it to the kernel with "keep" option. Would also using uvesafb make switching between ttys and x server faster? | 15:02 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, llutz_ mkanyicy i just chekced synaptic for insatlling grub and i found that grub2 is not installed at all. there is only old grub installed. i think grub2 got remjoved while i was removing old kerrnel | 15:02 |

| ikonia | AbhiJit: intersting, then menu.lst should be used, but you say that is different to what you see on screen | 15:03 |

| Cheery | ubuntu's hardware drivers menu has old drivers so I wonder how do I activate the drivers I download myself | 15:05 |
| BluesKaj | lehel_, try deluge , one set port ranges as high as possible | 15:05 |
| minimec | lehel_: what would that have to do with azureus? This would rather be a firewall thing I guess. | 15:05 |
| AbhiJit | done. now i restart and check. | 15:05 |

| botcity | dub54: what graphics card do you have? | 15:05 |
| schnuffle1 | LuciusMare: ? | 15:05 |
| hros | salve ... I try to install 10.10, but it seems to hang. "pss xf" shows activate-dmraid -> /bin/partman -> 30parted being the last processes ... I have the impression that it hangs because of RAID. but I dont even have RAID in bios ... :-( | 15:05 |
| ikonia | Cheery: the drivers in the ubuntu menu are tried and tested with the kernel | 15:05 |
| lehel_ | i messed the links earlier | 15:06 |
| minimec | lehel_: BluesKaj: I would also consider deluge. It's a good tool. | 15:06 |
| dub54 | botcity: not 100%, just got given the pc today | 15:06 |
| Cheery | ikonia: yea, though what do I do if there's not new drivers in that menu? | 15:06 |
| LuciusMare | schnuffle1: oops, I mislooked, that should have went to eXpLoD | 15:06 |

| schnuffle1 | LuciusMare: you can use the tab to complete names | 15:06 |

| ardian | Hi I did an fresh install of Ubuntu and I used /boot to install grub but it isn't giving me the options to boot | 15:08 |
| ardian | to ubuntu or windows | 15:08 |
| glidr | Cheery: ikonia is correct. | 15:08 |
| AbhiJit | heyyyyyyy ikonia llutz_ llutz Problem solved!!!!!!!!! :) | 15:08 |
| Dr_Willis | ardian: you did install grub to the HD, and not a partition ie: sda vs sda1 | 15:08 |
| ikonia | AbhiJit: do tell | 15:08 |
| hros | can I somehow tell the installer "dont you use RAID!" | 15:08 |
| chiiiiiz | here is what it says when I try to launch conky in a console | 15:08 |
| AbhiJit | now it is showing the right kernels! :) | 15:08 |
| chiiiiiz | http://pastebin.com/D1pmAFuu | 15:08 |
| ikonia | hros: are you installing from the desktop CD ? | 15:08 |
| dub54 | ahh got it now | 15:09 |
| ardian | Dr_Willis: I installed it to sda6 | 15:09 |
| hros | ikonia: I'm installing via USB-stick | 15:09 |
| ardian | But it's just going to windows | 15:09 |
| Dr_Willis | ardian: grub installs the the MBR of thehd.. sda not sda6 | 15:09 |
| ikonia | hros: ok, but is it the desktop CD image ? | 15:09 |
| BluesKaj | lehel_, altho prefer ktorrent sinxe I'm a kde user ..ktorrent also uses less bandwidth than deluge , due deluges' non dynamic auto bandwidth allocation set by the ser | 15:09 |
| bastidrazor | chiiiiiz: you need to give it a .conkyrc file to read. | 15:09 |
| Cheery | glidr: if so, then that list is lagging badly behind and I need to still install drivers myself. | 15:09 |
| ardian | Dr_Willis: Yes but I changed that :( | 15:09 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, llutz_ now i have the latest kernel .29 and .28 and i wanted to remove the .28. so please tell me whats the safest thing to remove from syaptic? there are two things generic,image i think | 15:09 |
| hros | ikonia: I think so | 15:09 |
| chombee_ | I'm wondering what the best option is for creating an encrypted external hard drive to backup my home dir: truecrypt, ecryptfs, dmcrypt... TrueCrypt looks probably easiest, but it has a dodgy license | 15:09 |
| Dr_Willis | !fixgrub | ardian | 15:10 |
| Cheery | glidr: no 260.19.36 drivers that provide opengl4 support. | 15:10 |
| ubottu | ardian: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 15:10 |
| ikonia | Cheery: no you don't, you need to trust the ubuntu developers that they are the best/compatible drivers available | 15:10 |
| glidr | Cheery. Than I guess thats what you will do | 15:10 |

| thauriswulfa | schnuffle1: no | 15:10 |
| glidr | I have learned the hard way | 15:10 |
| lehel_ | the repository-version in Ubuntu is a modified Vuze with additional restrictions and prevents using high ports so i downloaded one from soundforge and would like to copy it manually in file system | 15:10 |
| jolly_xen | or do i just need to know how to use apt-get better | 15:10 |
| glidr | we are just trying to warn you | 15:10 |
| glidr | and help | 15:10 |
| Cheery | ikonia: I think my next install is debian | 15:10 |
| chiiiiiz | I commented all lines that do not work with me (like things related to temp sensors) | 15:10 |
| lehel_ | Blueskaj i will try ktorrent as well | 15:10 |
| ikonia | Cheery: ok, install debian | 15:10 |
| DaGeek247 | jolly_xen you can use 'aptitude' | 15:11 |
| glidr | Cheery: gnome uses debian | 15:11 |
| bastidrazor | chiiiiiz: okay, but just typing conky will not tell it to use that .conkyrc file. you need conky -c /path/to/file.conkyrc | 15:11 |
| hros | ikonia: I guessed "RAID" because the last processes show the script "activate-dmraid" | 15:11 |
| hros | anyway ... | 15:11 |
| BluesKaj | lehel_, correctin : I prefer ktorrent since I'm a kde user ..ktorrent also uses less bandwidth than deluge , due to deluges' non dynamic auto bandwidth allocation set by the user | 15:11 |
| lehel_ | but for now i'm interested why i cannot copy in filesystem, why is my acces denied | 15:11 |

| AbhiJit | ikonia, i told installing grub2 and removing old gurb solved my problem. now i wanted to know the safe way to remove old kernel. which thing to remove ? generic or image? | 15:13 |
| hros | ikonia, I dont have raid at all | 15:13 |
| ikonia | AbhiJit: synaptic is a safe way | 15:13 |
| thauriswulfa | schnuffle1: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:koshi/xfce-4.8 | 15:13 |
| AbhiJit | anyway i removed the generic becaus it was the only thihg there | 15:13 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, yeah i removed it. thanks for you all | 15:13 |
| AbhiJit | brb | 15:14 |
| schnuffle1 | thauriswulfa: and then you did a sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade? | 15:14 |
| thauriswulfa | schnuffle1: no i did, sudo apt-get update | 15:14 |
| minimec | AbhiJit: It always makes sense to have two running kernels. you can savely remove the other images via the synaptic package manager. | 15:14 |
| Sandra-- | Any ideas how to re-add the volume control to the top bar? | 15:14 |
| hros | ikonia, and since I have no raid (I dont even have a bios-option for that), I'm puzzled as why ubiquty would like to call "activate-dmraid" | 15:15 |
| lehel_ | how do i check permision? | 15:15 |

| chiiiiiz | Sandra--: is it not included in the notification-applet? | 15:15 |
| ikonia | hros: no, it's just a bit miss-leading in that it needs raid, | 15:16 |

| schnuffle1 | ardian: don't wat you want to do but find syntax is find /path/were/to/start -name nameoffiletofind | 15:17 |
| hros | ikonia, if it needs raid, but I dont have raid, is that the reason why my installation hangs? | 15:18 |
| ardian | schnuffle1: I don't understand ? | 15:18 |
| Sandra-- | Thanks... resetting was exactly hat I wanted, I just didn't know it existed. | 15:18 |
| schnuffle1 | a | 15:19 |
| schnuffle1 | ardian: you said that you did find /boot/grub/stage1 which will search for any file under the directory and find is not available under grub I think | 15:20 |

| Dr_Willis | dvrcoder: accidently lost stuff befir by mounting things over a directory. :) but never seen a way to get to the stuf without unmountng the fs | 15:23 |
| llutz_ | dvrcoder: maybe unionfs/aufs could do that. | 15:23 |
| Dr_Willis | wolfpack: odd. try from a terminal 'compiz --replace' or 'metacity --replace' and see if it starts working | 15:23 |
| dvrcoder | k, thx, i'll try | 15:24 |

| kexcaliber380864 | how do i do tat???? | 15:29 |
| schnuffle1 | chouchou: so you wrote a script importing the gtk and it said not available? | 15:30 |
| kexcaliber380864 | ubottu??? | 15:30 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | ZacLnxNewb, which program is the most popular ? | 15:30 |
| Dr_Willis | kexcaliber380864: ubottu is a bot. not a person | 15:30 |
| gpc | kexcaliber380864: you should have a new tab named ubottu. click on it | 15:30 |
| schnuffle1 | chouchou: I prefer much more the Qt bindings but thats personal preference | 15:30 |
| systemf1 | 中文如何进入？ | 15:30 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: SSH is by default already installed on linux, and takes no extra software on the computer serving, and is easy to connect to with other computers | 15:31 |
| gpc | !cn | systemf1 | 15:31 |
| ubottu | systemf1: 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 | 15:31 |
| thauriswulfa | schnuffle1: everything screwed now, there is no title bar in any application and moreover , after log in there was no cursor, | 15:31 |
| mkanyicy | wolfpack: did you install or uninstall something? was your system ever worked right before? | 15:31 |
| systemf1 | 谢谢 | 15:31 |
| ZacLnxNewb | ZacLnxNewb: as for FTP, I'm not certain, I don't use FTP on my server | 15:31 |
| chouchou | schnuffle1, please have a look at this . you might have a better understanding | 15:31 |
| chouchou | http://pastebin.com/z6qpKUAd | 15:31 |

| Dr_Willis | kexcaliber380864: do you have an actual ubuntu support question? | 15:32 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: to be exact. | 15:32 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | ZacLnxNewb, I read it already, we all do mistakes :P | 15:32 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | ZacLnxNewb, Thanks! | 15:32 |
| wolfpack | mkanyicy: I was chatiing on chromium browser then suddenly this thing happened | 15:32 |
| DaGeek247 | What is the 'ICE.Authority' file? | 15:32 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: I use a program called "putty" to manage my server from my windows netbook | 15:32 |
| schnuffle1 | thauriswulfa: what happend after the apt-get upgrade? | 15:32 |
| kexcaliber380864 | well i want to know implementation of java programming in linux | 15:32 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: basically, you can login remotely using SSH, you basically do the same thing with the client | 15:32 |
| mkanyicy | wolfpack: have you restarted you computer, at least? | 15:32 |
| Dr_Willis | !java | kexcaliber380864 | 15:32 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: I use Mozilla's "FileZilla" | 15:32 |
| ubottu | kexcaliber380864: To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu on 10.04 LTS and newer, see http://tinyurl.com/2ffg7cc - For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 15:32 |
| wolfpack | mkanyicy: nope | 15:33 |
| schnuffle1 | chouchou: oay you have a project to do but I still cn't figure where your problem is | 15:33 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | ZacLnxNewb, btw, is it possible to use a programs like filezilla client to mange the SSH protocol or the server | 15:33 |
| bastidrazor | ZacLnxNewb: Viper92Z-Linux on the ubuntu side you'll need openssh-server installed in order to connect to the ubuntu machine via ssh | 15:33 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Hello, I'm trying to install mysql on my server, but I can't seem to connect to it remotely. | 15:33 |
| mkanyicy | wolfpack: maybe you should try that first | 15:33 |
| kbrosnan | ZacLnxNewb mozilla does not make filezilla | 15:33 |
| chouchou | yes | 15:33 |
| wolfpack | mkanyicy: I have some files opened and not able to save it | 15:33 |
| chouchou | I have been told I have to create an application that will do that | 15:33 |
| ZacLnxNewb | bastidrazor: Viper92Z-Linux Um,. No? | 15:33 |
| thauriswulfa | schnuffle1: It installed some of new packages from that repo. and removed old xfce now i have xfce4.8 but there is no title bar in applications | 15:33 |
| chouchou | that is the one called fxconsult | 15:33 |
| botcity | dub54: hows the install ? | 15:33 |
| Dr_Willis | ZacLnxNewb: check the mysql configs. it might be set to only allow localhost connections by default | 15:33 |
| schnuffle1 | ZacLnxNewb: open /etc/mysql/my.cnf and look for the listen directive | 15:33 |
| mkanyicy | wolfpack: ok, then, try: ALT+F2 then type 'metacity --replace' | 15:34 |
| minimec | kexcaliber380864: In Ubuntu you will only find the opensource version of JAVA. The closed source version is in the 'partner' repository now. You will have to activate that in the package manager. | 15:34 |
| ZacLnxNewb | schnuffle1: Dr_Willis It's set to 0.0.0.0 for all interfaces | 15:34 |
| schnuffle1 | thauriswulfa: rerun sudo apt-get upgrade to see if everything got updated | 15:34 |
| wolfpack | mkanyicy: No shortcuts are working | 15:34 |
| bastidrazor | ZacLnxNewb: if you're on a server it is already installed. the desktop version it is not. | 15:34 |
| mkanyicy | wolfpack: what is working then? | 15:34 |
| mkanyicy | wolfpack: how are you then chatting now? | 15:34 |
| kexcaliber380864 | well i'm using backtrack | 15:35 |
| thauriswulfa | schnuffle1 , ok | 15:35 |
| wolfpack | justable to chat ion chromium | 15:35 |
| hellguard64 | ubuntu 10.10 can't connect to wi-fi | 15:35 |
| ZacLnxNewb | bastidrazor: Viper92Z-Linux Ah, good point, I have the server version, it's already installed, on the desktop you have to install ssh | 15:35 |
| chouchou | schnuffle1, I first thought I will create a cron job as well as a programm start up option setting | 15:35 |
| chouchou | but it seems I am told to create an applicaton that will allow users to registrer and so on | 15:35 |
| mkanyicy | im afraid you might have to sacrifice your unsaved files | 15:35 |
| ZacLnxNewb | schnuffle1: I'm using 0.0.0.0 to bind my listening port to all interfaces, local host and the network, still no dice in connecting | 15:36 |
| bastidrazor | kexcaliber380864: you should join #backtrack-linux then | 15:36 |
| Dr_Willis | kexcaliber380864: then you should be seeking support in the BackTrack channes. | 15:36 |
| schnuffle1 | chouchou: what means you installed mini server to your desktop | 15:36 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Dr_Willis: I'm using 0.0.0.0 to bind my listening port to all interfaces, local host and the network, still no dice in connecting. | 15:36 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | ZacLnxNewb, so I can't access my SFTP from anywhere without installing the server version or whatever that is. | 15:37 |
| schnuffle1 | ZacLnxNewb: restarted mysql after changing mysql, check for iptables with iptables -L | 15:37 |
| Dr_Willis | ZacLnxNewb: means little to me really. I just recall seeing that security setting in thge mysql book i read/used a few years back. try setting up specific rules to allow the exact ips perhaps. | 15:37 |
| Omen_20 | Hi. I installed Windows 7 to a partition on my drive and now GRUB wont show. What should I do with the live cd to get GRUB to become the boot loader again? | 15:37 |
| chouchou | schnuffle1, currently I have ubuntu running on vmware, I am trying to test what I am doing. what do you mean by a mini server? | 15:37 |
| bastidrazor | Viper92Z-Linux: install openssh-server and you'll be fine using sftp | 15:37 |
| Dr_Willis | !fixgrub > Omen_20 | 15:37 |
| ubottu | Omen_20, please see my private message | 15:37 |
| chouchou | schnuffle1 which application will serve that? do I need to build a new one or ther is already one availble I can download | 15:37 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: I use a linux server for my sharing, thus SSH server is already installed by default, however the DESKTOP version requires you install it. once you have the SSH server software running, it's very easy to connect to it with any SFTP software | 15:37 |
| schnuffle1 | chouchou: I want to be able to login to the unix mini server on my unbuntu free software (server) | 15:38 |
| brandoney | why would my /opt directory be owned by user # 1007 group bin when there is no 1007 in passwd ? And what is a world permission t instead of x? | 15:38 |
| Daghdha | ok | 15:38 |
| mkanyicy | !fixgrub > mkanyicy | 15:38 |
| ubottu | mkanyicy, please see my private message | 15:38 |
| Daghdha | so my MBR/Brub2 is still toast | 15:38 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: and SFTP is supremely safer compared to FTP | 15:38 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | bastidrazor, I want to setup that server and access it from my college when I'm there, but my question is, do I have to install anything on the college's PCs ? | 15:38 |
| Dr_Willis | brandoney: whats in /opt/ ? could be some silly installer script did it. | 15:38 |
| Daghdha | Is there anyway to NOT do it with a GUI based boot DVD/CD? | 15:38 |
| hellguard64 | ubuntu 10.10 can't connect to wi-fi | 15:38 |
| schnuffle1 | chouchou: there are tools like webmin to administer your server | 15:38 |
| kexcaliber380864 | y is it telling i'm banned | 15:38 |
| Daghdha | Because it won't boot into X | 15:38 |
| jrib | brandoney: 1) because someone/something made it that way (it's owned by root by default) and 2) t is sticky bit (man chmod) | 15:38 |
| brandoney | /opt/avg/avg8 | 15:38 |
| chouchou | ok | 15:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Daghdha: if you know the right command line tools.. you can reinstall grub from the cli. | 15:39 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | bastidrazor, or just access the SFTP simply ? | 15:39 |
| schnuffle1 | chouchou: fxconsults is a web app? | 15:39 |
| Dr_Willis | brandoney: sounds like avg installer stuff was a liuttle silly. or it tried tomake some avg user. | 15:39 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: Yes, you would have to at least have a client | 15:39 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: in the case of SSH, I suggest FileZilla, personally. :p | 15:39 |
| chouchou | no, they are calling the applicationo which will be created fxconsults | 15:39 |
| brandoney | avg like the windows antivirus? | 15:39 |
| Daghdha | Does it have to be Ubuntu cli? Because i have a recuecd but it's gentoo based | 15:40 |
| chouchou | schnuffle1, I learnt webmin is like cpanel right? | 15:40 |
| Dr_Willis | AVG (the anti virus companby) has a linux client yes. | 15:40 |
| kexcaliber380864 | ????????????// | 15:40 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | Thanks ZacLnxNewb, I'm working on it atm. | 15:40 |
| bastidrazor | Viper92Z-Linux: on the ubuntu machine, type in a terminal: sudo apt-get install openssh-server ,that is all that needs to be done to the ubuntu machine. | 15:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Daghdha: it would be best if its a ubuntu distro | 15:40 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: Feel free to ask me. :p | 15:40 |
| kexcaliber380864 | y is it telling i'm banned | 15:40 |
| bastidrazor | kexcaliber380864: ask in #freenode | 15:40 |
| Dr_Willis | kexcaliber380864: we have no controll of other channels.. its proberly saying you need tobe registered. | 15:40 |
| schnuffle1 | chouchou: yes a bit like that, so you want people to login to your server, which protocoll should they use? SSH, telnet .... | 15:40 |
| OerHeks | kexcaliber380864, join #freenode for questions about ban | 15:41 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: In FileZilla, you would connect with SFTP by going to "FILE" - > "SITE MANAGER" and you would connect in there with SFTP | 15:41 |
| chouchou | hmm, the guy wasn't' clear | 15:41 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | ZacLnxNewb, I already used FileZilla a lot of my Windows machine, I'm familiar with it | 15:41 |
| chouchou | I believe it will be either SSH or web interfacee | 15:41 |
| schnuffle1 | Viper92Z-Linux: be aware that with ssh not only file transfer is activated but login as well | 15:41 |
| Ddorda | does anyone use TP-Link TL-WN321G on ubuntu and can confirm it works? | 15:41 |
| kexcaliber380864 | thank | 15:41 |
| brandoney | hmmm, I guess I might have installed that a long time ago and don't remember. Thanks, I will read man sticky bit now. As always, the most well supported OS ever!!!!!!!! | 15:41 |
| chouchou | schnuffle1, probably, SSH or web interface, because he said it will be installed on his ubuntu PC | 15:42 |
| schnuffle1 | chouchou: You should sort out a more precise plan of what you want to achieve | 15:42 |
| wiiguy | is there a way a user can only write 777 files ? | 15:42 |

| ubottu | wiiguy: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 15:43 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Dr_Willis: Ip tables shows nothing, I'm not familar with this program | 15:43 |
| Daghdha | ubuntu rescue remix? | 15:43 |
| schnuffle1 | wiiguy: no or you use acl and give special acls to that user | 15:43 |
| ZacLnxNewb | schnuffle1: I'm not familar with ip tables, but it doesn't show anything useful it seems. >.> | 15:43 |
| jrib | wiiguy: why would you do such a silly thing? | 15:43 |
| BigGreenCanoe | Good morning. I seem to have lost my wireless capability. | 15:43 |
| schnuffle1 | hm | 15:43 |
| epox | My download speeds are about 1/10th of what they should be on Ubuntu.. my upload speeds are great. Anybody experienced with this can help me? | 15:43 |
| chouchou | schnuffle1, I think webmin will do the job | 15:43 |
| chouchou | let me try it | 15:43 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | ZacLnxNewb, but I used to access my FTP from the college just by typing my IP or when I wanted authenticated access I just typed User@myIPgoeshere..that's it then type the user's password | 15:43 |
| llutz_ | !wembmin > chouchou | 15:44 |

| Dr_Willis | chouchou: webmin is not really supported under ubuntu. thers alternatives | 15:44 |
| Dr_Willis | chouchou: best to learn to do tings via ssh. :_) | 15:44 |
| BigGreenCanoe | could someone tell me what I need to install/reinstall please. | 15:44 |
| chouchou | ok | 15:44 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: FTP is very insecure, most people here hate it, SSH is very easy to install and get going, and just as easy to connect to. | 15:44 |
| meteor | hi i need help to install broadcom wireless drivers on my laptop with ubuntu someone please help me | 15:44 |
| schnuffle1 | chouchou: I second that, if youll in charge learn your way around the console | 15:44 |

| epox | bastidrazor: not using torrents, using dslreports and speedtest.net, i am sitting next to a windows machine getting way better download speeds. | 15:45 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: and honestly, FTP servers have been a pain in my ass to try and setup | 15:45 |
| Dr_Willis | BigGreenCanoe: perhaps the sta driver, or the bcm driver packages. they may be listed in system -> admin >> adational drivers | 15:45 |

| Dr_Willis | m_fulder: and dont use the close button :) that can kill background apps. | 15:46 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | ZacLnxNewb, Dr_Willis : alright I'm trying to get SSH working | 15:46 |
| wiiguy | thsi is not rly ubuntu releated but since ubuntu is linux i thought i couldo ask here | 15:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Daghdha: alt-ctrl-f1 gets to the consoles. | 15:46 |
| smiley7 | why does ubuntu have spyware? | 15:46 |

| g_0_0 | bindi, ah :) | 15:51 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 15:51 |
| nemetos | oh the joy of installing a printer without any avaiable drivers.. | 15:51 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | ZacLnxNewb, done! | 15:51 |
| smiley7 | and it dont do it with windows | 15:51 |
| Viper92Z-Linux | ZacLnxNewb, I want to make the server home and certain shared folders that's my question | 15:52 |
| kexcaliber380864 | g | 15:52 |
| smiley7 | so it must be uploading or downloading somthing | 15:52 |
| schnuffle1 | !samba | Viper92Z-Linux | 15:52 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: You can do that by assigning sharing permission to the folders/directories you wish | 15:52 |
| ubottu | Viper92Z-Linux: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 15:52 |
| smiley7 | any ideas ? | 15:53 |
| ZacLnxNewb | Viper92Z-Linux: On the machine itself, you can dictate users and permissions, and you can login remotely and view/download/upload to the file tree with the client | 15:53 |

| brandoney | I also get avg85flx isn't available for this type of computer, but it listed it as installed before clicking uninstall. | 15:54 |
| smiley7 | i wish ubuntu had a netstat command | 15:54 |
| schnuffle1 | smiley7: it has | 15:54 |
| llutz_ | smiley7: apt-get install netstat | 15:54 |
| smiley7 | cool | 15:55 |
| llutz_ | smiley7: apt-cache search <pattern> | 15:55 |
| m_fulder | aha will try that on schnuffle1 & bastidrazor | 15:55 |
| smiley7 | whats that last command? | 15:55 |
| wolfpack | Dr_Willis: After hard restart .. thinks are working properly. | 15:55 |
| llutz_ | smiley7: to search for stuff | 15:55 |
| llutz_ | smiley7: apt-cache search netstat instead of "i wish ubuntu had netstat" :) | 15:56 |
| m_fulder | schnuffle1 & bastidrazor, still closed :S | 15:56 |
| schnuffle1 | m_fulder: not realy shure what you want to do but you can use nohup to ignore signals | 15:57 |
| smiley7 | i have had the browser open all morning...so when i close it,its really going to start uploading,or downloading. | 15:57 |
| erUSUL | isn't netstat installed by default ? | 15:58 |
| jrib | erUSUL: that's what I thought | 15:58 |
| g_0_0 | erUSUL, yes it's installed by default | 15:59 |
| schnuffle1 | m_fulder: where do you press crtl-c ? when te gnome-terminal has the focus? | 15:59 |
| erUSUL | was more of a retoric question but thanks g_0_0 | 16:00 |
| erUSUL | :) | 16:00 |

| schnuffle1 | m_fulder: okay, let me test something | 16:06 |
| llutz_ | smiley7: read " man netstat " for options | 16:06 |
| m_fulder | schnuffle1, oki : | 16:06 |

| jrib | Elgar1: here: http://www.jolicloud.com/support | 16:07 |
| Elgar1 | I'm sure its essentially the same just with a GUI | 16:07 |
| Elgar1 | different GUI | 16:08 |
| rufsketch1 | Hello everyone. I tried to install grub from livecd using grub install. It sort of worked, in that I now have a grub terminal when I boot, but it doesn't give me any systems to boot into. what did I miss? | 16:08 |
| gpc | Elgar1: We are sure we don't support jolicloud. use the support options provided at the link jrib gave you. | 16:08 |
| WierdAAR | Does anybody have any idea why nothing work in fullscreen on my computer? | 16:09 |
| smiley7 | anyone know how to remove the envelope icon beside the clock? | 16:09 |
| gpc | smiley7: right click and remove it | 16:09 |

| Elgar1 | dude, do you know what jolicloud support is like? I dont use that and never will cause I'll never get ar reply. | 16:09 |
| hellguard64 | ubuntu 10.10 can't connect to wi-fi | 16:09 |
| Dr_Willis | smiley7: that will remove the notification icon tray - you will lose the volme icon also | 16:09 |
| rufsketch1 | can anyone help? | 16:10 |

| Dr_Willis | Elgar1: Jolicloud has 'issues' :) ive tried it.. | 16:10 |
| smiley7 | damn,i just did...well i guess i will put it back... | 16:10 |
| Dr_Willis | rufsketch1: you folloded the grub reinstall guides? | 16:10 |
| Dr_Willis | !fixgrub | 16:10 |
| ubottu | grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 16:10 |
| Elgar1 | @willis hmmm? | 16:11 |
| rufsketch1 | Dr_Willis: I tried that one but it wasn't working for me at all | 16:11 |
| rufsketch1 | grub-install doesn't take two mountpoints as a valid argument | 16:12 |
| Dr_Willis | rufsketch1: the guides ive seen have about 5 differnt ways to reinstall grub - depening on th eexacxt issue. | 16:12 |
| rufsketch1 | Dr_Willis: I'm going to try that once more in case I made a mistake, and let you know | 16:12 |
| Dr_Willis | it pays to read up and learn grub2-kungfu skills :) | 16:13 |
| smiley7 | linux mint dont have the envelope icon...but still does have the volume icon | 16:13 |
| Elgar1 | wow, no replies at #jolicloud, can someone please get over their self and help? | 16:13 |
| Dr_Willis | smiley7: thers some pacakge you can remove to totally remove it.. but i dont bother | 16:13 |
| rufsketch1 | Dr_Willis: haha. I wish I had the time. I'm taking 9 classes this semester. And I'm not exagerating -_- | 16:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Elgar1: Jolicloud has forums also. but last i checked their fiorums were not that heavly populated either. | 16:14 |
| gpc | Elgar1: if jolicloud can't support their OS what makes you think we can. We do not support it. Please stop asking. | 16:14 |
| kaddi | is ubuntu using the ntfs fuse driver or the native kernel module for ntfs by default? For example when i do a sudo mount -t ntfsd /dev/sda2 /media/win | 16:14 |
| Dr_Willis | kaddi: its using ntfs-3g | 16:14 |
| kaddi | ah, k | 16:14 |
| tehbaut | DVD Movie Backup isn't picking up my optical drive... any ideas why? | 16:14 |
| bazhang | tehbaut, what s the software | 16:14 |
| Elgar1 | forget I managed jolicloud, please walk me through steps as if I was using ubuntu, Please. | 16:14 |
| schnuffle1 | m_fulder: what does your script do? | 16:15 |
| rufsketch1 | tehbaut: does k3b pick it up? | 16:15 |
| bazhang | Elgar1, for wine? | 16:15 |
| Elgar1 | yes. | 16:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Elgar1: fire up the package manager, install wine.. there ya go. | 16:15 |
| bazhang | Elgar1, #winehq after checking the appdb | 16:15 |
| bazhang | !appdb > Elgar1 | 16:15 |
| ubottu | Elgar1, please see my private message | 16:15 |
| m_fulder | schnuffle1, it starts up a dedicated server | 16:15 |
| tehbaut | bazhang: DVD Movie Backup is the software | 16:15 |
| Elgar1 | @ubottu sure | 16:15 |
| bazhang | tehbaut, what is the package name | 16:16 |
| tehbaut | rufsketch1: is that something else I have to install? | 16:16 |
| bazhang | tehbaut, this is from the ubuntu repos? | 16:16 |
| tehbaut | bazhang: no idea, I got it from the software installer | 16:16 |
| schnuffle1 | m_fulder: wouldn't it be better to write a upstart script to start the daemon? | 16:16 |
| rufsketch1 | tehbaut: k3b is program that can create backups of discs. I just wanted to know if it recognized your optical drive. | 16:16 |
| tehbaut | bazhang: Ubuntu Software Center | 16:16 |
| rufsketch1 | if it does, then it might be a bug in the program you mentioned | 16:16 |
| smiley7 | im just running out of room on the tray | 16:16 |
| bazhang | tehbaut, then try something else, I personally find ogmrip to be very good | 16:16 |
| tehbaut | rufsketch1: I never instealled it, is it built in? | 16:16 |
| m_fulder | schnuffle1, upstart script? ... the thing is I already have an upstart script ... but I get like 20 of them and its not that cool to open up al 20 by myself .. so instead Im looping throught all my scripts and starting them up automaticly | 16:17 |
| Intersecret935 | <Yugo@unknown-net> hgfhf - | 16:18 |

| Elgar1 | wine is a linux program, is it not? Does wine even have irc? | 16:20 |
| bazhang | Elgar1, yes, as I have told you #winehq | 16:20 |
| compdoc | wine lets you run some windows programs in linux | 16:20 |
| llutz_ | smiley7: syncing, writingn logs etc.pp | 16:20 |
| smiley7 | whats that command ? | 16:21 |
| llutz_ | smiley7: thats no command, just stuff running in background | 16:21 |

| ikonia | mman: what are you trying to install | 16:23 |
| edbian | ikonia, I just need to see how the cd-rom drives are set up. Do you have 2 cd-rom drives? | 16:23 |
| Darius_Xubuntu | ok anyone here using xubuntu? | 16:23 |

| smiley7 | i would delete windows xp if i new how to install stuff in ubuntu.. | 16:24 |
| edbian | ikonia, can you please tell me what is in your /media? | 16:24 |
| llutz_ | !manual | smiley7 | 16:24 |

| ikonia | edbian: no, as it will be different for each user, as I've said | 16:24 |
| edbian | smiley7, sudo apt-get install <stuff> | 16:24 |
| edbian | ikonia, How will it be different? Can you post yours so I can see the differences? | 16:24 |
| smiley7 | i ment install from "source" | 16:25 |
| ikonia | edbian: no, it will be different as the contents are generated from the CD's int he drives | 16:25 |
| ikonia | !info microdc2 | 16:25 |
| ubottu | microdc2 (source: microdc2): A command-line based Direct Connect client. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.15.6-1 (maverick), package size 149 kB, installed size 392 kB | 16:25 |
| edbian | ikonia, what if you have nothing in the drives? What should the folder look like? | 16:25 |
| ikonia | smiley7: you don't need to build it from source | 16:25 |
| ikonia | smiley7: just install it from the package manager, the package name is microdc2 | 16:25 |
| ikonia | edbian: then the CD drives won't be mounted | 16:25 |
| edbian | ikonia, I ask because if I put a e.g. ubuntu live CD in one of my drives I cannot open / mount it | 16:25 |
| edbian | ikonia, If the drives are empty then the /media folder should be empty? I believe there is a cdrom symlink or something | 16:26 |
| mman | ikonia, forgot to update the repo | 16:26 |
| mman | thaks | 16:26 |
| smiley7 | this is what i want to install... http://www.secretmaryo.org/ | 16:26 |
| ikonia | edbian: if the drives are empty, /media won't have a cd point bellow it | 16:26 |
| edbian | ikonia, So I can safely remove all of the cdrom folders in /media? | 16:27 |
| ikonia | edbian: yes, they should be created at mount time | 16:27 |

| m_fulder | schnuffle1, the startup script? or the one starting gnome-terminal? | 16:29 |
| Dr_Willis | edbian: no disk in drive -= no dir in /media/ | 16:29 |

| jimlovell777 | I have a directory full of other directories, each one containing a different iteration of a web site I run. I'm trying to streamline and make my life easier. Is there an automated way to save one copy of each file and then a history of the changes? | 16:30 |
| edbian | Dr_Willis, Well my system has 2 drives there at all times both named | 16:30 |
| edbian | Dr_Willis, sorry, both named, 'CD/DVD Drive' If I put media in one of my drives (the black one) it works perfectly. It's automatically mounted and the icon in computer changes, and I can double click it to open it again. The other drive though, (the white one) doesn't work at all. | 16:31 |
| jimlovell777 | *on the files that already exist too, not just new changes from today forward. | 16:31 |
| schnuffle1 | m_fulder: yes | 16:32 |
| Darius_Xubuntu | ikonia but its possible to ask the xubuntu question in here? | 16:32 |
| Dr_Willis | edbian: see if theres an incorrect entry in /etc/fstab for the 2nd drive. | 16:32 |
| Dr_Willis | edbian: a optical drive shouldent need an entry in fstab. ive seen the installer get confused and add one however | 16:32 |
| edbian | Dr_Willis, Do I need entries in /etc/fstab at all? I have them commented out | 16:32 |
| jose | i need help over the installation de opendldap in ubuntu server 10.04 | 16:33 |

| NixGeek | Kath: okay, lets go into pm really fast | 16:36 |
| Kath | ok | 16:36 |
| Dr_Willis | amit: ibve not needed to mess with the kernel in 5+ years.. so i have to suggest 'google' :) | 16:36 |
| Dr_Willis | !kernel | 16:36 |
| ubottu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 16:36 |
| Leadfoot | speaking of kernels | 16:37 |
| Leadfoot | are the i386 kernels required if you are running x64? | 16:37 |
| self | q всем | 16:37 |
| alen_ | sorry guys but how can i found "device manager" on Ubuntu :( | 16:37 |
| schnuffle1 | Leadfoot: i386 is 32bit on 64bit you can run both | 16:37 |
| amit | thanx Dr_willis | 16:38 |
| Darius_Xubuntu | any ideas? | 16:38 |
| Leadfoot | right, but I've my machine is 64bit and it's running the 64bit kernel, do I need the 32bit kernels be to installed? | 16:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Leadfoot: i never noticed you being able to have them installed... | 16:38 |
| mkanyicy | Darius_Xubuntu: what's the problem? | 16:38 |
| Dr_Willis | i would think the package manager would warn you. | 16:39 |
| amit | Dr_willis: can u plz suggest me some good topic for my minor project ,plz m confused what to make for my project | 16:39 |
| Darius_Xubuntu | i need help with resolution after installing xubuntu desktop 4.8.1 now im stuck on 1024.768 how to adjust it more than that like 1280.1024? | 16:39 |
| Line_ | hello i used sudo modprobe ppp-compress-18 and now after a restart i have lost internet, how can i disable ppp-compress-18? | 16:39 |
| Dr_Willis | amit: i have no idea what your project is or about.. im not doing your homework | 16:39 |
| schnuffle1 | Leadfoot: If your system works, why should you need it? | 16:39 |
| mkanyicy | alen_: what do you want to see? | 16:39 |
| rufsketch1 | Dr_Willis: I tried the instructions given in the link and I still get a grub shell instead of a grub menu | 16:40 |
| erUSUL | Line_: modprobe is not permanent | 16:40 |
| rufsketch1 | Dr_Willis: the link says this happens when you use the Grub2 Install where the Grub legacy install would have been appropriate. But my Grub version is 1.98. So I assume that quite clearly makes it Grub2 | 16:40 |
| Leadfoot | perhaps it safer to keep them, in case of any 32bit software packages I may need to install later | 16:40 |
| Dr_Willis | rufsketch1: theres like 5 differnt ways to install grub. try one of the other ways. or you are doing somthing wrong like having grub files on a raid partition. | 16:40 |
| erUSUL | Line_: do « lsmod | grep compress » | 16:40 |
| mkanyicy | Darius_Xubuntu: i dont know xubuntu 'man xrandr' | 16:40 |
| alen_ | i attached my sony video camera, but there is no reaction here | 16:40 |
| alen_ | lol | 16:40 |
| sacarlson | amit: if you want a project build me a texas holdem poker site run with java with money accounting in mysql in 3 currency | 16:41 |
| alen_ | i m using usb cabel | 16:41 |
| Line_ | erUSUL: oh really? i performed that command, did a restart and now i cannot ssh to the machine and the machine cannot ping google.com or anything | 16:41 |
| rufsketch1 | Dr_Willis: I have tried two of the ways so far. Can you give me more information about what I might be doing wrong? | 16:41 |
| Darius_Xubuntu | mkanyicy thanks even for that :) | 16:41 |
| Dr_Willis | rufsketch1: i would have to say check the trouble shooting parts of the grub2 wiki and the forumn 'grub starters guide' post | 16:41 |

When I look in the sound setting it tells me that I only have a "dummy output" but lspci tells me I have a sound device. Can any body tell me the solution for this problem | 17:03 |
| the100BiLL | or at least give me a link, because I couldn't find any solution that work for me. Some how i think it has to do somthing with the network manager because it just disabled the network its self yesterday and I had to enable it again | 17:03 |

| juhaon | Do you know any screen recorder that doesn't record as .ogg? I want to upload my video to youtube but it doesn't accept .ogg files | 17:28 |
| alzamabar | LjL, I tried to edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf but again the /etc/resolv.conf gets recreated | 17:28 |
| LjL | alzamabar: you need to specify your DNS in some dhcp-related file i forget the name of, instead. or get rid of resolvconf. | 17:28 |
| Simisu | Dr_willies: what is grub? i will probably be using windows to partition the drive... | 17:28 |
| H3r0 | anyone? | 17:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Simisu: grub is the bootloader that gives you the menus. | 17:28 |
| alzamabar | LjL, how do I get rid of resolveconf? | 17:28 |
| Simisu | ah | 17:29 |
| Simisu | ok | 17:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Simisu: theres no need to use windows to partition the hd. if its to be all linux. | 17:29 |
| LjL | alzamabar, sudo apt-get remove resolvconf, but note that's not supported or anything and could cause trouble. i personally have removed it and network-manager because they get on my nerves, but it's really not recommended | 17:29 |
| puppy | Dr-willies; but I dont want to use net | 17:29 |

| dragonkeeper | Simisu if you install windows after linux you will need to restore the bootloader | 17:29 |
| Dr_Willis | puppy: unplug the nic i gues.. or check the pograms docs.. it may hae an option. | 17:29 |
| puppy | I want this cd to be used in a computer without net | 17:30 |
| m2rt | Anyone knows an FFmpeg alternative? I need to make snapshots of a video after some interval in seconds. The library should work with python... Or very easy to use in c++ | 17:30 |
| Simisu | dr willies: nope not all linux... i'm hoping to be able to dual boot each computer with windows and the extrnal HD containing linux | 17:30 |
| Krank | How do I unmount an extra internal hard drive? | 17:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Simisu: but he external HD is all linux or not? | 17:30 |
| alzamabar | LjL, the DNS name resolution now doesn't work in my server because it has the wrong entries in /etc/resolv.conf. Any ideas on how to edit the entries manually so that these don't get overwritten (except from removing resolvconf)? | 17:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Krank: sudo umount /media/MOUNTPOINT is one way | 17:30 |

| LjL | alzamabar: you could always try making /etc/resolv.conf -w for everybody (chmod a-w /etc/resolv.conf) after editing it | 17:31 |
| Simisu | Dr_willies: i guess so... i won't put windows on it, and i might make two partitions for the possibility to play with two different linux... | 17:31 |
| alzamabar | LjL, this seems a great idea. I'm going to try straight away! | 17:31 |
| Gnea | puppy: have you read the aptoncd documentation? | 17:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Simisu: You proberly want to make a / paittion and a /home partition, and a swap partition. | 17:32 |
| Simisu | and that's using linux? are these different then the "normal" windows partitions? | 17:33 |

| Dr_Willis | raykid: the documets may be outdated.. x auto configures for the most part these days | 17:35 |

| Chris01 | Hello, Does anyone know an external 2.5",USB 2.0/3.0 hard drive that can be formated with XFS? | 17:36 |
| pietr101 | LinuxNoob: good day to you too! | 17:36 |
| LinuxNoob | xfs? | 17:36 |
| Chris01 | yes | 17:36 |
| raykid | Dr_Willis, i know but my card is fairly new and not detected properly. The documentary mentions my card and says i should edit xorg.conf. Can i apply manual settings elsewhere? | 17:36 |
| LinuxNoob | whats xfs | 17:36 |
| Simisu | Dr_Willies: now i'm starting to get it... good... so basically the installation will take care of it for me... so how much space should i dedicate for linux? are 30GB ok? | 17:36 |
| ikonia | Chris01: same way as any other disk, use the disk tool gparted, select xfs and select the disk | 17:36 |
| pragma_ | Why would any drive not be able to be formatted with a filesystem? | 17:36 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: a file system | 17:37 |
| puppy | gnea: this also: http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net/doc-manual.html | 17:37 |
| LinuxNoob | extension file system? | 17:37 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: no, a file system | 17:37 |
| Gnea | puppy: try this one: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/APTonCD | 17:37 |
| LinuxNoob | im not familiar with xfs x_x | 17:37 |
| Chris01 | XFS file system | 17:37 |
| LinuxNoob | thats why im askin :D | 17:37 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: then don't worry about it | 17:37 |
| amalgama | i would like to add windows 7 to my ubuntu-only laptop (damn gaming industry).. i decided that the best way to go is format with windows and then ubuntu.. is there a way to install the programs i already have, again, without doing it one by one? | 17:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Im not sure you would want xfs on a usbvhd. | 17:37 |
| Dr_Willis | !clone | amalgama | 17:38 |
| ubottu | amalgama: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 17:38 |
| Chris01 | I have an A DATA 16GB flash drive that can't be formated with XFS | 17:38 |

| Dr_Willis | Chris01: why do you want to use XFS on a flash drive anyway? | 17:38 |
| Chris01 | so this is the reason I am asking | 17:38 |

| frimend | How do I use this "use custom command" feature? | 17:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Chris01: xfs with somthiung like mythbuntu is so it can be faster at deleting Lots of little files (i rcall) not really going to be an issue with 16gb flash drives. | 17:40 |

| Simisu | i want to install ubuntu on an external HD and i'm wondering if it would be possible to use this drive with two different computers or not (two laptops, each laptop boots into windows right now) is this possible or would it only work with one laptop? is it just a questions of configuring the computers to dual boot or it's more complicated then that? thanks in advance!!! | 17:46 |
| bazhang | LinuxNoob, lets keep chit chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please , here is support only | 17:46 |
| LinuxNoob | simisu: very possible | 17:46 |

| Diamondcite | Simisu: Linux can be installed onto a USB HDD (Full install) and it should work, especially if they are intel graphics. | 17:47 |
| LinuxNoob | will let u make a bootable copy of ubuntu or any other program u like, and u just restart and boot from usb. or wubi to run an instance from windows desktop. | 17:47 |

| Simisu | thanks a lot... this is very exciting :O) | 17:48 |
| Diamondcite | Simisu: The reason I say Intel Graphics because if you need the closed source ATI or Nvidia drivers, X might be configured to only handle that one. | 17:48 |
| raykid | bazhang, well i dont have nvidia currently, but my problem is not that i dont know how to make one, i need ubuntu to use one first | 17:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Krank: edit the /etc/fstab and tell it to not mount the hd in the first place. | 17:48 |
| Gnea | Chris01: what is the exact thing you typed out in the terminal? | 17:48 |
| LinuxNoob | yeah my laptop has nvidea drivers, it was a pain to run ubuntu as its primary os. | 17:48 |

| Dr_Willis | LinuxNoob: other then needing 'nomodeset' initially. ive had very few issues with the actual droivers.. and the nomodeset is not really a 'driver' issue.. its a kernel type issue | 17:50 |

| LinuxNoob | dr: thats what i had to do, but im a first time linux user so it took me awhile :D | 17:52 |
| tzaeru | 9.10 | 17:52 |
| Chris01 | by using Disk utility | 17:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Chris01: try gparted.. and be sure you got the xfs packages installed. | 17:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Chris01: or try via he command line | 17:52 |
| Simisu | dr_Willis: ture but my computer is so old and tired i don't want to put anything on it... either way i know that with a 1TB drive i don't need to worry for dedicating a whole partition for that no? :O) wish me luck | 17:53 |

| Dr_Willis | zookalicious: ive seen exernal usb and inernals the same prices on sale also. | 17:56 |
| zookalicious | Dr_Willis- Ahhhhh that'd be why. Sorry I thought you ment internal drives and I find the 2 TB internals are a tad overpriced right now :) | 17:56 |
| delinquentme | and when im trying to copy a id_rsa.pub file from a machine im sshed into ... and " cp " it from the machine im connected to .. to the machine im using ... the command would be " cp id_rsa.pub XXXX | 17:56 |
| zookalicious | Dr_Willis- Clearly I need to look harder then | 17:56 |
| Dr_Willis | zookalicious: it pays to watch the sale papers. Right now my big issue is if i upgrade to a bigger hd.. copying 1+TB over usb to a 2tb usbhd.. that takes like.. all day. :) | 17:57 |

| john___ | Hi, I'd like to know if there is any way to change the trash icon with a custom one | 17:57 |
| === squishy is now known as SquishyNotHere | ||
| zookalicious | Dr_Willis - Year I was about to say, too bad most dont support USB 3.0 yet | 17:57 |
| john___ | without changing the whole iconset | 17:57 |
| Dr_Willis | zookalicious: Ive had issues with the external sata also. never can seem to get it working right. | 17:58 |
| zookalicious | Dr_Willis - Could always remove the drive from inside the casing and just plug it directly into the mobo :P | 17:58 |

| john___ | Hi, I'd like to know if there is any way to change the trash icon with a custom one without changing the whole iconset | 17:59 |
| Diamondcite | Dr_Willis: Won't 2 computers over gigabit ethernet be faster then? | 18:00 |
| zookalicious | Diamondcite - He's using external drives | 18:00 |
| bonjoyee | Diamondcite: but still.. the speed of the hdd is the bottleneck! | 18:01 |
| Diamondcite | zookalicious: That's why I mentioned it.. 1 system would read only, the other write only. | 18:01 |
| zookalicious | john___ what icon set are you using? | 18:01 |
| === xander is now known as xandercrewe | ||
| john___ | Not a specific one | 18:01 |
| john___ | anyone | 18:01 |
| john___ | I just want to change only the trash icon | 18:01 |
| Simisu | So looking now at the link Gnea gave me i can see that i can't find the make of my laptop on the list... should a worry? | 18:02 |
| john___ | and keep the others untouched | 18:02 |
| Simisu | should I worry that is... | 18:02 |
| zookalicious | john___ navigate to your icon folder "/usr/share/icons/[themename]" and change the icon there | 18:02 |
| zookalicious | you just have to put in a new icon with the same name as the old one | 18:02 |
| an0key | Does anyone know of a PPA for Evolution unstable, i.e. 2.9+? | 18:02 |
| zookalicious | and same file type I beleive | 18:02 |
| Diamondcite | Simisu: If you try to boot a LiveCD or LiveUSB first, it'll give you a good idea how well it would work | 18:02 |
| john___ | I;d also like to leave the iconset untouched | 18:02 |
| zookalicious | john___ Just be sure to change it in all the folders. There are several different folders for the different sizes of icon (32x32 48x48 scaleable) | 18:03 |
| john___ | for future use.. | 18:03 |
| zookalicious | john___ just rename the old trash icon, so it wont be deleted | 18:03 |
| Simisu | Diamondcite: thanks, i guess it makes sense to try that first! | 18:03 |
| len | Greetings. | 18:03 |
| zookalicious | john___ if you ever need to change it back, you still have the icon. Just fix the name to get the old one back | 18:03 |
| Diamondcite | Simisu: Just.. it's going to be quite a bit slower. | 18:03 |
| john___ | Then I have to do it again to go back | 18:03 |

| dualMoon | I have a VPS running Ubuntu 10.04. I've inadvertantly lost my ssh daemon and so the only access I have is to the Parallels power panel, which gives me access to the filesystem but not to any sort of console. Is there a way to inject an apt-get install to reinstall the SSH daemon into a startup script somewhere? | 18:47 |
| bindi | eh | 18:47 |
| LinuxNoob | i also dont know why i have so many partitions, but they dont bug me.. | 18:47 |
| Simisu | so should i make it smaller then? like 20? | 18:47 |
| v0lksman | why would my mic sometimes work and sometimes not? just using the Sound option in Preferences... | 18:47 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: what do you need to know? | 18:47 |
| LinuxNoob | dualmoon: do you have a usb stick? | 18:47 |
| bindi | yeah zookalicious i did that | 18:47 |
| evanescent | how do I reset the appearance on ubuntu 10.10 to the default. my computer froze and after the reboot the icons, etc. are all different. | 18:47 |
| bindi | no go | 18:47 |
| Encry8 | How do you rebuild the locate db? | 18:47 |
| Jordan_U | Simisu: What do you lose by making it larger? | 18:48 |

| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp: a lot of my jack programs crash upon opening | 18:48 |
| dualMoon | LinuxNoob, I don't have physical access to the machine. It's a VPS | 18:48 |
| schnuffle1 | Simisu: Depends on your ue case, about 5GB are enough for the system, the rest is for you to use | 18:48 |
| v0lksman | Encry8, updatedb I think | 18:48 |
| Encry8 | thats it thanks | 18:48 |
| LinuxNoob | dualmoon: so what are u running the vm in? winxp? | 18:48 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: have you tried running them from a terminal, so you can see if they produce an error? | 18:48 |
| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp: as well as lmms | 18:48 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: chances are it's throwing an xrun and dying | 18:48 |

| zookalicious | bindi - when you log in, choose Unity as your Session (right before you enter your password on the bottom of the creen) | 18:48 |
| zookalicious | screen* | 18:48 |
| bindi | ... | 18:48 |

| bindi | did you not read | 18:48 |
| LinuxNoob | you should be able to treat a vm, the same as a stand alone desktop | 18:49 |

| zookalicious | bindi - then you did't add the repository properly. Also there is no reason to be rude, you're not going to get any help that way. | 18:49 |
| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp: how do i find out the command to run the programs in terminal | 18:49 |
| Simisu | well.... i don't know... making choices is complicated these days :O/ | 18:49 |
| dub54 | if I just installed some stuff in the package manager, can I undo all the changes I just did ? | 18:49 |
| dub54 | \ | 18:49 |

| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: open a terminal, type the name of the program you want to run | 18:49 |
| LinuxNoob | mikemmike1: go to terminal and type man man | 18:49 |

| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp: did you read it? | 18:55 |
| zookalicious | bindi - im assuming you want the 11.04 alpha of unity, not the old netbook version. http://techie-buzz.com/foss/ubuntu-unity-2d-install.html | 18:55 |
| dualMoon | bindi, don't feel bad. once upon a time #ubuntu was a magical place where people would help and knew lots, nowadays it's mostly people whose only response will be "google it you noob". no offense to the people here who still follow the old #ubuntu way ofc | 18:55 |
| gpc | bindi: unless I am mistaken unity is not available in 10.04 | 18:55 |
| a1234567890 | 2132-3313false config2 tty113113214654- -.- | 18:55 |
| zookalicious | bindi - and I'm on other channels to. If you said earlier that you had already done those I didn't see | 18:55 |
| gpc | dualMoon: we don't tell people to google it or call them noobs. Please keep your misinformation to yourself | 18:56 |
| dub54 | how do I install lamp-server on 10.10 ? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP says up to 10.04 you can do sudo taskel install lamp-server | 18:56 |
| dualMoon | gpc, oh come now, I've been around long enough to see it happen ;) | 18:56 |
| erUSUL | dub54: and the same does not work in 10.10 ? | 18:57 |
| zookalicious | dualMoon - I never told him to google it. Nor did I ever call him a "noob" | 18:57 |
| dub54 | erUSUL: taskel command not found | 18:57 |
| bindi | zookalicious: whats this 2D about | 18:57 |
| dub54 | erUSUL: sorry, misread | 18:57 |
| erUSUL | dub54: install it | 18:57 |
| bindi | im sure i want the prettier version | 18:57 |
| dualMoon | zookalicious, I didn't say you did. didn't actually say anything about you ;) | 18:57 |
| v0lksman | can anyone point me to docs for troubleshooting mic issues? | 18:57 |
| zookalicious | dualMoon - alrighty | 18:57 |
| erUSUL | !sound | 18:57 |
| ubottu | 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. | 18:57 |
| bazhang | dualMoon, chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic | 18:57 |
| J_C | dualmoon: sometimes we do and sometimes we don't, it depends on the qestion and wether the asker bothered to do things like read the README.1st file | 18:57 |
| dualMoon | wow, people got defensive quick x: | 18:58 |
| J_C | not really | 18:58 |
| dualMoon | anyways, anyone know of a way to inject an apt-get into a startup script? | 18:58 |
| J_C | exec apt-get | 18:59 |
| bindi | zookalicious: i take it this 2D is a wrecked version | 18:59 |
| J_C | if it's bash | 18:59 |
| bindi | can't i get the full one? <.< | 18:59 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: right, looks like you can't start jack for some reason | 18:59 |
| J_C | depends on the script | 18:59 |

| dub54 | erUSUL: sudo apt-get install tasksel says could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock ? | 18:59 |
| zookalicious | bindi - I'm not sure where I read it, but I seem to recall that the 3D version wasn't availible yet for Maverick or Karmic | 18:59 |
| erUSUL | dub54: do you have synaptic or the ubuntu software center running? | 18:59 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: read this -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudioPreparation#Real-Time%20Support | 18:59 |
| dub54 | erUSUL: synaptic | 19:00 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: you do not need a realtime kernel, you just need to allow your user realtime capabilities | 19:00 |
| dualMoon | well, like i was saying earlier, i only really have access to the filesystem at this point. i can create or edit a file, but where would i need to put it so that it ran automatically if i restart the container? | 19:00 |
| J_C | erUSUL: that means that apt is already running, maybe you have synaptic opened or update opened? | 19:00 |
| zookalicious | bindi - im double checking | 19:00 |
| bindi | zookalicious: sure :p whats with all those guides about unity for 10.04 then | 19:00 |
| MikeMike1 | gordonjcpgordonfcp- thanks! I guess i forgot to mention i run ubuntu studio haha | 19:00 |
| schnuffle1 | c3l: you need libdvdcss2 | 19:01 |
| zookalicious | bindi - those refer to the old netbook edition of unity | 19:01 |
| zookalicious | bindi - it used mutter instead of compiz and was not that great | 19:01 |
| erUSUL | dub54: you can use synaptic to install the lamp server. go to Edit>Mar packages by task | 19:01 |
| bindi | i see | 19:01 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: okay, that shouldn't make a big difference ;-) | 19:01 |
| erUSUL | dub54: i thought you were in a server with no gui | 19:01 |
| zookalicious | bindi - yeah, I just double checked. 3D unity is not backported. So you can only get it on the 11.04 alpha | 19:01 |
| schnuffle1 | c3l: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/musicvideophotos/C/video-dvd.html | 19:02 |
| bindi | zookalicious: meh, i'll leave it to be then | 19:02 |
| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp: also, somtimes my lmms crashes because of "segmentation failure" | 19:02 |
| zookalicious | bindi - ok. If you want to try the 2D version though, its two commands located on this page. http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/01/unity-2d-gets-a-ppa/ | 19:02 |
| zookalicious | bindi - sudo add-apt-repository ppa:unity-2d-team/unity-2d-daily && sudo apt-get update | 19:02 |
| zookalicious | bindi - and sudo apt-get install unity-qt-default-settings | 19:02 |
| LinuxNoob | how do you ping in terminal? | 19:03 |
| daniel__ | does chromium have got WebGL support? | 19:03 |
| bindi | zookalicious: yeah i saw that :p but cba | 19:03 |
| zookalicious | bindi - but thats only the 2D so you'll probably just want to wait | 19:03 |
| bindi | i will | 19:03 |
| zookalicious | bindi - alrighty | 19:03 |
| dub54 | erUSUL: i don't see mark packages by task | 19:03 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: lmms does that a bit | 19:03 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: frankly lmms is a bit crap | 19:03 |
| erUSUL | dub54: well my version of synaptic is in spanish... but it has to be something similar | 19:03 |
| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp: is there a better DAW that I can use a midi with? | 19:04 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: no idea, I use Ardour for recording but I don't use a PC-based sequencer | 19:04 |
| erUSUL | dub54: it is Edit>Mark Packages by Task... | 19:04 |
| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp: whats a PC based sequencer? | 19:05 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: a MIDI sequencer that runs on a PC | 19:05 |
| gordonjcp | or other computer | 19:05 |
| gordonjcp | as opposed to a hardware standalone sequencer like an Alesis MMT-8 | 19:05 |
| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp: ohhh yeah i forgot lmms can run on pc | 19:05 |
| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp; would you know how to configure midi devices? | 19:06 |
| c3l | schnuffle1: oh, thanks | 19:06 |
| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp: i have a great keyboard I would love to start using with linux | 19:06 |
| dualMoon | alright how about this: is there a place that linux will read and automatically execute bash files at startup? | 19:06 |
| schnuffle1 | MikeMike1: have a look at http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/apps/start | 19:06 |
| haakon_ | testing | 19:06 |
| jrib | dualMoon: what do you want to accomplish exactly? | 19:06 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: you might also want to try #ubuntustudio and possibly #lad ;-) | 19:06 |
| v0lksman | So I have an HDA ATI SB Realtek ALC892, and can only get the mic to work once in a blue moon...I've tried everything including upgrading to Maverick from Lucid cause there was a known issue with the older kernel. Still no reliable mic...I really need a mic on this machine...any ideas how to work around this? | 19:06 |
| dub54 | erUSUL: think I got it working but I don't have permission to write to var/www ? | 19:06 |
| MikeMike1 | i didint know those existed hahah | 19:06 |
| eXpLoD | how can i make a shortcut or something like this so it would run a command in a terminal but in background? | 19:06 |
| dualMoon | jrib, i want to reinstall SSH when I only have access to the filesystem of my VPS container. | 19:07 |
| schnuffle1 | dualMoon: at boot there is /etc/rc.local, at login threre's your .bashrc | 19:07 |
| MikeMike1 | whats #lad | 19:07 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: the latter is the Linux Audio Developer IRC channel, but most of the devs will help out users | 19:07 |
| erUSUL | dualMoon: call them from /etc/rc.local | 19:07 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: you pretty much just connect up MIDI and it works | 19:07 |
| MikeMike1 | i herard its a process i have to do some coding with | 19:07 |
| LinuxNoob | okay guys ive gotten to this, if i want to ping google.com | 19:07 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: if you're using USB MIDI adaptors there is some clever tweaking you can to to ensure they always stay in the same "slot" | 19:07 |
| Luvz2drv | I need help with installing 10.10 with my setup | 19:07 |
| jrib | dualMoon: reinstalling ssh is unlikely to change anything really; why would you want to reinstall ssh? | 19:08 |
| LinuxNoob | sudo ping -c 5 www.google.com | 19:08 |
| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp: yup its usb | 19:08 |
| LinuxNoob | luvz2drv: whats goin on | 19:08 |
| jazeery | hi | 19:08 |
| daniel__ | How can I enable WebGL for chromium? | 19:08 |
| dualMoon | jrib, because when i was doing cleanup it got uninstalled D: | 19:08 |
| jazeery | hi all | 19:08 |
| LinuxNoob | luvz2drv: whats the problem ur havin with 10.10 | 19:08 |
| jazeery | all of theme t | 19:08 |
| jrib | dualMoon: I see. I guess you can try rc.local, should work... | 19:08 |
| LinuxNoob | hi jazerry | 19:08 |
| dualMoon | jrib, my stupid eyes were glazed over. never aptitude purge at 4AM :x | 19:09 |
| schnuffle1 | dualMoon: another way is to boot from live and then chroot into yout partition to install | 19:09 |
| Luvz2drv | my drive i have installed win7 on (boot drive) is not seen by the ubuntu install disk. I have a entiry different drive for ubunto set aside that is seen but it will not boot just get a _ | 19:09 |
| Seven_Six_Two | daniel__, you have to do it from the command line | 19:09 |
| jazeery | hi linuxnoob | 19:09 |
| dualMoon | schnuffle1, no physical access :P | 19:09 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: what kind of keyboard do you have? | 19:09 |
| jazeery | how is things | 19:09 |
| v0lksman | dualMoon, does your VPS provider not give you a browser based console to your slice? | 19:09 |
| schnuffle1 | dualMoon: No rescue system? | 19:09 |
| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp: akai mpk49 | 19:09 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: cool | 19:10 |
| dualMoon | v0lksman, yes and no. it's a java version of an SSH client, which of course doesn't help, haha | 19:10 |
| jazeery | where can i get the java for ubinto | 19:10 |
| gordonjcp | MikeMike1: as far as I know, if you plug that in it should just appear as a MIDI device | 19:10 |
| xangua | !java | jazeery | 19:10 |
| ubottu | jazeery: To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu on 10.04 LTS and newer, see http://tinyurl.com/2ffg7cc - For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 19:10 |
| Seven_Six_Two | jazeery, it's in synaptic | 19:10 |
| v0lksman | hahhaa...and they don't give you a special boot partition in case you pooch your machine? (like finnix?) | 19:10 |
| v0lksman | dualMoon, ^ | 19:10 |
| dualMoon | v0lksman, no that i've found yet. | 19:10 |
| v0lksman | dualMoon, can I ask who the provider is?> | 19:11 |
| MikeMike1 | gordonjcp: yeah but it wont work with some applications like lmms, virtual keyboard, or drum machine | 19:11 |
| jazeery | thanks | 19:11 |
| jazeery | all | 19:11 |
| dualMoon | v0lksman, just the browser access to the filesystem. there's a way to install apps, like an apt-get web frontend, but there's an error with it ofc | 19:11 |
| dualMoon | v0lksman, it's VPSland | 19:11 |
| MrMintanet | Can someone tell me how to install X3: Reunion? I have downloaded it from Demonoid, and want to install it. I have no idea how to get the setup file to run. Can someone help? | 19:12 |
| === dub54_ is now known as dub54 | ||
| MrMintanet | I have tried chmod +x setup.sh but that did not work. | 19:12 |
| daniel__ | hm, it doesn't work for me | 19:12 |
| ActionParsnip | !piracy | MrMintanet | 19:12 |
| ubottu | MrMintanet: piracy discussion and other questionably legal practices are not welcome in the Ubuntu channels. Please take this discussion elsewhere or abstain from it altogether. This includes linking to pirated software, music, and video. Also see !guidelines and !o4o | 19:12 |
| v0lksman | dualMoon, bummer...not that it will help much now but Linode is the king of VPS hosts...you wouldn't be in this mess with them...of course that doesn't help you at all and I'm a dick for saying so... :P | 19:12 |
| MrMintanet | I purchased the game already. | 19:12 |
| MrMintanet | I just don't know how to install it. | 19:12 |
| dualMoon | v0lksman, no, it's fine, i'll look into them in the future for sure :D | 19:13 |
| Seven_Six_Two | MrMintanet, what error do you get when you run setup.sh? | 19:13 |
| ActionParsnip | MrMintanet: ask in #winehq | 19:13 |
| MrMintanet | This game is for Linux | 19:13 |
| MrMintanet | It doesn't require Wine. | 19:13 |
| daniel__ | are you root by installing this? | 19:14 |
| MrMintanet | Yes | 19:14 |
| MrMintanet | How do I run an "executable" file? | 19:14 |
| MrMintanet | It isn't .exe | 19:14 |
| MrMintanet | I had to right click, and change it's permissions to "run as an executable" | 19:14 |
| Seven_Six_Two | MrMintanet, precede the file with a ./ | 19:14 |
| theSoundEngineer | sh ./ | 19:14 |
| theSoundEngineer | or just ./ | 19:15 |
| ActionParsnip | MrMintanet: as you have purchased the game, the ideal support will be from the game support chan | 19:15 |
| Seven_Six_Two | ActionParsnip, unless it's giving an ubuntu related error | 19:15 |
| MrMintanet | I prefer to ask the IRC, if that is ok, ActionParsnip. I don't mean to cause any trouble by asking how to install a video game... | 19:15 |
| dualMoon | MrMintanet, it's fine. what files do you have available in that package? is there a setup.sh or some such? | 19:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Channels and helplines. You also pay for support and updates when you buy software | 19:16 |
| MrMintanet | Yes | 19:16 |
| MrMintanet | There is a setup.sh | 19:16 |
| schnuffle1 | MrMintanet: just answer the questions :) what happens when when you execute sh /path/to/setup.sh? | 19:16 |
| ScislaC | I can't pull some magic to dist-upgrade to 64-bit from 32, can I? | 19:16 |
| eXpLoD | how can i run somethinf through terminal so it runs in background,so i can close the terminal emulator after then without closing the app? | 19:17 |
| dualMoon | eXpLoD, often you can add a space then a "&" after the command | 19:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Seven_Six_Two: still supported by the makers | 19:18 |
| ActionParsnip | MrMintanet: its | 19:18 |
| schnuffle1 | eXpLoD: just add a & to the end of the command like dhcpd & | 19:18 |
| dualMoon | eXpLoD, sometimes it won't always work and apps bind to that terminal anyway, but for the most part it should | 19:19 |
| dualMoon | eXpLoD, you can also use the run box if you use Gnome | 19:19 |
| MrMintanet | schnuffle1, It launches some installer for an "Update" program. | 19:19 |
| MrMintanet | It seems like it is skipping the installation of the actual game. | 19:19 |
| schnuffle1 | eXpLoD: if you don't wnat to bother with output from your app ou need to redirect stdout and tderr | 19:20 |
| dualMoon | since I don't have a linux box right in front of me, would someone be so kind as to give me the exact name of the default ssh daemon package? x: | 19:20 |
| eXpLoD | how can i make a script(say i want to run codeblocks by that alt+f2 dialog).How can i make a script like that and add it to mah panel? | 19:20 |
| tzaeru | hm. updating ubuntu staid at "Getting new packages" and has been there for past 30 minutes, even tho all packages have been fetched. | 19:20 |
| ActionParsnip | MrMintanet: its not the game its how you got it which screams piracy which is not endorsed. You should have gone to the developer site and requested a redownload which is absolutely fine | 19:20 |
| tzaeru | is it actually doing something or shouldn't this happen? >_> | 19:20 |
| dualMoon | eXpLoD, just right click your panel and do "add launcher" iirc | 19:20 |
| Gambit | Hello everyone. I'm looking for some help with Ubuntu One. It constantly shows disconnected as my status, but when I hit connect for this machine on the devices tab it does nothing, and just comes right back. | 19:20 |
| Jordan_U | Gambit: Try asking in #ubuntuone | 19:21 |
| dougl | does anyone know how to use an ipod touch with ubuntu? | 19:21 |
| lexvegas | dualMoon, as in to install a ssh server? | 19:21 |
| Gambit | I have fully reinstalled the entirety of ubuntuone twice following these instructions: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8146023&postcount=2 | 19:21 |
| dualMoon | aye, lexvegas | 19:21 |
| Gambit | Jordan_U: Oh thanks. I didn't realize it had its own channel. | 19:21 |
| Jordan_U | Gambit: You're welcome. | 19:21 |
| schnuffle1 | dualMoon: openssh-server | 19:21 |
| lexvegas | dualMoon, it is just ssh that installs the server and the client is already installed | 19:21 |
| dualMoon | ahh, thanks doll | 19:21 |
| ActionParsnip | eXpLoD: the terminal is the parent process so killing the parent kills the processes it spawns | 19:22 |
| eXpLoD | yeah but i dont like having a terminal always opened | 19:22 |
| lexvegas | dualMoon, and apparently openssh-server haha | 19:22 |
| schnuffle1 | eXpLoD: could screen be an option | 19:22 |
| dualMoon | lexvegas, no worries hon, package names can been, well, insane | 19:22 |
| dualMoon | s/been/be | 19:23 |
| bonjoyee | does dropbox have a file sharing link? | 19:23 |
| ActionParsnip | eXpLoD: create a launcher to run the command or a script and it will run. The parent will be the desktop | 19:24 |
| ActionParsnip | bonjoyee: yes | 19:24 |
| LinuxNoob | my friend was telling me that i need to learn how to make force application stoppers, any truth in this? | 19:24 |
| DarsVaeda | hi, i have file permission issues, i setup a apache webserver and can access the "it works" file via browser, but if i create a directory in the same location as that file i always get access denied | 19:25 |
| lexvegas | LinuxNoob, as in how to stop a non responsive application? | 19:25 |
| DarsVaeda | aka 403 forbidden | 19:25 |
| ActionParsnip | LinuxNoob: for what reason? | 19:25 |
| maxyjj | hi all | 19:25 |
| LinuxNoob | lexvegas: correct | 19:25 |
| LinuxNoob | like ctrl alt delete for win | 19:25 |
| bonjoyee | ActionParsnip: where i can send a link to a friend..and the friend can download the file off the internet without logging in/any extra setup? | 19:25 |
| LinuxNoob | right click the dl link and copy link as | 19:25 |
| ActionParsnip | bonjoyee: yes | 19:26 |
| safetynet | Hi Is there a way to set the "Update Manager" to run at a scheduled date or time instead of doing a manual check ? ? | 19:26 |
| bonjoyee | ActionParsnip: alright..thanks!! i wonder if adrive is good..it offers 50GB!! | 19:26 |
| ActionParsnip | safetynet: create a script to run updates unattended | 19:26 |
| maxyjj | i got a problem with dns cache want to clean it, but its not having non of it every time i typr the commnd its say ok but everey thing still the same any one have an idia what it could be | 19:26 |
| RishavT | DarsVaeda: try right-clicking the files in the folder, properties, permissions, and set the "others" (or everyone else) part to "read". That should let apache read the files. | 19:26 |

| lexvegas | LinuxNoob, its not hard http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/6-different-ways-to-end-unresponsive-programs-in-linux/ here is an article showing 6 different ways. I use killall the most probably, and then kill in combination with "ps Aaux" for more precise actions | 19:27 |
| LinuxNoob | natty? | 19:27 |
| minimec | paradigmflow: /join #ubuntu+1 | 19:27 |
| LinuxNoob | when i hear natty i think natural light :D | 19:27 |
| DarsVaeda | i did a "sudo chown -R root:www-data cms/" cms is the folder i created | 19:27 |
| paradigmflow | :) | 19:27 |
| ActionParsnip | safetynet: you can then cron the script to run as root and updates will happen magically | 19:27 |
| LinuxNoob | or.. | 19:28 |
| DarsVaeda | also a "sudo chmod -R 775 cms/" | 19:28 |
| LinuxNoob | u can go to update manager | 19:28 |
| LinuxNoob | click on settings, and look at updates lol | 19:28 |
| DarsVaeda | the cms folder actually has "more" rights than the index file, still i get the 403 | 19:28 |
| DarsVaeda | i dont get it | 19:28 |
| safetynet | ActionParsnip, Ah sorry not that good at doing that yet - is there possibly another easier alternative doing it with a script? | 19:28 |

| LinuxNoob | o | 19:29 |
| LinuxNoob | chaos2358: yeah | 19:29 |
| LinuxNoob | go to system/admin | 19:29 |
| bullgard4 | chaos2358: Yes. | 19:29 |
| LinuxNoob | users and groups, and advanced settings | 19:29 |
| ActionParsnip | safetynet: if you can hang 5 i can give you mine. If you can use terminal you can script | 19:30 |
| minimec | chaos2358: That is easy. Open /etc/hostname --> sudo nano /etc/hostname | 19:30 |
| jrib | bullgard4: that environment variable is only a way to override the MESSAGES format chosen by LANG (I THINK; not sure) | 19:30 |
| LinuxNoob | safteynet what was ur question again? | 19:30 |
| ActionParsnip | !hostname | 19:30 |
| ubottu | Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hosts to include BOTH the old and new hostname and then change /etc/hostname to the new one. WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. | 19:30 |
| chaos2358 | LinuxNoob ok thank you. I just did a reinstall to fix some corruption and i made some typos | 19:30 |

| safetynet | ActionParsnip, that would be very cool - will wait thanks | 19:33 |
| RishavT | DarsVaeda: try "sudo chmod -R 755 cms/*", It worked for me (just tested it right now. I 1st changed the permissions so that I get the forbidden error and then executed that command. It worked) If it still doesn't work, I really dont know why its not. :( | 19:33 |
| daniel__ | i can't regulate the volume by scrolling over the sound menu, how can I fix it? | 19:33 |
| DarsVaeda | symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible: /var/lib/typo3-dummy/index.php | 19:33 |
| LinuxNoob | click on the sound thing | 19:33 |
| DarsVaeda | try to install typo3...something is up with that dummy | 19:33 |
| LinuxNoob | and click on sound preferences | 19:33 |
| dimmortal | why oh why is the me menu dependent on gwibber?? :( | 19:34 |

| safetynet | ActionParsnip, I can get around in Terminal ok for a neub | 19:34 |

| jrib | bullgard4: well you can set LANG in /etc/environment if you want to change your locale. If you just want to change a specific LC_ then set that in /etc/environment (see « man locale »). Also, the default locale seems to come from /etc/default/locale. Might be worthwhile to search for a locale page on help.ubuntu.com as I do not know much about this | 19:36 |

| schnuffle1 | StevenX: Wubi will be more liht weight bot there seems to be alot of problems with it | 19:42 |
| erUSUL | StevenX: with wubi you can not run them side by side; you have to dual boot | 19:42 |

| schnuffle1 | StevenX: theres colinux and andLinux as well | 19:43 |
| kob | port forwarding | 19:43 |

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. | 19:50 |

| ActionParsnip | Wipster: i suggest you fsck it to be sure, you may also want to test your RAM. You could also add the virtualbox repo and install the 4.0 non-open version | 19:50 |

| morphles | what hell.. how i dissable frickin nouveaou driver in 10.04.... rmmod does not let me remove that, since it is in use, by god knows what, i blacklisted it, and some other modules that people suggested in forums, rebuild initramfs, even booted to recovery mode, its still there... what a f.... | 19:50 |
| LinuxNoob | wheres the driver located? | 19:51 |
| zookalicious | Jayro - hmm im not quite sure sorry | 19:51 |
| RishavT | MrMintanet: just fyi, if archiving is still taking time, creating just a .tar will be faster since it doesn't compresses much. | 19:51 |
| ActionParsnip | morphles: you can run: echo "blacklist nouveau" | sudo tell /etc/modprobe.d/nouveau.conf and it wil blacklist the driver | 19:51 |

| Wipster | ActionParsnip, can I fsck a mounted partition or do I need to live cd it? | 19:51 |
| ActionParsnip | morphles: or you can uninstall the package which provides it in apt-get / software centre / whatever | 19:51 |
| morphles | so it uses personal blacklist conf? | 19:52 |
| jcasex | LinuxNoob: linux is far easier than windows, windows now adays is confusing, havent used it in so long | 19:52 |
| morphles | why simple blacklist.conf isint enough for it? | 19:52 |
| linxeh | is there a way to download a package and all its dependencies to copy to another machine for offline install? ideally from a different version than is installed (I'd like to get all the packages for meld for 10.04, but I'm running 10.10) | 19:52 |
| genii-around | hdtdi: /usr/bin is probably best | 19:52 |
| ActionParsnip | morphles: no, but the command won't impact on any other of the conf files ;) | 19:52 |
| ActionParsnip | !fsck | Wipster | 19:52 |
| ubottu | Wipster: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 19:52 |
| hdtdi | genii-around, isnt that just for the executable files? i have a whole dir with files.. | 19:52 |
| LinuxNoob | jcasex: eh, ive only been on for 2 days i know windows in and out, but linux...its mars to me still | 19:53 |
| zookalicious | linxeh - its not advisable to use files for one system on another system | 19:53 |
| Wipster | ActionParsnip, thanks! | 19:53 |
| zookalicious | linxeh - your best option would be to download the binaries for the system you want to install it on or use the source code | 19:53 |
| Wipster | ActionParsnip, will be back with results and if that helped | 19:53 |
| genii-around | hdtdi: Even in Windows, the C:\program files is not where everything goes to. The same here. But mostly user binaries in /usr/bin system binaries in /bin and so on. | 19:54 |

| ActionParsnip | NickGGG: yes, if you want to resize, you need to make free space to resize into | 20:36 |
| nemo | if my processor is spiking at like 70% CPU usage on file operations | 20:37 |
| nemo | but no processes seem to be involved | 20:37 |
| nemo | that would be kernel? | 20:37 |
| magicianlord | does pulseaudio increase audio quality or volume over the standard alsa? | 20:37 |
| ActionParsnip | nemo: run: top and you can see what is using the cpu | 20:37 |
| nemo | ActionParsnip: right. been doing that | 20:38 |
| nemo | and nothing shows | 20:38 |
| nemo | thus my asking about kernel | 20:38 |
| ActionParsnip | magicianlord: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PulseAudio | 20:38 |
| ActionParsnip | magicianlord: it adds a few extra features | 20:38 |
| dimmortal | now if I can figure out how to make it dockable(reserve space like panels do) I can put it on its own desktop and have 1 deskspace for pidgin.... anyone know if/how that might be done?? | 20:39 |
| ActionParsnip | ha, nokia N900 uses pulse | 20:39 |
| NickGGG | if i want to uninstall ubu can i just delete the ubu partitions from the live cd ? | 20:39 |
| ActionParsnip | NickGGG: sure but you will need to reinstate the windows boot loader if you dualboot, you will LOSE the data on the partitions you delete | 20:39 |
| BlueBomber7 | ActionParsnip, magicianlord: From what someone over in #ardour was teaching me, PulseAudio doesn't really replace ALSA, but interfaces with it. JACK is another alternative to Pulse aimed at professionals. | 20:40 |
| ActionParsnip | BlueBomber7: ive never dug into sound in linux, mine always just works and does what its supopsed to do :) | 20:40 |
| BlueBomber7 | ActionParsnip: Same with mine, and I use a professional external sound card (Edirol UA25). | 20:41 |
| evulhotdog | is there an app to change cursors in ubuntu? | 20:41 |
| ActionParsnip | evulhotdog: its in the display properties, customise the theme and you change the cursor | 20:42 |
| NickGGG | ActionParsnip: so if i delete only ubu partitions will I lose windows data ? | 20:42 |
| YankDownUnder | evulhotdog, You can install heaps of different cursors throught Synaptic (Software Centre) | 20:42 |
| evulhotdog | nvm -_- | 20:42 |
| evulhotdog | YankDownUnder I selected Cursor Selection | 20:42 |
| evulhotdog | downloaded* | 20:42 |
| evulhotdog | and it didnt work at all YankDownUnder :( | 20:42 |
| YankDownUnder | evulhotdog, Log out, login. | 20:43 |
| ActionParsnip | NickGGG: no, its a different partition | 20:43 |
| evulhotdog | lol i looked it up online, apparently it hasnt been updated since aug of 2004... YankDownUnder | 20:43 |
| dimmortal | I think he ment each cursor event like in windows | 20:43 |
| NickGGG | ActionParsnip: so when I delete the ubu partitions I will be able to boot under windows ? | 20:43 |
| dimmortal | NickGGG: is grub on one of the windows partition?? | 20:45 |
| IrcUser55 | Is there a way for me to share settings and emails of the Evolution email client both on Windows and Ubuntu? And is there Evolution for Windows anywhere, or is it only available in Gnome of Ubuntu? | 20:45 |
| maco | IrcUser55: gnome only | 20:45 |
| NickGGG | dimmortal: how can I check ? | 20:45 |
| magicianlord | i couldnt compire the broadcom driver on kernel 2.6.37, until i took out a line from on of the files | 20:45 |
| maco | IrcUser55: well....could use it with kde.... so i should say free-software-operating-systems-only | 20:46 |
| YankDownUnder | IrcUser55, Yes, there IS a version of Evolution for MS Windows. http://www.dipconsultants.com/evolution/ | 20:46 |
| IrcUser55 | maco: ok, thanks :) | 20:46 |
| chaos2358 | is there anyway i can setup to not have to enter passwords at all?? It's a private laptop with a "power on " password set in my bios so there is no need for it. I'm running ubuntu 10.10 | 20:48 |
| dimmortal | well when you installed ubuntu... the windows partition was the first one on the drive...right?? | 20:48 |
| NickGGG | yes | 20:48 |
| IrcUser55 | YankDownUnder: thanks. That is what I was also told by a friend, but he also told me it was outdated? (or a dead project anyway) | 20:49 |
| dimmortal | then grub "should" be on that partition | 20:49 |
| Arch97 | ubuntu is so bad | 20:49 |
| Arch97 | its well | 20:49 |
| Arch97 | yes | 20:49 |
| dimmortal | as it's the one with the boot sector | 20:49 |
| Arch97 | its fucking bad | 20:49 |
| evulhotdog | YankDownUnder even when i try to change the cursor through 'appearance' it doesnt change, i select it, press close, and it just doesnt change...???? | 20:49 |
| Arch97 | its for bitches | 20:49 |
| YankDownUnder | IrcUser55, It's a point of showing that it can be compiled under Win32, and I've used it for clients to import their email from Outlook, then copy it into Evolution under Ubuntu. | 20:49 |

| Guest43282 | Does any body here has some problems with emesene ? i just cant connect ! | 20:50 |
| YankDownUnder | evulhotdog, Install some different cursor themes through the Software Centre, try again, also, log out and login. | 20:50 |
| bullgard4 | '~$ sudo e2fsck -c /dev/sda7; home: 36753/1802240 files /(12.8% non-contiguous), 2438714/3602568 blocks'. Why is "(12.8% non-contiguous)" important? | 20:50 |
| evulhotdog | YankDownUnder i just rebooted, and it didnt work :O but will try with some 3rd party | 20:50 |
| dimmortal | you should be able to.. I think... but I haven't really tried it my self | 20:51 |
| YankDownUnder | evulhotdog, If you're trying with 3d party stuff, and it already doesn't work, don't expect a miracle. | 20:51 |
| evulhotdog | lol im using ubuntu :O | 20:51 |
| evulhotdog | in the appearance settings | 20:51 |
| dimmortal | why would you want to get rid of ubuntu?? | 20:51 |
| evulhotdog | okay explain this, it chnaged the text cursor icon, and the link button icon, but not the main cursor YankDownUnder :P | 20:52 |
| MikeMike1 | can anybody recommend me a good program to convert files? | 20:52 |
| dimmortal | MikeMike1: depends on what kinda files you're converting...lol | 20:53 |
| genii-around | MikeMike1: From what to what? | 20:53 |
| MikeMike1 | flv to mp4 | 20:53 |
| MikeMike1 | i want to put youtube videos on my ipod lol | 20:54 |
| IrcUser55 | YankDownUnder: ok. I don't want to bother anyone, so just a last question (because you said you used Evolution on Windows). Is it possible to share their settings somehow (for both the win and Ubuntu versions of Evolution)? | 20:54 |
| YankDownUnder | evulhotdog, I can only explain based on what I know, which is only that you wanted to change the cursor theme. What window manager are you using? Have you installed any GTK themes? | 20:54 |
| evulhotdog | no themes | 20:54 |
| dimmortal | eww... apple pod | 20:54 |
| evulhotdog | pure default ubuntu | 20:54 |
| evulhotdog | other than compiz settings changes. | 20:54 |
| YankDownUnder | IrcUser55, In all reality, the way that I do it for clients is I setup postfix+dovecot+imap and setup each individually. | 20:54 |
| YankDownUnder | evulhotdog, If you can't change a cursor theme, can you change an icon theme? | 20:55 |
| root_cyc | hello | 20:55 |
| evulhotdog | let me try | 20:55 |
| root_cyc | hello | 20:55 |
| MikeMike1 | anything? | 20:55 |
| root_cyc | qll network | 20:55 |
| evulhotdog | okay | 20:56 |
| evulhotdog | icons worked | 20:56 |
| === Lenin_Cat is now known as CrazyAnimalActiv | ||
| evulhotdog | changed in the 'places' | 20:56 |
| === CrazyAnimalActiv is now known as Lenin_Cat | ||
| evulhotdog | Like I said, its odd that the cursor when hovering over text, changed, and the link hand changed, but the main cursor did not. I just want a black cursor!! haha | 20:56 |
| IrcUser55 | YankDownUnder: ok, thank you very much :D (althougt I admit I didn't understand what you last said). Anyway, thanks a lot :) bye | 20:57 |
| YankDownUnder | evulhotdog, Being that cursors and icons are basically the same, then I'd suggest installing like "Oxygen-cursor-theme" through Synaptic (Software Centre), change to an Oxygen cursor, see if that changes at all - eliminate things in order to troubleshoot. | 20:57 |
| === kthomas is now known as onekenthomas | ||
| evulhotdog | btw installed a custom theme, still didnt change the main cursor. ( i have oxygen, haha, it changes the 'loading' icon, link icon, and text icon (icon==cursor) but doesnt change the main plain cursor | 20:58 |
| thorbj0rn | evulhotdog: there is a whole other selection dialog for cursors | 20:58 |
| dimmortal | try the comix theme.. its more obvious when it changes | 20:59 |
| evulhotdog | dimmortal, i can tell what the changes are lol | 20:59 |
| thorbj0rn | evulhotdog: Appearance > Themes > Customize > Pointer | 20:59 |
| evulhotdog | and thorbj0rn thats where im changing it... | 20:59 |
| thorbj0rn | the cursor should change immediately upon clicking the new style in the list | 21:00 |

| edbian | Silivrenion, Lemme research a little | 21:32 |
| mister2 | avashil no, you have to install it. look up installing from the source. | 21:33 |
| guntbert | avashi1: read, what ubottu sent you | 21:33 |
| minimec | malebogia: I don't know what you did exactly, but that tutorial gives you an uninstalling option... So just unistall it. Afterwards you might do a 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa'. That's all I can tell you. | 21:33 |
| edbian | Silivrenion, Perhaps you can get lucky: do this sudo apt-get install -reinstall ubuntu-desktop | 21:34 |
| edbian | Silivrenion, I'm hoping that the package manager replaces everything that is missing from /usr/lib | 21:34 |
| malebogia | minimec: OK, I'll try. Thanks | 21:34 |

| edbian | paradigmflow, /usr/bin/ | 21:35 |
| Silivrenion | edbian, fairly similar | 21:35 |
| paradigmflow | thnx | 21:35 |
| avashi1 | I checked what ubottu sent me.. Thanks but it has millions of steps.. i just need to know how to install a .tgz file | 21:35 |
| Fuchs | paradigmflow: the files are distributed over /usr/bin, /usr/share, /usr/lib and so on. But for you as a user: the app should be in the menu, the binary (the file "launching it") will be in $PATH, which is probably /usr/bin/ | 21:35 |
| smw | Anyone know what to do if update-grub2 does not find windows? | 21:35 |
| newpuppyuser5 | if installed gnome based Mint 10, can i switch to xfce after install= | 21:36 |
| edbian | Silivrenion, Then it's worth a shot. /usr/lib are libraries (bunches of code) that are used by more than one program. It's likely that many programs will not run if it's missing but you do something like sudo apt-get install -reinstall ubuntu-desktop it'll get just about everything for you. (hopefully 100% of the shared files) | 21:36 |
| emka | 1005919 | 21:36 |

| mkanyicy | Burzmali: you mean unmounting a mounted iso? | 22:11 |
| malebogia | minimec: there is alsasound in /etc/init.d/ but that's it | 22:11 |
| === root is now known as Guest61888 | ||
| Burzmali | mkanyicy: Can't umount, the iso has open file, hence the forcing part. The game is designed to eject an eject command to the disk drive | 22:12 |
| jrib | Renfield: basically ubuntu now uses upstart but upstart runs sysv init jobs (so old things won't break). What this means is there are now two possible ways a package may be starting. 1) it's the old sysv init way and you should use sysv-rc-conf, not manually edit files in that case (one day all these will be converted to upstart... one day...). 2) On the other hand, you can have a job started through | 22:12 |
| jrib | upstart (/etc/init). In that case, some scripts provide nice ways to disable it (read the particular script for hints). If there is no nice way, then just edit the script in /etc/init directly and change when it starts (for example you can add "never" as a starting condition) | 22:12 |
| Nach0z | Is there a way to prevent a sudoer from using a specific command? | 22:12 |
| mkanyicy | Burzmali: why dont you just mount another iso on top of the first one? | 22:12 |
| Fuchs | Nach0z: yes. You can specify programs via the sudoers file, but blacklisting is a bit more complicated than withelisting | 22:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Nach0z: no as it has the same access as root | 22:13 |
| Jordan_U | Nach0z: blacklisting commands is futile, whitelisting is easy and reasonable though. | 22:13 |
| felicity | how do i apply cycle.c to dwm? | 22:13 |
| Burzmali | mkanyicy: The open files prevent it | 22:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Fuchs: I think s/he wants to make a sudo user not be able to launch certain commands | 22:13 |
| Renfield | jrib: Ok, thanks. I'll look at sysv-rc-conf. | 22:13 |
| Fuchs | ActionParsnip: aware of it, and this is possible, but not really simple | 22:13 |
| jrib | Renfield: what specifically are you trying to control? | 22:14 |
| Burzmali | mkanyicy: Or at the very least, it appears that way, it silently fails to work | 22:14 |
| edbian | jrib, shutdown | 22:14 |
| jrib | edbian: 0_o | 22:14 |
| minimec | malebogia: YOu see. That's where I have to learn again in Ubuntu. I only habe alsa-mixer-save in /etc/init.d Again I am outdated when it comes to sound in Ubuntu. I definitly cannot help you help you .I have to learn myself ;) | 22:14 |
| Fuchs | ActionParsnip: you can either create a specific command list for this user in the sudoers file and not put him in the regular sudoers group, or make an own group for this | 22:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Fuchs: yeah sounds finikity | 22:14 |
| edbian | jrib, he's trying to control the shutdown command ;) | 22:14 |
| mkanyicy | Burzmali: so the 'ejecting of loopback' you are refering to, are you doing that under wine? | 22:14 |
| metallico | i just went into root shell prompt from the recovery console option and changed the password via 'passwd'. the system said it has been changed sucesfully, rebooting now to see if i will manage to login.. | 22:14 |
| Renfield | jrib: A few things. mailman, avahi, openbsd-inetd, and courier-authdaemon. | 22:14 |
| Nach0z | Jordan_U: i'm not trying to TOTALLY blacklist the command, I just want it so that the user can't sudo halt as easily. | 22:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Fuchs: yeah thas what I thought it'd take, a LONG list of ok commands | 22:14 |
| edbian | metallico, that's the proper way to do it. Should work | 22:14 |
| Renfield | jrib: It appears from the output of /etc/init.d/foo stop that only avahi-daemon has been converted to upstart on this system (9.10). | 22:15 |
| Burzmali | mkanyicy: Nope, Wine can't help it's the one holding the files | 22:15 |
| jrib | Renfield: I see. Well first you need to determine if each of those is an upstart job or not (you can just look at /etc/init) | 22:15 |
| Fuchs | oh, in fact it is easy | 22:15 |
| Jordan_U | Burzmali: "umount -l" does a lazy unmount, which will probably accomplish what you need. | 22:15 |
| Fuchs | the sudoers file knows the ! syntax | 22:15 |
| malebogia | minimec: OK, Thank You for Your time anyway. | 22:15 |

| Burzmali | Jordan_U: Thanks, I think I might have tricked it into working another way, but I'll let you know. | 22:16 |
| mkanyicy | Im not a wine expert, Burzmali, but I think you should try using another wine application, like alcholol 120% to insert&eject your iso's instead of using linux | 22:16 |
| Jordan_U | Burzmali: You're welcome. | 22:16 |
| Nach0z | Fuchs: How would I go about blacklisting the command then? It's not thjat i need it TOTALLY disabled, i just need it so that "sudo shutdown" doesn't work for a specific user. | 22:16 |
| Fuchs | Nach0z: I recommend creating a new group for that, excluding a list of comamnds you specify. Then take the specific user out of the regular sudoers group and put it in the new one | 22:16 |
| bindi | So.. anyone? My laptop lid needs to be closed twice so it hibernates. Ubuntu 10.04 | 22:16 |
| minimec | malebogia: no problem. | 22:16 |
| jrib | Renfield: so reading through /etc/init/avahi-daemon.conf, it doesn't seem like it checks for a file to disable it, so I would just add "never" as a condition to start. So it would "start on (never and filesystem and started dbus)" | 22:16 |
| mkanyicy | Burzmali: s/alcholol/alcohol/ | 22:17 |
| Burzmali | mkanyicy: Looks like I can rename drives on the fly and trick the application into accepting two different locations | 22:17 |
| Fuchs | Nach0z: no problem. Create a new group, add the list of blacklisted commands to the sudoers file as explained in the article I linked to | 22:17 |
| Fuchs | Nach0z: then give this group the rights to execute everything with sudo execpt the commands you blacklisted. Remove the specific user from the regular sudoers group, but add it to the one you created | 22:17 |
| Nach0z | oh sorry. i didn't see the link xD | 22:17 |
| Burzmali | mkanyicy: The funny part is that I have the disks, but some sort of latency issue if screwing installer. | 22:17 |
| Nach0z | thanks Fuchs | 22:18 |
| Fuchs | Nach0z: as said, be careful when editing the sudoers file (use visudo) and don't mess with the regular sudo group | 22:18 |
| Fuchs | no problem | 22:18 |
| jrib | Nach0z, Fuchs: although honestly if you give a user the ability to run everything except one command it would be pretty easy to still run that command | 22:19 |
| bullgard4 | mkanyicy: I obtain: "Installation finished. No error reported." | 22:19 |
| edbian | jrib, Nach0z They could simply sudo nano /etc/sudoers and change it back ;) | 22:19 |
| * jrib nods | 22:19 | |
| Fuchs | jrib: that's why I recommended a list, especially since there are lot of alternatives. But yes, you would need to disable shells as well, and probably everything that creates links and aliases | 22:19 |
| shadow66142000 | I'm installing the 10.10 server and it's not auto configuring my internet connection. I always seem to have this issues with internet on Ubuntu but not with CentOS. | 22:20 |
| metallico | it fixed it guys, thank you very much! | 22:20 |
| Fuchs | jrib: however, it is probably bad, but still the best probability | 22:20 |
| shadow66142000 | I can ping my router but not outside. Anyone mind giving me a little help? | 22:20 |
| Nach0z | jrib i don't want this command TOTALLY disabled for the user. But, the user has multiple servers that he likes to keep SSH's open to at once, and accidentally rebooted my server earlier. i just want to prevent that from happening. | 22:20 |
| edbian | shadow66142000, Something is wrong with the router | 22:21 |
| Fuchs | another possibility would be to use ACLs on the filesystem, and removing +x for that user | 22:21 |
| Fuchs | but I prefer the sudoers solution | 22:21 |
| malebogia | no soundcard in prefs , no sound at all, any help? | 22:21 |
| ActionParsnip | malebogia: what is the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ./alsa-info.sh say yes to upload to the site, what is the URL generated please | 22:22 |
| haakon_ | Anyone ever hade som problems with some insane memory consumption with vlc? | 22:22 |
| jrib | Nach0z: this is probably good enough for that then, but if he's malicious he would be able to workaround it | 22:22 |
| Nach0z | jrib he's not malicious. Just careless. | 22:23 |
| ibrahimb6 | any one knw how to connect mysql to netbean | 22:23 |
| ActionParsnip | malebogia: also, run: alsamixer and make sure all levels are cranked and not muted. Also make sure the speakers are on and cranked too | 22:23 |
| greppy | Nach0z: why not just rename it "halt.really" :) | 22:23 |
| ActionParsnip | haakon_: what version? | 22:23 |
| haakon_ | ubuntu lucid | 22:23 |
| jrib | Nach0z: you should drop a "reboot" in his math that echoes a friendly message to him then | 22:23 |
| ActionParsnip | haakon_: no, vlc version? | 22:23 |
| jrib | Nach0z: s/math/path | 22:23 |
| Renfield | Okay, here is another question. I did apt-get remove dovecot-common. I see /etc/init.d/dovecot. apt-file search /etc/init.d/dovecot says that this file is owned by dovecot-common. What's going on here? | 22:23 |
| haakon_ | 1.0.6 | 22:23 |
| Nach0z | jrib what does that mean? o_0 | 22:24 |
| haakon_ | never experienced it before, but today I on my TV via HDMI | 22:24 |
| haakon_ | I played it trough | 22:24 |
| ActionParsnip | haakon_: http://www.unixmen.com/software/1304-vlc-115-is-released-ppa-ubuntu-a-linuxmint try a newer version | 22:24 |
| Renfield | I would have expected that apt-get remove would remove all of the files associated with a package. | 22:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Renfield: it does, but not the config unless you add --purge | 22:24 |
| jrib | Nach0z: you could put a file in his PATH, so that when he runs "reboot" it runs the file you created instead of the real reboot. And the file you created could yell at him or something. More of a joke suggestion | 22:24 |
| haakon_ | thanks Action | 22:25 |
| === eXistZ is now known as eXistZ|Away | ||

| ibrahimb6 | pls any one knw how to connect mysql to netbean??? | 22:25 |
| ActionParsnip | haakon_: that ppa only seems to accommodate maverick | 22:26 |
| Renfield | ActionParsnip: And if I've already done a remove without the --purge, do I need to install it again to remove it with --purge? | 22:26 |
| edbian | lamefun, 2 * 1024 * 1024 | 22:26 |
| bindi | Ubuntu 10.04, laptop lid needs to be closed twice in order for it to hibernate | 22:26 |

| gordonjcp | anybody here know how to get the download link for the normal 10.10 iso? | 22:29 |
| guest458713 | jrib: I checked with ubuntu apps, no succes | 22:30 |
| jrib | gordonjcp: ubuntu.com -_- releases.ubuntu.com if you like less pictures | 22:30 |
| haakon_ | thanks | 22:30 |
| gordonjcp | jrib: why isn't there a more obvious link to that, instead of a broken javascript-only button? | 22:30 |
| jrib | gordonjcp: web 2.0? | 22:31 |
| gordonjcp | jrib: never mind that there's still no easy way to install | 22:31 |
| ActionParsnip | gordonjcp: http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.10/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso MD5 = 59d15a16ce90c8ee97fa7c211b7673a8 | 22:31 |

| nikin | hy. i am trying to use pcmanfm. but the version ubuntu has is two years old. Not to mention it has features like samba access removed. Can i somehow get a newer version around 0.9.x on 10.4LTS? | 22:31 |

| chaos2358 | cN nyone help me get my Canon Pixma Mp250 all-in-one printer up and running? | 22:31 |
| ActionParsnip | nikin: i believe if you add the Lubuntu ppa there is a newer one | 22:31 |
| ActionParsnip | chaos2358: the canon site makes drivers for linux in most cases | 22:32 |
| nikin | ActionParsnip: thank you.. i check | 22:32 |
| gordonjcp | jrib: if you click the big orange "Download Now" button, it starts displaying the contents of the ISO as a rather strange-looking web page | 22:32 |
| jrib | gordonjcp: works ok here :/ | 22:32 |
| gordonjcp | jrib: typical Ubuntu, form over function ;-) | 22:32 |

| ActionParsnip | gordonjcp: I gave the link to the iso file, what more can you need? | 22:32 |
| gordonjcp | ActionParsnip: yes thanks, I got that | 22:32 |
| gordonjcp | ActionParsnip: what more? Well, an image that can be written to a USB stick without having to faff about with unetbootin...? | 22:33 |
| chaos2358 | ActionParsnip, if i go to the US canon site they dont even support Linux on this model but in uk Canon i have downlloaded a tar.gz package and just cant get everything going. | 22:33 |
| ActionParsnip | gordonjcp: the ubuntu shop can sell you one ;) | 22:33 |
| gordonjcp | ActionParsnip: on a USB key? | 22:33 |
| Stryker | gordonjcp, save the weird page as the file | 22:33 |
| Stryker | file>save page as | 22:33 |
| ActionParsnip | malebogia: use this: http://monespaceperso.org/blog-en/2010/05/02/upgrade-alsa-1-0-23-on-ubuntu-lucid-lynx-10-04/ to get the driver, utils and lib to 1.0.23 as you currently have no alsa driver and a beta version of the utils | 22:34 |
| ActionParsnip | gordonjcp: yes | 22:34 |
| gordonjcp | Stryker: can you imagine the kind of state that firefox would get itself into if it tried to display all 700-odd meg of the iso? | 22:34 |
| Stryker | or right click the button and say save target as | 22:34 |
| gordonjcp | ActionParsnip: so why no download of a USB image? | 22:34 |
| gordonjcp | Stryker: you can't do that | 22:34 |
| Stryker | gordon, you could use a torrent | 22:34 |
| Stryker | there are torrent files of the iso | 22:34 |
| malebogia | ActionParsnip: On my way :) BTW: Great multitasking | 22:34 |
| ActionParsnip | chaos2358: http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010752.asp | 22:34 |
| gordonjcp | Stryker: the "Download Now" button isn't actually a link, it fires off a weird javascripty thing | 22:34 |
| ActionParsnip | chaos2358: they make linux drivers for it | 22:34 |
| Stryker | ah gordonjcp, just use the torrent though | 22:35 |
| gordonjcp | Stryker: I can't really be bothered installing and configuring a bittorrent client for one thing | 22:35 |

| [wito] | metallico: AFAIR; not even SSHD is enabled by default. | 22:43 |

| nit-wit | bullgard4, so you have intalled grub2 when you had grub-legaccy correct? | 22:50 |
| [wito] | JNEK: What you might want to do is keep Mac OS X on there and run Ubuntu in a virtual machine. | 22:50 |
| bullgard4 | nit-wit: Yes, that is my problem. | 22:50 |
| nit-wit | bullgard4, your still in the OS? | 22:50 |

When I use eSATA I receive the error: You are not privileged to mount the volume XXX. When I have thunar open as ROOT, it automounts.

| chaos2358 | ActionParsnip, Thank you sir. That was greatly appreciated. I just got the printer setup about a week ago and a guy in here just sent me the commands to enter not the link to the documentation so i had no way to save it and when i had to do a clean reinstall I saved the actual packages but couldnt get them all to install. Everything is Working famously now and the link has been saved for future reference. Thank you again. | 22:53 |
| bindi | YankDownUnder: uh those people seem to have it not working at all | 22:53 |
| YankDownUnder | bindi, Have you read the entire thread? | 22:53 |

| r000t_laptop | Shards_of_Narsil, Try getting it from BitTorrent. If it downloads fast it's probably the english version, and if you still have problems, I'll Priority Mail you a working CD | 23:19 |
| ActionParsnip | surt: it may already be a known bug and yuors will be marked as a duplicate but this is fine too | 23:19 |
| StepNjump | Is anyone familiar with the make command in bash? | 23:19 |
| surt | ActionParsnip: Alright then, I'll lodge a bug. Thanks mate. | 23:19 |
| r000t_laptop | StepNjump, Under normal circumstances all you need to do is type make and then maybe sudo make install | 23:19 |
| StepNjump | Oh hi ActionParsnip | 23:19 |
| StepNjump | long time no see | 23:19 |
| StepNjump | yes well I tried this for the first time and I get error messages | 23:20 |
| MrFricks | can anyone tell me how to turn the passwords in ubuntu?! | 23:20 |
| MrFricks | i hate them! | 23:20 |
| mkanyicy | kheer, figured it out? | 23:20 |
| StepNjump | In users & groups MrFricks | 23:21 |
| botcity | !ot > botcity | 23:21 |
| mkanyicy | MrFricks, what passwords? | 23:21 |
| ubottu | botcity, please see my private message | 23:21 |
| MrFricks | does that turn them off completely for everything? | 23:21 |
| Jordan_U | mkanyicy: Super GRUB2 Disk is only 1.5 meg and the idea is that it allows you to recover your system by letting you actually boot into your installed system, rather than a separate live environment. | 23:21 |
| r000t_laptop | Is there any way I can 1) find the MAC address of my router and 2) point a web browser at the MAC address? | 23:21 |
| thorbj0rn | MrFricks: you want to remove passwords for all users? or are you troubled that you are continually asked to enter a password when you make system changes? | 23:22 |
| StepNjump | r000t_laptop: if you are looking at your public address, go to whatismyip.com | 23:22 |
| MrFricks | mkanyicy: everytime i wnt to install or deinstall or change anything i have to enter a pssword | 23:22 |
| StepNjump | The private IP is usually 192.168.01 | 23:23 |
| StepNjump | 0.1 | 23:23 |
| StepNjump | MrFricks, that's a good thing | 23:23 |
| r000t_laptop | StepNjump, That's the problem. All the other computers can connect to it's IP but I can't | 23:23 |
| MrFricks | thorbj0rn: i don't want to type in any at all | 23:23 |
| StepNjump | It protects you from hackers | 23:23 |
| mkanyicy | MrFricks, what are you using to install, terminal? | 23:23 |
| rumpe1 | MrFricks, then use windows :P | 23:23 |
| StepNjump | It's a nuisance but it's great against viruses | 23:23 |
| thorbj0rn | MrFricks: it's called security; it is the same thing that stops you from being infected with nasty virii. | 23:23 |
| kheer | mkanyicy no i'm not resolved | 23:23 |
| mkanyicy | kheer, that should be an hour | 23:24 |
| StepNjump | Is it set for DHCP or static? | 23:24 |
| MrFricks | thorbj0rn: i'm not bothered about viruses | 23:24 |
| StepNjump | MrFricks, just remove the password then | 23:24 |
| _jay | how do I change my default directory for nautilus? Google is bringing up nada | 23:24 |
| r000t_laptop | StepNjump, All computers are set for DHCP and I've tried with my wireless that has DMZ and I'm currently on ethernet | 23:24 |
| jrib | _jay: default in what sense? | 23:24 |
| _jay | as in, the default for my apps to check first | 23:25 |
| thorbj0rn | MrFricks: from the menu--- System >> Adminstrator >> Users and Groups | 23:25 |
| StepNjump | r000t_laptop so if you ping your router, do you get a reply? | 23:25 |
| MrFricks | StepNjump: you can't /... it won't let you.. that's what i'm asking for | 23:25 |
| r000t_laptop | StepNjump, It fails instantly on all browsers. I get a "cannot connect" message from the browser before I even let go of the enter key | 23:25 |
| r000t_laptop | StepNjump, Yes I always get a very fast ping reply | 23:25 |
| _jay | like, file open then the directory | 23:25 |
| StepNjump | MrFricks, oh sorry. I was under the impression you could. sorry | 23:25 |
| [wito] | Turning off password dialogs is a great idea | 23:25 |
| [wito] | Assuming you are on a whole-disk encrypted machine, not connected to the internet. | 23:25 |
| slash0mega | how can i get ubuntu to recognize plug and play hardware. | 23:25 |
| StepNjump | r000t_laptop | 23:25 |
| StepNjump | You know some routers are weird | 23:26 |
| MrFricks | StepNjump: i tried but it insists on a pass.. mine's now frickin x | 23:26 |
| MrFricks | hate it | 23:26 |
| StepNjump | I know I had that problem at one point and never figured it out, even on DMZ | 23:26 |
| r000t_laptop | StepNjump, This computer has been able to to it before for years.... and other computers can still do it | 23:26 |
| r000t_laptop | All I know is that at one point I set up IPv6 tunneling | 23:26 |

| StepNjump | do you get a reply? | 23:27 |
| mkanyicy | MrFricks, what do you want to disable software on? | 23:27 |
| Kyle__ | dpkg-reconfigure help? Anyone? Anyone? | 23:28 |
| StepNjump | or the equivalent of tracert for linux? | 23:28 |
| mkanyicy | MrFricks, i mean password? | 23:28 |
| josheee12 | are there any equivalent utilities to visualsvn? it's been hell to set up svn on ubuntu. | 23:28 |
| thorbj0rn | mkanyicy: he's looking to remove the SUDO password prompt / dialog | 23:28 |
| r000t_laptop | StepNjump, All websites I ping reply quickly. I can also access them | 23:29 |
| MrFricks | mkanyicy: everything.. i don't want to have to enter a password for anything... not to logon not to install not to anything | 23:29 |
| StepNjump | r000t_laptop maybe you could try to update your firmware but I doubt this will change anything | 23:29 |
| r000t_laptop | MrFricks, Log in as root | 23:29 |
| noah | hey, i just installed some update to ubuntu and when i start it it just shows the ubuntu 10.10 loading screen then jsut goes to a screen with a blinking underscore, any ideas on a fix? | 23:29 |
| StepNjump | So what's the problem? Sorry | 23:29 |
| MrFricks | but my permissions are set to root i thin | 23:29 |
| r000t_laptop | StepNjump, How do I update the firmware if I can't get at the web interface? | 23:29 |
| cryptodan | using your computer logged in as root is a bad idea | 23:29 |
| r000t_laptop | MrFricks, Just set your password to the space bar | 23:29 |
| mkanyicy | MrFricks, if you login automatically, you might get keyring prompts | 23:29 |
| r000t_laptop | CryonicCore, he wants to not use passwords for anything... I think him running as root isn't a giant security leap for him | 23:30 |
| StepNjump | Oh! you mean you cannot get to your gateway interface? | 23:30 |
| mkanyicy | MrFricks, you can disable password prompts when using 'sudo' | 23:30 |
| guest__ | hey i'm having problems with my ubuntu software centre can anyone help me? | 23:30 |
| r000t_laptop | StepNjump, Yeah. Browsers won't load it so I can't get at it. Other computers do, however | 23:30 |
| MrFricks | rOOOt_laptop: how do i do that? and do i always have to do it? | 23:30 |
| botcity | slash0mega: ubuntu supports plug an play anyway! if you have a problem then ask. | 23:30 |
| mkanyicy | MrFricks, open terminal | 23:30 |
| StepNjump | r000t_laptop well, why don't u just use another computer to do your administrative work ? | 23:31 |
| MrFricks | r000t_laptop: but i still have to press space! | 23:31 |
| StepNjump | It's weird though | 23:31 |
| r000t_laptop | MrFricks, You are obviously trolling. | 23:31 |
| r000t_laptop | GTFO | 23:31 |
| StepNjump | lol | 23:31 |
| tzaeru | mh, any random suggestions for a C++ IDE? Eclipse is a bit slowish, whilest CodeLite would need updated ubuntu (something I don't feel to do quite yet) and Geany has useless project management. | 23:31 |
| StepNjump | trolling.. you must be uk | 23:31 |
| r000t_laptop | Serious... you want no passwords for anything.... and there really isn't any reason why | 23:31 |
| mkanyicy | MrFricks, then run 'sudo visudo' and search for the line that starts with '%admin' and then make sure it is now like '%admin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL' | 23:31 |

| mkanyicy | StepNjump, 'sudo make' | 23:52 |
| mkanyicy | StepNjump, exactly like that | 23:52 |
| StepNjump | sudo make and that's it? or it has to be followed by the file name? | 23:53 |
