fr00g | No, the delete this panel option is greyed | 00:00 |
jrib | mycosys: I think (hope) this is just a one time thing | 00:00 |
jrib | kylemm: « gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf » | 00:00 |
BiPolah | fr00g: Possibly because it's the last panel and it's how you logout/add new panels/etc | 00:00 |
alpha7 | jrib for example i wanna install chrome and tweetdeck and i wanna write up a script to download the file and then install it . | 00:00 |
kylemm | jrib: okay something popped up. Want me to post that? | 00:00 |
alpha7 | all in one script | 00:00 |
WACOMalt | how can I make it so when a user creates a file, all 3 groups he is in have access to that file? | 00:01 |
fr00g | No, I'm using wingpanel | 00:01 |
fr00g | I don't need the panel | 00:01 |
WACOMalt | my wacomalt user is in primary group admin, but also in www, and ftp. When I create a file, that file is only in group admin, and this www and ftp services dont have access. :( | 00:01 |
jrib | alpha7: do you install these things through apt-get/Software Center/Synaptic? Or some othe rway? | 00:01 |
thirtytwobitrig | have trendnet wireless router, forwarded port 51413 from router, but still closed in transmission. any ideas? | 00:01 |
jrib | kylemm: yes | 00:01 |
alpha7 | jrib other way | 00:01 |
=== lacus is now known as lake | ||
jrib | alpha7: what other way? | 00:01 |
kylemm | jrib: http://pastebin.com/1Td6yj0B | 00:01 |
jrib | kylemm: move on to the next step | 00:01 |
mycosys | kylemm - buy something like this http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Western-Digital-80GB-IDE-Hard-Drive-/290533963539?pt=AU_Components&hash=item43a52c7713 | 00:01 |
alpha7 | jrib through wget , then with chmod +x etc | 00:02 |
BiPolah | fr00g: PERHAPS uninstall the gnome-panel and gnome-panel data packages. But I'm really not sure, so it'd be better to get a second opinion. | 00:02 |
jrib | alpha7: you know chrome probably has a ppa? That's a better way | 00:02 |
thirtytwobitrig | & it times out error in Canyouseeme.org, btw | 00:02 |
alpha7 | jrib yes i know thats just a example | 00:02 |
kylemm | jrib: when i log into tty1 by pressing ctrl-alt-f1 my screen just freezes and i cant do nothing.... Is that the step? and i just restart x then? | 00:02 |
BiPolah | Mycosys: He has a 16GB flash drive he can use. He doesn't want to install since he might damage his other drives, despite recommendations to dismount or even disconnect them | 00:02 |
alpha7 | jrib and i don't like the chrome ver i want the chromium web browser<get lastest updates | 00:03 |
mycosys | god - grab a whole pc from the side of the road and go at it | 00:03 |
kryl | hi | 00:03 |
mycosys | !hi | 00:03 |
jrib | alpha7: anyway, you can write a bash script like this: "#!/bin/bash" without quotes on the first line, then the commands you want on each line. But you really shouldn't be installing much software outside of APT. I bet there's a ppa for chromium or chrome or whatever it is | 00:03 |
WACOMalt | how can I makea file accessible by multiple groups? | 00:04 |
jrib | kylemm: what happens when you execute « sudo service gdm stop »? | 00:04 |
jrib | WACOMalt: ACLs | 00:04 |
Starminn | alpha7: Not sure what you're trying to do, but Chromium is in the repos and you can download Chrome for the Chrome site (or the PPA) | 00:04 |
mycosys | why would you need a ppa for chrome??? | 00:04 |
kylemm | jrib: i thought when i activate the driver thats what it does? or do i actually input that into terminal | 00:04 |
mycosys | sudo apt-get install chromium | 00:04 |
Pici | mycosys: Because some people like running the beta or dev channels. | 00:04 |
WACOMalt | ACLs? | 00:04 |
Starminn | alpha7: Yeah, what mycosys said oughta do it | 00:05 |
mickster04 | 65 6565 /away | 00:05 |
mickster04 | sorry | 00:05 |
alpha7 | thanks | 00:05 |
jrib | WACOMalt: Access Control Lists (man setfacl; man getfacl). Note you need to add the "acl" option to the partitions options in fstab | 00:05 |
jrib | kylemm: everything I typed in «» is a command | 00:05 |
theadmin | how to see if KMS is enabled currently? and how disable it? | 00:05 |
* WACOMalt drools | 00:05 | |
kylemm | jrib: okay lemme do it | 00:05 |
WACOMalt | over my head :/ any way to do this with typical chown or chmod? | 00:06 |
jrib | WACOMalt: (or you could just create a new group...) | 00:06 |
WACOMalt | this is for ftp and www | 00:06 |
theadmin | since Ati is crap with KMS, how to see if KMS is enabled currently? and how disable it...? | 00:06 |
WACOMalt | need to be separate groups | 00:06 |
fr00g | Can anyone tell me how to modify a gnome session? | 00:06 |
jrib | WACOMalt: then you need to use ACLs. Or you can create the wwwftp group and put members of both those other groups in there | 00:06 |
rami1983 | hello, how to edit open with menu in ubuntu?? | 00:06 |
jrib | fr00g: be more specific. Modify how? | 00:06 |
PingaR0x | hi anyone have a "cookbook" for notebooks with 2 GPUS ? like a dell vostro 3300? | 00:07 |
jrib | rami1983: there should be "other program" option as the last choice. Or you can right click -> PROPERTIES -> open with tab | 00:07 |
WACOMalt | would just creating the wwftp group allow the vsftpd and http services the same access they had'? | 00:07 |
alpha7 | How i bypass 'Do you want to install' yes or no | 00:07 |
jrib | WACOMalt: no, you'd need to add the user each of those daemons run as to the group I imagine | 00:07 |
Gnea | alpha7: make a selection | 00:08 |
jrib | alpha7: press "yes" | 00:08 |
jrib | or "no" I guess | 00:08 |
alpha7 | example like sudo apt-get install chromium -y or /y something like that | 00:08 |
rami1983 | jrib: i just want to remove programs that i don't have anymore like Wine | 00:08 |
Gnea | alpha7: so, if you type apt-get by itself and press enter, you should see an option for that | 00:08 |
fr00g | jrib, I want to edit the programs that start when I log in | 00:08 |
WACOMalt | ugh... how is this usually managed surely this isnt an odd situation, needing ftp server, and http server to be able to access the same files.. is it not this way by default? I figured I had just changed something from the default | 00:09 |
jrib | rami1983: they should go away when you uninstall them, but if not, then you can use the methods I suggested above | 00:09 |
kryl | I can't setup my graphic mode since boot in ubuntu 10.10 I use lvm+root crypt , I change GRUB_GFXMODE=1280x800x32 (after verify vbeinfo) in /etc/default/grub && update-grub but it doens't success ... | 00:09 |
jrib | WACOMalt: I've told you how it's done | 00:09 |
kryl | where is my mistake? :) | 00:09 |
Gnea | kryl: you missed a step. | 00:09 |
WACOMalt | I know, I am just asking why is it not like that by default? | 00:09 |
kryl | Gnea, which one ? | 00:09 |
WACOMalt | the defautl setup makes files unusable by the other group from how they were added | 00:09 |
Gnea | kryl: after you edit /etc/default/grub, you need to make the changes known to /boot/grub/grub.cfg, because update-grub reads from /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 00:10 |
jrib | WACOMalt: well I don't see why it would be /more/ sensible to assume that ftp and apache should have access to the same files... | 00:10 |
WACOMalt | upload file to /var/www/ expect it to be viewable... sound good to me? I am not seeing the error. | 00:10 |
jrib | !startup | fr00g | 00:10 |
ubottu | fr00g: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 00:10 |
jrib | fr00g: is that what you want? | 00:10 |
kryl | Gnea, really, I thinked it was the contrary | 00:10 |
Gnea | kryl: so it should go like this: a) edit /etc/default/grub, b) run grub-mkconfig /boot/grub/grub.cfg, c) grub-install /dev/sdX | 00:11 |
kryl | it's grubpc | 00:11 |
Gnea | grubpc has nothing to do with the procedure. | 00:11 |
fr00g | jrib, there is no System>Preferences>Startup | 00:11 |
WACOMalt | also, how come when I create a folder, lets say with 775 permissions, for the group www, why when files get added to that, can those files be NOT from www? | 00:11 |
jrib | WACOMalt: because files get created by your user and your user's primary group is not www | 00:12 |
fr00g | jrib, there's only startup application | 00:12 |
kryl | Gnea, when I edit /etc/default/grub , and run update-grub , it create the file /boot/grub/grub.cfg ! | 00:12 |
fr00g | s | 00:12 |
Gnea | WACOMalt: the root directory for it should be owned by www, plus the process that creates them should be run as www user | 00:12 |
jrib | fr00g: use that | 00:12 |
WACOMalt | if I set my user's primary group to www, will that fix my issues? | 00:12 |
Gnea | kryl: and yet, the process isn't working correctly, so try mine. | 00:12 |
WACOMalt | I can still use FTP even though I am not in THAT primary group | 00:13 |
kryl | :-( | 00:13 |
kryl | well I edit the file grub.cfg | 00:13 |
jrib | WACOMalt: use ACLs, that's the best way imo. If you change your primary group, EVERYTHING you create will belong to that group including stuff in your home | 00:13 |
kryl | and I can see what I need for the resolution | 00:13 |
Gnea | kryl: don't give me a frowny face, you came here asking for help and now you're trying to tell me that my help is incorrect? | 00:14 |
kryl | if loadfont /grub/unicode.pf2 ; then; set gfxmode=1280x800x32; .... | 00:14 |
rami1983 | jrib: can u please recommend me a good system cleaner. i saw now a lot of hidden files from programs that i've deleted | 00:14 |
jrib | rami1983: I wouldn't worry about hidden files. They don't hurt anything, usually don't use up too much room, and if you ever decide to use a program again, your settings are retained | 00:15 |
WACOMalt | jrib. Ok thank you for your help. I guess I am just missing how the default setup is ever useful :P do people usually log in to their ftp and upload files AS www? Or do most people really use ACLs? | 00:15 |
kryl | Gnea, no it's just because I don't what I need to edit in /boot/grub/grub.cfg ! | 00:15 |
jrib | WACOMalt: I use ACLs... I imagine a lot of people don't care who owns what in /var/www/ since files are world-readable anyway by default so apache won't have any trouble reading them and serving them | 00:16 |
Guest56844 | disconnect | 00:16 |
kryl | Gnea, so it puts the following line actually by automatic : if loadfont /grub/unicode.pf2 ; then; set gfxmode=1280x800x32;load_video;insmod gfxterm;fi | 00:16 |
Gnea | kryl: don't kno what else to suggest, I told you what you should try running, if you're not going to run it and keep complaining, then there's not much more of a point to continue. | 00:16 |
Gnea | *know | 00:16 |
WACOMalt | jrib, mine were not | 00:16 |
WACOMalt | error 500 | 00:16 |
WACOMalt | copied via ftp | 00:16 |
Gnea | kryl: all of that is gibberish to me, just run the command | 00:16 |
WACOMalt | no idea why | 00:16 |
jrib | WACOMalt: well what permissions are on the files? | 00:16 |
kryl | it's allready done ;) | 00:17 |
WACOMalt | it was locked to all but the creater, but it shouldnt have been. It was just one file, I just figured it would happen again | 00:17 |
Gnea | kryl: so did it work correctly or not? | 00:17 |
jrib | WACOMalt: that may be something you need to configure in your ftpd. What does « ls -ld /var/www/TYPICAL_FILE » return? | 00:17 |
WACOMalt | with the << ? | 00:17 |
jrib | WACOMalt: without | 00:17 |
chriss_ | hello people can someone help pls tryin to mount my windows into ubuntu and I get this messege | 00:17 |
chriss_ | NTFS signature is missing. Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': Invalid argument The device '/dev/sda1' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS. Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around? owner@ubuntu:~$ | 00:18 |
mycosys | alpha7 - yes its sudo apt-get install -y chromium | 00:18 |
WACOMalt | No such file or directory :P kidding, it says index.html | 00:18 |
Gnea | chriss_: can you pastebin the output of this command please: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda | 00:18 |
mycosys | man apt-get should help :) | 00:18 |
WACOMalt | oops | 00:18 |

delinquentme | anyone successfully installed SC2 on ubuntu?? | 00:18 |
kryl | Gnea, I will restart ... | 00:18 |
WACOMalt | -rwxrwxr-x | 00:18 |

kryl | see u soon ;) | 00:18 |
WACOMalt | but thats after I manually changed it | 00:18 |
chriss_ | Gnea yes | 00:18 |
jrib | WACOMalt: well that's not helpful :) | 00:18 |
mycosys | can try synaptic or aptitude if you want to see your optionis of what is there | 00:19 |
jrib | !enter | WACOMalt | 00:19 |
ubottu | WACOMalt: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 00:19 |
WACOMalt | let me copy a new one over | 00:19 |
rami1983 | do the touchscreens work well with ubuntu? i plan to buy a new screentouch monitor | 00:19 |
mycosys | typing "sudo apt-get chr" and hitting tab 2ce would have told you all pachages starting with chr | 00:19 |
Gnea | rami1983: there are a variety of touchscreens that seem to work to varying degrees of success with Ubuntu | 00:20 |
hilarie | Why can't I run? hilarie@ebilKitty:~$ sudo aptitude install nmapfe | 00:20 |
hilarie | sudo: aptitude: command not found | 00:20 |
rami1983 | gnea: multitouch too? | 00:20 |
Kazilla | delinquentme: SC2 is developed for windows and Mac, so what do you think | 00:21 |
Gnea | rami1983: I think it depends on the level of support | 00:21 |
aeon-ltd | rami1983: adding to Gnea's response, in general unless you've got a few hours - days to research before, and a few hours later to google/hack together a working/semi-working solution don't bother | 00:21 |
WACOMalt | ugh, command to start vsftpd? | 00:21 |
Gnea | hilarie: what is the output of this command: echo $PATH | 00:21 |
chriss_ | Gnea here it is http://pastebins.com/index.php?show=559 | 00:22 |
rami1983 | aeon-ltd: well, i've googled but to be sure i am asking the experts... | 00:22 |
hilarie | @Gnea it install the GUI for nmap | 00:22 |
BiPolah | Delinquentme: AppDB says it works fine usually. | 00:22 |
kryl | hi again | 00:22 |
hilarie | A google for the 1st command, gave me sudo apt-get install nmapfe | 00:23 |
aeon-ltd | rami1983: if you dualboot windows at least you'll have a backup use ... | 00:23 |
kryl | Gnea, sorry but it doesn't work :-( | 00:23 |
Gnea | chriss_: okay, you'll need to select /dev/sda2, not /dev/sda1 | 00:23 |
Gnea | kryl: I see, could you please pastebin the output of the dmesg command? | 00:23 |
kryl | Gnea, if I use "c" at boot and type vbeinfo I have a bad graphical mode. | 00:23 |
chriss_ | Gnea yes I did that but same thing | 00:23 |
rami1983 | aeon-ltd: yes, but linux will be my main os | 00:23 |
kryl | Gnea, I can see the expected graphical mode in /boot/grub/menu.cfg, but don't understand why it cannot change to the good one ! | 00:24 |
Gnea | chriss_: what command are you using, exactly? | 00:24 |
WACOMalt | jrib: a file I just copied got created as such: -rw------- 1 wacomalt admin 235102 2011-02-14 00:24 1281501670101.jpg | 00:25 |

robertzaccour | whats the difference between low latency and realtime kernel? which would be better to pick for audio/video editing? should I choose both? | 00:25 |
WACOMalt | realtime if you have it | 00:25 |
WACOMalt | but that got stopped I think | 00:25 |

WACOMalt | use both what? Jrib? | 00:26 |
robertzaccour | WACOMalt, low latency and realtime both | 00:26 |
jrib | WACOMalt: change umask on your ftpd | 00:26 |
WACOMalt | oh no idea | 00:26 |
WACOMalt | can you tell me how? Or I can look it up, you've helped me a ton already | 00:27 |

=== andrea is now known as Guest4126 | ||
WACOMalt | vsftpd | 00:27 |
Gnea | kryl: yeah, it doesn't look like any of those options got passed to the kernel at boot-time, and I'm not too savvy with /boot/grub/menu.cfg | 00:27 |

digirak | i am getting this warning | 00:29 |
digirak | sudo: unable to resolve host localhost.localdomain | 00:29 |
Gnea | chriss_: alright, it looks like you're trying to use the limited ntfs filesystem driver, you may want to use the drivers that enables full operation like this: sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/windows -t ntfs-3g | 00:29 |
digirak | any idea what i could do? | 00:29 |
kryl | Gnea, if loadfont /grub/unicode.pf2 ; then ... by default this file is not present, I try to copy the file from /usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2 but it changes nothing ... | 00:29 |
jrib | digirak: pastebin your /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname, and output of « hostname » | 00:29 |
kryl | Gnea, perhaps there is a problem in initrd cause I use a special configuration : root+lvm crypted ! | 00:30 |
Gnea | kryl: if it thinks that /boot/ is / then it should work | 00:30 |
Gnea | kryl: that could be it, I tend to stay away from the encryption stuff as I really don't have anything important to hide from the authorities | 00:30 |
chriss_ | Gnea same thing still won't mount | 00:30 |
kryl | Gnea, :) | 00:30 |
Gnea | chriss_: have you tried fscking it? | 00:31 |
digirak | jrib: i have a file named hostname | 00:31 |
jrib | digirak: pastebin your /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname, and output of « hostname » | 00:31 |
digirak | jrib: is that what ur aksing | 00:31 |
chriss_ | Gnea no I have not is there instructions on that | 00:31 |
Jordan_U | kryl: Yes, copy the font file to /boot/grub/ and add GRUB_FONT=/boot/grub/unicode.pf2 to /etc/default/grub | 00:31 |

clase | hey | 00:36 |
kylemm | who was helping me earlier? | 00:36 |

WACOMalt | jrib I dont even see that line in my config | 00:37 |
WACOMalt | what permissions should I set the umask to? | 00:37 |

WACOMalt | 775? (sorry for enters again... T_T habbit) | 00:37 |
digirak | jrib: i instaled it off a CD | 00:37 |
jrib | WACOMalt: umask subtracts permissions | 00:37 |
digirak | jrib: ubuntu 10.10 | 00:37 |
chriss_ | Gnea oh ok and then I'll have to mount again right ? | 00:37 |
Gnea | chriss_: with NTFS in particular, it will not mount at all if there's a discontinuous set of data on the disk | 00:37 |
kylemm | jrib: when i stop gdm my screen freezes and i can only see my background, all my icons everything disappears | 00:37 |

rbil | wish I would have known that google-gadgets broken in 10.04. Wouldn' t have upgraded at this time. | 01:19 |
TroN-0074 | disk utility is already installed in liveCD why would you use gparted? | 01:19 |
a_p3rson | @rbil - Go to 10.10? | 01:19 |

rbnswartz | rbil: I've used it in 10.10 it seems to work well | 01:20 |
rewt | what have you got to lose? | 01:20 |
TroN-0074 | thanks a_p3rson I was looking for use only gnome native applications that is why I wanted to use evolution | 01:20 |
a_p3rson | @rbil - It's the newest version, you're more likely to get help there | 01:20 |
rbil | I thought LTS was a safe bet. if broken in LTS, probably don't work in later version | 01:21 |
crazybrain | how to resize Ubuntu Linux which was originally installed inside Windows?????? | 01:21 |

xangua | crazybrain: because wubi sucks¿ | 01:23 |
skutr3 | can someone help me i have no audio in ubuntu....................... | 01:23 |
Jordan_U | crazybrain: It's a difficult, not well (if at all) documented, manual procedure. | 01:23 |
a_p3rson | @crazybrain - Wubi is not the original way to install ubuntu. It is listed as experimental for a reason, | 01:23 |
crazybrain | why is that so? | 01:24 |
TroN-0074 | crazybrain you can go to your control panel and remove the ubuntu installation you did in windows and then run wubi again and select more room for it | 01:24 |
a_p3rson | Because OS's are not made to be nested inside eachother | 01:24 |
a_p3rson | I reccomend making a partition in windows, and then using the LiveCD install it to that partition | 01:24 |
TroN-0074 | or do a partition on your hard drive and do a full installation there | 01:24 |
xangua | skutr3: dificult to help if you just keep repeating that all day and don't give any useful information | 01:24 |
a_p3rson | Then, if Windows pukes, Ubuntu is unharmed | 01:25 |
TroN-0074 | yes | 01:25 |
skutr3 | xangua: i have no audio | 01:25 |

rbil | anyone using google-gadgets in Ubuntu 10.04? | 01:36 |
yamaha147 | Can anyone reccomend a site that teaches Ubuntu (linux) from the very beginning and is easy to follow? I know NOTHING about it. I do not know the cmds or where to start. I am using Backtrack but don't know where to go from there. I follow Youtube videos but thats really it. Anybody??? | 01:37 |
iceroot_ | uRock: the rest of the system will be out of updates, that is a bigger problem then only chrome | 01:37 |
gnewb | uRock: What iceroot stated is of more importance | 01:37 |
uRock | iceroot, I only use karmic in a 32bit vbox for packettracer and I'll need the browser to download stuff from the Cisco site | 01:38 |

crazybrain | hey anyone when i try to install any software it says Waiting for Synaptic to exit and nothing happens | 01:38 |
Jordan_U | uRock: You shouldn't continue to use an OS without security updates either way... | 01:38 |
uRock | rbil, I used google gadgets for about a week and didn't like so I uninstalled | 01:39 |
iceroot_ | uRock: if chrome is not coming from the ubuntu-repos (maybe a chrome repo or ppa) we dont know if chrome will get updates. | 01:39 |
uRock | k, thanx fellas, was just wondering | 01:39 |
Jordan_U | crazybrain: Have you quit synaptic? | 01:39 |
rbil | uRock, well at least it ran for u. Is that 32bit Ubuntu 10.04? | 01:39 |
uRock | no, 64bit | 01:40 |
crazybrain | jordan_u i havent even opened it | 01:40 |
Jordan_U | crazybrain: Does "pgrep synaptic" output anything? | 01:40 |
gnewb | EOL means exactly that, End of Life, so update $$ upgrade and that other stuff to keep a stable kernel in operation. | 01:40 |
uRock | rbil, actually it was a while back. Could have been while I was using only 32bit for a 32bit only program that I must use | 01:41 |
crazybrain | Jordan_U where in Terminal?? | 01:41 |
uRock | gnewb, its a vbox, not that worried about security within it | 01:41 |
Jordan_U | crazybrain: Yes. | 01:41 |
iceroot_ | uRock: dont use an os without security patches, doesnt matter if it is a vm or not | 01:41 |
_skpl | eol does not mean end of life | 01:41 |
_skpl | . | 01:42 |
_skpl | thats dumb | 01:42 |
crazybrain | Jordan_u it says 2361 | 01:42 |
iceroot_ | uRock: if you just need simple thinks, use a lts-version of ubuntu | 01:42 |
_skpl | hehe. | 01:42 |
itaylor57 | state of denial is in Egypt LOL | 01:42 |
Jordan_U | _skpl: That is exactly what EOL stands for. | 01:42 |

crazybrain | Jordan_U ????? | 01:43 |
itaylor57 | i was making a reference to not accepting the eol timelines | 01:43 |
Jordan_U | crazybrain: Ok, then synaptic is running. Try to find the window with synaptic and close it. | 01:43 |
iszak | How do I tar up my home directory without the dot files? | 01:43 |
iszak | i tried tar --exclude=.* but it failed to wokr | 01:43 |
iceroot_ | iszak: the dot-files are the important ones from home | 01:44 |
crazybrain | Jordan_u its not opened | 01:44 |
gnewb | uRock: Ok, there is still the kernel issues, so update as much as you can until you upgrade. | 01:44 |
itaylor57 | so my comment was very on topic however much it when over you head Jordan_U | 01:44 |
uRock | iszak, mount it with the livecd then rightclick the home folder and click compress | 01:44 |
crazybrain | Jordan_U:Only Ubuntu software center is opened | 01:44 |
Jordan_U | crazybrain: pgrep says otherwise. It might be another program that uses synaptic, but synaptic is running. | 01:45 |
iszak | iceroot_, I know. | 01:45 |
iszak | uRock, not an option, any other suggestions? | 01:45 |

uRock | gnewb, thanks, I'll disable the internet connection when April rolls around. Lucid uses a bit more RAM and gets slow when I only allocate ~300MB RAM to it | 01:46 |
Jayro | tooo lagggy | 01:46 |
iszak | that's Java for you. | 01:46 |
intel352 | iszak: ah, good news. okay, have you ever used Netbeans to edit a file that you've accessed using Nautilus' ability to browse via SSH? | 01:46 |
Jayro | yea lol java isnt the greatest | 01:46 |
uRock | gbrainy | 01:46 |
iszak | intel352, unfortunately not, only used gedit for that. | 01:46 |
Jayro | lolol | 01:47 |
Jayro | no thanks uRock | 01:47 |
iszak | intel352, what's the problem anyway? | 01:47 |
iceroot_ | iszak: http://osdir.com/ml/yellowdog.general/2004-03/msg00588.html | 01:47 |
j_ayen_green | anyone seen when invoking a domain name on local server with index.html, it's fine, but without, it tries to download iGAADsuh.~.part | 01:47 |
iszak | iceroot_, didn't work | 01:47 |
intel352 | iszak: Netbeans becomes quite laggy when live editing the file. watching system monitor shows network activity while edits are occurring, and the activity stops when edits stop | 01:47 |
=== MC8 is now known as MC8|away | ||
intel352 | so I assume it's saving to a file stored in the same location, the changes that are occurring live? | 01:48 |
iszak | intel352, it's probably because it's file monitoring for changes? | 01:48 |
iszak | intel352, it could be that, but editing over SSH can be somewhat slow. | 01:49 |
iszak | often what editors do is download the file then push it only upon save, perhaps netbeans isn't doing this. | 01:49 |
dragonstone | anyone familiar with bacula? I'm having trouble getting my second client to backup. | 01:49 |
intel352 | iszak: ah, very possible. so I would likely be best off using either a different editor for such situations, or a non-mounted approach (via a normal SFTP client I reckon) | 01:49 |
intel352 | iszak: thanks for discussing, cheers :-) | 01:50 |

DTNposix | mickster04, that is windows. Grub is a bootloader. Windows has its own bootloader.

DTNposix | mickster04... jeasus christ.... boot a windows computer from a Ubuntu flash drive... Then type grub-install /dev/sda;update-grub /dev/sda; It will replace the windows bootloader with the grub bootloader and the windows will still boot. You can use this techniqe when you replace a hard disk where the manufacturer placed the quick restore partition on the drive. You copy the quick restore partition to another disk, then use the grub-install updat | 02:07 |
DTNposix | e-grub to boot the windows recovery... It also works on any windows disk which won't boot because the boot sector was destroyed. | 02:07 |

alex568775 | pylix: no | 02:10 |
DTNposix | Jordan_U, mickster04, it works. Trust me. I've done it. I simply copied a windows recovery partition to a new 12GB NTFS partition on a new hard disk, grub-install /dev/sda, update-grub /dev/sda.. reboot, pull memory stick, boot to windows recovery. | 02:10 |
mickster04 | alex568775: in that you can format the ubuntu drive, then install grub, and it will mostly likely boot windows | 02:10 |

rbil | this is the first time in years an upgrade has screwed up so badly and broken so much | 02:12 |
alex568775 | mickster04: o | 02:12 |
mickster04 | rbil: you on 10.04? | 02:12 |
rbil | i can't believe it. Ubuntu used to be such a dream | 02:12 |
mickster04 | rbil: 10.10 is out, and it's always better to do a clean install | 02:12 |
rbil | yes mickster04 I have 10.04 | 02:12 |
uRock | rbil, I never do upgrades. Clean install FTW! | 02:12 |
alex568775 | mickster04: so does that uninstall grub? | 02:12 |
gnewb | alex568775: Or here> http://crunchbanglinux.org/forums/topic/9978/how-can-i-delete-linux-partition-and-then-fix-my-mbr-without-cd/ | 02:13 |
mickster04 | alex568775: no, it removes it, then you need a windows disk to repair the MBR | 02:13 |
rbil | uRock: I don't believe the upgrade was the prob. I believe that 10.04 itself is the prob | 02:13 |
mickster04 | alex568775: see gnewb's suggestion | 02:13 |
alex568775 | mickster04: k | 02:13 |
rbil | I'm sure a clean install would have produce the same broken results | 02:13 |
mickster04 | rbil: what are you using? | 02:13 |
uRock | 10.04 was God's gift to Linux | 02:13 |
DTNposix | mickster04: you should reinstall grub2 to fix the problems with the windows boot. Or you can search for assistance in #Windows. | 02:13 |
uRock | 10.10 was the promotion | 02:13 |
rbil | mickster04: what do u mean what I'm sing | 02:13 |
rbil | i'm now using 10.04 | 02:14 |
DTNposix | mickster, sorry..... that was for rbill | 02:14 |
rbil | upgraded from 9.10 | 02:14 |
brandonj | I'm having trouble booting, and it isn't any of the usual problems that I've encountered previously | 02:14 |
RxDx | why my nm-applet uses A LOT of ram? | 02:14 |
Gnea | RxDx: how much is it using? | 02:14 |
droidftw | hi booted on one of my old laptops and it installed fine but when i get to the login screen it logins in but right away takes me back to log in again | 02:14 |
rbil | just apps that used to work no longer do and I really depend on them working and no answer anywhere in google | 02:14 |
uRock | rbil, I had to do a true clean install when I went from 910 to 10.04, there were to many conf files causing problems in my /home | 02:15 |
droidftw | any help | 02:15 |
RxDx | Gnea, 276mb right now.. sometimes its over than 500mb | 02:15 |
DTNposix | I've got Ubuntu installed on my Android telephone. It boots up the X interface.... however when I try to run gnome-termial I get gtk_accel_map_unlock_path: assertion `entry != NULL && entry->lock_count > 0' failed | 02:15 |
jdogg24 | how too mount NTFS drive in xubuntu??? | 02:15 |
droidftw | its a toshiba laptop with a amd proccesor | 02:15 |
rbil | uRock: tried removing the configs and no go. it's nto the configs | 02:15 |
rbil | not | 02:15 |
Gnea | RxDx: how did you determine that? | 02:15 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: Do you have an Ubuntu LiveCD/USB you can boot from? | 02:15 |
droidftw | any help? | 02:15 |
alex568775 | jordan_u: yes | 02:15 |
RxDx | Gnea, ??? i saw on the system monitor | 02:16 |
uRock | droidftw, System> Administration> Users & Groups to tell it to require a login | 02:16 |
jdogg24 | how too mount NTFS drive in xubuntu??? | 02:16 |
ardchoille | uRock: you mean System > Administration > Login screen? | 02:16 |
brandonj | When I try to boot Ubuntu I only get a blinking cursor. It isn't a problem with grub, gentoo & windows boot fine. The UUID of the disk for ubuntu root is correct in grub.cfg. Booting with 'debug' kernel option produces no output. The kernel isn't writing any logs to the drive. | 02:16 |
rcmaehl | jdogg24: do you have the package for ntfs support installed? | 02:17 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: yes | 02:17 |
uRock | ardchoille, no System> Administration> Users & Groups | 02:17 |
droidftw | someone please help me | 02:17 |
whisperkiller | can someone please help me figure out why i cannot enable my wireless | 02:17 |
droidftw | i can get past the login screen | 02:17 |
rcmaehl | whisperkiller: on which distro? | 02:17 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: Boot into the Ubuntu LiveCD and run this: sudo software-properties-gtk -e universe; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install mbr; sudo install-mbr /dev/sda". If /dev/sda is not the drive with windows then replace that with the correct value, but it should *never* be a partition like /dev/sda1. | 02:17 |
rbil | anyway to roll back to 9.10? | 02:17 |
uRock | that is where one tells the system to require a password | 02:17 |
droidftw | i login an like 20 seconds later it takes me back to the login screen | 02:17 |
whisperkiller | ubuntu 10.10 | 02:17 |
droidftw | cant | 02:18 |
droidftw | get past | 02:18 |
whisperkiller | it says wireless disabled and i can find no options to enable it | 02:18 |
ardchoille | uRock: Ah, I see what you mean | 02:18 |
uRock | Kool | 02:18 |
mickster04 | rbil clean install....like you should do normally anyway | 02:18 |
Chipzzz | jdogg24: mount -t ntfs /path/to/drive | 02:18 |
rcmaehl | whisperkiller: Ubuntu 10.10 has some wifi problems (see the release notes) and some wifi devices will not be able to be used | 02:18 |
ChogyDan | whisperkiller: did you try right click? | 02:18 |
Gnea | RxDx: good chance you're reading it wrong - does it say Virtual Memory or Memory at the top of the column? | 02:18 |
droidftw | hello | 02:18 |
rbil | mickster04: ouch! :-) | 02:19 |
whisperkiller | it worked fine with the live cd | 02:19 |
rcmaehl | whisperkiller: also did you try rightclicking or adding your wifi network manually? | 02:19 |
* uRock didn't know that the 10.x has Login in the menus | 02:19 | |
* uRock sees it now | 02:19 | |
mickster04 | rbil: yeah, well upgradews don't work too well in windows either :/ | 02:19 |
Jordan_U | nit-wit: So basically my instructions are very similar to what you can do with lilo to install an MS style (chainload first active partition) mbr, just not using lilo specifically. | 02:19 |
mickster04 | rbil: but seeing as you're probably clean installing anywa, try 1010 | 02:19 |
rcmaehl | whisperkiller: the wireless restrictions for problems take effect after the instal | 02:19 |
RxDx | Gnea, memory.. between ID and Waiting Channel tabs | 02:19 |
Chipzzz | jdogg24: sorry... mount -t ntfs device /path/to/drive | 02:19 |
rcmaehl | install* | 02:19 |
rbil | mickster04: like I said don't believe its the upgrade that's the prob. packages that I rely on, don't work in 10.04 | 02:19 |
uRock | rbil, try 10.10 | 02:20 |
Gnea | RxDx: what's your uptime? on a laptop? doing a lot of wireless? or just wired? | 02:20 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: so do i enter that into terminal? | 02:20 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: Yes. | 02:20 |
OldParr | what is the root's password when triying ubuntu from the cd, in the option that makes no changes to computer? | 02:20 |
whisperkiller | ok that has got to be the dumbest thing ive ever heard....if it worked on live cd and not after that means its something thats going to be patched right? | 02:20 |
rbil | ok will try 10.10, but have my doubts. why would they leave broken apps in a LTS version? | 02:20 |
jdogg24 | i cant get on line on xubuntu i use dial up xubuntu doesnt have dialup prog so i got all the pkgs i need now i have to write them to the xubuntu partition im using the kubuntu live cd to download the file but know cant get them over to the xubuntu drive | 02:20 |
Jordan_U | !root | OldParr | 02:20 |
ubottu | OldParr: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 02:20 |
nit-wit | Jordan_U, cool do you have a link to this method? | 02:20 |
RxDx | Gnea, about 2hours i think... yes, a laptop.. wireless connection | 02:21 |
rcmaehl | whisperkiller: yes it will be patched later on | 02:21 |
bhankins | Did anyone else get any bad updates yesterday? Can't boot now, F1 is a blinking cursor and F7 has a ureadahead error. | 02:21 |
RxDx | Gnea, write now more than 1gb ram r used | 02:21 |
whisperkiller | what is the eta on a patch for that? | 02:21 |
uRock | OldParr you shouldn't need a password when using the LiveCD | 02:21 |
RxDx | right* | 02:21 |
whisperkiller | because this is a clients laptop | 02:21 |
Gnea | RxDx: 10.04 or 10.10? | 02:21 |
RxDx | 10.10 | 02:21 |
rcmaehl | whisperkiller: try 10.04.1 | 02:21 |
whisperkiller | yeah i think i will | 02:22 |
Jordan_U | nit-wit: No, I came up with it myself mostly (though I'm sure I'm not the only one). | 02:22 |
Gnea | RxDx: weird, what is the output of this terminal command: ps auxf | grep nm-applet | 02:22 |
OldParr | it do not let me: cat file > /dev/sdb unti i log in as root | 02:22 |
RxDx | Gnea, PM to prevent flood | 02:22 |
foxjazz_ | can anyone direct me on how to repair a ubuntu install? | 02:22 |
Jordan_U | OldParr: Do *NOT* run that command unless you know what you are doing. | 02:22 |
Jordan_U | OldParr: What are you trying to accomplish? | 02:23 |
nit-wit | Jordan_U, ohhh custom whatever works is good.:) | 02:23 |
OldParr | uRock: i knoe what i am doing | 02:23 |
foxjazz_ | I installed unity and it hasn't gone smoothly the last few times I have tried it on my 1015 | 02:23 |
OldParr | i am triying to make an usb boot image | 02:23 |
Chipzzz | jdogg24: did you read this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto | 02:24 |
Jordan_U | OldParr: If it's an Ubuntu iso that won't work. | 02:24 |
Gnea | RxDx: okay, try it like this then: ps auxf | head -n1 && ps auxf | grep nm-applet <--- but just paste the first 2 lines, and they're safe to paste here | 02:24 |

jdogg24 | sudo su | 02:25 |
Jordan_U | OldParr: You don't, you use sudo. | 02:25 |
RxDx | Gnea, so.. its using 7.4% of 4gb... too much for a simple process i think | 02:25 |
Gnea | RxDx: indeed | 02:25 |
Jordan_U | OldParr: There is nothing, when done properly, that requires logging in as root. | 02:25 |
Gnea | RxDx: how long has it been doing that? | 02:25 |
dell | hello | 02:26 |
RxDx | Gnea, o notice it a few days ago.. 5days, not sure | 02:26 |
jdogg24 | ok my ntfs driv is sda1 and my xubuntu is on sda5 so what else do i put in this LINE (mount -t ntfs device /path/to/drive) | 02:26 |
iceroot_ | what is the common way to mount a nfs-share on boot rw for a user without having a long waiting-time if the share is offline? using fstab? | 02:26 |
Gnea | RxDx: k, done any upgrades since or before then? how long ago did you install the system? | 02:26 |
nit-wit | Accelerator, not sure if this is it. http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/10/install-linux-mint-x-theme-ubuntu/ | 02:26 |
Jordan_U | OldParr: What image are you trying to write to the USB drive? Are you prepared to lose all data currently on the drive? Are you absolutely sure that /dev/sdb is the USB drive? | 02:26 |
iceroot_ | jdogg24: -t ntfs-3g | 02:26 |
Accelerator | nit-wit, That looks like it, thanks | 02:27 |
dell | i cant install virtualbox 4 ...says unhandled error occured | 02:27 |
dell | help | 02:27 |
Gnea | dell: make sure you're installing it correctly | 02:27 |
Chipzzz | jdogg24: mount -ntfs /dev/sda1 /sda5/mount_point (you have to mkdir /sda5/mount_point first, though) | 02:27 |
nit-wit | Accelerator, I have it installed but use a basic one panel desktop. | 02:27 |
OldParr | of course i am sure it is the usb drve but sudo cat mini.iso > /dev/sdb does not works it says permission denied | 02:28 |
OldParr | sudo cat mini.iso > /dev/sdb | 02:28 |
Gnea | jdogg24: mount -t ntfs-3g device /path/to/drive | 02:28 |
RxDx | Gnea, yes.. since this "few days" i enable the unstable repository to use newest version of programs.. i think is that | 02:28 |
ardchoille | OldParr: sudo doesn't handle redirects ">" like that | 02:28 |
Chipzzz | jdogg24: correction: mount -ntfs /dev/sda1 /mount_point (you have to mkdir /mount_point first, though) | 02:28 |
mickster04 | OldParr: hwy not use netbootin or another tool like that? | 02:29 |
dell | just downloaded the deb file from vbox.org n when tried to open it italmost finished installation then it says unhandlederror occured | 02:29 |
Gnea | RxDx: I see, does it always use this much memory as soon as the system starts up? | 02:29 |
Jordan_U | OldParr: cat is not what is writing to the drive, so it's not what needs to run as root. sudo dd if=mini.iso of=/dev/sdb | 02:29 |
OldParr | how do i "su -" | 02:29 |
br10ta10 | Can someone explain how sshd is getting started when it isn't being referenced in /etc/rc2.d ? | 02:29 |
Gnea | dell: that's not the right way. | 02:29 |
Gnea | !vbox | dell | 02:29 |

co_cr_pcr | sometimes ubuntu needs long-boot.. | 02:31 |
piercedwater | ok | 02:32 |
Gnea | piercedwater: probably because pulseaudio and your sound hardware don't get along, might want to disable pulseaudio | 02:32 |
Gnea | co_cr_pcr: depends on your card | 02:33 |

foxjazz_ | so anyone help me with reapiring unity? | 02:36 |
=== foxjazz_ is now known as foxnet | ||
alex568775 | whenever i start up my computer, it says "error: no such device" and says "grub_rescue>" | 02:36 |
uRock | reapiring? | 02:36 |
Gnea | !anyone | foxnet | 02:36 |
ubottu | foxnet: 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? | 02:36 |
foxnet | uRock, yea repairing | 02:36 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: Do you see any "out of disk" error? | 02:37 |
foxnet | well ok I see fatal error module when boot | 02:37 |
linuxman410 | has anyone installed linux on NetTop eBox-4300 | 02:37 |
uRock | what is broken with unity? | 02:37 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: no | 02:37 |
foxnet | installing software for one | 02:37 |
foxnet | the insaller is broken | 02:37 |
Gnea | linuxman410: someone probably has, anyone could, nobody probably hasn't and everyone certainly has not. | 02:38 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: i booted ubuntu from usb and did sudo update-grub but it couldnt find a device | 02:38 |
foxnet | I installed it from a san disk usb | 02:38 |
ratcheer | foxnet: Software Center? | 02:38 |
foxnet | ratcheer, yea broken | 02:38 |
robertzaccour | can I use GTK 2.x themes in Gnome? | 02:38 |
nertil | ye | 02:39 |
nertil | why not? | 02:39 |
robertzaccour | I found an awesome theme on xfce look | 02:39 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: That's because you can't run update-grub from a liveCD without chrooting first, but update-grub won't help anything either. | 02:39 |
robertzaccour | oh ok cool thanks | 02:39 |
ratcheer | foxnet: I had trouble installing .debs, but nothing else. | 02:39 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: so what should i do? | 02:39 |

linuxman410 | well i guess you cannot come in here and ask a question without getting a smart answer | 02:40 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: how do i fix grub? | 02:40 |
Gnea | !ask | linuxman410 | 02:40 |
ubottu | linuxman410: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 02:40 |
ognoe | i just want text to lay on vertical lines, not cross it, re dia. anyone? or direct me to a good chan to ask? | 02:40 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: Then the problems is most likely that you have a buggy BIOS. You can work around this by creating a small /boot/ partition near the start of the disk. | 02:40 |
newbieOne | any idea with what command can I join another server (server srv.irc.gr ) ? | 02:40 |
br10ta10 | mickster04: Thanks, but that doesn't explain what is starting sshd when there isn't mention of sshd in /etc/rc2.d. Is there a parallel startup script system in Ubuntu? | 02:40 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: it used to work just fine until i installed ubuntu using a usb | 02:41 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: do you know any commands to fix it? | 02:41 |
linuxman410 | i already ask it bye smarty | 02:41 |
brandonj | is something wrong with the forums? | 02:41 |
mickster04 | br10ta10: not sure sorryu | 02:41 |
Gnea | linuxman410: your question didn't make much sense, so I answered as such. perhaps you could just say what specific problems you're having and someone(s) could likely understand better | 02:41 |
mickster04 | br10ta10: have you googled much? | 02:41 |
br10ta10 | mickster04: np. thanks for trying. | 02:41 |
rww | newbieOne: /server srv.irc.gr | 02:41 |
Gnea | oops, he left. dang. | 02:41 |
mickster04 | br10ta10: I'm not supposed to suggest it i know, but "how does sshd start ubuntu" might be useful? | 02:41 |
br10ta10 | mickster04: i've poked around, but haven't figured it out yet. | 02:41 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: What used to work fine? If it was Windows that's because Windows creates a separate small partition near the beginning of the drive specifically to deal with buggy BIOSs. | 02:42 |
Abinadi | can someone tell me how to access the EQ for pulseaudio, or do I have to install a different module? | 02:42 |

alex568775 | Jordan_U: i mean the bios. it used to load to the microsoft boot menu. so is there any way to get rid of grub without getting rid of ubuntu? | 02:43 |
mickster04 | alex568775: if you do that you won't be able to boot into ubuntu | 02:43 |
brandonj | mickster04: gentoo & windows boot fine. root partition uuid in grub.cfg is OK. on attempting to boot I get a flashing whie cursor. the partition doesn't seem to be corrupted, I can access it from gentoo and fsck says its clean. | 02:43 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: Yes, I told you exactly how to do that already. | 02:43 |
alex568775 | mickster_04: oh. then how do i fix grub? | 02:43 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: the first command didnt work. the rest did | 02:44 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: You ran "sudo install-mbr /dev/sda" without seeing any error message? | 02:44 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: now it says windows boot manager failed to start. is there any way to get rid of ubuntu? i think i might have gotten rid of grub | 02:46 |
droidftw | hi | 02:48 |
brandonj | can somebody help me fix my boot problems? Something in the process is going wrong before the kernel accesses the root partition, but I can't get it to display any error messages. | 02:48 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: Can you run "sudo fdisk -lu" in a terminal and pastebin the output? | 02:48 |
droidftw | i installed ubuntu on my laptop but it wont get past the login screen it just goes back to it after i click login | 02:49 |

droidftw | i installed obuntu just fine but i type in my password and click login and it goes to some screen with colors then just reopens the login box | 02:50 |
brandonj | arand: gentoo & windows boot fine | 02:50 |
droidftw | im trying a reinstall right now | 02:51 |
arand | brandonj: hmm, I wonder if you boot another system and check the logs for the non-working one, maybe... | 02:51 |
brandonj | arand: the kernel isn't writing logs | 02:51 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: well its says i can repair with a windows boot disk. and im sacred ill do further damage if i do anymore commands | 02:51 |
droidftw | rj_90 any help | 02:51 |
rj_90 | Droidftw:hmm that might work | 02:51 |
brandonj | arand: I suspect it fails before it can access the partition | 02:52 |
droidftw | rj_90 ok | 02:52 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: "sudo fdisk -lu" doesn't write anything to disk, it just displays information. | 02:52 |

b4sh | alex568775 I havent had to do it since grub legacy 1 sec | 03:22 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: That's a decision that you have to make yourself. Your current configuration is modified beyond what the Ubuntu installer does, and I'm not clear what exactly has been done so it's hard to tell if/how it's fixable. | 03:23 |
b4sh | !patebin | 03:24 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: do you think its fixable if i use the windows installation cd? | 03:24 |
Jordan_U | alex568775: In fact I'm beginning to suspect that the original problem was something overwriting the partition created by the Ubuntu installer. That would fit all the symptoms. | 03:24 |
alex568775 | Jordan_U: so yes? | 03:24 |

Bendyr | Hey guys- I have a question about creating a bootable USB flash drive with the ubuntu 10.04 image from my mac. I want to create the image on my mac, but boot my dell mini 9 with that usb drive. I've tried following the directions on the ubuntu site at: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/netbook/get-ubuntu/download, but no matter what, it doesn't seem to be able to boot off the usb drive | 03:29 |
Jordan_U | Bendyr: Those directions make a USB drive which is only bootable on macs. | 03:29 |
w1n5ton | Netbooks are a real pain to boot from flash drives | 03:29 |
w1n5ton | I use an external DVD drive | 03:30 |
b4sh | !unetbuntu | Bendyr | 03:30 |
Bendyr | Jordan_U: I suspected that might be the case... do you have any idea how to modify those instructions to create one that is bootable on a dell mini 9? | 03:30 |
b4sh | !unetbootin | Bendyr | 03:30 |

Bendyr | ok i'll try those out thank you | 03:31 |
w1n5ton | I also need some help with some other things | 03:31 |
Jordan_U | Bendyr: Are you set on Ubuntu 10.04? Because I already have an image which will work this way created for 64 bit Ubuntu 10.10. | 03:31 |

b4sh | Bendyr make sure its formatted as fat32 I spent ages scratching my head why I couldnt get one to work as it was formatted ext3 | 03:31 |
Bendyr | Jordan_U: but I haven't used either | 03:31 |
[thor] | w1n5ton: provide as much detail about the problems as possible. | 03:31 |
Bendyr | Jordan_U: and my machine is 32-bit | 03:32 |
w1n5ton | Whenever I do a fresh install of ubuntu, everything is fast and responsive | 03:32 |
w1n5ton | But after I set everything up it gets slow | 03:32 |
w1n5ton | And seems to degrade more over time | 03:32 |
Jordan_U | Bendyr: OK, I can create a minimal install iso for you that you can dd to a USB drive and boot from a BIOS based machine. What version of Ubuntu would you like? | 03:33 |
Bendyr | Jordan_U: and wouldn't I still have the problem getting the image onto a usb stick? | 03:33 |
Bendyr | 10.04 | 03:33 |
b4sh | w1n5ton that sounds like windows are you sure? | 03:36 |

w1n5ton | Freezes randomly when running more than one application | 03:36 |
b4sh | peayness have you tried selecting the drive that has windoze on it to boot from | 03:37 |
Jordan_U | Bendyr: The UI is signifigantly different, yes. The minimal installer can install any flavor of Ubuntu depending on what options you choose. | 03:37 |
Bendyr | Jordan_U: thank you | 03:37 |
peayness | yes | 03:37 |

coz_ | Slix`, understood but start with the simplets things to begin troubleshooting | 03:43 |
Jordan_U | Bendyr: Should be fixed now. | 03:43 |
dimmortal | and lappy is pretty much the same as yours with a different as Slix` with a different vid card | 03:43 |
coz_ | Slix`, rather "simplest" | 03:43 |
b4sh | also have you seen where chrome installs to | 03:43 |
dimmortal | er wtf was that...lol | 03:43 |
[thor] | ah. this is ot | 03:43 |
Slix` | coz_: Okay, I'll try running a memory test. | 03:43 |
b4sh | yeah thats another one google analytics | 03:44 |
Bendyr | Jordan_U: thanks! i'll give this a shot- so once it's downloaded I just need to do "sudo dd if=ubuntu_minimal_lucid_i386_ddable.iso of=/dev/rdisk4" ? | 03:44 |

DaGeek247 | ;) | 03:48 |
dimmortal | b4sh... so?? | 03:48 |
=== Ezel is now known as SuP` | ||
jinx_ | yes | 03:48 |
coz_ | jinx_, what is it you see as a problem with th e driver? | 03:48 |
lamefun | Is it possible to install both KDE and GNOME and so that in KDE it only shows KDE application and prefers KDE applications when I click on files, and so in GNOME? | 03:48 |
Jordan_U | peayness: What is the output of "sudo os-prober"? | 03:49 |
peayness | ok well i installed ubuntu on a second hard drive...Now when i boot up my desktop and choose the hdd with win on it it say sata 1, sata 2, etc | 03:49 |
b4sh | dimmortal there seems to be issues with grub booting win7 off of a different drive that ubuntu is installed on | 03:49 |
coz_ | lamefun, if you mean only showing kde apps in kde ,, not that I am aware of | 03:49 |
jinx_ | You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. | 03:49 |
dimmortal | hmm... it worked fine on a buddys pc | 03:49 |
peayness | Jordan_U: nothing happened | 03:49 |
coz_ | jinx_, ok did you just install the driver? | 03:49 |
extra11 | hi friends :) | 03:50 |
jinx_ | yes and restarted | 03:50 |
coz_ | jinx_, oo ok open system/administratioin/ additional drivers | 03:50 |
Jordan_U | peayness: That means that most likely you don't actually have a bootable Windows install. | 03:50 |
Abinadi | Starminn, Thanks for the info. I'm checking it out now. Can you also tell me where I can find bluray drivers for Maverick? | 03:50 |
coz_ | jinx_, see if in fact the driver shows it is installed | 03:50 |
DipreW | How do I register a nick on freenode with Telepathy? | 03:50 |
mal10c_ | exit | 03:50 |
b4sh | dimmortal its not the first time today Ive heard of someone having this prob (different places) | 03:50 |
peayness | Jordan_U: what do you mean its not a bootable windows | 03:50 |
dimmortal | hmm...weird | 03:51 |
DaGeek247 | DipreW thats better asked in #freenode | 03:51 |
DipreW | I asked that in #freenode | 03:51 |
DipreW | They're stumped | 03:51 |
KB1JWQ | DipreW: The commands are fairly straightforward, if Telepathy isn't recognizing them then perhaps another client would be a wise idea? | 03:51 |
Jordan_U | peayness: os-prober checks all partitions on all drives for files which are required to be able to boot windows. It found no such partition. | 03:51 |
DaGeek247 | DipreW the client should have no effect on the nick registration | 03:51 |
b4sh | I suspect its where one chooses to install grub to | 03:52 |
Abinadi | can anyone tell me where I can find bluray drivers for my bluray player? | 03:52 |
peayness | Jordan_U is there anything i can do short of physically unplugging my ubuntu hdd | 03:52 |
rww | Telepathy isn't a client. Perhaps you mean "Empathy". If so, Empathy is a bad IRC client, use something else. | 03:52 |
_skpl | like irssis | 03:52 |
peayness | xchat2 is free | 03:52 |
_skpl | irssi | 03:52 |
b4sh | I reckon it needs to be installed on the windows drive rather than the mbr of the ubuntu partition | 03:53 |
Jordan_U | peayness: I doubt that physically unplugging your Ubuntu hdd would even work. | 03:53 |
DaGeek247 | !bluray | 03:53 |
peayness | im going to test now brb | 03:53 |
DipreW | Nvm | 03:53 |

Jordan_U | alexishappy: You're welcome. | 03:55 |
DaGeek247 | Abinadi thats an interesting problem im gonna goresearch it myself | 03:56 |
b4sh | blueray drivers? You mean the ide controller drivers no? | 03:57 |
Starminn | You know how "Ok/Cancel" dialogs (such as in JavaScript dialogs) in Ubuntu, the "Ok" is on the right instead of the left like Windows (usually)? Is this all Linux or just Ubuntu? | 03:58 |
Gnea | Starminn: depends on the program. | 03:58 |
b4sh | starminn just ubuntu | 03:58 |
=== Starminn is now known as room | ||

b4sh | Gnea you dont use many other distros then | 03:58 |
Gnea | b4sh: you're free to believe what you want to, even if it's wrong. | 03:59 |
b4sh | Gnea whatever | 03:59 |
RuNt | Anyone know how to fix the fan driver issue on the iMac g5s? | 03:59 |
b4sh | Gnea name me another distro where that is true? | 03:59 |
peayness | Jordan_U: you were right my win7 hdd is nto bootable now | 04:00 |
helpmeplz | whenever i boot up linux on my computer, it says fatal error: could not find lib/modules/[I dont remember]. It still works, but is there any way i can fix the error? | 04:00 |
Gnea | b4sh: negative, you're the only one saying that it's true for distros. | 04:00 |
helpmeplz | can somebody help me plz? | 04:01 |
Abinadi | I mean, drivers such that when I insert a bluray disk into my player on my laptop it plays | 04:01 |
Gnea | !helpme | helpmeplz | 04:01 |
ubottu | helpmeplz: Avoid following your questions with a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !attitude | 04:01 |

jaybinks | is there a way to set a "session" variable in mysql.. | 04:02 |
b4sh | rww I agree just Gnea dont tell me I wrong when Im not | 04:02 |
DaGeek247 | Abinadi its bst to stick with windows for bluray. | 04:02 |
peayness | how did installing ubuntu kill my win7 hdd | 04:02 |
jaybinks | what im after is ... to be able to set a variable of some sort ... such as "my_user_variable=foo" | 04:02 |
ZykoticK9 | kreppnar, very unlikely you'll get a Magicjack working on linux :( MAYBE in a proprietary VBox with USB - but no promises. | 04:02 |
Jordan_U | peayness: I personally doubt that it did. | 04:02 |
Gnea | b4sh: don't hand out disinformation and you won't have that problem. | 04:03 |

Abinadi | DaGeek247, , ugh, that defeats the whole purpose of me having set a significant amount of time in linux | 04:04 |
nowarninglabel | Is there a step by step on how to mount an encrypted home directory on an external drive, so that I can see the decrypted files and/or copy out decrypted files? I tried following http://www.linux-mag.com/id/7568/3/ but was not successful | 04:04 |
ubuntu_ | Hey | 04:05 |
DaGeek247 | the makers of the blu ray software really dont want free software playing blurays. its possible to play them in uuntu, but also a pain. | 04:05 |
ubuntu_ | Are any of the games in ebuntu software center illegal to download? | 04:05 |
Gnea | ubuntu_: why would they be illegal? | 04:05 |
DaGeek247 | ubunt_ no | 04:06 |
ubuntu_ | im just wondering because one of them says "emulator" | 04:06 |
Gnea | ubuntu_: emulators are not illegal. | 04:06 |
ubuntu_ | ya | 04:06 |
Gnea | some of the roms might be | 04:06 |
Gnea | but roms != emulators | 04:06 |
ubuntu_ | is tux paint, or Emilia pinball | 04:06 |
ubuntu_ | illegal? | 04:06 |
Abinadi | DaGeek247, and just when i was almost finished having Windows withdrawals...sheesh | 04:07 |
DaGeek247 | Gnea, you a programmer? :) | 04:07 |
Gnea | ubuntu_: if they were illegal, they wouldn't be there. | 04:07 |
RuNt | Anyone know how to fix the fan driver issue on the iMac g5s? | 04:07 |
Gnea | DaGeek247: not professionally :) | 04:07 |
ubuntu_ | o well i heard a lot of good hacking programs are in linux | 04:07 |
DaGeek247 | Abinadi, you might could run windvd in wine.. | 04:07 |
Gnea | ubuntu_: depending on your definition of 'hacking' | 04:07 |
ubuntu_ | well as long as tux paint and the games arn't :D | 04:08 |
DaGeek247 | linux != ubuntu | 04:08 |
Abinadi | DaGeek247, that's a thought | 04:08 |
nowarninglabel | Ok well I guess back to keep trying things, but if anyone is familiar with how to mount an encrypted home directory to read it, would very much appreciate a ping. | 04:08 |
Gnea | ubuntu_: either you've adopted the media's definition (read: the wrong definition), or the correct definition (read: MIT's definition) | 04:08 |
danny_ | Can anyone tell me where to find the crashlogs that byobu is telling me I have 51 of? | 04:08 |
izinucs | how can I tell what dictionary is installed that OOo uses? | 04:08 |
Starminn | ubuntu_: http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/security/hacker-vs-cracker/1400 | 04:08 |
ubuntu_ | well whatever definition that can get me in trouble | 04:08 |
Gnea | ubuntu_: clearly, the 'wrong' definition would | 04:09 |
izinucs | or FF for that matter | 04:09 |
peayness | Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=am6RkSu8 | 04:09 |
ubuntu_ | okay well are the games illegal, regarding to the wrong definition | 04:09 |
Gnea | ubuntu_: depends who you ask, the media tends to represent anyone | 04:10 |
ubuntu_ | im asking u | 04:10 |
ubuntu_ | well asking the police | 04:10 |
Gnea | I would say no. | 04:10 |
ubuntu_ | asking internet police | 04:10 |
Gnea | the police wouldn't be able to give you a solid answer. | 04:10 |
rww | ubuntu_: Copyright law differs between countries and situations. Ubuntu and #ubuntu cannot offer you legal advice. If you're concerned about the legality of our software, please ask a lawyer. | 04:10 |
Starminn | ubuntu_: I don't think anything in the Software Center is illegal (unless you add a package to make those programs available via it, perhaps?) | 04:10 |
ubuntu_ | alright. | 04:10 |
Gnea | ubuntu_: it might also help if you look into your country's software licensing laws | 04:11 |
ubuntu_ | in my school we are installing ubuntu to computers, so im guessing it wont me | 04:11 |
peayness | http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=am6RkSu8 | 04:11 |
Starminn | Like rww said, though, we're not lawyers | 04:11 |
ubuntu_ | i live in canada | 04:11 |
Bried | Hi. How do I get information about exactly which compression scheme is used in a zip file? | 04:11 |
rww | ubuntu_: As far as I'm aware, there are no packages in Ubuntu's official repositories that are illegal in Canada. This does not constitute legal advice; I am not a lawyer. | 04:11 |
Bried | zipinfo just tells me the ratio.. need to know which type exactly | 04:12 |
Gnea | ubuntu_: ah okay, should be fine then, but you might want to check with whoever's in charge (teacher, administrator, etc) and find out their opinion on the matter | 04:12 |
MrDudle | rww: afaik same in the usa | 04:12 |
Starminn | Bried: Does this help any? I really wouldn't know | 04:12 |
Jordan_U | Bried: "file /path/to/file.zip" will probably tell you. | 04:12 |
Starminn | Bried: Forgot the link http://rangit.com/information-technology/differences-between-the-5-types-of-archiving-and-compression-formats/ | 04:12 |
wendaozhe | bried: try file | 04:12 |
ubuntu_ | okay thanks guys | 04:12 |
* Starminn goes away | 04:12 | |
Gnea | ubuntu_: might want to ask them if they've ever had problems with too much gaming and things like that :) | 04:13 |
zarus | I was wondering, if I create a program and if forks, which one has the higher pid? The parent, or the child? | 04:13 |
ubuntu_ | well the games shouldn't be illegal as its open source and th e members made the programs themself. I dont think they just copied a program from a diff operating system and copied it :D | 04:14 |
MrDudle | ubuntu_: emulators aren't illegal | 04:14 |
MrDudle | stop worrying about legality so much | 04:14 |
Jordan_U | zarus: The child, but that is *not* how you should be determining which is the parent or fork. | 04:14 |
danny_ | Is there a particular reason I have byobu flashing a redbox at me saying 51! and where do I get the associated crash logs? This server machine has only been alive for 24 hours and it crashes every 4 | 04:14 |
MrDudle | ubuntu_: we all know you are gonna go and find copyrighted games to play :P | 04:14 |
ubuntu_ | MrDudle: no | 04:15 |
ubuntu_ | ive learned my lesson from doing llegal shit | 04:15 |
ubuntu_ | sorry for my language | 04:15 |
MrDudle | i'm sure | 04:15 |
DaGeek247 | or ubuntu_ could make his own.. | 04:15 |
rww | I think we've reached the limit of this conversation's applicability to "Ubuntu support". | 04:15 |
ubuntu_ | i got introuble for dling movies and i wont do anything illegal ever again with knowing it | 04:15 |
zarus | Okay, thanks. Because I tested out a simple program that would print out a pid after forking, and it always printed the higher one first. I guess the child finishes executing before the parent gets to print. | 04:15 |
DaGeek247 | lol, yes | 04:15 |
Gnea | ubuntu_: well the reason I bring it up is because, while you may have learned your lesson, other people may not have done so yet, and it call onto your shoulders if they do | 04:16 |
DaGeek247 | ubuntu_ join #ubuntu-offtopic and ths can bediscussed more | 04:16 |

DaGeek247 | peayniss with gparted | 04:20 |
Alavi | after 20s black screen | 04:20 |
Bendyr | Jordan_U: downloaded! before I dd it, do I need to format the drive with anything special? | 04:21 |

Alavi | so only way i can boot at all is the failsafex | 04:21 |
Jordan_U | peayness: Windows 7 installs consist of two partitions, a "system" partition which is somewhat analogous to a separate /boot, and the "C:" which stores pretty much everything else. You have no system partition. | 04:21 |

pmp6nl | Hello, can anyone tell me why ampache installs to /usr/share as opposed to /var/www ... i cannot access it via localhost/ampache. thanks | 04:21 |
peayness | Jordan_U: im dont understand what you are saying | 04:24 |
peayness | Jordan_U: ubuntu is installed on a seperate hdd it shouldnt have done anything to my original hdd | 04:25 |
Chipzzz | pmp6nl: have you tried changing the document root in ampache.conf? | 04:25 |
Jordan_U | peayness: You at some point deleted a partition from your Windows drive. The Ubuntu installer did not do this. | 04:25 |
Bendyr | Jordan_U: It's working! Thanks, I was going nuts. Ok I gotta log out of this machine cause I need the ethernet drop. I'm gonna give this a shot. Thanks a ton for all your help! | 04:25 |
Jordan_U | Bendyr: You're welcome :) | 04:25 |
pmp6nl | chipzzz: no, where is that located? | 04:25 |
Abinadi | can anyone point me to a site that has a comprehensive bit of tweaks to do to firefox via about:config? I have already gotten some better performance by turning of the checks of Ipv6, but I'm sure there must be more to make it load pages faster. | 04:25 |
peayness | Jordan_U: so can i use my win7 disk to recover that hdd | 04:26 |
Jordan_U | peayness: Most likely, yes. | 04:26 |
Bried | Hi. How do I get information about exactly which compression scheme is used in a zip file? | 04:26 |
Bried | (if this was answered I never saw) | 04:26 |
Jordan_U | Bried: "file /path/to/file.zip" will probably tell you. | 04:26 |
Chipzzz | pmp6nl: type locate ampache.conf | 04:27 |
Bried | nope :-/ tried that already.... just tells me zip archive data like zipinfo | 04:27 |
pmp6nl | chipzzz that doesnt return anything | 04:28 |
Alavi | i have a black screen problem on maverick, installed it for the first time on toshiba m30x. it loads gui, works for about 20s, and than black screen. does anyone have any advice? i have googled a lot with no real success | 04:30 |
Chipzzz | pmp6nl: I don't know much about ampache, it was just a guess. They have a forum, though: http://ampache.org/forums/ | 04:30 |
Jordan_U | Bried: File on the one zip file I can find gives "Zip archive data, at least v2.0 to extract". I am guessing that the "at least v2.0 to extract" is determined by what compression features are used. | 04:31 |
pmp6nl | chipzzz: ok, thanks. I found the file and it is pointing to the correct location /usr/share/ampache/www | 04:31 |
Bried | well mine says v1.0 but I dunno what that means for which compression is used | 04:31 |
Chipzzz | pmp6nl: if you point it at the same doc root as apache, you might have better luck | 04:32 |
Bried | reason I need exact type is I need to remake the file after changing compression type | 04:32 |
Bried | md5 doesn't have to be the same but has to be same compression type | 04:32 |
pmp6nl | chipzzz: so I would just copy the ampache files to that folder? | 04:32 |
danny_ | is there an ubuntu server irc chatroom? | 04:33 |
rww | danny_: #ubuntu-server | 04:33 |

smacktalk1 | Im having trouble installing vmware getting error: Unable to build kernel module. | 04:36 |
danny_ | offsense back that drive up while you still have a chance | 04:36 |
smacktalk1 | See log file /tmp/vmware-root/setup-14957.log for details. | 04:36 |
Chipzzz | pmp6nl: sorry I couldn't be more help | 04:37 |
danny_ | smacktalk maybe pastebin that file? | 04:37 |
smacktalk1 | i'm using vmware 7 and the newest version of ubuntu | 04:37 |
pmp6nl | chipzzz: no problem | 04:37 |
smacktalk1 | sorry daanny | 04:37 |
offsense | danny_: does it mean the HD is broken? | 04:37 |
smacktalk1 | oh..you mean copy the log into pastebin? | 04:37 |
danny_ | offsense in my experience it's a good idea to back it up when it starts making noises.... | 04:37 |
Jordan_U | Bried: According to "man zipinfo" the last field by default gives information on the compression type. | 04:37 |
danny_ | smacktalk1 Yes. | 04:38 |
danny_ | offsense it may not fail immediately but usually noisy drives don't last | 04:38 |
offsense | danny_: aight, any command to check bad sector | 04:38 |
v_ | Hello All , i have firefox 3.0.8 using ubuntu 9.04 but i am not able see chat list when i login to my yahoo.com account and also unable to login to yahoo account using pidgin | 04:38 |
danny_ | besides it's always good to have a backup. | 04:38 |
danny_ | You'll have to ask one of the Gurus.... I mostly just build/set up. | 04:39 |
smacktalk1 | how do I get to the pastebin? | 04:39 |

Bried | well... listing the files in the zip it's determined to be deflate | 04:41 |
xerebz | it's not playing for some reason | 04:41 |
Bried | stupid that infozip can't just say that when using the summary option | 04:41 |
tucemiux | xerebz, did it used to work at some poing? | 04:41 |
tucemiux | xerebz, did it used to work at some poinT | 04:42 |
pmp6nl | anyone know how to figure out where a symlink points? | 04:42 |
xerebz | tucemiux: never fresh install | 04:42 |
Jordan_U | pmp6nl: readlink /path/to/symlink | 04:42 |
xerebz | mplayer's playing the file but i don't hear anything | 04:42 |
trollboy | I don't have a CD drive, or a usb stick over 120mb, can I install ubuntu on my eepc? | 04:43 |
pmp6nl | jordan_ thanks | 04:43 |
xerebz | there's no /dev/audio | 04:43 |
pmp6nl | jordan_u thanks | 04:43 |
Jordan_U | trollboy: Yes, using the minimal installer. | 04:43 |
trollboy | I saw the windows installer, but that looks like it only creates a virtual environment | 04:43 |
Jordan_U | pmp6nl: You're welcome. | 04:43 |
v_ | DaGeek247: how to install java? | 04:43 |
tucemiux | xerebz, most likely you will have to play around with it to make the sound card work but first try the usual trouble shooting steps, make sure the cables are connected, volume is up, etc. etc | 04:43 |
Jordan_U | trollboy: It's not a virtual machine, but I don't recommend using wubi anyway. | 04:43 |
AbhijiT | !java | v_ | 04:44 |
ubottu | v_: 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. | 04:44 |
Jordan_U | !minimal | trollboy | 04:44 |
ubottu | trollboy: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 04:44 |
danny_ | anyone familiar with byobu? | 04:44 |
smacktalk1 | thanks Jordan :/ | 04:45 |
smacktalk1 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/566842/ | 04:45 |
Jordan_U | trollboy: I'm pretty sure that the minimal iso can be used with unetbootin and other tools for making bootable USB drives. | 04:45 |
offsense | how do we make a hidden file? | 04:45 |
DaGeek247 | offsense by adding aperiod att the begining of the file name | 04:45 |
Jordan_U | offsense: Rename it to start with a '.' | 04:45 |
Zelozelos | offsense put a . at the beginning of the filename/foldername ? | 04:45 |
trollboy | also, and this isn't a troll question; Can I use Ubuntu One from my mac/windows box? | 04:46 |
offsense | thnx guys! | 04:46 |
rww | trollboy: there's a client for Windows in beta. I don't think there's a Mac one. | 04:46 |
smacktalk1 | is ubuntu supposed to support dual monitors? | 04:46 |
Jordan_U | trollboy: You can use the web interface anywhere, for dedicated clients see rww's comment. | 04:46 |
smacktalk1 | not being very configurable :'( | 04:46 |
Jordan_U | smacktalk1: Yes. | 04:46 |
trollboy | UbuntuOne sounds like a apple .mac account, I use dropbox now between machines/pda's/phones | 04:47 |
smacktalk1 | i have the same image on both monitors...what if I want it to span the two monitors? | 04:47 |
Jordan_U | smacktalk1: System > Preferences > Monitors | 04:47 |
peayness | using the windows disk it is not showing my os to restore | 04:50 |
smacktalk1 | that doesn't let me span the image between monitors | 04:50 |

philip__ | trollboy: atom can support X64 bit, but the boards the ATOM Is on, only support 2GB, so kinda pointless. | 05:02 |

JSong | jordan_u: ok so I type rm -r ./test ? | 05:27 |
Jordan_U | JSong: Yes, that would work. The './' is redundant, but doesn't hurt anything. | 05:27 |
elijah733 | no that doesn't work, can someone help me find and install a ralink 5390 driver | 05:28 |

elijah733 | how do i install a driver from a zip file? | 05:29 |
Jordan_U | JSong: With rm, (and most other commands) the filename is assumed to be relative to the current directory unless you use an absolute path. | 05:29 |

Jordan_U | JSong: No, that would attempt to delete $CURRENT_DIRECTORY/var/www/test | 05:32 |
elijah733 | kubuntu 10.10 | 05:32 |
Jordan_U | JSong: If you want to specify a non-relative path you need it to start with '/'. | 05:33 |

rww | JSong: on second thought... is it 8.04 or 8.10? | 05:33 |
JSong | jordan_u: oh goodness! so only do rm -r ./test while I am inside the /var/www/ | 05:33 |
JSong | rww: 8.10 i think | 05:33 |
YankDownUnder | elijah733, Coolbeans - ok, firstly, what you should do is go to "Administration" (wherever that is in KDE), and find the "Hardware Drivers" utility - see if the drivers are actually in the "channels" as it were...if NOT, then I have something else for ya to try, eh? | 05:33 |

Starminn | JSong: (Got this from here http://www.technize.com/ssd-vs-hdd-comparison/) The typical access time for a Flash based SSD is about 35 – 100 micro-secondsWhereas that of a rotating disk is around 5,000 – 10,000 micro-seconds. That makes a Flash-based SSD approximately 100 times faster than a rotating disk.HDD data transfer rate at the rate of 80 megabytes per second typically.SSD data transfer rate at the rate of 170 megabytes pe | 05:53 |
foxnet | dedicated servers often have raid | 05:53 |
JSong | not mine.. I think they gave me a single 300 gig hd | 05:53 |
foxnet | jsong they say it 's solid state, but is it really? | 05:54 |
JSong | hmm actually they gave me 2 x 300gig so maybe rid 0 | 05:54 |
foxnet | they could just put it on a really good raid controller | 05:54 |
JSong | Well they say it will be SS.. and All I have to do is VNC in and look at it with disk manager from Ubuntu gui based to know 100% | 05:54 |
JSong | I am running SSLVNC | 05:55 |
foxnet | eh, go with sql server, it's faster than anything out there | 05:55 |
JSong | a seperate sql server? | 05:55 |
foxnet | yea, a real database | 05:56 |
JSong | right now all my servers are running in one box. dns, email, web, LAMP | 05:56 |
cfedde | sql server? you mean microsoft sqlserver? | 05:56 |
foxnet | hell yea, ms sql server | 05:56 |
tripelb | I need help re NNTP: I have not used that since chi.general and chi.eats and rumour.politics and comp.os.apple.whatever .... I'm looking for the Daily Show. How do I find this given THIS following info: It's available on the NNTP network still. Leechr and hellanzb are your friends. No need to 'bother' with torrents. It just shows up in your output directory. | 05:56 |
JSong | well ms sql server is too expensive and not free | 05:56 |
JSong | mysql is free | 05:57 |
cfedde | might as well just go oracle at that point. | 05:57 |
foxnet | no, it's not free | 05:57 |
foxnet | that's why companies like amazon use them, they are fast | 05:57 |
JSong | i am on a budget | 05:57 |
JSong | can't afford that | 05:57 |
* tripelb wants to learn opensource database stuff | 05:57 | |
pmp6nl | I am trying to mount a samba share, do I need to be in the same domaingroup? | 05:57 |
JSong | I want to maximize on using 1 dedicated server | 05:57 |
cfedde | tripelb: sqlite is a great way to start. postgresql after that. | 05:57 |
foxnet | as I said, don't do solid state, if your spending mone y on solid state, you may as well go sql, even a shared sql is less expensive | 05:58 |
fread2281 | You could get it illegally( cracked ) | 05:58 |
foxnet | shared sql server is actually very cheap | 05:58 |
JSong | does it mess with my db structure if I move to ms sql from mysql? | 05:58 |
alin` | buna dimineata | 05:59 |
foxnet | http://www.sqlservermart.com/Shared.aspx | 05:59 |
foxnet | or use azure | 05:59 |
YankDownUnder | Paying for a product that is not complete, nor warranted to work, is a bad thing. | 05:59 |
tripelb | cfedde, can we talk about it. I have some past experience. What: I did some rbase programming in the wayback. took a (not good) dreamweaver class. student taught datastructures in not-that-far wayback to ICS majors. | 05:59 |
fread2281 | I hate Linux cuz its less using the real db than osx and more like windows | 06:00 |
foxnet | azure is very competatively priced | 06:00 |
cfedde | tripelb: pick up a reasonable sql book. I like _SQL for Smarties_ | 06:00 |
foxnet | jsong you can use integration services to move your data from mysql | 06:00 |
foxnet | it's really easy | 06:00 |
tripelb | cfedde, I'd like some more generalized background about datastructures and the way that they are handled, some problems to help me think it through or something to program. (I'm in a Ub10.04 environment | 06:00 |
tripelb | would that book work then? | 06:01 |
JSong | is anyone else have experience running SSLVNC on their Ubuntu server for reote management? | 06:01 |
fread2281 | Nvm | 06:01 |
fread2281 | I frogot bout hidden folders | 06:01 |
cfedde | tripelb: relational database work is a bit of a differet way to think than say a CS 202 class on datastructures. | 06:01 |
JSong | foxnet: who are some integration services? Does it require me to recode or cahneg my php files and querys? | 06:02 |
cfedde | JSong: mibration from mysql to sql server is going to require some changes. Yes. | 06:02 |
amn3z1a | can anyone help me get an internet connection to work on a new ubuntu install? | 06:02 |
JSong | that is going ot be a project then.. right now i have a dev environment running Xampp | 06:02 |
JSong | if i run ms sql.. then I may have to recode my querys and such and i have 100's of php files | 06:03 |

joeoshawa | i have a monitor thats 1680x1050 and a tv thats 43 inch i want to be able to run at 1080p off the computer with 120hz refresh and i want to be able to run hd movies on the tv and play the new urban terror at the same time what would be a good card that will work with ubuntu (thinking nvidia) | 06:03 |
twitch | meh | 06:03 |
cfedde | JSong: I'd recomend measuring performance in some objective way before and after each change. | 06:03 |
philip__ | What's the command to find out my Audio device/driver info in Terminal? | 06:04 |
tripelb | cfedde, sorry if I'm slow but I'm copying your responses. Tell me what you mean (and it was a class like 103 (first year of ICS 3rd quarter) not an upperdivision class.) | 06:04 |
JSong | cfedde: I just want to make it more snappy... and I was thinking SS hard drive will do the trick | 06:04 |
cfedde | I think you'll find that a migration from spinning media to ssd will far outstrip changing from mysql to sql server. | 06:04 |
amn3z1a | i just orderes a SSD | 06:04 |
JSong | plus I am not sure what the limitation of mysql db is as it keeps growing | 06:04 |
cfedde | JSong: mysql hosts some of the largest databases on the planet | 06:05 |
JSong | cfedde: nice.. so no worrys about that.. but then will going soild state be a simpler move for me? | 06:05 |
cfedde | tripelb: you understand datastructures like linked lists and binary trees and such? | 06:05 |
amn3z1a | anyone available to help with a lack of internet connection issue? | 06:06 |
cfedde | JSong: going from host to host is more an issue for the providor than for you. | 06:06 |
tripelb | cfedde yes | 06:06 |
cfedde | JSong: changing code is pretty much up to you. | 06:06 |
cfedde | tripelb: a relational database like sqlite, mysql, postgres and the rest make use of low level datastructures to represent a collection of tables of data. | 06:07 |
sunit | I am using ubuntu 10.04 LTS now and installed java-6 and tomcat 6. In /etc/defaults/tomcat6 file there is place to set JAVA_OPTS | 06:07 |
JSong | cfedde: thanks. I am thinking which is best as my site grows.. go dedicated with a monthly fees.. or just build my own computer and put some serious horse power on it.. and get a rack space for colo.. and just pay for the monthly fees for a pipe and facilities | 06:07 |
cfedde | tripelb: datastructures and filestructures both. | 06:07 |
tripelb | cfedde well yes | 06:07 |
foxnet | you could always use sqlexpress, it's free and still faster than mysql jsong | 06:07 |
amn3z1a | cfedde, same thing ms does, directs to a database thru code | 06:07 |
cfedde | amn3z1a: exactly | 06:08 |
amn3z1a | im learning sql and silverlight and the rest | 06:08 |
foxnet | amn3z1a, thats' fun | 06:08 |
cfedde | amn3z1a: my position on performance issue is that switching to ssd will give you more performance than switcing to sql server. | 06:08 |
amn3z1a | not really, but it'll pay off | 06:08 |
tripelb | cfedde yes "relational" rather than flat would have a structure of referring to specific files (trying to avoid the words linking and related) | 06:08 |
JSong | foxnet: thanks. I am just very nervous about the redoing of my code... it would be horrendous | 06:08 |
foxnet | amn3z1a, it's kinda stupid when I did it a couple years ago, hope it changed. | 06:08 |
foxnet | JSong, should just be a connection string change | 06:09 |
amn3z1a | just more complications now, foxnet | 06:09 |
cfedde | tripelb: this is not realy the format for it but I can point you to a couple reasonable online tutorials on relational databases | 06:09 |
JSong | foxnet: thanks. i will look into sqlexpress is that a MS product? | 06:09 |
cfedde | s/format/forum/ | 06:09 |
foxnet | JSong, yea ms sql sexpress | 06:10 |
foxnet | express* | 06:10 |
JSong | I also heard of a new DB out called 'Maria' since Oracle bought out mysql | 06:10 |
amn3z1a | foxnet, they say they've made 'improvements' ... isnt that what ms said when they released Windows... every time? | 06:10 |
ruby_on_tails | hello | 06:10 |
foxnet | well there is sqllite | 06:10 |
JSong | with Orace nothing stays free too long | 06:10 |
ruby_on_tails | i saw a guy typing something in the CLI to perform a regex based search on a set of files in a folder, how can i do that ? | 06:10 |
sunit | we have to set JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Xms384M -Xmx512M -XX:MaxPermSize=256M | 06:10 |
cfedde | sqlite is a bit too limited for major website use. | 06:10 |
foxnet | JSong, yea, mysql open source will probably have to part and call it open-sql | 06:11 |
tripelb | cfedde records, lists of records and related files. --- Sure. re the pointer from you to tutorials. thumbs up on that --- but what I was asking is to understand the distinction you were making between -relational database work- and -a cs class-. Oh were you thinking that the db standard is set and normal db work is done within a standard file structure while the class is teaching you to think about a variety of file structures? | 06:11 |
sunit | but in /etc/defaults/tomcat6 the JAVA_OPTS is set to JAVA_OPTS="${JAVA_OPTS} -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC" by defaults. | 06:12 |
Loshki | ruby_on_tails: was it using 'find -regex' perhaps? | 06:12 |
* dannyLopez se va | 06:12 | |
ruby_on_tails | Loshki: i have no idea, i am a newbie | 06:12 |
ruby_on_tails | but i want to do that | 06:12 |
cfedde | tripelb: It seems you understand what I'm saying. | 06:12 |
sunit | shall we change JAVA_OPTS or keep it as defaults ? | 06:12 |
JSong | I am not sure why the new dedicated hosting company only installs 8.x vs 10.4 | 06:13 |
Symmetria | *SIGH* I have a *MAJOR* problem with an ubuntu server where, after running for a while, apache dies, and refuses to restart, and when I attempt to restart it, it claims [Mon Feb 14 08:06:03 2011] [emerg] (28)No space left on device: Couldn't create accept lock (/var/lock/apache2/accept.lock.2687) (5) | 06:13 |
Symmetria | does ANYONE have any idea how I fix that since I cannot reboot this machine at the moment | 06:13 |
Symmetria | and I desperately need to get apache restarted | 06:13 |
bullgard | philip__ : '~$ lsmod | grep snd' | 06:13 |
JSong | Anyone here have experience with the new 11.x coming out soon? | 06:13 |
cfedde | tripelb: a Datastructures and file structures class is part of a CS degree and ends up more of a math class than a vocational class. | 06:13 |
Loshki | ruby_on_tails: start by looking at the 'find' man page. Unfortunately, it's not the easiest of commands for a beginner... | 06:13 |
twitch | Symmetria: your hard drive or that partation is full | 06:13 |
ruby_on_tails | Loshki: ok, thanks | 06:13 |
cfedde | While there is plenty of sound math behind the relational database model most people don't expect to have to know it. | 06:13 |
twitch | Symmetria: in cli type "df -h" | 06:14 |
Symmetria | twitch, no, its not, thats a tmpfs mount in memory, and there is 12G available | 06:14 |
cfedde | tripelb: http://www.w3schools.com/sql/default.asp http://www.sqlite.org/ | 06:14 |
Symmetria | none 12G 0 12G 0% /var/lock | 06:14 |
Symmetria | and the really wierd thing, is when I unmount /var/lock so it is actually trying to lock to disk, it STILL claims that | 06:15 |
sunit | you can see the tomcat file in url http://dpaste.de/0QxK/. please help me | 06:16 |
twitch | Symmetria: run in ram or on a partition? | 06:16 |
Symmetria | twitch no matter where it attempts to write that lock file to I'm getting the same issue | 06:17 |
philip__ | Does anybody have trouble with graphics driver 173 nvidia geforce FX 5200 AGP8x 256MB sparkle? I have to use 96 drivers for it to not crash (As bad) | 06:17 |
amn3z1a | its a sparkle | 06:18 |
twitch | Symmetria: just a though but does the "user" of the service have write access? | 06:18 |
Symmetria | *HRM* ok, that error message definately isn't about the lock file, because yes, it definately has write access to everywhere I try, but even if I try stick that lock file in the apache log directory same message, and there are hundreds of gigs available in there, I think its a ram issue | 06:18 |
philip__ | Sparkle is the brand amn3z1a | 06:19 |

Guest19901 | sorry | 07:20 |
iiDesignsDSL | hey everyone | 07:20 |
Stryker | Guest19901, as long as you own the router, it would be fine, even if it was illegal, it wouldn't hold up in court | 07:20 |
rww | It's not illegal. At all. | 07:21 |

gazi0101 | also add that as long as it doesn't increase your bandwith past what you have purchased from your isp | 07:21 |
KB1JWQ | rww: Technically I believe it is in some jurisdictions. Germany had a law on the books for a while that had issue with such things, for example. | 07:21 |
gazi0101 | not illegal | 07:21 |

ale_ | hi, I have a secondary disk in my PC, and it is not mounted. How can I figure out how to mount it? | 08:33 |
moth_woman | ale_: how is it formated? | 08:34 |
ale_ | it's a linux drive, so it should be ext3 or ext4 | 08:34 |
soreau | ale_: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mount/point/ | 08:35 |
soreau | ale_: change sdb1 to fit your device of course | 08:35 |
moth_woman | ale_: use fdisk -l to find out the device name, then sudo mount /dev/sdx -t ext3 /mnt/sdx x being the drive info you got from fdisk -l | 08:36 |
ale_ | great, thanks! | 08:36 |
barf_ | How can I set up my own apt repo? | 08:37 |
moth_woman | ale_: the directory /mnt/sdx must already exist for this to work. | 08:37 |
barf_ | What is apt? a structure in a folder on a webserver? | 08:38 |
rumpe1 | barf_, do you mean apt-proxy or a ppa? | 08:38 |
taylanub | in the network manager, under ipv4 settings, i choose manual (instead of dhcp) and set up some things but the apply button remains grey >_< | 08:38 |
barf_ | I would like to put my own binaries on http and add that as a source in /etc/apt/sources.list | 08:39 |

zimnyx | tsimpson: Those disk were in FakeRaid. I switched Raid off. Maybe thats why such weird UUIDs. | 09:24 |

star_ | your system is 64bit ? | 09:33 |

ardchoille | Gnea: the window shows a titlebar and nothing else. Looks like a bug to me | 11:30 |
Gnea | Ethelwulf: okay, are you running that command inside or outside of vbox? | 11:30 |

Ethelwulf | share is in my windows filesystem | 11:35 |
pegasus_ | ahaha sorry sagaci and please call me Nancy I don't like my ex bf nick here :-P | 11:35 |
Gnea | Ethelwulf: alright, so just: sudo ln -s /path/to/share /mnt/my_shared_folder | 11:36 |
Ethelwulf | "ln" for link i presume? | 11:36 |
Younder | jup | 11:36 |
Gnea | pegasus_: it's okay, most of us are patient :) | 11:37 |
Gnea | Ethelwulf: correct | 11:37 |
sagaci | pegasus_, well just change your nick to nancy, since highlighting won't happen unless your nick is nancy | 11:37 |
Ethelwulf | thanks : ) | 11:37 |
Gnea | Ethelwulf: cheers | 11:38 |
pegasus_ | ahah thanks gnea and thanks sagaci. you know I don't want to go back to windows ... but ubuntu is not so userfriendly at least for me | 11:38 |
sagaci | pegasus_, well did anything come up when you put a disc in the drive | 11:38 |
Gnea | pegasus_: well, there is a learning curve, but if you're willing to deal with it as time goes on, you'll find the benefits far outweigh anything else :) | 11:38 |
Younder | pegasus_, And what OS is? These systems are complex.. | 11:38 |

Younder | Dwarg, wait your turn , and see is anyone answers. | 11:40 |
Dwarg | sagaci yay a guy i can use | 11:40 |

Dwarg | yea sory guys | 11:40 |
freeday | how do I run/install my visual studio c++ compiled application in Ubuntu? | 11:40 |

stianhj | freeday, what libraries does the application depend on? | 11:41 |
bethdo97 | i have a laptop that has Windows 7 premium innstalled on it. It is used as a desktop replacement and has DRD-RW , wireeless networkiing and I use it primarily as a desktop computer. Should I install the netbook version or the desktop version to get the most out of ubuntu as a dual boot system. I wannt to use some of thhe multimedia applications and allso facilitate the playing of some of the older dos based FPS games thru their | 11:41 |
Gnea | pegasus_: exactly my point. so, were you able to get pastebinit installed? | 11:41 |
Ethelwulf | Yeah, the most recent ATI drivers for my laptop only work on 8.?? and older :( | 11:41 |
Younder | pegasus_, Search the web. Start with ubuntu and some keywords about the problem | 11:41 |
sagaci | Dwarg, what errors are you getting | 11:41 |
Dwarg | can't see anything when i do a sudo airmon-ng start wlan0 | 11:41 |
stianhj | bethdo97, I'd definatly go for the normal desktop version | 11:41 |
stianhj | definitely* | 11:42 |
freeday | stianhj, hold on got to find what are they... | 11:42 |
Gnea | bethdo97: well, since netbooks don't have cd/dvd drives in them, I'd go with the desktop | 11:42 |
bethdo97 | 10.10 or 10.04LTS version? | 11:42 |
stianhj | bethdo97, 10.10 (and 10.04 LTS if you have problems) | 11:42 |
sagaci | Dwarg, so did that guide go OK, any errors? | 11:42 |
Dwarg | after i ran that fix u linked after a clean install it just seems like my wireless disapeared | 11:42 |
stianhj | bethdo97, i'm running 10.04 because I had problems with N networks and my intel wifi card in 10.10 | 11:42 |
Dwarg | diden stop or anything as i could see | 11:42 |
sagaci | Dwarg, pastebin the output of airmon-ng | 11:43 |
Dwarg | but when i do sudo airmon-ng start wlan0 nothing comes up except the 5 procceses it suggest i cloose if programs dosent work | 11:43 |
Gnea | bethdo97: most will likely say 10.10, but I recommend 10.04 | 11:43 |

bethdo97 | ok | 11:45 |

Dwarg | its b4311 | 11:46 |
mehdi | ##linux-mint | 11:46 |
sagaci | bethdo97, April 2011 | 11:46 |
bethdo97 | ok | 11:46 |
Gnea | bethdo97: you can do a dualboot, but make sure you back your stuff up first | 11:46 |
Ethelwulf | 6 month release cycles | 11:46 |
Dwarg | and i got card to show before i run that bug fix with the -1 channel | 11:46 |
sagaci | Dwarg, try installing the proprietary driver | 11:46 |
Dwarg | already installed | 11:46 |
Younder | vooze, There is probably not a fix for that yet. USB3 is pretty new | 11:47 |
with23nails | usually there is couple of text files (README and stuff) included with source code. Should I move information from those to /debiab/? | 11:47 |
Dwarg | installed them before i did the fix | 11:47 |
Dwarg | seriusl strange tho all others who psoted reply to that one said it just worked | 11:47 |
Dwarg | wth have i done wrong | 11:47 |
sapphz | how do i allow remote connections via terminal | 11:48 |
sagaci | Dwarg, did you install the STA or B43 driver? | 11:48 |
vooze | Younder, so nothing to do ? :( | 11:48 |
vooze | guess i should have bought a computer with usb 2.0 ? :P | 11:48 |
blahsphemer | sapphz, setup a vnc | 11:49 |
Dwarg | i installed the firmware-b43-installer | 11:49 |
stianhj | vooze, you have no usb 2.0 ports? | 11:49 |
yuskhanzab | hello all, i have application request like IDM(Internet Download Manager). is there any software that like idm in ubuntu? | 11:49 |
freeday | stianhj, how do i find out what library does my application depends on, im confused finding it on Visual Studio C++ IDE? | 11:49 |
sapphz | its all set up but when i reboot, i have to tell it to allow connections again, unfortunatly i no longer have access to it directly. and currently i can only access the machine via terminal | 11:50 |
Younder | vooze, you could try: sudo echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches | 11:50 |
vooze | stianhj, not sure.. have to check the computer manuel to see if they are all usb 3.0 | 11:50 |
stianhj | vooze, for det høres litt rart ut | 11:50 |
Dwarg | sagaci isent there something about modprobe b43 or somethin? | 11:50 |
Dwarg | read about a guy who had to do some odd things to get hes to work not same card tho was a b4312 | 11:51 |

Dwarg | anyone else able to tell me what to do about the driver thing after running the -1 channel fix for aircrack??? | 11:55 |
Younder | vooze, It's worked in the past., but my experience with USB 3.0 is limited. | 11:55 |
bazhang | Dwarg, #aircrack-ng may help | 11:55 |
Dwarg | ty m8 ill try that | 11:56 |
jpds | Younder / vooze: The problem with sudo echo $THING > /file - is that the redirect ('>') is run as your user, and not as root, which can't write to a /proc/ file. | 11:56 |
Ethelwulf | http://paste.ubuntu.com/566939/ Ok, so that went like it should but now it's telling me the link is broken when I try to open it. | 11:56 |
Younder | vooze, OK. 'Sudo su', followed by 'echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches' works | 11:57 |
jpds | Younder: Or, "echo 3 | sudo tee ..." as I suggested. ;) | 11:57 |
Younder | vooze, then su <yourname> afterwards | 11:57 |

Gnea | Ethelwulf: it wouldn't, there is no symlinking in windows | 12:02 |
freeday | yeah I tried installing my win32 app compiled in vsc++ IDE but I failed.. | 12:03 |
edwardteach | freeday, have you tried cedega ? | 12:05 |
stianhj | freeday, you either need to compile the program as a windows app, and try to run i throught wine, or you need to port it to linux (switch out the Win32 GUI stuff with GTK or Qt) | 12:05 |
freeday | maybe got to check on that one... | 12:05 |

aristidesfl | adding acpi=off on grub config | 12:12 |
aristidesfl | now I have another option in the boot menu, that doesn't work | 12:13 |
bc81 | how can i check cd/dvd drive capabilities from the terminal? | 12:13 |
aristidesfl | tried to take the option from grub config and update | 12:13 |
Gnea | bc81: try the eject command | 12:13 |
aeiah | aristidesfl: did your shutdown/reboot problems happen before you turned acpi off? | 12:13 |
bc81 | Gnea: i was thinking more along the line of burning capabilities, speed etc | 12:14 |
aristidesfl | aeiah: not sure | 12:14 |
aristidesfl | aeiah: but I took the option out already and update grub | 12:14 |
Gnea | bc81: cdrecord has some options, iirc | 12:14 |
aristidesfl | aeiah: however the boot option is still there and doesn't work | 12:14 |
=== richard is now known as Guest39696 | ||
aeiah | acpi = "advanced configuration and power interface" .. so you probably created a new prob trying to solve your other. | 12:15 |

Tristan3199us | rwat, i have tried restart gdm.. not my problem... heres another note.. if i go to system/admin/ login-manager.. it does nothing.. | 12:43 |
aristidesfl | er hangs | 12:43 |
Tristan3199us | wont even load up.. | 12:43 |
Gnea | aristidesfl: something went wrong | 12:43 |
aristidesfl | Gnea: just fresh installed | 12:44 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: are you paying any attention to what I'm saying? | 12:44 |
Taksas027 | when i want to install drivers i get SystemError: installArchives() failed, what does it mean? | 12:44 |
Tristan3199us | there is no repository for the login manager anywhere??? | 12:44 |
Gnea | !fsck | Tristan3199us | 12:44 |
ubottu | Tristan3199us: 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 | 12:44 |
Random832 | aristidesfl: have you tried ctrl-alt-f2? i've found that sometimes it seems to hang but the splash screen just didn't clear | 12:44 |

aristidesfl | Random832: ctrl-alt-f2 does nothing | 12:46 |
jrib | hal: you need to use nautilus in particular? | 12:46 |

Diverdude | I have a set of approximately 100 text files with in average 50 lines of text in each. I need to replace all occurances of the value 'BSD' with the value 'SIA' in all the textfiles as well as in all filenames. (All files are located in the same folder) What is the best approach to do this? | 12:47 |
jrib | hal: you can use « find » in a shell | 12:47 |
hal | jrib: hmm, no I'd like a gui please | 12:47 |
jrib | Diverdude: use sed | 12:47 |
Tristan3199us | gnea.. im on a laptop, with no cd drive and my usb isnt currently booting ubuntu... | 12:47 |
Diverdude | jrib, sed? | 12:47 |
jrib | Diverdude: yep... | 12:47 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: your usb... that makes little sense | 12:47 |
Diverdude | jrib, is it by default in ubuntu=? | 12:47 |
schnuffle | Diverdude: yes | 12:48 |
jrib | Diverdude: well « sed » for the contents and you can use « rename » for the filenames. They're both in ubuntu, yes. You want to read some intro material on sed and regex. Let me know if you have questions | 12:48 |
Tristan3199us | ahhh.. ok??? | 12:48 |
Diverdude | jrib, i cannot use grep for this? | 12:49 |
jrib | Diverdude: grep is for finding things | 12:49 |
Diverdude | ahh right | 12:49 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: don't know what you mean by 'usb' | 12:49 |

AdvoWork | hi there, got issues with firefox on ubuntu, when i goto print, it keeps saying US Letter, rather than A4. Ive followed endless guides and bug reports but cannot fix this. Any ideas please? | 12:52 |
Tristan3199us | login manager is simply another package in the repos right?? | 12:52 |
Gnea | why does this livecd have to keep kernel panicing.... | 12:52 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: what you're going to need to do is to fix the filesystem before you can boot into the GUI, okay? | 12:53 |
Tristan3199us | gnea... couldnt i install i new login manager... from xfce or kde perhaps?? | 12:53 |
Tristan3199us | gnea.. ok | 12:53 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: no, it's a filesystem problem, installing new software only makes the problem worse, not solves it | 12:53 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: you wouldn't fire another bullet into a knife wound, you'd use proper first aid measures and wrap it to stop the bleeding | 12:54 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: make sense now? | 12:54 |
sipior | Gnea: you must come from a rough part of town... | 12:54 |
Tristan3199us | quick note... i added xfce-desktop from the repos recently.. it changed my login screen for a couple days.. that was the souce of the problem i think | 12:55 |
rwat | Tristan3199us: are you getting an actual error before it drops to the recovery screen? | 12:55 |
Tristan3199us | rwat.. yes but it flashs so fast i cant read it.. | 12:56 |
Tristan3199us | it flashs red letters for a split second and goes to the recovery console to fast to see it | 12:56 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: sorry if my analogy is a bit graphic, but it's rather appropriate given your current situation | 12:57 |
Gnea | sipior: not originally, but was prepared for it.. | 12:57 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: alright, but it's dropping you to the recovery console now, so that means the problems have compounded | 12:57 |
Tristan3199us | but i have splash screen off... and i know it makes it to the end of the boot sequence.. just before the login screen loads | 12:57 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: are you able to shift+pageup once it's done to see some scrollback? | 12:58 |
Tristan3199us | what do you mean "now".. thats the only problem really | 12:58 |
Tristan3199us | i have never tried shift+pgup | 12:58 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: no, there's multiple problems involved, they need to be identified and solved in the proper order | 12:58 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: see what happens | 12:59 |

anonboots | So, NE rootkit for 9.04 to be had? | 13:01 |
Gnea | ashu: no idea about android, you'll need to ask in #debian. | 13:01 |

Tristan3199us | gnea.. ok so i have 3 partitions.. one is my almost broken ubuntu 10.10.. one is backtrack "aka kde".. and the other is just a storage partition... i can boot from ubuntu as root via the command prompt and using startx it boots up using root.. i can type login , and log in via terminal, but it seems useless because startx still loads as root.. and backtrack works just fine.. | 13:02 |
anonboots | Would any of you fine people happen to have the name and or location where I can find a rootkit for Ubuntu 9.04 please? Your assistance would be much appreciated. | 13:02 |
sipior | anonboots: asking about rootkits here would be considered "poor form". | 13:03 |
Tristan3199us | gnea: im currently using ubuntu 10.10 as root | 13:03 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: then you should boot into backtrack and then fsck your ubuntu partition from there | 13:03 |
Tristan3199us | than what?? | 13:03 |
rwat | anonboots: what do you need it for? | 13:03 |
Faithful | where is the autogenerated xorg.conf file stashed in Maverick? | 13:03 |
Gnea | !9.04 | 13:03 |
ubottu | Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) was the tenth release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: October 23, 2010. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. | 13:03 |
anonboots | Testing my IRC network. | 13:03 |
Gnea | !eol | anonboots | 13:03 |
ubottu | anonboots: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 13:03 |
sipior | anonboots: oh, aye. | 13:04 |
Gnea | anonboots: I would just google for one | 13:04 |
popey | Faithful: there is no generated xorg.conf, xorg configures itself without an xorg.conf. You can however put one in /etc/X11/ if you want | 13:04 |
anonboots | Yea, I did, but I only ended up finding links to worthless threads on HackForums. | 13:04 |
Faithful | popey, thanks | 13:04 |
anonboots | But otherwise, 9.04 is EOF now? I was unaware. Thanks for that tidbit. | 13:05 |
Tristan3199us | gnea: than what.. just use the four letters fsck while in the terminal in backtrack?? | 13:05 |
anonboots | EOL. Derp. Its still early. | 13:05 |
Gnea | anonboots: really? what search items did you query with? | 13:05 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: pretty much, have you ever used it before? | 13:05 |
Tristan3199us | gnea: no, is it something i should be doing regularly | 13:06 |
anonboots | Various configurations of "rootkit 9.04" "ubuntu rootkit" ect and ect. | 13:06 |
rwat | Tristan3199us: either that or you can remount read-only and fsck | 13:06 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: if the system won't do it for you, it helps to know how to do it manually | 13:06 |
Gnea | rwat: he's got backtrack on another partition and can boot to it | 13:06 |
rwat | Gnea: I've no idea what backtrack is | 13:07 |
rwat | I suppose I can guess | 13:07 |
Gnea | rwat: an unofficial derivative of ubuntu | 13:07 |
Tristan3199us | rwat.. just consider it a really basic version of kde | 13:07 |
anonboots | Backtrack is a penetration testing distribution. | 13:07 |
rwat | I don't see what that's go to offer that remounting read-only doesn't | 13:07 |
Gnea | rwat: point is to fsck the ubuntu from the backtrack, not have to worry about remounting | 13:08 |
bc81 | is there a cli trick to opening the only newest file in a given directory? | 13:08 |
Tristan3199us | gnea.. i think its easier to remount and stay in chat than to reboot to another os and try to remember everything | 13:08 |
rwat | Gnea: yeah I can see that, but it's quicker to remount | 13:08 |
Gnea | quicker isn't always safer | 13:09 |
bc81 | let me rephrase that (typo) is there a cli trick to opening "the" newest file in a given directory? | 13:09 |
sacarlson | rwat: backtrack is just a mild modification of ubuntu/debian what works for us normaly will work for them | 13:09 |
Gnea | the fact he's booted into X via startx is bad enough | 13:09 |
Gnea | bc81: ls -l will show you all of the timestamps | 13:09 |
Tristan3199us | so gnea.. ill log out and back in 4 minutes or so... will you still help me.. | 13:10 |
Tristan3199us | ill load up backtrack instead.. and ill try that shift+pgup first and tell you what i see | 13:10 |
Gnea | rwat: in fact, X is going to need the fs to be rw, so he could start fscking and the whole thing could just freeze on him ... in the middle of a fsck, that's potentially REALLY bad news. No, he's better off booting to backtrack and getting back on irc. | 13:10 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: okay | 13:11 |
Taksas027 | how to look if im on 32bit or 64? | 13:11 |
Tristan3199us | gnea: thank you | 13:11 |
rwat | Gnea: yeah, well I would always fsck from a console wherever possible | 13:11 |
Gnea | Taksas027: uname -m | 13:11 |
bc81 | Gnea: ok, but for eg. i'd like to open the "newest" text file among many text files with a single command..is it possible? | 13:11 |
Gnea | rwat: console's fine, but so's a GUI as long as it's not booted off of the target partition | 13:11 |
Tristan3199us | gnea: should i type something in the terminal before i load backtrack | 13:11 |
Taksas027 | i686 means64? | 13:11 |
Gnea | Taksas027: no, 32bit. x86_64 would be 64bit | 13:12 |
Tristan3199us | back track uses a terminal login instead of gui so i can enter commands before booting.. | 13:12 |
bc81 | Gnea: i suppose this funtion would need to be a script of some sort? | 13:12 |
Taksas027 | ah ok, thx | 13:12 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: yeah, get on irc, you should have xchat there already | 13:12 |
Gnea | bc81: possibly, haven't heard of doing anything like that, though.... just a matter of looking and seeing what's there, really | 13:13 |
root_ | hey | 13:13 |
bc81 | Gnea: k, thanks again :) | 13:13 |
Gnea | bc81: you could script it to create a symlink to the last file | 13:13 |
Tristan3199us | never used xchat in the terminal.. this should be interesting.. anything i need to know or is it almost self explanitory | 13:13 |
Gnea | bc81: then just edit the symlink | 13:13 |
bc81 | Gnea: that is a good idea | 13:13 |

Gnea | offsense: cheers | 13:30 |

tristan3199 | Gnea: Thank you, BRB | 13:32 |
xro | mcb_2, no, there is no /var/run/dbus | 13:32 |

jpds | Why would pidgin, an IM client, want to do twitter? | 13:33 |
offsense | yes ppl, any suggestion for twitter client except gwibber | 13:34 |
rwat | jpds: just because Adium (mac equivalent) does do twitter | 13:34 |
Gnea | jpds: twitter is basically IM with lots of lag and permeability | 13:34 |

xro | sipior, with sudo [command] | 13:36 |
Tristan3199us | still the same by the way | 13:36 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: uh, is the login coming up? | 13:36 |
sipior | xro: and can you pastebin the exact error that is reported? | 13:36 |
Tristan3199us | nope.. same recovery console | 13:37 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: can you switch tty's with alt-F1, alt-F2, alt-F3...alt-F6? | 13:37 |
Tristan3199us | i could only catch bits because it doesnt stay on screen.. but i noticed it says the dbun main process terminated due to a broken pipe | 13:37 |
^Phantom2^ | um | 13:38 |
Tristan3199us | no idea what a dbus or broken pipe is | 13:38 |
^Phantom2^ | how do i get the controls back on totem? | 13:38 |
^Phantom2^ | I accidentally made them go away | 13:38 |
Tristan3199us | gnea... i can try.. | 13:38 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: ok, run this command: ps axf | grep dbus | wc -l <-- what number does that give? | 13:38 |
Tristan3199us | will it act the same before x is loaded.. can i try those keys in terminal to see if they work..? | 13:39 |
^Phantom2^ | oh nvm, i got them back | 13:39 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: they have to be in the console/terminal, not when X is running. if X is running, you have to use ctrl-alt-f1, etc | 13:39 |
Tristan3199us | 5 | 13:39 |
Gnea | Tristan3199us: okay, good bet that dbus is really working fine and it's just a warning message, nothing to be worried about | 13:39 |

rigved | hi everyone...i want to install debian on a pc using netboot. here, after the bootloader on the pc has loaded, i want it to load the installation image from a dhcp server, which will be on my ubuntu laptop. can anyone tell me how to do this? or can anyone tell me if such a thing is documented somewhere on the debian manual? | 14:26 |
cool | rigved: goto #debian | 14:27 |
bazhang | rigved, ask in #debian ? | 14:27 |
Oer | cool check the hardware list, just released > http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog | 14:27 |
schnuffle | aroshlakshan: another time: 1. open a terminal, 2. enter: sudo vi /etc/fstab, 3. add a line: /dev/<yourntfspartition> /mountpoint ntfs defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007 0 0 | 14:27 |

cool | bazhang: Ubuntu 2.6? I run 10.4LTS. Will it work? | 14:28 |
surial | Huh, how do you escape a ! in a string in bash? Just a ! does a history search, but \! includes the backslash in the string. D'oh. | 14:28 |
cool | Oer: Thanks | 14:28 |
rigved | cool, bazhang: well, i just wanted to know how to set up the dhcp server to serve this request and how to configure tftpd to send the installation image to the pc | 14:29 |
bazhang | cool, lucid uses 2.6.32.28.32 | 14:29 |
milamber | surial: http://tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/sect_03_03.html | 14:29 |
aroshlakshan | k think i got it | 14:29 |
rigved | milamber: that will install everything from the internet, not from an already downloaded image on my laptop | 14:29 |
aroshlakshan | thanks guys | 14:29 |
aroshlakshan | keep up the good work | 14:30 |
cool | bazhang: Then should would work. Thanks | 14:30 |
surial | milamber: This page is wrong. | 14:30 |
surial | milamber: It contains an example that does not work. | 14:30 |
cool | Oer: Looks like its supported. http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog/model/pci:0781:1814-NETWORK Thanks again | 14:30 |
surial | milamber: echo "I'd say: \"Go for it!\"" <-- the result according to that page is 'I'd say: "Go for it!"'. That's not what hapepns. what happens is the usual: event not found. | 14:30 |
milamber | surial: did you try the single quotes? | 14:31 |
Oer | cool, have fun :-) | 14:31 |
erUSUL | surial: disable history expansion | 14:31 |
surial | milamber: That would work, except I need variable substitution eearlier in the string. Can I concat a double-quoted string adn a single-quoted string? | 14:31 |
snapp | hi | 14:32 |
snapp | i have a question | 14:32 |
Geniuso | Can anyone tell me where I can find ~/.wine folder ???? | 14:32 |
erUSUL | Geniuso: ~/.wine is the whole path. ~ expands to your home folder | 14:33 |
milamber | rigved: tftp net booting is not what you are looking for? | 14:33 |
ljsoftnet | Geniuso: its on your home folder, dont forget to click on "View Hidden Files" in nautilus | 14:33 |
erUSUL | Geniuso: so $HOME/,wine , ~/.wine and /home/yourusername/.wine are the same thing | 14:33 |
milamber | surial: should be able to | 14:33 |
erUSUL | $HOME/.wine* | 14:33 |
snapp | i want create LVM but the space must be to the initial disk or it can also when the already present system? | 14:34 |
Skeeter- | Good Morning everyone. I would like to remove completly my debian and install ubuntu. My only concern is my RAID6, if i copy the fstab over will that be enough or i need some more other config files | 14:35 |
erUSUL | Skeeter-: /etc/mdadm/ folder comes to mind | 14:35 |
Skeeter- | erUSUL: ya, sry mdadm configs 4 sure. | 14:35 |
erUSUL | surial: if you haven't figured it yet... disable history expansion --> set +o histexpand | 14:36 |
rigved | milamber: yes. but the netboot image of debian is a just a bootloader which is loaded via tftp. after that, the remaining installation is carried from the internet. what i want is the pc to load an installation image from my ubuntu laptop | 14:36 |
surial | erUSUL: Right. I was trying to avoid futzing about with that. | 14:36 |
erUSUL | surial: i have it in my bashrc as i find it useless | 14:36 |
surial | I actually like it. | 14:36 |
Geniuso | erUSUL: I cant see wine folder how to unhide this folder ? | 14:36 |
erUSUL | Geniuso: crtl + h in nautilus window | 14:37 |
surial | I'd have to start a subshell and disable it there so as not to mess with the shell itself. I guess that's whate it takes to escape a #%(*@#$(*#@ exclamation mark. Urgh. I might just rewrite this in a real programming language. | 14:37 |
erUSUL | surial: should not affect in a script; only in interactive shell afaik | 14:37 |
surial | erUSUL: huh? | 14:38 |
surial | erUSUL: If I put echo "hello!" in a script, it'll fail. | 14:38 |
Geniuso | erUSUL: tnx i see now this | 14:38 |
jrib | surial: use single quotes, not double | 14:38 |
surial | erUSUL: I could put shopt in there, but if this script is sourced or whatnot, won't that cause the setopt to stick around for whomever invoked it? Which is what I'm trying to avoid. | 14:38 |
surial | jrib: I'm simplifying the question. My actual use case includes variable expansion and thus cannot use single quotes. | 14:38 |
jrib | surial: I don't understand how that would matter. | 14:39 |
surial | jrib: echo '$bar!' will just print $bar! - it won't expand the bar variable. | 14:39 |
jrib | surial: foo=bar; echo "$foo"'!' | 14:39 |
surial | Oh that works? | 14:40 |
surial | hold on. | 14:40 |
milamber | rigved: http://www.debian.org/releases/etch/i386/ch04s06.html.en i am sorry, but i am not sure how this is not what you want. you can set up a local machine with an image (DHCP) and tell the computer to install that image. | 14:40 |
surial | Well, colour me green and call me a parakeet. That was in hindsight logical. Thanks! | 14:40 |
jrib | surial: yeah, that's how you concatenate strings in bash | 14:40 |
rigved | milamber: yes that's exactly what i wanted. thanks anyways for your help! :) | 14:41 |
jrib | parakeet: anyway, I'm off, bye! | 14:41 |

pol | good morning can some one help me? I have an aplication from work, it is a .exe. How can I set up exe files? in ubunto notebook. PS I have already wine intall | 15:24 |
sipior | majidd: you can always build gcc 2.9 from source. that could be fun. | 15:24 |
eXpLoD | isn't the terminal actually a bash shell? | 15:24 |
ActionParsnip | pol: right click the file, mark it as executable in the properties of the file, then open it with wine | 15:24 |
slipkid08 | and yes, try reinstalling bluez | 15:24 |
majidd | sipior: I have tried, but I get errors | 15:24 |
developerhealey | is there any Calendar servers that work well on UBUNTU for smart phones like iphones/blackberry etc and windows standalone apps... i need a point in the right direction i tried googling it... | 15:24 |
ActionParsnip | eXpLoD: the default is bash, you can use any shell you desire | 15:24 |
schnuffle | majidd: debian woody uses gcc 2.95, I still have a machine runing just for that prupose | 15:25 |
rumpe1 | majidd, why not use another hardware simulator? | 15:25 |
tiptop | schunffle installed four packages, one more is a tar.gz package, dpkg -i does not work | 15:25 |
majidd | rumpe1: it must be simplescalar-arm | 15:25 |
slipkid08 | rsh | 15:25 |
slipkid08 | look up | 15:25 |
eXpLoD | so that means i can use a python shell as defualt in the terminal for instance? | 15:25 |
ActionParsnip | eXpLoD: you define the users shell in /etc/passwd you can use dash if you desire (for example) | 15:25 |
majidd | schnuffle, do you know the name of repositories it uses? | 15:25 |
rsh | yes i m doing it. | 15:25 |
deivison | uhuuuuuhuuuuhuuuhuu | 15:25 |
schnuffle | tiptop: tar.gz is certainly a source code package, the normal way to install is: unpack, enter directory, read README, ./configure, make, make install | 15:26 |
slipkid08 | ok | 15:26 |
deivison | www.orkut.com | 15:26 |
majidd | schnuffle, maybe I could add them to my sources.list and install it by synaptic | 15:26 |
slipkid08 | rsh: You might have to build your own BT stack to handle it | 15:26 |
deivison | Meeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnggoooooooooooooooooooo | 15:26 |
gpc | deivison: please don't do that | 15:26 |
schnuffle | majidd: repositories are gone | 15:27 |
majidd | schnuffle: pardon? | 15:27 |
slipkid08 | and in that case, someone of a strong BT/Linux background might be of more assistance to you, I am just kinda pointing you in the direction | 15:27 |
rsh | slipkid08, how do i bulid it | 15:27 |
deivison | Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnggooooooooooooooooooooo | 15:27 |

evilsushi | I am trying to make my irssi boot when my laptop starts, could I do this through rc.local? | 15:58 |
rapture | rumpel - perhaps when I can afford enough hard disks/BR burners to have one | 15:58 |
Nisstyre | happy Singles Awareness Day #ubuntu | 15:58 |
wolfric | ActionParsnip: and with the amount of vulnerabilities these days... i'm not too positive about using it | 15:58 |
LinuxNoob | nisstyre you too :( | 15:58 |
rapture | as a student I'm afraid I do not have the cash to back up 2+TB on a regular basis | 15:58 |
sipior | HanHeld: you might consider looking at "mutt", which is rather nicer | 15:58 |
ActionParsnip | wolfric: there are vulnerabilities in many softwares | 15:59 |
foxjaz | LinuxNoob: why would a noob be able to help, or is that sarcasm? | 15:59 |
rumpe1 | rapture, just for system and profiles you probably only need a few GBs... | 15:59 |
LinuxNoob | actionparsnip: yes there is, thats what i want to get my job in eventually :) | 15:59 |
HanHeld | sipior ok, I can do that. That should work just fine with google's pop servers? | 15:59 |
rapture | I think I just need to learn the intricacies of rsync better | 15:59 |
wolfric | ActionParsnip: the amount of which is a large factor in what software i use though. Orrather the frequency and severity of the vulnerabilities found | 15:59 |
needlez | rapture: couldn't you use umask to set permissions for all new files and such?? just wondering if that would help | 15:59 |
LinuxNoob | foxjax: im a noob at linux, throw a windows comp in front of me and its fixed :D | 15:59 |
rumpe1 | rapture, depends on you | 15:59 |
rapture | what does umask do? | 15:59 |
foxjaz | LinuxNoob: did I say windows locks up, no I said linux locks up. Just locks up, no idea | 16:00 |
rapture | I preserved symlinks, I probably just messed up on something about permissions | 16:00 |
memoryleak | the only way i fix windows is reinstalling it :) | 16:00 |
sipior | HanHeld: ideally, you would use getmail or the like to grab the mail and inject it locally. imap is a much better option in general; does that not work for you? | 16:00 |
rapture | foxjaz, do you mean it's been on standby and then won't unlock? | 16:00 |
LinuxNoob | foxjaz: but, what is ur CPU, are u on a desktop? how old is the comp, about how long till it locks up | 16:01 |
LinuxNoob | i think i already know whats wrong, but i want more info | 16:01 |
foxjaz | LinuxNoob: could be the fatal errors on startup, but who knows. The install of unity wasn't perfect it seems. (yes rapture that's it) I have a 1015PEM netbook | 16:01 |
rapture | needlez, what does umask do? | 16:01 |
teddyb | im trying to follow this guide: http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/hacks/opensource/0596527209/i-0596527209-chp-1-sect-11.html but im getting stuck on the part that says "Check /etc/inetd.conf and make sure it has a line like this:" i dont seem to have /etc/inetd.conf on my ubuntu 10.10 | 16:01 |
sipior | HanHeld: not sure if the ubuntu version of mutt has pop3 support compiled in, but it probably does. | 16:01 |
rapture | foxjaz, I used to have no end of trouble with suspend back in the day | 16:01 |
HanHeld | sipior I don't know how to use imap, and I'd rather not set up an extra server. ideally I'd just put something like 'ifconfig >mail -s reboot address han@gmail.com' or somehting. | 16:02 |
rapture | I think it was something to do with X not properly reinitialising on wake | 16:02 |
rapture | but I could be totally off | 16:02 |
HanHeld | sipior put that into cron or whatever so it runs on reboot | 16:02 |
sipior | HanHeld: well, you wouldn't be setting up an extra server; that's the point of making use of google's impa server. | 16:02 |
LinuxNoob | i still cant use sleep, hibernate or anything, locks up my screen and i cant do anything, i have to to a manual reboot | 16:02 |
foxjaz | rapture: what you do? I don't know what's up with this thing. I would like to run a repair, although I did run the update sucessfully. | 16:02 |
foxjaz | LinuxNoob: yea I do the old hard reboot to get it back | 16:02 |
Starminn | Is there a way to have an audio player fetch the album information like it would on Window$? I'm using Banshee, but I think it's just that I don't know what thing I'm looking for so whatever it's called in Rhythmbox would likely do. | 16:03 |
HanHeld | sipior ok, I'll go read up on google's imap and see what I can figure out. Thanks. :) | 16:03 |
sipior | HanHeld: have fun :-) | 16:03 |
rapture | foxjaz, I stopped suspending. | 16:03 |
needlez | rapture: umask, allows you to set properties for new files and folders that you install or download automatically from what my teacher was explaining. you can give it any permissions like you would give chmod but the values are different numbers but have the same effects as far as rwx rwx rwx or rw rw rw or whatever you set them for | 16:03 |
foxjaz | yea, if your hand hurts, don't bang it on the wall kinda thing | 16:03 |
rapture | given how fast a modern version of ubuntu boots, foxjaz, it's barely worth it | 16:03 |
LinuxNoob | foxjaz, how old is the netbook, and this problem only seems to happen in linux? | 16:03 |
ilea | anyone knows a good software for watching tv? | 16:03 |
LinuxNoob | ilea, from cable or internet? | 16:03 |
ilea | internet | 16:04 |
LinuxNoob | (this is ubuntu, but i wont yell) | 16:04 |
foxjaz | LinuxNoob: netbook brand new, just installed an ssd 65gig and it rocks | 16:04 |
rapture | Miro? | 16:04 |
ActionParsnip | ilea: tvtime | 16:04 |
paris_ | it is me again! how to download youtube file? | 16:04 |
LinuxNoob | it say..torrent or hulu | 16:04 |
r\wWorld | ilea, myp2p.eu | 16:04 |
rapture | paris_ - which browser? | 16:04 |
LinuxNoob | right click download paris_:? | 16:04 |
ActionParsnip | paris_: use youtube-dl | 16:04 |
paris_ | chrome | 16:04 |
BiPolah | paris_: You could find the absolute path of the video and use wget | 16:04 |
rapture | or use a website to do it | 16:04 |
rapture | I'd just google it | 16:05 |
AbhijiT | help | 16:05 |
AbhijiT | i cant ping | 16:05 |
AbhijiT | but i am connected | 16:05 |
AbhijiT | help | 16:05 |
rapture | needlez, hmm, that doesn't really help | 16:05 |
LinuxNoob | wait what | 16:05 |
FloodBot2 | AbhijiT: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 16:05 |
AbhijiT | and then it says ping timje out and reconnected me | 16:05 |
ilea | i was asking only because i have tv maxe a software that enabels me to watch all tv chanels from my country | 16:05 |
davidgroves | ok since no one will help me in the #lubuntu channel, I am using lubuntu, can someone tell me how to get my trash can onto my desktop? | 16:05 |
ilea | :) | 16:05 |
ActionParsnip | AbhijiT: ease upon the enter key dude | 16:05 |
vish | AbhijiT: we hear ya! | 16:05 |
foxjaz | I need an app to find wifi on the train home. anyone know of one? | 16:05 |
LinuxNoob | that means ur not pinging, who are u trying to ping? | 16:05 |
BiPolah | foxjaz, regular wireless controller? | 16:05 |
needlez | rapture: ok, then I prolly misunderstood what you were trying to do | 16:05 |
ActionParsnip | AbhijiT: can you ping the default gateway ok (your router) | 16:05 |
LinuxNoob | and why | 16:05 |
* rapture shudders | 16:05 | |
foxjaz | BiPolah: yea | 16:05 |
rapture | needlez, basically I've broken loads of permissions on my system | 16:05 |
ActionParsnip | AbhijiT: can you ping 8.8.8.8 ? | 16:06 |
rapture | they're not necessarily set to 0777 or anything | 16:06 |
AbhijiT | ActionParsnip, now i can but before i cant. due to that it reconnected me. and this is second time happending. yesterday same thing. | 16:06 |
LinuxNoob | google? | 16:06 |
rapture | There doesn't seem to be much consistency, but it's broken all sorts of things | 16:06 |
ilea | if anyone wants i can post the page for that software and maybe someone can modify it to get their own country chanels | 16:06 |
BiPolah | Foxjaz: I mean just use nm-applet to connect. | 16:06 |
AbhijiT | ActionParsnip, 8.8.8.8 :No such nick/channe | 16:06 |
teddyb | guys any idea if im supposed to make inetd.conf myself or should it have been created when i installed tftpd-conf | 16:06 |
vish | AbhijiT: not on irc ;p | 16:06 |
LinuxNoob | 8.8.8.8 is google, ive thought about using them to port through. any thought on the idea? | 16:06 |
r\wWorld | davidgroves, symlink to it | 16:06 |
needlez | rapture: you could system wide reset them to just -rw or something with chmod i believe, not sure how though | 16:06 |
foxjaz | BiPolah: I will look for it, but the wifi connection changes as I go down the line. | 16:06 |
rapture | teddyb, sorry that I can't help you there | 16:06 |
Starminn | davidgroves: Create a launcher on the desktop? | 16:07 |
AbhijiT | vish, lol okay wait | 16:07 |
ilea | http://blog.ov1d1u.net/2010/11/tv-maxe.html | 16:07 |
Starminn | davidgroves: OR symlink it, that's better, yeah | 16:07 |
BiPolah | Foxjaz: Probably because it's losing signal from the previous one | 16:07 |
AbhijiT | ActionParsnip, yes i can ping 8.8.8.8 | 16:07 |
teddyb | ok thanks rapture | 16:07 |
BiPolah | LinuxNoob: 8.8.8.8 is one of Google's DNS servers isn't it? | 16:07 |
ilea | here it is a briliant software made by a romanian to watch tv | 16:07 |
foxjaz | yea, that's why I am looking for an application that will keep finding and connecting to an open one | 16:07 |
teddyb | hopefully someone can | 16:07 |
davidgroves | starminn: what is symlink | 16:07 |
LinuxNoob | bipolah: yeah, i read that if u port through them ur internet speed will increase | 16:07 |
ilea | and with a plugin you can record chanels | 16:07 |
BiPolah | LinuxNoob: I'm not sure how that would work, unless the DNS servers you use normally are ridiculously overloaded. | 16:08 |
ActionParsnip | AbhijiT: then your DNS sucks. Run: gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf then delete all text and add: nameserver 8.8.8.8 save the new file and close gedit and all browsers, then restart the browser | 16:08 |
rapture | teddyb, just wanted you to know you're not being ignored :) | 16:08 |
ilea | but you only get romanian chanels untill someone modify's it | 16:08 |
BiPolah | LinuxNoob: It wouldn't make your internet faster, it'd just be able to resolve IP addresses for you a bit quicker | 16:08 |
LinuxNoob | abhijiT: where do you live? are you on the computer that u are having problems with? | 16:08 |
rapture | davidgroves, it's like a shortcut | 16:08 |
BiPolah | Teddyb: What's your problem? | 16:08 |
BluesKaj | BiPolah, yes 8.8.8.8 is the primary google dns nameserver, the secondary is 8.8.4.4 | 16:09 |
davidgroves | i do not know how to do that, i cant even find the trash can anywhere on my system | 16:09 |
ActionParsnip | LinuxNoob: it's google's public DNS service, Google has many services | 16:09 |
BiPolah | BluesKaj: Ah, I knew they had two. Thought it was 8.8.8.8 and 4.4.4.4 | 16:09 |
foxjaz | when I try to connect to a wifi connection with a computer next to it, it locks up | 16:09 |
LinuxNoob | ahhh roger that | 16:09 |
foxjaz | this is replciable | 16:09 |
foxjaz | LinuxNoob: locks | 16:09 |
ActionParsnip | BiPolah: secondary is 8.8.4.4 | 16:09 |
BiPolah | DavidGroves: right click on a a panel > Add to panel > Rubbish Bin | 16:09 |
teddyb | bipolah: im trying to follow this guide: http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/hacks/opensource/0596527209/i-0596527209-chp-1-sect-11.html but im getting stuck on the part that says "Check /etc/inetd.conf and make sure it has a line like this:" i dont seem to have /etc/inetd.conf on my ubuntu 10.10 | 16:09 |
LinuxNoob | weird... | 16:09 |
vish | foxjaz: ask your questions all in one line so that others can follow easily | 16:09 |
rapture | shame it isn't 888444, like a posh laugh | 16:09 |
AbhijiT | LinuxNoob, yes | 16:10 |
LinuxNoob | vish: i was asking him more questons on top | 16:10 |
ActionParsnip | AbhijiT: does it now connect ok? | 16:10 |
foxjaz | vish: well I tried connecting to a wireless connection with a little computer icon next to it, and it locks my ubuntu | 16:10 |
rapture | davidgroves, well normally you can add one to the menu bars by right clicking and selecting "add to panel" | 16:10 |
LinuxNoob | abbhijiT: ive never had a problem with a network freezing up a comp | 16:10 |
rapture | the trash can, I mean | 16:10 |
BiPolah | Teddyb: It certainly exists, I'm looking at it right now. Are you sure the path is correct? Try Ctrl+H to show hidden files in case it's hidden for some reason | 16:10 |
r\wWorld | rapture, he said he's on lubuntu | 16:10 |
davidgroves | i found all of that but it lists no rubbish bin | 16:10 |
Starminn | davidgrove: Try this: Add a launcher on your desktop and point it to Trash:/// | 16:11 |
davidgroves | never mind guys i see it! | 16:11 |
davidgroves | thanks for your help! | 16:11 |
rapture | r\wWorld, I'm not familiar with lubuntu | 16:11 |
AbhijiT | ActionParsnip, yes now ok | 16:11 |
Starminn | davidgroves: Awesome, happy canning | 16:11 |
teddyb | bipolah : ok ill try that | 16:11 |
davidgroves | starminn: haha thanks | 16:11 |
paris | I download youtube-dl, but it can not download youtube file because ERROR: format not available for video | 16:11 |
BiPolah | Paris: Which format? | 16:12 |
LinuxNoob | weird.. | 16:12 |
LinuxNoob | i have no idea what youtube .exte is | 16:12 |
LinuxNoob | mp4? avi maybe | 16:12 |
rapture | MP4, FLV | 16:12 |
rapture | sometimes others, like webm (or whatever that format's extension is) | 16:12 |
DennisBagley | anyone : I have added a script to hourly cron ( /etc/cron.hourly/bup_wrap.sh chmod 700 shabang /bin/sh ) which calls a backup script ( /bup/bup.sh chmod 700, no shabang ) which contains some rsync stuff - but it does not run from cron - works ok on cli - any pointers ? or weirdness with anacron ( I normally use vixie-cron ) | 16:12 |
LinuxNoob | oh yeah everyone, dont care if this is OT, but..in 3 hours, i might start liking valentines day again | 16:13 |
paris | BiPolah! just youtube file, but I don't know which format is it. | 16:13 |
llutz | DennisBagley: it shouldn'thave "." in its name | 16:13 |
BiPolah | DennisBagley: Might I ask why you have a script to run a script? | 16:13 |
llutz | DennisBagley: man run-parts | 16:13 |
DennisBagley | llutz : nice - thanks | 16:13 |

LinuxNoob | haha llutz: i read that as "run man-parts" | 16:14 |
LinuxNoob | i was like "wtf..does that command do" | 16:14 |
AbhijiT | hey guys how should i know if frequency scaling is enabled or not | 16:14 |

If someone can point me to a different channel where the question is more appropriate, that'd be fine as well :P. | 16:16 |
ActionParsnip | paris: use youtube-dl | 16:16 |
Pici | TheAnarchist: Try #fedora | 16:16 |
BiPolah | teddyb: That's what I can see. I just checked the guide which says /etc/init.d/initd, which doesn't exist for me. | 16:16 |

LinuxNoob | what is the difference really between ubuntu and other distro's my instructor in school uses SUSE, my other uses redhat. what is much difference, i want to end up being a Network Admin, CCNA, CCIE, he said suse would be good for me, anyone can clear this up? | 16:18 |
Starminn | LinuxNoob: Try 'em and see. ;) | 16:18 |
vish | paris: well, if have 10.04 with flash 10.1 you dont need extra downloaders, if you are using firefox the files will be in your /tmp folder | 16:18 |

ubottu | LinuxNoob: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 16:18 |
ActionParsnip | LinuxNoob: they are all essentially the same OS, Linux. Just the differences are default WM/DE and package management system | 16:18 |
compdoc | they all are slighty different. how you configure things differ. get whatevr youre used to | 16:18 |
maco | LinuxNoob: overall there's a red hat way of doing things and a debian way. rh way has rpm and puts lots of stuff in /etc/sysconfig/ debian way uses dpkg and doesn't move things from default locations to /etc/sysconfig/ -- really, you should know both | 16:19 |
LinuxNoob | well im not really "used" to anything, im only on day like...7 or so actually | 16:19 |
Logan_WP | !server | snapp | 16:19 |

DennisBagley | llutz : I owe you one - that worked - or at least I am now getting something back from run-parts --list | 16:19 |
needlez | LinuxNoob: not really too much difference between them, but there are some things that are automatically installed in ubuntu, that arent in redhat, or suse and vice versa. personally for network working I'd suggest BT4 | 16:19 |

LinuxNoob | maco: well, i learned on windows lol, so i think of anything i do in linux as how it relates to windows, kinda like native language and one ur speaking, i hear in linux, and try to translate to windows, kinda hard x_X | 16:24 |
Pici | _ProGammer: Set a $PS1 | 16:24 |
_ProGammer | thank you | 16:24 |
needlez | ProGrammer: please explain what you mean, do you mean that you want to run the file that is in /bin/sh from anywhere ?? or am i wrong? | 16:24 |
_ProGammer | can you please tell me How ? | 16:24 |
SeanHeron | @Pici - thanks that worked fine! | 16:25 |
Pici | SeanHeron: Great! | 16:25 |
_ProGammer | when im running /bin/sh | 16:25 |
needlez | ProGammer: yes, first add #! /bin/sh to top of the script | 16:25 |
_ProGammer | i have shell but i dont have the current directory prompt | 16:25 |
=== dduffey_ is now known as dduffey-x | ||
needlez | ProGammer: then if you chmod the file to 4755 it will not require root priveleges to run it anymore and chmod 777 to excute the command | 16:26 |
_ProGammer | i have sh terminal in my own project | 16:27 |
bobg | _ProGammer, you need to set an environment var that controls what is displayed on the prompt -- google or man the shell to find out details | 16:27 |
_ProGammer | an editor | 16:27 |
needlez | ProGammer: first cd to the /bin/sh and then sudo gedit the script and then chmod the script file. then you will be able to open that bash script anywhere in the terminal | 16:27 |

PsyMan | 1. i had a hard time installing 10.10 on this machine but i noticed that the graphical installer live cd actually booted as alternate the installer one | 16:29 |
ActionParsnip | Starminn: you can use easytag and tag them, or use simple bash scripting to tag multiple files as you want | 16:29 |
maco | Starminn: usually if you're online when you rip the cd, and if the cd is in the Music Brainz db, it should happen automatically | 16:29 |
PsyMan | so i wonder if pressing a kb button triggers that | 16:29 |
Pici | PsyMan: The alternate installer isn't even present on the LiveCD | 16:30 |
Starminn | ActionParsnip: I know of it and actually have it, as well, I curious regarding how various Windows programs do so. | 16:30 |
PsyMan | 2. i had some issues so far and i wondered if the bugs are known | 16:30 |
Starminn | maco: Ah, alright, I suppose it just wasn't in the database. *shrug* Thanks. | 16:30 |
PsyMan | Pici: yeah, that's why i don't know what happened | 16:30 |
Pici | PsyMan: Are you sure that you have the LiveCD? | 16:30 |
maco | Starminn: sound juicer and amarok definitely do that. i think rhythmbox and banshee as well... so unless you used some fairly uncommon app...yeah, that'd be my guess | 16:31 |
PsyMan | gfx installer died and after a reboot i got s screen that seemed like the alternate one, worked like it too | 16:31 |
PsyMan | :p | 16:31 |

Starminn | maco: I'm using Banshee. All the music I've played thus far I had already named from when I used Windows (which I usually had to edit by hand since it got them wrong very frequently anyway), so that's alright. I can accept that I have an uncommon taste in music. *shrug* | 16:32 |

catphish | lostern: where a disk fails and refuses to read a block of data | 16:37 |
ActionParsnip | prod_: when you shutdown, add a command to unmount the NFS | 16:38 |

lostern | sipior: I try to write to a block and that data is not faithfully written to the disk. Is that disk failure? | 16:38 |

ActionParsnip | prod_: well, if you don't mount the NFS, is it ok to reboot etc> | 16:39 |
sipior | lostern: i would say it is a sign of impending failure, yes. | 16:39 |
sipior | lostern: is there a point to this sophistry? | 16:39 |
lostern | sipior: Does RAID-1 offer protection in that case? | 16:39 |
compdoc | theres an easy way to see if your drive is failing | 16:39 |

ActionParsnip | prod_: then add a command to unmount the NFS when you logoff | 16:40 |
catphish | raid1 does not verify data integrity, only handles a disk that refuses to read or write data | 16:40 |
jschall | hmm. guess it's chromium that got messed up. | 16:40 |
lostern | catphish: Thanks. Does RAID-5 offer integrity? | 16:40 |
catphish | afaik no RAID level does | 16:40 |
thangavel | does anyone know how to upgrade ubuntu by cds?? | 16:40 |
erUSUL | lostern: for data integrity you need a fs that does data checksuming ( or a esdternal program ) | 16:40 |
catphish | you would need n+2 to get data integrity | 16:41 |
prod_ | ActionParsnip, If i try to umount I get error. Device in use or something along those lines | 16:41 |

christian_lappy | bastidrazor: please post free -m output | 16:41 |
catphish | hashing every block of data you read from 3 separate disks is going to be very slow | 16:41 |
catphish | but you could theoretically do it | 16:41 |
prod_ | ActionParsnip, From all the googling i did this morning it seems that Network-manager is closing before umount-nfs | 16:42 |
ActionParsnip | prod_: hmm, then you can force the unmount or check what is in use with: lsof to see how it is in use | 16:42 |
catphish | it *may* be possible with raid6 but i've never tried it | 16:42 |

sipior | lostern: how about testing it and letting us know? given that btrfs is still in heavy development, any numbers you get would be rapidly out of date in any event. | 16:43 |
FloodBot2 | Smiley: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 16:43 |

schnuffle | tiptop2: apparently the chip you mentioned is some embed combined switch/controller, will have to google to sort out | 17:03 |
[4-tea-2] | ActionParsnip: yes, the full compiz monty, and I'm also using "avant-window-navigator" | 17:03 |
solenoid | jrib: ahh, I had not thought to try in that direction | 17:04 |
ActionParsnip | [4-tea-2]: tried without compiz? close AWN first though | 17:04 |
x_ | exit | 17:04 |
[4-tea-2] | ActionParsnip: no, because I don't consider working without compiz an option. ;) | 17:04 |
Pumpkin- | solenoid: su -c or @reboot in that users crontab would be what I'd do. | 17:04 |
ActionParsnip | [4-tea-2]: well you need to test to see if it is the thing causing the issue, don't you. Its reversible, it's just to test | 17:05 |
tiptop2 | schnuffle, or is it a simple problem of not defining the MAC address? I don't know how to find the MAC address ifconfig does not show MAC address, it shows inet address etc | 17:05 |
ActionParsnip | [4-tea-2]: if you don't test you will never find what is at fault will you | 17:06 |
solenoid | jrib: Pumpkin- let me try this out, will get back here in a few | 17:06 |
schnuffle | tiptop2: not really sure, try sudo insmod ks8842 | 17:06 |
[4-tea-2] | ActionParsnip: from a developer pov, that's definitely correct. From a user pov, I hoped for a "been there, do this" kinda response. ;) | 17:07 |
schnuffle | tiptop2: apparently there're module paramter to set te mac | 17:07 |
squig | any ideas how i can get a script to run before any other scripts in the boot process, i am new to the upstart methdology | 17:08 |
rapture | hmm, I can't seem to force a distro upgrade | 17:08 |
[4-tea-2] | ActionParsnip: if the solution for my problem is "don't use compiz", I'd rather not use gnome-panel, so as a user, I don't care if gnome-panel works without compiz, and I don't expect to be writing a bug report for this issue. | 17:08 |
squig | or is there a script that runs on shutdown | 17:08 |
jrib | squig: why? | 17:09 |
tiptop2 | schnuffle, sudo insmod KSZ8842 returns "no such file or directory" | 17:09 |
schnuffle | tiptop2: sudo insmod ks8842 | 17:10 |
squig | jrib I have a heap of machines that I am auto installing and then configuring cfengine with, but the hostname options gets set as ubuntu by the install, I can fix it by removing /etc/hostname before dhcpcd3 starts | 17:10 |

energyspirit | Hi, Can someone help me set up a vpn proxy on my vps server? I'll pay 3$ with paypal if you want... | 17:13 |
jrib | squig: I see. So this is the sort of thing you just want to happen once? | 17:13 |
[4-tea-2] | energyspirit: $3 gives you about 30s of support on this channel. Please set up a premium subscription for your problem. | 17:14 |
jrib | squig: to actually answer your question, you might want to checkout #upstart and the upstart docs (see ubottu). I'm a bit curious about what you are doing though | 17:14 |
squig | jrib yes just on the computers very first inital boot, the script can remove it self after that. right now its actually fine for it to happen every boot but there is no need for it | 17:14 |

prod_ | Still cant make sense of my problem, I am using a laptop with ubuntu 10.4 desktop and have mounted my home directory with NFS share from my ubuntu 10.4 server. My laptop is wifi only and I am guessing as my home directory is a NFS share i cant umount before i log out. My problem is when i shutdown/restart my lappy it doesnt actually shutdown. So far i have worked out that my network manager is shutting down before umountnfs. | 17:24 |
prod_ | Can someone please help me edit my shutdown process to fix this problem, have googled all day but my skills dont seem to be able to pay the bills | 17:24 |
pauru | bc81 i did, but it doesnt work | 17:25 |

prod_ | squig, im not sure, im not very good at linux | 17:27 |
pauru | bc81 i've only installed the updates and the display drivers so far | 17:27 |
[4-tea-2] | prod_: do you think there would be bad effects if you didn't unmount NFS at all? I don't think the server would care. mv /etc/init.d/umountnfs.sh /etc/init.d/umountnfs.sh-disabled ? | 17:28 |
bc81 | pauru: did you reboot yet? try metacity --replace and/or compiz --replace | 17:28 |
[4-tea-2] | prod_: erm. sudo mv ... | 17:28 |
Pumpkin- | Fidelix: d indicates directory, then 421. So rwxr-xr-x is (4+2+1), (4+1), (4+1) = 755 | 17:28 |

[4-tea-2] | prod_: I'm not sure whether it works - and it will only work until the package "initscripts" is updated, but it's worth a shot as a workaround. | 17:30 |
bc81 | pauru: run one of theose commands? | 17:31 |
[4-tea-2] | prod_: I had a view at the scripts, I assume it won't help, the machine will probably just hang in the umountfs script instead. | 17:31 |
prod_ | 4-tea-2: A workaround will do for now and ill save that command for next time its updated/watever | 17:31 |
prod_ | dammit :S | 17:31 |
schnuffle | tiptop2: hmm, I don't know where to go further cause google isn't very responsive | 17:32 |
pauru | bc81, i've tried metacity --replace but it seems like it is not done | 17:32 |
prod_ | any other suggestions? Maybe changing the shutdown order? I have followed a few bug reports and workarounds but im just not skilled enough to understand the more complicated ones | 17:33 |
bc81 | pauru: i dont know, try another theme maybe, see if that helps | 17:33 |
[4-tea-2] | prod_: the better way might be a script in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d | 17:33 |
tiptop2 | schnuffle, bit.ly/euuXUj shows the schematics Pleaser acknowldge if u receive this I was blocked for a while for pasting | 17:34 |

llutz | corgan_: are you using 32 or 64 bit? uname -m | 17:54 |
corgan_ | what do i type before check install | 17:54 |
tiptop2 | schnuffle, how do i load the kernel module and give it the mac address? and before that i just edited /etc/network/interfaces with 01:02:03:04:05:06 and restarted /etc/init.d/networking should i change this to AA:BB:CC:EE (or AA:BB:CC:DD:EE -- DD was missing in what you typd) before goiong to kernel? | 17:54 |
corgan_ | can someone give me some steps? | 17:54 |
llutz | corgan_: i'm just trying to do, if you would answer the questions | 17:54 |
corgan_ | llutz, 32 bit | 17:54 |

JoeyBrennan | PCI-E graphics cards. Are v2 cards backwards compatible with v1 PCI-E motherboards? | 17:55 |
llutz | corgan_: have you read http://ubuntulinux.co.in/blog/ubuntu/wifi-card-ralink-5390-configuration-in-ubuntu-10-10-64-bit/ | 17:56 |
schnuffle | tiptop2: depends on your patience :), /etc/network/interfaces configures your kown network cards. For that the hardware has to be recognized already, so first step is to do that. As soon as this is done, sudo ifconfig will list it, then you can configure it | 17:56 |
sipior | JoeyBrennan: should be, yes | 17:56 |
llutz | corgan_: it shouldn't be different for 32bit | 17:56 |
tiptop2 | schnuffle, will do that one by one | 17:57 |
tiptop2 | schnuffle, is AA:BB:CC:DD:EE ( with DD ) ? | 17:57 |
corgan_ | what does cd mean? | 17:57 |
jrib | corgan_: depends on the context | 17:57 |
sipior | JoeyBrennan: the docs that came with the card should give the authoritative answer. | 17:57 |
llutz | corgan_: cd = change directory. do: "sudo apt-get install build-essential" you'll need it | 17:57 |
bc81 | !info cd | 17:57 |
schnuffle | tiptop2: so the problem is, how to load the kernel module with the correct options. And as I don't have the hardware I can only guess. Your hardware can be used in different setups | 17:57 |

jado | hello, i'm having a problem with my mouse: when i plug it, its red light blinks for a few seconds and then shuts off :( is there a way to fix that? | 17:58 |
sipior | JoeyBrennan: consult the documentation, then. the card *should* be compatible with a V1.1 motherboard, but there are no guarantees. | 17:59 |
tiptop2 | schnuffle, before that I have reverted backto "auto lo; iface lo inet loopback" in /etc/network/interfaces, should i save it ? ie. without the mac address as the file was originally? | 17:59 |

ikonia | adeee: run hardware tests (such as memtest) against your PC check for stability | 19:14 |
ikonia | adeee: also make sure you are using the supported/stable video card kernel modules | 19:14 |
schnuffle | corgan_: sudo updatedb && locate rt5390 | grep .ko | 19:14 |
bc81 | hi mendy | 19:15 |
adeee | how to check via lspci ? | 19:15 |
ikonia | adeee: check what ? | 19:15 |
techbreak | how to convert pdf file into word ? | 19:15 |
adeee | VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) | 19:15 |
ikonia | techbreak: use microsoft word and adobe pdf creator to export it | 19:15 |
adeee | this vga card info | 19:15 |
ikonia | adeee: ok, so that's a supported video card, that's good | 19:16 |
adeee | is this supported ? | 19:16 |
adeee | then why computer gone held? | 19:16 |
techbreak | ikonia, adobe pdf creator ? does that works with ubuntu ? and how do i use microsoft word in ubuntu ? | 19:16 |
techbreak | :o | 19:16 |
ikonia | adeee: run memtest from a livecd on your PC for a good few hours | 19:16 |
ikonia | techbreak: no, it won't work in ubuntu | 19:16 |
techbreak | ikonia, I was asking about ubuntu... m$ i have lots of ideas to do so :D | 19:17 |
adeee | ok ikonia i can do it. but can you tell me if you dont mind what advantages of mem test occures? because i never try it before? | 19:17 |
ikonia | techbreak: well, as MS word is a closed sourced format, and Adobe PDF's are also closed sourced, it's not a great start | 19:17 |
ikonia | adeee: to make sure your machine is stable | 19:17 |
corgan_ | ok schnuffle...i'l send you a pastebin | 19:18 |
adeee | ok thanxs i do. | 19:18 |
ikonia | techbreak: there are plenty of PDF converters in ubuntu, but none to Word | 19:18 |
schnuffle | techbreak: pdftotext to extract the text, openoffice to save a doc document | 19:18 |
ikonia | schnuffle: that won't keep the formatting correct for word | 19:18 |
corgan_ | schnuffle: http://pastebin.com/NmFpFj0k | 19:18 |
techbreak | schnuffle, does that goes with "sudo apt-get install pdftotext ? " | 19:19 |
corgan_ | schnuffle: it was installed am i corrdct? | 19:19 |
techbreak | schnuffle, that doesn't :( where can I find that ? | 19:19 |
schnuffle | techbreak: as ikonia mentioned you'll loose the format | 19:19 |
schnuffle | techbreak: it's part of some package give me a moment | 19:20 |
techbreak | schnuffle, hmm.. i need just the texts.. format i don't care.. | 19:20 |
techbreak | schnuffle, okie :) take your time : | 19:20 |
schnuffle | corgan_: module seems to be installed. try insmod rt5390sta and check with lsmod if it got loaded. | 19:20 |
arran-g_ | hi, anyone know how I can clear cached credentials for a smb/cifs share? | 19:21 |
bc81 | techbreak: if all you need is the text, you can copy + paste into open office | 19:21 |
Jordan_U | techbreak: PDF is such a different concept that it can't really be converted to a document format. | 19:21 |
ikonia | arran-g_: they won't be cached | 19:21 |
Jordan_U | techbreak: At least not preserving formatting. | 19:21 |
techbreak | Jordan_U, hmm | 19:22 |
arran-g_ | ikonia: i have a windows box with shares on it | 19:22 |

arran-g_ | and now I get permission denied | 19:22 |
techbreak | bc81, thats one idea.. but some stuff is not so easy... like tables and all... ( I was stupid to mention just text what i needed ) | 19:22 |
corgan_ | schnuffle: http://pastebin.com/vsWwmgjH | 19:22 |
ikonia | arran-g_: did you click "save password" when you entered it ? | 19:22 |
arran-g_ | no | 19:23 |
jared__ | w | 19:23 |
arran-g_ | there was no initial password on the share until I added one | 19:23 |
bc81 | techbreak: ahh, i see | 19:23 |
ikonia | arran-g_: then if the password is wrong it should prompt you for the new password | 19:23 |
schnuffle | corgan_: sudo insmod rt5390sta | 19:23 |
arran-g_ | ikonia: you'd hope so, its not doing though >.< | 19:24 |
schnuffle | techbreak: it's package xpdf-utils | 19:24 |
ElderDryas | ikonia: I think you were right...messanger.live.com is flakey (I was using messanger.hotmail.com as the server) | 19:24 |
Jordan_U | techbreak: Since I see now that you just need the text, as long as it's not just a PDF with images in it (many are for whatever reason) you should be fine with pdf2text (as others have mentioned). | 19:24 |
corgan_ | got the same thing | 19:24 |
corgan_ | schnuffle: got the same thing | 19:24 |
bc81 | techbreak: have you considered some of the online pdf converters? | 19:24 |
ikonia | arran-g_: see if there is a password in your keyring | 19:24 |

econ | anyone know what to do if a program is still there even though it should have been uninstalled? I am trying to get rid of VMware player so I can install VMware server. When I use sudo apt-get --purge remove vmware it tells me it can't find the package. It doesn't show up in synapitc packet manager either. But it is still in my applications and I can't install VMware server till it's gone. | 19:42 |
bc81 | VCoolio: awesome, now all i need to remember is how to default to running the file, instead of displaying it :) | 19:42 |

BajK | hey there, so I just wanted to refresh my kernel modules since my battery drain is huge now because of the new kernel not loading the module. I tried the tutorial here http://ubuntu-ky.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10101767&postcount=3 but with the new kernel 2.6.35-25-generic-pae (instead of 24) all I get when compiling is "No rule to create Grafik/Mod.. End" | 19:58 |
BajK | when doing make | 19:58 |
ikonia | BajK: why are you compiling anything ? | 19:59 |
BajK | ikonia: because without it my battery will last like 2 hours on my notebook | 19:59 |
BajK | instead of 8? | 19:59 |
ikonia | BajK: which module is it ? | 19:59 |
techbreak | erUSUL, how do I set the executing path then ? | 19:59 |
BajK | ikonia: read the forum post, everything's in it :) | 19:59 |
ikonia | BajK: no, just tell me what module it is | 19:59 |
BajK | a custom one, called timelinex_acpi | 20:00 |

veovis_muaddib | I'm looking around and it looks like you can format HFS+ volumes from Linux, but I'm not seeing any specific information on that. Can anyone help with that, and with turning off journaling once it's made? | 20:00 |
erUSUL | techbreak: you have to configure the default java to be sun's | 20:01 |
erUSUL | techbreak: sudo update-alternatives --config java | 20:01 |
BajK | ikonia: so, now I booted the -24 kernel and this one is loading the module (since it compiled properly) and now my battery life is an estimated 55 minutes and rising instead of 22 like it was before at 29% | 20:01 |
ikonia | BajK: why don't you just move the module from the .24 to the .whatever kernel branch, it's the same base code | 20:01 |

yegitme | ubuntu 10.4 lts ships with aircrack-ng that is vulnerable to remote exploit | 20:28 |
yegitme | the supplied apt patches do not patch the issue | 20:28 |
yegitme | onyl way to fix is to upgrade to 10.10 or install it yourself | 20:28 |
Pici | yegitme: File a bug against the package in launchpad and state that. | 20:28 |
Docfxit | Vitasoy what program can I use to change the permissions? | 20:29 |
yegitme | pls add patches to save us | 20:29 |
mkanyicy | !who | fille12 | 20:29 |

flashdeluxe | hi! Whats the best plugin (firefox) for streaming divX videos in kubuntu maverick? I installed totem, but it doesn`t work :/ | 20:29 |
mkanyicy | Docfxit: do not change smb.conf permissions | 20:29 |
yegitme | well, if you have an email addy, that would be good | 20:29 |
yegitme | your website says to come here and ask abotu features | 20:29 |
fille12 | veovis_muaddib so what do i do, ubuntu works is all good in safe-mode but not in normal mode | 20:29 |
yegitme | *since this is nto a bug* | 20:29 |
erUSUL | yegitme: a remote exploit is obiously a bug | 20:30 |
yegitme | it is, but the bug is patched in your code | 20:30 |
Docfxit | mkanyicy how can I add a file share if I can't write to the conf file? | 20:30 |
yegitme | its missing in older versions (all beit lts) | 20:30 |
guntbert | yegitme: this is in no way a channel to talk to developers, there is #ubuntu-devs | 20:30 |
veovis_muaddib | fille12: Upsidedown panels and window decorations, but contents render normally? Not sure | 20:30 |
yegitme | http://www.ubuntu.com/community/report-problem | 20:31 |
fille12 | veovis_muaddib no the content dosent render normally | 20:31 |
yegitme | site says here is fine | 20:31 |
yegitme | my bad | 20:31 |
veovis_muaddib | fille12: On that picture it does | 20:31 |
mkanyicy | Docfxit: ALT+F2 and type 'gksudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf' | 20:31 |
yegitme | do you have an email address I can send to? | 20:31 |
yegitme | security@ubuntu.com ? | 20:31 |
mkanyicy | Docfxit: did you try that? | 20:31 |
fille12 | veovis_muaddib its not my thread | 20:32 |
veovis_muaddib | fille12: If the contents were normal I would swap to compiz or meticity, whichever you're not using... | 20:32 |
veovis_muaddib | fille12: Ah | 20:32 |
veovis_muaddib | sorry for the misunderstanding. | 20:32 |
fille12 | fille12 but maybe u are right | 20:32 |
guntbert | yegitme: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel | 20:32 |
fille12 | veovis_muaddib got a tutorial for that? | 20:32 |
Jordan_U | yegitme: "Support requests should go to..." does not refer to bug reports. | 20:33 |
veovis_muaddib | fille12: No, sorry. Should be easy to Google, I'd look it up, but I shouldn't even be helping lol :P | 20:33 |
yegitme | I wasnt lookign to report a bug | 20:33 |
yegitme | I came to ask for a contact to report an issue | 20:33 |
yegitme | nobody replied | 20:33 |
yegitme | so i reported it | 20:33 |
veovis_muaddib | fille12: I haven't used Gnome in awhile, look through the top left admin menu if you can | 20:33 |
yegitme | anyway, it's getting political | 20:34 |
fille12 | veovis_muaddib thank u | 20:34 |
yegitme | ill just leave it in the room and do with it as you wish :) | 20:34 |
guntbert | yegitme: "to report an issue" = bug report | 20:34 |
fille12 | veovis_muaddib | 20:36 |
fille12 | veovis_muaddib dont know what i did but i got it right now | 20:36 |
geekbri | what is the difference between .bash_profile and .bashrc? | 20:36 |
maco | geekbri: .bash_profile is only executed on login shells, iirc | 20:37 |
guntbert | geekbri: and .bashrc for non-login shells | 20:38 |
veovis_muaddib | fille12: Good to hear, but it'd be better to know what you did to fix it | 20:38 |
veovis_muaddib | fille12: Oh well | 20:38 |
geekbri | so basically .bashrc goes off everytime a shell is opened where was .bash_profile only does it on actual login? | 20:38 |
maco | geekbri: i think so | 20:39 |
zgr | hello! bug I've reported has been marked as duplicate of another bug, but i can't access that page says no permission. | 20:39 |

zenwryly | I'm running maverick on a xen domU and I'm not getting login on the console. I have a /etc/event.d/hvc0 but no /etc/init/hvc0.conf. When I modify /etc/init/tty1.conf to use hvc0 instead of tty1, I get a login prompt. Shouldn't Maverick be using /etc/event.d instead of /etc/init? Is there some cleanup I should do? | 20:45 |
Docfxit | I get an error saying Unknown job: smbd | 20:45 |
mkanyicy | Docfxit: sudo service smbd restart | 20:45 |
d3vlin | hi all | 20:46 |
d3vlin | my syslog is being filled with messages: pulseaudio[1443]: sap.c: sendmsg() failed: Connection refused | 20:46 |
d3vlin | any clue what's wrong? sound seems to work normal | 20:46 |
Docfxit | mkanyicy I get an error saying unrecognized service | 20:46 |
root_ | slt | 20:47 |
mkanyicy | Docfxit: type "which smbd" in terminal | 20:47 |
tucemiux_live | d3vlin, sounds like you want to take a look at the forums, that looks like a connection problem with purge audio | 20:48 |
Docfxit | mmkanyicy I did that. Nothing displays. I expected a version or something. | 20:48 |
mkanyicy | Docfxit: are you winning? | 20:48 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: That should show you where it is, meaning it's not there | 20:49 |
mkanyicy | Seems as if you don't have samba server installed, Docfxit | 20:49 |
Docfxit | mkanyicy I'm running 10.10 | 20:49 |
mkanyicy | Docfxit: sudo apt-get install samba | 20:50 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: It requires installing. I believe in GNOME if you right click to create a share it installs it automatically, but I haven't touched GNOME in awhile, you should just apt-get it | 20:50 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: Like mkanyicy stated | 20:50 |
dmar198 | Is there a way to modify the audio control such that sound goes straight from max to amplified via the usual sound-increase hardware button (i.e. F9)? | 20:52 |
veovis_muaddib | Okay, I just created an HFS+ partition, and I have no write access. I assume it's from the journaling being on (Odd choice for hfsutils to journal by default) so how could I turn it off with no access to OS X until I go on the trip I want to use the drive for? | 20:52 |
Docfxit | mkanyicy during the install I received an error saying could not resolve 'archive.ubuntu.com' | 20:53 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: You're on the internet with that machine? | 20:53 |
FastPutty | hello, someone may help me out. This is weird, i reiceve in email today under date of 6jan but when icheck in the header it said recieve from XXXXdomain on 14 february | 20:54 |
v4nelle | guys sysv-rc-conf read the apps from /var/lib/update-rc.d? | 20:54 |
FastPutty | does it mean that the guy who sent me the email did a date modification on the header? | 20:54 |
mkanyicy | Docfxit: answer veovis_muaddib 's question, please. | 20:54 |
veovis_muaddib | FastPutty: Your smtp server had the message until you grabbed it I assume? | 20:55 |
mbeierl | FastPutty: it is possible that the sender has the clock set incorrectly on their computer | 20:55 |
veovis_muaddib | FastPutty: If this is a web client there was some fiddling, but if you haven't checked your mail in that long, then.... | 20:55 |
Docfxit | veovis_muaddib I just checked. I'm not on the internet. I guess I have to connect to the internet manually every time I re-boot. | 20:56 |
Docfxit | I am connecting now. | 20:56 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: Interesting. You shouldn't have to. Wired or wireless? If wireless, do you log in without a password? | 20:56 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: * Do you log in to Ubuntu without a password | 20:57 |
Docfxit | vm yes | 20:57 |
Docfxit | vm I am wired. | 20:57 |
Docfxit | VM with a static IP. | 20:58 |
r3d2 | hey you guys.....i just migrated to xubuntu from ubuntu and i noticed a different sound manager...i want to use ubuntus sound manager since it lets me boost the volume up over 100% with the alsa sound driver.....not only that but with ubuntus controls, you can boost your mic to pick up even the most inaudible sounds due to its ability to control what decible range to register | 20:58 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: If you type ve and then hit tab it will autocomplete my nick, the full nick highlights me | 20:58 |

Wallace_ | Networking question: a subnet of 255.255.240.0 is normal, but can I use non sequential bits? i.e. can I create a subnet of 255.255.15.0 or something along similar lines (e.g. 255.255.96.0) ?? | 20:59 |
r3d2 | yep | 20:59 |
maxigas | Jordan_U: here is the output of this mplayer which plays mute: http://paste.ubuntu.com/567111/ | 20:59 |
r3d2 | im sure you can...just not sure how since i havent done it before | 20:59 |
Wallace_ | r3d2, that for me? | 20:59 |
r3d2 | yes wallace_ | 20:59 |
r3d2 | its actually done on most public wifi systems now in order to prevent people from using nmap against other people using the router | 21:00 |
maxigas | Wallace_: i don't see why you couldn't do that. | 21:00 |
dumbo431 | is it sick to love sickness? | 21:00 |
r3d2 | Wallace_ #networking | 21:00 |

r3d2 | they have helped me with networking questions many times | 21:01 |
Wallace_ | r3d2, maxagaz_ : yea I figured as much, it's just that all the docs on the 'net only ever show examples with the bottom bits lol | 21:01 |
maxigas | Wallace_: "tradition" | 21:01 |
r3d2 | Wallace_ you using dhcp configuration file? | 21:01 |
r3d2 | i know of an example | 21:01 |
Jordan_U | Wallace_: With standard subnet masks, no, you cannot. | 21:01 |
r3d2 | ill try find it | 21:01 |
Wallace_ | r3d2, no, I don't used DHCP for most things - I'm setting up openvpn | 21:02 |
Wallace_ | Jordan_U, really? damn, and r3d2 and maxigas filled me with confidence :\ | 21:02 |
guntbert | Wallace_: the netmask has only one purpose and for this purpose the n upper buts must me 1 and the 32-n lower bits must be 0 | 21:02 |
Docfxit | veovis_muaddib I have to go to netowork connections and type in the IP, netmask, gateway and dns | 21:02 |
Docfxit | DNS | 21:02 |
guntbert | *must be | 21:03 |
Jordan_U | Wallace_: There are other masks, like wildcard masks in IOS, which can be used that way, but not subnet masks. | 21:03 |

veovis_muaddib | Hmmm. Sorry, I can't help with that, sounds like the network manager isn't keeping your info. I'm sure someone else can help though | 21:03 |
Wallace_ | damn, so I can't create my subnet of say 10.128.* and 10.129.* in one subnet? | 21:04 |
JetBoyJetGirl | I made a script, moved it into my home/bin directory and attempt to execute it and I'm getting "command not found" any ideas what the problem could be? | 21:04 |
guntbert | Wallace_: please ask in ##networking, but you cannot | 21:04 |
Docfxit | veovis_muaddib I sure would be nice to make that permanent | 21:04 |
Wallace_ | kthx | 21:04 |
veovis_muaddib | JetBoyJetGirl: ~/bin isn't in your path | 21:04 |
splnet | Anyone know how to install ksymoops? Is it in multiverse? | 21:05 |
andycc | JetBoyJetGirl: export PATH='$PATH;~/bin' I think | 21:05 |
JetBoyJetGirl | ahh... ok i gotta add it | 21:05 |
andycc | (not sure about the syntax) | 21:05 |
JetBoyJetGirl | ok sweet thanks guys | 21:05 |
veovis_muaddib | JetBoyJetGirl: Type this out: cd ~/bin, then ./nameOfScript | 21:05 |
maxigas | JetBoyJetGirl: did you make the script executable like so?: chmod u+x yourscript.sh | 21:05 |
Younder | One of the most annoying features of UBUNTU is that it takes5 minutes to go into screen save mode. How to I increase it? (To say 20 minutes) | 21:05 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: Of course! Not sure how though, sorry. | 21:05 |
tucemiux_live | Wallace_, it's like wanting to drive together with your friend but you want to take the highway and he wants to the the side streets o_O | 21:06 |

dmar198 | Is there a way to modify the audio control such that sound goes straight from max to amplified via the usual sound-increase hardware button (i.e. F9)? | 21:06 |
veovis_muaddib | Younder: In the top left there is a menu, go to System > [One of the two options, not sure which] > Screensaver | 21:06 |
maxigas | JetBoyJetGirl, andycc: for adding to path, (one) right syntax is export PATH=$PATH:/what/you/want/to/add:/another/one/:/so/on | 21:06 |
JetBoyJetGirl | nice thanks!!! | 21:07 |
veovis_muaddib | Younder: If it's not there, try System > [One of the two options, not sure which] > Power | 21:07 |
JetBoyJetGirl | :-) | 21:07 |
splnet | Trying to debug a kernel oops, any tools you can recommend? | 21:07 |

veovis_muaddib | k3b_is_failing: I mean, does it ask for your password when you start it | 21:10 |
KM0201 | veovis_muaddib: now why on earth would you run a burning app w/ root? | 21:10 |
k3b_is_failing | ofc not veovis_muaddib | 21:10 |
ePirat | i read that usbvision driver would work but it cant install them | 21:10 |
veovis_muaddib | KM0201: Just wondering | 21:10 |
k3b_is_failing | Why I would I start k3b as root? | 21:10 |

KM0201 | veovis_muaddib: well i understand you're 'just wondering'... but why would you even think that a burning app, needs root? | 21:11 |
levon | hi, my problem to day is that my x.org is jacked. the error i am given failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//radeon.so (the fix) i have to remove / in between drivers and radeon.so but what file do i do this in | 21:11 |
BadHorsie | How do I change the terminal LANG from en_US.UTF-8 to en_US permanently? | 21:11 |
veovis_muaddib | KM0201: Again, I was wondering if it did, not suggesting it might need to | 21:11 |
andycc | levon: no difference IIRC | 21:11 |
k3b_is_failing | k there are some options in k3b | 21:12 |
schnuffle | amx109_: reconfigure the vmware tools | 21:12 |
k3b_is_failing | about permissions | 21:12 |
KM0201 | veovis_muaddib: i guess i'm not asking my question properly, why would you wonder if it did.. k3b does nothing that would require root. | 21:12 |
Elad | I am trying to run a .NET executable from the terminal and keep getting the error: "The following assembly referenced from /home/www/csharp/SQLiteConsoleDemo/SQLiteConsoleDemo/bin/Debug/DAL.dll could not be loaded:" I made sure that the DAL.dll is in the same directory that I am calling it from - any hints on how to troubleshoot this? | 21:12 |
andycc | levon: that additional '/' is ignored | 21:12 |
veovis_muaddib | k3b_is_failing: Did you add yourself to cdrom or were you already in it? | 21:12 |
k3b_is_failing | veovis_muaddib: I was already | 21:12 |
levon | andycc well i cd to that directory and all the files are in there without the extra / | 21:12 |
amx109_ | schnuffle, thank you, i shall try that | 21:12 |
r3d2 | hey you guys..every time i install a program from terminal...toward the end, it says "processing triggers for man-db" i know what that is however, always after that line, theres a line that says "processing triggers for python-support" what is that part? | 21:12 |
k3b_is_failing | veovis_muaddib: I dont have a 'burning' group | 21:13 |
k3b_is_failing | only backup | 21:13 |
veovis_muaddib | KM0201: Because I've seen access problems before where apps were started as root but the devs knew better | 21:13 |
levon | any ideas | 21:13 |
andycc | r3d2: I guess it adds support for some sort of Python bindings? | 21:13 |
minimec | k3b_is_failing: group cdrom? | 21:13 |
k3b_is_failing | yes minimec .. | 21:13 |
tucemiux_live | k3b_is_failing, why dont you try brasero instead? | 21:13 |
veovis_muaddib | k3b_is_failing: I'm not sure, but I think cdrom includes burn access | 21:13 |
otay | Hello. Has anybody ever seen "E: Broken packages"? I'm mostly interested to find out how commonly this problem occurs. This is the second time it's happened to me in about three months. | 21:14 |
k3b_is_failing | tucemiux_live: because brasero cant open device and then I cant burn the image, im trying to make a copy of a DVD | 21:14 |
andycc | otay: yes, I've seen that sometimes. I think you can trigger it by running 'apt-get install kde'... | 21:14 |
tucemiux_live | otay, i've seen this a few times, it has to do with corruption on your hard drive, I had to fix apt-get or dpkg, you usually get an error telling you how to fix it | 21:14 |
minimec | k3b_is_failing: Check gorup CDROM. I think that does the trick... | 21:15 |
r3d2 | andycc not sure | 21:15 |
r3d2 | thats why im asking | 21:15 |
tucemiux_live | k3b_is_failing, youre sure you have a DVD burner? | 21:15 |
k3b_is_failing | ofc lol.. | 21:15 |
k3b_is_failing | I have burned DVDs before. | 21:15 |
levon | andycc : do you know whats going on then with the system. | 21:15 |
brandon420 | so have i | 21:15 |
jrib | otay: happens when people mix repos or use unofficial packages | 21:16 |
jrib | otay: (usually) | 21:16 |
otay | Thank you for answering guys. It's odd the package manager doesn't do a checksum before installing. I don't think a broken package should ever get broken | 21:16 |
otay | ahh | 21:16 |
tucemiux_live | k3b_is_failing, can you at least read CD/DVD's ?? Could it be possible your DVD rom is going bad? | 21:16 |
otay | hmm | 21:16 |
k3b_is_failing | minimec: already checked. im gonna try that option in k3b "use burning grouP" and change it to cdrom group.- | 21:16 |
otay | or maybe from uninstalling packages | 21:16 |
jrib | otay: that's not usually what causes broken packages | 21:16 |
andycc | levon: I'm assuming it's some kind of problem with the radeon driver. | 21:16 |
maxigas | Wallace_: sorry for wrong info. :( | 21:17 |

minimec | k3b_is_failing: What about that? | 21:17 |
Docfxit | I did get one share working fine. The other I can't get working. I'm trying to share the first hard drive. I'm booted into a thumb drive. What would I use for the path for the first hard drive? | 21:17 |
otay | jrib do you think it could happen from removing packages ? | 21:17 |
jrib | otay: no | 21:17 |
k3b_is_failing | minimec: doesnt solve. | 21:17 |
jrib | otay: well, depends on how you remove them. | 21:17 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: The hard drive you installed to is / | 21:17 |
k3b_is_failing | minimec: do u have k3b installed? | 21:17 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: You don't need to share the whole hard drive though | 21:18 |
veovis_muaddib | Better practice to pick and choose | 21:18 |
minimec | k3b_is_failing: nope. I am on e17 +gtk. | 21:18 |
levon | im booting the system now, when i get to gdm i get this error in a gui, ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode the following error was encountered you may need to update your configuraton to solve this. (EE) failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//radeon_drv.so | 21:18 |
k3b_is_failing | btw k3b worked before with oldest versions.. | 21:18 |
Docfxit | veovis_muaddib that's correct that would be the thumb drive. I'm not trying to share that. I'd like to share the hard drive on the system. | 21:18 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: If you know how to use symbolic links then you can make one folder with links to everywhere you wish to share | 21:18 |
levon | im going to reboot into cli | 21:18 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: | 21:18 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: Sorry for the blank. Is it mounted? If so it's usually in /media/LABEL | 21:19 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: If not you'll have to make sure it's mounted | 21:19 |
k3b_is_failing | I found this Q: Writing fails with the following cdrecord message over and over again: Error trying to open /dev/XXX exclusively... | 21:19 |
k3b_is_failing | A: You are using a patched cdrecord version which tries to open the device exclusively which fails because your are probably also using automounting. | 21:19 |
k3b_is_failing | The solutions are to disable automounting altogether (this is the recommended solution as automounting can cause other more serious problems with CD/DVD writing) or to install a non-patched cdrecord version. | 21:19 |
FloodBot3 | k3b_is_failing: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 21:19 |

otay | jrib I didn't mix repos install anything oustside of official repos.. Well, actually I installed java from Sun. I can't imagine that could break anything though. | 21:20 |
levon | its doing a fsck at 80% | 21:21 |
djindy | I'm trying to recover a CompactFlash card. The reader is being detected, but nothing seems to detect the card itself that I can find (Disk Utility, GParted, etc). What is the best way to see if the card can be detected at all so I can do a low level copy? | 21:22 |
iku-iku | hellp | 21:22 |
* otay tries to fix it | 21:22 | |
iku-iku | hello* | 21:22 |
iku-iku | i'm looking for help =D | 21:22 |
searayman | can anyoen give me a c channel i can get c programing help in? | 21:22 |
tucemiux_live | !help | iku-iku | 21:22 |
ubottu | iku-iku: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 21:23 |
tucemiux_live | searayman, #ubuntu-offtopic | 21:23 |
iku-iku | ok i'm sorry >.> | 21:23 |
searayman | tucemiux_live: thanks buddy | 21:23 |
Odaym | hello | 21:23 |
Jordan_U | djindy: If it is being recognized as a drive it should show up in /proc/partitions. | 21:23 |
Odaym | i am at the partitioning menu now, and i have sda1 (unknown) 1 MB, sda2 (ntfs) 1.6 GB, sda3 (ntfs) 104 MB, sda4 (ntfs 107 GB has windows on it) and free space (141 GB).. i have them down in the list all available with their details but the free space is labeled "unusable" | 21:23 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, that's because you can only have 4 primary partitions | 21:24 |
Odaym | i see | 21:24 |
Odaym | and the above are 4? | 21:24 |
amx109_ | schnuffle, reinstalling vmware tools did nothing im afraid. do you have any other suggestions ? | 21:24 |
Odaym | im sorry if i am not aware of my own configuration though | 21:24 |
Docfxit | veovis_muaddib I think that worked. It's asking for a user name and password. Would that be a username in Ubuntu or for the windows drive? | 21:24 |
realubot | How is Ubuntu Netbook Edition compared to Xandros OS on EeePC 900? Will it be faster, slower or what? | 21:24 |
Odaym | oh right, they're 4 | 21:24 |
iku-iku | i'm trying to install ubuntu on my laptop (toshiba tecra S5) and followed the instructions on ubuntu's website (http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download) but i'm stuck in step 9 i cannot click on 'forward' the case remains grey | 21:24 |
tucemiux_live | sda1, sda2, sda3, sda4 --- you have to delete one and create a primary partition, notice how you are screwed by sda1(1MB) | 21:25 |
Odaym | aha | 21:25 |
levon | andycc: basically its not finding the driver at all | 21:25 |
Odaym | but it doesnt contain anything yea? | 21:25 |
Odaym | it's labeled dynamic data | 21:25 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, what type of machine do you have?? OS? | 21:25 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: Sorry, was not paying attention. For the samba share, it should be for Ubuntu | 21:25 |
Odaym | Windows 7 | 21:25 |
Odaym | wanting to install Ubuntu as dual | 21:25 |
Jordan_U | iku-iku: Your username can't have capital letters. | 21:25 |
tucemiux_live | yup yup | 21:25 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, can you reinstall windows 7? | 21:25 |
iku-iku | oh ok | 21:26 |
schnuffle | amx109_: you run the tool ./vmware-config-tools.s? | 21:26 |
Odaym | no | 21:26 |
Docfxit | veovis_muaddib and for the windows share? | 21:26 |
k3b_is_failing | How can I edit cdrom's autorun settings | 21:26 |
iku-iku | thats stupid >.> | 21:26 |
kindari | Anyone know if its possible to let Synergy continue working even when ubuntu is locked? ubuntu is the synergy server. | 21:26 |
Odaym | i want to keep everything, just put on the side Ubuntu | 21:26 |
maxagaz_ | how to start any application in maximized window mode ? | 21:26 |
iku-iku | thanks a lot ordan_U | 21:26 |
Odaym | very precious data man :\ | 21:26 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: Ah, it'd be the Windows password if being shared from Windows | 21:26 |
Fuchs | maxagaz_: by using a window manager allowing rules, or devilspie | 21:26 |
iku-iku | thanks a lot Jordan_U * | 21:26 |
Jordan_U | iku-iku: You're welcome. | 21:26 |
amx109_ | schnuffle, yeah, the vmware script asked me if i wanted to, and ran it for me | 21:26 |
uplinked | hi, my webcam works as a video device (in Cheese and Skype), but doesn't show up as an audio input. Googling for my model (toshiba satellite a665d) doesn't turn up much help, can someone help me figure out where to start? | 21:27 |
maxagaz_ | Fuchs, I use gnome already | 21:27 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, your problem is you need to create an extended partition if you want ubuntu on its own partition or use wubi inside windows 7 | 21:27 |
Fuchs | maxagaz_: some applications have a parameter for this as well, look in application --help or man application. The windowmanager / devilspie solution works in general, though. Even for applications not supporting this natively | 21:27 |
Docfxit | veovis_muaddib I don't have a user created in Ubuntu. Do I need to create one? | 21:27 |
Odaym | hmm | 21:27 |
veovis_muaddib | uplinked: I doubt the webcam is the mic. It's usually separate | 21:27 |
Odaym | ok and at the partition table i can delete them and do all this? | 21:27 |
Fuchs | maxagaz_: gnome doesn't have a window manager allowing rules. In fact, it's window manager can do almost nothing. You have to use devilspie, then | 21:27 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: If you're using Ubuntu you have a user, it's created on install | 21:27 |
Odaym | i just delete the 1mb thing, and the Free Space becomes usable? | 21:27 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: And the LiveUSB has a user | 21:27 |
maxagaz_ | Fuchs, emacs doesn't seem to have it | 21:28 |
uplinked | veovis_muaddib: thanks, so how do i go about finding a missing audio device? | 21:28 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, you just mentioned your data is precious, I would rather do it manually then -- I wouldnt delete partitions, just back up my data -- then reinstall windows 7 | 21:28 |
maxagaz_ | Fuchs, I was looking for an alternative to devilspie | 21:28 |
azizLIGHTS | how do i make ls show the dirs first and the .files after that and then the regular files after that | 21:28 |
schnuffle | amx109_: no further idea | 21:28 |
veovis_muaddib | uplinked: Crap, um..... lspci | grep audio perhaps? | 21:28 |
amx109_ | schnuffle, thanks for the help | 21:28 |
djindy | Jordan_U: thanks, it does not seem to be showing up in /proc/partitions, only partitions on my internal hard drive are. Does this mean I'm probably out of luck with this card? | 21:28 |
Fuchs | maxagaz_: using a different window manager with rules | 21:29 |
kyle_ | So i have a CD and I want to make an ISO.. How do? | 21:29 |
Fuchs | maxagaz_: such as compiz, kwin, fluxbox, openbox, just to name a few. | 21:29 |
Odaym | listen tucemiux_live, if i were say to backup everything, reinstall windows 7, how would the configuration inside be like? | 21:29 |
blag | how do i list udev devices? | 21:29 |
Odaym | i would create a C and D | 21:29 |
Docfxit | veovis_muaddib Is it the user called Live session user? | 21:29 |
Fuchs | You can use most of them with gnome as well, even though in some cases this doesn't make much sense | 21:29 |
Odaym | and leave the free space | 21:29 |
veovis_muaddib | Fuchs: maxagaz_ Awesome as well | 21:29 |
kyle_ | ah, forget it.. got it. ;) | 21:29 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: That's the Full name, usernames can't be that though, no spaces and no caps | 21:29 |
Fuchs | blag: udevadm has some query options | 21:30 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: Perhaps $ cat /etc/passwd and see if anything looks right? | 21:30 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, it all depends on how you install, you still havent told me what type of machine you have, but with windows 7 using restore CD some funky things happen, usually win7 has 2 partitions but a restore utility creats its own, you have to figure out what partition you can delete to create an extended partition | 21:30 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: I'd bet user is the username, or live | 21:31 |
azizLIGHTS | so anyone know ls | 21:31 |
Odaym | hmm | 21:31 |
Odaym | what do you mean what machine | 21:31 |
veovis_muaddib | azizLIGHTS: Yeah, I've used it once or twice :P | 21:31 |
Odaym | its a 32-bit | 21:31 |
azizLIGHTS | veovis_muaddib: so how do i make ls show the dirs first and the .files after that and then the regular files after that | 21:31 |
veovis_muaddib | azizLIGHTS: I'm not sure if you can do that with ls alone, I'd bet you'd need to sort the input with something else | 21:32 |
uplinked | veovis_muaddib: `lspci | grep Audio` shows two devices- intel HDA and Radeon HDMI, but neither have my webcam in them (according to alsamixer) | 21:32 |
azizLIGHTS | i can do the dirs first part with --group-directories-first | 21:32 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, OK well Dell netbooks with XP come with an extra partition to use with the restore utility -- you can delete that one. In your case, the trick is to find what partition you can delete so you can create an extended partition, | 21:32 |
azizLIGHTS | but what about the .files | 21:32 |
azizLIGHTS | ls --group-directories-first | 21:33 |
Docfxit | veovis_muaddib When I put $ cat /etc/passwd into terminal I get $: command not found | 21:33 |
Abinadi | can someone tell me how to make the grub 2 splash go back to default settings, or change the plymouth theme? | 21:33 |
azizLIGHTS | but what about grouping .files first, because | 21:33 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: Sorry, the $ means | 21:33 |
veovis_muaddib | ""as a normal user" | 21:33 |
Odaym | its a toshiba Satellite Pro | 21:33 |
Odaym | A300-1NT | 21:33 |
istok | Docfxit, sudo cat /etc/passwd | 21:34 |
uplinked | Docfxit: omit the $ | 21:34 |
yotux | have topshiba laptop that will not load Xorg | 21:34 |
madjoe | Seveas: ping | 21:34 |
yotux | system just freezes on boot 10.04.1 | 21:34 |
veovis_muaddib | uplinked: hmm..... I'm stumped then, the HDA is your motherboard and the Radeon is your graphics card.... | 21:34 |
Docfxit | veovis_muaddib When I put cat /etc/passwd I get cat: /ect/passwd: no such file or directory | 21:34 |
ElderDryas | tucemiux_live / Odaym : using System>Admin>Disk Utility it will show up as (IIRC) DellUtilities | 21:34 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, that is what you have to figure out -- what partition you can delete, basically first back up your data - then delete a partition you believe you dont need , reboot to see if windows 7 still works, then create an extended partition and allocate all free space on it | 21:34 |
veovis_muaddib | Docfxit: /etc, not /ect | 21:34 |
Odaym | ok | 21:35 |
Odaym | i will see | 21:35 |
makoto-sf | 'sup. Ive just been clearing out my hdd to gain some space, and I've noticed that there is two of my home folder. One under /home/.ecryptfs/ and one under /home/username/ - is the one under username a "virtual" one, a mountpoint? | 21:35 |
tucemiux_live | ElderDryas, Odaym has a toshiba satellite o_O | 21:35 |

uplinked | thanks! | 21:36 |
ElderDryas | tucemiux_live: my bad...I came back from a break ans assumed your note on " Dell netbooks " was in reference about his system...sorry | 21:36 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, I threw him off using an example, I kept asking but you replied too late, that's why it's important to mention the hardware you have, it's not the same on all machines and then some people might be experienced with the actual hardware that you have, all I have is Dell | 21:36 |
veovis_muaddib | uplinked: Try the Intel audio one then, that should be it. It doesn't matter if it's for the webcam or not, if there's a mic it's not important where it is | 21:36 |
Odaym | yep of course | 21:37 |
Odaym | and the 1.4 GB, the one that was labeled sda2 above when i mentioned the question | 21:37 |
Odaym | and it says (Recovery Partition) | 21:37 |

tucemiux_live | Odaym, you **might** be able to delete the partition but dont take my word for it -- back up your data first! | 21:37 |
Odaym | ok ok | 21:38 |
veovis_muaddib | azizLIGHTS: Yeah, try the alias one first. | 21:38 |
Odaym | and one more thing | 21:38 |
pozic | I.e. the stuff which gdm prints and any configuration file that might depend on this name? | 21:38 |

ian| | Hi! | 21:39 |
azizLIGHTS | and so yes lol i did | 21:39 |
azizLIGHTS | if i know that | 21:39 |
Odaym | but | 21:39 |
LORBRITO | so,, can i install ubunto on a netbook with a usb of 1 giga? | 21:39 |
mthorn | I'm trying to format a 3tb external hd on ubuntu, and it's looking like it's going to take 10 hours. This seems REALLY long to me, given that I can do a complete format/install in less than 30 minutes. Is there a better way to format a drive than mke2fs -t ext3 /dev/sdd1? | 21:39 |
Odaym | how will i boot it if it's inside windows? | 21:39 |
Odaym | yea i know the VB thing, but partition on windows to install ubuntu on? | 21:39 |
Odaym | how will i be able to boot it, i'd have already been inside windows by that time | 21:40 |
makoto-sf | Ive just been clearing out my hdd to gain some space, and I've noticed that there is two of my home folder. One under /home/.ecryptfs/ and one under /home/username/ - is the one under username a "virtual" one, a mountpoint? | 21:40 |
veovis_muaddib | !wubi Odaym | 21:40 |
tucemiux_live | LORBRITO, you can try, sure 1 GB is supposed to be the minimum | 21:40 |

ubottu | Odaym, please see my private message | 21:40 |
azizLIGHTS | veovis_muaddib: so just alias ls='LC_COLLATE=C ls -F --color=auto' and then open new bash to check? | 21:40 |
KM0201 | Odaym: i believe the person earlier was talking about Wubi... it's a bad idea, unless youre just dying to brick your system... set up a proper dual boot machine | 21:40 |
ian| | hi! I need some help with analysing a core dump of an inofficial (ppa) packet. I installed the -dbg packet, but how do i tell gdb to find the symbols in the /usr/lib/debug path? | 21:40 |
ElderDryas | LORBRITO: you mean ubuntu on a HHD FROM a 1 gig USB stick? | 21:40 |
veovis_muaddib | azizLIGHTS: No, don't put it in a file, run the alias command in the terminal and check in that same terminal | 21:41 |
LORBRITO | o can i install just the grup and install ubuntu from network? like opensuse does,, | 21:41 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, running ubuntu inside windows means exactly that, you boot up windows and then you run ubuntu -- what question do you have about that? | 21:41 |
Odaym | how? | 21:41 |
Abinadi | yeah, wubi almost ate my Windows 7 installation | 21:41 |
LORBRITO | yes, my netbook has 50 gigas and no cd and i have only a usb of 1 giga | 21:41 |
azizLIGHTS | veovis_muaddib: how do u do that.. | 21:41 |
Odaym | the partition with ubuntu on it is accessible and you see only the files | 21:41 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, you know how to open internet explorer in windows? | 21:41 |
KM0201 | Abinadi: whoever came up w/ Wubi should be tarred and feathered | 21:41 |
Odaym | yea | 21:41 |
azizLIGHTS | veovis_muaddib: just type "alias ls='LC_COLLATE=C ls -F --color=auto'" and press enter? wont it become permanent | 21:41 |

azizLIGHTS | ok | 21:42 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, same concept, instead of IE you open up wubi -- or if you use virtualbox, youll fireup virtualbox and then run ubuntu, I highly recommend virtualbox first so you can get a good taste of ubuntu inside windows | 21:42 |
Odaym | i know, this is what i'm telling the guy | 21:42 |
ElderDryas | LORBRITO: yes you can (I did it yesterday)...SYSTEM>STARTUP DISK CREATER | 21:42 |
veovis_muaddib | azizLIGHTS: aliases only work for the session they're created in. Adding them to .bash_aliases or whatever just means they'll be created every session | 21:42 |
Odaym | i'm asking for someone else | 21:42 |
Odaym | VB is the way to go before fully changing | 21:42 |
makoto-sf | 'sup. Ive just been clearing out my hdd to gain some space, and I've noticed that there is two of my home folder. One under /home/.ecryptfs/ and one under /home/username/ - is the one under username a "virtual" one, a mountpoint? | 21:43 |
Odaym | ok let me see what to do | 21:43 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, yup yup | 21:43 |
ikonia | Odaym: what ? | 21:43 |
Odaym | what ikonia | 21:43 |
LORBRITO | well, i dont have any linux installed just a windows 7 machine and a mac os | 21:43 |
tucemiux_live | he said mac LoL | 21:43 |
ElderDryas | LORBRITO: grab a copy of the LIVECD, you can use that | 21:43 |
ikonia | tucemiux_live: why is that funny ? | 21:43 |
azizLIGHTS | veovis_muaddib: YES TY it worked | 21:44 |
tucemiux_live | ikonia we can discuss that in #ubuntu-offtopic | 21:44 |
Abinadi | Odaym, I worked with VirtualBox extensively before I tried to make real partions and install Maverick to them. A dual boot system is definitely the way to go, but experiment in a VB first. | 21:44 |
veovis_muaddib | tucemiux_live: I use mac windows and linux almost everyday (Until recently) and I love all but windows. What's funny about mac? | 21:44 |
cryptodira | does anyone have the solution to keeping the backlight portion of the KeyBoard operational beyond POST... amd/64 10.04 | 21:44 |
ElderDryas | LORBRITO: but if you can burn the cd, you can install from that without having to use the USB stick | 21:44 |
Odaym | yea yea | 21:44 |
veovis_muaddib | azizLIGHTS: Awesome. Now put that in ~/.bash_aliases | 21:44 |

LORBRITO | but my netbook has no cd | 21:44 |
Odaym | back then that is | 21:44 |
azizLIGHTS | veovis_muaddib: thx dude | 21:44 |

makoto-sf | lostintime: idunno :| | 21:49 |
Docfxit | Thank you all for the help. | 21:49 |
lostintime | makoto-sf: I asked two questions :| | 21:49 |
BigMao | lostintime, that worked, but for some reason I still don't have permissions in my screen session (even if I close and reopen the tabs). Do I need to lose the screen session? (It's not such a big deal if I do) | 21:49 |
lostintime | BigMao: yes | 21:50 |
=== bruno is now known as Guest59983 | ||
BigMao | lostintime, ok. :) I terminated the screen session. Thank you for the help | 21:50 |
makoto-sf | lostintime: /home/makoto has my stuff in, and /home/.ecryptfs shows some stuff, looks like it could be my encrypted stuff | 21:50 |
makoto-sf | does this mean that the "encrypted" information is actually being written to disc? | 21:50 |
tensorpudding | you want the encrypted part to be written to disk | 21:51 |
Abinadi | can someone tell me if there is a cli on mount that will tell me what partitions there are. For some reason I'm not seeing a 250 GB partition that I *know* is present. | 21:52 |
veovis_muaddib | Abinadi: You mean you hope is present :P | 21:52 |
ikonia | Abinadi: do "sudo fdisk -l" that will list the partitions that the OS can see | 21:52 |
xerebz | hello i've been given a bug patch that consists of a uimage files and a modules.tar.gz how can i apply this patch? | 21:52 |
veovis_muaddib | Abinadi: fdisk -l is what you want | 21:52 |
ikonia | veovis_muaddib: he will need to use sudo | 21:52 |
Abinadi | veovis_muaddib, no, I know it's there because when I'm in win 7, I can see it. | 21:52 |
lostintime | makoto-sf: could be | 21:52 |
ElTimo | is there any way to run chkdsk from ubuntu? i installed using wubi and now whenever i try to boot win7 i get a bluescreen that says UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME, but ubuntu boots just fine | 21:53 |
makoto-sf | hmm. | 21:53 |
veovis_muaddib | ikonia: Sorry, I often forget to mention things like that. I knew it and wrongly assumed that it was common knowledge | 21:53 |
tucemiux_live | Abinadi, usually sudo df -h gives me all the info I need | 21:53 |
ikonia | veovis_muaddib: it's very common (myself included) to forget | 21:53 |
ikonia | tucemiux_live: no, that will only show mounted partitions | 21:53 |
Abinadi | veovis_muaddib, fdisk -l gives nothing. OH ok, I'll try that. | 21:54 |
ikonia | Abinadi: don't forget sudo, "sudo fdisk -l" | 21:54 |
veovis_muaddib | Abinadi: Yeah, listen to ikonia | 21:54 |
tucemiux_live | ElTimo, use the windows CD, Im in the process of trying to figure that one out using a USB persistent install but dont know what utilities will help me do that, using the windows CD is the safest way to go though | 21:54 |
tucemiux_live | ikonia, what about sudo blkid | 21:55 |

veovis_muaddib | Odaym: Are you specifying a user? | 21:55 |
veovis_muaddib | kk | 21:55 |
tucemiux_live | Odaym, maybe you have caplocks on? You can also ssh -v | 21:55 |
Odaym | yes of course | 21:55 |
excelsior | Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I have the Xine plugin in Firefox, and it doesn't have any controls. I just autoplays whatever .wmv file, no pause, rewind, or anything. Any thoughts? | 21:55 |
Odaym | ok i will try | 21:55 |
Odaym | but tell me more if's | 21:55 |
makoto-sf | hmm. im going th shut the laptop down, and do some investigations to see if ubuntu's default encryption is actually storing unencrypted files on disc | 21:56 |
Odaym | nope, still with the V directive not working | 21:56 |
istok | Odaym, you may even need to utilize the -l switch, to connect the proper user account | 21:56 |

ikonia | Odaym: ssh -v will work | 21:57 |
Odaym | it didn't | 21:57 |
Odaym | still password wrong | 21:57 |
Odaym | and it does this sometimes | 21:57 |
Odaym | no idea why | 21:57 |

Abinadi | veovis_muaddib, this is what I'm getting and I can't make heads or tails of it except that there should be three NTFS partitions (one is the boot partition for windows 7) | 21:59 |
Odaym | ikonia, http://pastebin.com/NpnBAkMk | 22:00 |
veovis_muaddib | Abinadi: IIRC the system partition for Windows 7 is FAT | 22:00 |

Odaym | i was just SSHing to it at home | 22:02 |
Odaym | and it was fine | 22:02 |
Odaym | i am on a wireless connection here outside my house | 22:02 |
Abinadi | veovis_muaddib, the windows partition is sda1 I believe | 22:02 |
veovis_muaddib | Abinadi: How big is the drive you're missing a partition on, so I know which one to look at? This is showing a 640GB, a 1TB, and a 16GB | 22:02 |
lostintime | mtkorb: what strange error? | 22:02 |
ikonia | Odaym: are you entering the password for the user account, or the ssh key | 22:02 |
Odaym | tried both | 22:03 |
Odaym | for the user account and then for the public key which i've set to space | 22:03 |

mtkorb | hunterm, lostintime: It's short. It's just printing something like "[ 1264.031586] MASQUERADE: lo ate my IP address" repeatedly (and the number increases). I haven't had much luck finding the configuration that's causing this, so I'd like to find the process that's printing it. | 22:03 |
ikonia | Odaym: when it prompts you for a password hit enter, it will ask you again, 3 times, hit enter each time, does the prompt change | 22:03 |
lostintime | password as space... excellent | 22:03 |
veovis_muaddib | Odaym: Public key is going to be random and large, it's not a password | 22:03 |

Odaym | i have Ubuntu on the server | 22:04 |
veovis_muaddib | Odaym: And it dawns on me that you might mean the password to encrypt the private key | 22:04 |
lostintime | mtkorb: this gets printed to a new terminal? | 22:04 |
ikonia | Odaym: as I recall that's a permissions problem on the key files on the server | 22:04 |
Abinadi | veovis_muaddib, ok, the boot drive for windows is the 640 gb partition. the 1tb drive has one partition on it that is a boot partition for maverick and there is a 50 gb partition on the 640 GB drive for another installation of Maverick | 22:04 |
Odaym | on the server..i have Firestarter rules for incoming connections to allow only my pc (through its static ip) | 22:05 |
Odaym | so i guess when it receives the public ip of this computer... | 22:05 |
ikonia | Odaym: I don't think it's a firewall issue as it makes the connection fine | 22:05 |
Odaym | but no, im getting access, its just the password that is failing | 22:05 |
mtkorb | lostintime: I think it's getting printed to stderr. | 22:05 |
veovis_muaddib | Abinadi: And I missed the 500GB as well... None look like they're missing anything, they end on the right cylinders and there are no missing sections | 22:06 |
ikonia | Odaym: the roaming error is the problem | 22:06 |
Abinadi | veovis_muaddib, the 16 GB drive is just a data (dropbox) usb stick, | 22:06 |

cryptodira | Logan_WP, D660A amd/64 | 22:26 |
trancegeek | cryptodira, that issue isn't going to be solved man, it's like my touchpad on my asus laptop, it has built in media keys in the touch pad that light up when you hit the right spot, and i never got that working with linux | 22:26 |

Abinadi | _gohan_, no, I haven't because i can't tell what I need to mount. | 22:32 |

ElderDryas | pmp6nl: not even close to a sysadmin, but if you can't open the log files, I still check logrotate to make sure it is functioning the way you want (i.e. archives old logs). At least that would eleminate that as a suspect | 22:58 |

Is there anything else I could try except rebooting? | 23:02 |
Jordan_U | Abinadi: From the terminal you can use "less /var/log/foo/bar.log" to view a log file and "sudo rm /var/log/foo/bar.log" to remove it, or "xz /var/log/foo/bar.log" to archive it in xz format. There are also GUI log viewers and managers, but I'm not familiar with them. | 23:04 |

garnold | (Because there are a couple packages from there I need but there's enough dependencies that I don't want to install locally) | 23:23 |
frino | iceroot_: I used the official documentation for installing ubuntu on a macbook air (dont know the link anymore) | 23:23 |
iceroot_ | garnold: yes, apt-pinning is working on ubuntu too | 23:23 |
garnold | (....but not so many that they will kill the system, the packages run fine on my debian at work) | 23:23 |
itaylor57 | manfredrasta: the link I gave before shows how to point to sun once you have it installed | 23:23 |
iceroot_ | frino: i mean the link ubottu gave you about creating a bootable usb stick for installing ubuntu | 23:23 |
garnold | iceroo_: so I just add the natty repository and pin it lowest, and then explicitly import a package from there? | 23:24 |
iceroot_ | garnold: correct | 23:24 |
JDogg420 | hello i installed the nvidia driver manually on xubuntu but it dont show up as activated ?? | 23:24 |
manfredrasta | itaylor57, so... you dont want me to uninstall the opend JDK? :) | 23:24 |
iceroot_ | garnold: but mixing repos/packages is not a suppored way | 23:24 |
itaylor57 | manfredrasta: I normally manage my s/w via synaptic gui so I m not so great with command line yet | 23:24 |
garnold | iceroot_: I'm guessing I need to add the 3 repos: main, universe and multiverse to get good package coverage? I'm asking because I simply added main and it didn't seem to make a difference. | 23:24 |
garnold | iceroot_: is there a 'better' way to get these newer package versions? | 23:25 |
manfredrasta | itaylor57, what is s/w? | 23:25 |
itaylor57 | manfredrasta: It doesn't hurt to have both, you can switch | 23:25 |
iceroot_ | !backports | garnold | 23:25 |
ubottu | garnold: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 23:25 |
itaylor57 | manfredrasta: s/w software | 23:25 |
ExplodingPiglets | I have to take a dump brb | 23:25 |
ExplodingPiglets | er sorry | 23:25 |
ExplodingPiglets | I thought this was the inportb tab | 23:25 |
iceroot_ | garnold: normally you use the backport-repo there a build packages from never versions which are fitting dependencies | 23:25 |
MC8 | Right, new question. I installed Debian on a partition, and it's overwritten the ubuntu grub with its own branded version. How do I get the ubuntu one back (that was slightly less painful to look at?) | 23:26 |
manfredrasta | itaylor57, ok. Thank you | 23:26 |
lexvegas | anyone know how to speed up WIFI reconnect speed after resuming from standby? it takes upwards of 30 seconds for me | 23:26 |
itaylor57 | manfredrasta: good luck | 23:26 |
JDogg420 | i installed xubuntu last night but my windows vista doesnt show up in the grub? | 23:26 |
iceroot_ | MC8: boot an ubuntu-live-system and use grub-install /dev/sdX (where sdX is your drive) | 23:26 |
garnold | ubottu: I have looked in backports, but the package in question: python-scikits-learn is at the version I need in natty's repo (1.5) but not in the other repos, yet doesn't seem to pose any problems with deps on my debian testing machine | 23:26 |
ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:26 |
MC8 | oh, just use the install cd? | 23:27 |
=== Leif is now known as Leifi | ||
manfredrasta | itaylor57, just 1 more question: how do i check if I have Tomcat installed? I cant remember... | 23:27 |
iceroot_ | MC8: or boot into your ubuntu | 23:27 |
Leifi | yo | 23:27 |
iceroot_ | MC8: dpkg -l *tomcat* | 23:27 |
iceroot_ | MC8: ii means installed | 23:27 |
JDogg420 | i installed xubuntu last night but my windows vista doesnt show up in the grub? | 23:27 |
iceroot_ | MC8: sorry wrong nick | 23:27 |
Logan_WP | !xubuntu | JDogg420 | 23:27 |
ubottu | JDogg420: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels | 23:27 |
itaylor57 | iceroot_: thanks you beat me to it :>) | 23:27 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: dpkg -l *tomcat* ii means installed | 23:27 |
* MC8 hurriedly closes his terminal | 23:27 | |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, should i write dpkg -l *tomcat* on a terminal? | 23:28 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: correct | 23:28 |
Abinadi | can anyone tell me how to delete a log file using System >> Administration>> log file viewer?? Or do I have to do something at the CLI? | 23:28 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, no packages corresponding to *tomcat* | 23:29 |
boxbeatsy | hi, i was in vim and i hit ctrl+z and now it seems like i zombied my process. is tehre any way to get it back? | 23:29 |
iceroot_ | boxbeatsy: type "fg" on terminal | 23:29 |
Leifi | I've got problems with X11 forwarding from windows 7 to ubuntu, putty complains about wrong authentication protocol. I get this error at login (which probably isn't good): "/usr/bin/xauth: /home/user/.Xauthority NOT writable", any ideas what I could do to fix this? | 23:29 |
Wallace_ | Abinadi, iI can't see an option there, probably have to delete it manually ... BUT, if your system is set up correctly, they should rotate automatically and old ones should be deleted | 23:29 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, so dpkg -l looks for packages like the string you write? | 23:29 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: yes | 23:29 |
boxbeatsy | iceroot_: awesome! thanks :) | 23:29 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, thanks | 23:29 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, is it case sensitive? | 23:30 |
iceroot_ | boxbeatsy: ctrl +z is pausing a program, fg means foreground, bg means background | 23:30 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: imo yes, the package is tomcat | 23:30 |
boxbeatsy | iceroot_: ah ok gotcha | 23:30 |
Abinadi | Wallace_, I don't see a delete command either, but I see two day old logs. And there are some of the logs that are quite large. | 23:30 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: sudo apt-get install tomcat | 23:30 |
Leifi | this is what my login looks like: http://pastebin.com/mJmW3qzK | 23:31 |
iceroot_ | boxbeatsy: so you can start a program, hit ctrl + z and type bg, so the program is running in the background and you dont see the program, fg is pulling the program in the foreground. its a very usefull method | 23:31 |
home | hello | 23:31 |
Wallace_ | Abinadi, depends on your configuration how long they are kept. If disk space is a problem, then I guess you can delete them manually - but if it's persistently a problem, then you need to tweak your logrotate config | 23:31 |
home | how are you | 23:31 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, it sais its impossible to find package tomcat | 23:31 |
Wallace_ | Abinadi, or buy a bigger disk lol | 23:32 |
iceroot_ | !info tomcat | 23:32 |
ubottu | Package tomcat does not exist in maverick | 23:32 |
iceroot_ | !info tomcat6 | 23:32 |
ubottu | tomcat6 (source: tomcat6): Servlet and JSP engine. In component main, is optional. Version 6.0.28-2ubuntu1.1 (maverick), package size 32 kB, installed size 288 kB | 23:32 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: sudo apt-get install tomcat6 | 23:32 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, i use lubuntu | 23:32 |
Abinadi | Wallace_, lol, thanks. i have two 250 GB partitions just for that purpose. | 23:32 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, ... | 23:32 |
Wulfy | wouldnt tomcat be found in the ubuntu server version? | 23:32 |
Wallace_ | 250GB!!! and you're running out of space for logs? | 23:32 |
Wallace_ | damn! | 23:32 |
iceroot_ | Wulfy: its in every version | 23:32 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: the package is called tomcat6 not tomcat | 23:33 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, ok doing... | 23:33 |
Yowshi | how do i mount my blackberry curve | 23:34 |
Abinadi | Wallace_, LOL no, I'm not. I just saw that person's comment about having a 4 GB log file and wanted to maker sure that *I* don't have any that size lurking around . Know what I mean? | 23:34 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, after installing it will i need to tell him where is the jdk installed? | 23:34 |
iceroot_ | Wallace_: starting slapd or samba in full debug-mode its just some hours until 250gb are full of logs | 23:35 |
Gaming4JC | Hi all, this is loosely related to ubuntu (but I'm not getting much in Ubuntu-offtopic) xP - I need help with a IMacros script in firefox. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/567154/ Can anyone help debug it? :) | 23:35 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, finished | 23:35 |
Wallace_ | Abinadi, well if you do, either shorten the log rotate, reduce the number of files kept, or tweak your logging configurations (e.g. to remove debugging messages you may not need) | 23:35 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: normally not, because there is a variable called JAVA_ENVIRONMENT or something like that | 23:35 |
Gaming4JC | I need a simple way to search over 51 pages for a specific text "Toys" and it's a pain to do manually. :/ | 23:35 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, how do I launch it? | 23:35 |
Wallace_ | iceroot_, turn off debug then lol | 23:36 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta:sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat start (press tab after writing tomcat because i dont know the exact name of the init-script | 23:36 |
iceroot_ | Gaming4JC: with what tool? vim? less? | 23:36 |
Annuate | java environment is just java -version i think | 23:36 |
Abinadi | Wallace_, thanks. I don't have anything running in debug mode that I'm aware of. And I guess if I start seeing any real huge log files I can figure out a way to deleted them | 23:36 |
iceroot_ | Gaming4JC: normally its /searchtext | 23:36 |
=== razorr is now known as razorr1990 | ||
Wallace_ | Is there any way to get a tar -czf to take advantage of multiple cpu cores? I currently have 1 gzip running at 99% cpu and 3 idle cores? | 23:37 |
Gaming4JC | iceroot_: I'm using a tool called IMacros for FireFox: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/567154/ (code) records firefox movements | 23:37 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, you need root privileges to run this comand. write sudo first? | 23:37 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: yes | 23:37 |
iceroot_ | Gaming4JC: so you want to search in foirefox? press ctrl + f | 23:38 |
Gaming4JC | iceroot_: I made the script up to 40 pages only to find out something isn't quite right. Yes but I need to Ctrl+F on 51 pages :P | 23:38 |
iceroot_ | Wallace_: tar is not multithreaded (imo) | 23:39 |
iceroot_ | Wallace_: also not the cpu is the problem but the hdd (%wa in top) | 23:39 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, works! thanks | 23:39 |
andygraybeal | what is bonobo-activation-server and do i need it? can i get rid of it? | 23:40 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: nice | 23:40 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, now ill need a very light IDE. Is it possible? | 23:40 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: vim :) but i think you want something like netbeans | 23:40 |
Wallace_ | iceroot_, surely gzip can be persuaded to multi-thread. 7.4%wi, 100% cpu gzip | 23:40 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, eclipse | 23:40 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, or netb | 23:40 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, but not so heavy | 23:41 |
=== luke is now known as Guest44081 | ||
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: eclipse is everything else then light | 23:41 |
Gaming4JC | iceroot_: As you can imagine manually searching 51 websites in FireFox is going to take awhile... :/ | 23:41 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, i have a very old laptop | 23:41 |
* Gaming4JC hopes he can figure IMacros out | 23:41 | |
iceroot_ | Gaming4JC: maybe #firefox know something | 23:41 |
Yowshi | how do i mount my blackberry | 23:41 |
Gaming4JC | iceroot_: hmm good idea, I'll check. :) | 23:41 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: i am not a java-developer, my ide is always vim, its light and the most powerfull editor out there (dont come with the os emacs which dont have a good editor) | 23:42 |
rapture | according to nautilus my folders are shared, but if I go through "network" on the same machine (or any other), the shares aren't there | 23:42 |
rapture | help? | 23:42 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, I know. i need something light. I cant use eclipse here. Or meybe yes... Dont know. In what depens? | 23:42 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, sorry for the english :P | 23:42 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: maybe have a look if there is jcreator for linux out there | 23:42 |
ejv | how do i remove an iptables rule :) | 23:43 |
manfredrasta | iceroot_, to stop tomcat? ctrl+C? | 23:43 |
Wallace_ | Yowshi, in the blackberry go to Setup -> Options -> Memory Then, press the menu key, and select "enable mass storage mode" (assuming you already have the usb plugged in) | 23:43 |
iceroot_ | manfredrasta: sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat stop | 23:44 |
Wallace_ | Yowshi, Well, that's how you do it on a 9700 Bold :) | 23:44 |
rapture | can anyone help me fix samba? | 23:44 |
iceroot_ | ejv: iptables --delete chain | 23:45 |
iceroot_ | rapture: #samba | 23:45 |

manfredrasta | itaylor57, is it in the repos? | 23:47 |
Gnea | Hey everyone, so I'm trying to troubleshoot what went wrong and what's going wrong with my desktop - I'm trying to install Ubuntu Desktop 10.04 amd64 on it, it's a P4 dualcore 3ghz with 4gb ram, 500g hdd, nvidia 9300 graphics and nvidia/nforce chipsets. Managed to get Ubuntu Server installed on it, but no matter what I try, Ubuntu Desktop continually kernel panics in the worst way before it gets to the installation phase. I suspect dbus has something to do wi | 23:47 |
itaylor57 | yes | 23:47 |
otay | bedo2991_ITA I have seen that problem. I think your screen saver is using OpenGL. Change your screen saver to blank or disable it completely and then reboot. | 23:47 |
hsa2 | hello | 23:48 |

ChogyDan | Gnea: have you tried 10.10? | 23:49 |
itaylor57 | Logan_WP: wow I didn't know that, Not | 23:49 |
yowshi | wallace: well i have the 8530 curve and the mass storager mode should be enabled it has an sd card but it isnt showing up in the file system thing | 23:49 |
Wallace_ | hsa2, I don't see why that's wrong.. pae supports machines with more than 3GB of memory without having to go full 64 bit | 23:49 |
Gnea | ChogyDan: nope, shouldn't have to, an LTS ought to work just fine on it, but I'm considering giving it a shot... | 23:49 |
yowshi | wallace it doesnty even show up in gparted | 23:49 |
yowshi | damned ethernet cord got loose | 23:50 |
bedo2991_ITA | because it happens even when I do "xset dpms force off" which shouldn't launch the screensaver at all. | 23:50 |
itaylor57 | manfredrasta: that should do it | 23:50 |
hsa2 | Wallace_, i read about it a bit but i see 3 gb ram with command free -m | 23:50 |
Wallace_ | hsa2, how much should you have? | 23:50 |
bedo2991_ITA | otay: because it happens even when I do "xset dpms force off" which shouldn't launch the screensaver at all. | 23:50 |
ChogyDan | Gnea: well if you think there is a bug in the kernel or dbus, rather than bad media or something like that, 10.10 is worth a shot | 23:50 |
hsa2 | Wallace_, i have 4 gb | 23:50 |
otay | Ubuntu gots problems | 23:50 |
K|nG | iceroot_, anyhelp | 23:51 |
yowshi | Wallace_: well i have the 8530 curve and the mass storager mode should be enabled it has an sd card but it isnt showing up in the file system thing. it doesnt show up in gparted bvut it can be seen by barry backup. however i dont wanna backup i wanna be able to add files | 23:51 |
Wallace_ | yowshi, - did you select "enable mass storage" from the menu (hint: "mass storage mode support" doesn't automatically turn it on I think) | 23:51 |
Gnea | ChogyDan: yeah, I tried getting some help earlier in #ubuntu-server and the person trying to help me didn't really care, so I got frustrated and tried Ubuntu Desktop just to prove a point | 23:51 |
yowshi | Wallace_: yeah i am pretty cure i did that | 23:51 |
* otay shrugs | 23:52 | |
Wallace_ | yowshi, hmm, as soon as I did that on mine, the autoinsert popped up | 23:52 |
yowshi | what autoinsert?\ | 23:52 |
ChogyDan | Gnea: I thought server works ok | 23:52 |
Gnea | ChogyDan: and it turns out I was more right than I thought - no matter which options I pass to the kernel at boottime, it will always panic at about the same area | 23:52 |
Gnea | ChogyDan: it does, but dbus is just another application layer to get the rest of the applications in X to work | 23:52 |
Wallace_ | yowshi, autoinsert notification - pops up when you plug in a removable drive or removable media | 23:53 |
hsa2 | Wallace_, i checked and my cpu supports pae | 23:53 |
Gnea | ChogyDan: I can startx and get a desktop, but can't configure anything with it.... can't install the nvidia driver using the 'hardware driver', things like that.... heck, can't even logout/reboot/shutdown from the menu, have to do it from the commandline or ctrl-c in tty1 | 23:53 |
manfredrasta | itaylor57, done. To open? | 23:53 |

bedo2991_ITA | didn't worked | 23:53 |
magicianlord | Gnea: why | 23:53 |
Wallace_ | hsa2, do "uname -a" and see if it's actually using a pae kernel | 23:54 |
Gnea | magicianlord: because dbus absolutely refuses to work right. I had to generate a /var/lib/dbus/machine-id using dbug-uuidgen just to get it to start up, but when it goes through the pre-script execution, it triggers something with the kernel and panics, hard. can't even sysrq-b out of it. | 23:54 |
hsa2 | Wallace_, yes -> Linux businessboi 2.6.35-25-generic-pae #44-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 21 19:01:46 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux | 23:54 |
itaylor57 | manfredrasta: it should be in your menu under application programming or try running geany from terminal | 23:54 |
otay | bedo2991_ITA I thought you said the resolution changed after the screen went to sleep | 23:54 |
ChogyDan | Gnea: well, if it is a kernel panic, that's a kernel bug, even if dbus is triggering it, no? You could try some other kernels, and see how well they work. I've had good success running devel kernels on stable releases | 23:54 |
manfredrasta | itaylor57, just type geany? | 23:55 |
magicianlord | Gnea: i dont understand what that means | 23:55 |
itaylor57 | manfredrasta: yes | 23:55 |
