| master | hi :) | 07:45 |
| master | could someone tell me how can i read the ext4 filesystem from windows? | 07:46 |
| JackyAlcine | That's a good question he brought up. | 08:28 |
| JackyAlcine | I found a few drivers online for it, but they didn't work too great. | 08:28 |
| JackyAlcine | only with ext2, you'd think it would have fell back or something. | 08:28 |
| trinikrono | i think he left jacky | 08:30 |
| bioterror | JackyAlcine, ext2fs | 08:31 |
| bioterror | that might be the closest, and ext4 might be too new for it | 08:31 |
| JackyAlcine | lol, trinikrono, I know, but it just got me thinking. | 08:31 |
| trinikrono | i would use samba :D | 08:32 |
| JackyAlcine | trinikrono: Crazy question, are you from Trinidad? | 08:32 |
| JackyAlcine | lol | 08:32 |
| trinikrono | JackyAlcine: :D you know trinidad? | 08:32 |
| JackyAlcine | My best friend is from there, and I know about bake, sorrel and all the foods his grandmother makes. | 08:33 |
| JackyAlcine | I'm Haitian myself, though. | 08:33 |
| trinikrono | im the loco contact for here , well thats not too far | 08:33 |
| JackyAlcine | Woah! That's cool. Oh, I live in New York, though; my parents are Haitian and Cuban. | 08:34 |
| trinikrono | maybe i better pm you before we get in trouble lol JackyAlcine | 08:35 |
| JackyAlcine | Off to #-team? | 08:35 |
| trinikrono | #ubuntu-tt JackyAlcine we have no mods | 08:36 |
| JackyAlcine | Okay. | 08:36 |

| s-fox | Hello. | 10:37 |
| head_victim | Evening s-fox | 10:37 |
| s-fox | Good afternoon head_victim :) | 10:38 |
| head_victim | How goes in your neck of the woods? | 10:39 |
| s-fox | Alright thank you, just working on my ubuntu wiki page ( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Silver_Fox ). How are things with you ? | 10:42 |
| head_victim | Thinking about working on my wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JaredNorris after seeing how impressive yours is. | 10:44 |
| === satamusic_ is now known as satamusic | ||
| s-fox | head_victim, I would hardly call my wiki impressive. It is just a list of things I get up to :) | 11:18 |
| s-fox | head_victim, I like your wiki :) | 11:18 |
| head_victim | s-fox: well you get up to a lot ;) | 11:18 |
| head_victim | Wiki's are about the one thing I'm comfortable with | 11:23 |
| s-fox | head_victim, I was just about to say if you need any help I don't mind helping you out | 11:30 |
| JoeMaverickSett | hello, s-fox & head_victim , good evening/afternoon :) | 11:32 |
| head_victim | s-fox: Hah, well artistic style is my weak link, I'm a fan of structure and order. I gave up on making things "pretty" a long time ago, probably why I like wikis, only so much you can do. | 11:32 |
| head_victim | JoeMaverickSett o/ | 11:32 |
| JoeMaverickSett | head_victim: how's it going? MOAR WIKI? :D | 11:33 |
| head_victim | Heh wiki wiki wiki wiki wiki. You tell me how's it going, do you use chromium much and if so have you noticed the UBT header change recently? | 11:34 |
| JoeMaverickSett | head_victim: i've been using daily builds of Firefox4 lately. might check on it for ya. ;) | 11:34 |
| head_victim | I asked enough questions to work out a fix for the rounded corners on chromium browsers. | 11:36 |
| JoeMaverickSett | funny thing, chromium is now opening slower than firefox4 :) | 11:36 |
| head_victim | Loaded to ram? | 11:36 |
| JoeMaverickSett | nope, never done such things | 11:36 |
| JoeMaverickSett | head_victim: firfox4 and chromium (all daily builds) shows the same rounded corners. ;) | 11:38 |
| head_victim | JoeMaverickSett: yay, still working then. I stole the header concept for my loco so when I poked enough people to get a fix I wanted to release back upstream to UBT | 11:38 |
| JoeMaverickSett | head_victim: hope you don't have visitors with Opera, coz it's not showing rounded corners :P | 11:38 |
| head_victim | JoeMaverickSett: yeah apparently that's another bit of editing that they weren't sure what to do with | 11:38 |
| head_victim | Same with IE | 11:39 |
| JoeMaverickSett | ah, ok. | 11:39 |
| head_victim | Apparently they all have different border calls | 11:39 |
| head_victim | So essentially I just added webkit ones | 11:39 |
| duanedesign | motning | 11:39 |
| JoeMaverickSett | i think there's more of firefox and chromium users than opera or IE, head_victim | 11:39 |
| duanedesign | hmmm | 11:39 |
| duanedesign | m o r n i n g | 11:40 |
| JoeMaverickSett | duanedesign: morning :) | 11:40 |
| duanedesign | there we go | 11:40 |
| duanedesign | :) | 11:40 |
| head_victim | If you find out what the opera or ie ones are please let me know, would be good information to have | 11:40 |
| head_victim | It's nearly morning here duanedesign | 11:40 |
| duanedesign | ahhhh ie | 11:40 |
| head_victim | Well lets be honest, if you're advocating Ubuntu you'd be doing it wrong if you didn't have IE people visiting your wiki | 11:40 |
| JoeMaverickSett | head_victim: you live on the far east side of Australia? | 11:40 |
| head_victim | JoeMaverickSett: Brisbane, so yeah, Eastern Seaboard | 11:41 |
| JoeMaverickSett | IE = headache is all i could think about :P | 11:41 |
| duanedesign | head_victim: sure. Still a lot of IE users out there. For some reason | 11:41 |
| head_victim | Hah I'm about as technical as a 3x4 so no idea where to start | 11:41 |
| JoeMaverickSett | head_victim: ah, my timezone fits more with the Western Seabord of Australia (GMT +8) :) | 11:41 |
| head_victim | Ah I win, I'm +10! | 11:42 |
| JoeMaverickSett | :\ | 11:42 |
| JoeMaverickSett | head_victim: if GMT+10 shouldn't you be in bed. :P | 11:42 |
| head_victim | JoeMaverickSett: well actually, yes I should be as I have to be awake in 6 or so hours, shiftwork is a pain | 11:43 |
| JoeMaverickSett | head_victim: oh and btw, Opera is still showing square corners btw, for you to take note :) | 11:43 |
| JoeMaverickSett | head_victim: :| | 11:43 |
| JoeMaverickSett | i have a whole day of lecutres tomorrow too :\ | 11:43 |
| head_victim | JoeMaverickSett: I have a whole day of pacing the floor making sure 20 people are doing their job properly :/ | 11:43 |
| head_victim | Swap? | 11:44 |
| JoeMaverickSett | head_victim: ah, sorry, nope. :D | 11:44 |
| JoeMaverickSett | i'm better with what i'm currently doing. ;) | 11:44 |
| head_victim | Oh, I just realised we're not in -team | 11:44 |
| JoeMaverickSett | :o | 11:45 |
| * JoeMaverickSett runs and hides. | 11:45 | |
| s-fox | Hello JoeMaverickSett | 11:47 |
| JoeMaverickSett | s-fox: hiyas, how do you do? :) | 11:48 |
| s-fox | I am okay thank you, just working on my wiki | 11:48 |
| JoeMaverickSett | great. :) | 11:48 |
| s-fox | Also getting slightly annoyed at unicode | 11:48 |
| s-fox | But bleh | 11:48 |
| s-fox | How are you ? | 11:48 |
| JoeMaverickSett | i'm fine. thank you for asking. | 11:49 |

| mtkorb | I'm experiencing an issue similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/117303 and I ran the command "iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE" to fix it. This works for the current session, but when I reboot, the error comes back. How can I make this change permanent? | 16:24 |
| ubot2 | Ubuntu bug 117303 in linux-source-2.6.20 "lo ate my ip address" [Undecided,Won't fix] | 16:24 |
| charlie-tca | You have to save the iptables, and reload that table each restart | 16:25 |
| charlie-tca | I do that with a script in /etc/init.d/ and a link to it in /etc/rc2.d . I don't link anywhere else, since rc2.d is the one run when starting Ubuntu | 16:27 |
| mtkorb | charlie-tca: Ok I'll try that. Thanks. | 16:31 |
| doez | Hello. Would I need apache or whatever to make firefox understand that my file is php-scripted in Ubuntu 10.10? Right now its asking me to download the file when i load it in firefox. | 16:33 |
| bioterror | yes | 16:34 |
| bioterror | I remember so | 16:34 |
| bioterror | you need apache with php module | 16:34 |
| doez | Kay, thanks. | 16:35 |
| doez | Kind of retarded, but ok. | 16:35 |
| bioterror | hmmm | 16:35 |
| doez | When you download php you expect the stuff to work. Well, I did anyways. | 16:35 |
| mtkorb | What is the naming convention of files in rc2.d? They start with S and a 2-digit number...what does the number mean? | 16:39 |
| charlie-tca | the number is approximately where to run it, they run in sequence starting at 01 to 99 | 16:52 |
| charlie-tca | the iptable should be somewhere around S90 | 16:52 |
| charlie-tca | and yes, the capitol S is important | 16:53 |
| charlie-tca | They are just a link to the files in /etc/init.d, with the S and number in front | 16:53 |
| mtkorb | charlie-tca: The script doesn't seem to be working. It just consists of the command I mentioned and is executable by all. It's in /etc/init.d and /etc/rc2.d/S99iptables is a symlink to it. Is there anything else I need to do? | 16:59 |
| charlie-tca | You are using restore iptables command, right? since you saved it manually, that should be all it needs | 17:00 |
| charlie-tca | No, if you put that iptables command in a file by itself, it should work | 17:01 |
| mtkorb | ohh... How do I save and restore iptables? | 17:01 |
| halpbatman | k so guys.. I have a 10 inch screen and when ubuntu preference windows open | 17:07 |
| halpbatman | they often go outside the screen | 17:07 |
| halpbatman | how do i put a scroller on the side | 17:07 |

| charlie-tca | mtkorb: I can not remember. I use a script, that is huge, to write a new firewall and masquerade every boot | 17:13 |
| mtkorb | charlie-tca: That's ok I think I've found it on the Ubuntu site. Thanks. | 17:13 |
| charlie-tca | take it back... looks like iptable-save and iptable-restore | 17:14 |
| charlie-tca | take it back... looks like iptables-save and iptables-restore | 17:14 |
| charlie-tca | mtkorb: might even be easier to use ufw, the ubuntu fire wall | 17:16 |
| mtkorb | I tried adding this to /etc/network/interfaces .... | 17:19 |
| mtkorb | pre-up iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.rules | 17:19 |
| mtkorb | post-down iptables-save > /etc/iptables.rules | 17:19 |
| mtkorb | but it didn't work | 17:19 |
| hggdh | mtkorb: /etc/network/interfaces carries the definitions of your interfaces (see 'man interfaces'), not commands | 17:29 |
| johnny77 | Is there a way to find out what version of Ubuntu a certain software got added to the repositories? | 17:33 |
| charlie-tca | yes, johnny77 | 17:33 |
| charlie-tca | rmadison PACKAGE | 17:33 |
| charlie-tca | will tell us the earliest active release it is in | 17:34 |
| charlie-tca | I don't know anything that tells you if it was added before the current releases | 17:34 |
| charlie-tca | what is the package? | 17:35 |
| johnny77 | I'm looking to edit the Seamonkey wiki page. It has a command line installation instructions that are basically download unpack tar ball. | 17:36 |
| johnny77 | However it is now in the repository. | 17:36 |
| johnny77 | I'm just wondered when from the time the page was written to now was it put in the repository. | 17:37 |
| charlie-tca | seamonky has only been there since 8.04 | 17:37 |
| mtkorb | iptables-save isn't printing anything. Isn't it supposed to print to standard out? | 17:37 |
| charlie-tca | not to my knowledge, it doesn't print | 17:38 |
| mtkorb | man iptables-save says "iptables-save is used to dump the contents of an IP Table in easily parseable format to STDOUT" | 17:38 |
| johnny77 | charlie-tca: Since 8.04 is about to become EOL, then would it be safe to only include instructions that install through the repositories? | 17:39 |
| charlie-tca | I thought you had to direct it, though? It has been too long | 17:39 |
| charlie-tca | johnny77: yes | 17:39 |
| charlie-tca | It was in 8.04, too. | 17:40 |
| johnny77 | charlie-tca: Thank you. That helps a lot. | 17:42 |
| charlie-tca | You are welcome | 17:43 |
| charlie-tca | wiki is a bear to maintain, once anything gets in it | 17:44 |
| mtkorb | charlie-tca: ok it works if I run with sudo. I noticed there's a file in /etc called iptables.sav. But even "sudo iptables-save > iptables.sav" says Permission denied. | 17:45 |
| charlie-tca | That's when you run sudo iptables-save > iptables.mine and see if it works | 17:47 |
| mtkorb | still says Permission denied | 17:48 |
| charlie-tca | and if that works, does iptables-restore > iptables.mine put it back? | 17:48 |
| mtkorb | it only works if i put it in my home directory... | 17:51 |
| mtkorb | charlie-tca: and when I run "sudo iptables-restore > iptables.mine" it just hangs... | 17:57 |
| charlie-tca | well, that ain't the right way then | 17:58 |

| gaurav_pawaskar | Hi guys, I have some basic doubts in coding in Ubuntu | 19:05 |
| bioterror | !ask | gaurav_pawaskar | 19:07 |
| bioterror | ;D | 19:07 |
| bioterror | oh | 19:07 |
| bioterror | is our bot in split | 19:07 |
| bioterror | gaurav_pawaskar, dont hesitate to ask | 19:07 |
| ubot2 | gaurav_pawaskar: 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. :-) | 19:07 |
| gaurav_pawaskar | I just got assigned with 2 bugs to fix. I found this command to get source package: bzr branch lp:ubuntu/<packagename> | 19:09 |
| gaurav_pawaskar | is that correct? | 19:09 |
| seidos | gaurav_pawaskar: you might try in #ubuntu-bugs. i need to install bzr | 19:12 |
| seidos | but i'll try it out if you give me a sec | 19:12 |
| gaurav_pawaskar | okey | 19:12 |
| ddecator | gaurav_pawaskar: yes, that will copy a branch that you can work on and then upload to lp as a personal branch, then request a merge of the changes | 19:12 |
| charlie-tca | actually, got to ask that in #ubuntu-devel. #ubuntu-bugs does not do the fixing, we do the getting ready to fix things | 19:12 |
| ddecator | charlie-tca: +1 | 19:13 |
| ddecator | gaurav_pawaskar: there are wiki pages on how to fix bugs, let me find one a sec | 19:13 |
| charlie-tca | gaurav_pawaskar: thanks for not asking in #ubuntu-bugs | 19:13 |
| seidos | charlie-tca: thanks for letting me know | 19:15 |
| gaurav_pawaskar | then who actually write code to fix bug.. I am getting confused now :( | 19:15 |
| bioterror | gaurav_pawaskar, you're up late? ;) | 19:15 |
| ddecator | gaurav_pawaskar: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/TODO/Bugs | 19:15 |
| seidos | *then who actually writes code to fix bugs | 19:15 |
| ddecator | you *should* be able to get all of the information you need from that link | 19:15 |
