| starztorm | Hi, im a new user of ubuntu... I have some questions conserning the software manager, installing a game that is not listed there and upgrading, removing etc... Would anyone pm me? ill try not to be a pain in the ass...... Ive been reading some tutorials and how-to's.. But just want confirmation that i have grasped it all right. Anyone willing to help a newbie? | 00:00 |

| ubottu | starztorm: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 00:00 |
| TheMozart | exutux: the total installation size is a little under 1 GB | 00:00 |
| starztorm | ok ok :) | 00:00 |
| Pici | TheMozart: You may want to take a look at this, specifically the advanced users (GUI) section: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements | 00:01 |
| exutux | TheMozart: a desktop? | 00:01 |
| TheMozart | exutux: you claim the base ubuntu install is at least 4GB, but I am calling your information misleading... because the base install is a little under 1 GB | 00:01 |
| jrib | ChesterX: so enabling a compose key, I can type ñ by hitting compose key + ~, releasing, then hitting 'n'. That's a bit of a pain to type though :) | 00:01 |
| exutux | TheMozart: maybe you talking about a minimal installation | 00:02 |
| starztorm | Software manager. Does it only concern the programs listed in it? or will it find all the programs that i install "outside" the software manager? | 00:02 |
| Pici | TheMozart: And its possible that we're confused, I assumed you wanted to install a desktop system as well. | 00:02 |
| jrib | ChesterX: what layout do you use now? If USA, you might consider USA international | 00:02 |
| TheMozart | exutux: the total installation size is a little under 1 GB. NOT 4GB as you have misleadingly stated | 00:02 |
| TheMozart | Pici: i want to install Ubuntu from the LiveCD | 00:02 |
| LjL | TheMozart: the total installed size of standard Ubuntu with GNOME is >2GB | 00:02 |
| exutux | TheMozart: a regular Desktop installation needs about 4GB of free space | 00:02 |
| Pici | TheMozart: So... Ubuntu Desktop. And what did that link say that I just sent you? | 00:02 |
| TheMozart | LjL tell that to exutux because he claims its 4GB | 00:03 |
| LjL | TheMozart: i'm telling you that it's definitely not <1GB | 00:03 |
| ChesterX | jrib, i have the normal german layout. I used German Eliminate Dead Keys. It does the job but I ll keep looking ;-) Thank you for your help it will ease thinks a lot :D | 00:03 |
| ulrichard | I'm still struggling with makefile syntax. For example, I don't understand this : http://paste.ubuntu.com/574216/ | 00:03 |
| LjL | TheMozart: and IIRC it's actually around 3GB, at least with Hardy | 00:03 |
| TheMozart | LjL I know.. tell exutux because he falsely claimes its 4GB | 00:03 |
| === sburjan_ is now known as sburjan` | ||
| LjL | TheMozart: and you falsely claim it's less than a gig. your point? | 00:04 |
| exutux | OMG | 00:04 |
| Logan_WP | !attitude | TheMozart | 00:04 |
| ubottu | TheMozart: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 00:04 |
| jrib | ChesterX: with usa international (altgr) I can just hit altgr + n. You can hack something together too: like modify the layout to do what you want or just setup a keybinding with e.g. xbindkeys to insert the key (I think). I have to go now, good luck | 00:04 |
| TheMozart | Ok! well it seems its NOT possible to install Ubuntu from LiveCD onto my 2GB USB stick,, so I guess I will just grab it from here: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/put-ubuntu-10-04-on-flash-drive-using-windows/ | 00:04 |

| miketomdool | oh i did see a tutorial online on how to compress files like a live cd so that you can take your system anywhere.. but that was a while ago | 00:05 |
| Nijabo | <Nijabo> Is there some IRC I should turn to with questions regarding getting into "Getting started" | 00:05 |
| Nijabo | <Nijabo> I have one regarding TestDrive | 00:05 |
| Pici | TheMozart: thats the same instructions as the Persistant Live CD ones that we gave you before and you claimed you didn't want to use... | 00:05 |

| exutux | TheMozart: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements | 00:06 |
| Pici | krycek: excuse me? | 00:06 |
| TheMozart | Pici: I did the LiveCD USB creator thing,, but it doesnt install Ubuntu.. all it did was make a mirror copy of the live CD | 00:06 |
| Pici | TheMozart: Thats the same thing that you're going to get with http://www.pendrivelinux.com/put-ubuntu-10-04-on-flash-drive-using-windows/ | 00:06 |
| krycek | Pici: you arent excused. | 00:06 |
| exutux | TheMozart: i repeat persistent live usb stick is different | 00:06 |
| TheMozart | is there another version of Ubuntu that takes up less space? | 00:07 |
| ZeroZiat | Hey hey, little question about installing Ubuntu. | 00:07 |
| Pici | krycek: Lets try to say on-topic here. | 00:07 |
| starztorm | If i install a game using the aptitude command, will the update manager list updates for it when new versions are released? | 00:07 |
| Pici | starztorm: Yes. | 00:07 |
| TheMozart | exutux: how come that Usb Install from that link I gave you works with 2GB USB sticks? | 00:07 |
| nsd | starztorm: Yes, as with any other package | 00:07 |
| ZeroZiat | I happen to have a free unallocated, unpartitioned 10 gigs on my drive, how can I make ubuntu use those in the installer? | 00:07 |
| Logan_WP | !ask | ZeroZiat | 00:07 |
| ubottu | ZeroZiat: 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. :-) | 00:07 |
| Pici | starztorm: Well, as long as those new versions are uploaded to the Ubuntu repositories of course. | 00:08 |
| exutux | TheMozart: for usb live persistent 1GB is enough | 00:08 |
| dan_ | Hello everyone, Im having trouble getting the nvidia 330m graphics card to work with ubuntu 10.10. Can anyone help me? | 00:08 |
| TheMozart | exutux: you stated that I need at least 4GB to install Ubuntu.. so explain to me how that link I gave you says I only need 2GB | 00:08 |
| Logan_WP | !nvidia | dan_ | 00:08 |
| ubottu | dan_: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 00:08 |
| nsd | starztorm: apt-get, aptitude, and synaptic all acheive the same thing, btw | 00:08 |
| TheMozart | exutux: thats because the usb live usb creator doesnt install it, it only mirrors the liveCD onto the USB stick | 00:08 |
| exutux | TheMozart: i refer to official wiki and requirements not about link on world | 00:08 |
| TheMozart | exutux: so you cannot explain it? | 00:09 |
| starztorm | Pici: aha. Does the repositories concern other games than those listed in the software center? | 00:09 |
| miketomdool | you might be able to use this and a few other things to put your system on a flash drive http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man1/mksquashfs.1.html | 00:09 |

| ZeroZiat | I happen to have a free unallocated, unpartitioned 10 gigs on my drive, how can I make ubuntu use those in the installer? | 00:10 |
| TheMozart | exutux: how do you explain that link? | 00:10 |
| allure | hi... will pppoeconf only autodetect the modem if it is already in bridge mode? | 00:10 |
| dan_ | http://forum.notebookreview.com/5820189-post2517.html This is the link I have tried to follow with no avail | 00:10 |
| drc | TheMozart: no it doesn't, It also creates a ext2 file system for the "persistence" part...that is not simply mirroring the iso | 00:10 |
| dan_ | i get an error right when i try to edit anything | 00:10 |
| exutux | TheMozart: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent read it | 00:10 |
| exutux | It is possible to have Ubuntu or Kubuntu on a USB drive (AKA USB Stick or Thumb drive or Flash drive) or USB hard disk drive with persistent mode. This means that you can boot from a USB drive and keep customisations such as keyboard layout, numlock, preferences, additional packages saved on the drive. This can be done using linux or windows | 00:11 |
| LjL | TheMozart, it's really very simple - if you "install" (which is not really installing) by making the USB key the same as a live CD, it'll take as much as a live CD takes (around 700MB) - if you actually *install Ubuntu*, that's bigger than 1GB | 00:11 |
| TheMozart | I wonder how come this Ubuntu only needs 2GB, but exutux claims Ubuntu needs 4GB? http://www.pendrivelinux.com/put-ubuntu-10-04-on-flash-drive-using-windows/ | 00:11 |
| LjL | i don't think there's more to say about this | 00:11 |
| Metaxa | /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER Metaxa xbcscitawyqd | 00:11 |
| Trashi | hi. im browsing http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/allpackages sometimes behind a package i can read "univserve". so i think that means, that the "universe" packages includes are all other packages of the same app .. is that right? | 00:11 |
| jcdaemon85 | hello some one help me plis? | 00:11 |
| TheMozart | LjL Yes I understand.. so can I install it from LiveCD onto my 2GB stick? | 00:11 |
| jcdaemon85 | see how i can see rmvb on backtrack 4 r1?? | 00:11 |
| LjL | TheMozart: define install. | 00:11 |
| Jordan_U | Metaxa: Change your password. | 00:11 |
| TheMozart | LjL pressing "install" | 00:12 |
| nsd | Metaxa: you just broadcasted your password | 00:12 |
| Metaxa | I can'y figure this thing out | 00:12 |
| LjL | TheMozart: no. | 00:12 |
| Pici | Thats not the password. | 00:12 |
| ZeroZiat | I happen to have a free unallocated, unpartitioned 10 gigs on my drive, how can I make ubuntu use those in the installer? | 00:12 |
| Pici | Metaxa: Don't put the space in front of /msg | 00:12 |
| TheMozart | LjL then how come this version Ubuntu works on 2GB? http://www.pendrivelinux.com/put-ubuntu-10-04-on-flash-drive-using-windows/ | 00:12 |
| nsd | Pici: how's that work then? | 00:12 |
| LjL | TheMozart: you know why. stop trolling. | 00:12 |
| Pici | nsd: Its the verify key that you get after you've registered your nick. It only works if you're already identified to your account. | 00:12 |
| TheMozart | LjL will installing from LiveCD onto my 8GB USB stick work? | 00:13 |
| LjL | TheMozart: yes. | 00:13 |
| nsd | Pici: Ah. | 00:13 |
| Trashi | hi. im browsing http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/allpackages sometimes behind a package i can read "univserve". so i think that means, that the "universe" packages includes are all other packages of the same app .. is that right? | 00:13 |
| TheMozart | LjL I have no idea why.. and it seems you cannot explain it to me | 00:13 |
| skor | is there something in ubuntu that allows dynamic libraries to be specifically mapped at runtime ? | 00:13 |
| ZeroZiat | I happen to have a free unallocated, unpartitioned 10 gigs on my drive, how can I make ubuntu use those in the installer? | 00:13 |
| jcdaemon85 | friends can helpme plis? i install backtrack 4 r1 but i can see rmvb | 00:13 |
| skor | for example: when running tcpdump, use custom libpcap library instead of the default | 00:13 |
| maco | ZeroZiat: go to manual mode on the partitioning step and allocate it | 00:13 |
| LjL | jcdaemon85: this is not the backtrack channel | 00:13 |
| Pici | jcdaemon85: We do not support backtrack here. Please use their support channel: #backtrack-linux | 00:13 |
| bastidrazor | jcdaemon85: go to #backtrack-linux | 00:13 |
| Jordan_U | TheMozart: LiveCD's use a read only compressed "squashfs" filesystem. It's compressed so that they can fit everything onto a single CD. Squashfs is always read only, even on flash drives, so you can't use it for a complete (upgradeable) install. | 00:13 |
| TheMozart | LjL if I run the Ubunti LiveCD and choose INSTALL at the desktop.. will it install Ubuntu onto my 8GB USB stick and NOT alter or touch my hard drive? | 00:13 |
| skor | like /etc/libmap.conf on freebsd | 00:14 |
| jcdaemon85 | tanks | 00:14 |
| Metaxa | Pici: when i do /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER Metaxa xxxxxx, it returns back unknown command, i'm using empathy | 00:14 |
| LjL | TheMozart: i already answered that | 00:14 |
| ZeroZiat | maco: I really don't get it, I can select that space but no idea if it will use it, or if I have to format it into something. | 00:14 |
| ZeroZiat | Jordan_U: Thanks for solving my wifi problem and my hdd problem earlier. :) | 00:14 |
| TheMozart | Jordan_U: so how do I install Ubuntu if I cant from the desktop livecd? | 00:14 |
| Pici | Trashi: Not exactly. This should explain it better: http://www.ubuntu.com/project/about-ubuntu/components | 00:14 |
| TheMozart | LjL I missed your answer,, repeat please | 00:14 |
| Jordan_U | ZeroZiat: You're welcome. | 00:14 |
| LjL | [00:56:47] <LjL> TheMozart: i do believe your USB stick, if inserted at the time, will show up as a hard drive and you'll be able to install on it, but i can't say i'm 100% sure about that | 00:14 |
| maco | ZeroZiat: in manual mode? add a partition in that space. pick a format (ext3 or ext4 are the norm, ext4 is default in auto-partitioning). set the mount point to / and then itll be the system partition for ubuntu | 00:15 |
| TheMozart | LjL so you are guessing? | 00:15 |
| Jordan_U | TheMozart: You should have enough room to do a normal Xubuntu install. | 00:15 |
| LjL | TheMozart: i can only say again, stop trolling. | 00:15 |
| ZeroZiat | maco: Oh, thanks! | 00:15 |
| LjL | TheMozart: i could also add, go insert the CD and try and stop wasting everybody's time. | 00:15 |
| TheMozart | LjL you are giving a lot of information based on your own assumptions and guesswork.. you seem to do that a lot... if you dont know the answers, then admit it and stop making things up as you go. | 00:15 |
| krycek | hehe | 00:16 |
| ZeroZiat | oh boy | 00:16 |
| LjL | TheMozart: i've admitted it almost exactly 20 minutes. now why don't you admit you are a troll and leave this channel? | 00:16 |
| LjL | *minutes ago | 00:16 |
| * drc ducks and covers | 00:16 | |
| Trashi | Pici: the problem is the following: i try to install libimobiledevices libraries inclusive utilities ... and i dont know the name of the package which includes all libraries, programs, utilities, etc. | 00:16 |
| ZeroZiat | Maybe you both should get a second opinion? | 00:17 |
| gflores | exit | 00:17 |
| pmp6nl | Hello, does anyone know why in 10.10 I am only allowed to select one minute or less for dimming the display in power management? | 00:17 |
| TheMozart | LjL you fool a lot of beginners with your comments which are based on guessing and assumptions.. trying to big note yourself as an educated Ubuntu user.. but the reality is, most of what you say is not even accurate and you are just making it up as you go. | 00:17 |
| Pici | Trashi: You mean libimobiledevice-utils ? | 00:17 |
| TheMozart | adios amigos | 00:17 |
| krycek | interesting .) | 00:17 |

| Starminn | Nevermind, I got it. It lied about what the device name was. | 00:38 |
| coz_ | Starminn, I would try gksudo nautilus then open the drive and try deleteing it that way | 00:38 |
| francesco_ | I was wondering if anyone could help with a question about the /etc/issue file ? | 00:38 |
| coz_ | Starminn, or if the drive is empty you could use /system/administration/disk utility | 00:38 |
| Starminn | coz_ psusi: Nah, I ran "sudo rm -r /media/4.1\ GB\ Filesystem/.trash-1000/* but it said nothing like that existed. Then I realized it's not actually 4.1 GB Filesystem but is instead 1842-7742 and that did it | 00:39 |

| syrinx_ | There are several ways to exit from su, i.e., to return the login session or terminal window to its former owner, for those situations in which the exit is not automatic (e.g., when su is not used with its -c option). One is to type the word exit and then press the ENTER key. Another is to simultaneously press the CTRL and d keys. | 01:02 |

| aazert | thank you very much | 01:13 |
| aazert | but it was me i change permission | 01:13 |
| traceback0 | bastidrazor: it can't even recognize the service, why would that help? | 01:13 |
| aazert | and mistake i thing i done chmod -R | 01:13 |

| Pies | you should be careful with sudo ;) | 01:14 |
| aazert | thanks a lot | 01:14 |
| bastidrazor | traceback0: are you sure you're typing it correctly? apparmor 'is' a service | 01:14 |
| Pies | but if you know what was reason, then kay | 01:14 |
| aazert | yes next sure | 01:14 |
| Pies | okay | 01:14 |
| aazert | bye | 01:14 |
| Pies | yup, bye | 01:14 |
| traceback0 | bastidrazor: yes? service apparmor start | 01:14 |
| bastidrazor | traceback0: no idea then. apparmor is a service unless you've made changes somewhere that prevents it from loading the module. | 01:16 |

| ChogyDan | BlkSvr: I take it you don't mean linux kernel 1.6 :) cause that is a long time ago | 01:54 |
| BlkSvr | ChogyDan, no i mean kernel 1.6 was on my first distro. | 01:54 |
| drc | BlkSvr: old flavors, huh? Yggdrasil or SLS ? | 01:54 |
| A|i3N | I might try this and get back to you Miketomdool. hehe. Hope it doesn't mess native boot up if i do. | 01:54 |
| BlkSvr | drc, BK | 01:55 |
| crimsonmane | When my computer sits idle for roughly 15 minutes my WUSB refuses to function until a restart. I've moved screensaver and power management to 2 hours to make sure that going idle into those modes wasnt causing it. Is there a fix that i cannot find online, or perhaps a way i can reboot the WUSB itself without rebooting the computer? i would rather just have it work as intended but whatever help anyone offers would be ... helpful. | 01:55 |
| ChogyDan | BlkSvr: ok, that's well before me. Anyway, still, virtual package just means that there isn't a package with that name, and other packages provide it. You need to select the right name. See dpkg -l | grep apache | 01:56 |
| drc | BlkSvr: hmmm...don't remember that one (they say the memory is the second thing to go) | 01:56 |
| Jonii | I wonder how the flash problem(flash crashing occasionally when closing windows or firefox tabs) was suddenly fixed | 01:57 |
| BlkSvr | sorry would you say that last thing again? i got disconnected. | 01:57 |
| ahaziah77 | hello, i have a skype question | 01:58 |
| ChogyDan | crimsonmane: is this a card supported by linux? I would try linux-backports-modules | 01:58 |
| ahaziah77 | does anyone know if there is a way to play the skype games on ubuntu? | 01:58 |
| ChogyDan | BlkSvr: ok, that's well before me. Anyway, virtual package just means that there isn't a package with that name, and other packages provide it. You need to find the right name. See dpkg -l | grep apache | 01:58 |
| crimsonmane | chogydan: yeah its on the list of supported hardware, although this problem has existed for years. i will look up what you said. i don't know what that really is. | 01:58 |
| Starminn | In an applications (TuxGuitar) sound is not being outputted. | 01:58 |
| ChogyDan | crimsonmane: lucid or maverick? | 01:59 |
| BlkSvr | thanks :) , oh and drc: bk is a pourtugese installation, got it from a exchange student who bricked his labtop | 01:59 |
| crimsonmane | maverick. the problem has existed since the dawn of time tho | 01:59 |
| BlkSvr | drc: was banian kaumba or somthing like that | 01:59 |
| ahaziah77 | ????? | 01:59 |
| ChogyDan | crimsonmane: maybe it is hardware, but the lbm install should be something like: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-maverick-generic | 02:00 |
| drc | BlkSvr: ah... | 02:00 |
| ersyah | a | 02:00 |
| crimsonmane | what is "lbm" ? | 02:00 |
| Starminn | In an application (TucGuitar), there is no sound being outputted, although sound has worked beautifully for all other apps. Anybody have any usggestions for fixes? | 02:00 |
| ChogyDan | Starminn: try running it from the command line, see if you get any errors | 02:01 |
| BlkSvr | know whats really cool? If you take out a harddisk used by windows, you can see the fragmentation as darkspots where data is in random spots :P | 02:01 |
| BlkSvr | but if you take out a ubuntu harddisk ... its all kinda centered, minimal frags :P | 02:01 |
| ahaziah77 | can someone help? | 02:02 |
| Starminn | ChogyDan: /dev/sequencer: No such file or directory. Okay, well that probably isn't good. | 02:02 |
| bezao | how can i list all users created on my ubuntu? (command line) | 02:02 |

| Starminn | ahaziah77: Ask again, all on one line, and maybe somebody else can answer. | 02:03 |
| ahaziah77 | is there any way to run the skype applications, like playing games on ubuntu, all i have is the video? | 02:04 |

| BlkSvr | thank you ubottu | 02:05 |
| crimsonmane | ahaziah77: use Wine and the windows version of skype? | 02:05 |
| ChogyDan | Starminn: I suspect that it is looking for some sort sound support that isn't there. It might be tough to track down a solution | 02:05 |
| Starminn | ChogyDan: I know. That's why I wanted to just try Reinstalling it first and crossing my fingers that it accidentally skipped something. | 02:05 |
| Starminn | ChogyDan: Nope, no luck. ALright, well I give up, I don't need it that bad and I was only trying it to see what it was like. | 02:07 |
| ClankBot | CLANK IN | 02:07 |
| Starminn | ChogyDan: Unless you have a really awesome idea off the top of your head, of curse, but other than that it's not worth troubleshooting honestly lol | 02:07 |
| adminewb | My lucid installation is behaving oddly: at random long intervals, my files seem to acquire emblems no one put there, that can't be removed. Other emblems on these files can be added or removed ok. Thoughts? | 02:08 |
| ChogyDan | Starminn: yeah, that is one to sort out on launchpad. The idea I have is something like: http://wwww.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=41601 | 02:08 |
| BlkSvr | ChogyDan, so how do i get rid of this ? | 02:09 |
| BlkSvr | http://imagebin.org/140705 | 02:09 |
| BlkSvr | oh and i midaswell tell you what im doin, im using Gnacktrack, installing it, then installin ubuntu and linux mint meta packages over it. and yea.... ive done this before. | 02:09 |
| Starminn | ChogyDan: Error's still there. | 02:10 |
| BlkSvr | there all ubuntu derivatives so they should all be applicable. | 02:10 |

| BlkSvr | ChogyDan, services, see apache is still in there. | 02:11 |
| agliodbs | anyone know how I map dev8-32 device numbering to device names? i.e. /dev/sda/? | 02:11 |
| adminewb | My lucid installation is behaving oddly: at apparently random long intervals, my files&folders seem to acquire emblems no one put there, that can't be removed. Other emblems on these files can be added or removed ok. Thoughts anyone? Ring any bells anyone? | 02:12 |
| crimsonmane | chogydan: was it you telling me to fetch the backports? if so, or if not, do i now need to reboot to finalize (as am used to with windows) or with linux is it flying already? | 02:12 |
| ChogyDan | BlkSvr: OH, no idea | 02:12 |
| ChogyDan | crimsonmane: I actually don't know, but I imagine that you would need to reboot | 02:13 |
| BlkSvr | ChogyDan: sigh. | 02:13 |
| lighta | hoi, how can I retrieve a file I just erase ? (e.g lets say I copy a file from a different location on past it on my current directory. Filename was similare and my copy erased my previous file, can I get it back ?) | 02:14 |
| adminewb | agliodbs, did you want to mknod to fill your /dev directory? | 02:14 |
| === ashish is now known as Guest22681 | ||
| ChogyDan | BlkSvr: that might be something specific to the distro you are using. I don't have the services menu | 02:15 |
| BlkSvr | ChogyDan, it is. I asked the dev and he said it was just simple applications.menu editing, he didnt do anything nobody else on ubuntu coudlnt. | 02:16 |
| agliodbs | adminewb: no, just trying to interpret SAR output | 02:16 |
| Starminn | lighta: I don't have a suggestion, but a better way to ask this (just so it's more in plain-English) is "How do I retrieve a file that was overwritten?" (BEcause what you're talking about is overwriting it sounds, so just use "overwritten" instead of the long example lol) | 02:16 |
| parkaboy | anybody having problems installing programs from Software Center: xchat and a couple of other things today said coming from "Unauthorized sources" then didn't install, but terminal install worked fine | 02:16 |
| BlkSvr | ChogyDan, infact the dev half-made everything here.... its rather annoyin. This distro still reads as ubuntu to grub2, that should tell you how much work he put into it lmao. | 02:16 |
| Starminn | !recover | lighta (See if any of these help, although I'm not sure if it applies to being overwritten) | 02:17 |
| ubottu | lighta (See if any of these help, although I'm not sure if it applies to being overwritten): Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 02:17 |
| ChogyDan | BlkSvr: you can just rightclick the menu and edit out those entries | 02:17 |
| EmuAlert | I can't figure out how to get crontab to work. I'm trying to get my file to run every minute (for easy testing), but my line from crontab -e, '* * * * * /home/brian/launchstuff', doesn't do anything. /home/brian/launchstuff does work straight from the terminal, so that's not the problem | 02:17 |
| lighta | thx Starminn =) hehe exemple was clear | 02:17 |
| DrMax | last update broke my nfs: dmsg has message "svc: failed to register lockdv1 RPC service (errno 97)" | 02:17 |
| DrMax | how do I fix that ? | 02:17 |
| BlkSvr | ChogyDan, if they were a grey ? , i would .... but theres an icon, which means some installation is left over | 02:18 |

| Rhamphoryncus | I have ubuntu 10.04 booted on my old harddrive and just bought a new drive. I'd like to do a clean install of 10.10 on the new drives. What's the easiest method to do that? | 02:19 |
| BlkSvr | those were whats left when i ran apt-get purge apache* | 02:19 |
| quizme | i have a directory named "-p" (without the double quotes). How do I rmdir it ? | 02:19 |
| BlkSvr | Rhamphoryncus, download the new install, put it on a flash drive , and install to the new system. | 02:19 |
| devcorkvince | Rhamphoryncus: just make the new drive primary | 02:19 |
| Rhamphoryncus | BlkSvr: don't have one handy :/ | 02:19 |
| Starminn | quizme: You could try putting it between quotes or single-quotes. Basically, anything that tells Bash "This is a single string" | 02:20 |
| BlkSvr | Rhamphoryncus a dvd or a dc will do ? | 02:20 |
| BlkSvr | cd* | 02:20 |
| quizme | starminn: i tried that | 02:20 |
| Starminn | quizme: A better place to ask if that doesn't work is in #bash | 02:20 |
| Starminn | quizme: Eh, ask in #bash then. They're the channel for that. | 02:20 |
| quizme | starminn: thanks | 02:20 |
| Rhamphoryncus | BlkSvr: seems wasteful but also seems like the most reliable solution. The wiki FromLinux page has instructions to avoid it, but it also looks to avoid 75% of the installer and the autoconfiguration that comes with it | 02:20 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: btw, apt-get uses regexp so you want to be using 'apt-get purge apache.*' | 02:21 |
| adminewb | agliodbs: sar system monitor? | 02:21 |
| Starminn | IS there a way to make a PortablLinux of Maverick? PortableLinux seems to only support up to Jaunty | 02:21 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbein, thanks, ugh not used to ubuntu, i wish i could go back to a pure cli installation.... but i need the hacker tools ... ugh. | 02:21 |
| Rhamphoryncus | hmm barely have enough free space to download the image ;) | 02:22 |
| adminewb | Lucid is behaving oddly: at random long intervals, my files&folders acquire emblems for no apparent reason, that can't be removed. Other emblems on these can be added/removed ok. Ring any bells anyone? | 02:22 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: your system looks severely broken to me (reading through backlog) and you would have it reinstalled faster than the "fixing" you are currently doing. | 02:22 |
| Fosten | anyone had any luck getting vlc to capture rawdv in ubuntu without dvgrab? | 02:23 |
| bo_kane | hey so does anyone know how to get out of busybox in ubuntu/xubuntu/kubuntu?? | 02:23 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbein, its not broken , its just not uninstalling stuff. And this isnt ubuntu. its a ubuntu offshoot made for pen-testing. I plan to strip it down package by package | 02:23 |
| === sun_ is now known as Guest60068 | ||
| BlkSvr | Ampelbein, till its just the pentest tools and bassic system utilities | 02:24 |
| bo_kane | which flavor are you talking about?? | 02:24 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: why not go the other way round and use debootstrap to install a minimal system and go from there? | 02:24 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: seems way easier than what you are doing now. | 02:24 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbein, cus the dev didnt put that option in. | 02:24 |
| bo_kane | what OS are you talking about BlkSvr and Ampelbein? | 02:25 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbiel: Gnacktrack 5. | 02:25 |
| bo_kane | interesting | 02:25 |
| BlkSvr | bo_kane, i tried putting the tools into ubuntu, but this is infact easier (surprisingly) | 02:25 |
| bo_kane | which is easier? | 02:26 |
| bo_kane | installing gnacktrack or the tools? clarify :P | 02:26 |
| bo_kane | ..why not just add a gnacktrack ppa or request such a rep/o | 02:26 |
| bo_kane | *repo? | 02:26 |
| BlkSvr | bo_kane: installing gnack, ripping it down to the bassics, then installing ubuntu and linux mint meta packages over it. | 02:26 |
| bo_kane | oh cool | 02:27 |
| bo_kane | ..is it nearly identical to backtrack in terms of programs? | 02:27 |
| BlkSvr | bo_kane: tried it, for some reason half of it dosent install and the half that dose wont go into the gnome menu. | 02:27 |
| bo_kane | hm | 02:27 |
| BlkSvr | bo_kane: pretty much, but the dev did a horrible job of it, its only good as a live cd. | 02:27 |
| bo_kane | yeah thats how most small projects are these days | 02:28 |
| bo_kane | pushing it out as fast as possible to foster interest in the project | 02:28 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: your best bet is to ask the developer what he did, because I think this is severely off-topic here in #ubuntu. | 02:28 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbien: its all the same as ubuntu as far as what im doing (package management) | 02:28 |
| adminewb | My lucid installation is behaving oddly: at random long intervals, my files&folders acquire emblems for no apparent reason, that can't be removed. Other emblems on these can be added/removed ok. Ring any bells anyone? | 02:28 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: just because it uses apt-get doesn't make it the same. | 02:29 |
| bo_kane | if this were facebook i would "like" that comment haha | 02:29 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbien: but using the same version of dpkg as 10.10 , the same synaptic manager, even the same software center dose. | 02:29 |
| DrMax | last update broke my nfs: dmsg has message "svc: failed to register lockdv1 RPC service (errno 97)" How do I fix this? | 02:30 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: it is still off topic as it isn't a official supported release. noone knows what the developer did when even such simple tasks as deinstalling packages doesn't work anymore. | 02:30 |
| bo_kane | so anyone know how to fix busybox boot issues? | 02:31 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbein: it dose work, ive had simpliar problem on ubuntu itself, apache is a "virtual package" or whatever. | 02:31 |
| BlkSvr | similar* | 02:31 |
| ubuntu_ | ok ubuntu wouldnt start after i installed along side win7, so I reformatted the drive ubuntu was on, grew it big again for win7, now when I boot I get something that says grub... using ubuntu on cd to get in here to find out what I need to do to remove grub and have my system boot into win7, btw I have no win7 cd...... help | 02:31 |
| === putra is now known as wirabumi | ||
| BlkSvr | ubuntu_, grub overwrit your bootloader, if you get rid of it, you wont be able to boot at all. | 02:32 |
| bo_kane | ive had a couple reboots where ive loaded up into busybox and afterwards cannot get past basic boot scripts on both normal and rescue boots | 02:32 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: like I said, that's broken. there is no apache package in the official repository. | 02:32 |

| Starminn | StevenX: http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2732/ubuntu_how_to_change_computer_name/ | 02:33 |
| bo_kane | delete your current install or make it smaller then use wubi to reinstall. windows sees it as an uninstallable program | 02:33 |
| bo_kane | stevenx, google | 02:33 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbein, nothing is broken, he used a differant source. As far as i know, changing sources dosent break anything unless your an idiot with it. | 02:34 |
| StevenX | thanks Starminn | 02:34 |
| Starminn | !google | bo_kane | 02:34 |
| ubottu | bo_kane: While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. | 02:34 |

| bytesaber | got an old dos box i added to my network. it's setup with a nic that supports netbeui. i'm running the Workgroups add-on for DOS. | 02:34 |
| bo_kane | okay | 02:34 |
| bytesaber | can ubuntu run samba supporting netbuei ? | 02:34 |
| Starminn | bo_kane: Or if you have to be sarcastic, then at least LMGTFY them. ;) | 02:34 |
| bo_kane | there is this program called wubi | 02:34 |
| bo_kane | IKNOWRIGHT | 02:35 |
| bo_kane | i love that | 02:35 |
| bo_kane | anyways | 02:35 |
| Jasonn | BlkSvr: He is not saying that it would break something, he is just saying that the packages are not fully, if at all supported by canonical/ubuntu, so we cant provide support - therefore its offtopic | 02:35 |
| bo_kane | wubi is a program you can use on windows to install ubuntu variants onto your harddrive AS windows programs | 02:35 |
| bo_kane | so, | 02:35 |
| exar | DrMax: errno 97 is EAFNOSUPPORT and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1431118 says you can disable ipv6 to make the message go away | 02:35 |
| bo_kane | if something goes wrong, you just hop on over to winblow$ and uninstall as you wish | 02:35 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: different source = not ubuntu anymore = not supported here | 02:35 |
| BlkSvr | jasonn: but you CAN provide support for your offical package manager, which is not broken or tamperd with, and is simply giving an error it would give with a virtual package from the main repo. | 02:36 |
| DrMax | exar : hmm thx... so NFS stopped supporting IPv6 suddently? | 02:36 |
| BlkSvr | if i knew of such a package i would lay it down for you, and with 35 thousand + packages, there probably is one in there. | 02:36 |
| DrMax | well, rpc/portmap | 02:36 |
| bo_kane | its also helpful in that you can set the size of the ubuntu install, however, the max is 30gb, which is a bit of a limiting factor but sounds good for you in that you want to keep windows larger | 02:36 |
| BlkSvr | as such it IS supported by this session. | 02:36 |
| BlkSvr | NOW. may we stop stalling for time and pushing this off, and put our heads together to help a fellow member of the community. | 02:37 |
| bo_kane | Was that helpful, ubuntu_ ? | 02:37 |
| Abhijit | hi | 02:37 |
| Abhijit | if i installed libreoffice .deb form their website then i will not get automatic updates for it, right? | 02:37 |
| exar | DrMax: I just did a quick google search of your error message. I don't know what caused the error to start popping up for you. Sorry. | 02:37 |
| BlkSvr | this should be an issue of what is and isnt yours to help with, this should be the issue of a member in trouble, and as such it is your obligation, nay your duty, to help such a member if you are a person who is inclined to do so. | 02:37 |
| bo_kane | correct | 02:37 |
| bo_kane | if you WANT updates, install the ppa as per their instructions | 02:38 |
| bo_kane | personally, i would add it as they update more often than the ubuntu project | 02:38 |
| Abhijit | bo_kane, 'whose' instruction? i only found that on omgubuntu. | 02:38 |
| Starminn | !who | bo_kane | 02:38 |
| ubottu | bo_kane: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 02:38 |
| ChogyDan | BlkSvr: I think the virtual message is misleading you. It just means that it isn't installed. You are going to have to remove those menu links through a means other than apt-get I think | 02:38 |
| BlkSvr | now, can we stop pushing off things we dont know about, and learn together about the system we use. | 02:38 |
| coz_ | Abhijit, probably better to find a PPA for it | 02:38 |
| DrMax | exar : last kernel upgrade | 02:38 |
| Abhijit | coz_, yeah okay | 02:38 |
| coz_ | Abhijit, but as I recall...doing it your way there were update | 02:38 |

| * Abhijit is newer!!! | 02:39 | |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: then use 'dpkg -S <filename>' to find out what package it belongs to | 02:39 |
| Abhijit | :P | 02:39 |
| Jasonn | BlkSvr: you are getting the package/update from a third party - its like getting a ford car, getting the motor on the black market, and complaining to ford that it doesnt work | 02:39 |
| ChogyDan | BlkSvr: you gotta ask the dev how s/he is managing that icon. S/he may not have used a package | 02:39 |
| coz_ | Abhijit, I dont recall using the deb from their site and how it updates but I do recall it updating somehow buts its been a while since I tried again | 02:39 |
| bo_kane | well i google it for you, abhijit, BlkSvr | 02:39 |
| bo_kane | oops | 02:39 |
| bo_kane | http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/10/install-libreoffice-ppa-ubuntu/ | 02:39 |
| bo_kane | there you are | 02:40 |
| Abhijit | bo_kane, no i found it already. | 02:40 |
| bo_kane | wow... | 02:40 |
| DrMax | exar : so I'm a bit puzzled since the only thing I did was apt-get update/upgrade, reboot ... I did not change configurations manually | 02:40 |
| BlkSvr | ChogyDan, which is lovely because the dev is dead as far as i know. never responds to e-mails. | 02:40 |
| Abhijit | coz_, ok then i go for ppa | 02:40 |
| Abhijit | bo_kane, thanks | 02:40 |
| coz_ | Abhijit, hold on I think there is an "official" ppa looking now | 02:40 |
| bo_kane | no problem | 02:40 |
| bo_kane | just make sure you do a sudo apt-get update | 02:40 |
| bo_kane | BEFORE you try to add libreoffice | 02:40 |
| coz_ | Abhijit, here you go https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ppa | 02:41 |
| bo_kane | coz_, hes good | 02:41 |
| Starminn | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibreOffice | 02:41 |
| Abhijit | coz_, ok | 02:41 |
| Abhijit | ok | 02:41 |
| BlkSvr | Jezz, support teams are worse then warrenties... you change one little thing... "NOT OUR PRODUCT, GO AWAY!" ... >.< | 02:41 |
| halitus | Hi all can i do a server install from a desktop iso? or just a minimal install and install what i need or remove what i dont etc? | 02:41 |
| Abhijit | this is my new system and now i cant ctrl shift v - that is paste - to terminal~! | 02:41 |
| Abhijit | help | 02:41 |
| bo_kane | halitus, try ubuntu JeOS | 02:42 |
| bo_kane | its EXTREMELY lightweight, and can easily be run from a virtual box application | 02:42 |
| Starminn | halitus: http://www.ubuntu.com/server | 02:42 |
| coz_ | Abhijit, mm that's odd,, this is ubuntu 10.10 ? | 02:42 |
| BlkSvr | Abhijit, check your keyboard layout | 02:42 |
| adminewb | Lucid is behaving oddly: at random long intervals, some files&folders acquire emblems for no apparent reason, that can't be removed. Other emblems on these can be added/removed ok. Ring any bells anyone? | 02:42 |
| Abhijit | coz_, lucidc 6 bit | 02:42 |
| halitus | the only reason i ask is because my banwidth is low | 02:42 |
| Abhijit | BlkSvr, its usa | 02:42 |
| halitus | and dont want to download another iso | 02:42 |
| bo_kane | abhijit, yaquake and tilda packages allow you to use a key binding to open terminal | 02:42 |
| BlkSvr | Abhijit, hmm, no idea then. | 02:42 |
| bo_kane | ah i see, halitus | 02:43 |
| Abhijit | bo_kane, not to open the terminal, to paste to terminal | 02:43 |
| coz_ | Abhijit, doest ctrl+alt work with other keybindings? | 02:43 |
| Starminn | halitus Well look at the link I gave you and see what is there and what isn't there compared to Desktop. | 02:43 |
| Abhijit | BlkSvr, ok | 02:43 |
| bo_kane | oh abhijit i see | 02:43 |
| coz_ | Abhijit, rather shift + ctlr | 02:43 |
| halitus | Starminn, cheers will do | 02:43 |
| Starminn | halitus: That way you can use your Desktop .iso and make it exactly like a server | 02:44 |
| coz_ | Abhijit, are you running compiz? | 02:44 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: pastebin 'dpkg -l apache*' and we can tell you what part of it you still have installed | 02:44 |
| Abhijit | coz_, i dont done anything. its new system. | 02:44 |
| Firefishe | I'm running 10.04 Lucid. I recently set up my wireless to use openDNS on a specific wireless network. I deleted all the information, but it still seems to be using openDNS to filter things I don't want filtered. Is there a way to reset my entire, system-wide resolve.conf so that it's like a fresh install? | 02:44 |
| halitus | Starminn, yeah i thought that would be the case but how do i limit what gets installed while im installing it? | 02:44 |
| Abhijit | :-o | 02:44 |
| Abhijit | coz_, | 02:44 |
| Abhijit | coz_, shift ctrl worked!!!!!!!!!!!! | 02:44 |
| Abhijit | :-) | 02:44 |
| coz_ | Abhijit, there you go | 02:44 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbein: just did that 30 second ago, had to > /root/Desktop/list it. theres alot. | 02:45 |
| Starminn | halitus: I don't think you can. Maybe the alternate CD? But that'd be another download. | 02:45 |
| halitus | hmm fair enough ill jsut give it a ago | 02:45 |
| bo_kane | if its avaialble why not just pay for a server hosted by someone else? | 02:45 |
| ubuntu_ | bo_kane: ima dumbass when it comes to this stuff.. I installed ubuntu along side win7 a week back selecting half my hard drive. ubuntu has never worked, when I would try to select it from the menu I would get kernel panic -- not syncing VFS unable to mount root fs on unknown block 0.0 and tried to figure that out in here... a week later in an attempt to just forget ubuntu, I used gparted to format the drive back to ntfs, then grew it, now I get grub | 02:45 |
| ubuntu_ | > thats it... need to fix mbr, dont have recovery cd so thats my story | 02:45 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: then do 'dpkg -l apache* | grep ii' | 02:45 |
| Starminn | halitus: If you can, I'd do that server and you're done inmstantly but if not, just do what you wanted to do. | 02:46 |
| bo_kane | ah i see | 02:46 |
| bo_kane | ubuntu_, see if you can delete all ubuntu/grub stuff from inside win7 | 02:46 |
| === CaptHowdy_ is now known as CaptHowdy | ||
| bo_kane | and if you still want ubuntu use wubi | 02:46 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: or even better 'dpkg -l *apache* | grep ii' | 02:47 |
| exar | ubuntu_: if you can get to windows 7, try EasyBCD http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1 | 02:47 |
| Starminn | bo_kane: Windows has issues seeing Linunx filesystems. He'd be better off using a LiveCD. | 02:47 |
| ubuntu_ | cant get into win7, thats my problem, using ubuntu live cd to get in here | 02:47 |
| Mios | I need some help. I am trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit on an AMD64 computer, yet I don't seem to understand partitioning for it. I do not want to erase my entire hard drive. | 02:47 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbein, you mean grep i right? not ii. | 02:47 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: no, I mean 'ii' | 02:47 |
| bo_kane | starminn, it sounds like he needs to remove ubuntu to give priority to win7 | 02:47 |
| BlkSvr | i get nothing/ | 02:47 |
| bo_kane | in which case he can do that via simple win7 partition tools | 02:47 |
| Mios | I had 32 bit on my desktop, and it's install process was great. I do not know how to partition this one correctly to not screw it up. | 02:48 |
| Abhijit | bye | 02:48 |
| BlkSvr | :/ * | 02:48 |
| bo_kane | if i am understanding properly | 02:48 |
| Starminn | Mios: For Ubuntu you need an ext* partition mounted at "/" (root) and a 2GB swap. | 02:48 |
| BlkSvr | Mios: WAIT | 02:48 |
| Mios | I know this. I dont... *Waits* | 02:49 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: that means that you don't have anything installed with apache in it's name | 02:49 |
| bo_kane | Mios: if youre feeling ambitious, you can try zfs ^.^ | 02:49 |
| BlkSvr | mios: whats your ram, make your swap be 2 times the size of your ram. | 02:49 |
| ChogyDan | ubuntu_: I would just reinstall Ubuntu. Grub needs a few files on the Ubuntu install to function, and unless you can reinstall the win7 bootloader, you are stuck with grub, eh? | 02:49 |
| Mios | My RAM is 3 GB. I shall make a 6 gig Swap file. | 02:49 |
| Mios | And why try zfs? | 02:49 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbein: then why did i get such a big list for dpkg -l apache* ? | 02:49 |
| francesco_ | you can use bootrec.exe to restore the mbr | 02:49 |
| bo_kane | because of its speed | 02:49 |
| BlkSvr | nvm i got somthing | 02:49 |
| bo_kane | and its just interesting and cool to mess around with, not to mention geek cred | 02:50 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: because that also lists uninstalled, but available packages | 02:50 |
| BlkSvr | but only when i used i | 02:50 |
| BlkSvr | not ii | 02:50 |
| exar | Mios: do you want to overwrite the 32-bit Ubuntu installation with the 64-bit Ubuntu installation? | 02:50 |
| Mios | Geek cred or compatibility. | 02:50 |
| Mios | Do want the latter. | 02:50 |
| bo_kane | Mios: sounds like its gonna be a reinstall then | 02:50 |
| Mios | I just got this laptop, which is 64 bit. The 32 bit is on my desktop. I do not want to overwrite Windows 7. | 02:50 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbein: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/574260/ | 02:50 |
| nichos | hi all, im trying to boot my system using the amd64 10.10 disc, when i boot it says "can not mount /dev/loop0" and drops me to busy box. I've tried setting the HD to ACHI, raid and ide, all the same results'\ | 02:50 |
| Lanh | Hi, I wonder if someone can point me in the direction of a fix, "passwords and encryption keys" isn't opening when I click it from the preferences menu in Ubuntu 10.10, and I can't figure out why. Any ideas? | 02:50 |
| bo_kane | i dont think you can just upgrade from 32 to 64 | 02:50 |
| Firefishe | How do I reset my DNS servers to use whatever the ISP I'm on is using? I want to stop using openDNS. | 02:51 |
| bo_kane | gotta run | 02:51 |
| bo_kane | bye all | 02:51 |
| Mios | I know it's a reinstall, I just got this laptop... 7 hours and 30 minutes ago. | 02:51 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: that's a list of packages that are not installed. | 02:51 |
| alisalaah | Firefishe, usually if you remove opendns and just leave it on default it will use that | 02:51 |
| alisalaah | Firefishe, opendns may be setup from the router not just on the comp | 02:51 |
| ChogyDan | Firefishe: how did you install it? | 02:52 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbein: Hmm looks like my gut is wrong ill gedit the .desktop file to see wheres it calling the shots from | 02:52 |
| exar | if you are using the Ubuntu installer, you should be able to have it automatically resize your windows 7 partition on the new laptop with a pretty slick GUI | 02:52 |
| blkdg | hi, i am using ubuntu 10.10 , latest patches applied. when i connect a sansa clip player, RHYTHMBOX sees it , and i can eject it from there. Why doesn't it show up on my desktop like when i plug in a lacie drive, or a sd card ? | 02:52 |
| Mios | I am using the Installer. The GUI seems to be replaced with a "HEY! YOU NEED SKILLZ TO DO THIS!" for this one. | 02:52 |
| Ampelbein | BlkSvr: read up on 'man dpkg-query' to find out why you want ii. | 02:52 |
| nichos | Did i download the wrong version?? | 02:52 |
| Mios | I, however, do not remember my skillz to do that. | 02:52 |
| Firefishe | alisalaah: That might explain why I can't get to certain sites, but I seem to remember I was able to get to them before I started using the openDNS name server addresses. The thing is, I've deleted everything from all files previously changed. | 02:52 |
| Mios | The z is unnecessary, I know. | 02:52 |
| exar | Mios: well even if you have to manually partition, the process is not that hairy | 02:53 |
| alisalaah | Firefishe, check your router's dns settings | 02:53 |
| BlkSvr | Ampelbein: Mabey later, gotta get this system running tonight. If i dont , tommorow all hell breaks lose. | 02:53 |
| alisalaah | usually 192.168.1.1 or 0.1 | 02:53 |
| Firefishe | alisalaah: This is a public wi-fi area. | 02:53 |
| Mios | Hooray, I just noticed GParted. | 02:53 |
| alisalaah | Do they use OpenDNS? | 02:53 |
| Firefishe | alisalaah: I don't know. | 02:53 |
| alisalaah | or you were abel to on tehir wifi before you chnaged to opendns? | 02:53 |
| Firefishe | alisalaah: Yes, at least, I believe so. | 02:53 |
| exar | Mios: but there should be a 3-radio-button list where the options are the equivalent of: 1. Install Ubuntu alongside other operating systems, 2. Blow everything else away, and 3. Manually partition | 02:54 |
| Mios | Exar, there are two options. Delete Frakkin' Everything, and Specify Partitions Manually. | 02:54 |
| Firefishe | alisalaah: How can I tell what DNS server is being used on the network right now? | 02:55 |
| blkdg | if ubuntu automounts devices, would they all appear as icons on the desktop? | 02:55 |
| BlkSvr | Mios: Then getcha geeky glasses on and read about partitions, your about to learn how computer software devides physical media :) | 02:55 |
| nichos | hi all, im trying to boot my system using the amd64 10.10 disc, when i boot it says "can not mount /dev/loop0" and drops me to busy box. I've tried setting the HD to ACHI, raid and ide, all the same results'\ | 02:55 |
| alisalaah | Firefishe, http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/05/howto-use-opendns-on-ubuntu.html | 02:55 |
| alisalaah | Firefishe, that tutorial has some good step by steps | 02:55 |
| alisalaah | Firefishe, maybe yo ucould try Google DNS servers, but use that ttorial to find it | 02:56 |
| exar | Mios: weird. well, specify partitions manually. Right-click the biggest the NTFS partition, select change, and change the size of the partition | 02:56 |
| alisalaah | or leave blank to deaults should use the providers DNS | 02:56 |
| Mios | Doing so, Exar. | 02:56 |
| agustinyanu | he | 02:56 |
| BlkSvr | Okay, time to strip this (inset saucy curse word here) | 02:56 |
| BlkSvr | insert* well that typo ruined it. | 02:56 |
| BlkSvr | brb, gotta reboot this and chroot in, time for the fun part. | 02:56 |
| panfist | if i'm compiling a program that's not in the repos where should i put the source folder | 02:56 |
| th0r | panfist: it usually goes into /usr/local/src | 02:57 |
| exar | panfist: ~/CODEZ | 02:57 |
| blkdg | nichos, just a stab in the dark, but did you check the iso against a md5 ? | 02:57 |
| Mios | Exar, does Pastebin have an equivalent to an image hosting thing? It seems that I have no ability to resize anything. | 02:57 |
| blkdg | panfist, in your home dir. | 02:57 |
| adminewb | Lucid/GNOME is behaving oddly: at random long intervals, some files&folders acquire emblems for no apparent reason, that can't be removed. Other emblems on these can be added/removed ok. Ring any bells anyone? | 02:57 |
| Firefishe | alisalaah: Just read it. I read something similar on openDNS's site. I've deleted the `prepend ... | 02:58 |
| Firefishe | blasted fingers ;) | 02:58 |
| Mios | This would be easier for me if I was able to provide screenshots. | 02:58 |
| blkdg | panfist, once you've compiled, make, make install (or whatever) you can del the source dir | 02:58 |
| panfist | blkdg what if the program is a service, why would i put it in my home dir? i know it's just the source, but still | 02:58 |
| exar | Mios: that must be why the installer didn't have an option to install alongside other operating systems | 02:58 |
| exar | it had already figured out it couldn't resize the partition | 02:59 |
| Mios | So I am screwed? | 02:59 |
| exar | try booting live and using gparted | 02:59 |
| Mios | I am in live. | 02:59 |
| blkdg | panfist, get the source, untar it in your home dir, enter the newly made dir, compile, exit the dir rm that dir. | 02:59 |
| exar | oh | 02:59 |
| exar | do you have it mounted? | 02:59 |
| Firefishe | alisalaah: Just read it. I read something similar on openDNS's site. I've deleted the `prepend ...' stuff from /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf, as well as openDNS's name servers from the wireless account in the lan/wlan manager, so maybe the isp uses it, anyway. | 02:59 |
| Mios | Nope. | 02:59 |
| th0r | panfist: if you put it in /usr/local/src you can use it to 'make uninstall' later. Always a good idea to keep the src even after the executable is installed | 02:59 |
| BlkSvr | yeeehaa, are you ready for it? time to do every Linux haters dream. | 03:00 |
| panfist | yeah i dont know why people are recommending to put it in home and delete it... i've screwed up too many systems doing crap like that | 03:00 |
| panfist | thanks th0r | 03:00 |
| panfist | blkdg i appreciate the suggestions, too | 03:01 |
| blkdg | panfist, if you can see yourself recompiling for extra compile time features / optimization, then keep the source. it should be small in relation to the binary that you're making | 03:01 |
| Mios | OH. The largest partition is NTFS, does that make a difference? | 03:01 |
| Firefishe | alisalaah: There was one step that had me do this: `cp /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.auto -- What does that do, exactly? | 03:01 |
| th0r | panfist: old thinking knows what /usr/local is all about; new thinking (ubuntu) says to keep out of / and do everything in /home | 03:01 |
| exar | yeah Ubuntu can resize NTFS no problem | 03:01 |
| panfist | i think make uninstall is the best part and i had no idea that was even possible before | 03:01 |
| Mios | Merda. I can't figure out what is messed up. D: | 03:01 |
| exar | panfist: it's not always possible -- it depends on the package | 03:01 |
| Firefishe | exar: I'd also have 'em defrag the NTFS side before having gparted resize it, too. | 03:02 |
| panfist | yeah i guess the package would have to implement an uninstall script | 03:02 |
| exar | yes that is safer, Firefishe | 03:02 |
| Mios | Firefishe, I got the system 7 hours ago, there is very little to defrag. | 03:02 |
| exar | panfist: just an uninstall target in the Makefile usually, but some don't | 03:02 |
| Firefishe | Mios: @ yer pleasure, and/or risk, then, brotha! ;) hee | 03:02 |
| blkdg | panfist, there's nothing you can screw up by rm'ing a source dir. think about it, worst case, you use more bandwith and get it again. /home is the safest place to compile | 03:03 |
| exar | Mios: if you exit the installer and make sure the NTFS partition is not mounted (disk utility or just type mount at a prompt) you can see if gparted will let you resize it | 03:04 |
| Mios | Alright. | 03:04 |
| panfist | blkdg: maybe i'm not a typical ubuntu user; i don't want to be safe, i want to learn as much as i can about system administration. | 03:05 |
| Firefishe | brb | 03:05 |
| panfist | i'm doing this with the objective of learning how to manage a multiuser multihost environment | 03:05 |
| exar | Mios: disclaimer: I'm not an op or official Ubuntu support or anything. I've been in this channel for about an hour. I came here to ask a question about bridging wireless networks, but at this point I don't think this is the right place for it. | 03:06 |
| Mios | Yeah, I've been disappointed by Ubuntu support before, but I figure it's the best place. Trolls in the tubes can screw up your system when you are trying to install stuff. | 03:07 |
| blkdg | panfist, linux users are inherently safe. ubuntu users are linux users ... | 03:07 |
| milamber | Mios: what is the issue? | 03:08 |
| milamber | !screenshot | Mios | 03:08 |

| Mios | It won't let me partition my main drive to install Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit. | 03:09 |
| milamber | Mios: are you running a live cd? | 03:09 |
| Mios | Yes. | 03:09 |
| panfist | blkdg: if you were going to install a program that's a service that could potentially be accessed by many users and hosts... | 03:09 |
| panfist | you would seriously untar to home, install and delete the source? | 03:09 |

| afman | Hey if you want a program to run as an root from the GUI menu how do you go about getting Ubuntu to do that? IE if I want to run soemthing like wireshark without having to open up terminal how would that work? | 03:11 |
| exar | Mios: try rebooting and run the installer directly instead of live | 03:12 |
| Mios | milamber: http://imagebin.org/140711 | 03:12 |
| exar | see if the friendly resize option shows up | 03:12 |
| panfist | blkdg: well you're going to have to do more to convince me than just say '/home is the safest place to compile' | 03:12 |
| milamber | Mios: brb | 03:12 |
| duongthaiha | Mios: r u trying to dual boot ?? | 03:13 |
| blkdg | panfist, think about it: grab x.tar.gz, un tar it, enter x, read the README, probabbly do a make , make install, then once it's compiled and installed, I would DELETE the source. why on earth would i keep it??? | 03:13 |
| Mios | duongthaiha: Yes. | 03:13 |
| exar | Mios: hehe that looks bad | 03:13 |
| exar | Mios: does your partition have some kind of transparent encryption? | 03:13 |
| Mios | I don't know. I have 7 on that one. | 03:13 |
| duongthaiha | Mios: how many partion in the harddrive that you have | 03:13 |
| Firefishe | what would happen if I manually delete /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/resolv.conf.auto ? | 03:13 |
| Mios | 4. | 03:13 |
| exar | duongthaiha: Mios posted a screenshot | 03:14 |
| duongthaiha | Mios: ohh can you use automatic partition | 03:14 |
| Mios | No I can not duongthaiha | 03:14 |
| duongthaiha | exar: sorry just join the forum | 03:14 |
| duongthaiha | Mios: do you need all 4 partition? | 03:14 |
| panfist | blkdg: because space is probably the cheapest resource in your computer? why not keep it? | 03:14 |
| blkdg | panfist, one other thing, compiling a 'service' is the same as compiling an app. the make will dictate where things go unless there are compile time flags which let you over ride. | 03:15 |
| Mios | I most likely do not, duongthaiha | 03:15 |
| dingo | why cant i reboot properly ? right now i am using the live disk to access this because i cant access my computer any other way ... every time i attempt to reboot my system with ubuntu 10.10 installed it takes me to a grey config screen with a blue background and it asks me to select a language ... but it wont accept any key commands ... therefore i open my cd tray (from the tower) place this disk in the tray close and shutdown ... then i wait and turn it | 03:15 |
| dingo | back on and it will let me reinstall but when i go to reboot later on (after the install) i have to go through the process all over again ... i am very tired of reinstalling so many times and i just want it to be fixed | 03:15 |
| blkdg | panfist, so you want to mirror every version / revision of said package? | 03:15 |
| duongthaiha | Mios: you have a very small ntfs sda3 | 03:15 |
| cmol | am have used microsoft visio on my windows, but what tool like visio on ubuntu 10.10 any body can help me... | 03:15 |
| duongthaiha | Mios: if you dont use them then delete it | 03:16 |
| Mios | Alright | 03:16 |
| exar | I would be wary of that | 03:16 |
| === lrs is now known as lrs__ | ||
| duongthaiha | Mios: make sure you check if you need anything in that partition | 03:16 |
| panfist | blkdg: well, it depends on the package how much i would keep, but if it's huge than re-downloading can be a pain too...i like to collect things | 03:16 |

| Mios | I plan to check | 03:16 |
| duongthaiha | exar: if that was used oem then normally it at the beginning the the harddrive | 03:17 |
| panfist | blkdg: but you are right, service or app it really doesn't matter for the source... | 03:17 |
| duongthaiha | exar: sda3 is somewhere at the middle which is a strange thing to have anyway | 03:17 |
| blkdg | panfist, so then apply the same rule you just stated to where the compile occurs | 03:17 |
| blkdg | panfist, /home ... | 03:17 |
| exar | if you boot into windows to check, look at the administrative tools / computer management / disk management to see wtf is going on with your main windows partition | 03:18 |
| exar | if it's encrypted or compressed or something | 03:18 |
| Mios | SDA3 is my recovery partition. | 03:18 |
| panfist | blkdg: i just think for a multi user system, if i was going to keep it at all, why my own home dir... | 03:18 |
| Firefishe | Mios: You could always wipe the entire drive, repartition manually an NTFS side and a ext4 (or what-have-you) side, then install ubuntu and then windows to their specific locations manually. | 03:18 |
| Mios | Do not want to get rid of that. | 03:19 |
| duongthaiha | Mios: okie no problem can you give us a better screen of your harddrive | 03:19 |
| exar | Firefishe: if this is a newer laptop, it can be a pain to get the drivers right for Windows | 03:19 |
| blkdg | panfist, i would hazard a guess and say most people might keep kernel source, and that's seriously about it. | 03:20 |
| milamber | Mios: how's the manual working out? | 03:20 |
| Firefishe | exar: Well, if MIos's laptop came with a driver-recovery cd, there you go ;) | 03:20 |
| exar | the manufacturer-installed operating system is usually filled with bloatware but the drivers are all the correct versions installed in the correct order | 03:20 |
| exar | yeah I'm just saying it can be a crap shoot | 03:20 |
| blkdg | panfist, how multiuser ready is ubuntu? | 03:20 |
| duongthaiha | Mios: I had the similar problem when i install my ubuntu. I have to use gpartition to shink some space | 03:20 |
| th0r | panfist: in a multiuser system there are often several admins with access to the system. They would all have access to /usr/local, but would not have access to each other's /home | 03:20 |
| blkdg | good point th0r | 03:21 |
| mouse | I'm having a hard time doing a remote desktop to a windows 7 machine. I tried it with rdp and vnc and nothing has worked. Any idea why? | 03:21 |

| syrinx_ | dingo: whats the situation | 03:22 |
| dingo | ahh | 03:22 |
| mouse | duongthaiha, Just that it can't connect. exar, is port forwarding done on my side or theirs? | 03:22 |
| dingo | syrinx ; i cant reboot | 03:23 |
| exar | mouse: theirs | 03:23 |
| syrinx_ | dingo: ok.... | 03:23 |
| mouse | exar, What do they have to do? | 03:23 |
| exar | mouse: if they are behind NAT (a firewall) then they have to forward the server port to their server host | 03:23 |
| dingo | i printed it all up a bit if you dont mind scrolling its pretty involved | 03:23 |
| exar | dingo: are you taking the CD out after installation? | 03:24 |
| dingo | exar : yes | 03:24 |
| mouse | exar, How would they do that? | 03:24 |
| duongthaiha | mouse: ask them to forward port 3389 | 03:24 |
| exar | mouse: router configuration | 03:24 |
| syrinx_ | dingo: dual boot or no? | 03:25 |
| duongthaiha | mouse http://portforward.com/ | 03:25 |
| dingo | syrinx; no | 03:25 |
| Mios | Crap. The small HP_TOOLS partition apparently contains my BIOS. | 03:25 |
| duongthaiha | mouse: this is a very good website for port fowarding | 03:25 |
| Mios | That's asinine. | 03:25 |
| blkdg | dingo, wireless keyboar or mouse? | 03:25 |
| dingo | blkdg: no on both | 03:26 |
| mouse | duongthaiha, exar, Ah I think that makes sense now. What happens if the person is at a university and doesn't have access to the router? | 03:26 |
| exar | Mios: I doubt it's your actual BIOS, but I would keep it around | 03:26 |
| duongthaiha | mouse: haha just forget it then university normally dont allow those thing | 03:27 |
| Mios | The problem is that I have 4 partitions. The others I am paranoid of getting rid of | 03:27 |
| blkdg | dingo, and it accepts all commands during the install procedure? | 03:27 |
| jilt | how to register my name with irc/ | 03:27 |

| apoage | hi just one question about wifi usb card is possible it will work in master mode (like Aces Point / AP) under ubuntu/linux while manufacturer says it works under windows in software AP mode .. no exactly sure what it means but just if someone has any idea | 03:28 |
| drc | jilt: /join freenode and ask there | 03:28 |
| dingo | blkdg, yes its after install and during the next reboot after the intial that it messes up | 03:28 |
| duongthaiha | Mios: should be ok my have 5 | 03:28 |
| mouse | duongthaiha, Yeah I was afraid of that. She went home for the weekend and I assumed that would be the perfect time but it still didn't work even after disabling the firewall. I didn't think to mess with the router at her parent's house. | 03:28 |
| drc | jilt: err... /join #freenode and ask there | 03:28 |
| duongthaiha | Mios: if you have a default small fat partition then leave it it normally oem | 03:29 |
| blkdg | dingo, standard 32 / 64 bit install, not a server or a netbook or an alternate? | 03:29 |
| Firefishe | What is the command for looking up a domain name's ip numbers? | 03:29 |
| duongthaiha | Mios if there in any thing with recover name also leave it | 03:29 |
| duongthaiha | Mios: then shink some space from the windows partition | 03:29 |

| Mios | The SYSTEM partition seems to contain a folder containing BOOT/en-US/bootmgr.exe.mui (And in the same folder memtest.exe.mui) and System Volume Information, along with a bootmgr file.

| duongthaiha | penemue: install guest addition | 03:35 |
| syn-ack | penemue, Install the Guest tools | 03:35 |
| matt-vaio | penemue, use the virtualbox that is supplied on the website, not OSE | 03:35 |
| matt-vaio | OSE sucks. | 03:35 |

| Mios | No I can not, Duongthaiha. | 03:38 |
| blkdg | dingo, just rereading your original question. so you insert cd, boot, select install, wait, and then reboot with the cd in? | 03:39 |
| exar | Mios: I really think you should try to resize the big 280GiB partition | 03:39 |
| Mios | I have tried, Exar | 03:39 |
| broculis | hello | 03:39 |
| Mios | It will not let me. | 03:39 |
| duongthaiha | Mios: any error when you do it it windows? | 03:39 |

| Mios | Even Gparted won't do it. | 03:39 |
| dingo | blkdg, no the cd is long out of the tray by then ... | 03:39 |
| matt-vaio | Mios, it might not work if you are running a partitioner inside linux or using unetbootin on the drive | 03:39 |
| matt-vaio | it will lock it for safety | 03:40 |
| Mios | I am using a partitioner in a liveCD | 03:40 |
| matt-vaio | and stay mounted. try using gparted on a flash... | 03:40 |
| matt-vaio | oh, | 03:40 |
| Mios | And I have a bunch of warnings on it | 03:40 |

| blkdg | dingo, when folks grab disk image of ubuntu (*.iso) then should check that it downloaded properly by comparing the md5 checksum that ubuntu provides against the one that the downloader creates on their system. it allows the downloader to make sure the .iso is not corrupt | 03:46 |
| Mios | see | 03:46 |
| matt-vaio | it's the unity bar. | 03:46 |

| SwedeMike | qq1: it means you're trying to boot off of the wrong device. | 04:27 |
| qq1 | how can i fix it? | 04:28 |
| syrinx_ | qq1 did you google it? | 04:28 |
| witeshark | does the new FF need a full reboot? | 04:28 |
| qq1 | i did a lot but i couldnt figured it out | 04:28 |
| arrrghhh | hey all, i have a 10.10 install but grub2 picks up 2 windows OSes. for whatever reason the recovery partition is also picked up | 04:28 |
| arrrghhh | how can i disable it? i can remove the entry, but i assume next time os-prober runs it'll just pick it back up | 04:29 |
| syrinx_ | arrrghhh: so? | 04:29 |
| mouse | witeshark, Firefox? Why would you have to reboot for firefox? | 04:29 |

| mouse | witeshark, That's my current version. | 04:30 |

| phix | hey, any way to disable NetworkManager? | 04:33 |
| phix | Or add in static content to it? it is really starting to annoy me | 04:33 |
| witeshark | first i tried the older Ubuntuzilla to update, that's gone so I added ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable to your system's Software Sources | 04:33 |
| exar | phix: right click, edit connections | 04:33 |
| exar | phix: to disable it for an interface, add entries for that interface in /etc/network/interfaces | 04:34 |
| witeshark | then ran update manager but 2.6.14 did not replace 2.6.13 | 04:34 |
| exar | phix: edit connections will let you set static MAC/IP settings though | 04:34 |
| xangua | firefox-stable ..... that says it everything witeshark | 04:34 |
| phix | exar: hmmmm, it still shows up 3G connection and bridging doesn't relly work with it | 04:35 |
| exar | phix: Sorry. I've never messed with 3G interfaces in Linux. | 04:36 |
| mouse | I actually wasted 4 seconds cause I had to read it twice. | 04:36 |
| witeshark | xangua, i don't see what you mean, do i need to replace the panel launcher? | 04:37 |

| phix | exar: ok, well any way it would be nice to disable NetworkManager or have some level of control over it, which interfaces to ignore or whatnot | 04:38 |

| phix | Gibss37: why would you want to do that though? | 04:42 |
| Ep1kMalware | Gibss37: give easus a look | 04:42 |
| Gibss37 | phix: because the grub loader is giving problems with windows 7 ? | 04:42 |
| __Logan__ | s/easus/Easeus | 04:43 |
| phix | Gibss37: but you can do that, just use a partition resizing / merging application like Partition Magic or partimage to do it then wipe the MBR | 04:43 |
| Ep1kMalware | __Logan__: you forgot the trailing slash. not that it matters. | 04:43 |
| phix | Gibss37: I havn't experienced grub causing issues with Windows 7 | 04:43 |
| phix | Gibss37: I dual boot on this computer | 04:43 |
| Ep1kMalware | phix: why whipe the mbr, what if his primary (likely is) is windows. | 04:44 |
| Gibss37 | phix: when ever i log on to windows 7 after that, when i restart, a black screen says "no module found...........No operating system found" | 04:44 |
| Gibss37 | phix: then i have to reinstall ubuntu each time | 04:44 |

| Ep1kMalware | do you have a boot-based recovery utility such as gag or UBCD to give back to windows that charming master bewt record. | 04:57 |
| dingo | blkdg, if you are still here i just wanted to say thanks because it seems to have worked | 04:57 |

| DSpair | I have an application I have written which is highly multithreaded. When I look at the memory use of that application it shows it to be about 10x what I would expect.

| needhelp1 | giiker, yeah, that looks like it will work | 05:08 |
| h0rnman | perhaps a different way to phrase this then: does anyone know why I would get boot time errors that my /boot partition is corrupt (bad superblock: magic number wrong), but a manual fsck after the bootup fsck has been bypassed shows the partition as clean? | 05:08 |
| bullgard | undecim: Yes. | 05:09 |

| nezZario | maybe I got a bad image file? | 05:24 |
| fallguy | I will look... i can see it recognizing my Sansa mp3 player.. should i unplug that while the Ipod it plugged in? | 05:24 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: unplug and plugin your ipod, and re-enter dmesgt | 05:25 |
| Ep1kMalware | dmesg* | 05:25 |
| Ep1kMalware | you should see some lines exclusive to your ipod | 05:25 |
| fallguy | OK i | 05:25 |
| dylan85 | any one? | 05:25 |
| fallguy | I'll try that | 05:25 |

| robbmunson | fallguy, type dmesg | 05:27 |
| leo1379 | dmesg i think | 05:27 |
| fallguy | ok | 05:28 |
| robbmunson | yes dmesg | 05:28 |
| Ep1kMalware | dmesg | 05:29 |
| nezZario | well that's amazing | 05:29 |

| pepe__ | alguien habla espanol? | 05:34 |
| Ep1kMalware | Gibss37: no problem, you're all set. | 05:35 |
| Ep1kMalware | you can also use those same 2 utilities to add another parition os should you wish to dual boot again. | 05:35 |
| Ep1kMalware | Gibss37: if you decide to dual boot agian. do NOT reinstall the linux boot loader. Simply install, go back to easybcd and select linux ;) | 05:36 |
| fallguy | EM - anything I can do, or am I screwed? I got aTunes up and running, but it isn't finding the connected Ipod either | 05:36 |
| Ep1kMalware | it'll give you a choice on which os you wish to boot shortly after you power up your machine ;) | 05:36 |
| Ep1kMalware | (easy to remove as well) | 05:36 |

| === andrew_ is now known as Guest80448 | ||
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: there are some similarities between bsd and linux I can exploit. when it announced your ipod | 05:38 |
| Ep1kMalware | it should have a device entry | 05:38 |
| Ep1kMalware | (something 0) | 05:38 |
| fallguy | hmmm ok... all greek to me im afraid | 05:38 |
| Ep1kMalware | alright type dmesg > dmesg.txt | 05:39 |
| Ep1kMalware | then open up dmesg.txt and upload it to pastebin.com :D | 05:39 |
| fallguy | ok | 05:39 |
| Ep1kMalware | meanwhile, I'll do a quick google search while you're doing that. | 05:40 |

| Bollweevill | FreeNAS has a Channel, but no one's awake..and this room is alive, anyone have experience with it? | 05:42 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: knowledge is built through experience. Consider this a learnign experience with linux. | 05:43 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: wouldn't be an ipod nano would it? | 05:44 |
| [TK]D-Fender | Kevin_: Natty will be coming with LibreOfice instead of OpenOffice. LO also has more advancements at this point and looks like a trend that is likely to continue. I ight suggest going that route | 05:44 |
| fallguy | Yeah... everything is a learning experience with Linux ;) hahaha | 05:44 |
| [TK]D-Fender | might* | 05:44 |
| fallguy | No, it is a Ipod Touch | 05:45 |
| fallguy | I just uploaded the dmesg stuff to pastebin | 05:45 |
| Ep1kMalware | alright | 05:47 |
| Ep1kMalware | if you do.. | 05:47 |
| kevin_ | [TK]D-Fender, k, I will try LibreOffice, thanks for tip | 05:48 |
| Ep1kMalware | let's start with ls /media | 05:48 |
| Ep1kMalware | do you see an entry for an ipod? | 05:48 |
| [TK]D-Fender | checkout time, later all | 05:48 |
| fallguy | ok hold on | 05:49 |
| fallguy | i just typed 'ls /media' and nothing | 05:49 |
| Ep1kMalware | alright. | 05:49 |
| Ep1kMalware | makes sense | 05:49 |
| Ep1kMalware | lemme check | 05:50 |
| fallguy | ok thanks again! | 05:50 |
| Ep1kMalware | if it's anything like bsd you should have something in /dev that we can use to mount it manually. | 05:50 |
| fallguy | That owuld be great | 05:50 |
| fallguy | what is BSD btw? hahaha | 05:51 |
| Ep1kMalware | also, when you plug it in, it gives the "connected" icon on your ipod screen yes? | 05:51 |
| fallguy | No.. i don't even get that on my screen | 05:51 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: http://www.freebsd.org/ http://www.pcbsd.org/ | 05:51 |
| Ep1kMalware | ooh | 05:51 |
| fallguy | there is no feedback from the pc at all that i have plugged anythign in | 05:51 |
| fallguy | it does charge the Ipod tho | 05:51 |
| Ep1kMalware | there may not be untill it's mounted. | 05:52 |
| Ep1kMalware | lemme look | 05:52 |
| Ep1kMalware | there should be a device that'll mount it for you. | 05:52 |
| Ep1kMalware | if that fails.. we dig more :) | 05:52 |
| fallguy | ok | 05:52 |

| Secrets | hi | 05:57 |
| Secrets | i need help for some reason when i start up ubuntu the internet is not working | 05:57 |
| Secrets | how do i fix it | 05:57 |
| Starminn | How can I make Maverick a portable Linux? | 05:57 |
| giiker | ok | 05:57 |
| madfox | Starminn, just burn the image to a usb or cd | 05:57 |
| fallguy | Ok just posted it to pastebin | 05:57 |
| Ep1kMalware | alright | 05:58 |
| Ep1kMalware | what is the url. | 05:58 |
| fallguy | http://pastebin.com/xe4NfrhA | 05:58 |
| Ep1kMalware | 1 sec | 05:58 |
| kurtis | Here's the results of my lspci, lsmod, and iwconfig ... but the Network Manager says "Wireless is not enabled". When I enable it, it says "Device not ready" | 05:58 |
| kurtis | http://pastebin.com/a0h3Z9Nn | 05:58 |
| Starminn | madfox: Not a LiveCD, I've done that a dozen and a half times. (Not really a half -- I'm being facetious) I'm talking about a legitimate Portable Linunx. "PortableLinux" doesn't seem to support even Lucid, so I'm wondering if there is anything that can allow me to do so with Maverick. | 05:59 |
| Secrets | also how do i reinstall the internet on ubuntu | 05:59 |
| kurtis | Secrets: What do you mean by "reinstall the internet"? | 05:59 |
| Alexander_ | Hey guys, what is the command to restore defaults on the upper toolbar? | 06:00 |
| Alexander_ | The wireless signal Icon dissapeared. | 06:00 |
| Secrets | because its not working | 06:00 |
| Starminn | !resetpanel | Alexander_ | 06:00 |
| ubottu | Alexander_: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 06:00 |
| Alexander_ | wait so what do I type? | 06:00 |
| Starminn | Alaxander_: Oh, if it's just that it's mroe simple than that | 06:00 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: alright, we got an entry for "mass storage device". | 06:00 |
| Secrets | so how do i fix it | 06:00 |
| Ep1kMalware | what all do you have attatched via usb? | 06:00 |
| Secrets | my internet is wired and its not connecting | 06:01 |
| fallguy | yahoo | 06:01 |
| kurtis | Secrets: Are you using WIFI or Ethernet? (Wireless or Cabled) | 06:01 |
| fallguy | that's progress at least | 06:01 |
| Starminn | Alexander_: Right-click the panel, "Add to Panel..."->Notification Area | 06:01 |
| JDM_SOHC | Is there an xbox 360 IRC chat? | 06:01 |
| Ep1kMalware | let's hope so, though it could be a usb thumbdrive, or another media player | 06:01 |
| fallguy | I just have that and a wireless mouse USB attachment | 06:01 |
| kurtis | Secrets: ahh okay. Do you have DSL/Cable Internet or are you using something different like a modem? | 06:01 |
| Ep1kMalware | let's remove the false positives | 06:01 |
| fallguy | I could unplug that and go with a wired mouse if you want | 06:01 |
| Ep1kMalware | alright sweet | 06:01 |
| Ep1kMalware | nope | 06:02 |
| Ep1kMalware | you're good | 06:02 |

| bazhang | Ep1kMalware, watch the language | 06:02 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: lemme check | 06:02 |
| kurtis | What am I missing? I didn't see him use bad language or flood | 06:02 |
| Alexander_ | q do i change languages? | 06:02 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: there should be a device entry around here somewhere for it. | 06:03 |
| fallguy | no other storage... well there is a external hard drive but it is not plugged in terms of AC power | 06:03 |
| fallguy | ok | 06:03 |
| madfox | Ep1kMalware, floodbot is a bot :/ silly you | 06:03 |
| Starminn | kurtis: If you send a lot of messages quickly then the FloodBot(s) will pick up and yell at them. The language was his acronym. DOn't worry about it, though. ;) | 06:03 |
| Starminn | Alexander_: I know on the login screen you can. Not sure if you can afterwards, though. | 06:04 |
| JDM_SOHC | anyone know if theres an xbox 360 IRC? | 06:04 |
| kurtis | ahh okay :) I didn't realize it was just an auto trigger on a flood bot | 06:04 |
| Starminn | JDM_SOHC: This is the channel for Ubuntu support. If you have a qustion relating to that, then ask it. If not, ask in a channel more appropriate for your question. | 06:04 |
| kurtis | Should I stick around here and try to find help with my AR5001 Wifi Adapter or head over to Freenode? I haven't been to an Ubuntu channel in a while. | 06:04 |
| Starminn | JDM_SOHC: If you're not sure of a channel to ask in, then just try #freenode. They should be able to answer or at least properly redirect you. | 06:05 |
| Starminn | kurtis: Yeah, we have 3 of them I think. Regarding asking your question, why not both? ;) (I don't know anything about Wifi though, so don't count on me to answer) | 06:05 |
| Ep1kMalware | alright | 06:06 |
| fallguy | ok | 06:06 |
| Ep1kMalware | this is interesting | 06:06 |
| Ep1kMalware | try | 06:06 |
| kurtis | Starminn: haha. Well I asked it here but in all of the chatter, it was either lost or un-help-able (ignored) | 06:06 |
| Ep1kMalware | sudo mount /dev/sdb1 | 06:06 |
| Secrets | my internet is wired and its not connecting | 06:07 |
| kurtis | Stairminn: Thanks though! I'll give Freenode a shot. | 06:07 |
| fallguy | ok | 06:07 |
| Starminn | kurtis: Try again every so often. As long as you're not asking everytime it disappears off the screen we don't care. Just ask after it seems pretty far gone in the conversation. ;) | 06:07 |
| Ep1kMalware | did it return an error? | 06:07 |
| Starminn | kurtis: Yep. And if they don't know they'll be able ot show you where. | 06:07 |
| fallguy | Says it can't find it | 06:07 |
| Ep1kMalware | ah | 06:07 |
| kurtis | Secrets: I tried to help you out but you didn't answer. What kind of an internet connection do you have? (DSL, Cable Internet, etc...) | 06:08 |
| fallguy | mount: can't find /dev/sdb1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 06:08 |

| kurtis | I'm just having a problem connecting with my wifi. The Network Manager reports that Wifi is not enabled, I enabled it and not it says "Device not ready". I have some info here: http://pastebin.com/a0h3Z9Nn | 06:08 |
| fallguy | ok | 06:08 |
| Ep1kMalware | it's been a while since I've worked with fstab, while back I had a gnarly external drive.. | 06:09 |
| Ep1kMalware | let me read the man page | 06:09 |
| Ep1kMalware | meanwhile, let's create a temporary mount folder | 06:09 |
| aarcane | help, I've got two different systems with two different wifi cards and both run ubuntu 10.10 up to date as of tonight. Neither will connect to my WPA2-EAP-TLS access point, however, both systems will connect fine from within windows 7 | 06:09 |
| kurtis | fallguy: Are you trying to auto-mount something on startup? | 06:09 |
| Ep1kMalware | do sudo cd /mnt || mkdir /mnt | 06:09 |
| fallguy | No... believe me, I dont even know how to auto mount! | 06:10 |
| aarcane | what can I do to diagnose and repair this ? | 06:10 |
| Ep1kMalware | kurtis: he's trying to get his ipod mounted | 06:10 |
| kurtis | oh ok | 06:10 |
| Ep1kMalware | but we're having trouble figuring out what the system is calling it, if at all. | 06:10 |
| kurtis | fallguy: Did you check this out already? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone | 06:10 |
| fallguy | mkdir: cannot create directory `/mnt': File exists | 06:10 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: ok that's good news :) | 06:11 |
| kurtis | aarcane: Run lspci and see what the chipsets are. Then google it | 06:11 |
| Ep1kMalware | I couldn't remember if linux has a /mnt folder or not. | 06:11 |
| fallguy | first time tonight ;) hahaha | 06:11 |
| aarcane | kurtis, they're two different chipsets exhibiting identical symptoms, I believe that rules out chipset specific. | 06:11 |
| Starminn | kurtis: Have you tried connecting it with a wired conenction and having it grab the drivers for you? | 06:12 |
| Secrets | how do i fix my problem | 06:12 |
| Secrets | its annoying | 06:12 |
| kurtis | aarcane: Not nessasarily. I've had trouble getting 3+ WIFI Chipsets working right in Ubuntu without a bunch of hacks/manual work | 06:13 |
| Secrets | it all of a sudden stoped working | 06:13 |
| Starminn | Ep1kMalware: It does have a /mnt folder, but it seems to use /media as its default mount point stuff. | 06:13 |
| Ep1kMalware | Starminn: right on. | 06:13 |
| Starminn | Secrets: Ask again, all on one line, that way people can help you more easily. | 06:13 |
| Secrets | i don't know what happend maybe i deleted a drive if thats the case how do i get it back | 06:13 |
| Secrets | my internet is wired and its not connecting | 06:13 |
| Ep1kMalware | Starminn: I like /mnt for testing device mounts :) | 06:14 |
| Secrets | on ubuntu | 06:14 |
| kurtis | Starminn: haha yeah :) I'm actually using it right now, wired. I've googled and read a ton of stuff but it either should "Just work", "Will magically start working" or ... there's a few remedies that don't help | 06:14 |
| kurtis | Secrets, I tried to help you but you're not answering my question. | 06:14 |
| fallguy | it's a real puzzle.. the ubuntu page makes this out to be a snap | 06:14 |
| Starminn | Ep1kMalware: Yeah, I was going to say that if I had to guess for a reason it even has /mnt to begin with is because it's what people are used to. *shrug* | 06:14 |
| Secrets | i was eating | 06:14 |
| Secrets | thats why | 06:14 |

| kurtis | Secrets: Type "ifconfig" in your command line and look for the section starting with eth0. It should tell you if you have an IP address | 06:19 |

| ubottu | Ep1kMalware: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 06:20 |
| Secrets | it shows | 06:20 |
| Starminn | !tab | Ep1kMalware | 06:20 |
| ubottu | Ep1kMalware: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 06:20 |

| Secrets | now what | 06:21 |
| fallguy | special device /dev/sdc does not exist | 06:21 |
| Starminn | Ep1kMalware: If you would please, listen to ubottu. ;) | 06:21 |
| Ep1kMalware | Starminn: I'm right about to /ignore it actually | 06:21 |
| kurtis | Secrets: Weird. That means it's not picking up your ethernet card. One second... | 06:21 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: try doing sudo /dev/sdc1 /mnt | 06:21 |
| fallguy | ok | 06:21 |
| Secrets | it said for the first line link encap:local loopback | 06:21 |
| kurtis | Secrets: Type in this exactly (case-sensetive): lspci | grep Ethernet | 06:22 |
| fallguy | sudo: /dev/sdc1: command not found | 06:22 |
| Ep1kMalware | snap | 06:22 |
| Ep1kMalware | my bad | 06:22 |
| fallguy | thats ok | 06:22 |
| Ep1kMalware | sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt | 06:22 |
| Starminn | Ep1kMalware: I would advise against that. I would say it would be easier to simply type "fal [TAB]" "message in a cohesive, readable sentence" than to fight me on this one. | 06:22 |
| fallguy | i really do appreciuate the help | 06:22 |
| fallguy | ok | 06:22 |
| kurtis | Secrets: That should tell you if you have any identified Ethernet cards in your system | 06:22 |
| Starminn | Ep1kMalware: Please and thank you | 06:22 |
| fallguy | mount: special device /dev/sdc1 does not exist | 06:23 |
| Ep1kMalware | Starminn: I'd rather not have a bot highlight me multiple times for a stupid typo. | 06:23 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: that's interesting, it says here that they do. | 06:23 |
| fallguy | hmmm | 06:24 |
| Ep1kMalware | 3 of them, which should make sense, by the looks of things the ipod needs to be mounted 3 times. | 06:24 |
| Ep1kMalware | I'm thinking sdc should be your ipod. | 06:24 |
| Secrets | typed it in | 06:24 |
| kurtis | Secrets: Did it output anything? Or just a blank line? | 06:24 |
| Secrets | it has red | 06:25 |
| fallguy | that would make sense | 06:25 |
| Secrets | yeah it shows stuff | 06:25 |
| kurtis | fallguy: If you guys can't get it figured out, let me know and I'll try to help. I'd have to start from the beginning though | 06:25 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: ok, let us try the file system itself then. | 06:25 |
| kurtis | Secrets: okay cool. that's good. Can you tell me the type of ethernet card that came up? (along with the model) | 06:25 |
| Ep1kMalware | do sudo mount /dev/sdc2 /mnt | 06:25 |
| fallguy | Thanks! EM is really trying Kurtis! We just can't find a way for the ipod to be recognized in any way shape or form by the desktop pc | 06:25 |

| fallguy | I'll unlock it | 06:27 |
| kurtis | fallguy: Yeah, unlock it | 06:27 |

| fallguy | Banshee is not recognizing it either | 06:31 |
| fallguy | OK should i still do that sudo mount command, EM? | 06:31 |

| kurtis | fallguy: Oh man :( that's no good. I'm not really sure at this point to be honest ... Since it's not really a mount-able device, it's more of a IO hack kinda thing as far as I can tell. | 06:54 |

| hot_wheelz | kurtis yeah maybe but don't u find it anoying to have togo check all the time though when a new version gets released?...Or is it just me? | 06:58 |
| kurtis | fallguy: Umm try running apt-get update first | 06:58 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: at least now we know what causes your problem to exist. | 06:58 |

| fallguy | E: The update command takes no arguments | 07:01 |
| Ep1kMalware | fallguy: what if you do supder apt-get install libimobiledevice | 07:01 |
| hipitihop | Assid, no idea what your problem is, but I find wicd works really well, have you tried that ? | 07:01 |
| Ep1kMalware | oops, s/supder/sudo/ | 07:01 |
| Assid | i really dont like wicd | 07:01 |
| kurtis | fallguy: Yeah, "apt-get update" just updates your package database, and then "apt-cache show <packagename>" gives you info about the package. To upgrade your package, you can type "apt-get upgrade". Of course sudo that stuff | 07:01 |
| hipitihop | Assid, you prefer network manager ? | 07:01 |
| Assid | yep | 07:01 |
| fallguy | ok im getting lost now | 07:02 |

| gahf | Hello I installed a new graphics card, a 570GTX 1280MB by "Gigabyte". Ubuntu still won't recognize the card and I can't find any drivers for it. In addition when I use System>Administrator>hardware drivers it comes up with drivers for my old graphics card. can anyone help me get new drivers and make ubuntu accept them? | 07:15 |
| kurtis | fallguy: Well that's good. At least we know you have the latest package. That was EM's concern | 07:15 |
| kurtis | gahf: If your old card was Nvidia as well, it's probably the same drivers | 07:16 |
| IdleOne | jussi: that user has the same host as the one just banned | 07:16 |
| fallguy | yes, as i said earlier, i just downloaded and installed all this stuff for the first time today, so I was pretty sure it was the latest versions. | 07:16 |
| gahf | krtis it doesn't | 07:16 |
| iRabbit | blue_pearl, cli sudo update-grub | 07:16 |
| Ep1kMalware | kurtis: if he has the package, and it's completely upgraded. then the only other obstruction I can see is perhaps maybe the ipod is locked with a password/pattern of some sort. | 07:16 |
| kurtis | gahf: You could try going to Nvidia's site and using their drivers. They have Linux (probably Debian but maybe Ubuntu) | 07:17 |
| Ep1kMalware | i.e. needs somebody to sign into the device. | 07:17 |
| blue_pearl | iRabbit, ok i ran it | 07:17 |
| fallguy | never had a password lock on this ipod touch, and disabled the autolock feature... it's on it's normal home screen as it is plugged in right now. | 07:17 |
| gahf | krutis where? | 07:17 |
| gahf | krutis it doesn't work | 07:17 |
| iRabbit | blue_pearl, reboot and let me know if it's back | 07:17 |
| kurtis | Ep1kMalware: Yeah ... I don't really know. Someone could take him through watching the logs as he plugs in the device and stuff but it's going to be a lot of debugging | 07:18 |
| kurtis | gahf: Goto nvidia.com | 07:18 |
| Ep1kMalware | kurtis: if it where FreeBSD I'd be more knowledgable there. | 07:18 |
| blue_pearl | iRabbit, here is the output if it helps anyway http://paste.ubuntu.com/574324/ | 07:18 |

| Secrets | kurtis | 07:31 |
| MohammadAG | blue_pearl, sudo mount /dev/$block /media/$block | 07:31 |

| MohammadAG | replace $block with your dev node | 07:31 |
| MohammadAG | sda1 i guess? | 07:31 |
| kurtis | rigved: Well I got this: kernel/drivers/net/e1000/e1000.ko ... but I wouldn't know how to tell him the insmod command since that's just a relative path | 07:31 |
| SealedWithAKiss | rigved, I have already been advised to run 'sudo update-grub' and it did not resolve my problem. I will see the PM. | 07:31 |
| llutz_ | rigved: modprobe -l just lists available modules | 07:31 |
| kurtis | llutz_: Thank you | 07:31 |
| gahf | llutz_ what do i do? | 07:32 |
| kurtis | gahf: What are you trying to accomplish? Hardware 3d? | 07:32 |

| Secrets | kurtis | 07:44 |
| SealedWithAKiss | rigved, I don't know which /dev/sda the MBR is. | 07:44 |
| kurtis | Secrets: I dunno ... was this computer working fine before you installed Ubuntu? | 07:44 |
| Secrets | yeah | 07:44 |

| Secrets | its a laptop | 07:45 |
| kurtis | Secrets: ahh okay. That's weird it's not working all of the sudden. It seems like a hardware problem to me | 07:45 |
| MohammadAG | perhaps iRabbit knows | 07:45 |
| blue_pearl | MohammadAG, ok. will reinstalling the grub2 help in any way? | 07:45 |

| kurtis | Secrest: but I'm not the expert here so take that with a grain of salt | 07:45 |
| Secrets | it | 07:46 |
| rigved | SealedWithAKiss: did you carry out the earlier steps? did you mount your filesystem and typed this in the terminal - mount | tail -l | 07:46 |
| MohammadAG | grub doesn't seem to be broken on your system | 07:46 |
| kurtis | Secrets: Not that I could really help you with. Sorry. You'd have to take it apart and hope that it's something simple and easy .... you could always buy a USB Network Adapter | 07:46 |
| blue_pearl | MohammadAG, ok will try out chkdsk with xp cd....going to reboot now | 07:46 |

| iRabbit | MohammadAG, I know what now? | 07:47 |
| SealedWithAKiss | rigved, before I began following the tutorial I mounted /dev/sda7 to /mnt - I was considering chrooting into the partition to attempt the re-installation there. | 07:47 |
| MohammadAG | iRabbit, if there's a way to run chkdsk without booting windows, anyway, he quit, for now | 07:48 |

| iRabbit | MohammadAG, probably need to boot a recovery disk to do it | 07:48 |
| recognosco | Thrawn: use wicd or network-manager | 07:49 |
| MohammadAG | yeah, that's what I suggested | 07:49 |
| rigved | SealedWithAKiss: you are trying to install grub to a partition other than the MBR. that's nto advisable as you cannot boot into ubuntu unleass you specifically start grub | 07:49 |
| Thrawn | where can i set that in network manager? | 07:49 |
| llutz_ | gahf: cannot help you with that, i don't use any of those proprietary drivers | 07:49 |
| rigved | SealedWithAKiss: sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda --recheck | 07:49 |
| kurtis | Holly Crap ... I spent the last 2 days working on my WIFI and all I had to do is run rfkill :( | 07:49 |
| Thrawn | recognosco: where can i switch wlan off in network manager | 07:50 |
| kurtis | Is there somewhere I can post that solution to my problem for Ubuntu 10.10? | 07:50 |
| llutz_ | gahf: seems it still uses the old nvidia-driver, try to deinstall it to use the free nouveau driver then. read wiki/forums how to do that (i have no clue about that) | 07:50 |
| rigved | kurtis: in the ubuntuforums. post is as a howto. but make sure that a similar post is not already existing | 07:51 |
| SealedWithAKiss | rigved, installation completed no errors reported. Reboot? | 07:51 |
| recognosco | Thrawn: or just do - sudo ifconfig wlan0 down | 07:51 |
| jiltdil | !fstab | 07:51 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 07:51 |

| rigved | SealedWithAKiss: reboot into the ubuntu on the hard disk. then run in the terminal - sudo update-grub. then you can boot into XP as well | 07:52 |
| Thrawn | recognosco: after typing sudo ifconfig wlan0 down | 07:53 |
| gahf | Does anyone here know how to uninstall nvidia drivers? | 07:53 |
| recognosco | Thrawn: you want to tuen the device off? there is a switch for it on your computer? | 07:53 |
| recognosco | Thrawn: or just uninstall the driver :D | 07:53 |
| SealedWithAKiss | rigved, I'm now in my Ubuntu partition, it booted immediately into it. There was no GRUB menu though. | 07:53 |
| Thrawn | recognosco: theres no entry of a wlan connection because im not connected to any, so i dont see anything to uncheck there | 07:54 |
| rigved | SealedWithAKiss: now run in the terminal - sudo update-grub | 07:54 |
| Thrawn | recognosco: i dont want to disable wlan just turn it off ^.- i still need it at times -. | 07:54 |

| Thrawn | recognosco: kk nevermind, thx for hlp anyway | 07:55 |
| SealedWithAKiss | rigved, it isn't recognising Windows 7 it has added my old Vista entry again. That entry was manually created a while ago. Whenever GRUB updates it appears to keep including it. | 07:55 |
| SealedWithAKiss | rigved, or at least that's what I think it's doing. Reboot? | 07:55 |
| Thrawn | recognosco: my wlan is on but i want it off because it eats battery. sudo ifconfig wlan0 down didnt work | 07:56 |
| SealedWithAKiss | rigved, any particular key combination I need to press to display the GRUB menu? | 07:56 |
| llutz_ | webczat: use tsocks | 07:56 |
| rigved | Thrawn: right-click on the network icon. Enable Wireless should be enabled. Click on that. It'll disable your WLan. | 07:56 |
| nit-wit | SealedWithAKiss, have you run this script and posted here. http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ | 07:56 |

| i4ba1 | rigved what do you mean check the pm? | 08:02 |
| rigved | !fixmbr | i4ba1 | 08:02 |
| ubottu | i4ba1: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 08:02 |
| llutz_ | webczat: man tsocks ( LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/libtsocks sudo apt-get cmd....) | 08:02 |
| rigved | i4ba1: use the RestoreGrub link | 08:02 |
| SealedWithAKiss | rigved, the GRUB menu displayed an old entry for Vista. Selecting this entry caused GRUB to take me into Windows Boot Loader. That displayed an error message saying \NST\AutoNeoGrub0.mbr was missing or corrupt. | 08:02 |
| SealedWithAKiss | rigved, why would Windows Boot Manager mention GRUB? | 08:03 |
| rigved | SealedWithAKiss: win 7 has it's own boot partition. grub should have booted into that | 08:03 |
| bobweaver | what is the ubuntu achieve mirror directory for 11.04 powerpc+ps3?Anyone know ? | 08:03 |
| rigved | SealedWithAKiss: you did mention that you had made manual boot entries in windows. maybe that's what it was showing. | 08:04 |
| SealedWithAKiss | rigved, indeed using an application called EasyBCD. I suppose it isn't the concern of an Ubuntu channel anymore. | 08:04 |
| StuckMojo | drat, doesn't seem to be in there | 08:05 |
| rigved | SealedWithAKiss: wait. open System > Administration > Disk Utility | 08:05 |
| StuckMojo | i'm pretty sure you can do it | 08:05 |
| rigved | SealedWithAKiss: can you see the 100 MB win 7 boot partition? | 08:05 |
| StuckMojo | i suspect it's some global-ish setting that probably affects the kernel build system in general | 08:06 |
| SealedWithAKiss | rigved, I see a 206 MB Ext3 boot partition. | 08:07 |
| rigved | SealedWithAKiss: no, that not the one. it should be a 100 MB partition, just before the Win 7 partition | 08:08 |

I think the Win 7 cd provides a repair option. try that to create the Win 7 100 MB boot partition. then use the restore Grub method to install grub. boot into ubuntu, run update-grub. then you should be fine. you should be able to boot into both OSs. this is the setup i have (but both ubuntu and windows have their own hdd, :) ) | 08:15 |

| nixxer | hey, how can i prevent unclean dismounts when my laptop dies? | 09:36 |

| juk | nixxer: jeez, just run halt as root | 09:37 |
| nixxer | _automatically_ | 09:37 |
| visual1ce | ctrl \ | 09:37 |
| nixxer | as in, i'm not here, my dog trips over the cord, my laptop dies, i'm up a creek again | 09:37 |
| juk | nixxer: seriosly? | 09:37 |
| iflema | gage_bw: i say go for it (10.04) just make a little backup of ya documents and media.. there wont be much :P | 09:37 |
| visual1ce | thx | 09:37 |
| nixxer | it's not for me, it's for a client, is there a way or not lol | 09:38 |
| Polysics | hello | 09:38 |
| gage_bw | My system doesn't meet the reqs of 10.10, but I'm still searching for 9.04's reqs | 09:38 |
| gage_bw | so I can see if it meets *those* | 09:38 |
| karla | nixxer, yeah shutdown or suspend to disk on low battery would be nice | 09:38 |
| th0r | nixxer: how are you going to know when the dog trips over the cord? | 09:38 |
| juk | nixxer: ok, explain what is automatically | 09:38 |
| Polysics | interesting problem i have | 09:38 |
| nixxer | automatically | 09:38 |
| Diverdude | _jesse__, well how do i clear out the cache? and how do i increase the size of the APT::Cache-Limit? | 09:38 |
| Polysics | one of my users on a 10.04 server sometimes loses his password! | 09:38 |
| nixxer | as in, battery level gets to 5%, it halts itself | 09:38 |
| sipior | nixxer: you could plug into acpi events to see if the machine is running on battery power, and then have your script issue a shutdown. | 09:39 |
| nixxer | .... | 09:39 |
| Polysics | as in, i set his password, he logs in ok, the next day, teh same password does not work | 09:39 |
| Fwb2700 | Hello | 09:39 |
| gage_bw | er, 8.10 | 09:39 |
| Polysics | i set his password with "sudo passwd username" | 09:39 |
| Polysics | nothing special, i have no idea what is happening | 09:39 |
| nixxer | he's typing it wrong. | 09:39 |
| Polysics | nixxer: i tried logging in too, to no avail | 09:40 |
| nixxer | what happens? | 09:40 |
| froschi_ | Polysics: you're typing it wrong | 09:40 |
| Polysics | i even set a simple password just to test, impossible to type it worng | 09:40 |
| Polysics | password invalid | 09:40 |
| nixxer | unset shell? | 09:40 |
| Polysics | if i reset it to the SAME password with passwd, it works | 09:40 |
| froschi_ | Polysics: you use ssh from another machine? | 09:40 |
| Polysics | can't get "123456" wrong | 09:40 |
| nixxer | you just said you used passwd | 09:40 |
| Polysics | froschi_: ubuntu 10.04 VPS server | 09:40 |
| nixxer | sudo messes up passwd | 09:40 |
| nixxer | don't sudo with passwd | 09:41 |
| llutz_ | Polysics: be sure, users can | 09:41 |
| _jesse__ | Diverdude: apt-get clean | 09:41 |

| Diverdude | _jesse__, that did not help anything | 09:42 |
| patrick_ | exit | 09:42 |
| poobird | poobird: yay | 09:42 |
| Polysics | froschi_: i tried "su user" and logging in as the user to no avail | 09:42 |
| Polysics | must be something about the user's shell, but tbh i have no idea on where to look | 09:42 |
| poobird | you use sudo for ubuntu | 09:42 |
| Polysics | poobird: not if you want to be asked for the password | 09:42 |
| juk | nixxer: see what is in, ls /proc/acpi/battery and watch it, when 5% do halt | 09:43 |
| Fwb2700 | poobird: Why are you talking to yourself?? | 09:43 |
| poobird | poobird: its fun | 09:43 |
| Fwb2700 | Any from nz on? | 09:43 |
| froschi_ | Polysics: well, you're doing it wrong :/ | 09:44 |
| _jesse__ | Diverdude: you can change it in /etc/apt/apt.conf | 09:44 |
| _jesse__ | the cache limit, that is | 09:44 |
| Polysics | froschi_: all i need to know is that, reasonably, nothing is changing my password | 09:44 |
| juk | !nz | Fwb2700: | 09:44 |
| ubottu | Fwb2700:: nz is the New Zealand LoCo Team has a channel at #ubuntu-nz | 09:44 |
| llutz_ | nixxer: you're using gnome? | 09:44 |
| Polysics | if nothing is changing my passwords, i will just blame it on the user | 09:44 |
| iflema | gage_bw: i see positive remarks about it and 10.04.see no complaining about speed.. but i do see slight variation across the one model... so?? i still say 10.04... | 09:44 |
| Fwb2700 | Juk: thanks | 09:44 |
| llutz_ | nixxer: there are settings in powermanagement acting on low battery | 09:44 |

| gage_bw | iflema: considering 10.04 anyway..long term and probably more stable | 09:45 |
| anarchist | well if you use keys with ssh the user cannot fuckup :-) | 09:45 |
| Polysics | i will tell him to upload his key and be done with it | 09:46 |
| gage_bw | I was trying to get an idea of whether 10.10 actually uses more ram, etc | 09:46 |
| seidos | 1 xor 0? | 09:46 |
| seidos | 1 | 09:46 |
| iflema | gage_bw: not as if you can duel boot =) | 09:46 |

| Starminn | anarchist: Keep it family-friendly, pelase. | 09:46 |
| Polysics | the guy is a very inexperienced person, that is why i am not fully believing him | 09:46 |
| gage_bw | iflema: i can't, yeah | 09:46 |
| froschi_ | Polysics: you can make a copy of /etc/shadow and compare the hashes, if somthing changed the pw/hash. and check for something in /etec/passwd too | 09:46 |
| juk | Fwb2700: well im not from nz | 09:46 |

| visual1ce | where are the little indicator icons stored? | 09:47 |
| gage_bw | iflema: I only have a spare 2G drive..not sure it's big enough | 09:47 |
| visual1ce | like the little envelope | 09:47 |
| iflema | gage_bw: it is | 09:47 |

| ubottu | visual1ce: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 09:47 |
| Polysics | froschi_: i would not know either, i never tweaked auth on any of my installs | 09:48 |
| froschi_ | Polysics: i think it's normal. not sure if only editors do that backup stuff or the normal 'passwd' does too though... | 09:48 |
| gage_bw | iflema: that's great, then. i'll certainly try it...although it'll be slower running from the flash drive anyway | 09:48 |
| seidos | elfing | 09:48 |
| Polysics | i think i will give chrootkit a go | 09:49 |

| seidos | juk: already talking in ubuntu-offtopic. where else? | 09:50 |
| Starminn | visual1ce: Again, what exactly is your problem? Is the envelope missing? | 09:50 |
| visual1ce | i dont have a problem - the envelope is fine. im playing with appindicator.py and adding an indicator. but i don't want the messages indicator | 09:51 |
| seidos | visual1ce: metta? | 09:51 |
| Starminn | visual1ce: So you want indicator message gone? | 09:51 |
| Starminn | visual1ce: sudo apt-get remove indicator-messages | 09:51 |

| Diverdude | _jesse__, ? | 09:53 |
| gage_bw | Well, according to this, 10.10 or 10.04 shouldn't be significantly slower, even with half a gig of ram | 09:53 |
| Starminn | gage_bw: I ran 10.10 on this computer with 512MB RAM for a month | 09:53 |
| gage_bw | Excellent | 09:54 |
| Starminn | gage_bw: I didn't have any problems whatsoever. Obviously when I added 4GB it was a bit speedier, but it wasn't a stark difference or anything. (Windows, on the other hand...) | 09:54 |

| visual1ce | thx starminn | 10:09 |
| gage_bw | iflema: er, what are those boxes? | 10:10 |
| iflema | gage_bw: openbox and fluxbox are light weight window managers for ubuntu (linux) | 10:11 |
| gungung | !grub2 > gungung | 10:11 |
| ubottu | gungung, please see my private message | 10:11 |
| gage_bw | iflema: Like X, or like gnome? | 10:11 |
| rigved | !gui | gage_bw | 10:11 |
| ubottu | gage_bw: The graphical user interface (GUI) in Ubuntu is composed of many elements, including the !X server, a window manager, and a desktop environment such as !GNOME or !KDE (which themselves use the !GTK and !Qt toolkits respectively) | 10:11 |
| iflema | gage_bw: rather minimal on features commpaired to gnome kde... | 10:12 |
| fidyduce | why does unetbootin not give the option to format the drive before an install? | 10:12 |
| Starminn | gage_bw: GNOME is the default, but for lightweight stuff you've got Xubuntu (Xcfe) and Lubuntu (Lxde). Openbox and Fluxbox are alternatives to the X Window Manager | 10:12 |
| iflema | gage_bw: more manual work/maintenance | 10:12 |
| gage_bw | righto | 10:12 |
| juk | !format | fidyduce | 10:12 |
| ubottu | fidyduce: For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/switching/installing-partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted, !QtParted (!Kubuntu 8.10 and lower) or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap | 10:12 |
| gage_bw | I've never had any big problems with gnome, so I'll stick with it for now | 10:13 |
| Starminn | gage_bw: It should be fine. Again, 512MB RAM for me and it ran fine. If it becomes a problem, though, feel free to try out Xubuntu which is similar to GNOME. | 10:14 |
| iflema | gage_bw: there is always scrotwm =) | 10:15 |
| gage_bw | yeah | 10:17 |
| gage_bw | it sucks that I have to upgrade my OS just to run irssi, though | 10:17 |
| gage_bw | unless... | 10:18 |
| iflema | gage_bw: debian allows you to apt-get -t unstable install blahblah.. not suyre about ubuntu | 10:18 |
| Starminn | gage_bw: http://irssi.org/download | 10:19 |
| gage_bw | already open ^^ | 10:19 |
| Starminn | http://svn.irssi.org/ (if the first doesn't suffice this might help) | 10:19 |
| gage_bw | Starminn: won't I have the same dependencies? | 10:21 |
| gage_bw | whichever way I do it | 10:21 |
| Starminn | No idea | 10:22 |
| Starminn | I see something potentially useful I give it to you. Beyond that? Well, it's past my bed time lol | 10:23 |

| HA1DFO | jussi, the swap is usually twice the ram | 11:19 |
| sagaci | i5 is more than enough | 11:19 |
| jussi | HA1DFO: yeah, thats what Ive been told, although with 4 gb, it seems like overkill. | 11:19 |
| HA1DFO | jussi, but it is more a convention than a rule. You won't allocate 180Gigs of disk for a node w/ 96G RAM :) | 11:19 |
| stanman246 | sagaci, even though c2q has 4 cores? | 11:20 |
| jussi | HA1DFO: now you are certain count is in KB? I dont want to write my whole hd :P | 11:20 |
| iflema | jussi: its used to be *hibernation* for the most part (out'da'box) will/would fail if swap file was used as opposed to swap partition.... things may have changed. If no hibernation required dont worry =) | 11:20 |
| sagaci | i5 is newer tech, it's not all about cores | 11:21 |
| jussi | iflema: yeah, I dont really have a choice :) | 11:21 |
| iflema | jussi: there are logical partitions... provided you can reconfigure ya setup | 11:21 |
| HA1DFO | jussi, yeah, just try with 1 and you will se the statistics at the end. the bs=1024 is blocksize of 1kilobytes. the count is how many of these block you want to write | 11:22 |

| depesz | hi. how can I create initial xorg.conf when my own is empty? | 11:30 |
| depesz | i remember there was some dpkg-reconfigure command with some options, but I can't seem to get it working | 11:31 |
| erUSUL | depesz: « sudo Xorg -confgure :1 » | 11:31 |
| depesz | erUSUL: that will create the xorg.conf ? why :1 ? | 11:31 |
| erUSUL | depesz: to make xorg use another display not the current one; it will fail. | 11:32 |
| erUSUL | s/will/would/ | 11:32 |
| depesz | erUSUL: current? i don't have x running. | 11:32 |
| erUSUL | depesz: then you can drop the :1 | 11:33 |
| ae0000 | is there a way of finding out the development path for different releases? ie. how can i find out if 10.04 LTS will upgrade php to 5.3.3? | 11:33 |
| erUSUL | ae0000: it wont | 11:33 |
| erUSUL | !latest | 11:33 |
| ubottu | Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 11:33 |
| depesz | erUSUL: didn't help. created xorg.conf.new, but it doesn't start x window with it :( | 11:34 |
| erUSUL | depesz: you have to copy it to /etc/X11/ | 11:34 |
| ikonia | depesz: the file has to be called /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 11:34 |
| ikonia | depesz: that path, that file name | 11:35 |
| depesz | erUSUL: or I xan X -config ..., but it still doesn't work. | 11:35 |
| erUSUL | depesz: by default it creates it in your home folder or root's | 11:35 |
| ae0000 | erUSUL: it wont upgrade to php5.3.3? or there is no path? | 11:35 |
| depesz | anyway - it created very complex xorg.conf, but the one that ubuntu usually has - very small, < 200 bytes. | 11:35 |
| erUSUL | ae0000: in a release only bug and security fixes are patched into packages. there are no version bumps | 11:35 |
| ikonia | depesz: don't worry about the differences | 11:35 |
| depesz | ikonia: ? but it doesn't start. | 11:36 |
| erUSUL | !backports > ae0000 | 11:36 |
| ubottu | ae0000, please see my private message | 11:36 |
| depesz | ikonia: i tried also dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xorg, but it doesn't create xorg.conf :( | 11:36 |
| ikonia | depesz: because you've not put it in the correct place with the correct name | 11:36 |
| ikonia | depesz: I've told you where to create the file | 11:37 |
| depesz | ikonia: i did. | 11:37 |
| depesz | ikonia: i tried both ways | 11:37 |
| ikonia | which way | 11:37 |
| ikonia | depesz: where is the file now and what is it's name | 11:37 |
| depesz | ikonia: the way "Xorg -configure" suggested (X -config /home/depesz/xorg.conf.new), and then your way - copied to /etc/X11/xorg.conf and tried to start X | 11:38 |
| ae0000 | erUSUL: OH. ok. thanks :) | 11:38 |
| erUSUL | ae0000: no problem | 11:38 |
| ikonia | depesz: ok, have you modified the /etc/X11/xorg.conf to match your machine's config ? | 11:38 |
| anurupr | anyone used iw before?? | 11:38 |
| ikonia | anurupr: iw ? | 11:39 |
| depesz | ikonia: no. i ran Xorg -configure, and it made the .conf file | 11:39 |
| ikonia | depesz: ok, then that is default, you need to modify it to meet your machines needs | 11:39 |
| depesz | ikonia: from quick look inside it looks more or less ok. | 11:39 |

| depesz | ikonia: yes. | 11:47 |
| ramcar | i'm a first-timer on linux and just installed ubuntu. it's great!!! | 11:47 |
| ikonia | depesz: my first way of looking at it would be to configure xorg to start just one card/one screen, then do the same for the other, make sure they are both working and you have a sane ocnfig | 11:48 |
| ikonia | config | 11:48 |
| sagaci | ramcar, thanks - we know :) | 11:48 |
| depesz | ikonia: there is only one screen. and the logs seem to suggest than neither of the drivers work :( | 11:48 |
| depesz | ikonia: alternatively - is there any console based way to install in manageable way nvidia binary drivers? | 11:49 |
| ikonia | depesz: why are you using 2 cards if you have 1 screen ? | 11:49 |
| ramcar | i do have a question though. it's my first time to use open office and i was wondering how i could add a background video that would play throughout the presentation? maybe someone here could point me in the right direction? :) | 11:49 |
| ikonia | depesz: how do you expect that to work ? | 11:49 |
| depesz | ikonia: 2 cards? because it's already inside the machine. | 11:49 |
| ikonia | depesz: ok, so don't configure the one you don't want to use, or disable it | 11:49 |
| ikonia | depesz: only configure the one you want to use | 11:50 |
| jussi | depesz: check your bios, you may have to disable the integrated card. | 11:50 |

| MrUnagi | good morning | 12:47 |
| fidyduce | i need some help with cli | 12:48 |
| jrib | fidyduce: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) | 12:48 |
| MrUnagi | cli is command line interface | 12:48 |
| fidyduce | so how do i incorporate multiple dev's into one command? | 12:48 |
| fidyduce | yes i know what cli is lol | 12:49 |
| MrUnagi | separate with ; | 12:49 |
| jrib | fidyduce: what is a "dev"? | 12:49 |
| fidyduce | so like /dev/sda;/dev/sdb? | 12:49 |
| jrib | fidyduce: what exactly are you trying to execute? | 12:49 |
| MrUnagi | no | 12:50 |
| MrUnagi | nevermind i dont think i know what you are asking | 12:50 |
| fidyduce | jrib: i am not trying to be a pain, but there are things i have to be vague about... is there a RFC i can read or some basic beginner cli doc's i can look over? | 12:50 |
| llutz | fidyduce: to do what? ls -l /dev/sd[abc][1234567] | 12:50 |
| fidyduce | i know some stuff in cli just enough to get my self into trouble sadly :( | 12:50 |
| jrib | fidyduce: well the answer to your question is it depends on the command you are executing, thus my question | 12:51 |
| MrUnagi | i could probably help if i knew what you are trying to achieve | 12:51 |
| fidyduce | jrib: ok, ever hear of a tool called UPT or work with it? | 12:51 |
| MrUnagi | nope | 12:51 |
| fidyduce | then there you have it lol | 12:52 |
| jrib | fidyduce: no | 12:52 |
| fidyduce | seems nobody outside of my profession knows of it | 12:52 |
| MrUnagi | what is your profession | 12:52 |
| fidyduce | IT for Army | 12:52 |
| MrUnagi | heh | 12:52 |
| MrUnagi | 25 what | 12:52 |
| MrUnagi | or civilian | 12:52 |
| fidyduce | Bravo | 12:52 |
| MrUnagi | pffft | 12:52 |
| fidyduce | lol | 12:52 |
| MrUnagi | im a N doing a B job | 12:53 |
| fidyduce | you a uniform | 12:53 |
| MrUnagi | on rear D | 12:53 |
| fidyduce | lol | 12:53 |
| fidyduce | well i am purging with UPT | 12:53 |
| jrib | fidyduce: read its man page/documentation. Worst case scenario, use a for loop if the program doesn't support passing multiple arguments and doing what you want it to do | 12:53 |
| MrUnagi | ok getting closer...lol | 12:53 |

| dvrvm | hi. question: we have a system with local /home folders, but the client will sometimes connect via SSHFS to a remote server, and it would be desirable to mount the /home over directyl from there. is this dangerous to do while running a GUI (i.e. while accessing ~/Desktop as well as a lot of other files in ~?) | 12:55 |
| ethanol | why does gedit bitch and whine so much when I try to open files from an nfs mount? it cannot determine the character encoding used thus refuses to open it. yet it only allows me to pick utf8 aside from auto detect (which it fails at). but I think the document is iso8859 | 12:55 |

| haseha | hello | 12:58 |
| lessqq | any1 can help me with a kernel panic? | 12:58 |
| dvrvm | jrib: because gnome has a ton of files open in ~, and suddenly ~ starts to point somewhere else | 12:58 |
| === haseha is now known as arch | ||
| jrib | dvrvm: why "suddenly"? Can't you mount it before the user logs in? | 12:58 |
| jrib | dvrvm: if you're changing home after the user is logged in to gnome, then yes, I wouldn't do that | 12:59 |
| linux_ | #ubuntu-makassar | 12:59 |
| dvrvm | jrib: no. sshfs is not always mounted (since internet access is not a given), and the user has to mount it by hand (using a script) from gnome | 12:59 |
| sipior | dvrvm: don't overwrite a user's home directory on the fly. really bad idea :-) | 13:00 |
| chrispin | Hello | 13:00 |
| dvrvm | ok, that's what i suspected. any alternative ideas? | 13:00 |
| jrib | dvrvm: why does the user want to mount the other home? Just to access some files? | 13:01 |
| sipior | dvrvm: depends. why does the sshfs volume need to be mounted at /home/$USER anyway? | 13:01 |
| vpark | hi | 13:01 |
| dvrvm | it doesn't NEED to. but people want to access their data as if they were in the office | 13:01 |
| dvrvm | like, using thunderbird etc, having the same openoffice settings... | 13:02 |
| sipior | dvrvm: sure, but the volume can be mounted anywhere. i don't see the problem. | 13:02 |
| sipior | dvrvm: ah, i see. | 13:02 |
| dvrvm | sipior: yes, currently i mount it to /net_home, but it's not ideal | 13:03 |

| teweWork | i have a Dell N5010 notebook with an ATI5470 vga card running Ubuntu 10.10, when i connect to a windows workstation with tsclient my mouse cursor is messed up, if i use an external monitor the cursor is fine, even the messed up cursor looks fine on screenshot :) any idea? | 13:04 |
| jrib | chrispin: what do you mean by "ubuntu 'registry'"? Do you mean gconf? or? | 13:04 |
| === ratita is now known as obiwan_ | ||
| sipior | dvrvm: couple options. you can place the user's home directory under version control (git or the like), which they can then clone elsewhere. or just use nfs to begin with. | 13:04 |
| rwallace | Hi all! I'm on 10.04, trying to compile a C program that wants the Boehm garbage collector. I've got as far as apt-get install libgc-dev which seemed to work, what option should I then give to GCC for linking the program? | 13:04 |
| jrib | ethanol: it seems to speak about localepurge first, does that not do what you want? | 13:05 |
| ethanol | no, I want to add more locales | 13:05 |
| obiwan_ | hi people, i dont understand what's going on, but when i pess f keys in alsamixer i dont get the expected results. it says press f2 to whatever, i press it and it exits to the terminal screen. same with all f keys | 13:05 |
| ethanol | cause gedit only seems to know about utf8, I want iso support too | 13:05 |
| dvrvm | sipior: i don't like nfs over wan. nfs is what we use in the office. sshfs is the alternative for remote accessing your data from somewhere else. | 13:05 |
| teweWork | bah the cursor is messed up in vmware virtual machine too | 13:05 |
| sipior | dvrvm: use whatever you like. | 13:06 |
| rwallace | I tried gcc ... -llibgc, and ... -llibgc-dev, and neither of those got any where | 13:06 |
| chrispin | jrib: something similar to regedit of windows | 13:06 |
| jrib | ethanol: did you run localepurge and select the locales you want? | 13:06 |
| jrib | chrispin: why, what do you want to accomplish? | 13:06 |
| dvrvm | sipior: ok, then your idea would be to automate the version control? | 13:06 |
| ethanol | jrib: yes, but that only purges other files. does not seem to create/add anything | 13:07 |
| sipior | dvrvm: it's one possibility. i don't do it much myself, but know of a few folks who swear by it. | 13:07 |

| billythekid | BrewNo: what do you intend to use it for? 4gb is pretty excessive already | 13:33 |
| BrewNo | gaming | 13:33 |

| [TK]D-Fender | BrewNo: What game could realistically require 2 HD's & mor than 4 GB RAM? | 13:34 |

| Pici | billythekid: No, this channel has rules despite how busy or not the channel is. ##hardware is the best place to discuss it. | 13:35 |
| billythekid | BrewNo: i'd say get the cheaper one, 500gb is relatively cheap, shop around. 8gb is excessive - cut down on what you use | 13:35 |

| _Narc_ | Hello all. Sorry to ask this again. When I login, the login sound plays after a pause, only the login screen wallpaper showing, and after it played, it takes Gnome 15 more seconds to load and show a usable desktop. Any help to solve this ? Thanks a lot.. Maverick. | 13:36 |
| ilea | hi all | 13:36 |
| Vikash | Hello Everyone!!! I have one question... Is ubuntu better or Ubuntu-derivatives such as Linux Mint??? | 13:36 |
| skorv | i'm googling it for half an hour now | 13:36 |
| ilea | i have one big question | 13:36 |
| jrib | flower: you can use "-u" for example | 13:37 |
| Pici | billythekid, BrewNo: note that ##hardware probably requires you to register to join/talk /msg ubottu !register for instructions. | 13:37 |
| arand_ | Vikash: That is for _you_ to decide. | 13:37 |
| j_ayen_green | is there some tweak I can make so that when simplebackup runs it doesn't pretty much lock up the system? | 13:37 |
| Abhijit | !best | Vikash | 13:37 |
| ubottu | Vikash: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 13:37 |
| jrib | j_ayen_green: you can play with « nice » and « ionice » maybe | 13:37 |
| ilea | i want to buy a hp multy functional printer that haves scaner and all and i want to know if linux can see it and if it will work | 13:37 |
| ilea | ? | 13:37 |
| j_ayen_green | jrib: I could, except nothing on my screen responds until it's done | 13:38 |
| Vikash | But still i keep pondering over this and get confused... Now as unity is coming so m bit confused??? | 13:38 |
| Abhijit | Vikash, there is only one solution | 13:39 |
| jrib | j_ayen_green: you can start commands with specific nice values | 13:39 |
| j_ayen_green | jrib: ah! thank you :) | 13:39 |
| Abhijit | Vikash, TRY and see! not satisfied go to next distro. for this very purpuse we have live cd system | 13:39 |
| jrib | j_ayen_green: if it's a cpu issue, nice, if it's an input/output issue, ionice might help | 13:39 |

| ilea | i want to buy a hp multifunctional printer, will linux see it when i plug it in and install the driver or what? | 13:41 |
| j_ayen_green | jrib: not sure...the backup device is a nas and a wireless connection...could be either | 13:41 |
| harisund | iceroot: Will anything break if I symlink it to bash? | 13:41 |
| skorv | the names shown in network manager (wireless) are freaking long | 13:41 |
| jatt | most canon multifunctional printers work out-of-the-box | 13:41 |

| ilea | so if most comon printers work i will be able to use it without installing any driver because linux haves a driver fir printers in kernel? | 13:42 |
| harisund | iceroot: I had some script that had export variable=data that for some reason worked on Bash but on dash | 13:42 |
| jrib | harisund: no one uses dash interactively, but in theory it makes shell scripts run a little faster | 13:43 |
| ilea | for* | 13:43 |
| harisund | Pici: llutz thanks ! | 13:43 |
| grusum | ilea, I have HP Photosmart 5180 and ran hp-setup after connecting and it found and install required drivers no problem | 13:43 |
| Mayank | ceo:^^ | 13:43 |
| ceo | am have install so many application, i am need to destribut it, and if my patner install my app include to ? | 13:43 |
| iceroot | harisund: and we are talking about /bin/sh or /bin/bash? | 13:43 |
| llutz | harisund: just use #!/bin/bash as shebang for bash-scripts | 13:43 |
| jrib | harisund: those scripts should specify bash in the shebang line, not sh | 13:43 |
| ceo | Mayank, what up :) | 13:43 |
| Mayank | ceo: did u try using UCK? | 13:43 |
| Vikash | abhijeet, I truely agree and I have tried many distros and is also egarly waiting for 11.04 but still I am unable to decide on that... Can anyone compare this with learning curve and explain? | 13:43 |
| ceo | uck ? | 13:43 |
| ilea | yes but i am geting a hp multifunctional not a photo printer | 13:43 |
| vivek_ | i m a begginer can anyone help me? | 13:44 |
| ceo | Mayank, what uck ? | 13:44 |
| harisund | iceroot: llutz jrib : ah ok, I thought I copy pasted it off the web and I guess the place I copied it from had assumed #!/bin/sh was symlinked to bash | 13:44 |
| jrib | vivek_: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) | 13:44 |
| Mayank | ceo: you want to customize live cd / iso dont you? | 13:44 |
| ilea | to work at office and other things not to print photos | 13:44 |
| iceroot | harisund: symlink does not mean bash is running sh in bash mode | 13:44 |
| uday | I'm looking to switch the web host for my institute. Can anyone suggest a host that runs Ubuntu, just looking to support the community and I haven't really taken a look around. Thanks | 13:45 |
| harisund | iceroot: So what should I "correctly" do? Have #!/bin/bash in the script, and run it using "bash script_name" or "chmod +x script_name; ./script_name" ? | 13:45 |
| rany27 | wrong | 13:45 |
| grusum | ilea, the HP5180 is a multifunction printer device AND a photoprinter | 13:45 |
| iceroot | harisund: so doesnt matter if your are using bash, dash or sh. if you are using #!/bin/bs all three do the same | 13:45 |
| ilea | ooooooo | 13:45 |
| iceroot | harisund: always a shebang | 13:45 |
| ilea | ok thanks | 13:45 |

| ActionParsnip | vish: ? | 15:01 |
| jrib | citrus23455: so now you are saying you successfully installed ubuntu by using the alternate cd? | 15:01 |
| citrus23455 | jrib: i know it doesnt make sense, but I've installed over 12 cds of different flavours trying to make it work, nothing but the OLD 7.10, or 5.10's work fro mubuntu | 15:01 |
| gribouille | what's the use of the /etc/init directory ? | 15:01 |
| toor_ | hello | 15:01 |

| toor_ | ?? | 15:01 |
| vish | ActionParsnip: your comment on OMG about the buttons removal or someone is using the same nick :) | 15:01 |
| jrib | toor_: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) | 15:01 |
| compdoc | <- some bady | 15:02 |
| citrus23455 | jrib: i'm not mucking you around, this laptop is a nightmare to install ubuntu onto | 15:02 |
| PIkabarre | erUSUL: first ". /myfile" to source it and have access to a var ; next I do a "more fichier | grep $var" where $var is a variable declared in /myfile such as "var=test" | 15:02 |
| citrus23455 | jrib: i should give up and go bk to xp soon if i cant get it to run | 15:02 |
| PIkabarre | then grep does not "grep" the line.. | 15:02 |
| jrib | citrus23455: I'm trying to undertsand your current state | 15:02 |
| PIkabarre | If I do it on a shell, it works | 15:02 |
| toor_ | more people | 15:02 |
| erUSUL | PIkabarre: why you use more? do just « grep "$var" fichier » | 15:02 |
| erUSUL | PIkabarre: quote all your var expansions | 15:03 |
| toor_ | ??? | 15:03 |
| toor_ | what | 15:03 |
| erUSUL | !ask | toor_ | 15:03 |
| ubottu | toor_: 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. :-) | 15:03 |
| citrus23455 | jrib: i've got a laptop, with an alternate cd 10.10 ubuntu installed. it's on cli. it shows me an empty sources.list with vi. | 15:03 |
| PIkabarre | erUSUL: in reality it's not a more it's a command that I put in the pipe in order to grep it :-) | 15:03 |
| Gwar_Trolle | Hi guys, I need some help here. I just bought a second monitor, but I cannot get multi-display to work :( I can get CLONED display to work, but that's pointless. :'( | 15:03 |
| toor_ | copy that | 15:03 |
| jrib | ZeroZiat: so "install side by side" tells you it wants to resize windows? | 15:04 |
| blue_pearl | ceo, any luck? | 15:04 |
| toor_ | i'm just a new bay | 15:04 |
| toor_ | boy | 15:04 |
| jrib | citrus23455: well I'd say that's not a successful install if your /etc/apt/sources.list is empty | 15:04 |
| gribouille | why do I have both /etc/init/vsftpd.conf and /etc/init.d/vsftpd ? | 15:04 |
| ZeroZiat | jrib: Yeah, I read you have to use the manual partition thing now. | 15:04 |
| ceo | am have done, thanks for all | 15:04 |
| erUSUL | PIkabarre: what command? so "$var" is an argument for the command or what? tell me *exactly* what are you doing | 15:04 |
| blue_pearl | ceo, u r welcome | 15:04 |
| fidyduce | so what is the execute command for ubuntu terminal | 15:04 |
| ceo | :) | 15:04 |
| jpds | fidyduce: gnome-terminal | 15:05 |
| jrib | gribouille: because init is for upstart and init.d is for sysv-init scripts. If a program has an upstart-style init script in init/, then it also gets one in init.d (for legacy reasons I suppose) take a close look at it and see that it just points to the init one | 15:05 |
| fidyduce | jpds: yes the gnome-terminal what is the exec command | 15:05 |
| ActionParsnip | vish: yeah thats me | 15:05 |
| Guest84712 | i don't understand the instructions of the registration preocess | 15:05 |
| jrib | ZeroZiat: k, I would just do that then | 15:05 |
| Guest84712 | any one pls explain it | 15:05 |
| blue_pearl | fidyduce, Alt+F2 and type gnome-terminal | 15:05 |
| jpds | fidyduce: /usr/bin/gnome-terminal | 15:05 |
| jrib | Guest84712: #freenode can help you with that | 15:05 |
| Guest84712 | i don't get the commands | 15:06 |
| rumpe1 | fidyduce, what do you want to execute? | 15:06 |
| ZeroZiat | jrib: That's where the plot thickens, I've got no idea how to partition this. | 15:06 |
| jrib | Guest84712: /join #freenode | 15:06 |
| ActionParsnip | blue_pearl: ctrl+alt+t does that too :) | 15:06 |
| PIkabarre | Ok erUSUL : I source the script to have access to a variable ; then I do my command (pkcs11-tool) which prints data on stdout, that's why I use a pipe to grep these data (by doing command | grep -c "$var") | 15:06 |
| jrib | ZeroZiat: just create a swap and a / (ext4) in the free space. If you want a separate /home, you can do that too | 15:06 |
| fidyduce | rumpe1: usually in any other form of linux i use ./ but ubuntu does not seem to work here | 15:06 |
| rumpe1 | fidyduce, well... depends on what and where you want to execute | 15:07 |
| erUSUL | PIkabarre: well it should work tm run the script with « bash -x » to see what is actually run | 15:07 |
| martian | fidyduce: oh yes, that is the case. I think they thought you wanted to know what the command to actually run the terminal was. | 15:07 |
| erUSUL | PIkabarre: you can move to #bash te get better help too | 15:07 |
| fidyduce | yeah i know right lol | 15:07 |
| blue_pearl | ActionParsnip, ya :) | 15:07 |
| fidyduce | martain i was going to say something about that but just let it go | 15:08 |

| citrus23455 | alternate cd = bad idea for a n00b | 15:08 |
| gribouille | with upstart, how can I disable a servcie so that it is not started in a given runlevel ? | 15:08 |
| ZeroZiat | hm, jrib, and what size should everything be? I heard swaps have to be twice as big as your ram, how can I check how big it is? I believe it is 2 gigs but I'm not sure. | 15:09 |
| citrus23455 | jrib: what's the best ubuntu for the intel The INTEL R 82810 GRAPHICS | 15:09 |
| jrib | citrus23455: do the install again. If you have a blank sources.list, something is wrong and it's likely a sign that other things are broken. If you verified the integrity of the cd, then something else went wrong | 15:09 |
| ActionParsnip | ZeroZiat: 1xRAM for 2Gb or more, if you have less than 2Gb RAM then use double | 15:09 |
| martian | citrus23455: perhaps this would help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=733298 | 15:09 |

| ZeroZiat | err, explain that clearer, please, ActionParsnip | 15:10 |
| citrus23455 | jrib: need to pee brb | 15:10 |
| gribouille | jrib, vsftpd | 15:10 |
| PIkabarre | erUSUL: thx.. bash -x on the file I source show var=$'content-of-var\r' | 15:10 |
| ZeroZiat | Should the partitions be primary or logical? | 15:10 |
| jrib | gribouille: you can read /etc/init/vsftpd.conf Sometimes maintainers include a way to disable the service. If not, just add "never" as a starting condition and then it won't start at boot | 15:10 |
| ActionParsnip | ZeroZiat: if you have 2Gb RAM or more, use the same amount of swap space as you have RAM. If you have less than 2Gb RAM then the swap space should be double the size of your RAM | 15:11 |
| ActionParsnip | ZeroZiat: primary or logical is moot | 15:11 |
| erUSUL | PIkabarre: probably grep does not like \r ? why are you using $'' ? | 15:11 |
| compdoc | primary is best | 15:11 |
| martian | I have an nfs share mounted through my fstab, and whenever the connection is physically interrupted, the mount point becomes unusable until I manually umount and mount it again. Is there a way to make it auto-remount somehow? | 15:11 |
| ZeroZiat | ok | 15:11 |
| gribouille | jrib, isn't there comm command like chkconfig to manage services ? | 15:12 |
| ActionParsnip | compdoc: why is it best? | 15:12 |
| jrib | gribouille: not for upstart (yet), no | 15:12 |
| ircdon | how can I connect tu my machine remotely like via putty ? is it default to running ssh? or any command? | 15:12 |
| PIkabarre | erUSUL: $'' is the output of "bash -x file-to-source" | 15:12 |
| rumpe1 | ircdon, you have to install openssh-server | 15:12 |
| compdoc | well, for a swap partititon, its what the installer creates by default - primary | 15:12 |
| ircdon | where can I get tutorial? | 15:12 |
| jrib | !ssh | ircdon | 15:13 |
| ubottu | ircdon: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 15:13 |

| Logan_WP | !sshd | ircdon | 15:13 |
| ubottu | ircdon: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, sshd is the server (or daemon) of SSH. For setting up the SSH server, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/openssh-server.html . Advanced SSH uses: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Advanced .

| rumpe1 | !tz | 15:13 |
| ActionParsnip | compdoc: default doesn't mean ANYTHING, if you have too many partitions you will need an extended partition with logical partitions so you can have more partition, primary partitions aren't any better than logical ones in any way | 15:14 |
| ircdon | I need to checkout both !ssh & !sshd ? | 15:14 |
| ZeroZiat | Okay, apparently I have 1885Mbs of ram, according to 'free -m', how big should my swap be? | 15:14 |
| CarlFK | when I pull the power from my laptop the screen dims. where do I disable that? | 15:14 |
| Logan_WP | ircdon: just see the second message Ubottu sent to you | 15:14 |
| blue_pearl | CarlFK, Power manager | 15:14 |
| CarlFK | ZeroZiat: it depends on what apps and how much memory they need. if you don't know, go with the defaults. | 15:15 |
| ircdon | ty | 15:15 |
| compdoc | ActionParsnip, logical or extended partitions will work for swap? | 15:15 |
| ZeroZiat | carlfk, the installer doesn't autoadjust to what I already have cause they removed the 'use largest continous free space' option. | 15:15 |
| ActionParsnip | ircdon: on the server system, you just need to install openssh-server and you can then connect with putty. If you install and run xming on the windows side and use the -X switch on putty you can run graphical apps on the server and they will appear on the client but be running on the server | 15:15 |

| ActionParsnip | ircdon: *desktop, sorry | 15:16 |
| ircdon | ubuntu desktop can work as server? | 15:17 |
| CarlFK | ZeroZiat: swap size was more of an issue 10 years ago when ram was expensive and disks were small. that stuff has grown faster than apps use it. | 15:17 |
| jrib | iratik: hmm, that should work... | 15:17 |

| bubbadesu | fine* | 15:17 |
| ircdon | lemme try and get back to u | 15:17 |

| llutz | compdoc: depends on the netbook specs | 15:17 |
| Logan_WP | !nbr | bubbadesu | 15:17 |
| ActionParsnip | ircdon: sure. The nly difference between the server and desktop is the desktop comes with a desktop | 15:17 |
| ubottu | bubbadesu: Ubuntu Netbook Edition is a slightly altered version of Ubuntu, optimised for small screens. For more information, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR - support in #ubuntu | 15:17 |
| ubuntu_ | rey | 15:17 |
| Dcite | bubbadesu: Yes it works fine with a netbook, least most of them. | 15:17 |
| rumpe1 | ircdon, but on a real server you usually don't need X | 15:17 |
| aweteaw | am i clear | 15:17 |

| Logan_WP | iratik: Ruby support is in #ruby | 15:22 |
| [4-tea-2] | Ubuntu empowered me! I can stop time! MWAHAHAHAHA! (By starting Liferea which makes the gnome-panel stop updating, so the clock applet's time display doesn't change anymore). | 15:23 |
| jrib | iratik: you use ntp? | 15:23 |
| iratik | jrib: yes? | 15:23 |
| [4-tea-2] | iratik: actually, afaik, the timezone mechanics need to know whether the hardware clock is set to GMT or local time. | 15:24 |
| iratik | where do i set that? | 15:24 |
| [4-tea-2] | iratik: in Debian, you used to get a dialog during installation asking about it. These days, I guess nobody relies on the hardware clock much anymore. | 15:24 |

I could scrap OSX and put on ubuntu... ? or maybe get use to mac | 15:31 |
| BoulderDave | osx? i wouldn't want to have an ubuntu development environment running virtually though... so it would either be scrap osx or learn to get along with it... | 15:31 |

| Roasted | ikonia, I'm almost positive it's a personal setting in the .thunderbird directory that KDE's existence changed. Just curious on how I can flop it back. | 16:06 |
| ikonia | Roasted: ok, well finding out for certain if it's a personal settings thing is the way to go | 16:07 |
| aworkingpig | Pumpkin, you mean header and not headers ? | 16:07 |
| Roasted | ikonia, I've had this happen before, so I'm pretty certain that's what it is. | 16:07 |
| mike23pizzo | Hello, I was wondering if someone might be able to help me. I'm trying to get different wallpapers on each workspace. I've found plenty of guides, but they all tell me to go to the wallpaper setting in compizconfig settings. It should be under utility but it's not. I don't have a wallpaper option. Anyone else have this problem before? | 16:07 |
| ikonia | Roasted: then fix it how you fixed it before instead of asking for help | 16:07 |
| bo_root | anyone has solution or any hint for WPA: Invalid EAPOL-Key MIC when using TPTK - ignoring TPTK error | 16:07 |
| Roasted | ikonia, if I knew how to fix it, I would have fixed it instead of asking. | 16:07 |
| ikonia | Roasted: if you want help - follow the advice to get the information spot on to get help, if you know the problem then work out how to fix it | 16:07 |
| ikonia | Roasted: check for certain with a different user | 16:08 |
| Pumpkin- | aworkingpig: I mean do sudo apt-get -y install linux-headers-`uname -r` libncursesw5-dev. Don't have " anywhere. | 16:08 |
| Roasted | ikonia, but I appreciate your smartass input. I'll continue asking for help since I am unsure of how to fix it. | 16:08 |
| ikonia | Roasted: it's not smart ass, I'm trying to find out for certain if this is the problem | 16:08 |
| Roasted | ikonia, I know it's the problem, as I already stated. | 16:08 |
| ikonia | Roasted: testing it with another user is a simple way to prove/disprove it | 16:08 |
| Roasted | ikonia, if I knew how to fix it, it'd be done now. | 16:08 |
| aworkingpig | Pumpkin, i only added " for here, sorry | 16:08 |
| Pumpkin- | ahha | 16:08 |
| Roasted | ikonia, but I don't, so I'm asking here. | 16:08 |
| ikonia | Roasted: you don't KNOW it's the problem, you think it's the problem | 16:08 |
| ikonia | Roasted: it's well worth the 5 minutes to test | 16:08 |
| Roasted | ikonia, I had the exact same thing happen before. I'm just trying to FIX it instead of nuking my .thunderbird profile and starting over. | 16:08 |
| ikonia | Roasted: ok, look at your .thunderbird profile and look for anything that conflicts | 16:09 |
| plwert | any recommendations for a more interactive alternative to gnuplot? I want to be able to toggle the display of certain lines and show the min/max of certain curves in a way that doesn't require me to download a patch and recompile the program :\ | 16:09 |
| animefan | so I'm on ubuntu 10.10 and package download is going slow as hell. What should I do? It's not a problem with my Internet connection. | 16:09 |
| ikonia | animefan: it's possible it's a problem with the mirror your getting the package from | 16:10 |
| Roasted | ikonia, I just renamed .thunderbird to .thunderbird.back. White text now. Just what I want. | 16:10 |
| Roasted | ikonia, was hoping to avoid redoing my whole tbird setup though | 16:10 |
| desti | https://store.unigine.com/products/category/oilrush/ preorder just started :) | 16:10 |
| ikonia | Roasted: go through the config files and look for hex colours | 16:11 |
| ikonia | the guys in #thunderbird on irc.mozilla.org may have a more advanced understanding of the config files also | 16:11 |
| Roasted | ikonia, I'm not noticing anything so far. Just a lot of ini and sqlite files. | 16:11 |
| ikonia | Roasted: check out the thunderbird docs, see how it stores it's config, I wonder if it's stored in a small sqllite db these days | 16:12 |
| ikonia | Roasted: (I don't know if that's right, hence suggesting checking the docs to see where the config info is stored) | 16:12 |

| ruan | is it safe to remove old linux kernel headers? eg. 2.6.35-22 | 16:19 |

| ruan | jatt: ok, but why doesn't that get done automatically? | 16:20 |
| rsvp | how does one specify alternate repo locations? | 16:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ruan: if you aren't currently running it, yes | 16:20 |

| numberto | Hello everybody, where does chrome holds pdf cache? | 16:21 |
| a2z | Okay. I just checked into inx channel but no one answered my question. Since inx linux is based on ubuntu there is no harm in asking. Might anyone know how to install it on hard disk? | 16:21 |
| ruan | imho an older kernel should be automatically deleted though | 16:21 |
| jpds | ruan: Until the latest one stops booting and you can't go back onto a working old one. | 16:22 |
| needlez | also does anyone know if aircrack-ng works in kernel 2.6.35-27 or if it gives the channel -1 error also, and any way to fix?? | 16:22 |
| jatt | well you should have at least one older version around in case the current version breaks | 16:22 |
| ruan | so, sudo apt-get remove linux-image-2.6.35-22-generic | 16:22 |
| plwert | automatically removing things, what could possibly go wrong? | 16:22 |
| * uu007 off home, thansk for the help ActionParsnip ! | 16:23 | |
| ruan | jpds: you can still boot a livecd and install an older kernel from there though | 16:23 |
| ruan | i believe | 16:23 |
| jpds | ruan: Well that's not useful if you don't have a LiveCD and no other computer. | 16:24 |
| rsvp | jpds, thanks for the command line version -- instead of substitution, can one simply append to that file -- or how to "if fail, then alt" ie "||" in bash terms. | 16:24 |

| fullmetallica | hey guys, how would i install braid from braid-linux-build2.run.bin | 16:32 |
| rumpe1 | fullmetallica, 1. do you really need this? 2. if yes, make it executable 3. execute it | 16:33 |

| ActionParsnip | fullmetallica: chmod +x braid-linux-build2.run.bin; sudo ./braid-linux-build2.run.bin I assume your pwd is the same as the file and that it needs sudo to start the binary) | 16:34 |

| aeon-ltd | LarsTorben: depends on what you like? | 16:36 |
| ActionParsnip | ruan: mark them as executable with right click then double click it | 16:36 |
| ruan | ActionParsnip: i mean, bin files wont execute in gui | 16:36 |
| ruan | it opens with virus scanner | 16:36 |
| LarsTorben | aeon-ltd: when i ask what is better ? | 16:36 |
| ActionParsnip | ruan: then you will need to select "execute in terminal" | 16:37 |

| ActionParsnip | ruan: i guess | 16:41 |
| aeon-ltd | LarsTorben: no, its supposedly more 'efficient' but research shows that its savings are minimal at best, in reality if you spent a few seconds less waiting they could add up to minutes then you can shutdown earlier thus saving more electricity than using a green hdd | 16:41 |

| jrib | serard: you can't just drop scripts in /etc/init.d/, they need a certain structure (see /etc/init.d/skeleton). Even better write an upstart script instead (/msg ubottu !upstart). But what I suggested above doesn't involve any of that. I am telling you to just put your command in /etc/rc.local (before the exit line). This will work but is not very clean, thus why I recommend you look for the "standard" | 17:01 |

| tyebud1 | Hey ubuntu, I've been playing around with running ubuntu off a usb, but I don't like how it automatically logs in to the live user account. In addition to that, it seems like if I create a new user, the new home folders don't persist | 17:54 |
| ActionParsnip | itrekkie: uname -m | 17:55 |
| Spicemaster | hi viva la turky | 17:55 |
| rumpe1 | itrekkie, uname -a | 17:55 |
| itrekkie | thank you guys :D | 17:55 |
| ActionParsnip | itrekkie: i686 == 32bit x86_64 == 64bit | 17:55 |
| tyebud1 | Is there a good tutorial for setting up a more secure and conventional type experience? | 17:55 |
| bstarek | hello guys, how can i remove GRUB please? | 17:55 |
| ActionParsnip | bstarek: just install anoter boot loader | 17:55 |
| bstarek | ActionParsnip: how is that? | 17:56 |
| ActionParsnip | tyebud1: conventional in what way? | 17:56 |
| ActionParsnip | bstarek: well, your system NEEDS a bootloader to make its OSes load, so to remove grub just install a different loader | 17:56 |
| === Tuna-Fish2 is now known as essipessi | ||
| tyebud1 | ActionParsnip: I guess I'm looking for a setup that, when I boot from the usb, it operates just like a conventional install | 17:57 |
| bstarek | ActionParsnip: i was thinking about re-installling Ubuntu | 17:57 |
| tyebud1 | ActionParsnip: I don't want it to auto log a live user, and I want everything to persist | 17:57 |
| adeee | hello can anybody tell me what is the name of this IRC network? | 17:57 |
| tyebud1 | ActionParsnip: Does that make sense? | 17:57 |
| jpds | adeee: freenode.net | 17:57 |
| bstarek | ActionParsnip: so i wanted to remover the loader and ubuntu and reinstall everything.....i got a bootable win7 cd... | 17:57 |

| Roasted | Has anybody added Ubuntu to a Windows domain using Likewise Open? I'm curious about these Kerberos servers realm questions it's asking. | 17:58 |

| ActionParsnip | tyebud1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 17:58 |
| ActionParsnip | bstarek: boot to your windows CD and reinstate the windows bootloader, then reinstall ubuntu and the dual boot will be managed | 17:59 |

| rumpe1 | bstarek, fixmbr or something like that | 18:01 |
| tyebud1 | ActionParsnip: Oh so, installing ubuntu directly to the USB as opposed to using the Live version should solve these problems? | 18:01 |
| bstarek | ActionParsnip:alright i apreciate your output | 18:01 |
| ActionParsnip | tyebud1: the persistant install will allow you to make updates stick | 18:02 |
| Kruptein | okay I can't get past the boot screen, my computer seems to don't do anything but showing "AHCI CD-ROM" I know insert an ubuntu live cd, what are your ideas to solve this issue? | 18:02 |

| khem_ | I installed r8192se driver from Realtek, the driver only works with unencrypted accesspoints. What is there I can do? | 18:02 |

| ActionParsnip | tyebud1: well any usb ubuntu will do that, wont it | 18:03 |

| vic_ | i done it this way because my friend installed ubuntu on my lappy and i like it and now i want to try on my pc and work it out for myself but i dont know anything about it lol | 18:42 |

| quaisi | then i think it's system administration choose gparted partition editor just to see if it recognizes the parttitions | 18:50 |
| NCS_One | how can I have command history in ssh connection? | 18:50 |
| Starminn | ksinkar: It should, yes. | 18:50 |
| fowl | if it doesnt? | 18:50 |
| erUSUL | !info systat | JTS000ID_ | 18:50 |
| ubottu | JTS000ID_: Package systat does not exist in maverick | 18:50 |
| ksinkar | Starminn: i am not choosing the first option, is that OK?? | 18:51 |
| erUSUL | !info sysstat | JTS000ID_ | 18:51 |
| ubottu | JTS000ID_: sysstat (source: sysstat): system performance tools for Linux. In component main, is optional. Version 9.0.6.1-2 (maverick), package size 247 kB, installed size 1144 kB | 18:51 |
| ksinkar | Starminn: the first option being install ubuntu and windows side by side | 18:51 |
| quaisi | I'm not sure - look for advanced settings on installer | 18:51 |
| JTS000ID_ | So sysstat is what I need I get from that sentence | 18:51 |
| bastidrazor | NCS_One: type history ;it is an actual command or you can lookin ~/.bash_history | 18:51 |
| fowl | I did | 18:51 |
| quaisi | i believe you :) | 18:51 |
| Macstheyjustsuck | I'm trying to run IntelliJ and I know I have Java and JDK installed because I was running it before, but then I shut down my computer and now it says I don't have JDK installed, it says to validate it, how do I do that? | 18:51 |
| fowl | there was advanced and there was erase entire disk | 18:51 |
| Starminn | ksinkar: If you chose that then it would give you the option to shrink Windows/expand Ubuntu and it would do all partitioning for you. I'm pretty sure you don't want to do that since you already have spaced planned out for it. | 18:52 |
| quaisi | did advanced have anything useful fowl? | 18:53 |
| fowl | nope | 18:53 |
| fowl | it had the table and the entire disk to partition | 18:53 |
| fowl | it is really annoying :( | 18:53 |
| quaisi | do you have more than 1 hdd? | 18:54 |
| ksinkar | Starminn: exactly, you have understood my problem | 18:54 |
| Hedgehog456 | is there a driver for integrated broadcom wireless cards? b43 maybe? | 18:54 |
| NCS_One | bastidrazor: I meant history like pressing up arrow key and cicle last commands | 18:54 |
| erUSUL | Hedgehog456: there is; you have to install the firmware | 18:54 |
| === zz_PhilMather is now known as PhilMather | ||

| Hedgehog456 | ok thanks | 18:55 |
| erUSUL | Hedgehog456: sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer | 18:55 |
| ksinkar | Starminn: so should i proceed with the third option and trust that while the bootloader is installing it will detect windows and make the appropriate changes? | 18:55 |
| Hedgehog456 | will do when i install ubuntu in a sec | 18:55 |
| Starminn | ksinkar: So if there is an option for installing to free space, I would choose that. | 18:55 |
| bastidrazor | NCS_One: in gnome-terminal pressing the up arrow should give you that | 18:55 |
| tsrk | How can I restrict a user on the system from making outbound network connections from all ports except 80? | 18:55 |
| fowl | Well, the first time I installed ubuntu it recognized my windows and split it so I could get ubuntu. the i uninstalled it and it became free space and I fixed my windows from the grub loader, then i decided I wanted it back so I made my free space ntfs and then back to free space (this was between time) | 18:55 |
| erUSUL | Hedgehog456: you have to be connected to internet by other means ( cable ) while doing so | 18:55 |
| Starminn | ksinkar: Yes. Your other option is to do it manually which will likely give you the same result as if you did it automatically to free space. | 18:55 |
| fowl | and then... my error | 18:55 |

| tsrk | erUSUL: I want to stop a user from connecting to remote machines on all ports such as 80. For example, I want to stop them from connecting SSL websites. | 18:59 |
| tsrk | erUSUL: on all ports except 80* | 18:59 |
| CarlFK | is /ect/modules the right place to add modules? I was expecting to add a new file for each, like in /etc/modprobe.d/ | 18:59 |
| quaisi | ok fowl I have some suggestions | 19:00 |
| quaisi | first back everything up | 19:00 |
| fowl | ok | 19:00 |
| erUSUL | tsrk: so is except connections *to* port 80 not *from* port 80? | 19:00 |
| quaisi | using gparted then create a partition manually whilst booting from live environment (usb/cd) - it's not that hard and there's plenty of tutorials on google | 19:01 |
| quaisi | perhaps format to ext3 or ext4 | 19:01 |
| erUSUL | tsrk: and it has to be only one user? | 19:01 |
| fowl | but would this cut into | 19:01 |
| fowl | other partitions? | 19:01 |
| quaisi | yes which is why good to back up | 19:02 |

| bobslaede | Hey. How can i stop someone from trying to connect to my server via ssh. Theyre trying pretty hard to bruteforce their way in with a number of usernames and passwords? | 19:03 |
| Starminn | quaisi: WUBI is generally not advised because it runs slower than an actual install, and is dependent on Windows. So when you boot into Ubuntu, you're also loading pieces of Windows. | 19:03 |
| Maynel | please explain how can I format hdd with ubuntu live dcd | 19:03 |
| Maynel | dvd* | 19:03 |
| bastidrazor | bobslaede: fail2ban is a great way | 19:04 |
| schnuffle | bobslaede: sshguard or fail2ban can do te job | 19:04 |
| bobslaede | thanks guys | 19:04 |
| quaisi | yes starminn correct but it can help ease into an ubuntu life | 19:04 |
| === jwkokc is now known as jk_ | ||
| quaisi | at the start I said wasn't sure and I just wanted to provide some suggestions | 19:05 |
| erUSUL | bobslaede: first change ssh default port that will cut the attemps. then use some ratelimit like fail2ban as bastidrazor said ( there are iptables modules for that too ) | 19:05 |
| Starminn | Maynel: Boot into your LiveCD and use the trial setting. Go to System->Administration->GParted. Use it | 19:05 |
| bobslaede | erUSUL: theyre trying from all kinds of ports as well | 19:05 |
| Starminn | quaisi: Sort of, yes, but it creates headaches when you try to actually install Ubuntu. | 19:05 |
| bobslaede | erUSUL: i think ill try fail2ban | 19:05 |
| schnuffle | bobslaede: that's normal | 19:06 |
| vak | I have a folder containing tones of sparse data files. Is there a way to get this files be transparently zipped before they get written into this directory and unzipped when they are read from disk? (This option is available in Windows) | 19:06 |
| [TK]D-Fender | Maynel: Setting up your partition is part of the INSTALLATION process | 19:06 |
| erUSUL | bobslaede: i am talking about chagin the port your sshd listens on | 19:06 |
| bobslaede | alright | 19:06 |
| Starminn | quiasi: If you want to use WUBI you can, that's fine, but I and most other people here will advise against it, especially since you've already partitioned out your HDD for Ubuntu anyway. | 19:06 |
| erUSUL | bobslaede: script kiddies try por 22 | 19:06 |
| [TK]D-Fender | Maynel: So pick "install" | 19:06 |
| bobslaede | erUSUL: any suggestions, or just any other port than 22 | 19:06 |
| AAA_awright | I'm using the development Ubuntu, the side application bar isn't dissappearing anymore, anyone know what's going on? | 19:06 |
| bastidrazor | bobslaede: i use 2222 ..its easy to remember | 19:06 |
| quaisi | this is regarding fowl's query right starminn? | 19:06 |
| bobslaede | bastidrazor: alright, ill do that as well as fail2ban | 19:07 |
| fowl | Starminn do you have a suggestion about my problem? | 19:07 |
| schnuffle | bobslaede: changing the port won't make it more secure but keeps your logs clenaer | 19:07 |
| erUSUL | bobslaede: whatever you like | 19:07 |
| bastidrazor | bobslaede: i agree, both methods are a sure way to slow if not stop attacks. | 19:07 |

| Hedgehog456 | ThinkT510: is it recommended to keep the windows reinstall partition? | 19:30 |
| fowl | It is not a problem with the cd starminn it must be something else because the first time it did for sure detect it, should i format my 2nd partition ntfs? fat32? free space? | 19:31 |
| ThinkT510 | Hedgehog456: that entirely depends on whether you want to keep it, in my experience its always been a waste of space because i have windows install disks if i want to install windows | 19:32 |
| bstarek | maco,ThinkT510,Starminn: alright guys thanks!! | 19:32 |
| mkquist | Hedgehog456: is that partition used to make recovery cd/dvds? or is it actually used to recover the machines windows install? | 19:32 |
| Starminn | fowl: Well the problem is that it's not seeing *anything*, correct? So theoretically, regardless of what you format it to, it won't see it. | 19:32 |
| bstarek | maco,ThinkT510,Starminn: should i stick with Gparted for the partitions? | 19:32 |

| Hedgehog456 | ThinkT510: it looks better | 19:48 |
| Starminn | mbeierl: For your reference, whenever you use Compiz, it replaces Metacity which is the default window title bar handler. So, if it happens again, just make sure compiz knows to leave the windows to Metacity and butt out of its business! ;) | 19:48 |
| bastidrazor | raphael: not at all.. you could create a swap file if you needed swap | 19:49 |
| bstarek | hedgehog456: you can save time if u get used to Ubuntu | 19:49 |

| erUSUL | OttifantSir: you can remove the module now; « sudo modprobe -r jfs » | 20:16 |
| [TK]D-Fender | Maynel: The reason isn't performance, it is for separation of data. | 20:16 |
| erUSUL | Maynel: c compiler? | 20:16 |
| Maynel | [TK]D-Fender I heard there is difference in performance.. | 20:16 |
| jwfoxjr | SolitonWave: you can always import the GPG key for the repository in question and the install | 20:16 |
| ThinkT510 | dborba: installing grub to your / partition will not affect your mbr | 20:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Maynel: if you want to compile C code, install build-essential and you can | 20:16 |
| [TK]D-Fender | Maynel: And where do you hear this? | 20:16 |
| bullgard | mgolisch: Are you sure that you really meant "username"? | 20:16 |
| Maynel | erUSUL> yes that too ubuntu have build in c and other compilers? | 20:16 |
| erUSUL | ulrichard_: ask in ##c or in #workingset | 20:16 |
| Maynel | ok | 20:17 |
| Jordan_U | dborba: There isn't an option outside the one in the manual partitioning menu. | 20:17 |
| [TK]D-Fender | Maynel: Ubuntu has the same things as any other distro has. | 20:17 |
| erUSUL | Maynel: it has more programming tools that most other OS's | 20:17 |
| dborba | ThinkT510, i suppose i could install it to the ubuntu partition - even though I'd never use it. I thought you meant to install it to the root of the physical disk (the 1MB left for a bootloader on the beginning of the disk) | 20:17 |
| mgolisch | bullgard: yeah the first column in ps aux output is the username of the user that executes the process | 20:17 |
| Maynel | whats best c0ompielr to install on ubuntu? | 20:17 |
| llutz | bullgard: ps aux|head -1 tells you what the columns are | 20:17 |
| Maynel | for c c++ java | 20:17 |
| OttifantSir | erUSUL: Thanks again. But that modprobe isn't persistent is it? | 20:17 |
| Maynel | suggestions pls | 20:17 |
| bullgard | ActionParsnip: I do not understand. Can you elaborate what you referred to exactly. | 20:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Maynel: there is no single best solution for any situation | 20:18 |
| dborba | ThinkT510, silly that you no longer are able to simply NOT install it | 20:18 |
| Maynel | ook | 20:18 |
| erUSUL | Maynel: gcc for c and c++ for java you have sun's java and openjdk | 20:18 |
| Maynel | ok thanks | 20:18 |
| ThinkT510 | dborba: no it will install wherever you put the ubuntu partition | 20:18 |
| erUSUL | OttifantSir: no; but that way you do not have to reboot right away | 20:18 |
| Maynel | does ubuntu have some api and where to read about it? | 20:18 |
| Maynel | api for i's os | 20:18 |
| ActionParsnip | bullgard: ntp is Network Time Protocol, the daemon is a process managing that protocol. Similarly proftpd is a daemon too :) | 20:19 |

| OttifantSir | erUSUL: Final question: Do I need the quotation signs in the blacklist, like "blacklist module_name", or just blacklist module_name? | 20:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Starminn: helps if you run it as on e command as I gave it but it's ok. How much RAM is in the system? | 20:24 |
| Starminn | ActionParsnip: 4.5GB. | 20:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Starminn: do youo use onboard video? | 20:25 |
| mgolisch | lol? | 20:25 |
| Starminn | ActionParsnip: Not quite sure what that means. | 20:25 |
| mgolisch | onboard video chips usualy do not have their own video memory and steal from the system memory | 20:25 |
| mgolisch | so that may be why there is memory missing | 20:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Starminn: is your video chip on your motherboard or is it a seperate card? | 20:25 |
| Starminn | ActionParsnip: My video chip is a separate card. I believe this is it http://pastebin.com/DNqrBx6Z (at the very bottom) | 20:27 |

| javahorn | Hi | 20:28 |
| chronos | I'm trying to install libapache2-mod-wsgi on ubuntu server but ubuntu try to install python 3 while we are using python 2.6 yet.... exist a way to force python dependecy to be 2.6.x? | 20:28 |
| jwfoxjr | SolitonWave: do a sudo apt-get update and then try installing your software | 20:29 |
| OttifantSir | alienferxx: If you are asking if it is, then the answer is YES. | 20:29 |
| javahorn | i face screen brightness issue when i take away power cord, ie it goes dim and Fn+Brightness does not work ! | 20:29 |
| Starminn | ActionParsnip: Well I never use more than 1.5GB anyway so is it just not worth the trouble? I mean, I'd like for it to see it, but if it's mroe trouble than it's worth then I'll pass. | 20:29 |
| OttifantSir | javahorn: Have you tried checking the power management settings? | 20:29 |
| javahorn | OttifantSir: yes tired of that | 20:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Starminn: if you look in bios there will be a setting there, you should be ok though | 20:30 |
| ChogyDan | chronos: what version of ubuntu? | 20:30 |
| chronos | maverick | 20:30 |
| Starminn | ActionParsnip: Alright, what would the name of this setting be, roughly? Just so I know what I'm looking for when I decide to do it. | 20:30 |
| alienferxx | Wudi is compatible with windows 7 | 20:30 |
| alienferxx | Escuchar | 20:30 |
| SolitonWave | jwandbor1: At least that worked with no error | 20:30 |
| Starminn | !es | alienferxx | 20:30 |

| ActionParsnip | Starminn: not sure, i just remeber it being something bios shaped | 20:31 |
| chronos | ChogyDan: doesn't exist some conf that force to ignore python >= 2.7? | 20:31 |
| Starminn | ActionParsnip: :) Haha, fair enough. | 20:31 |
| javahorn | OttifantSir: quiet splash i changed , it improved only when power is on | 20:31 |
| Starminn | ActionParsnip: Thanks. You've gotten me futher than anybody else. | 20:31 |
| ChogyDan | chronos: I'm on maverick, and mine doesn't have that, it is python >= 2.6 | 20:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Starminn: http://www.computing.net/answers/hardware/ram-disappearing/44736.html | 20:31 |
| chronos | ouch | 20:32 |
| ChogyDan | chronos: I imagine that you could use pinning to force what you want, but... I think it is worth trying to figure out why your install is the way it is | 20:32 |
| OttifantSir | javahorn: I'm sorry, I'm counting myself as a learner yet. I don't know what could be causing your problems. Just seemed like an obvious question to ask. | 20:32 |

| Jordan_U | h_e_l_p: You can also always use alt+sysrq+k to kill the current tty. | 20:39 |

| oanf | ActionParsnip: how am I supposed to sudo without the password? | 20:40 |
| chronos | ChogyDan: when I do a apt-cache showpkg it says that py 2.6 is in deps | 20:41 |
| nit-wit | oanf, did you hit the shift imm on hitting start and hold it down? | 20:42 |
| oanf | nit-wit: I had to hold it for a while, but yes that worked | 20:42 |
| ActionParsnip | oanf: your user should have a password, you can set one by booting to root recovery mode and running: passwd foo (hold shift at boot, select recovery mode then set root) | 20:43 |
| oanf | I'm in grub recovery now :) | 20:43 |
| oanf | I was confused because it asked for esc | 20:43 |

| Starminn | Vitu: I can understand you quite well. | 20:59 |
| Jordan_U | Vitu: You can boot from the wubi root.disk file in vmware with some fiddling. | 20:59 |
| Andre_Re | xev sniffs the XF86AudioNext action but banshee does not react | 20:59 |
| Andre_Re | if i run "xte 'key XF86AudioNext'" directly, it works | 20:59 |
| Jordan_U | Vitu: The easiest way to do it would be to use the wubi root.disk file as a hard drive image and boot using a Super GRUB2 Disk iso as a virtual CDROM. | 21:00 |

| keke | i have a question. im a newbie at linux and ubuntu. im using YlmfOS (ubuntu based) in a virtual machine VMware. i already installed the system and its nice. and i add a new virtual hdd.it is shown as sdb ext4 formatted.the problem is when i try to copy some pictures etc to sdb ,an error occured "Permission denied" how can i change permission about sdb ? | 22:25 |
| keke | is anybody living there | 22:27 |
| aeon-ltd | keke: chmod or chown. a dirty work around but you could just use sudo to move them - that should work aswell | 22:27 |
| keke | what r the commands about this chmod or chown | 22:27 |
| aeon-ltd | keke: chmod and chown, changes permissions and owners respectively | 22:28 |
| keke | i understood aeon.but i ask how i give copying etc all permissions to my sdb | 22:29 |
| xrdodrx | how do I stop ubuntu's obnoxious update window from appearing and slowing my CPU to a halt at random times? | 22:29 |
| keke | by using chmod | 22:29 |

| aeon-ltd | keke: sudo chmod +rw /mnt/name-of-whatever-you-mounted-it-as | 22:30 |
| geirha | keke: sdb should only be writable to root. You need to change the permissions on the filesystem it contains, so mount it first, then use chown on the mount-point. | 22:30 |
| xrdodrx | xangua, ? | 22:30 |

| trism | xrdodrx: you can stop if from popping up the window automatically by unchecking: /apps/update-notifier/auto-launch in gconf-editor; it will show an icon in the notification area instead | 22:31 |
| mun24 | How can I install the new network card | 22:31 |
| geirha | keke: sudo chown "$USER:" /media/mountpoint # is probably enough | 22:31 |
| javahorn | maco: where to see, as i seem to have checked it | 22:31 |
| lala | thanks. | 22:31 |
| xrdodrx | trism, I'd rather it didn't even check, I prefer manual updates via apt-get update && upgrade | 22:31 |
| maco | javahorn: its to save battery when you unplug. you can set how much it dims by dragging a slider. i dont know what its called in the menu as i use kubuntu, but im sure you can find it. posibly by clicking the battery icon | 22:31 |
| xrdodrx | trism, the current system kills my CPU on my netbook at random times :) | 22:32 |

| keke | shown as mounted in /media/D2 and partition name as /dev/sdb1 | 22:36 |
| geirha | DanteX: It comes pre-installed with Transmission BitTorrent client. It does the job nicely. | 22:36 |
| boubou_ | hey guys, is that ok if i run apt-get upgrade ? | 22:37 |
| mike23pizzo | My appearance preference keeps reverting back to None...which is probably the reason of my other problem. Is there a know reason why it keeps reverting back to None? | 22:37 |
| Alexqw3 | DanteX: Transmission is quite nice. Though I like using rtorrent along with screen. It's CLI, but it makes it useful to connect to and monitor from anywhere. | 22:37 |
| geirha | keke: then sudo chown "$USER:" /media/D2 | 22:37 |
| geirha | keke: That will make you the owner | 22:38 |
| keke | Geirha: Ty it is working now.. i m copied right now.. | 22:38 |
| maco | javahorn: i think that'll only affect on the next unplug | 22:39 |
| maco | javahorn: dont you have buttons on the keyboard to change brightness? | 22:39 |
| boubou_ | is that ok if i do apt-get upgrade ???? | 22:39 |

| kefir | styluss: I found it was more stable to manually configure openvpn and run it as a service... couldn't find any useful logs for the gnome applet, but the openvpn log should be defined in the openvpn config, I guess | 22:49 |
| coz_ | mike23pizzo, did you get that? | 22:49 |

| raido | crimsonmane: oh, well thats not as likely a bios setting but at least you can rule it out by checking | 23:19 |
| crimsonmane | i'll check | 23:19 |
| mike23pizzo | coz_, I did that | 23:19 |
| mike23pizzo | coz_, got the results | 23:20 |
| crimsonmane | do you know of a way i can script the device to turn back on tho? | 23:20 |
| mman | [TK]D-Fender, 2.6.32-28 | 23:20 |
| arbitrator | So. . . anything? | 23:20 |
| [TK]D-Fender | mman: mine is 2.6.35-27-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP . Does yours still look like "latest" to you? | 23:20 |
| Francis | I just did apt-get install ubuntu-desktop on server 10.10, i got a mouse and a GUI style terminal, but no menus or desktop, how do i fix this? | 23:20 |

| [TK]D-Fender | mman: that's the latest STANDARD one for your release. But it isn't good enough. You need to jump the track entirely | 23:21 |
| keke | i have a question... the link is about how to add delete create partition .i knew them nice. i dont understand giving mount point to a created new partition.when i create a second partition and giving mount point "/home" to this partition makes /home folder as my D: drive like in windows OS.what r the similar folders as same in windows? ntldr ,boot.ini,ntdetect>grub (in a "boot" folder in ubuntu) Documents and Settings > /home, /home/username c:\windows | 23:21 |
| keke | > root ? | 23:21 |

| crimsonmane | speedtest.com | 23:22 |
| aazert | how to check that ? | 23:22 |
| keke | i dont understand giving mount point to a created new partition.when i create a second partition and giving mount point "/home" to this partition makes /home folder as my D: drive like in windows OS.what r the similar folders as same in windows? ntldr ,boot.ini,ntdetect>grub (in a "boot" folder in ubuntu) Documents and Settings > /home, /home/username c:\windows >root ? | 23:22 |
| coz_ | mike23pizzo, also pyton-compizconfig | 23:22 |
| coz_ | mike23pizzo, rather python-compizconfig | 23:22 |
| [TK]D-Fender | aazert: is that claim somewhere we can see? | 23:22 |
| crimsonmane | raido: the way i discovered this problem was downloading large files (WoW, torrents, Pandora) | 23:22 |
| mman | [TK]D-Fender, actually yes, but decided to go every two versions, so Im wating for 11.04 to come out | 23:22 |
| raido | crimsonmane: it craps out on large xfers??? | 23:22 |
| aazert | i neither asked that question to my host [TK]D-Fender | 23:22 |
| crimsonmane | aazert: speedtest.net i think | 23:22 |

| crimsonmane | raido: it doesn't crap out, it just quits doing its job. if i stay at the computer doing other things the net stays solid | 23:23 |
| [TK]D-Fender | aazert: that wasn't a question You said they CLAIM it. Where do they claim it? | 23:23 |

| crimsonmane | !ask | fx0 | 23:25 |
| ubottu | fx0: 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. :-) | 23:25 |

| coz_ | mike23pizzo, no go to system/preferences/appearance | 23:27 |
| crimsonmane | fx0 = troll. stated error, then asked how to resize. | 23:27 |
| mike23pizzo | coz_, ok I'm there | 23:27 |
| coz_ | mike23pizzo, in the visual effects tab click "Extra" | 23:27 |
| raido | crimsonmane: loosly termed for anything that sticks out from a USB port. | 23:27 |
| fx0 | nvm that error , that was a new question | 23:27 |
| mman | [TK]D-Fender, guess im upgrading to 10.10 and then 11.04 | 23:27 |

| crimsonmane | fx0: System > Appearance | 23:28 |
| coz_ | mike23pizzo, there you go | 23:28 |
| [TK]D-Fender | mman: Many different reasons. part of the xorg and underly bits are performance based, etc. Unity helps them merge their netbook & desktop to a "unified" experience and create a common motif, etc.... | 23:28 |
| mike23pizzo | coz_, Thank you so much. I would have NEVER been able to do that on my own | 23:28 |
| coz_ | mike23pizzo, you are free and clear to m ake settings changes so have fun :) | 23:28 |

| KUN | I have problems to put new songs | 23:28 |
| [TK]D-Fender | mman: And many other points I'm not fully aware of | 23:29 |
| mike23pizzo | coz_, I wish I could give you something in return. Thank you so so so so so much! | 23:29 |
| coz_ | mike23pizzo, a thanks is fine | 23:29 |
| Francis | desktop os isn't a choice its on a vps | 23:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Francis: I see | 23:29 |
| mman | [TK]D-Fender, hope its for good :D | 23:29 |
| fx0 | crimsonmane>: there is nothing there about resizing to 800x600 | 23:29 |
| coz_ | mike23pizzo, before you attempt to remove applications I suggest coming here and discussing it first :) | 23:29 |
| nimrod10 | aazert, check ubuntu-server channel | 23:29 |
| [TK]D-Fender | mman: It will annoy some, excite others, etc. It'll be divisive to a point, but there is potential for all projects to come out ahead with it. We'll all jsut have to sit back and see | 23:29 |

| ActionParsnip | Francis: press ALT+f2 and run: nautilus do you see things happening? | 23:30 |

| KUN | no one? | 23:30 |
| [TK]D-Fender | [18:28]<aazert>well my question is : is there any command the bandwith speed <- any kind of transfer that reports back a speed. Like FTP | 23:30 |

| shawnboy | If I could print an envelope... | 23:31 |
| mman | [TK]D-Fender, thanks for ur help | 23:31 |
| coz_ | mike23pizzo, the other alternative for learning is to go ahead and experiment with the system and if it screws up .. make notes,, and reinstall :) | 23:32 |
| crimsonmane | aazert: there is command line bandwidth check. are you just trying to make sure you're getting the speed you subscribed to? if so, speedtest.net or something. i don't recall the command, i just know i did it before... like almost a year ago | 23:32 |
| aazert | oh, yeah, but wanna mesure speed in a other way [TK]D-Fender | 23:32 |
| shawnboy | then my envelope would be printed. | 23:32 |
| coz_ | mike23pizzo, other wise...dont hesitate to come here and ask questions,,,its why we are here | 23:32 |
| mman | [TK]D-Fender, aaa by the way, how do u become a ubuntu member? | 23:32 |
| [TK]D-Fender | mman: np, hope your upgrade goes well and things work as expected. I myself intend to install 11.04 on a separate system to test first | 23:32 |

| shawnboy | and I wouldn't need to print the envelope any more... | 23:32 |

| ActionParsnip | KUN: did you put them in the songs folder? | 23:33 |
| shawnboy | which is why I am here, in IRC land, asking how to print an envelope | 23:33 |
| mman | [TK]D-Fender, haha thanks any way my friend ;) | 23:34 |
| KUN | ActionParsnip: yeah!!! but when I search the folder , Fofix show me empty the folder of the song | 23:34 |
| shawnboy | Imagine what kind of world this would be if nobody could print an envelope. | 23:34 |
| shawnboy | pretty sad, when you think about it. | 23:34 |
| KUN | ActionParsnip: and folder have .ogg and .ini files | 23:34 |
| KUN | ActionParsnip: It could be possible a lack of packet?? i.e. python-pyaudio? | 23:35 |
| shawnboy | I guess when a Microsoft using friend asks about moving to Linux, I'll have to say, "I'd think twice if you ever have to print an evelope." | 23:36 |
| ActionParsnip | KUN: gimme a sec, let me drag up my backup | 23:36 |
| KUN | ActionParsnip: ok :) | 23:37 |
| KUN | ActionParsnip: keep googling | 23:37 |

| [TK]D-Fender | shawnboy: perhaps you could also elaborate on "screws it all up" and also add what equipement you're using, etc | 23:46 |
| cyfu | but it is working in windows | 23:46 |
| Pumpkin- | bezao: generally not. Check in /etc/shadow and you will see the accounts aren't things you can log into normally. | 23:46 |
| KUN | ActionParsnip: Have you FOF too?? | 23:46 |
| shawnboy | [TK]D-Fender: Appreciate your attention. Running Lucid. Dell Laser 1720 using Dell suggested generic PCL 6 driver in Ubuntu. | 23:46 |
| ActionParsnip | KUN: not sure dude, I always installed frets on fire from the repo then copied over my alarian mod over | 23:47 |
| shawnboy | [text is misaligned in every way, vertically, horizontally, and going in 180 deg wrong direction for what printer says should. | 23:47 |
| ActionParsnip | cyfu: slam in a disk ad ru: sudo mount /dev/fd0 | 23:47 |
| ActionParsnip | ru == run | 23:47 |
| shawnboy | [TK]D-Fender: response to you ^^^^ | 23:48 |
| KUN | ActionParsnip: good option | 23:48 |
| KUN | ActionParsnip: a question about FOF...I wasn't able to put new songs too in FOF, lways same error of permission..why?? | 23:49 |
| desu | people still use floppy disks? o.o | 23:49 |
| shawnboy | [TK]D-Fender: I suspect part of prob is in printer properties (in OO) there isn't envelope available as choice in paper size, but it should be. | 23:49 |
| [TK]D-Fender | shawnboy: http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/software-os/f/3526/p/19078079/19201065.aspx | 23:49 |
| cyfu | yes they do | 23:49 |
| [TK]D-Fender | shawnboy: Seems that its screws up even on Windows. Looks like a lemon product | 23:49 |
| KUN | ActionParsnip: make sudo Nautilus, copy song folder and when I'm on play...error of permission :( | 23:49 |
| [TK]D-Fender | shawnboy: All of the same probelms as you've described | 23:50 |
| [TK]D-Fender | shawnboy: Dell = suck.... | 23:50 |
| ActionParsnip | KUN: don't use sudo with nautilus | 23:50 |
| ActionParsnip | [TK]D-Fender: only in printers ;) | 23:50 |
| [TK]D-Fender | ActionParsnip: Servers = meh ... IBM :) | 23:51 |
| ActionParsnip | KUN: I would chmod and chown the folder so your user has full access | 23:51 |
| KUN | ActionParsnip: everybody in web tells you need to make sudo | 23:51 |
| ActionParsnip | [TK]D-Fender: dude, i've used both dell and ibm servers, drac is amazing! ibm servers suck in my experience, so much effort | 23:52 |
| KUN | ActionParsnip: chmod command and chown command??? interesting | 23:52 |
| [TK]D-Fender | ActionParsnip: Roll of the dice with any I guess.... is it still cool to shit all over HP? ;) | 23:53 |
| ActionParsnip | KUN: yes and they are morons, i tell every one I see, use gksudo with GUI apps to get extra access. If you don't you will change the ownership of ~/.ICEauthority and you will have issues | 23:53 |
| S2Do | Ubottu: md5 check matches. Any suggestion? How can I start the installation in textmode? | 23:53 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:53 |
| Alexander_ | Can somebody help me? | 23:53 |
| === andrea is now known as Guest863 | ||
| ActionParsnip | [TK]D-Fender: indeed :), I was managing Dell servers flawlessly in Florida from the UK. Now I work in the same building and I have to do so much more leg work with the damn things | 23:53 |
| Alexander_ | I need Ubuntu drivers for my laptop's camera/mic. | 23:54 |
| ActionParsnip | Alexander_: install and run cheese, do you see yourself | 23:54 |
| Alexander_ | ? | 23:54 |
| shawnboy | [TK]D-Fender: 2 observations re: that link: 1. Envelopes print flawlessly from XPx64 machine using Word 2003. 2. Sort of similar to thread you pasted, I can get env to print "acceptably" by exporting to PDF then printing from PDF software in Ubuntu. | 23:54 |
| Alexander_ | Cheese? | 23:54 |
| ActionParsnip | !info cheese | Alexander_ | 23:54 |
| ubottu | Alexander_: cheese (source: cheese): A tool to take pictures and videos from your webcam. In component main, is optional. Version 2.32.0-0ubuntu1 (maverick), package size 61 kB, installed size 260 kB | 23:54 |
| === FiReSTaRT is now known as Guest73235 | ||
| ActionParsnip | Alexander_: yes, cheese | 23:55 |
| Alexander_ | A | 23:55 |
| Alexander_ | I already know that I need the drivers. | 23:55 |
| [TK]D-Fender | shawnboy: sounds like they aren perhaps not following specs too well... and their drive quality will vary, etc | 23:55 |
| shawnboy | [TK]D-Fender: From Evince, paper size in printer settings DOES show 10 envelope and will even let me define custom paper size. Neither so in OO. | 23:55 |
| ActionParsnip | Alexander_: then why did you question, if you know it? | 23:55 |
| S2Do | ActionParsnip: md5 check matches. Any suggestion? How can I start installation in textmode? | 23:55 |
| Alexander_ | Pidgin's webcam won't work. | 23:55 |
| KUN | ActionParsnip: take note about gksudo command ; ) and how have I use chmod command? | 23:55 |
| ActionParsnip | S2Do: use the alternate installer maybe | 23:55 |
| Alexander_ | <Alexander_> I need Ubuntu drivers for my laptop's camera/mic. | 23:55 |
| [TK]D-Fender | shawnboy: Also, LibreOffice is the new "black" | 23:56 |
| Alexander_ | I need the drivers, where can I get them? | 23:56 |
| shawnboy | [TK]D-Fender: or OO is maybe fudging their printer module? | 23:56 |
| ActionParsnip | KUN: read samples online, you can give your user owner of the folders and data | 23:56 |
| crimsonmane | Alexander: look up Jasper | 23:56 |
| shawnboy | LibreOffice? | 23:56 |
| [TK]D-Fender | shawnboy: Printing should be agnostic and left to CUPS | 23:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Alexander_: you dodnt answer my question | 23:56 |
| [TK]D-Fender | shawnboy: But consider that it is a multi-platform issue.... | 23:56 |
| shawnboy | [TK]D-Fender: strange then, that it works (basically) from Evince but not OO. | 23:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Alexander_: does cheese show you a picture of yourself? | 23:57 |
| Alexander_ | Jasper? | 23:57 |
| Alexander_ | Let me check. | 23:57 |
| crimsonmane | jasper is the backbone for webcams | 23:57 |
| === F|ReSTaRT is now known as FiReSTaRT | ||
| KUN | ActionParsnip: ok dude!!! thanks for your help and info!! keep trying or will try FOF+alarian mod | 23:57 |
| Alexander_ | so | 23:57 |
| shawnboy | [TK]D-Fender: I think I read somewhere that Fedora has no probs. So maybe it's just one of those things. Software planets must all be aligned. | 23:58 |
| Alexander_ | where do I get jasper? | 23:58 |
| crimsonmane | i remember getting it via command line... one sec | 23:58 |
| claudio196 | Hello all. I have a boot problem with the latest maverick kernel update. The pc hangs after running /scriots/init-bottom. I reinstalled upstart, initscripts, initramfs-tools (as chroot), etc but I'm still stuck at init-bottom. Any suggestions? | 23:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Alexander_: also can you use http://pastie.org and give the output of: lsusb Thanks | 23:58 |
| MarkB | Is Logitech Webcam drivers compatible with Xubuntu? | 23:58 |
| MarkB | Or Linux period. | 23:59 |
| shawnboy | [TK]D-Fender: LibreOffice... that the one I've heard of that sort of broke off from OpenOffice? | 23:59 |
| ActionParsnip | MarkB: depends on the chi pinside | 23:59 |
| MarkB | ActionParsnip: What do you mean? | 23:59 |
| ActionParsnip | shawnboy: its an openoffice fork | 23:59 |
| shawnboy | ActionParsnip: should I avoid at this point, you think? (stability-wise?) | 23:59 |
