Red-Ravenhey.00:38
kristian-aalborganyone else having flash trouble tonight (more than usual)?00:52
kristian-aalborgah, nm... off to bed - see ya00:53
Red-Ravenwhat's the command to connect to a local ssh server? isn't it just localhost?01:14
Red-Ravenhey nit-wit!01:14
nit-withey hows it going?01:15
Red-Ravennot bad. having to get used to linux again after being gone for so long. lot of personal projects kept me away for a while, but now i'm back on the ssh server.01:16
geirhassh localhost01:18
nit-witas long as your happy that is what counts.:)01:18
Red-Ravenwell im definatly glad to be back. the personal projects were a lot of fun though and im still no where near done with them all.01:19
Red-Raventhanks geirha.01:19
Red-Ravenssh -p 56 localhost lets you join the local host under port 56 right?01:22
geirhaYes, it connects to port 56 instead of the default, 22.01:24
Red-Ravenweird....now i can't even connect locally....01:24
geirhaIs the server listening on that port?   sudo fuser -v 56/tcp01:26
Red-RavenUSER      PID ACCESS COMMAND (1st line)  56/tcp: root 607 F....sshd (2nd line)01:27
geirhaRight, so there's an sshd process listening on port 56.01:28
geirhaThen it's refusing you access for whatever reason.01:28
Red-Ravenhm.... a problem on the client or router?01:29
geirhaadd -v to the ssh command to get verbose output.01:29
geirhaAdd additional -v's to get even more verbose output01:29
geirhaIt should tell you why the server is refusing you access.01:30

Red-Ravenno. i was using 56 as an example. in reality i was using 84, which shouldn't make a difference.01:32

NJSchultz07hello. I need a hand install the /boot file onto a hard drive seperate from ubuntu in order to get a dualboot windows system working05:00
bioterrorI have windows and ubuntu on same hard drive and the dual boot works just fine05:02
bioterrorso what's your problem?05:03
NJSchultz07grub2 is not loading at boot up.05:04
NJSchultz07I know why. and what to change to fix it, just not how to fix it.05:04
bioterrorcopy your /boot to another partition05:06
bioterroror drive what ever05:06
NJSchultz07I'm not sure how to do that properly05:06
bioterrorsudo blkid05:06
bioterrortake the UUID05:06
bioterrorsudo nano /etc/fstab05:06
NJSchultz07i'm sorry i'm very new to all this. UUID?05:07
bioterrorUUID=<insert your partitions uuid where boot lies now> /boot ext4 defaults 0 105:07
bioterror!uuid05:07
ubot2To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)05:07
NJSchultz07ok i've got the uuid05:09
bioterrorbut I have to flee to train05:10
bioterrorJackyAlcine or someone else will assist you ;)05:10
NJSchultz07ok, thanks05:10
NJSchultz07jackyalcine, bioterror said you could help.05:11
JackyAlcineHey NJSchultz07, I can.05:12
JackyAlcineDo you have another disk or free partition that you can copy the boot folder to?05:12
NJSchultz07i do. the windows hard drive has two partitions, one for OS and the other for files. I was thinking the files partition?05:13
=== MrAnthrope is now known as Omsniffiscent
JackyAlcineWell, like bioterror had mentioned; running sudo nano /etc/fstab would open a terminal text-editor that shows the partition mount on boot.05:16
NJSchultz07yeah, i've opened that but i'm not really sure what to do with it.05:17
Omsniffiscentctrl+z lol05:18
NJSchultz07what did opening that up do?05:18
Omsniffiscenterr ctrl+x05:19
NJSchultz07ok. that exited out of it. z happened to do the same as x05:20
JackyAlcineNJSchultz07: It displays the UUIDs so when you use the 'sudo blkid -U <UUID>' command, you could find the UNIX path (ie: /dev/sda1)05:20
NJSchultz07I thought blkid displayed that already05:21
NJSchultz07i'm sorry. I learn quick but i am rather new at all this05:21
JackyAlcineNJSchultz07: It did, when provided the UUID, but this is so you can easily do a 'cp -f' (recursive copy)05:22
OmsniffiscentI'm sorry I wasn't being helpful, I was being humorous. :(05:22
bioterror!fstab | NJSchultz0705:23
ubot2NJSchultz07: 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 !Partitions05:23
NJSchultz07ok. so once i've opened fstab, then what?05:24
bioterroryou add the uuid line05:24
bioterrorwith you uuid05:24
NJSchultz07does it matter where the uuid line is in the file? top/bottom? and just to clarifly, this is the UUID of the drive the /boot is currently on?05:25
bioterrori place them under /05:29
NJSchultz07ok. could you please give me the format what what to type again, i believe you said it started with UUID=05:30
bioterrorUUID=<insert your partitions uuid where boot lies now> /boot ext4 defaults 0 105:31
NJSchultz07should the UUID and EXT4 have parentheses around them as they did in blkid?05:32
NJSchultz07if no, then thats done and that line has been entered05:33
bioterroris your new /boot partition ext4 or what?05:33
NJSchultz07ntfs05:34
bioterrorhaha05:34
bioterrorsorry05:34
NJSchultz07not gonna work?05:34
bioterrorthat wont work05:35
NJSchultz07I know when I installed ubuntu it was able to resize an existing ntfs partition, could i simply create a small partition on the primary hard drive in ext4 to put the boot onto?05:35
bioterror100MB is enuff for the /boot05:36
bioterroras therres only few kernels05:36
NJSchultz07ok. I tried to resize the partition in gparted, but seemed to be having some problems getting it to work05:37
bioterrorbut idont understand why you cant boot05:37
bioterrorwhats your problem05:37
bioterrorlike for real05:37
bioterrornow after this worthless hustle05:37
NJSchultz07i cant boot because ubuntu is on a SATA HD hooked up through a PCI card. my computer is old and the BIOS doesnt recognize my second SATA HD on boot up, only my initial IDE HD05:38
NJSchultz07i have the latest BIOS05:39
bioterrorditch the windows :D05:39
bioterrori would use that kind of pci card drives as a storage space05:40
NJSchultz07yeah, I was just hoping to get this figured out easily rather than have to back everything up and reinstall both windows and ubuntu05:41
bioterrormy life is peaceful as i have one computer, one os05:42
NJSchultz07my desktop is windows, my laptop is back, and now i'm trying linux. life is not so peaceful. haha05:43
NJSchultz07laptop is mac*05:43
bioterrorthat pci card really makes things a little complicated05:45
NJSchultz07yeah. but 2TB IDE HD's aren't that common, and I already had the SATA card for flashing dvd drives05:45
bioterrorbut you can try to boot live media, run gparted and resize / partition to get 100MB for a new boot05:46
NJSchultz07yeah. I'm having trouble resizing the NTFS at all. the partition i'm trying to resize is about 170GB and I know it has just over 70Gb free.05:48
bioterrorand remember to run grub-install /dev/hda05:50
bioterrori think hda is your primary disk05:50
NJSchultz07I think its sda for me, but yes.05:50
bioterrorthe one that bios finds05:52
NJSchultz07yeah05:52
bioterrorahhh laters, ive arrived to my destination05:52

OmsniffiscentDo you have the Compiz Configuration Settings Manager installed?06:41
updawgzyeah06:41
updawgzthats what caused it lol06:41

holsteinjohnny77: how do you get it to connect?14:57

johnny77no encryption14:59

holsteinjust as a trouble-shooting step14:59
holsteinand since MAC address filtering is not that great anyways15:00
holsteinbut, i think you are on the right track15:00
holsteinseems like its something in the buntu machine...15:00

holsteinVIA graphics chip in there too15:12
holsteinused to be a total PITA15:12
johnny77I had to install the drivers with a b43fwcutter I think it was called.15:13
holsteinthats the kind of device that really shows what the ubuntu kernel team is up to :)15:13
holsteinjohnny77: when i go to the 'restricted drivers' app15:13
holsteinor whatever the kids are calling it these days15:13
holstein*this was from 10.0415:13
holsteinthere were 2 drivers availalbe15:14
johnny77holstein: on a good note, I was told the HD was corrupted and I needed a new one.15:14
holsteinand open and closed one15:14
holsteinboth with different 'issues'15:14
holsteini always tried the open one15:14
holsteinand went to the other one if needed15:14
holsteinjohnny77: is that the case for your hardware?15:15
holstein2 driver options?15:15
holsteinused to be funky back in 9.1015:15
holsteinthere was a patch to fix something buggy15:15
holsteinlike resuming from standby and wifi15:15
johnny77holstein: not that I recall. I was looking at a page that said if I had this chipset I needed to use this driver. I don't think there were options.15:16
holsteinits easy for a wiki page to become totally irrelavant15:16
holsteinquick too15:16
holsteinnew kernel rev can totally change the game for device support15:17
holsteinjohnny77: is this you?15:18
holsteinhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx15:18
holsteinim using the STA drivers now15:19
johnny77holstein: Yes, and I have the BCM4306/2 and installed it per directions below, under b43 no internet.15:21
holsteinok15:22
holsteintry the other one then15:22
johnny77you mean the STA driver?15:22
holsteinyup15:23
holsteinwhy not, right?15:23
johnny77holstein: I guess so.15:23
johnny77looking back over the direction, I do not remember doing step on under b43 - no internet access. Not sure what it is doing there. Could that be the problem?15:24
holsteinjohnny77: plausible i suppose15:26
holsteini gotta run15:26
holsteinbut, i think this is where you need to be15:27
johnny77holstein: ok, thanks for the help..15:27

holsteinthrough a few buntu releases15:27

seidosanyone here using empathy?16:50

seidosMrChrisDruif: but the motus believe empathy > xchat16:51
seidosempathy supports multiple protocols16:52
MrChrisDruifWooow....empathy better than xchat? =-O16:52
charlie-tcaIt is still an opinion, isn't it?16:52
MrChrisDruifseidos: So does Pidgin :)16:52
seidosempathy supports mutliple protocols16:52
seidosMrChrisDruif: ask in motu16:52
seidosMrChrisDruif: #ubuntu-motu16:52
charlie-tcaXubuntu believes in xchat and pidgin, but does not include empathy by default. That would seem to point a different way to me.16:52
seidosbelief is sufficient?16:52
MrChrisDruifseidos: It's not a question, I know Pidgin does support multiple-protocols :D16:53
seidoswhy did motu select empathy?16:53
seidoself, not trolling16:53
charlie-tcaThose are still people in #ubuntu-motu, and entitled to their opinions.16:53
seidosgot entitlement?16:56
* charlie-tca shrugs, pretty sure you can find people anyway that will insist on a client being the absolute best for IRC.16:56
seidoswho decided empathy was best for ubuntu?16:57
seidoshow can i ask them charlie-tca ?16:57

mongoxgood nite everyone, when i read that support for older machines in 10.10 has been droped, what machines they mean ? PIII or or even older ?20:57
holsteinmongox: where is that link?21:06
holsteinprobably older hardware from the kernel21:06
javatexanis there a pdf authoring program where you take a pdf template and make changes to it?21:07
holsteinhttp://www.ubuntugeek.com/list-of-pdf-editing-tools-for-ubuntu.html21:07
javatexancool, is there an API I can learn to work with the pdf documents too?21:08
mongoxthis is the piece i read and i start to wonder "As support for i586 chipsets has been dropped from the kernel for the 10.10 series (These include VIA C3, AMD K6, National Semiconductor and AMD Geode) "21:12
mongoxmaybe is hardware that has nothingh to do with personal computers lol21:14
holsteinyou can always build your own kernel21:18
holsteinif you need support for something the ubuntu kernel doesnt have21:18
holsteinand backports are usually handy21:19
mongoxerr, ok!21:19
mongoxsorry i feel like when human talk to dogs .. but is fine21:20
mongoxfor some reason i was installing a 10.10 to my old pc and did not work21:20
mongoxi found a old cd with 10.04 and voila21:20
mongoxi was wondering if that have something to do21:20
holsteinmongox: yeah21:22
holsteindifferent kernel21:22
metta!panels21:24
ubot2To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel »21:24
mettai created this:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/gnome-panel#preview21:24
mongoxthat means that next time i update "the kernel" my ubuntu is going to be dead ?21:25
holsteinmongox: not in 10.0421:26
holsteinshouldnt be21:26
davidl_Another question...  (Ubuntu 10.04) How would I add linux-headers-virtual, open-vm-dkms, and open-vm-tools to an iso I'm using, and make sure they're included in the install?   :D21:27
holsteindavidl_: i think im going to try remastersys again21:31
holsteinthere is an ubuntu customization kit21:31
holsteini didnt like it though21:31
holsteinthe big kids use a chroot i believe21:32
holsteinto build the install, and make the iso from it21:32
davidl_I'm little... I was hoping I could just mount iso, copy files to it, edit some kind of script that calls for which packages are installed and be done.21:33
holsteinwell, kind of21:33
holsteinwith the chroot21:33
holsteini think its more like that21:33
mongox@ holstein that means everytime i do updates and kernel updates & stuff , my "ubuntu" stay in 10.04 ? and is going to be working21:34
holsteincheck out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization davidl_21:34
davidl_cool... thx21:34
davidl_holstein: is that the customization kit you didn't like to much?21:35
holsteindavidl_: nah21:38
holsteinthat link is more about chroot21:38
holsteinthe kit is called uck i think21:38
holsteinwas in the repos21:38
holsteinworth a look i suppose21:38
