[00:00] Hi, Reinstall with live cd after broke my bootloader. How can I test It will work or not ? [00:00] ilovefairuz, can I add you to friends? [00:01] Nighthawk``: if you don't need 3d acceleration, try disabling the driver in the window you had in the screenshot, reboot and tets [00:01] battlehands: sure [00:01] got an odd question, I have two dual psx controller adapters ?(giving a total of 4 ports ) [00:01] what does -fr stand for? [00:01] is the remove command? [00:02] ilovefairuz, how can i see the log of linux when he starts, cause i think he wrote me "unable to load 3d acceleration".. [00:02] these adapters are mounted internally and conected to a usb header on the mother board, i want to set udev rules to make them js0-3 statically so i can set up game sto allways use the correct controller [00:02] battlehands: -f means force removal (of non empty directories contained inside) and -r means work recursively [00:02] ilovefairuz, I tried that command, but it deleted the whole folder. [00:02] battlehands: then you missed the /* at the very end of the command [00:02] problem is that since they are dual adapters they only have one usb address, any way to get around this limitation for setting the udev rules? [00:02] battlehands: "man rm" [00:03] Is there a way to get nm-applet to run in the awn bar? [00:03] Chipzzz, is that an undo command? [00:04] battlehands: no, 'man' is short for manual, a sort of a help page for shell commands [00:04] battlehands: no, it's the manual page... I mentioned it because it's very useful for many situations [00:04] battlehands: press q after you finish reading to exit [00:04] Chipzzz, ilovefairuz thanks [00:05] ilovefairuz, I deleted my "Downloads" folder. How do I get it back? [00:05] battlehands: you can't.. [00:06] lololol [00:06] ilovefairuz, can I create a new folder and specify for firefox to dl into that folder by default? === switch is now known as [switch] [00:06] battlehands: if you just trashed it, look in the trash folder [00:06] ilovefairuz, and will Downloads now be deleted in my Ubuntu One? [00:06] battlehands: alt+f2, trash:// [00:06] and press enter [00:07] battlehands: i don't use ubuntu one [00:07] no [00:07] Is there a GUI way of changing screen resolution on Ubuntu 10.10 running inside WMware Player? [00:07] its not in trash [00:07] ilovefairuz, what do you use? Dropbox? === IanWizard is now known as juniour_high [00:07] battlehands: nope, just ssh [00:07] ilovefairuz, whats ssh? [00:07] !ssh | battlehands [00:07] battlehands: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage.

That is weird, it wasn't there earlier. I saw it on a tutorial online too.... [00:10] battlehands: yes and it's pre-installed, but you need to buy a hosting space supporting ssh to transfer your files there [00:10] so much ubuntu to learn in one day [00:11] ilovefairuz, I have hosting space for my company. Can I use that space? [00:11] battlehands: if it supports ssh, then yes, check Places > Connect to, you'll find SSH in the drop down list [00:12] battlehands: or, type "ssh mysite.com" [00:13] has anyone gotten ExpressCard/34 USB 3.0 working in ubuntu? running 10.10x64 [00:13] ilovefairuz, I dont know what info to fill into the SHH selection [00:14] battlehands: ask your system administrator or hosting company to provide you with the appropriate data for your hosting space [00:15] battlehands: it's different for everybody [00:15] ilovefairuz, ok. brb [00:15] wiki [00:16] sorry wrong window [00:16] is it possible to change the size of my persistency without reinstall ubuntu on my pendrive?

[00:20] violinappren, thanks [00:20] Chipzzz: metta. that was worth two pennies to me. how much are pennies worth right now? [00:21] lol@metta [00:21] pennies are worth $1 in the future [00:21] violinappren, why did you switch names? [00:21] can a WUSB device be "unmounted" and "mounted" manually? [00:22] Chipzzz: if you ever get bored, hit me up in #ubuntu-offtopic [00:22] battlehands: internet disconnection [00:22] violinappren, k [00:22] what is fucking up?

Im on hold with GoDaddy. They host my site. I will see if it is included in my package. [00:24] yes [00:24] I am using linksys [00:24] dejan_: return your item to the store ASAP [00:24] um but I have hp laptopt my router is linksys [00:24] Can I grant www-data sudo for just 1 directory? [00:24] oh [00:24] no my network card is hp [00:24] i meant the wireless card... nevermind then [00:24] :) [00:25] :S [00:25] oh [00:25] dejan_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [00:25] I set mac address block but I see i log strange ips :( [00:25] can a WUSB device be "unmounted" and "mounted" manually? [00:25] okey... one more question... how to line up ls -l results?... === KB1JWQ is now known as user [00:26] acovrig: what? do you mean changing a directory ownership to www-data? sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /path/to/directory [00:26] is my wireless router protected if I set mac address blocks for other mac addresses then my laptop? [00:26] dejan_: not against mac spoofing [00:26] violinappren: no, sadly, I want to be able to exec a .rb or .php file and have it mount something, but I don't think it'd be a good idea to chown www-data /media :( [00:26] dejan_: any protection without using WPA2 is now useless [00:27] crimsonmane: it's prolly easiest to edit your /etc/network/interfaces file with the correct essid, key & mode === Freejack is now known as Guest33491 [00:27] I think maybe wpa on the router is wpa 1 and ubutu have some bugs with it? [00:27] dejan_: changing you mac address is one command line : sudo ifconfig eth0 hw ethernet 00:11:22:33:44:55 [00:27] acovrig: use sudo rules [00:27] Chipzzz: may i private message you ? [00:27] I am sure that i cant connect to it only after I set wpa hm [00:27] hi folks, having a problem downloading .iso files, ubuntu 10.04 lts; system freezes after 150 -300 mb [00:27] sure [00:27] dejan_: s/ethernet/ether [00:27] is it possible to change the size of my persistency without reinstall ubuntu on my pendrive? [00:27] yes nameless maybe my neighbours are hackers: ) === user is now known as KB1JWQ [00:28] linxeh: let me guess visudo: www-data ALL:NOPASSWD /bin/mount [00:28] I saw 3 ip addresses connected on my router after i set mac address block :)) [00:28] acovrig: well, I was going to suggest more restrictive, but something along those lines [00:28] how could I test to see if java applet can play/record audio? [00:29] linxeh: can I restrict to 1 directory-so that only works if its being run from one directory? [00:29] Hello [00:30] acovrig: didn't get your question [00:30] What are the paritioning suggestions? [00:31] acovrig: I havent done it for a long time, but I think you should be able to set it to just let www-data run your script as root (which you chown to own as root so nobody can edit it), and have the script do the mounting [00:31] th3Unk0wn: there would be a swap partition, a boot partittion, and a data partition. I always take the suggested layout. [00:32] okay, Champagne what about the size of those partitions? [00:32] plz hold. [00:32] np === th0r1 is now known as tth0r === tth0r is now known as th0r [00:33] linxeh: good idea, since this isn't a good idea: NOPASSWD: /sbin/fdisk,/bin/ln,/bin/mount,/bin/rm [00:33] is there a command that simulates activity that will prevent ubuntu from suspending due to inactivity? i want to write a script to run every 1 minute that checks if Samba is currently active, and if so, prevent sleep [00:34] Aikar: there should be an option to turn off idle behavior, but the devs apparently disagreed :( [00:34] crimsonmane: i want my pc to go to sleep, just, it goes to sleep while im accessing a sambashare from another PC [00:34] How can I permanently increase "ulimit -n"? I can easily set it once, but it doesn't survive reboot. [00:34] Aikar: that's what i'm sayin. we werent given an option and it makes me sad [00:36] davidstrauss: /etc/security/limits.conf [00:36] !ulimit [00:38] crimsonmane, Is that bot command supposed to do something? [00:38] crimsonmane, ah [00:38] I'm interested in moving to a fully linux environment for Rails 3 coding, and was wondering which Ubuntu flavor i should go with? 10.04 or 10.10? [00:38] it's a dictionary thing... it tole me it didn't know anything about it. [00:38] should i stick with LTS until the next LTS comes out for coding purposes? [00:39] manoot-home: yes [00:39] davidstrauss: man limits.conf [00:39] hmm [00:39] thanks crimson figured as much just don't have much experience with debian/ubuntu. mostly CentOS [00:40] th3Unknown, with very large hard drives, putting most of linux in one partition is probably what you want to do. [00:40] manoot-home: as a dev id prolly suggest 10.10, isnt LTS locked to only security updates? 10.10 will give you more up to date apps [00:40] however there are some exceptions. [00:40] violinappren, I added this (http://pastie.org/1630777) to my limits.conf file, but I still get 1024 for ulimit -n [00:40] pac1: k thanks [00:41] linxeh: sadly that didn't work, any other ideas? [00:41] I always put home on a separate partition. That way I can switch between distributions or versions of linux without losing all my stuff. [00:41] th3Unk0wn: OK. I think the swap partition is equal to the RAM size. The boot partition is 5031 blocks. I don't know how to translate blocks to GB [00:41] Great idea [00:41] Isn't there a command line argument that causes a continuously updating reading on the command? Like, if I wanted to continuously watch the output of the command "sensors", how would I do that? [00:41] tail -f [00:42] th3Unknown, swap slightly larger than your memory, but it doesn't really matter that much. [00:42] hey [00:42] davidstrauss: log out and back in [00:42] ulimit is hard coded lol [00:42] can someone help me with bringing up a degraded raid1 when the remaining HD in question has evidently lost its superblocks? [00:42] I definitively have problem accessing wifi router when I set up wpa key [00:42] You need enough swap so you can run lots of memory hogging applications at the same time... but who does that. [00:43] Firefox ? [00:43] my swap usually stays idle, while 4g of memory rarely gets filled up. [00:43] why can this happen anyone have issue access wireless router with hp laptop with wpa key? [00:43] 3 words: Solid state drives. [00:43] :P [00:43] anyone know how to monitor swap activity? [00:43] ulimit is definately a first for ircd's you should ask someone who runs a irc network they do that all the time :P [00:43] pac1 [00:43] how to setup swap memory on install? [00:43] is it possible to change the size of my persistency without reinstall ubuntu on my pendrive? [00:43] i set swap 0 becasue i didnt knew how to set up swap.. [00:44] dejan, you can always add swap [00:44] also what kind of format you used for formating? fat32 or..? [00:44] swap is just an empty partition. [00:44] no file system, just a bunch of blocks. [00:44] i dont know what is best I set first formating option and no swap :S [00:44] dejan, do you have empty space on your hd? [00:44] swap is like the equivalant to windows pagefile [00:44] pac1 how? [00:44] exactly [00:44] violinappren, Is there a special case for root being limited to 1024? [00:44] hi [00:45] Locutus_of_Borg: man watch [00:45] violinappren, Normal users get the right ulimit on login. root doesn't. [00:45] use gparted to examine your disks [00:45] yes i have empty space [00:45] free -s 5 Display memory usage every 5 seconds continuously [00:45] how many disks dejan_? [00:45] 1 [00:45] ok [00:45] how many partitions on it? [00:45] 1 partition [00:45] violinappren, Ive been on the line with tech support at godaddy. My hosting does support SSH, and we are setting up my FTP. [00:45] ok so linux only. [00:45] right? [00:45] yes yes [00:45] ok. [00:46] i just deleted everything i have only linux os [00:46] you probably used the whole thing for your partition. Which type of file system do you have? [00:46] i'm trying to get my wifi card to work on ubuntu 10.10. on boot i get the error iwlagn request for firmware file 'iwlwifi-6000g2b-5.ucode' failed. Does anyone know how i can fix this? [00:46] i d idnt knew how to make swap when i formated my disk with ubuntu [00:46] davidstrauss: perhaps it gets amended in .bashrc or .profile [00:46] i have first type [00:46] journnal..4 something :) [00:46] battlehands: good then [00:46] sry i don;t remember right name I have no idea what is the difference between different formating [00:47] violinappren, it can take 30 min to 24 hours. Im going to take a break and go study until I receive that email. See you then! [00:47] battlehands: good luck === fisted_ is now known as fisted [00:47] would appreciate any help anyone can give me in bringing up a degraded raid1 array where the remaining drive has lost its superblocks... nothing seems to work -_- [00:47] I will learn about those things but the things what bothers me this day is the issue with wifi router [00:48] dejan_ there's two approaches. 1 Reinstall after saving the files you want to keep, making partitions for linux, home and swap 2 resizing the partition you have to be smaller and creating home and swap from the reduction. [00:48] 1 is easier than 2 [00:48] 2 is cooler. [00:48] violinappren: Thanks! [00:48] I thik i will read about this [00:48] Locutus_of_Borg: you're welcome [00:48] google resize partition linux [00:48] more because its useful to know these things also the kind of formating [00:48] right now i have no idea i just know that fat32 will alow me to acces win files only [00:48] and mac i think [00:49] dejan _, If you run windows, a Fat32 partition would be best, NTFS if you want w7. [00:49] ok can anyone help about this wifi issue [00:50] does anyone have issue accesing linksys wireless router wpa protected with hp laptop? [00:50] I don't have wifi, except on my router. [00:50] i can access it without wpa key but with it i cant :S [00:50] dejan_ that's one for googling. [00:50] yes i guess.. :S [00:50] ok then ill go on google [00:50] sec [00:50] are you sure you know your wpa key? [00:52] I just deleted a file from the terminal, how do I recover it? [00:52] um i think i ll get wifi radar [00:53] ":) [00:53] wpa seems to be fussy exactly 5 or 13 characters of text, or exactly 10 or 26 characters of 0-9 A-F [00:53] its bug with hp laptop and linksys router and wpa [00:53] yes [00:54] do you have a link to the bug? paste link. [00:54] is there any way to reset or ignore missing superblocks on a degraded raid1? [00:54] I'm installing Ubuntu onto a system which has a raid card (raid 1).windows is installed on that main driveand I'm installing maverick onto a secondary drive (patriot drive shown in this image). But I'm not sure which selection to install grub to. Any one willing to help? http://db.tt/0SD6C72 === zfe is now known as ibracadabra [00:55] LuckySMackDroid, your nick is too long! [00:55] Lucky, you have LVM on your disks [00:55] I'm thinking it should be the one I have highlighted that says loader. But I want to make sure. This is my first time using a raid. [00:55] crimsonmane: interesting. i just found theres a gnome-screensaver-command --poke that simulates user activity. so ima combine that with another script i found to check for samba access, and simply poke anytime samba is active. ill post to my blog when i get it working [00:56] Lucky, anything on that raid that you can't do without? [00:56] Pac1. Lol yea I know. And I'm not sure. When setting up they raid I didn't see lvm mentioned anywhere. [00:57] LVM is what linux uses for the same purpose. [00:57] if you boot into the alternate install disk, lvm and raid support will be avialble. [00:57] There's a utility for examining lvm partitions. [00:58] not sure you can boot the alt install disk though. [00:58] Ok. I'm using the normal live ce to install. And the raid was setup with a hardware raid card using a raid boos. [00:59] lucky, I"m not sure about the distinction of Hardware RAid and LVM partitioning. THey might not be the same thing. [00:59] Ok so then there's not much I an Don I need the although dvd then [00:59] although dev/mapper is what I see when I look at disks. [00:59] Yea I don't know either. This is my first raid experience. [01:00] Yea mapper is on there [01:00] LuckySMackDroid, don't play WoW much do you? [01:00] Lucky, any partition can be used for the boot loader, but LVM has to be part of the installation if you're going to use it to boot. [01:00] no raiding? [01:00] I downloaded a file with the extension .apxl, does anyone know any ubuntu application i can use to assess it? [01:00] you could even put it on that memory stick, I think. [01:01] is that screen pic the installer? [01:01] Not wow. I do games on my windows boot just not wow. [01:01] hello! [01:01] Can someone help me restore grub2?

The windows install is windows 7 [01:04] I wouldn't put it there. [01:04] There's some stuff to read out there about booting and LVM. go google! [01:05] Well theitem I have selected isn't the actual windows partition. Its a 100mb partition that the MBR is on. [01:05] Yea illnlok itnup now [01:05] ok so why not that one? [01:05] how do i DL and install grub2? [01:06] That's what I was asking in the first place. I wasn't sure if it made a difference since it was a raid.last time I tried it didn't load grub and went right to windows [01:06] instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub [01:07] does windows have the mbr at the root of the disk? [01:07] So I brought the installer back to this point so I could take Tue picture and ask about it [01:08] Yea. In that 100mb partition I have selected. Which is what I tried last time [01:08] but you already tried installing grub there? [01:08] i got a menu from installing grub in a terminal [01:09] how do i select which device to install grub on? [01:09] its giving me the option of both hdds [01:09] i just dont know how to select it [01:09] Yea and when rebooting I never got the grub menu and it went straight to windows.

[01:19] pac1: http://min.us/ll2Jq6 [01:20] Scunizi: either of those would be fine [01:20] right click a file (like WoW.exe), Properties, Permissions Tab. WHAT IS THE POINT in having a checkbox to make the file executable IF I CANT CHECK IT nor can i change anything on the tab [01:20] anyone got any idea how to make xkb update its keymappings? [01:20] Scunizi: you need rwx access, and others probably shouldn't have write, so... [01:20] have edited the rules and symbols, but seems to have had no effect === Locutus_of_Borg is now known as The_Thing [01:21] pac1: im running from a live cd installed onto a flash drive. so if i can download and install the lvm stuff i could try that, i wonder. [01:21] Could someone explain to me what this means? http://pastebin.com/3xd5ke4H [01:21] rww: 744 would eliminate the write for others.. once I'm done (already :) ).. how do I get the system to read it? [01:21] rww: exec bash? [01:22] Scunizi: source .bashrc, or close and re-open the terminal. [01:22] sorry, source ~/.bashrc [01:22] you can also just type 'bash' [01:22] I'm afraid i completely broke my computer, I'm installing ubuntu 10.10 from the live CD, it got to the "Who are you?" phase, the loading bar was going and everything was fine. There is 1/5 left of the loading bar and it's not loading anymore. [01:22] to reload the rc file [01:23] LuckySMack: that I know just starts another job for bash.. at least that's what I've been told in the past [01:23] LuckySMack, the lvm stuff probably won't help. Where is linux installed? [01:23] Crayboff2: how long has it been? [01:23] up [01:23] I pressed back and forward back to this page, but all it changed was the message above the "Waiting for you" or whatever it said and is now saying "Getting the time from the network time server..." [01:23] LuckySMack: that doesn't reload the rc file in the current bash instance, it makes a new bash child process of the current one. [01:23] Lucky: it's been like this for the past hour and a half [01:23] so when you exit out of the new one, you go back to the current one... [01:23] LuckySMack, have you tried the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub [01:23] linux is going to be installed on its own separate drive. in the image is says unallocated. [01:24] dinner call. later guys. [01:24] rww: ah ok [01:24] how do i do "chmod +x /path/to/file" for something on a different drive? [01:24] LuckySMack just make sure u put grub on the same drive as windows or u will have to change boot device to go between them [01:24] rww: looks like .bash_aliases is 311 ie rw-r--r-- [01:25] well i installed windows first. and right now ubuntu is not installed yet. thats what im trying to do now. [01:25] mycosys: yea i tried that first and when i rebooted it went right past grub apparently and loaded windows. windows is on a raid1 disk === carvas is now known as heisenberg [01:25] how do i do "chmod +x /path/to/file" for something on a different drive? private messages accepted. thanks in advance. [01:26] could do it the other way - put grub on the normal disk and let it load windows, set that ununtu to boot [01:27] mycosys: so just install grub to the base disk that ubuntu will be installed on? wouldnt that bypass windows entirely? [01:27] not if it detects windows during the install [01:28] crimsonmane: just enter path to the other disk [01:28] grub will load windows [01:28] and wouldnt that make it where on boot i have to go to the boot order and chose the drive to boot to? [01:28] yes [01:28] scarleo: i don't understand. [01:28] hi! i have an intel mac and i want to install ubuntu on my external drive. i've read around and didnt find any final solution. can anyone help me? [01:28] easier to use grub to choose imo [01:28] mycosys: i thought to do that i had to install grub alongside windows MBR [01:28] no [01:29] crimsonmane: is it internal hd? [01:29] yes [01:29] LuckySMack: Sorry my internet died [01:29] grub happily loads windows [01:29] 2 drives, both internal. one has windows (and my games) the other is linux [01:29] LuckySMack: so any ideas of what to do? [01:29] whether grub is on its own partition or in mbr [01:30] is there a way to install the latest version of ruby on ubuntu? it defaulted to 1.8.7 [01:30] crimsonmane: ok, so it's probably /dev/sdb1 if this is your second disk. You can du sudo fdisk -l to see the disks [01:30] what is the command to back up a directory? [01:30] crimsonmane: or wherever you have mounted the disk [01:30] i mean go backwards one directory [01:30] ok so, normally when i do this (before i used a raid) i installed grub to the MBR and it all worked. so (to make sure) now that i have a raid i can just install grub in the same drive im installing ubuntu to, it will still see i have windows. so i change the boot drive to the ubuntu drive and ill have the grub menu with windows as another option. [01:30] how can i mount a degraded raid1 array when the remaining drive has lost its superblocks and my attempts to recreate it gives me an error that "/dev/sda1 is too small: 0k" ? [01:31] BlueSherpa check launchpad [01:31] ok, so wherever grub is, is just where i have to set the default boot drive to [01:31] mycosys: what's launchpad? [01:31] Craybot2: ? [01:31] !launchpad |BlueSherpa [01:31] BlueSherpa: Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ [01:31] Do I need OpenSSH to use SSH or can I use the "Connect to Server" option through Ubuntu? [01:31] thx =) [01:32] LuckySMack: the problem i've been having with this installation? it's been hanging at this stage and not continuing (it's already made the partition) [01:32] battlehands: connect to server is good [01:32] crimsonmane: if it's not mounted mount it and then just chmod +x /path/to/file [01:32] duongthaiha, thanks [01:32] is there a command 2 find out wat HDD drive i have ? [01:32] Craybot2: oh, how long has it been stuck there? === occy is now known as Trae [01:32] LuckySMack: 1.5 hours, the Forward button is unclickable [01:33] When I right mouse click on Applications and "Edit Menu" adding a folder to "Office" I put a check mark next to it to activate but after closing and looking at the menu it's not there.. It's also been unckecked in "Edit Menu's".. Why's that? [01:33] Craybot2: ok is anything else on the computer? are you dualbooting with windwos? or is it going to be ubuntu only? [01:33] i'm trying to dual boot with windows 7 [01:33] i'm running it in the live cd right now [01:34] ok. all on same drive (partitions)? ar eyou using raid drives? [01:34] try a failsafe boot perhaps? craybot2 [01:34] or on separate drives? [01:34] Lucky: it's all on the same harddrive [01:34] is there a command 2 find out wat HDD drive i have ? [01:34] i did the automatic partition [01:34] yea i was going to say just cancel it and restart. and try another install option [01:35] unresolved: What do you mean? What brand? [01:35] yea ? [01:35] if thats possible [01:35] lol [01:35] Lucky: then how would i get rid of the partition already made? or i can't do that [01:35] Craybot2 the partition you did, was there a lot of data on it? [01:35] unresolved, system -> administration -> disk utility, or sudo hdparm -i from the command line [01:35] Lucky: i have a lot of data on my windows partition, well like 60GB [01:35] or so [01:36] but this ubuntu partition is new [01:36] how do i navigate inside Terminal to a second internal harddisk? [01:36] literally just made [01:36] was it stuck in the partition setup? cause im thinking it may still just be moving files so it has room to make the partitions [01:36] no it passed the partition setup [01:36] crimsonmane, cd to whatever directory you have it mounted in [01:36] ok. [01:36] crimsonmane: is it mounted? [01:36] psusi: i do not understand! [01:36] yes its mounted [01:36] in the most recent setup, you decide on your partition, then it's doing some stuff as you fill in user name info etc [01:36] ty [01:36] crimsonmane: did you do sudo fdisk -l? [01:37] i filled in my username info but can't press Forward, and the loading bar in the bottom of the window is 4/5 done [01:37] crimsonmane, type df to see information on volumes that are mounted and where... if it auto mounted, it should be somewhere under /media [01:37] scarleo: i can browse the disk in the WindowBrowser. i need to navigate to it in Terminal [01:37] Iam blanking on any command [01:38] is it possibly to use a finder bookmarks file taken from a windows system and use it in ubuntu? [01:38] I have always just popped off the panel to the HHD compartment and looked [01:38] Craybot2: ok so. you have one single drive. which had a lot of data already. you let ubuntu make the partition and now its taking a while. even though its moved on. i think its moving data on the HDD [01:38] ok i did "df"... looks like it says "/media/win64" ... how do i get to it? [01:38] desktop or laptop? [01:38] crimsonmane, cd /media/win64 [01:38] crimsonmane: cd /media/win64 [01:39] "no such file or directory" [01:39] Lucky: ok possible, so what should I do? the text that was above the loading bar said "Ready when you are..." or something like that [01:39] crimsonmane, then you typed it wrong.. it's case sensitive. win64 is not the same as WIN64 [01:39] psusi: thanks. i had forgotten! [01:39] ok. well it might not be. try using the gui to unmount the drive [01:40] what does "df" stand for? [01:40] which drive, Lucky? [01:40] Disk Free [01:40] the one youre trying to install to [01:40] i didn't exactly see my primary (ubuntu) drive when i did "df"... why ? [01:41] there are two drives listed under Computer, LuckySMack, "640 GB Hard Disk: OS" and "File System" [01:41] crimsonmane, you should... it should be just / [01:41] crimsonmane, df -h ? [01:41] How do i reactivate a launchpad account because i want to create a ppa and my account is deactivated. [01:41] Craybot2: the 640. 'Filesystem' is the live cd's drive [01:41] i need some troubleshooting with running ubuntu on my dell [01:41] Hey, I have this weird bug in ubuntu, every now and then the theme is switched when I reboot (it switches to the grey gnome one) [01:42] psusi: sy_: i don't understand [01:42] for some reason the gui never boots, it just goes to a blank screen [01:42] LuckySMack: it only gives me the option to mount it [01:42] crimsonmane, it is the root filesystem, mounted at just /, with nothing after it [01:42] psusi: so it's "/dev/sdb1" ? [01:42] crimsonmane, if that's the device mounted at /, then yes [01:43] that's just what it says on the left [01:43] on the right is "/" [01:43] then yes [01:43] but the "/" is in the same location as "/media/Win64" [01:43] Is there a way to disable the "fade in" when you change the wallpaper? [01:43] Craybot2: ok. best i can think of then is to try and hit cancel. if it lets you. it wont break windows. and re-installing will autorecognize your windows partition when setting up grub [01:43] ls [01:43] sorry mistype. meant for terminal [01:44] Lucky: what about the partition that was already made? === nife is now known as _eclark [01:44] nothin? [01:44] how can i make crontab not die with "grandchild failed with exit status 1" ? im running a script that is expecitly checking for status 1... (grep).. how can i fix it? [01:44] and would this thing be helpful to? "Mar 4 01:42:15 ubuntu kernel: [ 9712.313065] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: MCP power or thermal limit exceeded" [01:44] Craybot2: when you try again it will still be there. you can tell ubuntu to use that partition to install to [01:44] LuckySMack: ok, but there is no cancel button [01:45] startx leads to blank screen, gui never loads, any advice? anyone? bueller? [01:45] try closing the window? [01:45] Lucky: no close button [01:45] Koala_: xinitrc ? [01:45] hrmm. [01:45] i could force shut down my computer, Lucky, but i'm always nervous about doing that [01:45] can you go back? [01:46] "allow executing file as program" ... online says type in terminal "chmod +x " [01:46] it didnt work [01:46] im pretty new to linux, i assume you mean run that as sudo? [01:46] Lucky: i can go back to the place where I choose where the timezone, but that is it [01:46] then i can go forward back to the screen i'm at [01:47] you could try [01:47] i need to make a file executable. how do i do that? online it tells me to type "chmod +x /path/to/file" but it didnt work [01:47] Koala_: Try running sudo gdm instead [01:47] Lucky: i'm looking at that mini terminal output thing above the loading bar [01:47] it gave me a warning [01:48] "Mar 4 01:47:03 ubuntu ubiquity: boots. If you want to update it now, run 'setupcon' from a virtual console." [01:48] that i wasnt quick enough to catch [01:48] would that be helpful [01:48] ? [01:48] unable to... [01:48] crimsonmane: Right-click the file, hit "properties", go to "Permissions" and check the "Make file executable" box [01:48] crimsonmane, "didn't work" is not an error description [01:48] Koala_: did it start though? [01:48] ill try again [01:48] nope [01:48] Starminn: negative. the checkmark instantly goes away [01:48] same blank screen [01:48] okay, [01:48] do you have proprietary drivers or open source drivers? [01:48] crimsonmane: what was the output of chmod +x? [01:48] there isnt any output [01:48] probably proprietary [01:49] i was running windows 7 [01:49] crimsonmane: so ... then it worked [01:49] no it didnt. i cannot run the file [01:49] and i ran the alternate installation cd [01:49] if you don't know then you have opensource drivers [01:49] Craybot2: is there any kind of skip button? [01:49] crimsonmane, if the file is on a windows ( ntfs ) partition, then you can't set permissions [01:49] you need to manually set the proprietary drivers [01:49] install* [01:49] Lucky: there is, but it's faded out [01:49] can't click it [01:49] psusi: i most certainly can. someone in here helped me do it before [01:49] alright [01:49] on the command line try the following: sudo nano ~/.xinitrc [01:50] and tell me if there's anything in that file [01:50] unable to load etc/gdm/custom/conf [01:50] was the warning [01:50] vtw [01:50] *btw [01:50] LuckySMack: would you suggest I just shut down my computer? [01:51] Koala_: anything in that file? [01:51] if not, just hit ctrl+x [01:51] to close it [01:51] to be honest you might need to. when you try again. use the already made partition to install to. [01:51] well i was only able to read the warning after hitting the power button [01:52] that causes the screen to return to the text based screen with a message that its about to HALT [01:52] so you've installed ubuntu through windows then? [01:52] yeah [01:52] alright, Lucky, wish me luck! [01:52] i'll be back soon, i'm sure [01:52] i was attempting to create a partition [01:52] and did you ever have any GUI [01:52] crimsonmane: did you try run it with wine? [01:52] GL [01:52] on ubuntu [01:53] i assumed that downloading ubuntu would download the GUI [01:53] Hello! [01:53] is that not the case? [01:53] yes of course it has, but have you seen any? [01:53] no [01:53] have you seen anything graphical while installing ubuntu [01:53] no i used the alternate instal cd [01:53] try running the liveCD instead of choosing to install ubuntu [01:54] anyone here know how to change the sample rate of an mp3 file without altering the sound? [01:54] Is there any document about how to make a nfs cluster with ubuntu ? any recomendation or best practices? [01:54] and see if you get any graphics [01:54] II'm having a problem using a game pad, if anyones willing to lend an ear. [01:54] i'll brb [01:54] the livecd? [01:54] Jayro: sox? [01:54] if that is the default instal cd [01:54] on ubuntu [01:54] then i need different help [01:54] you can choose to run ubuntu on your machine [01:54] instead of installing it [01:55] to see how it works [01:55] try to find such an option and choose it [01:55] ok [01:55] thanks [01:55] when you double click the ubuntu.iso or cd that you have [01:55] and you can choose to install ubuntu while it is running afterwards [01:55] alright [01:55] II'm having a problem using a game pad, if anyones willing to lend an ear. [01:55] if you don't get any graphics after doing that, your graphics card is probably not supported [01:55] Is there a way to see if a particular module was compiled into the kernel? [01:55] (maybe shitty manufacturer?) [01:56] really? [01:56] ascheel: modprobe? [01:56] silenz0r Thank you! [01:56] asceel: careful though [01:56] asceel: modprobe module will load the module [01:56] any new about ubuntu clustering ? [01:56] Trying to get a PS3 BD remote to work on Ubuntu 10.10 x64, the bluetooth add thing find it then says it fails to set it up, no errors, nothing, just "FAILED". [01:56] modprobe -r module will unload it [01:57] silentz0r: or rmmod? [01:57] silentz0r: I just want to know which ones are compiled into the kernel, that's all [01:57] -l should do that [01:57] hey all, i have a set of keys setup for putty/windows. i've exported it, but i can't seem to get it working under linux. can anyone help me? [01:58] ascheel: don't really remember, but just read the manual of modprobe [01:58] arrrghhh, go to #openssh and read the /topic about ssh keys [01:58] Thanks again, silentz0r [01:58] Koala_: I had trouble on my old laptop, the gpu chip was not supporting linux [01:58] np [01:58] ascheel: i've tried, i think i'm just doing something wrong. [01:58] arrrghhh: you are, but again check #openssh [01:58] I'm having a problem using a game pad, if anyones willing to lend an ear. [01:58] ascheel: ...ok [01:59] if so [01:59] what should i do to remedy that [01:59] arrrghhh: putty is the equivalent of ssh (actually scp) on windows. You're better of using scp (google it) [01:59] lucky [01:59] arrrghhh: there is winscp for scp under windows [01:59] silentz0r: i know how scp works. i need to migrate my keys. [01:59] Koala_: I just waited for the laptop to break and then got a new one [01:59] (it's me craybot2) [01:59] ActionParsnip: not looking to use windows, thanks. [02:00] damn he pinged out [02:00] Koala_: Unfortunatelly though I couldn't even see the command line on it, just no graphics at all. It might be that your screen is not recognised and I think that is fixable. [02:01] ok [02:01] so im back in windows and the install disc is in [02:01] Hit "Try ubuntu" or something like that [02:01] it doesnt give me an option [02:02] what options do you have [02:02] windows displays autoplay features as if it were an audio cd [02:02] Koala_: leave the cd in the drive and reboot the machine [02:02] Koala_: you have to boot off the disk to get that option [02:02] I think [02:02] he wants to install ubuntu inside windows [02:02] using wubi [02:02] not on a separate partition [02:02] ok guys i need help with manually specifying partitions for the install. i already created when i went through the usual Install alongside other operating system [02:02] see ive tried that [02:02] but the iso never finishes writing [02:02] i get a permission denied error [02:02] i unfortunately have no clue what i'm doing [02:03] which is why im installing using the alternate install cd to begin with [02:03] hey lucky! it's me craybot2 [02:03] ok that didnt work [02:03] Crayboff: So you are installing right now and you watch to set up paritions? [02:03] hey [02:03] Koala_: Maybe windows is f'd up? :) [02:03] should i try booting from the disc again? [02:04] gimpy i already created one partition (unless the auto made multiple) [02:04] So i installed grub to the partition i installed ubuntu to, and it didnt pick up windows. I tried booting directly from that disk and nothing ever loads. when booting to my windows disk it loads normally wit hno grub. [02:04] i dont really know what my next move is [02:04] Koala_: what are you trying to achieve? Installing ubuntu inside windows (slower) or dual booting? [02:04] i wanted to dual boot [02:04] i created a partition [02:04] and installed it [02:04] using the alternate disc [02:04] Koala_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [02:04] first time ubuntu user.. is there a way to set hotkeys in Ubuntu for applications? [02:05] Crayboff: Nope, the only creates one big one for your root mount (that is /), are you saying you want to change it after the install so that /home or whatever is seperate? [02:05] like i want to set CTRL+T to Terminal. [02:05] lucky: how do i select the partition it made the first time i do this [02:05] and GRUB works fine. it just refuses to do anything after i log in [02:05] Koala_: I still don't get what you mean by alternative cd. There's just one ubuntu installer [02:06] Koala_: Just different editions (server-netbook etc.) [02:06] gimpy: here's what happened. i went through the normal auto partitioner, but the installation hung up. so i restarted my computer and i want to install on the partitions that where already made [02:06] silentz0r: There is a desktop, server, and alternate CD.... [02:06] alternate is a text based install but it should include a GUI [02:06] only the install should be text based [02:07] hi guys, I know this is an extremely stupid question, but I installed maverick and now whenever I want to execute something from the command line it says 'no such file or directory' [02:07] acetoline: The file or directory doesn't exist. [02:07] hello, I installed ubuntu 10.10 but when i connect to my external monitor, the display shows up fine - but as soon as i start typing something on keyboard, the first key stroke just makes the screen to flicker and switches back to laptop. Any idea what is going on? thanks. [02:07] Crayboff: Alirght, when going through the install, tell it you want to do custom parititions. Where are you having trouble, I'm not getting what you are stuck on. [02:07] Starminn, it does [02:07] Koala_: And why did you choose that over the original desktop edition? [02:07] I'm %100 sure, because chmod +x works [02:08] i'm at the custom partition page and i dont want to break it [02:08] goddammit he quit :( [02:08] because the iso refused to write [02:08] <[segfault]> acetoline: if the file you are trying to run is in the same directory and executable, make sure you put ./ before it [02:08] [segfault], yes I know [02:09] <[segfault]> acetoline: ok, so any command does that? if so, check your path. [02:09] can some one please help me navigate this custom partition page in the installer? [02:09] it would make it through the burn and then the verification would fail [02:09] I have an executable called NetAccountS, and I cd into it's directory and do ./NetAccountS and it says 'bash: ./NetAccountS: No such file or directory' [02:09] which is a blatant lie [02:10] also, $sh ./NetAccountS doesn't work either [02:10] Crayboff: What are you trying to do? [02:10] nobody has heard of this error before? [02:11] acetoline, please paste a ls -l of that directory [02:11] starminn: ok so i tried using the auto partitioner, but installation stopped part the way through and wouldnt let me keep going. so i restarted the computer and i want to install it on the partition that was already made [02:11] Koala_: Tried re-downloading? [02:11] i dont want to mess somethingvital up [02:11] the .iso may have been corrupted after you downloaded it or timed out or god knows what [02:11] [segfault], trust me, that file is there ($chmod +x NetAccountS works) [02:12] good evening [02:12] i tried several times and it never worked [02:12] [segfault], I'm typing from my laptop right now so I can't post a ls -l [02:12] Crayboff: Alright, so what does the custom partitioner show? (Also to be noted, are you dual-booting? If so, I wound up having ot defrag and CHKDSK Windows before it let me install Ubuntu) [02:12] <[segfault]> acetoline: yes, i believe you. I think sougata was just wanting us to see everything for ourselves [02:13] hello, I installed ubuntu 10.10 but when i connect to my external monitor, the display shows up fine - but as soon as i start typing something on keyboard, the first key stroke just makes the screen to flicker and switches back to laptop. Any idea what is going on? thanks. [02:13] could this possibly be an issue with my ~/.bashrc [02:14] anyone could help me with a screen resolution? ubuntu doesn't show the real resolution for my monitor. 1280x1024. I've tried to modify x.conf but it doesn't work. I have a Nvidia 9600gt video card [02:14] wow [02:14] <[segfault]> acetoline: do you have any problems executing other files in your home directory? [02:14] star: i'm dualbooting, now there are: /dev/sda1 (fat32), /dev/sda2/(ntfs), /dev/sda5(ext4), /dev/sda6(swap) [02:15] can you perhaps solve the "permission denied" error I get when downloading the traditional way [02:15] My first day living in Ubuntu and I <3 it so far :) Always used linux @ the CLi level and I've grown less and less dependent on windows as I mostly work in Ruby now days and decided to take the plunge [02:15] super happy :) [02:15] Koala_: chmod ?\fs21 [02:15] [segfault], yes, but when I copy stuff from /usr/bin into the home directory and then do ./blabla it executes fine [02:16] anyone could help me with a screen resolution? ubuntu doesn't show the real resolution for my monitor. 1280x1024. I've tried to modify x.conf but it doesn't work. I have a Nvidia 9600gt video card [02:16] [segfault], could this possibly be some sort of security issue? [02:16] if so, why does it happen on a fresh install [02:17] can anyone help here? [02:17] ineed help whith dis https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI [02:17] <[segfault]> acetoline: I don't know enough to say on that. Just for kicks, what do you get when you execute the file with a parameter like --help or --version? [02:18] icant install my viedocard .. y lose startx [02:18] [segfault], same. [02:18] Crayboff: Okay, so you want to click on the ext4 and set the "mount point" as "/" (root) [02:18] <[segfault]> acetoline: ok, just going out on a limb there, sorry :( [02:18] no problem [02:18] goldeneye: you would prolly have to ask a different question [02:18] any and all help would be appreciated [02:18] anyone could help me with a screen resolution? ubuntu doesn't show the real resolution for my monitor. 1280x1024. I've tried to modify x.conf but it doesn't work. I have a Nvidia 9600gt video card [02:19] covenant : meaning? [02:19] soryy my inglish is bad :S but in ubuntu-es i dont find the solution [02:20] covenant : the problem is that i can see the display well on the external monitor as soon as i switch. but first keystroke on my keyboard, causes a weird flicker and the display switches back to laptop... [02:20] how block ports on ubuntu [02:20] star: do i want to format the partition? [02:20] <[thor]> Lord_Magus: you have installed nvidia drivers, and used the Settings > Administrator > NVIDIA X-Server Settings ? [02:21] thor: yes i did [02:21] Is that with a keyboard/monitor hardware switch? [02:21] acetoline: did you try with sudo? Also what kind of file is this? [02:21] Ummm... is mdadm broken? [02:21] guyschaos: im still confused [02:21] this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReliableRaid says that it has some serious problems if I'm reading it correctly... 4 says that the notification system isn't working?!?! [02:21] scarleo, yes, $sudo ./NetAccountS gives: sudo: ./NetAccountS: command not found [02:21] starminn: also what do i select for bootloader? the same partition or the big one /dev/sda? [02:22] Crayboff: IT's already formatted as ext4 which is *perfect*. All you've got to do now is set the mount point as "/" (a slash) [02:22] acetoline: and I suppose you are in the same directory as the file? [02:22] [thor], the maximum resolution detected was 1360x768 [02:22] any one? [02:22] Crayboff: Whatever the default is should be fine. [02:22] scarleo, absolutely [02:22] scarleo, the exact same file worked in karmic [02:22] acetoline: what kind of file is it? [02:22] star anything else before i click install now? [02:22] 32-bit elf [02:23] it worked fine in 64-bit karmic, now I installed 64-bit maverick and it's borked [02:24] evening [02:24] is it possibly to use a firefox bookmarks file taken from a windows system and use it in ubuntu? [02:24] alright imma press install now, wish me luck! [02:24] anybody here familiar with x11perf? [02:24] Crayboff: Just double-check everything. Your ext4 partition should have a mount point of "/", the size of the partitions are measured in MB, and your swap should of course be mount point os "swap area" [02:24] [thor], i don't know what's going on. i tried to use xrandr but it didn't work [02:24] Crayboff: Alright [02:24] [thor], xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default [02:24] Screen 0: minimum 320 x 240, current 1024 x 768, maximum 1024 x 768 [02:24] default connected 1024x768+0+0 0mm x 0mm [02:25] <[thor]> Lord_Magus: i'm not certain either. [02:25] acetoline: borked is pretty generic, did you install from scratch?

I don't know if it applied, but read of a similar prob with someone elses 64-bit install [02:26] what do i do :( [02:26] star ah it is set to swap area [02:26] is there a specific file that is outputted from x11perf or does the output from this command need to get redirected to a txt file for later usage?

So, remember how you set your ext4 to mount point of "/"? Just do the same thing for your swap but say "use as: swap area". [02:27] and I get a new file 'nas' [02:27] <[thor]> xfgghjlsine: " is list windows [02:27] but then when I do ./nas , same error as before [02:27] yes i do not have any in this list [02:27] Crayboff: Alright. [02:27] star: ya i made sure that was set [02:28] also, $type nas gives 'file not found' [02:28] but the server i was runing is still going so wth [02:28] i think it has bg some how [02:28] but i need to see its output as its a live one [02:28] anyone using NVIDIA CARDS?

[02:30] Lord_Magus: I am. And I'm using the NVidia Driver [02:31] ber: not literally command but whatever command you are running in command line? [02:31] Crayboff: Username has to be in lower-case. [02:31] oooooooooooooooh [02:32] this is where i had the problem before [02:32] gah you are a scholar among gentlemen [02:32] Crayboff: I agree. I pissed me off that it wouldn't allow upper-case, but that's not too bad. IT's REALLY bad that they don't inform you of that. That really irks me. [02:32] no i restore startx [02:32] Crayboff: :) I try. [02:32] Crayboff: First-time Linux user or what? [02:32] sorry my inglish un poor [02:33] kb0odu, do you know how to fix this: nvidia doesn't find the right resolution for my monitor: 1280x1024. i've tried to edit manually the x.conf but it didn't work [02:33] [segfault], I'm installing ia32-libs now, fingers crossed [02:33] starminn: nahhh i just havent had to deal with setup for a couple years :( i'm more of a casual user [02:33] that's embarrassing [02:33] d'oh no ones respondin [02:33] Lord_Magus: Are you using the proprietary driver or the standard one? [02:33] any one else know wth i have done ? [02:33] hey [02:33] Crayboff: Fair enough, fair enough. Alright, well if you h ave any more questions, just hop on back and me or somebody else will certainly see what we can do to help. ;) [02:34] kb0odu, i'm used the drivers provided by ubuntu (restricted drivers) [02:34] thanks man [02:34] I am getting wide vertical lines on two different monitors (same machine) anyone have any idea what might cause that? [02:34] NVidaia Proprietary. Ok. [02:34] ok tkns .. see ya [02:34] Question about Kubuntu - network manager won't let me connect to my ATT wireless. It says it's connecting, but it doesn't finish connecting. [02:35] Lord_Magus: Did you use the "NVidia X Server Settings" under System to configure it? [02:35] scottamunga: Kubuntu support in #kubuntu [02:35] ok guys im back [02:35] im running in to issues with ubuntu completly locking up after running for about an hour is there any way to fix this? [02:35] and ive got wubi to work [02:35] ok [02:35] thanks [02:35] now im curious about removing the install and partition that i attempted with the alternate install disk [02:36] scottamunga, did you try connecting from the command prompt [02:36] sougata [02:36] kb0odu, i've tried to. i've set first to auto. it didn't work, then i tried to find the correct resolution but the highest is 1360x768. [02:36] where can I find the commands to do that [02:36] ? [02:36] kb0odu, as i said b4 the correct res. is 1280x1024@60 [02:37] scottamunga, man iwconfiig [02:37] iwconfig [02:37] ok [02:37] Lord_Magus: PM? [02:37] i'm in ubuntu right now, so I just switch over to kde and type that in? [02:37] kb0odu, what? [02:38] scottamunga, lets try that out in ubuntu [02:38] Hello everybody. I initially installed with alternate install disk and the GUI wouldnt work. i reattempted the traditional wubi install and it worked. my question: how to remove the old partition and faulty install from earlier? [02:38] then you can just do the same there [02:39] Koala_, can you post a screen shot of a partitiner gparted or a windopws one, paste it. [02:41] i am trying to run proxychains but i get this error: Can't locate proxychains.conf: Permission denied, but /etc/proxychains.conf exists [02:41] well what happens now is i boot to GRUB and select windows as opposed to faulty installs. this then prompts me with windows or ubuntu. after selecting ubuntu i get no wubildr [02:43] Koala_, you have grub as the menu at boot and only have windows with a wubi correct? [02:43] Koala_, you have the miss-install as well in a partition [02:44] missinstall is in the partition [02:44] yes [02:44] Koala_, which windows is it we need to reinstall its bootloader.

[02:45] Koala_, do you have a recovery disc? [02:45] i believe its at home, while im at school currently. i may have to wait to recover until next week when i visit [02:46] ny good irc clients for Xubuntu? [02:46] Koala_, here is a download it can be burned or put on a thumb. http://neosmart.net/blog/2009/windows-7-system-repair-discs/ [02:46] x-chat is pretty good for ubuntu [02:46] nit-wit you know this is a ubuntu help channe, right [02:47] TheShaman: I am looking for something that looks good too, or at least not TERRIBLE [02:47] Hi something wrong in this grub.cfg http://paste.ubuntu.com/575282/ , I got only Ubuntu, Debian on sdc and windows on sda [02:47] looks and functional is fine for me but whatever works for ya [02:48] TheShaman: Have you ever used Koversation? I am looking for something like that (its only for KDE) [02:48] anyone use cannon dslr to shoot video? how good is it? can you shoot for 30 min? [02:48] thank you nitwit. do you know what could cause the NO WUBILDR that the wubi install is giving me? [02:48] jasonn; yes and I'm helping this user get the mbr correct to run ubuntu. [02:48] linusasus6: did you just install debian? [02:48] no i gave up on the kde/gnome wars, i like blackbox better than all of this [02:48] nit-wit: ah - anyhow, you know of a good IRC client for ubuntu? [02:48] whats the default username and password [02:48] theshaman: what is blackbox? [02:49] no Ive update [02:49] Jasonn: XChat for GUI, WeeChat or irssi otherwise [02:49] exactly.. or twm if you cant get blackbox [02:49] jasonn; this one I guess you can look through te list. [02:49] linusasus6: it shows ubuntu, then windows vista, then windows 7, then fedora [02:49] <[segfault]> Jasonn: Yes, xchat here also, though seamonkey has an irc client if you like all-in-one apps. [02:49] fluttershy: WeeChat is through terminal? I am looking for one with a good GUI - i dont like the look of xChat [02:50] Jasonn: yes it is [02:50] Koala_, I'm not real familiar with wubi, what made you try a alternative install rather then a live cd. [02:50] blackbox is like twm but looks a bit better, but heck.. ii used DEC windows managers in bw so... i dont need it to look all nice [02:50] Jasonn: try pidgin [02:50] Pidgin's IRC is pretty bad [02:50] [segfault] i am looking for something windows-like [02:50] live cd wouldnt burn [02:50] digital unix RuLeZ [02:50] ya windows vista is the reintaller partition, it mean if you choose this you reinstall windows 7 [02:50] though as are pretty much all IM clients' IRC [02:50] <[segfault]> Jasonn: You can run mIRC under Wine, I suppose... [02:50] chogydan: works for IRC too? [02:51] Jasonn: yep, it is what I use [02:51] whats wrong with x-chat? seems to work [02:51] I can't really think of a better GUI client than XChat [02:51] [segfault] can i get a keygen to work under wine too? [02:51] Koala_, so right now if grub is the boot menu as soon as you remove that borked install nothnf will boot until you reload the MS bootloader. [02:51] <[segfault]> Jasonn: probably, but that's another subject [02:52] I wouldn't like relying on wine to run anything I intend on having running for extended periods of time [02:52] [segfault] have you used konversation? [02:52] anyone know why im getting this error with proxychains if there is /etc/proxychains? error: Can't locate proxychains.conf: Permission denied [02:52] never had good results with wine myself [02:52] Konversation looks pretty good but I dislike using KDE apps in gnome [02:53] <[segfault]> Fluttershy: <---- good advice. Jasonn: no, have not. [02:53] what is new in the new kernel update to lucid lynx? [02:53] TheShaman: i hate wine, i just use it to run a few progs, other than that, i have a laptop with windows 7 [02:53] FlutterShy: but you CAN use KDE apps in gnome? [02:53] vmware player if you *have* to run windows apps [02:53] @ChogyDan ya windows vista is the reintaller partition, it mean if you choose this you reinstall windows 7 so what [02:53] Jasonn: of course [02:53] vmware player is nice [02:53] they just look/behave slightly different [02:53] linusasus6: are you on ubuntu now? [02:54] @ChogyDan I'm on the livecd [02:54] also you'd have to run KDE libs which uses more CPU resources [02:54] [segfault] do you know if i can run a proxy from my server> [02:54] linusasus6: why? [02:54] whats the best music player for ubuntu? i dont really like theone it comes with [02:54] because ubuntu is not on the grub list at start [02:54] <[segfault]> Jasonn: I don't use proxies much, sorry. perhaps someone else can help answer that. [02:54] One more thing, in xubuntu, do you know how i can put a shortcut to an application on my desktop? [02:55] linusasus6: I think you should restate your problem with all the details [02:55] [segfault] thanks anyways :) [02:55] hi, i was wondering if someone can help me with my problem? [02:56] how do i get Linux to see my external harddrive? [02:56] <[segfault]> Jasonn: Usually right click on the app in the menu and select "add this launcher to the desktop" [02:56] TheShaman: Banshee is Rhythmbox +1, Quod Libet is clean and fast, Clementine is x-platform and forked from Amarok [02:56] could try those [02:56] [segfault] nothing happens when i right-click [02:56] @ChogyDan ya 3 weeks ago I've upgrade debian then it have no more ubuntu in the grub menu list when I start my computer [02:56] <[segfault]> Jasonn: nix that...I was thinking gnome, not x... [02:56] crimson plug it in and then open up a terminal and type dmesg | tail . what is the output? [02:57] ah [02:57] linusasus6: what is listed? [02:57] what is the best and simple ipod manager [02:57] debian and windows [02:57] linusasus6: maybe debian took over the bootloader [02:57] mrdebuntu: gtkpod maybe? [02:57] don't have an iPod so couldn't tell you for sure [02:57] Fluttershy: good call [02:57] http://pastebin.com/mbLg0LTh [02:58] nano [02:58] [segfault], whew, I installed 16 dependencies, and finally ia32-libs [02:58] now to test [02:58] [segfault], IT WORKS [02:58] [segfault], you are a genius [02:58] <[segfault]> acetoline: nice job! :) [02:58] ia32-libs solved [02:58] it [02:59] @ChogyDan ya this is what it does but my grub is on the /boot partitions it mean is independant partition of ubuntu, debian and windows [02:59] <[segfault]> acetoline: not me...google-fu! [02:59] weird error though; shouldn't it give some error other than 'file not found?' [02:59] ah well, I learned something new [02:59] hey guys === [1]jayd3e is now known as jayd3e [02:59] [segfault], I have to log off now; thanks a billioin [02:59] how do i get Linux to see my external harddrive? [02:59] i am trying to isntall ubuntu server [02:59] Is there an issue to unlock root account by sudo su; passwd? [03:00] whats the default username and password [03:00] u set it during install [03:00] isn't china?? [03:00] how do i get Linux to see my external harddrive? [03:00] <[segfault]> joako: yes, you just do 'sudo passwd root' [03:01] hm [03:01] wat the hell [03:01] ? [03:01] hey, i installed ubuntu server 10.04, and i cant get it connect to my router using WEP, anyone know why? [03:01] how do i get Linux to see my external harddrive? [03:01] mount it [03:01] linusasus6: yeah, I dunno about the whole separate grub partition thing. Soz. I would check to make sure that grub is installed properly [03:01] crimsonmane: you plug it in [03:02] mrdebuntu: i did [03:02] it aint visible in the window [03:02] crimsonmane: what kind of HDD? is it in /media? [03:02] xnccm: #ubuntu-cn for Chinese. [03:02] it's external. i just plugged it in a minute ago and flipped it on. trying to browse it [03:03] hey, i installed ubuntu server 10.04, and i cant get it connect to my router using WEP, anyone know why? [03:03] have you used it on any other machines and had it work? [03:03] btw i can connect when the WEP is off [03:03] paintchip: of course. [03:04] aso did you buy it as an external or is it an IDE that you put into an external enclosure? [03:04] Is there a decent CLI package manager I can install? Aptitude seems very convoluted to use [03:04] im having trouble starting vncviewer via ssh session, i can start from terminal with "ssh localhost:3" [03:04] oh so it mounts and you can browse it, jou just want it to show up on your desktop? [03:04] Hi ubuntu [03:04] paintchip: no it doesnt mount [03:04] joako: Try dselect? [03:04] Corleone: do ifconfig on the computer [03:04] i mean "vncviewer localhost:3 [03:05] Corleone see if it is getting an ip from your router [03:05] joako: sudo apt-get install dselect [03:05] oh my bad [03:05] correction i turned it off then back on and it worked. [03:05] I've been trying to make a live-usb for 2 days (Downloaded ubuntu mini remix off vzw 3g installed via pendrive on windows) it has the /dev/sr0 issue. I can boot off the usb if I keep a ubuntu cd in the drive... [03:05] banshee is pretty nice [03:05] ls /dev [03:05] So then I burned 10.4 full, still didnt work off usb. usb creator doesnt show my drive on the live cd (On ubuntu live cd atm) what can I do? [03:05] @ChogyDan maybe is the UUID wrong [03:06] kb0odu, dselect seems to make less sense [03:06] i don't know it it wil show up as hdb or sdb but look for that [03:06] if you have more than 1 drive it might be sdc [03:06] Let's see what aptitude does... it says its uninstalling ubuntu-standard [03:07] Would it help if i pastebin dmesg output from when i insert the usb drive? [03:07] hi when i boot my pc and get to grub ubuntu is on there three times... it just started can anyone help? [03:07] let me know that you find [03:07] for flash drive. i installed linux to the flash drive (like nomal) then boot from the flash card on netbook [03:07] that worked for me [03:07] skutr3: try uh.... looking at grub menu.lst [03:08] TheShaman: me? [03:08] skutr3, it could be three different kernels [03:08] cmanns: gedit or something [03:08] @skutr3> must be different version of linux [03:08] xxx__: how? [03:08] how do i have a seperate hard drive auto mount on startup I need it to stay mounted if that make sense [03:08] i wanted to run ubuntu on netbook with windows, so i installed linux on flash and booted from flash (its not LIVE, its real linux) i dont use it much but it did work [03:08] skutr3: it lets you select different kernels when a new ones installed like most linux's.... so cat /boot/grub/menu.lst (I think for ubuntu) [03:08] skutr3, through updating ubuntu may have old kernels saved [03:09] vmlinuz-2.6.35-24-generic ... [03:09] ugliefrog: /etc/fstab by uuid [03:09] just installed ubuntu, but I have no sound. [03:09] http://pastebin.com/W1P1C4At < whats this output mean? [03:09] whats the best webcam for linux?

[03:11] cmanns: cat: /boot/grub/menu.list: No such file or directory [03:11] i dont know if ms cams work. they may. check compatiblity. logitech has a good track record [03:11] DrkCodeman: none [03:11] skutr3: locate menu.lst [03:11] whats the cheapest stereo receiver thats small to power to 100W speakers from laptop? [03:11] TheShaman: craiglist and look for a decent one around 50? [03:12] Corleone then you might have to add them to /etc/network/interface [03:12] nevermind, fixed. [03:12] yeah i thought about craigslist [03:12] skutr3: try /boot/grub/grub.cfg [03:12] Corleone: err /etc/network/interfaces [03:12] mrdebuntu, how do i access it [03:12] wanted something new? [03:12] ugliefrog: sudo gedit /etc/fstab [03:12] anyone use a *insignia* amp? its pretty cheap? any good? [03:12] TheShaman, Anything that says Windows Vista compatible should work. I have a Logitech something HD It's decent. [03:12] DrkCodeman, do you mind if i pm u? [03:13] i once had a cheap insignia 6.1 all in one [03:13] be careful [03:13] worst thing i ever touched [03:13] was the insginia any good? did it die in a year? [03:13] it still works, but it's buggy as can be [03:13] sougata ? [03:13] dvd player issues, the coaxial digital input was junk [03:13] define buggy or a amp [03:13] look at this why theres like 2 grub in the same http://paste.ubuntu.com/575292/ [03:14] ah ok. thx [03:14] cmanns: ok im in grub.cfg [03:14] im not sure about just their cheapest plain stereo amp [03:14] you see the multiple lines in there you formentioned? :3 [03:14] audiosource? anyone use them? [03:15] mrdebuntu, I guess i have to know a uuid code then put a / at the end [03:16] ugliefrog: in terminal, type sudo blkid and check the uuid for it [03:16] never used audiosource stuff, but from the manuals and ratings listed, their over-rated on output by far [03:17] i cant connect to my router when WEP is turned on, but when i turn WEP off, i can connect, i added the WEP key, but it doesnt connect, anyone know why? [03:17] sheerwood? [03:17] their listed ratings are @ 1% THD [03:17] all i want for this setup is something that will sound _OK_ and not blow out in a year [03:17] well, any of the cheaper ones would probably work ok [03:17] anyone on here familiar with prolog by any chance? >.< [03:17] and is heap [03:17] and is cheap [03:18] providing you dont crank them to the moon and expect them to perform like an expensive amp [03:18] ok I will try to copy paste the menu entrys see if it work then [03:18] man [03:18] anyways, this seems way off #ubuntu topic [03:18] or can point me to where i can find someone that does? === gewt is now known as cupcakes [03:18] i cant connect to my router when WEP is turned on, but when i turn WEP off, i can connect, i added the WEP key, but it doesnt connect, anyone know why? [03:18] thats pretty much what i think.. they cheap ones will work... _OK_ [03:18] So if I had Ubuntu installed to itsown drive and grub was installed to it. And I then installed windows to another drive. Should all I need to do is load into a live CD and run update-grub so I get the grub os select menu? [03:19] #ubuntu-offtopic is a good place to offtopic chat :) === Rav__ is now known as vrlogrs [03:19] LuckySMackDroid, If you are doing that I recommend you unplug the ubuntu drive while installing Windows, it might decide to install its bootloader in the totally wrong place [03:20] anyone think dlna is just terrible [03:20] so nobody else knows how to diagnose a unmounting usb drive? I mean I've ran OS's off it before, it boots ubuntu but gets the recessive /dev/sr0 medium cannot be mounted error [03:20] a un recognizable usb* [03:20] The windows drive is the primary drive on this case. [03:20] Corleone, did you try connecting from the command prompt [03:20] cmanns try another USB port [03:21] sougata, yes its Ubuntu 10.04, server, command line [03:21] it could be a corrupted FAT table [03:21] I've had USB pendisks that have done that to me before [03:21] I tried every port, http://pastebin.com/SkcUvmUf [03:21] ya I think I know what happen theyre 2 grub.cfg [03:22] I DID IT! [03:22] I ran PfSense off this USB before :/ [03:22] i made this IRC client work :) [03:22] Corleone, I mean connecting with your router [03:22] using iwconfig [03:22] sougata, yes, it doesnt work when WEP is on, but it does work when i disable WEP [03:22] im having trouble starting vncviewer via ssh session, i can start locally from terminal with "vncviewer localhost:3", my ssh command is: "ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 user@computer" [03:23] all done via command line [03:23] So assuming windows mbr was installed properly. Would I only need to run update-grub from the live cd [03:23] Jasonn: Smuxi? [03:23] Hello, as a ubuntu user, can I ask firefox questions, or do you recommend a different channel? [03:23] @cmanns you might need to pull the USB drive out of the port then plug it in again [03:24] Corleone: My advice to you, from server-runner to server-runner, is just get an old router for $30 on ebay, and slap DD-WRT on it, and ise it as a wireless bride, easiest thing to do, and the best decision of your life! [03:24] yep I found it theyre a grub.cfg on the partition /boot and a grub.cfg on the / of debian [03:24] overclucker: Yes [03:24] overclucker: CTCP? [03:24] hehe [03:25] hey peeps, anyone know of a good audio creation package I can use?

I see an error when grub loads, but it loads ad functions fine except for not using my background that i set in it === rcmaehl is now known as Never_gonna_give [03:26] Jasonn: glad i got you before you had tiem to set that up [03:27] hmm dank, says u3 usb drives work on ubuntu D: [03:27] sougata: i enabled WEP from the router, if thats what you mean [03:27] overclucker: i mean would you like a BNC? [03:27] TheShaman just lookin to create some music files of my own [03:27] overclucker: check my version now [03:27] anyone have mythtv crash X? [03:27] Cablguy: dj/vj system you are looking at LiVES, recording look at ardour, and midi editing you are looking at rosegarden [03:27] music files to mp3? audio editing? [03:28] Corleone, yes. [03:28] audacity is not bad for quick edits (on windows is kinda buggy but still usable) [03:28] TheShamn, no.. just looking to create [03:28] Jasonn: heh [03:28] sougata: yep, its enabled by default, i took it down, to make my server connect, which i managed to do === Never_gonna_give is now known as Never_gonna [03:28] I've got Mixx, and Audacity installed and neather have a viable creation option [03:29] Cablguy: +1 for audacity for quick edits [03:29] not looking to edit.. looking to create [03:29] so i cant get 10.10 to install... it just sits there [03:29] could /dev/sg0/1 be my usb drive? [03:29] u3-tool says sg [03:29] Cablguy: then check out rosegarden === Never_gonna is now known as rcmaehl [03:29] create music files from what? like some synth to make music? midi creator? [03:29] FishEee: get the "Alternat CD" and try that [03:30] So, mdadm is broken?? This page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReliableRaid says that it has some serious problems if I'm reading it correctly... 4 says that the notification system isn't working?!?! [03:30] TheShaman Just create music files from scratch... like dub step and the like.. [03:30] Corleone, Does the router say anything about the key size [03:30] 128 bit [03:30] Jasonn, why need that? [03:31] I'll check out rosegarden [03:31] not sure about that then but i think you can get some roland simulators or something like that [03:31] dang [03:31] mount: /dev/sg0 is not a block device [03:31] i think thats 23 characters [03:32] this is exactly what I'm looking for.. http://www.rosegardenmusic.com/ [03:32] thanks for the input guys.. :) [03:32] FishEee: i had the same problem - trying that CD fixed it for me, otherwise, just download the "server" edition, and do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop - that fixed it for me [03:32] Wow apt-get can't even folow dependancies [03:32] overclucker: check PM [03:32] what is the console command to open the audio manager thingy? [03:33] Jasonn, 9.10 installs fine.... 10.04 and 10.10 doesnt do anything [03:33] FishEee: RAM? === cupcakes is now known as gewt [03:33] im downloading that to try it though [03:33] whats the best program for ubuntu to o wake on lan? [03:33] Jasonn, 4gb [03:33] Corleone, why 23 characters ? [03:33] specs def not issue [03:33] FishEee: you should be able to update it right through the update manager [03:33] Q6600 cpu [03:33] sougata: 26 [03:34] ok I've edit the grub.cfg on both partition what is the terminal command I do for update the grub menu, or is it enough just edit grub.cfg? [03:34] than computer wont start [03:34] i just counted [03:34] Has anyone got the Windows version of OpenOffice to run under Wine? [03:34] lsusb says my usb drive Bus 002 Device 005: ID 0781:540a SanDisk Corp. [03:34] Is there any place i can view grub2 errors? I see an error when grub loads, but it loads ad functions fine except for not using my background that i set in it [03:34] rebirth: alsamixer [03:36] is there anything else? [03:36] nobody? [03:36] Corleone, I am not sure, I guess you know it better. The representation is Hexadecimal , so I was wondering [03:37] Can you use FEFEFEFEFEFEFEFEFEFE as the key and check [03:37] #list [03:37] rebirth: to launch a gui from the terminal: gnome-volume-control [03:39] I can send a --test out with mdadm and it emails just fine... but if I pull the power on a drive I never get an email. [03:39] sougata: ok [03:39] does anyone have a way to remove FF ubuntuzilla build while the commands and repos no longer exist [03:39] So does mdadm not work in 10.4 server?

[05:05] Wiesshund, update manager has a whole list of things that need to be installed, but sudo apt-get update jus breezed thru, didnt stop at any line.

[05:08] Wiesshund, ok so i tried to pick just one update just now, and it gave me the same message [05:09] glitchd sounds like maybe an update tool got shut down prematurely at some point, Look for a LOCK file in your rpm downloads section (the folder where apt-get and synaptic download packges) and delete it.

I don't know about git, but if it's using ssh or gnupg, you can't reset the passwords to those keys. [05:10] Wiesshund, so how would i do this? [05:10] B|ackPanther: that sounds like like a ssh key. You'll need to generate a new keypair and set the public key on the server if you've forgotten it. === adastra- is now known as caedea [05:10] rww : the how do i get a new one ?

Ask #git if nobody here knows the specifics. [05:11] B|ackPanther: you can create a new one with ssh-keygen, but you probably followed directions on a specific hosting site initially (github?) and if so you should follow them again.

[05:13] Wiesshund, so jus type "find LOCK"? [05:13] it is grub 2 [05:13] ok..im trying now [05:13] glitchd /var/lib/dpkg/lock [05:14] so then after installing GRUB on the same partitions as linux [05:14] w [05:14] aka sdb3 [05:14] i get GRUB at book [05:14] w [05:14] but when i goto Windows Loader [05:14] w [05:14] it reboots [05:14] :( [05:14] w [05:14] w [05:14] Wiesshund, then sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock?

[05:15] glitchd er, better advice is restart so the hung process can just release the lock, probably not a great idea to just start rm ing stuff [05:15] Wiesshund, yup that worked now my system is installing updates [05:16] SkullTraill, then add ", TAB to get a list of partition [05:16] glitchd or not hehe [05:16] then press enter?

[05:16] chaosr, then i press enter? [05:16] SkullTraill, so you would see wich one is not a linux type (NTFS) so you would end up with a command that look like " root(hd0,1)" [05:16] glitchd hmm odd, the lock must have got orphaned then [05:16] ferzan: (don't PM me, please) You need to disconnect from freenode and reconnect for ident changes to take effect. === im2cute4u|2 is now known as im2cute4u [05:17] ok then?

[05:21] chaosr, it says BOOTMRG is missing [05:21] loshki yes please, if you can [05:23] cbilljones: ok, well if you want to use "vncviewer localhost:3", your ssh command should probably be: "ssh -L 5903:localhost:5903 user@computer". vnc uses ports counting from 5900 so screen 3 is at 5903. Does this help at all? [05:24] chaosr, are you there? [05:24] loshki: i think so, do i need to change my vnc4server port then? [05:24] Can someone help me please?

[05:26] cbilljones: first I think you need to know which port nvc4server is listening on, so you know which port+5900 to forward via ssh... [05:26] skulltraill, yeah something like that I don't remember how tough :( [05:26] Dayum. [05:26] Alright. [05:26] Thanks for the help [05:26] loshki: right now its listening on 5900, were is the config file? [05:26] I'll search on google. [05:27] Thanks again.

[05:29] armence, however there is alsa-oss modules to act as a compatibility layer [05:30] cbilljones: First, can you run vncviewer on the server? [05:31] armence, ok so if I get you correctly you want to be able to access the sound card through /dev/audio ? [05:31] loshki: yes, vncviewer localhost:3 works on the server [05:31] chaosr, Yes. Probably what I should have started with. [05:31] 怎么都是英文的？ [05:32] chaosr, The actual path doesn't actually matter to me obviously, only the interface does.

[05:35] visual1ce, I would either look on packages.ubuntu.com or apt-cache show "packagename" [05:35] loshki: couldnt tell from that, is there another way? [05:36] i think i had to many connections and didnt see all [05:37] cbilljones: Try netstat -an | egrep 590 to see fewer lines (note: I've added a zero at the end) [05:37] loshki: running vncviewer localhost:3 informs me i am on port 5903 [05:38] loshki: netstat -an | egrep 590 shows connections on 5900-5903 [05:38] cbilljones: that's good, but what you want to see is a netstat line like this: tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:5903 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN [05:38] thx chaosr [05:38] loshki: yes i have that line [05:38] help me plz! [05:39] loshki: i think i maybe need to just set vnc4server to port 5903 perhaps? [05:45] cbilljones: no, you're done on the server. vnc4server is already listening on port 5903.

[05:49] loshki, seems that was old config attempts, i killed them all, VNC is now on port 5901 [05:49] i cant connect to my router when WEP is turned on, but when i turn WEP off, i can connect, i added the WEP key, but it doesnt connect, anyone know why? [05:49] loshki: so now its vncviewer localhost:1 from server [05:49] cbilljones: excellent. Now it's time to move to the client... [05:50] loshki: no problem im remoted into it [05:51] cbilljones: start your ssh command, e.g. ssh -L 5901:localhost:5901 etc.... [05:51] loshki: done, ssh connected [05:52] cbilljones: now try vncviewer localhost:1 on the client.... [05:52] loshki: cannot open display :( [05:52] is there any way to compress pdf file in ubuntu? === BlueSherpa_ is now known as BlueSherpa [05:53] loshki: sorry, "unable to open display """ [05:54] * FarkBarn is away: No toy! favor dejar mensaje despues si quiero lo leo! [05:54] cbilljones: I bet that's because you're 'remoted' in. Can you try it from the client console? [05:54] loshki: no till tomorrow, its my work pc [05:55] loshki: unless you mean from client term, which i am using remotley [05:55] is there any difference if i run sudo aptitude install or sudo apt-get install? [05:55] #join isfahanlug [05:55] loshki via logmein to windows, im using ubuntu VM inside that [05:55] #isfahanlug [05:56] vahid: /join #isfahanlug [05:56] i cant connect to my router when WEP is turned on, but when i turn WEP off, i can connect, i added the WEP key, but it doesnt connect, anyone know why? [05:57] #join isfahanlug [05:57] bzzt. [05:58] cbilljones: so the ubuntu vm is the ssh client? [05:58] loshki: correct [06:00] cbilljones: then yes, I mean try it from the client term. run the ssh command (use the -X flag also) and then run vncviewer again... [06:02] after updatin ubuntu i cant login [06:02] hai === xxx3_ is now known as fedosu85_ [06:04] Loshki, seems all i needed was -X flag, thanks a million [06:06] i cant connect to my router when WEP is turned on, but when i turn WEP off, i can connect, i added the WEP key, but it doesnt connect, anyone know why? [06:07] Corleone: have you tried WPA? [06:07] it's SIGNIFICANTLY more secure than WEP. [06:07] my router doesnt support WPA [06:07] it's old [06:07] does ubuntu support KDE? [06:08] vivek_: yes, kubuntu [06:08] Corleone: bleh. [06:08] how to switch to it? [06:08] vivek_: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [06:09] im making a custom preseed file that loads ubuntu-standard instead of ubuntu-desktop... this seems to install no desktop environment. from here i want to install gnome but the meta-package contains apps that i wont use , like empathy, cheese, ekiga etc... [06:09] lol, arrrghhh: well why doesnt it connect, strange [06:09] is there a minimal gnome package? [06:09] Corleone, wild shot here but check I think there is multiple mode for WEP key just make sure you use the right one [06:09] gnome-session [06:09] Corleone: sorry don't know tbh. it *should* work, but WEP is a PITA. [06:09] visual1ce: look into gnome-core and gnome-desktop-environment. [06:09] visual1ce: gnome-core [06:09] Corleone, I think it was my DS that a prob with open vs shared mode I think. [06:10] thx rww and arrrghhh [06:10] visual1ce: there's a boatload of othere minimalistic DE's like busybox, openbox, etc. [06:10] arrrghhh, i think he means to just go into X [06:10] what is the difference between Gnome and KDE? [06:10] not THAT basic [06:10] vivek_, try it [06:11] broedjq: oic. [06:11] chaosr: sorry dont get u [06:11] i don't really want a minimalistic de but i want to control what gets installed from the get go... i want libre office, not OO and most of the apps preinstalled i will never use [06:11] vivek_: look and feel really. linux is still there. [06:11] which one is better though? [06:11] Corleone, when setting up WEP on the router and PC, I think you can select shared or open mode I think it is called [06:12] Corleone, maybe switching from one to the other would help [06:12] Corleone, should be near where you input the WEP key [06:13] vivek_: personal opinion. also, please stop trying to PM me. [06:13] i don't accept unsolicited PM's. [06:13] chaosr, not there [06:13] okk [06:14] where can i get gdk and gtk+ and gthread... i wanna compile === administrator is now known as Guest29050 [06:14] can someone try aptitude install is there gtk+ package? [06:14] here with xubuntu itsw not [06:14] -w [06:14] Corleone, do you have your router model # ? [06:15] Yes [06:15] SpeedTouch 570 [06:15] I need to get gpg to output resulting encryption in base64 instead of what it gives me now raw data, how can I pipe it to base64 or just get it to output the way I need? [06:18] can someone try aptitude install is there a gtk+ package? [06:18] broedjq: can't you just use synaptic? [06:19] Corleone, ok I see there is no such setting with that router.... [06:19] hi my partition has problem. in sudo fdisk -l i can see my partitions but in gparted or install i see total of partition as one partition also in sudo cfdisk say FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition 1: Partition ends in the final partial cylinder Press any key to exit cfdisk [06:19] Corleone, maybe a driver issue too I think it happened to me [06:20] Corleone, wich chipset do you have for the wireless card ? [06:20] Okay i found it to be RT-2500 USB [06:20] but i can mount my partitions and see inside of them [06:20] sacarlson, its hidden, but thanks anyway [06:21] Corleone, ok.... and I guess under windows it works fine ? [06:21] hey i have a question about running dual boot with ubuntu and windows 7 [06:21] can anyone help me out [06:21] Corleone, maybe you could have it try to connect and look at dmesg while it is doing so see what it says [06:22] Corleone, may point to a cause [06:22] dmesg? [06:22] mark, ask ur question [06:23] i have installed ubuntu side by side already but when i restart the computer it doesnt ask me if i want to start it in ubuntu or windows it just automatically goes to windows [06:23] how do i get it to let me choose [06:23] Corleone, ok well you ty to connect to the router [06:23] then open a Console [06:23] Corleone, and type dmesg [06:23] Corleone, it will give you a bunch of messager [06:23] hi [06:23] mark, I suppose you have installed ubuntu after windows ? [06:23] Corleone, the last ones will be about the connection [06:24] yes [06:24] that is correct [06:24] okay [06:24] why does most of the config files end with rc in linux programs. Does it has any abbrevation.

[08:22] yayoj1, and why do you think so? [08:23] SirCane: well you could mitigate those by using key auth I suppose. [08:23] guest3443: try using the latest lts release [08:23] SirCane: if he is using both wireless security and a vpn, he would be sensibly safe? [08:23] dejan_: that is offtopic but you may msg me [08:23] ok thanks jasonmchristos apritiated [08:23] i will try google first if no sucess i will [08:24] yayoj1, Shit, I have a deadline of 3h to do so, I can't make blank shots. [08:24] guest3443: that is ubuntu 10.04 [08:24] mickster04 to a degree, but if you're going to get attacked by someone who wants to gain access to a wpa2 network then you shouldn't trust the wireless network at all [08:24] hi , i have just installed lamp to ubuntu, when i enter localhost to address bar , it works, but when i create project with netbeans, it don't run [08:24] guest3443:google it [08:24] where should i place the project [08:24] Anybody have a link for a guide to share wifi connection over LAN? :) [08:24] !ohmy [08:24] Please remember that all Ubuntu IRC channels share the same attitude of providing friendly and polite interaction with all users of all ages and cultures.

[08:26] guest3443: md5 the iso you downloaded then try burning it to disk, and verifying it, and then install wubi off it, by booting into windows and iserting the disk [08:27] mickster04, As I mentioned in my initial message burning cd is not an option... [08:27] guest3443: what are the specs of the computer you are working with [08:27] jasonmchristos: They only describe the process for wired to wired afaik :) [08:27] guest3443: so how are you pputting it onto usb?

[08:51] dejan__: no problem [08:52] um i did that gaelfx but no mac address came :S [08:52] !who>gaelfx [08:52] gaelfx, please see my private message [08:53] shijie: it's always better to install the drivers that ubuntu suggests, since when you update, ubuntu knows how to keep them updated with everything else. If you use the drivers from nvidia, it might work now, but once you get a kernel update, you will have to install them again [08:53] I also installed the recommended driver from ubuntu, it freezed upon logging [08:54] dejan__: does ubuntu recognize your wireless card? [08:54] gaelfx: [08:54] yes i can connect to netwroks only without WPA :S thats why i need mac address to set my router to block acces from other mac addresses and I wil lset wep to protect my netwrok :S [08:55] dejan__: hang on [08:55] ok thanks [08:56] dejan__: if you right-click network manager applet in the panel, and check the connection information, it should tell you the MAC address, it calls it the hardware address [08:56] shijie: did the drivers ever work, or is this a fresh install? [08:56] I mean,both of the drivers cannot work on my GT415 [08:56] never worked [08:57] gaelfx ok im right kow connected wired i will try wireless [08:57] but my classmate's GT310 card could work properly both on suggested and official drivers [08:57] I am under deep confusion about that [08:58] dejan__: ifconfig should also show it to you [08:58] shijie: the newer cards are not always as well supported as the older cards [08:59] dejan__: it lists it as haddr or something like that [08:59] how to install .run files, I wonder if I installed .run drivers wrongly [08:59] hey all [09:00] gaelfx: i am trying to use a pcmcia usb cardbus with no luck, could you assist me how to get it to work? [09:00] shijie: I've never heard of a .run file, but it doesn't sound like something you install [09:00] can I install updates from Terminal for 'Shutter'? How? [09:00] Do you know if there is any compatibility problems with GT4XX cards? ^^ [09:00] Ors: sorry, I've got no experience with pcmcia [09:00] gaelfx: thanks [09:00] shijie: that's what I'm looking into right now [09:00] nvidia drivers' suffix is .run [09:01] like nvidia_260.66.10.run [09:01] Also, what is the Linux version of PGP? (Installable from Synaptic) [09:02] i used the command: sudo sh nvidia_linux_22.xxx.run, is it right? [09:02] ur2d2r: if it's installable from synaptic, it should tell you the version number there [09:03] shijie: I'm thinking with that, you need to sudo chmod +x and the ./nvidia_linux_whatever [09:03] *the=then [09:03] gaelfx: PGP doesn't show up as a package. I'm wondering what the title to a comprable package would be. [09:03] ok,thanks ,I will try again [09:04] when i boot from ubuntu cd, it just says 'ubuntu 10.10' and nothing happens. is it installing? [09:05] Wubi install 'Try (hd0,0): NTFS:5'. Suggestions? [09:05] shijie: did you see this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1592955 [09:05] dtrf4837: no, it should be booting, unless there's something wrong with the CD you burned. What speed did you burn it at? [09:06] dtrf4837: and how long have you been waiting? [09:06] btw, does video drivers work the same on wubi installation and fresh installation? === zaphod_ is now known as vismundCygnus [09:06] I installed in wubi way [09:06] gaelfx i dont remember but i didnt know i had option [09:06] Okay its call GPG... [09:07] dtrf4837: well, could you try it on another computer to see if it's a hardware issue or an issue with the CD? [09:07] shijie: did your friend install from wubi? [09:07] yes [09:07] shijie: the only reason I ask is that wubi is kind of notorious for making dysfunctional systems [09:08] ok,I will try another way [09:08] thanks a lot === root is now known as Guest22936 [09:08] gaelfx the screen finally changed it looks like its loading [09:08] shijie: sorry I can't be more helpful [09:08] hi guys, is there anybody with some apache solr skills? [09:09] hi [09:09] !ot [09:09] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [09:09] hello sword [09:09] dtrf4837: yeah, livecd/usb is a lot slower than having the actual system installed, mostly because of the suashfs thing. you can't fit all the functionality of 4GB into 700mb unfortunately === sword is now known as Guest59922 [09:09] I've got tomcat and apache running on my ubuntu 8.04 and have a drupal 6 install with the latest stable release of apche solr search. drupal connects fine with the solr, but indexing fails, I'm lost here [09:10] eddi_: that's not really an ubuntu problem me thinks [09:10] eddi_: not trying to be a snob or anything, but is there any particular reason you're using 8.04? [09:10] oops wrong channel here, sorry - should be on the drupal support (sorry about that, its eaarly here) [09:11] gaelfx: its what I have to do with here at work ;) [09:12] hey just in case i run into the problem again which is why i'm reinstalling ubuntu 10.10, is there anything i should know before i begin installing so that i wont have the problem where i keep being asked to type in a password i dont even know about? all i know is my loging password and it only works for the login? [09:12] anyone here know how to open a new server window in xchat-gnome. in the normal xchat it was self-explanatory [09:12] eddi_: oy, understood mate, best of luck! [09:13] !root | dtrf4837 [09:13] dtrf4837: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [09:13] Cradam: try asking their forums, i use irssi [09:13] dtrf4837: that was maybe a bit cryptic, but your login password is the admin password [09:13] very matrix like [09:13] There is no spoon [09:14] Corleone: that is the idea, yes ;) [09:14] gaelfx i was told in here before that when im asked for that password, it should be the same as my login password and everyone was puzzled that they didnt match [09:14] hey gaelfx, could u help me with my problem, im trying to get my server to connect to my router via WEP, and ideas? [09:14] have you thought about the fact that i want to open it now, not when someone cba to look at my post [09:15] Corleone: oof, wireless is really not my specialty, sorry [09:15] Am I in the right channel to ask about pcmcia related problems? === frimend_ is now known as frimend [09:15] Corleone: but it might help if I had an idea of your hardware that's involved in that scenario [09:15] if the pcmcia problems are in ubuntu then yes [09:15] Ors: yeah, this is the place, it's just kinda roulette as to whether anyone knows anything about it [09:16] router: SpeedTouch 570, wireless: RL2500 USB [09:16] Cradam: yes,maybe try file>connect? [09:16] Cradam: like a said i don't know, try type /connect servernamehere [09:16] Corleone: which driver is it using for the RL2500? [09:16] Cradam: see what happens [09:16] sorry RT2500* sorry [09:16] i dunno, how do u check [09:16] Corleone: and have you ever considered MAC address filtering? [09:16] erm, no? [09:16] gaelfx: mac address are easy to fake [09:16] Corleone: do you have a gui? [09:16] no that dont work it opens the server in the same window plus the server i want is not listed [09:17] gaelfx maybe i missed it before but i guess when i'm installing i was asked to enter a login password and also admin password? [09:17] No, its terminal, server u see [09:17] Cradam: what does the inbuilt help say? [09:17] not much [09:17] mickster04: true, but that usually requires direct access to your hardware, or access to your network to find the right ones ;) [09:17] Cradam: it there a space next to the current tab? how about ctrl+t? [09:17] gaelfx: naw, just sniff a packet or two [09:17] dtrf4837: yeah, it's possible, it's been a while since I installed so I don't remember. just go through it more slowly next time [09:18] gaelfx: if there are packets to be sniffed there is a connection made... [09:19] mickster04: I suppose you have a point :P [09:19] gaelfx if that is the case do you suggest i enter same password for both the login and admin? [09:19] gaelfx: but depending on how tech savvy they are, they may not even be able to do that and then you are safe [09:19] Can anyone help me with connecting to my wifi [09:19] dtrf4837: that depends, can you remember more than one passworD? [09:19] !details | Fwb2700 [09:19] Fwb2700: 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 ..." [09:20] gaelfx i'll just write them down [09:20] Cradam: my pcmcia gives the error: ohci_hcd 0000:06:00.0: USB HC takeover failed etc. Any suggestion how to fix it? [09:20] dtrf4837: it's a good idea for them not to be the same, but probably not necessary unless you have truly sensitive info on your computer [09:20] dtrf4837: woah, no/ may as well not bother with the passwords!!! [09:20] <_skpl> i have a problem with login settings and update managerm, im running ubuntu 10.10 and whereas i normally only need my login passwd, its prompting me for the root password [09:21] _skpl: thats the same password usually, certainly if there is only one user [09:21] Well I have a dynalink adsl2+ router encrypted with wpa2 and I want to connect to it on ubuntu 10.10 but I new to ubuntu [09:21] Fwb2700: well select thenetwork icon in the top panel [09:21] ok people, I'm off like a prom dress [09:21] Fwb2700: then select your wireless network [09:21] <_skpl> mickster04: my login passwd does not work for that [09:22] Network doesn't show [09:22] Fwb2700: check here [09:22] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 [09:22] _skpl: well maybe it's the keyring password you want? that might be different [09:23] mickster04 do you mean i might as well not bother with the password if i have to write them down or if both the login password and admin password are going to be the same? [09:23] <_skpl> mickster04: would the keyring passwod be the same as my login? [09:23] dtrf4837: if you write them down, probable security risk imo [09:23] _skpl: not neccesarily [09:23] looks like _skpl is having the same problem i'm having? [09:23] <_skpl> mickster04: i never set a keyring password [09:24] _skpl: it's whatever you chose it to be when you first logged in [09:24] <_skpl> mickster04: this started happening after i deleted the original user and added a different on cuz my computer was crashing [09:24] _skpl: uhm that original user's password will probably be the admin password eh? [09:25] _skpl: you'll notice i said one user, not multiple users...if you are not adimn, you will not have the required access [09:26] <_skpl> mickster04: i set a root password using 'sudo passwd root" [09:26] _skpl: oh dear [09:26] _skpl: then you stlil need to be the root user to use that password [09:27] _skpl: there shouldn't be a root user really [09:27] <_skpl> i used it at the passwd prompt for update maneger and it worked. i guess i will just have to remember twop passwds [09:27] _skpl: there should be simply users that have root access [09:27] !visudo | _skpl [09:28] _skpl: either look into adding your user to the sudoers list properly next time [09:28] _skpl: that said you will still need the main admin password [09:28] <_skpl> i di add my user properly [09:28] <_skpl> i used visudo [09:29] _skpl: well then your user password should work? [09:29] <_skpl> it doesnt [09:29] <_skpl> :( [09:29] :( indeed [09:29] hummmm [09:30] <_skpl> it only asks me for the root passwd when i try to unlock login settings and update maneger, and probably synaptic though i have not tried that yet [09:30] _skpl: yeah, i am starting to think a reinstall may be in order, how old is this install? which ubuntu is it? [09:31] <_skpl> ubuntu 10.10 its only a couple days old [09:31] /msg NickServ identify charizard [09:31] fuclk [09:31] lol [09:31] k_89: Password change time :) [09:31] _skpl: how did you forget the password in a couple of days, and why did you change the user? and how was it starting to break? [09:31] how [09:32] k_89: i think you identify then run password new password [09:32] <_skpl> mickster04: i forgot how it broke but i wass getting a massge about ice-authority [09:32] <_skpl> i couldnt get into my desktop [09:32] <_skpl> so i made a new user and deleted the one that install created [09:33] _skpl: also after two days a new install isn't going to lose you much time? [09:33] <_skpl> i gave the user all the priveleges [09:33] _skpl: uhm how? [09:33] ifif you couldn't get into ur pc? [09:33] k_89: Once you've identified to nickserv You can reset your password. However, you must first identify to nickserv using the existing password. Once you have identified, simply type /msg nickserv set password $newpass. [09:33] <_skpl> mickster04: users and groups, and even added the user to the sdoers file [09:34] _skpl: but if you couldn't log in? [09:34] is there any advantage in choosing 'specifiy partitions manually (advanced)' instead of 'erase and use the entire disk' when i dont have any data on the hdd? [09:34] <_skpl> i can login, its just i find it odd that ubuntu asks for a root pw when supposedly one does n ot exits [09:34] thnx [09:34] lol [09:34] k_89, use some good passwords [09:35] <_skpl> mickster04: so i simply created a root passwd and will use that when it asks for root pw [09:35] draven_sol_: in my case, i dont use swap as i never hibernate, an i have 16GB ram so i didn't need that, an i am ok having everything on the same partition as i have to special data on there [09:35] dtrf4837: in my case, i dont use swap as i never hibernate, an i have 16GB ram so i didn't need that, an i am ok having everything on the same partition as i have to special data on there [09:35] draven_sol_: oops wrong nick [09:35] _skpl: i still dont understand why you needed the second user if the first one still works? [09:35] help!! how to move launchy a bit to the top, so doesnt overlap with the bottom bar? [09:36] dtrf4837: The advantage of specifying manually is that you can create a seperate partition for /home so that if you ever have to reinstall, you don't lose your user data (that option might be included within the use whole disk but its not something I've tried) [09:36] phoenixsampras, right click properties and move it top and then do same move it bottom [09:37] <_skpl> mickster04: the first one didnt work,. thats why id eleted it [09:37] <_skpl> mickster04: if i only have on hd, can i format that drive using gparted live? [09:37] _skpl: but how did you create a new user if you couldn't log into it? [09:37] <_skpl> mickster04: recovery console [09:38] _skpl: you wouldn't need to, just run the installer and it can format it at time of installation, saves you time [09:38] About 24hours ago updates to natty causing this fatal error "/sbin/lvm: error while loading shared libraries: libdevmapper-event.co.1.0.1: cannt open shared object file: No suchfile or directory" during booting [09:38] !natty [09:38] Natty Narwhal is the codename for Ubuntu 11.04, due April 28 2011 - Help and support (only) in #ubuntu+1 - Natty is unstable and is not intended for production systems.

[09:40] DJones if i already have the data backed up then there wont be any advantage in specifying partition right? [09:40] firegrass: what i mean is take it to the other channel please [09:40] mickster04, he has already done the mistake now help him now [09:40] olit: ? [09:40] mickster04: kk, thanks. [09:40] nothing mickster04 [09:41] firegrass: yeah, this is just ubuntu, there is one for natty aswell [09:41] olit: ok [09:41] dtrf4837: In that case, other than the opportunity to have a seperate /home partition, there would be no other benefit that I'm aware of [09:43] DJones so its still a good idea to have a separate /home partition?

[10:50] you can also just execute that file but sourcing it is much tidier [10:50] flickeringlamp: what do you mean? [10:50] ikonia: yea i figured [10:50] Sheepherd: who are the sheep? [10:51] flickeringlamp: is this really an #ubuntu conversation ? [10:51] executing it wont affect the shell you execute it from. you have to source [10:51] ikonia: no time? understood. [10:51] Sheepherd: ask me in #ubuntu-offtopic [10:51] flickeringlamp: #ubuntu-offtopic if you want a bit of light chatter [10:52] ikonia: it isn't light, unless this is a dream [10:52] reality check. no, it isn't. :| [10:52] flickeringlamp: enough please [10:52] flickeringlamp: not interested sorry [10:53] don't talk unless other requestee comes in [10:53] i hope i won't have to deinstall entire gtk mess to fix this?

It's possible to give a process a greater share of CPU time. Check out "nice" and "renice".

[11:05] well, not really. you can ensure your using 64bit windows as long as your cpu supports 64bit. Faster HDD (7200RPM+) will help too. [11:05] thats about it lol [11:06] dtrf4837, somebody told you to use nice ,,, use it ,,, though i don't [11:06] How would 64bit windows make it faster? [11:06] hello word [11:06] Hello [11:06] I am world, how are you? [11:06] :D [11:06] Drainix, it uses 64 bits [11:06] lol [11:07] i am fine [11:07] lol look up 64bit [11:07] I'm don't know much about the difference in 32bit and 64bit aside from the ram capabilitys [11:07] just google search 32bit vs 64bit windows 7 [11:07] okay [11:08] olit: Drainix: Windows support is also rather offtopic here [11:08] Drainix, its architecture difference uses 64bit addrs [11:08] I know but Prototype offered to help, sorry [11:08] allows u to use all cores in a multi core processor, giving u (obviously) more processing power, but like i said you have to have a 64bit processor [11:08] Drainix, use #ubuntu-offtopic [11:08] plus 64 bit systems allow u to use more ram, like u said [11:08] thanks olit [11:09] i think win7 ultimate allows up to 198GB or something [11:09] ridiculous [11:09] i three xp 7 linux [11:09] its been a big difference for me moving up from 32 bit to 64 bit on windows and in the future i'd like to have 64 bit for ubuntu...i wonder if the difference is going to be as great [11:09] It is a 64bit proccessor now I'm dreading reinstalling windows [11:09] me to [11:10] you wont see a BIG difference on 32 bit systems vs 64bit systems unless your doing CPU intensive tasks like converting videos etc [11:10] gaming can be CPU intensive as well [11:10] That's all I do :d [11:10] you should look in to it then =) [11:10] Thing Is I never actually have CPU problems [11:10] it's never at 100% [11:10] found a bit of clue, PR_SetPollableEvent is in libnsp4.so, which i find in /usr/lib as well as in /usr/local/lib [11:10] 7x64 has an "Ok" compatibility mode [11:11] I was just wanting to make it install faster, because I have 40% idle CPU [11:11] i just wish i could get someone to tell me how to properly type in this SIMPLE code in to terminal !! [11:11] Hey all. Does anyone know of something similar to Microsoft Office OneNote for Ubuntu/Linux? [11:11] Drainix: hard drives are usually the slowest point in a system [11:11] Fuwex: libreoffice [11:11] the-prototype well my computer with ubuntu is 2gb ram max and everything seems slow, not just cpu intensive tasks [11:11] Hmmm is there a way to see my HDD RPM ? [11:11] I am having problem with uploading a file to a server setup at my localhost. There is some permissions related problem due to which the uploading returns 'HTTP I/O ERROR' [11:11] Drainix, not all applications are written for 64 bits [11:12] Well, ram is important as well when it comes to multi tasking [11:12] Fuwex: sorry, OneNote... then i think evernote is more simular [11:12] That's why I have stuck to 32bit because I liked that it was compatible with everything [11:12] i have 3GB and order another 1gig from newegg (should be here soon) and my system flies [11:12] the-prototype yeah thats why i want to move up to 64 bit on the ubuntu computer also [11:12] hi. when I execute this: timidity fluid.mid -----> I obtain this: Couldn't load instrument aaviolin.sf2 (tone bank 0, program 73) . The instrument and path are correct (if I use a wrong sf2 or path I obtain: "No such file or directory". What can I do ?

Permission of this folder are set to [owner, group]=me,www-data / [files,directories]=777,777 [11:13] dubbe: thanks, will check it out :) How's LibreOffice compared to OpenOffice? I'm not quite satisfied with OpenOffice as a replacement for MS Office, though I haven't tried the latest version of OO [11:13] Drainx: I can't say I've had many compatibility issues running 64 bit, is this a common problem? [11:13] can someone PLEASE tell me how to properly type this code in to terminal? its pretty elementary, i'm just a big Ubuntu noob! [11:13] Fuwex: not much of a diffrence yet. I hope the libreoffice will grow [11:14] I see. Okay, thanks for the tip [11:14] Why are YouTube videos pink? [11:14] Drainix now adays windows 7 64 bit windows update usually takes care of all the drivers and compatibility problems. Be sure u select the "additional updates" though. [11:15] Drainix Older games and software like quake II wont work properly without some configurations, but all the new stuff is 7x64 compatible [11:15] 64 bit compatibility, for windows atleast, isn't really a big issue any more [11:15] is /usr/local/lib in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/libc.conf normal? [11:15] i've got a libnspr4.so there that's unaccounted for [11:16] in c:/programfiles(x86) is where 32 bit stuff gets installed so its backwards compatible for some older programs or things that just arent 64bit [11:16] Thank you the-prototype :) [11:16] np =) [11:17] can someone PLEASE tell me how to properly type this code in to terminal? its pretty elementary, i'm just a big Ubuntu noob! [11:17] is 7,200 rpm bad ? :o [11:18] tuxick, well i have that /usr/local/lib in there aswell so I guess it's normal [11:18] Drainix: no it's middle of the road, probably the best speed for price [11:18] the-prototype: Drainix: this is rather offtopic [11:18] oliver_: ok thanks, i think i found my problem [11:18] installed freeswitch from source, which put stuff in /usr/local/lib [11:19] assuming ubuntu doesn't use /usr/local/lib itself, and dpkg doesn't know about those files [11:19] so is there another place i should ask my question? i found the resolution for the synaptic not accepting my problem. i need help on putting the code provided properly in to terminal. [11:19] If i'm not in the right place please point me in the right direction. [11:20] sorry not accepting my "PASSWORD" [11:20] the-prototype: for that this is the right place, I was referring to the discussion about Windows [11:21] !sudo | the-prototype see if this helps [11:21] the-prototype see if this helps: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE).

I've installed ubuntu twice so far. one 32bit and now the 64bit. i installed VLC on 32bit BEFORE using rhythmbox and had no issues playing my music imported from my external. This time i tried to use rythmbox using music from my external and it said i needed additional plugins, and still wont play all my music. [12:00] so i installed vlc [12:00] now i'm opening to see if the errors persist =) [12:01] the errors are gone. i think installing VLC will solve a lot of codec issues, since it can play damn near everything [12:02] so installing VLC will allow more extensions to play in Rhythmbox, i wonder if it works like that for all media players [12:02] the-prototype, what r using for rmvb [12:03] the-prototype: I'm not sure it works like that as (for me) on a virgin install of ubuntu the "restricted drivers" rhythmbox uses for mp3's and such aren't installed but they're usually pretty easy to install (prompting you as soon as you attempt to play something). but glad to see your problems have solved themselves in this case. on a side note: I love VLC [12:03] jpds: oh there is a command unalias i get it [12:04] olit what is rmvb? [12:04] Help!! where i can set gnome resolution when i Loggin?

Wierd.... [12:05] the-prototype: it probably dragged in more decoders [12:05] the-prototype, another format [12:06] olit rmvb is a format for music?

IDK though, im a newb [12:09] when i have only image with me and not kernel source code, is it possible whether a particular driver is loaded as module or is a part of kernel?

[12:14] phoenixsampras: the nvidia drivers are built as part of the ubuntu additional drivers menu and are supported by the ubuntu kernels, the 3rd party ones are your own responsability [12:14] ikonia: really? I was under the impression that when you have the binaries from Nvidia you had to reinstall everytime to update, oh nevermind [12:14] [[thufir]]: that page isn't for 10.04 though [12:15] HF_acid: not if you use the ubuntu packaged ones [12:15] ikonia: yeh, ubuntu drivers doesnt support Vaio laptops [12:15] HF_acid: only if you break the compatability and use your own versions [12:15] ouch [12:15] phoenixsampras: what card is it ?

[13:33] ActionParsnip yes i am [13:34] i'd try to read kde's settings, but it's unreadable [13:36] Wiesshund, do you still have the shebang line and tail command, since those files aren't included verbatim in the final config [13:36] ActionParsnip when i did the 10.10 upgrade i seemed to have gotten a newer grub also 1.98-2... rather than 1.97-....., and it seems to just ignore anything in etc/grub.d [13:37] ActionParsnip: It works fine!! Thanks [13:37] karla im using the same files from etc/grub.d that i had prior, but its not making use of them, was there a change?

[14:40] theres two wireless keyboards listed on the ubuntu site, and only one is being sold anymore [14:41] <[TK]D-Fender> chaosc: One would think you'd put your whole OS there and maybe jsut mount your user folder from an HDD [14:41] [TK]D-Fender, because only 1 directory can be on each drive? [14:41] Does anybody have any ideas on how I could set up Ubuntu systems connected to a Windows domain so that when the domain user logs in they get a link (no matter where it is, home dir, documents folder, or folder on desktop) to auto point to their share on the Windows file server? === rob0917_ is now known as rob0917 [14:41] llutz_: Is it instant change though as soon as I save something?

[14:42] Hello, please I need some help with icon theme customization. [14:43] [TK]D-Fender: Well, I have a 30GB SSD. My problem is that after all the updates and whatnot, I have very little space left. So I'm looking for a solution of yeah, installing the OS on my SSD and then doing all of my downloads, updates, etc, onto my 500GB [14:43] jgeli, is it executable? [14:43] yes [14:43] <[TK]D-Fender> chaosc: Well you can tell your APPS to save onto that drive directly... or can jsut move your /home folder to that drive. [14:44] <[TK]D-Fender> chaosc: This is extremely common as a layout choice [14:44] [TK]D-Fender: wouldn't system updates still be being applied to the SSD? [14:44] <[TK]D-Fender> chaosc: Again, it isn't your OS that is going to break 30GB, its your DATA [14:45] <[TK]D-Fender> chaosc: go look at the size of your /home folder [14:45] anyone for icons customization help please? [14:45] Auklet: inotify, incrond could be worth a look too [14:46] haii [14:46] [TK]D-Fender: 173.2 MB [14:46] awij: try being more specific, what exactly are you attempting to do? [14:46] [TK]D-Fender: I don't have a lot of applications or anything, very minimalist. It's my updates that killed me. [14:46] <[TK]D-Fender> chaosc: Odd.. check with baobab as to where it's getting eaten up [14:47] is there a way to give permission to a directory so 2 users can modify it? [14:47] HF_acid : i'm trying to replace folders icons by another theme ones, but only folder icons [14:47] chaosc: then you could make a file based fs on your 500gb and mount that where ever its being used [14:47] aka where the temp files are hanging around [14:47] g0tcha: use a group with both users as memebers? [14:47] g0tcha: use a common group both users are memebers [14:47] <[TK]D-Fender> chaosc: I might suspect you are caching a ton of old versions you can trash... [14:47] arghh [14:47] llutz_: same typo .... [14:47] ok i added the same group as a secondary group but it didnt work [14:47] XXDD [14:47] [TK]D-Fender: my /usr is 2.6GB [14:47] let me try to add it as a primary group [14:47] <[TK]D-Fender> chaosc: Out of 30 that's not bad.

[14:50] awij: I'm afraid I don't have much experience with theme customization and am unfortunately not in front of my linux box, I'm attempting to search for a solution via google, I'll let you know if I find anything [14:50] llutz_: who thinks thats a good thing? [14:51] llutz_: you shouldn't need to use paths since whatever you are running should already be on $PATH... you don't want . there because it's a security risk... you cd to someone else's directory and try to run a common command, and bam, you're running a trojan they left there for you [14:51] xzcvczx:all you guys prepending a pointless "cd /somewhere" to a command ;) [14:51] psusi: don't tell that to me... [14:51] llutz_: fine then..... du -sh /* [14:51] happy :P [14:52] xzcvczx: imho its bad habit to cd wild around (see psusi why), but unfortunately very common [14:52] erUSUL, i did log out and log in again yes. btw, this is the /var/www directory that im trying to give permission to. ive installed it using my main desktop user, and now i created a second user to give it access there [14:53] so i use the second user as a "web user" only and dont have to mix with the main account [14:53] <[TK]D-Fender> psusi: He didn't specify the path to the app... he simply didn't pass the target path to the app.. it's not like it would execute anything differently [14:53] g0tcha: the usual procedire is to create www-data group and add users there then change the group of to www-data /var/www/ [14:54] llutz_: there is no reason not to other than why type two lines instead of one. I think you misunderstood what I said... [14:54] erUSUL, so i add "new-user" to www-data group and not to the group of the main user? [14:54] cuz ls -la shows the group owner as the main user === Nexus-Wind is now known as DArkenvy === DArkenvy is now known as darkenvy [14:55] whats the files that controls my montior display? xorg.conf? where is it? [14:56] psusi: its still bad habit to "cd" around [14:56] llutz_: well then i am a bad user... so sue me [14:56] llutz_: why? [14:56] darkdevil, not sure its there but look in /etc/X11 [14:57] however i would never have '.' in path [14:57] well knowingly anyway [14:57] darkenvy use whereis xorg.conf [14:57] you know the aanswer though dont you :) [14:57] init.d? [14:57] llutz_: the only reason not to is to save keystrokes... and if you plan on doing multiple commands in the target directory, then you save more by cding there first than passing the path to each command [14:58] why is my computer showing an unmounted iso? [14:58] psusi: just to minimize the risk of doing something unwanted. stay here and read how many people deleted wrong dirs/files because they didn't realize where in the filesystem they were [14:58] ruan: because it isn't mounted? [14:58] So I got 3 locations :S [14:58] psusi: jsut one example [14:58] xorg: /usr/lib/xorg /usr/lib64/xorg /usr/include/xorg [14:58] psusi: isn't it supposed to disappear when it's unmounted? its an iso === dewman2 is now known as dewman [14:59] llutz_: that's pretty hard to do when the path is right there in the prompt all the time ;) [14:59] it takes tallent to screw that up, hehe [14:59] psusi: you expect people to read? whow [14:59] what software can I use to read the code of a .jpg ? [14:59] llutz_: lol that was once and yes i did rm -rf / accidentally as root [14:59] llutz_: that and have situational awareness [14:59] darkenvy what exactly are you doing [15:00] <[segfault]> darkenvy: There is no xorg.conf by default in 10.10, but you can make one and add anything you need to it if your monitor needs some custom setup. [15:00] awij: I'm having trouble finding specifics but it seems that you may be able to extract elements from both themes and then mix and match them in a new custom one. see http://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/850244-mix-n-matching-icons-from-different-themes-in-ubuntu-910/ also this guy was apparently able to combine several (so there must be a way) http://ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=854865 I suggest you dig deeper [15:00] psusi: you're an optimist [15:00] I found it on ubuntu forums. its /etc/X11/xorg.conf [15:01] llutz_: naw... I just think if you're that clueless, you don't belong in a command prompt in the first place.. whenever you try to make things more idiot proof, they build a better idiot ;) [15:01] I have to goto 1 monitor for a week, but this 4 monitor setup with xinerama was HELL setting up [15:01] darkenvy: now that you've found xorg.conf, you should probably create a back up . .. [15:01] /whoi/last 122.177.14.120 [15:01] oops [15:02] is there a warning given before using rm-rf? it should shout: WARNING: you are about to delete all of your files [15:02] y/n [15:02] psusi: i agree but being here in the channel for a while showed me a different reality. sorry for being [15:02] ruan: did you manually run losetup and then mount /dev/loop0? [15:02] ruan: there effectively is now [15:02] ruan, I have never seen a warning [15:03] ruan: not for ubuntu, i dont thinkk [15:03] ruan: this was a number of years ago though [15:03] xzcvczx, what is the warning? [15:03] psusi: no, i mounted it from gui [15:03] ruan: no... unix assumes you know wtf you are doing... it doesn't hold your hand [15:03] coz_: oh i thought they had added a way to stop you doing it [15:03] Can someone please tell me the correct name for the chromium browser on the command line so I can launch it please [15:03] ruan: some distros have an alias to rm (rm = rm -i) [15:03] ruan: you can enable it if you compile coreutils from source [15:03] ruan: you sure you unmounted it? try to eject it [15:03] so how do I restart GDM? the old method of doing /etc/init.d/gdm restart gives me that bullcrap about upstart. Why cant I find ANY documentation on the usage of upstart? [15:03] ruan: you can run rf with a flag that warns you about deleting files, see llutz_^ [15:03] psusi: i unmounted it from gui [15:04] xzcvczx, no but what was added is a warning to close the terminal in case you accidentally click close or alt+F4 while its running espeically as root user [15:04] becker_11: chromium-browser [15:04] joel135: thanks' [15:04] darkenvy: sudo service gdm stop/start (one after the other not both at the same time) [15:04] coz_: my bad.... my memory must be failing [15:05] darkenvy, i think you need to reconfigure xserver [15:05] xzcvczx, no I doubt that,,, new things pop up withouth any explanation sometimes [15:05] without [15:06] why do you think I neeed to reconfigure xserver? [15:06] I dont have any issues I jsut like the old command :) [15:06] anyway i did rm -rf / at one stage.... wondered a) why it took so long and b) why cd/ls were no longer working afterwards [15:06] oops [15:07] what was that? [15:07] darkenvy, why you want to restart gdm anyways [15:07] i had actually meant to do rm -rf . [15:07] Ive seen this in other channels too [15:07] darkenvy, that was a netsplit [15:07] !netsplit [15:07] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [15:07] the interwebz is dying!!!!!!!!! [15:07] darkenvy: « man upstart » « man initctl » « man init » « man 5 init » [15:07] !upstart | darkenvy [15:07] darkenvy: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ [15:07] netsplit [15:07] is netsplit still happening? [15:08] everyone hide your women! [15:08] ruan, probably not if people are still joining at an alarming rate :) [15:08] I want to restart GDM to create a new xorg unrelated to this one with 4 monitors [15:08] uh? what was that [15:08] setup a new non-xinerama display with one monitor [15:08] ruan: it's gone, don't worry about it [15:08] hi i want to used the projector but every time i want to connect a projector i have to restart. I am using the ATI FGLRX driver anyone can help please? [15:08] Im an everyday linux user, not a noob :P [15:08] ruan: Spam, just ignore it [15:09] oh, it looked like some kind of exploit [15:09] darkdevil, you might want a new session or delete the current xorg.conf ,, but in all honesty I have not gone beyond dual monitor set up and mine is done dynamically not via xorg.conf [15:10] brb guys [15:10] duongthaiha: what do you mean you have to restart? crash or does it just not show up on projector? === a is now known as Guest45771 [15:10] xzcvczx: it asked to to restart nothing like an error [15:11] whats the exact message as thats not much help [15:11] Does anybody have any ideas on how I could set up Ubuntu systems connected to a Windows domain so that when the domain user logs in they get a link (no matter where it is, home dir, documents folder, or folder on desktop) to auto point to their share on the Windows file server? [15:11] as it SHOULD be enough just to restart X at most [15:11] ciao! [15:11] xzcvczx: the message is you have to restart to apply the setting? [15:11] Roasted: is it authed?

[15:12] duongthaiha: well are you sure its restarting whole computer and not just restarting X already [15:12] ? [15:13] duongthaiha: xrandr should be able to enable/disable the 2nd screen [15:14] Hi everyone, I have a strange problem with playing flash videos: When I watch a video on youtube, close firefox, start up totem (every video player works) I can still see the last image of the youtube-video when I move the window over the place where it was shown in firefox. It's like it's stored in some sort of video cache, and everytime where there would be a black spot in any other video... [15:14] ...I watch on totem I can see the picture through. The only way I found to get rid of it is by restarting my session, but whenever I watch a youtube video the effect is back. A few days ago everything was ok so I suspect this has something to do with a flash update... Any suggestions?

[15:21] meaning Ic ant change brightness or contrast on this monitor because it thinks its in nvidia's 3D mode [15:21] Jorijn, ah ok... well for dual monitors ... global menu is a waiste of time in my opinion... it is far more efficient with menus on the application window [15:22] hi how do i add .rar support to archive manager?

[15:22] xzcvczx, well maybe ,, but remember the concept for global meny ie macos was designed orginally because monitors for mac were about 9" so global menu made sense on a small format screen [15:23] xzcvczx, quicker access [15:23] good ev, anyone tried on how to integrate facebook email to thunderbird? thanks [15:23] xzcvczx, on large realestate screens , even for mac,, to travel the distance to the menus from one end to the other wastes time [15:24] coz_: thats actually rather true... my computers a mac and yeah with the 23" screen at 1920x1080 its rather annoying [15:24] xzcvczx, yep it is an old habit in mac and a new bad choice in linux [15:25] xzcvczx, fine for small netbook screens however which is why it was incorporated in orgianl mac === eXXe is now known as Sosby === _Sly[FoX] is now known as Sly[FoX] === species_ is now known as species [15:25] oops === Guest30162 is now known as tazd [15:25] and 99% of the time i end up closing a window then having to potentially open another one or hold on dock to be able to qui it [15:25] quit [15:25] xzcvczx, right [15:26] none the less... the appropriate channel for ubuntu 11.04 is #ubuntu+1 :) [15:26] Hey.

[15:43] lol [15:44] xzcvczx: then I will still have to be sure all permissions in the whole system are set up correctly, and limit some directories... + scp is 'hard to use' for designeds [15:44] ruan cool! :-) [15:44] jrz: and whats wrong with it setting the perms to 200 anyway?

I love it.. but unfortunately, I'm not going to install it on my server just for that [15:46] Hi would love some help [15:46] sipior: dropbox is developing way too slow though.. still no sync any folder, no permissions, crappy paid plans [15:46] jrz: why not? easier than worrying about anonymous ftp. the problem has already been solved for you. [15:46] can any1 provide me with software related [15:47] sipior: that true though [15:47] villem: you need to provide a bit more information than that === dmart_ is now known as dmart [15:47] sipior: but it's insane that I cannot do filesharing over the net, with my own server [15:47] how about using torrents to do that?

[15:48] villem: whats mhdd? [15:48] its a programm that tests hdd [15:49] jrz: if you configure the ftpserver correctly it will do what you want [15:49] jrz: time for a new isp, then.

[15:51] xzcvczx, I just need a programm that creates bootable usb stick in ubuntu [15:51] maybe i'll just install some crappy php script which opens a whole directory [15:51] xzcvczx: 2.65-3ubuntu1 [15:51] villem: well i don't know one and unless the program is designed to be run alone you will need more than that [15:51] How can I set confirmation prompt in alias? I want it to ask"Do you really want to shutdown? yes/no [15:51] ty [15:52] villem, You can use dd to put it on a usb. If you are using Ubuntu right now then you can use the program available in the administration tab. [15:52] landonwo: the fact they are typing sudo poweroff then potentially their password is not enough? [15:52] you really need a confimation prompt? [15:53] yes [15:53] I'm always ssh'ed in to my server at home through a vm, and I forget, so when I go to powerdown the vm, I actually turn off the server [15:53] Any way to rearrange and resize windows in ubuntu from a script, like Devil's Pie did before?

[15:54] or sudo su -c poweroff [15:54] that's not a bad idea, how would I go about doing that? [15:54] landonwo: man sudoers or google sudoers [15:55] xzcvczx: will installing all 3 available versions cause conflict? [15:55] no [15:55] lordjj: what are you trying to build?

If I select them and hit "delete" what happens? :-O [16:01] ya afflicto, everyone is a noob once... just like everyone sucks *00b once [16:01] Afflicto: if you do not want them there just disable the show volumes in nautilus config [16:01] I can determine the time the machine started. I want to know when a event occured after startup in the dmesg [16:01] landonwo, Look into "sudo shutdown -h now", I believe you can create a confirm prompt with that if I'm not mistaken. I'll search for you if I can remember where it's at. [16:01] Afflicto: you can't delete them [16:01] what's the command to find what kind of format a USB stick has ? df -h lists it as /dev/sdf1 [16:01] Ok, erUSUL. How do I do that exactly?

[16:03] ok wait [16:03] landonwo: well won't allow "poweroff" to work but it will allow /sbin/poweroff [16:03] llutz: do you know of a bash script? [16:03] which you are less likely to do accidentally [16:03] I have links on the desktop that looks like a Hard drive. "Win", "System Reserved", "Software\Games" and "Download". [16:03] jlh2206: some basics [16:04] I checked the checkboxes in the Config-edit thing and it added more new icons only. (they were off).

[16:06] hence my very quick and abrupt disconnect [16:06] landonwo: really? who did you apply it as?

[16:06] could you write that again [16:06] fix* [16:06] I'll add it as a user [16:06] landonwo: let me try it propoerly [16:07] xzcvczk: alright, I just checked my alias file and it's not in there, I must've added it incorrectly [16:07] nah alias doesn't hang round [16:07] you need to add it to your profile or your bashrc === Guest17839 is now known as DarkDevil === DarkDevil is now known as Guest69338 [16:09] landonwo, I created a bash script for you. http://paste.ubuntu.com/575552/ [16:09] landonwo, That is the only way I know how to confirm a shutdown. [16:09] Just alias it. [16:10] you are amazing, thanks a ton [16:10] landonwo, No problem! Hope that works for you. [16:10] you may want to replace shutdown -h now with poweroff if you want the computer to actually turn off [16:10] as some won't turn off with the halt command [16:11] xzcvczx, shutdown -P ? right? [16:11] I forgot which flag it was. [16:11] does it really matter where I put the script? [16:11] hey anyone can offer a tip on Skype?

I wanted to ask how I can read the dbb files skype produces when we chat. I have googled it and doesn'e seem to find the answer somewhere... [16:14] xzcvczx: why? if I want anonymous users, why won't it let me? the defaults are seure.. if I want it to be insecure, it should let me [16:14] jrz: anonymous ftp is bound to be limited in a "very secure" ftp server [16:15] sacarlson1: a key file is not a text file with the password in it... [16:15] sacarlson1, You mean so you don't have to constantly type the same passphrase for each partition? [16:15] opps wrong line this one sudo cryptsetup --key-file /dev/shm/password.txt luksFormat /dev/loop0 [16:15] Then their site should state: vsftpd: the ftpserver where anonymous logins can't do anything [16:15] lol [16:16] or call is no-ano-ftpd [16:16] when I add the script to the alias file, should I add it as a normal user, or sudo add it? [16:16] landonwo: i am not actually sure there maybe a way to do it with the sudoers file although im not sure [16:16] waxrose: yes I never want to type the password it will come from an encrypted online source [16:17] anon_other_write_enable=YES besically doesn't work [16:17] Hello [16:17] Is there any Ubuntu music production channel on this server? === _evilpleasure is now known as evilpleasure === PhilMath- is now known as PhilMather [16:18] wtf [16:18] psusi: well it does work on the first line so I guess it is a file with a password in it [16:18] well the fact is a lot of people use vsftpd just because of your screwed up use case of it that it doesn't work for what you want [16:18] That was interesting. === Commander1024_ is now known as Commander1024 [16:18] jrz: sounds like you didn't want a secure ftp to begin with . . .

I can't recommend a specific method (again, I'm not familiar enough with this) but I'd [17:53] http://www.ideone.com/N6EyH [17:53] can you help me? [17:53] i installed [17:53] all things what i found in [17:53] mneptok: i am trying to accomplish a copy.... [17:53] sudo apt-cache search mono-addins [17:53] and sudo apt-cache search gtk-sharp [17:53] but the problem is same [17:54] http://www.ideone.com/N6EyH [17:54] this [17:54] hf_acid, thank you i will search [17:54] :s [17:54] fidyduce: fidyduce then use cp. and don't expect to boot off the backup.

[17:59] fidyduce: open a terminal and run "df -h" [17:59] Click on System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager. [17:59] In Settings -> Repositories, make sure you have an universe repository activated. [17:59] Search for vlc and install it. You should install vlc-plugin-pulse and mozilla-plugin-vlc as well. [17:59] If you are interested in streaming or transcoding, you should additionnally install libavcodec-extra-52 from a multiverse repository. [17:59] pcpower: ISO: http://www.feyrer.de/g4u/g4u-1.17.iso [18:00] how to activate universe repository??? [18:00] how can i restore my sound on ubuntu without restarting?

I will google it som more :) [21:54] hello [21:55] I built a amd64 x6 Phenom II rig this morning with 4gb 1333 DDR3 ram, and a 500 GB HDD. I dont have a disk drive but they gave me a free 4gb usb stick for free with my purchase so i decided to do a USB install from a live disk. I made a 10.10 USB Live Disk and tried using it to install Ubuntu, no luck. Then I made another .10 USB Live Disk, no luck. Then I tried .04 twice with no luck. Now I'm on a Mint Linux Live USB Disk and it hangs [21:55] okay I did [21:55] erUSUL: it says Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): (just type return) so no password? [21:55] jccc: did you get the correct version? 64-bit? [21:55] jccc: have you been checking the md5sum? [21:55] berefeira: Yes. [21:55] mickster04: Yes [21:55] berefeira: if he has a 64bit machine it doesnt matter if he uses 32 or 64 bit [21:56] mickster: ah, friend recently installed on a macbook, version mattered [21:56] jccc: nice choice, I have a similar phenom II hexcore box :) [21:56] jccc: when you say no luck, wht do you mean? that could mean it just took a while to boot and you got bored? [21:56] If i untar an archive into a dir that already contains the same structure as in the archive. Will it append the files in the existing folders? [21:56] berefeira: well we are talking about a pc, so no it doesn't [21:56] BlueBomber7: Does that mean you can help me? [21:56] mickster04: mk, no offense man [21:56] jccc: Mine has a harddrive :) [21:57] mickster04: No luck means it hangs, not freezes, but hangs at the same step "Preparing to install " [21:57] BlueBomber7: I have a HDD too, its 500gb [21:57] jccc: how long did you wait? [21:57] jccc: I can try, but I haven't seen any message you wrote for which I could provide much help. [21:57] میں عربی زبان سے بات نہ کرو ، میں اردو بولنا [21:57] I tried to install cheese, but it pops up this password thing, but I don't know it [21:57] mickster04: I waited WAY longer than this one step should take.

It should have only your own read/write/access permission (octal 700) % chmod 700 ~/.ssh what I do not understand how does chmod 700 stop ssh asking for a password [22:06] One compatible with windows formats >_> [22:06] maybe ntfs [22:06] brb [22:06] rhada: Presumably, the guide had you set up ssh keys. The ssh keys are stored in ~/.ssh. openssh-server will refuse to read ~/.ssh if the permissions on it are not secure. [22:06] rhada: trying to use a key pair? [22:07] rhada: it doesn't but if you set up the file permissons right, ssh can read the key pair properly [22:07] :| === CensoredBiscuit_ is now known as CensoredBiscuit [22:07] Why must it show my IP?

[22:09] version ssh 2 [22:09] rhada: for ssh to be passwordless, you have to setup authorized_keys file in the ~/.ssh directory [22:09] rhada: because that guide is having you create ssh keys without passwords, which is also why you don't get asked for a password when it's all set up [22:09] rww what flags should the USB have?

[22:15] pngl, many people do that to avoid dual booting === LjL-Temp is now known as Guest15666 [22:15] pngl, ah slowness i know nothing about... I generally only dual boot since I use windows occasionally and not regularly enough for virtualmachine [22:16] pngl: while installing Windows in Virtual box just provide enough RAM.

(In short, update broke the computer.) [22:49] ikonia: I do not understand your question, yoe mean what port? [22:49] or Jasonn I could use my VPS :P [22:49] ikonia: it's a movie file.

[22:50] Osmodivs: it sounds as if there is no readable file system on it [22:50] Expired: is it just that file? [22:50] No. [22:50] It is 14 of them. [22:50] Well, 14 that I've tried.

[22:50] Osmodivs: it can be, it doesn't mean the data is lost, there is just not a file system that ubuntu can read [22:51] pw-toxic: I believe it only shows users with a valid shell [22:51] ikonia, and how can i show users without a shell? [22:51] what is broadcast address? [22:51] pw-toxic: I don't know if you can [22:51] ikonia, IT was working a moment ago, perhaps a virus from the net?

[23:31] then install ubuntu to /dev/sda, no partition table [23:31] tonsofpcs: I have no idea how it works on windows, from linux you have to create a "file" to be the VM's file system [23:31] tonsofpcs: the image should remove the bulk [23:31] ikonia: thanks [23:31] then restart the vm and tell it to use the full hard disk [23:31] don't mount anything, but install grub to mbr === andrew_ is now known as Guest31637 [23:32] tprowx: the ##windows guys can help with that, that's not how it works in linux [23:32] or, just install grub using windows [23:32] ikonia: no... [23:32] it works that way with any other Linux other than Ubuntu [23:32] oh mine doesn't :( [23:32] i don't know how to get it to change [23:32] you can install to /dev/sda if you want, on e.g. arch linux [23:32] what controls the menu bar colour in ubuntu?? [23:32] tprowx: you can use a physical partition, but the most common solution is to use a file, but you can do as you see fit [23:33] ikonia: if I use a file, how do I migrate the file into the partition? [23:33] tprowx: you just put the file on the partition [23:33] tprowx: but as you won't see ext4 from windows, that's not the best idea === bullfrog1982 is now known as TheBullfrog [23:33] tprowx: use it as you see fit, you know your system/needs better than I [23:33] tprowx: why not just install on a hd to begin with?

[23:34] echo "true" [23:34] else [23:34] deadkitten: with arch lnux it almost is, all you have to do is install the GRUB bootloader to the MBR from Windows and reboot [23:35] tprowx: then use arch [23:35] apparently i'm not using gdm... what am i using?? : [23:35] :S [23:35] deadkitten: that is so dead blunt I do not know where to begin [23:35] I do not want to use arch. [23:35] hmm.. now what grub command do i run to remake the menu? [23:35] tprowx: use what ever you feel meets your needs best [23:35] fadax, are you using KDE? then it would be kdm, or xdm [23:36] grub-update I think [23:36] ikonia: I think ubuntu would be alright, unless I can get the arch linux to have proper power management and stuff for a laptop [23:36] tprowx: good luck [23:37] will there be a gubuntu starting with 11.4? [23:37] behel1t: not seen anything in development, I don't even know what gubuntu would be [23:38] thank you ikonia for all of your help [23:38] ikonia: Ubuntu with more upstreamy GNOME, I guess [23:38] goodbye [23:38] and no, there isn't one afaik. [23:38] ikonia - it's a portmanteau of gnome and ubuntu, since ubuntu is switching to unity as the default [23:38] rww: don't know why there would be one, what a random distro to make up [23:38] select the Classic GNOME option in gdm instead.

[23:38] ikonia: I've seen derivatives created for sillier things :( [23:39] /privmsg [23:39] ikonia - kubuntu exists, i assumed something similar would result from ubuntu's switch from gnome. [23:40] dougsko: that will also echo true if $filename is not set, so you might need to nest it in another if [ $filename ] statement [23:40] behel1t: Ubuntu 11.04 still uses GNOME. It just doesn't use gnome-shell. [23:40] behel1t: ok, so it's jsut something you made up, [23:40] behel1t: the ubuntu.com website documents the versions canonical release. [23:40] rww - thanks, I wasn't aware, thanks ikonia as well [23:40] gmachine_24: if you do that, your comp will get screwed up (wont boot), really depends what they are, but sometimes they are just updates of one Os, i would just leave it [23:41] Jasonn, yes, precisely they are just an update of one OS, or one version of Ubuntu. [23:41] When I move up to a new release, I wipe everything and start again. [23:41] Hi, I was dist-upgrading my Ubuntu Server LTS, and I got this question: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=zGdZ2ZxU. What does it mean exactly? [23:42] gmachine_24: the EXACT same thing happened to me yesterday, my comp stopped booting, and i had to reinstall os, DONT TOUCH THEM - [23:42] Jasonn, aye aye, chief. [23:42] duongthaiha: actually, what i typed to dougsko was meant for you [23:42] Of course, the problem would be partially solved if I upgraded one or two machines from 8.04 :F [23:42] PeterNL: it's asking where you would like to install grub [23:42] er, :) [23:43] ikonia: Oh, I use raid1 with mdadm for my whole system. Both drives should be the same. So I should leave both selected? [23:43] PeterNL: if you can do both, that's great [23:43] hi [23:43] duongthaiha: on line 9, you don't need the semicolon [23:43] gmachine_24: i dont know much about linux, but i also know that i was so determined to get rid of that to make it boot automatically without hitting enter, and then BOOM with a simple sudo -i && rm ***.tar.gz, my comp stopped bootiung [23:43] ikonia: okay, thanks! [23:43] duongthaiha: pardon, line 7 [23:44] overclucker: Thanks i am trying with it now [23:44] hi wat is a spanish channel? [23:44] Jasonn, yes. Danger lurks. [23:44] antonio_: /join #ubuntu-es [23:44] yepp [23:44] !es | antonio_ [23:44] antonio_: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. [23:44] thx [23:44] although............. I think you can look at the grub menu [23:44] ./grub - dont touch that folder [23:45] lo.. any one got Exchange 2010 EWS working with evolution? [23:45] Not MAPI [23:46] overclucker: still got the same error :-( here is my current code [23:46] overclucker: http://paste.ubuntu.com/575768/ [23:46] is it due to be fixed at some point... [23:46] duongthaiha: you need a space after $filename [23:47] overclucker: Ohh thanks a lot it work now :D really appreciate [23:47] i have to do a sudo service gdm restart every time i boot if i want my ubuntu menu bar to go back to the nice dark grey colour... why could this be ? [23:49] Krycek: is there something you need? [23:50] Hey guys [23:50] I'm having trouble booting with ubuntu [23:50] I get an error on a pci device [23:50] no [23:50] which one? [23:50] devices/pci1000 or pci0000 [23:50] Not sure [23:50] fadax, not sure why but killall gnome-panel works as well [23:51] Pat_: that would be either an unidentified HDD, a disk drive, or a floppy drive [23:51] So I should disconnect my external drives? [23:52] Pat_: either way, open up yer comp and check all the cables that connect to HDD's, Disk Drives, and floppy drives, and try again [23:52] Pat_: Yes, also disconnect all devices except for your mouse/keyboard [23:52] Do you think my wireless USB is the problem? [23:52] guys i can not burn because my burner is not detected any help with this issue? [23:53] Pat_: no, its an internal device, but it cant hurt to narrow down the problem [23:53] tenochslb: check the connection to your CD drive, reboot, and try again [23:54] Everything is fine on my computer [23:54] How would I be talking to you right now if it wasn't [23:54] I just burned the dvd using infraburner [23:54] jasonn, it is a laptop and i am trying to back up because the latop is havding issues booting up. [23:54] hi, i'd like to make automatic backups of my mysql database... how should i do this? [23:54] pw-toxic, look into mysqldump [23:55] use a cron job to dump your databases regularly [23:55] Pat_: another computer? There is various ways you can be talking to me, but as i sais, check all internal/external connection [23:55] jasonn, so i can not turn it off i am afraid it wont boot up [23:56] tenochslb: dont know how to help you there mate [23:56] logicalor, can sqldump create sql files? [23:56] mysqldump is mysql's default export tool [23:57] it exports sql file with all the database / table creation commands, and insert commands for the data [23:57] im going to try this [23:57] # Appears as ANNA [23:57] Krycek: sorry about before, my IRC client was stuck at the part where you said: /privmsg [23:58] jasonn, thanks === Anonymous is now known as Guest92847 [23:58] `ah ye np xD [23:58] so im running vbox with ubuntu x64 without ubuntu-desktop and just ubuntu-standard. during setup i had the network adapter enabled but the virtual cable unplugged. now im trying to do an apt-get update but i don't have any connectivity [23:58] Krycek: do you want a free BNC? :) [23:59] # Appears as MAYNARD [23:59] oh god [23:59] # Appears as LANCE [23:59] sure [23:59] (#G010E110M1Tgewt) hey gewt [23:59] lolwhat === administrator is now known as Guest55072
