| johnny77 | xyclo: Is it encrypted? IS that the password you just changed? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| xyclo | hm. | 00:00 |
| xyclo | not sure if it is encrypted | 00:00 |
| trinikrono | =\ | 00:01 |
| trinikrono | use wpa2 | 00:01 |
| johnny77 | xyclo: Do you know if you use DHCP to obtain a IP address? | 00:01 |
| trinikrono | try hooking up the wire from the modem directly to the pc without the wireless and see if it is still slow | 00:01 |
| xyclo | Yes, I do use wpa2 | 00:02 |
| xyclo | I did not realize that was the encryption you referred to... | 00:02 |
| xyclo | Yes, wired it is still low | 00:02 |
| xyclo | dhcp, I do not know johnny77 | 00:03 |
| trinikrono | xyclo: to me my ubuntu is faster on the internet than the windows pcs in terms of downloads and such | 00:04 |
| trinikrono | cant you go on a speedtest website and confirm it | 00:04 |
| trinikrono | like here http://speedtest.net/ | 00:04 |
| xyclo | i did. Around 0.96Mb/s download | 00:04 |
| trinikrono | =\ that is alot faster than mine and i have a 5mb | 00:06 |
| bhe | trinikrono: i'm modern babay! I don't have any of that antique hardware ;) | 00:06 |
| trinikrono | bhe: you cant borrow your little sisters headphones or something? | 00:07 |
| bhe | lol, o geez. let's pretend on on a stranded island, and there aren't any hardware stores or old computers :) | 00:08 |
| bhe | im going through one of the guides you sent. havent lost hope yet | 00:08 |
| trinikrono | bhe http://linuxowns.wordpress.com/2008/07/08/how-i-got-my-usb-headset-to-work/ | 00:08 |
| trinikrono | erm be careful | 00:09 |
| trinikrono | bhe: are you going to try that? | 00:12 |
| bhe | i did for a second. then the very first instruction failed. im going to remove all things sound related. | 00:15 |
| xyclo | Sorry, my xchat closed by mistake | 00:16 |
| johnny77 | xyclo: I'm not sure what you can do in ubuntu, but have you had your cable company out to check the connection? One time there was a bad connection on the telephone pole and that helped my speed. | 00:17 |
| xyclo | Whenever I call, I wait 20 mins for service. As soon as I say Linux, they say they cannot do anything | 00:21 |
| xyclo | Thanks for your help, johnny77 and others | 00:21 |
| trinikrono | xyclo: goodluck | 00:23 |
| xyclo | thanks trinikrono! | 00:25 |
| bhe | trinikrono, u still around? | 00:52 |
| bhe | If anyone could help, that'd be amazing. According to this site: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure - Step 17: play -D plughw:0,3 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav My sound is actually working! I just need to edit a file "/etc/asound.conf" that doesn't exist on my system. Can anyone tell me if I should create this file since it doesn't exists or what? | 00:57 |
| trinikrono | bhe: you can try that | 01:03 |
| bhe | no it is working, it's just i don't have a asound.conf | 01:03 |
| bhe | i need to set card 1, not 0, as default sound card | 01:03 |
| trinikrono | well make it and see if it works | 01:04 |
| bhe | brb trinik, ill let you know if im game | 01:10 |
| bhe | holy crap trinik, i rebooted and now have no sound drivers.... | 01:16 |
| bhe | but they were working prior to the reboot | 01:17 |
| trinikrono | bhe: sounds like you are having a time with this | 01:17 |
| bhe | a glorious one. | 01:17 |
| bhe | the good news is i made sound come out from the headset. | 01:18 |
| trinikrono | lol you did? | 01:18 |
| bhe | brb, rebooting. again. | 01:18 |
| bhe | yeah, but that was prior to the reboot. | 01:18 |
| bhe | I was trying to make my default soundcard a different one and boom! goes the dynamite. brb | 01:19 |
| bhe | need help connecting to a wireless network (wireless card is working) just dont know how to connect with the wpa | 04:18 |
| bhe | how can i assure my wireless starts before my wired on boot? | 04:19 |
| aveilleux | bhe: Unplug the wired connection? | 04:20 |
| bhe | before my reformat, i had added the connection settings to a config file and uncommented a line that simply had eth0 | 04:20 |
| bhe | i just can't remember the file, or the settings :( | 04:20 |
| jdeslaur | /etc/init.d/networking ? | 04:21 |
| === Cheri703_ is now known as Cheri703 | ||
| jdeslaur | /etc/networking/interfaces | 04:21 |
| jdeslaur | bhe: i think those are what you are looking for | 04:21 |
| aveilleux | bhe: That disables the wired connection, equivalent to just unplugging the cable. Why do you need it plugged in? | 04:22 |
| bhe | jdeslaur, yessir! now i need to figure out the edits | 04:22 |
| jdeslaur | bhe: sudo nano /etc/networking/interfaces | 04:23 |
| jdeslaur | (thats the fun way) | 04:23 |
| jdeslaur | or, correct me if im wrong, go to system -> preferences -> network connections and bork around in there | 04:24 |
| bhe | no editting it is no problem, it's a matter of getting the config setup for my wireless | 04:24 |
| bhe | like how do i format the config | 04:24 |
| aveilleux | Fine, don't answer me | 04:25 |
| bhe | aveilleux, sorry didn't see your message. the problem is, im i wm xfce4, i dont know which gui to use so im trying to get the config setup with essid and wpa key | 04:25 |
| jdeslaur | aveilleux: i have noticed that with my wired/wireless connections it will default to the wired connection even though there isnt anything plugged in | 04:25 |
| jdeslaur | bhe: i'd share my config but im running a VM and there isnt anything in my ./interfaces | 04:27 |
| jdeslaur | side note how do i know if ssh is running? | 04:27 |
| jdeslaur | or is it always running? | 04:27 |
| bhe | jseslaur, i wish i could heklp but i can't. but the answer to my quesiton can be found here: http://nixcraft.com/ubuntu-debian/13278-etc-network-interfaces-wireless-wifi-example.html | 04:31 |
| jdeslaur | well that just makes sense | 04:35 |
| jdeslaur | anyone do much virtualization? | 04:41 |
| holstein | just virtualbox | 04:41 |
| jdeslaur | ok | 04:45 |
| jdeslaur | holstein: i was wondering if anyone had some opinions on the difference between kvm and virtualbox | 04:46 |
| holstein | jdeslaur: i find Vbox simple | 04:46 |
| === [47] is now known as collinp | ||
| jdeslaur | holstein: me too, using it now | 04:47 |
| holstein | i think it depends on what you're doing | 04:47 |
| Cheri703 | jdeslaur: I use vmware player | 04:47 |
| Cheri703 | I like it better than virtualbox | 04:48 |
| Cheri703 | I always had issues with vbox | 04:48 |
| jdeslaur | Cheri703: did vmware get better? i found it used to be hardware specific | 04:48 |
| jdeslaur | like what? | 04:48 |
| holstein | i think vbox vs vm is more like coke vs pepsi | 04:48 |
| holstein | there might be a situation when you would be better using KVM | 04:49 |
| Cheri703 | various freezes and hiccups in vbox, couldn't get usb support working (even in the non ose) properly. Had problems getting vpn to hook up in windows xp | 04:49 |
| holstein | server applications i would assume | 04:49 |
| Cheri703 | overall vmware player has been painless | 04:49 |
| holstein | VM and Vbox are what most users would be good to go with | 04:49 |
| Cheri703 | supports usb out of the box | 04:49 |
| * Cheri703 is a fan | 04:49 | |
| jdeslaur | ...hm | 04:50 |
| jdeslaur | i was going to try and set up a web server in virtualbox... | 04:50 |
| jdeslaur | i guess there is no harm | 04:50 |
| Cheri703 | also really friendly with moving the files... | 04:50 |
| Cheri703 | i.e. putting it on another partition | 04:51 |
| holstein | i have a web server running in Vbox | 04:51 |
| holstein | on my eee | 04:51 |
| holstein | for testing and what-not | 04:51 |
| jdeslaur | same | 04:53 |
| jdeslaur | im really glad that there are people smarter than me | 04:54 |
| holstein | hehe | 04:54 |
| holstein | me too | 04:54 |
| jdeslaur | we'd all be screwed | 04:54 |
| jdeslaur | this whole virtual machine thing is blowing my mind, and has for a long time | 04:54 |
| jdeslaur | seems like wireless in linux is a bit janky | 04:57 |
| bioterror | depends | 04:57 |
| jdeslaur | i should say wireless security | 04:58 |
| jdeslaur | then again i could just be talkin out of my ass | 04:58 |
| jdeslaur | when you input a key does it get rewriten with the encrypted key? | 04:59 |
| bioterror | you mean on disk? | 05:01 |
| jdeslaur | yea | 05:03 |
| jdeslaur | i guess i should assume so | 05:04 |
| bioterror | you get something into .gnome2/keyring | 05:04 |
| jdeslaur | hmm | 05:05 |

| kaushal | hi | 05:41 |
| kaushal | Can some one please guide me about ping output command ? | 05:41 |
| holstein | kaushal: you wanting to ping something? | 05:43 |
| holstein | ping -c 4 google.com | 05:43 |
| kaushal | holstein: yeah i know it | 05:43 |
| holstein | OH, you mean interpret the data... | 05:43 |
| holstein | gotcha | 05:43 |
| kaushal | yes | 05:43 |
| kaushal | whats the acceptable limit ? | 05:43 |
| holstein | depends | 05:43 |
| holstein | i usually get in the 20's | 05:44 |
| holstein | maybe 40's | 05:44 |
| holstein | but it really depends | 05:44 |
| kaushal | holstein: so please explain me about http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/577332/ | 05:46 |
| holstein | eh | 05:47 |
| holstein | not ideal | 05:47 |
| holstein | kaushal: wired? | 05:47 |
| kaushal | yes | 05:47 |
| holstein | wifi? | 05:47 |
| holstein | wired... | 05:47 |
| holstein | hmmm | 05:47 |
| bioterror | high latency | 05:47 |
| holstein | kaushal: you got a router? | 05:47 |
| bioterror | stop torrenting! | 05:47 |
| holstein | bioterror: hehe | 05:48 |
| kaushal | bioterror: high latency ? | 05:48 |
| kaushal | help me understand it | 05:48 |
| kaushal | what does it mean ? | 05:49 |
| holstein | i would probably start trying to reduce variables | 05:49 |
| holstein | get a known good network card | 05:49 |
| holstein | on a known good machine | 05:49 |
| holstein | and bypass the router | 05:49 |
| holstein | call the ISP | 05:49 |
| holstein | have them test the modem | 05:50 |
| kaushal | ok | 05:50 |
| bioterror | kaushal, http://compnetworking.about.com/od/speedtests/a/network_latency.htm | 05:50 |
| kaushal | actually trying to understand the term "high latency" ? | 05:51 |
| holstein | latency is time | 05:51 |
| bioterror | depends about connection and what you ping | 05:51 |
| bioterror | I would always suggest to ping nameserver of your ISP | 05:52 |
| bioterror | or another close nameserver | 05:52 |
| holstein | yeah, try pinging something local kaushal | 05:52 |
| bioterror | I get from www.google.com 40ms even from my vps | 05:52 |
| bioterror | and from nameserver I get 0.7ms | 05:52 |
| bioterror | ^__^ | 05:52 |
| kaushal | ok | 05:52 |
| holstein | i ping google, then i ping one of my routers or my server | 05:52 |
| holstein | if i think i have a problem | 05:53 |
| bioterror | I ping nameserver always | 05:53 |
| holstein | bioterror: thats a good idea | 05:53 |
| kaushal | so also why we get different IPs for www.google.com ? | 05:53 |
| holstein | less variables | 05:53 |
| bioterror | kaushal, becouse of mirrors | 05:53 |
| bioterror | kaushal, google doesnt have just one computer in one place ;) | 05:54 |
| holstein | bioterror: you use your ISP's nameservers? | 05:55 |
| kaushal | less variables ? | 05:55 |
| kaushal | not sure i understand that | 05:56 |
| holstein | kaushal: if you have several points of breakage | 05:56 |
| holstein | its more challenging to trouble-shoot | 05:56 |
| holstein | if you can remove things from the equation | 05:56 |
| holstein | and test | 05:56 |
| holstein | then it can be easier | 05:56 |
| kaushal | holstein: trying to understand | 05:58 |
| kaushal | help me understand with examples | 05:58 |
| holstein | right | 05:58 |
| holstein | IF you have a router | 05:58 |
| holstein | bypassing that would remove a variable | 05:59 |
| kaushal | thanks holstein | 06:05 |
| kaushal | bioterror: Thanks | 06:05 |
| kaushal | Do you recommend some tutorials or books to understand more ? | 06:05 |
| holstein | kaushal: for networking? | 06:08 |
| holstein | i like that site bioterror linked | 06:08 |
| holstein | http://compnetworking.about.com/ | 06:08 |
| holstein | i was browsing it | 06:08 |
| kaushal | bioterror: yes | 06:11 |
| kaushal | thats really good | 06:11 |
| kaushal | much appreciated | 06:11 |

| ray_ | I meant I need to change the channel | 06:14 |
| ray_ | sorry, I am sick and can't think well | 06:14 |
| holstein | ray_: i havent seen that error before | 06:15 |
| holstein | im on channel 11 though i think | 06:15 |
| holstein | could be hardware specific i suppose | 06:15 |
| ray_ | ha ha, neither have I | 06:15 |
| holstein | shouldnt hurt to change it | 06:15 |
| holstein | and try | 06:15 |

| ray_ | linksys rtw54g router and a D-link wireless card | 06:16 |
| ray_ | give me a sec and I will find out the chipset for the card | 06:17 |
| holstein | ray_: what caused the error? | 06:17 |
| holstein | did you do a kernel update? | 06:17 |
| holstein | you could try booting into your older kernel | 06:17 |
| ray_ | I just updated | 06:18 |
| ray_ | before comming here | 06:18 |
| ray_ | I checked before coming here | 06:19 |
| ray_ | and I have this same error on another hard drive | 06:19 |

| ray_ | "00:08.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR2413 802.11bg NIC (rev 01)" | 06:19 |
| holstein | yeah, try channel 6 or something | 06:19 |
| holstein | and see | 06:19 |
| holstein | ray_: you cant boot the machine? | 06:20 |
| ray_ | I switched from channel 6 because our wireless phone | 06:20 |
| ray_ | but we should just replace the phone | 06:20 |
| holstein | channel 1 then | 06:20 |
| holstein | ray_: but, whats the problem? | 06:20 |
| holstein | can you not boot? | 06:20 |
| ray_ | I was getting the internet dropped all the time before I switched channels | 06:21 |
| holstein | right | 06:21 |
| holstein | but, is that just a message that flashes? | 06:21 |
| holstein | and its seems fine otherwise? | 06:21 |
| ray_ | but they are both in the same range that the phone should just be replaced | 06:21 |
| holstein | you got plenty of channels to try | 06:22 |
| ray_ | I get that message when I go into recover mode in the commanline text | 06:22 |
| ray_ | 11 channels | 06:22 |
| holstein | ray_: but everthing is working fine? | 06:22 |
| holstein | i wouldnt worry about it | 06:22 |
| holstein | if you get network | 06:23 |

| holstein | in the bios | 06:24 |
| holstein | OR update grub from one of them | 06:24 |
| holstein | whichever one is booting | 06:24 |
| ray_ | It must be unrelated | 06:24 |

| halpbatman | i can get it to work locally | 11:43 |
| halpbatman | but remote access gets refused | 11:43 |

| ibuclaw | halpbatman, behind a router? | 11:44 |
| halpbatman | yeah | 11:44 |
| halpbatman | I did port forwarding/ DMZ | 11:44 |
| halpbatman | neither worked | 11:44 |
| ibuclaw | when you say locally, from one computer -> another | 11:45 |
| halpbatman | yes | 11:45 |
| halpbatman | like from one laptop to another | 11:45 |
| ibuclaw | should be nothing stopping you if your connecting to your own network externally. :) | 11:47 |
| halpbatman | ibuclaw: i mean that's what I figured too.. when I'm on my own network. I can even ssh on my phone | 11:48 |
| halpbatman | ibuclaw: but when I try from a remote location (from another network) it says connection refused | 11:48 |

| johnny77 | If I'm installing a deb file is there command that will install dependancies as well? | 17:53 |
| charlie-tca | only when the .deb tells it what it needs | 17:53 |
| charlie-tca | That's why we use the Ubuntu repositories whenever possible | 17:54 |
| johnny77 | charlie-tca: I can't find Opera in the Ubuntu repositories. Something knows what it needs because dpkg give me a list of dependancies that are not installed. | 17:55 |
| charlie-tca | !info opera | 17:57 |
| charlie-tca | hm, obviously, the bot here hates me | 17:58 |
| johnny77 | !info opera | 17:58 |

| johnny77 | yes. | 17:59 |
| johnny77 | sudo dpkg -i blahblah.deb | 17:59 |
| szczur | johnny77, if you're installing with gdebi, it does inform what are the needed dependencies and installs them. if you're doing it with dpkg -i package.deb as far as i know it won't | 18:01 |
| raju | upto my idea, it will ask the dependancies while installing | 18:02 |
| raju | if it needs | 18:03 |

| charlie-tca | hm, same machine you installed opera on? | 18:30 |
| johnny77 | charlie-tca: yup, I'm thinking opera screwed something up. | 18:32 |
| johnny77 | I tried to purge opera, but receive this error: subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 10 | 18:33 |
| szczur | johnny77, http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/troubleshooting-debian-ubuntu-package-upgrades-removals.html < this should help | 18:41 |
| johnny77 | szczur: thank you. | 18:44 |
| johnny77 | ok, now opera is gone, but my other browsers are still crashing in bus errors. | 19:06 |
| charlie-tca | try re-installing or remove and reinstall on them | 19:08 |
| johnny77 | charlie-tca: is there a way to force re-install or do I have to uninstall first? | 19:08 |
| charlie-tca | Using Synaptic Package Manager, you can reinstall without removing first | 19:09 |
| johnny77 | I don't have synaptic installed :) | 19:09 |
| * ddecator loves synaptic | 19:10 | |
| charlie-tca | using apt-get, you can run sudo apt-get check | 19:10 |
| ddecator | johnny77: idk how you get by without synaptic on your computer | 19:10 |
| johnny77 | On my play computer, I'm trying to learn more about the CLI. | 19:10 |
| charlie-tca | and aptitude is just plain difficult | 19:10 |
| ddecator | charlie-tca: +1 | 19:10 |
| ddecator | it has its diehard fans though | 19:11 |
| charlie-tca | johnny77: if you find things wrong when apt-get check is run, you use sudo apt-get -f to force the corrections | 19:12 |
| szczur | Joeb454, you can run something like this sudo apt-get --reinstall install firefox or whatever package you want | 19:16 |
| sam22 | hello world. I am running Ubuntu server 10.10 and am trying to set up the sftp to work with file zilla on another computer. I can view all the directories on the server but cannot write to it. and when i go to vsftpd.conf to change the write_enable= to YES it says that I do not have write permission. help? what am i missing here? [12:13] <+bioterror> openssh-server works as sftpd | 20:25 |

| bioterror | use sudo to edit files other than your home folder | 20:31 |
| bioterror | !sudo | sam22 | 20:32 |
| ubot2 | sam22: 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). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 20:32 |
| sam22 | thank you very much! that's what i needed | 20:33 |
| bioterror | you're welcome | 20:33 |
| sam22 | ok well i still can't write files over filezilla | 20:34 |
| sam22 | do i need to enable anonymous ftp? | 20:34 |
| johnny77 | to reinstall a program: after removing do I have to reboot or anyting or can I just install again. | 20:35 |
| bioterror | johnny77, just install again | 20:35 |
| bioterror | johnny77, technically only a kernel update requires a reboot | 20:35 |
| bioterror | we are not using Windows 98 which requires a reboot after changing display resolution | 20:35 |
| bioterror | sam22, normal user cant change files, use SSH | 20:36 |
| bioterror | !ssh | sam22 | 20:36 |
| ubot2 | sam22: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 20:36 |
| johnny77 | bioterror: I was wondering if you were gonna say something like that. :) | 20:36 |
| bioterror | sam22, part of linux systems security is to keep users away from other files than home directory | 20:38 |
| bioterror | sam22, so you cant access files like that with "ftp client" | 20:39 |
| johnny77 | Chromium browser is crashing with a bus error. | 20:39 |
| sam22 | ok thanks. i got putty working already | 20:39 |
| bioterror | good | 20:39 |
| bioterror | sudo nano /etc/vsftpd.conf | 20:39 |
| bioterror | and you can edit it or what ever | 20:39 |
| bioterror | and ctrl + x = close | 20:39 |
| sam22 | thanks! | 20:40 |
| bioterror | sam22, I wish you a good and pleasant journey with *nix systems, you have found ssh ;) | 20:43 |
| johnny77 | After a little searching I found out that flashplugin-installer was causing the bus error. Is this what I'm supposed to be installing or is there another one? | 21:07 |
| charlie-tca | If you are using cli only, you don't have a gui, right? | 21:09 |
| charlie-tca | flash requires a gui browser | 21:09 |
| johnny77 | I have gui, but am tring to limit a lot of things to CLI. I have fluxbox installed. | 21:10 |
| charlie-tca | That is the correct flash thing for firefox and midori, as far as I know. | 21:11 |
| charlie-tca | I don't know if it is fluxbox compatible, though | 21:11 |
| bioterror | and chromium and and and ;) | 21:17 |
| johnny77 | I think it does because my other computer has fluxbox, but it also has gnome. | 21:18 |

| johnny77 | why would installing flashplugin-installer crash chromium browser in a bus error? | 23:26 |
