[00:00] <edbian> Broseph: you already did?  run this: sudo modprobe b43
[00:00] <gsfai> ill make an easier question
[00:01] <Broseph> edbian: I tried that before, should I restart networking now?
[00:01] <BanEvading> DCC SEND start keylogger 0 0 0
[00:01] <gsfai> how can i find out which file arecord reads from?
[00:01] <FloodBot1> NOTICE - The above was an exploit attempt that may have disconnected some users. Please ignore it, or type « /msg ubottu exploit » for more information.
[00:01] <edbian> Broseph: You could also restart networking.  sudo service networking restart
[00:01] <pfifo> k-lined lol
[00:01] <edbian> Broseph: Or the whole machine.
[00:01] <edbian> Broseph: You seem to have a good handle on what you're doing!  :)
[00:02] <Broseph> trying the reboot, I hope it magically works now
[00:02] <Broseph> brb in 5, thanks for the help though - hope to find you around when I get back
[00:02] <edbian> Broseph: inserting the module (b43), restarting network, and restarting the entire machine should all have the same affect.
[00:03] <edbian> Broseph: see you soon
[00:03] <Wicked> hello all. how do i get evolution to download all my mail form gmail?>
[00:04] <cobra-the-joker> Hey there every one ... Is the LTS for servers only or i can use it on my laptop ?
[00:04] <xangua>  Wicked go to gmail and enable pop or imap, the one that you like more
[00:04] <edbian> cobra-the-joker: You can use the LTS on anything you want.
[00:04] <xangua> cobra-the-joker: ubuntu is for desktops and servers
[00:04] <cobra-the-joker> Good
[00:04] <cobra-the-joker> LTS then
[00:04] <Xubuntunoob> i want to install qpspmanager but i dont know how to build from source
[00:05] <Wicked> xangua, ive done that...evolution can connect to gmail..and it downloaded some of my mail...but not all of it...i want evolution to download everything in my "All mail" section of gmail
[00:05] <bob__> also need to make sure, when assigning a router port to also remember to use noshut command and save config to start or it will revert to startup config when you reboot it
[00:05] <Xubuntunoob> is there any .deb  for powerpc ubuntu??
[00:05] <xangua> Wicked: do you use imap¿
[00:05] <Wicked> xangua, i have been using pop
[00:05] <Wicked> but i am looking into changing it to imap
[00:06] <Xubuntunoob> can someone help pls
[00:06] <Logan_> !please | Xubuntunoob
[00:06] <rcmaehl> LOLWUT!? FF1 in wine being faster than FF4.  Is this ubuntu's fault?
[00:06] <xangua> imap is better for what you want, keeps your webmail and desktop mail sync Wicked
[00:06] <xangua> !ot | rcmaehl
[00:06] <Wicked> hmm ok
[00:07] <Xubuntunoob> !repeat
[00:07] <Xubuntunoob> i did
[00:08] <virusuy> hi all
[00:08] <Xubuntunoob> searched google like 3 times
[00:08] <Xubuntunoob> and the forums
[00:09] <pfifo> Xubuntunoob, yes of course there are .deb files for Ubuntu power pc.
[00:09] <Xubuntunoob> pfifa   is there any .deb files for qpspmanager?
[00:10] <Wicked> hmm....its still not download all my mail
[00:10] <Broseph> back
[00:10] <pfifo> Xubuntunoob, I dont know, but if you look in the repo's and don't see it, and then look on the projects site, and still do not see any, then there is a good chance that there are not.
[00:11] <Broseph> edbian: no dice, I should mention that I've setup wlan0 in /etc/network/interfaces and I've got it setup in wpa_supplicant as well, should I undo those changes?
[00:11] <edbian> Broseph: I need the output of dmesg again.
[00:11] <Xubuntunoob> pfifa wheres the projects site??
[00:11] <edbian> Broseph: and, while you're at it.  pastebin /etc/network/interfaces in their as well
[00:13] <Belial`> has anyone had any luck getting switchable graphics for nvidia working yet?
[00:13] <Belial`> using an acer with a geforce gt 420m.
[00:13] <pfifo> Xubuntunoob, youll have to ask google that
[00:13] <Logan_> !google | pfifo
[00:13] <culb> Results for | pfifo on Google:
[00:13] <culb> --
[00:13] <Logan_> culb: please turn that script off
[00:13] <Broseph> edbian: dmesg - http://pastebin.com/23CdaLMr, interfaces - http://pastebin.com/k8D9fWeZ, /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf - http://pastebin.com/ixqyQRua
[00:14] <pfifo> thankyou Logan_
[00:15] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: http://ernolf.blogdns.net/tiki-view_blog_post.php?blogId=3&postId=4
[00:15] <edbian> Broseph: The dmesg output is still saying that the firmware is missing.  Can you run this: sudo apt-get purge b43-fwcutter  and this sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter and pastebin everything it says?  The interfaces file will probably mess with things but I'm not worried about that so we'll leave it for now.
[00:15] <philipp_> RewriteRule style.css style.php
[00:15] <philipp_> does not work -.-
[00:15] <Broseph> edbian: network is wpa2-personal with AES encryption PSK, but I imagine it doesn't really matter if those settings are correct as long as I can't even do an iwlist scan
[00:15] <edbian> Broseph: Make sure the Ubuntu machine is online especially for the second command.
[00:15] <Broseph> edbian: 1 second
[00:15] <gsfai> Why is my system always configured somehow else that the usual systems, so nobody can help me?
[00:16] <edbian> Broseph: yes. that is exactly right.  iwlist scan should work
[00:17] <Mahjongg> hello, at some point I have locked the php version that I have on my system. I do not need that lock anymore and I have unlocked them and upgraded to the latest. Now When I do apt-get dist-upgrade apt wants to downgrade those packages... What am I missing ehre?
[00:18] <Broseph> edbian: http://pastebin.com/tPAtP7HC
[00:18] <edbian> Broseph: What does it do after 'setting up b43-fwcutter ...'  ?
[00:19] <Broseph> that was it, just returned be back to shell basically
[00:19] <philipp_> heeeeeeeello? someone know what i am doing wrong?
[00:19] <philipp_> RewriteRule style.css style.php
[00:19] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, i assume that works on more than just vaios?
[00:19] <philipp_> i did it in the httpd.conf
[00:19] <philipp_> RewriteRule style.css style.php
[00:19] <edbian> Broseph: I'm reading here: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#devicefirmware  what card is yours again.  (check using sudo lspci)
[00:20] <philipp_> but it does not work
[00:20] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: not sure, I don't buy dual video chip nonesense, give it a go
[00:20] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, that nonesense is pretty much the future of laptops.
[00:20] <philipp_> anyone?
[00:20] <Belial`> that's the problem with not having support for linux.
[00:20] <philipp_> come on!
[00:21] <Logan_> !please | philipp_
[00:21] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: if GPUs can clock up and down like regular CPUs, its a much sleeker solution
[00:21] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, they can. but onboard solutions still use less power than a dedicated gpu with power management.
[00:21] <Broseph> edbian : 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX (rev 02)
[00:21] <Broseph> 02:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[00:21] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: its as smart as having 2 CPUs in the system, 1 fast and 1 slow....
[00:21] <Broseph> bcm4318
[00:22] <edbian> Broseph: This is a bcm4318.
[00:22] <edbian> yeah
[00:22] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, that's actually a terrible analogy.
[00:22] <edbian> Broseph: Fully supported.
[00:22] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: why, they are both processing units, one is justfor graphics
[00:22] <edbian> Broseph: Let's see if you can manually place the firmware in /lib/firmware/b43
[00:22] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, so you're saying nvidia, intel, amd, and ati
[00:22] <Belial`> (which is amd)
[00:23] <philipp_> Logan_ well you guys know the answer... you just dont tell me...
[00:23] <Belial`> are wasting their time?
[00:23] <Belial`> because their dedicated solutions are just as good downclocked
[00:23] <Broseph> edbian: alright, do you have the link to the firmware on hand?
[00:23] <edbian> Broseph: I'm trying to find it
[00:24] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: no, they should make their units clock up and down just like CPUs do, saves users having to manually change their video chip manually, the system can detect the speed needed (just like cool n quiet) and use more or less power automatically
[00:24] <j5> hi, i have trouble with firefox 4 and flash-- theres lots of weird flickering and white blocks and bad mouse interactiveness, any ideas?
[00:24] <Belial`> ActionParsnip,  they do. it's called power management. something the opensource drivers don't have.
[00:24] <Bilz> hello. trying to work my mic on my acer 5738 laptop. i got it to work now but its really noisy ( i can hear my recordings... ) any ideas? trying to play around with alsakmixer but not really sure what i need to play around with in it
[00:24] <Belial`> but even with power management it still uses more juice than onboard.
[00:25] <Broseph> Step 2.On a computer with Internet access, download the required firmware files from http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o and http://mirror2.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.150.10.5.tar.bz2
[00:25] <Broseph> from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[00:25] <indrajeet> how to download ubuntu tweak?
[00:25] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: then they should invest more into power management so it uses less
[00:25] <indrajeet>  how to download ubuntu tweak?
[00:25] <xangua> indrajeet: go to ubuntu tweak web and read the instructions
[00:25] <Xubuntunoob> i was wondering how to download ubuntu tweak too
[00:26] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, you have no clue what you're talking about.
[00:26] <oasisTopher> Hi, I have 10.04 Desktop 64bit.  I installed apcupsd and installed it at the following page, but it still says "error contacting..""..Connection refused : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/apcupsd
[00:26] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: the switching thing is a cheap workaround
[00:26] <ActionParsnip> indrajeet: http://ubuntu-tweak.com/
[00:26] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, clock speeds aren't everything. they'd have to literally cripple the hardware to do that.
[00:26] <edbian> Broseph: Did you see the blue screen asking about firmware?
[00:26] <ingi> I have a proplem w/ pksc 11 not login in ff4!!! plz help
[00:26] <edbian> Broseph: Try installing: sudo apt-get install bcm43xx
[00:26] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, maybe you need to read up a little more.
[00:27] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: its a cheap workaround, but if companies will support it then it's fine
[00:27] <Broseph> edbian - no, no blue sreen
[00:28] <Broseph> no bcm43xx package found
[00:28] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, cpu makers are giving their cpus integrated graphics, graphic makers are making dedicated cpus and writing drivers to switch to the onboard gpus to save battery life. that's a cheap workaround opposed to crippling the dedicated hardware and nullifying the entire point of dedicated hardware?
[00:28] <Belial`> i'm sorry, dedicated gpus*
[00:29] <ingi> An error occurred during a connection to umsoknir.audkenni.is.
[00:29] <ingi> PKCS#11 token was inserted or removed while operation was in progress.
[00:29] <ingi> (Error code: ssl_error_token_insertion_removal) can sobody help plz?
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: what if you want something in between, do we need 3 GPUs?
[00:29] <aruns> hi someoen here was helping me with my sound configuration and recommeded i install some generic drivers. but now x won't start and it throws me straight to the console login.
[00:29] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, that makes no sense...
[00:30] <Belial`> there is no in between.
[00:30] <aruns> dmesg doesnt have anything, but trying to run startx, says nvidia module not found.
[00:30] <edbian> Broseph: There is a bug in the b43-fwcutter package.  I'm reading.
[00:30] <Belial`> it works 100% perfect on windows and osx
[00:30] <Broseph> edbian: oh noes! link?
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: and what if you need more, do we turn on and use all 3?
[00:30] <philipp_> where do i create the /.htaccess file?
[00:30] <daanish> can someone help me remember how 'what is the best...' worked here?
[00:30] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, that's what sli is for.
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: thats because of the support, Linux doesn't get the same love
[00:30] <Belial`> or crossfire
[00:30] <Wicked> can anyone help me make it so that evolution downloads everything from my gmail account including my "all mail" folder on gmail?
[00:31] <edbian> Broseph: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx  go waaay down to install b43- No INternet Access
[00:31] <Wicked> i cannot figure out how
[00:31] <daanish> what is the best
[00:31] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, i know. it sucks. because i'd rather use linux. but unfortunately, my laptop is being wasted right now. it's a shame.
[00:31] <xangua> Wicked: use imap, already told you
[00:31] <Wicked> xangua, i now am.
[00:31] <Belial`> nvidia doesn't want to support it on linux and x.org developers don't want to make it work either.
[00:31] <Wicked> xangua, and its *still* not
[00:31] <edbian> Broseph: And, can you show me what is in /lib/firmware/b43/   ?
[00:31] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: moan to the manufacturers, they may get enoughh voices and support it
[00:32] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, moaning to them means nothing when x.org won't implement it.
[00:32] <Broseph> yes
[00:32] <ThatGuyOverThere> Is there any way that I can change my mouse gestures?
[00:32] <Wicked> xangua, when i hit send/receive in evolutin it pops up and says "scanning folders in <account>@gmail.com"
[00:32] <ThatGuyOverThere> Tapping with two fingers on my mousepad used to middle-click and three fingers used to be right click. Now they're switched.
[00:32] <Wicked> but it is not downloading all my messages
[00:33] <Broseph> edbia: does not exist..
[00:33] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: well if you won't make moves to improve the issue, you can't complain
[00:33] <xangua> it will take a while, depending of the amount of data you have Wicked
[00:33] <kernalzero> I'm building an atom webserver for my home...great right... I'm new to server operating systems.  would you suggest I install ubuntu desktop then virtualize an install of ubuntu server? or just throw ubuntu server on the new server box and go?
[00:33] <Rodolfo> bad experience with U10.04. Still experiencing HICS
[00:33] <edbian> Broseph: I figured.  Follow the direction for b43 - no internet access   (how annoying is this?!)
[00:34] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, there's nothing i can do. x.org won't don't it. period. neither will nvidia. there's petitions, emails, etc. it's not happening.
[00:34] <oasisTopher> anyone configure apcupsd?
[00:34] <Belial`> not any time soon.
[00:34] <Broseph> edbian: will do and report back :)
[00:34] <Wicked> xangua, since i setup imap(before i ate dinner..so at least 20 mins) it has not downloaded a single new message
[00:34] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, so again, you don't make sense.
[00:34] <edbian> Broseph: You can skip step 1
[00:34] <xangua> ThatGuyOverThere: i use easyestrock for mousegestures
[00:34] <Kaie`> ActionParsnip, you speak garbage.
[00:35] <ThatGuyOverThere> xangua: Thanks. I'll give it a try.
[00:35] <philipp_> where the hell do i have to write my /.htaccess to enable mod_rewrite?
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: if you sit in a corner and moan that stuff doesn't work or stuff isn't how you like it and make zero change then its pretty poor. If you get up and make changes and try and make things better then things may change, they may not
[00:36] <Bilz> hello. trying to work my mic on my acer 5738 laptop. i got it to work now but its really noisy ( i can hear my recordings... ) any ideas? trying to play around with alsakmixer but not really sure what i need to play around with in it
[00:36] <Belial`> ActionParsnip, make what changes? i think you have no clue what you're talking about. i've emailed nvidia, i've signed petitions, i've tried hacks. nothing.
[00:36] <Belial`> so what do you mean?
[00:36] <ingi> (Error code: ssl_error_token_insertion_removal) can sobody help plz?
[00:36] <ActionParsnip> Belial`: that sort of thing, yes
[00:36] <Belial`> ....ok, i'm done talking to you
[00:36] <Belial`> christ
[00:36] <bfbruno> tem algum brasileiro ai?

[00:40] <oasisTopher> OK, I found it using lsusb.  is there an option on the command line?  for instance on older versious you could cat /proc.... and it would tell you something like Driver=hid or Driver=none
[00:40] <ActionParsnip> visual1ce: you need to reassociate opening folders with nautilus
[00:40] <oasisTopher> I mean an option of lsusb that will tell the driver commanding the device

[00:55] <TecnicoDPC> join/ #linuxjournal
[00:55] <blue112> g'night ubunteros
[00:56] <philipp_> you guys are useless... i try to find somewhere else help -.-
[00:57] <xangua> truepurple: and are you sure  you have administrator provileges¿
[00:57] <laanan> can anyone help me get my acer aspire one to work with ubuntu netbook: specifically, wifi? It doesn't seem to recognize it. I am dualbooting with win7
[00:57] <V33X> why do Linux drivers need the Linux kernel source to install on Linux
[00:57] <induz> ActionParsnip, -thesaurus-en-us is installed
[00:58] <induz> but can i setup to right click?
[00:58] <truepurple> xangua: I installed it, why would it install without anyone being given administrator privileges?
[00:59] <edbian> Broseph: hurray!
[00:59] <edbian> Glad I could help
[00:59] <truepurple> xangua: If I don't have administrator priviledges, no one does.
[00:59] <V33X> why do Linux drivers need the Linux kernel source to install on Linux?
[00:59] <ActionParsnip> induz: that's all I can suggest dude sorry
[01:00] <Broseph> edbia: thanks so much, if you want the askubuntu rep: http://askubuntu.com/questions/32289/activating-wireless-drivers-in-cli
[01:00] <ActionParsnip> V33X: so you can compile the driver, it needs to know how to talk to the kernel. it will also be only compiled for that kernel
[01:00] <Broseph> edbian: otherwise I'll answer it lol
[01:00] <induz> hello
[01:00] <xangua> V33X: because the drivers are on the kernel
[01:00] <V33X> OK, thanks :)
[01:01] <nerdy_kid> for some reason my ambiance menus are white instead of dark gray.

[01:12] <induz> how can i use extension on OOffice... i dont see it on tool?
[01:13] <vatzec> Hey :-) I'm using the newest stable version of Ubuntu and I'm using the ambiance theme (the one with the window buttons on the left by default), however what annoys me is that there is no window icon displayed in this theme. Is there any way I can fix it while still using this theme? It's very cool.
[01:14] <vatzec> "New Wave" (another bundled theme) does display icons by default
[01:14] <ThomasB2k> vatzec
[01:14] <vatzec> Yep?
[01:14] <NeT_DeMoN> Hi, is there anyone who can assist me in a chroot install of ubuntu?
[01:14] <ThomasB2k> Vatzec, a program called Ubuntu Tweak allows you to add the icon back and do a lot of other cool stuff as well
[01:14] <vatzec> Oh. Do you know what exactly it does to put the icon back in?
[01:15] <vatzec> I'd rather do that manually :-)
[01:15] <jofdko> hi, i'm trying to set up my printer and I get this: There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'client-error-not-possible'. What/s up?
[01:16] <pfifo> NeT_DeMoN, what exactly is the trouble?
[01:16] <fermulator> Anyone in here familiar with mdadm?   I'm getting a really slow RAID6 fresh build (new array creation) -- only 13MB/s  -- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10608656#post10608656
[01:17] <RealOpty> anyone have some suggestions for HDMI audio with nvidia card?

[01:17] <anoob> can i watch a flash stream with vlc? (http://www.redetv.com.br/aovivo)
[01:17] <induz> how can i install WirWib extension for OO it says Java impletmentaion error
[01:18] <pfifo> NeT_DeMoN, Im not sure if debootstrap is appropriate for an idiot, is there any reason your not doing a normal install?
[01:18] <NeT_DeMoN> pfifo: I don't have any cds or usb flash drives.
[01:18] <philipp_> it just does not work
[01:19] <philipp_> i followed 5 toturials how to enable mod_rewrite in perl
[01:19] <vatzec> I was hoping it's one of the things I can do in gconf-editor
[01:19] <philipp_> did what all tuts wanted
[01:21] <ActionParsnip> induz: do you have java installed?
[01:21] <induz> i guess so
[01:21] <pfifo> NeT_DeMoN, well, i learned how to chroot install by doing the LiveCD customization guide, but before I even started I knew all the ins and outs of building a working linux system. I am not sure if there is a up to date guide, but if you understand the process and know what the commands your running actually do, a walkthrough shouldnt be needed
[01:21] <ActionParsnip> induz: check, then in tools -> options make sure java is selected there
[01:22] <Ig0r> hi boys:) anyone to help me pls? i want to scan my local network for "mac address"
[01:22] <joentjuh> Hi, can anyone help me with a wireless+hibernation issue? - When I disable wireless in NetworkManager, it's always reanabled after hibernation (I want it to keep the state from before, or disabled).
[01:23] <ActionParsnip> Ig0r: nmap can do that
[01:23] <joentjuh> Ig0r: sudo nmap -sP 192.168.0.1-254 (match IP to your network)
[01:23] <Ig0r> tnx all :)
[01:23] <paperclip11> hello, is it possible to take ubuntu certified professional certification exam without having previous LPI's?
[01:23] <pfifo> NeT_DeMoN, gentoo is pretty much made to be installed via chroot, its processes are well documented and upto date whereas doing the same in ubuntu is a rare task and not many have a good reason to do it. perhaps you should look into gentoo
[01:24] <acidblue> just installed znc bouncer, but whois still shows my ip ??
[01:25] <meLon> How come I can refer to some of my ubuntu installations over the network as their hostname (http, ssh, etc) but sometimes I cannot?
[01:25] <induz> ActionParsnip, after tool--.Option---> where?
[01:26] <pfifo> acidblue, did you install znc on your local machine?

[01:27] <Snooter> I want to build a streamlined ubuntu to run from a pendrive. It needs to boot on various hardware and then run my perl backup script. No GUI/CUPS/etc required.  I'm building a ubuntu server onto a 32GB  pendrive now. Can anyone think of a better way?
[01:28] <Auriga> Hello, startup quesiton...? I have been playing with Arch of late, & there is a whole load of .xinitrc editing, where is the comparable file in Ubuntu?
[01:28] <pfifo> Snooter, your doing it right
[01:28] <ActionParsnip> Snooter: could use minimal iso then remaster it, add what you need
[01:28] <gizmobay> Can someone tell me how to add a password to a pdf file? I can't see how in PDFedit.
[01:28] <acidblue> yes I installed on local machine
[01:29] <acidblue> pfifo yes
[01:29] <pfifo> acidblue, then freenode is going to see you local machine connecting via its IP address
[01:29] <ActionParsnip> gizmobay: pdftk may be able to password protect
[01:30] <shcherbak> gizmobay: Use rar with password.
[01:30] <acidblue> pfifo, DOH!
[01:30] <vatzec> ThomasB2k: Ubuntu Tweak is cool, but unfortunately, it doesn't allow me to add icons to window title bars in Ambiance :(
[01:30] <vatzec> Only move the buttons.
[01:31] <gizmobay> I don't think the person I'm sending the file could handle rar
[01:31] <acidblue> pfifo, so I have to install on seperate PC ?
[01:31] <Ig0r> joentjuh: sorry i want to say xx.10.1 to xx.15.224
[01:32] <pfifo> acidblue, you need to rent a VPS/dedicated server with a static IP address, purchase a domain name, and ask your (dedi's) ISP to set reverse DNS lookups to match your forward DNS for thee domain name... then install znc on that server
[01:32] <BabyGirl> is there a imagebin plugin for nautilus also,i have pastebin :)
[01:32] <pfifo> or just rent a BNC from someone who already did this
[01:33] <acidblue> pfifo, thanks,  I suppose I could use a shell acount instaed/
[01:33] <xangua> BabyGirl: there are lots of scripts on gnome-look.org

[01:37] <meLon> nbtscan is showing all of my computers with samba installed.  I am able to access all but one of them through their HOSTNAME.  I am trying to figure out why this one is not able to be refered to by it's hostname.  Any suggestions?
[01:37] <truepurple> how can I install flash on ubuntu?
[01:38] <xangua> truepurple: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[01:39] <Snooter> meLon: Is it on the same network segment or routed?
[01:39] <truepurple> Do I need a internet connection for this to work?
[01:40] <meLon> Yes.  Snooter it's really simple setup.  I can ping COMPUTER1 and COMPUTER2 but COMPUTER3 will not respond.  (I can ping ANYTHING by ip, I'm taalking about hostnames).  It is unaware of a computer with the hostname COMPUTER3
[01:40] <meLon> I am not sure what packages I need installed Snooter, or if I need a windows computer as a server or what :P

[01:41] <pfifo> hi
[01:41] <ariel_> I have a small issue, after updating my drivers on ubuntu to the nvideo drivers, after the reboot looks good works fine, but my power icon at the top left is gone, any way to get this back?
[01:41] <Snooter> meLon: My thought was it was using broadcasts to resolve the names to IP addresses and a router was blocking the traffic for COMPUTER3.
[01:41] <fermulator>  meLon: in order to ping windows hostnames, you need winbind.   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1496488
[01:42] <fermulator> meLon: of course, as per that link, it can slow down DNS resolution
[01:42] <pfifo> ariel_, right click the panel, and add to panel, the shutdown applet
[01:43] <Kamenu> i'm having problems with missing screen resolutions, can someone please help me with this dilemna?
[01:43] <meLon> fermulator, Snooter .  All computers have winbind installed
[01:43] <fermulator> meLon: what's in /etc/nsswitch.conf though?  You need "wins" in there
[01:43] <ariel_> pfifo: that works, t/y but it's not quite the same as before.
[01:44] <meLon> fermulator, that would only need to be on the CLIENT/ping'er correct?  I haven't made any modifications to that file on any pc and I can still ping them
[01:44] <StepNjump> Hi guys, does any one know of a good proxy server I could be running off my Ubuntu desktop?
[01:44] <fermulator> meLon: indeed, only on client.  The defaults DO NOT include "wins", so you have to add it if you want to be able ping/resolve Windows hostnames.
[01:44] <fidyduce> so i did the most recent update and now all of my stuff seems to be running laggy is there something with the most recent update?
[01:45] <pfifo> StepNjump, define 'good' squid is the fullest featured, but configuration will take you days to understand
[01:45] <meLon> Well, I can resolve some of them already fermulator.  There is a specific computer that isn't playing nicely.  I'll make that modification, though
[01:45] <spirals> StepNjump, consider Privoxy
[01:45] <fermulator> meLon: this is a standard home network right? (workgroup, home networking), not active directory
[01:47] <StepNjump> Ok thanks pfifo and spirals, I am trying to allow my friends to have access to some US based websites. They live in a different country and would like to listen to some good music. Is it feasible with those?
[01:47] <pfifo> StepNjump, squid will do that
[01:47] <spirals> StepNjump, yeah that's a heavy duty application that Squid would be more applicable to
[01:48] <StepNjump> oh ok great thanks guys. I appreciate it
[01:48] <spirals> StepNjump, just make sure you secure the heck out of it or the entire world will be browsing US youtube on it.
[01:49] <[thor]> Hello there, i am using ubuntu 10.10, and i would like to create a custom launcher in my games menu. I wish to launch a file called 'brogue' which is, according to ' file brogue ' is: brogue: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, not stripped.  Now, when i create a new launcher, and point it to the brogue file, nothing happens. When i wish to r
[01:49] <[thor]> un it from a command line, i need to type ' ./brogue ' while i am in the proper folder. tl;dr::: How do i create a launcher in the Applications -> Games menu that launches ./brogue ?
[01:49] <meLon> fermulator, not 100% sure what you mean.  I just installed samba on the machines.  I can access some of them by hostname.  I cannot access one by the hostname
[01:49] <pfifo> StepNjump, if everyone involved is running linux, ssh's -D option will be quick and efficient
[01:49] <StepNjump> spirals, yes I figured! Is it hard to secure it well for someone who is not familiar with those? Should I put up a firewall?
[01:49] <meLon> fermulator, I just have a bunch of ubuntu machines and one windows machine (that is my brother's)
[01:49] <StepNjump> Yes I was planning to run ssh
[01:50] <fermulator> meLon: as I re-read that post I sent you, I recall now that winbind is /not/ the answer (even if it might work).  Apparently any system with samba installed, should properly handle netBIOS name resolution now
[01:50] <spirals> StepNjump, as long as you don't allow anonymous/open connections, that's the key
[01:50] <fermulator> meLon: capscrew has some good details in that thread
[01:50] <StepNjump> awsome ok!
[01:51] <spirals> StepNjump, otherwise you'll end up on those big lists of 'free proxies', and some guy will come into this channel and complain that he can't attack another server via ssh with your proxy, or something ;)
[01:51] <induz> has anyone used WritersTools for OOffice??
[01:52] <induz> its installed but i dont know how to use it
[01:52] <meLon> fermulator, Dude, I'm sorry for not doing what you said earlier.  The problem was that wins was not listed under nsswitch.conf.  That makes *NO SENSE* because it would resolve some of them, but not ONE.  Oh well.  It works now :\
[01:53] <StepNjump> spirals lol
[01:53] <jwash> hi, i can connect to my local network, I'[m using RDP right now, but I can't connect to any internet sites, any ideas? I'm using google's dns 8.8.8.8

[01:54] <theholder> PaPaYa software center
[01:55] <eamon> How do I compile ubuntu?
[01:55] <izinucs> eamon: ubuntu is made up of many packages.. you don't "compile" ubuntu
[01:55] <pfifo> Why cant I install Ubuntu on my A:\ drive?
[01:55] <PaPaYa> how do i launch it?
[01:56] <izinucs> pfifo: a floppy disk? really?
[01:56] <Jonii3> I have 3 inputs on my computer, a mic jack on the front, a mic jack on the back, and a line in jack in the back. Ubuntu is only seeing 2, a right channel and a left channel for the front mic jack.  All jacks work fine under winoze, but in jack they don't. any ideas?
[01:56] <eamon> izinucs: I want to compile it though.
[01:56] <techhelper1> pfifo: make sense ?
[01:57] <izinucs> eamon: you're not getting it.. you could compile the kernel.. then every package individually if you want.. it's a lot of work and time.. why do it?
[01:57] <eamon> izinucs: to make it faster
[01:57] <eamon> ubuntu is too slow for me
[01:57] <techhelper1> eamon: there really isn't a speed difference
[01:57] <rcconf> hi
[01:58] <techhelper1> then look up gentoo eamon
[01:58] <fermulator> meLon: glad you got it to work :-)  I hope you don't experience "slowness" in web browsing DNS resolution, if you do, we'll have to revisit the the information in that thread
[01:58] <eamon> gentoo is fast when I caompile it myself
[01:58] <eamon> but I like ubuntu
[01:58] <izinucs> eamon: won't be by much.. if you really want to do something like that then there are other distros based in compilation of *everything*
[01:58] <rcconf> How do I change the default icon in gnome-terminal window?
[01:58] <meLon> I don't seem to be having any problems
[01:58] <pfifo> eamon, ubuntu isnt slow, its gnome, try xubuntu or something with less bling
[01:58] <techhelper1> i only see milliseconds shaved off by hand compiling
[01:58] <meLon> I use googdns fermulator :D
[01:58] <meLon> mmmmmm
[01:59] <Kamenu> i'm having problems with missing screen resolutions on Karmic Koala, can someone help me with this problem?
[01:59] <izinucs> meLon: you can also try opendns or dyndns.. but opendns claims to be even faster than google
[01:59] <izinucs> Kamenu: nvidia?
[01:59] <eamon> Kamenu: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:59] <meLon> I dont trust anybody other than google izinucs
[02:00] <techhelper1> opendns is faster then google
[02:00] <izinucs> meLon: too bad
[02:00] <meLon> esp with those types of records
[02:00] <Kamenu> using an Intel graphics card
[02:00] <eamon> Kamenu: add the res you want to that file and it'll work Kamenu
[02:00] <techhelper1> and opendns has more features then the avg site
[02:00] <pfifo> trust and google dont belong in the same sentance
[02:00] <zer0s> lol
[02:00] <izinucs> Kamenu: xrandr handles resolution.. if the resolution you need isn't currently present you can add it.. I'll have ubottu send you a link
[02:00] <Antichrist> hello
[02:00] <izinucs> !resolution > Kamenu
[02:01] <zer0s> pfifo, you could say that about just any corporation
[02:01] <eamon> !resolution
[02:01] <rcconf> how do I add a custom icon to gnome-terminal's TITLE bar?
[02:01] <aeon-ltd> techhelper1: some isps are faster though, esp. in differ countries but in the US this is almost 99% true
[02:01] <rcconf> need to know
[02:01] <pfifo> zer0s, I trust Verisign
[02:01] <izinucs> rcconf: is there one there already that you want to replace?
[02:02] <rcconf> izinucs: no title bar shows the default
[02:02] <izinucs> rcconf: but there is an icon there for the program that you want to use a custom icon for right?
[02:02] <eamon> Kamenu: that should say <<  sudo /etc/init.d/xdm restart >>  don't know what's wrong with ubottu
[02:02] <Jonii3> I have 3 inputs on my computer but only 1 is showing up under linux. all three work fine under windoze.  Does anyone have any ideas as to what i'm doing wrong?
[02:02] <rcconf> yes izinucs of course
[02:02] <rcconf> izinucs: but custom
[02:02] <eamon> Jonii3: what are the inputs....
[02:03] <m1ndvirus> What's a good SVN client?
[02:03] <rcconf> izinucs: a .png icon
[02:03] <techhelper1> ?dm stands for gem, kdm, xdm eamon
[02:03] <techhelper1> gdm*
[02:03] <pfifo> Jonii3, Do all 3 show up in alsa?
[02:03] <theholder> i just use bash svn
[02:03] <Kamenu> thankyou eamon
[02:03] <theholder> lol
[02:03] <izinucs> rcconf: ok.. point at the icon and right mouse click.... choose properties.. then click the icon in the new box and point the reference to whatever you want to use.
[02:03] <Jonii3> all 1/8 inch , one mic on front, one mic on the back, and one "line in" on the back
[02:03] <Jonii3> pfifo, how do I check?
[02:03] <m1ndvirus> theholder: I like nautilus integration.
[02:03] <dsnyders> rcconf, you could search for icons on your system.  Rename current icon to icon.old and copy your desired icon in place.
[02:04] <rcconf> izinucs: that's for the shortcut.. i want to change title bar icon
[02:04] <Jonii3> if i go to sound preferences/hardware it only shows one device
[02:04] <pfifo> Jonii3, run 'amixer' on the command line and check/pastebin its output
[02:04] <rcconf> dsnyders: hm but I just want it for a Profile in terminal
[02:04] <eamon> you can't pastebin alsamixer.....
[02:04] <izinucs> rcconf: ah.. now I get it.. sorry I don't know
[02:04] <rcconf> izinucs: :)
[02:04] <pfifo> eamon, 'amixer' not 'alsamixer'
[02:04] <eamon> Jonii3: run alsamixer
[02:05] <dsnyders> rcconf, Although I don't really understand what you're after.  None of my windows have icons in the title bar.  What theme are you using.
[02:05] <rcconf> it's alsamixer in terminal
[02:05] <izinucs> *going from my desktop w/ 2 23" screen to a laptop is almost painfull
[02:05] <rcconf> dsnyders: default.. Ambiance
[02:05] <pfifo> amixer is a simpler non interactive version of alsamixer
[02:05] <rcconf> ill take a printscreen to show you.
[02:05] <Jonii3> amixer output: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/586305/
[02:05] <pikus> co za asy
[02:06] <eamon> Jonii3: open alsamixer and you can do it with a gui
[02:06] <Jonii3> eamon: I did... but i'm confused
[02:06] <izinucs> Jonii3: what are you trying to do.. use the front mic? rear line in?
[02:06] <Jonii3> I would like to be able to use all 3 at once with ardour/jack
[02:07] <eamon> Jonii3: press the right arrow key to see if your line in is switched on
[02:07] <izinucs> Jonii3: ah.. this is a *jack* question.. sorry don't know
[02:07] <Jonii3> izinucs: but the input isn't showing up in ubuntu period
[02:08] <Jonii3> izinucs: it will be a jack question once ubuntu lets me use the input
[02:08] <izinucs> Jonii3: jack replaces pulseaudio if I remember correctly.. if it doesn't then pavucontrol might give you more options
[02:08] <m1ndvirus> What's a good SVN client?
[02:08] <eamon> Jonii3: does it appear in alsamixer if you press the right arrow key to see all the inputs
[02:08] <smw> m1ndvirus, I like ksvn
[02:08] <izinucs> Jonii3: I tried jack once and was totally confused on how to set it up..
[02:09] <pfifo> Jonii3, the kernel module seems to have it setup so you can only use the front or the rear at anyone time.
[02:09] <m1ndvirus> smw: Anything for GTK/GNOME?
[02:09] <Jonii3> in alsamixer i have Master, Speaker, PCM, empty space (shows up as Line Jack mode in upper left) and Mic jack mode with no volume
[02:09] <induz> hello guys download Writerstool for lookup function on OOffice...just insatleed it
[02:09] <induz> its a bit tricky to install as not much manuals
[02:09] <Jonii3> pfifo:  are you serious? well back to windows then i suppose
[02:09] <smw> m1ndvirus, no idea. I normally use the cli to tell you the truth
[02:09] <induz> bye for bnow
[02:09] <induz> hope it helps
[02:10] <eamon> Jonii3: yeah try turning on your line in and mic
[02:10] <Jonii3> eamon:  how would i go about doing that?
[02:11] <eamon> press the m key to unmute and the up key to increase volume. it's just like windows
[02:11] <smw> m1ndvirus, I found this on google: http://www.doknowevil.net/2009/04/28/nautilussvn-finally-an-svn-gui-for-linux-that-doesnt-totally-suck/
[02:11] <rcconf> is there a way to customize the icon of gnome terminal?
[02:11] <Jonii3> eamon: i pressed m and up and down swaps between line in and mic in
[02:11] <Jonii3> the mic jack mode does the same thing
[02:12] <Jonii3> ????
[02:12] <rcconf> http://i55.tinypic.com/2qv3y49.png
[02:12] <Jonii3> i was on playback hang on
[02:12] <rcconf> I want to customize that icon http://i55.tinypic.com/2qv3y49.png
[02:13] <izinucs> Jonii3: typically even on windows if you have front mic and rear mic plugged in you can only use one.. and with both plugged in it's the front
[02:13] <eamon> Jonii3: type << man alsamixer >> in terminal
[02:13] <Jonii3> eamon: I know have input source and input source 1 and i can swap between Front mic, mic, and line in
[02:13] <Jonii3> ok
[02:13] <spirals> m1ndvirus, yeah NautilusSVN is the equivalent to TortoiseSVN
[02:13] <pfifo> rcconf, custom launcher and your own icon should get you what you want
[02:13] <spirals> m1ndvirus, or RabbitVCS as they're calling it now
[02:14] <spirals> http://code.google.com/p/nautilussvn/
[02:14] <Jonii3> izinucs: I know, I was hoping to get away from that limitation -.-
[02:14] <dsnyders> rcconf, I only see maximize, minimize, close, and the window menu button.  No icons.
[02:14] <rcconf> pfifo: i already have the custom icon in shortcut/launcher..
[02:15] <[thor]> Hello there, i am using ubuntu 10.10, and i would like to create a custom launcher in my games menu. I wish to launch a file called 'brogue' which is, according to ' file brogue ' --> brogue: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, not stripped.  Now, when i create a new launcher, and point it to the brogue file, nothing happens. When i wish to r
[02:15] <[thor]> un it from a command line, i need to type ' ./brogue ' while i am in the proper folder. tl;dr::: How do i create a launcher in the Applications -> Games menu that launches ./brogue from the folder ~/Demos/brogue1.3/ ?
[02:15] <rcconf> pfifo: i want to change the icon in the window bar
[02:15] <izinucs> Jonii3: that might be a motherboard limitation.. if the sound is on the motherboard.. now if you had a separate pci audio card that allowed that then.... :)
[02:15] <Jonii3> izinucs: so in other words I need more money.... ugh
[02:16] <spirals> [thor] Select "Application in terminal" in the Launcher Properties > Type menu.
[02:16] <[thor]> spirals doesn't work either
[02:16] <spirals> [thor], then put the full path to brogue in the Command field
[02:17] <izinucs> Jonii3: I just tossed 5 older audio cards.. check craigslist, ebay etc.. you're bound to come up with something for a couple of bucks.. if you're in the US that is....
[02:17] <Jasonn> Anyone know of a phproxy alternative?
[02:17] <rcconf> Jasonn: again? :P
[02:17] <pfifo> rcconf, ohh, im not sure if thats possible. if no one here can answer the try asking in #gnome irc.gnome.org
[02:17] <rcconf> pfifo: k ill try
[02:17] <Jasonn> rcconf: Nah, last time i wanted to know how to use Squid :)
[02:17] <rcconf> oh
[02:18] <spirals> [thor], if the app is fragile enough to require being in its directory when launched, you need to make a launcher script that handles that (cd ~/Demos/brogue1.3/ && ./brogue) and use the Launcher to run that script
[02:18] <Jasonn> rcconf: I have tried glype, cgiproxy, and another one (forgot the name) But is there a program that could work for this
[02:18] <Jasonn> ??
[02:18] <rcconf> Jasonn: I dont know how to help you on that sorry
[02:18] <Jasonn> rcconf: Thanks anyways :)

[02:21] <bob__> ummmmm .... the revolving door is very drafty ... lol

[02:22] <earthling_> !themes
[02:22] <eamon> brightspark: you may want to google your wireless card model number and see if there are any kown problems with the ubuntu drivers
[02:23] <[thor]> spirals: thanks for the idea.. it's working fine now :D
[02:23] <brightspark> eamon: Thanks. Is there a command to print the model number?
[02:23] <[thor]> i don't get why i couldn't run it directly though..
[02:23] <eamon> lspci | grep eth
[02:23] <eamon> could do it idno
[02:24] <ThatGuyOverThere> Anybody? Need help editing /etc/rc.local

[02:25] <ThatGuyOverThere> eamon: I know that. I mean I tried adding commands in there and it didn't work.
[02:25] <pfifo> ThatGuyOverThere, chmod 0755, it needs to be executable

[02:26] <bmk> I have a question regarding grub, I have two hard drives installed, one I had previously installed KUBUNTU on, and then today I installed the new hard drive and installed ubuntu 10.10 on it.  I want to reformat the other hard drive to just use as storage space, but I am not sure if the grub menu is on that hard drive, or on the new hard drive and I dont want to reformat the old hard drive and screw something up
[02:27] <eamon> bmk: grub is in your MBR
[02:27] <dsnyders> bmk, first things first.  Do you have a livecd
[02:27] <pfifo> bmk, disconnect the old drive and see what happens
[02:27] <bmk> I have the livecd, yes.  I think I should try that though, disconnecting the old drive and see what happens... that makes sense
[02:28] <Goliath> hey does ubuntu/kubuntu 10.10 livedvd contain grub1 (i want to use grub-install command)?
[02:28] <eamon> no just reformat it. It's in the master boot record which wont be formatted
[02:28] <eamon> bmk: no if you disconnect you won't be able to access the MBR
[02:28] <eamon> just reformat it
[02:28] <dsnyders> bmk, you may need to check in your bios as to which drive the machine boots from.
[02:28] <Polarina> Are there any logs on connection attempts made to me by the Remote Desktop tool?
[02:29] <bmk> I will still have the hard drive connected with Ubuntu 10.10 installed, just not the old hard drive with kubuntu on it
[02:29] <ThatGuyOverThere> eamon: So what do I need to do to etc/rc.local?
[02:29] <eamon> just reformat it dude, grub is on the MBR and that won't be formatted
[02:29] <Opiniee> Could someone please help learn how to update/upgrade his/her Clamav virus engine? It's apparently outdated, but there doesn't seem to be documentation for updating it.
[02:29] <Opiniee> *me
[02:30] <pfifo> ThatGuyOverThere, add the commands you want to be executed to the script, ensure the script is executable, and reboot
[02:30] <Goliath>  hey does ubuntu/kubuntu 10.10 livedvd contain grub1 (i want to use grub-install command)?
[02:30] <eamon> ThatGuyOverThere: make sure you're adding them to the right place in the file
[02:30] <pfifo> Goliath, no
[02:30] <ThatGuyOverThere> eamon: I don't know where the right place is.
[02:31] <ThatGuyOverThere> eamon: Right now all that's in there is a bunch of commented-out lines with an explanation of rc.local in them and a line that says "exit 0"

[02:32] <hiexpo> eamon, been there done that and they don't
[02:32] <pfifo> mu, possibly try running 'sudo apt-get update'
[02:32] <spirals> [thor], great!
[02:33] <mu> pfifo: That was the command I used to spawn those errors
[02:33] <spirals> [thor], did you end up having to do the launcher script?
[02:33] <spirals> or just the full path in launcher
[02:34] <pfifo> ThatGuyOverThere, if these commands dont return right awaym youll need to add a '&' at the end to make them go into the background, and 'exit 0' makes the script end, so if the commands are after that, their not getting run.
[02:34] <rww> mu: You're getting those errors because Intrepid/8.10 reached end of life status in April 2010 and thus its repositories have been removed from the mirror system. See the message ubottu's about to give you.
[02:34] <rww> !eol | mu
[02:35] <coz_> end of like,,, i still have the ubuntu 3.05 disk here :)

[02:35] <coz_> rather 4.05
[02:35] <coz_> let me try that again ,, end of life,,, i still have the 4.05  here :)
[02:35] <rww> mu: I've done distribution upgrades on a remote VPS, but it might be a good idea to check with your provider for their recommendation.
[02:35] <mu> Yeah, I'm doing that now. Thanks.
[02:36] <rww> coz_: perhaps you mean 4.10 or 5.04?
[02:36] <coz_> rww,  ah yes  I do indeed...
[02:36] <coz_> :)
[02:37] <Opiniee> Does anyone know how to update Clamav's virus engine?

[02:37] <coz_> Opiniee,   well generally  a sugo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade should do it as I recall but let me check I have it installed
[02:37] <FransWillem> Hi, I just installed MythBuntu on a system with a Radeon 9800 Pro, and now just after the splash screen the screen goes and stays black. SSH works, but I can't seem to get it to show anything. During the installation I was given the choice between open source and AMD drivers where I picked the AMd drivers.
[02:37] <FransWillem> Would anyone be able to help me troubleshoot this from the command line ?
[02:38] <rcconf> Opiniee: wait ..
[02:38] <smw> FransWillem, is mythbuntu still under development?
[02:38] <Opiniee> rcconf: ok
[02:38] <edbian> FransWillem: heck yes.  Are you booted into the system right now?
[02:38] <coz_> Opiniee,   also under  Advanced in the gui of clamav  there is a tick box to update definitions on start up
[02:38] <Opiniee> coz_: thanks
[02:38] <FransWillem> edbian: Yes, and I am able to log in through SSH
[02:38] <FransWillem> smw: It had a download link for 10.10, so I suppose it is
[02:38] <rcconf> Opiniee: open a terminal and type this to add PPA: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-clamav/ppa
[02:39] <Opiniee> coz_: but it doesn't update the virus engine, does it?
[02:39] <edbian> FransWillem: What happens does it say if you type this: sudo lsmod | grep fglrx    ?
[02:39] <Opiniee> rrconf: ok
[02:39] <coz_> Opiniee,  yes it should
[02:39] <msponge> I installed Ubuntu on a Lenovo laptop that dual boots windows and has a system recovery partition. I need to access to system recovery partition but i'm not sure how to do it with grub (F11 no longer works at boot up). I can root the drive, but can't find the kernel for boot to work. Can someone help?
[02:39] <coz_> Opiniee,  do you have clamtk I think it is installed,,,the front end?
[02:39] <FransWillem> edbian: Nothing. fglrx wasn't even installed at first, but dmesg seems to indicate it's loading a 'radeon' driver instead :/
[02:39] <rcconf> Opiniee: that PPA is to update the antivirus not the GUI... if you wantto update GUI go to clamatk website download and upgrade manually using the .deb file
[02:39] <rcconf> :)
[02:40] <pfifo> msponge, you need to use chainloader, probbally
[02:40] <edbian> FransWillem: radeon is the opensource driver.  fglrx is the "AMD" proprietary driver.  Can you pastebin dmesg for me?
[02:40] <Opiniee> coz_: yes, I have clamtk, and it should get definitions when started. The virus engine seems to be outdated still
[02:40] <coz_> Opiniee,  o0 mm let me check here again hold on
[02:40] <Opiniee> rrconf: no, I do want the virus engine, so I believe you are on the right track
[02:41] <coz_> Opiniee,  what is the version ofthe antivirus engine there?

[02:43] <coz_> Opiniee,  no just the gui

[02:43] <rcconf> really easy

[02:45] <edbian> FransWillem: Ah yes.  I forgot about the ssh issue.  Hang on
[02:45] <pfifo> msponge, I have no idea then, those proprietary systems are so proprietary. You can try asking in #grub. but honestly, I would pirate a windows CD and install the way I expect things to work.
[02:45] <Opiniee> rcconf: but clamtk does show the clamav's virus engine, does it not? that's what it uses?
[02:45] <rcconf> Opiniee: clamtk is just the GUI for clamav :)

[02:47] <rcconf> then*
[02:48] <edbian> FransWillem: sudo apt-get install radeon

[02:48] <truepurple> I was given a command to use before, but it didn't work
[02:48] <edbian> FransWillem: tell me what it says.  Already newest version, installing, blah blah
[02:48] <Opiniee> coz_: I think it should then show you, whether the virus engine is up-to-date or not
[02:48] <pfifo> b1lly, vsftpd has many config options, not as much as apache, seems like you just need to read the man vsftpd.conf page
[02:48] <coz_> Opiniee,  yes it is ticked ,, let me try t his ppa hold on
[02:48] <FransWillem> edbian: E: Unable to locate package radeon
[02:48] <Opiniee> coz_: ok
[02:48] <edbian> FransWillem: dmesg says it loads the radeon module.  the xorg log shows it failing to load fglrx
[02:48] <rcconf> the PPA will solve the problem.
[02:49] <edbian> FransWillem: oh, hang on
[02:49] <ActionParsnip> Opiniee: or just run:  sudo freshclam

[02:49] <FransWillem> edbian: apt-cache search radeon

[02:49] <FransWillem> edbian: Already latest version, though

[02:50] <edbian> FransWillem: sudo apt-get purge fglrx  (or whatever xserver-xorg-nonsense it might be)
[02:50] <Opiniee> ActionParsnip: it gives an error message
[02:50] <ActionParsnip> Opiniee: what's the error?
[02:51] <coz_> Opiniee,  what I can tell you about clamav, from my experience from the past..dont run it on a windows  partition/disk,, unless you are sure of what it wants to remove,, it can render windows unbootable :)

[02:52] <FransWillem> edbian: Removed, but sudo stop gdm; sudo start gdm didn't do anything useful. Now doing a full shutdown -r now. Funny thing is that the screen just turned on for the shutdown animation :/
[02:52] <coz_> ah oh error with that ppa...dpkg: unable to access dpkg status area: Read-only file system

[02:53] <edbian> FransWillem: I'm not sure if it works over ssh.
[02:53] <rcconf> coz_: lol
[02:53] <ActionParsnip> Opiniee: same here,weird
[02:53] <pfifo> edbian, yeah it will
[02:53] <FransWillem> edbian: either way, full restart didn't work either, still the same problem, screen turns off after the splash/boot animation :/
[02:53] <edbian> FransWillem: restarting is your best bet anyway.  video card drivers are no easily removed / replaced without a reboot
[02:53] <edbian> pfifo: Really?  cool
[02:54] <edbian> FransWillem: Can I see the /var/log/Xorg.0.log again?
[02:54] <Opiniee> ActionParsnip: I did neglect to mention that clamscan is runnning.. Could that be the cause?
[02:54] <ActionParsnip> FransWillem: run nautilus and it may work, or you can simply execute the app you want to run
[02:54] <edbian> FransWillem: and dmesg while you're at it
[02:54] <ActionParsnip> Opiniee: aaaaah sounds likely
[02:54] <edbian> ActionParsnip: The monitor is blank on boot up.  He's ssh'd in to do work.
[02:54] <pfifo> edbian, it will restart the service, of course unless you can see the monitor, theres no wayy to tell what its showing over ssh (unless you use cli todo a screencap or something)
[02:54] <Opiniee> ActionParsnip: I'll try again after it's finished..
[02:54] <Goliath> hey i have ubuntu 10.10 livecd, can i use it for the grub-install command so i can install grub1 to my system?
[02:54] <FransWillem> edbian: dmesg http://pastebin.com/igsiHHv6
[02:55] <edbian> pfifo: ah-ha
[02:55] <ActionParsnip> edbian: surely the nomodeset option is good to use if its a black screen at boot
[02:55] <FransWillem> edbian: Xorg.0.log http://pastebin.com/znXs9G4t
[02:55] <snoopy> Hello All
[02:55] <pfifo> hello
[02:55] <Opiniee> Thanks for helping ActionParsnip, coz_ and rrconf!
[02:56] <FransWillem> ActionParsnip: just gets me "Error: no display specified"
[02:56] <ruffleS> Does anyone here use OpenDNS ? I need help with it
[02:56] <ActionParsnip> Opiniee: np man
[02:56] <edbian> FransWillem: same exact error in Xorg.0.log.  Try settings nomodeset kernel option
[02:56] <snoopy> not any more
[02:56] <FransWillem> edbian: Yup, just lost me there. How ?
[02:57] <Opiniee> Thanks for helping rcconf! Said that already, but misspelled your name.. ;-)
[02:57] <snoopy> What is wrong with OpenDNS ?
[02:57] <pfifo> snoopy, there not too keen on hellos
[02:57] <edbian> FransWillem: You see a grub menu when you boot?
[02:57] <snoopy> pfifo:  why not?
[02:57] <FransWillem> Nope, I think it's set to not wait and just boot
[02:57] <pfifo> !hello | snoopy
[02:57] <pfifo> !hi
[02:58] <edbian> FransWillem: press shift fanatically while it boots after post but before Ubuntu stuff.  You should get to the grub menu
[02:58] <ruffleS> snoopy, i have a question about it.. do i have to register in order to be able to use its dns servers?
[02:58] <pfifo> could of swore there was a bot command... anyway cause its considered spam if everyone just starts helloing to the world
[02:58] <Goliath> how can i install grub1 from terminal?
[02:58] <Broseph> so I installed ubuntu-desktop on a server, what's the best way to remove it without a trace? I did sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop but it seems like there's a lot of stuff leftover still ..given that about 60 kb were freed
[02:58] <MarchHair> My Thunderbird generating a bus error on every run. (Ubuntu 10.10) suggestions? (sorry for repost---been a few minutes)
[02:58] <FransWillem> edbian: Where should I add the nomodeset bit ? after the initrd line ?
[02:59] <ActionParsnip> Goliath: i believe the package is called grub-legacy
[02:59] <FransWillem> edbian: Or after the linux /boot/.... quit splash line ?
[02:59] <edbian> FransWillem:  on the 'linux'
[02:59] <edbian> FransWillem: on the 'linux' line at the end
[02:59] <Goliath> ActionParsnip does grub-install command is included in the livecd?
[02:59] <edbian> FransWillem: yes that line, also remove quiet and splash.  Maybe we'll see some errors during boot time
[02:59] <ActionParsnip> Broseph: sudo apt-get --purge remove xorg; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove
[02:59] <pfifo> Goliath, yes
[02:59] <Goliath> k thanks
[02:59] <edbian> FransWillem: i must complement you that you are a pleasure to work with.
[02:59] <ActionParsnip> Goliath: I'll say yes, but I am not sure
[03:00] <FransWillem> edbian: Thanks, same to you ;)
[03:00] <Goliath> ActionParsnip and it installs grub1 if i have it or grub2 if i have that? or always grub1?
[03:00] <quiescens> i don't think its so much "don't say hello" as, don't neccesarily expect a reply and to just ask your question if that's what you're here for
[03:00] <FransWillem> edbian: Was too late to remove the quiet/splash bit, but it does respond to ctrl+alt+f1 now, lemme try starting gdm from the command line
[03:00] <edbian> FransWillem: excellent.  Seems like we just fixed it
[03:01] <ActionParsnip> Goliath: not done it personally bt I'd do it in a live cd environment
[03:01] <FransWillem> edbian: Well, not really, ctrl+alt+f7 (which used to give the GUI) only shows a blinking _ :(
[03:01] <truepurple> With smuxi, it asks for a "hostname", what is it looking for?
[03:01] <Broseph> ActionParsnip: Thanks, looks like I freed another 13 mb. Is that all or would there be additional packages to take out?
[03:01] <ActionParsnip> Goliath: i'd remove grub2,boot to livecd then install grub
[03:01] <r3m> Hi, I have a cdrom disk in my cdrom and mounted. I tried to sudo dd if=/dev/cdrom of=game.iso but it doenst found /dev/cdrom.. where is it
[03:01] <r3m> its a cdrom drive only
[03:01] <FransWillem> edbian: and sudo gdm just spits out that it reached a maximum number of X errors
[03:02] <edbian> FransWillem: So the machine boots to what if you don't press ctrl + alt + F1  ?
[03:02] <FransWillem> edbian: Just boots to the blinking _
[03:02] <ActionParsnip> Broseph: if you uninstall libgnome*    it should rip the rest out
[03:02] <FransWillem> edbian: But at least the screen stays on this time :/
[03:02] <Seven_Six_Two> r3m, you might not have that link. try     ls -l /dev | grep sr
[03:02] <edbian> FransWillem: but you can switch to tty1.  What do you get from lsmod | grep radeon
[03:02] <ActionParsnip> r3m: try /dev/sr0
[03:02] <edbian> FransWillem: that is, sudo lsmod | grep radeon
[03:03] <r3m> thanks
[03:03] <Broseph> ActionParnsip: 61 packages being lopped off, nice :)
[03:03] <meLon> I have to mount points /mnt/drivea/ & /mnt/driveb/.  They both contain similar content.  Is there any way that I can create a link of some sort that will combine the two.  Kind of like a raid, but much more simplified.  I do *not* need the link to be writeable, just readable.
[03:03] <meLon> two*
[03:03] <r3m> it works thanks Secluded1 and ActionParsnip
[03:03] <FransWillem> edbian: sudo lsmod | grep radeon => http://pastebin.com/3hc59Sj3
[03:03] <ActionParsnip> Broseph: then run: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove   and it should kill the rest
[03:03] <pbear> when I run the screen command, then use ps aux to find it, why is there a screen and a SCREEN as the username of the process's owner? why are there two and what's the difference?
[03:03] <truepurple> With smuxi, it asks for a "hostname", what is it looking for?
[03:04] <r3m> thanks Seven_Six_Two and ActionParsnip
[03:04] <Lancelot> !ff4
[03:04] <Seven_Six_Two> r3m, no
[03:04] <ActionParsnip> r3m: np bro
[03:04] <edbian> FransWillem: great, the radeon driver is running then.  What about sudo lsmod | grep fglrx  (just to be sure).  No need to pastebin.  Just tell me if it displays something or not.
[03:04] <Seven_Six_Two> r3m, sorry. np
[03:04] <haveacigaro> hey guys
[03:04] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, what's smuxi
[03:04] <FransWillem> edbian: Nothing, which is probably good :
[03:04] <Broseph> ActionParsnip: Awesome, thanks!
[03:04] <edbian> FransWillem: That's very good.
[03:04] <truepurple> a IRC client
[03:05] <edbian> FransWillem: What if you sudo gdm on tty1 again?
[03:05] <haveacigaro> i know this isnt an ubuntu question, but im guessing you are more knowlegeable than the the people in #apple
[03:05] <FransWillem> edbian: Failed to acquire org.gnome.DisplayManager; Could not acquire name; bailing out
[03:05] <truepurple> Seven_Six_Two: smuxi is a IRC client for ubuntu/linux
[03:05] <ActionParsnip> haveacigaro: this is ubuntu support only
[03:06] <edbian> FransWillem: Can you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log again?
[03:06] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, when does it ask for that? when you try to connect?  try   irc.freenode.net
[03:06] <FransWillem> edbian: If I try sudo stop gdm first, it tells me it reached a maximum of X display failures
[03:06] <meLon> Lancelot, by 'unofficial' do you mean that the repo is owned by neither Ubuntu NOR Mozilla?
[03:06] <FransWillem> edbian: Xorg.0.log indicates it's trying to load fglrx again
[03:06] <FransWillem> edbian: Gimme a min to pastebin it
[03:06] <edbian> FransWillem: ok.  That's vague so not very helpful :/   The details are welcome though!
[03:06] <edbian> FransWillem: strange
[03:06] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, or  irc.freenode.net/8001
[03:06] <edbian> join #radeon with me
[03:06] <Lancelot> meLon, I'm not actually sure to be honest. I didn't write that. I think by unofficial it meant not owned by canonical
[03:07] <haveacigaro> :( well, i cant mount a partition, which cannot be fixed in first aid. I was wondering if this sounds like a MBR type issue (i realise that it boots using efi)
[03:07] <truepurple> Seven_Six_Two: That is a separate catagory under network
[03:07] <meLon> Cool.  I thought it was an official Mozilla repo.  If not, I need to remove it.  lol
[03:07] <haveacigaro> if you could just point me in the right direction...
[03:07] <edbian> FransWillem: btw, I think that the 'radeon' references in dmesg are referring to the card name not the module
[03:07] <Lancelot> meLon, I said it didn't belong to canonical
[03:07] <Frozt> Greetings to all
[03:07] <Lancelot> meLon, I'm sure it is a mozilla repo, look at the URL
[03:07] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, it might be asking for your hostname then. If you don't use them, just put a fake hostname
[03:07] <ActionParsnip> meLon: there is the daily ppa, the stable ppa will more than likely be the oneincorporated into the official repo
[03:07] <meLon> That's what I was trying to clarify Lancelot.  Sorry
[03:07] <FransWillem> edbian: Xorg.0.log at http://pastebin.com/3wfs5UCs if you still need it
[03:08] <edbian> FransWillem: reading
[03:08] <Sean93> I just installed ubuntu in a virtual machine. I then used bastille. now i get permission denied when i try to login as the only user account. how do i login as root a the console if i never set a root password?
[03:08] <FransWillem> edbian: dmesg | grep radeon has become a lot less btw :/
[03:08] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, or put whatever you  have for your machine listed in      /etc/hosts
[03:08]  * rcconf loves Ubuntu
[03:08] <rww> Lancelot, meLon: That PPA is maintained by Ubuntu's Mozilla packaging team, which is not part of Canonical or Mozilla. PPAs in general are not officially supported.
[03:08] <truepurple> Seven_Six_Two: What are host names?
[03:08] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, sorry, that's    /etc/hostname
[03:08] <meLon> ty rww
[03:08] <edbian> FransWillem: I see.  join #radeon
[03:08] <rcconf> rww: it's a PPA from a trusted source enough said
[03:09] <rww> rcconf: I personally would trust them, yes.
[03:09] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, they are like domain names. you can name all of the machines on your network so that you don't have to remember the ip addresses
[03:09] <Frozt> So, a simple question. I'd like to dual boot along side Win7 on my laptop. I'm not sure which version to get, the desktop or the netbook. Any suggestions?
[03:10] <rww> Frozt: either is fine. They're just different user interfaces; they have the same underlying system.
[03:10] <rcconf> Frozt: laptop ofc
[03:10] <Frozt> ofc?
[03:10] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, I run a webserver (mydomainname.com) and my desktop's hostname is mydesktop.mydomainname.com, my laptop is  mylaptop.mydomainname.com
[03:10] <rcconf> of course
[03:10] <rcconf> sorry
[03:10] <trey> ofc = of course, frozt
[03:10] <rww> Frozt: if you don't have a particular preference either way, I'd go with Desktop.
[03:11] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, you can name the machines by putting an entry for each other machine in /etc/hosts
[03:11] <Frozt> the reason I ask is because I thought I read something about the netbook having touch response, but my laptop doesn't support touch
[03:11] <Sean93> how do i login as root at the console if i didnt set a root password?
[03:11] <trey> truepurple, you should probably read a basic intro to TCP/IP, DNS, and/or Linux book if you are asking that
[03:11] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, just make sure you use the names that each machine has for itself in /etc/hostname
[03:11] <rww> Frozt: Netbook edition works fine with normal input devices (keyboard, mouse, trackpad, whatever)
[03:11] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, :)  what trey said!
[03:11] <rww> Sean93: you don't. Use sudo instead.
[03:11] <rww> !sudo
[03:12] <ActionParsnip> Sean93: just run:  sudo -i
[03:12] <Lancelot> rww, can you help me get ff4 running in karmic?
[03:12] <Logan_> !ff4 | Lancelot
[03:12] <Sean93> rww i can't login on the user account
[03:12] <ActionParsnip> Sean93: when you are done, type:   exit
[03:12] <Lancelot> Logan_, I've seen that. I'm having issues
[03:12] <rww> Lancelot: probably not. The only thing I know about it is that there's a PPA for it; I don't use it myself.
[03:12] <rww> !password | Sean93
[03:13] <Sean93> rww, i havnt forgot my password, bastille seems to have locked me out, i get permission denied
[03:13] <rww> Sean93: although if you mucked things up to the point that it won't let you log in with a valid password, booting into rescue mode (hold down shift at boot and select the relevant option) and getting to a root console from there is probably your best bet.
[03:13] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, I recommend buying "Linux Administrators Handbook"(It's a pink cover), and/or "Linux in a Nutshell"
[03:14] <Frozt> thanks rww and rcconf
[03:15] <ovy> hi, where from can i download a live cd with a working ubuntu 11.04?
[03:15] <rcconf> Frozt: np
[03:15] <rcconf> ovy: from ubuntu.com i think
[03:15] <ActionParsnip> ovy: ask in #ubuntu+1
[03:15] <wauf> Hi, can someone point me out to a guide where I can learn how to put Ubuntu, windows 7 and windowsXP  on a flash drive to use as an installer?
[03:15] <rww> ovy: please don't crosspost to multiple channels. #ubuntu+1 is the right place for that question, wait patiently there.
[03:15] <ovy> ActionParsnip, i asked there but noone anwered
[03:15] <Logan_> "wait patiently there."
[03:15] <ActionParsnip> ovy: natty is offtopic here
[03:15] <rcconf> ovy: try ##linux
[03:16] <JuNiOx> hello guys, I tried installing php5-ffmpeg but the ffmpeg.so file is created under "/usr/lib/php5/20090626/" while the others extension are under "/usr/lib/php5/20060613" so it doesnt work.  How can I have it created accordingly?
[03:16] <truepurple> Seven_Six_Two: What IRC client for ubuntu would you recommend?
[03:16] <ActionParsnip> !irc
[03:17] <Seven_Six_Two> truepurple, purists will scream irssi, but I use xchat
[03:17] <ActionParsnip> truepurple: pidgin here
[03:17] <truepurple> Do all three use that red highlighting when people say your name?
[03:18] <trey> Since you're in gui, definitely woul dsuggest xchat truepurple
[03:18] <rww> truepurple: xchat does. irssi highlights the nickname part of the message in yellow by default (though I have it set to highlight with a red background personally), pidgin does something that I forget.
[03:19] <trey> I don't know fo a client that doesn't notify you in some way when your name is mentioned
[03:19] <truepurple> irssi does this whether your name is there or not?
[03:19] <trey> or have a PM
[03:19] <truepurple> smuxi doesn't seem to
[03:19] <rcconf> irssi is CLI xchat GUI. make ur choice
[03:19] <PsyForce> trey: empathy doesn't :(
[03:19] <PsyForce> haha
[03:20] <trey> haha, nice. Learn something new every day :P
[03:20] <truepurple> What is CLI?
[03:20] <trey> command lijne interface
[03:21] <rcconf> truepurple: terminal stuff ;)
[03:21] <trey> seriously... pick up Linux for Dummies, it will answer your questions better, and more passive than we could
[03:21] <PsyForce> quick(?) question: how secure would an ubuntu machine be if stolen?
[03:22] <PsyForce> I'm guessing pretty secure, but just curious as my laptop was just stolen
[03:22] <tucemiux> PsyForce, is your home directory encrypted?
[03:22] <PsyForce> no
[03:22] <trey> Sorry to say, not very psyforce, if someone had half a brain
[03:22] <rww> PsyForce: Just like any other OS, if you don't use encryption, then an attacker with physical access can read the whole hard disk.
[03:22] <truepurple> Noone knows anything about smuxi?
[03:22] <pfifo> PsyForce, they can access all files as root now
[03:22] <tucemiux> PsyForce,  youre screwed but I doubt the thief would take the time to recover any from your laptop
[03:23] <PsyForce> yeah, especially since I'm in China...I think just finding that it doesn't have windows on it will be daunting
[03:23] <trey> This is true, generally laptop thieves aren't the brightest.
[03:23] <Seven_Six_Two> PsyForce, did you encrypt partitions when you installed?
[03:24] <PsyForce> though maybe I should encrypt my home directory on the new machine...?
[03:24] <trey> lol, yes psyforce
[03:24] <PsyForce> no, just standard install
[03:24] <PsyForce> does encryption have any effect on performance?
[03:24] <MarchHair> Hey folks, I really need some help debugging a Thunderbird crash (bus error).
[03:24] <pfifo> I steal laptops and Im very linux savy
[03:24] <rww> PsyForce: yes, it increases CPU usage
[03:24] <Guest80327> I cannot extend my desktop to a second monitor. I was using 10.4, then upgraded to 10.10, but the problem didn't go away. I'm on a ibm thinkpad t42 laptop and my graphics card :VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10] ...what do I do? I can mirror the image just fine, but when i uncheck that option, the image on the minotor implies that the graphics card crashed, then i have to do ctr-alt-back
[03:24] <Guest80327> space. im a newbie.
[03:24] <tucemiux> PsyForce, nowadays I typically encrypt my home directory and have another data that will hold files that dont have sensitive data like passwords or my hilton videos
[03:25] <tucemiux> PsyForce, i meant to say i have another **partition*** that holds files...
[03:26] <PsyForce> hmm, so what are options if I've already done a standard install on the new machine?
[03:26] <Opiniee> rww: does it increase CPU usage very dramatically?
[03:26] <PsyForce> can I still encrypt? would that help?
[03:26] <trey> Psyforce, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedHome
[03:26] <tucemiux> PsyForce, you can still encrypt but the easiest thing would be to just reinstall unless you have a lot of data on it
[03:27] <Opiniee> How difficult is it to recover a encrypted file system? If you have backups that is
[03:27] <rww> Opiniee: depends on how much reading and writing you're doing. Probably not for normal users.
[03:27] <kriume> how can i change my username in ubuntu 10.10???
[03:27] <Opiniee> rww: it's possible to get rid of the encryption, if it does, isn't it?
[03:27] <rww> Opiniee: probably, but I've never done it
[03:27] <Opiniee> rww: ok
[03:28] <kriume> how can i change my username in ubuntu 10.10???
[03:28] <snake_> is there a matrix screensaver that doesn't do fancy flips and turns (and zooms and pans, and other sorts of random nonsense)
[03:28] <PsyForce> trey: btw, just noticed empathy does have notifications if my name is typed cap-sensitively
[03:29] <Guest80327> is there any way i can extend my desktop to a second monitor on 10.10?
[03:30] <trey> PsyForce, self own
[03:30] <Opiniee> Guest80327: it is, if you have a port for an extra monitor as I have two monitors right now, but someone else will surely come up with better instructions that I would
[03:30] <snake_> Guest80327, System > prenferences > monitor should be what you're looking for.
[03:30] <PsyForce> hehe, I guess no one has bothered to get the caps right before
[03:30] <kriume> how can i change my username in ubuntu 10.10???
[03:30] <Seven_Six_Two> How long should I let a pot roast sit for after cooking? I use 10.10
[03:31] <Sean93> why would i not be able to login as a user after using bastille?
[03:31] <MarchHair> Hey folks, I really need some help debugging a Thunderbird crash (bus error).
[03:31] <trey> kriume, please use the ubuntu documentation. God put it there for a reason.
[03:32] <Frozt> speaking of the documentation, and I hate to come back with more questions, but I'd rather be safe than sorry
[03:32] <Guest80327> MSG <snake> <yeah, the only problem is though, when i use that interface, my gwindow crashes :/ don't know how to get around the problem>
[03:32] <Seven_Six_Two> kriume, kriume create a new user with a new home, and move your files. make sure you don't change the owners inadvertently
[03:32] <b1lly> how do i search for a folder or file
[03:32] <b1lly> in ubuntu cmd line
[03:33] <Frozt> I noticed there was a specific install for hp machines. Seeing as my laptop is made by hp, again, I worry that a standard install might mess something up
[03:34] <Guest80327> MSG <Guest80327> <bla>
[03:34] <Seven_Six_Two> b1lly, i use slocate.  you first do sudo updatedb   then use locate     update makes a database for fast searches. (it doesn't look over your whole disk every time)
[03:34] <rww> Guest80327: perhaps you're looking for /msg
[03:34] <Seven_Six_Two> b1lly, I don't know if it's installed by default.
[03:35] <trey> Frozt, anytime something breaks it's a learning experience. You can always try a standard install and see what happens
[03:36] <Frozt> trey, I've been learning alot in regards to the android system lately, however, my ventures with nix has always been pleasant. But I've always done my homework and asked around before leaping
[03:36] <b1lly> im trying to copy directorys, sudo cp /home/billy/Aptana\ Studio\ 3\ Workspace/westechsolutions/web/gelberg/ /var/www/homeskoold
[03:36] <b1lly> is that wrong?
[03:36] <JuNiOx>  I tried installing php5-ffmpeg but the ffmpeg.so file is created under "/usr/lib/php5/20090626/" while the others extension are under "/usr/lib/php5/20060613" so it doesnt work.  How can I have it created accordingly?
[03:36] <b1lly> im trying to move the gelberg folder into the homeskoold folder
[03:36] <earthling_> !ff4
[03:36] <b1lly> JuNiOx: whats the diff between isntalling ffmpeg and php5-ffmpeg
[03:37] <trey> Frozt the good thing about a fresh install is, you can always just wipe it.  IMO you learn a lot more by doing, but that's just my preference
[03:37] <Seven_Six_Two> b1lly, if there are subdirectories off web/gelberg  you'll need the switch for recursive.   man cp

[03:38] <odst0016> does anyone know off the top of their head exactly how big the gnome 3 shell for ubuntu 10.10 is
[03:38] <JuNiOx> b1lly: interesting, so when "configuring" it you set any particular parameter to have the module created either?

[03:40] <b1lly> Seven_Six_Two: I need recursive
[03:40] <PsyForce> thanks all!
[03:40] <Seven_Six_Two> b1lly, if the source directory doesn't have children.
[03:40] <b1lly> it does
[03:41] <Seven_Six_Two> b1lly, sorry, I meant you do need the switch for recursive if your source has children
[03:42] <b1lly> im confused
[03:42] <b1lly> do i do sudo cp -r fromdir todir ?
[03:43] <arielsanflo> someone help me I need a c-language channel in Spanish
[03:43] <Opiniee> How would one encrypt an already installed ubuntu system? Can that be done with the install CD without destroying the already existing operating system?
[03:44] <leapy0yo> can any of you guess why I can mount an network drive even though it is not listed in the remote host's samba?
[03:44] <trey> Wasn't that question just asked like 10 minutes ago?
[03:44] <Aginor> leapy0yo, it's not advertised but still accessible
[03:44] <Pseudoremora> Hi, I'm currently running Ubuntu 10.10; for some reason, when I boot my computer, I always have to run /etc/init.d/networking restart to get my eth0 connection working, it doesn't work automatically... any ideas?
[03:45] <arielsanflo> someone help me I need a c-language channel in Spanish
[03:45] <tensorpudding> !ot | arielsanflo
[03:45] <leapy0yo> aginor, what?
[03:45] <Aginor> leapy0yo, that's my guess
[03:46] <b1lly> im having trouble
[03:46] <Blazix> So I have /home mounted as a separate partition, but now I can't create any more because I have exceeded the limit. What would I need to do to unmount the "/home" partition, and use the current partition for my /home directories?
[03:46] <Aginor> !ask | b1lly
[03:46] <b1lly> sry got sidetracked
[03:46] <ayecee> Blazix: what does it mean, exceeded the limit?
[03:47] <ayecee> have you run out of space on the /home /partition?
[03:47] <Aginor> leapy0yo, there's a difference between a share being browsable/advertised and accessible
[03:47] <Sean93> Seven_Six_Two, thanks, that got it working
[03:47] <pfifo> Blazix, comment the approprate line in /etc/fstab and reboot
[03:47] <b1lly> i have a webdir in /var/www/homeskoold          and it loads index.php properly... now when i downloaded my files from my old ftp server, and cp them to the homeskoold folder
[03:47] <b1lly> im having trouble viewing them on the web
[03:47] <Blazix> I can only have 5 partitions.
[03:47] <ayecee> b1lly: what happens when you try?
[03:47] <Seven_Six_Two> Sean93, no problem
[03:47] <b1lly> blank page
[03:47] <b1lly> and when i use my gui to look ath the files int he dir
[03:47] <b1lly> they all have like "x" on the top right of the icons
[03:47] <Aginor> b1lly, have you looked at the access and error logs of the webserver?
[03:47] <Seven_Six_Two> Blazix, not if you make extended partitions. you can only have 4 primary
[03:48] <b1lly> i havnt but i think thats what the trouble is
[03:48] <Seven_Six_Two> and selecting extended uses up a primary, I think
[03:48] <leapy0yo> aginor, in the gui config window it does not list the drive and the smbd.conf file does not list the drive... for i deleted and disabled that... but i can still mount it, why? is it because it is shared through windows enabling it?
[03:48] <Blazix> Yes, and I did a mistake of creating everything primary. :/
[03:48] <b1lly> Aginor: how do i fix the access
[03:49] <b1lly> better yet, how do i view those logs
[03:49] <leapy0yo> aginor, i am going to try enabling it through windows of another drive
[03:49] <Seven_Six_Two> b1lly, sudo chown -R newusername.newusername /home/newusername
[03:49] <b1lly> huh
[03:49] <Blazix> pfifo, on /etc/fstab. Do I comment out UUID=b25ca6b2-eddf-446a-81fc-cbec534e25d6 /home           ext4    ?
[03:49] <Aginor> b1lly, if it is the file permissions, right click on the files and select permissions. You want the owner, group and everyone to be able to read the files
[03:50] <pfifo> Blazix, that looks correct
[03:50] <Aginor> b1lly, the logs are likely to be in /var/log/apache2
[03:50] <Seven_Six_Two> Aginor, I think a new user was created, and all files copied as root
[03:50] <Aginor> b1lly, assuming you do use apache2
[03:50] <Aginor> Seven_Six_Two, that would make sense
[03:50] <pfifo> Blazix, make sure to cp -a /etc/skel to /home/blazix on the root partition
[03:50] <b1lly> you want me to look at the acces.log or the error.log
[03:50] <Seven_Six_Two> b1lly, sorry, I'm confused...Aginor
[03:51] <Blazix> Gotcha. Thanks
[03:51] <Aginor> b1lly, the error log will show you the errors, look at that and see what errors you have gotten
[03:51] <Blazix> I will give that a try.
[03:51] <Aginor> Seven_Six_Two, that the files are not world readable and owned by root
[03:51] <Pseudoremora> Hi, I'm currently running Ubuntu 10.10; for some reason, when I boot my computer, I always have to run /etc/init.d/networking restart to get my eth0 connection working, it doesn't work automatically... any ideas?
[03:51] <alfredoero> hi
[03:51] <b1lly> also Aginor: it says when i right click the folder and goto permissions that i am not the owern so i cannot change these permissions
[03:52] <Seven_Six_Two> b1lly, Aginor these are files for www?
[03:52] <b1lly> group is set to access files and so is others
[03:52] <b1lly> yeah
[03:53] <b1lly> how do i set permissions to read and write for them
[03:53] <Aginor> Seven_Six_Two, presumably, bot for apache to interpret them they don't need to be owned by www, do they?
[03:53] <Seven_Six_Two> b1lly, cd /var/www && sudo chown -R www-data.www-data ./*
[03:53] <Seven_Six_Two> Aginor, www-data is the owner for apache2
[03:54] <b1lly> Seven_Six_Two: i am not folloiwng
[03:54] <Aginor> Seven_Six_Two, yes, but apache doesn't need to own the files to read them, just have read access
[03:54] <BabyGirl> does anyone know where the screensavers are stored on ubuntu.10.4
[03:54] <b1lly> Seven_Six_Two: i just want to change the permissions for my var/www/homeskoold/gelberg folder to read write permissions
[03:54] <wjlafrance> Hello! I'm trying to VNC into an ubuntu server. Which apt-get packages should I isntall?
[03:54] <b1lly> for all the recursive inc
[03:54] <tonsofpcs> wjlafrance: depends what you're expecting.
[03:55] <b1lly> or readonly
[03:55] <Seven_Six_Two> Aginor, it depends on what the files are, if you just want world readable, sudo chmod 774
[03:56] <HeIsRisen> Can somebody explain to me why cairo dock open gl opens on boot for one login on my 10.10 box, but not on the other?
[03:56] <Seven_Six_Two> b1lly, well it depends on who the owner is. your server is in group, or you want world readable. 774 will do world readable
[03:56] <b1lly> ya so do
[03:56] <b1lly> sudo chmod -R dir 744
[03:56] <wjlafrance> tonsofpcs: a gnome desktop, similar to ubuntu-client
[03:56] <tonsofpcs> .... are you expecting to connect to the local session or have your own?
[03:56] <Seven_Six_Two> if you're in the www dir:    sudo chmod -R w+r ./dir-to-change
[03:56] <Aginor> Seven_Six_Two, I know that, but b1lly don't, let's try to help him to change the owner and permissions of the files in to something appropriate.
[03:57] <Seven_Six_Two> Aginor, I agree...
[03:57] <Seven_Six_Two> Aginor, I'd like to eat dinner though, so hands free for a few...
[03:57] <b1lly> billy@billy-ubuntu:/var/www$ sudo chmod -R w+r ./homeskoold/gelberg/
[03:57] <b1lly> chmod: invalid mode: `w+r'
[03:58] <leapy0yo> hi
[03:58] <ayecee> b1lly: probably o+r
[03:58] <leapy0yo> is there a way to see what drives are shared on my host, that others can network mount?
[03:59] <b1lly> how do i delete a folder and all files iwthin
[03:59] <Seven_Six_Two> ayecee, thanks
[03:59] <ayecee> leapy0yo: using what protocol?
[03:59] <b1lly> cuz it somehow just lost like 8 files
[03:59] <rcconf> b1lly: rm -rf folder
[03:59] <pfifo> If I use my time machine to obtain a copy of ubuntu 12.04 can I get support for it here or do i have to goto #ubuntu+3
[03:59] <rcconf> b1lly: dont do that if you are newbie
[03:59] <rcconf> use Nautilus
[03:59] <ayecee> pfifo: the latter
[03:59] <b1lly> rcconf:  dont do what
[04:00] <Teligard> Hi all
[04:00] <rcconf>  <b1lly> how do i delete a folder and all files iwthin
[04:00] <rcconf> thats what the command does.
[04:00] <leapy0yo> ayecee , samba
[04:00] <Teligard> any ideas why the following entry in my fstab isn't working:
[04:00] <Teligard> ' //mybook2/Public/XBMC_layout /mnt/mediaserver1 cifs rw,user=relder,credentials=/etc/samba/.credentials,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777  0 0
[04:01] <b1lly> for some reaosn when i
[04:01] <ayecee> leapy0yo: I think you could do something like smbclient -L localhost, but i'm not entirely sure.
[04:01] <Teligard> I've tried both smbfs and cifs
[04:01] <b1lly> sudo chmod -R 774 ./homeskoold/gelberg half the files dissapear
[04:01] <ayecee> Teligard: what happens when you try?
[04:01] <rcconf> b1lly: ?
[04:02] <b1lly> like right now
[04:02] <Teligard> I get the following i the dmsg: [16353.273928] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -22
[04:02] <Jupp> I somehow managed to damage my partition table on a secondary drive I use for storage. The second drive is /dev/sdb and it used to be only one partion sdb1. the drive started to fail and after "fixing it", automount fails. I can only mount the drive by "mount /dev/sdb" instead of "mount /dev/sdb1". I don't know how I manage to do that but help fixing it is appreciated.
[04:02] <b1lly> all my files and folders in var/www/homeskoold/gelberg have no permissions
[04:02] <b1lly> and im trying to make them readable
[04:02] <Teligard> And the shell returns: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //mybook2/Public/XBMC_layout,
[04:02] <Teligard>        missing codepage or helper program, or other error
[04:02] <Teligard>        (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might
[04:02] <Teligard>        need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program)
[04:02] <Teligard>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[04:02] <FloodBot1> Teligard: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:02] <Teligard>        dmesg | tail  or so
[04:03] <ayecee> Jupp: what did you do that broke it?
[04:03] <ayecee> Jupp: that is, what did you do while "fixing" it?
[04:03] <Jupp> ayecee, don't know I mainly ran testdisk about a million times and I think I used it to create a parition
[04:04] <Teligard> http://paste.ubuntu.com/586326/
[04:04] <ayecee> Jupp: is there any data on the drive that you want to keep?
[04:04] <Teligard> Sorry about the preceived flooding
[04:05] <Jupp> ayecee, yes. lots of it. I would transfer it to another drive and reformat, but it's too much data
[04:05] <b1lly> mh /var/www/homeskoold/gelberg folder has no read or write permissions set, how do i set them...becuz of this i am not able to access it via the web
[04:05] <Jupp> I would like to keep as much as possible
[04:05] <ayecee> Jupp: then continue to mount it as /dev/sdb. The available fixes would require a backup.
[04:06] <b1lly> anyone?
[04:06] <ayecee> b1lly: anyone what?
[04:06] <pfifo> Jupp, gparted has a utility to fix you partition table, it will examine your disk and make a guess at how it was setup before. You should be able to recover using it.
[04:07] <b1lly> the file permissions of my var/www/homeskoold/gelberg folder
[04:07] <ayecee> b1lly: what about them?
[04:07] <b1lly> are not set, so i cant access the files in that folder via my web url
[04:07] <b1lly> im trying to set them to "read"
[04:07] <ayecee> chmod o=r /var/www/homeskoold/geldberg
[04:07] <BabyGirl> when they talk about splash screen in gmonelook.org is that the boot screen ?
[04:07] <izinucs> b1lly: do a "ls -la" and paste one of the resulting lines
[04:07] <ayecee> err.. o+r
[04:08] <spirals> BabyGirl, generally that refers to the screen before the login screen
[04:08] <b1lly> ayecee if i wanted to make them all o+r for the files and folders in it
[04:08] <b1lly> do i need to do sudo chmod -R o+r /var/www/homeskoold/gelberg
[04:08] <ayecee> yes
[04:08] <Teligard> Ok, let me try this from a different angle
[04:08] <BabyGirl> thanks,spirals
[04:08] <spirals> yw
[04:08] <ayecee> b1lly: could you put a whole sentence in a line? that way we don't have to wait for you to finish the sentence.
[04:08] <izinucs> b1lly: most likely the files are not owned by www-data or your isp is blocking port 80
[04:09] <b1lly> thx
[04:09] <Teligard> how to I automount a network share  using (I presume its the only, or best option) fstab
[04:09] <b1lly> izinucs: my files are owned by root?
[04:09] <b1lly> is this bad
[04:09] <izinucs> b1lly: yep.. not what you want.. sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/*
[04:10] <ayecee> b1lly: it depends on the permissions. show the permissions on one of the files with ls -la, as suggested.
[04:10] <b1lly> izinucs: whats the reason for this
[04:10] <pfifo> Teligard, exactly the way your doing it already
[04:10] <izinucs> b1lly: www-data is the standard owner of apache's files in /var/www ..
[04:11] <b1lly> ayecee: http://pastebin.com/2bwLJfKy
[04:11] <izinucs> b1lly: you as "manipulator" of the files should be in the www-data group
[04:11] <b1lly> im very new to linux so
[04:11] <b1lly> im trying to follow but im a little lost
[04:12] <ayecee> b1lly: the gelberg folder is readable. which file are you trying to access?
[04:12] <b1lly> its readable now, after i did the chmod that you told me
[04:12] <b1lly> it works good now
[04:12] <ayecee> ok!
[04:13] <b1lly> but how come i have to chown
[04:13] <b1lly> like izinucs is saying
[04:13] <izinucs> b1lly: protected files all have a specific owner.. your stuff is owned by you.. system files are owned by root.. web served files are owned by www-data.. after that you also deal with permissions on those files.. read only, read+write, read_write+execute for three levels.. owner, group and everyone.
[04:13] <izinucs> b1lly: chown=change owner
[04:13] <leapy0yo> I don't understand why samba is sharing a hard drive that is not in /etc/samba/smb.conf ... anyone think of a reason?
[04:14] <ayecee> b1lly: because you copied the files as root
[04:14] <b1lly> izinucs: when i setup ftp accounts, do i just set folder ownership to the same as the ftp username
[04:14] <ayecee> leapy0yo: magic leprechauns have staged a daring assault on your computer while you're sleeping.
[04:14] <mister_m> what is the difference between ubuntu and xubuntu
[04:15] <wjlafrance> Can I install the full chain of ubuntu-desktop software on top of ubuntu-server, but disable GDM from starting on boot?
[04:15] <pfifo> leapy0yo, can you pastebin you config and what directory is it sharing
[04:15] <izinucs> b1lly: ftp setup is a little more tricky.. depend on if you want each user confined to their own /home folder or make it universal.. I'm not good at setting up ftp.
[04:15] <ayecee> mister_m: ubuntu provides the gnome UI by default, while xubuntu shows the xfce UI by default.
[04:15] <mister_m> ayecee: ok, cool thank you
[04:15] <bastidrazor> wjlafrance: yes.
[04:15] <gerardo_> spanish ?
[04:15] <ayecee> gerardo_: no
[04:16] <wjlafrance> bastidrazor: how?
[04:16] <b1lly> izinucs: now that i set the ownership to www-data
[04:16] <wjlafrance> gerardo_: #ubuntu-es I think
[04:16] <b1lly> is this just a security measure?
[04:16] <gerardo_> thanks
[04:16] <ayecee> b1lly: something like that, yes.
[04:17] <izinucs> b1lly: yes and no.. yes because security for apache is handled by apache if the files are owned by the apache user group.. www-data..
[04:17] <bastidrazor> wjlafrance: install ubuntu-desktop then edit the file /etc/default/grub .. change GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text"  then sudo update-grub.
[04:18] <izinucs> b1lly: no because if the files in /var/www are not owned by www-data then apache has no rights to present the files to "the world"..
[04:18] <wjlafrance> b1lly: a 774 bitmask (i think you mentioned earlier) gives world noread nowrite execute, so you can't see/read the files but you can execute them. I personally use 775, so you can read/execute but no write
[04:18] <gerardo_> bye ...
[04:18] <cylob> are there debian packages available for firefox 4?
[04:18] <b1lly> izinucs: when i did www-data:www-data         , is that like a username:password? or is that admin:group
[04:18] <bastidrazor> !ff4 | cylob
[04:18] <pfifo> cylob, mozilla should have them available
[04:18] <wjlafrance> bastidrazor: thanks :)
[04:18] <cylob> thanks!
[04:18] <bastidrazor> wjlafrance: you're welcome
[04:18] <rww> cylob: if you mean Ubuntu, see ubottu's factoid. Ask #debian if you mean Debian ;P
[04:19] <izinucs> b1lly: that's a user:group
[04:19] <cylob> i mean ubuntu
[04:19] <mrdeb> so debian is already outdated?
[04:19] <mrdeb> no firefox 4
[04:19] <wjlafrance> b1lly: username:username sets the owner and group of a file. For example when I host my friend's website on my box, I set the ownership to luke:www-data
[04:20] <rww> mrdeb: You say outdated, Debian users say stable.
[04:20] <rww> mrdeb: Ubuntu is the same way but with a shorter release cycle so one doesn't notice as much.
[04:20] <pfifo> outdated isnt a lightswitch, its a dimmer
[04:21] <cylob> can i install gnome 3 shell on my ubuntu 10.10 install?
[04:21] <cylob> i wanna try it out
[04:22] <pfifo> cylob, yeah
[04:22] <rww> cylob: there's a gnome-shell package on maverick, but it's rather out of date. you'd probably be better off playing with a LiveCD of a distro that actually uses GNOME 3.
[04:22] <b1lly> wjlafrance: so why do www-data:www-data
[04:22] <cylob> which distro uses gnome 3 by default?
[04:22] <b1lly> shouldnt i put billy:www-data
[04:22] <truepurple> how do I add flash to ububtu 10.10 64 bit?
[04:23] <rww> cylob: the upcoming Fedora release will; GNOME 3's website has http://www.gnome3.org/tryit.html also
[04:23] <cylob> cool thanks
[04:23] <kerrie> does anyone know how to get jmp running on Ubuntu 10.10?
[04:23] <cylob> im a bit concerned, btw, about ubuntu's decision to drop gnome 3
[04:23] <cylob> not that ive used it yet
[04:23] <BabyGirl> spirals:) can i put my ubuntu 9.4 and get the splash from that distro,,i love it better thatn 10.4 it looks more profeccional for me at work
[04:24] <wjlafrance> b1lly: ideally only the webserver and the superuser can touch the web data. If you're the only one who's going to touch the web data, such as on a home server, I can't think of a reason not to do that. It's a security risk though, but I don't think it matters on a home server
[04:24] <edbian> cylob: Might now sound like it but I think an alternative to X (wayland) sounds great.  Stir up some friendly competition and make everything better for everybody
[04:24] <izinucs> b1lly: you could do that too.. as long as the second name is www-data
[04:24] <cylob> edbian: so the next ubuntu will use wayland?
[04:24] <b1lly> wjlafrance: why is it a security risk
[04:24] <cylob> what?
[04:25] <edbian> cylob: It will be an option down the road I believe.  I'm not sure about the next version or not
[04:25] <rww> Wayland has nothing to do with Ubuntu's decisions about GNOME 3, and Wayland won't be used in Ubuntu for a long time yet.
[04:25] <edbian> cylob: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wayland
[04:25] <kerrie> does anyone know how to get jmp running on Ubuntu 10.10? This is desperate, as I have an assignment due in two days and can't walk to uni because I've injured my foot. The uni service desk refuses to help
[04:25] <cylob> if i dont like unity i guess ill swithc to fedora
[04:25] <rww> but, this is all more on-topic for #ubuntu+1 or #ubuntu-offtopic than here, since #ubuntu is for already-released Ubuntu versions :\
[04:25] <edbian> rww: Thanks
[04:26] <wjlafrance> b1lly: because, if i remember correctly www-data doesn't have a password so it can't be bruteforced. You have a password, you can be bruteforced. The question is, who will try to bruteforce you?
[04:26] <pfifo> cylob, I plan to move to fedora as well
[04:26] <cylob> people talk crap about gnome 3 but i have faith cause its gnome
[04:27] <rww> !ot
[04:27] <cylob> my bad rww
[04:29] <kerrie> does anyone know how to get jmp running on Ubuntu 10.10? This is desperate, as I have an assignment due in two days and can't walk to uni because I've injured my foot. The uni service desk refuses to help
[04:29] <hellupline_> hello ubuntu users, I am having trouble with TOTEM, yesterday it was perfect, but today, its playing videos too fast,
[04:29] <tonsofpcs> your uni even knows what Ubuntu is? wow.
[04:30] <kerrie> tonsofpcs: hardly
[04:30] <tonsofpcs> i also have n o clue what jmp is so can't really help
[04:31] <izinucs> hellupline_: there are other choices that work better .. try vlc
[04:31] <wjlafrance> tonsofpcs: my college uses ubuntu for all the programming classes
[04:32] <pfifo> kerrie, desperate right? Nothing a couple hundred dollars cant fix... http://www.ubuntu.com/business/services/overview
[04:32] <edbian> wjlafrance: That is amazing
[04:32] <Darkenvy> I cant seem to share any SMB folders except one. whats different between these folders?
[04:33] <ayecee> kerrie: what happens when you try?
[04:33] <Darkenvy> OSX tells me "cannot find" blah blah
[04:33] <hellupline_> izinucs, well.... i like totem,
[04:33] <kerrie> ayecee: it says "License invalid" when
[04:33] <spirals> BabyGirl, you might be able to find it on gnome-look.
[04:33] <kerrie> ayecee: I use the linux license off the uni website
[04:34] <ayecee> kerrie: has jmp worked for you in the past on your machine, or is this the first time you've tried?
[04:34] <BabyGirl> spirals:) im looking,i dont see it
[04:34] <kerrie> ayecee: It has worked on windows, but doesn't work through wine or virtualbox
[04:35] <Us3r_Unfriendly> bette
[04:36] <Peddy> how can I install ubuntu on a new machine so that the entire disk is encrypted?
[04:36] <Darkenvy> I am unable to change permissions of a mounted drive folder even as root
[04:37] <ayecee> kerrie: do you get the same error in both wine and virtualbox?
[04:37] <pfifo> Peddy, select that option during install
[04:37] <Darkenvy> when in ubuntu properties, anything I change instantly snaps back to the old
[04:37] <Peddy> pfifo, are you certain that whole-disk encryption is an option at install?
[04:37] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Peddy: it should be in the install
[04:37] <pfifo> Peddy, yes
[04:37] <b1lly> wat dir are the web server logs again?
[04:38] <truepurple> How do I install flash on ubuntu?
[04:38] <kerrie> ayecee: no, they don't work in wine and virtualbox for different reasons. I am trying to get the native linux jmp working
[04:38] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: 32 or 64?
[04:38] <pfifo> Peddy, well it encrypts the partitons that ubuntu uses, your windows wont be encrypted of course
[04:38] <Peddy> okay, thanks pfifo. That's for the regular desktop install CD too, right, not just alternative install cd?
[04:38] <Peddy> pfifo, I don't have windows on here (;
[04:38] <ayecee> kerrie: when running the native version you get the "license invalid" message? Is there any further text to the error?
[04:39] <pfifo> Peddy, then is ubuntu is using the 'full disk' then it will be full disk encryptoion ;)
[04:39] <spirals> BabyGirl, search in Software Center for "plymouth-theme", you will see some other choices like "solar" "glow" "spinfinity" maybe one of them is more to your liking
[04:39] <karex> Help me, firefox' font rendering goes bad, but it was nice like another application..
[04:39] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly  64bit 10.10
[04:39] <kerrie> ayecee: It is the native linux version that I get the "license invalid" err. There is no further info
[04:39] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: if your using a 32 bit then it should be in the repos.  I know jordan from This Week in Linux just did a youtube video about adobe's new flash for linux 32 if your interested
[04:39] <Peddy> pfifo, OK, thanks again. My reason for asking is that, in past installs, it only encrypted the home directory. But this is good news
[04:39] <spirals> BabyGirl, if you want to go all out customizing that kind of thing try this control panel app "GDM2 Setup" http://maketecheasier.com/gdm2-setup-reclaim-control-of-your-login-in-ubuntu-lucid/2010/05/20
[04:39] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: i run 64 and it was a bit tricky
[04:40] <ayecee> kerrie: i'm sorry, short of contacting the publishers of jmp, i have no suggestions.
[04:40] <Darkenvy> The permissions of [my drive] could not be determined :|
[04:40] <Darkenvy> wtf?!
[04:40] <kerrie> ayecee: thanks for your help
[04:40] <cylob> i read that the performance difference between 32 and 64 bit is negligible, but that 64 bit will end up using alot more hard drive space
[04:40] <cylob> am i way off on that?
[04:40] <pfifo> Peddy, thats on the user setup screen, the full disk encryption is in the partitioning section of the install
[04:40] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: It is 64 bit, I was told to run a particular command, I ran it, it seemed to install, but it didn't work
[04:41] <edbian> cylob: I do not think it takes up any more harddrive space.  64 bit allows you to use more than 3.2 Gb of ram.  (there is a technicality)
[04:41] <ayecee> cylob: it will use more, but it will also be negligible with current disk sizes.
[04:41] <BabyGirl> spirals:) thank u so much for ur help,GOD bless u for helping the needed people
[04:41] <cylob> so if you have under 3.2gb ram, there wouldnt be a reason to use 64 bit?
[04:41] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: I also found a file online specific to my OS, But I had trouble with that too
[04:42] <edbian> cylob: Not really.  Besides that it's the future
[04:42] <cylob> cool thanks for the info
[04:43] <spirals> BabyGirl, you're welcome, also bookmark http://www.webupd8.org/2010/10/script-to-fix-ubuntu-plymouth-for.html if you are running official ATI or Nvidia 3d drivers you are probably affected by a graphical glitch at the start of bootup. separate from the splash screen stuff. but relevant to professional appearance.
[04:43] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: download the 32 adobe flash from their site in a .deb then if you had downloaded to your ~/Downloads folder, then open a terminal and type:    dpkg --force-architecture --install ~/Downloads/"package name"
[04:43] <leapy0yo> i do ls -l , and I do not see anything that suggests nor says that a directory is a symbolic link
[04:43] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: you might have to run the command as a admin using "sudo"
[04:44] <BabyGirl> spirals:) thanks
[04:44] <spirals> BabyGirl, but if you're not running the official ('restricted') drivers then you don't need that script because it's not glitched. good luck.
[04:44] <parapara> hello
[04:44] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: let me know when your finish
[04:44] <Dartaris> Hey, can someone help we with an installation issue?
[04:44] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: there is a second part
[04:44] <leapy0yo> in one of my directories it has "~"  , but it is a subdirectory of ~, so i don't understand how it got there nor how to remove it
[04:45] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: How about this - http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/square/ this is made for 64bit ubuntu
[04:45] <leapy0yo> oh i get it now... it is ./
[04:45] <leapy0yo> thanks
[04:45] <parapara> can I just ask a question, or is there a polite way to wait in line? :-)
[04:45] <ayecee> Dartaris: only if you describe it
[04:45] <edbian> parapara: Just ask the question.  No line :)
[04:45] <truepurple> just ask parapara
[04:45] <Darkenvy> am I able to chmod 744/chmod 777 a NTFS?
[04:45] <ayecee> parapara: you are encouraged to ask your question and wait for a response.
[04:45] <parapara> thanks guys
[04:45] <Dartaris> I installed Ubuntu via Wibi and restarted but all I got were coloured blocks.
[04:45] <BabyGirl> spirals:) im not running any graphics,,i dont have graphic card,,is a Acer Apire 5315  :)
[04:45] <edbian> parapara: Don't thank us yet! :D
[04:45] <Dartaris> Anyone know why that might be?
[04:46] <Darkenvy> I am UNABLE to samba share this folder because my permissions are wrong on this NTFS drive
[04:46] <ayecee> parapara: bearing in mind that if no one knows, no one might answer :)
[04:46] <parapara> I'm having kind of weird issue -> when I try to open synaptic, it asks for a password, and when I enter my password it says the password is invalid
[04:46] <parapara> however, I can open synaptic from the terminal with sudo synaptic
[04:46] <spirals> BabyGirl, k that last one doesn't affect you then. you should be good with the theme packages and the login customizer app
[04:46] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: I haven't used it...I didn't hear good stuff about that package.  Anyone else think http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/square/ is good?
[04:46] <Peddy> parapara, could you try "gksu synaptic" in terminal?
[04:46] <folorn> im looking for someone who's done a install of quake4  linux- the question is why do i get a texture error and it semi locks up- when i try to ./ aka run the program
[04:46] <edbian> parapara: What about this: gksudo synaptic
[04:47] <b1lly> how do i view the folder access thru cmd line
[04:47] <ayecee> folorn: could you provide the specific error as well?
[04:47] <b1lly> oh wiat nm
[04:47] <b1lly> wait i forget
[04:47] <Us3r_Unfriendly> parapara: what happens when you do what folorn said to do?
[04:47] <BabyGirl> spirals:)  thanks
[04:47] <parapara> gksu gives me the same incorrect password error; gksudo synaptic works
[04:47] <folorn> yep it says texture error when i try to load it
[04:47] <Peddy> parapara, I disconnected there - say again please?
[04:47] <parapara> gksu gives me the same incorrect password error; gksudo synaptic works
[04:48] <ayecee> folorn: is that the full error? It says "texture error", and nothing else when you load quake4?
[04:48] <parapara> also, no idea if this is related - I don't remember my linux command line - but su doesn't work
[04:48] <parapara> while sudo des
[04:48] <edbian> Aren't they all the same app ?
[04:48] <parapara> does*
[04:48] <folorn> lemme try again but i might have to reboot again
[04:48] <folorn> 1sec
[04:48] <b1lly> does this mean we have full access to this dir drwxr-xr-x 4 www-data www-data 4096 2011-03-27 23:45 users
[04:48] <parapara> I get su: Authentication Failure
[04:48] <pfifo> su != sudo
[04:48] <spirals> parapara: sudo su -
[04:48] <Peddy> parapara, an easy solution would be this: right-click on "system", press edit, navigate to System>Administration, click on synaptic, properties, and then change gksu to gksudo
[04:48] <parapara> spirals: that works
[04:49] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Peddy: might be some glitch...have you tried changing your passwd?
[04:49] <Peddy> Us3r_Unfriendly, wrong person
[04:49] <Us3r_Unfriendly> sorry
[04:49] <Us3r_Unfriendly> :P
[04:49] <Us3r_Unfriendly> parapara: might be some glitch...have you tried changing your passwd?
[04:49] <Peddy> parapara, to clarify, right-click on menu bar>edit menus
[04:49] <Peddy> no problem (;
[04:49] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: You didn't hear good things about it, you mean you heard bad things about it?
[04:49] <parapara> shouldn't su be working though?
[04:50] <pfifo> su will never work in ubuntu
[04:50] <Peddy> I think gksudo is actually a symlink to gksu, so I have no idea
[04:50] <folorn> here's the full error
[04:50] <rww> parapara: no, because su asks for the root password, and the root account is disabled by default
[04:50] <Teligard> pfifoL sudo passwd
[04:50] <parapara> ahhhhhhhhh
[04:50] <parapara> got it
[04:50] <Peddy> parapara, try "su username"
[04:50] <rww> Peddy: it is, but depending on which you use and what's set in gksu-properties, it'll function like su or like sudo.
[04:51] <spirals> Peddy: "su - username" is better so that you get their environment
[04:51] <parapara> Peddy: what should that do?
[04:51] <pfifo> Teligard, enabling the root account is bot unsupported and not recommended
[04:51] <parapara> Peddy: it just brought me back to the same shell prompt
[04:51] <spirals> parapara, what are you actually trying to do?
[04:51] <Peddy> parapara, that was just to show you the proper use of "su"
[04:51] <Darkenvy> oh man I have messed some shit up before on the root account ><
[04:51] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: that's what i have heard.  glitchiness, not very nice to work with.  but again, that's what i have heard...i don't actually have experience with that package.  I just installed the 32 bit version then I used emacs to write a file in my /etc/ directory to make it smooth
[04:52] <Darkenvy> I didnt do that agai haha
[04:52] <parapara> Peddy: oh I got you
[04:52] <parapara> spirals: just to open synaptic
[04:52] <spirals> parapara, gksudo synaptic
[04:52] <parapara> spirals: one sec; I tried the fix
[04:52] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: And that worked?
[04:52] <Peddy> parapara, for a quick and dirty fix,  you could try the "editing menus" thing I said earlier
[04:52] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: no problems :P
[04:52] <parapara> Peddy: I just did it, and it works!
[04:52] <parapara> Peddy: thank you
[04:53] <parapara> I've been messing around with KDE and Gnome and desktop settings and all that
[04:53] <parapara> so I suspect I caused the problem somehow
[04:53] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: Please link me to it so I can be sure to have the right one
[04:53] <Peddy> parapara, that's great. You're welcome! Remember, it's only a temporary fix, and similar problems may happen with other programs
[04:53] <parapara> Peddy: got you
[04:53] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: I am in love with Linux distros.  Some more than others.  But I feel every company gear their software to windows.  I sometimes feel Linux would be king if it were more complete.
[04:54] <spirals> parapara: it's often helpful to create a new user when testing a new desktop environment
[04:54] <parapara> spirals: yeah, I know that now
[04:54] <parapara> spirals: you should have seen the extent to which I broke everything lol
[04:54] <folorn> acceye here's the link with the input with the error
[04:54] <folorn> http://www.vpaste.net/9kmpK
[04:54] <folorn> anyone know how to kill a process that wont close after a error?
[04:54] <spirals> parapara: sounds like the time i decided to try every desktop I could find, all on the same user
[04:55] <Teligard> sudo kill <pid>
[04:55] <folorn> pid?
[04:55] <ayecee> folorn: the error is "texture compression unavailable", apparently.
[04:55] <Teligard> process id
[04:55] <parapara> spirals: on Gnome I actually got rid of all the panels and was using a mac-like dock
[04:55] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: So the link with the flash download you are recommending if you would please.
[04:55] <parapara> spirals: but then I got rid of the dock by mistake
[04:55] <Teligard> I usually do ps aux | grep <app>
[04:55] <ayecee> folorn: what kind of video card do you have? Is this in a virtual machine?
[04:55] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
[04:55] <folorn> okay pid = the current process ?
[04:55] <parapara> thanks again Peddy and spirals for your help
[04:55] <parapara> bye guys!
[04:56] <spirals> parapara: a good dock like Docky won't give that problem
[04:56] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: I downloaded the .deb which all of them on there are 32 bit
[04:56] <Teligard> the process Id associated with task you want to kill
[04:56] <Peddy> folorn, have you tried the "force quit" tool on the panel?
[04:56] <Teligard> ie. ps aux | grep xbmc
[04:56] <Teligard> will return the processes with xbmc in the name.
[04:57] <Teligard> then you type sudo kill 12345
[04:57] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: You don't recommend the latter "apt" one, or you just don't know?
[04:57] <Teligard> assuming 12345 is the process ID associated
[04:57] <leapy0yo> is there a way to move files even whereas it says cannot remove destination... when the destination is the same.. i try -f to overwrite but it does not work for whole directories, i think
[04:58] <Teligard> mv -r directory
[04:58] <Teligard> -r = recursive
[04:58] <lucid_j> Is there any open source city building game for linux like caesar of pharaoh?
[04:58] <pfifo> why not just killall xbmc
[04:58] <lucid_j> 0ad is nice but still in alpha..
[04:58] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: I know the way I have it works, that's all I'm saying.  If someone else has a easier way of doing it, please share.  My was is downloading the 32 bit, forcing the install with dpkg, and then creating a file in /etc/ to make it run smoother
[04:58] <ayecee> lucid_j: no, but I think there's one similar to simcity.
[04:58] <Us3r_Unfriendly> *my way
[04:59] <Teligard> I'm alway concerned that something else will get killed as well
[04:59] <lucid_j> ayecee: which one?
[04:59] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: But there are multiple 32bits to choose from
[04:59] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: I downloaded the .deb
[04:59] <folorn> i tried everything peddy
[05:00] <ayecee> lucid_j: micropolis, maybe?
[05:00] <folorn> when i go to run the program it locks up, not sure on the video card it should work fine. how you see the name of the vid card ?
[05:00] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: No experience or knowledge of the APT one? Why did you choose deb?
[05:00] <ayecee> folorn: glxinfo, maybe
[05:00] <leapy0yo> is there a way to move files even whereas it says cannot remove destination... when the destination is the same.. i try -f to overwrite but it does not work for whole directories, i think
[05:00] <Peddy> folorn, to see your video card, try "lspci | grep -i vga"
[05:01] <folorn> i need this quake4 process killed but dont know the exact syntax
[05:02] <ayecee> folorn: which process?
[05:02] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: if it was a apt, then it's a repo which you add to your software center...that's way when there's a update with flash, ubuntu will download it automatically through software update.  which in this case might be bad, seeing that you had to "ghetto rig" it to work.  The update might screw that up.  but I would say just do what your comfortable with.  apt is a way of doing it, so is the square, and my way
[05:02] <folorn> quake4
[05:02] <folorn> its stuck at the panel
[05:03] <ayecee> folorn: so you don't have a terminal available?
[05:03] <eamon> does anyone know how to set the aspect ratio in mplayer?
[05:03] <pfifo> a swarm of hornets recently made a nest in my old server, everytime i turn it on they come out and attack me, will reinstalling ubuntu fix this issue?
[05:03] <spirals> folorn, do 'pgrep quake' in a terminal; that might give you the process id
[05:03] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: What is repo?
[05:03] <folorn> i do got the terminal just dont know how to excute the command
[05:03] <ayecee> pfifo: nope. gonna have to kill it with fire.
[05:03] <jiltdil> eamn: are you taking about scale length
[05:03] <spirals> folorn, grep is text search, pgrep searches the text of the process list
[05:03] <folorn> k 1sec the vid card deal is here>>> dustin@ubuntu:~$ lspci |grep -i vga
[05:03] <folorn> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[05:04] <folorn> pgrep done nothing apparently
[05:04] <eamon> jiltdil: say I wanted to force playback in 16:9 or 4:3 how would I do that?
[05:05] <ayecee> folorn: what pgrep command are you using?
[05:05] <folorn> i typed pgrep quake4 to list the process's
[05:05] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: it's basically a server that has apps that has been looked at to made sure it's virus free and such (repository)  you add a ppa to your software center to access the downloads.  Good also for 3rd party downloads.  sudo add-apt-repository "ppa name"  is another good way of doing it
[05:05] <spirals> folorn 'pgrep quake' not quake4
[05:05] <b1lly> how do i make a directory, so that when I use my "mkdir" or I upload a file via PHP script, it allows it to happen
[05:06] <ayecee> folorn: and there were none?
[05:06] <b1lly> cuz right now its neglecting file uploads
[05:06] <ayecee> folorn: you may have to use "ps aux" to find out what he process is called.
[05:06] <spirals> folorn, just my hunch, often version numbers don't make it into process names
[05:06] <b1lly> is there something i have to setup via my apache server config to allow file uploads
[05:06] <folorn> can i just right click delete from the control panel or will i loose it all ?
[05:06] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: So you think the apt is probably going to work at first, but maybe get busted if updated?
[05:06] <ayecee> folorn: you can do that, and you will not lose it all, but it might not terminate the quake process.
[05:07] <spirals> folorn: 'pgrep quake', failing that 'ps aux' and use eyes to spot the name as ayecee said
[05:07] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: yes IF you have to ghetto rig it to work
[05:07] <spirals> the pid will be on the left side of the line with the name
[05:07] <jiltdil> eamon: try this if it works sudo  mplayer -vo svga -ao sdl scale=0:0 ~/Desktop/a.avi    set your scale
[05:07] <pfifo> b1lly, create the uploads directory and then chown it to www-data
[05:07] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: us 64bit users didn't get as much love as the 32bit guys did
[05:08] <jiltdil> eamon: i am not confirm that it works fine but try perhabs it works
[05:08] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: But don't I need updates? Old flash programs start becoming incompatible with newer games and such, do you not have that problem?
[05:08] <ayecee> 64bit is perverse, is why
[05:08] <folorn> now i lost my control panel wtf
[05:08] <jiltdil> jiltdil: if you have any video on desktop i give the path
[05:09] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: It is just a matter of time though, 8GB is not too much off standard, once 8GB becomes necessary for a copy of windows, you will see 64bit everywhere
[05:09] <folorn> so any suggestions ?
[05:09] <folorn> on how to get my control panel back?
[05:09] <spirals> folorn: 'pgrep quake', failing that 'ps aux' and use eyes to spot the name as ayecee said
[05:09] <folorn> k 1min
[05:09] <ayecee> folorn: reboot
[05:09] <folorn> kk brb
[05:09] <b1lly> pfifo: the uploads dir is already www-data
[05:09] <jiltdil> eamon:sudo  mplayer -vo svga -ao sdl scale=0:0  /path/to/file
[05:10] <b1lly> but it wont let me upload
[05:10] <xiaoshen> how to use dual connection ( lan and 3g modem ) in linux?
[05:10] <spirals> ayecee: ok I'm not touching this one :3
[05:10] <ayecee> b1lly: what happens when you try?
[05:10] <eamon> jiltdil: ok i'll tryi it
[05:10] <ayecee> spirals: me neither! :D
[05:10] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: 64bit is popular with the server guys.  but everyone I know that uses linux usually uses a 32, just because it's easier I guess
[05:10] <xiaoshen> in windows i only have to do route -p add 10.220.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 10.201.105.1 (route for lan)
[05:10] <b1lly> ayecee: it makes the folder (the ownership is set to www-data), but it doesnt upload the file
[05:10] <abhinav-> hid3, I am trying to install xchat-gnome but apt is saying that the package cannot be authenticated
[05:10] <b1lly> my error log doesnt say anything
[05:10] <spirals> Us3r_Unfriendly, we use 32bit because we installed when Adobe didn't support flash on 64
[05:11] <eamon> jiltdil: no video
[05:11] <spirals> And now we're stuck :3
[05:11] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: Well I got 64bit because I got 8gb ram, and I am not going to have over half my ram capacity wasted
[05:11] <pfifo> b1lly, then you may need to chmod 0755 the directory, but that should be the default
[05:11] <jiltdil> Us3r_Unifriendly:how 32bit is easier compared to 64 bit?
[05:11] <ayecee> b1lly: what are you using to upload?
[05:11] <b1lly> website
[05:11] <abhinav->  I am trying to install xchat-gnome but apt is saying that the package cannot be authenticated
[05:11] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: same here...damn new computers with all this hardware.  gosh
[05:12] <ayecee> b1lly: what is the cgi that is receiving the upload?
[05:12] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: So back to my previous question about the updates
[05:12] <Us3r_Unfriendly> abhinav-: how are you trying to install it with?
[05:12] <b1lly> pfifo: the chmod is 0777
[05:12] <abhinav-> Us3r_Unfriendly,  sudo apt-get install xchat-gnome
[05:12] <b1lly> ayecee: cgi?
[05:12] <jiltdil> abhinav:just try sudo apt-get install xchat
[05:12] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: like i said, do what you comfortable with
[05:12] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: But don't I need updates? Old flash programs start becoming incompatible with newer games and such, do you not have that problem?
[05:12] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: i don't, no
[05:12] <ayecee> b1lly: yes, cgi. How is your website receiving an upload without a cgi?
[05:12] <pfifo> b1lly, did you write this script yourself?
[05:13] <leapy0yo> dudes, I try to move a directories but MV coughs and says that the destination directory already exists, how can i go about fixing that?
[05:13] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: What do you use flash for?
[05:13] <b1lly> i'm using a html form with a php script to handle the file upload
[05:13] <abhinav-> Us3r_Unfriendly, ah ok, it was asking for confirmation in the end. But from software center it was outrightly refusing to install
[05:13] <jiltdil> eamon: use this in F1-F6 mode
[05:14] <Ferrel> Anyone know of issues with ssh connectivity in 10.04 server? it seems to freeze my connection through an admittedly "flakey" openVPN connection, but all other servers(CentOS) work fine except the 10.04's
[05:14] <b1lly> is there something i have to configure in apache to allow that?
[05:14] <Us3r_Unfriendly> abhinav-: so "sudo apt-get install xchat-gnome" doesn't work?  personally i recommend wee-chat or irrsi.  awesome in my opinion
[05:14] <ayecee> b1lly: so the php script is the cgi then?
[05:14] <b1lly> idk what cgi is but I suppose
[05:14] <abhinav-> Us3r_Unfriendly, yes it worked now. It was asking to confirm whether I trust the source or not. I didnt know about wee-chat and irrsi. Will try them out :)
[05:15] <ayecee> the php script receives the file. does the php script have any logging?
[05:15] <pfifo> b1lly, yes, but you might already have it configured properly, did you write the script in question yourself? more then likely you have the path wrong
[05:15] <Us3r_Unfriendly> abhinav-: i've never used xchat.  I'm very old school with emacs, vi, irssi, ect.
[05:15] <Us3r_Unfriendly> abhinav-: well now vim lol
[05:15] <b1lly> pfifo: i did write the script myself, it worked on my old web host
[05:15] <ayecee> pfifo: b1lly doesn't seem like the kind of guy to write a php script.
[05:15] <folorn> hmm
[05:15] <ayecee> oh.
[05:15] <abhinav-> Us3r_Unfriendly, lol :)
[05:15] <ayecee> hmm.
[05:15] <folorn> the control panel is still missing now ?
[05:16] <truepurple>  Us3r_Unfriendly: What do you use flash for?
[05:16] <pfifo> b1lly, what kind of return value do you get from move_uploaded_files?
[05:16] <Us3r_Unfriendly> abhinav-: i would say yes trust the source.  seeing that your downloading the package from ubuntu's repos...unless you added 3rd party ppa's
[05:16] <b1lly> let me see, sec.
[05:16] <folorn> so any ideas ayecee?
[05:16] <b1lly> pfifo its got to be returning false whatever it is
[05:17] <b1lly> because i have it within an if statement
[05:17] <b1lly> but ill check to see if it returns any value, sec
[05:17] <abhinav-> Us3r_Unfriendly, I did that. But I guess this option of confirming the source should be given from the software centre as well
[05:17] <VE2EBP> >> I'm trying to copy stuff from my home directory on a USB ext HDD using nautilus... It won't copy some of the files telling me that I don't have read access... why is that?
[05:17] <ruan> i've got an old hdd that grub is detecting windows on, what files should i remove so that it doesnt detect windows?
[05:17] <ayecee> folorn: ideas on what?
[05:18] <ruan> while keeping the drive functional\
[05:18] <Us3r_Unfriendly> abhinav-: is ubuntu software center asking you or synaptic, or are you using a shell and using sudo apt-get install xchat-gnome??
[05:18] <folorn> so what the errors about and maybe how to fix it so it runs properly?, and how the heck i get my bottom panel back
[05:18] <pfifo> b1lly, if its returning false, then chances are you need to adjust MAX_UPLOAD_SIZE and MAX_POST_SIZE in php.ini, do a phpinfo() to see what these limits are set as
[05:18] <ayecee> folorn: which errors?
[05:19] <truepurple>  Us3r_Unfriendly: What do you use flash for?
[05:19] <folorn> well the ones i posted up in that vpates link- oh well can u help me get my bottom panel back?
[05:19] <abhinav-> Us3r_Unfriendly, First I tried installing directly from the Software Center, it refused to install because of unauthenticated source. Then I switched to the shell and did "sudo apt-get install..." which worked
[05:19] <b1lly> php ini is in the apache2 foldeR?
[05:19] <ayecee> folorn: I don't know what you're talking about.
[05:20] <ayecee> folorn: however, i've had a couple of drinks since you first started, so you may just have to explain it again.
[05:20] <ruan> is boot.ini safe to remove? will ntfs still be functional after removal?
[05:20] <jiltdil> abhinav:type gksudo software-center  in Alt+f2 you will install your softwares from s/w center
[05:20] <Us3r_Unfriendly> abhinav-: weird.  it'll usually ask me if a second time if i want to install with me answering the question with either a y or a n.  never had it ask me if i trust the source.  you running 10.10?
[05:21] <ayecee> ruan: providing the boot.ini reflected only default options, yes.
[05:21] <folorn> well i guess ill have to restart the computer again for the error its a texture compression error it happens when i got to run quake4
[05:21] <folorn> and can u help me get the bottom panel back for my screen
[05:21] <pfifo> b1lly, run phpinfo() it will tell you where the php.ini file is located
[05:21] <b1lly> pfifo: says 2m
[05:21] <b1lly> upload_max_filesize 2M
[05:21] <b1lly> my file is 3.1mb
[05:21] <truepurple>  Us3r_Unfriendly: What do you use flash for?
[05:21] <pfifo> b1lly, try uploading a small file then
[05:21] <abhinav-> Us3r_Unfriendly, yes 10.10 (upgraded from 10.04). Its strange but I noticed this behaviour in recent days only, maybe some update for the software-centre has triggered this
[05:22] <ayecee> folorn: I don't understand. Let's see if this is correct - you ran quake4, received an error about texture compression, rebooted, then your bottom pannel was gone?
[05:22] <sancas> mmm when ubuntu start firts run the console and later them five six seconds charge the gdm this is normal? or need to do something?
[05:22] <b1lly> pfifo: cant i just change my php.ini to allow bigger file
[05:22] <ayecee> sancas: could you repeat that in english?
[05:22] <mrdeb> ayecee: lol
[05:22] <sancas> :( my english bad :(
[05:22] <pfifo> b1lly, of course you can, but if you ccan upload a small file right now then your issue is resolved.
[05:22] <satya> hello
[05:22] <Us3r_Unfriendly> folorn: http://www.watchingthenet.com/restore-panels-in-ubuntu-back-to-their-default-settings.html
[05:23] <Sleaker> anyone able to help me out with some sound problems? I royally messed up my sound :(
[05:23] <b1lly> pfifo: right, I don't have a smaller one tho, has to be a certain format
[05:23] <b1lly> 2M refers to 2 MB?
[05:23] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: i use flash for flash based websites, videos, and what ever else is flash
[05:23] <ayecee> sancas: google translate may be able to help
[05:23] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: the main one being youtube
[05:23] <satya> if i type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, it says failed to fetch http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/......
[05:24] <ayecee> satya: what happens when you do "sudo apt-get update"?
[05:24] <folorn> oi god this sucks
[05:24] <pfifo> b1lly,  set it to like 512M and dont forget the max_post_size as well, you will need to restart apache for settings to take effect, and then still double check what phpinfo() says
[05:24] <truepurple>  Us3r_Unfriendly: Not games?
[05:25] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: i'm not a gamer at all
[05:25] <satya> ayecee: if i do update everything is fine
[05:25] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: but flash games would work too
[05:25] <ayecee> satya: what happens if you do an update, then the install?
[05:25] <truepurple>  Us3r_Unfriendly: Is it easy to change over to the other program?
[05:25] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: don't understand what your talking about
[05:25] <Sleaker> nobody in here familiar with setting up sound devices?
[05:26] <ayecee> satya: is there more to the error message? tbh i have not seen an error message with ...... in it
[05:26] <mrdeb> somewhat familiar
[05:26] <satya> ayecee: if i do update, some index files failed to download
[05:26] <Sleaker> mmm mrdeb, I had sound. played around with installing a different driver and broke all my sound altogether. sound like something you can help with?
[05:27] <folorn> hmm
[05:27] <shuey> hi guys
[05:27] <satya> ayecee: if i do update, some index files failed to download, they have been ignored or old ones used instead
[05:27] <pfifo> Sleaker, its not that, no one wants to mess with sound cause its always a mess... if you troubleshoot yourself and ask a specific question your much more likely to get help
[05:27] <shuey> first time on xchat
[05:27] <Sleaker> pfifo, well I've been through every single help section I can find on the internet.
[05:27] <shuey> was expecting to see a list of users, but don't :D
[05:27] <truepurple>  Us3r_Unfriendly: deb verses apt, when I pick one, is it easy to change over to the other if I decide the one I picked isn't working good enough?
[05:27] <Sleaker> I have a DX58SO, intel-hda I don't imagine it would be that hard to get working, I just am pretty knew.
[05:28] <b1lly> is there a way to delete all files within /var/www/homeskoold/
[05:28] <b1lly> rm: cannot remove
[05:28] <Sleaker> rm -r
[05:28] <Sleaker> will delete all files recursively including adirectory
[05:29] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: you should only install one...not both seeing that they will conflick with each other.  you could install one but if it doesn't work for you, first uninstall the first one and then install the second one.  Just like on a windows machine, you wouldn't use 2 antiviruses at the same time
[05:29] <edwinkcw> b1lly, did you ask a question about ffmpeg?
[05:29] <b1lly> yes, but i got it to work
[05:29] <edwinkcw> b1lly, may I know how?
[05:30] <Us3r_Unfriendly> b1lly: sudo rm -fr /var/www/homeskoold/
[05:30] <Us3r_Unfriendly> b1lly: sudo rm -fr /var/www/homeskoold/*
[05:30] <Us3r_Unfriendly> sorry
[05:30] <b1lly> what was the question
[05:30] <Sleaker> also /var/www/ requires su/sudo access
[05:30] <truepurple>  Us3r_Unfriendly: Uninstalling one and installing the other is pretty easy?
[05:30] <Sleaker> but yah
[05:30] <ouyes> hi I have a question, I am in file browser,and try to find a directory named oph...., I type o, then there is a file named o..., then how I can list all directory with name o?
[05:30] <Sleaker> sound sucks :(
[05:30] <aaron_c> hi, i'm trying to locate a file by its filename, and i'm finding that "locate filename" does not return all existing matches.  does anyone know why?
[05:31] <Us3r_Unfriendly> b1lly: use the * at the end meaning all files...and if there's hidden file try it with .*
[05:31] <elricsfate> test
[05:31] <b1lly> if i mkdir within a dir, will it automatically inherit its parent folders permissions?
[05:31] <elricsfate> Would anyone know how to print on a normal sheet of paper in a notecard sized layout???
[05:31] <shuey> anyone ever setup an ssh server?
[05:31] <edwinkcw> b1lly, you got the segmentation fault when using ffmepg
[05:31] <Us3r_Unfriendly> b1lly: it should unless you chmod it to not
[05:31] <KB1JWQ> shuey: What's your real question?
[05:31] <folorn> okay spirals you still around?
[05:31] <shuey> I have it all setup, but I'm just wanting to make sure I have it secured
[05:32] <shuey> I modified my main config fine, but I am not sure about the keys
[05:32] <shuey> some of what I've read seems to say that you should copy your keys to your home dir (as if a copy NEEDS to be there)
[05:32] <b1lly> edwinkcw: the solution was to -ar 44100
[05:32] <ruan> how do i unmount a drive that is busy?
[05:32] <edwinkcw> b1lly, thanks
[05:32] <shuey> and some of what I read says you should generate keys, even though openssh generated them when it was first setup
[05:32] <ouyes> when you are in windows, you type o two times , you will go to a file named o....
[05:33] <shuey> am I supposed to generate a second set of keys?
[05:33] <ruan> the device is busy though im not running anyting off it :/
[05:33] <djsacrosanct> I love ubuntu so much better than fedora.
[05:33] <pfifo> ubuntu loves you back, but it likes it rough
[05:33] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: Uninstalling one and installing the other is pretty easy?
[05:34] <ruan> aaah i forgot the scripty
[05:34] <djsacrosanct> lolz
[05:34] <edwinkcw> djscrosanct: in what sense?
[05:34] <djsacrosanct> feels better
[05:34] <edwinkcw> djsacrosanct: just curious why you love Ubuntu more
[05:34] <edwinkcw> djsacrosanct: haha..the theme?
[05:35] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: i've been on unix for a while now so i'm pretty much all cli.  using the command line to do it is easy for me but not for a beginner
[05:35] <b1lly> guys, i appreciate all the help
[05:35] <b1lly> gunna hed to sleep tho
[05:35] <b1lly> ill catch you guys later
[05:35] <pfifo> shuey, is there anything specific your seeing that is throwing up a red flag?
[05:35] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: These are no harder then any other program to cleanly remove, even jerry rigged like you said it would be?
[05:36] <shuey> pfifo: I haven't tried connecting to it yet from another box outside my network, and I'm still going to need to....
[05:36] <cfedde> which movie editor is recommended these days?
[05:36] <shuey> oh... I think I might have just answered my own question, kinda :D... Here's a small preface:
[05:37] <shuey> I currently HAVE an ssh/proxy server (opensuse)
[05:37] <edwinkcw> how to fix copy and paste function in terminal. I install Ubuntu 10.10 remix on my netbook but I can't use ctrl shift C to copy content. Any advice?
[05:37] <shuey> and I use it from work so I can bypass their web filter
[05:37] <shuey> but a guy I used to hang out with set it all up for me
[05:37] <shuey> he's not around anymore and I wanted to replace it with an ubuntu box that I'm setting up myself from scratch
[05:38] <Us3r_Unfriendly> I like ubuntu but I wish for the love of god mark would work out more of the kinks of older releases than making new ones every 6 months.  Like:   sudo find ~/Videos/ -iname "*.avi" -exec cp -v "{}" /mnt/ ";"          takes forever than on windows...and believe me, I hate windows.  like simple things make me upset,  flash on 64, cp to external drives take a long time on a usb 2.0, and stuff like that.  we need to fix the old problem
[05:38] <shuey> I've always wanted to learn Linux but it was always hell every time I tried.  So I am forcing myself to learn it now by getting rid of my Windows pc
[05:38] <shuey> all I have now is this ubuntu box
[05:38] <truepurple>  Us3r_Unfriendly: These are jerry rigged flash programs are no harder then any other program to cleanly remove?
[05:38] <satya> ayecee: if i do update, some index files failed to download, they have been ignored or old ones used instead
[05:38] <shuey> I've been completely obsessed for the last four days tinkering around on it :D
[05:38] <shuey> but now I'm getting to the meat and potatoes of it
[05:39] <cylob> oh wow i see ubuntu switched back from banshee to rhythmbox. smart move cause banshee got a lil slow
[05:39] <jiltdil> how to compile Apache modules?
[05:39] <djsacrosanct> Anyone happen to know of a Christian server?
[05:39] <shuey> I want this box to be setup similarly to the way the previous one was: I want to use dual auth (a key file AND a password)
[05:40] <shuey> so I guess I will HAVE to generate another set of keys or at least one key that I set a password on.  But the keys part is very cryptic to me
[05:40] <shuey> rsa, dsa, pub, not pub, etc
[05:40] <jiltdil> How to compile Apache Modules?
[05:40] <Us3r_Unfriendly> truepurple: depends if dpkg will remove it or you'll have to physically get in there and rm it.  /var/log/ has alot of information in that directory of what you have installed and where the files go in the directory :P  fun fact
[05:41] <pfifo> shuey, your not really asking any specific questions, in general your ssh is not secure, nor is mine, nor is googles... everything can be hacked.
[05:43] <VE2EBP> >> I'm trying to copy stuff from my home directory on a USB ext HDD using nautilus... It won't copy some of the files telling me that I don't have read access... why is that?
[05:43] <shuey> pfifo: Sorry... let me try more... I have ssh installed and running.  I also have my config file completed.
[05:43] <Us3r_Unfriendly> VE2EBP: exactly my argument
[05:43] <Us3r_Unfriendly> VE2EBP: open a shell
[05:43] <shuey> The two things I'm wondering are: 1. What, if anything, do I need to do with the first set of keys that were auto created by installing openssh?
[05:44] <VE2EBP> a shell? What is that?
[05:44] <Us3r_Unfriendly> VE2EBP: terminal
[05:44] <arron_> "ctrl + alt + t"
[05:44] <Us3r_Unfriendly> VE2EBP: kshell
[05:44] <VE2EBP> oh ok and do a su -
[05:44] <VE2EBP> ?
[05:44] <bruski> I am trying to reactivate an old software RAID array.  I have all 5 discks plugged in, and can feel them vibrating, but when i run fdisk -l I only see two of the discks.  Is this a problem with the physical setup?
[05:44] <pfifo> shuey, ssh only uses 1 set of keys, you just generated a set of your own which wasnt really needed
[05:44] <shuey> 2. How do I create another key or set of keys that I can password protect, so that when I ssh to this network from outside, I will be prompted for both a keyfile and a password?
[05:44] <Us3r_Unfriendly> VE2EBP: no, no su
[05:44] <VE2EBP> do I have to use the cp command?
[05:44] <shuey> pfifo: I never generated another set.  All I have is the set that was auto created when the server was installed
[05:45] <Us3r_Unfriendly> VE2EBP: what's the directory of the files your trying to copy??  second paste you "sudo mount -l"  in a pastebin
[05:45] <Us3r_Unfriendly> *your
[05:45] <ouyes> checking for libssl... configure: error: Cannot find ssl libraries, but I installed that package
[05:45] <Us3r_Unfriendly> VE2EBP: yes you'll use cp but later
[05:45] <pfifo> shuey, openssl dosent work like that, it uses the keypairs to encrypt the socket, and then you give your system password for a normal login
[05:46] <shuey> openssl?  I said "openssh"
[05:46] <shuey> And if it doesn't work like that, or there's not an option to do it, then how did I have it working on the previous box?
[05:46] <pfifo> shuey, either way, all you need is one set of keys and so long as you dont give anyone your private key your all set
[05:46] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ssh ftw
[05:46] <VE2EBP> there's no way to just use nautilus in any way? Us3r_Unfriendly
[05:47] <Us3r_Unfriendly> VE2EBP: i private messaged you, i'll talk to you there
[05:47] <pfifo> shuey, openssl is the part of sshd that handles opening an encrypted connection to another computer
[05:47] <Us3r_Unfriendly> VE2EBP: well you could try "gksudo nautilus" too
[05:47] <VE2EBP> ok
[05:47] <ruan> <3 ntfsundelete
[05:48] <Us3r_Unfriendly> VE2EBP: the easy way
[05:48] <mrdeb> how do you enable flash acceleration? it's using 80% of a dual core cpu
[05:48] <VE2EBP> ok
[05:48] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: You got my private messages?
[05:48] <shuey> ok, I guess I'll do more research and keep tinkering with it
[05:48] <shuey> I have a second, new thing I'm trying to figure out as well.  I have no idea why, but everytime I login to my Ubuntu box, a gedit window opens with nothing in it
[05:49] <shuey> I checked my startup apps and there is nothing in there that looks like it would be tied to what's happening
[05:49] <shuey> so I'm not sure what's causing it
[05:49] <pfifo> shuey, you probbally had gedit open and logged out choosing to save the session, try closing everything and logout
[05:50] <shuey> I have... this still happens after closing all my apps and rebooting
[05:50] <shuey> and oddly enough, an empty gedit window is the ONLY thing that runs automatically after I've logged in
[05:50] <shuey> no other apps do
[05:51] <shuey> of course my tray indicators and stuff do, but I'm saying that gedit is the only windowed app that runs
[05:51] <pfifo> im not sure then, im not the gui type
[05:51] <sacarlson> how do you setup to apt-get source application  when the package I want is in ppa?  I have the ppa pokerth bin package for version 8.3 but when I installed apt-get source pokerth I get the 7.1 version, how do I get the new ppa version here?
[05:51] <JuNiOx> guys, is there a repository where I can find php 5.3.6?
[05:51] <ruan> !php
[05:51] <ruan> hmm
[05:52] <shuey> k
[05:52] <shuey> thx anyway
[05:52] <JuNiOx> just found php 5.3.2, but this one has a lot of bugs
[05:52] <SkrappJaw> how do I view the time stamps in Xchat.?
[05:53] <sacarlson> JuNiOx: maybe ppa
[05:53] <theperfecttaco> anyone know if the maverick version of cinelerra can be installed in natty?
[05:53] <JuNiOx> sacarlson: good tip, let me look for
[05:54] <NixDouche> There we go.

[05:55] <Xray1000> quick question?
[05:56] <NixDouche> Those using smuxi, how can I change the colour scheme?
[05:56] <pfifo> rww, looks like your making friends
[05:56] <L> test
[05:56] <truepurple> Only long questions here Xray, just kidding, please don't ask permission to ask a question, but go ahead and ask it
[05:56] <rww> pfifo: thanks for the highlight :)
[05:56] <Xray1000> Trying to install latest ubuntu on a comapc.  Made iso disk, i get the the red ubuntu screen, select language and then monitor goes to sleep.  CD rom continues to spin for another 30 seconds
[05:57] <Da|Mummy> :|
[05:57] <Xray1000> i've burned a couple of disks trying
[05:57] <Xray1000> same computer took an install of CentOS
[05:57] <navatwo> hmm typically I do not have problems, but for some reason my fresh kubuntu install on my netbook wont connect to my router. It states its connected but cannot locate any pages. I manually added it to the dchp table using the computers mac address (the router doesn't see it though)
[05:57] <haoyihuan> join #ubuntu-cn
[05:58] <truepurple> Xray1000: Got a USB drive? You could use that without worrying about coaster making if you fail
[05:58] <Xray1000> yeah, i've got a 4 gig usb drive
[05:58] <Xray1000> big enough?
[05:58] <Xray1000>  :)
[05:58] <truepurple> And the install PC can boot from usb flash drive?
[05:58] <Xray1000> that i will have to check...
[05:59] <truepurple> big enough
[05:59] <sacarlson> I think I found the missing part in my /etc/apt/sources.list with the needed line: deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/pkg-games/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
[05:59] <Xray1000> should be a boot option in the bois, i would imagine
[05:59] <navatwo> Xray1000: you'll probably have to modify bios
[05:59] <navatwo> ninja'd :(
[05:59] <edwinkcw> !lastest
[05:59] <truepurple> yes, but you may not see the option if the USB flash drive is not connected
[05:59] <edwinkcw> !latest
[06:00] <Xray1000> i'll connect the drive first.  Hopefully this will work!  Thanks :)
[06:00] <truepurple> Xray1000: And it is possible you may need to flash the bios, no I don't mean get naked in front of it
[06:00] <Xray1000> awe...there went my nights fun :)
[06:00] <theperfecttaco> anyone know if the maverick version of cinelerra video editor can be installed in natty?
[06:00] <Xray1000> thanks all

[06:01] <truepurple> Us3r_Unfriendly: Where did you go? I thought you were going to tell me how to install flash
[06:01] <navatwo> truepurple: `sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree`
[06:02] <truepurple> navatwo: No good
[06:02] <Guest98589> anyone know how to register a new nick?
[06:02] <navatwo> truepurple: download it manually and put it in your browsers library/plugins folder
[06:02] <truepurple> Navatwo: I tried that, It installed... something, but I didn't have flash
[06:02] <Guest98589> sorry for the new ass question but it's been a while
[06:02] <BabyGirl> can i use mplayer as mi default movie player,,avery time i click it opens banshee
[06:03] <pfifo> Guest98589, type /msg nickserv help
[06:03] <truepurple> Navatwo How do you navigate directories within ubuntu desktop?
[06:03] <coreyfro> Hey all.  DHCLIENT or DHCPCD question.  For the life of me, I can not get either of these clients to request option 252 from my DHCP server.  How do I get either of these tools to honor this value from my DHCP server?
[06:04] <navatwo> truepurple: I'm not sure I understand your question
[06:04] <SkrappJaw> _redpanther_: got it. thanks.
[06:04] <navatwo> At the top, places -> root
[06:04] <sheena1> Just wanted to pop in and say thanks for all the help last night from ActionParsnip and a coupel other users. This group is always good for some help!
[06:04] <navatwo> (im on kubuntu right now, so i'm not sure the exact placement of icons)
[06:04] <syrinx_>  :)
[06:04] <truepurple> navatwo: How do I go the base directory of a drive, or to a particular folder, or make a particular folder?
[06:05] <syrinx_> sheena1: don't be a stranger
[06:05] <navatwo> hmm typically I do not have problems, but for some reason my fresh kubuntu install on my netbook wont connect to my router. It states its connected but cannot locate any pages. I manually added it to the dchp table using the computers mac address (the router doesn't see it though)
[06:05] <Guest98589> use /nick <Kensho>
[06:05] <Guest98589> damn
[06:05] <navatwo> truepurple: you use the program called nautilus
[06:05] <navatwo> there is a `places` designation at the top panel, move your mouse there and click
[06:05] <histo> navatwo: is it connecting via wifi?
[06:05] <navatwo> then you will see the different folders
[06:05] <sheena1> thanks syrinx_. I'm so thrilled. I'm a relatively new user, and after the help I got last night didn't work, I just reinstalled the OS (my /home is a separate partition). 15 minutes to useable, 30 minutes to almost-exactly-how-it-was.. though apparently they don't make DarkRoom theme anymore!
[06:06] <navatwo> histo: it says its connected
[06:06] <histo> navatwo: is it wifi?
[06:06] <navatwo> the router assigns it the ip
[06:06] <navatwo> yes
[06:06] <navatwo> sorry
[06:06] <histo> navatwo: i've seen that with some of the broadcom cards if you don't have the firmware
[06:06] <truepurple> navatwo: Then what?
[06:06] <pfifo> coreyfro, I dont think that will ever be supported in linux
[06:06] <navatwo> truepurple: what browser?
[06:06] <navatwo> histo: it was working with meego prior to this install.
[06:06] <truepurple> firefox
[06:07] <navatwo> I thought it might be the wireless type, but I switched that too
[06:07] <histo> navatwo: go to system > admin > hardware drivers
[06:07] <navatwo> truepurple: navigate to /usr/lib/mozilla
[06:08] <truepurple> navatwo: How?
[06:08] <navatwo> truepurple: On the left hand side you should see a "/" folder, or "root"
[06:08] <coreyfro> pfifo: why wouldn't it be?
[06:09] <coreyfro> pfifo: I want to understand why
[06:09] <truepurple> left hand side of what?
[06:09] <navatwo> the nautilus window
[06:09] <navatwo> histo: I'm running under KDE, what did you want to run?
[06:09] <truepurple> navatwo: I don't see any "nautilus"
[06:10] <navatwo> its the file browser.
[06:10] <truepurple> navatwo: Ok, but where is it?
[06:10] <pfifo> coreyfro, most applications dont even respect the http-proxy enviroment variable, so getting them to use dhcpcd 252 would be even harder. I suspect that this stems from microsoft doing things so differently from linux.
[06:11] <navatwo> truepurple: Pardon? I do not understand.. do you have a file browser open?
[06:11] <truepurple> navatwo: I don't know, I don't think so
[06:11] <histo> navatwo: the restricted drivers manager
[06:12] <navatwo> histo: ah. I can't connect to the internet though, to download them
[06:12] <coreyfro> pfifo: crap.
[06:12] <histo> navatwo: lspci and see what chipset you have on the card?
[06:12] <pfifo> coreyfro, what your trying todo is more approprate for a NAT server's iptables config
[06:13] <coreyfro> pfifo: OK, I'll look into it
[06:13] <Kensho> REGISTER <testingpassword>
[06:13] <Kensho> hmm
[06:14] <Kensho> little help here
[06:14] <pfifo> coreyfro, or on a larger scale, net booting diskless nodes with proxy info set in the filesystem server
[06:14] <navatwo> histo: the additional drivers app wont open
[06:14] <truepurple> navatwo: So how do I open a file browser?
[06:14] <histo> navatwo: then do lspci
[06:15] <histo> truepurple: alt+F2 type in nautilus
[06:15] <navatwo> histo: atheros AR9285
[06:15] <histo> navatwo: hrm.. believe that card should work out of the box
[06:15] <coreyfro> pfifo: I'm just trying to force people to go through proxy because I am 14,000 feet away from my DSL station
[06:16] <truepurple> histo How do I make that a shortcut?
[06:16] <navatwo> histo: same!
[06:16] <navatwo> although
[06:16] <coreyfro> so iptables is a prefered method for transperent proxy?
[06:16] <histo> truepurple: it already is places > home or something
[06:16] <navatwo> during installation, I chose `detect` rather than `all`
[06:16] <pfifo> coreyfro, that dosent really make any sense
[06:16] <histo> navatwo: ahh you need linux-backports-modules-wireless-maverick-generic
[06:16] <Delphian> hello?
[06:16] <truepurple> histo how about as a shortcut on desktop?
[06:16] <histo> navatwo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Atheros/AR9285
[06:17] <histo> truepurple: right click on desktop and create launcher
[06:17] <navatwo> You don't seem to be running Ubuntu <- histo
[06:18] <coreyfro> Well, using a firewall is a prefered method of making proxy transperent to a user.
[06:18] <coreyfro> redirection
[06:18] <truepurple> histo then what?
[06:18] <histo> truepurple: add nautilus as the commandd
[06:18] <pfifo> coreyfro, you shouldnt be forcing anyone to go through a proxy outside of your home network, thats impossible. On your internal network, all users will automatically go through your NAT box.
[06:19] <pfifo> coreyfro, and your NAT can be configured to use a proxy
[06:19] <truepurple> histo That it? Is there a way to pick it somewhere? I don't see apps, places etc as something to navigate through there
[06:19] <dualcore> how can you launch chrome via the terminal to a certain url
[06:20] <histo> truepurple: what are you running gnome?
[06:20] <truepurple> yes
[06:20] <truepurple> AFAIK anyway
[06:20] <landingonwater> cant install enlightenment. is there a way ?
[06:20] <histo> truepurple: well then up at the top you have applications places system  right?
[06:20] <truepurple> yes
[06:20] <navatwo> dualcore: chromium -u "URL"
[06:20] <navatwo> I think at least..
[06:20] <abstrakt> landingonwater, define "can't"
[06:20] <histo> truepurple: well if you want to open nautilus normally you would click places > then a pick an item.
[06:21] <[thor]> dualcore: might be "google-chrome http://example.com/index.html"
[06:21] <landingonwater> abstrakt: im on ubuntu 10.10. tried sudo apt-get install enlightenment. wont work.
[06:21] <histo> truepurple: if you want to create a launcher. Right click on desktop. Pick a title for the launcher then int he command type in nautilus. Choose and icon and hit okay
[06:21] <dualcore> command not found
[06:21] <[thor]> dualcore: mine, or navatwo's?
[06:21] <dualcore> [thor]: yours
[06:21] <landingonwater> abstrakt: am i missing a repository ?
[06:22] <dualcore> [thor]: whoops i mean navatwo
[06:22] <abstrakt> landingonwater, how bout open up synaptic or aptitude and find out what the *actual* package name is
[06:22] <truepurple> histo How would I get that quick launch to have it start out at a particular folder?
[06:22] <histo> truepurple: idk try nautilus /path/to/folder    as the command
[06:23] <truepurple> histo: But navigating nautilus, I don't see any folder paths
[06:24] <histo> truepurple: what?
[06:24] <landingonwater> abstrakt: in synaptic now
[06:24] <orly_owl> What program will make the ipod database?
[06:25] <landingonwater> abstrakt: no result for enlightenment.
[06:25] <histo> truepurple: when you click on each folder you are enterring the path example /home/truepurple/Downloads   etc...
[06:25] <histo> truepurple: try hitting ctrl+l in nautilus
[06:25] <jiltdil> i have some images on a directory how to see it via termianl?
[06:26] <abstrakt> landingonwater, actually there's lots of results
[06:26] <truepurple> histo How do I make it so that is always up?
[06:26] <abstrakt> landingonwater, maybe you need to http://gog.is/enlightenment/window/manager
[06:26] <server_> h
[06:27] <histo> truepurple: don't know, I don't have nautilus installed to see the settings for it.  Or you can poke around in gconf-editor
[06:27] <aktor> can anyone recommend a good desktop search tool, something that can index .pdf files inside .rar archives ?
[06:27] <pfifo> jiltdil, the terminal isnt made for graphics
[06:27] <histo> aktor: what about google desktop?  Not sure if it will go inside of rar's though
[06:27] <truepurple> histo: I probably couldn't poke around in there, too novice
[06:27] <jiltdil> pfifio:ok
[06:27] <histo> truepurple: sure you can, once it's oopen look in apps > nautilus
[06:27] <aktor> histo: busy checking it out but it does not seem to go into archives
[06:28] <dBugSlayer> Hi, How do I install libstdcxx python module? I'm trying to import libstdcxx through gdb's python runtime, on Maverick but I seem to be missing such module.
[06:28] <orly_owl> What program will make the ipod database?
[06:28] <landingonwater> abstrakt: aah.. darn.. sometimes they made It easy :D always surprises me. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=97199&highlight=E17+cvs
[06:28] <histo> dBugSlayer: did you try searching for it in the repos?
[06:29] <SITZ> !automount
[06:29] <truepurple> histo: I don't see a "apps"
[06:29] <dBugSlayer> histo: I googled around but couldn't find it.
[06:29] <spirals> I need a utility that can read "dbpf" format binary archives like from the Sims, SimCity, etc. All of the .net and Java tools I've found to do it don't run (on Wine or current Java, respectively). Any suggestions?
[06:29] <landingonwater> abstrakt: I used enlightenment on Debian sarge many years ago. and I just remeber It was pretty much up hill :D
[06:29] <Sleaker> I've got a crontab configuration question.  I'm using root, to run something every hour, but I was wondering how to get it to run the command in a visible window and not hidden for any user that's logged in.
[06:29] <dBugSlayer> histo: I have libstdc++ 6 installed, but the module is missing
[06:30] <landingonwater> abstrakt: thanks ;)
[06:30] <histo> truepurple: I don't know look around in gconf
[06:30] <pfifo> spirals, hexdump will read it ;)
[06:30] <truepurple> histo: I don't know how to get to this gconf, but lets skip that, how do I install flash now?
[06:30] <Sleaker> DO I change it from default behavior in Gnome-schedule; to X-Application?
[06:30] <histo> truepurple: in gconf-editor apps > nautilus > preferences > check the box always_use_location_entry
[06:30] <dBugSlayer> histo: I'm not sure where to look, aside from googling around
[06:31] <landingonwater> abstrakt: and its named e17 in synaptic :S sorry for taking your time
[06:31] <histo> truepurple: hit alt+F2 and type in gconf-editor
[06:31] <histo> dBugSlayer: sudo aptitude search -d libstdc++
[06:31] <spirals> pfifo: so will bvi/bmore, but there's an offset, etc and I can't just get the data I need out (xml in the binary)
[06:31] <truepurple> histo If I check always use location entry, can I undo it latter?
[06:32] <histo> dBugSlayer: or just sudo apt-cache search libstdc++
[06:32] <histo> truepurple: yes
[06:32] <pfifo> spirals, .net is made to be run in mono, did you try that?
[06:32] <Sleaker> Anyone familiar with the crontab question?
[06:32] <histo> truepurple: you would just uncheck it later
[06:32] <spirals> pfifo, DBPF is a somewhat known archive format so I'm just hoping to find a tool that will run on linux
[06:32] <truepurple> histo: I mean can I have it set to always, and temporarily get the other display?
[06:32] <histo> truepurple: yeah if you het ctrl+l again it should get rid of it.
[06:32] <dBugSlayer> histo: I looked at the packages in Synaptic. Will that return a different list?
[06:32] <histo> !flash > truepurple
[06:33] <histo> dBugSlayer: nope should be the same
[06:33] <dBugSlayer> histo: I did search with apt-cache.
[06:33] <spirals> pfifo, i've tried installing the actual .net versions that the apps depend on, through wine (1.1 and 2, different apps) - even fixed bugs in the current 10.10 winetricks to get .net to install - still the apps don't work, they are crapware ;)
[06:33] <root_> help
[06:33] <dBugSlayer> histo: and checked the synaptic package manager.
[06:33] <root_> my live cd of backtrack 4 wont finnish installin
[06:33] <spirals> pfifo, SimPE and SporeEdit respectively were the .net apps
[06:33] <dBugSlayer> histo: but I can't understand why the modules are missing since libstdc++ 6 is installed, according to the pkg mgr
[06:33] <histo> dBugSlayer: there are tons of packages related to libstdc++ then
[06:34] <root_> my live cd of backtrack 4 wont finnish installin
[06:34] <root_> my live cd of backtrack 4 wont finnish installin
[06:34] <histo> !ot | root_____
[06:34] <histo> dBugSlayer: what are you trying to install or get working that it depends on libstdc++?
[06:34] <pfifo> spirals, I dont know of any such app for linux, have youu thought about making your own?
[06:34] <truepurple> histo the problem is though, I will likely forget how to undo this, I would normally record such things in a text file or something, but I don't know how to make them
[06:34] <dBugSlayer> I'm trying to use gdb's pretty printers
[06:35] <dBugSlayer> histo: and for that, I need the libstdcxx module in /usr/share/gdb/python/, which doesn' t exist.
[06:36] <spirals> pfifo, i lack the hex editor chops to make that practical
[06:36] <histo> truepurple: just make a note
[06:36] <dBugSlayer> histo: and since I have libstdc++6 installed, now I'm trying to figure out what package I may be missing in order for that to get installed
[06:36] <histo> truepurple: open a terminal
[06:36] <histo> truepurple: applications > accesories > terminal
[06:36] <histo> truepurple: and gedit notes.txt
[06:36] <firefly2442> I put in a new Nvidia card in my computer and now xorg doesn't want to load, when I run the nvidia graphics settings GUI, it says that I'm not using the Nvidia X driver and to run nvidia-xconfig, but after running this, it doesn't help
[06:36] <histo> then add your notes there. Or you can hit alt+F2 and type in gedit notes.txt
[06:37] <truepurple> Eh, but if I forget the name of the file, id like to have a graphical list of them to see and quickly click
[06:37] <Sleaker> how do I change a crontab command to display the terminal it's running the command in rather than running hidden?
[06:37] <firefly2442> I've also tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, but that doesn't help
[06:37] <histo> dBugSlayer: maybe it needs a different version of libstdc++ ?  or a older version of python?  Hard to tell.
[06:37] <histo> truepurple: well there is tomboy notes
[06:38] <jiltdil> pfifo:gnome-open image.jpg work also mirage /path/to/image works but mirage gives some hash error can you please see and help me
[06:38] <truepurple> A program to install?
[06:38] <histo> truepurple: believe it maybe installed by default can't remember
[06:38] <histo> truepurple: try running tomboy
[06:39] <justin__> Hello friends, new linux user here, trying to get apache up and running and i seem to have hit a snag. Anyone have some knowledge in the area?
[06:39] <nathic> my computer crashes afer kde splash screen.. well at least theres a message "no signal" on my screen.  I tried pressing "shift"  to get the grub menu and edited the part  quite screen  to nomodset now i can choose from the recovery menu .. but somehow everything I do ends up with just the same thing...
[06:39] <tmbg> attempting http://tuxtweaks.com/2008/08/how-to-control-fan-speeds-in-ubuntu/ on a dell, but it has no PWM controller. just a high/low settings I guess.
[06:39] <histo> !ask | justin__
[06:39] <tmbg> is there a way I can manually set it to low speed?
[06:39] <pfifo> jiltdil, those are gui programs, your just invoking them from a terminal, if thats what your doing try 'eog /path/to/file.jpg'
[06:40] <Fran_Drescher> I want 1280x960 to show up in MONITOR SETTINGS rather than 1280x1024 which isn't 4:3.. it's the wrong aspect ratio. What do? I'm super duper n00b
[06:40] <nathic> might there be a problem with my video card?
[06:40] <Sleaker> justin_; mhmmm for me it was as simple as installing the proper packagers via the Synaptic Package Manager
[06:40] <justin__> histo, my apologies, I'm not even sure what I was thinking. Straight to the point though, it doesn't start up right away and when I try to start it via terminal it says "/usr/sbin/apachectl: 148: /usr/sbin/apache2: not found"
[06:40] <justin__> I thought it'd be a common problem, but my googling gave m little useful information.
[06:41] <jiltdil> pfifo:ok but is there a way to open it in terminal
[06:41] <Sleaker> justin_ did you install via Package manager?
[06:42] <nathic> is it possible to backup files from root shell?
[06:42] <justin__> Sleaker, I installed via apt get.
[06:42] <Sleaker> on ubuntu?
[06:42] <justin__> Yessir. Ubunut 10.10.
[06:42] <Sleaker> kk well I installed all the stuff via Synaptic Package Manager and it setup properly.
[06:42] <justin__> Sleaker, what should I search for to find it there?
[06:43] <pfifo> jiltdil, no, a terminal cannot ever display graphical data, its only made for character display.
[06:43] <Sleaker> "apache2"
[06:43] <justin__> That "2" makes all the difference. XD
[06:44] <Sleaker> if it doesn't also check these you'll want them: apache2.2-bin, apache2.2-common
[06:44] <Sleaker> also you'll most likely want php
[06:44] <Sleaker> so
[06:44] <justin__> I only want it for its server capabilities, no php for me this time around.
[06:44] <jiltdil> pfifo:thanx
[06:44] <Sleaker> not going to be running php on your webserver?
[06:45] <Sleaker> libapache2-mod-php5
[06:45] <justin__> Sleaker, it's just a a little personal thing I'll be using to share files.
[06:45] <Sleaker> unless you wont be having php on your webserver.. which seems odd.
[06:45] <OrangePeel> How do I use 7zip on Ubuntu
[06:46] <Sleaker> if you're using it for a fileserver don't use apache httpd
[06:46] <Sleaker> use ftp
[06:46] <NixDouche> How can I get webcam to work for MSN on ubuntu?
[06:46] <NixDouche> Do any of the replacement programs support it?
[06:46] <justin__> Sleaker, thanks for the suggestion, what would you suggest I download?
[06:46] <Sleaker> there's a myriad of ftp servers.
[06:47] <Sleaker> I haven't installed one yet as I don't serve files.
[06:47] <justin__> I'll look one up. Thanks for the suggestion. Easier to setup, I'd hope?
[06:47] <Sleaker> "ftpd" looks like the standard though
[06:47] <Sleaker> much easier
[06:47] <Guest> I want 1280x960 to show up in MONITOR SETTINGS rather than 1280x1024 which isn't 4:3.. it's the wrong aspect ratio. What do? I'm super duper n00b
[06:47] <justin__> I remember setting up apache awhile back and it went pretty painlessly, this time it's just being...unruly.
[06:47] <OrangePeel> How do I use 7zip on Ubuntu
[06:48] <Sleaker> justin_ prob cause you used apt-get instead of package manager ;p
[06:48] <justin__> I used apt-get last time. :)
[06:48] <pfifo> OrangePeel, install 7z and then read its man page for usage instructions
[06:48] <dBugSlayer> histo: can you check if you have this file? /usr/share/gdb/python/libstdcxx/v6/printers.py
[06:51] <histo> dBugSlayer: nope don't have gdb even.
[06:52] <pfifo> has anyone seen a red swingline stapler laying around? it disappeared off the top of my desk a few days ago...
[06:52] <dBugSlayer> histo: thanks
[06:53] <ljsoftnet> hi people
[06:53] <justin__> Sleaker, it appears that ftpd will work without problem (after I configure my router).
[06:53] <histo> dBugSlayer: np sorry I couldnt' help more
[06:53] <Sleaker> justin_ mhmm, I noticed the ftpd notes say to use one of the other 'better' tools
[06:54] <Sleaker> it's recommended to use vsftpd, proftpd, or pure-ftpd instead of the standard ftpd.
[06:54] <Sleaker> ftpd standard doesn't use ssl, so passwords are sent via plaintext
[06:55] <Sleaker> anyone that uses tcpdump on the ftp packets will be able to get the passwords.
[06:55] <Sleaker> so it's seen as unsecure.
[06:55] <Sleaker> better to use a server that supports ssl.
[06:55] <Sleaker> ftpd-ssl is the standard one with it, or the other ones that are recommended should also.
[06:56] <truepurple> Anyone here have any special instructions for installing flash on ubuntu 10.10 64 bit?
[06:56] <loulinkj7> hi has anyone had the issue that removing the  "-i" flag from the halt command in the  halt.sh or reboot.sh scripts doesn't allow their ubuntu machine to be wol'ed?
[06:57] <grindcrusher> truepurple, open synaptic and check "flashplugin-installer", that works for me
[06:57] <Sleaker> truepurple, Ubuntu Software Center -> Canonical Partners -> flash
[06:58] <NixDouche> Seems none of the MSN clients support webcam with the new MSN version.
[06:58] <NixDouche> Annoying.
[06:58] <Sleaker> or just search flash in provided by ubuntu for the Mozilla plugin
[06:58] <loulinkj7> wol stands for wake on lan
[06:58] <truepurple> grindcrusher How do I open this synpatic?
[06:58] <justin__> sleaker, I'll look into it. pure-ftpd seeps more popular nayway.
[06:59] <zee313> Is there C language compiler present with GUI?
[06:59] <Sleaker> truepurple, System -> ADministration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[06:59] <pfifo> Sleaker, that is irelevant as most  ftp clients dont support ssl either... justin__ if your making an anonymous ftp then ftpd is fine, it you are going to have logins then vsftpd,pureftpd,cuteftpd will atleast allow your users the option of having a secure connection
[06:59] <grindcrusher> system->administration->synaptic package manager
[06:59] <grindcrusher> bah too slow
[07:00] <truepurple> I can't open synpatics, it wants a root password thingy and I havent set up that yet, I don't know how
[07:00] <justin__> pfifo, thank you for your input. I will probably go with pureftp, but only because it seems more common.
[07:00] <grindcrusher> use your password
[07:00] <grindcrusher> sudo
[07:00] <spirals> pfifo, http://bit.ly/f2Qm5m for an idea of what i'm trying to do... i think a horrible bash wrapper on hexdump might do it... I dunno
[07:01] <grindcrusher> truepurple, when it opens search for 'flash' and scroll down
[07:01] <spirals> pfifo, also http://bit.ly/icd1Qh
[07:01] <pfifo> spirals, i'm a c programmer and I always hack my games. writing my own scripts todo it is the fun part.
[07:02] <dBugSlayer> histo: It's ok. At least you tried. :) I'll keep looking
[07:02] <dBugSlayer> histo: thanks though!
[07:02] <histo> dBugSlayer: np
[07:02] <ljsoftnet> pfifo do you hack online games?
[07:02] <pfifo> ljsoftnet, no im not a cheater
[07:02] <truepurple> grindcrusher it rejects the password I use to login, like before
[07:02] <ljsoftnet> pfifo ah ok
[07:03] <grindcrusher> truepurple, you have other issues then
[07:03] <spirals> pfifo, yeah I was going top speed until i ran into this binary format. seems like no one cares to do it on linux because there are so many windows tools, and the games are windows native. square peg round hole.
[07:04] <DaPenguin> sorry, just got here, what are you trying to do? disassemble something?
[07:04] <truepurple> grindcrusher I am told I need to go in and establish a password for the root or adminstration or whatever, but I don't know how to do that
[07:04] <Danielcg25> Are there any +'s to overclocking RAM?
[07:05] <DaPenguin> Danielcg25, faster read/write
[07:05] <pfifo> Danielcg25, shorter ram life which means you get to upgrade sooner
[07:05] <spirals> DaPenguin, I'm trying to read "DBPF" format binary archives as used by EA for Sims/SimCity/Spore. All the tools are horrible piles of .NET and Java and won't run on modern java or Wine .net
[07:05] <DaPenguin> that too lol
[07:05] <dBugSlayer> histo: is there another ubuntu channel where people may be more familiar with gdb on ubuntu?
[07:05] <Guest> I want 1280x960 to show up in MONITOR SETTINGS rather than 1280x1024 which isn't 4:3.. it's the wrong aspect ratio. What do? I'm super duper n00b
[07:06] <spirals> DaPenguin, the format of DBPF is known so I could in theory write the tool myself, but was hoping someone else had done it already ;)
[07:06] <grindcrusher> truepurple, do you log in with a password at all?
[07:06] <histo> dBugSlayer: maybe one of the dev channels
[07:06] <zee313> C language compiler for execution of C language codes???
[07:06] <DaPenguin> spirals, well, you could try loading them up in a hex editor, or seeing if they will disassemble like an executable (doubtful)
[07:06] <histo> dBugSlayer: or #gdb  would be a start
[07:06] <DaPenguin> !gcc | zee313
[07:07] <pfifo> dBugSlayer, im good with gdb, but your python part is throwing me off. If i understand this your trying to install a python module via an approved ubuntu method... why not just install it manually?
[07:07] <truepurple> grindcrusher: Yes
[07:07] <spirals> DaPenguin, yeah I've been able to follow along with the format docs using "hexdump" (thanks pfifo), but it's pretty grueling. my ultimate object is to be able to parse thousands of archives
[07:08] <DaPenguin> spirals, well, if you know the format you could in theory script it
[07:08] <grindcrusher> truepurple, then that password should work, if not, I don't know where to direct you, maybe someone else does
[07:08] <spirals> DaPenguin, that's what I just told pfifo yeah. Big ugly bash script to the rescue. :)
[07:08] <DaPenguin> spirals, lol
[07:08] <dBugSlayer> histo: I already went on #gdb, got some pointers, but hit a dead end as well.
[07:09] <pfifo> spirals, anything less than an fopen(3) will not satisfy me
[07:09] <dBugSlayer> pfifo: I'm trying to use gdb's pretty printer.
[07:09] <rypervenche> I used to use the locale zh_TW (Traditional Chinese), but have switched to English. However the Chinese characters now use a very ugly font. How can I change the default font that is used for the Chinese characters while I'm using the English locale?
[07:09] <pfifo> dBugSlayer, well as for another channel, you can try #python or #gdb
[07:10] <mcl0vin> can someone please explain to me why i can't ping outside my LAN http://inetpro.org/pastebin/10898
[07:10] <dBugSlayer> pfifo: What I understand so far is that I'm missing /usr/share/gdb/python/libstdcxx/v6/printers.py
[07:10] <spirals> pfifo, i have the platter out and my electron microscope is heating up. this binary stored XML *will* be parsed!
[07:10] <dBugSlayer> pfifo: do you happen to have this file?
[07:11] <tmbg> attempting http://tuxtweaks.com/2008/08/how-to-control-fan-speeds-in-ubuntu/ on a dell, but it has no PWM controller. just a high/low settings I guess.  Is there a way I can manually set it to the low speed?
[07:11] <pfifo> dBugSlayer, google should have it, ive had alot of luck finding missing py files for blender
[07:12] <dBugSlayer> pfifo: I've been googling for a while now. I guess I'll keep looking.
[07:12] <dBugSlayer> pfifo: could you try something real quick for me?
[07:12] <pfifo> dBugSlayer, ok
[07:13] <dBugSlayer> pfifo: execute this on gdb: python import gdb.libstdcxx
[07:13] <dBugSlayer> pfifo: and see if whether you get an ImportError
[07:14] <pfifo> dBugSlayer, ImportError: No module named libstdcxx
[07:15] <dBugSlayer> pfifo: are you running Ubuntu 10.10?
[07:15] <pfifo> dBugSlayer, yeah 10.10 and I have tons of developer stuff setup
[07:16] <truepurple> Can someone help me install flash please?
[07:16] <Logan_> !flash | truepurple
[07:17] <dBugSlayer> pfifo: for whatever reason this module is not installed. I just cloned gdb's repo with the hopes I'll find something in there that will help me figure this out
[07:17] <grindcrusher> truepurple, you need to solve that password issue first
[07:17] <mcl0vin> can someone please explain to me why i can't ping outside my LAN http://inetpro.org/pastebin/10898
[07:18] <dBugSlayer> pfifo: and you also have libstdc++ 6 installed, correct?
[07:18] <truepurple> grindcrusher: I need to establish a password for that administrator side or something, but you don't seem to know anything about that. Anyway other methods don't require that
[07:18] <Uphillarnie> morning all
[07:18] <truepurple> Hi
[07:19] <Uphillarnie> quick question
[07:19] <Peddy> pfifo, just thought I'd let you know that the Ubuntu desktop CD does not actually support full encryption - only the alternate install CD does.
[07:19] <pfifo> dBugSlayer, lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2010-11-13 11:58 /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 -> libstdc++.so.6.0.14
[07:19] <Uphillarnie> is there a way to have users on the same computer have person specific menus?
[07:19] <pfifo> Peddy, I could have sworn Ive seen it.
[07:19] <pfifo> Peddy, sorry
[07:20] <truepurple> Can anyone help me with installing flash?
[07:20] <Peddy> pfifo, no problem - just for your future reference. I just booted into it myself to confirm, it's nowhere, and further googling confirmed this. Downloading alternate install CD now
[07:20] <dBugSlayer> pfifo: what about /usr/share/gdb/python/libstdcxx/v6/printers.py?
[07:21] <Peddy> pfifo, regardless, it should definitely be included as an option, as shown here: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/22860/
[07:21] <pfifo> dBugSlayer, no, i dont like python so i only have minimal python related stuff
[07:21] <dBugSlayer> pfifo: k
[07:22] <pfifo> Peddy, not a bad idea
[07:23] <hsn_> !czech irc
[07:23] <Guest> I want 1280x960 to show up in MONITOR SETTINGS rather than 1280x1024 which isn't 4:3.. it's the wrong aspect ratio. What do I do?
[07:24] <rypervenche> I used to use the locale zh_TW (Traditional Chinese), but have switched to English. However the Chinese characters now use a very ugly font. How can I change the default font that is used for the Chinese characters while I'm using the English locale?
[07:24] <Logan_> !cz | hsn_
[07:25] <pfifo> rypervenche, the default font for what?
[07:26] <rypervenche> pfifo: When I see Chinese characters now, it uses a different font. How can I change the font of the Chinese characters? I can't do it in the font/appearance menu because changing the default font to a Chinese one will affect my English font as well.
[07:26] <Frozt> quick question, network bridge howto?
[07:27] <jiltdil> how to create my own QR code?
[07:27] <Logan_> jiltdil: http://qrcode.kaywa.com/
[07:27] <histo> Frozt: what areyou trying to share internet?
[07:27] <Frozt> wireless to wired
[07:27] <histo> !ics > Frozt
[07:27] <jiltdil> logan:thanx
[07:27] <pfifo> rypervenche, well you cant have 2 different fonts in use, you will have to find a font that displays both the way you like
[07:28] <Logan_> jiltdil: you're welcome
[07:28] <histo> jiltdil: http://createqrcode.appspot.com/
[07:28] <jiltdil> histo:thanx
[07:28] <rypervenche> pfifo: But I can. I know it's possible. I need to change the default Chinese font to the one of my choosing. But I'm not sure how it's done.
[07:28] <jiltdil> logan:histo:but i want to crete it via command
[07:28] <Frozt> um, ubottu I don't see any private messages
[07:29] <Logan_> !info qrencode | jiltdil
[07:30] <pfifo> rypervenche,  if you can, i have no idea how, ive never seen an option like that
[07:30] <jiltdil> logan:thanx
[07:30] <Logan_> jiltdil: you're welcome
[07:31] <bruce_> Can anyone here give me a hint as to how to add an appl to the launch bar on the left side, using the latest NetBook dist on an AspireOne.
[07:32] <bruce_> I am not new to Ubuntu, but after looking all over for the process, still do not find it.
[07:32] <bruce_> I am new to netbook.
[07:33] <histo> bruce_: what a apple logo?
[07:33] <Ciocc> hi can someone tell me if cheese is included on the 10.04 lts live cd?
[07:33] <bruce_> a picture of a fruit wqith a bite taken out of it ?
[07:33] <bruce_> with
[07:33] <Poisonfibre> third edition ?
[07:33] <Logan_> histo: I think he meant application
[07:34] <histo> bruce_: What replace the ubuntu logo?
[07:34] <bruce_> Ubu logo in the top left corner...
[07:34] <Logan_> Ciocc: I believe so, but if not, you can always install it via sudo apt-get install cheese
[07:35] <bruce_> left click on it brings up a menu of basic categories fo appls
[07:35] <bruce_> right click on the Ubu logo does nothing..
[07:35] <Ciocc> Logan_: bit difficult to do that on a cd
[07:35] <Logan_> Ciocc: lol, I meant once you install it
[07:35] <histo> bruce_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/QuickTips#Tip # 2 Change Ubuntu Logo to Another image on Panel
[07:36] <Ciocc> Logan_: I want to use the disc for tech support and the guy I'm helping has a web cam issue
[07:36] <Logan_> Ciocc: ok - you'd have to ask someone else whether it is included on that live CD
[07:36] <Logan_> I believe it is, but I am not positive
[07:36] <dualcore> does anyone know if mac os x can read an etc4 partition?
[07:37] <Ciocc> Logan_: 10.10 would do but as I wont be using it alot I would prefer the lts
[07:37] <pfifo> Ciocc, you are allowed to use apt-get on the livecd to install stuff, it will use a ramdisk to store the files, and on reboot youll have to reinstall it the next time you reboot
[07:37] <Jordan_U> Ciocc: Cheese is included in the LiveCD, *and* you can install packages with apt-get in the LiveCD environment. They are installed in RAM.
[07:37] <Logan_> dualcore: please join ##mac for Mac support
[07:37] <Ciocc> Jordan_U: awesome news thankyou
[07:37] <Jordan_U> Ciocc: You're welcome.
[07:37] <Ciocc> I never realised you could apt-get install stuff when running in live mode that is awesome
[07:37] <inslan4>  i'm using ubuntu 10.10, i keep having problems with my mouse, i can move the cursor but can't click on anything?
[07:37] <bruce_> left click on the Ubu logo, brought up category appl view, searched for rosegarden, right click on RG icon does nada, left click starts appl...  not draggable to bar.
[07:38] <inslan4> i've tried 2 different mouse and the same thing happens
[07:39] <pfifo> inslan4, all i can really hint at is to makesure mouse keys is off in the mouse settings applet
[07:39] <inslan4> i reboot and the mouse works again but after a while i can't click on anything again
[07:39] <bruce_> possible to REMOVE appl from launcher by right click then 'remove', but no selection to ADD appl to launcher.
[07:39] <Logan_> bruce_: are you talking about applications or the Apple logo?
[07:41] <bruce_> I do not see any Apple Logo...    There is the Ubuntu Logo in the top left...  I am not on a Mac...   Using an AspireOne (Acer) (PC) with Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook dist.
[07:41] <bruce_> Logan: Sorry if I am not understaning your question..
[07:42] <Logan_> bruce_: sorry, but histo was implying that you wanted to add an Apple logo to your panel
[07:42] <pfifo> bruce_, I think i know what your looking for, you want to add an application to the applications menu right?
[07:42] <bruce_> standing..  sri..  not used to this small kybd yet.
[07:42] <dBugSlayer> pfifo, histo: I figured it out. Thanks for your help!
[07:42] <inslan4> pfifo, i cant find 'mouse keys' in mouse preferences
[07:42] <bruce_> pfifo: I want to add an application to the 'launcher' bar (normally on the TOP in a regular U buntu desktop.
[07:43] <abstrakt> bruce_, so right click
[07:43] <histo> bruce_: drag the application icon from the menu there
[07:43] <bruce_> but on the Netbook, it is on the left side of screen.
[07:43] <pfifo> inslan4, sorry, its in keyboard settings
[07:43] <romantic_rectum> hi guys
[07:44] <abstrakt> bruce_, right click = solution to all your problems
[07:44] <abstrakt> bruce_, get adventurous, explore a little bit
[07:44] <bruce_> I'll try that again..  did not work that way before..  Just to make sure I'm not spacing..  <trying again>  brb
[07:44] <mrdeb> is ubuntu safe to use overall, give how much canonical is modifying it
[07:44] <histo> bruce_: are you running netbook version of ubuntu?
[07:44] <kriume> i cant download supertuxcart from ubuntu softwarecenter it says Requires installation of insecure packages...........................what should i do???
[07:44] <abstrakt> mrdeb, o.0
[07:44] <abstrakt> mrdeb, what wouldn't be safe?
[07:44] <abstrakt> mrdeb, if you want "safe" go back to debian stable
[07:45] <inslan4> pfifo, oh ok i found mouse keys and the only box in there is unchecked so i guess its something else
[07:45] <mrdeb> because they are automating it and making user mods hard
[07:45] <pfifo> mrdeb, it follows all the rules of any distro
[07:45] <mrdeb> oh doe sit
[07:45] <abstrakt> mrdeb, or purchase RHEL or something... i've been using Ubuntu 10.10 for a while now, fine for me, except for that one time that a software update corrupted my HD ;P
[07:45] <Technikfreak> hello toegether is there an existing "easily" syncrhonsiatioon software os wide i mean between windows and linux that i have a folder that is everytime up to date
[07:45] <mrdeb> abstrakt: how did it corrupt it. i think 10.10 performs well
[07:46] <abstrakt> mrdeb, how? I wish i knew
[07:46] <mrdeb> how can you trust it now
[07:46] <kriume> i cant download supertuxcart from ubuntu softwarecenter it says Requires installation of insecure packages, and i press ok and the download is not starting.. help plz
[07:46] <abstrakt> mrdeb, all I know is that I had essentially unrecoverable errors - luckily I was able to save it with fsck, but I got a bout a bazillion inode errors etc I had to fix
[07:46] <Jordan_U> abstrakt: What were the symptoms? I find it hard to believe that a software update would actually cause loss of all data on the hard drive.
[07:47] <bruce_> histo: yes..
[07:47] <bruce_> netbook version 10.10
[07:47] <abstrakt> Jordan_U, symptoms? well grub disappeared, so I had to boot using a CD/USB, and then when I did that I couldn't mount the partition, so I had to fsck it and I got about a bazillion inode related errors
[07:48] <abstrakt> Jordan_U, then I had to manually reinstall grub in the MBR (read: not even windows would boot, cuz I had no grub)
[07:48] <abstrakt> Jordan_U, and yeah then I was able to boot my 10.10 partition, and my old 10.04 partition, but my 10.10 install was royally screwed, the gnome theme was gone, default ugly theme
[07:48] <bruce_> Just tried every kind of drag I can think of with every key combo..  will not drag to launchpad.
[07:48] <abstrakt> all kinds of other weird random problems
[07:48] <mrdeb> really abstrakt
[07:48] <abstrakt> Jordan_U, I found it quite hard to believe, yet it happened
[07:48] <abstrakt> mrdeb, yup, really
[07:49] <abstrakt> mrdeb, again, if you want 'safe' just stay on debian stable and never run software update
[07:49] <mrdeb> lol
[07:49] <mrdeb> cant do that
[07:49] <abstrakt> oh and never install any packages
[07:49] <abstrakt> ever
[07:49] <sltc> hello
[07:49] <abstrakt> mrdeb, ok then it's impossible to have anywhere near assurance of "safety"
[07:49] <Jordan_U> abstrakt: Did you check the drive's SMART status for hardware problems? What happened when you tried to boot before re-installing grub but after the fsck?
[07:49] <mrdeb> well, at least you can put your critical data on a separate partition
[07:49] <abstrakt> again, maybe if you pay for RHEL you will have someone to sue
[07:50] <MACscr|lappy> ok, so i have 3 sata drives in my desktop. The first one has ubuntu on it, the second is for storage and the third is for windows 7. Ubuntu has been handling the whole dual boot thing using grub. Now when i try to reinstall windows on the third drive (even after formatting), it wont let me reinstall it. Says it cant access the partition (though it lets me delete and/or format it. any recommendations?
[07:50] <abstrakt> Jordan_U, the fsck didn't fix grub
[07:50] <mrdeb> were you running 32bit version
[07:50] <abstrakt> mrdeb, nope, 64
[07:50] <Jordan_U> abstrakt: What happened when you tried to boot though?
[07:50] <mrdeb> so maybe taht's why
[07:50] <abstrakt> Jordan_U, blank black screen, blinking "underline" style cursor
[07:50] <abstrakt> that's it
[07:50] <abstrakt> mrdeb, yeah but that's still BS
[07:51] <Jordan_U> mrdeb: 64 bit vs 32 bit shouldn't make a difference.
[07:51] <mrdeb> it shouldnt, but it might
[07:51] <mrdeb> i ran 64bit 10.10 and now im also running 32bit for camparison reasons
[07:51] <mrdeb> notice some interesting things
[07:51] <abstrakt> yeah 64 used to throw giant gobs of poop, and not too long ago either
[07:52] <abstrakt> better now, still a little poopy - or sometimes very poopy as I found out about 1.5 months ago
[07:52] <Jordan_U> abstrakt: Did you check the SMART status of the drive? I'm almost certain that the Software update and the corruption are unrelated.
[07:52] <pfifo> MACscr|lappy, iver always found the windows complains if you install to anything besides the first partition of the first drive in your system, unless there is already a windows installed on the first partition of the first drive on your system... try to fix the issure by unplugging the first and second drive in your computer then installing
[07:52] <bruce_> guess I am destined to do three of four actions just to get one of my very often used applicaitons started, when it SHOULD be as easy as dragging it to the launchbar.  Current tasks show up GREAT in the bar with the little carot next to them, but not able to ADD any links to applications to the quicklaunch  :(
[07:52] <mrdeb> the thing is that 64 bit is faster
[07:53] <mrdeb> and everything works now, even flash
[07:53] <mrdeb> but it's still a patchwork of stuff
[07:53] <Logan_> mrdeb: well, of course it will, because it is utilizing all of your RAM
[07:53] <mrdeb> that's nto why
[07:53] <Logan_> unless you have fewer than 4 GB of RAM
[07:53] <mrdeb> ubuntu never exceeds 512mb under normal circumstances
[07:53] <mrdeb> it's bec the cpu operates faster
[07:54] <eZtaR> Does anyone know if you can set perform commands in xchat? :)
[07:54]  * pfifo facepalm's
[07:54] <bruce_> pfifo: agreed...
[07:54]  * bruce_ agrees
[07:55] <romantic_rectum> im very unhappy with ubuntu
[07:55] <eZtaR> How come romantic_rectum?
[07:56] <canadacow> why's that?
[07:56] <jiltdil> to see what is behind my QR code that is created by me using command how to do that?
[07:56] <romantic_rectum> no support games i want games
[07:56] <Logan_> !games | romantic_rectum
[07:57] <canadacow> what games did you have in mind?
[07:57] <bruce_> I thought it was going to be really cool to have Ubuntu on a netbook (my first netbook), and it has been interesting, but this procedure of going all though the menu system EVERY time I want to start up a fav application is getting VERY tiring, and it is extremely time consuming...
[07:57] <pfifo> games support an operating system, not the otherway around
[07:57] <romantic_rectum> any games i love 3D
[07:58] <eZtaR> bruce_, I'm assuming you're using netbook remix? I got tired of that aswell and just reverted back to original :P
[07:58] <mrdeb> so afman , you are overall happy
[07:58] <KB1JWQ> romantic_rectum: Stop trolling freenode, please.
[07:58] <mrdeb> yes. netbook remix is limiting
[07:58] <Logan_> KB1JWQ: heh, I could tell from the username
[07:59] <bruce_> eZ: iirc I chose the original netbook dist..  was a little hesitant to try a "remix"..  :)
[07:59] <jjp> About general sentiment on netbook remix: agreed; only add+ is on tiny screen (my 7'' asus eeepc)
[07:59] <Logan_> bruce_: netbook distro = netbook remix
[07:59] <Logan_> remix just means it's not desktop Ubuntu
[07:59] <mrdeb> there's no reason for the remix
[08:00] <Logan_> bruce_: well, now it's called Ubuntu Netbook Edition
[08:00] <bruce_> OK...  Thought I saw two dist, side by side, a base and the remix on the same mirror..  could be wrong on that..
[08:00] <bruce_> OK..  NBE...   That sounds right..
[08:01] <bruce_> just seems to me that ther SHOULD be a way to ADD applications to the launcher, since there is a way to REMOVE them  :)
[08:01] <inslan4> how do i find out what format a disk is in?
[08:01] <leapy0yo> hi
[08:02] <leapy0yo> how can i mv files and directories and override the "destination already exists" ?
[08:02] <jiltdil> if i have a QR code how do i see itd contents that is added to it?
[08:02] <pfifo> leapy0yo, by first deleting the destination
[08:03] <eZtaR> bruce_, you can, just open the app you want to pin and right-click it :)
[08:03] <leapy0yo> pifio, i rather there be an alternative
[08:03] <Ropuppetlauncher> I want 1280x960 to show up in MONITOR SETTINGS rather than 1280x1024 which isn't 4:3.. it's the wrong aspect ratio. What do I do?
[08:03] <wxy> 大家好！
[08:03] <Pici> leapy0yo: use the -f switch
[08:03] <Pici> !zh | wxy
[08:04] <pfifo> leapy0yo, i usually use 'cp -a' and then once finished delete the originals if i dont want them on the filesystem

[08:07] <Logan_> jiltdil: I don't understand your question
[08:07] <inslan4> how do i find out what format a disk is in on ubuntu?
[08:07] <bruce_> alright...  will stay in chan
[08:08] <jiltdil> Logan: i mean to say that can i use QR code to on my pdf or any .odt ?
[08:09] <kingsley> Is anyone going to package the newly GPL'ed "j" programming language?
[08:09] <pfifo> inslan4, not sure how to probe it, but if you run fsck on itt you should get a good idea
[08:09] <claus> Anyone know how to redirect cosole output to a second console?  You use the '>' operator, but what is the filename of my "new" console that I create?
[08:09] <inslan4> thanks pfifo
[08:09] <jiltdil> Logan: as books have bar code can i use my own Qr code to my made documents
[08:10] <kingsley> I like to think of "j" as Ken Iverson's swan song, after he won the Turing Award for APL.
[08:10] <pfifo> SenoraRaton, you might be able to 'tee' and redirect to /dev/ttyX
[08:11] <eZtaR> bruce_, Sorry man, can't give you a more accurate description than that, it's been a while since i changed from netbook remix
[08:13] <SenoraRaton> You can send tty to the console, capture the input apparently.
[08:14] <bruce_> eZtaR:   Just did this procedure...      left click on 'application menu button' (triangle square with sissors) in launcher, that brought up top level applications menu.  selected 'Media' submenu, that brought up the menu containing the 'rosegarden' icon (among others), right click on rosegarden icon - no result, try to drag rg icon, as soon as mouse leaves icon - icon returns to normal status, no drag occurs...
[08:14] <Poisonfibre> i got an error while trying to install a game on Ubuntu (got the game off the ubuntu games list)

[08:28] <Chipper351> Has anyone every tired to Update a Ubuntu Live on a USB Drive? After I Update I have nothing but issues with my Ubuntu
[08:29] <supe> Cheers
[08:29] <Jordan_U> Chipper351: You can't upgrade a LiveUSB install. If you have enough room I would just do a normal install to the flash drive instead.
[08:29] <Chipper351> I dont want to do that because I want to be able to take my USB from computer to computer and the USB to be able to reconize the drives and everything else on that box
[08:30] <blackest_knight> I'm trying to use lvm and move files from my internally ssd to a bigger sdcard but the card is mounted late so i'm having a bit of bother /home is successfully moved but i'd like to move more
[08:30] <pfifo> Chipper351, a regular install will still do that
[08:31] <Anubis> hi ! how can i generate 100+ users accounts on linux ?
[08:31] <Chipper351> If i take my USB to two different computer it will still detect any new hard drives and hardware that is in the different computers?
[08:31] <pfifo> Anubis, a shell script should suffice
[08:31] <Xintruder> is back-track based on ubuntu?
[08:32] <pfifo> Chipper351, thers not much diffenrence between the live system and the normal install, they both detect hardware the same way
[08:32] <blackest_knight> Chipper351: yes a drive is portable i've taken hard drives from one system and put it in another without issues
[08:32] <truepurple> When I try to add tomeboy notes to my panel, it gives me the following error- The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:TomboyApplet". Can someone help me?
[08:32] <Chipper351> what is the difference then?
[08:33] <pfifo> Chipper351, the live system includes the casper package which makes your system run on a rramdisk and changes arent persistant
[08:33] <crum> hellllllooo
[08:33] <crum> I'm going to ask an off topic question. please spare me from a ban!
[08:33] <crum> I just want to get some people's opinions
[08:33] <crum> Is this sentence understandable? http://pastebin.com/rprYJjxf
[08:34] <Chipper351> I created my USB with persistant space that still wont help?
[08:35] <jichunjian> the waht
[08:35] <jichunjian> nobody is here
[08:35] <Jordan_U> Chipper351: persistance doesn't allow upgrading of the kernel, among other things.
[08:36] <jichunjian> why
[08:36] <jichunjian> ?
[08:36] <Jordan_U> jichunjian: Why what?
[08:36] <blackest_knight> crum it depends on the pargraph :)
[08:36] <jichunjian> i don't know my first play this

[08:41] <jichunjian> ;
[08:41] <dh__> chinese
[08:41] <pfifo> Eryn_1983_FL, ive had similiar problems when putting my card into promiscuous mode and then trying to go back, im pretty sure you have to reboot, I remember reading about it using airocrack
[08:42] <leftist> anyone here i can have a private chat regarding a question i have about jumpbox?
[08:42] <Eryn_1983_FL> lol
[08:42] <Eryn_1983_FL>  you have to?
[08:42] <Eryn_1983_FL> that so  freaking sucks
[08:42] <knightstalker> Jordan_U,aha,and how can I call it from keyboard,Ctrl + alt + del for example :p
[08:42] <FloodBot1> Eryn_1983_FL: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:42] <eZtaR> Chipper351 i usually put 10-15 gb, but that might be a bit much, but the default install menu should do the trick :)
[08:42] <whitty> These notifications are stupid. I like notifications but I always like to be able to CLOSE THEM. They're just annoying.. if I put my mouse oevr them they just fade out until i move it back away.. i have to wait for it to close. This is extremely annoying, how do i change this?
[08:43] <pfifo> Chipper351, its the same as installing to a hard drive, and the recommended minium harddrive size is 2gb if using the standard desktop install CD
[08:43] <Chipper351> Thanks everyone for your help, I will trying installing just Ubuntu as normal and hopfully it will work as I want it to .. thanks a ton!
[08:43] <Jordan_U> Chipper351: You're welcome.
[08:44] <pfifo> Eryn_1983_FL, you might want to try unloading the kernel module and reloading, but dont blame me if you crash
[08:45] <crum> pfifo just incase you want to know, I'm learning legal writing, which is similar to the technical writing in computer science, especially psuedo code, in that it needs to be unambiguous and concise.
[08:45] <Xintruder> what would be the laptop to buy, that would be completly compatable with ubuntu?
[08:46] <crum> Xintruder get a mac
[08:46] <crum> seriously, it's superior to everything out there.
[08:46] <pfifo> not eeepc thats for sure, should come with a coupon for a bottle of aspirin
[08:46] <Sleaker> ok I'm trying to use crontab to run a .sh at reboot.  It seems to run it (it shows up in System Monitor) but I need it to open an actual terminal window when it runs.
[08:46] <Sleaker> anyway to change this?
[08:46] <crum> pfifo seriously thanks for the help. I will not be off topic and will install ubuntu when I get a chance :-D
[08:47] <Sleaker> I'm guessing i may not be able to use cron, I probably need something to run at login
[08:47] <Xintruder> crum I have one, u recommend dual boot?
[08:47] <pfifo> Sleaker, thats not really a good idea
[08:48] <Sleaker> pfifo, how come?
[08:48] <Jordan_U> Xintruder: crum: Macs in general use a lot of hardware with poor linux support.
[08:48] <pfifo> Sleaker, why do you have to have a terminal windo open?
[08:48] <crum> Jordan_U dang.. I didn't know that :/
[08:48] <dh__> sleeping
[08:48] <Sleaker> pfifo the app I'm running requires administration from the terminal it uses.
[08:48] <dh__> :)
[08:48] <pfifo> Sleaker, crontab isnt designed to be an interactive thing
[08:48] <Sleaker> ahh ok
[08:49] <Sleaker> so is there a better way to run something like that at login?
[08:49] <dh__> ibm
[08:49] <Xintruder> Jordan_U: why on earth did het tell me get a mac then, cru?
[08:49] <pfifo> add it to your startup applications
[08:49] <Jordan_U> Xintruder: You can buy a computer with Ubuntu pre-installed from places like http://www.system76.com or http://dell.com/ubuntu
[08:49] <knightstalker> No one knows how to call System monitor from keyboard?
[08:49] <Sleaker> knightstalker, I just learned terminal :-/
[08:50] <Sleaker> but.. I've been using linux for a whole 2 days.
[08:50] <knightstalker> Sleaker,I am using it for about 6 months
[08:50] <dh__> 有中国人吗？
[08:50] <AJenbo> Hi, where should i save my shell script so that i can call with with out a path?
[08:51] <eZtaR> knightstalker, you can setup a  custom keyboard shortcut in System > Preferences
[08:51] <knightstalker> but I did everything dirty from terminal,now that some people need ubuntu for some reasons,they ask me to tell them how to do it using GUI
[08:51] <pfifo> knightstalker, you can add a new keyboard shortcut in the system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts
[08:51] <knightstalker> Thanks,
[08:52] <Sleaker> pfifo, will cron always run commands hidden
[08:52] <knightstalker> Thanks eZtaR and pfifo ;)
[08:53] <pfifo> Sleaker, it emails all program output to root
[08:53] <eZtaR> np knightstalker :)
[08:53] <MACscr> ok, so i run ubuntu as my primary OS, but have windows 7 on another disk. Im currently using grub to pick between the two. Anyway, i had to reinstall windows on the that separate disk and for some reason it wouldnt let me install unless disconnected the rest of my drives. Well now that i have it installed again and the drives reconnected, i cant seem to boot into windows. The partition its picking is correct though, as it should indeed 
[08:53] <Sleaker> pfifo, can that be supressed?
[08:53] <MACscr> when i pick the windows option, it says it cant find the partition
[08:54] <Chipper351> I have formatted my USB drive with 10GB of Space for Ubunut, when I go to install I choose Install from within Windows and the Ubunut Installer Comes up. It then tells me that the Drive on has 9GB free and asks for the Installation Size ... What is it asking for with the Installation size?
[08:54] <ohsix> MACscr: try running sudo update-grub in ubuntu, in a terminal
[08:54] <Jordan_U> MACscr: Did you run "sudo update-grub" after re-installing windows?
[08:54] <pfifo> Sleaker, you can have the program specifically write to another file, but stdout and stderr are going to root's mailbox
[08:55] <Sleaker> pfifo, ahh ok. I'm sure I can googlefu how to change output
[08:55] <MACscr> thanks, just tried that. Will see how it works. Also, how can i get ubuntu to only retain the last 2 kernels? right now there are like 5 options
[08:55] <jussi> How does one see which groups a user belongs to?
[08:55] <jussi> (from the cli)
[08:56] <pfifo> you might be able to run gnome-terminal in crontab, and have gnome-terminal execute the actual script, but you might get some problems finding the X display
[08:56] <pfifo> jussi, root can run 'groups <user>'
[08:56] <Tamago> Is there a way to install ubuntu 10.10 from a 9.10 live cd?
[08:56] <jussi> pfifo: excellent, thank you
[08:56] <AJenbo> is there a user folder where i can put bin files?
[08:56] <sagaci> Tamago, ahh, no
[08:57] <ohsix> jussi: id user
[08:57] <pfifo> Tamago, in short, no
[08:57] <Tamago> *sigh*
[08:57]  * Tamago goes in search of the minimal installer
[08:57] <Jordan_U> Tamago: Not a straightforward one. What is your exact situation?
[08:57] <AJenbo> or du i have to put them in /usr/bin ?
[08:57] <Tamago> jordan: .... isn't it obvious? I have a 9.10 live cd and I want to install 10.10.
[08:58] <pfifo> AJenbo, you can put them in /home/user/bin and add that directory to your $PATH
[08:58] <Jordan_U> Tamago: But given how difficult it would be to install 10.10 with just a 9.10 liveCD (easiest way being to install then upgrade, using a lot of bandwidth) it's usefull to know if you have other options or if you're stuck 200 miles from the nearest black CD or flash drive :)
[08:59] <ohsix> .local/bin for great justice
[08:59] <pfifo> Tamago, a ubuntu 10.10 liveccd is a bit better for installing 10.10
[08:59] <Tamago> jordan: I'm going to download as minimal an install disc as I can find (I think mythtv or xmbc pointed to one that's 15mb)
[09:00] <Jordan_U> !minimal | Tamago
[09:00] <Tamago> thanks
[09:00] <Jordan_U> Tamago: You're welcome.

[09:03] <ohsix> zamba: it means you can pick either, suiting extra battery life or whatnot

[09:05] <megh> support for that in linux is sketchy at the moment
[09:05] <aaron_c> i'm specficially doing sudo apt-get install firefox3.6 yet it's STILL installing forefox4
[09:05] <zamba> ohsix: so i have to build the module myself?
[09:06] <zamba> ohsix: can
[09:06] <zamba> ohsix: can't i just use one of the graphic adapters?
[09:06] <ohsix> zamba: no idea if thats current, it's just background information
[09:06] <zamba> ohsix: and just decide to use that?
[09:06] <zamba> ohsix: and forget about the other?
[09:07] <ohsix> zamba: something has to pick which to use, as they'll try and decode the same addresses
[09:07] <pfifo> Chipper351, the filesystem caould be using a bit of data itself
[09:07] <Chipper351> ty
[09:08] <tim___> any developers here ? i have a suggestion
[09:08] <ikonia> tim___: log it on launchpad.net as a enchancment or feature request
[09:08] <pfifo> tim___, use launchpad, irc logs get forgotten
[09:08] <inslan4> i dont know whats wrong i cant open any files any more.  even if i right click theres no option to open the file
[09:09] <ohsix> zamba: personally i think  forums are worse than useless, but it might have current leads; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1531828 i know the switcheroo stuff is in there, but nothing beyond that
[09:10] <inslan4> then after a while i cant even type on irc
[09:10] <inslan4> i keep having to reboot
[09:10] <pfifo> inslan4, perform a filesystem check
[09:11] <inslan4> ok
[09:11] <ohsix> zamba: the going parlance is "vga switcheroo", too
[09:11] <tim___> where can i find the feature request submission on launchpad
[09:12] <YankDownUnder> Just for a giggle and a grin, tim___ , what feature do you want?
[09:12] <inslan4> pfifo,  i guess that will have to wait to because now i cant move the cursor from xchat
[09:12] <ikonia> tim___: you log it against the package you want to log the request against, or you can put it on brainstorm.ubuntu.com if it's a general suggestion
[09:12] <ikonia> YankDownUnder: this is a support channel,
[09:12] <pfifo> inslan4, you cant do that to a running system anyway, you have to reboot to recovery mode or use a live cd
[09:12] <YankDownUnder> ikonia, Yes, I know this very well...
[09:13] <inslan4> oh ok
[09:13] <ikonia> YankDownUnder: great so you know feature requests don't belong here
[09:13] <YankDownUnder> ikonia, I wasn't the one making the "feature request" - however, I was just curious as to what the feature was...
[09:14] <inslan4> thanks pfifo
[09:14] <ikonia> YankDownUnder: ok, then talk to him in pm
[09:14] <pfifo> inslan4, sure thing
[09:15] <player> exi
[09:15] <player> exit
[09:15] <player> quite
[09:15] <ikonia> player: /quit
[09:15] <grindcrusher> heh
[09:16] <pfifo> 10/10 best troll ever
[09:16] <lament> quite
[09:16] <ikonia> or he was just trying to quit
[09:16] <zxiest> Hey guys...
[09:17] <zxiest> How can I chmod for all future files in a given folder? Would a -R do it?
[09:17] <pfifo> zxiest, you cant, you can only set the default system wide
[09:17] <KB1JWQ> zxiest: You don't.  You might set up a cron job that does it, but there's no inherent functionality.
[09:18] <Kimmen> can't you set per folder umask?
[09:18] <zxiest> Thanks guys =)
[09:18] <whereami> I have a Radeon HD 5870, but the radeon driver seems to not want to enable GPU acceleration. Where do I start?
[09:18] <pfifo> Kimmen, in certain circumstances like an ftpd, but not without a helper progam for general stuff
[09:20] <pfifo> whereami, how are you testing this?
[09:20] <whereami> pfifo, for one, compiz won't start. Also looked in xorg logs
[09:21] <pfifo> what do the xorg logs say?
[09:22] <whitty> These notifications are stupid. I like notifications but I always like to be able to CLOSE THEM. They're just annoying.. if I put my mouse oevr them they just fade out until i move it back away.. i have to wait for it to close. This is extremely annoying, how do i change this?
[09:22] <whitty> nevermind.............
[09:22] <whitty> i'll use a different notifications daemon..
[09:23] <ohsix> well that was easy
[09:23] <ohsix> leaves one to wonder if the last statement was your intention, rather than assistance

[09:23] <whereami> pfifo, http://pastebin.com/Z0vpheGe
[09:24] <whereami> pfifo, for what it's worth, I was using fglrx, but I just uninstalled it.
[09:25] <pfifo> whereami, what are your framerates for glgears?
[09:26] <pfifo> you using dvorak? nice
[09:26] <ohsix> pfifo: you might have someone run glxinfo first, specifically the direct rendering line; or possibly the vendor, to see if it's in software or not
[09:26] <zamba> ohsix: i'm reading http://asusm51ta-with-linux.blogspot.com/
[09:27] <zamba> ohsix: and according to this it should work out of the box in ubuntu 10.10
[09:27] <zamba> which it doesn't
[09:27] <zamba> i don't have the vgaswitcheroo module
[09:27] <ohsix> zamba: do you have the vgaswitcheroo file in debugfs?
[09:27] <whereami> pfifo, I doubt the diagnostic utility of glxgears, but about 980 fps
[09:27] <leapy0yo> how can i put a process to sleep?
[09:27] <ohsix> read the scripts
[09:27] <zamba> ohsix: nope
[09:28] <ohsix> leapy0yo: temporarily? kill -STOP, restart it with -CONT
[09:29] <whereami> pfifo, ohsix: glxinfo shows it's using the software rasterizer.
[09:29] <zamba> ohsix: what then?
[09:30] <pfifo> whereami, yeah it is, it says that in your xorg log, do you have an Xorg.conf?
[09:30] <leapy0yo> do you know how to use ps to show what processes that are stopped for a while via kill -STOP?
[09:30] <whereami> pfifo, I removed the one that catalyst created (before rebooting)
[09:31] <pfifo> whereami, ok, do you see the proper module loaded in lsmod?
[09:32] <whereami> I see "radeon" in there, yeah
[09:33] <whereami> and drm
[09:33] <leapy0yo> i do kill -STOP , but I do not know what process is that status via ps
[09:33] <zamba> ohsix: i believe i have to add a kernel option
[09:33] <zamba> ohsix: modeset or something
[09:33] <zamba> ohsix: where do i put that?
[09:34] <offsense> how to specifiy the port numbers in ssh remote connection
[09:34] <zamba> offsense: ssh -p <port>
[09:34] <pfifo> whereami, I think you should write your own Xorg.conf
[09:34] <offsense> zamba: thnx m8
[09:36] <Pinpon> hi ! I didn't find doc about the meaning of /etc/rc1.d /etc/rc.d and how to add scripts inside these directories ?
[09:38] <llutz> Pinpon: those are sysvinit-runlevels, update-rc.d to manage the links. it shouldn't be used with ubuntu anymore, since it uses upstart (scripts in /etc/init)
[09:40] <Pinpon> llutz: so i just use updace-rc.d in order to make sym link to the scripts?
[09:40] <Seven_Six_Two> is anyone here good at ipv4? I've set up an ap with a usb wifi. need help with routing
[09:40] <djxcqtion> hey people
[09:40] <djxcqtion> wats up
[09:41] <djxcqtion> Just got Ubuntu and man has it impressed
[09:41] <pfifo> pinPoint, the documentation http://www.netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/chap-rc.html
[09:41] <llutz> !runlevel | Pinpon
[09:41] <eZtaR> Seven_Six_Two, what do you need help with? :)
[09:41] <llutz> Pinpon: basically yes
[09:41] <Seven_Six_Two> here are my files:      http://pastebin.com/7TYnfN4R   here''s my ifconfig:   http://pastebin.com/69Ch0uXn   netstat -nr for desktop and laptop:   http://pastebin.com/7Zdm83V6
[09:41] <djxcqtion> question : WUBI  vs Full Installaiton? Does it effect performance?
[09:41] <whereami> pfifo, doesn't seem to have helped...
[09:42] <djxcqtion> Should I wait till 11.04 to go for full installation
[09:42] <Seven_Six_Two> using airbase with no security for the ap. no errors so far, but I can't browse, and a ping to google shows 2 sent, 2 rec'd, +9 duplicates
[09:42] <llutz> Pinpon: you also can use sysv-rc-conf
[09:43] <pfifo> whereami, can I see your xorg.conf
[09:43] <whereami> pfifo, so, one of the "(WW)" lines in the xorg log says "Color tiling is not yet supported on R600/R700"   Is color tiling required for drm/mesa acceleration to work?
[09:43] <djxcqtion> anyone?
[09:43] <eZtaR> Seven_Six_Two, I'm afraid this is above my level of expertise, sorry :P
[09:43] <whereami> pfifo, sure... http://pastebin.com/erYShPrL
[09:45] <pfifo> whereami, clear out your xorg log and restart x, lets see what it reports now
[09:45] <whereami> pfifo, I did, I rebooted, actually.
[09:45] <Seven_Six_Two> eZtaR, no problem. Mine too, apparently. I think the trouble is with my routing tables.  at0 is a device created by airmon-ng. airmon-ng puts wlan0 in to monitor mode
[09:45] <pfifo> whereami, paste your new xorg log
[09:45] <eddiedlajflasd> yo how come when I boot to disk after a short display of a colored window with what looks like a keyboard and an =  and then a person at the bottom in white, then it switches to a flashing cursor for a while then my monitor turns off and nothing else happends?
[09:45] <Seven_Six_Two> then the dhcp server responds to at0 on a subnet of my own network
[09:46] <whereami> pfifo, and the log looks the same, except for not mentioning the other drivers anymore.
[09:46] <earthling_> djxcqtion, I have a laptop for my non-ubuntu programs, I'd buy a new hard drive and do a full install of 10.04
[09:46] <earthling_> or 10.10
[09:46] <earthling_> for desktop
[09:46] <whereami> pfifo, http://pastebin.com/gX8TLAvj
[09:46] <djxcqtion> Its for a desktop earthling_
[09:47] <djxcqtion> Desktop old
[09:47] <djxcqtion> p4 2.8 Ghz 2GB RAM...XP on it
[09:47] <djxcqtion> slow on XP
[09:47] <djxcqtion> so i changed to UBuntu
[09:48] <eddiedlajflasd> anyone know why when I boot to disk it doesn't boot right?  It attempts boot looks like its loading then bang monitor turns off and nothing else
[09:48] <earthling_> djxcqtion, should be ok for 10.10 or 10.04
[09:48] <djxcqtion> mainly use it to browse, muci
[09:48] <djxcqtion> yeah
[09:49] <djxcqtion> does WUBI installation effect performance for a dektop with my stats?
[09:49] <djxcqtion> or should I go for it
[09:49] <djxcqtion> Ive read mostly that the WUBI installation just effects performance slighly
[09:49] <djxcqtion> but they dont explain wher?
[09:50] <eddiedlajflasd> anyone know why when the disk is booting Ubuntu from cd why it would show a cursor for a while then turn my monitor off and then nothingg?
[09:50] <offsense1> how to copy file in ssh connection from remote host to local desktop
[09:51] <llutz> offsense1: scp file user@host:/path/to/copy/to
[09:51] <offsense1> llutz: great gracias
[09:51] <pfifo> whereami, your loading the xorg provided radeon driver, have you used the priopetary drivers applet to install ATI's driver?
[09:52] <whereami> pfifo, uh, yeah, I just uninstalled it.
[09:52] <eddiedlajflasd> mOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTHHHHHHHHHHHERRRRRRRRRRRRR FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
[09:52] <pfifo> whereami, you need ATI's driver to get acceleration
[09:52] <earthling_> djxcqtion, you can also check http://ubuntuforums.org/
[09:53] <jussi> !language | eddiedlajflasd
[09:53] <eddiedlajflasd> really?
[09:53] <djxcqtion> cool
[09:53] <offsense1> llutz:  is it exected once we connected to the remote host?
[09:53] <djxcqtion> will do  :)
[09:54] <earthling_> :)
[09:54] <whereami> pfifo, alright, thanks for the help. maybe there's a newer version of the radeon driver I could try out.
[09:54] <llutz> offsense1: ? you have to use that command manually
[09:54] <eddiedlajflasd> !language | jussi
[09:55] <llutz> offsense1: scp  user@remotehost:/file  /path/to/copy/to        you can use it without being connected to the remote-site at all from local machine
[09:56] <Pinpon> llutz: rcS.d is equivalent to rc0.d rc1.d etc?
[09:56] <Pinpon> If i run a script in rcS every runlevel will use it?
[09:56] <llutz> Pinpon: theres a README in that dir
[09:57] <Pinpon> no
[09:57] <pfifo> Pinpon, no, rcS is runlevel S, or single user ode
[09:58] <Pinpon> So If I want a script in every runlevel I have to symlink it into each rc.d pfifo ?
[09:58] <pfifo> Pinpon, yeah
[09:58] <llutz> !runlevel | Pinpon  read this
[09:58] <sorush20> !firefox
[09:59] <pfifo> Pinpon, thats very true, but im answering your exact question
[09:59] <llutz> !upstart | Pinpon
[09:59] <Pinpon> :|
[10:00] <sorush20> hi, will firefox four become available in version 10.10?
[10:00] <pfifo> !ff4
[10:00] <sorush20> With out having to do manual intervention?
[10:00] <ikonia> sorush20: doubtful as an official package
[10:00] <zee313> i want to learn C language. What program will be best suited for writing and executing the C language codes.
[10:00] <Pinpon> So llutz it's recommended to use Upstart ?
[10:00] <pfifo> youll have to ask #ubuntu+1
[10:00] <llutz> Pinpon: yes
[10:01] <Seven_Six_Two> zee313, emacs
[10:01] <ikonia> zee313: ask the guys in ##c++ for suggestions/approaches
[10:01] <pfifo> Pinpon, I highly recommend using upstart
[10:02] <Pinpon> Then thx pfifo and llutz I'm gonna try to use it :-)
[10:11] <ubquest> i have some kind of keyboard mapping issue. i am running ubuntu 10.10 x64 with Remote Desktop Viewer -> ubuntu 10.10 x64 machine. that works fine. On that target machine is virtualbox which i have installed ubuntu 10.04.2 server x86 VM. whenever i type (in the VM window through remote desktop only), i get bad text (e.g. 's' comes out as [Ps). any ideas
[10:12] <pfifo> ubquest, what happens if you use virtualbox directly on the second machine?
[10:13] <ubquest> it works correctly. so it appears to be some interaction between remote desktop viewer and virtualbox
[10:15] <jakob__> i did "eth0 down" by mistake on my ubuntu server, will a reboot bring it up again?
[10:16] <VE2EBP> Hi guys, I need to go to bed and need to find an app that would wake me up in a few hours, something simple... any suggestions?
[10:16] <hateball> jakob__: assuming you have auto eth0 in your interfaces config
[10:16] <hateball> jakob__: otherwise you can just issue eth0 up :)
[10:17] <jakob__> I dont have physical access to the server :/
[10:17] <jakob__> But yeah i have auto eth0
[10:17] <jakob__> I think..
[10:17] <nowimproved> Anyone else have an issue with firefox4 and flash settings and going to settings and it freezing?
[10:17] <nowimproved> any fix, link, please, would be greatly appreciated :(
[10:17] <nowimproved> I can't even go to flash settings because it's just empty white space.
[10:18] <pfifo> VE2EBP, `sleep 7200 && aplay /dev/urandom` turn your volume up loud
[10:18] <VE2EBP> pfifo thanks I found someething: apt-get install alarm-clock

[10:20] <llutz> varun: #ubuntu+1 is the place to ask, natty is offtopic here
[10:20] <varun> hmm
[10:23] <UreshiiTora> hello
[10:24] <perlmonkey1> morning guys and girls
[10:24] <perlmonkey1> does anyone in he UK have the right time?
[10:24] <daniel__> good day, noble sir.
[10:24] <perlmonkey1> :)
[10:24] <Pinpon> llutz: upstart is great !
[10:25] <daniel__> What do you mean by "right time" ?
[10:25] <perlmonkey1> the current time of day
[10:25] <UreshiiTora> is someone here familiar with openswan/xl2tpd?
[10:25] <perlmonkey1> the clocks changed last night and I'm confused
[10:25] <th0r> brits
[10:25] <daniel__> it should be 10:25 in Britain now, if I'm not mistaken
[10:26] <perlmonkey1> damn, thanks dan
[10:26] <afterthought> perlmonkey1: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/
[10:26] <zee313> how can I convert webpages into PDF
[10:26] <perlmonkey1> i must of slept late
[10:26] <jiltdil> libdecodeqr-simpletest /path/to/QR code doesnot shows what is attached as text while making QR code?
[10:26] <perlmonkey1> I'm here to ask about a USB device... a storage stick... can these be used "as is" in Ubuntu or do you need to format/create a fs on them?
[10:27] <perlmonkey1> i want to store files on it, backup archives
[10:27] <Kimmen> perlmonkey1: they can be used as is
[10:27] <nathic> ubuntu hang on check battery state .. and  I guess it's got to to with the nvidia card what should I do?
[10:27] <perlmonkey1> cool
[10:27] <daniel__> That's actually a good question - all of my USB sticks have worked out of the box, but my Western Digital external HDD does not work.
[10:27] <perlmonkey1> :-/
[10:28] <Kimmen> could be that NTFS drives demand a bit of know-how
[10:28] <perlmonkey1> I think I deleted something on mine it worked initially but now it doesn't
[10:28] <Kimmen> FAT and FAT32 are mounted automagically
[10:28] <perlmonkey1> these USB sticks are very handy though for storing important backup data
[10:28] <daniel__> ah, could be that the WD - Drive is NTFS, then. :O
[10:28] <perlmonkey1> if I'd used mine I wouldn't be in the mess I'm in now
[10:29] <zxiest> What's supposed to be in /usr/local ?
[10:30] <jiltdil> i made QR code using qrencode and when i used   libdecodeqr-simpletest /path/to/QR code doesnot shows what is attached as text /
[10:30] <jiltdil> help
[10:30] <perlmonkey1> zxiest seems to be largely empty
[10:31] <zxiest> perlmonkey1 is it like one's desktop?
[10:31] <perlmonkey1> zxiest I'm not sure.. I remember installing a custom version of Perl there once
[10:33] <perlmonkey1> I bought a little camera with 8gb micro SDhd card, i hope it works in Ubuntu
[10:33] <zxiest> perlmonkey1 I c... thanks :-)
[10:33] <Laurenceb_> can anyone suggest an eps editor?
[10:34] <nathic> is it possible to backup files from root shell?
[10:34] <perlmonkey1> yes
[10:34] <perlmonkey1> why wouldn't it be
[10:35] <sanket> What is a good place to discuss filesystems related issues ?
[10:35] <nathic> sorry wrong question ... wanted to ask  what i have to to when my ubuntu hangs on checking battery state
[10:35] <nathic> i think its related with my nvidia graphic card
[10:35] <perlmonkey1> sanket maybe #linux
[10:36] <daniel__> nathic - what leads you to that assumption ?
[10:36] <supe> hi
[10:36] <nathic> daniel__  a lot of google research about common issues when system hangs on checking battery state
[10:37] <sanket> perlmonkey1: thanks.
[10:37] <perlmonkey1> nathic work like a detective, or like sherlock holmes, eliminate the possible and whatever remains, is the cause.. check error logs first, then try removing battery and working off mains?
[10:37] <nathic> I think that xorg doesn't know which bus to use
[10:37] <supe> I'm getting errors saying I don't have /home/supe/.jhbuildrc. Can someone give me there .jhbuildrc file so I can run "jhbuild build gtksourceview"?
[10:38] <perlmonkey1> damn i dont feel good
[10:38] <nathic> per1monkey1 do you know where the xorg log file is
[10:39] <perlmonkey1> yes it's in /var/log
[10:40] <perlmonkey1> supe: i don't seem to have that file
[10:40] <ohsix> supe: read the documentation, nobody can really give you one, though theres a template
[10:40] <Moopz> Hey. My friend is doing an installation of 10.04 on top of a Windows 7. After taking a long time booting etc it asks him for a username and password. No matter what we type in, it doesn't do anything.
[10:41] <bonjoyee> Moopz: have you installed already or just booting a live cd?
[10:41] <Moopz> Just booting a live CD
[10:41] <bonjoyee> Moopz: try username : ubuntu and blank password...
[10:41] <supe> I need help resolving gtksourceview dependencies so I can compile and install it. I need it for Gobby, which I'm also trying to compile. Here are my gtksourceview compile errors: http://pastebin.com/UzmX73pJ. I've spent the last hour trying to resolve them... help please?
[10:41] <perlmonkey1> I never had a live cd ask me for a login before, is that unusual?
[10:41] <Moopz> bonjoyee, alright will try once he's done restarting.
[10:42] <Menewa> need ubuntu from usb
[10:42] <Moopz> perlmonkey1, I haven't either and he's using my liveCD so I find it wierd.
[10:42] <Moopz> weird*
[10:42] <th0r> supe: none of that is an ubuntu issue
[10:42] <perlmonkey1> yes
[10:42] <jiltdil> i made QR code using qrencode and when i used   libdecodeqr-simpletest /path/to/QR code doesnot shows what is attached as text
[10:43] <supe> th0r: How about if I were compiling gedit? - Because that doesn't compile (with gtksourceview as a dependency)
[10:43] <bonjoyee> Moopz: it should not prompt for it in the first place...but if it does try that..
[10:43] <ikonia> Moopz: ubuntu/ubuntu
[10:43] <nowimproved> errr
[10:43] <nowimproved> how the heck
[10:43] <th0r> supe: compiling software is probably best supported in #c or #programming
[10:43] <nowimproved> do you start up ubuntu in gnome mode
[10:43] <nowimproved> if you're using fluxbox
[10:43] <FloodBot2> nowimproved: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:43] <supe> darn, kk
[10:43]  * perlmonkey1 opens his perl editor and begins the task of replacing 4 months of updates lost due to hdd failure
[10:43] <ikonia> supe: the guys who make the code are always good to talk to
[10:44] <ikonia> perlmonkey1: any chance of keeping the offtopic comments out of the channel please.
[10:44] <perlmonkey1> sorry ikonia i will go to #perl
[10:44] <Moopz> bonjoyee, he's still starting up so will try once he's done.
[10:44] <ikonia> thanks
[10:44] <Moopz> ikonia, Will try that if bonjoyee's doesn't work, thanks.
[10:44] <supe> ikonia: Would you recommend jhbuild
[10:44] <ikonia> Moopz: it really shouldn't ask though as been said, but there are certain bugs that have caused it to ask in the past
[10:44] <Pinpon> llutz: ?
[10:45] <ikonia> supe: no
[10:46] <poccha> hello, i need to do some excel - vba programming. is there a way to do it on ubuntu?
[10:46] <ikonia> poccha: not really
[10:47] <poccha> ikonia too bad. thanks.
[10:47] <bonjoyee> poccha: may be on a windows virtual machine running on ubuntu!
[10:48] <poccha> bonjoyee wine ?
[10:48] <poccha> or whatever it is called?
[10:48] <vivid> poccha, virtualbox is probably better
[10:49] <bonjoyee> poccha: no.....a dedicated virtual machine..using vmware or virtualbox...
[10:49] <poccha> ok ill look into this! thanks a lot!
[10:50] <Chipper351> Can someone explain a what the Swap partition is to me breifly?
[10:50] <ikonia> Chipper351: ram on disk
[10:50] <Chipper351> ty
[10:50] <pfifo> Chipper351, virtual memory, probbally shouldnt use it if your still doing that USB install
[10:50] <bonjoyee> Chipper351: heard about pagefile in windows?
[10:51] <kay_> hello
[10:51] <kay_> hi,everyone, I am new here.
[10:51] <Chipper351> Why shouldnt I use a Swap Partion with a USB install
[10:51] <vivid> you should have a swap partition about 2x the size of your physical ram
[10:51] <Chipper351> I found a tutorial that told me to Partition the USB with "/, /home, and swap"
[10:51] <kay_> yes
[10:52] <pfifo> Chipper351, well you can, but I wouldn't want swap on a USB stick myself
[10:52] <almoxarife> I have 4gig of ram, so why do I need a 8gig swap?
[10:52] <kay_> how to get the user input in a shell command
[10:52] <|Long|> have anyone here using cryptsetup script?
[10:52] <th0r> almoxarife: with that much ram you don't really need a swap file
[10:52] <hateball> almoxarife: if you use suspend
[10:52] <bonjoyee> Chipper351: because..usb drives have a finite no of write cycles....so it could damage the usb drive...
[10:52] <vivid> almoxarife, everyone has a lot of ram now days, thats just the general rule
[10:52] <kay_> can you tell me how to use "read" in shell
[10:53] <Chipper351> so how should I format my USB drive then?
[10:53] <almoxarife> ok, didn't want to miss out of something, thnks
[10:53] <bonjoyee> almoxarife: with that much RAM, you only need swap if you want to hibernate the computer...
[10:53] <pfifo> Chipper351, i honestly wound just make 1 big partition, anything more is kinda pointless on a USB stick
[10:54] <pfifo> Chipper351, the only other method i wound consider is 2 equal partitions one fat32 and one ext2
[10:55] <Chipper351> so no /home partition?
[10:55] <almoxarife> bonjoyee: true, and I can't hibernate without a swap, that I don't have. :) although I wonder if having a 2gig swap on flash would be of any benefit ?
[10:55] <kay_> I am modifying the gedit software, and i want to run the compiled programme  with a delay at the end, so I want to get the function of "press any key to continue.." who can help me to solve this problem?
[10:55] <pfifo> Chipper351, theres little reason todo that
[10:55] <kay_> thx
[10:55] <kay_> I am modifying the gedit software, and i want to run the compiled programme  with a delay at the end, so I want to get the function of "press any key to continue.." who can help me to solve this problem? thanks
[10:56] <ikonia> kay_: you need to talk to the gedit devlopers or general programming support,
[10:56] <alami> hello, what are the option that i can do when my system is weird, after Grub
[10:56] <ikonia> kay_: try ##programming ##c++
[10:56] <Pinpon> Anyone familiar with upstart ?
[10:56] <PSiLO23> Hi there, i install Kubuntu, is it possible to install the gnome desktop next to kde ?
[10:56] <ikonia> kay_: or the gedit developers
[10:56] <Chipper351> so when I format i should just format an ext4 '/' for my linux partition correct?
[10:56] <ikonia> PSiLO23: yes
[10:56] <PSiLO23> *instlled
[10:56] <ikonia> oops
[10:56] <ikonia> Pinpon: yes
[10:56] <bonjoyee> almoxarife: swap on flash is not recommended...its slow and can damage it...
[10:56] <almoxarife> PSiLO23: yeap,
[10:56] <kay_> yes, I am tryting to programming a c++ source file
[10:57] <almoxarife> bonjoyee: swap on flash is slower than on a mech disk?
[10:57] <Pinpon> ikonia: If I do "initctl emit myevent" with a file test.conf in /etc/init/ containing http://paste.ubuntu.com/586397/ <= I don't see the echo !
[10:57] <bonjoyee> almoxarife: also to hibernate you need a swao atleast the size of your RAM...
[10:57] <bonjoyee> swap*
[10:58] <bonjoyee> almoxarife: its a usb thumb drive ..right?
[10:58] <ikonia> Pinpon: you've not started a shell to run the echo
[10:58] <Chipper351> When I format my USB drive I only need one partition for Linux correct? a ext4 file system with mount point '/' is that correct?
[10:58] <ikonia> Chipper351: sounds good
[10:58] <almoxarife> bonjoyee: no, but same sort of thing, a mini-sd
[10:59] <Chipper351> thank you all very much
[10:59] <bonjoyee> almoxarife: id say it should be slower than the sata2 drives...not entirely sure though...
[10:59] <Pinpon> ikonia: I have tested with exec echo "Test", doesn't work too :(
[11:00] <cylex> What channel can I join for ubuntu specific programming?
[11:00] <ikonia> Pinpon: you've still not started a shell as I understand it
[11:00] <ikonia> cylex: such as ?
[11:00] <cylex> like php, c
[11:00] <ikonia> cylex: that's not ubuntu specific
[11:00] <Pinpon> :|
[11:00] <ikonia> cylex: they are generic langauges that can be supported in ##php and ##c
[11:00] <cylex> k
[11:00] <cylex> there's not one for ubuntu users?
[11:01] <Pinpon> ikonia: I don't see :s
[11:01] <ikonia> cylex: why would there be, the distro doesn't matter
[11:01] <kay_> #!/bin/bash
[11:01] <kay_> FNAME=$GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_NAME
[11:01] <kay_> BINAME=`echo $FNAME |awk -F . '{print $1}'`
[11:01] <kay_> DIR=$GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_DIR
[11:01] <kay_> gnome-terminal -e $DIR/$BINAME
[11:01] <FloodBot2> kay_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:01] <kay_> read -n 1 -p "Press any key to continue..."
[11:01] <tsimpson> cylex: it would make no sense, there is nothing Ubuntu specific in those languages
[11:01] <kay_> to solve this problem?
[11:01] <tsimpson> or any
[11:01] <cylex> ok
[11:01] <ikonia> Pinpon: sorry, if you do "echo test" there is no shell to actually launch "echo" in, unless upstart launches a shell for you
[11:02] <Pinpon> With "exec echo "test"" ? Because I did http://upstart.ubuntu.com/getting-started.html <= on the bottom of this page ikonia
[11:02] <Pinpon> And it does not work !

[11:03] <slie> i'm having trouble playing a dvd, but it recognises my dvd and everything?
[11:03] <uczen> do you speak polish >??
[11:03] <cylex> slie: google dvd playback
[11:03] <alami> dual boot , i get libssl and libcrypto and phython unattended upgrades, and than it will be weird
[11:03] <kay_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/586408/
[11:04] <Pinpon> Not good ikonia  :(
[11:04] <ikonia> Pinpon: odd, are you sure the event is getting triggered ?
[11:04] <kay_> hi all
[11:04] <uczen> hello ? do you speak polish ?
[11:04] <ikonia> !pl
[11:04] <uczen> ok dzieki ;)
[11:04] <kay_> can someone help me to solve this problem? http://paste.ubuntu.com/586408/
[11:04] <cylex> slie: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Maverick#DVD_Playback_Capability
[11:04] <Pinpon> Yep it works with a "touch" ikonia
[11:05] <Pinpon> But I can't echo :/
[11:05] <Pinpon> Maybe the exec throws the echo anywhere, dunno exactly
[11:05] <alami> ikonia: can you help me to understand this Problem plz
[11:05] <ikonia> Pinpon: ok, so the good news is the actual job is working, it's just the output
[11:05] <ikonia> alami: what problem ?
[11:05] <cylex> what does sh +x filename.sh does?
[11:05] <th0r> kay_: won't 'pause' do the same thing as line 7? I think it is pause...or maybe wait?
[11:06] <ikonia> cylex: makes it executable
[11:06] <alami> my ubuntu get weird after Grub, and i get only some thing about unattended upgrades
[11:06] <ikonia> Pinpon: as the default output is /dev/null, it looks like your "output" line is not being picked up
[11:06] <ikonia> alami: no idea, plus "something about" isn't really helpful
[11:07] <alami> ikonia: i have run sudo apt-get upgrade, after that i can start my ubuntu
[11:07] <cylex> ikonia: is there different channel for ubuntu server,  or its this one as well?
[11:07] <Pinpon> Yep maybe ikonia  thx
[11:07] <ikonia> cylex: #ubuntu-server is the channel
[11:07] <cylex> thanks :>
[11:07] <antony> is there a channel for networking?
[11:07] <slie> thank you!@
[11:07] <ikonia> Pinpon: why though is a different matter, as your job looks simple and clean
[11:08] <ikonia> antony: ##networking ?
[11:08] <Pumpkin-> cylex: "sh +x" runs a script with "sh", and prints each command to STDERR before running it. Useful for debugging shell scripts.
[11:08] <cylex> ok, thanks :>
[11:10] <kay_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/586408/ who can help me to solve this problem?

[11:45] <alkaliv2> cylex: probably gufw or firestarter
[11:46] <airdem> hello i had a problem installing ubuntu 10.10 - everythiong went fine but the installer was unable to install the bootloader. i tryed to manually install grub2 via ubuntu live cd but now booting my pc i just get into a "grub>" bash. no menü
[11:46] <cylex> alkaliv2: ok i'll look that up
[11:46] <bibic682> Hello, How cab I easily change my color depth in 10.10 to 16 bit from 24 ?
[11:49]  * spyrox is back, after being killed by screensaver >_>
[11:50] <cylex> Is Firestarter gui firewall?
[11:50] <roy_m> Hi, I am keen to know whether the Realtek RTL81xx driver in linux supports jumboframes. Is this the correct place to ask? If so can someone with with a Realtek RTL81xx network card issue a "sudo ifconfig eth0 mtu 9000". Caution: be prepared for a 4 sec internet dropout while linux rediscovers the your real MTU.
[11:50] <ikonia> cylex: it's a gui for iptables
[11:50] <alkaliv2> Yes, firestarter is the gui to IPTables
[11:50] <ikonia> spyrox: don't need /away /back messages please
[11:51] <Newbee> hey guys
[11:51] <spyrox> ikonia: Ok, sorry. Can you help btw?
[11:51] <ikonia> spyrox: with what ?
[11:51] <spyrox> I'm having issues getting my wireless to pick up DHCP using iwconfig and dhclient
[11:51] <Newbee> how can I find out which of my certificates is used by network-manager to set up my wireless?
[11:52] <ikonia> spyrox: just use gnome network manager to configre your wirless, it should be easy then
[11:52] <Newbee> I told him to use system certificates and it works, but I want to know which of them is used.
[11:52] <spyrox> Can't. It's for a .sh script to be run for rebuilding netbooks
[11:52] <bibic682> anyone up on changing color depth in 10.10. When I try to edit Xorg there is nothing there. I was able to edit that in 9.10
[11:53] <ikonia> spyrox: so what's the actual problem, test it in phases, first script making the wirless connection, then script getting the ip address via dhcp, then put in error checking
[11:53] <zee313> Is there any compiler for Java? I want to learn that language . But don't know which compiler will be used here in UBUNTU
[11:54] <ikonia> zee313: javac
[11:55] <alkaliv2> bibic682: are you attempting to edit the xorg.conf or the new X11 setup under /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
[11:55] <spyrox> ikonia: I can use iwconfig to set information and also put info in /etc/network/interfaces. However, iwconfig doesn't show the essid when i set it to the wireless I want to use - but it will if i put in anything else
[11:56] <ikonia> spyrox: then it's doubtful it's connecting
[11:56] <bibic682> alkaliv2: I just need the right file to edit I guess to change the color depth to 16
[11:57] <alkaliv2> check this path for me and help me finish it according to your setup by tabbing over /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-  ?

[12:18] <Da|Mummy> how do i change my wifi encryption to WPA TKIP?
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> Dannyd:  some sort of desktop 'widgit/gadget' theres various ways to do it..
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> Dannyd: gdesklets, opera widgits, xclock,
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> google widgits..  it depends on your speciric needs.
[12:19] <Dr_Willis> or was it google gadgets? i forget...
[12:19] <Dannyd> Dr_Willis: there is xclock, but its kind of wierd for digital and it does not refresh
[12:19] <Dr_Willis> !info xclock
[12:19] <Dannyd> im using 10.04
[12:19] <cylex> when is the next ubuntu comming out?
[12:19] <Dr_Willis> why does it have to be moveable? if it dosent matter that much. You could use Conky.
[12:19] <jatt> !release
[12:20] <Dr_Willis> cylex:  the version # of ubuntu IS the 'date' of release.. next release is 11.04 -: 2011, 4th month.

[12:22] <spyridon> how can install drivers for Ati x800 in ubuntu 10.10?
[12:22] <jatt> the ati drivers suck
[12:23] <spyridon> and what can i do it?
[12:23] <alkaliv2> I don't think that was an answer...
[12:23] <tarvid> how do I enable and disable unity
[12:23] <jatt> use the radeon driver
[12:23] <Dr_Willis> Dannyd:  theres the wmclock and otejhr windowmaker 'panel type applets' that are in the repos that can do all sorts of neat tricks also. or gkrellm system monitor.
[12:24] <jatt> the open source one, the proprietary is of no value
[12:24] <spyridon> i dont have 3d wirh radeon at x800

[12:30] <aib> how can I configure how GDM runs the X server, or, more importantly, which Xserver it runs?
[12:31] <B9> I am unsure if anybody answered my query, i need help with a gui to search my hard disk, the one installed on my netbook 10.10 is playing up, i would appreciate some help, i prefer NOT to do a new install of OS
[12:31] <ikonia>  B9 I have already asked you, whatp happened/did you do to break it
[12:31] <alkaliv2> B9: do you need a search tool or the one you are using is acting up?
[12:32] <Dannyd> I think i was asking the wrong question...how can i get a notification every 2 minutes on my desktop?
[12:32] <B9> ikonia: i was helping someone set up a google account here and then i couldn't find any answers in the history, please forgive me... the i have in 10.10 has become corrupted
[12:32] <cylex> aib: disable, autologin and you can select which xserver you want to run
[12:32] <Dannyd> sorry ohsix:  and Dr_Willis:
[12:33] <ikonia> B9: what did you do, what happned to make it fail
[12:33] <B9> ikonia: it has become associated with images ONLY
[12:33] <ikonia> B9: no, what happened, what did you do to cause this problem
[12:34] <Dannyd> Dr_Willis: are you still there?
[12:34] <UcefKH> hi
[12:34] <alkaliv2> Dannyd: Did you look at the hampster applet for gnome?
[12:34] <Dmindz> I have a question about drivers to my dark knight ati 1 gb radeon 4870 card, last time i installed ubuntu, like 8.10 or something it refused higher resolutions and set the graphics quality lower than it should. Then I read something about certain commercial drivers not available to linux for certain cards. Thus I wonder, is this still the case?
[12:34] <B9> ikonia: i cannot answer that with full knowledge, to my knowledge i personally have done nothing to make the change... i have systematically had many aspects of the 10.10 gui of the os drop away... i no longer have the panel on the right... i am unsure what its technical name is
[12:35] <aib> cylex: Do you mean desktop/display manager as in GNOME vs KDE? I mean ~/xorg/bin/Xorg vs /usr/bin/Xorg
[12:35] <Dmindz> It may sound stupid, but this is the only reason I´m not currently using ubuntu
[12:35] <ThinkT510> !ati | Dmindz
[12:35] <Dannyd> alkaliv2: is it not in the repositories?
[12:35] <Dmindz> ubottu: thank you!
[12:35] <Dr_Willis> Dannyd:  hmm?
[12:36] <Dannyd> alkaliv2:  ok just found it
[12:36] <tarvid> after natty updates, I have no menus and panels
[12:36] <B9> ikonia: the panel on the left, please forgive me, the one with all the shortcuts to applications
[12:36] <Logan_> !thanks | Dmindz
[12:36] <ThinkT510> !natty | tarvid
[12:36] <alkaliv2> Dannyd: Awesome.  I know it allows for notifications.  I hope it does what you need it to.
[12:36] <cylex> AIB: YES

[12:36] <Dmindz> :D
[12:37] <UcefKH> any one know how i can install an app not in /usr/bin/ but in an other partition
[12:37] <cylex> aib: upon login it lets you select which option you want to use, like kde, gnome
[12:37] <alkaliv2> UcefKH: You could build it from source
[12:37] <Dmindz> But that link actually didn´t work
[12:37] <B9> alkaliv2: i need a search tool, the one I have is acting up, do you recommend one?
[12:37] <aib> cylex: I need to change the _X_server_, not the desktop manager
[12:38] <alkaliv2> B9: I can strongly recommend beagle search tool
[12:38] <UcefKH> i cant cause i have a bundle file its VMware workstation

[12:42] <Lantizia> Hey is there any way to test if sudo was used to run a script (i.e. I want to warn them NOT to use sudo but to use real root)
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> !info vlc
[12:42] <SupeR_NovA> Logan_,  ok
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> SupeR_NovA:  where did that version of vlc come from? 1.1.4 is the latest in the repos.
[12:43] <alkaliv2> B9: They have stopped working on beagle so "pinot" and "tracker" are two viable options.
[12:43] <Star_Light> hello
[12:43] <Star_Light> can i ask something about irc?
[12:43] <B9> alkaliv2: sudo apt-get install beagle didn't work, Synaptic returned Catfish for a Beagle search are they one and the same?
[12:44] <Logan_> Star_Light: those questions are for #freenode
[12:44] <ThinkT510> Lantizia: it is advisable to use sudo to accomplish root tasks, why do you want them to use root?
[12:44] <alkaliv2> B9: They are similar programs yes
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> Lantizia:  check the Enviroment variables  I think  if ran as the  user. theres 2 that will be differnt. then if it was ran by sudo.
[12:44] <Lantizia> Dr_Willis, the environment variables just tell me root is running it - which is techncially true... but via sudo
[12:44] <Logan_> !root | Lantizia
[12:45] <B9> alkaliv2: i like the name of Beagle :-( are Pinot and Tracker forks of Beagle?
[12:45] <Dr_Willis> Lantizia:  if your script wont work properly when used  via sudo.. i would think your script needs fixed.
[12:45] <alkaliv2> Lmao ubottu
[12:45] <Dr_Willis> Lantizia:  theres other variables I recall   check output of the 'set' command.
[12:45] <Lantizia> Logan_, trigger happy are we?
[12:45] <alkaliv2> I know he's a bot but that was funny
[12:46] <UcefKH> yo
[12:46] <alkaliv2> B9: Beagle was the best search in existence for awhile but unfortunately there are no longer working on it.  But catfish is an alternative that you can use
[12:46] <alkaliv2> sorry, that was very opinionated
[12:46] <catphish> is it possible to manually add an apt signing key by uploading a file
[12:46] <UcefKH> use CMD in Shell unix to search things
[12:46] <UcefKH> find *.*
[12:47] <B9> alkaliv2: i appreciate your opinion grounded in personal experience
[12:47] <Lantizia> Dr_Willis, if part of the scripts job is to delete the very user your logged in as (the non-root user) then what do you expect?  it's gotta run as real root!
[12:47] <Star_Light> why /dns cmd isnt working in others servers?
[12:47] <Star_Light> anybody knows?
[12:47] <ikonia> Star_Light: what command
[12:47] <Star_Light> -> /dns <host>
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> Lantizia:  your user is deleting himself? thats rather.. weird.
[12:47] <ikonia> Star_Light: that's not a command
[12:48] <Lantizia> Dr_Willis, not weird if your not logged in as that user
[12:48] <Star_Light> ikonia if run this command here gives me your ip
[12:48] <ikonia> Star_Light: oh, you mean in irc, ask in #freenode
[12:48] <Star_Light> ok
[12:48] <alkaliv2> you may like this.  I can alway appreciate a good screenshot http://screenshots.debian.net/package/catfish
[12:48] <ThinkT510> Lantizia: why would you want to delete the user you're logged in as?
[12:49] <Dr_Willis> Lantizia:  you just said you were logged in as  that user..  but all i can suggest is to check the output of the 'set' command. I seem to recall a variable for the user running somthing, then some other one that was differnt if a command was ran via sudo.
[12:49] <ThinkT510> Lantizia: sorry, misread your post
[12:49] <Lantizia> ThinkT510, Dr_Willis, I don't! grrrr! My script deletes whatever user 1000 is and remakes it differently... so the script has to be ran as _real_ non-sudo root to do that or you might be running it from the user in question
[12:50] <B9> alkaliv2: i have installed Catfish and have searched, very happy, fanX; while i am at it, do you recommend an application to rip CDs i have been using a plugin on Banshee but it is problematic as it doesn't always pull info from Musicbrainz...
[12:50] <Lantizia> Dr_Willis, ok how do I check the output of sed when running it via sudo?  (sudo set, and sudo bash set... both don't work)
[12:51] <Dr_Willis> Lantizia:  some info about finding if ran as sudo/root at -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=54289
[12:51] <edwinkcw> how to setup a network printer with cups via https protocol?
[12:52] <Lantizia> Dr_Willis, that just checks if your root! ggrrrr
[12:52] <moi> i need a trainer to train  me o r be my mentor
[12:53] <ThinkT510> moi: you applying for gsoc?
[12:53] <alkaliv2> B9: I personally use sound-juicer (its the audio cd extractor in the sound & video category)
[12:53] <moi> what is gsoc
[12:53] <Lantizia> I'll rephrase... When running a script using sudo it obviously runs as root... but is there anyway I can make the realise sudo was used to gain root?
[12:54] <ThinkT510> moi: google summer of code
[12:54] <Lantizia> ^make the script
[12:54] <B9> alkaliv2: are you happy with its functionality & design? or do you have no basis for comparison and you use it because it is tried n true?
[12:55] <moi> no i've been running away from programming all my life but i see i need to be able to program to use shells so i need help to learn
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> Lantizia:  there seems to be a "SUDO_USER" variable
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> > SUDO_USER='willis'
[12:55] <alkaliv2> No I've used a couple other programs such as K3B but it's light, made for gnome specifically, and it hasn't had a problem pulling in my CDDB database names.  I've never used Banshee though to be fair
[12:56] <ikonia> moi: many good guides out ther
[12:56] <ThinkT510> !terminal | moi
[12:56] <brontosaurusrex> moi: what would you like to 'program'?
[12:56] <jpds> moi: http://tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/index.html
[12:56] <aib> Lantizia: sudo, as opposed to what? su? su bash? sudo csh? -- why do you want to know if sudo was used?
[12:57] <alkaliv2> B9: No I've used a couple other programs such as K3B but it's light, made for gnome specifically,
[12:57] <alkaliv2> and it hasn't had a problem pulling in my CDDB database names.  I've never used Banshee though to be fair.
[12:57] <moi> i want to be able to function as a system admin on unix servers i currently do hardware support
[12:57] <moi> on windos
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> moi:  you dont really need to be able to program to use 'shells' - but it can help to know a little programiing.
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> moi:  you lean as you go along and discover tools you need to do the tasks you want to do.
[12:59] <bonjoyee> Lantizia: on pretty simple way is to scan the users .bash_history file and locate your script..but it is subject to easy manipulation...
[12:59] <B9> alkaliv2: thanx so much for your help, i will install Sound Juicer & give it a go... i like Banshee and I scrobble to Last FM, i may be able to get Sound Juicer to scrobble with Last FM as well... i am really happy with Banshee only the ripping component is disappointing...
[12:59] <bonjoyee> one*
[12:59] <moi> so doc where do i start
[12:59] <Sonne> bonjoyee, that wouldn't work, .bash_history is written on logout
[12:59] <Dr_Willis> moi:  ive no idea what it is you want to learn.. but if you are going to be using BASH.. thers 1000's of bash guides out there to begin with.
[12:59] <alkaliv2> B9: I'm glad I could help.  Did you get your panel back by the way? With the icons?
[13:00] <eoin_> how do you log out of a (malfunctioning) X session from a terminal?
[13:01] <Sonne> sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[13:01] <eoin_> ie no log out button/menu item
[13:01] <B9> alkaliv2: no, i have not got the panel back with the icons...
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> eoin_:  if you can get to the console. you could do a 'sudo service gdm restart' and force X to restart.
[13:01] <eoin_> thanks Sonne
[13:01] <Lantizia> aib, as in they're properly logged in as root... none of that stuff
[13:01] <bonjoyee> eoin_: ctrl+alt+f1
[13:01] <Lantizia> bonjoyee, hardly call that simple
[13:01] <terry> moi: This might be a place to start:  http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Bourne_Shell_Scripting/Running_Commands
[13:01] <bonjoyee> Lantizia: why?
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> Lantizia:  if a user uses sudo. then the sudo env has a variable such as -> SUDO_USER='willis',  i dobnt think a direct root login has that variable set.
[13:02] <moi> thanks doc i got bash for biggners
[13:02] <Lantizia> bonjoyee, it's insane lol - what if they have HISTFILE unset?!
[13:02] <moi> i will use that for now
[13:02] <Lantizia> bonjoyee, for a start history isn't saved until they log out
[13:02] <brontosaurusrex> what is a good logic to add another disk to a server? i moved pretty much everything data intensive to /home/specificuser, but say/home/specificuser/sites is still taking mucho space, would it be good to just reroute that path to a new drive or... ?
[13:02] <alkaliv2> B9: Give this a try keystrokes Alt+F2 and in the box that opens up type gnome-panel
[13:02] <Lantizia> Dr_Willis, ah cool - will have a check
[13:03] <bonjoyee> Lantizia: can /var/log/auth.log help?
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> Lantizia:  man sudo -> mentions other variables that are set also
[13:04] <Ileden> Hi! How can I tell whether my (x)ubuntu is using ndiswrapper or not?
[13:04] <guampa> brontosaurusrex: maybe #ubuntu-server could suit more, but anyway it more or les boils down to just add a bigger disk for /home or move/link the big area to where you have free space
[13:04] <brontosaurusrex> guampa: well, its just about bigger disk, not really server specific question
[13:04] <Dr_Willis> Lantizia:  so it seems teh SUDO_UID and UID and other variables would differ if ran as sudo.   one would not exist if ran as root.
[13:05] <Lantizia> Dr_Willis, cool thanks
[13:05] <terry> Ileden: NOt sure but it may show up as process. Try  ps aux |grep ndiswrapper
[13:05] <brontosaurusrex> basically the question would be: move and reroute entire user to a new drive or just certain folders that belong to that user, is there any big difference?
[13:05] <alkaliv2> Ileden: Are you using it for your wireless card, flash, or something else?
[13:06] <Ileden> alkaliv2: wireless
[13:06] <jarnos>  Can you upgrade via update manager even if there are PPA repositories in use?
[13:07] <guampa> brontosaurusrex: there isn't practical differences in the big majority of cases, you can link the dirs or submount them with mount --bind
[13:07] <alkaliv2> What does your networking icon in the panel say?  Is your wireless card a choice?
[13:07] <Ileden> alkaliv2: terry: no results (except the command itself)
[13:08] <terry> Ileden: It may be a module. Try: lsmod |grep ndis
[13:08] <Ileden> terry: "ndiswrapper           184207  0"
[13:09] <B9> alkaliv2:  it didn't fire the panel, will it now be present if and when i restart? or did i do it wrong, i didn't run in terminal i ran the file?
[13:09] <terry> Ileden: Well, there you go.
[13:09] <terry> Ileden: Is the wireless card working ok?
[13:09] <Ileden> alkaliv2: "a choice"? yes, wireless networks are listed in the connection manager
[13:09] <Ileden> terry: nope. that's the problem.
[13:09] <alkaliv2> Ileden: I suppose it is working
[13:09] <Ileden> terry: I was hoping using ndiswrapper would fix the probloem.
[13:09] <terry> Ileden: iwconfig    #what does that tell you?
[13:10] <Ileden> alkaliv2: no. I have major problems connecting to my home network. works fine on dualboot windows.
[13:10] <brontosaurusrex> and another q: actually i have two drives left to put into this server, is there a built in valuable way to raid1 them (the mirror)?
[13:10] <alkaliv2> B9: Try Alt+F2 and type pkill gnome-panel
[13:10] <brontosaurusrex> this server is karmic
[13:10] <alkaliv2> Ileden: What is the wireless cards information?
[13:11] <Ileden> terry: iwconfig tells nothing unusual. doesn't reference ndiswrapper in any way.
[13:11] <alkaliv2> And does it show in the ubuntu restricted drivers section?
[13:11] <terry> Ileden: iwconfig | pastebinit
[13:11] <terry> Ileden: And send us resulting URL
[13:11] <Ileden> alkaliv2: Atheros Communications Inc. AR2427 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)
[13:11] <guampa> !raid
[13:11] <terry> Ileden: Atheros should not need ndiswrapper.
[13:12] <Ileden> terry: yeah. but it works perfect on windows, not on linux.
[13:12] <terry> Ileden: Is this a laptop?
[13:13] <alkaliv2> Ileden: "uname -r" in a terminal for me
[13:13] <B9> alkaliv2: i am really happy with ALT F2 thanx, killed it.... then tried your first command but still no cigar... i will leave it for now, i am not really sure i want the panel back at the moment... i will work without it for a few days, i like not having the clutter, thanx for the new skills...
[13:14] <valorb> Hi my VPS host uses a weird build of Ubuntu where you _can_ login as root. What should I do to disable this? Add my username as a sudoer and remove the root password?
[13:14] <valorb> Or disable the root account?
[13:14] <terry> Ileden: What is make and moddle of your laptop?
[13:14] <bob__539> ubottu: I have a IDE raid card and BIOS knows it (left over from windows) and ubuntu (10.10) recognises it (CD-rom)
[13:14] <bob__539> sorry
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> valorb:  safest would be to add your user to the sudoers list. And leave the root login alone. You dont want to accidently break the thing.
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> valorb:  then get into the sudo habbit.
[13:15] <alkaliv2> B9: Definitely, I am glad to help.  If there is anything else let us know.
[13:15] <terry> Ileden: Is your system updated and current?
[13:16] <terry> *model  not moddel
[13:17] <moi> hanks teery
[13:17] <valorb> Dr_Willis: at the moment I do su - instead of sudo
[13:17] <valorb> isnt this basically the same? :P
[13:17] <terry> moi: NP
[13:17] <Ileden> soory brb, baby calls.
[13:17] <Dr_Willis> theres more to sudo then just geting root access..  valorb
[13:17] <alkaliv2> That's an outrageous statement
[13:17] <riptly> Hi, I'm trying to record both my Microphone and sounds from software (say from youtube.com via Firefox), but I can't get it to record both at the same time. Does anyone know how I could accomplish this?
[13:17] <Dr_Willis> valorb:  su - i think is simile to sudo -i,
[13:19] <bonjoyee> riptly: ardour + jackctl could help...
[13:19] <riptly> bonjoyee: Thanks, I'll google it :)
[13:19] <terry> valorb: su -   is not working for you.  Right?
[13:20] <obiwahn> is there a way to start windows boerderless in gnome
[13:20] <obiwahn> like firefox
[13:20] <alkaliv2> uninstall the windows manager?
[13:20] <Dr_Willis> obiwahn:  compiz has some settings that might let you select that on a per window basis.. but ive not looked into that in ages.
[13:21] <obiwahn> usually i use e17 and now installed ubuntu/gnome on my girlfriendss netbook
[13:21] <terry> Ileden: lsmod |grep ath
[13:22] <obiwahn> and the decoration is really quite annoying:)
[13:22] <obiwahn> Dr_Willis: how do i find out what kind of wm i am running?
[13:22] <alkaliv2> if it's ubuntu it's metacity
[13:22] <alkaliv2> gnome and metacity
[13:22] <Dr_Willis> obiwahn:  compiz is the default window manager  used when using the fancy 3d effects
[13:22] <alkaliv2> oh, wrong again
[13:22] <alkaliv2> 0 for 2
[13:22] <Dr_Willis> metacity - the non fancy 3d stuff.
[13:22] <B9> alkaliv2: VERY happy with Sound Juicer, perfect
[13:22] <phoenixsampras> HALP!! samba aint working? anyone have the default smb.conf?
[13:23] <obiwahn> no fancy cubes:)
[13:23] <alkaliv2> B9: It does what you want it to?
[13:23] <Dr_Willis> obiwahn:  if using metacity - then i dont think you can do it.
[13:23] <phoenixsampras> Ubuntu aint fancy, OSx is
[13:23] <obiwahn> the do it in the netbook edition
[13:23] <obiwahn> wahh i hate loking at gconf
[13:24] <alkaliv2> we'll pass it along at the next staff meeting
[13:24] <obiwahn> probably i have to change the settings
[13:24] <obiwahn> start the app
[13:24] <Fuchs> obiwahn: you can remove the window boarders, either with maximus for maximized windows, or with devilspie for a given set of windows
[13:24] <mechanarchy> does anyone have any idea why Ubuntu would decide to suddenly make my root file system read-only?
[13:24] <obiwahn> and restore settings:(
[13:24] <Fuchs> obiwahn: or just use a metacity theme with no boards, to affect all windows.
[13:24] <valorb> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WordPress
[13:24] <valorb> im following this ^
[13:24] <valorb> does this install mysql php5 etc?
[13:24] <Dr_Willis> Hitting F11 in Firefox = maxamizes with no borders..
[13:24] <alkaliv2> mechanarchy: what does your /etc/fstab say about the root partition?
[13:24] <B9> alkaliv2: yep, there was one track i wanted to rip on a disc that wouldn't in Banshee for some reason, but it has in Sound Juicer, i changed preferences to FLAC from OGG and i also like how you can customize filename, very pleased with that functionality.
[13:24] <terry> obiwahn: ubuntu = gnome kubuntu = kde  xubuntu = xfce
[13:24] <obiwahn> hey that maximus is nice
[13:24] <valorb> the "wordpress" package install this?

[13:25] <mechanarchy> alkaliv2: it's from the ubuntu install, also says # / was on /dev/sdc1 during installation
[13:26] <alkaliv2> B9: I'm with you, I rip all of my music as high quality ogg files. And sound-juicer does it right everytime and in the format I like. And I
[13:26] <alkaliv2> am picky :)
[13:26] <alkaliv2> mechanarchy: is this your first boot and it's read only?
[13:27] <mechanarchy> alkaliv2: No, I've been running for over a week. I restarted it and the "read only" issue disappeared, as did the immense log full of read fails of various sectors in /dev/sdc and /dev/sdc1
[13:27] <terry> mechanarchy: That is normal.
[13:27] <terry> mechanarchy: That is normal.  (The fstab entry)
[13:27] <mechanarchy> terry: Thanks for the clarification, I was wondering :P
[13:28] <terry> mechanarchy: Sounds like a hardware issue.
[13:28] <mechanarchy> the drive in question, /dev/sdc, is an SSD; and while the SMART information for SSDs is notoriously unreliable, Disk Utility is reporting 416 reallocated sectors and somewhere abouts 17 million for "read error rate"
[13:29] <obiwahn> Fuchs: devilspie is awesome:) thanks
[13:29] <mechanarchy> terry: I am thinking replacement under warranty. Does this sound like a suitable plan of action?
[13:30] <terry> mechanarchy: Oh, I dono.  I'm not really a HD expert but would get a (manufacturer suggested) diagnostic tool to run on it.
[13:30] <terry> mechanarchy: And backup your data
[13:31] <satya> quit
[13:31] <mechanarchy> terry: Will do for backup; tried looking for diagnostic tools before but not really much luck. seems like my computer is nothing but bad luck
[13:32] <bibic682> hello, can someone give me easy instructions on changing color depth in 10.10. The xorg file is blank
[13:33] <dschuett> I just did a re-install of one of my ubuntu 10.04 machines. Now i can't ssh into it. I get the error  WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! It gives me the fingerprint and the file, but the file is encrypted, so i can't delete it
[13:33] <Kimmen> dschuett: you have to remove the line that belongs to the remote host in trusted keys
[13:35] <aruns> erUSUL, hey thanks for your help with my sound mic configuration, it works now !
[13:36] <dschuett> Kimmen: I know this, but /root/.ssh/known_hosts is encrypted, so i can't remove the host if i can't find it in the encryption
[13:37] <Kimmen> dschuett: just remove the correct line in ~/.ssh/known_hosts
[13:37] <alkaliv2> bibic682: the file at /etc/X11/xorg.conf is blank?  Does ubuntu start up?
[13:37] <Kimmen> always worked for me
[13:37] <terry> bibic682: See what   xrandr   says.
[13:38] <dschuett> Kimmen: how do i know what is the "correct" line?
[13:38] <ZieLonKa> hi again... ive got a problem with compiling a 3com-driver... can anybody help me?
[13:39] <bibic682> alkaliv2: Yes it starts up I'm in 10.10 now. The old way of adding a line in the xorg config file doesn't work there isn't one
[13:39] <Kimmen> dschuett: when you try to connect via ssh it will tell you which line number
[13:39] <bibic682> what is xrandr
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> !xrandr
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> bbigras:  a set of commands and method for manipulating the screen res's and other settings in a dymamic fashion
[13:40] <ZieLonKa> can nobody help me?
[13:41] <bibic682> is there a file I can edit to change the color depth?
[13:41] <Dr_Willis> dschuett:  encrypted? it has one line for each host. You could edit the file and remove the host line. or remove the whole file.
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> bibic682:  normally its set to 32bit by default i think. Ive not needed to alter color depth in years.
[13:42] <alkaliv2> bibic682: Do you have a nvidia card?
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> ZieLonKa:  why are you compiling a driver for that?
[13:43] <ZieLonKa> because someone told me, i need to get my nic working.
[13:43] <ZieLonKa> +to*
[13:43] <bibic682> Dr_Willis: It was set to 24 from install and I need 16 because I have an older ati PCI 9250 that runs slow video at 24, but ok at 16 and I can't see much difference
[13:44] <Dr_Willis> ZieLonKa:  Most wired nic drivers are allready incluided.. and i would think most 3com drivers are allready there also.
[13:44] <bibic682> I always run 16 bit even in windows, I get better video performance
[13:44] <Dr_Willis> ZieLonKa:  this is a wired card? or wireless?
[13:44] <ZieLonKa> Dr_Willis: this is a wired card.
[13:44] <ljsoftnet> hi people
[13:45] <bibic682> alkaliv2: this is an ATI card
[13:46] <ZieLonKa> Dr_Willis: i also thought, that linux got the drivers, lspci shows me the device, but ifconfig does not show eth1 and when i try to 'ifconfig eth1 up' the interface, I get a 'no such device'
[13:46] <dombnexen> hi...how i can install one theme for login?
[13:46] <terry> bibic682: lspci |grep -i vga
[13:46] <Dr_Willis> ZieLonKa:  you may need to determine the exact chipset.
[13:46] <Dr_Willis> ZieLonKa:  ive rarely found a Wired NIC that dident work from the beginning.
[13:47] <terry> bibic682: xrandr
[13:47] <Dr_Willis> dombnexen:  you mean change the GDM login screen settings?
[13:47] <Dr_Willis> ZieLonKa:  keep it in the channel. I may have to l eave at any time.

[13:50] <Dr_Willis> ZieLonKa:  pastebin the lspci output for the channel to see for starters.
[13:51] <Dr_Willis> dombnexen:  its a hassle to 'theme' gdm2. you can change the wallpaper easially enough. or tweak a few other settings.. and there are a FEW themes out for it. but its not as easy to tweak as the old gdm.
[13:52] <terry> ZieLonKa: Are you sure it's not already working?  ifconfig | pastebinit

[14:02] <wart___> thanks
[14:02] <obiwahn> oobie: there is no such thing as best linux
[14:02] <Dr_Willis> oobie:  totally depends on your needs.

[14:07] <Dr_Willis> bibic682:  they are in the repositorues. search for 'xrandr' theres several i recall

[14:10] <Dr_Willis> Jonta_:  you can make a 'full/normal' install to a flash drive. and it will be the same as if it was on a hard drive.
[14:10] <dziadu> dziadu: to do something that I can install other packages - now everythinkg stops because of wrong libc-bin version
[14:10] <ruan> helpmeplease: disk usage analyser
[14:10] <Ileden> terry: lsmod returns nothing with ath in it
[14:10] <MechanisM> Dr_Willis: mount /media/Murka Maxtor/ubuntu/disks/root.disk /home/mechanism/wubi -o loop
[14:10] <Jonta_> Dr_Willis: I know. But what about customization? From USB afterwards?
[14:10] <Dr_Willis> MechanisM:  watch out for spaces in the path.
[14:10] <helpmeplease> I mean a graphical app which shows a tree view and space occupied by files/directories
[14:10] <helpmeplease> ruan:
[14:10] <terry> Ileden: What did you load into ndiswrapper?
[14:11] <Jonta_> helpmeplease: KDirstat?
[14:11] <helpmeplease> you tell the ppackage name., so i can apt-get
[14:11] <Dr_Willis> Jonta_:  if you do a normal install.. its the same as any other install.  add/rmove what you want.
[14:11] <MechanisM> Dr_Willis: but this disk have spaces in name lol
[14:11] <Jonta_> Dr_Willis: Thanks.
[14:11] <alkaliv2> bibic682: I just installed arandr and it doesn't give the option to change color depth.  Sorry about that.
[14:11] <Dr_Willis> MechanisM:  quote the path.
[14:11] <MechanisM> ok
[14:11] <MechanisM> good idea
[14:11] <terry> Ileden: iwconfig | pastebinit
[14:11] <Ileden> terry: the ath win xp drivers, iirc
[14:11] <ruan> helpmeplease: disk usage analyser comes with ubuntu
[14:11] <ruan> helpmeplease: i'll get package name tho
[14:12] <ruan> helpmeplease: baobab
[14:12] <ruan> !info baobab
[14:12] <terry> Ileden: iwconfig | pastebinit  #And send resulting URL?
[14:12] <MechanisM> Dr_Willis: segmentation error
[14:13] <Ileden> terry: iwconfig pastebin.ubuntu.com/586447
[14:13] <Dr_Willis> MechanisM:  thats interesting if mount is seg faulting...
[14:13] <MechanisM> mount '/media/Murka Maxtor/ubuntu/disks/root.disk' /home/mechanism/wubi -o loop
[14:13] <helpmeplease> ruan: Jonta_ thanks I will try them now, I am freeing some space to install them
[14:13] <Dr_Willis> MechanisM:  be sure the dir exists.. and you may need to be doing it with 'sudo'
[14:13] <ruan> helpmeplease: you don't have 3 mb? :o
[14:13] <Jonta_> helpmeplease: Sure thing. Good luck.
[14:13] <terry> Ileden: Do  you see wlan0 listed in the network manager?
[14:13] <MechanisM> I'm under root and it's exists
[14:14] <helpmeplease> ruan: No, its completely filled 100 %
[14:14] <ruan> helpmeplease: wow
[14:14] <Dr_Willis> helpmeplease:  even if filled.. theres supposed tobe 5% reserved for root ussage.
[14:14] <Ileden> terry: yes. and I can connect to pretty much any other network than my home. and to even to my home, it works about 50% of times.
[14:14] <Dr_Willis> helpmeplease:  you could clean out your apt cache  if space is that tight
[14:14] <ruan> 5% for ext
[14:14] <Ileden> terry: same with either ath9k and ndiswrapper (assuming I'm now running it)
[14:15] <Ileden> terry: and with dualboot win7, it connects always. also any other computer connects to my home wlan just fine.
[14:15] <MechanisM> Dr_Willis: I'm as root: root@MechanisM:/home/mechanism# mount '/media/Murka Maxtor/ubuntu/disks/root.disk' /home/mechanism/wubi -o loop and dir wubi is exists
[14:15] <Dr_Willis> MechanisM:  forum theread on the topic -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1037874
[14:15] <albert748> so many people here...
[14:15] <terry> Ileden: lsmod |grep ath  returned nothing, so I would assume the atheros driver is not in use....
[14:15] <freectn> 有没有中文的
[14:16] <ThinkT510> !zh | freectn
[14:16] <ruan> helpmeplease: could be a log that went on for hours without stopping, but even that is rare
[14:16] <Dr_Willis> albert748:  actually its a slow day.
[14:16] <albert748> freectn, I'm here
[14:16] <terry> Ileden: Oh so you can connect to other wireless APs but not your home?
[14:16] <helpmeplease> ruan: could be coz this is a server. but trying to figure out the apt cache purge command, Dr willis told

[14:16] <Nomadicus> Hello . . . I am trying to reset my KDE color settings.  Yesterday I changed OS from Debian Stable to Ubuntu 10.10; I migrated the home directory from the previous install; there have been some errors but mostly everything went smoothly.  The biggest problem is resetting the KDE color scheme . . .
[14:16] <Nomadicus> . . . deleting the .kde and .qt configuration directories did not reset the colorscheme, there is something else holding it that I can't find;
[14:16] <Nomadicus>  any ideas?
[14:16] <Ileden> terry: the problem is limited to AND 1) this computer, 2) linux, 3) home network. All of those have no problems with any other configuration I've tried.
[14:17] <albert748> Dr_Willis, slow? what does it mean?
[14:17] <terry> Ileden: lsmod |grep ath  returned nothing, so I would assume ndiswrapper is in use
[14:17] <Dr_Willis> albert748:  ive seen 3000+ people in here. If you want to see a full and hectic channel.. come in here on the day of release of 11.04 I bet it will be crashing freenode :)
[14:17] <hzroot> greetings, I have some trouble with nvidia gt550M driver. When i change from generic driver to nvidia it it startx doesnt work
[14:17] <hzroot> is there any information about this? ubunut 10.10
[14:18] <sinisterstuf> hi, can someone please tell me how to setup an ident daemon? I've tried installing the ident2 and pident packages but I don't think it works
[14:18] <alkaliv2> hzroot: Did you reboot after installing nvidia driver?
[14:18] <Ileden> terry: ok. well, then that doesn't solve the problem either. it's not a problem with the ath9k then.
[14:18] <hzroot> yeap
[14:18] <albert748> Hi, guys, I'm come to here to ask some questions, I'm a developer. Does any one use StarDict? how's your feeling?
[14:18] <hzroot> alkaliv2:  but doesnt start
[14:19] <terry> Ileden: What is the essid of your home AP?
[14:19] <helpmeplease> Cleaned a bit of apt/cache, but still could not free anything. It says: E: Unable to synchronize mmap - msync (28: No space left on device) E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
[14:19] <Ileden> terry: btw, the wlan connection fails after authentication.
[14:19] <Dr_Willis> sinisterstuf:  could be you need to edit their config files. and resatrt the service. Ive not seen a need for an identd service in years..
[14:19] <Ileden> terry: "Sudenkorento", why?
[14:19] <albert748> Dr_Willis, yeah, 11.04 coming soon, I'll here that day if I have time. to see bing bong~~~lol
[14:19] <helpmeplease> anything i try to delete seems to immediately be gobbled up to 100% by something
[14:19] <alkaliv2> hzroot: Did you use the restricted driver tool in ubuntu to install it?
[14:20] <terry> Ileden: SO you do see it in the network-manager?  (THere is in fact a wlan0 entry showing in the network manager?) Yes... No...
[14:20] <sinisterstuf> thanks Dr_Willis…
[14:20] <drizt> hi. I wrote daemon on the python. I want to launch it with init.d script. How should to do it? If I use standard start-stop-daemon it wrong specifies status of daemon. have a look at http://fpaste.org/gUJe/
[14:20] <MechanisM> how to install ubuntu-tweak to natty?
[14:20] <iceroot> MechanisM: #ubuntu+1
[14:20] <hzroot> alkaliv2: yes. and that is the problem. when i install that driver and reboot. screen doesnt come.
[14:20] <Pici> MechanisM : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Natty/11.04 support/discussion.
[14:20] <Dr_Willis> MechanisM:  go to the ubuntu-tweak homepage. download its deb. is the normal way
[14:20] <albert748> MechanisM, you can download from it's website
[14:21] <Ileden> terry: yup, it's visigle. and even it connect just fine about 50% of times. though it phases in and out - restart won't help, but after a few hours it might work again, then again not
[14:21] <albert748> MechanisM, google it please
[14:21] <Pici> albert748: Please don't use that as an answer here.
[14:21] <alkaliv2> hzroot: you're using 10.10 I assume?
[14:21] <hzroot> yes i wrote
[14:21] <terry> Ileden: sudo apt-get install wicd
[14:21] <albert748> Pici, why?
[14:21] <Ileden> terry: agh, my daughter woke up yet again, gottago :(
[14:22] <Ileden> terry: thanks anyway
[14:22] <terry> ok
[14:23] <albert748> MechanisM, http://ubuntu-tweak.com/ , the author is my friend~lol
[14:23] <helpmeplease> Dr_Willis: ruan
[14:24] <MechanisM> albert748: tell him that it's not installable in natty
[14:24] <albert748> MechanisM, natty?
[14:24] <Kartagis> !grub2
[14:24] <MechanisM> it's asks python lover than 2.7 but in natty defauls is python 2.7

[14:24] <helpmeplease> Dr_Willis: ruan I tried to clean about 500 mb of cache og opera and still i dont see any free space through "df -h". I fear if i restart the debian would boot again. I am using debian by the way but resorted to this channel due to urgency
[14:24] <alkaliv2> hzroot: I'm looking into it
[14:25] <albert748> ThinkT510, ubottu, and all.... sorry
[14:25] <MechanisM> albert748: natty it's ubuntu 11.04
[14:25] <albert748> MechanisM, sorry....I'll tell him right now. I've used gentoo for a long time....
[14:26] <albert748> MechanisM, hi's not on gtalk. maybe I should call him
[14:26] <albert748> MechanisM, please wait
[14:27] <Dr_Willis> helpmeplease:  could be a run away log or somthing sucking down space. You may want to reboot and use a live cd to clean out the HD a bit. and reboot and monitor whats going on.
[14:27] <Dr_Willis> MechanisM:  theres a natty only version of Ubuntu-tweak :)
[14:27] <bonjoyee> helpmeplease: how did you clean the cache?
[14:27] <helpmeplease> bonjoyee:
[14:28] <MechanisM> Dr_Willis: where?
[14:28] <helpmeplease> bonjoyee: went to /var/cache/apt and dir "rm -r *"
[14:28] <Dr_Willis> MechanisM:  at the homepage. i just grabbed it..   the blog listed the url i think
[14:28] <Lachine> Good morning!   I need help formatting an external disk drive to nilfs2 format. I tried  mkfs.nilfs2 /dev/sdb1 without any success
[14:28] <MechanisM> 0.5.10 ?
[14:28] <erUSUL> Lachine: what error do you get?
[14:28] <albert748> MechanisM, hi, what's the wrong message you got?
[14:29] <Dr_Willis> MechanisM:  ubuntu-tweak_0.5.11-1~natty1_all.deb
[14:29] <alkaliv2> hzroot: How new is your laptop?  And did it work on another version of ubuntu?
[14:29] <pumeust> how do i run safe mode?
[14:29] <bonjoyee> helpmeplease: the correct way is "apt-get clean" as root...nonetheless..you said you cleaned the opera cache as well? how?
[14:29] <terry> helpmeplease: du -sk * | sort -n  <will list by file sizes, largest last>
[14:29] <albert748> MechanisM, Did your use twitter? maybe you can follow him from twitter, He always there.
[14:30] <MechanisM> albert748: ubuntu-tweak asked me unsupported dependency: python (< 2.7)
[14:30] <terry> helpmeplease: ls -lS |grep ^d   <will show directories sorted by size>
[14:30] <Lachine> error: cannot open device  /dev/sdb1
[14:30] <helpmeplease> bonjoyee: through opera preferencees
[14:30] <MechanisM> albert748: but I have python 2.7 and 2.6 too

[14:30] <aceps> Hi, does anyone know about replacing the gas lift on an office chair?
[14:31] <albert748> MechanisM, so you can't install it?
[14:31] <hzroot> alkaliv2: pretty new :) 1 day old
[14:31] <hzroot> alkaliv2: this is first install on that machine
[14:31] <bonjoyee> helpmeplease: then i don't think theres anything wrong...you could try what others are suggesting..or use the disk usage analyser (baobab)...
[14:31] <alkaliv2> hzroot: lol I'm seeing as much.  You might have to install these drivers from a binary source like the nvidia website
[14:31] <BluesKaj> aceps, doubt you'll find an answer here ... this is an ubuntu support chat
[14:32] <terry> helpmeplease: ls -lSr |grep ^d   <will show largest directories last>
[14:32] <Nomadicus> I am having trouble getting any cd/dvd burning software to recognize when I insert a blank disk, neither K3B or Braserso are capable of recording because they keep asking for blank disks, Nautilus seems to be able to acknowledge when blank media is inserted though.  What are proper procedures for trouble shooting this configuration?
[14:32] <hzroot> alkaliv2: do they avaible on nvidia site?
[14:33] <MechanisM> albert748: version from blog post: 0.9.11 is good now.
[14:33] <terry> Nomadicus: First, make sure the DVD blank you are inserting is supported by the hardware.
[14:33] <alkaliv2> hzroot: I'm looking, you'll have to check too.  I'm not sure what they are under.
[14:33] <ljsoftnet> Nomadicus is it external burner or internal?
[14:33] <MechanisM> 0.5.11 typo
[14:34] <terry> Nomadicus: I guess I should have said CD (rather than DVD).
[14:34] <helpmeplease> terry: thanks., omg the tmp directory seems to be using lots of disk space, do i just reboot, since i think i cannot remove anything from there.
[14:34] <albert748> MechanisM, you mean that the latest version fixed?
[14:35] <terry> helpmeplease: That might help, yes.
[14:35] <pumeust> can someone tell me how to run safe mode?
[14:35] <MechanisM> albert748: software center is buggin. so I installed it with dpkg -i
[14:35] <sysRPL> hello
[14:35] <Dr_Willis> pumeust:  when you boot up. the grub menu should have a recovery option. that what you are looking for?
[14:35] <MechanisM> albert748: yep in blog I found latest version for natty. but it was not noticed in home page.
[14:36] <Lachine> Anyone familiar with nilfs2 format?
[14:36] <albert748> MechanisM, lol, you should add ppa source to your source list, that's the point
[14:36] <sysRPL> has anyone here gotten 1080p video playback to work on ubuntu using hardware accellerated vdpau?
[14:36] <terry> pumeust: You should see it in the list when grub first comes up.
[14:36] <erUSUL> Lachine: did you used sudo with mkfs.nilfs ??
[14:36] <alkaliv2> hzroot: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[14:36] <alkaliv2> hzroot: try that command for now
[14:37] <Lachine> No......I'll try!
[14:37] <pumeust> Dr_Willis, when i reboot it just takes me to the login
[14:37] <terry> pumeust: Use the down arrow to navigate to it and just hit enter to boot.
[14:37] <sysRPL> i followed some steps to setup vdpau accelleration on 10.10, but when i play a 1080p mkv on vlc, it's too damn slow ... is there a way to check if vdpau through my hardware is actually being used?
[14:37] <Dr_Willis> pumeust:  so what are you truying to do exactly?
[14:37] <albert748> MechanisM, to ensure that stability, ubuntu will not use the latest version, ppa should your best friend
[14:37] <MechanisM> albert748: ubuntu-tweak not working properly in natty =(
[14:37] <Noobx> Can ubunutu be used to create DHCPv6 and DNSv6 ?
[14:37] <Dr_Willis> MechanisM:  its working fine here.. but im in #ubuntu+1 talking about it,.
[14:38] <terry> pumeust: If you just need to turn off the X server, you can do it on the fly.  service gdm stop
[14:38] <Pici> MechanisM: Please use #ubuntu+1 for all Natty support and discussion, it is off-topic for #ubuntu until it is released.
[14:38] <Guest93522> #sinistersounds
[14:38] <MechanisM> Dr_Willis: tried to unlock some options but not see any popups with enter password to unlock.
[14:39] <albert748> MechanisM, install from ppa still got error?
[14:39] <albert748> hi, guys, anyone use Stardict?
[14:39] <albert748> cjk people here?
[14:39] <hzroot> alkaliv2: doesnt that dont help :(
[14:40] <Lachine> ......it worked!........was too simple.....didn' t think of that.......newbie error.....thx erUSUL
[14:40] <MechanisM> albert748: where I can get it's ppa?
[14:40] <erUSUL> Lachine: no problem
[14:40] <pumeust> Dr_Willis,  my problem is i can only open files shortly after booting. after a while i cant open anything, so i was told to run safe mode and try fsck
[14:40] <Mantelis> Hello, I trying to configure my Integrated Video Card, but when I open /etc/X11 there is no xorg.conf, is this is normal and what should I do? Paste: http://paste.ubuntu.com/586454/
[14:40] <alkaliv2> hzroot: I can't even find a binary of your driver.  You may need to wait for a driver update for your card.
[14:41] <hzroot> ok i wll thnx for help.
[14:41] <terry> albert748: stardict is in the repos
[14:41] <Dr_Willis> pumeust:  you could use a live cd. and fsck the filesystems.
[14:41] <albert748> MechanisM, ppa:tualatrix/ppa
[14:42] <alkaliv2> hzroot: I apologize that I don't have an answer for it.  You just bought a computer that was TOO amazing :)
[14:42] <MechanisM> THNX
[14:42] <Dr_Willis> MechanisM:  fist thing ubuntu-tweak did here was ask to enable its PPA. :)
[14:42] <terry> pumeust: As Dr_Willis suggests, you need to do it from the live CD. (Not a good idea at all to run fsck on a filesystem you are running on.)
[14:42] <albert748> MechanisM, you can type command: add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa
[14:43] <MechanisM> yep I know thnxx
[14:43] <pumeust> Dr_Willis, oh yeah i forgot about live cd the person said to run safe mode or live cd
[14:43] <albert748> MechanisM, from terminal, and sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, all things done
[14:43] <Noobx> Can ISC dhcp 4.2.1 run on ubuntu?
[14:43] <hzroot> alkaliv2: thnx anyway : )
[14:43] <erUSUL> !info dhcpd
[14:43] <erUSUL> !find dhcp
[14:44] <pumeust> terry wow thanks for letting me know
[14:44] <albert748> terry, I know that, but I also what to know did you think that stardict need improve or enhancement?
[14:45] <Mantelis>  Hello, I trying to configure my Integrated Video Card, but when I open: /etc/X11 there is no such file as xorg.conf. Is it possible that this file doesn't exist in ubuntu? How could I solve this problem? Output paste: http://paste.ubuntu.com/586454/
[14:45] <helpmeplease-sol> terry: Thanks a lot, there was direcotry called rmd-session in tmp. It got flooded to around 13 gb due to me running a faulty recordmydesktop (had issues with someplugins), I dont know how come it went on running in the background. Bu thanks i got my sqpce back. and thanks to ruan  Dr_Willis too. Good day. :)
[14:46] <Nomadicus> What is the procedure for resetting the keyring password, and how can it be disabled?
[14:46] <Graphic> Is apt managed as a package and does it come in the ubuntu-standard package?
[14:46] <MechanisM> someone can unlock encrypted home directory with ssh? for money.
[14:47] <bibic682> alkaliv2: I tried arandr too, and same thing.....back to square 1
[14:47] <terry> Noobx: What exactly do you want to do?
[14:47] <MechanisM> it's crypted with ubuntu's ecryptfs.
[14:48] <Noobx> terry: Create a DHCPv6 server using ubuntu
[14:48] <alkaliv2> Mantelis: try the command sudo "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[14:48] <bonjoyee> Graphic: apt is the very core of ubuntu/debian..it has to come with any minimal install...
[14:49] <Jonta_> Hm, will my Ubuntu USBstick ask if I want to install on system or run from USB every time
[14:49] <alkaliv2> bibic682: If it takes all day I will discover where your config file is
[14:49] <Jonta_> Gah, different keyboardlayout
[14:49] <Graphic> bonjoyee: cool Im working on a minamalistic install image, no gui or anything just the stuff I need to use the hardware, edit text files and get more software if I need
[14:50] <erUSUL> !minimal > Graphic
[14:50] <alkaliv2> bibic682: open a terminal and type "nano /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ " hit tab twice and tell me what it says
[14:51] <bibic682> alkaliv2: Iv'e looked in all xorg folders and couldn't find a conf. file I could edit to 16
[14:51] <Dr_Willis> !encryptfs
[14:52] <alkaliv2> bibic682: I'm looking for a file that says something along the lines of "20-(your video card).conf"
[14:52] <Jonta_> !minimal
[14:52] <Dr_Willis> Jonta_:  I think theres some kernel/boot optiosn that make it skip that.  but you may want to check the forums.
[14:52] <Jonta_> Will do. Thanks
[14:52] <MMlosh> Hi...  My ubuntu release upgrade failed because of packages  with priority "misc"...  how can I resume?
[14:52] <delocated> Trying to use setserial to recover a destroyed android device: http://pastebin.com/PaLqi1Mq
[14:52] <alkaliv2> Mantelis: were you able to try the command?
[14:52] <Dr_Willis> Jonta_:  unless of course. you do a full/normal install to the usb stick. then it will be the same as if from a hard drive.
[14:53] <enterneo> what tool should I use to echo traffic (on the shell) on a specific port?
[14:53] <Mantelis> alkaliv2, sorry?
[14:53] <Jonta_> Hm, I became uncertain when it wanted to insure that the _computer_ had enough space
[14:53] <alkaliv2> Mantelis: try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" from command line
[14:54] <erUSUL> enterneo: echo traffic?
[14:54] <Mantelis> But I need to exit gnome, correct?
[14:54] <Mantelis> It's still alt+ctrl+backspace?
[14:54] <enterneo> erUSUL: a process is sending me traffic at port 23456, I want to see the traffic on command line what should I use?
[14:54] <alkaliv2> Mantelis: No, that key has been disabled
[14:54] <alkaliv2> Mantelis: instead hit ctrl+Alt+F1
[14:54] <Mantelis> And how to come back?
[14:55] <alkaliv2> Mantelis: login to that terminal and enter it there.  Then sudo reboot
[14:55] <erUSUL> enterneo: is there something listening to that traffic already?
[14:55] <delocated> Mantelis, startx
[14:55] <Mantelis> Thanks. Going to check.
[14:55] <Abhijit> enterneo, apachetop?
[14:55] <Jipstah> What does xlock command do?
[14:55] <enterneo> erUSUL: no, I have to set that up, but first I need to check if the traffic is being sent properly, I know I can use wireshark, but I am looking for a cmd tool
[14:55] <erUSUL> enterneo: you can use nc ( netcat )
[14:56] <terry> Noobx: I see wide-dhcpv6-server - DHCPv6 server for automatic IPv6 hosts configuration
[14:56] <terry> Noobx: in the repos
[14:56] <enterneo> erUSUL: thanks :)
[14:56] <terry> Noobx: Are you sure you wouldn't want to try wide-dhcpv6-server first?
[14:56] <erUSUL> enterneo: there are also cmd line sniffers iirc tcpdump ?
[14:57] <Jonta_> Dr_Willis: Nah, installation only offered to put it on the HDD

[14:59] <Mantelis> No, shit do I need?

[14:59] <iceroot> Mantelis: sudo service gdm restart

[14:59] <ikonia> Mantelis: control the language please
[15:00] <alkaliv2> Lostmonk: Do you have a flash drive?
[15:00] <kikiteko> helloo
[15:00] <navatwo> hmm typically I do not have problems, but for some reason my fresh kubuntu install on my netbook wont connect to my router. It states its connected but cannot locate any pages. I manually added it to the dchp table using the computers mac address (the router doesn't see it though)
[15:00] <Mantelis> Copy That.
[15:00] <kikiteko> I'm new to this chat
[15:00] <Lostmonk> trying to install on an old comp that wont boot from usb
[15:00] <kikiteko> how can I send personal message to somebody
[15:00] <ooxi> hi is there an easy way to display the download progress of wget in X? currenlty i execute gnome-terminal -e "wget ..." but a simple graphical progressbar would be better
[15:00] <kikiteko> instead of typing in the shared chat
[15:00] <iceroot> kikiteko: /msg nickname message
[15:00] <Lostmonk> and Im on a netbook, no drive
[15:01] <kikiteko> iceroot thnaks
[15:01] <kikiteko> would that open a new "windpw"
[15:01] <kikiteko> or I would have to use this msg thing for every message
[15:01] <alkaliv2> Lostmonk: what type of netbook is it?
[15:01] <navatwo> kikiteko: yes
[15:01] <iceroot> ooxi: wget is doing that by default
[15:01] <hulowa> Hello everyone. How to play x264 format video? I got VLC installed but still not working.
[15:01] <kikiteko> so it's not kommon here
[15:01] <Lostmonk> an asus
[15:01] <kikiteko> common here
[15:01] <orangejuicecup> sup
[15:01] <kikiteko> to type to people personaly
[15:01] <Lostmonk> but Im trying to install on an old hp desktop
[15:01] <alkaliv2> Lostmonk: disregard, you mean you're talking to us on a netbook not trying to install ubuntu on it
[15:02] <alkaliv2> gotcha
[15:02] <ooxi> iceroot, but the script which runs wget is not attached to a terminal. it's run by cron but i want the user to see how far the download is
[15:02] <alkaliv2> Lostmonk: you have internet though?
[15:02] <lokinou> alkaliv2 he may be on live CD
[15:02] <Lostmonk> yes
[15:03] <iceroot> ooxi: hm sorry, then i dont know
[15:03] <iceroot> ooxi: maybe cron can open up a screen
[15:03] <iceroot> ooxi: but i think that is the dirty-way
[15:03] <alkaliv2> lokinou: I think he was asking for someone to burn a cd for him to use on the computer

[15:06] <Manoj1> Hello Folks. I just installed 11.4 on a Compaq Presario CQ50. The wireless doesn't work. When trying "sudo iwlist eth1 scan", I get "eth1    Failed to read scan data : Invalid argument"
[15:06] <Manoj1> Sorry - Installed 10.10
[15:06] <alkaliv2> Lostmonk: Does the HP computer have windows on it?
[15:07] <ruan> really odd with bluetooth because i can make a folder on my hard drive and copy it to the device
[15:07] <lokinou> novitololo: set a stable ip adress, then make a port redirect on your internet box in order to redirect messages incoming to the box directly to the stable adress you specified for your (server) computer
[15:07] <Manoj1> Hello Folks. I just installed 10.10 on a Compaq Presario CQ50-106AU. The wireless doesn't work. When trying "sudo iwlist eth1 scan", I get "eth1    Failed to read scan data : Invalid argument"
[15:07] <Lostmonk> it has no working os

[15:08] <Jipstah> Could anyone explain what xlock does?
[15:08] <Who___> anyone can help me in network stuff?
[15:08] <uhduifhiuh> Hey. I'm having a problem with running rollercoaster tycoon 3 on Ubuntu 10.10
[15:08] <lokinou> Manoj1: try sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[15:08] <uhduifhiuh> It seems to run flawlessly, but every 10-15 minutes it will log me out, without any kind of warning.
[15:09] <lokinou> Manoj1: eth0 is ethernet connection
[15:09] <alkaliv2> Jipstah: http://linux.die.net/man/1/xlock
[15:09] <uhduifhiuh> The game probably crashes, but for some reason it also logs me out of my Ubuntu desktop. Haven't had that problem before.
[15:09] <Manoj1> There is no interface called wlan0.
[15:09] <Manoj1> The wireless interface name is eth1
[15:09] <alkaliv2> Lostmonk: Lol you really do need a boot disk.  I've got nothing
[15:09] <lokinou> Manoj1: you need to install your wireless driver before
[15:10] <Jonta_> Where can I manually remove Openoffice.org_
[15:10] <hulowa> any idea this error below is?  http://code.bulix.org/earbeh-79606
[15:10] <Jonta_> -?
[15:10] <Jonta_> fff
[15:10] <Manoj1> Upon first boot, Unbuntu told me that there is a Broadcom driver available and I selected to install it and it did.
[15:11] <drc> Jonta_: Software Center
[15:11] <lokinou> Manoj: sure, have you tried to install third-party drivers ?
[15:11] <hulowa> and how to hide the command line when shut down or restart?
[15:11] <drc> Jonta_: Package Manager
[15:11] <drc> Jonta_: Take your pick
[15:12] <Manoj1> I have not. I had similar trouble with third party drivers on SuSE so I switched to Ubuntu. Which third party driver would you recommend?
[15:12] <alkaliv2> hulowa: your permissions are wrong for the folder you're accessing the movie from if I'm reading that right
[15:13] <orangejuicecup> I hate my job
[15:13] <albert748> I'll become stardict developer, and bring you a more efficient dictionary tool!!!!
[15:13] <lokinou> Manoj1: private messaging you

[15:19] <terry> obiwahn: Is this with the original user that you created during install?  Or another one?
[15:19] <queso> terry: this is a server that multiple people maintain.  I think the package installed is linux-image-virtual, and the dependency that is missing is linux-image-2.6.32-30-virtual

[15:25] <iceroot> markl: no good ones, so gedit is your friend
[15:25] <megh> striker: plugin the modem wait for a minute then right click network icon, select edit connections. in the new dialog box select mobile broad band tab
[15:26] <terry> obiwahn: lprm
[15:26] <wegue> ThinkT510: you know the power manager will close the mirror when the mouse or keyboard free, so the inhibit applet is stop the function

[15:31] <orangejuicecup> anyone have any jobs available or work?
[15:31] <orangejuicecup> in a tough situation with money
[15:31] <obiwahn> well it is connected to my pc
[15:31] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: a good gui-application for working with configs is gvim, emacs or gedit
[15:31] <obiwahn> the file is the server config
[15:31] <ThinkT510> orangejuicecup: this is ubuntu support, not the jobcentre
[15:31] <obiwahn> i am able to print from any pc but the ubuntu netbook
[15:32] <markl> so text editor  is the last resort
[15:32] <terry> obiwahn: Oh yea, I see.  And you are having trouble printing from the same machine it is connected to?

[15:35] <ljsoftnet> chrono86 i dont know what urxvt is
[15:35] <terry> obiwahn: I assume that the line: Listen 192.168.13.13:631   is telling it to listen only to 192.168.13.13, which is the local machine's IP.  Right?
[15:36] <folorn> anyone on here used slackware linux?
[15:36] <Dr_Willis> notk0:  its best to keep at least 1 or 2 old kernels around.

[15:36] <erUSUL> airdem: looks like the grub installer was able to avoid problems
[15:36] <Dr_Willis> notk0:  You use the packatge manager to remove the older ones. I use ubuntu-tweak to handle it.
[15:36] <erUSUL> airdem: do you have problems booting?
[15:36] <Dr_Willis> notk0:  its not a big issue really.
[15:36] <notk0> Pici you seem to type a lot faster

[15:38] <erUSUL> airdem: do you know how to do chroot to your ubutnu install ?
[15:39] <obiwahn> or lo instead of localost

[15:40] <folorn> i need to move a folder over to the windows side of machine anyone got time to maybe help quick with that ? so i dont screw my machine up to badly
[15:40] <erUSUL> airdem: can you check if grub-pc is installed? « sudo apt-get install grub-pc » and if it is already installed run « sudo update-grub » ( all inside the chroot )
[15:40] <quant> folorn, copy/paste folder?
[15:40] <Who___> and i have oen domain and vps and where i can set the host?
[15:41] <Who___> anyone pls help :?
[15:41] <airdem> grub-pc is already the newest version.
[15:41] <Gulfstream> folorn: I could possibly help. Can you mount the other partition?
[15:41] <erUSUL> airdem: run « sudo  update-grub »
[15:42] <airdem> erUSUL: allright thank you. i will reboot
[15:42] <Gulfstream> folorn: then to move it to the Desktop of a user, you click on "Users", then name of user, then where you want the file to go. Then copy and paste the file.
[15:42] <terry> obiwahn: I suppose you could change line 81 to:  Listen *:631   and:
[15:43] <terry> obiwahn: I suppose you could change line 18 to:  Listen *:631   and:
[15:43] <obiwahn> 18?
[15:43] <obiwahn> i guess i could but that is not the problem as i am able to print fro the network
[15:43] <Gulfstream> how do I get my PGP keys onto my new Ubuntu machine? I want to be able to have the key added to my personal keys list.
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> iceroot: webmin is a gui, just accesses via a web browser...
[15:44] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: and writing config-files
[15:44] <erUSUL> Gulfstream: where do you have them now? an exported ascci file?
[15:44] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: like yast, plesk and other tools from the hell do
[15:44] <Pici> ActionParsnip: webmin is not in the repositories and is not recommended for Ubuntu.
[15:44] <home-alone> hi I am a new user . I was installing Open Office and when it was done about 50% I disconnected from internet . how to remove files that were alread installed...????

[15:45] <obiwahn> terry: thanks for you help
[15:45] <erUSUL> Gulfstream: the keyserver only have your public key
[15:45] <terry> obiwahn: change line 42 to:  Allow 192.168.13.0/225.225.225.0  and delete line 43
[15:46] <Gulfstream> erUSUL: so then my private keysare gone? I have to create a new one?
[15:46] <Pinpon> erUSUL: :)
[15:46] <erUSUL> Gulfstream: the private key is kept in your home and you are asupposed to not give it to anyone... and keep it safe
[15:46] <stefan_> how to view wireless networks without network manager
[15:46] <terry> obiwahn: Well, I don't know about line 42 may work either way.  I dono... just have to tinker with it  (Allow 192.168.13.* might work.)
[15:46] <erUSUL> Gulfstream: if you nuked your home then yes is gone
[15:47] <folorn> quant - like i need to move the 2 folders over to windows ?
[15:47] <Gulfstream> erUSUL: I am assuming launchpad will accept a new key then... right?
[15:47] <erUSUL> stefan_: sudo iw dev wlan0 scan
[15:47] <quant> folorn, select folder and copy/paste to the windows partition if it's mounted
[15:47] <obiwahn> look i need to change the netbook not the server
[15:47] <terry> stefan_: sudo iwconfig wlan0 scan
[15:47] <obiwahn> the server works as it is with 7-8 pcs
[15:47] <terry> stefan_: I would suggest wicd    sudo apt-get install wicd
[15:48] <terry> stefan_: ... if you want a gui to use.
[15:48] <stefan_> i dont think that network manager is showing all
[15:48] <erUSUL> Gulfstream: i guess so... but you are in a "problematic" situation now. becouse if you do not have your private key i am guessing you do not have a revocation certificate either... and you can not revoke the old not longer valid key ...
[15:48] <stefan_> it only shows networks with keys
[15:49] <terry> stefan_: sudo apt-get install wicd
[15:49] <cusf> I've got an audio input lead in my microphone input jack on my laptop. Is there a way I can listen to it live? (I know I can record the microphone input in Audacity or something)
[15:49] <terry> stefan_: (maybe wicd will work better for you.)
[15:49] <erUSUL> terry: iwconfig can not scan. is iwlist or iw
[15:50] <stefan_> thanks
[15:50] <terry> erUSUL: Thanks
[15:50] <ActionParsnip> Pici: I read that it was now fixed and shouldn't break stuff now
[15:50] <terry> stefan_: sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[15:50] <stefan_> anyhow does someone knows how to increase the signal search  with wireless usb?
[15:50] <terry> I stand corrected. (Tnx agn erUSUL )
[15:50] <erUSUL> no problem
[15:51] <Pici> ActionParsnip: I haven't heard that, nevertheless, its still not in the repositories.
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> Pici: ok thats cool
[15:51] <stefan_> i tried with aluminium foil nothinh
[15:52] <Polah> Do I have to install update-manager-core to upgrade from command line in 10.04 to 10.10?
[15:52] <ActionParsnip> Polah: the documentations says so, so yes
[15:52] <Polah> ActionParsnip, okay thanks
[15:53] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade | Polah
[15:53] <obiwahn> well terry it works without changing the server - fucking gui^^
[15:54] <rrrachel> so, apple usb ethernet adapter worked great in one ubuntu machine; move to another, and while dhcp works, it won't actually pass traffic (eg: ping or anything much else) until i unplug it and plug it in again
[15:54] <ThinkT510> !language | obiwahn
[15:54] <ljsoftnet> can i replace the ubuntu plymouth with usplash
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> rrrachel: can you ping 8.8.8.8?
[15:55] <airdem> i am on ubuntu live
[15:55] <airdem> how am i supposed to burn a cd now>
[15:55] <airdem> ?
[15:56] <rrrachel> can't ping anything through it. (this is on a machine intended to be a router:) when i put it on the internet-facing interface it can't even ping the router even though it *knows* the router through dhcp. when put on the inward-facing lan, it can't ping any other hosts even when their ips are known
[15:56] <rrrachel> unplug, plug it in, no other action, everything springs into life
[15:56] <ThinkT510> airdem: you could install ubuntu to a usb stick then boot from it to free the cd drive
[15:56] <ThinkT510> !usb | airdem
[15:56] <rrrachel> am actually using it as a router now, and working, but don't want to have to pull that plug and put it in again every time i reboot
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> rrrachel: try unloading, then reloading the module which runs it
[15:57] <airdem> thank you ThinkT510
[15:57] <ThinkT510> np
[15:57] <rrrachel> it fails to work properly immediately after boot
[15:57] <hfdftu> ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡∀┴ɹ∀ԀS SI SIH┴ ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡∀┴ɹ∀ԀS SI SIH┴ ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡∀┴ɹ∀ԀS SI SIH┴ ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡∀┴ɹ∀ԀS SI SIH┴ ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡∀┴ɹ∀ԀS SI SIH┴ ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡∀┴ɹ∀ԀS SI SIH┴ ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡∀┴ɹ∀ԀS SI SIH┴ ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡∀┴ɹ∀ԀS SI SIH┴ ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡∀┴ɹ∀ԀS SI SIH┴
[15:57] <WineHQ> OMG FAIL UBUNTU
[15:58] <Pinpon> :/
[15:58]  * rrrachel looks for a way to suppress all the join/leave messages...
[15:58] <DJones> rrrachel: Which irc client are you using?
[15:58] <rrrachel> xchat-gnome
[15:59] <DJones> rrrachel: Try right clicking on the channel name, I think there is an option to hide joins & parts
[15:59] <rrrachel> aha, thanks
[15:59] <rrrachel> should make it a bit easier to track conversations
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> rrrachel: instead of using /me  just ask the question...
[16:00] <rrrachel> was about to bitch about the -gnome implying lack of useful options ;-)
[16:00] <rrrachel> ActionParsnip, well, wrt suppressing join/part i wasn't really asking except rhetorically, glad of answer though :-)
[16:01] <DJones> rrrachel: xchat is the full irc client, xchat-gnome is a cut down version with fewer options
[16:01] <rrrachel> yes i know
[16:01] <orangejuicecup> can you make money with ubuntu or is it more a hobby?
[16:01] <orangejuicecup> hobby project
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> orangejuicecup: you can setup a support service and charge
[16:02] <Roasted__> Has anybody utilized LTSP with fat clients on a Windows domain? I'm facing an issue with them being joined to the domain. I'm curious if I need to join the fat chroot to the domain or just the server.
[16:03] <rrrachel> grr. all google searches for problems in linux with this apple usb ethernet are old, before it was supported properly. since then presumably it's been perfect. well, it has too for me until putting it in this different machine
[16:03] <obiwahn> in wich version do i find kernel 38
[16:04] <ActionParsnip> obiwahn: natty
[16:04] <rrrachel> which i suppose i should admit is running natty; only because it was before i decided to make it a router, and i'm trying to avoid having to reinstall, but i might have to
[16:04] <rrrachel> but i also guess the hardware might be suspect :-(
[16:04] <LarsTorbenK> have to new install
[16:04] <rrrachel> 1st gen acer aspire one, too slow for desktop, routes fine except for this
[16:04] <LarsTorbenK> 10 04 10.10 or 11.04  ?
[16:04] <sdgdfg124> i forgot to tick "install 3rd party software" like shown here: http://blog.mypapit.net/2010/10/ubuntu-10-10-maverick-installation-3rd-party-software-and-codecs-automatic-download-feature.html
[16:04] <sdgdfg124> how can i install it afterwards?
[16:04] <adan0s> is there a away I can tell update-grub not to poll all my harddisks?
[16:04] <freenodiz> #ubercart
[16:04] <obiwahn> ActionParsnip: so all i need to do is to change all my maverick sources to natty?
[16:05] <rrrachel> yeesh
[16:05] <obiwahn> or should i use the preferences fr pinning?
[16:05] <ljsoftnet> can i replace the ubuntu plymouth with usplash
[16:05] <rrrachel> obiwahn, update-manager -d if you must before it's properly released
[16:05] <LarsTorbenK> 10 04 10.10 or 11.04  ?
[16:05] <folorn> anyone care to explain the difference's between ubuntu 10.10 and slackware and which better suites a person's everday needs?
[16:05] <rrrachel> LarsTorbenK, if you have to ask, 10.10
[16:05] <ActionParsnip> obiwahn: no, you can upgrade with: sudo update-manager -d
[16:06] <Pici> ljsoftnet: no. Plymouth does more than just show you a splash screen. It is responsible for mounting disks at boot etc.
[16:06] <obiwahn> rrrachel: i am just asking if it saver to use apt pinning ....
[16:06] <obiwahn> safer
[16:06] <rrrachel> LarsTorbenK, ie: the one you get if you go to www.ubuntu.com
[16:06] <royale1223> LarsTorbenK: after apr 28th, 11.04
[16:06] <vietred> sdgdfg124: you can install them when you actually need them
[16:06] <ljsoftnet> Pici how can i fix my plymouth?
[16:06] <tonyaldo> folorn, slackware has different ways of doing things, for example they don't use .deb packages
[16:06] <drc> folorn: Slackware does not have package dependency solving (out of the box)...Ubuntu does
[16:07] <vietred> sdgdfg124: like when you open an mp3 by rhymthbox, it will ask you to install the codec or not
[16:07] <Pici> ljsoftnet: As far as I can tell, you haven't stated that you're having any problems with plymouth
[16:08] <LarsTorbenK> when does the  beta 1 comes then ?
[16:08] <ljsoftnet> Pici when booting up it shows text rather than the plymouth
[16:08] <ActionParsnip> LarsTorbenK: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NattyReleaseSchedule
[16:09] <LarsTorbenK> 31.?
[16:09] <Pici> !natty
[16:09] <LarsTorbenK> cant wait until 28 april!
[16:09] <LarsTorbenK> have to format today 2011!
[16:09] <Pici> ljsoftnet: Then you should state that in your question.
[16:09] <sysRPL> has anyone here gotten 1080p video playback to work on ubuntu using hardware accellerated vdpau? i followed some steps to setup vdpau accelleration on 10.10, but when i play a 1080p mkv on vlc, it's too damn slow ... is there a way to check if vdpau through my hardware is actually being used?
[16:10] <rrrachel> LarsTorbenK, then install maverick
[16:10] <iceroot> LarsTorbenK: install 10.10 and update to the final if 11.04 comes
[16:10] <Roasted__> LarsTorbenK, just make sure you torrent in April to help out :P
[16:10] <ljsoftnet> when booting up it shows text rather than the plymouth, how do i fix this?
[16:10] <rrrachel> sysRPL, check out xbmc forums
[16:10] <LarsTorbenK> update ? dont like updates much
[16:11] <LarsTorbenK> cant i install on 31. april ubuntu beta 1
[16:11] <rrrachel> then install maverick and don't update
[16:11] <LarsTorbenK> it should good
[16:11] <LarsTorbenK> be
[16:11] <LarsTorbenK> xD
[16:11] <katachu> hi
[16:11] <rrrachel> you can install natty now, but it's alpha. i am, and it breaks often, but i don't mind the fun
[16:11] <LarsTorbenK> ok
[16:11] <LarsTorbenK> then not
[16:11] <iroquois> is there an easy way i could get all my bookmarks in igoogle printed out?
[16:11] <rrrachel> if you want it to be stable, then install maverick
[16:11] <LarsTorbenK> but maverick support end soon
[16:11] <rrrachel> # there's no other way...
[16:11] <rrrachel> LarsTorbenK, not for about three years
[16:11] <LarsTorbenK> noo
[16:12] <LarsTorbenK> maverick is 1 year more
[16:12] <Pici> LarsTorbenK: Thats correct.
[16:12] <Polah> LarsTorbenK, rrrachel: Maverick isn't an LTS.
[16:12] <LarsTorbenK> lucid is 3 years mpw
[16:12] <LarsTorbenK> now
[16:12] <LarsTorbenK> yes
[16:12] <rrrachel> then install lucid
[16:12] <Pinpon> :P
[16:12] <rrrachel> if long term support and stability are important to you
[16:12] <rrrachel> install lucid
[16:12] <ActionParsnip> LarsTorbenK: maverick support ends April 2012, depends on how you view 'soon"
[16:12] <LarsTorbenK> okayer
[16:12] <rrrachel> you choose that, or you choose the bleeding edge that that implies
[16:12]  * JackyAlcine will be right back.
[16:12] <LarsTorbenK> okay
[16:12] <Stava> will a cups print server work with windows clients?
[16:13] <LarsTorbenK> how can i get ubuntu font
[16:13] <LarsTorbenK> under ubuntu10.04
[16:13] <ActionParsnip> Stava: yes, it will be seen as a print server
[16:13] <Stava> ActionParsnip, Alright, so i dont need to use some kind of samba print server?
[16:13] <rrrachel> oh god i think i'm losing the will to live...
[16:13] <ActionParsnip> LarsTorbenK: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/10/public-ubuntu-font-family-ppa-for.html
[16:13] <ActionParsnip> Stava: not strictly, no
[16:13] <katachu> so... I just installed ubuntu on an old dell desktop, and I've been having a bit of an issue with the flash player. I've used ubuntu before, but it was a couple of years ago, and I've forgotten a lot, (plus, I'm using the newest version of the OS)
[16:13] <Stava> ActionParsnip, cool, thanks
[16:14] <ljsoftnet> when booting up it shows text rather than the plymouth, how do i fix this?
[16:14] <LarsTorbenK> okay
[16:14] <LarsTorbenK> ttf-ubuntu-font-family is in the ubuntu repos
[16:14] <LarsTorbenK> question:
[16:14] <LarsTorbenK> my PC is in the reparation
[16:15] <katachu> I did the recommended install of the restricted packages, plus I ended up installing all of the gstreamer packages I could find, but I'm still having this issue: the audio occasionally skips and the video will end up lagging or freezing.
[16:15] <LarsTorbenK> can i make ubuntu install under virtualbox, backup it, import then if my pc back
[16:16] <shuttle> hi
[16:16] <shuttle> i got a problem with my synaptic
[16:16] <obiwahn> linux-generic 2.6.35.28.36 maverick-security security.ubuntu.com
[16:16] <obiwahn> linux-generic 2.6.38.7.21  natty             de.archive.ubuntu.com
[16:16] <obiwahn> ^^
[16:17] <megh>  ljsoftnet: do u have nvidia graphics btw
[16:18] <shuttle> anyone can help me with a crashin synaptic
[16:18] <obiwahn> ActionParsnip: thanks for telling me about natty - take a look at apt preferences
[16:18] <LarsTorbenK> can i make ubuntu install under virtualbox, backup it, import then if my pc back
[16:18] <LarsTorbenK> is
[16:18] <LarsTorbenK> xD
[16:18] <LarsTorbenK> ^^^^
[16:18] <LarsTorbenK> ^^
[16:18] <FloodBot2> LarsTorbenK: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:19] <jamie4> During setup of my audio input, my sound card disappeared from the list (of input *and* output hardware). How can I get it back? I used the "sound preferences" under volume control, and tried the pulse audio manager as well.
[16:19] <folorn> so what ya mean ubuntu has package dependicies? and ubuntu does?
[16:19] <ActionParsnip> LarsTorbenK: why not use partimage or similar to simply make an image of the install
[16:19] <rrrachel> jamie4, try 'killall pulseaudio'
[16:19] <folorn> isnt slackware okay for first starting out with linux or is ubuntu my only option really?
[16:19] <rrrachel> (will relaunch and hopefully re-detect)
[16:19] <jamie4> rrrachel: it happened before I installed pulse
[16:20] <tank8465> folorn: i started with fedora
[16:20] <rrrachel> pulseaudio is standard on ubuntu, how did you manage that?
[16:20] <maco> folorn: depends on if you want an easy ramp-up or if you want to dive in head first sink-or-swim style
[16:20] <shuttle> cause of crashin synaptic i cleared the cache, after upgrade it says E: Couldn't configure pre-depend libc6 for findutils, probably a dependency cycle.
[16:20] <drc> folorn: Package Dependency mean that if Package A requires Package B and C to work, Ubuntu will install B and C while Slackware will make you manually install B and C
[16:20] <tank8465> drc, forlorn: sometimes
[16:21] <tank8465> b will require d and f
[16:21] <jamie4> rrrachel: on default install of 10.10? not sure! but I made my own 'lite' version of ubuntu studio (audio apps) and just did sudo apt-get install pulseaudio pavucontrol padevchooser and it didn't yell at me...
[16:21] <test> maco: hahaha
[16:21] <ThinkT510> folorn: when you want to install something in ubuntu the dependancies are automatically downloaded and installed, in slackware you have to install everything manually (essentially, you are the package manager)
[16:21] <tank8465> and you have DEPENDENCY HELL
[16:21] <drc> tank8465: I know, answering he general question, not trying to get too technical on him
[16:21] <test> folorn: in ubuntu everything is easy
[16:22] <folorn> that don't seem all that bad really just alittle extra elbow grease. I was told one of the distros i think slackware comes with quake2? that true or no
[16:22] <Lars_G> Greets all.
[16:22] <rrrachel> jamie4, unless ubuntu studio does something different wrt sound, pulseaudio was already there and it won't moan at you about installing something already there, it'll just mark that package as deliberately installed rather than automatically (as a dependency of something else)
[16:22]  * drc thinks test has not been in this channel to long to say that :)
[16:22] <tank8465> folorn: nope
[16:22] <folorn> I've given up on trying to download a full working version of quake2 there's just none around here at all?
[16:22] <Lars_G> Question, does any package in ubuntu include samba.schema for samba-ldap integration?
[16:22] <shuttle> cause of crashin synaptic i cleared the cache, after upgrade it says E: Couldn't configure pre-depend libc6 for findutils, probably a dependency cycle. need help pls
[16:23] <ActionParsnip> Lars_G: try:   dpkg -S samba.schema
[16:23] <maco> folorn: i dont know if slack has quake2. youd want to ask that in ##slackware
[16:23] <jamie4> rrrachel: ok, I installed vanilla ubuntu 10.10 with gnome (x64) and didn't know I could install already installed packages =D so killall pulseaudio might work?
[16:23] <test> drc: first time in here and hi everybody
[16:23] <drc> folorn: It's not hard to work with Slack style distros, but you have to do your homework first
[16:23] <ActionParsnip> shuttle: try:   sudo apt-get -f install
[16:23] <tank8465> Lars_G: idk, try apt-cache search samba, look through what you get
[16:23] <Lars_G> o.O
[16:23] <Lars_G> tank8465: I've already looked, nothing is evident to provide it.
[16:23] <drc> test: Hang around, you find that even the simplest things can be messed up...by somebody
[16:23] <Lars_G> ActionParsnip: I found a dubious one, but I'll use that
[16:24] <Lars_G> thanks
[16:24] <tank8465> Lars_G, ah. okay
[16:24] <ActionParsnip> Lars_G: np man
[16:24] <test> drc: iḿ using ubuntu for two years now
[16:24] <shuttle> ActionParsnip: still the same
[16:24] <jamie4> Slack Problem: no deborphan to clean up the mess after migrating to new programs, or updating, etc... lots of old pkgs sitting around afaik
[16:24] <XOXO1> hey, I wanted to ask U guys about this wubi. I have 2 partitions on my PC and they are almost full, I cant change my partitions right now. does this wubi creates a virtual partition which is on my windows partition?
[16:24] <rrrachel> jamie4: try it; won't do any harm
[16:24] <rrrachel> (pulseaudio)
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> XOXO1: it makes an image file which is used as the "drive" you install ubuntu ti
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> XOXO1: *to
[16:25] <katachu> Ok, so I just installed Ubuntu, and I'm pretty new at the OS. I've been having issues with flash player: either, the audio skips, or the video lags and freezes. I've installed the restricted package, and ended up installing all of the gstreamer packages. Is there a way to resolve this issue?
[16:25] <test> I tried other distributions but I always return to ubuntu
[16:25] <drc> test: Did NOT mean to imply you didn't know what <you> are doing, just some one, some where, some time can mess ANYTHING up :)
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> XOXO1: it will be directly affected by NTFS shortcomings especially fragmentation
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> test: tried xpud :)
[16:26] <drc> test: and they come here for solutions
[16:26] <daweefolk> how would i join two files (file1 and file2) and save it to file3?
[16:26] <ActionParsnip> daweefolk: cat file1 file2 > file3
[16:26] <rrrachel> daweefolk, cat ... ah too fast for me
[16:26] <test> yes everything is possible but i remember trying fedora and it took me two days to get sound works
[16:26] <rrrachel> daweefolk, cat is short for concatenate
[16:26] <ActionParsnip> daweefolk: if they are not plain text files, you will need something more fancy
[16:27] <daweefolk> how would i use the join command?
[16:27] <rrrachel> ActionParsnip, actually i think it'll just work anyway
[16:27] <ashish> hey
[16:27] <ashish> :P
[16:27] <shuttle> ActionParsnip: after sudo apt-get -f install, still the same E: Couldn't configure pre-depend libc6 for findutils, probably a dependency cycle.
[16:27] <netconnect> I want to know how to disable apperance settings. My brother keeps coming and changing them, is there a way to block it?
[16:27] <megh> daweefolk: !cat
[16:27] <katachu> can anybody see me?
[16:27] <ActionParsnip> rrrachel: with videos it needs a mencoder command running on the result file
[16:27] <daweefolk> i need to do it by a certain field
[16:27] <Pici> katachu: yes
[16:27] <ashish> waassup people :D
[16:27] <folorn> ill do that maco

[16:29] <ActionParsnip> Goliath: if you don't have a floppy, don't add it
[16:29] <Goliath> ActionParsnip: oh ok
[16:30] <netconnect> I want to know how to disable apperance settings. My brother keeps coming and changing them, is there a way to block it?
[16:30] <M1> netconnect: thanks :)
[16:30] <Polah> netconnect: deny his user privileges to access Xorg settings
[16:30] <valerio> !list
[16:31] <rrrachel> netconnect, give him his own user
[16:31] <rrrachel> log out of yours when you're not using it
[16:31] <rrrachel> don't let him know your password
[16:31] <netconnect> Polah, yeah. thanks :)
[16:31] <Polah> Or if he's using your user, Super L to lock the screen/log out or something
[16:31] <netconnect> rrrachel, na, can't do that
[16:31] <netconnect> rrrachel, but anyway i got the solution ;)
[16:32] <rrrachel> it's the point of a multiuser system; otherwise just have an ipad ;-)
[16:32] <test> drc: i didn´t understand what do you mean?
[16:32] <Polah> Or if he's using your user, Super L to lock the screen/log out or something
[16:32] <jamie4> rrrachel: and so my input card came back on killing pulse... how can I prevent this from happening in the future (i.e. during recording)?
[16:33] <jamie4> rrrachel: is this a known issue with pulse?
[16:33] <drc> test: Sometimes people (myself included at times, I'm sad to say) offer advice about things they have little to no knowledge about.
[16:34] <rrrachel> i don't know; that's just what i do when i have an issue with connecting usb speakers; it's only upon connecting, not always a problem then, and ok on boot, so it's always just been a transient fix for a transient problem i've had
[16:34] <drc> test: Or don't read/see certain key clues about the particular problem (more common)
[16:34] <drc> test:  but this is getting OT....
[16:35] <test> drc: sorry for that
[16:35] <musashi0011> Is there another way to boot ubuntu into console mode besides editing gdm in /etc/init?
[16:35] <shuttle> can andybody help me?
[16:35] <jamie4> rrrachel: that's too bad, I don't always leave this mixer plugged in -_-' as long as killing it (restarting the process, I suppose?) will catch it every time I plug it in?
[16:36] <rrrachel> probably; don't know
[16:36] <jamie4> shuttle: with what? (empathy IRC is aweful, and can't follow chat :-/
[16:36] <ncxcude> hello... :)
[16:36] <jamie4> rrrachel: thanks for the tip then! If it happens again I'll do more homework first :-)
[16:37] <rrrachel> oh, musashi0011 reminds me of another problem i have; i wanted to do the same thing, and best advice i could see was to add 'text' to end of default options line in /etc/default/grub but... i have no /etc/default/grub and on ubuntu machines where it does still exist, it doesn't seem to be owned by any package
[16:37] <Goliath> a
[16:37] <shuttle> jamie4: with synaptic after upgrade and install it still says ouldn't configure pre-depend libc6 for findutils, probably a dependency cycle.
[16:37] <Goliath>  hey should i run grub-install as sudo ?
[16:37] <rrrachel> yes
[16:37] <LarsTorben> yes
[16:37] <ncxcude> help... how to make webserver... can access with my own LAN
[16:37] <jamie4> shuttle: can you not install anything?
[16:38] <jamie4> shuttle: if you can install other things, I would go with installing aptitude, and use that instead of apt-get (I've had better luck that way, anyway, ymmv)
[16:38] <ikonia> ncxcude: install the apache2 package, open a browser and point it at your machines ip
[16:38] <Polah> ncxcude: You need apache2. sudo apt-get update apache2
[16:38] <jamie4> Why was aptitude removed from Ubuntu anyway???
[16:38] <rrrachel> wasn't afaik; am still using it on natty anyway
[16:38] <ikonia> Polah: install, not update
[16:38] <ikonia> jamie4: space space on the CD
[16:39] <shuttle> jamie4: cant install anything
[16:39] <musashi0011> thanks rrachel.
[16:39] <Polah> ikonia: Yeah, install. Had a bit of a derp moment there
[16:39] <ncxcude> yes, im already install webserver and ftp server... i can ping each computer. but i can't access webserver
[16:39] <jamie4> rrrachel: I just came from fedora to maverick ikonia: well I guess it's only a sudo apt-get install aptitude away... shuttle: when did this start?
[16:39] <strigoi66> any ideas or help about setting up a pxe server to run desktop environment on networked laptop? while server takes all load of processes/memory
[16:40] <ncxcude> firewall off
[16:40] <Polah> ncxcude: What happens when you try and access your IP through browser?
[16:40] <ncxcude> Polah: nothing...
[16:40] <ncxcude> but i can ping
[16:40] <ncxcude> client windows xp
[16:40] <Polah> Ncxcude: Haven't configured Apache then. If it's working properly you'll see a page like this: http://minecraft.wgaming.net
[16:41] <Polah> Ping doesn't use apache, that's a build in shell function
[16:41] <shuttle> jamie4: 2 days ago my pc crashed, then when i tried to start the system it crashed to, now the hdd is on other pc and it says i got error-packages, then i cleared the cache and now its totally broke
[16:41] <rrrachel> hmm, wonder if networkmanager is fubaring my usb ethernet
[16:41] <ccvvcc> why firefox4 isn't in the repo yet?
[16:41] <rrrachel> would explain why it seems to start working (gets dhcp) then fails
[16:42] <ncxcude> Polah: im already edit http.conf ---> ServerName 10.10.10.10:80 and Listen 80
[16:42] <jamie4> shuttle: is the hdd S.M.A.R.T. if so you can check for physical errors, I've had bizarre problems from plain broken hardware before...
[16:42] <shuttle> jamie4: same was on mint some days ago, system crashes after 10secs on desktop
[16:42] <semitones> I accidentally rm'ed a file I need just now -- is there a program I could use to recover it?

[16:43] <as> cześcccccccććććććc
[16:43] <rrrachel> semitones, we've all done it; chalk it up to experience :-}
[16:43] <semitones> is there an unreliable way?

[16:43] <rrrachel> semitones, hex editor on the device node
[16:43] <hedkandi> hello folks
[16:43] <jamie4> shuttle: I vote some kind of hardware, on first glance, anyway - check the hdd if it's smart, check for loose cables, etc etc. All that nonsense you never think to check, check it.
[16:43] <abuanoname> am have some question, am need make start and stop my apche. on star menu? and body have any ide
[16:43] <rrrachel> sudo rm -rf /
[16:43] <semitones> thanks jrib

[16:44] <Pumpkin-> ccvvcc: because Ubuntu only make major functional changes to software with releases. FF4 will be in 11.04 (or you can install it from the ppa's)
[16:44] <ikonia> 6c/ak rrrachel bye bye
[16:44] <shuttle> jamie4: how to check the hdd is still working?

[16:44] <rrrachel> hehe, people will cut and paste anything... ;-)
[16:44] <ikonia> jrib: hand slipped
[16:44] <hedkandi> I've put some things into /etc/network/interfaces. And I did ifconfig eth0 down/up and the change of ip address hasn't worked. Why not?
[16:44] <jamie4> ikonia: yeah, sure o.0
[16:44] <semitones> it's a fat32 fs so I hope i can recover it
[16:44] <jrib> abuanoname: sudo service apache2 start|stop|restart

[16:45] <abuanoname> that make me, just click it if i need start it
[16:45] <jrib> abuanoname: you can, but I would stick to doing it in a terminal so you can see the output.  If you feel like it's too long, make an alias
[16:45] <jamie4> shuttle: looking for smart drive info now, I forget where it is - what ubuntu are you on?
[16:45] <ikonia> jiffe98: control the language please
[16:45] <cba123> Rebooted my computer, and my mdadm raid5 won't mount.  It says either /dev/sdb1 has no superblock, or I only have 3 devices present.  I see them in gparted.  Here is my mdadm --examine http://pastebin.com/CqXEeBzY

[16:46] <jamie4> shuttle: do you have the "System" menu at the top?
[16:46] <abuanoname> ikonia, but that is a ubuntu distro to
[16:46] <abuanoname> ikonia, why not support
[16:46] <ikonia> abuanoname: no it's not, it's based on ubuntu, not ubuntu, so we don't support it
[16:47] <abuanoname> oh, are am need install back ?
[16:47] <shuttle> jamie4: dunno
[16:47] <ikonia> abuanoname: whatever you want, but we don't support that distro here

[16:47] <shuttle> jamie4: u mean smart-check on ubuntu?
[16:47] <cba123> hedkandi, I didn't phrase it as a question I guess.  Trying to get my mdadm raid5 to work after a reboot.  Says 3 device isn't enough.
[16:47] <divamiller> what app should i use
[16:47] <abuanoname> ikonia, please give me the right link for download it
[16:47] <jamie4> shuttle: how do you get to System>Administration on whatever DE you have?
[16:47] <abuanoname> am need the support
[16:47] <musashi0011> editing "stop on runlevel" and adding 2 does not prevent gdm from running on startup.
[16:47] <ikonia> abuanoname: no, we don't support it
[16:48] <ThinkT510> !backtrack | abuanoname

[16:48] <frxstrem> when compiling a program from source in Ubuntu, is it possible to specify in which directory I want to install it?
[16:48] <jamie4> shuttle: System>Administration>Disk Utility
[16:49] <ikonia> frxstrem: yes you do that at configure time or at the makefile
[16:49] <shuttle> jamie4: i got
[16:49] <divamiller> anyone
[16:49] <jamie4> shuttle: once in there, chose which drive you're having problem with (if you have more than one hdd installed) and there might be a button marked "S.M.A.R.T." on the right towards the top/midle
[16:49] <divamiller> ?
[16:49] <shuttle> jamie4: ok, ill try
[16:49] <frxstrem> ikonia: okay, but how exactly do I do it?
[16:49] <jamie4> shuttle: check that for bad thingies like red dots, etc :-)
[16:49] <divamiller> i need help in creating a html style book
[16:49] <ikonia> frxstrem: what are you trying to build
[16:50] <divamiller> and a app for book cover design
[16:50] <ikonia> divamiller: try in #html channel
[16:50] <semitones> I'm using foremost to try to recover files
[16:50] <frxstrem> ikonia: GNU Netcat
[16:50] <eoin_> divamiller: Does it have to be html?
[16:50] <divamiller> no
[16:50] <ikonia> frxstrem: isn't that in the repo
[16:50] <ikonia> !info netcat
[16:50] <eoin_> Sigil
[16:50] <ikonia> frxstrem: just install it from the package manager
[16:50] <daya> hi
[16:50] <divamiller> i just want the various of open office document be link together
[16:50] <semitones> ikonia, what is blackubuntu
[16:50] <hedkandi> daya, hi
[16:50] <lament> sounds racist
[16:50] <eoin_> divamiller: Try sigil...
[16:51] <frxstrem> ikonia: that's the old netcat, not the GNU version
[16:51] <divamiller> for simple when i see the word in the doc and you can click on it
[16:51] <BabyGirl> i dnot see thumbs of my videos anymore
[16:51] <ikonia> frxstrem: the README and INSTALL files should say how the build options are set
[16:51] <divamiller> so it is more like a hyperlink between various of documents
[16:51] <divamiller> but the problem is that i want to find my book with others
[16:52] <daya> 晚上好～
[16:52] <divamiller> so hyperlink won't work?
[16:52] <jamie4> pulse "sinks" are outputs and "sources" are inputs, right? (only logical way I could figure it...)
[16:52] <divamiller> daya: ????
[16:52] <vish> BabyGirl: check you nautilus preferences
[16:52] <vish> !cn | daya
[16:52] <vish> your*
[16:52] <eoin_> divamiller: take a look at sigil and calibre for e-book creation and management, respectively.
[16:53] <Stava> I cant find the printer on my ubuntu server, on my ubuntu desktop its just plug and play :o
[16:53] <Polah> What's the command to make a file?
[16:53] <divamiller> good idea
[16:53] <Goliath> hey i changed some of my partitions with gparted, i updated my fstab. Do i need to do anything with grub configs? (grub1 here)
[16:53] <eoin_> Polah: touch
[16:53] <jussi> Is there anyway to merge 2 open office writer documents?
[16:53] <astropirate> i installed chrome from the google website as apposed to apt. How can i uninstall it.
[16:53] <divamiller> eoin_: the point is i don't know programming
[16:54] <hidnshadows> astropirate have you tried just deleting all files and dependencies?
[16:54] <astropirate> hidnshadows, i haven't tried anything yet. wanted to ask about the right way of doing it and not fsk things up
[16:55] <jamie4> astropirate: do an apt-get install for chrome (apparently you can install over installed pkgs) and THEN remove it the old fashioned way.
[16:55] <Goliath> hey i changed some of my partitions with gparted, i updated my fstab. Do i need to do anything with grub configs? (grub1 here)
[16:55] <divamiller> eoin_: now how do i design my book cover
[16:55] <hedkandi> I've assigned a static ip to eth0 in etc/network/interfaces. How to I apply the change?
[16:55] <strigoi66> astropirate: use ubuntu software center search for chrome and then install
[16:56] <jrib> hedkandi: reboot?  Maybe just restart networking
[16:56] <Stava> How do I find a printer on my ubuntu server? :o
[16:56] <astropirate> Ahh thanks guys but found it in  synatptic and am removing it now
[16:56] <hedkandi> I actually tried a reboot and no help
[16:56] <jrib> hedkandi: then you did it wrong :)
[16:56] <hedkandi> are there any logs on this?
[16:56] <hedkandi> I mean, where would the logs go for networking?
[16:57] <eoin_> divamiller: Depends, calibre can do it automatically, or you could design on yourself in any image editor (like the gimp, for example)
[16:57] <jrib> hedkandi: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/serverguide/C/network-configuration.html
[16:57] <jamie4> Thanks all, out for now!
[16:57] <divamiller> eoin_: which app do you recommend calibre or sigil
[16:57] <divamiller> since i am not an IT person
[16:58] <eoin_> divamiller: sigil to create books (epub format) caliber to manage and convert books.

[17:02] <jokle> thats exactly what I did
[17:03] <ceo> ikonia, PS1 what ?
[17:03] <ikonia> ceo: PS1, it's the varible that manages the command prompt
[17:03] <jrib> jokle: that wouldn't have any effect on your system
[17:03] <Shoryu> No wait, I might be thinking of awk ....
[17:03] <jokle> well it does
[17:03] <ceo> PS1: command not founD ikonia
[17:04] <jokle> because that's exactly what I did
[17:04] <ikonia> ceo: it's not a command, it's a environment variable as I said
[17:04] <jokle> jokle: so now if I reboot I won't be able to login?

[17:06] <meowsus> I have a MySQL conflict. Some application is running MySQL at startup and I need to figure out which application is using it and make sure it doesn't start by itself anymore. How can i do that?
[17:06] <rigved> vAd0r: install the corresponding package.
[17:06] <jrib> jokle: what error are you getting exactly and when doing what?
[17:06] <jokle> jrib: I type in sudo I get "unknown uid 1000"

[17:07] <ceo> am love you
[17:08] <eoin_> Samuel2: www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2
[17:08] <Pumpkin-> Samuel2: try "netstat -anl" for what ports your machine is listening on.
[17:08] <meowsus> Is there any way to tell if an application that is running is also calling MySQL to run in the background?
[17:08] <ikonia> meowsus: it won't be
[17:08] <jokle> jrib: what do you mean?
[17:08] <meowsus> ikonia, ?
[17:08] <jrib> jokle: pastebin the contents of your /etc/passwd
[17:08] <Pumpkin-> Samuel2: adding sudo and -p will tell you what process is doing the listening as well
[17:08] <Yerushalmi> Hey folks, I have a question about AisleRiot Solitaire, and the "Get Help Online" option in the menu pointed me to a site that told me to ask my question in this forum. But that can't be right, can it?
[17:09] <ikonia> Yerushalmi: why not ?
[17:09] <iamaregee> is http://in.archive.ubuntu.com down  ???
[17:09] <ikonia> iamaregee: it was the other day
[17:09] <hidnshadows> Yerushalmi, we deal in all things ubuntu, ask away
[17:09] <divamiller> time to sleep
[17:09] <Pici> iamaregee: Someone here earlier suggested that it might be.
[17:09] <Yerushalmi> ikonia: *shrug* I just figured that this channel was for system issues and suchlike.
[17:09] <iamaregee> well ...today aswell ..i guess
[17:09] <jokle> jrib: They are empty
[17:10] <jokle> jrib: I am fucked now , ain't I?
[17:10] <meowsus> ikonia, MySQL is definitely running each time i start up Ubuntu, and I need to figure out what application might be calling it.
[17:10] <ikonia> jokle: you need to stop the language
[17:10] <iamaregee> so which other server will be appropriate ???
[17:10] <jokle> ok
[17:10] <ikonia> meowsus: upstart is the init process that starts it
[17:10] <jrib> jokle: you should have /etc/passwd- .  Copy that.  Is /etc/shadow also empty?
[17:10] <Samuel2> thx Pumpkin- it works
[17:11] <Samuel2> should it be netstat -anl -p or netstat -anlp ?
[17:11] <meowsus> ikonia, I'll investigate. Thank you.
[17:11] <Pici> Samuel2: They're the same thing.
[17:11] <Yerushalmi> Okay then. In the game "Agnes" it says in the rules that "Groups of cards in sequence and same color can be moved as a unit." But it won't let me move such a group if a base card is anywhere inside it (i.e. not the top one on the pile). Is this a bug or a feature?
[17:11] <Samuel2> cool thanks for far
[17:11] <jokle> jrib: shadow it is also empty
[17:11] <jrib> jokle: ok.  You can copy /etc/shadow- too.
[17:12] <jrib> jokle: note the unshadow command you pasted did not cause this, you must have done something else
[17:12] <jokle> jrib:  "shadow" has some codes in it
[17:12] <jokle> jrib: so where do I copt it?
[17:13] <jrib> jokle: why did you say "shadow it is also empty" and now you say ""shadow" has some codes in it".  Those two statements seem to contradict one another.  Can you explain?
[17:13] <jOZe> hola
[17:13] <annecy> anybody got a clue how to use Eboard? specifically how do I castle?
[17:13] <jokle> jrib: because I first oopened "shadow -" shadow with a line
[17:13] <jokle> jrib: and that one was empty
[17:13] <strigoi66> what rooms are available that can help with pxe/thinclient server config's?
[17:13] <jokle> jrib: you want me to paste it
[17:13] <jokle> jrib: in pastebin?
[17:14] <semitones> How do I make a disk image of a usb partition?
[17:14] <jrib> jokle: no, you should not share shadow with people as that contains hashes of your passwords.  I want you to check /etc/shadow.  Is that empty?
[17:14] <semitones> cat something?
[17:14] <jokle> no
[17:14] <Danielcg25> semitones: Meow.
[17:14] <jokle> jrib: that file has some codes in it
[17:14] <jokle> jrib: it is not empty
[17:14] <jrib> jokle: then that's fine.  Only /etc/passwd is empty?
[17:14] <jokle> yes
[17:14] <eoin_> semitones: dd
[17:14] <jokle> jrib: yes
[17:15] <jrib> jokle: run: sudo cp /etc/passwd- /etc/passwd
[17:15] <Danielcg25> I have a 160GB HDD and a 1TB HDD. The 160 has Windows 7, and the 1Tb is blank. I want to transfer the data from the Windows 7 drive to the 1TB drive, but I want to increase the size (ie, no 160GB partition on 1TB drive). Then, I want to dual boot Ubuntu 10.10
[17:15] <semitones> ty eoin, what extension is customary for dd files?
[17:15] <jokle> jrib: I get "sudo iud 1000"
[17:16] <semitones> .bin?
[17:16] <genii-around> semitones: .img
[17:16] <jrib> jokle: oh, right.  Do it in recovery mode or from a live cd
[17:16] <strigoi66> Danielcg25: are all partitions on 1 drive or 2
[17:16] <semitones> eoin_, so something like this? dd /dev/sdc > ~/Recovery/usb.img
[17:16] <eoin_> semitones: you can name the output file whateve you like...
[17:17] <Danielcg25> strigoi66: ?
[17:17] <Danielcg25> The 1TB is completely blank, new drive.
[17:17] <eoin_> semitones: yeah, think you nedd -if and -of switches before those paths, iirc
[17:17] <Danielcg25> There is one partition on the 160GB drive and that's windows 7. (it also has another recovery partition, but I don't need it)
[17:18] <jokle> jrib: what is the command again? what I can't start it from recovery mode too?
[17:18] <strigoi66> Danielcg25: ok , so you want to transfer win7 to 1tb hdd and reformat the primary drive
[17:18] <strigoi66> ?
[17:18] <semitones> dd -if /dev/sdc > -of ~/Recovery/usb.img, or do I not need the angle bracket anymore
[17:19] <jrib> jokle: sudo cp /etc/passwd- /etc/passwd  (order is VERY important); if you cannot start recovery mode, use a live cd to mount your install and copy passwd- to passwd
[17:19] <Danielcg25> strigoi66: No, the 1TB is going to be the primary drive. I want to end up with Windows 7 and Ubuntu dual booted on a single, 1TB drive with 2 partitions
[17:19] <jokle> jrib: thanks i will try it if it works i will kiss you

[17:24] <vAd0r> every time i log into ubuntu it takes be back to login screen
[17:24] <vAd0r> i guess it didnt like the libcryto files i put in /usr/lib
[17:24] <vAd0r> said something about error loading elf classes
[17:25] <drc> BajK: I understand they have added new elements to the ubuntu font (medium and the like)
[17:25] <semitones> BajK, maybe in system>preferences>appearance they changed the rendering options to be smoother by default

[17:25] <myk_robinson> I need to mount an OSX hard drive in Ubuntu with read/write privileges. help?
[17:25] <eoin_> semitones: think that switch is option, but if you know the blocksize used on your usb drive.
[17:26] <Renski> Can anyone recommend a USB tape drive which works well with ubuntu 10.10?
[17:26] <eoin_> semitones: Sorry that last one was only semi-readable - but I hope you get my drift...
[17:27] <multipass> http://ubuntu4beginners.wordpress.com/2011/03/23/adobe-photoshop-premier-might-come-to-linux/
[17:27] <jokle> jrib: are you there?
[17:27] <multipass> submittt!
[17:27] <coz_> Renski,  mm that one stumps me
[17:27] <jokle> jrib: it could not start neither in recovery mode nor in normal mode
[17:27] <semitones> eoin_, I think so. I could try to find the blocksize of the USB, but I already started the dd command without it
[17:27] <jokle> jrib: I told you it wouldn't start
[17:27] <jokle> jrib: so what do I do now?
[17:27] <coz_> Renski,  did you google any search results?...yes?    maybe ubuntu  usb tape drives
[17:28] <semitones> myk_robinson, a good starting point would be "man mount" -- let us know what command you are about to use and then someone may be able to doublecheck for you
[17:28] <myk_robinson> semitones: I actually just hooked it up via a usb adapter and Ubuntu auto-mounted it. but I cannot access some directories due to a permissions error. i cant change ownership or permissions because it is showing to be read only
[17:28] <arleas> stupid question, but how do i update software in ubuntu? my open office is quite old, for example...
[17:29] <arand> arleas: In general, you wait for the new version of ubuntu.
[17:29] <semitones> myk_robinson, you'll need to unmount it, and remount it with a custom command, since the automount magic is read-only by default for that case I guess
[17:29] <jokle> jrib: are tou there man?
[17:29] <coz_> arleas,   open a terminal   sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[17:30] <arleas> arand: i'm running 10.10 but I have openoffice 3.2
[17:30] <coz_> arleas,  if anything is available as an update ,, that command will do it
[17:30] <jokle> jrib: ???
[17:30] <myk_robinson> semitones: are you able to advise on the command? googling as we speak, and i just instlled some hfstools from synaptic
[17:30] <Goliath> Hey i want to mount with fstab the ntfs partition i created with windowsXP. Should i use ntfs or ntfs-3g filesystem?

[17:31] <abuanoname> hai... am have prblem
[17:31] <abuanoname> :)
[17:31] <semitones> myk_robinson, the command to use would be the simple "mount" command, I think. To know what options to use, type "man mount" into the terminal
[17:31] <abuanoname> how to make short cut for open my text editor
[17:31] <abuanoname> am need put on f11
[17:32] <arand> arleas: That is the default version for 10.10 (3.2.1-7ubuntu1.1)
[17:32] <semitones> myk_robinson, your system can already mount it, you just have to tell it how to mount it

[17:35] <abuanoname> nice ikonia, the problem is, so many emplyed can't used some application

[17:38] <semitones> brucelee, it would be helpful if you said what kind of isos you want to make
[17:38] <arand> coz_: It is basically only meant for doing a full dist-upgrade after editing sources.list, in othere cases, if it does something, it will be the equivalent of a partial upgrade (afaik), which in almost all normal cases should be avoided.

[17:42] <jrib> jokle: as I said, use a live cd.
[17:42] <mkanyicy> how can I ignore a disturbing person here?
[17:42] <coz_> arand,  I believe dist-upgrade name has changed to full-upgrade,,, so the confusion isnt there   not sure about that let me check
[17:42] <semitones> myk_robinson, something like sudo mkdir /media/MAC

[17:50] <coz_> arand,   as far as I am aware,,,apt-get upgrade will upgrade the package versions on your system when a newer version is available  and apt-get dist-upgrade will be able to remove packages in favor of other, higher priority packages. Both use the package manager so they both use package dependencies.

[17:58] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  mplayer can do it.. but i havent done that in years.
[17:58] <drc> cap_: Maybe http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1646166 will help?
[17:58] <vAd0r> how can i fix my libraires
[17:58] <cap_> Dr_Willis: i'm seeing something about nvidia-185
[17:59] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  tell mplayer the proper -vo WHATEVER  for its video output.
[17:59] <Dr_Willis> cap_:  if thats what the addational drivers tool suggests.. then thats what to use.
[17:59] <jrib> brubelsabs: run ssh on port 443 or 80?
[17:59] <xro> ayecee, i would like to use unbound... and it requires openssl 1.0.0 to check dnssec
[18:00] <ayecee> xro: the instructions look correct
[18:00] <brubelsabs> jrib: I think then I am not able to use https for web traffic, right?
[18:00] <Ileden> brubelsabs: I'd make the admin interface on the server run on some port that is allowed by the client.
[18:00] <jiltdil> Dr_Willis; i have tried it mplayer -vo svga -ao sdl /path/to/video but the video is coming in 2 part means it is splited on terminal in two parts
[18:00] <xro> ayecee, same for me... thanks to confirm it... double check is better...
[18:00] <Ileden> brubelsabs: i'd say it'll only affect the _incoming_ traffic.
[18:00] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  i dont know what you mean by 2 parts. you mean its not displayed properly?
[18:00] <jiltdil> Dr_Willis: usinf fbdev gives only audio so i used the aboove command
[18:00] <cap_> Dr_Willis: where is the additional drivers tool?
[18:01] <jiltdil> Dr_willis: yes like that
[18:01] <arand> coz_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1343434 If I am not mistaken, dist-upgrade will perform the same function as a partial upgrade.
[18:01] <cap_> Dr_Willis: (don't see it and am in KDE)
[18:01] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  the fb and sdl stff can only handle spefic resolutions. that can be an issue
[18:01] <Dr_Willis> cap_:  run 'jockey-qt'
[18:01] <Ileden> brubelsabs: so you couldn't have a web server running on the server. But you could do outwards port 80 traffic still from the server. I'm not sure though.
[18:01] <cap_> Dr_Willis: how do I bring it up from cli/
[18:01] <jiltdil> Dr_Willis: as the video is in HD so perhabs this is the cause of the error
[18:01] <cap_> jockey-qt: command not found
[18:02] <rcconf> hi people
[18:02] <brubelsabs> Ileden: Yes, ATM my workstation has an active apache running...
[18:02] <Ileden> brubelsabs: ah.
[18:02] <cap_> Dr_Willis: Apt-get install jockey???
[18:02] <brubelsabs> Ileden: I think must switch it off then..
[18:02] <Dr_Willis> cap_:  its installed by default
[18:03] <Dr_Willis> cap_:  the addational-driver tool IS 'jockey' just a differnt name then its icon
[18:03] <Dr_Willis> !info jocky
[18:03] <Ileden> brubelsabs: do you have access to a third, port-unrestricted computer on the net? you could use that to relay traffic. No idea how to configure that though. :)
[18:03] <Dr_Willis> jockey-gtk   jockey-kde   jockey-text
[18:03] <ULTeRioR_> proxy ftw ;p
[18:03] <cap_> jokcey gtk?  yea see those
[18:03] <brubelsabs> I've read about phpTerm and MindTerm.. but I need ssh also te be working with other tools using ssh://user@host
[18:03] <indrajeet_> want flash album creator
[18:04] <indrajeet_> want flash album creator
[18:04] <Dr_Willis> indrajeet_:  so?
[18:04] <Ileden> brubelsabs: also, if you only need the apache yourself, you could move it to run at a different port, levaing e.g. 443 open for admin connections
[18:04] <binder> irc.anonops.ru
[18:04] <cap_> It says the driver is installed and already in use.  Where is the Nvidia config or setup app??
[18:04] <brubelsabs> Ileden: I read about corkscrew and http proxies like squid.. but I think this is to heavy to configure
[18:04] <Dr_Willis> cap_:  theres a nvidia-settings tool
[18:05] <indrajeet_> Dr_Willis:want flash album creator software for ubuntu
[18:05] <brubelsabs> Ileden: but this will only work with a third computer..
[18:05] <Goliath> i am adding windowsXP to my grub/menu.lst.  should i use rootnoverify= or just root= ?
[18:05] <Dr_Willis> indrajeet_:  so check the package manager, or the forums/google.. ive  no idea what that software even would do from its description.
[18:05] <Dr_Willis> indrajeet_:  if theres a windows app that does what you want. try it in wine.
[18:06] <Dr_Willis> Goliath:  i recall using noverify in the past.
[18:06] <brubelsabs> Ileden: thanks.. I though there would have been a very easy solution :).. I will first try to switch off apache, and report sshd.
[18:06] <rcconf> What is the negative side of disabling SysRq?
[18:06] <Dr_Willis> Goliath:  i forget why...
[18:06] <Ileden> brubelsabs: could be there is an easy option, but I just don't know about it :)
[18:06] <faustisch> Where does "apt-get update" store the URLs of packages?
[18:06] <Goliath> my windows partition is /dev/sda4, what should i wirte in rootnoverify? hd(0,4) ?
[18:06] <ansh> How to disable or remove keyring feature in Maverick. I tried using Configuration Editor but  there is no app with name
[18:09] <Ileden> brubelsabs: hmm, you could with some scripting make it so that there's some special url that you can trigger to switch off apache (or at least the ssl side at 443), and turn on the admin interface (i assume sshd) at 443, then with the ssh you could again run the script to close the ssh and boot apache back up with ssl support :)
[18:10] <wildc4rd> evening all
[18:10] <rcconf> hi wildc4rd
[18:10] <Ileden> brubelsabs: still couldn't run both apache with https, and the sshd at the same of course. so depends on whether you need that.
[18:10] <Gwar> Hi guys. I need some help getting Neverwinter Nights 2 running. I followed the guide in the Wine AppDB (and have tried Wine 1.3.9,10 and 16) and I keep getting the same error, the game says "Cannot find any Direct3D hardware, the game will now exit" and exits cleanly. The guide says It should work, even with ATi Cards (which I have, an HD5750) so I am stumped as to why it wont work. :'(
[18:11] <Gwar> Oh crap
[18:11] <Gwar> Sorry, wrong channel.
[18:11] <rcconf> #winehq
[18:12] <Gwar> Yes Yes, Sorry
[18:12] <Gwar> Im in there lol
[18:12] <RussellAlan> what the command to switch x sessionjs?
[18:12] <rcconf> RussellAlan: ctrl+alt+f9 to f12?
[18:13] <mansour> ok
[18:13] <rcconf> not a command though
[18:13] <ayecee> rcconf: chvt maybe
[18:15] <fidyduce> ok so nautilus says everything is right, but when ever i click on anything above "Computer" under PLACES it opens vlc can someone help me?
[18:15] <Ileden> brubelsabs: There probably is some "right" way to do that sort of trigger, but one quick solution would be to have a simple script running with sudo rights periodically checking if a trigger file exists, and if it does remove the file and do the toggle. And simple web script could then just create the file when needed.
[18:16] <lolmac> hello, how do i change the decimal period to the decimal comma?

[18:28] <balloti> the man of mount said http://pastebin.com/RKNv0uxp so to mount a device with other user than root I do sudo mount -o uid=1000 gid=1000 /dev/sdb /mnt/usb/, but it refuse to mount, so what is the right syntax please?
[18:28] <faustisch> Dr_Willis, Where does it store the URLs?

[18:29] <l3niwi3c> why?
[18:30] <blsmith> I'm running ubuntu server 10.04 with samba shared home drives for two users.  I can connect to one through my macbook pro, the other one cann't connect through vista.  Any explination for this?

[18:32] <ayecee> perlmonkey1: sometimes, yes
[18:32] <perlmonkey1> that would be neat
[18:32] <ayecee> perlmonkey1: quite often just zeroing the drive with "dd if=/dev/zero of=drive" will cause the drive to remap the bad sectors onto spare sectors.
[18:32] <blsmith> I'm having issues with ubntu SAMBA through to Vista.
[18:32] <ayecee> providing the drive still has spare sectors :)
[18:33] <perlmonkey1> ayecee wow thats a lot

[18:43] <tonyaldo> perlmonkey1, damn lol
[18:43] <perlmonkey1> hellslinger should be possible in Open Office
[18:43] <abuanoname> if i open back terminal that still abuanoname@abuanoname:$
[18:43] <erUSUL> hellslinger: use openoffice¿?
[18:43] <Dr_Willis> abuanoname:  be sure to do all the proper changes. then use the hostname command.
[18:43] <princej88> Dr_Willis: what is your preferred irc client? which one is the most popular?
[18:43] <ayecee> Dr_Willis: right, but it wasn't always its own option, used to have to do --purge remove
[18:43] <perlmonkey1> hellsinger OO can export to PDF and reads HTML
[18:43] <abuanoname> yes am have do it for change my hostname
[18:43] <hellslinger> perlmonkey1, erUSUL, I would like it to render with my CSS, can it do that?
[18:43] <abuanoname> am used sudo gedit /etc/hostname
[18:43] <perlmonkey1> tonyaldo: can you access it as a drive when you use Shotwell?
[18:44] <abuanoname> and edit abuanoname to robot but not happen
[18:44] <perlmonkey1> hellslinger: I'm not sure about that, possibly, would have to try it
[18:44] <tonyaldo> perlmonkey1, nope
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> abuanoname:  as the factoid states ,  Yu need to use the hostname command also.. to set it
[18:44] <xro> hi, i need the last version of ldns... i try to build it without success... i get an error during the "sudo make" --> http://dpaste.com/526367/   can you take a look and give me an hint?
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> abuanoname:  Or reboot...
[18:45] <perlmonkey1> tonyaldo try F-Spot then that at least mounts it and makes it appear as a drive, its not so bad having to start F-Spot as it allows you to thumbnail view/transfer the pics anyway
[18:45] <mkanyicy> hellslinger, lp?
[18:45] <Dr_Willis> abuanoname:  you want to be carefull doing this. You can break your 'sudo' rights. if not carefull

[18:47] <wolverine> I typed sudo unshadow /etc/passwd /etc/shadow> shadowfile and then I get "I am no one " in the terminal what should I do?
[18:47] <drc> princej88: np...irc can be confusing at first
[18:48] <hellslinger> mkanyicy, have you ever done this before or are you just guessing? because telling me to RTFM is lame
[18:48] <maxx0r> when i boot, i get a grub shelö
[18:48] <maxx0r> shell* what can i do?
[18:48] <princej88> drc: haha yes. I just registered my nickname today because i was in #ubuntu-unregged
[18:48] <BlaDe^> I just did tar cfz databases_final.tar.gz *.sql  --- when I try to untar it on my server it gives an error though..
[18:49] <danial> ند
[18:49] <perlmonkey1> hellslinger why not take a screenshot of your browser window?
[18:49] <BlaDe^> gzip: stdin: not in gzip format  -- any ideas why?
[18:49] <lolmac> perlmonkey1: Language & Text is unresponsive, is there a name for it in the system monitor i could end its proccess?
[18:49] <princej88> !register
[18:49] <mkanyicy> hellslinger, thats not what i said
[18:49] <tonyaldo> perlmonkey1, yea f-spot doesn't even detect it
[18:49] <perlmonkey1> lolmac: I have same problem, unresponsive
[18:49] <perlmonkey1> tonyaldo: did you go into Choose folder..
[18:49] <perlmonkey1> under Import
[18:50] <perlmonkey1> you have to actually select the camera, it should appear when you click Choose Folder
[18:50] <BlaDe^> any ideas with my issue?
[18:51] <tonyaldo> perlmonkey1, yea says choose folder and under that no camera detected
[18:51] <perlmonkey1> make sure camera is switched on and in picture viewing mode, it should change to that mode by itself tho
[18:51] <hellslinger> perlmonkey1, needs to be non-bitmapped. I'd like to use HTML as a typesetter to produce a pdf
[18:51] <erUSUL> BlaDe^: tar cfz databases_final.tar.gz *.sql <<< this command is wrong... the f should be the last in the options
[18:51] <perlmonkey1> Hellslinger understood
[18:51] <oCean> BlaDe^: you did not create a gzip archive
[18:51] <erUSUL> BlaDe^: what does « file databases_final.tar.gz » says about the file?
[18:51] <tonyaldo> perlmonkey1, yea =/ I unplugged it shut it off and plugged it back in
[18:52] <perlmonkey1> tonyaldo: damn, what model cam do you have? let me try mine just to make sure I never missed anything
[18:52] <oCean> BlaDe^: you just created a tar archive with the name .gz
[18:52] <tonyaldo> perlmonkey1, SX30 IS

[18:54] <perlmonkey1> welcome
[18:54] <oCean> BlaDe^: the command created an tar.gz, which also goes by the name of .tgz. You should be able to *test* extraction with "tar tvfz databases_final.tar.gz"
[18:54] <perlmonkey1> lolmac: let me check the processes
[18:55] <roger_padactor> what would I be looking for if I want to do ssh name  and it connects me directly with ssh username@domain.com

[18:56] <perlmonkey1> to get the id, type: ps -A
[18:57] <Roasted__> Question - When I try to authenticate to our file server, it comes up with Username - Domain - Password. Username auto populates as the user logged in, and DOMAIN auto populates with "Workgroup". Is there a way I can set it to default to something other than "Workgroup"??
[18:59] <Amoz> Roasted__, do you mean when you're connected to it?
[18:59] <chipmank> if i plug the live ethernet into the adapter then the useb the green light comes on on little box
[19:00] <Amoz> Roasted__, or is it the dialogue you want a default value for?
[19:00] <Roasted__> Amoz, I mean when I get that authentication box asking for username, domain, etc. I'd like it to come up by default with our domain name instead of "workgroup."
[19:00] <chipmank> do i need to make up some sort of mac address for theadapter
[19:00] <Roasted__> Amoz, it arleady comes up with the domain name of the user logged in, which is good. It just doesn't put in our domain, and defaults to workgroup instead.
[19:00] <Amoz> Roasted__, You can create bookmarks for servers and stuff, if you want
[19:00] <Roasted__> Amoz, I'd just like to swap that out so students don't have to change anything.
[19:00] <Roasted__> Amoz, I can, and I have.
[19:00] <Roasted__> Amoz, when I click on a bookmark, it comes up with this authentication box.
[19:01] <Amoz> Roasted__, samba server?
[19:01] <Roasted__> Amoz, since I can't figure out how to streamline it for our students, I just want to make it as easy as possible, and since the username auto populates, it'd be nice to have the domain section come through with our domain by default instead ofw orkgroup.
[19:01] <Roasted__> Amoz, windows file server, but using samba on the linux boxes.
[19:02] <Amoz> Roasted__, if you create a bookmark, shouldn't that make use of the workgroup you specify for the bookmark?
[19:02] <Dr_Willis> Theres books in teh samba-doc package on configuring samba Roasted__  but it could be you are having more of a nautilus issue.
[19:02] <Amoz> Roasted__, like, just a password dialogue appearing?
[19:02] <Roasted__> Amoz, maybe you and I are thinking of two different things. Are you referring to bookmarks with the left nav of nautilus?
[19:03] <Roasted__> Dr_Willis, I'm not using nautilus, though.
[19:03] <Roasted__> Dr_Willis, well, I suppose I am, but maybe not.
[19:03] <Amoz> Roasted__, yup I am
[19:03] <Sevith> how can i list the partition table from command line?
[19:03] <Dr_Willis> Roasted__:  the default gnome file manager is nautilus
[19:03] <Roasted__> Dr_Willis, I created a launcher on the desktop. Right click - Add launcher - Location, etc.
[19:03] <Dr_Willis> Sevith:  sudo fdisk -l
[19:03] <perlmonkey1> Sevith: fdisk -l
[19:03] <Sevith> oh god..
[19:03] <Roasted__> Dr_Willis, so I'm not making bookmarks through nautilus but instead through a quick launch icon on the desktop.
[19:03] <Sevith> i feel retarded lol sorry
[19:03] <Roasted__> Amoz, samba works kind of retardedly with nautilus bookmarks.
[19:04] <Roasted__> Amoz, I tried that route, but they often rename themselves to "smb" sometimes.
[19:04] <Amoz> Roasted__, what if you go to Places->Connect to server?
[19:04] <Roasted__> Amoz, and I can't have 6 entries of "smb" without the REAL name showing. I have no clue why it does this.
[19:04] <Dr_Willis> Roasted__:   if you are using the gnome file manager - you are using Nautilux,.
[19:04] <Roasted__> Amoz, I can do that, but that defies the ENTIRE point of what I'm trying to do.
[19:04] <Amoz> Roasted__, can't you specify workgroup there?
[19:04] <Roasted__> Amoz, all I want is "domain" to show up as our domain - NOT workgroup by default.
[19:04] <Amoz> oh
[19:04] <xro> i get this error (relocation R_X86_64_32S against `.text' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC)... what should i do? i tried export CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -fPIC" without success
[19:05] <Roasted__> Amoz, places - connect to server requires the user to put in all 3 levels of authentication. User, domain, password. If I use my shortcut links I created, they just have to remove "workgroup" and type our domain and then type in PW.
[19:05] <Dr_Willis> smb://ip.to.the.box/sharename    can also work. but  Im not even sure how workgroup differs from domain.
[19:05] <maxx0r> when i boot, only the grub shell shows up, not the grub menu. what can i do?
[19:05] <Roasted__> Amoz, but like I said, I just want workgroup to come up as our domain by default, so it says steve_jobs, JOBS as the domain, and then they just enter their pw and they're in
[19:05] <Roasted__> Amoz, just trying to streamline it a BIT more is all
[19:07] <Roasted__> Question - When I try to authenticate to our file server, it comes up with Username - Domain - Password. Username auto populates as the user logged in, and DOMAIN auto populates with "Workgroup". Is there a way I can set it to default to something other than "Workgroup"??
[19:07] <ckenda1_79> All, I am seeing the following issue on an older 9.04 server.. any help is appreciated.. (http://pastebin.com/3sRTq7bt)
[19:07] <Sentynel> hi guys, just set up 10.10 and installed all updates on a new Acer Aspire Revo R3700, and it locks up on shutdown; hit the shutdown button and it just freezes. I've tried dropping out to tty, stopping gdm, which works fine, and then issuing the shutdown command, which promptly locks up. I can't see anything useful in the logs, though I'm not necessarily looking in the right place. it just seems to stop. any ideas what's going on?
[19:08] <ckenda1_79> how do I determine if packages are being held back?
[19:08] <Dr_Willis> Roasted__:  i would check the smb.conf file. if its  a server setting. it would be in there.

[19:23] <rcconf> lmontrieux: so Magic SysRsc can be a security issue.
[19:23] <perlmonkey> some questions may be better directed to more specific chatrooms if you dont get any answers here
[19:23] <Sevith> erUSUL, :D
[19:23] <perlmonkey> there is a networking channel
[19:23] <Roty> I am right now a Vista user, after I get my PC built I will set up a Ubuntu micheen

[19:24] <maco> rcconf: i mean...they could also unplug it
[19:24] <rcconf> maco: I know that.
[19:24] <erUSUL> rcconf: if someone has physicall access to your pc to do a sysrq then it can do a lot of other things.
[19:24] <lmontrieux> rcconf, if someone has physical access to your computer, you have bigger security issues than Magis SysReq anyway
[19:24] <rcconf> maco: no if they cant tounch the box ;)
[19:24] <Roty> No so I can use my PCs internet over a secure VPN while I am out in the city
[19:24] <rcconf> maco: if they have only access to keyboard and screen i mean :)
[19:25] <lmontrieux> rcconf, that said, you can deactivate them
[19:25] <kubanc> is the usb C-Media Electronics, Inc. Audio Adapter microfon working in ubuntu?

[19:26] <negev> hi, does anyone know if its possible to get the B&W MM-1 speakers working on linux?  using the 10.10 livedvd, they are detected as an audio device and i can choose "analog output" as a profile for them in sound prefs, but they're not listed under the 'output' section so i've no way of switching the audio over to them.

[19:27] <snapp> hi i have this error: Errors were encountered while processing: slapd
[19:27] <princej88> Roty: wouldn't it be not worth your time since you are connecting through random wifi access points anyway?
[19:28] <erUSUL> ruan: do « tailf /var/log/messages » and plug the device. see what device if any it gets
[19:28] <r4ffy> hello do you remember a name of application what can installed on ubuntu server what permitted of configure a ldap by web if in style of active directory?

[19:28] <ava_> type at google is better, or i should maximized my window ?
[19:28] <Roty> Thanks anyway\

[19:29] <princej88> Roty: yes, you are not asking my permission. I wasn't trying to give you permission
[19:30] <adek> does anybody of you tried puting windows xp on usb stick under linux using unetbootin? its quite tricky and i wonder if it is possible
[19:30] <ajay20> hello friendz
[19:30] <drc> ava_: You are really trying to ensure no one pays attention to your question, just your loud mouth :)
[19:30] <Dr_Willis> adek:  unetbootin cant do it.. as far as i know.
[19:30] <snapp> hi i have this error: Errors were encountered while processing: slapd
[19:30] <ava_> 1641 ? oh ,....
[19:30] <erUSUL> adek: unetbootin does not support windows
[19:30] <brucelee> how do I change from gnome to kde desktop?
[19:30] <princej88> Roty: good luck with your endeavor
[19:30] <ruan> erUSUL: http://pastebin.com/sLH3nRd9
[19:30] <erUSUL> adek: ask in ##windows
[19:30] <lmontrieux> brucelee, just install kubuntu-desktop
[19:30] <ava_> drc ... i'm new bie here
[19:30] <adek> i just read there it can work with any iso, but probably there was also information that only linux iso's
[19:30] <princej88> brucelee: you have to install the kubuntu-desktop then you can pick at log in
[19:31] <adek> erUSUL: they sent me here ;P
[19:31] <brucelee> so re-install entire os?
[19:31] <lmontrieux> brucelee, no, just kubuntu-desktop
[19:31] <drc> ava_: You're a RUDE newbie is what...settle down and be patient.
[19:31] <princej88> brucelee: no. you can just install the kde environment
[19:31] <Dr_Willis> adek:  unetbootin does not support windowsxp or any other windows... so theres your answer.
[19:31] <lmontrieux> brucelee, you'll have both gnome and kde and will be able to chose at login
[19:31] <adek> ok, so does anybody of you know about any way of putting windows on usb stick to but it?
[19:31] <erUSUL> ruan: it gets a hid device... like the ones for mouses or keyboards ...
[19:31] <brucelee> sorry newbie
[19:31] <adek> Dr_Willis: got it ;)
[19:31] <Dr_Willis> adek:  theres windows tools to do that.
[19:31] <ava_> okay okay im try ing to be apatient
[19:32] <princej88> brucelee: you can search for 'kde desktop' in synaptic manager
[19:32] <adek> Dr_Willis: but i have only linux to deal with it
[19:32] <drc> ava_: Ask your question..wait, if no one answers in 10 or 15 minutes, ask again...politely
[19:32] <ruan> erUSUL: hmm
[19:32] <lmontrieux> brucelee, the only stupid question is the one that isn't asked :)
[19:32] <brucelee> I'm in there now
[19:32] <ava_>  i just sit and read your doing says
[19:32] <Dr_Willis> adek:  never seen a linux tool to do that. all i can say is check google.
[19:32] <daniel_> how can i make it so my computer doesnt lock up
[19:32] <erUSUL> ruan: generic-usb 0003:0001:0000.0008: hiddev96,hidraw0: USB HID v1.10 Device [None USB Device] on usb-0000:00:02.0-2/input0 <<<
[19:32] <brucelee> thnx
[19:32] <princej88> brucelee: search 'kde desktop'
[19:32] <adek> Dr_Willis: thanks ;P
[19:32] <BluesKaj> adek, ask in ##windows
[19:32] <Dr_Willis> adek:  there may be some windows apps that work in wine.
[19:32] <adek> I asked on ##windows! :P
[19:32] <ruan> erUSUL: i replugged my keyboard and it said generic-usb 0003:04D9:1702.0007: input,hidraw2: USB HID v1.10 Device [  USB Keyboard] on usb-0000:00:02.0-4/input1
[19:33] <perlmonkey> daniel_ find the cause of the lock up, check your error logs first
[19:33] <adek> Dr_Willis: its like using canon to kill fly ;P
[19:33] <drc> ava_: RFemember, people come and go her rather frequently, maybe no one knows the answer to your question, maybe some one who comes in later will, that is why you repeat the question at longer intervals
[19:33] <ava_> now i know that user of mine is coloured red here
[19:33] <Dr_Willis> adek:  then do without i guess...
[19:33] <erUSUL> ruan: so?
[19:33] <adek> well, if can't do that then i will have to buy cd :D
[19:33] <daniel_> perlmonkey like when i leave my computer sit for a wile it locks up its a built in feture i just dont know how to disable it
[19:33] <ava_> drc : you know what i itended to
[19:33] <folorn> okay im resizeing my ubuntu partition and could use someone who's very exact and precise . and im use LVPM to do the partitioning and could use some quick help setting up the right size for it. my goal is to alot 100 gigs of a 500 gig hd for the ubuntu but atm im at the very first part it says how much in megs do i want to allow for root ? someone help me for alittle bit to get this done quick? id be very greatful.
[19:34] <perlmonkey> daniel_ oh I see
[19:34] <yaaar> Hi everybody. I have a 32-bit 10.04.02 LTS server that's locking up on me regularly. I get a whole bunch of stack traces in the logs like these: http://pastebin.com/jjQsWb0t ...always seems to be rsync, which makes me think it's related to a backup operation (to a local BackupPC server) ...any idea what might be wrong?
[19:34] <ava_> ubuntu one please....
[19:34] <lmontrieux> daniel_, system->preferences->screensaver
[19:34] <ava_> should i have make a friend here ?
[19:34] <ruan> erUSUL: im not sure :/ but what can i try
[19:34] <drc> ava_: Yes I do...get the answer to <your> question and forget about everyone else here who needs help, that is what you are trying to do...and everyone here knows it. Be patient.
[19:35] <Dr_Willis> ava_:  theres #ubuntuone for specific ubuntuone related issues.
[19:35] <orangejuicecup> sup niggas
[19:35] <erUSUL> ruan: you asked what the device of your UPS was i told which. what is the problem is now?
[19:35] <jiltdil> i have a DVD having iso image how to make it bootable  ?
[19:35] <ruan> erUSUL: i need the device name, like /dev/ttyUSB2
[19:35] <lmontrieux> jiltdil, just burn it to a dvd
[19:35] <brucelee> sorry, just to clarify; I can log out and have a choice between the two right?
[19:35] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  what/where did the iso image come from?
[19:35] <mazn> Hello, I would appreciate some help with my WIFI. With network manager I am able to see all WIFI around, I recive signals from all available networks around. But I can't establish connection. It timeouts. Now I would like to reinstall drivers for network card, how do I do?  I use ubuntu 10.10 and network manager, and my hardware is "Realtek - Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan]"
[19:36] <lmontrieux> brucelee, yep
[19:36] <folorn> anyone feel like helping me with it or resizeing it properly ?
[19:36] <mkanyicy> !language | orangejuicecup
[19:36] <brucelee> excellent thnx again :)
[19:36] <maxx0r> Dr_Willis: when i run "configfile /path/to/grub.cfg", ubuntu starts. strange, isn't it?
[19:36] <ruan> btw, in /dev/ i can't find ttyUSB anything
[19:37] <mkanyicy> folorn, what do you want to resize?
[19:37] <princej88> brucelee: yes
[19:37] <jiltdil> Dr_willis: one of my friend just copy iso image to DVD now he asked me how to make it bootable  as he didnot want to loose that DVD
[19:37] <ruan> only usbmon0,1,2
[19:37] <BluesKaj> orangejuicecup, we speak english here ... no text shortforms etc
[19:37] <erUSUL> ruan: if you did correctly what i asked then your ups is not getting a serial usb device of the form /dev/ttyUSB(number) it is getting one form the input subsystem
[19:38] <erUSUL> from*
[19:38] <jiltdil> Dr_Willis; and i have no idea how to make bootable of tha  dVD that has a copied iso image
[19:38] <erUSUL> ruan: ls -R /dev/input/
[19:38] <erUSUL> ruan: one of those is your ups
[19:38] <Gwar> hey guys. I am using ubuntu 10.04. I have a program here that won't compile for me, cause it's 54 bit. Is there a way to compile it in "32bit" mode?
[19:38] <ruan> my ups needs to be configured to the right serial port
[19:38] <lord_> anyone can help me on some cuda related topics
[19:38] <perlmonkey> jitdil normally the software you use to burn the DVD has an option for bootable iso burning
[19:39] <rcconf> when I boot up from livecd I can have access as root without a password? how this possible
[19:39] <rcconf> .*
[19:39] <perlmonkey> jiltdil if you have already burned the DVD and its not bootable, its too late, you need to burn another DVD
[19:39] <princej88> Gwar: i don't think you can. I am guessing you meant 64 bit
[19:39] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  its some operating system on it? or just pictres or what?
[19:39] <Gwar> yes, i did
[19:39] <erUSUL> ruan: sudores configured to not require a passwword?
[19:39] <jiltdil> perlmonkey; operating system
[19:39] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:   what files are ON the dvd?
[19:40] <ruan> erUSUL: ?
[19:40] <princej88> Gwar: there is probably a 32 bit version of the program that you are trying to compile
[19:40] <lord_> @<rcconf> becose live cd have no password for root
[19:40] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  if he burnt it incorrectly then you dont just 'make it bootable'
[19:40] <jiltdil> Dr_willis:operating system iso file
[19:40] <perlmonkey> is it one image file..or a proper filesystem?
[19:40] <saliak> I'm trying to figure out if i can use a ZP 450 thermal printer under linux.  It looks like it supports EPL2 and ZPL and serial, so it seems like there should be a solution.  Does anyone have experience working with thermal printers under linux?
[19:40] <ruan> if i try to give it the path /dev/input/by-path/pci-0000 it cuts off because it's too long
[19:40] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  if theres an ISO file on it.. (ie: it actually Holds a single file named foo.iso') then you burnt it wrong.
[19:40] <perlmonkey> Dr_Willis has explained it better than I did
[19:41] <erUSUL> ruan: you are not listening to what i say. for the last time. your ups is not recogniced as a usb serial device period. you have seen the kernel messages. is recogniced as an input device
[19:41] <ruan> erUSUL: ok
[19:41] <jiltdil> Dr_willis: he just copied the iso to the dvd
[19:41] <perlmonkey> basically the bootable DVD option needs to be selected or specified before you burn the DVD
[19:41] <jiltdil> so now no way to make it bootable
[19:41] <rcconf> lord_: that's not the point. If I can run sudo programs as root in licecd WITHOUT password.. this is really BAD
[19:41] <perlmonkey> no way
[19:41] <bs_> what is the best software for c ++  programming.can any body tell me.i have to install it
[19:41] <rcconf> so.. I need to set a password for root?
[19:42] <perlmonkey> just copy the iso to HDD if you dont have it already, then burn another DVD
[19:42] <erUSUL> rcconf: why is really bad? is a livecd
[19:42] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  once again.. IF the dvd contains a single file named 'whatever.iso'  you CANT make the dvd 'boot' the iso file  (well you could set up grub2 perhaps) bht that depends on the iso file
[19:42] <perlmonkey> this time select it "bootable" option
[19:42] <erUSUL> !info anjuta | bs_
[19:42] <erUSUL> !ide | bs_
[19:42] <orangejuicecup> sup niggers
[19:42] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  you need to 'burn as image' in the burning apps you are using.
[19:42] <rcconf> erUSUL: it means anyone can have access to all files
[19:42] <rcconf> with a livecd
[19:42] <lmontrieux> rcconf, yes, and?
[19:43] <jiltdil> Dr_willis;perlmonkey:ok thanx
[19:43] <rcconf> lmontrieux: big security issue
[19:43] <lotuspsychje> whats the best package to encrypt/password folder in ubuntu?
[19:43] <rcconf> lmontrieux: so if I encrypt the disk they can still access the files or not?
[19:43] <lmontrieux> rcconf, only if the attacker has physical access to your computer
[19:43] <lmontrieux> rcconf, then no
[19:43] <bteres> Hi. I have googled many different things and have had no luck. I have an acer ao751h netbook and I am trying to use an external monitor with its resolution of 1440x900, but I can only get 1024x768. In the other reslutions the screwen flickers every now and again.
[19:43] <maxx0r> when i boot. a grub shell shows up. running the command "configfile" with my grub.cfg starts ubuntu. what can i do to make grub start ubuntu automatically?
[19:43] <erUSUL> rcconf: i thought we covered this before. if an attacker has physicall access to your pc all bets are off. ssyrq your livecd *his-* livecd. stole your hard disk. smash it with a hammer it can do whatever it wants
[19:43] <lmontrieux> rcconf, but one can still erase the disk
[19:44] <rcconf> lmontrieux: yes, my concern is about the data on it
[19:44] <lmontrieux> rcconf, the solution is to forbid boot on CD and protect your bios with a password
[19:44] <perlmonkey> bteres your resolution may be limited to the maximum on the graphics card? just a thought..
[19:44] <rcconf> lmontrieux: yes and BIOS can be reseted using the jumper
[19:44] <rcconf> :)
[19:44] <jiltdil>  ok is there any way to install operating system with a iso image without the cd/dvd  as i have an iso in the host and want to install it to the guest without use of cd/dvd?
[19:44] <perlmonkey> bteres are you sure the graphics res you want to use is supported by that laptop card?
[19:44] <rcconf> lmontrieux: yeah but I got it :D
[19:44] <bteres> perlmonkey: I'm able to get 1366x768 on the native screen.
[19:45] <lmontrieux> rcconf, that's exactly my point: as soon as someone has physical access to your machine, you *have* a security issue, no matter what you do
[19:45] <perlmonkey> ok
[19:45] <pm_4_help> am modification my hostname and my internet not connet why?
[19:45] <erUSUL> jiltdil: most virtual machines can use iso as cd drives ...
[19:45] <rcconf> ye lmontrieux
[19:45] <lmontrieux> rcconf, the only solution is a big guard with a big gun making sure noone does anything silly
[19:45] <bteres> perlmonkey: also it worked with windows.
[19:45] <erUSUL> !hostname | pm_4_help
[19:45] <rcconf> lol
[19:46] <xro> is there anybody that have some time to help me to build ldns from source???
[19:46] <Tm_T> orangejuicecup: leave such comments out of this channel, thanks
[19:46] <rcconf> lmontrieux: if I encrypt the disk how can I "unencrypt" it using the livecd?
[19:46] <rcconf> decrypt*?
[19:46] <rcconf> :p
[19:46] <lmontrieux> rcconf, you have to know the password and mount it
[19:46] <jiltdil> erUSUL:my mean to say that i have an iso image on my host and i want to install it in on guest shoukd it possible to do that?
[19:47] <rcconf> lmontrieux: like sudo mount /dev/i/want to /tmp ?
[19:47] <rcconf> to /mnt*
[19:47] <lmontrieux> rcconf, with the additional truecrypt stuff, yes
[19:47] <rcconf> hm
[19:47] <rcconf> lmontrieux: I need to learn how to do that via terminal only
[19:48] <jiltdil> erUSUL:ok i found it thanx
[19:48] <rcconf> !decrypt
[19:48] <erUSUL> jiltdil: no problem
[19:48] <lmontrieux> rcconf, then you need to read truecrypt's doc - I just don't know the entire doc from the top of my head
[19:48] <rcmaehl> How do I claim an unclaimed device?
[19:49] <rcconf> lmontrieux: when I install ubuntu it shows an option to encrypt the disk. What application does it use?
[19:49] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: find a driver for it
[19:49] <lmontrieux> rcconf, truecrypt
[19:49] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: I have the driver
[19:49] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: it's a wireless card
[19:49] <rcmaehl> in a netbook
[19:49] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: what device is this?
[19:49] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: which one?
[19:49] <erUSUL> lspci | grep -i net
[19:49] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: realtek (something let me boot up my pc
[19:51] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: I installed a package rebooted which made wireless stop working so I uninstalled it and rebooted and wireless still doesn't work
[19:51] <rcconf> lmontrieux: so UBuntu comes with trucrypt installed by default except for the GUI?
[19:51] <rcconf> truecrypt
[19:52] <ruan> odd.. im getting extremely slow internet.
[19:52] <ruan> oops
[19:52] <ruan> accidently pressed enter
[19:52] <lmontrieux> rcconf, I guess
[19:52] <rcconf> ruan: why is that
[19:52] <lmontrieux> rcconf, I don't like guis
[19:52] <ruan> rcconf: not sure. going to speedtest
[19:52] <erUSUL> lmontrieux: ubuntu does not use truecrypt afaik. it uses the dm-crypt or luks
[19:52] <rcconf> lmontrieux: just booted an fresh install in virtualbox.. it doesnt come with truecrypt
[19:52] <ruan> like, 4 kB/s
[19:52] <rcconf> oh
[19:53] <lmontrieux> rcconf, erUSUL, my mistake
[19:53] <rcconf> erUSUL: so how can I make an Ubuntu install using truecrypt?
[19:53] <rcconf> need to encrypt after normal install?
[19:53] <rcconf> :s
[19:54] <mazn> What does this mean? I found this in my log when i tries to connect to wifi.

[20:00] <theclaw> Hello. I have a 64bit system and want to use 32bit flash. How could I do that?
[20:00] <theclaw> I don't want to use 64bit flash, as it's buggy and sucks.
[20:00] <orangejuicecup> is it bad if I rm /
[20:00] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: pastebin.com/3RzTp75f
[20:00] <erUSUL> orangejuicecup: no; the command will just *fail*
[20:01] <orangejuicecup> erUSUL what if I sudo
[20:01] <erUSUL> orangejuicecup: it will still fail
[20:01] <orangejuicecup> erUSUL what if I use gcc and compile a new rm binary?
[20:01] <rcmaehl> orangejuicecup: ...
[20:02] <rcmaehl> orangejuicecup: please stop trolling
[20:02] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: /lib/modules/2.6.35-28-generic/kernel/drivers/staging/rtl8192e <<< it is there
[20:02] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: what do I do with it?
[20:02] <rcmaehl> how do I make the card work/ get claimed so my wireless lan works
[20:02] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: oops sorry; epic fail on my part... is « sudo modprobe r8192_pci » ...
[20:03] <davidGuda> Hi all.
[20:03] <bittin> Hi
[20:03] <davidGuda> I have myself an issue when installing ubuntu 10.10
[20:03] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: FATAL: Module r8192_pci not found.
[20:03] <davidGuda> or rather when trying to boot the installed.
[20:03] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: find /lib/modules/ -name '*r8192*'
[20:03] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: O_o but bash autocomplete worked
[20:03] <davidGuda> grub says     grub says error: symbol not found: `grub_os_area_addr`
[20:04] <theclaw> Seems to just work.. heh
[20:04] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: sudo depmod -a ?
[20:04] <davidGuda> I have no idea what that means... anyone that can point me in the right direction?
[20:04] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: I used the bash autocomplete and doing sudo modprobe r8192e_pci worked
[20:04] <mr_orange_> how do i update openoffice.org without downloading the file from the website
[20:04] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: ok i am still in lucid they changed the name ;P
[20:04] <rcmaehl> mr_orange_: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[20:05] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: thx
[20:05] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: is the device owned? iwconfig shows a wlan0 ?
[20:05] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: yep
[20:05] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: and it connected
[20:05] <rcconf> erUSUL: r u gonna wait for the next LTS?

[20:05] <pizzas> I am not able to get my shared folders to work between ubuntu 10-10 and Win vista.
[20:05] <germ86> hi
[20:06] <erUSUL> rcmaehl:  « echo r8192e_pci | sudo tee -a /etc/modules »
[20:06] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: should I run that as super user?
[20:06] <Volvagia356> I have an issue here which I suspect might be related to compat-wireless and b43
[20:06] <Volvagia356> I manually patched and built compat-wireless to be used with aircrack-ng
[20:06] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: run it as is... it already uses sudo where needed
[20:06] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: ah
[20:06] <b1lly> how do i set users and acccess permissions for vsftpd
[20:07] <Volvagia356> after rebooting, my wireless doesn't work unless I run "make unload" from compat-wireless's directory and run "modprobe b43"
[20:07] <pizzas> my devices/shared folders is set to my c:// drive my host, what else do I need to do to get my shared folders to work?
[20:07] <Volvagia356> any way to make it so that I don't have to do that?
[20:07] <skullio> i nned some help and i'm even thinking of leaving
[20:07] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: now how do I enable my laptop's pc speaker?
[20:07] <erUSUL> Volvagia356: uninstall the compat-wireless you installed
[20:07] <Volvagia356> (other than automating those commands at startup)
[20:07] <erUSUL> !intelhda | rcmaehl
[20:08] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: no the speaker built into the motherboard that only makes beeps
[20:08] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: also installing newer drivers may help « sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-alsa-$(lsb_release -cs)-generic »
[20:08] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: do laptops sitll have those ? ;P
[20:08] <rcmaehl> mine does
[20:09] <erUSUL> btw « sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-$(lsb_release -cs)-generic » <<< newer wireless drivers too
[20:09] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: that's what I installed that screwed up my wifi card
[20:10] <Jon--> Is there a way to reset battery statistics in Ubuntu? I switched batteries and it's still reporting old capacity (I hibernated, didn't shut down, but I DON'T want to shut down the OS if I don't have to).
[20:10] <xro> what is wrong with my query? nobody never answer me...
[20:10] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: easily undone « sudo apt-get purge linux-backports-modules-wireless-$(lsb_release -cs)-generic »
[20:10] <skullio> ubuntu just freezes... suddenly and unexpectedly just freezes, no mouse no keyboard. My pc is a clone so i don't really know the especifications,
[20:10] <skullio> for my machi
[20:10] <daniel_> how do i keep my computer from locking itself everytime the screen goes off or i leave it idle to long
[20:10] <drc> xro: maybe no body knows the answer?
[20:10] <skullio> isn't there a tool to chek my hardware properties are correct?
[20:10] <jason__> you dont
[20:11] <jason__> booyah
[20:11] <xro> drc, i'm sure that i'm not the first guy who cannot compile a package....
[20:11] <skullio> i tried installing drivers all drivers and it still freezes
[20:11] <Jon--> Is there a way to reset battery statistics in Ubuntu? I switched batteries and it's still reporting old capacity (I hibernated, didn't shut down, but I DON'T want to shut down the OS if I don't have to).
[20:12] <rcmaehl> Also, is there any way to make my led light on my netbook go off when I turn off my wifi card?
[20:13] <pizzas> what can I do on the windows vista side (my host) so I can share folders with my ubuntu 1010 guest?
[20:13] <Anuovis> hello, could anyone help with running Ubuntu at 16 bit color depth?
[20:13] <milamber> Jon--: you can try acpi --battery
[20:14] <Somelauw> Ubuntu reallyu crashes a lot!
[20:14] <rcmaehl> Somelauw: it shouldn't
[20:14] <bs_> is there any software in ubuntu to save battry power like in windows?????
[20:14] <rcmaehl> Somelauw: what did you messup?
[20:14] <rcmaehl> bs_: yes there are many
[20:14] <lmontrieux> bs_, have a look at powertop
[20:14] <Somelauw> I didn't messup. Why do you blame me?
[20:14] <Jon--> milamber, I want it to recalcuate the capacity of the battery, not the % remaining
[20:15] <Somelauw> At random times it just freezes completely.
[20:15] <Jon--> I had a broken battery in, hibernated and swapped out, still reporting broken %, instead of the actual capacity
[20:15] <Somelauw> And I can't find anything about it in the logs.
[20:15] <bs_> rcmaehl,will u plz tell me i have IBM think pad duo T 60 ????
[20:15] <rcmaehl> Somelauw: run free -m in terminal
[20:15] <drc> bs_: Maybe System>Power Managment?
[20:16] <Somelauw> rcmaehl: Under section free: 3291 3667 4631.
[20:16] <lmontrieux> bs_, please use plain English
[20:16] <Somelauw> Seems more than enough for me.
[20:17] <mmance> how do i register my nick
[20:17] <pizzas> Hello, does anyone have shared folders working between windows host and ubuntu guest?
[20:17] <Pici> !register | mmance
[20:17] <mmance> thankyou
[20:17] <rcmaehl> Somelauw: how much ram do you have installed?
[20:17] <Jon--> Is there a way to reset battery statistics in Ubuntu? I switched batteries and it's still reporting old capacity (I hibernated, didn't shut down, but I DON'T want to shut down the OS if I don't have to).
[20:17] <rcmaehl> Jon--: delete the log
[20:18] <Jon--> rcmaehl, where is the log stored
[20:18] <rcmaehl> Jon--: /var/logs
[20:18] <erUSUL> pizzas: just share the folder in windows then in ubuntu Places>Network>Windows Network
[20:18] <Somelauw> rcmaehl: total ram is 3928. So it is 3260 / 3928?
[20:18] <Jon--> rcmaehl, bash: cd: /var/logs: No such file or directory
[20:18] <five225225> hello?
[20:18] <Jon--> It's log ;)
[20:18] <rcmaehl> oh
[20:18] <lmontrieux> Jon--, it's /var/log
[20:18] <Somelauw> rcmaehl: I assume all that ram is installed. How can I check this.
[20:18] <rcmaehl> lol
[20:18] <Jon--> Haha
[20:18] <rcmaehl> Somelauw: lshw
[20:18] <five225225> Can i ask for wubi help here, there seems to be no channel for that?
[20:19] <xro> ok, so... does anybody knows what are the openssl and ldns version for ubuntu server 10.04?
[20:19] <Jon--> What is the name of the GUI binary for your power management then?
[20:19] <rcmaehl> Somelauw: sudo lshw
[20:19] <Jon--> I have no idea
[20:19] <Somelauw> rcmaehl: Should I pastebin all that info?
[20:19] <marcos> does anybody here use pommo ?
[20:19] <rcmaehl> Somelauw: yes
[20:19] <princej88> marcos: i have used it once
[20:20] <five225225> how can i get help installing ubuntu useing wubi?
[20:20] <princej88> marcos: what do you need?
[20:20] <Guest22714> princej88, do you know now to configure smtp on pommo ?
[20:20] <pizzas> erusul, I do not see the ubuntu when I am looking for it in windows, it is not an option in the network folder, I do not know where else to look
[20:20] <flea> am i alone with suffering poor java/javascript performance/reliability across various browsers using both sun- and icedtea ?  ..64bit
[20:21] <erUSUL> pizzas: if you want to share the folder from ubuntu then rifgt click on it and choose sharing options
[20:21] <princej88> Guest22714: i used 'Sendmail' on mail exchanger. i assume that's where you selected smtp?
[20:21] <erUSUL> flea: the java plugin does not handle javascript...
[20:21] <raido> Has anyone here noticed that in licud, since the last dbus update, the nm-applet does not function properly in the notification area applet?
[20:22] <princej88> Guest22714: what exactly is it saying when you are trying to configure?
[20:22] <flea> erUSUL, for script is it entirely responsible from the browser only?
[20:22] <Guest22714> princej88, but if I use sendmail my hosting company baned me ! That's why I would like to use smtp to send 200 pear hour
[20:22] <five225225> how would i make my computer dual boot windows and ubuntu?
[20:23] <erUSUL> flea: yes; each browser has its JS engine
[20:23] <rcmaehl>  five225225 install windows then ubuntu
[20:23] <erUSUL> !dualboot |  five225225
[20:23] <rcmaehl> five225225: the grub boot loader would then detect and add an option to boot windows
[20:23] <five225225> i tryed wubi, the grep folder was empty
[20:23] <Cem_Nome5> hi
[20:23] <Somelauw> rcmaehl: http://pastebin.com/Ev2tywDS
[20:24] <princej88> Guest22714: is the email address that you are usiing to send the emails out from hosted on the same server as pommo or somewhere else?
[20:24] <Somelauw> Does that contain the info you need so that the problem can be solved.
[20:24] <Somelauw> ?
[20:25] <sealance> hi, I'm having some issues on getting my wireless to work on a ubuntu laptop i have, is this the right channel for this? thanks :)
[20:25] <erUSUL> sealance: it is
[20:25] <jatayu> hey ... need help: got a dell 2007fp monitor.  need to configure it as my 2nd monitor.  help please.
[20:25] <eoin_> how do I install kernel headers in natty?
[20:25] <Guest22714> princej88, I'm trying to use smtp yahoo
[20:26] <BluesKaj> sealance, yes , there's a lot of wifi knowledge in the room , usually
[20:26] <erUSUL> eoin_: « sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) » further natty questions in #ubuntu+1
[20:26] <rcmaehl> Somelauw: hmm 4gb. Does memtest86+ say anything?
[20:26] <pizzas> erusul, ok, I rtclk and shared a folder and now the icon for that folder has the red and green arrows above it to the right. I do not see it on the windows side, though.
[20:26] <erUSUL> pizzas: do you have firewall in ubuntu ¿?
[20:27] <Somelauw> rcmaehl: Then I would need to reboot.
[20:27] <princej88> Guest22714: i am looking at the configuration page for smtp on pommo. It looks like yous hould be able to just fill in all the smtp information for the email address and it shoudl work
[20:27] <pizzas> erusul, not that I know of or set upon my own
[20:27] <sealance> hah thanks, well i've got this acer aspire 1410 with a IPC2220 chipset, wireless didnt work so I filed a ticket, they told me to use ndiswrapper, so I did that, but it doesent work
[20:27] <varsha_jk> hi, I removed a few kde packages, like games and IDEs, and my KDE DE also got removed automatically. Any idea I can get about why this could have happened?
[20:27] <Somelauw> rcmaehl: I have never ran it before. Is it easy to use?
[20:27] <Jon--> Is there a way to reset battery statistics in Ubuntu? I switched batteries and it's still reporting old capacity (I hibernated, didn't shut down, but I DON'T want to shut down the OS if I don't have to).
[20:27] <erUSUL> pizzas: :S
[20:27] <Whitor> Anyone with a thinkpad t510 get the embedded web cam working ?
[20:27] <erUSUL> !samba | pizzas
[20:27] <princej88> Guest22714: why don't you just change the mailing throttle values for Sendmail so you won't get banned?
[20:28] <rcmaehl> !memtest86 | Somelauw
[20:28] <rcmaehl> !memtest
[20:28] <lmontrieux> Whitor, yep, worked out of the box for me
[20:28] <rcmaehl> ><
[20:28] <daniel_> how do i stop my computer from locking up all the time i cant stand it its more annoying than vista im entering my password every like  mins
[20:28] <ubunt> s
[20:28] <Whitor> lmontrieux, what version? I'm on 10.04
[20:28] <lmontrieux> Whitor, 10.10
[20:28] <Whitor> thanks
[20:28] <lmontrieux> Whitor, haven't tried 10.04
[20:28] <eoin_> erUSUL: Thanks for the help.
[20:28] <Whitor> yeah... I've been putting off 10.10 ... heard mixed reviews
[20:29] <bob__> daniel: go to screensaver and uncheck the box
[20:29] <Guest22714> princej88, because the company leaves me to send 95 pear hour !
[20:29] <BluesKaj> sealance, which ubuntu version first of all ...NM should work right from the get go on 10.10  , my acer aspire did.
[20:29] <lmontrieux> Whitor, I have a T510i and no noticeable issue, if that can ease your mind :)
[20:29] <Whitor> lmontrieux, it does in fact. greatly. it is good to know
[20:29] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: http://www.pastebin.com/bjkZTiDb  <- how do I claim?
[20:29] <lmontrieux> Whitor, my pleasure
[20:30] <varsha_jk> daniel_: Uncheck the option of locking the screen when the screensaver is active from System-> Screensaver.
[20:30] <Jon--> Is there a way to reset battery statistics in Ubuntu? I switched batteries and it's still reporting old capacity (I hibernated, didn't shut down, but I DON'T want to shut down the OS if I don't have to).
[20:30] <sealance> blueskaj, i'm on 10.04LTS, 10.10's better?
[20:30] <princej88> Guest22714: you can still set the throttle values to send 95 per hour.
[20:30] <daniel_> bob__, ok now what how do i disable it completly i cant use my remote desktop if this keeps locking up and its not only the screen saver its whenever its idle or i close the lid
[20:30] <princej88> Guest22714: or would you still get banned if you were still using Sendmail and had it throttled down?
[20:30] <Somelauw> rcmaehl: But free -m didn't show problems and lcwp didn't find errors either. How should memtest find problems?
[20:31] <BluesKaj> sealance, I had to use wicd on 10.04 ..10.10 NM worked right off
[20:31] <bob__> daniel: sorry I dont know about remote desktop
[20:31] <rcmaehl> Somelauw: checks you memory for errors, and if it's not your memory it most be that your HDD is failin
[20:31] <rcmaehl> failing*
[20:31] <BluesKaj> sealance, try wicd , it works well
[20:31] <Guest22714> princej88, even if i send one with SMTP just testing I cant send it it says Error Sending Mail
[20:31] <varsha_jk> I removed a few kde packages and my KDE DE also got removed automatically. Any help please?
[20:31] <daniel_> ok i found out how thankyou you ubuntu tweek
[20:32] <Ddorda> hey guys, i iwhs to use a newer Python-BeautifulSoup than what Ubuntu has. how can i upgrade it?
[20:32] <lmontrieux> varsha_jk, just reinstall kubuntu-desktop, it should do the trick
[20:32] <sealance> blueskaj, hey thanks, i'll try wicd, i'll keep you posted :)
[20:32] <erUSUL> rcmaehl: dunno sorry
[20:32] <BluesKaj> sealance, cool :)
[20:32] <sealance> blueskaj, should i uninstall or disable ndiswrapper though?
[20:32] <varsha_jk> lmontrieux: actually, this is a strange thing to happen. I can reinstall KDE, but again it will install all the packages I don't need.
[20:32] <princej88> Guest22714: i am guessing that you are entering something wrong in the smtp settings? not sure. but what i would do is if sendmail is working, then I would just throttle it down to whatever the allowed limit is without getting banned
[20:33] <BluesKaj> sealance, yes, probly a good idea
[20:33] <pizzas> erusul, thanks for the link. Nothing is every easy with ubuntu. :(
[20:33] <varsha_jk> lmontrieux: I wanted to know how removing a few packages removed my DE. That wasn't supposed to happen.
[20:33] <sealance> blueskaj, willdo, thanks
[20:33] <lmontrieux> varsha_jk, kubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It installs a lot of packages, including some you don't need
[20:33] <xro> what is the way to have: unbound 1.4.9, openssl 1.0.0 and ldns 1.6.9 on ubuntu???  noway?
[20:34] <Guest22714> mmm princej88 I think I'll use throttle
[20:34] <Guest22714> :(
[20:34] <Guest22714> haha
[20:34] <Polah> How can I change MTU for my ethernet connection though command line?
[20:34] <lmontrieux> varsha_jk, it's just that you remove a package (maybe several) on which KDE depends
[20:34] <princej88> Guest22714: good luck. which host are you using? I want to make sure that I wont get banned as well. Hope you weren't using site5
[20:34] <lmontrieux> varsha_jk, if you pay close attention next time you remove packages, you'll notice a (possibly empty) list of packages that will also be removed for dependency reasons
[20:34] <erUSUL> Polah: use ifconfig
[20:35] <ruan> !info openssl | xro
[20:35] <ruan> xro: hmm. the latest versions might be in some ppa
[20:35] <Guest22714> princej88, my own hosting !

[20:36] <ruan> Onryo: how is it not working?
[20:36] <varsha_jk> lmontrieux: oh ok. May be I did. Thanks so much! :)

[20:37] <Onryo> ruan out of partition
[20:37] <Cem_Nome5> I have a Ubuntu 10.10 andI accidentally plugged off my computer*

[20:37] <Onryo> ruan its davidGuda and myself trying to figure out whats up.
[20:38] <sealance> blueskaj, hey so I looked at the wicd page, theres no direct download, and I only found a maverick version of wicd on the ubuntu repository, sorry but could u point me in the right direction in downloading the package? thanks
[20:38] <xro> ruan, i can compile openssl 1.0.0 and it works till i reboot... and i cannot compile ldns 1.6.9 --> http://dpaste.com/526406/
[20:38] <ranvijay> help with bootcript
[20:38] <princej88> Guest22714, the old community support forum still seems to be up. you might have lluck in there. the new support forum seems to be down
[20:38] <Onryo> drc we are not using the GPU on the Sandy Bridge. Ill look at the URL though.
[20:38] <Magizian> νώικοδορωδ νωτ ήχοδοπα νητ αρώτ

[20:40] <Onryo> drc will this bug affect a discreet graphics card too?
[20:40] <BluesKaj> sealance, checkout the package manager , it should be in the repos , just make sure all the available the repos are enabled , except the cdrom .
[20:40] <mmance> anyone here have an android with metropcs?
[20:40] <Onryo> erUSUL yeah this looks really interesting since it is GRUB on 10.10 with a 64 bit
[20:41] <RussellAlan> hey, i had ubuntu as my main install, then i resized partition and installed windows 7, how can i get back to ubuntu? do i need to reinstall grub
[20:41] <drc> Onryo: Far beyond my pay-grade...I'd ask there, they would probably know more than anybody here.

[20:44] <Wicked> hello all. How can i make evolution download the entire email so that when i goto read a mail it does not contact the email server and download it then.

[20:45] <Cem_Nome5> dcite
[20:45] <Cem_Nome5> I had java openned
[20:45] <Dcite> Cem_Nome5: Were you doing a system update at the time?
[20:46] <Cem_Nome5> I had a IRC
[20:46] <Cem_Nome5> yeah I always install updates
[20:46] <Dcite> ...
[20:46] <lmontrieux> Cem_Nome5, try sudo apt-get -f install
[20:46] <Cem_Nome5> what would it do?
[20:46] <Dcite> Cem_Nome5: That wouuld finish the installs
[20:46] <tonyaldo> anyone has any troubles syncing their ipod touch 4g syncing?
[20:47] <Dcite> Cem_Nome5: In effect, complete the interrupted update
[20:47] <lmontrieux> Cem_Nome5, try to fix the problem caused by the update being interruped
[20:47] <ayecee> tonyaldo: nope
[20:47] <Cem_Nome5> ./bin/sh: sudo: not found

[20:47] <tonyaldo> ayecee, :(
[20:47] <lmontrieux> Cem_Nome5, did you set a root password ?

[20:48] <Cem_Nome5> I yped help
[20:48] <Cem_Nome5> and a lot of commands appeared
[20:48] <Dcite> lmontrieux: Since you seem tohave it, I'll just drop out ^_^.
[20:48] <ayecee> tonyaldo: it's probably more helpful to describe the problem you're having, instead of asking if someone else has the same problem.
[20:48] <Cem_Nome5> . : [ alias break cd chdir...
[20:48] <Lordy> xro : you can upgraded with an ubuntu 10.10 cd
[20:48] <ali_> just, you are write
[20:48] <Lordy> xro: it's easily and safer
[20:48] <tonyaldo> ayecee, good point lol
[20:48] <lmontrieux> Dcite, sorry, didn't want to kick you out of the discussion
[20:49] <Dcite> lmontrieux: Don't worry I'm distracted to begin with
[20:49] <r_a_f> xro: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[20:49] <Cem_Nome5> i'll try again
[20:49] <Cem_Nome5> with the recovery mode
[20:49] <tonyaldo> well my ipod touch 4g won't sync with rhythmbox at all
[20:49] <Cem_Nome5> BusyBOx v1.15.3 (UBuntu 1:1.15.3-1ubuntu5) built-in shell (ash)
[20:50] <Cem_Nome5> enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands
[20:50] <Dcite> Cem_Nome5: Is that the same thing it's saying with the normal mode?
[20:50] <Cem_Nome5> idk
[20:50] <ayecee> tonyaldo: what happens when you try?
[20:50] <Cem_Nome5> I can put a less updated generic
[20:50] <Dcite> Cem_Nome5: Please check, if it is, you will need a liveCD to repair this since it might have interrupted a kernel update.
[20:50] <Cem_Nome5> damn
[20:50] <tonyaldo> ayecee, nothing at all =/ thats the whole problem
[20:50] <lduros> hello, I'm looking for a web crawler, that will be able to recursively go through the pages of one of my sites (static html pages), and give me a list of all the urls / page titles in the end. ON windows I have used Xenu Links but it is not available on ubuntu. Thanks!
[20:51] <ayecee> tonyaldo: what should happen instead of nothing?
[20:51] <Dcite> Cem_Nome5: It's not that bad! No data is lost, just.. incomplete core..
[20:51] <xro> r_a_f, no... that don't work... i'm still on 9.10
[20:51] <tonyaldo> ayecee, it should mount and show up in rhythmbox and allow you to import music
[20:51] <BluesKaj> sealance, you can download the wicd compressed file here : http://linux.softpedia.com/progDownload/Wicd-Download-40130.html
[20:51] <ayecee> tonyaldo: has it worked before, or is this the first time trying?
[20:51] <tonyaldo> ayecee, first time
[20:51] <Cem_Nome5> dcite so I'm not losing anything?
[20:52] <Cem_Nome5> I typed c
[20:52] <Cem_Nome5> and now I'm "grub"
[20:52] <Cem_Nome5> I wrote root
[20:52] <tonyaldo> ayecee, well I keep on unplugging it and plugging it back in but no success
[20:52] <rcmaehl> erUSUL: just figured out how to use modprobe and lspci -vv :D I now have 2 new tempature sensors available
[20:52] <Cem_Nome5> (hd0,msdos1): filesystem is ext2
[20:52] <Cem_Nome5> this is important?
[20:52] <Dcite> Cem_Nome5: Please first get a liveCD or liveUSB ready, you will need to to get back into the system and hopefully have it repair itself
[20:52] <Cem_Nome5> I think I have lost the CD lol
[20:52] <Guest27110> Does this channel support lubuntu?
[20:53] <bluefloyd> ping
[20:53] <lmontrieux> Cem_Nome5, just download and burn another one then :)
[20:53] <Dcite> Cem_Nome5: .... ext2? Which was the original ubuntu installed on this? ext2 isn't a journaling system yet..
[20:53] <Cem_Nome5> idk
[20:53] <Cem_Nome5> i know nothing about Linux
[20:53] <Cem_Nome5> i installed it like in january
[20:53] <princej88> Guest27110: i believe lubuntu has its own channel
[20:53] <Dcite> lmontrieux Cem_Nome5 : I was thinking that he can chroot back into the drive after booting a liveCD to finish the process.
[20:54] <Onryo> my hamster has just filled her pouches all full..
[20:54] <Cem_Nome5> Dcite I tried a different generic here
[20:54] <Onryo> she is considerably larger stuffed!
[20:54] <lmontrieux> Dcite, yes, that's what I would do
[20:54] <ayecee> tonyaldo: it seems that special software is needed. At least, that's what they describe here: http://marcansoft.com/blog/iphonelinux/usbmuxd/
[20:54] <Dcite> Cem_Nome5: Did you download that january one?
[20:54] <Onryo> Ohhh sry wrong chat ..
[20:54] <Cem_Nome5> apnow i'm initramfs
[20:54] <sealance> blueskaj, hey thanks, just downloaded is it a package or a source? in other words (and sorry for this simplicity, I'm very new at linux), once I have that on a usb and on my ubuntu machina what do I need to do in order to install it?
[20:54] <Cem_Nome5> Gave up waiting for root device: cmmom problems
[20:54] <ayecee> tonyaldo: maybe there's an ubuntu package for it, i don't know
[20:54] <lmontrieux> Dcite, Cem_Nome5 although there's a non-zero risk that the data partition has been damaged too
[20:54] <r_a_f> xro: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades
[20:54] <Cem_Nome5> yes dcite
[20:55] <tonyaldo> ayecee, hmmmm thanks I'll try it out
[20:55] <Cem_Nome5> I had some problems
[20:55] <Cem_Nome5> after I bought a better memory for my computer
[20:55] <Cem_Nome5> I bought a 2gb one
[20:55] <Cem_Nome5> now it was faster
[20:55] <Dcite> lmontrieux Cem_Nome5 So it's probably running 10.10 .. assuming that ext2 is just a mis-detection a livecd should fix it.. I am surposed the older kernels aren't working.. was grub interrpted too?
[20:55] <Guest27110> princej88, Any idea if it's on freenode?
[20:55] <Cem_Nome5> hm i think no dcite
[20:55] <BluesKaj> !gz | sealance
[20:56] <tonyaldo> ayecee, seems usbmuxd is installed hmmmm
[20:56] <Cem_Nome5> ALERT! -big link doest not exist. Dropping to a shell"
[20:56] <Dcite> Cem_Nome5: Please try to boot again, choose the Ubuntu entry just above memtest86.. or which ever generic is on the bottom
[20:56] <Cem_Nome5> ALERT! -big link doest not exist. Dropping to a shell!*
[20:56] <Cem_Nome5> dcite I did it
[20:57] <ayecee> tonyaldo: how about libimobiledevice?
[20:57] <Cem_Nome5> it has with console and without console
[20:57] <ayecee> or maybe libgpod
[20:57] <Cem_Nome5> i did the without console
[20:57] <Cem_Nome5> the bottom one is with serial console 115200
[20:57] <tonyaldo> ayecee, E: Unable to locate package libmobiledevice
[20:57] <xro> r_a_f, the update manager don't propose me to install a new version and i set normal releases in update tab...
[20:57] <ayecee> tonyaldo: what version of ubuntu?
[20:57] <Dcite> Cem_Nome5: I.. wasn't expecting that....
[20:58] <tonyaldo> 10.10
[20:58] <ayecee> tonyaldo: what version of iOS on the ipod?
[20:58] <Dcite> Cem_Nome5: Please try to get a linux cd.. ANY..
[20:58] <tonyaldo> ayecee, 4.2.1
[20:58] <RussellAlan> when trying to do the grub2 install from ubuntu live session i get this...
[20:58] <RussellAlan> http://paste.ubuntu.com/586594/
[20:59] <Dcite> *poof* afk
[20:59] <r_a_f> xro:  maybe apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -before this dist upgrade?
[20:59] <sealance> blueskaj, thanks :) i'll read through that and tell you how it worked
[20:59] <xro> r_a_f, already done...
[20:59] <genii-around> RussellAlan: Just what it says. You're tying to install onto a partition instead of the mbr
[20:59] <tonyaldo> ayecee, dmesg doesn't even recognize it hmph
[21:00] <RussellAlan> genii-around: so what do i need to do?
[21:00] <Polah> I can't seem to transfer files over FTP using any transfer type that are over ~400B. Anything under that I can send but can't send anything that's bigger than that. Any help?
[21:00] <bteres> hi. i installed 10.10 on my acer ao751h netbook and the touchpad scrolling worked. then i plugged in a logitech external keyboard and mouse and the scrolling has not worked since then. does anyone know why?
[21:00] <genii-around> RussellAlan: Put like sda instead of sda1
[21:00] <RussellAlan> gotcha...
[21:00] <ayecee> tonyaldo: that's because it doesn't actually speak the regular usb protocol, surprisingly
[21:00] <BluesKaj> sealance, I'll be here for another hr or so
[21:00] <tonyaldo> ayecee, *facepalm*
[21:00] <ayecee> tonyaldo: looks like the package is called libimobiledevice0, is that installed?
[21:00] <tonyaldo> ayecee, let me check
[21:01] <xro> r_a_f, sudo update-manager -d
[21:01] <RussellAlan> genii-around:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/586597/
[21:01] <r_a_f> xro: so... maybe segond way from that site -> Upgrading Using the Alternate CD/DVD ?
[21:01] <tonyaldo> ayecee, E: Unable to locate package libmobiledevice0
[21:02] <sealance> blueskaj, thanks, hopefully it won't take that long, i'm copying the file to my usb now
[21:02] <xro> r_a_f, sudo update-manager -d, works... i don't know why the update manager didn't look for the new version by itself...
[21:02] <ayecee> tonyaldo: misspelled
[21:02] <ayecee> try again
[21:02] <Datz> Hi, is there any indication of what day 11.04 will be released? It's usually mid-month, and not right at the start?
[21:02] <genii-around> RussellAlan: I'm not familiar with "Flexnet"
[21:02] <ayecee> Datz: correct
[21:02] <Dcite> Datz: The estimated date stated is April  28
[21:02] <BluesKaj> Datz, april 28th
[21:02] <xro> thanks
[21:02] <Jon--> I r nuked gnome-battery-manager (gnome-panel item for battery). I can't find it anywhere. Help!?
[21:02] <RussellAlan> ill give it a reboot and see what happens
[21:02] <Datz> Thanks guys
[21:03] <Datz> guess I'll wait a bit longer then :P (I know there are alphas)
[21:03] <r_a_f> xro: I don't know - maybe something with repo isn't ok?
[21:04] <tonyaldo> ayecee, libimobiledevice1 is already the newest version.
[21:04] <tonyaldo> strange
[21:04] <ayecee> tonyaldo: what version do you have?
[21:04] <yaaar> Hi everybody. I have a 32-bit 10.04.02 LTS server that's locking up on me regularly. I get a whole bunch of stack traces in the logs like these: http://pastebin.com/jjQsWb0t ...always seems to be rsync, which makes me think it's related to a backup operation (to a local BackupPC server) ...any idea what might be wrong?
[21:05] <guntbert> yaaar: if you don't get good answers here ask in #ubuntu-server
[21:05] <tonyaldo> ayecee, 1.0.1-1
[21:05] <Datz> yaaar: might try #ubuntu-server too
[21:06] <Jon--> gnome-power-manager is not on my panel and it is not in the list either
[21:06] <Jon--> please help?
[21:06] <tonyaldo> ayecee, meh I'll figure a way around it
[21:06] <ayecee> tonyaldo: okay, looks like the current version on the imobiledevice homepage is 1.0.6. I've seen mention of installing a PPA release of it.
[21:06] <bluefloyd> ping
[21:06] <tonyaldo> ayecee, o0o ok
[21:07] <bluefloyd> How can I tell what Bluetooth stack is being used?
[21:07] <Jon--> gnome-power-manager is not on my panel and it is not in the list either.  Please help?
[21:07] <ayecee> tonyaldo: looks like it's here: https://launchpad.net/~pmcenery/+archive/ppa
[21:07] <ayecee> tonyaldo: and that he has version up to 1.0.4, still better than 1.0.1 I guess
[21:08] <tonyaldo> ayecee, yea worth a shot, thanks :)
[21:09] <RussellAlan> so I did the grub reinstall, but it doesnt have windows listed in there

[21:10] <SwedeMike> rcconf: april 2012
[21:11] <rcconf> ty
[21:11] <ayecee> the next LTS? won't that be october?
[21:11] <RussellAlan> how can i add my windows7 partition to the grub list?
[21:12] <sealance> blueskaj, hey, I'm sorry but I'm pretty stuck now, so I copied that tar.gz, extracted it according to that page you forwarded to me, and so I clicked on "install" and all I see is a text editor, I'm pretty lost, mind pointing me out how to install things like this? thank you so much though :)
[21:12] <tonyaldo> ayecee, worked :)
[21:12] <ayecee> woohoo
[21:12] <tonyaldo> like a boss
[21:12] <coz_> ayecee,  I dont think this yeare is LTS
[21:13] <coz_> year
[21:13] <brucelee> another newbie question :( why does my internet work in gnome and not in kde? I use a netgear wireless router
[21:13] <waldir> hi there. when I do the ls command, some directories appear with a green background (highlighting), while others show up in light blue without any background. what does this mean?
[21:13] <coz_> brucelee,  mm interesting.. try asking in either #kubuntu or #kde
[21:14] <Whitor> Hi. I've got an ubuntu server 10.04 running on one subnet, I can ping it from a remote subnet, but I can't connect to any of its services (well  ssh and port 80 at least)... any ideas ?
[21:14] <rcconf> ayecee: it's every 2 years like someone told to me
[21:14] <rcconf> if 10.04 is LTS..
[21:14] <ayecee> rcconf: 1.5 years
[21:14] <ayecee> from what i've heard
[21:14] <brucelee> I assumed they used the same network drivers - I will ask in there thnx
[21:15] <elijah> I am using Chrome and I have Java installed (it works with FF) and I get a "You do not have Java installed or enabled. You can learn more about enabling Java, or go back and try the standard upload page." message on this page - http://upload.youtube.com/my_videos_upload?restrict=java
[21:15] <BluesKaj> sealance, open a terminal , tar -xvzf filname.tar.gz ..this will create a folder in your /home/user and lookin that folder instructions , but if you extracted it already then theat folder should already be there
[21:15] <Whitor> it seems like it is intelligently denying application requests from a different subnet, while allowing all the tcp transport stuff to work properly
[21:16] <zamba> i have a program that won't die.. i've tried doing kill -9 on it, even as root.. but it won't go away
[21:16] <zamba> any suggestions?
[21:17] <ayecee> zamba: reboot
[21:17] <sloopy> os65k, but you are here...
[21:17] <ayecee> zamba: you've got a zombie :)
[21:17] <rcconf> zamba: maybe it's a service.
[21:17] <RussellAlan> can anyone help me configure grub2 so i can dual boot my win7?
[21:17] <zamba> rcconf: nope
[21:17] <zamba> rcconf: it's rtorrent
[21:17] <zamba> and it died because a sshfs mount went down
[21:17] <rcconf> zamba: sudo killall rtorrent
[21:17] <iceroot> zamba: pstree and see the main-process of the zombie
[21:18] <ayecee> zamba: can't kill it, it's in an uninterruptible sleep because it died doing disk io.
[21:18] <ayecee> zamba: reboot is the only way to clear it
[21:18] <rcconf> lolz
[21:19] <os65k> @sloopy: uh-huh, riiiight. :-D

[21:19] <LarsTorben> 10 04, 10.10 or 11.04

[21:22] <Polah> To install 10.10 64-bit will I have to wipe and install over my current 32-bit?
[21:23] <Logan_> !ot | davidnjohnson
[21:23] <LarsTorben> can i set then it up in to an virtual box
[21:23] <LarsTorben> and save it ??
[21:23] <tjkent> yes
[21:23] <ayecee> Polah: it would be best to do that
[21:23] <LarsTorben> yes ??
[21:23] <bodai> how is it possible to hide grub menu?
[21:23] <tjkent> except 64-bit maybe a little difficult
[21:23] <louigi> hey guys! suddenly flash players on youtube and other sites started playing through onboard soundcard and not usb and not show up in volume preferences. I am on Ubuntu 10.04

[21:28] <JKeegan> Hi, my system won't boot into the OS. It just seems to get to grub & restart immediately. I currently have it booted off of a live cd. Can anyone help me out?
[21:29] <SupeR_NovA> rcconf, not exactly there are how to fix this problem
[21:29] <SwedeMike> tjkent: upgrade to 10.10 instead of you need 2.6.34 or later, then you don't have to handle all the trouble that comes with custom kernel.
[21:29] <rcconf> bodai: sudo nano /etc/default/grub
[21:29] <ExSaint> having issues with a dell dimention 3000 intel pro 100 wont connect-wired anyone.....
[21:29] <iceroot> tjkent: seems like you dont have a 3d vga driver installed, because its build for your old kernel
[21:29] <tjkent> I was able to get compiz to work before
[21:30] <BluesKaj> JKeegan, dell laptop ?
[21:30] <tjkent> or can someone tell me how I can get my temps
[21:30] <rcconf> bodai: are you still there
[21:30] <bodai> yes
[21:30] <JKeegan> BluesKaj: No, desktop
[21:30] <SwedeMike> tjkent: I just did. upgrade to 10.10, you'll get 2.6.35 kernel without the hassle.
[21:30] <bodai> the timeout is 0

[21:31] <tjkent> ok

[21:31] <rcconf> bodai: bodai try to comment it out using #GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0

[21:34] <BajK> it seems canonical developers are incapable of adapting their stipid ubuntu things (install extra screen savers or crash manager) to the high KDE standards
[21:34] <Craig`> hey guys, i'm wanting to have dual screen, i'm wanting to have a monitor and hdtv, i'm wanting to know if this is possible (i assume so) and if so i'd like to watch movies fullscreen on the tv whilst doing other things on the monitor - is this possible? (could i also have two sound cables? one just for movies (the tv) and the other for whatever is on the other screen?)
[21:34] <rcconf> bodai: I think it's just GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
[21:34] <rcconf> not sure :(
[21:34] <ubuntu> I'm experiencing installation failure for 10.10 using an iso burned to a disk.  disk has been reburned 3x at low speeds.  I have formatted the drive.  still no go.  any suggestions?
[21:34] <Craig`> sounds more like having two comps but ofc i want to do this with just one comp
[21:34] <BajK> Craig`: that is possible, indeed
[21:34] <BajK> I have two monitors running on my pc
[21:35] <Craig`> BajK: awesome
[21:35] <bodai> thank you so much
[21:35] <bodai> have a nice day

[21:35] <popcornman> hey guys im having some wierd booting problems
[21:35] <popcornman> its for backtrack but it was built around intrepid
[21:35] <louigi> ayecee, actually rebooting helped with usb card plugged in! Thank you!
[21:35] <Craig`> i had a problem with my hdmi -> dvi cable but googling showed that otherns had the problem too
[21:35] <rcconf> bodai: dont forget to update grub.
[21:35] <popcornman> hey guys im having some wierd booting problems
[21:35] <Craig`> so i'm trying out a vga->dvi cable and seeing if that cuts off any of the screen
[21:35] <popcornman> its for backtrack but it was built around intrepid
[21:35] <thedead91> hi there :) does anyone knows something about smstools3?
[21:36] <BajK> Craig`: don't know, I just had an issue (which was related to the monitor, not ubuntu) that the second monitor wasnt recognized, now I have one attached usinb DVI, the other VGA but I dont have HDMI
[21:36] <guntbert> !backtrack | popcornman
[21:36] <Craig`> BajK: were you saying that it was possible for two sound cables too? the tv speakers/my desktop speakrs
[21:36] <BajK> Craig`: my sound card has two outputs
[21:36] <Craig`> just ofc if others are watching film on tv i dont want them hearing what i'm doing
[21:36] <BajK> the green default one and the black for headphones
[21:36] <BajK> but should be possible using them for atdditional speakers
[21:36] <BajK> ah
[21:36] <BajK> eh
[21:37] <BajK> should be possible using PulseAudio
[21:37] <BajK> you can specify which sound source is played on which device
[21:37] <Craig`> righto.
[21:37] <BajK> for example your media player on the headphones i.e. the speakers in your other room
[21:37] <BajK> and the other system sounds on your speakers right next to the pc
[21:37] <Craig`> oh good so i'll just say movie player is by default tv speakrs
[21:37] <BajK> but I dont have PulseAudio installed since if f***s up my USB headset *g* have a look at #pulseaudio
[21:38] <maco> BajK: please don't swear, even obfuscated
[21:38] <Craig`> yeah well this won't be setup for a while, i'll head over there when i've got my cable and sound, cheers.
[21:38] <BajK> maco: sorry, but I'm not in a good mood if it's about PulseAudio^^
[21:38] <rcconf> How can I select text in terminal using ONLY the keyboard?
[21:39] <eas> cat file | xsel --clipboard --input
[21:39] <Craig`> rcconf: google
[21:39] <Craig`> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1536757/selecting-text-in-terminal-without-using-the-mouse
[21:39] <BluesKaj> maco, BajK , if possible get an amp with a dac input and use the spdif output to it , solves alot of audio probs
[21:39] <BajK> BluesKaj: doesnt change that PulseAudio+KDE is not a good mixture
[21:40] <rcconf> Craig`: dont say ppl to google without providing any help. thanks.
[21:40] <BluesKaj> pulseaudio is for pci soundcards , onboards suffer with PA
[21:40] <rcconf> we all know google.
[21:40] <BajK> BluesKaj: hmm, it's just that it doesnt recognize my USB headphones..
[21:40] <rcconf> but we are here for some reason
[21:40] <eitri> Hi. Does anyone know how I can install usb keyboard on a windows partition through ubuntu live and maybe even fix the windows partition (it's currently crashing hard)?

[21:41] <rcconf> Craig`: sorry I didnt see it thanks
[21:41] <rcconf> you should have used one line ;)

[21:51] <metasyntax> Just upgraded to 10.10 yesterday; having trouble compiling Rhythmbox 0.13.3 due to a missing libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.la file, is there any way to work around this?
[21:52] <orangejuicecup> black people
[21:52] <rcconf> !ot | orangejuicecup
[21:52] <Aginor> metasyntax, have you installed the dev package?
[21:52] <metasyntax> Aginor: Yeah, but the .la files have been removed from that package it seems.
[21:53] <Aginor> metasyntax, what is the error you're getting, and why do you need to link it against a static library?
[21:54] <metasyntax> Aginor: http://paste.lisp.org/display/120972 -- Just compiling Rhythmbox 0.13.3 from their release tarball.
[21:56] <Aginor> metasyntax, that looks "interesting". What's your configure flags?
[21:56] <Heller_Barde> is there someone with experience with exotic installation situations
[21:56] <metasyntax> Aginor: Just --prefix=/opt/rhythmbox
[21:56] <MeanEYE> A bit unrelated question. Does Empathy supports Skype protocol?!
[21:57] <Aginor> MeanEYE, unlikely, skype is proprietary
[21:58] <orangejuicecup> black people are nice
[21:58] <orangejuicecup> all people, all colors
[21:58] <orangejuicecup> are nice
[21:58] <Polah> When I reinstall Ubuntu; how can I set my second hard drive with data on it to be accessible to the new users?
[21:58] <smw> MeanEYE, nothing supports skype
[21:58] <orangejuicecup> except purple
[21:58] <MeanEYE> Aginor: I thought so but saw some flyer about Empathy being a replacement for Skype. Even though Skype announced OSS client I still think they will make a proprietary library and make UI around it.

[21:59] <sysRPL> has anyone here gotten 1080p video playback to work on ubuntu using hardware accellerated vdpau? i followed some steps to setup vdpau accelleration on 10.10, but when i play a 1080p mkv on vlc, it's too damn slow ... is there a way to check if vdpau through my hardware is actually being used?
[21:59] <erUSUL> !fstab | Polah
[21:59] <Aginor> metasyntax, do you have libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev installed?
[21:59] <ActionParsnip> Polah: when you install, specify the partition as a mount point but NOT be formatted
[22:00] <sysRPL> i've gotten mplayer to run with vdpau and 1080p videos play smooth
[22:00] <qwp> hello why does ubuntu recognize printers as from a different brand/manufacturer yet the driver seems to perfectly work?
[22:00] <sysRPL> but with vlc they still play like crap
[22:00] <ActionParsnip> sysRPL: tried a different player? also what video chip are you using?
[22:00] <Polah> ActionParsnip: Won't any files owned by root or my user account on this installation be inaccessible on the new installation?
[22:00] <sysRPL> ActionParsnip: atom dual core 1.8ghz, nvidia ion2
[22:00] <ActionParsnip> sysRPL: because mplayer is the daddy :)
[22:00] <sysRPL> ActionParsnip: it's a new nettop
[22:00] <qwp> do two different vendors develop the exact same hardware api *by chance* and savy driver programmers discovered that?
[22:00] <Aginor> MeanEYE, from what I know, which is admittedly outdated, empathy is a "real" sip phone and does not rely on a proprietary protocol, but rather uses the standards surrounding ip-telephony
[22:01] <sysRPL> i don't see any controls in mplayer, otherwize i'd use it
[22:01] <BluesKaj> sysRPL, which player are you using , and make sure you ubuntu-restricted-extras installed for ffmpeg
[22:01] <drc> sysRPL: You might get better results asking on #videolan
[22:01] <metasyntax> Aginor: Yup, but the binary package doesn't include the .la files anymore so it seems; I also found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtkglextmm/+bug/662572
[22:01] <MeanEYE> Aginor: that's the same thing I was thinking. Ok, thanks for your help and confirmation :D
[22:01] <sysRPL> i believe i have ffmpeg already installed
[22:01] <ActionParsnip> sysRPL: use gnome-mplayer then, its a nice gtk gui for mplayer
[22:01] <metasyntax> Just wondered if there was a way around it other than installing gdk-pixbuf myself. :-)
[22:01] <Aginor> MeanEYE, I might be wrong, I haven't looked at softphones for ages, so what I know might be outdated
[22:01] <BluesKaj> !who | sysRPL
[22:02] <sysRPL> ubottu: okay
[22:02] <Polah> Is Firefox 4 supported on 10.10? Or will it be on 11.04. Natively, I mean
[22:02] <sysRPL> ActionParsnip: i don't see any controls in mplayer, otherwise i'd use it
[22:02] <Miri28> Hello, anyone here knows some about htaccess ? need help..
[22:02] <rcconf> Polah: in 11.04 yes.
[22:02] <ActionParsnip> Polah: its default in natty

[22:03] <MeanEYE> Aginor: Skype is updated once in a decade so you can't be too wrong :)

[22:05] <Aginor> metasyntax, indeed, but it shouldn't stop you from compiling the software unless they are doing something "interesting" in their build scripts
[22:05] <manous> ActionParsnip: thank you
[22:06] <Aginor> metasyntax, I won't be able to help you with that though, I can't get a duplicate build environment set up
[22:06] <rrasyrogenees_> ty... =D
[22:07] <metasyntax> Aginor: I reckon it's because they're building a .la using -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 but I don't know too much about how libtool works... I think I'll just install gdk-pixbuf myself into /usr/local and try using that.
[22:07] <Miri28> celthunder: I am using CMS to manage all of my domains, now all domains are pointed to the same folder, now the problem is that the domains not working without the www extension. I've contact support and they told me I should placed a 301 redirection in the htaccess file. I've found some examples over the internet but they are not working coz I have more than one domain to handle. so I need to create some redirection rule that will applied to all domains

[22:14] <Schala> I think Josh was right, it is menu.lst
[22:14] <josh_ucf> glutton: what do you mean, the iso didn't burn correctly?
[22:15] <josh_ucf> glutton: or is it trying to find a FS on the CD
[22:15] <glutton> josh_ucf: 2 and *no*, i did use the alternate cd, another version, or from usb. cannot remember really. yes, check the cd first, there is a option for this
[22:15] <vAd0r> Linux redalert 2.6.32-29-generic
[22:15] <ActionParsnip> vAd0r: ALL the output please
[22:15] <Mathuin> I have recently enabled two-factor authentication on my Google account.  Now Empathy no longer works with Google Talk.  Is there a workaround for this?
[22:16] <mrdeb> is there a way to split a terminal application into four windows
[22:16] <glutton> josh_ucf: i'm not really sure what the reason is. i *think* it's an error in some versions in combination with some older hardware. but maybe it really was the CD
[22:16] <josh_ucf> glutton: oh ok, it could be my setting. i had to change the BIOS to boot from CD, because it was just going straight to windows every time
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> vAd0r: you are trying to run a 32bit app and do not have the 32bit version of libcrypto.so.0.9.8 in /usr/lib32   so it is using the 64bit one which won't work.
[22:17] <vAd0r> Linux redalert 2.6.32-29-generic #57-Ubuntu SMP Sun Jan 30 06:01:15 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[22:18] <vAd0r> i copied some files over to it
[22:18] <vAd0r> from another linux dist to the /usr/lib
[22:18] <vAd0r> and bam screwed
[22:18] <vAd0r> no ssh or nothing
[22:18] <glutton> josh_ucf: i think i downloaded som other ISO . because, on 2nd thought, the 'cd selfcheck option' required the CD to boot, which it didn't :]]
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> vAd0r: you can grab the deb files from packages.ubuntu.com   extract them and put the file in /usr/lib32
[22:18] <RussellAlan> hey someone help me with a biz name for rooting and servicing android phones
[22:18] <RussellAlan> something better then Russell's Rooting Resources
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> vAd0r: mixing linux distributions files is not advised
[22:19] <vAd0r> can i do it w/ yum?
[22:19] <vAd0r> i didnt know it would screw it up
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> vAd0r: you'll need to do it manually as your OS will only pull down 64bit files
[22:19] <dannyd> hi all, how do i view all the computers connected to the network from the command line?
[22:19] <vAd0r> ok
[22:20] <vAd0r> im on that site which one do i download
[22:20] <glutton> dannyd: *all* computers are connected via the network. how do you think, you can view my computer?
[22:21] <glutton> dannyd: nmap is the most general option, specifying a network address range and some port(s) to try. this still is not 'seeing'
[22:21] <dannyd> I want to see the name of my mobile phone, that is connected to the same hub as my computer..how can i do that?
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> vAd0r: the one which provides the file libcrypto.so.0.9.8. You can find out with:  dpkg -S libcrypto.so
[22:21] <josh_ucf> glutton: thx, ill try a old distro disc i got, and see if i have better luck
[22:21] <Mathuin> Okay, I checked the forums, and there's nothing useful there.
[22:22] <dannyd> glutton :I want to see the hostname of the device...if i dont know the ip address
[22:22] <glutton> dannyd: in case of windows/cifs shares, you need a windns domain browse service in the network
[22:23] <Mathuin> Okay, made it work.  Don't ask how. :-P
[22:23] <glutton> dannyd: or the 'workgroup' mode. smbclient can give you some info if you know a workgroup name for example
[22:23] <dannyd> im using crunchbang now....when i was using ubuntu, i distinctly remember there being a network button in nautilus, dont seem to be able to find it in thunar?
[22:23] <glutton> dannyd: well, nautilus is not exactly the command line :)
[22:23] <Heller_Barde> who has experience with exotic installation situations (involving an existing LVM)?
[22:24] <glutton> dannyd: in other news, my ubuntus here *do* have Places->Network
[22:24] <dannyd> ok, but sine there was no nautilus...i was thinking if there was a simple command to do discovery....it might have been an easier answer :)
[22:25] <Schala> sorry, what was that grub settings file in /etc again?
[22:25] <dannyd> glutton : thunar thunar thunar...please..
[22:26] <glutton> dannyd: i don't even remember what thunar is atm :)
[22:26] <dannyd> i know its got to be in there somewhere :(
[22:26] <drc> !crunchbang | dannyd
[22:26] <dannyd> glutton : stop being mean
[22:27] <glutton> dannyd: i'm not mean, i'm ignorant :)
[22:27] <dannyd> ok i am using xubuntu
[22:27] <drc> dannyd: Right!
[22:27] <drc> dannyd: The try /j #xubuntu
[22:27] <Schala> what's the grub settings file again? I have no menu.lst like the FAQ says
[22:29] <Lars_G> Question, what is the "best" or stabblest ppa for xfce 4.8 (for 10.10) out there?
[22:29] <strigoi66> Schala:use whereis grub in terminal for listing
[22:29] <Schala> ok
[22:30] <Toph> Schala,,, check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2
[22:32] <Schala> ah I see
[22:32] <Schala> menu.lst is legacy config
[22:34] <ajrt> i installed ubuntu 10.10 from a usb key to a new pc with an empty 3 TB hd. when it booted for the first time i got "error: file not found" and then the grub rescue prompt.
[22:34] <Gump> hey, #ubuntu, i may have a problem. my computer was unplugged accidentally, and now ubuntu won't boot. it says mounting of /dev failed or something. i booted to windows on the same disk fine though. any way i can run fsck or something on an ext3 filesystem from windows?
[22:34] <Dylan-sama> i have question concerning the iso versions...
[22:35] <Dylan-sama> is ubuntu-10.04.2-dvd-amd64.iso a desktop only iso? or does it also include the LTS version with all additional packages?
[22:35] <ActionParsnip> Dylan-sama: it is the LTS version
[22:35] <Gump> when i downloaded it it was lts
[22:35] <Dylan-sama> ok cool
[22:35] <rcconf> Dylan-sama: 10.04 is LTS.
[22:35] <ActionParsnip> Dylan-sama: the DVD also has some extra apps as well as extra languagepacks
[22:35] <Dylan-sama> already got the 700mb one, but then i noticed it around
[22:35] <Dylan-sama> thanks for the info :)
[22:36] <Gump> so, guys, any idea what to do? corrupt ext3 filesystem, but windows is working fine on the same disk. what's the next step?
[22:36] <obiwahn> Gump: boof of a cd and fix the mbr
[22:36] <obiwahn> look what grub and mbr is
[22:36] <Gump> damnit. i was afraid you were gonna say that. don't have a boot disk
[22:36] <ActionParsnip> Gump: boot to liveCD and fsck your partition.The sudden power off may have garbaged your system and/or data
[22:36]  * Gump le sigh
[22:36] <Gump> k thanks
[22:36] <`Knight`> Hey guys. I made a Linux test for my students at my campus, but I need someone to test the test for me first before I give it to my students to see if it's good questions... anyone want to take the test?
[22:37] <ActionParsnip> `Knight`: sure
[22:38] <obiwahn> and if it is really the disk tehn try fsck from the boot disk and or chroot into the sstem .... bla
[22:38] <arand> ajrt: Either reinstall after confirming the usb image is not damaged, or boot the usb mount the root fs and reinstall grub, and hope that it was only grub that was messed up
[22:40] <topher> I have 4 NICs. Is it possible to set up 3 of them with 3 different IP addresses going through the same gateway?
[22:41] <benjamin2> hi
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> stupid compiz crash :(
[22:41] <raido> topher: as long as they are on the same subnet
[22:41] <Acid190> ActionParsnip: compiz crash?
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> Acid190: yeah compiz is a bit unstable here
[22:42] <Acid190> ActionParsnip: on your machine or in general?
[22:42] <topher> raido: is there a tutorial that explains it? When i set up the default gateway, I can still only connect to the first interface on the routing table.
[22:42] <topher> and no others
[22:42] <ActionParsnip> Acid190: just on here, running natty
[22:42] <Acid190> ah
[22:43] <guampa> ActionParsnip: is Natty running Unity too?
[22:44] <isotek> anyone have any experience with file recovery on ext4 ?
[22:44] <Jordan_U> !anyone | isotek
[22:44] <mrdeb> yeah. it's called backing up to a fat32 external drive
[22:44] <wng> When setting up a local mirror for a PXE install, can I use the alternate CD to provide the files or do I need to use the full DVD?
[22:44] <vAd0r> what do i need to do to allow me to connect w/ winscp
[22:44] <guampa> isotek: afaik the same tools for ext2 recovery apply to ext4
[22:44] <isotek> guampa: they do not.
[22:45] <mrdeb> dose anyone konw why a wireless joystick would act like a mouse and how to chagne this?
[22:45] <wng> vAd0r: winscp, thats a secure copy program? You probably just need to be running sshd
[22:46] <isotek> mrdeb: its a HID, the same as a mouse, its all up to the application taking input to differentiate.
[22:46] <yaaar> I have a 32-bit 10.04.02 LTS server that's locking up on me regularly. I get a whole bunch of stack traces in the logs like these: http://pastebin.com/jjQsWb0t ...always seems to be rsync, which makes me think it's related to a backup operation (to a local BackupPC server) ...any idea what might be wrong?
[22:46] <vAd0r> got it thx
[22:46] <raido> topher: what is your goal
[22:46] <dsc6177> Hello! Anyone knows if is there a support for Compiz Fusion in xserver-xorg-video-radeo driver with Radeon HD 5670 card?
[22:46] <pstewart> yaaar: have you run a memtest? could be a bad stick of ram
[22:47] <Jordan_U> isotek: What are you trying to recover from?
[22:47] <wng> yaaar: install the 'mcelog' package and keep an eye on /var/log/mcelog
[22:47] <topher> raido: I have 3 websites on my Ubuntu Server 10.04 and I want a different domain to go to each one. My server has multiple nics, so I was going to configure three of them with a diffferent IP
[22:48] <raido> topher: ok, thats easy, these are static IPs from your ISP all on the same subnet right?
[22:48] <Dylan-sama> nother ISO question...so if that previous dvd iso was the LTS version...what is in this one ?
[22:48] <Dylan-sama> ubuntu-10.10-dvd-amd64.iso
[22:48] <topher> raido: yes
[22:49] <isotek> Jordan_U: three nights ago i installed two 1tb drives partitioned them both the exact same and then formated them ext4, i then proceded to copy around 400gb of data to one of the disks. the next day i rebooted the machine both disks were blank.
[22:49] <Aginor> topher, you don't need to have separate ip addresses for every domain unless you want to have reverse resolving working nicely. Virtual hosting in apache is quite easy
[22:49] <RussellAlan> i still can't get my gnome toolbar recovered?
[22:49] <RussellAlan> can anyone help?
[22:49] <RussellAlan> should i go into kde and remove gnome and reinstall?
[22:49] <raido> then all you have to do is assign the ips to the interfaces in the /etc/network/interfaces file. Hang on Ill find you a link...
[22:50] <topher> Aginor: raido: the reason i wanted to configure multiple NICs was I figured it would use less bandwidth for each one, rather than all the bandwidth going to only one NIC with a single IP ? No?
[22:50] <isotek> Jordan_U: and its not that i cant get the data back, at least for the most part however i want to know what happened.
[22:51] <anderson_> hi there
[22:51] <Aginor> topher, and would these three nics go into the same switch?
[22:51] <Aginor> topher, or eventually use the same uplink?
[22:52] <topher> Aginor they are connected to the same router

[22:52] <UcefKH> hi
[22:52] <UcefKH> U & bu &tu
[22:52] <UcefKH> ubuntu
[22:52] <Aginor> topher, so the router will aggregate it all together when it sends it upstream :)
[22:53] <isotek> anyone have any ideas what could cause a loss like that?
[22:53] <raido> topher: That would be true if your bandwith to the internet is not capable of being satureated by the activity on one site.
[22:53] <Aginor> topher, your strategy only makes some sense when you have multiple isps, and even then you'd need to do a lot more
[22:53] <UcefKH> www.01Tek.TK DOnt be Selfish Let's Tek!
[22:54] <UcefKH> any arabs heeeer
[22:54] <Dylan-sama> is the difference between desktop/server(not LTS)/netbook ISOs just the packages and initial setup included ?
[22:54] <topher> Aginor, raido: so it makes more sense to have on IP address with 3 domains and configure my apache server to listen for the different domain and direct the traffic to the different sites?
[22:55] <UcefKH> any arabs heeeer
[22:55] <Aginor> topher, it is the easiest solution, so it is the one I would advocate
[22:55] <UcefKH> a salamo alykoum
[22:55] <raido> topher: this is an example of a quite sophisticated interfaces file. yours will be much more simple, I can PM with you if you need more guidance   http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/
[22:55] <maco> !sa | UcefKH
[22:56] <maco> Dylan-sama: yeah
[22:56] <Aginor> topher, of course, if you have good reasons, having separate ip addresses makes sense, but even then you don't need more than one nic
[22:56] <tolecnal> After my most recent 'aptitude update && apti-safeupgrade', for some reason grub broke. I've tried to boot up with a live CD, and make a chroot to run 'update-grub'. I've mounted / and /boot, as well as /dev, /proc and /sys from the fs on the live cd. The chroot works, but it complains when I run 'update-grub' that "/usr/bin/grub-probe: error: cannot find device / (is /dev mounted?)"
[22:57] <Dylan-sama> maco: ahh ok, that makes more sense then
[22:57] <UcefKH> thx maco
[22:57] <UcefKH> i can help u any body
[22:57] <topher> Aginor: i did try to use aliases, but i was unsure about the efficiency of doing that.
[22:57] <topher> even though it worked fine
[22:58] <tolecnal> /dev is mounted and everything else looks fine.. though I can't get any further. any tips on how to proceed? My Google-FU didn't yield any results that helped
[22:58] <raido> topher: what Aginor sugggests is true, unless you will be using the entire allocated bandwith on the nic that the sites are on and if that bandwith is less than you pipe to the internet. Understand?
[22:59] <Aginor> topher, unless you expect to see more than 100MBps/1Gps/10Gps combined for all three websites, it will be just as efficient
[22:59] <raido> Aginor: right
[22:59] <topher> yeah, makes sense
[22:59] <Aginor> topher, and even if you do hit the NIC limit, by using three different ones you'll just move the problem to your router which still aggregates the traffic together, so you'd have to get a faster router
[22:59] <jameswf> ~
[23:00] <UcefKH> what is the best video editors ?
[23:00] <raido> topher: plus you save IPs for later when you really need them
[23:00] <e000> So, randomly, my usb devices and ports would stop responding, can only seem to remedy via a hard reboot. How can I fix this?
[23:00] <Thomas_Bates> Hello, I compiled Blender 2.56 & LuxRender from SVN/HG methods, I'm noticing that I can't set a default icon for the luxrender filetypes, or make launchers for the programs. How do I go about adding in programs to the Application menu?
[23:00] <Aginor> raido, he can still use different ips if he's doing aliases
[23:00] <topher> i don't think i'll have that much traffic for awhile.
[23:01] <topher> atleast until i find a new job
[23:01] <tbruff13> Ubuntu won't connect to my high schools wireless why is this
[23:01] <raido> Aginor: yeah, but no need to
[23:01] <Aginor> topher, take the easy solution then, if you need to change it in the future it will still be quite easy to do
[23:01] <Aginor> topher, you won't be painting yourself into a corner
[23:01] <abem> I was upgrading from karmic to lucid and got this error "symbol 'grub_puts' not found, how do i sort it out
[23:01] <Thomas_Bates> (I'm using the File Types Editor to add the custom file extensions and icons)
[23:01] <topher> Aginor: alright, thanks for your help. thanks raido, also
[23:02] <raido> topher: Id use the other nice for other services if your server does other jobs, i.e. NFS, SMB, etc...
[23:02] <raido> topher: "nic's" not nice
[23:02] <raido> no
[23:02] <raido> problemo
[23:03] <Aginor> topher, no worries
[23:03] <tbruff13> does anyone know why this would be happening
[23:03] <Aginor> topher, I'll also disagree with raido and say that you should not use a public web server as a file server, it's a bad idea from a security point of view
[23:04] <Hodapp> Is there a reasonably simple way (given my lack of an Xorg.conf) to set the X server to use 16-bit color?
[23:05] <raido> Aginor: If you have a big budget, thats nice... Ive been doing it for over 10 years, nary a problem. I keep things tight and up to date.
[23:05] <Hodapp> This box came from a dumpster and has only 2 MB of video RAM, so I'll gladly take color artifacts to get a more usable resolution.
[23:05] <topher> Aginor: i wouldn't do that. but i'm having issues with file uploads, upload them into a database or a writable folder?
[23:05] <tbruff13> Hello can anyone tell me why ubuntu cant connect to school wireless
[23:06] <Aginor> raido, or nowadays you can use virtualisation to limit the risks a bit
[23:06] <maharaja_> any idea why the uid/gid on my nfs mount is showing 4294967294
[23:06] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... wireless systems are not always an automatic connecting system...
[23:06] <tbruff13> rrasyrogenees_, i know i have the password
[23:06] <drc> tbruff13: Can it connect to any wireless net?
[23:07] <Evan1> Hi, can anybody help me install a .tar.bz2 file?
[23:07] <tbruff13> drc, yes it is connected right now wirelessly
[23:07] <raido> maharaja_: your user on both systems host/server need to have the same UID/GID
[23:07] <tbruff13> Evan1, extract it aned look for a setup or readme file
[23:07] <newbie01> I have data in open office spread-sheet file and I want to make a graph in xmgrace
[23:07] <maharaja_> raido, i am using ldap for authentcation
[23:07] <drc> then its mostlikely an authentication problem...I'd ask you school's sysadmin
[23:07] <raido> maharaja_: thats seperate and regardless
[23:08] <maharaja_> raido,  how do i ensure that they are the same?
[23:08] <abem> I was upgrading from karmic to lucid and got this error "symbol 'grub_puts' not found, how do i sort it out
[23:08] <newbie01> anyone know ow
[23:08] <Aginor> topher, depends on your database and how important the files are
[23:08] <topher> they are just pictures
[23:08] <Jordan_U> isotek: Define blank.
[23:09] <Evan1> tbruff13: thanks, I found the README
[23:09] <raido> check you UID on both
[23:09] <UcefKH> www.01Tek.TK   // Dont be Selfish, Let's Tek!
[23:09] <raido> maharaja_: check you UID on both
[23:09] <ask_> join
[23:09] <maharaja_> raido, this might look like a silly question i did id in both machines and b oth of them are 1000
[23:09] <tbruff13> drc, hello can you guys help me please
[23:10] <raido> maharaja_: UID and GID are same on both?
[23:10] <newbie01> anyone know xmgrace?
[23:10] <tbruff13> rrasyrogenees_, hello
[23:11] <maharaja_> raido,  i ran id <username>
[23:11] <maharaja_> and the results were the same in both places
[23:11] <maharaja_> i recall  having read somewhere about the problemw tih nfs and mismatch of ids causing issues which is why i am using ldap for authentcation on both the machines
[23:11] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... i am trying to think what other things you might do but i am still not good at imagining what is on your screen to help
[23:12] <rodhash> Hello guys.. this is my first time in IRC.. o/
[23:12] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... you say you are connected... and it IS to the school's network?
[23:12] <tbruff13> rrasyrogenees_, oh well i know the password but all the network manager does is spin up at the top
[23:12] <S74rk7> rodhash: Welcome! I've only been on for like 4 days myself :)
[23:12] <maharaja_> raido,  does it have something to do with the /etc/idmapd.conf file?
[23:12] <rodhash> wow
[23:13] <tbruff13> rrasyrogenees_, i am connected to my home network now i cant connect at school
[23:13] <rrasyrogenees_> i do not have a laptop myself so all i know is what i have learned in school pr read about somewhere
[23:13] <francesc1> Does anyone else here have any problems with youtube on 10.10?
[23:13] <raido> maharaja_: dont know. I use NFS and never had to mess with that file.
[23:13] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... have you been connected to both before?
[23:13] <tbruff13> rrasyrogenees_, the issue is our schools internet is their any way to make wireless transmission from ubuntu look like they are coming from a windows or a mac
[23:13] <JTallis> If you remember me, I'm slowly getting somewhere :(
[23:14] <maharaja_> raido, any pointers?
[23:14] <maharaja_> L(
[23:14] <maharaja_> :(
[23:14] <tbruff13> rrasyrogenees_, no just my home i cant connect at school
[23:14] <zertyui> j'ai des problem avec ma freebox
[23:14] <zertyui> elle reboot sans cesse
[23:14] <raido> maharaja_: your on Linux on both ends right? Not using Unix services for windows, right?
[23:14] <rrasyrogenees_> maybe you need to disconnect from your home network to get on the school network?
[23:14] <maharaja_> raido, nope both from the same vm template
[23:15] <francesc1> Does anyone else here have any problems with youtube on 10.10?
[23:15] <brandon420> where can i see the date that i installed ubuntu?
[23:15] <rodhash> where can I get some help with the grub in Ubuntu 10.10?
[23:16] <maharaja_> man FloodBot1 you are funny
[23:16] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... so your school has ubuntu?  is that what you were saying?
[23:16] <maharaja_> :)
[23:16] <maharaja_> raido, sorry got d/c
[23:16] <raido> maharaja_: ok, but both vm's are linux right?
[23:16] <tbruff13> rrasyrogenees_, no i bring my laptop and use it, but so do other students and their windows and macs work fine
[23:17] <Aginor> !grub | rodhash
[23:17] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... shouldn't be different but i am still learning... lol
[23:17] <tbruff13> rrasyrogenees_, then why cant i connect
[23:17] <maharaja_> raido yes sir both ubuntu
[23:18] <newbie01> xmgrace anyone
[23:18] <rodhash> Thank you ubottu, actually I didn't lost grub I just wanna understand better since there's no 'menu.lst' file even running update-grub
[23:18] <Bartzy> Hi,
[23:18] <Bartzy> Anyone is using Amazon S3 extensively here (20,000+ files per day uploaded) ?
[23:18] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... still trying to figure that one out...
[23:19] <soreau> rodhash: ubottu is a bot. grub2 uses grub.cfg, not menu.lst
[23:19] <tbruff13> ok
[23:19] <JTallis> ARGH.
[23:19] <rodhash> hauahau lol
[23:19] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... try this site and see if that helps https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/internet/C/connect-to-internet.html
[23:19] <rodhash> Sorry, I didn't know it's a bot lol
[23:19] <JTallis> My Ubuntu disk works perfectly on my laptop, no question asked. Though on my Desktop, it says "Unable to find a medium containing a live file system"
[23:19] <ActionParsnip> rodhash: you don't edit grub.cfg btw,it is generated, so edit the files used to make it to apply the settings you want
[23:19] <JTallis> Halp?
[23:20] <raido> maharaja_: Ok, you got me. You dont need ldap just for nfs, I use nfs here at work and dont use ldap, so Im not sure if ldap is configured properly or not of if it wold cause your problem, but as long as your UID/GIDs match on both sides you should be ok.
[23:20] <soreau> tbruff13: Try stopping network manager and connecting manually
[23:20] <raido> maharaja_: what was the issue before you used ldap
[23:20] <ActionParsnip> JTallis: use the CD self test to double check the CD.Also test your RAM from the same screen
[23:20] <rodhash> ok
[23:20] <MeanEYE> Anyone knows of a tutorial on how to make your own mouse pointer ?
[23:20] <maharaja_> raido, no issue with ldap it works fine, i can change passwords, do id all sorts of thigns and it works fine
[23:20] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... i think i forgot to read that much before i sent it... lmao
[23:20] <tbruff13> soreau, how
[23:21] <maharaja_> the only thing is that when i mount the home directory from the main server, it exports on the client and the uid/gid look all wrong
[23:21] <soreau> tbruff13: If it's WPA, you have to use wpa_supplicant
[23:21] <UcefKH> www.01Tek.TK   // Dont be Selfish, Let's Tek!
[23:21] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff... check in here on your computer... #
[23:21] <rrasyrogenees_> Open System → Administration → Networking.
[23:21] <Scotty> yess, am i in?
[23:22] <rrasyrogenees_> see if the network is listed there
[23:22] <LjL> UcefKH: please don't
[23:22] <Acid190> Is there an ubuntu program that does video screen shots?
[23:22] <Zed`> I am trying to resize a volume in gparted but if I select info it says Warning: Logical Volume Management is not yet supported yet"  - suggestions?
[23:22] <UcefKH> ok
[23:22] <tbruff13> soreau, im lost what does that mean
[23:22] <soreau> tbruff13: Are you sure that your wifi card can connect to the ap with the encryption type set? Some wifi cards cant connect to certain WPA configurations
[23:22] <tbruff13> soreau, it is wpa
[23:22] <Scotty> Evening everyone
[23:22] <soreau> tbruff13: And if all else fails, consult the network administrator for your school
[23:22] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... on your task bar there is a place called System... in there you will find Administration... then go to Networking
[23:23] <tbruff13> soreau, ok
[23:23] <tbruff13> rrasyrogenees_, what do you mean
[23:23] <Scotty> getting a problem running XAMP, wont start Apache, says another instance is running...  nothing in processes that represents apache :D
[23:23] <tbruff13> rrasyrogenees_, you mean networking tools
[23:23] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... what soreu says would be a better way to go i think too
[23:23] <ActionParsnip> Acid190: one is already installed
[23:24] <ayecee> Scotty: stale pid file in /var/run?
[23:24] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... i think so... to check to see if the school network is even available
[23:24] <raido> maharaja_: http://serverfault.com/questions/98741/files-mounted-over-nfsv4-are-owned-by-4294967294-uids-and-gids-match
[23:24] <Scotty> ooo, lemme check that out, thanks ayecee
[23:25] <tbruff13> soreau, ive tried he told me the internet is open to students who can connect to it, and he told me he was unfimilar with how linux connects to the internet. He asked me if i could use windows or install something to make it look like a windows computer was trying to connect
[23:25] <Scotty> i installed 11.04 over 10.10...  regretting it lol
[23:26] <rodhash> ActionParsnip: How do I edit the files you mentioned?
[23:26] <ActionParsnip> Scotty: natty is supported in #ubuntu+1  not here :)
[23:27] <ActionParsnip> rodhash: depends what you want to achieve
[23:27] <drc> tbruff13: Sounds like a pretty sorry admin to me...and trying to diagnose the school problem at home is difficult at best
[23:27] <FreezingCold> I'm trying to seed Ubuntu but it's seeding extremely slow
[23:27] <maharaja_> raido,  thanks for pointer, NEED_IDMAPD is what i had to change as well
[23:27] <maharaja_> i am restarting the client just to ensure that it has gotten the right value
[23:27] <tbruff13> drc, i live in louisiana or IT is the Suddenlink internet guy
[23:27] <maharaja_> thanks for the pointer
[23:28] <tbruff13> so please help
[23:28] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13...
[23:28] <snollux> hello! I'm having some serious problems with my xsession/display manager; I'm not really sure what happened but I've got essentially 4 instances of the gui squished into one screen and everything is distorted and illegible. HOWEVER, I'm logged in remotely via SSH and hoping I can fix it here. However, this  is a thin-client thing so I'm not sure I'm authorized to reboot it, but I'm hoping...
[23:28] <snollux> ...there's some way I can, as a regular user, log out ALL INSTANCES of my user remotely. Is this possible?
[23:28] <Scotty> kk, got an apache2.pid file in /var/run
[23:28] <rrasyrogenees_>  tbruff13... Connecting using Network Manager
[23:28] <rrasyrogenees_> Network Manager (System → Administration → Network) supports Roaming mode. This allows you to connect to any available wireless network in range.
[23:28] <rrasyrogenees_>    1.
[23:28] <rrasyrogenees_>       In the Taskbar click the Network Manager icon.  2.     Select your wireless network from the list.   3.      Enter your Network Key.  4.     Click Connect.
[23:28] <FloodBot3> rrasyrogenees_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:28] <drc> tbruff13: What I'd do is get a friend (that can connect to the internet there) to go with you, have him/her connect here to #ubuntu, then try to log on and we can work from there
[23:30] <maharaja_> cool got it all working
[23:30] <raido> snollux: Not as a regular user, you need to do that from the terminal that the login occured.
[23:30] <tbruff13> drc, we cant access this network from school and rrasyrogenees_ i do use the network manager it does not work and drc, tried to understand the problem, but its like ouPAr school has 2 network because sometimes it asks me for wep and sometimes it asks me for W
[23:30] <maharaja_> raido,  it was the use idmapd thingy
[23:30] <maharaja_> just tell it to do yes
[23:30] <tbruff13> PA
[23:30] <raido> maharaja_: great
[23:30] <maharaja_> and that's all
[23:30] <maharaja_> :)
[23:30] <JTallis> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10612262
[23:30] <JTallis> Need some help.

[23:30] <JTallis> :(
[23:30] <cpgo> I'm trying to boot ubuntu or any cd for that matter and it fails to boot from it. What I'm suspecting is a problem from the cd drive. I put ubuntu on a flash drive and booted into it. In Computer, I don't see a cd-drive. Would that indicate there's a problem with the cd-drive?
[23:30] <maharaja_> FloodBot* you are a crazy lot
[23:31] <raido> cpgo: indeed
[23:31] <drc> tbruff13: You are not understanding what I said...
[23:31] <snollux> aha, I got it by pkilling gnome-session remotely.. but now I'm having an issue where my menu-bar is nonexistent. How, in gnome, can I fix this? The start applications, etc etc. are gone
[23:31] <cpgo> radio: what if the activity light blinks? Could it still be a problem with the data cable?
[23:32] <tbruff13> drc, I am just lost okay i dont know what to do i cant really do much from school we are not allowed email or instant message
[23:32] <raido> cpgo: could be, I would look in the BIOS to see if its recognized specifically my model
[23:32] <cpgo> ok
[23:32] <raido> cpgo: by model I meant
[23:32] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... take a deep breath and relax... you will get there... =D
[23:33] <drc> tbruff13: take a friend that can connect to the school net with you, have them come here to #ubuntu, and then YOU try to connect to the wireless net. You can talk to us and tell exactly what you see.  3rd hand diagnosis is not good
[23:33] <cpgo> radio: yea I figured lol
[23:33] <drc> tbruff13: you mean no one can irc from sshool?  Then use the browser to connect to #ubuntu
[23:34] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... he just means for you to find someone there that is connected and for them to come to this chat to talk on their computer while you work on yours
[23:34] <tbruff13> drc, I cant talk to you from school its blocked the website and all
[23:34] <snollux> looks like I got it
[23:34] <snollux> booyah
[23:34] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... they have chats blocked?  where are you now?
[23:35] <tbruff13> drc, all my computer does is it keeps trying to connect and then the network manager asks me for the password again and im in louisiana
[23:35] <rodhash> Guys I'm new in IRC.. should I type the name of the person or is there any automatic way to reply a message?
[23:35] <cpgo> tab
[23:35] <UcefKH> clik
[23:35] <Pici> !tab
[23:35] <UcefKH> d name
[23:35] <UcefKH> to pm
[23:35] <rodhash> wow
[23:35] <rodhash> great
[23:35] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... i meant where in proximity to school
[23:36] <rodhash> How does ubottu answer my question so natural?? lol
[23:36] <UcefKH> roland, wow
[23:36] <drc> tbruff13: Sorry, you have no clue what I'm trying to do to help, so some one else can try.
[23:36] <JTallis> Can someone help me out with "Unable to find Medium containing a live file system" My post is: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10612262
[23:37] <cpgo> radio: it say IDE CD-ROM drive
[23:37] <tbruff13> drc, im sorry ok i really dont know what your trying to do and im telling you all i know is there anyway that the next time i connect ubuntu can keep a log of errors so i can come home and show them to you
[23:37] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... again... take a deep breath and relax... that way your thinking will be more clear... frustrations only block that
[23:37] <rodhash> thanks guys.. that's very nice :)
[23:38] <tbruff13> I have to eat back in 30 sorry i know rrasyrogenees_ and im sorry
[23:38] <raido> cpgo: Ok, where? In the boot order section? Was there a section that identified it by brand name and model number?
[23:38] <francesc1> Does anyone else here have any problems with youtube on 10.10?
[23:38] <YankDownUnder> Problem with Youtube?
[23:38] <francesc1> ya connection reset
[23:38] <cpgo> radio: Wish I could tell you for sure, its not my computer, I'm helping a family member through skype/webcam (out of country). Doesn't appear to be so though
[23:39] <francesc1> YankDownUnder: ever happen to u ?
[23:40] <YankDownUnder> francesc1, Only time that happens is when the connection drops out - however, that's mostly on "new installations" for me....ergo, I resolve that issue by installing "dnscache-run" and restarting the network, or restarting the system....
[23:40] <hittt> how can i make a device file with raw microphone data?
[23:40] <hittt> my system is currently using dmix or something like that -- but i NEED a raw file!
[23:40] <rrasyrogenees_> tbruff13... can you tell me what you did while at school to get the school network connection and when did it fail?
[23:40] <Scotty> how do you deal with a stale pid file?
[23:40] <soreau> hittt: You can use jack API to get raw audio data
[23:40] <francesc1> YankDownUnder: see for me its not the connection dropping... i have to refresh the page a few time s everytime i few a video
[23:41] <raido> cpgo: Hard to tell, If the bios does not show the make and model, it could be a crappy BIOS that doesnt tell you that info or it could be because the drive is faulty and the entry he see in BIOS is just a default entry for boot order "if" there is a drive there. It is also possible that the drive is dead but lights up because is has power. Tough to diagnose remotely.
[23:42] <cpgo> radio: It's a Dell Inspiron 4600 - probably crap BIOS
[23:42] <YankDownUnder> francesc1, Well, that, at least to me, would say that the connection is slow - the mapping is slow...this is why I like to make sure (absolutely) that all my DNS is cached - so that especially something like Youtube is going to refresh faster (the workstation doesn't have to re-find the IP address of the page/site)
[23:42] <cpgo> radio: simplest thing to do is get another cd drive and check
[23:42] <cpgo> radio: thanks
[23:43] <francesc1> YankDownUnder: so installing dnscache-run may help ?
[23:43] <AnassAhmed> hello, I've a problem with /etc/hosts
[23:43] <rcconf> Is there a way to update and shutdown after it (script) and implement in UBuntu menu?
[23:43] <YankDownUnder> francesc1, I'd give it a go - and usually this is my resolution for anything "browsing" related for networking issues - give it a go, it ain't going to harm anything...
[23:43] <raido> cpgo: yep
[23:43] <rcconf> so I press shutdown and would update first then shutdown.
[23:44] <AnassAhmed> I added 192.168.1.33   google.com and it worked
[23:44] <francesc1> YankDownUnder: is there any configs i have to do?  or just install and try ?
[23:44] <AnassAhmed> but when I added 192.168.1.33  darelnadwa.com it didn't work
[23:44] <YankDownUnder> francesc1, No manual configurations at all - it's literally automagic....
[23:44] <AnassAhmed> I've a server in the same network
[23:44] <francesc1> cool .. i might as well give it a shot
[23:45] <AnassAhmed> I can't reach to it with the domain
[23:45] <rcconf> oh
[23:45] <YankDownUnder> francesc1, Give it a go, then either reboot, or restart yer network - you'll see what I mean...
[23:45] <AnassAhmed> I want to reach to it by domain through adding this line to /etc/hosts
[23:45] <rcconf> AnassAhmed: darelnadwa.com has address 41.196.174.204
[23:46] <AnassAhmed> yes, It's work from external
[23:46] <rrasyrogenees_> cya later everyone... enjoy the thoughts
[23:46] <rcconf> hm
[23:46] <phixa> does anybody have any easy questions?
[23:46] <AnassAhmed> but when I try to browse it from the same network
[23:46] <AnassAhmed> I can't reach to it, because the router page appeared
[23:46] <rcconf> AnassAhmed: maybe this will help you man resolv.conf
[23:48] <AnassAhmed> @rcconf: I think that I can edit /etc/hosts, and I edited it but it didn't work with darelnadwa.com but worked with google.com
[23:48] <rcconf> AnassAhmed: try to add that site after google.com
[23:48] <AnassAhmed> @rrconf: it worked with all progams except firefox
[23:48] <rcconf> in same line
[23:48] <ajrt> arand, i verified the downloaded image's sha256 sum, and recreated the usb from that again and reinstalled, same error.
[23:49] <rcconf> AnassAhmed: maybe firefox is caching the DNS
[23:49] <mitries> Buenas noches a todos, alguien me podría ayudar con las opciones de filtro ASCII de open office
[23:49] <mitries> ¿
[23:49] <rcconf> restart it?
[23:49] <rcconf> !es | mitries
[23:49] <AnassAhmed> @rrconf: yes, I think that, I removed the cash and the cookies but the problem is still
[23:50] <rcconf> AnassAhmed: you only have that problem in firefox?
[23:50] <rcconf> so it's firefox fault not hosts
[23:50] <rcconf> AnassAhmed: join #firefox
[23:50] <arand> ajrt: Hmm, try reinstalling grub then?
[23:50] <arand> !grub2 | ajrt the wiki has instructions
[23:51] <AnassAhmed> @rrconf: but firefox redirect google.com to the IP in the /etc/hosts
[23:51] <rodhash> Guys why there's no /etc/inittab on Ubuntu 10.10?
[23:51] <ayrton_> hey guys i have an ipod touch and it mounts and i open it with rythembox, but how do i add sounds to it
[23:51] <cpgo> radio: I got a picture of the bios menu: http://i56.tinypic.com/112bfde.jpg
[23:51] <cpgo> radio: doesn't say model but shows there is a cd drive
[23:51] <GuyCanada> anyone know of a good playstion or ps2 emulator for ubuntu?
[23:51] <pepsi> ive always used vmware workstation, but can anyone suggest an easily installable virtual machine? like whats qemu-kvm?
[23:51] <rcconf> AnassAhmed: check network settings in firefox
[23:51] <rcconf> maybe you ignore local IPs
[23:51] <rcconf> ignoring
[23:51] <AnassAhmed> @rrconf: OK
[23:52] <itaylor57> !upstart | rodhash
[23:52] <YankDownUnder> GuyCanada, PCSX2
[23:53] <rodhash> Thanks itaylor57
[23:54] <AnassAhmed> @rrconf: I checked the network prefences in firefox, it's not ignoring anything else: 127.0.0.1
[23:54] <rcconf> !virtualbox | pepsi
[23:54] <itaylor57> rodhash: np
[23:54] <rodhash> this channel is amazing :)
[23:54] <rcconf> k
[23:55] <YankDownUnder> This channel is better than bacon.
[23:55] <rodhash> lol
[23:55] <pepsi> rcconf: so you'd recommend virtualbox? have you ever tried qemu-kvm?
[23:55] <drc> bacon...ummmmm
[23:56] <cpgo> now im hungry :(
[23:56] <cellardoorGenLap>  YankDownUnder rodhash http://bit.ly/e6JQBY ;D
[23:56] <ayrton_> mmmm bacon
[23:57] <rcconf> pepsi: no, i just use virtualbox
[23:57] <rcconf> pepsi: oracle version
[23:57] <cellardoorGenLap> Lightly toasted roll... Streaky smoked bacon... bit of lettace and sauce in there too...
[23:57] <pepsi> rcconf: ok, thank you
[23:57] <YankDownUnder> cellardoor, Hehehehe...I feel like that nearly every day...
[23:57] <cellardoorGenLap> anyone hungry now?
[23:57] <cellardoorGenLap> ;D
