| erUSUL | jayant: all apps in ubuntu come in one ( main + others ) packages. not all packages area complete app | 00:00 |
| hossam | hi | 00:00 |
| hossam | any one here ? | 00:01 |
| jayant | th0r: ok..thanks a lot...the applications you named, fall under which category. I mean, how can i search for alternatives to the apps i already have? | 00:01 |
| jayant | brightspark: ok thank you | 00:01 |
| hossam | iam use backtrack ok and have problem | 00:01 |
| FlipStonE | hello, can someone help me with a little banshee problem? | 00:02 |
| th0r | jayant: I think if you install 'xfce4-desktop' or 'xubuntu-desktop' (can't remember which it is) you will install most of what I have mentionied. Also, a lot of folks on #xubuntu can help you find 'faster' packages for older hardware | 00:02 |
| jayant | on #xubuntu someone told me that lubuntu is even lighter than xubuntu.....What should i go for ? | 00:02 |
| th0r | jayant: also, if you check the xfce homepage there is a lot of info there | 00:02 |
| bastidrazor | hossam: you should ask in #backtrack-linux | 00:02 |
| jayant | th0r: ok thank you, BTW, it's 'xubuntu-desktop' | 00:03 |
| Stelpa | heyo | 00:03 |
| th0r | jayant: you can install both xfce and lxde and see which you prefer | 00:03 |
| Stelpa | I have a question, not about ubuntu, but about open source in general | 00:03 |
| Stelpa | I was at radioshack the other day, and I saw under the software section a usb drive being sold simly as "software package" | 00:03 |
| Stelpa | It had a list of included software | 00:03 |
| Stelpa | It was all open source and free | 00:03 |
| jayant | th0r: ok...thanks you | 00:03 |
| jayant | thanks a lot to everyone for all the help ! :) | 00:04 |
| Stelpa | Thunderbird, Firefox, Open Office, ect | 00:04 |
| Stelpa | Is that legal at all? | 00:04 |
| Stelpa | They obviously had no permission to be selling these free programs | 00:04 |
| th0r | Stelpa: were they selling the software, or the usb drive? | 00:04 |
| Stelpa | They were advertising the software on the usb drive | 00:05 |
| Stelpa | But I am sure in court they would argue that the drive is what is being sold | 00:05 |
| th0r | Stelpa: there is nothing in the rules that says they can't include the software on something they are selling | 00:05 |
| Guest84979 | how can I execute more than 7 processes in the same file ? I mean I know I have to type "./process" to execute each one, but O would like to execute them in one file ! how can I do that ? | 00:05 |
| Stelpa | However, even the size of the drive is not even listed | 00:05 |
| Stelpa | It is all about the software | 00:05 |
| Stelpa | I mean, its called "software package"! | 00:05 |

| lefty_ | Ok NEED help How DO i GET right click working ON HP MINI 210-1100 SERIES? | 00:06 |
| alien_ | Stelpa: All depends on the type of licence that the software has ... | 00:06 |
| mrdeb | is there another good image editor that's simple, besides gimp | 00:06 |
| Stelpa | I dont know, I really think it is kind of ridiculous | 00:06 |
| Polah | !ask | lefty_ | 00:06 |
| ubottu | lefty_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 00:06 |
| Stelpa | Selling open source stuff | 00:06 |
| th0r | lefty_: not by shouting | 00:06 |
| Stelpa | Gimp was on the list too, btw | 00:06 |
| lefty_ | SRY FOR SPam | 00:06 |
| Polah | Stelpa: They will argue that they are charging for the drive and packaging. Regardless of if they are charging more for the presence of such software. | 00:06 |
| Stelpa | :\ | 00:07 |
| * Stelpa sighs | 00:07 | |
| Stelpa | i suppose | 00:07 |
| Stelpa | thanks for letting me know :) | 00:07 |
| Stelpa | its a bit of an injustice, though | 00:07 |
| lefty_ | th0r : is this better? | 00:07 |
| th0r | lefty_: much | 00:07 |
| FlipStonE | if someone could help me: banshee makes his own playlist right? but when i add my music map, where everything is in it's own directory, then banshee reorganises this in the playlist. Can't i clear it that the playlist is the same as my music directory listing? | 00:07 |
| Stelpa | it was probably a 2gb drive, and they were selling it for like 20 bucks because of the "state of the art software" included | 00:07 |
| Stelpa | its ridiculous >_< | 00:07 |

| lefty_ | Ok need help how do i get right click working on HP MINI 210-1100 SERIES? <-- th0r | 00:10 |
| brightspark | Stelpa: as far as I know, you can sell the stuff under GPL if you want to. Of course, nothing prevents potential buyers from just going and downloading it for free. | 00:10 |
| th0r | lefty_: what have you tried thus far? Have you attempted to get it working with another mouse? Have you checked the mouse config ? | 00:10 |
| lefty_ | th0r i have tried mouse config and tried diff mouse | 00:11 |
| th0r | lefty_: http://www.google.com/search?q=hp+mini+210+right+click+linux&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a | 00:11 |
| cg2916 | how do i make it so that the grub displays the menu on startup instead of the command line? | 00:12 |
| Polah | cg2916: Hold shift | 00:12 |
| Stelpa | brightspark: we need to go out there and put notes on the back of all those things saying that you can download them all free online | 00:12 |
| Stelpa | because the packaging certainly doesn't mention that | 00:12 |
| linux_is_my_hero | how do i add things to my boot config after installing ubuntu if i can't get to the login screen? | 00:13 |
| cg2916 | Polah: ok | 00:13 |
| linux_is_my_hero | like "nomodeset" for example | 00:13 |
| brightspark | Stelpa: well of course the packaging won't say that! and I'd encourage you to read http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/selling.html | 00:13 |
| Stelpa | thanks, brightspark :) | 00:15 |
| lefty_ | thanks th0r | 00:15 |
| th0r | lefty_: np....the first one seems to be a pretty good how to | 00:15 |
| lefty_ | th0r now i am going to boot into ubuntu but omce i get in here gimme this link http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8816327&postcount=6 | 00:16 |
| Stelpa | i understand the philosophy... its just, it feels bad to know so many people out there are getting ripped off by a company selling other people's work when its out there for free | 00:16 |
| brightspark | Stelpa: no problem. In fact, I think it's good that they are distributing free software more than it is bad that they charge for it. | 00:16 |
| induz | is anyone familair with wine door?? | 00:17 |
| Stelpa | its like selling copied paintings, when they are out there for free on the internet in high res anyway | 00:17 |

| brightspark | Stelpa: I get what you mean. If this was a concern to the authors, they would probably choose to licence it under something like the creative commons noncommercial licence. | 00:19 |

| Suhn | Do you think linux would freeze up for 5 hours | 00:24 |
| Suhn | just becuase i was out of RAM | 00:24 |
| linux_is_my_hero | suhn: i ran a linux machine once without reboot for a year straight | 00:24 |
| Suhn | yea, | 00:24 |
| linux_is_my_hero | how do i access the command line in 10.10 instead of booting? | 00:25 |
| Suhn | its so stable | 00:25 |
| alex86 | th0r: yeah, i have it. will use for watching video | 00:25 |
| th0r | alex86: and you might look at miro....although I think it is more tailored to video | 00:25 |
| maco | linux_is_my_hero: why are vertical bars gay? i know stripes have an orientation, but i didnt think they had that sort! | 00:25 |
| linux_is_my_hero | maco: its just irritating, because i did a fresh install of ubuntu 10.10 and my dell doesn't like it. something about nvidea drivers :-( | 00:25 |

| DizzieScim_ | hey anyone on that can help me? | 00:26 |

| linux_is_my_hero | genii-around: right after boot? | 00:29 |
| genii-around | linux_is_my_hero: Pretty much right after POST | 00:29 |
| maco | Suhn: it can be run from a live cd's boot menu but should also be available from your grub menu. hold shift on boot to access that menu | 00:30 |
| Suhn | So apperently there is a memory leak with the server software im running. Could taht cause it to freeze up for good? | 00:30 |
| maco | Suhn: yeah | 00:31 |
| maco | Suhn: if its too out-of-memory to execute an out-of-memory (OOM) kill... | 00:31 |
| Suhn | I think its wierd the memor leak never effected me with windows | 00:31 |
| Suhn | even though ubuntu is twice as stable and uses half the ram | 00:31 |
| maco | Suhn: possibly it only exists on the linux version of the software? | 00:31 |
| Suhn | Its all the same software | 00:32 |
| Suhn | im running it with mono | 00:32 |
| Suhn | its c++ | 00:32 |
| Suhn | but | 00:32 |
| Suhn | i was in the server when it froze today | 00:32 |
| Suhn | the server had no lag | 00:32 |

| LittleRed | RobSpectre: did you load a generic driver? | 00:39 |
| RobSpectre | LittleRed: Affirm. Loads with nouveau. It seems nvidia-current is installing itself as "nvidia-current" instead of "nvidia" | 00:40 |

| chobito01 | When is firefox 4 coming to Ubuntu? | 00:40 |
| th0r | !ff4 | 00:41 |
| ubottu | Firefox 4 is the current stable version of Firefox. Current versions of Ubuntu do not have it (see !latest), but there is an unofficial and unsupported PPA that you can use by running the following command: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install firefox | 00:41 |
| Loshki | induz: Sorry, I dunno. Try asking on #winehq | 00:41 |

| induz | its not on repo | 00:41 |
| RobSpectre | LittleRed: Already gave that a go. No dice. | 00:41 |
| induz | is there any website for downloading wine door?? | 00:42 |
| chobito01 | th0r: Will that replace firefox 3.6 completely, or just give me a firefox 4 side by side - I would prefere the latter. | 00:42 |
| th0r | chobito01: I think it will give you side by side, but not sure | 00:42 |
| th0r | induz: several links about installing doors in ubuntu via google | 00:43 |
| Kondry | does anyone know if you guys can run omegle.com in w3m? | 00:43 |
| Loshki | induz: check out the url I sent you above | 00:43 |
| chobito01 | th0r: Well, if the package name was "firefox4", then maybe I could assume that, but otherwise I think it probably does a replace.. | 00:43 |
| th0r | chobito01: once you add the ppa and update synaptic you can see if the package name is the same | 00:44 |
| induz | that link is not working for downalod | 00:44 |
| yeats | chobito01: if you add the stable repo, it will replace ff 3.6 | 00:44 |
| LittleRed | RobSpectre: what I actually ended up doing was going back to the old version > upgrading the driver then using update manager to upgrade the version... works perfectly now | 00:45 |
| chobito01 | yeats: Any way to avoid that? Like running 3.6 and 4.0 side by side? | 00:45 |
| lefty|ubuntu | th0r : What about 2 finger scrolling? | 00:45 |
| th0r | lefty|ubuntu: I have no idea.....don't have a mini so only know what I read in the search | 00:46 |

| Kor9999_ | hi everybody, i have a problem, ubuntu turns off my wireless card every time i shutdown my laptop, suspend or hibernate. The problem is i have to turn it on every time i want to use it; and if i want to use windows, it does not recognize the wireless card. How can i leave it on all the time? | 00:53 |

| chobito01 | yeats: What I mean is, if I start firefox 4, the binary from mozzila, it will go into ~/.mozzila/firefox, and create a new place for ff 4 settings/profiles/whatever - it won't mess with 3.6 stuff, right? | 00:54 |
| th0r | lefty|ubuntu: tpconfig kcm-touchpad and gsynaptics, depending on what touchpad you have | 00:54 |
| pr3nt1c3 | I also want to set up this box like LittleRed just described... as I'll be getting 2 new PC's soon | 00:54 |
| lefty|ubuntu | th0r is that sudo? | 00:55 |
| yeats | chobito01: I don't know. If you add the '--profilemanager' switch to the command, it will let you explicitly choose | 00:55 |
| th0r | lefty|ubuntu: the three are packages in synaptics....install them like any other package | 00:55 |

| th0r | lefty|ubuntu: get what? | 00:57 |
| genii-around | induz: Actually it was wrong ppa. Is actually https://launchpad.net/~rzr/+archive/rzr-tmp At any rate, you can do: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rzr/rzr-tmp then sudo ap-get update and after that you should be able to install by packagename of wine-doors . If on 10.10 then change "maverick" inside of file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rzr-rzr-tmp-maverick.list to lucid .The 10.04 version works fine on 10.10 | 00:57 |
| chobito01 | yeats: I don't want ff 4 to "migrate" anything from 3.6, and I don't want it to modify current 3.6 settings/profiles - so I can just launch ff 4 and worry about that? | 00:57 |

| Kor9999_ | hi everybody, i have a problem, ubuntu turns off my wireless card every time i shutdown my laptop, suspend or hibernate. The problem is i have to turn it on every time i want to use it; and if i want to use windows, it does not recognize the wireless card. How can i leave it on all the time? | 00:59 |
| th0r | lefty|ubuntu: I just gave you three package names from synpatic. Try the first one, if it doesn't work for you uninstall it and install the next one | 00:59 |
| yeats | chobito01: I feel like I'm just repeating myself, but 1) I don't know what FF4 will do if you install it that way - I would assume it *will* use the default profile folder, and 2) if you don't want it to use the default profile folder, you can control that with the '--profilemanager' switch -- does that help? ;-) | 01:00 |
| linux_is_my_hero | kor9999_: get rid of windows, it will simplify things for you. then troubleshoot linux, and when you get it right, you'll laugh ever time bill gates is seen. | 01:00 |

| toby_ | mickster04, agreed..... back to windoze... : | 02:09 |
| toby_ | :( | 02:09 |
| mickster04 | Grey_King: well screen is a way of starting up a termoinal, and then you can close it without closing it if you get me, you can close the terminal program, but the screen will still run, so you can reattach it later, though i would consider working out a way of logging into the server with a user that can run those commands | 02:09 |

| Paddy_NI | fisix: Okay so the emote thing is still not working | 02:46 |
| fisix | correct | 02:46 |
| ScarabDrowner | 5:10? bots' clocks are off | 02:46 |
| tjiggi_fo | Hathadar, <forwardslash> <string> | 02:46 |
| Paddy_NI | fisix: humour me and send two emotes to your friend, :-) and :) | 02:46 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, default emoticons definitely work. i can even send custom emoticons that i've received and saved about a month ago | 02:47 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, i couldn't send certain custom emoticons however... | 02:47 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, some work, some don't (for sending). in receiving, i can't receive any custom emotes | 02:48 |

| atm235 | hi! my english is not good! this is the question. I have a small linux executable obtained from a compiled c program. all I want is to get de source code. is that possible? how? | 02:51 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, nope, i'm testing this with multiple friends | 02:51 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, and yes, i've tried restarting | 02:51 |
| Paddy_NI | fisix: In WLM on windows there is an option in the tools menu to show emoticons and one to show custom emotes | 02:51 |
| aure_ | i'm traying program in android | 02:51 |
| ScarabDrowner | atm235: where did you get the program? | 02:51 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, also tried testing on numerous days in the past week on different networks | 02:51 |
| aure_ | with java and eclipse | 02:51 |
| sancas | can i use if with conky?? how to?? | 02:51 |
| aure_ | ide | 02:51 |
| aure_ | but | 02:51 |
| Paddy_NI | fisix: still there problem if they are using wlm | 02:51 |
| th0r | atm235: there is no way to reverse engineer it, but if you compiled the program you already have the source code | 02:51 |
| Opisky | abiy: hmm | 02:51 |
| Paddy_NI | *their | 02:52 |
| atm235 | it was send by a teacher | 02:52 |
| aure_ | the eclipse ide dont show me he help menu | 02:52 |
| aure_ | and I need it because | 02:52 |
| aure_ | i need to add the adt plug in | 02:52 |
| aure_ | and I dont know how can i solve this problem | 02:53 |
| ScarabDrowner | sancas: one sec | 02:53 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, their configurations are right. i know this because i use wlm and emote transactions work perfectly | 02:53 |
| aure_ | I investigated in a lot of places... please | 02:53 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, should i choose msn? or wlm for the pidgin protocol | 02:53 |
| atm235 | it was no me that compiled the program. all I have is the linux executable | 02:54 |
| keyrate | update-manager -d acutally updating to Natty beta1 yet? | 02:54 |
| linux_is_my_hero | slow internet please help | 02:54 |
| Paddy_NI | fisix: WLM | 02:54 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, i was on wlm, trying msn now.. | 02:54 |
| linux_is_my_hero | i think its my wifi drivers | 02:54 |
| sancas | ScarabDrowner, gonna your time... | 02:54 |
| Paddy_NI | fisix: using the "MSN" protocol may break file transfers again | 02:54 |
| ScarabDrowner | sancas: http://paste.ubuntu.com/587636/ this is how I use it in my conky.rc | 02:54 |
| Paddy_NI | fisix: WLM seems to be the one you need | 02:54 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, ur right, file transfer no longer works | 02:54 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, wat do now? | 02:55 |
| Paddy_NI | fisix: use wlm | 02:55 |
| sancas | ScarabDrowner, but this is fot mounted and i need use with my network :( | 02:55 |
| sancas | for* | 02:55 |
| Paddy_NI | fisix: I guess you may have to do without custom smiley faces and beer icons | 02:55 |
| Paddy_NI | :( | 02:55 |
| naomi_ | I hate Pidgin. D: | 02:56 |
| Paddy_NI | hehe | 02:56 |
| fisix | when i try to log in wlm, i get a "myemail" disabled. unable to authenticate: nexus steam error | 02:56 |
| fisix | when i click re-enable, it works | 02:56 |
| Paddy_NI | I prefer empathy it just lacks the vast list of plugins that pidgin has | 02:56 |
| Paddy_NI | fisix: should be fine.. make sure the msn protocol is not in use | 02:57 |
| naomi_ | I just use amsn or Skype. Pidgin makes me rage. | 02:57 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, so i have to click reenable every time..? | 02:57 |
| Paddy_NI | fisix: hmm.. try logging out and back in | 02:57 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, tried. i'm prompted every time to reenable | 02:58 |
| ScarabDrowner | sancas: syntax should be the same, just use a different variable from http://wiki.conky.be/index.php?title=Variables that works for your needs | 02:58 |
| T_N_T | howdy, if anyone can help me with an issue, I was trying to get sound to work with skype on 10.10 64 bit gnome an I deleted pulseaudio and replaced it with esound and now I lost the little applet that controls sound preferences and flash sound is not working anymore either | 02:59 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, gotta click reenable a few times for it to actually work.. | 02:59 |
| Paddy_NI | sec fisix | 02:59 |
| xangua | T_N_T: reinstall pulseaudio | 02:59 |
| T_N_T | is that the only way to fix it, I can't get audio to work right with skype on pulse but it works fine with e sound | 03:00 |
| Hathadar | Had a problem with where samba was upgraded to samba 4 and no longer recognized smb.conf. Uninstalled samba, manually removed /etc/samba. Installed samba4. I cannot find my samba directory now. Not in /etc/, /usr or /usr/local/samba. | 03:00 |

| Hathadar | No longer recognized commands from smb.conf* | 03:01 |
| sancas | ok i'll test it | 03:01 |
| Paddy_NI | fisix: Has it asked you to accept any certificates? | 03:01 |
| silverlightning | is it possible to install ubuntu on a separate harddisk, and boot up from usb on a laptop? | 03:01 |
| T_N_T | + I already tried that once and it didn't seem to bring back the little applet, I am also running Win2-7 transformation pack | 03:01 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, nope | 03:01 |
| sherorox | does anyone know if iboot can recognize a virtual mounted drive? | 03:01 |

| fisix | GAH forgot, turned it back on LOL | 03:02 |
| linux_is_my_hero | how do i get updated wifi drivers for my computer? | 03:02 |
| Paddy_NI | fisix: disable the firewall and re-add the account | 03:02 |

| th0r | jon__: I think there is a gnome app to do that also | 03:03 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, disabled firewall, re-added account, restarted pigin. still says "Unable to authenticate: nexus". clicking reenable a few times gets it to work | 03:05 |

| Paddy_NI | mickster04: I have two passports :P | 03:23 |
| mickster04 | naomi_: NI = Northern Ireland | 03:23 |

| naomi_ | Yes.. I'm aware. I live in Ireland. | 03:23 |
| wirrr | but is there any way i can fix symantec package manager? | 03:23 |
| fisix | Paddy_NI, any moar suggestions.. :( ? | 03:24 |
| mickster04 | naomi_: well then, seeing as britain includes the uk and the uk includes NI then it makes sense that if you are from NI you are british :p | 03:24 |
| shcherbak | wirrr: synaptic, what is err? | 03:24 |
| mickster04 | wirrr: try that and see what err it gives | 03:24 |
| wirrr | it just tries to load, then no longer responds and you have to force quit | 03:25 |
| naomi_ | Yeah I'm thinking of Ulster. Not all of Ulster is part of NI. | 03:25 |
| Paddy_NI | mickster04: then you start to head to foul territory and this is not the place | 03:25 |
| mickster04 | wirrr: if you try that in terminal it should give errors | 03:25 |

| sancas | im trying use wireless_link_bar but i dont have goods results :( | 03:29 |
| xzwerm | ScarabDrowner: what about for example, slackware is very "unix like" is ubuntu kind of the opposite? | 03:29 |
| sartan | is it safe to drop a win7 disk in fstab and drop virtualbox images on it? -- ntfs-3g. | 03:29 |
| ScarabDrowner | xzwerm: I wouldn't know, never used slackware. I think Ubuntu is closer to Windows/Mac than straight Unix, though | 03:30 |

| ExEvillBoSs | hi | 03:36 |
| sancas | ScarabDrowner, but is best use ${if_existing /proc/net/route eth0} them if_up eth0 | 03:36 |
| mickster04 | naomi_: vlc will let you enter urls? | 03:36 |
| ScarabDrowner | shcherbak: I was speaking from a complete lack of knowledge about slackware, but with some experience with MS/Mac and Ubuntu. As well as a few straight Unix machines in the military. | 03:36 |
| sancas | because if you desconnect your cable eth0 not be down allways stay up | 03:37 |
| wirrr | update manager is crashing in the same way. it cannot be used. | 03:37 |

| ScarabDrowner | sancas: if_up eth0 will report up when disconnected? | 03:38 |

| mickster04 | !iptables | 03:40 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 03:40 |

| epzis | sacarlson: because brasero doesnt want to do it lol | 03:42 |
| ScarabDrowner | xzwerm: I believe so, Ubuntu is based on Debian | 03:42 |
| sacarlson | epzis: I thought you said you don't need bootable | 03:42 |
| mickster04 | fisix: you prolly shouldn't be using pidgin for irc :p | 03:42 |
| coz_ | xzwerm, it can have some differences... they are strictly gpl | 03:42 |

| wirrr | hey: it says "bus error" | 03:46 |
| qwebirc3504 | thanks | 03:46 |
| sacarlson | epzis: I'm not sure probly not, it's geared to find files in a location that may not match for a bsd system, maybe try the bsd site if you want that | 03:46 |
| wirrr | also, apt-get is producing the same error. there is a bus error when reading the package list | 03:46 |
| epzis | sacarlson: erm , actually i dont need to modify an ubuntu cd though lol | 03:46 |
| coz_ | epzis, you should be able to change/ edit anything in unix as you do in linux if that is what you meant | 03:47 |
| alex86 | can`t set XChat window to be transparent, can anyone help?! | 03:47 |
| Blue1 | !openvpn | 03:47 |
| ubottu | OpenVPN is a vpn technology in Ubuntu, sudo apt-get install openvpn and then see http://openvpn.net/ and see the documentation "HOWTO" noting you have already installed it. ;-) It rocks! | 03:47 |
| epzis | coz_ : errr i need to edit an udf filesystem, it mounts as read only, thats it | 03:47 |
| qwebirc3504 | alex86: #xchat | 03:47 |
| sacarlson | epzis: you must not have read what remastersys does, it makes a total custom bootable cd from what you presently have running on your system | 03:47 |
| coz_ | epzis, well the suggestion to check with the bsk people is probably the best way to find solutions | 03:48 |
| coz_ | epzis, let me see if there is a channel | 03:48 |
| epzis | coz_ : whats bsk now? | 03:48 |
| epzis | sacarlson: what you mean by running? | 03:48 |
| coz_ | epzis, yes there is a #bsd channel | 03:48 |
| coz_ | epzis, bsk was a typo for bsd | 03:49 |
| epzis | coz_: oh lol | 03:49 |
| sacarlson | epzis: you customize your ubuntu system you now run the way you like it and capture that to a bootable cd | 03:49 |
| epzis | sacarlson: yes....but the udf filesystem has nothing to do with ubuntu | 03:49 |
| sacarlson | epzis: you could for example setup a custom system in a virtualbox the way you want the capture that to a cd | 03:50 |
| sacarlson | epzis: ubuntu supports most file system I know | 03:50 |
| epzis | sacarlson: i may be the most ignorant person in the whole world but could you explain me why copying in a folder and burning with brasero doesnt boot ? | 03:51 |
| alex86 | qwebirc3504: thanks | 03:51 |
| linux_is_my_hero | how do i set up a secure print server on my home network that windows can also see without it being hacked from the internet? | 03:51 |
| qwebirc3504 | :) | 03:51 |
| epzis | sacarlson: and i dont mean "udf filesystem" as a support thing , i mean the udf filesystem is the name of my iso lol my bad | 03:51 |
| wirrr | tell me if i'm being annoying but i'm sure someone has had this problem before. apt-get, synaptic, and update-manager produce "bus error" when reading the package lists. | 03:51 |
| epzis | linux_is_my_hero: do you have a router? | 03:52 |
| Paddy_NI | wirrr: Can you get the full error message? | 03:52 |
| wirrr | it just says bus error | 03:52 |
| linux_is_my_hero | epzis: i have a ubuntu desktop with an installed printer, the desktop and all my laptops (2 of them) all have wifi through my wifi router | 03:52 |
| Paddy_NI | heh | 03:52 |
| wirrr | maybe i'm not sure what you mean | 03:52 |
| epzis | linux_is_my_hero: do you know how to set the printer up? (leave the secure bit) | 03:52 |
| linux_is_my_hero | epzis: the printer is already set up to print from the desktop as a local printer, im just new to doing a print server in ubuntu. | 03:53 |
| CodeWar | am getting constant system freezes .. using 10.10 its been there despite various kernel upgrades and nvidia graphics drivers | 03:54 |
| CodeWar | whats the best way to debug it head on | 03:54 |

| ScarabDrowner | I have an odd, persistent audio issue. Every time my screen turns off due to inactivity while music is playing, the audio will stutter a few times as the screen shuts off then goes back to normal. I haven't been able to find anything in the forums. Is this normal, or is there a solution available? | 03:54 |
| qwebirc3504 | CodeWar: hardware problem maybe | 03:54 |
| CodeWar | qwebirc3504, unlikely .. Solaris 11 works great on the system and Ubuntu 10.04 never had any problems either | 03:55 |
| epzis | linux_is_my_hero: what os do the laptops use? | 03:55 |
| Paddy_NI | Okay wirrr are you proficient with the terminal? | 03:55 |
| linux_is_my_hero | they're all ubuntu 10.10, although theres a windows vista laptop the my gf has that i wanna set up later | 03:56 |
| wirrr | i would say, not very. with basic commands i'm ok... | 03:56 |
| qwebirc3504 | CodeWar: so it's graphics related or memory or cpu .p | 03:57 |
| Paddy_NI | fair enough.. wirrr just open a terminal and type "sudo rm -rf /var/cache/apt/*bin" | 03:57 |
| Paddy_NI | wirrr: wait | 03:57 |
| Paddy_NI | wirrr: "sudo rm -rf /var/cache/apt/*.bin" | 03:58 |
| ScarabDrowner | spooky | 03:58 |
| epzis | linux_is_my_hero: im probably not the right person to ask about this but you may want to have a look at this https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/samba-printserver.html and for your joy the "secure bit" https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/samba-fileprint-security.html else some vintage documentation https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/cups.html | 03:58 |

| linux_is_my_hero | epzis: thanks! :-) | 03:59 |
| wirrr | i knew what it would do | 03:59 |
| Paddy_NI | wirrr: now try your package manager | 03:59 |
| mbrochh | hmmm... i am running ubuntu in a vbox... internet seems to work fine as I can use google chrome. However the update manager has A LOT of updates (63mb). Whenever I click at the install button it hangs when downloading the updates at 0MB | 03:59 |

| qwebirc3504 | out_to_x no out_to_console yes :D:D:D:D | 04:10 |
| Paddy_NI | qwebirc3504: "IPTraf" seem part the way there | 04:10 |
| qwebirc3504 | Paddy_NI: thats for connections right | 04:11 |
| edbian | fizy[laptop]: ssh user@ip:port | 04:11 |
| Paddy_NI | qwebirc3504: yeah | 04:11 |
| qwebirc3504 | iptraf - Interactive Colorful IP LAN Monitor | 04:11 |
| edbian | fizy[laptop]: so with your example. ssh asdf@123.456.789.369:1234 | 04:11 |
| fizy[laptop] | edbian: thanks | 04:11 |
| edbian | fizy[laptop]: You can also use the -p flag for the port e.g. ssh -p 1234 user@111.222.333.444 | 04:12 |
| edbian | fizy[laptop]: Or hostname: ssh user@server1.example.com | 04:12 |
| edbian | fizy[laptop]: More questions? | 04:12 |
| Voting | Some USB hard drive enclosures are compatible with smartctl and some are not, right? How do I find ones that are compatible? If this is not the right room to ask this question, what would be a good one for it? | 04:12 |

| fizy[laptop] | and will that work for external ips? like from school to my home pc? (and yes, i port forwarded right) | 04:13 |
| qwebirc3504 | yes | 04:13 |
| Hathadar | Where can I find a list of programs available under apt-get? | 04:13 |
| qwebirc3504 | fizy[laptop]: of course. | 04:14 |

| crunchbang | hi | 04:14 |
| qwebirc3504 | fizy[laptop]: private key has nothing to do with sudo | 04:14 |
| fizy[laptop] | edbian: iv been running servers for years now. i hate it when people assume that the forwarding is messed up | 04:15 |
| edbian | fizy[laptop]: The forwarding is the toughest part for new people I think. | 04:15 |
| Paddy_NI | naomi_: Okay so open a terminal and type "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8" (without the quotes) press enter and type your password pressing enter again | 04:15 |
| crunchbang | how can i use telnet? on terminal? | 04:16 |
| qwebirc3504 | yes | 04:16 |
| edbian | fizy[laptop]: No offense but your not knowing how to ssh (and not knowing that it's the same command for public / private IPs) leads one to believe that you might not be familiar with port forwarding. | 04:16 |
| qwebirc3504 | crunchbang: telnet IP | 04:16 |
| Paddy_NI | naomi_: once that is done type "sudo apt-get update" | 04:16 |
| guessswh0 | telnet == insecure | 04:16 |
| edbian | crunchbang: but you probably want to use ssh unless you HAVE to telnet | 04:16 |
| qwebirc3504 | crunchbang: dont forget telnet doesn not use encryption | 04:16 |
| fizy[laptop] | edbian: yeah. but im such a nerd with computers. iv been able to assemble a computer from parts and dual boot win and linux on it since i was 7 | 04:16 |
| qwebirc3504 | edbian: my router doesnt support ssh :p | 04:16 |

| guessswh0 | it should not be used | 04:17 |

| qwebirc3504 | edbian: you didnt get. I cannot connect TO ROUTER using SSH | 04:19 |
| guessswh0 | qwebirc3504 so use ssh | 04:19 |
| guessswh0 | since it uses 443 | 04:19 |

| Paddy_NI | naomi_: "the error" ? | 04:21 |
| guessswh0 | https is in no way SSH | 04:22 |
| guessswh0 | they are COMPLETELTY different | 04:22 |
| qwebirc3504 | guessswh0: who said it is? | 04:22 |
| qwebirc3504 | .... | 04:22 |
| edbian | guessswh0: https is not telnet | 04:22 |

| naomi_ | Oh wait. I'm talking about the movie player error. So that thing installed Minitube for me or whatever? | 04:22 |
| mbrochh | Paddy_NI, in update manager i went to settings, and let it chose the best server for my location... now it works | 04:22 |
| edbian | qwebirc3504: guessswh0 for the record https is also not a hotdog. | 04:22 |
| sacarlson | guessswh0: beleave it or not some features of some routers can't all be changed with the web interface you still need to telnet | 04:23 |
| qwebirc3504 | guessswh0: my router does not support SSH. so I have to use telnet (CLI) or https (GUI..with browser) | 04:23 |
| guessswh0 | oh, i thought it was a hot dog | 04:23 |
| intx | i'm going to interrupt.. qwebirc3504 means he wants his router to have a ssh 'server' running on it, probably so he doesn't have to have a computer to do tunneling | 04:23 |
| Paddy_NI | naomi_: no you need now to type into the terminal "sudo apt-get install minitube" | 04:23 |
| fizy[laptop] | but yeah edbian when i get the time, im putting a stripped down gentoo install on my laptop. i need every bit of free resources i can get | 04:23 |
| mbrochh | Paddy_NI, i setup this machine in germany but now i am in singapore... updates worked fine for many months but recently stopped working... | 04:23 |

| qwebirc3504 | it's over the LAN anyway. | 04:24 |

| fizy[laptop] | edbian: yeah, but it boots before you let go of the power button | 04:24 |
| edbian | qwebirc3504: Just ignore him and telnet into your router. | 04:24 |

| edbian | fizy[laptop]: I'd love to talk more but we're off topic. Do you need help with Ubuntu? (arch boots faster I hear...) | 04:24 |

I googled that and it was some sort of bug.. but idk how to fix it or what to do | 04:31 |
| linux_is_my_hero | pddy_ni: meaning you didnt have to force architecture or they didn't have the x64 in the ppa? | 04:31 |

| Mediarocker | setting up nickserv | 04:31 |
| Paddy_NI | naomi_: hmm which version of ubuntu are you using? | 04:31 |
| edbian | fizy[laptop]: make a script with that command in it (without the sudo) and use sudo update-rc.d scriptName | 04:31 |
| naomi_ | Paddy_NI: 10.04 lucid | 04:31 |
| McHearty | Does anyone know if theres a conf for v4l2? | 04:31 |

| McHearty | Does anyone know if theres a conf for v4l2? | 04:35 |
| linux_is_my_hero | adlin': and what keeps virus from going into repos and killing the entire linux world? | 04:35 |

| naomi_ | Paddy_NI: I have that but it's all greyed in. Can't click any of them | 04:38 |

| McHearty | Kyarra: then when you boot in it'll be like you just got ur phone but ur issue should be solved | 04:50 |

| ruan | hariykeyboard: it depends on the package, but it can be opened with package manager | 04:51 |
| McHearty | Halzen: It's always dropped me back to stock install | 04:51 |
| Halzen | ljsoftnet: Not that I'm aware of. When an update breaks my apps, I just apt-get remove them and do apt-get install again. | 04:51 |
| sacarlson | hariykeyboard: just double click the .deb file it should open the installer | 04:51 |

| mikeypizano | my touchscreen works fine but cant seem to find how to calibrate it | 04:57 |
| jiltdil | how to install update of update manager from terminal? | 04:57 |
| ruan | how do i make a launcher execute a file in its current working directory? | 04:57 |
| ruan | jiltdil: sudo apt-get upgrade | 04:58 |
| McHearty | sacarlson: if I was running it through vlc or something I know of a workaround, but I want to set it for flash and am completely lost | 04:58 |
| theamazingbeat | Halzen, there is | 04:58 |
| sacarlson | McHearty: so you want to transmit the webcam to flash? | 04:59 |
| Kyarra | Halzen: thank you i'll try it ( : | 04:59 |
| ruan | if i try gnome-terminal -x cd directory, it fails to cd 'Failed to execute child process "cd" (No such file or directory)' | 04:59 |
| Halzen | Kyarra: Good luck! | 04:59 |
| McHearty | sacarlson: it already transmits to flash, I want to force it to transmit in black and white | 04:59 |
| jiltdil | ruan:ok thanx | 04:59 |
| mikeypizano | anyone know to calibrate an ideacom touchscreen????? | 04:59 |
| ohsix | McHearty: theres v4l2 loopback devices, and effectv | 05:00 |
| theamazingbeat | the email goes through that is not the problem, the problem is it is basically: Email->Exchange Server(just passes right through it)-> GMail SMTP->Send Email->Reciepent | 05:00 |
| hariykeyboard | sacarlson, when after double clicking a .deb file and it says "Dependency is not satisfiable" what does that mean? | 05:00 |
| theamazingbeat | the problem is it goes through the exchange | 05:00 |
| theamazingbeat | the exchange is my work email | 05:00 |
| theamazingbeat | and the gmail is my personal | 05:00 |
| McHearty | ohsix: is there any way to do it without external help? | 05:00 |
| theamazingbeat | so i think u can figure out why this needs to be changed | 05:00 |
| Halzen | theamazingbeat: Hmm... I dunno. Have you posted in a Windows 7 forum? | 05:00 |
| ruan | ok i learned from the main menu.. | 05:01 |
| ohsix | McHearty: generally no, some cameras offer color controls; but its easier just to get software in the middle | 05:01 |
| theamazingbeat | i realized this because I saw recent contacts in my exchange server that were actually part of gmail | 05:01 |
| sacarlson | hariykeyboard: must mean that the repository can't find a part of what your deb application needs. | 05:01 |
| theamazingbeat | yes I have Halzen | 05:01 |
| McHearty | ohsix: if I wasn't on a legacy machine it wouldn't be an issue -_- | 05:01 |
| theamazingbeat | http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/outlook/thread/d23387d7-d3d8-44b3-8381-2fbb65534c02 | 05:01 |
| ohsix | McHearty: effectv has lots of neat hacks too :] not just black and white | 05:01 |
| Halzen | theamazingbeat: Well, I'm only familiar enough with Outlook to know why it annoys me. Sorry. =/ | 05:01 |
| ohsix | McHearty: you don't think having black and white will save cpu do you? | 05:01 |
| McHearty | ohsix: very few cycles to spare for other programs | 05:01 |
| icedtea | ruan: "cd" is a shell command and not a program on most linux and unix systems I believe, you could have gnome-terminal execute a shell script though | 05:02 |
| McHearty | ohsix: no haha | 05:02 |
| theamazingbeat | Halzen, it annoys me to lmfao | 05:02 |
| ohsix | ok good | 05:02 |
| sacarlson | hariykeyboard: it might be easier if you told us the name of the application you want to install, there may be ppa repository to install it | 05:02 |
| speedrunnerG55 | how can i pull up information about my lan and internet ( conection speed) like is it a 10mb/ces or 100mb/sec | 05:02 |
| Halzen | theamazingbeat: Don't Evolution and Thunderbird support Exchange? | 05:02 |
| ohsix | speedrunnerG55: ifconfig will tell you the media mode, so will mii-tool | 05:02 |
| McHearty | ohsix: I was just bring up the cycles because that's why I'll looking for an alternative to software | 05:02 |
| McHearty | I'm* | 05:02 |
| hariykeyboard | sacarlson, streamtuner2-2.0.8 | 05:02 |
| speedrunnerG55 | ifconfig. | 05:02 |
| theamazingbeat | i tried thunderbird, doesnt work for me | 05:02 |
| speedrunnerG55 | is thaTY LIKE IPCONFIGH | 05:03 |
| theamazingbeat | and i dont like evolution at all | 05:03 |
| jiltdil | my laptop is not connecting to net via LAN should i use ifconfig eth0 up? | 05:03 |
| pp7 | speedrunnerG55: yea | 05:03 |
| icedtea | speedrunnerG55: yes;,except better | 05:03 |
| ruan | yeah i did env WINEPREFIX= | 05:03 |
| ohsix | speedrunnerG55: no, not like ipconfig, ipconfig does lots of things other than telling you about an interface | 05:03 |
| Halzen | theamazingbeat: Well, if it were me, I would just forward the Exchange address to my Gmail so that I can handle it within Google's webmail site, but that's just me. | 05:03 |
| bin_bash | Hello. | 05:03 |
| Halzen | Hi thar. | 05:04 |
| ruan | wine's main menu entries taught me how to do i | 05:04 |
| ruan | ^t | 05:04 |
| pp7 | anyone get GTA4 working in wine? | 05:04 |
| ruan | pp7: see the appdb | 05:04 |
| layoer | hi | 05:04 |
| McHearty | ohsix: so no workaround for it without software? | 05:04 |
| jiltdil | chanel for window 7? | 05:04 |
| speedrunnerG55 | so were is the connection speed and what is mii-tool | 05:04 |
| bin_bash | I am running Ubuntu 10.04 on my MBP 5,5 and I am interested in backing up my harddrive to and external one. I would like to back eerything up in the case that I were to lose everything. What is the best and easiest way to do this? | 05:04 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: dd | 05:05 |
| ruan | !dd | 05:05 |
| ohsix | McHearty: well, the driver that would do it is software too | 05:05 |
| Halzen | pp7: Since Windows Live (Games for Windows) doesn't work even a little in Wine, you'd have a rough time getting that to work. | 05:05 |
| bin_bash | pp7: what is dd? | 05:05 |
| McHearty | ohsix: is it something I need installed, or something I can edit? | 05:05 |
| speedrunnerG55 | \? | 05:05 |
| layoer | hello | 05:05 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: dd makes an image of something | 05:05 |
| ruan | GFWL can be disabled, but im not sure if gta would work after that | 05:05 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: so eg. dd if=/dev/sdb1 of=myimage.iso | 05:06 |
| speedrunnerG55 | what is the difference between lo and etho | 05:06 |
| Mediarocker | 10.10 install is working! I made a bad burn previously. Rawr. Either way, I just wiped the drive and put 10.10 on the whole drive. :) | 05:06 |
| bin_bash | pp7: so then how do i know what to put as the first part? | 05:06 |
| pp7 | speedrunnerG55: lo is the internal loopback interface | 05:06 |
| pp7 | speedrunnerG55: eth0 is *usually* your ethernet card | 05:06 |
| speedrunnerG55 | really | 05:07 |
| speedrunnerG55 | when wouldnt it be | 05:07 |
| Mediarocker | speedrunnerG55, LO is loopback and eth0 is your physical NIC, sometimes it's your wireless card. | 05:07 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: run the df command | 05:07 |
| ruan | im on ethernet linked to wifi, no wireless card at all | 05:07 |
| speedrunnerG55 | ok | 05:07 |
| Halzen | Yeah, auto eth0 is what I see for both my onboard LAN and my USB wireless. | 05:07 |
| Mediarocker | pp7, lol you got me. | 05:07 |
| speedrunnerG55 | rx bytes, is that my speeD? | 05:07 |
| ruan | just a cable, no cards | 05:07 |
| bin_bash | pp7: what does the df command do | 05:07 |
| Kyarra | Halzen: i tried hard reset it still wont work. | 05:07 |
| pp7 | rx is the amount of bytes received | 05:07 |
| Kyarra | well it did reset but im still having an issue | 05:08 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: i just told you... scroll up :) | 05:08 |
| speedrunnerG55 | wheres the speed | 05:08 |
| * McHearty sighs | 05:08 | |
| jiltdil | bin_bash:df means disk free just use and see | 05:08 |
| zee313 | is there any downloader in ubuntu? | 05:08 |
| Halzen | Kyarra: That's trouble. What happens when you try to turn it on? Any lights, sounds, vibration? | 05:08 |
| pp7 | speedrunnerG55: you need another app to see speed | 05:08 |
| pp7 | such as bwm-ng | 05:08 |
| bin_bash | so if it says /dev/sda5 | 05:08 |
| Halzen | zee313: What do you mean? | 05:08 |
| bin_bash | then that's what i need to mirror? | 05:08 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: yea that sounds like it | 05:08 |
| speedrunnerG55 | ........are you serious | 05:08 |
| pp7 | speedrunnerG55: serious as cancer :) | 05:09 |
| ruan | zee313: download managers? yes there are several | 05:09 |
| speedrunnerG55 | its sounds pritty rediculous since windows can tell me this stuff with no troubble | 05:09 |
| ruan | zee313: i use fatrat and wget | 05:09 |
| Kyarra | Halzen: well when i turn it , it turns on but, my issue is that im locked out of my phone because of a page that says log into my google account. it'll stay there no matter what. | 05:09 |
| pp7 | speedrunnerG55: ROFL | 05:09 |
| pp7 | speedrunnerG55: just do a sudo apt-get install bwm-ng | 05:09 |
| pp7 | speedrunnerG55: then run bwm-ng | 05:09 |
| zee313 | ruan: thanks | 05:09 |
| pp7 | speedrunnerG55: what has windows got to do with anything? | 05:10 |
| bin_bash | pp7: How do I know what to copy it to | 05:10 |
| speedrunnerG55 | windows is usually not equiped with usefull tools | 05:10 |
| Kyarra | Halzen: It only went to that page because of the limit for too many attempts for password. | 05:10 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: are you backing it up to a USB drive or something? | 05:10 |
| bin_bash | pp7: it's an external hard drive. western digital | 05:11 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: ok so use that :P | 05:11 |
| bin_bash | right but how do I know the title | 05:11 |
| bin_bash | or label or whatever | 05:11 |
| bin_bash | this is my first time backing up from a linux machine | 05:11 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: that'll probably be mounted to /media/something | 05:11 |
| bin_bash | os x just does it for you | 05:11 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: does osx read your mind too? :P | 05:12 |
| bin_bash | pp7: yeah basically | 05:12 |
| bin_bash | :P | 05:12 |
| speedrunnerG55 | type "run bwm-ng" | 05:12 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: ahh great OS then :P | 05:12 |
| Kyarra | can someone PLEASE help me?? | 05:12 |
| speedrunnerG55 | or were is it in the gui | 05:12 |
| bin_bash | pp7: is there a command to figure out what the external hdd path is? | 05:12 |
| Kyarra | hi, um well im having a problem with my xperia x10, i ecxeeded the limit of putting in passwords because i kept messing up, so there was an option either wait 30 seconds or this button that says forgot password? I accidentaly pressed it so it lead me to this page , the header was Too many pattern attempts, and said to log into my google account, i wanted to go back but it wouldnt let me, im either thinking its a bug, or technical difficulties | 05:12 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: like before use df | 05:12 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: you'll see under "Mounted on" | 05:13 |
| speedrunnerG55 | its not telling me the avaluable speed | 05:13 |
| speedrunnerG55 | like is it 10 or 100 ms/s | 05:13 |
| bin_bash | pp7: where would i see that? in nautilus? | 05:13 |
| speedrunnerG55 | and this is a cool app btw | 05:14 |
| ohsix | McHearty: you'd want to use effectv with vloopback but the one page that has good info on the google is timing out | 05:14 |
| speedrunnerG55 | thnx | 05:14 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: no in the terminal.. run df in the terminal | 05:14 |

| bin_bash | thanks | 05:15 |
| bin_bash | :) | 05:15 |
| ohsix | linux-noob: they all have ui builders | 05:15 |
| bin_bash | pp7: what if i want to put it in a folder in the hadd | 05:15 |
| bin_bash | hdd* | 05:15 |
| linux-noob | ohsix, which is the easiest | 05:15 |
| ohsix | linux-noob: i'd use vala ;] but only because it's new and interesting | 05:15 |
| ohsix | there is no measure of the ease | 05:15 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: scroll up and read what i said | 05:15 |
| icedtea | linux-noob: what programming languages do you know or wouldn't mind learning? | 05:15 |
| ohsix | they all require skilled operators | 05:15 |
| bin_bash | ok | 05:15 |
| linux-noob | c++ or C | 05:15 |
| linux-noob | ohsix, may be python too i like it | 05:16 |
| icedtea | linux-noob: what do you want to wrint? | 05:16 |
| icedtea | linux-noob: write? | 05:16 |
| linux-noob | GUI apps for general use ? | 05:16 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: you dont mean you want to make an image of the harddisk and save it on the same harddisk you are making an image of? | 05:17 |
| icedtea | linux-noob: it entirely depends on the what your are trying to do, pick the best the tool for the job imho | 05:17 |
| Logan_ | linux-noob: /join #ubuntu-devel | 05:17 |
| ohsix | just pick one, you won't know whats best for a long time | 05:17 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: i'm sure you can see why that would be silly :P | 05:17 |
| Logan_ | linux-noob: sorry, #ubuntu-app-devel | 05:18 |
| bin_bash | pp7: no no. | 05:18 |
| bin_bash | pp7: I want to put ubuntu in a folder on the hdd | 05:18 |
| bin_bash | the eternal i mean | 05:18 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: on the external.. yea good | 05:19 |
| McHearty | ohsix: is there a cached version? | 05:19 |
| ohsix | McHearty: generally the cached version also has a hell of a time loading when the main is timing out, try "effectv vloopback" on google, maybe it loads there | 05:20 |
| bin_bash | pp7: for the second part of the dd do i do /dev/sdc1 or /media/Elements/Ubuntu | 05:22 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: /media.... | 05:22 |
| bin_bash | pp7: but the first part is the /dev? | 05:22 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: yea | 05:22 |
| ruan | is there a plugin for nautilus that adds 'create new > zip file' to the menu? | 05:23 |
| ruan | or archive at least | 05:23 |
| ohsix | ruan: if you click on a file you can pick "compress" | 05:23 |
| ruan | ohsix: thanks | 05:23 |
| ruan | folder was the case, also worked | 05:24 |
| bin_bash | pp7: thanks | 05:24 |
| zee313 | how to run "turbo C" compiler in ubuntu. As I am familiar with its environment | 05:24 |
| h3r0 | hi friends | 05:25 |
| ohsix | zee313: you could run it in dosbox, but you should get familiar with something newer | 05:25 |
| McHearty | ohsix: I lose so much framerate with virtualizing the webcam output | 05:25 |
| === h3r0 is now known as Guest70683 | ||
| McHearty | ohsix: drops to like maybe 1fps | 05:25 |
| Guest70683 | i want to ask question... why did when i run commands of "findsmb" in ubuntu it shows me my vmnet ip not my actual host? | 05:25 |
| slie | you think the admin will be able to find out i used ophcrack for a campus computer? | 05:25 |
| ohsix | slie: that's a federal offense you know, even if they dont' find out ;] | 05:26 |
| jiltdil | my mousepad is not working after installation of ubuntu.how to solve this? | 05:26 |
| slie | ohsix, damn thanks for the heads up | 05:26 |
| Guest70683 | my actual ip is 192.168.0.33 while my vm is 172.16.221.1 | 05:26 |
| slie | ohsix, but you think they will find out will it be a read flag instantly or just if i'm stupid about it do you know/ | 05:27 |
| Haraken | I'm trying to setup a vpn on my ubuntu server using the following guide but I have a question about the bridging part (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN). My eth0 is an external IP and I only need the ability to have a local network for the VPN that the server can access. is there something I need to do different from the tutorial to achieve this? | 05:27 |
| Guest70683 | how can i change it to my actual host when i run "findsmb" command? | 05:27 |
| jiltdil | my mousepad is not working after installation of ubuntu.how to solve this? | 05:27 |
| bin_bash | pp7: would it be a good idea to partition my external hdd or is it okay to just put the entire ubuntu hdd into a folder? | 05:27 |
| Guest70683 | please help me friends | 05:28 |
| ohsix | Guest70683: the manual page says you can pass the subnet broadcast address | 05:28 |
| benzaldehyde | jiltdil: i had to purge xserver-xorg-input-synaptics to get my touchpad running | 05:28 |
| Guest70683 | what is that mean ohsix? | 05:28 |
| jiltdil | benzaldehyde:please tell the command | 05:29 |
| littlestbear | (Guest70683): what I would do is edit host file in /etc/ though donno if that work | 05:29 |
| zee313 | ohsix: I hav installed dosbox , and "Turbo C " is on my desktop. but as I don't know how to use dosbox so can not open Turbo C . I am new in programming and one of my friend gave me a book about C language and I want to practice its different commands on turbo C compiler | 05:29 |
| benzaldehyde | jiltdil: sudo apt-get purge xserver-xorg-input-synaptics | 05:29 |
| Guest70683 | littlestbear: i think that wouldn't work? | 05:30 |
| chobito01 | zee313: I would recommend you simply use gcc. | 05:30 |
| DaPenguin | zee313, there's so many good nix IDEs why would you want to install that? | 05:30 |
| jiltdil | benzaldehyde : m trying | 05:30 |
| toluene | hi ! is it possible to list the contents of a package using apt ? | 05:30 |
| Guest70683 | if you use findsmb command what did you see?is it your actual host? | 05:30 |
| bin_bash | pp7: you still here, bro? | 05:30 |
| ohsix | DaPenguin: not to mention not needing one at all | 05:30 |
| DaPenguin | ohsix, of course not, my first c app was written in nano lol | 05:31 |
| benzaldehyde | jiltdil: you will probably want to stop and start gdm after that. sudo service gdm stop | 05:31 |
| jiltdil | benzaldehyde:ok thanx i m trying | 05:31 |
| Mito_ | hi | 05:32 |
| ohsix | benzaldehyde: agh what are you telling people | 05:32 |
| Mito_ | what are the package to have a official theme of ubuntu 10.10? | 05:32 |
| benzaldehyde | ohsix: only what i went through personally | 05:32 |
| DaPenguin | that's one thing about buntu i'm still having to get used to. used to handling services from init.d lol | 05:33 |
| zee313 | DaPenguin: Actually the book given by my friend is using that compiler and I as a novice in programming feel it easy to use Turbo C | 05:33 |
| benzaldehyde | ohsix: if it does not work all one has to do is install the package and it is like it never happened, worth a try right? i like the spaghetti thrown at the wall approach, see what sticks | 05:34 |
| din | DaPenguin: before you know it chkconfig will be included. ;) | 05:34 |
| DaPenguin | zee313, the C language doesn't really change between compilers. plus you learn a lot more about the compiling process if you do it from the command line | 05:34 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: yea | 05:36 |
| Guest70683 | DaPenguin:im agree with you but i like scite as an editor :) | 05:36 |
| bin_bash | pp7: would i be better off partitioning the external? | 05:36 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: y? | 05:36 |
| bin_bash | pp7: i'm putting some OSX stuff on there too | 05:37 |
| DaPenguin | Guest70683, usually use emacs these days. better syntax highlighting and simpler to swap between buffers | 05:37 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: you got a macbook pro? | 05:37 |
| littlestbear | (DaPenguin): is emas better than vim? | 05:37 |
| bin_bash | pp7: yeah | 05:37 |
| bin_bash | pp7: I'm sending it in to apple to be fixed | 05:37 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: cool, me too | 05:37 |
| bin_bash | nice | 05:37 |
| DaPenguin | littlestbear, that's all personal preference | 05:37 |
| Guest70683 | DaPenguin: i don't know yet how to use emacs.. how unfortunate.. i hope i can learn later | 05:37 |
| littlestbear | (DaPenguin): been using vim for quit a while , i heard emacs more visual | 05:38 |
| bin_bash | Yeah I need a new logic board probably | 05:38 |
| bin_bash | I'm hoping i can convince them to just give me a new one | 05:38 |
| bin_bash | or something | 05:38 |
| bin_bash | since this is the second time i've had this exact problem | 05:38 |
| bin_bash | plus i have to reformat anyway | 05:38 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: does suspend work for you 100% of the time? | 05:38 |
| bin_bash | since i'm having some kind of memory leak | 05:38 |
| zee313 | DaPenguin: If I want to run a "Hello world " program on command line how will I do that? | 05:38 |
| littlestbear | same here lol | 05:38 |
| bin_bash | pp7: it doesn't work for me /at all/ | 05:38 |
| rodhash | Hello guys.. How do I stop sshd service in Ubuntu 10.10? It uses upstart and everytime I try to kill or using init, it bring the service up again | 05:38 |
| littlestbear | (zee313): which one? bash? | 05:38 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: LOL ok | 05:38 |
| chobito01 | zee313: gcc hello.c -o hello | 05:39 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: works for me about 95% of the time | 05:39 |
| littlestbear | (rodhash): somewhere in init.d/ i think | 05:39 |
| bin_bash | pp7: it did before, but then something happened and now it doesb't, and my fan is running at 6500 RPMs and it's barely keeping it at 60C | 05:39 |
| Guest70683 | rodhash: would "kill -9 pid" doit | 05:39 |
| bin_bash | pp7: when it WAS working, I would get swap crashes a lot | 05:39 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: yea ubuntu tends to run hot on a macbook pro | 05:39 |

| ajsie | anyone knows how to send a body with curl -X PUT? | 05:58 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: are you going to boot osx from that drive? | 05:58 |
| redent | benzaldehyde: which one? http://irssi.org/themes - or a custom one? | 05:59 |
| din | ajsie: isn't -d post data? | 05:59 |
| bin_bash | pp7: no i'm not planning on booting at all from it. it's just to restore my OS when i reformat | 05:59 |
| ajsie | din: yeah but PUT should also be able to send data | 05:59 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: just use ext3 then | 05:59 |
| wetnon | nope the monitor settings do not work | 06:00 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: you shouldnt have to do anything on that drive | 06:00 |
| benzaldehyde | redent: just a image i found on google images set in profile prefs as a background | 06:00 |
| redent | ok | 06:00 |
| benzaldehyde | redent: i'll tinypic it hold on | 06:00 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: you just want to store an image of a drive on it right? | 06:00 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: the filesystem you use doesn't matter for that purpose (as long as you can store files larger than 4gb etc.) | 06:00 |
| bin_bash | pp7: No I want to backup my entire ubuntu parition so that when i reformat, i can restore it basically | 06:00 |
| scriptkids | test | 06:01 |

| ajsie | :( | 06:02 |
| bin_bash | pp7: so a mirror will basically be everything? | 06:02 |

| Tigger__ | pp7: cheers mate, i'll go look | 06:08 |
| jiltdil | how to solvethis | 06:08 |
| DrkCodeman | red2kic: not sure which came first ubuntu or mint but i think it was ubuntu but again ubuntu is based from debian | 06:08 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: why do u need 2 partitions? | 06:08 |

| pp7 | bin_bash: wait.. thinking.... | 06:10 |
| Kimmen | i'm not sure how osx works but I tought you would be able to have 4 partitions (1 for linux core/programs, 1 for os x core/programs, 1 for shared swap, 1 for home) | 06:11 |
| jiltdil | when i go to /media/Data via terminal and uses ls there is nothing shown but when igo to Data without terminal just clicking to it all the contents it it are shown | 06:11 |
| jiltdil | how to solve | 06:11 |
| Kimmen | that would be nice, that way you would have all your documents etc in either os | 06:11 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: maybe i'm confused, but if u just want to store an image of your harddrive on a separate drive you shouldn't need 2 partitions | 06:11 |
| sacarlson | jiltdil: did you try sudo ls -A /media/Data ? | 06:12 |
| Kimmen | jiltdil: go to /media/Data/ in terminal and do a ls al | 06:12 |
| jiltdil | sacarlson:no | 06:12 |
| Kimmen | ls -al* | 06:12 |
| bin_bash | pp7: yeah but if i'm going to use time machine, it'll end up using the entire drive and will overwrte my linux stuff | 06:12 |
| redent | benzaldehyde: the old style camouflage, not the new digital stuff. | 06:12 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: ah I didnt see that part of the picture | 06:12 |
| bin_bash | so it's safer to have two paritions | 06:13 |
| jiltdil | sacarlson:nothing hapend | 06:13 |
| bin_bash | that way i don't risk any kind of overwrite | 06:13 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: are you sure osx will be compatible with ext3 though? | 06:13 |
| bin_bash | that's what i was asking | 06:13 |
| sacarlson | jiltdil: nothing? didn't ask for a password? are you a sudo user? | 06:13 |
| jiltdil | kimmen:it shows permisson | 06:13 |
| bin_bash | pp7: lemme google one sec | 06:13 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: i'm not sure so you better research it before :P | 06:13 |
| benzaldehyde | redent: not familiar with the new digital but this is light camo so i can see the text, any darker and i'd give myself a migraine with all the squinting | 06:13 |
| jiltdil | sacarlson:yes just password and after then nothing shown | 06:14 |
| bin_bash | pp7: wtf is the difference between ext2 and ext3 anyway? | 06:14 |
| Kimmen | bin_bash: it provides journaling | 06:14 |
| sacarlson | jiltdil: are you sure that your nautilus screen is updated with real stuf (the gui you used to see files in) ? Try update that reload on top to verify it's see's real updated contents | 06:14 |
| Kimmen | bin_bash: ext3 provides journaling* | 06:15 |
| jiltdil | sacarlson:before it i used a command sudo mount /dev/sda5 /media/Data after this problem arises | 06:15 |
| cvam | USB card reder is not detected | 06:15 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: what Kimmen said and not much for your purposes | 06:16 |
| sacarlson | jiltdil: then there must be nothing in your /dev/sda5 partition I assume | 06:16 |
| bin_bash | pp7: so am i better off using ext2 for both partitions? | 06:16 |
| benzaldehyde | bin_bash: the selling factor in ext3 over ext2 is that if you have a power failure you won't have a corrupt hard drive after | 06:16 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: if time machine is compatible with it yea | 06:16 |
| redent | benzaldehyde: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MARPAT new military camouflage patterns. scroll down a little. | 06:16 |
| linuxtech | See http://www.debian.org/security/2011/dsa-2208 Ubuntu 10.04 bind9 users might be interested in running the backport I setup at https://launchpad.net/~cp/+archive/net | 06:17 |
| jiltdil | sacarlason:there is lots of documents when i simply mouse click to see it is full of my documents | 06:17 |
| sacarlson | jiltdil: again did you reload the contents in nautilus or try open one of the files you see | 06:17 |
| bin_bash | pp7: am i better off just going with ext2? | 06:17 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: why is there a question? | 06:18 |
| jiltdil | sacarlson:yes i am able to open it via mouse click also its content | 06:18 |
| bin_bash | pp7: i don't really get the difference and google isn't helping | 06:18 |
| redent | does any remember Sony BMG rootkit Fiasco? | 06:18 |
| pp7 | bin_bash: just use ext3 | 06:18 |
| Camarata | bin_bash, afaik there are no benefits to ext2 vs ext3 so no reason to not upgrade? | 06:18 |

| Peddy | what encryption style does ubuntu "encrypted LVM" use? | 06:19 |
| jiltdil | sacarlson: how rto check that some one is connected to my system | 06:20 |
| mikejf | I suspect the problem is CUPS not correctly converting the file into the PDF/PS which is needed by the printer and is instead just sending the original file straight through which is then ignored by the printer | 06:20 |
| sacarlson | Peddy: you can choose serveral not sure what is default I use cryptsetup --cipher aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 | 06:22 |
| redent | Peddy: what do you mean style? | 06:22 |

| winxordie | Anyone have any luck in using dual screens with ubuntu + nvidia? I'm connected to a TV with HDMI and my mouse keeps getting stuck in the TV X screen when I enter separate screen mode. | 06:39 |
| Mediarocker | Natty Narwhal is BEAUTIFUL! | 06:39 |
| ohsix | winxordie: because they are seperate screens in separate screen mode :D | 06:40 |
| cheshire_fox1 | Anyone care to help a girl with a broadcom wifi driver issue? | 06:40 |
| ohsix | i'll help a eunuch | 06:40 |
| winxordie | ohsix: right, but I can switch with the mouse from my laptop screen to the TV screen but I can't go back. Herein lies the problem. | 06:40 |
| ohsix | winxordie: try the other edges of the screen | 06:41 |
| winxordie | ohsix: I have :( | 06:41 |
| kdog | wow, I got my gui back. I saw failsafe-x in /etc/init.d/ and ran it. | 06:44 |
| jesuslinux | hello | 06:44 |
| jesuslinux | :D | 06:44 |
| Kimmen | winxordie: perhaps X doesn't know the relationship between TV and latptop so it can't jump from TV to laptop | 06:45 |
| icedtea | jesuslinux: hi there! | 06:45 |
| icedtea | kdog: its usually pretty slow though | 06:45 |
| winxordie | Kimmen: that's a possibility I guess | 06:46 |
| Rogan11 | So... How do I add things to run during boot? | 06:46 |
| kdog | icedtea: I was shittin' bricks for a while there. I spent hours trying to install onto a new SSD only to figure out that my CD was bad. | 06:46 |
| cheshire_fox1 | someway I will get this damn wireless card to work again -_- | 06:47 |
| icedtea | kdog: ug, that sucks, is this a netbook? | 06:47 |
| jiltdil | how to mount partiton automatically on each time system restart? | 06:47 |
| icedtea | jiltdil: edit /etc/fstab | 06:47 |
| cheshire_fox1 | icedtea: you beat me to it | 06:47 |
| kdog | I didn't have time to d/l another so I created a mini install cd. It worked great, but I was wishing for a fatter pipe. | 06:47 |
| kdog | icedtea: MacBook Pro. I slipped 8Gb RAM in while I had the case open :-) | 06:48 |
| venkatesh | hello everyone | 06:48 |
| jiltdil | icedtea: i have a partiton name Data and when i uses command mount /dev/sda5 /media/Data on every restart then the contents of Data shows to me if i didnot uses this then content is not showing what under Data is? | 06:49 |
| venkatesh | can we access I/O devices memory from user space in ARM architecture | 06:49 |
| ohsix | venkatesh: yes | 06:50 |
| jiltdil | icetea: how to see the contents of my Data on every restart without using everytime the command mount /dev/sda5 /media/Data | 06:50 |
| Paddy_NI | cheshire_fox1: what is the wireless chip you are using? Is it built-in or USB dongle? | 06:51 |
| cheshire_fox1 | built in | 06:51 |
| ohsix | jiltdil: mark it mounted at boot in fstab; you could leave it out of fstab and nautilus will mount it when you click on it, too | 06:51 |
| icedtea | jiltdil: there's a file called /etc/fstab that contains all the drives and folders that are mounted on bootup | 06:51 |
| Paddy_NI | cheshire_fox1: what is the chipset | 06:51 |
| cheshire_fox1 | let me run lspci real quick to make sure what it is | 06:51 |
| cheshire_fox1 | BCM4312 | 06:51 |
| icedtea | jiltdil: for instance, I have /dev/sda1 that I want mounted automatically on bootup, so I put an entry in /etc/fstab for that | 06:51 |
| venkatesh | can we access I/O devices memory from user space in ARM architecture | 06:52 |
| jiltdil | icedtea:ohsix; i dont know to use it as i also read fstab document but it is not very clear tome please help me to mount it? | 06:52 |
| jiltdil | ohsix:icedtea: as i am new so ... | 06:53 |
| cheshire_fox1 | Paddy_NI: just to let you know, jockey is of no help. Right now I'm installing everything related to the broadcom STA drivers for my chipset from the repos. I'm hoping that might work | 06:53 |
| Paddy_NI | cheshire_fox1: wait don't hose your system just yet with driver modules | 06:54 |
| jiltdil | icedtead:ohsix: the output related to sudo blkid of Data is /dev/sda5: LABEL="Data" UUID="0b8c94cb-6b87-4887-9350-38b448fd7e17" TYPE="ext4" | 06:54 |
| ohsix | cheshire_fox1: you need to use b43-fwcutter to install the firmware to use the linux drivers | 06:54 |
| Paddy_NI | cheshire_fox1: I think I found the solution.. my mums netbook has the same chip | 06:54 |
| kdog | Just noticed that I'm now showing 3Gb RAM instead of 8. ??? Something to do with the 2.6.35-28 kernel? | 06:54 |
| ohsix | cheshire_fox1: i use the STA drivers cuz of other problems (ones that seemingly act like heat issues, but ultimately mean dropped connections over time) | 06:54 |
| icedtea | venkatesh: I believe so | 06:54 |
| Paddy_NI | cheshire_fox1: what ohsix said plus you also need firmware-b43-lpphy-installer | 06:54 |
| cheshire_fox1 | ohsix: I haven't needed to use that since 9.10. Normally the STA driver works but for some reason it uninstalled itself | 06:54 |
| venkatesh | can we access I/O devices memory from user space in ARM architecture | 06:55 |
| cheshire_fox1 | hold on, doing a restart real quick | 06:55 |
| cheshire_fox1 | also | 06:55 |
| cheshire_fox1 | venkatesh: STOP ASKING THAT OVER AND OVER | 06:55 |
| ohsix | cheshire_fox1: package name probably changed, i've used bcmwl-kernel-source but i've only ran 10.04 and 10.10 on mine | 06:55 |
| Kimmen | kdog: perhaps you are running the 32-bit version? | 06:55 |
| icedtea | venkatesh: most likely yes | 06:55 |

| Kimmen | kdog: uname -m tells you which architecture the kernel is compiled for | 06:58 |
| Paddy_NI | Kimmen: ah handy to know | 06:58 |
| Kimmen | kdog: should be amd64 for 64-bit support | 06:58 |
| cheshire_fox | well, that didn't work | 06:59 |

| icedtea | jiltdil: sure, sorry. What type of filesystem are you mountijng? | 06:59 |
| Kimmen | kdog: that's a 32-bit kernel. 64 bit has x86_64 | 07:00 |

| icedtea | jiltdil: where are you mounting it? | 07:00 |
| venkatesh | icedtea: My question exactly is in x86 we can use LIDS to access io ports and io mem directly from user space , like that there is anything like that or can we use the same LIDS in ARM also. | 07:01 |
| jiltdil | icedtea:/media/Data | 07:01 |
| cheshire_fox | Paddy_NI: Hmm, if I read the log of jockey, it see that the sta driver can not be installed because the wl module doesn't exist on my system | 07:01 |
| ohsix | cheshire_fox: wl is in bcmwl-kernel-source | 07:01 |
| ohsix | it should be trying to install it | 07:01 |
| Paddy_NI | cheshire_fox: hmm.. I wonder if the dell dkms module might have anything to do with it | 07:01 |
| kdog | Kimmen: but the package I have installed is linux-image-2.6.35-28-generic which description states "2.6.35 on x86/x86_64 | 07:02 |
| benzaldehyde | so how do i play youtube videos on powerpc, i tried flash but it does not support my architecture. also tried gnash and swfdec plugins but no video, also i got no dvd playback even though i tried restricted extras and a some other junk, vlc etc | 07:02 |

| Guest67596 | I got little problems like not being able to move around tabs in firefox and other such issues that did not exist under XP, how do I know if the problem is that of ubuntu, or the various programs etc? | 07:02 |
| cheshire_fox | Paddy_NI: the b43 driver installs fine. Except for the fact that the network applet for gnome says that my wireless is disabled. | 07:02 |
| Paddy_NI | benzaldehyde: add the medibuntu repository and install non-free-codecs | 07:03 |
| Paddy_NI | benzaldehyde: you may also need dvdcss2 | 07:03 |
| venkatesh | ohsix: My question exactly is in x86 we can use LIDS to access io ports and io mem directly from user space , like that there is anything like that or can we use the same LIDS in ARM also. | 07:03 |
| icedtea | jiltdil: you would add a line to /etc/fstab as root: UUID=0b8c94cb-6b87-4887-9350-38b448fd7e17 /media/Data ext4 defaults 0 0 | 07:03 |
| ohsix | benzaldehyde: theres a script to install them in libdvdread4, dpkg -L libdvdread4 will get you the name of it | 07:03 |
| benzaldehyde | Guest67596: move around tabs, ctrl+shift | 07:03 |
| Paddy_NI | cheshire_fox: did you install firmware-b43-lpphy-installer | 07:03 |
| jiltdil | icedtea:ok but why we are using root | 07:03 |
| Kimmen | kdog: the generic package installs the kernel that is current for your system, i.e. it installs 32.bit for 32-bit systems and 64-bit for 64-bit systems. Some1 correct me if I'm wrong | 07:03 |
| Guest67596 | . | 07:04 |
| cheshire_fox | Paddy_NI: no, but I'll do so now | 07:04 |
| pylix | say you've purchased a larger Hardrive; is there a way to move you ubuntu OS to this drive? | 07:04 |
| cheshire_fox | it's already installed -_- | 07:04 |
| pylix | your* | 07:04 |
| jiltdil | icedtea:should i also add root to it or just go through root | 07:04 |
| cheshire_fox | that... is awesome | 07:04 |
| Paddy_NI | hmm.. perhaps the module is blacklisted or is just not loaded | 07:04 |
| Kimmen | kdog: I think you have to re-install with 64-bit. There are ways to switch from 32 to 64 bit but what I've read it's not recommended | 07:04 |
| Guest67596 | benzaldehyde What is suppose to happen when you press ctrl shift? | 07:05 |
| icedtea | jiltdil: as long as the kernel is compiled with support for that you should be able to access through /dev as well | 07:05 |
| Kimmen | pylix: http://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/8225-clone-your-ubuntu-installation-onto-a-new-hard-disk | 07:05 |
| jiltdil | icedtea: should i also add root to it in /etc/fstab or just go to add via root | 07:06 |
| kdog | Kimmen: After I got the base install done I went into the system monitor and saw 8Gb of RAM with only a sliver used. So I know this install has seen it. | 07:06 |
| icedtea | jiltdil: via root, you won't be able to write the file unless you use sudo or something similiar | 07:06 |
| jiltdil | icedtea: i have to add whole of it root: UUID=0b8c94cb-6b87-4887-9350-38b448fd7e17 /media/Data ext4 defaults 0 0 | 07:06 |
| cvam | anybody tell me whether 1 gb ram is enough for ubuntu 10.10 for a good performance | 07:06 |
| Paddy_NI | cvam: yes | 07:06 |
| kdog | Kimmen: I then used dpkg --set-selections to install the same packages I had on my other laptop. Maybe that's where things went awry. | 07:07 |
| Kimmen | kdog: strange. Perhaps you have a new kernel image installed that somehow is 32-bit and the previous was 64-bit | 07:07 |
| ohsix | cvam: i do ok on my netbook with 1g | 07:07 |
| icedtea | venkatesh: as long as the kernel is compiled with support for that you should be able to access it that way | 07:07 |
| cvam | Paddy_NI:But when I launch an application it takes time to run | 07:07 |
| cheshire_fox | Paddy_NI: I'm fully removing all modules/drivers and anything related to bc | 07:08 |
| Paddy_NI | cvam: not much | 07:08 |
| kdog | Kimmen: When I lost the gui, I also lost the grub menu on boot. How do I get that back so I can boot into a previous kernel? | 07:08 |
| Paddy_NI | cheshire_fox: determination man.. YES | 07:08 |
| cheshire_fox | Paddy_NI: I not a man ;-) | 07:08 |
| cheshire_fox | i am* | 07:08 |
| benzaldehyde | i don't know what i am looking at with dpkg -L libdvdread4 | 07:08 |
| Paddy_NI | cheshire_fox: lol | 07:08 |
| Paddy_NI | sorry | 07:08 |
| Guest67596 | benzaldehyde What is suppose to happen when you press ctrl shift? | 07:09 |
| ohsix | cheshire_fox: you'll still have the disconnection/"notworking after a while"-ness if you don't use the STA driver D: | 07:09 |
| Kimmen | kdog: if you hold down shift key when booting you can't access grub? | 07:09 |
| cheshire_fox | ohsix: I don't even have any working wifi card right now | 07:09 |
| benzaldehyde | Guest67596: it is the same as alt+tab but instead of switching between windows of different programs ctrl+shift switches between tabs of firefox | 07:09 |
| ohsix | ya i know | 07:09 |
| ohsix | just saying | 07:10 |
| kdog | Kimmen: Didn't know that trick. I'll give it a try. brb. | 07:10 |
| benzaldehyde | ohsix: i don't know what i am looking at with dpkg -L libdvdread4 | 07:10 |
| cheshire_fox | ohsix: I use to use the STA driver, then suddenly it just stopped working/uninstalled itself | 07:10 |
| Guest67596 | benzaldehyde I don't want to switch between tabs, I can do that by clicking on them, I want to be able to drag them around and change their order | 07:10 |
| ohsix | benzaldehyde: /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh | 07:10 |

| Kimmen | kdog: =( if you run "dpkg --get-selections | grep linux-image" | 07:12 |
| Abhijit | zeeshan313, why dont you use teeamviewr only? | 07:13 |
| Kimmen | kdog: do you have another image installed? | 07:13 |
| kdog | Kimmen: the bootup is different. Usually there is the Ubuntu logo and the four dots below. Now I get text that says "Ubuntu 10.10" and four text-like dots below. Maybe a frame buffer issue? | 07:13 |
| icedtea | plouffe: I think ubuntu has a package called clone2fs, which can clone a filesystem, kinda like ghost | 07:13 |
| cheshire_fox | yay, I fixed it! | 07:13 |
| Paddy_NI | cheshire_fox: :D | 07:13 |
| plouffe | icedtea, thx, will look into it | 07:13 |
| kdog | Kimmen: I have 2.6.35-22 27 and 28 installed | 07:14 |
| ohsix | kdog: sounds like kms is disabled | 07:14 |
| icedtea | plouffe: there's also a utility called 'dd' but that will copy the entire contents, even space on your hard drive that is not used | 07:14 |
| Kimmen | kdog: sounds like more than just framebuffer issue =/ | 07:14 |
| durpa | how do i make a package out of something i compile from source? | 07:14 |
| kdog | ohsix: OK. Let me look into that. | 07:15 |
| durpa | so that i can have specific configure options but be able to remove it later through package manager? | 07:15 |
| Guest67596 | benzaldehyde I don't want to switch between tabs, I can do that by clicking on them, I want to be able to drag them around and change their order | 07:15 |
| cheshire_fox | Paddy_NI: I have no idea what went wrong and I have no idea how this fixed it, but I ended up hard disabling it then disabling networking all together then re-enabling networking. Now it works. I swear, sometimes ubuntu/w gnome is as weird as windows | 07:15 |

| soreau | hipitihop: You want it to show 'AP' in the 'Supported interface modes' list | 07:32 |
| soreau | hipitihop: If it doesn't, your card may not be capable of master mode | 07:32 |
| hipitihop | soreau, installed, looking... | 07:32 |
| kdog | Kimmen: The shift key didn't work. Maybe I shouldn't hold it down during the mac blue screen and wait for the linux boot. | 07:33 |
| Softdroid | How can I remove all alsa drivers from my computer? | 07:33 |
| beautifulmind | icedtea: ahh.. that's it | 07:33 |
| beautifulmind | thanks a million | 07:33 |
| icedtea | beautifulmind: anytime! :D | 07:33 |
| beautifulmind | :) | 07:33 |
| Kimmen | kdog: press and hold shift after POST =) | 07:33 |
| hipitihop | soreau, Supported interface modes: * IBSS, * managed, * monitor ... guess that's not promising | 07:34 |
| soreau | hipitihop: what card and driver are you using? | 07:34 |
| kdog | Kimmen: is there a POST with EFI? :-) I got it this time. trying 27. | 07:35 |
| kdog | Kimmen: arggh. Resolution is fine but still no 8Gb joy :-/ | 07:36 |
| Kimmen | kdog: I think there's a POST but really short perhaps? You can try and install: "sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic-pae" | 07:36 |
| soreau | hipitihop: This page will show more info https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/MasterMode | 07:37 |
| soreau | I have to go | 07:37 |
| icedtea | kdog: are you running the 64bit distro? | 07:37 |
| hipitihop | soreau, not sure will have to try and list it I guess, it is built in on an Acer Aspire 5630 but I guess they can have varied cards, using wicd with wext | 07:37 |
| Kimmen | kdog: that image enables pae (up to 64gb ram on 32 bit systems) | 07:37 |
| ohsix | hipitihop: ibss is ad-hoc, and networkmanager can do that for you; some things can't connect to ad-hoc connections, but it's handy | 07:37 |
| Kimmen | I'm not sure where you were at before the madness began =P | 07:37 |
| kdog | Kimmen: I have the -28 pae but it is in the 'rc' state. | 07:38 |
| Kimmen | kdog: try to reinstall a stable pae kernel | 07:38 |
| kdog | icedtea: I'm not sure anymore :-P. | 07:38 |
| kdog | Kimmen: OK. | 07:39 |
| Softdroid | Is it possible to uninstall the alsa driver on Ubuntu? | 07:40 |
| ohsix | Softdroid: you can blacklist them so it isn't loaded; but why would you want to do that?> | 07:41 |
| kdog | icedtea: is there a 686-64 iso of maverick. when I d/l, the only 64bit I saw was the amd version | 07:41 |
| ohsix | kdog: amd64 is the arch name, it works on intel and amd | 07:41 |
| Softdroid | ohsix: It was not installed by the system, I have installed the alsa drivers. I have problem with my sound | 07:41 |
| kdog | ohsix: well crap. I sure don't want to reinstall now :-/ | 07:42 |
| kdog | ohsix: maybe over the weekend. This install was a PITA! | 07:42 |
| ohsix | hhuuhuh | 07:42 |
| ohsix | i don't know if theres a +mac version for amd64 | 07:42 |
| hipitihop | soreau, ok card is .. Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02) | 07:43 |
| Softdroid | ohsix: How can I blacklist the alsa drivers? | 07:43 |
| ohsix | Softdroid: why do you want to | 07:44 |
| Softdroid | ohsix: I have pulse driver installed in the system too. The blacklist thing was the one you recommended above | 07:44 |
| Kimmen | correct me if I'm wrong but isn't alsa the main sound system to recognize and enable sound in ubuntu? | 07:45 |
| Kimmen | pulse is just a sound server? | 07:45 |
| ohsix | Softdroid: pulseaudio isn't a sound driver, it uses alsa | 07:45 |
| kdog | Kimmen: ohsix: LOL, get this, it booted into -28-pae and I've got my 8Gb RAM now, but my resolution is wonky again. | 07:45 |
| jonsaint | hi all. anyone know when the next ubuntu is due for release? i know its april but dont know when april! | 07:45 |
| hipitihop | soreau, ohsix, so should I contemplate runnning out and grabbing a usb wifi dongle which supports master ? | 07:45 |
| Softdroid | ohsix: What is the pulseaudio then? | 07:45 |
| rypervenche | Is it possible to copy all of the folders from my home directory (but none of the files inside) and send them to another computer? I basically want to sync the folders from one computer with another, but have them all empty. | 07:45 |
| ohsix | hipitihop: sure, slim pickings, i have one as well for that | 07:46 |
| Kimmen | kdog: try one more reboot, sometimes my system only works normally at the second boot for a new kernel | 07:46 |
| ohsix | Softdroid: its something that makes audio nice, theres a plugin in alsa that will redirect alsa programs to pulse, but it still ends up making sound with alsa | 07:47 |
| kdog | Kimmen: I was ahead of you this time. I'll do a third just to be sure. | 07:47 |
| Softdroid | ohsix: Ok, I didn't know that. Thanks for the info | 07:48 |
| kdog | Kimmen: nope. | 07:48 |

| jguzikowski | Hey guys, I have Ubuntu installed either through Wubi or just on a seperate partition from my Windows installation...I want to try out Jolicloud though, is there anyway I can 'install over' the Ubuntu partition? | 07:49 |
| jonsaint | when is the next version of ubuntu out? i know its april but not sure when april! | 07:50 |
| hipitihop | ohsix, slim pickings means hard to get, hmm ... I could run out and grab a wireless router but then I have no idea how this other device does it's session login authentication, I know it was via a browser, sounds a bit hit and miss | 07:50 |
| kdog | Kimmen: I went to the monitors app to adjust and it pointed me to reconfiguring the nvidia and now I'm good. I'll try a reboot just to be sure. | 07:51 |
| Kimmen | kdog: nice, I hope you don't run in to more problems. Make a backup of everything just in case ;) | 07:52 |
| hipitihop | jonsaint, try ubuntu+1 channel | 07:52 |
| jonsaint | hipitihop, cheers, il give it a try | 07:52 |
| kdog | Kimmen: Alright. It's all working. | 07:52 |
| Kimmen | kdog: swell =) | 07:53 |
| kdog | Kimmen: I still miss the cool Ubuntu boot up graphic, but I can live with it until the Narwahl | 07:53 |
| Kimmen | kdog: that's a problem with plymouth and nvidia drivers, you can try searching the forum for answers, don't remember how to fix =/ | 07:53 |
| kdog | Kimmen: thanks so much for your help!! and ohsix too!!! That's enough for me tonight. | 07:54 |

| ohsix | cl3tUs: that .wine dir is called a prefix | 08:21 |
| cl3tUs | ahh. Okay ohsix | 08:21 |

| cl3tUs | ohsix, I concur. | 08:22 |
| cl3tUs | Many evil people in the world with ill intent. I am not one of them. | 08:22 |
| ohsix | you can share directories in a prefix, but there are lots of parts that you can't share | 08:22 |
| ohsix | doesn't matter if you're evil or not | 08:22 |
| cl3tUs | I concur. | 08:23 |

| simar | ohsix, thanks a lot.. | 08:48 |
| simar | brandonc503, you can dual boot ubuntu and windows or install ubuntu in virtula inside windows as well | 08:48 |
| brandonc503 | would it be best to have windows 100% of drive, then run ubuntu from within and install on remaining c space? or put ubuntu on seperate partition? | 08:49 |
| Mediarocker | I dual booted for a while... till a bad burn ate my partions. | 08:49 |
| Mediarocker | it wasn't that bad | 08:49 |
| Mediarocker | it got tiring however. | 08:49 |
| simar | brandonc503, no, you have to put ubuntu necessarily on a separate partition.. | 08:50 |
| brandonc503 | i had installed win on 100% and then put ubuntu on empty space, but then i had to reinstall windows ( for other reasons) and then it would jump into windows on boot and give me no os selection.... | 08:50 |
| simar | brandonc503, if you want to dual boot windows and ubuntu | 08:50 |
| ubntu | jj | 08:50 |
| ubntu | هاي | 08:50 |
| Mediarocker | You need to setup two different partitions. Install windows first, the install linux and leave space for the swapfile and grub. | 08:50 |
| ubntu | كيفك | 08:50 |

| Mediarocker | ferengee, I got lazy and just wiped it off. | 08:53 |

| Mediarocker | XD | 08:54 |
| tdn | How do I install Ubuntu on a MacBook Pro? I cannot get it to boot the USB stick with Ubuntu CD on it. | 08:54 |
| Mediarocker | I got sick of having to repair it whenever it broke. | 08:54 |
| Mediarocker | tdn, you should be able to install Ubuntu off of your live disk. | 08:55 |
| Blinkiz | Hi. I would like to index my files in /Documents/ folder to be able to search for keywords inside mainly pdf and OpenOffice files. What program should I use to do this? | 08:55 |

| naali--- | Danielcg25, =) | 08:57 |
| Blinkiz | brandonc503, Oh.. I do not have a advanced button or page. | 08:57 |
| brandonc503 | if i run ubuntu install from within windows, only gives me option for c: not my second partition of d:.. do i have to do it to c if installing within windows? | 08:57 |
| naali--- | theres a place for both os | 08:57 |
| mtlife | windows is not that bad, its just commercialized | 08:57 |
| Jordan_U | tdn: If at all possible use a CD (Mac's BIOS implementations are buggy when it comes to booting from USB). | 08:57 |
| ferengee | Danielcg25, where I live we have to separate the garbage | 08:58 |
| Danielcg25 | ferengee: Don't even recycle it xD | 08:58 |
| Jordan_U | brandonc503: Yes. Even if the installer let you do it it would be a bad idea and is currently not at all supported. | 08:58 |
| Jordan_U | brandonc503: I recommend doing a normal (not within Windows) install. | 08:58 |
| brandonc503 | cant cds give me errors | 08:59 |
| brandonc503 | the desktop and the alternative installs on cd | 08:59 |
| tdn | Mediarocker, I cannot boot the live-cd. | 08:59 |
| Jordan_U | brandonc503: Do you have a flash drive you can use? | 08:59 |
| YankDownUnder | Does anyone believe in cleaning CD/DVD drives anymore? | 09:00 |
| tdn | Mediarocker, I have put the livecd on a usb drive with unetbootin, but the mac does not boot on it. | 09:00 |
| tdn | Danielcg25, no errors. Just booting Mac OS X. | 09:00 |
| ohsix | YankDownUnder: more like throwing them out | 09:00 |
| Blinkiz | Hi. I would like to index my files in /Documents/ folder to be able to search for keywords inside mainly pdf and OpenOffice files. What program should I use to do this? I have heard about Beagle but it does not exist in the repository any more | 09:00 |
| Jordan_U | tdn: Apple's BIOS implementation is buggy. This is a known problem. | 09:00 |
| tdn | Jordan_U, ok, but booting from a normal cdrom should work? I was told that this would not work though. | 09:01 |
| bs_ | how can we run the windows programm by wine ???process??? | 09:01 |
| Danielcg25 | tdn: You have to press a key during boot. I don't have a Mac, so google what that key is ;-) | 09:01 |
| ohsix | tdn: it boots efi volumes, not x86 legacy volumes | 09:01 |
| tdn | Jordan_U, this is the brand new mac book pro. Does it require natty to work? Or will maverick work on it? | 09:01 |
| Danielcg25 | tdn: You have to hold a certain key while booting. | 09:02 |
| Jordan_U | tdn: Maverick should work (though how well individual pieces of hardware are supported I don't know). | 09:03 |
| cvam | hey anybody knows where totem movie player save the buffered videos from internet | 09:03 |
| Jordan_U | tdn: Are you trying to install 32 bit or 64 bit Ubuntu? | 09:03 |
| ohsix | cvam: it doesn't buffer them on disk | 09:03 |
| ohsix | cvam: the browser might | 09:03 |
| ohsix | but you wouldn't be able to just copy the file | 09:04 |
| cvam | ok then how can I download the videos from internet | 09:04 |
| rcconf | cvam: which videos? | 09:04 |
| bs_ | ubbuto,how can we run windows programm through wine???what is the process??? | 09:04 |
| cvam | *.mov files | 09:04 |
| naali--- | just "save as"? | 09:05 |
| llutz_ | bs_: wine <file.exe> | 09:05 |
| rcconf | cvam: from apple trailers? | 09:05 |
| tdn | Jordan_U, preferably 64 bit. Is there any reason to use 32 bit when I have a i7 processor? | 09:05 |
| cvam | rcconf: no from here http://www.rkm.com.au/animations.html | 09:06 |
| Jordan_U | tdn: This iso should work (when burned to a real CD): http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/10.10/release/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-amd64+mac.iso If you want the torrent link or the alternate or other install CDs look for the '+mac' versions @ http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/10.10/release/ . | 09:06 |
| tdn | Jordan_U, so there is a specific mac iso? I could not find this via ubuntu.com. | 09:06 |
| ohsix | Jordan_U: i take issue with you calling it buggy, a hammer isn't bread; the hammer isn't buggy if you can't eat it | 09:06 |
| rcconf | cvam: those are flash videos | 09:07 |
| Jordan_U | tdn: Only the 64 bit Ubuntu images have EFI support, this ironically *prevents* them from booting properly on macs due to further bugs in Apple's firmware. The +mac is identical to the normal 64 bit image, but with EFI support *removed*. | 09:07 |
| ohsix | "bugs" | 09:07 |
| tdn | Jordan_U, ok. | 09:08 |
| cvam | is there any ways to save those flash files | 09:08 |
| montezuma | hello, i have a problem with nm-applet. it is running, but no icon is displayed. it is not an issue of a crashed notification area, it looks the same with all themes. how do i fix this? or can I connect to 3g internet without nm-applet? | 09:08 |
| Jordan_U | ohsix: This is not just different, it's broken. Apple's BIOS implementation cannot boot from USB. | 09:08 |
| royale1223 | I cant find wireless internet connection in network-applet. How do I fix it? | 09:08 |
| ohsix | Jordan_U: you know that if an apple mac is the only implimentation of an apple mac, how it works is defined by the one vendor | 09:08 |
| Kimmen | tdn: no reason not to run 64 bit | 09:08 |
| ohsix | Jordan_U: that's not a bug | 09:08 |
| tdn | Kimmen, ok. | 09:08 |
| bp0 | how can I install the 32bit nouveau libs on ubuntu amd64? | 09:08 |
| ohsix | Jordan_U: that's "can't boot from usb", but it can | 09:08 |
| tdn | Jordan_U, how do I find that mac iso from ubuntu.com download section? | 09:08 |
| rcconf | royale1223: is the wireless driver working? | 09:08 |
| Jordan_U | tdn: It's not linked from the normal downloads page. | 09:09 |

| tdn | Jordan_U, why not? Shouldnt it be? | 09:09 |
| rcconf | royale1223: if wlan0 shows up it's good | 09:09 |
| brandonc503 | gregnotcraig: i got a thumb drive yes | 09:09 |
| ohsix | Jordan_U: it can't boot certain types of volumes, but it's not a "PC", so you can't assume pc-things are going to be literally transferrable as an experience, it's not a bug | 09:09 |
| brandonc503 | or flash drive . what its called | 09:09 |
| royale1223 | rcconf: its actually mobile broadband | 09:09 |
| llutz_ | ohsix: then its not a bug, its broken by design | 09:10 |
| Jordan_U | tdn: I don't know. It probably should be. If you file a bug report against the Ubuntu website they may add it (especially since they already have mac specific instructions). | 09:10 |
| rcconf | royale1223: doesnt matter, maybe ubuntu is not even recognizing it | 09:10 |
| ohsix | llutz_: a hammer isn't broke because it is not bread | 09:10 |
| rcconf | .. | 09:10 |

| rcconf | Kimmen: if he sets www-data writable for anyone I can change the files on his apache server? | 10:33 |
| Kimmen | rcconf: what he meant was: when a user connects to the site, which unix user is used on the local system to access files? | 10:33 |
| rcconf | im just a visitor | 10:33 |
| Kimmen | yes | 10:33 |

| keyUp | i never changed anything | 12:02 |
| keyUp | except i deleted eth connection | 12:03 |
| keyUp | but now is made again | 12:03 |
| ohsix | if you have a static ip with a bridge, you still use dhcp | 12:03 |
| keyUp | ok | 12:03 |
| Kimmen | keyUp: do as I said above, connect your PC to your router with the ethernet cable, paste the output of ifconfig on pastebin | 12:03 |
| keyUp | ill be back t opaste route -n | 12:03 |

| keyUp | Kimmen, are you ure? | 12:15 |
| keyUp | sure* | 12:15 |
| ohsix | Kimmen: remember the modem is a bridge, theres a network in the middle | 12:15 |
| keyUp | maybe its modem driver problem? | 12:15 |
| Kimmen | ohsix: you only get errors on the layer2 link | 12:16 |
| keyUp | I have similar modem from my previous ISP i will try with that | 12:16 |
| Kimmen | ohsix: that is between PC and modem | 12:16 |
| maxsaniel | como entro na lingua português brasil?? | 12:16 |
| Kimmen | between PC and router the link was fine | 12:16 |
| keyUp | THANKS for your time big time guys | 12:16 |

| keyUp | im really stuck here :S | 12:16 |
| keyUp | ok | 12:16 |
| keyUp | I will try previous modem too to see if its fine with it | 12:16 |
| ohsix | what is actually failing, pinging the router? | 12:16 |
| keyUp | but what you suggest else? | 12:16 |
| Kimmen | keyUp: try a crossover cable, if you already have a crossover cable try a non-crossover | 12:17 |
| ohsix | er | 12:17 |
| ohsix | the modem | 12:17 |
| keyUp | what is crossover cable? :S | 12:17 |

| brown12 | I've got a question about the way that Ubuntu has mounted my hard drive. The system is a dual-boot Windows with a shared NTFS drive and separate partitions for the / and /home directories. | 12:18 |

| Kimmen | ohsix: but the errors in ifconfig suggests that there's a layer2 problem, a problem on the physical link | 12:18 |
| beniwtv | nettezzaumana: good :) | 12:18 |
| ohsix | keyUp: your original problem isn't in my buffer, if you could restate ... | 12:18 |

| eveningsky | {C9}t00lsh3d: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam | 12:19 |
| ohsix | brown12: you can change it by messing with udev but it's not something you want to do | 12:20 |
| keyUp | jeetu, ?? | 12:20 |
| dirkG | i'm sorry this is nothing to do with ubuntu (i hope someone can steer me to the correct channel) but i'm having trouble with an 'unmountable' xp drive, and i'm looking at data recovery as my only (last-) resort... if i can get some help here or steered in the right direction, that'd be amazing | 12:20 |
| brown12 | OK. Sometimes on boot, with an eternal hard drive plugged in, the USB drive steals /sda1 from the hard drive and that messes up all the mount points. Files of the shared NTFS become unavailable. | 12:20 |
| brown12 | Is there a way to specify the priority of the SATA over the USB drive? | 12:20 |
| brown12 | Thanks @ohsix | 12:20 |
| ohsix | dirkG: ntfs-3g will refuse to mount it if its in a bad enough state for windows needing to fix it | 12:20 |
| ohsix | brown12: use UUIDs instead of device names | 12:21 |
| eveningsky | jeetu: are you sure you really need to install office? openoffice.org is quite good. | 12:21 |
| stemann | Can someone help me with ALSA? I have two installations of 10.04 - one (desktop) with sound, one (mini) without sound. Tried following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting | 12:21 |
| {C9}t00lsh3d | When my system starts up it shows an error but goes away to fast to read is there a log I can find this error in ? | 12:21 |
| jeetu | yeah but support to msoffice not opnoffice | 12:21 |
| Kimmen | {C9}t00lsh3d: syslog, dmesg | 12:22 |
| brown12 | Where can I read up on UUIDs? I have configured everything via Ubuntu guis, e.g., disk tool and NTFS configuration tool. | 12:22 |
| beniwtv | dirkG: I have heard good things about Redo: http://redobackup.org/. maybe it can mount it? | 12:22 |
| maxsaniel | /join #ubuntu-br | 12:22 |
| maxsaniel | /join #ubuntu-pt | 12:22 |
| eveningsky | jeetu: what do you need that openoffice doesn't have? | 12:22 |
| Kimmen | dirkG: I have used a prog called getdataback or ntfs getdataback or something like that | 12:22 |
| brown12 | Maybe I need to start from the beginning with fstab. | 12:23 |
| ohsix | brown12: i don't know about any ntfs configuration tool; it's probably the thing that broke it | 12:23 |
| brown12 | I'm just afraid to configure fstab without really understanding what I am doing. | 12:23 |
| ohsix | brown12: just look at fstab and see what it did, make it look like the rest | 12:23 |
| maxsaniel | /join #ubuntu-pt | 12:23 |

| dirkG | forgive my lack of irc knowledge... anyway yeah the drive looks to be pretty trashed... recovery console craps out, recovery reinstall just wants to reformat before reinstalling.... i've done data recovery on a reformatted drive before (i don't remember what software i used, that's another question) but i'm concerned about losing or corrupting data | 12:24 |
| ohsix | oh heh | 12:24 |
| ohsix | you mean with windows alone :O | 12:24 |
| safalis | I have a problem connecting to Windows PPTP VPN from Ubuntu 10.10, when I try to connect I get "LCP: timeout sending config requests " and does not connect to the VPN | 12:25 |
| dirkG | oh i've thrown several distros at it | 12:25 |
| ohsix | if you're concerned image the drive asap, then work with the image | 12:25 |
| dirkG | what would you recommend i use to image the drive | 12:25 |
| Zealous | has anyone used much of fast track the Web GUI loads and it does not bring up the console with green text for testing | 12:25 |

| dirkG | again, i'm sorry i know this isnt the right channel | 12:25 |
| {C9}t00lsh3d | As I said I was trying to test my webcam and this is clearly a problem | 12:25 |
| {C9}t00lsh3d | http://pastebin.com/dGuFDTSM | 12:25 |
| beniwtv | dirkG: dd can do it, but http://redobackup.org/ it supposed to be simpler | 12:26 |
| maxsaniel | exit | 12:26 |
| ohsix | dirkG: ddrescue or gddrescue | 12:26 |
| rcconf | maxsaniel: /quit | 12:26 |
| ohsix | the latter is nicer | 12:26 |
| Zealous | eeeewww winblows | 12:26 |
| dirkG | looking into it now | 12:26 |
| stianhj | When I open an image with nautilus, nautilus keeps keyboard focus, so when I go to Ctrl-W the image, it closes nautilus instead.. what's up with that? | 12:26 |
| {C9}t00lsh3d | :/ | 12:27 |
| dirkG | yeah dude windows sucks, but sometimes we have to work on other people's computers | 12:27 |
| beniwtv | {C9}t00lsh3d: Do you get any device nodes in /dev/? (/dev/video*) | 12:27 |
| ohsix | Zealous: opinions are rarely on topic | 12:28 |
| {C9}t00lsh3d | beniwtv /dev/video* <-- no such file or directory | 12:28 |
| tuxhack | join #xen | 12:29 |
| iceroot | stianhj: what should ctrl + w do there? normally ctrl + w is a global shortcut to close the current window | 12:29 |

| {C9}t00lsh3d | put a forward slash / | 12:30 |
| iceroot | machine_: you want to use the whole disc? | 12:30 |
| beniwtv | {C9}t00lsh3d: Probably the driver ubuntu has does not work with your camera then, try searching google with your camera model and the error in your log | 12:30 |
| ohsix | machine_: back up /home and /etc and any other important places; then reformat that partition | 12:30 |
| {C9}t00lsh3d | in mount location thing | 12:30 |

| {C9}t00lsh3d | beniwtv: okay thanks | 12:31 |
| machine_ | whats the difference between / and /home? | 12:31 |
| dirkG | am i reading right that gddrescue will create an image i can work against? or does it simply work against a precreated image? | 12:31 |
| iceroot | machine_: then tell the installer he should use the 10gb partition to build there /boot / /swap and so on | 12:31 |
| iceroot | machine_: /home is a subdirectory from / | 12:32 |
| === PicCard is now known as PicCard_Away | ||

| machine_ | if i used that i just ereased all my harddsik? | 12:32 |
| iceroot | machine_: best thing is to let the installer create a partition layout | 12:32 |
| machine_ | i had a partition layout before | 12:32 |

| Kimmen | ikonia: the modem is in bridged mode, i.e. no DHCP coming from it, keyUp gets DHCP address. He also gets excessive packet loss and errors on eth0 in ubuntu when connecting directly to modem. This is hardware problem | 13:42 |

| shaosin | ikonia it was running yesterday, but since i restarted PC, teamviewer is now off, i just need to know, how top execute it, via putty | 13:45 |
| Zealous | lol keyup | 13:45 |

| keyUp | ok | 13:46 |
| Zealous | as Abhijit saud just go team view to team view cut out putty all togeather that is what the program is for | 13:46 |
| Kimmen | really? then the modem can't be in bridged mode, or the management interface is on the internets and I should be able to access it | 13:46 |
| Abhijit | shaosin, oh okay. then i dont know. see the teamvier documentatioon at their website | 13:46 |

| ohsix | Kimmen: no, i don't, they're on the same segment | 13:53 |
| arand | steveyos: Usually it is simply a matter of clicking the disk in your file manager instead | 13:53 |

| ohsix | i have a def gw, and something on the way to the internet replying from 192 | 13:53 |

| edbian | steveyos: INstall from the DVD as opposed to what? (mounting windows has nothing to do with deleting it) | 13:56 |
| ohsix | Kimmen: no, there wouldn't | 13:56 |
| arand | steveyos: The host filesystem should be automonted and available in wubi as well... | 13:57 |
| crazypeg | i have noticed that windows sometimes has trouble starting after i have been using my usb ubuntu. Does anyone know how to prevent this? | 13:57 |
| van7hu | steveyos: more advaned,read mount command | 13:57 |
| steveyos | here's the mount command: http://pastebin.com/mb3V7dCj | 13:58 |
| ohsix | Kimmen: its a bridge, think of eth over atm, except its a cable modem, one side is the bridging segment and theres no reason to give any user facing resources to the management side; they get unrestricted snmp and can actually manage the device on that network without exposing it to the bridge side | 13:58 |
| ohsix | consequently, i love cable; a bridge allows many shenanigans | 13:59 |
| arand | steveyos: Your windows filesystem should be mounted on /host according to that | 13:59 |
| arand | steveyos: See if you can browse to it? | 13:59 |
| Kimmen | ohsix: explain to me how the traffic flows if your default route is on another subnet than your own? (I hope we're talking about default route == gateway) | 13:59 |
| edbian | steveyos: You can't just type 'mount' you have to tell it to mount 'this' 'here' Something like this: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt | 13:59 |
| dyd | hi all | 13:59 |
| arand | edbian: I requested it to se the current mount location. | 13:59 |
| steveyos | arand: where would it be? I don't see it anywhere | 14:00 |
| arand | edbian: Since the host fs is already mounted | 14:00 |
| edbian | arand: oops sorry | 14:00 |
| dyd | what is the /host/ubuntu/disks | 14:00 |
| dyd | ? | 14:00 |
| edbian | steveyos: ignore me | 14:00 |
| Armiya | any can help me | 14:00 |
| Kimmen | everything not on your subnet has to reach a gateway to be able to continue to another subnet | 14:00 |
| steveyos | edbian: ok :P | 14:00 |
| dyd | missed 1 part: root.disk | 14:00 |
| dyd | 19 gb file... what's that?? | 14:00 |
| ohsix | Kimmen: the gw gets the traffic since it doesn't match the local segment, it goes through the bridge, bridge replies on the cpe side as if you contacted the _internet_ at the 192 address, and returns traffic as such (no mac address and stuff) | 14:00 |
| arand | steveyos: Go to "filesystem" in the file browser and the go to "host" | 14:00 |
| Armiya | any can hl me | 14:00 |
| Abhijit | Armiya, ask with details in one line. | 14:01 |
| arand | steveyos: alternatively "cd /host" in the terminal | 14:01 |
| sar_ | like this : mkdir /windows/C , mount /dev/sda1 /windows/C | 14:01 |
| sar_ | good luck | 14:01 |
| steveyos | Guess what it's there, I never remember it being like that AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW | 14:02 |
| ohsix | Kimmen: its a fun trick anyone can do if they can inject frames into the network as a bridge can | 14:02 |
| Kimmen | ohsix: first modem I've encountered of that actually does this | 14:02 |
| benzaldehyde | steveyos: it was mounted all ready? | 14:02 |
| ohsix | i'm thinking of poisoning the gw and routing through yourself in particular | 14:02 |
| arand | steveyos: It is a common issue with using wubi I think, the mount point is not particularly obvious | 14:02 |
| Kimmen | all others: what comes in goes out | 14:02 |
| steveyos | Yeah it was already mounted. So the wubi does change it? Because yeah I never remember it being so oddly placed | 14:03 |
| ohsix | Kimmen: thats really bizarre cuz it's worked like that since cablelabs first certified hardware | 14:03 |
| ohsix | specifically, what goes in goes over atm in a private network | 14:03 |
| Kimmen | has to be because I've never had to involve myself in atm and cable traffic =) | 14:03 |
| ohsix | i see | 14:03 |
| ohsix | people hate on atm but i dig how it works | 14:04 |
| arand | steveyos: Yes, wubi does that specifically, if you did a plain dual-boot it wouldn't be automonted, but available to mount in /media/ using a single click in the file browser, where also it would show up in the lfthand list as a filesystem. | 14:04 |
| Kimmen | I still believe that keyUps problem is hw related =) | 14:04 |
| ohsix | or its analogue (which might actually be atm) behind the bridge, i think it is after the concentrator, but not between the modem and the concentrator | 14:05 |
| ohsix | Kimmen: its probably all it could be besides user error | 14:05 |
| ikonia | ohsix: Kimmen you may want to take this to #ubuntu-offtopic as it looks intersting | 14:05 |
| benzaldehyde | Kimmen: what was he experiencing | 14:05 |
| steveyos | arand: Yeahhhh that's right, I wish they woulda told me that.... I guess it's all good though since at least it works, I just gotta write down the location now haha | 14:05 |
| ohsix | ikonia: you always chime in when i'm done :P | 14:05 |
| Kimmen | ohsix: probably much to do with error 40 | 14:05 |
| ohsix | ikonia: i try hard to keep ot short, or somehwere else | 14:06 |
| steveyos | Thanks everyone I didn't even actually have a problem alright! | 14:06 |
| Kimmen | benzaldehyde: he couldn't access the internet when he connected his ubuntu laptop directly to his cable modem | 14:06 |
| Kimmen | 30-75% packet loss and excessive errors on eth0 | 14:06 |
| BluesKaj | hiyas | 14:07 |
| ohsix | Kimmen: as i mentioned it could be a negotiation problem too, but who knows; even he wasn't really interested | 14:08 |

| Zealous | hhmm this suxs downloaded a 64bit version of nessus and i can not install the 64bit version as it is AMD64 only while i have a i386 laptop, question is would the 32 bit i386 work just as well on the 64bit i386 laptop | 14:11 |
| ohsix | eamon: how much larger? | 14:11 |
| Kimmen | Zealous: AMD64 is for 64-bit processors, both intel and amd | 14:12 |
| ikonia | Zealous: you can't be running 64bit on a n i386 laptop | 14:12 |
| eamon | ohsix: I have 512 MB memory it's saying somewhere around 800 MB | 14:12 |
| Zealous | ikon i know the basics i just downloaded the wrong version being 64 bit laptop just relised the master computer is the AMD lol | 14:12 |
| === denny_ is now known as denny | ||
| ohsix | eamon: curious, what does free -m say? | 14:13 |
| ikonia | Zealous: ok, if you know the basics why are you asking about 64bit on an i386 laptop, you cannot run anything 64bit on an i386 laptop | 14:13 |
| ohsix | without qemu | 14:13 |
| Zealous | at least i am not asking how to install what i downloaded haha | 14:14 |
| benzaldehyde | ikonia: i think he was just curious whether the inverse is worth worrying about | 14:14 |
| eamon | ohsix: free -m says 498 MB and now top has fixed itself.... | 14:14 |

| ubottu | keltic_dave: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 14:15 |
| edbian | Zealous: 32 bit os works fine on 64 bit hardware. 64bit os does NOT work on 32 bit hardware | 14:15 |
| edbian | keltic_dave: yes | 14:16 |
| benzaldehyde | Zealous: i don't know. | 14:16 |

| Zealous | i am running backtrack 4 | 14:18 |
| Zealous | i am sure i will sort it | 14:18 |
| eamon | Zealous: thunderbird comes from the saem people that make firefox | 14:18 |
| ohsix | Zealous: "most" people use mutt, grandmas & normal people use evolution, or something like it | 14:18 |
| heart_hacker | join #fvfreeloaders | 14:18 |
| Zealous | eamon that sold me firefox FTW | 14:18 |
| ohsix | Zealous: just a heads up, backtrack isn't supported here | 14:18 |
| eamon | Zealous: FTW indeed | 14:18 |
| eamon | !backtrack | 14:19 |
| ubottu | There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information.

| keltic_dave | I'll just put it in one second | 14:19 |
| edbian | keltic_dave: The suspense is killing me | 14:19 |
| Zealous | i am not asking about it, i had it on the usb stick so i figured screw windows i am replacing you with a distro | 14:19 |
| keltic_dave | you want me to copy and paste it in here | 14:20 |
| keltic_dave | or is there a specific one you are wanting me to find | 14:20 |
| edbian | keltic_dave: no, use pastebin (or just briefly describe it) www.pastebin.ubuntu.com | 14:20 |
| edbian | keltic_dave: A specific one? I'm trying to see the output of one command. sudo iwlist scan | 14:20 |
| edbian | keltic_dave: Sorry, bad link. paste.ubuntu.com | 14:21 |
| benzaldehyde | Zealous: i use webmail. it's convenient. | 14:21 |
| ohsix | keltic_dave: even if the buttons don't work you can still see if the wifi is blocked with "sudo rfkill list" in a terminal | 14:21 |

| jayant | hello i am running ubuntu 10.10 and i use sakis3g to connect to internet. Empathy and pidgin are not able to use my internet. They say "no network connection" while i am using X-chat right now and it is working fine. Can somebody help me with that please. Thank You ! | 14:22 |
| keltic_dave | :P I did a restart and my wired connection worked just installed the additional driver for the wireless | 14:22 |

| wookienz | hi, if i drop a script inside cron.d dir, when does cron look ofr it and execute it? | 14:25 |

| chipmank | well that did'nt work :) | 14:26 |
| haqe17 | chipmank: lol, i think u outo change | 14:26 |
| jrib | wookienz: you don't drop scripts there. Why aren't you using crontab via the « crontab -e » command? | 14:26 |
| BluesKaj | chipmank, do that in the server textbox | 14:26 |
| chipmank | u guys were'nt supposed to see that | 14:26 |
| iceroot | wookienz: cron looks every minute in that dir if something is to do NOW | 14:26 |
| chipmank | have no server textbox | 14:26 |
| wookienz | jrib: old install of apt-mirror - windering if it still works! | 14:27 |
| benzaldehyde | chipmank: the eviler side of me wants to /msg NickServ ghost chipman theodore | 14:27 |
| BluesKaj | chipmank, in the freenoce textbox | 14:27 |
| benzaldehyde | chipmank: i won't though | 14:27 |
| BluesKaj | freenode | 14:27 |
| benzaldehyde | chipmank: just out of curiosity why theodore | 14:28 |
| edbian | benzaldehyde: baseball and passw0rd where already taken | 14:28 |
| jrib | wookienz: right, that makes sense... /etc/cron.d is the nice place for packages to place cron jobs. cron watches that directory for changes (see « man cron ») | 14:28 |
| chipmank | firstname is alvin | 14:28 |
| BluesKaj | alvin and the chipmunks ...we get it | 14:29 |
| jrib | choosing theodore as a password with username of chipmank doesn't seem very smart though... | 14:29 |
| wookienz | jrib: the cron job runs apt-mirror, should i be able to see the process running through ps aux? | 14:29 |
| jayant | empathy and pidgin cannot use my internet. Empathy says: "No Network Connection" and pidgin says "Waiting for network connection". somebody help please | 14:30 |
| benzaldehyde | jrib: it really doesn'y | 14:30 |
| benzaldehyde | *doesn't | 14:30 |
| BluesKaj | chip did you choose the freenode / server in the tree/tab , chipmank ? | 14:30 |
| jrib | wookienz: well if it's running, you would see it running. You could check for mail from cron too (you need an mta though) | 14:31 |
| edbian | chipmank is my word of the day today | 14:31 |
| ohsix | haqe17: if you're not having anyone logon locally, add the user to the audio group, but if people are logging on locally that will break things | 14:31 |
| haqe17 | ohsix: well i am having people log on locally... | 14:32 |
| ohsix | haqe17: then run something as the logged on user to play music :P or have their pulse server listen for connections and use PULSE_SERVER | 14:33 |
| wookienz | jrib: yes i see it is running now with two ssh windows open to check. looks like cron is not liking the script then, as cron wont run it, but m,anually invoking it does. | 14:33 |
| benzaldehyde | i think i've been disconnected | 14:38 |

| rohit64 | guys, i need to install the Terminal all the time as a root in my Maverick 10.10 | 14:58 |
| rohit64 | is here anybody know any one? | 14:59 |
| rohit64 | please let me know | 14:59 |
| benzaldehyde | rohit64: can you make a little more sense | 14:59 |
| zeld | my problem is that it's impossible to set or get the best screen configuration | 14:59 |
| zeld | i followed this wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 14:59 |
| magnushc | Should the beta be released now? | 14:59 |
| zeld | abnd i tried to add a newmode but it's not working | 14:59 |
| zeld | how can i try to reset all the screen etc?? | 15:00 |
| zeld | or reconfigure the monitor recognition? | 15:00 |
| zeld | also.... | 15:00 |
| rohit64 | benzaldehyde, I neet a console which would never ask me to enter root's password.. | 15:00 |
| chipmonk | beli have you checked for updated driver or previous version | 15:00 |
| iceroot | rohit64: you dont need that | 15:00 |
| rohit64 | iceroot, why? | 15:00 |
| benzaldehyde | rohit64: have you tried sudo su | 15:00 |
| chipmonk | have you worked with the xconfig.org file? | 15:00 |
| beli | chipmonk: i am using driver from repo...with the 10.04 driver it worked well | 15:01 |
| zeld | also if i tell the error to Xorg.0.log it says to me [drm] failed to open device | 15:01 |
| iceroot | rohit64: its a stupid ieda | 15:01 |
| zeld | but a device named /dev/fb0 | 15:01 |
| iceroot | rohit64: and not needed | 15:01 |
| zeld | :| | 15:01 |
| iceroot | benzaldehyde: sudo su is the wrong way | 15:01 |
| rohit64 | benzaldehyde, yepp but it should start with roots privileges | 15:01 |
| lacus | rohit64: sounds like you can add a NOPASSWD to your /etc/sudoers, i guess? | 15:01 |
| rohit64 | i know its risky but, i need it | 15:01 |
| zmbi | why? | 15:02 |
| chipmonk | hmm | 15:02 |

| BluesKaj | :) | 15:13 |
| Zealous | just use a cd key for a pwd they are secure haha | 15:14 |
| littlebobby | jrib: yeah well :-) my idea was to crack the old /etc/shadow-hash, but that is gone now. if I understand correctly, cracking the passphrase is impossible | 15:15 |
| littlebobby | the ecryptfs-passphrase I mean | 15:15 |

| ikke2 | ikke2 has changed 2 ubuntu-de | 15:24 |
| ines | hi | 15:24 |
| ohsix | Shyster: well, you need to try the one way function every time you check the password, that's the part that makes a rainbow table untenable | 15:24 |
| ohsix | since the salt would be in the table, but it REALLY IS random | 15:25 |
| ohsix | (or some computer-y approximation of random) | 15:25 |
| jrib | littlebobby: though if you have some idea about how your brother creates passwords I guess it could be feasible... I forgot a password once, tried to do a similar thing and had my computer running many nights. In the end I gave up, then one day a few weeks later I was cooking and the password jumped into my head.

| ines | i coudn't use the video conference | 15:27 |
| bin_bash | ohsix: Restore once I reformat | 15:27 |
| ohsix | cuz you can image the partition, use the fs' dump tool, or just tar it up | 15:28 |
| aeon-ltd | bin_bash: / including /home, i'd clone with something like clonezilla | 15:28 |
| bin_bash | aeon-ltd: I'm going to use dd | 15:28 |
| mu3en | bin_bash: partimage works well and doesn't make huge images, restores good to a same or larger aprtition later | 15:28 |
| ohsix | bin_bash: ah, then using the filesystems dump tool, then restoring it later might save you a lot of time | 15:28 |
| bin_bash | ohsix: filesystems dump tool? | 15:28 |
| ohsix | bin_bash: like dumpe2fs or xfsdump | 15:29 |
| mu3en | can easily shuffle osx/win/multi-linux-distros around drives and do boot sector backups | 15:29 |

| Braber01 | @Zealous Tell me about it | 16:09 |
| Zealous | idk what's the problem with it | 16:09 |
| AceKing | jrib, how do I get to the grub menu? | 16:09 |
| llutz | eamon: could be, basic difference is, that scp uses ssh for authentication and sftp has own mechanisms to authenticate (still using ssh) | 16:09 |
| jrib | AceKing: hold "shift" during boot | 16:09 |
| AceKing | jrib, ok thanks | 16:09 |
| ayecee | llutz: no, they both use ssh for authentication | 16:09 |
| ayecee | scp is intended to work like rcp, while sftp is intended to work like sftp. | 16:10 |
| ayecee | err.. sftp like ftp | 16:10 |
| Pumpkin- | sftp supports a bunch of stuff scp doesn't. Like listing the contents of a directory, viewing/changing permissions, resuming partially completed transfers and friends | 16:10 |

| compdoc | jbwiv_, was it an upgrade or a fresh install? | 16:18 |
| ohsix | jbwiv_: does the mouse cursor still move when its frozen? | 16:18 |
| AceKing | jrib, this is the first time I'm having an install problem | 16:18 |
| jbwiv_ | ohsix, no, nothing | 16:19 |
| jbwiv_ | compdoc, fresh install, but months ago | 16:19 |
| compdoc | sounds like hardware | 16:19 |
| jbwiv_ | I'm wondering if it's compiz | 16:19 |
| ohsix | jbwiv_: also is it an intel or nvidia card; what app typically does it, what DE are you using, and does all disk activity stop with the freeze | 16:19 |
| Stava | milamber, sudo fdisk -l did something, it will not list /dev/sdb1 but nothing else | 16:19 |
| vishnu | any one interested in Gnu Cash | 16:19 |
| Stava | milamber, it will list sdb1* | 16:19 |
| compdoc | I like the Old Cash | 16:20 |
| milamber | Stava: that command will list the hard drives. can you pastebin it? | 16:20 |
| AceKing | jrib, I thought there may have been a conflict with the mobo and Ubuntu. | 16:20 |
| terry | vishnu: I'm interested. | 16:20 |
| ohsix | Stava: you know you can just run palimpsest, System -> Administration -> Disk Utility | 16:20 |
| jbwiv_ | ohsix, nvidia card, random apps (last one was evince), not sure what DE is, and the first time today, disk activity continued but I couldn't get any repsonse from the box. The second lockup, disk activity stopped | 16:20 |
| ohsix | jbwiv_: ah ok, its nothing that i had in mind | 16:21 |
| Stava | ohsix, this is server edition | 16:21 |
| Stava | milamber, http://pastie.org/1739790 | 16:21 |
| ohsix | jbwiv_: was your caps lock key blinking when the disk activity stopped? | 16:21 |
| ohsix | or rather, its light | 16:21 |
| milamber | Stava: so sdb1 is the new hd? | 16:21 |
| jbwiv_ | ohsix, I did not notice that...but now that a look at it, this damned logitech wave keyboard has no capslock light!?! | 16:21 |
| Stava | milamber, im pretty sure | 16:21 |
| ohsix | Stava: theres "parted" too | 16:22 |
| jacktheripper | a filesystem option (silent in NTFS-3G) is on by default and has no value. How can I disable this ? | 16:22 |
| ohsix | jbwiv_: ah it probably wouldn't blink anyways | 16:22 |
| jbwiv_ | in general, is there a way to limit the max resources a process can consume so that you can keep the machine responsive to user input? Let's say you have a runaway process that's grabbing gobs of memory, can you reserve a certain amount of memory that the process can't touch? | 16:22 |
| milamber | Stava: so make a folder: mkdir ~/newhd, then mount the hard drive: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 ~/newhd | 16:22 |
| Evan1 | Hi, How do I open a file with a space between two words in a terminal? | 16:23 |
| Stava | milamber, i'd like to mount it more permanently like on boot | 16:23 |
| ohsix | jbwiv_: but it probably is compiz related, if everything stops with the Big Freeze(TM) it might be a kernel panic and you pretty much have to narrow it down to the driver, then get support from nvidia | 16:23 |
| jrib | Evan1: file\ with\ space or 'file with space' | 16:23 |
| milamber | !fstab | stava | 16:23 |
| ubottu | stava: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 16:23 |
| ohsix | Evan1: quote the space with \ like File\ one, or use quotes | 16:23 |
| jbwiv_ | ohsix, ok. is there a more reliable brand of cards with linux these days, or is nvidia the way to go? | 16:24 |
| Evan1 | jrib: Thanks! | 16:24 |
| Stava | milamber, thanks, i guess i should look up a guide on formating drives | 16:24 |
| ohsix | jbwiv_: i dunno about reliability, the nvidia cards & drivers have been reliable, but it's a bit more nuanced on linux | 16:24 |
| ohsix | that is, the cards i've had | 16:24 |
| jbwiv_ | ohsix, ok, thanks | 16:25 |
| ohsix | jbwiv_: you can try looking at /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old after you reboot, there _might_ be something near the end, but it's very unlikely | 16:25 |
| ohsix | same goes for /var/log/messages and syslog; kernel messages get written there but for most types of kernel crashes they get lost | 16:26 |
| ohsix | if you have another computer you can verify during a crash if the computer is really dead by trying to log in with ssh | 16:26 |

| Taev | so.. how do I get Python-osmgpsmap 0.7 | 16:31 |
| milamber | Stava: personal preference. are you going to be doing anything with windows files? | 16:32 |
| Zealous | 29 of 42 updates :( i want ubunto NOW!!!! | 16:32 |
| Zealous | Death to Windows | 16:32 |
| terry | Taev: You should use the package manager. sudo apt-get install python-osmgpsmap | 16:32 |
| Stava | milamber, no, this is only storage | 16:32 |
| dyllan | for my browser, how can i tell it what application to use when clicking on a word document for example, im using chromium | 16:32 |
| Taev | and that uses a different directory than synaptic? | 16:32 |
| Stava | milamber, backups and ftp | 16:32 |
| Taev | i thought synaptic was a front end for apt-get? | 16:33 |
| damasceno | I'm using apt-cache to do a mirror in my local network. I made a package eclipse_1.0.deb, and i want to add that package to my mirror. How can I do that? | 16:33 |
| milamber | then ext4 should be fine. (esp if you ever plan on running anything from there in linux) | 16:33 |
| terry | Taev: Is that your ultimate goal, to install python-osmgpsmap? Or is that the dependency that some other app is asking for>? | 16:33 |
| Stava | milamber, great, so mkfs -t ext4 /dev/sdb1 will do? | 16:33 |

| unsub | a funny thing happened to me on natty today. I had a really bad screen freeze when using VLC on fullscreen and had to do a hard shutdown (im on a macbook5,1). When I logged back in gnome had lost all its setting and the files in ~/{Desktop,Documents,Downloads} have all vanished but files in ~/ are all still there. So I log in using xcfe and I have 2 Desktop folders, 2 Documents folders and 2 Download folders but all are empty. Its probably related to using | 16:40 |
| unsub | home folder encryption? | 16:40 |
| jrib | AceKing: try a different distribution. It really sounds like a hardware issue to me | 16:40 |

| compdoc | miniv, well, the drive insdie teh enclosure might be good - could be the usb interface or the external psu is bad. you might trying removing the drive from the case and install it directly in your computer | 16:40 |

| miniv | compdoc: unfortunately i only have a laptop at school with me. I wasn't sure if there were any utilities for trying to read from a (possibly) corrupted drive in linux, I figured my chances were better in ubuntu than windows | 16:41 |
| unsub | wtf Logan_? | 16:41 |
| gracz | How to know what Ubuntu window menager actualy use? | 16:41 |
| AceKing | jrib, for the hell of it I tried 11.04 Alpha 3. Did the same thing. I may try 10.04 | 16:41 |

| compdoc | miniv, it all depends on the problem - if its the drive itself, not much can be done. but you have to diagnose it, which is hard if you cant remove the drive and attach it to a computer | 16:43 |

| Taev | exactly milamber | 16:45 |
| compdoc | good luck | 16:45 |

| Taev | and the source file some one listed is giving me dependency hell | 16:45 |
| Taev | saying i need gtk-doc | 16:45 |
| milamber | Taev: sometimes building from source sucks. which is why the people here always* (for the most part) recommend the repos. a handy utility for installing from source is apt-file. it will let you search for a file and tell you what package it is in | 16:46 |

| Combatjuan | Is this just a problem with the silly package I made or do I need to set up some kind of dependency file in the personal repository? | 16:49 |
| gracz | terry: name of window menager | 16:49 |
| arand | linux: Entirely your decision, generally choose the LTS if you want to keep the same things for longer without upgrading. | 16:49 |
| terry | gracz: gnome | 16:49 |

| terry | gracz: gnome is the window manager | 16:50 |
| ayecee | extraymond: what happens when you try? | 16:51 |
| arand | kilian_: What kind of partition? Are you using the graphical gparted? | 16:51 |
| milamber | Combatjuan: pastebin /var/log/dpkg/status | 16:51 |
| Combatjuan | kilian_: man page on fdisk seems to indicate that if you want to resize partitions, use parted. | 16:51 |
| terry | gracz: I'm sorry I don't understand your question. Please re-prhase and try again. | 16:51 |
| kilian_ | @arand: gparted fails; it tells :"unallocated" | 16:51 |

| Taev | i want to find pygtk | 16:54 |
| === steve_web_mobile is now known as Logan_ | ||
| Combatjuan | milamber: I assumed you meant /var/lib/dpkg/status? The relevant section is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/587870/ | 16:54 |
| llutz | Taev: apt-cache search pattern | 16:54 |
| terry | gracz: The terms "window manager" and "desktop enviornment" are synonymous AFIK. | 16:54 |
| sipior | Taev: try "apt-cache search --names-only pygtk" | 16:55 |
| Combatjuan | aron__: ~/.vimrc for your personal one. | 16:55 |
| arand | kilian_: http://gparted-forum.surf4.info/viewtopic.php?id=14471 THis seems to describe a similar issue? | 16:55 |
| jiltdil | what is LUCID basically? | 16:55 |
| Taev | it found python-zbarpygtk | 16:56 |
| brightspark | !lucid | 16:56 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) was the twelfth release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1004 | 16:56 |
| llutz | terry: GNOME is a DE using metacity as window-manager by default | 16:56 |
| Taev | i installed it | 16:56 |
| aron__ | Combatjuan: thanks. i tried to edit /etc/vim/vimrc with no results. | 16:56 |
| Taev | it said i had the newest version | 16:56 |
| Taev | but the ./configure says i need it | 16:56 |
| Taev | no package pygtk-2.0 found | 16:56 |
| llutz | terry: like KDE is a DE using kwin as windowmanager, LXDE using openwin, XFCE using xfwm | 16:57 |
| dagon666 | Im having problems with my ubuntu server booting out of raid md0 device. Is it possible to reboot the system in situations when the md device cannot be assembled instead of going into very limited shell ? | 16:57 |
| Taev | consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non standard prefix | 16:57 |
| Combatjuan | aron__: Yeah, you probably want to copy /etc/vim/vimrc to ~/.vimrc and then edit it. (though this has probably already been done for you) | 16:57 |
| Taev | alternative you may set the environment variables PYGTK_CFLAGS and PYGTK_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config | 16:57 |
| terry | llutz: So what is the answer to gracz's question? | 16:57 |
| kilian_ | @arand: I'll try testdisk! | 16:58 |
| llutz | terry: what question? | 16:58 |
| trism | Taev: just make sure python-gtk2-dev is installed, that provides pygtk-2.0.pc | 16:58 |
| arand | kilian_: Reading your fdisk output, it seems that you have a very similar issue as that of the gparted forum thread I linked, the person there seems to manage to solve it so you might want to follow his steps, after backing up everything that you are able to of course. | 16:58 |
| brightspark | terry: I believe it is compiz | 16:58 |
| Combatjuan | aron__: Also, in vim. ":echo $MYVIMRC" will tell you which one it is using for vim >= 7.2 | 16:58 |
| terry | llutz: He asked what is the window manager for gnome? | 16:58 |
| Taev | installing now | 16:58 |
| Taev | tyvm | 16:58 |
| aron__ | Combatjuan: i dunno. i only have the ~/.viminfo | 16:58 |
| kilian_ | @arand: backup is a small problem, my external drive is full :) | 16:58 |
| llutz | terry: ah, compiz if desktop-effects are enabled or metacity if not | 16:59 |
| Taev | wow i love when people say Ubuntu is ready to replace windows | 16:59 |
| terry | brightspark: I don't think so. compiz is OpenGL window and compositing manager | 16:59 |
| Taev | dependency hell! | 16:59 |
| dell | 你好 | 16:59 |
| dell | 有人阿曼 | 16:59 |

| extraymond | ayecee:But Nothing happened | 17:00 |
| arand | kilian_: You can always make a copy of the current partition table, by copying the first 512 bytes of sda | 17:00 |
| jbkc85 | anyone know of a good way to calculate the size of a innodb database? | 17:01 |
| terry | llutz: Ok, well I stand corrected then. metacity is the window manager for gnome. | 17:01 |

| ubottu | taev this helps: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 17:09 |

| agronholm | seems that only sun-java6-jre and gcj-jre-headless do | 17:19 |
| that_is_lg | who are using openssh can u help me | 17:19 |
| beniwtv | that_is_lg: Don't ask to ask, just ask ;) | 17:19 |
| Polah | that_is_lg: OpenSSH comes with Ubuntu by default. What do you need help with? | 17:19 |
| agronholm | the server isn't installed by default though | 17:19 |
| Squarism | sipior, well ... my command looks like this : cron_wrapper.sh date_from=$(date -d yesterday +"%Y-%m-%d");date_to=($date_from "23:59:59"); bundle exec rake epic:store ${date_from},${date_to} | 17:20 |
| Pici | Polah: ssh is not installed by default. | 17:20 |
| llutz | openssh-client is | 17:20 |
| Squarism | sipior, as cron is not bash i must pass my 3 statements to bash through the wrapper script | 17:20 |
| that_is_lg | ii installed it | 17:20 |
| Pici | Polah, llutz: I stand corrected ;) | 17:21 |
| Polah | that_is_lg: openssh-server? What problems are you having? | 17:21 |
| sipior | Squarism: again, why not leave out the semi-colons, and have your script process the argument list ("$1","$2",...)? | 17:21 |
| that_is_lg | when i try connect it said permission denid | 17:21 |
| kilian_ | @arand: i've just opened gParted and I can see the partition table now. Would i be safe to edit the last partition, so gParted makes everything ok? | 17:21 |
| Polah | that_is_lg: Does it say that on connecting or when attempting to login? | 17:22 |
| spasysheep | does dpkg handle dependencies? Or do I need to use one of the higher-level tools for that? | 17:22 |
| that_is_lg | ok can we go on a window to talk | 17:22 |
| llutz | spasysheep: no, use apt | 17:22 |
| Squarism | sipior, but the wrapper executes $@ | 17:22 |
| arand | kilian_: I have no idea, maybe? | 17:22 |
| sipior | spasysheep: no and yes, respectively. | 17:22 |
| Polah | that_is_lg, No. | 17:22 |
| that_is_lg | i'm not sure | 17:23 |
| that_is_lg | i used this command to connect | 17:23 |
| sipior | Squarism: so edit the wrapper. what's the problem here? | 17:23 |
| that_is_lg | ssh usernam@ip | 17:23 |
| beniwtv | that_is_lg: Does your message appear after you entered the password? | 17:23 |
| that_is_lg | ssh usernam@ip | 17:23 |
| that_is_lg | yes | 17:23 |
| Squarism | sipior, i cant / rather not | 17:23 |
| spasysheep | OK, and if I have installed a library required by a .deb manually (compiled from source etc) will aptitude detect that, or does it only look at things installed from .deb files? | 17:23 |
| that_is_lg | the messages is | 17:23 |
| Polah | When I try to install/update some programs, APT says it can't authenticate them. How can I fix this, I imagine it's an issue with the keyserver | 17:23 |
| ayecee | spasysheep: aptitude will not detect that. | 17:24 |
| that_is_lg | usename@ip password | 17:24 |
| that_is_lg | : | 17:24 |
| that_is_lg | i pressed my password | 17:24 |
| that_is_lg | then it said | 17:24 |
| that_is_lg | permission denied | 17:24 |
| beniwtv | that_is_lg: either the password is wrong, or the user you are trying to log-in as is not allowed to. | 17:24 |
| Polah | that_is_lg: No, do "ssh <username>@<ip>", then it should prompt for a password; but the password in then | 17:24 |
| lorimar | i just inherited an old hoary server that I need to install a package on. unfortuantely my sources are so out of date they dont exist anymore. anyone know what sources I should be using for hoary? | 17:25 |
| ayecee | heh. with the password in the command line, it would try to run the password as a command on the remote machine. hence, permission denied. | 17:25 |
| jrib | lorimar: you should be upgrading | 17:25 |
| that_is_lg | username is username from my local pc or server | 17:25 |
| Braber01 | my printq keeps telling me that it isn't connected however my dad is able to print any ideas? | 17:25 |
| spasysheep | that_is_lg: ssh <ip> -l <username> | 17:25 |
| ayecee | lorimar: hoary is well outside of support, so there are no sources to use. | 17:25 |
| jrib | !upgrade | lorimar | 17:25 |
| ubottu | lorimar: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 17:25 |
| Polah | that_is_lg: You need to use the username for the remote server you are connecting to. | 17:25 |
| slug0 | yo, how do i get to the perl channel? please | 17:25 |
| kilian_ | @Arand: gParted has set the last cilinder of my broke partition on the number of cilinders. Is this OK? | 17:25 |
| Polah | slug0: /j #perl perhaps? | 17:26 |
| ayecee | slug0: /join #perl | 17:26 |
| slug0 | danke | 17:26 |
| that_is_lg | example | 17:26 |
| lorimar | yeah, i realize i should upgrade it. we are probably just going to retire it soon. i just need to install one package for the time being | 17:26 |
| that_is_lg | my server | 17:26 |
| that_is_lg | username is | 17:26 |

| that_is_lg | userver | 17:26 |
| that_is_lg | and ip is 10.0.0.8 | 17:26 |
| Polah | lorimar: Yes, definitely upgrade. Hoary is 5 or 6 I think | 17:26 |
| that_is_lg | then my command is | 17:26 |
| ayecee | that_is_lg: please do not use enter as punctuation, it's hard to follow what you're saying. | 17:26 |
| that_is_lg | ssh userver@10.0.0.8 | 17:27 |
| that_is_lg | ? | 17:27 |
| Polah | that_is_lg: Are you trying to connect to a server on your LAN? | 17:27 |
| that_is_lg | yes | 17:27 |
| that_is_lg | my virtural machine | 17:27 |
| that_is_lg | on my pc | 17:27 |
| ayecee | that_is_lg: in that case, ssh userver@10.0.0.8 is correct | 17:28 |
| arand | kilian_: I don't know I*m afraid. | 17:28 |
| Polah | that_is_lg: Provided the IP is correct (LAN IPs are usually 192.168.X.X), do "ssh userver@10.0.0.8" and then put the password in when you are prompted. | 17:28 |
| kilian_ | @Arand: i'll try a reboot to check, and aftwerward reinstall ubuntu | 17:28 |
| kilian_ | if all works :-) | 17:28 |

| spasysheep | that_is_lg: that means your computer can't find the machine with that IP | 17:30 |
| beniwtv | that_is_lg: Is that the correct IP on your lan? If the virtual machine is configured with NAT (not bridge), then that address is not reachable... you will have to change to bridge mode, or do port forwarding. | 17:31 |
| Zealous | O.k silly question #45342 Why are the programs sleeping? | 17:31 |
| that_is_lg | how to port forwarding | 17:31 |

| emma | It is important that everyone in this channel, and other #ubuntu* channels be made aware that it is being publicly logged. But the ops have formed a channel for themselves that they do not publicly log. Why is what is good for the goose not good for the gander? Is this an open source community or not? | 17:34 |

| eamon | Are there any GUI FTP programs as fast as rsync? | 17:35 |
| eamon | I'm using gFTP at the moment and it's transferring at 50kB/s whereas rsync gets 100-110kB/s. | 17:35 |
| Dcite | beniwtv: Thank you,will take a look(hopefully it'll be small ^_^) | 17:35 |

| emma | _Synergy_: no only is it not publicly logged. it is also exclusive. No one but them are allowed to even go in it. | 17:35 |
| emma | Open source community? | 17:35 |
| beniwtv | Dcite: My VM's are usually 1GB, with some programs installed | 17:36 |
| Pici | emma: That information is in the channel's onjoin message. | 17:36 |

| IdleOne | emma: offtopic in #ubuntu-offtopic please | 17:37 |
| Abhijit | subz3r0, every ubuntu cd is live cd | 17:37 |
| rooks | eamon, if you have uncapped ftp server you should get whatever speed the network permits | 17:38 |
| terry | emma: We are freely exchaniging information, (about Ubuntu, nothing more). | 17:38 |
| sipior | emma: can i have your credit card number, then? | 17:38 |
| subz3r0 | my girlfriend is running vista on her laptop, its friggin slow, so i want to try it first with a livecd, then maybe install ubuntu | 17:38 |
| beniwtv | Dcite: If you can connect remotely (without X and firefox) you might save quite a bit of space. Otherwise, just try it out and see. | 17:38 |
| ruan | subz3r0: yes | 17:38 |
| ruan | !livecd | 17:38 |
| ubottu | The Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option. | 17:38 |

| ftab | bin_bash, go for RAID | 17:39 |
| rooks | subz3r0, go for it! 70k of french policeman have it on their computers, it cant be that hard :D | 17:39 |
| bin_bash | ftab: what is RAID and what's the difference? | 17:39 |
| ftab | bin_bash, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID | 17:39 |
| ruan | subz3r0: not sure but usb did work in livecd | 17:39 |
| Dcite | beniwtv: Reading a bit.. it seems to be bound to ubuntu itself.. does that mean if I move the vm itself to a non-ubuntu box it's going to break? | 17:39 |
| zmbi | emma: there are a lot of channel, that dont log, so maybi you can go there | 17:39 |

| subz3r0 | hopefully | 17:39 |
| subz3r0 | thank you guys | 17:40 |
| terry | emma: That is a convenience and helps in a number of ways. Anything you do on the internet is public so no big deal. If you have a Ubuntu question place it here. Thanks for your consern but be assured it is not a problem. | 17:40 |
| Bennit | trying out qjoypad now | 17:40 |
| subz3r0 | peace out | 17:40 |
| sipior | bin_bash: don't muck about with raid. "fsarchiver" is a nice means of storing an entire filesystem, but rsync works just as well. | 17:40 |
| ftab | subz3r0, you can also boot from USB with out installing it | 17:40 |
| beniwtv | Dcite: No, the final image will run fine. | 17:40 |

| beniwtv | Dcite: That is, on any KVM host | 17:40 |

| eamon | rooks: I get a higher speed when I use rsync than when I connect with gFTP | 17:44 |
| sipior | bin_bash: fsarchiver saves the filesystem to a location of your choosing. after reformatting use fsarchiver to restore the filesystem. if you want to save a root partition, i'd recommend doing it from a live cd or the like. | 17:44 |
| ruan | i feel like terminating nautilus to stop it | 17:44 |
| beniwtv | bin_bash: Your settings are in your home connection, so saving all files there with some tool (including the hidden ones starting with ".") will take care of that. Else, if you want the system/applications too make a full disk backup (in that case take a look at redobackup.org). | 17:44 |
| eamon | ANd i can upload bittorrent from that server at 1gigabit/s so upload sped from the server is no the problem | 17:44 |

| bin_bash | sipior: Yes. I have two partitions, one with OS X and one with Ubuntu 10.04 | 17:45 |
| terry | nasser: Make sure your speakers are in working order, powered up, and plugged into active port | 17:46 |
| eamon | no swap? | 17:46 |
| nasser | terry, headphones and speakers are unabled | 17:46 |

| nasser | and in MM | 17:46 |
| llutz | slug0: if you want more, type "/msg alis list *-de" and pick what you like | 17:46 |
| eamon | swap should be at least 1 gb | 17:46 |
| terry | nasser: MM = muted | 17:47 |
| bin_bash | eamon: yes, which is why I'm reformatting and repartitioning | 17:47 |

| eamon | ayecee: that is the way of things | 17:47 |
| b0ot | I was thinking about trying to create a program that would allow you to convert situational awareness data from one format to different formats and send it out unicast/multicast to specified ip/ports. I can handle the translation part, but I was wondering if anyone had a sugestion on how I might be able to send the data with linux? *bonus* to any solution that would work cross platform | 17:47 |
| ayecee | eamon: don't know, then? | 17:47 |
| eamon | bin_bash: no need to reformat, resize your partitions with gparted | 17:47 |
| nasser | terry: ok, now they're in OO | 17:47 |
| terry | nasser: Very good... | 17:47 |
| bin_bash | eamon: I know what I need to do, okay? I need to reformat and do a slim install of OS X. | 17:48 |
| eamon | bin_bash: why reformat? | 17:48 |
| terry | nasser: The m key toggles mute on or off in alsamixer. ... but I guess you just now learned that so... | 17:48 |
| bin_bash | eamon: Because that is the way of things. | 17:48 |
| rooks | eamon, do you have access to the config of that ftp server? | 17:48 |
| nasser | terry: anyway, i cannot put up the volume of these two things... | 17:48 |
| eamon | rooks: no I'm just a user | 17:49 |
| bin_bash | sipior: At any rate, Linux is only on one partition, not including the swap. | 17:49 |
| nasser | i mean in alsamixer | 17:49 |
| eamon | I probably have read access rooks | 17:49 |
| terry | nasser: If it has MM at bottom, hit the m key to unmute and then the uparrrow to raise vilume. Left and right arrows will move to different channels. | 17:49 |
| bilalo | /' | 17:50 |
| rooks | eamon, ftp servers have capped speed | 17:50 |
| eamon | bin_bash: I'm just letting you know that there are tools to resize partitions so you don't need to back up all your files and all that shit | 17:50 |
| beniwtv | eamon: Also, ftp is not very secure, prefer rsync when you can over ssh | 17:50 |
| === herton_lunch is now known as herton | ||
| nasser | terry, i've already unmuted speakers and headphones but i click on the up arrow and the volume doesn't raise... | 17:50 |
| eamon | beniwtv: yeah i use rsync and it's faster but I can't select multiple directories with it | 17:51 |
| bin_bash | eamon: I actually do, because I need to get my computer replaced, as well as reformat as there is a memory leak on both partitions that cannot be found, and I need to reinstall OS X and then re-install Ubuntu. I know how to use gparted, as I've used it before but for right now, I actually DO need to back my stuff up, and I DO need to reformat. | 17:51 |
| XX | Does the system recreate /etc/resolv.conf at every boot? Last time I set them to Google's 8.8.4.4 but it reset to different IPs apparently. | 17:51 |
| beniwtv | eamon: You can include/exclude files and directories, see rsync man page | 17:51 |
| ayecee | bin_bash: that's an odd problem, normally memory leaks affect memory rather than disk space.. | 17:51 |
| terry | nasser: The up-arrrow will raise vilume. Left and right arrows will move to different channels. (Mouse has no effect in alsamixer, it is not a GUI.) | 17:52 |
| llutz | XX: yes, change dns in networkmanager-connection or edit dhclient.conf to change | 17:52 |
| eamon | beniwtv: that's useful but it would be faster with a GUI | 17:52 |
| bin_bash | ayecee: yes, I know. Which would be why I'm having swap crashes, even though I'm not using swap. | 17:52 |
| DaZ | eamon: scroll works in alsamixer. | 17:52 |
| ayecee | bin_bash: swap crashes? I guess I missed that story :) | 17:52 |
| DaZ | terry i mean :f | 17:52 |
| eamon | bin_bash: oh right, ok it sounded like you just wanted to make your swap partition bigger | 17:52 |
| beniwtv | eamon: If your excluded files change often, then agreed. | 17:52 |
| terry | nasser: Left and right arrows will move to different channels. If it has MM at bottom, hit the m key to un-mute and then the uparrrow to raise vilume. | 17:52 |
| ioria | hi | 17:53 |
| bin_bash | eamon: I'm going to do all of that when I reformat. The fact of the matter is, I DO need to reformat for a number of different reasons, mostly that I need to re-install OS X on a smaller partition, which is most easily done after a reformat. | 17:53 |
| nasser | terry, i know it! the up arrow doesn't work! i click on it and the volume doesn't raise!! | 17:53 |
| terry | DaZ: O | 17:53 |
| eamon | beniwtv: yeah it does. I'm looking for something like a FTP program but that uses rsync as the transfer protocol | 17:53 |

| ioria | does anyone know if has been solved the problem about Toshiba America Info Systems SD TypA Controller ? | 17:54 |
| nasser | terry, could be another solution reinstalling alsa packages?? | 17:54 |
| terry | nasser: forget the mouse. Use the right or left arrow to select channel and then when you are on a particular channel, use m key to mute or unmute and then the up or down arrow to raise or lower volume. | 17:54 |
| bin_bash | eamon: Also I need to get my computer fixed or replaced, and therfore need all my files to be backed up. Now, back to the original issue. What is the best way to back EVERYTHING up so that I can restore it after a re-install without a LiveCD | 17:54 |
| ayecee | ioria: i have not heard the problem about Toshiba America Info Systems SD TypA Controller. | 17:54 |
| ioria | google it :) | 17:55 |

| ayecee | ioria: is there a bug report filed for it? | 17:55 |
| ioria | yes | 17:55 |
| ayecee | ioria: is the bug report still marked as unresolved? | 17:55 |

| nasser | terry: i'm not using the mouse! | 17:55 |
| ayecee | ioria: then the problem has not yet been fixed. | 17:55 |
| bin_bash | eamon: can I apt-get that? | 17:55 |
| naomi_ | I have an external hard drive that I just want to plug in and transfer films over to but nothing shows up when I plug it in? Like where is this version of "My Computer" | 17:55 |
| beniwtv | eamon: I have not heard about a rsync tool that lets you transfer selected files via click, but it would be a really useful one! | 17:56 |
| ioria | it's an old thread | 17:56 |
| Combatjuan | What does the term "pool" mean with respect to package repositories? | 17:56 |
| llutz | bin_bash: rsync, tar, fs-archiver | 17:56 |

| BluesKaj-den | naomi_, open nautilus /places | 17:56 |
| ayecee | ioria: okay | 17:56 |
| terry | nasser: Then why did you say "i click on it and the volume doesn't raise!!"? Are you in alsamixer? | 17:56 |
| beniwtv | eamon: Right now, all rsync tools are more geared towards backups of directories | 17:56 |

| naomi_ | what on earth is nautilus? | 17:56 |
| bin_bash | llutz: fsarchiver requires me to do it from a LiveCD, which I don't have. Do the others permit me to do it from the hdd itself? | 17:56 |
| ayecee | ioria: that's a thread, not a bug report | 17:56 |

| eamon | bin_bash: yes, Partition Image or partimage | 17:57 |
| nasser | terry; i meant i pressed the up arrow button... | 17:57 |
| llutz | bin_bash: backing up / from a running system may break things. so usage of a live-cd is advised in any case | 17:57 |
| beniwtv | eamon: Hmmm... that makes me thinking though. Would the file manager (nautilus) work for you? It can connect over ssh and transfer (copy) files... | 17:57 |

| eamon | bin_bash: PartImage would be your best bet | 17:57 |
| bin_bash | llutz: That doesn't really make sense. WHy wouldn't I be able to back everything up while using the system? I don't have a LiveCD nor a blank one to burn it to | 17:58 |
| terry | nasser: Does it have MM at the bottom? | 17:58 |
| sipior | bin_bash: unless you're filesystem is ext4, in which case partimage will not work. do you happen to recall which filesystem you are using? | 17:58 |
| Combatjuan | bin_bash: The filesystem will likely change during the course of your backup. | 17:58 |
| llutz | bin_bash: you cannot lock some processes, they'll run and possobly change things during backup- | 17:58 |
| sipior | your, rather | 17:58 |
| BluesKaj-den | odd, I thought nautilus was default file manager | 17:58 |
| bin_bash | sipior: Yes it is ext4 | 17:59 |
| eamon | beniwtv: I use Xfce. I need a more powerful computer for those newer desktop environments! | 17:59 |

| terry | nasser: Well, first off, what does it say at top of the screen? ALC262 ? or what? | 17:59 |
| arand | bin_bash: You can do it online if you have snapshotting capabilities e.g. LVM or Btrfs, otherwise not. | 17:59 |
| ayecee | ioria: according to the bug report, it's still not supported, and is on the wishlist for kernel developers. | 17:59 |
| ioria | ayecee: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/88863 | 17:59 |
| sipior | bin_bash: i don't believe partimage will work with ext4, sadly. fsarchiver will, and of course rsync is an option. | 17:59 |
| nasser | terry: http://imagebin.org/145917 take a look at this screenshot! | 17:59 |
| beniwtv | eamon: Humm... I haven't used Xfce yet, so I can't say if the file manager there would support it. | 17:59 |
| ioria | :-(((( | 17:59 |
| bin_bash | sipior: Yeah I ust read about partimage and it won't work. It seems like dd might be my best option. Would I be able to do dd while using the system? | 18:00 |
| sipior | bin_bash: seriously, don't do that. | 18:00 |
| bin_bash | sipior: Why not? | 18:00 |
| bin_bash | sipior: It's a 50gig partition with only about 40 being used being put onto a 250gig external partition. Space is not an issue here. | 18:01 |
| llutz | bin_bash: why don't you read the answers already given to you? | 18:01 |
| terry | nasser: Now that you have Master and PCM turned all the way up, is it working? Try and play a sound and see what happens. | 18:01 |
| sipior | bin_bash: backing up a live filesystem is a non trivial affair. what happens if dd catches a file whilst it is being modified? | 18:01 |
| bin_bash | llutz: I've been reading them, and googling them | 18:01 |
| bin_bash | But I don't have a LiveCD nor a way to make one | 18:01 |
| bin_bash | So, what am I supposed to do? | 18:01 |
| spasysheep | bin_bash: make a live USB? | 18:02 |
| nasser | terry: no, it doesn't | 18:02 |
| bin_bash | spasysheep: didn't think of that | 18:03 |
| sipior | bin_bash: do you need the system files? how about just backing up your home directory with rsync? | 18:03 |
| llutz | bin_bash: there is no real safe way to backup a running system period | 18:03 |
| bin_bash | sipior: is there a reason I wouldn't need the system files? | 18:03 |
| sipior | bin_bash: yes, you would reinstall the operating system after erasing the disk. | 18:03 |
| spasysheep | bin_bash: because they can all be reinstalled with relative ease? All you need should be your home folder and the configuration files it contains (in theory) | 18:04 |
| bin_bash | sipior: That was what I was planning on doing. If I just back up the home folder, would it save all my applications including my config files for conky and the like? | 18:04 |
| Combatjuan | sipior: It would probably also be nice if he could easily reinstall all the packages he has installed. I've wondered, is there an easy way to export that? | 18:04 |
| sipior | Combatjuan: yep, sure is. just a sec... | 18:05 |
| sipior | !clone | 18:05 |
| ubottu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 18:05 |

| hypatia | oneliner: you can alias stuff in bash, or use ctrl-r to search your bash history | 18:23 |
| bin_bash | sipior: do you think that would work for me | 18:23 |
| maco | NoSpin: are you using compiz or metacity? they have different shortcut settings tools | 18:23 |
| Pici | hypatia: curl can also do it, but I find it a bit messy. | 18:23 |
| hypatia | terry: clearly :) | 18:23 |
| antant | ayecee: Yeah, on boot it says it can't mount. Press S to skip or r to recovery manually | 18:23 |
| winnie_ | funny i tried to join that channel hypatia, bonjoyee: thnx | 18:23 |
| bs_ | abountu,if we dont know about bug summary than what is written in bug summary???? | 18:23 |
| ayecee | antant: what happens when you try to mount it later from a command line? | 18:23 |
| bonjoyee | hypatia: http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/SSL/TLS | 18:23 |
| sipior | bin_bash: sure, looks fine. | 18:23 |
| hypatia | Pici: i need to be able to browse, so curl's not ideal - good to know though! | 18:23 |
| hypatia | bonjoyee: saw that, thanks :) | 18:23 |
| antant | ayecee: fine. No problem at all | 18:23 |
| ayecee | antant: does /home exist on its own partition? | 18:24 |
| * hypatia installs filezilla | 18:24 | |
| maco | bs_: what? | 18:24 |
| dziadu | sipior: it is not big deal, i can easily fix it by hand but I was wondering if there is another reason than natty | 18:24 |
| antant | ayecee: and if I use defaults instead of rw,user,auto,uid=ant it's fine too | 18:24 |
| geoffmcc | NoSpin: Crtl + Alt + T worked for me. | 18:24 |
| Arachon | So I managed to mess up network-manager by install and then uninstalling the indicator-network program... Now network-manager doesn't start when I boot the system, and I can't figure out how to start it manually <.< | 18:24 |
| sipior | dziadu: might be a bug, difficult to say, since i imagine the release is changing fairly quickly at this point. | 18:24 |
| ayecee | antant: does /home exist on its own partition? | 18:24 |
| tehnef | sipior: did you reinstall it? | 18:24 |
| antant | ayecee: no, home is within a partition | 18:24 |
| sipior | tehnef: reinstall what? | 18:25 |
| bs_ | maco,if we r reporting bug and if we dont know about bug summary than what is written in bug summary box??? | 18:25 |
| dziadu | sipior: but this bug is so obvious that should be fixed ages ago | 18:25 |
| tehnef | sipior: indicator-network | 18:25 |
| antant | ayecee: but I've tried to /mnt and /media too and no luck | 18:25 |
| sipior | tehnef: perhaps you intended that for someone else. | 18:25 |
| tehnef | heh...yeah. it gets busy in here | 18:25 |
| ayecee | antant: my guess is that the mountpoint doesn't exist at the moment when it's trying to mount at boot, but it's hard to tell without seeing the rest of the fstab. | 18:25 |
| tehnef | Arachon: did you reinstall indicator-network? | 18:25 |
| Pici | !floodbot | valadares | 18:25 |
| ubottu | valadares: FloodBot1,2,3, and 4 are all bots, please direct your questions to the channel. | 18:25 |
| NoSpin | maco: im not sure how do i find out? | 18:25 |
| maco | bs_: you fill in a one-line explanation of what's wrong | 18:25 |
| Arachon | tebnef: Nope, I kinda lost network connectivity... | 18:25 |
| maco | bs_: like "firefox crashes on youtube" for example | 18:26 |
| maco | NoSpin: is desktop effects turned on? | 18:26 |
| valadares | right | 18:26 |
| Arachon | But as far as I rememember, indicator-network is just an alternative to network-manager... Using another daemon? | 18:26 |
| bs_ | maco,ok thankx | 18:26 |
| tehnef | Arachon: do you know the details of your network? you can manually specify your settings and route in order to get whatever packages you need back | 18:26 |
| NoSpin | maco: again not sure. how do i find out? | 18:26 |
| tehnef | Arachon: re: indicator-network, I'm not sure. one of the first things I do on any ubuntu install is uninstall network-manager | 18:27 |
| antant | ayecee: http://pastebin.com/dZdft4iX | 18:27 |
| bin_bash | sipior: the path for my home directory is ~/home correct? | 18:27 |
| ayecee | tehnef: that's a shame, it's really improved. | 18:27 |
| antant | ayecee: thanks | 18:27 |
| rypervenche | How can I fix this problem with my locale? When I type "locale" in my terminal, this is what I get. http://pastebin.com/XS1KHR6v | 18:27 |
| llutz | bin_bash: ~ OR /home | 18:27 |
| brightspark | NoSpin: System>Preferneces>Appearance and the last tab | 18:27 |
| Arachon | tehnef: What information would I need for my network then? | 18:27 |
| sipior | bin_bash: just "~" | 18:27 |
| ayecee | antant: I don't see your line in thist fstab.. | 18:28 |
| tehnef | ayecee: oh i know, it's not too bad, but i need to be able to add virtual ifs and such | 18:28 |
| NoSpin | normal | 18:28 |
| geoffmcc | bin_bash: just ~/ | 18:28 |
| antant | ayecee: it's the /mnt/sda3 line. I tried it to a different location and no luck | 18:28 |
| tehnef | Arachon: subnet, gateway (router), that's about it | 18:28 |
| ayecee | antant: i see it now, one sec | 18:28 |
| sipior | bin_bash: try "echo $HOME" in a terminal, since you'll likely want to use the full path. | 18:28 |
| NoSpin | maco: normal is the setting, so no they arent turned off i guess | 18:28 |
| Arachon | tehnef: Hm. I might be able to find that out... I just go into my network settings and specify that manually then? | 18:28 |
| NoSpin | brightspark: thanks | 18:28 |
| terry | valadares: Is it the Ethernet Device you are trying to use? (MCP51 Ethernet Controller) | 18:29 |
| ayecee | antant: try changing the last number (the "pass") to 2, maybe | 18:29 |
| Arachon | tehnef: Also, I should note that this is wireless | 18:29 |
| valadares | no | 18:29 |
| valadares | my wlan don't appears in lspci | 18:29 |
| tehnef | Arachon: that likely makes things a bit more difficult | 18:29 |
| Arachon | tehnef: Bother :c | 18:29 |
| ayecee | antant: other than that, I can't see what would case that problem, and it's too bad that the actual error is hidden | 18:29 |
| tehnef | Arachon: do you have the ability to hook up via wire? if so, you should do so until you get this fixed | 18:29 |
| bin_bash | sipior: Does this look right | 18:30 |
| bin_bash | http://imgur.com/pCQE8 | 18:30 |
| valadares | terry: no,my wlan adapter don't appears there | 18:30 |
| Arachon | tehnef: Yeah, that's possible... But seeing as I've got network-manager installed, how would I enable it? | 18:30 |
| beniwtv | valadares: If it is usb, try lsusb instead | 18:30 |

| beerios | Pici, will do, thanks. | 18:30 |
| valadares | in lsusb is that: Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0bda:8171 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. | 18:31 |

| llutz | bin_bash: dest /dev7sdb2 is a device, not a dir | 18:31 |
| terry | valadares: ifconfig | pastebinit | 18:31 |
| tehnef | Arachon: as long as your ubuntu install properly sees the NIC and has the drivers, i can walk you through that | 18:31 |
| sipior | bin_bash: fine, although you would normally specify "/home/<username>". as i imagine you're the only one with a home directory on that machine, there's very little practical difference. | 18:31 |
| NoSpin | figured it out.. i am using two different keyboard layouts, and it was confused which button was t (for the record I was pushing the 't' button on the active layout) | 18:31 |
| terry | valadares: ifconfig | pastebinit #Show us the resulting URL | 18:31 |
| Arachon | Tehnef: Right, let me get the computer first | 18:31 |
| bin_bash | sipior: Yeah, I fixed that | 18:31 |
| bin_bash | sipior: Okay, here goes a try | 18:31 |
| bonjoyee | rypervenche: did you change the default locale? | 18:32 |
| antant | ayecee: http://pastebin.com/9Mbs74pE | 18:32 |
| rypervenche | bonjoyee: I tried changing it to English and back, but the problem remains. | 18:32 |
| NoSpin | thanks guys | 18:32 |
| brightspark | I can't open pdfs in Firefox using evince. Can someone please assist me? | 18:32 |

| bonjoyee | rypervenche: did you try a reboot after changing it? | 18:32 |
| rypervenche | bonjoyee: I did. | 18:32 |
| terry | valadares: SO ifconfig only shows a section for lo ? | 18:33 |
| beniwtv | valadares: try ifconfig -a | 18:33 |
| ayecee | antant: I don't see anything about sda3 here.. | 18:33 |
| bonjoyee | rypervenche: how did you change the locale? | 18:33 |
| raven | how to mount a samba dir at startup? | 18:33 |
| rypervenche | bonjoyee: I used the GUI in "Language Support" | 18:34 |
| valadares | terry: ifconfig only shows lo and eth0 | 18:34 |
| terry | valadares: Ok what does it say under eth0 ? | 18:34 |
| bonjoyee | rypervenche: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales | 18:34 |
| terry | valadares: ifconfig | pastebinit | 18:34 |
| terry | valadares: Show us... | 18:34 |
| bonjoyee | rypervenche: then reboot...after selecting the required locales... | 18:34 |
| Arachon | tehnef: Roight, seems like the wired connection isn't working either... | 18:34 |
| valadares | right | 18:34 |
| antant | ayecee: http://pastebin.com/meD84Vdk | 18:35 |
| valadares | terry: http://pastebin.com/P8a4iVTZ | 18:35 |
| antant | ayecee: it's saying that uid is an unrecognised option | 18:35 |
| antant | ayecee: or missing value | 18:35 |
| valadares | beniwtv: ifconfig -a don't works | 18:36 |
| rypervenche | bonjoyee: It had this to say when I did it, http://pastebin.com/vUaGBteE | 18:36 |
| ayecee | antant: ah, right. Is uid valid for ext4? | 18:36 |
| Polah | Is there anything I could run to check if there is a man-in-the-middle attack on my local home network? | 18:36 |
| llutz | ayecee: it isn't | 18:36 |
| Pici | Polah: Thats probably a better question for ##networking and/or ##security | 18:37 |
| XX | Is in.archive.ubuntu.com down? | 18:37 |
| terry | valadares: Ok, your Ethernet Device (MCP51 Ethernet Controller) is connected and it's IP address is 192.168.1.3 | 18:37 |
| XX | DaZ: O_o | 18:37 |
| antant | ayecee: uid valid for ext4?? I thought uid was the user id, which is 1000 (ant) | 18:37 |
| ayecee | antant: there we go. uid would normally be for filesystems that don't support uid themselves, like vfat. | 18:37 |
| Pici | XX: A few people have reported that in the past few days, you may want to try an alternate mirror. | 18:37 |
| beniwtv | valadares: ?? That command is to list all interfaces, even the disabled ones, so if you have no disabled ones if will show the same as ifconfig | 18:37 |
| DaZ | XX: ? | 18:37 |
| ayecee | antant: so, it should work if you remove the uid part. | 18:37 |
| terry | valadares: What is it you are wanting to do? What is your end goal? | 18:37 |
| XX | Pici: How do you change the mirror | 18:37 |
| antant | ayecee: ok, so how do I get write access to it then? | 18:37 |
| llutz | antant: ext4 is an unix-filesystem, ownership and permissions are set by chmod/chown, not mount-options | 18:37 |
| ayecee | antant: with chown/chmod | 18:37 |
| bonjoyee | rypervenche: now see what "locale" says? | 18:38 |
| terry | valadares: Are you looking for a wifi device? Is that it? | 18:38 |
| valadares | terry: i buy a wlan adapter: and i want to do linux detect it | 18:38 |
| antant | llutz, ayecee: so doing it once will give me write access all the time? | 18:38 |
| ayecee | antant: yes | 18:38 |

| Arachon | *apologies | 19:00 |
| meganerdca | Stava: should? Probably not. | 19:00 |
| Shyster | eitri: you should be able to boot off the win7 dvd and install it to the flash drive instead of the hard drive if the flash drive is big enough | 19:00 |
| Arachon | eitri: Let's see... I think you can use the xcopy tool to do this | 19:00 |
| Stava | meganerdca, right, how can i run a script when adduser/useradd is called? | 19:00 |
| Arachon | inside Windows | 19:00 |
| eitri | Shyster: I can't keyboard doesn't work during boot. So I can't get it to boot from dvd | 19:01 |
| eitri | Arachon: thx | 19:01 |

| maco | kso: mmm taht seems not to work | 19:16 |
| kso | maco: thing is i think i ran into this before, and it's something in Bash clearing the screen after commands... doesn't work this way on my debian machine; trying to find the difference | 19:16 |
| maco | kso: mtr uses escape sequences to over-write its output over and over. you'll get a file full of the escape sequences | 19:16 |
| kso | maco: that's why i was saying mtr doesn't work that way :D | 19:17 |

| maco | kso: this isnt a bash problem. this is how less works. less clears on exit. more does not. if you use "less -e" then you get behaviour similar to more. possibly your debian system is configured to always run less with -e? | 19:21 |

| Tamagotchi-0P | what edu said | 19:44 |
| An_Ony_Moose | ActionParsnip: fresh installs are painful on this machine, since it has no CD drive and getting it to boot off USB is a pain too | 19:44 |
| eduNetwork | google - translate | 19:44 |
| An_Ony_Moose | coz_: thanks... but that doesn't give anything about UNE >.< | 19:44 |
| thevishy | coz_, at what stage does Ubuntu create a grub during a fresh install ? Does it happen near the end of the installation ? | 19:45 |
| coz_ | thevishy, yes near the end of the installation if I am not mistaken | 19:46 |
| arkanabar | thevishy, I'd think it'd have to, to save configuration into your /boot directory. | 19:46 |
| thevishy | right , so my deleting the paritions would not lead to a incomplete / misconfigured grub | 19:46 |
| thevishy | right ...so its like all installations removals of OS done and then in the end reconcile | 19:46 |
| thevishy | coz_, so deleting paritions for a fresh install is safe way | 19:47 |
| arkanabar | thevishy, there is also "sudo update-grub" for all your grub reconfiguring needs. | 19:47 |
| Joadri | Hi Guys :) I have a question: how can I burn several (4 or 5) avi files in a single dvd in Ubuntu, that I can play in a dvd player capable of reading avi files? | 19:47 |
| thevishy | non windows partitions | 19:47 |
| thevishy | right | 19:47 |
| Starminn | Virtual terminals (F1-F6) are fine, but when I go to the GUI (F7), it gets stuck on "Checking battery state..." I'm on a desktop... :/ | 19:47 |
| llutz | Joadri: just create a data-dvd holding your files | 19:47 |
| thevishy | using a DVD creator should do it no Joadri | 19:47 |
| arkanabar | I'm looking for a feed reader that provides a list of timestamped links I can click to launch in my preferred browser -- and nothing else. Any suggestions? | 19:47 |
| coz_ | thevishy, well if you are going to keep the windows partition,, it may not be necessary to actually delete the ubuntu partition,, but sure you can do that | 19:48 |
| Joadri | Data? Okay. It will be easy. Bracero can do it, but I wasn't sure the dvd player would see them. | 19:48 |
| mark76 | Okay. In a nutshell. Why doesn't my audio in work? | 19:48 |
| kitty0230 | because the shell blocks the sound | 19:48 |
| thevishy | coz_, when i start installing the 11.04 using USB , I would have to select some paritions drives ..or will ubuntu intelligently decide to over write the 10.10 version ? | 19:49 |
| kitty0230 | and you cant fit the hardware into a nutshell, | 19:49 |
| llutz | Joadri:if in doubt: try it using dvd+rw | 19:49 |
| coz_ | mark76, did you open terminal... alsamixer to see if any sliders are muted or turned down ? | 19:49 |
| thevishy | coz_, does ubuntu do a upgrade installation by removing the older on | 19:49 |
| Joadri | I thing that's what i have at home. I will try tonight. | 19:49 |
| coz_ | thevishy, I would assume it is going to overwrite it ,,, yes | 19:49 |
| mark76 | Yes. And the important one is unmuted | 19:49 |
| arkanabar | thevishy, upgrading to a new release actually changes your repo list and then updates all your software to versions in the new repo | 19:50 |
| thevishy | I see ...then it would be great | 19:50 |
| coz_ | thevishy, it should be fine ,, yes | 19:50 |
| ssfdre38 | so what is the date for 11.04? | 19:50 |
| kitty0230 | question: i have a ubuntu install that i want to migrate to xubuntu, how do i do that while maintain file system, and getting rid of all gnome artifacts | 19:50 |
| thevishy | arkanabar, thats fine . But say I am using a USB of an ISO ....will it intelligently overwrite by existing partition | 19:50 |
| Starminn | !natty > ssfdre38 | 19:50 |
| ubottu | ssfdre38, please see my private message | 19:50 |
| arkanabar | kitty0230, that's tricky, as gnome and xfce both use GTK+ toolkit. | 19:51 |
| coz_ | thevishy, if you plan on just "upgrading" your current install,, then it could get dicey although many would disagree with me,,, install fresh,, it will overwrited the current ubuntu | 19:51 |
| llutz | kitty0230: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce | 19:51 |
| coz_ | thevishy, just back up the files you need or want to save | 19:51 |
| thevishy | coz_, ok :) | 19:51 |
| Punkoff | Could someone please share his config of Bacula? Need some example to follow | 19:51 |
| arkanabar | thevishy, if you're installing, when you get to partitioning make sure to format the partition you select to do that. | 19:52 |
| coz_ | Punkoff, ah darn I dont have that here | 19:52 |
| thevishy | Right | 19:52 |
| arkanabar | but if you have an installation you want to update, you shouldn't need an installer -- just bandwidth. | 19:52 |
| Starminn | Virtual terminals (F1-F6) are fine, but when I go to the GUI (F7), it gets stuck on "Checking battery state..." Any suggestions? Ubuntu 10.10 on a desktop. Needs a hard reboot to work again. | 19:52 |
| coz_ | thevishy, you understand that 11.04 is going to default to the Unity desktop not the Gnome desktop....yes? | 19:52 |
| Janhouse | How can I disable "has left the conversation" in empathy? | 19:52 |
| thevishy | Unity ? | 19:52 |
| thevishy | no I didnt get that ...is Unity not Gnome ? | 19:53 |
| mark76 | I need someone who knows what an nvidia mcp61 chipset is to speak up | 19:53 |
| arkanabar | coz_, yes, but they plan to make reversion fairly simple, I think. | 19:53 |
| coz_ | thevishy, yes go online and google or youtube ubuntu 11.04 | 19:53 |
| Janhouse | it is shown when I close window | 19:53 |
| Janhouse | it is sent to other users | 19:53 |
| coz_ | arkanabar, you can get to gnome desktop in sessions as you log on | 19:53 |
| thevishy | will do thanks , so is Ubuntu giving up on gnome for now ? | 19:53 |
| zee313 | tell me any good voice converter from .wav to mp3 | 19:53 |
| arkanabar | coz_, ah, so GDM handles it. simple enough to set as default there, neh? | 19:53 |
| coz_ | thevishy, no it is just a session change | 19:53 |
| thevishy | meaning ? | 19:54 |
| ActionParsnip | thevishy: after first install, log on to regular desktop and not unity and you'll be fine. Regular desktop is available by default | 19:54 |
| coz_ | arkanabar, yes sort of but some things have changed in gnome on the next release... you would have to actually use it to see the differences | 19:54 |
| thevishy | Right | 19:54 |
| thevishy | unity is a Desktop Environment ? | 19:54 |
| thevishy | or something minimal | 19:54 |
| coz_ | thevishy, netbook | 19:54 |
| === P4R4N01D1 is now known as P4R4N01D | ||

| jbwiv_ | anyone know of a good, central mailing list that broadcasts open source vulnerabilities as they are disclosed? | 19:55 |
| lol | yes thevishy ? | 19:55 |
| coz_ | thevishy, however,,, the best channel to be in for 11.04 is #ubuntu+1 which the official channel for pre releases | 19:55 |
| thevishy | thanks yes | 19:55 |
| thevishy | lol , lol , not for you | 19:56 |
| Starminn | ActionParsnip: Do you have any suggestions for my issue with resuming GUI from virtual terminals? | 19:56 |
| foo-nix | I have a site running on port 8000 which I want to test on ie, on another machine in the 192.168.2.* network. If I type 192.168.2.118 (laptop-ip) I get apache but I I browse to 192.168.2.1:8000 the site does not load. localhost:8000 does work though. | 19:56 |
| ActionParsnip | thevishy: its different, try it. Its a bit clunky at first but after you set it up its ok | 19:56 |
| foo-nix | I have tried to 'allow 8000' in ufw, but this had no effect | 19:56 |
| foo-nix | 'deny 80' did shutdown apache on the other computer though. | 19:56 |
| foo-nix | what else could block 8000? | 19:56 |
| thevishy | great right , I felt its sort of slow :) and I am using netbook only ....Gnome is much better for me | 19:57 |
| arkanabar | I'm looking for a feed reader that provides a list of timestamped links I can click to launch in my preferred browser -- and nothing else. Any suggestions? | 19:57 |
| Punkoff | foo-nix, try telnet <ip> 8000 to test if connection is forbidden or it's an apache problem | 19:57 |
| ActionParsnip | foo-nix: any firewall configs in place? | 19:57 |
| foo-nix | Punkoff, I don't run the site on apache but on django (python) | 19:57 |
| === bleything|away is now known as bleything | ||

| bleything | I'm having a problem with openssl wherein it doesn't seem to be checking /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt for CA certs by default. I'm not sure whether there's a more appropriate channel... any help? | 19:58 |
| arkanabar | divadgnol67, so I can disable the reading pane? | 19:58 |
| Punkoff | foo-nix, by default ./manage.py runserver won't expose the site tp network | 19:58 |
| mark76 | I wish someone would write a driver for the mcp61 | 19:58 |
| Punkoff | foo-nix, use runserver <ip>:8000 | 19:58 |
| foo-nix | Punkoff, ah, also, telnet refuses to connect. So I should tamper with the settings of manage.py | 19:58 |
| foo-nix | Punkoff, thanx | 19:58 |
| divadgnol67 | not sure but it is very configurable. i will check and report back | 19:58 |
| ActionParsnip | !iptables | foo-nix shows default output expected | 19:58 |
| ubottu | foo-nix shows default output expected: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 19:58 |

| lvh | Hi. What's the magic bunch of keypresses for installing a ubuntu server specifically for vms? | 20:02 |
| divadgnol67 | @arkanabar yes you can disable the reading pane and have all links open in your browser of choice. | 20:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Starminn: you can do it from your tty. Edit /etc/default/grub and then run: sudo update-grub to test | 20:03 |
| lvh | I seem to remember a VM-specific install that had stuff like special disk drivers... etc | 20:03 |
| ActionParsnip | spaceninja: sudo apt-get -y install os-prober; sudo os-prober; sudo update-grub | 20:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Lvh: if its a virtual system then you don't need special stuff, especially for a server install | 20:05 |
| bearly230 | I hope this is a quick easy question. I have multipul computers that I need to keep data files synced between. Whats the easyest way to do this? | 20:05 |
| bearly230 | oops I'm running 10.10 | 20:05 |
| DJones | bearly230: For that, I use dropbox | 20:06 |
| Fuchs | bearly230: unison would be a possibility | 20:06 |
| bearly230 | DJones does that run in the background or do I have to manually do it? | 20:06 |
| ActionParsnip | bearly230: rsync is a good way to sync user data | 20:06 |
| Starminn | ActionParsnip: And if it doesn't work I'll still be able to boot to GNOME DE fine? | 20:06 |
| DJones | bearly230: It just creates a folder in /home that you can drop files into that you want to sync between different machines | 20:06 |
| bearly230 | ActionParsnip: Problem with rsync is it only works 1 way. | 20:07 |
| divadgnol67 | @bearly23 easy is a relative term but someone with little to no knowledge could use dropbox or ubuntu's built in software | 20:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Starminn: you just disabled the power management, that's all | 20:07 |
| erUSUL | bearly230: traditionaly that problem has been solved with a *file* *server* | 20:07 |
| divadgnol67 | rsync is great too but requires some knowledge | 20:07 |
| Starminn | ActionParsnip: Oh, okay, that makes perfect sense. | 20:07 |
| DJones | bearly230: Its also cross platform, I use it between multiple ubuntu & windows machines | 20:07 |
| bearly230 | For one of the machines I will have to make it more complicated. Have to do it over ssh. | 20:07 |
| spaceninja | ActionParsnip, thanks but it didn't add anything about windows, strange | 20:07 |
| lotuspsychje | whats the best package for encrypting a folder in ubuntu? | 20:07 |

| spaceninja | ActionParsnip, I'll try rebooting the computer | 20:09 |
| ActionParsnip | bearly230: unison and dropbox have been suggested too. Dropbox is good and a free account may be enough depending on data amount | 20:09 |
| lvh | ActionParsnip: You end up with, IIRC, some different video drivers, some different hard disk drivers | 20:09 |

| Polah | gechmog: If your server is on a LAN you can connect using the internal IP (usually 192.168.X.X). You can find this by doing ifconfig from the server itself or there may be a page on your router. If you're connecting to a server you are paying hosting for, you should have been given an IP, username and password to use if it supports SSH. The user is the user you want to log in as on the remote machine, not your local user account on the computer you're on. | 20:15 |

| shadaloo | guntbert: sure if you like IRCing like a nub | 20:18 |
| Polah | Gechmog: Googling "my ip" and going on the first link should do it. | 20:18 |
| gechmog | Hmmm, I've tried that and it didn't work. :( | 20:19 |
| Starminn | ActionParsnip: Yes, but what I'm asking is would it look something like, GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash noacpi" or do I need a boolean or comma or something? | 20:19 |
| guntbert | shadaloo: if you want any help - behave friendly and considerate | 20:19 |
| ceo | Polah, yes you right thanks, but am need to know why my wine not on menu bar, or how i do or run application fi wine not on list menu | 20:19 |
| ceo | app > wine < am not found it but am have install it Polah | 20:19 |
| shadaloo | guntbert: I never want your help, ever | 20:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Starminn: use a space to separate | 20:20 |
| oCean | shadaloo: yeah, that attitude will get you your help :( | 20:20 |
| Starminn | ActionParsnip: So that would be correct? | 20:20 |
| shadaloo | ActionParsnip: same error Errors were encountered while processing: linux-image-2.6.35-25-generic | 20:20 |
| Polah | ceo: Do "wine" in a terminal with no arguments, it should give you a list of options or tell you to use --help. | 20:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Starminn: yes | 20:20 |

| regeya | o_O | 20:23 |
| guntbert | fisch246: not here | 20:24 |
| Polah | gechmog: You'd do "user@IP". i.e. I have a VPS at the hostname "minecraft.wdgaming.net" so I do "ssh user1@minecraft.wdgaming.net", although you probably haven't set a hostname so you should do something like "user1@208.171.686.442". Of course, if it's on your network look at your router page for the internal IP and use that instead. | 20:24 |

On the page for whatever software you want, next to version there'll be a name in brackets, i.e. Tux Paint has "tuxpaint" for the package name.

| naomi_ | Does amsn have a bug or something? The last few times I've used it it's fozen on me and a bug error report came up? | 21:24 |
| bin_bash | meganerdca: the existing partition is /dev/sdb2 | 21:24 |
| bin_bash | I REALLY can't afford to accidentallty my home folder | 21:24 |
| maco | naomi_: all software has bugs | 21:24 |
| tehnef | bin_bash: what are you trying to do? | 21:24 |
| natschil | hello. doing "create wireless network" keeps dropping packets? does anyone know why it does that? | 21:24 |
| peeniss | hi | 21:24 |
| meganerdca | bin_bash: FAT has some limitations, like path length and file size. If you have files larger than 2 GB then FAT will not work for you (I use a lot of VMs and I do multi-track music mixing as a hobby, so I routinely get large files) | 21:24 |
| bin_bash | tehnef: reformat my external partition sdb2 | 21:24 |
| naomi_ | maco: Yeah but like.. is it messed up now? Should I uninstall or something? | 21:24 |
| tehnef | bin_bash: and what is it that you're worried about? | 21:24 |
| bin_bash | tehnef: accidentally my home folder | 21:25 |
| peeniss | where can download ubuntu i ?? | 21:25 |
| bin_bash | meganerdca: is ext3 a good idea? | 21:25 |
| tehnef | bin_bash: is your home folder on that drive? | 21:25 |
| peeniss | bin_bash yes its very good | 21:25 |
| bin_bash | tehnef: no but i'm in the cli and i'm really unfamiliar with it | 21:25 |
| tehnef | bin_bash: also, what will you be keeping on that partition? | 21:25 |
| peeniss | where can download ubuntu ?? | 21:25 |
| bin_bash | tehnef: my entire home folder | 21:25 |
| tehnef | bin_bash: and there's nothing on sdb2 at the moment? | 21:25 |
| meganerdca | bin_bash: ext3 is a good idea for hard drives, ext2 I use for flash drives | 21:25 |
| peeniss | where can download ubuntu ?? | 21:26 |
| bin_bash | tehnef: there is. i had used cp -r to copy my home folder but it wasn't allowing certain file names | 21:26 |
| maco | peeniss: ubuntu.com has a download link. | 21:26 |
| patryk | siemacie | 21:26 |

| === patryk is now known as Guest17113 | ||
| bin_bash | tehnef: what does that do | 21:26 |
| maco | naomi_: if its freezing a lot, then yeah it could be buggy. do you need a particular feature from it that empathy lacks? | 21:27 |
| Hodr | anyone else unable to do "aptitude update"? | 21:27 |

| Hodr | My update is hanging at "0% [Connecting to us.archive.ubuntu.com] [Connecting to security.ubuntu.com]" | 21:27 |
| bin_bash | meganerdca: is it in my best itnerest to reformat this partition and then use rsync? | 21:27 |
| tehnef | bin_bash: cp -af is an archive copy that will force copy | 21:27 |
| vaaginaa | pok | 21:28 |
| tehnef | bin_bash: what are you backing up to? it's possible the filesystem doesn't like certain things | 21:28 |
| tehnef | bin_bash: cp -af also preserves permissions, which can be very important | 21:28 |
| bin_bash | tehnef: it;'s an external hdd FAT with a 250gig partition | 21:28 |
| meganerdca | bin_bash: it depends, I like rsync, I like ext file systems, YMMV | 21:28 |
| meganerdca | bin_bash: you can use rsync with FAT if you want | 21:28 |
| bin_bash | I don't know if i have anything over 2gigs | 21:29 |
| bastidrazor | vaaginaa: your german humor /fails | 21:29 |
| bin_bash | and a lot of my stuff has weird characters and spaces | 21:29 |
| tehnef | bin_bash: yeah that's the problem. you'll need to tar it in order to preserve permissions | 21:29 |
| bin_bash | i think that's why cp -r was having a problem | 21:29 |

| === vaaginaa is now known as peenisjoinsvaagi | ||
| bin_bash | i'm really new to the cli | 21:30 |
| meganerdca | bin_bash: you did cp -r /path/*, the file system did not escape all the characters | 21:30 |
| bin_bash | meganerdca: what does that mean | 21:30 |
| meganerdca | bin_bash: if you had done cp -a or cp -r /source/path /destination/path you would have likely been ok | 21:30 |
| pyghassen2 | bastidrazor: vaaginaa do german have sense of humor at all ?!!! | 21:30 |

| varsha_jk | hi, I installed kubuntu-desktop. I was fine, but lately it's been giving me a mixer of GNOME and KDE. | 21:32 |
| varsha_jk | It was fine* | 21:32 |
| cipher_ | what | 21:33 |
| Ayush_ | xangua, so I use the same iso to create a bootable usb drive? | 21:33 |
| Hodr | pyghassen2 - are eth0 and eth1 setup up in the interfaces file? | 21:33 |
| varsha_jk | any help on this, please? | 21:33 |
| meganerdca | Hodr: they would not be if they were managed by network manager | 21:33 |
| daniel__ | xangua, exactly what i was looking for thank you | 21:33 |
| cipher_ | varsha_jk, Screenshot? | 21:33 |
| meganerdca | Hodr: which they would be by default | 21:33 |
| IdleOne | !purekde | varsha_jk | 21:33 |
| ubottu | varsha_jk: If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » | 21:33 |
| tehnef | meganerdca: look, i know this won't be a popular opinion...but even Ubuntu is just not there when it comes to being a generally user-proof OS. as an alternative to windows, maybe. but you're going to need to be able to troubleshoot, because Ubuntu randomly breaks shit. | 21:33 |
| xangua | Ayush_: no, you use some progam like ubuntu usb creator, unetbootin or follow the instructions at ubuntu.com | 21:33 |
| pyghassen2 | what happen was the eth0 working fine and suddenly there no trace for it! | 21:33 |
| Hodr | meganerdca network manager is nothing but trouble.. lol | 21:33 |

| meganerdca | bin_bash: lets try to keep it here unless there is a really good reason to take it out of band? | 21:34 |
| bl4ckcomb` | varsha_jk, you don't need gnome to reinstall kde | 21:34 |

| meganerdca | tehnef: I would disagree with that, but it really just is an opinion. You should see the messed up Windows I machines I see every week :) | 21:35 |
| tehnef | meganerdca: oh i know, windows isn't much better. | 21:35 |
| tehnef | anyway, yeah !ot | 21:35 |
| daniel__ | meganerdca, and half the times ubuntu messes up its the users fault | 21:36 |
| meganerdca | bin_bash: OK, that sounds sort of like a good reason :) | 21:36 |
| bl4ckcomb` | daniel__, I agree, kde is rather bloat and needs much more tweaking before it's stable enough | 21:36 |
| pyghassen2 | meganerdca: I got something from the ip addr command | 21:36 |
| meganerdca | pyghassen2: of course you did :) | 21:37 |
| daniel__ | bl4ckcomb, gnome is very basic and it can become very confusing if u want it to be u choose ur level i feel like | 21:37 |
| meganerdca | pyghassen2: if an interface is marked as down, it might not show in ifconfig, ip addr will show state so all current interfaces should be there | 21:37 |
| pyghassen2 | meganerdca: there is eth3 | 21:37 |
| varsha_jk | IdleOne: the splash screen shows Kubuntu instaead of Ubuntu! How's that? | 21:37 |
| meganerdca | pyghassen2: plus, someday ifconfig is going away, ip addr was supposed to replace it years ago | 21:38 |
| meganerdca | pyghassen2: OK, does it have an IP? | 21:38 |
| IdleOne | varsha_jk: it is a side effect of installing both ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop | 21:38 |
| pyghassen2 | meganerdca: sp should I just ifconfig eth3 up, and everything will be ok? | 21:38 |
| varsha_jk | IdleOne: what do i install then? kde-base? | 21:38 |

| rabbitfang | my live cd showed a redish screen then a text entry for a few seconds then nothing. ubuntu is not installed as of yet | 21:59 |
| myrmidette | I get some long output, but it amounts to 1:lo 2: eth0 <no-carrier, broadcast, multicast, up> stated DOWN 3: wlan0 <broadcast, multicast, up, lower_up> state UP | 22:00 |
| myrmidette | I can't paste the whole output because there's no internet | 22:00 |
| myrmidette | on that machine | 22:00 |
| meganerdca | myrmidette: it is saying that there the link is down on eth0 | 22:01 |
| rabbitfang | the same also happens with a GParted live cd | 22:01 |
| emma | The ubuntu ops log this channel and many others in #ubuntu*. That way they have a record that is made public for the world to see of any mistakes or poor judgment or bad choices any of you make. And you will be held accountable. | 22:01 |
| myrmidette | meganerdca, yes. there's no cable in the ethernet port | 22:01 |
| emma | However the ubuntu ops have voted to make an exclusive channel that none of us can join, and they have voted that it will *not* be logged. Because they have voted they need privacy that none of us deserve. | 22:02 |
| SkrappJaw | rabbitfang: sorry. have you tried using a 10.04 distro? try that. You can update to 10.10 from 10.04 | 22:02 |

| myrmidette | back to the wlan problem | 22:03 |
| meganerdca | myrmidette: so you can't connect via wifi? Did I understand the problem correctly? | 22:03 |

| SkrappJaw | It's not been a very reliable thing in my experience to update that way anyway, | 22:04 |

| SkrappJaw | but you could have different results depending on your internet. Is it a laptop? | 22:05 |
| nopf | (... they are connected via synergy. cannot think of a reason though. another ubuntu, also on the same synergy server, doesn't seem to have the problem) | 22:06 |
| meganerdca | myrmidette: any rougue routing entries? "ip route" will show the routes, more than one default is bad unless you specifically set it up | 22:06 |
| myrmidette | there are 2 defaults | 22:06 |
| rabbitfang | skrappjaw: no. a desktop. do you mean not a reliable thing going from 10.04 to 10.10? | 22:06 |
| meganerdca | myrmidette: are they on the same subnet, with different devices? | 22:07 |
| myrmidette | looks like it | 22:07 |
| meganerdca | myrmidette: well, without sudo this is going to be a problem, but normally "sudo ip route del default via dev eth0" | 22:07 |
| SkrappJaw | rabbitfang: ya. i ended up just installing from scratch my 10.10 and my bros laptop. Neither of us had luck with updating to 10.10 from 10.04 | 22:08 |
| meganerdca | myrmidette: I don't suppose there is a root account enabled on this machine that you have a password for? | 22:08 |
| myrmidette | it sats (same for both lines) 'default via 192.168.1.1 dev wlan0 proto static' and 'default via 192.168.1.1 dev eth0 metric 100' | 22:08 |
| myrmidette | nope | 22:08 |

| Dotted | im having an issue with my logitech g500 mouse, cursor movement is extremely laggy and the buttons arent working, how can i fix it? | 22:09 |
| rabbitfang | skrappjaw: well that is what i am trying to kind of do in the long run. i plan on having a dual boot option with windows xp. gparted live is also having the same issue right now | 22:09 |
| myrmidette | the admin will be available in a few hours though, so any instructions would be helpful meganerdca | 22:09 |
| zvacet | myrmidette : why you can not use sudo? | 22:09 |
| meganerdca | myrmidette: you will need need root or sudo access to remove the offending route | 22:09 |
| myrmidette | it's not my machine | 22:09 |
| meganerdca | myrmidette: "sudo ip route del default via dev eth0" | 22:09 |
| myrmidette | thank you very much meganerdca | 22:09 |
| meganerdca | myrmidette: this will leave only the route for device wlan0 in the routing table | 22:09 |
| meganerdca | myrmidette: your welcome | 22:10 |

| buckwheat | my problem is that when i try to load up ubuntu via USB | 22:28 |
| CyberJacob | there seem to be more people on mumble than are active here | 22:28 |
| buckwheat | i cant load it through my bios | 22:28 |
| CyberJacob | then boot from a DC instead | 22:28 |
| CyberJacob | *CD | 22:29 |
| buckwheat | i dont have one | 22:29 |
| buckwheat | well | 22:29 |
| buckwheat | i do | 22:29 |

| FloodBot2 | buckwheat: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 22:29 |
| CyberJacob | then burn another one | 22:29 |
| fisch246 | zvacet: so when you start up your machine, and you hear those 2 drum pats... that's the sound i want to change... not the one that's a few seconds long that plays after you put in your login info | 22:29 |
| ChrisGagnon | rypervenche: have you tried changing your locale using the gnome panel's System -> administration -> language support ? | 22:30 |
| buckwheat | I cant find my CDs tho | 22:30 |
| CyberJacob | then buy new ones | 22:30 |
| buckwheat | ummm | 22:30 |
| buckwheat | ok... | 22:30 |
| rypervenche | ChrisGagnon: I have. Multiple times. It seems my computer can no longer read unicode as well. All characters in unicode come out as question marks. | 22:31 |

| soSuckHmu | very fantastic ubottu Bot!!1 | 22:41 |
| bin_bash | I'm worried it won't work since there's spaces in the title | 22:41 |
| ab | yyyyyy? | 22:41 |
| antant | well you say very fantastic. It seems to have lied | 22:41 |
| ayecee | antant: it is in fact correct. | 22:42 |
| ayecee | antant: the next task is to find out why the package you installed didn't contain it. | 22:42 |
| antant | ayecee: Well it probably is. I'm just restarting to see if it makes a diff | 22:42 |

| ayecee | bin_bash: is it a directory? | 22:46 |
| bin_bash | yes | 22:46 |
| shcherbak | bin_bash: Good movie, use "\ " or Tru* | 22:46 |

| Jordan_U | bin_bash: Then it would be: rm -ri "./Triumph Of The Will" | 22:48 |

| genii-around | shcherbak: Perhaps you need to run alsamixer and turn up the volume | 22:54 |
| magellan | i mean theres is a blank line in the output, how do i remove it.. | 22:54 |
| antant | wrd: Uses lots and lots of shell scripts. Doesn't apt-get though | 22:54 |

| zertyui | yes simply that's my question : jmwpc | 22:55 |
| wrd | antant: where do you want to deploy that thing? it does probably query the apt database for various build tools (i.e. build-essential etc.) | 22:55 |
| jmwpc | zertyui: it should insert a row into a database table called 'domain'... that's about it. | 22:56 |
| JeffJassky | Hey, guys. I have an Ubuntu web server that keeps crashing for an unknown reason (once every few days). Where can I look in the logs to try and diagnose what the problem is? /var/log/syslog only shows post-crash data. | 22:56 |

| wrd | antant: if it's already deployed why do you want to compile it again? do you know what command does query libc.a ? (does it exist on your computer that file in particular?) and why the hell does it link libc.a statically instead of building it's own version of libc ???? | 22:59 |
| antant | wrd: I'm building a custom version | 23:00 |
| jmwpc | zertyui: that does the same thing as the other command, just in a different table. You would probably have better luck with these types of questions in the #mysql channel | 23:01 |
| wrd | magellan: you can grep with -L and look for a lines that only have white spaces ? pattern should look somewhat like \s\+ or \s+ (not very good in grep style) | 23:01 |
| zvacet | benzaldehyde : gksudo gedit etc/apt/sources.list and in front of partner repo put # sign save and close sudo apt-geet update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 23:02 |

| bin_bash | oh | 23:04 |
| linux_is_my_hero | :-D | 23:04 |
| bin_bash | why not | 23:04 |
| wrd | antant: using the system libc to compile a binary for another kernel is a _very_ bad idea. i guess you need to adapt the build system and you defo should be able to install libc.a its either in libc6-dev or in libc6 | 23:04 |

| antant | Maybe the git didn't clone right | 23:05 |
| mbineganerdca | bin_bash: just use rsync | 23:05 |
| linux_is_my_hero | bin_bash: you can't move a folder that's being accessed. your home folder contains some hidden folders that keep track of last files opened, firefox favorites, backgrounds, etc. | 23:05 |
| wrd | antant: why should clone fail? you may be on the wrong branch? | 23:05 |
| pegnitz | i update the system yesterday, but after restart, the nm-applet just disappears. | 23:06 |
| linux_is_my_hero | bin_bash: so you could log out and do it from the tty, or do what i do: COPY the subfolders in the homefolder by selecting them all at once | 23:06 |
| antant | wrd: shouldn't be. On the one I'cve always been | 23:06 |
| mbineganerdca | bin_bash: you could right click copy and then right click paste, rsync is smart enough to pick up where it left off if it gets interupted part way through | 23:06 |
| bin_bash | mbineganerdca: Should I use rsync through the terminal? | 23:06 |
| genii-around | bin_bash: Because in Nautilus, drag and drop is moving the thing, not copying it. And also there are files open there. | 23:06 |
| bin_bash | genii-around: okay what should i do instead | 23:07 |
| j^ | http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ gives 404 here(via ipv6) | 23:08 |
| genii-around | bin_bash: as mbineganerdca suggested, use rsync | 23:08 |
| bin_bash | genii-around: how do i use rsync | 23:08 |
| genii-around | bin_bash: If you have grsync installed, it makes it fairly easy. But that's just a frontednd to the underlying command-line stuff which is better for you to look up examples if you want to do it that way | 23:10 |
| mbineganerdca | bin_bash: example "rsync -vau --progress /home/username /path/to/backup" | 23:10 |
| mbineganerdca | bin_bash: you could use a GUI front end as well | 23:11 |
| bin_bash | ok i'm installing grsync | 23:11 |
| barcef | is there a CLI equivalent to alsamixer for pulseaudio???? | 23:12 |
| bin_bash | grsync is trustworthy right | 23:12 |
| maco | bin_bash: yes, its commonly recommended | 23:13 |
| bin_bash | ok | 23:13 |
| naomi_ | I had an old wallpaper with the wallapaper as cube caps too. I've changed my wallpaper and deleted my cube caps but on my cube they still show up. How do I get rid of them? I've tried deleting but they're still there. | 23:13 |
| abahkaiyisah | can i use ubuntu-restricted-extras for lubuntu? | 23:13 |
| maco | abahkaiyisah: should work | 23:14 |
| bin_bash | mbineganerdca: in the options panel is there anything i should or shouldn't click? | 23:14 |
| abahkaiyisah | maco: thanks | 23:14 |
| Suhn | I booted linux today, and it wont connect to the internet. when i got to "network connections" nothing shows up. I have an ethernet cable plugged in | 23:14 |
| Suhn | I get perfect connections with windows | 23:14 |
| bonny | OMG HELP ME | 23:14 |
| bin_bash | bonny: that is unhelpful | 23:15 |
| bin_bash | !caps | bonny | 23:15 |
| ubottu | bonny: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 23:15 |
| bonny | i asked the question already | 23:15 |
| bastidrazor | bonny: your lack of giving a question prevents it. | 23:15 |
| Suhn | Please help^^^ | 23:15 |
| bonny | look up | 23:15 |
| benzaldehyde | "fetching file 10 of 1414." i am upgrading to 10.04 LTS. why didn't Ubuntu offer me an upgrade to 10.10 or 11.something, why 10.04? | 23:15 |
| maco | bonny: not recently | 23:15 |
| bonny | ok ill type it again | 23:15 |
| fede | somedy tried to compile gnome-shell latelly? | 23:15 |
| fede | somebody I meant | 23:15 |
| maco | bonny: the "up" key may scroll back through for you to repost | 23:16 |
| bonny | Ok I love the old classic game Doom. Now I want to play online so I downloaded python-zdaemon from lx terminal but which category will it be in and how would i open it from lx terminal | 23:16 |
| maco | bonny: if you run "dpkg -L python-zdaemon" it should show you all the files from that package. the file in question is likely in /usr/bin | 23:16 |
| sagredo | where is the natty support channel | 23:16 |
| maco | sagredo: #ubuntu+1 | 23:16 |
| sagredo | thx | 23:17 |
| benzaldehyde | sagredo: what is natty? | 23:17 |
| Suhn | I booted linux today, and it wont connect to the internet. when i got to "network connections" nothing shows up. I have an ethernet cable plugged in. I know the internet is fine, because when i use windows, it works fine. I have rebooted a few times. But it refuses to recognize the connections | 23:17 |
| Suhn | and it randomly started today | 23:17 |
| iceroot | benzaldehyde: ubuntu 11.04 | 23:17 |
| fede | gnome shell support chanell then? | 23:17 |
| bonny | but how do i run it all it shows is a bunch of fules | 23:17 |
| bin_bash | Suhn: did you try right-clicking | 23:17 |
| Suhn | Right clicking? | 23:17 |
| bin_bash | maco: in grsync are there any options i should enable or disable? | 23:17 |
| benzaldehyde | iceroot: i looked into downloading it, does not have a ppc image yet though | 23:18 |
| bin_bash | Suhn: yes on the icon | 23:18 |
| Suhn | What icon. There is no icon. I go into System>Preferences>Network Connections>Wired | 23:18 |
| fede | nobody? ... welll... thanks anyway | 23:18 |
| maco | bin_bash: thatd totally depend on your use case and what YOU want it to do | 23:18 |
| bin_bash | maco: I just want to be able to restore my home folder | 23:18 |
| LjL | how do i know whether i have a "Sound Blaster Audigy *4*"? does the fact that "lspci" says "Input device controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy Game Port (rev 03)" mean that it's a 3? if so, then why does Audacity seem to allow playing back at 96kHz (a 4 feature)? | 23:19 |
| maco | bin_bash: you're doing the backup right now? | 23:19 |
| bin_bash | maco: yes | 23:19 |
| Suhn | bin_bash: what icon? | 23:19 |
| maco | bin_bash: is there an "archive" option? rsync on the command line has that, and it just automatically includes all the options you'd want for a backup | 23:19 |
| iceroot | benzaldehyde: ppc is no lomnger supported imo | 23:19 |
| bin_bash | Suhn: in a panel, right clcik and select add to panel | 23:19 |
| bin_bash | Suhn: then select indicator applet | 23:20 |
| benzaldehyde | Suhn: what happens when you sudo dhclient device# | 23:20 |
| bin_bash | maco: no | 23:20 |
| joeoshawa | fixed the language pack problem thanks anyway | 23:20 |
| Suhn | Do you have any idea why it wont show up? | 23:20 |
| bonny | wow thnx for ignoring again | 23:20 |
| maco | bonny: ignoring = we have no clue | 23:20 |
| bin_bash | bonny: there are 1500 people here | 23:20 |
| maco | bin_bash: doesn't mean they're all actually at their keyboards | 23:20 |
| bonny | so | 23:20 |
| bin_bash | maco: that's my point | 23:20 |
| bin_bash | maco: not everyon can help everyone at every moment | 23:21 |
| genii-around | LjL: If lspci -nn reports 1102:0008 it's a 4 | 23:21 |
| bonny | can i play online multiplayer on chocolate doom | 23:21 |
| iceroot | bonny: try it? | 23:21 |
| bonny | how | 23:21 |
| benzaldehyde | iceroot: does not supported mean no more cdimages for ppc in the future or just that there is no 'advice' | 23:21 |
| iceroot | bonny: by running it | 23:21 |
| LjL | genii-around: boo it reports 1102:0004 :( | 23:21 |
| ozatomic | Hey guys, i am wanting to downgrade a package from apt as it is not working for me. How can i do this? | 23:21 |
| bonny | but there is no play onlien button on the game | 23:21 |
| benzaldehyde | fede: anybody, what? what is happening? | 23:21 |
| LjL | ozatomic: downgrading is not supported, however you can try sudo apt-get install packagename=versionnumber | 23:22 |
| iceroot | benzaldehyde: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/natty-desktop-powerpc.iso | 23:22 |
| maco | bonny: you can try ubuntuforums.org or askubuntu.com for it to be persistent instead of relying on someone being online RIGHT NOW | 23:22 |
| Suhn | benzaldehyde: no device | 23:22 |
| bonny | SWAYD maco | 23:22 |
| * LjL gives genii-around a bit of coffee anyway, even though he was the messenger of bad news | 23:22 | |

| robs58 | any ideas? | 23:22 |
| Suhn | bin_bash: indicator applet does nothing for about internet | 23:22 |
| genii-around | LjL: Heh, thanks :) | 23:22 |
| benzaldehyde | iceroot: wish i had met you days ago | 23:22 |
| iceroot | !sudo | robs58 | 23:23 |
| ubottu | robs58: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 23:23 |
| iceroot | benzaldehyde: or google :) | 23:23 |
| bonny | well im using ubuntu | 23:23 |

| Suhn | My server has been down for a long time because of this internet problem | 23:24 |
| Jasonn | How do I edit a file in terminal? | 23:24 |
| robs58 | iceroot...for reasons I can't really go into, it is necessary to use root....any ideas on what can be causing that message? | 23:24 |
| bin_bash | Jasonn: vi filename.ext | 23:24 |
| iceroot | robs58: there is no single reason to use root-shell instead of sudo | 23:24 |
| Jasonn | bin_bash: Thanks (I sometimes forget_ | 23:24 |
| th0r | Jasonn: nano might be easier to use than vi | 23:24 |
| KB1JWQ | Suhn: Does ifconfig show that the device is recognized, and has an IP? | 23:24 |
| iceroot | bonny: maybe ask the game developer | 23:24 |
| Jasonn | Thx | 23:25 |
| Suhn | Nope | 23:25 |
| Suhn | id used to | 23:25 |
| irvie | jasonn: may want to man vi so you can know how to save etc | 23:25 |
| Suhn | until this morning | 23:25 |
| irvie | it's in inherently intuitive | 23:25 |
| KB1JWQ | ubottu: Does dmesg say anything interesting about the device? | 23:25 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:25 |
| iceroot | robs58: and yes i know what is causing that message but having a root-account is not supported here | 23:25 |
| Jasonn | irvie: Thanks :) | 23:25 |
| benzaldehyde | iceroot: to be honest i probably couldn't use it, the 10.10 would not install on this and that iso looks like the right architecture but also i am on a ps3 so then it might not work for that reason alone. 9.10 is treating me fairly good all in all so no regrets | 23:25 |
| irvie | any idea how i would access an ipod in banshee? rhythmbox lists it on the side pane | 23:25 |
| irvie | Jasonn, np | 23:25 |
| KB1JWQ | Suhn: Does dmesg say anything interesting about the device? | 23:25 |
| iceroot | benzaldehyde: for the ps3 have a look at yellow-dog linux too | 23:26 |
| Suhn | That brings up 100 lines of stuff. and i have no idea what im looking for | 23:26 |
| benzaldehyde | iceroot: i had 6.1 before but it wasn't as widely used as ubuntu so i opted for this | 23:26 |
| bin_bash | mbineganerdca: you still here? | 23:26 |
| iceroot | benzaldehyde: the problem is there are no drivers for the vga (geohot-hack is making linux possible at the hardware not the hypervisor) | 23:27 |
| bin_bash | Anyone here familiar with rsync? | 23:27 |
| iceroot | bin_bash: #rsync, man rsync or ask a real question | 23:27 |
| benzaldehyde | Suhn: what happens when you sudo ifconfig eht0 up | 23:27 |
| bin_bash | iceroot: I would like to know how I know what the best options for me are | 23:28 |
| Suhn | I dont have time right now. Im booting into windows, ill get back tomorrow | 23:28 |
| iceroot | bin_bash: for what? | 23:28 |
| benzaldehyde | iceroot: sounds intelligently said although that is the problem, i have no idea what all that is | 23:28 |
| bin_bash | iceroot: I want to backup my home folder to my external so that when I re-install I can restore it | 23:28 |
| kcsrnd | bin_bash use tar? | 23:29 |
| iceroot | bin_bash: rsync -a sounds good | 23:30 |
| bin_bash | iceroot: thanks | 23:30 |
| iceroot | bin_bash: also if it is in the same hdd, hardlinks are a good idea | 23:30 |
| bin_bash | what are hardlinks? | 23:30 |
| polah | What is FlexNet? I got this error message when installing GRUB: /usr/sbin/grub-setup: warn: Sector 32 is already in use by FlexNet; avoiding it. This software may cause boot or other problems in future. Please ask its authors not to store data in the boot track.. | 23:31 |
| iceroot | bin_bash: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_link | 23:31 |
| maco | bin_bash: i use rsync -av src dest | 23:31 |
| iceroot | bin_bash: if you make a backup on another drive, hardlinks are not interesting for you | 23:31 |

| benzaldehyde | iceroot: these downloads are painfully slow. when is ubuntu going to get a faster connection? my upgrade is only 700 Mb but is teetering between 2 and 3 hours remaining | 23:32 |

| chotaz | good night everyone, I'm thinking of permanently ditch out M$'s OS and switch to ubuntu 10.10 until 11.04 comes out, I just need one last think clarified before i go format, I need a good mp3/flac player(library feature is essencial) and a movie player which allows me to play HD 1080p perfectly(yes, my hardware can handle these) with softsub support. Any suggestions? | 23:33 |
| chotaz | thing* | 23:34 |
| chotaz | If there any media player that combines both, that'd be perfect. | 23:34 |
| semitones | chotaz, the defaults are good | 23:34 |

| ddbt_nl | how can i put vim syntax on in the terminal on a default natty (beta) installation? | 23:34 |
| Xiol | Hello! I would like to display a message after Server 10.04 has finished booting, but before the login: prompt is displayed. Where should this go, and will it support basic bash scripting? | 23:34 |
| chotaz | semitones, I kinda want the best, how good is good? | 23:35 |
| semitones | chotaz, rhythmbox and totem | 23:35 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, :syntax on | 23:35 |
| semitones | i like em | 23:35 |
| semitones | what's best is up to you | 23:35 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, you meant syntax highlight, right? | 23:35 |
| benzaldehyde | chotaz: i wonder if the GeeK Squad could answer those questions | 23:35 |
| ddbt_nl | yes | 23:35 |
| ddbt_nl | but i get an error message then | 23:35 |
| chotaz | benzaldehyde, Geek Squad? | 23:36 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, which one? | 23:36 |
| ddbt_nl | wait, i'll copy it montrieux | 23:36 |
| Xiol | chotaz: Like everyone on the Internet, you live in America. Don't deny it. | 23:36 |
| semitones | chotaz, the great thing about ubuntu is it's easy to install many programs and decide which you like best | 23:36 |
| chotaz | Xiol, I'm actually Portuguese :s | 23:36 |
| ddbt_nl | e319.. command is not available... | 23:36 |
| Xiol | chotaz: I was being sarcastic ;) | 23:36 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, please use irc autocompletion on my nickname so I'll get a notification that you sent me a message | 23:36 |
| benzaldehyde | chotaz: in USA there is a Geek Squad at BestBuy | 23:36 |
| ddbt_nl | how do you do autocompletion? | 23:36 |
| ddbt_nl | (empathy) | 23:37 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, type the first few letters, then <TAB> | 23:37 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: i see | 23:37 |
| ddbt_nl | like this? | 23:37 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: like this? | 23:37 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, yes | 23:37 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: i get an error message | 23:37 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: that the command is not available | 23:37 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, did you install the full version of vim? I think there's a "smaller" one. | 23:37 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, try to run sudo apt-get install vim | 23:38 |
| chotaz | semitones, one of the things I'm not yet familiar yet in linux based OS's is how to completly remove programs from the computer, I understand packages make it easy and most of them have uninstall features embed, I'm more refering to tarball installing or manually compiling sources or w/e it's the proper term. | 23:38 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: the default version that came with natty (beta) | 23:38 |
| chotaz | familiar with* | 23:38 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, you may have to install the "full" verstion then | 23:38 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: strange that such a thing does not work out of the box | 23:38 |
| edbian | chotaz, Actually. If you install a package there is ALWAYS an uninstall (via the package manager). The exact opposite is true with source you compile. There is sometimes an uninstaller and usually it's a crap shoot figuring out what files were dumped where. | 23:39 |
| grusum | ddbt_nl: it is vim-runtime for the full version | 23:39 |
| benzaldehyde | Xiol: corporations are everywhere, who is to say the geek squad isn't in other countries? | 23:39 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, well, I guess that space on a CD is very limited, so choices have to be made | 23:39 |
| chotaz | edbian, that's exactly what I was refering to, and I wanna keep my computer 'clean' from unused, unnecessary files alap | 23:39 |
| semitones | chotaz, in most cases you don't need to compile from source because the program you want is in the repositories already. But if you do, use a program called 'checkinstall' which makes it as easy to remove as any package | 23:40 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: works like charm, great | 23:40 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: thanks | 23:40 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, you're welcome | 23:40 |
| Xiol | benzaldehyde: Assuming they are is very ignorant. | 23:40 |
| b1lly | is xmpp server in the repository of linux? | 23:40 |
| zvacet | chotaz : if you compiled package then you have folder and inside that folder try sudo make uninstall | 23:40 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: still weird it dos not come out of the box.. | 23:40 |
| edbian | chotaz, Well how many things did you download and install from source? If you wanna remove them you'll have to go through them one at a time and figure out what files they dumped and remove them. | 23:40 |
| benzaldehyde | Xiol: i assumed they weren't which is why i mentioned it | 23:40 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: do you happen to know the reason for that? | 23:40 |
| chotaz | semitones, checkinstall hum? seem's promising | 23:40 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, well, it sort of makes sense: non-specialist users are quite unlikely to use vim | 23:41 |
| benzaldehyde | Xiol: assuming you know it all is ignorant | 23:41 |
| semitones | edbian, checkinstall is good too | 23:41 |
| chotaz | edbian, I'm yet to format, was just getting some doubt answered first | 23:41 |
| Tec|Tec1 | ubuntu 10.10; nvidia drivers: my laptop hibernated recently and when it woke back up it no longer recognized all the of resolutions of my external monitor. It should go up to 1280x1024 but the highest 4:3 it shows is 1024x768 any ideas on how to get it to go to 1280x1024? | 23:41 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, and they ship nano anyway, so I guess one command-line text editor is enough | 23:41 |
| benzaldehyde | Xiol: you weren't being sarcastic, you were being sardonic | 23:41 |
| michele | hi all | 23:41 |
| benzaldehyde | Xiol: there is a difference | 23:41 |
| lmontrieux | hi michele | 23:41 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: yeah, but if you ship vi(m) in the default setup.. why not add syntax support to it? | 23:42 |
| Xiol | benzaldehyde: Have you finished? | 23:42 |
| michele | i need a little help, i've installed some upgrades from maverick-proposed... can i revert it? | 23:42 |
| chotaz | ok one last thing before last rebooting from windows, how easy is it to upgrade from a version to a new one on ubuntu lik 10-10-11-04 when it comes out, should i just wait? | 23:42 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, I have no idea :) | 23:42 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: thanks anyway! | 23:42 |
| chotaz | btw: is there any release date announced? | 23:42 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, cheers | 23:42 |
| benzaldehyde | Xiol: no mister bond--i'm just gettin' warmed up | 23:42 |
| ricorx7 | chotaz: one button | 23:42 |
| lmontrieux | chotaz, it's press-a-button-and-wait-a-bit easy :) | 23:42 |
| mbineganerdca | ddbt_nl: I don't vim is shipped by default, which is what you are looking for with all the syntax goodness | 23:43 |
| michele | ... | 23:43 |
| chotaz | awesome as f*ck, ok guys, I'm sold, gonna format this rig right away. | 23:43 |
| lmontrieux | michele, sort answer is "no" | 23:43 |
| ddbt_nl | mbineganerdca: vim gets shipped by default with natty at least | 23:43 |
| giiker | chotaz: I usually wait for bugs to be worked out ( specially security bugs, if any) and sometimes upgrade, but the last 2 versions I clean installed | 23:43 |
| chotaz | so totem, rythom, checkinstall and an 'upgrade' button answer everything i was really concerned about. | 23:43 |
| lmontrieux | michele, longer answer is "yes, but it's very very complicated" | 23:43 |
| ddbt_nl | mbineganerdca: and i think it gets shipped with older versions too.. | 23:44 |
| zvacet | michele : do you mean uninstall yes look in synaptic with packages belongs to that repo and uninstall them | 23:44 |
| bonny | BATARDS FUCK U ALL | 23:44 |
| chotaz | giiker, clean install as in reformatting? | 23:44 |
| LjL | bonny: ok | 23:44 |

| ubottu | bonny: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 23:44 |
| benzaldehyde | bonny: promise? | 23:44 |
| chotaz | boony, ok, you may go the same way you came in now. | 23:44 |
| mbineganerdca | ddbt_nl: I always end up installing vim as one of the first things I do | 23:44 |
| bastidrazor | bonny: climb a tree. | 23:44 |
| maco | bin_bash: i usually do, though it is *Possible* to get some weirdness if you happen to be editing a file at the moment it is copied | 23:44 |
| zvacet | !language | bonny | 23:44 |
| Xiol | bonny: I would very much like to make love to you. | 23:44 |
| michele | doh | 23:44 |
| bonny | fail go jump in a hole | 23:44 |
| giiker | chotaz:I usally keep my home partition ( my documents in winblows) and create the other from scratch | 23:44 |
| ddbt_nl | mbineganerdca: i know.. but "vi" is available for you at the command line right away | 23:45 |
| bin_bash | maco: konversation logs | 23:45 |
| benzaldehyde | bonny: your hole? | 23:45 |
| mbineganerdca | ddbt_nl: the vim that is there by default is either a symlink to vi or it is very stripped down | 23:45 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, vi != vim | 23:45 |
| maco | benzaldehyde: stop | 23:45 |
| bonny | hey | 23:45 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: i know it is not the same | 23:45 |
| bonny | Tehee srry | 23:45 |
| benzaldehyde | maco: she started it | 23:45 |
| mbineganerdca | ddbt_nl: yup, which is fine for quick and dirty, I just am spoiled by the full meal deal of vim | 23:45 |
| maco | benzaldehyde: and i'm stopping it | 23:45 |
| chotaz | giiker, yeah I was thinking about leavin 80gb apart if i ever feel the rush to play something again (i.e. when diablo3 comes out) xd | 23:45 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: but vim is available under the vi command | 23:45 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, sure | 23:45 |
| benzaldehyde | maco: alrighty then | 23:45 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux, mbineganerdca: guess we tackled it | 23:46 |
| giiker | chotaz: believe me, you won come back to winblows, the only reason I was still using it, untill last summer, it was because i did not have a driver for my scanner, but amazingly found one by canon on their Asian website, amazzing | 23:46 |
| shcherbak | !minimal | 23:47 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 23:47 |
| chotaz | giiker, im affraid it wont be that easy since I'm a compulsive gamer | 23:47 |
| Xiol | Oh god, here we go... | 23:47 |
| mbineganerdca | ddbt_nl: good to hear, I just stepped back | 23:48 |
| benzaldehyde | Xiol: you're so negative, open up some windows, let the air in | 23:48 |
| giiker | chotaz: I have never felt more in control of what i can really do, imagine this, if you have the guts and push, you can even compile your own kernel and then buold your own distro... | 23:48 |
| chotaz | giiker, I'm in | 23:48 |
| chotaz | brb in about 30 mins when I'm done formating | 23:48 |
| Xiol | benzaldehyde: Hard not to be when this place is like the blind leading the blind. | 23:48 |
| lmontrieux | chotaz, well, if you're a compulsive gamer, Linux may look like rehab, then :) | 23:49 |
| benzaldehyde | Xiol: you know what they say, in the land of the blind | 23:49 |
| chotaz | off I am to a better IT future. | 23:49 |
| giiker | chotaz: goopd luck, and remember to never get frustated when you don get the help you need, sometimes you have to figure it out yourself... | 23:50 |

| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: i notice it behaves quite diffrerently than the "default" version that comes with natty.. like the backspace button.. that is better now! | 23:50 |
| b1lly | anyone got any guides on xmpp? | 23:50 |
| pooltable | help how to installed Android SDK | 23:50 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, the "default" version is a bit weird, really. First thing I do usually is to install vim and emacs :) | 23:51 |
| lmontrieux | b1lly, client or server ? | 23:51 |
| b1lly | server | 23:51 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: don't know about emacs.. just learning vim haha | 23:51 |
| b1lly | and clients really | 23:51 |
| lmontrieux | b1lly, http://xmpp.org/xmpp-software/servers/ | 23:51 |
| b1lly | i wanna learn more about it and xmpp.org doesnt tell you much | 23:51 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: which one is better in your opinion? | 23:51 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, well it's really almost a religious question :). More seriously, I use both, but for different things: vim to edit config files and emacs to write LaTeX and code | 23:52 |
| b1lly | lmontrieux: Idk which one to choose theres like 30 diff servers | 23:52 |
| lmontrieux | b1lly, don't really know, I've never run an xmpp server :) | 23:53 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: well.. i'm just learning it for ruby on rails development purposes.. would it be the right one to learn? | 23:53 |
| b1lly | what is the purpose of ruby? is it a web development language? | 23:53 |
| geogeek1 | lmontrieux:thanks :) | 23:53 |
| Xiol | b1lly: interpreted language. not restricted to web development | 23:54 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, there's both really powerful editors. It's really just a quesiton of personal preference. You may want to give both a try, and pick the one you prefer | 23:54 |

| BigWhale | Greetings... is there a dedicated QA channel? | 23:56 |
| th0r | BigWhale: for ubuntu? this is it | 23:56 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: before i go.. is there a convenient way to work on more than one documents (like a html and css file) from within one terminal? | 23:57 |
| lmontrieux | BigWhale, #ubuntu-quality | 23:57 |
| ddbt_nl | lmontrieux: or one vi instance | 23:57 |
| pooltable | help how to installed Android SDK | 23:57 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, yes. At the terminal level you may want to try GNU screen, which allows you to split your term | 23:57 |
| BigWhale | lmontrieux, just found it yes. thanks. | 23:58 |
| Xiol | pooltable: follow instructions on the Android website, they're pretty comprehensive | 23:58 |
| lmontrieux | ddbt_nl, at the editor level, both vim and emacs also allow you to split the screen | 23:58 |
| DaPenguin | ddbt_nl, most term apps do tabs, or you could look into emacs, supports multiple buffers | 23:58 |
| pooltable | xiol thanks | 23:58 |
