| zus | hello everyone its been a long while | 14:19 |
| mhall119 | hello zus | 14:19 |
| zus | mhall119: howdy | 14:19 |
| mhall119 | btw, everybody, 11.04 is officially released | 14:20 |
| zus | i looking for a cd to try the new ubuntu. | 14:20 |
| zus | ive got it seeding right now | 14:20 |
| mhall119 | zus: if you have a USB stick, you can convert the ISO to USB using startup disk creator | 14:20 |
| zus | i can use an old live disc and use the cd creator right? | 14:21 |
| zus | i got a 2.0 gig kingston stick | 14:22 |
| DammitJim | 11.04 party? | 14:27 |
| mhall119 | DammitJim: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/811/detail/ | 14:27 |
| DammitJim | Lake Buena Vista party woohoo! | 14:29 |
| zus | so wot do you guys think about the unity desktop? or have youse not tried it? | 14:29 |
| mhall119 | zus: I've tried it from a live session, I think I'll be able to adapt okay | 14:30 |
| zus | ive grown to like and use KXstudios, but i think its ppa now can be unsed in any *buntu distro so im looking forward to that | 14:32 |
| zus | i wonder wot goodies are abound in Kubuntu. ive gotten lazy and picked up a laptop but still has vista on it.. | 14:34 |
| DammitJim | man, I had no idea that rsync used so much cpu! | 14:53 |
| maxolasersquad | zus: It is my understanding that they decided to not try to backport Unity as it would take too much work, and would distract from getting it working solid on current releases. | 15:01 |
| maxolasersquad | zus: Running Vista on a laptop seems like a lot of work to me. | 15:02 |
| zus | lol it isnt very good | 15:02 |
| zus | vista | 15:02 |
| maxolasersquad | I have it in a VM. It took me four whole days to simply update the thing. | 15:03 |
| maxolasersquad | Well, four days, not four whole days. | 15:03 |
| zus | its a lot of work | 15:04 |
| zus | i dont do updates, i only use windows to play runes of magic | 15:04 |
| zus | so i dont need all the securit updates and stuff.. | 15:04 |
| zus | hey guys i have uploaded 11.04 to demonoid. may i post the link? | 15:08 |
| mhall119 | you're mirroring? | 15:12 |
| zus | mhall119: no dont think so... i got the files this morning though around 7.30ish | 15:17 |
| zus | but iits both kubuntu and ubuntu 32 and 64 bits in one pull. | 15:17 |
| mhall119 | zus: no harm in linking then | 15:18 |
| zus | http://www.demonoid.me/files/details/2619104/003393660056/ | 15:18 |
| zus | well if ya pull from hte link seed and enjoy :) | 15:21 |
| zus | thanks | 15:21 |
| zus | nice my original download of kubuntu from this am is almost 1.0 seeded and my upload has begun seeding 3 peers :) yay for me. | 15:39 |
| zus | mhall119: im using the universal usb installer . and on a 2 gig thumb drive how big should the persistent file size for storing changes be? | 15:56 |
| mhall119 | zus: if you're just going to use it to install, you don't really need persistent file | 15:58 |
| mhall119 | that's only for if you use it as a live session over and over again, and want to keep stuff saved between uses | 15:58 |
| zus | i'd like that this way i can carry the drive between different pcs and places and not my entire machine any more | 15:59 |
| zus | nvm i reread that ... | 16:00 |
| bluebomber | Hello | 16:55 |
| zoopster | munz_werk: can you shoot me your email in a PM, please | 20:15 |
| zoopster | itnet7: the recovery for our balloon launch is closer to titusville this time around...if you are so inclined I'll put you on the email list | 20:15 |
| * mhall119 is on Unity now | 20:43 | |

| shadowchaser | Hello all I have a question for someone concerning how to transfer files over ubuntu | 22:30 |
| shadowchaser | hello zoopster I think we have talked before if Im not mistaken you have helped me on a few of my problems learning ubuntu | 22:32 |
| zoopster | hey shadowchaser | 22:33 |
| shadowchaser | hello zoopster I am having somewhat of a problem is there anyway to trnasfer files from a main computer to another while in a vnc connection? | 22:34 |
| zoopster | sure | 22:36 |
| zoopster | you can use SCP to copy files or directories | 22:36 |
| shadowchaser | SCP? I tried a samba share but I am somewhat lost there | 22:37 |
| zoopster | scp comes with openssh | 22:37 |
| zoopster | ssh is secure shell where scp is secure copy protocol | 22:37 |
| zoopster | scp <filename or directory> user@target:. (for the default local directory) | 22:38 |
| zoopster | not sure how you are connected | 22:38 |
| zoopster | now vnc has a file copy mech too as I recall | 22:38 |
| shadowchaser | Im really new to all this I am trying to figure all this out and somewhat teach myself | 22:39 |
| zoopster | ok so you you are vnc'd into a linux box, correct? | 22:40 |
| shadowchaser | yes I set my laptop up to vnc into a small ad display box that I am using and I can control it but I have yet to figure out how to transfer files | 22:41 |
| zoopster | can you access the ad display box via ssh? | 22:43 |
| shadowchaser | not sure how to do that! I just figured out how to vnc with many hours of trial and error ! | 22:44 |
| zoopster | ah ok | 22:44 |
| zoopster | is the ad box accessible via the public net? | 22:45 |
| zoopster | or a private net | 22:45 |
| shadowchaser | Not yet I am using a crossover cable at this moment but eventually I plan on hooking them up to the net to update from home rather than manually updating at the place there deployed | 22:46 |
| zoopster | ok | 22:48 |
| zoopster | and it's running ubuntu desktop | 22:49 |
| shadowchaser | correct Ad Box Is a mini-itx motherboard with one gigi of ram and ubuntu is installed on a 8 gig flash drive simple but it works great for what I want it to do | 22:50 |
| zoopster | so use this page to copy the files https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/TransferFiles | 22:52 |
| zoopster | the best thing to do is open the software center and search for openssh and install openssh server on the target machine | 22:54 |
| zoopster | (the ad box) | 22:54 |
| zoopster | the default setup will allow for password auth of existing users and use the page above to transfer files | 22:55 |
| shadowchaser | wow that is simple | 22:55 |
| zoopster | I'd suggest removing openssh server from the target when you are done or learn how to lock it down by changing the default port, removing password auth and using publickey authentication only | 22:57 |
| shadowchaser | do I need openssh on the ad box to transfer the files ? or will it be easier with it | 22:58 |
| zoopster | the ad box is where you are tranferring to right? | 23:00 |
| zoopster | if so that's where you want openssh-server | 23:00 |
| zoopster | the client is already installed by default in ubuntu desktop | 23:00 |
| zoopster | so you have the ssh and scp commands available from your machine you are copying from | 23:01 |
| shadowchaser | I see so everytime I want to update my file on my ad serer I would have to reinstall the server right if I remove it off of the ad box | 23:02 |
| shadowchaser | my main goal is to get all my ad boxes on the net that way I can log on to them from my office to update them when I want to post a new ad to them . | 23:05 |
| shadowchaser | zoopster you must work with computers daily? | 23:08 |
| zoopster | yea...but not in a sysadmin capacity | 23:16 |
| zoopster | so you probably want to look into rsync | 23:16 |
| zoopster | or even easier would be ubuntu one | 23:16 |
| zoopster | that way you can drop a file into a directory on one box and have the rest pick it up | 23:16 |
| zoopster | or you can keep openssh-server on the ad boxes and scp it when you want...but that will get cumbersome for large numbers of boxes | 23:17 |
| shadowchaser | yea I have thought about ubuntu one! I have also thought of a Cloud network with the boxes pointed at a specific file on my cloud but setting it up is way over my head | 23:18 |
| shadowchaser | well each ad box is running different ads at different locations | 23:18 |
| shadowchaser | well zoopster the kiddos are crying for mcdonalds sooo guess I need to feed the masses! thanks for the help and Ill let you know how it goes! thanks again very much as always your a big help | 23:25 |
| zus | if anyone missed it this morning,: http://www.demonoid.me/files/details/2619104/003393660056/ | 23:28 |
| zus | i uploaded to demonoid | 23:28 |
| brybot | hey guys. I am running 11.04 live cd on top of a 10.04 installation. The new launch bar on the side is not showing up. Is it because of the underlying installation? | 23:28 |
| zoopster | brybot: nope | 23:36 |
| zoopster | if you are running the livecd then you booted into it so it's running off of the cd and nothing related to any other install is affecting it | 23:36 |
| brybot | someone told me its because I need the nvidia driver, which is not enabled during livecd | 23:37 |
| brybot | is that right? | 23:37 |
| zoopster | probably | 23:37 |
