| philipballew | if im running a ubuntu server that stores peoples files with xp running machines should i scan for viruses? | 07:58 |
| philipballew | if im running a ubuntu server that stores peoples files with xp running machines should i scan for viruses? | 08:15 |
| geirha | philipballew: Probably not a bad idea. Wouldn't want your windows users to get a virus from your share. | 08:21 |
| philipballew | might make Ubuntu look bad... we dont want that haha | 08:22 |
| geirha | !antivirus | 08:22 |
| ubot2 | Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 08:22 |
| geirha | That page has some software you can use iirc | 08:22 |
| philipballew | haha that says it... | 08:22 |
| philipballew | one more question for the day... | 08:23 |
| philipballew | how can i get grub2 too know what os to automaticly boot and therefor hide the boot menu? | 08:23 |
| philipballew | i havent edited grub since they were using anything before grub 2 | 08:23 |

| shimonmds | Hey People! Installation question: I tried to install Ubuntu on my Windows 7 system. It didn't fully install because it couldn't find a certain iso file (?), I tried to uninstall and start over, but nothing helped. Now I can't get rid of the dual-boot option whenever I turn the computer on. How do I get rid of that--or at least get Ubuntu to work? | 15:04 |
| coalwater | welcome back ubot2 lol | 17:46 |

| philipballew | how can i hook up ssh on a dynamic ip? | 20:02 |
| holstein | philipballew: i use dyndns | 20:04 |
| holstein | http://www.dyndns.com/ | 20:05 |
| holstein | Omsniffiscent: have you added sources? | 20:06 |
| holstein | hmm, actually that looks like a PPA source for gnome3 | 20:06 |
| holstein | i would try disabling it, and see how it goes.. (disable or purge) | 20:07 |
| Omsniffiscent | Uh yes I did install gnome3 but I went back to gnome 2. | 20:08 |
| Omsniffiscent | How do I remove gnome 3? | 20:08 |
| Omsniffiscent | (It's not made of easy.) | 20:09 |
| holstein | Omsniffiscent: i would check out http://bigbrovar.aoizora.org/index.php/2010/01/10/how-to-safely-remove-ppa-repository-from-ubuntu/ | 20:09 |
| Omsniffiscent | Thank you. | 20:10 |
| Anime-girl | hello | 20:17 |
| Anime-girl | I just installed ubuntu 10.04 on my dell inspiron mini, and had to install the wifi drivers, not a big deal | 20:18 |
| Anime-girl | but after running some updates, specifically the kernal headre updates, my wifi is not working anymore | 20:19 |
| holstein | Anime-girl: it happens | 20:19 |
| Anime-girl | and ive tried to recompile and install the drivers, but its not working | 20:19 |
| holstein | theres nothing particularly wrong with just running the old kernel* | 20:19 |
| Anime-girl | ok, so how do I go back to the old kernel? | 20:21 |
| holstein | i have had tricky setups in the past where i just set it in grub to boot an older kernel | 20:21 |
| Anime-girl | what if I don't have grub? | 20:21 |
| holstein | ive never done anything more permanent, since i wanted to try newer kernels | 20:21 |
| holstein | Anime-girl: by whatever means you boot linux and whatever else | 20:22 |
| holstein | just point the bootloader to the older kernel | 20:22 |
| Anime-girl | I don't have a bootloader, it just boots straight into ubuntu | 20:23 |
| holstein | you probably have grub, and its just hidden | 20:23 |
| holstein | !grub | 20:23 |
| ubot2 | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10) | 20:23 |
| holstein | Anime-girl: one of the first things i do is unhide grub | 20:24 |
| holstein | sudo nano /etc/default/grub | 20:24 |
| holstein | comment out #GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 | 20:25 |
| holstein | you'll need to run sudo update-grub afterwards before rebooting | 20:26 |
| Anime-girl | ok stnady by | 20:27 |
| Anime-girl | stand* | 20:27 |
| holstein | Anime-girl: you get a grub list? | 20:30 |
| Anime-girl | yay!!! | 20:30 |
| Anime-girl | yup got the wifi working again | 20:30 |
| holstein | Anime-girl: cool :) | 20:30 |
| holstein | thats the path of least resistance i say | 20:31 |
| holstein | you should look for, and get involved in a bug report, or make one for your hardware and the latest kernel | 20:31 |
| holstein | just so the kernel team knows about it* | 20:31 |

| philipballew_ | holstein, how would i install this onto my ubuntu server though? | 20:40 |
| holstein | philipballew_: i have a ddwrt router and it has a place for entering the dyndns account info | 20:41 |
| holstein | it updates the dyndns domain name if my IP changes | 20:41 |
| philipballew_ | alright. ill look at my router. its a 2wire | 20:41 |
| holstein | philipballew_: i didnt have it back when i ran windows, so i used the updater software in XP | 20:42 |
| holstein | i know theres updater software for linux too though | 20:42 |
| philipballew_ | update what. the router? | 20:42 |
| philipballew_ | or update the ip? | 20:43 |
| holstein | philipballew_: it updates the domain name to point at your IP | 20:43 |
| philipballew_ | oh i see. there's probably a guide somewhere. i dont immagine it comes standard with ubuntu-server | 20:43 |
| holstein | philipballew_: i think theres a package in the repos | 20:44 |
| philipballew_ | alright. that would be nice then i can just apt-get it | 20:44 |
| holstein | i remember trying to set it up in fedora, but i ended up going with ddwrt on the router, and it solved more than just that issue | 20:44 |
| philipballew_ | so if i logged in to my router i could see if it supports ddwrt probably | 20:45 |
| holstein | philipballew_: i think its going to be ddclient - address updating utility for dynamic DNS services | 20:45 |
| holstein | or ipcheck - Dyndns.org client to register your dynamic IP address | 20:45 |
| holstein | philipballew_: im pretty sure those 2wire modem/routers dont, but it wont hurt to look | 20:45 |
| philipballew_ | sudo apt-get ddclient should probably work then. what ip address do i give dyndns then? | 20:46 |
| holstein | apt-get install* | 20:46 |
| holstein | philipballew_: you'll see, you set up an account, and the ip will be dynamic of course | 20:46 |
| holstein | the updater just checks everynow and then *whatever time interval you set | 20:47 |
| holstein | and if the IP has changed, it tells dyndns, and the domain you set points to the new IP :) | 20:47 |
| philipballew_ | alright. ill have some fun this afternoon. im setting up a media server to store music files i can play then in mutiple rooms in the house | 20:47 |
| holstein | yeah, it works quite well for me with ssh | 20:48 |
| holstein | i need a nap though... good luck :) | 20:48 |
| philipballew_ | alright. sleep well my friend | 20:48 |

| A_B_ | Question: Why when adding a user he's automatically added to a group by his username and not added to the "users" group? | 21:31 |
| Anime-girl | anyone know why I can't do full screen with dual monitors? | 21:48 |
| A_B_ | Anime-girl: I has to do with a limitation in X. I tried that myself | 22:01 |
| elks294 | how can i figure out which GPU is in my ubuntu system | 22:27 |
| bioterror | lspci |grep VGA | 22:27 |
| philipballew | How can i tell grub to not show the boot menu and then select the default kernel to boot into? | 22:33 |
| coalwater | philipballew, maybe u can set the count down timer to zero, i know it's a silly work around but that's what i could thing of | 22:36 |
| philipballew | thats an intresting point because ive had sometimes the times appear at zero and other times there is no timer at all | 22:36 |
| coalwater | u mean like 0 = unlimited? im not sure | 22:37 |
| coalwater | then set it to 1 lol | 22:37 |
| Anime-girl | a_b: HMMM thats interesting, how do I get the X settings? | 23:41 |
