[07:58] <philipballew> if im running a ubuntu server that stores peoples files with xp running machines should i scan for viruses?
[08:15] <philipballew> if im running a ubuntu server that stores peoples files with xp running machines should i scan for viruses?
[08:21] <geirha> philipballew: Probably not a bad idea. Wouldn't want your windows users to get a virus from your share.
[08:22] <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...
[08:23] <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
[15:04] <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?
[17:46] <coalwater> welcome back ubot2 lol
[18:01] <sabiera> hi
[18:03] <Sidewinder1> Hello
[18:03] <sabiera> hi
[19:14] <Sidewinder1> Greetings bodhi_zazen  Nice to see you here.
[19:23]  * Sidewinder1 Feels like bodhi_zazen is ignoring him.. Not a problem; I am more aware of the mega-contributions and time that you spend. I just wanted to say Hi...
[19:39] <Omsniffiscent> My update manager is being weird. Giving me this error, is this serious? W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-desktop/gnome3-builds/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/source/Sources.gz  404  Not Found
[19:40] <bodhi_zazen> 'lo Sidewinder1 , busy @ work at the moment, but hi =)
[19:41] <Sidewinder1> Just a "Hi" from you makes my day. I'm not kiddin'. :-)
[19:41] <robbmunson> bodhi_zazen! VERY long time no see...then again...I've not been here in quite some time.
[19:46] <Sidewinder1> Have a great day all! It's shower time; ie: the fifth Tuesday in the month...
[19:47] <bodhi_zazen> robbmunson: I've been lurking on this channel, here most work days
[19:48] <robbmunson> Like I said..I myself haven't been here in a while. :)
[20:02] <philipballew> how can i hook up ssh on a dynamic ip?
[20:04] <holstein> philipballew: i use dyndns
[20:05] <holstein> http://www.dyndns.com/
[20:06] <holstein> Omsniffiscent: have you added sources?
[20:06] <holstein> hmm, actually that looks like a PPA source for gnome3
[20:07] <holstein> i would try disabling it, and see how it goes.. (disable or purge)
[20:08] <Omsniffiscent> Uh yes I did install gnome3 but I went back to gnome 2.
[20:08] <Omsniffiscent> How do I remove gnome 3?
[20:09] <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/
[20:10] <Omsniffiscent> Thank you.
[20:17] <Anime-girl> hello
[20:18] <Anime-girl> I just installed ubuntu 10.04 on my dell inspiron mini, and had to install the wifi drivers, not a big deal
[20:19] <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*
[20:21] <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
[20:22] <holstein> Anime-girl: by whatever means you boot linux and whatever else
[20:22] <holstein> just point the bootloader to the older kernel
[20:23] <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)
[20:24] <holstein> Anime-girl: one of the first things i do is unhide grub
[20:24] <holstein> sudo nano /etc/default/grub
[20:25] <holstein> comment out #GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
[20:26] <holstein> you'll need to run sudo update-grub afterwards before rebooting
[20:27] <Anime-girl> ok stnady by
[20:27] <Anime-girl> stand*
[20:30] <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 :)
[20:31] <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*
[20:40] <philipballew_> holstein, how would i install this onto my ubuntu server though?
[20:41] <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
[20:42] <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?
[20:43] <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
[20:44] <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
[20:45] <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
[20:46] <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
[20:47] <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
[20:48] <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
[20:50] <DarkwingDuck> hey hggdh
[20:51] <hggdh> hi DarkwingDuck
[21:11] <elks294> i installed vmware and somehow i have two virtual wirless interfaces now vmnet 7 vmnet 8 can i delete these for good somehow
[21:31] <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?
[21:48] <Anime-girl> anyone know why I can't do full screen with dual monitors?
[22:01] <A_B_> Anime-girl: I has to do with a limitation in X. I tried that myself
[22:27] <elks294> how can i figure out which GPU is in my ubuntu system
[22:27] <bioterror> lspci |grep VGA
[22:33] <philipballew> How can i tell grub to not show the boot menu and then select the default kernel to boot into?
[22:36] <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
[22:37] <coalwater> u mean like 0 = unlimited? im not sure
[22:37] <coalwater> then set it to 1 lol
[23:41] <Anime-girl> a_b: HMMM thats interesting, how do I get the X settings?
[23:59] <mordagar> hello all. i need some heeelp!
