[00:08] My screen has developed a yellow ting. it is fine in windows and safe mode so i'm guessing it's driver related. anyway, what should i do?

[00:19] Farith, ive had issues with usb being slow. but never heard of ide/sata slowness [00:19] Yay :P Almost done tweaking :3 [00:19] Farith, If it is because of the userspace fs, then it should be faster if you can use a larger read/write block size. See if cp alows you to control for that. but I have no idea if that is really the cause [00:19] video performance on my new samsung series 9 sucks [00:19] weird thing is...its on the same dang machine....

[00:26] sta7ic: Anyway. You could ask in #web for suggestions. Some people do use gedit/geany for their web.

[00:28] Reacon, vino shares the CUrrent desktop.. others DONT (well x11vnc does) [00:29] Reacon, you could have a dozen tightvnc sessions goind with differnt users/desktops [00:29] Buttons840: Tweak the startup scripts. [00:29] dr_willis: That might be useful. I'll get back to you later if I run into any kinks. [00:30] Corey: they look like auto-generated bash script, is that really the way to do it?

[00:34] iceroot: I run http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/squid-deb-proxy - might be all you need instead of a full mirror [00:35] iceroot, that apt-cacher-ng server is also handy [00:35] I found this comment "Wireless (Atheros AR9285) works out of the box, but connection is flaky.

Am blind, so still waiting on the GUI to be worth a crap. [00:36] but Natty is newer than Karmic, so this information is obviously outdated.

How do I mount it, or find out the /dev entry? [00:37] CarlFK: its the same as apt-proxy i guess which is downloading the package on the first host and all other hosts are asking host1 if he already has the package cached [00:37] hi how can i remove the app and folder icon in laucher?? :) [00:38] iceroot: yeah, I think so. I ran 2 other proxy like things before squid - both were a pain. never bothered to build a mirror. [00:38] stercor, 'dmesg' command or 'blkid' or 'sudo fdisk -l' [00:38] stercor, then use the proper mount command. [00:38] stercor: see if https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB help [00:38] Thanks! I'm off and running. [00:39] CarlFK: the problem with squid was that squid was caching the packages-file and then apt-get was running in many many errors because the packages-file was to old...

[01:22] Osmodivs: looks pretty normal from here, all users have read permissions, that's all you need to use a font [01:22] CarlIFK: thank you so much, i appreciate your help, this place is a dump, i dont know how you stand it [01:23] Hello all, I was updating today when I got this error: [01:23] Osmodivs: what szal said. [01:23] W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net lucid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 4EA3A911D48B8E25 [01:23] There was a simple solution to this before, does anyone know wat do? [01:23] Pyro_Killer: it has it's bad apples, but i wouldn't call it a dump. [01:23] dzzz: Do you ask where is "Shift" key? [01:23] Pyro_Killer: anything we can do to make it better? [01:24] Pyro_Killer: btw, try #httpd for a different experience :) [01:24] It says "grub loading" [01:24] then never shows grub's menu [01:24] dzzz: Ups, problem with scrolling, sorry. [01:24] how do you install other desktop environments? is it like: sudo apt-get install kde? [01:24] Hello [01:24] IAmError, yes [01:24] rationalOgre, -rw-r----- 1 root root 56104 2011-06-15 19:22 soviet_stencil.ttf [01:24] problem with scrolling? [01:24] dzzz: you have to hold the shift key while booting, not just press it [01:24] IAmError, pretty much sometimes it is something like kde-desktop so check synaptic [01:25] does anyone here know much about the RIP Network setups for Large format printers in linux ? My printer seems to use cat5 for connection [01:25] Osmodivs: You need to execute sudo chmod +r /usr/share/fonts/soviet_stencil.ttf [01:25] dzzz: You need LiveCD/USB. My pgdw was too fast, havent read all. [01:25] IAmError: kubuntu-desktop - Kubuntu Plasma Desktop system [01:26] qin: I think there are a couple of steps we can try before resorting to that, but that's not a bad idea [01:26] rationalOgre, Osmodivs: to be precise, sudo chmod o+r /usr/share/fonts/soviet_stencil.ttf [01:27] szal: putting nothing before the + makes it as if a+r were given.... [01:27] szal: I realize o+r is technically correct, but a+r will harm nothing. [01:27] szal, Well, I don't want to mess with that kind of stuff, last time I did something like that, all files (That were not suposed to) changed permissions and the system was all fu*** up [01:27] usr13: how is that compared to the gnome desktop? I heard KDE comes with more "options" available to change it's settings at the ready [01:27] Osmodivs: you [01:27] If you all say that this font is accesible as a normal user, I'll belive in you [01:28] Osmodivs: At this time, that particular font is not, Osmodivs [01:28] Osmodivs: you're already "messing with that kind of stuff" by putting things in /usr/share/fonts/ that don't come there by installing pkgs [01:28] Osmodivs: -R and +r even looks different. [01:28] rationalOgre, Then I am gonna have to change permissions to ALL fonts, don't I? [01:28] Osmodivs: no [01:28] Osmodivs: to THAT font [01:29] Osmodivs: Unless you have copied over others beyond soviet_stencil.ttf [01:29] dzzz: how's it going? if you can't get it to work, you'll be able to hand-edit the grub settings if you've got a live cd lying around... [01:29] Osmodivs: in which case you will need to give them global read permission. (which is what sudo chmod o+r does) [01:30] IAmError: Well, that is a complicated question, but simply put, KDE has options that Gnome does not have, yes that is true. They are different, true. Is KDE more feature rich... well maybe a little. Does KDE offer more customization options?; Yes a few more. [01:30] I am having trouble using Xsane, with the Canon LiDE 110 which is reported to be supported by the Sane development team. How do I get the scanner to work? [01:30] So friggen annoying... [01:30] rationalOgre, For some reasons it does not apear in the Character Map app, I even updated the cache with sudo fc-cache -f [01:30] dzzz:? [01:30] Osmodivs: Did you change the permissions for it? [01:30] i've asked in #vbox but without success so far, i'm having issues trying to get networking in a win7 guest, host == ubuntu 10.10 with the last oracle version, al vbox* modules are loaded [01:31] usr13: well that sounds right up my alley then. Thanks. :) [01:31] just getting a black screen, tried vga=normal, and nofb [01:31] Osmodivs, you may need to restart X [01:31] some help would be awesome [01:31] rationalOgre, Not yet [01:31] Then that is why it is not showing up... [01:31] let me restart and see what happens [01:31] IAmError: KDE is the most resource-heavy of them. Between the 4 main DEs, from lightest to heaviest they are, LXDE, Xfce, Gnome, KDE. I used to use Gnome2.x, now I use Xfce. It's all about what you want. [01:31] IAmError: NP [01:31] * rationalOgre sighs [01:31] Morning! [01:31] guampa: unless you're doing some fancy bridging stuff or whatever, that should work out of the box [01:32] dzzz: have you tried a livecd for comparison? if you've got one lying around that is... [01:32] Is it possible to partition a USB drive and have one partition for file transfers and the other partition for an Ubuntu LIveCD? [01:32] latest benchmarks ive seen on KDE - show its not too heavy these days. :) [01:32] szal: i thought so, but the only way i got to the outside was with NAT, and that is just what i CAN'T use for my needs (have to test VPNs) [01:32] james23, yes but windows hates it [01:32] I can boot to "safe mode" fine, I'll just disable GDM and rip everything graphical out of the startup somehow [01:32] james23, yes its doable. You could evne set up grub2 on it to boot an iso file from a single partition if you wanted [01:32] james23: nothing stopping you just putting random files in a directory on the live image... [01:33] szal: with vbox own bridging the adapter shows as if had no link [01:33] *it [01:33] dzzz: is gdm the problem? do you get the fancy coloured bootscreen (plymouth) [01:33] chrisf: I did that and I think it messed it up [01:33] dzzz: seems a little bit drastic [01:33] szal: thought of using brctl and bridge the vboxnet adpater with my wan but it stil shows up as unlinked [01:33] no, not getting the bootscreen [01:34] i instantly get a blackscreen after grub [01:34] to all: if make an ubuntu usb startup disc, is that the same as a usb live cd? [01:34] my HD light flickers so stuff is going on, just no video [01:34] theres the 'text' option that disables gdm and plymouth.. boots straight to the console [01:34] szal: so no comm trough the point to point link [01:34] james23, yes. its one way to put an live-session on a usb. [01:34] james23: i used the startup disk creator thing, and just put more junk on it and it still worked. [01:34] and if I download programs and install them, will they be there the next time I use the USB? [01:34] james23, if you make a persistant-save file - yes. [01:34] Mm [01:34] dzzz: then it sounds like plymouth is your problem, not gdm [01:35] researching, thankyou [01:35] you can do a 'full normal' install to a usb - if its big enough [01:35] dzzz: you could try replacing splash with nosplash [01:35] rypervenche: What's xfce? You say it's light weight? How so? [01:35] dzzz: in case you didn [01:36] dzzz: and getting rid of quiet, that will mean you have a chance of seeing where things are going wrong [01:36] dr_willis: it's around 14 gigs [01:36] is this normal during the distro upgrade process? http://paste.ubuntu.com/627705/ [01:36] dr_willis: is that a better option than persistant save? [01:36] IAmError: They are all different Desktop Environments. http://www.xubuntu.org/ [01:36] james23, you can do a full install then.. but windows wont be able to read the used partitions. [01:36] james23, eprsistant setups can be quirky when you try to install tio many things, or update/upgrade them [01:37] Mmm [01:37] is this normal during the distro upgrade process? http://paste.ubuntu.com/627705/ see the line with .: 4: Can't open /scripts/functions [01:37] dzzz: in case you didn't already -> try deleting "quiet" from the line in /etc/default/grub that says "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=", optionally put "verbose" in there (should, in theory, show more text output on boot), then run 'sudo update-grub' [01:37] About how much room should I use for a full install? [01:37] but they are more flexiable when moving from differnt machines. [01:37] Normal full ubuntu install wants like 10gb i think [01:37] Lubuntu is smaller. 5gb perhaps [01:38] or so i recall seeing the 'suggested' info being at the start of the installer.. depends on what you want to do with the install also [01:38] Hello, does anyone know if hardware AES acceleration (on intel procs) works with dmcrypt in Ubuntu Natty? [01:38] dr_willis: xubuntu (Natty) ask for 4.4 [01:38] dr_willis: I'm mainly doing this to scan my gfs computer with clamAV, [01:38] anybody can help activate or mount raid5 array ( /dev/md0 ) [01:38] james23, there are Live-cd's out taht include clamav allready [01:39] james23: Then why not use a livecd like TRK? [01:39] james23: Trinity Rescue Kit [01:39] I recall other av makers having live cds also [01:39] dzzz: I personally find Xfce to be very customizable. There are many other DEs that you can use as well. The world is your oyster. [01:39] flexguy, ask your question... [01:39] dr_willis: TRK has like 4 or more AV's on it. Plus a host of other tools. I keep a copy of it around. [01:40] i use xfce === andrew_ is now known as andrew2174 [01:40] rypervenche: was that supposed to go to james23? [01:41] rebooting, hope making those changes to the grub file does the trick :() [01:41] anybody can help activate or mount raid5 array ( /dev/md0 ) anybody knows at least a channe lfor help of this kind? [01:41] FlexGuy, ask your question [01:41] drwillis, rationalOgre there's also backtrack as well, [01:41] ok un momento [01:42] nope... [01:42] weird that i can boot recovery mode fine [01:42] dzzz: did you run update-grub? [01:42] yup [01:42] jcgs: Thats more for penetration testing. TRK is specifically engineered for rescuing windows installs. [01:42] anybody can help activate or mount raid5 array ( /dev/md0 ) [01:42] Is there a way to have emulated surround sound with headphones in ubuntu? [01:42] dr_willis: /dev/sdb1 15G 3.7G 11G 27% / <- Kubuntu Natty, installed ~3 weeks ago [01:42] what i ahve to do isntead ? [01:43] !repeat | FlexGuy [01:43] FlexGuy: the answer is probably yes, but you have tobe a bit more specific, can you describe what problem your having? [01:43] cat /proc/mdstat [01:43] Personalities : [linear] [multipath] [raid0] [raid1] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [raid10] [01:43] md0 : inactive sdc[3](S) sda[1](S) sdb[2](S) [01:43] 2930287488 blocks [01:43] FlexGuy: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:43] so can plymoth be removed somehow? [01:43] I need to activate the raid first [01:43] FlexGuy: also is english your first language? [01:43] no lol [01:43] yes [01:44] french..

[01:45] I'll go look at it. Repeatedly requesting factoids will not help matters :P [01:45] so anybody can help me for the command to activate first the raid array ? [01:45] yup :( won't respoind to pm [01:45] ah, the Pici got there first ;P [01:45] rww: We were just testing. Sorry. [01:46] hoik+} [01:47] FlexGuy: how do you know the raid array needs acitvating? what problem is it causing you? [01:49] his mdstat says it's inactive [01:49] FlexGuy: have you found this? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Raid [01:49] Banshee keeps giving me a "Broken pipe [EPIPE]" error when I try to play music in it. Error log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/627706/ [01:50] is that the dcc exploit again? [01:50] quick question, when you're installing a distro and already have a separate partition for your home folder, the data in your home folder won't get overwritten with that of the new distro will it? [01:50] !ping [01:50] Here I am, brain the size of a planet and they ask me to respond to factoid requests. Call that job satisfaction? Because I don't. [01:51] jcgs: no [01:52] rww: just thought it was abit odd that a million people quit and rejoined... maybe it was just becuase nothing happend :S [01:52] !ping [01:52] Here I am, brain the size of a planet and they ask me to respond to factoid requests. Call that job satisfaction? Because I don't. [01:53] hi ubuntu, karmic is missing from http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=oem, but i dont' see it on http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/ . is there a 3rd place to look? [01:53] !eol | Kamping_Kaiser [01:53] Kamping_Kaiser: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [01:53] george_: Depends entirely on the distro. Typically no, though you generally have to be careful to not format the /home mount when installing. [01:54] is there any way to experiment with ubottu without flooding the channel? [01:54] Rigorm0rtis: /msg ubottu [01:54] Rigorm0rtis: private chat [01:54] rationalOgre, alright, I guess it's best to just make a backup of the home folder, just in case, thanks [01:54] Kamping_Kaiser: it's EOL, so it's not on packages.ubuntu.com, but its packages haven't been moved off the mirror system yet, so it's not on old-releases.ubuntu.com. [01:54] george_: It's wise. [01:55] george_: Either by just backing up the contents or making an image of that partition. [01:55] !fr | FlexGuy <- just in case you don't know that yet [01:55] FlexGuy <- just in case you don't know that yet: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement.

Call that job satisfaction? Because I don't. [01:56] rationalOgre, probably easier to just tar it ;) [01:56] george_: Yeah. And lzma it [01:56] heh force uninstalled plymoth and it works now [01:57] rationalOgre, don't have much data, but I'll try it, I'm actually kind of interested in how much it'll compress it to [01:58] george_: enjoy. :) [01:58] george_: lzma can do some pretty impressive compression === Adamfyre is now known as Adamfyre_ [01:58] rationalOgre, never tried it [01:58] would you suggest I leave Ubuntu on or shut it off each night before i go to bed? [01:59] SailorReality: I have computers that do both. It doesn't make much of a difference. [01:59] SailorReality: Depends upon if you want your computer sipping power all night long or not? [01:59] SailorReality, it's not really about what OS you're using, but I always like turning my machines off when i'm not using them. Gives them less time to suck in dust. [02:00] okthx === cappicard_ is now known as cappicard === P4R4N01D1 is now known as P4R4N01D [02:01] rationalOgre, while I'm here, might anyone know what might be causing me to get device descriptor read/64, error -84 error messages, is it faulty usb ports on my mobo? === tj is now known as teege [02:07] george_: hold a moment. [02:07] szal, Well, I think I should have changed the permissions to that file: http://pastebin.com/7WvhzjVs [02:07] rationalOgre, sure [02:07] george_: what version of ubuntu please? [02:08] rationalOgre, http://pastebin.com/7WvhzjVs [02:08] rationalOgre, Yep, I should have changed the permissions [02:08] rationalOgre, not ubuntu unfortunately, but I was having same problem on a 11.04 livecd I tried [02:09] george_: it's the usb autosuspend featuer [02:10] george_: You need to figure out how to set usb.autosuspend=-1 [02:10] sorry usbcore.autosuspend=-1 [02:10] rationalOgre, hmm let me see [02:12] george_: On ubuntu you can do it with echo -1 | sudo tee /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/autosuspend [02:12] !ping [02:12] Here I am, brain the size of a planet and they ask me to respond to factoid requests. Call that job satisfaction? Because I don't. [02:12] george_: Then reboot [02:12] Osmodivs: Yep. [02:13] if I see this after a fresh install right after login (on ubuntu classic), what does this mean? [02:13] The panel encountered a problem while loading "ClockAppletFactory::ClockApplet". [02:13] rationalOgre, i think I might have tried this when i was looking for a solution, but let me try it out, hope it works brb [02:13] george_: If you are in a livecd environment it wont work. [02:14] I've done two installs, the first install resulted in another gnome applet failing, this time around it's the clock... [02:14] george_: As the change wont persist across boots [02:14] rationalOgre, trying it on my distro, hiping it works [02:14] george_: What distro? [02:14] !list [02:14] This is not a file sharing channel (or network); be sure to read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». [02:14] rationalOgre, not in live right now [02:14] rationalOgre, crunchbang, it's a distro based on debian [02:14] I don't think the media is corrupt, as I've used this usb drive to successfully install to my desktop without any similar errors [02:14] george_: you can cat /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/autosuspend and see if it's there. [02:15] hey ppl [02:15] any ideas as to what might be failing during the install process to cause such an error upon initial and subsequent logins? [02:15] Can I restore position of menu bar to previous version? [02:15] bigeye: when logging in, change ubuntu to ubuntu classic before typing in your password [02:16] rationalOgre, it says -1 so i think the command you gave at least worked, now let me reboot and see if the usb works now :) [02:16] rationalOgre, thanks for the hlp, brb [02:16] shingen: did you verify the md5sum of the .iso you used to create the usb before burning it? [02:16] george_: ok [02:16] rationalOgre: truthfully, no, but I've never had a corrupt download and I've successfully done an install on another machine about three hours prior to the initial install :) === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [02:18] shingen: Force a reinstall of that particular package. [02:19] corey: seems like it's gnome-panel-bobnobo? (for the clock in classic)??? [02:19] shingen: Give it a try either way. apt-get --reinstall install $package [02:20] sudo, obviously. [02:20] shingen: Thanks, but Menu bar is also appeared on unity panel in Ubuntu classic. I want to locate menubar under the title. [02:20] Corey: right, but I'm trying to determine the right package... I'm fine with forcing a package install ;) [02:20] shingen: This is a new install? [02:20] Corey: yes [02:21] shingen: Worth checking just to be sure. [02:21] shingen: I always verify before burning, never know when a sector of the disk will go bad out from under a file. [02:22] rationalOgre, right and normally I'd agree with you, but I just did an install 3 hours prior on another machine, no problems... I'll try doing a reinstall of gnome-panel-bonobo and see if that works [02:23] shingen: Best of luck to you. [02:23] is there an ipod channel? [02:25] Hi, please, I need some help. Should I install ubuntu 32bits or 64 bits? this is my cat /proc/cpuinfo http://pastebin.com/8ZwBBAAr [02:25] connecting to freenode over IPv6 feels good. Even if there's probably more latency because it's tunneled :) [02:25] kunfu, how much ram do you have? if less then 4gb. you could do 32bit on a 64bit cpu and not lose out on much. [02:26] rationalOgre, hmm, nah, didn't do it, i think it might be mobo problem though [02:26] kunfu: if I'm not totally mistaken, that's a 32bit CPU [02:26] szal, I think it's 32-bit as well [02:26] w00t, error went away with a reinstall of gnome-panel-bonobo [02:26] thanks Corey [02:26] george: That's possible. [02:26] I have only 1 gb of ram, I don't know if 64 bits benefits this computer. szal dr_willis [02:26] shingen: Glad you got it sorted. [02:27] shingen: YOu're not likely to break anything by forcibly reinstalling a package. [02:27] kunfu, go 32bit then [02:27] Not unless you've done something ill advised. :-) [02:27] kunfu: Doesn't much matter either way. [02:27] rationalOgre, well thanks for your help :) [02:27] kunfu: it's likely not possible to run 64bit with that processor [02:28] kunfu: That's a 32 bit proc. [02:28] george: No problem. Sorry it didn't work. [02:28] So that makes your decision for you. [02:28] kunfu: and 1700 MHz looks awfully slow for what's designated "3000+"; I had a Sempron 2800+ that ran on 2000 MHz out of the box [02:28] could be its reporting its throttled speed [02:28] ok thank you all. it is possible to run 64 bits, because I have done it :P but it seemed slower than 32. Thats why im confused, also the box of the motherboard says something like 64bits vista :S [02:29] the bios always reported the + speed based upon the cpu-clock [02:29] So maybe I could buy a better cpu? for this motherboard? is that what you mean szal ? [02:29] what's wierd is, sempron 3000+ is supposed to have 512k of cache. that has 256k [02:29] *weird [02:30] how do I make ssh ask me for my key password every connection? [02:30] it's not weird at all if you are overclocking [02:30] for that old a system - can you even get a newer cpu for a reasonable price. [02:30] weren't there two flavors of sempron? [02:30] kunfu: unlikely; if I'm not mistaken that's Socket A, and the fastest you get is the rare and pricey Athlon XP 3200+ [02:30] WOW, GoToMeeting doesn't work on Linunx? WHAT A JOKE [02:31] happyface, never heard of it.. so complain to the developer perhaps? [02:31] happyface: (1) what the what is that? (2) "doesn't work" is NOT a precise error description [02:31] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_AMD_Sempron_microprocessors <--- the 256k version is a 939 socket [02:31] for 3200+ [02:32] ffmpeg: relocation error: /usr/lib/libavfilter.so.1: symbol sws_isSupportedInput, version LIBSWSCALE_0 not defined in file libswscale.so.0 with link time reference [02:32] happyface: A lot of "enterprisey" things don't. [02:32] happyface: Time to find a workaround / run a VM for it. [02:32] ok, if it's Socket 939, that'd make room for an Athlon64 X2 [02:32] So no way that I can get a faster computer unless I throw it out of the window? by buying a cheap used cpu or more ram? szal dr_willis shingen [02:33] how do i create a iso from existing ubuntu installation [02:33] wow, sempron is a nasty mess of crappy name recycling... bad marketing on AMD's part [02:33] kunfu, if you can even find the parts.. [02:33] kunfu, finding more ram is proberly easier then finding a cpu. [02:33] ffmpeg can`t use and it tells: ffmpeg: relocation error: /usr/lib/libavfilter.so.1: symbol sws_isSupportedInput, version LIBSWSCALE_0 not defined in file libswscale.so.0 with link time reference [02:33] kunfu: see above; Socket 939 -> Athlon64 X2 [02:33] kunfu, if you can find something, check out pricewatch.com, they sell all sorts of old CPUs [02:34] kunfu: or there is always ebay.com [02:34] should i again download iso to create bootable usb or can i create a iso from existing installation? [02:34] kunfu: might want to figure out what your motherboard can support before going off to purchase stuff though. [02:34] jhala: download the iso. [02:34] kunfu, I agree with rationalOgre... try to find out the model of your motherboard and read up on what it can support [02:35] rational0gre: why not create from files i have already ? [02:35] so I just need to find a socket 939 compatible cpu? that is all? [02:35] so i've enabled bitlocker on windows 7 which i've been dual booting with ubuntu, but now when i try to boot ubuntu i get "try (hd0,0): NTFS5:" and it stays there [02:35] kunfu, verify first since you're going to need to open your machine anyway to replace... might as well now before you spend $$$ than later and be disappointed [02:35] i just bought the alfa wifi network usb and i already have a brodcom on wlan0. On wlan1 it says realtek. Does the realtek reperesent alfa? and how do i switch them? [02:35] jhala: Because there are a lot of things needed for a "live distro" that you don't have. [02:36] http://img690.imageshack.us/i/ballsx.png/ <-- what is causing the transparency issue..intel xorg driver, i have tried to turn on composite [02:36] kunfu, look for something uniquely identifying the motherboard make and model, so you can find the specs or the manual [02:36] how do i use the alfa to connect to the intenet? [02:36] internet* [02:36] alejandro23: does your system come with a wifi chip built in? [02:37] kunfu: dmidecode gives you more than you want to know about your hardware. [02:37] mongodb says it will listen to "all local ips" by default - does this mean only 127.0.0.1 or might this also mean 192.*.*.* ? [02:37] Hello, is there anyone who could help me out with a few "beginner" things? [02:37] rational0gre: i have a 10.10 netbook iso and then upgraded it to natty. can i get anything out of this iso? [02:37] Buttons840: It'll listen to anything bound to an interface on its box. [02:37] shaun: Not if you don't ask .:_) [02:37] Buttons840, it probably means 0.0.0.0, which is any ip address you have on the machine [02:37] jhala: "Old packages" only really. [02:38] Hm, thank you Corey xD . Firstly, I am not sure how to address specific people, so bare with me please. [02:38] Second, I am new to running a Ubuntu server. [02:38] so why did ubuntu decide to create unity when gnome 3 has a very similar interface? [02:38] Please, Can someone help me? I'm dummy on this server [02:38] jhala: If by "from this iso" you mean, from your present installation, no not really. [02:38] shaun: Their name works. First few letters of their name, press tab, it should autocomplete. [02:38] !ask | tagny [02:38] tagny: 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. :-) [02:38] kunfu, shingen: from the above Wiki article it looks like it's even Socket AM2 -> buy a new AthlonII CPU (X2 start at ~€40) [02:38] george: Difference of "vision". [02:39] szal: I thought we determined he had a socket 939? that's not AM2... [02:39] Corey: Thank you. I need to install two "tar.gz" files. However, none of the tutorials I have watched work. [02:39] szal: because he mentioned 256K onboard cache... [02:39] rationalOgre, hmm, it'll be interesting to see how it plays out [02:39] shingen: that's what _you_ said, I only took your word ;) [02:39] rational0gre, yes [02:39] i got a quad core athlon 2 and semi ok little board for just 120gbp the other day..turn out to be quite a nice little machine [02:39] shingen, socket AM2 support 939 processors [02:39] kunfu / szal: AMD's sempron naming convention is a frigging mess... I'd forget trying to identify by CPU and get info for the mobo itself [02:40] george, ahh, ic... [02:40] rational0gre / Corey: what if i dont want a live usb and just a usb for installing it on another system? [02:40] shaun: cd into the directory they reside within. tar -xvf file.tar.gz [02:40] what are you talking about? [02:40] shingen: Sempron 3000+ 1600 MHz 256 KB 800 MHz 8x 1.25-1.40 V 62 W 23 May 2006 SDA3000IAA3CN <- that's a Manila core (Socket AM2), available in 2 form factors [02:40] is there easy way to split ape file into mp3's in linux [02:41] Corey, I tried cd into the directory and then I used ./config and I got the error "no such file or directory" [02:41] jhala, I have several successfull installations on usb-sticks, those are actual installations with the usb stick as the primary root fs [02:41] Corey, so try -xvf file.tar.gz? [02:41] Ubuntu 11.10 coming soon! [02:41] szal: I thought I heard it was a 3200+ ? [02:41] kunfu: bottom line: the reference for what you should or should not buy is the user's manual of your motherboard [02:41] jhala, just make shure your usb stick is a fast one [02:42] kunfu / szal: agreed, check out your mobo manual :) [02:42] shingen: then I either misread or it was a Freudian slip [02:42] jhala, a really fast one [02:42] rationalOgre, yes brodcom came with my system. it is on wlan0 [02:42] * ElCulebras is back from the dead. Gone 128 hrs 14 min 47 secs [02:43] ElCulebras: please turn public away/back notifications off [02:43] axion: i have a sandisk cruzer. but what method did u use . which command? [02:43] szal: ok [02:43] alejandro23: Then go into your systems BIOS and disable it and your new wifi card should become wlan0 [02:44] jhala, I am talking about a regular installation on a usb stick, so a an installation on a usb stick just like you would on any internal hdd.. [02:44] Corey, when I try the -xvf command you gave me the terminal returns "-xvf: Command not found". [02:45] axion: u mean you installed by downloading iso? [02:45] tar? [02:45] Blue1, If you are addressing me, yes =\ [02:45] tar -zxvf [02:45] Blue1, I am new to Linux Ubuntu Server GUI [02:45] shaun: if someone else is helping I'll just watch [02:45] !info unp [02:45] unp (source: unp): unpack (almost) everything with one command. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0~pre5 (natty), package size 14 kB, installed size 120 kB [02:45] Thank you [02:45] ubuntu server has a gui? [02:46] I think you want something else, you don't want a usb stick that boots a full os, but you want to use the usb stick in stead of a installation cd/dvd ? [02:46] Blue1: if you install one ;) [02:46] szal: true enough [02:46] Blue1: though I doubt you need one on a server [02:46] dr_willis, szal, it extremely popular enterprise web conference software [02:46] Corey, yea I'll have to try ies4linux [02:46] szal: i have never seen a gui on a server -- [02:47] Blue1: then you have never seen a Windows server :P [02:47] !info | unetbootin [02:47] 'unetbootin' is not a valid distribution: hardy, hardy-backports, hardy-proposed, kubuntu-backports, kubuntu-experimental, kubuntu-updates, lucid, lucid-backports, lucid-proposed, maverick, maverick-backports, maverick-proposed, medibuntu, natty, natty-backports, natty-proposed, oneiric, oneiric-backports, oneiric-proposed, partner, stable, testing, unstable [02:47] how can i make ubuntu suspend for 2 hours an then resume?

I feel like fail now. [02:48] I dont know wich cpu I am using right now (cheapest one I could afford at the moment when my computer burnt). I also dont know what cpu model should I look for, as the motherboard seems to support different kinds. I would like to buy one if it will improve much more this computer. Motherboard box says: Socket AM" for AMD Athlon 64 FX / 64X2 / 64 and Sempron processors. My question is How do I know wich kind of processor I am using, and [02:48] ElCulebras, when I try the command you gave me I get this in return: "tar (child): teamspeak3-server_linux-amd64-3.0.0-rc1.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory [02:48] tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now [02:48] tar: Child returned status 2 [02:49] kunfu: this may help: http://pkill-9.com/quick-debugging-tips/ [02:49] sounds like you ght the name wrong.. [02:49] kunfu if it supports all those types, find the fastest one or the cheapest one, depending on your budget... you might want to ask in #hardware as this is really a hardware issue and not an OS specific issue [02:49] Blue1: I have been using GUI's on professional Solaris, HP-UX, and AIX "servers" for years.

[02:51] Osmodivs: No. [02:52] dr_willis, Thank you. I simply copied the file over this time and it worked. However, all it did was produce a file in my home folder that has a bunch of weird characters, and in parenthesis at the end says "(Invalid Encoding)". [02:52] i have a server running smb in my lan with some shares, how can i make it so that another computer sees it under the network folder in nautilus? [02:52] yeah Bluel that says all, thanx AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 3000+ 64 bit. I dont understand why is so slow under 64 bit ubuntu, I may use 32 bit [02:52] shaun, sounds like a currupted download perhaps [02:52] How can i configure my postgreSQL server? [02:52] dr_willis, I downloaded right from the teamspeak site. [02:52] shaun - are you in the same dir as the file when you try and untar the file? [02:53] dwonload accelerator aria2c [02:53] shaun, that dosent prove its a good download... [02:53] Hilikus, depends if you're on the same network and you're broadcasting nbt... if that doesn't make sense to you, just try typing in smb://server/path [02:53] shaun, redownload, check the md5sums (assuming the site givet the sums) [02:54] Hilikus: not nbt...lol, I'm blanking out... if you're broadcasting for netbios over tcp or if you have a wins server [02:54] lapaga, Actually, I think I was in the extracted file when I ran the zxvf command. [02:54] dr_willis, the site doesn't provide md5sums, at least not that I know. [02:55] file a bug report to them. :) [02:56] rationalOgre, Thanks, man [02:56] dr_willis, I am also trying to run a DUC that seems to be in the same state as the TS3 tar.gz file. No config files in the directory or anything... and ./configure doesn't work. [02:57] dr_willis, I was running the server in Windows and someone recommended I switch to Ubuntu server, more light weight and better performance... but I can't figure it out D: [02:58] Ubuntu has a steeper learning curve than Windows [02:58] depends on where you're coming from [02:59] yes, that's true [02:59] Xcytre, Yeah. I used Ubuntu in the past, just a normal Ubuntu desktop. But now I am trying to install tar.gz on this server OS and... I am failing at it =\ [02:59] shaun what are you trying to install? [02:59] where can i see why clients can't connect to my samba share?? [02:59] how do i add a server to xchat gnome [03:00] ? [03:00] it's not suggested to use tarballs to install stuff... stick with repositories or .deb packages if necessary [03:00] green91, TeamSpeak 3 server, and No-IP DUC [03:00] shingen [03:00] PurpleHaze: what server? [03:00] PurpleHaze, /server irc.efnet.com ??? [03:00] no its a private server szal [03:00] shaun: i dont suppose they would have a .deb package or be available through apt? [03:01] lol, guess not [03:01] :) [03:01] xchat > new server tab [03:01] green91, Nope, if they had a .deb I would be happy as hell... but they don't. [03:01] green91, That's what I was originally looking for. [03:01] well i'll admit im not familiar with that product [03:02] green91, It's a VoIP server like Ventrilo, Mumble, etc. [03:02] ic [03:02] shaun, ciould be you are doing somthing fundametally/triivially wrong.. basically you download the tar.gz and use 'tar xzvf thefilename' and the it should extract to some dir, you then cd into and run whatever app you are using. [03:03] shaun, its worth spending an hr or 2 learnig shell basics. === totem is now known as totharaam [03:03] !teamspeak [03:03] teamspeak is the proprietry VoIP software see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TeamSpeak For a open source alternative consider using Mumble http://mumble.sourceforge.net/ [03:03] nvm got it [03:03] laterz [03:03] dr_willis, I already have the file extracted to a directory and I was able to cd into it [03:04] But after cd into it I tried ./configure and I got an error. [03:04] shaun, if its SOURCE you confiogure/compuile it... [03:04] What error. [03:04] ? [03:04] shaun, if its precompiled you just run it.. [03:04] dr_willis, How to I run it? [03:04] ./whaeverthecommandis [03:05] paste "ls -l" [03:05] look in the dir for an executable file. [03:05] shaun: the one I just downloaded has no configure file, so that's the first error [03:05] dr_willis, I don't know what that command is xD I am sorry, I am completely lost. === maco2 is now known as maco [03:05] shaun, so LOOK in the directory. [03:05] shaun: the second thing is, you'll need to run make and have the necessary packages to compile... gcc it seems [03:05] shaun: from the included server_quickstart.txt it looks pretty straightforward [03:05] shaun: then you'll need to create a file where it's trying to load the config from [03:05] pastbin "ls -l" [03:05] Teamspeak does not come in source form - as far as i know.. so thats going the wrong route.. the teamspeak docs proberly tell you exactly what the command is. [03:06] shaun: no friggin' idea what you want to ./configure there [03:06] bye all. work time for me. [03:06] shaun: and then you'll need to put it into your init ring (4?) so that it starts as a daemon on boot [03:06] By Dr Willis [03:06] run it from rc.local would be easier then making a init script. [03:06] byeee [03:06] shaun: next time, read README.FIRST :) [03:07] szal, I was just following tutorials. They said ./configure... I am completely new to running anything then .deb [03:07] is there somewhere that explains how to disable auto dhcp for a specific interface in 11.04? [03:07] shingen, I read the Readme... the only one that was there was in tsdns... and that did not help at all. [03:07] shaun, that's not what README.FIRST says from noip-duc-linux.tar.gz :P [03:07] edit the interface file [03:07] anyone use win 7 on laptop? [03:07] shaun: what tutorial? [03:08] hendaus: This is a Ubuntu support channel. :-) [03:08] hendaus not unless he has a gun on me [03:08] shingen, Wait, I am sorry but everyone seems to be addressing it in different ways lol. Are you talking about the TeamSpeak3 or the No-IP file? I have barely worked with the No-IP file yet. [03:08] Corey, i know but my girlfriend use win 7 os and me ubuntu [03:08] hendaus: So what's your actual question? [03:09] shaun, I don't know what you're reading, but there is a README.FIRST file after you've uncompressed noip-duc-linux.tar.gz [03:09] when i apply an emblem to a folder, where is that information stored? [03:09] anybody can help with adding a disk to a raid5 array with mdadm? [03:09] szal, A youtube tutorial on installing tar.gz files. Hey, I was desperate. [03:09] shaun: you won't do both at the same time, so please decide what you waht to do first [03:09] shaun, tar xzvf noip-duc-linux.tar.gz will uncompress as someone mentioned earlier [03:09] shaun: tar.gz are just archive files (tapearchive+gzipped) [03:09] shingen: z is understood in modern versions of tar. [03:09] shaun: Not all tar.gz files are the same. [03:09] shingen: Keeps you from having to guess z or j. [03:09] shingen, I wasn't talking about noip... I simply mentioned it. What I am stuck on is the TeamSpeak2 file. [03:10] Corey, her laptop doesnot connect internet cable , maybe it needs the ethernet driver [03:10] Corey: brain on autopilot :) [03:10] shaun: did you try ./ts3server_startscript.sh ? [03:10] Corey: z is gz, j is bz2 [03:10] hendaus: So it's a Windows support question? [03:10] szal: Quite, but now it's less to type and works more effectdively when invoked via script. [03:10] milamber, I just tried to run it, terminal crashed. [03:10] Corey, is there a windows help channel? [03:10] shaun, you'll need to find the folks who created that tarball and ask them what / why... [03:11] hendaus: ##windows [03:11] Friends don't let friends run windows. === puma is now known as Shinken [03:12] jasl, That will be what I will have to resort to, again D: . I'm hosting the server for a group. It was only supposed to be down for a few hours >< lol === Shinken is now known as Swanken [03:13] oh well [03:14] shaun: i just got it to run on my 10.04 lts server [03:14] can anybody tell me where i can download open source driver for my ATI HD 6600M card [03:14] Bring up a test server and make it work first. [03:14] milamber, ... could you please please tell me how. lol. [03:14] I just ran that script... or tried to. [03:14] shaun: 1 sec [03:15] milamber, thank you. [03:15] shaun: for TS3 -> unpack & run the script according to the instructions in doc/server_quickstart.txt [03:15] pretty much a no-brainer [03:16] anyone knows a good way to find the right order for devices with a RAID with mdadm [03:16] shaun: Are you certain that running a server is what you want to do? [03:16] It's not for the faint of heart. [03:16] szal, I am not able to run the server binary though. [03:16] Skeeter-: cat /proc/md* [03:17] shaun: why not? [03:17] Corey: [03:17] Corey, Depends. It's just a simple VoIP server. I was told running it on linux would help the performance. [03:17] Corey: the raid is assemble but not in the right order, so the data is messed up [03:17] shaun: http://pastebin.com/sTyYEtEd [03:17] szal, Linux doesn't recognize the binary, and I don't know how to make it. [03:18] Skeeter-: Hope you've got solid backups. :-) [03:18] anyone know how I would go about running a program that would show on the remote computer's display after i ssh in? [03:18] shaun: exact input and output to pastebin please [03:18] so instead of the program showing in the terminal it shows on their display [03:18] Corey: i dont [03:18] Skeeter-: Good luck. [03:18] damnit [03:19] shaun: what's wrong with the binary? and what're you trying to run [03:19] szal, as I said, Linux doesn't recognize the file and I don't know how to make it. I am completely new to this... [03:19] do I ask here or is there a specialist Ubuntu-One channel ? [03:19] george: ssh -Y othersystem [03:20] damn superblock [03:20] shaun: as I said, exact input and output to pastebin please, and I emphasize, _exact_ [03:20] and ubuntu upgrade [03:20] * Belxjander has an issue with a non-received recovery code in trying to recover an account created within the last 48 hours [03:20] geroge: be sure xauth is loaded on the other system. [03:20] which is more secure webmail or email client? [03:20] celthunder, Probably nothing. But linux doesn't recognize the file off first hand, and I don't know how to run the binary in Linux. I am completely new to Linux, and thus only know how to run standard files like .deb [03:20] lkvlasdf: depends [03:20] jasl, just tried that, it makes the program show up on my computer instead of the remote one [03:20] webmain via https maybe [03:20] lkvlasdf: both can be secure or insecure [03:21] shaun: ? ./ does what? [03:21] szal, "as I said, exact input and output to pastebin please, and I emphasize, _exact" What input and output are you talking about? What I am saying is, if there is a way to get Linux to recognize the file, then I don't know how. [03:21] shaun: until you provide us with exact error messages (and what lead to them), we are fishing in muddy waters [03:21] geroge: explain [03:21] a bit off topic, but this is a last resort: does anyone know where i can get a copy of DVL (Damn Vulnerable Linux) v1.5? [03:21] ./binary? I thought I did that, and it gave me an error. [03:22] Belxjander: Ask here, if someone knows, they can offer help. [03:22] celthunder, Let me try again. [03:22] shaun: ok what was the error [03:22] shaun: you had to run the script somehow.. how did you? -> pastebin -- what did it spew out? -> pastebin [03:22] jasl, let's say I'm on my computer and I want a program to open on the display of a remote computer (not mine) [03:22] shaun: is that so hard to grasp? [03:22] szal: what's he tried already? [03:22] george: OK different problem. [03:22] celthunder: no friggin' idea, trying to get that out of him [03:22] jasl, yeah :P [03:22] gnewb: okay...thanks [03:23] george: what program? a few let you set which x display to use [03:23] szal, I didn't run the binary at all. I didn't know how. That's what I am telling you. I will do what celt said and then see if I can answer you... [03:23] shaun: szal chmod +x it usually helps if it's not already [03:23] shaun: then read the friggin' .txt file I pointed you to several times already [03:23] Who can explain to me why registering "Belxjander@gmail.com" which is my perfectly functional Email Account for Ubuntu One, and now attempting to recover the password for reconnecting my UbuntuOne Account(newly created) to the same Email address fails to provide any kind of recovery code stalling any recovery at all ?

[03:25] shaun: it says EXACTLY how to run the binary [03:25] illdecree: googlefu http://www.kat.ph/damn-vulnerable-linux-1-5-infectious-disease-t4363390.html ? [03:25] gnewb: Launchpad.net = no, OpenID's... which one works as I have 5 cross-verified OpenID accounts [03:25] shaun: it's not rocket sience depending what server you're tryuing to run usually it takes under 5 minutes to get a working server and 10-15 to get how you want it [03:26] illdecree: meh, maybe not [03:26] Belxjander: Or what rational0gre posted, thank you. [03:26] Belxjander: i guess this would help most -> https://one.ubuntu.com/support/contact/ [03:26] wonderworld: I'll have to leave that open as I need to head away again... [03:27] Head away... [03:27] shaun: can you post something similar to what i posted for you? it's the only way anyone would be remotely able to provide help [03:27] milamber: i actually JUST found it. been searching all day. i found it on demonoid, but it looks poorly seeded... [03:28] milamber, I am starting over from scratch and if I get something I will... [03:28] thank you for the help anyway everyone... [03:28] milamber, Jesus, i've only used desktop linux for edu. a dumb-ass of my caliber should have stuck to windows... =\ [03:28] I'll be back to finish this up later [03:29] shaun: Dont get discouraged [03:29] jasl: i think he isn't even trying [03:29] celthunder: how would you know that? [03:29] anyone know where the conf file for unity launcher is located? the launcher icons wont stay after logout/in. [03:30] shaun: i find that administering my ubuntu boxes is easier than windows (after the learning curve). the main point is that there is a learning curve. we can only help if you do what is asked. [03:30] shaun: I think he's a little frustrated [03:30] shaun: i would say use my pastebin as a guide. and what version of ubuntu are you using? [03:30] celthunder, Think what you want. I'm looking over what you have all said as well as looking at the txt files. I've been infront of this for at least an hour and a half. [03:31] wonderworld: cause i joined half way through and uhm...judging from szal's statements and his own he can't be trying too hard [03:31] milamber, 11.04 Server [03:31] it's hard to use the console when you do it for the first time [03:31] milamber, thanks for that and I will see if I can get something. [03:32] you just don't know if he is trying. you are just rude. [03:32] app like jdownloader for ubuntu that opens .dlc's? [03:32] is there one? [03:32] hendaus: jdownloader runs on linux as it's java multiplatform [03:32] wonderworld; unliess you grew up on DOS and CP/M! [03:33] jasl, gotta love the pip comand [03:33] lol [03:33] wonderworld, Meh, it's okay. To be honest, I got caught up in arguing with him. I should be thanking him for trying to help me. But yes, I haven't used the terminal before and really don't have a damn clue of what I am doing. [03:33] gh0st: JDownloader runs on Linux [03:33] ya I know but poorly it seems.. [03:33] gh0st: never had a problem with it [03:33] speaking of that I have a number of byte mags from the 70.s 80's and 90's to dispose of. Any takers? [03:34] jasl: -> #ubuntu-offtopic [03:34] ROger. [03:34] i have a utility Im' trying to install, but when I run it I get an error. Here's the command and error: [03:34] an@Ubuntu-1:/usr/local/drush$ ./drush [03:34] /usr/bin/env: php: No such file or directory [03:35] Nautilus: sudo apt-get install php5-cli [03:35] ^ Don't know what to do about that. I tried to make the directory but it says mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/bin/env': File exists [03:35] Nautilus: do you have php installed? [03:35] Probably not [03:35] PHP 5.2.4 IIRC [03:35] is php in your path? [03:35] unsure. [03:35] type php in a terminal window [03:36] aha! The program 'php' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install php5-cli [03:36] yes [03:36] thank wonderworld [03:36] so that's what ... a CLI access to the installed PHP? [03:36] Yes [03:36] Nautilus: another good way of checking is: dpkg -l | grep php [03:37] to install java, sudo apt-get install jre? [03:37] Php is normally a server side program. [03:37] Nautilus: no, it's another php installation for shell scripts. your already installed php is probably the apache-module [03:37] cli version is a command line rogram. [03:37] program [03:37] what are the chances of the php5-cli install breaking something? [03:37] zero [03:38] milamber, http://pastebin.com/aaXASEhd [03:38] just a front-end, right? [03:38] milamber, I am still not used to not being able to use Ctrl*C lol [03:38] No, just another program. [03:38] gh0st: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre [03:38] hry [03:38] hey* [03:38] wtf? [03:39] jasl: hmm? [03:39] Mode: **** [03:39] How does one go about connecting to another IRC host? [03:39] Or was that only here? [03:39] xXcalciferXx: depends on the irc client but generally /server [03:39] jasl: just the floodbots opping up, no big deal [03:39] OK that works, now a new problem, Drush needs a copy of the PEAR Console_Table library in order to function, and the attempt to download this file automatically failed because you do not have permission to write files in /usr/local/drush/includes. [03:39] I'm using xchat [03:40] Thanks [03:40] shaun: what is the output of uname -a [03:40] xXcalciferXx: /newserver if you want to keep the current one open or /server if you want to kill the current one [03:40] Ok, thanks. [03:40] milamber, sorry? What do you mean? [03:40] Nautilius: run using sudo. [03:40] Nautilus: is this a shared server? [03:40] in the terminal type: uname -a [03:41] wonderworld: oh! That works. grumble about permissions [03:41] milamber, shaun@reignmarisvr:~/teamspeak3-server_linux-amd64$ uname -a [03:41] Linux reignmarisvr 2.6.38-8-generic-pae #42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 05:17:09 UTC 2011 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux [03:41] wonderworld: local [03:41] anyone know where I can find the conf file for unity launcher? [03:42] shaun: it looks like you are trying to run a 64 bit package on a 32 bit os, have you tried the 32 bit version? [03:42] shaun: the 32 bit version of the teamspeak package? [03:42] Hm, hold on. Actually, I downloaded that on a 64bit PC and transferred it, so that would be why lol [03:43] That was stupid. One moment. [03:43] *head->desk* [03:43] After you run "make install", where do you see the software? [03:43] Firstmate: who? [03:43] Me [03:43] Firstmate: depends on the package [03:43] I was trying to compile & install xchat [03:43] xchat.org/compiling [03:43] make ; make install [03:43] Firstmate: any reason to do that? [03:43] Then what? [03:43] Firstmate: depends what was your prefix when doing ./configure? [03:43] xchat [03:44] Oh XD [03:44] Firstmate: updatedb; locate xchat [03:44] How do you know what command to use? [03:44] or "which xchat" [03:44] thanks guys, I'm all set! [03:44] Isn't xchat a supported package? [03:44] Firstmate: jasl yes [03:44] Firstmate: Why are you compiling xchat from source? [03:45] heh [03:45] !package | jasl [03:45] jasl: You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !KPackageKit, !Adept, "apt-cache search ", or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! [03:45] Just to learn how. [03:45] Firstmate: you can also check the Makefile in the "install" section to see where the binaries are copied to [03:45] I see. [03:46] Firstmate: i hate programs spreading over the whole system. most of the time you can pass a directory-prefix to the configure script [03:46] so you could install all your selfcompiled programs to /home/firstmate/compiled for example [03:47] Usually ./configure;make;make install; puts binaries in either /usr/bin/ or /usr/bin/local [03:47] hello, anybody knows what this command for, http://uploadpic.org/v.php?img=tHB4x1GYJN [03:47] Yeah I see that. [03:47] wonderworld: The MakeFile is also really large D: [03:47] default install prefix, if nothing else given, is /usr/local [03:48] But I mean, how do I know whether to type "xchat" or "foo" [03:48] y'know? [03:48] i guess you would find it in the xchat documentation [03:48] or you have to check the makefile [03:48] Gotcha [03:48] maybe there is a better way === john1400 is now known as john1400_afk [03:48] unsure [03:49] Sorry I meant /usr/local/bin not /usr/bin/local. [03:49] One second, brb [03:49] Had to get on the xchat one XD [03:49] hello, anybody knows what this command for, http://uploadpic.org/v.php?img=tHB4x1GYJN [03:50] milamber, http://pastebin.com/EEDxXfNC [03:50] !repeat | UbuntuQ [03:50] UbuntuQ: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [03:50] Another question [03:50] This xchat instance is like hooked onto the terminal process [03:50] UbuntuQ: you mean the udev one? [03:51] How do I run xchat while still being able to close the terminal [03:51] Firstmate: xchat & [03:51] Thanks. [03:51] The & does what, just for learning purposes? [03:51] UbuntuQ, udev controls the initialization of devices based on rules files. one of your rules files is missing or the wrong permissions so you get the warning [03:51] Firstmate: sends it to the background [03:51] Hi [03:51] Ubuntu doesn't even have an equalizer [03:51] Thanks again. [03:52] Now to restart xchat then [03:52] shaun: try running as super user [03:52] !info libsqlite3-0 [03:52] libsqlite3-0 (source: sqlite3): SQLite 3 shared library. In component main, is important. Version 3.7.4-2ubuntu5 (natty), package size 301 kB, installed size 692 kB [03:52] centHOGG: try to find one in a default Windows installation; I doubt you'll be lucky w/ that [03:52] szal, ubottu, celthunder, escott: yeah. [03:53] centHOGG: There is pulseaudio equalizer [03:53] shaun: in the terminal type: sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-0 [03:53] szal, ubottu, celthunder, escott: yeah the udev [03:53] szal, ubottu, celthunder, escott: yeah the how can i fix it, or remove it [03:53] qin: alsa? [03:53] szal, Is that the command "sudo su"? [03:54] milamber, Alright, thanks. [03:54] milamber: missed that [03:54] UbuntuQ: does the file exist? [03:54] shaun: huh? [03:54] UbuntuQ, check that file make sure it has the correct permissions, and is formatted correctly. if nothing exists just create an empty file with that name [03:54] Firstmate: you want to start xchat and close the terminal afterwards? [03:54] szal, To run as super user, is that "sudo su"? [03:54] centHOGG: What a difference? [03:54] shaun: on *buntu it's "sudo" followed by the command you want to run [03:54] shaun: you don't have to run it as super user [03:54] shaun: see milamber's [03:55] a super user* [03:55] message [03:55] how can I make the desktop display desktop icons instead of ~/? [03:55] the xchat & did not work. [03:55] shaun: you need to install a package [03:55] I closed the terminal and it closed xchat as well. [03:55] milamber, libsqlite3-0 is already the newest version. [03:55] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 34 not upgraded. [03:56] Firstmate: xchat &; disown %1 [03:56] Could I ask what disown does? [03:56] jasl, assuming you are speaking of the one milamber was, then I believe it failed... lol [03:56] Firstmate: It will "detach" process from terminal, "demonize" [03:56] * PCdoc is using xchat since last 6 months without any problems [03:56] Firstmate, the parent process (usually the shell that started it) disowns the process so that killing the shell won't kill the child process [03:57] shaun: right [03:57] fbass: make sure XDG_DESKTOP_DIR points to $HOME/Desktop in ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs (and that the directory exists) and run xdg-user-dirs-update; [03:57] * szal dropped Xchat soon after 2.4 (2005) [03:57] Yay, it worked. [03:57] Thanks. [03:57] Szal what are you using now? [03:57] fbass: if the file doesn't exist, that is okay, xdg-user-dirs-update will create it [03:58] windows xp has a 2-band equalizer on install [03:58] Adamfyre: currenty Konversation, not my ultimate fav, but easier to set up than Weechat ;) [03:58] celthunder, escott: yeah it exist, let me see what's in it escott [03:58] Oh ok. Kde? [03:58] yep [03:59] shaun: what was the output of: sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-0 ? [03:59] milamber, libsqlite3-0 is already the newest version. [03:59] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 34 not upgraded. [03:59] hi all [03:59] fbass: you will also need to restart nautilus: nautilus -q; [03:59] celthunder, escott: it's actually empty [04:00] celthunder, escott: should i just delete it?! [04:00] shaun: dpkg -L libsqlite3-0 [04:00] trism: I did that but the desktop is still showing ~/ [04:00] phong_, hello [04:00] UbuntuQ, check the permissions on it. ls -l in that folder see if that file has different permissions [04:00] See what files are provided by that package [04:00]

hi [04:00] fbass: pastebin ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs [04:01] shaun: i don't think you are running the right command. pastebin the output of ls in the untarred directory please. [04:01] jasl, /. [04:01] /usr/lib [04:01] /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu [04:01] /usr/share/doc/libsqlite3-0 [04:01] /usr/share/doc/libsqlite3-0/README.Debian [04:01] /usr/share/doc/libsqlite3-0/README [04:01] /usr/share/doc/libsqlite3-0/copyright [04:01] shaun: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:02] celthunder, escott: I'll be back in a bit [04:02] pastebin. [04:02] i have flashplugin-installer installed already but firefox doesnt seem to recognize it. any ideas how to fix it? [04:02] trism: yeah actually I just edited user-dirs.dirs and it worked. [04:02] thanks [04:03] centHOGG: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?t=88719 [04:03] milamber, http://pastebin.com/LaxeGh8p [04:03] jasl, Sorry haha, I was throwing hers in paste bin and so I threw yours in real fast lol. [04:03] How do I run multiple commands on one line in terminal? [04:03] onecommand:twocommand;threecommand; [04:03] shaun: i need the output of ls in the untarred directory [04:04] Separate with semicolons. [04:04]

Firstmate: separate them with semicolons. [04:04] milamber, output of ls? I am not sure what that means. Everything I did in terminal is there, unless you need me to do something else in terminal. [04:04] Firstmate: if you want them to run one after the other (ie if the first completes, then do the second, and so on . . . ) the usage between commands is: && [04:05] shaun: ls is a command that will list the files in the directory [04:05] Firstmate: Or you can pipe | [04:05] shaun: i would like to see that list [04:05] Okay [04:05] Yeah I was trying to do what someone said earlier [04:05] qin: piping is another thing [04:05] xchat &; disown %1 [04:06] But it gave this error, How do I run multiple commands on one line in terminal? [04:06] woops [04:06] wrong paste [04:06] Firstmate: a single ampersand launches a program from the terminal into the background [04:06]

Firstmate: one semicolon detaches the process and puts it in the background. [04:06] Firstmate: Not sure that &; is correct, my bad [04:06] "bash: syntax error near unexpected token: ';'" [04:06]

Firstmate: separate them with semicolons. [04:06] Firstmate, why not just disown xchat [04:06] milamber, http://pastebin.com/5qv4i8r2 [04:07] I keep getting that bash error whenever I use ; [04:07] Firstmate, sorry that doesn't work [04:07]

why do you want to disown it anyway? [04:07] Cause I want to close the terminal. [04:07]

then just run: nohup xchat & [04:07] shaun: do: ./ts3server_startscript.sh start [04:08] shaun: is libts2db in /usr/local/lib? [04:08] Firstmate, i don't think it will close anyways [04:08] Firstmate, most gui apps are smart enough to detach from the terminal. have you tried it [04:09] Yeah I did [04:09] It closed xchat alongside it. [04:09]

just run: nohup xchat & [04:09] Alright [04:10] Failed to fetch http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/restricted/i18n/Translation-en_NZ.bz2 Bad header line?? help?

I'd like to run a WINE program remotely. Someone mentioned looking at the launcher properties to get the information. However, I can not get the properties on the side-dock-bar thing. How would I get the launcher properties for a program in the launcher? [04:50] how do i restart xorg? ctr--alt-backspace is what google says, and that doesn't work [04:50] omar on the command line, "sudo restart gdm" should do the trick [04:50] thanks ;) [04:56] does anyone know how to get to the properties of a program on the dock bar? === Luxe is now known as `Allegro === `Allegro is now known as Luxe [04:57] fishscene Did you try right click on it? [04:57] Yes. I get "Mozilla Firefox" and "Keep in Launcher" [04:58] (Firefox is the program I'm running in WINE) [04:58] fishscene, its the same menu entries as gnome2 so search for them in alacarte [04:58] aha! Thanks! [04:59] <[THC]AcidRain> why run firefox in wine? [05:00] <[THC]AcidRain> is there a linux ventrilo equivalent? [05:00] [THC]AcidRain: does seem a little silly... (actualy, not just a little, i was just being polite) [05:00] <[THC]AcidRain> same protocols and what not [05:00] <[THC]AcidRain> yeah weird :/ [05:00] i used ff in wine earlier to test a few networking related things [05:01] [THC]AcidRain, its called mangler [05:01] i could *kinda* see a use [05:01] <[THC]AcidRain> yarddog: i figured you would suggest mangler [05:01] <[THC]AcidRain> only problem is i cant get it to work in ubuntu 9.04 [05:01] oh ok [05:01] pretty sure there is a linux client for teamspeak [05:01] <[THC]AcidRain> something about dependencies when building from source [05:01] dont know [05:02] just knew about mangler [05:02] <[THC]AcidRain> yeah there is a linux teamspeak client native i believe. but vent just seems to be more popular [05:02] !info mangler [05:02] Package mangler does not exist in natty [05:02] hmmm [05:02] for a while the codecs for vent were much better [05:02] but teamspeak has caught up IMO [05:02] <[THC]AcidRain> ah, well i have jaunty [05:02] mangler should be coming to 11.10 [05:03] <[THC]AcidRain> perhaps ill just talk all my friends into using teamspeak [05:03] <[THC]AcidRain> save me the trouble :) [05:03] i had a friend that had vent working in wine [05:03] but this was a few years ago [05:03] mumble ftw [05:03] <[THC]AcidRain> hmmm.. i cant remember, but i think i tried vent in wine [05:03] <[THC]AcidRain> but im the type to avoid Win programs at all costs [05:04] <[THC]AcidRain> like i dont even use my iphone/ipod because its Win dependent. just bought a DroidX and rooted [05:04] meh, i'm a "if it does the job use it" kinda guy [05:05] I always used mangler for ventrillo also, havent tried on 11.10 though [05:05] <[THC]AcidRain> has anyone got mangler to work in jaunty? [05:05] [THC]AcidRain: my iphone works perfectly under ubuntu [05:05] mumble is pretty much what cool people use. it's qt4 so cross-platform. :) [05:05] lmao @ an iphone that works perfectly. [05:05] <[THC]AcidRain> PresuntoRJ: what app do you use? [05:06] <[THC]AcidRain> phlunk3: yea right lol. i just dont like iphone anyways [05:06] mangler has .deb files for 11.04 on their site [05:06] mangler.org/download [05:06] <[THC]AcidRain> sry man, but when android unleashed the Droid, its tooooo bad ass [05:06] [THC]AcidRain: banshee and nautilus [05:06] don't be so conventional ..

[05:08] [THC]AcidRain: Using wicd? [05:08] or have you seen that with several different routers? [05:09] <[THC]AcidRain> vandemar: possible, but ive tried on many different routers [05:09] <[THC]AcidRain> my solution was to just buy a wireless bridge/switch [05:09] if i may ask --> what os ? [05:09] what kind of wireless card do you have? I have never had an issue [05:09] [THC]AcidRain: i had a few wifi issues, solved by installing propertary drivers, with an HP laptop back on 8.04 ... newer versions are really better [05:09] [THC]AcidRain: I've never had that type of problem with wireless. [05:09] <[THC]AcidRain> well my laptop is at a friends house [05:10] <[THC]AcidRain> but i do plan to bring it back and do some natty work with it :) [05:10] <[THC]AcidRain> perhaps have it to run a mailserver for me here [05:10] natty is only worth it if you run Ubunbu Classic [05:10] I can't stand Gnome3 [05:11] you're giving me the creeps, man ..

[05:25] taui challenge you to write a standard lisp compliant compiler in 25 days or less [05:25] whoops [05:25] omg my buddy just made me type in terminal telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl I hereby deem this the first cool thing I have learned since installing ubuntu [05:25] that's easy enough... in lisp [05:25] Guest52979, make sure you have guest addons installed [05:25] no like my graphic card drivers. the virtual box operating system is windows 7 im trying to use it to play some game and i dont think its going to work because my under device manager it states vga driver [05:25] how do install that? [05:25] shanebnetapp, how do i install that? [05:26] you can use guest addons but the 3d acceleration is still going to be sub par [05:26] should be under the machine menu if i remember right [05:26] th^^: This works. Thank you very much for your help. [05:26] Guest52979: you won't have much luck in running games in virtualbox [05:26] shanebnetapp, its fine i just need the game to regocnize my card so it will run [05:26] Guest52979: and you can't do that [05:26] Guest52979: virtual machines do not have access to the hardware [05:27] the^^ ahh okay [05:27] you can get *some* 3d accel support [05:27] there is proof-of-concept (pretty bad) 3d support in virtualbox anyway [05:27] how do i put guest addons on? [05:27] but like i said, it's terrible [05:27] but you can't realistically play anything with it === rajesh is now known as Guest17738 [05:27] *anything* :) [05:27] what game is it? [05:27] Guest52979: that's not going to work until sometime in the future when pcie video card virtualization is mainstream and has driver support [05:27] you might be able to get it working in wine [05:27] free style street basketball [05:27] tons of documentation on getting popular games working in wine [05:27] wine might be better guess [05:27] Hello, I cannot make use of  Magic SysRq Key on my hp 625 notebook of german model.

[05:27] ehh i tried wine and it wouldnt install [05:28] Guest52979: you may be able to install a second video card and pass through the entire pci device to the guest os, maybe [05:28] Well meh. [05:28] vandemar, im new to ubuntu haha that sounds complicated [05:28] not sure if virtualbox does that, some other hypervisors do though [05:28] Finally got Conky working.

[05:29] smoother? what's that supposed to mean? [05:30] i love these questions [05:30] adamfyre: I know, right? [05:30] http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html [05:30] vandemar, for instance like i put wobbly windows but it doesnt run as smooth as i would like it to [05:30] I just pressed ctrl+l and everything vanished.......???? [05:30] rypervenche yipp [05:30] same thing when i like minimize windows and such [05:30] Guest52979: gfx card? [05:30] Guest52979, have you installed up to date video drivers for your card? [05:31] guest wobbly is super smooth on my computer [05:31] Guest52979: advanced graphics stuff on linux is hit and miss, depends heavily on graphics card and whether you're using open source (nouveau, radeon) or closed (nvidia, fglrx) [05:31] th^^ his radeon hd 5770 pro [05:31] if you're using proprietary ati driver [05:31] you're sh*t out of luck :) [05:31] shanebnetapp, yes i installed propietrary drivers or however u spell it [05:31] runs fine with my hd5870 [05:31] like smoother .. ubuntu runs pretty good and updates every week or so .. [05:31] compiz lags with it, runs much better with open driver, but this can't run any games [05:32] vandemar, do u think ati has separate drivers for linux? [05:32] there is open source (radeon) and closed source (fglrx). neither one is perfect. [05:32] well i mean it runs fine just sometimes lags a bit or like it takes a little long to open a program [05:32] closed one is just less bad [05:32] but they're both bad [05:32] :P === graham is now known as Guest86570 [05:33] i have no video or graphics problems at all, except, ocasionally, my screen just blinks, go completely black for half a sec then comes back fine [05:33] although no matter what instal it never gets slower i like that [05:33] :p [05:33] Guest52979: It could also just be your computer. Compiz does use more resources than not using it :P [05:33] ^O^ [05:33] Bleh. [05:33] lol [05:33] shanebnetapp, hey did u have to download separate drivers for ur 5870? [05:33] you cant beat good hardware .. [05:33] my current annoyance with fglrx is it has to be installed AND an xserver has to be using it before the card can do opencl. [05:33] 可以说中文么? [05:34] 可以 [05:34] Guest52979: no i just turn on the proprietary ones [05:34] But not here. [05:34] rypervenche, i have 4 gigs of ram though. should i get more maybe? [05:34] shanebnetapp, yeah thats what i did =[[ [05:34] how much is allocated to the host vs guest? [05:34] where? [05:34] you can turn on a few toolkits with compizconfig-settings-manager [05:34] that may help [05:34] for that matter what OS is the host and guest, I never caught that part [05:34] make sure opengl is on etc [05:34] Guest52979: 11.04 has the latest ati driver release already, and no you can't do anything for it :) [05:34] how do i make a new room [05:34] vicious_: either in #ubuntu-cn or in a private message. [05:34] Guest52979: if you don't need games, open driver runs unity/compiz etc pretty smoothly [05:35] Guest52979: but you can forget about the games with it [05:35] thks [05:35] i can't speak much to gaming, i reboot to windows for most of that [05:35] th^^ whats open driver? [05:35] i only play minecraft which is a memory hog but doesn't do much to stress a graphics card [05:36] Guest52979: the one you get when you don't enable proprietary driver from 'additional drivers' dialog :) [05:37] help === Guest86570 is now known as test === adhown is now known as duh-aduh-aduh [05:37] th^^ so wait if uninstall propiertary dirvers it wil run beter? === test is now known as Los7puppy [05:38] Can anyone tell me how to find out, which graphic driver is used by my OS?

[05:39] Guest52979: it should, compiz at least [05:40] th^^ what about like running videos and stuff on the web and 3d aprehensive things [05:40] dslip: yeah, qemu docs/manpages pretty well cover the basics [05:40] dslip: https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/serverguide/C/virtualization.html [05:40] Guest52979: games will be bad, at least [05:40] i run proprietary one, i like my gaming [05:40] :P [05:41] looking for a little 'less technical' and more handholding, eg you got 10.04LTS up n running, ticked the vm host server install options, and now lets setup your first guest OS [05:42] SailorReality: Ubuntu is Linux [05:42] th^^ what games do you play on your distro and what distro is best for gaming? [05:42] kvm is not for the faint of heart. you probably want to be using virtualbox, even though 4.0.8 has some really annoying UI bugs [05:43] anyone know a good IM/VOIP and file sharing and or remote desktop app for Ubuntu ? My buddy and me are both learning together and wee need a good program that can do that [05:43] i have previously been using vmware server [05:43] can someone type !ping for me [05:43] Guest52979: warsow and quakelive mainly [05:44] Quiz: How to do this using command line. Create 50 folders.Now open 1st and there should be again 50 fol. Open 2nd & again 50 fol and so on.... Now open 1st of 1st fol and there sholud be 50 fol agian and so on...... open each folder at each level and there should be 50 folder in each. Limit- this should happen till 50 levels. You can imageine this as a tree. with each folder growing into 50 more and these 50 grows to more 50 and so on. Till 50 levels. [05:44] Los7puppy: vnc over ssh. filesharing: dropbox. im: pidgin or empathy [05:44] ideally I would have preferred a vmware->kvm converter so I could just point it at the virtual settins and it does the rest [05:44] virtualbox will convert from vmdk to raw I think [05:45] vandemar: it is a headless machine though, will virtual box run headless ? [05:45] another reason to use virtualbox is it handles vmdk natively without conversion [05:45] but i would just as easily run vmware server again [05:45] note: I have had unrepairable drive corruption using vmdks [05:45] gul why would you want to?? [05:45] don't recommend it [05:45] now type !ping pls [05:46] been running a variant of vmware server for years now, no issues [05:46] sabiancrash: so did i... when it was inside an encrypted homedir. since moving it to a separate partition (truecrypt container), I haven't had any problems [05:46] so sounds like kvm is not the way to go, thus will install vmware [05:46] CloudHighwind: run sudo lshw -c video [05:46] sabiancrash: was yours in an ecryptfs homedir? [05:46] vandemar truecrypt runs on nix? [05:47] Blueleaf: first for security ( to keep files). Creating these many folders using keyboard and mouse is toooooo tedious. Second to check if this is possible In Linux. :) [05:47] Blueleaf: yes :) [05:47] Omega: Thank You [05:47] vandemar, for me it corrupted the stage2 portion of grub left it unbootable even after a reinstall of grub [05:47] and mac too [05:47] CloudHighwind: Look for the line with "configuration". The loaded driver is prefixed with "driver:". [05:47] sabiancrash: encrypted homedir or not? [05:47] homedir was encrypted [05:47] gul it is possible, just never considered trying it [05:47] but it didn't get that far so it wasn't the cause [05:48] vandemar native or wine/ [05:48] Blueleaf: native [05:48] Blueleaf: how....... using nested loops , it is possible. but how from command line?

[05:59] Guest52979: I've got a great program that will listen and hack wifi passwords, binary-only I'm afraid [05:59] Guest52979: That's off topic for this network. [05:59] you don't understand enough about WiFI or the encryption protocols never mind it has nothing to do with ubuntu [05:59] How can I see what model of video card and driver I have installed on my system? [06:00] kennett: `lspci -v` or `lshw` [06:01] Guest52979 hang out in #kismet you might learn some things [06:02] sabiancrash, whats that? [06:02] Is su super-user? [06:02] sabiancrash, the channel at least [06:02] join it and see or google the name [06:03] you will learn a little about 802.11 === Guest52979 is now known as rubenjr [06:04] I certainly don't condone "hacking" for malicious or deviant intent. If you using the knowledge against your own systems for your own edification, it can be very rewarding [06:04] !ot | sabiancrash rubenjr [06:04] sabiancrash rubenjr: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [06:04] thanks bazhang I had no idea :P [06:05] nothing like hacking your own system to find out how smart you arent [06:05] Blueleaf, exactly troubleshooting my grub hang issues was a stark reminder of just how smart I am not [06:06] sabiancrash: yeah, its amazing what you can see when you look at your system from underneath === etienne is now known as etienne01 [06:07] Blueleaf, what are you guys talking about? [06:07] I would still like to know how fscking the filesystem ended up causing the entire contents to be placed in .lost+found [06:07] Can someone tell me how I can find my LAN IP for this computer? I could do it in Windows using ipconfig or LAN Properties... but I'm not sure how to here. [06:07] sudo ifconfig [06:07] sabiancrash: thats where the sys puts stuff it doesnt know what to do with [06:07] shaun: ip addr [06:08] sabiancrash: still interesting though..... [06:08] Blueleaf, yah which was the entire contents of the disk [06:08] but it didn't stop there, superblocks were missing, inodes corrupt [06:08] sabiancrash: doing a non-readonly fsck of a mounted filesystem is a horrible idea [06:09] sabiancrash: at least you know where all your files are! Im still looking for mine.. [06:09] vandemar, didn't matter, of course I backed up my virtual drive before performing any action [06:09] Thank you. [06:10] the drive wasn't mounted when I fsck'd it === pawel__ is now known as etienne01 [06:11] so i screwed up my /var directory, i acciendtly did sudo chown -R user1 * so damn ... how do i fix this? [06:12] but going on what vandemar was referring to, you should never fsck a root partition while booted into that partition, bad ideas, I used a live cd and then didn't mount it [06:12] ideas? [06:12] nownot: that's not pretty. I don't know of any easy way to reset permissions for all the files back to their original owners [06:12] really don't want to reinstall [06:13] you scewed up the permissions for a LOT of things [06:13] crap [06:13] yeah [06:13] didnt want to hear that :-( [06:13] ooo that ones gonna hurt [06:13] What is the filename of the Disk Mounter binary executable? [06:13] what if i just set everything to root and change as needed ... [06:13] ? [06:13] bullgard4: `mount` [06:13] i mean, DANG IT!!! [06:14] * sabiancrash tabs his trusty backups [06:14] nownot: well, for instance, a lot of daemons will log to /var/log/whatever and they need their log files to be writable [06:14] vandemar: No. [06:14] or let every one have everything and trust them.... [06:14] all im saying is there needs to be *repair permissions ... the only reason i say this is becase this is what i need .... :P [06:15] nownot: also /var/tmp needs to be rwxrwxrwt, and hundreds of other special cases in /var have similar special requirements [06:15] so reinstall it is ... [06:15] frak [06:15] nownot did you do much special casing? [06:15] bullgard4: no what? [06:15] sabiancrash: huh? i dont know what that means [06:15] vandemar: You answered my questiion wrongly. [06:15] nownot did you alter the permissions of a lot of folders specifically [06:16] well i did recursive on the whole /var directory [06:16] nownot otherwise you can install the same version in a virtual box vm and use that as a reference to slowly repair your dirs [06:16] nownot: You did chown? or chmod? [06:16] Flannel: chown [06:16] bullgard4: are you talking about a special gui mounter, because `mount` is the canonical unix mount command [06:17] just to be clear i have two raid 5, on a reinstall there is a command i can use with mdadm that will check the drives for raid configuration and configure for me .. right? [06:17] w [06:18] nownot: not sure if the default installer disk does that, might need the alternate [06:18] nownot: Thats probably more salvagable than chmod. Most stuff is owned by root, local is root:staff, mail is root:mail. but it does get complicated. [06:18] is ubuntu alacarte gnome panel menu editor dependent on python2? seems broken if i symlink python to python3 [06:18] I am getting "unexpected token `newline'" error.... this is the command which is not working for me... http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/627773/ Can anyone tell where the error is? I can't find it..... [06:18] nownot: You might be able to get most of it by running a liveCD and comparing. once you get three or so levels down, the oddities probably die out (this is just a conjecture) [06:19] a dalek??? holy cow, is the doctor still around? [06:19] vandemar: I am talking about the Disk Mounter utility which is a GNOME panel applet. [06:19] Flannel: well i mean if on a reinstall i can do mdadm setup my old raids then ill just do that [06:20] how do you add your username to sudoers so you don't need to enter a password for sudo? [06:20] nownot: Is /var part of your RAIDs? [06:20] no [06:20] what is? [06:20] frozeninferno: you cant [06:20] frozeninferno: Don't do that! It is dangerous. [06:20] my media [06:20] chowning to root would prolly get you most of the way there [06:20] yeah seems like it requires python2.6, 2.7 breaks it also the gmenu [06:20] royale1223: Yes you can. [06:20] royale1223: i have before, i just forgot how [06:20] nownot: Yeah, that'd work. [06:21] Flannel: which one? [06:21] bullgard4: i've done it before and it was fine, i just forgot how [06:21] Flannel: how? [06:21] nownot: reinstalling and then remounting your RAID afterwards [06:22] does mdadm have a command to scan all drives and auto setup arrays? or is there a way to back up my mdadm config or whats the best way to go about this [06:22] cheers, all [06:22] nownot: you could try installing ubuntu in a vm on another computer, then tarballing /var and copying it over [06:22] royale1223: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sudoers [06:22] vandemar: seems easier to reinstall as long as raid will get set back up [06:22] nownot: You can also do a find /var ! -user root -type d -ls to list all the non root owners and their dirs in a stock install to see what you need to make NOT root [06:22] its just my sever, i dont use it as a everyday machine just to stream media [06:23] !ping [06:23] Here I am, brain the size of a planet and they ask me to respond to factoid requests. Call that job satisfaction? Because I don't. [06:23] Hi! How to select keyboard layout from command line? I need every time gnome screen-saver turned off my layout is set to "us". [06:23] wtf is with the !ping(s) [06:23] how do you add your username to sudoers so you don't need to enter a password for sudo? [06:23] !language | sabiancrash [06:23] sabiancrash: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. [06:24] oh. [06:24] frozeninferno: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sudoers [06:24] lol, "wtf" got a !language? seriously? [06:24] yah, its all corporate [06:24] thanks, flannel [06:24] which prolly is an !ot [06:25] is there a reason unity is so slow on my computer? [06:25] so if i want to on a fresh install re-assembly my raid devices how do i do such? === Corey is now known as KB1JWQ === KB1JWQ is now known as Corey [06:27] nownot Good luck gettin your system back up, be careful with sudo & -R, dangerous stuff, will be back later [06:28] hey [06:29] you can all suck it [06:29] once you edit sudoers using visudo, do the changes automatically take place? [06:29] mrcreativity, define slow and what system/specs. I have run unity on very old and underpowered computers well [06:29] .leave #ubuntu [06:29] frozeninferno: yes. [06:29] hi guys [06:29] core 2 duo 2.0ghz, ati hd2600 256mb [06:30] frozeninferno: Thats why you use visudo, because it checks syntax. [06:30] and the workspace switcher is laggy [06:30] flannel: makes sense. thanks a lot [06:30] gnome 3 is so much smoother [06:30] can anyone tell me how to find the last 10 modified files using grep command or any other? [06:30] new here [06:30] can anyone see this? [06:30] I need help installing .run amd radeon 6xxx drivers!@ [06:30] mrcreativity, I am not sure, thats more than enough power even for software rendering [06:30] Thegoatonly123, ubuntu support issue? [06:30] i know [06:30] Thegoatonly123, yes, we can [06:30] I am having problems trying to use perl or sed to remove this http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/627777/ from about 240+ files in subdirectories... I am getting error unexpected token `newline' because my character escaping is not working out properly... can anyone please convert my string properly so that it will be accepted on the command line? I am desperate... [06:31] gotcha, actually I'm familiar with Ubuntu, but I've never used IRC before [06:31] as an example, unity runs well on a CR 48 which is an atom processor [06:31] I just cant install the .run file [06:31] it says it needs x.org version 6.9 or above [06:31] can anyone tell me how to find the last 10 modified files using grep command or any other? [06:32] How can I donwload that? [06:32] MagePsycho: use 'find' command [06:33] HOW CAN I DOWNLOAD X.ORG SO AS TO INSTALL .RUN FILES? [06:33] (and you can then feed name of those files to grep by doing find |xargs grep [06:33] !caps | Edie__ [06:33] Edie__: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. [06:33] Edie__: X isn't a dependency for .run files? [06:34] BlackDalek: if you had a simpler case with a file containing a bunch of lines, then abc, then more lines, then "def", then more, you would do `sed -i -e "/abc/,/def/ d" ` (but back each file up beforehand in case you screw up) [06:34] Edie__: i guess that is that shell script, check head [06:34] I ran the .run file for my graphic card driver but it just disappeared shortly after I typed in my password [06:34] the last thing i can read is "x.org version 6.9 [06:34] Edie__: what disappeared? [06:34] hola [06:34] Edie__: the file you ran? [06:35] the terminal [06:35] would someone please suggest a good place to find instructions on making scripts? i would like to automate adding ppas using a script./ [06:35] Edie__: What version of Ubuntu are you using? Have you tried the "Additional Drivers" utility? [06:35] additional driverse gave me fglrx which is useless [06:35] it isn't active at all [06:35] mrcreativity: http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ [06:35] and my screen resolution cannot be adjusted [06:35] mrcreativity: http://tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/Bash-Beginners-Guide.html [06:35] mrcreativity: apt-add-repository ? [06:35] oh same paste :) [06:36] thank you [06:36] hi susundberg .. can you help me with full command [06:36] nah I linked the advanced guide :) [06:36] i want to add around 15 ppas, [06:36] that's why I am trying to install the amd driver from amd.com [06:36] MagePsycho: no, you need to read the manpages your self, so you learn to read the manpages, start with "man find" [06:37] vandemar, yes, I was trying sed.... but the thing I want to replace is a long sequence between
