| r4y | Hello, I don't want to make a data CD. I have Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows XP. I typically use Windows Media Player to write CDs and Nero to write DVD. I am wondering is there a way to fit more time then 80 minutes on a CD with data that can fit with in 700 MB using either Ubuntu or Windows XP? | 07:31 |
| r4y | I meant as audio, sorry. | 07:32 |

| r4y | http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1096938 It would take a special CD player. I am not sure if that's the only way, but I looked at a few links I Googled. Bye | 10:50 |

| kristian-aalborg | on a regular, even smallish desktop system? | 15:49 |
| aztek | any body know how make local repo in hdd? | 15:54 |
| kristian-aalborg | aztek, how do you mean? | 16:26 |

| Error404NotFoun1 | holstein: | 17:01 |
| holstein | Error404NotFoun1: hey... whats up? | 17:02 |
| Error404NotFoun1 | nothing much, having problems... | 17:02 |
| Error404NotFoun1 | when i boot ubuntu my mouse dont work for several minutes after boot | 17:02 |
| Error404NotFoun1 | logitech performance mx | 17:03 |
| holstein | and then it works? | 17:03 |
| holstein | without issue? | 17:03 |
| Error404NotFoun1 | yep | 17:04 |
| Error404NotFoun1 | does it on 2 diff computers | 17:04 |
| Error404NotFoun1 | 3 different installs of ubuntu | 17:04 |
| holstein | might just take that long for something to load i suppose | 17:04 |
| holstein | bluetooth? | 17:04 |
| Error404NotFoun1 | no bt | 17:05 |
| holstein | yeah.. who knows | 17:05 |
| holstein | if it were me, id just wait | 17:05 |
| holstein | if its just a few minutes | 17:05 |
| holstein | devices like that can literally *never* work, or have decent support | 17:05 |
| holstein | you could probably find a more development minded person, and ask about what gets loaded when and why and trouble shoot getting it to load faster | 17:06 |
| kristian-aalborg | Error404NotFoun1, a regular wired mouse? | 17:07 |

| hudo | hi, I got lucid and an external usb dvd-drive | 17:12 |
| hudo | how can I identify which device it is to blank a dvdrw medium with cdrecord /dev/mycdrom blank=fast | 17:13 |
| hudo | sorry , cdrecord dev=/dev/mycdrom blank=fast | 17:13 |
| holstein | hudo: i usually just try auto-complete and guessing | 17:14 |
| holstein | i suppose you could right click on the icon on the desktop and gather some info, or maybe navigate there in nautilus or cd around and ls | 17:14 |
| coalwater | i think my ufw is blocking empathy's file transfers, any idea what port/app i should allow ? | 17:25 |
| coalwater | ok ill have to figure that later lol | 17:44 |
| guitar | hello all | 18:08 |
| IdleOne | guitar: welcome. Feel free to ask questions in here and be patient :) | 18:09 |
| guitar | I am...i see you everywhere | 18:10 |
| guitar | ha | 18:10 |
| guitar | okay...i have a pc at work with internet, but the one at home isn't online | 18:10 |
| guitar | i want to download programs from this pc and transfer to the one at home | 18:11 |
| guitar | there doesn't seem to be a "save file" option | 18:11 |
| guitar | KNo201 has been investigating the issue, but my PC doesn't have a Disc burner, but it does have a flash | 18:12 |
| guitar | sorry...usb port so i can use my flash drive | 18:12 |
| holstein | guitar: you have 2 ubuntu boxes? | 18:15 |
| holstein | one without internet? | 18:16 |
| guitar | right | 18:16 |
| holstein | depending on what you want to install, that could be challenging | 18:16 |
| holstein | totally do-able though | 18:16 |
| guitar | so i'm told | 18:16 |
| holstein | let me give you the process in broad strokes | 18:16 |
| holstein | say you want something like vlc... you would look for something like vlc.deb | 18:16 |
| holstein | you also need *all* the dependancies | 18:17 |
| holstein | thats the tricky part depending on how many dependanies | 18:17 |
| guitar | there are programmers who work on ubuntu...right | 18:17 |
| holstein | you might consider downloading whatever the ubuntu equvialent is to the 6 DVD's (or whatever) debian has | 18:17 |
| holstein | you can then point synaptic to use those discs for software instead of the online repositories | 18:18 |
| holstein | AFAIK, you can also make a disc like that for your 'no internet' box | 18:18 |
| guitar | holstein...you lost me at vlc :) | 18:19 |
| holstein | guitar: if it were me... i would go to a freinds house with internet, plug it in, and do what needs to be done | 18:19 |
| guitar | you're right of course | 18:19 |
| holstein | guitar: you'll need to have an alternate source | 18:19 |
| holstein | that could be a DVD | 18:19 |
| guitar | my pc here doesn't even have a burner | 18:20 |
| holstein | http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net/ for example | 18:20 |
| holstein | guitar: you'll need to do something... burn a CD, make a USB volume... plug it in | 18:20 |
| guitar | i was reading about ubuntu last night | 18:20 |
| holstein | this is linux... everything is open and freely available, so the answer is "yes" | 18:20 |
| holstein | you just need to choose how you want to proceed | 18:21 |
| guitar | i would like to drop this idea in the suggestion box | 18:21 |
| holstein | guitar: ?? | 18:22 |
| holstein | what idea? | 18:22 |
| holstein | apt-on-cd is one way | 18:22 |
| guitar | it's a caviot...not much needed in the wired world, but | 18:22 |
| holstein | the other way is to download what you want on to DVD | 18:22 |
| guitar | i also type slow | 18:22 |
| guitar | sorry | 18:22 |
| holstein | theres already several ways to do it | 18:22 |
| holstein | the issue is... i havent needed to do it that way | 18:23 |
| guitar | ok | 18:23 |
| holstein | i used a CD as a repo once | 18:23 |
| guitar | can i use a flash drive? | 18:23 |
| guitar | apt on flash | 18:23 |
| holstein | not a lot of us on the internet are going to have an excuse other than morbid curiosity to have tried it | 18:23 |
| holstein | since we are online | 18:23 |
| guitar | right...the digital divide | 18:23 |
| guitar | i live on the other side of the tracks..so to speak | 18:24 |
| guitar | metaphorically of course | 18:24 |
| holstein | guitar: i can most assuradly say yes, you can | 18:24 |
| holstein | you can take a CD/DVD image if needed, and put that on the USB drive | 18:24 |
| guitar | how | 18:24 |
| holstein | you just use an image file instead of an actual piece of plastic | 18:25 |
| guitar | talk me through it please | 18:25 |
| holstein | i would check out | 18:26 |
| holstein | http://www.planetoss.com/detail.php?id=13 | 18:26 |
| holstein | guitar: just read that by the way.. dont go copying and pasting | 18:27 |
| holstein | thats an old post... some of it would need to be modernized | 18:27 |
| guitar | ok...and i appreciate your time | 18:27 |
| holstein | this is more current | 18:27 |
| holstein | http://basicubuntu.blogspot.com/2009/02/install-on-ubuntu-without-internet.html | 18:27 |
| guitar | you know what I like about this chat room? | 18:28 |
| guitar | it saves all the info | 18:28 |
| holstein | yeah.. officially logged :) | 18:28 |
| guitar | how long does it stay | 18:28 |
| holstein | good question... i think the goal is always | 18:28 |
| guitar | perfect...i was getting so much info from so many people and it sorta..you know | 18:29 |
| holstein | guitar: well, like is said, most of us havent had that need, so its theoretical to me | 18:30 |
| holstein | i know its do-able though... ive talked to folks who have done it | 18:30 |
| holstein | no issues as long as you dont need newer software than what is on the image you have | 18:31 |
| holstein | and, you can always burn or make a new archive with newer pacakges | 18:31 |
| guitar | ok...i'll check it out | 18:31 |
| guitar | thanks holstein | 18:31 |
| holstein | guitar: sure... good luck, let us know how it goes | 18:32 |
| DodgyDave | can anyone help with a KINO issue ? | 18:32 |
| holstein | DodgyDave: whats the issue?... you might need to track down a kino channel | 18:35 |
| DodgyDave | when I start Kino and try to capture video, all I get is a black screen. The red record button isn't lit so I cant capture any video | 18:40 |
| holstein | i would say #ubuntustudio, but i would skip that channel and go right to the ubuntustudio mailing list | 18:41 |
| holstein | https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users its actually quite active, and there are a few video folks | 18:41 |
| holstein | maybe #mythbuntu? | 18:42 |
| holstein | DodgyDave: other than the obvious stuff like double checking the connections and configs, not sure whatelse | 18:42 |
| DodgyDave | I seem to remeber seeing something about having to put a command in the terminal to make it work | 18:43 |
| holstein | relating to your specific hardware? | 18:44 |
| DodgyDave | no Kino in general | 18:54 |

| E3D3 | Hi, I need to use LAMP server for offline php-development. | 20:15 |
| E3D3 | I know absolute nothing from ip, dhcp,server, ports etc. | 20:15 |
| E3D3 | Does somebody knows a crashcourse for noobs ? | 20:15 |
| zkriesse | well are you looking to have a localhost etc? | 20:16 |
| zkriesse | With a database etc? | 20:16 |
| E3D3 | I just want to offline experimenting with PHP, all extraas scare me but whats necessary I will do. | 20:17 |
| zkriesse | Well if you wanna play with PHP just play with it lol | 20:17 |
| zkriesse | You shouldn't need all kinds of junk to practice coding | 20:17 |
| E3D3 | How can I run my code. I have now a /var/www but (copied php-examples) still don't work. | 20:18 |
| zkriesse | Ok what all have you done? | 20:18 |
| zkriesse | Let's start with that | 20:18 |
| E3D3 | Installed LAMP, Apache, PHP5 & requirements. | 20:19 |
| zkriesse | Hmmm ok | 20:19 |
| E3D3 | All tuts expect I know something about internet connections | 20:19 |
| E3D3 | I just want to program & leave connections aside | 20:20 |
| zkriesse | Indeed | 20:20 |
| zkriesse | Which is localhost programming | 20:20 |
| zkriesse | Program, display it on your machine in a web browser to see what it looks like etc | 20:21 |
| E3D3 | You mean, the examples I tried ? | 20:21 |
| zkriesse | No i'm talking about actual coding | 20:21 |
| zkriesse | You want to try coding well how are you going to view it when you have say a webpage coded | 20:21 |
| zkriesse | You'll need to view it in a web browser on your machine ;) | 20:22 |
| E3D3 | That exactly my point | 20:22 |
| E3D3 | I did but only html-part works, no php-signs | 20:23 |
| zkriesse | What's your code? | 20:23 |
| zkriesse | That you're trying to view | 20:23 |
| E3D3 | Something like this (on html-file) : <?php echo"Hi"; ?> | 20:24 |
| E3D3 | & <?php include("menu.php"); ?> with a menu in menu.php | 20:25 |
| zkriesse | pastebin it please | 20:25 |
| E3D3 | Okay, one moment please | 20:26 |
| zkriesse | :) | 20:26 |
| E3D3 | http://jsfiddle.net/zWpka/ [I used the javaScript-block for the menu.php] | 20:39 |
| E3D3 | zkriesse: Had to restart 2 times so give the link again : http://jsfiddle.net/zWpka/ | 20:44 |
| zkriesse | E3D3: what are you using to edit your code? | 20:45 |
| E3D3 | Now Kate text-editor | 20:45 |
| E3D3 | Im in Linux Mint, thought every editor is okay | 20:46 |
| E3D3 | Like to use gEdit to | 20:46 |
| E3D3 | I placed the .html & .php in /var/www/ & another instance of my browser popped up ? Had to kill its process | 20:48 |
| zkriesse | hmm | 20:48 |
| zkriesse | Argh | 20:49 |
| zkriesse | I'm soooo sorry but i gotta run! | 20:49 |
| E3D3 | Thanks, & run | 20:49 |
| zkriesse | Just wait and you should get helped though :) | 20:49 |
| E3D3 | :'( | 20:50 |

| E3D3 | Hi, Im in SuperOS & my Update Manager has 450 update. Only want updating one. How can I unceck the other 449 (not manually) ? | 22:08 |
| holstein | E3D3: i would just go to synaptic, and search for the package you want to update, and mark it to be updated... hit apply | 22:09 |
| E3D3 | It cant, there's no update option there ? | 22:10 |
| E3D3 | I only can remove it with synaptic. | 22:11 |
| holstein | you 'right-click' on the package | 22:11 |
| holstein | theres a 'mark for upgrade' option | 22:11 |
| E3D3 | Did | 22:11 |
| E3D3 | No | 22:11 |
| holstein | you'll have to take a screen shot of that then | 22:12 |
| holstein | maybe you have a rev'd verion of synaptic that im unaware of | 22:12 |
| E3D3 | Where can I paste that screenshot ? | 22:12 |
| holstein | i usually use http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add | 22:13 |
| holstein | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=722130 | 22:15 |
| holstein | this thread says that sudo apt-get install package name will check to see if the latest version is installed, and offer to upgrade | 22:15 |
| E3D3 | Cant make a screenshot with right-mouse window, used the PrtSc-key, other ways to try ? | 22:15 |
| E3D3 | I try the terminal command | 22:16 |
| holstein | E3D3: well, thats not the issue | 22:16 |
| holstein | what are you trying to upgrade? | 22:16 |
| E3D3 | opera browser | 22:16 |
| holstein | how about just unchecking all | 22:17 |
| holstein | and just go and check opera | 22:17 |
| E3D3 | Than I lose my configuration/addons etc ?? | 22:17 |
| holstein | im not following... | 22:18 |
| E3D3 | My update manager has >450 update I dont want & no uncheck all, fun ;-) | 22:18 |
| E3D3 | Guess you talk about the update manager | 22:18 |
| holstein | i think you can right click there too and select none? | 22:18 |
| holstein | theres an option... pretty sure | 22:18 |
| holstein | im not using 11.04 though | 22:18 |
| E3D3 | Must be, I'll try r-click there. | 22:19 |

| holstein | powers out | 22:20 |
| holstein | gotta shut down | 22:20 |
| holstein | bbl | 22:20 |
| E3D3 | R-click there did it, if I knew that before. Not use to that. Feel so stupid (& tirred) | 22:20 |
| E3D3 | Can someone tell this noob an easy way to learn to program PHP offline ? | 22:31 |
| holstein | E3D3: hey... i didnt lose power :) | 22:33 |
| holstein | i like these guys http://www.w3schools.com/php/default.asp | 22:34 |
| holstein | you can always archive it locally i supose | 22:34 |
| E3D3 | Hi holstein, you helped me nice but I as far as when I started this morning. | 22:36 |
| holstein | hey... it could be worse... you could have broken something and be worse off ;P | 22:37 |
| E3D3 | Right, but I broken my little brain. | 22:37 |
| E3D3 | PHP coding seems so easy that I wish how to start. | 22:38 |
| E3D3 | I know JavaScript, looks familiar | 22:38 |
| E3D3 | I already read most of the w3schools php-part. It dont talk how to build an offline envirenment for it. | 22:39 |
| holstein | OH... any LAMP would probably do | 22:40 |
| E3D3 | holstein: Do you think that I'm too stupid or nagging. | 22:40 |
| holstein | check out http://www.turnkeylinux.org/lampstack | 22:40 |
| holstein | you could run that in virtualbox | 22:41 |
| E3D3 | I have LAMP installed but know nothing about servers, ip etc | 22:41 |
| holstein | E3D3: i dont think that... | 22:41 |
| E3D3 | Lost in all those terms that has nothing to do with PHP | 22:41 |
| holstein | E3D3: i say, just take it slow... start with "whats my ip" | 22:41 |
| holstein | you can open a terminal and run | 22:41 |
| holstein | ifconfig | 22:42 |
| holstein | that'll give you the IP of the box you are on | 22:42 |
| holstein | your not trying to serve a box out to the internet, so this'll be easier 'in theory' | 22:42 |
| E3D3 | This is a different OS then I used 1 hour ago so have to find my VirtualBox first | 22:43 |
| holstein | i run test servers like that in virtualbox in bridged networking mode, and the guests get an IP from the local router | 22:43 |
| E3D3 | hmm I first have to install VirtualMachine in this OS. Already get lost in bridged ... & local router, Im never thought about that things | 22:45 |
| holstein | E3D3: those turnkey appliances i linked actually run well live or installed | 22:45 |
| holstein | the normal setup in virtualbox is to share your network | 22:46 |
| holstein | SO the guest doesnt get its own IP | 22:46 |
| E3D3 | Whow man, this doesn't say anything to me, Im really an connection noob | 22:47 |
| holstein | thats usually just fine, BUT, if you want to have a test server available, you use 'bridged adapter' | 22:47 |
| holstein | E3D3: google around, or ask me questions... whatever it takes | 22:47 |
| holstein | you'll need to absorb it somehow | 22:47 |
| holstein | IF you want a test server in Vbox to be available on your network | 22:47 |
| holstein | thats how you do it | 22:47 |
| holstein | i did a presenation the other day at my LUG on turnkey linux and other servers and thats what i did | 22:48 |
| E3D3 | Maybe I should have asked for a internet beginners study instead of offline php programming ? | 22:51 |
| holstein | E3D3: this might be a nice resource for you | 22:51 |
| holstein | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetAndNetworking | 22:51 |
| * holstein needs to try and catch a nap... BBL | 22:52 | |
| E3D3 | Thanks man, iguess thats better than asking endlessly. But its huge info, do I need all that seriously ? | 22:54 |
| E3D3 | May I tell you something private, not sure how to do that. /msg name message ? | 22:55 |
| tenach | E3D3: correct. | 22:55 |
| E3D3 | tenach: Thanks | 22:56 |
| tenach | No problem. :) | 22:56 |
| kristian-aalborg | alright, I just set up a box for my sis | 23:09 |

| kristian-aalborg | halp halp halp | 23:42 |
| kristian-aalborg | I mailed someone a bunch of rar files, an archive in multiple parts | 23:42 |
| kristian-aalborg | now this person has to unpack them.... what software should I suggest, I guess he is on XP or Vista or 7 | 23:43 |
| kristian-aalborg | my heart says 7zip, but winrar might be better, right? | 23:43 |
| Error404NotFoun1 | kristian-aalborg: winrar | 23:43 |
| Error404NotFoun1 | if hes using vista or 7 he shouldnt need extra software | 23:44 |
| kristian-aalborg | yes, I recall winrar as being pretty solid | 23:50 |
| kristian-aalborg | I packed this with the rar command fwiw | 23:51 |
| kristian-aalborg | I linked to both, said start with Winrar | 23:54 |
