| Aer | i found it hard to find a program that would convert to MPC right now im using SoundKonverter its KDE based i think im using gnome | 00:00 |
| === PupUser33dab6 is now known as juangh | ||
| Aer | and im not sure if its SoundKonverter or the way i ripped my music from the CD but it seemed to be tagless the finished audio, once convrted | 00:00 |
| fjorgynn | aha | 00:00 |
| cypha | any psql users? | 00:00 |
| fjorgynn | what's wrong with brasero? | 00:00 |
| Aer | do you know of any good sound converters that support MPC Kazilla ? | 00:01 |
| Kazilla | aer: is mpc a music format or type of tag? | 00:01 |
| kamui | does anyone use cairo-dock | 00:01 |
| Aer | music format | 00:01 |
| Aer | like MP3 or WMA | 00:01 |
| ominomi | :) | 00:01 |
| Kazilla | i normally just use vlc to convert music | 00:01 |
| Aer | you can use vlc to convert music ? | 00:02 |
| Kazilla | yeah | 00:02 |
| Aer | i feel like a noob lol xD | 00:02 |
| Aer | i never knew and i used it for ages | 00:02 |
| Kazilla | yeah its good at reading everything so converts rather well | 00:02 |
| john_rambo | do I need to uninstall the current NVIDIA driver before installing the .run downloaded from their site ? | 00:02 |
| rww | MalelDraconis: given that it's an error on line 55, and there's 50 lines in that pastebin, this is odd. | 00:03 |
| Aer | I will look into it now Kazilla, thanks a lot again :) | 00:03 |
| MalelDraconis | rww: that's what I thought too | 00:03 |
| Kazilla | Aer: no probs :) | 00:03 |
| rww | MalelDraconis: anything in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ ? | 00:03 |
| Aer | I need to stop gaming and get off windows lol, im falling behind in linux xD | 00:03 |
| e_t_ | StevenR: "Since version 0.15 there is a built-in HTTP streaming deamon/server that comes with MPD." http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Configuration#Built-in_HTTP_streaming Once you have HTTP streaming, almost any audio player (e.g. vlc) will work. | 00:03 |
| zaxius | compiz isn't working. what information do you need to help me diagnose it the problem? | 00:03 |
| joshlegs | zaxius, first of all, what isnt working about it | 00:04 |
| MalelDraconis | rww: yeah, .list and .save files for Wine, Chrome, and Pidgin... | 00:04 |
| StevenR | e_t_: yeah, it works, but it's a bit sucky. | 00:04 |
| StevenR | e_t_: that's what I've been using for the last couple of weeks. | 00:05 |
| zaxius | joshlegs: well, i just upgraded from 10.04. my...window manager? in that was different from 11.04. it had like a taskbar along the bottom, kind of like windows. 10.10 had the same thing. 11.04 has this windows 7-like taskbar along the left side by default. but anyway, when i do compiz --replace it errors out. | 00:05 |
| Aer | Hmm, i dont seem to see anyway to convert in vlc unless it has to be done by command line ? | 00:05 |
| joshlegs | oh zaxius .. sounds like you might be beyond my ability tohelp. im still pretty new to linux myself | 00:06 |
| zaxius | joshlegs, haha thanks anyway | 00:06 |
| Kazilla | Aer: i'm in windows atm but there should be a media menu, then conver/save down the bottom | 00:06 |
| StevenR | zaxius: that's the new unity interface | 00:06 |
| joshlegs | sorry bud. good luck | 00:06 |
| Aer | ahh i see | 00:06 |
| tomodachi | Aer: waht kind of conversion do you want to do? personally i use ffmpeg | 00:06 |
| Aer | *needs glasses* lol thanks | 00:06 |
| rww | MalelDraconis: run "cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*" and copy the output to pastebin | 00:07 |
| tomodachi | they have some examples of vonversion on their homepage | 00:07 |
| zaxius | StevenR, ok, do you have any idea what i might need to do to get compiz working? | 00:07 |
| MalelDraconis | rww: k, will do | 00:07 |
| Aer | erm I just need to convert audio files ripped from cd to MPC tomodachi | 00:07 |
| StevenR | zaxius: if you want the older interface, pick "ubuntu classic" for your session type when you login | 00:07 |
| rww | MalelDraconis: oh, wait. | 00:07 |
| MalelDraconis | rww, ok.. | 00:07 |
| tomodachi | Aer: what is mpc? | 00:07 |
| rww | MalelDraconis: last line of sources.list should have a space between "canonical.com/" and "lucid". fix that and try apt-get update again. | 00:07 |
| zaxius | StevenR, let me try that, brb | 00:08 |
| MalelDraconis | rww: thx, will do | 00:08 |
| Aer | tomodachi, its a open source lossy audio codec http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musepack | 00:08 |
| Aer | http://www.musepack.net/ | 00:08 |
| zaxius | StevenR, cool, i like this one better. so it looks like i have SOME visual effects...is it possible compiz is running but just not with my old settings? | 00:10 |
| MalelDraconis | rww, access denied, I can't edit it, and I don't remember how to do it from terminal | 00:10 |
| Aer | thanks for the help guys | 00:10 |
| Aer | but i need to get going its late here :P | 00:10 |
| rww | MalelDraconis: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 00:10 |
| MalelDraconis | rww: thx | 00:10 |
| zaxius | StevenR, it was on. wobbly windows was off so i thought it was broken lol. thanks man. | 00:11 |
| Kazilla | ah wobbley windows, i gave up on them a log time ago lol | 00:13 |
| Kazilla | command line only for me | 00:14 |
| MalelDraconis | rww: ok, so I'm being a total noob, I know, but I thought ^ meant the Shift key... and how do I save the file in nano? | 00:14 |
| rww | MalelDraconis: ^ means Control | 00:14 |
| Kazilla | ctrl+w | 00:14 |
| * MalelDraconis faceplants | 00:15 | |
| MalelDraconis | duh... | 00:15 |
| Kazilla | nano is so much better then vi don't ya think? muhahah | 00:15 |
| MalelDraconis | thanks guys, so ctrl+w to save? | 00:15 |
| Kazilla | yup | 00:15 |
| th0r | MalelDraconis: not in nano | 00:16 |
| MalelDraconis | k, so what command to save in nano? | 00:16 |
| th0r | MalelDraconis: don't you have a menu at the bottom of the screen? | 00:16 |
| jlw | I think ctrl o saves in nano | 00:16 |
| MalelDraconis | yeah, doesn't have a save command | 00:16 |
| rww | MalelDraconis: Ctrl-O, or Ctrl-X to quit and prompt to save | 00:17 |
| rww | MalelDraconis: "WriteOut" | 00:17 |
| MalelDraconis | rww: thanks | 00:17 |
| th0r | MalelDraconis: WriteOut is the same thing | 00:17 |
| Kazilla | oh dran ctrlw is search | 00:17 |
| Kazilla | yeah its cntl o | 00:17 |
| MalelDraconis | so after this, I run sudo apt-get install, right? | 00:17 |
| rww | no, you run sudo apt-get update and see if you get errors | 00:17 |
| MalelDraconis | right, thanks | 00:17 |
| qin | Fell a bit puzzled, is there prepacked ffmpeg for ubuntu with vhooks? | 00:19 |
| MalelDraconis | This was the result: W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid/partner Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.canonical.com_dists_lucid_partner_binary-i386_Packages) W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems | 00:19 |
| MalelDraconis | otherwise, went well | 00:19 |
| rww | MalelDraconis: oh, duh. You can just delete that last line altogether, it duplicates the one above it | 00:20 |
| Kazilla | sounds like outdated repository file or something | 00:20 |
| MalelDraconis | rww: thanks, alot, this helps alot of issues I've been having | 00:20 |
| MalelDraconis | I really need to work from terminal more... | 00:21 |
| dsnyders | HI all! Where do I submit suggestions to improve linux? I think we should be able to right click on the time and set appointments and alarms. | 00:21 |
| Kazilla | terminal is steep learning curve, but once you're there its quite awesome | 00:21 |
| MalelDraconis | and yep, that was it, thanks again for the help! | 00:22 |
| zaxius | i did something in compiz and all my titlebars disappeared. i can't drag any windows around. i even unchecked everything in compiz config settings manager and still no titlebars. | 00:22 |
| MalelDraconis | talk to you guys later | 00:22 |
| Autodidactite | Hi there all out there on Ubuutu l and, I just wanted to mention that I had recently gotten sick and tired of certain ongoing issues with Ubuntu (10.10) and had downloaded, installed and had started using Fedora 15 | 00:23 |
| rww | Autodidactite: Congratulations. Have fun :) | 00:23 |
| Autodidactite | After half an hour on Fedora I came running back very fast to Ubuntu | 00:23 |
| rww | aww :( | 00:23 |
| Autodidactite | This time 11.04 | 00:24 |
| fjorgynn | lol | 00:24 |
| fjorgynn | Fedora xD | 00:24 |
| Autodidactite | And I like Unity very much | 00:24 |
| fjorgynn | Unity </3 | 00:24 |
| fjorgynn | Xfce <3 | 00:24 |
| rww | Oh, good. Glad you found something you like, then :) | 00:24 |
| Autodidactite | Fedora is great and all | 00:24 |
| Kazilla | dsnyders: i would try gnome's evolution | 00:24 |
| prinneh | Does anyone here know anything about patching iwl3945 (intel wireless driver) for the aircrack-ng suite? I've been trying for hours, but no matter what I do my mon0 (wlan0 in monitor mode) is still stuck on channel -1 (monitor all channels). | 00:25 |
| dsnyders | Kazilla, Why are appointments and alarms/reminders tied up with email? | 00:25 |
| Autodidactite | But it took me that to realise just how far Ubuntu has come as an end user day to day desktop designed for human beings of which I happen to be one. | 00:25 |
| dsnyders | I just want to click on something to remind me to tune in to a TV show. | 00:26 |
| dsnyders | Plus, I've had bad experiences with evolution in the past. | 00:27 |
| Kazilla | dsnyders: there are alot of programs out there, evolution just comes with ubuntu i believe | 00:27 |

| susuna77 | hi guys, i've just installed ubuntu 11, and have problem installing programs using apt-get. I think it has to do with local repository(or whatever it's called) being down. When I run "sudo apt-get update" it gets stuck on "http://il.archive.ubuntu.com" and then writes there were errors fetching it. What can I do ? Can I temporary disable using closes repo, and instead use global one ? | 00:28 |
| joshlegs | so i just removed older kernels that were not needed I THINK .... is there anyway to check if theyre still there without rebooting? | 00:29 |
| Kazilla | josh try rebooting and find out, i don't know why you're removing anything in boot | 00:30 |

| yaaase | anyone know a way of determining what location in my dual-boot win7/ubuntu setup is the win7 drive (so i can mount it) without DLing something as epic as GNOME partition mgr? there are no /dev/hda* entries, only /dev/sda thru /dev/sda3 (and sda1,2,3 fail w/ntfs error) | 00:32 |

| fjorgynn | ^^ | 00:33 |
| Kazilla | susuna77: sounds liek it's having problems contacting an update server | 00:33 |
| Kazilla | susuna77: i would try restarting yorur internet modem or something | 00:33 |
| susuna77 | Kazilla: my internet is fine, il.archive.ubuntu.com seems to be down. How can I tell ubuntu to take it from "regular" repo not from closest one, until they resolve this issue ? | 00:34 |
| yaaase | Kazilla "cannot open /dev/sda1" eg | 00:35 |
| Kazilla | susuna77: there is some information here that might help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu | 00:36 |
| YankDownUnder | susuna77, You could always try adding a different DNS server, restarting your network, and seeing if that resolves the issue... | 00:36 |
| AbuMaia | On 11.04, in my monitors preferences window, the checkbox to show "same image on all monitors" is constantly disabled. How do I get it enabled so I can select it? | 00:37 |
| YankDownUnder | susuna77, Ach...nevermind - I'm trying to ping it and it's dead as a doornail. | 00:37 |
| susuna77 | YankDownUnder: yes, its dead, that why ask how I change it from il. to global one | 00:37 |

| Skuzzel | Hey guys, I have quick question, if I do a full install on my 1 TB external hard drive, is there any way for windows to mount the drive and swap files on or off it? | 00:39 |
| edbian | Skuzzel: Well if you didn't erase windows on that drive. Windows can view ext4 if you just install some software (a driver) | 00:39 |
| edbian | Skuzzel: http://www.soluvas.com/read-browse-explore-open-ext2-ext3-ext4-partition-filesystem-from-windows-7/ | 00:39 |
| YankDownUnder | susuna77, Give the link a go: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu | 00:39 |
| edbian | Skuzzel: But it's not recommended to do it a whole lot. | 00:40 |
| Kazilla | Skuzzel: yeah personally i keep os's on their own partition, even if they are on the same disk | 00:40 |
| Kazilla | means you can back them up and resore them | 00:40 |
| === kassius is now known as mercvrivs | ||
| Skuzzel | actually | 00:40 |
| Skuzzel | I just ubuntu installed on the external | 00:41 |
| isaacj87 | Hello all, I realize my question is more related to Fedora, but I was wondering: If I use alien to convert DEBs to RPMs, are the packages okay to be shared with other users? | 00:41 |
| edbian | Skuzzel: So you have windows on an internal drive? That's finei then. | 00:41 |
| Skuzzel | not anything else, but I would still like to be able to plug my external hard drive into another computer running windows and remove or play files from it | 00:41 |
| Skuzzel | edbian: that is correct | 00:41 |
| rww | isaacj87: on the RPM->DEB side of things, we think alien sucks. so probably not :\ | 00:42 |
| rww | !alien | 00:42 |
| ubottu | RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 00:42 |
| edbian | Skuzzel: That windows computer would have to have the software I linked installed to read ext4 | 00:42 |
| Skuzzel | edbian: thanks for the tip | 00:42 |
| aznraver2k | Hi Everyone, I'm having trouble hibernating my Ubuntu 10.04 LTS x64 machine. It will either restart or shutdown but completely forget the state. If I try to suspend, it will just restart and forget the state. Does anyone know a fix or perhaps point me to logs where I can diagnois the problem? Thanks. | 00:42 |
| AbuMaia | How do I get the Monitors Preferences window to activate the "same image on all monitors" check box so that I may enable/disable it? | 00:43 |
| isaacj87 | rww, I see. I've been a long time user of debian-based distros and recently made the switch over to F15. I was hoping to share the generated RPMs (Spotify) with other users. | 00:43 |
| isaacj87 | rww, In any case, thank you for the info. | 00:43 |
| isaacj87 | :) | 00:43 |
| isaacj87 | rww, perhaps I'll just indicate on my github that users can use them at their own risk. | 00:44 |
| fjorgynn | is there a way in xfce to use programs like in the Windows task bar | 00:51 |

| MagicJ | If I am connected to another system using ssh I can access files etc through the GUI - what is the name of the mount point for that so that I can access them by file name? | 00:53 |
| jrib | MagicJ: what? | 00:54 |
| edbian | MagicJ: What? If you are connected to another OS using ssh you cannot access files etc through the GUI. | 00:54 |
| rww | edbian: sure you can. GNOME has a thing for it | 00:54 |
| Kazilla | MagicJ: you can use scp or sftp | 00:54 |
| rww | I think it uses gvfs. | 00:54 |
| edbian | rww: Oh places -> remote server or whatev ? | 00:54 |
| rww | edbian: Connect to server, yeah | 00:55 |
| edbian | Well now that I know what that is I can tell MagicJ I have no idea where the mount point is. /media/something ?? | 00:55 |
| MagicJ | Kazilla: I want to be able for example to, at the shell enter vi /renoteserver/filename and edit that file | 00:55 |
| rww | probably somewhere in ~/.gvfs/. I'm not on GNOME, so no idea. | 00:56 |
| MagicJ | edbian: I just did ls /media - not there | 00:56 |
| linux_is_my_hero | how do i install flash in chrome for 10.10 x64 | 00:56 |

| datakid_ | nothing full blown | 01:02 |
| jimubao | i did an ap-get update | 01:02 |
| syn-ack | datakid_, That's what they all say. :P | 01:02 |
| datakid_ | jimubao, you need to give more info | 01:02 |
| jimubao | and now my ubuntu wont start | 01:02 |
| Kazilla | !ask | jimubao | 01:02 |
| ubottu | jimubao: 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. :-) | 01:02 |
| syn-ack | does it say thing jim? any error messages? | 01:03 |
| jimubao | it said The drive for /raid/sdb1 is not ready or not present. | 01:03 |
| jimubao | i use webmin and set up a software raid | 01:03 |
| syn-ack | Welp. there you go. | 01:03 |
| syn-ack | case closed. NEXT! | 01:03 |
| jimubao | i searched on google ~ and tried skipped it | 01:04 |
| marsfligth | how to create a new menu into Gnome panel instead to use the Drawer? | 01:04 |
| syn-ack | I don't remember if softRAID likes /boot on the array... | 01:04 |
| syn-ack | haven't used softRAID in years | 01:04 |
| jimubao | what should i do now | 01:04 |
| jimubao | after i press skipped it doesnt do anything ~ | 01:05 |
| syn-ack | Well, for one, don't use webmin to configure a RAID | 01:05 |
| jimubao | how can i get into terminal again | 01:05 |
| syn-ack | two, boot into a liveCD and fix the array, if you can. | 01:05 |
| syn-ack | else reinstall. | 01:05 |
| jimubao | waht is da best way to set up raid then ? | 01:05 |
| syn-ack | jimubao, at hte system commandline, of course. | 01:06 |
| jimubao | so dont use webmin to set up raid , instead use the command line ? | 01:06 |
| Kazilla | !raid | jimubao | 01:07 |
| ubottu | jimubao: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 01:07 |
| syn-ack | That's what I would suggest. | 01:07 |
| rww | don't use webmin period. | 01:07 |
| rww | !webmin | 01:07 |
| ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 01:07 |
| jimubao | ah | 01:08 |
| Kazilla | or cpanel lol | 01:08 |
| Kazilla | cpanel is the devils work | 01:08 |
| Kazilla | :D | 01:08 |
| jimubao | i didnt know | 01:08 |
| syn-ack | as is Plesk | 01:08 |
| jimubao | so the best way is to reinstall @@ | 01:08 |
| Kazilla | did you have any data on it? | 01:09 |
| Kazilla | or were you just testing | 01:09 |
| jimubao | i do | 01:09 |
| joshlegs | so i has a question about gnome shell .. | 01:09 |
| jimubao | the raid was working all fine | 01:09 |
| joshlegs | wanted to download this shell >> http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/malys+-+GnomeShell+RC+1.02?content=142262 | 01:09 |
| jimubao | untill last night after i did update on da syste , | 01:09 |
| joshlegs | but im getting the following messages http://pastebin.com/mwhEAW9G | 01:10 |
| jimubao | Kazilla, should i unplug the cable and reinstalla ubuntu ? | 01:10 |
| joshlegs | do i need to update repositories? | 01:10 |
| jimubao | unplug cable for the raid hd ? | 01:10 |
| syn-ack | no | 01:10 |
| Kazilla | jimubao: if you reinstall that will wipe all dta | 01:10 |
| syn-ack | you can configure the array during install. | 01:11 |
| edbian | joshlegs: Those packages apparently aren't in any of your repos. | 01:11 |
| joshlegs | thats what i thought edbian .. how can i update my repositories? | 01:11 |
| joshlegs | or does this mean i wont be able to get that shell? | 01:11 |
| edbian | joshlegs: first thing that's easy. Synaptic -> Edit -> Software sources and enable more | 01:11 |
| itaylor57 | joshlegs, that depends on gnome3 and would be unsupported | 01:11 |
| joshlegs | ohh ok | 01:12 |
| joshlegs | doh. thanks anyway :) | 01:12 |
| edbian | joshlegs: It's not about 'updating' them it's about getting repos that have those packages in them. | 01:12 |
| jimubao | Kazilla, even though those are in diff hd ? i have 80 gb installed ubuntu10.10 and 2 x 1tb running raid 1 | 01:12 |
| joshlegs | oh ... ok. im still new to this edbian, so im not sure the nuances of what you said :P though i think iget the drift | 01:12 |
| edbian | joshlegs: sure :) what questions do you have? | 01:12 |
| jimubao | syn-ack, what amd i suppose to configure during install ? | 01:12 |
| joshlegs | can i even get the repositories that have those packages edbian? | 01:13 |
| isaacj87 | joshlegs, it isn't difficult to install Gnome3 on Ubuntu, but you'll have to add the PPA repos | 01:13 |
| edbian | joshlegs: I do not know. | 01:13 |
| edbian | joshlegs: A PPA is a personal repo (personal for whoever made it) | 01:14 |

| fjorgynn | ah there | 01:21 |
| jimubao | Kazilla: i'm stucked with The drive for /media/sdb1 is not ready or not present. | 01:21 |
| itaylor57 | !gnome3 | joshlegs | 01:21 |
| ubottu | joshlegs: Gnome 3 is not currently supported on Ubuntu. A PPA for natty is available at https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3 but these packages are EXPERIMENTAL and UNSTABLE, will break Unity and possibly other parts of your system, and cannot be downgraded safely. | 01:21 |
| th0r | fjorgynn: well, the panel config is stored in ~/.config/xfce4/panel, but I have not had good luck messing with it | 01:21 |
| jimubao | what can i do now to be able to mount the drive again and retrieve my data first | 01:21 |
| Kazilla | jimubao: someone else may be able to help you, i'm not sure | 01:22 |
| BigPalabra | Hi, what it's the command to edit GRUB ?? | 01:22 |
| Dr_Willis | the drive may not be at sdb1 | 01:22 |
| jimubao | ok | 01:22 |
| Dr_Willis | BigPalabra: you edit teh grub config files and rerun update-grub | 01:22 |
| Dr_Willis | !grub2 | BigPalabra | 01:22 |
| ubottu | BigPalabra: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10) | 01:22 |
| Kazilla | BigPalabra: the options you see in grub can be edited in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 01:23 |
| BigPalabra | Dr_Willis: I can't do it in the GUI, I need the command for command line | 01:23 |

| c0br42 | whats the command to stop apache2 server? | 01:23 |
| joshlegs | hmm. ill probably stick with gnome 2 for now =\ | 01:23 |
| Dr_Willis | BigPalabra: use whatever text editor you want.. gui or text dozent matter... | 01:23 |
| joshlegs | im not familiar enough yet to do otherwise :( | 01:23 |
| Dr_Willis | BigPalabra: you edit the configs.. and rerun update-grub... | 01:23 |
| BigPalabra | Dr_Willis: I can't do it in GUI | 01:24 |
| c0br42 | ? | 01:24 |
| Dr_Willis | BigPalabra: i never said you had to do it in the gui..... | 01:24 |
| mykal | hi all. looking for the simplest way to set up a web-server on localhost that will parse php. gui prefered. any suggestions? | 01:24 |
| Dr_Willis | BigPalabra: there are console text editors. | 01:24 |
| Kazilla | c0br42: /etc/init.d/httpd stop or service apache stop | 01:24 |
| edbian | joshlegs: Drop the other foot! Jump in and break a million things! :D It's the best part of linux | 01:24 |
| BigPalabra | Dr_Willis: OK, but what is the command ??? | 01:24 |
| isaacj87 | joshlegs, probably for the best. TBH, I tried the Gnome3 install on Ubuntu 11.04 and wasn't happen with the results. I ended up installing Fedora 15 which is the best solution if you want Gnome3. | 01:24 |
| wildbat | !lamp| mykal | 01:24 |
| ubottu | mykal: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 01:24 |
| isaacj87 | happy** | 01:24 |
| joshlegs | hahaha edbian give me a month or two :D i dont even know any coding language =\ | 01:24 |
| BigPalabra | Dr_Willis: OK, but what is the command for the default text editor ??? | 01:25 |
| mykal | wildbat, thanks, will look up | 01:25 |
| Dr_Willis | BigPalabra: depends on what text editor you want.. You really should read that grub2 docs.. | 01:25 |
| edbian | joshlegs: :) | 01:25 |
| Dr_Willis | BigPalabra: nano, vi, pico, depends on what you like. | 01:25 |

| joshlegs | though im trying to learn edbian .... i want to make more customized looks (specially for some of these programs .... though maybe these shells will make it nicer) | 01:25 |
| Dr_Willis | jimubao: boot the live cd, and edit the file. is one way | 01:25 |
| BigPalabra | Dr_Willis: THX | 01:25 |
| fjorgynn | is there a way to move and stick something in xfce4 panel? | 01:26 |
| wildbat | jimubao: boot with livecd and mount the root/ then fix the fstab | 01:26 |
| jimubao | Dr_Willis: i only have 11.04 usb start up | 01:26 |
| Dr_Willis | fjorgynn: You may want to check the Xfce homepage/docs/guides. and the xfpanel docs/manpages.. it may be a config file you edit. | 01:26 |
| Dr_Willis | jimubao: so? boot it to the desktop. and start editing the files | 01:27 |
| fjorgynn | yeah like that | 01:27 |
| fjorgynn | now it worked | 01:27 |
| Dr_Willis | fjorgynn: there is the #xubuntu channel also. I havent used xfce in ages. | 01:27 |
| jimubao | Dr_Willis, yeap i'm going to do that now, however i'm not very sure what am i suppose to edit | 01:28 |
| Dr_Willis | !fstab | jimubao | 01:28 |
| ubottu | jimubao: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 01:28 |
| Dr_Willis | jimubao: without more info.. im not sure we can tell you what needs to be done. | 01:29 |

| the_batman | ah yeah that's exactly what I wanted thanks maahes | 01:40 |
| DrDeeps | how stable is the current 11.10 release? | 01:41 |
| the_batman | another: a console app to neatly display the apache access log info instead of tail | 01:42 |
| maahes | DrDeeps→ That's a vague question. It's stable, but its not the LTS version. | 01:42 |
| maahes | which is "more stable" | 01:42 |
| maahes | the_batman→ colortail, tail -f | most/less | 01:43 |
| maahes | vim | 01:43 |
| the_batman | is there anything more specific to apache logs that could add more info | 01:43 |
| the_batman | without doing it too big | 01:43 |
| the_batman | :) | 01:43 |
| maahes | colortail (and there's a few other similar apps) allows you to add highlights and such for certain information | 01:44 |

| bobweaver | I just put it /usr/local/bin lets see if that does it | 01:52 |
| YankDownUnder | bobweaver, Yeppers mate - that should do it - either put it in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin => make sure you've chmod'd it for executable.... | 01:54 |
| Kazilla | bobweaver: you can make a symbolic link in /usr/local/bon | 01:54 |
| Kazilla | i mean usr/local/bin | 01:54 |
| bobweaver | still nothing | 01:54 |
| bobweaver | I chmod 777 the thing | 01:54 |
| YankDownUnder | bobweaver, Um, chmod +x nameofscript | 01:55 |
| qin | bobweaver: Do you want this script to open terminal? | 01:55 |

| bobweaver | brb | 01:56 |
| qin | bobweaver: or maybe: gnome-terminal -e "bash /path/to/telnet something" | 01:57 |
| maahes | also, what's the command line option for immediately spitting out all errors into STDOUT? 2>&1 or something? | 01:57 |
| Kazilla | bobweaver: /usr/local/bin should work, you might just need to logout then back in again for it to pick it up | 01:57 |

| canu-qumm | YankDownUnder: murrine-themes are already the newest version. | 02:03 |
| YankDownUnder | canu-qumm, Apparently, "Candido" is part of the Murrine collection mate. That being said, then it would already be installed. ;) | 02:04 |
| canu-qumm | YankDownUnder: How do you explain "This theme will not work properly because the required GTK+ theme engine 'Candido' is not installed" | 02:05 |
| canu-qumm | YankDownUnder: One time I sort of successfully installed it, this problem still occurs.. what should I do? | 02:05 |
| YankDownUnder | canu-qumm, I'm looking at the Berlios site - did you download the DEB for it? | 02:05 |
| canu-qumm | YankDownUnder: I do not have an idea, I did all that months ago. | 02:06 |

| YankDownUnder | canu-qumm, I'm looking at the links via gnome-look.org, which then take me to DeviantArt.com.... | 02:12 |
| canu-qumm | YankDownUnder: I hate when links take you to some site instead of downloading the files right there. | 02:12 |
| YankDownUnder | canu-qumm, It also states that it needs "rezlooks" engine as well... | 02:13 |
| canu-qumm | YankDownUnder: :| all I need is the candido engine. Having to deal with another engine might just end up with the same problem, doubtful but you never know.. | 02:14 |
| YankDownUnder | canu-qumm, The "theme engines" generally don't conflict with each other... | 02:14 |
| canu-qumm | YankDownUnder: that's why I said 'doubtful', so is rezlooks in the depositories? | 02:15 |
| YankDownUnder | canu-qumm, Look, on the gnome-look.org site, there are several results for searching on "candido"...have you checked them out? Like the one listed as "Candido Watermark"? | 02:15 |
| YankDownUnder | canu-qumm, Not sure about "rezlooks" mate... | 02:15 |

| edbian | canu-qumm: I've found (via google) some peoples saying that it's just poorly written. The warning shows up but the theme is in fact working just fine. I am going to try some of the other themes to see if they look like the screenshots. | 02:39 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE Lucid and Maverick) also exist. | 02:40 |

| edbian | canu-qumm: That is the behavior that I am experiencing | 02:41 |

| d784 | it gives me a error,''you have to many account register," | 02:42 |

| d784 | i know u have to use the drop command | 02:42 |
| canu-qumm | edbian: display the warning* | 02:42 |
| edbian | canu-qumm: If you double click the engine right now does it display any errors or at the top does it say something like 'package of the same version already installed' ? | 02:43 |
| edbian | canu-qumm: Here's the thread of people saying that the warning is always there (FYI) : https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=59579 | 02:44 |
| canu-qumm | edbian: not in my situation, it displays the warning and it doesn't work either. | 02:45 |

| flametai1 | bazhang, the keyboards about only 3 months old. | 04:19 |
| bazhang | sanjid, use windows tools for that | 04:19 |
| sanjid | alright, pass level zero it is | 04:19 |
| sanjid | thank you very much bazhang! | 04:19 |
| flametai1 | I dun see why it would need cleaning? | 04:20 |
| flametai1 | Hell it still looks brand new actually LOL | 04:20 |
| sanjid | have you tried using another keyboard? | 04:21 |
| bazhang | taraduffy, not sure, it's inconsistent; sometimes it'll show up, sometimes a logout and login will bring it (ie the menu item) | 04:21 |
| flametai1 | sanjid, Nope, but I've tried this one on Windows 7 and hasn't given me any problems. | 04:21 |
| bazhang | linux_is_my_hero, try the screensaver/powersaver settings, I suppose | 04:22 |

| TrentonAdams | I'm experiencing a problem where my user interface for ubuntu classic slows down sometimes. It suddenly starts being really slow to respond to even the keyboard.

| kameron | bazhang, i think i found the device is mounted on /dev/ttyUSB0 I just can't find any software that isn't buggy as heck to work for me now. | 04:36 |

| HackNewton | i mean you dont need to do any extra setup for that | 04:40 |
| kameron | TrentonAdams, i'm thinking it'll be pretty snappy on windows in a virtualbox. but that's a copout i'm not willing to do yet. the bluetooth version paired to an android or iphone looks pretty slick. | 04:40 |

| viking667 | If I use the router (it's got busybox, and it includes a ping command) it gets 50ms or so. If I use a Windows machine, I get the same result as the router. | 07:19 |

| Chheap | Hi, How could I use my scanner / printer with xubuntu. The device is connected to a windows machine. I got the printing working but i cant scan with it through xubuntu. I've tried simplescan, image scan, and xane but none of those allow me to select a network scanner. So is this even possible? printer is epson s125 | 07:21 |
| Chheap | sx125* | 07:22 |
| viking667 | well, that's a hell of a bug to hav. | 07:22 |
| viking667 | err, have, rather. | 07:22 |
| viking667 | incidentally, another machine (running Sourcemage) gets normal responses too... | 07:23 |

| viking667 | 2.6.39 or 40 | 07:23 |

| crackerjackz | Chipzzz, when i run sudo apt-get build-dep it says that i must specify at least one package to check builddeps for | 08:34 |
| peenteam | llutz - the swap partition will have unique uuids for each distro, hence pay attention when assigning during install? | 08:35 |
| nikolam | Fossilet, previous to that, firestarter started behaving strangely not being able to start firewall upon ppp0 lisng established. And I was always having icmp filtered and only echo to put in and I was surfing rof few hours without that filter, And now that filter is eather on or off, ping do not work. Maybe it is firefox versus new ubuntu updates. | 08:35 |
| crackerjackz | nikolam, i have problems with firestarter too | 08:35 |
| nikolam | crackerjackz, from today? | 08:35 |
| crackerjackz | from everyday lol.. i just use my router now | 08:35 |
| llutz_ | peenteam:yes | 08:36 |
| nikolam | to me, firestarte works like a charm since version 7.10 of ubuntu | 08:36 |
| Tonk1o1 | could someone try instal firesheep and tell me if it works for you? | 08:36 |
| llutz_ | peenteam: better to use device-names than UUIDs for swap in this case | 08:36 |
| crackerjackz | nikolam, maybe i just don't know what i'm doing | 08:36 |
| llutz_ | (/etc/fstab) | 08:36 |
| peenteam | thanx llutz - i'll keep an eye on it. | 08:36 |
| Fossilet | nikolam: I do not know why it's not permitted even it's set root id. | 08:36 |
| nikolam | crackerjackz, are you on latest ubuntu or on LTS? | 08:36 |
| crackerjackz | nikolam, 11.04 natty narwhal | 08:37 |
| nikolam | I am on 10.04 LTS | 08:37 |
| nikolam | I am thinking of updating to catch up now. | 08:37 |
| nikolam | even I like using LTS the most. | 08:37 |
| Fossilet | nikolam: Desktop? | 08:37 |
| nikolam | desktop. | 08:37 |
| Fossilet | nikolam: We may be using the same ping binary | 08:37 |
| Fossilet | md5sum /bin/ping | 08:38 |
| nikolam | 335955be2ebb6a7910d07f1af57a89e1 /bin/ping | 08:38 |
| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: sorry, sudo apt-get build-dep linux-headers-2.6.38-10-generic, sudo apt-get build-dep linux-headers-generic | 08:38 |
| nikolam | Anyway, I need to report this as a bug etc. Sounds to curious to be disbanded | 08:38 |
| Fossilet | nikolam: not the same, though the same size. | 08:38 |
| Fossilet | nikolam: Ok. | 08:39 |
| hoodlum | I played around with chmod. Ended up with cleared desktop and no access to the system. After a chaotic session with different solutions it's finally back. But I'd like to check if it's really ok with some diagnostic tool. | 08:40 |

| llutz_ | hoodlum: there are no such tools in your situation | 08:40 |
| wildbat | hoodlum: : i don't think there is tool to do it~ since there are different packages that could create its own user / group ~ and there is no way to check all that ~ if you really worry ~ do a flesh install. | 08:40 |

| hoodlum | balls. | 08:41 |
| nikolam | Fossilet, fping works. | 08:41 |
| kaellan | someone got time to help me intal firesheep? pls | 08:42 |
| kaellan | getting 1 error all the time .. :( MozPopenModule.cpp:24:31: fatal error: nsIGenericFactory.h: No such file or directory | 08:46 |

| llutz_ | kaellan: ^^ | 08:48 |
| llutz_ | kaellan: you'll need one of these -dev packages | 08:48 |
| kaellan | how i get? | 08:49 |
| llutz_ | apt-get install | 08:49 |
| hoodlum | Maybe this way though: I was playing mostly with chmod 700 and /home got involved. Then I played with solutions to this, just to get back how it was before I started "playing" with it. It seems I succeed, but do all this could broke my INTERNET security? I mean threats from "outside" | 08:50 |
| kaellan | just typing apt-get install sais i got all | 08:50 |
| kaellan | mind pm me ? so i can send the log ? | 08:50 |
| kaellan | couldnt pm u with it | 08:51 |
| llutz_ | kaellan: i can't help you with that, sorry | 08:51 |
| kaellan | then how do i get that dev pack i need? what to type? | 08:52 |
| venol | Helo, Excusme.. I have little problem with mailgraph.. Why mailgraph not show the graph if my server receive message. I know mailgraph was update rrd because I run mailgraph with --verbose. I have receive message every 1 minutes and I see /var/log/mailgrah.log was updated. But, Why graph is not shown by mailgraph immediately? thanks for your explanation. | 08:53 |
| Tatayoyo | szal: So i checked the md5sums, and it seems to be ok, but when I used the self-check option, it tells me the cd-rom isn't valid. The thing is I am using a usb stick, so maybe this isn't accurate :s | 08:53 |
| mang0 | Reckon you guys should know best: Other then docky, what dock do you reccomend? | 08:54 |
| ikonia | venol: are you using Ubuntu ? | 08:55 |

| glebihan | kaellan, where did you get the source from ? | 09:00 |
| kaellan | http://blog.anidear.com/2010/11/using-firesheep-in-ubuntu-finally.html | 09:00 |
| kaellan | im folowing that guide | 09:00 |
| crackerjackz | Chipzzz, sudo apt-get build-dep linux-headers-2.6.38-10-generic here is the output http://pastebin.com/UQLH7rL9 | 09:04 |
| kaellan | hmm, i got loged out agen and i have the logout hotkey removed :S gahh | 09:06 |
| todeno | ?? | 09:07 |
| kaellan | i sometimes get loged out for no reason from ubuntu :/ | 09:07 |
| kaellan | i was thinking it maybe was some hotkey so i removed it and still i sometimes get loged out | 09:08 |
| glebihan | kaellan, what command does bring the error message you mentioned ? | 09:08 |
| mang0 | is there a program for ubuntu to recover deleted data? | 09:09 |
| ikonia | mang0: from what ? | 09:09 |
| kaellan | glebihan: make | 09:09 |
| kaellan | glebihan: most of the time "git submodule update --init" dosnt work either | 09:10 |
| libo | ho | 09:10 |
| mang0 | ikonia: Long story, but I've got 2 HDDs, one windows, one ubuntu. The windows one has...gone wrong, i can't boot it and I can't see any of the files in Ubuntu when I mount it, even though it's a 120gb HD and there is only 114GB free, which makes me think the file table is messed up... | 09:11 |
| glebihan | kaellan, did you check that the path in the command ./autogen.sh --with-xulrunner-sdk="/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2.12" was the correct one (check the version of xulrunner installed on your system) | 09:11 |
| mang0 | I need a program to check if my data is actually gone, or if it's just hidden very well with a messed up file table | 09:11 |
| ikonia | mang0: you'd be better trying to talk to the ##windows guys about recovering ntfs | 09:12 |
| kaellan | glebihan: i change version to 2.0" | 09:12 |
| mang0 | ah | 09:12 |
| mang0 | okay | 09:12 |
| mang0 | thankyou | 09:12 |
| ikonia | mang0: within linux ntfs is a reverse engineered product so not the best support | 09:12 |
| kaellan | glebihan: and i got the 2.0 and -dev pack | 09:12 |
| venol | ikonia: I'm sory if i'm late to reply. Yes, I use ubuntu 10.04 server | 09:13 |
| kaellan | glebihan: does it work for you? | 09:13 |
| glebihan | kaellan, no but I'm not getting the same error message as you are... looking into it | 09:13 |
| ikonia | venol: then I suggest you stop asking in #debian | 09:13 |
| venol | ikonia: Ok.. | 09:14 |
| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: I really think it's the nVidia driver that's causing the linux-headers not to configure properly... do you have EnvyNG? (Applications->System Tools->EnvyNG) | 09:15 |
| venol | ikonia: So, what the problem about mailgraph not shown the graph immediately if postfix receive or send a message. I see log in /var/log/mailgraph.log was updated. | 09:15 |
| gribouille | hi | 09:16 |

| glebihan | kaellan, looks like they forgot a few dependencies in that tutorial, this one seems to have worked for me : http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2010/11/26/install-firesheep-on-ubuntu-10-04-or-10-10/ | 09:17 |
| ikonia | venol: no idea | 09:17 |
| kaellan | glebihan: oh thx :) | 09:17 |
| glebihan | kaellan, you're welcome, let me know if it works | 09:17 |

| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: Do you mind uninstalling the nVidia drivers to find out? | 09:20 |
| Chipzzz | ( sudo sh NVIDIA* --uninstall ) | 09:21 |
| Chipzzz | ... I ask because it could turn into something of a project... | 09:21 |
| crackerjackz | Chipzzz, will that make gnome stop working? should i come into the IRC on my laptop? | 09:21 |
| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: the generic driver should load instead but sometimes these things don't work out the way they should | 09:22 |
| Chipzzz | The laptop might be a good idea | 09:23 |
| crackerjackz | Chipzzz, it says sh: can't open nvidia | 09:23 |

| mmarczyk | hi! a maverick update to initramfs-tools today failed with a message including the line 'awk: fatal error: internal error: segfault' and all attempts to regenerate initrd.img since then (including during and attempted downgrade to the previous version of initramfs-tools) are failing with the same message; any idea what's going on? | 09:26 |
| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: try lsmod | grep nouveau to make sure it isn't using the open source driver... you should not get any output | 09:26 |

| old_monk | mang0 sudo | 09:27 |
| Calinou | idiot antiflood is idiot | 09:27 |
| Calinou | yeah, sudo, sudo su, sudo <command> | 09:27 |
| crackerjackz | Chipzzz, it returned no output | 09:28 |
| glebihan | Calinou, never use "sudo su", use "sudo -i" instead | 09:28 |
| Calinou | what's the difference? | 09:28 |
| Calinou | i never use sudo su anyway, always sudo <command> | 09:28 |
| glebihan | Calinou, "sudo su" doesn't set properly the environment variables | 09:29 |
| kaellan | glebihan: how to get a older verion of firefox? :) | 09:29 |
| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: ok, so the nVidia drivers are installed... look around in your home directory for the install directory (ls ~/ -al) | 09:29 |
| glebihan | kaellan, why would you want an older version ? firesheep isn't supported on the latest one ? | 09:29 |
| kaellan | glebihan: not suported in newer ones, need like ff 3.5 to 3.6 ^^ | 09:30 |
| jll | good morning | 09:31 |
| jll | I'm using ubuntu 10.10 and I have all the updates installed but firefox crashes on pogo games. any thing I can do to fix this? | 09:33 |
| venol | Helo, Excusme.. I have little problem with mailgraph.. Why mailgraph not show the graph if my server receive message. I know mailgraph was update rrd because I run mailgraph with --verbose. I have receive message every 1 minutes and I see /var/log/mailgrah.log was updated. But, Why graph is not shown by mailgraph immediately? thanks for your explanation. | 09:33 |
| crackerjackz | Chipzzz, i can't find it | 09:33 |
| kaellan | glebihan: not suported in newer ones, need like ff 3.5 to 3.6 ^^ | 09:33 |
| kaellan | glebihan: 3.6 i need | 09:33 |
| StevenR | venol: is the rrd that's being updated, and the graph you're looking at, in the same location? | 09:33 |
| venol | StevenR: Yes | 09:34 |
| venol | venol: The graph is shown. But I'm wait so long.. even rrd was update | 09:34 |
| venol | StevenR: The graph is shown. But I'm wait so long.. even rrd was update | 09:34 |
| kaellan | how to uninstal firefox ? | 09:35 |
| jll | hello can anybody help me with a java issue? | 09:35 |
| crackerjackz | kaellan, sudo apt-get remove firefox | 09:36 |
| StevenR | venol: I don't understand what you mean. | 09:36 |
| venol | StevenR: How long mailgraph show the graph by default ? | 09:36 |
| Chipzzz | it must have been installed with jockey then... it makes uninstallation more difficult :( ... let me find the article for you... | 09:36 |
| glebihan | kaellan, you would have to uninstall your current version and manually install an older one, but I would not really recommend it | 09:37 |
| glebihan | kaellan, isn't there any other equivalent extension that you could use with your current version of firefox ? | 09:37 |
| kaellan | glebihan: dont know, ^^ im using chromium usualy so just gona get firefox and this firesheep to steal cookies :D | 09:38 |
| venol | StevenR: I'm sorry. I mean is the rrd was updated, But the graph not shown immediately. Is mailgraph show the graph if the postfix receive and sent message immediately? Or maybe mailgraph displaying images based on specific time ? | 09:39 |
| StevenR | venol: does the graph update eventually? | 09:39 |
| jll | ok maybe I need to make it easier, is there another browser besides firefox that can handle the java plugin? firefox keeps closing on pogo games | 09:39 |
| mmarczyk | kaellan: you could download ff from the webpage, unpack somewhere in ~ and run it from there; nb. it'll still use the same default profile location | 09:40 |
| oCean | kaellan, glebihan please realize that all illegal activities are offtopic in this channel | 09:40 |
| bazhang | kaellan, why did you want to get firesheep, please be very clear | 09:40 |
| kaellan | to spy on my gf xD wana see what she is typing on facebook lol | 09:41 |
| glebihan | oCean, I know that | 09:41 |
| bazhang | kaellan, then stop it. | 09:41 |
| kaellan | in fact im gona spy on my own computer so whats the problem ? | 09:41 |
| kaellan | hardly ilegal | 09:42 |
| bazhang | kaellan, you stated you wanted to steal cookies | 09:42 |
| jll | can someone at least tell me hello, wait or something? | 09:42 |
| bazhang | !java | jll | 09:42 |
| ubottu | jll: To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu on 10.04 LTS and newer, see http://tinyurl.com/2ffg7cc - For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 09:42 |
| mmarczyk | I kind of regret answering now. :-/ | 09:42 |
| bazhang | !partner | jll | 09:42 |
| ubottu | jll: Canonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » | 09:42 |
| kaellan | could just copy past em buth this way is more fun | 09:42 |
| glebihan | jll, what version of firefox are you using ? | 09:42 |
| venol | StevenR: Yes.. | 09:43 |
| StevenR | venol: then it's probably a setting in whatever mailgraph uses for a config file | 09:43 |
| jll | thank you for answering, I was willing to wait knowing that you guys are busy helping other people. | 09:43 |
| jll | let me check | 09:43 |
| mmarczyk | jll: I used to run some Java applets in Chrome | 09:43 |
| mmarczyk | probably 8 versions back, though | 09:44 |
| jll | 3.6.18 | 09:44 |
| kaellan | and btw, now im just asking for help on geting a older verion of firefox (3.6) | 09:44 |
| bazhang | kaellan, not supported here, what you're trying to do. | 09:45 |
| venol | StevenR: I think so. But I make sure configuration file used by mailgraph is correct. The graph finally is display by mailgraph, but the problem I don't know when mailgraph display the graph. do you know how long mailgraph display the graph ? | 09:45 |
| jll | glebihan, I'm using firefox 3.6.18 | 09:45 |
| glebihan | jll, I would first suggest to upgrade firefox to a more recent version | 09:45 |
| kaellan | so it aint suported to instal an older version of firefox? :) | 09:46 |
| jll | ok, do I do that with the synantic package thing or how? for I don't know anything about how to use the terminal | 09:46 |
| bazhang | kaellan, please stop asking for help with getting firesheep to run | 09:46 |
| glebihan | jll, yes you can do that with synaptic | 09:47 |
| Calinou | kaellan: what disto do you use? | 09:47 |
| kaellan | whats disto ? | 09:47 |
| crackerjackz | Chipzzz, the driver that is causing the problem is nvidia-common right? | 09:47 |
| Calinou | distribution... | 09:47 |
| Calinou | i meant distro | 09:47 |
| ministerdude | This os crashes more than windows vista | 09:48 |
| kaellan | ubuntu 11.04 | 09:48 |
| glebihan | jll, in a terminal, you would have to type "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install firefox" | 09:48 |
| jll | I just opened synaptic but it only showed the firefox that I have currently installed, nothing newer. | 09:48 |
| crackerjackz | ministerdude, ? | 09:48 |
| ministerdude | Ubuntu has crashed on me once every hour | 09:48 |
| Tatayoyo | szal: I re-created the usb stick, but this time i did it under linux with usb-creator, and even if the self-check failed again, the installation is going and seems to be working, so if you don't hear from me anymore it means i have succeded :-s ... Thanks for your help ! | 09:48 |
| mang0 | thanks oCean ! | 09:48 |
| ministerdude | honestly. I don't like it at all and I want it gone :) | 09:48 |
| Calinou | ubuntu never crashed for me, ministerdude | 09:48 |
| mang0 | ministerdude: can you see this message? | 09:49 |
| glebihan | jll, which release of Ubuntu are you using ? | 09:49 |
| Calinou | it's just bad luck, or bad configuration | 09:49 |
| ministerdude | 10.04 | 09:49 |
| Calinou | mang0: yes i can. | 09:49 |
| mang0 | oh good | 09:49 |
| mang0 | thankyou :) | 09:49 |
| ministerdude | update manager won't let me update to 10.11 | 09:49 |
| Calinou | it's 11.04... | 09:49 |
| Calinou | and prefer re installing than updating | 09:49 |
| jll | glebihan, I put that in the terminal (copy and paste) and it's doing something. | 09:49 |
| jll | firefox is already the newest version. | 09:49 |
| jll | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 5 not upgraded. | 09:49 |
| Calinou | updating is not a real update. | 09:49 |
| ministerdude | All I wanna know is a few step by step things if that's ok | 09:49 |
| mmarczyk | any help with awk segfault during initramfs-tools upgrade? | 09:50 |
| ministerdude | WINE doesn't work on this machine so I can't use itunes | 09:50 |
| ministerdude | so. I need to jailbreak my iphone and the package I downloaded refuses to instal though it was built for linux | 09:50 |
| glebihan | jll, ok but which release of Ubuntu are you running ? maybe the latest versions of firefox are not in the repositories for your release ? | 09:51 |
| ministerdude | I ditched FF for opera and I'm loving it more | 09:51 |
| ministerdude | FF is a piece and has been since 3.4 | 09:51 |
| jll | glebihan, I'm using 10.10 and I'm downloading firefox 5 right now to see if I can install it. | 09:52 |
| glebihan | jll, ok | 09:52 |
| ministerdude | I also need a new media player. banshee, and rhythmbox suck | 09:52 |
| jll | oh no, it's not installing!! I'll have to manually install it and I have no clue as to how. | 09:53 |
| ministerdude | Sorry to the chat for being so negative. This system is just driving me insane | 09:54 |
| vooze | Is there a terminal command to delete all files inside a folder, but not the folder ? | 09:54 |
| jll | isn't there a file that I can right click and opening it package installer or something to make this easier? if not I'm stuck. | 09:54 |
| glebihan | jll, what do you mean by "it's not installing" ? what error do you get ? | 09:54 |
| mang0 | why don't you open the folder, ctrl a, then delete? vooze | 09:55 |
| _DX | rm *.* or something? | 09:55 |
| vooze | mang0, its my ubuntu server, so i only have ssh access | 09:55 |
| glebihan | jll, you should be able to open the deb file with the package manager | 09:55 |
| jll | glebihan, I just downloaded the newest firefox and it's a firefox-5.0.1.tar.bz2 | 09:55 |
| mang0 | vooze: ah....can you not delte the folder then recreate it? | 09:55 |
| glebihan | vooze, rm /path/to/folder/* | 09:55 |
| vooze | glebihan, ah thanks :) | 09:56 |
| glebihan | jll, oh you should have downloaded the deb file not the tar.bz2 | 09:56 |
| vooze | mang0, i could but its been created by a program (sickbeard) so it have all the right permissions already | 09:56 |
| jimcooncat | do we have a command line tool to generate a random password? | 09:56 |
| crackerjackz | ministerdude, audacious is similiar to winamp.. have you tried that? | 09:56 |
| mang0 | vooze: try what glebihan said | 09:57 |
| kaellan | .bz2 dosnt work to install ? | 09:57 |
| szal | crackerjackz: strictly speaking, not any more, since the Winamp skins are not supported any longer | 09:57 |
| glebihan | jll, oh there doesn't seem to be a deb package for firefox 5 | 09:57 |
| wims | that unity thingie .... does anyone have an idea if it works in other distros as well? | 09:57 |

| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: sorry to take so long... yes, I'm pretty sure the nVidia driver is the problem... I remember it as being difficult to remove, though & am looking for some dox on the subject | 10:00 |
| crackerjackz | Chipzzz, it's okay, i appreciate you taking the time to help me | 10:01 |
| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: do you have jockey installed (the proprietary manager)? | 10:01 |

| crackerjackz | Chipzzz, i'm not sure.. i installed the invidia driver by going to - system > administration > additional drivers | 10:02 |
| jll | <glebihan> it's doing something. thanks, I closed firefox and I'm hoping it will work. | 10:02 |
| anti_system | it say that cant find the file / tftp error | 10:03 |
| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: that's jockey... take a look at that and see if it will uninstall the drivers for you | 10:03 |
| === `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
| glebihan | jll, should work fine, let me know if you have any issue though | 10:03 |
| Chipzzz | (I think it only does the install but I could be wrong) | 10:03 |
| jll | hey thanks man | 10:04 |
| crackerjackz | Chipzzz, it says this driver is currently activated but not in use.. then it has a button that says remove | 10:04 |
| * crackerjackz clicks remove | 10:04 | |
| glebihan | jll, you're welcome | 10:04 |
| mang0 | Hm...Ubuntu seems to be using up LOADS of CPU...any ideas why? I'm only running xchat and firefox (2 tabs) and everything is still reaaally laggy | 10:04 |
| anti_system | someone use ltsp in edubuntu? | 10:05 |
| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: outstanding!!! remove it and the headers problem should be easily solved | 10:05 |
| kaellan | is ubuntuzilla package manager safe to use ? | 10:05 |

| glebihan | mang0, use "top" to see what is using the resources | 10:05 |
| kaellan | (same packages in it) | 10:05 |
| StevenR | anti_system: sounds like you've not got your tftp server configured right, or some files are in the wrong place | 10:05 |
| anddam | hello | 10:06 |
| crackerjackz | Chipzzz, it looks like it's just kind of hanging there | 10:06 |
| mang0 | glebihan: top? | 10:06 |
| crackerjackz | never mind there it goes.. it moved | 10:06 |
| bl4ckcomb` | mang0, $ man top | 10:06 |
| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: :) | 10:06 |
| anddam | can anyone confirm that on a default Ubuntu 11 install the key to access grub menu at boot is actually shift? | 10:06 |
| crackerjackz | Chipzzz, it says SystemError: installArchives() failed | 10:06 |
| mang0 | okay | 10:07 |
| anti_system | stevenr if you install ubuntu the image you get | 10:07 |
| anti_system | it's very easy to use | 10:07 |
| anddam | I got black screen until I release shift key | 10:07 |
| anti_system | and i'm not a linux beginnet | 10:07 |
| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: I thought it might be too good to be true | 10:07 |
| anti_system | beginnet | 10:07 |
| anti_system | beginner* | 10:07 |
| StevenR | anti_system: so... what's the problem then? | 10:08 |
| jll | <glebihan> Firefox still closed out with an error and it's wanting me to tell mozilla about it. | 10:08 |
| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: you usually have to reboot after installing/uninstalling those drivers so it may have removed them despite what it said | 10:08 |
| mang0 | bl4ckcomb_: so. much. info. overload. ARGH!!! | 10:08 |
| glebihan | jll, could you paste the link to the page when the problem occurs ? | 10:09 |
| bl4ckcomb` | mang0, you requested it | 10:09 |
| mang0 | glebihan: If I type man top I get a manual...for top, but no info.... | 10:09 |
| jll | it's pogo.com, loading the game I want to play | 10:09 |
| glebihan | mang0, just type "top", "man top" shows the manual page for "top" | 10:10 |
| bl4ckcomb` | mang0, man == manual, just do $ top | 10:10 |
| bl4ckcomb` | *facepalm* | 10:10 |
| Chipzzz | crackerjackz: when you reboot, if the GUI isn't working you can always run the failsafe video so don't be nervous | 10:10 |
| Chipzzz | (it's in the grub menu) | 10:10 |
| mang0 | Yes I know, I'm wondering why ubuntu is eating up CPU. I was told to type in man top, so I did, and now I've got a manual :P I'm not sure how to get to the list hehe | 10:10 |
| mang0 | oh | 10:10 |
| mang0 | aha | 10:11 |
| mang0 | I'm such a fool | 10:11 |
| bl4ckcomb` | mang0, you were told to type man top so you know what top was, since you asked 'top?' | 10:11 |
| Chipzzz | mang0: type top or better yet, install htop and run that | 10:11 |
| szal | Chipzzz++ | 10:11 |

| ubottu | kukamunga: 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/ | 11:11 |
| glebihan | crackerjackz, btw what was your original issue (haven't been following from the beginning) ? | 11:11 |
| crackerjackz | !xampp | 11:11 |
| ubottu | We do not support XAMPP installs here. Please use the LAMP stack that is in our repositories; see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP for more information. | 11:11 |
| pietr101 | Sidewinder: any console way? | 11:11 |
| kukamunga | mang0: google prartition recovery tool, or windows vista/7 recovery cd (is easy, cos is with GraphicUserInterafce) | 11:11 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, its a long story but i first discovered the problem when mysql was buggering out | 11:12 |
| mang0 | kukamunga: it's windows xp | 11:12 |
| mang0 | Actually, I've got a recovery CD, I'll try it out | 11:12 |

| Chandon | My ubuntu 11.04 install likes to get in a state where the window manager completely ignores mouse events. I'm not sure what causes it, but it seems to happen consistently if I surf the web for a while. Restarting Unity or doing "metacity --replace" works for about one click. Any ideas? | 11:14 |
| glebihan | crackerjackz, what's the error message and what command brings it ? | 11:15 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, http://pastebin.com/qLj4ZtxL | 11:16 |
| glebihan | crackerjackz, you should run "sudo apt-get install -f" | 11:17 |
| Sidewinder1 | pietr101, I'm sure there is a console command but, alas, I don't know what it is, sorry. :-( | 11:17 |
| * Tomoka doesn't want to repeat his question D: | 11:17 | |
| Sidewinder1 | pietr101, Perhaps fschk?... | 11:18 |
| pietr101 | the disk is in raid | 11:19 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, it errored out http://pastebin.com/LEMcqfvr | 11:19 |
| pietr101 | and it look like a hardware fault | 11:19 |
| Sidewinder1 | pietr101, Sorry, it's fsck...Type in "man fsck" without quotes to see a manual on fsck. | 11:19 |
| milen8204 | hello I have tried to install MS access whit wine, but my try was unsuccessful. Now I have home Ms office files which I can remove any one can give me an idea where I can delete them? | 11:20 |
| glebihan | crackerjackz, ok let's try "sudo apt-get purge mysql-server && sudo apt-get install mysql-server" | 11:20 |
| Sidewinder1 | pietr101, Don't know much about raid, either; ahain, sorry. | 11:20 |
| Sidewinder1 | again, even. | 11:20 |
| pietr101 | Sidewinder1: ok :D | 11:21 |
| Flynsarmy | I typed 'uptime' and it says '6 users'. I'm the only user on this laptop - shoudl I be concerned? | 11:22 |
| Sidewinder1 | pietr101, fsck might work with raid but I'm not sure; check the manual, it's pretty powerful. | 11:22 |
| Tomoka | Flynsarmy, type who in the console, there you can see who is logged in the terminal (I think?) they use | 11:23 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, it errored out :/ http://pastebin.com/1HefVTw2 | 11:23 |
| oCean | Flynsarmy: no, open a new terminal, and run uptime again, you'll have 7 users | 11:23 |
| Flynsarmy | oCean: oh cool - why is that exactly? | 11:24 |
| * Sidewinder1 Would like to know that, too. | 11:24 | |
| oCean | Flynsarmy: as Tomoka pointed out, run 'who' or 'w' in a terminal (no quotes) - it's just your sessions | 11:24 |
| glebihan | crackerjackz, try "sudo dpkg --purge mysql-server" then "sudo apt-get install -f" | 11:24 |
| Tomoka | every terminal opens a new session thus you login again, I think | 11:24 |
| Flynsarmy | thanks Tomoka, oCean | 11:25 |

| cyber638 | can anyone answer my question ====> how to write dns record of yahoo.com in bind 9 | 11:33 |

| glebihan | crackerjackz, could you check the value of the "bind-address" parameter in the file "/etc/mysql/my.cnf" ? | 11:38 |
| szal | and driver, for that matter | 11:38 |
| === MIAUMIAUMIAU is now known as MerdamOgonkiem | ||
| Tomoka | hm, I don't know specificaly what card but a intel gma atleast | 11:38 |

| cyber638 | is there anyone who can help me with bind9??? | 11:39 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, no such file exist | 11:40 |
| szal | Tomoka: hmm, good luck with the many shortcomings of Intel graphics ;) | 11:40 |
| glebihan | crackerjackz, wow, and the error message with "sudo apt-get install -f" is still the same ? | 11:40 |
| introiboad | hi there! tried googling this but didn't help, it's really simple but no luck so far: old CRT monitor with intel 82845G/GL, all I want is to be able to switch to a different screen res, I am stuck on a really high one. Tried cvt/xrandr but no luck, any easy way to add resolutions? (monitor unknown and it's a mitsubishi Diamon Pro over VGA). Thanks! | 11:41 |
| Tomoka | szal, as long as it can do some stuff I'm fine with it, it all worked perfect last night tho | 11:41 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, yup | 11:41 |
| Sidewinder1 | cyber638, Perhaps you'll find some info here: http://ubuntuforums.org/search.php?searchid=82034813 | 11:42 |
| glebihan | crackerjackz, ok then try "sudo apt-get purge mysql-server-core-5.1 && sudo apt-get install -f" | 11:42 |
| cyber638 | Sidewinder1 thx but I looked there too..... they have explaing about bind9 but all these are making me confuse only.... I need someone to tell me how to write dns records of yahoo.com in bind9 and then I will do the same for other websites.... | 11:43 |
| oCean | crackerjackz: you're still running around in circles with the packages? | 11:44 |
| Sidewinder1 | cyber638, No problem; I wish I could help more... | 11:44 |
| cyber638 | hmm.. | 11:44 |
| Tomoka | cyber638, maybe you could try it with a web interface like webmin or something? | 11:45 |
| oCean | cyber638: maybe try #ubuntu-server channel, there is server specific help | 11:45 |
| Sidewinder1 | !webmin | 11:45 |
| ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 11:45 |
| crackerjackz | oCean, indeed | 11:46 |
| cyber638 | ok Ocean | 11:46 |
| SpecialEmily | my cousin bought a netbook with ubuntu on it recently, and she can't recall the password set on it, so I can't sudo... any suggestions? | 11:46 |
| oCean | crackerjackz: maybe still some partially configured packages? Run dpkg -l | grep ^rc | cut -d' ' -f3 to list | 11:46 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, the command seems to have been successful | 11:46 |
| introiboad | SpecialEmily: you could try single user mode, google it | 11:46 |

| j-r | join #bash | 11:47 |
| SpecialEmily | wrek-gar, we don't know the root password though :s | 11:47 |
| oCean | glebihan: crackerjackz I advise to list partially configured packages first | 11:47 |
| Sidewinder1 | j -r you need the "/" to join. | 11:48 |
| glebihan | !password | SpecialEmily | 11:48 |
| ubottu | SpecialEmily: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 11:48 |
| crackerjackz | oCean, it says cut: option requires an argument 'd' | 11:48 |
| oCean | crackerjackz: this is the complete command: dpkg -l | grep ^rc | cut -d' ' -f3 | 11:48 |
| glebihan | oCean, crackerjackz there are no more partially installed packages | 11:48 |
| mang0 | hrm. The menu control next to the clock at the top of my moniter is missing, how do I get it back? | 11:48 |
| introiboad | SpecialEmily: http://www.debuntu.org/recover-root-password-single-user-mode-and-grub | 11:48 |
| oCean | glebihan: never hurts to (double)check, he has been running in circles with this issue(s) longer | 11:49 |
| introiboad | SpecialEmily: I do believe that in single user mode you can change the root password without knowing the current one | 11:49 |
| crackerjackz | oCean, here is the output of the command you gave me http://pastebin.com/5ke1E9Sy | 11:49 |
| Jemt | I just added ppa:mactel-support/ppa, but I can't seem to find the multitouch driver after doing 'apt-get update' - any suggestions? | 11:49 |
| oCean | crackerjackz: ok, you nothing mysql related, but if you wish, you can purge those out too, by running dpkg -l | grep ^rc | cut -d' ' -f3 | xargs sudo dpkg -P | 11:50 |
| introiboad | Is there a Ubuntu sanctioned way, now that xorg.conf is gone in natty, to manually add a monitor type and its supported resolutions? TiA! | 11:51 |
| Tomoka | if I logout my X session, X gets restarted right? | 11:51 |
| introiboad | Tomoka: yes | 11:51 |
| Tomoka | okay, thanks | 11:51 |

| razz1 | how to connect to IRC server after issuing a "/quit" command? | 11:55 |
| f3bruary | razz1: perhaps /join | 11:55 |
| SpecialEmily | glebihan, if I could bother you for one second, which password exactly is related to the "login keyring"? .__. | 11:55 |
| Tomoka | razz1 : /server <server hostname/ip> | 11:56 |
| SpecialEmily | I get the message "Enter passord to unlock your login keyring" | 11:56 |
| mang0 | f3bruary: I believe so, I'll double check. | 11:56 |
| SpecialEmily | and I'm a little confused as to which password this is exactly | 11:56 |
| glebihan | SpecialEmily, this is the user's password | 11:56 |
| === xindzz`off is now known as xindz | ||
| mang0 | razz1: what client? | 11:56 |
| razz1 | mang0: pidgin | 11:56 |
| SpecialEmily | glebihan, that was my thought but I just changed the users password and its not accepting it | 11:57 |
| mang0 | And why would you do /quit if you wanted to use IRC? | 11:57 |
| introiboad | SpecialEmily: unless you're like me and leave password unencrypted by leaving the password empty the first time you want to access the keyring | 11:57 |
| SpecialEmily | do I have to restart or flush privs after doing that? | 11:57 |
| mang0 | razz1: you can just do /quit, then /connect I believe. If not just restart Pidgin heh | 11:57 |
| trisqueldotim | hi there.. | 11:57 |
| razz1 | mang0: new to this stuff, instead of "/part" I used "/quit", I need to connect to freenode | 11:57 |

| SpecialEmily | apt-get update is god-awfully slow for some reason | 12:02 |

| glebihan | crackerjackz, could you create the "/etc/mysql/my.cnf" file and put the line "skip-innodb" in it, then retry the installation ? | 12:25 |
| trisqueldotim | wow you must all have huge brains or something (sic)!!!!!!!!!!!! | 12:25 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, how do i do that? | 12:25 |

| glebihan | crackerjackz, yes you try that | 12:26 |
| ikonia | abckb__: I asked you where you put the module once you had built it | 12:27 |
| abckb__ | ikonia: i ran make , make install. | 12:27 |
| abckb__ | not sure where the modules were put | 12:28 |
| ikonia | abckb__: then it is very probable you will not be able to "roll back" | 12:28 |
| abckb__ | ikonia: oh ok :( | 12:29 |
| abckb__ | ikonia: have to reinstall? :( | 12:29 |

| KatronixSerf | morning all, anyone here know where I can get assistance via IRC for x11vnc? | 12:31 |
| ikonia | KatronixSerf: just state the problem and we'll either help or suggest where you can get help | 12:31 |
| abckb__ | ikonia: how to do that? reinstall means i have to uninstall kernel first, right? am i allowed to do that? | 12:31 |
| anti_system | yes | 12:31 |
| ikonia | abckb__: not if you're using the kernel, no you can't | 12:32 |
| ikonia | abckb__: is there anything on your system you wan't to keep, or that has taken you a long time to setup ? | 12:32 |
| KatronixSerf | my x11vnc, says "The VNC desktop is: localhost:0 | 12:33 |
| KatronixSerf | PORT=5900 | 12:33 |
| KatronixSerf | " which according to what I read is supposed to be somewhat correct. My question is, since it says localhost as opposed to the machine's name, is it only accepting connections from the machine itself? | 12:33 |
| FloodBot1 | KatronixSerf: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 12:33 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, okay done | 12:33 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, what do i do after that try to install lamp again? | 12:33 |
| ikonia | KatronixSerf: it means it's running on the local display | 12:33 |
| abckb__ | ikonia: yes i have a lot of docs and others which i can't loose | 12:33 |
| glebihan | crackerjackz, yes | 12:33 |
| ikonia | abckb__: are they backed up ? | 12:33 |
| abckb__ | ikonia: yes in an external hdd | 12:34 |
| KatronixSerf | ikonia, ok, so if I'm trying to connect via another computer is probably what I don't want? | 12:34 |
| abckb__ | but backing up and restoring take huge amount of time :( | 12:34 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, i think it worked.. but i'm not positive | 12:35 |

| glebihan | crackerjackz, what do you mean ? did you still get error messages ? | 12:35 |
| ikonia | abckb__: ok, you may want consider just doing a clean install, as if you don't know what you're doing you're probably going to end up wrecking your machine | 12:35 |
| mang0 | What dock should I use? | 12:36 |
| mang0 | :) | 12:36 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, http://pastebin.com/chLGFZYr | 12:36 |

| abckb__ | ikonia: so you recommend reinstall and restoring important files? | 12:36 |
| mang0 | ikonia: I don't know which one ;__; | 12:36 |
| KatronixSerf | ikonia, I'm curious because my vnc client software says it can't make the connection | 12:36 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, so i guess its fixed now, aye? | 12:36 |
| glebihan | crackerjackz, looks good to me | 12:36 |
| ikonia | abckb__: you may find that simpler | 12:37 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, thank you very much, you have been very helpful :) | 12:37 |

| webczat | Or it usually does not? | 12:47 |
| Sidewinder1 | webczat, Personally, I don't care for wubi; it's meant to TRY ubuntu, not as a long term situation. To answer your question, it's not *supposed* to mess up anything in win. | 12:48 |

| nicolas_ | anyone know how to fix permissions on an external ntfs drive through fstab? | 13:08 |
| crackerjackz | glebihan, i had the same problem prior to removing it.. and i even followed a guide to reset the password. even after resetting the password it still said i had the wrong root password | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis | anli__: i would think you would install the proper Pulse Audio tools to do that sort of thing.. but ive rarely seen it done. | 13:08 |
| anli__ | Should be a system menu entry for every window where a sound card could be picked | 13:09 |
| anli__ | Would be cool | 13:09 |
| henry_ | I can connect it as a media player but then the files won't show up :S | 13:09 |
| Traintop | anli__: exactly what pulseaudio does... :-) | 13:10 |
| anli__ | But a disadvantage with pulseaudio is that you can turn it off | 13:10 |
| Dr_Willis | anli__: the pulse audio suff lets you select stuff sort of like that. I can make pc#1 play its audio through pc#2's speakers.. if i wanted to. | 13:10 |
| anli__ | And pulseaudio does not put a system menu entry on all my windows, does it? | 13:10 |
| glebihan | crackerjackz, try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.1", this should allow you to reset the password once again and see if it works | 13:10 |
| Dr_Willis | or other tricks. | 13:10 |
| anli__ | aha | 13:10 |
| Dr_Willis | You need to use the PA tools... | 13:10 |

| Dr_Willis | flexd: you hit the key that changes soundtracks? :) or menu item? ive seen where the 2 default to differnt tracks in a few cases | 13:11 |
| anli__ | I dont understand the beaty with remote sound | 13:11 |

| alexleon | does someone know why when i dont use my laptop it turns off and when i move the mouse i can see thr arrow only nd i can move it | 13:20 |
| crackerjackz | Dr_Willis, just out of curiosity is there a paramater you can add with the purge command to tell it to delete all config files? | 13:20 |
| crackerjackz | with the apt-get purge* | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | crackerjackz: purge does remove system config files... i | 13:21 |

| oCean | sanity: jaunty is end of life | 14:10 |
| Ampelbein | tzhuang: so you have somewhere in /etc/apt/ this ppa still defined and should remove it. | 14:10 |

| tzhuang | Ampelbein: hmm well what i did was try to search my sources.list for atareo | 14:11 |
| Ampelbein | tzhuang: it's probably in /etc/apt/sources.list.d | 14:11 |
| vibhav | tzhuang, ignore it then | 14:11 |
| vibhav | nicofs - instead of that , decrease brightness | 14:12 |

| schwach | yeah so if anyone is running KVM on 10.04.2 - try the snapshot for KVM.. mine no workie and I cant see anywhere where it was removed.. | 14:16 |

| UltraParadigm | I'm having an issue where my mouse clicks don't register after I minimize applications. And They won't register untill I close whatever minimized program has stolen focus. | 14:20 |

| edbian | sanity: Try to upgrade to 9.10 does it let you do that? | 14:24 |

I have two partitions on my machine: One 286.95 GB with Ubuntu on /dev/sda1 (ext4), and an extended 11.14 GB partition (/dev/sda2) with linux-swap (/dev/sda5) in it. /dev/sda1 still has 106.96 GB free. Can I use that free space to create a third partiton for another OS? | 14:31 |
| daGrevis | edbian, it failed. | 14:31 |
| edbian | nicofs: xubuntu is lighter and works better on older hardware | 14:31 |
| oCean | !postfix | mmncs ok, that would require a much more complicated setup. | 14:31 |
| ubottu | mmncs ok, that would require a much more complicated setup.: postfix is the default !MTA and !MDA on Ubuntu. For help, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto - See also !MailServer | 14:31 |
| edbian | daGrevis: What did? | 14:31 |
| sanity | edbian: it references the other link - which doesn't work | 14:31 |
| daGrevis | edbian, to install that driver for 64bits. now i gonna install 32 bits os. | 14:31 |
| edbian | Habstinat: Yes, shrink that partition and create a new empty one in the unused space. | 14:31 |
| nicofs | edbian, i don't see why 1,6GHz should be too much to run 2 displays... | 14:32 |
| edbian | sanity: Ummm so it does! | 14:32 |
| mmncs | oCean, I know and I want to see if I can avoid that since it is only two mail accounts | 14:32 |
| user_leo | alguien que hable espa;ol | 14:32 |
| edbian | nicofs: It's likely you video card that's the problem | 14:32 |
| oCean | !es | user_leo | 14:32 |
| ubottu | user_leo: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 14:32 |
| edbian | daGrevis: yeah do that | 14:32 |
| Habstinat | edbian: How would I go about doing this in the gParted application? | 14:32 |
| daGrevis | edbian, why do they recomend 32 bits? | 14:32 |
| oCean | mmncs: the receiving part is more complicated, so you have to configure a complete setup. | 14:32 |
| oCean | mmncs: also, the #ubuntu-server channel is for specific server help | 14:32 |
| edbian | Habstinat: Boot a liveCD. unmount everything, the gparted lets you shrink stuff (yes use gparted) | 14:33 |
| nicofs | edbian, but why does ubuntu these days have to be based on all those useless graphical gimmicks without any option to deactivate them? | 14:33 |
| edbian | daGrevis: They wrote the driver, ask them. | 14:33 |
| mmncs | oCean, I have done a setup of postfix and its a bit of a drag and afterwards my server started to crash "out of memory" | 14:33 |
| edbian | nicofs: You can deactivate them. log out, click your name, choose session -> ubuntu classic (no effects), then log in. | 14:34 |
| nicofs | edbian, hang on... | 14:34 |
| edbian | nicofs: sure | 14:35 |
| Lixxus | quick question guys | 14:35 |
| mmncs | oCean, I was wondering if there was some cheap mailhosting instead so I didn't have to bother with postfix for this kind of setup | 14:35 |
| Lixxus | im a novice linux user, and i want to try a lamp distro | 14:35 |
| edbian | Habstinat: Of course remember you can only have 4 primary partitions (that's the point of the extended partition) | 14:35 |
| TuxBrother | someone here expierince with bind9? | 14:35 |
| Lixxus | is ubuntu server relatively easy to setup | 14:35 |
| daGrevis | edbian, no, i thought: wht do Ubuntu recomends 32 bits over 64 bits? | 14:35 |
| mmncs | Lixxus, depends on what you wanna setup | 14:35 |
| vlt | !anyone | TuxBrother | 14:36 |
| ubottu | TuxBrother: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 14:36 |
| edbian | daGrevis: Because 64 bits is not mature yet and problems like yours arise still. | 14:36 |
| Lixxus | mmncs : lamp | 14:36 |
| mmncs | thats easy | 14:36 |
| mmncs | apt-get install lamp^ | 14:36 |

| TuxBrother | simple question: I created a forward zone. domain.name.local to the Windows AD Server, let's say 192.168.1.2 | 14:36 |
| Habstinat | edbian: I'm not 100% sure I get it. Do you have a link to a tutorial or documentation or something along those lines for my situation? | 14:37 |
| daGrevis | mmncs, what mean that ´^´? | 14:37 |
| jrib | Lixxus: you just mark a checkbox during install saying you want LAMP, that's it | 14:37 |
| edbian | Habstinat: I'll just tell you. PM me please? | 14:37 |
| mmncs | Lixxus, apt-get install lamp^ | 14:37 |
| nicofs | edbian, thanks, now everything is working just fine... | 14:37 |
| oCean | TuxBrother: you might try in #ubuntu-server (for specific server help) | 14:37 |
| mmncs | daGrevis, thats just the command for easy lamp setup | 14:37 |
| TuxBrother | well, when I do a lookup to the domain domain.name.local @ the bind9-dns, 192.168.1.3, I get server fail | 14:37 |
| TuxBrother | okay | 14:37 |
| Lixxus | ok jrib | 14:37 |
| Lixxus | and a mail server option as well | 14:37 |
| edbian | nicofs: awesome! :D | 14:38 |

| Chhheap | kurisu, I was just thinking if u had some sort of plugin. :D | 15:01 |
| Chhheap | kurisu, Maybe something in the plugins settings causes it? | 15:01 |
| oCean | kaushal632: there is ##networking, but that is not ubuntu specific. And then there is #ubuntu-server (where you have been before) | 15:01 |

| CyborgSmurf | I still cant get root access, help anyone? | 15:13 |
| TheFuzzball | chewy AFAIK there needs to be a plugin built to accommodate the service, but XBMC does have a browser IIRC. | 15:14 |
| TheFuzzball | CyborgSmurf Forgot your password? | 15:14 |
| Psydoll | can someone please explain what is aptitude? in the easiest way possible? | 15:14 |
| TheFuzzball | Psydoll It's a package manager, you can install applications with it. | 15:14 |
| Psydoll | TheFuzzball: how then does it differ from the software center? | 15:15 |
| chewy | TheFuzzball, thanks. i d like to know which plugin... cause the web browser built in just makes xbmc crash when launched... i d like to add a web address and be able to watch it... | 15:15 |
| TheFuzzball | Psydoll It doesn't the software centre will use it as a backend. | 15:15 |
| CyborgSmurf | TheFuzzball: no I have got it. But I try to run with Alt-F2 to make use of gksudo, but even so the program says I am not permitted. | 15:15 |
| TheFuzzball | chewy Google it, some things just don't have plugins sadly | 15:15 |
| Psydoll | TheFuzzball: so the softwatre center is the gui version and aptitude the command line way of installing software? | 15:16 |
| TheFuzzball | CyborgSmurf try sudo <appname> | 15:16 |
| TheFuzzball | Psydoll Yep, although you'd really use apt-get to install stuff in the command line. | 15:16 |
| CyborgSmurf | TheFuzzball: But then I will need to type it in terminal, its chromium browser I want access to | 15:17 |
| HackNewton | hi all | 15:17 |
| BluesKaj | chewy, best to ask in the #xbmc chat | 15:18 |
| TheFuzzball | CyborgSmurf Just try it to troubleshoot, to establish if the problem is with gksu or your use account. | 15:18 |
| chewy | BluesKaj, good point. i m googling neway | 15:18 |
| CyborgSmurf | TheFuzzball: okay, but I have used scanmem before, but then typed sudo -i to get root and it worked perfectly... | 15:19 |
| BluesKaj | chewy, I tried xbmc for a while and the ppl at #xbmc were very helpful | 15:19 |
| chewy | ok | 15:19 |
| lcb | hi. how can i have this command line _in the application launcher, as a menu item_ to avoid a full terminal window to open in order to write the password, i mean, what's the option to add in the 'run in terminal text box): sudo java -jar /home/lcb/_APPS_/some_application/application.jar | 15:20 |
| TheFuzzball | CyborgSmurf Try the same application that you're having a problem with, just in case. | 15:20 |
| CyborgSmurf | TheFuzzball: how do I run chromium with sudo command? | 15:21 |
| llutz | lcb: 1st: why does a java-app need root? 2nd: use gksudo/gksu not sudo | 15:21 |
| === raven is now known as Guest22086 | ||
| TheFuzzball | CyborgSmurf sudo chromium-browser I think, just tab to complete the command name if it's wrong | 15:21 |
| TheFuzzball | lcb put it in a shell script. | 15:21 |

| Psydoll | is nano a good text editor? | 16:54 |
| szrfph | Ampelbein: Only thing I can see that may be of use is: SCPlugin-ifupdown: device added (path: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.5/0000:03:00.0/net/eth0, iface: eth0): no ifupdown configuration found. Having checked /etc/network/interfaces, there's no eth0 interface there. | 16:54 |

| TheFuzzball | Psydoll Nope :) | 16:54 |
| mang0 | Is there a way to permanatly hide the unity dock thing on the left? | 16:55 |
| Phr3d13 | Psydoll, i like the default (gedit) | 16:55 |
| mang0 | not auto hide, but perma hide | 16:55 |
| cyperbg | also is it true that ext2 is to be used for booting Ubuntu from USB flash drive? | 16:55 |
| zykotick9 | Psydoll, a "good" text editor is one you like to use ;) | 16:55 |

| dastim | :( | 16:55 |
| Derp__ | Is anyone familiar with hash cracking? | 16:55 |
| Phr3d13 | mang0, log out and click on your name, look at the bottom of the screen, select gnome classic | 16:55 |

| TheFuzzball | Psydoll Nano is easy to use, but I prefer Vim. | 16:55 |
| Derp__ | Well it is kind of ubuntu related. | 16:56 |
| mang0 | Phr3d13: I want the other parts of unity, just not that dock thing | 16:56 |
| Psydoll | TheFuzzball: thanks im just getting used to it, will try out nano before vim | 16:56 |
| Psydoll | trying to use it for bash scripts | 16:56 |
| Ampelbein | szrfph: is eth0 listed in /proc/net/dev ? | 16:56 |
| Phr3d13 | mang0, like the new scroll bars and such? | 16:56 |
| mang0 | yeah, and also the apps bar at the top, I like that, but I dont want that thing on the side | 16:56 |
| szrfph | Yep it is Ampelbein | 16:56 |
| TheFuzzball | Phr3d13 The new scrollbars aren't Unity | 16:57 |
| === mkhan_ is now known as mkhan | ||
| zykotick9 | Psydoll, ubuntu comes with vim-tiny by default, be sure to install the real "vim" package before giving vi a shot ;) just a hint. | 16:57 |
| Dr_Willis | and the top menu bar. is not really unity either. :) | 16:57 |
| ActionParsnip | dastim: ok, run: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf change the resolutions in the screen section | 16:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Theres global-menus package if you just want that top menu bnar. | 16:57 |
| Ampelbein | szrfph: ok, if you try 'sudo dhclient eth0', do you get a ip from your dhcp-server? | 16:57 |
| mang0 | Dr_Willis: Iḿ taking a screenshot of what I mean, bear with me | 16:57 |
| szrfph | Ampelbein: Yes, I do. | 16:58 |
| dude_ | quit | 16:58 |
| szrfph | Ampelbein: any ideas why dhclient wasn't being called/the network device wasn't automatically getting an IP address? | 16:58 |

| Phr3d13 | Anyone know how to get a vt6410 (pci raid/ide card) working in ubuntu 11.04? | 16:59 |
| Ampelbein | szrfph: what did you use to configure the network? are you on ubuntu with gnome/unity and use the NetworkManager? | 16:59 |
| mang0 | Dr_Willis, Phr3d13: http://imagebin.org/163473 I want to keep that but get rid of the thing on the left | 17:00 |
| dastim | ActionParsnip It works now <3<3 thank you, i can change resolution in the nvidia control panel now | 17:00 |
| szrfph | Ampelbein: I'm on ubuntu with gnome and I never used the network manager to configure the network as it just worked out of the box, apart from half an hour ago, when it just stopped. | 17:01 |
| Phr3d13 | mang0, i don't think you can | 17:02 |
| mang0 | aww, youŕe kidding! | 17:02 |
| Ampelbein | szrfph: you could check the configuration if there is a wired connection set to auto. | 17:02 |
| zykotick9 | szrfph, (from the if you haven't tried already department) have you tried booting back into windows and using whatever tool there to enable your wireless, then booting back into ubuntu | 17:02 |
| clean | hi, friends, I am still using 9.10(karmic), and I can't get any security updates now, but I don't want to upgrade because I a afraid to detroy the whole system or any anoying problems to solve after automatic upgrade, can I upgrade it just by install a newer kernel or other methods ? thanks:p | 17:03 |
| Ampelbein | zykotick9: the connection works, manually using dhclient gets him an ip, so that isn't the problem. | 17:03 |
| ActionParsnip | dashua: sweet :) basically your monitor sucks and isnt reporting what it can do to your system, you have had to manually tell your system how to act | 17:03 |
| szrfph | Ampelbein: I actually tried adding a wired connection to see if it'd work, there wasn't a 'wired connection' there at all. | 17:04 |
| zykotick9 | Ampelbein, thanks. szrfph disregard me ;) | 17:04 |
| szrfph | Hehe, cheers zykotick9 | 17:04 |
| Phr3d13 | clean, there's 3 methods 1) sudo do-release-upgrade 2) from the update manager 3) from a livecd, should give you an upgrade my os option | 17:04 |

| jameslord | so many rubbish msg | 17:07 |
| jameslord | jesus | 17:07 |
| zykotick9 | Phr3d13, i'm not sure option 3) from a livecd, is valid? can livecd's do upgrades? they can't be used as repositories for upgrades, you need alternate for that. clean | 17:07 |

| zykotick9 | !eol > Phr3d13 this also applies for 9.10 i think | 17:08 |

| TheFuzzball | wrek-gar I haven't configured IMAP before, so I'm not going to be much help here, sorry. | 17:10 |
| gyyrog | Is anyone in here from the UK? | 17:10 |

| jameslord | no, i mean the rubish msg in chatting room | 17:10 |
| xangua | Asif: write their names, tab for autocomplete | 17:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Asif: type their name at the start, you can use TAB to autocomplete :) | 17:10 |
| Phr3d13 | jameslord, what chat client? | 17:10 |
| wrek-gar | TheFuzzball: k | 17:10 |
| qin | jameslord: What client? | 17:10 |
| Ampelbein | szrfph: hmm, if you disable networking and reenable it in network-manager, can you paste the /var/log/syslog output? | 17:10 |
| zykotick9 | clean, good luck with that. personally fresh install would be my recommendation. | 17:10 |
| jameslord | pidgin | 17:10 |
| qin | jameslord: /help | 17:10 |
| jameslord | xchat have the same problem | 17:10 |
| clean | zykotick9: my last failure was caused by not enough disk space | 17:11 |
| Asif | ActionParsnip, ok i got it | 17:11 |
| ActionParsnip | jameslord: there is a plugin in pidgini. have the main window as active and select tool -> plugins | 17:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Asif: np man :) | 17:11 |
| clean | zykotick9: but i think fresh install require too much work after installation | 17:11 |
| qin | jameslord: xchat and irssi have /ignore so you can filter channel how you like. /j #xchat | 17:11 |
| zykotick9 | clean, if you're already out of disk space - upgrading to a new version will not help, and will probably fail?! | 17:11 |
| TheFuzzball | gyyrog Yeah | 17:11 |
| szrfph | Ampelbein: by network-manager, I'm assuming you mean the network connections app in System > Preferences? | 17:11 |
| Asif | ActionParsnip, thank you this can be done with any irc client...??? | 17:12 |
| HackerII | jameslord also, on the #ubuntu right click it for more settings | 17:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Asif: the tab completion, yeah its pretty standard | 17:12 |
| TehAndrew | [19:08] <TehAndrew> how comes my fps i minecraft has dropped from about 150-180 fps to 40-50 fps? and i haven't changed anything | 17:12 |
| clean | zykotick9: I know, I mean that the last time I tried to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10, it failed because disk space | 17:12 |
| Ampelbein | szrfph: yeah | 17:12 |
| clean | zykotick9: fresh install can lost many nice tools I have installed and configured | 17:13 |
| zykotick9 | clean, honestly, i wish you luck and hope it works out. i don't think upgrading from version to version in ubuntu is a particularly wise idea, but YMMV. | 17:13 |
| ActionParsnip | jameslord: its join/part hiding. If you read the list, you'd see it | 17:13 |
| clean | zykotick9: yes, I also thinks it no that safe to upgrade from one version to anther | 17:13 |
| TehAndrew | hello? | 17:14 |
| szrfph | Ampelbein: there's no option for me to enable/disable networking in the network connections manager | 17:14 |

| clean | 6 month a version is too fast and frequent, upgrade and upgrade ... | 17:14 |
| Mark-Potter | Penis | 17:15 |
| Mark-Potter | clean: Then don't upgrade, buy a new computer | 17:15 |
| wrek-gar | TheFuzzball: is there a way to find the path to dovecot-imapd? no clue as to where it is | 17:15 |
| Mark-Potter | Use the search program | 17:15 |
| zykotick9 | clean, three letters for ya L T S ;) | 17:15 |
| jameslord | wow, computer is cheap in these days | 17:15 |
| Ampelbein | szrfph: oh, right, you have to use the applet in the are left from the clokc | 17:15 |

| Phr3d13 | TehAndrew, just ask your question | 17:16 |
| ActionParsnip | jameslord: as I said, join/part hiding is the name | 17:16 |
| HackerII | mark, supwithat | 17:16 |
| zykotick9 | clean, don't bother! the packages you want: X, desktop apps, etc are only supported 3 years - same as Desktop! | 17:16 |

| jameslord | it does not filter the system msg | 17:17 |
| ActionParsnip | tim: you can use alltray to put apps inn the system tray or you can use the thunderbird tray addon | 17:17 |
| zykotick9 | clean, some real "server" packages are supported for 5 years yes, but much of the repository is NOT | 17:17 |
| Ampelbein | szrfph: you are on 11.04? 'sudo apt-get install indicator-network' should do | 17:18 |
| Phr3d13 | tim, system > Preferences > Preferred Applications | 17:18 |

| jameslord | i can ignore somebody's msg | 17:18 |
| szrfph | Ampelbein: I'm running ubuntu 10.04 LTS | 17:18 |
| jameslord | but i cannot ignore the system's , why? | 17:18 |
| clean | szrfph: you can still have 2 years support ? | 17:19 |
| clean | LTS may be my best choice | 17:19 |
| zykotick9 | clean, ubuntu's lts desktop is probably the longest supported "desktop" version - that you don't have to RH for ;) | 17:19 |
| xangua | tim there are addons to integrate thunderbird to the message menu | 17:19 |
| tim | Phr3d13 i set thunderbird my preferred email program, but when i click on the email icon on the top of the desk it loads evo | 17:19 |
| xangua | indicator | 17:19 |
| Ampelbein | szrfph: oh, then right-clcik on the panel, see if indicator-applet and 'notification area' are there | 17:20 |

| mang0 | ActionParsnip: I´ve downloaded the stuff, but it wont install.... | 17:30 |
| ActionParsnip | mang0: just install the deb file from the dropbox site and it willd it's thing | 17:30 |
| Ampelbein | szrfph: though I don't know how that can happen. If you enable it there and reboot all should be fine. | 17:31 |
| mang0 | ActionParsnip: the deb isn't working ;__; I'll try again though | 17:31 |
| ActionParsnip | mang0: what is the output of: uname -m; lsb-release -d | 17:31 |

| segunda_hora | hello, I was wondering if remote desktop can be configured to allow remote authorization, ie. no user at the remote box (which I own) | 17:39 |

| dli | thezanke, I use a launcher for pavucontrol | 17:48 |
| tensorpudding | plazia: probably not | 17:48 |

| Dazzled | dli: always (the last few times I tried) | 18:02 |
| tensorpudding | raju: does ctrl+alt+f1 do anything | 18:03 |
| Dazzled | dli, I get nothing of text, no boot screen | 18:03 |
| dli | Dazzled, not due to overheating? | 18:03 |
| Dazzled | dli, I secretly hope it's that, but it never did that before | 18:03 |
| bleedingmonk | Dr_Willis, man i know for sure you would have a Virtual Machine running on Unity... what do you do with the unity title bar when VM goes fullscreen | 18:03 |
| terxx | dli: hou old is de machine | 18:04 |
| raju | tensorpudding: do you wanna make me check now | 18:04 |
| dli | Dazzled, unplug power, takeout battery, leave it to cool down | 18:04 |
| Dazzled | dli, ah, k, will go do that | 18:04 |
| Dazzled | dli, thanks | 18:04 |
| tensorpudding | raju: i guess you have to wait for the problem to manifest itself | 18:04 |
| plazia | Why is it in 11.04 the terminal/console resolution now is so low It used to be like 1024x768 but now it seems like 640x480 as the writing is massive. | 18:04 |
| Mark-Potter | Sorry about earlier | 18:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Dazzled: whe the battery is out, hold the power button a while | 18:04 |
| tensorpudding | raju: i have random annoying problems with 11.04, and have filed multiple bugs against it, including something which seems like a hard lock, but ctrl+alt+f1 works | 18:05 |
| Mark-Potter | My bad, I should not have made such outrageous remarks | 18:05 |
| dli | plazia, can you do run xrandr in terminal? | 18:05 |
| terxx | dli: maybe you gave to undust the laptop | 18:05 |
| cyperbg | guys, are SATA drives equally compatible with Ubuntu as IDE? | 18:05 |
| raju | tensorpudding: yeah at the third hanging i placed let it be for some time but it didnt | 18:05 |
| tensorpudding | raju: if it works, i then log in and do a 'sudo service gdm restart', and it restarts the gnome session | 18:05 |
| ActionParsnip | cyperbg: technically both are IDE | 18:05 |
| user | tensorpudding: Why don't you use aptosid? | 18:05 |
| plazia | dli, I don't mean terminals in x I mean like the linux console/terminal when you press like ctrl+alt+f1 | 18:06 |
| ActionParsnip | cyperbg: as long as the controller is detected ok, the connected drive will work | 18:06 |
| cyperbg | ActionParsnip, what do you mean by that? | 18:06 |
| ActionParsnip | cyperbg: IDE is the Integrated Drive Electronic | 18:06 |
| Dazzled | ActionParsnip, ah ok, will go do that | 18:06 |
| ActionParsnip | cyperbg: if you look at both IDE and SATA drives, they BOTH have IDEs | 18:06 |
| tensorpudding | user: i don't know what aptosid is, and i don't think it's what i want | 18:06 |
| raju | tensorpudding: ok amn , if hanged again then i will try this , tell me how to file a bug | 18:06 |
| user | tensorpudding: debian unstable packaged and with some custom scripts | 18:07 |
| Dazzled | The machine made a small drop (less than the height of a finger) when I removed my headset cable from under it | 18:07 |
| pietr101 | hey, can you recommend any good cheap sata 2 port multiplier, that fully works with linux? | 18:07 |
| Dazzled | then the screen froze | 18:07 |
| tensorpudding | user: that sounds like totally not what i want | 18:07 |
| Dazzled | and when I rebooted it, it did that | 18:07 |
| Dazzled | only when I turned it around, I saw the battery was dislodged | 18:07 |
| ActionParsnip | cyperbg: old drives used to rely purely on the controller for intelligence. Then new drives got an added IDE with cache and abilities, this made them a tonne faster, the IDE analogy just stuck but when people say IDE, they really mean PATA | 18:07 |
| ronqbc | what do you think about that? http://paste.ubuntu.com/645952/ | 18:07 |
| Dazzled | clicked it back in, but no change yet | 18:07 |
| ActionParsnip | cyperbg: Parallel ATA, then ewer drives using Serial bus (SATA) were made | 18:08 |
| tensorpudding | raju: you have to create an account on launchpad | 18:08 |
| Dazzled | now off to hold the power button | 18:08 |

| cyperbg | ActionParsnip oh yes PATA then :) | 18:08 |

| raju | tensorpudding: thank you | 18:08 |
| ActionParsnip | cyperbg: ;) yes it will work provided the controller on the motherboard etc is picked up (should be fine) | 18:08 |
| tensorpudding | user: debian unstable is "rolling release" in a sense, which is not what i want | 18:08 |
| cyperbg | ActionParsnip do you think this is just a myth: destroying a flash drive when using ext4? | 18:08 |
| tensorpudding | user: it won't have unity, which i like | 18:09 |

| tensorpudding | user: it won't support ubuntu packages, which would mean i'd lose the flexibility of PPAs | 18:09 |
| user | tensorpudding: PPAs? And unity isn't any fun | 18:09 |

| centHOGG | makes u appreciate reiserfs a bit | 18:10 |
| tensorpudding | it's essentially running your own repository, but you get the benefits of launchpad | 18:10 |
| Infernet | hey all | 18:10 |
| cyperbg | ActionParsnip, that is my dillemma: either use a flash drive with ext2 or SATA hard disk | 18:10 |
| tensorpudding | you can host them there, host the projects there | 18:11 |
| tensorpudding | other lp users can see your packages, and search for them | 18:11 |
| dli | cyperbg, btrfs is designed with SSD/flash in consideration, but btrfs is not stable enough yet | 18:11 |
| tensorpudding | anyway, i disagree on unity | 18:11 |
| ActionParsnip | cyperbg: depends how much space you need and how much cash you have | 18:11 |
| Arm0ur | Um, In Openbox, how do you set a single window as undecorated ? | 18:12 |
| Dr_Willis | ive yet to trash a usb flash drive with ext3 but i guess it all depends on how much you use it. | 18:12 |
| tensorpudding | using debian would restrict my choices | 18:12 |
| segunda_hora | tensor: brace for newb question, where do I find the IP to put in 'ssh -v <IP>' | 18:12 |
| Arm0ur | I need a single window of my choice to be undecorated | 18:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Arm0ur: compiz can do that | 18:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Arm0ur: check the openbox docs.. it may not be possible. | 18:12 |
| tensorpudding | segunda_hora: what are you trying to do? | 18:12 |
| primeras | hi my english isn't very well. i have one rar files (php files in there). php files will not come out rar file | 18:12 |
| segunda_hora | tensor: I just installed openssh-server, now I want to try connecting over that but I'm thinking "localhost" isn't the answer | 18:12 |
| cyperbg | ActionParsnip: the machine will be a dedicated mining rig for Bitcoins, so working 24/7. I like the flash drive, as the case is custom built wooden frame, so it more convenient with the usb drive | 18:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Arm0ur: if you use openbox then you should be able to right click the app and select remove decoration | 18:12 |
| dli | primeras, can open it file-roller (or unrar) | 18:13 |
| tensorpudding | segunda_hora: is your local ip address a private area address? | 18:13 |
| Arm0ur | ActionParsn : I don't want to use Compiz, though I'm running cairo-compmgr | 18:13 |
| tensorpudding | segunda_hora: you can use hostnames, that's much easier | 18:13 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 759627 in unity (Ubuntu) "unity overlaps virtualbox on fullscreen" [Low,Confirmed] | 18:13 |
| ronqbc | what do you think about that? http://paste.ubuntu.com/645952/ | 18:13 |
| tensorpudding | segunda_hora: generally, the way to determine a publically-routable IP address is to use a service like www.whatismyip.com/ | 18:14 |
| dli | Dazzled, depend on temperature difference, I will wait for half an hour or longer | 18:14 |
| tensorpudding | segunda_hora: if you're behind a router providing a local area network, it gives you an address in the 192.168.1.X or 10.10.X.X or similar range | 18:15 |
| tensorpudding | segunda_hora: the router itself is assigned an IP address by your ISP, which is shared for all machines connected to it using Network Address Translation (NAT) | 18:15 |
| primeras | dli, unrar don't work | 18:15 |
| dli | segunda_hora, to find out: do something like: sudo ip address list | 18:15 |
| ministerdude | Help please | 18:16 |
| user | tensorpudding: But I've been using aptosid for a little while, I am in luuuuuv | 18:16 |
| tensorpudding | segunda_hora: localhost is a synonym for 127.0.0.1, which always refers to the local machine | 18:16 |
| terxx | segunda_hora: -v = verbose and the ip is probaly the ip of the machine you want "ssh" to | 18:16 |
| dli | primeras, please try to avoid vague comments like 'doesn't work', it helps to provide detailed and specific info, like the exact error messages | 18:17 |
| ActionParsnip | cyperbg: could put the working folder in a ram drive to reduce writes on the drive | 18:17 |
| Dazzled | tensorpudding, would a 'whatsmyip' service not always return the routable address? | 18:18 |
| centHOGG | is that easily done? | 18:18 |
| Dr_Willis | primeras: whats the exact command you used? | 18:18 |

| tensorpudding | Dazzled: yes, it would | 18:18 |
| cyperbg | ActionParsnip can you direct me to a guide of how to do that? | 18:19 |
| Dr_Willis | primeras: try extracting it with the rar nonfree binary, if 'unrar' failed. | 18:19 |
| centHOGG | yeah I'd like to see that myself | 18:19 |
| bleedingmonk | Dr_Willis, | 18:20 |

| tensorpudding | unless the network that you're server machine is on has a dns domain that the client is aware of, you'll have to use ip address | 18:26 |
| tensorpudding | but if there's NAT involved, you'll need to do port forwarding on the server end | 18:26 |

| Taffflash | i dont understand lol | 19:47 |
| dli | plouffe, rsync -avxAH | 19:47 |
| dli | plouffe, after that, chroot on the new computer, fix /etc/fstab, run grub-install and update-grub | 19:48 |
| isteve___ | Tafafflash : the latest version is 11.04 , though 11.10 is about to be release in oct AND is in development period so dont install that | 19:48 |
| BernardV | Taffflash: If you just installed this version and it's not the latest version (check with the command rww gave) I would reinstall with the latest instead of upgrading. Not that it's not going to work, but imo it leaves some data you don't need. | 19:48 |
| dli | plouffe, pay attention to your /boot (partition or folder in / ?) | 19:48 |

| Taffflash | i did install it from cd I found on my cd pile that i downloaded ages ago | 19:50 |
| Taffflash | im new to all this lol | 19:50 |
| Jordan_U | john_rambo: Or for already installed packages "dpkg -S /path/to/file". | 19:50 |
| Taffflash | and what to know if i got the latest version before i start installing stuff? | 19:50 |
| KM0201 | Taffflash: opena terminal (application/accessories/terminal) and type "lsb_release -a" no quotes, and hit enter.. make sure there's a space after release | 19:50 |
| Taffflash | Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS | 19:51 |
| KM0201 | Taffflash: ok, thats the current long term support, you can either upgrade 10.04 to 10.10, then upgrade 10.10 to 11.04, or clean install 11.04 (thats what i would do) | 19:51 |
| KM0201 | if you want the current version | 19:52 |
| BernardV | Ah.. Not the latest, but also not the worst you could have.. it's the LTS (Long Time Support) version. | 19:52 |
| Taffflash | I will clean install 11.04 | 19:52 |

| RenatoSilva | Dr_Willis: from the wiki: "backports will not receive review or updates from the Ubuntu security team itself". This means I rely on bugs going to upstream then back to backport maintainers to get it fixed? Got the doubt? | 21:14 |

| Ts_ | hello, I recently upgraded from 1004 to 1010 and lost the use of my dvdrom. | 21:25 |
| RenatoSilva | how to know where certain package is in the official repos? Because I have a newer version, so synaptic reports it as local | 21:26 |
| Taffflash | guys can you help me find my cd drive as i cant find it on this os? | 21:26 |
| Taffflash | im trying for the last hour to make a usb stick so i can install a new version of ubuntu but its crashing all the time | 21:27 |
| Dr_Willis | normally the cd is /dev/sr0 and a link from /dev/cdrom points to it. | 21:28 |
| Taffflash | also i not got a blank cd so can i burn it to dvd? if so the version of ubuntu im running now isnt finding my dvd drive...any tips please? | 21:28 |
| Dr_Willis | I dont get what you are saying Taffflash... You are on a live cd? or what exactly? | 21:29 |
| Taffflash | i got ubuntu in stalled now but want to upgrade it to the new one | 21:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Taffflash: you wish to upgrade from teh cd, not via downloading packages? | 21:29 |
| [THC]AcidRain | Taffflash: i have bad experience upgrading from download packages | 21:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Taffflash: only the alternative cd can work as a repo for upgradeing... not the desktop cd. | 21:30 |
| Taffflash | all i want to do is install new verstion | 21:30 |
| Taffflash | how can i do it please? | 21:30 |
| [THC]AcidRain | ubuntu.com | 21:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Taffflash: 'install' would imply booting the cd.. and running the installer.. thats not the same as 'upgradeing' | 21:30 |
| wildbat | is there is tools that can transprently bidirectionally sync two folders.? | 21:31 |
| [THC]AcidRain | http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download | 21:31 |
| Taffflash | ok i just installed ubuntu today from cd i was old it is a old version | 21:31 |
| Dr_Willis | wildbat: most likely some of the 'fuse' tools can do that. | 21:31 |
| dli | wildbat, like unison ? | 21:31 |
| Taffflash | how do i get to new? | 21:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Taffflash: and what version was it? | 21:31 |
| Taffflash | 10. something | 21:31 |
| [THC]AcidRain | 11.11 is the newest version | 21:31 |
| RenatoSilva | Dr_Willis: the local package name is emerald_0.8.8-0ubuntu0~malteworld1_i386.deb | 21:31 |
| Dr_Willis | 10.X is not that old... | 21:31 |
| [THC]AcidRain | i personally prefer 9.04 | 21:32 |
| Taffflash | ok so how can i get new version? | 21:32 |
| Dr_Willis | 11.04 is the latest 'stable' release. | 21:32 |
| [THC]AcidRain | Dr_Willis: true | 21:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Taffflash: download the latest cd/iso and reinstall.. would be the best way. | 21:32 |
| wildbat | dli: kind of be i need something more seamlessly, | 21:32 |
| Taffflash | i cant coz i not got a blank cd puls i cant from usb stick as it is crashing | 21:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Taffflash: since doing a upgrade. would basically download everything again.. you dont save a lot by upgrading a freshly done install. | 21:32 |
| Taffflash | any other way? | 21:32 |
| tertl3 | Taffflash, netboot | 21:33 |
| tertl3 | Taffflash, are you wired to internet? | 21:33 |
| wildbat | Dr_Willis: you happened to know which fuse package can do that ? | 21:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Taffflash: do a upgrade to the next releae.. or not worry about it for now. | 21:33 |
| Dr_Willis | wildbat: nope. the fuse homepage has a list of several dozen filesystems that can do all sorts of tricks. | 21:33 |
| Taffflash | im on ubuntu now on this chan | 21:33 |
| [THC]AcidRain | Taffflash: yeah id do what Dr_Willis is suggesting, easiest way | 21:33 |
| [THC]AcidRain | id probably burn one until you can find a cd to write to | 21:34 |
| Taffflash | ok how do i upgrade? | 21:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Taffflash: so what version exactly are you using? 10.04 ? | 21:34 |
| Dr_Willis | !upgrade | Taffflash | 21:34 |

| Dr_Willis | Taffflash: untill you can track down a blank cd or 2. or manage to make a usb that works. | 21:37 |

| solidus-nitrogen | i hate having to enter my password like 8x while i've already logged in, how do I change it so i don't need to verify i'm me after i logged in | 21:58 |
| Dr_Willis | solidus-nitrogen: depends on whats verifying.... | 21:59 |
| solidus-nitrogen | it asks me when i sign onto aim, when i go to download a package, and whenever the screen locks | 21:59 |
| Dr_Willis | each of those have their own way to negate the need for a password. | 21:59 |
| Dr_Willis | screenlock - is a check box you disable somewhere.. | 21:59 |
| solidus-nitrogen | ones an issue with the wallet, ones an issue with the sleep screen | 21:59 |
| solidus-nitrogen | yeah I'm not sure about the wallet though, maybe theres an option in my chat client | 22:00 |
| Dr_Willis | as for the keyring thing. I just let it use 'unsafe storage' so it auto unlocks on login | 22:00 |
| solidus-nitrogen | in kde theres a system wide way to disable the use of the wallet though | 22:00 |
| solidus-nitrogen | Dr_Willis: where is that? | 22:00 |
| Dr_Willis | but thats gnome.. kde proberly has a similer thing | 22:00 |
| solidus-nitrogen | i'm in gnome | 22:00 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: then all passwords are unecrypted on the drive the keyring is storing | 22:00 |
| Dr_Willis | when you first set the gnome keyring, just use a blank password. | 22:00 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: yep. thus the use of the term 'unsafe storage' :) | 22:00 |
| Dr_Willis | solidus-nitrogen: run 'seahorse' and you can reset your keyring password via the right click menus. | 22:01 |
| iceroot | solidus-nitrogen: if you set keyring to the same password as the userpassword and DONT choose autologin, the keyring is opened automaticly without typing the password again | 22:01 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: i seem to recall that using the same password for the keyring as login.. did not work that way for me. | 22:02 |
| solidus-nitrogen | cool, thanks! i'll experiment | 22:03 |
| Dr_Willis | because i always set the keyring touse the same password as login. in the past. not tried it lately | 22:03 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: on keyring (gnome) or kwallet? on gnome-keyring it was working for me (then i choose encrpyted /) :) | 22:03 |

| spacebug- | Guest96931: sudo reinstall gdm | 22:20 |
| spacebug- | sorry wrong | 22:20 |
| Guest96931 | spacebug thank you | 22:20 |
| spacebug- | Guest96931: sudo apt-get install gdm | 22:20 |
| kibibyte | kiwi_, you must ask ubuntu developers, if they are not in school now | 22:20 |
| audifahrer | iceroot: me too, but many people are forced if one uses a OS specific word (e.g. Linux in the question) :-P | 22:21 |
| iceroot | audifahrer: then dont use the word, c++ is not os-specific | 22:22 |
| edbian | kiwi_: I can help. Boot a liveCD and reinstall grub | 22:23 |
| edbian | kiwi_: You upgraded from what release to what? 10.04 ? | 22:23 |
| kibibyte | kiwi_, see, edbian is back from school now | 22:23 |
| Qcho | hi | 22:24 |
| edbian | Not a developer | 22:24 |
| edbian | but thanks :) | 22:24 |
| edbian | Qcho: hello | 22:24 |
| Qcho | hi | 22:24 |
| kiwi_ | edbian, no upgrade ... simple update ... | 22:24 |

| albech | can anyone recommend a good IPsec client for Ubuntu to connect to Juniper SRX devices? | 22:24 |
| edbian | However I am a student! | 22:24 |
| szal | kibibyte: in most parts of the world it's still Sunday, so no school | 22:24 |
| edbian | kiwi_: mmm, anywho. Boot that liveCD! :D liveUSB if you have one. | 22:24 |

| kiwi_ | edbian, i cant get the livecd right now. i guess thats the only solution you can offer, right? | 22:25 |
| edbian | kiwi_: well can you type stuff at your grub_ prompt? Or is it frozen?? | 22:26 |
| kibibyte | kiwi_, you can write to ubuntu about crap they made | 22:26 |
| kiwi_ | frozen | 22:26 |
| edbian | kiwi_: Then I can't help my friend. | 22:27 |
| kiwi_ | edbian, its a dual boot system. is there a way to write 'grub,img' from windows? | 22:28 |
| kiwi_ | grub.img | 22:28 |
| kiwi_ | the 512 byte boot sequence, you know? | 22:29 |
| edbian | kiwi_: You can install the ext4 driver for windows and edit /etc/default/grub and such. I don't think there is a way to write grub into the MBR from windows | 22:29 |
| edbian | kiwi_: the 512 bytes boot sequence is commonly referred to as the mbr. You can read and write it in linux using dd!!!! | 22:29 |
| szal | kiwi_: dd exists for windows | 22:29 |
| poseidon | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Qj8p-PEwbI&feature=related <---- is that real? | 22:30 |
| kiwi_ | edbian, right i want to do the dd on windows | 22:30 |
| edbian | kiwi_: Talk to szal | 22:30 |
| kiwi_ | ok thanks | 22:30 |
| poseidon | That's really bad publicity. Does that really not come with the drivers installed? | 22:30 |
| szal | poseidon: most probably off-topic | 22:30 |
| edbian | kiwi_: writing the MBR using dd is going to be more the trivial. I think a liveCD will be much much easier. | 22:30 |
| poseidon | szal: about ubuntu | 22:30 |
| kiwi_ | szal, whats the equivalent to the 'dd ..... of=grub.img' on windows? i have a ext3 driver on windows. | 22:31 |
| rww | poseidon: That's two years old and not a technical support question. Go ask #ubuntu-offtopic, like the five other people who oddly brought it up this week did. | 22:32 |
| szal | kiwi_: http://www.chrysocome.net/dd | 22:32 |
| kiwi_ | ok | 22:32 |
| kiwi_ | that might work, thanks | 22:33 |

| aj00200 | I have an askward question. I have a keyring containing some important passwords but I forgot the last few characters. Is there a way to brute-force them? I'll write the code myself if someone can tell me how to unlock keyrings cli style. | 22:45 |
| YankDownUnder | aj00200, That might be a tough one, however, you CAN just delete the "keyrings" and start fresh. | 22:45 |
| rww | "containing some important passwords" | 22:46 |
| iceroot | aj00200: how many last characters you dont know? | 22:46 |
| aj00200 | YankDownUnder: I need the important passwords first so that is not an option | 22:46 |
| aj00200 | iceroot: 4 | 22:46 |
| iceroot | aj00200: that should be possible with bruteforce | 22:46 |
| iceroot | aj00200: have a look at "apt-cache search bruteforce" for a cli-based program which is sending passwords on stdout which you can send to the cli-version of keyring | 22:47 |
| Kazilla | i don't understand why you are brute forcing when you can just reset the passwords | 22:47 |
| Lasers | Kazilla: "containing some important passwords" | 22:47 |

| antivirtel | hello all, I have a PowerCom UPS(USB: 0d9f:0004), I'm looking for a software from upgradeable source (repo, or PPA). - I found http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=upsd - but there is that it is for "serial interface" - is it suitable for my USB interface, or I have to install the software from the distuber's CD' | 23:05 |
| brandon_ | Hi, I had a question about increasing the size of my Ubuntu installation | 23:05 |
| antivirtel | ? | 23:05 |
| Neoncamouflage | You mean your partition? | 23:05 |
| jimubao | iceroot, jimubao 4992 2.7 4.4 789572 137664 ? Sl 09:40 2:20 /usr/lib/firefox-5.0/firefox-bin http://articles.slicehost.com/apache | 23:05 |

| brandon_ | Well, I'm not really sure what terms to use. Basically I installed Ubuntu using the Windows installer | 23:05 |
| iceroot | jimubao: that is ok, its not apache running | 23:05 |
| brandon_ | The "partition" is 130GB | 23:05 |
| brandon_ | but I need it to be larger | 23:06 |
| Neoncamouflage | brandon_, You can boot off of an Ubuntu LiveCD and use GParted to increase your partition size, so long as your HD has more room for it. | 23:06 |
| Neoncamouflage | What I did with mine | 23:06 |
| jimubao | i just start it | 23:06 |
| jimubao | and still showing forbidden on the browser | 23:07 |
| jimubao | @@ | 23:07 |
| brandon_ | Yes, my HD has ~1TB free, so I know I have the space. So I have to boot off of a LiveCD in order to increase the partition size? | 23:07 |
| iceroot | Neoncamouflage: he is using wubi | 23:07 |
| iceroot | brandon_: no | 23:07 |
| Neoncamouflage | missed that XD | 23:07 |
| iceroot | brandon_: with wubi you dont use gparted | 23:07 |

| jimubao | is it possible to set public_html on an ntfs volume ?..... | 23:08 |

| iceroot | jimubao: chmod -R 750 public_html; chown -R jimubao:www-data public_html | 23:24 |
| wildbat | iceroot: that;s ntfs ~ he need to change mount options | 23:25 |
| iceroot | jimubao: after that YOU can read and write every file in public_html, apache can read every file in there but cant write a file | 23:25 |
| jimubao | iceroot: after chmod -R 750 the folder still drwx------ 1 jimubao jimubao 424 2011-07-18 10:13 public_html | 23:26 |
| iceroot | wildbat: ah yes you are right | 23:26 |
| ctmjr | BDR, here you go make sure you have the dependencies also, then just copy them to the computer without the internet http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/flex | 23:26 |
| exutux | cannot use unix permission on NTFS fs | 23:26 |
| iceroot | exutux: i thought only posix-acls are not possible with ntfs | 23:27 |
| jimubao | iceroot: i have tried chmod it so that is why i was wondering is it possible to set public_html on another volume | 23:27 |
| === RtFM is now known as Guest75720 | ||
| jimubao | iceroot: it seens like i cant chmod the folder in that volume, it is a ntfs volume that i mounted ~ | 23:27 |
| === Guest75720 is now known as psywiped | ||
| BDR | ctmjr: does it matter which architecture I use? | 23:28 |
| === JimmyJ_ is now known as JimmyJ | ||
| ctmjr | BDR, yes | 23:28 |
| wildbat | jimubao: mainly coz ntfs is not native to linux ~ it don't support chmod/chown. you have to remount it with different mount option or use bindfs | 23:29 |
| BDR | ctmjr: ok, how do i know which architecture I want? | 23:29 |
| jimubao | the reason i wanna put public_html file on this volume is that so i can access it in both windows and linux | 23:29 |
| Byan | trying to install ati binary drivers. | 23:30 |
| Byan | fglrx depends on libc6-i386; however: | 23:30 |
| JohnMnemonic | Who can help me with SpiderMonkey C library instalation? | 23:30 |
| Byan | Package libc6-i386 is not installed. | 23:30 |
| jimubao | wildbat: so is not possible to have apache files on ntfs volume then ? | 23:30 |
| jimubao | .... | 23:30 |
| Byan | why do I need 32bit libc for 64bit linux? | 23:30 |
| ctmjr | BDR, what did you install on the computer 64 or 32 bit | 23:30 |
| wildbat | jimubao: it is possible ~ you just have to give it the right mount options | 23:31 |
| BDR | ctmjr: ..there was not AIR a bit selection for the natty download. | 23:31 |
| JohnMnemonic | Byan when U want to use 32b apps on 64 u need that ; ) | 23:31 |
| jimubao | wildbat: how do u do that ? what do u mean by right mount option ? | 23:31 |
| wildbat | !NTFS-3g | jimubao | 23:32 |
| ubottu | jimubao: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 23:32 |
| BDR | ctmjr: It was probably 32 bit | 23:32 |
| Byan | hrm, apt-get -f install fixed everything.. nevermind | 23:32 |
| wildbat | jimubao: mount it so that www-data can read the ntfs | 23:33 |
| === com64th is now known as com64 | ||
| BDR | ctmjr: how might i check to make sure? | 23:34 |
| jimubao | wildbat: i using 11.04 | 23:34 |
| ctmjr | BDR, yes more than likely uname -r will give you an idea if you see amd64 then it is just that | 23:34 |
| jimubao | i was able to use desktop gui to create folder or files | 23:35 |
| jimubao | wildbat: i though ntfs-3g is preloaded on installiation | 23:35 |
| jimubao | ~ | 23:35 |
| wildbat | jimubao: and you use gnome gvfs to mount it ~ that y group www-data can read that drive. | 23:36 |
| jimubao | wildbat: so i need root mount ? | 23:36 |
| JohnMnemonic | how to earn cloak? | 23:37 |
| JohnMnemonic | how to get to bed and sleep till morning? | 23:38 |
| wildbat | you need to mount it like | 23:39 |
| wildbat | <your partition> /media/<mount point> ntfs-3g uid=1000,gid=33,umask=007,dmask=007,fmask=007,defaults,user,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0 | 23:39 |
| aguitel | anyway to enable splash in boot process ? | 23:39 |
| jimubao | wildbat: ??? | 23:40 |
| yagoo | aguitel, see bootoptions wiki in ubuntu | 23:40 |
| yagoo | !bootoptions | 23:40 |
| ubottu | For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions See also !nomodeset. | 23:40 |
| JohnMnemonic | aguitel, 1 second splash? | 23:40 |
| aguitel | JohnMnemonic, yes | 23:40 |
| jimubao | in terminal ? | 23:40 |
| tintin011 | Am inprest | 23:41 |
| yagoo | !nomodeset | 23:41 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 23:41 |
| yagoo | aguitel, ^ | 23:41 |
| wildbat | jimubao: ok ~ "sudo umount /media/Files" | 23:42 |
| JohnMnemonic | good night | 23:42 |
| aguitel | yagoo, i have nvidia card running nvidia-173 driver | 23:42 |
| jimubao | wildbat: ok done | 23:43 |
| jimubao | so i mount it again with that command ? | 23:43 |
| byroncoughlin | aquitel what version of ubuntu are you running? | 23:43 |
| BDR | ctmjr: 2.6.38.8 -generic is all I get from uname -r | 23:43 |
| aguitel | byroncoughlin, kubuntu 11.04 | 23:44 |
| wildbat | jimubao: sudo mkdir /media/Files; sudo mount.ntfs -o uid=1000,gid=33,umask=007,dmask=007,fmask=007,defaults,user,locale=en_US.utf8 /dev/sdx# /media/Files | 23:44 |
| ctmjr | BDR, then it is not a 64bit kernel | 23:44 |
| wildbat | jimubao: where the sdx# is the ntfs dev you trying to mount | 23:45 |
| iceroot | is there a way to have / encrypted with a passphrase but be able to type in the password with ssh or something else over the network? | 23:45 |
| BDR | ctmjr: yay | 23:45 |
| BDR | ctmjr: so i386 then? | 23:45 |
| MattQC | Oh hello | 23:46 |
| nightrid3r | iceroot how are you going to run ssh when / is still encrypted | 23:46 |
| ctmjr | BDR, yes | 23:46 |
| MattQC | Can somebody please possibly help me with some power management settings? | 23:46 |
| iceroot | nightrid3r: maybe with pxe, a live-session or something else | 23:46 |
| yagoo | MattQC, you dictator? | 23:47 |
| MattQC | Sorry? | 23:47 |
| yagoo | MattQC, I protest | 23:47 |
| iceroot | nightrid3r: or maybe grub has somehting like that to connect to a running tty1 | 23:47 |
| nightrid3r | iceroot i see no reason to encrypt / , /home i can understand cos there is your data | 23:47 |
| MattQC | Please explain how I offended? | 23:48 |
| MattQC | What would be the correct way to go about asking for technical assistance? | 23:48 |
| yagoo | !ask | 23:48 |
| ubottu | 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. :-) | 23:48 |
| MattQC | My apologies | 23:48 |
| byroncoughlin | MattQC What is the question you want regarding power settings? | 23:48 |
| MattQC | Well, first, on the chat now, how is it again that a username appears in red, in direct conversation? | 23:49 |
| iceroot | nightrid3r: without an encrpyted / you can run a live-cd and e.g. modifiy /etc/shadow | 23:49 |
| iceroot | nightrid3r: also /swap is on / | 23:49 |
| yagoo | iceroot, / is used for the system. That's like asking to send email when there's no electricity.. use common sense | 23:50 |
| send | ? | 23:50 |
| cheshirelad31 | hi room | 23:50 |
| yagoo | iceroot, if / is not available.. nothing is available... | 23:50 |
| cheshirelad31 | anyone uk here | 23:51 |
| MattQC | I'm trying to enable runtime PM for pci devices -- it's a PowerTop suggestion. | 23:51 |
| yagoo | iceroot, you sure you're using a swapfile and not a swappartition ? | 23:51 |
| iceroot | yagoo: as i said, maybe there is something like pxe or a grub-function to attach to tty1 | 23:51 |
| === send is now known as Logan_ | ||
| iceroot | yagoo: yes swapfile created on / | 23:51 |
| yagoo | iceroot, I think 2-3 people in here wonder if you're trolling | 23:51 |
| nightrid3r | yagoo or more :) | 23:51 |
| aguitel | yagoo, solved ,thanks | 23:52 |
| iceroot | yagoo: my question is if it is possible to attach to tty1 over lan from grub/pxe if it is trolling for you then i guess i dont need your support | 23:52 |
| yagoo | aguitel, so the bootoptions fixed it? | 23:52 |
| aguitel | yagoo, yes | 23:52 |
| iceroot | yagoo: e.g. on /var/lib/xen there are my vms, so it doesnt make sence to encrypt only /home | 23:53 |
| yagoo | iceroot, wrong channel.. you want #kvm | 23:53 |
| iceroot | yagoo: on /etc/mysql/my.secret there is my mysql-root-password, on /etc/ldap/ldap.secret there is the ldap-secret for the admin | 23:53 |
| antivirtel | hi! I have an UPS connected via USB. I fount it in lsusb; how can I find the right path in /dev? | 23:54 |
| yagoo | antivirtel, lsusb -v maybe | 23:54 |
| iceroot | yagoo: private ssh and so on, so of course there is a reason to encrypt / | 23:54 |
| nightrid3r | iceroot if i can steal your disks no encryptio nwill protect your data in the long run | 23:55 |
| iceroot | nightrid3r: you mean the very very very long run about many many years? | 23:55 |
| worstadmin | nightrid3r, Actually it would help | 23:55 |
| nightrid3r | iceroot its just not possible to start any service from an encrypted system without the key | 23:55 |
| iceroot | nightrid3r: as i said 3 times, maybe there is something like pxe or a grub-function to connect to tty1 (busy box) to enter the password | 23:56 |
| iceroot | nightrid3r: that is my initial question here | 23:56 |
| minus_ | Hi! I started recording a video from my webcam with mencoder. I accidentaly turned it off with ctrl-z instead of ctrl-c. This resulted in mencoder not "unloading?" the webcam. So the webcam is now stuck and mencoder says that its busy. | 23:58 |
| minus_ | I tried to rmmod the driver. But it reported that it was in use. | 23:59 |
| minus_ | Is there a way to undo this without a reboot? | 23:59 |
| yagoo | minus_, type "fg" | 23:59 |
| yagoo | minus_, ctl-z suspended process in background | 23:59 |
| yagoo | fg unsuspends last suspended program.. and attempts to resume | 23:59 |
| minus_ | yagoo, <3 | 23:59 |
| minus_ | It worked :D | 23:59 |
