| Corey | !sound | 00:02 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 00:02 |

| jen | and nothing for the other hold on | 00:03 |
| Benkinooby | jen the first two pages were enough to solve my sound problems | 00:04 |
| jen | I have tried all of those! | 00:04 |
| Benkinooby | jen ok | 00:04 |
| RenatoSilva | Corey: so what's the difference? | 00:04 |

| RenatoSilva | anyone else rather than Corey knows what's the diff between "duplex analog stereo" and "stereo analog output" in hardware tab of sound preferences? | 00:05 |
| Corey | RenatoSilva: I have no idea what you're going on about; I wanted to check something I was working on here so I called for the !sound factoid. | 00:05 |
| jen | http://paste.ubuntu.com/647733/ | 00:05 |
| Jeruvy | RenatoSilva: duplex means 'both ways simultaneously', so you have both input and output (mic and speakers) | 00:05 |
| RenatoSilva | Corey: you sounded like a developer actually about to assign the bug to yourself and work on it. Cool. | 00:06 |
| jen | and idk nothernen | 00:06 |
| RenatoSilva | Corey: then sorry about all | 00:06 |
| jen: sudo chmod 755 /dev/dsp* | 00:06 | |
| Northernen | jen, did you install it through Ubuntu software center? | 00:06 |
| HackerII | jen hes asking what you installed for the sound to break | 00:06 |

| Electron | Ubuntu 11.04 just randomly disconnects me from my wi-fi router. Its annoying. The reason I know its not my router is because my windows computer stays online as does my playstation 3. What the heck is happening? | 00:07 |

| RenatoSilva | Jeruvy: so no much difference, just that if I say in the mic jack, I hear in the line out jack, that's it? | 00:07 |
| jen plz | 00:08 | |
| Northernen | jen, yes. | 00:08 |
| Jeruvy | RenatoSilva: pretty much | 00:08 |
| jen it shows what u have installed | 00:08 | |

| HackerII | RenaKunisaki huh, maybe it is a bug, i'm lost on that 1, sry | 00:13 |
| Northernen | aikInsaan, 'less' will open a new screen where one can navigate back and forth through the pages. 'more' will give you one page at a time, and stop at the end. | 00:13 |
| jen: sudo gpasswd -a audio jen | 00:13 | |
| Jeruvy | RenatoSilva: It could be an issue with 'jack', did you search launchpad for that? | 00:13 |

| jen | ok im back | 00:16 |
| KM0201 | billy2007: lspci will give you good information | 00:16 |
| Northernen | aikInsaan, it just means "send the result of the command on the left side of the pipe symbol to the right side". So 'ls | less' means "send result of ls to less. | 00:16 |
| BarkingFish: 4 AM | 00:16 | |

| billy2007 | KM0201, its helpful :) but i was thinking more along the lines of ram size and proccesor | 00:17 |
| Jeruvy | RenatoSilva: ok forget my thought, it seems its not part of main repo's. | 00:17 |
| stephenwade | How do I enable the graphical splash screen on startup? Currently I only have the text-based splash | 00:17 |

| jen | what was I suppose to do? | 00:18 |
| KM0201 | billy2007: for your CPU, cat /proc/cpuinfo | 00:18 |
| BarkingFish | I tried to install it, and it said it couldn't find it | 00:18 |

| KM0201 | i thnk you meant that for someone else | 00:19 |

| jen | and it says command not found? | 00:19 |
| Northernen | jen, it will restart 'alsa'. | 00:19 |
| jen: install alsa | 00:19 | |
| BarkingFish | I have built in wifi, which I'm using now, however I have to sit with the computer on a windowledge about 40ft off the floor with the window open. One slip and it's bye bye laptop :) | 00:19 |
| Maybe pulseaudio is breakiung sound? | 00:19 | |
| stephenwade | Northernen, wrong guy. But I got the message :) How do I edit the grub configuration? | 00:20 |
| jen | missing destination file operand after 'alsa' Try 'install - -hel' for more information | 00:20 |
| jen: sudo apt-get install alsa-base alsa-utils | 00:20 | |
| jen | yes it was working on here I swear! | 00:20 |
| Northernen | stephenwade, only ever removed it during boot. But hold on, let me check. | 00:20 |
| jen: show dpkg.log | 00:20 | |

| Rayve | thats one of the lines I get when I 'mount' | 00:21 |
| jen: aga | 00:21 | |
| BarkingFish | i think the first thing I need to do is find out how to add a mirror so I can download from the internet | 00:21 |
| Jordan_U | jen: The command that shut down your computer was given by a user who has now been removed from the channel for giving it. We try to make sure that nobody is given mallicious commands in this channel, in fact I tried to warn you not to run that command but I was too late. | 00:21 |
| BarkingFish | !mirror | 00:21 |

| jen | err let me see, how do I do that? | 00:25 |
| leccy | jen, use whatever os you're happiest with and what works for you - linux isn't compulsory... :) | 00:25 |
| jen | go to banshee | 00:25 |
| jen | ? | 00:25 |
| jen: alsaconf | 00:25 | |
| aarkerio | try play some mp3 with banshee | 00:25 |
| jen | I like it but...its too conplicated | 00:25 |
| stephenwade | Northernen: that's already there | 00:25 |
| jen: sudo aplay -l | 00:25 | |
| stephenwade | maybe it isn't recognizing my graphics | 00:25 |
| Northernen | stephenwade, and still no splash image. Or did you want to use a custom image? | 00:25 |
| jen | yes it does look like its playing | 00:26 |
| jen | equilizer and all | 00:26 |
| stephenwade | nope, just want to see the default graphcal one and not the text-only one | 00:26 |
| but no sound? | 00:26 | |
| stephenwade | and still no splash image | 00:26 |
| jen | no sound | 00:26 |
| give me my sound | 00:26 | |
| jen | for sudo aplay | 00:26 |
| jen | didnt work | 00:26 |
| aarkerio | jen: you have some "mute" in your sound system | 00:26 |
| jen | no soundcards found | 00:27 |
| jen | but | 00:27 |
| stephenwade | Northernen: The odd thing is that on a similar install on a much older computer the splash works fine. | 00:27 |
| jen | its not on mute I swear!! | 00:27 |
| jen | what is default for sound pref? | 00:27 |
| Northernen | stephenh, do you have 'quiet' on your line? | 00:27 |
| Northernen | stephenwade* | 00:27 |
| jen: find /lib/modules/`uname -r` | grep snd | 00:27 | |
| jen | what does that mean? | 00:27 |
| centux | !nomodeset | stephenwade | 00:27 |
| jrib | pulseaudio only shows dummy output. What can I do? Nothing is reported from "sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/*" | 00:27 |
| ubottu | stephenwade: 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 | 00:27 |
| jen | northern what does that mean? | 00:27 |
| aarkerio | is OK sometimes is a "mute" hidden somewhere | 00:27 |
| stephenwade | GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" | 00:27 |
| stephenwade | yes it is | 00:27 |
| jen | how do I make louder? and non quit? | 00:28 |
| jen | what is the command to fix that | 00:28 |
| aarkerio | try sudo apt-get install alsamixer | 00:28 |
| jen | quiet* | 00:28 |
| [snake] | does ubuntu censor thepiratebay.org or something? | 00:28 |
| stephenwade | should I try ubottu's idea of "nomodeset"? if so, where do I put that | 00:28 |
| aarkerio | and run alsamixer as a normal user | 00:28 |
| Byan | is there anyway to get apt-get logs somewhere? | 00:28 |
| jen | unable to locate package alsamixer? | 00:28 |
| jen | if someone is talking to me please say my name | 00:28 |
| jen | 00:28 | |
| modules | 00:29 | |
| leccy | [snake], tpb was down earlier | 00:29 |
| jen | what? | 00:29 |
| jen: find /lib/modules/`uname -r` | grep snd | 00:29 | |
| any? | 00:29 | |
| [snake] | ok... that's better than censorship.. | 00:29 |
| jen | yes! | 00:29 |
| Senjai | [snake], No, and you don't want to talk about pirate sites here. | 00:29 |
| jen | want me to past? | 00:29 |
| jen: a lot of modules? | 00:29 | |
| jen | yes! | 00:29 |

| KM0201 | first, are you sure pulse audio is installed... sudo apt-get install pulse-audio | 00:48 |
| jen: is there a file /etc/modules | 00:48 | |
| jen | yes it is installed | 00:48 |
| KM0201 | ok. | 00:48 |
| KM0201 | open a terminal, and type "gstreamer-properties" | 00:48 |
| jen | permission denied | 00:48 |
| KM0201: install? maybe uninstall? | 00:48 | |
| KM0201 | if it tells you you need to install gnome-media, install gnome-media | 00:48 |
| clueful | how stable are the NTFS drivers, I'm using ubuntu to host a lab file server, I'd prefer to use NTFS so if something goes wrong I could easily mount it on a windows machine but obviously it needs to be very reliable | 00:48 |
| Northernen | jen, start with sudo. | 00:48 |
| jen | sudo gstreamer-properties? | 00:48 |
| deadlyninja | i just updated my packages in 10.04LTS and now my system hangs at the boot screen. any ideas? | 00:49 |
| jen | oh | 00:49 |
| stephenwade | jen: yes | 00:49 |
| Northernen | jen, yes. | 00:49 |
| KM0201 | jen: no, you don't need sudo w/ gstreamer properties | 00:49 |
| KM0201 | just gstreamer-properties if it tells you you need gnome-media, install gnome-media | 00:49 |
| jen | umm | 00:49 |
| yagoo | clueful, ntfs-3g is the module.. don't use the "ntfs"(separate branch) module | 00:49 |
| KM0201 | ? | 00:49 |
| leccy | clueful, i'd go the other way around tbh, ext3 partitions are more 'rescuable' as they can be mounted by a linux livecd for example | 00:49 |
| KM0201 | you should have had a window open up | 00:49 |
| Byan | wechat: any suggestions? | 00:50 |
| stephenwade | Northernen: Thanks for what help you did give. Gotta go now | 00:50 |
| Northernen | stephenwade, sorry it didn't work mate. | 00:50 |
| clueful | yeah you'd go with ext3 vs ntfs-3g vs fat32? | 00:50 |

| * Byan gonna reboot with standard kernel 1 sec | 00:52 | |
| jen | close multi? | 00:52 |
| leccy | clueful, well, i don't know your requirements, but if ntfs isn't essential to other systems on your n/w i can't see 'being rescuable by windows' as a good reason to use it | 00:52 |
| KM0201 | jen: what are you roptions under multi? | 00:52 |
| Northernen | jen, is the output volume by chance set to 0? | 00:52 |

| leccy | jen create a 10.04 live cd, boot from it, and see if sound works. if yes, then install 10.04 | 01:11 |
| jen | o.O i dont want to! | 01:12 |
| zelozelos | shishir, the best thing 2 do is to change the timer, you can use grub customizer, ubuntu tweak or do it the hard way by editing it by hand | 01:12 |
| jen | I have never installed this | 01:12 |
| jen | My friend did | 01:12 |
| shishir: yes use'em | 01:12 | |
| jen | Im scared I will feck everything up | 01:12 |
| jen | then have nothing DX | 01:12 |
| leccy | jen reinstalling isn't any more complex than the bunch of sudo commands you've been typing all night lol | 01:12 |
| centux | jen: try this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10438492&postcount=2 | 01:12 |
| leccy | jen and booting from a livecd is safe, you can't mess anything up | 01:13 |
| jen | thats for 10.0 and video isnt it? | 01:13 |
| jen | how do I make the cd? | 01:13 |
| jen | I screwed up linux once I dont wanna do it again, I shut it off during update and poof! | 01:14 |
| leccy | it's just 10.04 is a nice stable version that I always trust | 01:14 |
| KM0201 | lol | 01:14 |
| HackerII | lol | 01:14 |
| jen | dunt laugh at meeee | 01:14 |
| jen: ! Ok. U can reboot. 2. U can boot from livecd and "lsmod | grep snd" then we will add them to | 01:14 | |
| KM0201 | leccy: 11.04, 10.10, etc.. is just as stable... LTS has nothing to do w/ stability. | 01:14 |
| jen | o.o | 01:14 |
| HackerII | man, this room makes my day sometimes, lol | 01:14 |
| leccy | KM0201, well... it's superstition... I love my LTS :) | 01:15 |
| jen: find /lib/modules/`uname -r` | grep snd | wc -l | 01:15 | |
| KM0201 | leccy: and thats fine, but to many people think LTS means stable, while the others are "testing".. and thats just not the case | 01:15 |
| HackerII: what i've missed ? | 01:15 | |
| leccy | KM0201, plus, it's the version we use at work, so I use it everywhere else to keep things in synch | 01:15 |
| jen | bash: /lib/modules/2.6.38-10-generic-pae: Is a directory | 01:15 |
| jen | 0 | 01:15 |
| what was the funny joke? | 01:15 | |
| centux | !sense | 01:15 |
| ubottu | Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. | 01:15 |
| jen | its...paeeeee | 01:15 |
| jen | pieee X_X | 01:16 |
| KM0201 | leccy: again, all that is fine... but that has nothing to do w/ stability (which is what was implied) | 01:16 |
| jen: Physical Adress Extension | 01:16 | |
| jen | just...just do team veiwer | 01:16 |
| jen | oh | 01:16 |
| HackerII | wechat 'poof" | 01:16 |
| or Psyhical ^^ | 01:16 | |
| leccy | KM0201, oh, I agree - there's nothing wrong with 11.x - I just don't want to add a graphics card problem to her soundcard problem... if you know what i mean <ahem> | 01:16 |

| === xindzz`off is now known as xindz | ||

| dr_willis | or backup your home if theres anything imporntant on it. | 01:18 |
| zelozelos | or you could boot live cd, backup the valuable data then reinstall ;) | 01:18 |
| dr_willis | make a cd to do what? how did you install in the first place? | 01:18 |
| KM0201 | jen: use gnomebaker and burn the ISO | 01:18 |
| leccy | actually, you can boot from a usb key, iirc | 01:18 |
| HackerII | nice | 01:18 |
| jen | my friend installed it! It was his idea! | 01:18 |
| jen | not mine X_X | 01:18 |
| dr_willis | so go download a iso. and burn it to cd. | 01:18 |
| jen | shouldnt I have 10.0? | 01:18 |
| under: remove slashes at the end? | 01:18 | |
| jen | no website? | 01:19 |
| HackerII | jen, you never installed linux before ?? | 01:19 |
| Northernen | jen, Ubuntu.com. | 01:19 |
| zelozelos | jen ask your friend to fix it since it was his big idea anyhow rofl | 01:19 |
| jen | nope | 01:19 |
| KM0201 | lol | 01:19 |
| HackerII | heh | 01:19 |
| jen | I tried! | 01:19 |
| under | wechat, mount: mounting 192.168.1.3:/home/giuseppe/DreamBox on /mnt/nc10 failed: No such device | 01:19 |

| zelozelos | ijk | 01:19 |
| HackerII | how did you break the sound in the first place | 01:19 |
| centux | dr_willis: she really wants to solve this issue, her question has been in forums for weeks, and no solution so far | 01:20 |
| dr_willis | centux: im not even clear on what the problem is... but its my bed time. :) | 01:20 |
| Linus made that! It was not my idea! | 01:20 | |
| jen | yeah! | 01:20 |
| under: if i knew network filesystem | 01:20 | |
| dr_willis | NFS? :) its fairly straight forward. | 01:21 |
| under | it seems dm800 cant see 192.168.1.3 | 01:21 |

| KM0201 | lol | 01:21 |
| exutux | lol | 01:22 |
| jen | sorry man just checking | 01:22 |
| flubbr | hi | 01:22 |
| dr_willis | jen: its worth the effort to go get your own live cd copy. and keep in your PC tool box. | 01:22 |
| KM0201 | extor: thats fine, like i said, its up to you, i dont' care | 01:22 |
| jen | I dont know how? | 01:22 |
| extor | eh? | 01:22 |
| flubbr | can somebody tell me what makes ubuntu better than debian for a server OS? | 01:22 |
| jen | I want 10.0 | 01:22 |

| jen: sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel | 01:22 | |
| flubbr | can somebody tell me what makes ubuntu better than debian for a server OS? | 01:23 |

| KM0201 | 32bbit live CD. | 01:24 |
| dr_willis | http://mirrors.mit.edu/ubuntu-releases//10.10/ | 01:24 |
| KM0201 | jen: how much RAM do you have? | 01:24 |
| dr_willis | jen: you said you wanted 10.10 why? :) | 01:24 |
| jen | I have no idea, and because natty sucks | 01:24 |
| jen | it got m into this mess | 01:24 |
| dr_willis | jen: and how long have you used natty? | 01:25 |
| jen | and 64 what? | 01:25 |
| KM0201 | natty is fine, unity sucks. | 01:25 |
| jen | prolly nine months? | 01:25 |
| leccy | KM0201, semantics ... :p | 01:25 |
| KM0201 | leccy: :) | 01:25 |
| dr_willis | i will say that unity has gotten better in the alpha.. but still has issues... | 01:25 |
| jen | X_X | 01:25 |
| jen: wget -c http://mirror.bytemark.co.uk/ubuntu-releases//natty/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso | 01:25 | |
| jen | what do i get? | 01:25 |
| flubbr | can somebody tell me what makes ubuntu better than debian for a server OS? | 01:25 |
| KM0201 | dr_willis: unity drove me to lubuntu | 01:25 |
| dr_willis | but personally - im using Lubuntu more and more these days.. | 01:25 |
| dr_willis | jen: if you want 10.10 - i gave the url to a mirror that had it | 01:25 |
| dr_willis | http://mirrors.mit.edu/ubuntu-releases//10.10/ | 01:26 |
| Northernen | !lubuntu | 01:26 |
| ubottu | lubuntu is a project to create a derivative of Ubuntu using the LXDE desktop environment. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu . /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. | 01:26 |
| KM0201 | Northernen: i think !awesome should trigger the Lubuntu factoid | 01:26 |
| jen | umm | 01:26 |
| KM0201 | :) | 01:26 |
| flametai1_ | Hey guys, IDK if this is a proper question for here but, I was curious are there any good FPS games for Linux AND Windows? Looking for one that I could put on my girlfriends computer and play over LAN with her but I have Linux and she has W7 | 01:26 |
| jen | we what am I getting here | 01:26 |
| dr_willis | http://mirrors.mit.edu/ubuntu-releases//10.10/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso | 01:26 |
| Northernen | !awesome | 01:26 |
| Northernen | KM0201, doesn't work. | 01:26 |
| KM0201 | Northernen: but it should.. :) | 01:26 |
| dr_willis | assuming you want the 32bit version of 10.10 with ubuntu.. | 01:26 |
| centux | who can trust in monodon monoceros? | 01:26 |
| Northernen | flametai1_, get Wine and play Windows games. | 01:27 |
| flametai1_ | Northernen, Most games don't work well with WINE | 01:27 |
| dr_willis | flametai1_: theres several. world of padman, and dozens of 'quake3 engine' variants. | 01:27 |
| Northernen | KM0201, might look into that. Don't like Unity, Gnome or KDE a lot. | 01:27 |
| jen | what am I downloading dr? | 01:27 |
| dr_willis | flametai1_: i recall a few others but havent played them in ages. | 01:27 |
| jen | straight 10.0? | 01:27 |
| KM0201 | Northernen: it is really, really slick, and fast... i don't wannna get offtopic, but join #lubuntu if you want. | 01:27 |
| dr_willis | jen: you said you wanted the 10.10 iso file... | 01:27 |
| leccy | jen one big file called an iso - you burn it to a cd, and then the cd contains the whole of ubuntu. then you reboot - but from the cd, not your hard disk, and it'll start up ubuntu, running from the cd | 01:27 |
| dr_willis | Ubuntu Desktop 10.10 --> http://mirrors.mit.edu/ubuntu-releases//10.10/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso | 01:28 |
| flametai1_ | dr_willis, thanks for answering lol, I'll look into em | 01:28 |
| zelozelos | jen the distros are 10.4, 10.10 11.4 theres no 10.0 | 01:28 |
| dr_willis | flametai1_: theres a ubuntu game tome site that has a lot of reviews | 01:28 |
| leccy | i actually made that sound more complicated than it is lol | 01:28 |
| rizzo__ | installed ubunto from scratch, choose lamp server, php still not populating post variables, could a firewall block post variables, (get variables work) | 01:28 |
| rizzo__ | ubuntu* | 01:28 |
| jen | will fit on a 700 MB 80 minute cd rom? | 01:28 |
| KM0201 | jen: yes, it will. | 01:28 |
| jen | by memorex? | 01:28 |
| jen | ok | 01:28 |
| dr_willis | its a cd image. :) so yes. | 01:28 |
| Northernen | KM0201, has a Windows look to it, no? | 01:28 |
| flametai1_ | dr_willis, know the link by chance? | 01:28 |
| KM0201 | Northernen: ah.. i guess sort of.. it has a menu thats kinda windows 'esque | 01:29 |
| dr_willis | flametai1_: just hit google for 'linux game tome' or theres ubuntu specific game sites | 01:29 |
| dr_willis | !games | 01:29 |
| ubottu | Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and http://www.penguspy.com/ | 01:29 |
| KM0201 | Northernen: but thats where similarities end | 01:29 |
| zelozelos | or just search linux games ..thers a ton of sites | 01:29 |
| leccy | jen - don't just copy the file onto the CD - you have to burn it as an iso - there's an option i your cd burning sw for that | 01:29 |
| flametai1_ | ubottu, thanks dude | 01:29 |
| dr_willis | flametai1_: i even recall some gpl/opensourced type steam clone that focused on GPL/Free games. | 01:29 |
| dr_willis | !burn | jen | 01:29 |
| ubottu | jen: CD/DVD burning software: k3b (KDE), brasero (GNOME), gnomebaker, xcdroast, wodim (command-line) | To burn ISO files, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 01:29 |
| Northernen | KM0201, does it use the gnome applications? | 01:30 |
| jen | umm go to gnome burner? | 01:30 |
| zelozelos | jen after download go to the file, right click, burn to cd | 01:30 |
| KM0201 | Northernen: sure, if you want to install them. (ive got a few gnome apps installed) but its based on Openbox.... | 01:30 |

| TrentonAdams | hi guys. I'm sick and tired of my new system slowing down. It's such an amazingly fast system, this should not happen. I keep getting a problem where my keyboard input is extremely delayed. It seems to happen after screensaver activity, but I can't be sure. Anyone have this issue? | 01:36 |
| TrentonAdams | And resolved it? | 01:36 |
| dr_willis | gorf_: at one time did you evern right click on a folder and select open with k3b? | 01:36 |
| wh1zz0: cat > index.html << EOF | 01:36 | |
| wh1zz0 | Wel that's for those really proficient in php and or java | 01:37 |
| Northernen | TrentonAdams, yes, and no. | 01:37 |
| wh1zz0 | Saves time using DM | 01:37 |
| dr_willis | gorf_: you are using gnome or kde? | 01:37 |
| TrentonAdams | I'm using ubuntu classic, and installing KDE as we speak. However, I feel that it's unlikely using KDE will solve the problem. I'm thinking it's something else in the system. We'll see I suppose. | 01:37 |
| gorf_ | dr_willis: nope... just left click | 01:37 |
| flametai1_ | Hey dr_willis know any RC flight simulators for like RC helicopters? | 01:37 |

| leccy | dr_willis, unity I suspect | 01:38 |
| gorf_ | dr_willis: same with other direcories allso | 01:38 |
| Northernen | TrentonAdams, aye. Happens to me after the screensaver, if the computer doesn't freeze altogether. I haven't been able to resolve it. | 01:38 |

| * sleeping | 01:40 | |
| gorf_ | dr_willis: but it's not the same if i open the folder otherwise | 01:40 |
| dr_willis | gorf_: ive seen where folders get set to open with 'vlc' or other media players all the time.. when you use the 'open with ...' dialog it defaults to rembering what you tell it to open with.. so it only takes once to goof it up. | 01:40 |

| eguest309 | hello.got some issues i need some clarfications and help with. i have a monitor connected to my ubuntu machine .the ubnutu machine starts up automatically on startup in kioks mode.what i want to do is to enable sharing of hte workspace wi the montor automatically on startup .is that possible | 01:46 |
| wh1zz0 | I guess I didnt search hard enough.. heh | 01:46 |
| dr_willis | eguest309: ckarify what you mean by shareing of the workspace... | 01:46 |

| eguest309 | like an extened workspace where u cna drag items onto the extended worspace .like when u are having a slideshow and u want ot transfgre stuff from your slide to the external monitor u are using to hsow everyone else | 01:47 |
| dr_willis | eguest309: if you want a seperate keyboard/mouse/display for 2 people using a single machine with 2 sets of monitor/keboard/mouse. theres the 'multiseat' feature of X you can setup. | 01:47 |
| p_res | agree with others. only use dpkg if you are 100% sure you have all deps and libs installed. otherwise, use gdebi and it will sort everything out for you. | 01:48 |

| daniel_richter21 | wechat: locale-gen will just give me the output that locale gives. Any way to actually change the setting? | 02:40 |
| daniel_richter21: sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales | 02:40 | |
| pooopycakes | <--- N00B | 02:40 |
| coz_ | pooopycakes, well it is generally best to go to the channel for the applications..DE ,, whatever if there is one since they would have the resources to fix,, or solve an issue | 02:41 |
| daniel_richter21 | wechat: Same thing. It just generates all the language packages | 02:41 |
| slack-m | Hey, anyone here? I need a test subject that has a web browser thats installed in a language other than english. | 02:41 |
| pooopycakes | thanks coz_ | 02:41 |
| Northernen | How does one list all the directories being created by a given package? | 02:41 |
| haryv | time to reboot | 02:41 |
| Northernen | slack-m, for what? | 02:42 |
| daniel_richter21: nano /etc/default/locale | 02:42 | |
| qaz2011 | anybody use nfs4? | 02:42 |
| daniel_richter21 | wechat: Ohh wow, alright I'll set it manually. Thanks | 02:42 |
| ominomi | :) | 02:42 |
| slack-m | Northernen, to check a language detection script | 02:42 |
| daniel_richter21: It's in gui smth like "Change System Language" too | 02:42 | |
| clueful_ | I'm trying to create a file server...I've set it up two drives each with a partition dedicated to the stored files...I'd like to set up one drive to backup to the other, what's the best way of doing that | 02:43 |
| daniel_richter21 | wechat: It's a server system but thanks! | 02:43 |
| === bluethundr_ is now known as bluethundr | ||
| daniel_richter21: nice | 02:43 | |
| cg2916 | can someone help, whenever i try to resume from suspend, my screen stays black | 02:43 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful_: You doing backups, or just want the same data on both? | 02:43 |
| clueful_: mdadmin, lvm | 02:43 | |
| TrentonAdams | clueful_: If you're doing backups, I would recommend rsync. I have a setup scripts that I eventually planned on putting up on github, but haven't had a chance yet. | 02:44 |
| clueful_ | trentonadams: well main point is hardware redundancy, incremental could be a nice feature if it was easy to set up | 02:44 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful_: Well, just redundancy would be raid1 with mdadm | 02:44 |
| daniel_richter21 | clueful: Did you try installing the appropriate graphic card drivers for your system? | 02:44 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful_: mdadm --create /dev/mdX --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sdaX /dev/sdbX | 02:45 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful_: But, rsync can do full, differential, and incremental in a single backup, while not using space for the full backup. | 02:46 |
| Northernen | slack-m, sorry mate. Apparently I'm using English. | 02:46 |
| nick12524 | finished the reinstall and it still doesnt boot :/ | 02:46 |
| nick12524 | and the drive was perfectly healthy when i checked 20 minutes ago | 02:46 |
| slack-m | Northernen, i got it, i just downloaded dutch firefox | 02:47 |
| slack-m | hehe | 02:47 |
| kerebrus | wechat is there a lightweight VM with a gui? lol | 02:47 |
| TrentonAdams: ^^ bravo | 02:47 | |
| DanaG | hmm, my ubuntu server, booted from USB, hangs for a good 30 seconds after grub, before actually loading the kernel. | 02:47 |
| Phr3d13 | is there a desktop recorder in the default repos that can keep up with the compiz cube? | 02:47 |
| kerebrus: Window? Blackbox | 02:47 | |
| cryptofan | hi cool people! I need a little bit of help with a little project, just a pointer in the right direction :) I'd like to set up a mailing list for distribution of information periodically. Here's the catch. I need to make it so that you must have a password to get into that mailing list. and here's the REAL kicker, I want one-time-use passwords. Who should I talk to? I have a feeling ##linux might not be the right channel for discu | 02:47 |
| TrentonAdams | wechat: ? | 02:48 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, well that's a tough one,,, alot will depend on your system specs,,, however.. not sure kazam is in the repos,,, gtk-recordmydesktop is | 02:48 |
| TrentonAdams: mdadmin is too hard to me to understand | 02:48 | |
| KM0201 | !info gtk-recordmydesktop | Phr3d13 | 02:48 |
| ubottu | Phr3d13: gtk-recordmydesktop (source: gtk-recordmydesktop): Graphical frontend for recordmydesktop screencast tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.8-3ubuntu5 (natty), package size 116 kB, installed size 888 kB | 02:48 |
| * for | 02:48 | |
| clueful | trentonadams: which do you think would be better for a small lab ~5 people with ~1TB of data | 02:49 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, not any that use just a little of the resources ,,, this is one application that is not quite up there yet in my opinion | 02:49 |
| Hathadar | I goofed when setting up a program through apt-get. I try to remove it and install again however it is no longer prompting me for setup information and is using what I previously inputted. How do I completely purge a program from my machine? | 02:49 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: Well, if you're wanting to make absolutely sure you don't loose anything, rsync would be best. But, it wouldn't hurt to mirror and do rsync on another drive. | 02:49 |
| Phr3d13 | coz_, you would recommend getting kazam for trying to record the compiz cube? | 02:49 |
| raido | Hathadar: sudo dpkg --purge packagename | 02:49 |
| Hathadar: rm -rf ~/.program | 02:49 | |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, well actually the best one is just using ffmpeg | 02:50 |
| Hathadar: sudo apt-get purge prgrm | 02:50 | |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: mirroring drives provides a good way of making sure a dead drive doesn't mess with you too much. Just remove the dead drive, and add another one when you get it. | 02:50 |
| clueful | trentonadams: I think for now the plan is to use just two 2TB drives and keep it relatively simple...probably in two-three years we'll move to some type of NAS system | 02:50 |
| nick12524 | any assistance? | 02:50 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: Sure. let me tar up my backup system after removing personally identifiable information. | 02:51 |
| Phr3d13 | does kazam have a gui? | 02:51 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: Then I'll stick it on the web somewhere. | 02:51 |
| Phr3d13 | !kazam | 02:51 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: You know shell scripting a bit? | 02:51 |
| clueful | trentonadams: so maybe the raid is best for minimizing downtime? | 02:51 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, yes it does it is very minimalistic however | 02:51 |
| Phr3d13 | that's ok | 02:51 |
| raido | Hathadar: FYI, when you remove a program, the default behavior is to leave behind the config files for that program. Thus the need for the purge options | 02:51 |
| kerebrus | wechat no I meant a VM, blackbox seems to be a windows manager. | 02:51 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: Well, mirror is best to minimize downtime. However, if a hardware failure occurs, and the system doesn't detect it, you could get bad data copied to the other drive. NOTHING is a substitute for backups. | 02:52 |
| nick12524: throw out the drive | 02:52 | |
| clueful | trentonadams: I'm generally clueful with shell scripting, etc. but don't know much about linux administration (didn't know mdadm, etc. | 02:52 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, also if you make sure ffmpeg is installed... sudo apt-get install ffmpeg a command similar to this one,,, adjusting for your needs,, would work way better than most of the UI applications for this ffmpeg -f alsa -ac 2 -i pulse -f x11grab -r 30 -s 2560x1024 -i :0.0 -acodec pcm_s16le -vcodec libx264 -vpre lossless_ultrafast -threads 0 output.mkv | 02:52 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: Well rsync shouldn't be too bad then. | 02:52 |
| nick12524 | i dont have another one though :/ | 02:52 |
| clueful | trentonadams: I've used rsync and unison before | 02:52 |
| qaz2011 | :(((((( | 02:52 |
| clueful | trentonadams: how would one reconstitute a bad drive with rsync? | 02:53 |
| kerebrus: KVM uses QEMU. QEMU has GUI none? KVM is the most liked by the professionals | 02:53 | |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, in that command the "2560x1024 would be a dual monitor set up so you would have to change at the least that resolution setting | 02:53 |
| Hathadar | Is NFS the default for shaing files between two linux boxes? | 02:53 |
| Gunz4MiPPle | Hathadar: historically, yes | 02:54 |
| kerebrus | wechat well im not a proffessional lol kvm has no gui. Im looking for a lightweight VM with a gui. | 02:54 |
| nick12524: SystemRescueCd http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page | 02:54 | |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: rsync -avN /source/folder/ /destination/folder | 02:54 |
| coz_ | kerebrus, virtualbox vmware ? | 02:54 |
| Gunz4MiPPle | altho it shares drives by mounting them, not files | 02:54 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: literally that simple | 02:54 |
| Gunz4MiPPle | it used to be a pain | 02:54 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: the nice backups are more complex, but the restore is simpler. Also, if you want just a single file, you go grab that one file and put it back in place. | 02:55 |
| kerebrus: KVM is in kernel , it's lightweight | 02:55 | |
| babu | when i create a db in mysql,where it will be stored | 02:55 |
| babu | when i create a db in mysql,where it will be stored | 02:55 |
| Gunz4MiPPle | Hathadar: I would just use samba | 02:55 |
| Phr3d13 | coz_, how would the command go for 1680x1050 resolution outputting to an avi? | 02:55 |
| babu: /var/lib/... ? | 02:55 | |
| kerebrus | wechat kvm would be nice if it was easier to setup. | 02:55 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, in the command I gave you replace the 2560x1024 with that resolution | 02:56 |
| kerebrus: ^^ | 02:56 | |
| clueful | trentonadams: so that one just makes the destination folder identical to the source folder? | 02:56 |
| AcidRain | so is there no documentation on getting an sms message to show up properly on a cell phone from a computer? | 02:56 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: yes | 02:57 |
| AcidRain | like if i email a cell number, trying to text it. how can i get it to show up perfect | 02:57 |
| AcidRain | i have accomplished this on android devices. | 02:57 |
| AcidRain | and cingular actually. | 02:57 |
| AcidRain | but some devices dont want to open the message at all | 02:57 |
| clueful | trentonadams: would you recommend just doing that vs. the raid or vs. a more complex rsync protocol which might give you incrementals? | 02:57 |
| clueful | trentonadams: my main fear is being able to reconstitute the backup easily in case of failure... | 02:58 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: If you want to do the rsync protocol to another server, you can do that too. My scripts support anything rsync can, but use rsync as the mechanism. | 02:58 |
| Phr3d13 | coz_, and how would i stop the recording? terminate it with ctrl+c? | 02:58 |
| AcidRain | i just want an email mailed to a cell phone's number show up properly | 02:58 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: Yeah, that one command I gave you would do it. | 02:59 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, ctrl+c should do it | 02:59 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: I'm talking just data of course. Server setup is something else. | 02:59 |
| Phr3d13 | ok | 02:59 |
| clueful | trentonadams: it would be local...I guess I'd want it to be scheduled regularly if it were rsync...not an issue with raid I guess | 02:59 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: Though I have recovered an entire system from an rsync backup . :D But you've got to know how linux works quite a bit for that. | 02:59 |
| Phr3d13 | coz_, Unknown encoder 'libx264' | 02:59 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, the nice thing about using ffmpeg is that there is no UI taking up any of the resources | 02:59 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, ?? mmm | 02:59 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: Yeah, I put my backups in cronjob. At work, it's hourly, at home it's twice a day. | 03:00 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, you are on ubuntu 11.04 ...yes? | 03:00 |
| clueful | trentonadams: I don't think that's necessary just the data will be fine | 03:00 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, let me check here | 03:00 |
| Phr3d13 | yup | 03:00 |
| clueful | clueful: only thing in the server setup is samba and a few user accounts so that should be ok | 03:00 |
| pangthagerous200 | This is probably an overly simple question, but where would I go to edit keyboard shortcuts? The show desktop shortcut is a bit clunky for my fingers and I have been using it a lot lately | 03:00 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: Yeah, I would recommend setting up two backups (data folder, and /etc/) | 03:00 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, mm its working here ,,oh! also keybaord "q" will stop the recording better | 03:01 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, hold on | 03:01 |
| Phr3d13 | coz_, i have 2 packages showing up libx264-dev and libx264-106 | 03:01 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: And if ubuntu, run "dpkg --get-selections > selections.txt" and back that up too. | 03:01 |
| clueful | trentonadams: ok do you think that having rsync run on the whole volume every hour (or daily) is bad for the drive? | 03:01 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, do you have all of the codecs installed? | 03:01 |
| Phr3d13 | i thought so | 03:01 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 03:01 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: no, hard drives last FOREVER. :P | 03:01 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: besides, reads don't tend to wear the drive out much. It's the writing that does. | 03:02 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: I've only seen the moving parts fail once. | 03:02 |
| pangthagerous200: gnome-system-config | 03:02 | |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: At least on my systems. If you're doing lots of servers, it happens regularly. But for the average joe, you won't see much for dead hard drives. | 03:02 |
| Phr3d13 | coz_, to install i have to remove 2 packages libavcodec52 and libavutil50 | 03:03 |
| clueful | trentonadams: sure but I don't want to hasten their death dramatically and also if its constantly backing up it might impact performance...its setup to be a gigabit server and may have data shoved into it pretty quickly so I don't want it to get slowed down much | 03:03 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, did you do the sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras? | 03:03 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: How much ram you have? If your system is caching, the backups won't even touch your source drive the next time, unless you're using up your ram with other programs. | 03:03 |
| Phr3d13 | yeah, that's what i'm trying to do, and it told me i hadda remove those two packages | 03:03 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, that's fine go with it | 03:03 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: besides, hard drives are dirt cheap these days. | 03:03 |
| Phr3d13 | maybe they're in the meta-package | 03:03 |
| pangthagerous200: gnome-keyboard-properties | 03:04 | |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, also here is a quick reference for screencasting with ffmpeg https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts/ffmpeg | 03:04 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, try the record command on that link as well | 03:04 |
| venial | ok i once was running ubuntu, switched to windows, and now back to ubuntu and i can't pickup my extra storage sata drives that were in linux format, i see them in disk utility but i can't mound them | 03:05 |
| venial | any suggestions? | 03:05 |
| clueful | trentonadams: basically no programs running, its strictly a fileserver...but it probably won't cache the hdd will it? also there will probably be a lot of writes for which it won't help | 03:05 |
| Phr3d13 | coz_, got it to record... the output is all glitchy | 03:05 |
| pangthagerous200 | wechat, got it, thanks! | 03:06 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, well if ffpmeg is glitchy I am guessing the gtk-recordmydesktop will be also, however, I would install that and give it a try as well | 03:06 |
| venial: why? | 03:06 | |
| clueful | trentonadams: so you think the rsync is a better way to go than the raid? | 03:06 |
| pangthagerous200: good | 03:06 | |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, nvidia card? | 03:06 |
| venial | wechat, i tried to mount them in windows with plugins | 03:06 |
| venial | etc etc | 03:06 |
| venial | and it was fail | 03:06 |
| Phr3d13 | coz_, yes | 03:06 |
| venial | so i said fuck it and went back | 03:06 |
| FloodBot1 | venial: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:06 |
| venial: what??? ext2viewer | 03:07 | |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: Yes, unless you plan on both. You do not want to lose data because your one drive starts corrupting data before it dies. | 03:07 |
| h00k | !language | venial | 03:07 |
| venial | yeah some thing along those lines | 03:07 |
| ubottu | venial: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 03:07 |
| Phr3d13 | coz_, GeForce 9400 GT | 03:07 |
| venial | to be honest i like 10.4 so much i might just stay with it | 03:07 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, ok that may actually be part of the issue,, I have nvidia here as well,, glitchy at best results..however i have seen and talked with people with ati cards and ffmpeg works like a charm,,, go figure :( | 03:07 |
| venial | however i want my data back | 03:07 |
| venial | any suggestions? | 03:07 |
| clueful | trentonadams: wouldn't you have the same problem with rsync? | 03:07 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, try gtk-recordmydesktop,, that has a gui and can also be used in terminal as well I believe | 03:08 |
| venial: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2read/ | 03:08 | |
| venial | in linux? | 03:08 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, rather recordmydesktop can be used in command line ,,, gtk-recordmydesktop is the front end to it | 03:08 |
| Phr3d13 | coz_, you think if i downed the resolution on my screen and the output it would work/look better? | 03:08 |
| venial: nope | 03:08 | |
| venial | yeah im back in linux | 03:08 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, yes for sure | 03:08 |
| venial: sudo mount | 03:08 | |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: Only on the "recent" backups. That's why you keep a few months worth, if you can | 03:08 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, that will always reduce the glitches | 03:08 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, but not sure how much ,, just experiment with it | 03:09 |
| clueful | TrentonAdams: how do you set up rsync to do that? | 03:09 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, I wish you luck on t his one,, I have had none with screencasting on linux | 03:09 |
| TrentonAdams | clueful: I'm querying you privately. | 03:09 |
| coz_ | Phr3d13, let me take t hat back,, actually ffmpeg on Fedora was remarkable,, so I am not sure what is on Ubuntu causing issues | 03:09 |

| yagoo | chipmonk, you type "/" in front of join to do the command | 04:28 |
| yagoo | ,/join <#channel> (without comma) | 04:28 |
| Snarsh | seeing as apache.conf loads *.conf and *.load from the mods-enabled directory, and all files in the mods-enabled directory are symlinks to the mods-available directory, i'm guessing that it does make the most sense to create a symlink to the mod_userdir.load and mod_userdir.conf in the mods-enabled directory and apache2.conf will be able to use the UserDir command. also httpd told me this was a os specific question and told me to c | 04:31 |

| OerHeks | YellowGTO, i 'm sorry, if unmute does not work, are you on a laptop with a special FN function key for sound & mic ? | 05:00 |
| nit-wit | derpadong, you might try the xswat ppa, or the xorg-edgers fresh X crack ppa | 05:00 |
| derpadong | Why nit-wit? | 05:00 |
| nit-wit | derpadong, they have driver packages not in the regular repos for graphic cards. | 05:01 |
| nit-wit | derpadong, if you use Ubuntu Tweak there is a ppa remover that will basically remove stuf installed that you don't want in the end, makes it fairly easy. | 05:02 |

| yagoo | Noor_egy, maybe it's trying to boot from the wrong partition | 05:54 |
| idlemind | clonezilla or some clone utility is your best bet as far as ease goes | 05:54 |
| Noor_egy: chainloader +1 | 05:54 | |
| yagoo | Noor_egy, try booting off any other ntfs partition (this system reserved ntfs partition may be about 100-300 megs-- this is likely the one) | 05:54 |

| Younder | Why does ubuntu use gnome version 2 instead of 3? | 06:03 |
| madbomber | 11.04? | 06:03 |
| Aranel: if u want to clone disk then pribably not | 06:03 | |
| yagoo | Noor_egy, what's on sda5/6/7 (c:\ is which one?) | 06:04 |
| ZiRiu | Younder, you can install gnome 3 if you want | 06:04 |
| yagoo | Noor_egy, if u dont know you can mount the ntfs drives with the ntfs-3g module | 06:04 |
| Noor_egy | sda1 | 06:04 |
| Younder | Ziber, I know | 06:04 |
| Aranel | wechat: I want to move my entire Ubuntu installation from one hdd to another and start using it from there | 06:04 |
| Younder | ZiRiu, I know | 06:04 |
| yagoo | Noor_egy, can you type ->"file -s /dev/sda1" ? | 06:04 |
| suifengl | but now | 06:04 |
| yagoo | Noor_egy, that just probes | 06:05 |
| madbomber | i use ubuntu classic on 11.04 | 06:05 |
| madbomber | cuz the new one sux | 06:05 |
| madbomber | i just installed 64 bit | 06:05 |
| madbomber | seems faster | 06:05 |
| nit-wit | Aranel, you can dd it, or clone it with clonezilla which saves the mbr, or trasfer it with gparted. | 06:05 |
| Younder | 64 bit is obviously faster on a 64 bit machine. It also requires 30% more RAM.. | 06:06 |
| Aranel | nit-wit: gparted = some GUI love ^^ how to do it with gparted? | 06:06 |
| madbomber | i didnt even know if i had a 64 bit machine lol, but its an intel multi core | 06:06 |
| madbomber | so its 64 bit right/ | 06:06 |
| Noor_egy | yagoo http://codepad.org/c3sVgymN | 06:06 |
| madbomber | it said so when i ran lcpu | 06:06 |
| madbomber | or whatever | 06:06 |
| FloodBot1 | madbomber: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:06 |
| babu | is there any java channel | 06:06 |
| nit-wit | Aranel, it is a copy paste I believe, the second HD has to have a same or bigger partition. | 06:06 |
| jen | o.o | 06:06 |
| jen | ken... | 06:07 |
| babu | i want to copy the result of command after execution to clipboard | 06:07 |
| Younder | madbomber, depends some 64 bit machines are not supported | 06:07 |
| madbomber | well its running so it must be eh. ? where do i look up my system. i dont see it under about unbuntu. sorry ima newb | 06:07 |
| babu | for e.g when i execute cat a.c ....the contents of a.c should be copied to clipboard.. | 06:07 |
| babu | how to do it | 06:07 |
| KM0201 | jen: you have a PM | 06:07 |
| Younder | madbomber, look for em64 the MAN extension to 64 bit. Intel licences it for it's own CPU's too | 06:08 |
| Younder | AMD | 06:08 |
| Lasers | babu: xclip ? | 06:08 |
| Lasers | !info xclip | babu | 06:09 |

| gaurav_natty | i want to analize my website traffic on my terminal | 06:09 |
| madbomber | i know but where do i go to see my system profile, like my hardware, in ubuntu classic shell | 06:09 |
| yagoo | Noor_egy, can you type "mount" ? | 06:09 |
| yagoo | (mount <enter>) | 06:09 |
| Younder | ubuntu does automount | 06:09 |
| yagoo | Noor_egy, that will list the mountpoints.. try seeing if /dev/sda5/6/7 is mounted | 06:09 |
| gaurav_natty | i want to analize my website traffic on my terminal , is there any tool | 06:10 |
| Younder | so mount/unmount is usually unnecessary | 06:10 |
| yagoo | gaurav_natty, google webalizer | 06:10 |
| tamran | is there a PPA for old kernels? | 06:10 |
| TimmyT | im going to make a multiseat. here i see an example of xorg.conf : http://pastebin.com/YeCsnmhy . in the device section where BusID is defined is written PCI:1:0:0 and somewhere else PCI 0:2:0 . How can I find out this configurations on my own system? i've an onboard graphic card and a PCI Express one | 06:10 |
| Noor_egy | yagoo http://codepad.org/gyPj2tyL | 06:10 |
| gaurav_natty | can i see that result on my terminal | 06:10 |
| madbomber | where do i go to see my damn hardware from ubuntus perspetive? :) | 06:10 |
| gaurav_natty | yagoo, can i see that result on my terminal | 06:10 |
| babu | Lasers, wat s meant by !info | 06:11 |
| yagoo | Noor_egy, can u acess the desktop with nautilus or konqueror to /media/D , /media/E or, /media/F ? | 06:11 |
| Younder | madbomber, administrative meny, system | 06:11 |
| madbomber | oh younder, i have 7 processors at 870 @ 2.93 GHz? running64 bit natty | 06:11 |
| madbomber | this means im actually in 64 right? :) | 06:11 |
| st47 | babu: it's just an instruction that tells ubottu to give you information, see the message that ubottu said | 06:11 |
| yagoo | Noor_egy, see which one has "Windows" or "WINDOWS" folder.. | 06:11 |
| Younder | madbomber, sounds like a intel i7 | 06:11 |
| Younder | madbomber, so yes | 06:12 |
| madbomber | its 64bit if its running ubuntu 65 rite? man im rusty lol. okay thanks | 06:12 |
| madbomber | yea it seems faster | 06:12 |
| madbomber | i alsmost installed mint or some other dumb ones ubuntu | 06:12 |
| madbomber | kubuntu | 06:12 |
| Aranel | nit-wit: okay I created a new/bigger ext3 partition on my new hdd, now how can I copy/paste it? :) | 06:12 |
| yagoo | gaurav_natty, i believe there are so many tools for this.. this isn't really ubuntu related | 06:13 |
| nit-wit | Aranel, hyou on a live cd? | 06:13 |
| Aranel | nit-wit: nope, but I do have one -Ubuntu 11.04-, I can boot from it | 06:13 |
| KM0201 | madbomber: you can confirm what kernel you're using, by typing "uname -a" no quotes, and don't forget the space, in a terminal | 06:13 |
| yagoo | gaurav_natty, i would use "list of software web analysis site:wikipedia" in google searcvh | 06:13 |
| gaurav_natty | yagoo, i want all my website traffic on terminal in ubuntu | 06:13 |
| babu | when i typed !info..it displays man page for talk | 06:13 |
| babu | wat it means | 06:14 |
| nit-wit | Aranel, you have to do this from a live cd using gparted just turn off the swap and right click the partion to save , then copy and then paste to the new HD. | 06:14 |
| yagoo | Noor_egy, did my post make sense? | 06:14 |
| yagoo | Noor_egy, nautilus is gnome's default file browser | 06:14 |
| nit-wit | Aranel, been awhile since I have done it but it is justa a dd using gparted, I think you may have to load the grub bootloader to the new HD's mbr. | 06:15 |
| madbomber: cut some processors for me ^) | 06:15 | |

| nit-wit | *for | 06:17 |
| === jackal is now known as Guest89512 | ||
| nit-wit | Aranel, you wouldn't copy paste the swap but make a new one, then in the terminal run sudo blkid to get the new uuid for the swap and put it in fstab | 06:18 |
| Aranel | nit-wit: okay ^^ now I'm off to boot from livecd and copy it :) | 06:19 |

| nick12524 | witch always finds nothing | 06:22 |
| Guest89512 | how do I get higher resolutions? | 06:23 |
| nit-wit | nick12524, to make this easiest lets use the bootscript, it is a excellent tool just for this. http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ pastebin the text file. | 06:23 |

| redeyyez | my nix box becomes sluggish after a week or so. Ive ran ps -A / ps -a and kill many process via kill PID, Not totally certain if that's a good idea, and that doesn't totally return it to a "fresh" boot state, probably a n00b solution but im sure there's gotta be more i don't grasp yet on how to fix this via terminal rather than doing "kill" or "reboot".

| flametai1 | I had a wireless keyboard previously and it all of a sudden out of the blue stopped working with Ubuntu 10.10, but if I pressed the FN key on it it would just continuously type iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii over and over. Until I pressed a button and then it would stop. Thinking the keyboard was the problem I bought a new one, which is a corded USB keyboard. It worked for about 2 months and now this one is working fine except it | 07:14 |
| flametai1 | presses iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii over and over now randomly. | 07:14 |
| samsul__ | wasanzy_ : could you tell me please.. | 07:14 |
| flametai1 | Anyone know my god damn problem? | 07:14 |
| TimmyT | hooooolaaaaaaaaa | 07:14 |
| TimmyT | hey guys | 07:14 |
| TimmyT | morning | 07:15 |
| wasanzy_ | to tell you how to setup bind9? do you already have it install? | 07:15 |
| flametai1 | About ready to throw Ubuntu out the window as much as I like it =/ It's just becoming a pain in the ass now though. | 07:15 |
| samsul__ | i just install it.. | 07:15 |
| MrDudle | flametai1: swearing won't help you | 07:15 |
| MrDudle | flametai1: Did that only happen in a certain program? | 07:16 |
| === jackal is now known as Guest55748 | ||
| flametai1 | MrDudle, swearing makes me feel better considering I've asked this question in here AND #linux a thousand times and no one seems to know what's going on =| | 07:16 |
| MrDudle | Or in all programs that allow text input? | 07:16 |
| === Guest55748 is now known as jackalco | ||
| MrDudle | Well, flametai1, people here do have lives. | 07:16 |
| flametai1 | MrDudle, anything, even the OS itself. | 07:16 |
| MrDudle | I'm not even sure what that means. | 07:16 |
| MrDudle | How do you know it would produce 'i' if it wasn't in a program or something? | 07:17 |
| flametai1 | .........selects a file/folder that has i in it | 07:17 |
| flametai1 | searches for files with "i" | 07:17 |
| flametai1 | etc. | 07:17 |

| flametai1 | MrDudle, the keyboard is brand friking new. | 07:20 |
| nick1254 | how to completly wipe a hard drive? | 07:20 |
| MrDudle | This is why I don't like wireless things. | 07:20 |
| yagoo | nick1254, how are you doing? | 07:20 |
| nick1254 | still no success | 07:21 |
| flametai1 | MrDudle, the one pressing i randomly isn't wireless. My previous one is wireless and presses i when I press FN | 07:21 |
| yagoo | nick1254, yikes | 07:21 |

| MrDudle | you tried it before i gave you the link? | 07:24 |
| nick1254 | yes | 07:24 |
| MrDudle | try redownloading it | 07:24 |
| MrDudle | and reburning | 07:25 |
| yagoo | nick1254, you sure u have them on sata? (like they're not external harddrive boxes that can have usb and sata ports) | 07:26 |
| nick1254 | no its an internal hard drive | 07:26 |
| nick1254 | and its sata | 07:26 |
| nick1254 | iv tried unpluging it all from the motherboard and plugging it back in 2 times | 07:26 |
| yagoo | nick1254, sata1/2 | 07:26 |
| Aaron_ | hey i have a question i just install compiz and i started it up, but the minimize button and the close button are no longer appear the tittle bar is gone any ideas? | 07:27 |
| Guest99024 | test | 07:27 |
| nick1254 | its in sata 1 | 07:27 |
| Guest99024 | good | 07:27 |
| yagoo | Aaron_, try using the metacity window manager.. | 07:27 |
| nick1254 | the motherboard has 6 sata slots | 07:27 |
| Aaron_ | yagoo, how? | 07:27 |
| yagoo | nick1254, sata1 drive? sounds too old | 07:27 |
| yagoo | !metacity | 07:28 |
| Aaron_ | if i enable metacity then, compiz dissappears | 07:28 |
| nick1254 | oh im not sure if its 1 or 2 | 07:28 |
| yagoo | nick1254, if they're new then they're sata2 | 07:28 |
| nick1254 | i just ment its hooked into the 1st sata slot on the motherboard | 07:28 |
| Aaron_ | any help? | 07:28 |
| nick1254 | the computer is probably about 3 or 4 years old | 07:29 |
| nick1254 | and its the origonal hard drive | 07:29 |
| Loshki | nick1254: and what exactly are you trying to do? | 07:29 |
| nick1254 | the bios wont alow me to place the hard drive in the boot order | 07:29 |
| nick1254 | so i cant boot an operating system from the hard drive | 07:29 |
| nick1254 | only off live cds | 07:29 |
| yagoo | Loshki, he was never able to show his harddrive on the boot-order menu with bios..though his bios shows the harddrives in the bios and powerup | 07:29 |
| nick1254 | yes the bios recognizes that its there | 07:30 |
| yagoo | and.. I even helped him update his bios too | 07:30 |
| nick1254 | but i cant place it in the boot order | 07:30 |
| * yagoo thinks gateway may be putting a hardware restriction | 07:30 | |
| yagoo | nick1254, the only risk u can probably take is to use a bios not from gateway .. but that's probably too risky.. | 07:31 |
| nick1254 | yea wont that mess up the motherboard potentially? | 07:31 |
| nick1254 | nad when vista was on the hard drive it would boot | 07:31 |
| nick1254 | *and | 07:32 |
| Loshki | yagoo: thanks, I totally missed that part. On my cheap ECS mobo, I've had problems like that. As a workaround, can't you boot from somewhere else? | 07:33 |
| k_sze | Do nvidia graphics card still work in general? | 07:33 |
| demonmachine | :) | 07:33 |
| k_sze | I think I'm going out there to buy the cheapest one that supports DVI or HDMI output. | 07:34 |
| k_sze | this analog d-sub output to my LCD is killing my eyes. | 07:34 |
| yagoo | Loshki, nick1254 | 07:34 |
| nick1254 | yes | 07:35 |
| * yagoo says nick1254 has updated his bios to 1.00R | 07:35 | |
| nick1254 | and i have an ecs mobo | 07:35 |
| nick1254 | its an ecs nvidia 680i lt | 07:36 |
| Loshki | k_sze: read newegg and search ebay reviews to be sure whatever you buy will run well under ubuntu... | 07:36 |
| yagoo | nick1254, you said u install ubuntu to one of the drives? | 07:36 |
| yagoo | (installed?) | 07:36 |
| nick1254 | yes iv installed 11.4 | 07:36 |
| nick1254 | and 10.4 | 07:36 |
| nick1254 | and neither will boot | 07:36 |
| yagoo | on two physical drives? | 07:37 |
| nick1254 | well both on the same drive | 07:37 |
| nick1254 | one at a time | 07:37 |
| nick1254 | first 11.4 | 07:37 |
| nick1254 | that wouldnt bot so i tried 10.4 | 07:37 |
| Libear | 大家好 | 07:37 |
| Loshki | nick1254: but you successfully previously booted vista from that drive in that slot? | 07:37 |
| yagoo | nick1254, do you have any "Legacy IDE->AHCI" bios option? | 07:38 |
| nick1254 | yes | 07:38 |
| Libear | 在么 | 07:38 |
| nick1254 | thats what was on the machine when i got it | 07:38 |

| Rouse | what is the command for rebooting ? | 07:41 |
| nick1254 | im calling it quits for the night | 07:41 |
| nick1254 | im sick of working on this for now haha | 07:41 |
| nick1254 | thanks though for all the help | 07:41 |
| nick1254 | maybe il figure it out eventually | 07:42 |
| yagoo | Rouse, reboot | 07:42 |
| Rouse | command not found | 07:43 |
| rkhshm | are there any perl modules for capturing subnet activity | 07:43 |
| yagoo | Rouse, shutdown -r | 07:43 |
| yagoo | or do ctl-alt-del in console | 07:43 |
| yagoo | :p | 07:43 |
| rkhshm | i'm planning to write a script to get all IPs within the subnet and procure its activity | 07:44 |
| yagoo | rkhshm, LOL | 07:44 |
| rkhshm | yagoo: why? | 07:44 |
| === onats_ is now known as onats | ||
| yagoo | rkhshm, you need an ethercap device | 07:45 |
| Rouse | done | 07:45 |
| yagoo | if this is at the router then it's possible (using an attachment to a switch) | 07:45 |
| yagoo | Rouse, mind me saying rebooting doesnt always fix things in linux | 07:45 |
| yagoo | rkhshm, i'm sure there's more than half a good dozen socket libraries for perl | 07:46 |
| yagoo | rkhshm, i'm not too sure how well "promiscuous" modes can be set in perl.. | 07:47 |
| aum | is there any firefox and cookie related room | 07:48 |

| LostyJai | hey guys... | 07:54 |
| LostyJai | anyone good with grub | 07:54 |
| Queeb | hi | 07:54 |
| LostyJai | for some reason my ubuntu boots up in GRUB | 07:55 |
| LostyJai | "GNU GRUB version 1.98-1ubuntu12" to be exact | 07:55 |
| LostyJai | how do i tell it to boot? | 07:55 |
| jiltdil | want to use the original unix os any one have the link to download iso? | 07:56 |
| yagoo | LostyJai, ? | 07:56 |
| YankDownUnder | LostyJai, Um...what exactly do you mean? "Boots up in GRUB" is not really very illustrative... | 07:56 |
| aum | i have edited cookies.sqlite manually but my browser is not showing the changes is there any other file to edit | 07:56 |
| yagoo | you're trying to update grubstage1/2 and mbr for grub2 but grub1 is loaded up instead? | 07:56 |
| LostyJai | um... | 07:56 |
| yagoo | ,/for/to/ grub2 | 07:57 |
| YankDownUnder | aum, Have you asked this question in #firefox? | 07:57 |
| LostyJai | i start up my server | 07:57 |
| LostyJai | and it just goes into grub command line | 07:57 |
| aum | yes but nobody is replying | 07:57 |
| YankDownUnder | LostyJai, Right - that explains. | 07:57 |
| yagoo | LostyJai, did u do update-grub2 ? | 07:57 |
| LostyJai | do you want a screenshot? | 07:57 |
| YankDownUnder | LostyJai, Have you booted the server with a live CD and then try to re-install grub? | 07:57 |
| LostyJai | i don't know how i can better explain it | 07:57 |
| LostyJai | yagoo: no | 07:57 |
| yagoo | u didnt generate a grub.cfg file | 07:58 |
| LostyJai | it booted up fine before | 07:58 |
| LostyJai | but not anymore | 07:58 |
| YankDownUnder | LostyJai, Here's what I picture: You turn on the machine. It goes through the post, then just sits at the GRUB menu, right? | 07:58 |
| LostyJai | yes | 07:58 |
| LostyJai | well it's not really a menu | 07:58 |
| LostyJai | it's more...... GRUB terminal | 07:58 |
| truepurple | Is there a special reason to mount a independent third partition into home rather then into its own spot? | 07:59 |
| YankDownUnder | LostyJai, Yes yes yes, I know...been there done that. What you want to do is to boot with a liveCD, then "chroot" to the root filesystem, mounting everything you need to mount, then re-install grub. | 07:59 |
| yagoo | LostyJai, easy solution.. just use ubuntuinstallcd and choose repair grub install | 07:59 |
| LostyJai | how do i get it to boot off hd(0,1) ? | 07:59 |
| LostyJai | mmmmm | 07:59 |
| LostyJai | ok | 07:59 |
| LostyJai | advanced options -> rescue mode? | 08:00 |
| yagoo | i believe so | 08:00 |
| jvgeli | need help, im installing kernel 3 on natty,but when i get to the headers it says dependency not satisfied but the dependency its referring to is itself | 08:00 |
| LostyJai | well nothing else to select | 08:00 |
| yagoo | !grub | 08:00 |
| ubottu | 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) | 08:00 |
| LostyJai | here goes | 08:00 |
| yagoo | LostyJai, there's also this.. but i never used it | 08:02 |
| yagoo | LostyJai, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 08:02 |
| LostyJai | thanks | 08:02 |
| truepurple | Is there a special reason to mount a independent third partition into home rather then into its own spot? | 08:04 |
| yagoo | truepurple, well to create shares u need to have it more public for 1+ users | 08:05 |
| yagoo | truepurple, i don't know what you mean "own spot".. I'm guessing you mean /media /mnt standard locations | 08:05 |
| truepurple | Sure on the second thing you said | 08:06 |
| truepurple | But the first, "create shares"? | 08:06 |
| yagoo | truepurple, i was guessing what you were meaning about user's own preference-- making a user's own sharing under his home directory | 08:07 |
| al__ | whats the flags to the cp command to copy everything unless it is a *avi AND over say 5G in size? | 08:07 |
| jvgeli | need help, im installing kernel 3 on natty,but when i get to the headers it says dependency not satisfied but the dependency its referring to is itself | 08:07 |
| yagoo | truepurple, bottom line is security.. how much you want a user to allow him to make his own mountpoints | 08:08 |
| yagoo | jvgeli, that sounds like bleeding edge.. kernel v 3 already? | 08:08 |
| === al__ is now known as al_nz1 | ||
| jvgeli | yagoo: yeah. | 08:08 |
| yagoo | they jumped .6 numbers.. looks like about a week ago.. | 08:09 |
| jvgeli | yagoo: anyway i got it to install forcibly. restarting now to try it on Natty. | 08:09 |
| truepurple | yagoo: I never said anything about "users own preference" | 08:09 |
| yagoo | jvgeli, what does it have.., usb3 ? | 08:09 |
| truepurple | yagoo: I am the only person that uses this PC | 08:10 |
| yagoo | jvgeli, /home implies user's own | 08:10 |
| jvgeli | yagoo: not sure. but Im using one of the fusion APU from AMD and support has recently been added to the latest kernel. | 08:10 |
| yagoo | jvgeli, fusefilesystems overcome the burdence of old system filesystem maintenance.. (gnomevfs) | 08:10 |

| corestorm | this is going to sound really stupid, i'm new to linux. my friend installed it on my computer for me. how exactly do i remove arping | 08:41 |
| astraljava | babu: What do you mean upgrade openoffice only? Why do you need to upgrade it in the first place? Please be more specific with your questions, it's really hard to guess what you're after. | 08:42 |
| shen | apt-get --purge remove | 08:42 |
| cad | in terminal : sudo apt-get remove {package-name} / or purge | 08:42 |
| Benkinooby | hi, i am looking for a pdf view that can show annotations... suggestions? i tried evince, gv, xpdf.. with out luck... is ther a package to be installed for annotation supprt? | 08:42 |

| bluecatss | hi alll | 08:42 |
| viii | hey, anyone have troubles with or running a lenovo y470? | 08:42 |
| bluecatss | nice to meat you | 08:43 |
| astraljava | babu: From what version? Which ubuntu release are you using? There are possibilities, but I'm really not sure why you want to do that in the first place. | 08:43 |
| corestorm | Okay thanks | 08:43 |
| corestorm | i'll try this again i really appreciate your help on this. | 08:44 |
| janedoe | hey, I have been thinking about about installing neorouter, however ubuntu gives me a notification about it being my risk installing it and that it could cause damage.. could anyone recommend doing it anyway? | 08:44 |
| babu | astraljava, i'm using ubuntu 10.10... i'm currently using v3.2 | 08:44 |
| bluecatss | nice to meat you babu | 08:44 |
| dyd | i have a tar file, i want the files to be extracted in /, how do i run the command? | 08:44 |
| llutz | dyd tar -C | 08:45 |
| soreau | dyd: / isnt a good place to store files for one | 08:45 |
| dyd | the files are of flash player | 08:45 |
| soreau | ! flash | 08:46 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 08:46 |
| dyd | if i extract them with tar xvf install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz | 08:46 |
| dyd | it creates a folder | 08:46 |
| astraljava | babu: Ahh... then, I'm afraid, it's only possible by compiling from sources. However, there's a LibreOffice PPA on launchpad, if you really need that. Just out of curiosity, is this related to printing to PDF, or another matter? | 08:46 |
| tomodachi | dyd: why not install flash from aptitude? | 08:46 |
| dyd | soreau: thanks | 08:46 |
| astraljava | babu: I just won't recommend the usage of PPAs. They're completely out of support (excluding whatever the PPA maintainer _might_ give). | 08:47 |
| dyd | tomodachi: dunno, i was on website and it made me download the package | 08:47 |
| janedoe | ok, since I am being ignored, is there any chance that I can be read anyway and responded to? | 08:47 |
| babu | astraljava, i just want to update the openoffice to newer version....it's not relating to pdf | 08:48 |
| tomodachi | dyd: if you are using ubuntu and want flash, there is a better way! | 08:48 |
| tomodachi | dyd: http://www.liberiangeek.net/2011/03/install-adobe-flash-player-ubuntu-11-04-natty-narwhal/ | 08:49 |
| tomodachi | this should work | 08:49 |
| dyd | tomodachi: using apt-get? next time i'll use that :D | 08:49 |
| jacob_ | for ubuntu 10.10 | 08:49 |
| tomodachi | dyd: do it now instead of next time! | 08:49 |
| dyd | tomodachi: oh yea... i prefer command line :)) | 08:49 |
| === jacob_ is now known as Guest62130 | ||
| astraljava | babu: Right. Well, can't help with that, outside of giving the line: "Compile from sources". Haven't done it myself, so cannot support the operation. Good luck! | 08:49 |
| Guest62130 | can we get google desktop for ubuntu 10.10 | 08:49 |
| dyd | tomodachi: i already installed it, it's working! | 08:49 |
| tomodachi | ok | 08:49 |
| babu | i found a office suite named libreoffice in ubuntu 11.04....wat's the difference bn it and open office..has canonical switched ..or oracle renamed it | 08:49 |
| === Guest62130 is now known as Jake | ||
| dyd | babu: i think it was just renamed | 08:50 |
| Lasers | babu: We're going with LibreOffice. We already have it in 11.04 -- It's really same with OpenOffice except branding name and few little things. | 08:50 |
| viii | babu, open source forked the project since oracle has rights to openoffice | 08:50 |
| janedoe | alright, I c, thanks for nthn | 08:50 |
| astraljava | babu: LibreOffice is a port of OpenOffice, supported by a foundation. Separate from OpenOffice, though some degree of cooperation might be expected. Oracle owns OpenOffice nowadays. | 08:50 |
| Lasers | babu: Keeping it free, bro. :) | 08:51 |

| Noor_egy | hello , i resored my linux grab after i installed windows and now there is screen that show me the choices to choose from windows and linux but when i try to log to windows it gives me invaled signature | 08:53 |
| janedoe | hey, I have been thinking about about installing neorouter, however ubuntu gives me a notification about it being my risk installing it and that it could cause damage.. could anyone recommend doing it anyway? | 08:54 |
| szal | Noor_egy: you what your linux what? | 08:55 |
| Lasers | grub. | 08:55 |
| tomodachi | janedoe: what do you want? vpn? | 08:55 |
| janedoe | yes | 08:55 |
| tomodachi | between what? | 08:55 |
| szal | Noor_egy: you what your linux grub? | 08:56 |
| tomodachi | 2 computers? 2 sites? | 08:56 |
| Noor_egy | i was have ubuntu and installed windows rhen i tried to restore the linux grab to show ubuntu | 08:56 |
| janedoe | and the client as well | 08:56 |
| janedoe | one computer | 08:56 |
| Kus | Hello | 08:56 |
| tomodachi | janedoe: so its between two computers? what will you be running betweem those two computers? | 08:56 |
| babu | when updating open office,is installing from sources is the nly way to do...it just wasts my bandwith... | 08:56 |
| Noor_egy | now i have ubuntu and windows shown but when i try to login to windows it gives invalid signature | 08:56 |
| Kus | i have forgoten my encryted home passphrase | 08:57 |
| Kus | is there a way i can find it? i have loged in and it is auto encrypted, but need the passphrase for mountig it else where | 08:57 |
| Kus | can somebody help me? | 08:57 |
| janedoe | tomodachi: it is more of the fact that I wanna have access to my computer from another computer, though I read that I ned the vpn-server first.. or sth.. I am not good at thsi yet.. | 08:57 |
| janedoe | *need | 08:58 |
| janedoe | *this | 08:58 |
| Lasers | !encrypt | Kus | 08:58 |
| ubottu | Kus: For information on setting up encrypted private directories (8.10+) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory | 08:58 |
| tomodachi | janedoe: i use openvpn for my vpn connections. Its quite simple to set up and will give you what you want | 08:58 |
| tomodachi | janedoe: but if you only want filesharing access and maybe remote controll you dont really need vpn. You can use ssh port forwarding. Thats why im asking for specifics. | 08:58 |
| astraljava | Kus: Does this help? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory#Recovering Your Mount Passphrase | 08:58 |
| Lasers | Kus: If you didn't write it down.... This is what you wanted, right? [!#$#$Encrypted@#$##] | 08:59 |
| szal | babu: that depends on where you got OOo from in the first place | 08:59 |
| janedoe | tomodachi: oh really, that sounds cool.. I will try that one.. is it part of the apps on the software center or do I have to download it from the homepage? | 08:59 |
| tomodachi | both exists in software center | 08:59 |
| tomodachi | basically you can redirect ports through ssh so they become enctrypted through the ssh tunnel | 09:00 |
| babu | szal, it's already pre-installed in my ubuntu 10.10 | 09:00 |
| Kus | Lasers, so it isn't saved on the disk? | 09:00 |
| soulis77-SE | I can't get the sun Java install to work on Lucid. I have added the repository but still no go. Is there another way? | 09:00 |
| tomodachi | janedoe: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/PortForwarding | 09:00 |
| janedoe | tomodachi: kk, well I just wanna have administrative access and do whatever I wanna do ;) | 09:00 |
| Lasers | kusznir__: When you firstly set it up, I'm very confident there was a shortcut or dialog that prompt -- It tell you to write down the passphrase. | 09:01 |
| Lasers | Kus: ^^ | 09:01 |
| janedoe | tomodachi: well, thx so far.. | 09:01 |
| Lasers | Kus: It's on the disk. Where else would it go? :) | 09:01 |

| Noor_egy | i was have ubuntu and windowes and 2 days ago i renstalled windows so i was had to restore grab to show the ybuntu to log to i did restore it and now when i open my pc it show window to choose between ubuntu and windows but when i try to login to windows it gives me error invalid signature and windows dont work | 09:02 |
| vlt | Noor_egy: Sounds like a topic for #windows | 09:03 |
| Noor_egy | hmm | 09:03 |
| Noor_egy | its related to linux grab | 09:03 |
| Noor_egy | grub | 09:03 |
| szal | babu: the packaged version will likely stay the same throughout the life of 10.10.. if you want something newer, grab the native-packed binaries from openoffice.org or go for LibreOffice (either by PPA or their native-packed version -- please note that LO 3.4.1 is not yet considered stable for mission-critical use) | 09:03 |
| szal | babu: iow, no need to build from source | 09:04 |
| wh1zz0 | Sup guys | 09:04 |
| szal | Noor_egy: define 'invalid signature | 09:05 |
| szal | Noor_egy: iow, EXACT error message please | 09:06 |
| babu | szal, i'm afraid my qn is not reached to you....if i download native binaries from OO site, i have to download large size of package...instead if there is any patch for update, i can apply the patch to the existing version n update it... | 09:06 |
| szal | babu: no, there isn't | 09:06 |
| babu | szal, the patch size will be far less than original binary | 09:06 |
| szal | babu: afaik, *buntu doesn't have patches anyway | 09:07 |
| szal | babu: if you want something that supports delta packages, go for openSUSE or Fedora | 09:07 |
| Noor_egy1 | szal thats the error message Invalid Signature | 09:08 |
| Noor_egy1 | szal thats the error message Invalid Signature | 09:08 |
| babu | szal, if i downloaded for every release,its obviously waste my time and bandwith and space | 09:08 |
| szal | Noor_egy1: no need to repeat yourself.. and that message comes exactly where? | 09:09 |
| FxIII | i know that xrandr let you to rotate the screen, is there a way to rotate the touchpad axis accordingly | 09:09 |
| FxIII | ? | 09:09 |
| Noor_egy1 | szal aftel i choose to go to windows it dont log me to windows and gives me this error | 09:10 |
| babu | wat's the diff bn apt-get and aptitude...both are interface to package manager..which should to use | 09:11 |
| szal | Noor_egy1: please mind your words.. if it's on Windows _login_, i.e., after starting up Windows, it's not a *buntu or Grub problem -> ##windows then | 09:11 |
| Benkinooby | someone know a pdf viewer that can show annotations? | 09:11 |
| lilyfan9000 | Benkinooby: The official Adobe one can | 09:12 |
| lilyfan9000 | Benkinooby: http://get.adobe.com/uk/reader/ | 09:12 |
| dc5ala | Noor_egy1, from grub menu? You can try edit at the boot menu, press E to go into edit mode, then press E again on the line that says root (hd.... | 09:12 |
| Noor_egy1 | szal - > windows dont start its apear before windows start | 09:12 |
| Benkinooby | babu, aptitude is based on apt-get... but it has some nice features, that makes it more intelligent | 09:12 |
| OerHeks | babu aptitude is removed from 11.04 so i suggest apt-get | 09:12 |
| szal | !grub | Noor_egy1 - did you follow this? | 09:12 |
| ubottu | Noor_egy1 - did you follow this?: 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) | 09:12 |
| Benkinooby | babu, especially when it comes to cleaning up orhaned packages and resolving dependency problems | 09:12 |
| Noor_egy1 | yes szal | 09:13 |
| Benkinooby | babu, to me, aptitude is superior to apt-get | 09:13 |
| Noor_egy1 | i did | 09:13 |
| szal | lilyfan9000: no need to install from Adobe's website | 09:13 |
| babu | when we uploading a file in web, i read that it is first storing in tmp folder and after it is transferred...why is that | 09:14 |
| dc5ala | Noor_egy1, and delete the part after (hd, then press TAB and grub shows you available partitions, try to find the one you need and complete the line, e.g. (hd0,0) and press enter, then you can press B to boot | 09:14 |
| szal | Noor_egy1: iirc, the correct OS setup in Grub essentially boils down to 'sudo os-prober && sudo update-grub' | 09:15 |
| Noor_egy1 | dc5ala: plz again | 09:15 |
| Benkinooby | lilyfan9000, thank you... but apart from the adobe -i am not a fan of it... sorry should have mentioned before... it can't be that there is no open source pdf viewer with annotation support :( | 09:15 |

| corestorm | Just sucks because i paid $300 for this thing. | 09:56 |
| corestorm | and i can't use it | 09:56 |
| corestorm | for PPTP/L2TP/SSTP | 09:56 |
| tenX | i've run some flavours but its the easiest to setup | 09:56 |
| tenX | corestorm: pptp, no | 09:56 |
| ali_ | hello! | 09:56 |
| tenX | L2TP/IPSEC :D as a first try, NO | 09:57 |
| corestorm | To late lol | 09:57 |
| corestorm | i've already paid for it | 09:57 |
| corestorm | should i switch it out to open ? | 09:57 |
| ali_ | sorry, i installed xfce and now i wanna have remote desktop to it what should i do? | 09:57 |
| tenX | corestorm: it is very complex | 09:57 |
| tenX | corestorm: paid? so you dont have to set it up? | 09:57 |
| corestorm | strong-vpn.com | 09:57 |
| corestorm | or what ever | 09:57 |
| corestorm | I bought a 1 year client plan with them | 09:58 |
| corestorm | for PPTP/L2TP/SSTP | 09:58 |
| llutz | corestorm: do you have any UBUNTU support related thing to ask? if not, please respect the rules and stop it here | 09:58 |
| tenX | corestorm: well client setup is easy | 09:58 |
| corestorm | Yes, where can I download a dist of ubuntu ? | 09:58 |
| iceroot | !download | corestorm | 09:58 |
| ubottu | corestorm: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download !Natty, and help keeping the servers' load low! | 09:58 |
| corestorm | !downloads | 09:58 |
| corestorm | thanks. | 09:59 |
| ali_ | how can i have remote desktop from my xfce desktop? | 09:59 |
| tomodachi | corestorm: openvpn can be used for any distribution , and for windows | 09:59 |
| tenX | ali_: well call it via console | 09:59 |
| tenX | ali_: its called rdesktop | 09:59 |
| tenX | rdesktop -h will show you the options | 10:00 |
| ali_ | what do you mean? | 10:00 |
| ali_ | i wanna remote desktop from my home to my server | 10:00 |
| szal | ali_: does the server have a GUI? | 10:01 |
| ali_ | yeah | 10:01 |
| corestorm | ~# apt-get install openvpn | 10:01 |
| corestorm | E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) | 10:01 |
| corestorm | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 10:01 |
| corestorm | How do i get around this ? | 10:01 |
| tenX | ali_: i meeean... i meant... to quit | 10:01 |
| ali_ | ??? | 10:02 |
| CloudAche84 | did you sudo? | 10:02 |
| ali_ | i just have ssh access | 10:02 |
| szal | corestorm: close any other pkg management applications that may be running | 10:02 |
| ali_ | and that is root access | 10:03 |
| szal | corestorm: and yes, use sudo | 10:03 |
| janhaj | hello.. If i do dd if=/dev/sda3 of=/dev/sdb1.img , will it remove all files in sdb1 or not? | 10:03 |
| szal | janhaj: that won't likely work, because /dev/sdb1.img is most probably not a valid block device, let alone mount point | 10:04 |
| ali_ | szal: yes it support and i installed xfce envirment and i wanna have remote desktop | 10:04 |
| corestorm | package manager says "waiting for package manager lock" | 10:04 |
| corestorm | what ever that means ? | 10:04 |
| CloudAche84 | orestorm: close everything and start again | 10:05 |
| |OLLIE| | means you have a package manager open already. | 10:05 |
| janhaj | szal: so dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/media/data/backup.img ? (mountpoint is /media/data) | 10:05 |
| corestorm | did that | 10:05 |
| corestorm | keeps giving me the same errors | 10:05 |
| corestorm | it segfaulted then I opened it | 10:05 |
| CloudAche84 | are you in gui or at terminal? | 10:05 |
| corestorm | gui wont work | 10:06 |
| szal | janhaj: that looks more reasonable | 10:06 |
| corestorm | nore will apt-get | 10:06 |
| CloudAche84 | but you have closed the gui? | 10:06 |
| corestorm | yeah | 10:06 |
| babu | which is the better theme .. i want to change my current theme ambiance.. | 10:06 |
| CloudAche84 | what does ls /var/lib/dpkg/lock show? | 10:07 |
| Byob | hey | 10:07 |
| janhaj | szal: and what the other files in /media/data? Will it remains there? | 10:07 |
| corestorm | just says /var/lib/dpkg/lock | 10:08 |
| |OLLIE| | if you're certain that you have closed -all- instances of package managers (gui, and cli) then just run: sudo dpkg --configure -a | 10:08 |
| |OLLIE| | and then try the apt-get again | 10:08 |
| corestorm | alright | 10:08 |
| |OLLIE| | im pretty sure that dpkg will clear the lock. | 10:08 |
| corestorm | sudo dpkg --configure -a | 10:08 |
| corestorm | dpkg: status database area is locked by another process | 10:08 |
| |OLLIE| | haha dammit | 10:09 |
| barberan | I've got 11.04. Everything is fine. I can not invent something interesting. Boring day. What should I think of ? | 10:09 |
| corestorm | lol | 10:09 |
| babu | i added some ppa's earlier...how do i know waht are the ppa's i added..n to remove them | 10:09 |
| CloudAche84 | try this instead cat /var/lib/dpkg/lock | 10:11 |
| josvuk | Hello, How to decode aprs data | 10:11 |
| janhaj | If I do dd if=/dev/sda3 of=/media/data/backup.img (/media/data is mountpoint), will it remove other files in /media/data or not? Thanks | 10:11 |
| szal | janhaj: why should it? | 10:12 |
| Lasers | janhaj: You shouldn't be on the active system if you're backing up your active system, | 10:12 |
| corestorm | Cloud | 10:13 |
| corestorm | shows nothing when i cat it | 10:13 |
| corestorm | nothing in the file | 10:13 |
| wh1zz0 | Hmm, I still can't find a replacement for DW, Aptana is cool but not good enough.. Anyone? | 10:13 |
| janhaj | szal: I don't know, so I rather ask.. | 10:13 |
| wh1zz0 | Because of speed I'd love to have something with a not just code view but design view | 10:13 |
| janhaj | Lasers: I know, I have two installation of Linux.. :) | 10:13 |
| marsfligth | how set permission 777 to all sudirs and file. i trier with 'chmod -R' but didn't worked for me | 10:14 |
| wh1zz0 | Anyone? | 10:14 |
| marsfligth | sorry *tried* | 10:14 |
| trinity9000 | Are you the owner of the files? You might need to use chown first | 10:15 |
| CloudAche84 | try sudo -i | 10:15 |
| CloudAche84 | will drop you to root | 10:15 |
| CloudAche84 | then cat again | 10:15 |
| CloudAche84 | and try apt-install again | 10:15 |
| trinity9000 | wh1zz0: I like NetBeans, but it doesn't have a design view (other than previewing bits of CSS) | 10:15 |
| SwedeMike | marsfligth: "didn't work" is not a helpful description of what went wrong. What really happened? | 10:16 |
| marsfligth | no, was 'root', i did become 'root' and i tried to change, but only the top folder take the correct permisiion | 10:16 |
| corestorm | cat /var/lib/dkpg/lock | 10:16 |
| corestorm | cat: /var/lib/dkpg/lock: No such file or directory | 10:16 |
| corestorm | now | 10:16 |
| SwedeMike | marsfligth: "chmod -R 777 ." is the command you used? | 10:17 |
| corestorm | # apt-get install openvpn | 10:17 |
| corestorm | E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) | 10:17 |
| corestorm | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 10:17 |
| corestorm | argh | 10:17 |
| Lasers | corestorm: sudo | 10:17 |
| marsfligth | SwedeMike: yes, i also tried with others options | 10:18 |
| Lasers | Oh you're on ...root. | 10:18 |
| |OLLIE| | he's running as root, hence the # | 10:18 |
| corestorm | same errors | 10:18 |
| |OLLIE| | corestorm: check to see if there is any hidden/defunct processes running. | 10:18 |
| |OLLIE| | ps ax|grep -e "synaptic\|apt-get\|aptitude"|grep -v grep | 10:18 |
| |OLLIE| | something like that should show if any of them 3 are running | 10:18 |
| |OLLIE| | if nothing is returned, then nothing is running | 10:19 |
| marsfligth | sorry SwedeMike, i saw just now a diff. i used '"chmod -R 0777 /path/' | 10:19 |
| corestorm | gksudo might work | 10:20 |
| |OLLIE| | if something is returned, then kill {pid} it. (the pid being the first number on the line it returned) | 10:20 |
| corestorm | and nothing returned | 10:20 |
| corestorm | i already ran ps -aux | 10:20 |
| SwedeMike | marsfligth: try /path, not /path/, shouldn't matter, but that should work anyway. | 10:20 |
| corestorm | and went through every pid | 10:20 |
| |OLLIE| | strange. i guess you will just need to remove the lock manually. | 10:20 |
| |OLLIE| | i've never tried it before, but it -should- be as simple as rm'ing the lock file.. but dont quote me on that, never tried it | 10:21 |
| marsfligth | SwedeMike: ok, i try | 10:21 |
| corestorm | i'll check it out | 10:21 |
| corestorm | worst care | 10:21 |
| corestorm | case | 10:21 |
| corestorm | I gotta reinstall | 10:21 |
| corestorm | or something lol | 10:21 |
| |OLLIE| | lol no, thats overkill.. | 10:21 |
| corestorm | damn | 10:22 |
| |OLLIE| | oh, idea.. use lsof to see what has the lock file open. | 10:23 |
| wh1zz0 | trinity9000: Hmm thanks | 10:23 |

| wh1zz0 | I just noticed NVu, has anyone tried this? | 10:23 |
| |OLLIE| | lol | 10:23 |
| trinity9000 | wh1zz0: I used it years ago. It hasn't changed much since it was part of the Mozilla suite. It's ok with tabular layout, but probably won't behave nicely with <div> tags and CSS layout. | 10:25 |
| Deesl | hello | 10:25 |
| Deesl | In my network consisting of a few Gentoo and Ubuntu hosts, bit.ly does not open only on Ubuntu boxes | 10:26 |
| Deesl | where could I start troubleshooting | 10:26 |
| marsfligth | SwedeMike: always the same, doesn't work recursively, works only on top folder | 10:27 |
| SwedeMike | marsfligth: and doesn't give any error message? | 10:28 |
| wh1zz0 | Whew | 10:28 |
| marsfligth | no at all | 10:28 |
| wh1zz0 | :/ | 10:28 |
| marsfligth | so strange | 10:28 |
| hrobjartur | same Q here as on Kubuntu | 10:28 |
| marsfligth | i try again with nautilus | 10:28 |
| hrobjartur | anybody got experience with lm-sensors and AMD Phenom II x4 | 10:29 |
| hrobjartur | ? | 10:29 |
| hrobjartur | well or anybody using Phenom II x4? | 10:29 |
| SwedeMike | marsfligth: well, I just tried and creating a file b/b/b and doing chmod -R 777 b works just fine, all dirs and files recursively is changed to 777 | 10:29 |
| hrobjartur | I want to figure out if my CPU temp readings are getting through ok | 10:29 |
| hrobjartur | here i my lm-sensors output, http://pastebin.com/3A2QCytj | 10:30 |
| hrobjartur | my guess would be that the 'diode' sensor is the CPU temp? is that correct? if so how does sensors know it is a diode sensor? | 10:30 |
| marsfligth | SwedeMike: maybe i have a shell problem, few day a go i installed 'zsh' shell but im not using at the moment. now i tri with Kde console | 10:31 |
| somsip | hrobjartur: Phenom II X4 955 here. No probs | 10:32 |
| hrobjartur | somsip: ok, great... you mean you dont have lm-sensors set up? | 10:34 |
| hrobjartur | somsip: I followed this one https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto | 10:35 |
| hrobjartur | somsip: just sudo apt-get install lm-sensors | 10:35 |
| hrobjartur | somsip: and then the rest of that tutorial | 10:36 |
| thunder1212 | hi | 10:36 |
| thunder1212 | i want to search for all files that contain the firefox from command line and delete each one from command line in one go | 10:36 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: must be some find command. | 10:37 |
| thunder1212 | i want to search for all files that contains the word "firefox" , from command line and delete each one from command line in one go | 10:37 |
| somsip | hrobjartur: Found `ITE IT8718F Super IO Sensors' | 10:38 |
| AcidRain | lol@evolution | 10:38 |
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, i hav tried find, it doesn't work | 10:38 |
| AcidRain | evolution will sarcastically taunt you for not having a subject line for a message you send. like you dont know what it is. | 10:39 |
| Lasers | thunder1212: "sudo updatedb && locate firefox" | 10:39 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: u want all files that conaint the text firefox... not contain firefox in its name, right? | 10:39 |
| Slart | thunder1212: I don't think find searches inside files.. just filenames iirc... grep sounds like the tool to use | 10:39 |
| Lasers | thunder1212: What is it that you're really trying to do? | 10:39 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: I think a combination of find an grep in -exec | 10:39 |
| AcidRain | hes tryin to use hax! | 10:39 |
| Slart | Lasers: doesn't that just search the path where ubuntu looks for binaries? | 10:40 |
| thunder1212 | i want file with filename firefox | 10:40 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: also there are versions of find with -grep I recall | 10:40 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: but not this one | 10:40 |
| Mandrew | what did i kill if i cant right click on the desktop to get up that menu? i have installed the elementary- nautilius, could that be the problem? | 10:40 |
| somsip | hrobjartur: I'm not looking to add anything into my system I won't use, so can't help you | 10:40 |
| Lasers | Slart: Dunno. He's being vague. I'm being vague. | 10:41 |
| Slart | Lasers: =) | 10:41 |
| hrobjartur | somsip: alright, no sweat :) | 10:41 |
| Slart | thunder1212: this looks promising http://fixunix.com/unix/537045-grep-string-delete-files-containing-string.html | 10:42 |
| thunder1212 | Lasers, i want to delete all files related to firefox | 10:42 |
| Slart | thunder1212: but please be careful.. find together with rm can get ugly if you end up doing something wrong | 10:42 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: try find / -type f -exec grep -l "IP" {} \; | 10:42 |
| SwedeMike | thunder1212: related in what way? | 10:42 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: well try "find /yourstartdir/ -type f -exec grep -l "firefox" {} \; | 10:43 |
| artem | hello | 10:43 |
| artem | есть русские? | 10:43 |
| Slart | !ru | artem | 10:43 |
| ubottu | artem: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke | 10:43 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: this will list all files that contain firefox under your /yourstartdir/ | 10:43 |
| thunder1212 | SwedeMike, i want to delete firefox and remove any trace of firefox that exist on my system | 10:43 |
| Lasers | thunder1212: Try "sudo dpkg -L $PACKAGE" | 10:43 |
| Lasers | thunder1212: It'll list all files for the said package. | 10:43 |
| SwedeMike | thunder1212: dpkg --remove <package> and go in ~/.mozilla and delete the firefox directory. | 10:44 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: if you then want to delete them... then I think find /yourstartdir/ -type f -delete -exec grep -l "firefox" {} \; | 10:44 |
| Lasers | SwedeMike: God. That might be the thing he is trying to remove.... ~/.mozilla | 10:44 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: be carefule with the delete command... try it first out without delete please! | 10:44 |
| SwedeMike | Lasers: yes. this is a typical example of the user asking for one thing instead of stating the high level goal. | 10:44 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: ehm... sorry now I see what you actually want to do... | 10:45 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: I wouldnt delete all files that mention firefox on you computer... you never know if some other files mention firefox!! | 10:46 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: plus... I doubt all firefox files actually mention firefox in ascii... some are simple binaries...! | 10:46 |
| tyrone | anyone know how to connect an ubuntu machine to a windows network | 10:46 |
| Slart | !samba | tyrone, if this is what you want | 10:47 |
| ubottu | tyrone, if this is what you want: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 10:47 |
| trinity9000 | tyrone: Samba and winbind | 10:47 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: why are you so worried that there might be some remnant firefox related files lying around? | 10:48 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: your problem is probably something altgether different than your suggested cure | 10:48 |
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, ok tell me to just see all the files that has firefox in its name | 10:49 |
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, with the location | 10:49 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: find / -type f -name "*firefox*" | 10:50 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: sorry... I meant find / -type f -iname "*firefox*" | 10:52 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: -iname NOT -name | 10:52 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: do you also want to find folders with this name? | 10:53 |
| bk | is TimeVault a good backup tool for Ubuntu? Or is there something newer/better? | 10:53 |
| bk | I am looking for an alternative to Time Machine for Linux | 10:53 |
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, yes | 10:53 |
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, whats d diff between name and iname | 10:53 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: then simply find / -iname "*firefox*" | 10:53 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: -name looks for case sensitive.... -iname looks case in-sensitive | 10:54 |
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, ok :) | 10:54 |
| marsfligth | SwedeMike: finally i found a solution, the only working for me. i switched to 'zsh' shell, then i used this syntax 'sudo chmod --recursive ugoa=rwx .' i tried with many other options/synax but my maverick 64 us-en recognize only tis ... incredible isnt'it? | 10:54 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: with -iname you can find both blablaFirefox and blablaFirEFox... etc | 10:54 |
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, ok now can i pipe rm command and remove all the files and directories | 10:55 |
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, yes , i got it | 10:55 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: well, I expect you can simply add the switch -delete to your find | 10:55 |
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, ok am trying | 10:55 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: you can play around with it.... touch some files and mkdir in some folder.... be careful not to run find / with -delete until you are sure its finding the right stuff! | 10:56 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: oh and also dont run it with sudo until ur ready :) | 10:57 |
| === krups_v2 is now known as krups | ||
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, am using it with sudo, then only it displays all files | 10:58 |
| barberan | I've got much folders one in one... mess hierarchy. Somewhere, there is a file *.py. How do I find the location of the file in such a mess-organized folders ? | 10:58 |
| janedoe | ok, I wanna have access to my computer administratively from anywhere and I heard of neorouter. though I don't wanna get infected of course, so can anyone recommend it? | 10:58 |
| hrobjartur | barberan: ask thunder1212 | 10:59 |
| trinity9000 | barberan: use the find command | 10:59 |
| |OLLIE| | just make sure that the -delete option is AFTER the -name option.. or it'll delete everything. | 10:59 |
| thunder1212 | barberan, just type this in ur terminal.. find / -iname "*.py" | 11:00 |
| ActionParsnip | thunder1212: that'l give a LOT of results | 11:00 |
| thunder1212 | ActionParsnip, i want complete details | 11:01 |
| ActionParsnip | barberan: instead of / in thunder1212's suggestion, use the highest folder you can, if that is / then so be it | 11:01 |
| ActionParsnip | thunder1212: makes sense | 11:01 |
| ActionParsnip | janedoe: could use ssh | 11:01 |
| barberan | ooooh! I see I see, thank you guys | 11:02 |
| thunder1212 | ActionParsnip, yes ;) | 11:02 |
| janedoe | yeah I heard that, but I also heard that it is only to have access for certain things, I wanna have the full package ;) | 11:02 |
| ActionParsnip | janedoe: what do you need access to exactly? | 11:02 |
| hrobjartur | ActionParsnip: doesnt the gnome web-browser allow you to run find also? maybe easier for beginners | 11:03 |
| ActionParsnip | hrobjartur: never used it, so cannot comment on it | 11:03 |
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, where exactly should i use the switch -delete | 11:03 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: be super carful | 11:03 |
| janedoe | to the entire bandwidth of my computer, in order to control all my files and stuff.. | 11:03 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: dont add it before -name or before -exec | 11:04 |
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, ok | 11:04 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: like |OLLIE| said | 11:04 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: find / -iname "*firefox*" -delete | 11:04 |
| ActionParsnip | janedoe: yes, you can control files via ssh | 11:04 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: however... I think this is crazy! | 11:04 |
| ActionParsnip | janedoe: it will have as much bandwidth as the system normally has | 11:04 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: I wouldnt do it... but if you really want to | 11:04 |
| thunder1212 | hrobjartur, thanks ;) | 11:04 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: you might not be able to restart even | 11:05 |
| janedoe | ActionParsnip: really? well that is cool, then I'm a really try that one. thx alot :) | 11:05 |
| ActionParsnip | janedoe: no worries. If you conect with: ssh -X user@server you can lauch graphical apps and they will show in the client system | 11:05 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: the thing is... like I said before.... there are all sorts of files that might contain firefox... even in their names... Im not sure this is safe... I | 11:06 |
| hrobjartur | thunder1212: Im not willing to say at least that "sudo find / -iname "*firefox*" " is safe | 11:06 |
| learn | Any body know any good encode/decode tool?(base64, url decode...)? | 11:06 |
| hrobjartur | is sudo find / -iname "*firefox*" -delete safe, anybody?? | 11:07 |
| ActionParsnip | hrobjartur: if you uninstall the firefox packages, its a better idea | 11:07 |
| trinity9000 | learn: Could use PHP for those functions | 11:07 |
| janedoe | ActionParsnip: I am completely new to ubuntu so I am not sure if you are talking about a terminal or if that will just bring me to sth.. though I guess I can make it, I made it till here, so I am positive I am goanna make it.. otherwise I will be back (in the words of the terminator ;) ) | 11:08 |
| |OLLIE| | its safe, if you want all files with firefox in deleted.. but you should really dump the list of files to a file and read through it to make sure that there is no surprises. | 11:08 |
| SwedeMike | hrobjartur / thunder1212: you should just drop this line of thinking totally, if you want to delete firefox then you remove the packages and the files in the . dir in the home dir, doing system-wide searches and deleing files basically at random is not safe. | 11:08 |
| ActionParsnip | janedoe: its a terminal command, its one way to connect to a server via ssh | 11:08 |
| learn | trinity9000: just need a tool to do a encode/decode on base64, url, hex... | 11:09 |
| janedoe | ActionParsnip: yeah but first I have to install the ssh-thing right (know that sounds amateurish) | 11:10 |
| janedoe | ? | 11:10 |
| ActionParsnip | janedoe: on the server, yes. On ubuntu clients, no | 11:10 |
| === alakoo_ is now known as alakoo | ||
| trinity9000 | learn: There's a standard Linux program for base64 I think, but not for the rest. Best bet is using the standard library of some programming language like PHP, Java, Perl etc. | 11:10 |
| janedoe | ActionParsnip: now I am overstrained :/ well I guess, I will read some stuff.. :/ | 11:11 |
| ActionParsnip | janedoe: the server side needs openssh-server installing. The client is already part of a default install | 11:11 |
| ActionParsnip | trinity9000: http://www.motobit.com/util/base64-decoder-encoder.asp | 11:11 |
| janedoe | ActionParsnip: alright, but do I need that server stuff? | 11:12 |
| dc5ala | learn, you probably have to use a programming/scripting language of your choice (perl, php, ruby, ...) | 11:12 |
| learn | ActionParsnip: hi, have any console base tool, if dont have internet than unable to decode/encode? | 11:13 |

| obeyance | I have one question, for now. | 11:54 |
| ParkerR | Shoot | 11:54 |
| dean | ParkerR, I installed Kubuntu yesterday and before I did anything I installed Synaptic and then tried to install Kubuntu Restricted extras and it froze at the end and messed up my installation? | 11:54 |
| ActionParsnip | dean: boot to root recovery mode and run: sudo apt-get -f install | 11:55 |
| obeyance | When i scroll on web pages and folders with more than a page of files on it, its jerky/choppy. | 11:55 |
| dean | ActionParsnip, What does that do if you don't mind me asking? | 11:55 |
| ParkerR | OK. First. Why is that a question? dean. Did it freeze it or not? | 11:55 |
| dean | ParkerR, Yeah it froze | 11:55 |
| obeyance | I have an Nvidia 7900GS KO, and i have the (Recommended) drivers option selected. | 11:55 |

| dean | ActionParsnip, Oh ok cool thanks for that. Is there any known issues with synaptic compatibility with Kubuntu? | 11:56 |
| coz_ | obeyance, open ccsm.. click on the OPenGL plugin to get into it's settings and disable "Sync To VBlank" then see if it is still as choppy | 11:56 |
| ParkerR | coz_, I thought ccsm was an extra download? | 11:57 |
| obeyance | Me too, for Compiz. | 11:57 |
| coz_ | ParkerR, it is ,, but necessary if any real changes are to be made in the setting for compiz | 11:57 |

| obeyance | I dont see where to go. | 11:58 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 776435 in unity (Ubuntu) "Window maximizes on the wrong workspace" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/776435 | 12:07 |
| obeyance | So when i get 1104 installed all the way, what do you think the issue is? | 12:09 |
| obeyance | It did it on 9.10, 10.4, and now 10.10. | 12:09 |
| szal | obeyance: what did? | 12:09 |
| obeyance | Choppy scrolling of web pages and other scrolling things. | 12:10 |
| obeyance | Not menues though. | 12:10 |
| bazhang | Guest72146, use classic then | 12:10 |
| Guest72146 | Ok | 12:10 |
| obeyance | Just web pages and folders. | 12:10 |
| bazhang | !classic | Guest72146 | 12:10 |

| BluesKaj | kim_, do you m ean someone installed ubuntu in windows ? That would be what is called a wubi install or perhaps VMware ? | 12:10 |
| ActionParsnip | obeyance: what browser do you use? | 12:10 |
| obeyance | Firefox. | 12:11 |
| ActionParsnip | obeyance: tried a different browser? | 12:11 |
| obeyance | But it does it in folders too. | 12:11 |

| shomon | hi, where is a good place to find out how to convert a wav to an mp3 in ubuntu, just on the command line? | 12:15 |
| ubottu | Chat1325: The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are English only. For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList | 12:15 |
| obeyance | Which its about 1/5th of the way downloading. | 12:15 |
| coz_ | shomon, use ffmpeg | 12:15 |
| shomon | ok thanks | 12:15 |
| obeyance | I could stop now and have no issues. | 12:15 |
| coz_ | shomon, ffmpeg -i name of wav nameof.mp3 | 12:15 |

| bluefrost | So... does unity have a place to put my gnome-eyes yet? | 12:16 |
| szal | Chat1325: other than that, youre encoding is broken | 12:16 |
| shomon | c ool, thanks coz_ downloading now :) | 12:16 |
| obeyance | szal: Its a PCIE card. | 12:16 |
| coz_ | shomon, t his also works for video conversions as well same command ffmpeg -i etc etc | 12:16 |
| obeyance | 256MB GPU putting out 20 pipelines. | 12:16 |
| shomon | coz_, used to be much more haphazard looking process using rec and messing with audio settings... | 12:16 |
| coz_ | shomon, however if you want more control with ffmpeg,, you may want to either go online and research it's options and various command combinations or just read the m an page | 12:17 |
| shomon | yeah sure, will do | 12:17 |
| szal | obeyance: anyhoo, GF7 isn't exactly the fanciest gfx card out there; for better performance you should look for a GF8 or newer (better hardware acceleration support) | 12:17 |
| obeyance | My PC is more than adiquite to run basic web pages even with the most bloated OS. | 12:17 |
| BluesKaj | kim_, ubuntu is not an app that installs in windows , it's an operating system which may have deleted your windows data and operating system ,if you chose to install it there | 12:17 |
| coz_ | obeyance, your system should run 11.04 fairly well | 12:17 |
| obeyance | szal, the next step up from a 7900GS KO is an 8800GTX | 12:18 |
| szal | obeyance: otoh, I have no problems w/ scrolling on my old secondary machine (single-core AMD, GeForce FX 5900XT) | 12:18 |
| obeyance | But i dont have any money to buy any hardware... so im stuck with my machine which plays what i want to play just fine. | 12:18 |
| szal | obeyance: so wait for your upgrade to finish & install nvidia driver | 12:19 |
| obeyance | Im sure its just a configuration issue. | 12:19 |
| gere | I have installed gparted to desktop | 12:19 |

| dukepukem | hey guys. I have a question. I have a computer set up a windows and ubuntu parition. I want to overwrite my ubuntu partion with a fresh install. Will I have to restore my MBR? | 12:19 |
| coz_ | obeyance, ah.... you downloaded them from nvidia? | 12:19 |
| ActionParsnip | obeyance: I use a geforce 6150 onboard and it runs fine. What is the system intended for? | 12:19 |
| szal | dukepukem: no | 12:20 |
| shomon | do I need a specific library or apt package to get ffmpeg to work with mp3s? the man page talks about a .configure option to enable it... | 12:20 |
| Mr | how can install google talk and skype to my compter? | 12:20 |
| dukepukem | szal thanks | 12:20 |
| coz_ | shomon, I dont believe so ,, did you try that command to convert it? | 12:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Mr: skype can be downloaded from the skype website | 12:20 |
| shomon | yes | 12:20 |
| Tainlorn | hi all, ive just noticed this cron job on my ubuntu VPS, can anyone tell me ehat its doing? :[ -x /usr/lib/php5/maxlifetime ] && [ -d /var/lib/php5 ] && find /var/lib/php5/ -type f -cmin +$(/usr/lib/php5/maxlifetime) -print0 | xargs -n 200 -r -0 rm | 12:20 |

| aetas | dukepukem, just dont accidentally tell it it can format it, which it will ask during install | 12:20 |
| coz_ | shomon, also did you install the ubuntu-restricted-extras? | 12:20 |
| kim_ | Ok, I have a *wubi* install of ubuntu. Where is wubi keeking it's files? (I've checked the wubi faq, but it wasn't clear on that) | 12:20 |
| kim_ | keeping | 12:21 |
| Mr | what about google talk? | 12:21 |
| shomon | ah, no I didn't. will have a look.. | 12:21 |
| szal | ActionParsnip, shomon: Skype is in the Partner PPA, it just needs to be enabled | 12:21 |
| coz_ | shomon, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 12:21 |
| ActionParsnip | szal: true enough | 12:21 |
| CloudAche84 | asked earlier but has anyone installed ubuntu to iscsi root with preseed file? | 12:21 |

| dukepukem | aetas tell it not to format the whole drive or just the partition? | 12:21 |
| coz_ | obeyance, ok ,, you may have to reinstall them after the upgrade | 12:21 |
| coz_ | obeyance, hopefully not but still I would wait | 12:22 |

| obeyance | From 200+ to 20. | 12:24 |
| coz_ | obeyance, well the cube is definitly going to take up resources however that does sound a bit excessive | 12:24 |
| Mr | Hello jamshid | 12:25 |
| obeyance | Yeah, to me too. Thats why i mentioned it. | 12:25 |
| ActionParsnip | obeyance: which driver is the nvidia chip using? | 12:25 |
| kim_ | ok found it, wubi stores files in the normal home directory for windows users | 12:25 |
| saikat | can anyone help me to find any contact info of partnership on ubuntu? | 12:25 |

| obeyance | ActionParsnip, Its a PCI Express card. | 12:32 |

| coz_ | ooo | 12:32 |
| obeyance | You think its not set correctly or something? | 12:32 |
| coz_ | obeyance, well for pcie that seems a bit slow | 12:32 |
| gere | so how can i create partion after I install gparted.....??? | 12:32 |
| ActionParsnip | obeyance: doesn't sem that way, seems to think it's a pci card | 12:32 |
| dr-willis | gere: run gparted and use it.. clarify the problem | 12:32 |
| szal | ActionParsnip: interesting indeed, mine says '33 MHz' as well (PCIe) | 12:32 |

| szal | ActionParsnip: such is life, and it's getting sucher and sucher ;) | 12:34 |

| dr-willis | gparted may need to be ran from a live cd for some tasks | 12:34 |
| obeyance | Have any of you guys dealt with Lucid Puppy? | 12:34 |
| coz_ | obeyance, I have not | 12:34 |
| ActionParsnip | obeyance: indeed | 12:34 |
| szal | obeyance: if that's a derivative of Puppy Linux, it's off-topic here | 12:35 |
| ActionParsnip | szal: it can use ubuntu repos, its a strange hound indeed | 12:35 |
| obeyance | I have a laptop that doesnt have a working hard drive and i wanted to be able to use it. I was thinking about getting a small distro and installing it on my 2g USB flash drive but it says i need a windows computer to do conversion? | 12:35 |
| dr-willis | obeyance: see the puppylinux channel | 12:35 |
| szal | obeyance: conversion? | 12:35 |
| obeyance | Lucid puppy is a cross between Ubuntu 10.04 and Puppy. | 12:36 |
| ActionParsnip | obeyance: puppy will be great then, or you can use xpud ;) | 12:36 |
| thunder1212 | hi | 12:36 |
| szal | obeyance: Tiny Core (10 MB) | 12:36 |
| obeyance | "# Windows PC (XP/VIsta/7) to perform the conversion | 12:36 |
| obeyance | " | 12:36 |
| dr-willis | obeyance: you nan do a normal install to a 8gb drive and it should work ok. | 12:36 |
| ActionParsnip | obeyance: any small size diro will fit. If you can get an 8Gb SD, you can run a full Ubuntu with ease | 12:36 |
| obeyance | I dont have any money =( | 12:37 |
| dr-willis | a 4gb is useable. barely | 12:37 |
| lihelin | hi | 12:37 |
| obeyance | Or... If i could install on my USB external... | 12:37 |
| obeyance | I have a 300GB WD mybook, but it might not work on it. | 12:37 |
| dr-willis | 4gb usb $5 here i saw | 12:37 |
| lihelin | nobody there? | 12:37 |
| * szal bought a 16 GB USB pen earlier this year for like €15 | 12:37 | |
| dr-willis | external usb hds work fine for me | 12:37 |
| qin | lihelin: nobody left, he will be back. | 12:38 |
| thunder1212 | i ran this command find / -delete -iname "*firefox*" and now my system does not boot and gives grub rescue error | 12:38 |
| thunder1212 | i just want to save my data | 12:38 |
| obeyance | dr-willis, for installing and booted from? | 12:38 |
| dr-willis | be suru grub gets installed to the usnhd | 12:38 |
| szal | still have to check how live or installed USB system works here w/ a CF card; my 8 GB CF is lying around unused atm | 12:38 |
| dr-willis | obeyance: yes | 12:38 |
| szal | but I think I'll wait w/ that until I have a new card reader | 12:39 |
| obeyance | Hm | 12:39 |
| obeyance | What about it being NTFS? | 12:39 |
| Slart | are there any gotchas with sharing an xfs volume over nfs? | 12:39 |
| lihelin | ntfs is not good for linux | 12:39 |
| dr-willis | you dont install to a ntfs filesystem | 12:39 |
| lihelin | yes,you should use fat32 | 12:40 |
| dr-willis | you make normal linux partitions same as for a internal hd | 12:40 |
| obeyance | Then i cant install to that HDD | 12:40 |
| dr-willis | repartition it... | 12:40 |
| obeyance | Cause its formatted for windows use under NTFS because Fat32 only allows for 4gig transfers | 12:40 |
| obeyance | Its my back up drive and i put large amounts at a time on it so i cant change it to less =\ | 12:40 |
| dr-willis | you dont do a normal install to ntfs either... | 12:40 |
| ActionParsnip | obeyance: you'd want a persistant install which needs a bit more work | 12:41 |
| obeyance | Right, which was why i had slimmed down the choices to this one distro. Its small so i could install on the 2g USB flash and its light so it will run well off what the laptop has on board. | 12:42 |
| dr-willis | your backup drive really should be kept someplace safe.. not used as an daily os drive... | 12:42 |
| dan__ | hi dual boot ubuntu and windows and windows wont boot so im going to have to reinstall it. i have had GRUB stop working after doing this before but am i right in thinking that if its on the linux partition it shouldnt be damaged? | 12:42 |
| dr-willis | with tiny core linux you can boot from flash and keep the files on an internal fat32/ntfs disk i think | 12:43 |
| obeyance | Its just... stuff. There is nothing sensitive, expencive or anything that i cant get again on it. | 12:43 |
| dr-willis | !fixgrub | 12:43 |
| ubottu | 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) | 12:43 |
| obeyance | I use it for transfering data from one computer to another and to save data if an OS fails. | 12:43 |
| thunder1212 | this is my partition scheme.. /home / and swap | 12:44 |
| obeyance | Which, that has been years ago that i had to save data, at least till 2 weeks ago. | 12:44 |
| dr-willis | dan__: if you got a spare flash drive you can install grub to it.. make sure it boots the flash to your system, and use that to repair grub later. | 12:44 |
| obeyance | Luckily i still had my Ubuntu 9.10 LiveCD | 12:44 |
| dan__ | thats another thing. i installed 11.04 clean yet grub-install -v tells me im running GRUB 0.97 | 12:44 |
| gskill | out of gdm!!! the system starts on console mode | 12:45 |
| gskill | :( | 12:45 |
| dr-willis | try startx gskill | 12:46 |
| dan__ | i think with my setup the ubuntu disk boots first so why would grub and my ability to boot ubuntu be affected? | 12:46 |
| gskill | dr-willis, Fatal server error: no screens found | 12:47 |
| spreetzer | can somebody help me with a permission problem? I have a user named passenger, which is in the www-data group. i have a directory /var/www which is owned by www-data, when i log in as passenger and try to chmod this directory i get permission denied? i am kinda new to this and tought that if a user is in a group he can do whatever he wants on a directory owned by the group this user is in... | 12:47 |
| dr-willis | windows may overwrite it. you could unplug the hd to be sure | 12:47 |
| dr-willis | gskill: you got some x issues then | 12:47 |
| llutz | spreetzer: only owner or root can do | 12:47 |
| gskill | dr-willis, yeah.... I just changed my login screen | 12:48 |
| spreetzer | so passenger is in www-data, /var/www is owned by www-data. How do i get passenger user to be able to chmod this directory? | 12:48 |
| dr-willis | gskill: changed how | 12:48 |
| dan__ | thats probably a good idea. grub should think its the same as before. thanks for the help | 12:48 |
| llutz | spreetzer: you cannot unless you make him owner of that dir | 12:49 |
| gskill | with cp dr-willis | 12:49 |
| spreetzer | then i don't understand the use of groups? somebody told me, put users in www-data, let www-data own /var/www so all users in that directory have access to that directory :S | 12:49 |
| [Joose] | Ubuntu 11.04 uses GNOME v3 right? | 12:49 |
| oal | There are lots of small back dots (5x5 to 10x10) pixels flashing on and off in the top right corner of my screen. Is my graphics card dying? | 12:49 |
| llutz | spreetzer: having access to something and having the right to chmod/chown are different things. | 12:50 |
| spreetzer | ok, well maybe you can tell me, i want all users in www-data to have read/write access to /var/www, what should i do? | 12:50 |
| llutz | spreetzer: chmod g+w on all dirs inside /var/www | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | oal: does it happen in all OSes? | 12:52 |
| llutz | spreetzer: find /var/www -type d |xargs chmod g+w as root | 12:53 |
| [Joose] | Will I have any problems if I switch from GNOME3 to Gnome Classic? i.e. lost files, lost programs, any incompatibilites. Will I have the option to switch back if I don't like it? | 12:53 |
| oal | ActionParsnip: I only have Ubuntu, so I can't test it with windows | 12:53 |
| gskill | dr-willis, I just change the wallpaper of my login screen... just that... with the terminal, by using the cp command | 12:53 |
| spreetzer | llutz: that command didn't return anything, no errors, but still when i login as passenger user and try to chmod i still get 'operation not permitted' | 12:54 |
| llutz | spreetzer: you cannot unless you make him owner of that dir | 12:54 |
| spreetzer | but what if i have 2 users in www-data, should i both be owner of that dir? | 12:55 |
| jonathon_ | Anyone here got the link to fix the headphone port for laptops? I'm havin trouble finding it | 12:55 |
| llutz | spreetzer: having access to something and having the right to chmod/chown are different things. your user can read/write/remove files inside /var/www if hes groupmember, but he CANNOT chown/chmod | 12:55 |
| llutz | spreetzer: and tbh, why should the group chown/chmod things there? | 12:55 |
| CaT_MaN | hello all, Does someone know how to set time to wait for snmpwalk command ? | 12:56 |
| obeyance | K, thank you guys for being nice and helpful. Im going to take a power nap while this finishes up and ill be back to try and figure out this graphics issue. | 12:56 |
| spreetzer | llutz: that's what capistrano does after a deploy | 12:56 |
| llutz | spreetzer: you dont want your webserver having full read/write-access to all stuff inside /var/www too | 12:56 |
| mang0 | Does anybody here use GTK cairo-dock? I can't get the drop&share applet to work for images :/ | 12:56 |
| aeon-ltd | 3/quit | 12:57 |
| spreetzer | llutz: not my webserve, it's passenger user, which deploys my website | 12:57 |
| llutz | spreetzer: only one user? make him owner of /var/www/* and he can do what you want. chgrp -R www-data /var/www for httpd-access | 12:58 |
| jonathon_ | Anyone here got the link to fix the headphone port for laptops? | 12:59 |
| antihero | How would I get the installed package version? | 12:59 |
| llutz | apt-cache policy <package> | 13:00 |
| llutz | spreetzer: you might ask in #Capistrano for further help (i had to google what that is) | 13:02 |
| gskill | so | 13:02 |
| gskill | anyone has this issue before? | 13:03 |
| antihero | Anyone else find google's repos to be horrendously slow to wait for headers | 13:03 |
| trinity9000 | antihero: No, I find Google's repository to be most excellent | 13:03 |
| gskill | damn | 13:03 |
| Rigin | join #ubuntu | 13:03 |

| gskill | how can I restart my xserver? :S there is an error: Failed to connect to x server | 13:05 |
| vilsonfarias | \join #gaim | 13:05 |
| antihero | trinity9000: Weird. | 13:05 |
| antihero | llutz: Thanks, by the way. | 13:05 |
| * amol_beast says Hello | 13:05 | |
| antihero | Is it possible to change the compiler used by the "make" command (for the hell of it) | 13:05 |
| trinity9000 | antihero: You can either specify a compiler directly in the make file, or change your default compiler when you call "cc" etc. | 13:06 |
| * gskill hello | 13:07 | |
| antihero | trinity9000: How would I do either? | 13:08 |

| doufnufem | hey guys i have a question | 13:09 |
| doufnufem | I'm trying to reinstall my ubuntu parition | 13:09 |
| doufnufem | on a winxp ubuntu machine | 13:09 |
| doufnufem | when i try to do so i try the first option; erase ubuntu 11.04 and reinstall | 13:09 |
| doufnufem | how ever i get an error that i have too many paritions | 13:09 |
| doufnufem | any solutions? | 13:10 |
| gskill | hw many partitions do you have doufnufem ? | 13:10 |
| doufnufem | i have 5 | 13:10 |
| doufnufem | pardon | 13:11 |
| doufnufem | 4 | 13:11 |
| gskill | try with advancer install | 13:11 |
| gskill | advanced* | 13:11 |
| doufnufem | one for ubuntu, one for windows, one for a blank parition i use to swap files between the two, and one for swap | 13:11 |
| gskill | doufnufem, try with the advanced installation by formating it and then installing the natty again | 13:12 |
| doufnufem | will i need to reinstall the swap parition? | 13:12 |
| gskill | doufnufem, no, you don't | 13:12 |
| gskill | just format the ext partition and that's all | 13:13 |
| aetas | that you again, duke? | 13:13 |
| doufnufem | ya | 13:13 |
| aetas | problems? | 13:13 |
| doufnufem | just working on it atm | 13:14 |
| doufnufem | to many paritions for easy install | 13:14 |
| doufnufem | and very wary of messing up the windows parition | 13:14 |
| doufnufem | okay using gparted to reformat the ubuntu part | 13:15 |

| Newwwwb | ty heh. | 13:18 |
| gskill | jamshid_, mode r is when the channel can only joined by registered nick on the nickserve | 13:18 |
| Felersurm | what does one use instead of dd to create a image of a lv on a vg. | 13:18 |
| jamshid_ | thank you! | 13:18 |
| doufnufem | man idk if im doing this right :x | 13:19 |
| gskill | jamshid_, u wlcm | 13:19 |
| ParkerR | Man I love pianobar | 13:19 |
| Newwwwb | my xubuntu does this odd thing after some use (days).. it makes program windows go away..or some sort | 13:19 |
| Newwwwb | I could take a pic and show it to you, hold onb | 13:19 |
| Newwwwb | brb | 13:19 |
| gskill | well.. so anyone had troubles with the xserver? | 13:19 |
| ParkerR | This is why everyone should have access to a BNC XD | 13:19 |
| gskill | it seems like I'm the only one :( | 13:20 |
| ParkerR | gskill, details | 13:20 |
| doufnufem | http://i.imgur.com/Fq2sx.png <--- is this right? | 13:20 |
| Felersurm | gskill: no you are not but your question was a bit general | 13:20 |
| ParkerR | Nonon make that fat32 ext4 | 13:20 |
| ParkerR | doufnufem, | 13:20 |
| doufnufem | fat32 is my windows part | 13:21 |
| ParkerR | sda2 is your windows | 13:21 |
| ParkerR | sda4 is going to be the linux partition | 13:21 |
| gskill | ParkerR, Felersurm when I boot on linux ubuntu 10.10, the gnome doesn't works and the login screen is on console mode | 13:21 |
| ParkerR | Needs to be ext4 or ext3 | 13:21 |
| ParkerR | gskill, dunno | 13:21 |
| doufnufem | wait excuse me :< | 13:21 |
| gskill | I have a FX 5200 Nvidia | 13:22 |
| doufnufem | fat32 is my just storage partition | 13:22 |
| ParkerR | Oh | 13:22 |
| gskill | on vga graph | 13:22 |
| doufnufem | i want to put it on sda/1 thats where i had my previous ubuntu install | 13:22 |
| ParkerR | So where are you putting linux doufnufem ? | 13:22 |
| ParkerR | Oh then thats ok | 13:22 |
| ParkerR | :) | 13:22 |
| doufnufem | awesome | 13:22 |
| doufnufem | now just click next? | 13:22 |
| doufnufem | and hope i dont fuck it up lol | 13:22 |
| FloodBot1 | doufnufem: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 13:22 |
| ParkerR | Yep | 13:23 |
| doufnufem | crap | 13:23 |
| doufnufem | no root file system detected | 13:23 |
| doufnufem | :x | 13:23 |
| ParkerR | Oh | 13:23 |
| ParkerR | On that etx4 make the mountpoint / | 13:23 |
| doufnufem | k | 13:23 |
| Felersurm | gskill: i thought 10.10 to be a bit crappy. so if you dont mind upgrading. do it. goes like this: sudo su and then: aptitude update; aptitude upgrade; do-release-upgrade | 13:23 |
| ParkerR | *ext4 | 13:24 |
| mang0 | n0trusting hrm | 13:24 |
| gskill | Felersurm, ok I'll try that and see what happens | 13:24 |
| iceroot | Felersurm: sudo su is wrong | 13:24 |
| ParkerR | I'm on 10.04.2 right now :) | 13:24 |
| gskill | iceroot, I know | 13:24 |
| iceroot | Felersurm: also using a real root-shell is not the supported way | 13:24 |
| gskill | just su | 13:25 |
| iceroot | gskill: wrong | 13:25 |
| doufnufem | sry about all the questions. Like this http://i.imgur.com/qSMZu.png | 13:25 |
| gskill | but also can I try with ctrl+alt+F2 | 13:25 |
| Felersurm | ill rephrase my question: i heard one shouldnt use dd to copy from lvs. what do i use instead to create images from a logival volume which resides on a volume group?? | 13:25 |
| ParkerR | doufnufem, bingo | 13:25 |
| doufnufem | tnx | 13:25 |
| iceroot | !sudo | gskill | 13:25 |
| ubottu | gskill: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 13:25 |
| gskill | iceroot, I'm happy with my kernel | 13:25 |
| Felersurm | iceroot: how is sudo su wrong? | 13:25 |
| iceroot | Felersurm: its setting the environment wrong | 13:26 |
| ParkerR | You can just do sudo <command> | 13:26 |
| gskill | just su | 13:26 |
| iceroot | Felersurm: sudo -i is the correct way for a root-shell | 13:26 |
| gskill | and then the pass | 13:26 |
| Felersurm | iceroot: yeah but that doesnt matter for some aptitude runs | 13:26 |
| iceroot | Felersurm: but we only support sudo command here | 13:26 |
| gskill | that changes your user to root | 13:26 |
| iceroot | Felersurm: it can matter | 13:26 |
| Pici | gskill: The root account is locked by default on Ubuntu. | 13:27 |
| iceroot | Felersurm: so there is no reason to use the wrong way | 13:27 |
| dyd | hello all | 13:27 |
| gskill | Pici, I can use my root account | 13:27 |
| ParkerR | Yeah me too | 13:27 |
| iceroot | gskill: you can do what you want but its not supported here | 13:27 |
| Pici | gskill: Just because you can, doesn't mean your should or recommend to others. | 13:27 |
| ParkerR | First thing I do is sudo passwd to set root password | 13:28 |
| dyd | i've done sudo grub-install /dev/sdb, but now at startup i see: error: no such device: E25C67D55C67A351 then grub rescue> | 13:28 |
| iceroot | ParkerR: same for you as for gskill | 13:28 |
| dyd | (now i'm with another pc) | 13:28 |
| gskill | iceroot, I don't want to do nothing but repair my xserver | 13:28 |
| gskill | :S | 13:28 |
| ParkerR | I've just never understood why root has always been regarded as forbidden land | 13:28 |
| iceroot | ParkerR: because there is no reason for a real root-account | 13:29 |
| gskill | ParkerR, I had to unlock that accout to unlock the keyring.... | 13:29 |
| iceroot | ParkerR: its to easy to break the system when using a root-account | 13:29 |
| gskill | iceroot, I never use the root account | 13:29 |
| dyd | can anyone help me with grub stuff? | 13:29 |
| ParkerR | Yeah, I have heard that. I usually don't do anything stupid as root | 13:29 |
| chbdyy | YLMF OS 4.0 的视觉效果怎么开啊？ | 13:29 |
| ParkerR | But I can see how that can happen | 13:29 |
| iceroot | ParkerR: its not a question of stupid | 13:30 |
| iceroot | ParkerR: but a normal typo can be bad | 13:30 |
| Felersurm | i heard one shouldnt use dd to copy from lvs. what do i use instead to create images from a logival volume which resides on a volume group?? | 13:30 |
| dyd | the situation was like that: i installed ubuntu on a 160 gb hd, but i can't understand why if i plug out a 500 hd it won't load ubuntu, so i tried grub-install on the 160gb hd but nothing changed | 13:30 |
| chbdyy | YLMF OS 4.0 的视觉效果怎么开啊？ | 13:30 |
| dyd | it's like if grub is installed on the 500 gb hd | 13:30 |
| gskill | ParkerR, what iceroot wants to mean is that someone can login as root remotely on your pc then do whatever he wants | 13:30 |
| Lartza | In all cases, is the server edition good for servers? | 13:30 |
| iceroot | gskill: that is not what i mean | 13:31 |
| ParkerR | gskill, I don't think so | 13:31 |
| Felersurm | dyd: probably grub was installed to your 500GB HDs masterbootrecord | 13:31 |
| chbdyy | 怎么都是老外？ | 13:31 |
| dyd | Felersurm: how can i do the same on my 160hd? | 13:31 |
| Pici | !zh | chbdyy | 13:31 |
| ubottu | chbdyy: 如欲獲得中文的協助，請輸入 /join #ubuntu-cn /join #ubuntu-tw 或 /join #ubuntu-hk | 13:31 |
| dyd | i'm in grub-rescue console | 13:31 |
| Lartza | Just a home server, but doesn't the server kernel decrease interactivity? Is it heavier than the desktop one and does it perform in streaming and torrents? | 13:31 |
| gskill | iceroot, I don't have a root account | 13:31 |
| gskill | I just changed my rood pass | 13:32 |
| Felersurm | dyd: can you just replug the old HD? | 13:32 |
| iceroot | gskill: then you have a root-account | 13:32 |
| gskill | yep | 13:32 |
| dyd | Felersurm: yes i can do that, but i want to use the 500hd for other pourposes | 13:32 |
| ParkerR | <gskill> iceroot, I don't have a root account | 13:32 |
| ParkerR | gskill, you aren't making any sense | 13:32 |
| gskill | iceroot, it was necessary to unlock my keyring... | 13:32 |
| Felersurm | dyd: yes but then you can boot and installing grub into the 160GB HD will be easier | 13:32 |
| iceroot | gskill: no | 13:32 |
| iceroot | gskill: just use sudo for that | 13:33 |
| gskill | :O | 13:33 |
| iceroot | gskill: as i said there is no reason for a real root-account | 13:33 |
| gskill | sudo keyring unlock? :/ | 13:33 |
| dyd | Felersurm: lol... now it's not working | 13:33 |
| ParkerR | iceroot, lets agree to disagree. | 13:33 |
| iceroot | gskill: if keyring unlock is the command, yes | 13:33 |
| dyd | Felersurm: maybe cause i installed grub on the 160hd manually? | 13:33 |
| iceroot | !sudo | gskill | 13:34 |
| ubottu | gskill: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 13:34 |
| Pici | gskill: no... I think you're confusing the difference between using sudo or gksudo with actually unlocking the root account and setting a password. | 13:34 |
| Felersurm | dyd: maybe yes | 13:34 |
| Pici | gskill: unlocking the keyring has nothing to do with this. | 13:34 |
| Felersurm | dyd: ok unplug the 500G one again | 13:34 |
| gskill | never mind | 13:34 |
| zhangyang09 | how to check a file in which package in ubuntu | 13:34 |
| dyd | Felersurm: done | 13:34 |
| gskill | I want to restore my gdm in a first place | 13:34 |
| Felersurm | !grub > dyd | 13:34 |
| ubottu | dyd, please see my private message | 13:34 |
| Pici | zhangyang09: dpkg -S /path/to/file | 13:34 |
| iceroot | zhangyang09: apt-file search, http://packages.ubuntu.com, dpkg -S /path/to/local/file | 13:35 |
| Felersurm | !grub > Felersurm | 13:35 |
| ubottu | Felersurm, please see my private message | 13:35 |
| dyd | Felersurm: thank you | 13:35 |
| R1ck | so I have this preseed file which works beautifully, my root and swap are created (root within an LVM), but now I have made a second preseed file which includes the first but with a seperate /home partition in the LVM. It doesnt work, it does include the other preseed file, but the setting i'm trying to override (d-i partman-auto/expert_recipe string) doesnt seem to take effect | 13:35 |
| ParkerR | Iforgot how nice 10.04 was | 13:35 |
| ParkerR | *I forgot | 13:35 |
| Pici | Felersurm: You may want to tray asking in #ubuntu-server for your question (or ##linux since it doesn't seem to be Ubuntu specific) | 13:35 |
| gskill | ParkerR, I had 10,04 | 13:35 |
| trinity9000 | Lartza: The difference between the server and desktop kernel is described here: http://tegeksinfo.wordpress.com/2011/05/06/kernel-differences-between-ubuntu-linux-desktop-and-server-editions/ | 13:36 |
| squig | i like 10.04 | 13:36 |
| gskill | but it crashes with my graphic card too | 13:36 |
| zhangyang09 | oh, Thanks , i find it use dpkg -S.. :) | 13:36 |
| qin | Lartza: On headless machine, rtorrent is sensible, also deluge and transmission can be operated from cli and via web, there are also auto-downloaders and tracker updater operated even via irc, but it is off-topic. | 13:36 |
| ParkerR | squig, It just feels snappier to me than 11.* | 13:36 |
| dyd | Felersurm: i'm booting pc with ubuntu installation cd inserted | 13:37 |
| Lartza | qin: Yes but was thinking how the server performs on HDD intensive tasks like torrents and streaming? | 13:37 |
| dyd | Felersurm: live session means to use "try ubuntu without installing"? | 13:37 |
| Felersurm | dyd: yes | 13:37 |
| dyd | Felersurm: okk | 13:38 |
| new | sigh | 13:38 |
| squig | so the only real differnce is the kernel timer? the rest can be changed through proc? | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Lartza: transmission can be used headless too | 13:39 |
| qin | Lartza: Desktop gives you gui, which can only slow down yours or automatic tasks, server edition have superior hardware support. | 13:39 |
| squig | superior hardware support? its the same kernel | 13:39 |
| qin | squig: Really? Then it does not. | 13:40 |
| VectorX | hi, i got ubuntu installed in a vm, no gui only cli, how can i extend the disk space from the os itself, the vm is set to dynamic in virtualbox but its not expanding | 13:41 |
| ActionParsnip | VectorX: I'd ask in #vbox | 13:41 |
| VectorX | ActionParsnip ok | 13:42 |
| VectorX | i thought it was a ubuntu/linux question thought | 13:42 |
| woky | Hello. Is there any `easy' way to install ipw3945 driver in latest ubuntu (11.04) ? | 13:42 |
| plouffe | Why does the website still recommend the 32bit version downloads? | 13:42 |
| AcidRain | damn. i just got fired | 13:43 |
| Lartza | qin: Minimal install doesn't have GUI | 13:43 |
| Lartza | qin: Yet is desktop | 13:43 |
| ActionParsnip | VectorX: it kinda is but the vbox config needs tweaking so asking in #vbox as well is good | 13:44 |
| trinity9000 | qin: A GUI doesn't affect server tasks very much at all... if you have 2GB of RAM or more, your desktop will be using a tiny amount, and likewise for CPU usage | 13:44 |
| qin | Lartza: Ok, you can run desktop with no gui too, what do you want to do? | 13:45 |
| ActionParsnip | trinity9000: it reduces security though as you are running more services | 13:45 |
| Lartza | qin: home server/NAS | 13:45 |
| qin | trinity9000: Maybe, but 200Mb of ram look precious on many machines. | 13:46 |
| squig | x11 servers are leaky/unstable huge bits of code that you dont want to run | 13:46 |
| Lartza | Currently have one it's Arch now but Ubuntu doesn't have so much updates that break it all the time :) | 13:46 |
| KommaH | Hey everyone! I'm having issue with the time drifting on a Xen VM running Ubuntu. I've installed ntp and ntpdate and told it to sync periodically (which it does), however, the time is still drifting... | 13:46 |
| squig | KommaH, does it ntpd stop running? | 13:46 |
| VectorX | ok so this is the answer i get from #vbox: [19:16] <JshWright> VectorX: that's not really a VBox specific thing... how would you expand any partition? | 13:47 |
| KommaH | squig: ntpd is still running. | 13:47 |
| KommaH | I think it updates the time hourly. | 13:47 |
| squig | do you have the command ntpq | 13:47 |
| KommaH | yes | 13:47 |
| qin | Lartza: Desktop edition have better configuration, even if you boot with no X. But pretty much it would not matter. | 13:47 |
| squig | can you show what ntpq -p says? | 13:47 |
| KommaH | squig: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/442809/ | 13:48 |
| squig | KommaH, for some reason you havnt peered with that server | 13:48 |
| KommaH | :O | 13:48 |
| Lartza | qin: Was gonna get TurnKey first but it looks stupid, I'll try the Server edition out, can always change :) | 13:49 |
| squig | your offset might be to big | 13:49 |
| squig | is that ntp server local or on the internet? | 13:49 |
| KommaH | Ergh | 13:49 |
| KommaH | On the internet | 13:49 |
| squig | ok, you probably want to get a few more ntp servers | 13:49 |
| dyd | Felersurm: thank you, it's working now! :) | 13:49 |
| squig | ntp is pretty light weight | 13:49 |
| squig | there are the ntp pool servers | 13:50 |
| === hacked is now known as vinces | ||
| Lartza | squig: Offset too big? | 13:50 |
| billy2007 | can i dual boot windows and ubuntu after ubunutu is installed | 13:50 |
| ParkerR | Woo go my layout setup http://cl.ly/3p00321i1z0q0a0L411p | 13:50 |
| Lartza | billy2007: Tricky but yes | 13:50 |
| squig | Lartza, when ntp starts if the offset it so large it will never start running the clock | 13:50 |
| squig | there is an option to ignore that | 13:50 |
| dsnyders | !dual | 13:51 |
| Lartza | squig: Hmm... Arch Linux probably has some stuff at init script to fix that "issue" | 13:51 |
| KommaH | How do I tell ntp to sync up with other servers? Is there a command, or do I just edit the config directly? | 13:51 |
| billy2007 | Lartza, my assumtion was to resize the partition and install on the remaining free space would this work? | 13:51 |
| Lartza | KommaH: Edit config | 13:51 |

| Lartza | billy2007: I forgot what widnows wants | 13:52 |
| Lartza | billy2007: I have my XP on second HDD, but on the beginning of it | 13:52 |
| Lartza | I think it has to be on the beginning | 13:52 |
| HackNewton | hi all | 13:52 |
| squig | KommaH, i know how to edit the config | 13:52 |
| billy2007 | Lartza, i dont understand what you mean by what it wants | 13:52 |
| Pici | Lartza, billy2007: It doesn't matter which order the partitions are on. | 13:52 |
| dyd | how can i detect what processor i have installed? | 13:52 |
| squig | some thing like | 13:52 |
| Lartza | Pici: Oh yea, first booting :) | 13:52 |
| squig | server 0.uk.pool.ntp.org | 13:52 |
| squig | change uk to be your country code | 13:53 |
| Lartza | Pici: (Which can be fooled from grub) | 13:53 |
| Pici | billy2007: Its easier to have windows installed and then install Ubuntu, otherwise you'll need to setup grub yourself afterwards, which can be a pain. | 13:53 |
| KommaH | Do I need to stop the daemon first? | 13:53 |
| squig | KommaH, you will need to restart it after changing | 13:53 |

| billy2007 | Pici, does this still apply if its on a different partition and i format the empty one first | 13:54 |
| Lartza | Pici: I consider it a pain when my wndows install cd refused to boot when there were ext partitions | 13:54 |
| Pici | billy2007: yes. | 13:54 |
| Lartza | Pici: Also windows was going to format my LVM partitions even though I didn't tell it to and it saw them as some other type | 13:54 |

| trinity9000 | Lartza: Pretty sure Windows still won't recognise LVM... | 13:55 |
| billy2007 | is there a way to move all my settings and files to another ubuntu pc via ethernet cable? | 13:55 |
| Lartza | trinity9000: It saw it as some restore or recovery partition | 13:55 |
| KommaH | Alright. Thanks for the help, all! | 13:55 |
| Lartza | trinity9000: And started to format it even though I selected another partition for install, but failed the format | 13:56 |
| Lartza | trinity9000: And ext like I said made the install CD stuck at boot... | 13:56 |
| Lartza | Always installed windows first since then :) | 13:56 |
| trinity9000 | Yes, I install Windows first too | 13:56 |
| AcidRain | Lartza: same thing happened to me | 13:56 |
| BlankVerse | hey guys , is there anything similar for linux http://cafbit.com/entry/rapid_dhcp_or_how_do | 13:56 |

| Lartza | Windows | 13:58 |
| AcidRain | yeah true | 13:58 |
| Lartza | Have to update each damn software individually :D | 13:58 |
| AcidRain | Lartza: and even at that. im a little scared to use the win auto update, considering half the time i click on it, its actually a virus | 13:58 |
| Lartza | That keeps me in Linux and doesn't need anything else :) | 13:58 |
| Lartza | AcidRain: What auto-update? WINautoupdte.ru.bat.EXE? | 13:59 |

| AcidRain | i would ask in #x | 14:04 |

| trinity9000 | angawar: What graphics card do you have? | 14:04 |

| Lartza | Also there are not as many active users there :) | 14:05 |
| AcidRain | see here at #ubuntu we are understanding | 14:05 |
| dsnyders | angawar, By rotate, do you mean change the orientation from portrait to landscape? | 14:05 |
| Lartza | AcidRain: Who is? me? no | 14:05 |
| AcidRain | lol | 14:05 |
| Lartza | AcidRain: ahh | 14:05 |
| Lartza | AcidRain: angwar is, nobody has dual 9800GT if they use Linjux | 14:06 |
| Lartza | :P | 14:06 |
| angawar | hm, think it would be nice if the 22" screens are in portrait and the 24" in landscape(?) | 14:06 |
| dddbmt | Hi guys. I want to reinstall a computer with Windows XP instead of Ubuntu. But what ever I do I can't get to boot from the CD. I have CD as first priority boot in BIOS, and I've tried to start through the "Select boot device" menu. | 14:06 |
| angawar | if thats possible? | 14:06 |
| dddbmt | Is there a way to restart+boot from cd, from within ubuntu?= | 14:06 |
| === mlorenzo is now known as mjl | ||
| Lartza | dddbmt: Not raelly, BIOS boots it so all you should need to do ise what you said | 14:07 |
| Lasers | dddbmt: You burned a bad Windows disc... Looks like it. | 14:07 |
| Lartza | dddbmt: Set CD to be first bootable and have a disc that boots | 14:07 |
| dddbmt | Lartza, Lasers: So it's a bad CD? | 14:07 |
| Lasers | dddbmt: It's a possibility. | 14:08 |
| Lasers | dddbmt: Bad CD, Bad ISO. It's not set to bootable, etc. is also possibilites. | 14:08 |
| dsnyders | dddbmt, try another bootable cd. | 14:08 |
| trinity9000 | angawar: Are you using the NVIDIA proprietary graphics driver? | 14:08 |
| vendix | how to upgrade ubuntu 11.04 | 14:08 |
| vendix | to 11.10? | 14:08 |
| angawar | Yeah think so | 14:09 |
| Pici | vendix: See the topic in #ubuntu+1 | 14:09 |
| Lasers | angawar: Did you look at Nvidia Settings under System/Preferences after you enabled the driver? | 14:09 |
| angawar | yeah | 14:09 |
| Lasers | angawar: You should be able to generate xorg.conf from there -- then modify it to your likings. | 14:10 |
| trinity9000 | I thought there was an option to set Rotation in the Nvidia control panel | 14:10 |
| trinity9000 | Not at home at the moment to look | 14:10 |
| vendix | Pici: i see the few url's | 14:10 |
| vendix | :) | 14:10 |
| angawar | I have done this so far, but i dont know how to rotate just those two screens? | 14:10 |

| HackNewton | billy2007, no newest Ubuntu is 11.04 Natty | 14:16 |
| billy2007 | HackNewton, could i still use the grub off of the live cd to install the bootloader | 14:16 |
| trinity9000 | billy2007: Ubuntu has a new version every 6 months, the version refers to the year/month | 14:17 |
| === new is now known as Dumby | ||
| billy2007 | ihave the newest version i just couldnt remember the numbers | 14:17 |

| angawar | But why cant I drag windows across screens? | 14:17 |
| angawar | hehe | 14:17 |

| === xindz is now known as xindzz`off | ||
| HackNewton | billy2007, yes | 14:18 |
| brandon_ | I have 2 quick questions. First of all, is there a way to reorder my grub options so that win 7 is selected first instead of ubuntu? | 14:18 |
| HackNewton | billy2007, grub version hardly matters | 14:18 |
| HackNewton | brandon_, yes there is you just have to edit your grub.conf file | 14:19 |
| brandon_ | HackNewton, where is that located? | 14:19 |
| Guest80157 | Is this is Like The not line For Linux | 14:20 |
| HackNewton | brandon_, /etc/grub.conf | 14:20 |
| ActionParsnip | brandon_: yes | 14:20 |
| Guest80157 | hotline For linux | 14:20 |
| brandon_ | HackNewton, thank you. | 14:21 |
| HackNewton | brandon_, just make sure you edit it correctly or your grub may get down | 14:21 |
| HackNewton | brandon_, you are welcome | 14:21 |
| douf-nufem | HackNewton... is that like jail breaking an ipod? | 14:21 |
| ActionParsnip | brandon_: sudo mv 30_os-prober 08_os-prober; sudo update-grub | 14:22 |
| HackNewton | douf-nufem, lol no ! | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip | brandon_: you'll need to run: cd /etc/grub.d first | 14:22 |
| brandon_ | My second question is regarding an update. I am on 10.10 right now and to get my external wireless adapter to work and had to manually compile and install a driver. What i want to know is if I update to 11.04 will I have to re-do all that driver stuff? And is it even gauranteed to work on the update? | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip | brandon_: more than likely yes | 14:23 |
| ActionParsnip | brandon_: you may have to recompile if the new kernel doesn't support your wifi hardware | 14:23 |
| HackNewton | brandon_, Surely yes! its sad but no other option | 14:23 |
| brandon_ | Actionparsnip, what exactly does the update change? Like my desktop and all files will remain as is right? And the kernel already update to the newest version and i had to re-do driver. So i should be good then if kernel is already up to date? | 14:24 |
| HackNewton | Bye have nice day all | 14:25 |
| HackNewton | :D | 14:25 |
| lafon | anyway I can get the synaptic download scripts to work in win7? | 14:26 |
| brandon_ | ActionParsnip, I guess what i mean to ask is what exactly does 11.04 Update when it updates? which folders and stuff. | 14:26 |
| brandon_ | 2.6.35-30 is most upto date kernel correct? | 14:29 |
| martin` | Hi, I get internet from usb and would like to share it wirelessly to a mac.

| martin` | I tried to do the same in different machines using Lucid, Natty and Oneiric. No success. | 14:30 |
| trinity9000 | brandon_: No, version 3 would be the latest | 14:31 |
| martin` | Is there an easy way to do this? | 14:31 |
| squig | martin`, I dont know if there is an 'easy' way | 14:32 |
| squig | but what didnt work? | 14:32 |
| Medjai | has anyone tried to "make" a binary who's source uses #include <QtCrypto>? | 14:32 |
| Medjai | I have the package libqca2 installed and QtCrypto is present in /urs/include/ | 14:32 |
| Medjai | but when i try to make I get the error that it doesn't exist WTF is that all about? | 14:32 |
| brandon_ | trinity9000, do i have to be on 11.04 to have it? Cause im on 10.10 and it just updated | 14:32 |
| Pici | Medjai: Do you have the coorisponding -dev package installed as well? | 14:33 |
| martin` | I don't find the ssid in mac | 14:33 |
| Medjai | yeah it's only a dev package that i need correct | 14:33 |
| martin` | nor my phone | 14:33 |
| Medjai | or is the regular one needed? | 14:33 |
| Pici | Medjai: The -dev usually depends on the regular one, so you might as well keep it installed. | 14:33 |
| Medjai | eh well either way i have both packages it seems like | 14:33 |
| Medjai | so i'm not sure why i'm having compiling errors | 14:34 |
| martin` | I remember being able to do it in another computer, I remember choosing Infrastructure instead of ad-hoc. But I am not sure | 14:34 |
| Medjai | Pici, any clue? | 14:34 |
| trinity9000 | brandon_: I don't think 11.04 has the latest kernel either. Ubuntu only does incremental upgrades of the kernel once it's stable, it won't jump to a big new version (for stability reasons) | 14:35 |
| Pici | Medjai: can you pastebin the exact erros that you're getting? | 14:35 |
| Medjai | sure 1 sec | 14:35 |
| brandon_ | trinity9000, well what should i be operating on is there a huge difference? | 14:36 |
| martin` | squig: what would the difficult way be? | 14:37 |
| trinity9000 | brandon_: Most additions to a kernel are to do with drivers these days. There aren't often major new features/speedups for a couple of years. | 14:37 |
| squig | martin`, thats the one bit I dont know how to do, I would just make an adhoc network via the ui? | 14:37 |
| Medjai | Hey Pici, here's the pastebin of the error | 14:38 |
| Medjai | http://pastebin.com/JRMvZjiL | 14:38 |
| brandon_ | trinity9000, ok. If i had to manually compile/install a driver to get my usb wireless internet to work, and i update to 11.04, well it be broken? | 14:38 |
| martin` | squig: no success. I tried different encryption possibilities, also no encryption... but nothing. | 14:39 |
| squig | can you make the network on your mac and then connect with linux? | 14:39 |
| Pici | Medjai: Okay, give me a minute. | 14:40 |
| Medjai | sure thing | 14:40 |
| trinity9000 | brandon_: Not necessarily, I suggest reading this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile | 14:40 |
| martin` | squig: sure. but I get internet from an Android phone, and there is no easy way of doing it from a mac | 14:40 |
| squig | martian_, making an adhoc network? | 14:41 |
| squig | tis easy | 14:41 |
| martin` | squig: unless you use the phone as a wifi hotspot... which I don't want to do. I want ubuntu to be the wifi hotspot | 14:41 |

| trinity9000 | austinbv: avahi implements zeroconf like bonjour, use that | 14:43 |
| austinbv | that's what I have done | 14:43 |
| martin` | squig: I set the adhoc wireless network correctly but I cannot see it in the mac. dr-willis: how can I know if my chipset does not support it? | 14:43 |
| dr-willis | martin`: forums perhaps. | 14:44 |
| squig | martin`, its adhoc just make the first one on your mac and try and connect to it? | 14:45 |
| squig | once you get wireless connected you can configure ip/route/dns differently | 14:45 |
| jimmy51_ | i need a package management ninja. initramfs-tools screwed up during the 11.04 upgrade and now my system is not happy. | 14:46 |
| martin` | squig: so do you mean I should create a wireless computer connection from the mac and then connect to it from ubuntu? Then I could change settings so that ubuntu shares internet? | 14:47 |

| trinity9000 | billy2007: They use the same underlying tools, it's just a different GUI | 14:51 |
| iceroot | rgb247: also use "su - username" instead of "su username" | 14:51 |
| ActionParsnip | billy2007: which desktop do you use? | 14:51 |
| rgb247 | thanks you | 14:51 |

| KM0201 | billy2007: if you don't plan on installing much, 12-15gigs is pretty good.. the OS will take up a little over 3 or so, w/ the base install | 14:54 |

| climbe2 | lartza, so i change "root=UUID=e3dfblahblahblah" to "root=/dev/sdb1" ?? | 16:07 |
| Lartza | ckrailo: :O I guess so | 16:08 |
| Lartza | no... | 16:08 |
| === guampa_ is now known as guampa | ||
| Lartza | Someone tell what root= is in grub2? :D | 16:08 |
| Lartza | or does /dev/sdb1 work? | 16:08 |
| adubz | my $output_file = '/var/www/log/number_output.log'; what would I do to apply regex to my output file | 16:08 |
| adubz | oops wrong channel | 16:08 |
| obeyance | I had that fullscreen issue before. Its an easy fix, but i dont remember how to do it. | 16:08 |
| climbe2 | I am using grub version 1.98-1ubuntu12 | 16:09 |
| Dmole | howlymowly: yah I do it even on computers where flash works windows/mac because you don't get buffering problems or flash flakes out | 16:09 |
| Lartza | climbe2: For me it would be root=/dev/sdXY but for me it's also /dev/disk-by-uuid/*insert characters* | 16:09 |
| howlymowly | Dmole: chrome does not have that plug-in right? | 16:09 |
| climbe2 | hmm.. | 16:09 |
| ParkerR | Chrome comes with flash built in | 16:09 |
| howlymowly | Dmole: do you know the name of the plugin? | 16:09 |
| Lartza | Dmole: Stop wathing videos of people who only release flash videos :P | 16:09 |

| Lartza | ParkerR: Does ubuntu have chrome? :/ | 16:10 |
| XuMuK | howlymowly, I don't remember exactly, thought, about 4-5 months ago it was fine | 16:10 |
| ParkerR | Yes | 16:10 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: Why? :S | 16:10 |
| ParkerR | chrome.google.com | 16:10 |
| ParkerR | What do you mean why? | 16:10 |
| howlymowly | XuMuK: kk.. that's about my feeling as well | 16:10 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: It does | 16:10 |
| Lartza | not | 16:10 |
| Dmole | Lartza: yah torrenting is better but once a year there is something flash only that someone want's to show me | 16:10 |
| ParkerR | Go to chrome.google.com | 16:10 |
| Lartza | I wondered, chromium is the open-source one :) | 16:10 |
| ParkerR | Click download | 16:10 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: apt-get install chromium | 16:11 |
| Lartza | the right way | 16:11 |
| ParkerR | No | 16:11 |
| nyuszika7h | !info chromium | 16:11 |

| ParkerR | Chromium != Google Chrome | 16:11 |

| ParkerR | Google Chrome is based on Chromium but it is not Chromium | 16:12 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: Chromium > Google Chrome | 16:12 |
| ParkerR | No | 16:12 |
| XuMuK | apt-get install google-chrome-stable if you want chrome and have google's repo appended | 16:12 |
| ParkerR | It is not | 16:12 |
| Lartza | well one shouldt get google packages | 16:12 |
| [THC]AcidRain | see man wtf. im bout to merc myself | 16:12 |
| Lartza | but apt-get | 16:12 |
| ParkerR | Chromium doesn't have all the plugins Chrome does | 16:12 |
| ParkerR | What's wrong with Google? | 16:12 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: What plugins? The extension gallery is exactly the same | 16:12 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: chrome is built by google and chromium bu packagers | 16:12 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: Also the chrome.google.com probably spits files all over your filesystem | 16:13 |
| timrc | question: if I have two seperate instances of terminal open is there a way to combine them into one (e.g. make one a tab within the other) ? | 16:13 |
| k1rk | Nobody's familiar with likewise open? | 16:13 |
| [THC]AcidRain | google is great | 16:13 |
| ParkerR | Gaah | 16:13 |
| XuMuK | ParkerR, there's nothing, but there are people who has a lot of paranoia | 16:13 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: So what plugins? | 16:13 |
| CronTab | I've edited crontab by using sudo crontab -e...should i do anything else to get it activated? reboot? | 16:14 |
| Dmole | timrc: maybe drag and drop one tab into the tab space of another window | 16:14 |
| XuMuK | CronTab, you should have the daemon started | 16:14 |
| XuMuK | and that's it | 16:14 |
| CronTab | how do i start it? | 16:14 |
| timrc | Dmole, I wish it worked like that | 16:15 |
| XuMuK | CronTab, it should already be there, take a look ps aux | grep -v grep | grep cron | 16:15 |
| Dmole | timrc: works like that on osx :) | 16:15 |
| akita | CronTab, /etc/init.d/cron restart | 16:15 |
| timrc | Dmole, doh :) | 16:15 |
| ParkerR | Lartza, I was not able to play chrome.angrybirds.com in Chromium. It didn't have webgl | 16:15 |
| CronTab | ok thank you!! | 16:16 |
| CronTab | byee! | 16:16 |
| ParkerR | Try that in Chromium | 16:16 |
| szad | Maybye anyone here now something about samba? I cant connect ubuntu to windows to share files. | 16:16 |
| akita | CronTab, bye :-) | 16:16 |
| prt1990 | hey | 16:16 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: Weird, I was able to play it with Chromium just fine | 16:16 |
| prt1990 | how to use terminal? | 16:16 |
| akita | ParkerR, er. Really? | 16:16 |
| Dmole | timrc: another thing you could do is work in a screen then detach and resume it from the other window | 16:17 |
| ParkerR | Last I tied. Which wasn't too long ago | 16:17 |
| ParkerR | *tried | 16:17 |
| Dmole | timrc: (man screen) | 16:17 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: webgl was in chromium before chrome... | 16:17 |
| HeatMzzr | using chat in console or tty screen, the screen resolution is screwed up.. only using a qtr of the screen available with the rest of the screen unused.. how do I address that please??? | 16:17 |
| extraclassic | szad: to connect from ubuntu you need smbclient and cifs-utils, then I just mount a share in fstab | 16:17 |
| moxbox | Can I go straight from Maverick to Oneiric, and if so how? | 16:17 |
| ParkerR | Well I prefer Chrome > Chromium so lets agree to disagree | 16:17 |
| prt1990 | how to use photoshop in ubuntu | 16:17 |
| prt1990 | ?? | 16:18 |
| xangua | moxbox: no | 16:18 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: There is still really nothing different tho those | 16:18 |
| VEndix | well that 11.10 doesn't work properely | 16:18 |
| arfbtwn | prt1990: Try the GIMP | 16:18 |
| prt1990 | kk | 16:18 |
| szad | extraclassic, well it says that i have both of that programs | 16:18 |
| VEndix | how to downgrade to the prevous version? | 16:18 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: Except that chromium is open-source | 16:18 |
| xangua | moxbox: clean install if you want oneiric withouth upgrade twice | 16:18 |
| louigi | hey guys! using ubuntu 10.04. When I call out a program in terminal (specimen ~/Sessions/project1) it opens and opens project1. If I create a launcher on panel and put same line in command, it will open the program but not the project. Anything I am doing wrong? | 16:18 |
| Lartza | VEndix: Reinstall | 16:18 |
| prt1990 | well gimp is not productive like photoshop | 16:18 |
| HeatMzzr | using chat in console or tty screen, the screen resolution is screwed up.. only using a qtr of the screen available with the rest of the screen unused.. how do I address that please??? | 16:18 |
| louigi | Interpretation of command different in launcher? | 16:18 |
| xangua | moxbox: and alos oneiric is not released and unsupported on this channel | 16:18 |
| szad | extraclassic, how to view windows shares? I cant do it. | 16:19 |
| VEndix | Lartza: downgrading is not reinstalling | 16:19 |
| ParkerR | "<Lartza> ParkerR: Also the chrome.google.com probably spits files all over your filesystem" and why would the Chrome package be any different than the Chromium? | 16:19 |
| Akuw | i just installed ubuntu 9.04 | 16:19 |
| arfbtwn | prt1990: AFAIK the gimp can do all that photoshop can do, if you want to run photoshop you'll need to use wine, but it probably won't work ;) | 16:19 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: Yes | 16:19 |
| extraclassic | szad: i mount a folder in fstab, or nautilus has a way to view them | 16:19 |
| Lartza | ParkerR: ACtually it does | 16:19 |
| Dmole | prt1990: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=17 | 16:19 |

| extraclassic | szad: there are some articles online that are detailed | 16:20 |
| ParkerR | I go to Synaptic and check it to uninstall | 16:20 |
| szad | extraclassic, dont know how to mount that folder, and nautilus after entering "Web" says error | 16:20 |

| Spikestuff | I installed Ubuntu 11.04 via Wubi on Windows Vista, so now there is a few partitions I have, Ubuntu, Windows Vista, etc. I want to simply have a full, clean installation of Ubuntu. How would I go upon doing this? I didn't use a CD/DVD because I was given this laptop, and the previous owner doesn't remember the BIOS password. | 16:21 |
| obeyance | Ok i restarted and logged in under safe mode and everythign is working correctly. Looks just like the previous 2 versions on the UI too. That side bar thing is gone. How do i get normal mode to revert to these settings? | 16:21 |
| Spikestuff | So, unfortunately, I can't change the boot priority... | 16:21 |

| prt1990 | which software in ubuntu will be good for song editing? | 16:22 |
| DanaG | Lartza: install gpm | 16:23 |
| Dmole | Rigin: gimp is missing many photoshop features (it is however quite good for most people) | 16:23 |
| DanaG | it'll give you console mouse. | 16:23 |
| Spikestuff | Hold on, ActionParsnip, let me try that. | 16:23 |
| Lartza | DanaG: I don't have a mouse | 16:23 |
| szal | Spikestuff: either what ActionParsnip said, or, if the warranty has expired, open the case & reset the BIOS (should be in the manual how to do that, I guess; normally it's taking out the BIOS buffer battery & changing and re-changing a jumper) | 16:23 |
| extraclassic | prt1990: ardour is a DAW | 16:23 |

| Dmole | milen8204: if you can't read the disk at all you should clean and buff the disk, if you have trouble after that you can use better hardware, if that fails you can use dd to make an image of it and inspect it for file recovery with some forensics tools from the backtrack ubuntu toolset or distrobution | 16:33 |

| ParkerR | Man I love WINE | 16:41 |
| grendal_prime | its gotten allot better thats for sure | 16:41 |
| climbe2 | I found /root, but not sure what to do from here | 16:41 |
| ActionParsnip | ParkerR: tis tasty :) | 16:41 |
| ParkerR | Hehe | 16:41 |
| dr-willis | climbe2: it maybe getting defined via uuid | 16:41 |
| dude | hi | 16:41 |
| ParkerR | Especially straight from the bottle XD | 16:41 |
| grendal_prime | its pretty good for introducing viri to your system as well hahahaha | 16:41 |
| ParkerR | Not really | 16:42 |
| climbe2 | all of the kernel versions have root=UUID=e3fd blah blah | 16:42 |
| ParkerR | Malware doesnt know what to do in a wine prefix | 16:42 |
| climbe2 | but none will boot | 16:42 |
| dr-willis | ived tested malware in wine. :) | 16:42 |
| ParkerR | It doesnt have a lot of the files they attack | 16:42 |
| ActionParsnip | grendal_prime: only in ~/.wine so who cares ;) | 16:42 |
| ParkerR | You can just delete the bottle :) | 16:43 |
| ParkerR | And make a new one | 16:43 |
| dr-willis | climbe2: tou could change it to root=/dev/sdxx then | 16:43 |
| Lartza | climbe2: Now am again :) | 16:43 |
| kwvarga | Installing ubuntu and resizing partition on 500gb harddrive, looks like it has been frozen at about 50% for about 30 minutes, only messages i can see in the little terminal window is networking/wireless related | 16:43 |
| kwvarga | Any ideas on how long it is supposed to take? Should i be worried | 16:44 |
| grendal_prime | ActionParsnip, ya...ive seen machines that have them but ya your right it doenst seem to go any further than that..funny article states...Linux just isn't user-friendly when it comes to viruses. You have to work to find and run them. It doesn't happen automatically as it does with Windows. The GNU/Linux folks really should improve this glaring discrepancy. | 16:44 |
| dr-willis | kwvarga: resizeing a 500gb ntfs? | 16:44 |
| climbe2 | sdxx...what is that? | 16:44 |
| kwvarga | ext4 | 16:44 |
| Lartza | climbe2: Your root partition | 16:44 |
| grendal_prime | http://www.linux.com/archive/feed/42031 | 16:44 |
| climbe2 | can't find /dev/sdb | 16:44 |
| grendal_prime | pretty funny. | 16:44 |
| dr-willis | climbe2: you said it was sdb ..... | 16:45 |
| Lartza | climbe2: /dev/sdaX then possibly | 16:45 |
| climbe2 | that's what i remember it being | 16:45 |
| kwvarga | dr-willis ext4 | 16:45 |
| greyster | oh well | 16:45 |
| climbe2 | I think sda has windows on it..the initial OS before I partitioned and added ubuntu | 16:45 |
| dr-willis | climbe2: it would be like sdb1 or similer. not just sdb | 16:45 |
| Lartza | climbe2: Partitions are sda1 sda2 sda3 | 16:45 |
| grendal_prime | just a note to anyone looking for a good machine. I love my acer aspire one d255. I cant do anything without it anymore. | 16:45 |
| Lartza | climbe2: so try sda2? | 16:45 |
| Lartza | or 3? | 16:45 |

| Lartza | Adam_: /etc/samba | 16:47 |
| grendal_prime | ActionParsnip, this thing is a netbook. with 4 atoms in it. First mutithreading atoms on market i believe. Pretty bad ass.. only thing it wont do is vritualization. | 16:47 |
| grendal_prime | and actuall it will do it..just that the hardware does not run it ..os does. wich is ..well slow. | 16:48 |

| maco | or damn small linux... | 16:51 |
| Lartza | What is this you are trying to compile | 16:51 |
| ActionParsnip | coppermine: you can use wicd, it has wicd-curses which is a nice text gui for wifi | 16:51 |
| Lartza | maco: Unmaintained | 16:51 |
| coppermine | ActionParsnip: comes with lubuntu? | 16:52 |
| maco | Lartza: still has a better chance of running on 192mb than ubuntu | 16:52 |
| Lartza | maco: Ubuntu is bloat :P | 16:52 |
| ActionParsnip | coppermine: you can change it, lubuntu comes with network manager | 16:52 |
| Lartza | *ed | 16:52 |

| KM0201 | there's nothing wrong w/ the server kernel. | 17:14 |
| Lartza | If I remember right | 17:14 |
| Lartza | KM0201: For desktop, it's less interactive and slower | 17:14 |
| KM0201 | install server edition, slap a GUI on top of it, if thats what you want to do. | 17:14 |
| === Wall is now known as walls | ||
| Lartza | KM0201: minimal install, GUI | 17:14 |
| TRiPTEC | Lartza, and I must say server worked for me for 2 years so it wasn't bad and I did alot of work on my old really shitty laptop | 17:14 |
| andrewS | blah. xchat & --> lets me continue to use that console window, but when it closes it also kills xchat. how exactly does the operating system run xchat from a gui link without showing the user a console window? | 17:15 |
| KM0201 | Lartza: not in my experience, but ok... and yeah, minimal install will do the exact same things | 17:15 |
| milen8204 | which is best program for virtual machine ? | 17:15 |
| Lartza | TRiPTEC: It's not bad just things are less interactive | 17:15 |
| Lartza | KM0201: Another kernel, not the server kernel | 17:15 |
| ActionParsnip | milen8204: there is no single best app for any single situation | 17:15 |
| Lartza | KM0201: Also the alternative cd has desktop pacakges like X on it while server doesnt but has apache etc | 17:15 |
| KM0201 | Lartza: i'm aware of that | 17:15 |
| ActionParsnip | milen8204: so the answer is: none and all | 17:15 |
| TRiPTEC | Lartza, as in not so flashy? | 17:15 |
| Lartza | TRiPTEC: Huh? | 17:15 |
| ActionParsnip | milen8204: it's as intelligent as asking "what is the best colour?" | 17:15 |
| elkuka | hi everyone, I-m new in ubuntu and need some help. I-m running live/usb now to resize partition. shrink 290 gb to 190. it-s been an hour at least with gparted. is it common to take that long!? | 17:15 |
| TRiPTEC | nm | 17:15 |
| KM0201 | TRiPTEC: what exact problem are u having? | 17:16 |
| Lartza | TRiPTEC: I neant you need itnernet to install X from server CD | 17:16 |
| GaToR | t | 17:16 |
| Lartza | TRiPTEC: But it is on alternative | 17:16 |
| milen8204 | ActionParsnip, ok which is most popular then others :D | 17:16 |
| Lartza | TRiPTEC: Install is not GUI in either | 17:16 |
| TheMatrix3000 | ok, i was installing a package | 17:16 |

| ActionParsnip | milen8204: qemu, virtualbox, vmware | 17:16 |

| BluesKaj | elkuka, don't cancel . resizing in my experience can take 4 hrs if there's a lot of data to move | 17:19 |
| TheMatrix3000 | i think i did a dpkg-reconfigure which may have screwed it up | 17:20 |

| dli | grimpirate, that's very old intel video, trouble in newer drivers (not well tested) | 18:05 |

| wasser | NCS_One, (or change) | 18:16 |

| jimbozone | it auto-set it to that of the 2nd monitor | 18:40 |
| dli | jimbozone, can you run xrandr? | 18:40 |

| cgermann | johnny_walker: find it in the "dash" than drag it back to the sidebar :) | 19:05 |

| ActionParsnip | johnny_walker: how do you mean "application button"? | 19:06 |
| johnny_walker | yes actionparsnip | 19:06 |
| johnny_walker | cgermann where is the dash? | 19:06 |
| MicroWolf | ActionParsnip: problem with that is sharing public links....what about an FTP server? I've heard and viewd things on them, but I'm not sure how to set one up, or even the principle of one | 19:06 |
| ActionParsnip | MicroWolf: sure. Old hardware make great fileservers | 19:07 |
| cgermann | johnny_walker:its that big thing that pops up when you hit the ubuntu button :) | 19:07 |

| Discovery | yes | 19:07 |
| MicroWolf | Tinfoil: yeah, i did | 19:07 |
| aetas | codehotter, ok, thats more reasonable | 19:07 |
| cgermann | johnny_walker: type in the name off the app you lost and drag the icon back | 19:07 |
| Tinfoil | Where would I locate missing files? | 19:07 |
| MicroWolf | ActionParsnip: I've gotta old win 95 (originally, now win2000pro) laptop, I could use that | 19:07 |
| johnny_walker | ahah it wont let me drag and drop any of the icons..........cgermann | 19:07 |
| MicroWolf | oh wait | 19:07 |
| MicroWolf | ActionParsnip: it doesn't have wifi card. damn. | 19:08 |
| ActionParsnip | MicroWolf: ftp is bad for security, especially for wan facing stuff. For lan its ok otherwise use sftp | 19:08 |
| cgermann | johnny_walker: it should it is just sloppy | 19:08 |

| johnny_walker | cgermann: wow really appreciate it man | 19:20 |
| aetas | ActionParsnip, I figured that would probably work too but I'd still like to know why his normal user can't do it | 19:20 |
| codehotter | aetas: ActionParsnip: While checking the mounts, I have discovered 'none on /sys/kernel/security type securityfs'. It contains a folder 'apparmor'. I am now googling 'apparmor linux' | 19:20 |
| cgermann | johnny_walker: No problem | 19:20 |
| TRiPTEC | I'd like to "reset to default" | 19:20 |
| aetas | codehotter, oooo...that looks like a winner | 19:20 |
| ActionParsnip | aetas: his "normal user" is root. He enabled the account and logged on. Fun and games | 19:21 |
| aetas | ActionParsnip, I use it if Im working with something although I don't run actual programs with it | 19:22 |
| aetas | well, on a non-server anyway | 19:22 |
| ActionParsnip | codehotter: could always boot live cd and edit the file there. I suspect apparmor is stopping you as the OS is not designed to have root logging in, nor is it needed. | 19:23 |
| johnny_walker | cgermann: oh also if you wouldnt mind do you know how to get an icon for zenmap | 19:23 |
| aetas | I'd have to agree with Action on this one | 19:24 |
| ActionParsnip | aetas: sudo -i lets you use root-like stuff but keep the actual root account locked | 19:24 |
| tamran | hi all, I'm curious if I've got a vanilla Ubuntu 11.04 install and I want to run (and test) KDE ... will it be a gigantic mess without removing gnome and unity components? | 19:24 |
| AlexDevilLX | Any advanced ubuntu tutorial? | 19:24 |
| tamran | I'm trying to avoid a situation where too many competing services start up when the computer boots ... which would bog everything down | 19:25 |
| codehotter | Didn't know about sudo -i. Is it preferred over sudo su -? | 19:25 |
| ThinkT510 | !manual | AlexDevilLX | 19:25 |

| ActionParsnip | codehotter: yes | 19:25 |
| johnny_walker | does anyone know how to get an icon for zenmap? | 19:25 |
| AlexDevilLX | Any linux testing? | 19:25 |
| codehotter | ActionParsnip: why? | 19:25 |
| edbian | tamran: It will be a bit of a mess but it will be usable. You'll have a lot of apps that do the same thing. The services might be very similar but even if they provide the same functionality they won't conflict / crash. | 19:26 |
| aetas | codehotter, cause it lets you keep the account locked so no one can actually login to it directly | 19:26 |
| tamran | edbian: is there a way to make certain services not run if I choose one desktop login over the other? | 19:26 |
| ActionParsnip | codehotter: its an (i)nteractive sudo session and is closer to if you run each command prefixed with sudo | 19:26 |
| tamran | edbian: I mean, I could manually kill them I guess, but if I'm using KDE it'd be nice to be running a tighter kde | 19:27 |
| edbian | tamran: Sure, System -> Preferences -> Statup | 19:27 |
| tamran | edbian: thanks for responding | 19:27 |
| codehotter | aetas: makes sense. | 19:27 |
| zykotick9 | edbian, those technically are not "services". tamran | 19:28 |
| codehotter | aetas: You've probably had this discussion before, but why do you prefer I don't login with root? | 19:28 |
| ActionParsnip | codehotter: does: gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces work as your first user? | 19:28 |
| edbian | zykotick9: true :) | 19:28 |
| edbian | tamran: sure. | 19:28 |
| codehotter | ActionParsnip: First of all, this is a console session, not a graphical session. Surely you don't believe I would start my graphical shell as root? | 19:28 |
| aetas | codehotter, its more about what its being used for | 19:28 |
| edbian | codehotter: If someone wrote some malicious code and you ran it they code would be able to do much more as root rather than just you. | 19:28 |
| dr-willis | codehotter: seen it done befor :) | 19:29 |
| edbian | they could* | 19:29 |
| aetas | codehotter, like me, Ill hop into it if I need root access for awhile but I won't run programs and "use" the account | 19:29 |
| edbian | codehotter: This includes some things you might not think about like java in the browser. | 19:29 |
| tamran | I have two more questions: 1) KDM vs GDM (I like KDM much better), but if I decide to run gnome is that going to be another mess? 2) What is the proper install package to install KDE? (one is kubuntu-desktop and other is KDE) | 19:29 |
| boehme | Anybody on handy with mounting problems? | 19:30 |
| ActionParsnip | codehotter: you run EVERY process as root if you log in as root. Web browsers, email clients, everything. So a malicious web script will get full system access and can run riot on your OS | 19:30 |
| dr-willis | biggest danger i see to a system in here are typos while root. | 19:30 |
| GreenDance | Hi | 19:30 |
| edbian | tamran: KDE does not require KDM and vice versa | 19:30 |
| allowoverride | agrees with edbian but it does require an Xserver | 19:30 |
| edbian | tamran: Just like gnome does not require GDM. the gnome and kde packages are meta packages that include a bunch of gnome and KDE stuff respectively | 19:30 |
| zykotick9 | tamran, "kde" is the debian packages. kubuntu-desktop is a more Ubuntuized package. | 19:30 |
| johnny_walker | does anyone know how to add icons to an application in ubuntu 11.04 | 19:30 |
| tamran | edbian: well, KDM is much nicer IMHO ... I can do theming and such a lot better | 19:30 |
| codehotter | ActionParsnip: you missed the part where this isn't a graphical shell, and I'm administrating the system, using another system - one with a graphical shell - to check the web and my email. | 19:30 |
| tamran | zykotick9: ok, so KDE is a bit tighter? | 19:31 |
| zykotick9 | tamran, ? you'd have to test. | 19:31 |
| edbian | tamran: sure, use whichever you like :) | 19:31 |
| edbian | What makes a DE 'tight'? | 19:31 |
| aetas | boehme, just ask | 19:31 |
| tamran | edbian: well, it's nicer (my pref). | 19:31 |
| boehme | alright... Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with: | 19:32 |
| boehme | mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdb1 is already mounted on / | 19:32 |
| boehme | mount failed | 19:32 |
| aetas | he means pretty | 19:32 |
| aetas | like a little girl | 19:32 |
| ActionParsnip | codehotter: basically logging on as not root gives huge security which you gutted from your OS. The fact that you are asking WHY its bad shows your ignorance and is exactly why you should NOT log on as root and re-disable the account | 19:32 |
| aetas | boehme, so mtab says its mounted but its actually not? | 19:32 |
| boehme | yep | 19:32 |
| zykotick9 | tamran, don't be surprised if the "kde" package fails, I know "gnome" does. So kubuntu-desktop might still be what you use. | 19:32 |
| aetas | boehme, what partition type? | 19:32 |
| johnny_walker | join #web | 19:33 |
| Eighteens | i want to rotate my desktop as a sphere, currently i can only rotate as a cube, does that mean my video card isn't powerfull enough? because i don't see the option in compizconfig settings manager | 19:33 |
| boehme | aetas: The partition is a fat32 | 19:33 |
| edbian | codehotter: Why does code need a gui to be malicious? | 19:33 |
| AlexDevilLX | 10/20 on linux quiz good or bad result for rookie? | 19:33 |
| aetas | boehme, what about cat /proc/mounts? | 19:33 |
| tamran | zykotick9: kubuntu-desktop on top of vanilla ubuntu install? I'm guessing it'd be a mess? | 19:33 |
| zykotick9 | Eighteens, you need the extra fusion packages, and then it's deformations in ccsm. | 19:33 |
| Eighteens | zykotick9: thank you | 19:34 |
| zykotick9 | tamran, not really | 19:34 |
| edbian | tamran: It's only a 'mess' in that lots of apps are installed. Many of them do the same thing. one for gnome and one for KDE. It works fine other than that. | 19:34 |
| codehotter | edbian: I'm not executing anything except stuff that came out official ubuntu repositories. | 19:34 |
| aetas | codehotter, basically just do what you want with your computer but know the consequences of using it. thats mainly it | 19:34 |
| tamran | edbian: oh, so it won't try and run gnome services and kde services at the same time? | 19:35 |
| codehotter | aetas: that's fair. I like to know what I'm doing, but I can't for the life of me figure out why I can't write to /etc/network/interfaces | 19:35 |
| ActionParsnip | codehotter: its not the apps themselves. Its what others can do to those apps | 19:35 |
| boehme | aetas: ummm I dont really understand the output but I dont see anything about sdb1 | 19:35 |
| codehotter | aetas: grep -r interfaces /etc/apparmor.d/ returns only a comment | 19:35 |
| codehotter | ActionParsnip: what do you mean others can do to those apps? What apps? Apps in the official ubuntu repos can have malicious code? | 19:36 |
| edbian | codehotter: It's like a firewall. You could either default allow and selectively pick stuff to close or default deny and selectively pick stuff to open. default deny is more secure. the same is true in running as root. You might accidentally delete a file or do something as root that you ment to do as a user. And what if someone was logged on as you via ssh or otherwise? | 19:36 |
| aetas | boehme, yeah probably not mounted then. um...have you tried running a check against the partition to see if its still ok? | 19:36 |
| edbian | tamran: I am not sure. Even if it did they would not cause problems with each other. I am working on a machine that has gnome, kde, xfce, ice, and a few others installed right now. Everything works fine :) | 19:36 |

| edbian | codehotter: That's just the first hit from google | 19:38 |
| aetas | codehotter, you need to look at those rules more closely...they have a lot of wildcards in there so its probably just filtering out all of /etc/network | 19:38 |
| oCean | AlexDevilLX: do you have a support question? | 19:38 |
| boehme | aetas: not really sure what that means, but I do know I've had this error before and it has magically fixed itself and I've been able to mount in both ubuntu and windows before | 19:38 |
| reagle | Hello everyone, I'm trying to migrate from encfs to ecryptfs. Everything is working well, I can even mount my directories as user (specified in fstab and u/mount is 's'). *However* I can't umount those partitions *unless* I had mounted them with the '-i' option. Why would that be? | 19:38 |
| aetas | boehme, yeah you need to scan it, it means the partition has errors....sometimes they will fix themselves especially if this is a windows partition and you boot it up | 19:39 |

| Ali__ | hello! | 19:39 |

| ikonia | rannmann: EDITOR=/usr/bin/vim for example | 19:40 |
| vlt | rannmann: Maybe by exporting $EDITOR (don't ask me how). | 19:40 |
| vlt | rannmann: what ikonia says ;-) | 19:40 |

| tamran | here is a question about unity. The side panel seems nice and all ... but is there a way to put that in the top panel? | 19:41 |
| rannmann | ikonia: In .bashrc? Because I tried that both with alias and export and it doesn't seem to be working. | 19:41 |
| aetas | boehme, hold on | 19:41 |
| Eighteens | zykotick9: thanks that did the trick, rotates as a spere now, thanks for the tip! however it took away the option to rotate as a cube... any ideas, only rotates as a spere now | 19:41 |
| Eighteens | s/spere sphere | 19:42 |
| zykotick9 | Eighteens, sorry I've never run into that issue before. You might want to try asking in #compiz if you don't get an answer here. Best of luck. | 19:42 |
| ThinkT510 | rannmann: did you log out and back in after editing .bashrc | 19:43 |
| Eighteens | zykotick9, ok, thanks again | 19:43 |
| Ali__ | sorry, i wanna unzip a file in my ssh but system always can get what i want foe example i waned to unzip this file rio fa .zip but it can't what should i do? | 19:43 |
| aetas | boehme, try "apt-get install testdisk" I haven't used this one but it looks like it may work. The easiest solution is letting Windows do it or using a Windows boot cd | 19:43 |
| zykotick9 | Eighteens, WAIT to use cube just disable deformation | 19:43 |
| rannmann | ThinkT510: I did, and I also used source .bashrc. | 19:43 |
| Eighteens | zy, i just dont see the option for cube anymore, and after i installed it, only rotates as sphere, i will look again | 19:44 |

| ChrisBuchholz | Hey guys. Is it possible to change the Super-key behavior in Unity from reacting when the key is down till when its actually pressed down and released? It annoys me that it reacts on keydown, because then you cant use it for any other shortcuts, but you can if it uses a regular keypress event | 19:44 |
| vlt | Ali__: What exactly did you do trying to unzip it? | 19:45 |
| tfdev | http://paste.ubuntu.com/648519/ I did an md5 with winmd5free and it matched. On windows now so I can reply quicker. Thanks. | 19:45 |

| edbian | codehotter: ha :) | 19:46 |
| edbian | codehotter: sure | 19:46 |
| codehotter | aetas: it's not filtering out everything in /etc/network since I can create files there | 19:46 |
| Ali__ | vlt:: a zip file like this xxx xxx.zip | 19:46 |
| vlt | ThinkT510: Sounds like very bad (and dangerous) script design. | 19:46 |
| vlt | Ali__: You did a zip file? | 19:46 |
| codehotter | aetas: I grepped for 'network' as well and don't see anything | 19:46 |
| ThinkT510 | vlt: my thoughts exactly, shouldn't hardcode paths like that | 19:47 |
| aetas | codehotter, can you pastebin it | 19:47 |
| spow | ThinkT510: I managed to move it today when sdb crashed, the device then appeared as sdc and I was able to run the script | 19:47 |
| codehotter | aetas: pastebin what, exactly? | 19:47 |
| Ali__ | vlt:: yeah, with this , unzip xx xx.zip | 19:47 |
| aetas | codehotter, the file obviously :) | 19:47 |
| vlt | Ali__: Try to put the file name in quotes. | 19:47 |
| Eighteens | zykotick9, you were right, i turned off or unchecked "enable cube reflection and deformation" and it's back to cube mode, thanks that worked, nice to have both options... much appreciated your input | 19:47 |
| codehotter | aetas: I have figured out how to disable apparmor (put it in complain mode, that is). No luck, still permission denied. | 19:47 |
| acicula | spow: id guess you could do it with a udev rule? | 19:48 |
| szal | Ali__: on the terminal you need to escape certain characters such as whitespaces.. try tabbing the filename, that should do that for you | 19:48 |

| aetas | codehotter, what was the command you used to disable it? | 19:49 |
| aetas | nah, we've been through all that | 19:49 |
| boehme | aetas: I've got this line in fstab "/dev/sda1 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1" | 19:49 |

| zykotick9 | Eighteens, glad to help. | 19:49 |
| codehotter | aetas: neither worked | 19:49 |

| acicula | rannmann: whats the output of suda aa-status, also what is the problem you are experiencing? | 19:57 |
| edbian | tfdev: What is unusual about this? | 19:57 |
| dli | kion, upgrade in software-center | 19:58 |
| rannmann | acicula: I don't have sudo access. This is a shared webserver. | 19:58 |
| ocx | i have /home/private mounted as ro and want /home/shared to be rw | 19:58 |
| acicula | kion: eh you can build custom kernels from source, but its probably not needed | 19:58 |
| ocx | aetas | 19:58 |
| ThinkT510 | !latest | kion | 19:58 |
| dli | kion, and of course, you have to reboot after new kernel installed | 19:58 |
| ubottu | kion: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 19:58 |
| codehotter | acicula: every program. In particular, I want to use 'mv' /root/interfaces to /etc/network/interfaces | 19:58 |
| ParkerR | dli, why would you use software center to upgrade our kernel? | 19:58 |
| rannmann | acicula: I'm just trying to change my default editor to vim. It should be working, but when I crontab -e, it opens in nano. | 19:58 |

| kion | dli: I meant the latest within Ubuntu | 19:58 |

| tfdev | edbian: the unallocated space was originally a primary boot partition with nothing on it. I dont remember partitioning it... just a little strange to me | 19:59 |
| ParkerR | kion, press alt + f2 then gksu synaptic | 19:59 |
| acicula | rannmann: try /usr/bin/vim instead of vim | 19:59 |
| codehotter | acicula: id shows uid=0,gid=0,groups=0, whoami shows root | 19:59 |
| tfdev | edbian: I deleted it to make use of it | 19:59 |

| rannmann | acicula: I already tried that. | 19:59 |
| codehotter | aetas: No. everything says 0 | 19:59 |

| ParkerR | No | 20:00 |

| em | ParkerR: im thinking about installing it to run spotify | 20:00 |
| dli | rannmann, do this: put EDITOR=vim in your profile (~/.bash_profile ~/.bashrc, etc. | 20:00 |
| ParkerR | I was just playing Portal 2 with it | 20:00 |
| acicula | em: spotify has a linux client | 20:00 |

| acicula | though might still need a payed sub | 20:00 |
| ParkerR | acicula, but the linux client you have to have premium | 20:01 |

| edbian | SSetoo: That is not a question though :) | 20:20 |
| ronqbc | edbian, what? | 20:20 |
| SSetoo | and if a window is between two desktops | 20:21 |

| edbian | mang0: it is yes | 20:23 |
| aetas | he means hes going to have to manually remove it :p | 20:23 |
| pappa_bear | that is an ubuntu related question | 20:23 |
| pappa_bear | if i wanted to ask windows users i'd have gon to their channel | 20:24 |
| edbian | mang0: It's in universe (but this probably won't help us remove it) | 20:24 |
| climbe2 | although i cannot boot from any ubuntu kernels, is there at least a way to save my files and re-install? | 20:24 |
| rww | pappa_bear: Your book preferences aren't an Ubuntu technical support question. Please go ask #ubuntu-offtopic :) | 20:24 |

| edbian | mang0: sure :) | 20:24 |
| Akuw | hi | 20:24 |
| Akuw | i have ubuntu 9.04 | 20:24 |
| mang0 | what's the differance between "Removal" and "Complete removal" edbian ? | 20:24 |
| pappa_bear | rww, but my goal is to be of better help, technically, to the Ubuntu user group | 20:25 |
| Akuw | where is the menu.lst, i can`t find it | 20:25 |
| edbian | mang0: complete removal removes settings files in /etc/ and such as well as the actual program executable | 20:25 |
| mang0 | ah, okay. that's what I want to do. I'm going to dual boot instead :) | 20:25 |
| edbian | pappa_bear: :) | 20:25 |
| edbian | mang0: virtual box is not dual boot :) | 20:25 |
| edbian | mang0: It allows you to run two os's at the same time on one machine | 20:26 |
| pappa_bear | edbian, lol | 20:26 |
| mang0 | edbian: exactly, i'm deleting vb in favour of dual boot | 20:26 |
| mang0 | lol | 20:26 |
| edbian | mang0: ahhh :) | 20:26 |
| mang0 | ;) | 20:26 |
| pappa_bear | edbian, just stirring the nest a little.. :D | 20:26 |
| edbian | mang0: Sure, was virtual box installed via repos? | 20:26 |
| acicula | pappa_bear: the linux bible, used to be, just a deadtree version of publicly available faqs and howtos | 20:26 |

| edbian | pappa_bear: I love helping here and I didn't read a book to learn how :) | 20:26 |
| mang0 | edbian: yes, I remember reading the description now | 20:26 |
| aetas | acicula, yeah but in all fairness do you think one of those "hacking" books is better? | 20:26 |

| edbian | tfdev: I am quite sure I saw errors in your paste regarding difficulty reading the hdd. I have seen this crash many a live boot before. I want to confirm there are problems with the hdd and not any other part of the computer. software or hardware | 20:27 |
| edbian | climbe2: sure, boot a live CD :) | 20:27 |
| climbe2 | haha...can't boot a live C | 20:27 |
| climbe2 | d | 20:27 |
| edbian | climbe2: and connect something to the computer where you can boot all this data | 20:27 |
| tfdev | edbian: thanks :) | 20:27 |

| mang0 | edbian: I used to dual boot winXP and ubuntu, but my computer messed up, had to reformat both hdds, I reinstalled ubuntu and now I'm reinstalling windows after trying VB :P | 20:28 |
| edbian | mang0: You can install something in the terminal from the repos. I do it all the time | 20:28 |
| mang0 | ah | 20:28 |
| edbian | mang0: FYI, this is going to mess up your bootloader grub but it is a known issue and there is a fix. | 20:28 |
| Numn | are they a way to update to 11.04 but still have stuff from 10.10 i think unity is to much like Windows 7 :) | 20:28 |

| ubottu | Numn: The default interface in Ubuntu 11.04 is !Unity. To switch back to regular !GNOME: log out, click your username, click the Session box at the bottom of the screen, and select "Ubuntu Classic". | 20:29 |
| mrdeb | do you think 128mb dedicated video is enough for ubuntu | 20:29 |
| aetas | acicula, they're not terrible for security stuff but he wanted a book to get him brought up to speed on general stuff which they usually aren't much help with | 20:29 |
| edbian | mrdeb: more than enough | 20:30 |
| Testtube1 | Anyone real familiar with the boot process for ubuntu | 20:30 |
| rww | Testtube1: best to just ask your actual question | 20:30 |
| Testtube1 | rww Makes sense :P | 20:30 |
| Testtube1 | What in /boot gets stored in memory? | 20:30 |
| ha1dfo | Hi all. In unity, how can I configure ALT-TAB to exclude iconified windows? | 20:31 |
| ronqbc | can anyone tell me what can i do if the login screen doesn't appears after the screen had been locked? | 20:31 |
| Numn | rww: i know that, but i think unity to much | 20:31 |
| ha1dfo | actually it is unity 2d, if it matters | 20:31 |
| rww | Numn: If you read the second sentence, it tells you how to make it go away. | 20:31 |
| edbian | Testtube1: Probably all of it. Anything that is run or read when the system boots. i can't imagine anything that would be in there but NOT used during boot time. | 20:31 |
| tfdev | Hold on to your butts... | 20:31 |
| edbian | tfdev: holding | 20:32 |
| Numn | rww: yea i know but i have 10.10 right now.. im still want have it like 10.10 but still be updated wihtout unity | 20:32 |
| rww | Numn: Please specify what you mean by "like 10.10" | 20:32 |
| exutux | Testtube1: what's your intend about "memory" ram? | 20:32 |
| mang0 | Numn you can run 11.04 without unity | 20:32 |
| Testtube1 | Edbian i believe you are correct. So what if i took the system through a process that reimages the system including /dev/sda1 where /boot lives and then the system goes down for a shutdown. Will whatever is in memory write to disk and change the files that i just laid down? | 20:32 |
| Testtube1 | I think i have a pretty massive issue with 1200 units. | 20:33 |
| tfdev | edbian: Ok 0 error scroll, on ubuntu loading screen... and there's the desktop... much faster | 20:33 |
| Numn | rww: uhm.. Like without Unity i think.. | 20:33 |
| edbian | tfdev: hdd is the prob | 20:33 |
| Noobuntu | Why is there MenuEditor for, if Unity's menus are not customizzable? | 20:33 |
| edbian | Testtube1: no | 20:33 |
| rww | Numn: Then again, consider actually reading the second sentence of what ubottu told you. | 20:33 |
| Testtube1 | We reimaged 1200 units out in the field /dev/sda1 was the first image that was laid down. the system went down for a reboot came back up normally but now that its time for a forced fsck i am having issues with /boot | 20:33 |
| edbian | Testtube1: the system usually does not randomly overwrite stuff it doesn't agree with :P | 20:34 |
| edbian | tfdev: Now fixing it :( the hard part | 20:34 |
| edbian | Testtube1: What issues are you having? | 20:34 |
| Testtube1 | edbian When the system comes online with a fsck it makes mention of a file with a modified date that is prior to the laydown of the image? | 20:34 |
| ronqbc | can anyone tell me what can i do if the login screen doesn't appears after the screen had been locked? | 20:35 |
| tfdev | edbian: aye. I freqeuntly see ads for hdd fix software... think any of them will help? I have used tuneup utilities before and was happy with performance. | 20:35 |
| tfdev | Tuneup utilites is for windows | 20:35 |
| edbian | Testtube1: The system time is wrong on either the image or the system that's being imaged. That's my guess | 20:36 |
| Testtube1 | So fo example if we made a image on 11/19/2010 and distributed to 1200 players on 11/23/2010 once the force fsck comes around it is complaining about inode issues with a file that was modfied on 11/20/2010 | 20:36 |
| Testtube1 | and i am not sure how that is possible because we blew everything away on 11/23/2010 | 20:36 |
| edbian | tfdev: That's a waste of time in my opinion. Hang on | 20:36 |
| sudokill | tuneup utilities falls into a similar boat as all the other "pc speed accelerator" programs | 20:36 |
| * tfdev is still gripping butt | 20:36 | |
| rww | Testtube1: Presumably the imaging process is retaining the timestamps from when the files were modified when you were building the image. | 20:37 |
| edbian | Testtube1: I think the clock is wrong on the remote systems. | 20:37 |
| Testtube1 | edbian this is on all the systems | 20:37 |
| Numn | rww: what i meant was that if they are any way to get it like ubuntu 10.10 without unity.. and using that droplist you talking about. | 20:37 |
| pappa_bear | anyone know why i can't connect to the repositories to update my system? | 20:37 |
| Testtube1 | and the rest of the time stamps match 11/23/2010 | 20:37 |
| sudokill | pappa_bear, try changing the mirror | 20:37 |
| rww | Numn: And as I've said three times now, the second sentence of that factoid is giving you instructions for doing that. | 20:37 |
| edbian | tfdev: Try to make this: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 20:37 |
| edbian | Testtube1: mmm, yes. Wouldn't be wrong on ALL of them | 20:38 |
| edbian | Testtube1: the rest? | 20:38 |
| ntr0py | On my old maverick there was /usr/lib/dri/vdpau_drv_video.so from nvidia-current... where did this file went on Natty? | 20:38 |
| Testtube1 | edbian the rest of the files in /boot are indeed timestamped 11/23/2010 which matches the deployment of the image. | 20:38 |
| edbian | Testtube1: I'm not sure what is 'the rest' and what is 'the original' | 20:39 |
| ronqbc | can anyone tell me what can i do if the login screen doesn't appears after the screen had been locked? | 20:39 |
| edbian | Testtube1: This is the timestamp of the file on the image? | 20:39 |
| pappa_bear | W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/mactellsupport/ppa/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/binary-i386/Packages 404 Not Found | 20:39 |
| Testtube1 | edbian we blew /boot EG /dev/sda1 away when we laid the image down. on 11/23/2010 | 20:39 |
| Testtube1 | however fsck is complaining about a corrupt file with a stamp of 11/20/2010 | 20:39 |

| mang0 | sorry was afk | 20:40 |
| mang0 | what? | 20:40 |

| mang0 | yeah | 20:41 |

| mrfoobar | why are window controls on the wrong side of the windows? | 20:41 |
| edbian | Testtube1: Does the 'corrupt' file exist (with that timestamp) in the image? | 20:41 |
| Testtube1 | The only way i can make since of the situation is the machine booted on or near 11/20/2010 then we rolled out our image on 11/23/2010 and then had the machine reboot and something from memory wrote down to a file? | 20:41 |
| Testtube1 | no its 11/23/2010 | 20:41 |
| mrfoobar | how do you fix them | 20:41 |
| edbian | mrfoobar: To make room for a feature that never got made! | 20:42 |
| edbian | haha | 20:42 |
| mang0 | cya guys tommorow! | 20:42 |
| mrfoobar | well how do you fix this | 20:42 |
| Testtube1 | and interesting enough if we take a completly clean machine and we lay the image down and FSCK it its completly fine. | 20:42 |
| edbian | Testtube1: so in the image it's correct but on any machine that got imaged it's wrong? | 20:42 |
| tfdev | edbian: k connected via web. Checking into live usb disk. | 20:42 |

| DrSlony | thanks | 20:45 |
| edbian | mrfoobar: hang on | 20:45 |
| carbon357 | drslony : nope, other then maybe changing your port for security. Well in 10.04 anyways | 20:45 |

| Noor_egy | hello i have propleme that i was installed ubiuntu with windows then i reinstaled windows i tried to recover the ubuntu grab but after i did that every time i try to acess windows it gives me invalid signature this is the result of ( fdisk -l http://paste.ubuntu.com/648552/ ) and this is the result of grub.cfg ( http://paste.ubuntu.com/648554/ ) could any one have look on them plz | 20:45 |
| cyperbg | exutux I will try, thank you :) | 20:45 |
| edbian | Somebody know the factoid to get ubottu to tell mrfoobar how to switch the close max min buttons on his windows to the right side | 20:45 |
| dr_willis | !controls | 20:45 |
| ubottu | Starting in Lucid, the minimize, maximize, and close buttons have been moved to the left side. For more informationand workarounds, please see http://pad.lv/532633 | 20:45 |

| aikInsaan | I am using Natty (w/o Unity) on an intel celeron 2.4GHz with 1gb ram, intel 82845GL graphics card and the system response is laggy....looking for suggestions to improve performance | 20:46 |
| cyperbg | exutux, my user logins automatically, so that won't be a problem, right? | 20:46 |
| edbian | dr_willis: thanks | 20:46 |
| zykotick9 | edbian, !controls don't have the instructions anymore, it previously linked to my google-sites page - but I removed the page, and not the IRC admins to update the factoid. | 20:46 |
| edbian | mrfoobar: Did you see what ? | 20:46 |
| mrfoobar | whay | 20:46 |
| zykotick9 | s/not/got/ | 20:46 |
| edbian | zykotick9: omg | 20:47 |
| maco | aikInsaan: more ram, or lubuntu? | 20:47 |
| exutux | cyperbg: right, but depend about script.... | 20:47 |
| bahamas10 | i got a tough one, i'm using 10.04 server and i was SSH'd in, out of nowhere i got "remote host closed the connection" and now i can't SSH in, i can't access it over port 80, but i can ping it | 20:47 |
| cyperbg | I will try and report back :) | 20:47 |
| edbian | bahamas10: firewall? | 20:47 |
| Numn | ThinkT510: Ok, i know exackly. but i mean like erased from the system like its 10.10? | 20:47 |
| bahamas10 | all of my connections to my server appear to hang, port 80 just stays at loading | 20:47 |
| exutux | cyperbg: yup | 20:47 |
| carbon357 | bahamas : can't do a physical reboot ? | 20:47 |
| aikInsaan | maco: i am looking for more of a software solution...any configs on Natty that can improve performance? | 20:47 |
| bahamas10 | edbian: i was thinking that, but i'm SSH'd into a server next to it on a switch, so when i try to ssh from there it shouldn't touch a firewall | 20:48 |
| edbian | bahamas10: mmm, IDK | 20:48 |
| bahamas10 | carbon357: i'm actually trouble shooting this remotely | 20:48 |
| edbian | bahamas10: Is go to it. | 20:48 |
| edbian | bahamas10: go to the machine, log in locally | 20:48 |
| ThinkT510 | Numn: that is hard to do since unity is a custom shell built on top of gnome components, so i would leave it there | 20:48 |
| bahamas10 | edbian: that's what i'm gonna try tonight | 20:48 |
| dr_willis | bahamas10: it could be its had some filesystem issues. so wanting someone to hit 'ok' for a fsck message. | 20:48 |
| edbian | bahamas10: nmap it | 20:48 |
| bahamas10 | i'm thinking a process has pegged a cpu and is not allowing an external connections to be processed | 20:49 |
| tfdev | edbian: i was *eventually* booting into ubuntu, everything was just taking huge amounts of time. Just in case I wasn't clear earlier. Installing tuxboot to seperate flashdrive. | 20:49 |
| bahamas10 | nmap reveals all the ports open i would expect | 20:49 |
| carbon357 | bahamas10 : what other services are running on the server ? | 20:49 |
| Numn | ThinkT510: so you mean its would make gnome or ubuntu unstable? | 20:49 |
| bahamas10 | 22,80,443 | 20:49 |
| bahamas10 | carbon357: it's an nginx server on 80 and 443, and mostly a minecraft server i run for some friends | 20:49 |
| ThinkT510 | Numn: trying to remove unity would likely remove a large part of gnome dependancies, which you need to run gnome | 20:50 |
| bahamas10 | most likely a process went crazy, spiked to 100% and is stopping new connections from being created | 20:50 |
| Tru3fate | im thinking of fully making my desktop ubuntu, what vmware can use on. and what ubuntu should i have to do this. | 20:50 |
| maco | aikInsaan: if there's file indexing, turn it off. i dont know if there is though. could get rid of avahi daemon i guess. could ditch sane and cups if no printer/scanner. i dont really think there's a way to make an 8 year old machine /not/ be laggy though (celerons are just plain designed slow, for starters) | 20:50 |
| Noor_egy | hello i have propleme that i was installed ubiuntu with windows then i reinstaled windows i tried to recover the ubuntu grab but after i did that every time i try to acess windows it gives me invalid signature this is the result of ( fdisk -l http://paste.ubuntu.com/648552/ ) and this is the result of grub.cfg ( http://paste.ubuntu.com/648554/ ) could any one have look on them plz | 20:50 |
| bahamas10 | if i telnet <server> 22 it says connection established, but i never get the openssh server banner | 20:50 |
| edbian | tfdev: looks good. I've never installed gparted so you're on your own there. Ask me questions if you want but I'll just read the tutorial I linked | 20:50 |
| tfdev | edbian: okay, embarassing nub time: the tut says to make the file executable and gives me a command line.. I enter this into terminal right? | 20:50 |
| Testtube1 | yes means you chmod +x filename | 20:51 |
| edbian | tfdev: where are you in the tutorial? | 20:51 |
| aikInsaan | maco: thanks. i'll look into those areas....i know its a crappy old machine...just wanna make use for small things (like web browsing, little doc editing here, spreadsheet viewing) nothing else (like no video viewing, gaming, etc) | 20:51 |
| tfdev | If using GNU/Linux, make the file executable (using either the command "chmod +x ./tuxboot-linux*" | 20:52 |
| tfdev | edbian: ^^ in terminal? | 20:52 |
| Numn | ThinkT510: but i can still use 10.10 right? and update? | 20:52 |
| goodtime | yes tfdev | 20:52 |
| Testtube1 | tfdev open up the terminal browse to the file and type chmod +x filename | 20:52 |
| ThinkT510 | Numn: sure | 20:52 |
| kos2 | # Appears as ANNA | 20:52 |
| maco | aikInsaan: for future hardware purchases, i strongly recommend against celeron ;) they cost less because they put less on-chip memory in, so the cpu spends a lot of time going "now where did i put that data?" instead of doing stuff | 20:52 |
| edbian | tfdev: yes run that command | 20:52 |
| tfdev | thanks folks. i will learn | 20:52 |
| ThinkT510 | !update | Numn | 20:52 |

| mrfoobar | how do you smbmount so normal users have access to it? | 20:53 |
| carbon357 | bahamas10 : hmmm. can you netcat any of the ports. any thing returen. Sound like your right about something maybe hanging. Is it on a server farm or something. Think a reboot is the key here | 20:53 |
| Noor_egy1 | hello i have propleme that i was installed ubiuntu with windows then i reinstaled windows i tried to recover the ubuntu grab but after i did that every time i try to acess windows it gives me invalid signature this is the result of ( fdisk -l http://paste.ubuntu.com/648552/ ) and this is the result of grub.cfg ( http://paste.ubuntu.com/648554/ ) could any one have look on them plz | 20:53 |
| edbian | tfdev: Be sure to use my name. | 20:53 |
| dr_willis | mrfoobar: if you used the fstab and had a 'users' option. the users could mount/unmount the location set. | 20:54 |
| ha1dfo | just asking again, if somebody knows, in unity, how can I configure ALT-TAB to exclude minimized windows? | 20:54 |
| mrfoobar | there is no other way? | 20:54 |
| mrdeb | dr_willis: so you can mount without root? | 20:54 |
| Numn | ThinkT510: i mean like not upgrading to 11.04 and still update some other files that maybe needs to be updated :D | 20:54 |
| mrfoobar | can't i mount the location as root and have normal users access it? | 20:54 |
| dr_willis | mrdeb: via fstab yes.. theres also some fuse smb tools that give you a dynamic 'list of all shares on the network' feature | 20:54 |
| aikInsaan | maco: thanks for the tip...next my eyes are on macbook (air/pro)- good aren't they? | 20:54 |
| tfdev | edbian: next time I make love to my gf, make her call me edbian? She might not be okay with that but I figure it's the least I can do... | 20:54 |
| ThinkT510 | Numn: not sure what you mean | 20:54 |
| dr_willis | ha1dfo: check the settings in the ccsm tool. it can tweak the alt-tab plugin | 20:55 |
| dr_willis | !ccsm | ha1dfo | 20:55 |
| ubottu | ha1dfo: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 20:55 |
| mrdeb | dr_willis: o you have to visudo mount too for the user | 20:55 |
| edbian | tfdev: ha, you're gonna get in trouble with talk like that my friend | 20:55 |
| tfdev | edbian: ten-four, ill keep it pg. | 20:55 |
| dr_willis | mrdeb: Huh? | 20:55 |
| ha1dfo | dr_willis, thank you, i'll check | 20:55 |
| edbian | tfdev: :) | 20:55 |
| maco | aikInsaan: as far as i know, yes. i think theyre using core i5/i7 these days. "celeron" is always the current intel cpu but with that cache cut in half | 20:55 |
| mrdeb | so yes | 20:55 |
| dr_willis | mrdeb: the fstab file can have a 'users' option for specific mount points.. | 20:56 |
| dr_willis | mrdeb: allowing users to mount it. | 20:56 |
| Numn | ThinkT510: ok like update importan update and still not upgrade to 11.04 ;) | 20:56 |
| === mightymizo is now known as mizo | ||
| bahamas10 | carbon357: i'll try nc, it's just a standalone server, but since minecraft is java i'm guessing it spiked ram or cpu and that just messed it all up | 20:56 |
| ThinkT510 | Numn: you can stick with 10.10 if you like | 20:56 |
| ThinkT510 | !eol | Numn | 20:57 |
| ubottu | Numn: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 20:57 |
| mrdeb | dr_willis: that is for place only. what about hwen it asks for root. will it still ask for root | 20:57 |
| dr_willis | mrdeb: it depends on how you are mounting it.. you are not being clear on what you want to do. | 20:57 |
| aikInsaan | maco: should i expect a lot better experience on lubuntu (or other light weight derivatives)? | 20:57 |
| bahamas10 | carbon357: nc 10.0.1.10 22 returns nothing, it just hangs | 20:57 |
| ha1dfo | dr_willis, stupid question: is this ccsm work also with unity-2d? | 20:57 |
| carbon357 | bahamas10 : yeah mindcraft is a resource hog eh | 20:57 |
| dr_willis | ha1dfo: ccsm is the compiz setting manager.. unity uses compiz, but unity-2d does not. | 20:58 |
| maco | aikInsaan: i would think so. it should have fewer background processes running to try to make things "automagic" | 20:58 |
| bahamas10 | carbon357: yeah, i'm just wondering why now, i ran it for months, so i'm just speculating that minecraft is the culprit | 20:58 |
| mrdeb | dr_willis: mounts without root | 20:58 |
| cbx33 | sudo update-alternatives --config wish -- What else will that effect? | 20:58 |
| bahamas10 | carbon357: nc -vvvvv 10.0.1.10 22 | 20:58 |
| bahamas10 | Connection to 10.0.1.10 22 port [tcp/ssh] succeeded! | 20:58 |
| bahamas10 | .... then it hangs | 20:58 |
| Testtube1 | Noor_egy i think your grub file is wrong. | 20:58 |
| ha1dfo | dr_willis, I see. Then the alt-tab is done by metacity? | 20:58 |
| aikInsaan | maco: lubuntu's the way forward then..? | 20:58 |
| bahamas10 | same with ports 80 and 443 | 20:58 |
| dr_willis | mrdeb: make a fstab entry with the users option is the normal way to mount a location as a user. ...... theres no safe way to do a 'let users mount eveyrthing with no limitations' | 20:58 |
| dr_willis | ha1dfo: compiz replaces metacity.. | 20:59 |
| maco | aikInsaan: thats what we've been recommending for folks in your situation and why it was created :) | 20:59 |
| Testtube1 | Noor_egy it says menuentry "Windows 7 (on /dev/sdb1)" { | 20:59 |
| dr_willis | ha1dfo: compiz has perhaps 4 differnt plugins for the alt-tab task switcher. | 20:59 |
| Testtube1 | but your fdisk -l | 20:59 |
| aetas | bahamas10, is this a system you can only access through ssh? | 20:59 |
| Testtube1 | shows the boot partition on /dev/sda1 | 20:59 |
| ha1dfo | dr_willis, okay, but cannot run normal unity because of old GPU in laptop, so i can't use unity, i have to use unity 2d, so compiz is out, right? | 20:59 |
| under | Oh, dear. | 20:59 |
| dr_willis | ha1dfo: unity-2d does not use compiz. | 20:59 |
| dr_willis | ive no idea if unity-2d uses metacity, or mutter.. or what it does.. :) | 21:00 |
| ha1dfo | okay. | 21:00 |
| aikInsaan | yep gonna go for it maco | 21:00 |
| mrdeb | that sounds too hard dr_willis, so i will use udisks | 21:00 |
| ha1dfo | dr_willis, ps aux says metacity | 21:00 |
| aetas | has anyone kept unity? I lasted about 5 minutes with it | 21:00 |
| under | I'm from ubuntu live, I'm looking for diagnostic software, I think my SSD drive is broken. How can I check that? | 21:00 |
| tfdev | edbian: i ran the app after making it executable. Both by double clicking & "sudo ./tuxboot-linux-25" unfortunately nothing happened. No gui, terminal went back to accept another cmd | 21:01 |
| Numn | ThinkT510: i wish 10.10 is reviving in the future i really like it very much.. i dont like the new upgrades for ubuntu but that's my opinion | 21:01 |
| edbian | tfdev: let me take a look | 21:01 |
| aetas | under: I would started with seeing if its detected first | 21:01 |
| ThinkT510 | Numn: you could always try xfce or lxde if you don't like kde or gnome (xfce is my favourite) | 21:02 |
| under | aetas: not always it's seen at BIOS | 21:02 |
| edbian | tfdev: did you gksudo or sudo it? | 21:02 |
| tfdev | edbian: note* terminal did not ask for su pw | 21:02 |
| tfdev | sudo | 21:02 |
| Testtube1 | edbian There was a user in here with a question about a booting issue his grub is here http://paste.ubuntu.com/648554/ and his fdisk info is here http://paste.ubuntu.com/648552/ doesnt it appear that the grub entry down at the bottom refering to win7 is wrong? | 21:02 |
| dr_willis | sudo password is cached for a few min by default. | 21:02 |
| Broseph | is there an xclip equivalent for systems that don't have X installed? | 21:03 |
| Numn | ThinkT510: the thing is that i love gnome but yea your right i think should use another window mangement for my taste | 21:03 |
| aetas | under: I mean in linux | 21:03 |
| edbian | Testtube1: hang on | 21:03 |
| edbian | tfdev: what command did you run? | 21:03 |
| dr_willis | !info xclip | 21:03 |
| ubottu | xclip (source: xclip): command line interface to X selections. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.12-1 (natty), package size 19 kB, installed size 92 kB | 21:03 |
| carbon357 | bahamas10 : interesting. so making connections is not the issue. odd man. I can't think of anything else remotely off the top of my head | 21:03 |

| tardis | I'm not seeing the part where it's at all important that Unity's installed if you're not using it. | 21:09 |
| under | pirlo89: yes, i'm italian | 21:09 |
| dr_willis | ocx: as far as ive ever seen/noticed the nfs server sees him as his normal logged in user. thats how you can have nfs mounted /home/ dirs and so forth. | 21:09 |
| dr_willis | ocx: there may be nfs options to force/remap to other user names. | 21:09 |
| edbian | tfdev: How are you on linux right now? | 21:09 |
| ThinkT510 | Numn: another option is to use the mini iso and install what you want from there (get gnome without unity) | 21:09 |
| ocx | dr_willis: : i want to map certain users to certain remote users | 21:09 |
| ThinkT510 | !mini | Numn | 21:09 |

| Testtube1 | mandrake: on 11/23/2010 we created a image of /dev/sda1 that contains /boot we deployed it to 1200 ubuntu machines out in the field remotely. Once it came time for a forced fsck it shows data issues with a inode. The file that resides on the inode has a modfied date of 11/20/10 three days prior to when the image was deployed. | 21:26 |
| Testtube1 | obviously /dev/sda1 eg /boot was rebuilt on 11/23/10 | 21:26 |
| Testtube1 | why does this one file have a previous time stamp? | 21:26 |
| mandrake | I am thinking... | 21:27 |
| * ThinkT510 hears the mighty mandrake cogs starting to whir! | 21:28 | |
| Product | Hello. | 21:28 |
| Product | I would like to ask for help in CentOS, because I couldn't find it's channel. | 21:29 |
| Testtube1 | mandrake its my understanding that /boot alot of it or all of it is stored in "memory" its my theory that when the system booted on 11/20 and then rebooted on 11/23 after it recieved the image some data was written down to disk from the last time it booted (11/20/10) But i have been told this is not possible | 21:29 |
| mandrake | the next release of MAndrake LInux will have fix to this problem | 21:29 |
| sudokill | Product, centos? | 21:29 |
| Product | Yes Sudokill. | 21:29 |
| sudokill | product /join #centos then | 21:29 |
| mandrake | if you are in a computer everithyng is possible | 21:30 |
| Product | Ok | 21:30 |
| Product | Thank you very much. | 21:30 |

| qin | Testtube1: Do you have "mother" image somwhere? | 21:31 |
| Product | I can't join :( | 21:31 |
| tardis | P05TMAN: that's not what sed is for. Look into "man rename" | 21:31 |
| Product | It says it's not registered. | 21:31 |
| Testtube1 | qin: yes i do and i verified the time stamp is correct on the master image. | 21:31 |

| terry | P05TMAN: You just want to change the file names? | 21:31 |
| Product | Ok, thanks :) | 21:31 |
| Testtube1 | I also verified with md5sum that the file that was transfered remotely is the same. | 21:31 |
| mandrake | you ant to change the extension or the format? | 21:31 |
| Octodigit | hi folks. I've switched to teh open source ati driver on teh basis that I might be able to see compiz working for fun this evening, so I wonder if anyone has been through this process and got it working before me | 21:31 |
| P05TMAN | Terry: yes, the file extensions actually | 21:32 |
| Testtube1 | qin md5 check was actually performed prior to laying down the image. | 21:32 |
| Product | I would like to get only some help with the VPS, it has no GUI. | 21:32 |
| Octodigit | I'm on natty, I don't usually run the open source ati driver as it gets up to 65 degrees hotter than with fglrx and then I bottle it and switch off | 21:32 |
| qin | Testtube1: Did you try to deploy it, and simulate "problem"? | 21:32 |
| P05TMAN | Tardis: I will check that out, thank you | 21:32 |
| Product | I would be pleased if someone can chat with me on PM. | 21:32 |
| Testtube1 | qin: I did actually if i take a clean box and do it manually it works fine. | 21:32 |
| ikonia | Product: just ask your questions in the channel, and if someone can help they will | 21:33 |
| Product | It's actually a server setup. | 21:33 |
| jasonx | can anyone recomend a twitter client for ubuntu | 21:33 |
| Testtube1 | which tells me the problem isnt with the img file | 21:33 |
| ikonia | Product: just ask your questions | 21:33 |
| Product | A MineCraft server, it's not that hard to set it up. | 21:33 |
| ThinkT510 | Product: if you are running centos ask in #centos (you need to register your nick) | 21:33 |
| Product | But I don't know what commands to use. | 21:33 |
| Product | Ok, thanks :) | 21:33 |
| itaylor57 | ikonia, he is using Centos not ubuntu | 21:33 |
| ikonia | Product: ahh, sorry, I missed that you where running Centos | 21:34 |
| aguitel | is there any way to make usb booteable with alternative cd ? | 21:34 |
| Octodigit | my current problem is that having switched to the ati open source driver (I'm sure of that), when I attempt to start anything that involves compiz the desktop flashes on and off repeatedly | 21:34 |
| Product | Thanks anyways :) | 21:34 |
| P05TMAN | terry: just the file extensions | 21:34 |

| ThinkT510 | Product: if you don't want to register your nick you could try a related channel like #fedora (red hat based) | 21:34 |
| Testtube1 | qin: any additional thoughts? | 21:34 |
| Octodigit | does anyone know, did compiz just get completely banjaxed for natty+ati and hang the consequences? am I wasting my time? | 21:34 |
| ikonia | Testtube1: no, that is not the channels process, that is for Fedora support | 21:35 |

| Testtube1 | ikonia what? | 21:35 |

| simprix | I am trying to upgrade 6.06 LTS to 8.04 LTS. I have followed this site https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades. When I run do-release-upgrade it fails. Looking at the logs it is trying to insert a archive source for dapper instead of what is on old-releases. Is there a way to get this upgraded? | 22:01 |
| dr_willis | Psydoll: ftp can do binary, or 'ascii' transfers.. years ago it defaulted to ascii, whoch could screw up binary files.. you always had to rember to tell ftp to use binary for its transfers.. | 22:01 |
| Foxx | Terry, from that, I get no feedback at all | 22:01 |
| dr_willis | Psydoll: really in this day and age.. you should be uysing ssh and scp.. and forget ftp even exists | 22:01 |
| Testtube1 | Foxx he is asking you to grep for 818 which i am assuming because of the model | 22:01 |

| babble | thephased, you compiled :) Make and Make Install are compiling from source, not installing a downloaded binary | 22:27 |
| szal | thephased: 'make' _is_ compiling | 22:27 |
| terry | cook1es_: I dono, don't think you can. What are you tring to do? | 22:27 |
| babble | you're MAKEing a binary that you then install (that's the make install bit) | 22:27 |
| Testtube1 | Foxx | 22:27 |
| Testtube1 | Foxx: one sec | 22:27 |
| thephased | haha alright | 22:27 |
| mandrake | dont think I can? | 22:27 |
| babble | when you ran make, it compiled for your CPU (so that will be 64 bit on 64-bit processors) | 22:27 |
| babble | but keep the source package around. | 22:28 |
| babble | you'll need to make/make install again when the kernel updates | 22:28 |
| cook1es_ | terry: well I want to keep my geany up with sudo access.. while I use terminal for other stuff :/ any ideas? | 22:28 |

| JoAnneThrax | Wait...I seem to have it...it's just not working. | 22:32 |
| Testtube1 | Perhaps someone here can | 22:32 |
| Testtube1 | terry: What do you think? | 22:32 |
| thephased | i'm having another problem actually. and i think it's a simple fix, but i don't know how to add it to my usb stick for every boot. im getting "NET: Registered protocol family 1" every time i boot. Isn't that something to do with apci? | 22:32 |
| thephased | like i need to add noacpi | 22:32 |

| simprix | the archive ones? They keep coming back everytime you run do-release-upgrade | 22:35 |
| Foxx | Testtube1: would a reboot do anything at all?? | 22:36 |
| Psydoll | ikonia: im curious how long have you been using linux? | 22:36 |
| Testtube1 | what is your ssid foxx? | 22:36 |
| Foxx | Testtube1: I am not at home... I cant check | 22:37 |
| Testtube1 | or is it hidden | 22:37 |
| qin | simprix: Yes, # main repos, and update with working mirror, so you get only "Hit". | 22:37 |
| Testtube1 | is wireless available where you are at with the dongle? | 22:37 |
| qin | naxil: What question? | 22:37 |
| simprix | qin, you aren't understanding. What I put in my sources.list is not being used when you run do-release upgrade. It is trying to use a archive.ubuntu.com | 22:38 |

| Belboz999 | the community documentation states what the newer driver is based on, what latest cards it supports, but not what it's actually called | 23:33 |
| bl4ckcomb` | -> sudo | 23:33 |
| Belboz999 | the stable drivers don't have as much 3D support, as stated elsewhere in that documentation | 23:33 |
| under | bl4ckcomb, the server is ubuntu, the client not | 23:33 |
| Belboz999 | of course, that could be a misnomer as well, I have no idea what's what at this point | 23:33 |
| Belboz999 | Corey: ^^^ | 23:34 |
| qin | under: I think NC10 is owned by 1000 | 23:34 |
| pc500 | iick, udev is making a mess of device names: | 23:34 |
| pc500 | [ 16.182353] <30>udev[368]: renamed network interface eth11 to eth11-eth7 | 23:34 |
| pc500 | [ 16.371957] <30>udev[370]: renamed network interface eth7 to eth7-eth5 | 23:34 |
| pc500 | 23:34 | |
| pc500 | Isn't it supposed to go back and "clean up" the names to their final name? | 23:35 |
| bl4ckcomb` | under, how is that related? | 23:35 |
| Belboz999 | Corey: I just got a brand new Radeon HD6770 (Juniper) and would simply like to install the latest driver with the best 3D support | 23:35 |
| pc500 | It's just leaving them at the "ethx-ethx" name, which looks like a temporary holding name to me due to the real name being in use. | 23:35 |
| under | ok bl4ckcomb qin , was enough to give chmod 777 from server, thanks | 23:36 |
| qin | under: sudo touch /home/giuseppe/DreamBox/test2 | 23:36 |
| aa555 | nit-wit: so im finished after this command? sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sdX | 23:37 |
| qin | under: Ah, you on client... | 23:37 |
| under | also yes :) | 23:38 |
| nit-wit | aa555, you realize that the X=the HD for example sda if fdisk shows that | 23:38 |
| aa555 | nit-wit: yes im not that dumb | 23:39 |

| goodtime | hmm intresting | 23:50 |

| Belboz999 | I've tried sudo apt-get -f install, apt-get update, as well as sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 23:52 |
| Belboz999 | I think I'll just reboot it, I purged a few older drivers, might still be lurking in RAM or cache somewhere | 23:53 |

| phlux | indeed. I don't know what I would have done with myself had I not heard goodtime's displeasure with a piece of software, and lack of evidence to support his opinion and why it is relevant. | 23:58 |
| aa555 | nit-wit: i rebooted and it went straight to the grub command line, didnt know what to do | 23:59 |
| goodtime | true | 23:59 |
| nit-wit | aa555, lets see the bootscript run. http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ pastebin the generated text. | 23:59 |
