| LubuntuPowered | the NIC is around 10 years or more old | 03:01 |
| LubuntuPowered | :] | 03:01 |

| LubuntuPowered | cuz making use of old things makes me all tingly inside | 03:02 |
| KM0201 | but is it a pcmia card, like bioterror said, or is it an internal PCI card? | 03:03 |
| LubuntuPowered | internal | 03:04 |

| reprapperMC | hello | 10:27 |
| reprapperMC | Anyone available to answer some questions about network setup? | 10:27 |
| reprapperMC | I'm trying to share internet through ethernet connection. One comp is connected wirelessly, and I want to share that with another comp | 10:29 |
| reprapperMC | I have "shared to other computers" turned on but the two still will not connect. | 10:30 |
| reprapperMC | I'm always wanted the wired connection so I can use Synergy to use one keyboard and mouse to control both setups. | 10:32 |
| reprapperMC | I also wanted* | 10:32 |
| reprapperMC | Well,...guess that's my shot in the dark. | 10:34 |
| zeroedout | rerapper, so you have a computer with an internet connection through ethernet, and another computer that has a wireless card with wifi? | 10:41 |
| zeroedout | ping rerapperMC | 10:41 |
| reprapperMC | up back | 10:46 |
| reprapperMC | Both computers actually have internet connection through wifi. | 10:47 |
| reprapperMC | But I want to connect them hardwire to use Synergy | 10:47 |
| reprapperMC | zeroedout, still there? | 10:48 |
| zeroedout | rerappermc: They don't need to be hardwired | 10:50 |
| reprapperMC | Do I need to make the wireless connection set to "Shared to other computers" also? | 10:50 |
| zeroedout | just on the same LAN. so you should be good | 10:50 |
| reprapperMC | I'll try it, but when I had this set between Ubuntu and Win the response was much slower through wirless than hardwire. | 10:51 |
| zeroedout | forsure. your best bet if you want both on hardwire, is to plug them both into your router | 10:51 |
| reprapperMC | The router is downstairs, which is the issue. | 10:52 |
| reprapperMC | I tried the first thing here, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing | 10:53 |
| zeroedout | you can do this in linux, but you'll need to setup some stuff. and it won't be easy. If you want to use your current setup, you'll have to make your computer with wifi the server, and your other machine the client | 10:54 |
| zeroedout | you'll need both machines to have a network card each | 10:55 |
| zeroedout | you | 10:55 |
| zeroedout | you'll need crossover cable to connect the wired machine to the one with wifi | 10:55 |
| zeroedout | the wifi machine will be the server. then you need to install a dhcp server (dnsmasq is a good one) | 10:55 |
| reprapperMC | Agh...I'll have to get a crossover cable. How was it working in windows though? | 10:55 |
| zeroedout | I don't understand, i thought you said one was wired (connected to your router through internet cable) and the other connected through wifi only? | 10:56 |
| zeroedout | *ethernet | 10:56 |
| reprapperMC | No, both are wifi. But with the previous setup with Win/Ubuntu, I had wireless to the Win computer and shared through ethernet to the Ubuntu. | 10:57 |
| zeroedout | was the ethernet cable connected from the ubuntu box to the windows computer? | 10:58 |
| reprapperMC | Yes | 10:58 |
| reprapperMC | No other network wires but that one. | 10:58 |
| zeroedout | that shouldn't work... ethernet cable has to go into a router or switch. if you want to connect one computer to the other, you need crossover cable | 10:59 |
| * zeroedout has to go put on some rice, brb | 11:00 | |
| reprapperMC | Nope, that is how it was set up. Unless this cord is a xover cord with no markings. | 11:00 |
| reprapperMC | brb, trying a restart. | 11:02 |
| reprapperMC | Ok, well just got it working. woot. | 11:05 |
| reprapperMC | One of the changes that was different than the Win/Ubuntu is I had to change out the desktop. I think the network port is bad on the board. | 11:07 |
| reprapperMC | Just noticed there is a network card that has an extra network port...I changed the cord to that one and it works now. | 11:07 |
| zeroedout | lol, weird. well at least it's working | 11:28 |
| reprapperMC | true true. | 11:28 |
| reprapperMC | Woohoo, Lubuntu and Synergy FTW. Although, I have no idea how to get autostart working. | 11:52 |
| head_victim | Synergy is awesome. I've used it for the last 5 years or more. | 12:03 |
| reprapperMC | head_victim, do you know how to set it to autostart with Lubuntu? | 12:08 |
| reprapperMC | This only lists how to do it for GDM or KDM: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynergyHowto | 12:08 |
| head_victim | reprapperMC: I'll have to dig it out but basically I followed the instructions on the sourceforge website | 12:08 |
| reprapperMC | aghh ok. I'll check those out then | 12:09 |
| head_victim | YOu just have to modify it to xdg instead of gdm | 12:09 |
| head_victim | http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/autostart.html | 12:10 |
| reprapperMC | Thanks! | 12:10 |
| head_victim | I just followed that and fumbled my way through the slightly different config for LXDE. | 12:10 |
| reprapperMC | Yeah, that was my only concern is that I was not sure what would be different with LXDE...I'll give it a go though. | 12:11 |
| head_victim | Look into /etc/lxdm instead of /etc/gdm | 12:13 |
| head_victim | That has basically all the files you need to edit from memory | 12:13 |
| reprapperMC | I'm in the midst of installing reprap software, so I'll to try it when that is done. | 12:15 |
| head_victim | No worries | 12:15 |
| reprapperMC | I have to say, Lubuntu was probably one of the easiest Linux installs I've had. I'm tempted to try dualboot with it on my macbook, as nothing else would work. | 12:16 |
| Ascavasaion | I don't like cricket.... I love it! | 14:13 |
| morri | I agree | 14:13 |
| kosaidpo | hello guys | 16:07 |
| kosaidpo | i changed that button to turn off my pc in bottom ight | 16:08 |
| kosaidpo | now iwanna get it back vut icant find out how | 16:08 |
| kosaidpo | i went to that menu to add new button but ididnt find it | 16:08 |
| semitones | what can I do if "holding shift to bring up Grub" doesn't work, and the computer boots straight to lubuntu, which freezes? | 17:08 |
| semitones | freeze is the wrong word: becomes unresponsive | 17:08 |
| semitones | except the mouse | 17:08 |
| semitones | I can't stay, but I'll check back later! thanks :) | 17:10 |
| diytto | How can I modify the mount spot for a volume? | 18:05 |
| diytto | Right now I have a volume mount at /media/Linux__ (the system auto mounts there) but I want it at /media/Linux | 18:06 |
| KM0201 | aikInsaan: did you figure out how to auto login? you were told like 4x yeesterday, but kept asking | 18:34 |
| KM0201 | diytto: unfortunately, i really don't know the answer to that one... | 18:34 |
| diytto | KM0201: I fixed it myself :) | 18:35 |
| aikInsaan | KM0201, i did finally manage to fix that...thanks! | 18:35 |
| KM0201 | diytto: is it a linux filesystem?... | 18:35 |
| KM0201 | diytto: oh ok.. :) | 18:35 |
| KM0201 | aikInsaan: ok | 18:35 |
| aikInsaan | KM0201, glad you remembered :) | 18:36 |
| KM0201 | aikInsaan: a couple times i tried to answer, and you disappeared before icould finish typing | 18:36 |
| aikInsaan | KM0201, it was a flaky connection i was on yesterday...probably that's why | 18:38 |
| KM0201 | oh ok | 18:38 |
| aikInsaan | out of interest...which IRC client is the 'best'? | 18:39 |
| KM0201 | aikInsaan: there really is no "best" | 18:39 |
| KM0201 | !best | 18:39 |
| ubot5 | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 18:39 |
| aikInsaan | KM0201, haha...ofcourse! | 18:39 |
| KM0201 | (not complaining about the poll... its just the factoid... you can ask best-bot) | 18:39 |
| KM0201 | aikInsaan: personally, i like Xchat... second, for me, would be Xchat-gnome. Xchat-Gnome, doesn't hav enear the features that Xchat has, but its still a good client | 18:40 |
| aikInsaan | KM0201, that question is the topic on ubuntu-bots...lol | 18:41 |
| KM0201 | aikInsaan: :) | 18:41 |
| aikInsaan | KM0201, hmm...i am using Xchat....haven't found many features...reckon there are loads of quality plugins given its immense popularity | 18:42 |
| aikInsaan | as pointed out by bestbot ofcourse | 18:42 |
| KM0201 | aikInsaan: it's fairly configurable, if you want to see "no features"... check out xchat-gnome | 18:43 |
| aikInsaan | KM0201, hmm...first time using it....will look around for various config options..moved from mIRC on win which has tons of options | 18:46 |
| KM0201 | aikInsaan: xchat is highly customizable (not just by the preferences list).. if you need help doing something w/ Xchat, ask in #xchat... they're generally pretty good folks there, IMO. | 18:53 |
| aikInsaan | KM0201, yeah i thought so as soon as i saw how popular it is within the community | 18:54 |
| KM0201 | irssi, is also VERY popular... but... i dunno, its not my cup of tea, i like a GUI. | 18:55 |
| KM0201 | but its nice to at least have a basic understanding of irssi, in case you get stuck in a console. | 18:55 |
| aikInsaan | hmm...xchat it is then | 18:55 |
| aikInsaan | how do I start ssh on my box? | 19:47 |
| aikInsaan | does the daemon run as a background process by default? | 19:47 |
| Unit193 | aikInsaan: Do you have it installed? | 19:50 |
| Unit193 | sudo apt-get install openssh-server will install it, you will then have to configure it | 19:51 |
| aikInsaan | Unit193, yeah...running 'ssh' on the terminal spits its usage instructions | 19:51 |
| Unit193 | aikInsaan: That's the client... Did you want a server or client? The client doesn't need to be running all the time | 19:52 |
| aikInsaan | aha! server i reckon as i want to ssh into this box | 19:52 |
| Unit193 | !sshd | 19:53 |
| ubot5 | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, sshd is the server (or daemon) of SSH. For setting up the SSH server, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/openssh-server.html . Advanced SSH uses: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Advanced . For SSH client information, see !ssh . Related: !scp (Secure CoPy) | 19:53 |
| aikInsaan | !ssh | 19:54 |
| ubot5 | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 19:54 |
| aikInsaan | hmmm....so no ssh server by default on lubuntu then? | 19:54 |
| aikInsaan | how can i confirm that there isn't one on mine already? | 19:55 |
| Unit193 | By default, I don't think so | 19:55 |
| Unit193 | aikInsaan: If you run the command, all it will do is install it or tell you it's already up-to-date | 19:55 |
| Unit193 | dpkg -l |grep openssh-server will tell you if it's installed | 19:56 |
| phillw | aikInsaan: you may well find it much easier to use tasksel to install openssh server :) | 20:00 |
| phillw | It will take you it all step by step. | 20:00 |
| aikInsaan | tasksel...hmm | 20:00 |
| aikInsaan | !tasksel | 20:00 |
| ubot5 | Tasksel is a Debian/Ubuntu tool that installs multiple related packages as a co-ordinated "task" onto your system, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel for more information. Use tasksel only to INSTALL tasks, not to remove them. It will remove every package listed within the removed task! see https://launchpad.net/bugs/574287 | 20:00 |
| phillw | *you through it all* | 20:00 |
| phillw | having seen the various horrible messes that people have gotten into trying to install LAMP, I am a great fan of tasksel :) | 20:01 |
| aikInsaan | gonna check it out...thanks! | 20:02 |
| Unit193 | I don't think tasksel is installed by default in 11.04, if that's what you're using, you'll have to install it | 20:02 |
| phillw | it is not, you need to add it :( Forgot that they had dropped it... idiots......... | 20:03 |
| aikInsaan | yep it isnt | 20:03 |
| phillw | sudo apt-get install tasksel | 20:04 |
| * phillw mutters as goes and alters tutorials....... | 20:04 | |
| * Unit193 isn't a wiki guy and doens't have to remember what ones :D | 20:06 | |
| phillw | Unit193: not just wiki :( Also classroom sessions that are still used >:o | 20:07 |
| phillw | hmm. from 10.10 it seems :\ | 20:12 |
| phillw | now, which one is being dropped... apt-get or aptitude? | 20:13 |
| Unit193 | Better not be apt-get! I won't know how to install anything! And why the heck? | 20:17 |
| phillw | ahh, seems aptitude from ubuntu whilst still preferred at debian... Ooooh, I soooo love standards... anyone can make them :P | 20:17 |
| phillw | Unit193: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1506025 we're both safe :) | 20:18 |
| Unit193 | phillw: whew... http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9438172&postcount=5 is the best. Lubuntu isn't the only one I use, but the first thing I did was purge Software Center | 20:20 |
| phillw | Unit193: you ought to hang around on http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=403 the guys and gals do not pull their punches :) the Lubuntu thread for test releases is at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11066920 which is my promised link to them all for news etc. | 20:22 |
| phillw | it allows them to question me, without joining the mailing list and also keeps a presence on that area for Lubuntu :) | 20:25 |
| Unit193 | phillw: Maybe I should RSS that :D (I don't have a forum account as my mind can't do the one post fix) | 20:32 |
| phillw | I just subscribe by email, that way it pops up in my inbox :P | 20:33 |
| phillw | They do know that devs do not read the forum areas, but it is an extra set of experienced people willing to help Lubuntu but not wanting to get involved in mailing lists etc. As I have known quite a few for a few testing cycles, it also gives me chance to keep in touch with them all :) | 20:34 |
