bookpage | yes | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
nlsthzn-work | well I would imagine that if -r was a valid option it would be mentioned there... | 00:02 |
bookpage | nlsthzn-work: that's why I checked there, and that's why I asked if there was an option'like' -r for scp. I guess I'll just work around it then | 00:05 |
nlsthzn-work | bookpage: sorry, if I had a definitive answer I would have given it... | 00:07 |

geth022 | I am having a hard time connecting to my wireless internet through my Ubuntu OS. Am i on the right channel for this? | 01:18 |
nlsthzn-work | geth022: you are... might take a while for a guru to step up and assist you so please be patient (I am a bit up and down at work so I will rather not attempt half heartedly) | 01:20 |
geth022 | ok! | 01:22 |
philipballew | geth022, i can try. whats your problem | 01:22 |
geth022 | okee, it is simply not reading that there is indeed a wireless network | 01:22 |
geth022 | I am currently connected to said network now, | 01:22 |
geth022 | my mom's computer is doing fine, i don't quite understand what the problem is | 01:23 |
philipballew | so your moms computer connects, but yours does not? | 01:23 |
philipballew | whats the difference between yours and hers? | 01:24 |
geth022 | Yes, my desktop is connected locally to the modem/router/thing via ethernet, whilst my mothers (Windows 7) is wirelessly connected to the internet | 01:24 |
geth022 | desktop is Windows XP | 01:25 |
geth022 | btws... | 01:25 |
coalwater | hello philipballew ,geth022 | 01:25 |
geth022 | hey dere! | 01:25 |
coalwater | so what's up | 01:25 |
philipballew | okay. do you have your wireless card internally or via a say usb stick? | 01:26 |
philipballew | coalwater, his wifi wont see any networks | 01:26 |
geth022 | Wireless internet is being recognized on alll computers, operating systems except for Ubuntu... it is a laptop, its internal | 01:26 |
philipballew | altight. lets get to the bottom of this | 01:27 |
coalwater | did u check the wireless guide the ubot has? | 01:27 |
coalwater | it's a wireless problem? or internet in general? | 01:27 |
philipballew | geth022, theres not a wifi switch on your laptop for a on and off function correct? | 01:28 |
geth022 | correct Phil, as for Coal, all other computers are doing fine with it, i had my laptop working fine on the internet with windows 7, but only on Ubuntu it doesn't worok | 01:29 |
coalwater | even by wire? | 01:29 |
philipballew | get okay :) open a terminal | 01:29 |
geth022 | yeah :/ i tried local connection too | 01:30 |
geth022 | open a terminal? like command prompt? | 01:30 |
philipballew | maximize the terminal and type lspci -vvv | 01:30 |
coalwater | yea | 01:30 |
coalwater | ctrl+alt+t might open it for u | 01:30 |
philipballew | yeah. but the terminal is much more powerful | 01:30 |
philipballew | what version of ubuntu are you running | 01:30 |
geth022 | cool, soo typing it in now... | 01:31 |
coalwater | philipballew: +1 to that lol | 01:31 |
philipballew | then copy and paste everything in the terminal to this site here | 01:31 |
geth022 | holy shit that's a long list... | 01:31 |
philipballew | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/ | 01:31 |
geth022 | ummmm, i'm on a different computer | 01:31 |
philipballew | geth022, it gives good info about your hardware inside your laptop :) | 01:31 |
geth022 | oooo, i see, well, how do you want me to communicate it to you guys? | 01:32 |
philipballew | hum. connect your laptop via a cat5? | 01:32 |
philipballew | does that work? | 01:32 |
geth022 | i've got Ubuntu 10.10 btws | 01:32 |
philipballew | how new is your laptop/ | 01:33 |
geth022 | i don't know what any of that cat5 stuff means :(( | 01:33 |
philipballew | say ethernet or wired connection? | 01:33 |
philipballew | can you hook it up that way | 01:33 |
geth022 | reasonably new, just short of coming standard with a webcam | 01:33 |
geth022 | no, i tried that | 01:33 |
geth022 | i'm new to OS | 01:34 |
philipballew | it may be that the laptop is newer then the version of ubuntu therefor lacking the drivers for that model | 01:34 |
geth022 | *I'm new to OS's that aren't Windows lol | 01:34 |
geth022 | should i get the 11. 04 version then? | 01:34 |
coalwater | it can't be just an ip conflict, or dhcp problem? | 01:35 |
geth022 | no ideas bros... | 01:35 |
philipballew | well heres what i want you to do. remember when you installed ubuntu 10.10 you had the cd boot into the operating system and then you installed? | 01:35 |
geth022 | yess | 01:35 |
philipballew | coalwater, it might easily be that | 01:35 |
philipballew | do that with 11.04 and see if your internet works | 01:36 |
philipballew | also do you have a flash drive? | 01:36 |
geth022 | damn, ok! I... kinda... don't know where it is... | 01:37 |
geth022 | i have a dvd burner i can use | 01:37 |
geth022 | How would i go about cleaning up the two OS's i'm not gonna use if it works? | 01:37 |
philipballew | sure, just copy the output from the terminal onto a text file and then put it onto the compueter with internet. then put it on the site i said or if your unsude you can email it to me and ill do it | 01:38 |
philipballew | then after that try 11.04 | 01:38 |
geth022 | ok!, i'll be back in a few minutes ok? i'mm go do that | 01:40 |
philipballew | alright. i will probably be here. if not someone should | 01:41 |
coalwater | hey philipballew do u know how to mark several lines in nano to cut them | 01:43 |
nlsthzn-work | coalwater: if you have a mouse higglight them and copy paste using ctrl+shift+c and -v | 01:45 |
nlsthzn-work | I think that should work... | 01:45 |
philipballew | do you have a mouse coalwater | 01:45 |
* nlsthzn-work hasn't tried it himself | 01:45 | |
coalwater | yea | 01:45 |
coalwater | but i was wondering of hte keyboard way | 01:46 |
coalwater | i'm currently using putty to my home pc | 01:46 |
E3D3 | When I open a new document in Dolpin file-manager it opens new instances of Emacs editor or Conkeror web-browser but I prefer to open them in the same/one window. How can I do that ? | 01:46 |
coalwater | E3D3: it's usually a preference, check dolpin prefrences, cause nautilus has that setting | 01:47 |
coalwater | o wait, ur case is a lil different | 01:47 |
geth022 | oh hey, it's got like two hour estimated time to completion, so i might have to log on tomorrow | 01:48 |
coalwater | i'm not sure how u can do that, because dolpin or any explorer just calls the excutable, and that opens a new window | 01:48 |
coalwater | hey geth022 , sorry u know i came lil later than when u started asking, so i want to ask something | 01:49 |
E3D3 | okay, i experimented with the arguments but I can't find info about it. | 01:49 |
E3D3 | coalwater: Still thanks | 01:49 |
geth022 | yup! shoot | 01:50 |
coalwater | when u use the cable , does the info say that u have an ip ? or does it say that you're not conencted | 01:51 |
geth022 | it says i am not connected, no network connections | 01:51 |
coalwater | and there's an option in the network applet, it says enable networking, u make sure it's not disabled | 01:51 |
geth022 | i'm finding network connections but not a network applet... | 01:52 |
geth022 | could you tell me whereabouts that's at? | 01:53 |
urlin2u | geth022, looks like a pizza top panel | 01:54 |
urlin2u | pizza slice geth022 | 01:54 |
coalwater | pizza lol | 01:54 |
coalwater | but yea it's on the top panel, on the right | 01:55 |
urlin2u | triangualtubular man | 01:55 |
geth022 | oh i checked there, it said no network devices available | 01:55 |
coalwater | o | 01:55 |
coalwater | so it can't see the device | 01:55 |
geth022 | nope, does that definitely mean i need a new driver/versionofubuntu? | 01:56 |
* nlsthzn-work wonders what ifconfig shows... | 01:56 | |
* philipballew and ifconfig -a | 01:57 | |
urlin2u | nlsthzn-work, lol | 01:57 |
nlsthzn-work | :p | 01:58 |
geth022 | what am i looking for? | 01:58 |
coalwater | write ifconfig -a in a terminal | 01:58 |
coalwater | ifconfig -a | 01:59 |
geth022 | i did, shows the same as it did befre | 01:59 |
coalwater | and what was before lol, i didn't see that | 02:00 |
geth022 | what doo i need to see? | 02:00 |
coalwater | it will say the interfaces u have, and the ip's in each | 02:00 |

E3D3 | I bought today 4GB RAM but System Monitor shows only 2,8 GB. What is wrong ? | 02:47 |
E3D3 | Do I have to fill in a coupon to receive the other 1,4 GB ? | 02:48 |
E3D3 | 1,4 = 1.2 | 02:48 |
stlsaint | E3D3: are you running 64bit os? | 02:48 |
E3D3 | I dont know ? | 02:48 |
E3D3 | I have an Celeron | 02:48 |
E3D3 | Where can I see if Ihave an 64bits OS | 02:49 |
stlsaint | E3D3: run command: grep processor /proc/cpuinfo | 02:50 |
stlsaint | E3D3: um did you install 32bit or 64bit? | 02:51 |
E3D3 | output = 0 | 02:51 |
E3D3 | What does that mean ? | 02:51 |
E3D3 | processor: 0 | 02:51 |
E3D3 | 02:51 | |
stlsaint | means your running 32bit which will not read 4GB of ram | 02:52 |
stlsaint | E3D3: run command: uname -a | 02:52 |
E3D3 | Sh*t | 02:52 |
E3D3 | Sorry | 02:52 |

stlsaint | see that "i686" there....yep....32bit | 02:53 |
bookpage | can anyone here help me with fuse? | 02:53 |
stlsaint | with a generic kernel, your not going to see all the ram | 02:53 |
E3D3 | Can I reinstall a 64bits version ? | 02:54 |
stlsaint | bookpage: im sure someone can, probably not me as i rarely blink at fuse | 02:54 |

stlsaint | if you see "lm" highlighted or there than you can run 64bit, but with one processor i dbout it | 02:56 |
stlsaint | oh wait | 02:56 |
stlsaint | there ya go | 02:56 |
E3D3 | I saw it, I saw it :-) | 02:56 |
stlsaint | so yes you can run 64bit | 02:57 |
E3D3 | So I'm under-using/abusing my hardware ? | 02:57 |
stlsaint | uh, sure | 02:57 |
stlsaint | gotta go | 02:58 |
E3D3 | Thank you very much & bye | 02:58 |
E3D3 | Does the choice in installable software depend on the choice between Gnome, KDE or LXDE ? I have now Gnome but think that I already have it mixed with KDE-apps but wonder if I can install the same software when I try LXDE ?? | 03:20 |

r4y | hello, I have this error: | 11:33 |
r4y | >./autogen.sh: 3: aclocal: not found | 11:33 |
r4y | I am trying to install torrentzip | 11:34 |
bioterror | what's torrentzip? | 11:34 |
r4y | It for comressing mame roms. | 11:34 |
r4y | And I am sure other things. | 11:35 |
bioterror | roms are binaries, does it compress them much? | 11:35 |
r4y | I am not sure the answer, nor the question. I should find a link. | 11:36 |
r4y | http://sourceforge.net/projects/trrntzip/files/trrntzip/TorrentZip%20v0.2/ | 11:37 |
geirha | r4y: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 11:37 |
r4y | Yes I did that first. | 11:37 |
geirha | install autoconf and automake too (I wasn't sure if build-essential covered those) | 11:38 |
r4y | Here is a guide I am making: | 11:39 |
r4y | http://paste.ubuntu.com/673747/ | 11:39 |
bioterror | http://t7z.sourceforge.net/ | 11:39 |
bioterror | hoho | 11:39 |
r4y | Does automake replace sudo make install? | 11:40 |
geirha | r4y: ''./configure; make test'' -> ''./configure && make test'' | 11:40 |
geirha | No point in running make if configure fails | 11:40 |
r4y | Here is what I have so far, but I haven't used what was suggested here yet: | 11:41 |
r4y | http://paste.ubuntu.com/673749/ | 11:41 |
bioterror | r4y, did you notice my url, your torrentzip is outdated and no longer mainted, as the t7zip is a replacement for it | 11:42 |
r4y | I am running Ubuntu 11.04 on VMware. I am sorry I will check it out thank you for the info. | 11:43 |
geirha | r4y: Instead of saying cd /home/username/foo, say: cd ~/foo or cd "$HOME/foo" | 11:43 |
r4y | Great idea, thank you I will. | 11:44 |
r4y | Does the third one need quotes? | 11:45 |
geirha | Another issue is that ~/Desktop is localized. On my system it's ~/Skrivebord | 11:45 |
geirha | r4y: Preferably, yes. Whenever you have a $var or $(command) or `command`, you want it enclosed in double quotes... for good practice. | 11:46 |
geirha | HOME is unlikely to contain any shell syntax that could cause issues though. | 11:46 |
r4y | Well, this guide is for Ubuntu users and if they costumized their Linux OS that much then they would know what to do | 11:46 |
r4y | I need to go back and read. Thank you all for the info. | 11:47 |
geirha | If you during the install of Ubuntu say you live in Spain and speak spanish, your desktop folder will be named with the spanish translation of the word Desktop. | 11:47 |
r4y | Well I can't argue with you there, as you know more then I do on this subject | 11:49 |
r4y | So did configure fail? | 11:49 |
r4y | The outdated version of torrentzip worked for me the last time I tried it. | 11:51 |
geirha | zlib's configure seemed to succeed | 11:51 |
r4y | Thank you for the help. | 11:51 |
r4y | I bookmarked the newer version to share with other, so thank you bioterror for the link. | 11:52 |
r4y | automake was already installed, but I don't know what installed it, but that's that. I will try again now. | 11:57 |
geirha | aclocal is installed by either autoconf or automake, don't quite remember which. | 11:58 |
r4y | http://paste.ubuntu.com/673765/ | 11:58 |
geirha | But you generally need both anyway. | 11:58 |
geirha | Looks ok, I think you can disregard the warnings. | 11:59 |
r4y | OK, next to go then, I'll be back right away | 12:00 |
r4y | http://paste.ubuntu.com/673768/ | 12:01 |
r4y | Looks good to me so far | 12:01 |
geirha | yes | 12:01 |
r4y | Then next step they had was make | 12:02 |
r4y | but I have seen sudo make install before so I am unsure. | 12:02 |
r4y | Do make I guess | 12:02 |
r4y | http://paste.ubuntu.com/673772/ | 12:03 |
r4y | I should be testing it I guess. I will look for the binary. | 12:04 |
r4y | what was that command for finding a binary with a word? | 12:05 |
geirha | type? | 12:05 |
r4y | It will be trrntzip | 12:06 |
geirha | ''type trrntzip'' | 12:06 |
r4y | Not found, give me a little. I have text files laying around with this kind of info for future use. | 12:07 |
geirha | Well, once you do sudo make install it will install the binaries in /usr/local/bin, unless you specified a different destination with configure | 12:08 |
r4y | OK, I will try that and see what happens | 12:08 |
geirha | Once it's installed there, type should see it since /usr/local/bin should be in your PATH. | 12:08 |
r4y | O yes: | 12:10 |
r4y | http://paste.ubuntu.com/673777/ | 12:10 |
r4y | I can't remember where I saved that command in a text file, but I am making note. | 12:11 |
r4y | Thank you very much for the help. Great job. | 12:11 |
geirha | Someone might have told you to use a command called which | 12:11 |
geirha | If so, delete that from your file and replace it with type | 12:11 |
geirha | which is a highly non-standard, useless command that overcomplicates the simple task type does. | 12:12 |
r4y | I made note of everything, except I didn't understand exactly what this meant: ”./configure; make test” -> ”./configure && make test” | 12:12 |
r4y | I think you are right. It was the command which | 12:12 |
geirha | cmd1; cmd2 cmd1 runs, and regardless of whether it failed or succeeded, cmd2 is run. | 12:12 |
geirha | cmd1 && cmd2 cmd1 runs, and if, and only if, cmd1 suceeded, cmd2 is run. | 12:13 |
geirha | make is dependant on the configure script suceeded, so there's no point in trying to run it if configure didn't suceed. | 12:13 |
r4y | I think I can understand what you just wrote in the last 3 sentences, but I need a sec to think. | 12:14 |
r4y | O, I see | 12:14 |
geirha | Sorry about all the typos :) | 12:15 |
r4y | I am low on sleep. Thank you very much for the help. Like I said I will share the link bioterror share with me. | 12:15 |
r4y | I make way more mistakes when I type. You should have seen all the mistakes I made this morning. I was thinking of banging my head against the wall, but that wouldn't help. | 12:16 |
r4y | I want to make some notes on what you have told me. | 12:17 |
r4y | My first note: | 12:21 |
r4y | When ”./configure; make test” is ran, first configure runs, and regardless of whether it failed or succeeded, make test is run. | 12:21 |
r4y | When ”./configure && make test” is ran, first configure runs, and if, and only if, configure suceeded, make test is run. | 12:21 |
r4y | I forgot to add the sentence you typed after that. | 12:22 |
geirha | Those two sentences are correct. | 12:23 |
r4y | I will add the type command as part of my guide. | 12:23 |
r4y | Thank you for all the help. | 12:23 |
r4y | So regarding what you said: Instead of saying cd /home/username/foo, say: cd ~/foo or cd "$HOME/foo" | 12:29 |
r4y | I think you said cd "$HOME/foo" was the better of the two. | 12:29 |
r4y | You said: HOME is unlikely to contain any shell syntax that could cause issues though. | 12:31 |
geirha | ~ expands to the value of the HOME variable, so either is good. | 12:32 |
geirha | cd ~/foo is shorter so I'd go with that. | 12:33 |
holstein | when i use $HOME, it seems auto complete doesnt work as expected, which is a deal breaker for me | 12:33 |
geirha | In scripts though, it is generally recommended to use $HOME instead of ~ | 12:33 |
holstein | i'll buy that... is that because its easier to see and read in the text geirha ? | 12:34 |
geirha | holstein: Yeah, that one has been discussed on the bug-bash list. It was introduced due to a change that fixed a different issue. Chet isn't sure how to "fix" it properly. | 12:35 |
geirha | holstein: Mainly because tilde expansion is a bit more magical than parameter expansion. | 12:35 |
holstein | good to know | 12:35 |
geirha | VAR=~/foo # here, ~ gets expanded to your homedir | 12:36 |
geirha | export VAR=~/foo # here it doesn't. | 12:36 |
geirha | err, well, in bash it will also in the case of export, as a special case, but not in POSIX sh. | 12:36 |
geirha | So using "$HOME" generally causes less confusion | 12:37 |
r4y | I made some notes, but I am not at you level guys. Have fun and thank you for the help. | 12:39 |
r4y | Cool stuff, Take care. | 12:39 |
r4y | o/ | 12:39 |
jp_Hranice | I have a question. Which file(s) produces boot.log. I am afected two mesages disturbing system start logged in this file. | 13:58 |
jp_Hranice | can I ask in ubuntu-boot chanel ? | 13:59 |
holstein | jp_Hranice: you can ask here if you want... what messages? | 14:02 |
jp_Hranice | holstein: about mounting devices. But thre is not lines for them in /etc/fstab. | 14:03 |

r4y | Hello again. I already asked this, but this is the only question I have left for the day, then I will be done for the day and can get sleep: | 15:36 |
r4y | Can I change this command so username doesn't have to be changed when people use it in a guide: sudo find ~/Desktop/roms -exec chown username.username \{} \; | 15:36 |
r4y | I mean so they don't have to change username to the username that that person is using. | 15:37 |
geirha | chown "$USER:" | 15:47 |
geirha | Oh, he left | 15:48 |
d3s3rtdw3ll3r | byeee... | 15:48 |
soundconjurer | Question: I am on Xubuntu 10.04. How do I add blocklists to transmission? | 15:52 |
soundconjurer | I did check out the forum and found it a bit esoteric. | 15:52 |
soundconjurer | Hmmm | 15:56 |
strickly | ok guys dont jump all at once pls | 15:59 |
geirha | soundconjurer: Edit -> Preferences -> [Privacy] -> [X] Enable blocklist: [<url to your favorite blocklist here>] -> Update | 16:08 |
soundconjurer | there is no area to add the blocklist | 16:13 |
soundconjurer | When I enable it | 16:14 |
soundconjurer | and update it | 16:14 |
soundconjurer | there are 0 rules | 16:14 |
soundconjurer | well thanks anyway | 16:16 |
HoboSteaux | hey, where are system logs now kept since 11.04 | 16:18 |
harleydude | Is there a reason a torrent will almost finish downloading to like say 99.83% and just hangs and will not finish? I use Deluge instead of Transmission as a torrent client. | 16:59 |
philipballew | if i wanna scan my harddrive to see if it is bad should i do that from a livecd? | 21:46 |
nlsthzn | philipballew: yup... | 21:51 |
philipballew | nlsthzn, well whats the tool to do that then | 21:52 |
nlsthzn | hehe... fsck | 21:52 |
nlsthzn | check out the man page for all the goodies on it :) | 21:52 |
nlsthzn | but this checks file systems | 21:52 |
nlsthzn | in the live CD you can get SMART info with the disk tool... | 21:53 |
* nlsthzn is busy studying towards LPI cert. and is currently busy with hardware... only reason I have half an idea... but only half ;) | 21:54 | |
philipballew | alright, im wanting to see if the harddrive itself is bad. like physicaly | 21:54 |
nlsthzn | like I said the disk utility in an ubuntu liveCD gives lots of smart data and if memory serves can run some tests... | 21:55 |
philipballew | hum. ill play around with it :) | 21:56 |
philipballew | thanks!!! | 21:56 |

rawfodog_ | Anyone got any idea whats wrong with my wifi ? | 22:40 |
rawfodog_ | Before, when I used to connect it just worked. | 22:40 |
rawfodog_ | Now, when I startup, I have to almost STOKE THE FIRE in a sense. I open a terminal and ping a URL | 22:41 |
rawfodog_ | When I do this the wifi will stay connectted to the access point. It's really weird | 22:41 |
