[00:00] <escott> mody, run the following command in terminal ps aux | egrep "metacity|compiz" what does it say?
[00:00] <us> escott: Dec 13 09:55:15 us-GT5028 kernel: [   14.458231] NVRM: loading NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module  280.13  Wed Jul 27 16:53:56 PDT 2011
[00:00] <DaZ> hum
[00:00] <mody> gives >
[00:00] <mody> sokak I already have compiz config settings manager
[00:01] <sokak> When my compiz goes haywire, i shut it down and reload it, i made a couple of scripts
[00:01] <escott> mody, after you typed `ps aux | egrep "metacity|compiz"[ENTER]` it should output something
[00:02] <mody> compiz (core) - Error: Screen 0 on display ":0" already has a window manager; try using the --replace option to replace the current window manager.
[00:02] <mody> this you mean?
[00:02] <escott> mody, you aren't typing the command correctly
[00:03] <mody> mody      1503  0.9  0.3 174368 14172 ?        Sl   01:26   0:21 metacity

[00:03] <sokak> Try 'metacity --replace & killall compiz compiz.real' and after 'compiz --replace'
[00:04] <mody> it says that
[00:04] <popsch> when I mount a smb-share with nautilus, can I also open a terminal window in the mounted directory?
[00:04] <escott> mody, you have no shadows because metacity is running. metacity is probably running because something is wrong with your graphics drivers
[00:04] <mody> sokak , it didnt do it
[00:04] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> What is the best Ubuntu Linux?
[00:05] <qbert_> I need some server monitoring tools, telling me CPU usage, memory usage, network usage etc, any suggestions ?
[00:05] <andygraybeal> so in ubuntu 11.10; how do i get to the 'applications' menu?
[00:05] <qbert_> something dummy proof
[00:05] <andygraybeal> qbert_, nagios is probably what your after; maybe opennms
[00:05] <MonkeyDust> !best| Pengu1n_Phr0zen
[00:05] <andygraybeal> qbert_, oh dummy proof,, nevemrind :)
[00:05] <sokak> escott, when i had issues, someone hinted me to install fusion icon, and that worked flawlessly to set compiz instead of metacity, and poke all the stuff
[00:06] <qbert_> andygraybeal, hit the windows key, go to more apps, then see all for the applications
[00:06] <qbert_> andygraybeal, hehe kk
[00:06] <andygraybeal> rock thakns qbert_
[00:06] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> ubottu, Keep your pannies on, I was just trolling for the heck of it.
[00:07] <andygraybeal> qbert_, aw bro, i ain't picking it up that fast. i hit
[00:07] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> ubottu, I've done more man hours on Ubuntu than you did potty training.
[00:08] <andygraybeal> 'windows key' go to 'more apps' and then 'see more' but there no applicaiotn menu like in old gnome.. i feel like a geezer
[00:08] <sokak> *points* haaa
[00:08] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> ubottu, Correction, You are a butt.
[00:08] <Derpadong> Lol butt
[00:08] <qbert_> andygraybeal, ahh yeah - I'm not sure if they have something the same, are you looking for a specific app ?
[00:09] <andygraybeal> yea... wtf am i loking for -- make a usb boot disk from ubuntu image
[00:09] <escott> andygraybeal, just start typing keywords for whatever application you want
[00:09] <andygraybeal> i can't remember the app!
[00:09] <andygraybeal> i just know it's in the menu somehwer e:(
[00:09] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> andygraybeal, I got the perfect solution for you.
[00:09] <sokak> andygraybeal, ubnetbootin can be wrong
[00:09] <escott> andygraybeal, what does it do?
[00:09] <sokak> cant*
[00:09] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> Ok
[00:09] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> There you go.
[00:09] <andygraybeal> what what what?
[00:10] <andygraybeal> unetbootin, i will never remmb
[00:10] <escott> andygraybeal, do you mean the startup disk creator
[00:10] <andygraybeal> escott, totally!!
[00:10] <andygraybeal> crap he left
[00:10] <mody> ok so there was a driver for graphic I installed
[00:11] <mody> and rebooted
[00:11] <mody> now its fine
[00:11] <sokak> i use unetbootin because cant remember properly if the startup disk creator can make a persistent casper as well
[00:11] <mody> whats happening is
[00:11] <mody> when I fore shutdown the driver is being broke
[00:11] <mody> then i have reinstall
[00:11] <sokak> which card you have and which driver you used?
[00:11] <mody> I have a sony vaio VPCEE
[00:12] <mody> 4 gb ram , AMD 64bit
[00:12] <mody> the driver that fixed it called:
[00:12] <sokak> lol which gpu
[00:12] <mody> ATI/AMD Proprietary FGLRX graphics driver
[00:13] <sokak> *faints*
[00:13] <sokak> mody, i cant help you with an ati, i would not touch them neither with a stick under ubuntu
[00:13] <Derpadong> Mody, worst card ever
[00:14] <user82> for me the opensource ati drivers always worked better. not very well performing though ...
[00:14] <andygraybeal> okay, i'm not finding this boot disk creator application
[00:14] <sokak> Derpadong, i cant totally agree, the drivers just suck
[00:14] <mody> what I can do?
[00:14] <Derpadong> The card + drivers suck tbh
[00:14] <popsch> When I mount a remote drive (samba share), then nautilus shows me the contents, but it isn't mounted in ~/.gvfs. How come?
[00:15] <sokak> mody, prolly you can google if someone had a tweak making it work better installing ubuntu on that model of vaio
[00:15] <andygraybeal> aaah.... 'windows key' -> 'more apps' ->
[00:16] <andygraybeal> aaah.... 'windows key' -> 'more apps' -> 'filter results' !!!!
[00:16] <sokak> u got it andygraybeal ;)
[00:16] <andygraybeal> yay
[00:16] <andygraybeal> sorry absuloute retard here
[00:16] <Knuxgen> the launcher is not very friendly
[00:17] <sokak> andygraybeal, i would be probably even worst, thats why im sticking on maverick, i dont feel unity/gnome3 ready
[00:17] <Derpadong> Is unity going to not suck soon?
[00:17] <andygraybeal> sokak, rock!   i totally love it!! but i odn't know how to use it!!!
[00:17] <sokak> Derpadong, again, its not a matter of totally sucking, but a matter of getting used to
[00:18] <sokak> thats why instead of complaining, ill just wait it to mature before diving in
[00:18] <Derpadong> Yeah
[00:18] <sokak> (and lurk whats going on)
[00:18] <Derpadong> I went to xfce for now lol
[00:18] <sokak> xfce cant be wrong ;)
[00:19] <Nach0z> xfce is good stuff, but if it dont work for you, LXDE brah.
[00:19] <Derpadong> I'm trying to get my fav tiling window manager installed
[00:19] <andygraybeal> xfce, lxde for the wins  even though i'm in love wth unities
[00:19] <Derpadong> LXDE is meh. Never liked it
[00:19] <sokak> Nach0z, this is the point, we can flavour it as we like (until you are lazy as me and just idle waiting)
[00:19] <Nach0z> unities is too ram-heavy for me. I like lightweight
[00:19] <Derpadong> Sokak, I feel your pain lol
[00:20] <Nach0z> that being said, I don't like the lubuntu-desktop install
[00:20] <Nach0z> I gotta use straight LXDE.
[00:20] <Derpadong> Lol
[00:20] <sokak> Im swimming in ram - i just eat too much of it virtualizing :3
[00:20] <Nach0z> I have tons of ram. I just like to be ... judicious with my ram usage. force of habit.
[00:20] <Derpadong> I need to change my ubuntu from unity to xfce
[00:21] <MahaVishnu> Derpadong$ if you google there is a psychocats link that tells you exactly how
[00:21] <sokak> i agree with both - but im insanely happy from when i switched to ubuntu - finally i can deliver desktop help amongst multiple oses *all in the same moment*
[00:22] <Pr0pe110rHead> Can someone assist with undeleting (preferably) or reinstalling some missing system directories and who knows what else... am I better off running extundelete or just imaging the drive and reinstalling the OS to the copy?
[00:23] <sokak> Pr0pe110rHead, doing from scratch will lead surely to less pain
[00:23] <skegeek> tify 89chevygeek11
[00:24] <b0ef> I have a 10.04 system and shouldn't pressing ESC on boot bring me to the grub menu?. Do I actually have to change grub boot files to enable this?
[00:24] <MahaVishnu> b0ef$ thought it was shift then press e to edit the line you want to boot
[00:24] <b0ef> MahaVishnu: ?, I should hold down shift while booting to bring up the grub menu?
[00:25] <Pr0pe110rHead> sokak: after I image the drive can you help me reinstall the OS to the copy?
[00:25] <MahaVishnu> I think so.
[00:25] <skegeek> When I boot-up the GRUB screen displays too far to the left, but splash and desktop are aligned correctly. Where should I begin for fixing this?
[00:26] <sokak> Pr0pe110rHead, i meant it as its better to reinstall from scratch rather than scavenging inbetween image files and undeleting. Will be less work, straighter, faster.
[00:26] <Pr0pe110rHead> sokak: only trouble is, will  it retain the users, home directories, etc?
[00:27] <Pr0pe110rHead> does extundelete work if you haven't used the system since files were lost?
[00:27] <sokak> Pr0pe110rHead, of course not if you havent put the home folder in a separate partition. Its the best choice by design.
[00:28] <b0ef> MahaVishnu: you're right;)
[00:28] <b0ef> MahaVishnu: thanks..
[00:28] <user82> skegeek, grub customizer can change the resolution of the grub menu. maybe it "accidently" fixes the problem? ( https://launchpad.net/~danielrichter2007/+archive/grub-customizer )
[00:29] <MahaVishnu> b0ef$ np
[00:29] <jimisrvrox2> hey guys quick question is there any way that I can add space to my partition when I have free space but its not contiguous? IE: ntfs partition, free space, linux, linux, linux partitions..any way to add it?
[00:30] <sokak> Pr0pe110rHead, the first time i messed like that, i backed up the home folders, reinstalled from scratch, making a separate home drive (you may as well just use a partition) then i just recreated users in theiur order, and put back home folders from a live boot.
[00:30] <MahaVishnu> jimisrvrox2$ idk. but you could resize the partition with the freespace then move the freespace to the linux partition by resizing it. but you need live-cd and if anything goes wrong during this you will lose data.
[00:30] <user82> jimisrvrox2, not sure about what you want. but in worst case you can still create a partition that mounts somewhere into your existing filesystem
[00:30] <sokak> jimisrvrox2, i wouldnt mess too much wit non contiguous partitios :3 Considered moving to a new and better partitioned drive?
[00:31] <Pr0pe110rHead> sokak: I think the home folders are on another drive.  However, I did not setup this box nor was I responsible for the loss of files.  I'm just the janitor, as it were.
[00:31] <Octopus> Hi all!!!
[00:32] <Octopus> When Xubuntu will run as fast as Lubuntu?
[00:32] <rootjedi> Any one here?
[00:32] <Octopus> When Xubuntu will run as fast as Lubuntu?
[00:32] <Octopus> Admins moders?
[00:32] <Octopus> When Xubuntu will run as fast as Lubuntu?
[00:32] <sokak> Pr0pe110rHead, i see your point. Well, reinstalling from scratch and, during the setup, picking the manual partitioning and replugging the home drive where it belongs, should do the trick (ofc, users have to be recreated as well) the only thing thats odd is, what caused important system folders to be mutilated?
[00:32] <Octopus> Admins moders?
[00:33] <Pr0pe110rHead> sokak: ideally, I would like to undelete the missing directories (/sbin, etc) if indeed they are still there (drive tests pass).  then, I can retain the configuration, settings, data, etc.
[00:33] <us> any help with intermittent screen flicker on 11.10?
[00:34] <Octopus> Why this chat, if I can not get answers to simple questions?
[00:34] <Mattheas> Octopus: Your question is pretty broad.
[00:34] <sokak> Pr0pe110rHead, honestly i never tried single files restores, until now, i always worked just with testdisk (and i love it - right now im backupping 4 tb of stuff i recovered with it) I have no idea then how to proceed in your case
[00:34] <Octopus> Mattheas no
[00:35] <Octopus> there is very simple
[00:35] <rstreeter> I am unable to connect to my wireless I am using 11.10. I have a wireless button and it is not recognized
[00:35] <jimisrvrox2> reason being is im running out of space on my home partition and its jacking up all kinds of stuff but whats funny is if I reboot instead of having 150kb or so left I have like 37mb left and im like wtf
[00:35] <sokak> Octopus, the answer is, when you will stop making broad questions, and focus on finding tutorials on how to optimize it.
[00:35] <MahaVishnu> rstreeter$ try sudo rfkill list
[00:36] <Pr0pe110rHead> sokak:  I've used testdisk, but I don't think it will undelete to the ext3 partition, I think it undeletes to another drive, right?  So, I guess I can complete the image I just started and undelete from the afflicted drive to the copy.  Or, I was thinking extundelete or somesuch.
[00:36] <Mattheas> Octopus: If you say so
[00:36] <Octopus> Mattheas,I think, Canonical should cease to fund Xubuntu and invest in Lubuntu.
[00:36] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> What's Lubuntu ?
[00:36]  * Pengu1n_Phr0zen plays ignorant
[00:37] <Mattheas> Octopus: That's an opinion.
[00:37] <Stepnjump> hi guys, could some one tell me if this is a valid repository please? http://ppa.launchpad.net/THE_PPA/ppa/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found
[00:37] <Octopus> I think Xubuntu has lost its relevance.
[00:37] <MahaVishnu> Octopus$ I disagree and I ask this, what has this got to do with ubuntu support
[00:37] <Pr0pe110rHead> does Linux have a repair option akin to Windows?
[00:37] <nardev> why does    lsof -i:80 | wc     always shows more open/active files than     ps aux | grepa apache | wc   ?
[00:38] <Octopus> Mattheas, This is reality.
[00:38] <Octopus> !
[00:38] <sokak> Pr0pe110rHead, this is the point, i've newer worked in such ways - i always recovered user files, not system files. Btw, i think any undelete application will work from one damaged filesystem to another - undelete in the same place wont work by design
[00:38] <Octopus> Xubuntu does not work faster than Ubuntu with Gnome 2.
[00:38] <Octopus> But Lubuntu fastest and more. And it uses less resources.
[00:38] <flanagan_> Pengu1n_Phr0zen, its an lighter ubuntu, old god workin gon old hardware
[00:38] <Octopus> Xubuntu does not work faster than Ubuntu with Gnome 2.
[00:38] <Octopus> But Lubuntu fastest and more. And it uses less resources.
[00:38] <cab938_home> Is there a way to find a list of all of the events that upstart jobs can be started on?
[00:38] <cab938_home> e.g. startup, runlevel, etc.
[00:38] <arunce> Octopus: how can you say that?
[00:39] <TheDuck> I have a hardware issue, it's not exactly related to Ubuntu, but it's a very problematic issue for my laptop. When I boot it up, the CPU fan makes a banging sound for about 2 seconds then functions correctly. About 20 minutes ago, the fan stopped working temporarily until I cleaned it a bit, but now it just does the banging for a moment, then functioning correctly. If someone here could help or direct me to a channel for hardware advice
[00:39] <TheDuck>  that would be incredibly helpful.
[00:39] <Octopus> I currently use and have used both before distribution.
[00:40] <SoloMenTay> http://paste.ubuntu.com/769587/  That command will properly mount a windows share.  How do I put that in a FSTAB without putting my username and password where everyone can see it?
[00:40] <us> any help with screen flicker on 11.10? i've checked the forums and can't seem to figure it out. Quite the beginner.
[00:40] <Octopus> I currently use and have used both before distribution.
[00:40] <sokak> TheDuck, a can of compressed air, machine oil, or a brand new fan will fix it.
[00:40] <cab938_home> TheDuck, when using oil, you want to remove the sticker that covers the bearing, usually in the middle of the fan
[00:40] <cab938_home> and add a drop of oil there
[00:41] <cab938_home> replacing the fan is usually the best long term solution
[00:41] <sokak> cab938_home, thank you for the fix ;)
[00:41] <cab938_home> sokak, Just thought oil everywhere might not be as intended :)
[00:41] <TheDuck> Sokak There's a problem with all three. I've done the compressed air, I don't know where I would buy machine oil or how to apply it to the bearings, and I can't afford to buy a new fan. I also can't find out how to open the damn thing. I've taken every screw out and the components that aren't fixed to the board.
[00:41] <Octopus> XFCE has long been weak for DE machines, and Canonical is positioning this as a distribution is "for slower machines."
[00:42] <TheDuck> Disregard the not knowing how to put it on. You told me
[00:42] <sokak> TheDuck, only way i can point you is youtube. Search your puter brand + dismantling
[00:42] <Mariorocksyourli> I have a question.
[00:42] <Octopus> bad translate prog sorry
[00:42] <sokak> TheDuck, there you will find also useful kinds of visual tutorials for fan fixing and stuff
[00:42] <szal> !ask | Mariorocksyourli
[00:43] <Octopus> XFCE is now not suitable for older machines.
[00:43] <TheDuck> Crap. I can't get youtube working on this system. It's about 13 years old now.
[00:43] <Mariorocksyourli> Is it possible to put the screen resolution on ubuntu at 1366 x 768
[00:43] <MahaVishnu> Mariorocksyourli$ yes it is.
[00:43] <sokak> TheDuck, i feel you :* I hope you have at least a smartphone :*
[00:43] <Mariorocksyourli> thank you! :)
[00:43] <MahaVishnu> Mariorocksyourli$ in a terminal run cvt 1366 x 758
[00:44] <MahaVishnu> err
[00:44] <MahaVishnu> 1366 768
[00:44] <Octopus> No longer suitable. Xubuntu just slows down for them. A Lubuntu works fine and fast. Then what is the meaning of the sponsor Xubuntu?
[00:44] <TheDuck> I do not. Hell I don't even have the new update for my Xblow to get youtube working on it.
[00:44] <Mariorocksyourli> i might be installing ubuntu on my other computer that is a old compaq 2003 desktop pc.. windows xp is having errors with disk defragment. xD
[00:44] <szal> TheDuck: a new CPU fan is perhaps âŽ10, what's too expensive about that?  chances are that for that money you'll even get a shiny new box w/ fan _and_ heatsink
[00:45] <Octopus> Why are you all silent?
[00:45] <cab938_home> a 13 year old laptop, eh?
[00:45] <cab938_home> yikes
[00:45] <TheDuck> cab938_home, This system is 13.
[00:45] <Octopus> What is your opinion?
[00:45] <TheDuck> My laptop is a year old.
[00:45] <szal> oh, a laptop?  that makes matters more complicated
[00:45] <szal> if it's a desktop computer, that's quite easy
[00:45] <sokak> Then tube on your laptop xD
[00:45] <cab938_home> I guess I missed it, I thought you were taking apart a laptop, if it's a desktop then it certainly should come apart with screws
[00:45] <TheDuck> And it's not cheap for me, Szal. I'm unemployed until I get my license.
[00:46] <Octopus> Where can I find chat of Canonical?
[00:46] <Octopus> Where can I find chat of Canonical?
[00:46] <szal> !repeat | Octopus
[00:46] <cab938_home> but if its 13 year old desktop, you might need to give it some elbow grease
[00:46] <sokak> TheDuck, i feel you, jobless since February
[00:46] <szal> Octopus: and define 'chat of Canonical'
[00:46] <arunce> Octopus: I have xfce on new machines... can't tell much about older ones.
[00:46] <TheDuck> cab938_home, This system I'm on right now, on my IRC, is completely fine. My laptop is the one that's currently a big semi-functional brick.
[00:47] <cab938_home> ah, gotcha
[00:47] <szal> Octopus: and what do you mean by "what is the meaning of the sponsor Xubuntu"?
[00:47] <Octopus> arunce,on the new machines can you use KDE
[00:48] <TheDuck> (Despite being slower than a slug going backward on a turtle's back while the turtle wades through cold molasses, this system is pretty stable)

[00:51] <Octopus> szal, Xubuntu has lost its relevance.
[00:52] <Octopus> It is no longer suitable for slower computers. What is not clear? Xubuntu is no longer needed.
[00:52] <szal> Octopus: seeing that flocks of Gnome 2 lovers are switching over to XFCE, I don't think Xubuntu will become irrelevant anytime soon
[00:52] <cab938_home> Octopus, I think the request was to make your statements clear, your last statement on "I want to Canonical" didn't make ant sense.
[00:52] <MahaVishnu> I wanna banana

[00:57] <Maquiavelo> What could it be?
[00:57] <szal> Octopus: obviously YOU don't understand..  what you're trying to talk about is NOT a support issue
[00:57] <Maquiavelo> I get an USB 1-8: Disconnected
[00:58] <Maquiavelo> But I didn't disconnect it, and its still inside.
[00:58] <szal> Maquiavelo: 8.10 is DEAD and UNSUPPORTED
[00:58] <Maquiavelo> I know... but I can't ask the question ?
[00:58] <szal> Maquiavelo: you can, but don't expect any help
[00:58] <Maquiavelo> Or is it like "Don't talk about it, we kiled that kid"
[00:58] <Maquiavelo> killed*
[00:58] <szal> !intrepid
[00:59] <Maquiavelo> *sigh*
[00:59] <escott> Maquiavelo, there is obviously something wrong with that device or its driver. you should upgrade your kernel. guess what there are new releases for you :-P
[00:59] <Maquiavelo> Its the only one I have at hand anyways.
[00:59] <DaZ> Maquiavelo: we didn't kill anyone
[00:59] <Maquiavelo> escott, I know, it's the only one I Have at hand though =/
[00:59] <chilli0> Hey guys, can anyone assit me in setting up a pptpd server? I have followed a tutorial and whenever i try connecting from my windows box I get 619 error.
[00:59] <Octopus> bb all!
[01:00] <DaZ> and ever if we did, we'd never bury him in the forest :x
[01:00] <daftykins> chilli0: logs are your friend
[01:00] <Maquiavelo> DaZ, haha, well, apparently someone did and put some cement shoes and dropped intrepid in the middle of the ocean.
[01:00] <chilli0> daftykins: hey, how can I check them?
[01:00] <Maquiavelo> It's all very 1984. "Intrepid? what's that?"
[01:01] <daftykins> chilli0: look in /var/log on the server side for pptp daemon related files
[01:01] <pingveno> Does anyone here have experience with package modification? I'm trying to recompile pycairo (aka python-cairo) for Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10.
[01:01] <szal> pingveno: any reason to do so?
[01:01] <escott> Maquiavelo, its just hard to imagine what else we can tell you. nobody here knows much about that system. i don't think I was evening running ubuntu in 2008. one hopes your bug is fixed in newer versions
[01:01] <Maquiavelo> "We've always developed for Oneiric"
[01:01] <melkor> has anybody here written a gnome program plugin for gnome 3?
[01:02] <pingveno> szal: Adding Python 2.7 support to 10.*
[01:02] <chilli0> daftykins: I checked in there, but there is no logs..
[01:02] <szal> pingveno: chances are someone has done that already..  searched the PPA section on Launchpad for packages?
[01:02] <TheLegace> hi could someone please help be get gcc installed
[01:02] <TheLegace> on my ubuntu 11.04
[01:02] <daftykins> chilli0: possibly part of kernel logs then. try "dmesg | tail"
[01:02] <milamber> TheLegace: what have you tried?
[01:03] <pingveno> I have a python2.7 package and it sort of compiles for python2.7.
[01:03] <szal> TheLegace: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[01:03] <TheLegace> well apt-get install gcc build-essential
[01:03] <TheLegace> its missing
[01:03] <szal> TheLegace: no need to specify gcc separately
[01:03] <chilli0> daftykins: that only has stuff about connecting to wireless
[01:03] <milamber> TheLegace: gcc is part of build essential
[01:03] <TheLegace> i know
[01:03] <cano> hola
[01:03] <TheLegace> but its not coming up
[01:03] <milamber> TheLegace: so just: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[01:03] <szal> TheLegace: then where's the problem?
[01:03] <neko> hi, since i have upgrade ubuntu my ati radeon work very bad
[01:04] <TheLegace> E: Package 'build-essential' has no installation candidate
[01:04] <pingveno> It sticks the python2.6 code in /usr/lib/pymodules and /usr/lib/pyshared. The python2.7 code goes into site-packages
[01:04] <neko> ati radeon 5600 anyone with this issue ?
[01:04] <daftykins> chilli0: no subfolder in /var/log for pptp related?
[01:04] <pingveno> build-essentials?
[01:04] <milamber> TheLegace: with an s
[01:04] <szal> milamber: no, without the s
[01:04] <chilli0> daftykins: nop, i think I may have found them, in syslog
[01:05] <TheLegace> unable to locate package
[01:05] <daftykins> chilli0: ah-har, that one slipepd my mind :D
[01:06] <milamber> TheLegace: what version of ubuntu?
[01:06] <szal> !info build-essential natty
[01:06] <TheLegace> 11.04
[01:07] <mody> guys
[01:07] <mody> This driver is not working... everytime I reboot it needs to be reinstalled
[01:07] <milamber> TheLegace: can you pastebin your sources.list?
[01:07] <mody> ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver
[01:07] <TheLegace> i had just used the generated one
[01:07] <pingveno> Screw it. I'm making my own package.
[01:07] <user82>  what is the problem with the open-source drivers mody?
[01:08] <mody> it doesnt work
[01:08] <pingveno> I've spent way too long ******* with this package.
[01:08] <mody> the 3d is working properly
[01:08] <user82> is not working properly?
[01:08] <mody> because that driver isn't working on the laptop
[01:08] <mody> Yes
[01:08] <mody> sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt
[01:09] <mody> then I have to install it again
[01:09] <TheLegace> milamber, ya it looked like my sources.list was fucked up, but i dont know why i generate it all the time from the site
[01:09] <user82> thats crappy...i am also frustrated by ATI's drivers.
[01:09] <mody> cause it shows as not active driver
[01:09] <user82> i use the opensoruce ones
[01:09] <TheLegace> there we go i got it
[01:09] <mody> any alternative driver?
[01:09] <TheLegace> meeh i dont need anythign restricted anyway
[01:09] <TheLegace> so ill just leave it
[01:09] <user82> you can still get the newest ATI driver on their website and test if that works: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx
[01:10] <sokak> silly question - do you have DKMS installed as well?
[01:10] <user82> download the .run file make it executable and start it. if it does not work /usr/share/ati/fglrx-uninstall.sh
[01:10] <milamber> TheLegace: you getting the package now?
[01:10] <TheLegace> milamber, ya no worries ill try and regenerate the list again
[01:11] <TheLegace> i might have added some extra things
[01:11] <TheLegace> that shouldnt need to be ther
[01:11] <mody> what is DKMS
[01:11] <milamber> TheLegace: you shouldn't have to "regenerate"
[01:11] <user82> mody DKMS is the kernel module that is loaded. but it is usualy installed together with the drivers so no special worries about that
[01:12] <user82> i would try the newest ati driver...or google about your computer model and ubuntu
[01:15] <sokak> i agree with user82
[01:16] <sokak> maybe trying to purge the actual drivers and restart them from scratch?
[01:16] <mody> how do I know if I have 32 bit or 64
[01:16] <mody> ?
[01:16] <sokak> mody, uname-a
[01:16] <escott> mody, grep flags /proc/cpuinfo | grep lm
[01:17] <escott> mody, if the grep cpuinfo command comes back with any output you have a "long-mode" aka 64bit processor
[01:18] <sokak> escott, i gave a solution to see whats currently installed instead.
[01:20] <TheLegace> is there a reason the respository is so low
[01:20] <TheLegace> its at 204kb/s when my speed is like 20 times that
[01:21] <sokak> TheLegace, im topping at 62 kbps, and im happy with that :)
[01:21] <TheLegace> ya well when you pay for 16mpbs doesnt make you happy when speed is slow
[01:21] <sokak> TheLegace, your whole internet is so slow?
[01:21] <TheLegace> no speed test is fine
[01:22] <TheLegace> im just a speed whore
[01:22] <sokak> TheLegace, do you pay for repositories?
[01:22] <TheLegace> and i dont want to wait i have work to do
[01:22] <TheLegace> sokak, im not complaining that their slow, i just want to know if theres like yum where i can somehow find the fastest mirror
[01:22] <escott> !mirrors | TheLegace
[01:22] <sokak> :)
[01:22] <TheLegace> because in fedora i can at least switch the mirrors
[01:22] <TheLegace> okie thanks
[01:22] <chilli0> daftykins: Hey, I couldn't seem to get it working still. Do you know any good tutorials?
[01:23] <sokak> i have no clue :) still im happy with it because they use my whole bandwidth ^^
[01:24] <daftykins> chilli0: i'm afraid not, only looked at openvpn once and didn't get far
[01:24] <almoxarife> TheLegace: you can switch mirrors on the installed system
[01:24] <Dj_FlyBy[ms]> stpid question, but I'm tired.... what the term cmd to rename a file again?
[01:24] <Dj_FlyBy[ms]> stupid**
[01:25] <daftykins> Dj_FlyBy[ms]: mv - "move" it
[01:25] <sokak> :)
[01:25] <daftykins> unless you mean Windows "cmd"
[01:25] <daftykins> then "ren"
[01:25] <Dj_FlyBy[ms]> Ubuntu :)
[01:25] <Dj_FlyBy[ms]> no winblows in this house... errr, I mean windows
[01:25] <daftykins> easily made typo ^_^
[01:26] <Dj_FlyBy[ms]> and I notice I made a mistake in my question... I meant to ask how to rename a directory (I just want to add the . to hide it)
[01:26] <sokak> the answer is again mv u.u
[01:27] <Dj_FlyBy[ms]> kk, thx
[01:27] <Dj_FlyBy[ms]> ok**
[01:27] <mody> download the .run file
[01:27] <mody> How do I run it?
[01:28] <sokak> chmod+x then ./namefile.run
[01:28] <TheLegace> the only solutions i can find use synaptic and i cant use synaptic
[01:28] <almoxarife> mody: or double click on it
[01:28] <escott> sokak, watch your spaces. mody chmod +x filename.run then ./filename.run
[01:29] <JUNEX> Hello! just installed ubuntu 10.10 in my Samsung n148-dp03 netbook ubuntu already runs but i dont have wireless.
[01:29] <sokak> escott, youre right. I was meaning it without explicitly typing it :)
[01:29] <TheLegace> ok nvm just got synaptic to work
[01:29] <escott> TheLegace, you can directly edit your /etc/apt/sources.lit
[01:29] <mody> Thanks sokak
[01:30] <mody> you were very helpful
[01:30] <sokak> escott has part in this too - follow literally my hints and shell will swear at you
[01:31] <mody> you were very helpful
[01:31] <sokak> mody, everyone here is helpful, im just the last wheel
[01:32] <mody> I know they are
[01:33] <wx9j> micro sd card will only mount ro, nosuid, how do I get it to mount rw ?
[01:33] <sokak> poking fstab?
[01:34] <escott> wx9j, what kind of filesystem is it
[01:35] <BussyBox> hello
[01:35] <BussyBox> mm...
[01:35] <wx9j> escott, it says vfat when I run mount but it says msdos in preferences
[01:36] <chilli0_> Hello, is there anyway I can check if I have any vpns running on my server, i tried to setup openvpn and another one but not sure if they are properly removed and are now interfering with my current vpn.
[01:37] <cbart> Does anybody know why blogpost.com is loopback? Or, is it a virus?
[01:37] <escott> wx9j, vfat is msdos + long filenames
[01:38] <wx9j> escott, this will mount rw on a pad but not in linux
[01:39] <EvilResistance> cbart:  i'm not sure how that's an ubuntu question...
[01:39] <escott> wx9j, things to check. these sd cards might have read-only toggles physically on the device (like the old floppy write protect). also fsck the filesystem, and send us the output of mount and your attempt to remount it rw
[01:39] <roycebarber> Oh beloved Ubuntu netizens, could you save me from a cruel basic fate.
[01:39] <BussyBox> i have one problem, i can't run ubuntu, when i press the ubuntu option on my grub, after wait, it shows a screen similar like this: http://deimproviso.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/initramfs_bug_1.png
[01:39] <wx9j> fdisk
[01:39] <EvilResistance> roycebarber:  just ask your question >.
[01:39] <EvilResistance> >.> *
[01:40] <cbart> EvilResistance: I use ubuntu. I was making sure it wasn't a weird networking ubuntu only implementation
[01:40] <wx9j> escott,  /dev/sdc1 on /media/F84E-1690 type vfat (ro,nosuid,nodev,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,showexec,flush,uhelper=udisks)
[01:41] <BussyBox> I searched how can i resolve this problem, and i found the followin form: "use the CD live and do ..." but when i try to use a CD Live i can't, the CD Live rules, but when i press Enter in the option "star or install ubuntu" the screen show me another time the (intramfs) prompt...
[01:41] <roycebarber> Ah good an alive room. :D Okay so I bought PureBasic, the programming environment. I got the 32bit edition. But its bugging out on Ubuntu and on Lubuntu. It runs fine on windows. It opens in Ubuntu, but when I try to load an example chunk of code, the interface flashes in and out like it's struggling to stay stable. This may not be an ubuntu question. T_T'
[01:42] <BussyBox> my english sucks, nobody is understand, true? XD
[01:42] <escott> wx9j, and what happens when you try sudo mount -o remount,rw /media/F84E-1690
[01:43] <sokak> BussyBox, whats your mother tongue xD
[01:44] <BussyBox> sokak, catalan
[01:44] <BussyBox> but i can speake spanish too
[01:44] <sokak> BussyBox, ill pass, italy here :)
[01:44] <roycebarber> Fancy. Spanish is very close to English.
[01:44] <wx9j> escott, sudo mount -0 remount,rw/media/F84E-1690
[01:44] <wx9j> [sudo] password for jim:
[01:44] <wx9j> mount: invalid option -- '0'
[01:44] <wx9j> Usage: mount -V                 : print version
[01:44] <wx9j>        mount -h                 : print this help
[01:44] <wx9j>        mount                    : list mounted filesystems
[01:44] <wx9j>        mount -l                 : idem, including volume labels
[01:44] <FloodBot1> wx9j: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:45] <escott> wx9j, thats an oooh not a zero
[01:45] <BussyBox> not much roycebarber ..
[01:45] <sokak> BussyBox, your english is understandable. Which version of linux you use to boot live?
[01:45] <BussyBox> sokak, i have ubuntu 10.04 on my drive disk, but i used the Ubuntu 7.04 to Live CD
[01:45] <roycebarber> I don't imagine any of you are PureBasic users. The PureBasic support chat is deaaaaad.
[01:46] <TransX|mobile> I would go to the terminal and type rm -r
[01:46] <sokak> BussyBox, try a more recent version to boot live, that may make things easier
[01:47] <BussyBox> sokak, i think this is not the problem, but i will try it
[01:48] <wx9j> escott, it says it cannot mount a device and goes on with a list of options I do not understand
[01:48] <DaZ> wx9j: it's o, not zero
[01:49] <wx9j> Daz , thx, I did correct that error. still  cannot mount in RW
[01:49] <cdavis> How do I remove wireless AP's that I have connected to before in gnome-shell?
[01:50] <DaZ> wx9j: spacebar after rw?
[01:50] <chilli0_> Can anyone help me to setup a vpn server using pptp? or link me to a good new tutorial..
[01:52] <escott> wx9j, please paste the error
[01:52] <wx9j> escott, cannot remount block device /dev/sdc1 read-write, is write-protected
[01:53] <escott> wx9j, it is write protected thats why.
[01:53] <ana_sexy> hay
[01:53] <escott> wx9j, http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_remove_write_protection_from_a_mini_SD_card
[01:53] <sokak> wait, do micro sd have a write protect physical switch as well?
[01:54] <escott> sokak, yes
[01:54] <wx9j> escott, thank you I will check that out, this card is not write protected on my android tablet
[01:54] <escott> sokak, well i dont know about micros, but sd certainly do
[01:54] <sokak> escott, thats cool, im reading it
[01:54] <sokak> learning process never ends
[01:54] <escott> wx9j, i would physically inspect the card to make sure
[01:55] <ana_sexy> so all you are hacker :)
[01:55] <wx9j> the card has an adaptor that has a lock but in both positions it reads the same. I do not think the micro card has a lock.
[01:56] <escott> sokak, wx9j apparently the micro sd adapter is what has the write protection
[01:56] <sokak> thats it then :o
[01:56] <escott> wx9j, it could be a bad adapter
[01:57] <FlintWestWood> hello everyone, Firefox doesnât recognize that my computer is connected to my wifi after I wake from suspend. I have to use system monitor to kill it and then restart it. is there a fix for this issue?
[01:57] <sokak> wx9j, rule of thumb is to not stack adapters usually, the less its in the middle, the betetr they work
[01:57] <wx9j> escott, you are correct, I will check another adapter
[01:57] <sokak> FlintWestWood, tried to uncheck work offline in Firefox menu? O.o
[01:58] <FlintWestWood> It acts like its loading and when i close it with out killing it, and try to open it again, it says that there is another firefox instance already running
[01:58] <wx9j> escott, thanks for your help, I will check with another adapter .
[01:58] <tru3fate> can anyone help i install quicken with wine but got a error 7014
[01:58] <FlintWestWood> and it does not  load pages
[01:59] <sokak> FlintWestWood, check that in firefox profile folder there isnt no lock file (with Firefox closed) then try again. Uncheck work offline first. If it doesnt works, try a new firefox profile.
[02:00] <tresk> HI, in which file I have to enter commands which are always processed before any network card goes online? (also after suspend, hybernate)
[02:00] <seidos> tru3fate: maybe try windows in virtual box, and install quicken that way
[02:01] <Scunizi> According to update manager and Muon (kde's update manager) I have updates pending.  Muon bombs when trying to update, update manager won't in the kde environment and cli says there are no updates.. ??? How do I remedy this?
[02:01] <sokak> tru3fate, no hints on winehq database?
[02:03] <escott> tresk, /etc/pm/*.d for the suspend sleep scripts
[02:04] <travisHAZE> Trying to break my system, advice?
[02:04] <Scunizi> NVM.. all of a sudden cli started working..
[02:04] <travisHAZE> Starting first with killing init, kill init and killall 1 wont work
[02:04] <popsch> is there a simple tool with which I can add artwork to mp3s? Audio tag tool doesn't support it and neither does 'Ex falso'
[02:04] <sokak> travisHAZE, here we *solve* problems...
[02:05] <travisHAZE> sokak, and I'm trying to LEARN
[02:05] <sokak> ;P
[02:05] <seidos> travisHAZE: maybe ask in your loco channel
[02:06] <travisHAZE> My loco channel?
[02:06] <seidos> travisHAZE: http://loco.ubuntu.com/
[02:07] <samba23> hello friends ,i am new to kvm i have installed kvm on ubuntu 10.04 and i have installed windows xp on that but i fail to configure networking
[02:07] <tresk> escott: these are the scripts which are executed before the PC enters teh related state?
[02:07] <escott> tresk, the scripts have a specific format and are run on both freeze and thaw
[02:07] <Maquiavelo> Ok, got a new ubuntu... same issue.
[02:07] <sokak> samba23, try the non ose of virtualbox, does wonders
[02:07] <Maquiavelo> How do you get the version of ubuntu from console?
[02:08] <travisHAZE> Pray
[02:08] <seidos> Maquiavelo: cat /etc/issue used to work
[02:08] <samba23> sokak: sorry i don't understand non ose of virtualbox /i dont know
[02:08] <tresk> escott: ok, sounds good. So the power.d is the one which is executed before "ifconfig wlan up" eg. ?
[02:09] <tresk> escott: I mean at boot time .
[02:09] <sokak> Maquiavelo, also lsb_release -a may work
[02:09] <Maquiavelo> Okey, I got lucid 10.04. Is it supported still ?
[02:10] <lduros> I just built a c++ program from source. Where is it customary to place the executable in Ubuntu so that it is available by all users?
[02:10] <sokak> samba23, im lazy about virtualizaion. Virtualbox non OpenSource Edition comes out of the box with easy usb and network support.
[02:10] <samba23> ok
[02:10] <samba23> virtualbox from oracle
[02:10] <Maquiavelo> Okey, ubuntu version, 10.04 (Lucid). I connect a microsd card, the system sees it, scans it, mounts it, and then disconnects it.
[02:11] <sokak> samba23, all other virtualization systems are cool as well, i've just found that virtualbox is less a pita to configure.
[02:11] <escott> tresk, i dont know what power.d directory does sleep.d seems to have hibernate,suspend,resume,thaw targets
[02:11] <samba23> ok
[02:11] <escott> lduros, /usr/local/bin
[02:11] <lduros> escott: ok, and to store the source /usr/local/src?
[02:12] <sandstorm> hi people
[02:12] <Maquiavelo> Okey, ubuntu version, 10.04 (Lucid). I connect a microsd card, the system sees it, scans it, mounts it, and then disconnects it. I plug the card in Windows and it works fine.
[02:12] <lduros> escott: thanks
[02:12] <tresk> escott: ok, thanks anyway I'll trz it out with the good old try&error method :)
[02:12] <sandstorm> ubuntu rulez :)
[02:12] <zeppo> how can i make ubuntu use the windows time system? (not utc)
[02:12] <celthunder> zeppo: in timezone put local
[02:13] <zeppo> k
[02:13] <seidos> Maquiavelo: i had an issue with my sd card reader, i assume it was a driver issue.  haven't messed with it in awhile though
[02:14] <samba23> as in windows we have RDP ,in ubuntu what is best tool/application
[02:14] <escott> samba23, X11 is already network aware. just ssh -X
[02:15] <TransX|mobile> Just type rm -r in terminal
[02:15] <escott> samba23, if your bandwidth is constrainted there are some more efficient variants like NX (FreeNX) or you can always use vnc
[02:16] <escott> Maquiavelo, anything in kern.log
[02:17] <travisHAZE> Is there a command to kill every running process without shutting the pc down?
[02:18] <DaZ> killall something
[02:18] <evildaemon> Hello.
[02:18] <evildaemon> My first question is: Does using dash versus bash effect the execution speed of programs and utilities?
[02:18] <escott> travisHAZE, yes just shutdown but dont hald the processor
[02:18] <sokak> Thats an interesting question travisHAZE
[02:19] <travisHAZE> It is, isn't it sokak?
[02:19] <escott> evildaemon, not unless the script is a shell script, and you wont find many big time consuming shell scripts
[02:19] <wip> how to easily set a static ip for my wireless network on my ubuntu box (my router set it with dhcp but i want the ip to be always 192.168.1.50 for example)?
[02:20] <MahaVishnu> wip$ does your router have address reservation w/ dhcp? like you can set a mac address to always be the same IP. that usually works.
[02:20] <escott> wip, if you want to use dhcp on your router configure the router to give out the same lease to your mac address every time
[02:21] <sokak> travisHAZE, if that is meant to shut other users processes, you may simply change runlevel i guess.
[02:21]  * wip is looking for mac address in router
[02:21] <travisHAZE> Better yet: Is there a good document thats pretty all-inclusive on learning Linux?
[02:21] <travisHAZE> Like A-Z and 0 - 392845091785230
[02:22] <travisHAZE> Hell, why start at 0?
[02:22] <MahaVishnu> travisHAZE$ the man pages are pretty good. for command line programs. like man programname
[02:22] <sokak> i have no answer for that travisHAZE but google is a good start to gather the scattered papers.
[02:22] <travisHAZE> the man pages help me learn how to use a command
[02:22] <tresk> escott: fyi, mabe I use the /etc/init.d/network script for normal up and down modes and the /etc/pm scripts for suspend eg.
[02:22] <travisHAZE> It doesn't tell me all of the commands
[02:22] <evildaemon> travisHAZE: all of the commands? compgen -c -f
[02:22] <evildaemon> Or tab twice.
[02:22] <sokak> travisHAZE, if you want useful commands, go to commandlinefu.com. Its handful.
[02:24] <travisHAZE> OK so theres a start: the commands
[02:24] <travisHAZE> Probably the biggest part
[02:24] <sokak> plenty.
[02:24] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> I wanna do some tunnelling over SSH.
[02:24] <sokak> thats the motherlode of shell snippets.
[02:24] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> Any takers?
[02:24] <travisHAZE> How about if I wanted to design my own program?
[02:25] <horse1bun> am I still here
[02:25] <evildaemon> Learn python.
[02:25] <sokak> travisHAZE, the best starting point is to learn existing ones, then learn how to combo them scripting. then you can move to learn programming languages.
[02:25] <horse1bun> nice yea good idea, I should dive into python
[02:25] <travisHAZE> Baby steps are a good idea
[02:25] <travisHAZE> But even a baby needs a hand to hold
[02:25] <travisHAZE> So where can I find this proverbial hand to hold?
[02:26] <sokak> yeah, learn them, use them, combine them, then build whats missing.
[02:26] <evildaemon> Also travisHAZE, you can press tab twice.
[02:26] <travisHAZE> evildaemon, got that one
[02:26] <horse1bun> try Kturtle
[02:26] <evildaemon> The benefit of compgen is that you can direct the outpit to places.
[02:26] <evildaemon> *output
[02:26] <mig_seixas> hello !
[02:27] <horse1bun> I am playing around with Celestia so I can write some scripts for it
[02:27] <horse1bun> I love that App
[02:28] <horse1bun> nothing liberates quite like astral traveling
[02:28] <sokak> then dont miss celestia motherlode, google for it.
[02:29] <evildaemon> Anyway, I once saw a grep script that took 9 minutes to execute.
[02:29] <travisHAZE> What is an #ifdef?
[02:29] <evildaemon> The dude eventually realized he had to do the --lang=C option.
[02:29] <sokak> evildaemon, it all depends on how much data you grep
[02:30] <evildaemon> Of course, that was on a solaris related system.
[02:30] <evildaemon> Not Linux.
[02:30] <sokak> travisHAZE, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_preprocessor
[02:31] <sokak> wiki is full of stuff.
[02:31] <evildaemon> It is.
[02:31] <evildaemon> Wiki actually has a surprising amount of general unix knowledge.
[02:32] <sokak> yeah, a handy place to gather papers.
[02:32] <travisHAZE> So an #ifdef is a conditional inclusion of a macro definition?
[02:32] <evildaemon> Arch wiki is pretty awesome.
[02:32] <sokak> Arch phylosophy is - they dont thell you just what, but why and how.
[02:33] <horse1bun> the non profit I work for has an astronomy program, so I wanted to put together sort of a "tour of the universe"
[02:33] <evildaemon> I think that the Ubuntu wiki needs more TLC.
[02:33] <horse1bun> showing where we are in the milky way galaxy
[02:33] <sokak> just thinking it wont help - arch is what is because of active contributions ;)
[02:34] <evildaemon> Anyway, my second question was: in 11.10 (I tried both Unity-buntu and Xubuntu) my wireless won't connect. It will broadcast, it will pick up signal, but not connect.
[02:34] <sokak> evildaemon, which chipset you have?
[02:34] <evildaemon> I've tried two different adapters.
[02:34] <evildaemon> And a built-in card.
[02:34] <evildaemon> Same results.
[02:35] <sokak> focus on one, and lets try to see whats going wrong.
[02:35] <horse1bun> and If I can't write a script then at the least I can fly around and operate it myself
[02:35] <sokak> horse1bun, thats all great, but we are in #ununtu, not #celestia ;)
[02:35] <somsip> horse1bun: worth looking at stellarium maybe
[02:35] <sokak> *eats the n and spews a b
[02:36] <horse1bun> oh sorry I thought the two were related somehow
[02:36] <sokak> somsip, stellarium is just a different point of view of Celestia ;)
[02:36] <somsip> sokak: as soon as you mentioned celestia I realised that was the one I meant to recomment :)
[02:37] <sokak> i agree horse1bun its just that we should keep ubuntu issue related somehow, but im not the channel op, so please feel free to ignore me ;3
[02:37] <horse1bun> so ubuntu has nothing to do with celestia, i thought ubuntu made it
[02:38] <horse1bun> I'm just one of those leechers here for the free software
[02:38] <evildaemon> Can someone explain open-source to horse1bun?
[02:38] <somsip> horse1bun: celestia is written by a group of people and they make it freely available. ubuntu makes a package of their software available for users of ubuntu
[02:39] <horse1bun> yea that's kind of what I thought
[02:39] <horse1bun> I just didn't want to sound stupid
[02:39] <sokak> hey hey - lets not fight about that - at the very end we are here to enjoy and help right? My apologies horse1bun if i stinged a nerve
[02:40] <horse1bun> no it's okay I was just a bit confused
[02:40] <sokak> :)
[02:40] <evildaemon> The card is a broadcom corporation BCM4321
[02:41] <evildaemon> Yeah I know, broadcom.
[02:41] <evildaemon> It's worked in previous versions, and I tried a linksys. So thats not the problem./
[02:41] <horse1bun> all software available on ubuntu is like modular software packages all developed separately just able to function on the operating system?
[02:41] <evildaemon> Yup.
[02:41] <l1nuxman> what do i do about this error? "Dynamic MMap ran out of room. Please increase the size of APT::Cache-Limit."
[02:41] <MahaVishnu> horse1bun$ alot of stuff depends on other stuff though
[02:41] <evildaemon> Including Linux itself.
[02:42] <somsip> And core packages that make up the GNU part of GNU/Linux
[02:42] <evildaemon> Ubuntu is Mark shuttleworths fork of Debian.
[02:42] <sokak> evildaemon, i would give the drivers they offer a try, if jockey isnt able to find appropriate ones http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php
[02:42] <evildaemon> Which is a system made from the GNU utilities and the Linux kernel.
[02:42] <horse1bun> oh yea I remember seeing the linux evolution tree
[02:43] <evildaemon> sokak, Jockey DOES, it still doesn't connect.
[02:43] <evildaemon> What part of "The problem persists across devices" don't you understand?
[02:44] <sokak> ^^
[02:44] <sokak> then try to peep here, evildaemon http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1861220
[02:44] <horse1bun> yea I just managed to get my broadcom wireless pci working in Lucid
[02:45] <sokak> we can survive the broadcom omen :|
[02:45] <horse1bun> I tried ndiswrapper but then ran into a problem because nidiswrapper (file) is supposed to be named ndiswrapper.conf
[02:46] <evildaemon> THE PROBLEM ISN'T BROADCOM! (And that thread isn't my issue.)
[02:46] <horse1bun> whilst trying to sort that out, I found out broadcom released an open source driver
[02:46] <evildaemon> It worked in 10.10
[02:46] <sokak> i always fixed it quick and dirty with ralink adapters (branded d-link)
[02:46] <horse1bun> or rather a proprietary supported
[02:47] <evildaemon> and on top of that.
[02:47] <evildaemon> The card detects networks, is recognized as a device, and broadcasts.
[02:47] <evildaemon> It just won't connect to other networks.
[02:47] <horse1bun> now I finally have it functioning, but for some reason it shows up as eth0 instead of wlan
[02:48] <sokak> :| Always fixed such issues trying to make a new connection from scratch, or poking like suggested in those threads :|
[02:48] <horse1bun> and everytime I start the computer I have to type sudo modprobe wl to get the wireless working
[02:48] <sokak> horse1bun, same here, on an eeepc, but im not giving a damn, it works
[02:48] <horse1bun> same here lol
[02:48] <sokak> ahh, thats odd, its not happening to me
[02:49] <sokak> i dont have to do the modprobe thingy
[02:51] <N4N33_ST8> test
[02:51] <horse1bun> one of those times where I'm not sure how I got it to work even, just kept trying stuff until it did, lol
[02:52] <horse1bun> but maybe I should just get a newer distro
[02:53] <sokak> my rule of thumb is "dont poke it if works"
[02:54] <travisHAZE> My rule of thumb is
[02:54] <travisHAZE> Poke it until it breaks, then poke it some more
[02:54] <sokak> theire both good :)
[02:54] <seidos> my rule of thumb is: "keep it from getting cut off."
[02:54] <travisHAZE> That was how I got my first kill
[02:54] <travisHAZE> I poked this one person to death with a stick
[02:54] <ibingow> ask some question about cron. /etc/crontab, has this line:45 10   * * *   root    test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily ), but the scripts in cron.daily never run. If change to: 45 10   * * *   root    cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily, scripts run! why?
[02:54] <sokak> whoa stickfights?
[02:54] <travisHAZE> No
[02:54] <travisHAZE> I was just poking him
[02:55] <l1nuxman> Can someone help? I can't install software because i get this error: W: GPG error: http://ftp.us.debian.org wheezy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY AED4B06F473041F
[02:55] <travisHAZE> Eventually he keeled over and died
[02:55] <travisHAZE> So I kept poking
[02:55] <travisHAZE> Cause I hadn't poked a dead body
[02:55] <horse1bun> were you hazing them?
[02:55] <horse1bun> lol
[02:55] <travisHAZE> Haze is the middle name ma momma gave me
[02:55] <nac4l> I'm trying to setup a mail exchange server (i guess).  I have a dyndns/free domain for my apache2 server right now (only service i'm familiar with).  I just want to be able to setup a mx mail service so I can have a new email system on my machine/server.  Which one should I use, I'm thinking pop3, but there's many options, what is the best???
[02:56] <travisHAZE> pop3 leaves it on the server
[02:56] <travisHAZE> And you download a copy
[02:56] <SwedeMike> travisHAZE: that's up to the pop3 client.
[02:56] <Frozenpacket> Does anyone know of a good Client Server for host domain email accounts?
[02:56] <travisHAZE> Pop3 leaves a copy on the server
[02:56] <sokak> l1nuxman, read here http://en.kioskea.net/faq/809-debian-apt-get-no-pubkey-gpg-error
[02:56] <travisHAZE> Its the IMTP or w/e it is that erases it
[02:56] <SwedeMike> travisHAZE: the client can delete it.
[02:56] <nac4l> so do you guys know anything about setting it up?  Do I need to use evolution, or are there terminal based servers/ui thingy's that are better.
[02:56] <nac4l> it's just mail..
[02:57] <travisHAZE> No, its Email
[02:57] <travisHAZE> not just mail
[02:57] <SwedeMike> travisHAZE: http://www.korokithakis.net/tutorials/email/
[02:58] <Frozenpacket> Does anyone know of a good server client i could download for hosting Domain adressed emails?
[02:58] <nac4l> ah so mail is local network and email is remote...  didn't know they had to differentiate, that's lame, you can't combine the service into one solution/
[02:58] <Frozenpacket> email accounts*
[02:59] <nac4l> I tried setting up my router dyn service and the DynDNS account (which is mcurran-exploit.dyndns.org) to mail.mcurran-exploit.dyndns.org
[02:59] <travisHAZE> swede, thats not an auto delete
[02:59] <travisHAZE> Thats a manual thing
[02:59] <SwedeMike> nac4l: email can be delivered to a A pointer as well, so just use mcurran-exploit.dyndns.org.
[03:00] <SwedeMike> travisHAZE: neither IMAP nor POP3 has auto delete. it's always an action by the client.
[03:00] <travisHAZE> Then an IMAP client is programmed to automatically delete said email once it receives them
[03:01] <SwedeMike> travisHAZE: some might be, but that's not the standard.
[03:01] <travisHAZE> Outlook, evolution, thunderbird all do it automatically for IMAP
[03:01] <travisHAZE> only email clients I've used
[03:02] <SwedeMike> travisHAZE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Message_Access_Protocol "E-mail clients using IMAP generally leave messages on the server until the user explicitly deletes them. This and other characteristics of IMAP operation allow multiple clients to manage the same mailbox."
[03:02] <sokak> gppdbye everyone, rl time u.u
[03:02] <l1nuxman> thank ou sokak that did it
[03:02] <skegeek> msg nickserv identify 89chevygeek11
[03:02] <sokak> yw l1nuxman
[03:02] <travisHAZE> I specifically use IMAP because it erases the emails from the server once it retrieves them
[03:02] <SwedeMike> skegeek: good one.
[03:02] <skegeek> ??
[03:02] <xangua> skegeek: interesting #fail
[03:02] <skegeek> Crap
[03:03] <SwedeMike> travisHAZE: there might be some default in there, but there is nothing in the protocol that says that.
[03:03] <zombastiq> system cannot see my usb hard drive dock... is there potential for a solution?
[03:03] <travisHAZE> POP3 has always left the mail on the server while IMAP always deleted it
[03:03] <travisHAZE> (For me at least)
[03:04] <SwedeMike> travisHAZE: well, that might be your experience with the defaults in your specific clients you've tried, but there is nothing general by those protocols that says this is always the case.
[03:04] <Flannel> travisHAZE: Thats generally the opposite, actually.
[03:05] <godofmischief> after making a file executable using chmod +x if i type the file name in the CLI says command not found, if i double click it via nautilus it says must be run as root, what's the proper way to execute a file as root once its been made executable?
[03:06] <egoga> What is foo?
[03:06] <travisHAZE> Flannel, sorry I'm against the grain unwittingly. SwedeMike I will admit I know nothing of the inherent defaults associated with each of these protocols, I was speaking from personal experience
[03:07] <zombastiq> usb device does not show up in lsusb.  how can i force detect?
[03:07] <drewis_> godofmischief: sudo ./filename
[03:08] <Guest26856> anyone want to help a linux newb with setting up wpa_supplicant?

[03:09] <Guest26856> and I got openssl and freeradius set up, but in the 'configuring a linux clien' section it says configure wpa_supplicant with the following options in ".config" file
[03:10] <Guest26856> but I have a newer version of wpa_supplciant and there is no .config file???
[03:11] <seidos> Guest26856: i have some notes on wpa_supplicant somewhere that may help you
[03:11] <Guest26856> there is config.c and config.h but they don't have the kind of script the gyide shows
[03:12] <seidos> Guest26856: i think you want /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
[03:13] <Guest26856> well the next step after that they say Next edit "wpa_supplicant.conf" and add a section similar to the following,
[03:13] <Guest26856> so I think they are 2 different files completely
[03:14] <Guest26856> what I'm stuck on is - Configure wpa_supplicant with the following options set in ".config" file

[03:25] <samba23> what i should do then
[03:25] <samba23> i use vnc
[03:26] <daftykins> if you're in Ubuntu, enable remote desktop then you can connect to it using VNC
[03:27] <samba23> my server is ubuntu and windows 7 is vnc client

[03:31] <chester> Hi all. Never used IRC before, so will try not to annoy anyone. I've been reading around online for about an hour trying to solve a problem, and thought maybe it would be more useful if someone might help me?
[03:31] <aeon-ltd> chester: ask away
[03:31] <jrib> chester: on irc we prefer that you just ask your question.  If someone can help, they'll respond
[03:32] <nac4l> where can I find help on setting up a mail server, maybe with pop3 (not sure), and have the ability to send and receive email from my machine, and use ADDRESS as my free dyndns account "mcurran-exploit.dyndns.org"?
[03:32] <chester> I just installed Ubuntu on an ooold dekstop system at my work. When I logged in for the first time, it looked like the desktop was too big.
[03:32] <skegeek> Is Unity the reason for the menu on the left?
[03:32] <chester> I assume it's a resolution issue, so I've been trying to figure out how to modify my xconf.org
[03:32] <nac4l> Everything I've found is way to in depth already and I'm a noob at exchange mail shit.
[03:33] <Xenicide> jrib, if i drag a file it just copy, and i cant see any paste option by right-clicking.
[03:33] <nac4l> should I use evolution or a terminal based email server/client.  And is there any simple tutorials on setting one up?  I though there is already several email services installed by default in ubunutu, can I use htose?
[03:34] <chester> How do I write an xconf.org file to make my screen resolution higher?
[03:34] <seidos> nac4l: maybe start with evolution, and go to a cli one later?
[03:34] <nac4l> setup a display section in xorg.conf,
[03:35] <chester> @nac4l, how do I know what to include in the display section?
[03:36] <jhirn> Hi. Gnome-shell hard crashes on me a few times a day. I have to hold power to power off the laptop. What log files or diagnostics can I run to determine the root?
[03:36] <robin0800> chester: if your using unity you can click the top right corner and choose system settings
[03:38] <skegeek> I can't get Ubuntu to stop freezing when it's been idle for a few minutes.
[03:39] <chester> @robin0800, the display is not detected, and the only resolution to choose is 640x480\
[03:40] <qovii> heh.  i'm ircing on my  ipod toich
[03:41] <aruncn1> java
[03:42] <TheLegace> could someone please tell me how i can add .pc file to the pkg-config
[03:42] <TheLegace> system
[03:43] <ImTheDude> in preferences and sound i raised the level on my microphone and ran a test on skype and still no sound?
[03:43] <ImTheDude> what do i do?
[03:49] <cordor> is there any reason ubuntu only show 1 core?
[03:50] <aeon-ltd> cordor: you only have one core?
[03:51] <aeon-ltd> cordor: what processor?
[03:52] <cordor> found a sempron 145, unlocked and booted up, but only 1 core there.
[03:52] <daftykins> semprons only ever were single core i thought
[03:53] <cordor> daftykins: "unlocked"
[03:53] <daftykins> yep single
[03:53] <daftykins> cordor: what relevance does the multiplier state have to core count? :)
[03:54] <hh> I tried installing compiz, but a weird thing happens: first of all, alt+tab doesn't work at all (even if I enable 'static application switcher'); and the cube is just a two-sided sheet.
[03:54] <hh> Do you know how to resolve this?
[03:54] <daftykins> install simple-ccsm and tweak it to how you want
[03:54] <daftykins> you need four workspaces to have a cube of course ;)
[03:55] <hh> I have four before I run "compiz -replace ccp", but it turns it into 2.
[03:55] <hh> simple-ccsm? I'll try that.
[03:56] <hh> I get "Package simple-ccsm is not available, but is referred to by another package." when I try apt-get.
[03:56] <cordor> daftykins: core and multiplier are 2 things.
[03:56] <daftykins> cordor: different things yep
[03:56] <Flannel> hh: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[03:57] <hh> I installed it a few weeks ago, but I'm not sure. I think 11.something...
[03:57] <cordor> i havn't touch multiplexer yet, i only unloaded the core.
[03:57] <Flannel> hh: `lsb_release -a` in a terminal will tell you
[03:58] <cordor> i was hoping if it works. i will do it on the other cpu.
[03:58] <hh> 11.10
[03:58] <nemo> Hey guys, I was going to attempt to install ubuntu 64 on top of an existing 32 bit install
[03:58] <nemo> And I was thinking about how I could most quickly get back to the env I was accustomed to
[03:59] <Flannel> hh: So, the reason you can't install simple-ccsm is because it doesn't exist in 11.10.  I'm not sure what a replacement would be though, unfortunately.
[03:59] <nemo> sooo. I figured I could note down every package installed right now
[03:59] <hh> Hmmm...
[03:59] <nemo> ideally ones that I chose to install
[03:59] <nemo> how best could I get that list?
[03:59] <blarney> gnome shell crashed on me (11.10) and is not reloading.  i dont have a window manager or anything, but I can start programs (but not switch between them) by browsing the filesystem and double clicking the executables.  given that, how do i restart gnome-shell?
[03:59] <nemo> sudo apt-get install xxxxx but ideally not including pulled in dep yyyyy
[04:00] <nemo> blarney: open a terminal
[04:00] <nemo> type gnome-shell
[04:00] <nemo> :)
[04:00] <nemo> gnome-terminal that is
[04:00] <nemo> that's how I did it
[04:01] <blarney> ah, that makes sense...
[04:01] <nemo> blarney: since gnome-shell was crashing on me once a minute I actually put into terminal   while((1));do gnome-shell;done
[04:01] <nemo> until it got too annoying
[04:01] <nemo> I'm on XFCE4 now
[04:01] <blarney> nemo: thanks ill kill chromium and try that
[04:01] <nemo> blarney: I was using fglrx FWIW
[04:01] <ImTheDude> how do i get my sound to work in skype ?
[04:01] <blarney> nemo: how is XFCE?  I tried it years ago and it seemed to be horrendously outdated and nothing was integrated...
[04:01] <nemo> blarney: gotten a bit better
[04:02] <nemo> blarney: can't hurt to install it if you have 125MiB to burn
[04:02] <ImTheDude>  i already uped the volume in my sound preferences
[04:02] <nemo> I find it requires fewer mouse clicks than Unity, and is less inclined to do WTF things like resize my terminal when I flip between desktops and machines (synergy2)
[04:02] <blarney> ImTheDude: try running a sound test within skype (you may want to put your volume at bout 50%) and follow the instructions.  that has worked for me whenever ive used skype.
[04:03] <nemo> blarney: BTW. another thing I hated about gnome-shell - I like translucent terminals, but junk on my desktop and in windows behind them makes it hard to read the text
[04:03] <nemo> blarney: in Unity and gnome2 w/ compiz, you can enable blurring of translucent windows
[04:03] <blarney> nemo: ah, thanks, the mouse travel in G3 and the number of clicks to do anything in unity is driving me up a wall.  ill see what i can do with XFCE.
[04:03]  * qovii recently moved to xfce from fluxbox and loves it
[04:03] <nemo> blarney: breaks up sharp lines in text behind terminal windows - as far as I can tell, this is impossible in gnome-shell
[04:03] <ImTheDude> i ran test on skype and i raised the volume in my sound preferences and still no sound.
[04:04] <nemo> blarney: gnome-shell was more usable w/ the mint gnome shell extensions
[04:04] <nemo> blarney: you can get those from the webupd8 ppa
[04:04] <blarney> nemo: yeah, i dont know why theyre in love with that, it really has to be a subtle blending to work well
[04:04] <ImTheDude> theres not a pluging is there
[04:05] <blarney> nemo: so the webupd8 ppa is alright then?  i hadnt heard of them before and i didnt want their ppa messing with stuff
[04:05]  * nemo shrugs
[04:05] <nemo> blarney: seems fine to me
[04:05]  * qovii decides ircing on ipod tou h is suboptimal
[04:05] <nemo> blarney: they have a gnome3 specific one - check their blog
[04:05] <blarney> ImTheDude: im sorry, i didnt understand what you last said - is there or is there not a plugin?
[04:05] <blarney> nemo: ah, thanks, will do
[04:05] <nemo> qovii: heh. when I IRC on the android tablet, I plug in my desktop keyboard.
[04:05] <nemo> qovii: yay for USB support :)
[04:06] <blarney> ImTheDude: brb
[04:06] <ImTheDude> i dont know is there something i need to download from package mannager or software center to help my microphone work better?
[04:07] <nemo> ImTheDude: heh.  internal mic not working?
[04:07] <ImTheDude> ya
[04:07] <ImTheDude> nemo
[04:07] <nemo> ImTheDude: laptop or something, ALC892 card?
[04:07] <qovii> i'm using ircII
[04:07] <ImTheDude> yes nemo
[04:07] <hh> Flannel: can I install a package that's meant for an old version of ubuntu?
[04:07] <ImTheDude> netbook
[04:07] <nemo> ImTheDude: depending on the audio codec, support under linux is hit or miss.  I filed a few bugs against my laptop actually. that was one of them
[04:08] <ImTheDude> so what do i do?
[04:08] <ImTheDude> i running an acer net book with internel speekers
[04:08] <nemo> ImTheDude: well, as I recall, there are a *ton* of variations you can try. apparently the manufacturer implementations are wide and varied
[04:08] <ImTheDude> and sound is not functioning
[04:09] <nemo> ImTheDude: you know, when setting up your codec
[04:09] <nemo> but whether one of those will work is really... well... who knows
[04:09] <nemo> ImTheDude: I'd definitely start at a minimum by filing a bug on launchpad
[04:09] <ImTheDude> so its a shot in the dark
[04:09] <nemo> ImTheDude: try testing an external mic if you can get one. even a cheap $5 one
[04:09] <nemo> ImTheDude: you can also try filing a bug w/ the kernel folks
[04:10] <nemo> but really, it is about waiting on some nice kernel person to do the manufacturer's job for them ;)
[04:10] <nemo> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/791904 - filed this one for example
[04:10] <ImTheDude> so try external is what your telling is the best plan
[04:10] <nemo> ImTheDude: my mom's internal mic didn't work, but after switching codec settings, it did
[04:10] <nemo> ImTheDude: check launchpad and forum for existing reports for your audio device
[04:11] <ImTheDude> i dont know how or where to do that?
[04:11] <nemo> try the changes to audio module config
[04:11] <ImTheDude> where do i do that and how?
[04:11] <nemo> often times there are settings for it they suggest
[04:11] <nemo> ImTheDude: do you know your audio card? should be listed in lspci
[04:11] <nemo> for example...
[04:11] <nemo> $ lspci | grep -i audio
[04:11] <nemo> 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02)
[04:11] <ImTheDude> wheres that
[04:11] <nemo> run that on a terminal
[04:11] <ImTheDude> lspci
[04:12] <ImTheDude> i type lspci
[04:12] <nemo> once you have the chipset info, you can search for other reports
[04:12] <ImTheDude> in terminal
[04:12] <nemo> there might be a config tweak you can do
[04:12] <ImTheDude> what do i type in the terrminal
[04:12] <ImTheDude> do you know
[04:13] <nemo> lspci
[04:13] <nemo> ImTheDude: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto - here's a guide someone wrote
[04:13] <nemo> listen. I just came by here to get a list of packages. I figured out how to do it, so I'm gonna go work on my new hardware
[04:13] <nemo> ImTheDude: good luck try google, try suggestions on that page, and definitely file a bug
[04:13] <nemo> seeya
[04:14] <ImTheDude> how do screen shot

[04:18] <Hilikus> is it possible?
[04:18] <qbert_> I have unallocated space on my drive, how can I add it to my main root point ?
[04:19] <Hilikus> qbert_: grow your partition
[04:19] <travisHAZE> theres a partition manager
[04:19] <travisHAZE> in ubt
[04:19] <jetscreamer> gparted isn't it
[04:19] <qbert_> gparted ?
[04:19] <Linuxnut> Use gparted
[04:19] <qbert_> Hilikus, what tool do you use for that ?
[04:19] <travisHAZE> isn't gparted the command line partition manager?
[04:19] <Hilikus> qbert_: gparted
[04:19] <jetscreamer> nah that's parted
[04:19] <Linuxnut> Nope gui
[04:19] <jetscreamer> the g is gnome gui i think
[04:20] <qbert_> ya
[04:20] <robin0800> travisHAZE: doubt you can do that as root will be mounted
[04:20] <travisHAZE> Not if you have a live usb install
[04:20] <qbert_> so I use the live cd, then us gparted ?
[04:20] <qbert_> brilliant

[04:35] <samba23> how to get X windows/gui using ssh i am using putty
[04:36] <Linuxnut> to use xserver in putty install xming
[04:36] <samba23> ok
[04:37] <wind> erek: if you're not afraid of console you could also install ubuntu-server and then add only a light window manager (like fluxbox and such) and only those apps you need
[04:37] <Linuxnut> A base install of debian is like 10 mb
[04:38] <erek> i just want it to be super userfriendly for my dad to use

[04:38] <Hilikus> erek: if you want simplicity you will probably have to go with a full-blown gnome desktop
[04:38] <Maquiavelo> Hmm, okey I just installed ubuntu on a USB Stick as per the instructions. It boots up. It says "Run Ubuntu from this USB" i hit enter, the computer makes a beep noise and returns to the menu.
[04:39] <Hilikus> xfe and these lightweights are not super userfriendly IMO
[04:39] <Linuxnut> I NO I NO Puppy linux
[04:40] <wind> Hilikus: still, it's not much to learn to start browser with right button on the desktop and after that it's like on any computer ;) but yes, xubuntu should be nice with those specs too
[04:41] <litropy> Hi, peeps. I had an HDTV hooked up to my comp, and I custom configured it to only display on the HDTV. Well, the HDTV is gone, and now when I boot my ubuntu partition, it's pretty much unmanagable because the dimensions are all out of whack. I can, however, get to a command prompt, and I'm looking for the command(s) to set things back to default. Thank you very much in advance.
[04:41] <erek> do you think ubuntu will run decently on a pentium m 1.86GHz?
[04:41] <Linuxnut> Puppy linux is what your dad needs it will run on like 64 megs of ram and its ez to use and fast to install i will run on computers from th 90's
[04:42] <Hilikus> litropy: try renaming xorg.conf in etc/X11
[04:42] <Linuxnut> *the
[04:42] <wind> erek: I don't think it will be too bad if he only uses like a web browser and doesn't multitask much
[04:42] <litropy> Quick note: no dice in setting things back using the monitor config panel - the custom config just confuses the monitor config panel beyond use.
[04:42] <erek> wind what about tabs, multiple tabs in a browser
[04:42] <trav|zzz> Query: Is there a way to have Ubuntu auto suspend and unsuspend at specific times? (EG Suspend at midnight and unsuspend at 6am?)
[04:42] <litropy> Hilikus, will do and report back.
[04:43] <wind> erek: some people have 100 tabs and it's slow, some have a few and it's not much of a difference
[04:43] <Linuxnut> Puppy boots in less than a minute, even in old PCs, and it does not require antivirus software. Administering Puppy is quick and minimal. With Puppy, you just have to take care of your data, which you can easily save to USB flash (Then forget about your operating system!). Your data can be read by other computers.
[04:44] <wind> erek: why not just try it since other things add up to the experience too, like speed of the hard disk. you could always turn the already installed ubuntu into xubuntu with a few lines
[04:44] <newmember> erek, I am on a IntelÂŪ Pentium(R) D CPU 2.80GHz Ã 2 with 4 Gig RAM, it works but things like google earth is choppy
[04:44] <Maquiavelo> Anyone?
[04:44] <Maquiavelo> Hmm, okey I just installed ubuntu on a USB Stick as per the instructions. It boots up. It says "Run Ubuntu from this USB" i hit enter, the computer makes a beep noise and returns to the menu.
[04:44] <erek> newmember: hmm
[04:45] <Linuxnut> You don't have to save data to hard drive to work with Puppy. You can save data to USB flash or even to Internet storage (like www.drop.io ). When installed to USB flash, Puppy consumes only a little over 100 MB, or about 256 MB with OpenOffice. You can use the same USB flash (where Puppy is installed) for saving data.

[04:49] <trav|zzz> Query: Is there a way to have Ubuntu auto suspend and unsuspend at specific times? (EG Suspend at midnight and unsuspend at 6am?)
[04:49] <wind> Linuxnut: what browser does Puppy come with? I was supprised that debian+fluxbox+iceweasel ran very smoothly with heavy sites like facebook, on a 1.13GHz P3 with 768MB :) but it was a bit older firefox with some stripped (and added) features
[04:49] <erek> newmember: is it better to install directly, or install from live cd
[04:50] <Linuxnut> You can use firefox chrome etc
[04:50] <erek> newmember: i've installed from live cd a fedora 12, but it seems to be getting "slow" which is odd because linux usually doesn't do that

[04:51] <urlin2u> erek, fedora is slow or another?
[04:51] <trav|zzz> chalce, what "spot" do you want to find?
[04:51] <erek> urlin2u: fedora 12 got slow after time
[04:51] <boldfilter> depends on how big the spot is
[04:52] <chalcedony> trav|zzz, he's got two hard drives, he's got room for my data on one of them
[04:52] <erek> urlin2u: i think some apps are sort loaded or soemthing from saving states after restarting

[04:52] <urlin2u> erek, this channel doen't really cover fedora but #fedora does
[04:52] <erek> sorry about that
[04:52] <urlin2u> erek, easy mistake no problem.
[04:52] <erek> urlin2u: i heard that ubuntu is the best netbook linux distribution
[04:52] <erek> that's why i am here
[04:53] <trav|zzz> Well the hard drives are going to be marked as sda and sdb
[04:53] <erek> i figured with netbook specs, a pentium m 1.86GHz 1GB DDR2 fit the bill
[04:53] <chalcedony> trav|zzz, he's a gui user, i'm command line. i don't understand what he does
[04:53] <urlin2u> erek, best is a personal thing really. :D
[04:53] <trav|zzz> so you would (I assume, haven't done multiple hds on ubuntu yet, byt read on it) go cd /dev/sda or cd /dev/sdb in the terminal chalce
[04:54] <wind> oh yes, isn't there that netbook version of ubuntu which is separate? maybe that'd work with an older big laptop too, if it's just for launching a browser
[04:54] <urlin2u> erek, the unity desktop resemples the original netbook desktop that is probably all really.
[04:54] <trav|zzz> wind, lubuntu is what your thinking of

[04:55] <chalcedony> trav|zzz, thanks :)
[04:55] <chalcedony> np
[04:55] <erek> i heard the integrated the netbook stuff into 10.04+
[04:55] <wind> trav|zzz: you can set up suspend in crontab but waking up is another thing, I think it needs some bios setting if it's even supported on the hardware

[04:55] <chalcedony> i appreciate your trying TRAP_1
[04:55] <chalcedony> trav|zzz,
[04:55] <erek> urlin2u: think i can get good performance with unity?
[04:56] <trav|zzz> wind: damn
[04:56] <wind> erek: if it's slow, remember to try "2D" mode which is unity with less effects (I think)
[04:56] <trav|zzz> 2d unity removes the 3d acceleration
[04:56] <trav|zzz> and removes the transparency IIRC
[04:56] <erek> ah
[04:57] <wind> yep, then it's faster if the 3D hardware is slow or drivers bugged
[04:57] <urlin2u> erek, hard to say not knowing your set up, beyond that some like it some don't, there is a gnome 3 opt5ion as well, and many other desktops. I can't really say what is best for you comfortably...to many varibles.
[04:57] <erek> urlin2u: pentium m 1.86GHz, 1GB DDR2
[04:57] <wind> (some pentium M laptops have real nice gfx chips while some have such you don't want 3D with linux)
[04:58] <erek> it's got an intel graphics chip

[05:05] <chachan> Hilikus: that will return you the PID
[05:05] <Hilikus> thank you chachan
[05:05] <TheLegace> Dulan, im just trying to add this one link flag in the file
[05:05] <somsip> chachan: you need to define rules for how/where it is to be chopped. Remove a-zA-z? Keep th first 3 chars? Lose the last char? how?
[05:05] <TheLegace> im just trying to add -lpthread
[05:05] <TheLegace> nvm its resolved
[05:05] <chachan> somsip: I want to strip the last char
[05:06] <somsip> chachan: in bash?
[05:06] <chachan> somsip: bash or awk
[05:06] <somsip> chachan: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/bash-remove-last-character-from-string-line-word/
[05:07] <chachan> somsip: great!
[05:07] <somsip> chachan: as this is not a ubuntu support matter, I would recomend you search for 'bash awk strip last char' as there are loads of results
[05:07] <somsip> chachan: np
[05:11] <hemanth> any tired configuring thunderbird with M$ exchange server ?
[05:11] <hemanth> it works well in evolution, except for the calendar part :/
[05:23] <ranjan> Hi all, any one who knows Apache Zookeeper?
[05:24] <skegeek> I have Adobe Flash set as Firefox default, but it keeps using Gnash...
[05:27] <r3za> hi guys , how can connect to authentication socks5 proxy through 11.10 ? is there any program or command suggestion ? my socks5 proxy server sets to 4000 port ! please help me
[05:30] <court_jester> When I enable acpi apic for run my four cores, my ubuntu freeze randomly. If I turn it off on my bios or put nolapic in kernet init lines, it stop to botter but ubuntu only see one of my four cores after this trick. Has anyone experienced this?
[05:30] <r3za> hi guys , how can connect to authentication socks5 proxy through 11.10 ? is there any program or command suggestion ? my socks5 proxy server sets to 4000 port ! please help me
[05:30] <rumpe1> r3za, maybe "tsocks"
[05:31] <r3za> rumpe1: is that a program ?
[05:31] <rumpe1> r3za, yes, a shell wrapper for network access. You can redirect an application to the proxy.
[05:31] <Sharpshooter> hai !! any body know how to create a image of my curret ubuntu os running on my system.?
[05:31] <r3za> rumpe1: dude , perfect thanks a lot
[05:31] <r3za> rumpe1: let me install it
[05:33] <rumpe1> r3za, I used it some time ago in combination with ssh-tunnel (sshd includes a socks-proxy)
[05:34] <Sharpshooter>  hai !! any body know how to create a image of my curret ubuntu os running on my system.?
[05:35] <rumpe1> Sharpshooter, what do you mean with image? copied folders or an image of the complete filesystem?
[05:36] <Sharpshooter> rumpe1, I want to use my installed os in Virtual machine
[05:36] <rumpe1> Sharpshooter, then you don't need an image. Virtuabox for one can use physical partitions as virtual ones.
[05:36] <r3za> rumpe1: i tried to connect my server through ssh with this command : "ssh -fND localhost:8888 nick@host" but it didn't response !
[05:38] <Sharpshooter> rumpe1,  no I mean that I want to make an  customized live cd for reinstalling with fully installed appilication as like my current os
[05:40] <rumpe1> r3za, -D needs a at least a (local) port (accoring to man ssh)
[05:41] <rumpe1> Sharpshooter, hm... so a "live image" of you running system? on a cd?
[05:41] <rumpe1> Sharpshooter, and how do you plan to install from that?
[05:41] <hemanth> any tired configuring thunderbird with M$ exchange server ?
[05:41] <hemanth> it works well in evolution, except for the calendar part :/
[05:41] <r3za> rumpe1: can u send me a command for my socks5 proxy server that it use port 4000 ?
[05:42] <rumpe1> r3za, in an old script of mine i used that: /usr/bin/ssh -p $hostport -f -N -D 1080 user@host    (for creating a tunnel)
[05:43] <rumpe1> r3za, i guess i then could connect using tsocks on localhost:1080
[05:44] <rumpe1> r3za, erm... not "connect" but redirect the application
[05:44] <r3za> rumpe1: i know , when i use this command i didn't get response ?
[05:46] <raviepic3> people i hate the new look of ubuntu gnome UI - how do i revert back to the old UI but keep the other parts of the OS upgrade intact ?
[05:47] <Sharpshooter>  rumpe1,  no I mean that I want to make an  customized live cd for reinstalling with fully installed appilication as like my current os

[06:28] <RokcStar> that is perfect! thanks so much iceroot
[06:32] <coolstar> I'm about to host an open source repo, and would like some opinions
[06:32] <coolstar> Should I choose svn, git, or mercurial?
[06:33] <coolstar> I never heard of mercurial, but i know about svn and git
[06:33] <coolstar> which is better? SVN or Git?
[06:33] <yamahaalex37> how do i make a shortcut...
[06:33] <yamahaalex37> coolstar, git is newer and everyone will say its better
[06:33] <LifeIsPain> not everyone will say is better
[06:33] <yamahaalex37> i like svn, because i got it working a lot faster and with windows tortoise is super easy
[06:33] <LifeIsPain> but more people will say it is better to be sure
[06:33] <coolstar> the project is linux only
[06:34] <yamahaalex37> and getting my repository on my own shared hosting was way easier
[06:34] <chachan> coolstar: I have used git, svn and mercurial and I feel more comfortable with git
[06:34] <coolstar> yamahallex37: Google Code is hosting it, so the setting up is the same
[06:34] <yamahaalex37> in that case use git
[06:34] <coolstar> i'm using git
[06:35] <LifeIsPain> I'm going to vote for SVN
[06:35] <LifeIsPain> (just because no one else said to use it)
[06:35] <coolstar> should I use GPL 2, GPL 3, or LGPL?
[06:35] <LifeIsPain> that really depends on the case by case issue, and what you want done with it
[06:36] <LifeIsPain> personally, I would do none of the above, but a BSD style license, but that is my preference
[06:41] <nguyenduyhung> cvl
[06:41] <yamahaalex37> ubu needs a show desktop icon
[06:42] <szal> Kubu has one ;)
[06:48] <coolstar> Should I use GPL 2, GPL 3, LGPL, or BSD?
[06:49] <dr_willis> coolstar:  try the #gpl channel?
[06:50] <dr_willis> bbl
[06:50] <coolstar> dr_willis: I'm asking about which licence ubuntu users prefer.
[06:51] <coolstar> dr_willis: I'm about to host an open source project, so i'm asking
[06:51] <yamahaalex37> i is confused
[06:51] <yamahaalex37> to install my .rpm, i just extract it?
[06:51] <yamahaalex37> to user/local/bin?
[06:52] <yamahaalex37> to install my .rpm, i just extract it?
[06:52] <yamahaalex37> to user/local/bin?
[06:52] <dr_willis> !alien
[06:52] <coolstar> yamahaalex: try alien
[06:52] <wind> yamahaalex37: why you want to install rpm package in ubuntu?
[06:53] <yamahaalex37> oh...
[06:53] <yamahaalex37> wait im sorry
[06:53] <yamahaalex37> its a .zip
[06:53] <dr_willis> depends on whats in the .zip
[06:53] <Tm_T> was there some global shortcut to grab a screen capture on default ubuntu install?
[06:53] <yamahaalex37> its aptana
[06:53] <dr_willis> Tm_T:  printscreen key
[06:54] <dr_willis> !info aptana
[06:54] <yamahaalex37> dr_willis,its aptana, extracting it works
[06:54] <yamahaalex37> im just wondering the proper place and way to install
[06:54] <dr_willis> no idea what aptana is. toss it in /opt/ i guess
[06:54] <yamahaalex37> what? i downloaded from their website
[06:54] <Tm_T> dr_willis: ah thanks, have forgotten the existence of that key /:
[06:54] <yamahaalex37> whats /opt
[06:55] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  a directory you install stuff to. thats not  managed by apt
[06:55] <dr_willis> 'optional'
[06:55] <dr_willis> or /usr/local perhaps
[06:55] <yamahaalex37> so /usr/local/bin is not correct?
[06:56] <yamahaalex37> because when I put it in /usr/local/bin, it puts the working directory in /root/Aptana
[06:56] <yamahaalex37> which confuses me
[06:56] <dr_willis> if just extracting the zip and running the binary works. you dont need to 'install' it system wide. you could just keep the dir in your home
[06:56] <yamahaalex37> seems it should be in /home/username/aptana
[06:57] <dr_willis> sounds  like you are running it as root
[06:57] <yamahaalex37> i extracted it as root
[06:57] <yamahaalex37> im logge din as me
[06:58] <michaela> hey!!! how can i fix my mouse pas on my laptop i have ubuntu 11.10 32 bit on my dell inspiron 1545 nd the mouse pad freezes
[06:59] <yamahaalex37> dr_willis, looks like you were right
[06:59] <yamahaalex37> so when I sudo su in terminal, that makes all my GUI activitied also root?
[06:59] <dr_willis> dont use sudo su, use sudo -s as needed  if you need a root shell.
[07:00] <dr_willis> and exit the shell when you are done
[07:00] <yamahaalex37> whats -s
[07:00] <dr_willis> only things started by that shwll would be ran as root.
[07:00] <dEramubu> using compiz on ubuntu 11.10, the right click has become weird. please help
[07:00] <dr_willis>  -s gives you a shell.
[07:00] <dr_willis> or -i
[07:00] <michaela> can anyone see my messages
[07:01] <dr_willis> michaela:  yes

[07:03] <somsip> soraj: ah - I didn't see context. Apologies

[07:04] <soraj> and also playing hd video is ALOT slower than windows.
[07:04] <yamahaalex37> RokcStar,  it seems that way
[07:05] <yamahaalex37> this is a hybrid laptop, with discrete switchable graphics
[07:05] <RokcStar> how can you tell
[07:05] <yamahaalex37> i can tell, ive used it for years
[07:05] <yamahaalex37> its significally shorter
[07:05] <yamahaalex37> maybe the graphics are stuck on discrete?
[07:05] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  hybrid graphics is a area thats also verymuch a work in progress
[07:05] <RokcStar> perhaps the drivers are different
[07:06] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  some would consider you lucky it works at all.
[07:06] <yamahaalex37> i see
[07:06] <dr_willis> hopefully by the next release it will be much better
[07:06] <yamahaalex37> well, if this is on discrete mode, i would consider the batter better than windows in discrete mode
[07:07] <RokcStar> exit
[07:07] <yamahaalex37> its somewhere in between windows discrete and integrated
[07:07] <soraj> actually, its just firefox thats laggy. Chromium is much better.
[07:07] <soraj> sorry, OOC
[07:08] <goddard> anyone have some time to help debug an issue ? http://askubuntu.com/questions/87070/nvidia-gtx-460m-laggy-display/87370#87370
[07:08] <yamahaalex37> how do i unlock the panel on my ubu desktop, on the left
[07:08] <yamahaalex37> to put my own shortcuts
[07:09] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  for unity? just drag/drop therm there. or right click/pin to panel
[07:09] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  got links to good unity guides at http://delicious.com/dr_willis
[07:10] <michaela> i have ubuntu 11.10 installed on my dell inspiron 1545  and the mouse pad freezes how do i fix it

[07:13] <almoxarife> yamahaalex37: which ubu?
[07:15] <nicehs> hi, i just setup apf-firewall then rebooted, and altho it seems to be set to autostart it doesnt.. when I do "update-rc.d apf-firewall defaults" it says "System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/apf-firewall already exist.".   any idea what I can do?  can I simply just edit for example /etc/init.d/rc.local and put "apf -s" in it? ("apf -s" is the start-command for apf)
[07:15] <dr_willis> !info apf
[07:15] <michaela> i know that all of you are volunteers and are trying your best to keep up but i tried to find out how to fix my problem on line but i couldn't find anything
[07:16] <dr_willis> never even heard of apf-firewall
[07:16] <nicehs> !info apf-firewall
[07:16] <dr_willis> michaela:  you checkec askubuntu.com  and the forums?
[07:17] <michaela> yes
[07:17] <goddard> anyone have some time to help debug an issue ? http://askubuntu.com/questions/87070/nvidia-gtx-460m-laggy-display/87370#87370
[07:17] <michaela> i did
[07:17] <nicehs> think it just manages iptables to block ports,icmp and abusive ips etc. and should prevent some DoS'.  it seems to work and all, I just need a way to make it autostart when system boots. can I just put its startup command in top of "/etc/init.d/rc.local" ?
[07:18] <dr_willis> nicehs:  you mean /etc/rc.local ?
[07:19] <yamahaalex37> is unity new with 11?
[07:19] <yamahaalex37> do you guys prefer it
[07:19] <nicehs> oh yeah theres a /etc/rc.local.. i only checked /etc/init.d/rc.local and was alot inthere already, I guess /etc/rc.local is better and should even be perfect for this?
[07:20] <rajumoh> netsplit :-D
[07:20] <dr_willis> nicehs:  thats a ok place to put thangs.
[07:20] <nicehs> yeah thx just tried,putting it in /etc/rc.local seemed to work
[07:20] <dr_willis> i never see the splits. ;)
[07:20] <tresk> Something went wrong. I inserted a new script file in /etc/init.d/ and update-init.d it, but it doesn'twork .(
[07:21] <dr_willis> nicehs:  why not just use ufw?
[07:23] <tresk> I wanted to change the MAC of my net devices. Is it probably the wrong place to do it? I also tried /etc/network/if-pre-up.d and inserted a new script there. No success. or do I have to commit changes in that folder somehow?
[07:24] <arunce> tresk: did you restart the network
[07:24] <arunce> ?
[07:24] <yamahaalex37> is the unity quicklaunch thing on the left side even made for customizing?
[07:25] <tresk> arunce: yes. I reastarted the hole PC ,)
[07:25] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  theres some tweaks and tools for it. omg!ubuntu! blog site mentioned a new one today
[07:26] <dr_willis> called myUnity i think
[07:26] <peggys_mouse> i no longer seem to have access to many settings. is a common recent problem?
[07:26] <arunce> tresk: and you chmod +x?
[07:26] <tresk> mmm, I also changed /etc/interfaces... :(
[07:26] <tresk> arunce: yes, I did it was green in mc
[07:26] <tresk> same chown and chmod like the other scripts
[07:27] <dr_willis> peggys_mouse:  things have been getting reordered.. so it depends on what settings you mean
[07:27] <almoxarife> yamahaalex37: you seem to want the 2d experience/style menus
[07:27] <yamahaalex37> almoxarife, , i just want something customizable
[07:27] <peggys_mouse> dr_willis: it isn't that the settings are missing, they are greyed out. locked.
[07:27] <yamahaalex37> like with my own shortcuts
[07:27] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  shortcuts for what?
[07:27] <yamahaalex37> i deleted all the useless shortcuts in the left tasbar almoxarife
[07:27] <yamahaalex37> programs i use
[07:28] <yamahaalex37> and adding them to that taskbar does not seem trivial
[07:28] <dr_willis> you can make your own launchers, and pin them to the panel
[07:28] <almoxarife> yamahaalex37: in that case, install cairo-dock, install gnome-shell, install various progs from kde4 and figure it out
[07:28] <dr_willis> i just drag/drop or pin them..
[07:28] <peggys_mouse> dr_willis: for instance, if i go to user account settings, the unlock button is now greyed out. i can't edit a user's info.
[07:28] <yamahaalex37> i cant drag anything into that taskbar
[07:28] <arunce> tresk: and your script is ok? you have the shebang?
[07:29] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  sounds like some bug. check out some of the unity ussage videos perhaps.
[07:29] <yamahaalex37> dr_willis, , you can drag stuff into that panel on the far left?
[07:29] <yamahaalex37> the one that hides?
[07:29] <arunce> tresk: will it work if you call it?
[07:29] <yamahaalex37> im trying to drag AptanaStudio3 over there... not working
[07:29] <dr_willis> i launch gedit,  for examlple, and right click, pin the icon to panel
[07:29] <tresk> arunce: #!/bin/sh .... /usr/bin/macchanger -e eth0
[07:29] <yamahaalex37> and when I put it on my desktop, it doesnt seem to be a shortcut
[07:29] <almoxarife> yamahaalex37: no dragging?
[07:30] <tresk> arunce: yes it does
[07:30] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  it may be that ap has no .desktop file
[07:30] <dr_willis> the term shortcut is a little.. well windowish. ;)
[07:30] <tresk> arunce: a bit strange, but maybe Ubuntu resets the MAC later on ?!
[07:30] <dr_willis> make a .desktop launcher file for it. and it should work
[07:30] <yamahaalex37> uhhhh... theres no point in avoiding a term nvm
[07:31] <yamahaalex37> i can drag it to the desktop
[07:31] <dr_willis> since that aptana is not installed by the repos. it may be lacking the .desktop file the panel wants
[07:31] <yamahaalex37> but then it says missing libraries
[07:31] <nicehs> dr_willis: oh, didnt know about ufw.. thx, will check it out and prolly try that next time instead of apf then
[07:31] <yamahaalex37> i dont see any option to pin anywhere either
[07:31] <tresk> arunce: I put it at @S15_ .. should be ok, I guess.
[07:31] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  it wanst to run from its own directory.
[07:31] <arunce> tresk: try on if-up.d
[07:31] <yamahaalex37> dr_willis, where should i see that pin option you said
[07:32] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  try pinning and stuff with gedit to see if it works
[07:32] <tresk> arunce: but I can't change the IP it the device is up ..
[07:32] <tresk> arunce: I mean the MAC
[07:32] <arunce> no you can't
[07:32] <yamahaalex37> i can right click gedits icon while its open, and say keep in launcher
[07:32] <yamahaalex37> but not Aptana
[07:33] <arunce> tresk: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/change-your-network-card-mac-address-on-ubuntu/
[07:33] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  so you needd to make a proper .desktop file for aptana
[07:33] <yamahaalex37> how do i do this
[07:33] <arunce> tresk: but you can change it on interfaces
[07:33] <dr_willis> yamahaalex37:  seen guides on it at askubuntu.com
[07:33] <yamahaalex37> ok
[07:33] <yamahaalex37> and how can i drag one launcher shortcut above another
[07:34] <arunce> tresk: I've one debian and one ubuntu server with that config
[07:34] <dr_willis> not on unity so i cant tell/dont remember
[07:34] <tresk> arunce: I tried this before, but I'll do it again, who knows maybe typo somewehre
[07:35] <r3za> hey , is there anyone know how to fix this bug of 11.10 : http://goo.gl/TZ2D9
[07:36] <dr_willis> bbl
[07:36] <peggys_mouse> anyone? I can't click on the "Unlock" button on the system settings pages. I could a few days ago. there have been a lot of updates recently. i thought one of them might be responsible. also, i changed my user name (via the gui) using the Unlock. perhaps the system no longer thinks i'm the user that has the admin privileges?
[07:36] <bucky> that's not a bug... that's a feature!
[07:36] <tresk> arunce: oh I see something the "auto eth0" was missing...
[07:37] <r3za> bucky: what do u mean , everytime i switch my desktop it appear !
[07:37] <r3za> bucky: when i select to move a program , u were right , but everytime .. no its a bug !
[07:37] <tresk> arunce: but it'll be nice to randomize the process with macchanger eg. ... but first I try this
[07:38] <yamahaalex37> best linux ebook reader?
[07:38] <MahaVishnu> tresk$ what you trying to do exactly ?
[07:39] <namoamitabuddha> Hi, guys
[07:39] <namoamitabuddha> Is laptop-mode-tools needed now?
[07:39] <DaZ> yamahaalex37: as in pdf reader? :f
[07:41] <sokak> hello everyone :)
[07:42] <MahaVishnu> hello sokak ;-)
[07:42] <yamahaalex37> what is apt-get for flash?
[07:42] <MahaVishnu> yamahaalex37$ you know... you could google some of these questions :-)
[07:42] <sokak> question. Can be a good idea to start within a script on startup applications leaking memory, and kill them with a cronjob at regular intervals, using a killall -15?
[07:42] <almoxarife>  Lynda.com.HTML5.Graphics.an ... nvas-QUASAR <-- does it run on ubuntu?
[07:43] <almoxarife> yamahaalex37: or ask linda.com?
[07:43] <shark_eye_> Hello
[07:43] <shark_eye_> I can't install Google Chrome on Ubuntu 11.10 (x64)
[07:43] <yamahaalex37> so i cant...
[07:43] <shark_eye_> How can I solve this problem?
[07:44] <MahaVishnu> shark_eye_$ what error?
[07:44] <shark_eye_> MahaVishnu, Wait please
[07:44] <shark_eye_> I will try 'dpkg'
[07:44] <MahaVishnu> btw the package is chromium-browser on ubuntu
[07:44] <sokak> Am i doing it wrong? killalling with -15 is a bad idea?
[07:45] <yeehaw> Sokak: Why don't you use kill -9 pid
[07:45] <yeehaw> ?
[07:46] <sokak> Im unsure about what put on the minus - i have stuff leaking, and i would like to send just the term signal, not kill them abruptly
[07:47] <peggys_mouse> anyone know why my unlock button, say on the date and time settings, might be greyed out? it wasn't a few days ago.
[07:47] <sokak> yeehaw, one of the guilty is docky, i kill it on cronjob and let it respawn, is launched by a script
[07:48] <sokak> since it may happen multiple instances of what i wanted to kill, i thought of killall
[07:50] <yeehaw> hmm.. wel you could us that. Or you could create a deamon for the program and create a cronjob: /etc/init.d/service stop
[07:50] <sokak> that exceeds my shell fu :|
[07:51] <yeehaw> What kind of program is it?
[07:51] <sokak> shame on me, im using a gui to not mess my crontab u///u
[07:51] <sokak> yeehaw, one of my next candidates is gwibber - seems to love to chew my ram.
[07:52] <yeehaw> Well, I really hate thiking of crons too. So mostly I use a caclulator
[07:52] <sokak> yeehaw, im fine with calculating, its just that seems i cant avoid typos when its time
[07:52] <yeehaw> :P
[07:53] <sokak> i feeel guitarded sometimes :|
[07:53] <yeehaw> what happens if you use services gwibber-daemon stop
[07:53] <sokak> yeehaw, i like were you weregoing, making demons, any tut on it?
[07:54] <yeehaw> or /etc/init.d/gwibber-daemon stop
[07:54] <yeehaw> Google tells me the daemon already existst
[07:54] <sokak> yeah that init.d stuff, any tut for tards outta here?
[07:54] <yeehaw> -s
[07:54] <yeehaw> try  running /etc/init.d/gwibber-daemon -status in shell
[07:55] <sokak> so basically, i can put in crontab a daemon stop like each .10, and a daemon start each .11 right?
[07:55] <yeehaw> or /etc/init.d/unity-gwibber-daemon
[07:55] <sokak> hehe old maverick here :P
[07:55] <yeehaw> What happens if you run /etc/init.d/gwibber-dameon right now?
[07:56] <sokak> says it doesnt exist, i should investigate further.
[07:57] <yeehaw> hmm.
[07:59] <yeehaw> writing your own daemon, would require you to have some programming konowledge
[07:59] <yeehaw> http://www.netzmafia.de/skripten/unix/linux-daemon-howto.html
[07:59] <auronandace> sokak: did you spell it right?
[08:00] <yeehaw> Else go to /etc/init.d
[08:00] <yeehaw> ls -la | grep gwibber
[08:00] <yeehaw> or something
[08:00] <sokak> yeah auronandace , prolly i just need to try a fresher gwibber, maverick bears with an old one. The ppa for docky fixed many thing, i should give a look for gwibber as well.
[08:06] <Jon--> Slightly off topic - When I ssh into a FreeBSD box using PuTTY, I am able to do the following: Hit a character or two, press up arrow, receive only commands beginning with those few characters. Is this a feature of the OS/shell? If not, and it is a feature of PuTTY, how can I get similar functionality in gnome-terminal?
[08:06] <sokak> yay, the ppa version is much snappier
[08:07] <sokak> Jon--, use the almighty tab key
[08:07] <goddard> anyone have some time to help debug an issue ? http://askubuntu.com/questions/87070/nvidia-gtx-460m-laggy-display/87370#87370
[08:08] <Jon--> sokak, That's not quite what I mean. Up arrow deals with history, that is what I want.
[08:08] <Jon--> Ex, python lol.py  do 10 more commands  on PuTTY I can do 'py *up arrow*', and as long as python lol.py is still in history, it'll auto-complete that, last executed first
[08:09] <sokak> oh nope i guess then, i has standard history
[08:09] <Jon--> I don't think it's implemented with history. I have a feeling it's the shell.
[08:09] <Jon--> Well, the client, more accurately*
[08:10] <shark_eye> I was try 'dpkg', and very good
[08:11] <sokak> Jon--, have a look at this http://blog.macromates.com/2008/working-with-history-in-bash/
[08:11] <Jon--> sokak, I run tcsh at work, I highly doubt tcsh is more feature-rich than bash. I have a feeling it's implemented by the shell client, in this case putty.
[08:12] <sokak> i see your point, just all i was able to google about
[08:12] <sokak> when i dont know, i try to find
[08:12] <Jon--> You'd think gnome-terminal would have something like this
[08:12] <Jon--> Ever since getting used to it, it's hard to go back to not having it
[08:12] <Jon--> Hell of a lot faster than h | grep
[08:12] <Jon--> Or pressing up arrow 20 damn times
[08:13] <Jon--> sokak, Thanks for your assistance anyway
[08:13] <sokak> yw, i love to try at least :)
[08:16] <sokak> Jon--, idiotic question - if you try a echo $SHELL in your putty session, what comes out?
[08:16] <shark_eye> Bye
[08:17] <Jon--> sokak, I'm not at work. 90% sure it'd be tcsh
[08:17] <Jon--> Either tcsh or sh
[08:19] <sokak> Then, pardon me if im saying a bestiality Jon-- you should be able to change defaout bash to plain bourne, am i wrong?
[08:19] <Jon--> I'm not following
[08:20] <Jon--> You might be right about it being a feature of the shell. I just find it difficult to believe that that's implemented in tcsh on FreeBSD by default. That would be pretty sweet.
[08:21] <sokak> only god knows :|
[08:23] <doritoDan> Could not download all repository indexes
[08:23] <MahaVishnu> anyone good with bash give me an example of a script that moves folders with a certain file .extension from a dir to a new specified dir ??
[08:24] <doritoDan> Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/unity-2d-team/unity-2d-daily/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz  404  Not Found
[08:24] <doritoDan> Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[08:24] <doritoDan> Any ideas?
[08:24] <sokak> MahaVishnu, tried yet to peep at commandlinefu.com for that?
[08:26] <faLUCE>  hi. DId anyone install mysql in a chroot environment on ubuntu? I have this problem:   http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5056710/running-mysql-in-chroot   and I don't understand how to solve it
[08:31] <MahaVishnu> sokak$ found this.. mv `find .zip ./` .     but its move all files with common extension to current folder. I want to specify the folder
[08:31] <Jon--> doritoDan, You have a PPA which is currently down.
[08:32] <doritoDan> OK.
[08:32] <doritoDan> What can I do about it?
[08:32] <sokak> MahaVishnu, which folder you want to move them to?
[08:32] <Jon--> I'd just wait, it's unity, I'm sure it won't 404 for long
[08:32] <conntrack> Hi
[08:32] <sokak> hi conntrack
[08:32] <doritoDan> Oh.
[08:33] <doritoDan> That sucks. :(
[08:33] <doritoDan> But thanks.
[08:33] <FloodBot1> doritoDan: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:33] <tga> greetings
[08:33] <DaZ> MahaVishnu: you want to do it recursively?
[08:34] <tga> does anybody happen to know about getting the VMware tools fully working on a Ubuntu guest?
[08:34] <tga> with shared folders and all
[08:34] <MahaVishnu> sokak$ like I have a folder. /hd2/Downloads and I will have music files extension .FLAC I want to move them to /hd2/Music when I choose with an easy command/script. while preserving there folders/structure.
[08:34] <MahaVishnu> sokak the .FLAC files will be in folders I mean and I want to keep the folder names just move them to /hd2/Music but only folders with .FLAC files in them sry if this is confusing.
[08:34] <MahaVishnu> DaZ$ see my second statement above for clarity ^
[08:34] <FloodBot1> MahaVishnu: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:35] <sokak> MahaVishnu, thats pretty clear. The answer wil be a mess ;)
[08:35] <arlo> are there a people some can help me with apache problem
[08:36] <Jon--> MahaVishnu, I'll write a one liner for you, hold on
[08:36] <theadmin> arlo: #httpd might be a better place for that
[08:37] <arlo> Cannot send to channel: #httpd theadmin
[08:37] <arlo> i write in this forum
[08:37] <arlo> but i can not
[08:37] <theadmin> arlo: You need to register
[08:37] <arlo> where?
[08:37] <Jon--> MahaVishnu, cd somedir; find . -type f -name \*.FLAC -exec mv {} /hd2/Music \;
[08:37] <arlo> with nickserver but how?
[08:37] <Jon--> Oh wait, you want to move entire directories that have flac files?
[08:38] <arlo> im use freenode.net
[08:38] <Jon--> That's slightly different
[08:38] <ikonia> !register | arlo
[08:38] <Jon--> One sec
[08:38] <MahaVishnu> Jon--$ sweet.
[08:39] <Jon--> MahaVishnu, That won't preserve directories
[08:39] <MahaVishnu> what will it do?
[08:39] <Jon--> It will move all .FLAC files into /hd2/Music
[08:40] <Jon--> Give me a minute, I'm working on what you asked for.
[08:40] <sokak> kudos Jon-- i think i will make use of it as well :)
[08:40] <faLUCE>  hi. DId anyone install mysql in a chroot environment on ubuntu? I have this problem:   http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5056710/running-mysql-in-chroot   and I don't understand how to solve it
[08:41] <Jon--> I'm not sure I can make such a sexy one-liner anymore ;)
[08:41] <MahaVishnu> Jon--$ a script is better for me anyway
[08:41] <MahaVishnu> so I can bash alias it to a single letter command.
[08:41] <Jon--> It shouldn't be too hard though. Just need a pipe or two.
[08:42] <Jon--> MahaVishnu, You can place this in a script bro...
[08:43] <Jon--> If you plan on executing this multiple times, I suggest rsync instead, though since it's a mv and not a cp, it's not that important
[08:43] <ensi> hi
[08:43] <happygolucky> ensi: hello
[08:43] <ensi> i've installed openjdk-6-jdk but i have no javac or other java tools
[08:43] <theadmin> Jon--: rsync has a --remove-synced-files (or something) flag so you can make it act like mv
[08:44] <ensi> update-alternatives --config java says "no config"
[08:44] <Jon--> I can write this, I'm feeling lazy though.
[08:44] <ensi> whats the trick?
[08:44] <MahaVishnu> Yeah I forgot you don't need to change it.
[08:44] <MahaVishnu> I don't script too much.
[08:44] <Jon--> It doesn't require a ton of man-page hunting
[08:44] <theadmin> Jon--: What's the goal anyway? I might do it
[08:44] <sokak> I feel you :) Whenever i have a bullseye oneliner, i note it down as a personal pride
[08:45] <sokak> my script fu is really low
[08:45] <MahaVishnu> theadmin$ move all folders in one dir with .FLAC files in them onky. to a second dir
[08:45] <DaZ> MahaVishnu: you have the script already?
[08:45] <Jon--> theadmin, He wants to find all sub dirs containing *.flac and move those directories recursively into some other directory
[08:45] <theadmin> Jon--: Hm, interesting...
[08:45] <DaZ> find -name "*.c" -exec mkdir -p /home/daz/derp/{} \; -exec mv {} /home/daz/derp/{} \; this did more or less what you want for me
[08:45] <DaZ> just obviously replace .d with .flac and directories with what you want.
[08:46] <Jon--> DaZ, that's ugly
[08:46] <Jon--> I'm making one now, hold on
[08:46] <MahaVishnu> DaZ$ my dirs already exist ?
[08:46] <DaZ> hurdur
[08:46] <DaZ> but it works [;
[08:46] <sokak> lol
[08:46]  * theadmin tries to refresh on her Perl skills because it seems to complicated to do with Bash...
[08:46] <happygolucky> ensi: i'm not a developer, did you try in programming or java groups--if there are any on freenode..
[08:46] <sokak> yeah, bash can be a biash
[08:47] <MahaVishnu> I feel like it would be very ez to do with bash wouldn't it ?
[08:47] <ensi> happygolucky: seems to more like an environment thingy
[08:48] <Madkiss> hi there. I'm looking for the swift-auth-add-user binary in oneiric; can somebody please tell me where it hides?
[08:49] <theadmin> !find swift-auth-add-user
[08:49] <theadmin> Madkiss: ^
[08:49] <Jon--> Can you pipe to rsync?
[08:49] <Jon--> I'm nearly done
[08:50] <theadmin> Jon--: If it can read stdin in some way, sure...
[08:51] <Jon--> theadmin, Example? I have a list of directories with flac files, want to pass to rsync via a pipe
[08:51] <sokak> mv cant do the job?
[08:52] <theadmin> Jon--: Meh, no rsync fan myself and I can't find anything related in the manpage
[08:53] <Arnold> Madkiss, I'm guessing it would be located either in the 'swiss' or 'swiss-account' package.
[08:54] <Jon--> MahaVishnu, Here's a start anyway: find . -type f -name '*.flac' |sed 's#\(.*\)/.*#\1#' | sort -ur
[08:54] <Jon--> That gives you a list of directories recursively from the current directory which contain .flac files.
[08:54] <Jon--> (and sorts them)
[08:54] <MahaVishnu> yes it does.
[08:55] <MahaVishnu> is it easy to alphabetize that. if not don't worry. and thanks for that code! ill keep it in a safe place.
[08:56] <theadmin> Woah... That looks messy xD
[08:56] <goddard> anyone have some time to help debug an issue ? http://askubuntu.com/questions/87070/nvidia-gtx-460m-laggy-display/87370#87370
[08:56] <sokak> snippet sniped :3
[08:56] <MahaVishnu> lol sokak
[08:56] <MahaVishnu> ;-)
[08:57] <MahaVishnu> yea that code looks like space alien to me.
[08:57] <sokak> if its bash code, its my treasssure
[08:57] <Jon--> MahaVishnu, It's just sniping out the directory from the output of find
[08:57] <Klopeco> morning,it is possible to block network manager notification (the gconf key "don't send notif when disconnected" don't work)
[08:58] <Jon--> and placing them on new lines, of course
[08:58] <sokak> Jon--, one thing i never was able to was the abstract - once i have the snippet, i can "see".
[08:58] <Madkiss> Arnold: they're both installed, and it's not there :(
[08:58] <Linuxnut> I'm working on project to help get rid of spammers and bots if you would like to help, visit my page here http://hak-lab.co.nr/
[08:58] <theadmin> Linuxnut: Um, that's spam ;)
[08:58] <llutz_> Linuxnut: now lets get rid of you
[08:58] <sokak> my pipes gets all twisted :/
[08:58] <tresk> arunce: !'m back and now it's working. The solution was simply add a new script in /etc/network/if-pre-up.d ... strange I thought I had it before.
[08:59] <ikonia> Linuxnut: you've been told the topic of this channel enough times, no more warnings
[08:59] <theadmin> ikonia: Oh, (s)he did that before? Didn't know.
[08:59] <Klopeco> how to associate a proxy config with a wifi network?
[09:00] <iceroot> Klopeco: as you do on a non-wifi-network
[09:00] <sokak> oh Gods of the script fu! x3 Anyone knowing how i can properly add a nautilus menu that triggers a selection of emblems to pick from *only for certain filetypes*? (or a tut that is understandable?)
[09:01] <Klopeco> iceroot: I have multiple SSID with multiple proxy config
[09:02] <Arnold> Madkiss, uh oh. That file was pretty much stored in swift-auth package, in the earlier versions of Ubuntu, like 11.10 (when it was Swift 1.0.2
[09:02] <Arnold> 10.10*
[09:03] <Arnold> From 11.04 and 11.10, the entire packages were updated to 1.3.0, and because of that (perhaps), the swift-auth package is to be found nowhere.
[09:03] <Jon--> what did I miss? damn wireless is spotty in my room
[09:04] <iceroot> Klopeco: maybe dhcp can handle something like that? i dont know
[09:04] <goddard> anyone tried out 0 A.D ?
[09:04] <goddard> sweet linux game
[09:05] <goddard> reminds me of Age of Empires
[09:05] <Madkiss> Arnold: well, nevertheless, that command is somewhat, uhm, important ;)
[09:05] <iceroot> goddard: sounds good, i will have a look at it
[09:05] <Madkiss> it's not the actual package, it's rather binary
[09:05] <goddard> iceroot: yeah its alpha but is gonna be good
[09:05] <MahaVishnu> Jon--$ any ideas on a way to pipe that list of dirs to a move command?
[09:06] <Jon--> MahaVishnu, This should work: find . -type f -name '*.flac' -print0 | xargs -0 -I {} mv {} /hd2/Music
[09:06] <Jon--> Whoa
[09:06] <Jon--> MahaVishnu, This should work: find . -type f -name '*.flac' -print0 | xargs -0 -I {} mv {} /hd2/Music/
[09:06] <sokak> sniped :3
[09:06] <Jon--> Note that not all OSes support {} notation with xargs
[09:06] <MahaVishnu> does ubuntu ?
[09:07] <Jon--> (More accurately - not all versions of xargs support it)
[09:07] <Jon--> Yes
[09:07] <MahaVishnu> ok thats all I need let me test it out for you.
[09:07] <Jon--> Do me a favour and read some man pages
[09:07] <MahaVishnu> I do read man pages :D
[09:07] <Jon--> Understand what that command does
[09:07] <Jon--> Before you use it
[09:07] <MahaVishnu> I was reading about find
[09:07] <MahaVishnu> but all I could get it to do was list all the .FLAC files in a dir
[09:07] <MahaVishnu> not the dirs containing flac :-\
[09:08] <Jon--> Oh shoot
[09:08] <Jon--> I think I fucked up.
[09:08] <Jon--> Did you run that?
[09:08] <MahaVishnu> not yet
[09:08] <Jon--> Good.
[09:08] <MahaVishnu> lmao...
[09:08] <Jon--> Test it out by making a random directory
[09:08] <Jon--> like ~/test
[09:08] <MahaVishnu> good idea
[09:08] <frogzoo> grrr upgrade to 11.10 stopped ZTE MF6273 3G usb modem from working - again - this is getting real old
[09:09] <Jon--> cd ~/test mkdir x y z touch somefile.flac in each, etc.
[09:09] <Arnold> Madkiss, maybe it has been replaced with a newer command?
[09:09] <MahaVishnu> I have a /home/user/test for just these purposes
[09:11] <MahaVishnu> test like this? find . -type f -name '*.flac' -print0 | xargs -0 -I {} mv {} /home/x/test/blah/
[09:11] <arlo> Anyone can help me with apache problem
[09:11] <Jon--> No
[09:11] <arlo> is take 1 minute with teamwiewer
[09:11] <Jon--> Test by making sure that a recursive call to find won't hit any legitimate flac files on your drive
[09:11] <ikonia> arlo: is this apache problem on ubuntu ?
[09:11] <Jon--> But only testing ones
[09:11] <arlo> Yes
[09:11] <frogzoo> teamweiner?
[09:12] <ikonia> arlo: what's the issue
[09:12] <Jon--> I know it doesn't work, it moves the files, doesn't move the dirs
[09:12] <arlo> teameiwerteamwiewer
[09:12] <arlo> teamwiewer
[09:12] <ikonia> arlo: no, what's the apache problem ?
[09:13] <Jon--> I don't know enough awk/sed to fix it
[09:13] <arlo> Ikonia i restart aoache
[09:13] <arlo> apache
[09:13] <Arnold> Madkiss, seems it has to do more with the Swift software itself, than Ubuntu's packaging. Since 11.10 has version 1.4.4, and only the pre 1.3.0 one had swift-auth with swift-auth-add-user in it
[09:13] <arlo> but my domain not working
[09:13] <arlo> i create subdomain
[09:13] <arlo> ikona.mydomain.dk

[09:13] <arlo> but is dont working i dont why
[09:13] <ikonia> arlo: please give me the correct/real domain name you are setting up

[09:13] <arlo> ok
[09:13] <arlo> 2 sek
[09:13] <sokak> VictorCL, gui or shell?
[09:14] <VictorCL> gui
[09:14] <VictorCL> no no shell
[09:14] <sokak> open in file roller - drag files to destination
[09:14] <sokak> lol
[09:14] <VictorCL> with the shell .trhough command line
[09:15] <Jon--> Here's the command that almost works
[09:15] <Jon--> find . -type f -name '*.pdf' | sed 's#\(.*\)/.*#\1#' | xargs -0 -I {} mv {} ./test3/
[09:15] <somsip> VictorCL: try unzip -j, but check it in man first http://superuser.com/questions/71846/tar-extract-discarding-directory-structure
[09:15] <Jon--> Problem is, xargs borks at the output of sed.
[09:15] <arlo> ikonia og have send you with query
[09:15] <Madkiss> Arnold: hmkay
[09:16] <ikonia> arlo: I'm just going to check that domain
[09:16] <Jon--> MahaVishnu, Get someone else to look at it, you have a good start.
[09:16] <Jon--> I need sleep.
[09:16] <arlo> o
[09:16] <arlo> k
[09:16] <sokak> VictorCL, should be something like unzip file.zip -d destfolder
[09:17] <Linuxnut> How do i use tor on freenode using "UBUNTU"
[09:17] <sokak> acr!
[09:17] <somsip> sokak: unzip -j should do it fine
[09:17] <llutz_> Linuxnut: #freenode to ask
[09:17] <sokak> yeah, im still chewing on -j
[09:17] <llutz_> Linuxnut: they have howtos for a lot of clients
[09:17] <ikonia> arlo: the dns for your domain is pointing at a server in a datacenter, not your PC
[09:18] <arlo> yes is my home server
[09:18] <arlo>  i have ssh acces to this ?
[09:18] <arlo> acces
[09:18] <Linuxnut> Can you even use tor on ubuntu ?
[09:18] <ikonia> Linuxnut: yes
[09:18] <llutz_> !tor | Linuxnut
[09:19] <Madkiss> Arnold: thanks for the help, the "swauth" binary from Precise is what I am looking for :)
[09:19] <Linuxnut> Sweet thanks ikonia your a tuff nutt but i like you
[09:19] <arlo> ikonia is my home server
[09:19] <ikonia> arlo: you're the IP it's pointing at appears to be a holding server, not your server
[09:20] <Arnold> Madkiss, hehe, who would've thought that it was cleverly in disguise in another binary name? :P
[09:20] <arlo> ikonia i have write you to you in query
[09:21] <Linuxnut> Hey ikonia not to be off topic but do you host  alesi.projecthugo.co.uk
[09:21] <Madkiss> Arnold: some people seem to take joy from randomly renaming binaries ;)
[09:22] <ikonia> arlo: can you please stop sending me queries and talk in channel please.
[09:22] <arlo> ok fine
[09:22] <arlo> its about my domain
[09:22] <Arnold> Madkiss, I guess as long as it won't break anything important, they can rename it as easily as they see fit. And I know how bad that can be!! :P
[09:22] <arlo> seo working in this chat
[09:22] <arlo> hehe
[09:22] <ikonia> arlo: the config you have pasted me has a conflict in it too
[09:23] <arlo> no is same config with another subdomain
[09:23] <ikonia> arlo: you can't have sub1.domain.com, sub2.domain2.com sub3.domain.com as seperate domains, then have *.domain.com for domain 5
[09:23] <ikonia> arlo: that conflict *.domain.com will match for sub1/sub2/sub3
[09:23] <Linuxnut> Hey ikonia not to be off topic but do you host  alesi.projecthugo.co.uk
[09:24] <arlo> arh ikonia thats right
[09:24] <arlo> but how can i fix it
[09:25] <ikonia> arlo: you need to get rid of the *.domain.com in the serveralias section
[09:26] <arlo>  i have delete this line *.domain.com  and restart
[09:26] <arlo> but is dont working
[09:28] <MahaVishnu> find . -type f -name '*.flac' |sed 's#\(.*\)/.*#\1#' | sort -ur    anyone know how to pipe that list of dirs to a command to move them all recursively to be subdirs of a new dir.
[09:28] <ruslan_osmanov> hi.  how do I instruct dpkg/apt to install latest available version of imagemagick? I tried to set Priority: 1001 for the package in /etc/apt/preferences . But no effect
[09:29] <llutz_> ruslan_osmanov: it should do that by default
[09:29] <k_sze> I'm trying to `fsck -cpv` my 2TB HDD. It's been running for quite a long time. How can I be sure that it's not stuck due to some unrecoverable hardware or file system error?
[09:30] <arlo> ikonia i have delete this line and restart
[09:30] <arlo> but is dont working
[09:30] <MonkeyDust> ruslan_osmanov  update first, before you upgrade, so you have the latest version
[09:30] <ruslan_osmanov> llutz, I thought the default priority is 100
[09:30] <bc81> hello.  i have a folder that is stuck in the trash, it will not go away even after rebooting.  i have tried some terminal commands to remove ~/.local/share/Trash files, but the stuck folder is not at that location.  i have also tried emptying the trash as root with no success.  any ideas here?
[09:31] <mutes> hi im trying to install ubuntu but its not slackware. how do i fix this?
[09:31] <llutz_> ruslan_osmanov: default is to install any newer version, if available
[09:31] <ruslan_osmanov> MonkeyDust, I made apt-get update && apt-get install imagemagick
[09:31] <k_sze> erm, s/fsck/e2fsck
[09:31] <MonkeyDust> ruslan_osmanov  then you should have the latest version
[09:31] <llutz_> ruslan_osmanov: check apt-cache policy imagemagick
[09:32] <sokak> k_sze, try iotop, you can see if something is moving or just spins empty
[09:32] <bc81> i'm thinking maybe it's bad block of the HDD or so, i may have to fsck?
[09:32] <ikonia> arlo: please pastebin your current config
[09:33] <RaTTuS> k_sze - tail -f /var/log/syslog - but -c may be taking the time
[09:33] <ruslan_osmanov> llutz, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/769843/ . But I want 6.6.2-7
[09:33] <sokak> k_sze, just so you know, the first round of badblock took about 12 hours to me for a 2 gb drive over sata
[09:33] <RaTTuS> k_sze - as long as the HD light is running then your fine [fingers x'ed]
[09:33] <arlo> http://pastebin.com/2WDsBcpW
[09:33] <arlo> ikona http://pastebin.com/2WDsBcpW
[09:33] <llutz_> ruslan_osmanov: then you have to find a repo holding that version
[09:34] <llutz_> ruslan_osmanov: thats nothing apt-pinning can do for you
[09:35] <ruslan_osmanov> llutz, thank you. I'm actually not on *Ubuntu. That should be the case. (Debian)
[09:35] <llutz_> !info imagemagick
[09:35] <llutz_> ruslan_osmanov: same version in ubuntu
[09:35] <somsip> arlo: so that;s a blog in a scandanavian language?
[09:36] <bc81> be back, i'm going to try fsck..
[09:36] <ikonia> arlo: you said you had got rid of 6.ServerAlias *.scrape.mecci.dk
[09:36] <ikonia> arlo: 6.ServerAlias *.scrape.mecci.dk
[09:36] <arlo> yes but i insert again
[09:36] <ikonia> arlo: I told you that won't work
[09:37] <ikonia> arlo: you have conflicting domains
[09:37] <arlo> yes
[09:37] <arlo> i so i delete server alias?
[09:37] <ikonia> arlo: at this time - yes
[09:37] <arlo> 2 sek i try

[09:41] <arlo> its my page
[09:41] <arlo> and i try to create subdomain on this
[09:41] <ikonia> arlo: for what domain
[09:41] <bc81> back.  fsck did not help and the folder is still stuck in the trash.  "Failed to delete the item from the trash"  any ideas?

[09:42] <Bioshox> Hey guys
[09:42] <ikonia> arlo: your domucment roots are the same
[09:42] <frank604> Hi
[09:42] <ikonia> arlo: that's why the sites look the same
[09:42] <arlo> hmm
[09:42] <arlo>  but why is working on another subdomains`+
[09:42] <arlo> ?
[09:42] <ikonia> arlo: because they don't use the same domain and the same document root
[09:42] <faLUCE>  hi. DId anyone install mysql in a chroot environment on ubuntu? I have this problem:   http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5056710/running-mysql-in-chroot   and I don't understand how to solve it
[09:43] <arlo> demo.mecci.dk is a same domain ?
[09:43] <arlo> ikona : demo.mecci.dk is a same domain
[09:44] <sokak> kudos everyone for the great help, leaving for now ^^
[09:44] <dimcamkd> #stip
[09:44] <ikonia> arlo: no, you where using scrape.mecci.dk with a document root of /var/www/scrape - your subdomains where also using /var/www/scrape
[09:45] <Kejk_PL> Hej, when I transfer big files (~1.3 GB) to my flash drive (quite slow one) after minute or two system lock up for 20 to 60 seconds. This is repeatable. I haven't tried mounting with "sync" option. I heard that  there was a problem with scheduler, but  I can't remember if it was fixed. Can you help?
[09:45] <Bioshox> any of you guys interested in helping out with a Linux community I'm building??
[09:45] <Bioshox> We are a brand new community driven site thats going to help make Linux a real alternative. Linux is a beautiful, reliable and free Operating System built perfectly for your Desktop, Laptop or Netbook.
[09:45] <ikonia> Bioshox: please don't recruit in here
[09:45] <Bioshox> Sorry!
[09:45] <Bioshox> :')
[09:46] <fbh> and besides, Linux is already a real alternative.
[09:46] <arlo> ikonia so what is full code?
[09:46] <ikonia> arlo: what do you mean what is the full code ?
[09:46] <Bioshox> Yeah, but I'm working on something that shows that to people
[09:46] <arlo> how can i fix it
[09:47] <ikonia> arlo: you need to point your subdomain at a different document root
[09:47] <fbh> Bioshox: ubuntu.com does that already. quite nicely, actually.
[09:47] <arlo> 2 sek i try
[09:47] <bc81> ok, well i have discovered the solution to my stuck folder in the trash problem.. the offending folder was deleted from a network share, and after i ran umount -a, the trash was gone :-)
[09:47] <Bioshox> My sites not just for Ubuntu, it's for many distros and open source applications
[09:47] <Bioshox> A way to evaluate and compare to people who don't currently use Linux which OS might be for them
[09:47] <ikonia> ok guys - lets drop the talk on the site please, it's nothing to do with ubuntu
[09:48] <fbh> And why would #ubuntu care about that? :)
[09:48] <ikonia> Bioshox: distrowatch.com
[09:48] <fbh> exactly my point.
[09:48] <Bioshox> still not the aim of the site
[09:48] <ikonia> Bioshox: good luck with it
[09:49] <nardev> is there anyone to explain me difference output of lsof -i:80 | wc and ps aux | grep apache | wc, what is more relevant for number of visitors?
[09:49] <ikonia> nardev: neither really
[09:49] <ikonia> nardev: the apache log is the guy there
[09:50] <nardev> ikonia, i often get different numbers there, what is wrong?
[09:51] <ikonia> nardev: different numbers ?
[09:51] <nardev> ikonia, as you see i wc output
[09:52] <arlo> ikonia is not working
[09:52] <ikonia> nardev: as I said they have nothing to do with visitors
[09:52] <ikonia> arlo: please show me the config
[09:52] <nardev> ikonia, ok, than connections
[09:52] <ikonia> nardev: 1 connection does not = 1 visitor
[09:52] <nardev> ikonia, i understand that
[09:52] <ikonia> nardev: there is some good docs on the apache website on how to manage logs to get stats, tools like awstats may also help you
[09:53] <nardev> ikonia, would you be kind to find it for me or to give me some reference how to find it, i would be very grateful
[09:53] <arlo> config where?
[09:53] <nardev> since you already know
[09:54] <ikonia> nardev: find what ?
[09:54] <nardev> arlo, use some paste dump web service
[09:54] <ikonia> arlo: use a pastebin
[09:54] <ikonia> arlo: as you have done before
[09:54] <nardev> ikonia, article that you mentioned
[09:54] <ikonia> nardev: I don't have it to hand, look on apache.org - and search google for awstats site, both useful
[09:56] <arlo> ikonia : http://pastebin.com/dq6jNeEu
[09:57] <ikonia> arlo: do you have any other domains with *.mecci.dk
[09:57] <ikonia> arlo: in their config
[09:58] <lasse_> can anyone help me figure out how this is possible (http://pastebin.com/Y1rLFvvk) when using mysql_real_escape_string ?
[09:58] <arlo> hmm
[09:58] <arlo> ikonia subdomain yes
[09:58] <ikonia> lasse_: try #mysql or ##php
[09:59] <ikonia> arlo: make sure that *.mecci.dk is not in any of your other domains
[09:59] <ikonia> arlo: something is causing scrape.mecci.dk to be directed to a site before it hits your config
[10:00] <ikonia> arlo: totally remove the scrape.mecci.dk config, and restart apache, what happens ? where does the site go ?
[10:01] <lasse_> iknonia wouldn't it be enough with just a2dissite and then reload? restart is a bit overkill :)
[10:02] <arlo> ikonia is going to same root page

[10:03] <doritoDan> What the heck :/
[10:04] <doritoDan> It's still down.
[10:04] <doritoDan> I thought Ubuntu was supposed to be better than Windows. ;)
[10:05] <jpds> doritoDan: It's not down; packages migth not exist for Lucid.
[10:06] <jpds> doritoDan: And yes; they don't: https://launchpad.net/~unity-2d-team/+archive/unity-2d-daily
[10:10] <MonkeyDust> doritoDan  you're looking for something that doesnt seem to exist
[10:11] <doritoDan> jpds and MonkeyDust: Then why is Ubuntu trying to fetch it through the update manager :/
[10:11] <MonkeyDust> doritoDan  maybe it sees something, but does not know what to do with it
[10:11] <doritoDan> How can I get past this problem?
[10:11] <doritoDan> :(
[10:13] <ikonia> arlo: ok, that means another site config is conflicting
[10:13] <MonkeyDust> doritoDan  i guess you already found this page http://digitizor.com/2010/05/10/how-to-install-unity-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx/
[10:13] <doritoDan> MonkeyDust: Nah
[10:14] <doritoDan> how does it relate to my problem?
[10:14] <ikonia> arlo: you need to find out what site is conflicting, then resolve that config
[10:14] <MonkeyDust> doritoDan  i see 'lucid' in the path you pasted and you want unity, or am i misunderstanding
[10:15] <doritoDan> I don't know man. All I'm trying to do is upgrade Ubuntu from 10.04 to 11
[10:15] <doritoDan> and I started with the update manager
[10:15] <doritoDan> it fetched my updates, prompted me to reboot
[10:15] <doritoDan> and now it can't find some path
[10:16] <ikonia-fanboy> Nope
[10:17] <ikonia> ?
[10:18] <ikonia-fanboy> I dont need any thing thanks im just watching the chat to see if i can help anybody
[10:18] <Myrtti> ikonia-fanboy: could you change your nickname to something that doesn't include someone elses nickname
[10:19] <ikonia-fanboy> Ok sorry im just a fan
[10:20] <Myrtti> thank you
[10:22] <Net-Cat> How would i go about converting Ubuntu into a ids what are some good tools
[10:22] <ikonia> Net-Cat: snort/tripwire are sane choices
[10:22] <Net-Cat> brb away from keybord
[10:24] <iceroot> Net-Cat: what is an "ids"?
[10:24] <doritoDan> Ok
[10:24] <doritoDan> This Ubuntu installation is just messed up
[10:24] <doritoDan> the update manager doesn't work at all.
[10:24] <RaTTuS> doritoDan - 1) make a backup of all your data , 2) get the 11.04 cd , 3) do a new install , 4) replace your data - it saves a lot of hassles...
[10:25] <doritoDan> I'm so SICK of Ubuntu right now. Every time I try to do something really simple I end up spending hours troubleshooting what should inherently work fine!
[10:25] <deej1976> iceroot, Intruder detection system
[10:25] <iceroot> deej1976: never heard of something like that
[10:25] <iceroot> deej1976: but thank you
[10:25] <RaTTuS> doritoDan it does work , however you dont have to upgrade all the time
[10:25] <deej1976> iceroot, Have a look at snort and tripwire if interested
[10:25] <iceroot> deej1976: i will
[10:25] <doritoDan> If I want to upgrade, and there is an upgrade, I should be able to upgrade.
[10:26] <doritoDan> Instead, the function breaks.
[10:26] <doritoDan> This is bad.
[10:26] <doritoDan> But whatever.
[10:26] <iceroot> deej1976: never touch a running system
[10:26] <doritoDan> Thanks for attempting to help pals.
[10:26] <FloodBot1> doritoDan: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:26] <doritoDan> Much appreciated still.
[10:26] <iceroot> deej1976: wrong nick
[10:26] <RaTTuS> doritoDan - then make a bug report it may help others
[10:26] <iceroot> doritoDan: why you need the upgrade?
[10:27] <Net-Cat> I still netcat
[10:27] <doritoDan> iceroot: Because I want to try 11. How can you even justify Ubuntu not working properly by questioning why I want to upgrade? I should do the same thing whenever someone complains that Microsoft is too greedy. "Why do you need your money anyway??"
[10:27] <MonkeyDust> doritoDan  a fresh install is often faster and more efficient than an upgrade
[10:27] <iceroot> doritoDan: i am asking becauser of the most important thing "never touch a running system"
[10:27] <doritoDan> iceroot: I want to try Unity.
[10:27] <doritoDan> And keep up to date with the OS.
[10:27] <RaTTuS> if it's not broke dont fix it - is one I use a lot
[10:27] <iceroot> doritoDan: 10.x has unity too
[10:27] <doritoDan> Because it interests me.
[10:28] <deej1976> doritoDan: Try a liveCD
[10:28] <RaTTuS> use multiple boots until your happy ....
[10:28] <metro-2012> ÃŊÃ°ÃĻÃĒÃĨÃē ÃĒÃąÃĨÃŽ
[10:28]  * RaTTuS goes for coffee
[10:28] <doritoDan> I don't want to boot a live CD. I want the latest system on my computer.
[10:28] <iceroot> doritoDan: can you write down your issue in one line with usefull erorr-messages please
[10:28] <doritoDan> But nevermind all this, I'm skipping Ubuntu altogether.
[10:29] <htmlinprogress> Dorito,  what are you wanting? and why such the fuss?
[10:29] <doritoDan> iceroot: Sure. I tried to upgrade, and it says "Could not download all repository indexes.

[10:30] <doritoDan> Or update rather.
[10:30] <ikonia> the instructions say remove all external and 3rd party PPA's/repos
[10:30] <MonkeyDust> doritoDan  don't, rather fresh install it
[10:30] <Myrtti> doritoDan: it's always recommended that you disable PPA's before upgrading

[10:30] <iceroot> doritoDan: paa are not supportedf
[10:30] <htmlinprogress> Dorito,  ok  what whats the hold up?
[10:30] <doritoDan> Yes, I already tried to uncheck the PPA.
[10:31] <doritoDan> But it still won't give me any of the standard packages.
[10:31] <doritoDan> Including an Ubuntu 11 upgrade.
[10:31] <Gentoo64> doritoDan, try changing mirrors?
[10:31] <doritoDan> how
[10:31] <Gentoo64> or does it cycle through them?
[10:31] <Gentoo64> :s
[10:31] <iceroot> doritoDan: output of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list"
[10:31] <iceroot> !paste | doritoDan
[10:32] <iceroot> doritoDan: if you use unsupported repos its not the fault of ubuntu when you get problems
[10:32] <doritoDan> iceroot: I don't even know what "[using] unsupported repos" means.
[10:32] <Gentoo64> ppas
[10:32] <doritoDan> I'm a vanilla user in its strictest term.
[10:32] <iceroot> !ppa | doritoDan
[10:32] <doritoDan> Ok yeah I know what it means now, but I don't dabble with that kind of stuff.
[10:32] <doritoDan> I'm a vanilla user.
[10:32] <iceroot> doritoDan: are ppa is a (repo)sitory
[10:33] <iceroot> doritoDan: if you are a "vanilla-user" you should not enable ppas/repos
[10:33] <htmlinprogress> Dorito,  did you check the net and research the forms for an anwser or at least try to have a lead on this os? becuase last time i checked it a do-ur-self os
[10:33] <iceroot> doritoDan: but please post the output of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list"
[10:33] <urlin2u> doritoDan, do you have in  software sources 3rd tab=updates normal releases set?
[10:33] <doritoDan> iceroot: I don't recall enabling ppas/repos, however that is done.
[10:33] <doritoDan> Also one sec.
[10:33] <htmlinprogress> Dorito, it all kind heartediness  i say this ,,,
[10:33] <iceroot> doritoDan: also please "cat /etc/issue"
[10:34] <MahaVishnu> find . -type f -name '*.flac' |sed 's#\(.*\)/.*#\1#' | sort -ur | while read line; do mv -v $line /home/x/test/blah; done     why does this work for everything except the last folder, it strips the .flac out and moves that without the last folder.
[10:34] <MonkeyDust> doritoDan  you have installed a ppa that is not recognized by the system
[10:35] <doritoDan> iceroot: http://paste.ubuntu.com/769901/
[10:36] <doritoDan> I don't recall that MonkeyDust. :I
[10:36] <doritoDan> htmlinprogress: No I did not check the net. I'm just wondering why I can't upgrade. Apparently some kind of weird repo is in my system?
[10:36] <doritoDan> Idk.
[10:37] <iceroot> doritoDan: also please the output of "sudo apt-get update"
[10:37] <htmlinprogress> Dorito, MonkeyDust  is it possible that the ppa server that checks and get the packets is offilne and or broke down?
[10:37] <Gentoo64> isnt changing the mirror in the update manager worth a try?
[10:37] <MonkeyDust> htmlinprogress  next in my mind: the ppa simply is no longer maintained by whoever made it
[10:38] <htmlinprogress> doritoDan,  so what are you specs ? hardware,os  u have
[10:38] <DrMrHorse> what about in your /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ ?

[10:43] <najche> i want to play CounterStrike on ubuntu in school
[10:43] <najche> in LAN

[10:45] <jigsaw> wth
[10:46] <Gentoo64> rootmark, so you have wine installed, what happens when you try to install CS?
[10:46] <rootmark> Gentoo, we installed CS, but his computer doesn't open Wine.
[10:46] <Gentoo64> so wine isnt on that computer?
[10:46] <najche> rootmark plys cs i cant open the WINE!
[10:46] <rootmark> And CS is installed too
[10:46] <hemanth> trying to send a event ( calendar ) from evolution to outlook users, there is a format mismatch. Any suggestions ?
[10:46] <najche> it is but it doesnt want to open..
[10:46] <LjL> rootmark, please hit Tab after "Gentoo" or "Gen", so the full name Gentoo64 will be completed automatically and he'll be highlighted, so the conversation is easier to follow
[10:47] <shaibn> Hello :) How can I figure out which package will install /sbin/start and /sbin/stop ?
[10:47] <Gentoo64> najche, i havent used wine in a long time tbh. try wine then the path to the cs exe
[10:47] <Gentoo64> in terminal
[10:47] <LjL> shabble: dpkg -S /sbin/start
[10:47] <gabriel_> hi
[10:47] <Gentoo64> imo wine is dodgy
[10:47] <doritoDan> htmlinprogress: I'm just saying that your question is irrelevant, but if you must know I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 vanilla on a virtualized machine from within VMware Fusion 4 which in turn is running on OSX Lion 10.7.2 with a 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7 and 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR 3.
[10:48] <LjL> shabble: that's if start and stop are already installed. if they aren't, go to http://packages.ubuntu.com/ to see
[10:48] <rootmark> gentoo, it doesn't open wine
[10:48] <gabriel_> helllo
[10:48] <Gentoo64> rootmark, do you have anything else installed on that machine?
[10:48] <Gentoo64> in wine?
[10:48] <rootmark> no :D
[10:48] <rootmark> ok something
[10:48] <rootmark> like
[10:49] <Gentoo64> try deleting .wine in /home
[10:49] <rootmark> shockwave
[10:49] <Gentoo64> and reinstalling cs
[10:49] <shaibn> LjL, thank you
[10:49] <rootmark> ok i will, ;)
[10:49] <Gentoo64> just do it that way you did it on the machien that works
[10:49] <Gentoo64> cant help much more

[10:51] <kapil> hello friends, i am running 10.10... my usb devices stopped working ... "lsusb" just hangs
[10:51] <Myrtti> najche, rootmark: did you have a Ubuntu question?
[10:51] <kapil> what' can cause the problem?
[10:51] <rootmark> Yes Myrtti
[10:51] <rwilson> Any body running snort
[10:51] <rootmark> We have
[10:51] <ActionParsnip> kapil: is the ram healthy?
[10:51] <rootmark> and we are asking that.
[10:52] <Gentoo64> rootmark, see if deleting .wine and reinstalling works
[10:52] <rwilson> And or splunk
[10:52] <kapil> ActionParsnip, what do you mean by that?
[10:52] <kapil> ActionParsnip, my lappy is fairly new
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> kapil: there is a memtest app in Grub, have you ran that
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> kapil: newness is irrelevant, ram can be DOA
[10:52] <kapil> ActionParsnip, ok
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> kapil: the OS runs in ram and ram issues will directly affect the OS so its a good first call, just run a few tests. If you see no red then its good. ESC to end the test and auto-reboot
[10:53] <kapil> ActionParsnip, never tried memtest ... i frequently face this problem and i hate to restart
[10:54] <almoxarife> rwilson: have run snort
[10:54] <kapil> ActionParsnip, is it possible to run memtest without rebooting? and if ram pass memtest and i still face the problem... then?
[10:54] <Gentoo64> kapil, you need to reboot
[10:55] <Gentoo64> so that nothign else is running
[10:55] <ActionParsnip> kapil: you need to reboot to memtest
[10:56] <almoxarife> kapil: so what do you frequently do to get past it?
[10:56] <kapil> almoxarife, reboot :(
[10:57] <almoxarife> kapil: well, look at it this way, this time you will take just a bit longer
[10:57] <kapil> OK

[11:07] <Gentoo64> and forget about ram
[11:07] <Gentoo64> its faster and more future proof, and everything works on it
[11:08] <omido> Gentoo64:  i have some problems with 64 bit . ubuntu recommands 32 bit and i have some software which are only in 32bit and for installing them on a 64 bit system i have to install lots of 32 bit dependency junk which i dont want to
[11:08] <Gentoo64> ActionParsnip, i could try that irqpoll sounds like a good idea, annoying thing the keyboard freezes comopletely randomly, sometimes like 7-8 hours
[11:09] <Gentoo64> hard to "test"
[11:09] <Gentoo64> but its def an issue with the mobo
[11:09] <Gentoo64> not my comp in particular
[11:09] <puszek> dd
[11:09] <puszek> d
[11:09] <MonkeyDust> omido  ubuntu recommends 32 bit, because it runs on "every" hardware, but if your system can handle 64 bit, better install that
[11:09] <puszek> d
[11:09] <Gentoo64> omido, ignore the recommended thing

[11:10] <FloodBot1> jigsaw: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:10] <cousin_luigi> omido: if everyone keeps doing that, we won't get rid of legacy software, ever
[11:10] <jigsaw> hi
[11:10] <ikonia> puszek: please stop that
[11:10] <Gentoo64> omido, 64 bit uses multilib i wouldnt worry about "deps"
[11:10] <puszek> czesc, nazywam sie puszek
[11:10] <puszek> i rucham psa jak sra
[11:10] <puszek> ahaa
[11:10] <MonkeyDust> !pl| puszek
[11:11] <conntrack> Is there socks6?
[11:11] <puszek> okay, so
[11:11] <Kikar> puszku jesetÅ wulgarny
[11:11] <Kikar> !!
[11:11] <ikonia> conntrack: no
[11:11] <puszek> I used to defecate directly into my mouth
[11:11] <ikonia> puszek: enough now
[11:11] <Gentoo64> conntrack, not afaik
[11:11] <ikonia> puszek: only warning
[11:11] <Gentoo64> why?
[11:11] <Kikar> fuck was
[11:11] <omido> Gentoo64: for example i use IBM lotus symphony office suite which is only available in 32bit and lots of other software which still are not ported to 64 bit
[11:11] <conntrack> Thanks!
[11:12] <Gentoo64> omido, not sure about that program. 64 bit should still run it though
[11:13] <iceroot> doritoDan: your issue still present?
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> Gentoo64: you can unload then reload the driver module to make it work
[11:13] <Gentoo64> as it has the ia32 emulation
[11:13] <doritoDan> iceroot: Yeah, I'm just gonna delete Ubuntu.
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> cousin_luigi: unity is a shell for gnome3, so yes
[11:13] <almoxarife> omido: 64bit ubuntu runs any 32bit app
[11:13] <doritoDan> I'll probably come back to it at a later point. :)
[11:13] <doritoDan> Thanks though.
[11:13] <Gentoo64> ActionParsnip, i saw the psmouse thing in that forum
[11:13] <Gentoo64> but
[11:13] <omido> i have a lenovo thinkpad with intel core2dou(t9600) , 4gb ddr3 , ATI mobility radeon HD 4500(256mb) 500gb 5400 rpm hard disk. 64 bit can run on my system?
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> omido: its a thing you can try, see if the issue is the gui app
[11:13] <Gentoo64> mines compiled in, and also i cant do anything, asi  have no keyboard lol
[11:13] <iceroot> doritoDan: so you dont need help anymore i guess
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> omido: its called 'fault investigation'
[11:14] <llutz> omido: grep ' lm ' /proc/cpuinfo
[11:14] <omido> ActionParsnip:  what should i do ?
[11:14] <Gentoo64> omido, yes afaik all core2duos are 64 bit
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> omido: if you want to change arch, you must reinstall
[11:14] <almoxarife> omido: I don't think so, stick to 32bit
[11:14] <MonkeyDust> omido  type uname -a and look for "64"
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> omido: you can install the 32bit PAE kernel and access up to 64Gb RAM in 32bit
[11:14] <llutz> .. in 4gb chunks
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> omido: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install xchat
[11:15] <iceroot> llutz: 1.8gb chunks
[11:15] <omido> yeah thats what i was looking for . installing pae kernel. but i'll move to 64 bit in ubuntu's next release
[11:15] <ActionParsnip> omido: if all is well:  sudo apt-get install cheese
[11:15] <ActionParsnip> omido: be sure software centre is closed
[11:15] <llutz> iceroot: aeh 4gb per process, it was. sry
[11:15] <iceroot> llutz: no
[11:15] <iceroot> llutz: 1.8gb per process
[11:15] <Gentoo64> pae is just a poor mans fix
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> iceroot: why 1.8?
[11:16] <omido> ActionParsnip: E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> omido: yes, you have software centre still open
[11:16] <doritoDan> iceroot: Yeah. Thanks though.
[11:16] <omido> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[11:16] <omido> !paste | omido
[11:16] <doritoDan> I appreciate you taking the time. :)
[11:17] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: i have to look at it at some tech-pages
[11:17] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: cant remeber the reason exactly
[11:17] <cousin_luigi> ActionParsnip: I thought Unity was compiz-based.
[11:17] <alaing> hi I'm having problems trying to ssh to my ubuntu 11.10 server edition box.  I also cant access the boxes website if i use the LAN Ip but i can if i use my www address
[11:17] <alaing> I think my box is rejecting LAN connections
[11:17] <ActionParsnip> iceroot: i'll sniff around
[11:17] <llutz> iceroot: a process can use the mem a 32bit system can address, so 3gb
[11:18] <iceroot> llutz: if i am correct there was a signed value which is redusing the 32bit to 1.8gb per process
[11:18] <omido> ActionParsnip:  how can i get rid of that issue
[11:18] <iceroot> llutz: i will do some searching on that in my docs later and ping you about it
[11:19] <cwo> 14545
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> omido: close software centre, if you still have the issue run this:
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> !aptfix | omido
[11:19] <cwo> 213
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> cousin_luigi: unity isn't a desktop,  it is merely a shell
[11:19] <Gentoo64> cwo, whats with the numbers?
[11:19] <cwo> :D
[11:20] <Gentoo64> cwo, lol
[11:20] <Gentoo64> "where do you live"
[11:20] <Gentoo64> as if that dont sound dodgy
[11:20] <funkymonk> how do i check if my server box is blocking LAN connections?
[11:21] <deej1976> funkymonk, nmap serverip
[11:21] <weecol> hello guys
[11:21] <cwo> heeloo
[11:21] <weecol> what's happening in this chann so far
[11:21] <funkymonk> deej1976: from the server?
[11:22] <deej1976> funkymonk, from remote client
[11:22] <funkymonk> deej1976: from ym windows 7 cmd it doesn't like it
[11:23] <deej1976> funkymonk, You can download nmap for windows
[11:23] <funkymonk> deej1976: I'm trying to use putty to remote to my box but it keeps timing out
[11:23] <funkymonk> deej1976: but only if i use its LAN ip
[11:24] <omido> ActionParsnip:  after i tried again that happened again. what should i do to prevent that issue ?
[11:24] <llutz> iceroot: its 4GB per process, splitted in 3GB user- and 1GB kernel-space.
[11:24] <deej1976> funkymonk, can you ping the server?
[11:24] <omido> i have to install software using the terminal forever?
[11:25] <funkymonk> deej1976: nope
[11:25] <funkymonk> deej1976: getting destination host unreachable
[11:26] <deej1976> funkymonk, nslookup servername/ipaddress does this return the correct values/name
[11:26] <kapil> ActionParsnip, finished memtest ... with no errors
[11:26] <cwo> 455514752
[11:27] <deej1976> cwo, Do you have a question?
[11:28] <funkymonk> deej1976: when i did nslookup 192.168.123.123 it pointing to my isp  cache server
[11:28] <ActionParsnip> omido: what happened again?
[11:28] <ActionParsnip> kapil: thats good. Have you tried the USB ports in legacy mode?
[11:28] <funkymonk> deej1976: and it says it cant find it
[11:28] <omido> ActionParsnip:  it stopped when it comes to applying changes
[11:28] <funkymonk> deej1976: which is correct as its a lan ip
[11:29] <ActionParsnip> omido: ok is it a text based input screen?
[11:29] <greenmang0> ActionParsnip, (kapil here under diff nick) how to do that?
[11:29] <omido> ActionParsnip:  sorry i dont understand . what is a "text based input screen " ?
[11:30] <deej1976> funkymonk, Why is the page from the www address coming from cache?
[11:30] <greenmang0> ActionParsnip, one more thing is ... when i suspend my system ... lsusb hangs
[11:30] <funkymonk> deej1976: have no idea
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> omido: the 'applying changes' does it say that in the terminal?
[11:31] <funkymonk> deej1976: i downloaded zenmap for windows
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> greenmang0: do you have the latest BIOS?
[11:32] <ActionParsnip> omido: terminal == a text based interfac e..
[11:32] <greenmang0> ActionParsnip, whatever bios came with the default lappy config
[11:32] <almoxarife> funkymonk: you want into a machine, can you 'ping' said machine and get a response?
[11:32] <ActionParsnip> greenmang0: there may be an update curing the issues you are seeing
[11:32] <greenmang0> ActionParsnip, don't know if it's latest or not
[11:33] <gunfire007> i want to use awesome wm on ubuntu how can i use it ?
[11:33] <funkymonk> almoxarife: no i cant ping it
[11:34] <MonkeyDust> funkymonk  i havent followed; LAN issues?
[11:34] <deej1976> !info awesome
[11:34] <almoxarife> funkymonk: is it firewalled?
[11:34] <ActionParsnip> gunfire007: install it and then press ALT+F2 and run:  awesome --replace    may do it, or log off and choose the session if a new one is listed
[11:34] <funkymonk> MonkeyDust: I think so
[11:34] <funkymonk> almoxarife: yes
[11:35] <MonkeyDust> funkymonk  are both machines in the same network range?
[11:35] <lynx7os5> gunfire007: sudo aptitude install awesome, then choose awsome before you login at your login screen
[11:35] <ActionParsnip> gunfire007: if it doesn't make a session entry you can make your own using the suggestion here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=678902
[11:36] <almoxarife> funkymonk: so, you want to ssh session with a machine that is firewalled?
[11:36] <funkymonk> MonkeyDust: yes they are and all on the same subnet
[11:37] <gunfire007> ActionParsnip: ok. while using awesome will it decrease my power consumption ?
[11:37] <funkymonk> almoxarife: not only ssh
[11:37] <ubuntu> hello guys

[11:39] <NCS_One> hi
[11:39] <funkymonk> ActionParsnip: yes i was able to connect before
[11:39] <MonkeyDust> funkymonk  what has changed since then?
[11:40] <funkymonk> almoxarife:  strangely i'm getting a response back which i wasn't not even 15 mins ago
[11:40] <almoxarife> funkymonk: you can access the webpage because you are going into it via the public address
[11:40] <funkymonk> almoxarife: I can access the website and ssh if i use the public address
[11:40] <funkymonk> but if i use the lan ip all the problems start
[11:41] <usertk> join #php
[11:41] <NCS_One> I have a kingston pen with 4GB that I installed ubuntu, when I restart laptop and insert the pen it freezes at bios. I tryed with other pen and it works. What could be problem?
[11:41] <raidgh0st> When it comes to a good handy video editing program. What to select?
[11:42] <MonkeyDust> raidgh0st  openshot, pitivi
[11:42] <almoxarife> funkymonk: does your router disallow internal/lan ip's to connect? you obviously can connect via the public ip for the server, so its got to be an internal thing
[11:42] <deej1976> !info pitivi | raidgh0st
[11:42] <sokak> +1 for openshot, and hi
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> NCS_One: how is that related to ubuntu if it hangs at the BIOS?
[11:43] <funkymonk> almoxarife:  let me check the mac controls brb

[11:45] <zabomber> hi
[11:45] <zabomber> im using dragon player
[11:46] <zabomber> and it doesnt stop the screen from going black when i play a movie
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> NCS_One: i'd ask in ##hardware
[11:46] <zabomber> how do i force dragon player / settings to handle screen management or stop the screen from going black?
[11:46] <funkymonk> almoxarife:  I cant see anything that would suggest that my router is blocking it
[11:47] <funkymonk> Wireless and wired clients with C checked can connect to this device; and "deny" unspecified MAC addresses to connect.
[11:47] <almoxarife> funkymonk: you said you ran zenmap, did it see the web/ubuntu-server?
[11:47] <funkymonk> Wireless clients with A checked can associate to the wireless LAN; and deny unspecified MAC addresses to associate.
[11:48] <Bioshox> Hello
[11:48] <NCS_One> ActionParsnip: thanks
[11:48] <almoxarife> funkymonk: if you are going to discount the router then you need to allow all and any contact within the network to take place
[11:51] <sokak> zabomber, try caffeine

[11:54] <muhqu> I have issues with installing ubuntu packages from http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/
[11:54] <muhqu> seems that one of the IPs (10.252.111.96) doesn't return the package repository....
[11:54] <muhqu> anyone knows who to blame?
[11:54] <almoxarife> what's the web page?
[11:54] <muhqu> curl http://10.252.111.96/Â -H 'Host: http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/' shows it is emptyâĶ.
[11:55] <almoxarife> funkymonk: run nmap on your public ip, see what is open to the world
[11:56] <muhqu> maybe someone could remove that IP from the http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ DNS
[11:56] <muhqu> until its back there
[11:57] <zabomber> maybe ill just try get VLC to work properly
[11:57] <zabomber> it keeps loosing sync on the voice
[11:57] <raidgh0st> zabomber: a bad rip?
[11:57] <sokak> most likely raidgh0st
[11:58] <zabomber> raidgh0st nah, it works fine in dragon
[11:58] <zabomber> VLC does this to ALOT of my movies :(
[11:58] <zabomber> 11.10
[11:58] <omido> ActionParsnip:  after entering the command you gave me to exit installition of cheese terminal is doing this : http://paste.ubuntu.com/769963/
[11:58] <funkymonk> almoxarife: port 2120 is not displayed even though I can access it. port 80 is displayed
[12:00] <sokak> zabomber, have a look here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=930429
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> omido: ok and do you get a license agreement after it downloads?
[12:01] <omido> not yet . i installed ms fonts before
[12:01] <omido> then i changed the download server of the packages in ubuntu software center
[12:01] <omido> and now it seems that the command line is downloading them again
[12:01] <fr33r1d3> Sometimes I have to rightclick twice on the icons on the left "launcher" in Unity to get a working menu for the icons. ANyone else have the same problem?
[12:02] <almoxarife> omido: did you decide to d/l everything on winetricks?
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> omido: when you get the license, use TAB the ENTER to accept
[12:02] <madlatvian> does any one know how to get rid of the lines that appear through movie player
[12:02] <funkymonk> how do i check whats running on port 2120
[12:03] <omido> almoxarife:  sorry but i'm noob and i dont understand what you mean
[12:03] <omido> ActionParsnip:  i did all these before using ubuntu software center . i believe after the server change its downloading them again.
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> funkymonk: netstat   can do it
[12:03] <MonkeyDust> funkymonk  lsof -i
[12:04] <raidgh0st> funkymonk: ort 2120 uses the udp protocol for service type qencp. A malformed request to port 2120 is known to cause denial of service attacks.
[12:04] <madlatvian> nmap usually tells the program running on that port
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> omido: let it have it's fun, maybe the different server has a newer version of the package...
[12:04] <omido> i was using the iranian server(preconfigured when i installed it)  and then i switched to the U.S server
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> omido: let it have its fun, may help
[12:06] <Cradam> hi, anyone know how to change your servers FQDN?
[12:06] <Cradam> oh and the computer name aswell
[12:06] <funkymonk> raidgh0st: inresting i wonder if thats why its not working because i have set up my router to block DoS attacks
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> !hostname | Cradam
[12:07] <Cradam> thanks
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> Cradam: open both files, then edit and save
[12:07] <omido> ActionParsnip:  can i install another software while its having fun ?
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> omido: no, only one application can access the packages at one time
[12:07] <Cradam> ActionParsnip: nah, i will do the command line style
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> omido: just like in windows with the windows installer
[12:08] <omido> in windows i can install many apps simontaniously
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> Cradam: still needs the same (unless you use: sudo -i)
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> omido: not if they both use the windows installer rather than their own
[12:08] <Cradam> huh?
[12:08] <Cradam> oh, i dont use sudo lol, i log in as root
[12:08] <Cradam> on the server that is
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> Cradam: if you use sudo to edit one of the files then try and use sudo to edit the next, it will not work the second time
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> Cradam: not a good idea but fine
[12:09] <sokak> omido, you can also here, but you have to check them all at once (synaptic, software center) or calling them all at once (apt-get way) you have to end an install cycle before starting another, both the software center/synaptic and apt-get will tell you.
[12:09] <bodoh> eh .. why this ubuntu gets so fucked up now?
[12:09] <MonkeyDust> Cradam  a lot of things can go wrong if you login as root
[12:09] <bodoh> what kindo f gnome is that????
[12:09] <Cradam> MonkeyDust: namely?
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> bodoh: its gnome3 probably with Unity as it is default installed
[12:09] <omido> bodoh:  its called Unity
[12:10] <bodoh> i c .. ActionParsnip .. omido
[12:10] <bodoh> is there another version then?
[12:10] <bodoh> like the normal and SANE one?
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> !nounity | bodoh
[12:10] <sokak> you can go for any other window manager.
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> bodoh: there is a guide on omgubuntu to make it look like gnome2, you can always install xfce4 and use that, it looks and smeels like gnome 2
[12:11] <omido> thank you guys for info . i need some help with installing ATI propritary fglrx drivers . i tried to install it using ubuntu's additional driver's tool but it faild . now i downloaded the latest drivers from AMD
[12:11] <bodoh> ok ActionParsnip .. thanks for the info
[12:11] <omido> which is a .run file . how can i install it
[12:11] <Cradam> MonkeyDust: this server has been alive 180 days, nothing has gone wrong as a result of my using root, the only weakness i can see of using root is that hackers know your username
[12:11] <sokak> chmod+x it then ./filename.run
[12:11] <bodoh> thanks ActionParsnip
[12:11] <RaTTuS> omido - sh ./xxx.run
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> omido: mark it as executable then run it with sudo
[12:11] <sokak> oh right, i forget always the sudo thing T_T
[12:12] <omido> thnx i'll try
[12:13] <Cradam> ActionParsnip: and to change computer name?
[12:13] <Cradam> nvm, worked it out
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> Cradam: that's what you use, those 2 files, the hostname file sets the name , the hosts file needs to be able to translate the hostname to 127.0.0.1 so sudo will work
[12:14] <BlauskaerM> man sudo
[12:14] <BlauskaerM> wrong window...
[12:16] <funkymonk> almoxarife: hmm appears that ubuntu server is blocking local requests I turned off its firewall and it connects using lan ip address
[12:16] <MonkeyDust> funkymonk  you found it?
[12:16] <funkymonk> but the connection still seems to time out
[12:16] <funkymonk> MonkeyDust: I think so
[12:17] <MonkeyDust> \O/
[12:17] <funkymonk> just need to configure it now
[12:17] <funkymonk> i've installed gnome desktop enviroment and have the friewall config tool
[12:17] <almoxarife> funkymonk: yeap, firewall
[12:18] <funkymonk> let me get a screen shot
[12:18] <MonkeyDust> darn firewall
[12:19] <MonkeyDust> couldn't you just disable ufw?
[12:19] <anon420> i just updated my lappy, as always the screen feckt up but i fixed thaT. but now theres a   black rectangle topleft of my screen that overlays everything unless im in fullscreen mode. any help?
[12:21] <funkymonk> I prefer not to
[12:21] <funkymonk> MonkeyDust: I'm using a firewall config tool which is a front-end for ufw
[12:22] <Deathbringer> hey
[12:22] <Deathbringer> how can i install java?
[12:23] <jrib> !java | Deathbringer
[12:23] <anon420> my system is scrood now after that update, so can i just downgrade back to my happy sys?
[12:23] <aokstump> does anyone here feel up to helping me figure out a little situation with my external hard drive. using g parted?
[12:23] <joep> Hi, I have a problem after installing Xubuntu 11.10 from an US-stick.
[12:23] <jrib> !downgrade | anon420
[12:24] <jrib> aokstump: please just ask your real question
[12:24] <MonkeyDust> anon420  backup and fresh install the version you like
[12:24] <Deathbringer> jrib, openjdk or jre is better?
[12:24] <aokstump> k, free for all.
[12:24] <anon420> MonkeyDust : awww i despise doing that
[12:24] <anon420> lol
[12:24] <jrib> Deathbringer: better in what sense?
[12:24] <stivo> hi all
[12:24] <aokstump> I have a Seagate 1 TB external drive and for some reason, only about half of it is available to me to use.
[12:25] <Deathbringer> jrib, is oracle java for example a superset of jdk?
[12:25] <aokstump> it sits at dev/sdc
[12:25] <jrib> Deathbringer: I don't know
[12:25] <anon420> MonkeyDust : couldnt i downgrade and then if it breaks it i can format and reinstall?
[12:25] <stivo> can anyone hlp me share  out internet connection
[12:25] <aokstump> sdc1 is about 500 gigabytes formatted NTFS
[12:25] <funkymonk> http://oi42.tinypic.com/jhan0n.jpg is what my FW confgi looks like
[12:25] <jrib> aokstump: is there unformatted space?
[12:26] <joep> Installation went without a problem and starting was also no problem. However, the texts on the screen are illegible. when it starts, the monitor says: "signal out of range" and in a text-screen all is illegible. Anybody has a solution??
[12:26] <MonkeyDust> anon420  fresh install is faster and more efficient
[12:26] <aokstump> yeah, under dev/sdc2 there are two entries
[12:26] <funkymonk> MonkeyDust: not sure why its blocking it though
[12:26] <aokstump> well dev/sdc2 is formatted "extended", if that makes sense
[12:27] <aokstump> and then underneath it there is sdc5 and sdc6
[12:27] <llutz> aokstump: thats an extended partition, which can hold logical drives (sda5+)
[12:27] <aokstump> sdc6 is 8gb of linux-swap which sort of makes sense
[12:27] <anon420> MonkeyDust | cheers man. much appreciated
[12:27] <jrib> !enter | aokstump
[12:27] <aokstump> but the big one is dev/sdc5 holding almost 500 gb of unformatted space
[12:27] <jrib> aokstump: so what do you want to do?
[12:27] <aokstump> I apologize ubottu
[12:27] <aokstump> etiquette learnt
[12:28] <aokstump> I want to be able to use the other 500 gb that seems to be sitting there unformatted to store more shtuff
[12:28] <stivo> i have two nic one with internet the other to a small network can someone help me do that
[12:28] <jrib> aokstump: so format it
[12:28] <aokstump> I just noticed I'm getting close to out of room on dev/sdc1
[12:29] <MonkeyDust> aokstump  if you're familiar with terminal commands, use fdisk to format
[12:29] <RaTTuS> aokstump sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[12:29] <jrib> aokstump: you can use gparted if you want a gui
[12:29] <aokstump> ok so I format the individual partition labeled dev/sdc5, and that won't affect the stuff I have on dev/sdc1. I would hate to lose any data
[12:30] <anon420> viva la resistance. support anonymous because within the next year they are gonna be the only ones fighting for you. and they're doing it now, too.
[12:30] <aokstump> yeah I have gparted open right now
[12:30] <Deathbringer> i got an extracted tar.gz in what folder should i copy that folder to manually install this?
[12:30] <anon420> peace
[12:30] <Si2100> Hey
[12:30] <jrib> aokstump: right, just format sdc5 to ntfs or whatever filesystem you want.  But note that if you don't want to lose the data, you would have backups.  Otherwise, you don't care about the data
[12:30] <MonkeyDust> aokstump  can you umount the partition you ant to keep?
[12:30] <MonkeyDust> want*
[12:30] <stivo> hello
[12:30] <stivo> any help
[12:31] <aokstump> good point jrib. rhetorical?
[12:31] <Mick27> Hello folks
[12:31] <Mick27> anyone can copy the content of its /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules for me ?
[12:31] <Mick27> without the mac address
[12:31] <Mick27> mine is gone so when i reboot I get no network and for some reason it does not get regenerated by udev
[12:32] <joep> Hi, I have a problem after installing Xubuntu 11.10 from an US-stick.
[12:32] <joep> Installation went without a problem and starting was also no problem. However, the texts on the screen are illegible. when it starts, the monitor says: "signal out of range" and in a text-screen all is illegible. Anybody has a solution??
[12:32] <aokstump> sdc1 is already not mounted. sdc5 (the unformatted area) is also not mounted. sdc2 and sdc6 say that they are mounted.
[12:33] <aokstump> whois jrib
[12:34] <RaTTuS> Mick27 http://pastebin.com/LDVwyvCv
[12:35] <RaTTuS> joep - ctrl-alt-f1 help?
[12:36] <joep> RaTTuS, Thansk but that doesn't give any meanibgfull characters on the screen.
[12:36] <muhqu> fyi: the issue with http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ is solved
[12:36] <Cradan> i was updating a package and i lost internet, i have regained internet but the update download isnt resuming
[12:37] <RaTTuS> joep sounds like a proper display fudge up :(
[12:37] <Cradan> sending screenshot of where it is stuck
[12:38] <Cradan> http://imagebin.org/188505
[12:38] <Mick27> RaTTuS: thx !
[12:38] <joep> RaTTuS, Yes, but using the Xubuntu from the USB-stick directly works like a charm, but after installing it on a iTb HD I got this problem.
[12:39] <MonkeyDust> joep  an external disk?
[12:40] <mwh_> Hi, maybe some here can help me out, my Ubuntu 11.10 hangs during shutdown, like 25 secs, before finally powering off
[12:40] <mwh_> this only happens when I shutdown from an x shell, not from the login screen
[12:40] <joep> MonkeyDust, No, an internal Hitachi.
[12:41] <almoxarife> mwh_: looked at the logs?
[12:42] <mwh_> almoxarife, yes
[12:42] <mwh_> almoxarife, also no signs of trouble when I look at the output during shutdown
[12:43] <mwh_> almoxarife, output is just "will now halt" "power down" and then it just hangs there from 25secs
[12:44] <MonkeyDust> mwh_  and if you shutdown from the command line, does it show something suspicious?
[12:46] <luist> how do i enable pageup and pagedown to scroll over last used commands??
[12:46] <mwh_> MonkeyDust, havent done that, but I would guess it would be the same as from the GUI?
[12:46] <MonkeyDust> mwh_  open a terminal and type shutdown -h now
[12:47] <eSoul> poweroff works as well I do believe?
[12:48] <almoxarife> MonkeyDust: doesn't he need to be outside the shell to see everything?
[12:48] <leejohn> good day guys
[12:48] <leejohn> I just want to ask is there any project concerning to gconf that it has an LDAP backend
[12:49] <leejohn> is there any project that exist like this, in order to centralize desktop setting.
[12:49] <MonkeyDust> almoxarife  i was thinking: maybe terminal shows what's happening, saving session or so
[12:50] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
[12:50] <Tech-1> sup
[12:51] <BluesKaj> nada
[12:51] <Tech-1> cool beans
[12:51] <mwh_> MonkeyDust, I will wait a little with that
[12:51] <luist> how do i enable pageup and pagedown to scroll over last used commands??
[12:52] <mwh_> MonkeyDust, BTW do you know how the shutdown command is run automatically? Is there any way I can change it in some config file?
[12:52] <iceroot> luist: like up/down-arrow do?
[12:52] <usr13> luist: What is wrong with Up and Down arrows?
[12:52] <iceroot> luist: or like "history | less"
[12:53] <usr13> luist: PageUp will go WAY back.
[12:53] <DemonWitch> generally links for the executables go to /usr/bin or the executables themselves?
[12:53] <luist> usr13, cuz i can write a pattern and pageup will complete it based on last command that started with it
[12:53] <MonkeyDust> mwh_  no, can't say
[12:54] <iceroot> luist: ctrl +r
[12:54] <luist> iceroot, thats completely less efficent
[12:54] <ikonia> ls
[12:54] <lunatichead> I am new to linux... Could somebody tell me how to invoke the logout dialogbox with some hot key
[12:54] <DemonWitch> ?
[12:54] <ikonia> oops, sorry
[12:54] <luist> iceroot, i didnt ask for alternatives.... i just want to use pageup/pagedown like on all rpm based distros
[12:54] <MonkeyDust> lunatichead  ctrl-alt backspace
[12:54] <iceroot> luist: #bash
[12:54] <lunatichead> MonkeyDust, thanks
[12:55] <luist> why everybody wants to change my problem and noone actually helps solving it?
[12:55] <Pici> DemonWitch: Generally, the executables themselves, but theres no harm in having links there.
[12:55] <iceroot> lunatichead: dont your ctrl + alt + backspace
[12:55] <iceroot> lunatichead: that is not logout, that is "restart x-server"
[12:55] <iceroot> lunatichead: and disabled in newer ubuntu-releases
[12:55] <Pici> luist: Because it seems different to us.  I'd try asking in #bash, they'd likely be more knowledable about that.
[12:56] <MonkeyDust> IceStar  did not know that myself
[12:56] <iceroot> luist: because there are already solutions for your problem
[12:56] <MonkeyDust> iceroot   did not know that myself
[12:56] <iceroot> MonkeyDust: no problem
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> lunatichead: in power settings you can make a single press on power button do lots of different things
[12:56] <lunatichead> ya.. its ctl+ALT+DEL i checked in the shortcuts... got it there
[12:57] <DemonWitch> Pici, and how do they know (if i copy just the executable) where the folders containing the data of the program are?
[12:57] <lunatichead> ActionParsnip, ok i'll try that.... I must say Linux is an Awsome experience I am havin
[12:58] <nelson777br> hello, it's possible to print in booklet format in evince ?
[12:58] <Anomie21> Is there anywhere I can download XMBC as a complete .deb package? No internet connection at home and was hoping to download it at work
[12:58] <iceroot> Anomie21: use the xmbc-ppa and use "sudo apt-get install -d xbmc
[12:58] <iceroot> !offline | Anomie21
[12:58] <Pici> DemonWitch: Your exectuable would need to be be smart enough to know that.
[12:58] <Anomie21> iceroot: ta
[12:59] <DemonWitch> Pici, i am not sure if it will be. cause i got that program as tar.gz and i manually placed the folder in /usr/share/chess
[12:59] <Pici> DemonWitch: try using a symlink then and see if it works.
[13:00] <DemonWitch> Pici, ln -s chess.sh /usr/bin/chess ?
[13:00] <DemonWitch> is that correct?
[13:00] <DemonWitch> (suppose i am already in the dir of sh)
[13:01] <Pici> DemonWitch: Yes. its ln -s <target> <linkname>
[13:01] <Mick27> Has something changed regarding grub in oneiric ? I cannot see the grub prompt at boot, only a black screen then it boots
[13:02] <skilz> How do I change my login screen? I installed tropic-gdm-theme and rebooted and nothing, also I want to disable the login sounds
[13:02] <ActionParsnip> Mick27: if you want to see grub menu, hold shift at boot
[13:02] <ActionParsnip> skilz: which release are you using?
[13:03] <skilz> not sure
[13:03] <Mick27> ActionParsnip: does not seems to help
[13:03] <sattu941> ` != ' != "
[13:03] <Mick27> let me retry
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> skilz: what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> Mick27: as soon as the system starts to power on, hold shift
[13:03] <skilz> oneiric
[13:03] <Mick27> ActionParsnip: does work :-), anyway I can force the menu to show ?
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> Mick27: thats how its done
[13:04] <skilz> ActionParsnip, oneiric
[13:04] <sattu941> Mick27: Always ?
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> Mick27: or you could edit /etc/default/grub  to change timeouts and such
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> skilz: oneiric uses lightdm by default, not gdm
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> Mick27: or do you mean the boot animation, not grub menu...
[13:04] <skilz> how do I disable lightdm and use gdm?
[13:05] <skilz> can apt-get remove lightdm ?
[13:05] <secretaria> hello!
[13:06] <secretaria> my name is Iran
[13:06] <Mick27> ActionParsnip: well I rebooted and now I see the menu again :-) thx !
[13:07] <ActionParsnip> skilz: just install gdm and it will be used (yuo will get an option of which you want to use in postinstall)
[13:07] <skilz> Ive already done that
[13:07] <skilz> but whe nIinstalled that theme it didnt change

[13:30] <Guest6715> and comes
[13:30] <Guest6715> with gnome3?
[13:30] <iceroot> doritoDan: the next lts will have 5 yeras support, not only 3 (desktop edition)

[13:31] <andygraybeal> OT omg ActionParsnip: "i keep bees, not for the honey but for the fur" hilarious..   okay i will stop being OT.
[13:31] <deej1976> !root | mike3g
[13:31]  * deej1976 going to hide
[13:31] <Guest6715> next ubuntu comes with gnome 3?
[13:31] <iceroot> Guest6715: yes
[13:32] <iceroot> Guest6715: like 11.10
[13:32] <Guest6715> thanks
[13:32] <iceroot> Guest6715: and 11.04 comes with gnome3 too (imo)
[13:32] <nhocht> are you talking about 11.10?
[13:32] <doritoDan> iceroot: Okay.
[13:32] <nhocht> not bad
[13:32] <doritoDan> somsip: Okay, thanks.
[13:32] <Guest6715> seriusly? lol
[13:33] <compdoc> Guest6715, its not gnome3, its Unity. they are different
[13:33] <iceroot> compdoc: unity is a shell for gnome3
[13:33] <compdoc> its not the gnome3 shell
[13:34] <iceroot> compdoc: i never said that
[13:34] <deej1976> !notuntuy | guest6715, compdoc
[13:34] <iceroot> compdoc: but gnome-shell is in the repos, so 12.04 is coming with gnome3
[13:34] <deej1976> !notunity | guest6715, compdoc
[13:34] <Guest6715> ah
[13:34] <compdoc> gnome-shell isnt gnome3 either - at least currently
[13:34] <iceroot> compdoc: gnome-shell is the real gnome3
[13:35] <compdoc> not the one that comes with 11.10
[13:36] <deej1976> compdoc, install gnome-shell and switch session, ta da, gnome3
[13:36] <compdoc> I have installed it on a few systems
[13:37] <compdoc> I didnt like Unity, although they seem to be fixing it lately
[13:37] <MonkeyDust> compdoc  12.04 comes with myUnity, a config tool
[13:37] <illousionary> O:-)
[13:37] <compdoc> cool
[13:39] <Yanch0> guys anyone managing to fix the 'Calling Stale Broker' problem on a windows 7 client when trying to synch to ubuntu one ?

[13:39] <ActionParsnip> Yanch0: windows is supported in ##windows
[13:40] <Yanch0> ActionParsnip, but the problme lies with ubuntu one client
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> Yanch0: yes, under windows, not ubuntu
[13:41] <MonkeyDust> Yanch0  windows treats the client differently
[13:41] <Yanch0> ActionParsnip, ok sorry then :)
[13:41] <deej1976> Yanch0: try asking #ubuntuone

[13:49] <helly^> Hello guys. I tried to upgrade ubuntu from 10.04 to 11.04 via ssh. It went OK and I rebooted. But I could not reconnect... So I went to the server and I saw that it would not boot (disc no ready .. ) I tried to mount it, but "it" will not accept the root password. So I booted Ubuntu live cd, but I cant access the disc. I'm wondering if I was a smartass and encrpyted it..
[13:49] <ratz_> MonkeyDust: kk
[13:49] <Myrtti> helly^: how did you try to upgrade?
[13:49] <varun06> Alt+Tab is not working on my Ubuntu 11.10
[13:51] <faryshta> MonkeyDust, ActionParsnip I readed both articles. They are about the drivers but is it possible to play there?
[13:51] <MonkeyDust> faryshta  haven't tried, so can't tell
[13:52] <faryshta> MonkeyDust, thanks.
[13:52] <skilz> How do I chose what GDM theme I want to use?
[13:52] <davex__> why does ubuntu unity have about 15 different libraries with 2 source files in each one?
[13:52] <MonkeyDust> faryshta  try it and you know, it makes you the expert - don't forget to backup your data, first, if you're afraid to ruin your system
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> faryshta: play in what way?
[13:53] <ActionParsnip> skilz: I believe there is a login manager icon in dash
[13:54] <faryshta> ActionParsnip,  play like putting dvd's and playing them.
[13:55] <skilz> ActionParsnip, Im not using gnome
[13:55] <Deathbringer> if i want kubuntu i can run apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, and then i will have the same thing as kubuntu if i choose kde on login manager?
[13:55] <funkymonk> I'm using filezilla in windows to connect my ubuntu box. it connects but then times out when trying to retrieve the listing directory
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> faryshta: so you want to play xbox 360 games in ubuntu?
[13:56] <faryshta> MonkeyDust, I am asking about kinect games. Are there any games that run on ubuntu? I mean x-box games.
[13:56] <faryshta> ActionParsnip, yes, you explained better than myself.
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> faryshta: 1. The games are proprietary   2. Your system is no where near opwerful enough to play the games
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> *powerful
[13:57] <faryshta> ActionParsnip, damn, will need to buy the xbox then.
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> faryshta: I don't even think an emulator exists yet, or would be any good
[13:57] <funkymonk> ActionParsnip: not for xbox360
[13:57] <funkymonk> maybe original xbox
[13:57] <Flamekebab> Anyone got a simple guide for setting up a mail server?
[13:58] <faryshta> ActionParsnip, thanks for the response, I will check on xbox prices.
[13:59] <llutz> Flamekebab: for a full featured mta https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix   if you just want to send some mails from scripts  http://www.absolutelytech.com/2010/07/17/howto-configure-msmtp-to-work-with-gmail-on-linux/
[14:00] <qcjn> hi, anyone knows how to create a launcher for a homemade script in the unity bar ?
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> qcjn: you can create a .desktop in /usr/share/application to run the script and it will appear in dash and you can drag it to the unity bar
[14:02] <petersdf_> being a newbe will someone help me install drivers permissions locations etc.
[14:02] <petersdf_> I have linux drivers on my desktop but dont know heree to put them
[14:04] <BluesKaj> petersdf_, which drivers and what are they for?
[14:04] <qcjn> ActionParsnip i tried that , but then the one on the desktop stays to ? and if i delete the one on the desktop, then the one in the unity bar dissapears to ?
[14:04] <petersdf_> wireless network usb  RAlink  RT2870
[14:08] <keda87> anyone, what is alternate software of m$ visio in ubuntu?, i'm using maverick
[14:08] <keda87> anyone, what is alternate software of m$ visio in ubuntu?, i'm using maverick
[14:08] <helly^> nvm.. Just a LVM f*up
[14:09] <keda87> anyone, what is alternate software of m$ visio in ubuntu?, i'm using maverick
[14:09] <MonkeyDust> !repeat| keda87
[14:09] <llutz> !repeat | keda87
[14:10] <keda87> ok :)
[14:11] <MonkeyDust> is maverick still supported?
[14:11] <qcjn> ok, using alacarte worked well. Put it there, then from unity application menu, just drag to the bar
[14:11] <llutz> yes
[14:11] <LiNuX`sup> is anyone familiar with permissions when running ubuntu 11.10 using bootcamp on a mac? Anytime I try to access document or desktop folders for my user on the macintosh HD I get a permission error and not even and option to enter the login info
[14:12] <petersdf_> I have linux drivers  for RaLink USB wireless RT2870 on my desktop but dont know where  to put them
[14:14] <skilz> How can I disable graphical boot and login?
[14:15] <BluesKaj> petersdf_, usually the executable goes in /usr/bin , but you probly have to extract the driver if it's in .gz  file or some such
[14:15] <skilz> I want text boot and login
[14:15] <llutz> !nox | skilz
[14:15] <e_t_> LiNuX`sup: open a terminal, "sudo su" to root, navigate to your Mac files and run "ls -l" to see what the UID is on your Mac files. The default user in Ubuntu has UID 1000, it's probably something different for Mac.
[14:15] <petersdf_> thanks I'll try that and yep they are extracted.
[14:16] <skilz> llutz, Thats not permanent is it?
[14:16] <LiNuX`sup> yes I think mac uses 501
[14:16] <LiNuX`sup> how do I change this
[14:16] <llutz> skilz: either edit /etc/default/grub to make it permanent or disable start of gdm/lightdm in /etc/init
[14:17] <devilldj> igyu\
[14:17] <jenablinsky> hey
[14:17] <devilldj> hey
[14:17] <jenablinsky> sup?
[14:17] <jenablinsky> what's up?
[14:18] <kavurt> it seems skype has dependency issues on oneiric
[14:19] <e_t_> LiNuX`sup: open /etc/passwd in an editor (must be root), find the line for your user, change the 1000's you see to what Mac uses. Be sure that you then chown your home directory to the same or you won't have a lot of fun in Ubuntu.
[14:20] <BluesKaj> petersdf_, also in order to load the driver , open a terminal and do , sudo modprobe rt2870
[14:20] <LiNuX`sup> sounds messy. I think I'll just suck it up and boot into the mac os... vomit while seeing osx and while cleaning my mess move my folders to another directory
[14:20] <e_t_> For safety, log in on one of the consoles (Ctrl-Alt-F1 -- F6), then su to root there. This will let you reverse anything that goes wrong.
[14:21] <LiNuX`sup> thanks for the help though e_t_
[14:23] <MegaDavor> Hi all. :)
[14:23] <instructor> Q. I need to add an Ubuntu machine to a windows server 2008 domain.  I'm not sure where to point the ubuntu machine to the domain machine after i set the dns
[14:24] <petersdf_> modprobe did not find the drivers, and I am having a hard time putting the files in usr.bin they dont copy.paste
[14:24] <deej1976> keda87: dia is possible the closest equivalent
[14:24] <compdoc> instructor, you use the 2008 server to provide dns? not sure what you mean
[14:24] <compdoc> you want the ubuntu machine to join the domain?
[14:25] <Flamekebab> llutz, is there no simpler guide? I followed that one and it doesn't seem to have worked. I've no idea why though
[14:25] <labassistant> compdoc: Yes
[14:25] <compdoc> thats fairly difficult
[14:25] <llutz> Flamekebab: which guide? what error?
[14:26] <BluesKaj> petersdf_, you have to use root permissions
[14:26] <e_t_> labassistant: look at the package "sadms". It's pretty good at joining Ubuntu to AD.
[14:26] <Flamekebab> llutz, this guide - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix and currently no particular error. I'm trying to access the mail server using Thunderbird and despite having a suitable user account on the server it's not accepting the details
[14:26] <petersdf_> I am a NEWBEE how do I use root permissions ??
[14:27] <labassistant> e_t_: thanks I will
[14:27] <llutz> Flamekebab: check logs /var/log/mail.*
[14:27] <MonkeyDust> !info sadms| labassistant
[14:27] <deej1976> !root | petersdf_
[14:27] <MonkeyDust> !info sadms
[14:27] <Flamekebab> llutz, there doesn't seem to be one
[14:28] <llutz> Flamekebab: grep err /etc/rsyslog.d/postfix.conf
[14:28] <Flamekebab> llutz, no output
[14:29] <compdoc> labassistant, linux file permissions and windows file permissions arent very close. Windows server comes with a software package for Unix permissions that you have to add. But thats only the start of the work you have to do. There's websites you can google
[14:29] <olivier__> Hi there
[14:29] <BluesKaj> petersdf_, alt+F2 , gksudo nautilus /usr/bin paste the executable there , altho I'm not sure if that's the correct path for a wfif driver ...can someone help us here ?
[14:29] <BluesKaj> wifi driver
[14:29] <llutz> Flamekebab: check your (r)syslogd config
[14:30] <BluesKaj> !wifi
[14:30] <BluesKaj> petersdf_, read above
[14:31] <llutz> Flamekebab: check http://www.postfix.org/documentation.html       and http://www.postfix.org/docs.html          postfix is perfectly documented
[14:31] <Flamekebab> When you say "perfectly" do you mean for someone with a great many years of configuring and admining servers exclusively from the command line?
[14:32] <llutz> Flamekebab: setting up mailservers always needs a lot of knowledge, so yes
[14:32] <MonkeyDust> Flamekebab  please add the name of the person you are addressing in your comments
[14:32] <olivier__> Am I the only one that has issues with shutdowns involving smbfs ? As a matter of fact, my Pcs take minutes to shutdown instead of seconds, and they seem to hang on the samba folders unmounting.
[14:32] <llutz> Flamekebab: btw how did you try to connect to postfix from thuunderbird? postfix is NOT a pop/imap-server
[14:32] <wh1zz0> Guys please is there a way I can upload a tar file from within ssh to another remote server?
[14:33] <Flamekebab> llutz, I have dovecot installed too
[14:33] <wh1zz0> Not wget download this time.. I'm talking uploading
[14:33] <Flamekebab> llutz, it just seems bizarrely difficult compared to, say, setting up a Mumble server
[14:33] <MonkeyDust> wh1zz0  you mean scp?
[14:33] <anand> \EXIT
[14:33] <olivier__> Does someone know how to properly unmount smbfs folders at shutdown ?
[14:34] <llutz> Flamekebab: grep log_path /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf         check logs
[14:34] <ksbalaji> What has come to synaptic? As soon as I start synaptic, my 10.04 LTS stalls!
[14:34] <wh1zz0> MonkeyDust: Like I login to a shell and I wish to save a .tar.gz file to another server.. what command do I use, how can I achive this please?
[14:34] <wh1zz0> achieve*
[14:34] <compdoc> olivier__, samba?
[14:34] <RaTTuS> wh1zz0 look at scp file user@server:location or rsync
[14:34] <MonkeyDust> wh1zz0  scp == copy over ssh
[14:34] <MonkeyDust> or rsync, idd
[14:35] <RaTTuS> !scp
[14:35] <ksbalaji> IÂīve to reboot everytime synaptic stalls 10.04 LTS
[14:35] <BluesKaj> petersdf_, run, iwconfig , in a terminal , what does it show?
[14:35] <skilz> How can I disable plymouth? when I try and remove it, it wants to remove 500mb os software
[14:36] <skilz> s/os/of
[14:36] <drunk_rambler> needed tips on how to start contributing to open source
[14:36] <olivier__> compdoc : yes samba is the service managing the shared folders. But my problem is within the client, not the server (as far as I know)
[14:36] <deej1976> ksbalaji: Do you receive any error if you run "sudo apt-get update" ?
[14:36] <compdoc> Ive never had to unmount them. I just shut down
[14:36] <BluesKaj> petersdf_, pastebin the output
[14:36] <wh1zz0> RaTTuS: So, assuming I wish to take it to my ftp server this would this work or be correct?.. e.g       scp file.tar.gz ftp://user:pass@127.0.0.1     ?
[14:36] <compdoc> olivier__, whats the problem?
[14:37] <llutz> Flamekebab: maybe this helps you too, just skip the squirrelmail stuff http://www.debianadmin.com/debian-mail-server-setup-with-postfix-dovecot-sasl-squirrel-mail.html
[14:37] <Tech-1> drunk_rambler:  hot the paypal button
[14:37] <petersdf_> iwconfig shows no extentions  and sorry what is pastebin
[14:37] <MonkeyDust> wh1zz0  rather try scp file user@remote_ip
[14:37] <Flamekebab> llutz, I'll take a look
[14:37] <ksbalaji> deej1976, I use only GUI update manager, software centre and synaptic for my jobs. I do not use commands. Do I try now?
[14:38] <deej1976> ksbalaji: Just try that command to see if any error messages are generated
[14:38] <olivier__> compdoc : At shutdown, the system hangs for several minutes. The logs are showing it's waiting for the smb shares to unmount. Manually they can be unmounted without any problem.
[14:38] <llutz> Flamekebab: but whatever you do, make sure your logging is ok, without logs you hardly will find out what's going wrong
[14:38] <drunk_rambler> hot the paypal button?
[14:38] <Tech-1> hit
[14:38] <Dj_FlyBy[ms]> if I am mounting an external drive and I want all users to be able to read from it, but only want 2 of the users to be able to write to it how can I Make this happen?
[14:39] <ksbalaji> It did its job and quit smoothly.
[14:39] <drunk_rambler> don't quite get you.
[14:39] <ksbalaji> deej1976, job went smooth.
[14:39] <labassistant> thanks I'm readin up on sadms right now
[14:39] <skilz> How can I disable plymouth? when I try and remove it, it wants to remove 500mb os software
[14:40] <compdoc> olivier__, I have never seen that. I dont think its normal
[14:40] <BluesKaj> !who petersdf_
[14:40] <deej1976> ksbalaji: Do you receive any error if you run "sudo apt-get upgrade" ?
[14:40] <Rushing> i was accessing a samba share on my ubuntu server 11 fine yesterday, but i rebooted today and now when i try to login (from windows explorer) it won't accept my username/password
[14:40] <BluesKaj> !who |petersdf_
[14:40] <new2net> When I log in it says "You have 1 new mail" How do I check it?
[14:40] <olivier__> compdoc: I don't thing either, but it happens on at least two of my 10.04 boxes
[14:40] <llutz> new2net: mail
[14:41] <new2net> llutz, is that in mailutils?
[14:41] <RaTTuS> skilz you cannot - why do you want to
[14:41] <llutz> new2net: or bsd-mailx
[14:41] <ksbalaji> deej1976, I do not want to upgrade - I prefer LTS!
[14:41] <compdoc> olivier__, try #samba, and if you find out, let me know
[14:42] <mugwort13> anyone know the name of the ubuntu installer?   Like what I would search for in synaptic?
[14:42] <olivier__> compdoc: can you try to do the same, just to see whether it's a general issue or specific to me ?
[14:42] <ksbalaji> deej1976, does not that command start upgrading? I prefer to stay with LTS please.
[14:42] <Rushing> anyone have any ideas on my issue above?
[14:43] <compdoc> olivier__, unfortunately, with different hardware and whomever installed it, it can be many problems
[14:43] <Tech-1> it dont ksbalaji  it upgrades packages only
[14:43] <deej1976> ksbalaji: It only updates the current distribution, it will not update to 11.xx ( that command is do-release-upgrade )
[14:44]  * wh1zz0 Im trying to use scp but my intention is not to copy it to another shell, I'm tyring to send it to an ftp host
[14:44]  * wh1zz0 please how cn I achieve this?
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> wh1zz0: does scp connect to ftp services?
[14:44] <deej1976> ftp ftphost
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> wh1zz0: afaik, scp only connects to sftp
[14:45] <deej1976> put filename.tar.gz
[14:45] <olivier__> compdoc: It happens on very different machines here. One has only to setup a smbfs mount in fstab, and see if it slows the shutdown
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> wh1zz0: nautilus can connect to FTP servers and appear as a folder, you can copy stuff that way
[14:46] <Dj_FlyBy[ms]> if I am mounting an external drive and I want all users to be able to read from it, but only want 2 of the users to be able to write to it how can I Make this happen?
[14:46] <provau> #list
[14:46] <Dj_FlyBy[ms]> !list provau
[14:46] <MonkeyDust> wh1zz0  you can also use an nfs connection
[14:47] <BluesKaj> wh1zz0,  scp /home/user/filetobecopied user@RemoteIP:/home/user
[14:47] <compdoc> olivier__, oh, I see. smbfs. a file system. I use ext3/4
[14:47] <compdoc> for samba shares
[14:47] <Kazem> hi every body
[14:47] <drunk_rambler> need help getting started with open source contribution. anyone that can give me leads ?
[14:47] <Kazem> :D
[14:47] <deej1976> wh1zz0: nautilus can also connect to sftp/ssh as well
[14:47] <ksbalaji> deej1976, result last line :0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. smooth?
[14:47] <wh1zz0> ActionParsnip: To better understand me.. On my machine, local machine, I do not have an SSH server set up. Meaning others can not ssh into my box from remote. But I can ssh into any server I wish. Now I'm currently logged in via ssh in my friend's server and I wish to transfer the folder to my PC
[14:48] <deej1976> So it's updating ok.
[14:48] <compdoc> olivier__, I dont think Ive ever used or seen smbfs
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> wh1zz0: so copying from the server to your system?
[14:49] <wh1zz0> Exactly
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> wh1zz0: do you have a desktop OS?
[14:49] <olivier__> compdoc: it's very handy for managing samba shares that have to be automatically mounted
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> wh1zz0: or is it all cli?
[14:49] <wh1zz0> Yes
[14:49] <wh1zz0> But I want to do this via CLI
[14:49] <ksbalaji> deej1976, now about synaptic. Nowadays I am worried to start it. It stalls everything.
[14:49] <MonkeyDust> drunk_rambler  start here http://www.ubuntu.com/community
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> wh1zz0: then connect to the SSHFS on the remote system, and copy and paste the files to your home folder
[14:49] <compdoc> olivier__, I use smb.conf - not as handy, I bet
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> wh1zz0: ahhhh
[14:49] <wh1zz0> Because I'm logged in via SSH to that server via terminal
[14:50] <deej1976> wh1zz0: username@servername:/path/to/file localcopyname
[14:50] <drunk_rambler> thanks...  i don't know how to tag users
[14:50] <deej1976> wh1zz0: scp ^^
[14:50] <ksbalaji> deej1976, I also remember that update manager once stalled everything.
[14:50] <bastidrazor> wh1zz0: scp -r folder wh1zz0@yourIP:~/
[14:50] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Huh?
[14:50] <wh1zz0> dee I didn't get that
[14:50] <wh1zz0> bastidrazor: That won't work since my I have no ssh server set up
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> wh1zz0: http://superuser.com/questions/166151/scp-to-local-desktop-remote-server
[14:50] <deej1976> wh1zz0, this will copy a file from the remove server
[14:51] <ActionParsnip> wh1zz0: http://txt.binnyva.com/2009/01/scp-copy-from-remote-to-local-system/
[14:51] <sunson> under what circumstances does the 'shutdown dialog' pop up automatically without having pressed the power button? (the power button connector from the cabinet(case) is NOT connected to the mobo)
[14:51] <bastidrazor> wh1zz0: your box is ubuntu? if so install openssh-server on it.
[14:51] <deej1976>  wh1zz0: scp  remote_userid@remote_server:/path/to/file localcopyname
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> sunson: after a kernel update possibly
[14:54] <sunson> ActionParsnip: no, it annoyingly keeps popping up
[14:54] <wh1zz0> bastidrazor: Inalling ssh server will be of no use cuz I have no router
[14:54] <sunson> like, press-escape, goes away and within 2 seconds comes back
[14:54] <wh1zz0> bastidrazor: ISP diabled
[14:55] <wh1zz0> ActionParsnip: From your link... scp -r binnyva@192.168.0.100:/home/binnyva/folder_to_copy
[14:55] <wh1zz0> ActionParsnip: How can this work without authentication?
[14:55] <bastidrazor> wh1zz0: have ssh listen on a different port. /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> wh1zz0: you'll need ssh keys seting up
[14:55] <MonkeyDust> wh1zz0  you can add keys to the ssh config files
[14:55] <e_t_> unsecure secure shell?
[14:56] <MonkeyDust> wh1zz0  but that makes it more vulnerable
[14:56] <wh1zz0> bastidrazor: Don't even think my IP has any open port
[14:56] <wh1zz0> Lol
[14:56] <wh1zz0> Even 25 is disabled
[14:56] <wh1zz0> 80 is blocked
[14:57] <wh1zz0> 22, filtered/blocked
[14:57] <nullie> I wonder if someone know, why one of my applications always starts at other workspace
[14:57] <wh1zz0> ActionParsnip: scp -r binnyva@192.168.0.100:/home/binnyva/folder_to_copy ... so this would work without password
[14:57] <wh1zz0> ?
[14:58] <wh1zz0> jeeez
[14:58] <samba35> i have setup a kvm and installed windows xp as a guest os it was working but when check after 1/2 days it is giving this error
[14:58] <wh1zz0> grrrr
[14:58] <bastidrazor> wh1zz0: no, you'll need to enter the password, unless you've setup keys
[14:58] <samba35> Error starting domain: internal error unable to start guest: char device redirected to /dev/pts/3
[14:58] <samba35> qemu: could not open disk image /dev/sr0: No medium found
[14:58] <wh1zz0> Which method are we talking about here
[14:58] <wh1zz0> ?
[14:58] <wh1zz0> I'm confused
[14:58] <compdoc> samba35, you using a block device?
[14:59] <bastidrazor> wh1zz0: also, the ip you're giving indicates a local server on you LAN..
[14:59] <helly^> what is the main diffrence between Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop and server?
[15:00] <e_t_> helly^: server doesn't default-install any GUI.
[15:00] <samba35> block device ?
[15:00] <helly^> I can still get all the pacakges that come with the server version for the Desktop edition?
[15:01] <e_t_> helly^: Yes. There's only one set of Ubuntu packages which all *buntu's use.
[15:01] <wh1zz0> ActionParsnip: I just tired that scp -r blah .. it didnt work
[15:01] <helly^> Ok, thanks.
[15:02]  * wh1zz0 please what easy method is there to go about this.. This is killing me,. gosh, just to upload a single file.. Jeez

[15:04] <compdoc> samba35, when you created the disk for the windows client, how did you do that? what type of disk?
[15:04] <samba35> ok
[15:04] <compdoc> and where is it stored? On a usb stick or what?
[15:05] <samba35> but i am sorry i really dont know i will try to create another guest and check
[15:05] <samba35> its store on hardisk
[15:05] <samba35> guest is on hardisk
[15:05] <compdoc> samba35, do you have a desktop on the server, or just command line?

[15:07] <samba35> yes same thing i am also using
[15:07] <MonkeyDust> wh1zz0  you're learning it the hard way, one day, you'll be grateful
[15:07] <bastidrazor>  wh1zz0 elaborate on "didn't work"
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> HaPK_PerCar: http://paste.ubuntu.com/770124/
[15:08] <compdoc> samba35, open virt-manager, and right-click the line at the top that says 'localhost (QEMU)" and select Details, then the Storage tab
[15:08] <llutz> wh1zz0: http://principialabs.com/beginning-ssh-on-ubuntu/
[15:08] <samba35> ok then
[15:09] <BluesKaj> wh1zz0,you are ssh'd into the remote server which has to be treated as local at your cli prompt so,  scp -r /pathto/Folder @yourpcIP:/pathtotarget
[15:09] <html> how do i get puppy linux to install INside a folder first and then have it boot fine with a dual boot on the way
[15:09] <fmauro> BluesKaj: this will only work if he  has a ssh server running which he doesn't
[15:09] <fmauro> wh1zz0: can I pm you? I have an idea
[15:10] <BluesKaj> scp -r /pathto/Folder user@yourpcIP:/pathtotarget
[15:10] <puff> Pandora's flash player hoses my firefox, is there a more ubuntu-friendly internet music site?
[15:11] <gulzar> with gnome if we click on a font fle ... a dialog appears and shows the font and option to install it. ( saw in Mint and Ubtunu). Which is that package?
[15:11] <fmauro> puff: way offtopic but, grooveshark maybe?
[15:11] <html> puff,  pandroa does work ?
[15:11] <e_t_> puff: Last.fm has a client app in the repos.
[15:11] <BluesKaj> fmauro, he'can copy from the server to his machine withtat command
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> puff: groovsharke maybe
[15:12] <fmauro> BluesKaj: no he cannot, as he has no openssh-server on his machine
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> puff: musictube too (costs 9 euros but very worth it)
[15:12] <BluesKaj> fm he's not serving from his machine
[15:13] <nbubuntu> hi , would like to know is there any option for ubuntu to check for "Recent view files" ?
[15:13] <nbubuntu> thanks
[15:13] <fmauro> BluesKaj: maybe I got it wrong, but from my lastlog I read, he has a remote ssh server, he's currently ssh'd into that, he wishes to transfer a file to his local machine without ssh-server
[15:13] <Flamekebab> Oh dear gods, why is this so difficult.
[15:14] <gulzar> Please help . With gnome and KDE if we click on a font fle ... a dialog appears and shows the font and option to install it. ( saw in Mint and Ubtunu). Which is that package?
[15:14] <MonkeyDust> Flamekebab  because you're learning
[15:14] <szal> Flamekebab: what exactly is difficult?
[15:14] <Flamekebab> MonkeyDust, I really don't feel I am. I can't find a guide that can even explain what my domain's MX records should look like
[15:15] <Flamekebab> They just say "make sure they're right"
[15:15] <wh1zz0> fmauro: Yes please you can .. llutz: Thanks for the link, I read thru and this just that:: mail:~john$ scp -r videos wh1zz0@192.168.1.2:/home/wh1zz0 .. but the cursor just keeps blinking after pressing the return (enter) key
[15:15] <Flamekebab> szal, I'm trying to setup a mail server. I find it bizarre that there isn't a load of sensible presets available
[15:15] <llutz> Flamekebab: create an A-record "mail.yourdomain.com  1.2.3.4"  IP of your mailserver, then MX-record "mail.yourdomain.com"
[15:15] <Flamekebab> Instead I have to change countless variables (and nothing seems to want to explain why, or what they mean)
[15:16] <RaTTuS> wh1zz0 - try with one file 1st
[15:16] <puff> html: pandora works... until it crashes firefox. Even before that, it makes the UI very jerky/laggy (though not the music).
[15:16] <pandora01> I understand
[15:16] <llutz> wh1zz0: 192.168.1.2 has sshd running?
[15:17] <BluesKaj> fmauro, the server is installed by default if he installed ssh on his pc
[15:18] <MonkeyDust> Flamekebab  with tasksel (task select), you can choose mail server, but take care, you're asked a lot of questions
[15:18] <Flamekebab> llutz, that apparently was omitted from every accursed guide thus far
[15:18] <tlu> hi, is it possible to start daemon (e.g. tomcat), but it should start for specific user (not root)?
[15:18] <compdoc> olivier__, this is from the samba.org website: "smbfs has not been maintained in the last few years. Instead, development has been focused on another implementation of the CIFS protocol in the kernel. "
[15:18] <wh1zz0> ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.2 port 22: Operation timed out
[15:18] <wh1zz0> lost connection
[15:18] <Flamekebab> MonkeyDust, when I tried that it just said "100%" and then closed
[15:18] <wh1zz0> That's the error I got
[15:18] <llutz> wh1zz0: 192.168.1.2 has sshd running?
[15:19] <llutz> Flamekebab: thats DNS not smtp, so why should they mention? ;)
[15:20] <diatomaceous> Can I remove the global menu bar from my secondary monitor? I really don't want it there :)
[15:20] <Flamekebab> llutz, you explained it in a single sentence. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to explain it like that instead of "make sure they're right"
[15:20] <gulzar> Please help . With gnome and KDE if we click on a font fle ... a dialog appears and shows the font and option to install it. ( saw in Mint and Ubtunu). Which is that package?
[15:21] <html> puff i think its the flash player,, i have been having trouble with mine
[15:21] <wh1zz0> llutz:   I already have openssh-client and openssh-server installed
[15:21] <szal> gulzar: are you schizophrenic, or is that majestic plural? ;)
[15:21] <llutz> wh1zz0: can you "ssh wh1zz0 @192.168.1.2"
[15:21] <szal> gulzar: and what is a 'fle'?
[15:22] <MonkeyDust> pluralis maiestatis
[15:22] <rlex> how do you buy umbongo?
[15:22] <llutz> wh1zz0: can you "ssh wh1zz0@192.168.1.2"?
[15:22] <gulzar> szal: ops.. its 'file'
[15:22] <lunatichead> I have a problem, I recently brought a Toshiba TV with VGA conection, I connected my Laptop running Mint12.... The display for the TV does not go above 1240*768 the TV is 24 inch...

[15:22] <shomon> hi, I'm mounting a drive via ssh on my desktop, so it's in "places", but after a while I get a DBus NoReply error. How do I mount it properly without having to log out and in?
[15:23] <shomon> I should say it also works fine when launched. this happens after a while.
[15:23] <MonkeyDust> shomon  use nfs
[15:23] <lunatichead> I have a Ubuntu 11.10 as well tried it with that ... Had the same problem..
[15:23] <rlex> hello, zealots
[15:23] <MonkeyDust> !nfs| shomon
[15:24] <deej1976> lunatichead: Does the monitor/tv support a resolution higher than that, have you checked the manual
[15:24] <lunatichead> Yes it does
[15:24] <BluesKaj> wh1zz0, install openssh-server on your pc if it isn't already
[15:24] <lunatichead> Tested it with a windows machine it detects correctly
[15:24] <shomon> thanks MonkeyDust but this I only have access via ssh :(
[15:24] <html> puff ?
[15:24] <MonkeyDust> shomon  install nfs-kernel
[15:25] <lunatichead> Read about Xander but I am not sure HOw I could use it
[15:25] <shomon> MonkeyDust, why install nfs? I want to sort out this DBus error, not switch to a whole new system?
[15:25] <skilz> how do I show the list of ppa's added?
[15:25] <skilz> so I can edit/delete
[15:26] <BluesKaj> fmauro,  sorry , I'm mistaken , I was assuming he had the ssh-server installed ..
[15:26] <MonkeyDust> skilz  ubuntu-tweak has that option
[15:26] <skilz> is there a file like /etc/apt/sources.list
[15:26] <llutz> skilz: grep -ri ppa /etc/apt/*
[15:26] <fmauro> BluesKaj: don't sweat it man. Happens to me too.
[15:27] <puff> html: Quite probably.
[15:27] <puff> html: Quite probably the flash player, but any way you slice it, I have work to do and I just want something to drown out the distractions :-(.
[15:27] <html> puff,  so have you u updated it?
[15:28] <puff> html: I'm trying Grooveshark (currently listening to _I'm An Adult Now_ by The Pursuit of Happiness).
[15:28] <html> puff,  you got a deskop ?
[15:28] <BluesKaj> fmauro, i think it's quite simple , all he needs is to configure the server and permissions/pws
[15:29] <Scrivener> Using Ubuntu 11.10, I minimized a Chrome window and cannot get it back. It had a video running, so I still hear the sound from it, but using the Chrome icon in the launcher only opens new Chrome windows. I cannot get any minimized ones back. Why is this?
[15:29] <puff> html: both flashplugin-installer and flashplugin-downloader:i386 are up to date.
[15:29] <fmauro> BluesKaj: yeah, I'm currently pm'ing him , he has no authority over NAT-traversals, but we're just rsyncing the stuff know from the remote server
[15:29] <fmauro> *now
[15:30] <ServerTechLaptop> my floppy is not being read by the floppy drive in the system?
[15:30] <puff> html: I don't see anything in "dpkg -L flashplugin-installer" or "dpkg -L flashplugin-downloade:i386" that looks like a bin.
[15:30] <html> puff,  go to youtube and open 3 videos at the same time ,, tell me what happens
[15:30] <puff> html: desktop?
[15:30] <html> yres
[15:30] <lunatichead> Any Ideas, how to get it working.. or check for any logs to further troubleshoot
[15:30] <puff> html: You gonna crash my browser? :-).
[15:31] <puff> html: I have a laptop, the GUI has a desktop.
[15:31] <html> yes, what do you have for specs?
[15:31] <puff> html: thinkpad t520, i7, 8GB of ram.
[15:31] <puff> html: but crappy video support (I curse nvidia and all of their tribe).
[15:31] <puff> html: So I'm using the onboard intel video.
[15:33] <puff> html: So, now I have three youtube videos playing simultaneously.
[15:33] <Scrivener> I'll give it 5 minutes and then repost my question ;)
[15:33] <Scrivener> Since this channel moves so fast...
[15:33] <html> puff tHANKS  that helps ,  brb to ask all knowing google  about this , (sigh* and i hope i dont find my pic somewhere
[15:34] <manoj> Hi
[15:34] <html> Scrivener,  well theres been times its gone so fast you BEST be really good at reading atleast
[15:34] <Scrivener> Heheh.
[15:34] <tlu> Hi, Can anyone help? My question is: Is it possible to start daemon (e.g. tomcat configured in /etc/rc*.d), but it should start for specific user (not root) e.g. user 'tlu'?
[15:34] <Scrivener> Mind if I repost now?
[15:35] <Scrivener> I'm researching the issue on google still...
[15:35] <Scrivener> Not coming across much that's exactly the same yet.
[15:35] <Scrivener> I did in one case, but the solution wasn't really a solution.
[15:35] <ServerTechLaptop> anyone? when i click detect media on the floppy drive the light on the floppy drive lights up but that's it.
[15:35] <puff> tlu: Yes, that should be possible.
[15:36] <tlu> puff: Where could I read about that? What keywords to search in Google?
[15:36] <puff> tlu: However, note that if only root processes can atach to ports 1024 or lower, so if yuo want to use port 80 you'lll have to set up a port forwarder.
[15:36] <bubbles|> hi
[15:37] <Scrivener> Alright -- I did find a solution. Super-W will work to get my chrome window back...
[15:37] <Scrivener> But I'd still like to know why it simply disappears when minimized to launcher.
[15:37] <Scrivener> And using the launcher icon only opens new winwos.
[15:37] <bubbles|> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix <- why doesn't postfix ask me for the certificate password like apache here?
[15:37] <Scrivener> windows*
[15:37] <puff> tlu: Try: tomcat "not as root" rc.d
[15:38] <manoj> I am not much familiar with ubuntu, I am having problem with my sony vaio laptop, camera is not working after installing chees also
[15:39] <puff> tlu:  The generic mechanism is setuid, but I'm not sure that's helpful.  #tomcat is probably a better channel for this question, too.
[15:39] <deej1976> !webcam | manoj
[15:40] <tlu> puff: thanks, will try tomcat channel. Also will look at port forwarding!
[15:40] <gulzar> szal: anything?
[15:41] <Scrivener> Using Ubuntu 11.10, I minimized a Chrome window and cannot get it back. It had a video running, so I still hear the sound from it, but using the Chrome icon in the launcher only opens new Chrome windows. I cannot get any minimized ones back without using Super-W. Why is this?
[15:42] <sparr> Sometimes I can't get to menu bars in 11.10, the top bar stays the titlebar when I hover it or press Alt, the only change being the close/min/max buttons. How can I fix that?
[15:43] <joesuffceren> I'm using Ubuntu Rescue Remix to attempt to recover an HFS+ partition (ideally) or to do some file carving if I have to. The drive is a 1TB usb(sata) drive, and does not seem to be suffering any physical damage. I can see one small FAT partition (EFI stuff) and a large HFS partition. the HFS partition will mount just fine but doesn't seem to have any data  on it (looks like a MacOS "skeleton" fold
[15:43] <joesuffceren> er structure)
[15:43] <Scrivener> Chrome also never shows an indication that it has been used (i.e. no little white arrows by it showing that it's in active use).
[15:43] <puff> tlu: Also, check out Jason Britain's tomcat packages, they include init scripts and such.  These may have been folded into the ubuntu tomcat packages by now (I think Jason might be the maintainer now).
[15:44] <joesuffceren> I don't know much/anything about MacOS. The drive belongs to my cousin who was working normally and was suddenly unable to read the disk. I did a quick search with testdisk, and it did not find any partitions other than the two I mentioned above. I then did a deeper search (running now), and it's found 50+ HFS partitions as it's searched
[15:44] <puff> tlu: Then again, it's been awhile since I looked into this.
[15:45] <puff> joesuffceren: There's a #macosx channel tha tmight be helpful.
[15:45] <tlu> puff: tx
[15:45] <manoj> thanks for the information about web cam.
[15:46] <joesuffceren> puff: Thanks. I can try that. I don't have a mac, though. I'm trying to recover an HFS partition using URR. You think people in #macosx could help me when I don't have a mac to do recovery on?
[15:46] <szal> gulzar: for KDE it's KFontView, what Gnome uses I have no idea
[15:46] <szal> gulzar: and there are no decent font viewers for Linux anyway
[15:47] <truefx> is there a compiler design channel ?
[15:47] <szal> gulzar: the Windows properties dialog for fonts is MUCH better in this regard, at least when installing the font properties extension
[15:47] <truefx> and also os developmend

[16:05] <pepper> hey guys i have an issue. i have an external cd/drive which is not mounting please assist
[16:06] <Fixer> !voicespeed
[16:06] <Jack`> ActionParsnip can you take look at it   http://pastebin.com/VMnbShqc

[16:07] <bubbles|> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix <- why doesn't postfix ask me for the certificate password like apache here?
[16:07] <deej1976> tlu, and it prompts when you run the command?
[16:07] <RaTTuS> try the open DNS option
[16:07] <tlu> deej1976: yes
[16:08] <pepper> i am unable to mount external cd/drive on usb
[16:10] <puff> html: Heya.
[16:11] <puff> joesuffceren: Good question, dunno, but there might well be somebody there who knows both mac and linux.
[16:11] <RaTTuS> pepper - unplug it , tail -f /var/syslog , plug it back in
[16:11] <shgadwa> My computer here is not working right... I cannot access most of /var because it says read only file system.
[16:11] <pepper> ok let me try  that
[16:11] <shgadwa> First I was unable to boot it up, then  I ran fsck on it. Now it boots up but as read only.
[16:12] <shgadwa> Any ideas?
[16:12] <compdoc> shgadwa, theres an option in fstab that mounts a filesystem in readonly mode when theres a problem
[16:12] <shgadwa> So, disable that option?
[16:12] <ActionParsnip> Jack`: have you tried a different source server?
[16:13] <compdoc> no, open disk util, and look at the SMART data. see if it says the disk is healthy (green)
[16:13] <Jack`> ActionParsnip how do i change server
[16:13] <llutz> shgadwa: better to check _why_ it mounts ro
[16:13] <MetaGod> I have a problem with flash on my ubuntu 9.10, for example if i look on a youtube video and load up another site or what ever, its like a 30% chance the video will poof and become white. as if no flash is active
[16:13] <shgadwa> Just a hunch but I think my hard drive is going bad.
[16:13] <MetaGod> any ideas anyone?
[16:14] <abhijain> Is there any one who can help me for full screen resoulution help for ubuntu 11.10 on vmware
[16:14] <RaTTuS> !flash
[16:14] <pepper> tail -f is giving me an error that it is indefinitly in effective
[16:14] <abhijain> I dont know how to run vmware tool on linux ubuntu 11.10
[16:15] <BarkingFish> shgadwa: if you check your fstab, you may find the disk you're having trouble with has the option  errors=remount-ro  attached to it.  You might want to check the drive over at reboot, which I believe you can force through fsck.
[16:15] <compdoc> shgadwa, open disk util, and look at the SMART data. see if it says the disk is healthy (green) see if it has reallocated sectors
[16:15] <Jack`> ActionParsnip how do i change server
[16:16] <RaTTuS> abhijain see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware
[16:16] <bastidrazor> Jack`: software sources > download from > find best server
[16:17] <MetaGod> Ok it possible i am using 32bit flash, so i will try to install 64bit, But a question, do i need to uninstall the prior 32bit or will the 64 bit one override it?
[16:17] <Jack`> bastidrazor check query
[16:18] <pepper> RaTTus:when i  run the commands it gives me this warning. ail: warning: following standard input indefinitely is ineffective
[16:22] <Jack`> RaTTuS any more ideas
[16:22] <lighta> is there a irc chan support for rapidsvn ?
[16:26] <Jack`> RaTTuS any more ideas

[16:28] <_calum> Hi. I accidentally installed Ubuntu alongside windows 7, I want it in its own partition. How do I remove that installation?
[16:28] <AdvoWork> if ive plugged a USB HD into my ubuntu client pc, but it says that its the wrong FS type, can i format it/fix it so it is?
[16:28] <SmartTowel> Logged in this morning, and my virtual monitor taskbar is stuck at the top.  And yes, I did try right clicking it and moving it but the right click doesn't make any menu appear.  Anyone have any suggestions?
[16:28] <Jack`> SmartTowel try draging it
[16:28] <html> puff have you tried lastfm?
[16:29] <Jack`> click with your mouse an drag it
[16:31] <joesuffceren> puff: thanks for the recommendation. have asked, now, there and here. Hopefully someone who is familiar with HFS and recovery tools can help me in one of the channels.
[16:31] <Arizona_Bay> there isnt skype for ubuntu 11.10?
[16:31] <Arizona_Bay> O_O
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> Arizona_Bay: sure there is
[16:31] <webnet> Arizona_Bay, there is but you need to get it from the skype website
[16:31] <_calum> I assumed when I did the alongside windows 7 install it would put an uninstall icon in Win7, but it didn't. What do I do now?
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> Arizona_Bay: grab the deb from www.skype.com
[16:31] <SmartTowel> Jack, tried.
[16:31] <Arizona_Bay> im there, the only versions available are for 10.04
[16:31] <_Marcus> http://ubuntuguide.net/install-skype-on-ubuntu-11-04-natty-narwhal-3264-bit
[16:31] <jack^_> dammit. imposter
[16:31] <jack^_> hehe
[16:31] <Arizona_Bay> and there isnt a version in the software center
[16:31] <SmartTowel> its almost like its locked
[16:31] <_Marcus> Try that Arizona_Bay
[16:32] <Arizona_Bay> alright
[16:32] <webnet> Arizona_Bay, i dont think its in the repos or software center
[16:32] <webnet> the 10.04 will work fine Arizona_Bay
[16:32] <Arizona_Bay> 64 bit or 32 bit?
[16:32] <SmartTowel> JACK, im using gnome with no effects.
[16:32] <SmartTowel> gnome 2
[16:32] <Jack`> jack^_ you talking to me
[16:32] <Jack`> :P
[16:32] <ActionParsnip> Arizona_Bay: for software centre, you need to enable partner repo
[16:32] <webnet> Arizona_Bay, are you 32 or 634 bit ubuntu
[16:32] <webnet> ??
[16:32] <webnet> *64 bit
[16:32] <Jack`> SmartTowel my ideas just ran out
[16:32] <Jack`> :P
[16:33] <SmartTowel> yes, to Jack'
[16:33] <SmartTowel> lol
[16:33] <Jack`> :P
[16:33] <Arizona_Bay> Webnet I have no idea i know that i had 64 bit with windows 7
[16:33] <SmartTowel> its not a big deal, but minimizing a window and seeing go up is just unnatural
[16:33] <SmartTowel> its annoying me lol
[16:33] <Arizona_Bay> ill try 64 bit
[16:34] <webnet> Arizona_Bay, open terminal and run this
[16:34] <webnet> uname -m
[16:34] <_calum> wait, think I've solved my issue
[16:35] <webnet> i fyou see x86_64 you have 64 bit
[16:35] <_calum> never mind :)
[16:35] <webnet> Arizona_Bay, my last msg was for you
[16:35] <dijonyummy> is there a way to find out what may have caused kernel panic after i reboot
[16:35] <scsheep> anyone know how to solve the issue of data not being copied to a clip board when cutting and pasting ?
[16:35] <ActionParsnip> Arizona_Bay: Ive seen softwzare centre install 32bit skype on 64bit ubuntu before
[16:36] <scsheep> only started being a problem on the 11.04 update
[16:36] <ActionParsnip> scsheep: do you have parcellite installed and running?
[16:36] <html> puff lastfm, spotify iheart radio
[16:36] <OerHeks> scsheep, i noticed this too, with a adblock-thingy enabled in chromium, it is called a protection.
[16:36] <webnet> ActionParsnip, yeah im pretty sure (Correct me if im wrong here) installing 32 bit on a 64 bit OS is fine just not the other way around
[16:36] <scsheep> ActionParsnip: not sure give me a sec
[16:37] <ActionParsnip> webnet: it is but its good to match arch, especially when 64bit deb exists
[16:37] <ActionParsnip> scsheep: it sorts al copying and pasting :)
[16:37] <scsheep> installing it now :D
[16:37] <webnet> ActionParsnip, yeah. i figured as much.
[16:37] <webnet> :)
[16:38] <scsheep> ActionParsnip: thats sorted it thankyou.
[16:38] <Arizona_Bay> it worked :) thanks
[16:38] <ActionParsnip> scsheep: np, personally I think it should be default, along with guake
[16:40] <MonkeyDust> and byobu
[16:40] <scsheep> used to use Yakuake, havent installed guake
[16:40] <scsheep> MonkeyDust: id be lost without byobu
[16:41] <MonkeyDust> scsheep  we understand each other... friend
[16:41] <MonkeyDust> :p
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> scsheep: same deal, just GTK based. Yakuake uses Qt
[16:44] <ActionParsnip> scsheep: tilde is a super light drop down terminal :)
[16:44] <llutz> a ActionParsnip  tilda
[16:44] <scsheep> will check it out thankyou
[16:45] <woozly> guys, how to disable keyring on startup?
[16:45] <woozly> I don't wanna type password any time I bootup
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> woozly: set a blank password and it won't bother you
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> woozly: for the keyring that is
[16:46] <Deathbringer> hey
[16:46] <mainecoon> why does a X terminal user not show in who or w list?
[16:46] <woozly> but where to change a password?
[16:46] <woozly> ActionParsnip
[16:47] <mainecoon> I mean when u open up "Terminal" and type who or w, I don't see myself...does anybody know why?
[16:48] <Deathbringer> why gnome shows my my home folder instead of the desktop folder (on the desktop)?
[16:48] <compdoc> mainecoon, who do you see?
[16:49] <mainecoon> compdoc nobody
[16:49] <mainecoon> if I use xterm then I can see myself logged into a shell though
[16:49] <compdoc> ssh shows me
[16:49] <mainecoon> But not when I use Ubuntu "Terminal"
[16:50] <compdoc> let me log in with vnc
[16:50] <compdoc> same
[16:51] <mainecoon> The Ubuntu Terminal is "xfce4-terminal"
[16:51] <compdoc> ohh, xfce
[16:51] <kvijayeddy10> hi
[16:52] <puff> Try who -a
[16:53] <mainecoon> but how to get "w" to work?
[16:53] <mainecoon> And can u explain the mechanism of why it doesnt show the terminal user?
[16:54] <woozly> Guys, does Ubuntu has way to change between spaces
[16:54] <woozly> by 2/3 fingers on touchpad?
[16:54] <puff> mainecoon: http://askubuntu.com/questions/75333/why-doesnt-w-or-who-command-show-all-logged-in-users
[16:55] <woozly> like in macos
[16:55] <puff> woozly: Spaces?
[16:55] <woozly> mm..

[16:55] <woozly> I have multitouch touchpad
[16:55] <puff> woozly:  I lied, ctrl-alt-left and ctr-alt-right
[16:55] <woozly> o_O
[16:55] <puff> woozly: Ah, good question, dunno.
[16:55] <hatim> woozly: you mean like ctrl+alt+right_arrow
[16:56] <puff> woozly:  I hardly ever use the touchpad myself.
[16:56] <woozly> :)
[16:56] <woozly> puff, thanks
[16:56] <mainecoon> puff: THANX!!
[16:56] <woozly> hatim, thanks
[16:56] <puff> woozly: But maybe there's a way to map a touchpad gesture to the same macro.

[17:01] <RaTTuS> kvijayeddy10 - 1) buy more HD space or 2) delete some crud
[17:01] <kvijayeddy10> want to replace windows7 with ubuntu retaining vmdk file (of size 269gb)
[17:02] <xaxm> Can someone help me with wireless network card?
[17:02] <yeehaw> External harddrive? Copy it to another server
[17:02] <yeehaw> ?
[17:02] <_Marcus> How do I set permissions for a directory and it's directories inside of it from terminal?
[17:02] <yeehaw> xaxm: Do you see it with iwconfig?
[17:03] <_Marcus> I want to make it be writable for my FTP user
[17:03] <xaxm> "yeehaw i dont know. i see it with lspci
[17:03] <yeehaw> _Marcus: Chown -R user:group *
[17:03] <xaxm> its just deactivated and the touch button doesnt work.
[17:03] <RaTTuS> _Marcus sudo chmod -R 777 direcotry for example
[17:03] <yeehaw> xaxm: iwconfig in terminal
[17:03] <xaxm> give me a sec
[17:04] <yeehaw> xaxm: If you see it then you could try iwconfig wlan0 up
[17:04] <kvijayeddy10> RaT
[17:05] <mainecoon> puff: how is xfce4-terminal related to LightDM though?
[17:05] <RaTTuS> kvijayeddy10 usb HD cna help a load ....
[17:05] <kvijayeddy10> RaTTuS: can full install ubuntu on hdd, keeping old vmdk file (large size) intact on hdd
[17:06] <RaTTuS> kvijayeddy10 are they on seperate partitions ?
[17:06] <kvijayeddy10> RaTTuS: 269gb of vmdk will take 4hrs to come back onto hdd from usb drive
[17:06] <_Marcus> Thank you RaTTuS and yeehaw
[17:06] <kvijayeddy10> RaTTuS: on single partition now
[17:06] <perlsyntax> Is there a PPA for python 2.7.2 on ubuntu 10.10?
[17:06] <kvijayeddy10> ntfs on windows7
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | perlsyntax
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> perlsyntax: check the link, handy search
[17:07] <RaTTuS> kvijayeddy10 your probably out of luck - though making a backup onto exteral HD will save heartache later
[17:07] <yeehaw> _Marcus: Don't chmod everything to 777 btw, It will become world readable editable
[17:08] <kvijayeddy10> RaTTuS: already i have vmdk file on usb drive
[17:08] <perlsyntax> i just look under python 2.7 if i am right.
[17:08] <mainecoon> Is anyone running 11.10 that can test something real quick please?
[17:09] <kvijayeddy10> RaTTuS: i can install ubuntu and put vmdk back on hdd from usb drive but it takes 4hrs of time as vmdk file is large size of 269gb
[17:09] <BarkingFish> _Marcus: you can set those numbers yourself - it's pretty easy.  the first is what root can do, the second is you, and the third is other users.
[17:09] <RaTTuS> kvijayeddy10 ... ok ... your still out of luck really unless the installer can shrink the extising paration
[17:09] <davemac> may be a silly question but does 11.10 have wobbly windows yet ?
[17:09] <llutz> BarkingFish: s/root/owner/
[17:09] <compdoc> mainecoon, such as?
[17:09] <BarkingFish> sorry, llutz - apologies
[17:09] <llutz> BarkingFish: permission are owner-group-everyone
[17:09] <_Marcus> yeehaw: I didn't, I did "chown -R username /directory" and it worked
[17:10] <mainecoon> compdoc can u open xfce4-terminal, type w, and tell me if u see yourself..and then repeat with xterm
[17:10] <Goeland86> guys, I have a serious problem - I wanted to format a partition to install Linux on, and accidentally formatted my data partition instead :( Is there any way I can recover the NTFS partition and my data?
[17:10] <compdoc> mainecoon, as far as I know, xfce is not a part of 11.10, is it?
[17:11] <RaTTuS> Goeland86 - probably not .... [well not easily]
[17:11] <perlsyntax> ?
[17:11] <BarkingFish> each number's built from adding others together - read is 4, write is 2 and execute is 1.  you add what you want the permission to be, for each one - owner, group and everyone else.
[17:11] <compdoc> you can install it, but it doesnt come with it
[17:11] <sipior> Goeland86: gah. if it's already formatted, you're in a fair bit of trouble.
[17:11] <mainecoon> compdoc I added package Xubuntu-desktop
[17:11] <compdoc> maybe Im thinking of the worng thing
[17:11] <yeehaw> Goeland86: Helix, easy recover will sometimes help
[17:11] <yeehaw> If you didn't write anything to it after that
[17:11] <perlsyntax> Loook like no one knows thank for the help.
[17:11] <compdoc> mainecoon, yeah. I use gnome or unity
[17:12] <_Marcus> I want to make it so that a user can only access a directory and it's directories under it, not / and all of it's directories. How would I do this?
[17:12] <BarkingFish> llutz: sorry, I'm up to my head with flu and a fever. I can barely see straight, let alone think straight :P
[17:12] <mainecoon> compdoc But I think it was in regular ubuntu login too..I could be wrong tho
[17:12] <Goeland86> RaTTuS, sipior it was only a high level format - shouldn't have modified (much) data
[17:12] <yeehaw> _Marcus, that's done with chown
[17:12] <Goeland86> yeehaw, helix you say?
[17:12] <Goeland86> I'll give that a shot
[17:12] <kvijayeddy10> RaTTuS:  can i boot from bootable usb of ubuntu and try demo before install, can i at that time could see hdd partition ?
[17:12] <mainecoon> Isn't XFCE default in regular ubuntu as well?
[17:12] <_Marcus> yeehaw: What do you mean?
[17:12] <siavoshkc> DO NOT WRITE ANYTHING ON FORMATED PARTITION
[17:12] <yeehaw> _Marcus: you chown the directories that the user needs to access to that user with. chown user:group
[17:12] <RaTTuS> _Marcus sudo chown -R user:group
[17:12] <sipior>  Goeland86: probably not, but don't expect a complete recovery.
[17:13] <BarkingFish> siavoshkc: Turn your caps lock off please :)
[17:13] <RaTTuS> kvijayeddy10 yes you should eb able to see it ...
[17:13] <sipior> siavoshkc: that would make it difficult to get any work done.
[17:13] <kvijayeddy10> RaTTuS: if i could see hdd at that time, i will  remove window7 related stuff, it will increase space
[17:13] <yeehaw> _Marcus: But you will have to create a seperate group for that user, if he's in your standard users he can access every file normal users can
[17:13] <office3> I set my computer to suspend, and when I just tried to wake it up, it only has a blank screen. What do I do?
[17:13] <sipior> Goeland86: restoring from backups is vastly cheaper/more reliable/faster
[17:13] <siavoshkc> sipior: no
[17:13] <kvijayeddy10> RaTTuS: i will get 51gb free space ( 320gb -269gb = 51gb)
[17:14] <Goeland86> sipior, well I have a LOT of data, some of it that hasn't made it to backups (like a tarball of my gentoo system)
[17:14] <RaTTuS> kvijayeddy10 it will be NTFS so not useful for ubuntu
[17:14] <BarkingFish> office3: which environment are you using? Unity, Gnome, XFCE?  You may just be able to switch to a terminal and restart your display manager
[17:14] <yeehaw> _Marcus: Also, look at this: http://mpm-itk.sesse.net/
[17:14] <siavoshkc> use a recovery application
[17:14] <kvijayeddy10> i willl re-boot and install ubuntu ( choosing install ubuntu sidewise to existing windows paritition ) on free space available
[17:14] <office3> BarkingFish: gnome I think
[17:15] <RaTTuS> ok ... time for cake and beer - I may be sometime ....
[17:15] <kvijayeddy10> RaTTuS: after that can i see windows paritition and vmdk file or not later ?
[17:15] <Goeland86> sipior, do you think there's any danger if I use windows 7 tools from another partition to recover it?
[17:15] <sipior> siavoshkc: the point is, you've already done a great deal of writing to a formatted partition. that horse has left the barn.
[17:15] <Goeland86> I'm flat out of options otherwise
[17:15] <BarkingFish> right, office3 - try pressing CTRL, ALT & F1 at the same time, and see if you get a terminal pop up
[17:15] <bolo56> hail !! people of this channel !
[17:15] <sipior> Goeland86: don't see why there would be.
[17:15] <jiffe98> there anyway of determining what is driving the load on a machine
[17:15] <jiffe98> I'm not seeing anything that looks heavier than normal
[17:15] <victor__> Hello, I have som problems with my 3 mobile broadband. It's the huwai e122. It connects and works for an hour or so, then it starts acting real strange, not loading sites etc. And If I just stay connected, after li 30 mins it starts working again. Any ideas?
[17:16] <Goeland86> sipior, thanks. I'll give that a shot. I'll bug you if I run into anymore trouble
[17:16] <sipior> Goeland86: i don't see the problem getting any worse, at any rate :-)
[17:16] <ActionParsnip> victor__: when it misbehaves, run:  dmesg | tail     it may give clues
[17:16] <mainecoon> CAN ANYONE RUNNING UBUNTU 11.10 PLEASE TRY TO: open "xfce4-terminal", type "w", and tell me if u see yourself..and then repeat with "xterm" PLEASE
[17:16] <kvijayeddy10> RaTTuS: my only concern is to save my ass of re-putting large file vmdk ( of size 269gb) onto 320gb hdd ...it takes 4hrs of time
[17:16] <puff> mainecoon: Are you still on that?
[17:16] <jiffe98> sitting around 50% idle, still a good amount of memory open
[17:16] <victor__> Alright, I will try that and see if I can connect again
[17:16] <jiffe98> disk io doens't seem bad
[17:17] <BarkingFish> victor__: you may be having network issues, 3 is pretty congested sometimes - you may want to perform a manual roam (look for a better network signal) and try again.
[17:17] <office3> BarkingFish: I can't get a terminal to pop up
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> mainecoon: try in #xubuntu too, they will more than likely have xfce4-terminal
[17:17] <mainecoon> puff Yeah cause what u sent talks about a LightDM issue
[17:17] <yeehaw> jiff98: ps auxf and see what's being used?
[17:17] <BarkingFish> what are you on now, office3?
[17:17] <BarkingFish> As in, how are you connected to us?
[17:17] <puff> mainecoon: Yes?
[17:17] <office3> BarkingFish: I'm on another computer nearby
[17:17] <victor__> But is the same here at work as it is at home, I google search told me it might have to be with the dhcp leasing?
[17:17] <puff> mainecoon: It might be useful, then, for you to google on something like  "what is lightdm"
[17:18] <bolo56> which time is christmas in the U.S ?
[17:18] <victor__> That when the ip is renevewed it doesnt catch ip
[17:18] <BarkingFish> llutz: Display blanked in a DM, if you switch out to a TTY, it should still come up, right?
[17:18] <puff> mainecoon: Also, I should point out that you're using xfce because you're using xubuntu-desktop, so #xubuntu might be more helpful.
[17:18] <mainecoon> puff I tried
[17:18] <BarkingFish> unless you get to a TTY a different way to us :)
[17:18] <_Marcus> So I did "sudo chown -R user:group /directory" and the user can still access files in /var and such
[17:19] <puff> mainecoon: lightDM is a display manager (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM).  It's sort of the underpinnings of the GUI.
[17:19] <_Marcus> And I created the group already
[17:19] <puff> mainecoon: So your windowmanager runs on X and X is managed by lightDM.
[17:19] <mainecoon> puff So when I launch xfce4-terminal, LightDM is affected, and xterm doesn't affect LightDM?
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> !away > seanr|away
[17:19] <mainecoon> puff Right
[17:20] <TREllis> 30
[17:20] <mainecoon> puff But under this very same environment, two terminal clients are behaving differently
[17:20] <puff> mainecoon: Because lightDM runs X and the display manager, when you to go login, you're actually talking to lightDM, and then lightDM starts up X and Unity (or in your case, XFCE).
[17:20] <SunTsu> _Marcus: you would need to take away rights on /var - but I advise to not to do that, given your level of knowledge you might severely damage your system
[17:21] <llutz> _Marcus: you want to chroot ftp-users to a dir
[17:21] <puff> mainecoon: Ergo, housekeeping related to your X login is done by lightDM.  Part of that housekeeping is that lightDM is supposed to udpate utmp, but apparently it doesn't.  utmp is where who/w looks to see who's logged in.
[17:21] <_Marcus> SunTsu: No, it's not just /var, it's all the directories besides the one I want it to only access. It can still access the one I want it to only access, but it can also access all the other ones
[17:21] <kvijayeddy10> RaTTuS:  can u clear this to me ?
[17:21] <puff> mainecoon: Obviously one terminal does update utmp, the other doesn't.
[17:21] <SunTsu> _Marcus: what llutz just said, you basically are looking for a chroot() setup
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> !rootirc > Guest25338
[17:21] <_Marcus> Ok
[17:22] <llutz> _Marcus: even better, you don't want to use ftp at all :)
[17:22] <SunTsu> _Marcus: chroot restricts users to a single directory tree
[17:22] <SunTsu> llutz: even more true
[17:22] <puff> mainecoon: see  https://lists.launchpad.net/desktop-packages/msg32679.html and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-terminal/+bug/861388
[17:23] <kvijayeddy10> RaTTuS: incase i could put ubuntu on 51gb and see remaining ntfs parition  having large vmdk file, can i change ntfs parition  to ubuntu's parition without losing files ?? i mean merging of two paritions of different partitions to ubuntu wihtout losing ntfs parition files
[17:23] <mainecoon> puff Thanks for the leads again! Going to do more research now on this issue
[17:23] <puff> mainecoon: Any way you slice it, it's because of a bug. It doesn't seem to be a showstopper.
[17:24] <puff> I really wish I understood all of this login manager, window manager, etc stuff, better.
[17:24] <mainecoon> puff Well it seems to be a potential security issue, and I wanted to pursue it to better understand the whole reporting mechanism
[17:25] <Osmodivs> Hello. I want to lear C++, so I installed GTK+3.  All I didi is the classic ./configure make and make install, but I do not know where the "executable" is. I know there is a way to set a path in ./configure --prefix, But I do not know how to. I want GTK+3 to be in my Menu>Programming. How do I do that? In the GTK's web page says I need to do this:  ./configure --prefix=/opt/gtk  But I do not even know what path is that for
[17:26] <ActionParsnip> puff: it's layers really, simple stuff
[17:26] <office3> so I still can't get my computer to come out of suspend or get a terminal
[17:26] <ActionParsnip> office3: does CTRL+ALT+F1 work?
[17:31] <BarkingFish> ActionParsnip: I tried that with him - that was my first thought, drop to a tty and restart the dm :)
[17:31] <gardenfox> does anyone know where i can find vmware player 4 for ubuntu?
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> BarkingFish: fo sho
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> !vmware
[17:32] <SunTsu> Osmodivs: why on earth don't you just take ubuntu's gtk?
[17:32] <BarkingFish> ActionParsnip: seems a bit odd that DPMS doesn't bring the monitor back to a display.
[17:32] <Osmodivs> SunTsu: Well, GTK+3 is the newest,
[17:33] <dr_willis> if you are just learning C++ shouldent you be learning like.. helloworld and other beginner stuff ?
[17:33] <SunTsu> Osmodivs: which you of course are in serious need of when trying to learn C++, I see
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> BarkingFish: suspend is a pain if it doesn't work OOTB
[17:33] <Osmodivs> SunTsu: And, How do I run GTK from the Terminal?
[17:33] <office3> ActionParsnip: sorry, no, CTRL+ALT+F1 doesn't work
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> office3: is it a laptop?
[17:33] <SunTsu> Osmodivs: you don't run gtk, it's a likrary
[17:33] <dr_willis> Osmodivs:  gtk is not a program. its a set of libraries...
[17:33] <SunTsu> library even
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> SunTsu: it's a toolkit (hence the name ;))
[17:34] <dr_willis> !compile > Osmodivs
[17:34] <office3> ActionParsnip: yes it is a laptop
[17:34] <SunTsu> Osmodivs: maybe you might want to get a grasp of what you are doing before trying that?
[17:34] <dr_willis> Osmodivs:  do you have any programing experience at all?
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> office3: what make and model?
[17:34] <SunTsu> ActionParsnip: That answer would have resulted in me explaining what a toolkit is
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> SunTsu: I guess
[17:34] <Osmodivs> dr_willis: Zero, but the GTK+3 website mekes it look easy
[17:35] <Osmodivs> and fun
[17:35] <SunTsu> ActionParsnip: therefore: "library" - it's true none the less and more people know what that might be
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> Osmodivs: have a try :)
[17:35] <dr_willis> Osmodivs:  I think you need to start with somthing smaller...  perhaps even learn python first..
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> SunTsu: easier to explain is always useful
[17:35] <office3> Dell 1580
[17:36] <office3> studio
[17:36] <Osmodivs> dr_willis: But C++ is the must learn language... Ok. So I thought GTK+3 was a GUI taht let you type commands of IF, GO TO and stuff and then run them there
[17:37] <SunTsu> Osmodivs: no, gtk lets you build a gui for your own program, it gives you the programming tools
[17:38] <ninjix> anyone running squid-deb-proxy?
[17:38] <ninjix> having a problem with hash sum mismatch errors
[17:38] <yeehaw> Osmodivs: I think you mean a terminal :P
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> office3: is "dell 1580" the full model name?
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> office3: sure it's not a lattitude or an inspiron or somesuch?
[17:40] <office3> sorry studio 1558 I think...
[17:40] <office3> let me look up my email invoice
[17:41] <Osmodivs> Well, I thought I needed GTK+3 because I was following a tutorial and all I could get was this: ./c: line 1: //: Is a directory  ./c: line 2: //: Is a directory  ./c: line 3: //: Is a directory  ./c: line 4: syntax error near unexpected token `('./c: line 4: `// Fahrenheit = Celsius * (212 - 32)/100 + 32'
[17:41] <seanr> ubottu, sorry, linkinus was doing that automatically.  Turned it off. :-)
[17:41] <Osmodivs> i thought bash could not read C++
[17:41] <SunTsu> Osmodivs: er, you were pasting c++ to the shell?
[17:41] <DemonWitch> i installed gnome-shell package but when i run gnome from login i got graphic problems on the shell. what can i do?
[17:41] <yeehaw> Osmodivs: gcc file.c -o program
[17:42] <Osmodivs> SunTsu: No, it is a txt file
[17:42] <Donovan> I am running Ubuntu 11.10 and need a plug& Play wireless adapter can anyone suggest one?
[17:42] <spajderix> hi
[17:42] <SunTsu> Osmodivs: please, grab yourself a beginner's book about development on unix systems
[17:42] <yeehaw> SunTsu: What doe the file contain? Put it in pastebin or sumthing
[17:42] <dr_willis> Osmodivs:  i think you need to  follow what SunTsu  said.. :)
[17:42] <spajderix> does any one of you have a problem connecting to facebookchat from pidgin?
[17:42] <yeehaw> Err i Meant Osmodivs
[17:42] <Osmodivs> SunTsu: Actually, I was following the tutorial from "C++ for dummies"
[17:43] <dr_willis> Osmodivs:  personally i would start with python. Jumping into  C++ with NO programing experiance at all.. will be.. difficult.
[17:43] <llutz> Osmodivs: you want to join ##c++
[17:43] <Osmodivs> But it s Windows oriented
[17:43] <SunTsu> Osmodivs: which probably is written for windows dummies ;)
[17:43] <dr_willis> Dummines and for Idiots books.. are often not worth the Money.
[17:43] <dr_willis> :)
[17:43] <ActionParsnip> office3: try pressing the switch to monitor key a few times til it switches, may make it wake up
[17:43] <yeehaw> Orsmodivs: The head first books are pretty awesome, if you just want to start out
[17:43] <Donovan> I am running Ubuntu 11.10 and need a plug& Play wireless adapter can anyone suggest one?

[17:57] <Yanch0> can't i save the pasword in some file ? i basically want it to start the connection straight away
[17:57] <sipior> Yanch0: have a look at the man page for "interfaces"; also "man 7 wireless" and "man 8 iwconfig".
[17:57] <yeehaw> Fachex: do you see that card if you type iwconfig?
[17:57] <fachex> it is not wireless
[17:57] <fachex> i see it on the lspci
[17:58] <fachex> but not on the ifconfig
[17:58] <yeehaw> lol, I overlooked that
[17:58] <fachex> it should have been detected
[17:58] <Exxon> Yanch0, that what i said once you connect with the password there is no need to reconnect hte AP
[17:58] <fachex> I never have problem with NIC
[17:58] <fachex> this is the first time
[17:58] <Matt040804> What is the significance of the white triangles/arrows in the chat menu?
[17:58] <Yanch0> Exxon, yes but ocne set up i wont have physical access to the machine nymore
[17:59] <OerHeks> fachex, it should be recognised >> http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog/component/pci:1659:14E4-NETWORK
[17:59] <Matt040804> By which I mean the mail-icon on the top of the screen. Does it show that the program is open, or connected, or something else?
[17:59] <OerHeks> fachex, check the cable ?
[17:59] <Exxon> Yaanch0 wireless or wired
[17:59] <fachex> it does not say anything
[17:59] <fachex> ., I already google
[17:59] <DemonWitch> I installed gnome-shell package but when i login using it i got graphic problems. what is this?

[18:00] <ActionParsnip> fachex: lspci just diaplys the identifier of the device, it doesn't mean its working
[18:00] <fachex> ok
[18:00] <fachex> it is not working
[18:00] <fachex> hehe
[18:00] <fachex> but before I did not even see it there
[18:01]  * conntrack yawns
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> Matt040804: its just a python script, it talks to evolution, thunderbird etc, you can configure it for other stuff
[18:01] <fachex> so, what's next?
[18:01] <yeehaw> Fachex: modprobe the driver if you can find it?
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> fachex: run:  sudo lshw -C network       use the product line to find guides
[18:01] <shovell> hey i have a toshiba satellite and i cant get touchpad drivers help!
[18:01] <fachex> help me with modprobe yeehaw
[18:02] <yeehaw> do you know what driver it is/
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> shovell: which satellite?
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> shovell: does it work any?
[18:02] <office3> ActionParsnip: should I just reboot?
[18:02] <Yanch0> ouch - the problem is worst than at first tought - i followed this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Netgear_WG311_v3 but its not loading the module - have to manually write it myself
[18:03] <fachex> no, I don't yeehaw
[18:03] <Exxon> yeehaw, lspci -v     paste the output to www.pastebin.org
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> office3: I would
[18:03] <fachex> I mean it is the broadcome BVM5721
[18:03] <yeehaw> fachex: I'll be back in 30 minutes, got to get out off the bus now.
[18:03] <fachex> ok
[18:03] <shovell> ActionParsnip:  c655d-s5126 yes it works it just is not recognizing it as a touchpad
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> Yanch0: add the module name in the file /etc/modules  and it will load at boot
[18:04] <fachex> hey ActionParsnip, I did the sudo lshw 'C network
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> shovell: just because hardware is recognised as something doesn't mean it will work
[18:04] <fachex> now what?
[18:04] <mutes> http://www.humblebundle.com/
[18:04] <mutes> scroll to the linux part

[18:04] <shovell> ActionParsnip:  ???what???
[18:04] <Exxon> fachex, can you pin point the module of the broadcom as its default and can run normally
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> fachex: use the model line to find guides
[18:05] <fachex> Exxon, how do I do that?
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> shovell: all your hardware will tell you what it is, doesn't mean its going to run as expected
[18:05] <Matt040804> ActionParsnip: I just don't understand why they sometimes have white triangles next to the programs, and sometimes not
[18:05] <fachex> the driver is tg3
[18:05] <Exxon> fachex, just paste bin lspci -v
[18:06] <fachex> driver=tg3
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> Matt040804: white triangles where?
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> fachex: then run:  echo "tg3" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules

[18:06] <psingh> Hello.  I am using MonoDevelop 2.4 on Ubuntu 11.04. How can I get GTK libraries when I create a Vala Solution in MonoDevelop?  (I tried the #vala and #monodevelop channels, but did not get an answer.  Thought someone here might know the answer.)
[18:06] <shovell> ActionParsnip: i know that.... i cant find a hardware list where i might be able to fix this
[18:07] <rodemire> Hi guys, can someone please help me with config files?
[18:07] <Matt040804> ActionParsnip: Sometimes the "chat" entry has a white arrow/triangle pointing to it, and other times it doesn't. Does it indicate that the program is open or something?
[18:07] <rodemire>  I installed an app called 'tourney-manager', i started it and it gives me an error 'Cannot open example.conf: No such file or directory'
[18:07] <rodemire> Its a game, how can i resolve this?
[18:07] <compdoc> rodemire, theres millions of config files
[18:08] <fachex> I did that ActionParsnip, now what?
[18:08] <rodemire> @compdoc: I installed an app called 'tourney-manager', i started it and it gives me an error 'Cannot open example.conf: No such file or directory'. Its a game, how can i resolve this?
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> shovell: can you expand the question please
[18:08] <Indiana> A
[18:09] <MonkeyDust> B
[18:09] <seidos> rodemire: i dunno, but you could try running the program from a terminal to see if you can locate the example.conf file and where it needs to be
[18:10] <shovell> ActionParsnip:  in windows there is a hardware manager  i am running ubuntu 10.10 and i remember i found something similar in 9.04 i think
[18:10] <Yanch0> ActionParsnip, that fixed it :) that tutorial says ubuntu 8.04 - strange :S but adding ndiswrapper as a module got it working - many thanks :)
[18:10] <compdoc> rodemire, dont know that game, or where to find an example conf for it
[18:11] <shovell> ActionParsnip:  bottom line my mouse is recognized as a regular mouse not a touchpad
[18:11] <conntrack> pff
[18:11] <rodemire> @seidos: tourney-manager runs from the terminal, it doesnt give me the directory where it wants the .conf to be, thats where i hit a brick wall. I tried everywhere, from my /home directory, the /usr/share/tourney-manager directory but it still gives me the same error.
[18:11] <Exxon> why the ppl want to troll the session..
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> shovell: ok, let me search, see what toshes need to make touchpads work
[18:12] <MonkeyDust> shovell  in synaptic or in terminal, search gpoint
[18:13] <shovell> ActionParsnip:  thank you
[18:13] <fachex> ActionParsnip i did the echo "tg3".... and now?
[18:13] <rodemire> @compdoc: The example.conf comes with the game in /usr/share/doc/tourney-manager/ its to use as an example for creating your own .conf files.
[18:13] <MonkeyDust> gpointing-device-settings - configuration tool for pointing devices
[18:14] <compdoc> rodemire, sounds reasonable
[18:14] <shovell> MonkeyDust: looking
[18:14] <rodemire> @compdoc: lol. Where do most game .conf files go?
[18:14] <yeehaw> fachex: back, hows it going
[18:15] <fachex> same yeehaw
[18:15] <fachex> I am testing the cable
[18:15] <fachex> because it is detected
[18:15] <fachex> so..
[18:15] <yeehaw> Don't bother, if you don't see it in ifconfig
[18:15] <yeehaw> It's not about the cable
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> shovell: press Fn+F9   does it now work...
[18:16] <fachex> I see it now
[18:16] <compdoc> rodemire, I dont have any games. if it doesnt go in /etc/ somewhere, I have no idea. Not in the same folder as the game?
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> shovell: your system probably has a shortcut combo to disable touchpad, press it
[18:16] <shovell> not what i mean i want to turn off the tap to click function
[18:16] <fachex> hmmm
[18:16] <fachex> it could be the cable
[18:16] <fachex> let's see
[18:16] <yeehaw> fachex: try ifconfig eth0 up
[18:16] <fachex> ok
[18:16] <MonkeyDust> shovell  did you find gpointing-device?
[18:17] <yeehaw> or what the name of the device is
[18:17] <yeehaw> off course
[18:17] <shovell> MonkeyDust:  yes
[18:17] <fachex> broadcom
[18:17] <rodemire> @compdoc: I tried that and it still didnt change the eror. #sigh I'll keep on trying all the folders i can think of. Thanks.
[18:17] <fachex> driver=tg3
[18:17] <MonkeyDust> shovell  is it useful for you
[18:17] <Exxon> channel operator !!!
[18:18] <compdoc> rodemire, maybe you just have to rename example.cong to the right name
[18:18] <yeehaw> fachex: What does ifconfig give? eth0 or eth1?
[18:18] <compdoc> *conf
[18:18] <fachex> yes
[18:18] <fachex> eth0
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> shovell: its in the mouse options, search in dash
[18:18] <yeehaw> Does anything change if you do ifconfig eth0 up?
[18:18] <fachex> give me a second yeehaw, it looks like it is the cable
[18:19] <shovell> MonkeyDust:  not really but it does tell me that it sees my toushpad as a logitech ps2 mouse
[18:19] <yeehaw> fachex: If that isn't it, try: dhclient eth0

[18:21] <bcuraboy> hi everyone
[18:21] <ActionParsnip> shovell: or try the boot option: acpi=copy_dsdt
[18:21] <xirosch> Hello. I built metapackages with a lot of dependencies. Installation works fine, but when I add some packages in the dependency list and increase the version number only a full-upgrade seems to install additional packages. aptitude safe-upgrade  --safe-resolver --allow-new-upgrades --allow-new-installs does not. Any hints for me why?
[18:22] <bcuraboy> i would like to create a windows 7 image on a usb with ubuntu 11.10
[18:22] <bcuraboy> which program let me do that?
[18:22] <shovell> ActionParsnip:  is there a way i can tell it that it is not a logitech ps2 mouse but really a touchpad?
[18:23] <ActionParsnip> shovell: Ive seen this a few times, if you formulate an xorg.conf you can explicitly tell it
[18:24] <shovell> ActionParsnip:  uhhhh hmm still kinda a noob here
[18:24] <hydester> anybody have suggestions on how to do security updates on lucid via CD?  i've looked at reprepro, but kernel updates were missing dependencies.  perhaps there is a more straightforward way somebody can suggest?
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> shovell: searching will show you examples
[18:25] <bcuraboy> i would like to create a windows 7 image on a usb with ubuntu 11.10
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> hydester: try:  sudo apt-get -f install
[18:25] <fachex> bye all
[18:25] <bolo56> how to disable " switch user " ?
[18:26] <yeehaw> bolo56: Why would you do that?
[18:26] <bolo56> server installatin
[18:26] <bolo56> not a desktop
[18:27] <bolo56> how to stop another session from starting up ?
[18:27] <MonkeyDust> bcuraboy  windows has winbuilder, i don't think it's possible with ubuntu
[18:28] <yeehaw> bolo56: But.. You might want seperate user for seperate services I'd imagine
[18:28] <bcuraboy> someone just told me about unetbootin
[18:28] <bcuraboy> how about that?
[18:29] <bosman> c
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> bcuraboy: it won't cater to Windows, have you asked in ##windows
[18:30] <MonkeyDust> bcuraboy  unetbootin needs an iso
[18:30] <bcuraboy> and i have it ;)
[18:31] <greenpuddin> quick question; anyone know how to make a fat32 partition mount at startup in ubuntu 10.04?
[18:31] <bcuraboy> yes i've asked in windows,that's where they told me about unetbootin
[18:32] <Wiz_KeeD> anyone know why i cannot open a .odt file with libreoffice in ubuntu 10.4 even though i am part of the group that the file is created from and i have rw permissions on it?
[18:32] <Wiz_KeeD> i mean it's readonly
[18:32] <Wiz_KeeD> i cannot edit it
[18:32] <greenpuddin> did you right click the file and make sure that libreoffice is the default program to open from?
[18:32] <greenpuddin> wait you are talking about permissions
[18:32] <greenpuddin> sorry
[18:32] <ActionParsnip> greenpuddin: you can add it in /etc/fstab
[18:32] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> http://l337stuff.blogspot.com/p/irc.html
[18:33] <Wiz_KeeD> i can edit it apparently with some other editor what the hell
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> Wiz_KeeD: if you make yourself the owner (to test) is it ok?
[18:35] <omaru> my ubuntu machine is making a weird noise its sounds something like WHOOMMPPP WHOOMPPPP WHOOOMMMPPP
[18:36] <omaru> do you think it has anything to do with me playing PHAT BASSSSS on Bansheee
[18:36] <hydester> ActionParsnip: what i am trying to do is an "apt-get dist-upgrade" or "aptitude full-upgrade" via proxy (CD on disconnected machine).
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> omaru: are the fans clean? Is the drive healthy
[18:37] <Kamiyl> Hello
[18:38] <arky> How do I format a thumb drive with ubuntu?
[18:38] <phschwartz> Hi all, if I wanted to add a cron that runs friday -> monday can I do it as 5-1 or do I have to do 5-7,1 or 1,5-7?
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> arky: use gparted
[18:39] <arky> ActionParsnip, I've been trying.  It declares the need for a new partition table, but doesn't actually install one.
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> arky: exactly, so make a partition table and you are ready to rock
[18:40] <omaru> i think i got a malware on my ubuntu
[18:40] <iceroot> phschwartz: man 5 crontab
[18:40] <arky> omaru, if you did, you just about had to install it yourself.
[18:40] <iceroot> phschwartz: and 1,5-7 sounds correct from the syntax
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> omaru: unlikely
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> omaru: what symptoms do you have?
[18:42] <luist> hey guys... im trying to run gpg --key-gen but its taking too long. i've used a lot the disk, the keyboard and such but nothing happens... any idea??
[18:42] <phschwartz> iceroot: That is what I thought from the man page, I was just wondering if I could also do it the other way 5-1 instead of having to use a list.
[18:42] <iceroot> phschwartz: no
[18:43] <SunTsu> luist: what key size do you use and what do you call "too long"?
[18:43] <iceroot> phschwartz: only from lower values to higher values
[18:43] <hanasaki> how / where do you set the MESSAGE_SIZE_LIMIT to true in exim4 with split config files?
[18:43] <luist> SunTsu, half an hour? i set they keysize for 1024
[18:44] <SunTsu> luist: that should end in a reasonable time, 30 minutes is insane
[18:44] <phschwartz> iceroot: ty
[18:45] <arky> ActionParsnip, I figured it out.  had to unmount the thing from terminal.
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> arky: nice, yeah you can't format a partition/device with mounted things on. Suprised gparted didn't offer that to you
[18:47] <arky> ActionParsnip, likewise.  and I didn't want to try to do it from the launcher, nautilus, or pcmanfm.
[18:48] <omaru> yup i got malware everytime i send an email it sends weird links
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> arky: gparted has the option if you right click a partition
[18:48] <KL> question on color prompt. The default blue color and black background is difficult to read on my screen. How do I change it? It appears in vi with comment text. ie. #xxxxx
[18:49] <omaru> must have been from all the tweaks i tried
[18:49] <pazitka> Hi. I have terminal emulator "Terminator". I want to use layout (subwindows - Vim, g++, execution). How can I save such session so I can run it instantly ?
[18:50] <ActionParsnip> KL: in gnome-terminal?
[18:50] <ActionParsnip> oh
[18:50] <KL> i ssh into the server
[18:51] <KL> bash
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> KL: do you SSH via putty or just terminal?
[18:51] <KL> putty
[18:52] <arky> ActionParsnip, Yes, but it was blacked out.  the drive had a persistent openSUSE 12.1 Gnome 3 install on it.
[18:52] <Darkman> hi there
[18:53] <KL> ActionParsnip: the other colors are fine. Just the #xxx text in a file are hard to read.
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> KL: http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/0.53b/htmldoc/Chapter4.html#4.12
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> KL: So if you are like me, go to Category: Window > Colours and select ANSI Blue in the Select a colour to adjust to Red:74 Green:74 Blue:255. I do the same for ANSI Blue Bold to Red:140 Green:140 Blue:255.
[18:54] <ActionParsnip> KL: http://dag.wieers.com/blog/improving-putty-settings-on-windows
[18:54] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> I want someone to do me a favour.
[18:54] <Eighteens> hi
[18:54] <Darkman> i'm having an issue using nfs mountpoints in fstab at boot time on lucid lts, it always fails because it looks like the nfs mount is done way to early. I found a couple of bugs in the bugtrack but no real solution - anyone knows about it?
[18:54] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> I want someone to give me regular privileges on their *nix box so I can test my SSH tunnelling.
[18:55] <SMJ> Why is Ubuntu still using libpng 1.2.x?
[18:55] <Pici> KL: change your vim colorscheme?
[18:55] <Eighteens> question, when i curl localhost OPTIONS it returns something way different than i expected, can someone have a look. http://paste.ubuntu.com/770353/
[18:57] <Pici> SMJ: What would you have expected us to use? 1.5? thats only in debian experimental at the moment.
[18:58] <KL> ActionParsnip: Pici: Thank you. http://dag.wieers.com/blog/improving-putty-settings-on-windows this did the trick...I was able to set a lighter blue color. Now, more readable on putty.
[18:59] <llutz> Pengu1n_Phr0zen: "ssh grex.org"
[18:59] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> llutz, WTF?
[18:59] <Pengu1n_Phr0zen> llutz, Are you in my box because that's exactly where I'm at ATM.
[19:00] <helly__> Help! ..
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> !help | helly__
[19:00] <helly__> I cant connect to my new ubuntu server from the outside. The ports are open in the router
[19:00] <helly__> I've even added the ports to iptables
[19:01] <ActionParsnip> helly__: have you tried rebooting your router (and modem if needed)
[19:01] <helly__> What is the command to view incomming connections (blocked ones)
[19:01] <omaru> is someone hacking us on the ubuntu channel??
[19:01] <Pici> omaru: Why do you ask?
[19:01] <helly__> ActionParsnip: No, there is no need. If I change the IP to my Windows computer I can connect to that port.
[19:01] <KL> does anyone have experience with setting up virtualization with kvm?
[19:01] <ActionParsnip> helly__: can you connect to the service over LAN (from a different PC)?
[19:01] <helly__> ActionParsnip: yes
[19:02] <ActionParsnip> !kvm
[19:02] <omaru> all of the ip's
[19:02] <ActionParsnip> helly__: I suggest you check your router, a reboot may be useful. A lot of home grade things need rebooting to get them to play nice
[19:02] <iranian> Good day , wana use sartuo disk creator but .iso file  does not attach in it , why
[19:02] <MonkeyDust> omaru  what is your real question
[19:03] <iceroot> omaru: what does an ip has to do with hacking?
[19:03] <office3> should I sudo apt-get install laptop-mode-tools  on my laptop?
[19:03] <ActionParsnip> iranian: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[19:03] <helly__> ActionParsnip: I'll give it a go. But there is no need for that. It worked well before I reinstalled my server from 10.04 to 11.10
[19:03] <iranian> ActionParsnip: it's ok
[19:03] <omaru> well its our internet address
[19:04] <ActionParsnip> iranian: try unetbootin
[19:04] <iceroot> omaru: i guess its a good idea to do some reading what "hacking" means
[19:04] <Pici> omaru: If you're concerned you can ask for a cloak in #freenode, but its not a foolproof method of hiding your ip. also, your ip is 'exposed' to any website you visit, so its shouldn't really concern you.
[19:04] <helly__> ActionParsnip: How can I test if it's possible to connect to the server from the outside?
[19:05] <omaru> visiting youtube doesnt concern me, or checking gmail. but this is where the smart guys are
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> helly__: http://www.canyouseeme.org/
[19:05] <megan> help
[19:05] <hjanns> Hello.
[19:05] <Pici> !cloak | omaru
[19:06] <Guest94756> hello
[19:06] <hjanns> Why is 10.10 the latest version on http://www.ubunut.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download? What happened to 11.04 and 11.10?
[19:06] <helly__> Yes, the ports are open. But still When I try to connect to that port, I get a timeout.. I need to see on the ubuntu machine if my connection is coming through
[19:07] <SunTsu> hjanns: ubunut.com?
[19:07] <MonkeyDust> hjanns  download them from elsewhere
[19:07] <Guest94756> tekrar dene olmadÄą format atarÄąz olmadÄą kasayÄą ters Ã§evir tekrar dene
[19:07] <Pici> hjanns: likely there is something wrong with that url forwarding.  I'll talk to a Canonical person about it.  but use http://ubuntu.com in the meantime.

[19:08] <benbloom> can someone help me check my flashplugin status? I think i'm not running the 64b but i'd like to make sure and fix it if so
[19:08] <hjanns> Oh! I made a typo!
[19:08] <iranian> ActionParsnip: tanx seems working
[19:08] <ActionParsnip> benbloom: can you give a pastebin of the output of:  lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark'
[19:09] <ActionParsnip> iranian: sweet
[19:09] <hjanns> Now I have a new question! What is http://www.ubunut.com/ and why does it looks like http://www.ubuntu.com? :-)
[19:09] <omaru> im gonna go set up an ftp server and hack my victims now bye
[19:09] <Pici> hjanns: It should forward to ubuntu.com, but it doesnt. I'm filing a bug about it right now.
[19:09] <llutz> hjanns: forwards to ubuntu.com
[19:09] <hydester> do kernel security updates ever have the ubuntuX suffix?
[19:10] <hjanns> llutz: If there is a forward, it doesn't work for me.
[19:11] <helly__> I just don't fracking understad this. I can ssh into the box. But I can't access it via another port, like 1000
[19:11] <helly__> What am I missing here?
[19:11] <hjanns> helly__: iptable?
[19:11] <llutz> hjanns: both resolve to the same IP and ubunut.com redirects here to ubuntu.com fine
[19:11] <benbloom> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/Ra08sMeG
[19:12] <helly__> hjanns:  I've added the ports. But I havent any from / to IP..
[19:13] <Pici> llutz: They both don't resolve to the same IP here. 91.189.94.158 vs 91.189.94.156
[19:13] <hjanns> Why is the 32-bit version of Ubuntu recommended? Is the 64-bit version also stable?
[19:13] <xroot> hi guys , i use ubuntu 10.04 , the wireless not working any help
[19:13] <llutz> Pici: www.ubuntu.com has address 91.189.89.88  - www.ubunut.com has address 91.189.89.88
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> benbloom: 32bit flash on 64bit OS
[19:14] <Pici> llutz: even worse. www.ubunut.com says 11.04, ubunut.com says 10.10

[19:34] <Exxon> skegeek, if how on ram like 512mb swap is activated..so if you can increase the ram to 2gb atleast there is no need for swap
[19:34] <xroot> urlin2u,okay
[19:34] <urlin2u> xroot, this is not a area of expertise for me but others on know this stuff. :D
[19:35] <xroot> urlin2u,thanks anyway

[19:38] <osse> I've modified
[19:38] <Exxon> skegeek, then there is no need for swap at all swap is only for if; mem low and so that the swap can use the hdd for the purpouse..temp files
[19:39] <skegeek> Could the freezing have anything to do with it being a Wubi install?
[19:42] <urlin2u> skegeek, when it freezes do you have a lot of apps open?
[19:42] <cnz> I just rebooted and now that I have rebooted I cannot access my windows partition, cdrom, or any usb ports any ideas?
[19:43] <skegeek> It froze on me twice already within 5 minutes of booting, without ANY apps up at all.
[19:43] <urlin2u> cnz, any background to that reboot?
[19:44] <cnz> urlin2u: nothing other than rebooted into windows to use odin really quick
[19:44] <qmanjr5> If I have multiple people logged into my computer at the same time, my sound doesn't work on my account. How do I fix this, or why does it do this?
[19:44] <qmanjr5> BluesKaj, oops, didn't see you responded. Thanks.
[19:44] <qmanjr5> But it's only when other people are logged on.
[19:45] <BluesKaj> skegeek, make sure you've allowed enough diskspace for the wubi install
[19:45] <skegeek> 18G
[19:45] <urlin2u> cnz, boot ubuntu and run sudo update-grub  you describe not getting to windows is this true?
[19:45] <cnz> no
[19:46] <cnz> that is not what I described
[19:46] <skegeek> The default was 18G, so that's what I gave it.
[19:46] <cnz> i can boot into windows just fine
[19:46] <qmanjr5> BluesKaj, adding myself to the audio group didn't do anything.
[19:46] <Arsonide> I reformatted my netbook with Ubuntu and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get wifi working. I have Googled and tried all those solutions and now I'm just kind of flailing about in the synaptic manager uselessly.
[19:46] <cnz> but after I rebooted into windows and booted back into ubuntu i can no longer access any usb ports, cdroms, or any other partitions on the drive.
[19:46] <urlin2u> cnz, I just rebooted and now that I have rebooted """I cannot access my windows partition"""cdrom, or any usb ports any ideas?  It isn't
[19:47] <BluesKaj> skegeek, that should be plenty
[19:47] <Arsonide> Most of the solutions tell me to go to Hardware Drivers and activate a broadcom sta driver, but that list is blank and says "No Proprietary Drivers Found"
[19:47] <urlin2u> cnz, be accurate please.
[19:47] <cnz> how can I be more accurate?
[19:47] <Exxon> skegeek, with that free space you can install wubi with ease.
[19:47] <BluesKaj> qm is the sound working for others then ?
[19:47] <qmanjr5> Cnz's problem is very very simple, he cannot access any other partitions.
[19:47] <BluesKaj> qmanjr5,^
[19:48] <qmanjr5> BluesKaj, I believe so. I'll check.
[19:48] <urlin2u> cnz, you said you could not access your windows partition but left out from ubuntu if that is the case.  Is it a wubi install?
[19:48] <cnz> no
[19:48] <cnz> and no I didn't leave that out
[19:48] <Arsonide> anybody have any tips?
[19:48] <cnz> i said when I booted back into ubuntu
[19:49] <cnz> anyways, ubuntu is on one partition windows is on another
[19:49] <qmanjr5> cnz, maybe you have to mount it? I'm not sure.
[19:49] <qmanjr5> BluesKaj, it works not that I've logged back in. Odd.
[19:49] <cnz> qmanjr5: it was auto mounting before
[19:49] <qmanjr5> Maybe something messed up.
[19:49] <qmanjr5> Just a suggestion.
[19:49] <necromancer> hey guys, why won't SoX recognize the libraries i installed via APT?
[19:49] <cnz> i an't even access my thumb drives now either though
[19:49] <urlin2u> cnz, you have to realize that that was way into the conversation and seconds apart from my post.
[19:50] <Exxon> with wubi all partitions are pre-mounted ..designed to be that way
[19:50] <urlin2u> cnz, so in other words your auto mounting set up with fstab is not working is this correct?
[19:50] <dany> hi guys can somone help me to install driver for my wirless
[19:50] <necromancer> this is my configure script's file format results: https://gist.github.com/192c88e03a38f281d90a
[19:50] <dany> i uuse ubuntu 10.04
[19:51] <BluesKaj> qmanjr5, usually when editing as root a relogin is in order
[19:51] <cnz> interesting only / and /boot are in fstab
[19:51] <cnz> just wonderful
[19:51] <urlin2u> !fstab
[19:51] <skegeek> Exxon: The Ubuntu I'm using right now was installed via Wubi, but, I wanted to make sure it wasn't any part of the problem.
[19:52] <urlin2u> skegeek, wubi does run slower and kind of chunky to some extent.
[19:52] <dany> My wirless do not work with ubuntu
[19:52] <urlin2u> dany, make sure you post the card

[19:53] <Exxon> skegeek, wubi is for new users if there is any doubt please do tell us
[19:53] <Arsonide> how would I find out my card from within ubuntu
[19:53] <Arsonide> I have the same issue.

[19:56] <dany> no one trying to help me
[19:56] <urlin2u> cnz, lol you might want to actually understand what your doing the info is correct
[19:56] <cnz> oh I understand what im doing, but the info is old
[19:56] <cnz> my system isn't ext2 its ext4
[19:56] <urlin2u> dany, it is hit and miss the help is free you have to be patient
[19:56] <urlin2u> cnz, right.
[19:57] <cnz> for someone jsut reading that and following line by line will mess stuff up
[19:57] <Exxon> dany, can you modprobe the wireless that you have
[19:57] <Arsonide> http://pastebin.com/za3aY8Wa
[19:57] <cnz> by adding ext2 instead of the correct ext
[19:57] <dany> Exxon , guid me , i have no idea about how to do that
[19:57] <dany> plz
[19:58] <Exxon> dany, lspci -v copy the output and paste to www.pastebin.org and copy the link and paste in the session
[19:58] <urlin2u> Exxon, he has a post hold on
[19:59] <Arsonide> Don't see any references to a wifi adapter within mine, although it's got one somewhere.
[19:59] <trism> necromancer: sudo apt-get build-dep sox; that got me a yes for every optional format (just need to track down all the correct -dev packages)
[19:59] <urlin2u> Exxon, here is their card http://paste.ubuntu.com/770408/
[20:00] <cnz> urlin2u: but what would cause my fstab to get messed up if that's what happened?
[20:01] <urlin2u> cnz, usually it is the user messing with it, not sure otherwise, can you click on the windows partition in the home panel and open it.
[20:01] <Exxon> urlin2u, there is no wireless stuff that's what i need..yep post held on..:))
[20:02] <Arsonide> Aha, I believe it's that Atheros
[20:02] <dany> Exxon,http://paste.ubuntu.com/770439/
[20:02] <urlin2u> Exxon, cool :D
[20:02] <cnz> urlin2u: no i can't, it doesn't show up
[20:02] <cnz> and I haven't touched fstab
[20:04] <cnz> urlin2u: I just plugged my phone in and mounted the usb storage and it's not even popping up
[20:04] <urlin2u> cnz, if you had auto mounting of windows that is how its done as far as I know. How did you have it auto mount?
[20:04] <addiks> hi, how can i make my 11.10 desktop not going hibernate itself every 5 minutes?
[20:04] <cnz> and when I open home from the panel nothing is in there
[20:04] <llutz> Arsonide: try "sudo update-pciids" and check again
[20:04] <Exxon> dany, still nothing shows..if its external re-boot and and paste the command given
[20:04] <cnz> urlin2u: it was auto mounting the way ubuntu sets it up
[20:05] <urlin2u> cnz, hmm never heard of that, not sure here really.
[20:05] <cnz> yeah, never seen it happen before
[20:05] <ibqn> how to create an image from the cd?

[20:09] <Exxon> dany, if its a card theni will show ; but the output sow us nothing about the wireless should be external..
[20:09] <Arsonide> Oh I see
[20:09] <Arsonide> So my wifi adapter isn't even a broadcom, even though I've downloaded like six broadcom drivers.
[20:10] <Arsonide> I'll google that and see if any drivers pop up.
[20:10] <Arsonide> Unless I'm blindly heading in the wrong direction.
[20:10] <llutz> dany: : try "sudo update-pciids" and check lspci again
[20:12] <Exxon> Arsonide, can you paste the lspci -v or modeprobe the module
[20:12] <Arsonide> I just pasted lspci -v, not sure what modeprobe is
[20:13] <Exxon> Arsonide, sorry went up in the sky paste it again.. i am with you
[20:13] <Arsonide> Was just installing Linux to practice my lisp coding, I'll be the first to admit I'm clueless with it.
[20:13] <Arsonide> I've found some forum posts about this realtek adapter though that might help

[20:15] <NorthByNorthWest> Hi all! I have a performance issue with problem with Unity...  whenever I drag a window to the edges so that it "autosizes" to halv screen... full screen or so on, the window starts to "freeze" or lag when I start moving it again.... it always starts when using that function and only affects the window beeing autosized....
[20:16] <NorthByNorthWest> Ive googled it but cant really fand a solution to it...
[20:16] <dany> llutz,http://paste.ubuntu.com/770454/
[20:16] <Arsonide> Modprobe appears to have done nothing. It didn't output anything anyway.
[20:16] <llutz> dany: nothing wrong with that,  pastebin lspci   again
[20:16] <Exxon> Arsonide, modprobe  rtl8192ce
[20:16] <Pici> NorthByNorthWest: Are you sure that its not just the 'sticky' window thing?
[20:17] <llutz> Arsonide:  rtl8192ce  seem to be the module you need. not available for your running kernel
[20:17] <llutz> Exxon it doesn't exist
[20:17] <NorthByNorthWest> Pici: ive read about tha toot... is there a solution that I can try?
[20:17] <dany> llutz,http://paste.ubuntu.com/770458/
[20:17] <NorthByNorthWest> Pici: *that too
[20:17] <llutz> dany: thats your wifi controller: 02:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
[20:18] <Exxon> llutz, then we require the lspci  that's what i am insisting upon..
[20:18] <llutz> Exxon: he already gave
[20:18] <patrick_> i want sound to my recordmydesktop app
[20:18] <Pici> NorthByNorthWest: Install compizconfig-settings-manager and run it via 'ccsm' and tweak or disable the sticky window settings.
[20:18] <llutz> Arsonide: what kernel are you using? uname -r

[20:20] <llutz> dany: sudo modprobe ath9k
[20:20] <llutz> dany: iwlist s
[20:20] <Arsonide> That's my kernel.
[20:20] <Exxon> llutz, nonsense..where is the wireless in the paste.
[20:21] <llutz> Exxon:  [21:09:08] <llutz> Arsonide: "Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter (rev 01)"
[20:21] <Arsonide> So is that a dead end?

[20:56] <qwebirc84771> Hello! Whats the difference between Ubuntu and ubuntuservers?
[20:57] <Pici> qwebirc84771: The server doesn't install a GUI and lets you do some pre-selection of packages at install time.

[21:10] <TACPILOT> what package contains the directory tree ?
[21:10] <Exxon> llutz, may be channel operator is asleep ; you people should be helping instead of cross-posting.
[21:11] <llutz> cross-posting, where? learn to read
[21:12] <Pici> TACPILOT: There isn't one package that contains it. paths are created as packages define them.
[21:12] <litropy> Hi, peeps. I have a trackball. I'm attempting to use xinput to make it so that when I press both left-click (button 1) and right-click (button 3), my window scrolls with the mouse.  I'd also like to release both buttons and still retain this functionality until I click again. See for more info: http://pastebin.com/3prT5SEJ

[21:20] <AlanBell> mutes: you would have to compile your own kernel to use that, or wait a while for it to  get into the release. Waiting is recommended :)

[21:44] <ben-8409> hi everybody. i am playing around with ubuntu 12.04 and unity 2d in virtual box. have some small issues and bug im not sure they are caused by virtualbox
[21:45] <ben-8409> in system settings, the cursor becomes invisible when i hover an icon. somebody else got this issuer
[21:45] <ben-8409> ?
[21:46] <Arsonide> Alright. I got my wifi adapter to show up finally. Now I'm getting "Network Authentication Required" when I try to connect to my router. After I input the correct key, it pauses for a while, then the same box pops up again.
[21:46] <Arsonide> Over and over.
[21:46] <izz_> hey guys, are the regular ubuntu live/install cd's bootable on intel mac mini? or do I need a special iso?

[21:46] <omido> hi . i have a lenovo thinkpad sl510 with intel core2dou t9600- 4gb ddr3-ATI mobility Radeon HD 4500(256mb) and 500gb 5400rpm hard drive . earlier today when i asked about how to install pae kernel some people told me that why dont you install a 64 bit edition of ubuntu. i want to know if my system is 64 bit capable and what are the diffrences between 64 bit and 32 bit and pros and cons of them.
[21:47] <ben-8409> gnuskool: it only occurs in system settings, nowhere else.
[21:47] <gnuskool> anyone else not getting the samba gui to open?
[21:47] <llutz> omido: grep " lm " /proc/cpuinfo
[21:48] <ben-8409> omido: all core 2 duos should be 64bit compatible
[21:49] <llutz> omido: if that shows the flags, it has long_mode (lm) and IS 64bit capable
[21:49] <ben-8409> it allows you programs to address more ram and some multimedia related processing should be faster
[21:50] <ben-8409> omido: some people say the have problems with 64bit, but i never had problems using 64bit. have used it for years.
[21:50] <drx1> what's the difference between "latest stable release" and "includes Long Term Support"?
[21:50] <omido> llutz: thnx
[21:51] <TACPILOT> whats version of ubuntu has the smallest footprint and with out a gui ?
[21:51] <omido> so why does ubuntu's download page recommands 32 bit version?
[21:51] <llutz> !minimal    | TACPILOT use this and install only what you want
[21:52] <omido> llutz:  http://paste.kde.org/158960/
[21:52] <llutz> omido: 32bit works on all machines, 64 won't on 32bit
[21:52] <TACPILOT> cool TY
[21:52] <llutz> omido: as i said before, it has long_mode (lm) and IS 64bit capable
[21:53] <Guest78831> hello everybody
[21:53] <omido> llutz:  so you think i better remove this 32bit installition and install 64 bit instead?
[21:53] <llutz> omido: if you want to use all your RAM, yes
[21:53] <omido> i'm afraid of some software which i only have 32bit installers of. like IBM lotus symphony which IBM website only has the 32bit installers
[21:53] <llutz> omido: imho there's no reason to install 32bit on 64bit-capable machines
[21:55] <llutz> omido: it needs some additional libs, but most 32bit stuff should run on 64bit too. (my experience)
[21:55] <TACPILOT> ^ agreed
[21:55] <omido> llutz:  thankyou
[21:56] <c_smith> llutz, that would be because of the new Multiarch support on 11.10
[21:56] <omido> i only have ubuntu installed on my laptop.i'm a little afraid cause i always install more than one OS on a machine cause i want to work with other if one breaks.

[22:03] <llutz> teekoh: 86/87 are volume sets
[22:04] <teekoh> is that not good
[22:04] <llutz> teekoh: its different and not what you want i guess
[22:04] <teekoh> i just cleared a HDD and want a default NTFS so that the next person doesnt have problems laoding

[22:09] <chandra_> c_smith: does my problem look solvable ?
[22:10] <raven> what is an open source (voip) tool similar to skype?
[22:10] <c_smith> chandra_, from what I can see the system is broken, quite possibly beyond the point of recovery. I haven't run into this myself, but as a general rule, if an update segfaults, you'll likely have a broken-beyond-recovery system, if you can't fix the ecryptfs via recovery steps, that's a bad sign.
[22:10] <omido> raven:  all others suck . at least they sucked for me
[22:10] <meerkats> hi raven, I was asking the same
[22:10] <ctwiz> hi all!  I have a media temple VE server, and for some reason I've updated things through apt-get and now when I rebooted, I can't ping or ssh into the server. When I've used the "repair" functionality of their service (essentially a temporary OS with my server partition mounted under /repair) /var/log/boot,message seems to be 0 size. I've checked /etc/syslog.conf and it seems to be configured correctly. Is there anything else I can check to
[22:10] <ctwiz> boot logs to work? (Ubuntu 10.4)
[22:10] <chandra_> c_smith: what are the recovery steps ?
[22:10] <bosman> raven: ex: google talk have voice talk
[22:10] <chandra_> i can log in
[22:10] <meerkats> ekiga raven
[22:11] <chandra_> and i can also see my files when i follow the steps i follow in the blog i posted abt
[22:11] <diverdude> How do i disable touchpad on my lenovo in ubuntu 11.10?
[22:11] <c_smith> chandra_, I was refering to what steps you were already taking from those sites.
[22:11] <ejv> how do I tell mysql server to listen not only on localhost, but also 192.168.blah ?
[22:11] <raven> meerkats, which company is behind ekiga?
[22:11] <chandra_> i can see my files by the methods mentioned there
[22:11] <chandra_> c_smith:
[22:11] <chandra_> c_smith: but after i remove live boot medium and reboot, i can not see them anymore
[22:12] <meerkats> raven, i dont know
[22:12] <c_smith> chandra_, if you can see the files, they're still intact then.
[22:12] <omido> can someone please check this shots and help me fix these(disable ) : http://img.susepaste.org/images/679da0f5.png                    ,              http://img.susepaste.org/images/79df955c.png
[22:12] <chandra_> c_smith: yes, that is what i think too. but when i login to my system, i cannot see them
[22:12] <c_smith> chandra_, one question: is your home directory on a seperate partition?
[22:13] <chandra_> c_smith: yes it is
[22:13] <Nikolai5> Linux Mint FTW
[22:13] <llutz> ejv: bind_address=    in /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[22:13] <tonk> Evilresistance: how to uninstal and make fresh instal of nvidia drivers etc ?
[22:13] <llutz> ejv: bind-address=
[22:13] <yamahaalex37> sudo a2enmod rewrite fixed it
[22:13] <c_smith> chandra_, then you might be able to do a fresh install while keeping the /home partition intact.
[22:14] <chandra_> c_smith: when i login into my system, and try to mount private, it asks for some passphrase. i enter my login password and then it says wrong passphrase. i even unwrapped the passphrase (via live medium) and entered it, but didnt work
[22:14] <chandra_> c_smith: i thought abt it too. but i was afraid i would lose my data in /home
[22:15] <ctwiz> anyone have any idea?
[22:15] <chandra_> what do you think? c_smith ?
[22:15] <c_smith> chandra_, if you do a fresh install on the PC in the way I'm about to detail you will be able to come out with the same /home partition you left, as in it won't be touched apart from being mount to the directory.
[22:15] <ctwiz> or know where I might look next?
[22:15] <chandra_> c_smith: ok. and would it also mount it properly to /home so that i can login and see my files again ?
[22:16] <Ansikt> chandra: So long as your home is not encrypted, it should be easy.
[22:16] <Ansikt> chandra:  Yes!
[22:16] <c_smith> chandra_, can't say for sure, as this isn't something I have run into myself.
[22:16] <chandra_> do  you know is there someone else who might be able to help me log in? c_smith
[22:16] <chandra_> i would not like to risk losing my files
[22:16] <chandra_> and right now i do not have a good backup medium too
[22:17] <Ansikt> chandra:  During install, don't choose 'format', and choose '/home' as the mount point.
[22:17] <meerkats> how do I add myself to the voice group? its for ekiga (VOiP Client)? sudo adduser username voice ?
[22:17] <c_smith> chandra_, ask around, but you can keep the partition intact by just setting the mount point of the partition to /home but not checking the format box
[22:17] <goddard> hey look at my bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/903395
[22:17] <llutz> meerkats: yes
[22:17] <chandra_> Ansikt: would it change my current situation? ie. would i be able to see my files in /home again?
[22:17] <Ansikt> chandra, could you repeat your problem in whole?
[22:17] <c_smith> chandra_, as in make sure it's not checked.
[22:17] <bpietro> chandra_: wait a minute, must read your prb
[22:17] <chandra_> Ansikt: did you read http://pastebin.com/QYDuEZzg
[22:18] <chandra_> bpietro: ok
[22:18] <chandra_> bpietro: it is here: http://pastebin.com/QYDuEZzg
[22:18] <meerkats> llutz, so it will only make a difference after restarting...
[22:18] <llutz> meerkats: re-login, not restart
[22:18] <ark3qqq> When I installed I set up a static IP. Machine has been moved to a new network. How do I redo network auto-configuration? It needs to be DHCP this time.
[22:19] <meerkats> llutz, the noob doesnt know the difference, should I then just log out? switch user? (there's only me using this craptop)
[22:19] <phillip_> My internet is running really really slow on my ubuntu installation but it is fine on my other laptop and my windows installation on the same laptop, can anyone help me this is really anoying!
[22:19] <ejv> llutz: looks like i can't bind multiple interfaces :(
[22:19] <ejv> thx anyways
[22:19] <llutz> meerkats: logout - login again
[22:19] <meerkats> a
[22:20] <bpietro> yes, I saw it, sorry, can't help, not using encrypted home I haven't any experiences w/ it, pitty :(
[22:20] <Corey> ctwiz: Get it sorted?
[22:20] <Corey> ctwiz: If not, I have your answer for you. :-)
[22:20] <ctwiz> Corey : not yet
[22:21] <Corey> ctwiz: Okay, how old is your server?
[22:21] <ctwiz> Corey : sweet, I just hit the "reinstall to default" button
[22:21] <ctwiz> Corey : pretty old I guess
[22:21] <bpietro> chandra_:  yes, I saw it, sorry, can't help, not using encrypted home I haven't any experiences w/ it, pitty :(
[22:21] <llutz> ejv: you can bind it to 0,1 or all addresses
[22:21] <Corey> ctwiz: Yeah, there was a Virtuozzo update that ate networking if you updated the VE.
[22:21] <ark3qqq> Is it possible to redo the network autoconfig stuff I did at install time?
[22:21] <chandra_> bpietro: :(
[22:21] <ctwiz> Corey : that's it!
[22:21] <Corey> Calling it in will get it fixed within the day.
[22:21] <ark3qqq> i.e. some sort of dpkg reconfigure blah ?
[22:22] <Corey> ctwiz: I used to be a senior engineer there, it was.. interesting.
[22:22] <chandra_> Ansikt bpietro btw, i dont get segfaults now when i do sudo
[22:22] <ctwiz> Corey : darn. ok. Thanks. I called support they said "You updated your server? We can restore from back-up"
[22:22] <Corey> ctwiz: Call it in, they should be able to fix it. :-)
[22:22] <ctwiz> Corey : but offered no support otherwise. Sweet, thanks.
[22:22] <Corey> That's a crap answer.
[22:22] <litropy> Hi, peeps. I have a trackball. I'm attempting to use xinput to make it so that when I press both left-click (button 1) and right-click (button 3), my window scrolls with the mouse.  I'd also like to release both buttons and still retain this functionality until I click again. See for more info: http://pastebin.com/3prT5SEJ
[22:22] <Corey> If they do that again ask to escalate to L3.
[22:22] <ctwiz> Corey : that's what I thought.
[22:23] <ctwiz> Corey : any idea on the boot logs?
[22:23] <ctwiz> I tried, but for the life of me I can't seem to get boot logs to work with VE.
[22:24] <phillip_> My internet is running really really slow on my ubuntu installation but it is fine on my other laptop and my windows installation on the same laptop, can anyone help me this is really anoying!
[22:24] <litropy> phillip_, make sure you're connecting to the same network
[22:24] <litropy> lol, asks question then disconnects
[22:24] <cyphase> anyone know of a way i can delete all the nautilus thumbnails of images in a certain directory?
[22:25] <ctwiz> Corey : at any rate, thanks a ton. :)
[22:25] <Corey> ctwiz: No worries, good luck.
[22:25] <Corey> ctwiz: And yeah, "boot logs" might be hosed. Usually that's read from dmesg, which you don't have on a shared container.
[22:26] <ctwiz> yeah, I figured as much. Oh well. Thanks again. :)
[22:26] <ctwiz> on the phone with them now.
[22:26] <ctwiz> on hold. hah
[22:26] <Corey> ctwiz: No worries.  Worst case ping me if they don't provide resolution.
[22:26] <chandra_> hi i am not able to login properly to my encrypted home. my problem is described in detail here: http://pastebin.com/QYDuEZzg
[22:27] <ctwiz> cool. :)
[22:28] <TACPILOT> cyphase: u can use the rm command .. warning can be very dangerous cause it not put in trashcan.   try rm --help
[22:28] <cyphase> or at least, how does nautilus know which tumbnail goes with which file? is it a hash (looks like it could be)?
[22:28] <TACPILOT> using wild cards can be powerful
[22:28] <cyphase> TACPILOT, i know i can delete all thumbnails, but i want to do it only for thumbnails of images in a certain directory
[22:29] <cyphase> thumbnail*
[22:29] <TACPILOT> thats where wild cards come in
[22:30] <Kimble> does anyone have any idea why my ntpd daemon would fail to synchronize?
[22:30] <llutz> cyphase: find certain-directory/ -type f -iname "thumb*" -delete
[22:31] <atxq> I am trying to enable mod_rewite on Ubuntu 11.10. cam anyone help me?
[22:31] <cyphase> llutz, i think you misunderstand :)
[22:32] <llutz> cyphase: just ignore me then :)
[22:32] <cyphase> nautilus stores thumbnails in ~/.thumbnails, but the file names are gibberish. i want to be able to associate those filenames with the files they are thumbnails of, so i know which thumbnails to delete
[22:33] <chandra_> c_smith: Ansikt bpietro one question: if i reinstall the system w/o formatting /home, it might ask me for encryption option, what do i choose there? do i encrypt the home, or leave it like that, choose a passphrase, or what ?
[22:34] <bpietro> chandra_: dunno :(
[22:36] <c_smith> chandra_, It shouldn't ask you whether you want to have it encrypted or not, as it uses the old settings.
[22:36] <chandra_> c_smith: ok, and what would happen to the passphrase ?
[22:36] <c_smith> chandra_, it would use the old one.
[22:36] <trism> cyphase: nautilus calculates the md5sum of the file uri hash (so echo -n file:///home/username/path/to/file.ext | md5sum) then a find on the hash should find them
[22:37] <chandra_> c_smith: i am not understanding something. when i can login to my user now, why cant i see my files? are the passphrase and passwords different ?
[22:37] <c_smith> chandra_, from what I could tell, it seemed to be the software is messing up
[22:37] <chandra_> c_smith: so what would you suggest ?
[22:37] <c_smith> chandra_, hmmmmm, not sure..... may very well be data corruption with the last message taken into account.
[22:38] <chandra_> which message do you mean ? c_smith
[22:38] <c_smith> chandra_, the one about not being able to see the files.
[22:38] <c_smith> chandra_, another place you could try for support if we can't get you a solution here is the Ubuntu forums.
[22:41] <chandra_> c_smith: hmm
[22:42] <wspardaw> hi
[22:42] <litropy> Hi, peeps. I have a trackball. I'm attempting to use xinput to make it so that when I press both left-click (button 1) and right-click (button 3), my window scrolls with the mouse.  I'd also like to release both buttons and still retain this functionality until I click again. See for more info: http://pastebin.com/3prT5SEJ
[22:42] <c_smith> chandra_, have you done a backup of the home folder recently?
[22:43] <diverdude> How do i disable touchpad on my lenovo in ubuntu 11.10?
[22:44] <chandra_> c_smith: no
[22:44] <c_smith> well, then, it would be hard for you to do a complete reinstall (formatting the home partition, too) if it goes corrupt.
[22:45] <c_smith> chandra_, have you tried to reinstall yet?
[22:45] <chandra_> c_smith: good thing is i can still access my home files from live medium. i will get a backup medium and copy the files over soon
[22:45] <chandra_> c_smith: i dont want to try to reinstall because i fear losing my data
[22:45] <chandra_> if reinstall doesnt change the situation, i dont see why i should do it c_smith
[22:46] <c_smith> chandra_, it seems that would be the most efficient way to fix this, if you files are still intact on the live session, they will be after installing.
[22:46] <diverdude> How do i disable touchpad on my lenovo in ubuntu 11.10?
[22:47] <c_smith> chandra_, the reinstall touches none of the data it doesn't need unless you specify the partition to be formatted.
[22:47] <chandra_> c_smith: but this situation was not predicted. i can login to my system but i cant see my files- this is clearly something wrong. i fear something unexplainable happens after reinstall too. afterall there might be some easy excuse later- "it was a bug" or so on :)
[22:47] <chandra_> if i am not sure, i would not like to do it :) c_smith
[22:48] <c_smith> chandra_, ok, well, I'm out of ideas then, I'll have to recommend trying the Ubuntu support forums, I can get you a link if you'd like.
[22:48] <diverdude> How do i disable touchpad on my lenovo in ubuntu 11.10?
[22:48] <chandra_> isnt it ubuntuforms.com ?
[22:48] <c_smith> looks like it.
[22:49] <c_smith> chandra_, wish I knew more ways on fixing your problem, but I sadly don't.
[22:49] <chandra_> c_smith: thanks :)
[22:49] <c_smith> chandra_, no prob
[22:49] <chandra_> c_smith: i thank you for your time and effort :)
[22:50] <chandra_> c_smith: if i know how to fix it, i'd let you know too (if you are on this channel later)
[22:50] <goddard> hey look at my bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/903395
[22:50] <c_smith> chandra_, or you could send a PM to my account on the Ubuntu forums.
[22:50] <chandra_> c_smith: cool
[22:51] <wunnle> hello.
[22:51] <washuu_de> Hello
[22:51] <c_smith> chandra_, hang on for a second, I'll get you that in a PM on IRC.
[22:52] <lion42> diverdude, I googled the instructions. It says to figure out the device ID by typing "xinput list" in the terminal, and then "xinput set-prop thedeviceID "Device Enabled" 0" in the terminal.
[22:52] <lion42> You may also be able to disable the touchpad in the bios, but I haven't tried to do that with my thinkpad and cannot confirm that it's true.
[22:52] <bjackman> nbv
[22:52] <bjackman> whoops sorry
[22:55] <wunnle> which music player are you using? I'm now using Rhythmbox but it doesn't support rating files. I need suggestions.
[22:56] <deggie> hia
[22:57] <slinzex>  plz help some experts with font config. Cant get normal font . Its like this http://i43.tinypic.com/30svnf6.png
[22:57] <mkc> Does anyone know of a blog or a tutorial about proper installation of software on ubuntu servers.  An explanation or guide why each program requires to have a new user, etc. Thanks
[22:58] <aeon-ltd> mkc: wut? not every program needs anew user
[22:58] <aeon-ltd> mkc: server works the same as desktop but without all the crap
[22:58] <omido> i installed zsnes emulator and set its configuration the wrong way. now i want to install it again without that wrong configuration that i made. how can i remove the cache(or anything its called in this case) so that i could have the default configuration?
[22:58] <mkc> aeon-ltd: On my old ec2 machines i didn't care too much about security and proper installation so everything run as ssh user or root, but I want to do it right now. I just need a guide
[23:00] <aeon-ltd> mkc: is this server personal? so for your use only?
[23:01] <mkc> aeon-ltd: It's personal but now it is going to make me money...lol
[23:01] <Paul_E> Hi all I'd like to install ubuntu with the minimal amount of packages to have a fully working desktop (so no productivity software, etc.). Desktop download installs too much. Is there a list of packages required to just have a basic working gnome system? I started with the server cd and installed that. Now I need the additional packages to get it to a desktop. Hoping for some official ubuntu...
[23:01] <Paul_E> ...documentation on a minimal desktop install. Thanks :)
[23:01] <aeon-ltd> mkc: you're prob gonna need to find a guide based on what it's purpose is
[23:01] <goddard> why does ubuntu come with xterm and bash?
[23:02] <SunTsu> why not?
[23:02] <goddard> SunTsu: why so?
[23:02] <aeon-ltd> goddard: you can use zsh if you like
[23:02] <SunTsu> goddard: because the packager thought it's a good idea to do so
[23:02] <SunTsu> most probably
[23:02] <mkc> aeon-ltd: yea, true that. I'll google around for a little while and get back when i have more specific questions
[23:02] <mkc> aeon-ltd: thanks. be back later
[23:03] <labcoattech> hi
[23:03] <enovativ> hello to all
[23:03] <omido> i installed zsnes emulator and set its configuration the wrong way. now i want to install it again without that wrong configuration that i made. how can i remove the cache(or anything its called in this case) so that i could have the default configuration?
[23:03] <goddard> aeon-ltd: so the reason it is to use zsh?
[23:03] <labcoattech> is it better to run 64-bit ubuntu if you have 4gb ram or higher
[23:03] <goddard> labcoattech: yes
[23:04] <enovativ> i have a usb wireless adapter ...i want to use on ubuntu 10.10
[23:04] <enovativ> can anyone help ?
[23:04] <enovativ> for some reason ubuntu doesn't see it
[23:04] <goddard> enovativ: did you plug it in?
[23:04] <aeon-ltd> goddard: no, it comes with bash, if you don'tt like it remove it install zsh
[23:04] <Paul_E> well.. I dug a bit more into google and found this : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimal_Desktop_for_Ubuntu
[23:04] <goddard> enovativ: check compatability
[23:04] <aeon-ltd> goddard: it's linux use whatever the hell you want
[23:04] <SunTsu> labcoattech: depends, but yes, 4gb ram and higher is a good reason for 64bit
[23:04] <goddard> aeon-ltd: oh no i do like bash but when i installed ubuntu fresh it installed xterm just was curious why
[23:05] <Paul_E> ... though.. not so promising that the first thing you see on that page is "I give up."
[23:05] <enovativ> goddard, yes i plugged it in...not working
[23:05] <Paul_E> hah
[23:05] <aeon-ltd> goddard: because it's "standard"
[23:05] <goddard> aeon-ltd: strange never saw it installed before
[23:05] <enovativ> aeon-ltd, i would agree with you ..except i have been trying to use this bluetooth headset on a compaq laptop for a week now
[23:05] <enovativ> lol
[23:05] <goddard> aeon-ltd: must be a new standard
[23:06] <SunTsu> goddard: no, on the contrary
[23:06] <aeon-ltd> goddard: it's been there since 7.04 (personal experience) and prob further back
[23:06] <omido> no one can help me with my issue?
[23:06] <goddard> aeon-ltd: oh? huh guess I never saw a menu item for it then
[23:06] <enovativ> how can i tell the usb wireless adapter is working
[23:06] <hanasaki> what package has kvmctl ? and virt-df?
[23:07] <hasufell> does any1 know D? i tried a simple hack on a source-code but the last line does not seem to be interpreted correctly. no clue: http://pastebin.com/NAFABwA0
[23:08] <SudoKing> how do i reconfigure SDL?
[23:08] <washuu_de> did I ask my question more than 60 minutes ago?
[23:08] <aeon-ltd> washuu_de: ask again anyway
[23:09] <omido> help me plz
[23:09] <aeon-ltd> omido: just ask and wait
[23:10] <omido> aeon-ltd:  i wanted to play some game. i have a little free time and wanted to play a game but it turns to waiting on irc
[23:10] <SudoKing> znes: maybe theres a (hidden) config directory in your home?
[23:10] <SudoKing> err omido:
[23:10] <Gnea> omido: what game?
[23:10] <omido> i installed zsnes emulator and set its configuration the wrong way. now i want to install it again without that wrong configuration that i made. how can i remove the cache(or anything its called in this case) so that i could have the default configuration?
[23:11] <aeon-ltd> omido: yes it's called purging
[23:11] <speedxcore> I'm looking for a software for linux to sketch networks. Wan-clouds, links, transits routers and so on. Ideas?
[23:11] <aeon-ltd> omido: then if there are any leftover files search /etc/nameofprogram and /home/username/.nameoffolder (dot folders are hidden)
[23:12] <aeon-ltd> omido: sudo apt-get remove --purge nameofpackage
[23:12] <omido> aeon-ltd:  thankyou
[23:12] <omido> i removed windows and other linux distros and i only have ubuntu installed . but i have very strange and unusual problems with it
[23:15] <gen5x4> hai all
[23:15] <washuu_de> Since I upgraded to natty there is a in-built firewall. so it seems. firestarter doesn't get any events anymore
[23:17] <washuu_de> ãã
[23:17] <gen5x4> I wana ask? does it true ubuntu 12.04 will eliminate terminal??
[23:17] <szal> !12.04 | gen5x4
[23:20] <washuu_de> Has ubuntu natty a built-in firewall? How can I deactivate it. I want to run firestarter !
[23:21] <mutes> yeah
[23:21] <mutes> does it true
[23:21] <aeon-ltd> washuu_de: iirc (everyone else chime in if i'm wrong) firestarter is a frontend for ufw (ubuntu's default firewall)
[23:22] <aeon-ltd> washuu_de: wait it's a frontend for iptables not ufw
[23:24] <washuu_de> @anon-ltd:I can't set ports open or closewd anymore. NO event is shown in the firesarter window.
[23:24] <washuu_de> I already reinstalled it.
[23:25] <cyphase> trism, i figured it was some kind of hash. i used what you said to make a quick python script. it removed 19577 thumbnails. thanks :)
[23:26] <guiri> Can someone recommend a mirror for 12.04?  I'm testing the ppc daily build on a laptop but mirror.anl.gov isn't working.
[23:27] <trism> cyphase: nice, glad it worked
[23:27] <llutz> !12.04 | guiri
[23:27] <aeon-ltd> guiri: #ubuntu+1
[23:30] <spons> jojo

[23:30] <SunTsu> RokcStar: lots of
[23:31] <gigawatt> how do i get gnome back??
[23:31] <washuu_de> I have the problem, that IRC ports are closed since I upgraded to NATTY. Is there a way to open them again?
[23:31] <SunTsu> !classic | gigawatt
[23:32] <gigawatt> !notunity
[23:32] <washuu_de> I'm NOT using Unity
[23:32] <SunTsu> washuu_de: not everything is about you
[23:32] <washuu_de> Ok
[23:34] <RokcStar> great SunTsu i found this link: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/426272/how-to-test-internet-connection-speed-from-command-line
[23:34] <RokcStar> thanks
[23:35] <washuu_de> But I never know who ubotto is talking to...
[23:35] <n4dsp> W;here can I get some tech support for Evolution email?
[23:36] <SunTsu> washuu_de: as it is a bot probably the to the one who asked it something
[23:36] <washuu_de> =????
[23:39] <n4dsp> Going with Ubuntu  I use Evolution. This is a piece of crap. Everyday at least once when I reply to an email and go to send it the program crashes and I have to reply all over again.
[23:39] <seidos> evolution works fine for me
[23:39] <n4dsp> good , glad to hear it
[23:40] <seidos> what version do you have n4dsp ?
[23:40] <boldfilter> thunderbird?
[23:40] <n4dsp> what is an alternative email program for ubuntu
[23:40] <n4dsp> let me see
[23:40] <boldfilter> I use thunderbird anyway
[23:40] <n4dsp> 2.32.2
[23:40] <seidos> i am using 3.0.3
[23:40] <n4dsp> if I upgrade I wont loose my email will I?
[23:41] <seidos> i dunno, never upgraded
[23:41] <litropy> Hi, peeps. I have a trackball. I'm attempting to use xinput to make it so that when I press both left-click (button 1) and right-click (button 3), my window scrolls with the mouse.  I'd also like to release both buttons and still retain this functionality until I click again. See for more info: http://pastebin.com/3prT5SEJ
[23:41] <washuu_de> @SunTsu: So Noone here knowns about it?
[23:41] <n4dsp> and where do I go to upgrade to 3.0.3
[23:41] <washuu_de>  Is thast what you want to say?
[23:42] <SunTsu> washuu_de: I don't even know what you are talking about
[23:43] <seidos> n4dsp: update in synaptic, maybe there's a new version there.  if not, try to get a package from the internet, maybe.
[23:44] <n4dsp> Nothing in Synaptic seidos
[23:44] <MACscr> anyone know how to get partclone installed on a ubuntu 64 system? I cant seem to compile it (no errors) and the deb is for i386
[23:44] <seidos> all i found was this:  http://projects.gnome.org/evolution/download.shtml
[23:44] <n4dsp> so its either evolution or thunderbird eh
[23:44] <n4dsp> ok thanks
[23:45] <washuu_de> I asked if the upgrade to natty means that I can<'t control my portd anymore
[23:45] <n4dsp> how do i find whom my distribution supplier is?
[23:45] <seidos> n4dsp: i think there are some terminal clients as well.  but i haven't successfully set one up yet
[23:45] <SunTsu> washuu_de: no
[23:47] <n4dsp> ok seidos thanks for the information. Merry Christmas
[23:48] <washuu_de> I asked if the upgrade to natty means that I can<'t control my ports anymore
[23:48] <washuu_de> Now all my ports are closed!
[23:49] <fschuindt> guys, I've installed the ubuntu 11.10 but I can't use the new visual... So I setup the gnome-classic mode, but it also is different. How can I install the older gnome?
[23:50] <Jack`> n4dsp
[23:50] <SunTsu> washuu_de: you might want to be more precise with your question. What are you doing exactly, ingoing, outgoing, who connects where and stuff
[23:50] <Jack`> try hotmail gmail yahoo
[23:50] <n4dsp> yes Jack
[23:50] <Jack`> then you dont need programm
[23:50] <Jack`> :P
[23:50] <n4dsp> thanks
[23:50] <washuu_de> Except port 80. That port  opemnd before I upgraded
[23:50] <Jack`> sorry but i disconnect so i think you received twice
[23:50] <SunTsu> fschuindt: gnome2 is not maintained anymore
[23:50] <Jack`> :P
[23:51] <SunTsu> washuu_de: again. be more precise
[23:52] <Eriond> anyone familiar with  makefile internals?
[23:52] <SunTsu> Eriond: ask away
[23:52] <washuu_de> OK... T
[23:53] <Eriond> I'm trying to -include another file, but it's actually checking the dependencies at inclusion, so it's running targets I don't exactly want it to run.
