ActionParsnipSVNDR: be sure you remove old kernels, bleachbit ran as user and root can also free up tonnes of space00:00
* Quantum_Ion looks like Russian to me00:00
ActionParsnipSVNDR: also removing unused apps can free a lot of space too00:00
jbendotnetChipzzz: they don't take snaps, we just backup the bits we need00:00
jbendotnetChipzzz: think I'll just have to bite the bullet and reinstall00:01
Chipzzzjbendotnet: I would ask their tech support first... you could save yourself a whole lot of trouble00:01
SVNDRActionParsnip: you a legend.. ive only got the one kernel from (installed ubuntu 2 days ago), as for bleachbit, im doing this more to see if it helps with my overheating problem..00:01
Ben64overheating is a hardware issue00:02
therehei1000:03
SVNDRBen64: trust me, ive been doing this for the last two days, ive searched a bazillion websites, saying hardware, or software, or kernels, or this and that.. yet, no fix.. so i shall try this00:03
Ben64SVNDR: overheating is always definitely hardware00:04
icerootBen64: no00:04
avernos!ubottu gnome300:04
robbbieBen64: he was saying he didn't have that issue running windows00:04
icerootBen64: e.g. when the os is controlling the fan-speed00:04
user01ActionParsnip: disabled xv in gstreamer, same issue00:04
Ben64so then... set the fan speed to be controlled by the motherboard instead of OS?00:05
user01ActionParsnip: Internal GStreamer error: negotiation problem.00:05
icerootBen64: finally the fan is always controlled by the bios00:05
SVNDRBen64: ok well, if you can help me out with more then just 'hawdware' i will take on your idea.. until then, ill stick with my instincts :p .. 2 days of straight googling makes people crazy man... dont tempt me... haha i kid00:05
icerootBen64: the software is reading the cpu temp and controlling the fan for that00:06
icerootBen64: when the software does not read correct temp-infos it will not controll the fan correctly, so its not always a hardware issue00:07
SVNDRiceroot: thats another thing i forgot to mention earlier, i can find my fan option in BIOS.. i do have a fan though.. also running 'wmpconfig' wouldnt find a fan either..00:07
Ben64well i'd still call it hardware if the fan isn't spinning fast enough00:07
icerootSVNDR: use "lmsensors"00:07
ActionParsnipuser01: are other players ok?00:07
ChipzzzSVNDR: is the machine overclocked?00:08
SVNDRiceroot: yea, thats how i did it.. downloaded lmsensors, then fancontrol.. but neither of them found a fan, and im 100% i have a fan, ive seen it with my own eyes lol00:08
SVNDRChipzzz: i couldnt tell you? how do i find out?00:08
Ben64SVNDR: what laptop00:08
icerootSVNDR: sudo sensors-detect00:08
SVNDRiceroot: yep tried that also00:08
Ben64SVNDR: i went through irc logs, but can't find you saying which laptop00:08
hipodilskidoes anyone know about software I can use to transfer voice using ejabberd00:08
icerootSVNDR: and exactly that is the problem00:09
SVNDRBen64: Lenovo 3000 N20000:09
icerootSVNDR: your os cant find any sensors/fans and so the controlling will fail and you get a high temp00:09
ChipzzzSVNDR: it's usually done in the bios, although if you are dual booting, it could be set in some Windows app & stuck there when you run Linux00:09
=== fra is now known as Guest90798
icerootSVNDR: because the os is overtaking the control over that features so the bios is not doing it00:10
SVNDRiceroot: makes sence, how would i make it detect my fan and sensor?00:10

littlegirlHey there, my son runs Ubuntu Lucid Lynx and his computer locked up fully so he had to manually shut it down (hard shut down). When he rebooted he had a CMOS Checksum Bad message. He told it to choose default settings, which worked and he was able to boot into Ubuntu, but...00:16
SVNDRiceroot: alright, will give it a go shortly, ill let you know how it goes00:16
icerootSVNDR: also try the kernel from 12.0400:16
littlegirlHe got a message for each drive that said file system was corrupt and he could press f to try to fix it. He did that and all seems to be well, but is there a log he can check to verify that all really is well?00:16
icerootSVNDR: maybe that kernel is detecting your hardware better00:16
EvilResistance!enter | littlegirl00:16
ubottulittlegirl: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!00:16
SVNDRiceroot: is that in beta version?00:17
EvilResistancelittlegirl:  you could run a fsck via the LiveCD, that'd tell you whether or not hte filesystem is clean00:17
EvilResistancelittlegirl:  i've gotten similar crupted-state messages when my systems die without proper shutdown, and fsck's via the LiveCD always seem to fix my issue00:17
icerootSVNDR: the kernel from 12.04 is stable, 12.04 itself is alpha00:17
littlegirlEvilResistance: It didn't give him a message that it failed to fix anything. What he'd like to do is find the log of the errors it already fixed to see what was damaged and repaired.00:17
SVNDRiceroot: ok, ill give that a google now00:18
icerootSVNDR: ah as it seems 3.2 is not stable yet00:18
littlegirlEvilResistance: It seems that his system succeeded in repairing his errors as well. He'd like to know what it fixed. (:00:18
EvilResistancelittlegirl:  i dont think there are logs for those.  From my experience, what it basically does is just run a check on the integrity of the ext? journaling system, and corrects incorrect statements.00:18
SVNDRiceroot: 3.2?00:18
EvilResistancelittlegirl:  i think you're talking about the automatically run fsck, that doesnt save any logs00:18
EvilResistancelittlegirl:  if it were from the LiveCD, it'd have output to stdout about what the error(s) were00:19
icerootSVNDR: just go to packages.ubuntu.com and search for the linux-image-3.2.0-6-generic00:19
littlegirlEvilResistance: So if you press f and it doesn't give an error message, is it safe to say that all is definitely well again?00:19
ActionParsnipuser01: what about gnome-mplayer :)00:19
pythonirc101how do I download a magnet link in ubuntu ? a reliable way please.00:19
icerootSVNDR: linux 3.200:19
EvilResistancelittlegirl:  "corruption" on ext4 and other journaling file systems sometimes just means you need to go through the journal and recover it00:19
littlegirlEvilResistance: Yep, this was the automatic fsck. (:00:19
icerootSVNDR: its the current kernel from 12.0400:19
EvilResistancelittlegirl:  you can safely *assume* that the main issue was fixed...00:19
picassohi.. im trying to install PostgreSQL on lucid, and it seems the script to configuration is screwy. something with a locale using LATIN1 and the server wanting UTF8. (this in the output of apt-get install postgresql)00:19
littlegirlEvilResistance: Hehe, yep, he's got his eye on that computer sideways now and thinking what he will be buying to replace it... (:00:19
SVNDRiceroot: ok so what kernel should i be looking for?00:20
EvilResistancelittlegirl:  if it starts happening repeatedly without any hard-shutdowns, come back here, it could be a sign of you needing to run an indepth fsck to find bad blocks/sectors/etc.00:20
Chipzzzlittlegirl: check dmesg for errors when it loads the system... if that is clean, you're ok00:20
icerootSVNDR: the one i posted00:20

EvilResistance(aka the journaling system getting messed slightly)00:23

EbonhandAnyone have a solution for the 'upgrading to 11.10 from 11.04 is a regretable decision' bug?01:19
_phoenix_Ebonhand was your upgrade successful?01:20
Ebonhand_phoenix_: technically, but I've had no end of trouble since01:21
Ebonhand_phoenix_: I'm a classic desktop user, yasee..01:21
abstraktEbonhand, yep, erase and do a fresh install01:21
abstraktEbonhand, I personally never do upgrades, I always do a fresh install (for desktops anyway)01:21
_phoenix_Ebonhand: oh just asking cause I can't upgrade my 11.04 to 11.10 there's always an error01:21
Ebonhandnothing but crash after crash after crash01:21

ActionParsnipEbonhand: is it the same as a new user?01:22
EbonhandActionParsnip: haven't tried, to be honest01:22
ActionParsnipEbonhand: tried a different DE?01:22
fd-balderChipzzz, no, but i think this is a general issue relating to grub01:22
EbonhandDE?01:22
ActionParsnipEbonhand: desktop environment, like XFCE01:23
_phoenix_Ebonhand: just like abstrakt said I think also it's better for a fresh install some upgrades are not that great success01:23

benbloomdoes anyone know if there's a way to make aufs wait until nfs mounts complete before mounting via fstab? in fstab docs _netdev switch is for nfs only. can I somehow add it to the aufs line?01:23
abstraktEbonhand, ALSO do ditch the standard DE and use XFCE instead01:24
Ebonhandapparently gnome classic isn't very well supported in 11.10 anyway..?01:24
d1g1ta1Is it possible to undo a ./config and make ?01:24
SVNDRGuys, i really need a solution the the overheating on Lenovo 3000 N200, ive been trying for practically 2 days straight and i cant manage it.. im not sure if i need to install thinkpad-acpi or ibm-acpi, i dont know if i need to be controlling the CPU throttle or the Fans.. ive seriously come to a complete stop.. the kernels everyone is saying i need 'linux-image-generic-3.2.0-6-generic' but01:24
abstraktEbonhand, sudo apt-get install xfce401:24
SVNDRwhen i try to search for it its supposebly been removed.. my brain is about as friend as my CPU will be if i dont fix it.. ive googled everything from, lm-sensors, to kernels, to patches, to Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Kubuntu, to 'lenovo overheating with ubuntu', you name it ive pretty much googled it.. i know someone has had this problem before, and i can assure they have gotten it fixed.. i just kind01:24
SVNDRfind that person.. PLEASE person, if your in this room, help me.. or if you know someone who knows someone... PLEASE im begging lol... my brain and eyes are soo sore..01:24
FloodBot1SVNDR: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.01:24
_phoenix_anyone here knows how to install backtrack utilities in ubuntu 11.0401:24
abstraktEbonhand, GNOME "classic" doesn't exist anymore in 11.1001:24
SVNDRim sorry FloodBot1 :(01:24
Ebonhandabstrakt: precisely :P01:24
abstraktEbonhand, if you want a DE that resembles the GNOME you are used to, use XFCE, it's better than GNOME 2 was anyway01:24
Ebonhandabstrakt: i'll give it a try, ty01:24
abstraktEbonhand, XFCE gets right, so many annoying little things that GNOME2 got wrong01:24
Chipzzzfd-balder: I ask because grub has always found all the other operating systems on the machine when I install Ubuntu. Maybe if you did a "sudo grub-install it would take care of it"01:25
Ebonhandanyone here actually like unity?01:25
abstraktEbonhand, no01:25
mhazno01:25
_phoenix_Ebonhand: for me unity is only for netbooks01:25
abstraktEbonhand, we all pretty much hate it01:25
Ebonhandwhat on earth are they thinking? :/01:26
abstraktEbonhand, if you like unity, then you have never used a computer before in your life, or you are 84 years old01:26
mhazgoing to debian when lucid is unsupported01:26
abstraktprobably both01:26
fd-balderChipzzz, yeah, it does successfully load dos 7.1. and winxp in addition to tinycore linux of course01:26
_phoenix_haha they were thinking more on the netbook users probably01:26
abstraktEbonhand, if you properly partition your system in to system drive vs files drive, then fresh installs are really easy01:26
fd-balderChipzzz, so maybe freedos balder is not meant to be booted this way01:27
Ebonhandabstrakt: true, but I've rarely found the time to spend on that01:27
abstraktEbonhand, I usually go with about 20-50G "system" partition and about 100-200G "files" partition01:27
Ebonhandtoo much chopping and not enough sharpening the axe01:27
Chipzzzfd-balder: i don't know anything about freedos but grub is supposed to be "universal"01:27
abstraktEbonhand, yeah, well... if you do it, then you'll have a lot more time to chop in the future when a new release comes out because an upgrade will be a cinch01:28
Ebonhandi know, i know.. lol01:28
_phoenix_anyone here installed backtrack utilities in ubuntu 11.0401:28
Ebonhandstill, wish I could control-Z yesterday's spur-of-the-moment 'yes, upgrade to 11.10'01:28
mhaz"system, files" you mean " root, home"?01:28
kszkszinstalling libtorrent-0.12.6 on ubuntu 11 mini-smth; ./configure is ok, make returns errors like 'error 1, 2' null was not declared blabla, google fails to help01:29

[2]jonhow much memory would ubuntu need to run with just the command line.. no xwindows?  I just  need basic networking and java.01:29
abstraktmhaz, not quite, but something like it, hence why I used quotes01:29
Ebonhandbrb01:29
abstraktmhaz, I mean root and "files", as in not a separate partition for /home01:29
_phoenix_no one's answering my question T_T01:29
abstrakt /home still lives on the root partition01:29
abstraktmhaz, files I actually care about, like projects I'm working on, my music library, my downloads etc, all live on my files partition01:30

[2]jonabstrakt, I'm trying to figure out what I'll need for a VPS.  I figure that app I'll run will take between 50 and 100 meg, plus whatever the OS requires.01:32

Stanley00JasonGriffee: I think so...01:32
abstrakt[2]jon, for a local VM anyway01:33
SVNDRIs there a huge difference from 10.04 to 11.10 ?01:33
[2]jonabstakt do you think I could get by with 256? trying to keep it cheap as possible01:33
abstrakt[2]jon, for a production VPS, well, that depends on how much traffic you get01:33
ChipzzzSVNDR: there's unity01:33
abstrakt[2]jon, i use 256 on most of my dev servers, seems to be fine01:33
urlin2uSVNDR, gnome2 to unity pretty big change there.01:33
xanguaSVNDR: oneiric uses more recent kernel, gnome, programs, all¿01:33
abstrakt[2]jon, is this going to be a production server or a dev server?01:34
[2]jonabstrakt .... I'm going to rent a VPS i should say.01:34
ActionParsnipEbonhand: you can hack gnome3 to look like gnome201:34
abstrakt[2]jon, i understand that01:34
abstrakt[2]jon, do you know the difference between local/dev/staging/prod ?01:34
ActionParsnipEbonhand: there is a how to on omgubuntu01:34
[2]jonabstrakt it will be production.. I'm going to run red5 off it01:34
SVNDRMy laptop is constantly over heating in 11.10.. im thinking about downgrading 10.04 to see if it helps.. whats all you guys opinion?01:34

[2]jonabstrakt yah I do..01:35
abstraktEbonhand, I personally will take "looks like ass" over "crashes all the fuck over" anyday01:35

ActionParsnipSubCool: what do you want to edit?01:38
dr_willisSubCool:  You just want the windows entry at top?01:39
SubCoolActionParsnip: i just want to swap the order01:39
ChipzzzSubCool: "gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub" or "sudo nano /etc/default/grub"01:39
SubCooldr_willis: ya01:39
ActionParsnipSubCool: so windows be the first entry?01:39
SubCoolah, its in etc01:39
dr_willisSubCool:  do you have a /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober  ?01:39
abstraktjimi_, why does it matter? i know that mysql-client doesn't install mysql-server01:39
SubCoolwoo- which one...01:39
[2]jonokay thanks abstrakt guess I'll just have to try it and find out01:39
jimi_abstrakt, Right,but does mysqlserver install the msyql-client?01:39
SubCoollets see wht i have,01:39
abstraktjimi_, if you can't install mysql-server because it also installs client, then IMO you're Doing It Wrong (TM)01:39
abstraktjimi_, if you also want client, then what's wrong with typing sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client just to be safe01:40
benbloomdoes anyone know if there's a way to make aufs wait until nfs mounts complete before mounting via fstab? in fstab docs _netdev switch is for nfs only. can I somehow add it to the aufs line?01:40
abstraktjimi_, btw apt-get doesn't auto install things it'll tell you "these will be installed"01:40
ActionParsnipSubCool: if you say exacty what you want, you'll get fewer questions clarifying the issue01:40
ActionParsnipSubCool: sudo mv /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober /etc/grub.d/06_os-prober; sudo update-grub01:40
abstraktjimi_, so try it and see01:40
dr_willisSubCool:  for grub2 you can rename  /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober   to be like /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober   and that should put the probed os's befor the linux entries. (run sudo update-grub  afterwards)01:40
abstraktjimi_, srsly, why can't you just type sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client ?01:41
dr_willisthere are other ways to specificy the defaults also.01:41
abstraktthat will give you both, guaranteed01:41
jimi_abstrakt, ok01:42

AZorarm *.gz02:33
Erealzah02:33
ActionParsnipAZora: that doesn't inform me. Where is the 'dashboard' in ubuntu?02:33
craigbass1976Teratogen, ls /dev/whatever/*.gz and see if that's all the ones you want to get rid of.  If it is, then rm /dev/whatever/*.gz02:33
shareActionParsnip: lots of stuff :)02:34
ActionParsnipAZora: do you mean 'dock'02:34
vouthActionParsnip: I have ghex2 installed. Running as root, I can only get: "Can not open file!"02:34
ActionParsnipvouth: what file are you opening?02:34
vouthActionParsnip: In Okteta, I get an empty file.02:34
AZoraActionParsnip, I like the old school task bar and menu. I don't like the start menu in WinXP, I always use classic mode on Windows. I don't like the 11.10 menu system in ubuntu. The menu system I do like WAS REMOVED in 11.10 so I refuse to upgrade02:34
vouthActionParsnip: /dev/sda02:34
ActionParsnipAZora: oh you mean PANEL02:34
ActionParsnipAZora: you can hack gnome3 to look like Gnome2, or install xfce4 and use xfce session02:35
AZoraActionParsnip, yeah the terminology varies by who you're talking to drastically. 'Dashboard' appears to be the most common cross platform term I've found02:35
Erealzim still learning about the commandline im wondering were i can get tips on how to master it02:35
_jason!cli | Erealz02:35
ActionParsnipAZora: in ubuntu, its a panel, lxpanel, gnome-panel02:35
ubottuErealz: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal or type in it: man intro02:35
AZoraActionParsnip, I looked up the directions on how to do it: "Step 1: DON'T DO IT"02:35
AZorahey I liked blackbox too02:36
ActionParsnipAZora: Go for xfce4, it looks and smells like Gnome202:36
AZoraright now I'm just refusing to upgrade, but that doesn't fix the canonical uninstall of java, the weirdness regarding apps, the increasing lack of control, etc02:36

ActionParsnipwolf23: the nvidia driver doesn't load in time to give a boot splash, that's why you get the issue. Its nothing bad as the OS does load03:32

wolf23ActionParsnip,  ah ok thanx03:42
ActionParsnipchymist: could try the 12.04 liveCD, see if that kernel is any nicer for you..03:42

shade34321ActionParsnip: if I use du -h -s while in /storage i get the total size of /storage, if i do du storage/ -h -s I get the entire size, if I leave off the -s i get each individual folder all the way down03:45

jschallHaving bluetooth problems as detailed in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11587773#post11587773 - any insight appreciated.04:14
smedingit's an Intel HDA chip, used to work fine before, i can see stuff in /proc/asound/ that makes sense... aplay -l sees no soundcards04:15
ActionParsnipsmeding: try:  killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse*04:15
smedingthat does not seem to have done anything -- anything required after that?04:16
smedingit should be mentioned this is a pretty non-standard set-up... running the awesome wm so most of the stuff gnome/unity/whatever do isn't done04:16
ActionParsnipsmeding: wait 5 seconds or so after the command completes, then run:  alsamixer  and ensure all levels are cranked and unmuted, the command doesn't output anything if that's what you mean04:17

ActionParsnipjoallard: what GPU do you use?04:32
joallardActionParsnip: Nvidia Quadro 1000M with the 290.10 drivers04:32
y-chrmsm-adaminteresting, nouveau works with this new card.04:32
joallardi.e. not nouveau04:32
y-chrmsm-adamI meant with mine04:32
ActionParsnipjoallard: do you use 2 video cards in a laptop?04:34
joallardNope.04:34
ActionParsnipjoallard: good :)04:34
joallardI wonder how I could do that ha04:34
stepnjump_2Now that I finally connect to my RDP, may anyone tell me if there is a quicker way to switch between windows other than alt-tab? Because I have compiz installed and it takes forever. A static switcher would be preferable, even a terminal based application. Any suggestions?04:35
ActionParsnipjoallard: can you give the output of: sudo lshw -C display; dpkg -l | grep nvidia; xrandr; cat /etc/lsb-release04:35
Huene[istaken]Is there a way to remove the password of a user that is different than general linux? "sudo passwd --delete USER" results in "passwd: password expiry information changed." but doesn't appear to actually clear the password04:35
joallardActionParsnip,  Wow that's quite the command ;)04:35
iToastHi04:36
ActionParsnipjoallard: its not that fancy really, use http://pastie.org (or similar) to host04:36
iToastIm curios.04:36
ActionParsnipstepnjump_2: configure the switcher you have enabled to be faster, set 0 time for the anim to happen04:36
iToastCould you get a free untaken domain if you own your own dns server..04:36
ActionParsnipiToast: sure, you don't even need a DNS server04:37
iToastActionParsnip: What do you mean04:37
iToastI mean like .com, .net, .***04:37
ActionParsnipiToast: sure, you can get a free one at www.no-ip.com04:38
Huene[istaken]iToast, yes, but only machines that make use of your DNS server will be able to find it04:38
joallardActionParsnip: https://gist.github.com/a561adc4f10c2d5380bc04:38
iToastHuene[istaken]: Then whats the point of having a dns server04:38
iToastActionParsnip: BOO no-ip can go die.04:39
iToastI use dyndns.04:39
ActionParsnipiToast: same differenxcew04:39
iToastno04:39
iToastDyndns has compatibility with all popular routers, no-ip doesn't.04:39
Huene[istaken]well I personally need it to allow for internal routing for example I have a website that forwards properly from the outside, but I need to use the internal DNS server to allow my internal machines to find it without reconfiguring every machine04:39
Huene[istaken]there are more common uses of course, but that's what I use mine for04:40
iToastHuene[istaken]: :/04:40
smedingActionParsnip: interesting, it worked... but it introduced some weird graphics corruption04:40
ActionParsnipiToast: there is the package noip2 which can rjun on your server04:40
iToastHuene[istaken]: Lets make our own internet :P04:40
iToastActionParsnip: No.04:40
ActionParsnipiToast: which will be running as long as your service is available..04:40
iToastI don't run extra crapware on my server when My router can do the tack04:40
iToasttask*04:40
ActionParsnipiToast: its insanely light and runs once every 30 mins, it sends nearly as much traffic as PING does04:41
Huene[istaken]does anyone know the proper syntax to remove a password from a user? sudo passwd --delete USER doesn't appear to do the trick04:41
iToastActionParsnip: Still wont.04:41
ActionParsnipiToast: its still the same style of service, name to IP04:41
iToastActionParsnip: No.04:41
iToastMy router can do that task.04:41
ActionParsnipiToast: irrellevant, anyway you have a name to IP conversion04:41
ActionParsnipiToast: which is what you need, whoever does it or however is moot04:42
iToastActionParsnip: no :p04:42
iToastAnyways, lets make our own internet XD04:42
ActionParsnipiToast: it'd be an intranet :)04:42
iToastActionParsnip: wana do it/04:42
iToastSopa pisses me off, and im canadian!04:43
joallardActionParsnip: I have two different driver versions installed, is that problematic?04:43
iToastAnyays, can my ubuntu server cache stuff, so my desktop requests to it first then it gets stuff from the web04:43
ActionParsnipiToast: so if you have dydns, why would you need anything else, you don't need a DNS server unless you want to accellerate your web access mildly04:43
iToastActionParsnip: How mildly?04:44
iToastAlso, would it be able to cache pages for faster loading..04:44
todd_dsmenjoy:   http://news.cnet.com/2008-1082_3-5065859.html04:44
ActionParsnipiToast: if you install a caching proxy then yes04:44
BalthazarActionParsnip: iToast: http://thehackernews.com/2012/01/hackers-launching-own-satellites-in.html04:44
ActionParsnipiToast: local DNS means systems don't use the web (slow) for DNS, they can use LAN (fast) first04:45
iToastBalthazar: thats were my idea is from.04:45
Chipzzzjoallard: i have a feeling you're not loading an nVidia driver & using a vesa driver instead... that would explain why it's so slow04:45
iToastActionParsnip: So just translates into a ip faster04:45
regintHi,  kernel is getting stuck at kernel_thread_helper? I tried meego and ubuntu live cd, but getting same error. What could be the problem? Previously, it was booting.04:45
ActionParsnipiToast: yes, makes translation take 2ms rather than about 30ms. I put a DNS on ALL my end systems so it takes 0ms, I use dnsmasq04:45
joallardChipzzz: let's have a look at my Xorg.log: https://gist.github.com/b9c6f7e2ff404b48e6a804:46

y-chrmsm-adamI am interested in knowing.04:47
joallardy-chrmsm-adam: apt-cache show?04:47

iToastAny tutorials.04:47

Thunderkiss65I forgot the repo let me look04:49
y-chrmsm-adamI can't believe ain't in the repos04:50
Chipzzzjoallard: it looks like it does load the vesa driver04:50
joallardOkay, how do I solve that?04:51
iToastHey04:51
y-chrmsm-adamhow do I run an .asc file?04:51
iToastCan I cluster freenas and ubuntu server, both are debain based.04:51
joallardChipzzz: It looks like it's using nouveau too, is it?04:51
alkafooy-chrmsm-adam: probably a text file04:52
y-chrmsm-adamI got it, is like this python youtube-dl.asc04:52
y-chrmsm-adamamazing!! youtube-dl is just a script!!04:52
alkafooit's probably for verifying the authenticity of the script04:52
Chipzzzjoallard: no, at 34.909 it unloads the nVidia drivers & loads vesa04:53
alkafoowith pgp or the like04:53
y-chrmsm-adamyoutube-dl.asc IS the program --> http://rg3.github.com/youtube-dl/download.html04:53
alkafooalthough if you got it from the same locadtion as the script, it's not quite as useful04:53
Chipzzzjoallard: whoops... scratch that...04:54
joallardChipzzz: yeah haha I was scratching my head a little04:54
alkafooy-chrmsm-adam: nope, that just has 'youtube-dl'04:54
alkafoomaybe you renamed it04:54
y-chrmsm-adamoh lol, I see, I did "save as" and .asc was set as automatic extension04:55
y-chrmsm-adammy bad04:55
y-chrmsm-adamwhere's the proper place to put that script?04:55
alkafooy-chrmsm-adam: nowhere, install it with your package manager04:55
stepnjump_2sorry actionparsnip, I just saw your message.. yes it's very slow because I have compiz installed and running04:56
y-chrmsm-adamthen create some 'alias youtube-dl=python /path/to/youtube-dl'04:56
WebGoddess008i ended up installing xubuntu after all04:56
y-chrmsm-adamalkafoo: is NOT in the repos04:56

dr_willis!info alkafoo04:57
ubottuPackage alkafoo does not exist in oneiric04:57
alkafoodr_willis: this is quite disturbing =P04:57
Thunderkiss65well I guess youtube-dl is in the ubuntu repositories now.04:57
dr_willis:)04:57
Huene[istaken]does anyone know the proper way to remove a password in ubuntu04:57
alkafooy-chrmsm-adam: however for the record, you'd put something like that into /usr/local/bin/04:57
joallardChipzzz: nothing like nv-glx in lsmod, the only thing i found was "vesafb"04:57
joallard(not to mention 'nvidia')04:57
alkafooy-chrmsm-adam: more complex (multiple-file) programs are more complex to use without the package manager04:58
alkafooHuene[istaken]: what for04:58
Chipzzzjoallard: really?!? if it actually is using the vesa driver, then that explains the problem04:58
=== jin is now known as jinppk

Thunderkiss65I have a slow internet connection so i just find videos i want to watch, put the links in a text file then youtube-dl -c -a URLs04:59
MechdaveHuene[istaken], You should be able to do it with login manager04:59
dr_willisfrom the shell... you mean console?04:59
Huene[istaken]meant console yes,04:59
=== jinppk is now known as zuppy
Huene[istaken]well technically from ssh04:59

Huene[istaken]I havn't had a need to install server yet05:00
ActionParsnipjoallard: were you having the issue with the quattro 1000 earler?05:00
Chipzzzjoallard: I think they recommend a complete removal & reinstallation for proprietary video driver problems... let me check around05:00
joallardActionParsnip: though we found out with Chipzzz I had 'vesafb' loaded05:01
Huene[istaken]yes which requires extra work on the users end, the goal is to reduce the extra work done by those connecting05:01
joallardChipzzz: what's weird is that I did it from a clean install...05:01
joallardLike 2 days ago05:01
jinCan anyone help me with a network issue?05:01

rlmccormickis that stuff related to the network issue? lol05:02
jinyeah,05:02
MechdaveHuene[istaken], The user is connecting from the box that you want to login automatically? Or are they connecting to a box thst you want to login on boot?05:03
Huene[istaken]Mechdave I want a user to telnet or ssh to the box, enter the username, and just connect05:03
oYeVoVeYohaso, it's funny I can use wired network on Windows, but when I switch to ubuntu, I can't. :( any idea how to fix that?05:04
oYeVoVeYoha*05:04
Huene[istaken]Mechdave I'm aware of the security implications, they're not connecting to a shell05:04
MechdaveHuene[istaken], You would be best off using ssh and using encrypted keys for authentication05:04
iToasthey05:04
iToastwhat do I do with my ubuntu server's extra power05:04
Huene[istaken]-nod- that's a step backwards, I'm attemping to reduce the amount of work people need to do05:05
MechdaveHuene[istaken], I would use ssh regardless... It suffers less from man in the middle attacks05:05
Chipzzzjoallard: a clean system install & then proprietary driver install with jockey?05:05
Huene[istaken]-nod- ssh is my goal anyway, due to compression,05:05
joallardChipzzz: exactly.05:05
Huene[istaken]but it's a bonus not a requirement05:05

dannelwhy not save the electricity and donate money to some charity which creates patent-free medications?05:09
joallardChipzzz, well for the -updates, I'm just going to remove the packages05:10
MechdaveHuene[istaken], I suppose you could log them in using password and then find a way to push the keys and do a remote setup on the client05:10

balleynemy Unity Launcher is missing. It won't come back until I restart my whole computer. How can I restart just the part that controls the launcher?05:21
ActionParsnipiToast: so its pure brute speed05:21
iToastWe gotta think of it like this.05:21
Mechdaveramadana, Tab key05:21
iToastThe cpu has the os and software to run.05:22
ramadanamechdave : <tab> + key05:22
iToastThe gpu will just be doing hte math.05:22
iToastYour loosing the power of the cpu but not the gpu.05:22
Mechdaveramadana, No just <tab>05:22
ActionParsnipiToast: at less than 800Mhz GPU is still slow compared to most desktop CPUs05:22
ramadanamechdave : oh no .....  just < tab > I must Hit it ..... ok05:22
balleynelauncher doesn't appear on screen when I mouse to left side or press Super, but when I press Super+1 or Super+2 or Super+3, etc., it still opens the applications... it's like it's working, but not rendering on the screen...05:23
ramadanahai guys05:23
iToastActionParsnip: Clock speed isn't all.05:23
ramadanaohhhhhhhhhh ......... nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo05:23
Mechdaveramadana, Just make sure that the Ok on the screen is highlighted05:23

ramadanawhy very slow friends05:24
Mechdaveramadana, What are the computer specs?05:24
iToastA pentium 3 will beat any arm cpu05:24
iToastActionParsnip: Arm cpu at 5 ghz.05:24
ramadanaintel dual core, ram 2 gb, 250 gb05:24
iToastPentium 3 at 700 mhz.05:24
ActionParsnipiToast: so you think it will be faster than an AMD Opteron 617405:24
ramadanamecdave : intel dual core, ram 2 gb, 250 gb05:24
joallardChipzzz: I hear you, and I've been there just a week ago, but I think the problem is with manual drivers rather than packaged ones05:24
iToastActionParsnip: We can have 4 - 8 cpus in 1 machine05:24
ActionParsnipiToast: AMD Opteron 6174 has 1205:24
iToastwe can do about 8 videos cards into 1 machine. each card can have 2 - 4 gpu's05:24
Mechdaveramadana, What about your video card?05:25
Chipzzzjoallard: i've got my fingers crossed :)05:25
ramadana NVIDIA GT 520M05:25
ramadanamechdave :  NVIDIA GT 520M05:25
joallardChipzzz: and now, let's roll the dice ;) I'll reboot, I keep you updated05:25
Chipzzzgood luck05:26
ActionParsnipiToast: thing is, one of the fastest video cards of November last year isn't going to be as quick as the CPUs in the system, same speed yes the arch and how the speed is used is different05:26
iToastActionParsnip: You have to renember what the cpu also has to do.05:26
ActionParsnipiToast: and will affect stuff but the main CPUs make GPUs look puny05:26
Mechdaveramadana, should be ok05:26
iToastActionParsnip: A machine with 4 cpus all 12 core05:27
Mechdaveramadana, So what is happening now?05:27

iToastYour in a conversation05:28
iToastActionParsnip: Think of this, your in a convo05:29
iToastI'm interupting wasting your time every few seconds.05:29
iToastThat gpu is having a convo. it doesnt have to be interupted.05:29
iToastThe main stuff on the cpu, stuff that needs power takes a gpu05:29
ActionParsnipiToast: i know all this stuff you know..05:29
iToastYes.05:30
iToastA gpu would be better in the end though05:30
ActionParsnipfor 3d stuff maybe, but in raw processing power the cpu is mightier05:30
Jon--What are we talking about here, GPUs for brute-forcing or hash generation?05:30
Jon--In that case, they murder CPUs for performance05:30
iToastJon--: Raw power.05:31
iToastNothing but math 24/705:31
Jon--Define power05:31
iToastJon--: Think of brute forcing, but instead of forcing, calculating.05:31
iToast24/7 never interupted.05:31
Chipzzzisn't there a #bitcoin group somewhere?05:31

abloobloohey people05:31
iToastJon--: Were talking about super computers05:32
ActionParsniphi abloobloo :)05:32
iToastWhats better, a device for nothing but math for math05:32
MechdaveiToast, A multi cpu machine such as the cray?05:32
=== abloobloo is now known as abloobloo2
iToastMechdave: Basicly05:32
ActionParsnipiToast: why not just make the OS use a few of the CPU cores for the maths, none stop05:32
Jon--GPU farms out power CPUs for mindless math crunching05:32
iToastJon--: Exactly!05:32
Jon--But a super computer does more than mindlessly crunch out rainbow tables, bitcoins, etc.05:33
MechdaveiToast, So we are talking parallel processing using a multi threaded application across thousands of cpu's05:33
ActionParsnipiToast: then you could use 10Gb or so of system RAM for video cache05:33
Jon--So it's context dependant05:33
Jon--If GPU or CPU power is more important05:33
iToastActionParsnip: what05:33
iToastThink of it like this05:33
ActionParsnipiToast: you could if you could code the software and drivers05:33
iToastYou need to simulate a tumor.05:33
iToastWhats better, a cpu or a gpu.05:33
Jon--ActionParsnip, Crunching password hashes or bitcoins is on the magnitude of 100x faster for the same $ value, GPU over CPU05:33
iToastThere is alot of math telling how to spead the cells and division.05:34
ActionParsnipiToast: 12 core chip  doing nothing but graphics and using say 24Gb of system ram ni a 256Gb RAM system for video05:34
iToastActionParsnip: There is a easy'er way.05:34
iToastLets make the os run on the video card.05:34
Jon--iToast, You aren't reading what I am saying, are you?05:34
iToastI am05:34
ActionParsnipiToast: wouldn't it be better though, I'm sure there is no GPU currently available that can do that05:34
Jon--Do you even know how an Operating System works?05:34
iToastActionParsnip: Currently yes05:35
iToastActionParsnip: were getting closer and closer with every revision to it05:35
iToastWhy not experiment?05:35
ActionParsnipiToast: 24Gb video RAM? and 12 GPU cores?05:35
iToastActionParsnip: were getting closer.05:35
Jon--There is a lot of talk about moving the CPU and GPU into one centralized unit, but, and I can't explain this without taking about an hour to explain the CPU to you, it will never REPLACE a CPU05:35
ActionParsnipiToast: yes but its codable now and can exist now05:35
iToastJon--: And there would never be a computer that can simulate a brain05:35
iToastIBM simulated a cat brain.05:36
Jon--Because there's a hell of a lot more going on under the hood than pure math crunching, process switching, set-associative caching (which video cards are terrible at), etc05:36
Jon--iToast, Are you trolling?05:36
iToastNo05:36
iToastJon--: Change how it does it.05:36
ActionParsnipiToast: maybe but with all that power, being terrible will be very minor05:36
iToastIf the video card can't do certain things. why rely on the video card to change?05:36
Jon--This is like saying a Ferari will out preform a Ferari + big truck combination, because it is faster.05:36
joallardChipzzz: I survived.05:36
Jon--You're missing the big picture, the Ferrari doesn't have the ability to tow05:36
iToastJon--: Lets not change the gpu.05:37
iToastLets change the os.05:37
Chipzzzjoallard: Whew! :))05:37
Jon--iToast, Go educate yourself please, you are incorrect.05:37
Chipzzzjoallard: is the video fast now?05:37
joallardChipzzz: nvidia-xconfig changed some stuff there wasn'T in xorg.conf; and yes the problem appears to have gone, though we never know05:37
Chipzzzjoallard: OUTSTANDING!!!05:38
MechdaveiToast, Why should a GPU replace the CPU?05:38
Jon--You are correct in claiming bitcoins and password crunching is faster with a GPU farm, yes, yes it is, but GPUs as they are designed today do not have what is required for running an OS. CPUs are much more complicated than pure arithmitic crunching, and the hardware components on a chip are not in place on a gpu05:38
ActionParsnipjoallard: if you want to make changes to the file using GUI you will need to run:  gksudo nvidia-xconfig05:39
ActionParsnipjoallard: you can then click the 'save to xorg config file'05:39
MechdaveLooking at a block diagram for a GPU, there is no way a gpu would ever function anything like a cpu05:39
joallardActionParsnip, actually, I took the cli and xorg.conf was definitely written to05:40
iToastSorry I am back.05:40
iToastMechdave: The cpu is bogged down by everything.05:40
ActionParsnipjoallard: its old school but some displays still need xorg.conf no matter how many people say it's not used now05:40
iToastIn most machines a gpu is going towaste.05:40
Jon--iToast, Do you have a formal education in hardware design, or even in computer science?05:40
Jon--I'm not attacking you, just please, understand your ignorance on this one. You are not correct.05:40
iToastJon--: I'm learning still.05:40

iToastJon--: Don't think its impossible because it hasen't been done05:41
ActionParsnipSJr: have you tested your RAM using memtest from Grub205:41
grndslm the gpu is wasted, yes.... and....???05:41
Jon--Think of the Ferrari and truck example, it's really the clearest I can be without explaining the hardware, which would take too long and I don't care enough to do it.05:41
=== svndr is now known as SVNDR
Jon--Ferrari is GPU, faster, much much faster, but it can't do everything a truck can do.05:41
Jon--If you need to pull a 500 pound load once, you're going to be screwed.05:41
MechdaveiToast, So run a distributed system with one cpu responsible for graphics and gpu and the other cpu for everything else05:41
SJrNo I haven't ActionParsnip, I'll run that right now, it's brand new, I don't think it is that though.05:42

MechdaveJairunCaloth, Jon--, And the 2 is to append06:23
Ben64chuy_max: all you need to do is "ssh -X <ip>" to start it06:23
chuy_maxBen64, really?, hum, I thought that port 6010 should listen in all network.06:24
Mechdavechuy_max, Have a look here --> http://tldp.org/HOWTO/XDMCP-HOWTO/ssh.html06:24
chuy_maxBen64, I've installed X11 servers before and forward X11 to a Windows PC using putty06:24
Ben64chuy_max: nope, it's over ssh, so it uses port 2206:24
chuy_maxBen64, for some reason, I installed 11.10 and now X11 is not forwarded. I can start a ssh session but not forward X1106:25
dr_willisputty and xming are handy for that06:25
Ben64it could be disabled in the sshd config06:25
Ben64there should be a setting in /etc/ssh/sshd_config called X11Forwarding06:26

icerooty-chrmsm-adam: dpkg -l | grep ^ii  is showing if it is installed06:55
icerooty-chrmsm-adam: everything in that list is installed06:56
ActionParsnipfranzks: windows doesn't have the drivers for your hardware, ubuntu does :)06:56
icerooty-chrmsm-adam: without the grep ^ii you can use "dpkg -l ffmpeg"06:56
y-chrmsm-adamhorrible06:56
zykotick9y-chrmsm-adam: "apt-cache policy foo" will show is it's installed or not06:56
ActionParsnipy-chrmsm-adam: that command only searches the repo knowledge for the string you give06:56
icerooty-chrmsm-adam: last time, put the nick in front06:56
y-chrmsm-adamsomeone port eix over to ubuntu ASAP!!!06:56
Chipzzzrf5: I wouldn't expect openssl to confuse the ssh client & server versions...06:56
ActionParsnipy-chrmsm-adam: if you want to see if it is installed or not, use:  apt-cache policy ffmpeg06:56
icerooty-chrmsm-adam: and waht is horrible about dpkg -l?06:57
rf5Chipzzz: i manually runed maybe an outdated version of it?06:57
ActionParsnipy-chrmsm-adam: will say what version(s) are available and then which is installed (if at all)06:57
rf5i dont know.. the thing is that it was working before and now its not06:57
franzksActionParsnip: That's good to know. Thanks for clearing it up, cheers!06:57
SycPuppyfranzks: If you told it to update and install 3rd party drivers when you installed it is very unlikely that you will need to add any drivers.06:57
aBoundHey does anybody know how I can enable syntax highlighting for C in Nano?06:57
rf5how do i re-install openssl?06:58
franzksSycPuppy: Yeah I ticked that box. So I guess I'm all good.06:58
Chipzzzrf5: try "sudo apt-get check"06:58
y-chrmsm-adammm.. no pretty colors in apt-cache?06:58
DrkCodemani don't think it is possible to convert MBR to GPT without data loss is there06:58
icerootaBound: http://tuxarena.blogspot.com/2009/04/how-to-enable-syntax-highlighting-in.html06:58
Chipzzzrf5: "sudo apt-get --reinstall install openssl" would reinstall it, but i doubt it will help06:59
aBoundiceroot, I tried that but C syntax isn't enabling itself yet every other syntax seems to work.06:59
icerootaBound: maybe try another editor which is designed for something like that06:59
rf5ya ur right06:59
rf5still the same06:59
rf5OpenSSL version mismatch. Built against 9070af, you have 90801f07:00
rf5when i ssh localhost07:00
aBoundiceroot, I would but trying to find me a quick edit editor. :P07:00
Chipzzzrf5: did apt-get check say anything?07:00
rf5i sent in ur private07:00
rf5Reading package lists... Done07:00
icerootaBound: gedit (if you dont need the cli)07:00
Ben64rf5: what did you do to break it?07:00
rf5Building dependency tree... Done07:00
aBoundEh, not a big fan of gedit.07:00
rf5Ben64: manually install another version of openssl07:00
icerootaBound: but the REAL editors (vim, emacs) are an overkill for quick editing if you dont know them07:00
Ben64rf5: manual meaning compile?07:01
rf5ya07:01
icerootaBound: maybe have also a look at "kate"07:01
Ben64rf5: why? : /07:01
rf5cause it was bugging07:01
Chipzzzrf5: ah... it thinks versions are ok... try aptitude... it's pretty good at this kind of thing07:01
rf5the other one07:01
aBoundiceroot, I know was going to use VIM for my primary editor but nano, ne or this other editor for quick edits.07:01
aBoundJust seems at the time 11.10 is somewhat broken in the sense.07:02
icerootaBound: have a look at the command "vimtutor" it will teach you quick editing in vim too07:02
rf5 wget http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-0.9.8k.tar.gz && tar -zxf openssl-0.9.8k.tar.gz > /dev/null && cd openssl-0.9.8k && ./config --prefix=/usr > /dev/null &$07:02
y-chrmsm-adamhow do you do the underline?07:02
rf5thats what i did ben6407:02
FlannelaBound: Are you opening a c file in nano?07:02
aBoundiceroot, No problem.07:02
y-chrmsm-adamon irc?07:02
Ben64rf5: should never do stuff like that on ubuntu07:02
aBoundFlannel, Trying to open a new file in nano such as: socket.c07:02
rf5im used to debian07:02
rf5so i though it would be fine07:02
Chipzzzlol07:02
aBoundFigures it would enable the C syntax from there.07:02
Ben64rf5: i'd imagine it wouldn't be fine on debian either07:03
aBoundSeeing as socket.sh enables shell syntax.07:03
icerootrf5: even on debian never do something like that07:03
FlannelaBound: Try creating socket.c, and then opening it in nano.  Highlighting should work by default, yeah.07:03
icerootrf5: or on any other distro with a package-manager07:03
rf5what? update ssl ?07:03
Ben64right07:03
icerootrf5: recompiling stuff07:03
aBoundFlannel, Tried it I think if I disable all the highlightings maybe it'll work.07:03

rf5ok so what can i do now Iceroot?07:04
aBoundDang it.07:04
Ben64it works for some things, for example I compiled my own mplayer2, but openssl is integrated into many things, and can break07:04
icerootrf5: what do you want exactly?07:04
Kartagissometime I take screenshots and save. however if the destination directory has a file of the same name and I say to replace, I get http://people.sabanciuniv.edu/mtozses/error.png . how come?07:04
rf5can i dist upgrade without losing ssh access?07:04
Kartagiss/sometime/sometimes07:04
Kartagisrf5: yes07:05
icerootrf5: good question07:05
ActionParsniprf5: absolutely07:05
icerootrf5: depending on the implementation in the deb07:05
Ben64rf5: i wouldn't say yes 100%07:05
rf5Ubuntu 6.06.2 LTS \n \l07:05
icerootrf5: there are postinst scripts which may restart a service07:05
rf5thats a pretty old ubuntu07:05
rf5isnt it?07:05
Ben64very old07:05
rf5ya07:05
rf5so ill definitely upgrade it07:05
rf5will it fix the ssh/ssl thing im having07:06
icerootrf5: normally dist-upgrading will not kill the ssh session but i will not say 100%07:06
rf5issue?07:06
Ben64should try to undo the compiled version of openssl07:06
icerootrf5: but there is a very big ssl bug in ubuntu 6.0607:06
Ben64and put in some backdoor to get into the system should ssh die07:06
rf5ya i think that was the bug i was facing07:06
=== ilon is now known as ilon_
rf5and then i tried to upgrade it07:06
icerootrf5: yes, the famous debian openssl bug07:06
rf5okay so what you guys suggest me to do?07:07
icerootrf5: but with that EOL-Version you have other big security issues too07:07
rf5if i lose the ssh access ill have to wait till monday to fiix that07:07
Ben64can you get ip-kvm set up?07:07
aBoundFlannel, Yeah seems it isn't even detecting java syntax blah.07:07
icerootrf5: we suggest to upgrade to a supported release07:07
rf5ya can you guys give me the steps or a website?07:07
Ben64i'd suggest upgrading to 10.0407:07
iceroot!eol | rf5 (last link)07:07
ubotturf5 (last link): End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades07:07
rf5thanks07:08
rf5ill try that07:08
icerootrf5: update to 8.04 and then 10.0407:08
rf5okay07:08
FlannelaBound: It doesn't detect the syntax, it detects the filetype.  /etc/nanorc has a whole bunch of includes for the files in /usr/share/nano/ each of those files has a line in it that specifies a regexp for the files of that language07:08
icerootrf5: also think about "all ssl-certs" must!! be generated again (imo the package-manager is doing that by default)07:08
rf5iceroot: that would fix that issue im having with the ssl?07:09
icerootrf5: that will fix the debian openssl bug (if you generate new ssl-certs)07:09
rf5hm07:09
rf5ya lets give a try07:09
icerootrf5: at it will fix some local root exploits and so on, so please upgrade fast to a supported version like 10.0407:09
aBoundFlannel, I know been including file directories in .nanorc but seems something is at fault if it isn't reading the filetype.07:10
icerootrf5: and use screen for the update07:10
iceroot!screen | rf507:10
ubotturf5: screen is a window manager for terminal sessions, also useful over SSH. The 'byobu' package provides very useful additional utilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Screen07:10

rf5haha ya looks weird.08:08
icerootrf5: first would be to boot the normal 6.06 kernel08:09
icerootrf5: 2.6.32 on that system will kill a lot08:09
Ben64still was 2.6 on dapper though, right?08:09

Zyclopshi guys .. my server stopped booting.. and every time i try to do anything I get the error "error while loading shared libraries libpam.so.0 wrong elf" .. i've booted it up by using a ubuntu usb disk .. so i can get root access08:14
rf5amd6408:14
Zyclopsbut i've got no idea how to about diagnosing the issue. any ideas?08:14
icerootrf5: ok08:14
ChipzzzZyclops: what's the issur?08:14
Chipzzz(issue)08:14
biginttoshiceroot, nice08:14
icerootrf5: my suggestion is a backup and a reboot with the default kernel08:14
ZyclopsChipzze: can't login, can't do anything, can't ssh08:15
rf5ya i was going to do that and then upgrade ubuntu08:15
icerootZyclops: because pam is doing the auth08:15
ZyclopsChipzze: the login prompt appears, but after i try to type my username in and press enter it gets that issue08:15
OneSquaredHello, i installed apache, mysql and php from source. And in my file index.php where i wrote <?php echo "Hello World"; ?>. The problem is that don't parse the tag php :/ Do you know why ?08:16
Kartagissometimes I take screenshots and save. however if the destination directory has a file of the same name and I say to replace, I get http://people.sabanciuniv.edu/mtozses/error.png . how come?08:16
icerootOneSquared: why from source?08:16
Zyclopsiceroot: ok.. any idea on what i can do to fix it?08:16
icerootZyclops: chroot into the system and have a deeper look at the package-state08:16
Zyclopsi've googled and most of th epeople having this issue08:16
ChipzzzZyclops: if you get in as root and change your password you should be able to log in with it with ssh afterwords08:17
biginttoshiceroot, what log file should i monitor for all activities08:17
Zyclopsare with specific issues08:17
icerootbiginttosh: there is no single logfile for everything08:17
icerootbiginttosh: what info you exactly need?08:17
biginttoshiceroot, how about syslog ?08:17
Zyclopsinteresting.. libpam.so.0 => notfound08:17
OneSquarediceroot, to learn08:17
iceroot!find libpam.so.008:17
biginttoshiceroot, well i want to monitor activities occuring on system08:17
ubottuFile libpam.so.0 found in ia32-libs, libpam0g08:17
OneSquarediceroot, I want to learn unix administration08:18
icerootbiginttosh: /var/log/syslog is a good start08:18
biginttoshiceroot, like opening files/handles/auths/etc08:18
icerootOneSquared: ok08:18
icerootbiginttosh: /var/log/auth and /var/log/syslog are your friends08:18
icerootOneSquared: the "problem" is you have to tell apache to parse php-files which is done in the apacheconfig08:19
ChipzzzZyclops: oh! did you see what iceroot did for you?08:19
biginttoshiceroot, i cannot find /var/log/messages what happened to it08:19
icerootZyclops: you know how to chroot?08:19
icerootbiginttosh: no need for that08:19
icerootbiginttosh: just syslog and auth08:20
OneSquarediceroot, Yes but how ?08:20
icerootOneSquared: edit the apache2.conf or httpd.conf (cant remember the file)08:20
icerootOneSquared: in /etc/apache2/08:20
Zyclopsfind libpam.s0.0 − no such file or dir08:20
icerootZyclops: that command was not for you08:21
icerootZyclops: i just looked in what package the file is08:21
icerootZyclops: so you know how to chroot?08:21
Zyclopschipzz: erm.. yep?08:21
Zyclopsiceroot: nah but i'm googling.. should do soon08:21
OneSquarediceroot, Ok thanks.08:21
icerootZyclops: no need for google08:21
icerootZyclops: first boot a live-cd (with the same architecture as your installed system)08:21
Zyclopsok done.. using ubuntu live-cd (well usb disk)08:22
icerootOneSquared: or maybe it as /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini cant remeber, also see #httpd08:22

tafelpootokay nice08:31
iceroottafelpoot: but there are still cases where the build can fail and my command will run successfully08:32
tafelpooticeroot: it's a start08:32
iceroottafelpoot: mostly when you set incorrect build-depends which are already installed on your system08:32
iceroottafelpoot: but its an easy way to build packages08:33
Zyclopsiceroot: no directories /lib/i386*    there is a directory called i686 but only has EWG under it08:33

icerootZyclops1: thats a question you should ask /var/log/apt/term.log09:02
Zyclops1Chipzzz: this is development server which mainly just sits around does nothing.. except accept git pushes and runs our software management stuff09:02
Zyclops1cool. i'll check it out09:03
icerootZyclops1: ut i dont know if ia32-libs is the main package for amd6409:03
ChipzzzZyclops1: Oh, all sorts of strange things happen on dev servers09:03

almoxarifeopens source=stuff breaks, closed source=stuff breaks and the nice person tell you to re-install09:04
Zyclops1Chipzzz: ah right.. i suppose ti probably has lots of programming packages installed09:04
ChipzzzZyclops1: if anyone's writing c code or assembly, there's no telling what might happen to the server09:04
Zyclops1I think our servers are a lot simpler because they are all VMs so we don't actually have access to the real underlying software.. + i understand all the services that run on them (nginx, ruby, postgres etc)09:04
Zyclops1chipzz: nah just web stuff.. node.js, ruby, postgres, mysql09:05
someoneleseok rephrase.. if i do cat foo.txt .. how can i use grep (or cut/awk..?) to display only line 1 - 5 (or 6 - 10 etc)09:05
Zyclops1hmmm /sbin/ldconfig.real: /usr/lib/libssslo.so is not an ELF file - it has the wrong agic bytes at the start09:05

vi390hi , i want to run a ubuntu unity with a dell touchscreen (identifying as LG Display LGD-MultiTouch) , any idea how i can get it to work? it reacts somehow when i use the evdev calibrator.

tprime Hello channel. I'm trying to set up a bridged network (0) in addition to a nat-ed one(1) for a freebsd guest under ubunut 11.10/kvm, and am probably missing something really stupid. The bridge itself is working, the guest does receive a DHCP address from the network DHCP server, and it can ping it's intranet subnet (which seem to go via (0)) and the internet (via (1)), but neither the host, nor outside machines can access the guest on the DCHP11:14
tprime ass11:14
tprime<tprime> igned ip. Ping from host to guest just hangs. I have disabled netfilter for bridges on the host, the guest does not have a firewall, I've toyed with promiscuous mode and (simple) routes to no avail. Any ideas?11:14

almoxarifeassurbanipal: search for it how?12:05
AurigaIs it possible to find theme files, & move them across to another OS?12:05
icerootAuriga: what is "another os"?12:05
ServerSageIDL_: Aaah, if you want to know files with names containing some text you can use the find command12:05
assurbanipalalmoxarife, going to top right corner and start typing or click on applications menu12:05
xhackassurbanipal, yes. use apt-cache12:05
Aurigaiceroot, Ubuntu in this case, from LinuxMint.12:06
Aurigaiceroot, Just trying to find the WildMint theme...12:06
icerootAuriga: depending on the software both are using12:06
almoxarifeassurbanipal: that only lasts for a few secs right? the high cpu12:06
Aurigaiceroot, Both are gnome, but I don't know where the files are.12:06
icerootAuriga: if they both use the same gnome-version there should normally not be a problem12:06
Aurigaiceroot, do you know where the files are?12:06
icerootAuriga: sorry i am not a gnome-user12:07
assurbanipalalmoxarife, no i have to kill x and login with gnome and kill gnome-shell process12:07

wolf23help me please, after i do upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10 my pc is freezing too much,whats the solution..12:10
ServerSageIDL_: What is your ultimate goal?  If you want to use find on / you'll need to exclude some things.   Such as /dev, /proc, /sys, etc...12:11
cablopwhat is the better form to put a logical volume (lvm) on fstab /dev/mapper/VGName-LVName or /dev/VGName/LVName ???12:11
SoapGoat_jason: Yeah i actually could do that.. :P I usually go for the "Hardest" sollutions first before i check out the easiest ways to fix it thanks for the help anyways :P12:11
almoxarifeassurbanipal: showing me ppa's wont matter, see if Y-ppa-manager is a available install?12:11
txomon|homeassurbanipal, Are you installing gnome-shell from ppa?12:11
IDL_<ServerSage>: i just want to fint text PATRON_ADDRESS in all files from root12:12
assurbanipalalmoxarife, lost u there,what u mean?12:12
cablopwhat is the better form to put a logical volume (lvm) on fstab /dev/mapper/VGName-LVName or /dev/VGName/LVName ???12:12
ServerSageIDL_: And you can't narrow it down to a few dirs?  I mean, chances are that you won't files those files in /var or /usr, right?12:12
xhackcablop either way is the same12:13
almoxarifeassurbanipal: you need the purge-ppa util, it is much simpler when used in the Y-ppa-manager app, otherwise its all terminal12:13
xhackmy pref is /dev/vgname/lvname but technically its no different12:14
IDL_<ServerSage> actually i even don't know in which directory it lies :(12:14
IDL_<ServerSage> that's why want to search in all files ,i mean all-over12:14
almoxarifeassurbanipal: btw, there is no 100% that your system will be the virgin it was once, ppa's do this to a system,12:14

almoxarifeassurbanipal: i am telling you to add a ppa to fix the damage done by ppa's, sounds obsurd but that is where you are at12:18
assurbanipalalmoxarife, can u guide me through it?i12:19
ServerSageIDL_: Give it a list of dirs then.  So you would do something like "find /etc /home /var /usr…" instead of just /.  Just don't include /dev, /proc, or /sys12:19
almoxarifeassurbanipal: google Y ppa manager, tell me if it gives you the ppa for it?12:19
assurbanipalalmoxarife, so i add this  https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/y-ppa-manager through synaptic?12:21

almoxarifeassurbanipal: you understand that this is not 100%? , the damage is done, and for all i know depending on what you purge you may do more damage?, agreed?12:30
IDL_<ServerSage>:--- After running command from root   find /root . -type f -exec grep -il "PATRON_ADDRESS" {} \; , its giving me error thats is grep: ./proc/sysrq-trigger: Input/output error find: `grep' terminated by signal 9 , i can't understand where i am using /dev or something like that ? please help12:30

IDL_<ServerSage>nothing found :(12:32
almoxarifeassurbanipal: the options right now are to undo what was done, and there is warranty on that12:32
ServerSageIDL_: Odd, I just tried it on my system and it works.  Change the PATRON_ADDRESS to something like fstab and see if it finds anything.12:33
trippehxukun: 11.10 is the first release where pulseaudio supports passthrough, but I'm not sure if all the apps support that part of the pulseaudio interface yet.12:33
almoxarifeassurbanipal: the options right now are to undo what was done, and there is/no/ warranty on that12:33
assurbanipalalmoxarife, if i go back to only the original ppa's and remove gnome-shell and reinstall it,wont that work?12:33
ServerSageIDL_: Cut/paste the command you are trying to run.12:33
almoxarifeassurbanipal: you still have 'unity' intact right?12:33
assurbanipalalmoxarife, i think yes, i do12:34
IDL_ok12:34

root_that was not working man12:45
ServerSageIDL_: I told you how to fix it.   When you say find / it will go through every dir in /.  Directories like proc will cause the error you had.  So you need to exclude them.  The find I gave you does that.  You can also give it a list instead.  So find /var /etc /usr /home etc… .12:45

txomonand has not too many requirements12:55
theadmintxomon: Huh... I prefer apt on the commandline... Well honestly in Ubuntu I normally use smart (package: smartpm)12:55
theadmintxomon: It has both CLI and GUI, and deals with local installs well. You can even give it something like, let's see... "smart install http://example.org/something.deb" and it will eat it :D12:56
txomontheadmin, I also do, but for keeping the track of .deb is better12:56
txomonhummm oki12:56
theadmintxomon: But I wouldn't suggest it unless you know how to configure it for APT -- because by default it's not12:57
txomonI will take a look in that, and if I like, I will read man12:57
theadmintxomon: Here's the command you use for that: sudo smart config --set sync-apt-sources=yes12:58
theadmintxomon: After that, "sudo smart update" and you're good to go12:59
txomonoki, thank you!, as I said, I would only use it for .deb, as apt-get with apt-cache is perfect for me12:59
iceroottheadmin: where is "smart" comming from?13:00
theadminiceroot: A third-party project, present in Ubuntu repos. Works on DEB&RPM distros and slackware, lol13:00
theadminiceroot: An attempt at a universal package manager, basically13:00
iceroottheadmin: and what is the advantage instead of using apt/dpkg?13:00
theadminiceroot: I dunno, feels friendlier. Just saying. You should use what you prefer.13:01
theadmintxomon: Same to you. To install .deb via CLI you can use gdebi (package: gdebi-core)13:01
theadmintxomon: No point to pull an entire new package manager for that13:01
garden92i just uncompressed the teamspeak run file and it gave me this TeamSpeak3-Client-linux_amd64 file. how do i install this?13:02
iceroottxomon: to install a local deb on cli please use "sudo dpkg -i file.deb"13:02
txomontheadmin, the idea was it took track of the .deb, as software manager does13:02
theadmintxomon: gdebi does the same13:02
txomoniceroot, but it doesn't take any track of it13:02
iceroottxomon: track?13:02
theadmintxomon: I mean, gdebi installs .debs via APT, not just puts them into dpkg database.13:02
theadminidk13:02
theadminWhatever lol, I'm not too into APT after all13:03
txomonxD im only into apt-get13:03
iceroottxomon: it doesnt matter if you use dpkg, software-center, apt-get and aptitude all are tracked in the dpkg database13:03

blitzthere is usually a sound driver associated with the hdmi out15:04
biginttoshteemo, but the main problem still exists, that is whenever skype icon is clicked it initiates a new instance of application without checking whether one already exists or not15:04
KrisDouglasalmoxarife, usually if you have nvidia onboard you have an nvidia soundcard which is associated with the HDMI15:04
Kurdistanalmoxarife, I think it external mic.15:04
KrisDouglasalmoxarife, or at least a compatible soundcard. Usually the mic port on your machine is for the microphone though, just ensure you don't have hdmi selected under recording devices15:05
almoxarifeKrisDouglas: yeap, sound out, has hdmi started feeding back to the comp?15:05

gribouillellutz_, that's what is specified in the manual page for bash15:13
_jasonllutz_, gribouille: « help source » does say it search $PATH.  On my install, tab does not list things in $PATH when completing after "source".  Works ok in zsh though ;)15:14
almoxarifeKurdistan: easy example, take a ps3(hdmi) connect it to a computer, nothing there!, no output to the pc from the ps3, just because there is a mic plug attached to a nvidia/hdmi card does not mean the hdmi cable is sending the mic output back to the pc via hdmi15:14

bobweaverhello there I have a bunch of computers on my network I would like to be able to connect to them the same way that I do in natuilius under connectto network can I do this from the command line ?15:53
tiduxbobweaver: NFS or Samba?15:54
mistawacMailname of my system - that going to be my hostname?15:54
bobweavernot sure tidux15:54
ikoniabobweaver: you can connect them in a ton of ways, what would you like to be able to do15:54
mistawac{SystemName}.Domain.com15:54
bobweaverikonia:  I weould like to be able to browse thje files run sed and awk against them15:54
ikoniabobweaver: ok - so there are a few wasys for this15:55
llutz_mistawac: /etc/nullmailer/remotes should contain something like: yoursmarthost.example.com smtp --user=youruser --pass=yourpass15:55
bobweaverikonia:  thanks15:55
mistawacMy smarthost has no auth15:55
mistawacit accepts anonymous logins15:55
ikoniabobweaver: the first one is just to connect to each machine you want with ssh, and run the commands you want, the second is to mount each machines on the others file systems eg: so /mnt/machine1, /mnt/machine2 on each machine15:55
bobweaverikonia:  that is sweet15:55
ikoniabut that's normally overkill, most people would just ssh to the machines they want and run the commands.15:56
llutz_mistawac: spammers welcome15:56

mistawacI was hired into this hell.15:56

ikoniabobweaver: don't need -p15:56
tiduxlike sshfs user@host:/path/to/remote/directory /path/to/local/mountpoint15:57

ikoniabobweaver: please don't post silly offtopic things in this channel15:58
bobweaverikonia:  no prob thanks15:59
ikoniagandhijee_: not if you don't have the 32bit libraries in place and the linker is set to read them15:59
gandhijee_ikonia, ubuntu provides those utils - the ia32 libs ect16:00
ikoniais the linker set to use them though before you actually issues the "make" or "gcc -m32" command16:01

txomonbenbloom, the idea was to do a mixed login, ssh tunnel and VNC localhost19:42

benbloomok txomon. I can't help you with vino as i don't run gnome anymore. but it sounds like you need an "-auth guess" option in your vino preferences19:56
txomonbenbloom, dont think so, that seems to be "enable anyone to come and see"19:57
txomonbenbloom, I just need to boot it19:57

KingFisherA day ago someone started pinging me nonstop causing me to have implement a firewall...20:10
benbloommostly for when a user is on his computer and needs help from someone remotely. then they can start it up and give you access20:10
KingFisherwhen someone pings me on Ubuntu how I can find out the IP address that is pinging me?20:10
avarisclarii think theres a network extension on /who20:11
txomonKingFisher, try by looking at the firewall log20:11
cjzhi LTS 10.04, running on EC2, does anyone know how to get postfix to log enough to see what its actually giving the pipe daemon?20:11
KingFishertxomon, the firewall is the one in my router settings20:11
KingFisherRouters keep logs of those kind of things right?20:12
avarisclariusually ya20:12

RingZer01I need some permissions/ftpd help.  I can su - myuser; mkdir x; (makes dir just fine) -- ftp myuser@localhost mkdir x; Permission Denied --- using vsftpd20:13
avarisclariwell sometimes you spend upwards of several hundred dollars for something that the 40 dollar alternative is better20:13
oCeanKingFisher: if they are actually pinging the interface on your ubuntu machine, you can see source address with  sudo tcpdump -i eth0 icmp   (where eth0 is your interface of course)20:13

bullgard6depends on the particular log.20:17
avarisclariin this case my video card, i had to force uninstall20:17
avarisclariand reinstall20:17
oCeanKingFisher: yes, a ping is one host sending an icmp request, waiting for the other host to send icmp reply20:17

reapingwoyeah I figured but I was wondering if there was a search term that I could search for20:54
h00kKimble: Uuum, I haven't been following the help thread on your issue, I don't know exactly what you're doing. The gateway address will be whatever address your router is, and the subnet/netmask will depend on what class network you're using20:54
reapingwogrep shutdown /var/log/syslog or something?20:54
Kimbleh00k: gateway = router address. Cool :) Got it. And the network address?20:55
robbbiereapingwo: tail -f /var/log/syslog and then try your shutdown20:55
h00kKimble: if it's a home router, It would probably be gateway: 192.168.0.1, netmask = 255.255.255.020:55
h00kKimble: what's the address of the router?20:55
Kimbleh00k: the netmask I found already20:55
KimbleUm, 10.0.1.120:55
sstaKimble: http://pastebin.com/23b4xy3S is mine, you can use it to get the syntax20:56
reapingwowhat does tail do?20:56
sstaand 10.0.1.1 is NOT your netmask20:56
ssta(almost certainly)20:56
sstareapingwo: show the last lines from a file20:56
h00kKimble: so...probably 255.0.0.0 for a netmask, maybe?20:56
reapingwooh ok. it just returned some of my network manager actions20:56
Kimblessta: lol, that was my router's ip, in response to h00k's question.20:57
sstaKimble: ah, sorry, I misunderstood (you'd be amazed though, I've seen people set netmasks like that by mistake)20:57
Kimbleh00k: it's ok. According to ssta's pastebin of his interfaces file, "network" doesn't appear to be a required variable.20:57
robbbiereapingwo: tail prints the "tail" of a file, but tail -f outputs data written to the file to stdout20:57
Kimblessta: Even the experts make mistakes, right ;)20:58
h00kKimble: netmask, probably something like 255.0.0.0, but I don't know.  If you can get to your router, you can find it's netmask somewhere in it's config20:58
Kimbleh00k: yeah, I found it. 255.255.255.0. Thank you :)  Rebooting the laptop now.20:59
reapingwooh I see thanks.  I'll write the tail command in my notes.  seems useful.  Meanwhile in my logs I found some force deaths.  is that part of the shutdown procedure?20:59

tfittsthis message isn't really specific to ubuntu but I thought maybe someone here would know.  If you have multiple (in some cases overlapping) wireless access points that you want to roam between, is it better to have them with the same name or different?  Would the channels they are on matter more than the name?21:02

avarisclariIf you can connect its fine, if not then its not letting you due to configuration21:04
tfittsBoom_Farmer, are you more likely to hit a dead spot or can you tell if they overlap?21:05

Boom_Farmertfitts: There aren't really any blind spots near antennas - the channels don't interfere much, though that is probably the result of many channels and a carefully laid out 3-dimensional grid of overlapping APs.21:06

KimbleSeveas: I couldn't find the max value for my chipset21:14
KimbleSeveas: but it is a Gb ethernet NIC.21:14
SeveasKimble, it's not just your chipset that needs to support it, the other end also needs to21:15
Seveas(other end being the switch/device you're connecting to)21:15
ubahtekI installed samba from the software center, rebooted, and still get the same message21:15
KimbleSeveas: oh, there's no issue there. My Airport Base Station and connected Macs, and the unmanaged switch, are all Gb.21:15
Seveasthat says nothing about the supported mtu21:15
KimbleSeveas: true, all I can say is that my Macs all run with Jumbo frames, going through the switch and the router, and no issues so far.21:16
almoxarifeubahtek: what are you trying to do with samba?21:16
ubahtekI just want to share a drive on a local network21:16
sstaKimble: does the router allow you to statically assign .8?  Mine won't allow me to assign anything in the dhcp range statically21:16
SeveasKimble, ok, then it is probably your chipset indeed, I was just being thorough :)21:17
KimbleSeveas: appreciated :)21:17
ubahtekthe "personal file sharing" dialog from the launcher says the feature cannot be enabled21:17

Kimblessta: and finally, the result of route -n: http://pastebin.com/KmEzWh3t21:19
KimbleSeveas: you wouldn't happen to know an iterative way of determining my chipset's max mtu?21:20
jwacSo is there a reason my nullmailer decided to stop sending emails?  They're just sitting in my queue...21:20
sstaKimble: That should be correct then.  I guess first step is to drop MTU to 1500 in the static config and see if that works (if so then it's the MTU it's not liking).  If not, then try settign the static to something outside the dhcp range to see if it helps21:20
Seveasubahtek, it's part of gnome-system-tools, it's called shares-admin21:20

kanupatarSeveas: how can I use it?21:25
jucedogianyone know how to prevent screen distortion when upgrading from 11.04 to 11.10?21:25
Seveaskanupatar, install the scrot package. Run the command 'scrot'21:25
Kimblessta: aha, the static addressing works with an MTU of 1500. Guess it didn't like 9000 then?21:25
ubahtekSeveas: I'm still a little lost, I just installed gnome-system-tools with apt-get and "shared folders" is still nowhere to be found21:25
kanupatarSeveas: great , then whre it will be stored?21:25
Kimblealmoxarife: lol, I'm no expert either - just trying to improve my network by Googling for advice! :)21:26
Seveaskanupatar, not sure, read the manpage :)21:26
sstaKimble: well, binary search to find the highest it likes then? :)21:26
almoxarifeKimble: here is what i learned about mtu, keep it at 1500 unless otherwise21:26
Seveas(I've never used scrot, 'import' only once or twice. I use shutter for screenshots, but that's a gui)21:26
kanupatarSeveas: ok, can u expalin the first command ?21:27
Kimblessta: what's a "binary search"?21:27
Kimblessta: you mean, trial and error?21:27
Seveaskanupatar, why don't you just try it and read the manpage. Much easier to learn that way21:27
almoxarifeubahtek: where are you looking for 'sharing'?21:27
SeveasKimble, organized trial and error, minimizing the amount of tries21:27
kanupatarSeveas: ok, thanks21:27
zxiestHow can I execute a file that contains terminal commands?21:27
KimbleSeveas: gotcha.21:27
sstaKimble: try halfway between what you know works and what you know doesn't (say 5000), if that works then halfway between 5000 and 9000, if it doesn't then halfway between 1500 and 5000...21:27

Seveasubahtek, you may need to log out and log back in for ubuntu to find it.21:29
Seveasor even restart21:29
Kimblessta: well, purely because all my network devices and cabling support Gb ethernet.  It seemed a simple way to improve network speeds between the server and the rest of the network.21:29
almoxarifeubahtek: if you open nautilus and right click on a folder in your home folder you should see 'sharing'21:29
ubahtekalmoxarife: rebooting21:29
almoxarifeubahtek: if you want to, it has been there since your last boot21:30

guntbertKimble: you don't want to use with your MTU usually21:30

ubahtekalmoxarife: that seems to work, is there a way to do an entire drive?21:32
Seveaszxiest, usually yes, unless you end line one with an &21:32
KimbleSeveas: won't it reduce the number of packets my server has to frame to send large amounts of data?21:32

sstadepends what exactly is hanging waiting for network21:35
almoxarifeubahtek: you could start nautilus as root, 'gksu nautilus' and repeat the steps, i am not sure thats a good idea though, its up to you21:35
SeveasKimble, 'can't find the network' sounds like you're doing dhcp and get timeouts. Use static ip addresses :)21:35
KimbleThe issue is only happening because I'm messing with the interfaces file. Otherwise, it's fine.21:36
KimbleIt says, "trying for a further 60 seconds before proceeding with boot". Can I reduce or remove that figure?21:36
Seveasare you using dhcp?21:37

SeveasChristianAdamski, the 'amd64' packages are actually 32 bit packages. In oneiric you can actually install 32bit packages natively so that hack is no longer needed21:59

Seveasjuniorsa, could you pastebin the slave's named.conf and included files (specifically the zone entry for that zone)?22:22

Seveasjuniorsa, not a bad idea, as there sometimes are people here who know a thing or two about bind :)22:24

supplbullgard6, thank you. i'll try to dig something up... i think it might be some pci irq thing, but since im using ubuntu for a few months... thanks again.22:34
Seveasjuniorsa, did you restart named after removing the file? If not, bind is simply using it's cached version from memory.22:34
juniorsaSeveas: yes I did, on the master and slave22:35
Seveashmm, that should generally cause it to do an AXFR...22:35
juniorsaI saw something about apparmor, there is already an entry there for /var/cache/bind my new domains are in /var/cache/bind/dido22:35
juniorsaSeveas: yes that's what I thought22:35
Seveasdoes it mention nothing about that in the logfile?22:35
bullgard6suppl:  Yes, a PCI IRQ bug could be the culprit.  I once had such a bug. But this reflected in dmesg.22:36
juniorsaI grepped for AXFR in the /var/log/daemon.log file and nothing22:36
Seveasoh apparmor... yeah, that'll scew with you. Disable it while you debug bind so it doesn't get in the way. When that works, reenable it and debug apparmor :)22:36

juniorsaSeveas: I did stop the apparmor and it still doesn't transfer22:38
Seveasjuniorsa, and nothing appears in the log on either end about attempts to transfer?22:39
Seveasjuniorsa, try incrementing the serialnumber of the zone and rndc reload on the master. That should result in notifications and retransfers. Both should be visible in logs on both ends.22:39

Jordan_Uredrocket: The problem is that update-alternatives changes the link in /usr/bin/python, but /usr/local/bin/ is before /usr/bin/ in your $PATH. I'm not sure what the best way to solve this problem is in your case, but it might make things clearer if you explained why you want a specific version of python for when running "python", and why you have your own compiled version of python at all.23:26
Jordan_Uteemo: Even though you're using Ubuntu to make the USB, this is really a question for ##windows.23:27

stepnjumpI had a file yesterday on my both computers (synchronized with ubuntu one) and today I found out that the file is deleted on both computers. My question is twofold. 1- Is Ubuntu one safe to use? 2- How can I look at the audit trail to find out up until when the file was in my computer. Any app like that on ubuntu either at the terminal or in X. Thanks for your help in this.23:32

Jordan_Uredrocket: Can you link to this ga-bot? What does it do? There might be alternatives which would not cause these issues, and it sounds like the ideal thing for you to do is remove your compiled version of python, along with any other work-arounds you've tried, and go back to Ubuntu provided packages.23:37
redrocketJordan_U that's kind of what I was thinking as for the compiled packages. ty for your help. I'm going to work on that a bit.23:38

ramonTeemo, have you asked at the #Windows yet?23:44
Oerteemo, windows7 needs its own creator23:44
Jordan_Uteemo: This is irc.freenode.net, most of the users (including those in ##windows) are familiar with GNU/Linux. Ubuntu has no tools specifically for creating bootable Windows USBs, nor does it have any tools for creating bootable OSX USBs. Therefore anything you do is going to require a lot of manual work involving much more knowlage of Windows (or OSX) than of GNU/Linux.23:44
