| acerimmer | yaboo: no no no | 00:02 |

| acerimmer | yaboo: @Roy It is available for Windows and Linux sourceforge.net/projects/gptfdisk I tried to solve the problem from windows but couldn'g get it to work. Then I used ubuntu live cd and installed gdisk from the software centre. There was a GPT partition that I had to remove using gdisk and it worked after that. | 00:02 |

| urlin2u | acerimmer, that is a wubi | 00:03 |
| yaboo | urlin2u, at the moment,ubuntu is booted as live cd | 00:03 |

| yaboo | urlin2u, gpart does not see the win7 partition either | 00:05 |
| acerimmer | urlin2u: as I understand it, he halted due to no visible win7 parition | 00:06 |
| Explodingpiglets | does the webi version have an iso file in it? | 00:06 |

| urlin2u | yaboo, you have a guid set up that is the problem. | 00:06 |
| yaboo | urlin2u, they are the usb key | 00:06 |
| yaboo | sdb is the hard disk | 00:06 |
| Explodingpiglets | does the webi version have an iso file in it? | 00:07 |
| urlin2u | Explodingpiglets, the regular downloads have a wubi install option. | 00:07 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo your entire sdb is taken up with sdb1 - | 00:07 |

| daavis | hi! i installed Kde on ubuntu. used for a while and now I want to remove Kde. Is this safe? And why there is "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop " in the end of command? Can I just ignore this part of command? | 00:08 |
| acerimmer | urlin2u: exactly what I told him. | 00:08 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo - sda is a 500GB HDD, sdb is a 1GB drive, which sounds like a stick to me | 00:08 |
| yaboo | guys I booted live cd via usb stick, and hard disk is 500gb with 50gb used for win7 | 00:08 |
| hoppipoIIa | daavis: It's safe. :) Go to google type "psychocats" that blog has good tutorial for uninstalling KDE | 00:09 |

| yaboo | Guinness2702, yes other way around,sorry | 00:09 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, yes, that's sda2 - your windows partition | 00:09 |
| acerimmer | yaboo: and he did NOT install ubuntu as yet bcz the installer did not see his win7 partition. | 00:09 |
| urlin2u | acerimmer, cool the answers given by them are hard to extrapolate, thought it was installed ubuntu | 00:09 |
| daavis | hoppipoIIa, thanks | 00:09 |

| hoppipoIIa | daavis: No probs :) | 00:10 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, are you telling us that the partition manager in the ubuntu installer can't see sdb2?? | 00:10 |
| yaboo | acerimmer, thank you | 00:10 |
| acerimmer | yaboo: I think we can fix this without touching your win7. | 00:10 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, yes | 00:10 |
| BabyGirl | txomon|home, puppy linux,,or jolice clowd are small distributions | 00:10 |
| yaboo | acerimmer, I wish I knew how | 00:10 |
| kop | yaboo, don't you mean 50gb wasted on W7 ? | 00:10 |
| kop | ;-) | 00:10 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, right - well there's an error message telling you that fdisk doesn't support GPT - that's probably why it can't see it. | 00:11 |
| txomon|home | BabyGirl, ... lubuntu? | 00:11 |
| txomon|home | xubuntu? | 00:11 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, is it a new windows install - i.e. you don't mind deleting it and starting again? | 00:11 |
| txomon|home | I was thinking in ubuntu's flavours | 00:11 |
| mintman | go to windows shrink the drive and free up space | 00:11 |
| acerimmer | yaboo: note, I haven't done this so we're relying on the article. You need to live boot your usb, install gdisk and fix the gpt partition. Then you should be able to install. | 00:11 |

| txomon|home | BabyGirl, will check it | 00:12 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, can do if need be reinstall win7, why | 00:13 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo - it's on the screendump you put on imagebin - "WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected ...... | 00:13 |
| acerimmer | yaboo: problem is NOT win7. It's a partition issue - which is fixable. | 00:13 |
| urlin2u | yaboo, acerimmer is correct here. | 00:14 |
| BabyGirl | txomon|home, depends on what u do on the PC is the distribution u need | 00:14 |
| kop | yaboo, & there are some things that O_o just won't do so I have a M$ VM just for orifice ... | 00:14 |
| mintman | BabyGirl: what crunchbang runs a version of ubuntu, linux mint and so on thats actual fact.... | 00:14 |
| MegaViper | #ubuntu! | 00:14 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, - my suggestion to you is that the simplest option is to delete all the partitions on sda1 (in the ubuntu installer) and re-create the paritions (still in the ubuntu installer) - this will of course remove your windows install, and you'd lose any and all data you have on it, but if you don't have anything you need to keep on the windows parition, then this is probably the simplest way to do it | 00:14 |
| yaboo | kop its more hp, cannot update bios without win7 partition | 00:15 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, from what others are saying, you may be able to fix the partition table without throwing windows away, so maybe listen to them first | 00:15 |
| crond | Do I have to reinstall my system to enable LUKS? | 00:15 |

| * kop gets it ... still witing for a .jp translator | 00:15 | |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, yes, so delete it and install it again, but use ubuntu to partition the disk | 00:16 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, will try | 00:16 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, it goes without saying, be sure you don't have anything valuable you want to keep first | 00:17 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, its a fresh install, with no drivers etc | 00:17 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, I'm assuming you do have windows install disk and so on | 00:17 |
| txomon|home | BabyGirl, I am going #crunchbang to ask, as it seems to be a very good distribution, will check it | 00:17 |

| Juest | the menus are just essential -.- | 00:24 |

| fil | glosoli, as for the name... true! :) but it installed with transmission, so i guessed that the --purge thing would work.. "And I think you know what for is symbol "*" used ?" I do, yet the point of asking, no , i dont... :).. the autoremove does in a way a "*" search based on the name given? | 00:33 |

| Juest | urlin2u: the problem here, is that i see APP menubars EMPTY | 00:40 |
| ActionParsnip | kop: and Oneiric, or Precise? | 00:41 |
| Juest | urlin2u: it looks like a tiny line with nothing on it | 00:41 |
| ActionParsnip | kop: could try Debian too if you have the time | 00:41 |
| Juest | urlin2u: ok, so? | 00:41 |

| yaboo | Guinness2702, erased the disk to get rid of gpt | 00:42 |
| yaboo | reinstalling win7, then ubuntu | 00:43 |
| Juest | urlin2u: hey | 00:43 |
| txomon|home | I am currently speaking with lubuntu guys, to see if there is any way to get the lubuntu-core running, then see if that is enought, then going xubuntu, same thing, and at the end, crunchbang | 00:43 |
| urlin2u | Juest, yours look like this with home open? | 00:43 |
| urlin2u | http://imagebin.org/194980 | 00:43 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo - before you reinstall win, run fdisk -l again, and check the warning message has gone | 00:43 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, ....otherwise you are wasting a lot of time | 00:43 |
| === _B00_ is now known as _B00 | ||
| Juest | the only thing that changes there is, where's the explorer menu bar, that's is empty, is a small line with nothing on it instead of file,edit,etc | 00:44 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, yeah checked and looked ok | 00:44 |
| ActionParsnip | mintman: how do you mean? | 00:44 |
| Juest | urlin2u: so is almost the same | 00:44 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, cool, looks like you solved it then :) | 00:44 |
| urlin2u | Juest, take a screen shot of yours | 00:44 |
| Juest | urlin2u: | 00:44 |
| Juest | with wat¡? | 00:44 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, guess no choice reinstalled | 00:44 |
| urlin2u | Juest, hit the prtsc button | 00:44 |
| ActionParsnip | kop: lenny is old dude, just like the releases you are having success with | 00:44 |
| yaboo | guess wasted a hour of time | 00:45 |
| Juest | urlin2u: nevermind, i opened screenshot | 00:45 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, also, at some point, you may wanna try wine or virtualbox to see if you can flash bios that way - may save yourself having to have a separate windows install, if that's all you need it for | 00:45 |
| urlin2u | Juest, paste it here and post the url http://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 00:45 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, googles and found, cannot, hence why I need the win7 partition, also use it for dev work | 00:46 |
| yaboo | pity virtualbox cannot use the real win7 install | 00:46 |
| htmlinprogress | be back later | 00:46 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, yeah, i though they might not be able to do stuff that low level...ahh well, worth a shot | 00:46 |
| ActionParsnip | yaboo: it can | 00:47 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, something more to do with amd and hp | 00:47 |
| urlin2u | yaboo, W7 runs in vbox on mine but I'm not using it for gaming no 3d here. | 00:47 |
| ActionParsnip | yaboo: its just known to cause data corruption sometimes | 00:47 |
| Juest | urlin2u: http://imagebin.org/194981 | 00:47 |
| Raymond_ | what is the command to extract the driver from the broadcom4306 using firmware b43 installer | 00:47 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, also worth noting that some bios flashers come with bootable disks, so you may be able to do it that way....ah, hp...okay, well maybe out of luck there :\ | 00:47 |
| yaboo | urlin2u, yes I run win7 with virtualbox on my mbp | 00:47 |
| mintman | Juest: wait did ubuntu drop gnome and running ubuntu 11.10 with unity only?? sorry been about 1 yr since I have played with distros . I stopped doing distro updates about 9 months ago with so many distros having interputions do to gnome3, grub2 etc... | 00:47 |
| urlin2u | Juest, you change the theme? | 00:48 |
| Guinness2702 | urlin2u, he needs to do low level BIOS stuff - might not work in vbox | 00:48 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, wish hp had it for the dm1-4016au, but they do not | 00:48 |
| ActionParsnip | yaboo: I'd ask in #vbox | 00:48 |
| urlin2u | Guinness2702, true I thought they meant in general | 00:48 |
| Juest | mintman: yeah, and gnome3 shell not included but unity gnome 3 | 00:48 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, well, you got 500GB and a win licence already, so no great loss | 00:48 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, true, only need win7 for dreamweaver | 00:49 |
| Juest | urlin2u: hmm? im using adwalta for gtk, clearlooks for wm, and humanity dark for icons | 00:49 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, wow, do they still make that lol | 00:49 |
| scientes_ | <scientes_> I filled a SSD with a GPT and btrfs partition, and now grub2 wont install | 00:49 |
| scientes_ | <scientes_> how do i add the grub-specific partition | 00:49 |
| scientes_ | <scientes_> and do i need to reformat to get there? | 00:49 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, its good for quick prototyping still | 00:49 |
| ActionParsnip | yaboo: there are plenty of WYSIWYG HTML apps.. | 00:49 |
| ActionParsnip | yaboo: native to Linux | 00:49 |
| yaboo | ActionParsnip, as good as dreamweaver | 00:49 |
| Juest | urlin2u | 00:49 |
| urlin2u | Juest, I wonder if that is the tweak that is the problem, I would bet on it, not sur though. | 00:49 |
| ActionParsnip | yaboo: I only know that they exist. Try a few | 00:50 |
| urlin2u | sure* | 00:50 |
| mintman | Juest: If I install ubuntu 11.10 I can get cinnimon for gnome 3 | 00:50 |
| Juest | hmm, so?, might i change theme?? | 00:50 |
| Juest | idk | 00:50 |
| yaboo | ActionParsnip, tried them, and not good for rapid prototyping | 00:50 |
| ActionParsnip | mintman: depends on the PPA, cinammon isn't supported here | 00:50 |
| Juest | mintman: yep | 00:50 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, yeah, I used to use it for the same thing | 00:50 |
| acerimmer | yaboo: and all - i used gptsync to boot my gpt enabled triple boot dell with win7, osx, ubuntu. FYI | 00:50 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, and what do you use now | 00:50 |
| Juest | mintman: or just instead, get pure gnome 3} | 00:50 |
| Juest | mintman: fedora 16 | 00:50 |
| ActionParsnip | yaboo: are you saying they aren't as good because you aren't familiar with the UI? | 00:50 |
| Guinness2702 | yaboo, I don't lol - don't even work for that company any more | 00:51 |
| yaboo | ActionParsnip, no, there have all the features of dreamweaver, just not the as you write it draws feature | 00:51 |
| Juest | urlin2u: and the dialog ui is drop inside window, like mac | 00:51 |
| ActionParsnip | yaboo: even bluefish? | 00:51 |
| Guinness2702 | anyway, long past bedtime | 00:51 |
| Guinness2702 | nn all | 00:51 |
| yaboo | ActionParsnip, bluefish is close, maybe next year | 00:52 |
| yaboo | Guinness2702, thanks for your help | 00:52 |
| mintman | ActionParsnip: what do u mean no support for cinnimon ?? I heard linux mint developed it. I dont understand ubuntu uses grub 2 developed by fedora. Why no support??? | 00:52 |
| Guinness2702 | np :) | 00:52 |
| urlin2u | Juest, I don't really have a fix for this not sure what adwalta for gtk is | 00:52 |
| odias | hello | 00:53 |
| Juest | mintman: dude, fedora uses GNOME 3, debian uses gnome 3 classic, and,there's cinnamon support, is unofficial trough | 00:53 |
| ActionParsnip | mintman: mint has its own support channels. Its not supported here | 00:53 |
| Juest | mintman: you noob | 00:53 |
| ActionParsnip | mintman: we only support the packages from the ubuntu repos | 00:53 |
| odias | algum brasileiro | 00:53 |

| Juest | fedora is much like ubuntu | 00:54 |
| Juest | flavors | 00:54 |
| DarkMukke | does the latested ubuntu support catalist drivers ? | 00:54 |
| ActionParsnip | Juest: there are KDE ISOs too | 00:54 |
| mintman | Juest: lol noob not in this life time. lol linux for 18+ years . Was just asking about support not define what current developement is | 00:54 |
| Juest | ActionParsnip: I KNOW! | 00:55 |
| DarkMukke | s/catalist/catalyst | 00:55 |
| ActionParsnip | Juest: exectly, they have one with gnome, one with kde, neither ISO is default | 00:55 |
| Juest | oh lol | 00:55 |
| Juest | yeah | 00:55 |
| Juest | just | 00:55 |
| Juest | iso flavors, like ubuntu flavors, kubuntu, xubuntu,etc | 00:55 |
| urlin2u | Juest, where did you get the adwaita and what instructions did you use | 00:55 |
| ActionParsnip | Juest: just waht? That gnome is only default if you download the ISO where gnome is default, then yes | 00:56 |
| Juest | urlin2u: dude, adwalta, is part of gnome 3 theme | 00:56 |
| Juest | check appareance, it should be there | 00:56 |
| urlin2u | Juest, it is not in my synaptic | 00:56 |
| === Gskellig|away is now known as Gskellig | ||

| Gskellig | asdf | 00:56 |
| trism | urlin2u: it is in gnome-themes-standard | 00:56 |
| yaboo | using unity gets some getting used too, but once you use it, you can understand the logic where there coming from | 00:56 |
| urlin2u | Juest, ah I see I don't use gnome 3 | 00:56 |
| Juest | urlin2u: wat lol, just, adwalta is the default gnome 3 UI | 00:57 |

| evernoob | some of ubuntus decisions recently make me despair | 01:49 |
| platius | OKTOKT, install it from the software center | 01:49 |
| [R] | rsvp: a "live cd" and a "live dvd"... there is no difference | 01:49 |
| evernoob | having said that, you can get 800MB CDRs | 01:49 |
| [R] | evernoob: no one is forcing you to use ubuntu... | 01:49 |
| evernoob | and no-one is forcing me not to air my opinions | 01:50 |
| [R] | lol | 01:50 |
| evernoob | unity is a ferkin disaster | 01:50 |
| [R] | complaining in here that you dont like the decisions isn't really going to acomplish anything | 01:50 |
| Klojum | <[R]> : i understand it is trying to mount, but can I somehow make the timeout time shorter? | 01:50 |
| evernoob | it makes me feel better | 01:50 |
| [R] | rofl | 01:50 |
| OKTOKT | platius: Thanks, I'll see if it'll do what I want. | 01:50 |
| acerimmer | not to mention ANYONE can spin their OWN linux... | 01:51 |
| evernoob | there is a difference if you don't have a DVD drive | 01:51 |
| platius | OKTOKT, doesn't do much but might be what you need | 01:51 |
| evernoob | I'm way to stupid to do that acerimmer | 01:51 |
| evernoob | too | 01:51 |

| OKTOKT | platius: It looks like startupmanager only handles screen res, timeout, and default selection | 01:53 |
| OKTOKT | platius: My list is about 18 deep. I'd like to give them more logical names than the kernel versions | 01:53 |
| rsvp | I can write an ISO image as CD, but not as DVD -- there's a big difference -- and I don't want to peel a disc off one of those Linux magazines :) | 01:53 |

| urlin2u | OKTOKT, just out of curiosity whay are you using startup manager and with which ubuntu release? | 01:54 |
| urlin2u | why* | 01:55 |

| rsvp | Q2: re Ubuntu certified hardware, http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog -- why is NOT monitors listed? Perhaps the manufacturer is not critical, or all screens are compatible? | 01:55 |
| |Anthony| | why does the software center fail in the live cd? | 01:55 |
| [R] | rsvp: vga is vga... hdmi is hdmi | 01:55 |
| Klojum | OKTOKT: afaik, startupmanager is okay for the older Ubuntu/Linux version using Grub1, with Grub2 it's safer to use "grub-customizer" ( https://launchpad.net/~danielrichter2007/+archive/grub-customizer ) | 01:55 |
| [R] | rsvp: the computer could care less about it | 01:56 |
| urlin2u | |Anthony|, why are you installing with a live cd? | 01:56 |
| |Anthony| | to use gparted | 01:56 |
| zacarias | I tried making backups with BackInTime. It looks nice. It has scheduled backups, but apparently I have to launch it in order to have the scheduled backups done. Am I wrong? Is there a backup app that can run the backups in the background without my help and without me having to think about it and launching it? | 01:56 |
| |Anthony| | and add ntfs support | 01:56 |
| urlin2u | |Anthony|, it s already there. | 01:56 |

| pangolin | dev__: what version of ubuntu? | 01:57 |
| dev__ | 11.10 | 01:57 |
| rsvp | [R], excellent! but how Ubuntu know the correct screen size? | 01:57 |
| |Anthony| | but regardless of my reason urlin2u, why does it fail? | 01:57 |
| pangolin | apt-get install gnome-shell | 01:58 |
| urlin2u | OKTOKT, okay but at some point not sure which release it stopped following updates of kernels, and people were stuck with no boots. | 01:58 |
| pangolin | dev__: apt-get install gnome-shell | 01:58 |
| dev__ | I believe I've tried that but I'll try again........ | 01:58 |
| [R] | rsvp: monitors report their resolution | 01:58 |
| urlin2u | |Anthony|, you need to go to software sorces and untick the cd and run a update. | 01:58 |

| pangolin | dev__: click on the session button it should be listed. What do you see in the session list? | 01:59 |
| dies_irae | does disabling youtube vid comments save RAM???? | 01:59 |
| dev__ | Only 2 options, none of them Gnome. | 01:59 |
| dev__ | pangolin, I'll double check to see if something changed, BRB. | 02:00 |
| phong_ | [R], then why would anyone run as physical run? | 02:00 |

| dies_irae | Out of memory: Kill process 5916 (firefox) score 360 or sacrifice child | 02:00 |

| cyberbob | hi all, I am from solaris world. Used to play with solaris zones. while in case of testing purpose I am using virtualbox. Today I was reading a page regarding OS supported by KVM and amazed to see the list of the OS supported. now my question is that if i use kvm on my desktop "an ubuntu machine" does it work in a seprate layer rather than using the phenomena of zones in jailed environment as they used base of host OS. or it works in the similar way as jailed | 02:00 |
| urlin2u | [R], now,now ,now. :) | 02:01 |
| phong_ | ok, how to list all running processes? | 02:01 |
| [R] | cyberbob: virtualbox is a virtual machine... | 02:01 |
| [R] | phong_: ps | 02:01 |
| phong_ | do they have virtualbox for linux? | 02:02 |
| OKTOKT | urlin2u: Yeah I've had it go south on me before. heh. | 02:02 |
| Juest | phong_: pstree or ps ax | 02:02 |
| phong_ | or vmware for linux? | 02:02 |
| [R] | phong_: of course | 02:02 |
| [R] | phong_: of course | 02:02 |
| phong_ | oh | 02:02 |
| cyberbob | yes phong_ there is virtualbox . . | 02:02 |
| auk | hello i seem to have a google redirect virus affecting my firefox 9 installation on ubuntu, default from the repos... has anyone else heard of such a thing? | 02:02 |
| phong_ | free? | 02:02 |
| [R] | of course virtualbox for linux is free | 02:02 |
| cyberbob | yes offcourse . . there ose is free . . | 02:02 |
| Juest | phong_: of couse xD | 02:02 |
| urlin2u | OKTOKT, I just use supergrub to get into a os to reload from there most of the time much faster. | 02:02 |
| [deXter] | of course :) | 02:02 |
| phong_ | then should vmware go bankrupcy? | 02:02 |
| [R] | auk: i highly doubt you have a virus | 02:03 |
| phong_ | if VB is free, why vmware cost for it? | 02:03 |
| Juest | umm, i got some grub problems | 02:03 |
| auk | a few years ago i remember getting rid of a google redirect virus that iirc had infected the router, and so was affecting all the comptuers | 02:03 |

| phong_ | sorry man | 02:03 |
| [R] | phong_: if liniux is free, should microsoft go bankrupt? | 02:03 |
| phong_ | i just want to know the different | 02:03 |
| phong_ | 1 = freee 2= cost to it | 02:03 |
| urlin2u | Juest, what are the problems. | 02:03 |
| auk | [R], i know it's weird but it doesn't seem to be affecting the router... as the other computers in this lab (hostel) are not getting redirects | 02:03 |
| OKTOKT | urlin2u: I'll download and burna disc ASAP. looks like a great little tool. | 02:03 |
| phong_ | well...is vmware better? | 02:04 |
| phong_ | since there is a cost to it. | 02:04 |
| dies_irae | phong_: ... what kinda question are those | 02:04 |
| OerHeks | phong_, stop the silly questions please ... | 02:04 |
| Juest | urlin2u: it looks like the monitor goes Out of Range when GRUB starts, i have the grub ubuntu 11.10 comes with not grub2, grub-pc | 02:04 |
| Juest | on boot | 02:04 |
| Juest | and | 02:04 |
| urlin2u | OKTOKT, I use a earlier version, but suspect the ones offered work fine, for awhile they were not. | 02:04 |
| auk | [R], wait it could be an extension i recently installed... | 02:04 |
| [R] | auk: lol | 02:05 |
| Juest | urlin2u: the system does not resume after successful suspension | 02:05 |
| phong_ | [R], ok i want to try vb, where can i get it | 02:05 |
| auk | [R], as chrome isn't having any probs either | 02:05 |
| dies_irae | phong_: here's a neat trick, for every question you come up, put it in google search. you'd be surprise!! | 02:05 |
| [R] | phong_: you can find their website on google | 02:05 |
| phong_ | ok | 02:05 |
| Juest | phong_: stop asking here, GOOGLE INSTEAD | 02:05 |
| auk | [R], i've developed a rather lax trust level with anything that's on addons.mozilla | 02:05 |
| urlin2u | Juest, not sure about the resolution but grub-pc is grub 2 and comes with 11.10 | 02:05 |

| phong_ | nice | 02:06 |
| ActionParsnip | !info virtualbox-ose | phong_ | 02:06 |
| urlin2u | Juest, your suspend might be due to a swap not being big enough or there, you have it equal in size to the ram | 02:06 |
| cyberbob | ActionParsnip: there .ose version is in repo's oracle is money sawy like always .. | 02:06 |
| ubottu | phong_: virtualbox-ose (source: virtualbox): transitional package for virtualbox. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.1.2-dfsg-1ubuntu1 (oneiric), package size 21 kB, installed size 132 kB (Only available for amd64 i386 all) | 02:06 |

| cyberbob | yes, that is right. . | 02:07 |

| phong_ | brb | 02:07 |
| Juest | urlin2u: i have a 1.1gb swap on a 1gb pc | 02:07 |
| phong_ | acerimmer, does it matter if i already have vmware workstation? will it conflict? | 02:08 |
| phong_ | currently downloading | 02:08 |
| urlin2u | Juest, hmm, it seems that some setups don't work, but I can't really confrim that just observations, always has worked for me, you use a key prompt rather then the power button to bring it back? | 02:08 |
| Juest | urlin2u: actually, swap is eating 19,1mb and memory, is almosy 500mb | 02:08 |
| Guest43886 | hola | 02:08 |
| Juest | urlin2u: not even keyboard | 02:09 |
| acerimmer | phong_: vm and vb are different platforms. should not cause problems. | 02:09 |
| phong_ | ok | 02:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Juest: ideally you want double the ram amouunt for swap in a system with less than 2Gb RAM | 02:09 |
| urlin2u | Juest, you can set the swappiness higher so more ram is used. | 02:09 |
| ActionParsnip | urlin2u: lower swappiness makes more ram be used | 02:10 |
| phong_ | acerimmer, i got the answer: lmgtfy.com = let me google this for you | 02:10 |
| urlin2u | !swappiness | 02:10 |
| Juest | urlin2u: ok, gotta restart on livecd and adjust partitons, how do i disable swap on livecd so i can resize swap? | 02:10 |
| acerimmer | phong_: ah, you DO know how to do your own research! | 02:10 |
| phong_ | yeah | 02:10 |
| Juest | how do i disable enterly linux HDD usage on live cd? | 02:10 |
| phong_ | acerimmer, i'm learning | 02:10 |
| urlin2u | Juest, just right click then swap off in gparted. | 02:10 |
| Juest | urlin2u: ad about the linux partition? | 02:11 |

| urlin2u | Juest, on the swap partition. | 02:11 |
| === Gskellig is now known as Gskellig|away | ||
| Juest | because some of the stuff is loaded from the ext part | 02:11 |
| urlin2u | Juest, yes you may need to reset the uuid in fstab to have it auto mount. | 02:12 |
| urlin2u | after you resize | 02:12 |
| ActionParsnip | could use a swap file instead.. | 02:13 |
| urlin2u | Juest, the swap is just for extra stuff, not anything you can't loose | 02:13 |

| ActionParsnip | zacarias: if you can call it from CLI, you could cron the command as root.. | 02:14 |
| urlin2u | ActionParsnip, I hear that but I don't it regularly, I have a good cash flow. | 02:14 |
| ActionParsnip | urlin2u: i'd just max the ram on my mobo, makes ram near redundant ;) | 02:15 |
| zacarias | ActionParsnip: How do I do that? | 02:15 |
| DasEi | zacarias: whole system or just folders/files ? first one, set upa cronjob, second use things like unison or a trigger once a certain uuid or a host is connected | 02:15 |
| urlin2u | Juest, I wondered if you would, no biggie you probably have a extended around the main so you will move both if so. | 02:15 |
| ActionParsnip | zacarias: not sure, I just have a cron'd job which copies the stuff I care about in $HOME to a firewire drive | 02:17 |
| urlin2u | ActionParsnip, I have a netbook I have the max ram 2 gigs, i use the flash thumb flash if I run a vm that needs al ot of memory | 02:17 |
| zacarias | DasEi: I'm thinking about a whole system. A trigger would be nice. How wolud I set up this trigger? | 02:17 |
| ActionParsnip | urlin2u: ive not needed more than 2Gb ram for anything :) | 02:17 |
| ActionParsnip | urlin2u: except work that is ;) | 02:18 |
| urlin2u | ActionParsnip, it can be done in other ways as you suggest a file, but the I'm lazy. | 02:19 |
| DasEi | zacarias: whole sys would be niceto have the source readonly; do you want toback up to anexternal hd? | 02:20 |

| urlin2u | Juest, what's up? | 02:21 |
| zacarias | DasEi: yes, I'm backing up to an external HD | 02:21 |
| urlin2u | Juest, here is the swap wiki if needed, which also has the instructions to making a swap file https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq | 02:23 |

| txomon|home | hi, I am issuing a strange bug when doing an installation from ubuntu mini iso. (or netboot). If I decide that I just want the lubuntu-core (the last choice, is for installing the packages/services you want), when I reboot from a finished installations, there is not launched the X env | 02:25 |
| zacarias | DasEi: is tha a command to run in the terminal? | 02:25 |
| phong_ | can virtualbox access host folder? | 02:26 |
| [deXter] | phong_, of course | 02:26 |
| phong_ | let say i want to save something in virtual box to a host folder directly | 02:26 |
| phong_ | oh okay thanks | 02:26 |
| phong_ | let me do install now | 02:26 |
| oscar76 | running 10.04, if I dist-upgrade, can I keep working with enlightenment DM? | 02:27 |
| Chipzzz | zacarias: udevadm is in package udev | 02:27 |
| DasEi | zacarias: yes, I have it here,so it'll be part of a metapackage, you can create udev rules for certain events, like plugging a certain hd (they all get their unique identifiers) andso either trigger actionsor monitor withsaidcommand | 02:27 |
| trism | txomon|home: lubuntu-core doesn't include a display manager, try installing lxdm | 02:29 |
| txomon|home | trism, what is it supposed to do? | 02:29 |
| trism | txomon|home: lxdm is the default display manager in lubuntu-desktop in oneiric (you could also use lightdm or gdm or whatever you wanted) | 02:30 |
| txomon|home | trism, If i do xinit and startlubuntu, they get launched | 02:30 |
| trism | txomon|home: the display manager is the screen that comes up asking for your username/password on a normal install | 02:30 |
| txomon|home | trism, I know, but I thought that got installed within the lubuntu-core | 02:31 |
| scientes | i copied my system from one computer to another | 02:32 |
| scientes | except i copied an *unencrypted* home, while i had been using ecryptfs | 02:32 |
| trism | txomon|home: no, lubuntu-desktop depends on the display manager, and other stuff, lubuntu-core just has the basic stuff like xorg, openbox and lxpanel | 02:32 |
| scientes | i can't log in now | 02:32 |
| DasEi | zacarias: but if you want a whole system backup, not just user data, things like dd from either safe mode or tools like ghost for linux are better, dd won't let you do partial backups, you need to specify yourneeds more | 02:32 |
| scientes | how do i turn off ecrptfs so that i can log in | 02:32 |
| txomon|home | trism, and lxdm isn't basic? will suppose not... | 02:33 |
| Juest | scientes: have more users there? | 02:33 |
| === Gskellig is now known as Gskellig|away | ||

| txomon|home | trism, Thank you very much! | 02:36 |
| DasEi | zacarias: so, space of external presumed, can have an image of it, which later can be played back, disadvantage is , you do it as a whole,if youjust sync folders /partitions not in use, can just add the changes occuredsince last backup | 02:36 |

| Da|Mummy | what happens if i took ownership of a drive during format, and now i delete the OS that has the ownership of said drive? | 02:46 |
| peqhpfo | Please help me - I have issues with my input devices (namely the keyboard and mouse) | 02:46 |
| web4free | I also want to know this | 02:46 |
| peqhpfo | I get locked in keyboard or mouse | 02:47 |
| peqhpfo | And it is REALLY annoying and ruins the functionality | 02:47 |

| Da|Mummy | peqhpfo, how did you open this app, or even boot an OS is mouser/KB arent working? | 02:52 |

| jrib | fluxdev_: pick your favorite language and start reading? | 02:56 |
| Da|Mummy | you have a choice, _pg_ try xubuntu | 02:56 |

| _pg_ | how can anyone use ubuntu and workspaces, but not drag and drop windows between them? | 02:59 |
| _pg_ | how is that not the default behavior | 02:59 |
| Da|Mummy | you know you can turn off unity during ubuntu startup, maybe try without unity and see how workplaces interract | 02:59 |
| txomon|home | its a SIS sound card | 02:59 |
| DasEi | fluxdev: this channel specific support on ubuntu is given, define hacking ? coding ? else google hackthissite , no objective of this channel | 02:59 |

| _pg_ | yes. plain old ubuntu. out of the box | 03:00 |
| _pg_ | whatever the deault is. unity/gnome | 03:00 |

| peter__ | Can someone help me with my KB/mouse issue please? | 03:02 |
| DasEi | txomon|home: so driver is obviously found and used, fine; are the channels unmuted ? | 03:02 |
| _pg_ | lynx7os5: that works. im still sad about DnD though. is unity the new default or not? everyone seems suprised im using it | 03:02 |
| peter__ | This time, don't make me ctrl + alt +4 | 03:02 |
| peter__ | :) | 03:03 |
| txomon|home | DasEi, I am rechecking that | 03:03 |
| txomon|home | have appeared a pair of bars more... | 03:03 |
| peter__ | I have issues interacting with windows. Sometimes I get locked into only use my keyboard or mouse and I cannot use Ubuntu properly because of it | 03:04 |
| peter__ | I have had this issue with Debian | 03:04 |
| peter__ | Any ideas? | 03:04 |
| === marm is now known as johnmn3 | ||
| DasEi | txomon|home: mind the icons, if using alsamixergui, and main and pcm upper 0 | 03:04 |
| widewake | Game issue. Whenever i minimize cs.16, or URT another fps, i cannot bring it back full screen. It only shows a quarter of the gamescreen. any idears | 03:04 |
| peter__ | And I have not googled this problem, because it would be a herculean task with a bum mouse and bum keyboard | 03:04 |
| txomon|home | DasEi, just alsamixer command | 03:04 |
| txomon|home | 2 more bars appeared... | 03:05 |
| lynx7os5 | _pg_: im not sure.. maybe this might help.. http://library.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/shell-workspaces-movewindow.html.en | 03:05 |
| === marm is now known as johnmn3 | ||
| txomon|home | might be because I had chromium opened, and mean while, installed alsa-base and alsa-tools? | 03:05 |

| PeterCody | god, every peter is already taken >< | 03:06 |
| _pg_ | lynx7os5: thatnks! i will check that out | 03:06 |
| PeterCody | Also, it apprears to be a window problem. I can only type in this box and play with the side bar | 03:07 |
| _pg_ | does ubuntu use gnome 3? | 03:07 |
| txomon|home | DasEi, seems to be fixed | 03:07 |
| _pg_ | cause this doc doesnt seem to match | 03:07 |
| pangolin | _pg_: ubuntu 11.10 does. | 03:08 |
| DasEi | txomon|home: nice to hear | 03:08 |
| DasEi | :) | 03:08 |
| txomon|home | DasEi, really don't know what happened... :D | 03:08 |
| _pg_ | pangolin: ever move windows btw workspaces? | 03:08 |
| txomon|home | will suppose that was all | 03:08 |
| pangolin | _pg_: I haven't. i use one desktop | 03:08 |
| ActionParsnip | _pg_: Oneiric and later do if you use the Gnome based Ubuntu | 03:08 |
| DasEi | txomon|home: it's often muted either from defaults or another program like the gui or volume manager | 03:09 |
| _pg_ | pangolin: dont try it its apparently impossible! | 03:09 |
| ActionParsnip | pangolin: same | 03:09 |
| PeterCody | so.... no ideas about my interface issues? | 03:09 |
| pangolin | _pg_: report a bug at launchpad.net | 03:09 |
| _pg_ | ActionParsnip: DnD windows btw workspaces, whats the magic? | 03:09 |
| PeterCody | I hate to be annoying, but you get annoyed when all you can use is IRC xD | 03:09 |
| ActionParsnip | _pg_: you can use Compiz to show all desktops and drag app windows between easily | 03:09 |
| Da|Mummy | _pg_, i keep telling you, try xubuntu, youll be pleasantly surprised | 03:09 |
| _pg_ | pangolin: its not a bug its a devilishly hidden setting | 03:09 |
| _pg_ | ActionParsnip: does ccsm work in latst ubuntu? whatever I change doesnt seem to do anything. is Unity interfering? | 03:10 |
| pangolin | _pg_: in gconf perhaps you can find it but don't ask me where or how. | 03:10 |
| ActionParsnip | _pg_: yes | 03:10 |
| _pg_ | ActionParsnip: can I not use compiz and unity? | 03:10 |
| ActionParsnip | _pg_: its the expo plugin | 03:11 |
| ActionParsnip | _pg_: you don't have to, you can use XFCE, KDE or even LXDE and Unity will not be loaded | 03:11 |
| Da|Mummy | what happens if i took ownership of a drive during format, and now i delete the OS that has the ownership of said drive? | 03:12 |
| ActionParsnip | _pg_: LXDE and XFCE are all coded using GTK3.2 in Oneiric and later | 03:12 |
| _pg_ | ActionParsnip: I dont mind Untiy, but if it is making it so I cant Dnd windows into workspaces then i guess ill have to use something else | 03:12 |
| micahcavaleri | Can someone help me find my PLL? I don't want to open up my laptop. I have a Dell XPS M140 with Intel 915GM chipset. | 03:12 |
| _pg_ | ActionParsnip: can the two coexist? do i just need to find the magic setting in ccsm? | 03:12 |
| ActionParsnip | _pg_: its not unity stopping that, you need the expo plugin | 03:12 |
| _pg_ | ActionParsnip: if it shows up in ccsm, does that mean I have it installed? | 03:13 |
| * txomon|home loves thinking about you christina grimmie and sam tsui | 03:13 | |
| micahcavaleri | I was hoping for an easy-to-use Ubuntu app to find my PLL. Any ideas? | 03:13 |
| ActionParsnip | _pg_: you will get this: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_lh7jyvHkwS4/TOgEBVucF6I/AAAAAAAAA_s/cUSJWTWmP8A/s1600/unity+expo.png and you can drag app windows between as you expect | 03:13 |
| * txomon|home .>> title is "thinking about you" XD | 03:13 | |
| ActionParsnip | _pg_: yes but if it is unchecked the plugin is not enabled | 03:13 |
| _pg_ | ActionParsnip: i swear ive fiddled every box in the expo plugin but ill keep looking there. | 03:14 |
| _pg_ | just to recap- im clicking workspaes in the dock on the left. it shows me all my workspaces, and my windows are all trapped in the first one | 03:14 |
| ActionParsnip | _pg_: press the shortcut assigned and it will show | 03:15 |

| _pg_ | ra4king: top will give you an idea. like activity monitor | 03:20 |
| acerimmer | ra4king: pretty sure it's in the default kernel | 03:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ra4king: if you install lshw-gtk you can see it in a prettier UI | 03:21 |

| ra4king | dufuses? | 03:21 |
| ActionParsnip | ra4king: idiots, morons etc | 03:22 |
| acerimmer | ra4king: I just ran it on my virtualbox box server. it's there. | 03:22 |
| ra4king | ah | 03:22 |
| ra4king | how do i save the output of lshw to a text file? | 03:24 |
| ra4king | i haven't used the terminal in quite a while | 03:24 |
| ActionParsnip | ra4king: sudo lshw > ~/output.txt | 03:24 |
| ra4king | ah the > symbols thanks | 03:24 |
| ActionParsnip | ra4king: or you could install pastebinit and run: sudo lshw | pastebinit then view the URL on a desktop PC ;) | 03:24 |

| ra4king | wow | 03:27 |
| ActionParsnip | ra4king: thats enough if you expect only 1 or 2 connections | 03:27 |

| ra4king | it's a laptop btw | 03:28 |
| ActionParsnip | ra4king: but they arent concurrent, which is key | 03:28 |

| ra4king | jakk: WTF | 03:32 |

| geerrr | Hello what is the command to chmod all files and the command to chmod all directories? | 03:32 |
| tripelb | ra4king, a server will run on just a little bit of ram? | 03:32 |
| Thraspic | .. | 03:32 |
| Juest | geerrr: just use wildcards on the command | 03:32 |
| ra4king | tripelb: it used to have 256MB of RAM | 03:32 |
| ActionParsnip | geerrr: the chod command for files and folders is the same | 03:32 |
| ra4king | and it used to run Windows XP | 03:32 |
| ActionParsnip | geerrr: linux sees tham both as files | 03:32 |
| ra4king | but then it suddenly wouldn't boot, the error said one of the memory cards were faulty | 03:32 |
| ra4king | so now it has 1x128MB stick :) | 03:33 |
| Juest | ActionParsnip: no, because of the first line of the perm line | 03:33 |
| tripelb | ra4king, I thought ubuntu needed 512. I just tried it on a 504M machine and as soon as I started a browser, fail. | 03:33 |
| Juest | l,d or - | 03:33 |
| ra4king | tripelb: Ubuntu SERVER | 03:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Juest: if you chmod a folder and chmod a file, the command is the same | 03:33 |
| ra4king | it's VERY minimal | 03:33 |
| geerrr | ActionParsnip: I need all folders to be 755 and all files to be 644. chmod -R 644 public_html will change all permissions | 03:33 |
| Juest | tripelb: try debian, live cd needs min 64mb | 03:33 |
| tripelb | ra4king, sorry I'm so naive. So a server is lighter than using a browser. | 03:34 |
| ra4king | tripelb: extremely, since the server is only a terminal | 03:34 |
| ActionParsnip | geerrr: if you want to set folders different you will need a find command to show all folders then chown on the found folders | 03:34 |
| ra4king | no GUI at all | 03:34 |
| Juest | ra4king: but debian is better suited also :) | 03:35 |
| ActionParsnip | geerrr: but chmod the whole lot as 644 then the folder can be set to 755 after, it'll be quicker | 03:35 |
| Juest | live | 03:35 |
| Juest | and only needs 64mb for lcd | 03:35 |
| tripelb | Juest: I love you. I did not know that. I'll do that. I just downloaded lubuntu but debian might be more simple. Oh is that without a gui? (doing this for someone who will not use a terminal, hey I can only do barely anything on one.) | 03:35 |
| Juest | tripelb: can be | 03:35 |

| gremlin133 | Hi everyone, I'm trying to setup a virtual ethernet interface on ubuntu server 11.10, and am getting this error message: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address | 03:56 |
| ActionParsnip | gremlin133: may help http://www.wantlinux.net/2009/04/ubuntu-subinterfaces/ | 03:57 |
| ActionParsnip | gremlin133: I assume you mean subinterfaces | 03:57 |
| gremlin133 | ActionParsnip: yeah | 03:58 |
| gremlin133 | ActionParsnip: they're setup correctly though, config is copied from a 10.04 machine that this new one is replacing. | 03:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Raymond_: you'd need to extract it, what its in the archive? | 03:59 |
| ActionParsnip | gremlin133: is it just one subinterface, or many? | 03:59 |
| gremlin133 | ActionParsnip: 6 of them | 03:59 |
| ActionParsnip | gremlin133: then I suggest you comment out 5 of them, if you can start networking ok then uncomment another | 03:59 |
| ActionParsnip | gremlin133: and so on | 04:00 |
| gremlin133 | ActionParsnip: hmm, I suppose, it doesn't even work if you try to do it manually, as in ifconfig eth0:0 etc etc | 04:01 |

| gogo_it | ActionParsnip: I tried, but I can not seem to post a message, it asks me to register and I do, but than won't let me post. any idea? | 04:48 |

| ActionParsnip | phong_: it can but the chances are next to zero | 04:50 |
| ActionParsnip | !av | phong_ | 04:50 |
| ubottu | phong_: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 04:50 |
| Juest | Dogears: umm, try uninstalling the old vbox first | 04:50 |
| ActionParsnip | phong_: you only really need AV if you run a file server with windows clients, or an email server | 04:50 |
| phong_ | oh | 04:51 |
| phong_ | is it secure to pay online bills? | 04:51 |
| ActionParsnip | phong_: the browsers use the same security standards as they do in windows, so yes | 04:51 |
| dimas_ | ActionParsnip, i dont think is the ram as i dont have any problem with windows in the other partition | 04:51 |
| ActionParsnip | dimas_: windows may manage bad ram differently to linux, its worth testing | 04:52 |
| ActionParsnip | dimas_: and you did say it started after the install of new ram... | 04:52 |
| Dogears | Thanks - will try. Can I keep settings somehow? | 04:52 |
| ActionParsnip | dimas_: run it for about 10 mins, if you see RED the ram is bad | 04:52 |
| dlentz | older windows versions managed bad ram by not using ram and swapping everything to disk :P | 04:52 |
| dimas_ | ActionParsnip, but i dont see the memtest option in the grub menu | 04:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Dogears: uninstalling the app doesn't remove settings | 04:53 |
| ActionParsnip | dimas_: hold shift at boot, it will be near the bottom | 04:53 |
| Dogears | Great !! Thanks | 04:53 |
| ActionParsnip | dimas_: memtest is in a default install | 04:53 |
| dlentz | dimas_, your bios could have it too if you still can't find it | 04:53 |
| dimas_ | ActionParsnip, you mean when i boot a CD iso it will perform the memtest?...if that is the case i dont have any problem with the ram then | 04:54 |
| ActionParsnip | dimas_: the installed OS also has it. The memtest is also on the CD too | 04:55 |
| dimas_ | ActionParsnip, but you says is runs as default at start | 04:56 |
| ActionParsnip | dimas_: no I said it's in a default install. | 04:56 |

| plustax | how do i update from gnome 3 to gnome 3.2? | 05:02 |
| ActionParsnip | plustax: which release are you using? | 05:02 |
| Juest | where do i need to head to modify global XOrg xhost settings????? | 05:02 |
| Dogears | ActionParsnip: what if the package name changes from virtualbox-4.0 to virtualbox-4.1 does it find the settings? | 05:02 |
| plustax | ActionParsnip, im on gnome 3 on 11.10 | 05:02 |
| ActionParsnip | LiENUS: try asking your real question | 05:02 |
| dlentz | plustax, might as well upgrade to precise and roll with it | 05:02 |
| LiENUS | ActionParsnip, i just wanna know how well it runs | 05:02 |
| plustax | dlentz, what does that mean? | 05:02 |
| LiENUS | what doesnt work | 05:02 |
| dlentz | precise = ubuntu 12.04 | 05:03 |
| Juest | plustax: ubuntu haves a sucky gnome 3, use another thing, like fedora | 05:03 |
| plustax | Oh. How is that? What are the advantages of upgrading? | 05:03 |
| ActionParsnip | plustax: Oneiric uses Gnome 3.2 | 05:03 |
| bazhang | Juest, dont suggest fedora here please | 05:03 |
| dlentz | you get gnome 3.2 without hacking in ppa(s) | 05:03 |
| MrCleanWithHair | anyone know of a version of big two in the software center? | 05:03 |
| ActionParsnip | LiENUS: try a liveUSB and see | 05:03 |
| plustax | problem is, im not an advanced user. I understand ubuntu to some degree. | 05:04 |
| Juest | why, ubuntu UI is not the one seen at gnome.org | 05:04 |
| ActionParsnip | dlentz: oneiric uses gnome 3.2 | 05:04 |
| LiENUS | alas thats not free, isps here charge per gb | 05:04 |
| LiENUS | which is why i axed first | 05:04 |
| dlentz | really? | 05:04 |
| plustax | is there any way I can simply upgrade my gnome 3 shell to 3.2 without going with a new distribution? | 05:04 |
| ActionParsnip | LiENUS: axed? | 05:04 |
| [deXter] | plustax, then in that case I would recommend sticking with what you have right now. Pangolin will be out soon so you might as well wait for it. | 05:04 |
| LiENUS | yeah i axed a question | 05:05 |
| bazhang | Juest, this is Ubuntu support, please stay on topic | 05:05 |
| ActionParsnip | LiENUS: ohh ASKED | 05:05 |
| [deXter] | plustax, yuo can add the gnome3 ppa but it'll trigger an update for a lot of apps | 05:05 |
| Juest | and what system haves gnome3.2 in pure state?? | 05:05 |
| LiENUS | ActionParsnip, how archaic | 05:05 |
| [deXter] | plustax, and can break some apps as well.. as practically every app has gnome dependencies | 05:05 |
| plustax | Ah, okay. | 05:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Juest: ubuntu has gnome3.2 | 05:05 |
| bazhang | Juest, what do you mean "pure state" | 05:05 |
| ActionParsnip | LiENUS: no, it's correct english | 05:05 |
| MrCleanWithHair | Juest, arch does | 05:05 |
| Juest | but the ui is soo messed :P | 05:05 |
| Juest | hmm | 05:05 |
| plustax | [deXter], is pangolin the next ubuntu release? | 05:05 |
| Sebastien | pangolin it should be off now, sorry about that, i run lots of scripts. | 05:06 |
| _mike_ | Hello Ubuntu team, Can someone please point me to a website that shows me a simple way of putting Minecraft (and java probably) onto Ubuntu 11.10? | 05:06 |
| A|i3N | OK Question for the first person who might have a clue how to fix this. LOL. Finally got ubunty 10.04 playing nice with my four monitor ATI FirePro 2450 setup at work. amdccc however is pissing me off. I've set it how I want it *several* times and it keeps changing *one* of my monitors back to a lower resolution, automatically without asking me. Is there a way to disable is auto correcting what it thinks is right? | 05:06 |
| Sebastien | its allmost impossible to keep track of them all | 05:06 |
| [deXter] | plustax, Presice Pangolin, yes.. | 05:06 |
| Juest | pure, imean, all the settings as seen in gnome.org | 05:06 |
| ActionParsnip | LiENUS: if you use it it makes things quicker as people who speak correctly don't need clarification of some made up slang/word/whatever you are choosing to use | 05:06 |
| plustax | [deXter], how do I upgrade to that right now without wiping my computer out? Im dual-booted currently with win 7 | 05:06 |
| LiENUS | plus theres little things i might not notice right away my understanding is when you run led the subpixeling is different, so you end up straining your eyes more | 05:06 |
| A|i3N | Other then that it's working beautifully with a single desktop being displayed across all monitors. | 05:06 |
| Juest | MrCleanWithHair: does arch linux have all the stuff as seen in gnome.org? | 05:07 |
| MrCleanWithHair | Juest, it'll have a pure gnome 3 install | 05:07 |
| _mike_ | Hello Ubuntu team, Can someone please point me to a website that shows me a simple way of putting Minecraft (and java probably) onto Ubuntu 11.10? | 05:07 |
| Juest | MrCleanWithHair: does it look like gnome.org? | 05:07 |
| urlin2u | plustax, upgrade from what to what? | 05:07 |
| Juest | specially login screen | 05:08 |
| [deXter] | plustax, you could add the repos and do a dist-upgrade; but personally I don't advise dist-upgrades. you could however download the latest live cd and try it out, if you find it stable enough you can install it over your current setup | 05:08 |
| MrCleanWithHair | Juest, no arch install looks the same. so no. it doesn't. | 05:08 |
| LiENUS | so no one running ubuntu on a samsung series 7/ | 05:08 |
| plustax | [deXter], Alright I will do that. | 05:08 |
| Juest | MrCleanWithHair: so? | 05:09 |
| ActionParsnip | LiENUS: could post on the forums too, see if anyone replies there | 05:09 |
| MrCleanWithHair | Juest, its pure gnome. | 05:09 |
| ActionParsnip | LiENUS: you could also get a buddy who has a bootable USB to lend you it to test | 05:09 |
| [deXter] | plustax, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ | 05:09 |
| LiENUS | i can get a usb drive | 05:09 |
| Juest | MrCleanWithHair: does it haves the black ui on login? | 05:09 |
| LiENUS | its a matter of downloading it isnt free here | 05:09 |
| bazhang | juest why are you asking about arch here? | 05:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Juest: keeping a default theme isn't pure gnome.. | 05:09 |
| MrCleanWithHair | Juest, no it has a tty on login. fedora will look just like gnome.org though | 05:10 |
| urlin2u | _mike_, I would not try and understand grub before you reinstall XP, grub is rather complex, but it has excellent instructions and many great helpers here to guide you. | 05:10 |

| plustax | last question. Got the iso DL'ed Im gonna make a USB stick with it. What program do I use in ubuntu to make the liveUSB? | 05:11 |
| ActionParsnip | LiENUS: yes but using multiple places is good too :) | 05:11 |
| bazhang | plustax, unetbootin | 05:11 |
| ActionParsnip | plustax: unetbootin | 05:11 |
| dlentz | plustax, unetbootin works well for me | 05:11 |
| urlin2u | _mike_, it is a option you can use easybcd to boot ubuntu, but all the hype about grub being a breaker is fud, it works fine you just have to know the basics about it. | 05:11 |
| ActionParsnip | plustax: remember to MD5 test the ISO too | 05:11 |

| ActionParsnip | MrCleanWithHair: Ubuntu now uses lightdm | 05:12 |
| urlin2u | _mike_, on the other channel if it is outside of that OS it will get maligned without eveidence. | 05:12 |
| bazhang | plustax, unetbootin will do it for you | 05:12 |
| MrCleanWithHair | ActionParsnip, he was asking how to change it in general i think. | 05:12 |
| ActionParsnip | plustax: the install procedure has a step to configure partitions | 05:12 |
| o67pc | Hey | 05:12 |
| plustax | Oh, okay. Nice. | 05:12 |
| o67pc | Someone here | 05:12 |
| o67pc | burned an processor? | 05:13 |
| plustax | so I just install it over my current then? How do I know which one that is? | 05:13 |
| dlentz | o67pc, i've burned a cpu | 05:13 |
| bazhang | o67pc, how does this relate to ubuntu support | 05:13 |
| ActionParsnip | o67pc: how s a burned processor ubuntu related, ask in ##hardware | 05:13 |
| Konata | Someone has asked me why unity sucks | 05:13 |
| o67pc | THis related when, the ubuntu not recognize the processor | 05:14 |
| o67pc | but my machine | 05:14 |
| o67pc | have 2 processor | 05:14 |
| Konata | Can anyone give me some reasons I can tell them, lol | 05:14 |
| ActionParsnip | o67pc: its not ubuntu related, its hardware related | 05:14 |
| MrCleanWithHair | o67pc, what kernel are you using? | 05:14 |
| urlin2u | Konata, try #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Konata: if you have to ask then you don't know. so all you can say is "I don't know" | 05:14 |
| o67pc | No, its an Ubuntu related, the kernel is changed to use with ubuntu | 05:14 |
| === mitch is now known as Guest11061 | ||
| Konata | Well, that answers my question. | 05:15 |
| joeko | I am trying to setup an unattended install but I am having problems with the language support. When the system restarts it says it is missing langauge support. In the syslog file from the unattended install is specifies the the language-support-en package could not be found. Are lack of language support and failure to install the language-support-en package connected? how could i fix this? | 05:15 |
| ActionParsnip | o67pc: so you want to know if ubuntu wil stil continue to use the 1 good cpu? | 05:15 |
| MrCleanWithHair | o67pc, do you know your burned out a processor and what kernel are you using? | 05:16 |
| urlin2u | joeko, best unattended is a clone slipped in. | 05:16 |

| Guest11061 | hello | 05:17 |
| Guest11061 | is there anyone out there who can help me | 05:20 |
| darkcrimson | I can try | 05:20 |
| darkcrimson | What' | 05:20 |
| darkcrimson | What seems to be the problem? | 05:20 |
| oops | Hey, Can Someone Help me? I'm running 11.10 and for some reason LibreOffice opens itself at random intervals | 05:24 |
| cheapie | oops: I just had to laugh at that. I have never heard of that... Are you sure nobody is connected to your computer? | 05:25 |
| darkcrimson | Yeah. That's weird. | 05:26 |
| oops | yes, nobody is connected | 05:26 |
| darkcrimson | Only thing I could think of is random shortcut, or trying to open a document you wouldn't normally associate with LibreOffice. | 05:26 |
| pooky | Might have a bad file association. Like when you open a folder or something it opens OO | 05:26 |
| intok | Anyone play Osmos on a Geforce 6200(NV44a) I cna't see any of the menu text or objectives text in the game | 05:26 |
| oops | Usually happens when I'm closing/opening TeamSpeak3 or Mozilla | 05:26 |
| Guest11061 | hi darkcrimson I know this may sound crazy but is there any reason why someone who would be cheating on there spouse would join ubuntu? | 05:27 |
| darkcrimson | That's so random. | 05:27 |
| oops | Its been ever since I updated to the latest version of LibreOffice | 05:27 |
| pooky | what does it open in OO? | 05:27 |
| cheapie | oops: Does it do this when you click something, or does it do it even if you are not touching the computer? | 05:27 |
| oops | when I'm not even touching my computer | 05:27 |
| darkcrimson | I think your machine is haunted. | 05:27 |
| pooky | ^^ | 05:27 |
| oops | I'll close teamspeak ad roughly a few seconds later it opens | 05:28 |
| cheapie | oops: Have you tried disconnecting from the network? | 05:28 |
| oops | Yes | 05:28 |
| plustax | so what are the advantages/new features of precise over 11.10? | 05:28 |
| Xourii | hello everyone | 05:28 |
| cheapie | oops: Does it only do it after you close teamspeak? | 05:28 |
| oops | thats when I've noticed it the most but it has done it with other applications | 05:28 |
| cheapie | oops: That is strange... | 05:29 |
| oops | you think it could be some random event triggering it? | 05:29 |
| darkcrimson | How about everytime you get a new email? | 05:29 |
| cheapie | oops: Do you think anybody has had access to your computer? | 05:29 |
| oops | Nope | 05:29 |
| oops | darkcrimson: I don't have empathy or thunderbird setup. | 05:30 |
| darkcrimson | oops: Hmm... | 05:30 |
| darkcrimson | oops: That is really odd. I'm going to stick with haunted. | 05:30 |
| * cheapie "Hmm..."s along with darkcrimson | 05:30 | |
| darkcrimson | oops: Time to call the short lady who says "This house is clean" | 05:31 |
| oops | lol | 05:31 |
| darkcrimson | oops: I'm going to research this some. | 05:31 |
| oops | you think Unity could be doing it? | 05:31 |
| cheapie | oops: I don't think so. | 05:31 |
| plustax | so what are the advantages/new features of precise 12.04 over 11.10 and does anyone here think its worth the upgrade at this time? | 05:32 |
| Xourii | Is there some kind of task manager for Ubuntu? | 05:32 |
| darkcrimson | "top" | 05:32 |
| cheapie | Xourii: gnome-system-monitor | 05:32 |
| darkcrimson | or that. | 05:32 |
| oops | I did a little research and this has happened with some users of KDE but it didn't go much farther than that. | 05:32 |
| Jordan_U | !precise | plustax | 05:32 |

| darkcrimson | oops: See if the process is running and kill it. | 05:32 |
| cheapie | oops: I googled "LibreOffice opening itself" and it came up with nothing relevant. | 05:32 |
| Guest11061 | call me ignorant but I don't even know what this site is, I caught my husband of 8 years cheating on me while I was pregnant and this is just one site that came up. sorry if I offended anyone | 05:33 |
| darkcrimson | I did the same thing. | 05:33 |
| oops | I googled LibreOffice Randomly opening itself | 05:33 |
| darkcrimson | Guest11061, if your husband cheated on your with Ubuntu, I understand completely. | 05:33 |
| Guest11061 | why? | 05:33 |
| darkcrimson | Because Ubuntu is sexy. | 05:33 |

| cheapie | gathehs: I'm using Debian, and I feel the same... | 05:34 |
| oops | I checked, there are no Processes from LibreOffice running. | 05:34 |

| ActionParsnip | Guest11061: this is a support channel for the OS Ubuntu | 05:35 |
| darkcrimson | I have to say that's a first for me. | 05:35 |
| darkcrimson | I've seen some crazy stuff, but nothing like that. | 05:35 |
| darkcrimson | Sorry, oops, this tops your haunted computer. | 05:36 |
| Guest11061 | I've never even heard of this | 05:36 |
| darkcrimson | Well, welcome to the other side. | 05:37 |
| darkcrimson | The grass is greener here. | 05:37 |
| Guest11061 | Still confused a bit??? | 05:37 |
| gathehs | guest11061 what are you talking about? | 05:37 |

| darkcrimson | ubottu: Thanks. | 05:37 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 05:37 |
| darkcrimson | embarassing. | 05:38 |

| intok | Guest11061 #freenode #nsfw #socialites #defocus | 05:39 |
| darkcrimson | oops: My only suggestion would be to remove it and try reinstalling. | 05:39 |
| Guest11061 | Where is everyone from? U.S. or other countries or both? | 05:39 |
| darkcrimson | Guest11061: All over the world. | 05:40 |

| Flannel | Guest11061: This is a support channel, not a chat channel. Please take it elsewhere, thanks. | 05:40 |
| Guest11061 | What do you talk about? | 05:40 |
| darkcrimson | oops: We found your problem. | 05:40 |
| darkcrimson | oops: bad install. | 05:40 |
| Flannel | Guest11061: Technical support. | 05:40 |
| bazhang | Guest11061, ubuntu support | 05:40 |
| darkcrimson | oops: It could be possible you got some corrupt files in there. | 05:40 |
| oops | darkcrimson: are you sure? You think it has anything to do with KDE or Gnome Integration packages? | 05:41 |
| urlin2u | oops, think for a minute millions of people using those desktops. | 05:42 |
| darkcrimson | oops: Well, that's the thing. The time of the event being random, followed by the problem occuring after a reinstall...I'm left to think corrupt files. However, that is possible. | 05:42 |
| oops | Well, Imma reinstall but I'm also going to ditch the LibreOffice integration packages (which are optional) and see if that makes a difference too. | 05:43 |
| darkcrimson | oops: You would think if it were integration packages, the problem would be more widespread. I can't find a single incident elsewhere. | 05:44 |
| plustax | Does anyone here think its a good idea to go from 11.10 to 12.04 or should I just stay where Im at right now? | 05:44 |
| cheapie | Sorry - my internet connection went down. What did I miss after I said "!ubuntu"? | 05:44 |
| darkcrimson | oops: Let us know how it worked. | 05:44 |
| darkcrimson | plustax: That's entirely up to you | 05:44 |
| cheapie | oops: First, see if you have ~/.local/share/applications and ~/.local/share/mime - if you do, can you post them on pastebin for us to look at? | 05:44 |
| urlin2u | plustax, no and the channel for that is #ubuntu+1 | 05:44 |

| ca_bud | can someone tell me how to run httpd -S on a ubuntu server with apache? | 05:46 |
| matthias_ | nope | 05:46 |
| Flannel | ca_bud: What's the problem you're actually trying to solve? | 05:47 |
| ActionParsnip | calmpitbull: try cinelerra maybe | 05:47 |

| A|i3N | OK I'ma ask this again lol... ATI Catalyst control center keeps changing to resolution of one of found monitors upon reboot. What can I do to keep the damn thing from changing my settings? Can I make a particular file read only or something? I tried it with the xorg.conf file but it didn't help; it still changed the resolution. | 05:50 |
| oops | cheapie: my libreoffice stack http://pastebin.com/QnPXe66X and my mime list http://pastebin.com/WTQJ7Zg7 | 05:51 |

| roy1977 | sorry | 05:54 |
| roy1977 | what's the command for the create one channel on irc? | 05:55 |
| oops | cheapie: yeah, I'm starting to think it has something to do with that error I also pasted to you. | 05:56 |
| bazhang | roy1977, /join ##channel | 05:56 |
| roy1977 | ??? | 05:56 |
| roy1977 | i want create my channel | 05:56 |

| bazhang | roy1977, just join it, and it is created | 05:56 |
| roy1977 | ok tnx broth | 05:56 |
| oops | cheapie: let my check my cron tabs | 05:57 |
| btral | i use radiusd -p 1812 and give this error: Ignoring deprecated command-line option -p | 05:57 |
| bazhang | roy1977, perhaps we could discuss this in #freenode | 05:57 |
| btral | ? | 05:57 |
| cheapie | btral: ? | 05:57 |
| cheapie | btral: Well, if it's just depreciated, it should still work. | 05:58 |
| btral | cheapie: how see used port number it radius? | 05:59 |
| oops | cheapie: okay, nothing in my cron tabs so I'm just going to do a fresh install and delete my current config. for it and hope for the best | 05:59 |
| cheapie | btral: parse error: dunno what the heck you're talking about | 05:59 |
| yanick_ | hi, after a few messing up with wine1.3 and damn .Net 2.0 installer, I tried removing wine components by this sweet command "sudo apt-get purge wine*" and some awful things just happened... is the only solution a fresh reinstall? | 05:59 |
| cheapie | yanick: What awful things? | 06:00 |
| btral | cheapie: i want to check port? | 06:00 |
| yanick_ | cheapie, well, for once it removed apparmor and winebind (or something like that) | 06:00 |
| btral | cheapie: cat /etc/raddb/radiusd.conf | grep port | 06:00 |
| cheapie | btral: You could install nmap, scan localhost, and see what ports are open. | 06:00 |
| btral | cheapie: i give # port=0; | 06:00 |
| btral | i have nmap | 06:01 |
| cheapie | yanick_: What is preventing you from reinstalling them? | 06:01 |
| btral | nmap dont show any port for radius | 06:01 |
| yanick_ | cheapie, because the system is broken and has some unresolved packages now | 06:01 |
| yanick_ | is there some "undo last apt-get command" command? | 06:02 |
| cheapie | yanick_: Can you try sudo apt-get -f install and tell us what happens? | 06:02 |
| yanick_ | I may try :P | 06:02 |
| cheapie | yanick_: I don't think such a command exists. | 06:02 |
| yanick_ | cheapie, it says that there are nothing to do | 06:02 |
| cheapie | yanick: That means that nothing installed currently has unresolved dependencies. | 06:03 |
| yanick_ | cheapie, i'm not exactly sure what packages got removed since the console has output too many lines and the buffer erased the important lines containing the packages that were purged | 06:03 |
| cheapie | yanick_: Please wait while I check something... | 06:04 |
| yanick_ | there was in history of what was installed and removed, I think, at some point.... does this still exist? | 06:04 |
| cheapie | yanick_: Did you use aptitude? | 06:04 |
| yanick_ | apt-get | 06:04 |
| insmod | <yanick_> you can do a fix! | 06:05 |
| * cheapie reads apt-get man page | 06:05 | |
| yanick_ | insmod, a fix? | 06:05 |
| insmod | <yanick_> yup | 06:05 |
| yanick_ | please, ellaborate :) | 06:05 |
| cheapie | yanick_: I think he means apt-get -f install | 06:05 |
| insmod | <yanick_> -f | 06:06 |
| yanick_ | insmod, I did that, it says nothing's wrong | 06:06 |
| insmod | -f Attempt to correct a system with broken dependencies in place | 06:06 |
| cheapie | yanick_: It would help if you could be a little more specific about what happened after you removed the packages. | 06:06 |
| insmod | <yanick_> then just reinstall the package and it will add all del files | 06:07 |
| yanick_ | cheapie, nothing happened, but I'm afraid of rebooting right now :D | 06:07 |
| hiexpo | nite all | 06:07 |
| yanick_ | insmod, it purged some packages and I lost them when the console buffer "forgot" them at some point | 06:07 |
| insmod | <yanick_> rebooting isnot like win pakages take effect when installed unlees in memory | 06:08 |
| insmod | <yanick_> well that's easy | 06:08 |
| yanick_ | insmod, If I remember well, it purged packages like gnome-panel | 06:09 |
| yanick_ | which is not good | 06:09 |
| cheapie | yanick_: Just make sure linux-image-generic and ubuntu-desktop are installed. If so, you should be fine. | 06:09 |
| linuxnub | hi i need help | 06:09 |
| === DaveWM_ is now known as DaveWM | ||
| linuxnub | where is the support channel? | 06:09 |
| cheapie | linuxnub: This is the support channel for Ubuntu. | 06:10 |
| linuxnub | great | 06:10 |
| linuxnub | im on backtrack and i want synaptic but i cant get it to work | 06:10 |
| cheapie | linuxnub: What happens when you try to install it? | 06:10 |
| linuxnub | heres my error | 06:10 |
| linuxnub | sudo apt-get install synaptic Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package synaptic is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package synaptic has no installation candidate | 06:10 |

| [reed] | where does the unity launcher save the things that are stored on it? documentation seems to say ~/.local/share/applications/, but that's not true in my case | 06:11 |
| yanick_ | cheapie, insmod, so if nothing "seem" to have broke, then I should be fine on next reboot? | 06:11 |
| cheapie | linuxnub: OK... what's in your sources.list? | 06:11 |
| cheapie | yanick_: You said it removed gnome-panel, so make sure ubuntu-desktop is installed. | 06:12 |
| linuxnub | just deb http://archive.offensive-security.com main microverse macroverse restricted universe multiverse | 06:12 |
| insmod | <yanick_> unless the broken are running in memory | 06:12 |
| cheapie | linuxnub: And you're using Ubuntu? | 06:12 |
| linuxnub | and i did sudo apt-get update | 06:12 |
| linuxnub | i may have changed it.... | 06:12 |
| linuxnub | yeah i am | 06:12 |
| yanick_ | cheapie, alright, thanks | 06:13 |
| paulus68 | does anyone know a good backupscript for a server? | 06:13 |
| cheapie | linuxnub: That would be the problem - you should have the official sources in there. | 06:13 |
| bullgard4 | paulus68: rsnapshot ftw! | 06:14 |
| cheapie | paulus68: A cron job to copy everything over to the backup disk. | 06:14 |
| linuxnub | which are? when i tried before it said you should allow universe or whatever | 06:14 |
| insmod | cron sucks | 06:14 |
| bazhang | linuxnub, is that backtrack? | 06:14 |
| linuxnub | yes | 06:14 |
| cheapie | bazhang: What? | 06:15 |
| bazhang | linuxnub, you need to ask in the backtrack support channel, #backtrack-linux as backtrack is not supported here | 06:15 |
| yanick_ | one last thing. If I have Ubuntu 11.04, can I upgrade linux-headers-generic etc. to the most recent version (i.e. the same that 11.11 uses) without breaking anything? | 06:15 |
| linuxnub | roger my bad | 06:15 |
| linuxnub | i dont have voice there | 06:16 |
| linuxnub | grr | 06:16 |
| cheapie | yanick_: It SHOULD work. (However, if it breaks, you get to keep all the pieces) | 06:16 |
| insmod | <yanick_> they say yes - I say no | 06:16 |
| matthias1 | asd | 06:16 |
| matthias1 | sry | 06:16 |
| yanick_ | cheapie, insmod, I thought so | 06:17 |
| bullgard4 | Are RDX, RSI, RBP, R08, FS GS, knIGS names of registers in Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T7500? | 06:17 |

| linuxnub | what evs, guess im off to google search | 06:26 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxnub: it is, thats where it is supported | 06:26 |
| [R] | if you can't figure out how to use it... maybe you should use sopmething a little more sane... | 06:26 |
| linuxnub | do i just have to register my nick to get voice? | 06:28 |
| Ben64 | linuxnub: i don't think you need voice, the channel is not +m | 06:28 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxnub: its good to register though, so it is only you whom can use your nick.. | 06:29 |
| mintman | linuxnub: asleep what is the deal. | 06:29 |
| mintman | ActionParsnip: what channel is he looking for support to?? | 06:30 |

| Ben64 | linuxnub: so you ignored the part of the topic that says "*REGISTER TO SPEAK*" | 06:31 |
| urlin2u | linuxnub, you need to be registered I suspect I can post there. | 06:31 |

| TiMiDo | twinkpad, are you using gnome? | 07:18 |
| twinkpad | no ubuntu unity, i havent changed any settings or packages, except I've turned of touchpad clicking | 07:19 |

| ix_ | it stops me at the archive | 07:23 |
| ix_ | repositories | 07:24 |
| zlynx | ix_:what's the error? | 07:24 |
| ix_ | that the mirror is incorrect | 07:24 |
| ix_ | or is offline | 07:24 |
| ix_ | or something | 07:24 |
| ix_ | alternate cd, obviously | 07:25 |
| === Hetep is now known as DarthCaeduces | ||
| zlynx | ix_: you need to specify that the source is the cd not http: or nfs. | 07:26 |

| twinkpad | solved! auto-click was on in universal access. | 07:27 |

| thirdknife | hi | 07:29 |
| thirdknife | i want to install svn on my webhost, its a ubuntu machine. which folder do i have to put my svn server repos so that it can be accessable via url? | 07:30 |
| thirdknife | any guide? | 07:30 |
| thirdknife | i know it could be irrelevant here | 07:30 |
| thirdknife | but :) | 07:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Its ubuntu related so is fine :-D | 07:31 |
| ix_ | the odd part is that debian netinstall can be installed without an internet connection, but ubuntu command line from alternate cannot | 07:31 |
| elbrinke | Is there any proper ubuntu drivers for the AMD E-350 embedded graphics | 07:31 |
| elbrinke | because the ubuntu graphics drivers for the AMD E-250 does not work | 07:32 |
| zlynx | ix_: i've never experience that kind of problem on ubuntu before. What i usually do is boot it on live and then click on the install ubuntu and then when it ask to download updates just uncheck them .. | 07:32 |
| ix_ | I can do that but I want something minimal | 07:33 |
| ActionParsnip | ix_: if you setup a local repo on the server as well and change the installer to use that source only it won't use the web and the server will act like a WSUS server | 07:33 |
| ix_ | ActionParsnip, I just want to setup the internet after I install ubuntu command line | 07:33 |
| applesouce | So ActionParsnip, how do I fix my problem :/ | 07:34 |
| coolstar-ipod | zlynx, ActionParsnip: What's going on here with ix_ as I just joined | 07:34 |
| ActionParsnip | ix_: gotcha, not sure tbh.its my next thing to play with | 07:34 |
| ix_ | coolstar-ipod, I can't install ubuntu command line from alternate cd without an internet connection | 07:34 |
| coolstar-ipod | applesource: What problem? (I just joined IRC) | 07:35 |
| zlynx | coolstar-ipod: needs to install ubuntu on the command line / minimal he said.. | 07:35 |
| applesouce | There is no eth0 in my ifconfig so my LAN doesn't work | 07:35 |
| ActionParsnip | applesouce: whats the issue? I've been up ages so my memory isn't great | 07:35 |
| firerat | applesouce: you have RTL8111E correct? | 07:35 |
| ix_ | applesouce, did you try sudo ifconfig eth0 up? | 07:36 |
| applesouce | product: RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller | 07:36 |
| ActionParsnip | applesouce: did the link not help... | 07:36 |
| coolstar-ipod | applesource: Can you run lspci? | 07:36 |
| firerat | applesouce: have you recently tried to update the driver from realtek web site? | 07:36 |
| applesouce | there was no Link xD | 07:36 |
| applesouce | no :( | 07:36 |
| firerat | lspci -v should still show gigabyte ethernet controller | 07:36 |

| ActionParsnip | applesouce: djlab.com/2010/10/fixing-rtl8111-8168b-driver-debian-ubuntu/ | 07:37 |

| ActionParsnip | applesouce: i suggest you run: sudo -i before following the steps | 07:38 |
| coolstar-ipod | ActionParsnip: dkms is in the repos imo | 07:39 |
| ActionParsnip | coolstar-ipod: yes it is | 07:39 |
| elbrinke | Is there any proper ubuntu drivers for the AMD E-350 embedded graphics | 07:39 |

| geeeoo | Is there any way to check if my ubuntu server can host a video site? | 07:43 |
| elbrinke | what do you mean? | 07:44 |

| redjuggler2012 | ah thanks | 07:46 |
| coolstar-ipod | geeeoo: CPU? bandwidth??? | 07:47 |

| redjuggler2012 | well that's wonderfully roundabout. alright, time to figure out how to make a user | 08:03 |
| redjuggler2012 | thanks for the direction | 08:04 |
| ParkerR | redjuggler2012, adduser | 08:04 |
| theadmin | redjuggler2012: adduser USERNAME | 08:04 |
| pingec | Does anyone have any ideas on how I could acchieve a panning desktop with a virtual resolution of 10000x10000? This challenge is proving quite hard to do :/ | 08:04 |
| redjuggler2012 | I shall | 08:04 |
| ParkerR | theadmin, Get out of my head XD | 08:04 |
| theadmin | ParkerR: wut? | 08:04 |
| ParkerR | theadmin, Nothing was a joke. I said adduser then you did. | 08:04 |
| ParkerR | Oh hahahahaha | 08:05 |
| ActionParsnip | pingec: I've had panning before under nvidia. You can make an xorg.conf to set it | 08:05 |
| theadmin | ParkerR: Ah, kay. | 08:05 |
| ParkerR | He wasn't banned from the backtrack channel. He ran IRC as root | 08:05 |
| ParkerR | Some channel don't like that XD | 08:06 |
| ParkerR | *channels | 08:06 |
| ActionParsnip | ParkerR: ironic ;-) | 08:06 |
| theadmin | pingec: Are you sure your graphic card can even render something that huge? | 08:06 |
| pingec | Im sure it can't | 08:06 |
| geeeoo | ParkerR: What happens if someone runs mirc as root? first time i am hearing something like that | 08:06 |
| pingec | But I still would liek to do it | 08:06 |
| Ben64 | geeeoo: mirc is windows, windows doesn't have an account named "root" | 08:07 |
| pingec | need it to take a screenshot of a map viewer =) | 08:07 |
| ParkerR | geeeoo, will mIRC is windows soo.... | 08:07 |
| ParkerR | *well | 08:07 |
| ActionParsnip | geeeoo: running wine apps as root isn't smart or needed | 08:07 |
| theadmin | mIRC always sets the username to "mirc" if I recall right | 08:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Ben64: mirc runs well under wine | 08:07 |
| * coolstar-ipod once ran SpringBoard as root | 08:07 | |
| theadmin | But yeah, offtopic here | 08:07 |
| ParkerR | ActionParsnip, Ironic indeed XD | 08:07 |
| Ben64 | ActionParsnip: mirc doesn't run well on windows :P | 08:08 |
| ParkerR | Ben64, Exactly :D | 08:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Ben64: | 08:08 |
| geeeoo | guys a last question and i am leaving. i have a website such as adfy (url shortener). is it legal to have such a website? You know these days we have to be careful.... | 08:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Ben64: no idea. I always use pidgin. | 08:08 |
| ParkerR | geeeoo, adfly is not illegal | 08:08 |
| theadmin | geeeoo: Totally legal, even Google has one xD | 08:09 |
| coolstar-ipod | geeeoo: maybe not in the future (SOPA) | 08:09 |
| bazhang | geeeoo, legality is not an ubuntu issue, especially this | 08:09 |
| theadmin | geeeoo: Nothing to worry about there | 08:09 |
| ParkerR | Annoying: yes, illegal: no | 08:09 |
| Ben64 | geeeoo: who knows anymore, the government seems hell bent on censoring the internet | 08:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Ben64: not used win desktop outside work for ages now | 08:09 |
| Ben64 | ActionParsnip: same here | 08:09 |
| bazhang | lets get back on topic please | 08:09 |
| theadmin | Indeed. | 08:09 |
| geeeoo | ok guys thanks | 08:09 |
| theadmin | That's what I've been saying for the last five minutes -_- | 08:09 |
| bazhang | theadmin, thanks | 08:09 |
| ParkerR | So how bout them Ubuntus XD | 08:10 |
| * ParkerR shuts up | 08:10 | |
| ActionParsnip | Ha | 08:10 |
| DJango_Novice | hi | 08:11 |
| ParkerR | DJango_Novice, Hello | 08:11 |
| DJango_Novice | im new to ubuntu and trying to use samba | 08:12 |
| DJango_Novice | when i try to open samba config with gksudo samba in run window.. it gives me nothing | 08:12 |
| DJango_Novice | any idea?? | 08:12 |
| theadmin | DJango_Novice: Duh, "samba" is not a command. | 08:12 |
| DJango_Novice | in tutorial it says.... gksu samba in run terminal | 08:13 |
| DJango_Novice | so what shall i do to get the gui of samba config | 08:13 |
| theadmin | !samba | DJango_Novice | 08:13 |
| ubottu | DJango_Novice: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 08:13 |
| ParkerR | DJango_Novice, Link please | 08:13 |
| DJango_Novice | k thanks | 08:13 |
| ParkerR | To tutorial | 08:13 |
| theadmin | I don't think Samba has any official GUI config tools. | 08:14 |
| bsmith093 | is there a way to bulk porint to a pdf printer in lucid | 08:14 |
| ActionParsnip | DJango_Novice: you can configure samba from nautilus | 08:14 |
| DJango_Novice | im using oneric | 08:14 |
| DJango_Novice | 11.10 | 08:14 |
| theadmin | DJango_Novice: These guides apply to most recent Ubuntu versions. | 08:14 |
| DJango_Novice | ive installed samba but the prb is not with samba | 08:14 |
| bazhang | bsmith093, bulk 'print to pdf' ? | 08:14 |
| DJango_Novice | its ubuntu thts not opening samba config gui | 08:15 |
| theadmin | DJango_Novice: *sigh* there is NO such thing as "samba config gui". Not an official one, at least, and that means the guide you are reading is not for Ubuntu. | 08:15 |
| bsmith093 | bazhang: yes print a bunch of images to one single pdf fiile | 08:15 |
| theadmin | Probably PCLinuxOS or SuSE or whatnot, they got config tools for everything >.< | 08:15 |
| ActionParsnip | bsmith093: I've seen libreoffice being used at cli to print pdfs. There may be a <your file type> to pdf converter | 08:15 |
| DJango_Novice | with gui i mean samba-config | 08:15 |
| DJango_Novice | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9aLvoH4-BQ.. im following this tutorial in youtube | 08:16 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: Too complicated. CUPS does pdf. | 08:16 |
| ActionParsnip | DJango_Novice: in nautilus, right click a folder to share and read the me | 08:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Menu | 08:16 |
| bsmith093 | specifically i have some cbz files and i would love to batch convert to pdf but the only thing thats working at all is calibre and its slow as hell and it makes grainy pdfs | 08:17 |
| shaDykhan | can anyone recommend me some good desktop enviroments? | 08:17 |
| ParkerR | shaDykhan, Light ones? | 08:17 |
| theadmin | shaDykhan: XFCE, LXDE, Openbox, Enlightenment are all pretty lightweight and functional. | 08:17 |
| bazhang | shaDykhan, kde4 gnome xfce4 lxde/openbox | 08:17 |
| CharminTheMoose | shaDykhan, KDE, Gnome, LXDE, XFCE. | 08:17 |
| bazhang | shaDykhan, try them and decide for yourself | 08:18 |
| theadmin | Why does nobody mention enligtenment? lol, seems everyone forgot about it | 08:18 |
| CharminTheMoose | Enlightenment is a window manager, no? | 08:18 |
| Mcl0vin | hello there | 08:18 |
| theadmin | CharminTheMoose: Half-window manager, it has things desktop environments tend to have (panels, trays, etc etc) | 08:18 |
| shaDykhan | whats good for "eye candy" | 08:18 |
| bazhang | Mcl0vin, hi | 08:18 |
| CyberBrat | can anyone recommend a decent bootloader editor/maker thingy? | 08:18 |
| theadmin | shaDykhan: KDE | 08:18 |
| ActionParsnip | bsmith093: www.oooninja.com/2008/02/batch-command-line-file-conversion-with.html | 08:18 |
| bazhang | CyberBrat, to edit grub2? | 08:19 |
| CharminTheMoose | Good point theadmin | 08:19 |
| shaDykhan | k cool i will try it for sure | 08:19 |
| shaDykhan | thanks | 08:19 |
| ParkerR | Cyanure, grub-customizer | 08:19 |
| Mcl0vin | can someone please explain to me how i can use nx to login my ubuntu box and yet i can't ssh to it ? | 08:19 |
| CyberBrat | bazhang, yup | 08:19 |
| theadmin | bsmith093: apt-get install cups-pdf for system-wide PDF print functionality. | 08:19 |
| ParkerR | * CyberBrat, grub-customizer | 08:19 |
| ActionParsnip | CyberBrat: what to achieve? | 08:19 |
| bazhang | CyberBrat, what do you need to edit exactly? | 08:19 |
| CyberBrat | ActionParsnip, to make bootloader backgrounds and boot orders | 08:20 |
| bazhang | ParkerR, where is that from | 08:20 |
| oops | Mclovin: Make sure you're using the right SSH -Port | 08:20 |
| ActionParsnip | theadmin: bsmith093 wants to convent multiple docs, so opening each to print is laborious | 08:20 |
| ParkerR | I think you have to add a ppa | 08:20 |
| theadmin | bazhang: Sounds like something from Mandriva | 08:20 |
| bazhang | ParkerR, got a link? | 08:20 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: Use for loops with command-line print tools? | 08:20 |
| ActionParsnip | CyberBrat: do you want windows as default? | 08:20 |
| ParkerR | bazhang, One sec | 08:20 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: 22 that is | 08:21 |
| CyberBrat | ActionParsnip, noway jose?? | 08:21 |
| CyberBrat | !! | 08:21 |
| ActionParsnip | CyberBrat: yes or no please.. | 08:21 |
| CyberBrat | no sir | 08:21 |
| ParkerR | bazhang, https://launchpad.net/~danielrichter2007/+archive/grub-customizer | 08:21 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: plz use me name in your message so that i can see it , i can't keep up with these people here they type so fast | 08:21 |
| bazhang | ActionParsnip, he means no | 08:21 |
| ParkerR | Instructions within | 08:21 |
| bazhang | ParkerR, thanks | 08:21 |
| ParkerR | It works with grub and burg | 08:22 |
| oops | Mclovin: if you're running ubuntu on your current computer you can use network tools to see if the port is open | 08:22 |
| fiz- | hello, when logrotate is executed? | 08:22 |
| fiz- | during to cron | 08:22 |
| fiz- | according | 08:22 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: if you're running ubuntu on your current computer you can use network tools to see if the port is open | 08:22 |
| CyberBrat | any recommendations? | 08:23 |
| ActionParsnip | People use burg? Wow | 08:23 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: how please? | 08:23 |
| ParkerR | ActionParsnip, I like burg | 08:23 |
| ParkerR | Kinda nice | 08:23 |
| ParkerR | NOt installed atm though | 08:23 |
| ParkerR | *Not | 08:23 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: are you running ubuntu on your current computer? | 08:23 |
| ActionParsnip | CyberBrat: parker seems to know | 08:23 |
| AFD | is there a way to skip the login screen? I can't seem to delete my password and my install is seriously FUBAR | 08:24 |
| coolstar-ipod | is it possible for me to copy my GUPG keys from my iPod to my kubuntu install? | 08:24 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: yes | 08:24 |
| ParkerR | Know what? XD | 08:24 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: 11.10? | 08:24 |
| coolstar-ipod | *GNUPG | 08:24 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: 10 | 08:24 |
| Ben64 | AFD: you can remove the password from repair mode, and you can get to a console by hitting CTRL+ALT+F1 at the login screen | 08:24 |
| AFD | Ben64: I'm in console now | 08:24 |
| bsmith093 | ActionParsnip: bazhang i basically really need a cbr cbz to pdf converter, or atleast a script that will decompress the archives, run them to a pdf printer which i have but cant figure put how to batch print to, and combine each decompressed archive into one pdf ifle, named preserved | 08:25 |
| bsmith093 | preserving the filenames | 08:25 |
| Ben64 | AFD: ok, then what do you want do to | 08:25 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: go into your applications and see if you can Find "Network Tools" | 08:25 |
| ActionParsnip | AFD: you can set autologin by editting lightdm's config files in root recovery mode at the very least | 08:25 |
| ParkerR | ActionParsnip, What are you volunteering me for? J/k XD | 08:25 |
| AFD | Ben64: I tried passwd -d username and am told I don't have permission - my user has lost sudo privledges :( | 08:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Afd: why are you trying to delete you password. Makes no sense. | 08:26 |
| AFD | ActionParsnip: Thanks! I hadn't thought about getting to use sudo that way | 08:26 |
| dns_ | coolstar-ipod is there an app that it uses or are they just files? | 08:26 |
| Ben64 | AFD: what exactly is your goal | 08:26 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: ok am there | 08:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Afd: you can add the user to the admin group there too | 08:26 |
| AFD | ActionParsnip: I'm being locked out of my install. I just need to get in to back up some files and then reinstall | 08:26 |
| coolstar-ipod | dms_: It's gnupg from Cydia | 08:27 |
| AFD | ActionParsnip: in under recovery as root :D | 08:27 |
| oops | mcl0vin: click on the portscan tab and enter the servers IP address and click scan | 08:27 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: it will take a bit but it will tell you if the port is open | 08:27 |
| theadmin | bsmith093: If you want me to, I'll write such a script, will take a while though | 08:27 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: GNUPG from Cydia | 08:27 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: its open | 08:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Afd: shouldnt need a reinstall. Just boot root recovery and set password and add your user to the admin group if needed | 08:28 |
| theadmin | bsmith093: Actually, seems you can't change names with cups-pdf, nor the location... Annoying. | 08:28 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: okay, try to SSH into it and tell me what you get | 08:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Afd: run: passwd foo; usermod -a -G admin foo | 08:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Afd: change foo for your username | 08:29 |
| bsmith093 | theadmin: that would be great but do you know of any tool to convert cbz and cbr archives to pdf files, cause thats really all i need, i found jomic from sourceforge and it was working great, then it randomly stopped working one day and never worked again i get no output zero size files no errors just skips them | 08:29 |
| dns_ | coolstar-ipod so is there file level access to the ipod? do you know if there is an export function of the app? | 08:29 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: its working now ...hmmmm we didn't change anything thu | 08:29 |
| shaDykhan | ask a web developer what are some must have applications? | 08:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Dns_: there is ifuse | 08:30 |
| shaDykhan | as* | 08:30 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: sometimes its just something little that you didn't put it or do correctly :) | 08:30 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: Glad I could help | 08:30 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: My iPod is Jailbroken so I can ash | 08:30 |
| coolstar-ipod | *ssh | 08:30 |
| AFD | ActionParsnip: so I still get the login prompt which is lacking my user (nothing to click and enter password in to)... what do I need to do to lightdm? | 08:30 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: but i still can't access my apache in that same box and port 80 is open | 08:31 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: make sure that your apache configuration is set up correctly | 08:32 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: there should be something about that in the ubuntu help information | 08:32 |
| dns_ | coolstar-ipod is it a command line application? can you do the normal gpg command line export and import of your key? | 08:32 |
| dns_ | coolstar-ipod gpg -a --export-secret-keys "Your Name" | 08:32 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: I run gpg on my iPod by using an SSH app to SSH to localhost | 08:33 |
| dns_ | coolstar-ipod apart from that is there a secring.gpg file on the ipod? | 08:33 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: by you cannot access it do you mean your cant goto 'your.ip.here' and see the page or you cant run apache commands from ssh? | 08:34 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: does that export only the public key or both the public and private? | 08:35 |
| dns_ | coolstar-ipod private, and don't spread it around as it is not encrypted in that form, use gpg --export-keys to get all the public ones | 08:35 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: I ran ls -a on my iPods home folder, and found a folder called .gnupg | 08:36 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: here is the deal, i had dyndns domain, the cancel it , but before they do , everything was working perfect meaning i was able to access my webserver using the same box and same LAN ip , even my WAN IP didn't change. However i signed got a different dyndns domain , and this is the one i am using now to ssh to the box and nx to the box , but i can't get my my webserver. i also checked... | 08:36 |
| Mcl0vin | ...and made sure port 80 in the router is fwd to my ubuntu box | 08:36 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: there's a secring.gpg file in there | 08:38 |
| dns_ | coolstar-ipod you should be able to just copy the gpg files then, secring.gpg is your private key store, pubring.gpg is the public store | 08:38 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: Then all I could think of is to check your Apache Configuration and make sure your IPtables aren't blocking anything | 08:38 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/httpd.html | 08:39 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: IP tables are fine , because i never used it :) | 08:39 |
| AFD | ActionParsnip: if i remove gdm will I boot straight in to the desktop? or should I delete the user passwd too? | 08:39 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: can I just copy the .gnupg folder into kubuntu's home folder? | 08:39 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: is that ok, or will it mess up the keychain in kubuntu? | 08:40 |
| dns_ | coolstar-ipod if you want to overwrite your current keystore go ahead, alternatly you can import the keys if you already have keys on your desktop | 08:40 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: I haven't manually added any keys. It's almost a clean install | 08:41 |
| dns_ | coolstar-ipod i believe if you have the same pass phrase that you use to login that you use to decrypt the keys it is ok | 08:41 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: the pass phrase is different from my password | 08:41 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: did you look at the help documentation I gave you? | 08:42 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: thats what i used in the first place to setup my ubuntu | 08:42 |
| Mcl0vin | *apache in the first place <-- oops | 08:42 |
| brown_sugar | hey guys, come check this out http://zpag.es/9ZlN | 08:43 |
| dns_ | coolstar-ipod I believe it will prompt you for the keyring pass phrase when you login if they are different so you could change the pass phrase on the keyring if it is annoying you | 08:43 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: Might be wise to open up a thread on the Ubuntu Forums | 08:43 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: I'm Fresh out of ideas | 08:43 |
| IanWizard-Cloud | How can I tell it (Gnome / Ubuntu... really Nautilus), not to auto mount the next drive that I plug in. | 08:43 |
| IanWizard-Cloud | or just disable it, and then re-enable it. | 08:43 |
| IanWizard-Cloud | I've got a drive that I've got to get forensic on... and I don't want it f-ing it up by mounting it. | 08:44 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: I'm going to export the key instead. | 08:44 |
| theadmin | IanWizard-Cloud: Get the drive's UID and add it to fstab with "noauto" | 08:44 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: i can access it from my LAN fine, using dyndns /public IP or LAN IP | 08:44 |
| theadmin | IanWizard-Cloud: For example: UUID=2931-4faf-2941-223-some-more-mess /mnt ext4 defaults,noauto 0 0 | 08:45 |
| IanWizard-Cloud | theadmin: can't get the UID | 08:45 |
| theadmin | IanWizard-Cloud: Oh... Hm. Well, I suppose then, uh... | 08:45 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: but nobody else can access it? | 08:45 |
| glioros | is there any way to xgettext all my php files once and not xgettext each php file ? | 08:45 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: yep, as soon as i leave my house , its gone | 08:46 |
| shaDykhan | what is a good lightweight ide? | 08:46 |
| theadmin | IanWizard-Cloud: gconf-editor, /apps/nautilus/preferences/media_automount - set to 0 | 08:46 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: then its a routing issue. Is it on a static IP? | 08:46 |
| theadmin | shaDykhan: vim | 08:47 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: internally that is | 08:47 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: yes | 08:47 |
| shaDykhan | besides vim lol | 08:47 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: have you set up DMZ? | 08:47 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: I ran the export command but it went to the console | 08:47 |
| theadmin | shaDykhan: Try geany | 08:48 |
| Guest29989 | shaDykhan: for what language? | 08:48 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: to be honest , lately i was setting up GNS3 and i have br0 and Tap0 setup but never checked the site after that , never thought it could be an issue | 08:48 |
| === Guest29989 is now known as Chipzzz | ||
| glioros | is there any way to xgettext all my php files once and not xgettext each php file ? | 08:48 |
| IanWizard-Cloud | shaDykhan: geany is GREAT, SciTE is good also though | 08:48 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: that box LAN IP is 192.168.1.151 | 08:48 |
| shaDykhan | thx ill try those too | 08:48 |
| shaDykhan | 2 lol | 08:48 |
| dns_ | coolstar-ipod run the export and pipe it cmd > ketfile | 08:49 |
| IanWizard-Cloud | theadmin: can I do it by label? for the partition? | 08:49 |
| theadmin | glioros: for i in file1 file2 file3 file4 file5 ; do xgettext $i ; done # Something like this, maybe? | 08:49 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: and Tap0 and eth0 are bridge with Br0 to that LAN IP | 08:49 |
| theadmin | IanWizard-Cloud: I dunno, why not just disable automounting with the way I specified? | 08:49 |
| IanWizard-Cloud | theadmin: I saw that after I hit enter | 08:49 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: make sure all ports are forwarded to that box then | 08:49 |
| mister2 | okay, let's try this again. I just booted an 11.04 live disk and got booted to the login screen. Whats the username/password combination or solution to this? | 08:50 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: 80, 8080, etc. | 08:50 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: they are | 08:50 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: i use dd-wrt for the linksys router am using | 08:50 |
| theadmin | IanWizard-Cloud: Well, as for the label, you can, just use LABEL= instead of UUID= in fstab as specified earlier. | 08:51 |
| glioros | theadmin: I just tried it in the terminal and it didnt work... | 08:51 |
| LemonAid | Hei guys. What desktop recorder would you recommend? | 08:51 |
| theadmin | glioros: I have no idea what the syntax of xgettext is, but something along those lines usually does the trick | 08:51 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: okay, hold on a moment | 08:52 |
| Antstheguy | I need a bit of help setting up Ubuntu One on a headless server | 08:52 |
| Antstheguy | I followed these instructions: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOne/Headless | 08:52 |
| Antstheguy | but am stumped on step 4 | 08:53 |
| Antstheguy | I don't have a "[__main__]" section | 08:53 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: do you have access to the routers web panel? | 08:54 |
| coolstar-ipod | dns_: I exported the private key. Do I need to export the public key as well? | 08:54 |
| AlanBell | mister2: um, that isn't what the liveCD does | 08:54 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: yep | 08:54 |
| afidegnum | hello, pls using apt-get, where do programs get installed by default? | 08:55 |
| afidegnum | I have installed a flight simulation game | 08:55 |
| afidegnum | and I want to add extra propoerties to its folder | 08:55 |
| AlanBell | LemonAid: gtk-recordmydesktop | 08:55 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: goto NAT/QoS and then to DMZ, enable it and set it to the local address. | 08:55 |
| Kvaks | Am I the only one annoyed by the fact that Gnome Do's linux executable is called Do.exe? | 08:55 |
| LemonAid | AlanBell, thank you. | 08:56 |
| mister2 | alanbell: it did, i'm rebooting it to see if that fixes it... | 08:56 |
| coolstar-ipod | afidegnum: they get extracted to / | 08:56 |
| AlanBell | Kvaks: mono executeables end in .exe, this is normal | 08:56 |
| Antstheguy | Why annoyed? | 08:56 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: doing that will it drop my current session | 08:56 |
| Myrtti | jatt: welcome to the marvelous world of C# and Mono | 08:56 |
| Kvaks | Because it's like all windowsy. | 08:56 |
| AlanBell | mister2: is it an official pressed CD? | 08:56 |
| aBound | Kvaks, Switch to Synapse it's a better alternative over Gnome Do. | 08:56 |
| Myrtti | eh, that was for Kvaks, sorry jatt | 08:56 |
| HashNuke | Is there a way in which I can disable rebooting capabilities for a user? I read about CAP_SYS_BOOT how do I set it? | 08:56 |
| Kvaks | aBound: I'll check it out. | 08:57 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: you can do that real quick and I'll wait here for ya. | 08:57 |
| mister2 | alanbell define: official pressed? | 08:57 |
| aBound | Kvaks, No problem. :P | 08:57 |
| afidegnum | i can't find it | 08:58 |
| AlanBell | mister2: well is it a CD you got at a conference or something or an iso file you downloaded and burned? bit curious why you are using 11.04 rather than 11.10 | 08:58 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: did that and its still not working | 08:59 |
| bsmith093 | im trying to get kde installed in ubuntu lucid and it says cant find kubuntu desktop package | 08:59 |
| mister2 | alanbell i downloaded it and burned it myself. I'm using 11.04 because i had some problems with 11.10 on this machine a few times when i was trying to install it. | 08:59 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: then its most likely an issue with your dyndns | 09:00 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: the way i access my router gui , is because i am nx to the box , so i pull up a browser and 192.169.1.1 | 09:00 |
| Mcl0vin | *168 | 09:00 |
| mintman | got sidetracked back | 09:00 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: but it is working for the ssh | 09:00 |
| bazhang | bsmith093, kubuntu-desktop is the package name | 09:00 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: it is resolving the name to the correct IP address | 09:00 |
| mintman | apt search kubuntu | 09:01 |
| mintman | !apt search | 09:01 |
| bazhang | mintman, its apt-cache search | 09:01 |
| bsmith093 | saya it has broken deps for this package | 09:01 |
| mintman | bazhang: been a while | 09:01 |

| bazhang | bsmith093, please paste the exact error along with the command to pastebin | 09:02 |
| mintman | !apt cache search | 09:02 |
| ubottu | mintman: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 09:02 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: all I can think of is its either your apache setup or IP tables on your box or router | 09:02 |
| mintman | !apt-cache search | 09:03 |
| Salaman | Hello | 09:03 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: I would consider opening a thread on the ubuntu forums | 09:03 |
| bazhang | mintman, for using the bot : /msg ubottu find package | 09:03 |
| Salaman | Can somone help me with sharing internet connection? | 09:03 |

| mister2 | alanbell it did it again | 09:03 |
| iceroot | !ics | Salaman | 09:03 |
| ubottu | Salaman: If you want to share the internet connection of your Ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing | 09:03 |

| chadwick | yeah virizon fttp blocks 80 and 25 | 09:04 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: yes | 09:04 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: you may get a firewall config tool (such as ufw ) and configure it with everything open. Whats your ISP? | 09:05 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: brb | 09:05 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: i don't know their name, its a fiber cut to the house , 12Mbps and i never had to call them or pay them a penney for the past 3 yrs i lived in the house, its never down , or slow, didn't had a single issue | 09:07 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: called them once , when i moved to turn the service on, and that was it ... | 09:07 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: some ISP's block port 80 to prevent abuse | 09:07 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: but it was working before :) | 09:08 |
| liao | haha | 09:08 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: not externally was it? | 09:08 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: it was | 09:09 |
| oops | Mclovin: and what have you changed since then? | 09:09 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: dyndns domain name | 09:09 |
| oops | Mcl0vin: gimme your dyndns domain name and I'll see if I can connect | 09:10 |
| coolstar-ipod | oops: Try connecting using your ip | 09:10 |
| coolstar-ipod | *Mcl0vin | 09:10 |

| Mcl0vin | coolstar-ipod: i tried that and not working | 09:11 |
| Mcl0vin | but i can still use something.dyndns-server.com to ssh to my box and to NX to my box | 09:11 |
| Mcl0vin | oops: you know what NX right | 09:11 |
| coolstar-ipod | Mcl0vin: try connecting using the internal ip | 09:11 |
| bsmith093 | bazhang: any ideas whats wrong? | 09:11 |
| Mcl0vin | coolstar-ipod: you want me to use none routeable address from about side the router ?! | 09:12 |
| Mcl0vin | coolstar-ipod: or you mean from inside my LAN | 09:13 |
| coolstar-ipod | Mcl0vin: inside LAN | 09:13 |
| Mcl0vin | coolstar-ipod: ^^ if that was the case , yes i have already did that and it is working | 09:13 |
| Mcl0vin | cconstantine: also from inside the lan i tried mydomain.com and it works | 09:13 |
| coolstar-ipod | Mcl0vin: Did you check your firewall's settings? | 09:14 |

| dirtydevil | I installed ubuntu 10.10, but after restarting it is giving an rub-editenv:error: cannot open the file /boot/grub/grubenv , help me I am having a lot of trouble because of it | 09:19 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: can you boot Ubuntu? | 09:20 |
| dirtydevil | ya I have bootable usb, | 09:20 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: I mean from the install | 09:21 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: its stuck at this error | 09:21 |
| Pancakez | is there a way I can set the unity/gnome configuration settings to default? | 09:21 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: can you mount the install in nautilus on the bootable USB? | 09:21 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: no, I don't know how to do it | 09:22 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: click on it in the sidebar | 09:22 |
| metaspike | hello hoodliums- Pancakez, when they are saved, arent they the default? or do you mean between user accounts? | 09:22 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: its just a bios black screen just this error written over it and not progressing ahead | 09:22 |
| zhownx | is there any client to use yahoo messenger in oneiric? any idea? =) | 09:23 |
| mintman | coolstar-ipod: Nevermind he doesn't run the ISP or even pay for the connection. Could be system wide update by client | 09:23 |
| metaspike | i have a question, it's driving me nutes. how do i customize jackd auto-connection channels if say, I want mplayer to always load and use 8 channels not just 2. | 09:23 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: are you booted into the USB? | 09:23 |
| Pancakez | metaspike I mean restore the settings to the way they were when first installed | 09:23 |
| metaspike | zhownx: probably pidgin | 09:23 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: ya | 09:23 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: open the drive in the places menu | 09:24 |
| Mcl0vin | mintman: what do you mean ? | 09:24 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: it's listed as __ GB filesystem | 09:24 |
| metaspike | Pancakez: considering that user settings are stored under your user folder eg /home/Pancakez - one can remove it- im not sure if it's ~/.nautilus or ~/.gnome or what though but if you get it, then you can log back in with the defaults. | 09:25 |
| metaspike | remove the settings under the user folder obiously, not the user folder itself, that would be bad! | 09:25 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: I opened places | 09:26 |
| mintman | Mcl0vin: free internet! be happy. mines not free. Dad works for Quest they do updates to routers nation wide so u could lose features or have to pay for services. Way for company to feed there cash cow . | 09:26 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: now at / folder | 09:26 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: can you see the contents of the install? | 09:26 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: ya | 09:27 |
| Pancakez | metaspike, I'll try that. | 09:27 |
| Mcl0vin | mintman: is there a test i can do to check is they are blocking port 80 | 09:27 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: now what to do? | 09:27 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: can you run a terminal and enter "ls /media" | 09:27 |
| sabayonuser2 | >join ubuntu-fr | 09:27 |
| dirtydevil | ya | 09:28 |
| zhownx | I've installed gwibber... I want to stop auto start the gwibber service.. any idea? | 09:28 |
| mintman | Mcl0vin: not sure ? I really believe u have a change in settings | 09:28 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: what's the output of the command? | 09:28 |
| chadwick | mc: give me your ip adress | 09:29 |
| dirtydevil | apt cdrom e5* something drive and my Disk drive | 09:29 |
| chadwick | ill see if port 80 is blocked | 09:29 |
| Mcl0vin | mintman: coolstar-ipod this is my ISP http://www.egreenfield.com/ | 09:29 |
| chadwick | by doing a whois and researching your isp | 09:29 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: I can see the drive where I have installed ubuntu | 09:29 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: what's the name of the folder of the drive? | 09:30 |
| metaspike | zhownx: consider rcconf (console) and bum (gui) service managers | 09:30 |
| dirtydevil | 47GB File System | 09:30 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: can you run "sudo apt-get install chroot" | 09:31 |
| chadwick | http://www.egreenfield.com/.... whats your IP block? | 09:31 |
| chadwick | its obviousely a reseller | 09:31 |
| Mcl0vin | mintman: should i call them and ask if they block port 80 | 09:31 |
| zhownx | metaspike, is there any way to refresh gwibber every 1 minute? | 09:31 |
| coolstar-ipod | !info chroot | 09:32 |
| ubottu | Package chroot does not exist in oneiric | 09:32 |
| metaspike | refresh, huh? probably, look in its settings v_v | 09:32 |
| metaspike | unless you mean the service, and by refresh you mean restart, with say. cron. | 09:32 |
| scsix | I need to recover deleted folders in a lvm system, which is the best utility for this? | 09:32 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: i am connecting it to internet | 09:32 |
| metaspike | scsix: best does not mean easiest to use, consider testdisk | 09:33 |
| geirha | scsix: The "best" would be to use your backup solution's restore ability. | 09:34 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: ok you don't need to install chroot. I realized it comes with Ubuntu | 09:34 |
| mintman | Mcl0vin: Heard of this new package sold it with house hadn't seen it personnelly. Form what my father was getting at it was a limited service , but provided a package deal to new housing. Fiber optics gave a great deal. Just paying for the service up front. | 09:34 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: okay so what to do next? | 09:34 |
| scsix | ok, thanks to all | 09:35 |
| Mcl0vin | mintman: but there should be a test i can run to see if they block port 80 | 09:35 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: can you enter in the terminal "sudo chroot ", and drag the folder of the drive into the terminal? | 09:35 |
| metaspike | fibre optics? T1000 - just like the like terminator | 09:35 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: then press enter | 09:35 |
| ikonia | "sudo chroot" won't do anything | 09:36 |
| Anomie21 | Anyone know when Absinthe will be released for Ubuntu? | 09:36 |
| coolstar-ipod | ikonia: it will. | 09:36 |
| ikonia | no, it won't, you have to give a path to act as the root home | 09:37 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: it is saying that chroot: missing operand | 09:37 |
| coolstar-ipod | ikonia: I told him to enter it in and drag the folder of the drive into the terminal | 09:37 |
| ikonia | coolstar-ipod: that is nonsense | 09:37 |
| ikonia | dirtydevil: it is missing an argument as I was trying to say | 09:37 |
| ikonia | dirtydevil: you need to specify where you want to chroot into | 09:37 |
| Humbedooh | this isn't windows :( | 09:37 |
| dirtydevil | okay | 09:37 |
| ikonia | dirtydevil: eg: /mnt/new_root | 09:37 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: ok enter "sudo chroot <folder>" | 09:38 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: I have done that | 09:38 |
| dirtydevil | now I am in root@ubuntu | 09:38 |
| metaspike | Anomie21: probably never, even ubuntu has the sense to think twice before adding a jailbreaker to its official repositories | 09:38 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: run update-grub | 09:38 |
| ikonia | no | 09:38 |
| ikonia | don' | 09:38 |
| ikonia | don't | 09:38 |
| ikonia | you are missing file systems | 09:38 |
| paulus68 | with rsnapshot is it normal that the target directory remains empty? | 09:38 |
| Anomie21 | metaspike: It says on the Absinthe website that the linux one is just waited to be bundled (this was 2d ago) | 09:38 |
| ikonia | you'll need proc mounted in the chroot | 09:38 |
| ikonia | !grub2 | dirtydevil | 09:39 |
| ubottu | dirtydevil: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows?

| ikonia | dirtydevil: in that link explains how to use chroot to update grub2 | 09:39 |
| mintman | Mcl0vin: In this case I wouldn't run that test messing with ur contract. Contact company ask if they support ssh. I wouldn't play with my housing authority. U belong to a community make sure all my setting are correct first.. This is odd for california to start restrictions. Those communities are expensive and the house is not cheap. Uncle owns 2 houses in the palm springs area as well... | 09:39 |
| mintman | ...as san deigo | 09:39 |
| ikonia | coolstar-ipod is leading you into a mess as core setup is missing | 09:39 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: use the link ikonia gave you | 09:39 |
| mintman | Mcl0vin: personnelly I think it is a setting in ur linux box | 09:40 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: you need to mount proc, dev, and sysfs | 09:40 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: before running update-grub I need you to run a few commands | 09:40 |
| coolstar-ipod | dirtydevil: first open a new terminal and run "sudo mount --bind /dev /media/<folder>/dev" | 09:41 |
| ikonia | coolstar-ipod: let him use the link | 09:42 |
| coolstar-ipod | ikonia: right | 09:42 |
| ikonia | coolstar-ipod: its clear you don't know what you are doing with it, the document guides clearly and without miss-information | 09:42 |
| Mcl0vin | i used canyouseeme.org and it looks like they are blocking it :( | 09:42 |
| coolstar-ipod | ikonia: I do know. I just haven't used chroot in months...:( | 09:43 |
| Mcl0vin | mintman: coolstar-ipod ^^ | 09:43 |
| ikonia | coolstar-ipod: no, you don't, you don't know how to use chroot, you didn't check before giving him info, you didn't know the missing file systems where important and you told him to run a command that could cause a problem without the file systems | 09:43 |
| jatt | how can I get the current display resolution in xubuntu? | 09:43 |
| jatt | is there a command for this? | 09:44 |
| Humbedooh | xrandr | 09:44 |
| coolstar-ipod | ikonia: I know about running X apps from chroots. I used to run synaptic from one to customize live cd's | 09:44 |
| Humbedooh | knowing and passing on knowledge is two different things :> | 09:45 |
| coolstar-ipod | ikonia: I should've refreshed my memory after months of not using chroot though | 09:45 |
| Humbedooh | are* | 09:45 |

| Humbedooh | so was everybody else :( | 09:55 |
| * ikonia has told coolstar-ipod to stop doing me commands | 09:55 | |
| ikonia | coolstar-ipod: if you are having a problem with someone in the #ubuntu channel spamming you, please join #ubuntu-ops and report it | 09:55 |
| dirtydevil | coolstar-ipod: sda sda1 to sda 6 is the output | 09:55 |
| coolstar-ipod | ikonia: ok | 09:55 |
| Humbedooh | adildeaux...very clever name | 09:55 |
| dirtydevil | ikonia: what to do now? its giving that error | 09:56 |
| coolstar-ipod | Humbedooh: but he was very racist. | 09:56 |
| glioros | Humbedooh: Yes, no desktop environment. And it is important to do not install anything on it. | 09:56 |
| Humbedooh | coolstar-ipod, read it in french | 09:56 |
| ikonia | coolstar-ipod: what part of "report it in #ubuntu-ops" am I not making clear | 09:56 |
| lolo__ | salut | 09:57 |

| Cheery | kieppie: good. okay, what kind of help do you need? | 10:05 |
| kieppie | I have a system running X with no desktop env, and I'd like to resize a window that I've xinit. xwit seems to fir the bill, but the following has no effect: xwit -resize 1360,768 -all | 10:06 |

| Ivoz | its in fstab, "non /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0" | 10:07 |

| Cheery | kieppie: are you sure you see what are you doing? | 10:11 |

| Myrtti | meco: if you have both installed, you can choose it at login | 10:13 |
| Cheery | I try configure my ubuntu to use uxterm instead of gnome-terminal because former is too slow | 10:13 |
| meco | Myrtti: OK, I only have the default, GNOME. | 10:13 |
| bazhang | meco, install the xubuntu-desktop package if not | 10:13 |
| meco | bazhang: ok. | 10:14 |
| bazhang | !purexfce | meco if you want to go pure (ie zero gnome) | 10:14 |
| ubottu | meco if you want to go pure (ie zero gnome): If you want to remove all !KDE and !Gnome packages and have a default !Xubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce » | 10:14 |
| kieppie | Cheery: nope - no dice. the setup is thus: I have XBMC running straight on X, no w/m or d/e, and I have a script withing XMBC calling GMPC along with xwit. GMPC load fine, but not in the correct size | 10:15 |

| mang0 | theadmin: Ah, thanks. | 10:56 |
| theadmin | zhownx: Huh? | 10:56 |
| mang0 | zhownx: Just install, and then use "sudo apt-get autoremove" to remove un needed packages. | 10:56 |
| LjL | zhownx: apt-get doesn't install "stuff you don't need". it installs dependencies, which as the name implies, are necessary to make the package you're installing work. | 10:56 |
| zhownx | eg: we want to install wine, but dont want to install ttf-mscorefonts-installer? | 10:56 |
| theadmin | zhownx: Wine needs Microsoft fonts. | 10:56 |
| bal | iceroot: The package 'scim-ml-phonetic' is in an inconsistent state and needs to be reinstalled, but no archive can be found for it. Do you want to remove this package now to continue? | 10:57 |

| ashutosh_ | how i know about channels | 10:58 |

| LjL | zhownx: sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends install wine | 10:58 |
| LjL | zhownx: that's a "recommended" package, it's not strictly necessary, so you *can* avoid installing it. APT in Ubuntu installs recommends by default. | 10:58 |
| zhownx | LjL, so when wine will still work when I didnt install the ttf-mscorefonts-installer? | 10:59 |
| bal | theadmin: still the erro message is there | 10:59 |
| zhownx | * LjL, so wine will still work when I didnt install the ttf-mscorefonts-installer? | 10:59 |

| llutz | paulus68: "backup /home/ localhost/" same for all line following. you already set "snapshot_root /media/backup/rsnapshot/" so down in "backup what where" you have to specify a dir relative to it | 12:00 |
| llutz | paulus68: so your backups got to "/media/backup/rsnapshot/localhost" | 12:00 |
| llutz | paulus68: and make sure /media/backup/rsnapshot/ exists | 12:01 |

| studiogrynn | Good day all! | 14:12 |
| studiogrynn | For several days I have been struggling with a Unity issue. After installing and removing X11vnc, Unity lost several of it preferences. | 14:12 |
| studiogrynn | It was failing to hold it's setting in both Unity and Unity 2D, and would boot to the desktop without unity. External disks no longer automount in nautilus and my previously hidden desktop now refuses to hide. | 14:12 |
| zth | i have xinerama active with dualhead (and 2 separate monitors, not clone), but whenever i play a game in fullscreen the screens becomes clones and i have to log out + log in for it to not be clones but separate again. any soloution to this in order to avoid having to relog? | 14:12 |
| studiogrynn | So far I have tried: sudo Unity --reset, re-enabling the Unity plugin in ccsm, dumping and resetting (gconf, dconf, metacity, and Unity config files), purging and reinstalling (ubuntu-desktop and unity). | 14:13 |
| studiogrynn | I have also tried settings in gconf-editor and dconf-editor. Even though the desktop is not set to show, it does not hide. | 14:13 |
| studiogrynn | I have followed dozens of blog posts and forum posts to get where I am now: | 14:13 |
| studiogrynn | Ubuntu desktop and Unity have been purged and re-installed. Unity now loads without intervention, but disks still will not show up or automount in nautilus (they do show up in dolphin) and Unity will not hold any items I add to the launcher. There could be other issues I have not yet discovered. So after 5 days of trying to fix this on my own I am reaching out to the gurus. | 14:13 |

| LjL | pok0j: it takes up less disk space (assuming you don't remove the "heavy" packages from Ubuntu), but otherwise, no | 14:33 |
| ubluntu | pok0j: I use ubuntu with fluxbox and its very light / configurable | 14:33 |

| studiogrynn | pok0k: the lightest distro I have found is puppy linux. Super fast download you can load on cd or thumb drive and boot from there for a test. | 14:35 |
| dondon_ | the network connections works fine on the same pc in windows. i assume this is a driver problem (during ubuntu installation the network was working too) | 14:35 |
| pangolin | dondon_: so the problem is it works? | 14:35 |
| ubluntu | you could build a very very light gentoo if you wanted also pok0j | 14:36 |

| studiogrynn | jrib: are you still with me? | 14:37 |
| jrib | studiogrynn: I don't know much about unity so can't suggest much more. Look for something interesting in ~/.xsession-errors | 14:37 |
| studiogrynn | Thank you : ) will do! | 14:38 |
| dondon_ | it worked during the installation process but after rebooting it doesn't! oops: i've tried plugging it in and out several times - but since it works in windows that can't be the problem | 14:38 |
| dondon_ | the network card is integrated in the motherboard (asrock p67 pro) | 14:39 |
| ubluntu | well is it a realtek or what ? | 14:39 |

| NimeshNeema | imbezol: :-( i can't find the man pages | 15:21 |
| LjL | Raymond_: ok. well generally, you extract a .tar.bz2 like that into your home somewhere, then you "make" (compile) the program, and then you "make install" to install it in the appropriate places. you can also use "checkinstall" to be able to remove it later. note that this is all done outside of Ubuntu's packaging system, so it can break things. | 15:21 |

| robertzaccour | ikonia: I have no idea how to install the driver after downloading the link. there's no clear instructions and clicking my way around didn't work. | 15:54 |
| mang0 | Righto, I'll have a look NimeshNeema . | 15:54 |
| crolax | Is there a specific reason why Unity 3D is a slideshow on an AMD gpu? | 15:54 |
| xgt001 | deadlytackler, may be recompiling the kernel is the way to go | 15:54 |
| Ibis | Anyone know of a software I can use to know if my router supports gigabit speed? | 15:54 |
| NimeshNeema | mang0: shure.... | 15:54 |
| aquinorcd_ | Hi, I am testing Linux and need help to fix a boot problem Can anyone help me | 15:54 |
| DMTarmey | ubottu im using a mix os fedora mix ubuntu called fuduntu and im not sure how to use terminal commands with this | 15:54 |
| ubottu | DMTarmey: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 15:54 |
| xgt001 | crolax, install the latest unity, turn on vsync in ccsm | 15:54 |
| mang0 | !ask | aquinorcd_ | 15:54 |
| ubottu | aquinorcd_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 15:54 |
| teh_augmenter | Ibis: I would look up the router in Google and see if what the specs read | 15:55 |
| LjL | DMTarmey: ask in their support channel or forum, we can't help you with things that aren't Ubuntu here | 15:55 |
| Ibis | aquinorcd_: Specifically state what you're experiencing please. (Boot problem can be caused by many things) | 15:55 |
| Ibis | teh_augmenter: But mines doesn't tell me if it can do gigabit or not. | 15:55 |
| crolax | xgt001, I have the latest unity + prop. drivers; Unity 2D is perfect, 3D games work perfect too. Unity (3D) is just crap | 15:55 |
| teh_augmenter | Ibis: what is the router model? | 15:55 |
| crolax | xgt001, how would enabling vsync in ccsm help? | 15:55 |
| Ibis | I only know that it's a Netgear WPN824v3. | 15:56 |
| DMTarmey | LjL im asking here because i was only trying it and there dosnt seem to be anyone on there support channel and i need to access my ubuntu to do somwe work | 15:56 |
| teh_augmenter | Ibis: I put DD-WRT on mine so there is more information available on the router | 15:56 |
| ikonia | robertzaccour: what is in the file you downloaded ? | 15:56 |
| Ibis | DD-WRT? | 15:56 |
| mneptok | Ibis: Netgear's site doesn't tell you? really? | 15:56 |
| aquinorcd_ | I am having a busy box v1.18.4 Ubuntu 1:1.18.4-2 Ubuntu2 built-in shell (ash) (initramfs) message. Then the boot locks out. I tried to work on the grub but it does not recognize it | 15:56 |
| xgt001 | crolax, ok basically on my laptop if i run unity with ac power i get it done properly, i had seen some bugfixes hey wait | 15:56 |
| deadlytackler | @xgt001 fine will try to recompile. is there any option to go to kernel file and edit it from terminal | 15:57 |
| Ibis | mneptok: It only provides me documentations on how to set it up and trouble shooting. Nothing about speed in megabits. | 15:57 |
| Pseudoephedrine | Can i use a PFB on linux somehow?? | 15:57 |

| teh_augmenter | Ibis: looks like its only 10/100M which means it is not gigabit | 15:57 |
| xgt001 | crolax, so sorry there is a ppa (don remember the exact name) but it is specifically with amd fixes :) google out | 15:57 |
| teh_augmenter | Ibis: dd-wrt.com | 15:57 |
| crolax | xgt001, a ppa for unity? | 15:57 |
| xgt001 | crolax, a ppa for unity with workarounds for amd issues, | 15:58 |
| ikonia | robertzaccour: I've just looked at the contents of that file and it doesn't appear to contain any Linux compatible files (or mac for that matter) | 15:58 |
| teh_augmenter | Ibis: you search your model number and get instructions. DD-WRT is a linux firmware for routers enabling more advanced settings | 15:58 |
| valerie_ | LjL and MonkeyDust thanks | 15:58 |
| teh_augmenter | Ibis: Its pretty sweet, if you have roommates or similar you can control bandwidth between them through a Quality Of Service (QOS) Setting | 15:59 |
| Gentoo64 | Ibis: you wont need custom firmware to see if your router can do gigabit :s | 15:59 |

| crolax | xgt001, ah, no thanks, that will probably introduce more problems than it'll solve :) | 16:00 |
| xgt001 | crolax, my apologies for not remembering the name , i had read it somewhere, sometime back, i am on arch now | 16:00 |
| teh_augmenter | Gentoo64: already told them. Its only 10/100M aka not gigabit | 16:00 |
| mneptok | Ibis: i found that in less than 3 minutes. your Google-fu needs time at the dojo. | 16:00 |
| xgt001 | crolax, it fixed the slideshow issue for me actually | 16:00 |
| teh_augmenter | mneptok: ditto lol - 2 second google fu | 16:00 |
| crolax | xgt001, you know if Gnome Shell works with AMD cards on Arch? | 16:00 |
| Gentoo64 | crolax: bit vague | 16:01 |
| Gentoo64 | if its a modern amd card it will | 16:01 |
| pangolin | ask in #archlinux | 16:01 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax: Arch works with anything, lol. Its Arch. All about your setup, join #archlinux | 16:01 |
| Ibis | mneptok: Lol, I landed on a different netgear page that only had firmware and documentation on how to set it up. :'( | 16:01 |
| crolax | Gentoo64, no modern AMD card works with Gnome Shell when using non-open drivers on Ubuntu afaik | 16:01 |
| Ibis | Thanks anyway. | 16:01 |
| Gentoo64 | crolax: it should | 16:02 |
| Ibis | Looks like I won't be getting 1000Mbits. | 16:02 |
| crolax | Gentoo64, I know it should, but it doesn't ;) | 16:02 |

| teh_augmenter | crolax, I have an HD5770 in my desktop. No issues. hmmmmm | 16:03 |
| koll | HOW TO CHANGE IRC? | 16:04 |
| crolax | Gentoo64, I know it's powerful enough, it's just that the non-open drivers give corruption all over the place with Gnome Shell | 16:04 |
| teh_augmenter | type /join #channel | 16:04 |
| Gentoo64 | koll: the client? or the xchannel | 16:04 |
| koll | thanks | 16:04 |
| crolax | teh_augmenter, what drivers do you use? (I'm talking about Gnome Shell btw, not Unity) | 16:04 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax, I don't use unity either. I just use the file from AMD that you have to sudo bash | 16:05 |
| Gentoo64 | crolax: not sure why its giving corruption, do you even need the prop drivers/ | 16:05 |
| Ibis | koll: What do you mean by "Change IRC"? Is that to go to another IRC Network? Or to join another Channel? (Channel meaning chatroom, such as #Ubuntu, #Freenode, ##hardware) | 16:05 |
| Ibis | Or you want to use another IRC chat client other than Xchat? | 16:05 |
| crolax | Gentoo64, prop. drivers are needed to play games, but most importantly: power consumption is way lower with prop. drivers | 16:05 |
| teh_augmenter | Ibis, I think he already left | 16:05 |
| teh_augmenter | Ibis, yup | 16:05 |
| teh_augmenter | lol | 16:06 |

| Ibis | LOL @ #SOPA | 16:06 |
| crolax | teh_augmenter, yeah, I used that file from AMD too (it has an option to create .deb files, that's what I used) | 16:06 |
| Ibis | teh_augmenter: You go there, and have a look for us and report back... | 16:06 |

| crolax | teh_augmenter, so you get no corruption when using the drivers from AMD with your HD5770 in Gnome Shell? | 16:07 |
| d3ngar | I seem to have a major problem with my laptop monitor: it doesn't show anything. It is connected and recognised though. Once Ubuntu boots, I can see stuff on the second screen | 16:08 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax, what kind of curroption are you talking about? video distortion? | 16:08 |
| Hexaditidom | Having problems connecting to the internet. Followed this http://sourceforge.net/projects/ath9k-htc/ , but I'm unsure what to do next. How do I get my usb wifi adapter to appear in ifconfig? | 16:09 |

| AFD | is there a way to have empathy chat logs backed up to ubuntuone? | 16:09 |
| AFD | I would like them synced between machines | 16:10 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax, gnome 3 - I bet if you used arch your gnome would work. They're still on gnome 2 some revision iirc | 16:10 |
| crolax | AFD, you can link the log folder to a folder in your Ubuntu One folder | 16:10 |
| Gentoo64 | teh_augmenter: gnome 2 is gone ages ago | 16:11 |
| crolax | teh_augmenter, Gnome 3 is much more productive for me... | 16:11 |
| teh_augmenter | Gentoo64, if it aint broke don't fix it | 16:11 |
| Gentoo64 | well | 16:11 |
| talexb | I'm on Ubuntu 11.10 and trying to enable the Remote Desktop. And failing. I have no System menu, and don't see anything helpful in the Applications -> Other menu. | 16:11 |
| FSK | good day! | 16:11 |
| Gentoo64 | you have to move to gnome 3 unless you want outdates system | 16:11 |
| talexb | I'd love to be able to see the System menu again .. | 16:11 |
| crolax | talexb, press the Windows key (next to Control-key) and type "Remote" | 16:11 |
| talexb | http://ubuntugenius.wordpress.com/2011/10/17/ubuntu-11-10-upgrade-missing-your-system-menu-preferences-administration-launchers/ doesn't help me. | 16:11 |
| Gateway` | hello guys, here is one the rules that I set on the gateway server : iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i $ilan -s 192.168.26.192/26 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128 | 16:12 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax, try opening up about 15GB for arch and sharing the home partition with ubuntu, your files will be located in the same spot and you can give it a shot | 16:12 |
| talexb | crolax, Nothing happened. | 16:12 |
| crolax | teh_augmenter, I've ran Arch for some time, still prefer Ubuntu's package system | 16:12 |
| Gateway` | normally all machines having an ip address between 192.168.26.192 and 192.168.26.254 have to pass by the squid server | 16:12 |
| crolax | talexb, did you install the default Ubuntu 11.10 desktop version? | 16:13 |
| FSK | i'm sorry to disturb but does anybody use backtrack? | 16:13 |
| LjL | !backtrack | FSK | 16:13 |
| ubottu | FSK: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux), Ultimate Edition | 16:13 |
| MonkeyDust | FSK type /join #backtrack-linux | 16:13 |
| talexb | crolax, I moved to the Gnome classic -- couldn't make head or tail out of Ubuntu One or whatever it was called. | 16:13 |
| oneliner | i guess with the new .15 generic all the people with realtek woes are going to return here for more, can someone update the realtek pains blog entry to reflect dkms usage? | 16:13 |
| FSK | thanks MonkeyDust | 16:13 |
| talexb | crolax, I have Applications and Places menus. I restarted my machine after the last update and I'm trying to restart the Remote Desktop thing. | 16:14 |
| crolax | talexb, Ubuntu One is a file-syncing service, you're looking for "Unity"; I first didn't like Unity too, but then I saw it works a lot faster | 16:14 |
| wdonkey | damnit | 16:14 |
| AFD | crolax: ~/.local/share/TPlogger/logs has the conversations stored from Empathy... are they not encrypted or something? will it "just work"? | 16:14 |
| crolax | AFD, give it a try | 16:14 |
| Gateway` | can somebody help please ? | 16:14 |
| Gentoo64 | crolax: how long have you been getting screen corruption for? | 16:14 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax, that kind of corruption is probably the most annoying thing I've seen. is this a desktop? | 16:14 |
| Gentoo64 | crolax: and when did you move from open to prop driver | 16:14 |
| Gateway` | or just give me his opinion about what I've said | 16:14 |
| rabbi1 | my pidgin status doesn't change to Available from Away after when I come back ... ? confused .. | 16:15 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax, what output are you using? what resolution, refresh rate, etc | 16:15 |
| crolax | Gentoo64, teh_augmenter, got the corruption the minute I started using Gnome 3 Shell + fglrx | 16:15 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax, might be a driver issue with the refresh rate. | 16:15 |
| Gentoo64 | crolax: sounds like some forumware issue, ive had similar before moving from nouveau to nvidia. leabe the prop driver on. power off the pc and turn the plug off | 16:15 |
| crolax | teh_augmenter, I think it's an issue independent of those things; the screenshot I showed you was just from a quick Google | 16:15 |
| Gentoo64 | crolax: then hold the power button down for few secs to drain the power, and try again | 16:16 |
| Gentoo64 | it might sort it | 16:16 |
| crolax | Gentoo64, I doubt that will do anything | 16:16 |
| talexb | crolax, Right, Unity. Didn't make sense to me. Gnome is fine, but I can't figure out what menu will allow me to enable remote desktop. I had it on before. | 16:16 |
| Gentoo64 | crolax: try it | 16:16 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax, Gentoo64, it clears the resisters on the motherboard, it actually does do something | 16:16 |
| talexb | I'll do it from the command line if necessary. | 16:16 |
| Gentoo64 | it fully drains the power yes | 16:16 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax, it also will clear out the resistors on the video card too | 16:16 |
| sweeet | Wireless problem: Before I can start to use WiFi with my USB-dongle I need to issue the command "sudo ip link set wlan0 up". How come this has te be done upon every reboot? | 16:17 |
| Gentoo64 | capacitors you mean :) | 16:17 |
| teh_augmenter | Gentoo64, yeh mb | 16:17 |
| talexb | teh_augmenter, You probably mean caps (capacitors), not resistors. | 16:17 |
| teh_augmenter | Gentoo64, I've only ever tried that on a laptop | 16:17 |
| crolax | talexb, really, Unity works a lot faster; but you can always do Alt+F2 and run "vinagre" | 16:17 |

| Explodingpiglets | crap | 16:18 |
| Gentoo64 | and i drained the power and it sorted it | 16:18 |

| teh_augmenter | Gentoo64, when you do that on a desktop do you have to switch off the power supply? | 16:18 |
| crolax | teh_augmenter, I know that it does something, but not something that would help resolve this | 16:18 |
| d3ngar | Help, my laptop's screen is dead during boot and even thereafter! | 16:18 |

| teh_augmenter | Gentoo64, like I said, only did that on a laptop | 16:18 |
| teh_augmenter | Gentoo64, that works | 16:19 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax, its worth a try imo, that limits it to strictly software after that | 16:19 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax, it could be mixed data in the card, that should clear it out | 16:19 |
| crolax | teh_augmenter, well, for the sake of completeness I'll give it a try | 16:19 |
| teh_augmenter | crolax, only should take a minute anyway | 16:20 |

| samrat | auronandace: how do I edit it then? | 16:53 |

| d3ngar | LjL; But it's the only thing that has changed | 17:16 |
| d3ngar | Why does the screen not work anymore? | 17:16 |
| imbezol | if it truly doesn't work.. it has nothing to do with the kernel | 17:16 |
| imbezol | otherwise, your grub is perhaps not loading properly | 17:16 |
| d3ngar | imbezol: It truly does only show green lines after the bios sequence | 17:17 |
| d3ngar | Green lines during grub menu | 17:17 |
| d3ngar | If I press a key it doesn't continue | 17:17 |
| OerHeks | d3ngar, just hold left-shift @ boot to enter grubmenu | 17:17 |
| imbezol | may have to boot off a rescue cd and install grub again | 17:17 |
| d3ngar | OerHeks: I have the grub menu on by default | 17:17 |
| d3ngar | imbezol: But once the screen passes, everything is fine and it continues to boot | 17:18 |
| d3ngar | The second (attached) screen goes on at the log-in screen | 17:18 |
| imbezol | well if your bios menu works your screen is obviously working | 17:18 |
| d3ngar | imbezol: I just can't enable it in Linux | 17:18 |
| d3ngar | So I thought | 17:18 |
| d3ngar | And Grub is fine, since it boots up without issues | 17:19 |
| d3ngar | Just I can't take the attached screen with me | 17:19 |

| Tixos | hi | 18:37 |
| theadmin | ubuntu_nooblet: You need to use apt-get to install gksu... And Ubuntu DOES come with it. | 18:37 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | when I load my LiveUbuntu gnome, and mount & hit alt+F2 and type "gksu nautilus" it says file not found | 18:37 |
| Tixos | what updates just broke my UNITY bar? some updates within the last week just broken CCSM? | 18:37 |
| theadmin | !password | ubuntu_nooblet | 18:38 |
| ubottu | ubuntu_nooblet: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 18:38 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | gksudo nautilus does the same thing, ok | 18:38 |
| OerHeks | dat0m, i don't own one, but the optimus support is growing https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee | 18:38 |
| dat0m | OerHeks, "open a terminal", not possible | 18:38 |
| Jordan_U | ubuntu_nooblet: What version of Ubuntu are you using? You almost never want to "install" something from tar.gz, certainly not gksu. | 18:38 |
| OerHeks | dat0m, open terminal ctrl + alt + T | 18:38 |
| dat0m | OerHeks, no | 18:39 |

| Tixos | theadmin: what recently broken CCSM | 18:40 |
| Tixos | the unity bar sucked before, i fixed it by removing reveal, no its hiding itself again | 18:40 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | I dont think I set a password, but system disagrees. I already deleted the keychain but I can't use cheesebooth webcam without the master password. I know I either put "a" or "123" or blank or mirrored the username but those didn't work | 18:41 |
| theadmin | Tixos: Well I have no idea about Unity, I don't use that stuff. I don't use Compiz, either... And not even Ubuntu. So, can't really help there if it's something really recent. | 18:41 |
| Tixos | hmm ok | 18:42 |
| Tixos | kinda sucks :( | 18:42 |
| theadmin | Tixos: Wait for someone else I guess | 18:42 |
| irule | I upgraded to latest stable, now I have 14 GB disk use, how may I reduce that? | 18:42 |
| Tixos | pretty sure i didnt notice anything related that i updated, just kernel to *.15 | 18:42 |
| theadmin | ubuntu_nooblet: Oh, that. It's asking for your login password most likely. | 18:42 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | pretty sure I left it blank unless ubuntu installer didn't allow that | 18:43 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | used 11.04 gnome | 18:43 |
| theadmin | ubuntu_nooblet: It doesn't allow blank passwords. | 18:43 |

| tdn | Ok. so here's the problem. I accidentially deleted my /etc/fstab. How do I recreate it? | 18:49 |
| geekster_ | postfix tries to connect to port 25, mail server at port 587 | 18:50 |
| tcheck8 | would anyone be able to help me through the process of generating an self signed ssl cert for my server? i'm running into permissions issues where i dont think there should be any | 18:50 |
| geekster_ | theadmin: nope, public one. telnet works there | 18:50 |
| theadmin | geekster_: Try a mail client then :P | 18:50 |
| theadmin | geekster_: mutt is a good one | 18:50 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | I'm in usr/bin and hit Alt+f2 and typed "gksu nautilus" then it says "Could not open location 'file:///home/linux/gksu%20/nautilus' | 18:51 |
| geekster_ | theadmin: but I wanna use like sendmail :p | 18:51 |
| oCean | tcheck8: just so you know, there's #ubuntu-server channel, with specific server help, might find more help there | 18:51 |
| theadmin | geekster_: Err, uh, I don't think sendmail works that way... Not sure | 18:51 |
| tcheck8 | oh, thanks! didn't know about that. | 18:51 |
| theadmin | ubuntu_nooblet: That doesn't make sense... You need to install gksu... "sudo apt-get install gksu". From a TERMINAL, not Alt+F2. | 18:51 |
| geekster_ | theadmin: yes it works, got it working some time ago with different server, but now can't remember how I did it... | 18:52 |
| tdn | That is not really what I need. What I need is to recreate fstab on a running system. By either dumpung /proc/mtab or manually parsing 'mount' or something like that. The system is still running. | 18:52 |
| theadmin | tdn: Then do exactly what you said, look at the output of "mount" and write an fstab respectively. | 18:53 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | thanks, but now it says sudo: apt-get: command not found | 18:53 |
| theadmin | ubuntu_nooblet: Err... You're not using Ubuntu. | 18:54 |
| theadmin | ubuntu_nooblet: And that means we can't support you here. | 18:54 |
| tdn | theadmin, I need to figure out uuid's for disks and such things. | 18:54 |
| tdn | Not sure how. | 18:54 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | I have gnome Terminal, Linux 32-bit Terminal, and Xterm | 18:54 |
| theadmin | tdn: blkid for that... | 18:54 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | I thought gnome was ubuntu | 18:54 |
| theadmin | ubuntu_nooblet: ...Gnome IS used in Ubuntu, although it's not the same thing as Ubuntu. | 18:54 |
| xangua | ubuntu_nooblet: try: "sudo" instead of "sudo:" | 18:55 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | This was installed from an Ubuntu install disc label 11.04... | 18:55 |
| theadmin | xangua: That didn't make any sense just now. "sudo: blah: command not found" is the usual output of "sudo blah". | 18:55 |
| theadmin | xangua: If he was using "sudo:", he'd get "bash: sudo: command not found" | 18:56 |
| theadmin | xangua: :P | 18:56 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | If 'sudo:' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this: cnf sudo: | 18:56 |
| theadmin | err, even "sudo:: command not found" | 18:56 |
| oCean | tdn: I pasted example fstab at http://paste.ubuntu.com/814570/ use command sudo blkid to list the UUID of your partitions | 18:56 |
| theadmin | ubuntu_nooblet: You are using SuSE, not Ubuntu, okay?... | 18:56 |
| theadmin | ubuntu_nooblet: Only SuSE gives messages like those. Ask in their support channel... | 18:56 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | alrigth thanks I'll see if I can find an IRC for that. | 18:56 |

| cristian_c | Hi | 18:58 |
| ssta | DuncanT: you can have it add the keys to known_hosts automatically, but I don't think you can turn the checking off entirely | 18:59 |
| DuncanT | ssta: Adding automatically would be fine | 19:00 |
| ubuntu_nooblet | thanks for being patient. | 19:00 |
| DuncanT | ssta: I'm poking newly-created vms, and I can just clear known_hosts later | 19:00 |
| ssta | DuncanT: set StrictHostKeyChecking to "no" in ~/.ssh/config I think (that's from memory, so check the manpage for ssh_config to make sure I'm remembering correctly) | 19:00 |
| ActionParsnip | ssta: maybe in /etc/ssh/sshd_config ? | 19:01 |
| ssta | ActionParsnip: no, it's a client thing, not a server thing | 19:02 |
| DuncanT | ssta: Ah ha, that can also be done with "-o StrictHostKeyChecking=no"... adding to that the "-o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null" I'd already found and I've won | 19:02 |
| ActionParsnip | ssta: ahh | 19:02 |

| mrlee121 | had everything pointing and working fine with a domain | 19:11 |

| ActionParsnip | mrlee121: i'd use a symlink | 19:12 |
| mrlee121 | i shut down the machine and added a new hard drive | 19:12 |
| NastyNaz | also how do I run commands as different users? I got one called 'deluge' and I want to log in but its a system user | 19:12 |
| mrlee121 | now nothings showing to the WAN but nothings changed in any of my firewall settings and the machine is still in the dmz | 19:12 |
| mrlee121 | but i only get local access and cant access it via the domain | 19:12 |
| mrlee121 | just wondered if i'd missed a startup command or something like that | 19:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Aelingil: you can add the boot option: text or boot root recovery mode | 19:12 |
| ssfdre38 | mrlee121, did your ip address change? | 19:12 |

| ssta | n3urOn_: ctrl-X should offer to save if there's a change since the last save | 19:16 |
| ssfdre38 | mrlee121, yea its dead ip address so it can be due to ISP | 19:16 |
| Aelingil | ActionParsnip, thank you, i'll try that. Any time we boot into "Recovery Mode" our keyboard & Mouse freezes. I wanted to see if text only would cause it also | 19:17 |
| mrlee121 | i dont understand how it could be dead though? it was all working about 20 minutes ago the only thing that changed is the machine was turned off and turned back on again | 19:17 |

| paulus68 | wdonkey: you make sure that your router is connected to your isp router | 19:31 |
| theadmin | vivekimsit: "exec" gives the shell control over to the app, meaning that when the app ends, well, the shell ends too | 19:31 |

| wdonkey | paulus68: says welcome to oc83 (my machines name) and gives me my last login time | 19:45 |
| theadmin | dat0m: Secure Boot. Disable that. | 19:45 |
| theadmin | dat0m: That's your problem. | 19:46 |
| dat0m | theadmin, not possible! | 19:46 |
| dat0m | it's locked | 19:46 |
| theadmin | dat0m: Contact your system's manufacturer then, Linux currently does not support UEFI's secure boot feature. | 19:46 |
| paulus68 | wdonkey: this means that you are connected to your remote machine are you in desktop or in server ubuntu? | 19:46 |
| mega2 | i have 3 partitions on my hd can i merge them using server10.04 if so how | 19:46 |
| wdonkey | desktop | 19:46 |
| dat0m | theadmin, I know, that's the problem :/ | 19:46 |
| paulus68 | wdonkey: if you are in desktop ubuntu you go to your filesystem and there you select connect to network if I am not mistaken | 19:47 |
| theadmin | dat0m: Well, if you're willing to patch the kernel to add the support, you're welcome to ;) | 19:47 |
| paulus68 | wdonkey: it will ask you to enter the ip adres and how you want to connect you are going to use ssh | 19:47 |
| dat0m | theadmin, I don't think UEFI Secure Boot is meant to boot linux :P | 19:48 |
| oCean | dat0m: I think Dell announced there are going to make it user en/disabled, but for now :( | 19:48 |
| MonkeyDust | mega2 best is to backup the data on the partitions, you can then easily merge the partitions with gparted | 19:48 |
| paulus68 | wdonkey: it will ask your login credentials and you will be connected to your remote desktop | 19:48 |
| theadmin | dat0m: Yeah, it's designed for Microsoft systems mostly. I mean, it's mostly their idea. | 19:48 |
| dat0m | oCean, any dates when the new version with en/disable function will be out? | 19:48 |
| dat0m | theadmin, I know :( | 19:48 |
| oCean | dat0m: no Idea. Better contact Dell support. | 19:48 |

| theadmin | Or signed grub or whatever it is to be signed | 19:49 |
| MonkeyDust | dat0m a friend of mine contacted Dell suuport for hardware issues, they're very friendly | 19:49 |

| dat0m | MonkeyDust, it's not really a hardware issue | 19:49 |
| theadmin | dat0m: Well, it is. | 19:49 |
| wdonkey | paulus68: do i need to open the terminal and type in ssh myusername@remotemachinesip everytime ? | 19:50 |
| dat0m | theadmin, grub is what needs to be patched. also, the bios is not hard-ware for me :P | 19:50 |
| tetreb | can I turn off the gnome dock and only start applications with a keyboard shortcut instead? | 19:50 |
| theadmin | dat0m: Err, no, BIOS (actually, you have no BIOS... You have UEFI :/) is a part of the motherboard, so it IS hardware. | 19:50 |
| dat0m | UEFI is a BIOS :p | 19:50 |
| paulus68 | wdonkey: no this was only to check if ssh is working correctly, however now you also have a way to connect to your remote pc using the terminal | 19:50 |
| dat0m | and it can be flashed, it's STORED on the motherboard ;) | 19:51 |
| theadmin | dat0m: UEFI is a *replacement* for BIOS. | 19:51 |
| dat0m | theadmin, the definition of BIOS is Basic Input Output System, and that's what UEFI does too ;) | 19:51 |
| dat0m | but, I don't want to argue about that now, lol | 19:51 |
| paulus68 | wdonkey: you can do it perfectly through nautilus | 19:51 |
| ano1542 | !vhost ano1542@vhost.here | 19:51 |
| theadmin | dat0m: I spose so lol | 19:51 |
| dat0m | I'll contact the support | 19:51 |
| theadmin | dat0m: Yeah, that's the best idea there | 19:51 |
| dat0m | theadmin, but, you were right, it is a weird issue ;) | 19:52 |
| theadmin | dat0m: Very much so. | 19:52 |
| LjL | dat0m: BIOS is not a generic term for "boot firmware", it refers to the IBM-compatible firmware. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS | 19:52 |

| wdonkey | ok MonkeyDust the device checks the partition and everything, can i have access to those partition by ssh in nautilus from my remote computer ? | 20:07 |
| xtgyal | so vftpd help? | 20:08 |
| === Mud is now known as Guest24666 | ||
| MonkeyDust | wdonkey it's possible but tricky, make sure you don't accidentally modify or delete the running partition | 20:09 |
| MonkeyDust | wdonkey let me rephrase that, i'm thinking | 20:10 |
| wdonkey | i didnt even knew what nautilus was 5 minutes ago, it doesnt sound safe to do that by myself | 20:10 |

| SamWharfe | Hey. I've converted from Windows 7 to Ubuntu as of this morning. Loving it so far. Anything that I need to know? Like commands etc? | 20:12 |
| dat0m | hmm, could I boot grub using the windows bootloader? | 20:12 |
| xtgyal | sp how do I get vsftpd to allow uploads to var/www ? | 20:13 |
| xtgyal | *so | 20:13 |
| dat0m | xtgyal, change the permissions of the /var/www folder | 20:13 |
| ubluntu | you can reinstall grub dat0m | 20:14 |
| xtgyal | I was told not to? | 20:14 |
| xtgyal | said it was too much of a security risk | 20:14 |
| dat0m | xtgyal, it is | 20:14 |
| dat0m | ubluntu, no, it needs to be booted by the windows bootloader | 20:14 |
| ubluntu | dat0m: what does ? | 20:14 |
| xtgyal | is there another way? FileZilla can read the files but can't upload to var/www | 20:14 |
| dat0m | ubluntu, grub | 20:15 |
| Browncoyote | /msg nickserv register Redstar1 browncoyote30@gmail.com | 20:15 |
| dat0m | xtgyal, oh, then there is something wrong with the ftp user. SFTP or FTP? | 20:15 |
| ubluntu | dat0m: what are you talking about booting a boot loader with another boot loader | 20:15 |
| xtgyal | just regular FT | 20:15 |
| dat0m | ubluntu, like wubi | 20:15 |
| dat0m | :P | 20:15 |
| xtgyal | *FTP | 20:15 |
| Browncoyote | test | 20:15 |
| dat0m | ubluntu, but without the limitations of wubi | 20:15 |
| ubluntu | ubluntu: wubi = waste of time do a real install | 20:15 |
| MonkeyDust | wubi :( | 20:15 |
| notNicolas | why would ubuntu use Unity by default? It has huge performance problems | 20:15 |

| dat0m | that's why I want to boot it using the windows bootloader :P | 20:17 |
| xtgyal | is there another way besides changing the ownership of var/www ? | 20:17 |
| dat0m | xtgyal, not the ownership :P | 20:17 |
| theadmin | dat0m: You're a genius lol, boot plop using Windows bootloader and then have it boot Linux :P | 20:17 |
| xtgyal | it's currently owned as root | 20:18 |
| xtgyal | I'm logged into FTP as myself | 20:18 |
| dat0m | xtgyal, that would really work? :O | 20:18 |
| dat0m | xtgyal, you are using a root account? | 20:18 |
| * Browncoyote Thanks | 20:18 | |
| xtgyal | no? | 20:18 |
| dat0m | xtgyal, why is it owned by root, then? | 20:18 |
| a-saint | hello guys is it me or someone else is having problem with aircrack-ng ......................... 22:15:20 Waiting for beacon frame (BSSID: **:**:**:**:**:**) on channel -1 22:15:20 mon0 is on channel -1, but the AP uses channel 6 | 20:19 |
| dat0m | xtgyal, you should disable the root account on your server (security issues) | 20:19 |
| guntbert | !manual | SamWharfe have a good reading :) | 20:19 |
| ubottu | SamWharfe have a good reading :): The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 20:19 |
| LjL | xtgyal: the proper way would be making a group specific to reading/writing that directory, and then making yourself and/or the FTP server's user a member of that group. | 20:19 |
| xtgyal | there's only one user account here, me, var/www is owned by "root" as default for security, I can only upload to it locally using sudo | 20:19 |
| LjL | dat0m: what are you talking about? the fact that /var/www is owned by root is normal and absolutely doesn't imply that the root user is enabled | 20:19 |
| dat0m | LjL, uh, it's owned by www-data here :P | 20:20 |
| LjL | dat0m: might depend on ubuntu version. | 20:20 |
| xtgyal | probably depends on your server, I have the defualt Ubuntu LAMP stack | 20:20 |
| flintwingel | xtgyal: have you thought about using scp instead of ftp.... it's easier & more secure | 20:20 |
| xtgyal | what is scp? | 20:20 |
| dat0m | lamp -_- | 20:21 |
| xtgyal | I basically just want to be able to upload files to my home server from other computers is all | 20:21 |
| LjL | !scp | xtgyal | 20:21 |
| ubottu | xtgyal: scp is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/ | 20:21 |
| dat0m | xtgyal, or SFTP | 20:21 |
| flintwingel | xtgyal: part of the ssh familiy ssh=secure shell | 20:21 |
| wdonkey | MonkeyDust: thanks i've found a way, thanks again for helping me! | 20:21 |
| xtgyal | I'm not sure that would work, I would need to upload files from my university computer lab, they don't allow installations, I don't think that's in the installed programs, they have FileZilla though | 20:22 |
| flintwingel | xtgyal: if it's a linux server it may already be running, if not it's usually trivial to install. It's a standard part of pretty much every distro | 20:22 |
| LjL | xtgyal: what's the problem with doing what i outlined though? | 20:23 |
| xtgyal | I would need that particular application installed on whatever computer I wanted to access my homeserver from? | 20:23 |

| xtgyal | I don't see SCP listed? | 20:24 |
| flintwingel | xtgyal - ssh also includes SFTP | 20:25 |
| ubuntu_ | bry | 20:25 |
| xtgyal | is that the same as SCP? | 20:25 |
| ikonia | xtgyal: scp is part of the ssh package | 20:25 |
| xtgyal | oh ok | 20:25 |
| LjL | xtgyal: no, but both SCP and SFTP are more secure than FTP | 20:26 |
| flintwingel | xtgyal: not quite.... but close enough | 20:26 |

| borudev | Hello, how is everyone? I had a quick question troubleshooting my ubuntu 11.10 server installation. I installed the same OS on 2 different servers and I'm experiencing the same problem. What happens is I turn on the server, it's ok for few hours, and then when I try to SSH to it, it get a time out, when I plug in the keyboard, and type something then I can connect to it again. Seems that it's | 20:26 |
| borudev | going to some kind of sleep mode. Note, no desktop was installed just pure server OS. Anyone had this issue before? what could cause it? Thanks | 20:26 |
| ikonia | xtgyal: openssh-server will instal sshd which listens for transfers | 20:26 |
| ikonia | xtgyal: the client you need to install ssh which contains scp | 20:27 |
| ubluntu | borudev: sudo setterm -blank 0 | 20:27 |
| flintwingel | xtgyal: what distro? ubuntu/debian, if it's not install already apt-get install ssh should do it | 20:27 |
| xtgyal | the default FileZilla installation on Windows should be able to access the SCP server? | 20:27 |
| xtgyal | I'm on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS | 20:27 |
| borudev | unbluntu what will this do? | 20:27 |
| Viva | ola | 20:28 |
| LjL | xtgyal: probably not, but it will be able to access the SFTP server (which is in the same openssh-server package) | 20:29 |
| LjL | xtgyal: anyway, it's not like any of this is going to solve the permission issues :P | 20:29 |
| borudev | ubluntu: what will this do? | 20:29 |
| xtgyal | ai, so why am I installing it? | 20:30 |
| LjL | xtgyal: because security. the permission issues would be solved the way i outlined, i don't think there is another sensible way. unless you decide to make a symlink from /var/www/something to your home, and put the files there. | 20:31 |
| xtgyal | yes, I am reading https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/openssh-server.html does seem better | 20:31 |
| Viba | hello | 20:32 |
| xtgyal | would the symlink reduce any security? | 20:32 |
| xtgyal | how does that work? | 20:32 |
| flintwingel | xtgyal: it's a lot easier to get the right permissions... and it's safer to sign in as root. FTP sessions are clear text. vsftpd also put a layer of user mapping in the way. You should probably set to ownership or /var/www to something other than root, but NOT the same user and the webserver uses | 20:32 |
| LjL | xtgyal: not as far as i'm aware. however, you'd have to make a sub-directory inside /var/www, so later you can't access your site as http://hostname/ but you need http://hostname/subdirectory/, that may or may not be ok with you. | 20:33 |
| xtgyal | I thought I'm not supposed to sign in as root? | 20:33 |
| xtgyal | hm ok yeah my indexpage is at localhost/index.htm | 20:33 |
| xtgyal | fish don't bark... | 20:34 |
| flintwingel | xtgyal: rule of thumb... normally you wouldn't. Setup a new user on you server, set the ownership of /var/ww to that user then use sftp to sign in as that user | 20:34 |
| arooni-mobile | hey folks; lenovo t420 here with ubuntu 11.10; suspend works about 40-50% of the time. any idea on what i need to do to make resume more reliable? | 20:35 |
| === sony is now known as Guest98274 | ||
| === Timic_ is now known as Timic | ||
| ikonia | arooni-mobile: sort the video card compatability out is the common issue | 20:35 |
| LjL | xtgyal, what *i'd* personally do, though, is: make the ownership of /var/www and friends root:www-data, and make your user a member of www-data | 20:35 |
| xtgyal | hm ok yeah like a special webadmin account on the computer? will that reduce any security from having it owned by root though? | 20:35 |
| arooni-mobile | ikonia, i have the intel card | 20:35 |
| xtgyal | I' | 20:36 |
| LjL | xtgyal: if by "reduce the security" you mean "let you access the files at all", then yes, it will reduce the security ;) | 20:36 |
| xtgyal | I'd rather deviate from the defualt security settings as little as possible | 20:36 |
| flintwingel | xtgyal: no... justas long as it is NOT the same user as the webserver and is NOT world writeable | 20:36 |
| xtgyal | what do you mean by same user as the webserver? | 20:37 |
| xtgyal | there is currently only one user account on the computer | 20:37 |
| LjL | xtgyal: err, i think you'd be surprised. | 20:37 |
| LjL | xtgyal: "cat /etc/passwd" will show that the webserver most likely has its own user. | 20:37 |
| xtgyal | well user account that I've created | 20:37 |

| arooni-mobile | for suspend to work properly; do i need 1) same amount of swap as ram? i have 8gb of ram; but only 4gb of swap? 2) free space = ram working set? i regularly use 4-5gb of ram; but currently only have 3gb free on hard disk | 20:39 |
| LjL | arooni-mobile: you only need enough swap space, no need for other free space on the disk. | 20:40 |
| xtgyal | www-data looks like the Apache user | 20:40 |
| a-saint | ikonia having trouble with aircrack-ng error with what's in the pastebin | 20:40 |
| Kohinite | bazhang, it looks a lot like askubuntu.com, but that website was a bit different... Or maybe it got updated? | 20:40 |
| LjL | arooni-mobile: ideally it should be at least the same as your RAM, but if you're using little RAM, then it might work with less. | 20:40 |
| flintwingel | xtgyal: www-data is the onwer of the httpd process... the webserver. For the webserver to serve up pages it must have read permission on the files that make up the web pages | 20:40 |
| arooni-mobile | LjL, so i dont have enough free swap space? | 20:40 |
| shalowhal76 | i think im coming up on about $140. 00 real soon | 20:40 |

| ikonia | shalowhal76: what has this got do do with ubuntu ? | 20:41 |
| shalowhal76 | bunt is free | 20:41 |
| xtgyal | I still think creating a link to/from the home directory seems safer than messing with user settings | 20:41 |
| flintwingel | xtgyal: what you don't want is for the webserver to have write permission | 20:41 |
| ikonia | a-saint: it appears to be delling you the device is listening on a different channel than the AP | 20:41 |
| shalowhal76 | couldnt do it without bunt | 20:41 |

| flintwingel | xtgyal: symlink (ln -s) is just a way of redirecting a file operation somewhere else. Apache can be setup to ignore symlinks and it doesn't really get you around the file ownership/permission problem | 20:45 |

| kaddi | bobo37773: well it's a good start.. at least he'll be able to get the clean install.. we can always talk about hacking lubi later :) | 22:37 |
| ewokbot | i say stay with 11.04 if you are on it | 22:37 |
| MonkeyDust | kaddi http://lubi.sourceforge.net/index.html | 22:37 |
| Sach | ewokbot, thanks :) | 22:37 |
| ewokbot | i thought it was pretty nice in classic no effects fall back mode | 22:37 |
| rcmaehl | ah | 22:37 |
| === Knorre`BNC is now known as Knorre | ||
| kaddi | bobo37773, MonkeyDust, MoDDD thanks! | 22:37 |
| Sach | yes, i think so too... | 22:37 |
| MoDDD | kaddi good work! :) | 22:38 |
| ewokbot | i put pn the weather applet in the panel thing did you Sach | 22:38 |
| ewokbot | ? | 22:38 |
| Sach | ewokbot, absolutely! :) | 22:38 |
| ewokbot | i am in debian gnome right now for debian has the same sort of stuff as classic fallback | 22:38 |
| mrdesign | monkeydust: i'm select lampserver | 22:39 |
| Sach | the only thing i hate is libreoffice in comparison to Word...i still find bugs.. | 22:39 |
| ewokbot | or whatever i dont really know what the wm is- but i recognixze the tools from ununtu | 22:39 |
| === trolololoreader is now known as MJ94 | ||
| mrdesign | i click enter | 22:39 |
| bobo37773 | kaddi, Wait. Couldn't you just extract the iso and add an entry in grub pointed to the appropriate kernel / ramdisk? | 22:39 |
| mrdesign | but nothing else | 22:39 |
| ewokbot | hmm well i never used Micro soft long enough to like it | 22:39 |
| kaddi | bobo37773: what would that do? Would that launch the install? | 22:40 |
| mrdesign | i think that something wrong | 22:40 |
| koleoptero | can't anyone help me with some problems I have with irc and empathy? | 22:40 |
| kaddi | How would I make sure I don't partition over the appropriate kernel ramdisk? | 22:40 |
| Sach | yea, i'v been on ubuntu for 6 years now, but Word is the only thing i miss.. | 22:40 |
| acerimmer | koleoptero: I might be able to help | 22:40 |
| mrdesign | i want install lampserver | 22:40 |
| MonkeyDust | mrdesign select the components you need | 22:40 |
| qmr | .... LaTeX | 22:40 |
| kaddi | sach have you tried libreoffice? I think it has a very finished feel to it | 22:40 |
| mrdesign | i do this | 22:40 |
| bobo37773 | Seems like it would. No harm in trying if you are adding a seperate entry in grub. In theory it should work. | 22:40 |
| kaddi | personally i think it's much nicer than openoffice | 22:41 |
| kaddi | (also what qmr said ;p) | 22:41 |
| mrdesign | monkeydust i do this by pressing enter | 22:41 |
| Sach | kaddi, yes, i use it, although still find a few bugs..have you also come across any bugs? | 22:41 |
| koleoptero | acerimmer: thank god, I set it with freenode and my nick and it says authentication failed | 22:41 |
| kaddi | sach, nope I only use it rarely. I mostly use latex | 22:41 |
| kaddi | bobo37773: the thing is, once the PC is unbootable it stays unbootable.. :p | 22:41 |
| kaddi | so trial and error only works on a limited scale | 22:41 |
| bobo37773 | kaddi, Yeah, but if it was a seperate entry in grub then you can just pick the working one if it doesn't work | 22:42 |
| kaddi | bobo37773: well the idea would be to format over the existing ubuntu install with the new one. So if the whole thing stops working half way through, because I formatted part of the files needed by the CD I have lost both | 22:43 |
| kaddi | the working install and the installer | 22:43 |
| acerimmer | koleoptero: I used to get those too. upon logging into freenode, I would get "nick already in use or not recognized" or similar. Once I /msg nick "Acerimmer", it was fixed. that might not be EXACTLY the message but it's close... | 22:43 |
| kaddi | which is why I'm worried about where to install the new version of ubuntu to | 22:43 |
| koleoptero | acerimmer: so it's an empathy quirk? because I was able to connect with an unregistered nickname (koleop2) but then it wouldn't join any channels \o.O/ | 22:44 |
| Sach | is it possible to do a FRESH install of 11.04 without a disk; only internet? | 22:44 |
| koleoptero | so see I hit two things at once lol | 22:45 |
| kaddi | bobo37773: it seems what you suggested is an official way to install ubuntu though: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/NetbootInstallFromInternet | 22:45 |
| kaddi | it doesn't answer my worries baout formatting what shouldn't be formatted unfortunately | 22:45 |
| MoDDD | kaddi: you have find the solution online? | 22:46 |
| bobo37773 | kaddi, If the custom kernel loads and you get to the ubuntu installer then what would be the difference? | 22:46 |
| bobo37773 | kaddi, It would be the same as a livecd wouldn't it? | 22:46 |
| kaddi | bobo37773: well i guess my question is when I get to the ubuntu installer, does it load EVERYTHING it needs into RAM or does it rely on the files remaining available throughout the install | 22:47 |
| === Amadis_Wiki is now known as Guest31090 | ||
| kaddi | because if it loads everything into RAM, then I'm fretting over nothing | 22:47 |
| Sach | is it possible to do a fresh (formatted) install of 11.04 from an ISO image on my external harddrive? | 22:47 |
| bobo37773 | kaddi, Oh. It may need to mount partitions to run itself. I didn't think of that. | 22:47 |
| kaddi | sach check the link i just posted, it may anwser your wuestion | 22:48 |
| kaddi | question even | 22:48 |
| Sach | kadi, thanks -- you're quick! | 22:48 |
| bobo37773 | kaddi, Maybe a custom fstab would help (or maybe look at the one in the extracted livecd)... | 22:49 |

| svetlanak | Hi! I have a network problem that i hope you guys can i help me with. I'm using a laptop computer with wireless connection. When i close my computer, it goes into sleep(as it should do ofc). BUT, when i open it, i cant connect to my router again, i have to restart my computer and my router after this, to make it work again. This doesnt happend to my other computers. So, can anyone help me? :) | 22:53 |
| svetlanak | I use 10.04 btw | 22:53 |
| acerimmer | koleoptero: sorry I booted myself. | 22:53 |
| OerHeks | Sach PAE is only acailable on 32 bit cpu's | 22:54 |
| koleoptero | acerimmer: no worries, I'm slowly resigning myself to using irssi | 22:54 |
| Sach | OerHeks, PAE? | 22:54 |
| acerimmer | koleoptero: option - chatzilla plugin to firefox. very sweet imho | 22:54 |
| bobo37773 | kaddi, I think you will need to create an additional partition for this to work with the contents of the iso. Better go with fat32 | 22:54 |
| koleoptero | acerimmer: nah, I just thought to set up empathy since it's already running all the time for google talk | 22:55 |
| OerHeks | !pae | 22:55 |
| ubottu | To use more than ~3.2GB RAM on a 32bit system you can install the PAE-enabled kernel. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE for more info | 22:55 |

| kaddi | i'm kinda reluctant to run VB as root | 22:55 |
| koleoptero | I can use irssi just fine | 22:55 |
| hovorka | Is there any reason why after booting Ubuntu 11.10, you would be thrown into a fullscreen root terminal? | 22:55 |
| acerimmer | hovorka: Root or Boot? | 22:56 |
| Sach | under what circumstances would one install the (unrecommended) 64-bit 11.04? | 22:56 |
| hovorka | acerimmer: It gives me a prompt that says "root@ubuntu:/#". | 22:57 |
| aBound | Sach, I'd stick with 10.04 LTS more or less. | 22:57 |
| OerHeks | Sach, 64 bit runs fine, next version 12.04LTS will recommended 64 bit. | 22:57 |
| acerimmer | hovorka: yeah, that's root. Not an issue i'm familiar with, sorry. | 22:57 |
| Sach | oerheks, so is 32 bit fine for 11.04? | 22:58 |
| hovorka | acerimmer: Thanks anyways. | 22:58 |
| OerHeks | Sach 32 bit is proven to be stable and give no worrys. 64 is next. | 22:59 |

| aBound | Mitlin, On the top right go to System Settings >> Screen >> From there you can change brightness. | 23:11 |
| dewar | open power management | 23:11 |
| seangibbz | kaddi: you could remaking the VMS, but once they're made (don't bother actually installing anything on them) replace the virtual hard disk of the new VM with the one from the old VM. | 23:11 |
| Mitlin | @ dewar theres no option to change the brightness their either | 23:12 |
| kaddi | seangibbz: that won't work due to the intenral identifiers | 23:12 |
| seangibbz | ah | 23:12 |
| dewar | i found it on my laptop | 23:12 |

| seangibbz | kaddi: you could still try. Say, for example, you have a VM with a virtual hard disk "vm1.vhd". You could just back that up, then delete it from the folder that it was originally stored in. Then make a new VM with a new virtual hard disk also titled "vm1.vhd", then exit the program, put back the old vhd, overriding the new one, and restart the program. | 23:14 |
| hatch | so can't do custom application launchers in 11.10? | 23:14 |
| seangibbz | not sure if it'l work, but it's work a shot | 23:14 |

| Juv1228 | it also has a 500gb hdd i would like to use for /home | 23:49 |
| aBound | Juv1228, You could use an alternate Ubuntu ISO which allows you to customize it. In terms of SSD you won't have any performance problems. | 23:49 |
| aBound | As I use an 80GB SSD. | 23:49 |
| pp7_ | 32gb here :P | 23:49 |
| student | 2tb here | 23:49 |
| Juv1228 | in terms of swap, do i really need it if I have 16gb of ram? | 23:49 |
| pp7_ | student: SSD? | 23:50 |
| aBound | Juv1228, lol I have 16GB too. | 23:50 |
| Juv1228 | will not having any at all have any negative effects? | 23:50 |
| LjL | Juv1228: with 16GB, realistically, no, but the thing is also that swap space is needed to hibernate, so if you want to do that.... | 23:50 |
| student | no hard drive | 23:50 |
| pp7_ | student: what u using then? | 23:50 |
| aBound | Juv1228, Realistically 16GB of RAM is overkill unless you're doing some high-end work. | 23:50 |
| pp7_ | oh u meant" "no, hard drive" ? | 23:51 |
| Juv1228 | aBound, i run multiple vm's on a daily basis | 23:51 |
| student | yeah thats what i meant] | 23:51 |
| aBound | Juv1228, I doubt you'd have any issues. | 23:51 |
| Juv1228 | so the ram is needed | 23:51 |
| aBound | As I have 16GB of RAM too. | 23:51 |
| === drako is now known as drako689 | ||
| drako689 | hi | 23:51 |
| drako689 | please | 23:51 |
| pp7_ | aBound: do your VM's run super fast? | 23:52 |
| pp7_ | i meant Juv1228 | 23:52 |
| aBound | pp7_, I tried a few but they felt a bit sluggish I assume I need some performance tweaking. :P | 23:52 |
| aBound | Ahh... lol | 23:52 |
| drako689 | i tryng to install php5-xsl in ubuntu | 23:52 |
| drako689 | and appears that msg | 23:52 |
| drako689 | http://pastebin.com/wFaERctc | 23:52 |
| pp7_ | aBound: with SSD? | 23:52 |
| pp7_ | or using ramdisk? | 23:53 |
| drako689 | i can update? or can i mess my php configs? | 23:53 |
| aBound | pp7_, Yeah, it's probably due to not giving the VM enough RAM. | 23:53 |
| aBound | :P | 23:53 |
| pp7_ | hah | 23:53 |
| aBound | I think last time I gave Debian a gig of RAM. | 23:53 |
| aBound | lol | 23:53 |
| Juv1228 | on my current build, i only have 4gb ram total | 23:54 |
| Juv1228 | so it presents some issues when running more than one vm | 23:54 |
| aBound | Juv1228, Awesome multiple VIMs. By default I noticed the Ubuntu installation tends to take care of everything and just installs. | 23:54 |
| philip__ | Am i on the right channel for hardware issues assistance? | 23:54 |
| student | how can i restore the factory settings to my laptop | 23:54 |
| pp7_ | anyone here use nvidia cuda? | 23:54 |
| aBound | Programs load up quickly with an SSD though hehe. | 23:55 |
| aBound | nVidia cuda not that I know of. | 23:55 |
| Juv1228 | also, how does ubuntu handle intel hd graphics 3000? | 23:56 |
| Juv1228 | i went with no gpu for this build | 23:56 |

| roadfish | How do I get internet sharing between my two Ubuntu PCs? They are connected with an ethernet cable and I already have SSH setup. But "ping 140.186.70.148" fails (using gnu.org's IP address as example). | 23:58 |
| aBound | Juv1228, I can't say how well it handles Intel HD Graphics 3000 as I use an nVidia card. | 23:58 |
| aBound | Juv1228, Lemme guess you use a System76 machine? | 23:58 |
