mirko1happyface: they are not in a seperate theme, you have to copy the  whole current icon theme to your $HOME/.icons directory, identify the icons used, and replace them with what you want to have.00:06

RoastedRandom question - is wine a memory hog?00:23
RoastedI'm running teamviewer and this rig is eating up 1.5 GB. I got to wondering if teamviewer (which uses wine) is eating it all up00:23
modelo_where are you from?00:23
Zoarukimodelo_: it's just i thought you were going to start talking in spanish as hola means hello :p00:23
modelo_zoaruki you are woman'00:24
Zoarukidlentz: it's just i can't get connected to the network00:24
Zoarukidlentz: it's kinda hard (and long) to explain here, and that's why I created a thread in the forums00:25
dlentzokay, so you have the driver installed and lspci/lshw shows ndiswrapper as the wireless driver?00:25
mirko1Roasted: mabe teamviewer, maybe wine, impossible to tell withoug more info. if it's wine, it's a bug and you should report it. btw. teamviewer has AFAIK also a linux version00:25
dlentzZoaruki, well, linky linky00:25

mirko1Roasted: ah, ok, didn't realized that, I suggest you report to the wine folks.00:27
modelo_i'm sorry, see you to morrow00:27
RoastedHm, this makes no sense. System monitor says this rig is only eating 275 MB of RAM, yet free -m in terminal says Mem:          2001        761       1240 for total/used/free00:27

=== revolts is now known as diegovieiraeti
dlentzi was referring to the model number (like bcm4313)00:31
mirko1Roasted: free shows the memory usage including internal buffers and caches. look at the -/+ buffers/cache:  line00:31
Roastedmirko1, oh... http://i.imgur.com/8Mvbw.png00:33
Roastedmirko1, so the 288 underneath the 783 is what I need to look at?00:33
SeveasRoasted, yeah00:33
Roastedoh, well imagine that.00:33
Roastedthanks Seveas and mirko1 !00:33
Seveas"Mem" = in used by programs and the filesystem cache00:33
Seveas"+/- buffers" = just programs00:34
Roastedso system monitor only reports buffers/cache?00:34
Zoaruki_my connection reseted o.o00:35
=== Zoaruki_ is now known as Zoaruki
SeveasRoasted, it reports onlt values from that line (which means everything except buffers/cache)00:35
dlentzZoaruki, i was aasking for model number of wireless chipset (lspci should show it)00:36
=== C_K_ is now known as C_K
RoastedSeveas, I'm not seeing how I have identical numbers in system monitors and buffers/cache (free -m) if system monitor shows everything EXCEPT buffers/cache00:37
RoastedSeveas, then again I never knew there was a difference. I always just assumed system monitor showed everything.00:37
SeveasRoasted, the line says +/- buffers/cache. It means "all memory used not in buffers/cache"00:38
Seveasyes, this should be clearer :)00:38
SeveasRoasted, drop the filesystem caches (this is safe) to confitm00:38
Seveasecho 2 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches00:38

Scott_ZI need to shrink my windows in order to install ubuntu. I remember about parted from a long time ago. is there a windows version to do this? please treat me as a newbie.00:58
SBC33NO Scott. Boot from an Ubuntu LiveCD. The version of Gparted that runs during install can do that for you.00:59
Scott_Zsbc33, i have tried that but there does not seem to be a provision to shrink my windows partition. I do not have a backup so I am really scared about doing this.01:00
RoastedScott_Z, gparted is as good as you can get with partitioning utilities. I'd easily trust it with my life over anything that Windows has to offer.01:00
RoastedScott_Z, then, back your stuff up. Everybody should have their data backed up, regardless.01:00
RoastedScott_Z, only takes 1 hard drive to tank to completely ruin your day/week01:00
mirko1Roasted: yes, the system monitor shows the actual memory usage of the programs, just like free's -/+ buffer ... line. the buffers and the cache are dynamically increased/decreased by the kernel and they basically consume all free RAM available, so they are not a meaningful value to measure the memory consumption of the programs01:00
SBC33In Gparted, you have to click on your Windows partition, then click the "Change" button.01:01
Scott_Zi am booted up on my live cd right now. can I do it from here?01:01
RoastedScott_Z, yes, open gparted. its in the live cd.01:01
Scott_ZI know. i know.01:01
gonyereidk, i have an ancient vs of parition magic that works like a charm :)01:01
SBC33Yes. Restart it and go far enough into the install procedire that Gparted comes up.01:01
gonyereits on floppies :p01:01
Scott_Zfound gparted. will give it a try. thanks for all the help01:02
Scott_ZI have about 100gig free. any recommendation on sizes for swap drives and such. I figured about 50 gig total.01:04
mirko1Scott_Z: depends on how you plan to use the system, just an extremely rough guideline: 10-30 GB for /, 0.5 - 1 times the size of your RAM (the more RAM, the less swap), all the rest for /home01:06
Scott_Zsounds like a good place to start. thanks01:07

SBC33Red, a suggestion, when you have some time - Google the laptop's model number and ubuntu, see if you get any suggestions.01:25
Red_Xthanks01:25
mirko1 codeshah: probably xargs or process substitution, ie.:  "command1 | xargs command2" or "command2 $(command1)"01:25

PsychoX75Ome: Filezilla has a server?!? I thought only the in windows it has a server. I couldn't find any server-options under it's settings.03:20
escottstbasil, make sure you are connecting directly vga-vga and not through some kind of adapter, otherwise you have to manually create your modeline03:20

=== ZzBomb is now known as ZzTribble
escottstbasil, you are going to have to look some of this up on your own. i can only tell you what is wrong, you will have to experiment to get the solution. when you are searching search for modelines and modeline generators. ignore stuff related to the kernel boot parameters (which is a new modeline issue but not your modeline issue)03:26

hydrox24collinjsimpson: what file do you need to mount? If you can use the mount command then just add the "-o loop" option to it.04:40
ooiioooif my machine can handle both, which do I pick? ubuntu's download page has a "recommended" behind 32-bit. does this apply to 64-bit machines aswell?04:41
bazhangooiiooo, 6404:41
collinjsimpsonhydrox24, I'm mounting a file as a filesystem with 'bindfs' to be able to set quotas for users in shared directories.04:41
jonnyXer0which buntu are you running flip04:41
ooiioookk, thanks04:41
collinjsimpsonhydrox24, A normal 'mount' doesn't let me share directories.04:42
jonnyXer0he might have a proxy add04:42

flipsideYeah04:43
flipside0404:43
jonnyXer0kk let me remember ...04:43
jonnyXer0i only ran it for a week or so lol04:43
jonnyXer0does your apt-get still work?04:44
jonnyXer0or your software center?04:45
flipsidejonnyXer0 I just tried it and a bunch of stuff when by. I had to put in my pw though.04:45
flipsidejonnyXer0 yes they seem to work.04:45
jonnyXer0hmm that is odd04:46
jonnyXer0a proxy should affect your apt-get as well04:46
jonnyXer0but leme dbl check that04:46
flipsidemy name seems weird though. It says pwnt@Babylon: my name is not pwnt04:47

flipsidejonnyXer0 can I fix it?04:47
jonnyXer0yep04:47
flipsidenice to hear.04:48
jonnyXer0how old are your kids?04:48
flipside8 and 1404:48
bazhangjonnyXer0, thats not on topic, nor germane04:48
jonnyXer0the one thing alot of people dont consider is the human factor04:48
flipsidethey know a lot more about computers then I do.04:48
jonnyXer0helps me determine if his problem is from within or without04:49
jonnyXer0allrighty04:49
flipsidejonnyXer0 they are not angles to be honest. The stuff showing up on my computer is something they would think is funny.04:49
jonnyXer0do you have seperate logins?04:50
flipsidejonnyXer0 yes but they know my login too04:50
jonnyXer0well i'll give you an option here, it seems you're probably not too savvy04:51
jonnyXer0so we can go round this a bit and take a few hours04:51
jonnyXer0or you could just restore the system with a install CD in < an hour04:51
tempestflipside just beat your kids ass untill they fix your computer. No way this just happened! Go get em now!04:52
bazhangtempest, watch the language and stay on topic.04:52
jonnyXer0i'm willing to help you with either04:52
tempestSry all mighty bazhang. Spite me not with your glory and power!04:52
sacarlsoncollinjsimpson: in this tutorial on edquota I don't see them using fuse in fstab,  did you read anything like this http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-set-up-journaled-quota-on-debian-lenny04:53
jonnyXer0it helps me to not want to throw my problematic laptop against the wall04:53
jonnyXer0hopefully a 64 bit install will help with its problematic chipset04:53
jonnyXer0flip u still around?04:54
SubstreamAIis there a keyboard short cut to restart the X server: alt - sys req - k04:54
collinjsimpsonsacarlson, I need shared directories, not individual / group quotas. I'm using bindfs to provide sharing features without creating groups for each set of users.04:54
flipsidejonnyXer0 jonney thx for trying to help me out here. Not going to "beat my kids" but I am going to have a little talk with them and find out if they did something.04:54
SubstreamAII read that replaces ctr - alt - backspace04:54
geek009164 bit install will only work on 64 bit arch., not with chipset issues04:54
jonnyXer0it is04:54
jonnyXer0its the cpu/gpu amd chip04:54
SubstreamAIbut when I tried it, all it did was log me out04:54
jonnyXer0i've read that 32 gets kinda sluggy on em04:54
jonnyXer0flip04:55
flipsideyeah04:55
geek0091why not install the right kernal for the right processor?04:55
jonnyXer0go into the uinty search and type proxy04:55
collinjsimpsonsacarlson, 'bindfs' allows me to explicitly define permissions for all users on a filesystem. Also, all users in a bindfs filesystem have the same permissions. It's much more stable than 'quota tools' for what I need.04:55
jonnyXer0geek i'm still a bit of a neophyte for that ;p04:55
mezzalunamight depend on what kind of 64bit system. 32 bit works fine on an athlon6404:56
geek0091lmao, all good. I just cant stand seeing a 32-bit on a 64 optimized system, makes no d--- sense.04:56
sacarlsoncollinjsimpson: so maybe your looking at something like this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=146047204:56
jonnyXer0yeah i'm droppin 64 on it ;p04:56
flipsidejonnyXer0 OK think I found a proxy thing in FF04:56

mobius999greetings04:57
mobius999there is a thing which is worrying me :)04:57
mobius999it appears there is a program called "zeitgeist" running on my linux computer :)04:57
mobius999and apparently it is on all new linux machines04:58
jonnyXer0or just click no proxy04:58
collinjsimpsonsacarlson, That tutorial is for mounting directories as filesystems. I have no issue doing that. My issue is that 'bindfs' refuses to mount a *file* as a filesystem.04:58
mobius999is it true that zeitgeist logs EVERY file, link, and action opened on the host machine?04:58
jonnyXer0geek its a toshiba c655d04:58
mobius999surely canonical would not bundle such a thing on my computer04:58
mobius999...and not make it REAL clear04:59
jonnyXer0my netbook tosh runs bt5  and my big 17" tosh runs 10.404:59
jonnyXer0this is the first thing thats kicked my butt04:59
mobius999can someone explain how to view the zeitgeist logs?04:59
mezzalunamobius999: you could try killing it?04:59
flipsidejonnyXer0 looks like some code or something. cat "127.0.0.1 http://tinyurl.com/6jqsf35" >> /etc/hosts05:00

sacarlsoncollinjsimpson: did you read this part of that article NOTE: Because of a BUG in mountall  this method doesn't work, in Ubuntu 9.10 or higher (including Natty  11.04 Alpha-1), if the shared directory is not on the root (/)  partition. For a workaround see Method 2 - Upstart below.05:00

collinjsimpsonsacarlson, However, I doubt I'll still be able to mount a file as a filesystem. I haven't had problems with mounting filesystems which are not in the root dir.05:02

jonnyXer0lock your account down05:06
collinjsimpsonsacarlson, Do you know if it's feasible to mount a filesystem in another filesystem? I might be able to mount a *file* as a filesystem using default 'mount', then mount that new filesystem with 'bindfs' to enable quotas?05:06

flipsideflipside yeah normally my kids help me with things like this. Guess Ill have to do a little reading. They are using another linux in my linux in some funny way. Do a lot of things at hackthissite.com (or org). Might have to watch them a little more.05:08
jonnyXer0had to write something like that for my router05:08
sacarlsoncollinjsimpson: I guess that's how it normally has to be done to mount a file it would have to come from another files system05:08
geek0091sorry, was a brain fart with if type networking, been a while05:08
sacarlsoncollinjsimpson: that's how wubi and virtualbox works05:09
collinjsimpsonsacarlson, The issue would be that I'm mounting the filesystem twice to itself. Once for quotas, again for permissions.05:09
jonnyXer0flip all kids will experiment just gotta keep good tabs and know they're staying within their bounds05:09
jonnyXer0and thats no easy task05:10
Cache_MoneyGROUP05:10
sacarlsoncollinjsimpson: oh I'm not sure about that then,  it would not warn you when it was close it would just fail with an error05:10
mobius999I did wish to add though,  that anything that does the things described here  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeitgeist_%28framework%2905:10

sta7icHello, Why when I download new kernel, everything is turned on? Is there a way to get a starting base from what the disto detected?05:11
mezzalunasta7ic: yes, compile your own custom kernel05:12
tempestYo dad your dumb as sand. What you get for the WoW thing. Chew on that fatty.05:12
flipsideone sec...05:12
blazer1980s05:12
sta7icmezzaluna: i am, but everything is turned on, I just want a starting point that the distro detected, for example, recognizes i have amd cpu, so intel isnt selected as well05:13
sacarlsoncollinjsimpson: I guess that's what the method 2 is doing in the tutorial that they say works05:13
mezzalunasta7ic: normally before the compile it asks which drivers you want included05:14
jonnyXer0WoW?05:14
sta7icmezzaluna: your missing the point, im not a noob.05:14
collinjsimpsonsacarlson, Method 2 mounts the filesystem once with 'bindfs'. They don't mount it twice.05:15
sta7ici want to import the kernel settings .config that the distro detects, so i dont have to start at the beginning turning everything off when i make menuconfig05:15
sacarlsonsta7ic: yes there is a way to get the configs of you present ubuntu build and put those same configs into your new build05:15
sacarlsoncollinjsimpson: it's first mounted in fstab05:16
sta7icsacarlson: you'd think it would be default, sacalson, how accurate are they and where are they located in ubuntu05:16
collinjsimpsonsacarlson, Method 2 doesn't modify 'fstab' at all. Method 1 is the one that modifies 'fstab'.05:16

SeveasChristW, missing headers usuallt means you need a -dev package, like netpbm-dev in your case09:06

Seveashm09:06
ChristWSeveas: I already have those. Well, I tried both -9 and -10.09:06
Seveascan you point me to the sources you're trying to build?09:07
ChristWSeveas: http://www.schaik.com/netpbm/rubber/09:08
ChristWAt the bottom of the page.09:08
Seveas"As of today, the source code for pamrubber is part of the "Advanced" tree of the netpbm package on SourceForge. It will take couple of months before it gets pushed into the "Stable" release."09:08
Seveasso probably you'll need to build netpdm from source too09:09
ChristW'A couple of months' !== 'over a year', but I know about release scheduling...09:09
Seveasyeah, also that netpbm isn't the netpbm in ubuntu09:10

fernando_I want to check the file system of my ubuntu I had to force shut down of the computer09:11
fernando_should I do e2fsck from the boot terminal09:11
ChristWHum, interesting… so no (direct) way to build this, then...09:12
SeveasChristW, I think your best bet is to do an svn checkout of the netpbm source tree and build it locally. Do you know how to do that?09:12
sta7ici have core i7, would it be appropriate to select default x86_64 in the 3.x kernel or core 2? the help doesnt specify09:12
ChristWIf I can sing the svn root, I think I can (svn co http:// … ., etc)09:12
Seveassvn checkout http://netpbm.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/netpbm/advanced netpbm09:12
st1fernando_:  why? fsck can schedule to check during next reboot09:13
dj_for sudo apt-get update it could not fetch some files09:13

Seveasdj_, that means that the lkjoel ppa doesn't support oneiric09:14
fernando_it says the file system is mounted09:14
dj_what should i do now09:14
Seveasalso, that GPG error sounds very suspicious, better switch to a different mirror09:14

Seveasremove that ppa from your /etc/apt/sources.list.d09:15

no-name-ok09:17
* no-name- cries :P09:17
Seveasno-name-, so the combination {ubuntu, 64bit, gens} won't work. You could try reinstalling ubuntu on 32 bit, or installing 64 bit fedora. Their multiarch support is a bit more mature (though they're doing it wrong imho)09:20
no-name-ahh09:21

Xeneth_remoteCTRL: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothInputDevices11:13
remoteCTRLg0th: for example sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop11:13
g0thI already installed that one11:13
g0thit is broken11:13
g0thoriginally I used kubuntu11:14
remoteCTRLg0th: xfce4?11:14
remoteCTRLgnome?11:14
g0thI have gnome-desktop11:14
g0thI said unity11:14
remoteCTRLXeneth_: thanks, i will have a lokk at it11:14
remoteCTRLg0th: sounds like xface is the only alternative then?11:14
g0th?11:15
g0thxface?11:15
remoteCTRLxfce411:15
g0thI don't understand11:15
g0thalternative?11:15
g0thmy question is: how do I add additional desktops in unity11:16
remoteCTRLXeneth_: do you think i should give a "manual" installation a shot instead of the "automagic" onboard means?11:16
remoteCTRLg0th: OH, i see11:16
remoteCTRL:D11:16
ryannathanshmm... I created an iSCSI target. I created a ZFS mounted at /tank that I want to use for iSCSI. How does one allocate this for use? I only seem to be able to allocate image files. I want to use the entire /tank drive (4TB)11:16
g0thI tried using ccsm11:16
g0thbut no changes there had any effect11:17
curiousxPrabz: sudo software-properties-gtk   and go to "other softwares" locate  the line correspond with "wine" and "mozilla"11:17
g0thmy horizontal virtual size is 811:17
Xeneth_remoteCTRL: Not sure.  I did a quick search for "input service" and that's what came up.  It looks to be mainly focused on older OS's, but may give an Idea as to what to try/look for.11:17
g0thbut I have only 6 desktops11:17
curiousxand remove them11:17
remoteCTRLg0th: i was just about to suggest exactly that, i dont know of any other way...11:17
g0thwhere is it stored in gconf?11:18
g0thmaybe I need to change it manually11:18
remoteCTRLXeneth_: hmmm...11:18
remoteCTRLg0th: soory but i have currently no gnome installed i couldnt tell...11:19
remoteCTRLwas there not a search option in the gconf editor?11:19
Prabzcuriousx: done.11:19
remoteCTRLlook for virtual desktop11:20
curiousxPrabz: sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade11:20
Prabzg0th: In ccsm go to general settings, desktops. make vertical size as 1 and horizontal as 8, since you so desire.11:20
ryannathanshmm... I created an iSCSI target. I created a ZFS mounted at /tank that I want to use for iSCSI. How does one allocate this for use? I only seem to be able to allocate image files. I want to use the entire /tank drive (4TB)11:20
g0thPrabz: it doesn't change anything11:20
Prabzcuriousx: updating11:21
curiousxits everything ok?11:21
g0thPrabz: .gconf/apps/compizconfig-1/profiles/unity/general/screen0/options/%gconf.xml <- this file still has 6 desktops everywhere, i changed them to 811:21
g0thhow do I make "unity" apply this?11:21
Prabzcuriousx: Its still running. I'm behind a proxy so it takes longer11:22
remoteCTRLg0th: from your description this sounds like you should file  a bugreport ..?11:22
Prabzg0th: I'm not sure how. But I'm sure unity uses dconf rather than gconf11:23
sivapvarmahow to open local services  window in blueman in ubuntu 11.1011:24
sivapvarmaI ahve installed version 1.2211:24
g0thI don't know what dconf/gconf is and who uses what11:24
g0thdconf is not really installed11:24
sivapvarmaI know a way that works with gnome 2 indicators11:25
remoteCTRLPrabz: g0th the dconf question is answered here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/91403/when-to-use-gconf-vs-dconf11:25
g0ththx11:26
remoteCTRLg0th: says there "As a rule of thumb, check dconf first and if what you're looking for isn't there, try gconf." so Prabz is right! dconf-editor it is!11:27
g0thbut in my case dconf is not even installed11:27
ryannathanshmm... I created an iSCSI target. I created a ZFS mounted at /tank that I want to use for iSCSI. How does one allocate this for use? I only seem to be able to allocate image files. I want to use the entire /tank drive (4TB)11:27
g0thso nothing uses dconf11:27
Dr_willisHmm. I thought the dconf editor was not installed by default but things in 11.10+ uses dconf11:27
Prabzcuriousx: now update works. But somehow I do need those repositories that were deleted..11:27
curiousxso re install it11:28
Prabzg0th: it isn't really a choice presented to the application that it will revert to gconf in absence of dconf.. Dconf-editor isn't installed by default. try installing11:28
remoteCTRLg0th: it says there: everything that comes from GNOME - uses dconf (if anything). Almost everything else that is available uses gconf," so that implies that also unity uses dconf11:29
angswhat does "export a pin" mean?11:29
curiousxwine: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine ; sudo apt-get update...11:29
remoteCTRLor the other way arround -.-11:29
g0thyeah but I'm telling you I don't have dconf installed11:29
g0thso nothing uses dconf in my case11:29
curiousxand what ever PPA mozilla you want11:30
Prabzg0th: try11:30
g0thouff11:30
g0thok11:30
angsj c++11:30
g0thbut can you promise me that it won't mess up my system?11:30
remoteCTRLg0th: install it and give it a shot, as it is already broken, what can you do, double break it...?11:30
g0thbecause there are two competing systems?11:30
g0thkde is broken11:30
hank3three3chatanybody know how to get a wacom table working on 11.10? plugged it in, but its not working11:30
g0thgnome-desktop is not11:30
ryannathansDo I NEED to use a logical volume for iSCSI?11:31
g0thI just don't know how to change the number of desktops11:31
g0thhow do I do that with dconf?11:31
curiousxfor example:  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable ; sudo apt-get update...11:31
Prabzcuriousx: thing is I did just add mozilla package and it shot up the error11:31
remoteCTRLg0th: yes you do but it isnt working as far as i understood you?11:31
Dr_willisg0th,  depends on if you are using unity, gnome-shell, or fallback.11:31
remoteCTRLDr_willis: unity it is for him11:31
curiousxas you like if you dont want to add mozilla's PPA so: http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/f/firefox-trunk/11:32
remoteCTRLg0th: you can of course always try and reinstall KDE11:32
g0thI already tried that11:32
g0thit is a bug in the update system probably11:32
g0thI tried for several days11:32
remoteCTRLdid you only remove it or did you PURGE it?11:33
g0thin the end someone suggested that I just try gnome-desktop11:33
g0ththat worked11:33
curiousxthere is the night version. firefox 14: im runing right now: http://i.imgur.com/zYGBD.png  http://i.imgur.com/KhVcU.png11:33
g0thit is still here11:33
g0thI just don't login with it11:33
remoteCTRLg0th: days? you'd have reinstalled it in half an hour...? as a last resort?11:33
g0thDr_willis: unity11:33
Dr_willisccsm tool - general tab. should have a setting for unity i belive is how i normally change it.11:33
g0thremoteCTRL: I tried for days to get my kde desktop working11:33
remoteCTRLDr_willis: he did that, only it isnt taking affect11:34
Prabzcuriousx: It gives up a hash sum mismatch error11:34
g0thremoteCTRL: reinstall didn't work11:34
remoteCTRLg0th: once again, did you REMOVE it or did you PURGE it?11:34
g0thremove what?11:34
g0thI didn't remove kde-desktop11:34
daviddoriaI want to make a shortcut key that shuts down the computer. is that possible?11:34
curiousxpaste it11:34
Prabzcuriousx: W: Failed to fetch bzip2:/var/lib/apt/lists/partial/ppa.launchpad.net_ubuntu-wine_ppa_ubuntu_dists_oneiric_main_source_Sources  Hash Sum mismatch11:34
remoteCTRLg0th: the difference being that in the first case you keep the config files, which most probably brings you back to sqaure one11:34
g0thah you mean when reinstalling11:35
Prabzdaviddoria: sure, but you'll need to enter your password everytime11:35
g0thyeah I purged and reinstalled etc11:35
g0thstill broken11:35
g0thI tried for days11:35
remoteCTRLg0th: so do that for a try. just purge it off the system and reinstall it. in my experience it tends to work again then11:35
g0thit is fubar11:35
Prabzjust create a .desktop file and point it to "gksu shutdown -h 0"11:35
g0thremoteCTRL: I just told you11:35
daviddoriaPrabz, Hm that's annoying. The whole reason I want this is because I have a computer that doesn't always have a monitor, so I just want to press a key and turn it off without any interaction11:35
g0thremoteCTRL: I will not walk that path again and waste another week11:35
remoteCTRLso why dont you give a fresh install a shot? it appears that your system is messed up on several fronts?11:35
angswhat does this command do " echo 38 > /sys/class/gpio/export  "?11:36
g0thyeah thats the best11:36
g0thbut I don't have time11:36
g0thand gnome works very well11:36
g0thI just want to change the number of desktops11:36
g0thfrom 6 to 8 or 1011:36
curiousxmmm... remove it from: software-properties-gtk11:36
jribdaviddoria: why don't you use the powerbutton for that?11:36
remoteCTRLangs: it writes the number 38 to the file /sys/class/gpio/export11:36
daviddoriajrib, it doesn't seem to do anything when I press the power button11:36
Prabzdaviddoria: reason is only a process in superuser mode can give shutdown command11:37
curiousxidk whats happening =(11:37
remoteCTRLg0th: dude, installing takes 20 minutes, custoizing another 2 that saves days in your case?11:37
g0thhow do I reload unity/compiz?11:37
Xeneth_angs: "echo 38" prints echo on the screen  ">" sends it to a file  "/sys/class/gpio/export" is the file it's sent to11:37
jribdaviddoria: does the computer run X?+11:37
Dr_willisand in 11.10+ i belive .gconf/apps/compizconfig-1 has changed.  i saw it mentioned at the webupd8 blog site. Also if you are using Unity2d its differnt11:37
daviddoriajrib,  yea it's a normal kde environment11:37
Xeneth_angs: err prints "38"11:37
g0thremoteCTRL: to get to the point where I am now it took me around 5 months11:37
jribdaviddoria: you should modify /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh (I think)11:37
Prabzcuriousx: could it be due to the fact I'm behind a proxy?11:37
daviddoriaok i'll look at that, thanks11:37
g0thremoteCTRL: so fresh install would work in 1-2 days I guess, but then everything needs to be setup again11:38
angsXeneth_: what does "export a pin" means?11:38
g0thremoteCTRL: also I would need to carefully create backups of all needed stuff first11:38
jribdaviddoria: without X running, I think it will initiate a shutdown (see last line), but if X is running it prompts the user (see previous lines)11:38
remoteCTRLg0th: 1-2 days??? are you doing a netinstall via gsm??11:38
g0thremoteCTRL: the main issue is that my home directory is encrypted11:38
g0thif I could "unencrypt it"11:38
remoteCTRLg0th: no issue at all11:38
g0thI could just reinstall the system and mount my original home11:38
Prabzg0th: Why do you need a backup. Don't you have your home directory on a separate partition?11:39
g0thyeah but it is encrypted11:39
remoteCTRLg0th: since your gnome desktop does work just append an external hard disk, copy all of your home dir, reinstall, copy back11:39
daviddoriajrib, oh cool, so I could just move that last line to the top if i always want it to just shutdown. will i have the "you're not root" problem?11:39
g0ththat's 2 TB11:39
Xeneth_angs: That one I am not sure11:39
curiousxidk11:39
g0th"just ..."11:40
remoteCTRLg0th: if you were clever enuff to partition your system to have an own home partition you can of course also do that11:40
angsXeneth_, remoteCTRL: thank you11:40
g0thcan I "uncencrypt" my home?11:40
g0thit is only causing me problems11:40
jribdaviddoria: you can probably just move the line near the top, yes (and you should comment the rest of it).  You won't have the "you're not root" problem because the program that monitors for this button press runs as root I believe11:40
remoteCTRLg0th: so it takes 2 hours, so? better than wasting days on kde??11:40
curiousxoh! if you try to install it and if the proxy is a cache proxy it possible11:40
remoteCTRLg0th: nope you cannot11:40
g0thremoteCTRL: you have no idea what you're talking about11:40
remoteCTRLg0th: same with encrypting, all data are being overwritten11:41

ryannathansWhat's the best way to create a 'drive' for use as a iSCSI target? I have /tank mounted and wish to use that, however, I am told that /etc/iet/ietd.conf only allows images or drives in /dev/. I can't find my /tank in /dev/11:42
trijntjewhat is the best way to create an image of a harddisk? I usualy use dd, but I would like something with error checking11:42
remoteCTRLg0th: you nkow what? it really depends on what hardware you're using.11:43
Xeneth_ryannathans: I think you can type "mount" and it will show your mounts11:43
remoteCTRLg0th: i could tell you one very quick fix, but it involves spending money...11:43
g0thhmm, how?11:43
Xeneth_ryannathans: That way you can see the device that is mounted at /tank11:43
g0thbuy external 3TB drive, copy home, reinstall, create unencrypted home, copy back?11:43
Dr_willistrijntje,  ddrescue for failing hardware, or fsarchiver11:43
abruskiis there any way to run ubuntu-bug in terminal without GUI11:44

g0thI made some gconf changes that might help11:45
g0thso I would like to "apply" them11:45
ryannathansXeneth_: 'sudo mount' doesn't display what's device /tank is. It doesn't even display tank. Tank is a mounted ZFS.11:45
remoteCTRLg0th: compiz --replace11:45
ryannathansXeneth_: I want to create an iSCSI target 'drive' on /tank without using images11:45
remoteCTRLg0th: or just log out and in again11:46

g0thok I try that11:46
g0thsomehow compiz is used or ccsm even though it isn't running11:46

bibi23hi, I always have permission issues when I developp, I can't edit or delete files created by apache and the opposite too. I've added myself in the www-data group but nothing changed, I always have to do chmod -R 777 on my website folder to fix this, what is the clean solution to avoid that?12:08
jribbibi23: make apache write the files with group write permissions12:09
g0thagree12:09
g0thbut it is also risky12:09
remoteCTRLg0th: in how far?12:10
g0thit might cause other unexpected problems12:10
remoteCTRLg0th: like?12:10
remoteCTRL:D12:10
g0th"unexpected"12:10
bibi23jrib: how can I do that?12:10
g0thjust because a reset is "supposed" to work does not mean it will12:10
remoteCTRLg0th: well... how did forrest gum say? "life's a box of pralinees..." :D12:10
jribbibi23: don't know; probably in apache's init script12:11
g0the.g.12:11
g0thjust upgrading ubuntu causes buggy behaviour already12:11
jrib...12:11
remoteCTRLg0th: from my experience out of several years of systems administration it will most likely be ok!12:11
g0theven though it is supposed to be the same as installing a new version from the start12:11
g0thI have the opposite experience12:11
remoteCTRLg0th: no it is NOT the same! not at all!12:12
g0thyes, I know ^^12:12
g0thbut it "should" be the same12:12
etzHello all12:13
jribg0th: it is "basically the same"12:13
remoteCTRLg0th: it cannot be the same! if you wich i can explain to you why, but if so in another channel :)12:13
etzIs there a new version yet?12:13
jribetz: not released yet12:13
etzWhen12:13
Prabzg0th: it should not be the same.. when upgrading you already have a ton of software that might create problems in the newer version12:13
bibi23jrib: I find out something in /etc/apache2/envvars => export APACHE_RUN_USER=www-data , I think it should be configured here?12:13
bibi23but there is nothing related to write permissions12:14
jribbibi23: that's what google suggests , yes (using that file)12:14
remoteCTRLetz: 26. of april i believe12:14
g0thPrabz: well problematic software should be removed by the package system12:14
etzThanks12:14
jribbibi23: you just add the umask to the end12:14
g0thPrabz: the point is the package system is not "bug free"12:14
etzWhat is the name of it?12:14
g0thso installing old version, then upgrade is not the same as installing the new version12:15
remoteCTRLetz: precise pangolin12:15
remoteCTRLg0th: nope it is definitely not12:15
etzPangolin?12:15
g0thmy system is quite old, so all those "bugs" pile up12:15
g0thand it develops its own "life"12:16
bibi23jrib: I don't really know I should set up the umask, could you please give me an example?12:16
remoteCTRLg0th: i hear you...12:16
g0thso it becomes fragile to any kind of change12:16
g0thespecially "radical resets"12:16
remoteCTRLg0th: -> offtopic;)12:16
Prabzg0th: if you want stability, use debian :)12:17
g0thI'm in offtopic ^^12:17
jribbibi23: you understand how umask works?  Think of umask as a "mask", it subtracts permissions away.  So if you want files to have 775 permissions, you would set "umask 002".  If you wanted 770 permissions, you would set "umask 007".  The default umask is 022.12:17

MrTAToadWhereever executables are placed :)12:45
arandMrTAToad: PPA? Just used by you privately? Ubuntu archives?12:45
sacarlsonMrTAToad: you could still make a deb file and setup your own repository to distribute12:45
mschremoteCTRL: yeah, but whatever changes there will be will come via apt right?12:45
remoteCTRLzpow: it is way more modern, debian is focused on stability, where ubuntuy is focused on usability12:46
MrTAToadI would hope to get it into the Ubuntu Marketplace12:46

Oeropdo debian or ubuntu ?12:48
baconbacon123U cant just hold on and hope it works it never has der me12:48
zpowopdo, #debian i guess12:48
MrTAToadDoes it require the source code in order to build the package ?12:49
remoteCTRLopdo: although this is not a debian help channel: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_type=search_videos&search_query=install+debian&search_sort=relevance&search_category=0&page=12:49
Guest47019@remoteCTRL ok im reading the link12:49
remoteCTRLGuest47019: enjoy!12:49
Guest47019ubuntu was good enough without the zeitgeist12:50
dr_willis1Guest47019:  pointless statement.12:50
sacarlsonMrTAToad: for security to be distributed in the ubuntu repository I would think the source code must be presented,  I would be surprized that android wouldn't be the same12:50
arandMrTAToad: No, though I'm hesitant to recoomend not including source instead of working on getting the source to buid correctly on Ubuntu ;)12:50
dr_willis1Guest47019:  disable it if you dont want the feature.12:51
MrTAToadAs I said previously, supplying the source could would be pointless12:51
MrTAToadAndroid just takes the executable + media in one package - simples :)12:51
sacarlsonMrTAToad: android as in java code?  that's already the source12:52
MrTAToadNo, using C++12:52
sacarlsonMrTAToad: ubuntu has c++ compilers no problem12:52
MrTAToadWell C++ and Java12:52
arandMrTAToad: Is it a proprietary application?12:52
MrTAToadMy android stuff ? Not really, no12:52
remoteCTRLi am looking to fix my pesky "input service connection timeout" problem when trying to attach my bluetooth mouse and keyboard, any help highly appreciated!12:53
sacarlsonMrTAToad: we even have android development tools in ubuntu that compile c++, so the code can be compiled on ubuntu12:54
MrTAToadYes, but I use GLBasic to compile to multiple platforms - unfortunately there is no GLBasic Linux version so it has to be compiled on Windows, for Linux12:54
MrTAToadResult is just the executable and any media required12:55
MrTAToadTherefore the only thing to package is executable and media12:55
rwqis that something like phonegap?12:55
MrTAToadIs what ?12:55
rwqglbasic12:55
MrTAToadDont know, never heard of phonegap12:56
MrTAToadIts a multi-platform programming system : Windows, Linux, Mac, Android, Palm, Windows CE, Pandora, GP2X12:56
MrTAToadAnd hopefully the Raspberry Pi when it comes out12:56
arandMrTAToad: Unless that is fixed, it likely won't be accepted in Ubuntu, you can easily make a purely-content package of your own though.12:57
MrTAToadShame really - looks like I'll have to stick with other marketplaces then12:57
dr_willis1raspberry pi can run android or linux..12:57
MrTAToadMaybe, but only Linux is supported12:58
dr_willis1The comercial/'for purchase' would not require the source to be included.13:00
spupuser1don't buy raspberry pi. it's too big13:01
MrTAToadThat would be possible - but would like to do a demo version as well13:01
spupuser1there is better one. it's called 'cotton candy'13:01
spupuser1it's smaller and faster13:01
UrBfor a comparable price too13:01
spupuser1search 'cotton candy' on youtube13:02
spupuser1don't buy raspberry pi, its arm soc is too weak13:02
spych102spupeser1: but you can't buy either a raspberry pi or a cotton candy yet13:03
sacarlsonMrTAToad: it apears your glbasic just compiles it basic code into c++,  all you would have to distribute is the c++ out of your glbasic to publish in ubuntu13:03
dr_willis1spupuser1:  and the cost differance is.. $35  vs $200....13:03
spupuser1yeah, chinese made mistakes13:03
spupuser1they are delayed13:03
MrTAToadWhich may not work if it requires compiling13:03
UrBspupuser1: define "too big" and "too weak" - those seem to lack "for activity / use x" ending13:04
spupuser1the price is not a problem for me13:04
spych102what about a beagle bone13:04
spych102at least you can buy one now13:04
MrTAToadBesides it means extracting all the source fiules from the temporary directory13:04
MrTAToadfiles13:04
spupuser1you can even buy a 'plug computer' -- arm also13:04
sacarlsonMrTAToad: I told you we have c++ compilers and as I see in this wiki that's how it's done anyway for mac http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GLBasic13:05
ahmadalzaTitle: GLBasic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (at en.wikipedia.org)13:05
spupuser1if you have more money, buy a google tv or apple tv -- they are arm htpcs also13:05
spych102spupuser1: are there any linaro supported plug computers?13:06
MrTAToadWith Mac, a project is created to which contains all the source files - whereby its all compiled in XCode13:06

weoxhello, i have simple problem . i change my vga from nvidia to ATI , my quastion is , realy i need to reinstall ubuntu or just change my driver ??13:08
arandsacarlson: I'm guessing that if glbasic is the source-source code, distributing the c++ generated version of it wouldn't fly, since that code's likely not something you'd want to actually use..13:08

ubottuhelpanoob: Ubuntu 11.10 uses GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default.  To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool".  For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic13:12

ahmadalzabazhang: Error: "hi" is not a valid command.13:12
sacarlsonarand: MrTAToad: I guess it wouldn't hurt to distribute both the glbasic and the c++ code,  but the c++ code I would think in ubuntu distrubution would require compile one the secured ubuntu compilers to prevent tampering.13:12

ampharosSDL apps flicker like crazy on my desktop, Xorg uses VESA drivers, Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.13:14
arandsacarlson: I'd say the lack of an open-source compiler would make the app in effect closed-source.13:15
sacarlsonarand: it sounds like it's just a cross compiler glbasic to c++,  it shows it's compatible with standard c++ compilers in the wiki13:16
dr_willis1ampharos:  and yoru video card is what exactly?13:17
arandsacarlson: Yes, but the c++ code is not likely human-readable, so it wouldn't be built from source, right?13:18
ampharosBarely a graphics card under Linux. SiS Mirage 3+ - I need to use the VESA driver to get proper video playback.13:18
sacarlsonarand: the glbasic would be readable and someone could confirm the c++ code was derived from the source and the c++ would still compile on the secured compilers13:19
ampharosUntil I get a PCIe graphics card, I'm stuck with this POS13:19

collinjsimpsonllutz, remoteCTRL: I can't use 'quota tools' for quotas on shared directories, so I'm mounting a 50MB file as a filesystem. I then mount that filesystem again using 'bindfs' to allow it to be shared.13:42

krishna_Hi. I have ubuntu 10.10 in my laptop. Starting few hours back, every time I login my admin account with the right password, it just comes back to the same screen after a blink of black screen with commands running. This problem came out of nowhere. Did no install. No update. No software removal.14:33
efe443Yeah. It lags with the Open source driver. Even with the Closed one14:33
RoboCydeAnonI want to boot from the flash until I am ready and comfortable to partition it in...14:33
remoteCTRLkrishna_: meaning that your x-server is crashing, have a look into /var/log/xorg.log.0 and look out for the error14:34
remoteCTRLefe443: what hardware?14:34
efe443Amd 5750 GFX card14:34

sacarlsondsnyders: sha1sum will just return a finger print number that you should see matches the number of the distribution docs14:35
dorinrileyp! i didnt understood the last one14:35
remoteCTRLkrishna_: if you installed it side by side and not over the ubntu installatin you can sure do that14:35
dsnyderssacarlson, You mean I have to manually check one long hex string against another?14:36
remoteCTRLefe443: in that case there is something wrong with your installation, with that hardware nothing is supposed to lag14:36
rileyporin so what resolution  does the tv say its doing ? ie press teh vga button and it should come up on screen ?14:36
sacarlsondsnyders: you can just with your eyes see the first 4 leters match that would be good enuf14:36
RoboCydeAnonok, I went to umbuntu site, was given an option to download and boot from a flash. I downloaded the program pendriver, as recommended, followed all of the instructions on the site for a windows pc. Was told to re-boot and ubuntu would show as an option to launch, that doesnt happen....14:36
krishna_remoteCTRL: Fedora 16 is in another partition..  Where shall I look for that file in root drive of Ubuntu 10.10?14:37
dsnyderssacarlson, What is the --check option for, then?14:37
dorinrileyp! vga button?14:37
rileypdorin so what resolution  does the tv say its doing ?     Press the av button and it should come up on screen ?14:37
krishna_remoteCTRL: Sorry, you mentioned it already. Going to find it now.14:37
remoteCTRLRoboCydeAnon: you need to enable boot from usb or change your boot device priority in your system's bios14:37
sacarlsondsnyders: I'm not sure do a man sha1sum to see details14:37
RoboCydeAnonHow?14:38
dorinrileyp! its 640x48014:38
remoteCTRLkrishna_: sure, you will most probably see a second harddrive in your file manager, just navigate to that one and look for /var/log/xorg.log.014:38
rileypdorin perhaps that is teh max res the tv can do? but it seems unlikely14:38
dsnyderssacarlson, the man file just says that it verifies the file against a checksum in the file.  It doesn't say how to create the file.14:38
RoboCydeAnonI followed these instructions http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server/download14:39
sacarlsonRoboCydeAnon: the link you used would be of value,  maybe your bios needs to be setup to boot from usb as first choice14:39
istevenmonhi guys i need help getting grub to work on my system, when installing i think i skiped the boot configuration and now i get the grub command interface and cant start any of my systems :( i booted from a live cd and checked the /dev/sda4 where my linux was installed and the /boot/grub./grub.cfg has all the configuration14:39
remoteCTRLRoboCydeAnon: usually the key to enter the bios during boottime is either F2 or Del, sometimes it is also F1014:39
remoteCTRLor even ESC14:39
cmcintoshsacarlson,14:39
RoboCydeAnonand thats at start up correct?14:39
dorinrileyp, i dont htink so, the instr.book has lots14:39
RoboCydeAnoncause if thats all i am missing, i feel silly...14:39
cmcintoshsacarlson, does those errors look understandable to you?14:39
dorinthe last one is 1920x120014:40
krishna_remoteCTRL: http://paste.ubuntu.com/897875/  This has the contents of that file. Could you please take a look?14:40
Sidewinder1RoboCydeAnon, If you're new to ubuntu, I'm not sure that you want Server; perhaps desktop would be better.14:40
remoteCTRLexactly, as soon as you see anthing at all on your screen after turning your computer on, you alternately hit the F2 and the del keys, then you navigat to "boot" and set the boot priority there14:40
rileypdorin pastebin the edid data of the tv please or your etc/x11/xorg.conf please14:40
sacarlsoncmcintosh: I'm not sure an uknown symbol would be catistrofic14:40
=== tensorpudding_ is now known as tensorpudding
remoteCTRLRoboCydeAnon: alternately many mainboards support pressing F8 during bootime in order to have a menu for what disk to boot from14:40
remoteCTRLkrishna_: sure, gimme a sec14:41
Dulakdsnyders: it's simply the sha sum followed by a space, and the full name of the file,  each file has it's own line.  It's the output of sha1sum redirected to a file, to make it easier to verify multiple files at once quickly.  It's actually faster for a single file to manually verify the sums match.14:41
Sidewinder1RoboCydeAnon, Server has no GUI, unless you install it afterward.14:41
RoboCydeAnonok, i will play with it. Thank you all. If i have issues, I will ask again. Thank you!14:41

roastedremoteCTRL: yes, I've been in man rsync. But I'm not sure why my command isn't working. Hence why I was asking for further clarification on it.16:32

roastedAnybody good with rsync? Curious how I can set up an exclude list. Is it just --exclude-from=/path/to/exclude/list?16:32
remoteCTRLroasted: different situation:what exactly isnt working? does it do nothing owr what happens?16:33
Fyodorovna!rsync16:33
ubottursync is a fast remote file copy and synchronization program - For more see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/rsync16:33
roastedremoteCTRL: the output errors out on a specific item because I don't have permissions to it. So I excluded it, but it's still erroring out16:34
Medjaidoes anyone know how to edit the keyboard shortcuts overlay when you hold down the super button?16:34
roastedFyodorovna: yes, yes, we know.16:34
Fyodorovnaroasted, pardon?16:34
roastedremoteCTRL: for some reason it's still "included" in the command.16:34
remoteCTRLroasted: try instead of the path to the file to use a simple "-" which will prompt you for the files to omit, and see what happens then?16:34
roastedremoteCTRL: yes, but then I have to exclude 20 items. that negates the point.16:35
remoteCTRLroasted: do it only for ONE and see what happens16:36
roastedremoteCTRL: it works if I do it individually. It does not work if I use the exclude list. that's why I'm asking for clarification on... the exclude list...16:36
Krishna_remoteCTRL, my ubuntu is going very unresponsive as the time increases!  Didn't expect this to happen. The disk is healthy as disk utility said.  The ubuntu os worked fine till 7 hours ago. And this problem came out of nowhere... I only thought such problems arising out of nothing in the *other* os :(16:36

Guest28140bonjour16:39
remoteCTRLroasted: you said you didnt want to write 20 exclude patterns in one commandline, well i was under the impression that writing something to a command line is something different thyn to be prompted for it, but since you seem to know better i will take myself out of the equasion, maxybe you can annoy somebody else...16:39

ksbalajiFyodorovna, my update-manager does the job of updating regularly. This freezing problem exists for the past 2 months only.16:47
Fyodorovnaksbalaji, yupgrades rather then a fresh install.ou mentioned upgrades from end of life releases, I suspect yor problem lies in doing16:48
Fyodorovnaksbalaji, you mention upgrades from end of life releases I suspect you problem is there.16:49
kexsteveremoteCTRL, it supposes to show all the available graphic resolution that works for grub and the splash.16:50
ksbalajiFyodorovna, You suggest that I install fresh? - That would be a very big job for me. I do not even know how many apps I have installed to tune my PC.16:50
jrib!clone | ksbalaji16:50
ubottuksbalaji: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude  --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate16:50

reasearcher123I have removed password by enabling Login without a password. But now I want to set password.What can I do?17:05
Fyodorovna!nomodeset | Devilz17:05
ubottuDevilz: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter17:05
Devilzi installed it about 2 months ago donlt knwo whether i should say it a fresh one or not17:05
FyodorovnaDevilz, wubi is not for longterm installs basically you might consider a regular dualboot.17:06
remoteCTRLreasearcher123: several possibilities: either you type passwd into a command prompt or u use the systems user-manager17:06
Devilzoh ok didn;t know that. but is there any way i can save the ubuntu data anyhow?! its realy imp for me17:07
reasearcher123remoteCTRL: when I use command prompt it asks for earlier password which does not exist at all17:07
remoteCTRLreasearcher123: of course it does17:07
reasearcher123remoteCTRL: The what password do I enter. I dont have any17:08
FyodorovnaDevilz, possibly you will probably get more specific help on the ubuntu forums though.17:08
remoteCTRLreasearcher123: what do you mean by "does not exist at all"?17:08
reasearcher123remoteCTRL: I have set no password for that username17:08
remoteCTRLreasearcher123: for what account are you trying to change the password?17:08
Devilzis the link given by ubottu useful for my case?17:08
remoteCTRLthen switch to a use4r that has administrative privileges and enter passwd username17:09
FyodorovnaDevilz, you might get it fixed there, then you can transfer the wubi to a partition.17:09
reasearcher123remoteCTRL: the account using which I logged in automatically.Its adminsitratiove privileges17:09
remoteCTRLreasearcher123: look. just because you are not prompted for the password during boot time does not mean that there is no password set17:09
reasearcher123remoteCTRL: ok.Let me try that17:10
remoteCTRLreasearcher123: of course you set a password at some point, percisely during installation, and that one is still valid17:10

I  find it interesting that a program which does the same EXACT thing in Windows is called a virus....do it in *nix and it's an honorable thing17:34
multiHYPi did that once with sudo and once as a root17:34
bobweavermultiHYP,  1st error cp: cannot stat `/opt/jetty/bin/jetty.sh': No such file or directory    need to get that file also17:35
bobweaverand put it there17:35
remoteCTRLmultiHYP: have you by any means installed jetty-hightide-javadoc before jetts itself??17:35
multiHYPno17:35
mobius999but yeah,  I have a few bitcoin for anyone willing to help17:35
multiHYPi had jetty 6 via apt-get that i removed and purged17:35
mobius999just holler17:35
remoteCTRLok, then lets start with the happy debugging session:D17:35
multiHYPbobweaver: but this supposed to be part of installation, i don't have it17:35
multiHYPok17:36
remoteCTRLmultiHYP: do sudo updatedb && sudo locate jetty.sh17:36
bobweaverit is saying that it can not find that file so no you do not have it or it is not in the right place17:36
multiHYPremoteCTRL: ok not output17:37
bobweaversudo find -name  jetty*17:37
bobweaverno17:37
multiHYPbobweaver: yes, so presumably errors because of installation fail17:37
bobweaversudo find / -name  jetty*17:37
bobweaverthere you go17:37
bobweaver^^17:37
multiHYPyes, there are some copies but in other places17:38
multiHYPdid i just mess up my server?17:38
bobweaverno the find command is used to find things17:38
remoteCTRLwhut?? find found it and locate did NOT?!?17:38
multiHYPits under /var/lib/dpkg/info/ and so on17:38
bobweaverremoteCTRL,  locate is not as powerful so to say17:38
multiHYPyes, but i wanted to avoid a failed installation17:39

multiHYPnow i have a semi install and cannot clean it up like with apt-get17:39
remoteCTRLbobweaver: i know find has a gazillion options, but until now i was of the impression, that locate does what is should, namely LOCATE,  though17:39
bobweavermultiHYP, to clean up with dpkg we use the -r option17:40

multiHYPoh wow17:52
remoteCTRLCaifas1: sec pls17:53
abstraktso I have a really strange problem, and I can't find quite the same issue on the forums or on google17:53
Caifas1Ok17:53
abstraktmy sound works, but it doesn't...17:53
abstraktlol, it's really weird, my sound works when I plug in my headphones, but not when I unplug them17:53
remoteCTRLabstrakt: that is indeed a bizzarre problem description17:53
multiHYPabstrakt: two separate settings?17:53
abstrakthowever, my windows half of my dual boot plays sound fine17:53
multiHYPos x has different settings, automatically switches in the background17:53
multiHYPmaybe yours is similar17:54
abstraktmultiHYP, sure, possibly... remoteCTRL yeah it's super strange... lemme tell you one more thing17:54
abstraktso... it *used* to be for a while, that I could solve this problem (my speakers not playing sound) by simply plugging IN my headphones, and then unplugging them17:54
abstraktand then my speakers would play17:54
remoteCTRLCaifas1: rightclick in to the editors window and click "new"17:54
abstraktnow, and I'm not sure what's changed... my headphones are all that works, AND, the behavior of my notifications has changed17:55
Caifas1remoteCTRL: ok17:55
multiHYPdone and done, thank you bobweaver17:55
multiHYPfirst the main, then javadocs. sweet :)17:55
remoteCTRLCaifas1: then add media_automount as key and set it to false17:55
abstraktit used to be that, when I plugged in my headphones, my system would bring up that little "growl" style notification telling me my sound is muted, then when I would unplug the headphones, that same growl popup would show up again, except telling me that my sound was on17:55
multiHYPdpkg is very attractive17:55
abstrakti've read the Sound FAQ on ubutuforms or help.ubuntu or something17:56
remoteCTRLmultiHYP: no problem :P17:56
bobweavermultiHYP,  dpkg is the backbone of apt17:56
abstrakti went through all the troubleshooting steps, but nothign was or is ostensibly wrong with my device that I can tell17:56
bobweaverso to say well kinda17:56
abstraktthe kernel driver is loaded17:56
abstrakti have /dev/dsp and I can pipe data to it17:56
abstrakti just have this really odd behavior17:56
abstraktI'm on XFCE, if that changes anything17:56
abstrakthas anyone heard of this and or does anyone have suggestions on where this problem could actually be?17:57
multiHYPnow I'm going to find nginx and mongodb to install the latest versions manually via dpkg too :)17:57
abstrakt+1 for both of those :)17:58
abstrakti need to learn how to package things17:58
abstrakti've tried reading the packaging guide so many times, it's just really obtuse17:58
abstraktbut right now... I need my musics :(17:58
remoteCTRLabstrakt: i can only imagine that the audio setting for some reason that i dunno stay on the headphone jack and dont jump to the speakers jack, when you pull the plug, isnt there a setting for that in xfce?17:58
bobweavermultiHYP,  there is a ppa for nginx17:58
abstraktremoteCTRL, possibly, I'm not sure where to find it17:58
abstraktthe sound settings are limited at best17:59
abstraktso far as I've seen17:59
multiHYPyes, saw it somewhere have to find it again17:59
bobweavermultiHYP,  http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-11.10-ispconfig-3  with a good old webmin ?17:59
remoteCTRLabstrakt: i couldnt tell from the top of my head, i havent seen xface in a while...17:59
bobweaverinstead of ispconfig ?17:59

ikoniainstall the "ubuntu-desktop" package18:54
nujabeshow do you learn what executable command you have via terminal?18:54
gvonujabes ? do you mean what program is run when you select Applications/.../terminal??18:55
smwnujabes, are you asking how to know what commands you have available?18:55

nujabesgvo, thanks i've been have this kind of problem with a lot on program with out gui's18:57
gvoanthony_: Nope, see what ikonia said.18:57
ikoniaanthony_: install "ubuntu-desktop" package18:57
smwnujabes, you are looking for its "options" or "flags"18:57
smwnujabes, that is what man pages are for :-)18:57
nujabessmw, i guess its option. idk what flags are18:57
[[thufir]]is this ok for a FQDN change to /etc/hosts to effect everything system wide correctly?  https://gist.github.com/218650818:58

nujabessmw, didn't come with a man page lol18:58

ikoniaanthony_: yes18:59
yellabs-r2is there an tool to view php sites on ubuntu18:59
ikoniayellabs-r2: web browser ?19:00
nujabessmw, ok so the command clam or clamav doesn't work after i installed the package clamav. so how can i find the executables?19:00
yellabs-r2hmm..19:00
gvonujabes: dpkg -L clamav19:00
smwnujabes, dpkg --listfiles clamav19:01
yellabs-r2web browser does not open .php19:01
smwah.. gvo beat me19:01
ikoniayellabs-r2: yes they do19:01
CaifasHello, is there a way to change only root password without change first user password together?19:01
nujabesgvo, so just list the files and find it that way?19:01
yellabs-r2well, it promps for gedit19:01
smwyellabs-r2, you need to have a webserver.19:01
ikoniayellabs-r2: if you visit a website running php - the browser will open it19:01
escott!root | Caifas19:01
ubottuCaifas: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo19:01
gvonujabes that's what I do19:01
ikoniayellabs-r2: are you trying to open a local php file ?19:01
yellabs-r2yes19:01
ikoniayellabs-r2: ok - then you need a webserver to host it19:01
smwyellabs-r2, you need to setup a webserver19:01
yellabs-r2wordpress theme want to preview it19:01
anonymous_no19:01
nujabesgvo, so you do that everything you get a package without a gui?19:02
ikoniayellabs-r2: you can't just prevew that19:02
ikoniayellabs-r2: you need a proper full wordpress install to see it19:02
gvonujabes no, just when I want to see what got installed where.19:02
yellabs-r2i was hoping i could, but okey, will need to fireup the server then19:02
yellabs-r2to bad.,..19:02
smwnujabes, it shows what files are attached to the package. Anything in /usr/bin is probably an executable.19:03
yellabs-r2ah well ...19:03
yellabs-r2thats life19:03
nujabesgvo, so do dpkg look for files with whatever name you give it?19:03
nujabesor the package?19:03
smwnujabes, the package19:03
gvoIf it's installed.19:03
yellabs-r2well thanks for the moral support ...19:03
kaphecan i restart ubuntu 10.04 without problems after having manually deleted older initrd.img-VERSION files?19:04
yellabs-r2take care you all !19:04
zykotic10nujabes: "dpkg -l" is hand to get a list of what's currently installed19:04
smwkaphe, I would not try that...19:04
gvonujabes: do a dpkg -l | grep clamav to see what's installed.19:04
smwkaphe, the answer is no.19:04
gvonujabes: then do a dpkg -L xxx where xxx is the name of the package you want to examin.19:04
nujabesmost things in usr/bin are executable right?19:04
nujabesthanks that's going to come in handy19:04
escottkaphe, if its old and you arent booting it then it should be fine, you can also delete them through dpkg by removing the particular old kernel versions19:05
gvonujabes: No, most files are elsewhere but the executables are in /usr/bin/ nhormally19:05
kaphesmw: so what can i do ?19:05
ggolin_hey guys, is it possible to install oneiric using netboot from http? dont feel like setting dhcp/tftp :/19:05
zykotic10nujabes: using "echo $PATH" will show where bash is looking for programs19:05
gvonujabes  take paticular notice of the file in the .../man/... directory.19:05
gvonujabes: that will tell you want man pages are there19:06
smwkaphe, reinstall the kernel19:06
kapheescott: shall i do this in addition?19:06
nujabesgvo, yeah i noticed that i'm about to check it out.19:06
gvoI can't spell to day.19:06
escottkaphe, removing through dpkg would be preferred19:06
zykotic10kaphe: you should be using apt-get to remove old kernels, not manually19:06
nujabeslol19:07
gvonujabes: if you see man/man1/clambc.1.gz then try man clambc19:07
smwkaphe, perhaps sudo apt-get --reinstall linux-image-generic19:07
smwkaphe, assuming that is the kernel you use19:07
smwkaphe, but it is a meta package... not sure if it would really reinstall.19:07
kaphesmw: think so but i am quiet sure it were only older versions19:08
smwkaphe, what?19:08
smwkaphe, I thought you deleted all your initrds19:08
v0lksmananyone know how to update alternatives non-interactively?19:08
kaphesmw: no i kept the one with the highest version number19:08
nujabesgvo, yeah i see that. so "man" will open a file with the name after it?19:08
v0lksmanIE I want to set vi as the default editor but update-alternatives requires interaction...I just want to script it19:08
smwkaphe, that was bad, but not a big problem19:09
unda7v7ersehi people, Ive big issue with my OS, problem with the network drivers : lan wifi bluetooth...I want to reinstall the original configuration, I've the .iso of my distribution mounted on a usb stick, some ideas?19:09
gvonujabes:  That's an over simplication, but yes.19:09
kaphesmw: so restarting would be fine?19:09
zykotic10v0lksman: update-alternatives is system wide - once per-system would be fine19:09
llutzv0lksman: update-alternatives --set19:09
smwkaphe, next time, sudo apt-get remove linux-image-whatever-generic19:09
nujabesgvo, well for here it save a lot of room the chat lol19:09
smwkaphe, if you left the one with the highest number, yes19:10
v0lksmanzykotic10: I know but I have many systems... :)19:10
smwkaphe, but some stuff still needs to be cleaned up19:10
v0lksmanllutz: update-alternatives --set editor vim?19:10
llutzv0lksman: like that, yes. man update-alternatives19:10
kaphesmw: you mean trash?19:10
smwkaphe, I mean you need to uninstall the kernel packages that used those19:10
smwkaphe, to update grub19:11
|Long|on 11.10 where you turn on vnc remote client?19:12
kaphesmw: i was allready searching for them but found it a bit challinging with so many different versions19:12
kaphesmw: is it ok if i only keep the highest version too?19:13
smwkaphe, keeping only the highest kernel version is fine19:14
Oerkaphe, you must keep the highest (current) + 1 before that ( used to boot recovery )19:14
smwkaphe, the reason multiple ones are kept is because we learn from experience. A long time ago a kernel update (I think from debian) bricked computers ;-19:14
smw;-)19:14
Oerkaphe, it will give you an error anyway19:15
smwkaphe, now they keep old ones in case new ones have errors19:15
kapheoer: what kind of eror?19:15
escottkaphe, failure to boot or just bad hardware support19:15
nujabessmw, if i wanted to write a script so i don't have to run a program via terminal everytime. do i just write the bash script in a txt and save it?19:15
_Marcusnujabes: Start the first line with #!/bin/bash19:16
escottnujabes, use a shebang #!/bin/bash and chmod +x the file19:16
_Marcusnujabes: Then save it as whatever, but have .sh at the end. Then chmod +x it like escott said19:16
smwnujabes, everyone else pretty much answered :-)19:16

escottkhat, you can setup an iptables to deny all traffic not through a proxy and then put your whitelist in the proxy19:59
jack_sparrowkhat, are you wanting to block sites from your browser?  I had a good one for firefox in adons19:59
khatsetup is a standalone laptop that an elderly person is to use for email and watching video on ustream20:00
khatsomeone else keeps going on all manner of sites (pr0n included)20:00
khatI blocked a helluva lot20:00
khatbut want to just deny all and allow only gmail and ustream20:01
jack_sparrowkhat,  which browser?20:01
sikilpaakeescott: it says snd_hda_intel is is use by "2" ..who the heck is "2"?20:01
khatFF is the browser20:01
khatif I had a server setup I could block it with either a proxy or something like ipcop/pfsense/etc.......20:01
khatbut I don't20:01
sikilpaakeescott: is this "process 2"? is "2" the pid?20:01
escottsikilpaake, two characters to the right is your answer20:01
jack_sparrowsikilpaake, are you having trouble with video or sound, snd-hda is hidef sound20:01

sikilpaakeescott: could it be process 2?20:03
mmarc__ikonia: I'm build my own compiler variation and need to know what option to use to set the proper search paths for crti.o and crt1.o20:03
ikoniammarc__: are you aware of the pitfalls and issues that can be caused by having your own compiler on the same machine as the ubuntu one ?20:03

escottsikilpaake, no it means that two things are using it. not sure what those two things could be if they aren't modules20:03

escottsikilpaake, it might be counting open file descriptors on devices created by that moduel20:04
jack_sparrowkhat most routers as well are easy to setup for that20:04
ikoniammarc__: so why do you need the ubuntu compile options ?20:04
sikilpaakeescott: f*** it, i'm rebooting20:04
ikoniasikilpaake: no need for that language20:04
escottsikilpaake, that was the correct answer :) figured you would get there eventually20:05
sikilpaakeikonia: i'm not allowed to say "frop"?20:05
mmarc__ikonia: I'd like to look how search paths are specified there and study from it. Could you please be more specific about looking into the source? I did apt-get source gcc, but no configure options are in there... As far as I can see.20:05
ikoniasikilpaake: look - you know that's not what you where saying, that's why you starred it out, please don't do it in future20:05

TheCyberShockerWell looks like not all the files are there, oddly.20:48
Jordan_UTheCyberShocker: Device names can change, what is now "sdb" could be "sdc" another day. You should use UUIDs in your /etc/fstab20:48
TheCyberShockerHow would I go about doing that Jordan_U? Still pretty new at this stuff.20:48
jack_sparrow!uuid20:48
ubottuTo see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)20:48
research4oscarI ask because under the software to install i have basic ubuntu server, openssh server, lamp, ubuntu desktop.20:49
mirko1Jordan_U, TheCyberShocker: my personal opinion: use labels instead of UUIDs20:49
ssfdre38research4oscar, no just eater use pure-ftpd or proftpd and its apt-get install pure-ftpd or apt-get install proftpd20:49

sburwood1Do I need something specific to get my Ubuntu desktop to connect via usb with my Archos (Android) tablet??21:29
rocky_jordan_U ok what about this though http://paste.ubuntu.com/898405/21:29
i1I've Extracted The File To See The Folder But Whenever I Have To Copy It Doesn't Seem To Work.21:29
Prabzresearch4oscar, what are you trying to accomplish?21:29
Prabzi1, that's because you don't have permission for writing to the filesystem outside your home directory21:30
i1Okay, But How Would You Be Able To Then?21:30

research4oscari want to run a small website from my ubuntu installation.21:31
research4oscarI already have some files i would like to move.21:31
research4oscarfrom my laptop on to my new ubuntu/lamp installation.21:31
Prabzi1, you could use ".themes" folder in home folder itself. If you're in nautilus, press Ctrl+H to see it21:32
mirko1i1: by executing the extraction program (file-roller?) as root (the super user), but if you only want to install the theme for you, not for all users, just extract it into the directory /home/YOUR_USER_NAME/.themes21:32

Oeraifnord, ctrl + alt + T21:37
rocky_Could anyone suggest a good alternative for webmin for my latest version of ubuntu ?21:37
PrabzBlackBomb, what processor? If you've purchased it quite recently, 64 bit would also run21:38
marxjohnsonBlackBomb: what processor does it have?21:38
aifnordPrabz: I'm trying to, but I can't find it anywhere21:38
aifnordPrabz: I figured if I knew what it was called I could google which plugin the binding is defined it21:38

PrabzBlackBomb, C2Duo works with 64 bit21:39
MrHanjrahdamn its 5 am o.021:39
Prabzin fact, it is amd64 architecture21:39
BlackBombawesome21:40
MrHanjrahnighty nite people21:40
mirko1BlackBomb: i still advice to use 32bit unless you a) know that there are working 64bit drivers for all your hardware and b) you don't need all the 16+ GB of RAM (or wherever the RAM limit for PAE was).21:40
BlackBombThanks21:40
Prabzaifnord, it's called unity application switcher21:40
marxjohnsonyou can double check by logging in and running sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start21:40
SilfenXdoes anyone know what I would need to install on top of gnome-core to be able to get a working GUI version of networkmanager?21:40
hamed_shahieni want to ask about mysql is any room talking about this ????21:40
kantlivelonganyone know why my sound gets messed up sometimes? like if i hit tab a few times in console it gets distorted21:40
galamarhow can I get the name of one of the #backtrack-linux ops?21:40
galamarHello. btw.21:41
PrabzSilfenX, tried networkmanager?21:41
Cpudan80/msg chanserv access #backtrack-linux list21:41
kantlivelongrocky_: learn the console and youll never need webmin :)21:41
aifnordPrabz: hmm, I've disabled "key to start the switcher" in the unity compiz plugin, how come it pops up anyway?21:41
PrabzSilfenX, nm-applet21:41
SilfenXPrabz: yes, but it wont show up in my virtual desktop (vnc)21:41
kantlivelongrocky_: but  cpanel is always nice.. not free tho21:42
BlackBombmirkol: Yeah Im running 64 bit on my laptop and i seem to have a hard time getting my ATI graphics card working properly lol. I was told to run the open source driver21:42
SilfenXPrabz: I assume it ought to show up next to the clock, in the notification area?21:42
galamarthanks.21:42
PrabzSilfenX, yes, that's where21:42
Prabzaifnord, what exactly is your "section" key? what keyboard layout?21:43
i1Mirko1: Here's The Deal Okay, I've Downloaded The Theme From DeviantArt And Extracted The File That Was In My Downloads Then Tried To Copy The Folder Into The Usr/Share And Themes Folder But Says That I Can't Because I Don't Have Permissions To Create It Says That While Copying It To The Themes Folder.21:44
aifnordPrabz: it's the §-key (above tab and below escape on my keyboard), xev says the keysym is "section"21:45
Prabzi1, that's true. you will not have permission to create it there. instead copy it  in /home/.local/themes21:45
mirko1i1: please don't capitalze all words, makes your posts hard to read. post all down-case or in proper case if you have the patience.21:45
rocky_!vsftpd21:46
i1Mirko1: Okay no problem.21:46
research4oscarI created a helloworld file in my desktop ubuntu's public folder.  I can view the file from my laptop by hitting the internal ip address.  however when i connecting to the internal ip address using ipconfig, i get a time out error.21:46
mirko1now, you cannot write anything to /usr/share/* because you're not root (admin user is not the super user). as I said, extract  it into your personal .themes directory21:46
research4oscarI can see that openssh has been installed.21:46
ccallahanWell, I have a awkward situation. I just installed 11.10 with Wubi. I have a sound card that shows up in alsamixer, but Pulse does not see it.21:46
ccallahanAny thought on how to fix it?21:47
i1Prabz: Question? how would I be able to copy it in home/local/themes21:47
Prabzaifnord, Is your keyboard layout correct? Seems that your system is swapping "section"  and "TAB".21:47
mirko1i1: sorry, missed the i1: look at my last reply21:47
marxjohnsonresearch4oscar: what do you mean by "connecting to the internal ip address using ipconfig"?21:47
PrabzI1, it's "/home/<username>/.local/themes21:48
jack_sparrowil remember the .local  is hidden21:48
rocky_ok i really dont understand why i cant install packages and i know this one exist because i did it yesterday on another machine some one please help http://paste.ubuntu.com/898437/21:48
ccallahanrocky_: Did you try running a "apt-get update"?21:48
rocky_no let me try21:49
ccallahanOnce aptitude is done rebuilding the cache, try the apt-get again.21:49
aifnordPrabz: hmm, I think so, it seems to work fine and both tab and the "section" keys produce expected results when pressing them21:49
ccallahanas in, apt-get install vsftpd21:50
i1Prabz: Thanks for the help.21:50
i1Mirko1: Thanks too mirko21:50
rocky_ccallahan thanks ill let you know what happens21:50

jack_sparrowccallahan, the beauty of unity21:54
jack_sparrowit works so well no one needs help21:54
Prabzjack_sparrow, lol21:55
Seveasccallahan, if pulse doesn't see your soundcard, maybe some other application is hogging it? Try fuser /dev/snd/*21:55
research4oscarany recommendations on some good reading to getting started with ubuntu environment for web development.  I found the following article: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/openssh-server.html21:55
SilfenXPrabz: I ve tried installing network-manager via synaptic but it never shows up in the notification area. I have to start it from the system menu and it seem it s just an empty shell cust it shows no connections and whatever I add to it seem to have no effect what so ever21:56
Seveasresearch4oscar, install an httpd and whatever software you want to use as web framework21:56
maxflax What module name should I be looking for if I want to see if my broadcom wifi Prop is loaded? my card is a BCM4322421:56
maxflax What module name should I be looking for if I want to see if my broadcom wifi restricted is loaded? my card is a BCM4322421:56
research4oscarI have lamp installed along with bluefish ide.21:56
SeveasSilfenX, the thing in the notification area is not networkmanager, but nm-applet. Part of network-manager-gnome21:57
PrabzSilfenX, what version of ubuntu21:57
SilfenXlucid, 10.0421:57
PrabzSilfenX, See my earlier reply.. nm-applet21:57
research4oscarhowever i am new to setting up my port 80 and 22 to be able to transfer files from my laptop when I am not home using an ftp client.21:57
ccallahanSeveas: Assuming I am reading this right, no one is using the sound devices. I'm going to go ahead and pastebin it though just in case.21:58
angswhat does this command do ". /usr/local/angstrom/arm/environment-setup"21:58
SilfenXoh, I ll tinker with that then see if anything changes - cheers21:58
marxjohnsonresearch4oscar: are you trying to make the server accessible via the internet, not just your home LAN>21:58
marxjohnson?21:58
Seveasangs the "." there means "read and execute this shell script in the current shell"21:59
angsSeveas: thank you21:59
Seveasangs, as if you would type all the commands in environment-setup directly21:59
research4oscarmaxjohnshon: yes that would be ideal. but even it i can just get winscp working that would be okay for now.21:59
ccallahanSeveas: Here is the pastebin: http://pastebin.ca/213185822:01
Seveasccallahan, yeah, something is using it22:01
marxjohnsonresearch4oscar: Hold on, you seem to be asking about 2 completely different things, so let's take one at a time22:01
Seveasccallahan, ps aux | grep 753922:01
ccallahanOh! That's a pid!22:02
ccallahanOkay22:02
Seveasyeah, it's a pid :)22:02
marxjohnsonresearch4oscar: Your Ubuntu server and windows PC are within your home LAN, am I correct?22:02
research4oscarmatxjohnson: sorry about that. lets start with just being able to transfer files from my windows laptop to my ubuntu desktop from within my LAN22:02
marxjohnsonok cool22:02
research4oscaryes.22:02
ccallahanThe pid belongs to Pulse. Should I restart the service?22:03
marxjohnsondo you have PuTTY on your windows box?22:03
research4oscaryes.22:03
marxjohnsoncan you log in to your Ubuntu box with PuTTY?22:03
Seveasccallahan, given that it doesn't seem to do much now, thay may not be a bad idea22:03
research4oscari'll try now.22:03
ccallahanI add "&" to the end of a command to daemonize it, right? (Sorry, been a year or two since I have used Linux)22:05
SilfenXwoudl anyone why I get this message? "update-rc.d: warning: /etc/init.d/StartVNC.sh missing LSB information"22:05
SilfenX*know22:05
Seveasccallahan, ehm, why not do /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart :)22:05
SeveasSilfenX, yeah, it's missing LSB headers. Look at the top of another file in /etc/init.d to see what they are22:06

Seveasin that case the & trick works22:07
mirko1As a Ubuntu/Linux online supporter, I sooner or later have to get familar with the Gnome3 gnome-shell/Unity stuff (I actually don't want to, sigh and grump). Since both need 3D acceleration, I just can't run it in VBox. Any hints from people in a similar situation22:07
marxjohnsonresearch4oscar: right, that means the SSH service is running, you should also be able to log in via  WinSCP using the same credentials22:07
ccallahanSeveas: There we go.22:09
ccallahanNow she is working22:09
research4oscarmarxjohnson: i will try it again.22:09
ccallahanNow, do I need to file a ticket or should I wait to see if it does this again when I reboot?22:10
Seveasccallahan, the latter.22:10
ccallahanI figured22:10
ccallahanThanks!22:10
research4oscarmarxjohnson: you are right. i had the ip address wrong.22:10
research4oscarI will try and transfer some files.22:11

cuddylierYes, root22:15
cuddylierskel, yes root22:15
skelcuddylier: I'd check to see if ryan is part of the admin group22:16

BLZbubbahello there, i'm trying precise & unity - is there a way to hide the panel?22:18
SilfenXmirkol: ok, give ma few minutes22:18
marxjohnsonresearch4oscar: using sudo means you're creating the file as root22:18

cuddylierusermod: cannot lock /etc/passwd; try again later.22:18
cuddylierI get that error22:18
jimi_cor, as root, gpasswd -a admin ryan22:18
skelcuddylier: are you currently root?22:18
marxjohnsonrather than your normal user which you're logging in as22:18
jimi_cgpasswd's a little nicer, since you don't have to worry about specifying all the groups or changing your default group22:19
cuddylierYes I am root22:19

rasustoLunar_Lander_: it encrypts the home folder only23:27
research4oscarI installed webmin under ubuntu. I anticipate I will be the only one using my webserver.  however can anyone recommend a basic user setup.23:27
Lunar_Lander_ah23:27
Lunar_Lander_is that good?23:27
SusyLegsis this the one I need? ubuntu-11.10-alternate-amd64.iso.torrent23:27
GurtyMonde de merde23:27
ActionParsnipresearch4oscar: webmin isn't appropriate for Ubuntu23:27
lewis1711zykotic10: thanks23:27
research4oscarmainly i am going to be using my ubuntu setup to work on different web projects.23:27
haydenhummelSusyLegs: Just use TrueCrypt23:27
rasustoSusyLegs: yes, assuming that is the architecture you need23:28
ActionParsnip!webmin | research4oscar23:28
ubotturesearch4oscar: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system.23:28
cuddylierhttp://pastebin.com/dgCE85sa23:28
research4oscaroh really, that sucks. it looked so nice.23:28
Lunar_Lander_thanks again people23:28
SusyLegsOk im downloading ubuntu-11.10-alternate-amd64.iso.torrent rioght now :)23:28
rasustoLunar_Lander: it protects sensitive files in the home partition, but it could be possible to recover all or part of that data from caches outside of the home folder or in the swap space23:28
haydenhummelWill Ubuntu ever natively offer Oracle/Sun Java?23:29
szalcuddylier: where did you get that kernel from?23:29
SusyLegswill alternative ISO install next to W7 and create dual boot menu?>23:29
ActionParsnipcuddylier: you aren't using an official kernel23:29
cuddylierIt is OVH kernal23:29
cuddylierMy host23:29
rasustoSusyLegs: yes, but I beleive you have to do the partitioning yourself. It isn't as user friendly as the normal iso23:29
haydenhummelSusyLegs: Yes. Just chose the option to do so.23:30
Jordan_USusyLegs: I would personally say that home directory encryption (alon with swap, which is what the installer does when you select home directory encryption) is all that's needed.23:30
ActionParsnipcuddylier: I suggest you uninstall something like libreoffice etc, then install bleachbit and use it to clean space down23:30
cuddylierI want to switch partions though23:30
research4oscarso then i should setup my users manually?23:30
cuddylierI dont want the 10gb one23:30
research4oscarusing the command line23:30
cuddylier1.7tb is being wasted23:30
Jordan_Uhaydenhummel: SusyLegs: Truecrypt is not generally recommended because it's effectively non-Free and I don't think we can support it here.23:31
SusyLegsJordan_U: but rasusto said different programs can leave caches outside of the home folder. For maxiumum security, full disk is the only way to go23:31
ActionParsnipcuddylier: you can move things over and symlink the folders I guess23:31
cuddylierHow?23:31
zykotic10!movehome | cuddylier23:32
ubottucuddylier: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving23:32
cuddylierMy "home" folder has 1.7tb free23:32
haydenhummelJordan_U: It's very useful though.23:32
cuddylierYeah, it has all the free space23:32
hauxWhen I enable crossfire in ubuntu (It's actually AMD's "Dual Graphics"), ubuntu freezes on the load screen after restart. Any ideas on how to get this working?23:33
haydenhummelSusyLegs: Why do you want your system to be this secure? Is it all not a bit over the top?23:33
zykotic10cuddylier: do you have much apt archives?  du -sh /var/cache/apt/archives23:33
SusyLegsim settling for Desktop as its more user friendly apparently.  Do I then select to encrypt home folder?23:33
haydenhummelSusyLegs: As we have all already said; yes.23:34
cuddylier130M    /var/cache/apt/archives23:34
SusyLegsrasusto: you said some programs will leave caches outside of the home folder.   So how can I clean those caches?23:34
SusyLegshaydenhummel: ok hehe23:34
haydenhummelSusyLegs: BitBleach23:34
SusyLegshaydenhummel: just checking :)23:35
grumpy_hello all New to bash...can anyone tell me how to look at the following log file:" /tmp/vmware-root/setup-6733.log" I'm having issues trying to install wmware23:35
SusyLegshaydenhummel: whats BitBleach and how does it work and what does it do and how much does it cost to buy?23:35
SusyLegs!bitBleach23:35
=== `mOOse` is now known as m00se
SusyLegs<ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bitBleach23:35
haydenhummelWell somebody's new to OSS any way. How much does it cost :p23:36
SusyLegshaydenhummel: the Ubunti Bot knows nothing about Bitbleach23:36
haydenhummelIt's free.23:36
SusyLegshaydenhummel: whats BitBleach and how does it work and what does it do and how much does it cost to buy?23:36
SusyLegshaydenhummel: whats BitBleach and how does it work and what does it do?23:36
SusyLegsand where do I get it?23:36
zykotic10cuddylier: what is using up your /? "cd /" then "du -sh * 2>/dev/null" will list all the subdirectories and there sizes23:37
haydenhummelSusyLegs: It clears up temp files such as cache memory. It's free and you can get it from the Ubuntu Software Cneter after you've installed Ubuntu.23:37
SusyLegshaydenhummel: well that takes care of the security issues, thanks :)23:37
cuddylierhttp://pastebin.com/Fct1Cfj223:37
cuddylierI want to use the other partion though :(23:37
grumpy_can anyone tell me how to look at the following log file:" /tmp/vmware-root/setup-6733.log" I'm having issues trying to install wmware23:37
cuddylierIt is empty23:38

twig11I need some assistance repairing a partition table on a dual-boot install with Windows XP and Ubuntu 11.04. Both were running fine until I booted ubuntu 11.10 from a usb flash drive that had a full install of ubuntu on it and next time I tried booting from my hard drive grub said it "couldn't detect a filesystem," and gave me a grub-rescue prompt which I have no idea how to use. I've booted from a liveusb install and gparted shows my ubuntu partition, dev/sda523:40

pmjdebruijnSeveas: it actaully complains about not being able to load /usr/lib/compiz/libcore.so23:41
haydenhummelquit()23:41
cespareit's not an argument to add-apt-repository23:41
Seveaspmjdebruijn, odd as that doesn't exist. Try upgrading23:42
zykotic10cespare: "apt-cache policy" might show you?23:42

zykotic10_Marcus: i thought what you where describing was called hibernate?23:44
cuddylierWhy does my ubuntu server not use my 1.7tb partion and use the 10gb one..?23:44
_Marcuszykotic10: I was thinking that, but isn't that where when you turn on the computer, it goes directly to Ubuntu, not loading GRUB?23:45

cuddylierWhy does my ubuntu server not use my 1.7tb partion and use the 10gb one..?23:49
zykotic10cuddylier: that's how you installed it...23:49
bastidrazornancy--: bwm-ng is a terminal program that lets you monitor your usage23:49
=== matt5_ is now known as matt5
cuddylierReally?23:49
cuddylierOh.. :S23:49
cuddylierBecause the 1.7tb is my "home" folder23:50
cuddylierBut ubuntu isn't using the home folder23:50
cuddylierAlso, what is the best gui to get?23:50
pmjdebruijnratcheer: I don't use proprietary drivers23:50
cuddylierIf I do reinstall23:50

cuddylierBecause I want to drag things and actually use the server23:55
cuddylierI hate command line23:55
zykotic10nancy--: virtualbox-ose is old - it's been merged with vitualbox23:55
cuddylierAnd it is useless for what I want to do23:55
cuddylierI have to select the server edition from my host23:55
mirko1cuddylier: please unlearn the word "best". there's no such thing. it depends. and +1 Oscailt. if you hate the command line, don't operate a unix /whatever sort) system.23:55
cuddylierHow do I not? I don't have a clue what unix means23:56
mirko1s/system/server/23:56
nancy--zykotic10,  ok23:56
Oscailtcudylier: Well it's a real resource hog. If you really want to then perhaps  a light weight GUI desktop such as XFCE23:56
cuddylierI have xfce23:57
marina_-I want to get in touch with people who actually run some blogs or websites? anyone arround here ? i ' d like him to msg me plz :) thanx23:57
zykotic10nancy--: most likely you're seeing a virtual package name, to maintain packwards compatibility23:57
OscailtWell then GNOME, but serious that just an needless resource hog. It's not to hard to learn a few commands.23:57
mirko1cuddylier: Linux is a non-standard Unix system. For operating a Linux/Unix server you *do* need command line knowledge23:58
Oscailtmirko1: +infinty23:58
jimi_cnon-standard unix is redundant though23:58
cuddylierI like using a GUI but need to use linux23:58

twig11What's the best way to repair a damaged partition on a dual-boot Windows/Ubuntu install? Grub doesn't recognize a filesystem on the partition and it's / so I can't boot ubuntu currently.
