[00:00] <Nicolas_Leonida2> bind9 fails to load where are the logs I could look at?
[00:00] <celthunder> zykotick9: hmm wonder why its depreciated
[00:00] <n-iCe> celthunder: there is nothing in resolv.conf and dhcpcd gices that the command was not found
[00:00] <celthunder> Nicolas_Leonida2: in /var/log with all the others unless you set it to somewhere else
[00:00] <n-iCe> violinappren: yes, says: eth': negotiated 100batetx-df link ok
[00:00] <violinappren> n-iCe: the command is: dhclient eth0
[00:00] <celthunder> n-iCe: dhclient eth0 then and add nameserver 8.8.8.8 to /etc/resolv.conf
[00:00] <Nicolas_Leonida2> celthunder: what is the log file called
[00:01] <celthunder> Nicolas_Leonida2: try syslog? i cant remember its in one of the generic ones just tail a few till you find it
[00:01] <violinappren> celthunder: n-iCe: dont edit /etc/resolv.conf directly, dhclient will overw
[00:01] <violinappren> overwrite it *
[00:01] <celthunder> violinappren: thats why i said edit it afterwords...
[00:02] <n-iCe> ok, be right back
[00:02] <zykotick9> violinappren: are you sure dhclient will overwrite it?  i know Network Manager does, but would be surprised if dhclient did.
[00:02] <celthunder> i have mine read only...i hate networkmanager and other crap messing with my settings.
[00:02] <violinappren> celthunder: it will still get overwritten next time dhclient runs, the correct way to insert a name server there is by adding a directive in /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf
[00:03] <violinappren> n-iCe: after you run dhclient, pastebin the output of the command: sudo route -n
[00:04] <violinappren> zykotick9: ^^
[00:04] <archboxman> celthunder: thanks again got to go to work ;
[00:04] <zykotick9> violinappren: thanks - i saw ;)
[00:04] <archboxman> celthunder: thanks again got to go to work ;)
[00:04] <celthunder> archboxman: later
[00:04] <__r00t__> what's the proper way of restarting your network ?
[00:04] <archboxman> bye bye room
[00:04] <archboxman> :)
[00:05] <celthunder> __r00t__: there is none...shutdown probably the clients first then the layer 2 then layer 3 stuff i suppose
[00:05] <alteregoa> /etc/init.d/networking restart
[00:05] <__r00t__> x
[00:05] <zykotick9> alteregoa: lol
[00:05] <__r00t__> ce.
[00:05] <__r00t__> ,
[00:05] <__r00t__> damn it
[00:06] <celthunder> alteregoa: uhm...that only restarts his pcs networking not his network
[00:06] <__r00t__> celthunder: what's wrong with alteregoa 's way of doing it ?
[00:06] <alteregoa> or something
[00:06] <alteregoa> huh
[00:06] <celthunder> __r00t__: you need your isp to fully reboot your network they have to turn off there switch too...
[00:06] <violinappren> celthunder: alteregoa: it may very well work, but it's hardly a way to debug a network problem
[00:06] <zykotick9> alteregoa: as soon as you say "/etc/init.d/ANYTHING" it's outdated for Ubuntu
[00:06] <alteregoa> or network-manager afaik
[00:07] <__r00t__> celthunder: can I have whatever you're smoking ?
[00:07] <alteregoa> then its sudo start or sudo stop network-manager
[00:07] <alteregoa> whatever the conventions change faster than a gorilla changes its panties
[00:07] <gustavo_cm> Hi there. GParted shrunk my /home ext4 partition bud didn't update the superblock. How can I solve it? I tried fsck, but nothing.
[00:07] <celthunder> violinappren: he asked how to reboot his network....i answered i didnt say he should do it __r00t__ ask better questions and you wont get stupid answers
[00:08] <johnhambl> i am havin an issue with wine, not sure if anyone here is willing to help i ran it last night for the first time(world of warcraft) ran EXCELLENT i alt tabbed out of it ever since ive been getting errors when i try to load it again
[00:08] <johnhambl> fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x32ed20,0x00000000), stub!
[00:08] <violinappren> celthunder: networks dont get "rebooted".. they get configured correctly
[00:08] <__r00t__> celthunder: ? <__r00t__> what's the proper way of restarting your network ?
[00:08] <johnhambl> also i run wine wow.exe -opengl flag
[00:09] <celthunder> violinappren: you can reboot all the harware in your network ...also i did say there isnt one
[00:09] <violinappren> celthunder: you're abusing the term "reboot"
[00:09] <zykotick9> johnhambl: #winehq might be more help?
[00:09] <johnhambl> thanks
[00:09] <__r00t__> All I wanted to know is if I what's the best way to update your network settings if you've made changes to /etc/network/interfaces !
[00:09] <wylde> johnhambl: try in #winehq
[00:10] <alteregoa> well reboot in tamarian language means rise when the walls fell
[00:10] <violinappren> johnhambl: i'd wipe the .wine directory in my home
[00:10] <zykotick9> johnhambl: careful with violinappren's suggestion above!!!
[00:10] <johnhambl> lmao
[00:10] <violinappren> johnhambl: zykotick9: yeap, that's just what I would do!
[00:11] <zykotick9> violinappren: that would delete all installed programs
[00:11] <celthunder> zykotick9: only from wine
[00:11] <n-iCe> it is working now!
[00:11] <zykotick9> violinappren: sharing that info might be important to the person!
[00:11] <celthunder> n-iCe: glad to hear it
[00:11] <lionofgod> Hello, I am using Ubuntu 11.10, When I watch videos, they are tinted blue, I have tried a few solutions online, but none have worked, can someone offer me a solution?
[00:11] <violinappren> zykotick9: you're right, the tone was not enough
[00:11] <n-iCe> celthunder: I need my wifi now :p first I read I need network-manager is that a package?
[00:11] <celthunder> lionofgod: is your monitor plugged in all the way?
[00:12] <lionofgod> Yes
[00:12] <lionofgod> wait
[00:12] <lionofgod> let me double check
[00:12] <celthunder> n-iCe: you dont need network manager but yes it is a package
[00:12] <zykotick9> lionofgod: do you have mplayer installed?
[00:12] <celthunder> lionofgod: hdmi vga or dvi and in all video players or one in particular
[00:13] <celthunder> also all videos or just one
[00:13] <lionofgod> What is mpplayer?
[00:13] <wylde> !info mplayer
[00:13] <zykotick9> celthunder: i take it you aren't familiar with the nvidia blue tint issue (it's with XV output actually)
[00:13] <lionofgod> alll videos ointernet
[00:14] <zykotick9> celthunder: oh - guess this is the new flash blue tint issue in this case.
[00:14] <lionofgod> All videos on internet are tinted blue and my moniter is connected properly
[00:14] <celthunder> zykotick9: nope...i have an nvidia card all my videos work fine
[00:14] <n-iCe> ok I', gonna install it but how do I install my wireless celthunder
[00:14] <lionofgod> I ahve tried using recommeneded nvidia driver and the other one but it does not work
[00:14] <celthunder> lionofgod: so flash? though zykotick9 apparently knows the issue
[00:14] <pvssanjeev> I dont think NVIDIA graphics drivers are installed and i am not able to install them
[00:14] <zykotick9> celthunder: for flash i got nothin'
[00:14] <celthunder> n-iCe: modprobe your wireless module then iwconfig to connect..
[00:14] <lionofgod> no ideas?
[00:14] <celthunder> pvssanjeev: why not
[00:14] <n-iCe> how can I know my module
[00:15] <violinappren> n-iCe: celthunder: not needed at all, if you're going to install and use network manager
[00:15] <celthunder> zykotick9 lionofgod :  so its just flash or ?
[00:15] <pvssanjeev> i have dnlded the .run file
[00:15] <lionofgod> It is just flash
[00:15] <violinappren> n-iCe: are you using a GUI? gnome, kde, ...
[00:15] <pvssanjeev> from the website
[00:15] <lionofgod> and I am using flash player
[00:15] <n-iCe> GNOME
[00:15] <celthunder> pvssanjeev: run it from init 3
[00:15] <lionofgod> on chromium
[00:15] <celthunder> lionofgod: then blame flash i guess...no ideas sorry
[00:16] <lionofgod> Alright thanks anyways
[00:16] <wylde> pvssanjeev: you'd be better off trying jockey-gtk first if you're using gnome.
[00:16] <lionofgod> Are their any other players that ahndle flash?
[00:16] <violinappren> n-iCe: isn't there a icon in the top right corner of two opposing arrows?
[00:16] <lionofgod> *handle
[00:16] <pvssanjeev> I am on UBUNTU 11.10
[00:16] <n-iCe> violinappren: no
[00:16] <lionofgod> I tried gnash but it failed horribly and would not play flash online
[00:16] <celthunder> pvssanjeev: ok?
[00:16] <violinappren> n-iCe: how did you install ubuntu ?
[00:16] <lionofgod> I did not used to have this problem before but got it all of a sudden
[00:17] <celthunder> lionofgod: after an update or?
[00:17] <lionofgod> Not sure
[00:17] <lionofgod> Cannot remember
[00:17] <lionofgod> sorry :(
[00:17] <celthunder> zykotick9: pm?
[00:17] <lionofgod> What version ubuntu you using celt?
[00:17] <zykotick9> lionofgod: it started with a flash update - i heard it even effected windows boxes as well.
[00:17] <lionofgod> 0.o
[00:17] <lionofgod> Is it possible to roll back flash version?
[00:17] <pvssanjeev> "No proprietary drivers are in use"
[00:17] <pvssanjeev> this is the popup i get
[00:17] <celthunder> lionofgod: none i use arch..i help in here because i can not because i use it
[00:18] <lionofgod> So theirs no way to install an older version on flash?
[00:18] <lionofgod> *of
[00:18] <celthunder> pvssanjeev: go to init 3 sudo run the .run file you got or install the prop drivers from the repo
[00:18] <celthunder> lionofgod: of course there is
[00:19] <lionofgod> Can you please tell me what version you are using?
[00:19] <pvssanjeev> go to init 3
[00:19] <pvssanjeev> how do i get that?
[00:19] <celthunder> pvssanjeev: uhm go to a terminal and kill X
[00:19] <celthunder> pvssanjeev: tty1-6 should be free to use
[00:20] <lionofgod> celthunder: What version of flash are you using?
[00:20] <celthunder> lionofgod: none.
[00:20] <lionofgod> 0.o
[00:20] <lionofgod> Then how do you play flash videos?
[00:20] <pvssanjeev> I am very new to UBUNTU
[00:20] <celthunder> i dont flash is for morons and shitty web developers who cant do there job
[00:21] <lionofgod> So how do you manage to watch videos on net?
[00:21] <lionofgod> Is their other software, if so what?
[00:21] <celthunder> i dl them?
[00:21] <lionofgod> 0.o
[00:21] <lionofgod> thats inconveiniet
[00:21] <lionofgod> >.<
[00:21] <celthunder> lionofgod: use html5 then
[00:21] <violinappren> pvssanjeev: open the dashboard by clicking the ubuntu logo, search for "driver" and click on the additional  drivers application
[00:21] <lionofgod> html5 works on all sites?
[00:21] <celthunder> pvssanjeev: ctrl alt f1
[00:22] <lionofgod> how would I use it?
[00:22] <celthunder> use a browser that supports it?
[00:22] <celthunder> and if the site doesnt it isnt worth visiting probably
[00:22] <violinappren> pvssanjeev: then you will be able to install nvidia drivers, no need for the .run file
[00:22] <violinappren> pvssanjeev: and no need to switch to a terminal
[00:23] <lionofgod> Alright, I am signed up for youtube html5
[00:23] <lionofgod> I am usign chromium
[00:23] <lionofgod> How would I go about enabling chromium to use html5?
[00:23] <celthunder> it should already be enabled
[00:23] <violinappren> celthunder: you're very unfamiliar with the ubuntu environment of doing things, arch is not ubuntu, i like arch actually but ubuntu provides a lot of tools to simplify the life of gnu/linux beginners
[00:24] <andrew2> !help
[00:24] <lionofgod> violinappren: Do you have a better solution to flash blue tint problem?
[00:24] <ox1de> i still need help
[00:24] <ox1de> if anybody can help me
[00:24] <andrew2> exit
[00:24] <celthunder> violinappren: i told him check the repos first hell even arch has the proprietary drivers in repo if he didnt listen thats not on me

[00:25] <violinappren> lionofgod: no im unfamiliar with it, zykotick9?
[00:25] <woju> anyone talk about love?
[00:25] <wylde> !ot | woju
[00:25] <lionofgod> Im pretty sure he said he didnt know

[00:25] <lionofgod> w/e
[00:26] <celthunder> zykotick9: blue flash issue.. lionofgod he said it was an update
[00:26] <lionofgod> zykotick9: blue tint on flash videos, do you know of any solutionss?
[00:26] <violinappren> lionofgod:  zykotick9: are you familiar with the blue tint issue? are there well known solutions?
[00:26] <lionofgod> I've tried both Nvidia drivers thata re available
[00:26] <lionofgod> Ive reinstalled flash
[00:26] <zykotick9> lionofgod: violinappren i have no idea about the flash issue - sorry.  I'm very familiar with nvidia+XV issue, but no idea on the flash problem.
[00:26] <celthunder> violinappren: i think dropping an older so file in should work
[00:26] <celthunder> or whatever it was
[00:27] <lionofgod> violinappren: How do i enable html5 in chromium?
[00:27] <violinappren> celthunder: lionofgod: do NOT use older flash versions, they are vulnerable and they may be used to compromise your computer
[00:27] <lionofgod> Okay
[00:27] <lionofgod> how about html5?
[00:27] <celthunder> violinappren: i dont use flash at all
[00:27] <violinappren> lionofgod: on youtube? go to http://www.youtube.com/html5
[00:27] <lionofgod> I ahve it enabled on youtube
[00:27] <lionofgod> How about for browser?
[00:27] <violinappren> lionofgod: look at the bottom of the page
[00:28] <lionofgod> ?
[00:28] <synapse> Is there a free/linux app for editing PDFs?
[00:28] <lionofgod> dont see
[00:28] <zykotick9> lionofgod: nothing required for chromium, just open the youtube page, right click on the video and see if it's flash or html5
[00:28] <violinappren> lionofgod: "Join the HTML5 Trial"
[00:28] <lionofgod> Yes got it
[00:28] <lionofgod> Thank you :D
[00:28] <violinappren> lionofgod: yw

[00:28] <lionofgod> But, is their anyway to enable html5 for other video sites eg. Dailymotion?
[00:29] <lionofgod> nvm found it
[00:29] <lionofgod> Thanks a lot : D
[00:33] <Slype> Does anybody can confirm to me if "cannot reserve MMIO region" means there is not enough memory for 64-bits OS? All versions of Ubuntu 64 seem to return this message at start. I have only 3GB RAM memory.
[00:33] <woju> #ubuntu-offtopic
[00:34] <Celltech> Ok. Installed an ISO to my DumbDrive and it's not booting
[00:34] <violinappren> woju: /joint #ubuntu-offtopic
[00:34] <woju> violinappren: ok
[00:34] <woju> violinappren: thanks
[00:35] <woju> violinappren: my nglish
[00:36] <woju> my English is poor,what I should say when you say that?
[00:36] <violinappren> Slype: looks like a (re-introduced?) kernel bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/577842
[00:36] <violinappren> Slype: what ubuntu version are you using?
[00:36] <zykotick9> Slype: i have a 64bit os on my 1GB EEEpc
[00:37] <violinappren> woju: this is how you join the other channel, type this in your chat window and you can talk about other topics on that channel
[00:38] <zykotick9> violinappren: actually it's /join not /joint ;)
[00:38] <violinappren> Slype: does the system proceed to boot or gets halted after this message?
[00:38] <violinappren> zykotick9: ahaha, thanks for correcting that! sleepy typing!
[00:39] <Slype> All the reproductions I used. All the same. I remember reading somewhere about MMIO region on 64 bit structure. I'm currently using 11.10
[00:39] <zykotick9> Slype: do you have any working livecds/installs?  can you "cat /proc/cpuinfo" from somewhere?
[00:39] <Slype> Works fine. I just wonder if it could boot quickly without it, violinappren
[00:40] <zykotick9> Slype: oh, so it does boot then?  never mind my question.
[00:40] <woju> violinappren: I see it,thanks
[00:41] <violinappren> Slype: it just looks like an unsupported AMD chip, so seems harmless
[00:41] <Slype> Interesting. Thank you very much violinappren
[00:41] <violinappren> Slype: yw
[00:44] <gustavo_cm> Hi there. GParted shrunk my /home ext4 partition bud didn't update the superblock. How can I solve it? I tried fsck, but nothing.
[00:46] <Celltech> Installed 10.0 to my DumbDrive and it won't boot. iso problem? Flashdrive problem?
[00:47] <zykotick9> Celltech: did you select the ?DumbDrive to install grub to?  in 10.04 that is required.
[00:48] <Celltech> Well I used uNetBootin
[00:48] <zykotick9> Celltech: oh, you mean creating a LiveUSB - different issue, ignore me.
[00:49] <Celltech> Yeah. What room would I chat that with?
[00:49] <violinappren> gustavo_cm: may help: http://linuxexpresso.wordpress.com/2010/03/31/repair-a-broken-ext4-superblock-in-ubuntu/
[00:49] <zykotick9> Celltech: here (sorta)
[00:49] <Celltech> Ok. I don't know what's up with it. It worked fine before. I'm trying to go to Xubuntu 10.04
[00:50] <violinappren> Celltech: did you try recreating it? sometimes the thumbdrive write just ... fails
[00:51] <violinappren> Celltech: there's also "Startup Disk Creator"  an alternative to unetbootin
[00:51] <Celltech> Yeah I tried 3 times. But I will format, try again, then F my bios and see if it's in there
[00:51] <invisiblek> !mate
[00:51] <gustavo_cm> violinappren: thanks, I have already read that. Didn't help. This is more appropriate for my problem, but I use GPT instead of MBR and do not know how to procede: http://gparted-forum.surf4.info/viewtopic.php?id=14172
[00:51] <zykotick9> !msgthebot > invisiblek
[00:53] <Celltech> What's the best ntfs or FAT
[00:54] <zykotick9> Celltech: neither are POSIX compatible
[00:55] <Celltech> So how should I format the drive before I put the iso on it?
[00:55] <Freedom> hi
[00:55] <Celltech> ext 4?
[00:55] <zykotick9> Celltech: i think unetbootin requires FAT
[00:55] <violinappren> gustavo_cm: i guess the first thing would be replacing fdisk with a GPT supported tool, gdisk? i've never used GPT before
[00:56] <violinappren> Celltech: for unetbootin? use FAT
[00:56] <Celltech> Crap. So it's gotta be a bios boot problem then
[00:56] <Freedom> how i can join xchat with secure connection ?
[00:56] <gustavo_cm> violinappren: yes, I have gdisk, which has no "dump" option ;/ I didn't find anything similar
[00:56] <Celltech> Ok. Gonna try again. If something else doesn't work. I'll be back
[00:57] <zykotick9> Freedom: #freenode might have some insight on that?
[00:58] <violinappren> gustavo_cm: looks like there's a p command: http://www.rodsbooks.com/gdisk/walkthrough.html
[00:58] <gustavo_cm> violinappren: yes, but I need to dump it to a file, edit this file and use it to remake the partition table.
[00:59] <_cb> just overwrote an important file.  Is there a 'shadow' I can restore from?
[00:59] <gustavo_cm> violinappren: but thanks
[00:59] <Freedom> what #freenode means ?    i want to make my ip hidden to users on xchat
[00:59] <konsumer|zZz> How can I un-install Unity and bring back Gnome?

[01:03] <cordoval> is there a way to change wallpaper programmatically every time i generate event for writing into the file or file change event? and have it always running like a system event?
[01:03] <UnKwn> hi I have installed google earth, but it is showing everything so creepy whats the problem
[01:03] <cordoval> something like AppleScript tell application "System Events"
[01:03] <Teligard> Hi all
[01:03] <cordoval> there must be a way in ubuntu right?
[01:03] <Teligard> could someone help me get a Logitech gamepad to work in ubuntu 11.10?
[01:04] <cordoval> how wallpapers that are dynamic generated?
[01:04] <violinappren> cordoval: inotify ?
[01:04] <Teligard> Or even better yet, an xbox360 controller to work (wired)
[01:04] <pjotter1> Hi everyone
[01:04] <cordoval> inotify would do that? violinappren ?
[01:04] <elky> compiz is using a gig of resident memory :(
[01:04] <gustavo_cm> violinappren: I have no sgdisk here.
[01:05] <zykotick9> Teligard: plug one (or both in) and see if /dev/input/js0 (or js1, if you have both) appears
[01:05] <Teligard> compiz is rather resource intensive
[01:05] <violinappren> cordoval: it's an API for getting notified of file changes
[01:05] <cordoval> but upon change hmm could be hmm
[01:05] <cordoval> oh
[01:05] <elky> can i restart compiz without unity crapping out?
[01:05] <violinappren> gustavo_cm: look for a live cd that includes it?
[01:05] <iNeal> I can't SSH to my server anymore. I get "Server unexpectedly closed the connection. Is there any way I can know what's causing it?
[01:05] <gustavo_cm> violinappren: I used the "b" command on gdisk, the output is not human-readable.
[01:05] <cordoval> and i guess i have to have  a command to change wallpaper
[01:05] <zykotick9> elky: unity uses compiz - so i don't think so
[01:05] <cordoval> then
[01:05] <gustavo_cm> violinappren: it's binary ;/
[01:05] <iNeal> (I have an SSH sesstion running)
[01:06] <Teligard> zykotick9: I see js0 listed

[01:06] <xblack> any body know how rooting htc china ?
[01:06] <zykotick9> Teligard: verify that it's pointed to /dev/input/js0 - it might be /dev/js0 by default.
[01:07] <violinappren> !ot | xblack
[01:07] <gustavo_cm> violinappren: in http://gparted-forum.surf4.info/viewtopic.php?id=14172 the guy edited it and rewrote the MBR
[01:08] <cordoval> I guess now i need to know how to work with ubuntu wallpapers
[01:09] <violinappren> gustavo_cm: the -r option is of no help?
[01:09] <Teligard> going to reboot... brb
[01:10] <iNeal> elky violinappren: How do I do it from Windows (putty)? And I actually do have a SSH session running from before it stopped working; can I see any logs that could help?
[01:10] <violinappren> cordoval: probably some dbus call, get a dbus browser and pook around
[01:10] <violinappren> iNeal: #windows
[01:10] <violinappren> cordoval: poke *
[01:10] <cordoval> yes
[01:11] <cordoval> so dbus, looking into that
[01:14] <violinappren> cordoval: you dont have to use C or python for any of this
[01:14] <violinappren> cordoval: you can talk to inotify and dbus using plain old bash scripts
[01:14] <violinappren> cordoval: but python would come in handy, yeah
[01:14] <iNeal> violinappren: Does this help? http://cl.ineal.me/0H292B370y1x3l0e2X2T
[01:15] <violinappren> iNeal: did you try logging in many times with an invalid password or so?
[01:15] <violinappren> iNeal: you may have gotten blacklisted by something like fail2ban
[01:15] <iNeal> violinappren: No, but I did install denyhosts
[01:16] <violinappren> iNeal: have you tried logging in from another IP?
[01:16] <fishcooker> how to disable ctrl+alt+del
[01:16] <fishcooker> ?
[01:17] <iNeal> violinappren: Worked, it was denyhosts
[01:17] <iNeal> thanks :)
[01:17] <violinappren> iNeal: yw

[01:20] <DiabolicalGamer> Hello Everyone
[01:20] <Pur3BiOHaZaRD> Hey.
[01:20] <DiabolicalGamer> I'm attempting to setup Ubuntu 12.04 with MaaS, but I'm running into a road block.
[01:20] <teligard> zykotick9: Now to figure out where in pcsx2 to configure that.
[01:20] <Zoffix> Hey. My dad—a complete Windows n00b—say wants to learn Linux. Do you guys have any good guides tailored specifically for people like him? I know in the past Ubuntu was Windows-user friendly, not sure how much it is now, with Unity and all....
[01:21] <bazhang> !manual | Zoffix
[01:21] <violinappren> Zoffix: just install it for him and let him be :)
[01:21] <ceti331> kde is more like windows ?
[01:21] <violinappren> you may be surprised
[01:21] <bazhang> !12.04 | DiabolicalGamer
[01:21] <teligard> Zoffix: your dad has good taste.
[01:21] <DiabolicalGamer> Whenever I boot a node I get this "init: cloud-init-nonet main process (256) killed by TERM signal"
[01:21] <Zoffix> violinappren, I really want to just give him a CD and let him figure it all out by himself ^__^
[01:22] <bazhang> DiabolicalGamer, read the bots message    #ubuntu+1 for that
[01:22] <violinappren> Zoffix: way to go!
[01:22] <DiabolicalGamer> okay
[01:22] <bobweaver> Why are all freaking examples of gnu make in c or c++ I just what to learn the dang syntax not c or c++ I thought that it was used for way more then just c and c++ . If anyone knows of links that I can read that Dont use c or c++ that would be super duper cool. Here is what I am doing http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1960641    I am packaging this package for Ubuntu thanks
[01:22] <Zoffix> teligard, well, 10 years ago he actually condemned Linux and told me that no one in the world would ever write good software for free. I wonder what changed his mind lol :)
[01:22] <violinappren> Zoffix: unleash he's inner gnu/penguin :)
[01:22] <Zoffix> :D
[01:23] <violinappren> Zoffix: usually this kind of people end up sending patches and writing docs :)
[01:23] <Zoffix> lmao
[01:23] <teligard> Zoffix: Windblows ;)  They don't write good software adn DO get paid for it
[01:24] <Zoffix> So true.
[01:24] <Zoffix> Well, thanks for the link. Have a good night!
[01:26] <zykotick9> teligard: sorry, i've never used pcsx2 before... no idea
[01:26] <violinappren> bobweaver: seems to me like you just need a bash script with functions
[01:26] <fishcooker> thanks for quick response violinappren
[01:26] <violinappren> bobweaver: make is a "build" tool, that's why c/c++ is all over the place :)
[01:26] <violinappren> fishcooker: np
[01:26] <teligard> zykotick9: no prob.  I'm in efnet on the support page seeing if I can get some info
[01:26] <bobweaver> yeah but I need to have a make file so that I can make into .deb
[01:26] <MyNickWasTaken> Hello. I need a little bit of help
[01:27] <ceti331> make can theoretically be used for building anything
[01:27] <DiabolicalGamer> The #ubuntu+1 channel is bloody empty.
[01:27] <teligard> zykotick9: but thanks :-)  I really do appreciate it.  Atleast I know ubuntu recognizes the controller.
[01:27] <bazhang> DiabolicalGamer, be patient
[01:27] <violinappren> !ask | MyNickWasTaken
[01:27] <MyNickWasTaken> !patience
[01:27] <violinappren> ceti331: use the right tool for the job and you won't suffer so much :)
[01:27] <bobweaver> The whole point of making the make file is to make a .deb not so end user can then install from repo
[01:28] <fishcooker> btw is it possible to change the combination of buttons? violinapppren
[01:28] <violinappren> fishcooker: consult the upstart manual, but i think, yes
[01:28] <ceti331> make is a dependancy graph manager which just happens to have some shortcuts built in for c/c++ build tools
[01:29] <ceti331> it could be used for compiling resources
[01:29] <bobweaver> yup like my upsource
[01:29] <thomedy> do i need  a server version of ubuntu or can i use reg 11.01
[01:29] <violinappren> make is arcane, fragile and very outdated
[01:29] <thomedy> if i want to push my lampp install out live
[01:30] <ceti331> whats the best replacement
[01:30] <fishcooker> where is the upstart manual?
[01:30] <violinappren> (speaking from a developer's point of view, of course it has a significant value in the unix eco system)
[01:30] <fishcooker> violinappren
[01:30] <ceti331> i generally either use make or IDE
[01:30] <bobweaver> !dmz | thomedy
[01:30] <ceti331> qmake ? cmake ? jam ? any others?
[01:30] <mpe> waf
[01:30] <mpe> rake
[01:30] <Guest7063> Hey.  I have a problem with Ubuntu recognizing my joystick.
[01:31] <violinappren> ceti331: as far as your example goes, you dont need any, just a bash script
[01:31] <thomedy> what is dmz
[01:31] <violinappren> fishcooker: ?
[01:31] <bobweaver> thomedy,  you should google if you want to push a server live
[01:31] <ceti331> compiling resources might have the same property as programs, i.e. dependancy graphs
[01:32] <Laice> anyone any good with sshd
[01:32] <Laice> tried ubuntu-server but they're all asleep :P
[01:32] <chris__> Hey.  I'm having problems with Ubuntu recognizing my joystick.
[01:32] <bobweaver> kinda Laice
[01:32] <thomedy> i am i thought i might ask here too
[01:32] <chris__> The device doesn't even show up.
[01:32] <fishcooker> where is the upstart manual?
[01:32] <Laice> everytime we seed a keepalive in sshd_config we get connection refused
[01:32] <chris__> The weirdest part is that it was working just yesterday.
[01:32] <violinappren> ceti331: but not anywhere near  the complexity and sophistication required
[01:32] <cordoval> php guys
[01:33] <cordoval> not python
[01:33] <ceti331> is it possible to get linux machiens on a LAN to drag-drop files across the network in the GUI (nautilus?)
[01:33] <ceti331> q2 is that possible between linux & mac
[01:33] <violinappren> fishcooker: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/
[01:33] <MyNickWasTaken> Alright. So, I've been trying to do a minimal installation of Ubuntu 11.10. I made a liveCD and booted into it, and began the installation. I selected my location and detected my keyboard layout and all. I then got to the network configuration stage. I have an ethernet cable plugged in, so it worked fine. I moved on to the next step. It asked me for a hostname. I gave it one, and it cut to a
[01:33] <MyNickWasTaken> purple screen and just froze there. I waited for nearly an hour, and it was still on the purple screen. I rebooted and tried again. I did my location and configured the network, and then gave it my hostname. This time it got through. It asked me what mirror I wanted and I told it the standard US one. It asked me if I needed a proxy and I said no. It then cut to the purple screen again and froze.
[01:33] <MyNickWasTaken> Does anyone know how to solve this? By the way the PC Is a Dell Inspiron 1720, 32 bit.
[01:33] <FloodBot1> MyNickWasTaken: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:34] <fishcooker> thanks
[01:34] <fishcooker> what a long.. long story
[01:35] <fishcooker> violinappren :D
[01:35] <violinappren> MyNickWasTaken: alt+ctrl+f3 should show you the installation log (and associated errors)
[01:36] <MyNickWasTaken> violinappren: alright I may try that
[01:36] <violinappren> fishcooker: such is life :)
[01:36] <MyNickWasTaken> Thanks
[01:36] <konsumerr> got answer from google lol
[01:36] <MyNickWasTaken> I doubt that.
[01:36] <MyNickWasTaken> I looked for a while
[01:36] <sacarlson> MyNickWasTaken: funny I had that same problem with mini.iso  for version 10.04  when I used virtualbox  but when I tried a real box it worked
[01:36] <MyNickWasTaken> Hah
[01:37] <MyNickWasTaken> I tried it in VB and it did the same thing
[01:37] <MyNickWasTaken> I thought "oh, I'll just go for it"
[01:37] <shadykhan> installed 12.04
[01:37] <MyNickWasTaken> Sure enough, it didn't work. Here is the pastebin of my whole shpiel if anyone needs it. http://paste.ubuntu.com/934837/
[01:37] <shadykhan> picked a default background updating my background dissapeared
[01:37] <shadykhan> fantastic lol
[01:37] <sacarlson> MyNickWasTaken: try ctl f2 and get a new console and see what errors are found in /var/log/syslog
[01:37] <chris__> Ubuntu won't recognize the joystick I have connected to it.
[01:38] <bobweaver> Laice, chris__ does lsusb    see it if it is use that is
[01:38] <bobweaver> chris__ ^^ only sorry Laice
[01:39] <Laice> o.O
[01:39] <sacarlson> MyNickWasTaken: I had a different problem when I tried mini.iso 12.04
[01:39] <Laice> damnit
[01:39] <Laice> i had a glimmer of hope then
[01:39] <Laice> lol
[01:39] <MyNickWasTaken> Oh and just another thing to note, now the ethernet doesn't work.
[01:39] <MyNickWasTaken> Now it goes to detecting DHCP.
[01:39] <chris__> It doesn't even show up as a device.
[01:40] <cornfeed> how can i update a running system to reflect the changes made in /etc/resolv.conf
[01:40] <cornfeed> ?
[01:40] <murder> hello, how can I make tcpdump show myself connecting to a localhost ipv6 inside my network?
[01:40] <murder> it seems its only showing external connections
[01:40] <MyNickWasTaken> Well
[01:40] <MyNickWasTaken> I guess I'll try the Ctrl Alt F3 stuff
[01:41] <MyNickWasTaken> Thanks guys, I may be back ;)
[01:41] <carmelo> hello
[01:42] <Guest25082> hello

[01:42] <Hieberrr> I just installed the latest 12.04, but I can't seem to be able to rearrange the lenses nor snap my windows to the edges.
[01:42] <Hieberrr> I also can't seem to download the  ATI/AMD drivers through the "Additional Drivers", because it always fails.
[01:42] <Guest25082> so do i
[01:42] <Hieberrr> Any help is appreciated.
[01:42] <FloodBot1> Hieberrr: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[01:43] <Hieberrr> Any help though?
[01:43] <Guest25082> how do i run windows applications on ubuntu
[01:43] <Guest25082> ??
[01:44] <kamilnadeem> HI
[01:45] <kamilnadeem> If one is running Beta 2 of 12.04 so he will automatically be updated to Releases Candidate right?
[01:45] <dlentz> !final | kamilnadeem
[01:46] <Hieberrr> How come I can't re-organize my lenses or snap my windows to the edges?
[01:46] <kamilnadeem> I just saw RC ISO's are out so came by to ask
[01:46] <kamilnadeem> dlentz, thanks
[01:46] <metaspike> Guest25082, you either install wine or run a virtual machine, or just use windows. :)
[01:47] <dlentz> Hieberrr, use #ubuntu+1 for precise issues
[01:47] <Hieberrr> @dientz alright, thanks

[01:53] <DrManhattan> does 11.10 use a 2.6 kernel or is it on 3 now?
[01:54] <trism> DrManhattan: 3.0
[01:56] <DrManhattan> well, fecal matter then. I guess linux is out on the spare box.
[01:57] <DrManhattan> I realize that the "solution" is to register and verify and then fill out an extensive bug report detailing these issues, I am not sure I am mentally up to it right now
[01:57] <trism> DrManhattan: 10.04 only has 2.6.32
[01:58] <DrManhattan> well. that just blows.
[01:58] <fishcooker> violinappren .. recently i've problem with asus battery... is ther any option to disable overwhelming feature on my nvidia gt520m
[01:58] <fishcooker> asus devoted that windows 7 is the best option for the user...  the battery going down quickly
[01:59] <kanliot> what's the difference between doing an apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade.... .and doing an upgrade in update manager?  (i'm running precise)
[01:59] <DrManhattan> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/208012  <--- this is essentially the fix
[02:00] <negative> kanliot: update "updates" the list and "upgrade" installs the updates
[02:00] <DrManhattan> is there any kind of backwards compatibility with 2.6 as far as compiling modules?
[02:00] <negative> kanliot: to be clearer, the list of packages that have available updates is refreshed with the "update" command

[02:01] <negative> kanliot: upgrade actually installs the package updates
[02:02] <shadykhan> if windows has the hosts file where i can redirect websites to go wherever whats the equivalent of this in ubuntu?
[02:03] <kanliot> negative, so upgrade manager application does the exact same thing as "apt -get upgrade" ?
[02:03] <DrManhattan> is there any kind of backwards compatibility with 2.6 as far as compiling modules?
[02:03] <fishcooker> is there any process explorer that can kill spesific process via gui

[02:05] <jafo> I have a 64-bit 12.04 beta system that I'm trying to install the AT&T VPN client (a 32-bit app) and it needs libssl and libcrypto, but those don't exist in /lib32.  "apt-cache search" doesn't show an obvious package to get a 32-bit version of that.  ia32-libs is installed, but doesn't seem to provide this like it used to.  Any pointers?  My google searches aren't turning up anything.
[02:05] <jafo> voortuck: j0

[02:21] <cordoval> hmm
[02:21] <cordoval> is this unity then
[02:21] <cordoval> it just did something
[02:21] <cordoval> but not sure if it is correct

[02:22] <yeik> thats possible
[02:41] <l3d> whats the name that 10.10 uses as in 11.10 uses unity?
[02:42] <yeik> gnome?
[02:42] <zykotick9> l3d: 10.10 ubuntu used gnome2 by default
[02:43] <l3d> ok so can I install gnome2 on 11.10
[02:43] <zykotick9> l3d: no, gnome2 is no longer developed
[02:44] <yeik> l3d, try xfce i like it
[02:44] <l3d> not my cup of tea
[02:45] <yeik> i think its the closest to gnome2 still under support
[02:45] <l3d> well i will have to just stick with 10.10
[02:46] <Fyodorovna> !10.10
[02:46] <xangua> l3d: neither supported
[02:46] <l3d> i know
[02:46] <zykotick9> l3d: running an unsupported ubuntu is NOT a good idea...

[02:48] <yeik> l3d, there are lots of graphical interfaces you can use.

[02:52] <xangua> vishaltelangre: neither askubuntu should be used to post issues with develpment releases
[02:52] <cordoval> this worked nicely ~ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri file:///home/cordoval/Pictures/Selection_005.jpg
[02:53] <zykotick9> jrib: no it has 2 meaning in computing - an ubuntu qualifies for neither.
[02:53] <cordoval> now i guess I need to hook this command line with inotify right?
[02:53] <jrib> zykotick9: ok.
[02:53] <yeik> more stable than windows
[02:53] <vishaltelangre> xangua: so where do I ask that question, on #ubuntu+1, eh?
[02:54] <zykotick9> vishaltelangre: correct, 12.04 prior to release gets support only in #ubuntu+1
[02:55] <vishaltelangre> zykotick9, xangua: Okay thank you both. I'm asking same question over there.
[02:55] <cordoval> how to tell if it is OSX or ubuntu? i need to discriminate this on php
[03:02] <Nach0z> cordoval: http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.php-uname.php
[03:03] <shadykhan> i need some help setting up phpmyadmin
[03:03] <shadykhan> well its setup but when i go to localhost/phpmyadmin it prompts me for user/password
[03:03] <shadykhan> which i dont have and i dont remember setting one up
[03:04] <the1_> shadykhan: its asking for MySQL user/pass
[03:04] <yeik> you might have to remove it and reinstall it
[03:05] <shadykhan> the1_,  sinceim doing it locally i usually leave my MySQl user root and i dont put anything for a password
[03:05] <zykotick9> shadykhan: try to use admin with no password to login
[03:05] <zykotick9> shadykhan: taken from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/phpMyAdmin
[03:06] <shadykhan> if i dont put in a password i get an error saying 'Login without a password is forbidden by configuration (see AllowNoPassword);
[03:06] <shadykhan> zykotick9,  ill check it out thanks
[03:06] <the1_> shadykhan: create another mysql user with password and login as that user
[03:13] <darbe> I have upgrade problem http://paste.ubuntu.com/934917/
[03:15] <darbe> any idea?
[03:16] <zykotick9> darbe: what have you changed with your repos exactly?
[03:16] <darbe> zykotick9: I really don't know
[03:16] <zykotick9> darbe: i see, well good luck.
[03:17] <darbe> zykotick9: thanks
[03:17] <darbe> You have some obsolete package versions installed. Please upgrade the following packages and check if the problem still occurs:
[03:17] <darbe> gcc-4.6-base, libc-bin, libc6, libgcc1, libglib2.0-0, libstdc++6, multiarch-support, upstart
[03:18] <zykotick9> darbe: i'd be concerned with the line "1352 not fully installed or removed."
[03:18] <darbe> zykotick9: accually i have main error.
[03:21] <jayar> i have /etc/network/interfaces set to static, but somehow it still gets a new address randomly
[03:21] <paq7512> what is a recommended program to use with an ipod?
[03:21] <darbe> any idea? http://paste.ubuntu.com/934917/
[03:22] <zykotick9> jayar: can you pastebin your interfaces file?
[03:27] <theseb> what causes volume control on ubuntu to stop working?
[03:27] <theseb> audio still works fine
[03:28] <zykotick9> theseb: did you try to remove pulse by chance?
[03:28] <n-iCe> Hello, how can I optimize ubuntu? I have a dell mini inspiron 1018 laptop, 1GB ram 160GB disk, I installed 11.10 what can I do to make it faster?
[03:28] <UbuntuBoy> What software license should one use for his/hers free non-open source software?
[03:28] <theseb> (i'm referring to the volume control on the keyboard)
[03:28] <theseb> zykotick9: no
[03:28] <yeik> n-iCe, use lxde or xfce instead of unity
[03:28] <theseb> UbuntuBoy: what do you mean "free non open source"
[03:28] <sacarlson> wow my mini.iso install of ubuntu 10.04 is working today from virtualbox, so I think my problem was just the repositories,  but I tried like 4 different repositories so I assumed it wasn't
[03:28] <zykotick9> theseb: k, just checkin'
[03:29] <n-iCe> yeik: does not have gnome anymore?
[03:29] <UbuntuBoy> Free sofware, that can be shared etc.
[03:29] <UbuntuBoy> But you don't get the source code.
[03:29] <yeik> gnome3 is the latest version, but you asked what you can do to make it faster.
[03:29] <theseb> zykotick9: i've noticed ssh-agent and volume buttons will both die on ubuntu for some reason
[03:29] <UbuntuBoy> Freeware?
[03:29] <yeik> UbuntuBoy, thats freeware.
[03:29] <n-iCe> yeik: I installes lubuntu, but it does not have the same kernel or files than 11.10 unity, I have a wireless card not working in lubuntu and in 11.10 works awesome
[03:30] <jayar> yea gimie a min, im talkin to someone zykotick
[03:30] <UbuntuBoy> Yeah, I know.
[03:30] <yeik> n-iCe, what version of lubuntu?
[03:30] <theseb> UbuntuBoy: it is hard to get anyone to care about your software...you're better off releasing source code and praying anyone cares enough to pay attention to it
[03:30] <n-iCe> yeik: 11.10
[03:30] <yeik> n-iCe, you can always install lxde or xfce from ubuntu 11.10 install
[03:31] <theseb> UbuntuBoy: the truth is the internet has a mountain of free open source stuff....why is your pet project going to make anyone take notice?
[03:31] <UbuntuBoy> Yes, I do that for most of my stuff... But for this I kind of don't want to.
[03:31] <zykotick9> !tab > jayar
[03:31] <yeik> n-iCe, http://www.techiesmarts.com/2011/11/installing-lxde-in-ubuntu-1110.html
[03:31] <xangua> !ot | UbuntuBoy theseb
[03:31] <UbuntuBoy> Sorry.
[03:31] <n-iCe> yeik: will not removing effects help me?
[03:32] <yeik> n-iCe, usually when you install, it will turn on as many features as it thinks your computer can handle. the best way to get it faster is a different desktop manager
[03:33] <yeik> n-iCe, if you want to continue to use unity, then i am sure there are things you could try and turn off. not sure how well it will work or what the effects will be. I don't use unity
[03:34] <sacarlson> I wonder what I will have to add to my local repository of ubuntu 10.04 to get it to install without missing some kernel package?
[03:35] <yeik> sacarlson, to install what?
[03:35] <sacarlson> yeik: the repository has the contents of ubuntu 10.04 alternate cd
[03:35] <sacarlson> yeik: just a server to start
[03:36] <Skeletor> hey, is it possible to take ownership of a process running under your uid?
[03:36] <yeik> sacarlson, you looked at roll your own linux?
[03:36] <yeik> Skeletor, what do you mean? if its running under your account, then you do own it.
[03:36] <sacarlson> yeik: no just a mini.iso install of ubuntu 10.04 from a local repository later turn it to pxe
[03:37] <Skeletor> yeik, i have a startup script that runs as root and then setuid()'s to my normal user when its done doing superuser actions (so i can control it)
[03:37] <yeik> sacarlson, why do you need a local repository then? if its just going to be a bootable iso, just build it, and then that should be good.
[03:37] <Skeletor> the script is chmodded suid
[03:38] <Skeletor> the issue is, root still owns the process as evidenced in /proc/[thepid]/
[03:38] <Skeletor> when i look at ps aux, its running as me
[03:38] <yeik> Skeletor,  you just said it was running under your uid, you didn't say root was running it. and what are you trying to do exactly?
[03:39] <enroxorz> heroku addons:remove cloudant:oxygen
[03:39] <enroxorz> sorry
[03:40] <Skeletor> yeik: that is exactly what im trying to do. my suid program is setuid(my uid), and in ps aux i see that i am in fact running the process. but the files in /proc/[thepid] all belong to root
[03:40] <yeik> Skeletor, what is the process, the script? is it just an interactive shell you want to be able to attach to? a gui program that spawns and you can't see?
[03:41] <Skeletor> yeik: its just a program that sleeps all the time. there really is no function. im trying to grasp suid.
[03:42] <Skeletor> yeik: i just dont understand how i cant control a process running under my user if its invoked by root
[03:42] <yeik> maybe it doesn't set euid
[03:43] <Skeletor> perhaps, let me try that out too
[03:45] <Skeletor> yeik: tried it out with some quick python. os.seteuid(1000). the process is still owned by root in /proc/ even though im running it according to ps
[03:47]  * yeik doesn't know much about how /proc/ works 
[03:47] <roasted> hello!
[03:47] <cordoval> I have it now but the problem is that ubuntu will not take png as wallpapers
[03:47] <cordoval> only jpgs
[03:47] <cordoval> what to do?
[03:48] <axisys> how do I get ri / rdoc / ruby doc in ubuntu ?
[03:48] <Skeletor> yeik, yeah i think ill need to look more into permissions of a process, proc, and setuid
[03:48] <axisys> ri File gets nothing ..
[03:48] <Skeletor> yeik, the funny thing is, /proc/ is where ps gets its information from >.< i straced it
[03:49] <yeik> Skeletor, the question is, why do you need to do it, your script you say does nothing
[03:49] <yeik> trying to change the ownership of a program running, i think, is a security risk.
[03:50] <Skeletor> im understanding the concept of suid
[03:50] <Skeletor> also its a necessary risk for programs like su
[03:51] <yeik> i don't think su changes the ownership of a process, but creates a new process as a different user
[03:51] <yeik> thats why you can exit in a bash, and go back to your user before su
[03:53] <Skeletor> correct but su itself is suid(0). su was a bad example because it indeed creates a new process. but programs like crontab for example suid(0) without a new process
[03:53] <cordoval> grr why it would work for jpgs but not for pngs?
[03:54] <cordoval> gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-options
[03:54] <yeik> cordoval, with a gui, can you set a desktop as a png?
[03:54] <cordoval> hmm
[03:54] <yeik> Skeletor, are you sure that is how crontab works?
[03:54] <cordoval> yeik: but what is wrong then
[03:54] <cordoval> how to check
[03:55] <yeik> cordoval, can you set a png as a desktop wallpaper?
[03:55] <cordoval> i am doing cli
[03:56] <cordoval> yes i can
[03:56] <cordoval> with the gui
[03:56] <cordoval> but this is with cli
[03:56] <yeik> cordoval, yeah, but for testing, you might need to see if you can even use that image as a wallpaper image. if you can without doing it cli then you know its not the file, or type.
[03:56] <cordoval> i can
[03:56] <yeik> cordoval, ok.
[03:57] <cordoval> maybe it expects a file:/// format of uri?
[03:57] <cordoval> because i am passing like 'gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri /home/cordoval/sites-2/sismo/src/Sismo/Contrib/.wallpaperNotifier/even-background.png
[03:57] <Skeletor> yeik, crontab by itself only instructs cron. ping is another example of a program escallating itself to root. the question really is, how does a process suid back down so the normal user can control it
[03:58] <zykotick9> cordoval: if you are looking for a way to set Xorg's wallpaper from terminal or script, you might want to check out/test "feh"
[03:58] <zykotick9> !info feh
[03:58] <cordoval> no
[03:58] <cordoval> don't send me to a lib
[03:58] <yeik> Skeletor, you can control a root process. or else you would never be able to do upgrades.
[03:58] <cordoval> this is simple usage of 'gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri /home/cordoval/sites-2/sismo/src/Sismo/Contrib/.wallpaperNotifier/even-background.png
[03:59] <cordoval> yeah i know now
[03:59] <Skeletor> indeed but thats still suid 'up' to root. revoking said privileges seems to be the gap here
[03:59] <cordoval> it is the file:/// format in front
[03:59] <cordoval> thanks guys
[03:59] <cordoval> ubuntu rocks
[04:00] <axisys> works now .. gem install rdoc-data was needed .. or ubuntu's own ri1.8 File works too
[04:00] <sacarlson> seems my problem may not be in my local repository as I get this from mini.iso from us. repository  [!] install the base system no installable kernel was found in the defined APT sources.
[04:01] <sacarlson> for install of ubuntu 10.04
[04:01] <wolfric> is it considered a bug if if-down/ scripts don't get called when the network goes down because it was suspended?
[04:02] <sacarlson> wolfric: suspended?  what is that?
[04:03] <yeik> you mean bg a process? or actually suspended?
[04:03] <sacarlson> wolfric: like hybernate?
[04:03] <roasted> Question - so, what if you have a scanner, xsane and simple scan doesn't work, and HPLIP doesn't support it? How on earth can I get it working? HP 5400c....
[04:03] <wolfric> sacarlson: yes... but suspended...
[04:03] <wolfric> actual suspension
[04:03] <wolfric> /etc/network/if-down.d scripts aren't called
[04:04] <yeik> wolfric, if the computer is suspended it is essentially turned off
[04:04] <wolfric> ...
[04:04] <yeik> you can use WOL to wake it up, if its configured.
[04:05] <wolfric> i don't mean to sound rude but why are you telling me this?
[04:05] <yeik> wolfric, you asked if its a bug if a script doesn't run when it is suspended
[04:05] <sacarlson> wolfric: my guess it's a bug, I've never got hybernate or suspend to work
[04:05] <jayar> zykotick9: http://pastebin.com/NWv89MK8
[04:06] <wolfric> yeik: right... and you figured you'd instead tell me what suspend was and tell me about another unrelated feature that i neve asked about?
[04:06] <wolfric> sorry i take that back i should have said that nicer
[04:06] <bcardarella> How do I search aptitude for a package?
[04:06] <yeik> wolfric, if something is turned off, it isn't going to run a processes. that isn't how it works. if you want a script to run, WOL will wake up the computer so it can be run.
[04:06] <wolfric> sacarlson: any idea which category i should report it to?
[04:07] <zykotick9> jayar: looks good to me, sorry - i've got nothin'.  Good luck.
[04:07] <wolfric> yeik: i don't think you understand the question don't worry about it though
[04:07] <jayar> heh thnx anyway
[04:08] <yeik> wolfric, apparently I don't understand your question. That is why we were trying to get clarification.
[04:08] <sacarlson> wolfric: no I don't know.  but if you report it give them as much info as posible
[04:08] <wolfric> yeik: /etc/network/if-down.d are scripts that are run when the network goes down (similar scripts when the network is brought back up). upon suspension, the network goes down therefore these scripts should be run before that happens
[04:08] <dackyshawn> hopefully someone here can help me....  I have a ubuntu server (10.10) set up acting as my router (dhcp server, iptables, dns, etc).  I am wanting to use a service called Mullvad (which is a VPN service) they have a linux client (really just openvpn). I am wanting to set it up so that i have openvpn installed on my ubuntu server and i want all my client computers to be routed over the tunnel if that makes any sense
[04:08] <wolfric> yeik: sacarlson understands it
[04:09] <axisys> File.readlines('/tmp/input').each how do I add the filename as an argument ?
[04:09] <HorizonXP> how far along is 12.04?
[04:09] <axisys> HorizonXP: 26th I think
[04:09] <sacarlson> wolfric: yeik: well I havn't witnessed your problem as my system fails to come back alive at all, but I assumed it was a config error on my part
[04:10] <zykotick9> !schedule | HorizonXP
[04:10] <HorizonXP> axisys: i need to put together a demo of my software for a client... trying to decide between 11.10 or 12.04
[04:10] <yeik> wolfric, http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=619866 that?
[04:10] <HorizonXP> zykotick9: thanks :)
[04:10] <axisys> 12.04 LTS I think would be better
[04:11] <wolfric> yeik: no
[04:11] <HorizonXP> axisys: agreed, but demo's friday, which is why i questioned
[04:11] <HorizonXP> 12.04 is what will eventually go on there for sure.
[04:11] <n-iCe> hello, how do I remove the complete and all the desktop packages to install xfce
[04:11] <axisys> HorizonXP: i see. it wont really matter then..
[04:12] <sacarlson> wolfric: yeik: well if it fails to work even if it is run then it must be pointless to run it after suspend
[04:12] <paulus68> HorizonXP: install the beta for the demo and install the final version when it's available
[04:12] <irreverant> I have a question about 11.10 and Gwibber, how the hell do I turn this thing off and remove my facebook from it?
[04:12] <HorizonXP> axisys: no it won't, just trying to make my life as painless as possible here
[04:13] <HorizonXP> paulus68: that's what i was thinking, just wanted to be sure before I went ahead :)
[04:13] <zykotick9> !final | HorizonXP
[04:13] <yeik> sacarlson, wolfric, was trying to say it looks like that is a bug already reported for what wolfric was describing, he told me it isn't the same thing.
[04:13] <paulus68> HorizonXP: or you do a demo with both (in vm ware then you can explain the differences and why they should take the 12.04
[04:14] <zykotick9> paulus68: i didn't think vmware supported Unity/compiz?
[04:14] <HorizonXP> really not an issue
[04:15] <yeik> sacarlson, i never seem to get suspension to work properly, but i don't bother anymore. my laptop has an ssd and boots in no time.
[04:15] <HorizonXP> this is IPTV stuff, the video will be fullscreen
[04:15] <HorizonXP> ubuntu's in the background, it'll never be seen realy
[04:15] <HorizonXP> the concern was more about easing my workload
[04:15] <paulus68> zykotick9: true but if Horizon runs an windows pc and wants to do a demo he can use vmware or virtualbox
[04:15] <irreverant> VMware supports unity on ubuntu
[04:15] <sacarlson> yeik: I don't bother eather I just run 24/7 only reboot one time every 40 days or so
[04:16] <HorizonXP> i'm actually in ubuntu in vmware right now
[04:16] <yeik> sacarlson, yeah, most of my computers are the same way, thats why all my others are on ups. and this one is on battery.
[04:16] <HorizonXP> i have windows as my host os for games
[04:16] <sacarlson> yeik: but it would be nice if they got it to work someday
[04:17] <paulus68> HorizonXP: a lucky guess from my side :p
[04:17] <yeik> sacarlson, yeah for most people. ALthough i think it does somewhat work, as i have let my battery run low a few times, and it does some sort of shutdown. but the light still flashes.
[04:17] <yeik> seems like it is hit and miss. but I don't really test it because its not critical for me.
[04:17] <HorizonXP> paulus68: :P I've had Ubuntu as my host os since 2004, i had to switch back for my fix :)
[04:18] <HorizonXP> paulus68: all of my dev work is in ubuntu
[04:18] <irreverant> HorizonXP: yeah i'm running Ubuntu in a virtual box.
[04:18] <yeik> HorizonXP, virtualbox can boot a physical hard drive, so when i game, i reboot into windows and use virtualbox to boot the secondary drive, then reboot back into linux when im done gaming.
[04:19] <HorizonXP> yeik: i used to do that, worked pretty well
[04:20] <sacarlson> yeik: wow cool I didn't know you could use virtualbox on real disks,  then you can stay synced when you boot to real
[04:20] <yeik> HorizonXP, only problem is needing to change xconfig. but yeah, it is pretty nice. but i have a pretty beefy box, 12 gb ram so i can run it like its nothing.
[04:21] <yeik> sacarlson, yeah. for that box, it is the same disk so no syncing, just booting up virtually vs physically.
[04:21] <yeik> I thought drivers would be a pita for a few things, like the graphics, and it might scream about missing GB of ram, but it doesn't.
[04:22] <sacarlson> yeik: I guess it won't be long or maybe already that virtualbox will let you use your gpu then to render?
[04:22] <HorizonXP> yeik: i need to upgrade my box bad... i was hoping to hold out for haswell, but we'll see.
[04:22] <HorizonXP> i'm on 8gb ram right now
[04:22] <yeik> thats still good, my server box is 6 gb
[04:22] <HorizonXP> not bad, but it can struggle at times... especially with a Xeon X3350 CPU
[04:23] <HorizonXP> lol
[04:23] <HorizonXP> my server's 512MB
[04:23] <irreverant> yei: what's the benefit of that over dual booting?
[04:23] <yeik> i just use my old core 2 quad q6600 as my server box
[04:23] <irreverant> yeik: or installing ubuntu as a folder on windows?
[04:23] <yeik> irreverant, you can have access to your linux files while inside windows.
[04:24] <irreverant> OK, so then why not just install ubuntu as a windows app using the install process for a folder on a windows drive?
[04:25] <yeik> irreverant, i prefer linux over windows, and if i am writing something that might take a lot of resources i can boot up into linux and run what i need to that way with full resources
[04:25] <yeik> irreverant, i haven't booted to windows in months. probably should to update, then it will be up for a month or two, before i reboot back to linux.
[04:25] <HorizonXP> yeik: my server "box" is a slice, so i'm sure the CPU's decent
[04:25] <yeik> if i could boot windows inside virtualbox without it wanting to think its a different os and reinstall everything, i would do it.
[04:26] <yeik> HorizonXP, nice.
[04:28] <yeik> my newest box, i want to upgrade the ram, ddr3 is going so cheap now. core i7 is still pretty decent cpu.
[04:28] <HorizonXP> DDR3 is stupid cheap now
[04:29]  * yeik nods
[04:29] <HorizonXP> my next box will have either 16 or 32GB
[04:29] <yeik> two 8 gb sticks for $89
[04:29] <HorizonXP> virtualize all the things!
[04:29] <backbox> ello
[04:29] <yeik> I can't wait until you can carry around a usb stick that has your os, plug it in to a machine and it will load everything up exactly as you had it.
[04:30] <yeik> almost there! i have the most awesome bootable usb drive, for windows support.

[04:34] <paulus68> yeik: same here, however I need to have windows at home to and I really need to get some time from my wife :p in order to reinstall everything and virtualise everything with vmware. secondly in win7 you can create a vhd from which you can boot
[04:34] <roasted> zykotick9: er, what? It does work?
[04:34] <lwizardl> hmm ok this is weird, i just loaded a 11.04 32bit livecd on this machine and its asking me for the user and password. and only thing that is displaying is "Other..."
[04:34] <irreverant> With all this virtualization, how does Wine fit into the environment?
[04:34] <lwizardl> anyone know what I have to put there ? LOL
[04:35] <zykotick9> roasted: well, it seems to?
[04:35] <paulus68> yeik: as off win7 pro or ultimate
[04:35] <roasted> zykotick9: both simple scan and xsane yell at me. :(
[04:35] <roasted> zykotick9: granted, I'm on 12.04, but I wouldn't expect that to tank a scanner from working
[04:35] <zykotick9> roasted: so, you should be asking in #ubuntu+1 then
[04:35] <paulus68> roasted you have to treat your computer nicely ;)
[04:36] <roasted> zykotick9: been there, no dice.
[04:36] <roasted> paulus68: I sing to it every night bro. :(
[04:36] <paulus68> roasted: parently you sing false :p
[04:36] <roasted> paulus68: evidently so :P
[04:39] <yeik> paulus68, yeah, you can do that.
[04:42] <backbox> how to get broadcom ...because after i use terminal sudo apt-ger install firmware-b43-installer   ...just show 2newly installer..then i [y] ....got abort
[04:42] <paulus68> yeik: you create a vhd inside this vhd you create a vmware with everything in vmware and you are good to go lol
[04:42] <paulus68> !broadcom |backbox
[04:43] <bcardarella> Is there a mailing list for the ec2 Ubuntu images? Specifically I need to bug someone about: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+package/linux-image-2.6.32-343-ec2
[04:45]  * DrManhattan is still really stoked to have gotten WOL going
[04:46] <DrManhattan> I wonder why they dont just integrate the code from the realtek driver into the kernel instead of whatever is in there
[04:46] <lwizardl> whats the default username and password for the live cd's ?
[04:46] <lwizardl> for some reason i keep getting asked on this machine
[04:47] <zykotick9> lwizardl: try ubuntu/ubuntu or ubuntu/NOPASSWORD
[04:48] <lwizardl> ubuntu/NOPASSWORD it was
[04:48] <lwizardl> thanks
[04:55] <lwizardl> okay seems 11.04 hates this machine even the xubuntu livecd (ubuntu & xubuntu livecd tested) just seem to go back to the login screen
[05:00] <kbanman_> How can I specify a remote CUPS printer using lpr (command line)
[05:04] <wolfric> sacarlson: just a heads up, not a bug after all, some embarasing mistakes on my part
[05:05] <CellTech> I use linux. My friend uses PC (crap) and we need to transfer a couple .exe's to his computer. How can I do that. My flash drive won't allow it
[05:05] <lwizardl> CellTech, simple use the original cloud computing....email
[05:05] <lwizardl> LOL
[05:06] <CellTech> That's the issue. Their network card isn't working so we downloaded the drivers for it
[05:06] <lwizardl> CellTech, ah ok and your usb thumbdrive wont work, maybe due to drivers again.
[05:07] <CellTech> Well. I put the exe on my thumb drive. Plug it into their computer. The files don't show up. But when I plug the drive back into my linux machine. It shows up
[05:07] <CellTech> The thumb drive shows up. Just not the files
[05:07] <lwizardl> did you safely remove the drive, or just unplug it
[05:07] <jblp> CellTech,  What file system is your drived formated with?
[05:08] <jblp> Better double check  that
[05:08] <CellTech> Fat
[05:08] <jblp> id say format it on his pc first
[05:09] <CellTech> Did that and tried it too
[05:09] <jblp> Then copy the files again from the linux box.
[05:09] <CellTech> Formatted it on his as FAT32. plugged it into mine. Files still will not transfer... Its MS it's evil
[05:09] <lwizardl> jblp, does his pc has multiple partitions on the HDD or multiple HDD's ?
[05:10] <jblp> Sounds like a good candidate for the local recyclying dump
[05:10] <jblp> Tell your friend to get a new machine
[05:11] <jblp> Does it have a cd/dvd drive?
[05:11] <jblp> lol
[05:11] <lwizardl> CellTech, well if you have a LiveCD handy why not boot to the live disc, which will let you get on the net. then you can download the drivers etc from the website to the windows partiton, and then reboot the system and have access to them
[05:11] <jblp> Yeah
[05:12] <jblp> Was going to suggest something similar
[05:12] <jblp> I used to hate getting stuck on annoying shiet like that on old boxes
[05:12] <lwizardl> well all know the problem by itself......(M$).....couch
[05:12] <jblp> I just gave up after a while
[05:12] <jblp> better to just get a new box
[05:12] <jblp> not worth the hassle
[05:13] <lwizardl> jblp, I had that happen also. so I just turned them into firewalls or routers
[05:13] <Tasmania> night guys!
[05:13] <jblp> "new" old hardware is so cheap now adays
[05:13] <jblp> You could get a fully functional pc for $100
[05:13] <CellTech> This computer won't even boot from flashdrive
[05:13] <jblp> lol
[05:14] <lwizardl> LOL
[05:14] <jblp> If you pc wont boot from a flash drive id say its time to get a new one
[05:14] <jblp> no offense
[05:14] <jayar> hrmm... my one ubuntu box is not on the network for some reason. havn't changed anything... it can see other computers and shares, but cant be accessed... not even via ssh
[05:14] <lwizardl> sounds like some old HP/Compaq that I have had to deal with before
[05:15] <lwizardl> which resulted in a similar event to office space
[05:15] <jblp> yeah
[05:15] <jblp> thats my point
[05:15] <eon01> Hello ! I have a problem with the sidepan of rhythmbox  that disappeared completly . Anyone could help ?
[05:16] <jblp> My logic is this
[05:16] <jblp> Fighting old pc hardware is like beating a dead horse
[05:16] <ejo> bah... no one seems to be awake in #ubuntu+1
[05:17] <lwizardl> well celltech left I was going to suggest he may have to write smartbootmanager to a floppy disk
[05:17] <ejo> (hopefully minor) 12.04 install issue if anyone wants to bite
[05:17] <jblp> lol
[05:18] <jblp> lwizardl, Firewalls and routers are nice. I just think theyre overkill for home use
[05:18] <jblp> Been there
[05:18] <lwizardl> don't laugh about the floppy thing. I had to do that will a dell laptop 2 years ago.
[05:19] <lwizardl> jblp, well depends on the user
[05:19] <jblp> a linksys router running a custom firmwate is good enough for me
[05:19] <jblp> firmware*
[05:19] <lwizardl> yeah but someone can get into that fairly easy
[05:19] <jblp> Not to mention the cost to run a box 24/7
[05:20] <jblp> yeah
[05:20] <lwizardl> the networks I setup for people have the wireless networks on a separate network so they can't have wireless hacker screwing with the systems hehe
[05:20] <jblp> I see
[05:20] <lwizardl> yeah but some of the machines when you turn them into a firewall/router you only need like a 300watt psu for them
[05:21] <jblp> Thats still a ton more than running a little linksys router
[05:21] <jblp> For home use is overkill it hink
[05:21] <lwizardl> now if you was to have like some 750+watt psu in there as a firewall then yes overkill
[05:21] <jblp> Unless youre running some crazy ass fiber
[05:24] <andytop> oo
[05:27] <blackxored> hello guys, I just compiled linux 3.2.6 on my box and went smoothly (on paper), now booting back in, I seem to have been dropped to unity 2d and also the screen flickers (pointer), I guess it's something wrong with the card drivers, can some of you tell me if I'm right and help me diagnose this?
[05:30] <LGSilva> is a regular desktop possible in 11.10? like old gnome?
[05:30] <boomshankerx> you can install and enable gnome
[05:31] <boomshankerx> just google it
[05:31] <LGSilva> I'm running gnome 3 but its almost like unity
[05:31] <boomshankerx> i was just going to say
[05:31] <boomshankerx> they are pretty much the same
[05:31] <bookpage> hi there, im having a bit of trouble with displays. everything was fine, but now i can't seem to turn my second monitor 'on'... through display i change it to on, apply, but when i come back, it's reset to 'off'
[05:32] <boomshankerx> LGSilva, you should be able to downgrade to gnome 2.x
[05:33] <LGSilva> will I lose any important feature doing that or just eyecandy?
[05:33] <boomshankerx> LGSilva, but honestly I'd get used to it...everything seems to be going to these toy desktops
[05:33] <ejo> I'm installing from a LiveCD (actually USB stick, but same deal) and progress goes pretty smoothly to about 90%, then has stalled apparently permanently.  The system is not hung, I can drop to a terminal etc., but it's not making install progress.  Should I just start over and hope for a different outcome?
[05:34] <boomshankerx> how long have you waited
[05:34] <boomshankerx> hardware?
[05:34] <ejo> 40 minutes.  First 90% of progress bar only took about 25 including downloading packages, language packs etc
[05:34] <ejo> Hardware is a pretty standard desktop
[05:34] <LGSilva> I will try to install e17 :P
[05:35] <boomshankerx> I
[05:35] <boomshankerx> i'd try again
[05:35] <ejo> Might as well...
[05:35] <Sobirvs> how to set up a vhost ?
[05:35] <JPSman> clear

[05:56] <Your_Dog> hi, in Ubuntu 12.04 how do I terminate Ubuntu Software center from searching
[05:56] <pepee> lotuspsychje, is working fine here. what browser are you using?
[05:56] <Your_Dog> I clicked the x button but it's still cancelling
[05:57] <paulus68> !precise|Your_Dog
[05:59] <lotuspsychje> pepee: flash crashes on firefox and chromium both, saying packages are broke
[06:01] <pepee> lotuspsychje, you mean it simply does not work, or it won't work on some websites?
[06:01] <Zah_> Quick question: when using gnome-terminal, I can right-click and change input method to another language
[06:01] <lotuspsychje> pepee: it doesnt show on any website
[06:02] <Zah_> How do I do this in a tty terminal
[06:02] <pepee> lotuspsychje, tried reconfiguring flash?
[06:03] <lotuspsychje> pepee: i tryed uninstall, and install flash 11, but error on packages
[06:03] <pepee> what errors?
[06:03] <lotuspsychje> pepee: broke packages, cant install new flash
 Alt+Shift is default for layout switching
[06:04] <pepee> lotuspsychje, I mean, do you see some error messages?
[06:05] <lotuspsychje> pepee: if wanting to play a youtube, just blank screen, no video
[06:05] <Xlaits> Hey, everyone, I'm having some generic Linux issues, such as crashing, locking up gpu, ect...
[06:05] <Xlaits> I'll wait until the previous task is solved, first...
[06:05] <Zah_> zeal18: Thanks, however it doesn't seem to do anything in a tty terminal
[06:05] <Zah_> When I go to Ctrl+Alt+F1 for instance
[06:06] <pepee> lotuspsychje, try removing/reinstalling libflashplayer.so
[06:06] <pepee> also try 32/64 bits versions
[06:06] <lotuspsychje> okay ill try
[06:07] <pepee> Xlaits, try reinstalling the graphics driver, and the xserver
 I installed Russian version of ubuntu and I have 2 layouts in tty from default config
 and I use Alt+Shift to switch it
[06:08] <Xlaits> pepee, How would I go about doing that?
[06:09] <Xlaits> <complete linux newb>
[06:09] <pepee> Xlaits, check what driver are you using, try reinstalling those packages
[06:09] <Xlaits> Altight, give me a sec...
[06:09] <pepee> from apt-get or dpkg
[06:10] <Belial`> anyone using autohide for the launcher notice once you reveal the launcher with the cursor to click an icon, if you just let the cursor sit on top of the icon after loading/bringing it to focus, the launcher hides?
[06:10] <Belial`> shouldn't the launcher stay revealed if the mouse is hovering over it?
 try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1758915
[06:12] <Xlaits> I can't remember how to check what drivers I'm using...
[06:12] <pepee> Xlaits, lspci to find graphic devices
[06:13] <Xlaits> Here's what I go: http://pastebin.com/d2pYt5R9
[06:13] <Xlaits> got*
[06:14] <pepee> Xlaits, 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RC410 [Radeon Xpress 200M]
[06:14] <pepee> Xlaits, ubuntu should be using the radeon open source driver
[06:15] <Xlaits> Ok, pepee, how do I go about re/installing the drivers?
[06:15] <Xlaits> (I'm using an external monitor, if that counts for anything...)
[06:16] <pepee> Xlaits, run   lsmod | grep -E "nv|fglr"
[06:17] <pepee> Xlaits, sorry.   lsmod | grep -E "nv|fglr|radeon"     <- add |radeon
[06:17] <Xlaits> That didn't seem to do anything...
[06:17] <Xlaits> Oh, alright...
[06:18] <Zah_> zeal18: Thanks, this was close but it still doesnt allow me to select the options available with Gnome Terminals right click->Input Methods menu
[06:18] <Xlaits> pepee, result: http://pastebin.com/zpZ2Gy9L
[06:18] <pepee> Xlaits, good, its using radeon
[06:18] <Xlaits> pepee, alright, so what's the next course of action?
[06:19] <pepee> Xlaits, are you using ubuntu 11.10?
[06:19] <Xlaits> pepee, yeah.
 gnome and tty have diferent configs
[06:19] <pepee> Xlaits, try upgrading to 12.04, can be useful :)
 and diferent layouts too
[06:20] <Xlaits> pepee Really, there's a new one out!?
[06:20] <Antaze> can anyone tell me ....how to use irc of arch linux
[06:20] <Xlaits> pepee, how would I doublecheck my version number?
[06:21] <Antaze> whats the channel name of arch
[06:21] <pepee> Xlaits, lsb_release -a
[06:21] <pepee> Xlaits, yes, ubuntu 12.04 will be released next week
[06:21] <Xlaits> pepee, yeah, it;s 11.10... T_T
[06:21] <pepee> Antaze, #arch ? perhaps #archlinux
[06:22] <Xlaits> pepee, I got this one from the site, though...
[06:22] <pepee> Xlaits, fresh install?
[06:22] <Xlaits> pepee, I've been using this for a week or so...
[06:22] <bazhang> Antaze, /join #archlinux

[06:23] <pepee> Antaze, you are welcome
[06:23] <Antaze> yup i got it...thanks bazhang..
[06:24] <Xlaits> pepee, alright. Got a link I can use to find it? And as a side note, will I need to back up my files if I'm upgrading?
[06:25] <pepee> Xlaits, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/TechnicalOverview/Beta2  . and yes, you need to backup your files
[06:25] <mizifih> Hi there.
[06:25] <Xlaits> pepee, Alright, thanks. I hope this fixes all the crashing that has been happening.
[06:26] <Xlaits> pepee, I'll come back online once I'm done witht he install, just to keep you updated.
[06:26] <mizifih> I'm trying to install 11.10 but the disk I want to use is on a IDE-SATA port, 11.10 instalation can't find this disk.
[06:26] <mizifih> Is there a workaround to make the disk visible to the instalation?
[06:26] <deb0> Is pyrenamer able to put files into folders according to the timestamps of the files?
[06:26] <pepee> Xlaits, or you can do an upgrade: sudo update-manager -d
[06:26] <pepee> Xlaits, sorry, but I have to go now :/
[06:27] <deb0> I can only find today's date in pyrenamer
[06:27] <Xlaits> pepee, that's fine. Thanks for the help.
[06:28] <pepee> Xlaits, yw. obviously, you can come back and ask for help :)
[06:28] <Xlaits> pepee, and I will, if anything troubles me again. You've restored a little of my faith in humanity.
[06:29] <pepee> Xlaits, hehe. good luck
[06:29] <Xlaits> pepee, Thanks, I'll need it.
[06:29] <deper29> hi, I am trying to set up a vpn server at home. I am using openvpn and dd
[06:29] <mizifih> halp!
[06:30] <deper29> dd-wrt vpn router. having trouble setting up the server config file. not really sure what to do according to this guidy http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/VPN_(the_easy_way)_v24%2B can anyone help?
[06:30] <pepee> deper29, #dd-wrt
[06:31] <pepee> !ask | mizifih
[06:31] <mizifih> pepee: [06:26] <mizifih> I'm trying to install 11.10 but the disk I want to use is on a IDE-SATA port, 11.10 instalation can't find this disk.
[06:31] <mizifih> [06:26] <mizifih> Is there a workaround to make the disk visible to the instalation?
[06:31] <deper29> pepee, I asked there, as well as #openvpn, but nobody there is answering at all. I thought I'd give it a shot here since I am running ubuntu 10.04
[06:32] <pepee> mizifih, does the bios show the disk?
[06:32] <pepee> deper29, IIRC there are two dd-wrt channels. try #ddwrt
[06:32] <mizifih> pepee: thanks mate. Yes, it's showing on the bios and when I hit F8 to select boot device (to force the DVD to boot)
[06:32] <deper29> pepee, I'll give it a shot. thanks :)
[06:33] <mizifih> pepee: it's showing on windows also
[06:34] <mizifih> pepee: but I notice something, during the BIOS post processing the drive is listed on a Marvell controller, as IDE, althogh it's a SATA disk
[06:35] <Zah_> asdf
[06:35] <mizifih> pepee: and when I hit F8 to select boot device it's listed as IDE as well
[06:35] <pepee> mizifih, tried changing from IDE to sata in bios?
[06:35] <mizifih> pepee: yes, changed it to SATA, RAID and AHCI
[06:36] <mizifih> pepee: none of then worked
[06:36] <mizifih> All I know is that the disk is on this marvell controller
[06:36] <mizifih> but it's onboard
[06:36] <mizifih> and I can't control it
[06:37] <pepee> mizifih, run fdisk -l
[06:38] <pepee> mizifih, or parted -l
[06:38] <mizifih> pepee: fdisk it is, pastebin?
[06:38] <pepee> mizifih, yes
[06:38] <ggherdov> I all. Apologies if that's offtopic. I am setting up trac (http://trac.edgewall.org/) on my own server with apache2+fastCGI. things aren't going smooth: here the error.log and config file (snippet): http://bpaste.net/show/26614/ . The point is: if I run trac.cgi by the user www-data (i.e., Apache, in ubuntu) I don't have the env var SERVER_PORT set, and the script throws an exception. Here the traceback: http://bpaste.net/show/
[06:38] <ggherdov> 27234/ any hint/gotcha?
[06:39] <pepee> mizifih, are you trying to install ubuntu?
[06:39] <mizifih> http://pastebin.com/Yc3MRJgp
[06:39] <ggherdov> sorry link got cut in two: traceback: http://bpaste.net/show/27234/
[06:39] <mizifih> pepee: yeah, ubuntu 11.10
[06:39] <pepee> mizifih, try 12.04, it may work
[06:40] <mizifih> pepee: is it beta or stable? beta, right?
[06:40]  * ggherdov going AFK for 5 mins, will check IRC at comeback
[06:40] <pepee> mizifih, beta2, final stages
[06:40] <pepee> ggherdov, /join #trac
[06:41] <mizifih> pepee: will it be upgraded to final without needing to reinstall the whole system?
[06:41] <pepee> mizifih, yes
[06:41] <mizifih> pepee: as you can see I'm kinda new to it
[06:41] <mizifih> pepee: 12.04 it is!

[06:45] <ggherdov> pepee: sure, the #trac channel. If they cared enough to check IRC. Frankly, i have tried all hours of the day, and people there simply don't give a flip to what is being posted on the channel (or maybe they just don't like *me* :-)

[06:47] <pepee> ggherdov, try googlin?
[06:47] <Ztane> ggherdov: you might consider using mod_wsgi instead?
[06:48] <Ztane> ggherdov: http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracModWSGI
[06:49] <Ztane> how to do a floppy rescue image with grub in oneiric; it seems that grub-mkrescue now only produces an ISO image...
[06:49] <sirriffsalot_> pepee: you out of ideas too?:D
[06:49] <pepee> sirriffsalot_, yep
[06:49] <sirriffsalot_> pepee: cheers:)
[06:50] <Linux_Freak> wazzaaa
[06:50] <pepee> sirriffsalot_, sorry :/
[06:50] <auronandace> sirriffsalot_: what are you trying to do?
[06:51] <ggherdov> Ztane I am not sure I understand your answer. I'll give you more context. I use mod_fcgid for fastcgi. If I GET (in the http sense of the term) the trac page, I got a 500 (internal server error). I said what the flip, let's see what happen. So I SSHed into the machine, su-ed to www-data, and run trac.cgi by hand. But as you now point out, I am not reproducing the source of the 500, I might actually just have a *different* error,
[06:51] <ggherdov> since it isn't apache running the thing and not enough env is loaded. I see now your point. Then Question: How to reproduce the *exact* 500 in a way to see python traceback ?
[06:51] <ggherdov> pepee: sure I was on big G right now
[06:51] <sirriffsalot_> auronandace: http://jackaudio.org/routing_flash
[06:52] <sirriffsalot_> auronandace: I get stuck at the "make" stage thanks to this error: " flashsupport.c:184:28: fatal error: linux/videodev.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated." :-/
[06:52] <Ztane> ggherdov: short answer: you use mod_fcgid for a script that does not run under mod_fcgid. Trac is a python program, for python under apache, the best module to use is mod_wsgi instead of fastcgi.
[06:52] <auronandace> sirriffsalot_: got build-essential installed?
[06:52] <Ztane> ggherdov: hmm indeed... now i see :D
[06:53] <pepee> Ztane, mount the image, or write it to the floppy (after making a backup...)
[06:53] <tnm> any suggestions what's the best html, css, AJAX editor for ubuntu?
[06:53] <Ztane> ggherdov: anyway: with mod_wsgi, things could be smoother ;) at least then you get the python tracebacks in apache logs
[06:53] <Ztane> pepee: no
[06:53] <sirriffsalot_> auronandace: will check:) Thanks for your time!!
[06:53] <Ztane> pepee: it is an iso image, not bootable as a floppy
[06:53] <auronandace> !info build-essential | sirriffsalot_
[06:53] <bobweaver> tnm I like gedit and also genie and bluefish thou bluefish is slow
[06:53] <bobweaver> see bit about best
[06:53] <ggherdov> Ztane: I see. Dammit I hate changing configuration in the middle of a setup, but yeah it might be the way to go
[06:53] <bobweaver> bot*
[06:54] <pepee> Ztane, you can mount it, anyway
[06:54] <Ztane> pepee: yes, it does not help a bit
[06:54] <pepee> ah k
[06:54] <Ztane> pepee: i need a rescue floppy, not an iso image
[06:54] <sirriffsalot_> auronandace: synaptic says I have that too :-S
[06:54] <pepee> ahh, sorry, didn't know what you were talking about :/
[06:55] <pepee> Ztane, to install grub?
[06:55] <Ztane> somewhere they say that some grub version produces a funny iso image that is also a floppy bootable image
[06:55] <tnm> bobbyd, can gedit be somehow "PIMPED" for usage?
[06:55] <Ztane> pepee: no, i want to make a rescue floppy :D
[06:55] <tnm> bobweaver,  can gedit be somehow "PIMPED" for usage?
[06:55] <bobweaver> tnm yes there are plugins
[06:56] <bobweaver> tnm I will take screenshot of my gedit
[06:56] <mizifih> I'm really enjoying this new look. I tried to use ubuntu once before, like 3 years ago or something...
[06:56] <auronandace> sirriffsalot_: do you have the list of stuff thats needed? as it says on the page?
[06:56] <sirriffsalot_> auronandace: what page? I can't see any link in that info:O
[06:57] <auronandace> sirriffsalot_: the page you showed me
[06:57] <pepee> Ztane, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1305475#6  ?
[06:57] <sirriffsalot_> auronandace: I didn't link you that, but I will look now:D
[06:57] <sirriffsalot_> auronandace: ups
[06:57] <sirriffsalot_> auronandace: Haha, scratch that, though you sent that ubuntuforums thing. Will check:) Sec
[06:58] <auronandace> sirriffsalot_: http://jackaudio.org/routing_flash
[06:58] <Ztane> pepee: nope, that is the old version; that one also worked. under current I can produce an image that does not make for a bootable floppy image.
[06:58] <bobweaver> tnm, http://postimage.org/image/k4z5xge09/
[06:58] <sirriffsalot_> auronandace: right;D
[06:58] <pepee> Ztane, :/
[06:59] <auronandace> sirriffsalot_: see the list on the page? do you have all those installed?
[06:59] <Ztane> the switches got all mixed too
[06:59] <Ztane> pepee: that was something like grub 196 on the page, the current is 1.98, everything different :(
[06:59] <sirriffsalot_> auronandace: checking now... But those titles aren't the package names not a large extent, so I'm having trouble checking. Would you mind telling me what the package equivolents are?
[06:59] <pepee> yep :/
[07:00] <sirriffsalot_> auronandace: I was able to confirm I have these git-core  autoconf  automake  libtool
[07:01] <sirriffsalot_> auronandace: having trouble confirming the rest
[07:01] <auronandace> sirriffsalot_: you'll need the dev libraries too
[07:01] <bobweaver> tnm, you can install plugins from command line or by ubuntu software center see pic http://postimage.org/image/fc4rozud1/      in terminal look at programs for gedit   with    apt-cache search gedit
[07:01] <tnm> bobweaver, yes yes very nice :D

[07:26] <tnm> bobweaver, is it possible that there's a plugin that helps you end tags, for an example, if i put in <head> gedit helps me finish tag or gives me possibilities that you can have for <he...>?
[07:27] <bobweaver> tnm mono
[07:27] <Linux_Guyy> bazinga
[07:27] <bobweaver> that will do that
[07:29] <TMP_> Are compiz effects even possible with an Integrated graphics card?
[07:30] <tnm> bobweaver, mono editor?
[07:30] <Linux_Guyy> icq is getting raped
[07:30] <UrB> TMP: why not if it's "good enough"?
[07:30] <bobweaver> tnm,  Gedit does have code completion as a plugin. I happened to stumble upon this thread as I was googeling for something likewise for KDE. In Gedit as I remember well you just go to preferences > plugins or directly to >plugins
[07:30] <bobweaver> from the forums ^^
[07:31] <bobweaver> mono dev is like microcarap's visual studio  can use for asp and asp classic vb and what not also
[07:32] <bobweaver> tnm,  ^^
[07:34] <UrB> TMP_: there are youtube clips showing compiz running with your gfx chip, so I'd say it's possible - google around to find out how exactly

[07:42] <sm0ke_c00led> Xtreme, does it say that if you try the same thing with root?
[07:43] <sm0ke_c00led> Xtreme, only test it if you trust the application though
[07:43] <Xtreme> nope it doesnt.. it works with root
[07:43] <sm0ke_c00led> Xtreme, what is the app that you are trying to run?

[07:45] <sm0ke_c00led> Xtreme, you can try creating another user and see if it is the same issue if not it is a permission issue
[07:46] <sm0ke_c00led> The other option to test is to add yourself to the video group
[07:46] <munsking> im running ubuntu server 11.10, if i run ecrypt-mount-private and enter my password i get "segmentation fault password incorrect", how can i solve this?
[07:46] <Xtreme> the current user i am trying this is with a user with root preveligies..
[07:46] <Xtreme> how to add to video group?
[07:47] <sm0ke_c00led> open a terminal and type sudo gpasswd -a "yourusername' video
[07:47] <steveccc> is 1024 the best resolution I am going to achieve on 12.04 in a virtual machine?
[07:47] <sm0ke_c00led> Xtreme, yourusername is your username
[07:48] <Xtreme> done.. lets check :)

[07:51] <Xtreme> currently i am root
[07:51] <Xtreme> i am trying to run as ghost
[07:51] <Xtreme> so what i did so du ghost
[07:51] <Xtreme> then tried to run a app, but those error
[07:52] <Xtreme> if i do sudo, then those work, but they run under root's name. not the ghost
[07:52] <sm0ke_c00led> Xtreme, are you logged in as root?
[07:53] <Xtopherus> lol
[07:53] <sm0ke_c00led> Xtreme, if so then that is the problem
[07:54] <Xtreme> any solution for it??

[09:05] <APoulos> I created a thread that maybe you can follow and see my problem -  http://askubuntu.com/questions/123047/used-remastersys-and-made-a-custom-iso-of-my-ubuntu-but-now-left-with-a-1-5gb#comment146865_123047
[09:05] <PedroGomes> ActionParsnip: yes, but only in OS2 that was an effect,
[09:06] <luk> Ciao a tutti
[09:06] <PedroGomes> ActionParsnip: when I'm on OS1, the first one installed than I got no control over grub it seems
[09:07] <PedroGomes> ActionParsnip: there is a hack, mount OS2 and edit the grub.cfg directly
[09:07] <ActionParsnip> PedroGomes: usually you'd have one /boot partition afaik
[09:08] <PedroGomes> ActionParsnip: half threads say that only give problems, and as far as I tried, its true
[09:08] <APoulos> ActionParsnip, could you take a gander at my issue: http://askubuntu.com/questions/123047/used-remastersys-and-made-a-custom-iso-of-my-ubuntu-but-now-left-with-a-1-5gb#comment146865_123047
[09:08] <PedroGomes> * a /boot partition only raises more problems
[09:09] <APoulos> PedroGomes, if you
[09:10] <ActionParsnip> APoulos: not used remastersys, sorry
[09:10] <APoulos> PedroGomes, if you're trying to get Grub to recognize the new OS entry you may need go `sudo update grub`
[09:10] <APoulos> PedroGomes, what OS's are you trying to dual boot?
[09:10] <Ztane> hmm so how to do rescue floppy with current grub, mkrescue seems to produce iso images only?
[09:11] <ActionParsnip> Ztane: if the ISO fits on a floppy, it can be used
[09:12] <APoulos> PedroGomes, if I can ask, what OS's are you trying to dual boot? because if one of them is Windows, GRUB doesnt work well with windows
[09:12] <PedroGomes> APoulos: for now a 12.04 and a 11.10, but I intend to do it generic. An yes i run update-grub, "update-grub2" to be precise
[09:12] <ReXHaviK> a quassel question, how to keep the join/part messages from showing?
[09:12] <PedroGomes> APoulos: only linuxs
[09:12] <ActionParsnip> ReXHaviK: which client?
[09:13] <ReXHaviK> ActionParsnip: quassel
[09:13] <eunshis_> hi every body
[09:13] <APoulos> PedroGomes, have you tried installing Boot-repair?
[09:14] <APoulos> PedroGomes, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[09:14] <APoulos> PedroGomes, that should set your grub menu straight and find all your OS's
[09:15] <Ztane> ActionParsnip: it does but it does not contain valid boot sector :(
[09:15] <ActionParsnip> ReXHaviK: let me search
[09:15] <APoulos> APoulos, also - if you're using 11.10 - you can run Startup-Manager - sadly Startup-manager doesnt work well with 12.04
[09:15] <ReXHaviK> ActionParsnip: thnks
[09:15] <wereHamster> do the ubuntu archive servers not support ipv6?
[09:15] <APoulos> PedroGomes, APoulos, also - if you're using 11.10 - you can run Startup-Manager - sadly Startup-manager doesnt work well with 12.04
[09:15] <PedroGomes> APoulos: I'm trying to automize a installation on remote servers so this kind of tool is not a choice
[09:15] <APoulos> PedroGomes, oh, nevermind
[09:16] <ActionParsnip> Ztane: There are floppys on pendrivelinux to boot various devices. I believe the install CD can even be told to boot the first drive
[09:16] <APoulos> PedroGomes, that's out of my league
[09:16] <wereHamster> I have a default server install of precise, ipv6 works, but apt-get update can not contact us.archive.ubuntu.com.
[09:16] <APoulos> wereHamster, switch sources to main server
[09:16] <Ztane> ActionParsnip: hmm actually I just need to do a custom rescue floppy
[09:17] <ActionParsnip> ReXHaviK: is there any sort of plugins menu or options in the main window?
[09:17] <Ztane> somewhere I read that the same image would work as ISO and floppy image, but my grub on oneiric produces images that have first 32k just all zeroes
[09:17] <PedroGomes> APoulos: I have all working except for this little hack to change grub entries, but thanks anyway
[09:18] <Onixs> how to dump gpu bios inubuntu
[09:18] <PedroGomes> APoulos: I guess I will do a forum post
[09:18] <APoulos> PedroGomes, you're welcome - tried to help the best I could
[09:18] <ReXHaviK> ActionParsnip: there is, i can insert ignore options, based on nick server and message
[09:18] <ActionParsnip> ReXHaviK: under settings -> behavious -> notifications   maybe
[09:19] <ReXHaviK> ActionParsnip: server notification?
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> ReXHaviK: maybe
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> ReXHaviK: i'd ask in #kubuntu too
[09:21] <ReXHaviK> ActionParsnip: they went night night early
[09:21] <wereHamster> APoulos: which is the main server?
[09:21] <APoulos> wereHamster, give me just a sec and ill give you a screen shot
[09:21] <ReXHaviK> ActionParsnip: i was being lazy, i'll google it
[09:21] <wereHamster> APoulos: it's a server, so no gui
[09:23] <APoulos> wereHamster, oh... theres no way you can remote desktop into it?
[09:23] <APoulos> wereHamster, because its in the software-center
[09:23] <itbcn8> hi, anyone know how to get the Citrix ICA client working on Ubuntu 11.10 x64? (I have read all the help pages I could find through google but not working), thanks.
[09:24] <wereHamster> APoulos: I'll try manually updating the sources.lst
[09:27] <APoulos> DOES anyone know how to get rid of the /dev/zram0 - solid state drive that keeps showing up - its not in my fstab
[09:28] <APoulos> it only happened after I used remastersys
[09:28] <APoulos> it acts like a swap
[09:28] <APoulos> but its not

[09:37] <NET||abuse> hi guys, i'm trying to automatically restart apache from a build job, the buildbot user is who's doing it, just runs /usr/sbin/apachectl restart
[09:37] <NET||abuse> i added buildbot to a special "restartapache" group
[09:37] <CQ> hello, I lost the part of the toolbar where all the open applications are shown... how do I get that back?
[09:38] <CQ> I looked for a widget, but no luck
[09:38] <CQ> sorry, wrong channel...
[09:39] <itbcn8> j/
[09:39] <NET||abuse> then in sudoers i add      %restartapache ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/apachectl
[09:39] <NET||abuse> but the log for the buildbot says sudo: no tty present and no askpass program specified
[09:39] <DigDeeper> i still have that stupid taskbar on the left side
[09:39] <NET||abuse> then i added Defaults visiblepw    and now it said sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts
[09:40] <CQ> DigDeeper: then install gnome-desktop-fallback or whatever thats called, and you get the old ubuntu look back.
[09:40] <DigDeeper> cool
[09:40] <CQ> have to select gnome classic on the login screen

I am not too familiar with ubuntu, what drivers are recommended, can I switch off this compiz thing or is it heavily incorporated in gnome/unity?
[10:13] <Sobirvs> and btw should i do the clean install ? for new ubuntu ? or there is a option for upgrade for a easy way
[10:14] <MonkeyDust> jonkristian  do you want to use Unity?
[10:14] <riktking> Sobirvs, if u dont have a web connection then you cant get the drivers!
[10:14] <riktking> but the upgrade may help

[10:15] <seacow_>  Hi all. Could someone please help me? I am a noob admin and I am trying to ssh to my Ubuntu box and have it execute a function while I am gone (run a command line program). It should be sampling and network data and recording it to a file, but when I close my ssh session it is stopping. How do I make it keep going while I am not logged in?
[10:15] <c_nick> close
[10:15] <jonkristian> MonkeyDust: well I want him to have a system that is easy to use and doesn't crash. My mother also use ubuntu on her laptop so they should have the same identical layout.
[10:15] <c_nick> \close
[10:15] <pk_> how to install tar.gz?
[10:15] <jonkristian> seacow_: use screen?
[10:15] <MonkeyDust> !nounity| jonkristian look here:
[10:15] <pk_> yes
[10:15] <seacow_> jonkristian: thanks, so that means just type screen before the command?
[10:16] <jonkristian> MonkeyDust: okay. But I want to try switching drivers first, do you have a suggestion for that, for the radeon?
[10:16] <MonkeyDust> jonkristian  I use Ubuntu Classic myself, looks very much like Gnome2 and is very fast, XFCE and LXDE are also very fast
[10:17] <MonkeyDust> jonkristian  mmm no
[10:17] <Sobirvs> k anyways my prob not solved :( i will try with wired net conn.
[10:17] <Sobirvs> thanks for ur time riktking man ;)
[10:17] <Tanvir> Hello I need a bit hardware suggestion here. Do you guys think Ubuntu 12.04 will run perfect with Dell XPS 14Z? Configuration: i5 with 8 GB RAM and 750 HDD and Intel 300 HDMI graphics.
[10:17] <riktking> Sobirvs, it will say when u want to
[10:17] <MonkeyDust> Tanvir  better ask in #ubuntu+1
[10:17] <riktking> when u plug it in that there are restricted drivers available
[10:17] <jonkristian> MonkeyDust: Thing is, my parents aren't too computer savvy, they are pretty used to the defaults.
[10:17] <riktking> this will install the drivers, usually. then a reboot and voila
[10:17] <Tanvir> MonkeyDust, thanks. Doing.
[10:18] <MonkeyDust> jonkristian  "defaults" = gnome 2 ?
[10:18] <jonkristian> MonkeyDust: no, the unity
[10:18] <Sobirvs> k riktking  , if i conn to wired conn. then it will automatically ask for download drivers or something ?
[10:18] <riktking> Sobirvs, yes it *should* do
[10:19] <jonkristian> MonkeyDust: I'll see if i can switch drivers, if not I will try default gnome 3
[10:19] <Sobirvs> no need to open anything ? not the software central or terminal to execute any command?
[10:19] <MonkeyDust> jonkristian  Unity = gnome3
[10:19] <MonkeyDust> with some eye candy
[10:19] <jonkristian> MonkeyDust: yes, but with modifications, am i wrong?
[10:19] <jonkristian> MonkeyDust: and it doesn't rely on compiz?
[10:19] <riktking> Sobirvs, it should give u a pop up
[10:19] <jonkristian> It is compiz that crashes
[10:19] <MonkeyDust> jonkristian  it does
[10:20] <Sobirvs> ahh kk thanks riktking
[10:20] <riktking> i know on my lenovo it does its the first thing that i have to do on reinstal
[10:20] <Sobirvs> oh
[10:20] <Sobirvs> and another question was how to install VLC or any mediaplayer which can play every file , like .mp3/av/mkv/all
[10:20] <jonkristian> MonkeyDust: I'm running gnome 3 on arch linux here, it doesn't rely on compiz at all.
[10:20] <riktking> yeh u use the software centre
[10:21] <Sobirvs> riktking: i cant use software centre for some restrictions putted by my college but i manually downloaded 3 files like this http://i.imgur.com/wCG7z.png can u tell me what to do next ?
[10:22] <MonkeyDust> jonkristian  yeah, like I said: Unity = gnome3 + some eye candy
[10:22] <azam22> =)
[10:22] <jonkristian> MonkeyDust: hmm, just ran unity --reset , it seems that it doesn't crash any longer. What exactly does it do?
[10:22] <sha0coder> hi ppl
[10:22] <sha0coder> I'm passing from arch to ubuntu :)
[10:23] <MonkeyDust> jonkristian  i guess it resets compiz to defaults, glad you found it :)
[10:23] <azam22> im now on jolicloud
[10:23] <riktking> Sobirvs, u need to be using the software centre
[10:23] <riktking> you will have to get a connection else where
[10:23] <Sobirvs> dude this shitty college have blocked downloading so.. :(
[10:23] <sha0coder> if i crypt the home, the system will be slower, how much slower?
[10:23] <Sobirvs> i thou can go to other internet center's but still if i have those 3 files , it surely is possible to install that
[10:23] <Sobirvs> but i dont know how to
[10:23] <LjL> Sobirvs: those are source files. why aren't you getting the binary package?
[10:24] <riktking> u have to download the .deb
[10:24] <Sobirvs> k link me to .deb
[10:24] <LjL> Sobirvs: to compile source, you also need the whole build-essential suite, so you if you can't download that, you're back at square one
[10:24] <Sobirvs> binary package ? how to get that
[10:24] <LjL> !offline | Sobirvs
[10:25] <newb2> my ubuntu (precise beta) instalation is running VESA instead nvidia, what is happening. Here is my Xorg.o.log:  http://paste.debian.net/hidden/18c1a503/
[10:25] <Sobirvs> i got this guys vlc_1.0.6-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb
[10:25] <LjL> Sobirvs: thing is, packages need dependencies. it's unlikely you will be able to just install the single VLC package, without it wanting dependencies.
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> Sobirvs: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[10:25] <matanya> is there a way to sync a video on ipad (arrg) with ubuntu?
[10:26] <riktking> Sobirvs, as i said u need to use the software centre
[10:26] <Sobirvs> guys i downloaded google chrome so easily , i downloaded its .deb file , run it in ubuntu with just single click as same in .exe in windows , but for VLC its so difficult
[10:26] <riktking> yes because it needs other packages
[10:26] <paulus68> how do you toggle in unity between workspaces?
[10:26] <MonkeyDust> newb2  better ask in #ubuntu+1
[10:26] <riktking> ubuntu ISNT windows
[10:26] <LjL> Sobirvs: so do the same with the VLC .deb. but don't necessarily expect it to work, because of dependencies.
[10:27] <Sobirvs> ubottu: i got this error while installing http://i.imgur.com/K09Uq.png
[10:27] <newb2> MonkeyDust: thanks :D going there
[10:27] <Sobirvs> can u check
[10:27] <LjL> Sobirvs: it's a missing dependency, as i was saying.
[10:27] <LjL> Sobirvs: you need to download that package too. and then other packages, and then more...
[10:27] <Sobirvs> which other packages
[10:28] <LjL> Sobirvs: why don't you just try using the http://ubottu.com/ljl/apt/ i linked to? maybe it'll get all the packages you require.
[10:28] <Sobirvs> :confused:
[10:28] <Sobirvs> LjL: k
[10:28] <Sobirvs> but what to click
[10:28] <Sobirvs> i have ubuntu 10.04
[10:28] <Sobirvs> but it is not listed there
[10:28] <Sobirvs> i have ubuntu 10.04 64bit
[10:28] <LjL> Sobirvs: yes it is, it's Lucid.
[10:29] <LjL> Sobirvs: http://ubottu.com/ljl/apt/?repo=Lucid&arch=AMD64&package=vlc&have=ubuntu-desktop
[10:29] <impi> hello
[10:29] <LjL> Sobirvs: these are the packages you need to install assuming you only have ubuntu-desktop installed.
[10:29] <impi> can anyone please explain what < > and | mean in diff language?
[10:29] <Sobirvs> LjL: there are so many of em man
[10:29] <Sobirvs> which one to select ?
[10:29] <LjL> Sobirvs: all of them.
[10:29] <Sobirvs> WOW
[10:30] <MonkeyDust> impi  they mean 'send to' and 'pipe to'
[10:30] <MonkeyDust> more or less
[10:30] <LjL> MonkeyDust: i think he's talking about the output of "diff"
[10:30] <impi> MonkeyDust, thanks man, i figured as much, but in a diff i dont think they mean more or less, rather something like, exisits in both files, but different values
[10:31] <impi> something like that, but im not sure of the meaning, which is why i asked here
[10:33] <Sobirvs> LjL: there were 44 files and i downloaded em all
[10:33] <Sobirvs> now what to do mate ?
[10:34] <newb2> worked! At upgrade from stable version the packate nvidia-current-updates was not instaled, only nvidia-current. Installing it and removing nouveau made work
[10:34] <LjL> Sobirvs: put them all in one directory, and try doing "sudo dpkg -i *.deb"
[10:34] <Sobirvs> what should be the directory name ?
[10:34] <LjL> Sobirvs: it doesn't matter
[10:34] <tixa> Hi, I had a problem with setting ipv6(local) on my ubuntu 10.04
[10:34] <Sobirvs> k i named that folder "VLC"
[10:35] <LjL> Sobirvs: if they're the only .deb files you have, you can leave them in the current directory
[10:35] <tixa> disabled network manager, my interfaces file looks like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/935255/
[10:35] <Sobirvs> now where should i put that folder?
[10:35] <Sobirvs> LjL: i putted all of em in "VLC " folder
[10:35] <LjL> Sobirvs: it doesn't matter! just "cd" to the folder, and run "sudo dpkg -i *.deb" in it
[10:35] <Sobirvs> LjL: i am a n00b rly , how to "Cd" the foldeR?
[10:36] <MrElendig> Sobirvs: man cd
[10:36] <Sobirvs> and i have to write "sudu dpkg -t" with ""  too ?
[10:36] <MrElendig> Sobirvs: case matters btw, cd not Cd
[10:36] <LjL> Sobirvs: open a terminal, type "cd ~/VLC" (assuming your VLC folder is in your home), and then "sudo dpkg -i *.deb"
[10:36] <LjL> Sobirvs: no, clearly the "" are just there to denote a command
[10:36] <Sobirvs> k
[10:36] <LjL> Sobirvs: and it's "sudo dpkg -i" not "sudu dpkg -t"
[10:36] <Sobirvs> m gonna reboot and try ur command :)
[10:36] <Sobirvs> dont go away :D
[10:38] <matanya> is there a way to sync a video on ipad (arrg) with ubuntu?
[10:39] <Badman> how do i configure mplayerthumbs for nautilus or any other file explorer?
[10:41] <ActionParsnip> matanya: do you mean copy it over?
[10:41] <fl1bbl3> matanya: what do you mean sync?  transfer it to/from ipad?  fix lip sync on mp4?
[10:41] <matanya> sync like syncing music with music players
[10:42] <auronandace> !ipad | matanya
[10:42] <auronandace> !ipod | matanya
[10:42] <matanya> I asked for Ipad
[10:43] <matanya> and I know the music stuff
[10:43] <matanya> asked about a movie
[10:43] <tapas> hi, trying to compile an app against libwebkitgtk-3.0
[10:44] <tapas> hmm, ok, trying to link the application like: gcc -o ghtml2pdf main.c `pkg-config gtk+-3.0 webkitgtk-3.0 webkit-1.0 --cflags --libs`
[10:44] <tapas> gives me undefined references to webkit_webview_new.. i guess this is a bug in the libwebkit package?
[10:44] <MrElendig> or your code
[10:44] <trevor> trevor
[10:44] <MonkeyDust> tapas  use this page to show the code to the channel http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[10:45] <tapas> http://pastesite.com/34595
[10:47] <tapas> that's about as simple as it gets.. it just doesn't link..
[10:48] <ola8395> i tried mate and trinity desktop environments and they didn`t work well on ubuntu 11.10 , then i removed them and all orphans and even cleaned the system with ubuntu tweak so it will return as it was newly installed but even though mate and trinity desktops remains as choice in the ldm login manager , how can i remove them , cause iam quite sure all packages according to them is removed
[10:50] <Sobirvs> LjL: that worked dude
[10:50] <Sobirvs> thanks \o/
[10:50] <LjL> :)
[10:50] <Sobirvs> just wanna ask , is there also a software called MPC a.k.a k-lite codec for ubuntu ?
[10:51] <LjL> don't know
[10:51] <szal> !codecs | Sobirvs
[10:51] <Sobirvs> thanks
[10:52] <Sobirvs> now what about graphics card ?>
[10:52] <Sobirvs> is my Nvidia driver installed?
[10:52] <szal> !nvidia | Sobirvs
[10:52] <Sobirvs> :D
[10:54] <Sobirvs> what if my onboard GPU is intel HD graphics and my external GPU is of nvidia ?
[10:54] <Sobirvs> i have to install intel drivers too then ?
[10:55] <disturbedfood> hello, i have installed i3wm on my ubuntu install and would like to use the Monte Carlo bitmap font. I have it installed so i can select it in gnome-terminal, but i want i3 to use it as well. however, it doesnt show up in xfontsel
[10:55] <Sobirvs> guys what if i download the drivers from here http://www.nvidia.in/content/DriverDownload-March2009/confirmation.php?url=/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/295.40/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-295.40.run&lang=in&type=GeForce
[10:55] <Sobirvs> i have to just click or what ?
[10:55] <Sobirvs> LjL:  ?
[10:55] <Sobirvs> :P
[10:55] <Sobirvs> help
[10:56] <paulus68> how do you toggle in unity between workspaces?
[10:56] <LjL> Sobirvs: don't get the drivers from there. use the Restricted Drivers program in Ubuntu instead.
[10:56] <Sobirvs> restricted drivers ?
[10:56] <Sobirvs> link ?
[10:56] <LjL> Sobirvs: or Additional Drivers or however it's called these days.
[10:57] <LjL> Sobirvs: no link, you already have it installed. try typing "driver" in your application list.
[10:57] <Sobirvs> application list ?
[10:57] <disturbedfood> so i can't find the font code to use, and if i use any of the ones on the internet, the bar doesn't display(i'm guessing it is because it can't find the font)
[10:57] <Sobirvs> u mean in terminal ?
[10:58] <LjL> Sobirvs: in Unity, man, the icon at the top left, where you see all your applications (or if you don't have Unity, then System -> Administration -> Additional Drivers)
[10:59] <Firdaus> Sobirvs: do you think dpkg -l
[11:01] <fl1bbl3> matanya: you can sync via something like "Files Pro" on the iPad
[11:01] <matanya> and on the ubuntu side?
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> Sobirvs: or run:  sudo apt-get install nvidia-current    same thing
[11:01] <fl1bbl3> matanya: its just an FTP transfer, so lftp
[11:02] <matanya> ok. thanks
[11:02] <vlt> Hello. How can I create a block device in RAM?
[11:02] <fl1bbl3> there is a free version of the app too iirc
[11:02] <matanya> I don't own one, BTW
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> vlt: like RAM drive?
[11:03] <vlt> ActionParsnip: What else could I mean?
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> vlt: just clarifying, so as to not waste time going down the wrong avenue...
[11:03] <MonkeyDust> vlt  http://askubuntu.com/questions/11976/how-to-create-ram-drive#11979
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> vlt: a simple 'yes' is sufficient.
[11:04] <Sobirvs> Firdaus> Sobirvs: do you think dpkg -l
[11:04] <Sobirvs> didnt got u here Firdaus
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> vlt: if you add:    none /var/ramdisk tmpfs mode=1777,size=500M 0 0     to your /etc/fstab and make the directory /var/ramdisk you will have 500Mb of RAM disk to use (this is volatile storage so will be lost on reboot etc)
[11:05] <Sobirvs> LjL: u think my VLC is taking Nvidia GPU to play  videos ?
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> vlt: I use that for my browser cache :)
[11:05] <LjL> Sobirvs: have no idea
[11:06] <Sobirvs> so how to know then ?
[11:06] <Sobirvs> and what dir mean by dpkg -I
[11:06] <vlt> ActionParsnip: With a simple "yes" I couldn't have expressed my actual question: What else is there in Ubuntu/Linux that is a block device in RAM?
[11:07] <ActionParsnip> vlt: well, ram itself is a block device
[11:07] <vlt> ActionParsnip: Thank you. If I add this line to fstab, where's my block device then?
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> vlt: the storage can be accessed from /var/ramdisk and will be 500Mb in size
[11:08] <aureianimus> I'm going to buy a secondary monitor for my laptop, are there any specific things I should mind to make sure it plays nice with ubuntu?
[11:08] <zatan> hi how  can I show location entry instead of pathbar with Nautilus when saving file with firefox ?
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> aureianimus: one that reports EDID :)
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> zatan: ctrl+L or alt+L afaik
[11:09] <zatan> ActionParsnip, but its just temporary changes I want permannent ?
[11:09] <vlt> ActionParsnip: It looks like a file system. I need a block device.
[11:09] <vlt> Hence my question.
[11:10] <aureianimus> ActionParsnip, how do i know if one does?
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> vlt: so, like a sub-block device within the block device of the ram?
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> aureianimus: get a decent one
[11:11] <vlt> ActionParsnip: Yes, a "separate", size limited block device in RAM.
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> zatan: not sure there dude, there may be a dconf option. I know there used to be one in gconf but I'm unsure if the settings there are still honoured
[11:11] <aureianimus> okay, thanks
[11:11] <vlt> ActionParsnip: Like a partition or an LV for other block devices.
[11:12] <zatan> ActionParsnip, cheers anyway
[11:12] <zatan> ;]
[11:13] <vlt> I _could_ of course create a file in that tmpfs and losetup it ... but that sounds like unnecessary overhead
[11:13] <StepNjump> find . -type f \( -iname "*CV*" ! -iname ".*" \)
[11:13] <StepNjump> ooops sorry...
[11:14] <StepNjump> Guys I am trying to find all the files that have CV in them, only the non-hidden files... Does anyone understand why this doesn't work? find . -type f \( -iname "*CV*" ! -iname ".*" \)
[11:15] <ActionParsnip> vlt: can you see why I asked if you wanted a ramdisk now?
[11:15] <Guest19159> yello
[11:15] <Guest19159> hello
[11:16] <llutz> StepNjump: find . -type f  -iname "*CV*.*"
[11:16] <auronandace> StepNjump: is * still considered a wildcard when inside: ""
[11:16] <Guest19159> how to optimize  my internet  for port forwarding on UBUNTU 1
[11:17] <ActionParsnip> Guest19159: do you use a router, or is the ubuntu system acting as a router?
[11:17] <Guest19159> ??
[11:18] <obiwlan> hello! i just bough an enermax brick usb 2.0 hdd enclosure. according to enermax it supports 3tb disks, but my drive is seen as two SCSI LUNs. one with 2^32 sectors and another one with the remainder. any ideas what i could try? the disk is seen as one device on a local sata port.
[11:18] <Guest19159> Ubuntu acting as a router .. the laptop is connected to ADSL modem through inthernet cable
[11:19] <Guest19159> but lately my torennt isnt  connecting  and my streaming  and other mail port acting  WEIRD !!!
[11:21] <Code_Factory> hey guys, I'm in a rookie problem here and have been trying for the past 90 mins to solve it
[11:21] <Code_Factory> I run apache2 on ubuntu 11.10
[11:21] <Guest19159> Actually im using qbtorent
[11:21] <Code_Factory> and I can't get my php scripts to write and copy files
[11:21] <Code_Factory> on /var/www
[11:21] <Code_Factory> any help?
[11:23] <jamespharaoh> can anyone help me track down what is using memory on my server? free -m reports 585 out of 595 used, 576 -/+ buffers/cache, but running top and sorting by memory usage there are 72 processes and the highest three are 1.4, 0.8 and 0.1 percent. what could be using memory which doesn't show up in top?
[11:23] <zykotick9> !atemyram | jamespharaoh
[11:26] <Guest19159> can someone  YELP me plx ?
[11:27] <Code_Factory> :D never mind me I just needed to restart apache2
[11:30] <wereHamster> which package owns /etc/apt/sources.list?
[11:30] <fidel> Guest19159: maybe - you should start with a problem description
[11:30] <Guest19159> i cant get my qbtorent to connect
[11:31] <fidel> Guest19159: there isnt even a package with that name - afaik
[11:33] <ActionParsnip> wereHamster: try:  dpkg -S sources.list
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> wereHamster: There are sample files online, or you can boot the liveCD/USB and copy the default one from there  to your internal partition
[11:44] <CellTech> Xubuntu is always the one that never mounts my spare harddrive and lists it on the desk top. How can I force it too?
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> CellTech: install gvfs maybe, if its not already installed
[11:46] <CellTech> Software center? I type that in I get a long list
[11:47] <CellTech> Never mind it's in there.
[11:47] <CellTech> And still no spare drive in the list
[11:47] <y-o-d-a-yoda> hi, is there any way to make the usb install more robust? power it off uncleanly once and the stick is broken and won't boot any more. Seen this many times...
[11:47] <zykotick9> !fstab | CellTech
[11:48] <CellTech> K. It was always working in Ubuntu
[11:48] <pungi_man> try and use terminal it will occur fast and will consume less ram and cpu speed CellTech
[11:48] <ActionParsnip> y-o-d-a-yoda: use ext4 can help
[11:48] <OerHeks> y-o-d-a-yoda, that is a hardware issue, any usb stick in any OS can go corrupt when not unmounting properly
[11:48] <CellTech> What do I type in terminal?
[11:48] <y-o-d-a-yoda> ActionParsnip: err I just convert the ISO to usb with the pendrive tool
[11:48] <ActionParsnip> CellTech: sudo apt-get install gvfs
[11:49] <pungi_man> CellTech : What do u want to install??
[11:49] <CellTech> Oh. It's already installed
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> CellTech: gotcha
[11:49] <y-o-d-a-yoda> OerHeks: yes, I know. That's not the point, other distro's I have seen either repair it, or keep working. Ubuntu so far has always been 1 uncleanly shutdown = stick borked. Always.
[11:49] <CellTech> It's only xubuntu that doesn't show it ever. Ubuntu when I was on it showed it just fine. It's where I store all my media
[11:49] <y-o-d-a-yoda> OerHeks: it's not just sticks... any disk that is uncleanly shutdown has these issues
[11:49] <wereHamster> ActionParsnip: no, I don't want to edit that file. I want to know against which package to report a bug.
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> wereHamster: edit what file?
[11:50] <OerHeks> y-o-d-a-yoda, it is not an ubuntu issue, it is a user problem.
[11:50] <enroxorz> Got a question. Got a buddy who wants to try ubuntu but is very noobish so I am going to install wubi for him. What is teh difference? Will he have a full linux distro to play with or are there limitations? Will it use ntfs? so confused...
[11:50] <wereHamster> ActionParsnip: Suppose there is a bug in sources.list. Where do I report the bug?
[11:50] <CellTech> Disk Utility shows it. But it says "Error spawning nautilus: %s"
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> wereHamster: oic, then report it against the apt package
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> wereHamster: sources.list won't have bugs, its a config file
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> wereHamster: what issues are you seeing?
[11:51] <zykotick9> wereHamster: what "bug" did you find in sources.list exactly?
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> zykotick9: thats what I thought
[11:51] <wereHamster> the default server that's there is not reachable through IPv6.
[11:51] <y-o-d-a-yoda> OerHeks: I disagree. The process should be more robust or be able to repair. It does neither. But yes, one should power down cleanly.
[11:51] <CellTech> Should I install "File manager and graphical shell for Gnome? aka; Natilus?
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> wereHamster: then thats an issue witht that server, not the sources.list file
[11:52] <wereHamster> so where do I report *that* bug?
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> CellTech: could do, should help (assuming you have the space)
[11:52] <zykotick9> CellTech: why not just use fstab and have your drives mount the way you want?
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> wereHamster: i'd still use apt as the thing to report against
[11:52] <wereHamster>  :)
[11:52] <CellTech> I just want it to auto mount when I turn the computer on and be there when I want my media. That's all I care about
[11:53] <wereHamster> security.ubuntu.com isn't reachable through IPv6 either :-/
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> wereHamster: is there a change you need to make to make it use ipv6?
[11:53] <pungi_man> CellTech : Its already installed in ubuntu (pre-installed )
[11:53] <CellTech> I'm now on Xubuntu
[11:53] <wereHamster> ActionParsnip: IPv6-only network
[11:53] <wereHamster> actually a LXC container, which only has IPv6 connectivity.
[11:54] <Phazorx> could you guys please link me a guide on creating startup scripts for services in 10.04?
[11:54] <pungi_man> CellTech:type nautilus in terminal, because it will mostly be installed
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> wereHamster: is there no change you can make to use ipv6, to the sources.list file?
[11:55] <zykotick9> pungi_man: i don't think nautilus is installed by default with xfce
[11:55] <nerker> I can't play videos on my laptop using vlc or movie player. I get sound but no video. My system runs on 11.04 .
[11:55] <CellTech> Nothing found
[11:55] <CellTech> I will install now
[11:55] <foo357> Hello, I'm setting up a LAMP server on a computer with 10.04 LTS installed. I'm following this guide: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/42480/how-to-turn-your-home-ubuntu-pc-into-a-lamp-web-server/
[11:55] <wereHamster> ActionParsnip: sure I can. That's what I did. But IMO I shouldn't have to edit that file, the default installation should just work.
[11:55] <Noorideen> hello everyone
[11:56] <foo357> however it doesn't seem like php is working
[11:56] <Noorideen> anyone is free to help me?
[11:56] <i7c> !ask | Noorideen
[11:56] <wereHamster> ActionParsnip: there is no reason us.archive.ubuntu.com (or the default servers that are in sources.list) shouldn't be reachable through IPv6
[11:56] <pungi_man> then u can install it by typing sudo apt-get install nautilus
[11:56] <i7c> foo357: why lamp? so easy to install apache + php independent nowadays.
[11:56] <Noorideen> i wanna start using ubuntu
[11:57] <Noorideen> but i know nothing about it
[11:57] <Noorideen> i tips for installing
[11:57] <Noorideen> i need*
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> wereHamster: I guess, depends on DNS
[11:57] <zykotick9> Noorideen: download ISO, burn ISO, boot ISO
[11:58] <foo357> i7c: I don't know if it makes any difference but I didn't execute the command "install lamp-server"-whatever
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> zykotick9: you forgot MD5 test ISO ;)
[11:58] <i7c> Noorideen: installation should not be that hard. You'll need some free HD space and you can download the newest version of Ubuntu on the homepage. burn it to a dvd and go. alternatively you can make a usb flash drive work as installation drive.
[11:58] <foo357> i7c: I installed all those packages by themselves
[11:58] <alteregoa> bulubulu is nit runnung
[11:58] <wereHamster> ActionParsnip: dig AAAA us.archive.ubuntu.com. Try it for yourself.
[11:58] <paulus68> Noorideen: use live cd and see if you like it and if you can use ubuntu with the current hardware specs
[11:58] <i7c> foo357: okay, does apache already work? go to http://localhost   in your browser
[11:58] <pungi_man> Noorideen: u can download ISO with wget
[11:58] <wylde_> foo357: the easiest way to get a lamp server installed from repos is 'tasksel' then choose the lamp option.
[11:59] <Noorideen> thank you alot peeps
[11:59] <Phazorx> how do i make my own service startup script? is there am up to date guide? (10.04)
[11:59] <Noorideen> but i tried it once
[11:59] <foo357> i7c: wylde_ yes apache works... actually I migth not need a full blown lamp setup...
[11:59] <Noorideen> and found it hard
[11:59] <Noorideen> i wanna try using it again
[11:59] <Noorideen> i study software engineering
[11:59] <pungi_man> Noordeen:to burn it you can use basero
[11:59] <Noorideen> i believe its better for me than windows
[11:59] <williamdoors> hi
[11:59] <williamdoors> has anyone got a minute to help?
[12:00] <Noorideen> pungi_man: thanks man
[12:00] <pungi_man> I believe it too!!!!!!
[12:00] <paulus68> !ask|williamdoors
[12:01] <williamdoors> I need to transfer my web files from my old server to my new server via command line, how is this done?
[12:01] <wereHamster> williamdoors: man rsync
[12:01] <dlentz> wereHamster, see bug 241305
[12:01] <i7c> williamdoors: for manual transfer you can mount the remote server with sshfs
[12:01] <paulus68> !scp|williamdoors
[12:02] <williamdoors> its a local network
[12:02] <williamdoors> secure isnt important
[12:02] <wereHamster> dlentz: haha. a 4 years old bug.. trivial to fix and yet still unresolved
[12:02] <paulus68> !cp|willamdoors
[12:02] <fidel> williamdoors: there are tons of methods - as you see above
[12:02] <fidel> basically - use whatever you are used too
[12:02] <fidel> i would go for scp - if i would start in cli
[12:03] <i7c> williamdoors: if you mount it with sshfs your remote server will appear as directory in your local filesystem. then you can just use cp -R /.../*
[12:03] <paulus68> fidel: +1
[12:03] <williamdoors> i7c whats the command to mount?
[12:03] <alteregoa> good morning vietnam
[12:03] <Rienzilla> tar over netcat, or rsync
[12:03] <fl1bbl3> williamdoors: personally I would use rsync as Rienzilla and wereHamster suggest
[12:04] <fl1bbl3> you can then choose whether to do it over ssh or not
[12:04] <i7c> williamdoors: sshfs username@remoteserver_address:/path/on/remote /path/local/to/mount/
[12:04] <alteregoa> mount -t /dev/sda-z-1-655535 /path/to/mount
[12:04] <Rienzilla> i7c: will sshfs know ownership, file modes and links?
[12:04] <williamdoors> thanks, i will try
[12:04] <williamdoors> from which machine do i do this from?
[12:04] <fl1bbl3> plus, I like -progress :)
[12:04] <pungi_man> alteregoa: why is -t used?
[12:04] <alteregoa> temporary
[12:05] <alteregoa> err t is type
[12:05] <i7c> Rienzilla: i think so, if the remote is ext
[12:05] <alteregoa> like mount -t smbfs or something
[12:06] <i7c> williamdoors: basically doesn't matter. the one you have better access to ;)
[12:06] <Rienzilla> I'm not sure it does, but ok
[12:06] <alteregoa> godzilla is here wait
[12:07] <williamdoors> i dont have a ssh client installed in either.. but they both have openssh server, can i do this simply from the command line?
[12:07] <i7c> williamdoors: yep, ssh client comes with linux
[12:07] <williamdoors> awesome!
[12:07] <i7c> williamdoors: but you'll need to do sudo apt-get install sshfs   maybe
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> williamdoors: openssh-client is in a default Ubuntu install
[12:07] <williamdoors> sorry for the newb question
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> williamdoors: no worries, its all new to you. It's all learning
[12:08] <pungi_man> thanks alteregoa
[12:08] <williamdoors> the old machine is a synology server.. the new machine is ubuntu server
[12:09] <williamdoors> will this work ok?
[12:09] <MonkeyDust> williamdoors  we once all were beginners ourselves
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> some just earlier than others
[12:11] <i7c> williamdoors: should. just try, if not, nothing will break.
[12:11] <i7c> williamdoors: if you have trouble using sshfs  query me, it's ok.
[12:11] <williamdoors> ok checking my full path now n thx again
[12:12] <i7c> you're welcome.
[12:14] <williamdoors> authenticity of host . . . . cant be established
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> williamdoors: type 'yes' and you will add the key
[12:15] <i7c> williamdoors: meeeh. that comes before entering password?
[12:15] <williamdoors> hmmm it tried but sh: scp was not found
[12:15] <williamdoors> i tried using scp.. i think its because its a stupid synology box...
[12:16] <MonkeyDust> scp is cp over ssh
[12:16] <williamdoors> i really dont want to put ubuntu-desktop...
[12:16] <williamdoors> i'm using an ssh client to log in.. putty
[12:16] <williamdoors> is this correct?
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> williamdoors: putty is an SSH client for both windows and Linux
[12:17] <ahhughes_> is it possible to minimize / focus / maximize an application window on the command line? I want to know if I can somehow switch focus between VM and ubuntu programmatically
[12:17] <i7c> williamdoors: should work. youre on windows connecting to one of the two servers to copy to the other one?
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> ahhughes_: you can use wmctrl
[12:17] <williamdoors> yes but i can use the ubuntu box if you like
[12:18] <williamdoors> the synology box has no monitor nor keyboard but i can ssh into it
[12:18] <ahhughes_> ActionParsnip, cool!!!!
[12:18] <williamdoors> the command on the synology box are not the same as the ubuntu box :(
[12:18] <i7c> williamdoors: that's fine, you can use putty for that.
[12:19] <i7c> williamdoors: so try to ssh the new ubuntu server. when connected install sshfs with apt-get if necessary.
[12:19] <i7c> williamdoors: you can see if it's installed just by typing sshfs in putty without anything, you'll see in the response if it's installed or not.
[12:19] <williamdoors> i7c yes i installed sshfs already
[12:20] <zykotick9> williamdoors: if this is a NAS, do you have anyway of connecting to the files from ubuntu currently?  (though SMB or something?)
[12:20] <paulus68> williamdoors: then use winscp which is a good program to copy from and to windows/linux systems
[12:20] <williamdoors> smb?
[12:20] <zykotick9> williamdoors: windows file sharing
[12:20] <williamdoors> yes it has
[12:21] <i7c> why, he does not have to copy all to windows and put it back to the other server again. he can do that directly.
[12:21] <williamdoors> i can copy to my windows machine no problem
[12:21] <williamdoors> it also has samba
[12:21] <zykotick9> williamdoors: have you tried connecting though the same share from ubuntu?
[12:21] <williamdoors> i7c i'd like to try server to server
[12:22] <williamdoors> i dont know how to without a gui ... . now i feel like a uber newbie
[12:22] <jail71> cia
[12:22] <i7c> williamdoors: ok. so you have an open ssh session to ubuntu now?
[12:22] <jail71> ciao
[12:22] <williamdoors> i7c i have both open in ssh
[12:22] <jail71> !list
[12:22]  * zykotick9 waits for !list from jail71 -- ahh, there it is
[12:22] <paulus68> !it|jail71
[12:22] <i7c> williamdoors: when you opened a session youre in your homefolder. so you can make     mkdir remote-server now and it'll create a new dir in your homedir
[12:23] <williamdoors> i am in the root directory
[12:23] <i7c> not good.
[12:23] <i7c> do cd /home/<yourusername>
[12:24] <williamdoors> on what machine?
[12:24] <jail71> hello
[12:24] <jail71> !list
[12:24] <i7c> your ubuntu one, williamdoors
[12:24] <horse01> Quitte
[12:24] <williamdoors> ok
[12:25] <williamdoors> i7c i'm in my user... its empty
[12:25] <i7c> williamdoors: then do the mkdir thing i wrote above
[12:25] <williamdoors> i7c its done
[12:26] <williamdoors> i7c i now have a directory remote-server
[12:26] <i7c> williamdoors: good. did you name it remote-server ?
[12:26] <williamdoors> i7c yes
[12:26] <i7c> williamdoors: ok. then you can do the following now:  sshfs user_name_at_other_server@server_address:/ remote-server
[12:27] <i7c> williamdoors: for _Example_   williamdoors@192.168.1.137:/ remote-server
[12:27] <i7c> DNS names are also fine
[12:27] <williamdoors> i7c from within the new directory?
[12:27] <gvo> No space after the /
[12:27] <williamdoors> i'll use IP's
[12:28] <i7c> williamdoors: yes from within the new dir
[12:28] <binny> hey! =)
[12:28] <binny> I have a weird question....
[12:28] <gvo> You're entitled to a wierd answer.
[12:28] <i7c> and yes, gvo, a space. these are two arguments
[12:28] <binny> I wanted to know how to deal with ssh tunneling thru an ssh tunnel
[12:28] <binny> lol. I hope i get a weird answer
[12:28] <gvo> i7c Sorry I didn't realize that.
[12:28] <i7c> np.
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> !vnc | binny
[12:29] <i7c> williamdoors: did it work? it should prompt you for password of the other server
[12:29] <binny> so it works fine, both tunnels, but then i'm not sure what port i should connect to....
[12:29] <binny> any ideas?
[12:29] <binny> thanks =)
[12:29] <williamdoors> i7c connection reset by crappy synology server
[12:29] <i7c> williamdoors: you sure it has ssh installed?
[12:29] <i7c> openssh-server*
[12:29] <williamdoors> yes i am using port 22 to ssh into the synology box
[12:30] <williamdoors> errr i dont know what breed of ssh server is in it
[12:30] <williamdoors> i7c its synology
[12:30] <binny> are we both talking about ssh...confusing, lol
[12:30] <i7c> williamdoors: and the two servers are in the same LAN ?
[12:30] <williamdoors> yes.. same subnet
[12:30] <williamdoors> i7c these synology servers are a pain in the.....
[12:31] <williamdoors> i'm happy to see it go
[12:31] <binny> what's this VNC thing someone posted to me?
[12:31] <i7c> williamdoors: weird :-/ it can't be the ssh if it already refuses connection, i guess.
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> binny: shows how to setup a tunnel for VNC, just change the port numbers you want to use
[12:31] <williamdoors> i7c i dont know much about linux, but may i suggest never to buy a synology if you want control over it
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> rastamouse is awesome :)
[12:32] <i7c> williamdoors: i'll remember that :D. question: does this synology thingy share files over http?
[12:32] <i7c> or normal ftp?
[12:32] <williamdoors> hmmm i can enable ftp
[12:33] <i7c> you could enable it then and use wget  recursivly, williamdoors. should work fine if you can access everything via ftp
[12:33] <binny> I don't understand how this helps though....I'm able to ssh into it, my issue is then which port do I use since i have 2 tunnels
[12:33] <williamdoors> i7c i have flashfxp which i tried to make the 2 machines connect together but this synology....
[12:33] <alteregoa> my cat smells like a dog thats a pain in the a
[12:34] <mateo_> what's the question again?
[12:34] <williamdoors> i7c the folder i want is in the web directory of the synology server, that machine has a virtual host
[12:34] <williamdoors> i7c one minute i'll see if i can't enable the ftp in the synology
[12:34] <i7c> williamdoors: it's all fine if you can access it via ftp. you can go into your remote-server dir on the new server and do: wget -r ftp://username:password@1.2.3.4/path/xyz/*
[12:35] <leminhtan47> hello
[12:36] <i7c> hi
[12:36] <williamdoors> i7c the synology has ftp enabled on port 21 (default)
[12:36] <williamdoors> i will try the wget command
[12:38] <spillere> where can i find informatino on how to install a encrypted vpn on my dedicated server?
[12:39] <williamdoors> i7c we have a winner!
[12:39] <i7c> spillere: easiest to configure is openvpn. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN
[12:39] <i7c> williamdoors: :)
[12:39] <xtreme> guys, i installed windows, and lost ubuntu.
[12:40] <williamdoors> i7c now how do i copy the files from /usr/me/uploadeddir to /etc/www/uploadeddir
[12:40] <xtreme> i tried to recover it using grub install
[12:40] <auronandace> !grub | xtreme
[12:40] <xtreme> but only windows 7 came in boot menu
[12:40] <Lint> !dpkg synology
[12:40] <i7c> williamdoors: copy -R . /etc/www/uploadeddir
[12:40] <williamdoors> hmmm it dosent appear to have copied all the folders in the that directory
[12:40] <auronandace> xtreme: use a livecd and check your partitions
[12:40] <i7c> williamdoors: sorry  cp
[12:41] <i7c> williamdoors: not copy
[12:41] <xtreme> did that.. one sec let me show what i did
[12:41] <williamdoors> only the base dir, not recursively
[12:41] <xtreme> !pastebin
[12:41] <vlt> ActionParsnip: No, I still don't know. When I need a "RAM drive", implies this a file system for you?
[12:42] <xtreme> http://paste.ubuntu.com/935389/
[12:42] <xtreme> this is what i did, booted using live disc
[12:42] <williamdoors> i7c it only copied 11mb - there is 87mb in the nested folders within
[12:42] <ActionParsnip> vlt: yes, its a storage drive, in RAM...
[12:42] <xtreme> error was ls-a cannot access dev/sda2 to dev/sda5
[12:43] <i7c> williamdoors: that's strange :-/  do you have access to the subfolders?
[12:43] <vlt> ActionParsnip: Ok. For me it's just a drive (empty). And is there a way to create a size limited block device in RAM without an losetup'd file in a tmpfs?
[12:43] <williamdoors> i can see the synology box on my winblows machine
[12:44] <Lint> I remember Linux was using a normal bootloader which was not damaged by windows installs. was it so necessary to replace it with a large grub2?
[12:44] <williamdoors> i7c thats how i can see it didnt copy all the files
[12:44] <williamdoors> i7c i go check
[12:45] <xtreme> grub could only detect windows 7..
[12:45] <auronandace> Lint: what? windows will overwrite the mbr no matter what bootloader you put there
[12:45] <xtreme> Lint : i am new to linux, i just followed the tutorial
[12:45] <naftilos76> hi everyone, i am on Ubuntu 10.10 and i just installed (not through a repo) libreoffice 3.52. As i noticed in similar situations when i install libreoffice in this way printing preferences do not affect printing which means that if i select printing to take place through rear tray the printer prints as usual from the casette as usual. Does anybody have any clue what is going on?
[12:45] <i7c> xtreme: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[12:45] <xtreme> and auronandace is right.. windows formated my boot drive to ntfs and reinstalled its loaders
[12:45] <Lint> auronandace, windows created ¨DOS/Other OS¨ entry back then
[12:46] <Lint> *was creating
[12:46] <auronandace> Lint: back then? what during 98?
[12:47] <i7c> williamdoors: you could copy the files on synology to another dir where you have full access or you can change reading rights... which i not recommend, but if it's the problem this could solve it ^^
[12:47] <Lint> naftilos76, looks like a LO bug
[12:48] <pungi_man> xtreme: it has detected my xp. There will be something wrong with ur grub
[12:48] <williamdoors> i7c i could easy copy the synology files to the windows box
[12:48] <williamdoors> i7c would that help?
[12:49] <Lint> he just reboot probably
[12:49] <i7c> what is the "windows box" o.O ?
[12:49] <williamdoors> just my desktop windows 7
[12:50] <i7c> well sure you can download it to your local machine and upload it on the other server... but think of a solution to upload it ;) maybe samba?
[12:50] <williamdoors> then i could ftp the files to the new ubuntu server
[12:50] <i7c> sure. works.
[12:50] <i7c> gotta make a phone call....
[12:50] <williamdoors> ya i have samba in the synology
[12:50] <williamdoors> okies thx!
[12:50] <williamdoors> brb
[12:50] <Lint> I cannot access my shared partition from Ubuntu
[12:51] <Lint> It says all files are owned by 500:500
[12:51] <Lint> In other distro I can access it, and I have plain 1000 uid there, as in Ubuntu
[12:52] <MasterOfDisaster> Lint: which fs?
[12:52] <Lint> ext2 or ext3, Iḿ not sure
[12:53] <MasterOfDisaster> check with "cat /proc/mounts"
[12:53] <Phazorx> how do i make my own service startup script? is there am up to date guide? (10.04)
[12:54] <jrib> !upstart | Phazorx
[12:54] <Lint> Itś EXT3
[12:54] <jrib> Phazorx: make sure you check out the cookbook: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/
[12:55] <williamdoors> can anyone suggest a good ftp-server for ubunut?
[12:55] <MasterOfDisaster> Lint: then chown the directory to the desired uid & gid.
[12:55] <jrib> !ftpd | williamdoors
[12:55] <williamdoors> recommend?
[12:56] <myhero> where is the current session of firefox in live usb ubuntu situated so as to sve it and afterwards load it again ?
[12:56] <spillere> where can i find informatino on how to install a encrypted vpn on my dedicated server?
[12:56] <jrib> williamdoors: I would visit each site for those and choose based on that
[12:56] <railsraider> how do i completely reset iptables ? iptables -F doesn;t do the trick
[12:56] <gnuskool> i have a small home network that works fine, i have an isp hosted website and mail -but now i would like to create an intranet using my registered external domain name but as local.example.com -example.com being my isp registered name -is this the right way to do it -or should i call my intranet whatever i like?
[12:56] <paulus68> !vpn|spillere
[12:56] <williamdoors> jrib thanks
[12:56] <Lint> I would prefer why I have this first
[12:56] <Lint> *to know
[12:57] <Puma1337> railsraider, what happens when you type iptables -F?
[12:57] <Zwirc> Hi!
[12:57] <railsraider> server hangs
[12:57] <railsraider> i tried that from the console too
[12:57] <Zwirc> i have installed MySql on my ubuntu server. how do i know what host to use for mysql connect from others than localhost?
[12:57] <Puma1337> when you type iptables -L how many rules do you have?
[12:58] <railsraider> i've installed arno-forewall but can;t get it to work
[12:58] <railsraider> so its half way configued
[12:58] <ActionParsnip> Zwirc: cat /etc/hostname
[12:58] <myhero> where is the current session of firefox in live usb ubuntu situated so as to save and use it afterwards by loading it again ?
[12:59] <railsraider> Pumpkin-:  I did iptables -F
[12:59] <ActionParsnip> myhero: which release?
[12:59] <railsraider> then iptables -L and its empty
[12:59] <myhero> oneiric
[12:59] <Puma1337> so then you have flushed the rules
[12:59] <Zwirc> ActionParsnip: I have just wrote my name there :P
[12:59] <ActionParsnip> myhero: should be saved in the user's home folder like it does in an installed OS
[12:59] <Zwirc> so then it is name.ip ?
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> Zwirc: you can use hostname or the IP
[13:00] <ray9na> I was wondering: In /home/myname/bin I have two .folders and one .autoreg -- all 3 are completely empty. Is it safe to delete them?
[13:00] <Zwirc> ok, so it sould work to just use ip as host?
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> Zwirc: sure
[13:00] <Zwirc> tnx
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> ray9na: could move or rename them and test, if you get issues then put them back :)
[13:01] <williamdoors> !proftpd
[13:01] <myhero> action can you be more specific and write the exact path coz its not there in home folder...!!!
[13:02] <ray9na> ActionParsnip: Okay, thanks. I'm trying to figure out how I lost an icon. I gave up and am trying to just completely uninstall and re-install the program, see if that does the trick.
[13:02] <ActionParsnip> myhero: ~/.mozilla/firefox   same as in an installed OS
[13:03] <ray9na> myhero: Did you make sure you can view hidden files?
[13:03] <myhero> yes
[13:03] <solexious> Hello all, my youtube video playback as gone blue, anyone know how I could fix this?
[13:04] <xissburg> I unzipped a zip file in my downloads folder and it spread a lot of files around. How can I rm these files? Perhaps based on their creation date or something?
[13:04] <ray9na> myhero: Alrighty. Doesn't hurt to check. :)
[13:06] <Xlaits> Ok, having some trouble installing Sun's Java...
[13:07] <metalfan_> hi
[13:08] <metalfan_> is the precise installer able to resize a linux filesystem?
[13:08] <Xlaits> Anyone know how to install Java? SunMicrosystems' Java, to be precise...
[13:08] <railsraider> Puma1337: i see a lot of   /sbin/iptables: (1) iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.
[13:08] <myhero> yes i have unhidden the files so as to be able to see all the files....there are 2 folders 1. Crash Report and 2. oey45bpo.default and 3.profiles.ini file...but no session backup file....although there are two files in .default folder namely sessionstore.bak and sessionstore.js....are these two the sessions backup file ???
[13:08] <railsraider> Puma1337: when i try to install arno
[13:08] <Puma1337> I don't really have any experience using arno
[13:10] <pestilence> is there any way to make the area used for resizing windows bigger?  it seems i spend a minute every time i want to resize a window just trying to position the mouse correctly
[13:11] <auronandace> pestilence: slow down the cursor, maybe?
[13:11] <myhero> ray and action...
[13:11] <myhero> yes i have unhidden the files so as to be able to see all the files....there are 2 folders 1. Crash Report and 2. oey45bpo.default and 3.profiles.ini file...but no session backup file....although there are two files in .default folder namely sessionstore.bak and sessionstore.js....are these two the sessions backup file ???
[13:11] <pestilence> auronandace: no, that's not what i want.
[13:12] <auronandace> pestilence: use a theme that makes the borders bigger?
[13:12] <pestilence> it just seems like the width of the grab bar is on the order of 1px
[13:12] <pestilence> auronandace: hrm.  maybe that would work.
[13:13] <pestilence> auronandace: nope, all the default installed themes hvae the same width.
[13:14] <williamdoors> i7c :) got my files there :)
[13:14] <williamdoors> i7c thx for your help!
[13:15] <i7c> williamdoors: glad i could help. :)
[13:15] <pestilence> oooh, alt+middleclick resizes the window no matter where you click
[13:15] <pestilence> guess that's what i'll do.
[13:15] <pestilence> http://askubuntu.com/questions/4109/how-do-i-increase-the-resize-margin-on-windows
[13:16] <pestilence> unbelievable.  the default  width of the resize border *is* 1 pixel!
[13:16] <auronandace> pestilence: screen real estate is important for a netbook interface
[13:17] <pestilence> auronandace: certainly ubuntu is installed on more than just netbooks.  i'm on a monitor with 1920x1080 resolution.  i can afford a couple of extra pixels on the border
[13:17] <pestilence> and even if the border is only 1 pixel, make the resize area more than 1 pixel.  you don't have to see the resize area...
[13:18] <auronandace> pestilence: i don't use unity, i use xfce, also i don't use netbooks but that is the reason behind the border width
[13:18] <railsraider> anyone knows how to get arno-firewall to work?
[13:18] <railsraider> i get a lot of   /sbin/iptables: (1) iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.
[13:18] <railsraider> when i try to start it
[13:18] <pestilence> auronandace: but you should agree that it's pretty weak reasoning.  other windows managers (e.g. windows 7, OS X) don't have this problem.
[13:19] <auronandace> pestilence: i don't have this problem either
[13:19] <pestilence> auronandace: you must have a super high-resolution mouse compared to me.  or more sensitive wrists.  but googling "ubuntu window border resize" proves that i aint alone :)
[13:20] <pestilence> the most annoying thing is that some of the results are from 4 years ago.  how can stuff like this go unfixed for that long??  that's one of the things that drives me insane about ubuntu
[13:20] <auronandace> pestilence: maybe file a bug report or a feature request
[13:20] <pestilence> auronandace: both exist.
[13:20] <myhero> yes i have unhidden the files so as to be able to see all the files....there are 2 folders in ~/.mozilla/firefox - 1. Crash Report and 2. oey45bpo.default and 3.profiles.ini file...but no session backup file....although there are two files in .default folder namely sessionstore.bak and sessionstore.js....are these two the sessions backup file ???
[13:21] <pestilence> anyhow, back to work
[13:28] <malibu> Hi there, is anyone aware of a file manager that can put move/copy tasks into a background process?

[13:41] <gvandeweyer> I feel that setting it at 4M does reduce the load of the rpciod
[13:41] <gvandeweyer> but is higher still save ?

[13:42] <bazhang> myhero, if someone knows they will answer, no need to ask individuals
[13:44] <bazhang> Noorideen, if you need help with your wireless, you need to us the chipset, type lspci in the terminal and paste.ubuntu.com with it
[13:44] <sauevaem> Can someone help me solve 'pulseaudio configured for per-user sessions saned disabled; edit /etc/default/saned' error?

[13:51] <pungi_man> is there any assembly language for linux????
[13:52] <mawkishness> ?
[13:52] <hoodedice> Hi
[13:53] <hoodedice> Does Xubuntu install drivers during its installation, or do we have to manually download them?
[13:53] <jrib> hoodedice: try #xubuntu
[13:53] <auronandace> hoodedice: which drivers are you thinking of?
[13:54] <hoodedice> Graphics to be precise
[13:54] <pungi_man> hoodedice: Mostly it does after recognizing the hardware but sometimes you have to configure graphics drivers
[13:54] <hoodedice> No one'sreplying in #xubuntu
[13:54] <hoodedice> How do I do that?
[13:54] <auronandace> hoodedice: you'd need to install the graphics drivers from the repo
[13:55] <auronandace> hoodedice: unless you are using intel
[13:55] <hoodedice> So all intel drivers are installed by default?
[13:55] <auronandace> hoodedice: yes, they are in the kernel
[13:56] <hoodedice> alright, how can I check which ones are installed?
[13:56] <auronandace> hoodedice: what card do you have?
[13:56] <iceroot> hoodedice: better is to know which are loaded
[13:56] <hoodedice> Intel GMA3100
[13:56] <hoodedice> Dont start laughing
[13:56] <d3m0nk> hoodedice, I think all the common display drivers are available by default... :) or ubuntu would suggest you one... after intsall...
[13:57] <sauevaem> I had such good impression of this channel when someone helped me with drivers problem ;_;
[13:57] <hoodedice> Well, then thanks a lot guys
[13:57] <auronandace> hoodedice: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[13:57] <hoodedice> (Time for me to get an NVidia) :p
[13:57] <hoodedice> xbuntu 11.10
[13:58] <mawkishness> .
[13:58] <d3m0nk> hoodedice, Intel GMA 3000s are cool :)
[13:58] <d3m0nk> I've got one myself...
[13:58] <d3m0nk> should work out of the box :)
[13:58] <hoodedice> Yeah, but they HOG ystem memory
[13:59] <hoodedice> And its even worse when you've got MY system config
[13:59] <d3m0nk> hoodedice, you can only  ask so much from 'em :)
[13:59] <d3m0nk> for the price you paid
[13:59] <d3m0nk> hehe
[13:59] <hoodedice> Lol, wait till I grow up, no one can stop me from buying my own PC then :P
[14:00] <pungi_man> can u restore your pc to a specific time?????
[14:00] <auronandace> hoodedice: that driver would certainly be supported in the kernel, its from 2008
[14:00] <hoodedice> ok auro
[14:00] <supernova> anyone using a belkin usb adpater
[14:00] <hoodedice> Ill be going now, thanks a lot, you guys rock !!!
[14:00] <supernova> for wifi access
[14:01] <iceroot> pungi_man: not by default, you have to use a backup solution
[14:01] <iceroot> !backup | pungi_man
[14:01] <thefroyo> hi, i use evolution as my pim solution. in order to acccess my company calendar I use carddav. everything works fine, but on login (from lightdm) I get a password prompt for access to these carddav calendars. the password is prefilled, but it still asks me to click OK to connect. Does anybody have a clue of how to get rid of that prompt?
[14:02] <pungi_man> thanks iceroot and ubottu!!!
[14:02] <munsking> hello, im using landscape to manage my ubuntu server but my server doesnt upload hardware information, not even the basic stuff from the computer description, any way to fix this or do it manually?
[14:03] <supernova> hello
[14:03] <pungi_man> but what is the difference between cloning and backing up ubottu
[14:03] <fidel> pungi_man: ubottu is a bot
[14:03] <iceroot> pungi_man: clone = complete system dump with partition layout and so on, backup = save your data
[14:04] <pungi_man> sorry ubottu!!!
[14:04] <compdoc> pungi_man, right. With a clone, you can restore it to a drive and be up and running in minutes
[14:04] <pungi_man> thanks iceroot!!!
[14:05] <compdoc> you need both an image and backups
[14:05] <pungi_man> even after a format and a windows xp also, compdoc??
[14:06] <compdoc> you dual-boot?
[14:06] <pungi_man> yes, compdoc
[14:06] <StepNjump> exit
[14:06] <StepNjump> exit
[14:06] <Noorideen> is there a way to move files from win7 to ubuntu?
[14:07] <auronandace> Noorideen: copy and paste
[14:07] <compdoc> Noorideen, use samba
[14:07] <Noorideen> thank you
[14:07] <supernova> is anyone using a belkin usb wireless adapter
[14:09] <usr13> Noorideen: several ways....
[14:09] <pengw> hi all
[14:10] <pengw> one thing is concerned: which ubuntu edition is fastest with desktop effects
[14:10] <Xlaits> Hey, everyone, Having some Pangolion troubles... Java just hates me...
[14:10] <pengw> i am thinking is that 10.04 is faster than 11.10?
[14:10] <fidel> Xlaits: #ubuntu+1 for 12.04
[14:10] <nesusvet> шш
[14:11] <fidel> pengw: using what desktopo env?
[14:11] <pengw> hi fidel i like to use unity or gnome 2
[14:11] <pengw> I do not use gnome 3 at all
[14:11] <auronandace> pengw: 10.04 uses gnome2, 11.10 uses unity built on top of gnome3
[14:12] <Cygnus-X1> pengw: Did you hear about MATE
[14:12] <nesusvet>  
[14:12] <fidel> pengw: i doubt you'll find a serious analysis about the speed/resource-usage of all major desktop environment matching your hardware ;)
[14:12] <pengw> currently i still stick with 11.04 since it does provide  a gnome 2 classic mode
[14:12] <Xtopherus> Does anyone know about a pen testing room on freenode? Im looking for people to converse with that have similar degree's
[14:13] <auronandace> pengw: gnome2 will eventually die, why prolong the agony?
[14:14] <pungi_man> the user defined session is the fastest for me
[14:14] <pengw> yes gnome 2 is going to die that is too bad.
[14:15] <pungi_man> gnome 2 is better than gnome 3!!!
[14:15] <auronandace> pengw: so why not start looking for an alternative now? instead you are just prolonging that process
[14:15] <cldwalker> hi, anyone know a way to skip the configuration dialog when installing postfix? DEBIAN_FRONTEND=interactive and -y aren't working
[14:15] <pengw> So have anyone tried 12.04 is it faster than 11.04???
[14:16] <Xtopherus> pengw
[14:16] <Xtopherus> yes
[14:16] <oilman> Hi ya all! I've recently bought a retrolink USB nes controller. any of you guys tried to set this up in fceux?
[14:16] <pungi_man> in starting it is but after a week or so it slows down,pengw
[14:16] <fiddyspence> in case anyone is interested - had an annoyance with 11.10 live cd where it wrapped the nameserver values in single quotes in /etc/resolv.conf (as supplied by DHCP) and thusly made dns name resolution fail....  known bug?
[14:17] <Xtopherus> 11.10 is really unstable
[14:17] <compdoc> never happened to me
[14:17] <fiddyspence> that would do it i suppose :)
[14:17] <pengw> with fancy 11.10 I just cant configure anything
[14:18] <compdoc> not unstable at all for me, and I would have to guess for most ppl
[14:18] <pengw> in a proper way unless trying to heck it.
[14:18] <auronandace> pengw: unity isn't the only option
[14:18] <Xtopherus> weird, 11.10 blew chunks for me
[14:18] <Xtopherus> i staied with 11.04
[14:18] <Xtopherus> running pinguy on my netbook and backtrack on another computer for work
[14:18] <bazhang> !ot | Xtopherus
[14:19] <Xtopherus> lame
[14:19] <bazhang> pengw, any support questions?
[14:19] <Xtopherus> ill shut up until someone needs "support then" -.-
[14:20] <bazhang> Xtopherus, please take chit chat elsewhere
[14:20] <Xtopherus> yerr,
[14:21] <timing> Hi, how do I see the windows on the current workspace?
[14:21] <pengw> omg there is actually a pattern filter built-in the channel?
[14:22] <usr13> timing: Windows from another workspace?
[14:22] <compdoc> are you not in the current worksapce?
[14:22] <dekuked> hey I'm having trouble installing ubuntu on an acer aspire 722 (it's using an amd c60)

[14:22] <usr13> timing: What do you mean "see" them?
[14:22] <Xtopherus> I need to find a way to use MS word on ubuntu, its killing me
[14:22] <compdoc> dekuked, Ive seen other ppl with the same problem on that cpu

[14:23] <bazhang> dekuked, #ubuntu+1 for that
[14:23] <dekuked> with just the install? or running anything?
[14:23] <dekuked> what the hell is #ubuntu+1?
[14:23] <donavan01> im currently using Xchat is there a better IRC program out there specifially is there one with a larger text box for entering the text to be sent
[14:23] <bazhang> dekuked, its the correct channel to ask about 12.04 in
[14:23] <compdoc> a place to talk about un-released versions of ubuntu
[14:23] <TzeM> how install this jre-6u31-linux-x64.bin
[14:23] <dekuked> ah, ok
[14:23] <dekuked> thank you guys

[14:25] <auronandace> !info libreoffice-gtk | pengw
[14:26] <donavan01> Xtopherus ...I can but I really need something that lets me use mutlilines because I often have to proof read what I right to make sure it makes senses and often time I need to write rather lengthy statements and the single line gets hard to read
[14:26] <Xtopherus> Im not sure what to suggest, lol perhaps a bigger monitor haha
[14:26] <Xtopherus> try bitchX though i like it
[14:26] <munsking> can anyone offer help with my landscape problem?
[14:27] <Xtopherus> on the other hand i am content with xchat though
[14:27] <TzeM> how install thiw java?   jre-6u31-linux-x64.bin
[14:27] <pengw> tzem you can search the ubuntu wiki and i belive there is a script for install it even help you download it
[14:28]  * Xtopherus is away: no matter how you shake and dance the last few drops fall on your pants.
[14:28] <donavan01> xopherus.... yeah right now I have a huge monitor as it is I think I may own the worlds largest laptop its 1600x900 native but I will get bitch x a look
[14:28] <pengw> but that just for java 6 not java 7
[14:28] <bazhang> Xtopherus, disable that

[14:31] <paulus68> !es|CR7
[14:31] <rabbi1> still waiting for 12.04 :)
[14:31] <donavan01> xtopherus when are you getting bitchx from I tried apt-get like it tells me too but no dice
[14:32] <zoidberg-> hey guys how do i redirect all port 443 traffic on my local machine to another machine on the network port 8007 successfully covering all bases?
[14:32] <sanjay> hello sir, i upgraded to new ubuntu  now my display is not  full in  monitor..  can u help me?
[14:32] <auronandace> donavan01: he left, and bitchx is no longer maintained so it isn't in the repos
[14:33] <donavan01> auronandace .. it looked abandonded to me too just wanted to make sure I wasnt looking at the wrong location ... thanks
[14:34] <auronandace> donavan01: no worries, you could try irssi or weechat if you want a terminal based irc client
[14:34] <sanjay> hello sir, i upgraded to new ubuntu  now my display is not  full in  monitor..  can u help me?
[14:35] <donavan01> auronadace ... no so much looking for a terminal based solution as just finding something that has a bigger/multiline input box for typing I love xchat I just wish it would do that
[14:37] <fl1bbl3> irssi is great
[14:42] <donavan01> well turns out I already had the IRC program I need... pidgin can do exactly what I wanted it to do... no to get it to automatically connect to all my channels
[14:49] <Xtreme> worked... did some manual configurations :)
[14:49] <Xtreme> guys can i change boot menus background and all?
[14:49] <auronandace> !yay | Xtreme
[14:49] <Xtreme> thanks auronandace..
[14:52] <Xtreme> auronandace: is there any app to graphically design grub 2 boot menu?
[14:52] <Xtreme> like background wallpaper, etc etc
[14:53] <auronandace> Xtreme: i've heard of burg but i wouldn't recomend it, i prefer stock and functional grub
[14:53] <auronandace> Xtreme: i don't see the point of a pretty boot
[14:53] <jack_laptop> an app? not to my knowledge. there is a good ubuntu article on how to configure it though. perhaps it has some details on that
[14:55] <usuario> Holaa
[14:55] <MonkeyDu1t> Xtreme  in my experience, eye candy tends to slow down performance

[15:11] <hrolf> Hi #ubuntu, my touchpad has stopped working after installing updates.
[15:11] <hrolf> How do I figure out which particular was the cause?
[15:14] <hrolf> Hi #ubuntu, my touchpad has stopped working after installing updates.
[15:14] <hrolf> How do I figure out which particular was the cause?
[15:15] <Wolfsherz> hrolf, is it a touch or clickpad?
[15:15] <zozy> anybody installed vmware player successfully under 12-04beta?
[15:15] <hrolf> Wolfsherz: What's the difference between them (I don't know)
[15:16] <Wolfsherz> hrolf, clickpad has the buttons integrated into the touch-sensitive area.
[15:16] <Tartarus> Hey all, I have a problem with ipv6 not coming up quickly or at all sometimes
[15:16] <Wolfsherz> hrolf, touchpad usually has buttons seperated from the sensitive area
[15:17] <hrolf> Wolfsherz: I can do click on the touch area too, so I guess it is a clickpad
[15:18] <hrolf> Wolfsherz: Plus, there is no touchpad tab under the Mouse and Touchpad settings window
[15:20] <MonkeyDust> zozy  better ask in #ubuntu+1
[15:20] <zozy> mkkay
[15:20] <zozy> what is the difference between the cahnnels?
[15:20] <Wolfsherz> hrolf, unfortunately clickpad support in ubuntu is really bad. they know for long about the issues and, for me, it has not improved since then.
[15:20] <MonkeyDust> zozy  #ubuntu+1 is for 12.04
[15:20] <capiscuas> hello, i have a weird question, i have to launch a software (libreoffice) with a different language interface... so i want to pass him some env variable with a different language
[15:20] <zozy> i see,thanks :)
[15:20] <hrolf> Wolfsherz: But it was working fine till yesterday when I did some updates and now it isn't scrolling
[15:21] <auronandace> zozy: #ubuntu is for the stable releases, #ubuntu+1 is for the dev release
[15:21] <hrolf> Wolfsherz: I believe it is because of the updates.
[15:21] <hrolf> Wolfsherz: How do I figure out for sure?
[15:21] <hrolf> Wolfsherz: Which particular package was it etc?
[15:21] <zozy> auronandace: thanks for the info:)
[15:21] <hrolf> Wolfsherz: Also "xinput list" doesn't show something like touchpad etc
[15:22] <kresowv> [17:22:21] adam smith: #chemistry
[15:22] <Pici> kresowv: ?
[15:23] <kresowv> hi
[15:23] <Wolfsherz> hrolf, sorry can not help you with that... just saying that clickpads do not work well with ubuntu. mine is working now and then...
[15:24] <Pici> hrolf: What updates did you install?
[15:25] <Lint> well I cannot access stuff in a shareddisk partition
[15:25] <Lint> I have uid=1000 in both systems, but ubuntu shows everything owned by 500:500
[15:25] <Lint> obviously the other distro can access every thing
[15:25] <hrolf> Pici: Quite many (were like 96 or 95 updates, total of around 200 mb of downloads)
[15:26] <Pici> hrolf: This is in 11.10?
[15:26] <hrolf> Pici: Yes
[15:26] <fishcooker> hello fellas
[15:26] <fishcooker> i want to reset password..
[15:26] <fishcooker> i don't remember the pass root
[15:26] <hrolf> Pici: xinput list doesn't show any touchpad, plus no "Touchpad" tab under Mouse and Touchpad
[15:27] <fishcooker> any clue or experience there?
[15:28] <mizifih> anyone here tried the MCE remote controller with 11.10 or 12.04?
[15:28] <hrolf> Pici: There is no mouse but it is showing in ouput of "xinput list" that core pointer PS/2 Generic Mouse
[15:28] <mizifih> by MCE I mean Microsoft Media Center Remote Controller
[15:29] <Pici> mizifih: I was just researching that the other day for my own HTPC, and I found that it should work, although I don't have the hardware to test it myself.
[15:29] <Pici> hrolf: Does it show up in lspci ?
[15:29] <mizifih> Pici: it kinda worked out of the box
[15:30] <olegb> fishcooker: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword
[15:30] <rogst> hrolf have you tried to reload the mouse kernel module? "sudo modprobe -r psmouse; sudo modprobe psmouse"
[15:30] <mizifih> Pici: but keys are akward, like "enter" instead of "ok". Enter is a small key almost hidden on the controller, LOL
[15:31] <hrolf> rogst: That worked. Thanks.
[15:31] <hrolf> rogst: What was the problem?
[15:33] <rogst> hrolf: not sure :)
[15:33] <nimesh_accenture> how do i identify the type of a filesystem without the -T option in df?
[15:33] <Pici> mizifih: This guide is specific to mythtv, but it should be easy to adapt to whatever you need to use the remote with: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MCE_Remote
[15:34] <Duality> hey
[15:35] <L3top> nimesh_accenture: is the fs mounted?
[15:35] <Duality> i am trying to copy something from my server and it says: scp robert@213.10.234.78:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/server.crt /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/
[15:35] <L3top> Cause I would use mount
[15:35] <Duality> scp: /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/server.crt: Permission denied
[15:35] <fishcooker> thanks olegb
[15:36] <appi_uppi> pdedit get's close when i try to edit
[15:36] <rogst> Duality: you dont have access to that file with you user
[15:37] <rogst> Duality: run it with sudo
[15:37] <phenoman> hi, i need little help, how to create bootable x86 image using syslinux???
[15:38] <Duality> rogst, i am logged in as root
[15:38] <Duality> (sudo su
[15:38] <rogst> Duality: ah I see
[15:39] <Duality> do i need to give special premissions to server.crt?
[15:39] <Duality> permissions
[15:39] <rogst> Duality: the user robert does not have ead access on the servre
[15:39] <dwarder> hey everyone, can anyone suggest me a nettop kind of PC?
[15:39] <rogst> server
[15:39] <Onixs> any prebuilt NAS based on Gentoo?
[15:39] <dwarder> for about 200$ or less
[15:39] <Onixs> err ubuntu
[15:39] <Onixs> lol
[15:39] <dwarder> will run ubuntu on it :)
[15:40] <nimesh_accenture> L3Top: i did cat /proc/mounts and i got my answer!
[15:40] <Duality> rogst, how would i give read access ?
[15:41] <bergle> Hi all
[15:43] <Duality> rogst, i replace robert with root :) so it works now :)
[15:43] <rogst> Duality: you should disable root login with ssh, a security best practise
[15:44] <dbgster> how can I create a new envier variable using another one?
[15:44] <dbgster> BASE_HOME=/home/ubuntu
[15:44] <dbgster> PROJ_HOME=$BASE_HOME + '/.….'
[15:44] <dbgster> something like that?
[15:44] <Lint> V1=${V2}:/test
[15:45] <Pici> dbgster: #bash would be the best place to ask such a question.
[15:45] <Duality> ok will do after i am done :)

[15:48] <dbgster> llutz: ok thanks, i like that.
[15:58] <ichbinder> hello. I have a laptop with a very limited amount of disk space. With some programs installed, windows now desires more disk space than I thought when I set up the system a few months ago. I now want to shrink the Ubuntu home and root partitions by some GB and add that space to the Windows ntfs partition. What's the best way? Use something like gparted from a live-CD? Do current Ubuntu Live-CDs still offer gparted?
[15:59] <dtcrshr> ichbinder: theres a gparted live cd for that
[15:59] <Pici> ichbinder: and yes, the live cd has gparted as well.
[16:00] <dtcrshr> is the fastest way to do that, keep in mind that ntfs is a pain to mess with its size. dont let gparted round up the cylinders when it ask and should be fine
[16:00] <ichbinder> dtcrshr: ah, nice. And also thanks to Pici. So I am free to choose... nice
[16:00] <dtcrshr> i recommend gparted live cause its specific and WAY lighter than ubuntu live cd
[16:00] <ichbinder> dtcrshr: yeah, read that in the documentation somewhere... :-/
[16:00] <ichbinder> dtcrshr: yeah, i guess i will go with that.
[16:00] <dtcrshr> http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[16:01] <dtcrshr> conezilla has some tools too, if you want to keep a knife on the pocket
[16:02] <ichbinder> conezilla?
[16:02] <LAKHTAK> hey need help :( any one here ?:!|?
[16:02] <dtcrshr> if you want to have some tools to mess arround with your disks, keep them in your tool box = gparted live + clonezilla + ubcd
[16:02] <compdoc> clonezilla
[16:03] <LAKHTAK> o.O?
[16:03] <dtcrshr> wut
[16:03] <dtcrshr> aheuaheu
[16:03] <LAKHTAK> hey how can i get mouse click sound or keyboard sound on ubuntu
[16:03] <dtcrshr> conezilla is a magic rolling machine for huge joints, better not use it with gparted you may get distracted
[16:03] <LAKHTAK> like mac (lion)
[16:03] <dtcrshr> typo error, i meatn cLonezilla
[16:04] <Guest36428> I'm leveling UP

[16:11] <Griwes> is it possible to mount (anyhow) two partitions at root mountpoint?
[16:11] <wylde> rinzler: try the adm group.
[16:12] <Slypo> Why does my computer insist on ignoring my Ubuntu live CD even if everything is working fine? It keeps jumping to Hard Disk.. If I unplug the HD, it reads the Live  CD. I'm going nuts!
[16:12] <auronandace> Griwes: no
[16:12] <Griwes> Slypo: set boot order in bios
[16:12] <bazhang> Slypo, select in bios first boot CD
[16:12] <Slypo> Didn't work
[16:12] <Griwes> k, looks like I have to boot one of those stupid live cds to expand it
[16:12] <Griwes> Slypo: then you did something wrong
[16:13] <Griwes> ...even if it's nearly impossible to do anything wrong in BIOS
[16:14] <rinzler> wylde: thx
[16:15] <wylde> rinzler: np :)
[16:15] <Slypo> I even removed the HD option from the boot order. The only way to make the CD work was unplugging the HD. My PC has his own will _ _*
[16:15] <conscientia> Is there a good window management program for Ubuntu 10.04?
[16:16] <fl1bbl3> conscientia: screen :)
[16:16] <Fyodorovna> Slypo, look at the screen when it boots generally it tells you what key or keys to hit to get another boot from menu, sometimes it is f12 look it up on the web with your computer model.
[16:16] <Pl3nar1us> Hello all
[16:16] <DigDeeper> Hmm..
[16:16] <DigDeeper> let me check
[16:17] <Slypo> Tried that too. Doesn't work
[16:17] <Slypo> Could that be something with the Master / Slave thing?
[16:18] <Fyodorovna> Slypo, if you don't use nics and several people have addressed you we don't know who your addressing.
[16:18] <Slypo> Cause this PC has none configured
[16:19] <Slypo> Anyone that could help, Fyodorovna.
[16:19] <wylde> Slypo: you're the only one who can see your screen. We can't help you without detailed info. Technically your issue is not Ubuntu related and is off topic here. The best place for you to start is your motherboards manual, either hardcopy that came with it or download it from the manufacturers website.
[16:20] <Slypo> I'll try that, wylde. Thanks to everyone

[16:45] <bazhang> jardineworks, did you try with xrandr? the front end arandr?
[16:45] <jardineworks> I don't know what that is to be honest. here is what I have done...

[17:03] <fellayaboy> how can i setup my sftp server to have a web interface so that i can click and download files from a web browser from anywhere in the world?
[17:04] <DigDeeper> Is there a way to auto run an application on the panel?
[17:05] <fellayaboy> which version of ubuntu ur running digdeeper
[17:05] <DigDeeper> 10.04
[17:05] <milen8204> SunTsu, my smart using OS Android, I had made a USB tethering and I am trying to create APN point
[17:05] <Pici> fellayaboy: You'd need to setup a web server separately, ssh has nothing to do with that.
[17:05] <fellayaboy> id have to use apache then pici
[17:05] <SunTsu> fellayaboy: I don't think there is a web frontend to sftp, that really wouldn't make sense, security wise
[17:05] <fellayaboy> right pici?
[17:05] <Pici> fellayaboy: Yes, you could.
[17:05] <skwishy> Is there no more screensavers shipped with the latest ubuntu?
[17:05] <fellayaboy> okay thats what i figured
[17:06] <Pici> skwishy: 11.10 has screensavers.
[17:06] <bazhang> skwishy, 12.04?
[17:06] <SunTsu> milen8204: android only can offer internet access via tethering, not use the pc's. But still this isn't #android
[17:06] <DigDeeper> I am using the indicator virtualbox app. Although I can add the app to the panel but I want to have the pre launched app in the panel..
[17:06] <skwishy> on 12.04, seems like the lock screen is just a black screen now.
[17:06] <fellayaboy> ive been using firefox filezilla or whatev er its called and im tired of adding it and removing frmo web browsers wherever i go..plus igts not very secure
[17:07] <bazhang> skwishy, #ubuntu+1 for that please
[17:07] <skwishy> So I installed xscreensaver, but seems like a different screen locking system, compared to 11.04
[17:07] <DigDeeper> So basically I have app that runs in the panel but how can I make that app autostart with OS?
[17:07] <fellayaboy> clear
[17:07] <DeLorean731> anyone willing to help me install a gedit plugin? I seem to be stuck as to why it's not showing up in gedit

[17:08] <Pici> skwishy: sorry.
[17:09] <Pici> skwishy:actually, not sorry.

[17:10] <Nach0z> ohey PhonicUK. aint seen you in a while.
[17:10] <PhonicUK> hey
[17:10] <SunTsu> PhonicUK: what is [[? I know [ - [[ is zsh specific AFAIK
[17:11] <PhonicUK> SunTsu, not sure what the practical difference is tbh
[17:11] <milen8204> SunTsu, ok thanks
[17:11] <DigDeeper> how can I make that app autostart with OS?
[17:12] <SunTsu> PhonicUK: as I said, [[ is a zsh-ism
[17:12] <PhonicUK> righto
[17:12] <SunTsu> maybe bash has it too, nowadays, but [/test is POSIX
[17:13] <PhonicUK> hmm
[17:13] <PhonicUK> just looking at this script
[17:13] <PhonicUK> if [[ "$proc" == "" ]] - theres no reason for [[ at all
[17:14] <PhonicUK> surely if [ ! -d "$proc" ] would do
[17:15] <SunTsu> PhonicUK: yeah, maybe it's something ported from zsh and forgot to change that. Well, maybe you can ln -s test [[
[17:15] <padhu> is there is an light weight simple database other than sqlite?
[17:15] <SunTsu> couchdb

[17:18] <milen8204> ok sorry
[17:19] <jtran> is there an ubuntu distro url that lists all the files inside of the cd, not the actual iso?   for example isolinux.bin

[17:23] <rmannibucau> hi i use ubuntu 11.10 with unity and systray doesn't appear anymore even if i set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist to all
[17:24] <wylde> jtran: you mean something like ftp://ubuntu.arcticnetwork.ca/pub/ubuntu/releases/oneiric/ubuntu-11.10-alternate-amd64.list ?
[17:24] <grylos> bazhang: oh i didn't know that!!i 'll ckeck it
[17:26] <jtran> wylde: that's just a list file tho right?  but somewhere i can grab the actual isolinux.bin as well as other files in the cd image
[17:26] <X-tonic> Which packages does ubuntu update within a distro release? What I mean is, suppose, gimp 2.8 gets released after 12.04, will ubuntu stick to gimp 2.6 like it does for many packages (like kernel), or will it update to gimp 2.8 like it does for firefox?
[17:27] <wo0t99> try apt-get update & apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[17:27] <TyanColte> hello all
[17:27] <Pici> X-tonic: No, we don't.
[17:27] <Pici> !latest | X-tonic
[17:28] <wylde> jtran: not sure, I suppose you're looking to customize an ubuntu cd?
[17:28] <X-tonic> !backports
[17:29] <X-tonic> Pici: But then firefox jumps through ubuntu as backports right?
[17:29] <jtran> wylde, exactly .  i can download the iso and extract but i'm writing a script that'll automate the custom cd creation
[17:29] <jtran> i'd rather just download that file and a couple others each time instead of grabbing the iso
[17:30] <Pici> X-tonic: firefox is a bit of a special case.

[18:02] <xskydevilx> trism, I couldn't find any higher releases than 17.
[18:02] <sidro> nobody know ?
[18:02] <xskydevilx> trism, However I found 20 on Softpedia for Windows. So, how to get that in Lucid?
[18:04] <usr13> sidro: The libvdpau wrapper library and the libvdpau_trace
[18:04] <usr13> debugging library, along with the header files needed to build VDPAU
[18:04] <usr13> applications. To actually use a VDPAU device, you need a vendor-specific
[18:04] <usr13> implementation library, like the one shipped with nvidia's binary graphics
[18:04] <usr13> driver.
[18:04] <FloodBot1> usr13: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:04] <trism> xskydevilx: if you are going to install random files from the internet, you might as well just use the chrome dev repo from google
[18:04] <sha0coder> re
[18:04] <sha0coder> where is de cryptswap password stored?
[18:05] <sidro> usr13: i have proprietary driver
[18:05] <|Anthony|> anyone else think this is a bad idea: chmod go-w ~/
[18:05] <trism> xskydevilx: http://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel
[18:05] <xskydevilx> trism, Dude, those are not random files from ze interwebz.
[18:05] <Pici> xskydevilx: https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/dev
[18:05] <trism> xskydevilx: softpedia?
[18:05] <trism> Pici: the dev channel hasn't been updated in months
[18:06] <trism> Pici: well I should say, it has the stable release not the current dev release (which is 2 version behind)
[18:06] <zykotick9> |Anthony|: personally, i'd cd into /home then specify the user's folder rather then using ~/ - but it's common in other distros for user's home folder NOT to be world readable (debian and ubuntu are kinda exceptions to this)
[18:07] <Escherial> is there an alternative to libreoffice? i'm kind of tired of it eating my office documents for lunch
[18:07] <Pici> trism: hm, odd.
[18:07] <trism> xskydevilx: the 18 version is in lucid proposed at the moment also if you would like to test that
[18:07] <sidro> usr13: what to do ?
[18:07] <pkukk> ciao a tutti
[18:07] <xskydevilx> trism, I wish I could compile the v20 somehow.
[18:09] <confrey> hi everybody
[18:10] <angel279> Hello does some knows which package contain "/lame/lame.h" file? I am trying to compile some package which required this file
[18:10] <zykotick9> angel279: /lame is not a default directory...
[18:10] <llutz> angel279: libmp3lame-dev
[18:10] <sha0coder> where cryptsetup stores the keys?
[18:11] <confrey> angel279, seem a header files, may be lame.dev? search for that file at packages.ubuntu.org
[18:12] <angel279> llutz: Thanks
[18:15] <jardineworks> bazhang, I tried the xrandr but I get a strange message. It appears to be treating my two separate screens as one. The message is "xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default"
[18:16] <trism> xskydevilx: you can of course, it is a bit involved though: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/LinuxBuildInstructions
[18:18] <xskydevilx> trism, hm, maybe it's a bit complicated.
[18:21] <shadykhan> quick question im running photoshop under wine and everything on the top menu has a &before the name so
[18:21] <shadykhan> &file &edit &menu
[18:22] <hwilde> is there a faster way to get disk usage of a directory than du  ?
[18:23] <peteza> Hey there! I was hoping to get assistance in configuring a cluster with Ubuntu in order to provide a failover support for a KVM server
[18:25] <wylde> hwilde: df -h ?
[18:25] <peteza> I am trying to use 2 Ubuntu 11.10 computers to cluster together but dont know where to start and how to configure a cluster
[18:25] <zykotick9> hwilde: du is an isssue?
[18:25] <wylde> df -h
[18:25] <wylde> whoops
[18:25] <hwilde> df -h does not show just for one specific folder
[18:26] <hwilde> zykotick9, du seems to search for a long long time thru all subfolders adding up the space
[18:26] <zykotick9> hwilde: that's true - but isn't that what you want?
[18:26] <hwilde> no, I want it faster.
[18:26] <zykotick9> hwilde: but faster - i don't think so...
[18:27] <hwilde> how does hte disk usage analyzer scan everything so fast but du takes forrreverrrr
[18:28] <wylde> hwilde: I looked at du --help, would du /path/to/dir work for you?
[18:28] <hwilde> wylde, that's what i am doing, but it still seems to go thru every subdirectory and file
[18:28] <hwilde> disk analyzer can do the entire harddrive in less time
[18:30] <sebokie> hello
[18:31] <cypher-neo> Hi sebokie
[18:31] <sebokie> I would like to install an openvpn server on a dedicated server
[18:31] <SunTsu> sebokie: and you're telling us this, because... ?
[18:32] <sebokie> the instructions to do so are different between 8.0.4 and 10.10, in that in the 10.10 version it does not seem necessary to edit /etc/network/interfaces
[18:33] <sebokie> so my question is, is it mandatory to create a bridge interface in /etc/network/interface for > 10.10, or does the openvpn server soes it automatically
[18:33] <SunTsu> sekit does it automagically
[18:35] <sebokie> what is sekit?
[18:37] <SunTsu> sebokie: me being too stupid to use completion ;)
[18:38] <SunTsu> sebokie: it does it automagically
[18:38] <uictamale> can anyone here give me some pointers for installing scribe server on ubuntu 11.10 ?
[18:40] <xskydevilx> bloody hell, 1.2 GB for Chromium's source code.
[18:45] <ranjan> hello every body
[18:47] <xskydevilx> where are fonts installed in ubuntu?
[18:47] <fishcooker> btw how to disable home folder encryption... actually i choose the option for try out only it is the first time i use this feature
[18:47] <fishcooker>  btw how to disable it
[18:48] <jayar> why does my computer randomly get a dhcp address when its set static in /interfaces ?
[18:49] <escott> fishcooker, create a new folder /home/newhome and copy and cp -ar $HOME /home/newhome; then you can try a usermod command to change your home to newhome or boot to the rescue and swap the two home folders

[18:50] <buhman> what's the difference between -updates and -security?
[18:50] <Kyshtynbai> Hi guys. I running ubuntu 12.04 beta now, should I reinstall when the stable 12.04 is released or beta will be upgrade automatically?
[18:51] <jrib> buhman: -updates is for updates that are not security related
[18:51] <zykotick9> !final | Kyshtynbai
[18:51] <cypher-neo> Kyshtynbai, It will upgrade automatically. The current Beta is so close to release it is practically the same.
[18:51] <Kyshtynbai> Thank you guys.
[18:51] <n3ur0tix> hey folks, is there a way to record keypresses in gnome-shell screencaster?
[18:51] <xskydevilx> How do I remove all the microsoft core fonts?
[18:52] <carroarmato0> n3ur0tix: there's this new thing:  http://shelr.tv/
[18:52] <reflexes> działa?
[18:52] <carroarmato0> n3ur0tix: seemed a bit buggy on ubuntu though
[18:52] <buhman> jrib: if it is security related, will -updates and -security be identical?
[18:53] <n3ur0tix> carroarmato0, yeah thanks, there's a few shell recorder sites now, but I was more curious as to whether you can configure the gnome-shell screen recorder
[18:53] <bram__> hey there is way to run ms-dos on wine?
[18:53] <Ubuntu12> hello is there programs that will store all passwords on a usb and make it possible to use a hotkey to find password needed and enter it into the window (like a browser stores passwords, but for use with the whole system) ?
[18:53] <zykotick9> bram__: for actual MS-DOS you might try dosbox instead
[18:54] <n3ur0tix> Ubuntu12, that sounds massively unsafe
[18:54] <zykotick9> n3ur0tix: +1
[18:55] <daftykins> +1
[18:55] <jrib> buhman: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories My guess is an update is not placed in both -updates and -security, but I am not sure.
[18:55] <bram__> zykotick9: so, there's a linux version of dosbox?
[18:55] <zykotick9> !info dosbox
[18:55] <ardian> Hello I have Ubuntu Server installed on VirtualBox I want to access my files through the shared folder, how do I do that on ubuntu CLI ?
[18:55] <Ubuntu12> n3ur0tix not if you encrypt the key and only plug it in when you need a password
[18:55] <n3ur0tix> Ubuntu12, you can securely store passwords for use across systems using something like keepassx
[18:55] <fishcooker> great tricks escott
[18:56] <bram__> I'll see for the linux version of dosbox
[18:56] <Ubuntu12> n3ur0tix ok thanks ill have a look into it
[18:57] <n3ur0tix> Ubuntu12, np
[19:03] <LucidGuy> Odd scenario .. quota thinks an nfs filesystem has a hard limit of 2048GB when it actually has a 10TB limit.  Any ideas?  From another workstation that same user shows the proper quota.
[19:03] <donavan01> anyone have a suggestion for a good graphical front end for diff
[19:04] <n3ur0tix> donavan01, meld
[19:05] <bram__> do someone know a good program sound editor like cool edit pro?
[19:05] <bram__> and free for linux?
[19:05] <n3ur0tix> bram__, audacity
[19:05] <bram__> n3ur0tix: okay, it's free?
[19:05] <n3ur0tix> yeah
[19:05] <n3ur0tix> in the repo
[19:06] <bram__> ok, thanks
[19:06] <n3ur0tix> np
[19:07] <donavan01> n3urotix ... thanks
[19:08] <Sp][nE> if you type just about any programs name in google followed by: "linux alternative" you are bound to finda host of blogs allready talking about which programs you can use as alternatives and their pros and cons
[19:08] <Sp][nE> never failed me
[19:08] <annecy> bram_, ardour is closer methinks if you want all the features
[19:09] <Sp][nE> messing with "jack" is a nightmare in linux
[19:09] <dlentz> LucidGuy, are you using 32-bit (quota)?
[19:09] <bram__> ok, thanks, i'll find that on google
[19:09] <n3ur0tix> annecy, no, cool edit pro is not a DAW, ardour is a serious piece of kit
[19:09] <n3ur0tix> but excellent none the less
[19:09] <n3ur0tix> recommended
[19:09] <LucidGuy> dlentz, hmm .. Im going to say yes.  Its an install of ubuntu 64bit.
[19:09] <Sp][nE> have fun with jack
[19:09] <Sp][nE> lol
[19:09] <bram__> lol
[19:09] <n3ur0tix> cool edit pro is a wave editor, audacity is a wave editor
[19:10] <dlentz> LucidGuy, then i would think quota would be 64-bit as well
[19:10] <n3ur0tix> jack is pretty easy to get running
[19:11] <jayar> can anyone tell me why my ip is randomly getting set via dhcp when its set static in /interfaces?
[19:11] <annecy> ardour is better than audacity for edits if you are willing to learn
[19:12] <n3ur0tix> annecy, sure, it is way more powerful, but for quick edits audacity is perfectly capable.  I use it for sound sculpting all the time
[19:12] <bram__> i'm seeing them two, they seem good
[19:12] <n3ur0tix> If bram asked, is there an alternative for pro tools on line, I'd have said ardour
[19:12] <zatan> hei how can I add read-only permission on file ?
[19:13] <n3ur0tix> zatan, for who?
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> zatan: chmod o-w file
[19:13] <zatan> n3ur0tix, for txt file
[19:13] <annecy> bram__, are you a pro or a chancery?
[19:14] <bram__> i'm watching the two programs, i could download them and test to see their differencies
[19:14] <n3ur0tix> lol, ^ ActionParsnip  has your answer... I meant as in User, Group, etc
[19:14] <n3ur0tix> bram__, one is a fully fledged audio workstation, the other is a sound/wave editor.  Both very handy tools to have around for music production
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> zatan: you will need to do the same with g-w and u-w too ensure nobody has write access
[19:15] <n3ur0tix> check out hydrogen (drum sequencer)
[19:15] <zatan> ActionParsnip, cheers
[19:15] <Gruenkohl> I've got a problem with the sound on my Notebook. Description can be found under http://pastebin.com/4SBBT3Cm. Please read the description until the end, before you start to answer. Who can help?
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> LMMS is like frooty loops too :9)
[19:15] <bram__> i need to make high quality sound mixes, and some sound sculpting
[19:15] <n3ur0tix> yep, good too
[19:16] <n3ur0tix> I like Renoise for a tracker
[19:16] <n3ur0tix> excellent quality, though different approach to what I was previously used to.  Can't wait for Bitwig!!!! w000000h00000!
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> Gruenkohl: what is the output of: lsb_release -sc
[19:17] <n3ur0tix> ActionParsnip, do you ever leave this chan?! ;) You are a permanent fixture!
[19:17] <annecy> bram__, you can use ladspa plugins in both if you have them. there are other projects that can make use of vast
[19:17] <n3ur0tix> I think you may just be a sentient machine
[19:17] <deitarion> Now that I've forced an install of scratch despite having held pulseaudio as uninstalled, how do I manually edit pulseaudio out of its dependencies to get the update manager to shut up about a dependency error that will never be resolved?
[19:17] <annecy> sorry vst
[19:17] <bram__> Bitwig, i will remember that =)
[19:18] <deitarion>  (I'm OK with scratch having no sound. I'd rather run the Windows version in Wine or in a VirtualBox VM with pirated WinXP or not run it at all than reinstall pulseaudio.)
[19:18] <n3ur0tix> bram__, it's by ex-Ableton devs
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> n3ur0tix: i use andchat on my phone ane irssi via ssh from work :-)
[19:18] <n3ur0tix> ActionParsnip, seriously, you never sleep!
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> n3ur0tix: 12 hour shifts do that.
[19:19] <bram__> annecy: i can try some plugins, i'll see landspa
[19:19] <n3ur0tix> I've been on several time in the last week or so (using different accounts) and you're here every time
[19:19] <Gruenkohl> ActionParsnip: isadora
[19:19] <daftykins> i still remember the times i would become top speaker in IRC stats of a particular channel for every hour of the day
[19:19] <daftykins> quite an achievement
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> Gruenkohl: that's not ubuntu, so not supported here
[19:19] <Duality> if i do ls i see a green director, i think this is the reason it's not showing in the program, how do i change it back to a director?
[19:20] <catcher> my compiz, or perhaps X, gets increasingly slower over the course of a couple days. Any way to refresh/restart video without logging out?
[19:20] <mbeierl> catcher, try "compiz --replace&" from a terminal?
[19:20] <catcher> or maybe a unity issue..
[19:20] <catcher> mbeierl, I tried that, and it reset all my settings, had to reconfig.
[19:21] <Gruenkohl> ActionParsnip: yes, it's linux mint, a derivate of ubuntu. But in Untuntu 10.4 i've the same problem.
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> !mint | Gruenkohl its supported here
[19:21] <rbennacer> hello
[19:22] <deitarion> Never mind. Figured it out. Editing /var/lib/dpkg/status by hand let me remove pulseaudio from scratch's dependencies. (I program in Python, so it's no big deal if the copy of Scratch I use to follow along while teaching my brothers has no sound.)
[19:22] <rbennacer> how can i find all the large file in my system and exclude some directories
[19:22] <jrib> deitarion: sounds like a terrible idea
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> Gruenkohl: none of the ubuntu based releases are supported here. Ubuntu is based on Debian, if you ask for ubuntu support in #debian you will be directed here
[19:22] <Duality> anyone?
[19:22] <rbennacer> example find /  -size +500M and exclude all the files that have  /mnt/glusterfs/
[19:22] <llutz> rbennacer: find / -size +xxM  (man find)
[19:23] <rbennacer> i couldnt find it in fthe man
[19:23] <deitarion> jrib: Works for me and I've edited more finicky file formats without issue. If something regenerates it and the update manager starts whining again, I'll just switch to the Windows version of Scratch inside Wine.
[19:23] <llutz> rbennacer: -not -iname 'pattern'
[19:23] <ActionParsnip> rbennacer: add to the end:   | grep -v glusterfs
[19:23] <deitarion> (I already know scratch works if that dependency is unsatisified. It just has no sound.)
[19:24] <jrib> deitarion: I don't know what your original question was.  But why don't you rebuild the source package with the dependencies you want?
[19:24] <rbennacer> thank you
[19:24] <yoshie> ubuntu 64bit new 2TB Western Digital Hard drive green version, fresh install of ubuntu , getting error  No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key
[19:24] <deitarion> jrib: Because this isn't Gentoo and, even if I can find a source .deb rather than a binary deb or source tarball on the Scratch site, I don't have time to learn how to rebuild from source on Debian-based distros right now.
[19:25] <wilco> If I upgrade my 10.04 desktop to PP beta2, will it be straightforward to upgrade to the final PP release? (Sorry if this is a FAQ; I don't see it mentioned in the tech overview)
[19:25] <n3ur0tix> a source deb... say what?
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> Duality: run:  ls -l *   and look at the accesses and types. I believe it happens when you share a folder
[19:25] <n3ur0tix> deb = binary, or am I stupid?

[19:25] <n3ur0tix> wilco, hold out for final release
[19:26] <Duality> lol no premisions at all ?
[19:26] <deitarion> n3ur0tix: Wrong phrasing. I mean the bits to build a deb. (Like RPM .spec files)
[19:26] <jrib> n3ur0tix: I meant "source package"

[19:26] <Robson92> hi everyone! does somebody know how to limit amount of connections in rtorrent ?
[19:26] <n3ur0tix> deitarion, aka source
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> yoshie: is it set to the boot device in bios? Is the drive seen in bios?
[19:26] <deitarion> n3ur0tix: No. Source doesn't necessarily include all the bits and pieces necessary to build a .deb and I don't feel like using checkinstall to generate a half-assed .deb.
[19:27] <yoshie> ActionParsnip: yes bios is setup correctly and it shows in bios
[19:27] <dlentz> deitarion, are you using the version from the repo?
[19:27] <n3ur0tix> deitarion, really?  source files, be them code or assets are all that is needed to compile a deb... surely?
[19:27] <caB00T> How do I mount a windows hard drive in startup?
[19:27] <deitarion> dlentz: There is no repo I could find. The official scratch site gives you a .deb and a dpkg command.
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> yoshie: do you dual boot?
[19:28] <n3ur0tix> what other ingredient, not classed as source, is required?
[19:28] <deitarion> n3ur0tix: All packaging formats require more than just source because there's no standard format and naming convention for things like dependency information.
[19:28] <yoshie> ActionParsnip: no, I just did got the hard drive and installed ubuntu on it
[19:28] <robde> hello, is there an easy way to stay in sync with an apache directory listing?
[19:28] <mbeierl> caB00T, by putting it in /etc/fstab
[19:28] <caB00T> Just a valid executable script file, yes?
[19:29] <bindi> hey, I need java 7 on an ubuntu machine, is this possible?
[19:29] <yoshie> ActionParsnip: using the full disk for ubuntu
[19:29] <n3ur0tix> deitarion, sounds like packaging source to me
[19:29] <ActionParsnip> Caboot: its an ntfs partition. You can add an entry in /etc/fstab and it will automount at boot
[19:29] <jardineworks> anyone? xrandr? no help?
[19:29] <jrib> deitarion: the other thing people do in this situation is use equivs to generate a dummy package for the missing dependency.  This is also a terrible solution, but I'm not sure which one is worse :P
[19:29] <n3ur0tix> !anyone
[19:29] <caB00T> Thank you mbeierl / ActionParsnip :)
[19:29] <deitarion> jrib: Last time I tried generating a dummy package, I couldn't get the system to guarantee it would override the pulseaudio from the repo.
[19:29] <_r00t_> !udev
[19:30] <Robson92> anyone? how to limit amount of connection in rtorrent?
[19:30] <_r00t_> Robson92: what has that got to do with Ubuntu ?
[19:30] <wilco> thanks n3ur0tix dlentz
[19:30] <Robson92> it is installed on ubuntu server
[19:30] <Noorideen> guys whats better for programmers linux or ubuntu?
[19:30] <n3ur0tix> wilco, np
[19:31] <SirTurtle> ubuntu
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> yoshie: all i can suggest is boot to the liveCD/USB and install grub there using a chroot. Omgubuntu has a how to called 'sticking it to grub'
[19:31] <n3ur0tix> Noorideen, erm... Ubuntu is a linux distro
[19:31] <deitarion> Either way, as I said, problem solved. If my edited /var/lib/dpkg/status breaks, I understand that I get to keep the pieces. If it gets regenerated, I'll either edit it again, unpack the scratch binary tarball in ~/opt/scratch, or install the Windows version in Wine.
[19:31] <jrib> Noorideen: ubuntu is a linux distro, so your question doesn't make much sense
[19:31] <_r00t_> Noorideen: erm ... Linux is a kernel :)
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> Noorideen: the question is nonsensical
[19:31] <deitarion> Noorideen: That's like asking "What's better for drivers. An engine or a Toyota?"
[19:31]  * n3ur0tix feels a firm palm against his face
[19:31] <Noorideen> ok
[19:31] <Noorideen> i am sorry
[19:31] <Noorideen> in other way
[19:31] <Noorideen> lol
[19:31] <FloodBot1> Noorideen: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:31] <n3ur0tix> no worries ;)
[19:32] <Noorideen> Whats the differences?
[19:32] <Noorideen> are*
[19:32] <ActionParsnip> Noorideen: which is better: windows or server 2003 64bit. Very similar question
[19:32] <n3ur0tix> kernel = core. Ubuntu = OS
[19:32] <jrib> deitarion: ask scratch to provide a -nopulse version of the package :)
[19:32] <Noorideen> n3ur0tix: easier to use?
[19:32] <deitarion> jrib: When I have time to fart around with getting in contact with the devs, maybe.
[19:32] <Noorideen> ubuntu?
[19:33] <ActionParsnip> Noorideen: i suggest you research what you are asking
[19:33] <n3ur0tix> Noorideen, no, Linux is not an OS.  You need an OS, be it Ubuntu/Fedora/Gentoo/Arch ,etc... All Linux distros
[19:33] <deitarion> Noorideen: As opposed to what. Depending on how you define "linux", Ubuntu either IS or CONTAINS Linux.
[19:33] <n3ur0tix> Noorideen, listen to ActionParsnip , he knows what's up
[19:33] <deitarion> Noorideen: You can't drive a bare car engine and you can't run Linux all on its own.
[19:34] <n3ur0tix> Noorideen, Ubuntu is a fine OS for learning to program on
[19:34] <ActionParsnip> Noorideen: which is better between "windows" and "server 2003 64bit"?
[19:34] <tomasm-> hi, i noticed with the notification boxes (the black ones in the top right corner) that they disappear when I hover, and then re-appear when I move away, several times, and won't go away forever until I ignore it for at least 5 seconds. is there a way to close it immediately?
[19:34] <Noorideen> n3ur0tix got me
[19:34] <Noorideen> its gunna be my first time
[19:34] <Noorideen> to use ubuntu
[19:35] <wilco> well... depending on whom you ask, Linux is an operating system and Ubuntu is an operating environment OR Linux is an operating system kernel and Ubuntu is an operating system
[19:35] <Noorideen> gunna install it tomorrow
[19:35] <n3ur0tix> Noorideen, well it's a good place to start your Linux adventure
[19:35] <csharp> Noorideen: install Ubuntu and you'll learn all aobut linux
[19:35] <ActionParsnip> +1
[19:35] <yoshie> ActionParsnip: i got the live usb running any idea what to do from there? cause i dont see  omgubuntu
[19:35] <n3ur0tix> csharp, cough (Arch) cough
[19:35] <Noorideen> thank you all!
[19:36] <csharp> n3ur0tix: ;-)
[19:36]  * dlentz hands n3ur0tix cough syrup
[19:36] <n3ur0tix> thanks dlentz
[19:36]  * n3ur0tix needed that
[19:37] <dlentz> just don't drink the whole bottle or strange things happen...
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> yoshie: it's a website
[19:38] <Duality> what does it meen if you traceroute and it give a number and three stars behind it
[19:38] <yoshie> ubuntu 64bit new 2TB Western Digital Hard drive green version, fresh install of ubuntu , getting error  No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key
[19:39] <caB00T> I am stupid, can anybody tell me what to write in fstab in order to mount my ntfs windows partition? It's volume "Cabot", location /media ? :\
[19:39] <tomasm-> Duality, that means it can't trace any further.... there probably is a firewall blocking ICMP packets (for security reasons)
[19:39] <_r00t_> udev forks 80 processes on boot and renders my machine useless
[19:39] <Ubuntu12> n3ur0tix thanks xD  works great even types for me just a shame it doesnt recognise what url the page is on
[19:40] <Duality> cool
[19:40] <shpngld> Hello everybody! I will be really happy if someone helps me! Im using xubuntu11 04. The web browser I use is Chromium, my torrent client is Flush and listen to Music with VLC player. quite often I got a problem while browsing : Error 105 (net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED): Unable to resolve the server's DNS address." In the same time the Online radio I usually enjoy doesnt stops and the stream is OK. The torrent transfer r OK t
[19:40] <shpngld> oo.... no problems...but the browsing is failing..I have to wait for a few minutes sometimes, then F5 and eventually all seems back to normal...for a while...What can I do to fix the problem?
[19:40] <meganerd> shpngld: slow down your torrents
[19:41] <n3ur0tix> Ubuntu12, yeah, it's open source... maybe you can extend it? ;)
[19:41] <Duality> how do i route all my internet / network trafic thourgh my vpn?
[19:41] <Ubuntu12> n3ur0tix maybe if i get time off work+can be bothered lol
[19:41] <meganerd> shpngld: if you use a consumer router perhaps it is having trouble with all the streams from the torrent client, causing DNS to fail while not impacting existing connections
[19:41] <n3ur0tix> Ubuntu12, ;)
[19:42] <daftykins> Duality: change your default gateway from your router IP to your VPN endpoint (with the 'route' command)
[19:42] <dlentz> caB00T, here's an example https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab#ntfs
[19:42] <meganerd> Duality: set your default route ... this is pretty generic, more info would be helpful
[19:42] <shpngld> meganerd,  so i should stop usin torrents?
[19:42] <meganerd> daftykins: "ip route" is the more modern wayh.
[19:42] <sangwich> hey I have a thinkpad e220s with ubuntu 11.10 and the wireless network is doing some wierd stuff
[19:42] <sangwich> can anyone help
[19:42] <Duality> i've een trying to setup a vpn server and client both run :)
[19:42] <daftykins> meganerd: 'route' deprecated then? or just an alternative?
[19:43] <Duality> but if i do a traceroute it doesn't go through the vpn tunnel i believe (sorry kinda newby here :)
[19:43] <guntbert> !ircroot | _r00t_
[19:43] <dlentz> sangwich, what wireless chipset is it using (run lspci or lshw -C network if not sure)
[19:43] <meganerd> daftykins: yes it has been deprecated, but it has been so for a decade, so probably not really going anywhere :)
[19:44] <shpngld> meganerd, I think this is the problem, when i quit rush all seems ok...but what if I want to dl/ul torrnets
[19:44] <shpngld> meganerd, "FLUSH" I ment
[19:44] <meganerd> shpngld: I am not familiar with that client, but there should be an option to limit the number of connections
[19:44] <_r00t_> guntbert: really ?
[19:44] <shpngld> meganerd,  what is a good number of connection for you
[19:45] <meganerd> shpngld: don't ask me, I have dual core machine with 8 GiB of RAM for my router
[19:45] <judy> good night,sleep tight
[19:45] <mycroftholmes> hi guys, n00b here ^^
[19:45] <mbeierl> caB00T, do you know the partition name of the Windows drive?
[19:45] <meganerd> shpngld: and a 50 mbit cable connection
[19:45] <sangwich> dlentz, this is what I got product: RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter
[19:46] <shpngld> meganerd,  well I can divide it by 20 then...
[19:46] <meganerd> shpngld: You might just try limiting the speed
[19:46] <guntbert> _r00t_: sorry, I misremembered the factoid - in fact it is !rootirc and should tell you that doing everyday things as root is a bad idea ™
[19:46] <Mene-Mene> I'm trying to install the i386 version of openjdk6, but it's refusing to install in synaptic saying it depends on the x64 version of openjdk6. How do I swap the two?
[19:46] <shpngld> meganerd, Thanks A Lot I will do it tight now
[19:46] <meganerd> shpngld: generally start with really low numbers, then do gradual increases until you see a failure
[19:46] <_r00t_> guntbert: how can you tell that I'm running as root ?
[19:47] <caB00T> Thank you dlentz
[19:47] <shpngld> meganerd,  Thats a good approach thjanks
[19:47] <meganerd> shpngld: np
[19:47] <guntbert> _r00t_: ~root@cpc17-enfi16-2-0-cust219.hari.cable.virginmedia.com   seems to imply just that :-)
[19:48] <meganerd> shpngld: if you want to get crazy check out the linux advanced routing and traffic shaping guide: http://lartc.org.  They have examples for protecting your connection from getting flooded.
[19:48] <_r00t_> guntbert: Don't be so gullible ;)
[19:50] <dlentz> sangwich, so what is the issue? what is it doing 'weird'?
[19:51] <hwilde> how do I find the source code for r8169.ko ?   it says its compiled into the kernel ?
[19:51] <_r00t_> hwilde: what are you trying to do ?
[19:52] <hwilde> recompile it
[19:52] <sangwich> dlentz, it says its connected to the wireless network but won't ping even the router its says its connected to
[19:52] <meganerd> hwilde: grab the source code, the .ko is a compiled binary
[19:52] <hwilde> ya how do I get the source code
[19:52] <meganerd> sangwich: check with iwconfig
[19:52] <_r00t_> hwilde: you need to compile it with linux kernel
[19:53] <Mene-Mene> "openjdk-6-jdk:i386: Depends: openjdk-6-jre but it is not going to be installed"
[19:53] <Mene-Mene> Why would a 32-bit package depend on a 64-bit package?
[19:53] <shpngld> meganerd,  Thanks a lot for every thing, I m quite new at xubuntu, Ill take a look at it
[19:53] <sangwich> dlentz, what should I look for? sorry for the noobish question
[19:54] <meganerd> hwilde: install the linux-source package, then check /usr/src
[19:54] <sangwich> dlentz, http://dpaste.com/733876/
[19:55] <sangwich> meganerd, http://dpaste.com/733876/
[19:55] <shpngld> meganerd, another ? : what is the ususal reason for slow animations gifs or slow utube videos in web browser?
[19:55] <Duality> 8 bit rules
[19:55] <dlentz> sangwich, the only thing i can suggest is trying linux-wireless-backport package to see if newer driver helps
[19:57] <sangwich> dlentz, just sudo apt-get it?
[19:57] <robde> hello, I want to install a package, but it says that there is a dependancy conflict: pdfsandwich depends on cuneiform (<< 0.9.0); however: Version of cuneiform on system is 1.1.0+dfsg-1.
[19:57] <robde> what can I do about it?
[19:57] <meganerd> shpngld: no idea.  slow computer or no video drivers installed?
[19:59] <dlentz> sangwich, yes, though i don't remeber the exact package name
[19:59] <shpngld> meganerd,  I can watch nicely .avi but every animation in web browser is at least choppy...RAM is almost 1gb and Mhz are 1.7
[19:59] <Duality> wait what is my gateway?
[19:59] <shpngld> meganerd, Ghz I ment
[19:59] <jardineworks> is there a command that I can use that will tell me what graphics driver I am using?
[20:00] <guntbert> Duality: wrong window? :-)
[20:00] <Duality> no
[20:00] <shpngld> meganerd,  Is it possible to be something about Flash?
[20:00] <Enissay> Hi, how can I compress many files in the same rar file (without puting them in a floder)?
[20:00] <Duality> what is my gateway? internal ip or ?
[20:00] <dlentz> jardineworks, sudo lscpi -vv
[20:00] <dlentz> *lspci
[20:00] <guntbert> Duality: please keep to the topic
[20:00] <caB00T> test
[20:01] <Duality> nvm
[20:02] <jardineworks> dlentz, thanks
[20:03] <shaneo> hey guys is there a way to setup a webui to access a local terminal via a webui so that i wouldnt have to use putty or and other application when im on the move
[20:03] <sangwich> dlentz, does linux-backport-mudules sound right
[20:04] <caB00T> Is it possile to ping more then one host in one command?
[20:05] <meganerd> shaneo: could be
[20:06] <dlentz> sangwich, linux-backport-modules-wireless?
[20:07] <shaneo> meganerd, do you know how i could go about performing this my school wont allow me to install any exe so i wanna be able to connect to a terminal via web so that i may do whatever i need to do. I have tried some java terminals onliine but dont really trust them
[20:07] <guntbert> caB00T: no, what do you need? maybe   nmap  -sP will help
[20:07] <carroarmato0> caB00T: there's no command that I know of that does that in 1 command. usually people scripts to do that
[20:07] <carroarmato0> *write
[20:08] <Zaltabar> shaneo: you could check out "ssl explorer"
[20:09] <shaneo> thanks Zaltabar will def. do that
[20:09] <Xtreme> guys what to do when ubuntu hangs?
[20:09] <Xtreme> like ctrl+alt+del in windows
[20:09] <caB00T> guntbert , carroarmato0 thank you. I can use nmap sure, but I just tought this might be more portable and faster if possible. Thank you anyway. :)
[20:10] <carroarmato0> caB00T: ow but just like guntbert said, nmap is most likely to be able to do that
[20:10] <dlentz> Xtreme, press Ctrl+Alt+F1, and run sudo top to kill offending process
[20:10] <Goshaw> How do I move the unity bar ?
[20:12] <fl1bbl3> caBOOT sometimes can ping network broadcast address and get replies from hosts on that subnet
[20:12] <Goshaw> Also I tried to install the flashplugin. But the download 404:ed and now I can't install any other packages because it tries to install that one first.
[20:12] <fl1bbl3> but that behaviour isn't consistent
[20:13] <carroarmato0> fl1bbl3, caB00T:  yeah, most OS's don't do that anymore because of the abuse by so called Smurf Attacks
[20:13] <zykotick9> caB00T: you might want to try "oping" as well (i haven't used it so unsure on it's value)
[20:13] <doc969> Hi, I was hoping someone could help. when i installed ubuntu on my macbook it got a red light in the audio jack and no sound comes out the headphones or internal speakers. what would be the solution to this?
[20:14] <dackyshawn> anyone here using ubuntu server as a router for their network?
[20:15] <guntbert> dackyshawn: ask in #ubuntu-server and start with your real question please
[20:15] <carroarmato0> doc969: I don't own a mac, but I'm pretty sure the red light you see is normal. It's an optical way to detect that a cable is inserted rather than by electrica means
[20:15] <carroarmato0> doc969: *electrical
[20:15] <Xtreme666> this is me, xtreme..
[20:16] <Xtreme666> i did ctrl+alt+f1
[20:16] <Xtreme666> and yes i ended up into console which i get when i log int
[20:16] <Xtreme666> but i am not able to do anything there
[20:16] <Xtreme666> and also, how to go back?
[20:16] <Xtreme666> i logged in now usign another user by f2
[20:16] <zykotick9> Xtreme666: alt+f7 to get back
[20:17] <Xtreme666> thanks.. i will get back to xtreme, and reply :)
[20:17] <mbeierl> caB00T, you can do a broadcast ping to an entire subnet...
[20:17] <Xtreme> haha
[20:17] <Xtreme> lol
[20:17] <Xtreme> but when i was there, i wasnt able to run any command
[20:17] <doc969> carroarmato8: I thought that too, but, it only lights up when i press the volume buttons or play sound, is there a driver i would need to install. and if so where do i find it
[20:18] <mbeierl> dackyshawn, yes.  11.10 here - masquerading firewall out to my ISP for home network
[20:18] <Xtreme> so where i enter pkilll and all?
[20:18] <FishErr> I am trying test latest kernel ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/978313/comments/30 ), but no new boot menu`s entry added. http://paste.ubuntu.com/935983/ - I`ve run same commands again and get similar  output, and no new entry again
[20:18] <meganerd> shaneo: sorry I sent a message to you by accident.  what was the original question?
[20:18] <shaneo> personal terminal access via webui
[20:18] <carroarmato0> doc969: well if it isn't what I guess then I have no idea, don't own a mac so I'm afraid I can't help you any further
[20:19] <Xtreme> zykotick9: where to enter command like pkill?
[20:19] <meganerd> shaneo: putty portble on a USB drive?  I used a java based one almost 10 years ago now, but it required a web server to be installed to
[20:20] <caB00T> Sounds like something I had in mind, that's exactly what I wanted to do tbh. Cool, will look it up. :)
[20:20] <shaneo> meganerd, school wont let me load executables
[20:20] <trism> FishErr: I only see the linux-headers packages in that output, you need the linux-image ones
[20:20] <shaneo> java based would be fine if the web-server is hosted by me
[20:22] <meganerd> shaneo: mindterm was what I used, but this is going back quite some time
[20:23] <meganerd> shaneo: I seem to remeber webmin having a feature similar to this.
[20:24] <guntbert> !webmin | shaneo meganerd
[20:24] <FishErr> trism thanks, with headers better :) sorry for my  inattention. reboot.
[20:25] <shaneo> ubottu, thanks for the warning was about to install is there something you can suggest
[20:25] <shaneo> lol oh yeah
[20:25] <shaneo> does ubottu use MegaHal?
[20:26] <auronandace> !ebox | shaneo
[20:26] <poeloq> Hey! Anybody got advice on dual monitor setups?

[20:48] <Caifas> hello guys, I have set a reverse ssh on my client with autossh for reconnect in the case of internet problems, but sometimes the reverse port just stop listening, his ssh is established, but the port for listen is TIME_WAIT, so when i try to ssh him i recieve "ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host", anyone know what's happening?
[20:48] <hanshans> cocolos: yes!
[20:48] <obscurant1st> hanshans, try installing any webserver with php support, then try this one : http://www.php-calendar.com/
[20:49] <hanshans> obscurant1st: uh, php...
[20:49] <obscurant1st> hanshans, whats wrong with php?
[20:50] <cocolos> obscurant1st: everything is wrong with php lol
[20:50] <area51pilot> hanshans: http://www.davical.org/installation.php

[20:51] <FiL> hi I have a tiny problem with my bluetooth. I have installed buez libraries and when I type hcitool scan it returns my phone's bluetooth. But the phone cannot find pc's address
[20:52] <cocolos> can I assume that the empathy notifications being clickable hasn't been implemented?
[20:52] <FiL> I have set DiscoverableTimeout = 0 in /etc/bluetooth/main.conf but again I cannot find pc address from my phone
[20:52] <FiL> any ideas?
[20:53] <naftilos76> hi, does anybody know if totem's youtube plugin works in ubuntu 10.10 or it was abandoned after youtube changed their website in such a way so that the plugin stopped working?
[20:55] <area51pilot> FiL: make it discoverable (PC) longer?
[20:55] <zykotick9> naftilos76: i've seen others with issues with totem and youtube - you might be wasting you time trying???
[20:55] <naftilos76> zykotick9: probably!
[20:55] <FiL> 0 means discoverable forever
[20:55] <Xtreme> ooh man, i hate this. i installed chrome and all urls are opening in chrome
[20:56] <Xtreme> i went to settings and looked at default application
[20:56] <Xtreme> its firefox
[20:56] <FiL> 0 = disable timer, i.e. stay discoverable forever
[20:56] <Xtreme> still chrome is handling urls
[20:56] <Xtreme> why?
[20:56] <zykotick9> Xtreme: if you have an html file try "xdg-open foo.html" vs. "gnome-open foo.html" and see they are different
[20:57] <keyboardquestion> I have ubuntu 10.04 and the keyboard on one of the users locks up. the keyboard works on other users and at the login screen but once I login the letters on the keyboard won't work. the other parts of the keyboard work and the mouse works, but not the letters.
[20:57] <area51pilot> keyboardquestion: did you try swappinig out KB's?  ... just sayin'
[20:58] <Xtreme> that explains chrome
[20:58] <keyboardquestion> area51pilot: i'm using a laptop
[20:58] <zykotick9> area51pilot: if it working in one account, and not in another - it's not a hardware issue
[20:58] <keyboardquestion> nod, it's something in ubuntu
[20:58] <Xtreme> so now i need to set gnome-opens default html to firefox, right zykotick9
[20:58] <zykotick9> Xtreme: ya... not sure how though, good luck.
[20:58] <Xtreme> lol
[20:59] <Xtreme> i will do it later.. currently learning netbeans
[20:59] <zykotick9> Xtreme: which one is working correctly?
[20:59] <Xtreme> xdg
[21:00] <area51pilot> zykotick9: agreed, I should shut up and get all the details first  :P
[21:00] <area51pilot> though maybe it was a desktop
[21:00] <keyboardquestion> so, no ideas?
[21:00] <Xtreme> keyboardquestion:
[21:01] <area51pilot> u got mine and it was worthless
[21:01] <zykotick9> Xtreme: check out "Preferred Applications" in gnome (if that still exists ;)
[21:01] <Xtreme> check if the user to who ur keyboard hangs is running a process which might hanging keyboard
[21:01] <Xtreme> locking it i mean
[21:01] <Xtreme> zykotick9: honestly i never installed gnome
[21:01] <Xtreme> i dont know how it got there
[21:01] <zykotick9> Xtreme: ummm, sorry no suggestions then.
[21:02] <Xtreme> its alright
[21:02] <drvanon> this might be a little out of scope for this channel but, i want to make a server for my LAN. That is all the technical vocabulary i have on this matter. What i want to do is take a little space from all pcs in my local area network and have them share some folders, the point is a have no idea how to do that because some are ubuntu/linux and some are xp
[21:02] <keyboardquestion> Xtreme: I can't imagine it would be running anything. since I can shut down and then turn the machine back on and I still have the issue
[21:02] <Xtreme> keyboardquestion: what if its in startup?
[21:02] <drvanon> do you guys have any idea how to start this from an ununtu laptop?
[21:03] <Fizzik> drvanon: install ubuntu-server and during the install select the samba server install package
[21:03] <Xtreme> zykotick9: its okay, i will do it later on, but can u please help me about startup? removing kget from it
[21:03] <area51pilot> drvanon: r u using the laptop as a server?
[21:03] <drvanon> yes
[21:03] <keyboardquestion> Xtreme: yeah that's something to consider, but I have no idea what process would affect my keyboard in that fashion
[21:03] <Fizzik> or if you already using ubuntu desktop get samba
[21:03] <zykotick9> Xtreme: what DM/WM are you using?
[21:03] <Xtreme> kde
[21:04] <zykotick9> Xtreme: sorry, i'm not the one to ask then (i haven't used KDE in 10+ years)
[21:04] <droid-0854> Hi everybody!  I was wondering if there is a better way to ssh - p 22 -X anon@192.168.1.4 with out deleting the .Xauthority everytime?
[21:04] <Xtreme> its okay
[21:04] <Xtreme> thanks :)
[21:04] <trism> Xtreme: check out: readlink -f /etc/alternatives/x-www-browser, if it outputs a path to chrome, sudo update-alteratives --config x-www-browser; and select the one you want (I believe chrome has a higher priority so it may overwrite the others)
[21:05] <zykotick9> trism: i'd "guess" update-alternatives is the xdg? not the gnome?
[21:06] <drvanon> area51pilot: which package would that be?
[21:06] <Xtreme> trism: done, u r right chrome is default... but firefox is not in update alternative list.. only chrome and konquorer
[21:06] <Xtreme> so how to add firefox there
[21:06] <befree> Hi. Whats means established sessions? Whats for? I have read about it, but i don't understand  well
[21:06] <zykotick9> trism: guess i was wrong ;)
[21:07] <keyboardquestion> maybe I'll just migrate all my files and settings over to a different user. that seems to be the only solution
[21:07] <trism> zykotick9: I had the same thought as you, but it was my only idea for the inconsistancy
[21:07] <trism> Xtreme: if you installed firefox from the repos, it should be there
[21:07] <befree> Hi. Whats means established sessions? Whats for? I have read about it, but i don't understand  well. It's about firewalls configuration
[21:08] <Xtreme> yes i did, but its not there
[21:08] <area51pilot> Fizzik> drvanon: install ubuntu-server and during the install select the samba server install package
[21:08] <Xtreme> trism, can i do the same i did for java?
[21:08] <AlphaGuyy> Hi. Anyone care to xplain how to connect to a modem via bluetooth
[21:08] <area51pilot> drvanon: are yu trying to setup a fileserver?
[21:08] <drvanon> area51pilot: yes
[21:09] <drvanon> area51pilot; should i download it with apt-get?
[21:09] <Xtreme> trism: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java
[21:09] <area51pilot> drvanon: what OS are u running now
[21:09] <befree> Can some one explain what mean established session, of firewall configuration?
[21:09] <trism> Xtreme: you can of course add your own alternative, but I'd be more curious why firefox isn't already there
[21:10] <Xtreme> drvanon: ftp server right?? if yes i suggest get filezilla server
[21:10] <drvanon> 11.04
[21:10] <Xtreme> trism: i am too, but please dont tell me to re-install firefox.. i dont want to install all the developers plugin again
[21:10] <drvanon> Xtreme: would that work for LAN?
[21:10] <drvanon> Xtreme: if so, how?
[21:11] <Xtreme> drvanon: well, make it to listen a post say 6000
[21:11] <area51pilot> drvanon: exactly what kind of setup or use are you expecting to achieve?
[21:11] <Xtreme> and using ur lan ip, connect from any ftp client to <local ip>:6000
[21:12] <drvanon> well, I just wanted to easily share files with other pcs
[21:12] <Xtreme> drvanon: eg, i had a ftp server on 1.2 with port 6000, and to access it from 1.3, i used 192.168.1.2:6000 to its ftp client
[21:12] <Xtreme> drvanon: over internet or only lan??
[21:12] <drvanon> just lan (house only)
[21:13] <drvanon> we are all under the same router
[21:13] <Xtreme> why ftp, doesnt linux have like network group? like in windows.. i am sure it does
[21:13] <Xtreme> try that
[21:13] <shadykhan> is there a way to restart my GUI?
[21:13] <shadykhan> without logging out/in
[21:13] <area51pilot> drvanon: just place a dedicated system on the network and share the folder unless u are looking for more security .. can do this in Ubuntu and ... umm ... "W"
[21:13] <Xtreme> shadykhan: end session and startx, dont log out
[21:13] <shadykhan> thx
[21:14] <shadykhan> because all my title bars disappeared
[21:14] <drvanon> area51pilot: what is a dedicated systeM?
[21:14] <shadykhan> and its annoying
[21:14] <Xtreme> drvanon: ur ftp server
[21:14] <area51pilot> drvanon: one that is always available on the network to share files to other systems
[21:14] <Xtreme> drvanon: the one u wanted to make ftp server to be exact
[21:15] <drvanon> can that just be my router?
[21:15] <drvanon> or should it be pc like?
[21:15] <area51pilot> drvanon: router as a file server?
[21:15] <Xtreme> it has to be something with a harddrive and storage space
[21:15] <area51pilot> ^    :)
[21:15] <drvanon> area51pilot: okay, pc like
[21:16] <area51pilot> drvanon: yes
[21:16] <drvanon> what if i turn off the pc?
[21:16] <drvanon> what will happen to the data?
[21:16] <Xtreme> boom goes the server :)
[21:16] <area51pilot> drvanon: then no files will be avail
[21:16] <area51pilot> until u turn it on
[21:16] <drvanon> okay
[21:16] <drvanon> how can i make such a server?
[21:16] <Xtreme> area51pilot: this part, i want to learn too
[21:17] <area51pilot> u dont even need a server .. just a computer with a share on it
[21:17] <drvanon> area51pilot: we are all listening to you
[21:17] <drvanon> area51pilot: he? what exactly do you mean
[21:17] <drvanon> area51pilot: and how to achieve that?
[21:17] <Xtreme> he means, u just need to enable sharing
[21:18] <Xtreme> and let other computers join that sharing netwrok
[21:18] <KittyTeeth> this may not be a linux issue but using natty and using the Banshee Media Player with cd,,,while playing cd is there a way to save the audio on the computer in linux?
[21:18] <area51pilot> place a computer on the LAN that will always be on so that the files on it are always available to other users
[21:18] <Fizzik> drvanon: install samba on the ubuntu machine and look up a samba guide on google?
[21:18] <drvanon> okay
[21:18] <area51pilot> drvanon: which OS do u want to use?
[21:18] <area51pilot> Ubuntu or the other?
[21:19] <Xtreme> Fizzik: is it true that ubuntu has inbuild support for windows file and printer sharing?
[21:19] <auronandace> Xtreme: thats samba
[21:19] <auronandace> !samba | Xtreme
[21:19] <area51pilot> drvanon: sharing a folder in Ubuntu is fairly simple
[21:20] <drvanon> area51pilot: how?
[21:20] <area51pilot> at least with the newer versions
[21:20] <Xtreme> auronandace: hi bro, how are you?? missed u earlier
[21:21] <auronandace> Xtreme: did someone else help you?
[21:22] <area51pilot> drvanon: depends on which release but there is system setting/preferences for allowing file sharing
[21:22] <i7c> webcams and stuff like that... can simply be unplugged or can i somehow disable the usb connection before?
[21:22] <area51pilot> drvanon: what type of hardware are you planning on using?
[21:22] <area51pilot> drvanon: newer or older?
[21:23] <drvanon> 11.04 maybe xp
[21:23] <drvanon> think 11.04
[21:23] <reCAPTCHA> Hey, I want to delete an old partition in gparted, but every time I try to do so it says "Unable to delete /dev/sda5! Please unmount any logical partition having a number higher than 5.
[21:23] <Xtreme> yup, solved most of problems. except 2.. 1) when my ubuntu hang, i can press ctrl+alt+f1 to go back to terminal.. but how can i terminate application from there? 2) i want to remove kget from startup, i tried startup and shutdown in settings, but kget is not there.
[21:24] <drvanon> area51pilot: is it something with proxys?
[21:24] <auronandace> Xtreme: kget? not familiar with that. kde app?
[21:24] <area51pilot> drvanon: pick one and go from there. In Win its very easy, right click on a folder and go to properties ... you will see a tab to share the folder with other network users
[21:25] <Xtreme> kget is kde graphical gui for wget.. just like gwget for gnome
[21:25] <area51pilot> drvanon: no proxies
[21:25] <auronandace> Xtreme: and that gets started automatically?
[21:25] <Xtreme> yes it does
[21:25] <drvanon> area51pilot: how to do that in ubuntu?
[21:25] <auronandace> Xtreme: odd
[21:25] <LjL> Xtreme: considering it doesn't even have wget as a dependency, i would doubt that :P
[21:25] <auronandace> !upstart | Xtreme
[21:26] <area51pilot> drvanon:  you going to use 11.04?
[21:26] <drvanon> yes
[21:27] <drvanon> area51pilot: found button
[21:27] <drvanon> shared it
[21:27] <drvanon> but now i dont know how to get it from the other pcs
[21:28] <area51pilot> drvanon: from another PC browse the network for the system u shared the file on
[21:28] <drvanon> how to browse a network
[21:28] <drvanon> ?
[21:28] <area51pilot> drvanon: when you select that system all available shares should be visible
[21:28] <drvanon> how to select a system?
[21:29] <area51pilot> drvanon: from your file manager you should see an option to "Browse the Network"
[21:30] <drvanon> a
[21:30] <drvanon> hh
[21:30] <area51pilot> double click on it and you should see network devices
[21:30] <Xtreme> LjL: i read like that someplace.. i just installed to check.. anyways,, i like wqet more, its faster then others
[21:30] <area51pilot> drvanon: then click on the computer that hosts the shared files
[21:30] <Xtreme> auronandace: reading the documents :) thanks
[21:31] <i7c> webcams and stuff like that... can simply be unplugged or can i somehow disable the usb connection before?
[21:31] <drvanon> area51pilot: how would i do that? in filezilla?
[21:31] <area51pilot> drvanon: filezilla is an FTP client
[21:31] <area51pilot> u dont need it to do this
[21:32] <drvanon> what do you recommend?
[21:32] <dekuked> is there an easy way to install the proprietary catalyst driver via the command line?
[21:32] <area51pilot> drvanon: any PC (Ubuntu or Win) can accomplish this from the file manager or windows explorer
[21:34] <drvanon> area51pilot: where in nautilus would i find that?
[21:34] <drvanon> if it is nautilus?
[21:34] <drvanon> found it
[21:34] <area51pilot> :)
[21:34] <drvanon> area51pilot: you just earned carma
[21:35] <Xtreme> area51pilot: no its not
[21:35] <Xtreme> area51pilot: it is also a ftp server
[21:35] <Xtreme> area51pilot: a darn good one infact
[21:35] <X-tonic> why is ubuntu so restrictive with GTK themes since 11.10? Initially it provided so many lot more.
[21:35] <area51pilot> Xtreme  ?
[21:35] <Xtreme> filezilla is not only ftp client, but also a ftp server
[21:35] <area51pilot> filezilla does have a server ... but im not going there with this conversation  :P
[21:36] <drvanon> area51pilot: but what would be my password?
[21:36] <area51pilot> I just set one up on XP cause i couldnt get a good *nix version up and running quick
[21:36] <area51pilot> Xtreme: I agree
[21:36] <area51pilot> ;)
[21:36] <area51pilot> drvanon: did you password the file folder share?
[21:37] <drvanon> not that i know
[21:37] <drvanon> sorry was the printer
[21:37] <area51pilot> there should not be a password unless you set one ... else it might be a pass on the machine youre accessing
[21:37] <area51pilot> drvanon: baby steps  :D
[21:38] <area51pilot> have u tried searching this subject online ... visual aids may assist u
[21:38] <trism> X-tonic: I don't imagine we will see many themes in the repos until gnome provides tools to change them by default. for the moment extracting themes to ~/.themes and installing gnome-tweak-tool works though
[21:38] <area51pilot> drvanon: u r sooo close I can feel it
[21:39] <angelus> hi all
[21:39] <area51pilot> drvanon: I need to go take care of a stupd Win server right now ... be back later on
[21:39] <area51pilot> users whining  .... ugh!
[21:40] <drvanon> area51pilot: realy thabks for your help
[21:40] <drvanon> i think ill fix it to nifht
[21:40] <area51pilot> drvanon: anytime!  have a great day!
[21:40] <X-tonic> trism, i understand. But my only issue is that gnome-tweak-tool has gnome-shell as dependency. Which sort of ruins my personal choice of not wanting to install things which i dont use. :(
[21:41] <angelus> I'm having big problems with flash and my graphic card . Suddenly some black pixels show an strange background like if graphic memory doesn't clean . I can see it when i make a glxgears .
[21:41] <angelus> but if i try to make an screenshot it doesn't show that strange pixels
[21:42] <angelus> any idea?
[21:44] <Xtreme> angelus: maybe lost souls are trying to make contact with you..  sorry, i am new to ubuntu myself... but someone else will help u for sure
[21:45] <angelus> thanks Xtreme
[21:45] <angelus> i have been using ubuntu 5 years ago
[21:45] <scott_z> How can I have a program start at boot or login (like an autoexec.bat)?
[21:45] <angelus> and this strange things always happen with flash
[21:45] <Noorideen> what are the differences between ubuntu and fedora?
[21:45] <angelus> fedora is redhat
[21:46] <Noorideen> angelus i never used ubuntu yet
[21:46] <Noorideen> gunna start using it from tomorrow
[21:46] <Noorideen> some guy told me fedora is better
[21:46] <Noorideen> is that true?
[21:47] <zykotick9> scott_z: for boot check rc.local, for login depends on the DE
[21:47] <angelus> the term best doesn't fit this
[21:47] <angelus> is a linux flavour Noorideen
[21:47] <angelus> i think its ok when all things runs good from start
[21:47] <scott_z> zykotick9: DE?
[21:47] <Noorideen> angelus: so are you telling to start using ubuntu?
[21:47] <angelus> but i doesn't like so much redhat , at less like a desktop system
[21:48] <angelus> at less test it Noorideen
[21:48] <angelus> and i don't like the unity desktop
[21:48] <angelus> try to use clasic gnome one
[21:48] <Areckx> Is there a way to access this channel's log file from yesterday?
[21:48] <Noorideen> whats gnome?
[21:48] <Noorideen> sorry if i am annoying you
[21:48] <Noorideen> but..
[21:48] <angelus> ubuntu is a linus os
[21:48] <Areckx> gnome is a graphical interface
[21:48] <Areckx> Noorideen,
[21:48] <angelus> gnome is a graphical desktop interface
[21:49] <muelli> Areckx: I think there are archives. Google will know.
[21:49] <wylde> !logs | Areckx
[21:49] <Areckx> muelli,  so I type freenode #ubuntu
[21:49] <bagels> Hey what's the room for ubu v 12?
[21:49] <Areckx> wylde,  thanks
[21:49] <Xtreme> !gnome | Noorideen
[21:49] <wylde> !precise | bagels
[21:49] <bagels> thank youuuuu~
[21:49] <Noorideen> angelus: thank you
[21:50] <angelus> you're wellcome
[21:50] <angelus> im still using ubuntu 11.04
[21:50] <angelus> then i can't tell you about 12
[21:50] <zykotick9> scott_z: DE = Desktop Environment (Gnome,KDE,XFCE,etc)
[21:51] <Xtreme> angelus: i prefer kde..
[21:52] <scott_z> zykotick9: I have Gnome (if that is the stock DE on install) searching now for location of rc.local. Sorry for all the newbie questions, but I am one.
[21:52] <angelus> Xtreme i think KDE is a powerfull team with no right way
[21:52] <Roasted> does restricted-extras include java?
[21:52] <angelus> i think so Roasted
[21:52] <WneASTa9>  /etc/rc.local
[21:52] <Xtreme> well, reason i use kde is its like windows.. little more friendly.. thats the way i find it though
[21:53] <Xtreme> many people dont prefer kde.. i tried gnome too
[21:53] <zykotick9> scott_z: you should find some sort of autorun in the menu for Gnome/Unity - sorry I haven't used gnome3 so don't know what it's called.
[21:53] <angelus> When problem comes gnome will save your ass :D
[21:53] <angelus> :D
[21:54] <scott_z> zyotick9: I have 3 rc.local files in /etc/init.d, /etc, and /var/lib/update-rc.d
[21:54] <wylde> !restricted | Roasted
[21:54] <zykotick9> Roasted: openjava yes
[21:54] <Roasted> zykotick9, doesn't appear as if it loaded what I needed.
[21:54] <zykotick9> scott_z: what is it you want to run?  and do you want it at boot or login?
[21:54] <Roasted> zykotick9, this web gui for an hp laserjet is tanking saying I need a plugin. Firefox took me to install iced tea. loading it now from synaptic to see if chrome behaves now.
[21:55] <Roasted> zykotick9, iced tea worked. :D
[21:55] <zykotick9> Roasted: FYI icedtea is the openjava plugin
[21:55] <Roasted> zykotick9, nice. It didn't work after I installed restricted-extras tho.
[21:56] <angelus> search jre in sypnaptic
[21:56] <angelus> and install java one
[21:56] <zykotick9> angelus: sun-java is no longer in the repos
[21:56] <pankaj> can i swear?
[21:56] <zykotick9> !language | pankaj
[21:56] <angelus> oh really? ¬¬
[21:56] <scott_z> zykotick9: It is just a program and I guess at login is fine as if i boot my machine I log in. The package (program) is BOINC. It runs in the background all the time and I have to start it each time I boot or login and sometimes I forget.
[21:57] <pankaj> just wanna have some fun
[21:57] <pankaj> can i?
[21:57] <zykotick9> scott_z: using the menu options vs rc.local is probably a lot easier - but that will run at login, not boot.
[21:57] <wylde> !autostart | scott_z
[21:57] <MonkeyDust> pankaj  have fun in #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:57] <zykotick9> !ot | pankaj
[21:57] <zykotick9> wylde: thanks!  scott_z
[21:58] <wylde> :)
[21:58] <angelus> no idea of why flash hash steal part of my memory graphic card ?
[21:58] <angelus> some black zones shows me an strange background in many apps while having crashes with flash and the last chrome

[22:03] <scott_z> Next question. I have set my default video player to kaffeine in system info: default applications, but when I double click on an AVI file it still launches movie  player. I have to right click on the AVI and select open with and then kaffiene. Any ideas?
[22:05] <trism> scott_z: right click on one of the avi and go to Properties, then check that the default in the open with tab is kaffeine
[22:07] <scott_z> trism: thanks that worked!
[22:10] <JPeterso2> how do i symlink on ntfs?
[22:11] <WneASTa9> from Ubuntu?
[22:11] <JPeterso2> yes
[22:12] <JPeterso2> ln -s fails on ntfs, ln: creating symbolic link `link': Operation not supported
[22:12] <NurseDad> what is the name of the utility that allows ubuntu to be installed in windows like a program?
[22:12] <wylde> !wubi | NurseDad
[22:12] <itaylor57> !wubi | NurseDad
[22:12] <WneASTa9> I don't think you do. A "junction" is the closest analog to symlinks on NTFS, and I don't know of a *nix driver that supports them
[22:13] <NurseDad> is Wudi safe?
[22:13] <hypn0> ;-))
[22:14] <irvken> NurseDad, what do you mean by safe?
[22:14] <wylde> NurseDad: I've never used it myself.
[22:14] <NurseDad> what r the chances it will screw up my windows install
[22:14] <ReXHaviK> JPeterso2: look at 'how to vfs a ntfs partition' , once the ntfs is seen as a local (vfs) you can symlink to your hearts content
[22:15] <irvken> none, only you can do that
[22:15] <NurseDad> LOL
[22:15] <WneASTa9> ReXHaviK: is the ntfs partition still usable when mounted back on a windows box?
[22:16] <ReXHaviK> WneASTa9: you mean real time share? not sure i would do that
[22:17] <ReXHaviK> WneASTa9: otherwise yes
[22:17] <WneASTa9> ReXHaviK: no, I mean after you've dropped a bunch of symlinks in your NTFS partition, how does a Windows box handle them?
[22:17] <WneASTa9> does it just see them as junctions?
[22:19] <ReXHaviK> WneASTa9: the links on the ntfs?
[22:19] <WneASTa9> yes
[22:19] <wylde> !ntfs

[22:42] <Zkye> First of all I'm new to ubuntu and it's kind of complicated for me because I don't know anything about linux.
[22:42] <WneASTa9> you still have to ask a question before anyone can provide help
[22:42] <cocolos> ^ Agreed
[22:42] <Zkye> So far I managed to install ubuntu 11.10 on an old PC I have
[22:42] <cocolos> Zkye: what's the problem?
[22:43] <Zkye> The first problem is that I don't know if all the hardware that is inside my desktop is actually working
[22:43] <scott_z> in the classicmenu-indicator, how do you tell what each icon launches? (like a right click/ proporties in windows)
[22:43] <Zkye> Like my graphics card...
[22:43] <oavoo> hello every one.
[22:43] <oavoo> i am new here
[22:43] <WneASTa9> Zkye: if you have graphics, your graphics card is probably working ;)
[22:43] <StepNjump> I am trying to search all files EXCEPT for the hidden ones. How would I do that?: find -iname . -type f
[22:44] <Iarfen> How I can see the encoding of the files on Ubuntu??
[22:44] <scott_z> in other words what would i type in a terminal window to launch the program
[22:44] <Zkye> I've looked up serveral ways to check my hardware on ubuntu but they all seem so complicaed, I have to put in commands and commands and i don't even know where
[22:45] <wylde> Iarfen: 'file path/to/filename'
[22:45] <dalek_> Hey, does anyone know how to force virtualbox to quit from command line? It has frozen in full screen and I can't get back to the host OS.
[22:45] <Zkye> I have graphics, but I know like in Windows, my graphics card works when I first install Windows, but it's mostly laggy and then I need to install the actual driver and it works fine, but I don't know if ubuntu is using a backup system or if the card is fully working...
[22:45] <Iarfen> wylde: xD ty!!
[22:45] <oavoo> ctrl f4
[22:46] <oavoo> on windows
[22:46] <Carraway2> exit
[22:46] <Iarfen> wylde: it doesn't work... it only says me PHP file, not if it's on utf-8 or another charset...
[22:46] <Zkye> that's my first problem
[22:46] <Zkye> second is my internet is not working... But I'll wait untill y first problem is answered
[22:47] <WneASTa9> Zkye: commands and the terminal are a big part of Linux. Ubuntu does away with a lot of the need for deep digging but not all of it.
[22:47] <wylde> Iarfen: hmm ok, I misunderstood your question. I assumed you wanted it for media files :)
[22:47] <Iarfen> wylde: no, I need to save my files on utf-8
[22:48] <dlentz> Zkye, glxinfo is useful to make sure full 3D is working ( sudo apt-get install mesa-utils; glxinfo )
[22:48] <Zkye> So how can I check wich hardware ubuntu is recognising, and which it isn't
[22:48] <StepNjump> It's weird there is a ls -a that lists all files Including the hidden ones but nothing that will list all files Except the hidden ones!
[22:48] <Zkye> dlentz: is that a command that I need internet connection for?
[22:49] <dlentz> Zkye, yes, so forget it. just tell us what GPU you have
[22:49] <wylde> Iarfen: 'file -i something.php'
[22:50] <Iarfen> wylde: ok ty!!
[22:50] <zykotick9> StepNjump: you mean "ls"?
[22:51] <wylde> Iarfen: show the index.php in the root of my webserver as "index.php: text/x-php; charset=us-ascii"
[22:51] <StepNjump> zykotick9: well yes but recursively
[22:51] <zykotick9> StepNjump: "ls -R"?
[22:51] <Iarfen> wylde: so it's good if the charset is us-ascii??? I don't need to change it to utf-8??
[22:52] <StepNjump> zykotick9: I was more thinking of find -iname . -type f !=hidden
[22:52] <wylde> Iarfen: I wouldn't think so. I imagine you'd only have to be concerned if you were using special characters.
[22:52] <Iarfen> wylde: I'm using characters like ñ and other similars....
[22:53] <wylde> StepNjump: 'ls -RA /home/$USER'
[22:53] <Zkye> where can i see what GPU I have ?
[22:53] <zykotick9> Zkye: "lspci | grep -i vga" is one way
[22:54] <Zkye> zykotick9: is that a command ?
[22:54] <dlentz> Zkye, yes
[22:54] <zykotick9> Zkye: yes, run from terminal
[22:54] <Zkye> where do I input it?
[22:54] <Zkye> where can i find this terminal?
[22:54] <zykotick9> !terminal
[22:55] <wylde> Iarfen: I'm not sure, sorry. I've never had to worry about that. I never had enough special charaters on a page to need different encoding.
[22:55] <bizzarrone> hi
[22:55] <bizzarrone> ciao a tutti
[22:55] <StepNjump> wylde: oh thanks, I didn't know about -A
[22:55] <bizzarrone> una domanda per gli smanettoni...
[22:55] <Zkye> ok I've got the terminal I think... Now what do I type exactly to know what GPU I have?
[22:55] <bizzarrone> qualcuno che parla italiano?
[22:55] <zykotick9> !it | bizzarrone
[22:55] <StepNjump> wylde: but what I'm really to do is something like this find . -type f \( -iname "*.txt" ! -iname ".*" \)
[22:56] <zykotick9> Zkye: "lspci | grep -i vga"
[22:56] <wylde> StepNjump: most commands have a --help flag. You can get all kinds of info there :)
[22:56] <bizzarrone> sorry, i supposed to be on #sistemisti channel. sorry
[22:56] <StepNjump> wylde: zykotick9 ... through some conditions, I am trying to list all those files that match the criteria except for .* files
[22:56] <itaylor57> or even man pages it seems
[22:57] <wylde> StepNjump: ok so you want to find all the text files recursively through the directory structure? The -A flag ignores . files.
[22:57] <Zkye> zykotick9: the respons I got was: "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV43 [GeForce 6610 XL] (rev a2)
[22:58] <zykotick9> Zkye: so you have an nvidia 6610XL it seems
[22:58] <StepNjump> Ok thanks guys. I found it
[22:58] <Zkye> so it seems, now how do I know if it fully works
[22:58] <wylde> StepNjump: moment, I'm going to pipe 'ls -RA /mywebdir/*.php' to pastebin. Then tell me if that's similar to what you want.
[22:59] <StepNjump> wylde: no it's more like I was trying to find all files greater than a certain size except for the hidden ones
[22:59] <zykotick9> Zkye: well, "fully works"?  you can either use the opensource Nouveau driver, or the proprietary nvidia driver (you probably want the later)
[22:59] <wylde> StepNjump: ahh alrighty.
[23:00] <Zkye> ... note that the PC where Ubuntu is currently installed on has no internet, where do I donwload an ubunto compatible driver and hwo do I install it?
[23:00] <zykotick9> Zkye: trying to use ubuntu without internet is "difficult"
[23:01] <Oer> !offline
[23:01] <Zkye> zykotick9: ... no... don't tell me that... WHY ?
[23:01] <bizzarrone> could I ask a stupid question about VirtualBox? just a question about the performance and the usb support..
[23:01] <fleischwolf> hi everyone. i'm looking for a no-gui-live-version of ubuntu. is there one ?
[23:03] <akem> don't think so, but you can boot the regular one in text mode i guess or directly switch to console...
[23:03] <Zkye> zykotick9: the main problem is... I have an ethernet controller in my PC, and with a working eternet cable in it(it gives internet to my pc next to it if i try it) but ubuntu doesn't get connected with the internet
[23:03] <daftykins> bizzarrone: i'll bet there's a virtualbox channel :D
[23:03] <zykotick9> daftykins: #vbox
[23:04] <daftykins> zykotick9: er yeah now tell him that :)
[23:05] <Zkye> zykotick9: It's a VIA VT6105
[23:05] <fleischwolf> akem: i'm asking, because i want a ram-only-setup with a small database, so i want only a minimalist setting to provide enough space. is ubuntu the right choice for that anyway ?
[23:05] <wylde> !mini | fleischwolf
[23:06] <Zkye> ...?
[23:07] <fleischwolf> wylde: thanks for the link. does "installation" refer to an actual hd-installation or can i keep it in the ram ?
[23:11] <wylde> fleischwolf: I can't say I've tried that, but I imagine you could.
[23:11] <Zkye> So no one can answer my question?
[23:12] <wylde> fleischwolf: you may need soemthing else for the setup you want though. hmmm.
[23:13] <fleischwolf> wylde: i would only need support for internet (cable), a ssh daemon, an apache and mysql
[23:14] <wylde> fleischwolf: I don't think the mini iso is what you want then. Some live cd that will load to ram. Or, use an ltsp server to boot from heh. That's how I use the old hardware I have out in the garage. :)
[23:15] <wylde> fleischwolf: no disk in that pc whatsoever.
[23:15] <SlydidarSlider> U bunt too. fuck off bitches. I'll kill you and your pc.
[23:15] <SlydidarSlider> what dog??
[23:16] <wylde> SlydidarSlider:  /point /lol
[23:16] <SlydidarSlider> I represent. Fucking scalliwags.
[23:17] <fleischwolf> wylde: i wouldn't need remote-application-access. it's just for a private torrent-server i want to set up for me and my roommates
[23:19] <wylde> fleischwolf: right, I guess a live cd is your best bet then. You can install packages into the live session as long as you don't run out of space on the "ram disk".
[23:19] <ss23`> Hey, I have an Ubuntu 11.10 live CD, and I'm just wanting to backup some stuff off the HDD to a windows sahre, but I can't seem to figure out how to mount windows shares. I see in the home browser thingy, and a "browse network" -> "windows network", however the windows network tab never seems to load if I click on it, it seems to just say loading, but either not load, or just "stop" loading without doing anythign (as in, actl ike I nev
[23:20] <ss23`> Is there something else I could be doing to mount a windows share? Preferably being able to browse the different shares without having to explictly define a Pc name + share (as in, being able to browse the shares)
[23:21] <fleischwolf> wylde: yeah, i was worrying about the space, so i thought it would be cool to have only a basic install in ram, so there is enough room for the database. still not sure, if ubuntu is the right choice. there is a bunch of minimalist distros on the web, but it's not clear which have ram-only-support
[23:21] <zykotick9> fleischwolf: you can't install or run ubuntu from RAM only, you need some sort of media to install to.
[23:21] <bizzarrone> daftykins, I am there in fact, thank u!
[23:22] <fleischwolf> zykotick9: i don't want to install it from ram, i just want to run it in ram, filesystem and all
[23:22] <daftykins> >:D
[23:22] <daftykins> np
[23:22] <zykotick9> fleischwolf: i've never heard of any linux distro you can run exclusivly from RAM - i don't see how that would be possilbe
[23:22] <wylde> fleischwolf: lots do, altho we're probably gonna get slapped with an !ot, since we're wandering off Ubuntu Support :)
[23:22] <fleischwolf> wylde: should i ask in #linux ?
[23:22] <bizzarrone> hi all, is there a way to list or search a program installed on system with apt-cache ?
[23:23] <fleischwolf> zykotick9: why shouldn't it be possible ?
[23:23]  * zykotick9 this RAM disk thing seems popular with the minecraft crowd - makes no sense to me.
[23:23] <bizzarrone> I mean, to filter the search only on installed SW.
[23:23] <wylde> fleischwolf: I don't see why not, probably get some useful opinions and answers in there.
[23:23] <zykotick9> !pm Zkye in channel please :)
[23:23] <zykotick9> !pm | Zkye in channel please :)
[23:24] <jrib> bizzarrone: if you want powerful package searching, I'd suggest using aptitude
[23:24] <fleischwolf> wylde: ok, i'll try it there. i was just asking in here, because i like ubuntu a lot :) thanks for your help
[23:24] <wylde> fleischwolf: np :)
[23:24] <jrib> bizzarrone: if you're more specific about what you want to do though, maybe there is another way
[23:24] <zykotick9> jrib: +1 on aptitudes searching power.  but there are odd cases with it's search.  bizzarrone
[23:25] <bizzarrone> jrib, ok. I mean.. I want to search all SW that contains sudoku into the installed packages on my system.
[23:25] <jrib> bizzarrone: contains "sudoku" where?  In the name of the package?
[23:25] <bizzarrone> yes.
[23:26] <jrib> bizzarrone: you can do this if you don't want to use aptitude: dpkg -l | grep '^ii' | grep sudoku
[23:27] <bizzarrone> maybe I found .. --installed option in apt-cache
[23:27] <bizzarrone> jrib,  I will try
[23:27] <bizzarrone> your comand
[23:28] <jrib> bizzarrone: in aptitude you could just do: aptitude search '~i~nsudoku'
[23:28] <Areckx> ok so java is really not wanting to work
[23:28] <bizzarrone> jrib, thank you
[23:29] <icallitvera> what it do
[23:29] <Areckx> I just installed jre1areckx@areckx:~$ java -version
[23:29] <Areckx> java version "1.7.0_03"
[23:29] <Areckx> Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_03-b04)
[23:29] <Areckx> Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 22.1-b02, mixed mode)
[23:29] <Areckx> areckx@areckx:~$ javac -version
[23:29] <FloodBot1> Areckx: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:29] <Areckx> The program 'javac' can be found in the following packages:
[23:29] <wylde> bizzarrone: 'apt-cache pkgnames | grep sudoku' would work too
[23:29] <fellayaboy> is it possible to send a fax to my hp allin one printer...it supports fax..
[23:30] <wylde> Areckx: really? Didi you forget about pastebin already?
[23:30] <jrib> wylde: would that search only installed packages though?
[23:30] <MrUnagi> Which proxy do I need if I want to encrypt all of my internet traffic
[23:30] <Areckx> sorry, http://paste.ubuntu.com/936187/
[23:30] <wylde> jrib: whoops my bad got ahead of myself.
[23:30] <icallitvera> MrUnagi a  router one
[23:31] <MrUnagi> There's not one that will do it at the end user?
[23:31] <Areckx> wylde,  please forgive me, I am not perfect
[23:31] <fellayaboy> im using a cable modem (not dsl or telephone company, but my fax machine at home is connect to a phone line which can fax just fine...is it possible i could send me file to get faxed remotely?
[23:31] <icallitvera> Areckx the javac is in a different package (the compiler)
[23:31] <Areckx> icallitvera,  oh I thought jdk was for developrs
[23:32] <icallitvera> MrUnagi idk theres TOR and i2p but as far as i know you have to set up each application to use the proxy
[23:33] <Areckx> so if I download jdk1.7.03 and do the same process for that will it work?
[23:34] <Areckx> I used this guide http://www.wikihow.com/Install-Oracle-Java-on-Ubuntu-Linux
[23:34] <marcm> if I install Ubuntu 12.04 beta 2, can I just upgrade to the release when the release becomes available, or do I need to do a reinstall?
[23:34] <jrib> marcm: the former
[23:34] <icallitvera> Areckx can i ask why you installed it like that?
[23:35] <Areckx> icallitvera,  I couldn't figure out any other way to install java

[23:39] <JRWR> I wanted some advice on a file system to use on across 5-10 servers that have a shared block device (iSCSI), GlusterFS and LusterFS seem to be it, but they dont say anything about shared block device support
[23:40] <Areckx> I think icedtea is a solution for openjdk?
[23:40] <wylde> Areckx: yep
[23:40] <FloodBot1> !netsplit

[23:41] <Jordan_U> JRWR: You might get try asking in #ubuntu-server.
[23:44] <ahmad> Salam everyone
[23:44] <Areckx> hihi
[23:44] <zacarias_> Hi. How do you alocate more memory to java in Ubuntu?
[23:44] <Areckx> Yay icedtea works
[23:45] <Areckx> are any of these not safe? http://www.stchman.com/essen_pack.html
[23:46] <icallitvera> Areckx these are all already in the repositories so they should be okay
[23:46] <icallitvera> just read what it is taht they do
[23:46] <zacarias> Hi. How do you alocate more memory to java in Ubuntu?
[23:46] <Areckx> icallitvera,  oh ok, just checking to see if the creater of that website is legit
[23:46] <Areckx> http://www.stchman.com/
[23:47] <icallitvera> zacarias have you tried the man pages? (google minecraft server launch command) sometimes they give how to launch with allocated memory
[23:47] <Areckx> I am always careful if ever asked to do an add-apt
[23:47] <Areckx> how secure is my sudo password?
[23:47] <icallitvera> Areckx yes with add-apt you should be more careful but with the standard repos you hsould be good
[23:47] <efbeye> Areckx, give it to me, i'll let you know ;)
[23:47] <icallitvera> Areckx depends on what it is
[23:48] <Areckx> efbeye,  lmao
[23:48] <Loshki> zacarias: see -Xmx on the java man page....
[23:48] <Areckx> what I mean is, if someone hacks my system using my IP or otherwise, would they have access to my sudo pasword?
[23:48] <Areckx> is it located in a file?
[23:48] <efbeye> can't you use encryption for something like that?
[23:49] <jrib> Areckx: of course it isn't
[23:49] <icallitvera> Areckx no
[23:49] <itaylor57> zacarias, http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/how-to-allocate-memory-to-java-763703/
[23:49] <Areckx> how does the system remember what the password is without it being in a file?
[23:49] <jrib> Areckx: it stores a hash of your password
[23:49] <zacarias> Loshki: it works with an installed app that you want to open. But what about an online applet?
[23:49] <Areckx> !hash | Areckx
[23:49] <icallitvera> Areckx i assume that its stores it in a encrypted file or  something like that
[23:50] <Areckx> ok is there a list of !commands for this channel?
[23:50] <jrib> Areckx: sudo grep $USEr /etc/shadow will show you what it stores if you're interested
[23:50] <jrib> Areckx: sudo grep $USER /etc/shadow will show you what it stores if you're interested
[23:51] <metbsd> will linux desktop replace windows?
[23:51] <jrib> !ot | metbsd
[23:51] <Areckx> metbsd,  no since it is always a matter of personal preference
[23:52] <itaylor57> zacarias, http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/guide/plugin/developer_guide/console.html
[23:52] <Areckx> oh and http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi
[23:53] <itaylor57> zacarias, not the most current but you set it via the java console
[23:54] <zacarias> itaylor57: how do I do that?
[23:54] <itaylor57> it should be in our applications
[23:55] <itaylor57> i forget exactly how you do it in ubuntu but it should be system _> applications
[23:55] <itaylor57> or listed in your applications from dash
[23:56] <zacarias> itaylor57: I have the openjdk... I'll try that. Thanks
