| LostMonk | how do I open a port for net usage? | 02:00 |
|---|---|---|
| LostMonk | I need to open it for my torrent client | 02:00 |
| Enkidu_ak | Hi. I've configured a usbnetwork device under /etc/network/interface for a static ip, and when I connect the device that config is applied. However, between a few seconds and a minute later, NetworkManager seems to overwrite that setting, dropping the ip assignment and generally fouling things up. When I reconfigure the device manually those settings are again overwritten. Can I instruct NetworkManager to ignore that device all together? | 02:02 |
| Deutopia | lostmonk; to open a port, that is configured on the firewall or router. | 02:02 |
| Deutopia | portforward.com | 02:04 |
| LostMonk | Deutopia: but I had no torrent issues when I was on winblows | 02:04 |
| Deutopia | lostmonk; opening and closing ports is done with a firewall (a router is a firewall) linux has built in iptables /chains and functions as a great firewall, but i doubt you have taken the time to write an access control list or anything of the sort. | 02:07 |
| LostMonk | I havent installed a firewall | 02:11 |
| LostMonk | im on a default 12.10 install | 02:11 |
| Deutopia | thats what i was saying. | 02:11 |
| tsimpson | your router has a firewall built in | 02:11 |
| Deutopia | your router is the firewall | 02:11 |
| LostMonk | ok | 02:11 |
| Deutopia | portforward.com | 02:12 |
| LostMonk | but why would it react differint to a nix machine rather than windows? | 02:12 |
| Enkidu_ak | It seems that disabling the connection in NetworkManager will cause NM to leave it alone. | 02:12 |
| LostMonk | it worked fine 3 days ago | 02:12 |
| Deutopia | UPnP | 02:12 |
| LostMonk | and I just opened a 10k port range | 02:12 |
| Deutopia | well the other computers on the network are kinda screwed. but no. you have other issues then because as you said, the port is already open | 02:13 |
| LostMonk | ok | 02:13 |
| LostMonk | i opened 35k-45k | 02:13 |
| LostMonk | so, should be fine | 02:13 |
| tsimpson | if your application(s) listen on one of those ports in the 10K range | 02:14 |
| tsimpson | and you have them forwarding to the correct internal IP | 02:14 |
| Deutopia | so assign your torrent app to use those ports (at this point id run a packet capture to see if the torrent app is actually transmitting/recieving) | 02:14 |
| LostMonk | it downloads, but doesnt seed | 02:14 |
| Deutopia | double check and make sure your IP hasnt changed? | 02:15 |
| LostMonk | already checked that | 02:15 |
| Deutopia | says seeding but doesnt seed? | 02:15 |
| LostMonk | right | 02:15 |
| LostMonk | with plenty of peers | 02:15 |
| SIR_Taco | maybe your peers don't want to associate with you? ;) | 02:16 |
| Deutopia | check to see if your router supports and is not in shadow or passive mode | 02:16 |
| Deutopia | well that wouldnt be it | 02:16 |
| Deutopia | cuz it worked 3 days ago | 02:16 |
| LostMonk | its only been since I went to nix | 02:17 |
| LostMonk | and I hve tried like 4 different clients | 02:17 |
| LostMonk | LOL | 02:17 |
| LostMonk | just to make sure that wasnt it | 02:17 |
| Deutopia | sounds like a software issue. either linux or the app isnt communicating properly, peers cant directly connect to you, or theres just no interest in the torrent | 02:17 |
| LostMonk | right | 02:18 |
| LostMonk | there is plenty of leeches | 02:18 |
| LostMonk | so, im trying to figure out what kind of linux issue it could be | 02:18 |
| Deutopia | yeah im at a loss. it downloads and uploads fine undill it seeds, and this is with 4 clients... | 02:19 |
| === cowboy is now known as Guest73015 | ||

| rufsketch1 | Hello everyone | 02:20 |
| rufsketch1 | I had my home directory stored on a separate drive from my main directory | 02:21 |
| rufsketch1 | the drive with the home directory is dead | 02:21 |
| Deutopia | photorec | 02:21 |
| rufsketch1 | and now I can't log in to KDE because there is no config file stored for anyone | 02:21 |
| rufsketch1 | what should I do? | 02:21 |
| rufsketch1 | Is there any way to make a new KDE compaitble home directory from the command line? | 02:21 |
| rufsketch1 | this is kubuntu 10.10 btw | 02:22 |
| Deutopia | copy one from a live disk | 02:22 |
| rufsketch1 | I do not have a live disk | 02:22 |
| rufsketch1 | or an empty cd | 02:22 |
| rufsketch1 | usb booting seems to not work | 02:22 |
| SIR_Taco | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 02:23 |
| Deutopia | there we go | 02:24 |
| rufsketch1 | SIR_Taco: there is no home directory to move | 02:24 |
| rufsketch1 | the drive that had it is dead | 02:24 |
| SIR_Taco | rufsketch1: ignore the moving part, and follow the 'setup parition' parts, and the 'fstab setup' parts | 02:25 |
| rufsketch1 | SIR_Taco: are the resulting home directories ready to work with KDE? | 02:26 |
| rufsketch1 | I don't see anything about changing the config files | 02:26 |
| rufsketch1 | or, creating them rather | 02:27 |
| SIR_Taco | rufsketch1: the new home directories will be the same as if you were to create a new user. Any config files will be generated as needed | 02:27 |
| rufsketch1 | okay, trying it out | 02:28 |
| rufsketch1 | will let you know in a bit | 02:28 |
| rufsketch1 | thanks | 02:28 |
| mr-rich | Pulse audio is a pain ... | 03:22 |
| SIR_Taco | mr-rich: so are speed limit signs | 03:24 |
| mr-rich | If I route my tvcard (and antique bt878) through asound and then aplay, I can get sound ... otherwise, no sound ... alsamixer doesn't even list my line in or my CD ports on the MB ... strange ... | 03:25 |
| mr-rich | SIR_Taco: I can disreguard a speed limit sign with my foot ... pulse audio is like running into a wall ... | 03:26 |
| SIR_Taco | mr-rich: when you go into alsamixer.... have you tried using F6 (to change cards/channels)? | 03:31 |
| mr-rich | SIR_Taco: Yes ... I can select the bt878 and it's capture volume is up ... | 03:33 |
| SIR_Taco | have you followed this? http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Snd-bt87x_%28alsa_bt878_driver%29 | 03:35 |
| mr-rich | SIR_Taco: I get picture ... no sound | 03:36 |
| SIR_Taco | mr-rich: ok... but I had a card with that sound chipset on it... and step #4 on the link I provided fixed the problem (that was a few years ago now, but it's worth a shot) | 03:37 |
| mr-rich | The instructions are for 8.04 ... IIRC, 8.04 didn't have Pulse ... | 03:38 |
| SIR_Taco | mr-rich: yes, you're right... but the instructions are for drivers | 03:38 |
| mr-rich | ok ... worth a shot ... | 03:39 |
| SIR_Taco | I have one of those cards floating around here somewhere... just not sure where | 03:40 |

| Andy | help | 09:13 |
| Andy | hello | 09:13 |
| spexi | Hi! I'm installing Kubuntu 12.04 LTS, and I would like to choose sizes for /home etc manually, so manual partitioning. Anyway, the installation warns me something about EFI BOOT PARTITION, that I don't have. Should I have and how much space should I reserve to it? | 09:14 |
| spexi | I have never faced the efi boot thing | 09:14 |
| tsimpson | spexi: I'd say to have a look at what the guided partitioning scheme looks like, then go back and do manual partitioning and use it as a template | 09:16 |
| spexi | Well, I was thinking of that, but if I select automatical partitioning, there's only button "install now" | 09:17 |
| spexi | Which makes me think, I can't see the template and it just starts the install | 09:17 |
| tsimpson | I haven't actually go through a recent GUI install, maybe that changed recently | 09:17 |
| Deutopia | yes it just starts unless you choose "something else" | 09:20 |
| tsimpson | well, I wouldn't imagine you'd need more than 100MB for an EFI boot partition anyway | 09:20 |
| tsimpson | and if it's giving you a big warning, it's probably safer to do what it's suggesting | 09:21 |
| spexi | okay | 09:21 |
| spexi | have to try | 09:21 |
| spexi | Well, solved: I'm booting on usb stick. So, on boot menu, I didn't choose option #1, which was UEFI: Kingston DataTraveler, I choosed #4 which was just Kingston DataTraveler | 09:27 |

| yoga` | I have problem connect to wifi in Kubuntu, but I get no problem in Window 7 using the same laptop. | 10:25 |
| yoga` | I am using Kubuntu 12.04. | 10:27 |
| ArchangelSe7en | which wireless card model yoga` ? | 10:28 |
| yoga` | ArchangelSe7en: my laptop is Acer 4736z. | 10:30 |
| ArchangelSe7en | yoga`, open your terminal and type lspci | 10:30 |
| yoga` | ArchangelSe7en: I am not in Kubuntu, so I cannot type lspci there. | 10:31 |
| yoga` | Which wifi client one would use in Kubuntu? | 10:32 |
| ArchangelSe7en | yoga`, knetworkmanger works fine for me , but it's usually suggested to try WICD | 10:35 |
| yoga` | ArchangelSe7en: I think I was using WICD, it get so many protocal(don't know the exact term) to choose to setup the password etc. And when I try to connect, it always said wrong password, even I use the correct one. | 10:38 |
| yoga` | ArchangelSe7en: I'll try knetworkmanger. | 10:38 |
| ArchangelSe7en | that's provided by default in Kubuntu yofel | 10:39 |
| yoga` | I OSX, I don't need to choose different setting in WICD. | 10:39 |
| ArchangelSe7en | yoga`, even | 10:39 |
| yoga` | ArchangelSe7en: On OSX, it just work, same as in Windows. | 10:40 |
| ArchangelSe7en | I see | 10:41 |
| yoga` | I'll go try knetworkmanager, and see if it work. | 10:41 |
| yoga` | ArchangelSe7en: So knetworkmanager is also in Kubuntu 12.04? | 10:43 |
| ArchangelSe7en | it should yoga` , because like I said it's provided by default | 10:44 |
| yoga` | ok thank. | 10:44 |
| ArchangelSe7en | it's KDE's default networ manager | 10:44 |
| ArchangelSe7en | ymw | 10:44 |
| yoga` | I manage to connect to wifi in my Kubuntu 12.04, the hard way! | 11:40 |
| yoga` | I tried using wsid, but failed. | 11:41 |
| yoga` | Then I find this nm-applet, and give it a try. | 11:41 |
| yoga` | Then it works, I can connect with wifi using nm-applet, it just ask me the key. | 11:42 |
| yoga` | I don't know how set up wsid to make it connect though. | 11:43 |
| yoga` | I wonder how to make nm-applet to auto load when Kubuntu boot up? | 11:44 |

| cmagina | kwallet seems broken in quantal, anyone else unable to open the wallet? i enter the password and nothing happens. no errors, nada. just checked xsession-errors and there wasn't anything in there either | 14:28 |
| BluesKaj | cmagina, did you try opening it with krunner , alt+f2 ? | 14:32 |
| cmagina | BluesKaj: just tried to open it from the commandline and this is what I see: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1214893/ | 14:32 |
| cmagina | which i also saw in the xsession-errors log, but didn't associate with kwallet | 14:33 |
| cmagina | killed the kwalletd daemon, see a new one fire up, but still the same issue | 14:33 |
| BluesKaj | cmagina, ok try walletmanager in krunner | 14:34 |
| cmagina | BluesKaj: odd, that worked | 14:35 |
| cmagina | so, when an application requests access, it fails. when running kwalletmanager through systemsettings, it fails, running it through the commandline, it fails, but when running it from krunner, it works | 14:35 |
| BluesKaj | well cmagina , i don't use kwallet , but in order to turn it off , that's the quickest method | 14:36 |
| BluesKaj | to get the giu | 14:37 |
| cmagina | ok, i'll try and submit a bug for it then | 14:37 |
| BluesKaj | err gui | 14:38 |
| cmagina | BluesKaj: thanks, opening it that way at least got e-mail working | 14:40 |
| BluesKaj | cmagina, I never liked the kwallet system , but then I don't really need it since I'm a home user ...suppose it's necessary on the job | 14:42 |
| cmagina | i use it as the applications seem to make use of it. | 14:43 |
