[09:59] <Space-Duck> I have a ln -s in /var/www that points to /home/user/www I running a PHP script that attempts to make directories and create files within /home/user/www/blah/ The script is unable to create the files due to file permissions. How can I correct this? Do I need to add "user" to the "www-data" group or something?
[10:56] <tsimpson> Space-Duck: you need to give www-data permission under /home/user/www, like making /home/user/www user:www-data rwxrwxr-x
[11:00] <Space-Duck> tsimpson how do you do that?
[11:02] <tsimpson> like "sudo chown $USER:www-data ~/www" followed by "sudo chmod g=rwx ~/www"
[13:44] <kanliot> anyone need help?
[13:44] <Sidewinder> !details | kanliot
[13:44] <ubot2> kanliot: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..."
[13:45] <smartboyhw> Sidewinder, I think he means that is there anybody who needed help, which = no now
[13:49] <kanliot> i could use some reading material about LXDE and file associations.  i've googled it, but all i got was bad stuff
[14:38] <cobramd> can anyone help with a wireless issue?
[14:42] <kanliot> cobramd, can i point to to the forum, post on beginners or on the networking forum
[14:45] <cobramd> ok
[14:50] <cobramd> isn't this the beginners forum?
[14:50] <smartboyhw> cobramd, this is the beginners IRC channel LOL
[14:55] <kanliot> ubuntuforums.org
[14:55] <kanliot> only becasue I KNOW there's people on there who can help you with wireless probs
[15:08] <holstein> cobramd: you could share more information about wireless.. usually i just link the broadcom wiki page ;)
[15:08] <holstein> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[15:10] <cobramd> this issue is confusing me.  when i didn't install the driver, the wireless option was in the drop down.  I installed the driver and then it dissappeared on me
[15:13] <escott> cobramd, "the drop down" what is "the drop down"
[15:14] <kanliot> additional drivers?
[15:15] <holstein> cobramd: you can run lspci in a terminal and paste that...

[15:15] <cobramd> upper corner where it shows the network connection.  If I click on it, it drops down and gives me options.  Wireless was there at one point, now just wired connection, edit connection, etc...
[15:15] <holstein> cobramd: maybe you disabled it via the keyboard or hardware switch
[15:19] <cobramd> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1264008/
[15:19] <cobramd> guess I did that right.  Haven't used IRC in a while
[15:20] <cobramd> checked the keyboard switch, doesn't seem to have any effect.
[15:20] <holstein> 03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01)
[15:21] <holstein> cobramd: that link i linked above is what i would reference
[15:22] <holstein> sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter firmware-b43-installer
[15:22] <holstein> ^^ that usually works for me... sometimes with a reboot
[15:22] <cobramd> i'll try it.  thanks for the help on this.  pretty new to ubuntu
[15:23] <cobramd> looks like it installed.  I'll try the reboot to see if it worked.  Thanks again
