[20:57] <kinja-sheep> tcliam: Launchpad -- If it does not exist, well... Be patient.  Or compile it yourself.
[20:57] <rapha> kinja-sheep: that's cups' own thing and not the GUI you find under System->Settings->Printing -- i'm asking because I want it for a non-Ubuntu system
[20:57] <AndreMorro[BR]> agliodbs, Gotcha...
[20:58] <vAd0r> any ideas
[20:58] <AndreMorro[BR]> agliodbs, let me do a small search
[20:58] <mka> gabriel_, 'sudo mount -a' will NOT do the trick IMO
[20:58] <agliodbs> AndreMorro[BR]: is there a version for that Ubuntu?  I couldn't find one
[20:58] <gabriel_> mka: i just did a mount all, and it worked :)
[20:58] <tcliam> ok thanks
[20:58] <agliodbs> AndreMorro[BR]: the unofficial repos are hard to search
[20:58] <mka> gabriel_, ok
[20:58] <gabriel_> mka: thanks a lot for your help! :)
[20:58] <agliodbs> AndreMorro[BR]: especially since it's 8.04 for Intel Atom
[20:58] <kinja-sheep> rapha: That is Web-Based GUI. I think it is system-config-printer-gnome (since it said Printer configuration GUI)
[20:58] <vAd0r> AndreMorro: any ideas
[20:58] <mka> gabriel_, then it was the 'users' entry that was the problem
[20:58] <gabriel_> mka: so that "users" option was the bandit huh...
[20:58] <thomas0815> can someone help me with my wireless connection? it used to work fine (and still works fine if i boot from cd) but doesnot connect anymore (ubuntu 9.10)
[20:59] <gabriel_> mka: what does it do? :P
[20:59] <|sysop|> I installed a package from source how to I keep apt from installing the deb version when I try to install related programs?
[20:59] <AndreMorro[BR]> !8.04
[20:59] <mka> gabriel_, hehee, why did you use it if you dont know what it does? it allows ordinary users to mount that partition without the need of root priviledges
[21:00] <gabriel_> mka: aj då... owner root på alla filer :(
[21:00] <mka> gabriel_, that is usually used in CD/DVD drives
[21:00] <RocketLauncher> In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again?
[21:00] <rapha> kinja-sheep: that might be it; thx!
[21:00] <mka> gabriel_, come again? is that english or xhosa?
[21:00] <AndreMorro[BR]> agliodbs, make sure Backports repositories are available at Synpatics, it should be the usb-creator available to install at 8.04
[21:00] <kinja-sheep> rapha: Np.
[21:01] <kinja-sheep> agliodbs: In the nutshell, what are you trying to do?
[21:01] <gabriel_> mka: sorry, my swedish jumped out :D
[21:01] <mka> gabriel_, whats the problem now?
[21:01] <AndreMorro[BR]> agliodbs, hey, check that out http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/u/usb-creator/usb-creator_0.1.10~hardy1_all.deb download and install... create the USB and BeHappy
[21:02] <gabriel_> mka: well maybe no problem... should permissions be set to "root" for everything?
[21:02] <pat|nG>  i have downloaded a screenlet apps in a .tar where can i find my previous screenlet folder coz it states that i have to delete my previous screenlet and extract there?
[21:02] <gabriel_> mka: i mean on that partition
[21:02] <mka> gabriel_, you can set them to you
[21:02] <agliodbs> AndreMorro[BR]: ok, that's my next trial
[21:02] <gabriel_> mka: in fstab.. how?
[21:03] <azerty3> h i there
[21:03] <Dreakon> Hiya!  I tried Ubuntu a week or two ago (recently switched back to Windows 7 however) and I'm curious if the UI of Ubuntu is supposed to work kind of sluggishly compared to Windows, or if my laptop just can't handle it very well.
[21:03] <agliodbs> AndreMorro[BR]: one other thing making this challenging is that the current hardy install is crashing after 1 hour of use ...
[21:03] <azerty3> how to create a symbolic lync ?
[21:03] <RocketLauncher> In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again?
[21:03] <gabriel_> mka: don't i need to mount it as owner=user or something?
[21:03] <vAd0r> I have a dell e6500 with dell E dock.  I have the latest version of ubuntu installed.  I dock the laptop and turn it on.  It goes to the grub loader then i chose ubuntu then i get nothing.
[21:03] <guntbert> azerty3: ln -s <source> <dest>
[21:03] <mka> gabriel_, in that line with 'defaults' replace 'defaults' with 'defaults,uid=1000,gid=1000'
[21:03] <azerty3> thx guntbert
[21:04] <guntbert> azerty3: you're welcome :-)
[21:04] <AndreMorro[BR]> agliodbs, Awsome... so you have 30 minutos to make everything LOL
[21:04] <azerty3> how to undo a symbolic lync now ?
[21:04] <mka> gabriel_, yes you need to do just that
[21:04] <Dreakon> Anyone? :)
[21:04] <AndreMorro[BR]> azerty3, delete it
[21:04] <guntbert> azerty3: rm <link>
[21:04] <mka> gabriel_, but owner is called 'uid' if you know what i mean
[21:04] <gabriel_> mka: yes user id
[21:04] <jolaren> Is a graphical card required for ubuntu server? I have one in but I think it's semi broken because it gives stripes over the screen
[21:04] <mka> gabriel_, i assume your uid is 1000
[21:04] <dogg> man so much going on where do i get a number for someone to tell me whats up with this bcm43xx driver jazz
[21:04] <azerty3> can we remove a lync  i never heard b4 ?
[21:04] <agliodbs> AndreMorro[BR]: yeah, memtest is going to be part of this
[21:05] <gabriel_> mka: yeah prolly. i'm the only user :)
[21:05] <mka> gabriel_, you can confirm it by typing 'id'
[21:05] <gabriel_> mka: yep
[21:05] <AndreMorro[BR]> jolaren, not really... but you'll need one to boot the computer, and also to install the distro
[21:05] <RocketLauncher> In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again?
[21:05] <gabriel_> mka: but what about the root filesystem? should it be mounted with defaults only?
[21:06] <jolaren> AndreMorro[BR]; Okay, thanks. I can see the text.. i don't know if its broken but it's stripes .. still readable
[21:06] <Leoneof> hi
[21:06] <mka> gabriel_, then that line will be 'UUID=5260364860363359 /media/bigmomma ntfs-3g defaults,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0'
[21:06] <Dreakon> Is the Ubuntu GUI designed to run a bit sluggishly compared to Windows, or is that a sign my laptop can't handle it very well?
[21:06] <mka> gabriel_, what root filesystem?
[21:06] <ikonia> Dreakon: the most common problem with that is using an incorrect video card configuration
[21:06] <mka> gabriel_, are we still talking about NTFS here?
[21:06] <guntbert> !details | dogg
[21:06] <AndreMorro[BR]> Dreakon, the GUI is designed to be AWSOME, but sometimes the Fonts Definitions are not quite as expected
[21:06] <gabriel_> mka: i mean the os partition
[21:07] <RocketLauncher> In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again?
[21:07] <mediaprodigy> UbuntuStudio takes a long time to download / install.. i did not believe it but wow
[21:07] <AndreMorro[BR]> mediaprodigy, pretty awsome an?
[21:07] <gabriel_> mka: with mount point /
[21:07] <Dreakon> ikonia: How would one find the correct video card configuration for my Intel GMA 4500HD chipset?
[21:07] <w3l54666> i need some help guys
[21:07] <mka> gabriel_, that is not NTFS thats probably ext3/4 which does not have the uid=??? option
[21:07] <agliodbs> AndreMorro[BR]: ok, that's not going to work
[21:07] <Leoneof> hi, i  did share ppp0 (internet connection) to eth0 (internal network), so when i disconnect eth0, the ppp0 will disconnect too, why?
[21:07] <AndreMorro[BR]> agliodbs, why is that?
[21:07] <agliodbs> old ubuntu is crashing too fast
[21:07] <ikonia> Dreakon: is this your first step into linux ?
[21:07] <zleap> i think its ctrl-shift v on my system,m it is for the console anyway
[21:07] <mka> gabriel_, that one is fine as it is
[21:07] <gabriel_> mka: yes it's ext4.
[21:07] <annex> so um...
[21:07] <agliodbs> is there any way to make this work via DD?
[21:07] <gabriel_> mka: ok thanks :)
[21:07] <Dreakon> ikonia: Yes :)
[21:07] <w3l54666> when i plug my usb wifi card in it says disconected
[21:08] <AndreMorro[BR]> Leonard, the Connectino need your ethernet boad (eth0) to connect... withou eth0 theres no ppp0
[21:08] <mediaprodigy> AndreMorro[BR]: its cool.. nowhere near finished.. installign
[21:08] <w3l54666> i used the correct drivers for it and so on
[21:08] <ikonia> Dreakon: ok, let me think how to explain this to you, intel is good, it's normally detected and configured fine but it certainly doesn't hurt to check
[21:08] <w3l54666> i just dont know what to do
[21:08] <mka> gabriel_, and it would be dangerous you try to change the ownership and permissions at that level
[21:08] <vAd0r> ok now i get grup then i get the circle logo. then monitor goes away
[21:08] <Leoneof> AndreMorro[BR]:  ppp0 is for wlan0
[21:08] <vAd0r> do i need to install monitor drivers or something?
[21:08] <annex> I tried to install 9.04 on my laptop to dual boot with Win 7... it failed, and now my DVD drive won't open :S
[21:08] <gabriel_> mka: can i do umount -a?
[21:08] <rick_langerak> hay
[21:09] <RocketLauncher> In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again?
[21:09] <mka> gabriel_, did you change something ?
[21:09] <rick_langerak> i have got a problem with emesene
[21:09] <gabriel_> mka: yes. the uid stuff for two drives
[21:09] <AndreMorro[BR]> Leoneof, so I have no idea...
[21:09] <gabriel_> mka: partitions
[21:09] <ikonia> Dreakon: ok, lets give this a try are you ready ?
[21:09] <agliodbs> feh, Dell BIOS does not include memtest
[21:09] <rick_langerak> if i send a messege there comes : messege failures
[21:10] <mka> gabriel_, mount -a will not work, you may need to umount each and remount it again or else use the 'remount' option to mount
[21:10] <gabriel_> mka: i tried to just mount -a again, but it didn't change the ownership
[21:10] <dogg> guntbert, i was following this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx and in the end it just isnt working.. though http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#Known_PCI_devices says it should be support to some exstent. see 14e4:4315
[21:10] <AndreMorro[BR]> agliodbs, no... but if you could make the bootable-usb it would exist
[21:10] <Dreakon> ikonia: Unfortunately I'm not on Ubuntu at the moment, I've since returned to Windows.
[21:10] <dogg>
[21:10] <mka> gabriel_, try this
[21:10] <shane2peru> scalpel or foremost?  which is better at recovering data from an image?
[21:10] <agliodbs> AndreMorro[BR]: catch-22?
[21:10] <ikonia> Dreakon: doyou want to give me a nudge when you treutn to ubuntu ?
[21:10] <AndreMorro[BR]> agliodbs, catch what?
[21:10] <ikonia> Dreakon: sorry, return to linux
[21:10] <mka> gabriel_, 'sudo umount /media/bigmomma  && sudo mount -a"
[21:10] <Leoneof> AndreMorro[BR]:  :(
[21:11] <Dreakon> ikonia: It's not installed at the moment. :P I am asking moreso out of curiousity.
[21:11] <rick_langerak> @all : he XD i ve still got a problem
[21:11] <annex> :\
[21:11] <ikonia> Dreakon: ahh, well, no, the gui is normally very fast if the video card is support and correctly configured
[21:11] <dogg> guntbert, sorry i didnt know if i was sposed to start just going off about my issue..
[21:12] <Dreakon> ikonia: Hmm... I see.  I was told there are no better drivers for Intel cards than the defaults.
[21:12] <gabriel_> mka: it remounted, but nautilus still says owner is root :(
[21:12] <guntbert> dogg: sorry I know nothing about that card - but everyone who wants to help needs more than your first statement to start - please ask the channel again - yes you put your questions to the channel without any further permissions :)
[21:12] <ikonia> Dreakon: you where told wrong, there are multiple options, it normally chooses the right option, but sometimes it does get it wrong, it's not perfect
[21:12] <mediaprodigy> Can anyone recommend a good jungledisk type service?
[21:13] <ikonia> mediaprodigy: try in #ubuntu-offtopic or a freenode offtopic channel
[21:13] <Lord-Readman> hello, where can i find a maintainer?
[21:13] <mka> gabriel_, paste HERE the output of 'grep -i bigmomma /etc/fstab'
[21:13] <ikonia> Lord-Readman: for what ?
[21:13] <Dreakon> ikonia: I see.. is there anywhere I can go to see these other options?
[21:13] <dogg> i was following this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx and in the end it just isnt working.. though http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#Known_PCI_devices says it should be support to some exstent. see 14e4:4315
[21:13] <ikonia> Dreakon: it's hard to explain without you being on linux
[21:13] <mediaprodigy> iknoia: cool.. thanks
[21:13] <mediaprodigy> ikonia: cool.. thanks
[21:13] <gabriel_> mka: http://pastebin.com/m6043f2a4
[21:13] <mka> Lord-Readman, what maintainer?
[21:13] <Lord-Readman> xz-utils, i have just been speaking with the dev, and he says that the ubuntu version is too old and not safe for my data and i should upgrade
[21:14] <josheee12> has anybody seen error 22 when install grub from live usb?
[21:14] <Lord-Readman> so wanted to make a request to the ubuntu maintainer, ikonia
[21:14] <ikonia> Lord-Readman: look on launchpad.net for the package, then use the contact / maintainer options
[21:14] <Dreakon> ikonia: I see :-/  Unfortunately between the slow running of the GUI, the fact it made my laptop uncomfortably hot and my need for a few windows programs with no workarounds, I've gone back to Windows.  I really liked Ubuntu though.
[21:14] <annex> it's cool... I'll just be over here... not being able to do work for linux class...
[21:15] <ikonia> Dreakon: no problem
[21:15] <Dreakon> ikonia: If there's options that could fix one or two of those problems, I'm tempted to try again lol.
[21:15] <ikonia> annex: the most common reason for your drive not opening is a mounted cd
[21:15] <ikonia> Dreakon: well, I can try to resolve your video card issues, but not without it being installed
[21:15] <Lord-Readman> ikonia, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+package/xz-utils but i cannot see a contain maintainer option
[21:15] <maxfiles> if ubuntu is running at level 2 then why wont it load services that are told to load??
[21:16] <ikonia> maxfiles: such as ?
[21:16] <rick_langerak> @ikona answere : maybe a driver re install?
[21:16] <gabriel_> mka: UUID=5260364860363359 /media/bigmomma ntfs-3g defaults,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0
[21:16] <ikonia> rick_langerak: ?
[21:16] <Dreakon> ikonia: Is there perhaps a website with similar instructions I can look at...?  I know enough to understand what it would have me do.
[21:16] <maxfiles> apache, webmin, pureftp, hddtemp, and many others, over 20 services wont start
[21:16] <mka> gabriel_, run and pastebin the output of 'sudo umount /media/* 2> /dev/null && sudo mount -a && pwd && sudo mount -a'
[21:16] <ikonia> Dreakon: you can look at x.org to see how it's put together
[21:16] <RocketLauncher> In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again?
[21:16] <ikonia> maxfiles: webmin is not an ubuntu package
[21:16] <mka> gabriel_, sorry
[21:16] <rick_langerak> @ ikonia  iknow but still it was a option
[21:17] <vAd0r> i see this alot for WW:   Unknown vendor-specific block 0
[21:17] <ikonia> maxfiles: try starting one manually
[21:17] <maxfiles> yes ikona I know that, but the others are
[21:17] <vAd0r> in my log
[21:17] <mka> gabriel_, run and pastebin the output of 'sudo umount /media/* 2> /dev/null && sudo mount -a && pwd'
[21:17] <ikonia> rick_langerak: an option for what, not sure what you're talking about
[21:17] <kcj1993> I can't change the number of workspaces when compiz is on, I only have 2. why is it doing this?
[21:17] <maxfiles> ikona I can start them manually
[21:17] <ikonia> maxfiles: what happens when you run the init script manually
[21:17] <dogg> i was following this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx and in the end it just isnt working.. though http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#Known_PCI_devices says it should be support to some exstent. see 14e4:4315
[21:17] <maxfiles> ikona I can start them manually but next reboot they wont load up
[21:17] <ikonia> maxfiles: are you starting them as a command, or using the init script
[21:17] <mka> gabriel_, sorry again :(
[21:17] <mka> gabriel_, run and pastebin the output of 'sudo umount /media/* 2> /dev/null && sudo mount -a && pwd && ls -lh /media'
[21:18] <maxfiles> sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start
[21:18] <l_r> hello
[21:18] <jellow> !hi | l_r
[21:18] <gabriel_> mka: there is no output
[21:18] <maxfiles> ikonia I did over 100 updates the other day and did a reboot and now my services wont start
[21:18] <Dreakon> ikonia: Were you going to suggest I download xf86-video-intel 2.9.1 and see if it works better than the defaults?
[21:18] <obaid> how i can add man pages manually ?
[21:19] <mka> gabriel_, ok do one command at a time
[21:19] <maxfiles> ikonia I can not even get cron jobs to run
[21:19] <dogg> guntbert how did you dot hat lols
[21:19] <mka> gabriel_, sudo umount /media/*
[21:19] <dogg> that
[21:19] <l_r> how can i create a virtual audio input device for the audio going out from my sound card. i am using pulseaudio
[21:19] <ikonia> Dreakon: no, I wasn't going to suggest that at all
[21:19] <mka> gabriel_, and then, "sudo mount -a"
[21:19] <Dreakon> ikonia: Alrighty, then im more confused than I let on. :P
[21:19] <mka> gabriel_, finally pastebin "ls -lh /media"
[21:19] <guntbert> dogg: how did I do *what* ?
[21:20] <Dreakon> ikonia: But I understand it's probably to complicated to get into. ;)  Thanks for the help!
[21:20] <ikonia> maxfiles: if you're downloaded a ton of updates and now cron isn't working either, than I'd suggest there is more at fault here than init
[21:20] <ikonia> maxfiles: check your repos make sure you don't have any backport or testing repo's enabled
[21:20] <gabriel_> mka: http://pastebin.com/m252caa93
[21:21] <daguz> any netboot people here?  I'm trying to get ubuntu to install over http (not nfs)
[21:21] <mka> gabriel_, its done
[21:21] <maxfiles> ikonia: software sources?
[21:21] <ikonia> maxfiles: yes
[21:21] <dogg> guntbert: nvm im just seing things
[21:21] <mka> gabriel_, what more do you want
[21:21] <dogg> i was following this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx and in the end it just isnt working.. though http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#Known_PCI_devices says it should be support to some exstent. see 14e4:4315
[21:21] <guntbert> dogg: :)
[21:21] <gabriel_> mka: oh.. i thought owner would not be root?
[21:21] <mka> gabriel_, yes its not the root
[21:21] <gabriel_> mka: oh
[21:21] <gabriel_> mka: so nautilus is lying to me...
[21:21] <maxfiles> ikonia: I have main, universe, restricted and multiverse turned on
[21:21] <mka> gabriel_, what is confusing you?
[21:22] <crystalblue> i was thinking about putting xubuntu on my imac G5, any of you guys know if the OS runs well on ppc
[21:22] <ikonia> maxfiles: that all seems solid
[21:22] <ikonia> crystalblue: ppc pretty dead now and on community support only
[21:22] <dogg> guntbert: i guess when you putt there name in a message like so it highlights there name? so they can see your talking to them
[21:22] <Grumman> i am not very experienced with linux and am trying to install bugzilla to ubuntu 9.10 desktop inside a sun virtualbox (virtual machine)... need some help with some of the more technical linux-specific parts of Bugzilla's installation instructions... can someone help me?
[21:22] <maxfiles> ikonia, updates are security and updates enabled, else disabled
[21:22] <mka> gabriel_, you may need to refresh nautilus anyway you cannot rely  on nautilus for every little detail, you have terminal
[21:23] <crystalblue> my graphics card is semi broke in it, and I just want it for an internet device.
[21:23] <gabriel_> mka: well just that nautilus is SAYING the owner is root for those partitions, but i can still actually create folders and files...
[21:23] <ikonia> maxfiles: again sensible, no problems
[21:23] <crystalblue> but OSX tiger sucks for it
[21:23] <gabriel_> mka: yeah, it has probably saved the state from before
[21:23] <ikonia> maxfiles: can you do an ubuntu-rc.d start apache2 2 please
[21:23] <ikonia> maxfiles: (with sudo of course)
[21:23] <daguz> Grumman: what step are you stuck on?
[21:23] <crystalblue> like is the ubuntu support totally dead?
[21:23] <kamil> Hello :P
[21:24] <ikonia> crystalblue: it's community (best effort) support now, canonical dropped it
[21:24] <Grumman> well, I think i successfully installed perl, mysql, and apache
[21:24] <agliodbs> ok, I tried the USBcreator, and I'm still getting "pen drive without operating system"
[21:24] <gabriel_> mka: ah. a reload click in nautilus did the trick. closing it and starting it didn't reload it's state :)
[21:24] <maxfiles> ikonia is says ubuntu-rc.d command not found
[21:24] <mka> gabriel_, remember another thing your fstab entries does not set permissions it only sets ownership
[21:24] <Grumman> now installing bugzilla itself... http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/3.4/en/html/installation.html#install-bzfiles
[21:24] <agliodbs> is this a matter for Dell support?
[21:24] <ikonia> maxfiles: sorry update-rc.d
[21:24] <ikonia> maxfiles: typo
[21:24] <rick_langerak> @somewone here : if you have problems with Emesene does i must go to demain server or ubuntu?
[21:24] <crystalblue> ok thanks.
[21:25] <maxfiles> ikonia it says update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/start: file does not exist
[21:25] <crystalblue> I do kind of find it ironic though when people say, "its community"
[21:25] <crystalblue> isn't linux all community
[21:25] <Grumman> i just don't know what it means to place it in a directory where web server user can access it
[21:25] <mka> gabriel_, the default permissions for mount of NTFS partitions is 0777 which means that anyone can do anything regardless of who is the owner
[21:25] <Grumman> i don't know what the web server user is
[21:25] <dogg> i was following this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx and in the end it just isnt working.. though http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#Known_PCI_devices says it should be support to some exstent. see 14e4:4315
[21:25] <crystalblue> otherwise we wind up becoming another corporation
[21:26] <gabriel_> mka: aha.. what about an ext3/4 partition?
[21:26] <crystalblue> peace
[21:26] <daguz> Grumman: you need to make sure apache is running, then look at /etc/apache files...
[21:26] <mka> gabriel_, that is completely different for ext2/3/4
[21:26] <teg> hi there. how use  CFLAGS for optimization compilation programm?
[21:26] <Grumman> apache is running, i can go to http://localhost
[21:26] <gabriel_> mka: i see
[21:26] <prayii> crystalblue: i believe thats how most companies who maintain a distro make any money (support)
[21:27] <Grumman> i am in /etc/apache2
[21:27] <mka> gabriel_, remember that FAT32 and NTFS don't really support these ownership and permissions
[21:27] <Grumman> daguz may i pm you, it's crowded in here
[21:27] <daguz> Grumann: I've not got the time to help with every detail (today).  You can.
[21:27] <gabriel_> mka: anyway, thanks for all your help! Now i can probably use linuxDC++ with the partition as a download drive...
[21:27] <mka> gabriel_, no prob
[21:27] <gabriel_> mka: oh, so that's why they set it to 0777... i see :)
[21:28] <mka> gabriel_, its the default
[21:28] <gabriel_> mka yeah
[21:28] <maxfiles> ikonia it says update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/start: file does not exist
[21:28] <gabriel_> mka: i have just installed ubuntu 64 bit, so that's why i need to setup EVERTHING again, haha... phew :D
[21:29] <maxfiles> ikonia the file apache2 is in that dir
[21:29] <ikonia> maxfiles: just a moment please
[21:29] <maxfiles> ikonia ok
[21:29] <mka> gabriel_, you can add another option in fstab like '....,gid=1000,umask=0022'
[21:29] <dogg> i was following this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx and in the end it just isnt working.. though http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#Known_PCI_devices says it should be support to some exstent. see 14e4:4315
[21:29] <ikonia> maxfiles: uupdate-rc.d apache2 start 2
[21:29] <gabriel_> mka: however, this time i have a 24" screen, and i just discoved that my core 2 duo machine lags when trying to play HD material full screen with the current config for player and codecs and such... do you play HD material?
[21:30] <ikonia> maxfiles: update-rc.d sorry
[21:30] <gabriel_> mka: i vaguely remember the umask option... what did it do?
[21:30] <teg> need HELP !  how use CFLAGS for optimization compilation src?
[21:30] <teg>
[21:31] <ikonia> teg: if you have to ask - don't to it, you won't get an performance boost and it's dangerous
[21:31] <mka> gabriel_, a umask removes the permissions you do not want to grant
[21:31] <VirusTB> whats the difference between an CD that says x86 and one that says x64 ??
[21:31] <maxfiles> ikonia typed sudo update-rc.d start apache2 start 2 and that does not work
[21:31] <VirusTB> how do I tell which Ubuntu I need?
[21:31] <ikonia> maxfiles: what does it say
[21:31] <mka> gabriel_, for example 0027 is equivalent to a permission of rwxr-x---
[21:31] <RocketLauncher> In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again?
[21:32] <jrib> VirusTB: 32bit and 64bit
[21:32] <maxfiles> ikonia with start in the different position is brings up the help text
[21:32] <obaid> maxfiles, http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-manage-services-with-update-rc.d
[21:32] <mka> gabriel_, i have no experience about HD stuff
[21:32] <ScoobyDoo> Is It possible to change the icon of a executable file permanently?
[21:32] <maxfiles> I'm about to reinstall from scratch
[21:32] <gabriel_> mka: it's like a reversed settings of permisson.. whatever that command was, can't remember now, lol
[21:32] <azerty3> i got this file install_a2b_sounds_deb.sh   http://paste.ubuntu.com/363474/, can anyone explain why when i run that command it gives that error ?
[21:32] <genii> VirusTB: If the 64bit CD boots in your system, you have a 64bit CPU
[21:33] <mka> gabriel_, its umask option of fstab
[21:33] <VirusTB> jrib,  which one is wich? i though it had something to do with Intel and AMD :S
[21:33] <azerty3> http://paste.ubuntu.com/363477/
[21:33] <azerty3> i got this file install_a2b_sounds_deb.sh   http://paste.ubuntu.com/363474/, can anyone explain why when i run that command it gives that error ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/363477/
[21:33] <jrib> VirusTB: i386 is 32bit
[21:33] <DopeGhoti> Hello,  Is there a way to assign a Compose key that's active outside of an X session (to wit, on the console itself)?
[21:33] <ScoobyDoo> Is It possible to change the icon of a executable file permanently?
[21:33] <mka> gabriel_, yes you are right, the permissions are reversed with umask
[21:34] <qetuR> hey! im trying to learn some bash
[21:34] <qetuR> lets say when the program wants me to prompt some stuff
[21:34] <VirusTB> jrib,  i386 is intel right... this  x86  is  a CD for intell computers?
[21:34] <qetuR> what command should i use?
[21:34] <teg> ikonia:  maybe you have links with CFLAGS in ubuntu? i dont undestand your message. i'm rus with bad english
[21:34] <mka> qetuR, use echo
[21:34] <DopeGhoti> !enter | qetuR
[21:34] <jrib> VirusTB: why don't we take a different approach: what cpu do *you* have?
[21:34] <ScoobyDoo> Is It possible to change the icon of a executable file permanently?
[21:34] <Blue112> Hello here. What can cause ubuntu stop mounting the /home partition in one night without any major changes to the system ?
[21:35] <ikonia> teg: "don't use optimizations"
[21:35] <VirusTB> jrib,  so what what "big difference between x86 and x64 ?
[21:35] <DopeGhoti> Blue112: is the /home partition set auto in fstab?
[21:35] <jrib> VirusTB: I told you already
[21:35] <qetuR> Im trying to learn some bash, lets say a program want me to prompt some stuff, what command should i use?
[21:35] <jrib> VirusTB: 32bit and 64bit
[21:35] <qetuR> mka: i tried echo
[21:35] <mka> qetuR, like: echo "blah"
[21:35] <qetuR> but it doenst do anything after my first command
[21:35] <gabriel_> mka: thanks again :)
[21:35] <mka> qetuR, and then: read varName
[21:35] <ScoobyDoo> qeruR If you want a popup to say some stuff use zenity, or zenity --help for instructions
[21:35] <DopeGhoti> qetuR: to read input intp a variable, try 'read'
[21:35] <teg> ikonia: i needed optimization programm for insitute
[21:35] <obaid> i have installed a program using make install, i want to remove it now, now do i remove it ?
[21:35] <reine> bash --help
[21:36] <endri> i accidentally have manually removed some files and now i can not reinstall emacs anymore
[21:36] <agliodbs> so, I have a Dell Mini 10
[21:36] <ikonia> teg: I doubt you do need optimisations
[21:36] <DopeGhoti> obaid: with 'rm', unfortunately
[21:36] <endri> what should i do?
[21:36] <teg> ikonia: can you help me. a little
[21:36] <ScoobyDoo> I'msuchAnIdoit --help
[21:36] <ScoobyDoo> Is It possible to change the icon of a executable file permanently?
[21:36] <maxfiles> ok I read that link to update-rc.d and it does me no good
[21:36] <agliodbs> I've been trying to install UNR 9.10 by booting from a usb pen drive
[21:36] <jrib> obaid: sometimes there is an "uninstall" rule in the Makefile.  Sometimes there isn't.  In that case, you must read your program's documentation and likely delete the files yourself
[21:36] <mka> qetuR, can I pm you?
[21:36] <VirusTB> ................ ........ so is there like a x32 system?
[21:36] <Zteam> obaid:  you really should only use checkinstall instead of make install
[21:36] <DopeGhoti> Hello,  Is there a way to assign a Compose key that's active outside of an X session (to wit, on the console itself)?
[21:36] <jrib> ScoobyDoo: right click -> porperties
[21:36] <qetuR> mka: sure!
[21:36] <agliodbs> but every time I try, I get "pen drive without operating system" error during bootup
[21:37] <ikonia> teg: don't use optimisations if you don't understand them
[21:37] <jrib> VirusTB: here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_80386
[21:37] <Zteam> obaid: then it will create a .deb-package for you
[21:37] <obaid> installation went ok.
[21:37] <VirusTB> jrib,  yea but i still dont git it   a 32 bit works faster? than a 64 bit?
[21:37] <Zteam> Hello
[21:37] <VirusTB> jrib,  other way arround srry *
[21:37] <jrib> VirusTB: 64bit lets you use more ram
[21:37] <ScoobyDoo> jrib That way isn't permanent, You see its some software, And i want a nice icon to go with it
[21:37] <agliodbs> I've googled for similar problems but all of those words are so common I can't get useful results
[21:37] <agliodbs> help?
[21:37] <ralaaz> what mean tor-gpg??
[21:37] <obaid> can i make the deb package, install, then dpkg -r so it removes it all
[21:37] <jrib> ScoobyDoo: why isn't it permanent?
[21:37] <DopeGhoti> VirusTB: a 64bit system can access more RAM and move large chunks of data more quickly (potentially). That's the main difference.
[21:38] <lukus> hi - could anyone recommend some gps software?
[21:38] <Zteam> is there anyone here who knows how to get www.icefilms.info to play nice with Ubuntu?
[21:38] <jrib> obaid: depends how you make the deb file...
[21:38] <AyCarumba> other than xchat or irssi, are there any other irc clients available for ubuntu??
[21:38] <VirusTB> DopeGhoti,  thanks! lol now i understand :P
[21:38] <ScoobyDoo> Jrib: If you put it in an archive and then extract it again the icon is back to it's default.
[21:38] <kcj1993> I can't change the number of workspaces when compiz is on, I only have 2. why is it doing this?
[21:38] <VirusTB> jrib, hanks! lol now i understand :P
[21:38] <reine> to:agliotgs-: format it fat 32 but wipe it first!
[21:39] <DopeGhoti> AyCarumba: there are hundreds, if not thousands
[21:39] <Zteam> obaid: I'm not sure, but most source packages has a uninstalltion script too I think
[21:39] <rataplan_> hello
[21:39] <leoXX> ciao
[21:39] <reine> wouf!
[21:40] <jrib> ScoobyDoo: make a proper .desktop file and bundle it I guess.  Why are you asking this question?
[21:40] <Zteam> s there anyone here who knows how to get www.icefilms.info to play nice with Ubuntu? Sorry if this question break some rule here)
[21:40] <DopeGhoti> Does anyone know if there is a way to assign a Compose key that's active outside of an X session (to wit, on the console itself)?
[21:40] <jrib> AyCarumba: lots.  I like weechat
[21:40] <VirusTB> DopeGhoti,  up to 16 GB RAM for a 64 bit right?
[21:40] <jrib> VirusTB: a lot more...
[21:40] <DopeGhoti> VirusTB: More than that; I think 2TB
[21:40] <rataplan_> i have large log files in /var/log , any idea why tha large files ?
[21:40] <VirusTB> jrib,  :O how much
[21:41] <VirusTB> :O 2TB RAM
[21:41] <DopeGhoti> rataplan_: …because your system is keeping a lot of logs?
[21:41] <justaguy> hello all
[21:41] <jrib> VirusTB: I think it's petabytes...
[21:41] <VirusTB> DopeGhoti,  jrib  is it a good idea . is it possible to turn an 8GB flash usb drive into RAM ?
[21:41] <rataplan_> DopeGhoti:  suddenly ?
[21:42] <jrib> VirusTB: no
[21:42] <coz_> hey guys.. I notice that on dual monitor setup  that the systray and system clock keep switching positions on reboot   any solution to this?  I do have  "Lock to panel"  enabled
[21:42] <agliodbs> anyone?
[21:42] <RocketLauncher> In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again?
[21:42] <justaguy> What is the best way to block access to a web server to all IPs not originating from withing the US
[21:42] <DopeGhoti> rataplan_: which logs?
[21:42] <Zteam> VirusTB: maybe you can mount it as swap by some way?
[21:42] <jrib> VirusTB: it's not a good idea because your flash drive will die
[21:43] <VirusTB> Zteam,  ah nope was trying to play cheap.. guess i ned to buy some RAM jrib
[21:43] <maxfiles> ikonia dont know if you are still there but I am out of ideas
[21:43] <DopeGhoti> VirusTB: also, flash media is orders of magnitude slower than RAM
[21:43] <ikonia> maxfiles: I'll be with you ASAP, just finishing something off
[21:43] <rataplan_> DopeGhoti: kern.log.1     4,5 gb
[21:43] <Zteam> Nobody here using www.icefilms.info ???
[21:44] <DopeGhoti> rataplan_: the .1 indicated it's an old log that's been rotated out. you could try reading the file to see if you see a lot of repeated messages that might explain the sudden increase in size
[21:44] <fuma> alguem ai
[21:44] <DopeGhoti> root: FYI, using IRC as root is generally unwise.
[21:45] <rataplan_> DopeGhoti: yes it has repeated messages, almost the same line
[21:46] <fuma> alguem pode me ajuda
[21:46] <fuma> help me
[21:47] <jrib> !br | fuma
[21:47] <DopeGhoti> rataplan_: that being?
[21:47] <ScoobyDoo> Jrib: .desktop file? How'd I use that?
[21:47] <fuma> dont intalls program
[21:47] <fuma> in  desktop
[21:47] <xangua> ¿¿
[21:47] <jrib> ScoobyDoo: that's what happens when you right click -> properties and change the icon
[21:48] <ScoobyDoo> jrib It creates a .desktop file?
[21:48] <jrib> ScoobyDoo: here: http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/
[21:48] <jrib> ScoobyDoo: iirc, yes
[21:49] <RocketLauncher> In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again?
[21:50] <RobLikesBrunch> When I delete a file from usb drive, no space is actually freed up on the drive. The file simply vanishes from Nautilus. Why is this? When I delete the file from Windows using vmware, space is actually freed-up on the drive.
[21:51] <Vlet> Is there a way to track how many cpu cycles a process took to execute or something along those lines?
[21:51] <DopeGhoti> RobLikesBrunch: something still has the file open (see `lsof`); once that's closed, the space will be freed
[21:51] <rataplan_> DopeGhoti: Jan 24 17:32:52 georgia-desktop kernel: [25719.925683] CPU0: Temperature/speed normal
[21:51] <RobLikesBrunch> DopeGhoti: Aha! Thank you.
[21:51] <ScoobyDoo> jrib: I've changed the icon but their's no .desktop?
[21:51] <jrib> ScoobyDoo: where are you looking?
[21:51] <RobLikesBrunch> #physics
[21:51] <RobLikesBrunch> Oops. Sorry about that.
 had the same thing today, deleted from drive mouted with ntfs-3g it moved the file directly into a .trash-000 folder or whatever it was
[21:51] <DopeGhoti> Vlet: it's not CPU cuycles, but "time $command_here" might do what you want
[21:52] <ScoobyDoo> jrib /home/me/Desktop/
[21:52] <nastas> RocketLauncher: did you try to change the ctr+V command in the keyboard?
[21:52] <RobLikesBrunch> steve_: Yes, that's it exactly.
[21:52] <jrib> ScoobyDoo: probably ends up in ~/.local/share/applications/
[21:52] <Krzysiek> Anyone know of a Linux alter for go to assist?
[21:52] <steve_> strange - dont know y it happened...
[21:52] <RobLikesBrunch> steve_: It always seems to happen to me. One moment, let me test it as DopeGhoti suggested.
 strangely it did not move into the 'deleted items' even
[21:53] <Vlet> DopeGhoti: Thanks, I'll look into it! My only concern with timing is that results may be skewed by other processes loading down the cpu. Thanks again though.
[21:53] <rojanu> Hi all!
[21:53] <DopeGhoti> RobLikesBrunch: also, if there is still a file in use, 'umount' will complain when you try to unmount the drive
[21:54] <rojanu> i have bought a new pair of RAM.  ever since machine is restarting randomly.
[21:54] <rojanu> can RAM cause this?
[21:54] <jrib> rojanu: have you run memtest?
[21:54] <rojanu> yes, no errors
[21:54] <Krzysiek> Anyone know of Linux go to assist alternative?
[21:54] <jellow> Can anyone recommend a way i can use encrypted /home/ remotly on a ssh server ?
[21:54] <RocketLauncher> nastas, i replaced it then removed the shortcut
[21:54] <steve_> rojanu: considered reseating the ram sticks in the slot?
[21:54] <DopeGhoti> Krzysiek: can you rephrase that?
[21:55] <steve_> rojanu: also seem to remember it being mentioned that ram of the wrong speed can do this.
[21:55] <rojanu> I am thinking, I din't get the correct RAM
[21:55] <archboxman> this is a really stupid question how do I get rid of the comment or greeting above my terminal line keeps telling a stupid joke everytime I open the terminal????
[21:55] <jolaren> I am thinking about adding 1 gig ram stick to my ubuntu server.. I don't know if It can handle a DDR memory but I'll try. Will the server automaticly identify it like a desktop enviroment?
[21:56] <DopeGhoti> archboxman: look at ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile, remove a line invoking 'fortune'
[21:56] <daedhel> archboxman: search with the term MOTD (message of the day)
[21:56] <Zteam> rojanu: if memtest doesn't find a error it's usually means your memory is just fine
[21:57] <FunnyLookinHat> Anyone here run dual screen setups with Ubuntu 9.10 via nVidia (9xxx) ?  Success?  Itll work out of the box. But you might need to expand your swap
[21:57] <Schui> hello, i'm trying to combine multiple .csv files into 1 file, anyone know a command for it?
[21:57] <DopeGhoti> FunnyLookinHat: I have on three machines, all successful
[21:57] <deshymers1> Schui: try join
[21:57] <jolaren> daedhel; I'm almost thro the installer.. 90% done, should I restart the installer and add the memory to avoid problems?
[21:57] <rojanu> Ok, I've got a DELL XPS 710, does any know if DDR2 PC6400 is compatiple?
[21:58] <kcj1993> I can't change the number of workspaces when compiz is on, I only have 2. why is it doing this?
[21:58] <RocketLauncher> nastas, no
[21:58] <jolaren> daedhel; I'm not sure if the DDR stick is supported (if the computer can handle it)
[21:58] <archboxman> thanks get ride of that commnet ;) Dont even know why they have a motd
[21:58] <Mepoinc> popey why is ubuntu goig to use yahoo
[21:58] <daftykins> kcj1993: just right click on the square icons for the workspaces and increase the # of columns in the options
[21:58] <maxfiles> ikonia still waiting dont want to have to reinstall linux from scratch, but if its required I will
if your only putting them at the end of the previous file you could do cat <file2> >> file1
[21:58] <InvaderZim> People, there is a person that is trying to install ubuntu 9.10 with the cd, but upon selecting install from the menu, it fails. these are the last 4 lines: http://pastebin.ca/1767144
[21:58] <HOTSAUCE> hey
[21:58] <popey> Mepoinc: this is a support channel..
[21:58] <kcj1993> daftykins, that doesn't work
[21:58] <daedhel> jolaren: then its the computer, hardware, not software
[21:58] <HOTSAUCE> OMG everyone join #1000,0
[21:58] <deshymers1> steve_++
[21:59] <fuma> algum br ai
[21:59] <daftykins> InvaderZim: get them to try the memory test
[21:59] <adam_g> hey--  trying to get lucid server installed on a KVM guest but it doesnt like the virtual frame buffer. is there a way to force it into a strickly text/curses based installation?
[21:59] <InvaderZim> daftykins: memorytest is ok
[21:59] <ikonia> maxfiles: I'll be with you ASAP
[21:59] <jolaren> daedhel; I will install it and then try to add the memory stick and see what it says
[21:59] <daftykins> InvaderZim: hmm next thing i'd check'd be the CD and the optical drive
[21:59] <daedhel> jolaren: jolaren you know your swap has to be at least the size of your ram right ?
[22:00] <jolaren> daedhel; I see... how do I edit this?
[22:00] <DopeGhoti> daedhel: "has to" is rather strong words.  If you have 2GB of ram, needing 2GB of swap is unlikely
[22:00] <DopeGhoti> jolaren: see above
[22:00] <InvaderZim> daftykins: he checked, downloaded 3 times... and changed drives
[22:01] <daedhel> DopeGhoti: required for hibernation
[22:01] <DopeGhoti> daedhel: ah, true
[22:01] <daftykins> InvaderZim: ooh-err, does it operate fine when just running the livecd and using the comp?
[22:01] <vsMS> does someone know the magic that acpi_fakekey does?
[22:01] <RocketLauncher> whoops
[22:01] <RocketLauncher> Damn
[22:01] <daedhel> jolaren: you can change your swap partition space with gparted afterward
[22:01] <DopeGhoti> Does anyone know if there is a way to assign a Compose key that's active outside of an X session (to wit, on the console itself)?
[22:01] <InvaderZim> daftykins: no... livecd gives same error, so checking the disc for defects
[22:01] <archboxman> What is the point in having Message of the Day anyways??? I thought that is what email was for???
[22:01] <DopeGhoti> archboxman: "entertainment purposes"
[22:01] <Schui> steve_, i know in DOS it would be something like "copy *.csv combined.csv", any idea what the equivalent would be in ubuntu?
[22:02] <vsMS> I am trying to understand how some function keys on my laptop are handled by acpi
[22:02] <DopeGhoti> Schui: sound like "cat *.txt" > combined.txt
[22:02] <daedhel> DopeGhoti: you could investigate for "xbindkeys"
[22:02] <archboxman> DopeGhoti: that is worse then doing admin messages in windows.... ;(
[22:02] <emes> half the time, the adobe pdf plugin doesn't work in firefox, is there an alternative?
[22:02] <xangua> emes: mozplugger

[22:02] <DopeGhoti> daedhel: what if I don't have an X server?
[22:03] <HOTSAUCE> OMG CHECK OUT #
[22:03] <daedhel> DopeGhoti: right
[22:03] <vsMS> some of them are handled by /etc/acpi/events/ but it looks some are handled by other way
[22:03] <daedhel> good riddance... fuckin spam
[22:03] <vsMS> can someone help?
[22:03] <Schui> dopeghoti, worked perfectly thanks :D
[22:03] <RocketLauncher> nastas, any idea what i do about ctrl+v

[22:03] <rataplan_> DopeGhoti: if i delete these files i ll have problem ?
 if you use the redirection symbol '>>' you can pipe the contents of the first file into the second, im sure that you could do this more elegantly, cat file2.csv >> file1.csv will dump the contents of file 2 at the end of file1
[22:04] <b0b_rox0r> hi, my ubuntu won't boot anymore, it just stops after these messages http://pastebin.com/m75113c72 (even before the rescue prompt), so what can i do?
[22:04] <DopeGhoti> rataplan_: the 'log.1' files?  You'll only have a problem if you delete them, if you want to know what was in those logs at a later time
[22:05] <Schui> steve, i see what you mean

[22:09] <daedhel> Grumman: you need to read a litte more on webservers. but the web server user usually is "nobody" or "http" you can change ownership with this command : " chmod -R user /dir/to/chmod"

[22:11] <rolsworth> does silverlight work on ubuntu
[22:11] <DopeGhoti> FunnyLookinHat: I have it working in X, I want a working Compose key on my getty terminals as well
[22:11] <daedhel> rolsworth: NO
[22:11] <justaguy> deadhel about a deny all allow list of IP ranges
[22:11] <klausf> hi daedhel I mean the key for the encrypted disks
[22:11] <rolsworth> oh well
[22:11] <FunnyLookinHat> DopeGhoti: cool - Thanks for the good news!
[22:11] <IDWMaster> Silverlight does work on Ubuntu
[22:11] <rolsworth> that sucks
[22:11] <IDWMaster> You need something called Moonlight
[22:11] <CocaCola77> can I run ubuntu on a PIII with 256mb ram? And if so, should I choose the 6.04 lts version?
[22:11] <DopeGhoti> FunnyLookinHat: (my password, for the sake of discussion has, a '¡' in it, preventing me from logging in at a terminal without a Compose key.)
[22:11] <justaguy> deadhel and the problem I see with that is you end up with a .htaccess file that is about 40,000 lines
[22:12] <RockoLauncher> nastas, works
[22:12] <nastas> ok
[22:12] <neconide> can i run ubuntu without a windows?
[22:12] <daedhel> justaguy: sorry didn't get that one please ask again
[22:12] <eu> como entro ubuntu br?
[22:12] <DopeGhoti> !br | eu
[22:12] <daedhel> klausf: sorry, didn't get taht
[22:12] <Xfact> my audacious media player suddenly cras
[22:12] <daedhel> neconide: OF COURSE! :)
[22:12] <josephnexus> I've got an interesting problem. on a dell dimension 2400 desktop, everything works great, but when I install a pci wireless card, it refuses to boot... i can't even boot into recovery mode.... any ideas?
[22:12] <Grumman> daedhel is there a way i can verify what my web server user is?
[22:12] <josephnexus> neconide: you don't need windows to run ubuntu
[22:13] <klausf> hi daedhel: how to change the encryption password of an encrypted file system. I insalled ubuntu server with file system encryption
[22:13] <neconide> i have a windows but i dont have a RAM memorys do i need them?
[22:13] <DopeGhoti> josephnexus: I think he means without a GUI
[22:13] <daedhel> Grumman: in the webserver apps documentation
[22:13] <FunnyLookinHat> DopeGhoti: you know you're a security freak when...  ;-)  I usually settle for a 12 character alphanumeric that is non-dictionary.
[22:13] <daedhel> Grumman: or on the internet, google
[22:13] <Xfact> my audacious media player suddenly chareshed and when the error report part came, it was showing this: The problem cannot be reported:
[22:13] <Xfact> This is not a genuine Ubuntu package
[22:13] <daedhel> klausf: oh sorry, i don't know about encryption
[22:13] <DopeGhoti> FunnyLookinHat: you should see my bank's site's password.  Which is to say, you shouldn't, but you know what I mean.
[22:14] <Imran-UK> josephnexus, whats the error from your pc when you switch on
[22:14] <jolaren> After the installation of Ubuntu Server my lcd screen says "NO VIDEO INPUT" This would be okay but I don't have the IP so I can't connect via ssh. What should I do?
[22:14] <Grumman> it's not specific for my install?
[22:14] <FunnyLookinHat> DopeGhoti: Hah!
[22:14] <justaguy> deadhel my question is this... what is the best way to block all IPs not originating from within the USA.. if I have a deny all allow "insert list of IP ranges" then I have a .htaccess file with over 40,000 lines I admit to not know much but to me this sounds like a heck of a problem... is it?
[22:14] <klausf> daedhel: thanks anyway
[22:14] <daedhel> jolaren: did you get the bios post? grub ?
[22:14] <daedhel> klausf: np
[22:15] <jolaren> daedhel; No.. screen dies before that
[22:15] <daedhel> justaguy: ah! ok. you have to put that in you host.deny file, or install a firewall
[22:15] <sToRm`> guys, i have the linux virus, how 2 remove?
[22:15] <daedhel> jolaren: do you get anything ?
[22:16] <Purpley> Im having problems with flash, a website says I need flash to view something but I have the flash addon for firefox and adobe flash installed on my computer(I checked synaptic manager)
[22:16] <neconide> sToRm`, I GOT IT TOO
[22:16] <neconide> IN MY EMAILS
[22:16] <jolaren> daedhel; "No Input video" it's what I get
[22:16] <justaguy> daedhel Thanks
[22:16] <coolkehon> hi sToRm`
[22:16] <sToRm`> how 2 remove br0 :(
[22:16] <daedhel> sToRm`: I think you cant remove the virus. Also, it comes with a troll.
[22:16] <Purpley> sToRm`, whats the linux virus?
[22:16] <daedhel> justaguy: np
[22:16] <coolkehon> sToRm`: install chkrootkit
[22:16] <coolkehon> and run it
[22:16] <coolkehon> that will usually get rid of it
[22:16] <daedhel> jolaren: hm, cant help with hardware, unless i'm there
[22:17] <Purpley> Im having problems with flash, a website says I need flash to view something but I have the flash addon for firefox and adobe flash installed on my computer(I checked synaptic manager)
[22:17] <DopeGhoti> FunnyLookinHat: instant password generator:  head /dev/urandom | md5sum | awk '{print $1}'
[22:17] <daedhel> coolkehon: he an obvious troll
[22:17] <sToRm`> what's troll
[22:17] <daedhel> haha
[22:17] <coolkehon> daedhel: there are linux viruses
[22:17] <archboxman> Actually I use Linux Mint which is based off of Ubuntu I had to is remove the call to /usr/games/mint fortune in /etc/bash.bashrc thanks for pointing me in the right direction did not need a cow ;)
[22:17] <livusr> if the usb stick isn't automounted, how do I find out the nanme of it?
[22:17] <daedhel> coolkehon: there also are trolls
[22:17] <livusr> name
[22:17] <coolkehon> daedhel: if you don't believe me i'll email u a linux program you can run it and there will be a virus
[22:17] <FunnyLookinHat> DopeGhoti: why not just substr(md5(time),0,12); ?  PHP = User Friendly Bashing!
[22:18] <Purpley> Adobe flash isn't working, how do i fix it?
[22:18] <DopeGhoti> FunnyLookinHat: /dev/urandom is more entropc than time :)
[22:18] <biker> hi
 except for  the slight fact that, unless you run the scripts/programs as root they cannot really do too great deal of damage, unlike windows
[22:18] <RxDx> how can i set my ubuntu to turn off the screen of my laptop after Xminutes? actually it justs blank the screen to black and dont turn it off
[22:18] <coolkehon> DopeGhoti: /dev/random is better
[22:18] <coolkehon> morphix: or so u think
[22:18] <wnstn> I am getting really slow usb transfer speeds, can anyone help diagnose the problem?
[22:19] <biker> I am trying to make a .deb package, but on the info, what is the difference between version and release?
[22:19] <GilJ> Hey Guys, I have some problems with my network-manager, when I want to connect to a wireless network it just tries for a while, and then fails. I'm sure the password is correct
[22:19] <FunnyLookinHat> DopeGhoti: errr...  substr(md5(rand(rand(rand())),0,12); ENTROPICZ
[22:19] <livusr> Purpley: sudo aptitude reinstall flashplayer-nonfree or simiilar
[22:19] <daedhel> livusr: what do you want to do? your unmounted storage devices are /dev/sdx
[22:19] <sToRm`> GilJ: your computer has AIDS
[22:19] <coolkehon> morphix: (netcat binary opens me a shell ) nuff said
[22:19] <coolkehon> sToRm`: the AIDS virus
[22:19] <Purpley> Do I include the or similar?
[22:19] <coolkehon> what's AIDS stand for sToRm`
[22:19] <DopeGhoti> FunnyLookinHat: I don't prefer PHP, personally :p
[22:19] <morphix> coolkehon: i'd like to see this "virus" then
[22:19] <sToRm`> is the AIDS virus the linux virus?
[22:19] <FunnyLookinHat> DopeGhoti: Fair enough :)
[22:19] <coolkehon> morphix: are you sure u want to do that
[22:19] <morphix> you still cant do too much damage without further access to the machine
[22:20] <livusr> daedhel: all usbs are sdX_
[22:20] <sToRm`> the login box on fedora changed into a dancing midget
[22:20] <sToRm`> is this part of the virus?
[22:20] <coolkehon> morphix: giving a shell to the right person would be enough
[22:20] <DopeGhoti> FunnyLookinHat: also, you might have an interest in so-called 'perfect paper passwords':  https://www.grc.com/ppp.htm
[22:20] <Purpley> livusr,  Do I include the or similar?
[22:20] <morphix> coolkehon: of course i wouldnt run it, but i would like to see the code
[22:20] <coolkehon> sToRm`: this is ubuntu join #fedora instead
[22:20] <livusr> Purpley: no
[22:20] <sToRm`> FUCK
[22:20] <coolkehon> morphix: i would have to write it.... and for that i'm to lazy
[22:20] <sToRm`> FUCKING FUCK
[22:20] <coolkehon> sToRm`: what your language
[22:21] <maxfiles> ikonia: am still waiting here am at the point of doing a full reinstall of nix here

[22:21] <coolkehon> *we'll have no *> rest
[22:21] <coolkehon> thanks tsimpson
[22:21] <biker> what is the difference between release and version?
[22:21] <WeCan> anyone know why I can`t play a dvd using Mplayer in ubuntu ?
[22:22] <archboxman> It seems like we have to edit a lot of fills in Linux to get it setup just the way we want when is Some distro going to ,put a little modifactions to gnome /kde to allow the user to build a desktop to his liking... I found a ubuntu article on how to speed up boot times... I figured that was the goal of Ubuntu ???
[22:22] <DopeGhoti> biker: depends on context.  But generally a 'release' is a major update, while a 'version' is a minor one
[22:22] <maxfiles> why is it when I check my runlevel it says unknown?
[22:22] <wnstn> I am getting really slow usb transfer speeds, can anyone help diagnose the problem?
[22:22] <WeCan> I keep getting a seek error
[22:22] <livusr> daedhel: but how do I see which dev to mount? sda? sdb3?
[22:22] <biker> DopeGhoti: its because I am trying to make a .deb package, and when filling the info, it asks me for version and for release
[22:23] <Lord-Readman> how do i tell what exact version of ubuntu i am running? i.e. 32bit , 64bit
[22:23] <coolkehon> i installed apache
[22:23] <josephnexus> Imran-UK: I don't get an error, the boot just hangs at the point the ubuntu should be starting x
 i assume that you have installed the usual packages to get around css?
[22:23] <kurumin> e ae gente
[22:23] <livusr> Lord-Readman: uname -a
[22:23] <spyware> i have moved my ubuntu-server harddrive to a new computer, everything works fine and it boots up without problem. BUT it wont recognize the NIC's in the new computer, i know they are compatible with ubuntu
[22:23] <spyware> is there any way to search for new hardware?
[22:23] <GilJ> Hey Guys, I have some problems with my network-manager, when I want to connect to a wireless network it just tries for a while, and then fails. I'm sure the password is correct
[22:23] <WeCan> no I didn`t whcih package would that be?
[22:23] <Imran-UK> josephnexus, how do you know its the wireless pci thats causing it?
[22:24] <josephnexus> because I remove the wirelss PCI and it boots fine
[22:24] <Lord-Readman> x86_64
[22:24] <biker> GilJ: that happens sometimes to me, just reboot
[22:24] <WeCan> I am kinda new
[22:24] <josephnexus> however, I know that this wireless PCI is compatible, because it came from another machine running ubuntu
[22:24] <GilJ> biker let me give it a go:p
[22:24] <josephnexus> and didn't have any problem
[22:24] <wnstn> WeCan: try 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
 are you able to play them using vlc or any desktop players? if you can then im afraid i cant help
[22:24] <GilJ> biker: reinstalled the package and stuff
[22:24] <biker> GilJ: lol
[22:25] <wnstn> I am getting really slow usb transfer speeds, can anyone please help diagnose the problem?
 thanks :)
[22:25] <Imran-UK> josephnexus, i'd check the dmesg log on next boot, see if there is anything there. otherwise try the kernel param "noapic" - thats often a way to overcome hardware issues, a bit of voodoo
[22:25] <livusr> how do I find out the name of the usb device from dmesg?
[22:25] <WeCan> I never tried vlc I will give it a try  thanks
[22:25] <josephnexus> i'll try noapic
[22:25] <josephnexus> and see what happens
[22:25] <daedhel> livusr: usually you hard drive is sda and your storage is sdb sdc sde etc
[22:25] <GilJ> biker: i restarted, and it connected for a few seconds, but now it can't connect anymore
[22:26] <steve_> WeCan :if its going to work movie player should work just as well
[22:26] <Grumman> still can't find who my web server's user is
[22:26] <DIECAPSLOCK> hello ladiES ANd gentlemEn iS THeRE A HeLP cHaNnEl TO HELP mE dISaBlE MY CAPSlOCK KEy? :(
[22:26] <Imran-UK> josephnexus, also when you get the blank screen, press ctrl + f1 to see if you can get a text console, then log-in as root and check the contents of /var/log/dmesg for some imprint about your wireless pci
[22:26] <livusr> daedhel: so no partition number when mounting an usb?
[22:26] <WeCan> movie player and totem won`t work
[22:26] <josephnexus> i tried that
[22:26] <Izinucs> livusr: obviously this is a removeable device.. what is it?
[22:26] <archboxman> GilJ: how many bars do you get to in wifi???
[22:27] <GilJ> 4 out of 5
[22:27] <Imran-UK> livusr, normal way is to rely on lsusb, lsusb -t
[22:27] <GilJ> so the connection's decent
[22:27] <josephnexus> imran-UK, the freeze is hard, can't even enable/disable numlock
[22:27] <SonicAD> is there anything I can do to make Flash video less choppy? (particularly on fullscreen). Using x64 and tried Adobe's plugin for x64 but that crashes Firefox whenever I try it.
[22:27] <WeCan> I tried browsing the dvd files and loading them manually but I get the seek error
[22:27] <Imran-UK> josephnexus, ok, give noapic a try. see if you can try the card in a windows pc or another ubuntu pc to eliminate the card
[22:27] <archboxman> GilJ: are you using wep or wpa
[22:27] <colman> hello?
[22:27] <justaguy> how do I remove apache2 from and other packages from the list that start on boot?
[22:27] <Izinucs> SonicAD: did you install flashplugin-nonfree and/or ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[22:27] <GilJ> archboxman WPA
[22:27] <josephnexus> Imran-UK, the card works in my other ubuntu workstation
 as <wnstn> suggested earlier 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras' should get you the packages to play dvd's. otherwise a google search play dvd on ubuntu should provide the required info
[22:28] <SonicAD> yes
[22:28] <josephnexus> i'll see what noapic does
[22:28] <archboxman> GilJ: Did you put the key in for wpa
[22:28] <Izinucs> SonicAD: to both?
[22:28] <wnstn> I am getting really slow usb transfer speeds, can anyone please help diagnose the problem?
[22:28] <josephnexus> just hit E when it is showing the grub menu yes?
[22:28] <SonicAD> certain of the latter, double-checking the former right now
[22:28] <GilJ> archboxman Yeah, and it's correct (works from another computer)
[22:28] <colman> hello i need help getting my Cube to work. I have it enabled, but i cannot increase my desktop to 2 it is stuck onto 1
[22:28] <WeCan> Great thanks Steve
[22:28] <SonicAD> did not do the former
[22:28] <Imran-UK> josephnexus, the kernel will log to dmesg up to the freeze point, so worth examining that file on next boot-up
[22:29] <Izinucs> SonicAD: humm.. usually it's because both are installed.. how about gnash? got that installed?
[22:29] <wnstn> colman: are you using gnome panel? If so right click on it and set the colums to desired amount of workspaces
[22:29] <livusr> Imran-UK: lsusb shows my kingston usb, but I'm not sure I see the other one. can it be called a 'hub'?
[22:29] <wnstn> colman: the desktop applet I mean
[22:29] <SonicAD> no
[22:29] <GilJ> archboxman Maybe i should fill out the BSSID? What's that supposed to be though
[22:30] <Izinucs> SonicAD: did you install the flash version direct from adobe?
[22:30] <Flea_> I'm having trouble transferring notes from Tomboy to a Word document. Can someone help?
[22:30] <justaguy> If I don't want apache to start on boot what do i change?
[22:30] <archboxman> GilJ: Not really a wpa guy when it comes to wifi
[22:30] <steve_> WeCan no worries let me know if no joy
[22:30] <SonicAD> the thing I'd installed was the Firefox plugin; that was all I could find relating to it for x64.
[22:30] <Imran-UK> livusr, you can use lsusb -D <devive id> to query it more closely
[22:30] <GilJ> archboxman ah I think I fixed the issue, switched the mode from interface to ad hoc
[22:31] <archboxman> GilJ: still to easy to break security on both wpa and wep...
[22:31] <GilJ> archboxman infrastructure*
[22:31] <steve__> ive got a q for someone who knopws wlan driver for ubuntu 8
[22:31] <GilJ> archboxman, biker: thanks for helping:)
[22:31] <archboxman> GilJ:  that is not what you want refer to the ubuntu site
[22:31] <archboxman> hold on
[22:31] <archboxman> !wep
 was under the impression that wpa was mostly secure, with only minor weaknesses in special circumstances????
[22:32] <Izinucs> SonicAD: ok.. you might uninstall that and reinstall the ubuntu-restricted-extras.. typically the latter will take care of FF on its own.. no need to go through installing another plugin.. try disabling the plugin and restarting FF to see what happens.. then go through the motions for what I just mentioned.
[22:32] <spriizha> hello. I have a question - my gf have ubuntu now, but she is behind router ( which is not accessable for port forwarding ) - is there any possibility to have remote access to that computer if im using winxp?
[22:32] <steve_> and yes WEP is worse than open almost!
[22:32] <steve__> can someone tell me how to get a netgear usb wifi device to pick up on my ubuntu 8.04 system
[22:32] <archboxman> steve_: they tons of weeknesses in wep or wpa
[22:32] <Izinucs> spriizha: not without port forwarding
[22:32] <maxfiles> I can not get 20 services to start
[22:32] <archboxman> I can scan and pick off messages easy hack your router
[22:32] <wnstn> I am getting really slow usb transfer speeds, can anyone please help diagnose the problem?
[22:33] <Imran-UK> ubottu, sometimes you dont have a choice. sadly some wireless devices will only play nice with wep, eg. nintendo ds
[22:33] <steve__> hello is anyone listening
[22:33] <archboxman> !wpa
[22:33] <Izinucs> steve__: no
[22:33] <livusr> Imran-UK: thanks, i
[22:33] <spriizha> Izinucs but isn't there any chance to have something like p2p stuff?
[22:33] <livusr> Imran-UK: i'll try
 fair enough, got an idle interest in wireless security anywhere in particular for WPA weakness info?4
[22:33] <Imran-UK> livusr, np. also try lsub -v (be warned, it will print very verbose info)
[22:34] <jenda> Could someone help me diagnose a DVD burning error? The brasero log is here: http://pastebin.com/m98118b5
[22:34] <jenda> It happens all the time :(
[22:34] <SonicAD> I'd already gotten rid of the x64 plugin earlier so moving straight to reinstalling extras
[22:34] <AlbertEinstein> fuck yea?
[22:34] <Izinucs> spriizha: maybe with P2P but you'd have to use someone else's server.. unless she connects directly to you.. you won't be able to connect to her directly without her initiating it.
[22:34] <Izinucs> SonicAD: is it any flash oriented site that's giving you issues.. like youtube?
[22:35] <colman> hello
[22:35] <SonicAD> yeah, that, anything with flash applications, hulu...
[22:35] <colman> i need help
[22:35] <josephnexus> Imran-UK: how can I see the dmesg logs from the last boot?
[22:35] <colman> my cube doesn't work at all and i have enabled and everthing
[22:35] <archboxman> steve_: seeing how I was in the Coast Guard as Telecommunications Specialist ... I dealt with wifi, radio signal and top secret crypto ...  She is like week on unix, i just need to check some stuff and lags, but i'm going to here place only @ weekends ;/
[22:36] <josephnexus> Imran-UK:  i looked at /var/log/dmesg.0 but didn't see anything indicitive of the wifi card
[22:36] <SonicAD> YouTube video is mostly fine when not full-screen, but still a bit freezy
 no offence intended, just interested ;)
[22:36] <SonicAD> full-screen is pretty much unwatchable
[22:37] <Imran-UK> josephnexus, less /var/log/dmesg and then it is normally numbered .0 for last boot, .1.gz for the time before that etc
[22:37] <SonicAD> and remains the same after reinstalling the extras package
[22:37] <Izinucs> SonicAD: are you using the daily build of FF?
[22:37] <josephnexus> yeah
[22:37] <archboxman> Best way is to study the certifaction exam material give me a second I find it
[22:37] <SonicAD> I'd upgraded to 3.6 final
[22:37] <josephnexus> not seeing anything about the wirelss card Imran-UK
[22:37] <josephnexus> i checked both
[22:37] <steve_> thanx :)
[22:37] <josephnexus> the last boot and the current one
[22:37] <SonicAD> but it's been like this since I switched about a month ago, just didn't know where to ask
[22:38] <josephnexus> the only way I can get to this point is by removing the card, so I looked at the last boot, and still didn't see anything
[22:38] <SonicAD> switched to Ubuntu from Windows, I mean
[22:38] <justaguy> If I don't want apache to start on boot what do i change?
[22:38] <Izinucs> SonicAD: the reason I ask is because suddenly my FF won't do flash at all.. it's the daily build.. however Konqueror works fine.
[22:38] <archboxman> steve_: this is what you want to study http://www.cwnp.com/community/
[22:38] <SonicAD> I don't think it's just Firefox, but let me check in Chrome...
[22:38] <wnstn> I am getting really slow usb transfer speeds, can anyone please help diagnose the problem?
[22:38] <steve_> archboxman> ahh nice one - much appreciated!
[22:39] <archboxman> steve_: Also look into Ham Radio Operator certifaction ... There manual is another big one and files in the wholes
[22:39] <maxfiles> how do you downgrade from 9.1 to 8.04LTS?
[22:39] <Imran-UK> josephnexus, hmmm, i'm running out of ideas then
[22:39] <SonicAD> same issue in Chrome
[22:39] <josephnexus> it's just puzzling, I've never seen this happen
[22:39] <SonicAD> I don't have a particularly powerful system, I just know it worked fine in Windows heh
[22:39] <Imran-UK> josephnexus, i'd look at the hardware differences assuming this and the other ubuntu workstation are the same ubuntu versions
[22:40] <josephnexus> SonicAD: flash under linux still has a ways to go thanks to adobe
[22:40] <archboxman> steve_: I know you can pick that CWNP book up at barnes and noble
[22:40] <Izinucs> SonicAD: you may be limited to smaller windows then..
[22:40] <josephnexus> they are the same version of ubuntu
[22:40] <josephnexus> but the hardware is very different
[22:40] <Squeese> how can I list all process running by name?
[22:40] <wnstn> Squeese: top
[22:40] <SonicAD> eh, I can deal with that
[22:40] <josephnexus> ps aux
[22:40] <SonicAD> thanks for the help though
[22:40] <josephnexus> squeese
[22:41] <josephnexus> psaux is what you want squeese (sorry.... didn't know if you saw it)
[22:41] <Squeese> ya, saw it, thx :)
[22:41] <Imran-UK> josephnexus, i would maybe google "wireless pci card" + ubuntu + problem and see what comes up, sorry
[22:41] <Izinucs> SonicAD: sure.. remember in here is good to use the nick of the person you're talking to so your messages don't get lost in the noise.. enter the first part and hit TAB to autocomplete..
[22:41] <josephnexus> i did... all of it has to do with it not working
[22:41] <steve_> archboxman: i will check that out :)
[22:41] <Imran-UK> "wireless pci card" is your model number
[22:41] <josephnexus> not with it hanging on boot
[22:41] <zamba> how can i quickly determine if a running machine is a virtual or a physical one?
[22:42] <ubuntuguest> hello, I have tried different remedies to fix the display settings to extend my monitor in a desktop dell optiplex gx620
[22:42] <SonicAD> Izinucs: ah ok, I tend to do that but I saw the rules and the whole "don't go looking for just one person for help" thing and wasn't sure if that'd be appropriate
[22:42] <Izinucs> SonicAD: that's how you highlight your message for the other person to easily see.
[22:42] <zamba> it's a server, but i'm unsure if it's a physical box or just a virtual image of some sort
[22:42] <ubuntuguest> I can't finx it, how can I do it?
[22:42] <Imran-UK> josephnexus, there is a good page on the ubuntu wiki listing all the wireless chipsets known to work, there may be a report there on how to overcome problems
[22:42] <Izinucs> SonicAD: it is when you've established a conversation.. or need to answer someone directly.
 you should be able to find info in /proc somewhere
[22:42] <josephnexus> this chipset is supported :-|
[22:42] <josephnexus> i appreciate all of the help
[22:42] <josephnexus> i might just go buy a cheap usb one and see what happens
[22:42] <josephnexus> maybe this particular motherboard doesn't like this particular card
[22:43] <Imran-UK> or go wired :)
[22:43] <SonicAD> Izinucs: gotcha. Ta.
[22:43] <Izinucs> SonicAD: np :)
[22:43] <archboxman> steve_: Just relize that is a lot of info to grasp in a short time you would need to test out most of the theories in the book... Some of the material was even a bit over my head when it comes to wireless routers... There are just so man types... good luck ;)
 cat /proc/cpuinfo
[22:43] <Sokay> Hello, I am new to irc and i was directed to the freenode stuff.  And im am looking for help on a windows server 2008 box.  where can i go to find help?
[22:43] <Sokay> And how do i get there?
[22:43] <zamba> steve_: and if it's a virtual image, i'll know that by?
[22:44] <Sokay> google ran out of help.
[22:44] <recmajkemi> !intrepid
[22:44] <livusr> hmm, it seems that my usb doesn't show up in dmesg when I plug it in. is there some way to force ubuntu to read the usb?
[22:44] <recmajkemi> !hardy
[22:44] <josephnexus> Thanks Imran-UK
[22:44] <steve_> zamba: im no expert but if its a virtual machine you should see mention of it there...
[22:44] <ls22123> is there any difference between tty 7 and pts/0 ?
[22:44]  * josephnexus wishes that 8.04 would have been the "Hungry Hippo"
[22:45] <steve_> zamba: whereas in a physical machine should see the specific type of CPU
[22:45] <josephnexus> !hungry
[22:45] <livusr> josephnexus: i was hoping for horny heron.
[22:45] <WeCan> steve you were very helpful last time, so I was wondering if you know why the game STARCRAFT  woks but I can`t see the entire screen
[22:45] <josephnexus> hmmm
[22:45] <josephnexus> that would cause some fear methinks
[22:45] <Imran-UK> livusr, ive seen that before on certain no-brand usb sticks. also try another usb port, eg. one at the back of the pc
[22:46] <maxfiles> ok
[22:46] <maxfiles> I'm going to reformat the hard drive and do a clearn install of linux here
[22:46] <jenda> Any idea why Brasero fails to burn an iso image? The error occurs with any image, not just this one, and I can't find the cause in the log: http://pastebin.com/m98118b5
[22:46] <maxfiles> since I can't get any help in solving his problem I have
[22:46] <MatBoy> what version of ubuntu runs on an eeepc 901 ? 32 or 64 bits... guess 32
[22:46] <josephnexus> 32
[22:46] <recmajkemi> Pixellated Images in Firefox, how do i fix this?
[22:46] <jolaren> Is there a smart solution for a "dns" for ubuntu server? I have dynamical IP and I want it to update automaticly to a dns server
[22:46] <livusr> Imran-UK: yep, noname usb. got it as swag from some booth at some fair.

[22:48] <agliodbs> can anyone help me with a "Pen drive does not contain operating system" error on a Dell Mini?
[22:48] <queso> If I drag an image from my browser into a Nautilus window to save it, sometimes the File Operations dialog gets stuck. When I hit stop, nothing happens, and it doesn't go away. How can I fix this? Or how can I safely restart Nautilus without having to log out and back in, thus closing all my apps and having to reopen them?
[22:48] <livusr> Imran-UK: well, it works quite well on my work(windows) machine. Just trying to transfer a file to my private computer
[22:48] <rizitis> !alsa
[22:48] <Imran-UK> livusr, i have a no-brand 128mb usb flashdrive that works ok on windows but is glitchy in ubuntu
[22:48] <frostburn> agliodbs, you need to make sure that the usb drive has the bootable flag set...
[22:49] <Imran-UK> i find that if you stick to the known brands of usb sticks, eg. sandisk etc things work ok
[22:49] <josephnexus> obuttu is wrong for karmic

 as a hack you can use the force quit applet on the gnome bar?

[22:51] <livusr> Imran-UK: Switched usb-port and got this in dmesg now. http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d3e0283d3

[22:51] <livusr> Imran-UK: can't figure out what it means though.

[22:51] <livusr> Imran-UK: or if it's possible ot see what to mount from that info
[22:51] <Flea_> Can someone help me with moving my notes from Tomboy to another application like Open Office without losing the formatting of Tomboy?

[22:52] <Imran-UK> livusr, whats the device? and are you using it direct with the usb port or via a hub? is the hub powered?
[22:52] <coachj> what happened
[22:52] <DopeGhoti> aaron11: a composite output is usually a yellow RCA jack. It's the second-worst video connector you can use in terms of picture
[22:52] <WeCan> yes I can only see 70 % of the game the bottom is not showing but it is there
[22:52] <jony123>      Hi im trying to restrict a user with rbash.  However i still want him to be able to cd around his home folder.  but i dont want to to cd anywhere before his home dir.  Does anyone how to change that so that he can cd in his home dir
[22:53] <Imran-UK> coachj, net split
[22:53] <jenda> Hm, I get the same error with brasero and gnomebaker - is there an alternative that uses a different backend?
[22:53] <WeCan> I can see it if I cube the desktop
[22:53] <livusr> Imran-UK: it's plugged directly into the machine.
[22:53] <coachj> k
[22:53] <rednose> What Ubuntu packages are classed as desktop? desktop and server have different end of life dates.
[22:53] <Imran-UK> "port 4 disabled by hub (EMI?), re-enabling..."
[22:53] <agliodbs> frostburn: how do  set the bootable flag?
[22:53] <byt3s> can anyone help me get ts3beta working?
[22:53] <Imran-UK> livusr, try a different port again, the one next to it
[22:54] <aaron11> DopeGhoti: Can you give me a picture
[22:54] <urlwallace> livusr, If I formattedthe usb drive in ntfs in windows it would not  mount in linux so I use fat32 successfully between OS
[22:54] <KCAD> hi
[22:54] <frostburn> agliodbs, i guess first thing first, how did you create the bootable usb key?
[22:54] <DopeGhoti> aaron11: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_video
[22:54] <rednose> Is the a list of packages that lost support when desktop support ends?
[22:54] <agliodbs> frostburn: using usb-creator
[22:55] <mealstrom> urlwallace: ubuntu support ntfs
[22:55] <jenda> How bad of an idea is it to install k3b in gnome?
[22:55] <Dark_Flare> WASSUP
[22:55] <mealstrom> and fa32 is crap
[22:55] <urlwallace> mealstrom, thanks
[22:55] <livusr> Imran-UK: changed port again. same message but with 17 instead of 16.
[22:55] <rww> jenda: not much. You end up with a few KDE libraries installed, but everything works fine.
[22:56] <ana_> server irc.indymedia.org
[22:56] <Dark_Flare> hi ana_
[22:56] <ana_> oops sorry
[22:56] <BusyNovelist> Jenda What type of discs are you using? Like what company are they by?
 do you have any ideas ?
[22:57] <Dark_Flare> WASSUP GUYS?
[22:57] <Imran-UK> livusr, whats the device? a usb flash drive?
[22:57] <Imran-UK> or is it a 2.5" hdd?
[22:57] <byt3s> can anyone help me get ts3beta working?
[22:58] <frostburn> agliodbs, ah funny, i've never been able to get that to work before...  I've always used unetbootin (in the repositories)...  anyway to verify that the boot flag is set,   do a sudo fdisk -l   and make sure there's an * next to the boot disk
[22:58] <urlwallace> Imran-UK, I think it was a usb drive
[22:58] <Flea_> Can anyone help me move my notes from Tomboy to Open Office without losing the formatting of Tomboy??
[22:59] <agliodbs> frostburn: ok, trying
[22:59] <livusr> Imran-UK: it's a flash drive. usb-pendrive
[22:59] <agliodbs> frostburn: I need to reboot from HDD first
[22:59] <agliodbs> frostburn: is there any way to set the boot flag for an existing USB, or do I need to reformat it?
 gparted should be able to
[23:00] <frostburn> agliodbs, you can set it using fdisk again    sudo fdisk /dev/sda1234   where 1234 is the drive in question... then go to the menu, press a   to make it bootable, then w to write
[23:00] <josephnexus> WeCan: i am thinking
[23:00] <Imran-UK> livusr, not sure what i can suggest further other than googling that suspicious dmesg line "disabled by hub (EMI?)"
[23:01] <josephnexus> wecan: run winecfg from a terminal and try emulating a desktop, and see if it works
[23:01] <punktilend> can anyon help me out try to figure out why boxee  is very laggy on ubuntu 9.04?
[23:01] <administrator_> im having problems running nautilus with sudo command (running 9.10)
[23:01] <livusr> Imran-UK: doing that now. found something in ubuntuforums i think.
[23:01] <livusr> Imran-UK: thanks for your help

[23:02] <jenda> Hm, I'm using Imation DVD+R's, if that's relevant in any way.
[23:02] <krimchou> i can run xserver in safe mode (root) but not with my session
[23:02] <krimchou> ?
[23:02] <Flea_> Is there anyway to transport notes from Tomboy to a .doc file without losing the formatting?
[23:02] <DopeGhoti> krimchou: try 'startx' perhaps?
[23:02] <jenda> This person seems to have the same problems I do, and found a solution, but I don't understand it: :( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=933114

[23:03] <krimchou> DopeGhoti, startx does work with safe mode but not in my session
[23:03] <agliodbs> unetbootin isn't in apt-get ....
[23:03] <rww> jenda: no idea, but it's worked for me (and others) where brasero doesn't before
[23:03] <frostburn> agliodbs, then it should work, i'd still try unetbootin ... i've always had success with that  otherwise, not sure how else i can help... might be a hardware issue too... my dell doesn't boot from the latest iso either
[23:03] <Flea_> erUSUL how do i do that? I have the add-in installed in tomboy, but the option to do that to a note is nowhere to be found.
[23:03] <ezrafree> hello
[23:03] <administrator_> im going to change my name quick so i dont confuse people
[23:04] <agliodbs> frostburn: oh?  which dell do you have?
[23:04] <babbio> hi guys....why the "cpu freq scaling" does not work in ubuntu but perfectly works on windows??? should i install some additional packages???
[23:04] <ezrafree> has anyone ever heard of firefox closing every time you type in the google search bar at the top?
[23:04] <erUSUL> jenda: he did not used brasero but the nautilus cd burner ( right click on the iso choose writte to disk )
[23:04] <frostburn> agliodbs, it's an old optiplex (tower)
[23:04] <erUSUL> Flea_: in the icon with gears on each note

[23:05] <jolaren> How do I know what hardware is attached to my computer using terminal?
[23:05] <agliodbs> frostburn: ah
[23:05] <agliodbs> frostburn: you said it was an issue specifically with the latest ISO?
[23:05] <jenda> erUSUL: hmm, in Kramic, right-clicking launches brasero, dunnit?
[23:05] <jenda> In any case, the error is identical in both cases.
[23:05] <Mkop1> is there some way to remove a meta-package along with all its dependencies? e.g. to remove all of gnome-games at once?
[23:05] <jenda> rww: trying it now, thanks.
[23:06] <jolaren> I'd like to know some info about my server but I don't know how to display hardware using termianl
[23:06] <erUSUL> jenda: i suppose
[23:06] <frostburn> agliodbs, yeah, the iso boots fine in other pcs, but doesn't in mine.  older iso's work fine though...   I'd post on the ubuntu forums to see if there's anyone else having the same issue
[23:06] <Flea_> thanks, erUSUL. It worked!

[23:17] <spriizha> ehh. i got 1 pc under router in different place of city. i can't access the router - but i need remote access to it.
[23:17] <spriizha> so i can't manage port forwarding
[23:18] <spriizha> and that pc runs ubuntu
[23:18] <coachj> is it possible to get my ati readon 9000 card working???
[23:18] <frostburn> spriizha, i'd set up a vpn tunnel, or just use ssh port forwarding
[23:18] <spriizha> vpn, lol of curse
[23:18] <spriizha> thx
[23:18] <kerpali86> coachj: download the drivers. =)
[23:18] <spriizha> hmm, how can i forward ssh port?
[23:18] <frostburn> spriizha, on windows or linux
[23:18] <coachj> kerpali86: from the ati site??
[23:18] <mealstrom> ubuntu preseed install
[23:18] <mealstrom>  d-i passwd/user-password-crypted password md5    -- I've got problem after system install with this password. it doesn't match
[23:18] <spriizha> on ubuntu
[23:19] <kerpali86> yes don't install the drivers that come w/ ubuntu
[23:19] <mealstrom> I've used htpasswd (appache2)
[23:19] <mealstrom> any ideas?
[23:19] <frostburn> spriizha, http://www.ssh.com/support/documentation/online/ssh/adminguide/32/Port_Forwarding.html
[23:19] <spriizha> i need to connect to ubuntu with my winxp laptop
[23:19] <grkblood13> whats a good tool for resizing mkv files to proper aspect ratio? like resizing a 1280x528 to 1280x720
[23:19] <coachj> kerpali86: I must be doing something wrong because i have done that and it wont install
[23:19] <maggs__> does anyone know if it wednesday yet in canada?
[23:19] <maggs__> if it is*
[23:19] <spriizha> thx frostburn, will manage some reading, if what will ask.
[23:19] <frostburn> spriizha, ah, for windows, use putty http://www.cs.uu.nl/technical/services/ssh/putty/puttyfw.html
[23:19] <hoban> maggs__, nope
[23:20] <coachj> maggs: no
[23:20] <coachj> maggs: no as in it;s not wednesday
[23:20] <maggs__> ok, how far off is it?
[23:20] <kerpali86> coachJ: What exactly is breaking? Is it not displaying at proper resolution or is ubuntu not recognizing your card?
[23:20] <coachj> maggs 5 0r 6 hrs
 ffmpeg is the thing that will likely do the work but you should be able to find a nicer frontend
[23:21] <maggs__> hhmm, birthday wishes can wait til i wake up then, cheers coachj
[23:21] <coachj> herpali86: not rec card
[23:21] <grkblood13> steve, im looking for somethign with a gui, ffmpeg can be tricky if you are not completely familiar with it
[23:21] <grkblood13> which im not
[23:21] <coachj> kerpali86: not rec card
[23:21] <jolaren> Do you have to logout when having used a ubuntu server via ssh?
 i know that feeling will have a look on the net, let me know if you find anything, i could do with something to do the same thing :)
[23:22] <kerpali86> coachJ: do sudo lshw -class display
[23:22] <grkblood13> k, will look
[23:22] <Blue1> !apache2
[23:23] <Blue1> !apache
[23:23] <coachj> kerpali86: it is recing it
 just a thought vlc is able to do a lot when it comes to reencoding, never used it tho
[23:24] <grkblood13> yea, i stay away form vlc when possible
[23:24] <grkblood13> not my favorite app
[23:24] <kerpali86> coachj: then the problem is you xorg file
[23:24] <tey> what about mplayer?
[23:24] <steve_> tey: to re-encode video?
[23:24] <archboxman> steve_: The biggest thing none of the books will tell you is if you live near a airport or radio station there signal is over 30MHz which has enough power to knock out any commerial grade device unless you sheild your phone.... A phone sends a signal above radio station power, but your phone doesn't have enough power to knock out electronic devices.. But the radio station has a seperate amplifier which makes the signal strong enou
[23:25] <coachj> kerpali86: what should i do?
[23:25] <tey> oh, u need re-encode, so lives ? do u know lives? its ez :P
[23:25] <Blue1> i would like apache to let me use something in my home directory rather then /var/www - what do I need to change/fix?
[23:25] <tey> its like windows movie maker xD
[23:25] <kerpali86> coachj: backup the original, delete the original, reinstall the drivers.. make sure you install the drivers when not using X.. it- kill Xwindows first
 its not something i have ever come across but i can imagine that it would cause problems ;)
[23:26] <ssam> crystalblue, what do you need to know?
[23:26] <kerpali86> coachj: do you know how to do any of that?
[23:26] <coachj> prob not
[23:27] <coachj> kerpali86: prob not
[23:27] <kerpali86> coachj: lets do it a step at a time, #1 backup your original xorg.conf file.. go to terminal and type locate xorg.conf
[23:27] <wcs> hi!
[23:28] <kerpali86> coachj: navigate to the folder it's in and then cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.bak
[23:28] <methano1> Hello I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 and whenever I boot it will begin loading then go to a black screen and sit or it will begin loading and then drop me to the login prompt and suddenly go to a black screen before I can type in anything.  The only way I can get into ubuntu is boot into recovery mode and then choose resume and let it boot.  Anyone know why it would do this and how to fix it?
[23:29] <Dreakon> Hello all.
[23:29] <wcs> alo!,
[23:29] <livusr> oi
[23:29] <purpleGecko> Blue1: it's not really recommended, but you can change it in the httpd.conf file
[23:29] <kerpali86> coachj: rm -r xorg.conf.
[23:29] <wcs> @methano1, do you check your init.d?
[23:29] <Blue1> purpleGecko: to what?
[23:29] <kerpali86> coach: now the next steps you need to remember/write down, don't do this yet
[23:30] <wcs> maybe some daemon is craking your system
[23:30] <archboxman> steve_: Drive up next to a airports backgate were plans take off at if Close enough it will case you cell phone to not recieve signal... This happens a lot to people using nextels walkie talkie...
[23:30] <Dreakon> I was talking to someone before in here about getting my Intel GMA video working better in Ubuntu...
[23:30] <Dreakon> ikonia I think it was, you around? :P
[23:30] <purpleGecko> Blue1: there will be a directive in there, called DocumentRoot, which is set to /var/www, you just need to change it to the directory you want
[23:31] <kerpali86> coachj: now the next steps you need to remember/write down, don't do this yet. First you need to kill X, Cntrl+alt+f1, then login again, and then type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop. Then install your drivers from terminal prompt.. ./<executable catalyst file>
[23:31] <archboxman> steve_: Got to run have a good ...Sorry I didn't answer you back sooner got busy with people wishing me a happy birthday... have a good day
[23:32] <kerpali86> let it run and then restart, and it should work. if it doesn't.. kill X again and replace your conf w/ your backup
[23:32] <Blue1> purpleGecko: /etc/apache2/httpd.conf is a nullfile
[23:32] <purpleGecko> Blue1: are you using Karmic (9.10)?
 best wishes for your bday! hope you have a good one, cheerz for the info
[23:33] <coachj> kerpali86: that it?
[23:33] <grkblood13> steve, do you see anything wron with this? ffmpeg -i 1.mkv -b 3000k -s hd720 2.mkv
[23:33] <kerpali86> coachJ: yah that's it
[23:33] <Blue1> purpleGecko: yes
[23:33] <coachj> kerpali86: ill try, thks
 ummmm never played with ffmpeg yet
[23:33] <grkblood13> i get this
[23:33] <grkblood13> Error while opening codec for output stream #0.1 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height
[23:33] <kerpali86> coachj: just make sure you backup your xorg conf, that way you can always revert back to normal if things go wrong
[23:33] <Hohokam> test
 might be worth seeing if you can try it on a limited frame range first to see if it works ok...
 it looks like im going to have to leave you, else im going to become quickly single.. oops
[23:34] <livusr> Blue1:  apache2.conf then.
[23:34] <steve_> nyte all
[23:34] <vAd0r> how do i install Net::Telnet::Cisco
[23:35] <Blue1>  livusr okay let me check thanks
[23:35] <grkblood13> night
[23:35] <purpleGecko> Blue1: Sorry, my fault - I get so used to my setup!
[23:35] <livusr> vAd0r: perl module?
[23:35] <methano1> wcs check what in init.d?
[23:35] <purpleGecko> Blue1: in /etc/apache2/sites-available will be a file called default.  In there is the DocumentRoot directive
[23:36] <kerpali86> Net::Telnet::Cisco? if that's a perl module then just to sudo perl -MCPAN -eshell; and then type "install Net::Telnet::Cisco"
[23:36] <Dreakon> Hey guys, I think Ubuntu isn't configured properly to work well with my Intel GMA video card.  All the windows open and close and move very sluggishly.
[23:36] <Dreakon> Any ideas?
[23:36] <purpleGecko> Change that to the directory you want, as well as the <Directory> entry
[23:36] <wcs> in init.d is stored the daemons who are launched in the boot
[23:36] <kerpali86> vAd0r: Net::Telnet::Cisco? if that's a perl module then just to sudo perl -MCPAN -eshell; and then type "install Net::Telnet::Cisco"
[23:37] <Dreakon> Hey guys, I think Ubuntu isn't configured properly to work well with my Intel GMA video card.  All the windows open and close and move very sluggishly.  Any ideas?
[23:37] <tey> have u installed non-free drivers dreakon?
[23:37] <panfist> should 'ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>work to ssh into the live cd? that command just seems to hang...not error, timeout, etc like you would expect
[23:37] <CAPcap> When I plug in my external drives (Thumbs external HDD mp3 players and card readers with cards plugged in) they automatically open the root folder of the drives in a nautilus explorer window. how do i change that?
[23:37] <Dreakon> I havent installed any drivers, im working with whatever is default
[23:37] <tey> ubuntu should tell u about install non-free controllers for ur graphic card
[23:37] <Dreakon> I have Ubuntu 9.10
[23:37] <tey> k, me too
[23:38] <tey> go to system -> administration
[23:38] <tey> and enter hardware controlers
[23:38] <tey> it will scan your hardware and offer u to install non-free controllers
[23:39] <Blue1> livusr: so If I want anyuser to be able to use /home/<user>/public_html what do I change just the document root to what for ANY user?
[23:39] <Dreakon> um, a window just popped up and says "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system."
[23:39] <Dreakon> I just did a fresh install
[23:40] <tey> have u seen the "hardware controllers" window?
[23:40] <jolaren> Dreakon; If your not in need of any then there's no use for prop drivers
[23:40] <Dreakon> I see.
[23:40] <Dreakon> Is there anything I can do to make Ubuntu less sluggish then?
[23:40] <Slade-> hey what grub package do i need to install so I can make bootable floppies/isos  (i need the stage2_eltorito or the /boot/grub/stage1 stage2 files)
[23:41] <methano1> not really sure what to look for that would help resolve this problem
[23:41] <CAPcap> When I plug in my external drives (Thumbs external HDD mp3 players and card readers with cards plugged in) they automatically open the root folder of the drives in a nautilus explorer window. how do i change that?
[23:42] <kerpali86> Dreakon: what hardware are you running on? My guess is that it's your memory: do 'free -m' and see how much memory is available in the 2nd row.. ignore the first one
[23:42] <hiexpo> boy did i pull a dosie this morning messing with the display system files caused a fresh install lol
[23:42] <kerpali86> Dreakon: first row*
[23:42] <tey> Dreakon, I installed my grapic card drivers by selecting the "recomended" driver in "hardware controllers" and pressing "activate"
[23:42] <vAd0r> thx
[23:43] <Dreakon> the second row says 1698
[23:43] <hiexpo> yes
[23:43] <Dreakon> tey: nothing came up in the Hardware Drivers window :-/
[23:43] <kerpali86> Dreakon: for free memory?
[23:43] <Dreakon> yes
[23:43] <Dreakon> I have 2gb of RAM
[23:43] <purpleGecko> Blue1: For user directories, don't use the DocumentRoot, there is a UserDir : http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_userdir.html#userdir
[23:43] <bid> i have ubuntu server, i want to install svn server. what should i look for? i have no Xserver and i saw only help on machine with GUI
[23:44] <kerpali86> Dreakon: ok then using swap is not slowing down your Ubuntu. It's def. your graphic drivers then at the very least. Also do the 'top' command and see if any processes are runnin gat like 90 or 100%
[23:44] <tey> the slowly windows are because graphic card, ram should not be problem with 2gb XD
[23:44] <kerpali86> Dreakon: ATI/NVidia?
[23:44] <Dreakon> No, at most the CPU levels are at 5-10%
[23:45] <Dreakon> Intel GMA X4500HD
[23:45] <tey> it has to be the driver
[23:45] <iflema> CAPcap if ya in Gnome, under preferences in nautilus on the media tab
[23:45] <Blue1> purpleGecko: thanks - but it doesn't say if thats httpd.conf or apache2.conf or?
[23:45] <trism> bid: sudo apt-get install subversion;
[23:45] <Dreakon> tey: I didn't get any options in the Hardware Controller window.  It was empty after the search was complete.
[23:46] <CAPcap> that'll do it iflema thanks!
[23:46] <purpleGecko> Blue1: So if you put UserDir public_html in the apache2.conf, users could store their html files in a public_html directory in their home, and access it using http://server/~username
[23:46] <kerpali86> Dreakon: Yah I agree with tey, it's def the driver. the problem is that is an internal Intel card.. I have no idea where to get drivers other than picking the one Ubuntu offers you..
[23:46] <Brandon> when burning the cd to install ubuntu.. what do i name the cd? does it mater?
[23:46] <Brandon> or do i just open iso with nero and let it burn
[23:46] <tey> Dreakon: i have only Closed drivers in the window, maybe u can install it by aptitude, im going to search
[23:46] <Pici> Brandon: Just open the iso and let it burn
[23:47] <Dreakon> I appreciate it tey. :)
[23:47] <Diverdude> If i use virtual box to install e.g. windows XP, do I then need to put in a licensekey?
[23:47] <Pici> Diverdude: Sure.
[23:47] <GentooJay> Driverdude: yes you do
[23:47] <paradox_> Diverdue: believe so
[23:47] <purpleGecko> Blue1: but make sure you also put "UserDir disabled root" in there, for a bit of security
[23:47] <GentooJay> Driverdude: ;)
[23:47] <paradox_> typo :P
[23:47] <Pici> Diverdude: You'll need the installation media or iso image too.
[23:48] <Grumman> where can i find ""development" packages for MySQL"
[23:48] <kerpali86> Dreakon: if that doesn't work w/ Ubuntu drivers, try going to intel's site and manually installing the drivers. http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng .
[23:48] <panfist> should 'ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>work to ssh into the live cd? that command just seems to hang...not error, timeout, etc like you would expect
[23:48] <Diverdude> Pici, aha...i see...And if the livense is embedded in the ISO image? Its because I can get some MS software through my university service
[23:49] <Pici> Diverdude: The install will run just as if you were running it on a real computer, so anything you see there, you'll see on the vbox install.
[23:49] <paradox_> how would I go about making the audio in my flashplayer work? I get video fine, no audio though.
[23:49] <Blue1> ah this is complicated
[23:49] <Dreakon> are there official intel drivers for ubuntu?
[23:49] <Diverdude> Pici, perfect....what about partitions and such? Will virtualbox partion my harddisk or how does that work?
[23:50] <Pici> Diverdude: You'll have to parition the virtual drive
[23:50] <purpleGecko> Blue1: it can be :)  it should just need those two directives in the apache2.conf file to make it work though (you will need to restart apache though)
[23:50] <kerpali86> Dreakon: they should be included with the ubuntu live CD... I've never heard of problems dealing with internet graphic cards unless they're brand new.
[23:50] <HTC> !rs
[23:50] <kerpali86> Dreakon: the older it is, the better it works w/ ubuntu. =P
[23:50] <Blue1> purpleGecko: I don;t know this is what I have...
[23:51] <Slade-> hey i'm reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy  but it refers to 2 files that I dont have (/boot/grub/stage1 + 2)  do i need to install some package to get them?
[23:51] <Pici> Grumman: apt-cache search libmysql | grep dev
[23:51] <Diverdude> Pici, the virtual drive?
[23:51] <Dreakon> The older the graphics card or older the drivers? lol
[23:51] <Dreakon> should I try one of these on the official site?
[23:51] <kerpali86> Dreakon: old graphic card.. try manualling installing the drivers from intel's site
[23:51] <kerpali86> Dreakon: manually*
[23:51] <Blue1> purpleGecko: last line of apache2.conf -- # try to use ~username/public_html gu 01/26/2009
[23:51] <Blue1> UserDir public_html
[23:52] <deshymers1> I was wondering is there much that can be done to decrease the time it takes for my netbook to connect to my wireless router? it doesnt take a terrible amount of time to connect but I was wondering if there was much that can be done to help it?
[23:52] <Pici> Diverdude: Well, you aren't making a real install.  vbox will create a file that will hold your disk image.  Then you can use the Windows installer to partition, or you could even boot a gparted live CD and partition with that if you want.
[23:52] <Pici> Diverdude: More help can be found in #vbox
[23:53] <phantomcircuit> uh so i added a host entry to /etc/hsots
[23:53] <purpleGecko> Blue1: paste your config file in http://ubuntu.pastebin.com and paste the URL here
[23:53] <phantomcircuit> but `host example.com` is still returning the old ip
[23:53] <phantomcircuit> wat do?
[23:53] <Grumman> Pici i am having problems installing a program on linux
[23:53] <Pici> Grumman: Which?
[23:53] <Dreakon> kerpali86: Is this what I want to download?  http://edc.intel.com/Software/Downloads/IEGD/
[23:53] <panfist> how can i set the password for the 'ubuntu' user on the live cd?
[23:53] <Grumman> bugzilla
[23:54] <panfist> or...is it a default value? i thought it was randomized...i could be wrong...?
[23:54] <Pici> Grumman: Its in the repositories: sudo apt-get bugzilla3
[23:54] <Grumman> well, i started with this: http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/3.4/en/html/installation.html
[23:55] <chelz> what's the difference between the repos/components/distros karmic-updates and karmic?
[23:55] <kerpali86> Dreakon: probably, I can't tell 100%. Which chipset does your mobo use? X45?
[23:55] <NightCor3> how this dock called http://up196.siz.co.il/up1/tumlmdnzrtlw.png ? :(
[23:55] <Grumman> why do they have a big long install document if all you have to do is sudo apt-get bugzilla3
[23:55] <Pici> Grumman: I don't have a web browser available to use at the moment :( sorry.
[23:55] <Grumman> k
[23:55] <chelz> NightCor3: try #windows
[23:55] <Dreakon> X4500HD
[23:56] <Grumman> well, basically it tells you to install perl, mysql, apache, bugzilla, and necessary perl modules
[23:56] <Blue1> purpleGecko: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m4dfee17c
[23:56] <coachj> kerpali86: you stll here?
[23:56] <kerpali86> Dreakon: that's just the model number, according to wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_GMA#GMA_X4500 it uses the the G43 chipset
[23:57] <Dreakon> im not sure how to check the chipset...
[23:57] <kerpali86> coachj: yah I'm still here
[23:57] <grkblood13> is 9.10 more stable than 9.04?
[23:57] <kerpali86> coachj: did it work?
[23:57] <purpleGecko> Blue1: looks good.  add "UserDir disabled root" at the end (minus the quotes)
[23:57] <coachj> kerpali86: should the drivers be .rpm
[23:58] <klausf> simple question I have xorg and NO windows manager at all. How can I configure the screen size?
[23:58] <Slade-> guess i'll play "guess which package this file is installed in"
[23:58] <chelz> grkblood13: the only distinction made is between LTS releases and non-LTS releases
[23:58] <chelz> grkblood13: so 8.04 and 10.04 are LTS
[23:58] <kerpali86> that's just the executible, it's just a package manager, like .deb is for ubuntu, .rpm it for other OSs but you still make it work w/ ubuntu
[23:58] <jordy240> I just plugged in my headphones and was listing to music. well I went to watch a youtube video, and the sound was 2000% louder than the music and nearly destroyed my eardrums. this is exactly why linux will never ever be on the standard everyday desktop; because it's more concerned with looking 'leet' than actually functioning
[23:58] <chelz> klausf: in xorg.conf
[23:58] <obladda> klausf: ctrl-alt-plus
[23:58] <coachj> kerpali86: ok going slow
[23:58] <nickkontos> hello, i have a problem with my tv card- i can't hear anything, i have installed and played with gnome-alsa-mixer but nothing... i get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/363530/ with lspci, please help, I am at a friends pc and I am trying to show him that ubuntu can replace msbill :p
[23:59] <coachj> kerpali86: ill let u know
[23:59] <kerpali86> coachK sudo aptitude install alien; sudo alien -i package_file.rpm
[23:59] <mka> grkblood13, why asking?
[23:59] <chelz> jordy240: go into audio settings
[23:59] <obladda> klausf: ctrl-alt-minus on the numeric keypad
[23:59] <grkblood13> b/c im sceptical about upgrading
[23:59] <NightCor3> how this dock called http://up196.siz.co.il/up1/tumlmdnzrtlw.png ? :(
[23:59] <grkblood13> b/c ive had ubuntu break on me before
[23:59] <coachj> kerpali86: what is that?
[23:59] <kerpali86> Dreakon: those drivers should work. go ahead and install it
[23:59] <grkblood13> and 9.04 has been pretty solid
[23:59] <klausf> im' running in virtualbox so no idea how to press ctr-alt- +
[23:59] <jordy240> chelz: sorry, but how does that help? at all?
[23:59] <kerpali86> coachj: It's how to use .rpm files w/ Ubuntu
[23:59] <jolaren> How do I format all my hdd's except for the one I'm using?
[23:59] <coachj> ok
[23:59] <chelz> jordy240: it's an audio issue and that's where you adjust audio levels. lol
