[20:59] <Gaara> OK,
[20:59] <centuryon> how to kill for good pulsesh#$%t?? Stop messing up with the audio??
[20:59] <Gaara> I have flash Installed.
[20:59] <Gaara> I can play youtube videos.
[20:59] <Gaara> But this SWFObject on a site, .swf does not work.
[20:59] <nndhawan> hey all was wondering does anyone know how to link a different openId account to their existing ubuntu account?
[20:59] <centuryon> I gotta use jack for audio apps, pulscrap is messing up with the mic and things.
[20:59] <thesnark> edbian getting screen sot
[20:59] <thesnark> shot*
[20:59] <edbian> thesnark: it should be somewhere
[21:00] <edbian> thesnark: Look all through the menus.  Perhaps it's in System -> Preferences   ?  or run it in the terminal ?
[21:00] <xxmmaann> pfifo:  no
[21:00] <mrdeb> alphacat: 1gb is enough to install ubuntu
[21:00] <edbian> Where is software sources?  I'm not on an Ubuntu 11.04 classic machine
[21:00] <centuryon> how to destroy pulseabomination so it won't show in programs as sound option?? even in system config??
[21:00] <thesnark> terminal is preferrable....what is the program name?
[21:00] <pfifo> xxmmaann, does it list your monitor there?
[21:00] <edbian> thesnark: I'll take a look at your screenshot just for fun :)
[21:00] <mrdeb> edbian: /etc/apt/sources.list
[21:00] <thesnark> edbian ok
[21:00] <edbian> mrdeb: In the gui ?
[21:01] <xxmmaann> yes
[21:01] <goddard> im trying to setup my network card but its not recognizing it
[21:01] <mrdeb> edbian: in gui, its synaptic from menu, then repos in menu
[21:01] <edbian> mrdeb: It's hard to change servers in /etc/apt/sources.list
[21:01] <edbian> mrdeb: It's in synaptic?
[21:01] <duvel> Hey guys. Just installed G19d on my Ubuntu 10.04 LTS partition and the only thing it's done is put the Linux penguin mascot on the LCD with "G19Daemon" underneath it. Is there any other sort of settings or configurations that I can use to get full or close to full functionality out of the keyboard? There was no response in the #LG4L channel that's why I'm asking here. Thank you in advance!
[21:01] <edbian> mrdeb: I thought it had its own gui
[21:01] <mrdeb> edbian: yes
[21:01] <mrdeb> no
[21:01] <pfifo> xxmmaann, click advanced, what does it list in 'panning'
[21:01] <xxmmaann> i can change the reesolution but i have this problem http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvbfmLIRSlU
[21:01] <edbian> mrdeb: thanks
[21:01] <centuryon> this is a temporary workaround mv  /etc/init.d/pulseaudio /etc/init.d/pulseaudio.bak
[21:01] <alphacat> mrdeb: with normal iso/install settings? sorry, first time doing this
[21:01] <edbian> mrdeb: You hate arch.  Why?
[21:02] <KM0201> edbian: i think that option went away in 11.04
[21:02] <edbian> thesnark: Did you see what mrdeb said??
[21:02] <edbian> KM0201: thanks
[21:02]  * edbian feels old
[21:02] <mrdeb> edbian: no i like arch
[21:02] <centuryon> but that doesnt fully delete pulse as audio option.
[21:02] <edbian> mrdeb: :P
[21:02] <thesnark> edbian yes I saw what mrdeb said
[21:02] <pfifo> xxmmaann, if you can change the resolution, then set panning to match your desired resolution
[21:02] <centuryon> nobody knows??
[21:02] <thesnark> edbian very good
[21:02] <mrdeb> what alphacat
[21:02] <edbian> thesnark: sure :)
[21:02] <edbian> alphacat?
[21:02] <xxmmaann> what? i cant understand
[21:03] <mrdeb> edbian: i just dled the arch 6/10 testing iso
[21:03] <centuryon> HOW TO DISABLE PULSEAUDIO???!!!111
[21:03] <mrdeb> centuryon: sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio*
[21:03] <edbian> ha
[21:03] <alphacat> mrdeb: dont worry, i'll try that thanks
[21:04] <alphacat> any idea why the wubi metalink might be failing though?
[21:04] <centuryon> mrdeb: will that leave ubuntu with a functional audio afterwards?
[21:04] <thesnark> oh that's cute, synaptic has a "select best server" feature
[21:04] <centuryon> does it default to plain alsa??
[21:04] <mrdeb> centuryon: no
[21:04] <KM0201> alphacat: i'd consider yourself lucky if wubi isn't working
[21:05] <centuryon> wait a minute, so ubutnut has hardcoded everything to depend on pulse??
[21:05] <centuryon> I don't get it.
[21:05] <mrdeb> centuryon: yes all modern distros do, gnome 3 requires pulse now
[21:05] <Jeruvy> centuryon: you resemble a troll
[21:05] <mrdeb> centuryon: only way to avoid it is base install
[21:05] <xxmmaann> O:-)
[21:06] <pfifo> xxmmaann, http://imagebin.org/161246
[21:07] <centuryon> Jeruvy: nope, I am trying to use JACKD, you know, audio editing software DO use jackd. Now pulse is messing with the mic for instance not picking up in ardour2.
[21:07] <centuryon> Jeruvy: is that trolling or a legitimate issue??
[21:07] <Dr_Willis> I wonder what Ubuntu-studio does with pulse and jackd.
[21:07] <yeats> centuryon: you can remove pulseaudio and live with ALSA (it does default to ALSA), but a lot of Ubuntu features are hardcoded to use pulse
[21:07] <xxmmaann> i aleready did this but not work
[21:07] <Jeruvy> centuryon: you now state an issue, your prior comments resemble trolling
[21:07] <rajvi> my bluetooth on working on ubuntu 10.10 made some changes to the UI of ubuntu and installed a lot of .debs but can't think ... why why my bluetooth died :(
[21:08] <Jeruvy> centuryon: I'd keep that in perspective in the future if I was you.
[21:08] <xxmmaann> the screen is too big so i need move the mouse to move the sccreen
[21:08] <xxmmaann> ;-)
[21:08] <xxmmaann> can you understand?
[21:08] <thesnark> thanks edbian, mrdeb
[21:08] <pfifo> xxmmaann, you set you panning area and your display size to the same number?
[21:08] <thesnark> later
[21:09] <centuryon> ok, I can live with a broken sound system as long as jack apps DO work. I don't need a system bell for instance.
[21:09] <centuryon> Jeruvy: well, it was driving me nuts.
[21:09] <Jeruvy> centuryon: fair enough, now back to your issue.
[21:09] <xxmmaann> yes
[21:09] <patrycja> m
[21:09] <duvel> Hey guys. Just installed G19d on my Ubuntu 10.04 LTS partition and the only thing it's done is put the Linux penguin mascot on the LCD with "G19Daemon" underneath it. Is there any other sort of settings or configurations that I can use to get full or close to full functionality out of the keyboard? There was no response in the #LG4L channel that's why I'm asking here. Thank you in advance!
[21:10] <centuryon> Jeruvy: I think I am straight with apt-get purge pulseaudio*
[21:10] <Dr_Willis> g19? golly i feel left out i just got a G15
[21:10] <pfifo> xxmmaann, can you take a sceenshot thats the same as mine?
[21:10] <xxmmaann> but i can modifi panning only not display size
[21:10] <Guest35651> Hello, I just installed Fedora alongside Ubuntu but I lost Ubuntu now. The Fedora install has akernel panic and I am on a Fedaora 15 Live cd. I have installed grub on sda. Can anyone help me get Ubunntu back?
[21:10] <Dr_Willis> duvel:  for the g15 there was a few packages i installed.. and a service/command i ran as part of my X session to get a clock and other things on the keyboard.
[21:10] <Dr_Willis> !g15
[21:11] <yeats> Guest35651: grub isn't giving you the choice to boot into Ubuntu?
[21:11] <duvel> i have the g19
[21:11] <Dr_Willis> duvel:  i think there was a wiki or forim theread for the thing. but its been a while
[21:11] <Dr_Willis> duvel:  i imagine its teh same process.
[21:11] <duvel> Ah, i see.
[21:11] <Guest35651> yeats, no, just a single fedora option.
[21:11] <xxmmaann>  pfifo: http://img202.imageshack.us/i/capturecran2a.png/
[21:12] <yeats> Guest35651: Fedora uses "Other" for other OSs... can you select Other?
[21:12] <cypha`> i have a ridiculous question
[21:12] <cypha`> how do I run postgresql?
[21:12] <Guest35651> I did select other.
[21:12] <cypha`> i have it installed
[21:12] <anternat> lspci -v | less
[21:12] <anternat>  shows my sound card is identified but there s no sound (10.04 lts)
[21:12] <Guest35651> yeats, what do you mean? where?
[21:12] <vlt> cypha`: Then it should run already.
[21:12]  * yeats notes that he has not dual booted Fedora/Ubuntu but has done so with F15/Win7
[21:12] <xxmmaann> its ok?
[21:12] <pfifo> xxmmaann, thats a rather  crappy shot. anyway change panning to "640x480" and then hit apply
[21:12] <yeats> Guest35651: in GRUB
[21:12] <Dr_Willis> duvel:  i really liked the g15. buy the lettering has rubbed off. makes me leary to buy another G* keyboard. :()
[21:12] <cypha`> vlt how would I create a user?
[21:12] <Guest35651> yeats, there is no other. Only fedora
[21:13] <rajvi> hello all my bluetooth stopped working on Ubuntu 10.10 .. all i remember to install a lot of packages to change the UI
[21:13] <cypha`> vlt, shouldn't it ask me to login or something?
[21:13] <vlt> cypha`: Connect to it as root user and create others.
[21:13] <yeats> Guest35651: okay - worth a shot ;-)
[21:13] <Guest35651> yeats, I think I need to reinstall grub.
[21:13] <cypha`> vlt, how?
[21:13] <duvel> Dr_Willis: I've had my g19 for 1 year now, letters aren't rubbing off. That's exactly why I decided not to purchase the G15 and spend the extra money on this one :)
[21:13] <thedude1> i want to use an external dvd drive, i plug it in, it shows up in lsusb as "13fd:150f Initio Corporation" and that's it. no mounting or anything. how do i get it working
[21:13] <vlt> cypha`: With any postgresql client?
[21:13] <yeats> Guest35651: that's the direction I would go
[21:13] <jnlsnl_> whats ambiance in unity called ?
[21:13] <Dr_Willis> duvel:  when i got this one there was no others. :) it dident even have linux support at the time. I had to compile new packages and things. heh.
[21:13] <xxmmaann> pfifo: i can change panning but i cant change the resolution
[21:13] <cypha`> vlt, yeah
[21:14] <xxmmaann> i want enter a higher value
[21:14] <cypha`> vlt postgres 8.4
[21:14] <duvel> Ugh, I wish this thing worked. Very frustrating.
[21:14] <pfifo> xxmmaann, but
 i can change the reesolution but i have this problem http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvbfmLIRSlU
[21:14] <xxmmaann> at resolution 1360x768
[21:14] <vlt> cypha`: "With any postgresql client?" wasn't actually a question ;-)
[21:14] <cypha`> vlt, ok, well, honestly, i'm coming from windows, which had a gui interface
[21:15] <Guest35651> can anyone help me save my ubuntu install?
[21:15] <cypha`> i'm not used to doing this by CL
[21:15] <cypha`> how do I get a prompt that's for the database?
[21:15] <vlt> Guest35651: Define "save".
[21:15] <KM0201> Guest35651: when in doubt whack it out.
[21:15] <xxmmaann>  pfifo: i want set resolution at 1360x 768 but i have only 2 option 600x400 and 320x240
[21:15] <yeats> cypha: 'psql <databasename>
[21:15] <Guest35651> vlt, cant access it after installing fedora 15 as a dual boot. My partiton is ok, but can't get it.
[21:16] <Kus> is there a way, to change the apparence theme form terminal?
[21:16] <yeats> cypha: you can also install pgadmin3
[21:16] <pfifo> xxmmaann, pastebin your xorg.conf file
[21:16] <yeats> !info pgadmin3
[21:16] <cypha> yeats, i'm on ubuntu server
[21:16] <rajvi> hello all my bluetooth does not respond on Ubuntu 10.10 nothing happens when i hit it to turn in on :(
[21:16] <vlt> cypha`: I have never used pgsql, but I assume there's a client shipped with it.
[21:16] <yeats> cypha: psql is the command line client
[21:16] <Guest35651> vlt, I can chroot to it from a live environment.
[21:16] <Guest35651> u
[21:17] <vlt> Guest35651: Using grub?
[21:17] <Guest35651> vlt, no, with the fedora live cd
[21:17] <yeats> cypha: if you're connecting from a Linux machine (or Windows with X installed) you can do 'ssh -XC user@host' and use pgadmin3 anyway
[21:17] <vlt> Guest35651: What happens when booting from hd?
[21:18] <xxmmaann> pfifo: http://pastebin.com/fk4w4G5L
[21:18] <cypha> yeats, I'm already ssh'd in
[21:18] <Guest35651> vlt, I get a single boot option: fedora, and if I select it I get a kernel panic.
[21:18] <cypha> I have ubuntu server running on a vbox
[21:18] <yeats> cypha: are you on a Linux box?
[21:18] <cypha> locally
[21:18] <cypha> and i am ssh'd in with putty
[21:18] <yeats> cypha: on Windows?
[21:18] <cypha> yup
[21:19] <cypha> but I don't use windows for anything really, everything is done thru putty
[21:19] <pfifo> xxmmaann, use this xorg.conf instead http://pastebin.com/M2jvjhqg
[21:19] <Kus> How to run Appearance Preferences from terminal?
[21:19] <yeats> cypha: have you created any databases yet?
[21:19] <cypha> yeats, nope
[21:19] <thedude1> my  external dvd drive only shows up in lsusb but nowhere else. how do i get it working
[21:20] <yeats> cypha: I highly recommend the online postgresql docs
[21:20] <vlt> Guest35651: Is this a GRUB menu?
[21:20] <Guest35651> vlt, no
[21:20] <yeats> cypha: but you should be able to 'sudo su postgres' and 'createdb <databasename>' to get started
[21:20] <vlt> Guest35651: What is it?
[21:21] <Guest35651> vlt, a fedora live cd
[21:21] <cypha> yeats, what's sudo su vs just sudo?
[21:21] <anternat> aplay -l ---> no sound card found ??? what should i do?
[21:21] <matthew_sixpiece> need help fixing my drivers for my cd drive
[21:21] <VectorX> is there a way to login to ubuntu so you dont have to keep using sudo to run commands ?
[21:22] <amarcolino> how would I go about creating an ssha password?
[21:22] <yeats> cypha: 'sudo su' means "as root, switch user"
[21:22] <cypha> yeats, ohh, that worked
[21:22] <cypha> so is that the way I'll always get into postgres?
[21:22] <yeats> cypha: it's a way to change users without needing to know their password (or if passwords are not configured, as in postgres's case)
[21:22] <yeats> cypha: that's the way I do it ;-)
[21:23] <cypha> yeats, thanks, that's great
[21:23] <vlt> Guest35651: When booting from hd you get a Fedora live CD menu?!?
[21:23] <pfifo> VectorX, yes, but enabling the root account is not supported
[21:23] <anternat> whats the command for checking newl installed hardware ?
[21:23] <hardcampa> enabling the root command is just su to root and make a password for roott.
[21:23] <hardcampa> so to speak
[21:23] <VectorX> pfifo how do you do that
[21:23] <xxmmaann>  pfifo: i pasted that in xorg conf file but the same problem
[21:23] <guntbert> cypha: yeats: sudo su is NOT recommended, use sudo -i instead to get a root shell
[21:23] <Flannel> hardcampa: Please don't recommend that here.  Thanks.
[21:23] <Guest35651> vlt, no, I get a fedora entry which is installed on the hdd
[21:23] <pfifo> xxmmaann, reboot
[21:23] <guntbert> !boroot | hardcampa
[21:24] <guntbert> !noroot | hardcampa
[21:24] <mrdeb> where is cpu core control in? is it the kernel
[21:24] <hardcampa> got it
[21:24] <hardcampa> =)
[21:24] <yeats> cypha: listen to guntbert - his suggestion is definitely best practice
[21:24] <yeats> guntbert: thanks
[21:24] <cypha> what's bad about sudo su guntbert?
[21:24] <guntbert> yeats: :)
[21:24]  * yeats takes shortcuts sometimes
[21:25] <MadDecent> Anyone know any good applications that will auto-mount NAS drives? Samba isnt working for me.. I have a WD My Book Live 3TB
[21:25] <hardcampa> I guess it all depends on how much work you do as an admin.
[21:25] <pfifo> VectorX, you really dont need to run as root, why dont you setup sudo to not ask for a password instead, that will atleast afford a bit of protection for accidents
[21:25] <guntbert> cypha: it doesn't set your environment correctly, but you will rarely need either, sudo is enough in most cases
[21:26] <VectorX> pfifo yes that is what i am asking, how do you do that
[21:26] <yeats> guntbert: in this case, it's changing to a user that does not have a login password, so
[21:26] <guntbert> hardcampa: not at all, if you *really* need a root shell use sudo -i
[21:26] <yeats> guntbert: sudo -i is probably the best way
[21:26] <hardcampa> guntbert for 20 years I've been doing fine without
[21:26] <xxmmaann> dont work
[21:26] <guntbert> !wfm | hardcampa
[21:26] <hardcampa> Doesn't matter it takes time to type sudo
[21:27] <hardcampa> but whatever leave this discussion
[21:27] <hardcampa> I got your point in the beginning
[21:27] <Pin> guys what do i do to restore my unity theme back to normal? My unity has no borders now. No X , no minimize, no buttons, no borders
[21:27] <pfifo> VectorX, this should explain it http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/no-password-for-sudo-442808/
[21:27] <hardcampa> II'ts a good point. Using sudo.. I agree. Especially if you're not used to the command line.
[21:27] <guntbert> yeats: you can sudo -u <thatotheruser> -i  in this case
[21:28] <yeats> guntbert: wow - I just learned something ;-)
[21:28] <guntbert> hardcampa: :)
[21:28] <VectorX> pfifo ty
[21:29] <pfifo> xxmmaann, im completly baffeled now. you need to reinstall. This is why using 3rd party software is bad, you never know what its going todo to your system
[21:29] <cypha> guntbert, how do I get back to the regular user?
[21:29] <cypha> after sudo su'ing or sudo -i postgres?
[21:29] <guntbert> cypha: type exit   ur just <ctrl>d
[21:29] <guntbert> *or
[21:29] <nexion-> if I do an install of unity with --no-install-recommends, would any required packages be missing?
[21:30] <nexion-> running compiz says: compiz (core) - Fatal: Couldn't open display
[21:30] <joel135> can I run 2 instances of X at the same time?
[21:30] <yeats> cypha: you can 'suspend' if you want to get back to it later, then 'fg' (foreground) to get back to the postgres session
[21:30] <pfifo> joel135, yes
[21:30] <cypha> guntbert, "sudo postgres" says "sudo: postgres: command not found
[21:30] <cypha> "
[21:30] <yeats> cypha: what are you trying to do?
[21:30] <guntbert> cypha: sudo -u postgres
[21:31] <cypha> -u does what?
[21:31] <guntbert> cypha: selects the user you want to be
[21:31] <thedude1> can anyone help me with my external dvd drive?
[21:31] <yeats> cypha: try doing 'sudo -u postgres -i' and see if that works (didn't for me on a debian sudo setup)
[21:32] <joel135> how do I, from a separate Ctrl+Alt+Fn, start gcalctool or something in :1?
[21:32] <cypha> sudo -u postgres doesn't work
[21:32] <pfifo> it would be sudo -su postgres
[21:32] <cypha> gave me this response http://dpaste.com/562550/
[21:33] <hardcampa> postgres is wierd imho. why can't psql ever work with the -U flag without you being the user to begin with...
[21:33] <ZykoticK9> joel135, you could run "gdmflexiserver" and get a new login window - note you need a second user to log in with!
[21:33] <snikker> hi, how can i replace "/* some variable text */"  with a blanc line using sed?
[21:34] <yeats> hardcampa: you have to configure the pg_hba.conf file to allow other users
[21:34] <yeats> cypha: do 'sudo -u postgres -i'
[21:34] <hardcampa> yeats.. mm but what I ment was how come, since I'm telling it I want to connect as the -U user witth a pasword..
[21:34] <cypha> yeats, that worked
[21:34] <pfifo> joel135, Im only going by what Ive read, and according to the Docs you can run multiple instances. However the implementation details are not something I know.
[21:34] <hardcampa> it seems like overkill.
[21:35] <cypha> yeats, so -i has to be after postgres ?
[21:35] <joel135> ok
[21:35] <yeats> cypha: yes
[21:35] <yeats> hardcampa: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/auth-pg-hba-conf.html will explain
[21:35] <cypha> yeats, k
[21:35] <pfifo> joel135>, what exactly are you tring todo?
[21:36] <thedude1> i can't get my external DVD drive mounted, any help?
[21:36] <jnlsnl_> Anyone know whats the name of the default menu icon on natty ?
[21:37] <yeats> thedude1: what have you tried?
 hi! do you need to acces your drive?
[21:37] <cypha> thanks guys :)
[21:37] <thedude1> tresfanatismos: i plugged it in, it spins, the LED lights up, and thats it
 try dmesg | tail
[21:38] <thedude1> tresfanatismos: it shows up in lsusb
[21:38] <yeats> cypha: sure - good luck!
[21:38] <cypha> :)
[21:38] <hardcampa> btw cypha use pgadmin3 to make life more comfortable with postgres otherwise.
[21:38] <pfifo> thedude1, is the a disk in the drive?
 it will show the kernel log. Devices found.
[21:38] <thedude1> pfifo: yes
[21:38] <cypha> hardcampa, i'm on CL
[21:39] <hardcampa> =/
[21:39] <thedude1> tresfanatismos: okay, but which is my drive
[21:40] <thedude1> tresfanatismos: here http://paste.ubuntu.com/637641/
[21:41] <yeats> cypha: also, if you're only using Windows for PuTTY, you're missing out on a better desktop experience, especially if you're mainly using it to admin linux ;-)
[21:41] <tresfanatismos> I will mount my dvd drive to see what you need look for.
[21:41] <pfifo> thedude1, unplug the drive, wait a few seconds, plug it back in, then pastebin the output of 'dmesg|tail -n50'
[21:41] <ttiicc> Im new with ubuntu/gnome/(unity and I can tell you that I hate keyring
[21:41] <Cerrdor> so I need some help ssh
[21:41] <bilz> hello. today my ubuntu (10.10) broke. I dn't know why, but the grub menu doesnt appear anymore when i turn on my laptop. I did install some updates bfore I last turned it off. now when i turn the laptop on, it doesnt get tot eh widnow to choose between ubuntu and windows, it just keeps restarting itself. any ideas
[21:41] <cypha> yeats, what do you mean?
[21:41] <ttiicc> is it possible to remove that shunk?
[21:41] <pfifo> thedude1, ok good enough
[21:41] <thedude1> pfifo: run dmesg before plugging in?
[21:41] <Cerrdor> when I try to ssh into my site i do ssh -v name@site and it just disconnects me
[21:42] <yeats> cypha: I mean that Ubuntu (or the Linux desktop of your choice) will have far more on-board sys-admin tools ;-)
[21:42] <pfifo> thedude1, is your drive externally powered?
[21:42] <cypha> yeats, the only reason i'm using putty, and not ubuntu server directly, is because COPY PASTE WON'T WORK with GPM and virtualbox's guest additions
 yes! dmesg after plug in!
[21:42] <thedude1> pfifo: via usb
[21:42] <q0_0p> what email clients do you guys use that integrates calendars?
[21:42] <cypha> yeats, I can do everything and anything thru SSH though
[21:42] <guntbert> Cerrdor: did you install sshd on the server?
[21:42] <q0_0p> and has notifications
[21:43] <mongy> <3 ssh
[21:43] <tresfanatismos> cypha! I guess the drive is  externally powered because he told the drive spins, the LED turn on!
[21:43] <pfifo> thedude1, is it plugged into a powered USB port? Is that port providing enough power? No other devices sapping all the power?
[21:43] <Cerrdor> yah
[21:43] <Cerrdor> I think I got it figured now
[21:43] <Cerrdor> but how do I generate a key to authenticate to the server?
[21:43] <bilz> hello. today my ubuntu (10.10) broke. I dn't know why, but the grub menu doesnt appear anymore when i turn on my laptop. I did install some updates bfore I last turned it off. now when i turn the laptop on, it doesnt get tot eh widnow to choose between ubuntu and windows, it just keeps restarting itself. any ideas
[21:44] <ortsvorsteher> Cerrdor, try ssh-keygen.
[21:44] <thedude1> i have only 2 ports and have no idea if they are powered or not (Lenovo S10) - the drive has 2 usb cords, one for data and one for power. nothing else connected.
[21:44] <ezrtyuiop> hello there i try to install cacti-cactid this is error i got :  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[21:44] <ortsvorsteher> Cerrdor, if you connect first to your server, the server key will be automatic generated.
[21:44] <yeats> cypha: you can also install pgadmin3 on Windows and connect to the VM through that
[21:45] <guntbert> Cerrdor: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH
[21:45] <pfifo> thedude1, try using an external power source, looking at your dmesg it appears to be a power problem.
[21:45] <thedude1> pfifo: looks good http://paste.ubuntu.com/637643/
[21:45] <yeats> cypha: it will require you to edit both the /etc/postgresql/8.4/main/postgresql.conf and /etc/postgresql/8.4/main/pg_hba.conf files to allow the connection, though
[21:45] <tresfanatismos> Hi, everyone! Is possible to talk in private in this channel?
[21:46] <guntbert> !pm | tresfanatismos
[21:46] <frybye> tresfanatismos: irc has a /msg command but that does not say that x or y person want to be getting your /msg x  or /msg y messages...
[21:46] <cypha> yeats, seems more complicated with editing those files
[21:47] <cypha> i should learn some command line commands anyway for now...it's just a devel server and db anyway
[21:47] <tresfanatismos> thanks  for replies!
[21:47] <ezrtyuiop> hello there i try to install cacti-cactid this is error i got :  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[21:48] <ezrtyuiop> what to do ?
[21:48] <thedude1> pfifo: i don't have an external power source
[21:48] <yeats> cypha: it would be a small change in each... (sounds complicated, but is relatively straightforward in the Linux conf file universe ;-))
[21:48] <guntbert> !repeat | ezrtyuiop
[21:49] <pfifo> thedude1, can you verify that the drive work with the laptop via say windows or another distro?
[21:49] <cypha> yeats, I will return once I get a grasp of CL postgres and ask you about that again, promise :)
[21:50] <bilz> hello. today my ubuntu (10.10) broke. I dn't know why, but the grub menu doesnt appear anymore when i turn on my laptop. I did install some updates bfore I last turned it off. now when i turn the laptop on, it doesnt get tot eh widnow to choose between ubuntu and windows, it just keeps restarting itself. any ideas
[21:50] <flux242> hi, is there any way to find out how a block device is formatted without installing fdisk? /sys/block/... doesn't seem to be a help here
[21:50] <thedude1> pfifo: i only know about the drive itself, it worked well in another laptop. that one is broken now and i bought an external case for the drive to use it with my netbook. I once tried to use it with a windows machine with the same results as here now...
[21:50] <guntbert> flux242: fdisk should be installed
[21:50] <tresfanatismos> i don't intend to take the information only for me. i am not american and i don read so fast. So, talk in private will help me and other person. Sometimes i can help too.
[21:51] <flux242> imagine fdisk is not installed
[21:51] <KM0201> flux242: sure it is.
[21:51] <guntbert> tresfanatismos: you can tell your client to ignore the join/part messages
[21:51] <ikonia> flux242: fdisk is on ubuntu by default, have you removed it ?
[21:51] <Traintop> flux242: too bad ;...
[21:51] <yeats> cypha: understood ;-)
[21:51] <flux242> just imagine
[21:51] <pfifo> thedude1, so this is an internal dvd drive, in an enclosure, thats completly usb powered?
[21:51] <tresfanatismos> guntbert: my client is xchat.
[21:52] <thedude1> pfifo: exactly
[21:52] <ikonia> flux242: fdisk is on ubuntu by default, have you removed it ?
[21:52] <tresfanatismos> guntbert: did I answer your question?
[21:52] <guntbert> tresfanatismos: right click on the channel tab, select settings/hide...
[21:52] <pfifo> thedude1, you should get an external usb power cord.
[21:52] <Traintop> flux242: imagine you remove the tires from your car; how could you drive it somewhere?
[21:53] <flux242> frack
[21:53] <thedude1> pfifo: so you tell me the drive won't work powered only by the 2 USB ports?
[21:54] <TheZanke> anyone know if it is possible to get the BisonCam in an alienware m9750 working on ubuntu?
[21:54] <pfifo> thedude1, try switching the the ports your using, only one may be powered, if you only need one power source for the drive you might be ok
[21:55] <Guest14500> quit
[21:55] <Guest14500> exit
[21:55] <ikonia> TheZanke: investigate it's generic linux compatability then we can progress it
[21:55] <duvel> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5S-a4Ex5Rw
[21:55] <ikonia> duvel: why have you posted that ?
[21:55] <ezrtyuiop> hello there i try to install cacti-cactid this is error i got :  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)`
[21:55] <tresfanatismos> guntbert: First time using IRC. I didn find what you order me.
[21:55] <TheZanke> ikonia, its a very undocumented camera... i cant find anything on it specifically besides vista drivers :(
[21:56] <bilz> hello. today my ubuntu (10.10) broke. I dn't know why, but the grub menu doesnt appear anymore when i turn on my laptop. I did install some updates bfore I last turned it off. now when i turn the laptop on, it doesnt get tot eh widnow to choose between ubuntu and windows, it just keeps restarting itself. any ideas
[21:56] <duvel> ikonia, sorry - wrong channel LOL.
[21:56] <HidekiAI> o
[21:56] <ikonia> duvel: what channel was it meant for ?
[21:56] <thedude1> pfifo: it shows the same reaction with either combination of ports and cables, also if i only use the data cable or the power cable
[21:56] <duvel> I have multiple networks open, it was meant for a different network. LOL
[21:56] <pfifo> ##youtube
[21:57] <guntbert> tresfanatismos: below the field where you are typing your text there are "tabs" for every channel, right-click on one
[21:58] <pfifo> thedude1, it probably wants power from both, and your system can only give 1. I know my eeepc has 3 ports, but only 1 is powered, I had to get a powered usb HUB for it.
[21:59] <thedude1> can i find out somehow if my Lenovo IdeaPad S10 has a powered port? googling didnt help much
[21:59] <pfifo> thedude1, check the local thrift stores, alot of cell phones provide a wall plug that will chagre the phone via a usb port
[22:00] <thedude1> pfifo: i know, i even have one lying around from my old broken ipod, lets see if i can find it
[22:00] <pfifo> thedude1, if you have 2 devices that require power you can do a bit of testing to see what combinations work
[22:02] <__sephiroth> why doesnt' root create logs for what it did?
[22:02] <thedude1> pfifo: i can plug in a HDD that works with 1 port
[22:02] <pfifo> __sephiroth, what are you trying to get logged?
[22:03] <guntbert> __sephiroth: sudo does create logs ...
[22:03] <pfifo> thedude1, will it work on both ports or just 1
[22:03] <thedude1> it definitely worked on one
[22:04] <__sephiroth> su doesn’t record the commands executed as
[22:04] <__sephiroth> root, but it does create a log entry that states who became root and when.
[22:04] <thedude1> and it works on the other as well
[22:04] <pfifo> __sephiroth,  /root/.bash_history is available too
[22:04] <guntbert> __sephiroth: one more reason not to use su but always sudo
[22:05] <bbluz> hi folks
[22:06] <pfifo> thedude1, I guess now find another powered device and see if both work. But really this test is a bit flawed due to both devices could still use less overall power than the dvd drive :)

[22:08] <victorhugo289> Hi
[22:08] <pdg1> i'm trying to find some more information about how wubu works
[22:09] <pdg1> wubi*
[22:09] <bbluz> I am having issues configuring bind9 on Ubuntu Natty,I have used the guide from the HowTo on the official ubuntu site and have thoroughly read and tried several other blogs and guides and resources but still no luck. If anyone has a working bind9 server running here I'd appreciate some help.. thanks
[22:09] <victorhugo289> Does anybody know how to convert .NRG to .ISO? I have Iso Master and Acetone but I don't remember how to convert them?
[22:09] <dahlberg> hi all, having no sound from flash in firefox after fresh 11.04 install. anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?
[22:09] <ikonia> bbluz: just ask the question
[22:11] <bbluz> ok ikona, I have a machine on my network named "gallery" which hosts an apache server. I want its named to be resolved so other machines on the network can reach http://gallery from a web browser
[22:11] <ikonia> bbluz: ok ? so what's the problem
[22:11] <dahlberg> hi all, having no sound from flash in firefox after fresh 11.04 install. anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?

[22:12] <thedude1> pfifo: maybe the drive gets enough power if the notebook is plugged in?
[22:12] <victorhugo289> :D
[22:12] <Pwnna> Does anyone know how I can figure out what was using Swap to 100% (3.8GB) prior to the last reboot?
[22:12] <pfifo> thedude1, does it worked plugged in?
[22:13] <Pwnna> 100% swap is used, and i can't even move my cursor >.>
[22:13] <bbluz> so I have an ubuntu router which will serve DNS requests as well. I tried to configure it but when I try to ping the host called gallery from another machine it says gallery : unknown host. I have never configured a DNS service before I am pretty rubbish in that area.
[22:13] <bbluz> basically
[22:13] <thedude1> pfifo: it shows the same reaction
[22:13] <bbluz> the dns server doesn't resolve names
[22:14] <qin> Pwnna: Did you hibernate?
[22:14] <Pwnna> qin: nope
[22:14] <Pwnna> qin: i suspect it's xchat, but i can't confirm
[22:14] <jetienne__> what is the good command line to open a url from a terminal ? something independant from the browser
[22:14] <ikonia> bbluz: ok - so have you created a zone file for the zone you want to serve ?
[22:14] <Pwnna> anyway to extract the swap data via dd or something?
[22:15] <qin> Pwnna: Pointless.
[22:15] <bbluz> yes ikona, I have done that
[22:15] <ikonia> bbluz: what domain is the zone file for ?
[22:15] <Pwnna> qin: so how can I, otherwise, find the responsible application?
[22:16] <bbluz> ikonia: linux.lan
[22:16] <pfifo> bbluz, pastebin the output of 'dig gallery'
[22:16] <ikonia> bbluz: ok, so can you resolve gallery.linux.lan ?
[22:16] <qin> Pwnna: Just observe io while system running, and memory, iftop, htop
[22:16] <pdg1> i don't understand why the only way i can use Wubi is from the CDrom. I have a usb that boots properly but i can't use it to install with wubi
[22:16] <patyx7> Has anyone had any problems using iBus in Flash?
[22:17] <patyx7> I can't seem to type Japanese or Chinese in any flash application

[22:18] <bbluz> ikonia: no I can't, it says unknown host
[22:18] <ikonia> bbluz: can you resolve gallery.linux.lan ?
[22:19] <ikonia> bbluz: on the router, can you do "nslookup gallery.linux.lan"
[22:19] <ikonia> bbluz: also what name servers are the clients set to use ?
[22:19] <loldrup> join #aytana
[22:19] <loldrup> crap
[22:19] <Pwnna> qin: it's been happening everyday. idk which is responsible >.>, and when the thing reaches full, the HDD bandwidth gets taken and I can barely use any UI, text or graphical.
[22:20] <bbluz> ikonia: nslookup gallery.linux.lan results in : SERVFAIL
[22:20] <ikonia> bbluz: what dns server is it trying to use
[22:21] <ikonia> bbluz: eg: is it trying to use <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[22:21] <pfifo> Pwnna, keep an eye on how much memory your programs are using
[22:21] <Pwnna> pfifo: when i notice it's usually too late..
[22:21] <Pwnna> >.>
[22:21] <bbluz> ikonia: not the loopback address but its own address, <IP_ADDRESS> - the router, which is also the DNS server
[22:21] <qin> Pwnna: First, check logs, second swapoff to see how will behave system
[22:21] <Pwnna> hmn
[22:21] <Pwnna> logs
[22:21] <pfifo> Pwnna, keep an eye on dosent mean to start looking when the problem happens ;)
[22:22] <bbluz> my router is an ubuntu machine too, and its also my DNS server on my Lan
[22:22] <qin> Pwnna: /var/log/ messages auth.log syslog
[22:22] <ikonia> bbluz: ok, that's fine, so on <IP_ADDRESS> can you do nslookup "gallery.linux.lan" ?

[22:41] <Pwnna> pfifo: no.
[22:41] <Pwnna> it's not really active.
[22:41] <Pwnna> lol
[22:41] <potatoes_> io: when I select option 1, it says there's no package manager installed...
[22:41] <ikonia> bbluz: look at /etc/bind/named.conf
[22:41] <io> potatoes_: ok so what's your problem? more details are required on what you actually need help with
[22:41] <Pwnna> only localhost, and i wasn't using it
[22:42] <pfifo> maybe its a syn flood
[22:42] <ikonia> bbluz: /etc/bind/named.conf.options and /etc/bind/named.conf.local
[22:42] <io> potatoes_: also see the links that ubottu posted
[22:42] <ikonia> bbluz: ubuntu uses /etc/bind/$files not /etc/$files as non-ubuntu machines do
[22:42] <potatoes_> io: alright!
[22:42] <ikonia> bbluz: that could be the main problem, the config files are supposed to be in /etc/bind on ubuntu, not /etc
[22:43] <Pwnna> pfifo: hm
[22:43] <bbluz> ikonia: my files are in /etc/bind
[22:43] <Pwnna> pfifo: i'm behind a NAT
[22:43] <rizzuh_laptop> vlt, I'm interested in one already writer by someone else, as my bash skills are poor.
[22:43] <pfifo> Pwnna, i was joking anyway
[22:43] <ikonia> bbluz: look at named.conf.local and named.conf.options then
[22:43] <Pwnna> lol
[22:44] <vlt> rizzuh_laptop: That depends heavily on the tasks the script should do.
[22:44] <Pwnna> Weird error
[22:44] <Pwnna> idk how to find out if this happens again, but i strongly suspect xchat
[22:44] <bbluz> ikonia: yes, I am going to pastebin them just so you can have a look and maybe find something of interest.. cheers
[22:44] <Pwnna> it's either, xchat, emesene, chrome, or terminal
[22:44] <Cydd> its your username
[22:44] <marcc> hi, I wish to upgrade the linux kernel using http://www.ubuntu-corner.com/2011/06/upgrade-linux-kernel-in-ubuntu-11-04-to-2-6-39-0/ but the 2.6.39 packages don't show up in apt-cache. What can i do?
[22:44] <Cydd> "pwna"
[22:44] <rizzuh_laptop> vlt, restore .sql files into an existing database, from a directory. All of them.
[22:44] <Pwnna> as those are apps opened everytime this happens
[22:44] <Pwnna> dropbox..
[22:44] <pfifo> Pwnna, just monitor your memory usage, perhaps setup a cronjob to log the output of 'ps aux' into a file every couple minutes
[22:45] <Pwnna> maybe
[22:45] <vlt> rizzuh_laptop: bash is often pretty plain english. So I think if you can phrase the task your script is nearly written ;-)
[22:45] <Pwnna> is there a way to warn me
[22:45] <Pwnna> if my swap gets > 80%
[22:45] <rizzuh_laptop> vlt, playing with xargs and find I couldn't get the mysql or mysqlinmport clients to restore the files :<
[22:45] <potatoes_> io: now that I read that link on remastering, I think it might not be quite what I want - because I don't have a concrete list of all the apps I want to add/remove - basically, what I'm looking for is a super 'slim' version of Ubuntu that just has the bare minimum of apps, so that I can then go on to add apps on an as needed basis
[22:45] <bfh198> Hello, looking to find out how to do the following:
[22:45] <bfh198> Basicly This is what i want to accomplish the with an example:
[22:45] <bfh198> --on a sinlge monitor you can dock programs on both sides, but it seems on
[22:45] <bfh198> dual screens you can only dock once on each monitor, anyway to change this
[22:45] <bfh198> so i can dock x4 times ?
[22:46] <FloodBot1> bfh198: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:46] <vlt> Pwnna: You could use nagios for monitoring nearly everything on your machines.
[22:46] <Pwnna> k
[22:46] <Pwnna> i'll take a look into it in a sec
[22:46] <vlt> Pwnna: Just write a test (using the command "free" for example) and set notifications in nagios.
[22:47] <Pwnna> kay
[22:47] <Pwnna> right now i gotta get this thing to pass my unittest
[22:47] <io> potatoes_: ubuntu-server with a GUI? :-)
[22:47] <vlt> rizzuh_laptop: I encourage you to exactly do that.
[22:47] <Pwnna> anyone use xdebug here?
[22:47] <rizzuh_laptop> vlt, I tried and failed.
[22:48] <bbluz> ikonia: actually there is nothing more in my files than the stuff you already know about my config
[22:48] <vlt> rizzuh_laptop: Let's see what you have so far.
[22:48] <io> potatoes_: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/minimal
[22:48] <bbluz> ikonia: I am going to read everything again from the top
[22:48] <potatoes_> io: ahh! let me check that out :)
[22:48] <io> potatoes_: it's already been done numerous times so I wouldn't suggest doing something that has already been done, unless you really need too
[22:48] <bbluz> ikonia: thanks very much for your time mate, much appreciated :)
[22:49] <potatoes_> io: yeah, I see what you mean.
[22:49] <rizzuh_laptop> vlt, find . -type f -exec mysqlimport --user=USER --password=PASS world '{}' \;
[22:49] <beginner> i was wondering
[22:49] <ikonia> bbluz: sure, no problem. Shout if your unsure about anything
[22:49] <beginner> whats the best filesystem for Ubuntu?
[22:49] <io> potatoes_: you can still use the minimal setup as a base, install packages and then re-create your own flavour of ubuntu
[22:49] <bbluz> ikonia: will do, thanks :)
[22:49] <Pwnna> ext4?
[22:49] <Pwnna> beginner: just use ext4
[22:49] <beginner> is it okay if i use NTFS?
[22:49] <vlt> rizzuh_laptop: What does the error msg look like?
[22:50] <potatoes_> io: sweet, I think this is exactly what I was looking for
[22:50] <io> potatoes_: also this link for the download https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[22:50] <Pwnna> beginner: you asked for the "best"
[22:50] <rizzuh_laptop> vlt, find . -type f | xargs -0 | cat | mysqlimport -uUSER -pPASS world # as well, same problem. Nothing gets imported (the "script" finishes instantly), or mysqlimport saying access denied (user/pass are ok).
[22:50] <tdignan> beginner: ntfs is a lousy filesystem. it's fragmented, ffs.
[22:50] <beginner> okay
[22:50] <potatoes_> io: Nice, thanks a lot for this suggestion!
[22:50] <beginner> thank you
[22:50] <io> potatoes_: no problem
[22:50] <tdignan> use ext3/4
[22:51] <aLekZ> hii
[22:51]  * pfifo can get even slimmer than the minimial CD
[22:51] <aLekZ> holaa
[22:52] <aLekZ> soi nuevo aki necesito ayuda
[22:52] <vlt> rizzuh_laptop: I wouldn't use xargs here because you rather want separate commands to be executed here.
[22:52] <pfifo> tdignan, ext is fragmented as well
[22:53] <pfifo> except it fragments files in such a way as to speed up access time
[22:53] <vlt> rizzuh_laptop: Are you sure mysqlimport is the right tool?
[22:53] <nimbiotics> is there any way to tweak wifi reception in my laptop with ubuntu 11.04?? TIA!
[22:53] <rizzuh_laptop> vlt, not at all lol.
[22:53] <Viking667> anyone know why on earth removing the fglrx out of natty breaks the system somewhat?
[22:54] <Viking667> the symptoms are: boot up, kernel loads, xorg loads, then both my screens switch off.
[22:54] <vlt> rizzuh_laptop: "man mysqlimport" should tell you.
[22:54] <Viking667> ... meaning I have to ssh in to fix Xorg. I had to remove the xorg.conf to get the GUI to work again.
[22:55] <Viking667> oh, and when I try adding fglrx to the mix, apt-get wants to REMOVE about a hundred packages, x/kde/gnome-related
[22:55] <rizzuh_laptop> vlt, apparently it is made to do this exact same task. But I need to run it for all the files in a directory. Running it multiple times manually, or typing all the file names on the command line manually (even with tab completion) is time-consuming and error-prone.
[22:56] <Viking667> rizzuh_laptop: what's the question?
[22:56] <kdelinux> I'm experiencing random slowdowns with Kubuntu 11.04. It seems that everytime the system load is high (and the CPU runs at max 2200 MHz) the processor switches to 550 MHz for a while, and then goes back to normal. Does anyone know how to prevent this?
[22:56] <vlt> rizzuh_laptop: Sure. When running it once, manually, does it do what it should do?
[22:56] <rizzuh_laptop> Viking667, How do I restore a bunch of MySQL sql dumps into an existing database? They're all prefixed by date and number, in the order to be applied. A bash script or something similar would be great.
[22:56] <pfifo> kdelinux, perhaps a heat problem?
[22:56] <rizzuh_laptop> vlt, yeah.
[22:57] <tdignan> pfifo: how come i never have to defrag? is it because it's done automatically?
[22:57] <Viking667> does msql accept dumps to reimport from the command line? I can't remember.
[22:57] <vlt> rizzuh_laptop: Ok, have a look at the bash sytax "for file in *; do command ....; done"
[22:57] <Viking667> err, MySql rather
[22:57] <rizzuh_laptop> vlt, alright
[22:57] <Viking667> vlt: yah. What I would have suggested.
[22:57] <vlt> Viking667: Yes, it does.
[22:58] <wildbat> kdelinux: could it be overheating ?
[22:58] <Viking667> wildbat: my thought.
[22:58] <kdelinux> pfifo, my laptop is 47 degrees Celsius on average. I have only experiences these slowdowns since a few days, and the avg. temperature has not risen in those few days.
[22:58] <io> !defrag | tdignan
[22:58]  * Viking667 blinks...
[22:58] <kdelinux> But, I might give cleaning my laptop a try.
[22:58] <kdelinux> pfifo, wildbat thanks for the suggestion.
[22:58] <Viking667> ooo?
[22:58] <vlt> rizzuh_laptop: "file" is a variable name in this case and must be used as $file or even ${file} later.
[22:58] <Viking667> probably ${file}
[22:58] <pfifo> tdignan, defrag would slow ext down. it positions 2 files to where it can keep the read head in between them prepared to goto the one you want. (times thousands of files of course)
[22:59] <tdignan> Ah
[22:59] <DriversBroken>  Can anyone recommend a good disk imager?
[22:59] <vlt> DriversBroken: dd
[22:59] <Viking667> pfifo: that uh, doesn't sound quite right...
[22:59] <vlt> DriversBroken: ddrescue
[22:59] <tdignan> so it's just allowed to be fragmented, because it makes more sense the way ext does the reads
[22:59] <mobodo> anybody else having trouble with their UPC not being detected by apcupsd even though it lists find with lsusb?
[22:59] <tdignan> whereas ntfs gets faster if you defrag it
[22:59] <Viking667> a certain degree of fragmentation is acceptable
[23:00] <mobodo> it was working fine before 11.04 I believe
[23:00] <pfifo> Viking667, its not exactly what it dose, but good enough lames description
[23:00] <Viking667> so, nobody knows what the hell I'm on about?
[23:01] <vlt> rizzuh_laptop: Another hint: Better use "${file}" (with quotes) in case your filenames contain spaces.
[23:01] <Viking667> (re Xorg/fglrx)
[23:01] <rizzuh_laptop> vlt, they don't, but thanks for the help.
[23:01] <pfifo> Viking667, the whole thing is fragmented in a manner that reduces access time on a multi user environment. The system begins to fail at 80% capacity for ext2
[23:01] <JusticeZero> Hey, I need to be walked through a security issue if anyone has a minute. I want to set a program in a directory that I want to run up so that it can't accidentally get loose and do anything annoying.
[23:01] <tdignan> JusticeZero: chroot
[23:02] <JusticeZero> Can you be more specific?
[23:02] <tdignan> google chroot jail
[23:02] <Viking667> the one limitation I could never really get around is the fact that you couldn't ever use / in a filename, i.e. "Sales sheet for 7/6/2003."
 But dying sucks more.
[23:04] <dr_Willis> but if you are wanting that locked down an      app thers apparmour also. if i rember           the name right
[23:04] <Viking667> apparmor
[23:04] <JusticeZero> That looks like it would work, but I don't know how to set it up.
[23:04] <tdignan> Viking667: hmm, I'm not sure what happens after I die yet
[23:05] <tdignan> but I'm sure the process of dying, will be miserable.
[23:05] <Viking667> I rather hope not. I'd like to go, peacefully in my sleep...
[23:05] <Viking667> ... just not yet.
[23:05] <tdignan> It can happen, that is how my mom died.
[23:05] <pfifo> JusticeZero, pop in a live CD
[23:06] <Viking667> ring ring... hi, I'm out for like, an eternity. Get hold of my family ... bye.
[23:06] <JusticeZero> don't have one at the moment.. :/
[23:06] <TMechanic> guys getdeb is down right?
[23:06] <Viking667> "getdeb"?
[23:06] <tdignan> apt-get?
[23:07] <dr_Willis> getdeb website and repos
[23:07] <DriversBroken> JusticeZero, which app is it?
[23:07] <bob12603> I am also unable to get to archive.getdeb.net -- has been down for at least 10 hours for me.
[23:07] <dr_Willis> unoffical things ;)
[23:07] <Viking667> getdeb down for me too.
[23:07] <Viking667> "server unreachabl"
[23:07] <Viking667> e
[23:07] <JusticeZero> Trying to run a LambdaMOO server to tinker on. Last time I ran it, the whole machine froze up for reasons unclear.
[23:08] <pfifo> JusticeZero, then type 'sudo mkdir chroot && sudo debootstrap oneiric chroot'
[23:08] <nimbiotics> is there any way to tweak wifi reception in my laptop with ubuntu 11.04?? TIA!
[23:08] <Viking667> packet tracing for getdeb stops dead at te2-0.cr2.lax1.us.packetexchange.net
[23:08] <dr_Willis> JusticeZero:  may be easier to       use it in vbox
[23:08] <tdignan> nimbiotics: try changing channel, try relocating laptop physically.
[23:09] <JusticeZero> vbox?
[23:09] <tonytraductor> I can't ssh IN to the machine I' m on, remotely. (I can ssh to localhost when I'm here with physical access). netstat says listening on port 22, and sshd is running., but when I try to ssh IN I get "connection refused"
[23:09] <tdignan> a microwave can kill a wifi connection pretty fast, for instance.
[23:09] <tonytraductor> currently, I'm using irssi on my home machine in another city to be here, so, I can ssh OUT.
[23:09] <dr_Willis> or some other virtual machine
[23:09] <pfifo> JusticeZero, virtualbox-ose is another good option, it will run a livecd
[23:09] <nimbiotics> tdignan: thx
[23:09] <Viking667> tonytraductor: checked out the Listen directive in sshd_config yet?
[23:09] <dork> dr_Willis: freaking speakers are blown imo
[23:09] <tdignan> try to have your computer or laptop plugged into something that isn't a cluster**** of wires
[23:10] <tonytraductor> ok, where is the sshd config? is it names " sshd.config"? (that would make it easy to find)
[23:10] <tdignan> interference is a big problem
[23:10] <Viking667> err, sorry, that was meant to be ListenAddress
[23:10] <fizyplankton> would it be possible to install lucid to a cd? my friend who lives on the other side of the country is staying with us for a few weeks, and he knows that im such a linux whore, and jokes about how i should put linux om it (hey alex, see that orange over there? put linux on it). so to get back at him, i was planning a little practical joke. i was gonna change the boot order on his machine and throw a lucid disc in there, b
[23:10] <dr_Willis> dork   bummer. hope its under warrwnty
[23:10] <TheZanke> whered the administrator tools menu get moved to on the new ui?
[23:10] <tonytraductor> found it, says listen port 22 (and netstat also indicates that machine is listning on 22)
[23:11]  * pfifo installed linux on an orange once. It was tangy
[23:11] <sudokill> fizyplankton, i dont think so, because you cant format it / partition it for install
[23:11] <dr_Willis> top right power button has some menu items TheZanke
[23:11] <sudokill> fizyplankton, why dont you just put  alivecd in?
[23:11] <pfifo> fizyplankton, put it on a persistant LiveUSB
[23:11] <fizyplankton> sudokill: dang it. but that would be a good practical joke. when he gets back to ohio, and sees linux booting up
[23:12] <DriversBroken> Can someone help me image a hdd using ddrescue?
[23:12] <Viking667> oops.
[23:12] <DriversBroken> I don't know how to specify the source and destination directories
[23:12] <TheZanke> dr_Willis, tyty
[23:12] <fizyplankton> pfifo: i dont want any external hardware to indicate that its a joke. i want him to think i reinstalled his OS
[23:12] <Viking667> DriversBroken: for starters, you image the whole partition, not the directory.
[23:12] <dr_Willis> DriversBroken: whats the hard part if ut?
[23:12] <wildbat> fizyplankton: you can make a live installation ~ but ~ CD is slow ! for this joke ;p do it dual boot ! XD
[23:12] <sudokill> fizyplankton, he would hear the cd spinning either way...
[23:12] <tonytraductor> ok, I've gt ssh_config open in vim
[23:12] <pfifo> fizyplankton, how are you going todo this without physical access to the machine?
[23:13] <pfifo> fizyplankton, why not just install ubuntu for real?
[23:13] <Viking667> tonytraductor: no, wrong file. Check sshd_config, not ssh_config
[23:13] <dr_Willis> DriversBroken:  /dev/sda1  for example
[23:13] <dork> not to mention it takes a lot longer to boot a livecd than a liveusb
[23:13] <KM0201> DriversBroken: you could also try downloading clonezilla.. it's a bootable cd/usb.. it's fairly simple, and there's several walkthroughs on their site.
[23:13] <dork> and computers typically have usb ports in the back where they cant be seen
[23:13] <fizyplankton> pfifo: hes leaving his laptop here for a few days, then hes coming back to get it. that will be my chance for sabotage
[23:13] <DriversBroken> dr_Willis and Viking667:  I'm not very knowledgable with the terminal
[23:13] <DIL> guymager
[23:14] <DriversBroken> dr_Willis:  I have no idea what /dev/sda1 means
[23:14] <fizyplankton> pfifo: and its a JOKE. i dont want to aactually reformat his partition table andd crap. i just want to freak him out
[23:14] <tonytraductor> yeah, that' s what I meant, sshd_config
[23:14] <pfifo> fizyplankton, install a dual boot system for him, hell he might like it
[23:14] <sudokill> fizyplankton, set his wallpaper to a screenshot with program icons on it or something so he tries to click on them
[23:14] <dr_Willis> DriversBroken: time to read a few docs. a typo with dd can erase the system
[23:14] <pfifo> fizyplankton, gparted a small 4-6 GB partition
[23:14] <dork> fizyplankton: you install it on a thumb drive and boot from the thumb drive, you just put the thumb drive in and change the boot order in the bios to boot from removable media
[23:14] <tonytraductor> says listening on port 22
[23:14] <dr_Willis> !mount | DriversBroken
[23:15] <DriversBroken> dr_Willis:  I don't have the time to read a ton of documentation...
[23:15] <fizyplankton> sudokill: oh yeah. take a screen shot of his background, then make all the icons hidden and minimize the startbar? those pranks are old
[23:15] <sudokill> i know
[23:15] <sudokill> :) lol
[23:15] <dr_Willis> DriversBroken:  ddrescue can take days to run
[23:15] <dork> DriversBroken: it's a one page manual
[23:15] <DIL> http://guymager.sourceforge.net/
[23:15] <fizyplankton> dork: he has a laptop, and hell notice the usb\
[23:15] <dork> he'll notice the cd spinning
[23:16] <dork> and the excessive length of time it takes to load the livecd to ram
[23:16] <DriversBroken> dork:  And that's just the manual for mounting.
[23:16] <fizyplankton> dork: maybe not. his cd is really quiet
[23:16] <DriversBroken> dr_Willis:  I only have like 30 gigabytes to image, shouldn't take days
[23:16] <pfifo> fizyplankton, install grub on the computer and put a kernel and initrd on the ntfs partition that just boots a simple live system
[23:16] <fizyplankton> dork: all he needs to see is UBUNTU logo on startup for him to shit his pants
[23:16] <dr_Willis> DriversBroken:  and what disk is the data on
[23:16] <pfifo> inb4 !language
[23:17] <DriversBroken> dr_Willis:  Samsung F3 Spinpoint...
[23:17] <dr_Willis> DriversBroken:  check    sudi fdisk -l   output
[23:17] <dr_Willis> you need the device.. the /dev   name
[23:17] <Nobgul-bnc> Just change the boot logo.
[23:18] <sudokill> its very hard to do that on windows
[23:18] <dr_Willis> sudo fdisk -l
[23:18] <Nobgul-bnc> no it is not.
[23:18] <fizyplankton> pfifo: i might just use a knoppix live cd. no offence to ubuntu, but knoppix WILL work for my evil purposes
[23:18] <DriversBroken> dr_Willis:  Oh, ok, thanks
[23:18] <pfifo> fizyplankton, in that case just install grub2 and give it an ubuntu logo for the splash screen, maybe even rename the "mocrosoft windows" entry to ubuntu just to trick him even more
[23:18] <sudokill> Nobgul-bnc, it is on windows 7
[23:18] <sudokill> like a 500 page thread on it
[23:18] <dr_Willis> !ddrescue
[23:19] <fizyplankton> pfifo: i dont want to change even one bit on his hdd. all im changing is boot order. everything else will be done from the live cd
[23:19] <tonytraductor> I don' t get it.  sshd is running, listenig on port 22, no router (standalond box on modem).  I can ssh OUT, but not IN
[23:19] <tonytraductor> and there is no firewall
[23:19] <dork> tonytraductor: firewall?
[23:19] <Nobgul-bnc> iptables
[23:19] <fizyplankton> tonytraductor: did you sudo apt-get install openssh-server?
[23:19] <dork> tonytraductor: install nmap and do nmap -sT localhost on the machine
[23:19] <dr_Willis> ssh -vvv     for verbose error mrssages
[23:19] <Nobgul-bnc> I am thinking that mabey you diabled password auth and its looking for a key?
[23:19] <dork> see if it's running, but netstat suggests it already is
[23:19] <securityxxxpert> Is it feasible to install Windows 7 as a dual boot when you already have an home dir encrypted setup of Ubuntu 11.04?
[23:20] <dork> tonytraductor: can you ssh localhost?
[23:20] <tonytraductor> no. I sudo aptitude installed openssh-server, (and sshd is running, as I sai)
[23:20] <sudokill> tonytraductor, i got no exp with ssh :s but is it somehting to do with hosts.allow?
[23:20] <tonytraductor> yes, I can ssh localhost
[23:20] <Nobgul-bnc> Then it is a firewall issue or ipchains or tables w/e
[23:20] <tonytraductor> that's why I'm wondering if its the ISP, or something.
[23:20] <dork> tonytraductor: /sbin/iptables -L
[23:21] <dork> produces nothing?
[23:21] <Nobgul-bnc> Guess it could be the isp blocking port 22 change it to something higher in the 8000 range
[23:21] <dork> also sudo ufw stop
[23:21] <DIL> port forwarding?
[23:21] <dork> seems like a router/acl issue
[23:21] <hazamonzo> Anyone use Mangler? (ventrilo client). Im tols its on the repo but its not :s http://www.mangler.org/download/
[23:21] <dork> tonytraductor: if you think your isp is filtering it change the port to 443 and try that
[23:21] <tonytraductor> I do get output from iptables -L  should I pastebin it?
[23:21] <Nobgul-bnc> hazamonzo, i do yes
[23:21] <tonytraductor> ok, how to change port to 443?
[23:21] <dork> tonytraductor: turn iptables off first
[23:22] <tonytraductor> change that in sshd_config?
[23:22] <hazamonzo> Nobgul-bnc: Where did you get a copy?
[23:22] <dork> tonytraductor: paste it
[23:22] <dork> pastbine
[23:22] <DriversBroken> wait... I have to image to a directory?
[23:22] <dork> pastebin i mean
[23:22] <Nobgul-bnc> hazamonzo,  Fom the website. mangler's
[23:22] <DriversBroken> I mean a partition?
[23:22] <fizyplankton> tonytraductor: go to grc.com, click on sheilds up, click on SheildsUp(under hotspots), click procede, then click common ports in the blue box
[23:23] <Nobgul-bnc> hazamonzo, http://www.mangler.org/downloads/debian/mangler_1.2.0-1_i386.deb
[23:23] <tonytraductor> ok, output from iptables: http://blinguas.homelinux.net/pnopaste/?17
[23:23] <dr_Willis> DriversBroken:  you can image from a device  to a file
[23:23] <sudokill> or just do netstat -plantu
[23:23] <hazamonzo> Nobgul-bnc: Cheers
[23:23] <dork> thats not the problem
[23:23] <dr_Willis> DriversBroken:  then mount the image and copy stuff from it
[23:23] <Nobgul-bnc> hazamonzo, thats the older version. the new one you have to compile from source. Which is easy enough to do but. It's up to you
[23:23] <jeeves_moss> is there a good CLI utility that will query the CDDB to auto update a MP3's ID3Tag info?
[23:24] <dork> tonytraductor: you can't ssh in from the LAN? or do you only have public IP's?
[23:24] <dork> tonytraductor: got an IP?
[23:25] <tonytraductor> that grc.com thing seems to indicate ports 1` thru 100 are closed, (which includes 22)
[23:25] <tonytraductor> yes, I do have an ip <IP_ADDRESS>
[23:25] <dork> tonytraductor: if you're tring to ssh into a box that is behind a router you need to create a nat to port 22
[23:25] <dork> nat aka port forwarding
[23:26] <tonytraductor> this machine is not on a lan, when I try to ssh in from my house (remote)_ can
[23:26] <tonytraductor> can not get in
[23:26] <epicelite> Hello? :3
[23:26] <tonytraductor> its my moms machine. I am on it right now (although ssh-ed out to use irrsi on my home machine)
[23:26] <dork> tonytraductor: go change it to listen on port 443
[23:26] <tonytraductor> I know. there is no router here. just a modem
[23:26] <epicelite> Can anyone help me with a Ubuntu install, it's my first time.
[23:26] <tonytraductor> ok, how to change port I do not konw
[23:27] <Nobgul-bnc> sshd_config
[23:27] <dork> nmap suggests this is a microsoft box
[23:27] <atari2600a> can you / will you be able to re-arrange workspaces in Unity?
[23:27] <atari2600a> cause that's more or less the only thing that's killing it for me right now
[23:27] <tonytraductor> do I just change that in sshd_config? or is there more to it? (no router, I know how to opern ports on router, but that shouldn't be necessary here)
[23:27] <atari2600a> well, that & the loss of the GOOD appIndicator
[23:27] <dork> seems like there's a 1:1 nat on a MS box somewhere behing whatever router is handing out the IP
[23:27] <dr_Willis> atari2600a:  rearange how
[23:28] <atari2600a> dr_Willis, like put into a row instead of a box, add more, etc
[23:28] <dork> tonytraductor: sshd_config find the port variable, change it to 443
[23:28] <linxeh> does anyone know how to go about updating the firmware in an ocz vertex 2e from ubuntu ?
[23:28] <dork> reload ssh
[23:28] <dr_Willis> they hav to be 2x N
[23:29] <epicelite> Anyone? I'm trying to install Ubuntu but at the set up partitions part all the buttons are grayed out and it won't let me continue.
[23:29] <atari2600a> dr_Willis, I'm fine with that, but I still need the ability to re-arrange
[23:29] <pfifo> pfifo@ubuntu:~$ telnet <IP_ADDRESS> 22 Trying <IP_ADDRESS>... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
[23:29] <dr_Willis> atari2600a:  yiu can add more
[23:29] <atari2600a> otherwise Unity would be a major downgrade
[23:29] <atari2600a> or at least a bitch to get used to
[23:29] <Argorok> Hi, does anyone use Mercurial? I need helo and explanation of some things
[23:29] <dork> pfifo: port scan it, it's showing open/filtered ports but not ssh, bunch of MS services on it, definitely not an ubuntu box
[23:29] <dr_Willis> 2x4 2x 100 or whatever you want
[23:29] <Nobgul-bnc> linxeh,  you must have winblows to update it
[23:30] <dr_Willis> i rarely use the desktops feature these days
[23:30] <pfifo> dork rpc is open it seems
[23:30] <dork> msrpc is filtered
[23:31] <dork> either way it shouldn't be there
[23:31] <someone--> unrar can't extract something. it says filename too long. how to extrct into another filename?
[23:31] <Nobgul-bnc> COuld he be running a windows vmware machine that the ports are being forwarded to?
[23:31] <dork> i don't think the box is using a real routable iP address
[23:31] <dork> Nobgul-bnc: not if the vps' ethernet adapter is bridged
[23:31] <dork> it would have no impact
[23:32] <andregabriel_> I run command rails console and after a long time I get: DEAD. it aint entering.... what coud be the problem?
[23:32] <linxeh> Nobgul-bnc: they released a linux firmware updater a while ago, but I dont seem to be able to find much about it now. I've updated in the past using it, but I dont have the files any more and need to update a drive in a laptop
[23:32] <chrome_> "The command could not be located because '/usr/games' is not included in the PATH environment variable." how I can I fix this?
[23:32] <Nobgul-bnc> linxeh,  I have never seen the linux one would be interested in getting it
[23:32] <someone--> or, how to increate this limit in the filename length. (could be in a tmpfs; I extract there, then rename)
[23:34] <pfifo> Nobgul-bnc, so,IS this box a M$ box?
[23:34] <dork> i think it's a nat ip
[23:34] <dork> tonytraductor: pastebin an ifconfig please
[23:34] <linxeh> Nobgul-bnc: its called fwupd, but I cant find it on their updated website atm
[23:35] <pfifo> Nobgul-bnc, disregard that
[23:35] <pfifo> tonytraductor, so,IS this box a M$ box?
[23:35] <tekkidd> hey anyone here got a google+ invite
[23:36] <dork> it's either a windows machine running an ubuntu vps with layer 3, or he's being handed a local nat IP and using whatismyipaddress.com or something to see his ip address
[23:36] <linxeh> Nobgul-bnc: http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/forum/showthread.php?82289-OCZ-SandForce-Linux-based-firmware-update-tool&s=66f2b5c31a39195d2ba61dd03df28370
[23:36] <pfifo> dork, layer 3, im getting sbcglobal.net
[23:37] <dork> pfifo: layer three on the box hosing the vps
[23:37] <dork> and not layer 2
[23:37] <Gaara_> So
[23:37] <Gaara_> My Camera is working on Cheese
[23:37] <Gaara_> But Skype doesn't seem to work with it
[23:37] <Gaara_> :c
[23:37] <dork> sbc is ppoe so i'm pretty sure it's not a nat issue from the ISP
[23:37] <dork> pppoe
[23:37] <pfifo> dork, its not a VPS, its a residential service
[23:38] <dork> pfifo: i'm saying he's using a windows machine to virtualize ubuntu
[23:38] <dork> and the connection the vps is using is in nat mode not bridge mode
[23:38] <chrome_> anybody can tell me if the "/usr/games/" is withing the PATH env variable... By typing echo $PATH
[23:39] <Gaara_> Sephiroth, from DesertOperations?
[23:39] <pfifo> dork, im betting hes stealing bandwidth from his neighbors wifi (possibly without knowing), and they have a M$ box in DMZ
[23:39] <dork> yeah that would do it too
[23:39] <dork> lol
[23:39] <wildbat> chrome_:  yes
[23:39] <dork> wish he would spit out an ifconfig
[23:39] <chrome_> thanks
[23:39] <qin> chrome_: Yes.
[23:39] <tonytraductor> I changed port from 22 to 443. when I try 22, says connection refused (expected now), when I try port 443, says name or service not known?
[23:40] <dork> tonytraductor: pastebin an ifconfig
[23:40] <qin> tonytraductor: What is ip of your ssh-server???
[23:40] <Gaara_> My Camera is working on Cheese, But Skype doesn't seem to work with it :c
[23:40] <dork> pfifo: if he were doing that his router wouldn't be handing out a public ip, so it's coming down to the ifconfig.
[23:40] <tonytraductor> ifconfig pate: http://blinguas.homelinux.net/pnopaste/?18
[23:41] <dork> nat
[23:41] <tonytraductor> no, this is a peppermint os box (ubuntu based LXDE distro)
[23:41] <ubuntunoobie2903> When I click on an icon it does not minimize the window. Any ideas?
[23:41] <tonytraductor> IP of which server?
[23:41] <dork> tonytraductor: you have a router handing out a local ip somewhere,
[23:41] <tonytraductor> no router, connected directly to modem
[23:42] <dork> tonytraductor: you need to set up a nat/port forward from the ip on the wan interface of the router giving you an ip, to the local ip
[23:42] <dork> tonytraductor: the modem is a router/modem
[23:42] <tonytraductor> there is no router
[23:42] <DIL> is not dialup?
[23:42] <tonytraductor> I have no access to the modem, it belongs to the ISP
[23:42] <dork> tonytraductor: your modem is a router. 192.168.* is a local ip address, it is not routable from the internet, you need to log into the ROUTER and forward port 22 to that ip
[23:42] <pfifo> tonytraductor, YES, your modem has a built in router
[23:42] <qin> tonytraductor: Ip of mashine which supposed to run ssh server, machine you cannot connect to.
[23:43] <Gaara_> My Camera is working on Cheese, But Skype doesn't seem to work with it :c
[23:43] <tonytraductor> ip here is <IP_ADDRESS>
[23:43] <dork> tonytraductor: on your router's wan interface
[23:43] <tonytraductor> I have no idea how to get into this modem
[23:43] <dork> what is it a linkshit?
[23:43] <dork> open up a browser go to <IP_ADDRESS>
[23:43] <tonytraductor> some AT&T crap
[23:43] <dork> or type route see what the GW is
[23:43] <pfifo> tonytraductor, go here http://<IP_ADDRESS>
[23:44] <th0r> Gaara_: I have the same problem in debian. It appears to be a problem with skype, as my webcam works with linphone as well
[23:44] <wildbat> dork ~ LOL! linkshit ~ ...... you make me laugh ~
[23:44] <Gaara_> N'awe :(
[23:44] <dork> figure out the credentials and inside the ROUTER you can port forward the real ip, the 76.200 ip, to the 192.168 ip, you will want to change the ubuntu box to a static local ip so it doesn't change
[23:44] <Gaara_> I want to skype with my bf, frigging pain that the cam ACTUALLY works, Skype!!
[23:44] <pfifo> dork, why on earth would his modem have windows ports open?
[23:45] <dork> pfifo: seems like a 1:1/dmz
[23:45] <pfifo> dork, but not 22?
[23:45] <dork> a 1:1 nat to a windows box
[23:45] <dork> i bet his mom has one, but typically you have to create the dmz/1:1 nat
[23:45] <pfifo> dork, but he said its just the 1 computer
[23:45] <zelo> how to run uck in console mode?
[23:46] <dork> yah
[23:46] <pfifo> dork, maybe its doing it by default to prevent customer support... or maybe via the previous customer setting it up
[23:47] <wildbat> Gaara_: your skype  didn't detect it or something ?
[23:47] <dork> could be, the windows machine probably had some sort of proprietary ATT support software installed that did some sort of upnp type thing that dmz'd the windows host
[23:47] <Gaara_> I'm not too sure
[23:47] <Gaara_> It shows the device i think.. but it displays a black screen if i go to test it
[23:48] <Gaara_> Select camera : USB Camera (/dev/video1)
[23:49] <holmes> cheapo ATT crap modem...touch it and it goes offline
[23:49] <pfifo> Cable > DSL
[23:49] <holmes> I can not access this modem/router at <IP_ADDRESS> (that' s my router ip at home,.  apparently this is not a lynksissy)
[23:50] <DIL> <IP_ADDRESS>
[23:50] <dork> holmes: type route, the gw is going to be the modem's management interface
[23:50] <dork> DIL is probably corrrect
[23:51] <DriversBroken> dr_Willis:  I ended up using gparted to copy the partition, which was even smart enough to copy it to unallocated space :)
[23:51] <holmes> Ive got it listening on 443 now, still can' t get in (1 thru 1`00 blocked, I would guess by the ISP)
[23:51] <dork> holmes: you're not hearing me, you need to get into the router
[23:52] <holmes> but, yeah, I see what you mean, this modem IS a router, but I have no idea how to get in and tell it to forward ssh to 443
[23:52] <Gaara_> Anyone know how to instal a version of skype that works with webcams >_>
[23:52] <dork> google/call att
[23:52] <dork> Gaara_: never had a problem with skype on linux not working with web cams
[23:52] <pfifo> holmes, I would cal ATT chances are your going to need a password from them anyway
[23:52] <Anon08> hey guys. Does anyone know how to solve th recording issue on ubuntu 11.04?
[23:52] <holmes> forget that microsoft skype bullsh1+3
[23:52] <spacebug-> holmes: what modem/router is it? model nr / brand
[23:52] <Gaara_> dork ;(, so what would you suggest then?
[23:53] <DIL> <IP_ADDRESS> is att default
[23:53] <spacebug-> ok
[23:53] <spacebug-> tried that holmes ?
[23:53] <dork> Gaara_: google through it
[23:53] <pfifo> Gaara_, I get issues too, cam goes all dark and noone can see me
[23:53] <dork> Gaara_: if it's a common enough issue it will produce google results that might provide a fix
[23:53] <holmes> some ATT crap.
[23:53] <holmes> this thing says my nick is in use...
[23:54] <Gaara_> :( - Hate googling, the anwsers always confused me
[23:54] <Gaara_> im not good with linux/ubuntu
[23:54] <dork> holmes: it's a ghost, you have to kill the ghost if it's registered
[23:54] <Gaara_> But, I'll try :3
[23:54] <spacebug-> ok holmes forget that about brand / model, have you tried go to http://<IP_ADDRESS> ?
[23:54] <dork> Gaara_: it's part of the responsibility of knowing how to use linux.
[23:54] <holmes> yeahg, I was on and the connection dumped...
[23:54] <holmes> I AM tonytraductor
[23:54] <holmes> one moment
[23:54] <Gaara_> Yeah I know, but i only just upgraded to linux
[23:55] <dork> holmes: it's a registered nickname, so assuming you have the password type /quote nickserv ghost tonytraductor password
[23:55] <DriversBroken> my hdd is making rhythymic noises.  Is that bad?
[23:55] <dork> holmes: actually change your nick now the ghost has died.
[23:55] <pfifo> Windows to Ubuntu is considered an upgrade now?
[23:55] <tonytraductor> ha...had to kill irssi on my home machine
[23:56] <tonytraductor> windows to any linux is an upgrade, duh
[23:56] <pfifo> DriversBroken, yes it is
[23:56] <tonytraductor> see, I can ssh out of here to my home machine, but I can not ssh from anywher TO here...
[23:56] <DriversBroken> pfifo:  What are you talking about?
[23:56] <tonytraductor> the key is in this crap ATT modem/router...
[23:56] <DriversBroken> pfifo:  I never mentioned windows
[23:56] <pfifo> DriversBroken, HDD is not supposed to make noise
[23:56] <spacebug-> of course you can
[23:57] <dork> tonytraductor: this isn't a problem unique to the router, this situation exists on every router
[23:57] <spacebug-> now tonytraductor, we cannot help you anymore if you dont try the tings we tell you to try
[23:57] <DriversBroken> pfifo:  oh right.
[23:57] <tonytraductor> looks like the mode/router has a firewall...doing some googling
[23:57] <thezanke> is there a quick user lock hotkey like windows+L?
[23:58] <DriversBroken> pfifo:  Stopped now, and I'm putting these in RAID 1, so I won't worry
[23:58] <DriversBroken> thezanke:  CTRL ALT L
[23:58] <dork> tonytraductor: get access to the router i'll tell you how to do it. it's not a firewall issue, well it is but it's a feature that is a default feature of any router
[23:58] <thezanke> DriversBroken, ty
[23:58] <pfifo> DriversBroken, you can install/check S.M.A.R.T. compatible programs, but I already know what their going to say, backup your data, drive failure is imminent
[23:58] <DriversBroken> pfifo:  Um, I'm not even sure if my hdd was making the noise.  And there's no data on the drive.
[23:59] <solayagim> Hello folks
[23:59] <pfifo> DriversBroken, min has always been a clicking solowed by a high pithces motor revving up sound
[23:59] <spacebug-> hey
[23:59] <solayagim> is there any way to change "logout user" text ?
