[11:49] <tehbaut> ActionParsnip, is that L or 1?
[11:49] <tehbaut> or i
[11:49] <sei> unsure
[11:50] <faeryan> It's L
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> ell
[11:50] <tehbaut> hehe, thanks
[11:50] <Act1> ziroday mb
[11:50] <ziroday> Act1: mb?
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: ell for List
[11:50] <Act1> may be
[11:50] <tehbaut> so do I still need to partition, or will dd do the clone verbatim?
[11:50] <tehbaut> ActionParsnip, gotcha
[11:51] <ziroday> babo: can you change owners?
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> !clone
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> hmm, not quite
[11:51] <tomcyl> thanks a lot , i got it
[11:51] <tehbaut> ubottu, that's confusing
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> tomcyl: awesome
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: it doesnt apply either
[11:51] <babo> ziroday, i own the file and the directory
[11:51] <faeryan> Now if I understood anything about what ubottu said it might work for me.
[11:51] <tehbaut> dd would work though, right?
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> faeryan: its how to get your package list and use it to install the same packages on a different system
[11:52] <ziroday> babo: and when doing rm <file> it says Permission Denied?
[11:52] <Act1> i cat found GUI ftp server... can help?)
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: sure would, you may have to install grub to the boot sector
[11:52] <tehbaut> hmmm, well my unpartitioned disk isn't being listed by sudo fdisk -l
[11:52] <Jaikkuli> what is a hotkey to safely shutdown or reboot ubuntu, with no further prompts, just shut down
[11:53] <faeryan> ActionParsnip: Yeah. I was wondering whether I should just install a fresh system. I got my /home on another partition. Just not sure how much I would lose in the installed programs and such.
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> Act1: why do you need a gui, just use your local users as authentication
[11:53] <tehbaut> ActionParsnip, grub to the boot sector of the unpartitioned disk?
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> Act1: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/settingup-an-ftp-server-on-ubuntu-with-proftpd.html
[11:53] <Jaikkuli> someone, a shutdown or reboot key combination in ubuntu?
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: after the dd it may be needed on the new disk
[11:53] <Act1> ActionParsnip mm, mb not gui... i need see who, that download at this time
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> Act1: you can enable loggin and read the logs
[11:54] <Act1> reading logs not good...
[11:54] <simplexio>  Jaikkuli  ctr+alt+del if you havent rmeoved it. or if X is slow ctrl+backpace
[11:54] <ziroday> Jaikkuli: you can do SysRQ+Alt+REISUB but thats not really what you want. You could alias a hotkey to the "sudo shutdown now" command but that might not close everything nicely
[11:54] <tomcyl> W: GPG error: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com intrepid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY<PHONE_NUMBER>7EE263
[11:54] <tehbaut> ActionParsnip, I'm trying to clone a mac bootable drive... does that make a difference?
[11:55] <Jaikkuli> thanks all
[11:55] <ziroday> tomcyl: you can safely ignore that warning.
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: dd doesnt care, its a bit by bit copy
[11:55] <tomcyl> ok
[11:55] <faeryan> brb
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> tomcyl: the wine repo guide has a command to import the key
[11:55] <tehbaut> ActionParsnip, I meant in regards to the grub requirement
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> tomcyl: http://www.winehq.org/download/deb
[11:56] <Lint> is there a way to mount file as filesystem?
[11:56] <Act1> so, no ideas?
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> tomcyl: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/Scott%20Ritchie.gpg
[11:56] <simplexio> Lint: yes.. mount -o loop file.iso target
[11:56] <babo> ziroday: when doing a rm myfolder/myfile.sh it says permission denied
[11:57] <ziroday> babo: how odd, what about doing it with sudo prepended?
[11:57] <quibbler> babo, use sudo
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> Act1: why is reading the logs not good, it will tell you when folks log in, what folders they traverse and what files they downloaded and at what average speed
[11:58] <tehbaut> ActionParsnip, I'm going to assume grub will not be needed, as I'm just running off a live cd
[11:58] <tehbaut> don't intend to dual boot
[11:58] <tehbaut> that's what it's for, right?
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: the drive will need a boot sector
[11:58] <tehbaut> ActionParsnip, won't that get cloned from the existing disc?
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> thebinz: the OS needs a bootloader, thats what grub is for
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> thebinz: even if you only have ubuntu installed you still must have a boot loader
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: thats why i said "may need to"
[12:00] <tehbaut> ActionParsnip, so you're saying there's a chance that hte boot sector could not get cloned?
[12:00] <faeryan> ActionParsnip: The problem I described earlier doesn't stem from Ibex not working with my hardware since a fresh install on different partition seems to work ok. Updating the files and installing restricted display drivers to see where the problem occurs.
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: possibly, but grub can easily be installed and configured
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> faeryan: you will have to investigate a little to see whats going on
[12:01] <faeryan> That's what I've been doing for 2 days now. :) One more doesn't hurt.
[12:01] <freddy__> newbee: how do I install danish translation and keyboard on newly installed ubuntu studio ?
[12:01] <tehbaut> ActionParsnip, and grub works regardless of the fact that only one OS is installed?
[12:02] <guvil> Not working
[12:03] <tehbaut> so if fdisk isn't listing my disk, how do I get to it to clone or partition it?
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: i single boot all my systems and use grub
[12:03] <bonez46> I am d/ling ultimate ubuntu.. using torrent.. from estimates.. it looks like it will be late tomorrow before it's finished.. here's my question. what's the advantage to using torrent to d/l a large .iso, over just straight downloading, without the torrent?
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> 1ultimate | bonez46
[12:03] <guvil> hello
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> !ultimate | bonez46
[12:03] <guvil> any one
[12:03] <tomcyl> other thing, if i activate my nvidia graphic driver, my openoffice manuel can not see
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> bonez46: torrents allow multiple sources of data rather than a single server
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> bonez46: ultimate ubuntu is not an official release so is not supported here
[12:04] <Lint> bonez46, torrent can be stopped and resumed anytime
[12:05] <whitehat> hi guys im new to ubuntu and i'd like to choose the 64bit is now the right time to choose? i want to install audacity, kdenlive, elisa media center, mixx and many more....s this apps supported by the 64bit?
[12:05] <guvil> I cannot chat using any of the browsers on ubuntu. Can any of U help me out? PLZ
[12:05] <Lint> bonez46, not all ftp servers supports resuming
[12:05] <guvil> hello
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> bonez46: torrent clients can be configured to use less bandwidth using settings or bandwidth scheduler
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> whitehat: depends on your CP, ram amount and main system use
[12:05] <ziroday> bonez46: the reason torrents are "better" is because it utilizes P2P technology so that you don't download the file from the server, but instead from hundreds of people across the globe. And unlike normal servers where the more people that download the slower it goes with bittorrent the more people who download the faster the download goes
[12:05] <tomcyl> Plz
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> tomcyl: cannot see what?
[12:06] <whitehat> ActionParsnip: usualy i'll use it for audio and video encoding
[12:06] <bonez46> thanks...for the enlightenment
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> whitehat: 64bit will benefit you greatly
[12:06] <tomcyl> buttons
[12:06] <whitehat> ya but is this available on the repo?
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> whitehat: there are 64bit apps on the repo
[12:07] <faeryan> Any reasons for not choosing 64bit? Programs that won't work and such?
[12:07] <faeryan> Been pondering that myself too
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> faeryan: they are all fine, java can be a pain in 64bit
[12:08] <tomcyl> menus ＆ button
[12:08] <whitehat> ActionParsnip: how about the cheese, skype, flash is all available in the repo?
[12:08] <DIFH-iceroot> faeryan: sometimes there are provlems with drivers (chipset, wifi)
[12:09] <whitehat> ActionParsnip: ya the java
[12:09] <arvind_khadri> whitehat, every app thats there for 32 bit would be there for the 64bit
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> if you are shooting for skype i'd use 32bit, skype is garbage at best so i' pander to the fact that the client is 32bit only
[12:09] <faeryan> Ow.. Cause I'm fine with having 32 bit system. No actual reason for me to switch
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> !skype
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> faeryan: if it aint broke, dont fix it
[12:09] <tehbaut> so is there no way to get to my unpartitioned disk?
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: how do you mean?
[12:10] <faeryan> ActionParsnip: That I should really learn. Hardy worked nicely for me but I wanted Ibex and I'm swcrewed now.
[12:10] <whitehat> ActionParsnip: wel my reason for switch is bcoz of my 4gig ram only reads as 3.5gig in 32bit
[12:10] <tehbaut> it's not formatted at all, but the disk isn't showing up in GParted either
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> whitehat: then 64bit for you
[12:10] <tehbaut> nor via fdisk
[12:10] <arvind_khadri> whitehat, its the same everywhere :P
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: does it show up in bios, is it referenced in the output of   dmesg | tail
[12:11] <whitehat> ActionParsnip: well gona try how abut adobe flash is available too?
[12:11] <arvind_khadri> whitehat, it also depends that how much ram your motherboard can support
[12:11] <tehbaut> dmesg | tail via the bios?
[12:11] <arvind_khadri> whitehat, yes
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> whitehat: there 64bit flash now :)
[12:11] <faeryan> Can I install a fresh ubuntu system over my current system in hopes of making it work and still preserve some old config .bak files.
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: no, check bios first to make sure it shows the drive, if it does, boot to linux then read through   dmesg | less
[12:12] <whitehat> ActionParsnip: wew thats nice, ya thats hwat the dmidecode says
[12:12] <tomcyl> ActionParsnip: if i deactivate the driver, open office looks ok
[12:12] <stdin> faeryan: if you use the manual partitioning option you can choose not to format
[12:12] <tehbaut> I'm just going to take the drive back into windows and partition it
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> faeryan: just backup your setting files and user data
[12:12] <tehbaut> will the filesystem be replaced with that of the cloned source?
[12:12] <faeryan> stdin, Right, and there's a chance the system will work still? :)
[12:13] <whitehat> ActionParsnip: if i install 32bit apps on 64bit will it run fairly?
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> tehbaut: partition it but dont format it
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> whitehat: sure, there is ia32libs that can handle 32bit apps in 64bit'
[12:13] <faeryan> ActionParsnip: The ones on /home dir or are there much more? Cause I was thinking like old source.list backups and such that I have loads in my root dir.
[12:13] <stdin> faeryan: all the system files/applications/settings will be reset, but your personal setting will still be there
[12:13] <babo> what's a linux second extended file system ?
[12:14] <whitehat> ActionParsnip: where can i find that ia32libs?
[12:14] <Lint> pretty old unsafe file system
[12:14] <whitehat> ActionParsnip: will i install it?
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> faeryan: you can copy those too, if you use samba then backup /etc/smb/samba.conf
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> whitehat: its on the repo and is optional
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> whitehat: so you will need to manually install it
[12:15] <whitehat> ActionParsnip: yes gonna try it now....60% downloading ty bro
[12:15] <stdin> faeryan: you can probably backup all of /etc, it's mostly just plain text files
[12:15] <stdin> use tar so it preserves permissions etc
[12:16] <faeryan> I'm going to have a shot at that. Making that synaptic package list before and first seeing if I get everything working on this clean install.,

[12:21] <faeryan> Off for a boot
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> whitehat: seems to be a mixed bag of success and fail
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> whitehat: its worth a try
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> !skype | whitehat
[12:22] <Dreamglider> no other way to see the speed of the RAM other than bios ??
[12:22] <Dreamglider> -?

[12:24] <whitehat> ikonia: the skype in 64bit ubuntu
[12:24] <ikonia> whitehat: what is the problem with it ?
[12:24] <tehbaut> ActionParsnip, well I created a simple volume on the disk, but didn't format it... it's still not being picked up though. Should I restart ubuntu?
[12:24] <whitehat> ikonia: i'm hesitant to install bcoz of reported problems
[12:25] <ikonia> whitehat: I know of people using it fine, if you don't like it, uninstall it
[12:25] <Ginbuntu> would be nice if I can minimize Evolution to the notification area
[12:25] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: sudo dmidecode | grep -i speed
[12:26] <whitehat> ikonia: haven't installed yet yup 32bi fine for my 32bit U
[12:26] <ikonia> whitehat: if it's 32bit - you can't use 64bit
[12:26] <maximo> my problem is all these commands.....don't know them much
[12:27] <faeryan> maximo, they're not hard. I know almost half of them after 5 years. :P
[12:27] <tehbaut> ActionParsnip, dmesg | less has a bunch of "no additional sense information" type-messages
[12:27] <tehbaut> what's that all about?
[12:27] <whitehat> ikonia: skype now has 64bit?
[12:27] <maximo> faeryan: ....what is your tip for me as new guy...
[12:28] <faeryan> maximo: I dunno.. Keep the enthusiasm to learn. :)
[12:28] <ikonia> whitehat: read the link ubottu sent you
[12:29] <maximo> faeryan: yes I know ...right now I have to deal with another program....but first have to learn the *commands*....
[12:29] <faeryan> To be honest I feel like a newb compared to most other guys here.
[12:29] <ikonia> faeryan: everyone is new at some point, don't sweat it
[12:30] <edmondscommerce> yo - quick question - how do I display teh path to my JAVA_HOME or even check if a JRE is installed?

[12:31] <wookienz> hi, im trying to boot an ubuntu system but it hangs after the "Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)                            [ OK ]" - what is run after rc.local so i can tell what is casuing it to hang?
[12:31] <whitehat> ikonia: will this run on 8.10? its 8.04
[12:31] <ikonia> whitehat: yes
[12:31] <whitehat> ikonia: thnks bro that clears everything
[12:32] <maximo> faeryan: how safe is to use 11xvnc?
[12:32] <ikonia> maximo: as safe as you make it
[12:32] <faeryan> maximo: Aaah.. don't ask me that. :D I dunno.
[12:33] <maximo> ikonia: | faeryan: a friend want to vnc me all the time to show how to work with Ubuntu and commands....
[12:33] <Dreamglider> Back to school.
[12:33] <Dreamglider> LAter.
[12:34] <faeryan> Soo.. Imagine I were to do a clean install and attach my separate /home partition on the new install. Will I have to fiddle around with the ownership things or is it done just by hooking it on a new system?
[12:34] <ikonia> maximo: I wouldn't do that
[12:34] <faeryan> maximo: I did that with my little bro back in the days.
[12:34] <maximo> ikonia: why is that?

[12:36] <ikonia> maximo: then why are you asking if it's secure
[12:36] <jrib> tehbaut: heh, why ask the question if you don't wait for the answer...? :)
[12:36] <tehbaut> just wanna make sure that nothing bad happened
[12:37] <maximo> ikonia: it's nice program just need it to know advantage/disavantagees all risks to take.....
[12:37] <ikonia> maximo: I've just said there are risks and that I personally wouldn't do it, but you're still doing it so why bother asking
[12:37] <falcon2600> I'm using ubuntu 8.10 with two graphic cards (and two monitors, of course), my problem is: I would like to use the two monitors seperately and use a desktop switcher in order to see the content of each monitor

[12:50] <nashj> I'm behind a restrictive proxy that allows me to only make connections to destination ports 80/443. I got a free shell account that already has a ssh server listening on port 443 outside the LAN I'm in. What is the ssh command to connect to that server through the proxy?
[12:50] <nashj> I added Port 443 to /etc/ssh/ssh_config but when I connect like "ssh -p443 user@remotehost" it says "connection refused"
[12:50] <paradroid> tehbaut:  What output does "sudo fdisk -l" give you?
[12:50] <nashj> I believe ssh doesn't understand that it has to send that request to the local proxy. How do I tell it that?
[12:51] <tehbaut> paradroid, only sda
[12:51] <bman> how do you copy files to/from a iphone on ubuntu?
[12:51] <falcon2600> anybody knows how to manage two monitors in ubuntu 8.10?
[12:51] <jrib> bman: jailbreak it and use ssh
[12:51] <hmw> how can i turn off the notification when a contact goes online in pidgin?
[12:52] <bman> no way without jailbreaking? jrib
[12:52] <paradroid> tehbaut:  So the system is not only not mounting your external device (the USB-stick) but it is absolutely not aware of the device itself.
[12:52] <dr_willis> falcon2600:  depends on your video card to some extent.. nvidia-settings tool makes nvidia's easy
[12:52] <Imahilus> hmw: in the preferences
[12:52] <bman> cant bluetooth i see
[12:52] <jrib> bman: in progress, don't know the current status
[12:52] <hmw> uh
[12:52] <hmw> didnt find it there
[12:52] <bman> doesnt mount when plugged into usb
[12:52] <hmw> can only turn off the sound Imahilus
[12:52] <jrib> !ipod | bman
[12:52] <justinnfx> Anybody know where to put my mount point at when partioning a for new installation
[12:52] <brous> justinnfx-> /  for root /home for home
[12:53] <dr_willis> justinnfx:  huh? clarify that a bit perhaps?   unless brous  guessed correctly
[12:53] <Imahilus> hmw: you want to disable the smiley in the pidgin icon aswell when a contact messages you?
[12:53] <brous> dr_willis-> my que was new install
[12:54] <hmw> Imahilus: no, i am talking about the extra popup (system tray notification)
[12:54] <paradroid> Hi. I am trying to generate an image of an audio-CD using a simple "dd if=/dev/scd1 of=/media/audio/image.iso" and get an "Input/output error". Doing the same on data-CDs works fine. Any ideas?
[12:54] <hmw> Imahilus: might be jaunty?
[12:55] <justinnfx> dr willis:  I deleted a partion and now im creating a new one, it asks if I want it logical or primary, then it asks for a mount point and give me: / - /boot /home /tmp /usr /var /srv /opt /usr/local
[12:55] <Guest4409> Hi, how do I configure ircd-hybrid? I have it running, but I can't connect.
[12:56] <Imahilus> using ubuntu 8.10: having the issue with my wireless dropping every now and again for 3~5 seconds, wired connection isn't connected, linksys WRT54GL router, have the wireless configured on a static IP... anybody have ideas on how to combat this lag? as it will cache the outgoing packets in the connection drop and send them out when it re-establishes the connection
[12:56] <RegressLess> Has anyone here put ubuntu on an Eee PC?
[12:56] <Imahilus> hmw: sorry, beats me
[12:56] <faeryan> Agh.. can't seem to make that package selections list working. What's wrong here: "sudo dpkg -get-selections > /home/user/package.selections"
[12:56] <Imahilus> hmw: new myself, figured you meant the sound
[12:56] <magnetron> RegressLess→ thousands of people have!
[12:57] <apelgate> hey
[12:57] <dr_willis> RegressLess:  I got an AcerAspireOne. :)
[12:57] <apelgate> how do I install packages downloaded to the harddisk?
[12:57] <brous> faeryan-> perhaps use two dashes instead of one before the option
[12:57] <magnetron> apelgate→ did you try doubleclicking them?
[12:57] <apelgate> if I want to install all packages in one directory
[12:57] <justinnfx> dr willis: did you understand that
[12:57] <faeryan> Ahh.. I'll try. Thanks brous
[12:57] <hmw> how can i turn off notification popups completely? is there a way to configure/filter what is allowed to create such a popup?
[12:57] <apelgate> magnetron: no. text mode
[12:58] <apelgate> dpkg?
[12:58] <RegressLess> magnetron: I'm having trouble.  I have one of the XP ones and I can't get it to boot up. It hands at the blinking curser, left it running all night last night, hoping it was just a hickup that would pass.
[12:58] <faeryan> apelgate: dpkg
[12:58] <Imahilus> hmw: actually, I don't even get notification popups?
[12:58] <Guest4409> Hi, how do I configure ircd-hybrid? I have it running, but I can't connect.
[12:58] <brous> apelgate-> dpkg -i *.deb
[12:58] <aprilhare> i'm not sure why, however when I play enemy territory here I can't hear anything
[12:58] <Imahilus> hmw: I run basic pidgin that comes with ubuntu
[12:58] <apelgate> faeryan: can I install all those packages with a single command?
[12:58] <hmw> Imahilus: you should, eg. if you connect to a network
[12:58] <apelgate> or do I need to do one by one?
[12:58] <emmanuelux> hello, how to save my ubuntu after a freeze on a updgrade
[12:58] <faeryan> apelgate: Not sure but you could try dpkg -i name.deb name2.deb etc.deb
[12:59] <hmw> Imahilus: ah, thought you were talking about notifications in general
[12:59] <Imahilus> hmw: those popups last a second or so, and aren't top-level, so I rarely see em
[12:59] <dr_willis> dpkg -i *.deb   (but that may not be a good idea)
[12:59] <faeryan> apelgate: or maybe dpkg -i *.deb
[12:59] <justinnfx> dr willis: did you understand that?  about the mount point
[12:59] <dr_willis> You better hope they are the right packages. :0 and hope they meet all the dependenceis also
[12:59] <dr_willis> justinnfx:  dident notice the question.
[12:59] <justinnfx> dr willis:  I deleted a partion and now im creating a new one, it asks if I want it logical or primary, then it asks for a mount point and give me: / - /boot /home /tmp /usr /var /srv /opt /usr/local
[13:00] <dr_willis> justinnfx:  i always make primaries.. and you MUST have at least a / parittion.
[13:00] <dr_willis> justinnfx:  otehrs are optional.
[13:00] <Imahilus> using ubuntu 8.10: having the issue with my wireless dropping every now and again for 3~5 seconds, wired connection isn't connected, linksys WRT54GL router, have the wireless configured on a static IP... anybody have ideas on how to combat this lag? as it will cache the outgoing packets in the connection drop and send them out when it re-establishes the connection
[13:00] <aprilhare> i get the following when running enemy territory: /dev/dsp: Input/output error
[13:00] <aprilhare> whats going on?
[13:00] <zykes-> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[13:00] <faeryan> Doubledash worked. :)
[13:00] <zykes-> crappy keyboard
[13:00] <justinnfx> dr willis: ok what about where to point the mount point
[13:01] <hmw> Imahilus: thx
[13:01] <Imahilus> hmw: I helped? =D
[13:01] <hmw> Imahilus: no, but you tried. *g*
[13:01] <paradroid> justinnfx:  That depends on what that partition is supposed to be for. Data-storage, as home-directory, etc.
[13:01] <dr_willis> justinnfx:  huh? / is the mountpoint name.. and where its at..  /home could be a mountpoint for a 2nd parittion
[13:01] <Imahilus> hmw: sorry it was of no help then ;)
[13:01] <RegressLess> I have a Eee PC 10000H running XP Home. Can someone help me set up Ubuntu or a related version?
[13:01] <justinnfx> hme directory
[13:02] <justinnfx> It is at the beginning of the firsts disk
[13:02] <justinnfx> that where im trying to install it
[13:02] <dr_willis> RegressLess:  theres several dozen eee-buntu sites and guides out..  it should install just fine. there are eeebuntu ubuntu variants also
[13:02] <RegressLess> ya, been trying
[13:02] <RegressLess> breakfast time
[13:02] <hmw> Imahilus: ubuntu+1 told me the solution: in the plugins, you can turn off libnotify popups
[13:02] <justinnfx> Im just making one partion
[13:03] <Imahilus> hmw: I'll keep it in mind =)
[13:03] <justinnfx> so should it be installed at /boot
[13:03] <ziroday> RegressLess: #ubuntu-eeepc and #eeepc will be be able to help you out
[13:04] <paradroid> justinnfx:  Are you sure you know what partitions and mountpoints ARE?
[13:04] <justinnfx> Partions yes.  Linux mount point NO.
[13:04] <ubuntistas> what does that mean? Supports transcoded video format
[13:04] <Guest4409> Hi, how do I configure ircd-hybrid? I have it running, but I can't connect.
[13:05] <justinnfx> I had too delete my last install that i did guided because it not booting into grub, and now it wont let me resize it..so im installing it manual.
[13:05] <dr_willis> Guest4409:  for somthing like that - you may want to check the programs homepage and docs
[13:06] <Imahilus> k, final try at getting help with my network issue:
[13:06] <Imahilus> using ubuntu 8.10: having the issue with my wireless dropping every now and again for 3~5 seconds, wired connection isn't connected, linksys WRT54GL router, have the wireless configured on a static IP... anybody have ideas on how to combat this lag? as it will cache the outgoing packets in the connection drop and send them out when it re-establishes the connection
[13:06] <Guest4409> dr_willis: can't find anything on their site, and what docs do you mean?
[13:06] <falcon2600> ubuntu 8.10, two graphic cards connected to two monitors: how to display in workspace "Desk 1" the monitor1 output and in workspace "Desk 2" the output of the monitor 2?
[13:06] <dr_willis> Guest4409:  if the program is lacking in docs.. i dont suggest using it then
[13:07] <justinnfx> noone can answer my simple question i said what i wanted to do (install linux at the begineening of the drive) and I gave the options of different  mount points you cna use
[13:07] <dr_willis> justinnfx:  put / at the aprtition at the starty of the drive then.  /dev/sda1 or whatever one its called
[13:07] <dr_willis> justinnfx:  you aparently dont understand mountpoints and how drives are named.
[13:07] <ubuntistas> what does that mean? Supports transcoded video format
[13:08] <justinnfx>
[13:08] <dr_willis> justinnfx:  or use the aprtition manager tool. and delete the ones you dont want.. then tell the installer to auto parittion. and it should do it all.
[13:08] <justinnfx> IM On the screen NEW PARTION in manul.  NOW Which DO I choose from
[13:08] <fuks> where can i edit program list what should be run on startup
[13:09] <faeryan> fuks: Sessions I believe. In administrator.
[13:09] <justinnfx> * / * /boot * /home * /tmp * /usr * /var * /srv * /opt * /usr/local
[13:09] <falcon2600> ubuntu 8.10, two graphic cards connected to two monitors: how to display in workspace "Desk 1" the output of monitor 1 and in workspace "Desk 2" the output of the monitor 2?
[13:09] <Imahilus> justinnfx: no need to shout, you're getting help, aren't you?
[13:10] <fuks> faeryan: thx
[13:10] <justinnfx> It give me all those options to choose from
[13:10] <justinnfx> no\
[13:10] <faeryan> Time for me to go and see if install on top of broken install will work.
[13:10] <justinnfx> not really..lol
[13:10] <dr_willis> justinnfx:   for sda1  you select /
[13:10] <Imahilus> justinnfx: at the least you're getting replies
[13:10] <justinnfx> if im so dumb why cant anyone answer
[13:10] <dr_willis> its just giveing you common 'places'  to mount parittions to justinnfx
[13:11] <Imahilus> justinnfx: don't know enough about the situation to help you, and I'm clueless about what mountpoints are aswell
[13:11] <dr_willis> !mount
[13:11] <justinnfx> I am just installing and I creating a new partion in manual
[13:11] <Imahilus> justinnfx: though I'm sure there is plenty of documentation out there to tell you what it is
[13:11] <dr_willis> justinnfx:  then  you use that parittions 'name' as the location for / - if you made a sda1, tell it to mount / to sda1
[13:11] <justinnfx> could it be that im using kubuntu that you dont know what im talking about
[13:11] <chris_> fr
[13:12] <Imahilus> dr_willis: makes sense
[13:12] <paradroid> justinnfx: Imahilus: Mountpoints are (simplified!) what under Windows is C: or D: etc. - they are the "places" where "devices" point to, e. g. the first partition of a harddisk /dev/sda1 is mounted at /media/stuff
[13:12] <ubuntistas> what does that mean? Supports transcoded video format
[13:12] <Imahilus> paradroid: much appreciated
[13:12] <chris_> #aisne
[13:12] <paradroid> Imahilus:  You can mount any device at any "directory".
[13:13] <Imahilus> paradroid: figured as much, you see that you can learn a lot more in here than the class I missed this morning =P
[13:13] <tehbaut> paradroid, good thing I've got a few trillion HDD enclosures laying around
[13:13] <paradroid> Imahilus:  So you could mount a USB-stick at /home/username/my_stick and have the stick's contents displayed in that directory
[13:13] <tehbaut> found one that works, hehe
[13:13] <justinnfx> im just going to see if i can to a guided partion again this stuff is for the birds
[13:14] <afreq> .
[13:14] <tehbaut> so... now I've got my drive loaded up, and it consists of one allocated but unformated partition... am I ready to clone my mac drive to it? :P
[13:14] <Imahilus> justinnfx: doing it manually is for the people that know exactly what they're messing with, yes
[13:15] <justinnfx> The only reason im doing it manually is its giving me an error the other way
[13:16] <flips1> Hi. On the UNR pages it claims that UNR Hardy will erase the contents of my HDD. Is that true for the UNR Jaunty Daily image as well, or will I be able to install to the partition of my choice, without deleting unwanted data? (Like in regular ubuntu installs)
[13:16] <cristi_> can some one tell me what are ubuntu 9.8 hardware requirements?
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> !jaunty | cristi_
[13:17] <justinnfx> im going to go read a ubunto book our something
[13:17] <dr_willis> justinnfx:  use the partition manager tool delete the partitions so you have a large section unallocated.. and let the installer do it  is one way.
[13:17] <dr_willis> !training
[13:17] <cristi_> I want to what are ubuntu jaunty hardware requirements?
[13:17] <bazhang> cristi_, wrong channel
[13:17] <Imahilus> ubottu? lol, how do people ocme up with such names =)
[13:18] <fabio> is it safe to update to gnome 2.26 right now ? (i'm using gnome 2.25)
[13:18] <cristi_> I want to know what are ubuntu jaunty hardware requirements?
[13:18] <ActionParsnip> cristi_: ubuntu 9.8 doesnt exist yet, 9.08 doesnt eist either, 9.04 discussion in #ubuntu+1, intrepid and earlier are supported here
[13:18] <ActionParsnip> cristi_: if its ANYTING jaunty related, /j #ubuntu+1
[13:19] <fabio> 6.10 stands for (6 2006, 10 october)
[13:19] <riker23423> Hi there. How much can I trust someone who has a ppa archive at lauchpad. I need glusterfs 2 for hardy and I have found one ppa archive having it https://launchpad.net/~onestone/+archive/ppa for user onestone but how much can I trust this source?
[13:19] <fabio> 9.04 stands for (9 2009, 04 april)
[13:20] <riker23423> I need to use this package in a production environment
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> riker23423: as much as you trust any other repo, there could be anything in the package, it could be fine, or not, its the risk of ppa
[13:20] <dr_willis> riker23423:  if you want to be truely 'safe' use source i guess.
[13:20] <raven> hi - i am trying to encrypt my system. therefor i shall make new partitions - one of them /boot. is this the place Grub is in??
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> riker23423: usually they are completly fine, but the internet is weird and wonderful and you are right to be wary
[13:21] <dr_willis> can one encrypt /boot/ ?
[13:21] <fabio> raven: gparted for new partitions
[13:21] <Myrtti> dr_willis: no
[13:21] <riker23423> but is there a mechanism for taking people into such ppa in lauchpad is is it just a simple signup procedure
[13:22] <raven> fabio yes but i do not want to do this and i think this is not necessary because grub still is on my windows partition and this is the boot part
[13:22] <tehbaut> dd supports 48-bit LBAs now, right?
[13:22] <durt> riker23423, I'd consider ppas to be mostly alpha. Doubt if anyone is doing anything nefarious, but I wouldn't bet my job on it.
[13:22] <raven> could this be right?
[13:22] <riker23423> I don't want to use the sourcecode and/or don't want to build my own packages
[13:22] <riker23423> because I don't want to mess my production systems
[13:23] <raven> dr_willis that is the question  - do you have experience with encryption?
[13:23] <Kimi> Hello
[13:24] <durt> riker23423, If your going to use new software wouldn't you test it before hand?
[13:24] <Kimi> In ms excel , type all the cells and press  alt + = will give the sum ..... whats the similar to this open office ?
[13:25] <Kimi> iMatter Are you there ?
[13:25] <riker23423> durt, you are right but this software is already very mature
[13:26] <riker23423> i just need to get way to cleanly install and use it
[13:26] <ubuntistas> what does that mean? Supports transcoded video format
[13:26] <riker23423> it's glusterfs2.0rc4
[13:26] <dr_willis> raven:  aparently one does not want to encrypt /boot partition. :)
[13:27] <Imahilus> encrypting the boot partition... could be fun
[13:27] <durt> riker23423, meh, If I was in your shoes and I had not used it before I'd test first no matter how mature.
[13:27] <HammerHead66> lol
[13:27] <wookienz> when starting in run level two, does it go through run level one firt/
[13:28] <wookienz> first/
[13:28] <raven> dr_willis not sure - truecrypt for example made some kind of bootloader for itself and only after entering the pw the system loader appeared - so perhaps that's similar
[13:29] <raven> but you're right i do not want to do some experiments ;)
[13:29] <riker23423> durt, yes indeed you are right but the systems don't have to be up 24/7 . the version is good for my need even if I get some downtime but I can't afford to use software from untrusted sources
[13:30] <ubuntistas> what does that mean? Supports transcoded video format
[13:30] <tehbaut> how long might it take dd to clone a 76GB drive?
[13:30] <ikonia> tehbaut: depends on a lot of things
[13:30] <tehbaut> ikonia, do tell  :)
[13:30] <ikonia> tehbaut: do tell what ?
[13:31] <tehbaut> what's it depend on
[13:31] <raven> tehbaut ~80 minutes
[13:31] <kitche> tehbaut: depends if your cloning the whole drive or just the data
[13:31] <raven> right
[13:31] <ikonia> it depends on your hardware, the load on your system, the through put, the disks
[13:31] <Imahilus> oohh, people here =)
[13:31] <ikonia> tons of things
[13:31] <Imahilus> sorry, want to try again..
[13:31] <tehbaut> ideally the whole drive... that's what dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb does, right?
[13:32] <ikonia> tehbaut: correct
[13:32] <raven> it clones sectorwise??
[13:32] <raven> ok..
[13:32] <Kimi>  In ms excel , type all the cells and press  alt + = will give the sum ..... whats the similar to this open office ?
[13:32] <progmanos1> hello
[13:32] <ikonia> it's a block by block copy
[13:32] <Imahilus> my wireless connection drops every now and again for 3~5 seconds; it actually disconnects and caches the outgoing packets. I have no wired connection connected, using ubuntu 8.10 and have a WRT54GL linksys router, using static-IP settings in my network manager, anybody have a clue whats causing this?
[13:32] <raven> or block - right
[13:32] <tehbaut> so is the speed generally about 1GB/min?
[13:32] <ikonia> tehbaut: no
[13:32] <ikonia> tehbaut: it depends on YOUR setup
[13:33] <tehbaut> what's the longest it could take?
[13:33] <ikonia> tehbaut: it depends on YOUR setup
[13:33] <ikonia> tehbaut: what part is not clear ?
[13:33] <HammerHead66> day even weeks lol
[13:33] <tehbaut> ikonia, the part where I figure out how long it'll take :P
[13:33] <ikonia> tehbaut: YOU figure it out
[13:34] <ikonia> tehbaut: we don't know your systems software or hardware performance
[13:34] <raven> worst case it will copy 200 mb/min i think
[13:34] <tehbaut> gladly, could you tell me how? ;)
[13:34] <ikonia> tehbaut: just run it
[13:34] <ikonia> tehbaut: and wait
[13:34] <ikonia> it will get there
[13:34] <tehbaut> haha, ok then... I'll be patient
[13:34]  * tehbaut hits enter
[13:34] <HammerHead66> lol
[13:34] <Ubuntu4u2> Hello all. Is this a good place to find Ubuntu 8.04 help or is there some place better?

[13:36] <Ubuntu4u2> Ubunteros,
[13:36] <Ubuntu4u2> I have a tv turner which I installed into my PC. After this I installed Skype.
[13:36] <Ubuntu4u2> Then I open skype and right click on it from tool bar I get:
[13:36] <Ubuntu4u2> Options--:Video Devices AND THEN "test window" to test video feed from webcam.
[13:36] <Ubuntu4u2> When I click on "TEST" nothing happens!
[13:36] <Ubuntu4u2> If I close Skype and open TVTIME and then open Skype again and go to:
[13:36] <Ubuntu4u2> Options--:Video Devices AND THEN "test window" NOW I CAN SEE my video.
[13:37] <Ubuntu4u2> I think what is happening is tv turner is over riding something inside? Or maybe I need to tell skype to use this web cam only? But I don't know how it is do or what I really must do.
[13:37] <Ubuntu4u2> Any help on this most welcome.
[13:37] <Ubuntu4u2> Thank you.
[13:37] <sudoer> yes, i was thinking og init.d
[13:37] <jrib> Ubuntu4u2: please don't flood the channel like that
[13:37] <tehbaut> ikonia, only works with lowercase
[13:37] <sudoer> my server is all meseed up from some code we deployed today, not sure why
[13:37] <kitche> sudoer: hence why a test server is always good to have around
[13:38] <Imahilus> Ubuntu4u2: update your sound drivers, incompatible drivers will default in ubuntu only having a single audio stream, the 2nd (your video) is being cached
[13:38] <Ubuntu4u2> jrib, How to you suggest I ask precisely that question? What is the style/format?
[13:38] <ikonia> tehbaut: yup
[13:38] <ikonia> tehbaut: thats why I corrected the command
[13:38] <jrib> Ubuntu4u2: one line.  If you need to provide more information (like steps you have already taken including commands and output link to paste.ubuntu.com)
[13:39] <tehbaut> I should have asked if there's a way to show progress :D
[13:39]  * jrib pummels his parentheses
[13:39] <luckyone> to answer my own question, it is libssl-dev
[13:39] <trin> i have a question.....
[13:40] <trin> how is the support for running windows vista in ubuntu under a vm
[13:40] <Imahilus> not good, vista alone doesn't even run properly
[13:40] <trin> do you get the 3d support for the graphics
[13:40] <names03> hello
[13:41] <Ubuntu4u2> what means  link to paste.ubuntu.com)?
[13:41] <Imahilus> I doubt it'd run better under a VM than an actual install
[13:41] <durt> !paste Ubuntu4u2
[13:41] <durt> !pastebin Ubuntu4u2
[13:41] <durt> !pastebin | Ubuntu4u2
[13:42] <CostaRicanQuaker> I don't know much about downloading scripts at all but I see on this page http://arun.wordpress.com/2007/01/29/download-youtube-videos-the-linux-way/ that option three is the safest way to do this, so I was hoping someone would be able to help me do this
[13:42] <trin> the reason why i ask is I have to run a program for my work that requires windows nad hte 3d graphics, but i hate logging out of linux and back in to windows everytime i have to switch
[13:42] <mefisto__> trin: I think 3d graphics should work in virtualbox, if you install guestadditions. maybe ask in #vbox
[13:43] <trin> is virtualbox free?
[13:43] <Ubuntu4u2> mahilus: MAybe I mis understood you but my problem/issue relates to video.
[13:43] <JuJuBee> Is there a decent wifi switcher for gnome? I have several wifi networks that I join at different locations.
[13:43] <names03> how can i acces an openbsd filesystem from ubuntu?
[13:43] <Maeva> should I upgrade to gnome 2.26 ? i use ubuntu 8.10
[13:43] <Imahilus> Ubuntu4u2: You're trying to play a video and it lacks audio, right?
[13:44] <jrib> JuJuBee: the default one? network manager
[13:44] <notplus_M> I'm trying to install Ubuntu 8.04 on an old Dell Latitude C800 and when X comes up I get stuff like this: http://starchan.org/lolwut.jpg
[13:44] <Ubuntu4u2> no!
[13:44] <notplus_M> Anyone know what the problem could be?
[13:44] <mefisto__> trin: doesn't cost anything, if that's what you mean. I think the version in ubuntu repos is an open source version
[13:44] <jrib> Maeva: no, 2.26 will be in 9.04 but it is not yet released
[13:44] <I1> i have installed the 2.6.28 kernel...everythings gone ok but after reboot i haven't the new kernel in the grub menu....how can i fix it????
[13:44] <trin> thanks i will give that a try

[13:45] <Ubuntu4u2> Imahilus, No
[13:46] <Imahilus> Ubuntu4u2: my bad
[13:47] <Ubuntu4u2> Imahilus, what means" my bad" Did I do something?
[13:47] <Imahilus> Ubuntu4u2: means I didn't fully understand your issue
[13:47] <HammerHead66> notplus_M: u there man?

[13:47] <notplus_M> HammerHead66: indeed

[13:48] <notplus_M> HammerHead66: 32 bit
[13:48] <notplus_M> it's a PIII
[13:48] <HammerHead66> notplus_M: are you installing 32bit or 64bit?
[13:48] <notplus_M> HammerHead66: 32 bit... it's a PIII
[13:48] <Imahilus> Ubuntu4u2: new to ubuntu myself, but I try to help where I can
[13:48] <Ubuntu4u2> I posted quite detail description above. Even got slapped for doing it.... Hum... What is it you don't understand exactly????? Sorry for my poor English. I only study for it 5 years.
[13:49] <HammerHead66> notplus_M:  on bottom right can you switch between screens?

[13:51] <notplus_M> HammerHead66: well
[13:51] <notplus_M> HammerHead66: I can switch to a VT and those work fine, so the problem is just with X
[13:51] <HammerHead66> notplus_M: does it still show the cut screen?
[13:51] <Imahilus> I'm off, later all
[13:51] <notplus_M> not in a VT
[13:51] <notplus_M> this is in the installer though so I haven't gotten GNOME running yet
[13:52] <kamp2tux> I at my webserver, and it has been setup to be accessible by external clients, but how can i test the accessibility if I still at local network ?
[13:53] <HammerHead66> notplus_M: doe sit affect the install at all?
[13:53] <notplus_M> HammerHead66: nah, I'm just waiting for it to finish installing so I can mess with xorg.conf
[13:53] <JuJuBee> jrib: Where is network-manager?
[13:54] <HammerHead66> notplus_M: ok
[13:54] <KoolD> how  do i enable shutdown to non-root users (through gui and not using the terminal)
[13:54] <jrib> JuJuBee: should be in your notification area
[13:54] <ottertoast> can someone tell me the easiest way to throttle exteral, outbound traffic on a specific port? 8.10 server.
[13:54] <carpii> iptables will let you throttle thruput i believe
[13:55] <HammerHead66> ottertoast: use firestarter
[13:55] <erUSUL> ottertoast: if its generated by one app esiest is use trickle
[13:55] <erUSUL> !info trickle | ottertoast
[13:55] <Private> free shell pls
[13:55] <Private> free shell pls
[13:55] <ottertoast> erUSUL, tried it. trickle won't work on the proftpd deamon because it uses some other protocol

[13:56] <Private> no stop
[13:56] <JuJuBee> jrib: that only seems to allow me to select wlan0 or eth0.  Not the specific wifi network for wlan0.
[13:56] <Private> free shell pls
[13:56] <Private> free shell pls
[13:56] <evilx> Private, if you want a free shell then install a nix type operating system

[13:57] <bazhang> carpii, please watch the language
[13:57] <ikonia> romme: ebough
[13:57] <jrib> JuJuBee: what version of ubuntu?
[13:57] <ikonia> enough
[13:57] <erUSUL> ottertoast: then check the « iptables tc ip » route but it wont be as easier afaics
[13:57] <carpii> ok im sorry
[13:58] <ottertoast> erUSUL, i've read some stuff on that and it looks hideously difficult
[13:58] <Buda> hi someone there knows a bit about Wifi rada ?
[13:58] <archman> Anyone knows is there any clock + weather on LXDE?
[13:59] <JuJuBee> For kde, I used kwifi manager.  That showed any wifi networks available and I ccould select between them.  Using 8.10  (kde 4.2 and/or Gnome)  both installed
[13:59] <jedimind> how come i cant add a VPN connection through network manager? i can click on the VPN tab but "add" button is grayed out; do i have to install some vpn protocols first?

[14:04] <oliver_> where can I edit $PATH? I accidentally added a path with ';' instead of ':' and it is not recognized
[14:05] <BlueAidan_work> ok, I need some help trying to resurrect some data from a possibly corrupted partition.
[14:05] <Ranakah> marko-_-- u use alsa?
[14:06] <marko-_--> Ranakah, what means 'u' ?
[14:06] <Ranakah> you
[14:06] <BlueAidan_work> I have 3 partitions setup, /boot and encrypted / and /home. I somehow got into a situation where I could not mount /home successfully, so I popped in an install cd and tried to recover.
[14:06] <marko-_--> it doesn't matter what i'm using, the sound isn't working of i use OSS or alsa or pulseaudio
[14:06] <CostaRicanQuaker> anyone here knows how to use gnome subtitles? i downloaded it but i can't seem to figure out how to use it and i can't find a wiki
[14:07] <BlueAidan_work> I think I accidentally overwrote the encryption info or something for /home, because now it's not being recognized as a valid ext3 filesystem.
[14:07] <HammerHead66> marko-_--:  try to kill pulseaudio
[14:07] <BlueAidan_work> I've tried using fsck.ext3 with all of the superblocks shown by mkfs.ext3 -n, but none of them work.
[14:07] <erUSUL> oliver_: how did you added the bogus path?
[14:07] <ubuntistas> what does that mean? Supports transcoded video format
[14:07] <ubuntistas> ?
[14:08] <marko-_--> HammerHead66, W: ltdl-bind-now.c: Failed to find original dlopen loader.

[14:08] <BlueAidan_work> I'm reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery . I'm mostly concerned with recovering some pictures I hadn't gotten around to uploading to the web yet.
[14:08] <erUSUL> BlueAidan_work: well the fact that the partitions are encryted does not help at all
[14:08] <BlueAidan_work> which method is the most robust: foremost, scalpel, magic rescue, photorec or recoverjpeg?
[14:08] <JuJuBee> jrib: any ideas?
[14:08] <BlueAidan_work> erUSUL: I realize that...
[14:09] <oliver_> erUSUL, $ export PATH="~/dsss/bin;$PATH"
[14:09] <jrib> JuJuBee: nm-applet in the notification area should give you a list of wifi networks in 8.10, if it doesn't I don't know
[14:09] <PerryArmstrong> can anyone tell me how to increase screen contrast
[14:10] <erUSUL> oliver_: path is set on /etc/environment but the esiest way to recover is jst to close the current shell and start another one
[14:10] <jrib> oliver_: should be a ':', not a ';'
[14:10] <erUSUL> oliver_: the change you did is not permanent
[14:10] <brous> JuJuBee-> or try  sudo iwconfig wlan0  to see AP's
[14:10] <BlueAidan_work> hmm, I just realized that if I changed the encryption key or whatever for that partition by accident it'll just be reading garbage from the drive. Sigh...
[14:10] <CostaRicanQuaker> Help I can't kill a process from the system monitor
[14:11] <brous> JuJuBee-> rather try  sudo iwconfig wlan0 scan  to see AP's
[14:11] <oliver_> erUSUL, yes, I know it should be ':' but how to make it permanent? edit /etc/environment ?
[14:11] <brous> CostaRicanQuaker-> which process?
[14:11] <erUSUL> brous: is iwlist who can scan no iwconfig
[14:11] <CostaRicanQuaker> avidemux4_2qt4
[14:12] <brous> erUSUL-> mea culpa,
[14:12] <oliver_> erUSUL, thx, it's clear now
[14:12] <erUSUL> oliver_: no; add $PATH=$PATH:whatever to ~/.profile
[14:12] <CostaRicanQuaker> brous, avidemux2_qt4
[14:13] <erUSUL> oliver_: make the change to only your user...
[14:13] <JuJuBee> brous: didn't want to have to use cli to switch newtorks when I change loations.  Kwifimanager worked well.
[14:13] <erUSUL> JuJuBee: network manager does not work for you?
[14:13] <brous> CostaRicanQuaker-> using like  sudo kill -9 pidof-avidemux2_qt4    will not kill it still?
[14:14] <CostaRicanQuaker> should i type that into a konsole brous?
[14:14] <brous> CostaRicanQuaker-> yes
[14:14] <JuJuBee> Doesn't seem to be.  It showd me my network connecitons (wlan0 eth0 vmnet0 etc... but not specific wifi connections.
[14:14] <brous> CostaRicanQuaker-> i mean you have to find the pid of that process first though okay?
[14:14] <Sooke> Hi,
[14:15] <CostaRicanQuaker> brous, i got onsudo command not found
[14:15] <Sooke> Is the web tool used for the launchpad free? I would like to have something similar for my projects
[14:15] <rotkeppchen> aaa ... the devil is amoung us ;0
[14:15] <brous> JuJuBee-> you sound like you have to nics connected to same subnet, not a good idea unless you know how to manage your route table
[14:15] <jrib> Sooke: well it's free to create your own project on it, but the source hasn't been released afaik
[14:15] <CostaRicanQuaker> brous, how do i find the pid
[14:16] <brous> CostaRicanQuaker-> you know the pid of the process?  ps aux    and look in the long list
[14:16] <Sooke> jrib, but it is a web tool like a CMS or Webblog, right?
[14:16] <CostaRicanQuaker> ps aux?
[14:16] <brous> CostaRicanQuaker-> yes
[14:16] <jrib> Sooke: sure...
[14:16] <CostaRicanQuaker> do i type ps aux into a konsole?
[14:16] <CostaRicanQuaker> and hten what?
[14:16] <mashman> !seen kimi
[14:17] <brous> CostaRicanQuaker->   and look in the long list for the pid of that process you wanted to kill
[14:17] <Sooke> jrib, and is there anything similar to install in a local server or in my own hosting server?
[14:17] <JuJuBee> I do not have 2 nics connected to same subnet and I do know how to manage routing table.  When I click on nm icon in notifications, I see the different interfaces.  If I select wlan0, and click configure, I get error telling me the interface does not exist.
[14:17] <jedimind> anyone wanna help out for 2 seconds if you can? i setup my vpn but when i try to enable it it just says "connection to {vpn} failed" ; where would i find a log related to that

[14:18] <brous> CostaRicanQuaker-> sudo kill -9 23678
[14:18] <jrib> Sooke: "similar"?  I guess bugzilla or trac
[14:19] <Sooke> jrib, , , in my company we are developping a big intranet, and we are sick and tired of sending emails back and forth about bugs detected, things to be changed, so I just though about having something global
[14:19] <brous> PerryArmstrong-> isnt there like a knob or buttons to press on your monitor?
[14:19] <CostaRicanQuaker> brous, thanks
[14:19] <PerryArmstrong> brous; apart from that....
[14:19] <jrib> Sooke: trac is pretty nice
[14:19] <CostaRicanQuaker> anyone can help me find a wiki on how to use gnome subtitles i can't find one
[14:19] <Sooke> jrib, ok, thanks mate
[14:19] <brous> CostaRicanQuaker-> next time, can you kindly man kill   so you'd understand the concept of killing a process?
[14:20] <jrib> !info trac | Sooke
[14:20] <Sooke> jrib, I think that is what I am looking for
[14:20] <CostaRicanQuaker> brous, how do you mean man kill? i usually go to the system monitor when i get stuff like this but thistime it didnt work
[14:20] <CostaRicanQuaker> i'm saving the command

[14:34] <CostaRicanQuaker> how?
[14:35] <CostaRicanQuaker> just replace to .mpeg ?
[14:35] <erUSUL> MrSunshine: you get a /dev/lp0
[14:35] <erUSUL> CostaRicanQuaker: yes
[14:35] <erUSUL> fine: nm-applet
[14:42] <DevilNut> I have some problems to play online streaming audio...anyone has idea? It just start cacheing then stopped, but occationally it can be played
[14:43] <Imahilus> stupid question time!.. if I install another network manager, it has to remove the current one.... is the new package going to be downloaded first, or will the current one be removed first? (causing an obvious problem)
[14:43] <bman> old one is downloaded first if you use apt Imahilus
[14:44] <bman> new one even
[14:44] <Imahilus> I'm using the package manager?
[14:44] <ugliefrog> on my laptop the netwotk manager icon is missing i cant find it anywhere i need it to try and fix wifi
[14:45] <bman> then your cool Imahilus
[14:45] <Imahilus> sweet
[14:45] <thewrath> i have a file i got from broadcom and i need help with it
[14:45] <Imahilus> was hoping the linux builders had brains
[14:45] <fuks> how make package from debian on ubuntu?
[14:45] <thewrath> it comes with a makefile and have no idea how to use it
[14:45] <bman> ugliefrog, type ifconfig at the command prompt
[14:45] <ugliefrog> k
[14:45] <Imahilus> hopefully back soon
[14:45] <fuks> i need just make same packeg with same method on ubuntu?
[14:46] <Lint> fuks, by using alien
[14:46] <bman> thewrath, is there a helpfile, howto, readme, or any doc?
[14:47] <ugliefrog> bman:it doesnt show my wifi
[14:47] <Lint> thewrath, does ./configure works?
[14:48] <bman> doesnt show wlan0 at all?
[14:48] <ugliefrog> bman:not at all
[14:48] <bman> if not then its a issue with your kernel module for your wifi card
[14:49] <ugliefrog> bman:my desktop has the icon right above the network tools icon but some how my laptop does not have it
[14:49] <thewrath> no it does nto Lint
[14:49] <ugliefrog> bman:im using a  external usb wifi
[14:49] <bman> thewrath, your going to need to have build-essentials, kernel source, and some sort of directions
[14:49] <bman> try googling for it
[14:50] <bman> ugliefrog, your wifi card supported by linux?
[14:50] <CostaRicanQuaker> how can i get libmono-i18n2.0-cil package installed?
[14:51] <ugliefrog> bman: ya. I just dont get it it worked fine and then one day my icon went missing and it didnt work anymore
[14:51] <bman> CostaRicanQuaker, apt-get install libmono-i18n2.0-cil
[14:51] <bman> ugliefrog, i would guess you had updated the kernel at that time
[14:51] <bman> try booting from a older kernel
[14:52] <ugliefrog> bman: dohh, i think so
[14:52] <bman> try it
[14:52] <ray__> Could someone direct me to the #wine forum?
[14:53] <quibbler> ray__: #winehq
[14:53] <ray__> Thanks quibbler
[14:53] <quibbler> ray__:  no problem
[14:55] <Paddy_EIRE> hmm.. quiet.. how odd
[14:56] <bman> everyone is smoking poth
[14:56] <bman> pot
[14:57] <Paddy_EIRE> heh
[14:57] <binarymutant> bman, not yet, everyone's still at work
[14:57] <pvtpete> hey :)
[14:57] <quibbler> bman: poth??   i think we know who.
[14:57] <flockofworms> [mpd] Playing: We Don't - Lil Wayne
[14:58] <pvtpete> I'm trying to setup my fstab for auto mount but I've got some discrepencies
[14:58] <ugliefrog> bman: will recoverymode fix the network? cuz the older kernel shoots me straight to terminal with x errors
[14:58] <mneptok> flockofworms: please don't use such scripts in this channel
[14:58] <pvtpete> perhaps someone would be able to give me a  bitty bit of guidance
[14:58] <flockofworms> pvtpete: what are you trying to auto mount ?
[14:58] <flockofworms> mneptok: ok
[14:59] <mneptok> flockofworms: thankee
[14:59] <pvtpete> my extra internal drives that don't have mount points
[14:59] <pvtpete> (as far as I can see)
[14:59] <bman> B)
[14:59] <pvtpete> some partitions aren't showing up under fdisk -l
[14:59] <flockofworms> do you see them in /dev ?
[14:59] <bman> ugliefrog, no i doubt recovery will fix it
[14:59] <ugliefrog> bman: will recoverymode fix the network? cuz the older kernel shoots me straight to terminal with x errors
[15:00] <pvtpete> but their showing up under bl
[15:00] <flockofworms> are they external usb ?
[15:00] <bman> there isnt more than one older kernel?
[15:00] <pvtpete> kid
[15:00] <ugliefrog> bman: ok then...thank you
[15:00] <pvtpete> internal drives
[15:00] <flockofworms> do ls /dev and see if you see them
[15:00] <mneptok> ls /dev/sd*
[15:01] <pvtpete> ok
[15:01] <maxagaz> hi
[15:01] <quibbler> !hi | maxagaz
[15:01] <flockofworms> if you see them try mounting them somewhere on your pc before messing with fstab
[15:01] <pvtpete> well I can mount them manually (the drives)
[15:02] <pvtpete> it just seems like theres a partition sda2 that's not showing up under blkid
[15:02] <pvtpete> but it does show up under fdisk -l
[15:02] <maxagaz> i'm installing ubuntu on my laptop, but it stuck at 0% at resizing windows vista, is that normal ?
[15:02] <pvtpete> hmm
[15:03] <pvtpete> I just see a load of files under ls /dev/
[15:03] <flockofworms> pvtpete: maybe it has the same label as your ubu disk
[15:03] <pvtpete> sda2?
[15:03] <pvtpete> I'll pastebin the results just to be clear
[15:03] <flockofworms> pvtpete: what do you see in /dev under sda*
[15:04] <pvtpete> ah ok - /dev/sda  /dev/sda1  /dev/sda2  /dev/sda5
[15:04] <pvtpete> it's appearing there
[15:04] <pvtpete> but it doesn't have a UUID in blkid
[15:04] <flockofworms> sda1 is probably boot
[15:04] <pvtpete> or other entry
[15:05] <nETspideR> hello
[15:05] <flockofworms> sda2 and 5 see what them are
[15:05] <pvtpete> yep sda is boot
[15:05] <flockofworms> do cat /etc/fstab and see what your root drive is
[15:05] <pvtpete> sda1
[15:05] <quibbler> maxagaz: try resizing vista in vista look here: http://www.vistarewired.com/2007/02/16/how-to-resize-a-partition-in-windows-vista      then try installing ubuntu
[15:05] <nETspideR> someone can tell me how can i mount an openbsd filesystem to an ubuntu
[15:05] <nETspideR> ??
[15:06] <flockofworms> nETspideR: do you know what the drive is ?
[15:06] <pvtpete> ok done :)
[15:07] <nETspideR> yes i know ?
[15:07] <nETspideR> i have 3 drives
[15:07] <pvtpete> not sure which one is boot - possible sda5
[15:07] <flockofworms> mount /dev/sda* /mnt/floppy
[15:07] <shahost> is there a tool for fixsing bad sectors/clusters on a usb disk (fat32)
[15:07] <nETspideR> 1 is windows xp , 2nd is ubunt, 3rd is openbsd filesystem!
[15:08] <flockofworms> pvtpete: boot is probably sda1
[15:08] <nETspideR> i can mount winxp but i can not openbsd filesystem
[15:08] <pvtpete> sda5 is the only sda entry appearing
[15:08] <flockofworms> pvtpete: do nano /etc/fstab
[15:08] <flockofworms> and see what it says for boot and root
[15:08] <nETspideR> when i give the dmesg command system tell me : [  676.056698] ufs was compiled with read-only support, can't be mounted as read-write
[15:08] <pvtpete> done :)
[15:08] <flockofworms> there is probably a swap too
[15:10] <pvtpete> cant see any mention of a swap drive / partition
[15:10] <pvtpete> sda5 is the only drive with / as the root
[15:10] <flockofworms> try mounting sda3 or 5
[15:11] <flockofworms> try 3 then
[15:11] <flockofworms> mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/floppy
[15:11] <flockofworms> as root
[15:11] <pvtpete> no floppy on the pc
[15:11] <pvtpete> fyi
[15:12] <flockofworms> should still have the floppy dir in your /mnt
[15:12] <flockofworms> do ls /mnt
[15:12] <flockofworms> do you see floppy
[15:12] <nETspideR> can someone help me
[15:12] <pvtpete> 1 sec
[15:12] <nETspideR> ?
[15:12] <pvtpete> nothings appearing with ls /mnt
[15:12] <bman> nETspideR, a psychologist?
[15:12] <bman> speak!
[15:12] <bman> heh
[15:12] <maxagaz> quibbler, thanks
[15:13] <flockofworms> do mkdir drive
[15:13] <pvtpete> just another line
[15:13] <flockofworms> as root
[15:13] <quibbler> maxagaz: you are welcome
[15:13] <flockofworms> then mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/drive
[15:13] <nETspideR> what is the right command
[15:13] <bman> pvtpete, cat /proc/partitions
[15:13] <nETspideR>  sudo mount -t 44bsd /dev/sda6 /mnt/sda4
[15:14] <WeazelON> why oh why does flash have to suck in ubuntu :(
[15:14] <bman> thats like asking why does flash suck
[15:14] <bman> it just does
[15:14] <flockofworms> WeazelON: ?
[15:14] <HammerHead66> it doesn't works just fine
[15:14] <jpds> WeazelON: Install adobe-flashplugin from the partner repo.
[15:14] <flockofworms> WeazelON: depends on how you install it
[15:15] <WeazelON> fullscreen breaks for me, and firefox almost suiciding when flash is on the background
[15:15] <pvtpete> done cat/proc parititons
[15:15] <WeazelON> i'm on 8.04
[15:15] <pvtpete> now I've got a list of blocks, minor major and name
[15:15] <WeazelON> its the nonfree plugin something package
[15:15] <flockofworms> WeazelON: there is a adobeflash plugin in synaptic
[15:16] <pvtpete> but it doesn't explain the original problem. I.e. I'm trying to setup auto mounting and my fstab but sda2 isnt shwoing up
[15:16] <WeazelON> i'll have a look again, but i think i tried it once already
[15:16] <pvtpete> bman or flockofworms ok if I go to pm ?
[15:16] <flockofworms> yeah
[15:16] <quibbler> WeazelON: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:17] <WeazelON> yea thats what i got installed flashplugin-nonfree
[15:17] <flockofworms> WeazelON: open synaptic
[15:17] <WeazelON> open
[15:17] <flockofworms> search for adobe flash
[15:17] <makario> What's a good webcam for Linux? Good resolution, good FPS, and works completely out of the box.
[15:17] <flockofworms> it is the first on the list of results
[15:17] <WeazelON> got 2 resaults
[15:17] <flockofworms> the one with the star
[15:17] <WeazelON> flashblock and flashplugin-nonfree
[15:18] <WeazelON> i dont see no star
[15:18] <flockofworms> you must not have universe and multiverse repos
[15:18] <WeazelON> how do i get them and add them ?
[15:18] <flockofworms> there is options in synaptic
[15:18] <flockofworms> under repos
[15:19] <Enzo60954> to makario -> most webcams work out of the box, have you tried one and it doesn't work?
[15:19] <makario> WeazelON Go to System > Aministration > Software Sources and make sure all of the boxes are checked.
[15:19] <ScottG> #hardware told me to come here. I'm having problems with my HP Officejet Pro L7950 All-In-One. The printer works fine but the scanner says it doesn't have a computer connected (It is connected to my PC downstairs via USB)
[15:19] <flockofworms> and reload
[15:19] <makario> Enzo60954: No, I'm going to purchase one today, and I need a good recommendation.
[15:19] <flockofworms> makario: just buy one
[15:19] <flockofworms> and what ever you use it with make sure it is pointing to it
[15:19] <WeazelON> everything IS checked
[15:20] <flockofworms> it is usually /dev/video1
[15:20] <mashman> who know how to set pppconfig ?
[15:20] <makario> WeazelON in Add/Remove, then, make sure you're showing All Available Applications and not just Ubuntu ones.
[15:20] <flockofworms> WeazelON: go to the other tabs and check the other things
[15:20] <WeazelON> k sec
[15:21] <Enzo60954> makario -> what store are you going to?
[15:21] <llacroix> how did I got there
[15:21] <makario> Enzo60954 Probably Wal-Mart since it's close.
[15:21] <llacroix> ubuntu made me do it
[15:22] <brous> makario-> if i were you, check what camorama is compatible with
[15:22] <WeazelON> what to choose under " Show new distribution releases ? "
[15:22] <ccchatzilla> question: where can I find the relationships between PIDs and window titles in a graphical environment?
[15:22] <brett__> t
[15:24] <Enzo60954> makario -> HP has a good webcam - cost is $40 though
[15:24] <Enzo60954> makario -> either that or a M$ one ;p
[15:24] <makario> Enzo60954, brous Okay, thanks guys. I'll see what I can do.
[15:24] <Enzo60954> GL ;p
[15:25] <kandinsk1> running Intrepid here, my disk does not stop making noises. The activity monitor shows between 11 and 33 % activity (whatever that means) all the time
[15:25] <kandinsk1> what does that mean? the computer is idle as it can be!
[15:25] <noaki> Hi! I don't know whether this is the right place to ask, but maybe s.o. can help me. I use a Widescreen 22'' monitor and play Warcraft III with wine. How can i play in 4:3 mode, so the game doesn't look shitty?
[15:25] <noaki> with black borders
[15:25] <slimjim> is there a reason i have two menu.lst in my grub file one has a ~ at the end of it, can i delete that one or are they both needed for boot loader
[15:25] <ScottG> kandinsk1: apt-get iotop
[15:25] <kandinsk1> ta
[15:26] <magnetron> noaki→ the only way would be if your screen has a setting for it
[15:26] <ScottG> kandinsk1: It shows you what programs are reading/writing to your disk
[15:26] <magnetron> noaki→ either that, or if warcraft iii has a widescreen mode
[15:26] <DevilNut> Hey, anyone can help me with online streaming music? not sure it is plugin problem or not...
[15:26] <noaki> megnetron how can i configure my nvidea card in ubuntu?
[15:27] <quibbler> slimjim -> the one with the ~ is the backup when you last edited the file ...yes you can delete it if you wish
[15:27] <kandinsk1> ScottG: nice, thanks! it-s the mythtv backend daemon!
[15:27] <slimjim> ok thanks
[15:27] <{bosco}> can anyone help messed up gdm to the pioint where i can only login via remote connection
[15:27] <{bosco}> ??????
[15:27] <magnetron> noaki→ is there a 4:3 setting in your screen? or is there a 16:9 mode for warcraft?
[15:27] <ScottG> kandinsk1: Yea iotop is a great program :)
[15:28] <kandinsk1> noaki, or even windowed mode!
[15:28] <brous> {bosco}-> you should be able to login via  ctrl+alt+f1 to f6
[15:28] <kandinsk1> Scottg: so is "aptitude remove mythtv"!
[15:28] <slimjim> what is the del cmd in terminal
[15:28] <noaki> magnetron-> there is no 16:9 mode in wc3 neither the screen has a hardware option, but in windows i could change the behaviour of my nvidea card in a menu..
[15:28] <ScottG> kandinsk1: Well if your sure you wont use it then yes
[15:29] <kandinsk1> wow, this is peaceful
[15:29] <magnetron> noaki→ you could run wc3 in windowed mode
[15:29] <quibbler> slimjim -> rm  read man rm to learn more
[15:29] <ScottG> kandinsk1: Personally I use "sudo apt-get --purge remove <program>" if I know im not going to use something again
[15:29] <noaki> magnetron-> ah yea thx, but i'm not sure wheter the mouse will 'pop out' of the window.. but thanks, I'll try it
[15:29] <ScottG> kandinsk1: Purging removes config files and such I think. I just do that to keep my system cleaner
[15:30] <slimjim> thanks it has been a while i have read it before just could not remember
[15:30] <kandinsk1> noaki, are you using the nvidia binary drivers?
[15:30] <{bosco}> brous, i understand that loged in right now but i am booting via recovery kernal and i and when i try in GNOME to change it back it says gdm is not running but i installed deleted it and reinstalled it thinking that might help?????????????
[15:30] <quibbler> slimjim -> getting back in the thick of it?
[15:31] <brous> {bosco}-> on recovery of single user mode, no gui is active anyways
[15:31] <noaki> kandinskl, i just found the nvideo x server settings :) thanks ^
[15:31] <slimjim> yes
[15:31] <kandinsk1> on my sistem, I fix your problem by going to system -> administration -> nvidia X Server Settings -> GPU-0 -> DFP-0 (or whatever screen you use), GPU Scaling Method
[15:32] <slimjim> have finally got tired of windo$ i am running ubuntu 8.10 on my older amd box with only 256ram right now but have plenty of stoarage space
[15:32] <neuratix> herro, is gcc 4.0.2 in apt somehow?
[15:32] <kandinsk1> then I pick "centered" woops that was for noaki
[15:32] <{bosco}> brous, went down to a root shell loged in and then did {startx} started x to get things going
[15:32] <slimjim> 1.5tb hdd space
[15:32] <kandinsk1> noaki, did you get that?
[15:32] <bullgard4> [Ubuntu 8.04.2] dmesg produces 9 messages prepended with "swsusp:" but I cannot find a driver 'swsusp'. What program does produce these messages? Is it /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.24/kernel/power/swsusp.c?
[15:32] <slimjim> and on my newer lappy i have dreamlinux with xfce gui with about 200g hdd space
[15:32] <slimjim> i have to upgrade the ram in my box but that will be soon enough
[15:32] <quibbler> slimjim -> that's one huge drive!
[15:32] <brous> {bosco}-> i dont believe there is really such thing as recovery kernel, its your regular launched and put to single user mode,  and again no gui or X server running in single user mode, all cli
[15:32] <noaki> kandinskl, yes i set this.. one moment, i'll test my warcraft
[15:32] <kandinsk1> noaki: on my sistem, I fix your problem by going to system -> administration -> nvidia X Server Settings -> GPU-0 -> DFP-0 (or whatever screen you use), GPU Scaling Method "centered"
[15:33] <{bosco}> brous, all you have to do for that is click go down to root term login and then use the command startx
[15:33] <kandinsk1> noaki: you can also try "aspect ration scaled"
[15:33] <{bosco}> to startx
[15:33] <noaki> kandisnkl, thanks a lot, it worked :)
[15:34] <slimjim> got to have lots of space. =) you never know how many MP3 and movies you can have =)
[15:34] <quibbler> slimjim -> if you filled that you would be set for years
[15:35] <babo> what config file does xset work with ?
[15:35] <{bosco}> anyhelp

[15:51] <Guest28959> yes
[15:51] <Guest28959> cat
[15:51] <babo> how come ubuntu doesn't have a /etc/inittab file ?
[15:51] <arvind_khadri> ScottG, the buttons on the scanner use API's present in the Windows drives so if you dont have those drives, they wont work
[15:51] <oCean_> !runlevels | babo
[15:51] <arvind_khadri> ScottG, and Win drivers dont work in linux :P
[15:51] <Guest28959> hola ke os pasa a tos
[15:51] <ScottG> arvind_khadri: So what do I need to do?
[15:51] <Guest28959> ke
[15:52] <oCean_> Guest28959: English ONLY
[15:52] <arvind_khadri> ScottG, use xsane to scan, dont use the button
[15:52] <irssi> Hi, I've tried creating a customized Ubuntu install cd from an official image (copying over everything, but making modifications to the boot menu to be specific), but now when attempting to install, the installer red screens with the error "This is not an Ubuntu CD!" does anyone know what check that is running, and how to make it pass?
[15:52] <babo> oCean_, thanks
[15:52] <Guest28959> kien habla en español
[15:52] <bullgard4> !es Guest28959
[15:52] <ScottG> arvind_khadri: Ok let me get that and mess around with it and ill be back WHEN i run into more problems :P brb
[15:52] <I-Shot-Kennedy> I thought security was tops under Linux? How do I block outgoing traffic? I just ran LeakTest 1.2 via Wine and it connected to internet without problems like I had no firewall.
[15:52] <bullgard4> !es | Guest28959
[15:53] <arvind_khadri> ScottG, sure :)
[15:53] <ottertoast> 2 nics, one for internal traffic and one for external traffic: possible?
[15:53] <arvind_khadri> !iptables | I-Shot-Kennedy
[15:53] <Guest28959> hello may name is rebeca
[15:53] <bayern0906> so many...
[15:53] <Drknezz> Hi
[15:53] <flockofworms> I'm worms
[15:53] <Guest28959> ok mis chiken
[15:54] <I-Shot-Kennedy> How can I block traffic on an app-to-app basis?
[15:54] <oCean_> !hi | Drknezz
[15:54] <Guest28959> no
[15:54] <Drknezz> !ufw
[15:54] <flockofworms> !rq
[15:54] <bayern0906> it's disorder
[15:54] <Drknezz> I-Shot-Kennedy: dude, try with "ufw"
[15:54] <kitche> I-Shot-Kennedy: you can't unless you use ufw maybe or something but iptables is not meant for app-to-app blocking
[15:54] <AJC_Z0> I-Shot-Kennedy: By creating iptables rules for those applications
[15:54] <ottertoast> 2 nics, one for internal traffic and one for external traffic: possible?
[15:55] <AJC_Z0> I-Shot-Kennedy: What exactly are you trying to achieve?
[15:55] <Drknezz> ottertoast, not possible afaik, NAt wont allow that
[15:55] <moshp> If I ssh-ed into a remote host how do I run a command on the local host from the remote host prompt?
[15:55] <I-Shot-Kennedy> I want to control which apps have this right like with dozen firewall apps under windows.
[15:55] <Guest28959> surprise cake
[15:55] <irssi> ottertoast: what exactly are you trying to do
[15:55] <I-Shot-Kennedy> Right now it seems any outgoing traffic is not blocked.
[15:55] <Drknezz> I-Shot-Kennedy, try reading ufw's manual "man ufw"
[15:55] <ScottG> arvind_khadri: Whats the diff between sane and xsane?
[15:56] <Drknezz> !xsane ScottG
[15:56] <Guest28959> oven
[15:56] <ottertoast> Drknezz, irssi, throttle bandwidth on proftpd
[15:56] <HammerHead66> I-Shot-Kennedy: are you in GUI?
[15:56] <Drknezz> !xsane
[15:56] <fuks> configure: error: curl-config executable is missing
[15:56] <fuks> how fix it?
[15:56] <irssi> I-Shot-Kennedy: outgoing traffic is not blocked by default, you have to block it with iptables or ufw
[15:56] <Guest28959> nooooooooooooooo
[15:56] <fuks> i have curl..
[15:56] <Myrtti> Guest28959: please use English
[15:56] <Drknezz> ottertoast, what?
[15:56] <patryck> fuks: ./configure --help
[15:56] <I-Shot-Kennedy> There is no way to configure it via GUI. Even shitty Vista blocked LeakTest 1.2 out of the box.
[15:56] <irssi> ottertoast: that sounds different than having one NIC for internal traffic and one for external?
[15:56] <arvind_khadri> ScottG, no idea, :S
[15:56] <HammerHead66> I-Shot-Kennedy: lol
[15:57] <Guest28959> y love milk
[15:57] <moshp> If I ssh-ed into a remote host how do I run a command on the local host from the remote host prompt? Anyone?
[15:57] <iinb3> xD
[15:57] <Drknezz> lol irssi, thought he was talking about the irssi client
[15:57] <ottertoast> irssi, its a long story...
[15:57] <ottertoast> Drknezz, lol
[15:57] <irssi> I-Shot-Kennedy: yes, because it has a firewall turned on by default. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo
[15:57] <Guest28959> nou
[15:57] <Myrtti> Guest28959: final warning, this is not a social channel, please use English and state your problem with Ubuntu, or leave.
[15:57] <HammerHead66> I-Shot-Kennedy: in GUI I use firestarter it works fine for me
[15:57] <Ramesses> if i set the 'always on top' attribute on a conversation window of pidgin _all_ the windows [with always on top set] will ignore the always on top attribute and go in the background if i select a window [without always on top set]; i just noticed this strange behaviour [intrepid ibex, up-to-date without backports! and gnome with compiz]; can someone confirm this? should i file a bug?
[15:57] <irssi> ottertoast: you can probably do what you're talking about by manually setting routing tables, but thats kind of a pain
[15:58] <Guest28959> Idont
[15:58] <fuks> patryck: i wanna compile with it
[15:58] <ScottG> arvind_khadri: lol ok. ubuntu seems to come with xsane
[15:58] <fuks> what package i need?
[15:58] <Guest28959> bay
[15:58] <Drknezz> ottertoast, anyways, some apps allow you to bind them to a certain NIC, but idk how to help you
[15:58] <I-Shot-Kennedy> Well, I have a really nice third-party firewall app with windows which tells me when a local app tries to create outgoing connection and asks me if I want to let it. Nothing like this under Linux?
[15:58] <patryck> fuks: try 'which <executablename>'
[15:58] <Myrtti> I-Shot-Kennedy: in general you don't need a firewall in Ubuntu
[15:58] <patryck> issit in your $PATH?
[15:58] <irssi> ottertoast: if you just want to throttle ftp traffic, look into QoS: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-7990.html
[15:58] <arvind_khadri> ScottG, ya, :)
[15:58] <Myrtti> I-Shot-Kennedy: that is, if you haven't installed anything that would spuriously open ports
[15:59] <irssi> I-Shot-Kennedy: yes, there are plenty of things that do this in linux, but they take a little bit of time to find
[15:59] <carmen> hola
[15:59] <Drknezz> irrsi, QoS sucks, but i agrre with you
[15:59] <I-Shot-Kennedy> There is an app that can do this?
[15:59] <Jeruvy> I-Shot-Kennedy: actually there are numerous applications, but ufw and firestarter are probably best for windows users.
[15:59] <irssi> Drknezz: agreed, but it sounds like thats what he wants
[15:59] <Drknezz> irssi, lol
[15:59] <Pe3k> hello, my favourite window manager is fluxbox; what is the best way to use it in ubuntu? Now I have installed kubuntu and as default wm. fluxbox, BUT if I rarely log in to KDE I find out that there are some updates which I do not see in fluxbox, so how to deal with that ? what is the right way?
[15:59] <max> was sit das
[16:00] <Myrtti> !de | max
[16:00] <Jeruvy> !de > max
[16:00] <flockofworms> Pe3k: apt-get install fluxbox
[16:00] <arvind_khadri> Pe3k, which updates?
[16:00] <HammerHead66>  max: bitte spreaken sie English
[16:00] <Drknezz> !spanish > carmen
[16:00] <ottertoast> irssi, Drknezz, if you want i will explain it to you guys. maybe you will have a better idea.
[16:00] <Drknezz> ottertoast, irssi, maybe we can go into a private conversation/room
[16:01] <celebroan> Drknezz: let me know (/nick changed)
[16:01] <ScottG> arvind_khadri: ooooh, i see. That program has been hiding there this whole time lol
[16:01] <Pe3k> arvind_khadri: it appears in KDE in left down corner and I think they are some kind of security updates??
[16:01] <Pe3k> arvind_khadri: sorry right down
[16:01] <celebroan> Pe3k: try running "sudo aptitude full-upgrade"
[16:01] <ottertoast> Drknezz, celebroan, just meet me in #tmplol
[16:02] <celebroan> Pe3k: in a terminal. that should get all your updates
[16:02] <Pe3k> celebroan:thanks
[16:02] <arvind_khadri> Pe3k, aah , its just an applet :P flubox might not have that as its lightweight :)
[16:03] <celebroan> Pe3k: fluxbox is nice, but it doesn't have a lot of the applets that are in gnome and kubuntu, including the update notifications
[16:03] <BlueAidan_work> xfce is cool. It lets you use gnome applets in its panel.
[16:03] <Drknezz> !español > carmen
[16:03] <ganesh> not able to play high quality WMV movie..it plays like a slideshow in totem or vlc how can i fix it?
[16:03] <celebroan> anyone here have experience with building custom install CDs?
[16:04] <Pe3k> arvind_khadri,celebroan: yes, I use it instead of KDE because of my old computer
[16:04] <celebroan> Pe3k: right. but it means you have to do certain things on your own manually
[16:04] <arvind_khadri> Pe3k, :) nice , even xfce is cool
[16:06] <BlackBeast> hello
[16:06] <BlackBeast> a question
[16:06] <ganesh> how can i play high quality MWV movie?
[16:06] <BlackBeast> if i have ubuntu 7.10 it can be installed on a laptop?
[16:06] <fabio> ganesh: mplayer or totem i suppose
[16:06] <Drknezz> BlackBeast, yes
[16:06] <celebroan> ganesh: mpalyer or vlc
[16:06] <Ramesses> if i set the 'always on top' attribute on a pidgin conversation window _all_ the windows with 'always on top' set [including pidgin's] will ignore the 'always on top' attribute and go in the background when i select another window without 'always on top' set; i just noticed this strange behaviour [intrepid ibex, up-to-date without backports! and gnome with compiz]; can someone confirm this? should i file a bug?
[16:06] <fabio> get w32codecs too
[16:07] <Drknezz> !compiz > Ramesses
[16:07] <ScottG> arvind_khadri: EFFING AWESOME IT WORKED!
[16:07] <ScottG> arvind_khadri: Does it support sheet feeders and such?
[16:07] <jedimind> how would i go about setting Sun Java Runtimes as the default, rather than the OpenJDK Runtimes?
[16:07] <arvind_khadri> ScottG, i guess yes... havent tried :)
[16:07] <ScottG> ok ill mess around with ir some more
[16:08] <kavurt> how can I mount an ext4 partition on an ext3 system?
[16:08] <xenocit> hi
[16:08] <Ramesses> Drknezz, hmm.. i know how to set compiz [and it was set by default]; i just noticed that strange behaviour now and i didn't have that problem before
[16:08] <oCean_> jedimind: use the "alternatives" method
[16:08] <arvind_khadri> kavurt, sudo mount -t <type> /dev/disk /mount/point
[16:08] <oCean_> !alternatives | jedimind
[16:09] <jedimind> oCean_: thanks i'll give it a shot
[16:09] <kristian_> HammerHead66: hey! around?
[16:09] <oCean_> jedimind: if you prefer gui - install "galternatives"
[16:09] <BlackBeast> thank Drknezz
[16:09] <HammerHead66> kristian_: yeah
[16:09] <Drknezz> np BlackBeast
[16:10] <kavurt> sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sdb10 bagla
[16:10] <kavurt> mount: unknown filesystem type 'ext4'
[16:10] <jedimind> oCean_: okay, i went through it, and i changed the java default to sun (i saw it in the list) but when i do java -version ; i still get openSDK
[16:10] <jedimind> err OpenJDK
[16:11] <JonathanEllis> Hi. How do I tell which kernel is running?
[16:11] <Drknezz> kavurt, ext4 must be compiled into the kernel b4 doing that
[16:11] <Drknezz> kavurt, ubuntu doesnt ship with ext4 enabled because it is unstable
[16:11] <Drknezz> kavurt, you need a custom kernel
[16:11] <arturo> hello
[16:11] <Drknezz> JonathanEllis, uname -r
[16:12] <arturo> who can help me ? i want to config samba in xubuntu 8.10
[16:12] <kristian_> HammerHead66 : just got back from work. will try to get k3b/brasero to work now. so i have selected the setting, skip eject tray after burn in k3b, and the first time i burn a data dvd, it burns it, verifies it and completes. then when i decided to burn another data cd with some other data on, the verifying fails. :-/ any thoughts?
[16:12] <JonathanEllis> Drknezz: Thanks
[16:12] <oCean_> jedimind: "which java" should return /usr/bin/java, which in turn is actually a link to /etc/alternatives/java
[16:12] <Drknezz> !samba > arturo
[16:12] <kavurt> drknezz thanks
[16:12] <HammerHead66> kristian_: see pm
[16:12] <Drknezz> JonathanEllis, np
[16:12] <oCean_> jedimind: The "java" in /etc/alternatives is set by the update-alternatives command to the java of your choice
[16:12] <Drknezz> kavurt, np
[16:12] <Drknezz> !kernel > Drknezz
[16:13] <Kingsy101> can someone help me fix some errors that I am getting when I boot my ubuntu PC up?
[16:13] <oCean_> jedimind: at least, it should be. So you could check "which java" and "ls -al /etc/alternatives/java"
[16:13] <Drknezz> !kernel > kavurt
[16:13] <arvind_khadri> kavurt, ext4 is there in 9.04
[16:13] <Ramesses> Drknezz, any ideea why 'always on top' gets ignored by compiz? [i mentioned that i haven't had this problem before]
[16:13] <jedimind> oCean_: well it does return /usr/bin/java but it doesnt seem to be using it when im running ... ANT in this case
[16:13] <doxer_> tjena hejsan
[16:13] <jedimind> should i restart my gnome session?
[16:13] <Drknezz> Ramesses, idk, you should talk about that in #compiz, not here
[16:14] <jedimind> though...
[16:14] <kavurt> ubottu can you send it again?
[16:14] <Drknezz> !kernel > kavurt
[16:14] <oCean_> jedimind: ok, I'm not sure if ANT has a config, where (fr example) JAVA_HOME is set... I guess that'll override system defaults
[16:14] <Ramesses> Drknezz, compiz didn't packaged _my compiz from ubuntu_; in other distros i don't have this problem
[16:14] <jedimind> oCean_:  doing ls /etc/alternatives/java returns  /etc/alternatives/java -> /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java
[16:14] <jedimind> but which java returns /usr/bin/java
[16:14] <arturo> can i use samba for ps3 ?
[16:14] <Drknezz> Ramesses, ubuntu team is known for modding compiz a bit
[16:15] <Seveas> jedimind, readlink -f /usr/bin/java
[16:15] <Drknezz> arturo, ps3? i'd recommend using nfs if you installed linux on it
[16:15] <Ramesses> Drknezz, that's why i asked if anyone noticed this problem and if i should file a bug on this
[16:15] <jedimind> /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java
[16:15] <Drknezz> arturo, instead of samba
[16:15] <jedimind> crap
[16:15] <oCean_> jedimind: /usr/bin/java is link to /etc/alternatives/java, so it seems, that you update-alternatives have not changed the actual java version?
[16:15] <Seveas> jedimind, there you go :)
[16:15] <jedimind> yeah it doesnt seem like it actually changed it even though i specifically selected it...
[16:16] <max`> moin
[16:16] <Seveas> jedimind, use update-java-alternatives
[16:16] <oliver_> max`, moin
[16:16] <oCean_> jedimind: also check if the update worked "update-alternatives --list java"
[16:16] <arturo> Drknezz ok thank you
[16:17] <Drknezz> arturo, np
[16:17] <Drknezz> !nfs > arturo
[16:17] <jedimind> oCean_: can i msg you for a min?
[16:17] <oCean_> jedimind: sure
[16:17] <arturo> where can i find information for nfs?
[16:17] <ganesh>  fabio: celebroan:  in totem or vlc o mplayer its not playing smoothly..it plays like a slideshow..WMV file is of high quality
[16:17] <Drknezz> arturo, read the pm from ubottu
[16:18] <jelly12gen> arturo: on the ubuntu wiki
[16:18] <Drknezz> ganesh, slow comp?
[16:18] <arturo> thanks
[16:18] <Drknezz> np arturo
[16:18] <arvind_khadri> ganesh, using compiz?
[16:18] <goncalopp> hey people, I'm having some trouble with /dev/input on ubuntu 8.10. There's no output in any of the files, on both my pcs. Anyone knows anything about this?
[16:18] <fabio> ganesh: maybe it's a hd movie and your card is very slow
[16:19] <Drknezz> goncalopp, why are you messing up with that?
[16:19] <goncalopp> I'm trying to make a remote work in ubuntu, but it is recognized as an HID keyboard. i wanted to configure it with lirc, maybe
[16:19] <ganesh>  Drknezz:arvind_khadri:fabio:  ya i am using compiz..mine is not a slow comp..
[16:20] <Drknezz> goncalopp, maybe reading the lirc wiki should help
[16:20] <arvind_khadri> ganesh, turn off compiz and then run the movie
[16:20] <Drknezz> ganesh, really?, mine can play 4 full-screen vids on each cube face no problem
[16:20] <Drknezz> ganesh, even when i rotate the cube
[16:21] <fabio> ganesh: mplayer can tell you why is't so slow
[16:21] <goncalopp> i've been doing that, the problem is, you're supposed to write the name of the device file in the conf, and my device files give no output whatsoever, so it doesn't work
[16:21] <ganesh>  arvind_khadri: how to turn off compiz?
[16:21] <goncalopp> I guess /dev/mice at least should output something when you move your mouse?
[16:22] <ScottG> arvind_khadri: Man this works freakin great!
[16:22] <Drknezz> goncalopp, really?, weird, try doing lshw and look for your IR receiver, if it says "UNCLAIMED", then you got search for a driver
[16:22] <Drknezz> ganesh, metacity --replace
[16:22] <arvind_khadri> ganesh, right click on the desktop , go to the last tab and then set the effects to nill
[16:22] <arvind_khadri> ScottG, :) nice
[16:22] <Drknezz> ganesh, to reactivate: compiz --replace
[16:22] <Drknezz> ganesh, if you want a graphical way to do that, install fusion-icon
[16:23] <JonathanEllis> My scanner was working yesterday morning but in the afternoon it suddenly stopped and xsane reports "No devices available". Any idea why this should suddenly stop working when it was fine before? I have asked this question in #sane but there is no reply. Has anyone here experienced the same problem?
[16:23] <fabio> system -> preferences -> effect -> disable enable
[16:24] <ScottG> arvind_khadri: Do you have that much experience with it? I have a few questions like being able to have it not pause after every scan or recognising text and exporting it as some sort of text file or preferably PDF.
[16:24] <babo> hostname:displaynumber.screennumber ... what's the difference between displaynumber and screennumber ?
[16:24] <HammerHead66> anyone know the flush cashe command for the terminal?
[16:24] <sipior> JonathanEllis: loose cable?
[16:24] <JonathanEllis> sipior: If only!
[16:25] <arvind_khadri> ScottG, aah you can do that when saving the file ,, by specifying the format
[16:25] <sipior> JonathanEllis: i assume you haven't changed anything else on the machine. does dmesg report any strangeness? or anything in /var/log/messages?
[16:26] <arvind_khadri> ScottG, no idea about the pause, i guess its not so advanced as you want it to be :) about the pause part i mean
[16:26] <mustu> hello! i googled but still windering how let my intel Pro wireless 2200 work in my ubutu 8.10
[16:26] <Drknezz> mustu, O.o
[16:26] <Drknezz> mustu, an intel card not working, thats new
[16:26] <Drknezz> mustu, pastebin the output of "lshw"
[16:27] <mustu> yep! i read that broadcom don't work but intel do...
[16:27] <ScottG> arvind_khadri: I tried to save it as a text file and it gave me an error, so i dunno. What did you mean about the pause not being advanced?
[16:27] <ganesh> arvind_khadri: not playing  with compiz off ...i can play in windows..so it must not be a problem with graphics card
[16:27] <Drknezz> ganesh, you installed the nvidia/ati driver?
[16:28] <mustu> Drknezz: http://fpaste.org/paste/6785
[16:29] <goncalopp> Drknezz: I can't seem to find it anywhere in lshw, in lsusb I get "Bus 001 Device 005: ID 06b4:1c70"
[16:30] <Drknezz> mustu, you have a disabled ethernet Nic
[16:30] <ganesh> Drknezz: yes ati driver
[16:31] <Drknezz> ganesh, ati is know to suck A LOT with compiz, so disable it
[16:31] <mustu> Drknezz: I've a single NIC n that's what I am using now! BTW m on dell latitude D610
[16:32] <JonathanEllis> sipior: I havent changed anything else. I dont know what I am looking for in dmesg or /var/log/messages
[16:32] <Drknezz> mustu, srsly? lshw reports it's disabled
[16:32] <oliver_> when I press Ctrl+S in gedit, it shows the dielog to go to a specific line instead of saving the current file
[16:32] <Drknezz> mustu, try ifup -all
[16:32] <JC_Denton_> Can I use f-spot to delete images off my camera?
[16:32] <sipior> JonathanEllis: how is the scanner connected to your machine?
[16:32] <ravn1> hi guys, I wonder if anyone know of any "official" calendars can one can subscribe to to Evolution e.g. with national holidays and such things?
[16:32] <JonathanEllis> sipior: USB
[16:33] <ravn1> I see that the Mac people has this nice iCal share service, but what I can see Evolution can not subscribe to iCal files, or?
[16:33] <sipior> JonathanEllis: does "lsusb" report anything?
[16:34] <Drknezz> mustu, you're done?
[16:34] <mustu> Drknezz: no effect!!
[16:34] <JonathanEllis> sipior: lsusb doesnt change when I plug in or disconnect the scanner
[16:34] <mustu> Drknezz: Device Manager also detects the model but doesn't show it as installed ...
[16:34] <Drknezz> JonathanEllis, then that port must be damaged
[16:35] <Drknezz> mustu, did you try what i sid?
[16:35] <mustu> Drknezz: nor i can see it in network devcies ...only NIC is showed there
[16:35] <mustu> Drknezz: yes i did sudo ifup -all
[16:35] <jared_> How do I get Sd Card Reader to work ?
[16:35] <Drknezz> mustu, sorry it was ifup -a
[16:35] <mustu> Drknezz: actuqally --all
[16:35] <Drknezz> :p
[16:35] <sipior> JonathanEllis: when you plug in the scanner, do any new messages appear through dmesg?
[16:36] <Drknezz> mustu, try dmesg | less
[16:36] <Drknezz> and look for any message related to your diabled nic
[16:37] <Drknezz> Can any op activate conference mode? leave/join messages are annoying
[16:37] <eqisow2> whitehat: you can have up to 64GB in 32bit with the right kernel
[16:37] <sipior> Drknezz: your client can probably filter them out for you
[16:38] <Ero> Does anyone have experience with fdisk not properly reading the c/h/s of ooooooold drives? I know what the values should be, but I don't know whether it's better to use a utility that has better luck recognizing those values automagically or using expert mode to manually set what the values should be.
[16:38] <Drknezz> sipior, i really dont remmber how to use mIRC a lot
[16:38] <mustu> Drknezz: ok what to searchc for in this log file
[16:38] <JonathanEllis> sipior: http://pastebin.com/f37a63663 Here is the output from dmesg after plugging the scanner into a different usb socket at the front of the machine instead of the back. I dont know if they are on the same hub
[16:38] <Drknezz> mustu, try searching for errors regarding intel card
[16:38] <avali> buona sera

[16:39] <teimu> hi #ubuntu. I'm trying to do some hard drive cleaning, and I feel I could do the most work if I knew what folders were really large. Is there an utility that can list the total size of the contents of folders, kinda like df?

[16:41] <Drknezz> teimu, WinDirStat
[16:41] <sipior> JonathanEllis: i don't see any mention of the scanner there. can you try plugging the scanner into another machine, to verify that it is not a problem with the device itself?
[16:41] <JonathanEllis> hdy: Just ask your question
[16:42] <teimu> ahh, yes goncalopp, thats what it is! kept trying looking for dg. thanks!
[16:42] <mustu> Drknezz: http://fpaste.org/paste/6786

[16:44] <Drknezz> Sooke, np, thought you were one of those dirty noob spammers
[16:44] <pseubodot> I've been asked to upgrade a server running Ubuntu 7.04 to current (8.04 LTS minimum) and am running into a lot of problems upgrading even after reading through https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades and friends. Anyone run into something similar?
[16:44] <Drknezz> mustu, y you use fpaste?
[16:44] <Sooke> Drknezz, no, I am not,
[16:45] <Drknezz> Sooke, sorry then
[16:45] <mustu> hmm... well.. I use Fedora too.. that's y i get used to with it
[16:45] <Huufarted> pseubodot: you need to tell us the errors or problems you're having
[16:45] <pseubodot> Since I've run debian boxes before, how likely am I to mess stuff up by pointing my sources to more current stuff and dist-upgrading?
[16:45] <sonja> hey guys I wnat to install the Canon i250 drivers but the shell script wants me to install glib which package has that?
[16:45] <Sooke> Drknezz, I just realized that I have been using Ubuntu since 1 year ago, when I decided to leave other OSes and try to live only with UBuntu, and Now I can not use anything else!!
[16:45] <Drknezz> sonja, DONT touch glib
[16:46] <michiganALIEN> can anyone give me some help getting vbox to work

[16:46] <Drknezz> wrektjet, your repos are messed up
[16:46] <wrektjet> i am thinking i need to create a folder called "common" in the directory but it doesnt allow me
[16:47] <sipior> Drknezz: you're thinking of glibc, i believe
[16:47] <Drknezz> mustu, idk
[16:47] <goncalopp> michiganALIEN: Virtual box? what problem are you having?
[16:47] <sonja> Drkness yes but i guess i will only need the development files which package has that?
[16:47] <pseubodot> Huufarted: 'gutsy' upgrade script fails, can't find 'debian-installer
[16:47] <The_Guy> Hey there, im tyring to setup my printer and ubuntu recognises it as a printing device (lexmark 510 series) and when i print it says processing in the printing jobs dialogue but then just cancels it with no reason. Any ideas?
[16:47] <Drknezz> sonja, try installing build-essential
[16:47] <bromic94> i have a question about installing ubuntu wubi
[16:47] <michiganALIEN> i cannot get vista to install in vbox
[16:47] <mustu> Drknezz: where the cfg files r located for network adapters..
[16:47] <bromic94> i dont think when i uninstalled it it did it correct
[16:47] <goncalopp> michiganALIEN: did you enable VT?
[16:48] <Drknezz> mustu, i think /etc...
[16:48] <michiganALIEN> i am new to vbox i know nothing about it
[16:48] <mustu> Drknezz: hmm. i couldn't find it by locate...
[16:48] <sipior> sonja: have a look at libglib2.0-dev
[16:48] <goncalopp> michiganALIEN: ok. have you created a new VM to install vista on?
[16:48] <bromic94> michiganALIEN: be careful
[16:49] <bromic94> vists can not be isntalled in a vm it goes against EULA
[16:49] <wrektjet> Drknezz: are u saying just try downloading from somewhere else?
[16:49] <michiganALIEN> i have that window open
[16:49] <Drknezz> wrektjet, your repos are sooo screwed up
[16:49] <sonja> anybody elsehaving trouble with the canon i250
[16:49] <bromic94> Drknezz: is that a printer
[16:49] <JC_Denton_> is there any other way to import photo's than f-spot. ubuntu used to just mount the mem card in my camera
[16:49] <goncalopp> bromic94: you actually read the EULA :O ;)
[16:50] <bromic94> sometimes
[16:50] <bromic94> i have printed it out and read it
[16:50] <bromic94> over like a month time
[16:50] <wrektjet> MY repos? i dont follow.
[16:50] <goncalopp> bromic: damn... I guess I should delete my vista VM then :O
[16:50] <Drknezz> mustu, you have a switch truned off somewhere in your lappy
[16:51] <Drknezz> mustu: You around?
[16:51] <michiganALIEN> but then again who cares about that
[16:52] <bromic94> When I install 9.04 alpha through wubi after i uninstall 8.04lts, i get an error occured, incomplete format, for more information please see this log file. the contents of that log file are http://pastebin.com/m26150c71
[16:52] <bromic94> i dont think 8.04 got uninstall properly
[16:52] <goncalopp> michiganALIEN: well, theoretically speaking, installing vista is the same as XP, you need to enable intel-VT on the VM preferences
[16:53] <oliver_> when I press Ctrl+S in gedit, it shows the dialog to go to a specific line instead of saving the current file
[16:53] <oCean_> bromic94: for jaunty discussion/issues, join #ubuntu+1
[16:53] <wrektjet> drknezz: are you just messing with me or are you serious. and what should i do? keep trying diff downlaods?

[16:59] <fearful> connar, remove the ones from the /home directory manually rm command or nautilus.
[16:59] <laeg> i downloaded the lateest source code of pidgin which is a few versions ahead of the repo, can i just replace my current pidgin dir with this new one and .configure it? if so where is my existing pidgin dir?
[16:59] <goncalopp> michiganALIEN: are you in the process of creating the vm?
[16:59] <dimebar> connar: as far as i know it will delete your data; i don't think postgresql will install anything in /home by default
[17:00] <shabgard> I  strated nagios  but in firefox see this message:The requested URL /nagios was not found on this server.
[17:00] <bredoto> dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/head seek=infinity

[17:01] <EvilRoey> hi
[17:01] <EvilRoey> Hello.. So a Server and a Desktop release share the same repositories.  So what does it mean when the Deskop gets EOL'd?  Do security updates come out only for the Server components and not for the Desktop ones (say, GNOME)?
[17:01] <shabgard> I 'm waiting...
[17:01] <_DEL> i am havng a prob with  using package manager, i can open in a terminal, but when i use the menu, it wont accept the password, but my root account is off
[17:01] <CaMason> when using `less` I can page left and right, but when I'm at the left-most `page`, it does line wrapping. Any way to disable this?
[17:01] <fearful> connar, thats why you have to look for the folders in your home directory containing the databases and remove them.
[17:01] <swiper> fearful: no, that's not what i want - i want it to download from firefox i know its possible
[17:01] <fearful> swiper, you need some sort of add-on then it won't do it automatically
[17:03] <shabgard> ubuntu team....saw my problem?
[17:03] <dimebar> connar: purge is what you're after.  if you look in /var/lib/postgresql/ and make sure everything's gone afterwards
[17:03] <_DEL> and all the other apps that reuqire passy are the same
[17:04] <swiper> fearful: sure
[17:04] <swiper> fearful: do you know of one that works
[17:04] <fearful> swiper, um to be honest no, look in the moizilla site
[17:04] <swiper> fearful: i found two that don't work
[17:04] <ScottG> arvind_khadri: Oh,  no i meant that it does pause after each scan when im using the feeder. It stops to show me what it scanned and then wants me to save it. I want it to scan everything and then let me do stuff with each
[17:05] <shabgard> I started nagios but saw this message:The requested URL /nagios was not found on this server.
[17:05] <arvind_khadri> ScottG, no idea about it
[17:05] <shabgard> please help me....
[17:05] <fearful> swiper, sorry I use transmission
[17:05] <shabgard> I 'm waiting....
[17:06] <rreyes> Hi all... any good mysql frontend for Ubuntu?
[17:06] <connar> dimebar: what i have in /var/lib/postgres is a main folder and two file - .bash_history and .psql_history
[17:06] <shabgard> I'm waiting for your response
[17:06] <arvind_khadri> rreyes, mysql is best with CLI
[17:06] <HammerHead66> shabgard:what up man ?
[17:06] <goncalopp> shabgard: I don't know about nagios, is it some kind of php script? are you checking your apache conf for the right directory?
[17:07] <kdubois> i have a bunch of python modules that exit poorly from their install scripts, and its really crippled my python install. is there an "apt-get remove-no-matter-what" command?
[17:07] <connar> dimebar: so i need to ensure that there is no folder by the name postgres? are the databases also stored at the same location?
[17:07] <petur> hey!
[17:07] <shabgard> I don't know exactly..
[17:07] <nhdcj> ?
[17:07] <rreyes> arvind_khadri: Sure. Still, I prefer a good GUI for the common things I do in my work. I like sqlYog but seems like it doesn't have a linux version
[17:08] <nhdcj> ??
[17:08] <petur> Hi! I need help installing this application: http://networkedmediatank.com/showthread.php?tid=13161&page=1 it says in the description that i can  use Linux, with Mono. But how do i do it? Help appricated. Hope someone can check it out.
[17:08] <tj83> can someone make a recommendation for a photo editor that compares to Jasc paint shop pro?
[17:08] <shabgard> But  I know That is start
[17:08] <kdubois> i need pysupport, but pysupport won't install because other things are failing because they dont have pysupport :(
[17:09] <goncalopp> shabgard: what url are you using to access it?
[17:09] <shabgard> http://<IP_ADDRESS>/nagios
[17:10] <shabgard> <IP_ADDRESS> is my nagios server..
[17:10] <shabgard> But <IP_ADDRESS> is local
[17:10] <goncalopp> shabgard: you're sure the server is properly configured, and that you can reach it?
[17:11] <shabgard> I used this link:http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/quickstart-ubuntu.html
[17:12] <tj83> can someone make a recommendation for a photo editor that compares to Jasc paint shop pro?
[17:12] <shabgard> I dont Know exactli but Know this is started...
[17:13] <Myrtti> tj83: free/open source or anything that runs in Linux?
[17:13] <rreyes> Any good mysql gui frontend for Ubuntu?
[17:13] <A-KO> rreyes: mysql -u -p ?
[17:13] <tj83> Myrtti, preferably free/open
[17:13] <shabgard> what do i do?
[17:13] <goncalopp> shabgard: I am by no means an apache expert, but make sure you completed step 5, that would seem what is missing
[17:14] <goncalopp> shabgard: otherwise, I really don't know
[17:14] <rreyes> A-KO: I know, I know... but I am looking for a GUI frontend
[17:14] <Myrtti> tj83: a) get to know gimp b) try Paintshop Pro with wine c) pixel32
[17:14] <oCean_> shabgard: you followed that link? But nagios is in the repositories!
[17:14] <oCean_> !info nagios
[17:14] <arvind_khadri> tj83, gimp
[17:14] <oCean_> !info nagios3
[17:14] <shabgard> :(( thanks ...
[17:14] <iinb3> cool
[17:14] <wrektjet> newbie question: how do i do this:Once you have the needed libraries installed, build and install by running: $ python setup.py build $ sudo python setup.py install
[17:15] <oCean_> shabgard: So to prevent any further issues, you might want to install from repos
[17:15] <tj83> ya.... i have been using gimp... but it doesnt have some of the nice auto adjust macro's arvind_khadri Myrtti
[17:15] <wrektjet> how do i run those scrips
[17:15] <Myrtti> wrektjet: what are you trying to install?
[17:15] <A-KO> rreyes: You could always wine + sqlyog
[17:15] <wrektjet> new deluge client
[17:15] <oCean_> shabgard: however, themessage ".." not found on this server usually means that the directory can not be found from the defined DocumentRoot
[17:15] <goncalopp> wrektjet: in the console, just go to the directory you're building and run it with ./
[17:16] <rreyes> A-KO: Wine seems not to work as expected when virtualizing, like I am right now
