[16:15] <LjL> mrwes: i don't know. look, how about you just put a >> redirect to some file in /tmp or something, right into the clamdscan command line in incron
[16:15] <istvan> wireshark is a really good packet sniffer
[16:15] <LjL> mrwes: (and use -v for verbose)
[16:15] <moller_> istvan: Can it focus on 1 app, like firefox? So it would only record packets from firefox?
[16:15] <mrwes> LjL, yah...
[16:15] <istvan> moller_ i have not used it in quite some time, so I don't know. but give it a shot, i think it is in the repos
[16:15] <osotogari> anyone used rdesktop before?
[16:16] <doleyb> moller_: You can do that, its not like you'll have anything else eating port 80 packets
[16:16] <xcv> doleyb: it worked in XP, but not vista...  apps that may support cam, stumbled upon by googling: aMSN, Gyachi, kopete, skype
[16:16] <xcv> as i am not familiar with these apps, i am looking for one that is known to be functional,
[16:16] <xcv> and is still being patched if/when critical vulnerabilities are discovered
[16:16] <xcv>  And no, haven't specifically googled for *working* linux systems with similar hardware
[16:16] <FloodBot3> xcv: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:16] <moller_> istvan: Aye, it is. Already messed around with it, but it looked very advanced and confusing. I'll keep on messing with it
[16:16] <istvan> the docs are good moller_
[16:17] <ubuntu_is_dabest> hm, i got confused on setting fstab
[16:17] <voyagi> How do I wipe a whole partition the easiest way?
[16:17] <moller_> doleyb: Well for some reason, it keeps on recording various stuff even though I'm not doing anything in firefox, which is weird.
[16:17] <xcv> oops, floodbot3 shook waved its finger at me. sorry.
[16:17] <istvan> ok, afk for a while, bibi

[16:48] <Te_Gek> no right clicking, maybe it makes a difference that I have a edubuntu setup here. Im on the server logged in with administrator rights
[16:48] <jrib> Te_Gek: hold on, let me add one...
[16:49] <jrib> Te_Gek: right clicking gives me a context menu :/
[16:49] <Te_Gek> yes but here only item in that menu is 'execute'
[16:49] <Te_Gek> is there some config file where I could find these settings?
[16:50] <Lint>  DieseL`on is it because of "read-only filesystem"?
[16:50] <jrib> Te_Gek: can you add a new one?
[16:50] <DieseL`on> where is that set Lint ?
[16:50] <Joikus> my ubuntu keeps crashing randomly
[16:50] <Te_Gek> right clicking somewhere else in the panel you mean? No only gives me panel info or help

[16:51] <DieseL`on> Lint sorry?
[16:52] <jrib> Te_Gek: right click on a blank piece of the panel, you don't get "add to panel"?
[16:52] <Te_Gek> No, someone else installed this system maybe they removed these options? I should find a config file I think no?
[16:52] <DieseL`on> Lint i'm using a different login for security reasons, but it has the same permissions as my login on the folders & shares

[17:11] <temp01> Cerrdor: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/qgrubeditor-linux-unix-grub-gui-editor.png << but something that runs on windows
[17:11] <xcv> eseven73: i'm inclined to agree with that assumption
[17:11] <Dreamglider> Avinash, /server irc.freenode.net
[17:12] <xlq> (press - to mark the package for removal and gg to actually remove it)
[17:12] <Cerrdor> temp01, why not run VMware?
[17:12] <Toaster_> okay thanks ill try that!
[17:12] <Matty265> Does somebody know if the Plantronics GameCom 777 works under Ubuntu? Need Help!
[17:13] <RickZilla> I've been using ubuntu on a partitioned drive on my laptop, and now I'm ready to completely erase windows and use ubuntu full time.  Is there a way I can back up all of the changes, files, etc...before I reinstall ubuntu?  I'd like to not have to do all of that by hand again.  Thanks in advance for your help.
[17:13] <temp01> cerrdor: running a full linux distro just for one simple menu editor is kinda too much
[17:13] <eternal> xlq: http://pastebin.com/d47773a28 I found the lines it excecutes and took that function
[17:13] <emma> YixilTesiphon: Try this, sudo lshw | less
[17:14] <aar> RickZilla, use a livecd to access your unmounted partitions and use rsync to copy them to an external drive
[17:14] <Cerrdor> temp01, you do realize your in a Linux room not a windows room looking for linux programs on windows correct?
[17:14] <emma> YixilTesiphon: oh looks like you go it already.
[17:14] <archman> Will 9.04 come with a xfce4.6 available in reps?
[17:14] <Matty265> Does somebody know if the Plantronics GameCom 777 works under Ubuntu? Need Help!
[17:14] <aar> RickZilla, make sure the partitions are unmounted, so everything is copied correctly (and you can exclude the /dev directory from the copy)
[17:14] <temp01> Cerrdor: well, menu.lst is a grub file used on linux.. maybe there's a cross-platform menu editor?
[17:14] <Cerrdor> no
[17:14] <Frxstrem> has 9.04 been released yet?
[17:14] <Cerrdor> ask in the windows room
[17:15] <archman> Frxstrem, just beta
[17:15] <Cerrdor> this is for ubuntu specific questions
[17:15] <eseven73> I'm trying to add my external hdd to fstab, should I just use defaults for the "options" field? for read/write access or should I add more to that?
[17:15] <Frxstrem> ok, any ideas when the stable will come?
[17:15] <archman> !jaunty

[17:15] <temp01> Cerrdor: alright, thanks :)
[17:15] <ubuntu_is_dabest> how do i restart clamd daemon after changing configuration file of clamd?
[17:16] <Frxstrem> ok, thanks :D
[17:16] <bjarkef> aar: do you have some kind of checksum of the dvd, or do you have the original image the dvd was created from?

[17:17] <ghang> hi,i face a probelm, i install too much library then sudenly my debian cannot connect to internet, i guess i need to reconfigure my networkcard or reinstall network card , how can i do that ?
[17:17] <Matty265> Does somebody know if the Plantronics GameCom 777 works under Ubuntu? Need Help!
[17:17] <jelly12gen> enndy: what problem
[17:17] <DieseL`on> http://pastebin.com/m6c1a6071 <<-- I can't write to these mounts, Windows user has read/write permissions, what is missing?
[17:17] <bjarkef> aar: Then you don't have anything to check the dvds integrity with. You could check every fild on the disk if you have the files somewhere else?
[17:17] <oCean_> !askthebot > rkaiser_ufrj
[17:17] <emma> ghang: you should ask about that in #debian. This is #ubuntu for ubuntu support.
[17:18] <eseven73> aar ok ty
[17:18] <aar> bjarkef, nope I haven't got a copy of the original file. I was thinking more along the lines of something that would check eacg file and give an output if it was found to be corrupt.
[17:18] <ghang> emma , no answer in debian channel
[17:18] <jelly12gen> enndy: what problem
[17:19] <xlq> eternal: let's check the simple things first: http://rafb.net/p/J4UtWH24.html
[17:19] <rkaiser_ufrj> !askthebot

[17:19] <ghang> :-(well emma i think a network install probelm ubuntu and debian was same ??   maybe i am wrong
[17:19] <dcamp25> totem crashes when I play a mp3 any ideas
[17:19] <Cerrdor> Matty265, you still there?,
[17:20] <n8tuserf> who has run an AP with plenty of users accessing the AP?  how many users max have you observed connecting to you? and at what speed they average at?
[17:20] <xlq> dcamp25: I'm not very familiar with totem, but you could try other media players such as xine, vlc, mplayer if you want
[17:20] <bjarkef> aar: So running each file trough an mp3 decoder and check if there is any errors. Could properly be done, I don't know of any application that does that though, sorry.
[17:20] <dcamp25> xlq  they do the same vlc crashes also
[17:20] <aar> bjarkef, ok np
[17:20] <xlq> dcamp25: Really? that's strange!
[17:21] <poppler> mmh why does "uname -a" report 2.6.27-generic?? Did I get the wrong install CD? I meant to have i386
[17:21] <Matty265> sure
[17:21] <Lint> i386 and i686 are not in Ubuntu
[17:21] <leprkhn> i386 is about as generic as it gets

[17:21] <Matty265> @ Cerrdor, sry i was AFK
[17:21] <RickZilla> aar:  Is that for backing up the Windows files?  I've already done that.  I'd like to just back up the changes, etc... from this current ubuntu install
[17:22] <xcv> n8userf: plenty of users is subjective... you talking tens, hundreds, thousands?
[17:22] <Cerrdor> Matty265, np do you already have the headset?

[17:23] <guma_> oi
[17:23] <amon__> anything broken right now or is it safe to restart for me
[17:23] <jrib> maxagaz: what do you want to do exactly?
[17:23] <xlq> maxagaz: because it's a stupid command
[17:23] <Matty265> why?
[17:23] <Cerrdor> unless you contact plantronics and get the drivers
[17:23] <incorrect> has anyone here used openoffice base with mysql?
[17:23] <xlq> maxagaz: printf doesn't read from its input
[17:23] <xlq> incorrect: yes
[17:23] <guma_> algem do brail ai
[17:23] <aar> RickZilla, rsync would be great for that as well. It is incremental, which means it doesn't waste time copying files that haven't changed, as long as you select the same destination when creating the backup-
[17:23] <guma_> brazil
[17:23] <Matty265> but it works with the drivers?

[17:24] <eternal> it was foo then it went to foo.c
[17:24] <xlq> ubuntu_is_dabest: probably /etc/init.d/clamd restart
[17:24] <RickZilla> aar:  Thanks for the help, I'll google it to see where to go from there.
[17:24] <aar> bjarkef, great -- i'll check it out

[17:24] <DieseL`on> erf
[17:24] <xlq> incorrect: although I haven't used mysql for a while now
[17:24] <incorrect> stupid openoffice not telling me what the problem is
[17:24] <Matty265> Cerrdor, does it work with the drivers?
[17:24] <xlq> eternal: right, so I'm not sure what the problem is :(
[17:25] <xlq> eternal: what package are you trying to build?
[17:25] <maxagaz> xlq, jrib : i need to do a grep of foo in a text file, set a counter, and color strings matching 'bar'

[17:26] <jrib> maxagaz: try #bash
[17:26] <BCampbell> xlq, amarok seems to choke on load, 35K+ mp3s in collection, Pan seems to time out on me all the time

[17:27] <n8tuserf> xcv am requesting info on who has run a single AP in community like a library or bistro? how many users connected maximum?
[17:27] <xlq> BCampbell: not sure about newsreaders; also not sure on your requirements for a media player either. Maybe xmss suits you?
[17:28] <ubuntu_is_dabest> xlq: i did
[17:28] <xlq> ubuntu_is_dabest: what happened?
[17:28] <Lint> is there a channel for programming in Linux?
[17:28] <ubuntu_is_dabest> same
[17:28] <BCampbell> xlq, I'll look into the xmss thanks
[17:28] <CanSum1Help> Lint: there are lots
[17:28] <CanSum1Help> try by the language
[17:28] <CanSum1Help> like #python
[17:29] <xlq> BCampbell: xmms
[17:29] <xcv> n8tuserf: while there may be someone here who has experience with that, this probably isn't the proper forum as that's not an ubuntu related issue... i'd recommend deciding max users you want to support and then implement a solution rated for that kind of traffic...

[17:30] <archman> Cerrdor, really? via ppa?
[17:30] <xlq> eternal: does your build directory have sufficient permissions?
[17:31] <Cerrdor> archman, via xubuntu desktop
[17:31] <xcv> nttuserf: most consumer grade APs don't have a large enough buffer to handle dozens of users gracefully. you'd probably want to look at cisco air solution or similar for supporting dozens of users concurrently
[17:31] <jee-kang> ANYONE CAN HELP?
[17:31] <aar> jee-kang, just ask your question (no need to ask whether you can ask)
[17:31] <jee-kang> cant make powertop changes permanent, somebody have an idea?
[17:31] <archman> Cerrdor, hmm...I've switched to xfce by installing xfce4 package (and deps). So I need to remove it and install xubuntu-desktop?
[17:31] <jee-kang> thanks aar

[17:32] <Cerrdor> archman, let me investigate

[17:32] <aar> jee-kang, hasve you tried the manual? man powertop ?
[17:32] <archman> Cerrdor, hmm...but I don't want all bunch of crap it gives as dependency :-/

[17:36] <jee-kang> aar options like USB, CD ROm polling etc?

[17:38] <archman> jrib, who knows when will the xfce 4.6 be available for intrepid? Who is packaging it?
[17:38] <Cerrdor> is there a bot room on ubuntu servers or a scripting room?

[17:39] <aar> jee-kang, you might consider scripting your options and running the script instead of the executable? (i haven't used powertop, so i'm not sure whether this is in fact viable)
[17:39] <jrib> Cerrdor: these aren't ubuntu servers, you're on freenode.  There are plenty of scripting rooms.  Usually #name_of_language
[17:39] <rehpic> argh
[17:40] <rehpic> damn ronaldo to hell

[17:41] <rehpic> xlq, how can I set my external to get mounted as root?
[17:41] <jee-kang> :)
[17:41] <aar> mgco, never heard of any cases with linux
[17:41] <xlq> krishnan: of course
[17:41] <hkais> hello
[17:41] <krishnan> xlq: thank you
[17:41] <hkais> i have troubles with java/eclipse under ubuntu x64
[17:42] <hkais> it reports, that i have to many files open?!!?
[17:42] <krishnan> xlq: can u suggest a way to install ubuntu hardy with out a CDROM. i read the docs but they are confusing
[17:42] <hkais> how many files do you have open (sudo lsof|wc -l)
[17:42] <aar> jee-kang, another option is not to switch the PC off, but to hibernate (leaving powertop running), so each time you resume the system, the software will carry on running with the options you had before closong down.
[17:42] <jadams_> I'd like to read my mail from a POP server locally using alpine.  Can someone explain how I do this?  Basically, I want to pull the mail from my POP to my local machine, right?

[17:43] <nillo> How do I name a workspace?  Used to be able to do it, can't now.
[17:43] <xlq> krishnan: well it's a bit difficult without an existing Linux installation. You'll have to boot off another medium, such as a floppy disk, usb stick or from a network (modern BIOSes only)
[17:43] <sfalangaf> I have a support issue regarding sound.  Is this a good place to ask?
[17:43] <xlq> nillo: what window manager?
[17:44] <nillo> xlq: whatever the default is for Ubuntu 8.10
[17:44] <jee-kang> aar the hybernating stopped working awhile ago.. it says not enough memory..it did before.. anyways thanks man
[17:44] <mgco> aar: same here. up until now. that's why i'm asking. and of course linux's reputation on the line -- i've tried convincing my friends to switch to ubuntu since i've left windoze last year, and now ubuntu itself is easily infected without a solution at hand??? not good, not good at all.
[17:44] <krishnan> xlq: wat do u think about the ubuntu 9.04?
[17:44] <sfalangaf> I have an  HP HDX9000 running Ubuntu 8.10 and EVERYTHING works except sound.  The controls all show sound on but not a peep.  Can anyone assist?
[17:45] <aar> mgco, what is the infection? what did you use to detect it?
[17:45] <xlq> sfalangaf: does your mixer show the correct device name?
[17:45] <incorrect> what other sql design tools are there?  other than vi
[17:45] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: is the volumn turned up
[17:45] <sfalangaf> thie: yes
[17:46] <sfalangaf> xlq: the mixer shows several device names
[17:46] <xlq> sfalangaf: does sound work on another distro or operating system?
[17:46] <sfalangaf> Yes, Vista
[17:46] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: is your sound card seclected
[17:46] <sfalangaf> xlq: yes vista
[17:46] <aar> jee-kang, that sounds like you're trying to hybernate to RAM without having a swap partition.
[17:46] <xlq> sfalangaf: make sure you're playing through the correct device
[17:46] <sfalangaf> thie: yes
[17:46] <mgco> aar: the infection was detected by bios (tvac something... trendmicro)
[17:47] <sfalangaf> xlq, Thie: hang on I'll capture the lspci output
[17:47] <jee-kang> aar do you know how to make a swap partition?
[17:47] <aar> mgco, bios is a small bit of software used to boot your machine. it cannot detect an infection by itself.
[17:47] <sfalangaf> There are several "sound cards" on this thing apparently.
[17:47] <jee-kang> or not hybernate to ram?
[17:47] <Briandb1222> Help anyone. My mouse disappears when I hover it over the Wine app.
[17:47] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: which sound card do you use
[17:48] <sfalangaf> What's the name of that site where you cut'npaste stuff so you don't DOS the channel?

[17:49] <aar> jee-kang, no
[17:49] <jee-kang> aar 8.10?
[17:49] <sfalangaf> Thanks xlq
[17:49] <nikitis> i have the dell modified ubuntu  for the dell mini 9.  8.04.  will it screw up things if I were to upgrade?
[17:50] <sfalangaf> going there now.
[17:50] <aar> jee-kang, why do you ask? it shouldn't make a difference when creating a swap space
[17:50] <jee-kang> just wondering if its worth updating... since you seem to know a lot..
[17:50] <Briandb1222> Help anyone. My mouse disappears when I hover it over the Wine app. Any ideas how I can fix it?
[17:50] <jee-kang> aar
[17:50] <jee-kang> thanx anyway
[17:50] <m1dlg> how do i change the owner of all drives in /media/?? ?
[17:50] <mgco> aar: bios or cmos, it's what runs before grub shows
[17:50] <sfalangaf> http://paste.ubuntu.com/145019/
[17:51] <RickZilla> !backup
[17:51] <aar> jee-kang, sorry, can't help you there. :)

[17:51] <ktebit> is there a way to check to see the date a partition was formatted or created?
[17:51] <jee-kang> aar do i need a swap? can't I just hybernate normally on hd?
[17:51] <sfalangaf> xlq, thie: there are TWO audio devices
[17:51] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: #7
[17:51] <ktebit> how to put it back?
[17:51] <ktebit> i always turn off hiding "special" files
[17:51] <sfalangaf> This b*(*h has 5.1, ugh
[17:52] <aar> mgco, correct, and it is impossible to detect an infection using your bios. what i was wondering is: what is the name of the virus you say you have? what antivirus software did you use to detect it? and when did you become aware you had it?
[17:52] <ktebit> anyone
[17:52] <ktebit> ?
[17:52] <sfalangaf> thie: check out #24 too though.
[17:52] <b4ckb0ne> hi! is there a program that reads a logfile while it is changing?(server log)
[17:52] <thiebaude> ok
[17:52] <Briandb1222> Help anyone.
[17:52] <Briandb1222> b0ne: use the terminal
[17:52] <joao>  /join #ubuntu-es
[17:53] <Briandb1222> #ubuntu-wine
[17:53] <Briandb1222> whoops
[17:53] <ktebit>  ntfs
[17:53] <ktebit> is there a way to check to see the date a partition was formatted or created?
[17:53] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: but which one is your main sound card
[17:53] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: check out #24 too
[17:53] <thiebaude> yup
[17:53] <ktebit> how can I turn off hidden files????
[17:53] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: is there any way to tell?
[17:53] <aar> jee-kang, in order to hybernate to RAM you normally need a swap space, so the system has enough space to save an image file it can read when resuming. the error message "not enough space" when hybernating is usually a symptom that you don't have enough memory to save that image file (which can often be solved by creatin / increasing the swap space).
[17:53] <m1dlg> how do i change the owner of all drives in /media/?? ? or better still how do I make my user ID default admin of mount, umount, propertys etc
[17:53] <b4ckb0ne> Briandb1222: what do i have to type?
[17:53] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: intel
[17:54] <rookiehwm> b4ckb0ne: tail -f /location/of/logfile
[17:54] <jee-kang> aar understand...thankx
[17:54] <PerryArmstrong> is it safe to upgrade to jaunty
[17:54] <Heero> hi
[17:54] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: you have an intel onboard sound card
[17:54] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: I'll paste my lsmod output if you think that'd help.
[17:54] <thiebaude> ok
[17:54] <aar> jee-kang, np
[17:54] <JarG0n> My titlebars in Intrepid don't always draw the brown color correctly, and end up half white most of the time.  Any suggestions to the cause?
[17:54] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: it looks like all the modules I should need are loaded.
[17:54] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: one sec
[17:55] <thiebaude> ok
[17:55] <ktebit> YOU  you can toggle "hidden" files from being shown ????
[17:55] <Heero> is it save to use 9.04?
[17:55] <eseven73> PerryArmstrong, upgrades are generally bad, especially with betas, it's better to do a reinstall, but back up all your data first if you do
[17:55] <m1dlg> how do I make my user ID default admin of mount, umount, propertys etc read write etc
[17:55] <aar> ktebit, in console, use the option -a to show all files (e.g. ls -a). that will show hidden files as well.

[17:57] <sfalangaf> theibaude: the sound just doesn't work!  It's not muted, it's up plenty loud.
[17:57] <rehpic> oh bah
[17:57] <rehpic> my damn printer wont work
[17:57] <aar> Abueleitor, you need to specify the network name and password (if using encryption)
[17:57] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: go into sound properties and select intel
[17:57] <Krine11> Hi
[17:57] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: okay

[17:58] <Abueleitor> i tried that way, but nothing happened
[17:58] <aar> Abueleitor, the syntax is for the password : sudo iwconfig key PASSWORD
[17:58] <Mion> Krine11: get a 64bit version of gfire
[17:58] <Krine11> ok
[17:58] <aar> Abueleitor, have you tried sudo dhclient ?
[17:58] <Krine11> it will work than?
[17:58] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: there are 9 choices
[17:59] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: there are 4 intel choices
[17:59] <Mion> aar: that's only for wep
[17:59] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: sound preferences>devices>test
[17:59] <aar> Mion, what is only for wep?
[17:59] <Abueleitor> i mean,  its not a configuration problem, cos i have a open network and cannot connect. I have dchp enabled too.
[17:59] <Krine11> Mion, Thanks so much also does this mean i have a 64 bit verson of linux?
[17:59] <Mion> aar: iwconfig key s:whatever
[18:00] <aar> Mion, yes
[18:00] <Mion> you need wpa_supplicant for wpa
[18:00] <PerryArmstrong> eseven73??
[18:00] <mgco> aar: i'm getting a different message now: to boot from another floppy disk, replace the infected..... gibberish
[18:00] <aar> Abueleitor, what is the output of dhclient?

[18:01] <coolz> can i create wireless bridge with my laptop ubuntu 8.10
[18:01] <alexmhso> hi i have a quick problem. I can not find where ubuntu will automatically mount my ipod. If needed to know, I'm trying to install rockbox but it needs my mount point.
[18:01] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: I've tried all of them now including both the analog and digital Intel and the sound test plays nothing.
[18:01] <Levandia> My Java is ridiculously slow. Any suggestions?
[18:01] <Krine11> Hi i downloaded gfire the 64 bit deb file but still recive the error
[18:01] <Krine11> error : wrong architecture 'amd64'
[18:02] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: is there an autodetect feature
[18:02] <sfalangaf> thiebaude:  the analog ones fail with an error but the digital options make the sound thingy with visual but NO SOUND
[18:02] <backb0ne> rookiehwm: thx
[18:02] <Manny2218> Hey, another question.  On the installer if i choose "use largest continuous free space" will it install in unallocated space?
[18:02] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: yes, I've tried the auto detect one too.  Nothing.
[18:02] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: im running out of ideas
[18:03] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: I've scoured the net looking for solution(s) and others are having this problem with older HDX laptops.
[18:03] <aar> mgco, i've never come across anything of the sort (and I still can't quite understand how your PC can detect an infection even before botting into a system). anyway, if you're really concerned, wipe the hard drive and start from scratch. you might want to get someone to have a look at it first though (in case it can be saved).
[18:03] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: did you have the sound issue before?
[18:03] <Mion> Krine11: uname -m
[18:03] <toomuchespresso> rehpic: you can find them in the synaptic package manager
[18:03] <PerryArmstrong> whats everybodys opinion of upgrading to jaunty now??
[18:03] <sfalangaf> No, just installed Ubuntu for the first time.
[18:03] <rocko> is there a disk space monitor for gnome panel?
[18:03] <Mion> PerryArmstrong: do it
[18:03] <Levandia> PerryArmstrong: don't do it with an Intel graphics card.
[18:03] <xbisont> Hi! where can I get some help with the Jaunty beta?
[18:03] <Krine11> mion what ddi you say?
[18:03] <WebcamWonder> PerryArmstrong: Hold off, it is still in beta
[18:03] <dori> hi, I installed kubuntu-desktop through apt-get, and it pulled in all the dependencies, however now that I want remove it, apt-get remove doesn't uninstall the dependencies, is there another command to do that?
[18:03] <rehpic> toomuchespresso, I just tried to apt get them and it failed
[18:03] <thiebaude> PerryArmstrong: i did, but i have problems
[18:03] <Krine11> how do i unname m
[18:03] <alexmhso> hi i have a quick problem. I can not find where ubuntu will automatically mount my ipod. If needed to know, I'm trying to install rockbox but it needs my mount point.
[18:03] <sfalangaf> thiebuade: just installed Ubuntu for the first time on this hardware.
[18:03] <WebcamWonder> !jaunty | xbisont
[18:03] <aar> Abueleitor, the command is sudo dhclient (it asks the server to assign you an IP address, which you need to get connected).
[18:03] <Mion> Krine11: open a termina, write `uname -m` press enter
[18:04] <Mion> terminal*
[18:04] <Manny2218> does any one know the answer?
[18:04] <Abueleitor> ok thx
[18:04] <sfalangaf> thiebuade: is there an "official" support channel for this sort of thing?
[18:04] <Mion> Manny2218: yes
[18:04] <Manny2218> it will? thanks
[18:04] <sfalangaf> Can I /pay/ for support from Connonical?
[18:04] <Krine11> ok it says i686
[18:04] <Mion> Manny2218: that's what it says it will
[18:04] <chian_xi_seo> hello
[18:04] <mgco> aar: i guess it's called "boot virus detection" on one's cmos
[18:04] <Mion> Krine11: then you need the 32bit version
[18:04] <PerryArmstrong> Mion, Levandia, WebcamWonder, thiebaude, i upgraded to intrepid the other day and i have intel graphics card and still now afterlots of effort i couldn't get my displays right
[18:05] <coolz> anyone has experience setting up wireless bridge with laptop Ubuntu 8.10
[18:05] <Krine11> can you give me a link for the 32 bit version?
[18:05] <Manny2218> alright, cause i have 40gb of unallocated space on one of the hard drives and i wanna install it there
[18:05] <chian_xi_seo> i'm using ubuntu 9.04 beta on a vaio laptop and i have problems with intel video card (its slow....) any idea  ?
[18:05] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: you still there?
[18:05] <JarG0n> My titlebars in Intrepid don't always draw the brown color correctly, and end up half white most of the time.  Any suggestions to the cause?
[18:05] <Mion> Krine11: it's 'comming soon'
[18:05] <aar> mgco, bot virus detection is a misnomer. will just stop anything writing to the boot sector, virus or not. It's not a virus scanner in reality.
[18:05] <thiebaude> PerryArmstrong: yea, i can only use 2.6.24-24 generic kernel on 9.04
[18:05] <Krine11> ok, how about downloading a older version?
[18:05] <Levandia> PerryArmstrong: DON'T go to Jaunty until it is released then.
[18:05] <thiebaude> yup still here
[18:05] <Levandia> Your Intel graphics will make you cry.
[18:05] <Mion> Krine11: see if you can find a 3.rd party .deb of 0.8
[18:06] <PerryArmstrong> Levandia; its come at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/jaunty/beta
[18:06] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: im not sure how to fix your sound issue
[18:06] <Levandia> PerryArmstrong: it's not released yet.
[18:06] <bigo72> hi guys, how to disable ipv6 in 9.04?
[18:06] <rocko> is there a disk space monitor for gnome panel?
[18:06] <Mion> Krine11: or build your own .deb from source
[18:06] <Krine11> ok
[18:06] <Levandia> Beta does not mean released, PerryArmstrong.
[18:06] <nillo> Does anyone know how to rename a workspace?  I used to be able to do it, but can't now.
[18:06] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: thanks for the help.  Do you think the 32 bit version might be worth a try?
[18:06] <Krine11> ok
[18:06] <Mion> rocko: #gnome
[18:06] <thiebaude> PerryArmstrong: and i have the intel 815
[18:06] <m1dlg> how to I have my user permissons restored to default
[18:06] <PerryArmstrong> Levandia; so if i wait will it be sure that they'll fix for intel also??
[18:06] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: try and see
[18:06] <sfalangaf> thiebaude:I hate running 32bit on a 64bit machine but......
[18:06] <melkart> is the automatic daily-live cd image generation turned off during weekend?
[18:07] <Levandia> PerryArmstrong: you can't be sure but it'll be a higher probability.
[18:07] <chian_xi_seo> so any idea about intel gma slow performance on ubuntu 9.04 ?
[18:07] <Levandia> I do.
[18:07] <Levandia> Join #ubuntu+1.
[18:07] <Levandia> The drivers for Intel are destroyed.
[18:07] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: you said you have 8.10?
[18:07] <PerryArmstrong> Levandia; this sounds really bad if they dont fix it atleast in jaunty....
[18:07] <Levandia> They're completely useless.
[18:07] <Levandia> PerryArmstrong: they probably will, don't worry.
[18:07] <bigo72> I can't find /etc/modprobe.d/aliases in Jaunty, how can I disable IPV6?
[18:07] <m1dlg> how to I have my user permissions restored to default
[18:07] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: yes
[18:07] <usser> Levandia, works great for me
[18:07] <chian_xi_seo> is it possible to use old drivers ? was perfect in 8.10...
[18:07] <PerryArmstrong> Levandia; thats a good assuarance..
[18:07] <usser> Levandia, what card do you have?
[18:07] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: do you want to upgrade to 9.04
[18:07] <Manny2218> okay i got my answer, thanks for all of the help!
[18:07] <Levandia> usser: 945GME.
[18:08] <troy_> is there a channel for questions about DNS?
[18:08] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: if it's stable enough
[18:08] <PerryArmstrong> Levandia; any idea how i can downgrade to hardy from intrepid??
[18:08] <WebcamWonder> troy_: #network
[18:08] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: is it out yet?
[18:08] <troy_> thanks
[18:08] <usser> Levandia, i got GM965, perfomance in openGL has increased dramatically for me
[18:08] <Levandia> usser: I'm going to tell you right now, the people at #ubuntu+1 and the driver guys said the driver is destroyed, usser.
[18:08] <bigo72> PerryArmstrong, reinstallation ;-)
[18:08] <silmel> Sou iniciante,  como instalo programas no ubuntu como o Programa do IRRF
[18:08] <Levandia> But there are different cards and some work better than others.
[18:09] <troy_> nobody over there WebCamWonder
[18:09] <bigo72> I can't find /etc/modprobe.d/aliases in Jaunty, how can I disable IPV6?
[18:09] <PerryArmstrong> bigo72; sounds bad
[18:09] <WebcamWonder> troy_: Oops, it is ##networking
[18:09] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: its out
[18:10] <chian_xi_seo> i'm damned, dual screen works fine in 9.04 but slow performance... and in 8.10 dual screen does not works properly but performance are good :)
[18:10] <Manny2218> wait, i forgot one more question. Will it auto detect the largest amount of unallocated space between 2 hard drives?
[18:10] <thiebaude> its buggy for some intel users
[18:10] <troy_> thanks
[18:11] <Varath> Hello all, I recently installed compiz but I don't know how I can get it running.. Does anyone know?
[18:11] <Manny2218> any one know the answer?
[18:12] <WebcamWonder> Varath: System -> Preferences -> Appearance  -> Visual Effects -> Medium/High
[18:12] <xlq> chian_xi_seo: iirc there is more than one way to do dual screens - mergedfb, xinerama etc. - maybe the different Ubuntu versions used different ones?
[18:12] <Manny2218> any one?
[18:12] <PerryArmstrong> thiebaude; and i am planning to buy a graphic card...
[18:12] <LogicFan> I need some help troubleshooting ALSA.  I'm using 8.10 64bit and a dell m1330 laptop with intel audio.  I have to restart ALSA every couple of hours, sometimes more or less depending on what i'm doing that makes it crash.  usually, the app producing the audio stops playing the audio and a repeated skipping sound will occur until I sudo /sbin/alsa force-reload followed by a /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[18:13] <thiebaude> PerryArmstrong: i need a new computer, eventually
[18:13] <LogicFan> all apps that can play audio are effective at crashing ALSA it seems.  VLC, Banshee, Flash plugin, Miro, Totem, et al
[18:14] <chian_xi_seo> i dont know, i always used gnome-display-properties utility
[18:14] <sfalangaf> thiebaude: it's not fully released yet, right?  I can download
[18:14] <Manny2218> Well, if i choose "use largest continuous free space" for the installation, will it auto detect the largest amount of unallocated space between 2 hard drives?
[18:14] <maged> .
[18:14] <chian_xi_seo> in 9.04 all my problem in dual screen mode are fixed
[18:14] <thiebaude> sfalangaf: i dont know if x is going to lock up on you
[18:14] <Padhu1> How can i remove packes inside wine
[18:15] <aar> Padhu, in the wine folder from the start menu there should be an 'uninstall applications' option
[18:15] <Varath> WebcamWonder, I did that and what now?
[18:15] <WebcamWonder> Varath: Compiz should be enabled
[18:16] <Varath> But how can I get a 3D cube?
[18:16] <Manny2218> i asked twice already, can some one please help me?
[18:16] <WebcamWonder> Varath: You need the ccsm to configure compiz for fancy effects
[18:16] <WebcamWonder> !info simple-ccsm
[18:16] <Padhu1> arr: I only want to uninstall the dos program inside wine
[18:17] <WebcamWonder> Varath: Open up a terminal, type in: sudo aptitude install simple-ccsm, after that is done, you should get a "custom" under your visual effects, where you can configure it
[18:17] <Padhu1> aar: not wine
[18:17] <aar> Padhu, yes, the 'uninstall wine software' option from the wine folder in the start menu should let you do that
[18:17] <WebcamWonder> Varath: If you want advanced control over Compiz, you need the compiz-config-settings-manager (iirc)
[18:17] <magikid> Everytime I start, I get "HAL failed to start".  If I jump to a command prompt and restart HAL, then restart X, it fixes everthing.  Any suggestions?
[18:17] <J-_> simple-ccsm's the interfaces to install now?
[18:17] <WebcamWonder> !find compiz
[18:18] <J-_> compizconfig-settings-manager,
[18:18] <WebcamWonder> Varath: What J-_ said ^^
[18:18] <DieseL`> lo
[18:18] <Padhu> I don't want to uninstall wine. I installed one game inside wine. I want to remove that
[18:18] <J-_> Rather, compizconfig-settings-manager is the ccsm I've always used.
[18:18] <WebcamWonder> Padhu: Applications -> Wine -> Uninstall
[18:18] <DieseL`> i'm mounting windows shares with fstab, but they keep mouting with only read permissions
[18:18] <Varath> Ugh this is hard for a newb like me
[18:18] <WebcamWonder> J-_: I know, but simple-ccsm is easier for newcomers :)
[18:19] <J-_> WebcamWonder: Nice :)
[18:19] <DieseL`> i.e. the folder actually shows 555 :S
[18:19] <aar> Padhu, I understood that the first time. The option I am giving you will not uninstall wine, it will uninstall an application of your choice within wine
[18:19] <nillo> Does anyone know how to rename a workspace?  I used to be able to do it, but can't now.
[18:19] <Varath> I got simple ccsm installed and what now?
[18:19] <magikid> DieseL': Have you tried mounting with rw in fstab?
[18:19] <tatosgames> hello

[18:19] <WebcamWonder> Varath: System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Visual Effects -> Custom, then you can configure it, to turn on the fancy effects, as much as you like
[18:19] <aar> Padhu, the option i am giving you will direct you to windows'  equivalent of add-remove programs

[18:21] <vigo> nillo: Workspaces?
[18:21] <Padhu> I done it. But it is showing the files. restart is required?
[18:21] <WebcamWonder> nillo: Right click on a workspace in the bottom swithcer, and you can rename it there
[18:21] <vigo> nillo: Right click on the workspace, then preferences,
[18:21] <nillo> vigo: Desktop workspaces, virtual desktops, I would call them.

[18:22] <Varath> WebcamWonder, Ahhh! Got a new option:) but still looking how I can get that 3D cube i'm in the ccsm manager now
[18:22] <aar> Padhu, some files will probably require manual deletion (particularly links on the desktop and directory names)

[18:22] <Padhu> oh.
[18:23] <nillo> vigo: I only have rows and columns
[18:23] <vigo> nillo: Right click an empty workspace, a Preferences window should pop up

[18:24] <vigo> nillo: okee dokee
[18:24] <WebcamWonder> Varath: You have to look around in all the tabs, and turn on the Desktop Cube option somehwere. I don't really deal with that manager to remember the entire steps. However, to active the cube you need >=4 workspaces, and CTRL + ALT + RIGHT is one of the default shortcut
[18:24] <baijum> Hi, I just upgraded from Ubuntu 8.10 to 9.04 beta, now my X display is not coming.  But when I use live CD in the same machine, it is working, any pointer how I can make my system display works ?

[18:25] <gislan> vigo: yes
[18:25] <WebcamWonder> magikid: simple-ccsm also has it
[18:25] <vigo> gislan: Then did you exit terminal and restart terminal?
[18:26] <DieseL`> magikid yes the windows share is
[18:26] <nillo> vigo: didn't work.  I'm going to try deany's suggestion when I get a sec.
[18:26] <Varath> Ok thx all! ^^
[18:26] <bigo72> I can't find /etc/modprobe.d/aliases in Jaunty, how can I disable IPV6?

[18:26] <WebcamWonder> bigo72: Any specific reason you want to disable IPv^/
[18:26] <gislan> vigo: after what? I did it now, still nothing, it keeps looking for a file that doesn't exists
[18:27] <vigo> nillo: ok, maybe a setting that is taken over by another package, but that normally works on most.

[18:31] <baijum> aar: How to change driver ?
[18:32] <xcv> mgco: assuming it is a virus, and assuming it wasn't there when ubuntu was installed, and assuming the system was never booted into another OS (usb stick, floppy, dual boot, etc.), then the question, it seems to me, is how did it get there? no protections in the world are going to work when the user has root/admin rights and doesn't use common sense when downloading, installing, etc.
[18:32] <vigo> gislan: It is a dpkg thing. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1026618&highlight=unstable+pkg

[18:33] <baijum> Can I use this live CD xorg.conf file ?
[18:33] <aar> baijum, i would be tempted to copy the xorg.conf file from your life cd into your HD installation (but i've never tried this before, you might want to ask someone with more experience that me in the channel whether this is viable)
[18:33] <xlq> BartoN-: is this with Wine or Cedega or something
[18:33] <DieseL`> magikid idd

[18:34] <baijum> aar: ok
[18:34] <ghostlines> how can i turn my wireless nic into an access point?

[18:34] <BartoN-> how ?
[18:34] <baijum> vigo: What are the files I need to copy?

[18:35] <alexmhso> hi i have a quick problem. I can not find where ubuntu will automatically mount my ipod. If needed to know, I'm trying to install rockbox but it needs my mount point.
[18:35] <gislan> vigo: these are debian unstable repositories, right?
[18:36] <LjL> Briandb1222: .rpm files are packages for RedHat and derived distributions. you do *not* use them in Ubuntu
[18:36] <clearscreen> Briandb1222: I dont know for ubuntu, but In the old days when I was still running debian, I'd install 'alien' and convert it to a .deb file :P
[18:36] <vigo> gislan: Yes
[18:36] <alexmhso> Briandb1222: http://www.debianadmin.com/install-rpm-files-in-debian-and-ubuntu.html
[18:36] <Briandb1222> ah ok

[18:37] <ultraj6> can an ubuntu LDAP server be integrated into an existing windows domain and function as a backup domain controller?
[18:37] <aar> mgco, nobody seems to know what you've got, so it's hard to draw any conclusions. I would recommend you burn yourself a clamav livecd (https://launchpad.net/clamav-livecd), scan your system, and get back to us with the results for advice (i.e. give us the precise name of the infection and the location)
[18:37] <Rovanion>  Good day gents, how do I get my ethernet card working in ubuntu... The interesting thing is that it works on the live cd but not when the system is actually installed
[18:38] <vigo> gislan: Or use the alien package. I am not familiar with that package, so sounds like either alien ort unstable.
[18:38] <xcv> mgco: imho many of your posts suggest a desire to shift the responsibility from the computer operator(s) to the ubuntu community, which really isn't fair, no matter how emphatically you assert your position.
[18:38] <xlq> Rovanion: have you run sudo dhclient?

[18:39] <Rovanion> xlq: What does it do?
[18:39] <xlq> Rovanion: try it
[18:39] <xlq> Rovanion: it's a DHCP client - it will try to obtain an IP address.
[18:39] <DieseL`> magikid same problem
[18:39] <Rovanion> xlq: But I dont think it detect
[18:39] <Rovanion> s the networking card
[18:39] <aar> Rovanion, dhclient resquests an IP address from your server. You need an IP address to connect to any network.

[18:43] <willmore> Ahh, okay.
[18:43] <aar> Rovanion, that is the problem. Your card is not being detected. Are the livecd and the installation exactly the same version running on the same PC?
[18:43] <unop> ultraj6, depends on what your LDAP server is .. samba can integrate into AD and function as a BDC tho.

[18:49] <starcannon> I am looking for the lpia kernel package, does anyone know what repository to add to my sources list?
[18:49] <aar> todd__, probably because your network uses switches? switches prevent pepole from sniffing, which is essentially what lanmap does.
[18:50] <todd__> aar: OK how do I get past my switch???
[18:50] <aar> todd__, it's impossible i'm afraid. you can't sniff past a switch

[18:50] <eth01> it depends what kind of switch it is
[18:50] <xlq> !sudo | Briandb1222
[18:51] <ultraj6> you can sniff on a switch
[18:51] <xlq> Yay, I used ubottu correctly :D

[18:51] <eth01> sniffed, even
[18:52] <ultraj6> you modify their arp table
[18:52] <ultraj6> to redirect their traffic to your machine
[18:52] <starcannon> kantlivelong, "how it works" or an "easy way to achieve"?
[18:52] <ultraj6> where then you direct their traffic to the gateway
[18:52] <ultraj6> this is known as a man in the middle attack
[18:52] <staar2> vigo:  yes the gstream ugly set is installed
[18:52] <kantlivelong> starcannon: im doing LFS and just curious..
[18:52] <ultraj6> address resolution protocol
[18:52] <ultraj6> arp
[18:52] <ultraj6> it is a very common attack
[18:52] <afd3dea> Using an Eee PC and the "Resolution" tool in the System - PRef menu I managed to screw up... How would I go about resetting X to the default resolution on the laptop screen rather than having this screwed up VGA setting?

[18:53] <todd__> aar: OK... what should I have to allow this to work?
[18:53] <vigo> staar2: Ok, do you have the Adobe Flash also installed?
[18:53] <aar> ultraj6, OK, but that's not technically sniffing is it? more like packet injection?
[18:53] <ultraj6> because you now have the traffic passing through your machine
[18:53] <Dreamglider> how can i ssh to my pc when it's ip is 192.168.1.x and it's behind a router with another ip ?
[18:53] <ultraj6> you can now sniff at will
[18:53] <ultraj6> you can also modify file streams on the fly
[18:53] <eseven73> !away > Shirow

[18:53] <ultraj6> you have complete control over their communications at this point
[18:53] <gaintsura> is there a way to list all programs that I've installed via apt-get or synaptic in order of last used/how often its used?
[18:53] <xcv> mgco: just trying to confirm -- are you saying that your computer will not boot from cd/dvd (optical) drive? if so, just curious, how did you get ubuntu installed?
[18:54] <staar2> vigo: yeah like youtube shows the videos
[18:54] <starcannon> kantlivelong the command for compiz is i think is compiz --replace
[18:54] <aar> todd__, you can't use lanmap unmodified in a network with switches, you'd need to do what ultraj6 is describing (which is fairly complex).
[18:54] <mgco> aar: i'm at the website "No download files exist for this project." :'-(
[18:54] <starcannon> kantlivelong, not sure that I'm following you though sorry :(
[18:54] <ultraj6> probably the most widely used windows application for poisoning someone's arp table is "Cain and Able"
[18:54] <kantlivelong> starcannon: yes but metacity must load first.. i wanna skip it
[18:54] <Dreamglider> afd3dea, and when i need to ssh to multiple pc's behind the same router ?
[18:54] <ultraj6> on linux it would be ettercap
[18:54] <staar2> vigo: ok i got it work, installed gstream mpge2 lib also, ty
[18:54] <solaar> is there a graphical way to display system stats? i know about sudo lshw but i was wondering if ubuntu had anything remotely similar to MY COMPUTER in windows
[18:54] <ultraj6> ettercap is also available for windows
[18:54] <todd__> aar: OK, so what are my options outher then a switch?
[18:54] <vigo> starr2: Uhm, ok, neato!
[18:54] <ultraj6> a hub is like a switch
[18:55] <mgco> xcv: somebody else did on another external optical drive. i've raised this issue before in the chatroom: i have a lacie external dvd writer and no luck on getting to boot on it.
[18:55] <ultraj6> except all the packets going into the hub are sent out all the ports
[18:55] <afd3dea> Dreamglider, Ah... Well then if you want to ssh to your external IP forward different ports to different machines? So yourip:1234 is ssh to machine 1, yourip:1235 is ssh to machine 2?
[18:55] <kavity> Can anyone help me with problems with recording from a built-in laptop mic?
[18:55] <ultraj6> a hub is like a port replicator
[18:55] <todd__> aar: OK... what should I have other then a switch to allow this to work?
[18:55] <slinaber`> Hey. I have a wacom tablet that wacdump recognizes, but I don't seem to be able to get X to recognize it. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious...any ideas?
[18:55] <ultraj6> what was your goal i forgot?
[18:55] <AciD> I installed 8.04 on my sasung NC10 and had no major problem. for 3 weeks now (approximatively), I can't suspend anymore. I checked the dmesg logs and spotted a possible error message regarding the "eviocgbit problem". I tried with another kernel, same pb. I tried deinstalling synaptics, still. Anyone got a solutino for this suspend pb on 8.04 ?
[18:55] <LjL> info lshw-gtk | solaar
[18:55] <LjL> !info lshw-gtk | solaar
[18:55] <Dreamglider> afd3dea, alright thank you.
[18:55] <aar> todd__, a switch is a physical connection in a network, used to redirect traffic. it prevents users from sniffing past it (unless you do what ultraj6 has described, which is technically speaking not passive sniffing). i'd recommend you read more about sniffing and man in the middle attacks in wikipedia to learn about how the system works
[18:56] <starcannon> kanlivelong ah I see, hmm, never tried to change the order of things, is metacity not needed for the login manager?
[18:56] <troy__> troy_ sixkids
[18:56] <starcannon> I am looking for the lpia kernel package, does anyone know what repository to add to my sources list?
[18:56] <ultraj6> aar is correct, it is not passive sniffing, you have to exploit a protocol
[18:56] <mgco> aar: i'm really sleepy now, i'll take your advice and see if i can have that clamav livecd run. i just don't know how yet.
[18:56] <rayne_> I am using a Hp Dv5 laptop and the built in Mic is not working, can someone help? I did not find solution on forums that works
[18:56] <mgco> thanks for the help aar xcv vigo bye for now
[18:57] <Dreamglider> can i start a gnome session via ssh ? (like VNC)
[18:57] <aar> mgco, good luck
[18:57] <RickZilla> So theoretically, if I back up the entire file system, I can restore everything after re-installing ubuntu? Including software packages, etc...
[18:57] <mgco> oh and jrib too. thanks all
[18:57] <xcv> mgco: yw, sorry couldn't help more
[18:57] <xlq> Dreamglider: I'm not sure exactly what you mean.
[18:57] <ultraj6> if you back something up you can certainly restore it, unless you damage the backup
[18:58] <usser> Dreamglider, yea sure, just connect with -X switch, ie ssh -X -C servername
[18:58] <todd__> aar: OK so this thing just dosent work, is there another tool I can use to get a network diagram of my network that does??? Or do I have to use windows for this?
[18:58] <xlq> Dreamglider: if you want to run graphical apps remotely, you can use X11 forwarding (if your local machine is Linux or a BSD).
[18:58] <rayne_> The built in microphone on my laptop is not working, any help?
[18:58] <usser> Dreamglider, once logged in, run gnome-session
[18:58] <aar> RickZilla, correct, as long as you're restoring to the same partition
[18:58] <arnducky> Hey folks, is there a way to force the gui (kde) Grub conf tool to scan for existing installs of Ubuntu (exact same kernel) on partitions other than where it is hosted and properly add them to the menu.1st list?
[18:59] <xlq> Dreamglider: if your local machine is a Windows machine, you can use VNC, although it's not very fast over the Internet.
[18:59] <aar> todd__, as ultraj6 has described, you need to do a man in the middle attack for what you want (be it in linux or in windows). sniffing will not work in your case, because it will only take you to the nearest switch.
[18:59] <W8TAH> how realistic is it to replace a windows 2003 domain (with authentication etc) and windows XP workstations with linux across the board?
[18:59] <xlq> Dreamglider: Either way (ssh -X or VNC) you can run Gnome apps, including the Gnome panel, but you can't run a window manager remotely using ssh -X
[19:00] <xlq> Dreamglider: sorry, I'm going on a bit
[19:00] <arnducky> ....Or any other "safe"script to manage grub would be nice. It's in my MBR and I don't want to mess up the entries already pointing to other OSes
[19:00] <usser> W8TAH, depends on what you do with the domain, people have done that, there are solutions for centralized username database, logons etc, group policies are still lacking though
[19:00] <vigo> W8TAH: That is kinda off-topic, takes an opinion to answer that.
[19:00] <starcannon> rayne_ : System>Preferences>Sound set capture to ALSA, and set the Defalut Mixer to the correct device; restart the program you want to use, mess with switches in the Volume Applet (upper right corner) until you get the right combination (at least this is how I deal with Laptop Microphones)
[19:00] <todd__> aar: NOT TRUE... I have been dong network diagrams on windows for a while now, and thoes tools work out of the box... is there something in linux that will work out of the box as well???
[19:00] <W8TAH> usser thanks
[19:00] <W8TAH> vigo sorry -- where would be appropriate to ask that?
[19:01] <vigo> W8TAH: /ubuntu-offtopic
[19:01] <magikid> Is there a character map installed by default?  If not, anyone know the package?
[19:01] <stuntedturtle> Q: My audio had a hiccup and now it's repeating a small chunk of audio over and over. Is there a way to reset the drivers or find out what's putting this junk into the audio buffer?
[19:01] <W8TAH> vigo thank you
[19:01] <vigo> W8TAH wit the # doohicky
[19:01] <aar> todd__, i've tried to describe why it's not working. i can assure you it won't work in linux, windows or a mac. if you're comfortable with out-of -the-box products you might be better of using windows
[19:02] <magikid> nvm
[19:02] <todd__> aar: lol... no wonder everyone is using windows, I am really getting tired of having to fight to get things done :-(
[19:03] <eseven73> stuntedturtle, maybe sudo alsa force-reload
[19:03] <rayne_> starcannon, Sound capture is set to ALSA- Advanced Linux Sound Artchitecture, now I just change Default Mixer Tracks until it works?
[19:03] <stevr1it> qualcuno di voi ha esperienza con thunderbird e lithening calendar?
[19:03] <todd__> aar: is it BSOD or kill yourself to lift a finger? isnt there something better at this point??? really???
[19:04] <starcannon> rayne change it to the sound card/chipset that is in your machine, [code]sudo lshw[/code] in a terminal should tell you what you need to know for that bit
[19:04] <stuntedturtle> eseven73: that seems to have stopped the noise. thanks.

[19:05] <[MindVirus]> I have Ubuntu and Windows installed on a computer. Windows is malfunctioning so I am reinstalling it. I know it will override the MBR. What do I do?

[19:05] <aar> todd__, have u understood the conversation between ultraj6 and me? we have made it very clear why you can't currently map your network (rgardless of the OS you use). we have also suggested a possible alternative (albeit a rather complex one). what hae you not understood?
[19:05] <stuntedturtle> what's the name of the Volume Control in the upper panel? that seems to have disappeared and needs a reset as well.

[19:08] <todd__> ultraj6: ok how?
[19:09] <eseven73> stuntedturtle, np :D
[19:09] <aar> lorenzosu, that should also work
[19:09] <xcv> MindVirus: i've done that before, pretty sure i found the procedure by googling "ubuntu how to fix grub after reinstalling windows"
[19:09] <vigo> {MindVirus} Oh ok, Just install the windows, then update the grub. works on paper, but let me check the boards on that. I still think a good backup is all that is needed.
[19:09] <aar> lorenzosu, (although i can't quite understand why you'd want to import the torrent of a file that's already completely downloaded)
[19:09] <casinaroyale> has anyone used glut or glui here?

[19:15] <ultraj6> im use windows mainly
[19:16] <pHreaksYcle1> Manny2218: when you are looking at the installer window, check how much harddrive space it says its going to use
[19:16] <ultraj6> *i
[19:16] <Manny2218> well i have 40gb of unallocated space on one of my hard drives
[19:16] <ultraj6> why do you need a network diagram?
[19:16] <Manny2218> and i want it to install directly into there
[19:16] <todd__> ultraj6: Looked at the nmap pages you sent... maybe I am stupid, that does not look like a mapping tool
[19:16] <xsg> Hey guys what are some good fps shooter games i would like some ww2 or war based for linux ????

[19:16] <ultraj6> it has a topology mapper in the front end
[19:16] <ultraj6> it is a port scanner
[19:17] <pHreaksYcle1> Manny2218: ubuntu is about messing junk up and starting over, backup your files and try something man

[19:19] <pHreaksYcle1> manny, here's a quote from you. . .
[19:20] <pHreaksYcle1> it can install into unallocated space right? If so, is it able to auto detect the largest amount of unallocated space between 2 hard drives?
[19:20] <xlq> dennda: as far as I know, it's perfectly safe
[19:20] <pHreaksYcle1> between 2 hard drives. . . ?
[19:20] <Manny2218> well what i mean is
[19:20] <J-_> todd__: Also check out: http://linux-ip.net/html/
[19:20] <aar> dennda, any operation with partitions is risky. it is always advisable to backup
[19:20] <xlq> Manny2218: if you're installing it on an external drive, it's probably best to partition manually.
[19:20] <Manny2218> i ahve 2 hard drives, i want to know if it will install into the bigger free pace out of those 2 hard drives
[19:20] <rayne_> vigo, you mean installing pulseaudio?
[19:21] <xlq> Manny2218: once you've set up the partitions on the external drive, you can run the installer and tell it to install on it.
[19:21] <pHreaksYcle1> xlq: do you know where to submit a bug for printing in Ubuntu??
[19:21] <Manny2218> well, i'll try to manually partition again and tell you what happens
[19:21] <vigo> rayne_: Not really, but if that is the fix, then yes, I glanced over all the posts, looks like there area few options.
[19:21] <todd__> this sucks... can someone give me a good reason not to just say fuck it, I'll just reboot my machine every 3 minutes, and go back to windows???
[19:21] <Manny2218> what format should i make the partition?
[19:21] <todd__> pardon my french
[19:21] <xlq> pHreaksYcle1: same place as all other Ubuntu bugs?
[19:22] <xlq> todd__: you could run it in VirtualBox
[19:22] <todd__> xlq: that is worse
[19:22] <Manny2218> xlq - what format do you suggest making the partition?
[19:22] <xlq> Manny2218: The root partition should be 0x83 (Linux)
[19:22] <dinoman> I just installed ubuntu 8.10 on my pc, and I have 3 internal hard drives. 1 is running ubuntu as the only OS, the other two are NTFS storage drives, I am having problems mounting them however. When i mount it says "Unable to mount location" "Internal error: No mount object for mounted volume"
[19:22] <Manny2218> okay
[19:22] <J-_> todd__: You could stop swearing and go by the code of conduct here.
[19:22] <xlq> Manny2218: I think the installer will run mkfs, but fyi the root fs is usually ext3
[19:22] <susbwoy> todd__:  save money on power bill, with the economy these days linux helps
[19:22] <rayne_> vigo, I noticed the same thing. Seems kinda odd considering that is a big problem on a major laptop... I've tried most those guides and nothing has worked for me so far.

Anyone got a solutino for this suspend pb on 8.04 ?
[19:23] <H_M-Ubuntu> I'm setting up my /etc/fstab configuration to allow my drives to mount automatically on boot, I need to know what filesystem I should supply for my NTFS partitions. The partitions show up as "fuseblk" in system monitor, but i'm not sure if that is what I should say.
[19:23] <xlq> g2g now
[19:23] <Brucevdk> Hi, I'm using an application that uses libunique to only start up one instance. When the second instance is started the window for the current instance gets the URGENT window manager hint set, however, it won't get focused (in the window list it'll just colorize). I'm using Metacity. Anybody know why?
[19:23] <H_M-Ubuntu> Can anyone tell me what I should say for it?
[19:23] <todd__> J-_: sorry about that... it slipped out will not happen again
[19:23] <Manny2218> hmm so what one should i format it as?
[19:23] <xlq> H_M-Ubuntu: you could either use 'auto' (automatically detect), or iirc it's ntfs-3g
[19:23] <Zopiac> running 2 monitors on a GeForce video card, and the monitor positions are set up correctly in the Nvidia Settings window, but I can't move my mouse from my left to my right monitor, only off the far side of the left to get to the far side of the right. anyone have a solution (if you can follow this) ?
[19:23] <todd__> but really this sucks... can someone give me a good reason not to just say screw it, I'll just reboot my machine every 3 minutes, and go back to windows???
[19:24] <xlq> H_M-Ubuntu: I use ntfs-3g as the type, in my fstab, and it shows up as 'fuseblk'
[19:24] <H_M-Ubuntu> Yeah i'm using auto for my flash drives... I figure auto will work anyway. Is there any down side to using auto?
[19:24] <tsopp_> todd__, whats the problem?
[19:24] <ktebit> would you choose Ubuntu server as a server os ?
[19:24] <jrib> tsopp_: what is your actual question?
[19:24] <xlq> H_M-Ubuntu: it's probably slightly slower.
[19:24] <vigo> rayne_: In this one is solved: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=843012&highlight=microphone+error
[19:24] <tsopp_> jrib, ?
[19:24] <Krine11> hi
[19:24] <xlq> bye
[19:24] <H_M-Ubuntu> xlq: Don't worry about that, I have raptor drives.
[19:24] <tsopp_> Tab-complete gotcha?

[19:24] <H_M-Ubuntu> Heh..
[19:24] <Krine11> but i dont know how to isntall it
[19:25] <aar> todd__, why don't you?
[19:25] <ktebit> would you choose Ubuntu server as a server os ?
[19:25] <todd__> tsopp: Sorry everyone keeps sending me on wild goos chases, and its such a simple thing in windows, but like 80 steps here... a network map is all I want
[19:25] <J-_> todd__: Did you see my reponse about Nomad?
[19:25] <vigo> !java
[19:25] <dennda> Is there anything like a BNC (bouncer) for XMPP (Jabber)?
[19:25] <todd__> J-_: yep, dont have that much money
[19:25] <vigo> Krinell: Did you see that?
[19:26] <ktebit> would you choose Ubuntu server as a server os ?
[19:26] <Krine11> yes
[19:26] <Krine11> ok i will check it
[19:26] <vigo> okee dokee

[19:27] <hkais> hlelo
[19:27] <hkais> i have big problems with my ubuntu 8.10 x64
[19:28] <hkais> it reports under java, that i have to many files open
[19:28] <okey666> hkais: when exactly does this happen
[19:28] <vigo> ubuntu_is_dabest: that is a configure thing, I use Freshclam and that nice GUI thing whith it.
[19:28] <Krine11> Hi i downloaded java
[19:28] <Krine11> but i do not know how to install it
[19:28] <hkais> during working with e.g. eclipse
[19:28] <Krine11> can you help me
[19:28] <Krine11> i looked at a article
[19:29] <Krine11> nothing worked
[19:29] <FloodBot3> Krine11: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:29] <okey666> Krine11: yes
[19:29] <rayne_> vigo, good walkthrough.... but the problem isnt the drivers it seems, but rather that it is the built in microphone
[19:29] <okey666> Kirne: did you download it from the java website
[19:29] <Krine11> yes
[19:29] <Krine11> i downloaded the self extracting file
[19:29] <ubuntu_is_dabest> whick gui?
[19:29] <Manny2218> For the partition, which format should i make it?
[19:29] <todd__> OK, no response... I am guessing "advanced" stuff like creating a diagram of your network, is just too much for ubuntu, unless someone has any other suggestions????
[19:29] <okey666> Krine: ok, can you open a terminal for me pls?
[19:29] <hkais> Krine11: use synaptic to install it
[19:29] <okey666> hkais: hes gone
[19:30] <SliderMan> any light music players out there??
[19:30] <nikitis> how much disk space does jaunty take up in root on a fresh default install?
[19:30] <Dreamglider> SliderMan, audacious
[19:30] <hkais> okey666: how many open files do you have currently? (lsof |wc -l)
[19:30] <SliderMan> thanks :P
[19:30] <okey666> hkais: just looking
[19:30] <okey666> hkais: why?
[19:31] <unop> todd__, you want something to draw a network diagram with?
[19:31] <okey666> hkais: it gives 6552
[19:31] <Manny2218> i made the format ext3 and made a linux swap partition, wil lthat work?
[19:31] <hkais> I want to know if I use to many files. The reason will be anaylsed later
[19:31] <tsopp_> Manny2218, yes.
[19:32] <Manny2218> okay
[19:32] <hkais> okey666: okay I have currently ~10000
[19:32] <tsopp_> I presume this is an install?
[19:32] <rayne_> how do I restart pulseaudio?
[19:32] <okey666> hkais: and eclipse can't cope with this?
[19:32] <J-_> todd__: What about nmap?
[19:32] <okey666> hkais: sorry, I can't help with that
[19:32] <hkais> no eclipse can cope with it, but here is an problem which I haven't before ubuntu 8.10
[19:33] <hkais> any one else who knows how to figure out whats wrong with my config (too many open files)
[19:33] <mal|lappy> I'm trying to access my ubuntu box via vnc (from windows), what server is the best? I've tried tightvncserver and vnc4server, I can't connect to either after starting them from windows.
[19:33] <gingerb> Hey all... a lot of my memory is used as cache. I've never had this issue with Ubuntu before. How can I check which processes are holeing up all of this memory?
[19:34] <ktebit> I'm using dd_rhelp to clone a 500gb drive but it's been going for two days straight, and it seems to be going over the same sections multiple times (the ipos and opos). should it be doing that?
[19:34] <ktebit> it's a raid 5 volume, but none of the other volumes are even hooked up right now
[19:34] <ktebit> doing a recovery with mdadm keeps failing (because 3 of the drives are on the verge of failure) so i'm trying to clone the bad ones one at a time
[19:34] <bthomson> what does it mean: This kernel requires the folloing features not present on the CPU: 0:6
[19:35] <petskull> can I install ubuntu from a partition?
[19:35] <gingerb> Hey all... a lot of my memory is used as cache. I've never had this issue with Ubuntu before. How can I check which processes are holeing up all of this memory?
[19:35] <bthomson> gingerb: it's supposed to be that way, not a problem
[19:35] <basement> Question (Newb):  I have installed Ubuntu 8.10, setup user ect.. when I try to copy a file to /usr or /ect the permissions are set to only allow root.  I know I can go to terminal and do sudo su (but i'm not so good with CLI), but other than log-off log-on as Root, is there a way in Ubuntu Gnome GUI to give a user temp root privilages so I can copy my files?.
[19:35] <petskull> like- copy the liveCD files to a partition and boot from it?
[19:36] <ktebit> Anyone?
[19:36] <gingerb> bthomson: OK, thanks
[19:36] <okey666> ktebit: run sudo nautilus

[19:36] <ArGGu^^> hello
[19:36] <petskull> ktebit: what was your q?
[19:36] <aar> basement, for the record, sudo su is not recommended. it's better to duso sudo -i
[19:37] <aar> basement, sorry: sudo -i
[19:37] <Dreamglider> basement, be careful tho. do what you have to do and close the window when done.
[19:38] <ArGGu^^> Is there released jaunty-lpia.iso base install. So it does not install DE only the base install?
[19:38] <basement> aar Thank you as well, will remember, no sudo su

[19:41] <kravlin> hey, anyone know anything about emerald? i'm trying to get it to alter the inside of the theme, (it alters the boarder but nothing else.
[19:41] <meoblast001> why is firefox starting in psuedo fullscreen mode? it's not fullscreen mode but it covers the whole screen
[19:42] <aar> bonez46, is the info you're looking for not given by the command lspci ?
[19:43] <Brucevdk> bonez46: would the command `dmidecode --type baseboard` help you instead of an applet?

[19:46] <nillo> Okay, asking again: Does anyone know how to rename a workspace?  I used to be able to do it, but can't now.
[19:47] <acr0nym> there's nothing physically wrong with it as it seems to work in windows... so how do I get to make my mouse work/behave normally
[19:47] <shubbar> When I go to Administration > Services then Unlock; how do i add a service?
[19:47] <jeeaar> hello, i just installed ubuntu and it is having problems recognizing my optical drive. Not even the bios sees it, any ideas?
[19:47] <Dreamglider> nillo, right klick on workspaces > pref's then 2x klick on the workspace names
[19:47] <jimmy5410> Does anybody know how to save your settings in Ubuntu if you are booting from a flash drive?
[19:48] <poppler> jeeaar: well it might be a hardware problem?
[19:48] <acr0nym> try getting it work in the bios first, probably, I think, some connector is loose/not right
[19:48] <jeeaar> i dont think so, it was working fine before i installed ubuntu
[19:48] <aar> acr0nym, is the mouse plugged in before you boot, or do you plug it in once the system has booted?
[19:48] <nillo> Dreamglider: No UI for "workspace names"
[19:48] <shubbar> jeeaar, are you sure its connected?
[19:48] <acr0nym> aar ah plugged it in once the system was booted
[19:48] <jeeaar> laptop.
[19:48] <Dreamglider> nillo, u mena gui ?
[19:48] <sheepo39> I just recently Dled Ubuntu 9.04 and I wanna install without installing it over anything
[19:48] <acr0nym> so perhaps a reboot is needed? :)
[19:48] <Dreamglider> mean
[19:48] <aar> jimmy51_home, you can't save the settings unless you have read-write capabilities on the drive
[19:48] <poppler> jeeaar: if the bios doesn't see it that is. check that it's well power from the MB is well plugged in the optical drive
[19:49] <poppler> *powered
[19:49] <sheepo39> hmmmm
[19:49] <aar> acr0nym, try having it plugged in before booting, so the device gets properly detected
[19:49] <Brucevdk> nillo: double click the select field with Desk 1, Desk 2, Desk 3 and it switches to an editable version
[19:49] <acr0nym> thanks! I'll try it now :)
[19:49] <jeeaar> it's a laptop, and i can hear the drive getting power - it just isnt recognized
[19:49] <jimmy5410> How do I get read-write capabilities to the drive?
[19:49] <sheepo39> brb
[19:49] <Ginger> Hey all. I was wondering if I should go with Ubuntu 9.04 or 8.10 for general use. I mean, I can live with it being fairly unstable for the time-being, but I am fairly unfamiliar with Linux. Regardless, I would upgrade to 9.04 as soon as it came out anyway. Is 18 days left of Beta really anything that significant? Whats your guys's thoughts?
[19:50] <sheepo39> :)
[19:50] <SliderMan> !grub
[19:50] <shubbar> jeeaar, may be not connected well. pull it out and return it
[19:50] <nillo> Dreamglider: I mean it only shows textboxes for number or rows and columns.
[19:50] <jeeaar> ok, ill try it.
[19:50] <SliderMan> !c++
[19:50] <SliderMan> =\
[19:50] <poppler> jeeaar: and how do you suggest ubuntu installation tampered with the bios?
[19:50] <shubbar> Ginger, i m still on 8.04
[19:50] <nillo> Brucevdk: That didn't work, or I'm doing it wrong.
[19:50] <poppler> I don't see that possible
[19:50] <jeeaar> good question :S
[19:51] <Ozwaldca> Morning folks
[19:51] <poppler> weird indeed
[19:51] <jeeaar> be back, gotta power down.
[19:51] <jimmy5410> ?
[19:51] <kravlin> hey, anyone know anything about emerald? i'm trying to get it to alter the inside of the theme, (it alters the boarder but nothing else.
[19:51] <bonez46> Brucevdk: that helped,, but how about the socket info.. anything that will tell that?
[19:51] <Brucevdk> nillo: are you running Compiz or Metacity?
[19:51] <Brucevdk> bonez46: like the CPU socket?
[19:51] <Ginger> shubbar, alright. It seems fairly easy to upgrade from 8.04 to 9.10 anyway when April 25th finally hits.
[19:51] <Ozwaldca> can some give me hand to restore my sound?  i tried doing an upgrade to the latest alsa drivers
[19:51] <poppler> jeeaar: you said it can't be a hardware problem because it was working fine before. now remember that everything which gets broken must broke at some point in time.
[19:51] <Dreamglider> nillo,  sry cant help you then :/
[19:51] <apoth3osis> anyone know how to change categories in #ubuntu-trivia? is there a category for just ubuntu?
[19:52] <nillo> Brucevdk: I'm running whatever the default is for 8.10
[19:52] <aar> jimmy5410, have a look at this URL: http://www.linux-live.org/?howtos (persistent changes section)
[19:52] <bonez46> Brucevdk: yes.. the CPU socket.
[19:52] <Brucevdk> nillo: might have to do with that then (Compiz is default), for metacity you can even do it through gconf-editor (the names are located at /apps/metacity/workspace_names
[19:52] <shubbar> Ginger, when i upgraded to 8.10 i faced trouble with the video card ... so i did a fresh install to 8.04, after alot of thinking
[19:53] <Ginger> ok
[19:53] <nikitis> anyone know how to get street maps for RoadNav?
[19:53] <acr0nym> hmmz just rebooted, at first the mouse worked perfect...but now it's strange again
[19:53] <Brucevdk> bonez46: well, there is `cat /proc/cpuinfo` but you might just have to look it up by name
[19:53] <acr0nym> seems like something is interfering with it, maybe my network or some program that started
[19:53] <Ozwaldca> does anyone know how to restore the ALSA sound to work after an upgrade?
[19:53] <nillo> Brucevdk: Let me make sure I have this straight.  Compiz is the default WM for Ubuntu 8.10, so I should do what?
[19:54] <shubbar> Ginger, even when 9.04 is out, if you're not ready to try some bugs, wait a few months
[19:54] <nikitis> Ozwaldca, hda intel?
[19:54] <Ozwaldca> yes
