[19:23] <ryoo> !list
[19:24] <AvonGenesis> How do I know if I am using the "Gnome Display Manager"?
[19:24] <Anarhist> Agony_, i'm leaving, hopefully this will help
[19:24] <DigitalKiwi> odahilys: just build one, for half the money you get the same computer, or the same money you get one and a half to two times the computer
[19:25] <ceil420> AvonGenesis, are you using GNOME? And have you installed any other Display Managers?
[19:25] <bhaskar> Berzerker: why u ar putting burden on odahilys well u hve helped me installing one theme that too much for me
[19:25] <AvonGenesis> ceil420, I am using gnome, although I am not sure if I have any other display managers since this distro i downloaded had a bunch of programs on it.
[19:25] <stdDoubt> in latex how to write the math symbol for real numbers?
[19:26] <ceil420> AvonGenesis, ..is this distro ubuntu?
[19:26] <bhaskar> bye everybody for a moment while i try some more
[19:26] <Berzerker> bhaskar: because you can't understand simple explanations.
[19:26] <AvonGenesis> Ceil420, Yes it is.
[19:26] <WebcamWonder> stdDoubt: \mathbb{R}
[19:26] <stdDoubt> thanks
[19:26] <AvonGenesis> Ceil420, Well, it was made from the ubuntu source.
[19:26] <bhaskar> Berzerker: i am too new i started using ubuntu jst two days ago
[19:26] <DigitalKiwi> AvonGenesis: when you login it should have a foot if it is gnome
[19:26] <ceil420> AvonGenesis, then you're probably using gdm. ps aux | grep gdm to check
[19:27] <odahilys> bhaskar: if i can figure it out by looking in docs why cant you looking in the OS?
[19:27] <merlin2049er> hey how do i copy some files over to a root owned folder?
[19:27] <ceil420> merlin2049er, sudo
[19:27] <AvonGenesis> Ceil420, Alright thanks a lot :)
[19:27] <odahilys> !agree | ceil420
[19:28] <merlin2049er> i don't know the sudo password?
[19:28] <odahilys> fail
[19:28] <odahilys> merlin, just type sudo... there shouldnt be a password
[19:28] <guntbert> !sudo | merlin2049er
[19:28] <Ben64> merlin2049er: it's your password
[19:28] <mbeierl> anyone know how to get around this bug? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ia32-libs/+bug/369498
[19:28] <merlin2049er> su is not the same as sudo then?
[19:28] <Ben64> merlin2049er: correct
[19:28] <odahilys> no
[19:28] <merlin2049er> ok, is there a graphical way to do this
[19:28] <azlon> how can i check the status of a program? like to see if it is responding
[19:29] <merlin2049er> i hate using the command line
[19:29] <guntbert> merlin2049er: no, in ubuntu you use sudo and provide your own password
[19:29] <bhaskar> odahilys: because i think i need to spend some more time with computer i am jst beginner with internet, system etc whn time will come may be i also could devlop everything that i wanted
[19:29] <ceil420> odahilys/merlin2049er, sudo uses the user password, not root's
[19:29] <odahilys> mbeirel: nope, unless you go in and look around the source code
[19:29] <coz_> azlon,  start it from terminal
[19:29] <Berzerker> merlin2049er: you hate using the command line? lol
[19:29] <ceil420> you still need a password
[19:29] <Berzerker> merlin2049er: why are you using linux
[19:29] <azlon> coz_, i started it, but now i want to check on it
[19:29] <merlin2049er> well because it's better than vista
[19:29] <ceil420> merlin2049er, you'll grow to like it. it's far more efficient than GUI for some things :)
[19:29] <odahilys> ceil420: i am aware, but who uses passwords these days?
[19:29] <coz_> azlon,  check on it?  in what way?  the terminal output should give some indication if it is working
[19:30] <ceil420> i use cli for just about everything but web browsing and IRC (and even in the latter case, i am comfortable with irssi)
[19:30] <Ben64> command line in linux is like, infinitely better than on windows
[19:30] <ceil420> odahilys, people with more than two braincells to rub together
[19:30] <odahilys> ceil420 , ouch.
[19:30] <merlin2049er> ok if i run sudo vuze
[19:30] <merlin2049er> that update should work then?
[19:30] <azlon> coz_, i started proftpd from the cli but it doesnt have an interface. i was transferring some files form my windows machine in the living room and they stopped for some reason...
[19:30] <Thingymebob> merlin2049er: You'll get there, no one was born knowing the command line, but you grow to love its power
[19:30] <ceil420> odahilys, i have no idea why i said something *that* mean :x i'm not even in a bad mood :x
[19:30] <Paddy_NI> ceil420, because its true
[19:30] <ceil420> odahilys, (srsly tho, passwords are a good idea, no matter how smart you think you are)
[19:31] <guntbert> merlin2049er: you *can* do it with nautilus too, but it is not recommended (dangerous!), so learn using the command line
[19:31] <odahilys> ceil420,i couldnt care less
[19:31] <bastidrazor> merlin2049er, for graphical applications use gksudo ..if you're using gnome
[19:31] <ceil420> odahilys, still, i'm usually all hippyish :x
[19:31] <LogicalDash> Lately my Xorg process has been spending an inordinate amount of time using more than 50% CPU. What might cause this?
[19:31] <merlin2049er> it did work, i finally got the plugin installed
[19:31] <odahilys> ceil420, i meant couldnt care about the language.
[19:31] <bhaskar> well i understood that error msg
[19:31] <coz_> azlon,  oh ok...then I am the wrong person to talk with   ... I am an idiot when it come to any form of networking
[19:31] <odahilys> Wow look someone named b0xxy
[19:31] <azlon> hrmm
[19:31] <odahilys> fail
[19:31] <azlon> i guess i will just restart
[19:31] <dfdd> fdr
[19:32] <odahilys> ceil420, are you aware that a password really does nothing for hackers ; it is so bypassable...
[19:33] <odahilys> espically if you use vista.
[19:33] <merlin2049er> ya vista blows
[19:33] <ceil420> odahilys, that's like saying SWAT shouldn't wear body armour, since people can get armour-piercing rounds
[19:33] <odahilys> ceil420,exactly
[19:33] <Berzerker> Windows 7 is good.
[19:33] <ceil420> ...
[19:33] <Berzerker> :P
[19:33] <odahilys> :3
[19:33]  * Berzerker hides
[19:34] <merlin2049er> whats new with ubuntu
[19:34] <coz_> Berzerker,  there is nothing wrong with using any OS as long as it fits your needs
[19:34] <odahilys> ceil420, unless you hack your own password you will never be protected by it
[19:34] <merlin2049er> i'm still running 9.04
[19:34] <merlin2049er> anything newer?
[19:34] <Cpudan80> no
[19:34] <Berzerker> coz_: lol I know.
[19:34] <David-T> passwords are utterly useless against a determined attacker with physical access to your machine, they're a very useful obstacle for most other categories of attack.
[19:34] <ceil420> i've got a good drumkit (hydrogen), but what program can i use for other instruments? a nice keyboard emulator (i mean the instrument, not vkeyb) would be nice
[19:34] <Berzerker> I still use UNR on my HP Mini though
[19:34] <Cpudan80> the format is [year].[month]
[19:34] <Berzerker> Windows is just way to slow for it.

[19:37] <sim_> yes
[19:37] <CaptainCrook> ceil420,  do you have a cli command for that?
[19:37] <odahilys> <3
[19:37] <Ben64> sim_: then try pan :3

[19:37] <ceil420> CaptainCrook, alsamixer if you're using alsa
[19:37] <sim_> it didnt give the option
[19:37] <odahilys> this channel has been raided by #ubuntu-offtopic. you are all now due to offtopicness!!

[19:38] <odahilys> guntbert: topic of offtopic? k
[19:38] <sim_> yeh it streams NZBs in windows
[19:38] <sim_> i use it all the time
[19:38] <DigitalKiwi> wth is an nzb?
[19:38] <ceil420> no idea what you mean
[19:38] <CaptainCrook> ceil420,  running pulseaudio ...
[19:38] <Ben64> sim_: what do you mean streams nzbs?
[19:38] <ceil420> i use binsearch.info to make/download nzb files, then import them to pan
[19:38] <ceil420> CaptainCrook, my condolences
[19:39] <Ben64> ceil420: i do that too ^^
[19:39] <sim_> nzb files may contain movies
[19:39] <sim_> it will stream them
[19:39] <ceil420> DigitalKiwi, tells your client what to download from usenet
[19:39] <sim_> so u dont have to wait
[19:39] <DigitalKiwi> oh
[19:39] <DigitalKiwi> cool i guess
[19:39] <ceil420> sim_, oh. i keep all my media anyway, so i dunno how to stream :p
[19:39] <odahilys> All: go back to using mac osx
[19:39] <Ben64> nzb files contain locations, nothing else
[19:39] <deany> ninan auto imports nzb, parchecks, gets pars if needed and unrars..
[19:39] <CaptainCrook> ceil420,  hehehe okay...
[19:39] <DigitalKiwi> can someone ban odahilys ? :/
[19:39] <sim_> ceil420: it downloads it....but you just watch it while it downloads

[19:41] <sim_> i want to allocate all those folders to a windows partitio n

[19:42] <sim_> this one then
[19:42] <deany> sim_,  its a LOT better than v1
[19:42] <sim_> deany why
[19:42] <deany> sim_, follow my guide.. simple
[19:42] <deany> sim_, its a whole rewrite.
[19:44] <detonation> Well, I had everything working right on my netbook. Now I'm having some acpi issues after updating (the last partial upgrade)
[19:44] <Biacz_> hey guys, i am running an ubuntu 9.04 system (gnome+compiz) in a virtualbox (windows xp sp3). when i try to make a screenshot/recordmydesktop movie it only shows the wallpaper and nothing else. any ideas?
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> Biacz_: try without compiz
[19:45] <b3rz3rk3r> Biacz_, id say the virtualboxs graphical emulation is causing you problems, kill compiz and try again
[19:45] <detonation> It seems that lspci doesn't even see the card, unless I reboot to windows (and the wireless card is off, and I turn it on in windows) then reboot to linux, it works until it suspends/sleeps. The only way to get it up again is reboot to windows, enable it again, then reboot to linux. I've updated eee-acpi-utilities and still have the problem
[19:46] <newproggie> hello
[19:46] <kangu> ! paste
[19:47] <sim_> deany - when i try to save the nohup desktop i get this --> Could not find the file /home/sim/ninan-2.0.0/Desktop/nohup.desktop.
[19:47] <Canaen> all I want is a gtk/compiz theme that looks like clearlooks (or something else normal), whose colors I can adjust, but allows for transparency! Is it really so much to ask?
[19:47] <edbian> detonation: I had a similar problem once.  Try this:  use the "modprobe -r <moduleName>" command to remove the module.  Then shut down and reboot linux (without going into windows).  Does the card show up correctly?  use "lspci -k" to learn the name of the driver.
[19:47] <kangu> hi last night i was having trouble with ndiswrapper just randomly keep discconnecting me.. and took me several restart to get it back online so someone told me to post this.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/260487/
[19:47] <deany> sim_, made it +x?
[19:48] <sim_> deany eh ?
[19:48] <sim_> i wrote this in terminal chmod +x ~/Desktop/nohup.desktop
[19:48] <detonation> edbian, it's ath9k. I've modprobe -r ath9k ; modprobe ath9k (under sudo) and it looks like it's going to come up but no wireless connection comes up from iwconfig
[19:48] <sim_> deany - sorry im at this stage = gedit Desktop/nohup.desktop
[19:48] <deany> sim_, and when you double click it?
[19:49] <anna123_> quit
[19:49] <deany> sim_, I think I might have missed out gedit ~/Desktop/nohup.desktop
[19:49] <edbian> detonation: My point is that linux is having trouble shutting down the device (which is why it disappears when you reboot).  I had the same problem with NIC and I solved it by first "modprobe -r <nicModule>" before I shut down or reboot.
[19:50] <deany> sim_, so it saves to your desktop in your home..  I think maybe you might be inside the ninan folder when doing that gedit stage.
[19:50] <edbian> detonation: I'm not trying to get your card back up and running.  I'm suggesting you run this command and see if the card is still missing after you reboot.

[20:03] <b3rz3rk3r> stoy, i use vlc everyday and havent noticed any significant change
[20:03] <guntbert> !msgthebot | SuBmUnDo
[20:04] <stoy> b3rz3rk3r: no atleast not between the 0.8.x and 0.9.x
[20:04] <stoy> tI also find the dvd playback somehow got broken in 0.9.x
[20:04] <b3rz3rk3r> stoy, im running the goldeneye RC right now, and its gr8.. plays everything
[20:06] <b3rz3rk3r> stoy, if u really want it though, have you tried their site? they must have archives of their releases surely?
[20:07] <t__Eest> someone here intalled the flashfxp version for linux ?
[20:08] <stoy> b3rz3rk3r: I have found the tar.gz and tried compiling it, but it did not work, so I am no looking for the precomplied deb instead.
[20:08] <DaZ> t__Eest: ftp client? :f
[20:08] <t__Eest> yep
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> t_eest: its an ftp client, linux has thousands available
[20:08] <boucarre> stoy :  why did it not work ?
[20:08] <b3rz3rk3r> stoy, why didnt it compile?
[20:09] <DaZ> t__Eest: i don't see any reason to use  crappy shareware <:
[20:09] <t__Eest> then say me another option daz
[20:09] <t__Eest> :)
[20:09] <erUSUL> t__Eest: filezilla
[20:09] <b3rz3rk3r> t__Eest, try gftp instead.. i prefer Filezilla personally as im used to it from windowz days
[20:09] <DaZ> t__Eest: kde has support in filemanagers
[20:09] <guntbert> !ftp | t__Eest
[20:09] <stoy> b3rz3rk3r: i did not have libmad (iirc) and did not have time to look for it when I tried
[20:09] <DaZ> nautilus has too iirc
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> e_eesy: looks like filezilla to me which is in repo, but there are other ftp clients
[20:10] <erUSUL> DaZ: indeed
[20:10] <DaZ> anyway, it's much better than standalone client :f
[20:10] <DaZ> imo
[20:10] <b3rz3rk3r> stoy, so just get it from synaptic then?
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> daz: the ftp rotocol is pretty limited, i dont see how you can get better with ftp
[20:11] <DaZ> ActionParsnip: using it with dolphin is just faster <:
[20:11] <stoy> b3rz3rk3r: I did try tro find it using apt-cache but no results
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> daz: it'll go as fast as the server can upload to you. ftp hasnt been revised much in years
[20:11] <DaZ> i'm not talking about 200% of internet fast
[20:12] <DaZ> using it is faster because i don't have to run another app
[20:12] <DaZ> just copypasting
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> daz: good call
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> daz: i use ftp at cli :)
[20:13] <t__Eest> so nobody hre with flashfxp version .deb ?
[20:15] <DaZ> t__Eest: it seems they don't like windows software  >:
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> t_eest: i dont think there is a deb. its a windows software
[20:15] <dg1> anyway to get my rear speakers to work in ubuntu
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> t_eest: it also doesnt run via wine: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=12017
[20:15] <DaZ> ActionParsnip: there is
[20:15] <dfdsfsdfsdf> damn it
[20:15] <DaZ> it's windows software in debfile \o/
[20:15] <Biacz_> ActionParsnip: one more short question. can i just kill compiz and restart it if needed without expecting any issues?
[20:16] <DaZ> Biacz_: yes :f
[20:16] <erUSUL> t__Eest: that software is no aviable in ubuntu. period
[20:16] <adasz> how can i record streams from the internetß
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> Biacz_: sure, just run: metacity --replcae  to switch to metacity, then compiz --replace when you want to switch back
[20:16] <tomek_> hello everyone
[20:16] <RMB> Does anyone know if Pidgin is working?
[20:17] <Biacz_> ActionParsnip: thanks
[20:17] <danbhfive> RMB: why wouldn't it work (Im using it)
[20:17] <Trijntje> RMB: it 'works' for me
[20:17] <Aijse> RMB, What do you mean specifically ... im running it now ... but for what distro?
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: http://www.mandrivalinux.eu/downloads.php?do=file&id=183&langid=1
[20:17] <RMB> Ubuntu 8.10
[20:17] <RMB> is pidgin working on ubuntu 8.10
[20:17] <Aijse> Sure it does
[20:18] <RMB> Hmm, well for some reason mine isn't because it just tries to connect
[20:18] <Guest44816> Hello! I've tried to make a Live-USB-Stick for Kubuntu 8.04. It boots but only a promt with "boot:" is displayed. How to get the menu back? (syslinux.cfg: http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/396161/)
[20:18] <RMB> it takes forever to connect
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> RMB: its worked for even before that and worked when it was called gaim too
[20:18] <RMB> I am just asking if its down or not
[20:18] <erUSUL> ActionParsnip: live and learn... somebody bundled wine + this damm thing ;P
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> RMB: pidgin is a client app so cant be down
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: true. cant see the point personally
[20:19] <Aijse> RMB, maybe your chat server is down? or wrong password or something
[20:19] <RMB> So then it must mean either MSN, ICQ or Gtalk is down
[20:19] <Guest44816> The howto for building a Live-USB-System: http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Live-USB (sorry, German).
[20:19] <tomek_> can anyone tell me please, how to establish which process is linked to which program (for instance if I have Totem running, and I wish to force close the application using "kill process")
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> tomek_: ps -ef | greptotem
[20:19] <RMB> Is anyone on MSN, ICQ or Google Talk?
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> ooop
[20:19] <Aijse> yes all
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> tomek_: grep totem   sorry
[20:19] <tomek_> thanks Action {arsnip
[20:19] <RMB> dammit
[20:20] <Trijntje> RMB: you have a problem with your setup, try starting pidgin from terminal to see any error messages
[20:20] <RMB> How do I do that Trinjntje
[20:20] <RMB> can you PM me
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> RMB: i'm on pidgin with msn, works fine
[20:21] <Trijntje> RMB: its better to talk here, other people may want to read along or know more than me
[20:21] <Trijntje> RMB: tell me what you have done sofar
[20:21] <RMB> I have tried starting Pidgin from Applications, and it just connects and connects but never finishes and says I am available

[21:04] <[tla]> hi.  i want to install some packages on a system not connected to the internet.  i have a second system that is internet connected, so i have: apt-get --download-only dist-upgrade; apt-get --download-only install <other packages>; created a local repository index for main / restricted / multiverse / universe; copied the local index, setup /etc/apt/sources.list to point to the index and...
[21:04] <[tla]> ...copied /var/cache/apt/archive.  When I run apt-get dist-upgrade on the target machine it just says nothing needs to be done.  Ideas on what I am doing wrong appreciated.  Thx.
[21:04] <Trijntje> ActionParsnip: mount -o rw,user,uid=1000 gives an error that 'something' is wrong
[21:04] <gwildor> ActionParsnip, looks like nsp is... and like 3 days last week there was this guy ...screaming at me....too bad they didnt get it working..
[21:04] <nsp> kevb: Have the networking set to dhcp
[21:05] <gwildor> nuketro0p3r, look for the proper package name... wtf is gufw ?
[21:05] <nsp> kevb: Which is default for most systems anyway.
[21:05] <kevb> Okay, well, it's not working.  How can get the firewall script?
[21:05] <kevb> nsp ^
[21:05] <ActionParsnip> Trijntje: you need the device and the mount point included in the mount command
[21:05] <kaie> hi. ubuntu 9.04 jaunty, gnome default desktop. how can I use the keyboard to access the logout action, the control in the screen's upper right? neither ctrl-esc nor alt-f11 help me.
[21:05] <nuketro0p3r> its a gui for ufw ^_^
[21:05] <nsp> locate firewall
[21:05] <kevb> is that a command?
[21:05] <Ph`> hi, somebody knows if it's possible to use a usb wifi dongle Netgear WN111 with Ubuntu 9.04 N
[21:05] <nuketro0p3r> gwildor: tis' a gui for ufw :$
[21:05] <Ph`> ?
[21:06] <gwildor> nuketro0p3r, try searching ufw in synaptic... i guess..
[21:06] <nuketro0p3r> I have ufw :P
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> Ph`: if you run: sudo lshw -C network | grep product
[21:06] <treble54> anyone have any issues with WICD on Gnome ?
[21:06] <enr1que> So whats up with firefox quicktime playback
[21:06] <nuketro0p3r> what I need is gufw

[21:06] <Barnose> I tried to install wine from the Add/remove and it gave me an error. Now I can't open sypax manager. tells to manaualy configure a????
[21:06] <Trijntje> ActionParsnip: I have done that, I left it out for clarity. If I only use the option " -o rw" it mounts, but i cant add/delete any files to the disk
[21:06] <gwildor> nuketro0p3r, then look for gufw in synaptic.... though searching for ufw will show you all things related to it... including gufw..
[21:06] <Biacz> nuketro0p3r: try to use synaptic
[21:06] <Silver_Swords> kaie: i think you'll need ndiswraper for that.
[21:06] <treble54> I'm debating on switching to it but I've heard there are issues with it and I'm already experiencing issues with newtworkmanager with hidden networks on Gnome
[21:07] <nuketro0p3r> @gwildor and Biacs: thanks, let me give it a try.

[21:07] <enr1que> wow, So many people in here.
[21:07] <pagan> how to back gui?
[21:07] <christophe_> proper failure in conf. since u cant launch synaptic, so remove the line, what i causing the error
[21:07] <Silver_Swords> sorry.. that was meant for Ph'
[21:07] <nsp> kevb: What did you use to enalbe or set up ICS?

[21:08] <nsp> !firestarter > kevb
[21:08] <christophe_> and install wine from terminal or synaptic
[21:08] <Barnose> Please what does this mean? E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[21:08] <Barnose> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[21:08] <pagan> Myrtti, ActionParsnip thanks ;)
[21:08] <SuperMiguel> whats the best program to add true transparency to fluxbox?
[21:08] <purpley> i need to run an app and it needs gtk but how do i find gtk?

[21:08] <gwildor> kevb, are you trying to  PC<->PC.. if so, save  yourself hours.....and actually get it working... get a crossover cable... or make one..they are easy
[21:08] <ActionParsnip> Barnose: run the command it says
[21:08] <nich0las> Hello
[21:08] <Trijntje> !please|barnose
[21:08] <gwildor> nuketro0p3r, i think add/remove doesnt show libs...or something.... i dont use it much.
[21:08] <purpley> !GIMP
[21:08] <Trijntje> barnose: it means go to a terminal and type what it says
[21:08] <guntbert> nuketro0p3r: they are different programs with similar tasks - Add/remove is a bit "simpler"
[21:09] <Trijntje> !terminal|barnose
[21:09] <SuperMiguel> whats the best program to add true transparency to fluxbox?
[21:09] <kevb> gwildor, err, why would I need a crossover cable, I have a hub.
[21:09] <kevb> The network works fine.
[21:09] <treble54> anyone in here know a bit about the DockBarX applet? I'd like tasks and launchers to be combined
[21:09] <Trijntje> Actionparsnip: I will go read that, thanks for your time
[21:09] <jcmarini> purpley;  what about installing gtk with synaptic
[21:09] <Silver_Swords> kaie: sorry, that was meant for Ph'
[21:09] <Biacz> sonemone knows an irfanview like tool for linux? small tool to resize - rename (batch) - color correction - pics
[21:09] <Barnose> Trijntje: It tells me when I type that command dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege
[21:09] <gwildor> kevb, i missed a large part of the convo... and it *sounded* like you were doing PC<--->PC     not PC<-->hub<-->PC
[21:10] <IdleOne> Barnose: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[21:10] <ActionParsnip> SuperMiguel: xcompmgr is ok

[21:10] <Biacz> thanks @ gwildor
[21:11] <nuketro0p3r> @gwildor: Package gufw has no available version, but exists in the database.

[21:11] <purpley> yes
[21:11] <ActionParsnip> kevb: pc to pc needs crossover cable dues to this: http://www.archonmagnus.com/mods/crossOverCable/crossOverCableDiagram2.jpg
[21:11] <Agony_> How long should a fsck.vfat take, normally, roughly?
[21:11] <purpley> if i didnt then i wouldnt be seeing addons
[21:11] <jcmarini> purpley; you will find gtk there
[21:11] <ActionParsnip> kevb: TX -> RX. See how the cables crossover
[21:11] <kevb> actionparsnip, it's okay, that isn't the issue, I'm trying to get ICS working.
[21:11] <Agony_> And is it normal for a fsck.vfat to have no progress bar or anything?
[21:11] <purpley> no?
[21:11] <Barnose> Trijntje: Thanks, but now I type that command it gives me this. Setting up cxchromium (0.9.0-1) ...
[21:11] <Barnose> cxbottle:warning: The current character encoding (UTF-8) may not be compatible with the encoding of the bottle (ISO-8859-1). This may cause applications to not find their files and thus lead to malfunctions.
[21:11] <gwildor> ActionParsnip, i guess they have a hub involved...
[21:11] <purpley> i see a bunch of applications that use gtk
[21:11] <kevb> Actionparsnip, I understand why people would need x-overs.
[21:12] <stephen__> Hi, I have a friend's machine hooked up to high speed and it is version 7.04 of Ubuntu.  Synaptic shows an option to upgrade to a newer version.  Is this fairly straight-forward or is the process in upgrading from 7.04 to the newest version full of pot holes?
[21:12] <ActionParsnip> kevb: if you connect to an interconnection device, you use a patch cable which i TX -> TX and RX -> RX
[21:12] <purpley> and they work fine so i have gtk
[21:12] <purpley> i just cant ind it
[21:12] <kevb> nsp:  I  used the link the bot gave me when I mentioned ICS, I followed the instruction verbatim.
[21:12] <nsp> kevb: ps aux |grep dhcpd #To see if the dhcp server is running (apparently it is not configured and running - in which chase, you would have to manually configure each PC you plug in to share the net - which is to say you would have to do:  ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.x ; route add default <IP_ADDRESS> ; and then edit /etc/resolve.conf to reflect nameservers as needed.
[21:12] <ActionParsnip> gwildor: hub uses patch still, unless you have an uplink port which uses crossover
[21:12] <Trijntje> barnose: yes, it will now try to configure any packages it was trying to install when things went wrong
[21:13] <jcmarini> !aptget
[21:13] <ndiswrap> I am getting weak wifi signal on my school network, will adding a USB linksys wifi adapter help me boost signal /
[21:13] <gwildor> ActionParsnip, yeah, i was just saying ... they dont need a corssover, in this case.
[21:13] <kevb> nsp: the other machines are windows.
[21:13] <ActionParsnip> gwildor: indeed
[21:13] <jcmarini> !apt-get

[21:13] <Barnose> Trijntje: how cna i remove that google garbage. I don't want it anymore
[21:13] <purpley> ive done that
[21:13] <Silver_Swords> ndiswrap: please explain more.
[21:13] <nsp> kevb: You'll need to configure dhcp server to hand out IP information to the PC as it is plugged in and booted up.

[21:14] <gwildor> purpley,  locate gtk  | more
[21:14] <jcmarini> purpley;https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto
[21:14] <kevb> nsp: can't there just be a "enable ICS button" somewhere?
[21:14] <Trijntje> barnose: what are you trying to do?
[21:14] <j2daosh> how can I do a regex grep? i have 5 different kinds of strings, but I need to search against only 2 of them. i cant pipe it because it will be one or the other

[21:14] <gwildor> purpley, why do you need it located?
[21:14] <stephen__> guntbert: so will aptitude take care of that... I see the ubottu post
[21:14] <purpley> gwildor, I said i did that
[21:14] <purpley> jcmarini, that wont work
[21:14] <losher> stephen__: I'm surprised there is an option, I thought 7.04 was unsupported. Regardless, there's always a chance something will go wrong and leave the system unusable. The only defence against that in the end is to have a good backup, so do that first....
[21:14] <purpley> ive already tried
[21:14] <purpley> and so i can run a game
[21:14] <j2daosh> so "grep string file|grep -v "#" | grep (site1||site2)?
[21:15] <Barnose> Trijntje: I installed the web browser chromium and it didn't work properly. Then I went to Add / Remove to get Wine and it didn't install, then I went to manager to install it and got error.
[21:15] <dangerstat> Quick question lads, having a problem su'ing root, can't figure out why?
[21:15] <stephen__> losher: thanks - I would be even happy to just update all of the files rather than upgrade.
[21:15] <guntbert> stephen__: please look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - its a multi step process
[21:15] <jcmarini> purpley; please be soecific about what you trying
[21:15] <ActionParsnip> Is there a way in gnome to make the bottom bar 2 rows high?
[21:15] <j2daosh> dangerstat: because root isn't enabled by default. stick with sudo for now
[21:16] <stephen__> losher: some of the files come from servers that can't be found.  I will look into their names.
[21:16] <guntbert> !root | dangerstat

[21:16] <nuketro0p3r> ^_^ thanks :P
[21:16] <ActionParsnip> dangerstat: use    sudo -i
[21:17] <losher> stephen__: I think that's because 7.04 has end-of-lifed. But see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1003697
[21:17] <dangerstat> thanks ActionParsnip
[21:17] <jcmarini> purpley; what are you attempting to do. there is help here.
[21:17] <kevb> Why is nothing found when i search for firestarter in Add/Remove applications?
[21:17] <j2daosh> what is sudo -i?
[21:17] <purpley> sigh
[21:17] <purpley> did you read what i said ffs
[21:17] <Trijntje> barnose: if you go to the manager and select chromium there, you should be able to remove it
[21:18] <losher> j2daosh: see man sudo...
[21:18] <IdleOne> purpley: you are being vague. we cannot help if you don't properly describe what you want to do
[21:18] <stephen__> losher: that would make sense.  this might be 8.x - not sure.
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> j2daosh: interactive sudo
[21:18] <j2daosh> right now im on a windows box, so humor me
[21:18] <nuketro0p3r> kevb: firestarter is no more developed, try using gufw. Its a GUI for ufw :)
[21:18] <purpley> Idleone how do idescribe nymore?
[21:18] <nsp> kevb: You'll need to configure the dhcp server.  You can do that by editing /etc/dhcpd.conf with something like:  http://pastebin.ca/1545024  and then turn on the dhcp server.  (Change IPs to correspond to the second nic and your ICS configuration.)
[21:19] <losher> stephen__: more /etc/issue to find out the version...
[21:19] <ActionParsnip> j2daosh: saves having to type sudo for each command until you type exit, you will be your own user with elevated priveledges
[21:19] <IdleOne> purpley: calmly and with as much info as possible. all in 1 post
[21:19] <purpley> I need to run a game that needs GTK+2 to be opened with it

[21:19] <jcmarini> purpley; please give a quick idea. questions will be answered if you help us understand.
[21:19] <IdleOne> purpley: what game? where did you get it? what is the error your getting?
[21:19] <j2daosh> purpley wants a gtk2 game but he cant find it
[21:20] <purpley> no
[21:20] <nuketro0p3r> does AutoIt scripts work under ubuntu ?
[21:20] <moymoy> ActionParsnip: what about sudo -s? that does the same thing, but user becomes root, so it's the same as sudo su?
[21:20] <purpley> there is no eror
[21:20] <Barnose> Trijntje: I think I got it. Thank you

[21:20] <purpley> it needs to be started with GTK+2
[21:20] <purpley> if i start it with anything else
[21:20] <nuketro0p3r> try running it from the terminal purpley...
[21:20] <ndiswrap> Silver_Swords: the signal is really week, my laptop already has wifi card, I am trying to add a linksys usb wifi adapater to the laptop, will adding this help boost signal ?
[21:20] <purpley> i get an error obviously
[21:20] <ActionParsnip> moymoy: yes you will be 'root' and not $USER so $HOME will be /root instead of your users home
[21:20] <nuketro0p3r> it will give you a comprehensive error then
[21:20] <kevb> gufw isn't foudn either
[21:21] <guntbert> purpley: yes, and if you want help you should tell us that error
[21:21] <losher> stephen__: ok then forget about the obsolete repositories thing. Find out why some of your current repos aren't responding.
[21:21] <Biacz> .
[21:21] <nuketro0p3r> kevb: try sudo apt-get install gufw
[21:21] <nsp> kevb: If you do not turn also on named, you will need to set "option domain-name-servers" to the nameserver you are using for the host pc.
[21:21] <purpley> well
[21:21] <[tla]> losher: Can I try this out on the same machine?  ie if I use the stock sources.list and do apt-get dist-upgrade it says I need to install 60MB+.  If I point sources.list to my local index (deb file:///...) and run apt-get dist-upgrade it says nothing needs applying.  I tried your suggestion but apt says nothing needs applying to the local server?
[21:21] <Silver_Swords> ndiswrap: adding another wont help boost. but using another wifi(usb) may have a better reception.
[21:21] <purpley> theres probably different ones depending on what type of application i want it to run with
[21:21] <nuketro0p3r> kevb: gufw doesn't work on my 8.04 btw

[21:23] <purpley> i cant find gtk+2.0
[21:23] <stephen__> losher: I think it was dependency issues.  There is now a clean update going on after I updatedthe package list.

[21:29] <erUSUL> Trijntje: he is gone
 ok i did, what did that do?
[21:30] <Trijntje> ah, i missed that one, sorry to all operators for wasting time

[21:32] <bit324life> Hi, I can't log into my ubuntu system. I get a error.
[21:32] <Lancen833> I'm having an unusual boot issue: After grub posts, it starts trying to check my HDD for the files for ubuntu, but it times out and says "no response" after a few seconds. If I manually boot up through grub it works just fine. Anyone have ideas as to how I can fix this?
[21:32] <moymoy> cmp: try this... close whatever theme thing you have opened.. and type this into the terminal.. `killall gnome-settings-daemon`
[21:32] <nsp> Agony_: Depends on the size of the HD and the speed of the PC
[21:32] <moymoy> cmp: then open up the theme manager again
[21:32] <moymoy> cmp: and try to install
[21:32] <Trijntje> bit324life: be specific, what is the error you get, when do you get it, etc
[21:32] <bit324life> the error say's cannot execute /etc/gdm/Xsession default [6263]
[21:33] <guntbert> Agony_: I'd say it depends on the size of the partition - but I have no actual values
[21:33] <Arenlor> erUSUL: It did fix several major bugs and several major security bugs.
[21:33] <moymoy> llua: okay.. now you know /dev/sda5 belongs to vista, all you have to do is delete that partition
[21:33] <bit324life> I get it when I try to login the system.
[21:33] <moymoy> llua: i don't know if this'll work, but you can try `dd if=/dev/null of=/dev/sda5
[21:33] <bit324life> at the screen where you type in the username and password. It then takes about 5 seconds and then it spit that out.
[21:33] <Agony_> Well, I ran a fsck.vfat on a 200Gb partition, and I just got a line giving the version of dosfsck I'm using in the terminal, does that mean it's working?
 will it remove vista from the boot order?
[21:33] <erUSUL> Arenlor: if it where that imortant they where backported to 3.0 which comes in jaunty
[21:34] <moymoy> llua: nope.. you have to edit your menu.lst file to remove it from the boot menu
[21:34] <bit324life> then it spits another errory saying sorry you have a internal error.
[21:34] <bucky> Arenlor, http://webupd8.blogspot.com/2009/05/install-openoffice-31-in-ubuntu-jaunty.html
[21:34] <Sam___> when i try to install the screen freezes, i can select que language but then when i select any of the options ( "check the memory" "install ubuntu" "use ubuntu without modify mi pc" "boot from first disk") the screen freezes, any idea?
[21:34] <Agony_> It's been running for nearly an hour now
[21:34] <moymoy> llua: `sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst` then scroll down to the windows entry and delete it
i dont see it in the menu.lst just vista boot loader
[21:34] <Arenlor> bucky: Thanks, any clue if 3.1 will be in the next release?
[21:34] <bit324life> then  a error log window comes up saying cannot execute /etc/gdm/Xsession default [6263]
[21:34] <guntbert> llua: just by deleting a partition? no, you will have to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst too
[21:35] <moymoy> llua: you can delete it.... title VISta blah blah chainloader +1 and all that stuff right?
[21:35] <bit324life> I am guessing that /etc/gdm/Xsession dosen't have the right permissions or something.
[21:35] <Trijntje> bit324life: i cannot help you with that i'm afraid. You should write all you just wrote in one question (as short as possible) and ask it again
[21:35] <bit324life> would like to know what permisions it needs.
[21:35] <ActionParsnip> moymoy: you can use /dev/zero too
[21:36] <moymoy> ActionParsnip: good to know... i've never actually done it before, so i'm not really sure.. /dev/null does the same too right?
[21:36] <Lancen833>  I'm having an unusual boot issue: After grub posts, it starts trying to check my HDD for the files for ubuntu, but it times out and says "no response" after a few seconds.Then it resets back to bios and tries again. If I manually boot up through grub it works just fine. Anyone have ideas as to how I can fix this?
[21:36] <bucky> Arenlor, it's available in Karmic now
[21:36] <ActionParsnip> moymoy: hmm, sounds ok
[21:36] <guntbert> Agony_: 200GB is a lot to check, and vfat, I'm not surprised. linux apps are not *very* verbose anyway, they tend to tell you if something goes wrong

[21:38] <nsp> Lancen833: Just re-state the issues a little more clearly.
[21:38] <moymoy> llua: yup, delete that... but what bothers me is that your menu.lst has the wrong partition .. it says /dev/sda1 while your blkid output says that Vista is on /dev/sda5... and it'd be horrible if i made you delete the wrong partition

[21:42] <Lancen833> nsp: It seems that the problem has resolved itself. Thanks for your help
[21:42] <nsp> Lancen833: After a certain number of boots it will stop and do a routine check of the filesystem and fix any errors it finds, that may have been what was happening.

[21:44] <trism> you can change permissions with chmod
[21:44] <Sam___> i write su, then ask me for the password, i write it, and try to change the password from other user with: passwd accountname
[21:45] <kri> hi how can i list files in terminal and see file size in MB? can i do that switch?
[21:45] <guntbert> Sam___: use sudo - NOT su ! and use your own password
[21:45] <purpley> jcmarini, im fine
[21:45] <purpley> i know how to use chmod
[21:45] <kri> ls -l show files and in bytes can i do a edit somewhere so i list it in MB instat of bytes?

[21:45] <Strife89> Hello, I'm having an issue with using multiple monitors. The first time I tried to attach a CRT to my laptop, I went to Preferences -> Display, and tried to turn on the CRT. However, "Monitor Resolution Settings detected that the virtual resolution must be set in [my] configuration file ... to apply the settings." When I gave it the go-ahead, my screen resolutions went haywire.
[21:46] <metalfan_> kri, do that switch
[21:46] <metalfan_> kri, ls -alh
[21:46] <nsp> Sam___: Are you changing the password to the user account that you are currently logged into?
[21:46] <nsp> Sam___:  If so, just use command passwd
[21:46] <Strife89> I was unable to put my screen resolution back to normal, and ended up reinstalling Ubuntu. Any ideas what happened, and how I can make it work properly?
[21:46] <guntbert> purpley: glad it worked at last for you :-)
[21:46] <jcmarini> sometimes when I try to help...I don't.cheers.
[21:46] <kri> metalfan_: that shows a total of the folder i want the files
[21:46] <purpley> yeah lol
[21:46] <purpley> i had to get a guy rom another server
[21:47] <moymoy> Strife89: make sure you have the right monitor selected when you change the resolution and uncheck the mirror option... other than that, i don't know what else you can do.. log out and log back into gnome
[21:47] <usser> Strife89: no need to reinstall in those cases. just do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and everything should be back to normal
[21:47] <kri> reads the man page ls --help
[21:47] <Sam___> i can do that, because i'm in recovery mode; the normal mode do not let me login, says login failed; that's why i'm trying to change it
[21:47] <metalfan_> kri, ls -alh yourfolder/

[21:50] <IdleOne> purplenurple_: the post is one line. ( not separated by excessive amounts of ENTER )
[21:51] <adelie42> is there a channel specifically for ubuntu users using the andLinux kernel?

[21:51] <brennus> grifulkin: I'm using the avant window manage (awn) and you can replicated all aspects of the gnome panel, only in a prettier form.
 yea, but i heard vista takes over xp's bootloader
[21:51] <ikonia> adelie42: "andlinux kernel" ?
[21:51] <brennus> avant window navigator
[21:52] <moymoy> llua: really? then there's no point in deleting the entry from menu.lst
[21:52] <moymoy> llua: but deleting your vista partition could still be a good idea if you want more harddrive space..

[21:53] <Grifulkin> brennus, I don't know than, sorry, on mine I deleted the bottom panel and moved the one from the top to the bottom and added stuff to it, you could try to hide the panel, but that is my best guess.

[21:56] <ikonia> toni__: visit http://www.ubuntu.com
[21:56] <Kittykis> Strife89, it's an option in compiz somewhere
[21:56] <Sam___> nsp: no, but i thought about changin it, because, when i try to login it says Login Failed
[21:56] <moymoy> toni__: go to ubuntu.com ;)
[21:56] <toni__> why do i need to see ubuntu.com for
[21:56] <Strife89> Kittykis: Yes, but that's the trouble: where? :)
[21:56] <Kittykis> i'm looking :)
[21:56] <orksbane> try irssi in Gnu screen
[21:56] <moymoy> toni__: you can download ubuntu from there
[21:57] <DasEi> !install | toni__
[21:57] <kevb> Can anyone tell me how to setup ICS with gufw?
[21:57] <Kittykis> opacity, brightness, and saturation
[21:57] <Kittykis> enable that
[21:57] <Gnea> ubuntistas: sure, use pdftotext to convert it to a .txt file, then run it through festival
[21:57] <Kittykis> in ccsm
[21:57] <nsp> Sam___: See if the user directory still exists:  ls /home
[21:57] <vaiy> ubuntistas, festival can read pdfs: less myfile.pdf | festival --tts
[21:57] <Evelina> Why isn't it possible to connect to Internet after I changed the MAC using macchanger? I could connect to the wireless connection before?
[21:58] <Goldenjo> Dows anyone knows how to get the mkinitrd program?
[21:58] <toni__> i dont need ubuntu .i have ubuntu .what i need to know is to know how i can get unix not ubuntu linux
[21:58] <moymoy> Gnea: aren't pdf's usually image files?
[21:58] <nsp> Sam___: And then do  su - <user-name>
[21:58] <Strife89> Kittykis: Sorry, but in where?
[21:58] <codazoda> Evelina: Does your router allow access by MAC?
[21:58] <Gnea> moymoy: pdf's are pdf's
[21:58] <toni__> well
[21:58] <ubuntistas> so do i have to install festival gnea
[21:58] <ubuntistas> ?
[21:58] <Gnea> moymoy: it's basically a different level of postscript
[21:58] <vaiy> ubuntistas, yes
[21:58] <iuri> hi there, i am about to become crazy with my keyboard freaking behavior. The default idiom is english . but when i set to portuguese from brazil i lost the ? and / keys
[21:58] <Gnea> ubuntistas: yup
[21:59] <Strife89> !compiz
[21:59] <Kittykis> Strife89, compiz config settings manager
[21:59] <Kittykis> sorry
[21:59] <nsp> Sam___: At what point is it not allowing you to log in?  (Is it the GUI login screen?)
[21:59] <toni__> how do i get os /unix
[21:59] <moymoy> toni__: you can try openSolaris
[21:59] <ikonia> toni__: you've been told
[21:59] <jebus> erUSUL para tu spam
[21:59] <iuri> does anyone already got into this trouble
[21:59] <ikonia> toni__: visit http://www.ubuntu.com

[21:59] <iuri> :
[21:59] <Kittykis> compizconfig-settings-manager for the exact package
[21:59] <Strife89> Kittykis: I'm trying to remember the package name for CCSM, do you know it?
[21:59] <ikonia> !ccsm
[21:59] <DasEi> iuri : you can use dpkg to configure it, use detect layout by keypress
[22:00] <moymoy> toni__: you can try openSolaris which is unix.. or you can go to distrowatch and look for whatever distro of linux / unix you want
[22:00] <Strife89> Thanks, ikonia. :)
[22:00] <iuri> DasEi, what do you mean
[22:00] <iuri> how do i use dpkg on this
[22:00] <Evelina> codazoda: I don't have a router at all. I'm trying to connect to a wireless Internet connection using WEP. It works using the original MAC but not since I changed the MAC using macchanger.
[22:00] <ikonia> moymoy: this is ubuntu support only please - he's been told what to do
[22:00] <nsp> toni__: Are you just bulding a system for Desktop use?  If so, you are probably better off with Linux.
[22:01] <ubuntistas> then how i can i make it work gnea, vaiy
[22:01] <ubuntistas> ?
[22:01] <Sam___> nsp: actually my problem is that the normal mode (the gui) doesn't accept the password for root or the other administrator user; and it happens since i update my operating system... i did logged in with a user from the domain, but when i try to install something, ask me for the password of an administrator, and it says that is incorrect
[22:01] <erdos> uuuuuuuuuuuuuu
[22:01] <ware_> har ett litet problem angående temp
[22:01] <kevb> anybody know of a simple way to set up ICS please?
[22:01] <ikonia> !ics > kevb
[22:02] <codazoda> Evelina: Sounds like you are connecting to a wireless router.  My router only allows certain MAC addresses to connect.  You might also try restarting your network?
[22:02] <nsp> Sam___: The password you use is just the user password.  If you don't know it, change it now that you are in recovery mode.
[22:02] <casa> hola
[22:02] <kevb> ikonia: I followed those isntructions to the letter twice.
[22:02] <jebus> erUSUL eres pvto?

[22:02] <casa> español
[22:02] <ikonia> kevb: then what's the problem ?
[22:02] <kevb> ikonia: didn't work.
[22:02] <ikonia> kevb: what didn't
[22:02] <ikonia> kevb: what part failed ?
[22:02] <casa> español
[22:02] <snarkster> how do you change the way icons are placed? I want them to go left to right not down
[22:02] <nsp> Sam___: And you can not log into the GUI as root.  (You can
[22:02] <ikonia> !es > casa
[22:02] <lateralus01> i'm trying to boot a liveCD but it dumps me at initramfs, if i remove quite from the boot options i can see the kernel output before but it flashes by the screen too fast so how do i read it?
[22:02] <codazoda> Evelina: The wireless hot spot will keep track of you by your MAC.  Changing your MAC, therefore, may require you to re-connect.
[22:02] <kevb> My internet connection is not shared.
[22:02] <stinky> Hello, I am looking for a way to record my desktop sounds, and video game sounds on ubuntu 9.04 for my blender animation, TIA :D
[22:02] <ikonia> kevb: what part of those instructions didn't work ?
[22:03] <kevb> ikonia ^
[22:03] <nich0las> Hi. Can someone tell me where I find the Synaptic screen.. to type those "sudo apt" commands?
[22:03] <lindenle1> Is Gamin gone in the newest ubuntu? Does that make listing files terribly slow over NFS?
[22:03] <nsp> Sam___: And you can not log into the GUI as root.  (You can't log in as root under any circumstance, ubuntu does not allow root login by default.)
[22:03] <ikonia> nich0las: applications -> accessories -> terminal
[22:03] <kevb> ikonia: no errors were given, it's just that now that I've done it, internet connection sharing doesn't suddenly work.
[22:03] <snarkster> nich0las: just open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install and what ever packages you need
[22:03] <codazoda> nich0las: You type "sudo apt" in the terminal. Application, Accessories, Terminal.
[22:03] <vaiy> ubuntistas, just install and try the command: less myfile.pdf | festival --tts
[22:03] <nsp> Sam___: You need to log in under the primary user's username.
[22:03] <ikonia> kevb: doesn't work suddenly - that implies it was working ?
[22:03] <DasEi> iuri : sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a lets you choose the setup ( amongst other settings) , I 'm just missing the syntax for sudo dpkg --configure ? consolesetup ? keyboard ? second
[22:04] <snarkster> how do you change the lay out of icons?
[22:04] <nich0las> Thank you all
[22:04] <kri> guntbert: was nothing about aliases there and i like to know how i can type a alias in a single row without open it and so its stucks there in that file.
[22:04] <lateralus01> i'm trying to boot a liveCD but it dumps me at initramfs, if i remove quite from the boot options i can see the kernel output before but it flashes by the screen too fast so how do i read it?
[22:04] <codazoda> nich0las: Fr a GUI use System, Administration Synaptic.
[22:04] <kevb> ikonia, not "doesn't work suddenly", "doesn't sudenly work", as in "having followed the instructions, it's not as if it's all of a sudden working"
[22:04] <ikonia> kevb: please show me the iptables commands you used
[22:05] <kevb> ikonia: these: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing?action=show&redirect=InternetConnectionSharing
[22:05] <ikonia> kevb: you typed them exactly ?
[22:05] <nsp> Sam___:  What ever the first user was, is what I am calling "primary user".  (If you have added a second or third user, those will not be afforded admin privileges unless you make those changes yourself.)
[22:05] <kevb> I copy pasted them exactly.
[22:05] <guntbert> kri: I'd have to search myself because I don't use aliases - please wait a moment
[22:05] <lateralus01> /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[22:05] <jebus> erUSUL eres pvto?
[22:05] <ikonia> kevb: are you using the same network addresses as the EXAMPLE in the guide shows ?
[22:05] <ubuntistas> vaiy i did that but does not appear something

[22:05] <erUSUL> !ops | jebus
[22:05] <iuri> DasEi, okay but that i tried and it wont solve the issue
[22:06] <ubuntistas> in the command i mean vaiy
[22:06] <ikonia> erUSUL: he's been warned
[22:06] <kevb> ikonia: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing?action=show&redirect=InternetConnectionSharing?
[22:06] <Sam___> nsp: i'm not in recovery mode, i'm in the session of the domain user with no provileges for administration or installation... in recovery mode, i login with root and it accept the password that i know, but in normal mode, doesn't accept that password... and if i try in recovery mode, of set the passsword for the primary user, it says the error;: authentication token manipulation error
[22:06] <kevb> ikonia: oops, sorry I meant <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:06] <iuri> DasEi, I am looking for something that allows me to set up the keys
[22:06] <vaiy> ubuntistas, try: echo "test" | festival --tts
[22:06] <ikonia> kevb: that's not a network range - that's a ip address, you need to use the correct range data
[22:06] <jebus> donde me puedo quejar contra el op prepotente erUSUL???
[22:06] <jebus> ?
[22:06] <kevb> ikonia, I understand that.
[22:07] <kevb> ikonia: I copy pasted exactly.
[22:07] <ikonia> kevb: ok great
[22:07] <ikonia> kevb: so from your client traceroute to the internet - what happens
[22:07] <kevb> ikonia: what do you mean by "the internet", an ip of a server I know to be up?
[22:07] <ubuntistas> yes it's working vaiy
[22:08] <ikonia> kevb: no - try www.google.com
[22:08] <Elmnas> hi guys how do I unistall rpms?
[22:08] <ikonia> kevb: make sure you use name server resolution
[22:08] <ubuntistas> what can i do now?
[22:08] <kevb> ikonia: yeah, that's what i mean
[22:08] <ikonia> Elmnas: rpm's are for redhat based systems
[22:08] <ikonia> Elmnas: how did you install it on an ubuntu system
[22:08] <lateralus01> i'm trying to boot a liveCD but it dumps me at initramfs, if i remove quite from the boot options i can see the kernel output before but it flashes by the screen too fast so how do i read it?
[22:08] <lateralus01> can i slow it down?
[22:08] <kevb> ikonia: unable to resolve target system name.
[22:08] <vaiy> ubuntistas, if you don't hear anything when using the pdf it might not contain text. sometimes pdfs just contain images, for example of scanned text
[22:08] <lateralus01> is it stored in a file anywhere?
[22:09] <ikonia> kevb: ok so your clients can't use dns - that's nothing to do with the connection sharing at this time
[22:09] <lateralus01> can anyone hear me?
[22:10] <kevb> ikonia: okay, so I'll try an ip addres, yeah?
[22:10] <ubuntistas> it has not images vaiy
[22:10] <lateralus01> hello?
[22:10] <kevb> ikonia, mind if we do thsi via pm?
[22:10] <quantum> lateralus01, i can
[22:10] <quantum> but i can't help you
[22:10] <quantum> :)
[22:10] <ikonia> kevb: I'd rather not - other people in the channel can take over when I leave
[22:10] <kevb> ikonia: understood
[22:10] <guntbert> kri: 1) type alias lsmb='ls -lh'  (including the quotes), the try lsmb, 2) edit the file .bashrc in your homedirectory, at the end you find several aliases, add your own (do you know how to edit a file in linux?)
[22:10] <ikonia> kevb: try an IP sure
[22:11] <NeXstaR> how do one install that conky gadget on wallpaper etc?
[22:11] <moymoy> kri: it's better to add your aliases to a new file in your home directory .bash_aliases
[22:11] <DasEi1> iuri: got it ?

[22:12] <DasEi1> Elmnas: ask #linux for yum support ?
[22:12] <guntbert> moymoy, kri: right, I forgot that file - but still .bashrc contains some examples to use

[22:13] <kri> moymoy: yes ive just reintsalled so their is no .bash_aliases... but i know there is possible to not edit the file later on if i come up with something
[22:13] <ikonia> Elmnas: that's a problem then
[22:13] <cabrioleur> ikonia, ubuntu I mean
[22:13] <ikonia> cabrioleur: I'm aware of that, htat's why I asked how he did it

[22:13] <treble54> anyone know why my processor spikes (according to the system monitor applet) after I bring my laptop out of sleep mode?
[22:13] <kevb> so the first hop I guess
[22:13] <ikonia> ok so on the client what is your default gateway
[22:13] <treble54> (or rather, has anyone seen that kind of behavior?)
[22:13] <moymoy> guntbert: kri: it's easier to have a separate file.. and you wouldn't have to keep editing your bashrc file .. what if it's not backed up?!
[22:14] <moymoy> treble54: it should spike after coming out of sleep... but don't use gnome-system-monitor to monitor CPU usage.. because it causes Xorg to spike anyway, so it's inaccurate
[22:14] <guntbert> moymoy: point well taken - I didn't criticize you anyway :-)
[22:14] <moymoy> treble54: use `top` in the terminal.. much more accurate
[22:15] <KaiForce> any rdesktop experts?
[22:15] <NeXstaR> how do one install that conky gadget on wallpaper etc?
[22:15] <moymoy> guntbert: it's just that i don't have a habit of making backups, so always have to assume other people don't either =p
[22:15] <ikonia> KaiForce: just ask the question
[22:15] <KaiForce> ikonia:  I did
[22:15] <guntbert> moymoy: :-)
[22:15] <KaiForce> don't want to spam chan
[22:15] <ikonia> KaiForce: what do you want help with - you asked for rdesktop expects, it's not exactly a support question or a big topic

[22:22] <^Phantom^> I want to say thank you to the developers of ubuntu.  I plugged in my bluetooth dongle for the first time today (been using ubuntu since around the beginning of the year), afraid it wasn't compatible, and ubuntu picked it up almost immediately as I did so!
[22:22] <Strife89> Pici: Thanks. :)
[22:22] <Strife89> nsp: Noted. :)
[22:22] <ikonia> kevb: it looks like your ubuntu firewall application is conflicting with your rules
[22:22] <toni__> i just like to know
[22:23] <kevb> ikonia: over my head
[22:23] <ikonia> toni__: this is NOT the channel
[22:23] <DasEi1> toni__: try #linux for a broader audience
[22:23] <ikonia> kevb: please do "sudo iptables -X" please
[22:23] <toni__> how
[22:23] <ikonia> toni__: type "/join ##linux" without the " marks
[22:23] <ikonia> kevb: then re-paste iptables -L
[22:23] <DasEi1> toni__: /join   #linux      (in your messenger)

[22:23] <kevb> ikonia: too many links
[22:24] <guntbert> !askthebot | Strife89
[22:24] <ikonia> too many links ?

[22:24] <ikonia> kevb: nah, hang on
[22:24] <i00nsu> hi guys, any tutorial to configure internal-DNS?... I read some around internet and there is something I don't understand.. I must configure in all machines or only in the server?
[22:24] <nsp> Strife89: ls /usr/bin ; ls /usr/local/bin ; ls /usr/sbin ; ls /usr/loca/sbin    etc.etc.  See  $PATH
[22:24] <Strife89> guntbert: Thanks for the reference. :)
[22:24] <^Phantom^> Now, I have some questions about bluetooth in ubuntu.
[22:24] <ikonia> kevb: sudo iptables -F
[22:25] <guntbert> Strife89: have fun :-)
[22:25] <kevb> ikonia: nothing happened, just return to command prompt.
[22:25] <ikonia> kevb: rats, I need to leave, you need to flush your rules, then just re-apply the 3 iptables commands in the example
[22:25] <ikonia> kevb: nothing should happen.
[22:25] <waseem> Hi guys, my ubuntu has completely gone bust. Is there a way I can re-install ubuntu via my windows vista?
[22:25] <^Phantom^> I have a Motorola W490 cellular phone, and I want to use my laptop as a listening device, however, my phone is not finding the laptop.  How can I put it into pairing mode?
