[00:06] <twolane> jasballa: checking your ip.
[00:06] <jasballa> twolane: yah, defintely new isp but I'm positive that they have firewalls/no open ports
[00:06] <Minor723> If I have a Raid 0 with windows vista on it, can I install ubuntu on a different harddrive and have the opion to boot into Vista thats on the raid volume?
[00:07] <twolane> jasballa: sure they do. are you certain your server is running?
[00:07] <oCean_> deadlyallance439: well, in particular I meant to show the last lines, that it is no longer supported architecture.
[00:07] <jasballa> twolane: ran "sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd start" and said it started
[00:07] <jasballa> twolane: r there other ways to check?
[00:08] <deadlyallance439> ocean is that why psubuntu is not supported?
[00:08] <WaglioPeppino> salve
[00:08] <jasballa> twolane: in ftp mode says "not connected"
[00:08] <twolane> jasballa: you have no open ports, type netstat -tuap  look for vsftp and port 21
[00:08] <Minor723> Is there a better place to ask my question?
[00:08] <twolane> jasballa: if you're not firewalled, ftpd isn't running.
[00:09] <jasballa> twolane: transmission is running a lot of ports
[00:09] <openjs1> guys... what is Fedora super user privilege command line ?

[00:17] <deadlyallance439> ocean how about a channel for ubuntu for the The IBM PowerXCell2122 8i processor
[00:17] <dr_willis> Guest8485:  install putty, or some other ssh client,,. run it - give the ip of the server..
[00:17] <jasballa> twolane: but i'm working on a dev called buddhabuntu that needs filehosting
[00:17] <jasballa> twolane: *distro*
[00:17] <Guest8485> dr_willis: i have but it says error connection refuesed.
[00:17] <twolane> Guest8485: from putty? typein the ip address and connect
[00:17] <dr_willis> Guest8485:  then  you might of wanted to mention that in the fiorst place.. sounds like theres a firewall, or router or somthing btweeen the 2 pcs
[00:17] <r00tb33r> Anyone know how to setup up  ubuntu to print with a dell 5330dn network printer?
[00:18] <bluenzo> is vmware part of the repositories? how do i do a search for an app in the repositories?

[00:18] <Ouffy> hi

[00:19] <bluenzo> thanks oCean_
[00:19] <twolane> jasballa: will do
[00:19] <dave-ubuntu> it happens when launching gpa
[00:19] <Guest8485> dr_willis: the server is a laptop
[00:19] <ohzie> r00tb33r, Hey
[00:19] <oCean_> Guest8485: is the ssh server running? Is it listening at port 22 ?
[00:19] <dr_willis> Guest8485:  both are going into the same router so they are on the local lan - you mean to say?  see if they can ping each other. see if the ssh server can connect to itself via 'ssh localhost'
[00:19] <Guest8485> oCean_: well i set it to 512 but im setting it back to 22
[00:19] <r00tb33r> hi
[00:19] <Ouffy> a question please ... when writing ZIP CODES,  I write  "D" if its germany  (D-80331 München)  or "A" if its Austria (Like A-1010 Wien)
[00:20] <r00tb33r> ohzie
[00:20] <bluenzo> regardless oCean_ , how do I search the repositories for an app?
[00:20] <Ouffy> but: what do I write for Italy,  spain,  suiss and france?
[00:20] <oCean_> Guest8485: Your client will by default try port 22
[00:20] <ohzie> r00tb33r, http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/ubuntu-network-printer-391248/ <--This is a very informative post that explains why it won't work and how to fix it. :D

[00:20] <jasballa> twolane: restarted ftp server with new conf file plz try to connect to my ip
[00:20] <oCean_> bluenzo: Graphical through menu (add/remove) or command: "apt-cache search <string>"
[00:20] <Guest8485> oCean_: okay so how can i find out if its listening?
[00:20] <dave-ubuntu> can anyone help me with this problem>>>>>>>>> http://img91.imageshack.us/img91/604/screenshotgpaerror.png ?
[00:20] <jasballa> twolane: ran ftp localhost and it is good!
[00:20] <dave-ubuntu> it happens when launching gpa
[00:20] <nightrid3r> Ouffy: I = italy ES = spain FR = france BE = belgium
[00:20] <bluenzo> thanks oCean_ , sorry im a noob :|
[00:20] <jasballa> twolane: may have to chg permissions
[00:21] <r00tb33r> thanks ohzie
[00:21] <ohzie> r00tb33r, No problem man.
[00:21] <oCean_> Guest8485: After start (/etc/init.d/sshd start) check "sudo netstat -anp |grep 22"
[00:21] <nightrid3r> Ouffy: NL = netherlands
[00:21] <jasballa> will someobody mind helping me troubleshoot my ftp host?
[00:21] <jasballa> /try to connect?
[00:21] <oCean_> Guest8485: To make sure it works, try ssh locally (On your server, do 'ssh localhost' for example)
[00:21] <twolane> jasballa: No port open and you are blocking ICMP Pings, so you must be firewalled by a router or software
[00:22] <dave-ubuntu> can anyone help me with this problem>>>>>>>>> http://img91.imageshack.us/img91/604/screenshotgpaerror.png ?
[00:22] <dave-ubuntu> it happens when launching gpa

[00:24] <josher4> I need help with formatting a hard drive to one giant ntfs partition using Partition Editor. When I try to create a new partition, it "greys out" the ntfs option. Ideas?
[00:24] <oCean_> Guest8485: after changing port to 22 ? And re-tried from the other server?
[00:24] <suroegin> hello all!
[00:24] <twolane> jasballa: <IP_ADDRESS> does not answer ftp or return pings.
[00:24] <Guest8485> oCean_:  i didnt retry from the other sever yet
[00:25] <suroegin> who know good alternative of Adobe Acrobat?
[00:25] <Guest8485> oCean_: i did from putty from my windows computer but it wont work
[00:25] <twolane> jasballa: It's not configured
[00:25] <Gnea> suroegin: evince, xpdf
[00:25] <oCean_> josher4: default linux has no knowledge of NTFS, does not know how to create NTFS filesystem. So you have to install additional tools (My best guess: ntfsprogs - but not totally sure)
[00:25] <taz_> anyone know how to fix logitech webcam ??? right now my webcam not work
[00:26] <wrektjet> nothing doin on the +1 channel.. any ideas as to what happened to the display?
[00:26] <oCean_> Guest8485: is it possible to ping the laptop from the other box?
[00:26] <wrektjet> boots up but with no gui
[00:26] <suroegin> Gnea, thx!
[00:26] <Guest8485> oCean_:  let me try that
[00:26] <jasballa> twolane: I thought vsftpd was a GUI why am I doing all of this terminal work?
[00:26] <josher4> oCean_: I assume the proper code in Terminal would be "sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs"?
[00:27] <RickZilla> How can I add a user?  When I go to System-->Admin-->Users & Groups, the add feature is grayed out.
[00:27] <oCean_> josher4: indeed it is :)
[00:27] <Guest8485> oCean_:  all 4 icmp packets were sent and replied
[00:27] <jasballa> twolane: how do I configure?
[00:27] <josher4> oCean_: Ok, Thanks. Ill try that. brb
[00:27] <xnt> anyone have a link to the latest jaunty iso? all I find are the alphas
[00:28] <oCean_> Guest8485: ok. Using ssh (putty) do you get a login prompt?
[00:28] <Guest8485> oCean_: no i type in my ip and press ok and it comes up with a box witha green square and i get error connection refuesed
[00:28] <bluenzo> where is the most common place to get themes? form a site?
[00:29] <jasballa> twolane: tried another conf file maybe will work
[00:29] <jasballa> twolane: still having chroot_list prob
[00:29] <twolane> jasballa: do you open these conf files and read them?
[00:29] <josher4> oCean_: Great! That work perfectly, thanks again.
[00:29] <chalcedony> whoever uses dia .. how do i put text in?
[00:29] <dr_willis> bluenzo:  thers a lot of theme parts in the repos allready
[00:29] <josher4> oCean_: worked*
[00:29] <oCean_> Guest8485: well, then it seems it might have something todo with the router (in between) and/or firewall (on the laptop)
[00:30] <oCean_> josher4: great!
[00:30] <jasballa> twolane: ive been browsing the web for working vsftpd.conf files and replacing mine with those
[00:30] <Guest8485> oCean_: how can i fix that? im using a linksys wrt150n
[00:30] <twolane> jasballa: it seems ftpd needs to run in jail. you need to read the documentation. ssh/scp is better..
[00:30] <dr_willis>     Guest8485  is the laptop connected wirelessy? orwired?
[00:30] <Guest8485> dr_willis: wirelessly
[00:31] <dr_willis> Guest8485:  i would try ruinning a wire then and see if that affexcts things
[00:31] <jasballa> twolane: what do you mean? what is ssh/scp and how to use?
[00:31] <Guest8485> dr_willis: will do
[00:31] <jasballa> twolane: i think that I am close
[00:31] <dr_willis> Guest8485:  the wireless secuirty on the router may be doing somthing
[00:31] <jasballa> anyone want to try connecting to my ftp host so i can troubleshoot
[00:31] <cryptic> hey all .. i rmed a doc and i need it back .. any kind of tools or commands to get it back ?
[00:31] <dr_willis> !undelete
[00:32] <SlonUA> kqemu vs kvm !? any ideas !?
[00:32] <DasEi> cryptic: hard, but might look :
[00:32] <oCean_> Guest8485: I really have no clue as to the capabilities of that router. But if you get a denied error, even before it connects, the cause has to be somewhere 'before' the sshd. So you did change back to port 22 and restarted sshd-server, right?
[00:32] <DasEi>  !recovery
[00:33] <twolane> jasballa: ssh = secure shell scp = secure copy, ftp is another animal. you need to use whatever your needs require. ftp requires configuration
[00:33] <genii> If only it were so simple, poor ubotu
[00:34] <jasballa> twolane: ill give that a shot
[00:34] <jasballa> twolane: do you know why vsftpd doesn't have a gui?
[00:35] <cryptic> i ran this thinking it will delete everything from my exteral rm /mnt/external/grandma/docs/ *
[00:35] <Guest8485> are there any other ssh clients for windows i can use
[00:35] <dr_willis> The client wont matter.. if the 2 cant connect
[00:35] <SlonUA> Guest8485: cigwin
[00:35] <oCean_> cryptic: err
[00:35] <jasballa> twolane: im installing openssh-server now
[00:35] <xnt> Does anyone know how stable jaunty is? I don't mind a occasional crash, but is x, or gnome crashes every 15 minutes than Ill consider Intrepid.
[00:35] <jasballa> twolane: you know if twolane has encryption / can get around firewalls?
[00:35] <cryptic> oCean_: what ?
[00:36] <taz_> error (camorama)  could not connnect to video device (/dev/video0)  please check conection.....
[00:36] <taz_> please help me thanks
[00:36] <sumi> hi
[00:36] <oCean_> cryptic: actually rm takes a list of files to remove. Like "rm file1 file2" would remove file1 and file2. Your command would try to remove the directory ..grandma/docs and then every file (*) in your current working directory
[00:36] <LordQuackstar> hey everyone, got a problem here. I'm a linux newbie and when i ran the updater,  linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic and system-tools-backends failed to install, and is throwing errors everytime i try to run almost anything. Google only gave me people with the same problem. Is their an easy way to fix this?
[00:36] <holyscott> Question, should the 9.04 beta still be out tomorrow?
[00:36] <cryptic> yea
[00:36] <cryptic> it did that oCean_
[00:37] <twolane> jasballa: ftp runs in a chroot jail making your system files invisable to logins, ssh won't. ftp is not encrypted, sftp is, ssh is.
[00:37] <cryptic> oCean_: trying to find a way to get it back
[00:37] <bluenzo> is it hard to install vista on virtualbox?
[00:37] <bogdan_> can i make with slax live cd a dual boot for xp and f10 because the f!W@!# xp had delete the boot
[00:37] <cyphermox> xnt: it depends on hardware. I'm on an aspire one on lpia architecture, it's pretty stable but i had to do some work to get X to start. On the other hand, i've been running it on a dell hybrid for two months, very stable. ymmv
[00:37] <dr_willis> bluenzo:  shouldent be
[00:37] <oCean_> cryptic: well, ubottu send you some suggestions, those are the best options you got. (and even those are hard)
[00:38] <jasballa> bluenzo: I've tried installing Win 7 beta, use vmware instead of virtual box
[00:38] <jasballa> twolane: gr8.
[00:38] <bluenzo> does vmware cost $$?
[00:38] <georgy_28> bluenzo, : even hard to install vista on a computer ;)
[00:38] <B419kid> jasballa: where did u get a copy of windows 7 beta
[00:38] <xnt> cyphermox: so the base system is stable, so I can muck around in the cli without a kernel panic?
[00:38] <RickZilla> Is Apr 26 the release date for Jaunty?
[00:39] <bluenzo> i get an error "Attempting to load a 64-bit application, however this CPU is not compatible with 64-bit mode."
[00:39] <jasballa> B419kid: I downloaded it from the Microsoft Website when it was live
[00:39] <bluenzo> while trying to install vista lol
[00:39] <jasballa> twolane: using firestarter it says I can't have internet and sharing the same device?
[00:39] <B419kid> jasballa: still can or no?
[00:39] <jasballa> B419kid: you can't from Msoft but from torrents yes
[00:39] <cyphermox> xnt: i'd say so, if you're running i386. like i said, no issues for me, on different hardware.
[00:41] <holyscott> what time of day should beta be out tomorrow?
[00:41] <jasballa> B419kid: you can get a liscence trial at Microsoft still
[00:41] <twolane> jasballa: thats been your whole problem. you had firestarter setup?
[00:41] <cyphermox> xnt: and it's not only cli, X too, with compiz and everything
[00:41] <xnt> cyphermox; thanks :)
[00:41] <B419kid> jasballa: how mch?
[00:41] <xnt> :) :)
[00:41] <jasballa> twolane: I never had firestarter until right now.
[00:41]  * xnt is switching to jaunty on his eee and laptop :)
[00:41] <jasballa> B419kid: its free, torrents are free too. The liscence closes in August 2009 and then you'll have to buy the box
[00:41] <oCean_> RickZilla: 23rd actually: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyReleaseSchedule
[00:41] <DasEi>  ! undelete | cryptic: (sorry, wrong trigger above)
[00:41] <jasballa> anyone have mac leopard running in vmware? I'm working on it tonight. Apple says its ok
[00:41] <jasballa> twolane: how to fix?
[00:41] <twolane> jasballa: are you behind a router?
[00:41] <B419kid> well afte ri apply for the trial does it download an iso or something?
[00:41] <jasballa> twolane: prolly yes, as always
[00:41] <LordQuackstar> anyone?
[00:41] <twolane> jasballa: I never used firestarter, cant be too hard.
[00:41] <jasballa> twolane: wireless university network at campus right now
[00:41] <jasballa> twolane: it is gui
[00:42] <bluenzo> im so used to windows im confused about "Computer" in ubuntu, i have 4 HDDs (Windows 7, Backup, 40GB (no name), 40GB (no name)), which one is the drive where ubuntu is location?
[00:42] <xnt> jasballa: in vmware on ubuntu? I heard that apple would let parallels virtualize osx server
[00:42] <xnt> on osx only
[00:42] <twolane> jasballa: your service ports will be blocked forget it
[00:42] <xnt> i think :P
[00:42] <jasballa> xnt: yes download vmware at their homepage and they will issue a trial liscence and download the bundle if you're running debian and then terminal/"sh vmware...bundle"
[00:42] <twolane> jasballa: use really high ports, you might get around them
[00:42] <B419kid> jasballa: u there?
[00:43] <chriszf> Crazy question: I have an install iso. I don't have an external cd or any thumb drives on me, but I have a usb hard drive. Can I somehow write the iso to the hard drive in a way that's bootable?
[00:43] <jasballa> twolane:ok
[00:43] <jasballa> B419kid: yah
[00:43] <twolane> jasballa: put your ftp.conf to port 48000 or something
[00:43] <jasballa> twolane: ok
[00:43] <B419kid> jasballa: does it give an iso or someting or how install?
[00:43] <funkyHat> chriszf: yes, following a tutorial for a USB memory stick will also work for a USB hard drive
[00:43] <twolane> jasballa: you must config ssh or ftp to use the correct port you know
[00:44] <chriszf> funkyHat: I'm bummed you said that. I tried using unetbootin to do it, and it did not work.
[00:44] <xnt> jasballa: I already have vmware server installed on my xps, so does that mean I can install osx out of the box?
[00:44] <B419kid> jasbala: it says beta is up
[00:44] <jasballa> twolane: right now open port is supposedly 22 i think
[00:45] <jasballa> b419kid: newb google
[00:45] <B419kid> jasbala: wow u told me microsoft.com
[00:45] <jasballa> xnt: no, you have to find the iso of mac or windows  that run --x86--
[00:46] <jasballa> B419kid: goto thepiratebay liscences can be acquired at microsoft tech
[00:46] <funkyHat> chriszf: try usb-creator
[00:46] <wubi_pain> Anyone here that can help me with some Wubi issues?
[00:46] <B419kid> kk
[00:46] <genii> !piracy
[00:46] <jasballa> ~~confused~~
[00:47] <jasballa> twolane: where was I? so ssh can't get around firewalls except in open ports too?
[00:47] <bluenzo> you know the disk utility in ubuntu installer, where is that in ubuntu after installed?
[00:47] <xnt> jasbella: ok :) thanks
[00:47] <jasballa> developers needed for Ubuntu Linux Buddhist Distro http://buddhabuntu.8m.net
[00:48] <chriszf> Is there a superlight ubuntu distribution?
[00:48] <chriszf> xubuntu is okay, but still a bit hefty for the 1.6 atom processors.
[00:48] <jasballa> twolane: i think that firewall wizard just started a firewall
[00:48] <eraldo> I want to install the drivers for my Canon MP610 printer... I found this blog: http://mp610.blogspot.com and there are comments from amd64 users who managed to make it work... but I get an error trying to install the 32bit .deb files!
[00:49] <georgy_28> chriszf, : crunchbang linux, easypeasy or ubuntueee
[00:49] <oCean_> jasballa: #ubuntu-offtopic might be more appropriate to ask developers to join you
[00:49] <chriszf> georgy: Easypeasy and ubuntueee are surprisingly horrible.
[00:49] <dr_willis> chriszf:  i was thinking that myself.. :)
[00:49] <chriszf> Well, I take that back.
[00:49] <George2> how do i find out a pid from a process name?
[00:49] <eraldo> I did also use --force-architecture but it still tells me that the architecture is not matching
[00:49] <chriszf> they're not super terrible, but they sure perform poorly on the original eee.
[00:49] <eraldo> what can I do in this case?
[00:49] <jasballa> is twolanes still here or did they do a moderator switch?
[00:50] <Blah78> Hi, maybe someone can help me out. ALSA won't work under X. When running from command line it works just fine, but after entering X it will stop working. amixer shows this error: amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device
[00:50] <scribawf> Will GDEBi work on DreamLinux v3.5 and how difficult is it to install
[00:50] <funkyHat> George2: pgrep -l
[00:50] <chriszf> Oh man. Crunchbang looks awesome.
[00:50] <lesterc> guys - is there a equivalent command as `sfdisk -d /dev/sda | sfdisk /dev/sdb` that works for GPT?
[00:50] <jasballa> is anybody a master at french i have french quia online to do and a test tommrw
[00:50] <funkyHat> George2: or if you want to kill it, just pkill
[00:50] <George2> perfect - thanks funkyHat
[00:50] <jasballa> looking for help now with proftpd and gproftpd or ssh
[00:50] <George2> oh, even better
[00:51] <oCean_> George2: "pidof <commandname>"
[00:51] <genii> scribawf: Since this isn't the dreamlinux support channel, you may not get an immediate answer to that
[00:51] <georgy_28> chriszf, : yeah, it's the lxde desktop
[00:51] <usser> chriszf, just assemble your own distribution from packages, why be at a mercy of someone else? its not that hard anyway
[00:51] <George2> thanks guys, pkill did the trick
[00:51] <centHOGG> hi, can't seem to get my system sounds working, but audio works fine.. thx for help :)
[00:51] <scribawf> genii; OK didn't think that would go over well or maybe there's DL forum around?
[00:51] <chriszf> usser: That's kind of crazy talk. I'm not interested in sorting through every single package available and making sure all the functionality is exposed easily.
[00:52] <skate2> when i go to http://localhost/foo/bar.php it only works right if im signed onto the internet. i want to be able to develop files both locally and while offline though. why isn't ubuntu/apache lettingme?
[00:52] <eraldo> I want to install the drivers for my Canon MP610 printer... I found this blog: http://mp610.blogspot.com and there are comments from amd64 users who managed to make it work... but I get an error trying to install the 32bit .deb files!
[00:52] <chriszf> usser: this is ubuntu, not debian.
[00:52] <eraldo> I did also use --force-architecture but it still tells me that the architecture is not matching
[00:52] <usser> chriszf, yea i guess you're right, im just out of touch with what people want :)
[00:53] <chriszf> Like, when I was young and had nothing better to do, that was totally valid.
[00:53] <genii> scribawf: #dream-linux
[00:53] <chriszf> Also, back when linux was incredibly terrible.
[00:53] <eraldo> what does http://eraserhead.net/files/cnijfilter-amd64-install.sh do?

[00:55]  * roffle wishes he did
[00:55] <eraldo> usser: could you please help me?
[00:55] <usser> eraldo, it installs some sort of canon proprietary printer language to postscript converter
[00:55] <usser> eraldo, whats the model?
[00:55] <eraldo> usser: MP610
[00:55] <dr_willis> infomomo:  dia i recall can do that.. I also recall seeing some *(not in the repos)* that could automate it. but they were supported in linux via wine. so i dident test them much
[00:56] <eraldo> usser: I want to install the drivers for my Canon MP610 printer... I found this blog: http://mp610.blogspot.com and there are comments from amd64 users who managed to make it work... but I get an error trying to install the 32bit .deb files!

[00:56] <cyphermox> infomomo: in my experience, Dia rocks. it even already comes with the logical symbols from Cisco
[00:56] <B419kid> Anyone here good with themes for ubuntu, i had alot of problems :)
[00:56] <dr_willis> B419kid:   Gnome has themes.. :)
[00:57] <eraldo> usser: thank's for trying to help me :)
[00:57] <jasballa> anyone want to help me troubleshoot my ftp host
[00:57] <infomomo> cyphermox: thnaks
[00:57] <usser> eraldo, there are drivers for linux for canon printers, for some reason only on their european site, hang on let me try to find it'
[00:57] <iceroot> infomomo: for linux dia is ok but if i am honest, there is only one real good application for diagrams... and this is microsoft visio :(
[00:57] <cyphermox> i really like the NewWave theme in jaunty :)
[00:57] <B419kid> dr_willis: the pkg i downloaded needed some engine to worka dn i dint know how to install that engine
[00:57] <infomomo> iceroot: i know, but i am on ubuntu for a while
[00:57] <jasballa> did they do a moderator rounds switch?
[00:57] <corinth> How to I use chmod to change the permissions of an entire directory to myself?
[00:57] <iceroot> infomomo: visio runs fine with wine
[00:58] <iceroot> corinth: chmod -R
[00:58] <jasballa> corinth "sudo chmod your_username:your_username directory/*"
[00:58] <dr_willis> B419kid:  look at the gnome-look.org site for it perhaps? theres some tools that help automage getting theme parts from that site also,
[00:58] <iceroot> jasballa: you mean chown
[00:58] <dr_willis> B419kid:  check out 'gnome-artng' i think is the name of the tool
[00:58] <B419kid> kk
[00:58] <jasballa> corinth: "sudo chown your_usrname:your_usrname directory/*"
[00:58] <UnderTaker> Does a better a GPU help with flash?

[01:03] <jasballza> would someone like to port an excel vbscript to java for me?
[01:04] <jasballza> its an nlp neural net only 60 lines of code
[01:04] <usser> eraldo, how about with sudo dpkg -i --force all cnijfilter-common_2.80-1_i386.deb
[01:04] <sluxor> Is there a single command to install every single package in the repositories?
[01:04] <sluxor> like apt-get install world
[01:04] <jasballza> cypermox: hmm, can it work behind firewalls and how to set up for hosting files
[01:04] <sluxor> lol
[01:04] <dave-ubuntu> i dont think anyone would
[01:04] <iceroot> sluxor: yes but you dont want this
[01:04] <sluxor> yes i do! what is it?
[01:04] <roscoe> dude i love unbuntu
[01:04] <usser> sluxor, you dont want to do that, 50gb of packages etc
[01:04] <jasballza> itd be gr8 if we could use my nlp neural net instea of dumb ubott
[01:04] <sluxor> I have a machine with a 160GB hard drive for play play
[01:04] <iceroot> sluxor: this will break your system
[01:04] <sluxor> I want it
[01:04] <usser> jasballza, neural networks are overrated
[01:04] <jasballza> plus I need the port for my distro of Ubuntu// Buddhabuntu.8m.net
[01:05] <opera> ！rss feed
[01:05] <sluxor> I dont care. it's for amusing purposes
[01:05] <opera> !rss feed
[01:05] <iceroot> sluxor: i dont post the whoe command, just use * for paketname
[01:05] <iceroot> whole
[01:05] <jasballza> usser: ha ha, maybe so, thats why I also do kabbalah. Hoping YHWH will animate my nets
[01:05] <docid> sluxor, poor thought, but i admire that you considered it, lol
[01:05] <eraldo> usser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/137897/
[01:05] <sluxor> really? :|  you can use * in apt commands?
[01:05] <iceroot> sluxor: yes
[01:06] <jrib> sluxor: it's impossible to install every package since some conflict with one another...
[01:06] <usser> eraldo, it installed, overriding the arch mismatch
[01:06] <iceroot> sluxor: sudo apt-get install texlive* will install all programs, startet wird texlive
[01:06] <dr_willis> sluxor:  you may need to quote them to keep the shell from using the wildcards
[01:06] <iceroot> sluxor: but using only * break your system
[01:06] <usser> eraldo, if you're following some sort of guide, continue because that step succeeded
[01:07] <sluxor> jrib, I know that.
[01:07] <eraldo> usser: ohhh :) thank you!
[01:07] <cyphermox> jasballza: standard FTP and firewalls is special. You need to open a few ports if you want it to work. for Passive FTP, this will be ports 20 and 21, for active FTP, it will be 21, and >1024. here is a good page about the difference and which ports you'll need through a firewall: http://slacksite.com/other/ftp.html
[01:07] <docid> anybody know how i can merge multiple timestamped log files into a single log sorted by the timestamp?
[01:07] <sluxor> I was an rpm user before i moved onto debian and ubuntu
[01:07] <sluxor> lol
[01:07] <jrib> sluxor: then such a command cannot exist...
[01:07] <eraldo> usser: I was struggling for 2 days now *sigh*
[01:07] <jasballza> cyphermox: thanks
[01:07] <jasballza> cyphermox: dang thats a lot of reading...lol
[01:08] <usser> eraldo, well technically now what you have to do is add the printer by usual means by going to localhost:631 in the browser
[01:08] <jasballza> cyphermox: if i just type in ftp.buddhabuntu.org does that make it live?
[01:08] <afallenhope> Hey I keep getting disconnect from wireless. I checked dmesg and this pops up.. any ideas on how to fix it? http://pastebin.com/d5ca5a2cc
[01:08] <jasballza> who knows how to port vb macros into openoffice?
[01:08] <dave-ubuntu> can anyone help me with this problem>>>>>>>>> http://img91.imageshack.us/img91/604/screenshotgpaerror.png ?
[01:08] <dave-ubuntu> it happens when launching gpa
[01:08] <usser> eraldo, your model should appear in the list now, add it and try printing the test page. if it fails pastebin the /var/log/cups/error_log
[01:09] <cyphermox> jasballza : depends on your client, as well as other config.
[01:09] <jasballza> i could probably strip the macro of excel with an array function in java but I've never programmed in java b4 so a porter would be nice
[01:09] <jasballza> cyphermox: what do you mean?
[01:09] <bartek> Hi there, if I want to use the dev/alpha versions of Firefox which repo should I be fetching from? I would like to use the new 3.1/3.5 alphas or whatever is out so far
[01:09] <usser> eraldo, i remember my driver depended on some ancient versions of libpng, so i had to create symlinks so it would know where to find the libraries
[01:09] <cyphermox> jasballza : on the command line for example, you'd normally want to use the "PASV" command to switch to passive mode
[01:09] <oCean_> sluxor: it is possible to mirror entire repositories. You gonna need a more than decent internettube, but then you can play all you want
[01:10] <eraldo> usser: okay...I'll try and find out
[01:10] <IcE-M> hi all, anyone from czech republic ?
[01:10] <jasballza> cyphermox: say...terminal/ "PASV" or "FTP PASV"?
[01:10] <cyphermox> jasballza: no
[01:10] <eraldo> usser: the guide suggests adding a little fix > http://mp610.blogspot.com/2008/01/borderless-linux-printing-on-pixma-now.html?showComment=1211287980000#c7491122727719049557
[01:11] <jasballza> anyone into neural nets here cuz I need a macro port
[01:11] <cyphermox> jasballza: what exactly what do you want to do?
[01:11] <eraldo> usser: however I am not sure what to do exactly since the is no code line and my linux knowledge is limited
[01:11] <cyphermox> jasballza: logging in to the ftp server, or configuring proftpd?
[01:11] <iceroot> jasballza: you have not understand the text with anyone?
[01:11] <jasballza> cyphermox: Basically bring my buddhabuntu files on line thru ftp file hosting with proftpd
[01:11] <eraldo> usser: or even understanding of the english language :|
[01:11] <usser> eraldo, you'll need to install all ia32 packages from repositories
[01:11] <eraldo> usser: that I have
[01:12] <eraldo> usser: but the part about making the link
[01:12] <jasballza> cyphermox: let me give "ftp localhost" a shot
[01:12] <cyphermox> jasballza: so ftp.buddhabuntu.org already exists and is empty right now?
[01:12] <eraldo> usser: is what I am unsure about
[01:12] <usser> eraldo, and then basically create a shortcut: cd /usr/lib64/cups/filter
[01:12] <jasballza> cyphermox: it says 500 oops: vsftpd: not found: I'm trying to --make-- ftp.buddhabuntu.org and I have no idea how I'm a newb at filehosting / ubuntu ftp
[01:12] <eraldo> usser: quote "setting a link from the /usr/lib64/... file to /usr/lib/..."
[01:12] <jasballza> whooooooooo would like to port an excel macro to java?
[01:13] <usser> eraldo, and then sudo ln -s /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij
[01:13] <cyphermox> jasballza: is proftpd installed or vsftpd?
[01:13] <jasballza> it holds promise of first conscious computer program lol
[01:13] <jasballza> cyphermox: i had vsftpd installed and now i installed proftpd since i tried vsftpd all day so thats why the oops is weird
[01:14] <jasballza> cyphermox: it says connected and then oops
[01:14] <usser> eraldo, but your case may be different, dont just blindly follow the guide it may be wrong, its good for hints and such but first source of info should be your cups error_log
[01:14] <eraldo> usser: error > ln: creating symbolic link `./pstocanonij': File exists
[01:14] <cyphermox> jasballza: ok hold on a second
[01:14] <jasballza> all you who would not deign to participate in nlp neural net port i found a vba to openoffice converter so shooey
[01:14] <jasballza> too bad for y'alls
[01:15] <jasballza> Does OpenOffice run macros?
[01:15] <El_Guille2> java macros i think
[01:15] <usser> eraldo, it must be there already. pastebin the results of ls -al /usr/lib64/cups/filter
[01:15] <jasballza> cyphermox: I got it
[01:15] <jasballza> i hope the java porter will work ill have to try it another day
[01:15] <cyphermox> jasballza: vsftpd still running, so proftpd wasn't started?
[01:15] <jasballza> any francais parler here? I need some hmwk done
[01:16] <georgy_28> ! fr

[01:16] <jj_galvez> I'm having issues with window focus that gets fixed when I log out and back in, can someone help me figure out how I might trouble shoot this?
[01:16] <jasballza> cyphermox: idk I opened the gui for proftpd and clicked activate
[01:16] <jasballza> cyphermox: but it says status: deactivtated
[01:16] <cyphermox> jasballza: yeah, sounds about right.
[01:17] <usser> eraldo, yep the file that he talks about missing in his case is already there
[01:18] <slerder> Hey guys does anyone know if its possible to have multiple partitions on a external usb hdd, and on one of those partitions have a truecrypt installation of windows? thanks
[01:18] <holyscott> is there a channel for beta 9.04 talk?

[01:18] <holyscott> I think
[01:18] <RickX> I have a problem with pyNeighboorhood. When I connect to machines with the same username and password, I can read/write/create/delete. On a machine with a different username, I have only read permissions. Anyone have an ideas what might be wrong.
[01:18] <scream> Do we know what time UTC?
[01:19] <cyphermox> jasballza: you'll want to configure proftpd, and in the configuration files, you'll see the PassivePorts directive, where you can setup which ports to use for passive FTP, which is also what you'll want to open in firewall
[01:19] <Anonymorse> here goes...

[01:19] <wanna_learn_more> there is any hostapd for ubuntu>
[01:19] <jasballza> who wants a bot with a brain?  I DO! lol
[01:19] <cyphermox> jasballza: it is still deactivated
[01:19] <usser> eraldo, i'd just dump canon altogether and bought some cheap hp printer, canon linux support sucks
[01:20] <jasballza> anyone in charge of this want to give ubott an neural net I have one for java port if interested
[01:20] <jasballza> cyphermox: yeah i no
[01:20] <scream> What is the channel for Ubuntu Jaunty talk again?
[01:20] <cyphermox> jasballza: try
[01:20] <jasballza> cyphermox: Im a newb
[01:20] <qah661> I forgot how, but how do I make ubuntu compatible with Windows time?
[01:20] <cyphermox> jasballza: try to deactivate vsftpd, if you can see it
[01:20] <qah661> I think you have to diable UTC or something
[01:20] <georgy_28> scream, : #ubuntu+1
[01:20] <scream> thank you
[01:20] <cyphermox> jasballza: maybe that is why proftpd still stays deactivated
[01:21] <jasballza> scream: IDK but I do know that I'm running Jaunty
[01:21] <jasballza> qah661: I use live server update
[01:21] <jasballza> cyphermox: how do you do that?
[01:21] <scream> jasballa, I'm testing Jaunty... I don't know how else to contribute. :)
[01:21] <qah661> jasballza: I know you can update the time, but how do I diable UTC time in ubuntu with command line?
[01:21] <cyphermox> jasballza: can you see vsftpd around the same place you click to activate proftpd?
[01:22] <jasballza> cyphermox: most likely do I kill the process or something?
[01:22] <jasballza> cyphermox: idon't think so
[01:22] <jasballza> qah661: I wouldn't know, sorry
[01:22] <qah661> ok thanks anyways
[01:22] <qah661> I have one more question
[01:22] <eraldo> usser: that I did not know beforehand
[01:22] <qah661> I am using Ubuntu server edition
[01:22] <eraldo> usser: < new to linux
[01:22] <qah661> Is there a way of switching and using multiple terminals?
[01:22] <jasballza> scream: you can help develop the Ubuntu Buddhist Edition of Jaunty at buddhabuntu.8m.net ;)
[01:23] <eraldo> usser: the printer is listed in the web interface ...but with a different name
[01:23] <usser> eraldo, i did setup my canon printer but it was still flaky no network shared printing only usb, scanning didnt work etc
[01:23] <jasballza> cyphermox: i have a virtual network editor maybe thats it?
[01:23] <usser> eraldo, what name is there?
[01:23] <eraldo> usser: to be more precise... with several names
[01:23] <cyphermox> jasballza: maybe? i don't know what that is
[01:23] <usser> eraldo, what are they exactly?
[01:23] <jasballza> uh....... try <IP_ADDRESS> ? or <IP_ADDRESS> ? i dk
[01:23] <oCean_> jasballza: As I pointed out earlier, the development issue is not on topic here
[01:24] <usser> eraldo, you generally need something postscript if its there at all

[01:24] <jasballza> oCean_: cool beans
[01:24] <dave-ubuntu> jesus christ
[01:24] <jasballza> oCean_: he asked I answerd
[01:24] <dave-ubuntu> 2 hours and you cant even answer....
[01:24] <eraldo> usser: according to the guide it should say "USB printer #1 with status readback for canon ij (Canon MP610 series)"
[01:25] <cyphermox> dave-ubuntu: i'd gladly help but i'm not familiar with GPA
[01:25] <eqisow2> I havenm't been here the whole time, but I imagine nobody *wants* to help you dave-ubuntu
[01:25] <jasballza> cyphermox: i don't think its that because thats vmnet w/e that is
[01:25] <eqisow2> correction, apaprently cyphermox does :p
[01:25] <usser> eraldo, and what does it say?
[01:26] <cyphermox> :P
[01:26] <opera> who can give me a source of liferea feed
[01:26] <oCean_> dave-ubuntu: mind your language in this channel, please
[01:26] <cyphermox> jasballza: vmnet interfaces should not matter
[01:26] <jasballza> cyphermox: looks like it uninstalled vsftpd
[01:26] <cyphermox> jasballza: just did?
[01:27] <jasballza> cyphermox: i ran "sudo proftpd" to start it
[01:27] <jasballza> cyphermox: uhh, yah, tho I had the gui running this whole time
[01:27] <PodeCoet> Anyone have a really annoying issue with SAMBA, in which the speed during copies is terribly inaccurate? Ie: Sending a 350mb file over to an SMB share, says 50MB/sec, flies through, then hangs at 99% for about 30 seconds
[01:28] <cyphermox> jasballza: i guess that's pretty good. vsftpd definitely needs to be disabled and uninstalled before you should install or use proftpd
[01:28] <eqisow2> PodeCoet: No, I haven't seen that
[01:28] <jasballza> who knows how to make a KDE AMOR theme?
[01:28] <eraldo> usser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/137902/
[01:28] <sprinkmeier> jasballa, services normally install a startup script. try "sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd start"
[01:28] <cyphermox> dave-ubuntu: what leads to that GPGME/GPA error? what were you trying to achieve?
[01:28] <PodeCoet> eqisow2: :(
[01:29] <eqisow2> PodeCoet: are you interacting with a windows machine or another linux machine?
[01:29] <jasballza> cyphermox: its def uninstalled cuz I tried running it and it told me to apt-get
[01:29] <PodeCoet> eqisow2: another Ubuntu box
[01:29] <usser> eraldo, right so pick the one that the guide says works, its there as far as i can tell right?
[01:29] <eqisow2> PodeCoet: then maybe you could try NFS?
[01:30] <eraldo> usser: but it is there twice once with #1 and once with #2
[01:30] <PodeCoet> eqisow2: that ubuntu box is accessed by other windows boxes :p
[01:30] <usser> eraldo, pick he first one
[01:30] <cyphermox> jasballza: like sprinkmeier said, if you do "sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd start", what does it say?
[01:30] <jasballza> cyphermox: heres' output of $proftpd:
[01:30] <jasballza> cyphermox:  - notice: unable to bind to Unix domain socket at '/var/run/proftpd/test.sock': Permission denied

[01:30] <FloodBot1> jasballza: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:30] <eqisow2> PodeCoet: gotcha, so do you see the same error whether it's windows/ubuntu or ubuntu/ubuntu?
[01:30] <sprinkmeier> !paste | cyphermox
[01:30] <cyphermox> ah, woops :)
[01:31] <PodeCoet> eqisow2: Strangely enough, I haven't tried that yet! I'll give it a shot right now
[01:31] <sprinkmeier> jasballa, (oops, the pastebin thing was menat for you :-) looke like it's trying to run without root. did you sudo?
[01:31] <jasballza> FLoodBot1: thank you for notification. Please get a neural net that I devvd
[01:32] <jasballza> cyphermox: ok, output is "* Starting ftp server proftpd [ OK ]"
[01:32] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, looks good. try the client now.
[01:32] <cyphermox> jasballza: that's good. now if you try "ftp localhost" it should ask for a username and password
[01:32] <jasballza> cyphermox: then it gives me the same err when I try ftp localhost
[01:33] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, do you have an FTP proxy set?
[01:33] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, on a terminal, try "env -i ftp localhost" that should get rid of the ftp_proxy env var which is your FTP proxy
[01:33] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: pretty sure, NO, how do I do that?
[01:33] <RassBariaw> newbie question
[01:33] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: got it
[01:34] <eraldo> usser: I am asked for username and password by the webinterface
[01:34] <RassBariaw> I just downloaded Ubuntu 8.10 and I plan on installing it on a 64 bit Vista machine
[01:34] <wubi_pain> Can anyone help me fix a problem with the boot.ini file under Wubi?
[01:34] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: ran that command as root and nonroot and here's output Connected to localhost.
[01:34] <usser> eraldo, its your regular username and password
[01:34] <jasballza> 500 OOPS: vsftpd: not found: directory given in 'secure_chroot_dir':/var/run/vsftpd
[01:34] <RassBariaw> do I just insert the cd and install like any software?
[01:34] <eqisow2> RassBariaw: please put your questions all on one line
[01:34] <eraldo> usser: Error: Bad device-uri "cnij_usb:/dev/usb/lp0"!
[01:35] <eqisow2> rassBariaw: You will need to put in the CD, then reboot your computer and run from the CD
[01:35] <cyphermox> vsftpd is still running
[01:35] <Jeruvy> !wubi > RassBariaw also see !install
[01:35] <usser> eraldo, is it connected through the usb?
[01:35] <jasballza> RassBariaw: to install Ubuntu boot onto livecd and install or install in WinXp. Wont install in Win Vista or 7 unless you boot from CD
[01:35] <eraldo> usser: yes
[01:35] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, the "env -i" thing does not need to run as root. "Connected to localhost" sounds like it's working. The 500 error means the FTP server is misconfigured, looks like some vfstp stuff is still lying around.
[01:35] <jasballza> cyphermox: Im guessing that for somereason vsftpd is still default somewhere
[01:35] <eqisow2> RassBariaw: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall
[01:35] <chronic_> is there a plugin that can decode m2ts on linux?
[01:36] <usser> eraldo, what does ls -al /dev/usb say?
[01:36] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: yah, I guessed the same. I wonder how to clean that trash up?
[01:36] <georgy_28> eraldo, : or lsusb
[01:36] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, run "sudo netstat -lntp" and pastebin the output. It should list and name all listening processes, I suspect port 21 still belongs to vsftp
[01:37] <eraldo> usser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/137908/
[01:37] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: got it
[01:37] <eraldo> usser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/137909/
[01:38] <tomy_> ytuy6uytu
[01:38] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: how to paste bin?  looks like you're right Ive got 6989/vsftpd tho I do have 8030/sshd no proftpd
[01:38] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: how to fix?
[01:39] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, "sudo kill -9 6989" then "sudo .... start" again. that should kill vsftpd and start proftpd. re-run netsta to confirm 21 now belongs to proftpd
[01:39] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: got it
[01:39] <sprinkmeier> !paste |  jasballza,
[01:39] <BadHorsie> hi, what is the command line for that program that tests sound cards, display, etc?
[01:40] <georgy_28> jasballa, : and to remove sudo apt-get remove --purge vsftpd
[01:40] <beejay7777> hi
[01:40] <beejay7777> after todays update of x my compiz do ot start
[01:40] <usser> eraldo, are you a member of lp group?
[01:40] <beejay7777> what to do/
[01:40] <beejay7777> ?
[01:40] <eraldo> usser: no idea
[01:40] <PodeCoet> eqisow2: Interesting! It works fine one window UNLESS you mount the shares in FSTAB (like I did with the ubuntu shares)
[01:40] <usser> eraldo, type groups on the terminal, does lp show up somewhere there?
[01:40] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, FWIW the ":::*" entries are IPv6
[01:40] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: good  I got 15739/proftpd now
[01:41] <PodeCoet> eqisow2: caching problem perhaps?
[01:41] <eraldo> usser: eraldo adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev fuse lpadmin admin sambashare
[01:41] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, see georgy_28 for instructions on eradicating vsftp, try the client again, any luck?
[01:41] <usser> eraldo, lp isnt there
[01:41] <jasballza> infobot: what the hell does FWIW mean?
[01:41] <eqisow2> PodeCoet: So it only does it when mounted via fstab, eh? paste your ftsab?
[01:41] <eraldo> usser: but lpadmin is
[01:41] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: yeas.
[01:41] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: gr8 luck
[01:41] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: im good tho now working on establishing host
[01:41] <beejay7777> any idea?
[01:42] <usser> eraldo, well device is owned by root:lp so lpadmin doesnt matter
[01:42] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: gui says Status:Activated
[01:42] <RassBariaw> thank you for your answers; I will return after carefully reading them. good evening
[01:42] <jasballza> sprinmeier: so supposedly you could go to ftp.buddhabuntu.org ??
[01:42] <usser> eraldo, try this sudo usermod -a -G lp $USERNAME
[01:42] <usser> eraldo, log out/log back in for changes to take effect and try again
[01:42] <eraldo> usser: nothing
[01:43] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, make sure vsftp is gone and that proftp auto-starts (a simple reboot is the best way to confirm that)
[01:43] <jasballza> how to establish ftp host with proftpd  i have active satus
[01:43] <ndshacker> hello there, how can i make a script to change my workspaces?
[01:43] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: ill make sure to have a session-unique command anyway how to get it autostart in KDE? I run gnome rite now
[01:43] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, the server should start at boot-time, it has nothing to do with KDE/gnome.
[01:44] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: so if I mod the GNOME system/startup apps itll change it in KDE? cuz thats done
[01:44] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: mind troubleshooting the connection? try connect to ftp.buddhabuntu.8m.net
[01:44] <jasballza> *.org*
[01:44] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, "ftp.buddhabuntu.org" does not resolve for me, even if it did chances are you'd have to configure your gateway to allow external access for FTP (which is a _really_ bad idea!)
[01:45] <PodeCoet> eqisow2: Correct: http://pastebin.com/m62fb8f99
[01:45] <PodeCoet> eqisow2: loungeroom is the one I just added (windows box)
[01:46] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, gnome and KDE are windows managers. They'll automatically start user apps when users log on. SYSV (or these days, upstart) starts daemons (services). it's totally independant of KDE/gnome
[01:46] <eternally> i'm trying to install GNUworld on ubuntu, and I get a whole page of errors from 'pgsqlDB.cc'. 'blah blah was not declared in this scope'. anyone know how I can correct this problem?
[01:46] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: why bad idea and how would i do that?
[01:46] <PodeCoet> eqisow2: and also I just added 'forceddirectio', didnt work
[01:46] <ndshacker> hello there, how can i make a script to change my workspaces?
[01:46] <eqisow2> PodeCoet: just tne?o clarify, is it all of them or just the new o
[01:46] <eraldo> usser: my printer is alreadt in the list under "printers" tab but with my old settings
[01:46] <eraldo> usser: may this cause trouble?
[01:47] <unitedpotsmokers> hello guys, good morning, what software to monitor cpu & hdd temp?
[01:47] <PodeCoet> eqisow2: all mounted samba shares do it (thought I'd just tell you which one is the windows box for clarity)
[01:47] <dr_willis> ndshacker:  the people in #gnome may have an idea.  It may require some  effort
[01:47] <unitedpotsmokers> hello guys, good morning, what software to monitor cpu & hdd temp? im using hardy heron
[01:47] <NetEcho> Anyone know of any online resources to help with installing VirtualBox Guest Additions in the latest Ubuntu?
[01:47] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, ftp://ftp.buddhabuntu.8m.net gives an error 530, non anonymous login. It's a bad idea as, based on your questions, I doubt you have the experience to run a secure server (I'm sorry if this sounds offensive or snobbish)..
[01:47] <eraldo> usser: at the moment it uses Printer Driver: Canon PIXMA MP610 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.2 Simplified
[01:47] <thief`> hello, i have an easy question...
[01:48] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: it doesn't like i said, ima newb uhhh, say I wanted to make anony users ok
[01:48] <thief`> i have my linux partitions as / for the one partiton and /home for the other... if i want to format and reinst. ubuntu (or mint) if i save my stuff on the /home will the installer wipe the /home partition?
[01:48] <orlando> HI...!
[01:49] <eraldo> usser: do I have to logg out ans in again?
[01:49] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: try user2 as login with pword developers
[01:49] <jasballza> ooooooooohhhhhhhhh im juicing I HAVE A LIVE FTP HOST
[01:49] <prince_j1mmys> thief`: no. just tell your installer to mount your home partition to /home
[01:49] <eternally> *** i'm trying to install GNUworld on ubuntu, and I get a whole page of errors from 'pgsqlDB.cc'. 'blah blah was not declared in this scope'. anyone know how I can correct this problem? ***
[01:49] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, check the proftp.conf file. I'm not familiar with that server so I don't know. Note that FTP is a PITA due to NAT, active/passive clients etc. etc. If you want R/O access consider a web server, if you want R/W access consider sshfs
[01:49] <orlando> MMM... SPANISH???
[01:49] <zacktu> What is the difference between python3 and python3.0 in the repositories for 8.10?
[01:49] <prince_j1mmys> !es | orlando
[01:49] <bluenzo> im having trouble installing opera
[01:49] <georgy_28> jasballa, : open the /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf file, and uncomment the anonymous part if you want anonymous enable
[01:50] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: try Gnome/places/connect to host I no that I got the first good ftp localhost
[01:50] <PerryArmstrong> hey can  anyone tell me the difference between diff and comm commands
[01:50] <georgy_28> jasballa, : then restart your proftpd
[01:51] <eqisow2> PodeCoet: well, general advice, I recomend making a credentials file only readable by root. storing passwords in plaintext is bad. that won't help you hear though... maybe try using the IP instead f the wins name? that's a stab in the dark....
[01:51] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: hmmm, how do I do sshfs?
[01:51] <dr_willis> !info sshfs
[01:52] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: and can you connect with the user login info I gave you?
[01:52] <PodeCoet> eqisow2: thanks for the suggestion, IP didnt work :(
[01:52] <thief`> prince_jammys, it won't overwrite taht stuff that'll already be ont here?
[01:52] <dafydd> Could someone please help me with my mic? I have an AK5370 and Ubuntu utterly refuses to let me use it. Alsa keeps muting it on me
[01:52] <eqisow2> PodeCoet: didn't work at all, or didn't fix it? o.O
[01:52] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, SSHFS pretty much requires clients to be Linux (I'm not aware of non-linux SSHFS clients). it allows file sharing over SSH, so assuming you get SSH set up securely it should be pretty save. Unable to log in as user2/developers
[01:52] <PodeCoet> eqisow2: works exactly the same
[01:53] <PodeCoet> ie: didnt fix
[01:53] <prince_jammys> PerryArmstrong: diff can do much more, and comm only works on sorted files
[01:53] <bluenzo> im having trouble installing opera, whats the proper cmd to install it?
[01:53] <dr_willis> !opera
[01:53] <thief`> opera? firefox! yay.
[01:53] <bluenzo> thanks
[01:53] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: will get on that...idk y this ftp thing is not working when it works for me localhost
[01:53] <PerryArmstrong> prince_jammys; i was working on this unix commands but i never understood the fifference
[01:53] <dr_willis> I just get the oper pacakge from the opera homepage
[01:53] <PerryArmstrong> prince_jammys; i was working on this unix commands but i never understood the difference
[01:54] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: maybe I have given you the wrong address? try my ip?
[01:55] <jasballza> <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:55] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:55]  * genii refrains from running SARA on that ip
[01:55] <prince_jammys> thief`: your home partition should be safe if you tell the installer to mount your home partition to /home, and use the other partition for /
[01:55] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, already got that from IRC :-) as expected, it does not work. probably a gateway problem.
[01:56] <dafydd> Can anyone please help me with getting my mic to enable?
[01:56] <eraldo> usser: what is the problem now exactly?
[01:56] <bluenzo> dr_willis, can you help me download it? I am complete newb. Do I need the tar.gz download? or without
[01:56] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: arggh. how to fix / get around firewall or w/e?
[01:56] <eraldo> usser: *what exactly is the problem now
[01:56] <thief`> when installing though, it said it would wipe the / even if you said not to (in mint installer)  but it'll leave the /home one alone eh?
[01:56] <dr_willis> bluenzo:  last i looked they had a obvious link for debian/ubuntu deb packages.

[01:57] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: how do you get around that garbage?
[01:58] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, FTP and gateways is a pain because of the 2 port thing (one for commands, one for data). just about anything else would be easier. Exactly how to do it depends on the gateway you're using, tough problem to sort out via IRC (i.e. it's much easier on-site). Can you try a local LUG? (would it be redundant to mention the security warning again?)
[01:58] <eqisow2> PodeCoet: well, everything there looks fine. Check your /var/log/samba logs and see if anything looks suspicious
[01:58] <whou> hello
[01:59] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, what problem are you trying to solve? maybe there's an easier way.

[01:59] <bazooka> my empathy messenger doesnt ask for password while i start the program and logs me directly to my account ..how do i make it ask my password ?
[02:00] <Nom-> Hi all... is there a SCSI_DELAY option that's tuneable for Ubuntu?  All the google results i'm seeing are for *BSD systems.  I've got an issue where my server isn't finding /dev/sdc1 on boot up and all my googling seems to turn up is *BSD related posts and changing the SCSI_DELAY kernel option on them
[02:01] <whou> Hello
[02:01] <Elijah> when I run TOP in terminal why does it say 2 users?
[02:01] <sprinkmeier> Nom-, have you looked at hdparm?
[02:02] <LjL> Elijah: because you've got your X session open, plus a terminal
[02:02] <sprinkmeier> Elijah, you and root?
[02:02] <beejay7777> any clue? compiz do not start after update
[02:02] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: I have 8gb of files (Buddhabuntu) that I am trying to enable easy online user access to and torrenting doesnt work due to port forwarding seeding problems
[02:03] <Elijah> LjL: So you mean because I am logged in twice, once for X and one for terminal?
[02:03] <LjL> yes
[02:03] <bazooka> please help me
[02:03] <bazooka> my empathy messenger doesnt ask for password while i start the program and logs me directly to my account ..how do i make it ask my password ?
[02:03] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, read-only access? in that case I'd recommend a web server (apache). much easier to get through a gateway (only 1 port, no need for application proxy...)
[02:03] <Ahmuck> !dvd
[02:03] <Elijah> jasballza: Use dropbox.
[02:03] <genii> Nom-: There seems something about it here http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man4/scsi.4.html
[02:03] <eqisow2> PodCoet: might be helpful: http://oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/ch09_01.html
[02:04] <jasballza> sprinkmeier: okay
[02:04] <judget> !webcam | judget
[02:04] <jasballza> elijah: whers that?
[02:05] <sprinkmeier> Elijah, LjL no. the super user "root" is running processes (background daemons etc) and you are logged in, hence 2 users.
[02:05] <sprinkmeier> jasballza, Elijah does dropbox handle 8G?
[02:05] <dafydd> could anyone please help me with this thing? It doesn't make any sense why alsa keeps muting the mix constantly

[02:33] <Allenhill> Hello folks. I am interested in ubuntu, finally about to download it, but all I see for 64 bit options are amd distros. Is there one for intel processors, or am I missing something?
[02:33] <PhotoJim> leigh: I'm not sure.  you might have to reboot to get it to be recognized correctly.
[02:33] <Ahmuck-Sr> Allenhill: yes
[02:33] <whou> Allenhill: yes
[02:33] <Ahmuck-Sr> faster than u
[02:33] <PhotoJim> leigh:  if you did, then it sounds like the partition table might have been damaged by the abrupt disconnection.
[02:33] <leigh> photojim, i have rebooted...it gives me an error of "unable to enumarate usb device

[02:34] <whou> !install | Allenhill
[02:34] <jasballza> How to use dropbox?
[02:34] <PhotoJim> Allenhill: amd64 works on 64-bit Intels too.  Intel uses AMD technology in their 64-bit CPUs.
[02:34] <whou> jasballza: you download the deb file
[02:34] <Allenhill> Thank yogreat, I really appreciate your help!
[02:35] <PhotoJim> Allenhill: you're welcome.
[02:35] <whou> jasballza: and from the terminal $sudo dpkg -i nameofthedropboxdebfile.deb
[02:35] <jasballza> whou: I've done that and killed nautilus. How do I host 8gb of files?
[02:35] <Allenhill> Well, goodbye fedora, hello ubuntu
[02:35] <leigh> evilaim:  it is not recognizing the drive in terminal when i type sudo fdisk -l...it finds my other partitions but not that drive
[02:35] <EvilAIM> hmm
[02:35] <EvilAIM> and you've restarted?
[02:35] <whou> jasballza: oh, dropbox only has 2gb
[02:36] <leigh> yes...it tells me it is unable to enumerate the device on usb
[02:36] <whou> whou: sorry the only thing i know about apache is that it is an indian tribe... :(
[02:36] <whou> oops
[02:37] <leigh> also...the light on the drive stays on even when i unplug it (signifying that it is connected to a computer)
[02:37] <EvilAIM> leigh: type: lsusb
[02:37] <EvilAIM> See, this is why I can't stay in this channel for long periods of time.  Haha, I'm so confused.  Who needs help with apache?
[02:37] <whou> EvilAIM: jasballza
[02:38] <skate2> why doesn't  http://localhost work for me unless i'm signed online. doesnt that defeat the point of localhost?
[02:38] <leigh> typed lsusb...hit enter and it just brought me to the next line, with no prompt
[02:38] <EvilAIM> ?
[02:38] <EvilAIM> really?
[02:38] <EvilAIM> skate2, what protocal are you running?
[02:38] <B419kid> Anyone know if there is a way to upload itouch music and movies on ubuntu? - i know there definatly is for regular ipod
[02:39] <leigh> evilaim:  i have results from lsusb, what should i be looking for?
[02:39] <infomomo> skate2: check what your /etc/hosts file
[02:39] <EvilAIM> do you see the drive?
[02:39] <infomomo> skate2: cat /etc/hosts
[02:39] <B419kid> EvilAIM: are you talking to me?
[02:40] <EvilAIM> ummm
[02:40] <skate2> EvilAIM, apache..

[02:40] <leigh> evilaim: linux foundation 1.1 root hub, i assume that is an unused port?  other than that i have omnivision technologies, i don't believe that is my drive
[02:40] <EvilAIM> skate2: so if you're online it works?
[02:41] <EvilAIM> leigh, I'm not sure.  Usually a reboot fixes the issues.  I'm assuming when you unplugged the hardware it phuxed itself.  Do you have a windows box? I'd plug it in there and let it load up, then remove safely.
[02:41] <whou> ok i have a question of my own, anybody know how to boot an .iso from a hard disk and make 'Install Ubuntu' a part of the Grub Options?
[02:41] <EvilAIM> windows is great for fixing external hard drives
[02:42] <leigh> i am dual booting windows i will try that
[02:42] <skate2> EvilAIM,  yeah only when im online. when im offline it shows the last output i was lookin at but not if i change it and hit refresh
[02:42] <EvilAIM> ummm
[02:42] <pyro2927> leigh, what is your issue?
[02:42] <B419kid> EvilAIM: it's not very strait foward, i don't really see any packages taht is suggests its just chatter for people who already know the packages...
[02:42] <leigh> evilaim:  thank you, i will try and troubleshoot myself...hopefully i won't be back!
[02:42] <EvilAIM> skate2, try and use your nat ip instead of the localhost.
[02:43] <leigh> pyro2927: i unplugged my external usb harddrive while rebooting and now it will not recognize the drive...i'm assuming it still is "connected" the the previous session
[02:43] <EvilAIM> B419kid: they're telling you what you need.  let me look into this for you and see if I can guide you
[02:43] <pyro2927> leigh, you should be able to force mount it
[02:43] <leigh> i tried sudo fdisk -l to find the drive and it is not recognized
[02:44] <EvilAIM> B419kid: sudo apt-get install libgpod ipod-convenience
[02:44] <B419kid> EvilAIM: Sorry i'm just a bit tired... and not very good with linux, tks
[02:44] <EvilAIM> It's all good.
[02:44] <pyro2927> sudo mount -f /dev/sdb0 /mnt/<volume>        ?
[02:44] <EvilAIM> then you can access the ipod touch via amarok
[02:45] <B419kid> EvilAIM: amarok is already installed?
[02:45] <EvilAIM> should be
[02:45] <EvilAIM> if not then sudo apt-get install amarok
[02:45] <leigh> pyro2927, how do i know what <volume> it will be?
[02:45] <EvilAIM> leigh, he means the mount point
[02:45] <B419kid> EvilAIM: tks, and then amarok is like a music library?
[02:45] <EvilAIM> leigh, so sudo mkdir /media/external
[02:46] <skate2> EvilAIM, /etc/hosts says <IP_ADDRESS> laptop localhost.localdomain localhost
[02:46] <pyro2927> leigh, evilAIM has got it
[02:46] <EvilAIM> leigh: then use: sudo mount -f /dev/sdb0 /media/extenal
[02:46] <B419kid> evil is it a music library>
[02:46] <EvilAIM> B419kid: is what a music library?
[02:46] <EvilAIM> it's like windows media player...
[02:46] <EvilAIM> just for linux...
[02:46] <B419kid> but i play songs on it through ipod?
[02:47] <sagredo> yo - is there anyway to join WPA secured networks with iwconfig?
[02:47] <frankS2> ye it is sagredo
[02:47] <infomomo> skate2: add to that line the name that you see when you type : hostname

[02:47] <frankS2> sagredo: just google it

[02:47] <EvilAIM> B419kid: you can add your files to your ipod touch.
[02:47] <skate2> infomomo,  it's already there
[02:48] <skate2> laptop is the hostname

[02:48] <Slart> gah.. I remember installing some alternative to gnuplot when I last used it, a couple of months ago, and now I can't remember what that alternative was called.. similar syntax but nicer plots... anyone recognise what I'm talking about?

[02:49] <B419kid> EvilAIM: couldn't find package
[02:49] <EvilAIM> which one?
[02:49] <leigh> pyro2927:  i ran those lines and i believe it is mounted, but i do not have any access to the drive...and it does not report anything else back with fdisk...should i manually unmount it and it will work or am i missing something?

[02:54] <olethri0s> hello gents. does anyone know the necessary steps to take to enable a dcm425 cable modem?
[02:54] <tritium> dotblank: that would be unwise
[02:55] <tritium> sagredo: are you sure it's not already running?
[02:55] <EvilAIM> olethri0s: what?  I don't understand the question...
[02:55] <sagredo> tritium: lol thanks
[02:55] <dotblank> tritium: it is just a single binary that doesn't have conflicts and dependancies or libraries, its just gens
[02:55] <drummerkid> i really need quick help. I have an external harddrive with folders i need to accesss on it. next to there folders there is an envolope looking thing. when i try to open them i recieve "You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of _______"
[02:55] <dotblank> tritium: *sega gen emu
[02:55] <sagredo> tritium: why can I not see a scan of nearby wireless networks?
[02:55] <olethri0s> EvilAIM: Well, when I connect my pc directly to the modem, it acts as though i'm not on the internet at all. are there drivers or something that i need to install?
[02:55] <tritium> dotblank: if it's a binary, you can't force the wrong arch
[02:55] <EvilAIM> pyro: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-180/180.37-0ubuntu1 <--- just search you vid card out and try it.  Only way to fly;)

[02:56] <dotblank> can't ia32 run it
[02:56] <EvilAIM> olethri0s: no.  that's a network card issue.  modems don't have drivers.
[02:56] <tritium> sagredo: is your wireless card detected properly, and are the proper modules loaded?
[02:56] <EvilAIM> B419kid: no worries, keep me informed.
[02:56] <B419kid> drummerkid: on the original system you used to put those files there: what operating system?
[02:56] <drummerkid> mint
[02:56] <sagredo> tritium: I'm talking to you on it now
[02:56] <drummerkid> linux mint
[02:56] <B419kid> EvilAIM: u gona be here tommorow
[02:57] <pyro2927> thanks evilaim
[02:57] <jasballzza> someone help me troubleshoot my connection
[02:57] <EvilAIM> B419kid: yep.
[02:57] <olethri0s> oh, okay. thanks man.
[02:57] <B419kid> drummerkid: i'm sorry i have no expierence with that system... sorry :/
[02:57] <drummerkid> b419kid: mint
[02:57] <EvilAIM> I'll be here every day that I'm not busy.
[02:57] <sagredo> tritium: what modules might I need to load? My friend next to me just installed ubuntu and he can connect to wpa networks with the gui. I tried doing with with wpasupplicant but I couldn't get it to function
[02:57] <B419kid> evil, ok.
[02:57] <tritium> sagredo: are you letting network-manager manage your wireless connection?
[02:57] <EvilAIM> drummerkid: that could be an issue.
[02:57] <drummerkid> hmm
[02:57] <sagredo> tritium: yes
[02:57] <EvilAIM> drummerkid: did you want me to help ya out?
[02:57] <drummerkid> i really need quick help. I have an external harddrive with folders i need to accesss on it. next to there folders there is an envolope looking thing. when i try to open them i recieve "You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of _______"   can anyone help me?
[02:57] <jasballzza> doodley
[02:57] <jasballzza> harrow
[02:57] <drummerkid> if possible
[02:58] <tritium> sagredo: then why are you trying to load it?  It's obviously running.
[02:58] <EvilAIM> drummerkid: then please don't repeat your question.
[02:58] <drummerkid> i mean if worse comes to worse i can boot from cd and save to flashdrive
[02:58] <drummerkid> o srry EvilAIM
[02:58] <drummerkid> i thought u needed it
[02:58] <sagredo> tritium: how do I stop using network-manager
[02:58] <EvilAIM> no, I'm good:)
[02:58] <tritium> sagredo: configure it manually in /etc/network/interfaces
[02:58] <EvilAIM> drummerkid: so have you mounted the drive?
[02:59] <sagredo> tritium: what should I put :x
[02:59] <drummerkid> yes evilaim
[02:59] <B419kid> EvilAIM: if i plug in my ipod will it be reconized by amarok?
[02:59] <tritium> sagredo: "man interfaces" to read about it
[03:00] <sagredo> tritium: thanks
[03:00] <EvilAIM> B419kid: hopefully...
[03:00] <EvilAIM> drummerkid: is it ext3?
[03:00] <B419kid> EvilAIM: like it will show up as device like as in itunes or?
[03:00] <EvilAIM> B419kid: I'm not sure exactly what it will do.  This is the fix, I don't have an ipodtouch.
[03:00] <drummerkid> EvilAIM: yes it is
[03:00] <sagredo> tritium: I would love to familiarize myself with it later, but could you help me with an example of wpa for this time?
[03:00] <B419kid> ill figure it out :)
[03:01] <B419kid> EvilAIM: tks for the help
[03:01] <ahotenus> How do I recreate the 'system->prefrences' and 'system->administration' menus in fluxbox??
[03:01] <EvilAIM> drummerkid: let me research a bit for you
[03:01] <chalcedny> we have a totally weird problem... BOTH of the keyboards to my husband's computer are acting backwards.. if I press capslock i get regular, if i press / i get ?  and for - i get _ .. *sigh*
[03:01] <drummerkid> EvilAIM: thanks
[03:01] <trend> EvilAIM can you help me, my power cable doesn't seem to work w/ linux
[03:01] <ohzie> this works great
[03:01] <ohzie> So much faster than VNC
[03:02] <ohzie> Thank you so much! :)
[03:02] <frankS2> chalcedny: you must set the keyboard country right
[03:02] <eqisow2> what's faster than VNC?
[03:02] <trend> cli
[03:02] <frankS2> lolz
[03:02] <frankS2> 2fast trend
[03:02] <trend> :P
[03:02] <ohzie> ssh -X is faster than vnc
[03:02] <EvilAIM> frig
[03:02] <chalcedny> frankS2 where do i do that? it never came up before
[03:03] <ohzie> by a significant margin
[03:03] <EvilAIM> one at a time;)
[03:03] <frankS2> chalcedny: what country are you from?
[03:03] <frankS2> chalcedny: its i the xorg.conf file...
[03:03] <eqisow2> ohzie: really? I'd heard it was actually the other way around
[03:03] <chalcedny> frankS2 usa
[03:03] <EvilAIM> drummer. lets try drastic measures... *THIS IS NOT TO BE DONE NORMALLY FOR ALL ELSE!* sudo chmod 777 /media/<mountpount>
[03:03] <ohzie> They both have ups and downs.
[03:03] <EvilAIM> where <mountpoint> is the folder you're trying to access
[03:03] <ohzie> I was using a javascript jacked-up version of VNC
[03:03] <EvilAIM> try that and tell me if it works
[03:04] <ohzie> This is significantly more impressive imo.
[03:04] <frankS2> chalcedny: grep "XkbLayout" /etc/X11/xorg.conf give me output
[03:04] <ohzie> also I'm just using it for pidgin and xchat atm anyways, so :D
[03:04] <EvilAIM> trend, your power cable?
[03:04] <disappearedng> hey everyone how do I read pdfs in Command line?
[03:04] <chalcedny> frankS2 ok
[03:05] <tritium> disappearedng: evince <foo.pdf>
[03:05] <frankS2> chalcedny: just open a terminal and paste it in
[03:05] <disappearedng> tritium: no I want to read it in command line
[03:05] <disappearedng> not to open evince in command line
[03:05] <drummerkid> nothing happened evilAIM
[03:05] <disappearedng> I need some good conversion from PDF to code preferably,
[03:05] <EvilAIM> ?
[03:05] <crdlb> disappearedng: you could use pdftotext
[03:05] <EvilAIM> drummerkid: what do you mean?
[03:05] <disappearedng> crdlb is it good?
[03:05] <drummerkid> nothings happening
[03:06] <jasballzza> namaste
[03:06] <EvilAIM> drummerkid: so, you type it in terminal, and then it went to the next line?
[03:06] <drummerkid> ya
[03:06] <EvilAIM> good
[03:06] <EvilAIM> now go to the folder you just stated
[03:06] <crdlb> disappearedng: try it and see? :)
[03:06] <jasballzza> looking for interested developers in Ubuntu Buddhist Edition http://buddhabuntu.8m.net
[03:06] <EvilAIM> and try to open files and make dirs
[03:06] <crdlb> disappearedng: it should work fine for simple stuff at least
[03:06] <losher> disappearedng: or use xpdf and then cut&paste the text you want into a text file. Might lose less formatting that way
[03:06] <B419kid> EvilAIM: cya tommorow
[03:07] <EvilAIM> B419kid: alright.  have a good night
[03:07] <B419kid> EvilAIM: you too.
[03:07] <disappearedng> losher: thx
[03:07] <EvilAIM> drummerkid: and if that didn't work, try: sudo chmod -R 777 /media/disk-1
[03:07] <frankS2> chalcedny:  what you find out?
[03:08] <B419kid> EvilAIM: oh quick question, do you think a usb mouseee with three buttons will work fine on ubuntu- just wana make sure before i spend a lot of $ on it
[03:08] <EvilAIM> B419kid: usually yes, just research before you buy.  on google type: ubuntu+mousemodel
[03:08] <B419kid> EvilAIM: ok
[03:08] <B419kid> EvilAIM: tks
[03:09] <EvilAIM> should tell you if there are lots of issues or fixes to make it work, but generally it work, and when you buy they have a return policy
[03:09] <drummerkid> hey EvilAIM
[03:09] <drummerkid> still nothing
[03:09] <drummerkid> is it maybe because im booted from cd?
[03:09] <EvilAIM> naw, the cd is the best way:)
[03:10] <EvilAIM> but the -R didn't help either?
[03:10] <lakotajames> What do I do to fix my removeable drives?  it doesn't recognize my flash drive or my sd card, and when I try to unmount the flashdrive I get "/sbin/umount.hal: libhal_ctx_init failed. Is hald running?"
[03:10] <EvilAIM> -R is recusive, means it changes all files to 777 which means write read and execute for all users.
[03:10] <lakotajames> what do I do to fix that?
[03:10] <lakotajames> run hald?
[03:11] <EvilAIM> lol
[03:11] <drummerkid> jeex
[03:11] <chull> frankS2: grep: /etc/x11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory
[03:11] <drummerkid> aight i think im out of options
[03:11] <tritium> chull: capital X: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:11] <EvilAIM> ya
[03:12] <EvilAIM> frankS2: Linux is case sensitive
[03:12] <drummerkid> no way to force permissions
[03:12] <drummerkid> ?
[03:12] <chalcedny> frankS2 chull is his computer.. but it seems to be working
[03:12] <EvilAIM> drummer, try the -fR then
[03:12] <skate2> what does this mean in my netstat output:  tcp6       0      0 :::80                   :::*                    LISTEN      -
[03:12] <drummerkid> excuse me srry i only speak stupid language EvilAIM
[03:12] <drummerkid> srry
[03:12] <disappearedng> hm... xpdf does NOT read pdfs in command line
[03:12] <frankS2> chalcedny: thats good...
[03:12] <tritium> disappearedng: nobody said it does
[03:13] <EvilAIM> drummer
[03:13] <drummerkid> yo
[03:13] <drummerkid> evilaim
[03:13] <tritium> disappearedng: you're best off using pdftotext if you want to use command line
[03:13] <EvilAIM> drummerkid: what is the mount point?
[03:13] <drummerkid> im sorry i dont understand/ know how to find it
[03:13] <EvilAIM> where did you mount your drive to?
[03:14] <drummerkid> idk
[03:14] <losher> disappearedng: if you've no X11 server I think pdftotext is your only option, but it will mess up the formatting
[03:14] <EvilAIM> type: ls /media/
[03:14] <B419kid> EvilAIM: ok, this time seriously, cya tommorow :)
[03:14] <EvilAIM> paste results to pastebin.com
[03:14] <EvilAIM> B419kid: g'night.
[03:14] <RussM_> skate2, it means some process (probably a web server, like apache's httpd) is listening for connections on port 80 of your IP v6 network address.
[03:15] <ubuntu_> yo
[03:15] <disappearedng> losher: I guess I can just use a command line pdf reader than do some processing on that then
[03:15] <drummerkid> ahh
[03:15] <lakotajames> hald stopped working,  what do I do?
[03:15] <EvilAIM> disappearedng: you want to write/edit a pdf?
[03:15] <lakotajames> sudo hald doesn't wok.
[03:15] <lakotajames> work*
[03:15] <losher> disappearedng: yes, the only issue is the formatting will be messed up.
[03:16] <bluenzo> opera == win <3
[03:16] <iruinedgtk> can someone help me?  i installed kde on my ubuntu machine to check it out, after i installed it, apparently gtk and/or gnome aren't starting.  i have a text login, and if i type "startx" i get my ubuntu wallpaper and that's all
[03:16] <EvilAIM> lakotajames: try: locate hald
[03:16] <EvilAIM> might be more useful instead of just trying to run something
[03:16] <losher> disappearedng: Also, check the pdf file. Sometimes, the text you want is visible in the pdf and you can just chop it out
[03:16] <tritium> EvilAIM, lakotajames; hold on.  Don't run it like that.  It's started at boot.
[03:16] <iruinedgtk> errr, i meant after i uninstalled kde
[03:16] <EvilAIM> *shrugs*
[03:16] <drummerkid> EVilAIM it gives me the name of the flashdrive plugged in to the computer
[03:16] <EvilAIM> I wasn't telling him to run it, I was stating where it is:)
[03:16] <drummerkid> not the external hd
[03:16] <EvilAIM> hmm
[03:16] <crdlb> iruinedgtk: install ubuntu-desktop
[03:16] <lakotajames> tritium: EvilAIM so I need to reboot then?
[03:16] <EvilAIM> fdisk -l
[03:17] <tritium> lakotajames: no.  It's probably running now.
[03:17] <Huufarted> I have a boot question for somebody.  Looking at some optimization for booting Ubuntu.  It says to change "CONCURRENCY=none" to "CONCURRENCY=shell" in /etc/init.d/rc   It then says to rename the S12hal to S13hal scripts in rc2.d, rc3.d, rc4.d  My hal scripts are S24.  What's the difference and is this a good idea?
[03:17] <lakotajames> /usr/lib/hal/hald-addon-acpi
[03:17] <lakotajames> /usr/lib/hal/hald-addon-cpufreq
[03:17] <lakotajames> /usr/lib/hal/hald-addon-dell-backlight
[03:17] <lakotajames> /usr/lib/hal/hald-addon-hid-ups
[03:17] <lakotajames> /usr/lib/hal/hald-addon-imac-backlight
[03:17] <lakotajames> /usr/lib/hal/hald-addon-input
[03:17] <FloodBot1> lakotajames: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:17] <drummerkid> ahh
[03:17] <EvilAIM> haha
[03:17] <drummerkid> something going on
[03:17] <infomomo> how to get DNS list when doing ifconfig or other command ?
[03:17] <lstarnes> infomomo: cat /etc/resolv.conf
[03:18] <drummerkid> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ fdisk -l
[03:18] <drummerkid> Cannot open /dev/sda
[03:18] <drummerkid> Cannot open /dev/sdc
[03:18] <drummerkid> Disk /dev/sdb: 2000 MB,<PHONE_NUMBER> bytes
[03:18] <drummerkid> 64 heads, 63 sectors/track, 969 cylinders
[03:18] <FloodBot1> drummerkid: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:18] <drummerkid> Units = cylinders of 4032 * 512 = 2064384 bytes
[03:18] <EvilAIM> *rolls eyes*
[03:18] <tritium> drummerkid: you know better than to paste.  Did you not just see what happened above?
[03:18] <Huufarted> !paste
[03:18] <EvilAIM> ok people, don't paste shit in here
[03:18] <drummerkid> haha
[03:18] <infomomo> lstarnes: is it like that fort most linux distros ?
[03:18] <tritium> language, EvilAIM
[03:18] <drummerkid> srry
[03:18] <drummerkid> wait can u read what im saying?
[03:18] <tritium> No, the letter "u" cannot read.
[03:18] <Huufarted> Anybody that can answer questions about rc.d startup scripts that knows them fairly in-depth?
[03:18] <drummerkid> k good
[03:19] <lstarnes> infomomo: almost all linux distributions and unix/unix-like operating systems use /etc/resolv.conf
[03:19] <drummerkid> wow im sorta stupid
[03:19] <losher> disappearedng: See also http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/access_onlinetools.html for a one-off
[03:19] <iruinedgtk> crdlb:  it says it can't find package gnome-desktop
[03:19] <drummerkid> anyways http://paste.ubuntu.com/137951/
[03:19] <RussM_> iruinedgtk, that should be "ubuntu-desktop"
[03:19] <iruinedgtk> network connection is alive..
[03:20] <infomomo> lstarnes: thanks
[03:20] <lakotajames> So what now, EvilAIM and tritium?
[03:20] <losher> k3b 1.0.5/ubuntu 8.04/fvwm -- k3b hangs during verify. It's just me, right?
[03:20] <tritium> lakotajames: what are you trying to do?
[03:20] <danfg> i have a simple shell question: for i in "word1 word2 word3" works fine, but what if i want spaces in a word?
[03:20] <crdlb> iruinedgtk: installing ubuntu-desktop said that?
[03:21] <iruinedgtk> russm, crdlib.  ok thanks my bad.  it says it is already installed and is the newest version.  i guess it is just not starting or default?
[03:21] <Slart> danfg: tried using '\ ' instead of space? ... like "word1 word2 big\ word word4"
[03:21] <EvilAIM> iruinedgtk: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[03:21] <danfg> Slart: i did try that, sh and bash just ignore it, does it work for you?
[03:21] <lakotajames> tritium: use a flash drive.  I had it plugged in earlier, and it worked. I installed some updates, and I can't use any other flash drives, and that one still shows up on the desktop even though it is removed. unmounting says "/sbin/umount.hal: libhal_ctx_init failed. Is hald running?"
[03:21] <EvilAIM> shouldn't give any errors, if it does it's your repo list
[03:21] <drummerkid> yo EvilAIM anything? if not ill just do 10 hours of work again
[03:21] <drummerkid> haha
[03:21] <RussM_> iruinedgtk, You might try "dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-desktop"
[03:22] <EvilAIM> ummm
[03:22] <EvilAIM> drummerkid: the system you're trying to get on, why not just boot to it?
[03:22] <drummerkid> because its an external harddrive
[03:22] <drummerkid> its just folders in 1
[03:22] <EvilAIM> ...
[03:22] <EvilAIM> that's screwy
[03:22] <tritium> lakotajames: ps aux | grep hald.  It should still be running.
[03:22] <drummerkid> yes very
[03:22] <EvilAIM> and you plug it in and it doesn't automount?
[03:22] <crdlb> iruinedgtk: try 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start'
[03:23] <drummerkid> id think so
[03:23] <Slart> danfg: hmm.. it doesn't even work with your example
[03:23] <lakotajames> Evilaim: no, niether flash drive auto mounts,  both worked earlier.
[03:23] <opera> !aol
[03:23] <EvilAIM> I'm getting confused:(
[03:23] <drummerkid> ergness...ah watever man. thanks a lot ill either figure it out or just give up :( thanks though so much EvilAIM and everyone else that helped me
[03:24] <lakotajames> http://paste.ubuntu.com/137954/
[03:24] <danfg> Slart: you mean "word1 word2 word3"? i am actually using a variable defined before, VALUES="word1 word2 word3"; for i in $VALUES
[03:25] <danfg> Slart: i even tried using double backslashes, VALUE="big\\ word1 word2"; no worky :-(
[03:26] <Slart> danfg: hmmm
[03:26] <danfg> Slart: any other way i can iterate thru values?
[03:26] <Slart> danfg: this actually works for me.. for i in word1 "big word" word3; do echo $i$i; done
[03:26] <iruinedgtk> russm, crdlib - ok i tried dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-desktop and i think it accepted that (it just went to the next terminal prompt with no error).  sudo (path) gdm start returns an error that gdm is not the default display manager
[03:27] <Slart> danfg: perhaps you can do something tricky with the quotes
[03:28] <crdlb> iruinedgtk: let me look up how to reconfigure that
[03:28] <iruinedgtk> russm, crdlib - ok i think i got it.  i tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[03:28] <RussM_> danfg, what does your "for" line look like?
[03:28] <iruinedgtk> it appears to have worked
[03:28] <crdlb> iruinedgtk: that looks right :)
[03:28] <danfg> RussM_: for i in $VALUES
[03:28] <taz_> i try to remeber .. in add/remove .. im look for.... somesomething hack.... u know google  change size like that.. i not good to explain
[03:28] <iruinedgtk> it sounds right too (listens to ubuntu bongo login sound)
[03:29] <X-722> I have a question about kernel upgrades - When you upgrade the ubuntu kernel, does the machine now see it as a totally separate installation? What I mean is, do you have to go through and reconfigure all of your settings every time you do an upgrade?
[03:29] <bluenzo> im at a ubuntuforums.org page... it says "System->Preferences->Themes"
[03:29] <bluenzo> but I dont believe I had that...
[03:29] <lstarnes> X-722: usually, no
[03:29] <crdlb> bluenzo: it's Appearance, then themes now
[03:29] <Huufarted> bluenzo, look for "Appearance"
[03:29] <TheSpark> DCC SEND "0101010101010101" 0 0 0
[03:29] <bluenzo> oh thanks :)
[03:30] <X-722> lstarnes: Im used to rolling releases, but I want to do a dist-upgrade on ubuntu without having to reconfig everything under the sun
[03:30] <Slart> X-722: not that I know of.. I don't have to reconfigure anything when I install a new kernel
[03:30] <Slart> X-722: of course.. if you've installed graphics drivers by manually compiling and such you'll have to redo those things
[03:31] <danfg> Slart: when I do VALUES="big word" "big word2" ..., i get an error: big word2 not found
[03:31] <X-722> Im currenty running 2.6.27-11-generic - I have a feeling this is not the most current?
[03:31] <Slart> danfg: tried VALUES=
[03:31] <Slart> danfg: tried VALUES='word1 "big word" word3' ?
[03:31] <lstarnes> danfg: try VALUES=("big word" "big word2" ...)
[03:31] <danfg> ah
[03:32] <Barridus> thanks RussM, crdlb - this is the artist formally known as "iruinedgtk" :)
[03:33] <RussM_> Barridus, Glad to see it worked.
[03:33] <jeanfrancois128> est-ce-que quelqu'un parle en français ici ??
[03:33] <bluenzo> has anyone heard of "Beryl" ? it looks like some sort of 3d cube thing, but different (better looking)
[03:33] <lstarnes> !fr | jeanfrancois128
[03:33]  * Barridus jots those commands down in his "how to fix my screwups" section of my linux notes
[03:33] <genii> bluenzo: Beryl is joined with compiz now
[03:34] <danfg> Slart, lstarnes: you are suggesting things that are not working, i appreciate it though
[03:34] <danfg> lstarnes: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
[03:34] <opera> !irc
[03:34] <bluenzo> genii, i have compiz, hmm
[03:35] <Slart> danfg: I never claimed to know the answer.. I'm just suggesting things to try =)
[03:35] <bluenzo> genii, is it just editing it? or what, im a newb with ubuntu and compiz lol
[03:35] <voxel_> I was looking to download KDE to try in ubuntu, and have come across some articles online that require the addition of a PPA repository... I was wondering what version of KDE will be installed 'right now' if I just install the 'kubuntu-desktop' meta package?
[03:35] <X-722> Anyone know much about dual monitors with 8.10? Is it a giant hassle to set up? I have them both going at the moment, but they are duplicates
[03:35] <crdlb> X-722: with what video card?
[03:35] <voxel_> X-722, what kind of video card?
[03:35] <danfg> Slart: i know, thanks though, i didn't think of those, but unfortunately they are not working :)
[03:36] <X-722> Geforce 8600GT
[03:36] <Scunizi> X-722: if you're running nvidia then use nvidia-settings and enable xinerama..
[03:36] <Barridus> i like linux, it's comforting to know that despite ruining it completely it can usually be fixed XD
[03:36] <RussM_> X-722, working good w/ my nVidia.
[03:36] <Slart> danfg: I've never managed to make bash ignore spaces in filenames and such.. even when using those zero separated functions..
[03:36] <voxel_> X-722, are you using the nvidia driver?
[03:36] <X-722> RussM_: Excellent, but that doesnt really help me much  :P
[03:36] <genii> bluenzo: Compiz is usually configured with compizconfig-settings-manager  or ccsm for short
[03:36] <crdlb> X-722: just install and run nvidia-settings, assuming you've enabled nvidia's driver
[03:37] <X-722> yes, nvidia driver is enabled
[03:37] <X-722> brb installing nvidia-settings
[03:37] <Barridus> voxel - kde is in the ubuntu repos
[03:38] <voxel_> Barridus, yes I realize that. I was wondering what version is downloaded with the kubuntu-desktop metapackage?
[03:38] <voxel_> 4.2?
[03:38] <Barridus> voxel_,  hardy or intrepid?
[03:38] <voxel_> 8.10, intrepid
[03:38] <theoneness> has anyone had success getting svideo out using an nvidia geforce6600?
[03:39] <o0Chris0o> !svideo
[03:39] <o0Chris0o> theoneness: I'm not sure, try google
[03:39] <TheMechanic> hey, im used to changing the usplash in hardy but it doesnt seem to work the same way in intrepid... anyone know how?
[03:39] <theoneness> well, tv out
[03:39] <danfg> Slart: hmm yikes i didn't know that, i thought sh/bash could handle simple stuff like that, makes me sad that i'll have to make a ruby script (i don' t know perl) to iterate some values and run commands
[03:40] <Barridus> voxel, i'm not certain as i run hardy.  in hardy there's two metapackages, one for kde3 and one for kde4.  either way when you install the package it will ask which you want as default.  i'd stick with gdm/gnome initially (you can switch it when you log out and log in)
[03:40] <TheMechanic> hey, im used to changing the usplash in hardy but it doesnt seem to work the same way in intrepid... anyone know how?
[03:40] <theoneness> google, unsurprisingly, was one of the first places i hit up
[03:40] <RussM_> danfg, you ever find a soln to that for loop problem?
[03:41] <danfg> RussM_: not yet, no
[03:41] <voxel_> Barridus, yeah you can switch it when you are logging in. Why do you say "stick with gnome"?
[03:41] <Barridus> it's under sessions/options/something in the gdm login which you want to use for that session (i can't remember off the top of my head but it's something like that)
[03:41] <Slart> danfg: afaik it's supposed to.. many commands support some switch to use \0 instead of space... and there are lots of tutorials around the net that makes it look easy.. I've never managed to make it work though
[03:41] <RussM_> see here http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/handling-filenames-with-spaces-in-bash.html for how to change the word separator to be something other than space.
[03:41] <o0Chris0o> theoneness: alright try searching in ubuntuforums
[03:41] <Barridus> voxel_, so you can test KDE before "comitting" to it and complicating a switch-back
[03:42] <voxel_> Barridus, oh yes! that is the whole point of downloading it.. I want to have both
[03:42] <bonez46> help.. I have 8.10 desktop installed on system with via chrome video on the mobo.. I only get 800x600.. where can I find xorg.conf samples so I can get the full video output?
[03:42] <danfg> RussM_: thanks a lot! :D
[03:43] <losher> theoneness: I have tv-out working with an old GeForce4 MX 420 for mythtv under ubuntu 7.10. You're welcome to my xorg.conf
[03:43] <Barridus> voxel_,  yeah you can do that :)  only downside is your app launcher menus will be cluttered with both the kde and gnome apps
[03:43] <honeybee0615> hello I am new to ubantu
[03:43] <TheMechanic> hey ive got a question about something that was changed from hardy -> intrepid, can anyone help?
[03:44] <voxel_> Barridus, ewww yeah I forgot about that.... I remember that from the last time I tried KDE
[03:44] <shyam> how can i suspend the system from the command line?
[03:45] <Flannel> !hi | honeybee0615
[03:45] <TheMechanic> hey ive got a question about something that was changed from hardy -> intrepid, can anyone help
[03:45] <honeybee0615> does anyone know about verizon dare music from ubantu?
[03:45] <crdlb> shyam: you mean a terminal running in a desktop session, or pure CLI?
[03:45] <Scunizi> !ask | TheMechanic
[03:46] <Barridus> voxel_, the reason i suggested to stick with gnome/gtk initially when you install, is that if you pick kde as the default, it will load qt toolkit and not gtk.  so if you're like "yuck" right away, and want to go back, some of the gnome apps won't work and you'll be left with unfamiliar ones
[03:46] <shyam> crdlb: X or CLI.. now am using xmonad..
[03:46] <shyam> crdlb: without gnome..
[03:46] <TheMechanic> i was wondering if anyone knew how to change the usplash in intrepid, im only familiar with the hardy way.
[03:46] <shyam> crdlb: i do have the gnome apps.. but not the panels and all its pure xmonad here.. and just practising to be the _wise_ computer user;-)
[03:47] <Barridus> TheMechanic, is startup-manager available in your intrepid repos?
[03:47] <nroot7> i can not type
[03:47] <Scunizi> TheMechanic: http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2008/11/how-to-fix-usplash-in-ubuntu-810.html
[03:47] <nroot7> takes constant keypress 2 print
[03:47] <samitheberber> shyam: for example pm-suspend
[03:47] <nroot7> help
[03:48] <TheMechanic> Barridus: yes, but when i installed it on linux mint 6 (intrepid-based) it didnt work and its not working in the terminal now that im running intrepid
[03:48] <honeybee0615> i have formatted my sd card to FAT 16, then used armaok to transfer the music to moble device, placed the micro sd card in my verizon dar phone, and it showed the songs, when I touched one to play, it went to the player for a split second, then said that it was intitiating and to please try again,
[03:48] <crdlb> shyam: gnome-power-manager handles that (by talking to HAL) in gnome, for which there's 'gnome-power-cmd suspend'. Ideally, you want something similar
[03:48] <nroot7> scren flashes when i press
[03:48] <shyam> samitheberber: cool! may be i should have searched over the woman options.. anyway cool thanks..
[03:49] <Scunizi> honeybee0615: you might have the phone format the card then just put the music on it from the computer
[03:49] <nroot7> help
[03:49] <shyam> woman->without man another man version in emacs..
[03:49] <mhiku> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[03:49] <mhiku>   libapache2-mod-php5: Depends: php5-common (= 5.2.6-2ubuntu4.1) but 5.2.6-2ubuntu4.2 is to be installed
[03:49] <mhiku> E: Broken packages
[03:49] <samitheberber> shyam: no problem :) (I'm also a xmonad user)
[03:49] <honeybee0615> can anyone help me?
[03:49] <honeybee0615> I tried that,
[03:49] <shyam> crdlb: wow that too is useful.. thanks buddy.
[03:50] <honeybee0615> but the phone runs off of windows media player usually, it wont recogize my phone, it sees the connection when I have the usb connected, but verizon isnt a choice
[03:50] <Scunizi> honeybee0615: does the phone expect a certain bit rate? if so you'll need to convert them .. say from 192 to 128 or something.
[03:50] <crdlb> shyam: the advantage of that approach is that you don't have to be root to do it
[03:50] <honeybee0615> what is that?
[03:50] <honeybee0615> and how do i find out?
[03:50] <Guest12177> !atheros
[03:51] <allquixotic> Hello, I am trying to stop my eSATA disk from going to sleep all the time. If I play a song that lasts more than 5 minutes, the disk has to spin up from standby each time. In 3 days it accumulated over 600 spinups, which is roughly 1/100 of the TOTAL spin-ups it's rated for! I thought they fixed this bug in 8.10?????
[03:52] <shyam> ah was just about to talk about my atheros.. its ath5k the module.. it some times detects the wireless and sometimes not(untill my neighbours buy computer i am a strong proponent of free wifi campaign so the network setup is open and encryption off)..May be its the problem of tht damnn wireless router.. did anyone had any similar problem?
[03:52] <Guiri> Hi, how can I have a package (tor) reinstall its default /etc/tor config files?
[03:53] <X-722> nvidia-settings worked like a charm, thanks fellas
[03:53] <Scunizi> honeybee0615: if they are mp3's then they are encoded with a certain bit rate. Your phone might not like bit rates over a certain amount so you have to change it by re encoding the songs.. read your manual on the phone to see if they state any requirements on the music.
[03:53] <Scunizi> X-722: what setting did you choose?
[03:54] <crdlb> shyam: what chipset is it? my old AR5212 works perfectly, but the new AR242x is a tiny bit unreliable here
[03:54] <tritium> allquixotic: that's an issue with your external drive's power management, not an ubuntu bug
[03:54] <honeybee0615> so once I find out about the bit rate on the phone, how do I find the bit rate of the songs?  are all mp3 the same bit rate?  and if so is there a terminal command I have to do for this ? or some sort of codec?
[03:54] <Guiri> Anybody on the reinstallation issue?
[03:54] <shyam> crdlb: ar242x with linux libre kernel having ath5k module.. same thing.. not reliable..so bought some long ethernet cable(lan cable)
[03:54] <X-722> Scunizi: Just enabled xinerama and enabled the scondary display
[03:55] <watari> grrr i finally got this installed and now i can't remember what i was gonna ask lol
[03:55] <Scunizi> honeybee0615: you can right mouse click on a song and check the properties.. there is a cli converter (several) that will re encode.. lame, mencoder and others.
[03:55] <shyam> crdlb: my wifi router is brand new and i don't have any other machine to test the connection too...
[03:56] <honeybee0615> so it is a seperate program I need to install?
[03:56] <Scunizi> X-722: cool.. xinerama works nice.. for me twinview is useless unless you have two identical monitors with thin framing so you can stick them together and make them appear as one.
[03:56] <tagsoup> i'm reading a doc that says to add http://ppa.launchpad.net/brcha/ubuntu to sources.list... where do i get the gpg file to do a apt-key add ?
[03:56] <allquixotic> tritium: Are you sure? I remember the 8.04 development cycle having major problems with an Ubuntu-triggered bug that caused disk heads to park extremely early because of aggressive power management being set with hdparm. But of course, when I try to use hdparm at all on this drive, I get an input/output error.
[03:56] <X-722> So which setting enables dragging of a window from one monitor to another? Both?
[03:56] <allquixotic> tritium: And furthermore, using any other operating system (CentOS 5.2, Fedora 10, Windows Vista) does not produce this issue.
[03:56] <allquixotic> tritium: Not very hardware-ish to me.
[03:56] <X-722> Or does ubuntu just see them as  totally separate workspaces?
[03:57] <crdlb> Scunizi: how is the experience any different? all apps should behave identically since they're seeing the same xinerama info
[03:57] <prav33n> I have a question regarding Shebang notation in script files
[03:57] <Scunizi> X-722: I don't think you can.  With Xinerama they are different workspaces but you are able to move a window/program from one to the other. nice because if you "full screen" a program it will stay on one monitor and not stretch across both.
[03:57] <prav33n> Can it handle multiple switches to the executable?
[03:58] <prav33n> For example #!/usr/bin/foo -t -d -o -s
[03:58] <X-722> Scunizi: Thank you
[03:58] <Scunizi> crdlb: you mean the difference between twinview and xinerama?
[03:58] <prav33n> Will this work fine?
[03:58] <Scunizi> X-722: np
[03:58] <X-722> brb
[03:58] <tritium> allquixotic: http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77672.html
[03:59] <watari> Hello, I was wondering how I can retrieve files off of my windows partition and put them in Ubuntu
[03:59] <crdlb> Scunizi: ah, that's just nvidia being broken :) as long as it sets the xinerama info (ie telling apps where the physical monitors are), fullscreen and such should work
[03:59] <watari> i just want to move my music and WoW files
[04:00] <cdm10> I'm running 64-bit Ubuntu on a new Dell laptop, and I'm having issues with the hard drive throughput dropping drastically on occasion, and causing the system to hang.
[04:00] <watari> im just gonna copy and paste my question
[04:00] <Scunizi> crdlb: yes with xinerama.. twinnview I think it sets it up as one large space thus "full screen" means "across both monitors".. I think you just said that but wanted to reitterate it differntly
[04:00] <watari> Hello, I was wondering how I can retrieve files off of my windows partition and put them in Ubuntu
[04:01] <EvilAIM> Yes
[04:01] <EvilAIM> sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[04:01] <crdlb> Scunizi: no, my point is that that's not supposed to happen
[04:01] <EvilAIM> but, in ubuntu, it should have the options under 'Places' to mount it
[04:01] <Scunizi> crdlb: with either twinnview or xinerama?
[04:02] <tritium> EvilAIM: that should be installed by default
[04:02] <skate2> RussM_, so apache in ubuntu uses ipv6 only by default?
[04:02] <EvilAIM> tritium: I know, I was just making sure if he's running an older version where it wasn't.
[04:02] <crdlb> Scunizi: both twinview and xinerama should be using the xinerama protocol to tell apps about the physical monitors
[04:02] <EvilAIM> tritium: can't hurt to check
[04:03] <RussM_> skate2, no, generally it sets up both ipv4 and ipv6
[04:04] <crdlb> Scunizi: the only time I know of when twinview won't is if you enable the second monitor after starting X (XRandR 1.2 doesn't have that flaw, but nvidia still hasn't implemented it)
[04:04] <shyam> had a perfect suspend experiment.. thank you guys.. will come later having some food.. or i'll hav to go hybernation..
[04:04] <shyam> crdlb: have some dbus error, i can't go for /usr/bin/gnome-power-cmd.sh
[04:04] <Scunizi> crdlb: ah.. k.. broken or not I would like to see three modes available.. twinnview (the way it works now), xinerama (two independant screens with drag across capability) and for lack of a better term, "Mirror" so what's on one is also on the other.
[04:04] <shyam> crdlb: anyway thanks.. bye..
[04:05] <bonez46> resolution? anyone?
[04:05] <bluenzo> how do themes work? I downloaded a theme, its a folder with a bunch of .bmp and .cur etc...
[04:06] <crabgrass> anyone know if it's possible to have multiple instances of wget running, each using it's own proxy server/
[04:06] <crdlb> Scunizi: imho, apps should just support displaying things across both monitors (optionally)
[04:06] <Buttons6> Brasero crashes on me every time I choose audio project, all other projects seem to work ok. :(
[04:06] <Droopsta915> Are all sound cards compatible with Ubuntu?
[04:07] <crabgrass> Buttons6: try k3b?
[04:07] <Buttons6> what is k3b?
[04:07] <Dulak> a burning app
[04:07] <Scunizi> Buttons6: a cd burning app
[04:07] <Scunizi>  & dvd
[04:08] <Buttons6> brasero was working so I don't know what happend
[04:08] <Buttons6> just burned an audio cd a few mins ago
[04:08] <Droopsta915> Buttons6: I would uninstall it, then reinstall it. I had the same problem.
[04:08] <Buttons6> i did that, didn't work
[04:09] <Droopsta915> Buttons6: How many times has it crashed onyou?
[04:09] <Buttons6> meh, 30 times
[04:09] <Buttons6> all in the last 5 mins
[04:09] <crdlb> crabgrass: apparently, wget uses the http_proxy environment variable to determine the proxy server, so yes, I guess. Just put a different one in each process's environment
[04:09] <Buttons6> let me try a complete uninstal through synaptic
[04:09] <Droopsta915> Buttons6:You reinstalled?
[04:09] <mhiku> postfix send isnt working, can anyone help me debug?
[04:10] <bonez46> why doesn't 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' work on my 8.10 desktop installation? Why won't it recognize my hardware and configure xorg.conf accordingly?
[04:10] <crabgrass> crdlb: that involves `export` in bash, right?
[04:10] <n00b> hello
[04:10] <crabgrass> crdlb: and i'm not too sure what you mean by environment
[04:10] <Buttons6> yes, I just reinstall brasero again, and it still crashes
[04:10] <n00b> I'm having trouble getting my wireless to work on 8.10
[04:10] <Scunizi> bonez46: it might not be receiving any info from your video card or monitor or both
[04:10] <n00b> would anyone be willing to help me?
[04:10] <Droopsta915> Buttons6:yeah mark for complete removal and reinstall, thats what I did. I installed K3b, just incase Brasero acts up.
[04:11] <Scunizi> !ask | n00b
[04:11] <Buttons6> i'll probably have to switch
[04:11] <crdlb> crabgrass: yes, or just specify it in front of the wget command
[04:11] <n00b> oh okay, sorry
[04:11] <Droopsta915> noob: Can't help if you don't explain your question. :)
[04:11] <xtknight> Buttons6, i have the same issue with audio cds
[04:11] <n00b> well I tried using ndiswrapper following multiple guides online, but it still doesn't seem to work
[04:11] <xtknight> even k3b doesnt burn the audio cds properly
[04:11] <Buttons6> i installed a lot of libs so I could compile some source, would those new libs be causing the problem?
[04:11] <n00b> so I'm pretty much trying to troubleshoot
[04:12] <Droopsta915> troubleshoot what?
[04:12] <n00b> so my question: How would you start troubleshooting the wireless LAN connection not working?
[04:12] <crabgrass> crdlb: so... `export http_proxy http://path.to.server/:8080 && wget www.foo.com/bar.jpg` ?
[04:12] <bonez46> why doesn't 8.10 recognize my hardware correctly/
[04:12] <crdlb> crabgrass: apparently you can also do it like this: wget -e "http_proxy = http://ip:port" "http://content"
[04:12] <crabgrass> crdlb: hmm, lemmie look into it
[04:12] <Buttons6> bonez, has any ubuntu distro recognized your wireless card?
[04:12] <HammerHead66> hello everyone
[04:13] <xtknight> Buttons6, intrepid or jaunty for you?  i need to know whether or not to file a bug for the audio thing as well
[04:13] <Scunizi> bonez46: because your hardware may not be talking back to the quiries from the software.. I'll send you a link from ubottu that might help.
[04:13] <Scunizi> !resolution | bonez46
[04:13] <Buttons6> i'm on 8.10, intrepid
[04:13] <perillux> could anyone please tell me the package name for the program "netsh" ??
[04:13] <Buttons6> PM me if you like
[04:13] <crdlb> crabgrass: 'http_proxy=http://path.to.server:8080 wget www.foo.com/bar.jpg' would be the environment way
[04:13] <xtknight> perillux, type "netsh" in the terminal.  it will tell u what pkg to install
[04:13] <perillux> xtknight: thanks
[04:13] <zaccour> my internet is 5 megs but the ubuntu updates dont download nearly that fast. what gives?
