[10:15] <Tokeiito> after updating from 7.04 to 7.10 wifi stoped work on Dell latitude D620. There is listed drivers in Restricted drivers manager but some how system doesnt load them. any idea how to fix that?
[10:16] <godfreyhk> bqmassey: gksu nautilus
[10:16] <Roshev> Ара
[10:16] <wols> Tokeiito: what wlan chip?
[10:16] <bazhang> chilli_: why not install and try it out? if you have problems, then tell them here
[10:16] <bqmassey> ok thanks
[10:16] <wols> alan: 3D working?
[10:16] <Tokeiito> intel pro ipw3945
[10:17] <chilli_> i did
[10:17] <bazhang> and what is the problem?
[10:17] <chilli_> but it will only  copy one part of the movie
[10:17] <chilli_> not the whole thing
[10:18] <onats> !pdf
[10:18] <ubotu> pdf is the Portable Document Format created by Adobe; viewable in GNU/Linux with xpdf/kpdf/evince, and also adobe reader (free download, but closed source)
[10:18] <kling0n> I have issues with random freezes of my machine
[10:18] <bazhang> chilli_: not sure, never used it
[10:18] <alan> wols, how can i check if 3d is working
[10:18] <chilli_> ok
[10:18] <onats> is there a good pdf editor for linux?
[10:18] <godfreyhk> so... is there anyway to fix it? if not i guess i need to reinstall it using apt-get
[10:18] <godfreyhk> but why is gem not working ?_?
[10:18] <kling0n> once in a while, the applications will hang (xorg is still running and I can move mouse/switch numlock on and off and swith to ttys) but all processes will hang
[10:19] <rly> is there any channel appropriated for helping me with my mic's definitions?
[10:19] <kling0n> I believe this might be an I/O issue of sorts, but I can't find anything in my kernel logs indicating what is might be
[10:19] <kling0n> I'm guessing the kernel loggin is hung be the i/o lock as well
[10:19] <Alyxander> anyone know if i can use virtualbox images in vmware
[10:19] <kling0n> any suggestions for gathering some relevant info ?
[10:20] <mabus> How can I get my ubuntu computer that is plugged into my windows computer through cables and the windows computer has wireless connection to a router upstairs which is on the internet
[10:20] <mabus> to connect
[10:20] <Tokeiito> wols so any ideas
[10:21] <Tokeiito> ?
[10:21] <kitofhawaii> kling0n: do you have wireless?
[10:21] <bazhang> Alyxander: my guess would be no
[10:21] <wols> Tokeiito: dunno how ubuntu handles that one, more than one possibility afaik. check its daemon runs and the firmware exists, check your dmesg and syslog
[10:21] <kling0n> kitofhawaii: nopes.. this is a desktop machine : amd Athlon Xp running a 386 kernel and gutsy
[10:21] <the_bard> why does my coffee taste so bad? do I need perhaps a different version of java? can someone help? :PPPPP
[10:22] <wols> the_bard: which java is installed?
[10:22] <kling0n> mabus: on the windows machine: right click the wireless connection and choose properties, then go to internet connection sharing
[10:22] <kitofhawaii> kling0n: hmmn well there goes the easy one :)
[10:22] <kling0n> kitofhawaii: yup
[10:22] <the_bard> wols LOL
[10:22] <wols> mabus: ICS. ask ##windows about it
[10:22] <snadge> can I have a whinge about an error message that I'm unable to start gnome settings daemon in ubuntu 7.10? i've tried deleting all the . paths in my home directory.. and i still get the error.. same with a new user
[10:23] <kling0n> snadge: does this issue remain across reboots?
[10:23] <mabus> kling0n: it is shared, I just don't know what I am supposed to do for ip settings for the computers
[10:23] <godfreyhk> any directions? (the ruby gem path problem)
[10:23] <kling0n> mabus: you messed something up in sharing then
[10:23] <snadge> kling0n: im not sure.. i dont generally reboot this machine
[10:23] <wols> kling0n: for gathering info, use a serial console or log ot another machine
[10:23] <kling0n> mabus: when you enable sharing windoze will runa  dhcp server on the connection you're sharing
[10:23] <wols> for trubleshooting, disable acpi, run a long smartmontools test, run memtest
[10:24] <kling0n> mabus: go back to the ICS setting and make sure you've selected the wired interface to the ubuntu machine in the drop down
[10:24] <mabus> kling0n: and use the ip address of <IP_ADDRESS>, which the router uses
[10:24] <kling0n> wols: good idea
[10:24] <snadge> kling0n: is there another way i can fix this error without rebooting?
[10:24] <kling0n> wols: i'll need another machine that works then... hmm and a serial cable... haven't used one of those for years
[10:24] <alan> hey guys, how can i fix my 3d, its not working. It says direct rendering: No

[10:25] <godfreyhk> thanks everyone
[10:25] <snadge> kling0n: theres no processes runnign with that name

[10:30] <snadge> kling0n: http://pastebin.ca/811926
[10:30] <alan> klingon, i tried that command and nothing happened that i know of. The desktop manager is still not there
[10:30] <kling0n> alan: ehh
[10:31] <snadge> i've just noticed there are no dbus files in /tmp.. nice
[10:31] <LimCore> wow, its DNF's 10-th anniversary since announcement :)
[10:32] <alan> kling, i have looked all over for it. I also tried to check if my 3D is working and its not. not sure what to do
[10:32] <kling0n> snadge: your user's dbus files will be in your home dir
[10:32] <kling0n> alan: start a terminal then run "metacity --replace"
[10:33] <alan> ok kling, i did htat
[10:33] <kling0n> snadge: hmm sudo apt-get --reinstall --purge install dbus ?
[10:33] <kling0n> alan: did you get a window manager
[10:33] <kling0n> alan: how are you starting X? and did you choose gnome as your desktop session ?
[10:33] <alan> i looked in system preferences and its not there
[10:34] <alan> kling, no, im brand new to this
[10:34] <alan> how can i do both of those
[10:34] <kling0n> alan: you normally choose your session from the login screen
[10:34] <kitofhawaii> alan: from terminal, "glxinfo | grep direct", what's your opengl renderer? also what video card are you using?
[10:34] <alan> im using an 8800 gts video card
[10:35] <alan> i just typed "glxinfo | grep direct and it starts a new command line with >
[10:35] <kling0n> alan: without the ""
[10:35] <alan> yes without
[10:35] <dooglus> is there some place for reporting repository corruption?
[10:36] <dooglus> gutsy keeps telling me I should update, and the update tool tells me there's a 404 error in the repo.
[10:36] <kling0n> alan press ctrl-c and then try again without the leading "
[10:36] <alan> ok i did it again
[10:37] <alan> it says unknown option '}"
[10:37] <alan> and then usage: glxinfo and a bunch of command options

[10:37] <kitofhawaii> alan: | is a pipe... should be shift + \...
[10:38] <kitofhawaii> alan: command again is: glxinfo | grep direct
[10:38] <alan> ok i did it again, sorry man just really tired, not focusing
[10:38] <alan> it says direct rendering : NO
[10:38] <kitofhawaii> alan: what about the opengl renderer string?
[10:38] <alan> and if you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose
[10:39] <niuq> what's the channel out of topic?
[10:39] <niuq> or something like it
[10:39] <uh_buntu> There are 1131 people here but everything seems quite. so I assume pm is a fair option
[10:40] <niuq> what pm stands for?
[10:40] <Slart> !offtopic | niuq
[10:40] <ubotu> niuq: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:40] <Slart> was that what you were looking for?
[10:40] <kitofhawaii> alan: do this...system -> administration -> Synaptic Package Manager -> Settings -> Repositories. put a check next to "Proprietary drivers" and click close. then click Reload
[10:40] <niuq> mmm i was wondering what a ghostscript is
[10:41] <PriceChild> niuq, you seem to be wondering a lot of things...
[10:41] <niuq> PriceChild: how come
[10:41] <alan> there is already a check there
[10:41] <alan> but i did it and closed
[10:42] <alan> then reloaded and got this error
[10:42] <kitofhawaii> alan: ok...then in synaptic package manager, click Search, and search for restricted-manager
[10:42] <kling0n> alan: grep -i "NVIDIA GLX Module"  /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[10:42] <earlmred> you'd think the kernel would compile faster on a dual core 3.2 =\
[10:43] <kling0n> earlmred: make -j8 ;)
[10:43] <alan> kliing, i got this
[10:43] <alan>  grep -i "NVIDIA GLX Module"  /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[10:43] <niuq> PriceChild: any general idea?
[10:43] <earlmred> kling0n, any way to include that in make-kpkg ?
[10:43] <PriceChild> I'm afraid I can't help you niuq.
[10:43] <kling0n> alan: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[10:43] <earlmred> kling0n, i'm relatively new to the whole "ubuntu" way of doing things.
[10:43] <niuq> PriceChild: ok, thank you, i think i'll go to ubuntu-offtopic
[10:44] <Slart> niuq: here's a quick tip.. before asking any more questions.. try googling.. here's a few things to get you started http://www.google.com?q=+irc%2B+pm
[10:44] <kitofhawaii> kling0n: :) i was just trying to avoid typos :)
[10:44] <alan> W: GPG error: http://www.getautomatix.com dapper Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY CC919A31E23C5FC3

[10:44] <alan> thats what i got after a few updates
[10:44] <niuq> Slart: i tried, wasn't really helpful
[10:44] <PriceChild> !automatix | alan
[10:44] <ubotu> alan: automatix is not recommended, supported or needed. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe »
[10:44] <PriceChild> alan, close synaptic or whatever else is open
[10:44] <kling0n> earlmred: man make-kpkg
[10:45] <kling0n> earlmred: you can "export CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4"
[10:45] <Slart> niuq: nope.. bad link.. sorry.. http://www.google.com/search?q=%2Birc+%2Bpm try that one instead
[10:45] <kling0n> earlmred: that should give you 4 threads
[10:45] <kling0n> earlmred: apparently the -j option is dangerous in kernel builds"
[10:45] <alan> kit when i did search i found this lsb-rpm, restricted manager, restricted manager core,  restricted manager kde
[10:46] <kling0n> kitofhawaii: i'd guess someone would copy/paste something like that :9
[10:46] <kitofhawaii> alan: go ahead and close synaptic and do the command that kling0n sent
[10:46] <kling0n> earlmred: the man pages are your friends
[10:46] <earlmred> kling0n, eh it's already going, i'll just let it do it's thing
[10:46] <kling0n> earlmred: "man man" to get started
[10:46] <kling0n> :)
[10:47] <earlmred> kling0n, yet there's no man woman.

[10:48] <chilli_> how do install gst-plugins-base
[10:48] <kling0n> earlmred: right... not always clear from context whether people are new to linux or just to the ubuntu distro.. just trying to help ... ;)
[10:49] <mm2000> kling0n: is it?
[10:49] <earlmred> kling0n, <3
[10:49] <mm2000> how can i do that?

[10:49] <alan> E: Unable to lock the list directory
[10:49] <kling0n> earlmred: on the other hand, the fact you're building a kernel might have been a hint :D
[10:49] <Fanch> hello
[10:49] <earlmred> kling0n, need stupid SLAB support for this creative module to /maybe/ work.
[10:49] <earlmred> sigh.

[10:50] <chilli_> alan
[10:50] <Fanch> I have what looks like a bug on mremap on ubuntu 64, is there any "easy" way to know if the problem is kernel or ubuntu relative ?
[10:50] <chilli_> alan
[10:50] <chilli_> alan
[10:50] <alan> yes
[10:50] <chilli_> you need 2 type
[10:50] <chilli_> sudo apt-get update

[10:52] <earlmred> mm2000, setup your hosts file for *.localhost <IP_ADDRESS> i think
[10:52] <alan> i have gotten to this point before chilli and it never gets to complete
[10:52] <row> how do you find out if a file is hard linked?
[10:52] <earlmred> mm2000, then in httpd.conf specify a server alias of *.localhost
[10:52] <kling0n> mm2000: just add "<IP_ADDRESS>   whatever.localhost" to your /etc/hosts
[10:52] <row> stat and check inode to see if it matches?
[10:53] <Fanch> is there any better place where I should ask ?
[10:53] <kling0n> then you'll have a hostname that resolves to your webserver

[10:58] <alan> however, i cannot even find desktop manager where i can enable certain effects

[10:58] <wols> alan: what ubuntu version?
[10:59] <alan> 7.10 -the Gutsy
[10:59] <kitofhawaii> alan: beryl doesn't exist anymore. you have to use compiz fusion

[11:00] <kling0n> perfector: easiest way: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

[11:00] <wols> perfector: mostly yes
[11:00] <earlmred> wow
[11:00] <earlmred> wine-doors is a nice app

[11:01] <alan> that is one of the ways
[11:02] <kling0n> perfector take the "held back" packages and do a "sudo apt-get install <list of packages that are held back> "
[11:02] <alan> http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/03/23/ubuntu-edgy-beryl-installation/
[11:02] <alan> that is the other
[11:02] <kitofhawaii> alan: ok...suggestion, make sure anything you use from now on says "ubuntu gutsy" :) lemme review the document
[11:02] <mm2000> earlmred: ty for you answer, but i cannot make it work. Could you please just look quickly at http://pastebin.ca/811940 to see what I may have missed?
[11:02] <perfector> kling0n: aha.. and that would update it?
[11:02] <alan> ok thank you so much kit
[11:02] <kling0n> perfector: yup
[11:02] <kling0n> perfector: should think so
[11:02] <wols> perfector: do a dist-upgrade
[11:02] <kling0n> perfector: unless the packages are not downloadable
[11:03] <perfector> wols: what will that do?
[11:03] <kling0n> mm2000: the virtualhost configuration should be in your apache configuration not in /etc/hosts
[11:03] <wols> read the manapage or apt howto if you want to know
[11:03] <perfector> wols: thanx wols..
[11:03] <mm2000> kling0n: i know that.
[11:04] <n00bie> does anyone here use  moc (music on console)?  how can i make it play aac-files ?
[11:04] <kitofhawaii> alan: system -> administration -> software sources -> third party software. remove anything with beryl in its name and click close
[11:05] <alan> ok kit did it
[11:05] <kitofhawaii> alan: now try "sudo apt-get update" without the quotes and see if it goes all the way through
[11:06] <alan> yea it did it
[11:06] <mm2000> earlmred: there?
[11:07] <kitofhawaii> alan: start on step 3 using this guide and go through the whole guide: http://www.howtoforge.com/compiz-fusion-ubuntu-gutsy-gibbon-nvidia-geforce-fx-5200
[11:08] <kitofhawaii> alan: don't forget to skip 1 and 2, since you already got the restricted drivers installed
[11:09] <alan> kit, i already have emerald and gnome installed
[11:09] <xenon_xavier> how can I find all my music in all my hard drives,and move it to one simple place where I can load it with amarok?
[11:10] <kitofhawaii> alan: yes, skip anything you already have installed and move down to the next line
[11:10] <xenon_xavier> I haven't been able to make a collection yet, mysql is set up and all but nothing happens
[11:10] <earlmred> that was neat
[11:10] <earlmred> x restarted itself
[11:11] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: you could try something like "find / -iname "*.mp3" | xargs -I % move "%" /home/xenon/music/
[11:11] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: BUT
[11:11] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: that would jumble all the files in one dir
[11:11] <hades> Hi all, I am trying to get TV to work, I have a USB tv tuner but how do I figure out what brand it is or anything?
[11:11] <addy_> lsusb ?
[11:12] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: and could create problems if there are more than one file with the same name
[11:12] <xenon_xavier> that would be ok the think is that I just whant to have all my music in one place like music or something simpole
[11:12] <xenon_xavier> thanks
[11:12] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: wait
[11:12] <xenon_xavier> I'll try it
[11:12] <xenon_xavier> ok ok
[11:12] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: i'd suggest you use something like picard
[11:12] <kling0n> drag/drop all your music into the app
[11:12] <xenon_xavier> ???? its an app?
[11:12] <kitofhawaii> kling0n: what, send #1 to do it?
[11:12] <addy_> hades: try "lsusb" or even "lsusb -v"
[11:13] <kling0n> then configure it to place the sorted music in a dir of your choice
[11:13] <xenon_xavier> but the thing is that I dont know where all my music is I have 3 hard drives and is spread all over the place
[11:13] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: then you could have all your music nice and sorted by artist/album
[11:13] <kling0n> kitofhawaii: ?? i didnt get that
[11:13] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: you could probably do something a bit more refined
[11:14] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: are you using bash ?
[11:14] <xenon_xavier> I see but I was thinking like getting all my files like .mp3 .mp4 .wav .wma
[11:14] <xenon_xavier> yea
[11:14] <kitofhawaii> kling0n: picard...always sent #1 (riker) on anything dangerous :)
[11:14] <kling0n> kitofhawaii: ahahah
[11:14] <xenon_xavier> I just got amarok and I thought that I would go find all my music and then create a database in mysql and do all that for me
[11:14] <xenon_xavier> It should as I've read but it just doesn't do it
[11:15] <hades> Amarok is awesome
[11:15] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: "find / -iname "*.mp3" | xargs -I % dirname "%" | sort | uniq | xargs % mv "%" /home/xenon/music
[11:15] <xenon_xavier> mmmm ok
[11:15] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: would move the directories holding the files into your music dir
[11:16] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: not a perfect solution
[11:16] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: but slightly prettier
[11:16] <kling0n> hang on again
[11:16] <xenon_xavier> I know butok
[11:16] <xenon_xavier> ok
[11:17] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: might want to add a -i to the "mv" command
[11:17] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: "find / -iname "*.mp3" | xargs -I % dirname "%" | sort | uniq | xargs % echo mv "%" /home/xenon/music
[11:17] <xenon_xavier> what does -i do?
[11:17] <kling0n> start by that last one
[11:17] <xenon_xavier> ok
[11:17] <kling0n> will give you a lsit of the commands it will run
[11:17] <kling0n> so you can check it'll do what you want
[11:18] <xenon_xavier> ok
[11:18] <xenon_xavier> I guess its loading
[11:18] <kling0n> hmm i have a syntax error inthere
[11:18] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: "find / -iname "*.mp3" | xargs -I % dirname "%" | sort | uniq | xargs -I % echo mv "%" /home/xenon/music
[11:18] <bullgard4> "detlef@MD97600:/etc/acpi$ ./sleep.sh force; + . /etc/default/acpi-support; ++ ACPI_SLEEP=true." What does the '++' mean?
[11:18] <xenon_xavier> ok i got
[11:19]  * kling0n loves the shell
[11:19] <xenon_xavier> xargs: unmatched single quote; by default quotes are special to xargs unless you use the -0 option
[11:19] <kling0n> hmm strip the "'s around the find command
[11:19] <xenon_xavier> ok
[11:20] <mrtimdog> xenon_xavier: There's an option in Amarok itself to reorganise your collection, works well IIRC. I don't use Amarok any more.
[11:20] <xenon_xavier> nop the same
[11:21] <alan> kit, one more question
[11:21] <alan> if i want to enable the cube
[11:21] <xenon_xavier> the think is that it havent compile all the music, havent search for it or just havent find all of it because it does not show me all the collection
[11:21] <alan> how do i do it
[11:22] <xenon_xavier> alan
[11:22] <alan> xenon, im at the settings manager, and it has shift+ctrl+alt+left and i have tried that, but it won't work
[11:23] <xenon_xavier> go to system preferences >>advanced desktop effects
[11:23] <sdakak> when i say "sudo /etc/init.d/udev" i get "*loading additional hardware drivers... [fail]" after a lot of time.
[11:24] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: find / -iname "*.mp3" -print0 | xargs -0 -I % dirname "%" | sort | uniq | xargs -I % echo mv "%" /home/xenon/music
[11:24] <niuq> is there any gui to check the assignations of dma, irq and ios?
[11:25] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: find / -iname "*.mp3" -print0 | xargs -0 -I % dirname "%" | sort | uniq | xargs -I % echo mv \"%\" /home/xenon/music
[11:25] <kling0n> there we go
[11:25] <kling0n> that works
[11:25] <kling0n> i just tested
[11:25] <kitofhawaii> alan: in filter type "cube" place a checkmark next to "desktop cube" and "rotate cube" (disable anything that they ask you to shut off)
[11:25] <kling0n> xenon_xavier: will handle spaces in filenames as well
[11:25] <adughep> in what deb  package  alsaconf  is located ???
[11:25] <sdakak> can someone please help? i just installed the wizardpen drivers for my tablet but now udev says [fail]

[11:42] <kitofhawaii> maxsoft2: which dhcp server are you using?
[11:43] <n00bie> kitofhawaii: hehe
[11:43] <Slart> gvsa123: if you want to do it at the command line there's always imagemagick.. I think there's a renaming utility in there
[11:43] <sdakak> :)
[11:43] <maxsoft2> kitofhawaii: it's /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart perfect thank you
[11:43] <leitao> hello. I've just installed ubuntu gusty, and I didn't like the new (Alt+tab) effect. I prefer the same style of 7.04. Is there a way to get back?
[11:44] <gvsa123> hmmm... not really into the command line unless i really have to... any gui app?
[11:44] <kitofhawaii> maxsoft2: all good...was next suggestion :)
[11:45] <gvsa123> Slart: if there's a gui app somewhere, i'd prefer that of course...
[11:45] <ricanelite> how come I could have audio on sites like google video and youtube but when I head over to a site like allgames.com i get no audio at all
[11:45] <riotkittie> leitao: i dont rememeber what it was like it 7.04 as i rarely used it... uhmmm install compizconfig-settings-manager to control compiz behaviorrrr or turn desktop effects off
[11:45] <Slart> gvsa123: hmm.. then I'm out of ideas.. unless there is some kind of gui for imagemagick.
[11:46] <sdakak> leitao: are you talking about the compiz thing? go to system>preferences>appearance>visual effects and say none. or else download the compiz settings package and tweak it
[11:46] <gvsa123> Slart: i just found one... phatch... ever heard of it?
[11:46] <Slart> gvsa123: nope
[11:46] <isleshocky77> I'm trying to get evolution to sync with my webdav server, but when I go to Preferences > Calendar Publishing > Add, no matter what I put in for information my "OK" button is grayed out and disabled. Any help would be appreciated.
[11:47] <jussi01>  !info phatch
[11:47] <ubotu> Package phatch does not exist in gutsy

[11:49] <xxx_> i know its off topic
[11:49] <kitofhawaii> isleshocky77: under the add window, make sure you select something for "calendar" to be published
[11:49] <kitofhawaii> isleshocky77: (the first tab that comes up) you must select a publishing source (the second tab is for destination)
[11:49] <mk_> 0
[11:50] <isleshocky77> kitofhawaii: I've selected one of my calendars.. still nothing.

[11:51] <lesshaste> I want to use libgpod 0.60.  How do I tell which version ubuntu comes with?
[11:51] <kitofhawaii> isleshocky77: you select webdav, put a server name, and a file name, and OK doesn't become available? on mine i only have to provide those three to get an ok (after selecting a source calendar)
[11:52] <mk_> 357
[11:52] <isleshocky77> correct
[11:52] <isleshocky77> kitofhawaii: correct
[11:52] <isleshocky77> kitofhawaii: What do you have as your server name?
[11:53] <isleshocky77> kitofhawaii: I have tried http://server.com/dav, http://server.com , server.com
[11:53] <isleshocky77> kitofhawaii: Still always grayed out.
[11:53] <kitofhawaii> isleshocky77: i can type anything...i tried several text strings (including obviously illegal ones)
[11:53] <isleshocky77> kitofhawaii: I have all the optional information filled out as well.  Still nothing.
[11:54] <lesshaste> how do you tell which version of libgpod ubuntu uses?
[11:54] <isleshocky77> kitofhawaii: I have publish as iCal and Pub Freq as Daily although I have tried every other combination without success.
[11:54] <ganeshhegd2> anu one knw how to install icon theme in this http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Blangerine+%28Preview%29?content=70165

[11:56] <ganeshhegd2> kling0n:when i click on download it comes in new window..
[11:56] <kling0n> ganeshhegd2: and click "install " and choose the file

[12:01] <Yanch0> guys maybe u know .. is there something similar to trac but much easier to install / mantain .. just for 2/3 users

[12:02] <kling0n> isleshocky77: are you trying to so a full sync or subscibe only ?
[12:02] <kitofhawaii> isle to confirm all steps i'm doing to get it: add -> check a source -> publishing location -> selected web dav -> type random information for server and file
[12:02] <isleshocky77> kling0n: I'm trying to add a webdav source, although at this point I would be happy with ssh, ftp, or anything that litup the ok button.
[12:03] <kling0n> isleshocky77: can you do in from the desktop ? i mean before even bothering with calendars try "places- connect to server"

[12:04] <abhi> i'm getting a weird problem while installing flashplugin-nonfree
[12:04] <abhi> the downloader proceeds to download the files
[12:04] <kling0n> isleshocky77: feel free to tell what was wrong :)
[12:04] <kitofhawaii> isleshocky77: yah i'm curious though for my own edification :)
[12:05] <abhi> and fails to install after verifying the md5sum
[12:05] <abhi> weird!
[12:05] <bullgard4> Where is the 'set -x' command in a shell script explained? I could not find it in man bash.
[12:05] <isleshocky77> kitofhawaii: For some reason I'm not used to the check boxes yet, or I haven't had enough sleep in the last two weeks. But I was merely clicking on the calendar source and assuming that was selected. I didn't notice the actual checkboxes next to them.
[12:06] <isleshocky77> kitofhawaii: kling0n: sorry for wasting your time and I appreciate the help.  Mental lapse.
[12:06] <kitofhawaii> isleshocky77: all good :)

[12:07] <kling0n> isleshocky77: np... brainlapse happens.. and now we know  a good question to ask the next guy having probs
[12:07] <isleshocky77> And I'll have time to redo my real laptop in ubuntu and be off xp.
[12:08] <isleshocky77> kling0n: Yeah, "Retard... I know it's an obvious question, but are you using the checkbox to select the source?"

[12:11] <isleshocky77> kling0n: but it uses so much memory.  I run windows xp as my environment, then I have a vm ware virt server to mimic my production machines.  I have samba access and dns setup so I can develop on my windows environment live to the ubuntu server and view everything like it would be in production.  BUT my vmware machines take up ~260MB each of ram.

[12:11] <kbrosnan> abhi: firefox?

[12:11] <abhi> kbrosnan: yes firefox
[12:11] <kbrosnan> abhi: /usr/lib/firefox
[12:11] <kling0n> isleshocky77: the memory manager is much more effective than windoze
[12:12] <abhi> kbrosnan: thx :)
[12:12] <isleshocky77> yeah, my thing right now is I have ubuntu desktop install my other laptop to test how I like it for full time use, and it's kind of slow and I'm not sure why. It's not that bad of a machine.
[12:12] <jellulabo> Muine is broken in Gutsy. I've heard there is a fix in svn. Can someone tell me if it will get packaged and updated.
[12:13] <abhi> hey there is a bug with the flashplugin-nonfree package. it fails to verify the md5sum after downloading flash plugin and then it doesn't get installed
[12:13] <isleshocky77> kling0n: This shouldn't be slow, right? http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00030440&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&product=326358&lang=en
[12:13] <orlock> I just upgraded from 7.04 to the latest ubuntu, and it crapped out when i tried to enable the restricted drivers for a radeon9600pro
[12:13] <abhi> anybody heard me on that? i hope it gets fixed.
[12:13] <kitofhawaii> isleshocky77: hmmn....i dunno i do a lot of VM work on my laptops. virtualization's been phenomenal on ubuntu
[12:13] <orlock> i had to edit xorg.conf and revert back to another driver
[12:13] <orlock> abhi: ahh, i think ym GF jhust ran into that
[12:14] <orlock> abhi: she was using my PC not 5 minutes ago and tried to install flash
[12:14] <isleshocky77> kling0n: Well the desktop setup I have is just a straight setup, no virtualization at all.
[12:14] <kitofhawaii> abhi: adobe released "rockstar" just recently...it'll be some time. the workaround is either to use the built-in plugin or download flash from adobe
[12:14] <orlock> "Oh, thats easy.... oh, damn, didnt work"
[12:15] <kling0n> well.. if you're dedicating multiple chunks of 260MB memory to virtual machines  I can see your problem :) have you got the memory maxed out ?
[12:15] <orlock> Hmm, nobody here gives a damn about the restricted drivers, eh?
[12:16] <isleshocky77> kling0n: It's a different machine then my real machine.  My real machine I run Ubuntu Server in vm ware. And it runs smooth.  This is a Ubuntu Desktop setup on the laptop I gave you the link to.  Just a normal straight insall as the only os on the machine.
[12:17] <john> how do i set the default app to open when i insert a cd?

[12:21] <orlock> wow, fastest i have gotten on this DSL pipe
[12:21] <orlock> except for a 100M ftp from a host at the upstream ISP
[12:22] <kitofhawaii> orlock: uhm...what do you have vdsl? or is your ISP providing ppp compression?
[12:22] <orlock> kitofhawaii: nuh, not vdsl although i have seen it in action
[12:23] <wertigo8888> hi to all
[12:23] <orlock> kitofhawaii: up until a few months ago, i was actually managing a network of hundreds of linux servers distributed throught australia
[12:23] <louis_cordier> Hi, I have just installed gutsy, but I am having problems installing latex209-bin, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47822/
[12:23] <albaz3245> where i can know  about kernel from start
[12:23] <wertigo8888> I've a problem burnin iso images.... 7.04 say that the cd is usad by another app.... ???
[12:23] <orlock> kitofhawaii: with PCI DSL cards utilising the kernel ATM stack
[12:24] <kitofhawaii> orlock: you were doing any compression at all with that? lempel zif?
[12:24] <fyrestorm> hello
[12:24] <ArabEyes> albaz3245 , see www.kernel.org
[12:24] <orlock> kitofhawaii: no PPP compression, it syncs at 8M/640k
[12:24] <fyrestorm> how can i get my x1800 working on live cd?
[12:25] <orlock> actually, damn
[12:25] <albaz3245> thanks ArabEyes
[12:25] <orlock> only 7616/384 at the moment
[12:25] <fyrestorm> ive been able to use ubuntu through vmware
[12:25] <orlock> kitofhawaii: i used to use RFC1483 based straight ethernet encapsulation
[12:26] <orlock> now i am forced to use PPPoA
[12:26] <orlock> but no, no compression
[12:26] <kitofhawaii> orlock: dunno pppoa's getting depreciated these days in favor of pppoe
[12:26] <orlock> kitofhawaii: nah
[12:26] <orlock> kitofhawaii: well yes, but only due to support
[12:27] <Stwange> please can someone talk me through purging any versions of java I have installed (possibly except for the firefox plugin), so that I can reinstall just 1.6? I'm having issues with Eclipse only finding versions that don't exist any more
[12:27] <orlock> more setups will do PPPoE than PPPoA
[12:27] <jellulabo> Can someone help me get cupsys to start automatically at boot. It was working and now doesn't. I have to execute 'sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys start' from the terminal. Printer services 'cupsys' is checked in services.
[12:28] <FFighter> hello
[12:28] <orlock> kitofhawaii: say, you can only do PPPoA under linux if you have an actual ADSL interface card in your linux system, a DSL modem wont do it
[12:28] <FFighter> I need to run a GTK app as another user
[12:28] <kitofhawaii> orlock: well yah it's as simple for manufacturers to put pppoe support for everything than support pppoa simply for atm
[12:28] <FFighter> how to do that?
[12:28] <orlock> as the DSL modem will just act as a DSL/ATM-Ethernet bridge
[12:28] <ari_stress> evening all
[12:28] <orlock> kitofhawaii: DSL nativly talks atm
[12:29] <kitofhawaii> orlock: yes it does, but the majority of what's going over atm networks these days is tcp/ip
[12:29] <orlock> kitofhawaii: so anything capable of interfacing with DSL should be capable of doing PPPoA, Ethernet over ATM or a combination of the two
[12:30] <kling0n> jellulabo: sudo update-rc.d cups defaults
[12:30] <JakeConnor> what is /dev/klog?
[12:30] <kitofhawaii> orlock: depends if you're using multipoint or not and what your service provider offers
[12:30] <orlock> kitofhawaii: all PPPoE does with DSL is add more data to be transferred
[12:31] <kitofhawaii> orlock: right but generally people use stacker compression on pppoe headers
[12:31] <kling0n> JakeConnor: did you install any HAM radio packages?
[12:31] <dooglus> is there some place for reporting repository corruption?
[12:31] <dooglus> gutsy keeps telling me I should update, and the update tool tells me there's a 404 error in the repo.
[12:31] <JakeConnor> kling0n: no, what's that?
[12:31] <kitofhawaii> orlock: unless it's consumer grade :)

[12:32] <orlock> kitofhawaii: the PCI DSL cards i use have a sourceforge repository
[12:32] <kling0n> JakeConnor: hmm i guess its a kernel logging device
[12:33] <JakeConnor> kling0n: do you know where my keyboard device should be?
[12:33] <jellulabo> Kling0n - Will running that command affect any printer settings?
[12:33] <orlock> kitofhawaii: its all controlled by wonderfull freely available software, is great
[12:33] <orlock> kitofhawaii: very similar hardware to the Sangoma Wanpipe gear
[12:33] <orlock> i think the latest drivers actually support them too

[12:34] <simion314> hi, did you have bad experiences with this verion of pidgin? like the accounts appears active at start up but i manualy must disable and enable them to work, and when i type the text jumps
[12:34] <Puckinovski> My xorg is confused as well =)
[12:35] <kling0n> jellulabo: no.. it simply instructs the system to run the init script on startup
[12:35] <Chri1> Can anybody help with an Radeon X700 mobility ? I try to set up dual screen mode... but I can't manage
[12:35] <Chri1> the gui for X doesn't seem to work
[12:35] <brobostigon> good afternoon
[12:35] <orlock> Chri1: love to, i cant evenb get 3d working wiht my 9600pro :)
[12:35] <kitofhawaii> orlock: i dunno these days i tend to prefer mpls in general over adsl and other forms...but it depends on the provider and where they have fibre to the street
[12:35] <kling0n> Chri1: take a look at the output in /var/log/Xorg.o.log

[12:36] <kling0n> Chri1: to test that you have your display devices configured properly
[12:36] <jellulabo> Kling0n - Thanks
[12:36] <Chri1> acctually I couldn't find anything that would solve my problem in google.
[12:36] <orlock> kitofhawaii: thats like saying BGP is better than 10BaseT
[12:37] <jimbo_> hi, just installed PulseAudio and everything works as I would expect except the vumeter. It only shows random static, not what i hear.
[12:37] <jellulabo> Kling0n - I received this error message.  /etc/init.d/cups: file does not exist
[12:37] <orlock> kitofhawaii: is it true they have an interstate there that is used to cull the morons?
[12:37] <kitofhawaii> orlock: /:) not likely. mpls service = metro ethernet service on a whole

[13:00] <addy_> argh, pushd is shell internal, it won't work
[13:00] <Puckinovski> Should I do the same command again from the recovery thing
[13:01] <pubo> hi all
[13:01] <wols> Puckinovski: can you pastebin your Xorg.0.log?
[13:01] <Neuling> wols: sorry i am new how can i open an xterm?
[13:01] <Puckinovski> im on windows now =(
[13:01] <rojanu> Well, I am trying to use samba as LDAP - PDC and following the guide on help.ubuntu.com and I need to download a file but can't
[13:01] <wols> !command | Neuling
[13:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about command - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[13:01] <wols> Neuling: you should NOT run a firewall
[13:01] <kitofhawaii> orlock: lol i come in here to get away from mundane life in cisco CLI. i dunno, i use opensuse anyway for work, but i'm really all for ubuntu working for the masses. it's my mission since vista came out :)
[13:02] <Neuling> wols: oh i always did that on windows system
[13:02] <wols> kitofhawaii: there is no orlock
[13:02] <wols> Neuling: Ubuntu is not windows
[13:02] <wols> it knows how to keep ports closed
[13:02] <kitofhawaii> wols: hmm...must've been a pm...:)
[13:02] <ConstyXIV> what's the compiz plugin that grays out locked-up programs?
[13:03] <wols> yeah, he's annoying me too and still has no clue at all
[13:04] <draken> how would i go about connecting a modem to the internet and making this modem only get data from a single IP and no other
[13:04] <rojanu> well, no LDAP fans here then, I take it!!
[13:04] <gvsa123> Slart: phatch isn't working for me... i found something from the repos (where i should have tried to look in the first place... lol) gwenrename... it's gui and the screenshots speak for itself already... hope it works well though... i'll give it a try.
[13:04] <draken> while my other PPP conneciton does everything else
[13:04] <erUSUL> !modem | draken
[13:04] <ubotu> draken: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[13:04] <kitofhawaii> wols: *shrug* :) yah bad attitude and skimmed through one too many books :)
[13:04] <draken> i know erusul
[13:04] <draken> i know how to dialup
[13:04] <draken> im asking how to route and also how to make the modem on the default gateway
[13:05] <wols> draken: ppp will do this for you
[13:05] <Yanch0> http://yancho.pastebin.com/d7fa3d82d anyone can help me with this error please?
[13:05] <Puckinovski> Would "sudo -dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" work from the recovery console?
[13:05] <wols> Puckinovski: yes
[13:05] <Puckinovski> ok reboot and try again thank you
[13:05] <erUSUL> draken: if you want to load balance between two ppp conections look at http://lartc.org/
[13:05] <wols> Puckinovski: choose vesa if you want to getg back to at least some GUI
[13:06] <Puckinovski> last time it worked fine untill i installed restricted drivers
[13:06] <Puckinovski> =\
[13:06] <draken> not load balance dude
[13:06] <draken> make the one connection only for one ip
[13:06] <draken> and the rest goes through my other conn
[13:07] <wols> Yanch0: pastebin your sources.list
[13:07] <Yanch0> wols how to do it pls?
[13:08] <wols> by opening sources.list and pasting the contents in a pastebin
[13:08] <Yanch0> a its a file?
[13:10] <Yanch0> wols : http://yancho.pastebin.com/d6d08d084
[13:10] <louis_cordier> Hi, I have just installed gutsy, but I am having problems installing latex209-bin, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47822/, any workarounds ?
[13:10] <tovarna> hi everybody
[13:10] <aguitel> when i try to empty the Trash ,nothing happens, why ?
[13:11] <Le^stat> so is gutsy a big improvement on feisty?
[13:11] <Le^stat> any opinions
[13:11] <wols> Yanch0: you need a newer version of ubuntu
[13:12] <tovarna> i think i need to path my zs1211 zysas usb wireless for inyection, but i am trying and i am getting mad. anybody can tell me how to do it? or should i use a live cd? in this case, wich one? thanks
[13:12] <Yanch0> wols and that means a format for sure? :(
[13:12] <gvsa123> when we install applications from the synaptic, where do the downloaded files get cached? and they remain there right? is it alright to delete them when you're running low on space?
[13:13] <kitofhawaii> aguitel: did you delete something while running a gksu? try opening terminal and "sudo rm -r .Trash/*" to flush
[13:13] <IdleOne> !upgrade | Yanch0
[13:13] <ubotu> Yanch0: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[13:13] <tovarna> y cual es el chat n español?
[13:13] <wols> Yanch0: you can upgrade, either to edgy, feisty, gutsy or wait until hardy comes out next spring and you can upgrade to that directly
[13:13] <IdleOne> !es | tovarna
[13:13] <ubotu> tovarna: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda.
[13:14] <Yanch0> ok thanks both .. but will software that i installed using source be broken ?
[13:14] <aguitel> kitofhawaii: all the time it happens ,i cannot erase the trash with GUI
[13:14] <IdleOne> Yanch0: pobably yes
[13:15] <IdleOne> probably
[13:15] <wols> Yanch0: depends how you insalled it. if properly usually not
[13:15] <wols> IdleOne: why would it break?
[13:15] <addy_> gvsa123: see Synaptic / Preferences / Files
[13:15] <gvsa123> Yanch0: why not upgrade to the latest version of ubuntu
[13:16] <gvsa123> addy_: i'll see them there? can't access synaptic right now though because i'm installing something...
[13:17] <IdleOne> wols: that has been my experience in the past but I must have not installed properly
[13:17] <addy_> gvsa123: you can manually delete the cached packages (button) and set policy versus retaining the files in the cache
[13:17] <jellulabo> Kling0n - I'm not sure where to start looking for the problem. The cups server is not starting on boot. No printers are available and I can't access the cups server through the cups web interface until I start cupsys from a terminal
[13:17] <wols> IdleOne: which stuff did break?
[13:18] <IdleOne> wols: dont remember was a couple of versions ago.
[13:18] <gvsa123> addy_: i see... thanks...
[13:18] <Yanch0> wols that is the problem .. cant risk i break working software .. will have to wait then till when i finish my thesis and have my data wsafe
[13:18] <kling0n> jellulabo: could be another init script hangning
[13:18] <Yanch0> thanks for the links but .. will save them to do it when im finished :)
[13:19] <kling0n> jellulabo: you could try sudo apt-get update-rc.d -f cupsys remove && sudo apt-get cupsys defaults
[13:19] <kling0n> jellulabo: but should make no difference
[13:19] <kling0n> jellulabo: have you been editing any of your init scripts?
[13:19] <kling0n> jellulabo: have you been editing any of your init scripts?
[13:19] <kling0n> sry double
[13:20] <soundray> How can I identify a font that's being used in a PDF document?
[13:20] <gordonjcp> soundray: experience
[13:20] <soundray> gordonjcp: have you got that kind of experience?
[13:20] <gordonjcp> nope
[13:20] <kling0n> soundray: it should be in the file header somewhere
[13:21] <gordonjcp> soundray: you could run strings on the file and see if it mentions it
[13:21] <Le^stat> why would ubuntu take other ppls ip addy's on a dhcp network?
[13:21] <wols> Le^stat: it won't. it only takes the IP DHCP gives it
[13:21] <kling0n> Le^stat: it shouldn't might be misconfigured dhcp server
[13:22] <kling0n> Le^stat: you could try killing dhclient and removing the lease files
[13:22] <wols> Le^stat: is the IP in the 169 range?
[13:22] <kling0n> Le^stat: the sudo dhclient eth0 again
[13:22] <gvsa123> gordonjcp: soundray can't you just copy them and paste them in a word processor to see what comes up?
[13:23] <soundray> gvsa123: for that to work, I'd have to have the font installed, wouldn't I?
[13:23] <Puckinovski> I tried doing the -dpkg command and it said unknown command
[13:23] <kling0n> soundray: pdffonts
[13:23] <soundray> gordonjcp: thanks, strings turns up a few candidates
[13:23] <gvsa123> soundray: ah yeah... most probably... is it some weird looking font
[13:23] <kling0n> soundray: theres a utility for it called pdffonts
[13:24] <Puckinovski> can i use the live cd and copy the xorg file over?
[13:24] <Anubis_be> hey all, maybe a stupid question but how can I see how big a certain directory is? (like my var directory or so)
[13:24] <soundray> kling0n: that sounds promising. Found it in poppler-utils
[13:24] <kling0n> soundray: yup
[13:24] <kling0n> soundray: looks like the thing youre looking for
[13:24] <kling0n> soundray: gives a list of all defined fonts in the doc
[13:24] <gvsa123> Anubis_be: there\s a tool in applications>accessories
[13:25] <soundray> kling0n: alas, the list is quite big...
[13:25] <Anubis_be> gvsa123 I mean trough command line :)
[13:25] <kling0n> the utility is included in the xpdf package as well
[13:25] <rhalff> hi, if I do apt-get source linux-image-xen, do I get the patched xen kernel or is it just an unconfigured kernel source ?
[13:25] <kling0n> soundray: have you tried installing msttcorefonts
[13:25] <soundray> kling0n: it's Frutiger
[13:26] <Puckinovski> wols are you still around?
[13:26] <kitofhawaii> Anubis: du -c
[13:26] <kling0n>  soundray http://www.frontpagewebmaster.com/m-348433/tm.htm
[13:26] <kling0n> its in the microsoft reader pacakge
[13:26] <kling0n> package
[13:27] <kling0n> install orange or cabextract to get it out of the install package
[13:27] <wols> ask the channel
[13:27] <SuicideSalmon> does anyone use a program similar to aqua datastudio in 7.10? I tried installing it but had issues, but any alternatives are welcome
[13:27] <Anubis_be> kitofhawaii thx :)
[13:27] <ari_stress> hi guys, why my pidgin only shows my friends upto "R" alphabet? anyone encounter it?
[13:27] <kling0n> SuicideSalmon: which database type are you looking to browse?
[13:28] <kling0n> mysql has some tools available for free
[13:28] <kling0n> for mysql databases (duh)
[13:28] <SuicideSalmon> kling0n, mysql. I just want to be able to create and view tables, and run queries
[13:28] <soundray> kling0n: very nice, thank you.
[13:28] <kling0n> pqsql has a nice gui availablealso
[13:28] <kling0n> soundray: np
[13:28] <earlmred> hmm
[13:28] <earlmred> ubuntu just dimmed my displays after not moving the mouse for awhile, the primary monitor came back normal, but my secondary is still dimmed?
[13:28] <gvsa123> time remaining: 5 mins...
[13:29] <wols> SuicideSalmon: phpmyadmin
[13:29] <kling0n> SuicideSalmon: try mysql-navigator
[13:29] <titusg> I want to use emacs with anti-aliased fonts -- how do I find the names of the fonts on my (feisty) system?
[13:29] <rhalff> how do I get the source that was used to create the xen kernel ?
[13:29] <kling0n> SuicideSalmon: or mysql workbench
[13:29] <wols> rhalff: apt-get source <package>
[13:30] <kling0n> rhalff: or sudo apt-get install xen-source-2.6.16
[13:30] <kling0n> rhalff: which will put the sources in /usr/sys
[13:30] <rhalff> wols, I did that, apt-get source linux-image-xen, but I'm not sure if that really is the xen kernel
[13:31] <SuicideSalmon> thanks, ill give them a shot
[13:31] <rhalff> kling0n, yeah but that confuses me also xen-source-2.6.16, because the default kernel is 2.6.22-xen
[13:31] <rhalff> kling0n, makes me wonder why there isn't a xen-source-2.6.22
[13:32] <kling0n> rhalff: have you got the dpkg-src enabled in your sources.list ?
[13:32] <Slart> gvsa123: ah, sorry about that.. was getting some dinner... did you get it to work?
[13:32] <rhalff> kling0n, yeah
[13:32] <kling0n> s/dpkg-src/deb-src
[13:33] <rhalff> kling0n, could you do apt-get source linux-image-xen and tell me if that is a xen kernel source ? I think it isn't
[13:33] <gvsa123> Slart: phatch? nope... i'm still downloading gwen... 5 mins... the screenshots look promising... this could be the one... lol
[13:33] <kling0n> rhalff: take wols' advice and apt-get source linux-image-2.6.22-14-xen
[13:34] <rhalff> kling0n, ok still, that isn't the patched xen kernel source I think.
[13:34] <rhalff> just the normal kernel source
[13:35] <kling0n> rhalff: is a metapackage
[13:35] <adrian15> does anyone have experience on building ubuntu gfxboot themes  ?
[13:36] <kling0n> rhalff: why do you need the sources? does the prepared builds not work for you ?
[13:36] <ari_stress> is 64bit faster than 32bit? i use core duo, should i use 64 or 32?
[13:36] <rhalff> kling0n, no the 3w-9xxx driver fails with xen
[13:36] <SuicideSalmon> kling0n, mysql-navigator looks like it's going to be just what I needed :) thanks
[13:36] <kling0n> rhalff: apt-get source xen-source
[13:37] <tupson> Morning, I have a problem
[13:37]  * kling0n nods at SuicideSalmon
[13:37] <rhalff> kling0n, so I need to rebuild 1 module, but I don't have the /usr/src/linux build tree
[13:37] <tupson> When I turn on my laptop, it doesn't finish loading my Ubuntu
[13:37] <ari_stress> SuicideSalmon: nice nickname :D
[13:37] <tupson> I have to hard boot it and turn it back on, then it takes about 5-10 minutes to get to the log in screen
[13:37] <SuicideSalmon> thanks ari_stress :)
[13:37] <kling0n> rhalff: ahh you could just install the xen headers then
[13:37] <mathias__> I'm having a bit of a sound problem.
[13:38] <kling0n> rhalff: apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.22-14-xen
[13:38] <rhalff> kling0n, but that will get me  2.6.19-2
[13:38] <ari_stress> tupson, what's your laptop
[13:38] <incorrect> can anyone recommend an alternative to nagios?
[13:38] <speedhunt3r> hi...can anyone tell me how and where do i install downloaded icon themes?
[13:38] <tupson> Inspiron 9200 series
[13:38] <incorrect> ideally something that drives off snmp
[13:38] <kling0n> speedhunt3r: gnome-look.org
[13:38] <speedhunt3r> kling0n: i asked where to install them, i already downloaded them
[13:38] <kling0n> speedhunt3r: then system-preferences-appearance and click install
[13:38] <tupson> the problem just started happening as well...
[13:38] <speedhunt3r> ty
[13:38] <kling0n> speedhunt3r: can't type any faster than that :)
[13:38] <titusg> do you know how I can get the names of available fonts in the right format for emacs?
[13:39] <mathias__> If I turn up the volume past about 1/4 on my speakers, I started getting an annoying clicking sound, even with nothing playing.
[13:39] <speedhunt3r> kling0n: haha no problem, sorry
[13:39] <rhalff> kling0n, that was my first try, but the 3w-9xxx driver want's more then just headers
[13:39] <kling0n> mathias__: what sound card?
[13:39] <kling0n> rhalff: apt-get source xen-source then
[13:39] <mathias__> It's integrated sound on the Mobo.  Realtek I think.
[13:39] <tupson> ari_stress: any thoughts?
[13:40] <kling0n> mathias__: lspci | grep -i audio
[13:40] <rhalff> kling0n, but that's 2.6.16 instead of 2.6.22, so that's not the source of the default xen kernel, so I'm clueless on where that source is.
[13:40] <dfechete> soundray: hey bro :)
[13:40] <Zeldor> hi
[13:40] <mathias__> 00:05.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP61 High Definition Audio (rev a2)
[13:41] <Flash> a
[13:41] <soundray> Hi Flash
[13:41] <Zeldor> i want to get an ubuntu cd. Why do i have to write down my phone number?
[13:41] <Flash> soundray: u in?
[13:41] <mathias__> Ok, clicking is gone now (somehow) but I do have the whitenoise just having volume up high
[13:41] <soundray> Flash: working. How are you getting on?
[13:41] <hypn0> Zeldor: you don't
[13:42] <young_> because they may contact you when it needed
[13:42] <Flash> soundray: man i found something saying that i should make my sata drive act like an IDE drive :P
[13:42] <Flash> soundray: from bios
[13:42] <soundray> Flash: have you got a BIOS option like that?
[13:42] <Flash> soundray: man i`m ok... did a reinstall of ubuntu on 64 bit... it booted once :))))
[13:42] <Flash> soundray: nope :(
[13:42] <kling0n> rhalff: i'd start using google
[13:43] <soundray> Flash: you mean it booted once and then failed again?
[13:43] <Flash> soundray: yeah
[13:43] <Zeldor> but its required
[13:43] <rhalff> kling0n, ok thanks anyway
[13:43] <kling0n> rhalff: i'd guess you need the xen-source and linux-source-2.6.22 packages installed
[13:43] <kling0n> rhalff: how to configure from there i'm not sure
[13:43] <hypn0> Zeldor: they will stick it on front of package if you do, just write myob there :-)
[13:43] <kling0n> but try installing the linux-source-2.6.22 and then try the driver again
[13:43] <kling0n> rhalff: whats the device again ?
[13:44] <soundray> Flash: you have a weird machine, mate
[13:44] <Zeldor> hmm so you've never called by them?
[13:44] <jariep1_> hi all
[13:44] <mathias__> Is there an advantage to open-source drivers over proprietary ones?  I use an Nvidia 7600 GT.
[13:44] <kling0n> rhalff: that you need to compile the driver for ?
[13:44] <jariep1_> how do i make var www writeable
[13:44] <rhalff> kling0n, 3ware 9550sxu raid controller, it uses the 3w-9xxx driver
[13:44] <ikonia> mathias__: the nvidia.com driver package by ubuntu is a better driver
[13:44] <Flash> soundray: man i have the Acer Aspire 5520G notebook
[13:44] <ikonia> mathias__: open source as a technology or methodology though is the prefered option
[13:44] <gvsa123> Slart: i thought gwenrename was supposed to be gui.. but there's no entry in the menu.. when i run it in the terminal, an error occurs.. no input file selected
[13:44] <ikonia> mathias__: its a conflict of choice
[13:45] <soundray> Flash: I know
[13:45] <hypn0> Zeldor: just write 'I don't have one' I never wrote mine
[13:45] <soundray> Flash: is it new?
[13:45] <nilson2> msn
[13:45] <Flash> soundray: and i don`t think ubuntu has drivers for it yet...
[13:45] <Flash> soundray: yes... brand new
[13:45] <mathias__> ikonia: So just go to Nvidia.com and download theirs?
[13:45] <Zeldor> ok thanks a lot hypn0
[13:45] <nilson2> i8 the six
[13:45] <ikonia> mathias__: no - use the nvidia driver packaged in ubuntu
[13:45] <kling0n> rhalff: so no prepared driver sources in ubuntu is that correct?
[13:45] <tupson> did Ubuntu disable the splash screen in 7.10?
[13:45] <mathias__> ikonia: Oh, ok.
[13:45] <Flash> soundray: got  it last week... been trying to get it to work since then...
[13:45] <ikonia> mathias__: ubuntu package the drivers from nvidia.com to make them compatible and supportable within ubuntu
[13:45] <ikonia> tupson: no
[13:46] <nilson2> you the black
[13:46] <ikonia> nilson2: do you have a question about ubuntu ?
[13:46] <tupson> ikonia: when i turn on my laptop, after my DELL Logo drops, i have a blank black screen for about 10 mins before it brings up the login screen
[13:46] <rhalff> kling0n, the driver works ok if I'm not using xen, but it's a bug in the driver itself, which causes it to crash in xen.
[13:46] <bazhang> nilson2: what's the issue?
[13:46] <mathias__> ikonia: Ok, I'm already using the accelerated driver packaged with Ubuntu and it's on.  So I guess I'm good
[13:46] <JuJuBee> I wish to generate a CSR for an SSL cert with an unencrypted passkey.  Can find many how-to for creating encrypted, but not unencrypted.  Any help?
[13:46] <soundray> Flash: Acer sell laptops with Linux preinstalled. Don't you want to get an exchange?
[13:47] <mathias__> There's a Ubuntu wiki page, isn't there?
[13:47] <Slart> gvsa123: what is the error?
[13:47] <ikonia> mathias__: yes, https://help.ubuntu.com
[13:47] <mathias__> Thanks
[13:47] <ikonia> JuJuBee: the point of the passkey is encyption
[13:48] <jariep1_> can you guys help file permssions for sudo root
[13:48] <tupson> ikonia: any thoughts?
[13:48] <gvsa123> Slart: no input file... does this ( http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php/GwenRename?content=11844 ) mean it only works with konqueror or kde?
[13:48] <gvsa123> Slart:    GwenView: select file(s) - right click - "External Tools / Rename with GwenRename"
[13:48] <gvsa123>   Konqueror: select file(s) - right click - "Actions / Rename with GwenRename"
[13:48] <Slart> gvsa123: you can run kde software on gnome.. you just need to install the basic kde stuff
[13:48] <rhalff> kling0n, it's this issue http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2007-09/msg00210.html
[13:48] <ikonia> tupson: frambuffer issues ?
[13:48] <soundray> kling0n: I'm trying to use unshield on the data in the Reader package. It complains of MD5 checksum failures on the contained files (inlcuding the fonts that I'm after)
[13:48] <tupson> ikonia: how can i correct that
[13:49] <JuJuBee> ikonia : from what i've read, having an unencrypted key does not hurt the protection of ssl.  It just means that when apache restarts, it can do so unattended.  Now I have to enter the password every time apache restarts.  So when power goes out, the server is not functional until I return to enter the passkey.
[13:49] <tupson> i assume that is why my boot process is having issues
[13:49] <ikonia> tupson: change the vga parameter in your kernel boot options
[13:49] <gvsa123> Slart: yeah... i just marked everything synaptic suggested... but there's no entry in the menu or anything... terminal show a no input file selected error
[13:49] <ikonia> JuJuBee: you have to change the script to input that
[13:49] <Slart> gvsa123: I'll give it a try.. hang on
[13:49] <kling0n> soundray: you could try installing it with wine an dget the file from there
[13:49] <tupson> ikonia: how and where do i do that (new linux user)
[13:49] <Flash> soundray: yeah shure if i could... ut i`m in freekin Romania
[13:49] <ikonia> tupson: in your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[13:49] <JuJuBee> ikonia, to inpu the  passkey at startup?  How.
[13:49] <ikonia> JuJuBee: join #apache and ask in there,
[13:49] <JuJuBee> Thanks.
[13:50] <jariep1_> Flash i have a frined i Romania in a datacenter with T1
[13:50] <gvsa123> Slart: wow... thanks...
[13:50] <Slart> gvsa123: ah.. you'll have to start it manually.. and specify which files you're going to work with.
[13:50] <tupson> do i go there in the terminal or folder?
[13:50] <Slart> gvsa123: you have all the files you want to rename in a single folder?
[13:50] <Flash> jariep1_: do you think he could help me?
[13:50] <ikonia> tupson: any text editor to edit that file
[13:50] <ikonia> Flash: what is the problem
[13:50] <jariep1_> what are you trying to do?
[13:50] <gvsa123> Slart: i see.. i have a test copy on the desktop.. i'll; give it a try
[13:51] <kling0n> rhalff: i'd suggest reading the build documentation for xen and for the driver, I can't really help you more
[13:51] <jariep1_> Flash what is it you are trying to do?
[13:51] <rhalff> kling0n, ok thanks for your time :)
[13:51] <Flash> ikonia: i have a problem with ubuntu booting on my acer aspire 5520g... some sort of sata controller problem
[13:51] <kling0n> rhalff: do you need to rebuild the driver or the xen ?
[13:51] <ikonia> Flash: can you please give a brief explination
[13:51] <Flash> jariep1_: i`m trying to install ubuntu...and after install no boot
[13:52] <Slart> gvsa123: if you have it all in one folder you just cd to the folder and run it like "gwenrename *.jpg" or something similar
[13:52] <Flash> ikonia: after i install it doesn`t see my sata drive
[13:52] <ikonia> Flash: what makes you think that ?
[13:52] <ikonia> Flash: can you explain the symptom
[13:52] <gvsa123> Slart: ah there you go... maybe i'll just make a launcher and create a folder where i'll put all the files to be renamed so i don't have to navigate everytime...
[13:52] <Slart> gvsa123: that would work
[13:53] <rhalff> kling0n, just the driver, I've rebuilded it with a normal kernel source then copied it to the xen module tree, but that didn't work either.
[13:53] <Flash> ikonia: uhm... it says something like root fs type unknown...
[13:53] <tupson> ikonia: if i am reading this correct, my default option is defoptions=quiet splash
[13:53] <soundray> kling0n: thanks. I will soon be running wine in a 64bit gutsy guest under vmware in Mac OS X :)
[13:53] <ikonia> tupson: try "vga=ask" added to the end of that line
[13:53] <tupson> what should i change that too
[13:53] <tupson> k
[13:53] <Flash> ikonia: and before that it says something like unknown sata controller bios is trying to work around it...
[13:53] <capiira> hmmm a shame that ubuntu gutsy still has gimp 2.4.0 rc3 in the repos tsss
[13:53] <ikonia> Flash: if it's installed then you know the controller will work.
[13:54] <tupson> so defoptions=quiet splash vga=ask like that?
[13:54] <ikonia> tupson: that looks good
[13:54] <Flash> ikonia: yeah... but this morning i installed it... and it booted the first time...
[13:54] <booncer> im using xubuntu i keep getting this --------------->bash: ./sc_trans_linux: cannot execute binary file
[13:54] <Flash> ikonia: after that it didn`t boot anymore
[13:54] <soundray> capiira: why is that a shame? It works very well
[13:54] <ikonia> booncer: chmod +x the file
[13:54] <booncer> tryed that no joy
[13:54] <undauntedspirit> I added  a hard drive with a NTFS file system after I installed ubuntu, but it makes me type in the (sudo) password to mount it, where other partitions are automatically mounting without a password, how can I change this?

[13:55] <ikonia> booncer: please run "file sc_trans_linux"
[13:55] <booncer> i tryed chmod 755 also
[13:55] <Flash> ikonia: i don`t think it`s a hardware issue cuz i can run windows on it perfectly

[14:00] <booncer> ah kk so ill give the mac stuff a go
[14:00] <Snow> did that
[14:00] <Snow> then?
[14:00] <ladynikon> anyone know how to update this?  it says its in some winbind package of the distro
[14:00] <Snow> -w "password"
[14:00] <ladynikon> but i never heard of it
[14:00] <ikonia> booncer: as a side note, you'll not get much to run
[14:00] <ikonia> Snow: -w ?
[14:00] <booncer> :/

[14:01] <ikonia> Snow: use the command I have given you
[14:01] <Snow> i did
[14:01] <ikonia> !samba | snow
[14:01] <ubotu> snow: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[14:01] <kling0n> rhalff: you could try editing the Makefile and set the SRC variable to the xen tree
[14:01] <undauntedspirit> ljl: Thanks anyway, it's an odd problem.
[14:01] <ikonia> Snow: actually it looks like you'll benifit from reading that info
[14:02] <Snow> when i did -a

[14:02] <ikonia> Snow: read the link ubotu sent you and it will walk you through from start to finish
[14:02] <LjL> undauntedspirit: i'd try removing "user", although it shouldn't imply "noauto" i think... but just a semirandom guess

[14:03] <Cyclopes> I have to rmmod and modprobe (with options) modules on my box everytime i boot, is there a way to automate this task?
[14:04] <Flash> ikonia: ok... look... now it stops saying: Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision 3.20
[14:04] <ikonia> Cyclopes: which modules
[14:04] <IgorSobreira> anybody knows the name of the program to access a pop3 server in command line? i've installed these days but i can't remember...
[14:04] <Cyclopes> ikonia: bttv
[14:04] <kling0n> Cyclopes: check out /etc/modprobe.d/
[14:04] <ikonia> Flash: is that the problem you where talking about earlier
[14:04] <LjL> ikonia, i just don't have a clue. i guess /media/DVD is just a name, and he seems to be saying that it *does* mount manually (although it requires root privileges), so i was assuming the UUID was correct
[14:04] <ikonia> IgorSobreira: I think mutt can
[14:04] <Flash> ikonia: one of them.,..
[14:05] <undauntedspirit> LjL:  Yup, exactly correct.
[14:05] <kling0n> rhalff: how did that go ?
[14:05] <ikonia> LjL: any mount is going to require root unless its setup as a user mount
[14:05] <LjL> ikonia: but the line does say "user". it also says "defaults" which, as far as i'm aware, implies "auto"
[14:05] <LjL> still it doesn't mount at boot
[14:05] <rhalff> kling0n, still trying
[14:05] <ikonia> LjL: umount it and do a mount -a see what happens
[14:06] <ikonia> LjL: or a "sudo mount -a" I should say

[14:06] <wam> Why does the nagios2 package depend on apache? This makes the whole package completely useless for me. I don't want apache and apache isn't required for nagios. Is there any reason why this isn't just a recommendation?

[14:07] <LjL> OsamaK: you can do that with the alternate CD, but not with the normal desktop CD
[14:07] <wam> ikonia: no - any webserver with cgi-support will do
[14:07] <ikonia> wam: that is true, but ubuntu has built against apache
[14:07] <chook> ok merci,sorry ;)

[14:07] <normie> can anyone please help me with installing my broadcom1390 wireless card. i tried all the manuals but it doesn;t help
[14:07] <undauntedspirit> ikonia: mount -a requires root.
[14:07] <ikonia> wam: a dependency is a webserver, ubuntu has chosen apache
[14:07] <OsamaK> ljL: What do you mean?
[14:07] <ubuntu-ss> hi i forget my root password
[14:07] <ikonia> undauntedspirit: thats root
[14:07] <roundyz> hello
[14:07] <ubuntu-ss> how can imake a new one
[14:07] <LjL> !alternate > OsamaK    (OsamaK, see the private message from Ubotu)
[14:07] <ikonia> ubuntu-ss: there is no root password
[14:07] <wam> ikonia: so it would be clever to depend on a virtual package, which any webserver provides.
[14:07] <Pici> !root | ubuntu-ss
[14:07] <ubotu> ubuntu-ss: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[14:08] <undauntedspirit> ikonia: I'm tring to say that if I mount it as root, it works fine, I need to mount it as a reqular user.
[14:08] <ikonia> wam: no, ubuntu is calling out "to use this you need apache"
[14:08] <roundyz> could someone define "a local operating system" and " a network operating system" for me please?
[14:08] <ubuntu-ss> no i want to to go to root prompt
[14:08] <wam> ikonia: right - i consider this a bug.
[14:08] <ikonia> undauntedspirit: just humour me, do a sudo mount -a
[14:08] <kling0n> ubuntu-ss: in grub, press 'e' and append 'single' to the kernel options
[14:08] <Flash> ikonia: NFORCE-MCP67: BIOS didn`t set cable bits correctly.Enabling work around.

[14:08] <wam> ikonia: apache as a requirement is bullshit. As would gnome for xchat be.

[14:08] <undauntedspirit> ikonia: No errors - mounts fine.
[14:08] <OsamaK> LjL, may I talk with you in a privet chat, this channel is spamming me!
[14:08] <NET||abuse> it hasn't been 3.2 since a good while now
[14:08] <ikonia> wam: there is no need for that language
[14:09] <Pici> !language | wam
[14:09] <ubotu> wam: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[14:09] <LjL> ubuntu-ss: no. it's much safer to use "sudo" in front of the single commands you need root for. but if you need a root shell, like "su" gives you, you can always "sudo -i".
[14:09] <wam> wtf?
[14:09] <ikonia> wam: ubuntu choses the "prefered" dependencies, apache is a fine choice
[14:09] <normie> anyone please/
[14:09] <ikonia> wam: there is no need for offensive language

[14:09] <ikonia> undauntedspirit: ok, thank you
[14:09] <wam> ikonia: offensive?
[14:09] <Pici> !anyone | normie
[14:09] <ubotu> normie: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[14:09] <ikonia> wam: bad language and bad lanaguage abbrieviations
[14:09] <wam> ikonia: I didn't argue - I just say that this decision is stupid.
[14:09] <ikonia> wam: thats your opinion
[14:10] <LjL> OsamaK, it's easy really: the standard Ubuntu CD, called the "Desktop CD", can't be used to upgrade. If you want to upgrade via CD, you need the "Alternate CD", which Ubotu sent you information about. Otherwise, upgrade from the Internet.

[14:10] <wols> wam: it doesn't want apache. it wants apache2 or a httpd
[14:10] <ikonia> PriceChild: right, thats perfact
[14:10] <PriceChild> ikonia, wam, ie either will satisfy it, but apache2 is chosen first.
[14:10] <PriceChild> wam, you can see this from "apt-cache show nagios2-common"
[14:10] <ubuntu-ss> thanx sudo -i works
[14:10] <kling0n> normie: sis you remember to install the firmware for ndiswrapper to use?
[14:11] <wam> PraiseChaos: let me check this
[14:11] <LjL> ubuntu-ss: i urge you to use it sparingly however. getting used to prefix "sudo" to *only* the commands that require it is a much better practice.

[14:12] <normie> kitofhawaii i tried that manual as well i have a hp dv6225us laptop
[14:13] <wam> PriceChild: sorry ;) Thanks anyway
[14:13] <LjL> kling0n: everything can be a problem if misconfigured. using the default configuration that comes with Ubuntu is often a good way to avoid misconfiguring it.
[14:13] <ikonia> undauntedspirit: LjL got it :)
[14:13] <Snow> ikonia, mind helping me? i dont really understand this
[14:14] <kitofhawaii> normie: you did blacklist the native driver? (just to confirm)
[14:14] <rhalff> kling0n, it compiles against the normal tree of 2.6.22-14, will reboot.
[14:14] <tupson> ikonia: that did nothing
[14:14] <kling0n> LjL: i wouldn't use an unmodified setup of ubuntu for multiuser... I agree that defaults for single user is sane
[14:14] <ikonia> LjL: undauntedspirit: the "defaults" option sets "rw" ntfs driver does not support "read write" you need "user ro"
[14:14] <ikonia> Snow: what part is not clear
[14:14] <Snow> when i write smbpasswd -a "tommy" i get :"
[14:14] <Snow> dennis@dennis-desktop:~$ smbpasswd -a "tommy"
[14:14] <Snow> When run by root:
[14:14] <Snow>     smbpasswd [options] [username]
[14:14] <Snow> otherwise:
[14:14] <Snow>     smbpasswd [options]"
[14:14] <ikonia> tupson: when you boot it doesn't ask
[14:14] <LjL> !paste > Snow    (Snow, see the private message from Ubotu)
[14:14] <ikonia> Snow: drop the " marks and read the guide I sent you
[14:14] <LjL> ikonia, undauntedspirit seems to have left... but, i see. but didn't Gutsy support ntfs rw out of the box now?
[14:14] <tupson> nope, just sits at a black screen again, until the login screen appears 10mins later
[14:15] <ikonia> LjL: the driver is ntfs-3g not ntfs for read write
[14:15] <soundray> kling0n: what's the problem with a "unmodified multiuser setup"?
[14:15] <kling0n> LjL: ikonia ntfs-3g is a good alternative for rw access
[14:15] <ubuntu-ss> thanx for help guys
[14:15] <Snow> yeah, well, i dident really understand what the guide told me...
[14:15] <kling0n> soundray: well.. I 'd restrict access to sudo
[14:15] <LjL> ikonia: right... he had said that the fstab line is "just like the other ntfs lines he has", but i guess that's not entirely accurate.
[14:16] <ikonia> LjL: so ntfs-3f user default would work or, ntfs user ro
[14:16] <soundray> kling0n: it is restricted by default. Only members of admin can use it.
[14:16] <ikonia> LjL: yup
[14:16] <ikonia> LjL: dissapointed he's gone,
[14:16] <kling0n> soundray: and probably limit the commands to specifics... but much more likely remove sudo and use "su root" in stead
[14:16] <kling0n> soundray: if nothing ese to reduce number of attack vectors
[14:16] <kling0n> *else
[14:16] <kitofhawaii> Snow: if you do simply "sudo smbpasswd" do you get the option to type in the new password?
[14:16] <kling0n> soundray: just my opinion though
[14:16] <kling0n> :)
[14:17] <ikonia> kitofhawaii: I don't think he's set samba up at all yet, which is why I've pointed him at an excellent guide
[14:17] <soundray> kling0n: enabling root does the exact opposite, though -- it increases the chances of an attack.
[14:17] <kitofhawaii> Snow: as well, to confirm, you've shared out the folder from system -> administration -> shared folders ?
[14:17] <Dregin> is there any way to install ALSA from scratch? I compiled alsa-driver from source trying to get my mic input working and everything is dead
[14:17] <Dregin> when I run alsamixer it just hangs
[14:17] <peak> #ubuntu-cn
[14:17] <soundray> *of a successful attack
[14:17] <kitofhawaii> ikonia: aye...getting there :) there's a method to my madness :)
[14:17] <kling0n> soundray: root should never be allowed to login
[14:18] <soundray> kling0n: su root does exactly that, though
[14:18] <Flash> ikonia: ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/212d4353d-342534r3-45rtef3-756yh67ut bla bla does not exist. Dropping to a shell.
[14:18] <_blitz_> i cant use any chat program.plz help.it just cannot connect.it connects only once pe once after a fresh install
[14:19] <riotosaurus> once per once?
[14:19] <ikonia> Flash: thats very interesting
[14:19] <normie> i got i to work with opensuse 10.2 but after i reboot my laptop it hangs
[14:19] <tupson> ikonia: you sure i am not suppose to change defoptions=quiet splash to this defoptions=vga=ask
[14:19] <kling0n> soundray: what do you mean? I can disable remote logins for root and restrict execute priviledge on the su binary
[14:19] <ikonia> tupson: no, just "vga=ask" added to what was already there
[14:19] <_blitz_> sorry once after an install
[14:19] <kling0n> soundray: how would that increase chances of attack ?
[14:19] <pike_> i think the ubuntu or bsd way of obfuscating root authority a bit with an admin or wheel group is best
[14:20] <Snow> is "sharename" the name of my computer or the folder im sharing?
[14:20] <riotosaurus> _blitz_: that sounds terribly bizarre. which programs in particular? can you access the internet?
[14:20] <ikonia> Snow: the name you want to connect to as a folder
[14:20] <Flash> ikonia: no it`s kind of annoing...
[14:20] <tupson> but if quiet splash is still on the line, wouldn't that supersede asking?
[14:20] <ikonia> tupson: no
[14:20] <kitofhawaii> Snow: the name of the share (i.e. \\mycomputer\sharename)
[14:20] <Dregin> can anyone help me with ALSA driver problems?
[14:21] <tupson> well this is what the line looks like
[14:21] <tupson> # defoptions=quiet splash vga=ask
[14:21] <tupson> and it didn't work
[14:21] <kling0n> pike_: theres a major difference between allowing sudo or not though.... I still fail to see how sudo can change anything in a major way... especially unconfigured
[14:21] <capiira> soundray, its a shame because it came just a few days after the release and this is a very important application in the linux world
[14:21] <tupson> am i suppose to uncomment it?
[14:21] <soundray> kling0n: if you want to do all that, then right, your setup is more or less equally secure to a default Ubuntu one. For the price of some work.
[14:21] <ikonia> tupson: uncomment what ?
[14:21] <tupson> the line reads
[14:21] <tupson> # defoptions=quiet splash vga=ask
[14:21] <_blitz_> riotosaurus: all chat programs like konversation pidgin andd even chatzilla.i can connect to internet without any probs
[14:21] <tupson> doesn't the # comment it out
[14:21] <soundray> capiira: do you know what the difference is between rc3 and the released version?
[14:21] <capiira> yeah a hand full of bugs
[14:22] <soundray> capiira: any security related ones?
[14:22] <ikonia> tupson: you've edited the wrong line
[14:22] <thor> tupson: there are two locations for that in menu.lst...the first looks commented, but is the default values that will be added when a new kernel is installed
[14:22] <ikonia> tupson: the line should look like this
[14:22] <riotosaurus> _blitz_: sorry, i have no idea what's going on  :T
[14:22] <kling0n> soundray: wouldn't you agree that having sudo+su=2 vectors while su=1 vector ?
[14:22] <ikonia> tupson: kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=da689828-6c2f-4c94-a9dd-764bf8f9f31a ro quiet splash vga=ask
[14:22] <ikonia> tupson: with your own uuid and kernel version
[14:22] <capiira> no security but usability
[14:22] <kling0n> rhalff: how did the boot go ?
[14:22] <thor> tupson: the second is the kernel line that is booted...and there you will have to add the options yourself for existing kernels...new kernels will get that info from the other line
[14:22] <_blitz_> riotosaurus : ok :(
[14:23] <tupson> ahh i see
[14:23] <tupson> ok, let me try that
[14:23] <tupson> brb
[14:23] <soundray> kling0n: I would. That's why I prefer sudo+(no su)=1 vector
[14:23] <normie> kitofhawaii if i try the restricted driver option, my light turn blue for 10 sec and then turn orange again
[14:23] <kling0n> soundray: fair enugh
[14:23] <kling0n> *enough
[14:23] <rhalff> kling0n, I'm further in the boot process then before but it still hangs. will google for more answers.
[14:25] <kling0n> soundray: now I can't remember whether su was on my system per default but it is definitely there atm :) and I think I have a default setup in that regard
[14:25] <kitofhawaii> normie: ok..."iwconfig" at terminal show it?
[14:25] <soundray> capiira: it would have been against policy to update it after release, then. Maybe it's in the backports -- have you checked?
[14:25] <kling0n> rhalff: *nod
[14:25] <_blitz_> can anyone suggest a p2p client in ubuntu which is very user friendly.not something that asks me for metafiles straightaway after i open it.with nice gui
[14:25] <capiira> soundray, yeah maybe but then their so called bug #1 will never be fixed
[14:25] <soundray> kling0n: you do. But it isn't a vector for root if there is a locked root account with no password
[14:26] <kitofhawaii> normie: have you tried using iwconfig to manually connect? also is this wep 64/128?
[14:26] <soundray> capiira: your argument is a classical non sequitur
[14:26] <pike_> _blitz_: well i still like amule for the edonkey network but you might try frostwire though it is java so youll need to apt-get the sun jre
[14:26] <kling0n> soundray: agreed
[14:26] <smcintyre> !grub

[14:26] <rhalff> kling0n, sr:0:0:0:0 attached scsi generic sg0 type 5 is the last message, before that the 3w-9xxx driver loads complaining about the version of symbol_struct_module, but that should be the problem I guess.
[14:27] <Snow> i dont get this really
[14:27] <pike_> _blitz_: when i setup one on a friends computer its usually frostwire or lime and then a decent torrent client like ktorrent or deluge or utorrent+wine
[14:27] <kitofhawaii> Snow: where are we at, at this point...
[14:27] <kling0n> rhalff: hmm try compiling the xen kernel as well
[14:27] <normie> kitofhawaii can you pm me so i can paste the output
[14:27] <Snow> when im in my terminal and i get sudo, password for name
[14:28] <Snow> i try to write and nothing happens
[14:28] <abhi> i am having weird issues after i got compiz working on gutsy on an x3100 using the work arounds suggested
[14:28] <kitofhawaii> normie: pastebin it
[14:28] <kitofhawaii> normie: if you wouldn't mind :)
[14:28] <normie> pastebin?
[14:28] <abhi> the window titlebars get put behind the gnome panel
[14:28] <abhi> any work arounds?
[14:28] <kitofhawaii> Snow: nothing should happen...you type and it doesn't show *****, it just shows a cursor
[14:28] <_blitz_> pike : utorrent + wine works?
[14:28] <rhalff> kling0n, that was the problem, I don't have that source, but I think I will just build an entire custom kernel then, ftp.kernel.org and install xen from xen-source at least I have my sources then.
[14:29] <kling0n> rhalff: sound like a plan
[14:29] <soundray> kling0n: thanks for your ies4linux recommendation. I'm having a bit of trouble with it. It sets up an extra drive_c -- I've tried to merge them but the Reader installer still doesn't see IE
[14:29] <kling0n> rhalff: remember to update-initramfs and gub
[14:29] <kling0n> grub
[14:29] <kitofhawaii> normie: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[14:29] <kling0n> soundray: yeah i usually softlink my .wine to .ies4linux
[14:30] <kling0n> soundray: sorry i forgot to mention it
[14:30] <normie> kitofhawaii  http://pastebin.com/dda453c9
[14:30] <kitofhawaii> Snow: so where are we at? did you complete the "shared folder" step?
[14:30] <capiira> soundray, this attitude of applications bounded to distro releases just sucks, sorry but thats so inflexible.
[14:30] <kling0n> soundray: you will need to merge all the registry files in .wine with the ones from .ies4linux
[14:30] <EoleO><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:30] <EoleO> merde
[14:31] <rhalff> kling0n, yes did that, although not at the first time.. :)
[14:31]  * kling0n pulls out the spamcannon and aims at EoleO
[14:31] <kitofhawaii> normie: would you mind pastebinning the output of iwconfig instead?
[14:31] <corporal_clegg> hello, could someone tell me a name of a good video-podcast-reader that is not miro?
[14:31] <soundray> capiira: it's the strategy of choice for Ubuntu for tackling bug #1, though. If you don't like it, there are plenty of distributions that let you live on the cutting edge more. Try Debian Sid.
[14:31] <hacked_kernel> Can I make a user that can't run all bash commands unless what I'm specifying to that user?
[14:32] <kitofhawaii> Snow: are you still there?
[14:32] <kling0n> hacked_kernel: i think you'll need to install a restricted shell for that
[14:32] <NET||abuse> how can i switch my 2 button external mouse to 3 button simulated without rebooting X?
[14:32] <kling0n> hacked_kernel: or you can chroot the users
[14:33] <pike_> hacked_kernel: or just chmod 700 $(which bash)  ;p
[14:33] <soundray> hacked_kernel: what specifically are you worried about?
[14:33] <tyler_2> looking to get a hand with some cisco vpn schtuff... more specifically, rdp through a cisco vpn as well as doing a windows tunnel, then using the windows tunnel to cisco... :) ??
[14:33] <Snow> yeah im hero kito
[14:34] <kitofhawaii> tyler_2: do you have access to the cisco vpn client?
[14:34] <kitofhawaii> Snow: ok...did you share the folder through the shared folders tool?
[14:34] <normie> kitofhawaii did you see it/
[14:34] <Snow> yeah i did
[14:34] <tyler_2> ummm
[14:35] <tyler_2> for windows yah
[14:35] <kitofhawaii> normie: the link you gave was ifconfig output, but not iwconfig
[14:35] <Snow> its strange, when i wrote smbpasswd -a name i dont get asked about a new password, i just get alott of options
[14:35] <kitofhawaii> Snow: ok, in terminal, "sudo smbpasswd" ... just that
[14:35] <hacked_kernel> soundray: I'll give ssh access to people i'm hosting their web site and i want those user  not to play with my server even run "free" or "top" commads
[14:35] <pike_> tyler_2: so wait you want to run vpnc in linux to rdp to a win box then run windows cisco client on that box to vpn no another box?
[14:35] <kitofhawaii> Snow: try just that, no username or anything...just the part in the quotes
[14:35] <Snow> yeah, did that, asked about a new passwd
[14:36] <Snow> wrote a new passwd
[14:36] <normie> kitofhawaii http://pastebin.com/d104be34f
[14:36] <profanephobia> whenever i try searching in the address bar my searches are forwarded to (http://www33.not-found-entry.org/search?qo=) without my permission.. in about:config the value for address bar searches is set to google.. this happens in every browser i use, (Konq. FF and epiphany)
[14:36] <kitofhawaii> tyler_2: i suggest highly you get the linux vpn client from a tech person at the office you are attempting to connect, since it will be them that will support it
[14:36] <tyler_2> no no.. pike: I want to tunnel using a window server, then cisco ,then rdp
[14:36] <tyler_2> kitofhawaii: thats so weak but ty
[14:37] <kitofhawaii> tyler_2: it's honestly the best...vpnc in my opinion is buggy...but that's me. i use the cisco vpn client
[14:37] <Snow> what after sudo smbpasswd
[14:37] <pike_> tyler_2: you cant just use vpnc?  it is pretty easy after you know your pass and such to use
[14:38] <tyler_2> once I connect to the cisco right now, the rdp session won't connect...
[14:38] <pike_> personally i use vpnc and rdesktop in ubuntu almost every day since im on call 24x7 i havent had a problem yet *crosses fingers*
[14:38] <tyler_2> tunnelling issue b/c It will connect on the win box right next to it
[14:38] <kitofhawaii> Snow: ok, now go over to the windows box, and try to connect \\<yourlinuxipaddress>\<thesharenameyougave>
[14:38] <tyler_2> and the cisco network is solid on both
[14:38] <kitofhawaii> Snow: use the username "guest" and password the one you just typed in
[14:38] <Snow> cant connect
[14:38] <soundray> hacked_kernel: so you need a bit of a kiosk-like configuration. I think I would add myself to the root group and chmod all programs on the path o-x. Then o+x the ones you do want to allow access to
[14:38] <normie> kitofhawaii did you see it
[14:39] <kling0n> snow did you enable the user?
[14:39] <kling0n> Snow: sudo smbpasswd -e username
[14:39] <kitofhawaii> normie: that driver didn't work...or you might need to reboot, since no wireless extensions were shown
[14:39] <normie> i know i get that when i blacklist bcm43xx
[14:39] <pike_> tyler_2: for tunneling id just use ssh if for some reason you need too but i actually prefer the linux vpn and rdesktop to the windows tools
[14:39] <Snow> Failed to modify password entry for user guest
[14:39] <soundray> hacked_kernel: I've never tried this, though. It's dangerous to play with permissions. Have a backup.

[14:40] <naelr> I have 2.6.22 but I need 2.6.20

I am currently running ubuntu on an HP dv9420us laptop, and i have it mostly stable, but every time i attempt to put the system into either hibernate or sleep mode, i get a bright red screen and the system hangs. Could someone please tell me how to fix this?
[14:40] <tyler_2> pike: vpnc
[14:40] <naelr> brobostigon: why what?
[14:40] <kitofhawaii> tyler_2: are you able to ping the windows server?
[14:41] <brobostigon> why downgrade to an older kernel??
[14:41] <dmacnutt> naelr: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=311158&highlight=master+kernel
[14:41] <naelr> because the 2.6.22 will not boot...
[14:41] <naelr> this laptop is crazy
[14:41] <kitofhawaii> normie: i'm a bit confused about that, what do you get?
[14:41] <Snow> ok, when the termnial says that it fails to modify the password for the user guest, what do i do then?
[14:41] <brobostigon> so its not a problem with you boot manager??
[14:42] <kitofhawaii> Snow: when you tried to connect, you used your linux box's IP address right?
[14:42] <Snow> no wrote the computer name
[14:42] <Snow> open run on the windows
[14:42] <kitofhawaii> Snow: try the ip address instead

[14:43] <kitofhawaii> normie: ok...what's the name of the restricted driver you just installed?
[14:43] <kitofhawaii> Snow: internal
[14:43] <soundray> arialth: with trouble like that, you have to play with the settings a bit. Look at the video state options in /etc/default/acpi-support
[14:44] <soundray> arialth: did you install the binary nvidia driver?
[14:44] <kitofhawaii> Snow: on the linux box, "ifconfig eth0", use the IP address from that...this is a test
[14:44] <dmacnutt> naelr: you won't find an official 2.6.20 .deb kernel for gutsy
[14:44] <arialth> soundray: i have the nvidia drivers enabled in the restricted drivers manager...
[14:44] <dmacnutt> naelr: just rebuild it's fairly easy, just takes a bit of time depending on the machine
