[08:33] <Orkibo> Grub2 causes a problem?
[08:33] <home_> Skype issue. I changed the theme so i can read the menu within skype, but when hovering over a name the text box is white with yellow background. Anyone with the same problem or knows how to fix it?
[08:33] <blitzer320> grub2 is harder to configure than the original
[08:33] <blackrock> Where's the symbols directory of X11?
[08:33] <Veroi> I'm a windows vista user, and I'd like to install Ubuntu 10.04 onto my flashdrive, as a full copy of Ubuntu, rather than a live USB
[08:33] <mtx_init> Orkibo: No, not really, running grub-update will auto make your menu.lst, so you dont have to do it manually
[08:33] <Veroi> Could someone assist me with this task?
[08:34] <_jesse_> Veroi: make a live usb and you can install from that
[08:34] <Veroi> I have a live CD
[08:34] <jacko> hey, does anyone know what the purpose of the [flush-1:0] (and it goes onward) processes that show up in my ps output are? I'm running Ubuntu 10.04, and don't have fdflush installed
[08:34] <_jesse_> Veroi: then boot it up and install :)
[08:34] <Kartagis> does a streaming server supporting rhythmbox exist?
[08:35] <Veroi> I simply install it using the flashdrive as my destination?
[08:35] <Orkibo> I shall stick with the LiveCDs for now I think...that sounds complicated and slightly dangerous, I will also have to learn how to shrink and partition my ubuntu volume first too
[08:35] <TheJ3ckyl> mtx_init, isn't is update-grub ??
[08:35] <_jesse_> Veroi: oh you want to install *to* the usb drive?
[08:35] <Veroi> Yes
[08:35] <Orkibo> I have never dual-booted with Ubuntu installed first
[08:35] <Orkibo> it's always been WinXP first, then Ubuntu when I have done it before

[09:36] <lovekiller> c is a good man
[09:36] <lovekiller> rcsheets
[09:36] <rcsheets`> lovekiller: please keep the discussion relevant to ubuntu
[09:37] <AdvoWork> how come i get: ln: creating symbolic link `/home/NEWcompleted/NEWcompleted' to `/var/www/dev/intranet/completed/NEW/': File exists  so i want a folder called NEW in /var/www/dev/intranet/complete to point to /home/NEWcompleted/NEWcompleted
[09:37] <lovekiller> OK
[09:37] <rcsheets`> AdvoWork: how are you calling ln?
[09:37]  * iflema the logs are GMT+1 are they not?
[09:38] <AdvoWork> rcsheets`, just ln -s
[09:38] <rcsheets`> AdvoWork: you must be providing at least one other parameter
[09:39] <AdvoWork> rcsheets`, im passing:  ln -s /var/www/development/intranet/completed_artwork_images/NEWcompleted_artwork /home/NEWcompleted_artwork
[09:39] <AdvoWork> and it just says file exists
[09:39] <gabriel_> Hey all. how can I "tar" my results of the "find / -name "*.conf" using pipes? example please...
[09:39] <AdvoWork> now /home/NEWcompleted_artwork contains all my files
[09:39] <rcsheets`> then there's already something at /home/NEWcompleted_artwork
[09:40] <geirha> AdvoWork: You got the arguments the wrong way around if I understand correctly
[09:40] <AdvoWork> ahhh
[09:40] <joshua__> just installed Ubuntu; so much better than the old school beige version
[09:40] <rcsheets`> the order for ln is just like for cp
[09:41] <AdvoWork> yeah thanks for the help guys sorted
[09:42] <geirha> gabriel_: find / -name "*.conf" -print0 | tar --null --files-from=- -czvf archive.tar.gz  # Only works with GNU tar
[09:43] <geirha> gabriel_: But GNU tar is the one installed in Ubuntu, so you should be fine ;)
[09:43] <gabriel_> geirha, what's the  " -print0 " for???
[09:44] <gabriel_> geirha, thanks m8
[09:44] <geirha> gabriel_: Separates the filenames with \0 instead of \n. Pathnames may contain any character (including \n) except for \0. You need the corresponding --null option to tar.

[10:10] <phanindra> erUSUK: i have mounted my windows drives to /mnt
[10:10] <erUSUL> phanindra: so the real error is that you do not have the volume icons in the desktop ?

[10:10] <BlackDalek> Is anyone here familiar with those prepaid internet usb modems? like the ones sold by telstra bigpond in Australia? Does anyone know how they work? Is the USB stick itself a self contained modem that will connect to the internet regardless of the OS on the host computer, or would it require special software running on Windoze or Mac in order to work? Would one work if I plugged it into a linux OS computer?
[10:11] <phanindra> i have edited /etc/fstab and set the details over the last lines
[10:11] <erUSUL> blink: what app? lvmp ? do not think so. it looks like a ubuntu app but i never used it....
[10:11] <kevinSJ> When you installed Ubuntu you had a folder called music in your home folder. How do I get the folder icon used by that?
[10:11] <phanindra> when i open it from the other user login its worling properly
[10:11] <phanindra> when i open it from the other user login its working properly
[10:12] <erUSUL> BlackDalek: many 3g modems are supported by linux check NetworkManager section for them
[10:13] <erUSUL> BlackDalek: usually searching google "modem model + ubuntu/linux" helps
[10:13] <phanindra> erUSUL:the problem is that when i try to open /mnt its not getting opened, and all the icon on the desktop were disappearing
[10:14] <erUSUL> phanindra: maybe you disabled that function? alt + f2 run gconf-editor apps>nautilus>desktop is volumes_visible ticked ?
[10:15] <qbitza> Any idea why ldapsearch will work but ldapmodifyuser fails with "ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)"

[10:25] <brijithmac> Hi everybody How can I restart samba server in lucid ?
[10:25] <phanindra> erUSUL:so..:(. what to do?
[10:25] <ikonia> brijithmac: no they don't
[10:25] <ikonia> brijithmac: you restart samba by using the init script for the samba service, as listed in thos documents
[10:26] <astropirate> does anyone know of a method or a tool for "passive" debugging? it was quite easy on windows but on Linux the only support I  was able to found was ptrace() and that interrupts the normal operations of the process. So, I was hoping there was another option? I basically need an alternative to ptrace()
[10:26] <brijithmac> ikonia: in my previous linux installation it was /etc/init.d/samba restart
[10:26] <erUSUL> astropirate: what do you want to debug ?
[10:26] <kevinSJ> iflema, What do you mean?
[10:26] <ikonia> bimberi: ok - so look for the samba script in /etc/init.d for ubuntu
[10:26] <brijithmac> ikonia: but when I installed lucid I cann't see anything like that
[10:27] <erUSUL> phanindra: researching a little. be patient
[10:27] <iflema> kevinSJ what was your question?
[10:27] <ikonia> brijithmac: have you installed samba
[10:27] <brijithmac> yes
[10:27] <brijithmac> ikonia: yes
[10:27] <phanindra> erUSUL: :) thank you., i will be waiting

[10:28] <ikonia> brijithmac: what package did you install for samba
[10:28] <erUSUL> astropirate: buit what things about the process you want to know?
[10:28] <astropirate> memory information read/write access
[10:29] <erUSUL> blink: as i said. i've never used the tool you have to find a how to or someone who has used it sorry

[10:29] <erUSUL> astropirate: « strace program » ?
[10:29] <astropirate> erUSUL: basically same functionality of ptrace() except sending the SIGSTOP signal to the process
[10:30] <kevinSJ> iflema, Never mind :)
[10:30] <erUSUL> astropirate: use gdb ? systemtap ?
[10:30] <astropirate> they use ptrace

[10:48] <terrid> hi all
[10:48] <terrid> I'm having a slight problem getting dual monitors working
[10:49] <JediMaster> phase_, nvidia hd audio, but never mind, I've re-arranged the audio devices and also noticed that every output is muted for some weird reason (I didn't mute them!)

[10:54] <DiploCat> erUSUL, yeah, I'm seriously confused :\

[10:55] <TuxSax> DiploCat: try grep -iRl "word" ./*
[10:55] <astropirate> does ubuntu support   proc/[PID]/mem ?  the file is there  but the contents of it is empty. This is so for every PID that I tried
[10:55] <brijithmac> ikonia:hence in init.d I can see smbd, the script you mentioned and samba4
[10:55] <brijithmac> do I need both
[10:56] <ikonia> brijithmac: check the scripts out
[10:56] <phanindra> erUSUL: I have fixed my problem
[10:57] <erUSUL> phanindra: congrats. may i ask how ?
[10:58] <DiploCat> TuxSax, no good :( - but I've realised when I drill down to a directory holding files, it works... it's only when there's subfolders :?
[10:58] <TuxSax> DiploCat: it works for me here
[10:59] <TuxSax> I always used it as I told you and never had problems
[10:59] <TuxSax> not even when it has to drill down to subdirs
[10:59] <dustin> i need help,please?
[10:59] <TuxSax> can it be that you don't have enough permissions?
[10:59] <phanindra> erUSUL:I googled for "Initializing nautilus-gdu extension", from there i redirected to "http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1384038" using the command given ther i.e"rm -rf ~/.local/share/gvfs-metadata", then i rebooted my machine. the problem was fixed

[11:01] <laserbeam> Filezila
[11:01] <DiploCat> TuxSax, no, it's not that... and I know it *should* work... it prints to stdout, so I can't understand why anything changes when writing to a file...
[11:01] <GutZuWiSSeN> hmm okaaay^^
[11:01] <phanindra> its you who told me to run nautilus /mnt , because of which i could fix it. Thank you for for that
[11:01] <dustin> shut bot, please? its been a fusterating day
[11:01] <phanindra> erUSUL:its you who told me to run nautilus /mnt , because of which i could fix it. Thank you for for that
[11:01] <TuxSax> DiploCat: Mmm, I see, so to stdout it does work, lemme check then what can be the reason
[11:02] <erUSUL> DiploCat: use "> file 2>&1" maybe it is going somehow to stderr ?
[11:02] <dustin> soreau, are you talking to me?
[11:02] <erUSUL> phanindra: no problem
[11:02] <TuxSax> DiploCat: do you want a file list or the full path of each file too?
[11:02] <phanindra> erUSUL: I am signing off. see u
[11:02] <dustin> bye
[11:02] <soreau> dustin: no one can help you if you don't ask your question
[11:02] <erUSUL> phanindra: ciao
[11:03] <phanindra> may i ask what is ciao?
[11:03] <DiploCat> TuxSax, a file list, preferably with full path (or relative path)
[11:03] <soreau> phanindra: It's italian, google it
[11:04] <DiploCat> erUSUL, no dice :\
[11:04] <Shootfast> DiploCat, what happens if you use: grep -irl "word" ./ | tee outfile.txt
[11:05] <phanindra> soreau: thank you. I got the meaning, its "bye"
[11:05] <DiploCat> Shootfast, same thing!
[11:06] <soreau> indeed
[11:06] <soreau> DiploCat: worksforme here
[11:07] <soreau> DiploCat: Do you have write access to the directory you're trying to write the file in?
[11:07] <TuxSax> DiploCat: try also echo `grep -irl "word" ./*` >> outfile.txt
[11:08] <TuxSax> DiploCat: soreau may be right about that too
[11:08] <bloink> hi. i
[11:08] <bloink> i
[11:08] <TuxSax> that's why I suggested to try with sudo too
[11:08] <soreau> Sounds like permissions to me
[11:08] <DiploCat> permissions seem fine, but I'll try sudo to be sure
[11:08] <bloink> im having massive problems with pulseaudio... at the moment it uses 100% cpu when playing music
[11:09] <soreau> lol
[11:09] <TuxSax> I'm out for lunch, see ya later
[11:09] <bloink> any hints?
[11:09] <soreau> DiploCat: Using sudo at random is not a good way to test permissions
[11:09] <soreau> DiploCat: Use ls -l
[11:09] <DiploCat> hmm, still doesn't work
[11:09] <DiploCat> permissions are fine
[11:09] <soreau> ! pulseaudio | bloink
[11:09] <Shootfast> is it a read only filesystem?
[11:09] <DiploCat> I think it's something to do with the file's encoding
[11:10] <soreau> DiploCat: Which directory is it?
[11:10] <DiploCat> it's all in my home dir
[11:10] <DiploCat> and it works when I grep a file specifically
[11:10] <soreau> DiploCat: Create a dummy test file with some 'string' then try again. It should work

[11:32] <the-erm> Anyone know how to adjust the speed of the volume when you press up/down in gnome?
[11:32] <soreau> Veroi: you could try disabling compiz to see if it's your drivers getting confused.. did this happen after an update?
[11:32] <soreau> meowbuntu: Have fun with that then
[11:32] <dustin>  VEROI,hey get a  better copy,
[11:32] <Veroi> Mm, Im a first time user
[11:32] <robertzaccour> how do i use recordMyDesktop and make it not encode? I don't see that in the options
[11:32] <the-erm> I can use aumix, but it'd be kinda nice to have the notification show up.
[11:32] <raist1313> A first time Ubuntu user or first time here?
[11:32] <Veroi> Ill try disabling compiz from the comand line I guess
[11:32] <soreau> the-erm: Isn't it the same as your keyboard repeat rate?
[11:32] <Veroi> First time Linux user in general
[11:33] <soreau> Veroi: Is this on a live cd then?
[11:33] <the-erm> soreau: I don't think so.  It's doing a +7 maybe even a +10
[11:33] <meowbuntu> soreau: glxinfo | grep renderer X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) Major opcode of failed request:  135 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request:  19 (X_GLXQueryServerString) Serial number of failed request:  16 Current serial number in output stream:  16
[11:33] <Veroi> I installed Ubuntu from a liveCD
[11:33] <the-erm> I'd like to be +2 maybe +3
[11:33] <soreau> meowbuntu: Looks like he tried to or has fglrx installed but it failed. pastein /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:33] <dustin> shootfast,mm is there anyway you can kkep explaining
[11:33] <the-erm> I guess I could check.
[11:33] <Veroi> I boot up like it should, get to a log in menu (All GUI), log in and it goes blank
[11:34] <Shootfast> dustin, what are you trying to do?
[11:34] <raist1313> what version are you trying to install or did I miss that already?
[11:34] <dustin> soreau,thanks mm help me as much as you guy want cuz im going to need to
[11:36] <the-erm> Oh well no big deal aumix works.
[11:36] <the-erm> I guess I'll catch you later.
[11:36] <meowbuntu> soreau: he did have a nvidia card in before but he upgraded to the ati one so he may need to reconfigure /etc/X11/xorg.conf <- that nvidia left behind  not sure though
[11:36] <soreau> meowbuntu: According to the radeon gpu comparison chart wiki page, that card is an x800 which cannot use fglrx/catalyst/proprietary drivers. Instead you have to remove them and use the open radeon driver that should have already been working in the first place
[11:38] <soreau> meowbuntu: Get rid of xorg.conf since X will select radeon by default
[11:38] <theduke> hi guys, I have a problem after setting up a new router... Windows boxes on the network work fine, but my ubuntu server hast really low download speeds
[11:38] <weeman> hi can anyone recommend graphics card that plays HD bluray and offloads cpu. My Asus  HD 5450 no use in linux 100cpu stutters with anything HD bluray.
[11:39] <theduke> I've already tried setting the proper mtu ( found the value using ping )
[11:39] <raist1313> Have you tried madwifi yet?
[11:39] <theduke> but it didn't help
[11:39] <dustin> im trying to setup a  connetion from this computer (friends house) to my house,if possble a small network over the internet (less then 5-10computers)
[11:39] <soreau> raist1313: madwifi has been out of date in favor of the ath*k drivers for over a year or more at least now
[11:40] <meowbuntu> soreau: here is teh  pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log <-  http://pastebin.com/UrMadhYb
[11:40] <soreau> dustin: You're going to have to do some reading. Ask in #networking perhaps
[11:41] <soreau> meowbuntu: That's even worse because it looks like he has 9.10 still
[11:41] <wrektjet> k thnx red2kic just confirming i wasnt crazy. i found the prob once i knew it was supposed to be an asterisk reff-ing to all deb packages. something in the build was missing but all is working now
[11:41] <soreau> meowbuntu: Nevertheless, he still has to completely get rid of fglrx using the method used to install it and reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx and libgl1-mesa-dri packages then reboot and it should work
[11:42] <smv> anyone using lxc?
[11:42] <soreau> meowbuntu: But it should work better with 10.04 and even newer kernel
[11:42] <raist1313> what's  wrong with 9.10?
[11:42] <robertzaccour> how do i use recordMyDesktop and make it not encode? I don't see that in the options
[11:42] <soreau> raist1313: It has old kernel and radeon drivers
[11:43] <soreau> by way of comparison to the continuous work that has been done for the radeon driver
[11:44] <dustin> no ones home
[11:44] <soreau> dustin: patience.
[11:45] <soreau> also asking the right way with proper detail level on exactly what it is you're trying to do is quite helpful
[11:45] <dustin> well i have all day!
[11:45] <Kartagis> is it possible to broadcast with rhythmbox?
[11:46] <leifmadsen> hey all, I have an ubuntu 9.10 server and I'm new to Upstart. I'm trying to get faxgetty to start with it, and I've placed my configuration files in /etc/init, but if I use initctl it doesn't seem to be picking up the changes
[11:46] <Kingsy> ok what would I need to install to print to a network printer?
[11:46] <red2kic> wrektjet: No problem. I still think you're crazy though.
[11:47] <Kingsy> the network printer is on a windows machine
[11:47] <leifmadsen> if I run initctl list I don't see the ttyIAX like I expect
[11:47] <leifmadsen> this is my /etc/init/ttyIAX file:  http://pastebin.com/VMskJDRe
[11:49] <wrektjet> red2kic, lol why?
[11:49] <wrektjet> oh haha
[11:49] <wrektjet> gotcha
[11:50] <DjAngo23> Hey everyone, since yesterday's update i can't log in into my phpmyadmin : i get : Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed.
[11:50] <DjAngo23> Any idea ?
[11:51] <dustin> soreau,sorry ,im just cracky about asking without answers
[11:51] <WaltzingAlong> !upstart > leifmadsen
[11:54] <leifmadsen> btw: the answer to my question was:   mv ttyIAX ttyIAX.conf
[11:54] <jenda> Is there a way to adjust mouse wheel sensitivity? My mouse has become too sensitive after an update (only change I can think of, that is) and it's pretty hard to use now.
[11:54] <Kingsy> can anyone help with my issue?
[11:55] <jstoone> Hi everyone, does anyone know if there's still a problem with the xorg.conf file when you activate the Nvidia Driver? In the later versions of Ubuntu my screen got splitted out in 6 parts
[11:55] <newbie-cro> ok i need help regarding manual configuration or automatic of wlan0 adapter. Second question: why my notebook doesn't connect on wlan today, I normally conected yesterday. OS 10.4 Llynx

[11:57] <dustin> soreau, can you show me how to set up just one remote desktop?
[11:57] <newbie-cro> somebody ?
[11:58] <Kingsy> apt-get install samba doesnt do anything.. does that mean its already installed?
[11:58] <soreau> dustin: I know how to do it on a lan but never set it up remotely
[11:58] <red2kic> Kingsy: Yes.
[11:58] <Kingsy> or is it samba4 I need to install?
[11:58] <red2kic> Kingsy: Or you forget how to sudo.
[11:58] <jrib> Kingsy: it surely does something... even if that something is just printing a message
[11:58] <Kingsy> jrib - yea sorry I meant it says no new items installed
[11:59] <jrib> Kingsy: apt-cache policy will tell you if it is installed
, then would it be bad idea if you connented to me?
[11:59] <red2kic> tuntun: Try "dpkg -L zoneminder | grep bin" -- It should list the command to run.
[11:59] <tuntun> I just installed a program, theres no entry in the menu, how do i run it? zoneminder
[12:00] <Kingsy> jrib - I have no idea what that stuff means..should I pastie it?
[12:00] <dustin> soreau,then would it be bad idea if you connented to me?
[12:00] <jrib> Kingsy: if you want to
[12:00] <jrib> tuntun: dpkg -L zoneminder | grep bin
[12:00] <meowbuntu> darn now my webcam wont work in ubuntu

[12:01] <newbie-cro> Please ?
[12:01] <Kingsy> jrib - I cant
[12:01] <soreau> dustin: For the sake of random strangers connecting to your machine remotely, sounds like a security issue
[12:01] <jrib> Kingsy: I meant: apt-cache policy PACKAGE
[12:01] <Kingsy> ah sorry
[12:01] <jrib> Kingsy: and no sudo...
[12:01] <karthee> Hi .. How do I use getopts to keep the argument name to be more than one character ?   for me -p 50 is work  I am not able to give the meaning for the arg -port 50 .

[12:02] <Kingsy> I typed --> apt-cache policy package
[12:03] <Kingsy> jrib - right so its not installed
[12:03] <red2kic> Kingsy: Change 'package' with 'samba'

[12:12] <Kingsy> jrib - yup
[12:12] <Kingsy> the network printer is on windows
[12:13] <jrib> Kingsy: ok, usually when you say "sharing a printer" it means you want to share a printer connected to the machine you are on (to me at least).  See: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/printing/C/printing.html#network

[12:15] <faLUCE> Hi all. I use an usb alcatel x210s modem for internet connection (on ubuntu 10.04). Unfortunately, I can connect to internet only few times, and most times I need to reboot and try to connect again in order to estabilish a connection. what can be the problem?
[12:15] <Kingsy> jrib - ahh that is awsome nice one
[12:17] <gogeta1> faLUCE: isnt that a 3g modem i beleve that model is known for being unsable
[12:17] <gogeta1> faLUCE: ubuntus wiki on 3g list some possable fixes
[12:18] <faLUCE> gogeta1: where exactly?
[12:19] <gogeta1> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkManager/Hardware/3G
[12:19] <faLUCE> gogeta1: I can't find my model
[12:21] <Guest31217> #metasploit
[12:21] <gogeta1> faLUCE: i found some info non english
[12:21] <dustin> soreau,and then theres the romantic part, yes i know he is not much like us,just the common fackbook myspace, so on and so on.but if i did this right she would just love me even more,with my computer vision,so i make  her laptop expsample  more ppl would use it, and then i could help her out with school another state ,and give her music she so likes, so its possible to file transfer,and everthing else i could think of?
[12:21] <faLUCE> gogeta1: where?
[12:22] <FirstGearone> what directory are the apache2 html files usually kept?
[12:22] <meowbuntu> ubuntu does not seem to pick up my webcam anymore not in cheese skype etc i think my laptop camera is not being detected at all

[12:23]  * j800r is away: Gone away for now
[12:23] <soreau> dustin: yes, it's possible in a variety of different ways. You will have to google and read about whatever you're wanting to do exactly
[12:23] <gogeta1> if you speak italion
[12:23] <faLUCE> gogeta1: I already use usbmodeswitch
[12:24] <gogeta1> faLUCE: well it was a translation may be more info

[12:25] <lostinspace_46> I am aware that this line  'Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.32-23-generic'   in a grub menuentry is merely a text string and I can put whatever I wish there.  What file describes the positioning of those text strings as well as the text for the arrow key instructions?
[12:25] <dustin> soreau,whatever i can do here, she can see it happening there, like she is want me to fix her computer agian,she is across state

[12:27] <soreau> dustin: sys>prefs>Remote Desktop on the server and applications>internet>Remote Desktop Viewer on the client

[12:51] <meowbuntu> bazhang: that does not document anythig about laptop webcams just usb ones
[12:51] <soreau> meowbuntu: That sounds like the driver isn't being loaded. Have you checked the output of 'dmesg' for anything interesting?
[12:52] <gogeta1> meowbuntu: most interner laptop cams are in fact conencted to the usb bus
[12:52] <gogeta1> meowbuntu: your cam may use the same driver
[12:52] <meowbuntu> soreau: what am i looking for roughly in that
[12:52] <peter__> good morning 、afternoon、night everyone
[12:53] <meowbuntu> gogeta1: it did work before ok

[12:54] <gogeta1> sudo
[12:55] <gogeta1> computer_: wine runs alot but not everything
[12:55] <computer_> yeah my game is in gold list
[12:55] <gogeta1> computer_: and after you install make shure to go to the wine config so it gets its first setup files etc sound
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> often with games it can be a matter of 'versions' of wine, or other configs..
[12:55] <iNPUTmice> hi
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> computer_:  that 'play on linux' wine front end can help in some cases. It all depends on the game.
[12:56] <gogeta1> computer_: then right click the games .exe and open with wine launcher
[12:57] <dzan> hi, i used update-rc wicd defaults to make wicd start on system start but it didn't work... someone knows why?
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> computer_:  you could tell us whats 'not working' in your case.
[12:57] <meowbuntu> gogeta1: here is the output http://www.pastebin.org/421991
[12:57] <dustin> well im sTILL trying to get question 30of 189 answered remte desktop, do you or anyone know of a link, or so starting point ?
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> dzan:  could be due to the move to using the 'upstart' init system  - im not sure update-rc works any more. (not tried it in ages)
[12:58] <dustin> some*
[12:58] <iceroot_> is there something like a taskbar which is showing/hidding windows? so i can fress f7 so show/hide thunderbird. the same thing yaquake, tilda and so on are using

[12:58] <computer_> shattered galaxy installed but wont run, its a gold list game
[12:58] <dzan> Dr_Willis, it's ubuntu 9.10 a minimal install

[12:59] <DjAngo23> Hey everyone, since yesterday's update i can't log in into my phpmyadmin : i get : Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed.
[12:59] <DjAngo23> Any idea ?
[12:59] <gogeta1> computer_: that game uses nprotect no nprotect games work being its bascily a kernel level rootkit is probly listed as gold on privert server versions
[12:59] <iNPUTmice> i am trying to pxe boot an ubuntu 10.04 live cd. but it gets stuck on eth0: link is not ready ...... siocgifindex no such device. however moments later the kernel reports e1000e... eth0 becomes ready. but boot doesnt continue
[12:59] <madrid> Hi, I have a doubt about one thing, Linux is incompatible or immune to the dangerous botnet, or zombie network?
[12:59] <Dr_Willis> computer_:  theres so many guides/tips/issues with WoW -  you can proberlys spend more time trying to get it workiong.. then you spend playing it..
[12:59] <computer_> i see
[12:59] <metalgeek> hi, my ubuntu 10.04 and windows xp boxes can join the same wireless network but can't ping or see each other. Any ideas?
[12:59] <coz_> hey guys... the package secure-delete has changed in lucid from karmic...in fact parts of it are not available via terminal ...anyonw know who is the developer of this?
[12:59] <abhijit> !virus | madrid
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> computer_:  games with complex copy protextion often fail badly in wine.
[13:00] <dzan> hi, i used update-rc wicd defaults to make wicd start on system start but it didn't work... anyone knows?
[13:00] <meowbuntu> gogeta1: here http://www.pastebin.org/422003
[13:00] <abhijit> dzan, you want to add wicd to startup at login?
[13:00] <gogeta1> madrid: a updated version of linux is pretty hard to brake into
[13:00] <nascentmind> anybody?
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> dzan:  you did look in the rc## dirs to see if it actually made a  script?   last i tried wicd it auto added itself as needed to the various starup places
[13:01] <dzan> abhijit, yes
[13:01] <TuxSax> dzan: what is the exact command you tried?
[13:01] <dzan> Dr_Willis, i'll check... where are those dirs?
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> dzan:  you dont uses services for things that yopu need to run at 'login'
[13:01] <dzan> TuxSax, update-rc.d wicd defaults
[13:01] <abhijit> dzan, then why not just add command of wicd to preferences=>startup aps?
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> dzan:  im thiniking you are confused about how the rc.d stuff works
[13:02] <dzan> abhijit, only shell, it's a minimal install
[13:02] <gogeta1> madrid: just never say never there has been a few unix baddys out there all dead now
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> wicd has a cli interface? cant say ive noticed that.
[13:02] <dzan> i'll explain: it's ubuntu 9.10 minimal with xmbc on top, xmbc has no controlls for it, it has to autostart and the daemon has to run
[13:02] <gogeta1> madrid: but the chances are very slow
[13:02] <dzan> Dr_Willis, yes: wicd-curses
[13:02] <gogeta1> low
[13:02] <metalgeek> Dr_Willis, Hello and Good morning, Any chance i could pick your extensive brain?
[13:02] <TuxSax> dzan: try with -f (force)
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> xbmc runs in X.. last i checked.. unless it has a fremabuffer vbersion..
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> metalgeek:  i got to run to the EyeDoctor. I will be back in about 2 hrs..
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> bye all
[13:03] <madrid> ubottu: I have not asked that, my question is this: I have a doubt about one thing, Linux is incompatible or immune to the dangerous botnet, or zombie network?
[13:03] <metalgeek> Dr_Willis,
[13:03] <dzan> TuxSax, i removed wicd with -f then added it...didn't help
[13:03] <metalgeek> Dr_Willis, Good lucl lol
[13:03] <dzan> Dr_Willis, does it make a difference ? X or not?
[13:03] <DjAngo23> I have a probleme with my mysql server, since the update from yesterday.
[13:03] <DjAngo23> sudo mysql start
[13:03] <DjAngo23> ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[13:03] <metalgeek> luck
[13:03] <dzan> i had it working once ,don't remember how i did it
[13:04] <gogeta1> madrid: well the chances are pretty darn slim and are incomptable of any windows ones
[13:04] <madrid> gogeta1: I have not asked that, my question is this: I have a doubt about one thing, Linux is incompatible or immune to the dangerous botnet, or zombie network?
[13:04] <gogeta1> madrid: i just answerd
[13:05] <gogeta1> madrid: knothing is 100%
[13:05] <gogeta1> madrid: but its defently at 99$
[13:05] <dzan> Dr_Willis, the scripts are there
[13:05] <bazhang> madrid, did you have an actual ubuntu support issue question? perhaps try #ubuntu-offtopic or ##linux if not
[13:05] <gogeta1> %
[13:06] <gogeta1> madrid: thers currently no known activ linux botnets but it does not mean some hacker will make one
[13:06] <madrid> gogeta1 what is knothing?
[13:06] <gogeta1> madrid: in genrel knothing is 100% immune to anything
[13:08] <gogeta1> madrid: being thers are no activ linux botnets maleware etc its a common myth linux cant get them
[13:08] <madrid> gogeta1 the genrel is the linux kernel?
[13:08] <coz_> madrid,  at this point  ... not to worry unless you are running a server... my nephew has already been attacked by viruses on his linux server...however ..the more popular linux / ubuntu becomes  the more likely there will be attacks... i  would give it another 4 or 5 years before it starts to be a problem
[13:08] <gogeta1> madrid: in anything pc realted
[13:09] <gogeta1> coz_: yea but its funny to laugh when they attack you server with windows vireses
[13:09] <coz_> although there was a trojan reported from gnome-look  just a few months ago
[13:10] <gogeta1> coz_: yea dead now
[13:10] <coz_> gogeta1,  yes thankfully :)
[13:10] <gogeta1> madrid: linux vireses have happond but unlike windowz one they are short lived
[13:11] <Jinxed-> I am using samba and sharing a folder over my network
[13:11] <coz_> being that the kernel is open source it is much easier to detect back doors and security hazards   way many people work on this :)
[13:11] <Jinxed-> my windows computers can't acess the folder now
[13:11] <coz_> madrid,   if you are really concerned  you can go to the BlackHat  site  to read on current security events in linux
[13:11] <gogeta1> madrid: we patch whatever they founf to expolite and kill the vires something windows cant always do
[13:11] <jamesaNELAY> how do i find out if i have lucid hardy jaunty etc?
[13:12] <bazhang> jamesaNELAY, lsb_release -a
[13:12] <jamesaNELAY> lucid, cheers bazhang
[13:12] <gogeta1> madrid: calling it immune would be a lie calling it pretty dammed hard to infect would be more acrret
[13:13] <bazhang> !ot
[13:13] <TuxSax> coz_: so far, most people that "mess" with linux are decent people, and as long as linux has only a little portion of the world market, it will remain clean
[13:13] <bazhang> lets take botnet chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[13:13] <petercoulton> Nevermind. I figured it out.
[13:13] <coz_> TuxSax,  exactly  plus with blackhat  conferances these issues are looked at very deeply
[13:14] <TuxSax> but nowadays, if someone really wanted, it would be very easy to use exploits and write malware for linux
[13:14] <gogeta1> lol think he sent the entire channel into blackhat mode
[13:14] <madrid> gogetta1 linux is incompatible better than immune
[13:14] <coz_> :)
[13:14] <TuxSax> that's why I still like linux as long as is not "mainstream"
[13:15] <Pici> madrid, gogeta1: This channel is for Ubuntu support only, if you want to continue the conversation please move to #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:15] <TuxSax> it remains relatively safe
[13:15] <gogeta1> madrid: atm i knoe of no bad softwhere in the wiled for now both
[13:15] <coz_> TuxSax,  with an estimated 60 million users that will soon change
[13:15] <Jinxed-> Any idea whty You might not have permission to use this network resource on a shared folder... the weird thing was it was working earlier this morning.

[13:23] <TuxSax> ashiswin: I don't think that's possible

[13:23] <natex> lostinspace_46: vlc can open those
[13:23] <ashiswin> at the start i only had the network manager
[13:23] <gogeta1> !ip
[13:23] <kangarooo1> llutz: usually when installing wine then i get also a submenu Other and there is wine preferences and all in wine installed programms..
[13:23] <ashiswin> metalgeek: I added a notification area to my top panel. It comes with a volume control and network manager icon. How do i remove the vol control icon from the notification area without touching the network manager?

[13:24] <gogeta1> i tryed that
[13:24] <metalgeek> gogeta1, i understand what an ip is i just don't understand your question
[13:24] <ashiswin> madrid or metalgeek any luck?
[13:24] <gogeta1> metalgeek: i asked if the ad-hoc was getting a ip
[13:24] <metalgeek> ashiswin, looking now
[13:24] <ashiswin> thanks
[13:24] <madrid> ashiswin: whats is the qn?
[13:25] <ashiswin> I added a notification area to my top panel. It comes with a volume control and network manager icon. How do i remove the vol control icon from the notification area without touching the network manager?
[13:25] <coz_> kangarooo1,  I qam finding on lucid that installed applications do not always show up under the menus  right away...an old problem I never expected to see again... however  checking  in ghe main menu helps or just reboot
[13:25] <metalgeek> gogeta1, Both of the machines on the ad-hoc have manually set ip's in the same subnet mask
[13:25] <coz_> kangarooo1,   and "ghe"  is suppose to be "the"  sorry  damn fingers :)
[13:25] <gogeta1> metalgeek: when i ad-hoc my psp under ubuntu i had to set it to link only
[13:25] <kangarooo1> coz_: im in xubuntu i dont have that menu. but i have file:///usr/share/applications/wine.desktop but it doesnt show up in menu.. maybe a new bug?
[13:25] <metalgeek> gogeta1, not an idiot just a noob to linux
[13:26] <gogeta1> metalgeek: otherwise it would not get a ip adress
[13:26] <metalgeek> gogeta1, my psp works fine
[13:26] <coz_> kangarooo1,  oooo then I am at a loss...did you try rebooting to see if the menu gets refreshed??/ there used to be  a  sudo update-menus   command which no longer exists as far as I can see
[13:26] <natex> kangarooo1: make sure the .desktop file is correct. If it's badly formatted or plain wrong, it probably won't show up.
[13:27] <gogeta1> metalgeek: if i rember my ad-hoc both machines need to have the same ip for the link to work
[13:27] <metalgeek> ashiswin, sorry still looking
[13:27] <coz_> kangarooo1,  if all else fails... sudo apt-get autoremove --purge wine  and reinstall it
[13:27] <ashiswin> metalgeek: its ok:)
[13:28] <kangarooo1> coz_: also ive experienced the same problem (programm item not showing but in applications folder it is) in another comp with google-gadgets-qt 2 days ago
[13:28] <metalgeek> ashiswin, do you mind loosing the mail icon?
[13:28] <ashiswin> yes i do metalgeek. why?
[13:28] <gogeta1> metalgeek: and thats probly confusing the hell out of samba
[13:28] <Epcylon> All of a sudden the oldstyle init.d scripts aren't being run on startup (including memcached and postfix).. anyone know what could be the cause?
[13:29] <coz_> kangarooo1,  yeah as I mentioned... I have noticed this issue in Lucid... its an old problem that should have never  shown up again
[13:29] <kangarooo1> natex: yes i think thats the problem.. but file looks similar to others..
[13:29] <MrPink> Hello, I have Ubuntu 10.04 installed and a Webcam: Logitech Quickcam STX... what do I need to install to use the cam?
[13:29] <metalgeek> gogeta1, if both machines have the same ip how will the network tell the difference
[13:29] <kangarooo1> ah and btw coz_ that other comp is 10.10 but this from witch i write and want wine on is 10.04
[13:29] <coz_> kangarooo1,  understood
[13:30] <bazhang> MrPink, try cheese and camorama for starters
[13:30] <natex> kangarooo1: make sure file permissions are correct (readable), and make sure the file adheres to http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/
[13:30] <coz_> kangarooo1,   did you open the Main Menu  and check?
[13:30] <gogeta1> metalgeek: ad-hoc is a odd mode i just rember a guide on it saying the ips need to be the same
[13:30] <coz_> kangarooo1,  nevermind  you said this is  xfce
[13:31] <madrid> Why does wine programs can not detect my webcam?
[13:31] <coz_> kangarooo1,  sorry...did you say you already rebooted?
[13:31] <ashiswin> any luck madrid?
[13:31] <metalgeek> ashiswin, cause the solution i tried got rid of the volume and the mail. Though i suppose you could add that again with a custom launcher
[13:31] <ashiswin> oh, metalgeek. i wanna keep the default vol control and remove the new one
[13:31] <metalgeek> is there a good guide for ad-hoc networks with ubuntu?
[13:32] <gogeta1> metalgeek: You should now be connected to the ad hoc network. Use the iwconfig  command to view the cell being used. This must match the same cell on  the other PCs that you want to connect to.
[13:32] <TuxSax> ashiswin: do you mind starting fresh by restoring the panels to the defaut and customize it from there?
[13:32] <whiskers75> i cant install ubuntu 10.04 from the cd i have tried another cd but that dows not work can anyone help
[13:32] <metalgeek> TuxSax, Thanks for the save lol
[13:32] <hemza> i do not use swap ... is this influent on my laptop
[13:33] <coz_> whiskers75,   ok you downloaded the  ISO image and how did you burn this?
[13:33] <madrid> ashiswin: no luck I am very pessimistic and with linux more yet
[13:33] <coz_> whiskers75,  which application did you burn the cd with?
[13:33] <whiskers75> i did it on a mac by going into disk utility
[13:33] <krabador> hi, i must enable universe and multiverse repos from terminal, how can i do it?
[13:33] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, i think if you uninstall indicator-sound it will remove the new volume and leave the mail icon.  good luck.
[13:33] <MrPink> bazhang: Don't I need some kind of drivers first? Camorama gives me an error when I start it "cannot caputre Image"
[13:34] <coz_> whiskers75,  ok and does that disk utility allow for burning at 1x
[13:34] <gogeta1> metalgeek: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Adhoc
[13:34] <bazhang> krabador, from system administration software sources
[13:34] <ashiswin> hmm thanks zykotick9, ill try that
[13:34] <TuxSax> ashiswin: if my suggestion suits you, try to run this command: sudo debconf gnome-panel
[13:34] <whiskers75> i think so... the lowest is 2x?
[13:34] <metalgeek> gogeta1, your the best cheers
[13:34] <ashiswin> ok
[13:34] <abhijit> !universe | krabador
[13:34] <bazhang> MrPink, I would suggest checking the list of supported webcams then
[13:34] <bazhang> !webcam | MrPink
[13:34] <krabador> bazhang, i neet to do it from terminal , for add the command in a group of && commands
[13:34] <gogeta1> metalgeek: i beleve the network manager works with ad-hoc now
[13:35] <kyle_> anyone know of any bootable applications that will allow me to create an image of a HDD as raw (Like DD but bootable)
[13:35] <ashiswin> TuxSax, I tried and everything disappeared >.<
[13:35] <MrPink> bazhang: Thanks I will check it iout
[13:35] <ashiswin> i killed the process and it came back to the thing with 2 vol controls
[13:35] <TuxSax> ashiswin: don't panic
[13:35] <natex> krabador: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/CommandLine
[13:35] <MrPink> bazhang: Although cheese works out of the box
[13:35] <coz_> whiskers75,  ok  let me suggest something if its possible... there is a minimal install cd  which is very cool  in that is downloads and installs ALL current updates  during the install procedure... you can also  choose which install like kubuntu-desktop  or edubuntu-desktop   with spacebar being the key that ticks the box and arrows for scrolling through the options
[13:36] <krabador> thanx natex
[13:36] <TuxSax> ashiswin: you need to reboot after doing the command I said
[13:36] <whiskers75> i might be able to do that
[13:36] <coz_> whiskers75,   I would suggest downloading that iso  and burning it at the 2x speed
[13:36] <ashiswin> ok
[13:36] <whiskers75> ok thanks for the help
[13:36] <coz_> whiskers75,  just remember that Space bar will put an x  in the box and the arrows scroll through the options
[13:36] <ashiswin> but if the terminal closes, wouldnt it go back to the old settings again TuxSax?
[13:36] <TuxSax> ashiswin: run the command, then reboot, and come back, I'll wait for you to
[13:36] <ashiswin> ok
[13:36] <whiskers75> thanks i will try that later
[13:37] <coz_> whiskers75,  dont over do the choices... I also suggest edubuntu  for its nice integration of kde and gnome libraries
[13:37] <TuxSax> I want you to start from the default, the default doesn't have two sound applets
[13:37] <whiskers75> maybe.... i quite like plain ubuntu or kubuntu
[13:37] <Turbolinux> Can you answer my question? Thank you.
[13:37] <kyle_> anyone know of any bootable applications that will allow me to create an image of a HDD as raw (Like DD but bootable)
[13:37] <coz_> whiskers75,  the  choice of Edubuntu-desktop is plain gnome
[13:38] <whiskers75> ok I might do that
[13:38] <coz_> whiskers75,  it just incorporates kde libraries and actually runs faster than ubuntu itself
[13:38] <madrid> I just want a program that detects the camera I was using wine programs.
[13:38] <whiskers75> clever... now i definetly will do that!
[13:38] <coz_> whiskers75,  so   when the time comes on that cd to choose  ONLY choose  Edubuntu-desktop   and I dont think you will be disappointed
[13:38] <TuxSax> Turbolinux: what's your question?
[13:38] <whiskers75> ok
[13:38] <ashiswin> TuxSax, it didnt work
[13:38] <coz_> whiskers75,  it is ubuntu in everyway :)
[13:38] <whiskers75>  :)
[13:39] <coz_> whiskers75,  i and I have switched to it permanently just this past 2 weeks :)
[13:39] <TuxSax> ashiswin: hold on, we'll try something else
[13:39] <whiskers75> good
[13:39] <ashiswin> thans TuxSax
[13:39] <Turbolinux> TuxSax: Is there anyone who use Toshiba NB200 computer with 3G function? This is my question?
[13:39] <Turbolinux> .
[13:39] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, again "indicator-sound"
[13:40] <ashiswin> how do u remove that ZykoticK9?
[13:40] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, one way is "sudo apt-get remove indicator-sound", another is Synaptic or Ubuntu Software Center
[13:40] <TuxSax> ashiswin: the notification area has a sound indicator, right?
[13:40] <TuxSax> so where the other sound indicator came from?
[13:40] <ashiswin> yea tuxsax
[13:40] <TuxSax> can you right click on it and then remove it?
[13:41] <ashiswin> its from the indicator applet
[13:41] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, that will remove the mail icon as well
[13:41] <ashiswin> ones in the notification, ones in the idicator. the indicator was default
[13:41] <madrid> I just want a program that detects the webcam while using wine programs.
[13:41] <Mjuksel> hi guys
[13:41] <ashiswin> but ZykoticK9, i wanna keep the mail icon cos my chat and stuff r there
[13:41] <ringods> Hello, I hope someone can help me out with a networking issue.
[13:42] <Mjuksel> i have a question :O
[13:42] <ringods> lshw -class network reports my eth0 as DISABLED.
[13:42] <TuxSax> Turbolinux: sorry, I can't help you there
[13:42] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, then the right click remove won't work, just my uninstall command
[13:42] <ringods> ifconfig doesn't report eth0. How can I get that interface enabled again?
[13:42] <Mjuksel> is there any program to show xchat or other irc program on desktop like a wallpaper widget ?
[13:42] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, s/just my/just use my
[13:42] <ashiswin> but will that remove both of the vol controls ZykoticK9?
[13:42] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, not my uninstall command no
[13:42] <hporse> hi. did anyone in here test the youtube-dl script? it is broken on my system since like a week or so. it always says here are no available formats (for any video). anyone in here for whom the script still works?
[13:43] <ashiswin> ok im doing it ZykoticK9
[13:43] <coz_> Mjuksel,  well  I know cairo dock has an xchat  plugin that can be set onto the desktop like a screenlet or widget
[13:43] <ZykoticK9> hporse, you need to use a new version NOT in the repo
[13:43] <Khannz> Guys, how I can restrict access for a user so he can't go anywhere except homedir?
[13:43] <ZykoticK9> hporse, i fixed the same issue yesterday ;)
[13:43] <Mjuksel> is there any program to show xchat or other irc program on desktop like a wallpaper widget ?
[13:43] <TuxSax> ringods: open terminal and run cat /etc/networking/interfaces
[13:43] <coz_> Mjuksel, you could check to see if screenlets have applications for this
[13:44] <Mjuksel> ah yeah
[13:44] <Mjuksel> lemme try
[13:44] <coz_> Mjuksel,    http://www.screenlets.org/index.php/Home
[13:44] <ringods> TuxSax: "auto eth0" followed by "iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[13:44] <Mjuksel> k tnx ill have a look
[13:44] <Mjuksel> im a bit new @ ubuntu :p
[13:44] <coz_> Mjuksel,    http://screenlets.org/index.php/Category:UserScreenlets
[13:44] <ringods> TuxSax: mac address in udev rules match
[13:44] <kyle_> anyone know of any bootable applications that will allow me to create an image of a HDD as raw (Like DD but bootable)
[13:44] <hporse> ZykoticK9: ok, thanks. isn't it odd that no one opened a bug report yet?
[13:44] <ZykoticK9> hporse, run "youtube-dl -v" and be sure it says "2010.07.24" - FYI i havne't figured out how to use "youtube-dl -b BLAH" in the new version
[13:45] <coz_> Mjuksel,  you would..of course...have to install screenlets  with   sudo apt-get install screenlets first
[13:45] <ZykoticK9> hporse, there are at least 2 bugs i believe
[13:45] <TuxSax> ringods: that looks OK, how about the network manager applet? can you right click it ?
[13:45] <ashiswin> umm ZykoticK9, that removed the wrong one
[13:45] <coz_> Mjuksel,  it comes with a dozen or so default screenlets for you to test
[13:45] <Mjuksel> i have screenlets installed thank you ;)
[13:45] <ashiswin> Is there one called notifier-sound or smth like that?
[13:45] <MikeChelen> can anyone recommend a gui for webcam recording? a middle ground between cheese (too simple) and vlc (too complex) would be great
[13:45] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, indicator-sound is the NEW one
[13:45] <ringods> TuxSax: ubuntu lucid server i386, so no network manager (I suppose). Similar amd64 setup works like a charm
[13:46] <ringods> for the record: both VBox virtual machines
[13:46] <ashiswin> ZykoticK9, when i ran that, it removed the default one instead of the one in the notification panel
[13:46] <coz_> MikeChelen,  mmm  recording from web cam?  let me check
[13:46] <dubey> hello
[13:46] <TuxSax> oh, sorry, you would better ask question like this at #ubuntu-server, then
[13:46] <lux`> can someone write lucs?
[13:46] <ringods> TuxSax: ok, I'll hop over...
[13:46] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, sorry i thought that's what you wanted.  reinstall indictor-sound and remove the Gnome Sound one instead
[13:46] <coz_> MikeChelen,   I think Cheese can record from the webcam
[13:47] <ashiswin> oo ok ZykoticK9, what do i type for Gnome Sound?
[13:47] <cypher-neo> MikeChelen, have you tried mencoder?
[13:47] <MikeChelen> coz_: yup thats right, it has very few preferences though such as file format or bitrate (also it has been crashing for me)
[13:47] <bazhang> MikeChelen, camorama may be worth a try as well
[13:47] <coz_> MikeChelen,   or better yet   webcamstudio
[13:47] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, not sure, do you remember how you added it?
[13:48] <ashiswin> i added a notification area. it came along with that. i did nothing else
[13:48] <MikeChelen> cypher-neo: is there a gui for mencoder? been using it from command line, but too unknowledgeable to get desired results
[13:48] <bazhang> MikeChelen, winff
[13:48] <cypher-neo> MikeChelen: AFAIK, it's strictly command line.
[13:48] <Mjuksel> hmm i dont really see an IRC screenlet :(
[13:48] <coz_> MikeChelen,   http://www.ws4gl.org/
[13:48] <ZykoticK9> bazhang, technically winff is a frontend to ffmpeg not mencoder
[13:48] <bazhang> ZykoticK9, yep
[13:49] <MikeChelen> bazhang: camorama keeps giving me an error "could not connect to video device (/dev/video0). Please check connection" even though /dev/video0 works fine with mplayer and vlc
[13:49] <bazhang> I'd give camorama a shot
[13:49] <Khannz> Guys, how I can restrict access for a user so he can't go anywhere except homedir?
[13:50] <bazhang> Khannz, create a guest account?
[13:50] <MikeChelen> coz_: will try webcamstudio again, it seems to max my cpu causing encoding problems
[13:50] <ashiswin> ZykoticK9, any luck?
[13:50] <Khannz> bazhang: I'm not sure - how?
[13:50] <Mjuksel> btw i LOVEEE ubuntu
[13:50] <Mjuksel> :O
[13:50] <Kartagis> !xmms
[13:50] <Kartagis> !xmms2
[13:50] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, sorry i stopped looking...
[13:50] <Mjuksel> cant seem to find any irc screenlets though :(
[13:50] <bazhang> Kartagis, try audacious
[13:51] <MikeChelen> bazhang: will winff capture from webcam?
[13:51] <Kartagis> bazhang I'm looking for something that I can broadcast from
[13:51] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, is gnome-volume-manager installed on your system?
[13:51] <ashiswin> oh. well, can someone help me then? I have a volume control icon in the notification area and i wanna remove it
[13:51] <ashiswin> ZykoticK9: Hmm, i'm not sure
[13:52] <Epcylon> Nobody has any idea why the old style init scripts are no longer being run?
[13:52] <Khannz> I tried "adduser --home <%pathofinterest%> --no-create-home <%username%>
[13:52] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, in terminal "apt-cache policy gnome-volume-manager"
[13:52] <machete> hey there
[13:52] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, my 10.04 does NOT have that installed by default (or now for that matter)

[13:52] <ashiswin> i dont have it ZykoticK9
[13:52] <donato> jin #ubuntu
[13:53] <ZykoticK9> Anyone know the name of the old Gnome Volume Control?  NOT the idicator-sound one.
[13:53] <bazhang> MikeChelen, seems mencoder will then you can convert with ffmpeg (winff) if needed
[13:53] <donato> join #ubuntu
[13:53] <bazhang> donato, you are here
[13:54] <MikeChelen> bazhang: ok, maybe i will stick with mencoder for the capturing then. i just can't get it to output .ogv
[13:54] <juboba> hey
[13:54] <ashiswin> YESS!!
[13:54] <bazhang> Khannz, will this be long term? guest session for short term, or just create another user in users and groups if longer term

[13:56] <juboba> machete: you want to use evolution in win7?
[13:56] <Khannz> bazhang: sure I created new user but by default he freely can watch my / and even read any config files, but I want to fully block it so he can only view own homedir
[13:56] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, try System / Preferences / Startup Applications - and see if Gnome Volume Control is listed
[13:56] <andre> tar xvzf broffice.org_2.0.xxx_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gz   I try this command but I cant install

[13:57] <juboba> mmmm
[13:57] <andre> you know install the broffice ?
[13:57] <ZykoticK9> Khannz, just an FYI but if you limit a user account to ONLY home directory, there will no (or very few) commands available to that user
[13:57] <ashiswin> ZykoticK9, i added a startup app with the command "killall gnome-volume-control-applet" and now it doesnt open anymore :-)
[13:58] <Khannz> ZykoticK9: so no ssh for them?
[13:58] <ZykoticK9> ashiswin, killall just closes a command
[13:58] <ZykoticK9> Khannz, doubt it as ssh is in /usr/bin i imagine
[13:59] <andre> Who know to install the broffice for ubuntu ?
[13:59] <dubey> anyone ?
[13:59] <ashiswin> Yea but it works ZykoticK9 :)
[13:59] <Khannz> ZykoticK9: no-no, I mean that since I can't limit user to read FS - I can't give him ssh access?
[13:59] <bazhang> andre, what is broffice
[14:00] <ZykoticK9> Khannz, what you are basically talking about is a change-root environment, i haven't played with that stuff much so i really don't know for sure.  Best of luck man.
[14:00] <andre> its like microsoft office for windows. do you know ?
[14:00] <Khannz> ZykoticK9: kk mate. ty anyway
[14:00] <bazhang> andre, open office?
[14:01] <andre> yes, but brasilian version
[14:01] <gogeta1> bazhang: lol i was wating for that
[14:01] <Kartagis> what's the xmms2 graphical package?
[14:01] <bazhang> andre, just install the language packs
[14:01] <jrib> Kartagis: apt-cache search -n xmms2
[14:02] <ZykoticK9> Kartagis, xmm2 is a client/server situation, there are various GUI/CLI front ends in the repo i believe
[14:02] <ZykoticK9> s/xmm2/xmms2
[14:02] <gogeta1> xmm2 xmms is ciompletly the wrong direction
[14:02] <Kartagis> ZykoticK9 can you name one?

[14:05] <ackbahr> Hi! I'm using one of my photo sorting scripts with nautilus-scripts (which starts scripts from right-click menu) and I'm wondering if there's a way to display a window (x or bash) to make it signal it's done?
[14:06] <Oer> andre, http://broffice-org.software.informer.com/wiki/
[14:06] <jrib> ackbahr: sure use zenity probably
[14:06] <ZykoticK9> gogeta1, i used to use xmms all the time, xmms2 i installed and quickly gave up on.  I guess i just don't like client/server media programs :|
[14:06] <ackbahr> jrib: Thanksm I'll look into it
[14:06] <gogeta1> ZykoticK9: yea i was like woot new xms then i was ike what is this

[14:07] <andre> Is the nimbus roman font the same that times new roman font ?
[14:08] <bazhang> andre, try #openoffice.org if that is what you asking about
[14:08] <juboba> anyone knows what is the default font that MACOSX uses for the terminal?
[14:08] <gogeta1> ZykoticK9: its not even x multi media center its a console app
[14:09] <juboba> I won't go to any other channel
[14:09] <bazhang> juju2143, try ##apple
[14:09] <juboba> in #apple they tried to sell me the font...¬¬
[14:09] <jrib> juboba: go to an osx support channel...
[14:09] <bazhang> whoops sorry juju2143 that was for juboba
[14:09] <gogeta1> well system
[14:09] <bazhang> !ot > juboba
[14:10] <slinker1> monaco is the default font i think
[14:11] <davix> is there a dpkg/apt command that will return 0 if a package exists and something else otherwise?
[14:11] <slinker1> and according to wikipedia n Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, Monaco was replaced as the default Terminal font by Menlo, a font based on Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, like the popular font DejaVu Sans Mono.[1] However, Monaco remains preloaded on all Snow Leopard systems.
[14:13] <ZykoticK9> davix, could "apt-cache search PACKAGENAME" work?  Goog luck man.
[14:14] <schlaftier> Interesting. I was so fond of Monaco that I use it in xterm on Linux, now Apple themselves make another font the default
[14:14] <shiv> I installed kubuntu-desktop I restarted and now when I log out and log in I do not get the choice of using kdm. No options are shown at the login screen. Any ideas?
[14:15] <ZykoticK9> shiv, click on your username first, then you should get a Session option at the bottom
[14:15] <gogeta1> shiv: click the session spot rhen change it to kde
[14:15] <gogeta1> then
[14:16] <shiv> ZykoticK9, gogeta1 I do not get the session option at all. Its no where
[14:16] <gogeta1> shiv: right at the login screen
[14:16] <ZykoticK9> shiv, are you using 10.04?  and did you click on your username?
[14:16] <shiv> gogeta1, yep its not there

[14:28] <gogeta1> Kangarooo: sometimes there spelled diffrent sometimes they got updated and its looking for a out of date no longer exesting package etc apt-get update normaly fixes something you knoe thats there and getting a not found error
[14:28] <ZykoticK9> Kangarooo, "ubuntu-bug apt-get" is incorrect, but I'm not sure what package has apt-get...  still searching.
[14:28] <k0sh> philinux: yay, thanks
[14:29] <Turbolinux> Does Ubuntu recognize Ericsson F3507g mobile broadband device?
[14:29] <Turbolinux> recognizes
[14:30] <ZykoticK9> Kangarooo, i'm guessing "ubuntu-bug apt" might be what your looking for.  Not 100% sure mind you ;)
[14:30] <gogeta1> ZykoticK9: he lost apt-get?
[14:30] <ZykoticK9> gogeta1, no he wants to report a bug
[14:31] <gogeta1> ZykoticK9: file not found not rlly a bug
[14:31] <gogeta1> ZykoticK9: just means the repos dont have what hes looking for
[14:32] <ZykoticK9> gogeta1, "ubuntu-bug apt-get" does not work, because apt-get is not a package name...
[14:32] <gogeta1> ZykoticK9: hua
[14:32] <lethario1> Hey, how do I properly exit from X, and drop to just a terminal?
[14:32] <Oer> apt-utils do exist in the main repo
[14:32] <ZykoticK9> lethario1, "sudo service gdm stop"
[14:33] <gogeta1> yea i think you only need to install that
[14:33] <lethario1> ZykoticK9: Thank you very much :)
[14:33] <lethario1> ZykoticK9: Returns "Fake initctl called, doing nothing" I'm on 9.10, if that matters.
[14:34] <ZykoticK9> lethario1, 9.10 "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[14:34] <gogeta1> ZykoticK9: if he broke apt-gethe needs do download the deb manuly to restore it
[14:34] <TuxSax> lethario1: you can just switch to a terminal without exiting the GUI
[14:34] <Kangarooo> ZykoticK9: apt also isnt working
[14:34] <ZykoticK9> gogeta1, apt-get is NOT missing, just trying to report a bug
[14:34] <TuxSax> use ALT+CTRL+F1
[14:34] <handjob> Hi. I would like Eye of Gnome to display pictures in the order that they are presented in directory. How can I do that?
[14:34] <lethario1> ZykoticK9: It tells me to use "service gdm stop" instead >_<
[14:35] <ZykoticK9> gogeta1, sorry "apt also isn't working"
[14:35] <TuxSax> to get back to GUI use ALT+F7
[14:35] <ZykoticK9> lethario1, ?
[14:35] <lethario1> TuxSax: Unfortunately that's not enough, I need exlusive right's to the GPU. I need X to terminate
[14:35] <gogeta1> ZykoticK9: often if something failed to install dpkg -f installl should resume it
[14:36] <TuxSax> OK, once on that terminal you can stop the GDM service with "sudo service gdm stop"
[14:36] <gogeta1> ZykoticK9: i beleve thats the fix command
[14:36] <hemza> HERE https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup i do not find how to detect built-in bluetooth device ... plz help me
[14:36] <ZykoticK9> gogeta1, i'm not the one with the issue!  Kangarooo has the issue.
[14:36] <lethario1> sudo /etc/init.d/gpm stop returns: "Rather that invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) utility, e.g. service gdm stop"
[14:36] <lethario1> TuxSax: I'll try it, thanks
[14:36] <ZykoticK9> gogeta1, i use "sudo apt-get -f install" not sure if dpkg does the same (probably does)
[14:37] <lethario1> TuxSax / ZykoticK9: Unfortunately neither command works from ALT+F1 terminal either
[14:37] <lethario1> They just return the same (error) messages
[14:37] <ZykoticK9> lethario1, what is the error?
[14:38] <HukuTa> hello
[14:38] <ZykoticK9> lethario1, sorry i see it above.
[14:38] <lethario1> ZykoticK9: using service, I get "Warning: Fake initctl called, doing nothing."
[14:38] <lethario1> ZykoticK9: Ok :)
[14:38] <gogeta1> ZykoticK9: been a wile sence i ahd to resort to dpkg but i knoe like apt if you try to install someting it will say hey stop run this first to fix the broken packages
[14:39] <TuxSax> lethario1: do you have proper user rights?
[14:39] <TuxSax> are you in a terminal after using ALT+CTRL+F1 ?
[14:39] <lethario1> TuxSax: Well, it's a new install, that I did myself, there's only my account.
[14:40] <lethario1> TuxSax: Yes, black white thingie, 400x300 resolution, ugly
[14:40] <gogeta1> ZykoticK9: and recover from a failed upgarde or a interrupted one
[14:40] <TuxSax> lethario1: you should be dropped to a console terminal when using ALT+CTRL+F1
[14:40] <TuxSax> and then are you logged in with your user there?
[14:40] <lethario1> TuxSax: No, I had to login on that one too
[14:41] <TuxSax> lethario1: that's what I asked, if you did log in already
[14:41] <lethario1> TuxSax: I can "sudo su" to root, service gdm stop still does nothing
[14:41] <TuxSax> lethariol, try first to do sudo -i, then when prompted put you password
[14:41] <ZykoticK9> lethario1, don't use "sudo su"!
[14:41] <erUSUL> lethario1: sudo stop gdm
[14:41] <DiploCat> try: gdm-stop
[14:41] <lethario1> TuxSax: Oh, sorry, yes, I logged in ^^
[14:41] <DiploCat> one command
[14:41] <erUSUL> !rootshell | lethario1

[14:42] <erUSUL> lethario1: gdm is now controlled by upstart so you use stop/start/restart/initctl commands whit it
[14:42] <frxstrem> is there something like a .deb package for installing VLC 1.1.x in Ubuntu Karmic?
[14:42] <TuxSax> lethario1: and try pkill gdm
[14:42] <DiploCat> I sudo passwd ubuntu first thing after install
[14:42] <erUSUL> lethario1: man initctl for more information
[14:43] <lethario1> ZykoticK9: Sorry, didn't mean to swear ^^ Just saying I had the rights.

[14:43] <jrib> DASPRiD: you can have it if you want it, it's your computer.  But there's no reason to.
[14:43] <lethario1> DiploCat: That made some progress, but gdm still restarted right away, instead of stopping.

[14:44] <DiploCat> erUSUL, fair enough
[14:44] <Kangarooo> gogeta1: problem is ubuntu-bug i want to use to report bug about apt-get

[14:46] <lethario1> kryptyk: I'm gonna take a look at it.
[14:46] <lethario1> DiploCat: I did, but it just starts right up again >_<
[14:46] <gogeta1> Kangarooo: sounds like a bad update and it broke apt-get sometimes you can reconver it by running sudo dpkg --configure -a
[14:46] <erUSUL> progre55: /etc/init.d/skeleton ? init.d are systemV init scripts plenty of how tros on them
[14:46] <erUSUL> progre55: the one that has no docs is upstart ;P
[14:46] <gogeta1> ZykoticK9: thats the dpkg way of doing a fix install

[14:47] <Kangarooo> gogeta1: no its not update related.. and BTW i have apt-get update made..
[14:47] <gogeta1> Kangarooo: it should resume configureing the packages that didnt
[14:48] <gogeta1> Kangarooo: if update works install will
[14:48] <Kangarooo> gogeta1: i dont want apt-get to do something. problem is i want to report bug about apt-get using ubuntu-bug apt-get (or other corret name)
[14:48] <Kangarooo> gogeta1: i dont want to install anything..
[14:48] <gogeta1> Kangarooo: so your saying apt is not broken
[14:49] <frxstrem> is it possible to give root-like priviliges to non-root users?

[14:49] <ZykoticK9> frxstrem, it's called sudo (just joking).  What are you trying to do?
[14:49] <Genk1> hello
[14:50] <jrib> ZykoticK9: isn't sudo exactly that?
[14:50] <ZykoticK9> jrib, yes
[14:50] <Kangarooo> gogeta1: ok btw bug in apt-get is it shows wrong percentage when updating sources list.. so i want to report about it. using ubuntu-bug packagename and package is apt-get
[14:51] <jrib> Kangarooo: there's no such thing as an "apt-get" package
[14:51] <frxstrem> iceroot_, ZykoticK9: I'm looking for something like sudo, but I am using a PHP script and I do not want to have to call sudo in a shell whenever I want to do some root stuff
[14:51] <Kangarooo> jrib: so how then ubuntu-bug about apt-get? ubuntu-bug apt and apt-utils didnt work
[14:51] <jrib> Kangarooo: never used ubuntu-bug
[14:51] <lethario1> Gah, ubuntu is _too_ userfriendly these days ^^
[14:52] <gogeta1> Kangarooo: i belev its just filed under apt
[14:52] <jrib> Kangarooo: how does "ubuntu-bug apt" not work?
[14:52] <Kangarooo> gogeta1: i already wrote that ubuntu-bug apt shows its not ubuntu pakage.. so it doesnt
[14:52] <DiploCat> lol lethario1... still can't stop gdm? have you checked to see what's running in all the terms... ie. Alt+F7 & ALT+F8?
[14:53] <DiploCat> lethario1, maybe there's some X config prompt hanging about!?

[14:56] <ABBADON> Hi, I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with kernel version 2.6.32-34-generic and 1GB of RAM, and I've got a problem starting GParted, is this the correct channel to ask?
[14:57] <gogeta1> hemza: yea its the kernel
[14:57] <frxstrem> how can I grant root priviliges to non-root users?
[14:57] <lorenz> ABBADON, what do you want to do with gparted?
[14:57] <hemza> what it updates
[14:57] <jars> f
[14:57] <gogeta1> frxstrem: they type sudo like you do
[14:58] <jrib> frxstrem: several people already told you how.  What didn't you like about that answer?
[14:58] <gogeta1> frxstrem: in you group setting add adminstrator to them
[14:58] <iceroot_> frxstrem: never!!! ever in your whole life!!! use php with sudo as root!! never!!!!
[14:58] <lethario1> DiploCat: Um, what should I be looking for then? :)
[14:59] <ABBADON> lorenz, I want to move my home directory to an unformatted 1TB external USB hard drive, but the drive isn't formatted, nor is it showing up.  I'm thinking I have to format it using GParted.
[14:59] <lazybugis> hello, anyone can help me where to start learn unix?
[14:59] <frxstrem> iceroot_: why not? it's a local server, noone else has access to it (neither from the inside nor the outside), and I only use it personally for testing stuff
[14:59] <iceroot_> lazybugis: ubuntu is using linux not unix
[14:59] <lethario1> Unrelated question, the update manager lists a bunch of updates, and the 10.04 update. Can I do the "other" updates without moving to 10.04?
[14:59] <gogeta1> lazybugis: this is linux wile very simler not the same
[14:59] <DiploCat> lethario1, any prompt complaining / asking about your X configuration... mind you I'm guessing now, not sure why it would restart after stopping it :\
[15:00] <lorenz> ABBADON, what happens when you try to start gparted?
[15:00] <jrib> lethario1: sure
[15:00] <jrib> (in fact you should)

[15:00] <jrib> Genk1: sed 's/test//'
[15:00] <iceroot_> frxstrem: if you want to script, use bash or python, dont use php for cli and dont ever used it as root

[15:01] <lethario1> This post http://wwww.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1539526 relates to a similarroblem m with mysql, but that would mean I don't have gdm installed, which seems unlikely. On a standard install, are there other apps than gdm that could be managing my window sessions?
[15:01] <gogeta1> frxstrem: yea not wrong there linux is secure but if you just leave the door open for attack then you ask for it
[15:02] <k0sh> frxstrem: for scripting use shell scripts in bash or ruby, dont use python, since its not a standart
[15:02] <bazhang> argyle, devede
[15:02] <iceroot_> k0sh: of course python is a standard, you mean dont use php for cli-scripting
[15:02] <gogeta1> k0sh: now your just being picky
[15:02] <ABBADON> lorenz, I invoke it with "sudo gparted" and it gives me a "GLib-GObject-ERROR **: Attempt to add property GTKMenuBar::local to class after it was derived (line break) aborting..." message.  It seems to be a libparted 2.2 bug or something.
[15:02] <k0sh> frxstrem: or perl since perl is more widespread and accepted as standart for scripts thann python
[15:02] <erUSUL> k0sh: neither ruby ( even less so than pythin if you ask me) bash, awk and perl
[15:02] <argyle> bazhang: thanks, I'll check it out
[15:03] <uRock> !pastebin | ABBADON
[15:03] <k0sh> iceroot_: i used php cli for some of my scripts btw, it was more fun making them than in perl :P
[15:03] <lorenz> ABBADON, hmm... have you tried using a livecd and start gparted from the CD?
[15:04] <ABBADON> lorenz, No, could I use an 8.04 live CD with a 10,04 install?
[15:04] <gogeta1> k0sh: the sudo thing i sided with  but im not gonna tell the guy how to make his own programs
[15:04] <iceroot_> k0sh: doesnt change the fact that php is evil (and that it is offtopic)
[15:04] <hporse> ZykoticK9: i got the youtube-dl script working again now. don't really see why the -b option was taken out since -f still works...
[15:05] <hporse> thx for the hint btw ^^
[15:05] <lorenz> ABBADON, well im not really sure if gparted got updated. since you are only formating a drive it shouldn't be a problem though...
[15:05] <DiploCat> lethario1, do: 'ps ax | grep gdm' then: 'kill <pids>' - there will be X and gdm-session and I think one or two more... then do 'ps ax' again, they should all die
[15:05] <gogeta1> hporse: youtube dl script lol only a half a million sites programs and url hacks do it aruldy
[15:05] <k0sh> iceroot_: it is offtopic, but php isnt evil, its faster to write proper stuff than perl because lots of helper functions , but all depends on who is writing it
[15:05] <lethario1> DiploCat: I'll try, but I bet you they will start right back up :P
[15:05] <swiss-chris> I am running a local apache2 server on ubuntu and am having some problems setting the right filesystem permissions for myself, for the www-data group etc. under /var/www. Can any one help me with this or tell me if there's another channel I should visit for this?
[15:06] <iceroot_> k0sh: python is the solution
[15:06] <hporse> gogeta1: yes, and?
[15:06] <k0sh> iceroot_: python is an eyesore :P
[15:06] <ABBADON> lorenz, Good point.  I just realized that right now.  Thank you for the help, I'll definitely try reformatting it using the LiveCD.
