[14:45] <Slart> Cadair: I'll do it manually then... =) there's xchat and xchat-gnome.. both pretty mIRC like if you like that.. then there's irssi for command line.. and quassel.. there's probably a couple of others that people will yell at me for forgetting
[14:45] <JackWinter> just got a new keyboard and mouse. anyone use hidpoint ?  any opinions ?
[14:46] <AmarokeN> nvidia accelerated graphics driver (version 173)
[14:46] <cwillu> AmarokeN, does it show 180 as available?
[14:46] <AmarokeN> no, 177
[14:46] <digital__>  h2co3 nope
[14:46] <cwillu> AmarokeN, does it show 177 as enabled?
[14:46] <AmarokeN> i got 180 on my desktop
[14:46] <Cadair> cool thanks a lot
[14:46] <cwillu> AmarokeN, don't use that :p
[14:46] <AmarokeN> it does now :p
[14:46] <cwillu> AmarokeN, okay, disable 177
[14:46] <cwillu> don't reboot yet though
[14:46] <AmarokeN> hmm?
[14:47] <cwillu> just hit disable
[14:47] <AmarokeN> it says 177 is the recommended
[14:47] <cwillu> yes, I know :p
[14:47] <h2co3> digital__: Hm... What were your last moves, before this happened?
[14:47] <AmarokeN> Well, i thought you told me to activate the 177 version, but i cancelled it
[14:47] <cwillu> AmarokeN, no, disable
[14:48] <AmarokeN> it's not enabled not atleast
[14:48] <cwillu> AmarokeN, next, close that window, and open system | admin | synaptic package manager
[14:48] <AmarokeN> Done ;
[14:48] <cwillu> AmarokeN, look for a package called nvidia-glx-180
[14:49] <AmarokeN> cant find it ,S
[14:49] <digital__>  h2co3 none that I know of  I just need the zoom feature as I have vision issue and it helps
[14:49] <cwillu> !info nvidia-glx-180
[14:49] <cwillu> bah
[14:49] <AmarokeN> nothing?
[14:49] <cwillu> AmarokeN, did you install 8.04 or 8.10?
[14:49] <AmarokeN>  i got "NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.22-pkg1.run" on my desktop tho
[14:49] <AmarokeN> how do i check :p
[14:49] <cwillu> AmarokeN, yes, don't use it though,

[14:50] <AmarokeN> it's Jennifer love hewitt, lawl
[14:50] <bukowski> there is no deb command in this site for installing that repository in intrepid.
[14:51] <cwillu> AmarokeN, lsb_release -c
[14:51] <AmarokeN> in terminal? ^
[14:51] <cwillu> yes
[14:51] <runpain2> Is there a way to use yahoo msnger games in ubuntu my wife and her daughter Who lives in wisconsin like to play litria with each other and talk they are both handicapped
[14:51] <Cr45h> AmarokeN, go under "System - About Ubuntu" and u'll see the version ;)
[14:51] <AmarokeN> intrepid?
[14:51] <cwillu> AmarokeN, k
[14:51] <cwillu> AmarokeN, in synaptic, open settings -> repositories
[14:51] <AmarokeN> 8:10 atleast
[14:51] <iPeter-> Hey, i'd would want to make shortcuts to enable and disable compiz, what was that command?
[14:52] <cwillu> AmarokeN, and under "ubuntu software", make sure main, universe, restricted and multiverse are all enabled
[14:52] <AmarokeN> wait
[14:52] <cwillu> (overkill, yes I know, no, I don't care :p)
[14:52] <AmarokeN> "repositories" hmm
[14:52] <AmarokeN> ;o
[14:52] <Slart> iPeter-: metacity --reload and compiz --reload?
[14:52] <Cr45h> alcohol, found the problem?
[14:52] <cwillu> AmarokeN, in synaptic, the settings menu, repositories
[14:52] <alcohol> Cr45h: no ):
[14:52] <iPeter-> thanks
[14:52] <AmarokeN> idk the translation for that word, lol xd
[14:52] <AmarokeN> bad english, my bad
[14:53] <cwillu> AmarokeN, second menu from the right, and the second item from the top
[14:53] <lkoekoek> Q) Im a noob, so please forgive me. When im using the command 'man' (as an example man mkdir) it will often say at the bottom of the page 'SEE ALSO mkdir(8) or something. How do I view the "(8)" part? does that make any sense?
[14:53] <Pici> lkoekoek: man 8 mkdir
[14:53] <alcohol> why does cr45h keep disconnecting? :<
[14:53] <cwillu> lkoekoek, if there's more than one mkdir manual, man 8 mkdir will take you to the specific one its referencing
[14:53] <lkoekoek> oh cool, thanks Pici
[14:53] <runpain2> i tried to install rh9.ymessenger-1.0.4-1.i386.rpm but the dependacys are not with ubuntu only red hat 9
[14:54] <cwillu> AmarokeN, find it?
[14:54] <AmarokeN> that just gets me to files > remove downloaded packages aftger install
[14:54] <AmarokeN> after'
[14:54] <cwillu> AmarokeN, okay, lets do this the command line way (see why? :p)
[14:54] <AmarokeN> yeah
[14:54] <cwillu> AmarokeN, actually
[14:54] <cwillu> bah
[14:54] <cwillu> AmarokeN, ya, close synaptic, and then in system | admin | software sources
[14:55] <tim__> i added a user via: useradd -r passenger
[14:55] <tim__> now -- how do i assign him a password
[14:55] <cwillu> AmarokeN, and sure main, universe, restricted and multiverse are all enabled in the window that opens
[14:55] <runpain2> Is there a way to use yahoo msnger games in ubuntu my wife and her daughter Who lives in wisconsin like to play litria with each other and talk they are both handicapped i tried to install rh9.ymessenger-1.0.4-1.i386.rpm but the dependacys are not with ubuntu only red hat 9
[14:55] <AmarokeN> hold on now, trying to find out which one is "software sources" ;o
[14:56] <cwillu> AmarokeN, the icon (picture) for it should be almost the same as for synaptic
[14:56] <AmarokeN> got it
[14:56] <cwillu> k
[14:56] <Titan8990> bukowski: sorry, had to go afk a min, you still around?
[14:56] <AmarokeN> and after i opened the program?
[14:57] <cwillu> AmarokeN, under ubuntu software, you should see five checkboxes?
[14:57] <bukowski> Titan8990, sure.
[14:57] <AmarokeN> yeah
[14:57] <cwillu> main, universe, restricted and multiverse, plus source code
[14:57] <cwillu> make sure they're all enabled
[14:57] <cwillu> tell me if any weren't
[14:57] <bukowski> Titan8990, is there any command to add the backport repository on synaptics?
[14:57] <AmarokeN> one weren't
[14:57] <cgegner> t
[14:57] <AmarokeN> Sourcecode
[14:57] <bukowski> Titan8990, i'm pretty confused about it.
[14:57] <AmarokeN> or w/e it's called
[14:57] <AmarokeN> the one at the bottom
[14:57] <cwillu> AmarokeN, restricted was enabled?
[14:57] <cwillu> hmm
[14:58] <cwillu> AmarokeN, okay, close that window
[14:58] <AmarokeN> sec
[14:58] <cwillu> AmarokeN, in the terminal, type: sudo aptitude update
[14:58] <Titan8990> bukowski: there was an alternate link for how to add it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[14:58] <AmarokeN> wait not
[14:58] <AmarokeN> nowÄ
[14:58] <AmarokeN> now*
[14:59] <AmarokeN> Sourcecode can't be enabled, no checkbox isn't working correct
[14:59] <Titan8990> bukowski: you either use the GUI described there or you add it to /etc/apt/sources.list
[14:59] <Veritas718> hey i am trying to do a super multi boot- windows xp vista windows 7 osx86 and ubuntu. but i want them all running virtually and at x64 i tried esx server and that royally sucked bacause i have one great computer with the video card and i want to play games within the main os I am thinking about using vista and vmware to get all the other o/ss at once any reccomendations
[14:59] <cwillu> AmarokeN, that's fine
[14:59] <digital__> Ok I have here a older computer and would like the zoom feature the one where super/mousewheel up to zoom in and mouse wheel back to well zoom out . But I cant enable desktop effects with this older somputer is there a way to get this done?
[14:59] <Veritas718> i want the best performace
[14:59] <AmarokeN> just changes colour, but no "v" in the box
[14:59] <Veritas718> i have a 9800gt and a xeon 3110 at 3.6 ghz
[14:59] <cwillu> digital_, you'd need to get a new video card for it
[15:00] <cwillu> digital_, I think there maybe some software that can give you a similar feature, but I don't know what it's called
[15:00] <hRedBeard1> Can anyone recommend a good Remote Desktop manager package?
[15:00] <Titan8990> bukowski: and I guess you could do with a command using echo and append: echo 'deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list
[15:00] <bcgrown> i am on ubuntu 8.10.  I have bluetooth working for file transfers etc.   Can anybody tell me why "sdptool search" or "sdptool browse"   just says "Searching..."  or "Browsing..."  and then nothing?
[15:00] <AmarokeN> it came up something about software not updated?
[15:00] <cwillu> AmarokeN, that's fine, just close that window, and run " sudo aptitude update " in a terminal
[15:00] <digital__> this pc isnt worth a graphics card
[15:01] <AmarokeN> Updating...
[15:01] <AmarokeN> Done
[15:01] <cwillu> digital_, doesn't have to be a good graphics card, it just needs to be something made in the last year or two
[15:01] <bukowski> Titan8990, i type this into command line and says permission denied
[15:01] <cwillu> digital_, cheapest one you can buy will work fine
[15:01] <cwillu> AmarokeN, after that's finished, type aptitude install nvidia-glx-180
[15:02] <Titan8990> bukowski: that was just an example, I'm not sure that syntax is correct. You have to use sudo to edit config files in the /etc directory
[15:02] <zinguango> hola
[15:02] <AmarokeN> 100 years to install it ;o
[15:02] <cwillu> bukowski, http://xkcd.com/149/
[15:02] <cwillu> :p
[15:02] <SURFkees> If something is started via inittab on a tty, is there a way when I login via SSH to get the console output to me? To take control of that tty?
[15:03] <bukowski> Titan8990, sudo kate does not work for me! how can i edit as root?
[15:03] <user12345> hello. i have following problem with vmware player (both player window and machine window).
[15:03] <user12345> window disappearing after opening the menu and clicking somewhere right in menu bar while menu is opened.
[15:03] <user12345> machine continue working, but there is no way to make it active. there is no icon in task bar and no in the alt+tab switcher.
[15:03] <cwillu> AmarokeN, it's basically the same thing as you have on your desktop, but set up to put things in the right places for ubuntu, and generally not muck things up
[15:03] <Titan8990> bukowski: try: gksu gate
[15:03] <Titan8990> bukowski: try: err kate
[15:03] <AmarokeN> wow, neat :)
[15:04] <bukowski> it works :)
[15:04] <AmarokeN> yay, done
[15:04] <cwillu> AmarokeN, once it's installed, I _think_ you just need to reboot, and then you can enable compiz
[15:04] <akina> hi! what could be the problem when I use ./configure and have this error: failed program confdefs.h. I'm installing zoneminder
[15:04] <bukowski> Titan8990, ah... it doesnt work.
[15:04] <AmarokeN> one last question: Chat program for msn?, Kopete?, Pidgin?  :P all in one program..
[15:06] <bukowski> Titan8990, it works! now what deb i add?
[15:06] <Cr45h> btw, i've a question... what u can say about skype?
[15:06] <Slart> akina: you've installed the build-essential package?
[15:06] <[tggrBot]> does anyone have an reccommendations of a windows user switching to linux hoping to Use c?
[15:06] <Cr45h> i've installed it but, once i'm connected, i can't see the userlist...
[15:07] <Cr45h> and it seems to freeze
[15:07] <AmarokeN> in order to start wow via Wine, how? ^
[15:07] <o7> tggrBot: pm
[15:07] <cwillu> AmarokeN, search google
[15:07] <Slart> [tggrBot]: gcc is nice.. you'll have to find an editor you feel comfortable.. take a look at anjuta.. unless of course, you like vim/emacs or such
[15:07] <Pici> !appdb | AmarokeN
[15:07] <AmarokeN> sure bacon ;)
[15:07] <cwillu> AmarokeN, "ubuntu wow wine" should find a guide
[15:08] <Titan8990> bukowski: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports   the one for your distro on that page
[15:08] <carpii> can i use rsync to completely backup a ubuntu install?
[15:08] <tim__> from the command line -- i have created a user via useradd -r myuser -- is there an automated way to make the home directory, etc?
[15:08] <burg> !tell burg nvidia 8200
[15:08] <carpii> and then just reformat and copy all the files back later?
[15:08] <burg> !tell burg asus
[15:08] <tim__> with all the standard files .bash, etc
[15:08] <Cr45h> AmarokeN, remember... if u wanna start a 3D app such wow, u've to disable compiz ;)
[15:08] <TakeABow> Is apache installed on hardy heron by default?
[15:08] <Titan8990> bukowski: same syntax, i believe it goes on per line like: deb url: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu main
[15:08] <Giraffe> !wpa
[15:08] <carpii> tim, doesnt useradd have an option to create home dir?
[15:08] <bukowski> Titan8990, i am on 8.10 :) there is only until 8.04
[15:09] <Giraffe> !networkmanager
[15:09] <carpii> TakeABow, its in the repos, I dont know if its there by default
[15:09] <tim__> so the user is already created -- how do i build their home directory ?
[15:09] <cwillu> TakeABow, not by default, no
[15:09] <cwillu> TakeABow, it's in the repo, easy to install
[15:09] <cwillu> !apache
[15:09] <Titan8990> bukowski: 8.10 is on there
[15:10] <tim__> should i delete the user and start over?
[15:10] <carpii> sure why not
[15:10] <cwillu> Cr45h, wow coexists just fine with compiz
[15:10] <robindesbois05> allo
[15:10] <carpii> or just create the dir manually
[15:10] <carpii> im not really sure what it is you want to copy into the dir
[15:10] <cwillu> Cr45h, the whole idea of aiglx is that you can run nested glx apps
[15:10] <tim__> carpii, i take it you are talking to me?
[15:10] <bukowski> archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu intrepid-backports main universe multiverse restricted :) i have it already enabled!
[15:10] <carpii> yes tim, sorry
[15:10] <Cr45h> cwillu, oh... dunno wow, but i tried to start Urban Terror and Warcraft 3 just to try and with compiz enabled i had problems...
[15:11] <bukowski> Titan8990,  archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu intrepid-backports main universe multiverse restricted :) i have it already enabled!
[15:11] <carpii> im on windows now so I cant really advise you any better
[15:11] <cwillu> Cr45h, some drivers may have issues, but it's a driver issue, not a compiz issue
[15:11] <bukowski> Titan8990, but i have no this ath5k thing on my synaptics! :(
[15:11] <cwillu> Cr45h, nvidia's work fine generally, intel works fine too afaik
[15:11] <Cr45h> cwillu, yep it could be, i'm on a laptop with intel card so.. i can't expect it works as i wish :P
[15:12] <carpii> tim, pass -m when you create the user
[15:12] <Titan8990> bukowski: run: sudo apt-get update
[15:12] <cwillu> Cr45h, I've got a nv7300gt that runs wow fine, while running compiz in a 2560x1024 screen
[15:12] <cwillu> (dual 1280x1024's)
[15:12] <tim__> carpii, thanks
[15:12] <carpii> np
[15:12] <Cr45h> cwillu, great!!
[15:12] <cwillu> bukowski, you need to install linux-restricted-modules or something like that
[15:13] <bcgrown> is anybody here able to help me set up bluetooth sync for my phone?
[15:13] <bukowski> ehm... the other time i did it it was just one command in the prompt...
[15:13] <cwillu> bukowski, apt-get install linux-restricted-modules is one command in the prompt :p
[15:13] <bukowski> :D
[15:13] <Cr45h> bcgrown, can't... i've problems me too trying to detect bluetooth card on my laptop.. :/
[15:14] <bcgrown> cr45h: :(  my usb dongle was detected right away so i'm afraid i haven't got any clues for you
[15:14] <AmaroKeN> Guess who's back with more problems! :P
[15:14]  * cwillu hides
[15:14] <Titan8990> bukowski: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-intrepid
[15:14] <AmaroKeN> seriously, how do i configure Compiz? ;o
[15:15] <cwillu> what does it do when you start it?
[15:15] <cwillu> shouldn't need configuration really
[15:15] <Titan8990> AmaroKeN: ccsm
[15:15] <AmaroKeN> ccsm?
[15:15] <cwillu> Titan8990, lets establish that it's actually working first :p
[15:15] <cwillu> AmaroKeN, is it working at all?
[15:15] <Pici> !ccsm | AmaroKeN
[15:15] <e3co> AmaroKeN:  Add/remove Compiz settings manager
[15:15] <AmaroKeN> Wobbly wiiie
[15:15] <Titan8990> AmaroKeN: compizconfig settings manager
[15:15] <cwillu> AmaroKeN, is it working at all?  ccsm won't help you if compiz doesn't start in the first place
[15:15] <Titan8990> cwillu: the backport repository?
[15:15] <kouya> can someone explain how i install moblock?
[15:16] <e3co> what is moblock?
[15:16] <cwillu> Titan8990, no, AmaroKeN
[15:16] <AmaroKeN> Well, my windows are all wobbly, so yes?
[15:16] <cwillu> AmaroKeN, okay, good
[15:16] <cwillu> AmaroKeN, install ccsm, and play :p
[15:16] <cwillu> AmaroKeN, actually, kill compiz if you ran it from the terminal, and turn it on via system | preferences | appearances instead
[15:16] <AmaroKeN> sudo apt get ccsm?
[15:16] <cwillu> AmaroKeN, (appearances | effects | normal or extra)
[15:17] <Pici> AmaroKeN: see the message from ubottu above
[15:17] <cwillu> AmaroKeN, then it'll actually start when you log in, rather than you having to run compiz by hand each time
[15:17] <AmaroKeN> how do i kill compiz?
[15:17] <Titan8990> AmaroKeN: compizconfig-settings-manager
[15:17] <cwillu> AmaroKeN, did you run it from the terminal?
[15:17] <Jack_Sparrow> AmaroKeN You trying to setup cube etc?
[15:17] <AmaroKeN> yeah ;p
[15:17] <AmaroKeN> Jack, yes
[15:17] <cwillu> AmaroKeN, ctrl+c
[15:17] <Jack_Sparrow> AmaroKeN Install ccsm  sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager Next go to system...pref..advanced desktop effects....  On the first page  put check next to rotate cube and desktop cube.. dbl click general options... up closer to the top...  click on desktop size  and set them to 4, 1 and 1  top to bottom... ctrl+alt+(Left Mouse Button) then move mouse
[15:18] <e3co> I want to change my "extra" effects to say "are you out of your mind?" is that possible? are those kinds of things binaries?
[15:18] <linuxman410> kouya look at this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MoBlock
[15:18] <kouya> thanks!
[15:18] <e3co> or scripts?
[15:18] <Jack_Sparrow> AmaroKeN For Animations like Burning windows..Open CCSM  Under Effects.. Enable Animations and Animations add-ons... Close CCSM, Reopen CCSM, Double click Animations.. You will see tabs for Open, Close, Minimize etc... On the tab marked Open Select.. New.. Where it says open Effect Select... Burn.. Set Duration to 150.. For Window Match.. Type (type=Normal | Menu | PopupMenu | DropdownMenu | Dialog | ModalDialog)
[15:18] <cwillu> e3co, look at ubottu's comment to AmaroKeN above
[15:18] <Pici> e3co: Further compiz help is in #compiz, they can help with that
[15:18] <AmaroKeN> Well, installing the CCSM now
[15:19] <AmaroKeN> there!
[15:19] <AmaroKeN> ty
[15:19] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[15:19] <kouya> well first time i use key ring. (I like to know what happen when i do something in terminal)  what does keyring or "gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net --recv 9072870B " do?
[15:20] <e3co> cwillu:  I don't see anything wrong with asking a general on topic question. A simple I don't know would have done fine.
[15:20] <neurobuntu> kouya, it uploads your key to the keyserver
[15:20] <cwillu> e3co, eh?  I told you the answer
[15:20] <cwillu> !ccsm | e3co
[15:21] <e3co> I can change what text is in Appearance Programs taps with ccsm?
[15:21] <Pici> e3co: taps?
[15:22] <kouya> what is "my key" and what is it used for?
[15:22] <cwillu> """If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties"""
[15:22] <e3co> Yeah you know how it says "Extra" effects. I want to change what it says from extra to "are you crazy?"
[15:23] <cwillu> e3co, could you read what ubottu just messaged you?  ccsm is exactly what you're asking for, I'm not going to say it again :p
[15:23] <cwillu> e3co, there's a further step beyond ccsm, but ccsm is the step after 'extra'
[15:23] <Pici> e3co: No, you can't do that.  That would involve modifying the source code which is beyond the scope of this channel
[15:23] <cwillu> the step after that is 'download the source, and modify stuff'
[15:24] <cwillu> e3co, ccsm allows extensive customization to the compiz settings
[15:24] <Pici> kouya: Its used for getting key 9072870B from that keyserver.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Privacy_Guard

[15:32] <nero> say, if I have a directory, with a bunch of text files, and sub-directories also containing a bunch of text files, and I want to concatenate them all together (order doesn't matter).. can anyone think of a way to do this?  Unfortunately cat doesn't have a "recursive" option...
[15:32] <kouya> '/etc/apt/sources.list' what is this file used for?
[15:33] <Titan8990> kouya: it contains your repositories
[15:33] <Jimmymaniac> Hi. Quick question: On redhad-derived systems there's a file, /etc/redhat-release, which tells you the OS release you're running. Is there a similar file on ubuntu?
[15:33] <bukowski> Titan8990, i have added the repository, and still cant find ath5k package in there...
[15:33] <sarmisak> nero: you can write a one liner
[15:34] <trailbrain> How do I browse samba network shares in Xubuntu?
[15:34] <Guest82365> how can i open file.pak
[15:34] <cwillu> Jimmymaniac, lsb-release
[15:34] <nero> sarmisak, any tips on what that one line would be? ;)
[15:34] <Titan8990> bukowski: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-intrepid
[15:34] <Jack_Sparrow> cwillu lsb_release -a
[15:34] <sarmisak> nero: for i in `find | grep \.txt`; do cat $1 >> newfile.txt; done
[15:34] <cwillu> Jack_Sparrow, he wanted the file name, I gave him the file name :p
[15:34] <bukowski> Titan8990, i did it.
[15:34] <nero> sarmisak, thanks.. I'll give that a try.. :)
[15:34] <cwillu> /etc/lsb-release is the file in question Jimmymaniac
[15:34] <sarmisak> nero: no problem.
[15:34] <cwillu> Jimmymaniac, should exist on redhat too, actually
[15:35] <Jimmymaniac> cwillu: that's perfect :)
[15:35] <Titan8990> bukowski: and result of: lsmod | grep ath5k
[15:35] <bukowski>  lsmod | grep ath5k returns nothing.
[15:36] <Titan8990> bukowski: sudo modprobe ath5k

[15:37] <dgetsman> hello everyone.  I'm running ubuntu 8.10 server on a machine here and the periodic updates that are being installed (ie the vim security patches that were released in the past 48 hours, etc) are playing havoc with my IDS with constantly changing checksums for system binaries at random times.  does anybody know of a way to disable this and enable these updates only when i manually run something?  I'm not even sure what cronjob/script is invoking th
[15:37] <dgetsman> my experience with ubuntu is primarily with desktop, to this point, and different oses used for servers :P
[15:37]  * dgetsman is back.
[15:38] <Haldaug> Hello, I have a problem with nautilus: When I start a new session, the "find-as-you-type" search doesn't work until I have used the ctrl+f first.

[15:39] <shiMMer> how can i open file.pak
[15:39] <kouya> made it, installed it. Thanks! (but i really didn't understand what i did). do i need to delete the key if i remove the program again?
[15:40] <Haldaug> I'm on 8.10, btw
[15:40]  * dgetsman is gone. configuration changes
[15:41] <adam> is there a better way to clean up old/unused files/packages other than apt-get clean/autoclean/autoremove?
[15:41] <cwillu> adam, not terribly
[15:42] <cwillu> adam, both synaptic and aptitude will do such cleanup automatically though
[15:42] <fosco_> adam: gtkorphan
[15:42] <cq> who should own directories under /var/www? www-data:root?
[15:43] <Haldaug> Anyone got any thoughts about my problem?
[15:43] <neurobuntu> for some reason I can't unlock the Users Settings pannel, when I run it from the terminal I get the following error: ** (users-admin:2761): CRITICAL **: Unable to find session for cookie
[15:44] <achadwick> cq: doesn't matter really, provided it's all readable to world. But www-data:www-data g+rwx is traditional for any dir the webserver is expected to have read/write access to.
[15:45] <adam> fosco, that works, thanks
[15:47] <cq> achadwick: thanks, that did it...

[15:48] <Haldaug> TakeABow: REPOs are servers where you can download software via the apt-system

[15:48] <TakeABow> If not, how do I install apache?

[15:50] <TakeABow> Can someone walk me through installing this LAMP thing?

[15:50] <Slart> what is the status on bluetooth and intrepid? is it still broken? will it get better in jaunty? is it worth the effort to hunt down patched source for bluez and whatnot?

[15:50] <Slart> !bluetooth
[15:50] <Jack_Sparrow> TakeABow Please start by reading the basics on the link provided

[15:51] <TakeABow> The like code?
[15:51] <Haldaug> I have a problem with the "find-as-you-type" feature in nautilus. When I have a new session, nautilus doesn't search through the folder when I start to type. If I do a search using ctrl+f, the "search-as..."-feature works for the rest of the session.

[15:53] <holyguyver> Is Baughn here?
[15:54] <holyguyver> Flannel, it is still doing the badblock check, how long should it take?
[15:55] <cwillu> holyguyver, depending on the size of the drive, up to several hours
[15:55] <biouser> evince + mozplugger, acroread mosplugin is dead in jaunty for the moment
[15:55] <cwillu> holyguyver, possibly longer if you've actually got bad blocks
[15:55] <holyguyver> cwillu, it is 500GB & it has abeen about 10 hours.
[15:55] <filthpig> hey all. In Emesene, is there some way I can force incoming text to one specific color? I'm using a black theme in ubuntu/gnome now and since most people write with black text it gets a bit bothersome to read ;) (got no reply over at #emesene)
[15:56] <holyguyver> cwillu, Yes I have bad blocks
[15:56] <holyguyver> cwillu, A year & a half ago I dropped this hardrive from 4 feet.
[15:56] <cwillu> holyguyver, sounds like alot of bad blocks, indeed
[15:56] <TakeABow> Hello again
[15:56] <TakeABow> When I type in
[15:56] <TakeABow> "sudo tasksel install lamp-server"
[15:56] <TakeABow> It says
[15:56] <FloodBot2> TakeABow: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:56] <TakeABow> Aptitude failed?
[15:57] <cwillu> holyguyver, you're not hoping to be able to continue using the drive after this are you?
[15:57] <cwillu> holyguyver, aside from backing up whatever you can
[15:57] <holyguyver> cwillu, Yes I am hoping to continue using it.
[15:57] <cwillu> holyguyver, you shouldn't...
[15:57] <kantxx> hey all.. im having an issue w/ networkmanger and wifi.. wpa_supplicant doesnt appear to be running at all
[15:57] <cwillu> holyguyver, odds are you're going to have more and more corruption (i.e., new blocks going bad)
[15:57] <holyguyver> cwillu, there is no need to backup the stuff on this harddrive, it was fulled backed up a year & a half ago when it fell.

[15:58] <cwillu> holyguyver, spending 50 bucks on a new 500gb drive is honestly the best option
[15:58] <cwillu> holyguyver, the more paranoid among us wouldn't consider using a drive with a single known bad block :p
[15:58] <TakeABow> Hello, in the terminal, I type in "sudo tasksel install lamp-server" and it says "aptitude failed". Any help?
[15:58] <holyguyver> cwillu, I do not have 5$ to my name, so the only way I can get another one is if you buy me one with your money. Are you willng to?
[15:58] <JackWinter> what would you guys reccomend for adding logitech kb/mouse support to 8.04 ?  tried hidpoint which seems to support my wave keyboard, but not mx revolution mouse.
[15:58] <cwillu> holyguyver, , (although I'm not sure that's practical in this day and age)
[15:59] <Titan8990> TakeABow: skip that and start at the Installing Apache2 section
[15:59] <cwillu> holyguyver, you have a problem then :/
[15:59] <cym> hello evrybody !
[15:59] <Haldaug> No help for me here, then?
[16:00] <cwillu> holyguyver, check what smartctl  -a /dev/<drive> says about it
[16:00] <holyguyver> cwillu, see that is why I need to use this drive, I need to use it for the next 3 months until I can save up the money to buy a new one.
[16:00] <cwillu> holyguyver, (apt-get install smartmontools if it's not installed)
[16:00] <holyguyver> cwillu, I did that over 5 days ago. What do you wish to know?
[16:00] <cwillu> holyguyver, do you have the output still?
[16:00] <holyguyver> I pastebined it 5 days ago to the people in this room
[16:00] <cym> how can I see the disks on my machine ? there are 2 ATA disks, one 80BG the other 160BG; the 160GB is bootable, there is a ubuntu/gnome on it but I cannot see the other disk
[16:00] <Brack10> mwas: it's exactly like the one on windows
[16:01] <Brack10> oops nm
[16:01] <cwillu> Holmen, smartctl -t short /dev/<drive>, and about 15 seconds later, the output oof smartctl -a /dev/<drive>
[16:01] <michaelfavia> i just installed kde-nightly to test out kde4.2 but i dont have network connectivity in kde and i cant find a network manager of any type. do i need to install one?
[16:01] <Titan8990> cym: use: sudo fdisk -l
[16:01] <holyguyver> cwillu, I pastebinned it 5 days ago to the people in this room, what about the output do you wish to know?
[16:01] <cym> ok Titan8990 thx
[16:01] <cwillu> holyguyver, the output of the test I just told you to run
[16:02] <cym> great !!! thank you Titan8990 !!
[16:02] <cwillu> holyguyver, which is more than just running smartctl -a would give you (the -t test starts the test, the -a will include the outcome of that test after it runs)
[16:02] <holyguyver> cwillu, I know, I am asking what about the output do you want to see, what information from it do you want to know?
[16:02] <Titan8990> cym: np
[16:02] <cwillu> holyguyver, I want to see the output of a short read test
[16:02] <Holmen> cwillu: highlight the right person next time =)
[16:02] <holyguyver> cwillu, I will tell you the resault, I have thousands of bad sectors.
[16:02] <cwillu> Holmen, sorry :p
[16:03] <holyguyver> cwillu, I just gave you the answer as best as I am going to give it to you.
[16:03] <cym> mmh... the command to mount the disk and see it in system file ??
[16:04] <cwillu> holyguyver, you don't seem very keen on helping me, I can't look up a pastebin from 5 days, and there's _lots_ of useful information in a smartctl about the expected lifetime of a drive, that isn't simply reducable to 'how many bad sectors'
[16:04] <holyguyver> cwillu, so if you wish to know something other then the number of bad sectors, then let me know what it is you wish to know?
[16:05] <Titan8990> cym: sudo mkdir /media/sdxx          mount /dev/sdxx /media/sdxx
[16:05] <kantxx> hey all.. im having an issue w/ networkmanger and wifi.. wpa_supplicant doesnt appear to be running at all
[16:05] <holyguyver> cwillu, I am sorry but I do not have the pastebin link from 5 days ago & I cannot run any tests on the drive at the minute as I am wiping & reformatting it as we speak
[16:05] <Titan8990> cym: sorry, that should be: sudo mount /dev/sdxx /media/sdxx
[16:06] <cwillu> holyguyver, smartctl -a can run without affecting any other activity (it's reading data from the controller, not the platter)
[16:06] <cym> OK Titan8990 I tried just mount (w.o. mkdir) and it did not work ! Thx again
[16:06] <Titan8990> cym: ah, np
[16:06] <cwillu> holyguyver, even a test run can run concurrently with other activity, the drive will simply suspend the test until there's a free moment
[16:06] <holyguyver> cwillu, then I shall indeed give you the output, give me a mminute to do so
[16:06] <^Cheeky> hi, does anyone know of any good media player, other than vlc. that supports , subtitiles ? i used vlc but the subtitles pack i has 2 files .. i think for cd1 or cd2 , vlc plays it.. but then when i load the second subtitles file, it not synced with the movie and i got to guess .. where i should forward to, i tried, bsplayer+zoomplayer, under wine, it installs but does not work correctly . is there a media player, that ubuntu could use

[16:08] <cwillu> jpcooper, moving .gconf and .gnome* elsewhere (so you can restore them if necessary) will do it
[16:08]  * dgetsman is back.
[16:08] <jpcooper> thank you cwillu
[16:08] <Titan8990> ^Cheeky: took a couple tries but I got it
[16:08] <cwillu> jpcooper, you'll need to use sudo to do it though
[16:08] <jpcooper> sure
[16:08] <^Cheeky> Titan8990, umm.. my audio codecs work m8 ..
[16:09] <TakeABow> How do I install Apache?

[16:09] <TakeABow> I can't install that lamp thing, I need help
[16:09] <Titan8990> TakeABow: that installs apache2
[16:09] <oCean_> !info Apache2
[16:09] <holyguyver> cwillu, so far all it has done is this ">"

[16:10] <TakeABow> How do I install MySQL?
[16:11] <Titan8990> TakeABow: you need to read that article
[16:11] <cwillu> holyguyver, it needs to be run against the actual device
[16:11] <cwillu> holyguyver, /dev/something
[16:11] <TakeABow> Could you just give me the line I need to type in?
[16:11] <cwillu> holyguyver, and /'s, not \'s
[16:11] <cwillu> holyguyver, backslashes are used for escaping on unix, not for paths
[16:11] <Titan8990> TakeABow: no because then you won't learn
[16:11] <cwillu> holyguyver, \n for a literal line break, for instance
[16:12] <TakeABow> I typed in "sudo tasksel install lamp-server" is that all I need to type in too install the whole thing?
[16:12] <jpcooper> sadly I'm still getting the same errors. Something about the power manager not being properly installed. This all started after an ubuntu upgrade
[16:12] <oCean_> TakeABow: learn howto install packages on ubuntu
[16:12] <Titan8990> TakeABow: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingSoftware
[16:12] <cwillu> holyguyver, so, if it's the first drive in the system, smartctl -a /dev/sda would be the right line
[16:13] <Titan8990> TakeABow: skip that step.....
[16:13] <holyguyver> cwillu, Alright I have the resaults I will pastebin them
[16:13] <cwillu> holyguyver, /dev/sdb for the second physical drive if applicable, etc

I'm looking to expand it across the country.  visit http://trailbrain.com or email me<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[16:18] <cwillu> holyguyver, okay, ya.  Usb enclosures unfortunately don't usually support smart monitoring

[16:19] <M4rotku> L|nuxPS2, do u know of any good ones?

[16:19] <kqr> how can i access lvm partitions in ubuntu?
[16:19] <cwillu> holyguyver, the fact that it's on usb could also account for the badblock scan taking so long
[16:19] <oCean_> !grub | anki1
[16:19] <cwillu> holyguyver, is it a sata drive internally?
[16:19] <L|nuxPS2> m$rotku yeah, devede
[16:19] <anki1> No i did not lost grub
[16:19] <anki1> it is there
[16:19] <anki1> opensolaris is still there
[16:19] <holyguyver> cwillu, I do not know, but I take it you are going to give me a command to find out the answer.
[16:19] <cwillu> holyguyver, or rather, if it's sata, do you have a sata port on your motherboard, and if it's pata (ide), do you have one of those available?

[16:20] <gnat_x> anyway, what's the standard sources.list line with multiverse look like? thanks.
[16:20] <[tggrBot]> Im rebootingto complete ubuntu install
[16:20] <cwillu> AmaroKeN, no, sorry
[16:20]  * cwillu is a gnome + banshee fanboy :p
[16:20] <holyguyver> cwillu, also there is no way in hgell I would plug it into my mother board, that is too scary for me.
[16:20] <Titan8990> !multiuniverse
[16:20] <[tggrBot]> !titan
[16:21] <melt01> how can i go about uninstalling/reinstalling my sound card driver? i'm a little lost
[16:21] <cwillu> !multiverse | Titan8990
[16:21] <[tggrBot]> !GTK
[16:21] <anki1> I installed opensolaris on a system running windows+ubuntu.Now windows and opensolaris r there in the bootloader list but ubuntu is not there
[16:21] <gnat_x> thanks!
[16:21] <[tggrBot]> !virus
[16:21]  * gnat_x goies to read
[16:21] <cwillu> holyguyver, it's not hard, just don't do it on a carpeted floor, and try not to touch anything other than the edges of the device
[16:21] <cwillu> holyguyver, but...
[16:21] <cym> thanks for yr hlp Titan8990 ! bye
[16:21] <cwillu> holyguyver, what kind of enclosure is it?
[16:22] <cwillu> holyguyver, (brandname etc)
[16:22] <Titan8990> cym: np
[16:22] <holyguyver> cwillu,  external harddrive that says if I remove it the warrenty is void. & it's brand name was given to you in the pastebin I gave you, it is a SimpleTech Simpledrive.
[16:22] <Titan8990> anki1: are they all on the same drive?
[16:23] <cwillu> ah, missed that
[16:23] <cwillu> holyguyver, I think you already voided the warranty when you dropped it :p
[16:23] <L|nuxPS2> M4rotku, did devede work for you?
[16:23] <anki1> @Titan8990--no
[16:23] <cwillu> holyguyver, pastebin me the output of hal-device
[16:23] <ciflos75> ••••••••• Mancava Solo  ciflos75  Su #ubuntu ! •••••••••
[16:24] <L|nuxPS2> brb peoples
[16:24] <holyguyver> cwillu, beyond that I voided the warrenty when I sent it to Ontrack a year & a half ago & for 2,600$ they recovered my data & put it onto a 1tb harddrive.
[16:24] <M4rotku> L|nuxPS2, i haven't tried it yet, i'm about to
[16:24] <ciflos75> ciao
[16:24] <ciflos75> hi
[16:24] <Titan8990> anki1: then there is a good chance you have installed grub on both drives. You should be able hit a key to bring up a boot menu and select the drive ubuntu is on.
[16:24] <MrEgg964> Hi. From Terminal, how can I download a package _without_ installing it?
[16:24] <ciflos75> there is italian people?
[16:24] <cwillu> holyguyver, ... ouch
[16:24] <Titan8990> anki1: is solaris and ubuntu on the same drive?
[16:24] <cwillu> holyguyver, presumably you learned that an extra drive with nightly backups is a much cheaper alternative? :p
[16:24] <gordonjcp> MrEgg964: apt-get install -d <thing>
[16:25] <ciflos75> there is someone that can help me with ubuntu?
[16:25] <anki1> @Titan8990---------all os r on different drives and i installed botloader on my hd0
[16:25] <holyguyver> cwillu, what do I do to get you that output of the hal?
[16:25] <cwillu> !ask | ciflos75
[16:25] <gordonjcp> MrEgg964: say "apt-get help" ;-)
[16:25] <Iraimbilanja> Hi
[16:25] <Iraimbilanja> In Ibex, Totem is unable to play a DVD
[16:25] <MrEgg964> thanks
[16:25] <cwillu> holyguyver, install pastebinit (apt-get install pastebinit), and then run hal-device | pastebinit
[16:25] <Iraimbilanja> It only shows the title menu, but nothing is clickable
[16:25] <usr13> ciflos75: You're in the right place.  Go with your questions.
[16:25] <Iraimbilanja> Any hints ?
[16:25] <ciflos75> I have istall ubuntu on my pc
[16:25] <ciflos75> and now
[16:25] <holyguyver> cwillu, the only extra drive I have is this broken one that I am working on now, my 1tbdrive has no backup.
[16:25] <doctormo> I dont suppose anyone has a wizzard pen tablet they'd like to test a new packaged driver?
[16:26] <SEJeff> Iraimbilanja, Try installing vlc
[16:26] <Pici> !enter | ciflos75
[16:26] <ciflos75> the ubuntu asll me...a username and a passw
[16:26] <holyguyver> cwillu, I installed pastebinit over 2 years ago.
[16:26] <gordonjcp> ciflos75: you would have set a username and password when you installed it
[16:26] <cwillu> holyguyver, okay, so, hal-device | pastebinit
[16:26] <ciflos75> yes
[16:26] <Medalgod> hey guys. Can you tell me, on the live disks what do i have to override the xorg.conf configuration with a hand written one (because you obvsly can't write to the optical disk). Is there a ramdisk that the OS mounts or something...?
[16:26] <ciflos75> I put the same words
[16:26] <usr13> ciflos75: That is ok.
[16:27] <cwillu> holyguyver, bah, pastebinit's docs lied
[16:27] <dual> How do I kill the sudo process
[16:27] <ciflos75> now...
[16:27] <SEJeff> Medalgod, yes it uses a squashfs union mount
[16:27] <dual> It uses 100% cpu
[16:27] <cwillu> holyguyver, okay, so, hal-device | pastebinit -i -
[16:27] <Pici> ciflos75: You
[16:27] <ciflos75> i put my user
[16:27] <usr13> ciflos75: You can change the password afterwords.
[16:27] <ciflos75> how?
[16:27] <SEJeff> Medalgod, You can write to /etc/X11/xorg.conf on the livecd. Save the file and hit CTRL ALT Backspace.
[16:27] <dual> A sudo process on my computer uses 100% CPU. How do I kill it?
[16:27] <gordonjcp> dual: that sounds a bit odd
[16:27] <Iraimbilanja> SEJeff, that works - thanks. I was hoping to get Totem working as I like it better but oh well.
[16:27] <gordonjcp> dual: it's probably something called through sudo
[16:28] <cwillu> dual, what process?  (after the sudo)
[16:28] <Medalgod> SEJeff, it gives me "error writing xorg.conf: Permission denied"
[16:28] <SEJeff> Iraimbilanja, You might try setting up the mediabuntu repositories and installing libdvdcss
[16:28] <holyguyver> cwillu,  hal-device | pastebinit -i Invalid arguments!
[16:28] <dual> gordonjcp: WHen I run "top", it says sudo
[16:28] <SEJeff> Medalgod, sudo ...
[16:28] <gordonjcp> dual: you could use "sudo kill <process id>"
[16:28] <cwillu> holyguyver, "hal-device | pastebinit -i -"
[16:28] <cwillu> need the extra dash (means to read from the pipe instead of a file)
[16:28] <dual> gordonjcp: Didnt work
[16:29] <Medalgod> sejeff: nvm problem solved u were rite, not root... not used to sudo... ges ill set up a root account later :p
[16:29] <gordonjcp> dual: what didn't?
[16:29] <dual> gordonjcp: killing sudo
[16:29] <dual> Still runs like hell
[16:29] <ciflos75> when i put first the username and after the pass....i see this message: incorret username or password..letter must be typed in the currect case
[16:29] <holyguyver> cwillu, the only extra drive I have is this broken one that I am working on now, my 1tbdrive has no backup.
[16:29] <anr78> I have a bunch of mp3 files and want to put the filename into id3. any apps to recommend for this?
[16:29] <cwillu> holyguyver, yes, I got that
[16:29] <ciflos75> i don't know what i can do
[16:29] <cwillu> holyguyver, "hal-device | pastebinit -i -"
[16:29] <melt01> how can i uninstall/reinstall the driver for my sound card? the card is sblive! value ct4780, chip tritech tr28602... i'm not really sure how to find it in synaptic, i just wanna uninstall it then reinstall to see if fixes a problem
[16:30] <cwillu> holyguyver, need the extra dash (means to read from the pipe instead of a file)
[16:30] <SEJeff> Medalgod, No need. It is a cool security trick. Just do "sudo -i" and you get a rootshell
[16:30] <Iraimbilanja> SEJeff, Did that but the dvd links are still not clickable. At any rate, it's unlikely that the title screen would be displayed at all, if the lack of libdvdcss was the culprit, isn't it ?
[16:30] <oCean_> ciflos75: you need to enter the username/password combination you specified in install process
[16:30] <gordonjcp> dual: what is the PID of the sudo process?
[16:30] <holyguyver> cwillu, I did that whenever you first corrected my argum,ent, but I am waitng for the output, I cannot give you the pastebin until it gives it to me
[16:30] <dual> 10737
[16:30] <ciflos75> how ocean'
[16:30] <melt01> in fact im not even sure if thats where i should be looking
[16:30] <cwillu> holyguyver, k
[16:30] <cwillu> holyguyver, it's biggish, might take a little time
[16:30] <SEJeff> Iraimbilanja, gstreamer0.10 still sucks with dvds. It is a longstanding regression over gstreamer0.8. That is why I suggested vlc...
[16:30] <oCean_> ciflos75: unix/linux is case sensitive. So remember what user you specified during install
[16:30] <dual> sudo kill 10737 doesn't work
[16:30] <dual> Hmm
[16:30] <SEJeff> The fluendo guys working on it are sceptical because of lawsuits
[16:30] <SEJeff> and fud
[16:31] <dual> I'm rebooting, gordon
[16:31] <gordonjcp> dual: okay, that's a bit odd, but not totally surprising
[16:31] <ciflos75> there is a way to bypass this passage?
[16:31] <gordonjcp> dual: hang on, can you see it in ps -ax?
[16:31] <oCean_> ciflos75: no
[16:31] <ciflos75> so
[16:31] <ciflos75> i must disinstall
[16:31] <holyguyver> cwillu, http://pastebin.com/f7c06a3ce
[16:31] <cwillu> thanks
[16:31] <n8tuser> dual  its sudo  kill -15  pid   you missed the kill signal #15
[16:31] <oCean_> ciflos75: you have to login, right.
[16:31] <gordonjcp> ciflos75: you can set it up to log you in automatically
[16:31] <oCean_> ciflos75: you forgot your username/password combi?
[16:32] <cwillu> holyguyver, allow me to share my frustration with finding information on smart support for a drive called 'smart drive' :(
[16:32] <ciflos75> sorry but..my inglish is no god
[16:32] <Iraimbilanja> SEJeff, Whoa, gstreamer sucking so bad with dvds, that's unexpected :) Got it. thanks.
[16:32] <whitedox> In avidemux, I have put marker A and B at the beginning and end of the clip I want. Now how do I get rid of the rest? Or how do I put my selected clip in a new video file?
[16:32] <gordonjcp> n8tuser: -15 is implicit
[16:32] <ex-user_> hello
[16:32] <ciflos75> ocean i put only the passw
[16:32] <holyguyver> cwillu, :p LoL
[16:32] <ciflos75> without username
[16:32] <gordonjcp> !it | ciflos75
[16:32] <gordonjcp> ciflos75: is that any good to you?
[16:32] <The_Joe_> Who's the person to contact about ShipIt?
[16:32] <oCean_> ciflos75: there is an ubuntu channel in italian, but not a lot of users I think #ubuntu-it
[16:32] <ciflos75> vado in quello italiano
[16:33] <oCean_> ciflos75: still, you have to remember the username and password you specified during your installation
[16:33] <gordonjcp> ciflos75: if you've forgotten the password you can reset it, but it's not easy to explain
[16:33] <whitedox> In avidemux, I have put marker A and B at the beginning and end of the clip I want. Now how do I get rid of the rest? Or how do I put my selected clip in a new video file?
[16:33] <The_Joe_> An answer would be good, excuse me for being impatient but I'm a bit frustrated about this
[16:34] <holyguyver> cwillu, though mine is called Simple Drive
[16:34] <cwillu> holyguyver, my bad.  It's their marketing (they use the phrase "a smart solution" a whole lot)
[16:34] <oCean_> gordonjcp: ciflos75, true, I guess a re-install is easier
[16:34] <melt01> The_Joe_: I'm sure there's contact info on the website
[16:35] <holyguyver> cwillu,  A smart salution without smart support? :p
[16:35] <The_Joe_> melt01, If there is, it's pretty well hidden
[16:35] <jarco> hello big problenm here: All my sound is suddely played as static. (like snow on the tv). Whatcould cause this?
[16:35] <melt01> The_Joe_: i'll check, one sec (im a little lagged)
[16:35] <cwillu> holyguyver, the drive will certainly support it (don't know of any manufacturers that don't these days), but getting at it over a usb connection is another matter entirely
[16:36] <cwillu> holyguyver, mostly hoping to find out if its likely to be sata or pata
[16:36] <The_Joe_> melt01, Thanks
[16:36] <O__o> hi how to add icon picture to the shortcut in the menu??
[16:36] <amh> hi everyone. can anyone tell me if there is an remote application that will allow me to connect to my ubuntu machine that's on wireless?  i dont know of one as wireless only seems to connect AFTER i log in.
[16:36] <O__o> how come i cant use png as shortcut icon anymore?
[16:36] <gordonjcp> oCean_: no, it's quicker to reset the password
[16:36] <holyguyver> cwillu, well as I said I will not attach it to my motherboard.
[16:36] <gordonjcp> oCean_: I just don't fancy trying to explain it in Italian
[16:36] <cwillu> holyguyver, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it :p
[16:37] <oCean_> gordonjcp: that's what I meant... for him it would be easier ..
[16:37] <M4rotku> L|nuxPS2, how long does it normally take to create the disk image?
[16:37] <holyguyver> cwillu, no we will not cross that brige, I am telling you you will only get that attached to my motherboard when you walk over my cold dead body.
[16:37] <jarco> hello big problenm here: All my sound is suddely played as static. (like snow on the tv). What could cause this?
[16:38] <anr78> Anyone know if easytag can be used to put filenames in the title field of id3?
[16:38] <melt01> The_Joe_: any particular reason? you may need a more general contact
[16:38] <shiMMer> how can i open file.pak on ubuntu 8.10??
[16:38] <The_Joe_> melt01, I'd like to find out why they keep denying my requests - whether it's stock or something else
[16:39] <MikyMouse> Hello again
[16:39] <me2resh_> how can i mount iscsi target from ubuntu ?
[16:39] <horstle> hi
[16:39] <whitedox> In avidemux, I have put marker A and B at the beginning and end of the clip I want. Now how do I get rid of the rest? Or how do I put my selected clip in a new video file?.
[16:39] <cwillu> holyguyver, nope, that controller won't report smart info over usb :(
[16:40] <melt01> The_Joe_: did you see any contact info when you logged in? i donthave a usr name so im not sure if it has anything there
[16:40] <holyguyver> cwillu, then we will just have to deal with dumb info :p
[16:40] <The_Joe_> melt01, None at all
[16:40] <TakeABow> Hello again, where do I find Apaches folder?
[16:40] <cwillu> holyguyver, I'm afraid that all I can do is to suggest you let it run the bad block test as long as it takes.  Each time it runs into a badblock, the controller is probably trying to reread the same sector over and over for some time before it finally reports an error, which means that although you're making progress, it'll take far longer than it should otherwise
[16:40] <MikyMouse> I installed a Apache server to my Ubuntu, everything is working pretty good, however I wonder what should I do in order to access the computer using a human name like "webserver" thatn writing 192.168.1.x ??
[16:41] <paintedeyez> #mp3
[16:41] <cwillu> holyguyver, you're wiping it, right?
[16:41] <melt01> The_Joe_: the only thing i can think of then is to email the webmaster
[16:41] <Titan8990> TakeABow: config files: /etc/apache2     executable: /etc/init.d/apache2        default rootdir: /var/www
[16:41] <cwillu> holyguyver, are you running the badblock test via windows or via ubuntu?
[16:41] <jarco> hello big problenm here: All my sound is suddely played as static. (like snow on the tv). What could cause this?
[16:41] <holyguyver> cwillu, yes it has been about 10 hours so far, I wish to tell you something that says
[16:41] <The_Joe_> melt01, Hmm I guess so...
[16:41] <TakeABow> Thank you!
[16:41] <melt01> The_Joe_: i really have no idea...i figured they would have a visible contact address for shipit
[16:42] <koba> Hi everyone. I've been searching the web but I couldn't find an answer. Is there a way to implement real time dynamic range compression to the audio output via pulseaudio, alsa or some other app?
[16:42] <holyguyver> cwillu, I do not own any Windows machines I have not used Windows since Win98.
[16:42] <cwillu> koba, -> #pulseaudio is probably a better bet
[16:42] <Titan8990> TakeABow: np, in general you can always expect to find config files in /etc/PROGRAMNAME
[16:42] <oCean_> MikyMouse: has your system a name already?
[16:42] <cwillu> holyguyver, I mention that because I thought I saw it say ntfs
[16:42] <oCean_> MikyMouse: the machine apache is running on, I mean
[16:42] <MikyMouse> oCean_, yes it does, the name is "LinuxServer"
[16:42] <cwillu> holyguyver, yes, it's reporting the fstype as ntfs
[16:43] <oCean_> MikyMouse: if you "ping LinuxServer" .. does that work?
[16:43] <holyguyver> cwillu, it does say ntfs, though that is simply the filesystem the manufactor put on it, though I am wiping it & reformatting it to ext3.
[16:43] <cwillu> holyguyver, what was the command you're running?
[16:43] <koba> cwillu, I've tried the pulseaudio channel but I didn't get an answer. I don't mind ditching PA if there is another way to do it
[16:43] <MikyMouse> oCean_, ping: unknown host LinuxServer
[16:43] <holyguyver> cwillu, mkfs.ext3 -c /dev/sdg1
[16:43] <oCean_> MikyMouse: ok, first of all you need to make an entry in your /etc/hosts file
[16:44] <dreamy> crdlb: hi
[16:44] <MikyMouse> oCean_, I have never done that, I beg your batience, can you help me on that?
[16:44] <cwillu> koba, http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/Modules might give some information
[16:44] <TakeABow> Back again, I can't find the file in Apache that says "It works!"?
[16:44] <cwillu> holyguyver, I think you're just going to have to wait :/
[16:44] <oCean_> MikyMouse: add a line like this like this: "<IP_ADDRESS>  LinuxServer", where the 33 should be your real ip part...
[16:44] <dreamy> crdlb: where are you from ?
[16:44] <Titan8990> TakeABow: that file is: /var/www/default.html
[16:45] <holyguyver> cwillu, I never said anything against the wait, but as said I wish to tell you what it says
[16:45] <cwillu> holyguyver, go ahead
[16:45] <MikyMouse> oCean_, ok, I am trying
[16:45] <oCean_> MikyMouse: sure, use "sudo gedit /etc/hosts" to open the file
[16:45] <cwillu> holyguyver, it might be possible to abuse lvm to put a 'raid' across the single drive, so that any single bad sector doesn't cause a complete break, but if you have any bad sectors that line up with where a raid would be putting each copy of a given sector, than it doesn't buy you anything at all
[16:45] <remo999> ciao a tutti
[16:46] <oCean_> !it | remo999
[16:46] <holyguyver> cwillu, checking for bad blocks (read0only test): 5943888/122095999
[16:46] <MikyMouse> oCean_, ok, done, so I guess I have to restart my networking right?
[16:46] <cwillu> holyguyver, so, you're making progress :p
[16:46] <oCean_> MikyMouse: nope, ping should work now
[16:46] <remo999> grazie ciao
[16:46] <cwillu> holyguyver, only two more weeks!
[16:46] <MikyMouse> oCean_, no it is not
[16:47] <holyguyver> cwillu, are you joking about that timeframe?
[16:47] <oCean_> MikyMouse. Ok. Can you ping 192.168.1.x address you said you use?
[16:47] <cwillu> holyguyver, you said 10 hours?
[16:47] <holyguyver> Yes, it has been 10 or more hours since I started this command.
[16:47] <MikyMouse> oCean_, yes I can, I installed a Apache server to my Ubuntu, everything is working pretty good, however I wonder what should I do in order to access the computer using a human name like "webserver" thatn writing 192.168.1.x ??
[16:48] <oCean_> MikyMouse: i know
[16:48] <MikyMouse> oCean_, sorry, something qrong with the copy/paste
[16:48] <holyguyver> cwillu, Yes, it has been 10 or more hours since I started this command.
[16:48] <MikyMouse> oCean_, cmrabet@CM-Laptop:~$ ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[16:48] <MikyMouse> PING <IP_ADDRESS> (<IP_ADDRESS>) 56(84) bytes of data.
[16:48] <oCean_> MikyMouse: ok that works?
[16:48] <cwillu> holyguyver, at that rate (i.e., presuming the distribution of bad sectors is fairly consistent), I'd expect it to take 205.4 hours in total
[16:48] <cwillu> holyguyver, about 8.5 days
[16:48] <MikyMouse> oCean_, Iyes, when pinging to the numbered IP it works
[16:48] <cwillu> holyguyver, presuming the drive doesn't completely die before that
[16:49] <holyguyver> cwillu, I hope you are wrong.
[16:49] <oCean_> MikyMouse: ok then you need to put *that* <IP_ADDRESS> address in /etc/hosts
[16:49] <cwillu> holyguyver, maybe alot less, maybe alot more
[16:49] <MikyMouse> oCean_, http://pastebin.com/m6a153571 that's my hosts file
[16:49] <oCean_> MikyMouse: ok, moment
[16:49] <cwillu> holyguyver, you're less than 5 percent through the drive
[16:49] <cwillu> I'm just doing the straightforward extrapolation
[16:49] <holyguyver> cwillu, I have had the drive plugged in all week, & I have been moving files on & off of it perfectly fine without insadent.
[16:49] <oCean_> MikyMouse: ok. First of all, you have a double entry in the /etc/hosts for LinuxServer.
[16:50] <oCean_> MikyMouse: oh, 1 moment
[16:50] <cwillu> holyguyver, I can't account for what the controller is doing, I'm just saying, based on the progress so far, what I'd expect
[16:50] <cwillu> holyguyver, on the other hand, I told you a while ago that I wouldn't have bothered with it anyway :p
[16:50] <TakeABow> I want to copy something into the var\www folder but it gives me a permission error?
[16:50] <cwillu> holyguyver, you own the 1tb drive right?
[16:51] <cwillu> (i.e., they don't want it back?)
[16:51] <TakeABow> Is there a way around this?
[16:51] <holyguyver> cwillu, though as said I have no other option not unless you wish to buy me a harddrive.
[16:51] <Titan8990> TakeABow: you have to put yourself in the www-data group
[16:51] <TakeABow> Right
[16:51] <Titan8990> TakeABow: sudo adduser YOURNAME www-data
[16:51] <TakeABow> And how do I do that?
[16:51] <oCean_> MikyMouse: before you were not able to ping "linuxserver" ? Because before it was on your <IP_ADDRESS>
[16:51] <holyguyver> cwillu, with the 1tb only 1gb is free.
[16:51] <O__o> anyone notice that the customized icon in menu dont work?
[16:52] <TakeABow> So like admin?
[16:52] <tr3nd> Hi, I have wiped my harddrive with Gpart and I put my Windows XP CD in the computer and it says "GRUB loading, please wait... Error 22" -- Anyone know what the problem is?
[16:52] <oCean_> MikyMouse: let's take one step back :) Edit /etc/hosts and put an "#" before your line starting with 10.10 ...
[16:52] <MikyMouse> oCean_, so shall I delete that line? mas.msft is our domain here
[16:52] <Titan8990> TakeABow: sudo is admin, www-data i just like the webserver group
[16:52] <Titan8990> !rootsudo
[16:52] <dreamy> !help
[16:53] <holyguyver> sudo apt-get remove ubottu
[16:53] <cwillu> holyguyver, check pm's
[16:53] <oCean_> MikyMouse: well, that one should work. So disable your 10.10.xxx first by inserting # before that line
[16:53] <MikyMouse> oCean_, I have done it, but still the same result, Don't you thinkg that I have to restart the netwroking in my server?
[16:53] <oCean_> MikyMouse: no, that's not necessary
[16:53] <TakeABow> The error it gives me is: "The folder 'trunk' cannot be copied because you do not have the permissions to create it in the destination.
[16:53] <oCean_> MikyMouse: type "ping <IP_ADDRESS>"
[16:53] <tr3nd> Hi, I have wiped my harddrive with Gpart and I put my Windows XP CD in the computer and it says "GRUB loading, please wait... Error 22" -- Anyone know what the problem is?
[16:54] <dreamy> kmail gives alot  of errors with my kubuntu.. and i think konqueror doesnt works well too
[16:54] <Titan8990> TakeABow: after you added yourself to the group?
[16:54] <dreamy> anyone?
[16:54] <TakeABow> What do I put as YOURNAME?
[16:54] <MikyMouse> oCean_, from the server?
[16:54] <oCean_> MikyMouse: yes
[16:54] <Titan8990> TakeABow: your user name on the machine
[16:54] <TakeABow> Its a server I bought from OVH.
[16:54] <TakeABow> How do I find that out?
[16:54] <Titan8990> TakeABow: the one you log on with
[16:54] <Titan8990> TakeABow: type: whoami
[16:54] <TakeABow> It says admin
[16:55] <MikyMouse> oCean_, pinigint to <IP_ADDRESS> I get pong
[16:55] <oCean_> MikyMouse: are you talking about more than 1 machine?
[16:55] <cwillu> holyguyver, _if_ the bad sectors are coming from a head crash, then the bad sectors might be really localized, in which case, once you're through that patch of sectors, the rest _might_ be usable
[16:55] <Titan8990> TakeABow: so: sudo adduser admin www-data
[16:55] <MikyMouse> oCean_, yes, I am now in a desktop machine controling the server throught shh
[16:55] <TakeABow> I did. It still doesn't work
[16:55] <cwillu> holyguyver, but beyond that, I can't think of anything that could be helpful
[16:55] <Titan8990> TakeABow: is your server running a GUI?
[16:55] <oCean_> MikyMouse: ah.. that explains
[16:55] <tr3nd> Hi, I have wiped my harddrive with Gpart and I put my Windows XP CD in the computer and it says "GRUB loading, please wait... Error 22" -- Anyone know what the problem is?
[16:55] <TakeABow> Yes NX Machine
[16:55] <MikyMouse> oCean_, so from the desktop machin when I try to do this: ping LinuxServer it doesn't work
[16:56] <oCean_> MikyMouse: we're editing files on the wrong side of it ..
[16:56] <MikyMouse> oCean_, and when doing ping LinuxServer from the server it works
[16:56] <oCean_> MikyMouse: that's the expected behaviour :)
[16:56] <Titan8990> TakeABow: the GUI should be removed..... You can use sudo cp: sudo cp -a /path/to/trunk /var/www/
[16:56] <tr3nd> Hi, I have wiped my harddrive with Gpart and I put my Windows XP CD in the computer and it says "GRUB loading, please wait... Error 22" -- Anyone know what the problem is?
[16:56] <MikyMouse> oCean_, but..do you mean that we have to change "something" in each machine into my network?
[16:56] <TakeABow> You what?
[16:57] <Titan8990> TakeABow: well, it should be removed if you plan for it to be in production
[16:57] <cwillu> tr3nd, it's not booting off the cd.  That'd be a bios option you'd have to check
[16:57] <oCean_> MikyMouse: On the client side (is it windows, is it linux?) you have to specify the ip-address for LinuxServer, so that the client knows where to go
[16:57] <tr3nd> cwillu, how do I do that?
[16:57] <TakeABow> What to be in production?
[16:57] <chester_m>  Hi everyone
[16:57] <MikyMouse> oCean_, we have both, Linux and XP machines here
[16:57] <Titan8990> TakeABow: the server
[16:57] <oCean_> MikyMouse: after that, we have to let apache know on which server it is running
[16:57] <oCean_> MikyMouse: ok. Your client is... ?
[16:57] <cwillu> tr3nd, no idea, it depends totally on your bios (the screen that comes up at first when you turn on the computer)
[16:57] <TakeABow> I dont understand you
[16:58] <MikyMouse> oCean_, mine is Linux (Ubuntu)
[16:58] <|neon|> in order to get dual monitors working correctly configured as separate X screens i need to disbale compiz any ideas on a work around this? thx
[16:58] <Titan8990> TakeABow: there are different envirnments a server can be in, eg - production, development, testing
[16:58] <tr3nd> cwillu, im in BIOS now
[16:58] <Technoviking> my gnome disctionary is using UK spellings instead of US spelling, where do I switch it.
[16:58] <TakeABow> Right
[16:58] <Titan8990> TakeABow: if you plan to host you server on the internet for the world to see, that would be considered a production envirnment
[16:58] <oCean_> MikyMouse: great :) You need to edit *that* /etc/hosts file, adding the 10.xxx address
[16:58] <tr3nd> cwillu, what should i do?
[16:58] <bbeebboopp> tr3nd, now make sure CD will boot before hard-drive
[16:58] <TakeABow> So what do I type in?
[16:58] <cwillu> !bios
[16:59] <DarkKnight> to run Java EE applications what packages do i need to install?? can anyone say that
[16:59] <Titan8990> TakeABow: what directory is your trunk folder in?
[16:59] <tr3nd> bbeebboopp, i did
[16:59] <bbeebboopp> well, it should work then
[16:59] <TakeABow> On the desktop
[16:59] <TakeABow> In untitled folder
[16:59] <tr3nd> it says GRUB isnt loading, error 22 but i have wiped the harddrive, bbeebboopp
[16:59] <MikyMouse> oCean_, yeah..but is is not what I wanted...I can't do this in every machine, this is oging tobe a local network web tool, and anyone can access it...I saw this in another company, they where just puting the name of the machine in the browser
[16:59] <TakeABow> Wait
[16:59] <TakeABow> I mean its just on the desktop
[16:59] <bbeebboopp> that's what we said before, because it's booting on the HD before the CD
[16:59] <Titan8990> TakeABow: sudo cp -a /home/admin/Desktop/trunk /var/www/
[17:00] <bbeebboopp> tr3nd, are you sure your CD is bootable?
[17:00] <cwillu> tr3nd, then you didn't set it to boot off the cd, or the windows cd you have is a pirated copy that was poorly done, and so doesn't include the details needed to make a bootable cd
[17:00] <oCean_> MikyMouse: is your company using DNS? If it's a network of any size, it probably is
[17:00] <cwillu> tr3nd, and no, we will _not_ help you find a working pirated cd
[17:00] <MikyMouse> oCean_, yes it is
[17:00] <cwillu> (any real windows xp cd will be bootable)
[17:00] <oCean_> MikyMouse: ok, so aks the DNS / network guys to add 10.100.xxx address in the DNS
[17:01] <bbeebboopp> (may be damadged, or yeah, as you said, a fake CD)
[17:01] <DarkKnight> to run Java EE applications what packages do i need to install?? can anyone say that
[17:01] <TakeABow> Right
[17:01] <tr3nd> cwillu, my XP s real
[17:01] <TakeABow> Why can't I just copy and paste?
[17:01] <MikyMouse> oCean_, ah ok..
[17:01] <TakeABow> Why is it giving me all these errors?
, JRE
[17:01] <Titan8990> TakeABow: what kind of errors?
[17:01] <TakeABow> How do I delete a file from the www folder?
[17:01] <oCean_> MikyMouse: When that's done, you need to config apache, to let it know what the server is, it's running on
[17:01] <MikyMouse> oCean_, can be done that in the router DNS parameters?
[17:01] <TakeABow> The file is called index.html
[17:01] <TakeABow> When I try to delete it, it says permission denies
[17:01] <Steal`n`Kill> sudo rm index.html
[17:01] <Titan8990> TakeABow: sudo rm /var/www/index.html
[17:02] <cwillu> tr3nd, then the problem is in your bios, you need to go through the settings and figure it out.  my bios isn't going to be the same as yours, so I can't really walk you through it
[17:02] <DarkKnight> Steal 'n' Kill; some suggested glassfish...which packages under glassfish should i install
[17:02] <oCean_> MikyMouse: maybe, there are many, many DNS solutions
[17:02] <MikyMouse> oCean_, ok, thanks
[17:02] <|neon|> in order to get dual monitors working correctly configured as separate X screens i need to disbale compiz any ideas on a work around this? thx
[17:02] <oCean_> MikyMouse: when that's done, go to /etc/apache2/apache2.conf and edit that file
[17:02] <cwillu> |neon|, what type of card?
[17:02] <tr3nd> cwillu, thanks. it works now
[17:03] <MikyMouse> oCean_, ok, got you, I really appreciate it, thanks!
[17:03] <|neon|> cwillu: nvidia 9600 go
[17:03] <TakeABow> Right
[17:03] <oCean_> MikyMouse: set the "ServerName" directive (there's a line for that) to "LinuxServer" and restart apache /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[17:03] <cwillu> |neon|, why do you need seperate screens?
[17:03] <TakeABow> How do I find out if PHP is installed?
[17:03] <|neon|> i am running the beta 1.80 drivers after trying 1.73 and 1.77
[17:03] <oCean_> MikyMouse: then it should work. Happy browsing :-)
[17:03] <cwillu> |neon|, nvidia works fine with mergedfb with compiz
[17:03] <TakeABow> If it's not, how do I install it?
[17:03] <MikyMouse> oCean_, ok I hope so XD
[17:04] <Titan8990> TakeABow: ......
[17:04] <TakeABow> ?
[17:04] <Titan8990> !lamp | TakeABow
[17:04] <|neon|> cwillu: the screen resolutions are different one is 1440x900 the other is 1920x1200 if i use twin view the smaller screen looks funky
[17:05] <TakeABow> I typed in what that told me
[17:05] <TakeABow> And it doesn't seem to have installed PHP
[17:05] <TakeABow> I click on a .php file and it opens it up in a text form
[17:05] <TakeABow> How can I see the page how it should be?
[17:05] <cwillu> |neon|, you can set the resolutions independently via nvidia-settings
[17:06] <|neon|> really? for twin view?
[17:06] <cwillu> yep
[17:06] <Titan8990> TakeABow: open it in a web browser
[17:06] <Titan8990> TakeABow: as in: localhost/path/to/file.php
[17:06] <|neon|> cwillu: ok let me try that, i tought i couldn't
[17:06] <cwillu> |neon|, if one of the monitors is a crt, I'd strongly recommend setting the vertical resolutions the same (horizontal doesn't really matter in this case)
[17:06] <TakeABow> Now when I load it in a browser
[17:06] <TakeABow> It trys to save the file
[17:06] <TakeABow> Does that mean PHP is not installed?
[17:06] <Den__> приветы
[17:07] <Titan8990> TakeABow: did you enable to the module in apache?
[17:07] <Den__> speek russian?
[17:07] <cwillu> !ru | Den__
[17:07] <TakeABow> What do you mean?
[17:07] <Den__> danke
[17:07] <gmathews> Damn this channel is hooked up :P
[17:07] <TakeABow> Probably not, I just installed that LAMP thing
[17:07] <TakeABow> Thats basically all I have done
[17:08] <TakeABow> On a different PC
[17:08] <TakeABow> Hang on
[17:08] <TakeABow> This is the ip
[17:08] <TakeABow> http://<IP_ADDRESS>/
[17:08] <TakeABow> I want it to display the index page
[17:08] <[tggrBot]> o7
[17:08] <Titan8990> TakeABow: did you read the article the we repeatly bring up?
[17:09] <TakeABow> Yes
[17:09] <TakeABow> I dont understand why
[17:09] <TakeABow> I cant copy and paste normally into folders...?
[17:09] <Titan8990> TakeABow: and you did: sudo a2enmod php5
[17:10] <TakeABow> It says that module is already enabled
[17:10] <Titan8990> TakeABow: restart apache
[17:10] <TakeABow> How do I do that?
[17:11] <L|nuxPS2> "/etc/init.d/apache2 restart"
[17:11] <doglino> what player plays .ape files??
[17:12] <TakeABow> It says "httpd (pid 29878?) not running"
[17:12] <la> olaa
[17:12] <bbeebboopp> I know vlc and audacity do doglino
[17:13] <Titan8990> TakeABow: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start
[17:13] <[tggrBot]> im on ubuntu!!!!
[17:13] <[tggrBot]> XHCAT!!!!
[17:13] <[tggrBot]> w000t
[17:13] <doglino> you know if exists a plugin to rhythmbox?
[17:13] <FloodBot2> [tggrBot]: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:13] <Titan8990> TakeABow: also, your php file, doesn't even appear to have a .php extension
[17:13] <gordonjcp> PHP must die
[17:14]  * cwillu joins gordonjcp's quest
[17:14] <doglino> gordonjcp ahuauhahuaa
[17:14] <TakeABow> "httpd (pid 29878) already running"
[17:14] <TakeABow> The thing on that ip address
[17:14] <TakeABow> Is a folder
[17:14] <TakeABow> But I can't copy or paste or do shit
[17:14] <TakeABow> Because it gives me permision errors
[17:14] <Titan8990> TakeABow: gksu nautilus
[17:15] <Titan8990> TakeABow: I showed you how to do it....
[17:15] <TakeABow> ?
[17:15] <TakeABow> It didn't work
[17:15] <Titan8990> TakeABow: what didn't work?
[17:15] <TakeABow> I typed everything you told me
[17:15] <TakeABow> And its not working
[17:15] <homecable> anyone have a fast upload speed ?
[17:15] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter > TakeABow
[17:15] <bbeebboopp> I don't know doglino
[17:15] <Jack_Sparrow> !doesntwork
[17:16] <TakeABow> Right
[17:16] <TakeABow> I can't open .php files. I have installed LAMP. What do I have to do?
[17:17] <Titan8990> TakeABow: you should place you php file in your root dir for now with a .php extension
[17:17] <Jack_Sparrow> TakeABow there is the #apache channel or the server channel.. this is mostly Desktop
[17:17] <cwillu> TakeABow, you need to do some reading before you install server software and php scripts that you have no understanding of
[17:17] <cwillu> TakeABow, ... in all honesty
[17:17] <elops> its diffocult to update iptables rules in ubuntu.. why?
[17:17] <helder> Can someone help me with a particioning problem? Or there are a better channel?
[17:17] <cwillu> TakeABow, you're just begging to have a hacked server :(
[17:17] <la> kkk?
[17:17] <Jack_Sparrow> helder whats the question
[17:17] <bbeebboopp> go ahead helder
[17:18] <doglino> bbeebboopp do you use audacity?
[17:18] <TakeABow> Surely it doesn't matter where I place it, i'm still not going to be able to open the .php file?
[17:18] <Jack_Sparrow> la Who are you talking to..?
[17:18] <bbeebboopp> yes doglino
[17:18] <TakeABow> Whats the command for moving a file again
[17:18] <gordonjcp> mv
[17:18] <Jack_Sparrow> TakeABow mv
[17:18] <la> yo soy d spain
[17:18] <oCean_> TakeABow: see /etc/apache2/mods-enabled directory
[17:18] <doglino> I'm use rhythmbox
[17:18] <Jack_Sparrow> !es > la
[17:18] <Speeder> my NTFS partitions on GParted are showing with a warning sign and I can not do anything with them
[17:18] <elops> is it corect thats its difficult to update iptables in ubuntu?
[17:19] <oCean_> TakeABow: there should be files called php5.conf and php5.load
[17:19] <Speeder> What I do jack_Sparrow, bbeebboopp?
[17:19] <lstarnes> elops: what do you mean by that?
[17:19] <doglino> now I'm installing amarok
[17:19] <ikonia> elops: no, depends on your abilitiy and understanding of iptables
[17:19] <oCean_> TakeABow: do you have those files?
[17:19] <TakeABow> Where will those files be oCean_?
[17:19] <la> kkk?
[17:19] <gmathews> KDE 4.2 is out -> http://download.kde.org/stable/4.2.0/KDE-Four-Live/KDE-Four-Live.i686-1.2.0.iso
[17:19] <elops> I mean to update the iptables rules
[17:19] <oCean_> TakeABow: /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
[17:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Speeder boot into windows and properly exit, if no working windows install then you will need to forece moun then and fsck  them
[17:19] <elops> it's not as easy as other distros?
[17:19] <bbeebboopp> it's because they are mounted Speeder you need to unmount then
[17:19] <amy__> hi
[17:19] <ikonia> elops: it's exactly the same
[17:20] <Titan8990> TakeABow: config files are always located somewhere in the /etc/ directory
[17:20] <lstarnes> elops: they work the same way in ubuntu as with every other distro
[17:20] <Jack_Sparrow> elops iptables are the same as in most debian based releases
[17:20] <Speeder> well
[17:20] <bbeebboopp> warning sign means you can't touch it because it's mounted Speeder
[17:20] <TakeABow> Yes, those files are there
[17:20] <Speeder> I did logged with windows CD and done a chkdsk
[17:20] <cjae> is it possible to traffic shape OoS from within an OS no external computer or gateway? eg. modem & desktop PC
[17:21] <Speeder> also how I check if they are really mounted?
[17:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Speeder you need to unmount a partition before you can work on it
[17:21] <Speeder> because the dismount option on gparted are grayed on them
[17:21] <bbeebboopp> type mount in a terminal Speeder and see if it's mounted
[17:21] <Speeder> no
[17:22] <Speeder> they are not mounted
[17:22] <Speeder> :/
[17:22] <bbeebboopp> ok so it's another problem then
[17:22] <Speeder> >.<
[17:22] <Speeder> chkdsk on windows claim that nothing is wrong
[17:22] <Speeder> :/
[17:22] <Speeder> also I do not figured how to do a fsck on them
[17:22] <elops> Jack_Sparrow: ok sir, and is there a way to circumvent the fact that root account being disabled by default?
[17:22] <TakeABow> So anyone know why I can't open .php files?
[17:22] <bbeebboopp> what do you want to do with these partitions anyway Speeder ?
[17:22] <oCean_> TakeABow: did you answer me?
[17:23] <elops> Jack_Sparrow: I dont want to use use sudo for everything
[17:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Speeder Hold down on usung enter every couple words, it makes it hard to follow you
[17:23] <oCean_> TakeABow: I can help check things
[17:23] <Jack_Sparrow> elops Bad idea.  dont setup root accunt
[17:23] <oCean_> TakeABow: but I need to know if php is listed in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
[17:23] <Jack_Sparrow> elops You can setup sudo  for a session, but dont run as root user
[17:24] <samuelg> hi
[17:24] <AngryElf> how do I set a static IP address?  I've got 8.10 installed an updated
[17:24] <Speeder> bbeebboopp I want to copy them to another disk
[17:24] <nickrud> elops, sudo -i is useful for getting a root terminal temporarily.
[17:24] <Speeder> I want to copy a entire disk to another bigger one
[17:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Morning nickrud
[17:24] <nickrud> Morning Jack_Sparrow
[17:24] <bbeebboopp> why don't you do this from windows then Speeder ?
[17:25] <nickrud> AngryElf, you'd define a network connection in /etc/network/interfaces
[17:25] <oCean_> TakeABow: so, did you check that directory?
[17:25] <AngryElf> nickrud: how about through network manager, it seems to be broken
[17:26] <samuelg> alguien que entienda español?
[17:26] <nickrud> AngryElf, ah, network manager. I set up static connections outside of network manager myself.
[17:26] <TakeABow> Sorry for the late reply
[17:26] <TakeABow> Those files are there
[17:26] <jpds> !es > samuelg
[17:26] <nickrud> AngryElf, pm?
[17:26] <Titan8990> TakeABow: he was asking about the contents of the file.....
[17:26] <oCean_> TakeABow: ok
[17:26] <TakeABow> Oh
[17:26] <Speeder> bbeeppoopp because I do not have windows installed
[17:27] <AngryElf> sure
[17:27] <TakeABow> What should be in the contents?
[17:27] <TheFunkbomb> I see the servers are fixed :)
[17:27] <oCean_> TakeABow: now see if the module files are actually there, and nothing is broken
[17:27] <TakeABow> What are the module files?
[17:27] <bbeebboopp> oh I have another idea Speeder maybe because you don't have the ntfs package installed...
[17:27] <oCean_> TakeABow: see if /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so is there
[17:27] <TheFunkbomb> Here is my question from last night.  Every time I try to switch windows, my computer freezes up
[17:27] <elops> ty
[17:28] <TakeABow> Yes, that file is there.
[17:28] <bbeebboopp> Speeder, in menu GParted -> "Show features" should show you if you can work with NTFS
[17:28] <oCean_> TakeABow: ok. Just to make sure, because we might have misunderstood each other: In /etc/apache2 there are 2 directories modules-available and modules-enabled
[17:29] <ldiamond> is it safe to send the output of dmesg to someone?
[17:29] <ball> ldiamond: relatively, yes.
[17:29] <TakeABow> Yes
[17:29] <oCean_> TakeABow: the files in mods-enabled are links to mods-available. So, the php.load and php.conf *need* to be in /etc/apache/mods-enabled
[17:29] <TakeABow> There are two directories
[17:29] <Speeder> yeah, it is that, gparted here do not do anything with ntfs
[17:29] <Speeder> what I call on apt-get to fix that?
[17:29] <Dulak> ldiamond dmesg doesn't give out any sensitive info
[17:29] <TakeABow> Yes they are in mods-enabled
[17:30] <jeniboy> kann ich auch deutsch reden?
[17:30] <bbeebboopp> Speeder, the best thing is to run synaptic: System -> Administration -> Synaptic package manager
[17:30] <TheFunkbomb> what is the command to remove a modprobe
[17:30] <oCean_> TakeABow: ok, if you do "grep -i include /etc/apache2/apache2.conf | grep mods"
[17:30] <jeniboy> hi
[17:30] <bbeebboopp> Speeder, then in "quick search" type ntfs
[17:30] <TakeABow> What, type that into the terminal?
[17:31] <oCean_> TakeABow: that should return a line to include the /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.load and *.conf files
[17:31] <jeniboy> everybody speak german?
[17:31] <bbeebboopp> Speeder, then mark both ntfsprogs and ntfsdoc for installation and off you go
[17:31] <TakeABow> "Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.load
[17:31] <TakeABow> Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.conf
[17:31] <Speeder> thank you bbeebboopp!
[17:31] <bastidrazor> !de
[17:31] <Speeder> and jack!
[17:31] <bbeebboopp> yw Speeder ;)
[17:31] <oCean_> TakeABow: that's ok. So everything is setup for apache to load php5. Now stop: /etc/init.d/apache2 stop
[17:31] <oCean_> then start, "/etc/init.d/apache2 start"
[17:32] <ldiamond> Does anyone here know how I can use a remote controller to control my PC? I have a logitech remote thats all setup, I installed LIRC, but is there some kind of application to help configure?
[17:32] <TakeABow> Then what?
[17:32] <oCean_> TakeABow: clear your browser's cache
[17:32] <miik> if i play fullscreen game, does the screensaver start?
[17:32] <oCean_> TakeABow: and browse to any .php file. It should work
[17:32] <nickrud> miik, depends on whether or not the game turns off the screensaver
[17:33] <miik> oh
[17:33] <radvenspiit> exit
[17:33] <TakeABow> It said
[17:33] <TakeABow> Permission denies when I tried to start it back up
[17:33] <Titan8990> TakeABow: you have to use sudo
[17:33] <oCean_> TakeABow: use "sudo" before the command
[17:34] <TakeABow> Okay
[17:34] <oCean_> TakeABow: clear cache?
[17:34] <markus_> hallo
[17:34] <TakeABow> Cleared the cache. It still trys to save the file
[17:36] <oCean_> TakeABow: arg! That must be in your browser? Apache is ok now, definitely
[17:36] <TakeABow> :S
[17:36] <Titan8990> TakeABow: and you are navigating you: http://yourIP/file.php    or something similar?
[17:36] <TakeABow> Im just going to the file
[17:36] <TakeABow> Then opening in firefox
[17:37] <Titan8990> firefox can't open a php file alone, it needs a web browser such as apache to interpret and host it
[17:37] <Titan8990> you have to navigate to it from the webserver
[17:37] <TakeABow> Im confused
[17:37] <TakeABow> Please explain?
[17:37]  * oCean_ is *getting* confused
[17:38] <TakeABow> Right
[17:38] <Pici> !enter
[17:38] <TakeABow> So how should I be opening this .php files?
[17:38] <Titan8990> TakeABow: you should navigate to it on your webserver
[17:38] <Titan8990> TakeABow: name it file.php and place it in /var/www
[17:38] <TakeABow> Okay
[17:38] <chi_> jo hi, i have an access point on my desktop running... how can i check the mac-adresses of cennected devices? without useing wireshark or something
[17:38] <Titan8990> TakeABow: then go to: localhost/file.php
[17:38] <chi_> ?
[17:38] <elops> Jack_Sparrow: it doesn't have a default location for the rules, you have to create the startup script yourself and script the rules
[17:39] <oCean_> Titan8990: it's not on his webserver??
[17:39] <LogicHoleFlaw> what's the easiest way to determine what version of ubuntu is installed at the commandline? something like uname?
[17:39] <cwillu> chi_, arp might do something, or the access point's configuration page might tell you
[17:39] <engemec> hi everybody
[17:39] <rainmanp7> Is there a way to turn on dma on a harddrive ? becasue bios says it's at udma 4 thank you
[17:40] <rainmanp7> hello
[17:40] <cwillu> LogicHoleFlaw, lsb-release -a
[17:40] <engemec> Everybody know Remastersys?
[17:40] <Titan8990> oCean_: he was apparently clicking on the .php in nautilus and then opening with firefox
[17:40] <chi_> cwillu, thanks i ll read up arp!  there is no configuration page since its an software AC-link
[17:40] <Speeder> how I instal ntfsprogs? synatic and apt-get are both saying that this do not exist...
[17:40] <Titan8990> oCean_: so it is, but he wasn't viewing it that way
[17:40] <cwillu> rainmanp7,  sudo hdparm -i /dev/sda
[17:40] <oCean_> Titan8990: :/
[17:40] <rainmanp7> checking give sec
[17:41] <cwillu> rainmanp7, to check, type man hdparm to read how to set it (be careful though, if it's not running in dma mode, there may be a reason for it)
[17:41] <oCean_> Titan8990: ok, I really need something stronger than coffee now
[17:41] <engemec> I have a doubt about remastersys. I would like to add some wallpapers with my recoverydvd.
[17:41] <bbeebboopp> LogicHoleFlaw, cat /etc/issue
[17:41] <|HSO|SadiQ> can anyone help me bind a mouse button in Teamspeak in Push To Talk...mouse key is not recodnised :(
[17:42] <stdin> elops: you can use ufw to configure iptables
[17:42] <Speeder> bbeebboopp how I install ntfsprogs?
[17:42] <TakeABow> How do you make MySQL users and databases?
[17:42] <stdin> elops: that's already setup to start at boot
[17:42] <chi_> cwillu, thanks  arp does the trick, very fine... =)
[17:42] <bbeebboopp> I already told you Speeder use synaptic...
[17:42] <rainmanp7> /dev/sda1: ATA       WDC WD400BB-00CF  02.0
[17:43] <Speeder> bbeebboopp it is not showing there
[17:43] <rainmanp7> yes i used sdparm and it jsut gives me a report thingy ;)
[17:43] <Titan8990> TakeABow: I recommend installing phpmyadmin
[17:43] <TheFunkbomb> I wish I could figure out why different windows keep freezing on me
[17:43] <Titan8990> TakeABow: it is a GUI web interface for managing mysql and mysql users
[17:43] <bbeebboopp> Speeder, in synaptic, quick search type "ntfs"
[17:43] <Titan8990> TakeABow: or you can type: mysql -u root -p
[17:44] <TakeABow> i'm not sure, i installed mysql 5 earlier and set it all up
[17:44] <Titan8990> TakeABow: you can view mysql commands on the mysql documentation page
[17:44] <TakeABow> but i've only ever used mysql with pHpMyAdmin before
[17:44] <engemec> TakeABow: do you have some problem with php, mysql, phpmyadmin, apache?
[17:44] <Speeder> bbeebboopp results are: libntfs-3g23, libparted1.7-1, ntfs-3g, parted all them already installed
[17:44] <Titan8990> TakeABow: sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin
[17:45] <Titan8990> TakeABow: then from webbrowser: localhost/phpmyadmin
[17:45] <Jack_Sparrow> elops In here if You dont mind
[17:45] <engemec> TakeABow a i have a good link.
[17:45] <bbeebboopp> what ubuntu version do you have Speeder? anyway, ntfs-3g is good ;)
[17:45] <Speeder> ntfs-3g how I use it?
[17:45] <rainmanp7> hello ?
[17:45] <Speeder> I want to copy entire partition and only gparted do it that I know of...
[17:45] <rainmanp7> ty cwillu
[17:45] <Speeder> how I check ubuntu version?
[17:45] <Jack_Sparrow> elops did the answer from stdin handle your question
[17:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Speeder lsb_release  -a
[17:46] <bbeebboopp> wait Speeder ... you want to copy the whole partition ? sector by sector ? or file by file ?
[17:46] <tavi> i have on a site a lot of pictures ...and i cannot see all ....only few...how i can see all?
[17:46] <elops> Jack_Sparrow: am looking at it now
[17:46] <Speeder> 8.04 Hardy
[17:46] <rainmanp7> Version = System->About
[17:46] <engemec> TakeABow: see it! http://joeabiraad.com/linuxunix/installing-lamp-on-ubuntu-710-linuxapachemysqlphp/100
[17:46] <bbeebboopp> you can upgrade to 8.10 intrepid Speeder ...
[17:47] <Speeder> hummm :(
[17:47] <Speeder> imascrewed then :/
[17:47] <bbeebboopp> anyways Speeder, do you want to copy the partition sector by sector, or file by file ??
[17:47] <ldiamond> !kernel
[17:47] <engemec> Speeder! I advise that you continue with 8.04
[17:47] <bbeebboopp> and no, you're not screwed Speeder
[17:47] <Speeder> whatever bbeebboopp, but the result must be a ntfs partition with the same files and same size
[17:48] <ldiamond> Is there an easy way (apt-get ?) to upgrade my kernell from -9 to -11
[17:48] <rainmanp7> engemec can't he do the 8.4 thing and then move to 8.10 ?
[17:48] <Speeder> I am screwed if I need to upgrade to 8.10
[17:48] <tavi> someone help me?
[17:48] <alex^> hello, im wondering if anyone could shed any light on my iowait 100% issue - http://pastebin.com/m1e75b255 --- while running SQL and doing inserts into a table, often, (once every 10k inserts) i notice the system spike in iowait to 100% for a 5-6 seconds, WITHOUT any bi or bo being used .... im running ubuntu 8.10 with 2.6.27-7 .... anyone have any suggestions on what could be causing this?
[17:48] <bbeebboopp> then there's a better way Speeder you can use ntfsclone (or something like that)... wait I'm looking for some info
[17:48] <lesshaste> can anyone tell me how to get the links to work at http://www.seftonparkschools.bristol.sch.uk/ ?
[17:48] <Titan8990> Speeder: you can use dd
[17:48] <engemec> rainmanp7: yes
[17:48] <Speeder> what is dd?
[17:48] <melt01> could someone assist me in uninstalling and reinstalling my sound card driver?
[17:48] <bbeebboopp> Speeder, use ntfsclone it's wonderful
[17:49] <bbeebboopp> don't use dd Speeder ;) ;)
[17:49] <Titan8990> Speeder: it copies disks, partitions, or files, bit for bit
[17:49] <Titan8990> Speeder: it is slow but reliable
[17:49] <bbeebboopp> ntfsclone is better suited for his task
[17:49] <jatt> hi I want to use my laptop for a presentation with an external projector which package should I install so I can redirect the video from my laptop to the projector?
[17:49] <engemec> Ubuntu 8.10 have some upgrades, but 8.04 is a LTS version
[17:49] <Speeder> erm
[17:49] <ibmuser> I have a problem with poor performance of my wireless adapter in ubuntu . Though it works seemlessly in windows ...
[17:49] <Gnea> Speeder: it's a utility that passes any kind of data from one point to another - not good for large installations
[17:49] <ibmuser> Any pointers guys ?
[17:49] <Speeder> when I tried to use ntfs clone it asked mt to type apt-get install ntfsprogs
[17:49] <bbeebboopp> Speeder, type ntfsclone in a terminal to see if it's installed
[17:49] <Speeder> but when I do that apt-get says that ntfsprogs do not exist
[17:50] <Gnea> Speeder: so type it
[17:50] <Titan8990> !info metasploit
[17:50] <Titan8990> !info metasploit-framework
[17:50] <Gnea> Speeder: are you sure you typed it correctly?
[17:50] <bbeebboopp> ntfsprogs DO exist Speeder !!!!
[17:50] <Titan8990> !metasploit
[17:50] <engemec> When you change to release version......, i don't advise, but you can chose.
[17:50] <Speeder> I typed it correctly
[17:50] <Speeder> already checked 5 times
[17:51] <Speeder> and checked with synaptic
[17:51] <chi_> Speeder,  then u gotta check your sources.list
[17:51] <Speeder> both apt-get and synaptic says that ntfsprogs do not exist
[17:51] <melt01> could someone assist me in uninstalling and reinstalling my sound card driver? it's an sblive and im not really sure how to go about it
[17:51] <stdin> !info ntfsprogs

[17:51] <engemec> Guys, i'm using remastersys. I would like to add some wallpapers, but i don't know how.
[17:51] <bbeebboopp> it has to exist, I used ntfsclone on hardy some while ago
[17:52] <Speeder> bbeebboopp:  done it, result: ntfs is not avaible, another package references it, to it may exist.
[17:52] <Speeder> so it

[17:53] <bbeebboopp> empty Speeder ???
[17:53] <tavi> well ...is a firefox issue
[17:53] <bastidrazor> Speeder; you typed it wrong if it is empty.
[17:53] <Speeder> yeah
[17:53] <Titan8990> Speeder: check again, probably speleed it wrong
[17:53] <tavi> that is open source
[17:53] <Speeder> checked

[17:55] <tavi> engemec: who me? send the adress?

[17:56] <Gnea> tavi: please ask in #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks
[17:56] <Titan8990> laprice: you don't point it at a local directory, use the dpkg command to install .deb that are on your local machine

[17:56] <melt01> Titan8990: earlier today, i began getting a long, nonstop constant beep noise in my headphones/speakers....if i adjust the volume level low enough the beep goes away...if i reset the volume to max it comes back... im not having this issue in windows so i assume the driver malfunctioned
[17:56] <n00balien> looking for help with VLC/mplayer/xine/totem when in Full screen mode randomly (at first i thought it was the AVi clip but it freezes in diffrent places) my video freezes for 5 secs, audio continues and video catchs up in sync can someone help
[17:56] <tavi> Gnea: on the launchpad on section firefox says ask on #ubuntu
[17:56] <engemec> tavi: you (tavi) have a site? Isn't it?
[17:56] <razor2006> Good Afternoon.  I'm having some issues with my sound card.  Can anyone please lend some advice as to how to fully uninstall ALSA so that I can reinstall it to resolve my issue?   What just happened?
[17:57] <Titan8990> Have you tried adjusting you sound configuration in System -> Preferences -> sound/volume control?
[17:57] <engemec> tavi: you can see with other web browser?
[17:58] <Titan8990> !audio | melt01
[17:58] <tavi> engemec: i do not have another web browser
[17:58] <chi_> bbeebboopp, he needs to do apt update after moving the sources.list... i guess
[17:58] <melt01> Titan8990: everything seems fine there
[17:58] <n00balien> looking for help with VLC/mplayer/xine/totem when in Full screen mode randomly (at first i thought it was the AVi clip but it freezes in diffrent places) my video freezes for 5 secs, audio continues and video catchs up in sync can someone help
[17:58] <razor2006> Titan8990: yeah, i'm having a strange issue
[17:58] <elops> stdin: still here?
[17:58] <Gnea> Speeder: any luck yet?
[17:58] <Titan8990> melt01: check that sound troubleshooting link
[17:58] <elops> stdin: I didnt didn't know about that
[17:58] <AmaroKeN> Oh noes, my harddrives bugged once again ><
[17:58] <elops> stdin: so i juts wrote my own stuff
[17:58] <engemec> hum..... try with other web browser first
[17:58] <razor2006> Titan8990: my audio output is a high pitched beep, not sure what may be causing it, It's quite strange.  I've gone through all troubleshooting steps I can possibly think of.
[17:59] <ldiamond> Can anyone tell me how I can get my kernel from -9 to -11? (Intrepid)
[17:59] <bbeebboopp> why is that chi_ ? I'm confused :|
[17:59] <engemec> Opera for example!
[17:59] <Gnea> ldiamond: enable proposed updates
[17:59] <razor2006> Titan8990: The only other thing at this point I can possibly think of is to remove and reinstall ALSA, however, I'm not sure how to go about it without causing detrimental damage.
[17:59] <chi_> bbeebboopp,  na because if his aptitude didnt have any sources list for some time, it might be horrobly out of date
[18:00] <melt01> Titan8990: right, right....i didnt found anything specific to my problem there earlier, so now im just trying to figure out how uninstall and reinstall the sound driver to see if that does anything
[18:00] <engemec> tavi: sometimes, when a i have a trouble with firefox, i prefer use Opera or Samonkey
[18:00] <stdin> elops: you can just add rules to it, look at "man ufw" for usage info
[18:00] <tavi> engemec: i do not have them
[18:00] <bbeebboopp> have you done your updates regularly Speeder ? when did you install Ubuntu?
[18:00] <ldiamond> Gnea, where do I enable that?
[18:00] <Speeder> I just did apt-get update
[18:00] <Titan8990> melt01: that was the 2nd step in that troubleshooting article that you didn't look at
[18:00] <n00balien> looking for help with VLC/mplayer/xine/totem when in Full screen mode randomly (at first i thought it was the AVi clip but it freezes in diffrent places) my video freezes for 5 secs, audio continues and video catchs up in sync can someone help
[18:00] <tavi> engemec: so how i resolve that?
[18:00] <Titan8990> melt01: sudo aptitude --purge reinstall linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils linux-image-`uname -r` linux-ubuntu-modules-`uname -r` libasound2
[18:00] <Speeder> I do not know when this thing got installed
[18:00] <Gnea> ldiamond: System->Administration->Software Sources
[18:00] <engemec> tavi: you can make downlod, www.opera.com

[18:46] <jwm> I have a question about managing user profiles
[18:46] <wolfey> rk no samba no desktop! ;) joking
[18:46] <crdlb> dreamy: ok, it's too bad it's a laptop, so you can't upgrade it
[18:46] <tom_eats_lives> xorg suddenly crashes here is  Xorg.failsafe.log http://pastebin.com/m2635b52f
[18:47] <rk_> wolfey, ubuntu-desktop isnt the meta-package for all the gnome stuff?
[18:47] <jwm> Is anyone adept at manging users and groups?
[18:47] <wolfey> rk_: i think it is:)
[18:47] <rk_> i mean, why is a dependecy... and why it want to unninstall it
[18:47] <nickrud> rk_, not just gnome, but all the stuff ubuntu figures should be in a useful desktop machine
[18:48] <filmore> solet: sounds like you're more sever problems than a bad install. :-/     if you haven't backed up your critical data recently, do so. (odds are it'll all be fine, but ALWAYS keep recent backups just in case)

[18:48] <rk_> nickrud,  so its a bug that it want to unninstall the package when i unninstall samba-common?
[18:48] <nickrud> rk_, don't worry about the package ubuntu-desktop being removed; it's just a list of packages. If you remove the list, you don't remove the packages themselves.
[18:48] <wolfey> how can i clean unfinished packages from apt-get?
[18:48] <Solet> filmore: it's a persistant SD boot from a live image, trying to get crap working before i install for real
[18:48] <Krissed> Does anyone know if intel 4965 AGN wifi card is supported native in kubuntu ?
[18:48] <Solet> i'll just remake the image
[18:48] <nickrud> rk_, I wouldn't think so
[18:48] <rk_> I know, but should i report that as a bug?
[18:49] <jwm> how can I make USB ports inaccessible to a given user?
[18:49] <killerboy> Rebootia, sorry, still getting same error
[18:49] <rk_> ok :)
[18:49] <pyro2927> has anyone had trouble with the arrow keys when using VMWare?
[18:49] <filmore> solet: ahhhh, ok. what does adding the `-l' flag to ls do? `ls -l /lib/libsepol.so.1'
[18:49] <wolfey> krissed new intel cards are supported only in newest release, need .27 kernel
[18:49] <wolfey> i had to use beta two months ago
[18:49] <rk_> and in the same line.... is there any metapackage for all the gnome stuff?
[18:49] <nickrud> rk_, just be aware, when you upgrade to the next release you'll probably want ubuntu-desktop installed to get the latest and greatest stuff ubuntu thinks should be in a desktop :)
[18:50] <Solet> filmore: sorry already booted down and jumping back into origional non persistant image
[18:50] <jwm> It's as if I'm writing in white on a white background
[18:50] <filmore> solet: ok :)
[18:50] <Krissed> wolfey i just installed kubuntu so its a .27 core.. and i can find the networks just not my own.. its quite odd..
[18:50] <rk_> :)
[18:50] <Magnusmagnus> (Wubi ubuntu installation) while in ubuntu, I accidentally deleted the windows' boot manager, and had to pop in the vista CD to repair it.. When it was done fixing, ubuntu was removed from the list, or was never put in it. Does anyone know how to recover ubuntu to the Windows' boot manager list? I installed ubuntu via the Wubi
[18:50] <wolfey> Krissed: hm :)
[18:50] <tom_eats_lives> can some one kick homecable he is trying to make me run "dangerous scripts"
