[09:31] <linuxpjc780> ardchoille & almoxarife - Yeah, so I can get rkhunter and chkrootkit in the Ubuntu Software Center?  Or are they Terminal commands?  I want to be able to track network activity on my computer - similar to Zone Alarm in Windows ...  I am running wireless on a router.  I have double-encryption - with WPA Personal and a MAC filter set up ...
[09:31] <Curly_Q> By the way, it is nice to see you again Ardchoille and Dr Willis.
[09:31] <ardchoille> it will be the newest version available from the repos and it will be automatically updated for bug fixes and security updates. Otherwise you have to do all that yourself
[09:31] <yellowbabe> ubnut is pretty up to date
[09:32] <almoxarife> linuxpjc780: firestarter will monitor the wifi if you tell it to, and will indicate what is connected to what
[09:32] <ardchoille> linuxpjc780: rkhunter and chkrootkit don't track anything, they are rootkit scanners that you have to run.
[09:32] <morph> yea
[09:32] <morph> that didnt work
[09:32] <ardchoille> morph:  it will be the newest version available from the repos and it will be automatically updated for bug fixes and security updates. Otherwise you have to do all that yourself
[09:32] <morph> can u just tell me how to install that folder?
[09:32] <linuxpjc780> I don't understand "repos" quite yet.  So I go to the Ubuntu Repositories website, search for rkhunter and chkrootkit on there - and then download it from there?
[09:33] <morph> this is version 2 something
[09:33] <morph> the newest is 3
[09:33] <almoxarife> linuxpjc780: use synaptic
[09:33] <ardchoille> linuxpjc780: sudo apt-get install rkhunter chkrootkit
[09:33] <ardchoille> linuxpjc780: or you can search in synaptic
[09:34] <Curly_Q> Is Linux affected by that stupid virus with the Red Oblong box in the center of the screen as Windows?
[09:34] <ardchoille> Curly_Q: there aren't any active Linux viruses atm
[09:34] <Curly_Q> Glad to hear that Ardchoille.
[09:34] <ardchoille> Curly_Q: just be careful of what you download and don't open any strange email attachments
[09:35] <morph> ardchoille, im trying to install an addon and i get this msg
[09:35] <sabat> does ubuntu 9.10 install ati catalyst drivers by default? and if so what version, I expected to see it in hardware drivers, but its not there, do I need to install them manually?
[09:35] <Curly_Q> I agree.  Any executable is not open.
[09:35] <ironbee> anyone knows any application for managing a shop
[09:35] <morph> it is not compatible with Thunderbird <IP_ADDRESS> (Enigmail 1.0.1 will only work with Thunderbird versions 3.0pre to 3.0.*)
[09:35] <ironbee> i have a book shop and im switching to ubuntu there
[09:36] <Curly_Q> Ardchoille, do I need to be cautious about apt-gets?
[09:36] <ardchoille> Curly_Q: read this to learn why Linux is safer: http://ardchoille42.blogspot.com/2009/02/linux-and-viruses.html
[09:36] <ardchoille> Curly_Q: not really, as long as you trsut any repos you add
[09:36] <srinivasa> hi please suggest on camera detection software.
[09:37] <almoxarife> linuxpjc780: rkhunter works in background checking every x startups I think, btw, as one who uses windows and ubuntu, I see windows infected a lot, never saw my ubuntu side infected, that's NEVER, still, if there is peace of mind I suggest rkhunter
[09:37] <ardchoille> morph: both thunderbird and enigmail are in the repos, I can't help much with stuff from outside the repos
[09:37] <sabat> how can I tell what video card is in my system, I know it's ati
[09:37] <linuxpjc780> ardchoille & almoxarife - OK, I'm installing the rkhunter and chkrootkit right now.  Where do I get firestarter - from the repositority website?
[09:37] <nibbler> sabat: sudo lspci
[09:37] <ardchoille> sabat: lspci | grep -i VGA
[09:37] <Curly_Q> Good article Ardchoille. Social Engineering and Risky Microsoft Engineering.
[09:37] <ardchoille> linuxpjc780: yes
[09:37] <almoxarife> linuxpjc780: from synaptic
[09:38] <almoxarife> linuxpjc780: installing how?
[09:39] <linuxpjc780> archoille & almoxarife - Installing via Terminal.  For firestarter, let me guess: sudo apt-get firestarter?
[09:39] <sabat> it's a radeon xpress 200m, nothing great I know
[09:39] <ardchoille> linuxpjc780: you're installing these from the command line or from synatpic right? you're not downloading packages from archive.ubuntu.com?
[09:39] <ardchoille> linuxpjc780: yes
[09:39] <Curly_Q> Ardchoille, is that your server that I read that article? Looks pretty good.
[09:39] <linuxpjc780> ardchoille - when you say "synaptic", are talking about Terminal?
[09:39] <a> anyone?
[09:39] <ardchoille> Curly_Q: no, it's my blog at blogspot
[09:40] <Curly_Q> I see. Thanks for that article.
[09:40] <ardchoille> linuxpjc780: no, synaptic is a gui for installing packages: System Administration > Synaptic
[09:40] <sabat> what is the proper method to update to the newest or more stable drivers? the current ones are not working properly, so I was going to try that first.
[09:40] <morph> ardchoille, im trying to read an encrypted email from launchpad
[09:40] <morph> i couldnt read it in gmail
[09:40] <sabat> I already ran the general ubuntu updates.
[09:40] <morph> which is why im trying to install this crpa
[09:42] <darolu> sabat: what kind of video card do you have?
[09:42] <darolu> sabat: what drivers are you trying to update? (I asumed video card sry)
[09:42] <Curly_Q> I noticed that when installing Ubuntu, it showed that BSD was being installed and Debian. What is that all about?
[09:43] <sabat> It's a ati radeon 200m
[09:43] <Haffe> Wouldn't that be packages from BSD and Debian?
[09:43] <sabat> it's built into my laptop
[09:43] <Curly_Q> Possibly.
[09:43] <darolu> Curly_Q: you can expect to find the name "Debian" a lot, Ubuntu is based on Debian; about BSD.. you probably saw a BSD licensed software
[09:43] <ardchoille> Curly_Q: there are some packages based on BSD and debian code
[09:43] <Curly_Q> I see. Thanks.
[09:44] <sabat> I can run 3d games in windows fine, I don't run anything hardcore. but like, even quake won't do opengl properly, so I assumed maybe a video driver update would help
[09:44] <ardchoille> !info bsdutils
[09:44] <linuxpjc780> ardchoille & almoxarife - OK, right.  Synaptic is definitely easier.  But if I ran the command in Terminal, and once it finishes installing - where do I access rkhunter and chkrootkit now?  In what directory were the applications placed?
[09:44] <sabat> how can I tell what version of video driver I am using? and any chance someone knows what the latest ati is?
[09:44] <darolu> sabat: are you sure that's the video card model? I can't find it
[09:45] <ardchoille> linuxpjc780: those two are command line apps, yuou'll need to run them in a terminal. and I recommend reading their man pages too
[09:45] <darolu> sabat: open a terminal and type: lspci | grep VGA
[09:45] <ardchoille> [01:37] <ardchoille> sabat: lspci | grep -i VGA
[09:45] <Curly_Q> What is the best IRC Client besides Mirc with Linux these days? I have used BitchX.
[09:46] <ardchoille> Curly_Q: many folks use xchat, some use irssi (text-based)
[09:46] <ThinkSteve> Curly_Q: Konversation, Xchat, irssi ...
[09:46] <sabat> 01:05.0 VGA compatable controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS482 [Radeon Xpress 200M]
[09:46] <wojcienty> elo
[09:46] <josephg> Curly_Q: without doubt irssi
[09:46] <orson> !best | Curly_Q
[09:46] <darolu> Curly_Q: I use XChat, remember, there is no such thing as "best" software

[09:47] <linuxpjc780> ardchoille - OK, so I ran the install command for them in Terminal.  Where do I get their manual [pages] - to know how to use them in Terminal (i.e. what commands to enter)?
[09:48] <sabat> I'm using xchat, but in windows I normally use mirc
[09:48] <sabat> I used to use bitchx with the crackrock addon, miss that.

[09:48] <darolu> sabat: sorry, your video card is not supported for newest xorg version; ATI stopped supporting your card (among others) on february 2009
[09:49] <darolu> sabat: this is the "legacy driver" webpage: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Legacy/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.7&product=<IP_ADDRESS>.3.3.1&lang=English
[09:49] <sabat> ok
[09:49] <Curly_Q> I am using Pirch98 right now. It is one of the best IRC Clients I have ever used. I am looking forward to using Xchat again and others.
[09:49] <sabat> so, does that mean I am SOL, or that I need to install an older driver or what
[09:49] <basajaun> http://pastebin.com/GrnB6rQf Can somebody have a look at tis and help me sort out the mount mess
[09:49] <darolu> sabat: if you want to use the proprietary driver, you can install Ubuntu 8.04; not sure if installing and old kernel/xserver would work
[09:50] <sarthor> Hi, in ubuntu, i fix 3 lan cards, and ubunntu give name to that lan cards like, eth0, eth1, eth2, Now i remove the 2 lan cards, and only one eth2 remaining, How can i change this eth2 to eth0, from where we can change or clear these ethX name,
[09:51] <frogzoo> /etc/iftab
[09:51] <sabat> if I install 8.04, and run the updates, will it mess up that driver do you think?
[09:51] <ardchoille> linuxpjc780: the first thing you should dl with rkhunter is run these two commands: sudo rkhunter --update
[09:51] <Curly_Q> I have seen software that utilizes a Web based program that connects to IRC. Is there one for Linux?
[09:51] <ardchoille> linuxpjc780: sudo rkhunter --propupd
[09:51] <darolu> sabat: no, it means you need older Linux kernel and Xserver; if you absolutely need to use the proprietary driver install Ubuntu 8.04 LTS; a lot of us are really upset about ATI not supporting our video cards anymore =( anyways the open driver is not bad
[09:51] <darolu> sabat: No, it wont' mess it up
[09:52] <sergio__> ola

[09:54] <llutz> sarthor: check  /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[09:55] <Curly_Q> Sarthor, why not just put back the original eth0 card in that pci slot? It will see the MAC address of that card.

[09:57] <sarthor> llutz, thanks bro.
[09:57] <linuxpjc780> ardchoille - can you help me configure Firestarter, now that I have it installed?  I am on a wireless connection via a router ...
[09:57] <vegar_> However, this does not work since I'm guessing internal drives need sudo to mount
[09:57] <ardchoille> linuxpjc780: I don't use it
[09:57] <vegar_> how can the regular desktop users mount the partitions? what is the recommended way?
[09:58] <llutz> sarthor: you even can delete that file, it should be created new with next boot
[09:58] <linuxpjc780> Does anyone else know how to configure Firestarter to work as it should - if you are on a wireless connection?

[10:07] <knoppies> madjoe, get a second opinion then. But I still think a clean install is a good idea. I would backup anything in your home partition before formatting.
[10:07] <linuxpjc780> yellowbabe - I don't know if ufw is installed.  I'm pretty new to Ubuntu ...
[10:07] <glorika> tu quien eres
[10:08] <madjoe> knoppies: I plan to backup everything by using this approach - http://lubi.sourceforge.net/lvpm.html
[10:08] <almoxarife> madjoe: I recommend clean also, 9.04 to 9.10 was crappy thru upgrade
[10:09] <darolu> basajaun: what is the problem? everything seems all right to me. did you create all the mount points directories?
[10:09] <madjoe> almoxarife: thanks, dude... I just made a clean install of 9.10 and waiting for a decision on 10.4
[10:09] <q0_0p> how can an ip of 99.x.x.x have a subnet mask of <IP_ADDRESS>?
[10:09] <tuxnani> when can i place order for ubuntu 10.04
[10:10] <tuxnani> is there telugu version of ubuntu?
[10:11] <almoxarife> madjoe: I am going to run 10.4 on virtualbox, then decide if I want to bother with the install, and it will still be a clean install, I finally figured out that keeping the home and etc folders backed up is all one really needs to return the sys to what it was
[10:11] <ardchoille> almoxarife: you do realize that 10.04 is still in development and hasn't been released yet, right?
[10:11] <madjoe> almoxarife: what do you use for a backup? have you tried http://lubi.sourceforge.net/lvpm.html ?
[10:12] <almoxarife> ardchoille: I do
[10:12] <ardchoille> ok
[10:12] <almoxarife> madjoe: nice and simple 'sback' with a gui even
[10:12] <basajaun> darolu  I have used an app called pysdm and I haven edited the fstab myself but what annoys me id the fact some drive are mounted with another label on reboot so some programs (music) have to rescan for files or give errors
[10:13] <almoxarife> madjoe: 'sbackup' I mean
[10:13] <Curly_Q> <IP_ADDRESS>=Class A
[10:13] <Curly_Q> <IP_ADDRESS>=Class B
[10:13] <Curly_Q> <IP_ADDRESS>=Class C

[10:13] <madjoe> almoxarife: ok, I'm on it..
[10:14] <darolu> basajaun: change the mountpoints to whatever your apps are using; right now they are being mounted to /media/sdXX, go to your music app and see what directory is it looking files from and edit your fstab file accordingly; remember you have to create the mount points directories too
[10:14] <almoxarife> what about the new ubuntu, is it worth the install?

[10:16] <almoxarife> neat? :)
[10:16] <zinox> the bestboot is very dangerous.. somebody can type "the best app command line is "rm -rf *" so, any newbie ubuntu user damage your system typing that.
[10:16] <darolu> cool? :)
[10:16] <basajaun> darolu how do I do that ?
[10:17] <Parsi> how can i find out my vga driver installed properly?
[10:17] <almoxarife> linuxpjc780: if your wifi is anything like my setup I would look for wlan0
[10:17] <almoxarife> wlan(x) linuxpjc780
[10:18] <Shawe> buenas
[10:18] <darolu> basajaun: open a terminal and type: sudo mkdir /media/<yourdirectory> then go to your fstab file (gksu gedit /etc/fstab) and change the mount points accordingly, right now they all are /media/sdXX that's the part you need to change so they match your music app directories

[10:19] <almoxarife> linuxpjc780: there will be two places to monitor, on a wifi connection both local and internet are wlan(x), unless you have both wifi and ether on the same machine
[10:20] <Shawe> darolu, yes, I see this, normally but default it join to ubuntu-es, I don't know why know is different
[10:20] <linuxpjc780> almoxarife - I don't get "wlan(x)" for options in the "Detected Devices" drop-down in the wizard ...  Does this mean the software hasn't detected my wireless connection?  If so, how do I get it to do so?
[10:21] <madjoe> almoxarife: sweet.. thanks for that info about sbackup.. I'm a new Ubuntu user... is it possible to use that user settings automatically on a new installation of the same branch?
[10:22] <madjoe> almoxarife: I use wubi installation and I'm looking for nice and easy way to make it a native installation of Ubuntu
[10:22] <almoxarife> madjoe: I use wubi too
[10:23] <madjoe> I plan to make it a real installation... Wubi is an implementation for Windows to run Ubuntu like a program, lot's of risks, simple defragg of NTFS brings system down, bad performance, hard recovery, bad support.
[10:23] <almoxarife> linuxpjc780: is your connection via wifi?
[10:23] <linuxpjc780> Yes - wireless.
[10:23] <Tm_T> madjoe: backup the data you need and then reinstall
[10:24] <Tm_T> madjoe: there's no (reasonable) way to migrate from wubi to proper installation
[10:24] <almoxarife> madjoe: I am waiting for the wubi 10.4 also, suppose to be able to fake it with betas
[10:24] <linuxpjc780> almoxarife - the modem is run into a wireless router that then broadcasts the signal, that is.  So orignally, its a hard-wired connection.

[10:24] <madjoe> Tm_T: I know.. but can I use that backup on a new installation, to avoid all that setup, tweaks and installing custom applications I need?
[10:25] <Tm_T> madjoe: your user settings can be used, and you can export list of installed packages and use that in new install to get the same
[10:25] <madjoe> Flannel: wow.. this is why I love Open source squad.. lol .. thanks man!
[10:25] <almoxarife> linuxpjc780: try this, restart your machine into ubuntu, bring up firestarter, then see if 'wlan(x) is an option
[10:25] <llutz> madjoe: tar your installation, use live-cd to create a "real" partition, untar your tar to it, repair fstab and grub
[10:26] <madjoe> llutz: danke sch├Čn
[10:28] <madjoe> llutz: how can I repair fstab and grub? do you have some hints for me?
[10:28] <almoxarife> madjoe: once you have the new install in place the only thing left is to re-install packages you may not have installed in the clean, the home and etc folders should have the conf's from the setup you had before for what ever you had that was extra
[10:28] <llutz> madjoe: when running from live-cd, check "blkid" for UUIDs of / and swap, use those in your /etc/fstab then

[10:32] <pyqt_2010_newbie> regenerate the grub menu list
[10:32] <priyank> actually iwann to access ubuntu partitions from window can anybody help?
[10:33] <linuxpjc780> almoxarife - NOPE, restarting didn't work to have Firestarter detect my wireless network ...
[10:33] <llutz> abhi_nav: what do you expect those apps to do for you?
[10:33] <priyank> actually iwann to access ubuntu partitions from window can anybody help?
[10:33] <ef> hey guys i need help! i was playing around with compact-driver and now i dont know how to enable my old intel3945 wlan driver
[10:34] <lorenzo_> #ubuntu-it
[10:34] <abhi_nav> llutz: I want to detect if anyone is trying to access my rounter, i want to access some 'specia' sites which I want nobody to know
[10:34] <lorenzo_> #ubuntu-it-chat
[10:34] <almoxarife> linuxpjc780: you did the firestarter 'run wizard'?
[10:34] <linuxuz3r>  hi
[10:34] <linuxuz3r>  how do i use gdb with an input file for my program
[10:34] <linuxuz3r>  how do i gdb this program.out < inputfile
[10:35] <abhi_nav> router*, 'special'*
[10:35] <llutz> abhi_nav: so you have to install that apps on your router, not your pc. for "special-sites" think about using a vpn
[10:35] <knoppies> abhi_nav, One method of doing what you want to do (not sure if its the best method) is to use an encrypted VPN, but I think ssh might be what your looking for.
[10:36] <linuxuz3r> please
[10:36] <abhi_nav> llutz: knoppies : ok
[10:36] <knoppies> abhi_nav, some of the better routers have VPN settings in them, but as llutz said, you probably want to install it on your PC, not your router.
[10:37] <abhi_nav> llutz: & knoppies: by router I mean my ISP has given me one box called as router from which I connect to Internet
[10:37] <linuxpjc780> almoxarife - yes, the wizard automatically comes up after you open Firestarter.  Still no wfla in the Detected Devices drop-down ...
[10:37] <llutz> abhi_nav: if you don't trust your ISP, use your own router
[10:37] <abhi_nav> llutz: hmmm
[10:37] <Dr_Willis> if you dont trust your isp.. change isps ?
[10:37] <Dr_Willis> or pay for a proxy service.
[10:37] <llutz> Dr_Willis: ^^ :)
[10:37] <almoxarife> linuxpjc780: wlan
[10:37] <abhi_nav> Dr_willis: haa haa :)
[10:37] <knoppies> llutz, abhi_nav, they would still be able to sniff your traffic woudlnt they?
[10:38] <knoppies> Dr_Willis, we suggested VPN over Proxy.
[10:38] <madjoe> llutz: if I use tar/untar, then I don't need sbackup or anything like that... right? do you think it's a better option? sure, I don't have to manually tweak my new applications again, but is it a secure enough to give it a try?
[10:38] <linuxpjc780> almoxarife - wlan, that's what I meant ... still not showing ...
[10:38] <llutz> knoppies: sure they are, question is why they should (as it costs money)
[10:38] <abhi_nav> knoppies: actually I have instaled tor but I dont use it because it slows my speed
[10:38] <abhi_nav> knoppies: Dr_Willis: llutz: is there any free encrypted vpn service? I am student.
[10:38] <llutz> madjoe: i don't know sbackup, i'm using only tar/rsync for this tasks, but other tools may work too
[10:39] <linuxuz3r> guys hu
[10:39] <linuxuz3r> hi
[10:39] <linuxuz3r> any gdb expert here?
[10:39] <llutz> madjoe: you just have to make sure, that all stuff except /dev /proc /sys is copied, and the permissions will be stored too
[10:40] <knoppies> llutz, Im not sure what kind of logs they keep, but they could use scripts to do the dirty work. abhi_nav is probably just being paranoid, but here in New Zealand they are comming out with laws to prevent Piracy and the ISPs are obliged to obey the law.
[10:40] <riveraj> gud day! can i use squid to log all websites accessed by workstations inside the network?
[10:40] <abhi_nav> knoppies: Dr_Willis: llutz: does vn slows down my speed as that of tor does?
[10:40] <llutz> knoppies: same here in .de but for "antiterror-purposes" :(
[10:40] <knoppies> abhi_nav, it depends what kind of VPN you use, in theory yes, will it be noticeable? depends on which vpn you use.
[10:41] <abhi_nav> knoppies: hmm
[10:41] <alzamabar> The password changing tool in Ubuntu 9.10 does not work
[10:42] <knoppies> abhi_nav, my brother uses a free VPN service so that hey gets a US 'external IP' for some websites, I think its called hotspot, but I dont use it myself so Im not sure.
[10:42] <knoppies> abhi_nav, as its an open/free/anybody can use it VPN, expect it to be slow.
[10:42] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:   tor is a major slowdown... id hope a vpn is no where near as bad
[10:42] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  if you want a good service you will have to pay for it.
[10:42] <xfact> ?
[10:42] <xfact> ?
[10:42] <xfact> ?
[10:42] <abhi_nav> knoppies: Dr_Willis: llutz: why I am being paranoid is within last 2 moth my pc was 2 times automatically suddenly shuted down and for 3-4 times automatically logged out. Other reason is that i want to access that 'special sites'
[10:42] <FloodBot2> xfact: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:42] <linuxpjc780> Does anyone know how to get Firestarter to detect my wireless network?
[10:42] <ef> does apt-get has intel3945 wlan driver??
[10:43] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:   theres paranoid - then there tinfoil hat paranoid.
[10:43] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: hmm
[10:43] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: :D
[10:43] <Dr_Willis> dont install any services you dont need... and so forth..
[10:43] <Dr_Willis> set up an y servces to only listen to local lan.. yadda yadda....
[10:43] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: ok
[10:43] <knoppies> abhi_nav, autoshutdown? sounds more like a trojan than your ISP, some random restarts could be caused by an underpowered PSU.
[10:44] <Dr_Willis> of course pcs are also able to auto shut down on overheat i belove.
[10:44] <llutz> sounds more like a hardware issue than something spy-related
[10:44] <abhi_nav> knoppies: yah its auto shut down. suddenlly happens
[10:44] <madjoe> llutz: with this command you gave me "sudo tar --one-file-system -cvf /media/external/myinstall.tar /" I would tar everything.. so, do you suggest to tar everything except /dev /proc /sys?
[10:44] <knoppies> Dr_Willis, sounds more like alienating yourself than being paranoid. talk about OTT.
[10:44] <abhi_nav> Overheat may be one of the majore reason here
[10:45] <abhi_nav> Because my pc really overheats
[10:45] <jbu> hi all, is there a widget/desklet app for ubuntu/gnome with more selection than gdesklets?
[10:45] <knoppies> abhi_nav, clean out the dust from your case. try invest in a new case/fans.
[10:45] <hn8456> hello
[10:45] <llutz> madjoe: the --one-file-system" prevents /dev, /sys /proc from being backed up, as they are on "own filesystems" (not your /)
[10:45] <abhi_nav> knoppies: yah thinking for it now
[10:45] <hn8456> how i can convert a ape file to mp3 with same audio quality ?
[10:45] <hn8456> i use ffmpeg
[10:45] <abhi_nav> !overheating
[10:46] <abhi_nav> mmm
[10:46] <madjoe> llutz: wow, that is a valuable info.. thanks again!
[10:46] <llutz> madjoe: if you have separate /home, you have to back it up too
[10:46] <knoppies> abhi_nav, my machine restarts on overheating, rather than shutting down. Same would apply for an underpowered PSU.
[10:46] <madjoe> llutz: I think I'm ready to go with this approach
[10:46] <llutz> madjoe: try it and check for success before deleting your wubi-inst
[10:47] <knoppies> abhi_nav, Im logging off. Hope you find what you looking for.
[10:47] <mino> hi
[10:47] <llutz> madjoe: and make sure to have a live-cd ready
[10:47] <abhi_nav> knoppies: how to make sure my PSU is not underpowerd? and before that what is PSU? What should ideal temp of my laptop be? its +0.0c now what +0.0 means?
[10:47] <abhi_nav> knoppies: ok
[10:47] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: ok
[10:48] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: llutz: how to make sure my PSU is not underpowerd? and before that what is PSU? What should ideal temp of my laptop be? its +0.0c now what +0.0 means?
[10:48] <mino> http://www.pastie.org/846596 - Problem with my soundcard since today. Yesterday everything worked fine. But now the kernel doesnt load my soundcard anymore
[10:48] <Dr_Willis> if the laptop is reporting 0C - then im guessing it has some issues where it dosent know what its temp is.. Or else you got it in the freezer
[10:48] <apparle> when is the next alpha releasing ?
[10:48] <Dr_Willis> !release
[10:49] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: No :) its not in the freezer. How to correct this temp prob?
[10:49] <Dr_Willis> apparle:  alp3 was like yesterday.. so next is Beta i think
[10:49] <apparle> Dr_Willis: link me to alpha3
[10:49] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  no idea. check the forums for your exact make laptop
[10:49] <Dr_Willis> apparle:  #ubuntu+1
[10:49] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: is it that my temp sensors are not woking?
[10:50] <crimzor__> i get I get a sigsegv in XF86DRIQueryExtension () from /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 when running fglrxinfo, glxgears etc. :(
[10:50] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  if its reading 0C - then I would think - its NOT working
[10:50] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: so where should I start with temp troubleshooting now? any link? any doc,manual etc?
[10:51] <sulo> Hallo, i have a question and i hope anyone can help me
[10:51] <ubunturos> !ask | sulo
[10:51] <sulo> Oh Ok^^
[10:51] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>   check the forums for your exact make laptop
[10:51] <xfact> Humm I am now from empathy
[10:52] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: ok! fine thnx
[10:52] <faileas> a little OT, but i'm setting up a dualstack server ipv6 server on a system i'm using. if i can connect to <IP_ADDRESS> locally, it should mean that its listening on ipv4 right?
[10:52] <sulo> i want to install Ubuntu notebook remix, and i have 3 Partion
[10:52] <sulo> xp, data, and a free partition
[10:53] <jbu> hi all, how would I change my default file explorer? There doesn't seem to be a place in 'preferred applications' for swapping out nautilus with something else
[10:53] <abhi_nav> Netbook remix

[10:55] <abhi_nav> what is PSU?
[10:56] <abhi_nav> !PSU
[10:56] <llutz> abhi_nav: power supply unit
[10:56] <abhi_nav> llutz: hmm
[10:57] <Dr_Willis> jbu:  doing such a 'swap' is not trivial.
[10:57] <madjoe> Anybody knows a good alternative for an image viewer that is capable to show animated gifs?
[10:57] <madjoe> Or is there a working patch for the default viewer?
[10:59] <Slart> madjoe: I suppose firefox is too clumsy? at least it works.. I think
[11:00] <madjoe> Slart: lol... it is... very clumsy
[11:00] <madjoe> Slart: it's like cutting a slice of bread with a chainsaw :)
[11:01] <Slart> madjoe: or.. in this case.. cutting a several years old, moldy, smelly bread with a chainsaw =)
[11:02] <madjoe> Slart: errr... cutting a slice of a bread was my metaphor for viewing animated gifs :)
[11:03] <jakiw_> exit
[11:05] <Dr_Willis> gimp can view animat gifs :)
[11:05] <Dr_Willis> wine irfanview.exe
[11:06] <Slart> madjoe: and I think of animated gifs as something from the dusty graveyard of the web.. something best left alone.. undisturbed =)
[11:06] <plustax_> I am running9.10 and I have no sound. It just crackles. Someone help!!
[11:06] <abhi_nav> I dont understand how to understand the time for ubuntu-classroom. UTC to local time conversion. How to do that. date -u says its 11.00 now. And in ubuntu-classroom schedule there is one lecture for 11.00. But now there seemns to be no lecture. How to solve this time issue?
[11:06] <madjoe> Slart: then we have a match in understanding tho... lol :D
[11:06] <llutz> madjoe: gwenview shows animated-gifs
[11:06] <Slart> madjoe: it seems gthumb can at least show animated gifs.. it seems the timing might be off though
[11:07] <llutz> madjoe: but it's kde/qt
[11:07] <madjoe> Slart: yes it does... but I didn't try it.. is gthumb descent comparing with the default image viewer?
[11:08] <Slart> madjoe: I have no idea.. never tried it myself
[11:08] <madjoe> ok

[11:13] <micheleainardi> BUONGIORNO  a tutti
[11:13] <micheleainardi> che software si pu├▓ utilizzare per fare montaggi video?
[11:14] <linuxpjc780> I have a question - is it hard to do a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10?  I have my computer dual-booted with Linux and Windows (i.e. drive is partitioned)?  Can I simply re-install Ubuntu 9.10 fresh on the current partition it sits on?
[11:14] <linuxpjc780> I think I might have gotten a virus or two.
[11:15] <exploit100> sure "linuxpjc780"
[11:15] <hystreni> Hello, i have made a hidden file and i cant find it... how do i open it?
[11:15] <Slart> hystreni: ctrl+h in nautilus to make it show hidden files
[11:15] <linuxpjc780> exploit100 - OK, so how do I do this?
[11:15] <apparle> linuxpjc780: virus on ubuntu?
[11:16] <hystreni> Slart, thansk ^
[11:16] <Slart> hystreni: but hidden files act just as normal files.. it's just a dot in the filename
[11:16] <exploit100> install?
[11:17] <linuxpjc780> apparle - I don't know.  I'm running "Virus Scanner" (the ClamTk app) on the IBM_Preload.  It's only 10 percent done - and it's already telling me it's found 8 viruses.  Is this BS?
[11:17] <Dr_Willis_> linuxpjc780:  depends on what its found
[11:17] <exploit100> not connecting yet "frankS2"
[11:18] <apparle> Dr_Willis_: +1
[11:18] <Dr_Willis_> If its found stuff in your WarezTorrents directory... well..... :)
[11:18] <exploit100> after add the Userid is it automically connect?
[11:18] <Slart> linuxpjc780: I don't think there are any viruses for linux going around.. clam is more oriented towards finding windows viruses.. which doesn't affect your linux machine
[11:19] <micheleainardi> which software for manipulate video ?
[11:19] <Dr_Willis_> wine windowsvirusinstaler.exe   :)
[11:19] <linuxpjc780> Slart - so then why is it saying it has found viruses?
[11:19] <Dr_Willis_> linuxpjc780:  pastebin the output of what its found...
[11:19] <madjoe> llutz: it seems like gthumb is more advanced than Eye of Gnome http://packages.debian.org/hu/sid/debug/gthumb-dbg
[11:19] <Dr_Willis_> Its not scanning your windows files is it? :)
[11:20] <Slart> linuxpjc780: because it has? read what I wrote again..
[11:21] <linuxpjc780> Dr_Willis - I don't know.  Does "Virus Scanner" scan the Windows files too?  Slart - yes, Virus Scanner says it has found viruses.
[11:21] <TheStreetRacer> ubuntu-it-chat
[11:22] <exploit100> in your windows ?
[11:23] <Dr_Willis_> linuxpjc780:  if you told it a path where it can find windows files.. yes it does
[11:23] <Slart> linuxpjc780: clam is mostly for searching for windows viruses.. there are very few, if any, linux viruses going around... so.. if you run clam on your linux machine and scans, for example, an external drive that is infected with a windows virus (from dualbooting or something like that) it will tell you that is has found a virus.. does this mean your linux machine is infected? no
[11:23] <miyabi> haloooo....i'm newby.
[11:24] <exploit100> kmon achen miyabi?
[11:24] <miyabi> yes..
[11:24] <nimrod10> micheleainardi, try kdenlive or openshot
[11:25] <exploit100> where are from?
[11:25] <miyabi> jawa
[11:25] <linuxpjc780> I think I should just do a fresh install of Ubuntu.  How do I do this.  My drive is partioned.  With Ubuntu on one, and Windows XP on the other.
[11:25] <linuxpjc780> ???
[11:25] <Dr_Willis_> linuxpjc780:  tell the installer to put / where your / is at.
[11:26] <Dr_Willis_> linuxpjc780:  but whats this going to acomplish?
[11:26] <exploit100> same thing "linuxpjc780"
[11:26] <sidh> Greetings Gentlemen
[11:27] <sidh> because of a known bug for VirtualBox and karmic amd64, i have to recompile a kernel
[11:27] <sidh> so i followed that how to http://blog.avirtualhome.com/2009/11/03/how-to-compile-a-kernel-for-ubuntu-karmic/
[11:27] <linuxpjc780> Dr_Willis - I don't understand your first statement.  What do you mean by "/ ".  If I do a fresh install, won't it wipe out any infection that could be there?
[11:28] <lorenzo_> #ubuntu-it
[11:28] <lorenzo_> #ubuntu-it-chat
[11:28] <Dr_Willis_> linuxpjc780: '  / '   is the root of the filesystem. You have one partion mounted to /    you also have one set as home
[11:28] <Dr_Willis_> linuxpjc780:  you could have other partitons  mounted as /home or /var/ or other /XXXXX locations but / is the 'root' of the filesystem
[11:29] <Dr_Willis_> You may want to read up on linux filesystems a bit.
[11:29] <exploit100> right
[11:29] <sidh> but while running (as mentionned ) the ./debian/scripts/misc/kernelconfig oldconfig, i get this error : ./debian/scripts/misc/kernelconfig: line 142: /home/sidh/devpt/kernel/lucid/source//scripts/misc/../config-check: No such file or directory
[11:29] <Dr_Willis_> !lfs
[11:29] <Dr_Willis_> Hmm  perhaps its !LSB
[11:29] <Dr_Willis_> !lsb
[11:29] <Slart> !fsh
[11:29] <Dr_Willis_> Heh -no url to the default layout :)
[11:29] <madjoe> Slart: gThumb is a very good replacement for Eye of Gnome.. I just tried it
[11:29] <sidh> of course config-check is in ./debian/scripts/config-check (find command tells me that)
[11:30] <Slart> madjoe: ah.. great
[11:30] <sidh> do you know how to correct this
[11:30] <sidh> ?
[11:31] <madjoe> Slart: I'm in my Nautilus now.. where do I set it as a default image viewer?
[11:31] <PingFloyd> !fs
[11:31] <linuxpjc780> Dr_Willis - Yes, pardon me.  I'm new to Ubuntu :)  So would a re-installation of Ubuntu be: #1) a complicated process? #2) Successfully clean out any infections?
[11:32] <Slart> madjoe: I'm not sure if there is one setting where you can change the app for all images.. you can right click on a file and select properties, open with and set the default app for that file type.. but I think you'll have to do that for each file type
[11:32] <exploit100> first time you installed your self ? linuxpjc
[11:33] <linuxpjc780> exploit100 - no, I had someone walk me through it on here ...
[11:33] <exploit100> oh i see
[11:34] <exploit100> you mean to say you can not install UbUNTU?
[11:35] <Dr_Willis_> linuxpjc780:  #1 - im not ure you ARE infected at all. and reinstalling   dosent take me very long.   tell it to use /  on your old install.. let it reformat.. go get a soda..
[11:37] <Dam0> hey
[11:38] <linuxpjc780> exploit - I haven't done it before on my own.  I think "Virus Scanner" is scanning Windows directories, as I watching the path names it is searching ...  So how do I do this?  I have an IBM Thinkpad.  I would reinsert the install discs while still in Ubuntu.  And where do you tell it to use the root on my old install?  I'm sorry - but I'm still pretty new to all this ...
[11:39] <madjoe> Slart: haha... I don't believe there's an easier option on setting the default application in Nautilus... :D
[11:41] <Dr_Willis_> linuxpjc780:  if its showing you got Windows viruses on your windows install. then  its nothing todo with Linux at all.
[11:41] <Dr_Willis_> linuxpjc780:  sounds like you may be wanting to reinstall windows.. not linux
[11:42] <madjoe> lol
[11:44] <linuxpjc780> Dr_Willis_- That's odd.  I could I get a Windows virus while in Ubuntu?
[11:45] <Dr_Willis_> linuxpjc780:  we never said that.. Its more likely you got windows viruses while on windows....
[11:46] <micheleainardi> anyone known a way for to input a video from S_Video?
[11:47] <micheleainardi> can I open video playing into a videocamera from S-Video?
[11:47] <gustin> micheleainardi: yes
[11:47] <micheleainardi> gustin: which software?
[11:47] <gustin> you need a video card with S-video out, and it needs to be supported by Linux
[11:48] <balsat> use tvtime
[11:48] <spychalski> argh, i can't get flash to work as it should (cant click on the videos and stufff
[11:48] <gustin> you are sending from your computer to an S-Video device, right?
[11:48] <balsat> or xawtv
[11:48] <madjoe> Hey, guys! Do you know this girl? Is she here btw? LOL Well, if she uses Ubuntu, I'd like to be her slave! LMAO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gl-tmGfQrzs
[11:48] <micheleainardi> gustin: no.. I have video into videocamera. It has S-video out . so I can input from my pc S-Video?
[11:49] <linuxpjc780> Dr_Willis_- I would probably be fine with just reformating so that I would only be running Ubuntu.  I don't trust Windows anyway - when it's slower and less secure.  So what is the point of having it dual-booted?
[11:49] <gustin> micheleainardi: then you need a specific video card for this, I have used hauppage PCI cards in the past for this
[11:49] <Dr_Willis_>  micheleainardi  svideo on a Video card is video OUT.  You need somthign with an Svideo IN.
[11:49] <V4mpire> anyone know of a way to check system hardward within linux to try find out why it keeps switching off at times ?
[11:49] <Dr_Willis_> micheleainardi:  Like a TV tuner card.
[11:50] <micheleainardi> I need to by wirefire (or firewire) cable
[11:50] <micheleainardi> :(
[11:50] <gustin> linuxpjc780: dual booting will cause more grief than it is worth unless you know what you are doing.  Pick one OS and stick with it (or get two computers)
[11:50] <Dr_Willis_> Firewire transfers from a camcorder will be a LOT faster
[11:50] <abhi_nav> hi
[11:51] <Dr_Willis_> and look better
[11:51] <gustin> micheleainardi: I have never done this with firewire, sorry
[11:51] <micheleainardi> ok.. tahnk's
[11:51] <Dr_Willis_> I got a camcorder that actrually shows up as a USB hd.
[11:51] <gustin> mine does as well, I have a cheap chinese one that uses SD cards
[11:51] <linuxpjc780> gustin - what kind of grief will it cause in the long run?  The only reason I did this originally - was that in case one OS or partition failed, I would have backup.
[11:52] <abhi_nav> which is the best instant messanging client? which you use?
[11:52] <abhi_nav> other than pidgin
[11:52] <gustin> linuxpjc780: it is very easy to trash the boot loader.  One only needs to be moderately profficient to keep dual booting working
[11:52] <gustin> linuxpjc780: but IMO it is not worth the time
[11:53] <linuxpjc780> gustin - what is IMO?  And when you say "trash the boot loader" - do you mean "mess it up"?
[11:54] <erUSUL> in my opinion
[11:54] <gustin> linuxpjc780: IMO = In My Opinion, as in I do not wish to indicate that this is some sort of accepted truth
[11:55] <gnomemercy> I prefer having a dual boot,I use linux about 95% of the time, but every now and then I like to load something with wine (games mostly) like WoW is one of them.
[11:55] <exploit100> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/installing      = linuxpjc780
[11:56] <gustin> linuxpjc780: and yes, trash the boot loader means to mess it up.  For example, re-installing windows will overwrite the boot loader, and Linux will not be selectable at boot.  It will appear to have vanished.  THis is easy to fix but it will take time, particularly if this is all new to you
[11:57] <gustin> gnomemercy: that is why I stated that it is my opinion.  It is cheaper for me to have a seperate computer instead of wasting time fixing the odd dual boot issue.
[11:57] <gustin> gnomemercy: besides I use either vmware or virtual box for most of my Windows "needs".  Other than for gaming this works well.

[12:00] <safe> How do I enable guest account? I thought I did it via Users and groups, but none exists in GDM.
[12:01] <stdisease> safe, is it possible to enable through gdm configuration? Or look at /etc/passwd and change the login shell from something like /bin/false or /usr/sbin/nologin to /bin/sh
[12:02] <stdisease> t
[12:02] <Industrial> I just installed ubuntu and then UNetbootin which edited the grub2 configuration to add an item. The grub2 bootloader is not showing me any grub menu and this is irritting me because now I can not select the Unetbootin option.
[12:02] <Industrial> I have tried looking in the /etc/grub.d/ config files and regenerating the grub config but I cannot seem to get it to wait 10secs
[12:03] <stdisease> Industrial, edit /etc/default/grub for the timeout
[12:03] <stdisease> Industrial, there's a variable GRUB_TIME="<secs>" you set then when dun run update-grub2
[12:05] <Dr_Willis_>  Unetbootin edited your grub's menu? Never seen it do that befor.
[12:05] <stdisease> Dr_Willis, yea strange isn't it, I thought unetbootin was syslinux-based
[12:06] <Industrial> stdisease: it had a HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true <-- EVIL.
[12:06] <frankS2> Hi, I installed ubuntu server, and I have now attached 2 harddrives for raid0 on the motherboard as software, how can i make ubuntu see tese ones?
[12:06] <Dr_Willis_> stdisease:  ive neer seen it alter anything OTHER then the usb drive you point it to.  Im not sure what you were doing withit.
[12:08] <stdisease> Dr_Willis, it's Industrial's question, just for the record
[12:09] <sidh> excuse me but i'm not used with ubuntu irc chans, so is there some specific dev chans dedicated to ubuntu ?
[12:09] <safe> stdisease: I can't choose "Dont ask for password on login" for the guest account.
[12:09] <stdisease> sidh, there's #ubuntu+1 for pre-release/development
[12:10] <erUSUL> frankS2: you are using motherboard bios raid (aka fakeraid) ?
[12:10] <sidh> ah ok thanks you for the info
[12:10] <bassliner> anyone experiencing umlaut-problems after an update on an ubuntu server box as well?
[12:10] <frankS2> erUSUL: yes
[12:11] <erUSUL> frankS2: if you are going to use that only in linux is better not to. Use linux software raid stack
[12:11] <frankS2> erUSUL: i am only going to use it in linux yes
[12:12] <erUSUL> frankS2: then cnfigure the sata controller as ahci or normal sata (not raid) and assemble a raid array for linux to use using mdadm
[12:12] <erUSUL> !raid | frankS2
[12:14] <stdisease> huh flimsy grammar on the 1st article
[12:14] <richzilla> hi all
[12:15] <richzilla> anyone know why terminal doesnt seem to recognise the cd.. command?
[12:15] <LjL> richbecause there is no such command. you can, however, "cd .."
[12:15] <LjL> richzilla^
[12:15] <Dr_Willis_> richzilla:  you are thinking DOS
[12:15] <stdisease> (as appreciated as the user contribution is)
[12:15] <Dr_Willis_> dos - where you can be sloppy with spaces...
[12:15] <erUSUL> frankS2: http://bfish.xaedalus.net/2006/11/software-raid-5-in-ubuntu-with-mdadm/ <<<< in this blog he uses 3 devices to create a raid 5 just make the changes to make a raid 1 or 0
[12:15] <stdisease> Richie, in other distros (Mandriva for 1) it's an alias for "cd .."
[12:16] <richzilla> ahhh
[12:16] <Dr_Willis_> how about '..' for an alias? :)  or can that work?
[12:16] <stdisease> richzilla, you can either get used to the more correct form, or define an alias in your .bashrc
[12:16] <richzilla> ahhh thanks for the help
[12:16] <richzilla> dont knwo how ive never spotted the apce before
[12:16] <richzilla> space
[12:18] <frankS2> http://pastie.org/846638
[12:18] <frankS2> could some disk experts take a look at this?
[12:18] <frankS2> new problem... cant create/remove partitions
[12:18] <nagchampa> why is the ubuntu installer only seeing one hdd while gparted can see both fine?
[12:19] <stdisease> huh 1TB does NetBSD even need that much space!..
[12:19] <frankS2> stdisease: no heh
[12:19] <BulleTh0> lol @ stdisease
[12:19] <faileas> o0, what needs 1tb to install?
[12:20] <erUSUL> frankS2: seems to complain that the paritions/disk are in use (mounted)
[12:20] <frankS2> erUSUL: but they are not
[12:20] <linduxed> i'm trying to install a 3G modem with the help of the usb_modeswitch utility. the problem is however that when it comes to the point where it says "Looking for active driver" it should find the usb-storage driver, but doesn't. instead i get "No driver found. Either detached befor or never attached"
[12:20] <Dr_Willis_> see what the mount command says?
[12:20] <linduxed> is there a way to make it find the usb-storage driver?
[12:20] <frankS2> Dr_Willis_: checked, its not
[12:20] <erUSUL> frankS2: not much experience with bsd paritions ...
[12:21] <Dr_Willis_> actually if they are ntfs - the gvfs may have them mounted/inuse.
[12:21] <Dr_Willis_> You could use gparted to delete the ones you want to use. and lket the installer remake partions in the unallocated space
[12:21] <frankS2> erUSUL: i want to rm all of them and use them in linux
[12:21] <frankS2> erUSUL: just need to fix the hd, cuz i cant use them now heh
[12:21] <erUSUL> frankS2: sdb and sdc ?
[12:21] <Dr_Willis_> frankS2:  delete them in gparted then. reboot.. let installer do its thang
[12:21] <abhi_nav> Which software is used to password protect a particular folder?
[12:21] <frankS2> erUSUL: yes
[12:22] <stdisease> linduxed, 'modprobe usb-stroage' ?
[12:22] <erUSUL> abhi_nav: for home folder encription ecryptfs is used
[12:22] <leon702> HOLA ALGUIEN SABE ESPA├æOL
[12:22] <LjL> !es | leon702
[12:22] <stdisease> !es | leon702 : aqui hablan espanol
[12:22] <erUSUL> frankS2: create new parition tables in both devices. with gparted
[12:22] <abhi_nav> erUSUL not for home folder. its just one of the folder e.g. /home/abc/desktop/test
[12:23] <linduxed> stdisease: didn't help
[12:23] <frankS2> erUSUL: i can do that with sdb , but i cant format it, in sdc i get the error: FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition 3: Partition ends in the final partial cylinder
[12:23] <linduxed> stdisease: unless i should reboot the comp too
[12:23] <erUSUL> abhi_nav: it can be any folder. i'm saying what ubuntu uses for the home encription i case you want to use the same
[12:23] <stdisease> linduxed, well the usb-storage kernel module is probably loaded now, if that does nothing it's probably another driver that should be loaded
[12:23] <erUSUL> frankS2: that's why i ask you to make new parition tables (not new paritions)
[12:23] <erUSUL> frankS2: that's why i ask you to make new parition tables (not new partitions)
[12:24] <frankS2> erUSUL: oh how?
[12:24] <abhi_nav> erUSUL i want to share my home folder with frends. but want to lock that only one folder. all other folder wll be accesd.
[12:24] <erUSUL> abhi_nav: it is better to create a third folder to share things and leave your home folder to you
[12:25] <erUSUL> frankS2: gparted (gui) or parted (cli)
[12:25] <abhi_nav> erUSUL i dont mean network sharing. just want to lock a specific folder with password
[12:25] <mylisto2> hey everyone...
[12:25] <stdisease> abhi_nav, you will want to edit your smb.conf file and customize your shares
[12:25] <abhi_nav> I dont mean network sharing
[12:25] <isxios> .com
[12:25] <danyR> hi there. i installed an update today and now i can't acess https sites!
[12:25] <stdisease> Hello mylisto2
[12:25] <mylisto2> some weird issues just started on my laptop (running 8.04)
[12:26] <mylisto2> Just got back from work, went to jump on skype and yahoo (pidgin)...
[12:26] <erUSUL> abhi_nav: i undesrtand. but your home folder has your configuration files etc... trust me it is easier and safer to just create a /home/shared folder to share the things you want to share with other users
[12:26] <mylisto2> yahoo won't stay open..it opens then closes automatically..
[12:26] <mylisto2> and skype is doing the same thign basically
[12:26] <stdisease> mylisto2, can you launch them from a terminal and see what output it gives when those applications close?
[12:27] <mylisto2> ah never thought baout that
[12:27] <mylisto2> about that
[12:27] <mylisto2> brb
[12:27] <abhi_nav> erUSUL ok tell me can i have a script or something like that which wll delete my specific unpreviledge account if i dont open that unpreviledged account for 'n' number of days? can i write such scritp by my own? is it availabve already?
[12:28] <erUSUL> abhi_nav: really dunno from the top of my head. you would have to do some research
[12:28] <abhi_nav> erUSUL hmm ok
[12:28] <mylisto2> stdisease: it just says aborted in terminal
[12:29] <gioul> !list
[12:30] <stdisease> mylisto2, same for the 2nd app?
[12:30] <mylisto2> stdisease: here is a pastebin of what I get in terminal when pidgin crashes
[12:30] <mylisto2> http://pastebin.com/2tNyPYMq
[12:30] <linduxed> stdisease: well ill try forcing the module in some way
[12:31] <stdisease> mylisto2, hmm, I've seen those errors usually when you update libc6. Can you see if there are any updates to glib and libpurple and install them?
[12:32] <stdisease> mylisto2, use aptitude or whatever software you usually use to install things
[12:33] <mylisto2> stdisease: what do you mean?
[12:33] <stdisease> mylisto2, from terminal, 'sudo aptitude'
[12:33] <stdisease> mylisto2, then look at the list of packages available for update, updated them all if possible  then see if crash still happens
[12:33] <Guest18170> kaixo
[12:33] <nexsja> 'ello, i've had some trouble with wifi, so i decided to reboot, after rebooting the system wanted to do a disk check, so i let it
[12:33] <nexsja> after the system booted up all my nvidia drivers were lost
[12:33] <phpmonk> mylisto2, stdisease : is it not a font problem ?
[12:34] <viliny> http://packages.ubuntu.com/sl/dapper/libc6-udeb
[12:34] <stdisease> nexsja, booted into another kernel version? you'll have to reinstall the nvidia driver
[12:34] <nexsja> i've downloaded 190 drivers from nvidia website, though i can't install them, says something about my gcc-4.4 version and that i don't have my kernel sources
[12:34] <nexsja> stdisease, yes, i've recently updated the kernel version
[12:35] <nexsja> thought that would be a good idea :/
[12:35] <pw-toxic_> hi.. my computer is in suspend mode, and i cant leave the suspend mode anymore. Pressing the power button doesnt do anything. Any ideas?
[12:35] <stdisease> nexsja, install kernel sources or headers and use 'CC=gcc-4.3 sh NVIDIA-installer-xxx.sh'
[12:35] <mylisto2> phpmonk: how would I know if its a font problem?
[12:35] <viliny> your compiler is 4.4 while it wants 4.2, you can just bypass that
[12:35] <Gyjf> hey i have some problem with compiz, i use the wall and after update i cant drag windows between desktops
[12:35] <pw-toxic_> without suspend mode, my notebook is senseless
[12:35] <vianocturna85> wonder if anyone can make sense of this: im running karmic and keep getting 'partial update' option, when clicking on it it wants to upgrade my distro?
[12:36] <soreau> nexsja: When you use a different method other than the ubuntu provided method (sys>admin>hardware drivers) you will have to reinstall the nvidia driver after each kernel update
[12:36] <nexsja> soreau, thank you, got that :) now, all i need to do is download the new kernel sources?
[12:36] <stdisease> nexsja, CC=gcc-4.3 assuming the kernel was compiled with gcc 4.3.x , if the kernel was compiled with another version of course you'll have to pass what's appropriate like viliny said
[12:36] <yon> hello i require some help with Samba...  i have a folder that i want to share to everyone on the netowrk but only i can edit
[12:37] <soreau> Gyjf: Is ccsm>Wall>Edge Flipping>Edge Flip Move enabled?
[12:37] <yon> If i use Write List = yon and read only = yes i can access it but cannot create files
[12:37] <nexsja> does uname -a show my kernel version?
[12:37] <viliny> uname -r
[12:38] <soreau> nexsja: uname -r and you probably just need to install the kernel headers
[12:38] <nexsja> Package kernel-headers is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
[12:39] <viliny> nexsja, each and every kernel version has it's own header
[12:39] <Gyjf> Thankyou soreau, it worked!
[12:39] <soreau> Gyjf: Great :)
[12:39] <Gyjf> looked for 30 min and couldnt find the option
[12:39] <nexsja> viliny, so i've downloaded 2.6.32 kernel sources
[12:39] <lantizia> Since Ubuntu 9.10 has the later version of APT (with support for i386 packages on amd64)... how can I add a i386 repository and install from it in AMD64 land?
[12:39] <soreau> nexsja: Yes, you need to install the kernel header version for your kernel as reported by uname -r
[12:39] <viliny> nexsja, what exactly does your uname -r return?
[12:40] <nexsja> 2.6.32-020632-generic
[12:40] <damnn> Hi I formatted a partition under win7 and I can't read it with ubuntu. Gparted says it's sda7 but if I mount -t ntfs it does not show properly. Any idea?
[12:40] <stdisease> lantizia, which i386 packages do you need installed? The 32-bit compatibility stuff? you don't need i386 repo for that fyi
[12:40] <lantizia> damnn, did you format it fatx?
[12:41] <damnn> lantizia, no it's ntfs
[12:41] <stdisease> damnn, try -t ntfs-3g
[12:41] <lantizia> stdisease, no it's not that - it's a game that has a 32bit only APT repo
[12:41] <V4mpire> why is 9.10 labelled as #56-Ubuntu ?
[12:41] <yon> can anyone help me with my samba comfiguration (http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/kkHQ11yK) i want to make a directory accessable to everyone but only i can add and remove stuff
[12:41] <yon> PLz help :)
[12:42] <nexsja> viliny, i've downloaded 2.6.32 kernel sources and extracting them now, then, when i'm installing new drivers i need to do --kernel-source-path <path_to_source>, right?
[12:42] <viliny> nexsja, you can download deb packages too
[12:42] <viliny> such a timesaver
[12:42] <damnn> stdisease, it does not work either
[12:42] <stdisease> viliny,  I think the source/header debs are borken for nexsja
[12:42] <soreau> nexsja: It should be able to figure out here the headers are on its own I would think
[12:42] <viliny> nexsja, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[12:43] <ManiDhillon> damn use #sudo fdisk -l to check the table first
[12:44] <nexsja> stdisease, so... i need to install something, or just downloading the kernel sources and directing nvidia installer to them will be enough?
[12:44] <DelphiWorld> hi all
[12:44] <stdisease> nexsja, you will need to copy the config file from under /boot to the extracted directory src-linux/.config and then 'make prepare' before you'll be able to use it
[12:44] <DelphiWorld> please how do i chmod a directory with all files/sub directorys?
[12:45] <erUSUL> DelphiWorld: which directory ?
[12:45] <yon> chmod *user* -R *directory*
[12:45] <DelphiWorld> erUSUL: /usr/local/freeswitch
[12:45] <erUSUL> yon: chmod does not accpt user as parameter
[12:45] <stdisease> nexsja, it's best if you figure out a way to install kernel headers/sources from the apt system, though
[12:45] <DelphiWorld> erUSUL: i want to chmod it to 777
[12:46] <yon> my bad chown i was thingking of
[12:46] <yon> :P
[12:46] <pw-toxic_> how can i reaload the fstab ?
[12:46] <erUSUL> DelphiWorld: why you need to do that? it soes not look a safe thing to do. what s the problem exactly ?
[12:46] <yon> chmod 0777 -R ?directory
[12:46] <damnn> Hi I formatted a partition under win7 and I can't read it with ubuntu. Gparted says it's sda7 but if I mount -t ntfs it does not show properly. Any idea?
[12:46] <bcj> Has anyone had experience with a failing hard drive causing shred to fall over and backtrace?
[12:46] <erUSUL> pw-toxic_: sudo mount -o remount -a
[12:46] <viliny> nexsja, easiest would be to use http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ to download a new kernel and the appropriate headers and update-grub to make your grub include the new installed kernel when you boot next time and then go ahead and install the nvidia drivers and just answer no when it complains about gcc compiler version and you're set :)
[12:47] <DelphiWorld> erUSUL, using winSCP... to edit some files, but i need to sudo and i can't sudo from winSCP
[12:47] <ManiDhillon> damn first check the partition table with #sudo fdisk -l
[12:47] <yon> can anyone help me with a problem with samba and the read only command
[12:47] <DelphiWorld> erUSUL: sory my dear there is a lot of trafic here, can we chat privatly? i am blind and i can't see your messages;)
[12:47] <nexsja> viliny, okay, so i need to download headers, image and source, right?
[12:47] <erUSUL> DelphiWorld: use putty to connect via ssh and get a cli
[12:48] <katie11> [::AmSg::] I am now [AFK: asleep ]
[12:48] <erUSUL> DelphiWorld: ok
[12:48] <damnn> DelphiWorld, k it says ID: 7 System: HPFS/NTFS
[12:48] <mylisto2> stdisease: what do want me to do?
[12:48] <mylisto2> sudo aptitude and then what?
[12:48] <DelphiWorld> erUSUL: i can use putty, lol but editores problem like nano, vi, vim and ... accessibility problems
[12:48] <ManiDhillon> damn okay wait
[12:48] <stdisease> mylisto2, then update any packages that need updating
[12:48] <erUSUL> DelphiWorld: well the command is. chmod -R 777 /usr/local/freeswitch
[12:48] <erUSUL> DelphiWorld: still think is not a good idea
[12:49] <damnn> DelphiWorld, I also have the win 7 root which is NTFS  - but I can see that. In fstab is not mentioned but I can see the "OS" disk on the desktop automatically mounted
[12:49] <ManiDhillon> damn Isn't it showing in Nautilas File Manager's side pane?
[12:50] <damnn> ManiDhillon, no
[12:50] <nexsja> viliny, after i've downloaded headers, source and image (dpkg) i need to run them all and then run 'update-grub', did i get it right? :)
[12:50] <mylisto2> frick...
[12:50] <viliny> nexsja, yes pretty much :)
[12:50] <mylisto2> I just upgraded firefox and I lost all of my damn bookmarks :(
[12:50] <ManiDhillon> damn what's the partition number? sda?
[12:51] <damnn> sda7
[12:51] <nexsja> viliny, does it matter in what order i install those packages? :)
[12:51] <mylisto2> stdisease: to update do I just press u?
[12:51] <ManiDhillon> try this #sudo mount /dev/sda7 /mnt
[12:51] <Praliny> hi
[12:51] <ManiDhillon> damn try this #sudo mount /dev/sda7 /mnt
[12:52] <stdisease> mylisto2, go to each available updates and press '+' , after  you've done selecting press 'g' twice and wait for it to download and install then preferably restart the desktop or the whole system and see if crash is still there
[12:52] <damnn> ManiDhillon, nothin happens
[12:52] <ManiDhillon> Check in the mnt direcotry.  IS there anything.
[12:53] <damnn> ManiDhillon, no
[12:53] <ManiDhillon> Hmmm, Is their a previous entry for this drive in fstab?
[12:54] <ManiDhillon> damn Hmmm, Is their a previous entry for this drive in fstab?
[12:54] <lantizia> i386 on amd64  --  there was a THING THING!!! come on people you know what I mean surely!... some extra work was done on dpkg/apt to make it possible - anyone got a clue what I mean?
[12:54] <AceOfSpades> does anyone know how to setup a torrent program to use only a vpn connection?
[12:54] <damnn> ManiDhillon, yeah I setted it now. But when I booted there was nothing
[12:55] <stdisease> mylisto2, there should be a list titled 'Upgradable Packages', open it with the Enter key. if there isn't then your system is up to date.
[12:55] <erUSUL> lantizia: debian and derivatives do not support mixed arch afaik
[12:55] <AceOfSpades> Or is there a way to have my laptop connect only through a vpn?
[12:55] <ManiDhillon> damn that's quite a problem. Mostly when you have a partition, Ubuntu automatically detects it.
[12:55] <stdisease> mylisto2, if you usually install updates another way do that instead, whatever is more comfortable to you.
[12:55] <mylisto2> can I do this threw synpatic package manager?
[12:56]  * sidh 's upgrading to lucid, and just hope he won't get the karmic amd64 bug with virtualbox
[12:56] <lantizia> erUSUL, _YES_ yes they do... with this new thing
[12:56] <erUSUL> lantizia: if you are that sure you do not need our help
[12:56] <lantizia> erUSUL, I just need reminding what it was called!
[12:57] <mylisto2> stdisease: something is seriously up with this machine..
[12:57] <mylisto2> when I try to open synatpic package manager I get "Failed to run /usr/sbin/synaptic as user root.
[12:57] <mylisto2> Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file."
[12:57] <albacker> hello everyone, anybody has had problems with ubuntu and skype (very very very low volume) ???
[12:57] <stdisease> lantizia, well there is a --force-architecture when installing directly from .deb files via dpkg, beyond that idk
[12:57] <damnn> ManiDhillon, I know that. And that's the problem :(
[12:57] <lantizia> stdisease, no not that
[12:58] <ManiDhillon> damn try reformatting it to FAT32, may be that will solve the problem.
[12:58] <knxville> I know this not the proper place, but where do ettercap save the log files?
[12:59] <damnn> ManiDhillon, no I wanted to have files larger than 4gigs
[13:00] <ManiDhillon> damn, Hmmm then why don't you format it in EXT4 format. That will be easy.
[13:01] <matteo1990> Anyone may explain me how is possible that my HD according to fdisk has 255 heads???? XD
[13:02] <stdisease> LOL!!
[13:02] <sidh> watch out about ext4 format, the benefits is only for certain situation (very large files and so on) and the portability among other unix distros is not there
[13:02] <sidh> (no ext4 support for bsd* or (open)solaris) for example
[13:03] <lantizia> erUSUL, stdisease:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchSpec
[13:03] <ManiDhillon> sidh Well then always there is ext3. Well and most distros support ext3 and ext4.
[13:03] <lantizia> FOUND IT! :D
[13:04] <mylisto2> stdisease: mind if pm you?
[13:04] <Guest42633> now upgrade beta test 10.4 from stable version kubuntu?
[13:04] <sidh> ManiDhillon: when i was installing ubuntu minimal cd, i wonder about ext3 or ext4, then i check the improvement for ext4, and for my laptop i 'm still with ext3
[13:04] <stdisease> mylisto2, go ahead
[13:05] <mylisto2> anyone using Firefox 3.0.18 everytime I start it up it checks for  add on updates
[13:05] <ManiDhillon> sidh, I am having Ubuntu 9.10 with EXT4 and Slackware 13 with EXT3 while it also support EXT4. And Having CentOS with EXT3 bcoz they will add support for EXT4 in only next release.
[13:06] <Guest42633> !upgrade
[13:06] <sidh> ManiDhillon: i'm not talking about ext4 support among linux distro (of course above a certain version of kernel, ext4 is supported everywhere) i'm just talking about extX support among other Unix OS
[13:06] <stdisease> mylisto2, if you launched Firefox as sudo you probably need to chown your ~/.mozilla directory to your user name
[13:06] <Guest42633> !net
[13:06] <Guest42633> !network
[13:06] <mylisto2> stdisease: I didn't
[13:06] <ManiDhillon> sidh, I agree with you. Some direct Unix variants don't support EXT system.
[13:07] <sidh> ok distupgrade finished , let's reboot and pray
[13:07] <stdisease> mylisto2, ah just a possibility
[13:07] <uBuSmallFonts> hi there...
[13:08] <sobersabre> hi. is there a way to have flash working on amd64 system inside a 64-bit browser ?
[13:09] <sobersabre> I am using chrome, and I have the packages installed:

[13:09] <erUSUL> sobersabre: ok; works in firefox ?
[13:10] <sobersabre> hmm... lemme check.
[13:10] <erUSUL> sobersabre: i have ubuntu 64 bits and it works for me in firefox and in chromium (daily build ppa)
[13:10] <sobersabre> I am on chromme usually.
[13:10] <ManiDhillon> sidh, well are you using any Solaris derivative?
[13:10] <sobersabre> erUSUL: I think I have the same version of chrome... moment.
[13:11] <AceOfSpades> sobersaber, have you installed ubuntu restricted extras?
[13:12] <sobersabre> ok: ff works.
[13:13] <uBuSmallFonts> i am using mythbuntu in a huge lcd tv...i downloaded maximumtvguide  but can't read anything since fonts are too small...used qtsettings to change font size but got no results...any idea?
[13:13] <sobersabre> ff 3.5.5
[13:13] <AceOfSpades> sobersabre, have you installed ubuntu restricted extras? After I installed everything worked fine
[13:13] <sobersabre> AceOfSpades: I think I have everything, since I don't have problems with listening to mp3s, watching movies with VLC, etc.
[13:14] <erUSUL> sobersabre: as i said it works for chromium too
[13:14] <sobersabre> I have this: Google Chrome 5.0.335.0 dev
[13:15] <sobersabre> erUSUL: can you point me out to the chromium ppa you're using ?
[13:15] <erUSUL> sobersabre: moment
[13:15] <sobersabre> I will upgrade I think. Is there any difference in "about" for you ?
[13:15] <AceOfSpades> sobersabre, I was having a problem with flash, and after I installed ubuntu restricted extras everything worked fin

[13:16] <chandan> hi
[13:16] <NetScr1be> ne1 else got problems w/ false(?) error reports from gnome-disk-utility (Palimpsest)
[13:17] <mylisto2> hey everyone
[13:17] <mylisto2> stdisease: that didn't do the trick...
[13:17] <stdisease> mylisto2, guessing it didn't work since you're back..
[13:17] <mylisto2> something is very very wrong with my system
[13:17] <mylisto2> I just opened my damn irc client, and I realized that something is wrong with it..
[13:17] <mylisto2> it used to show a ton of different networks to join (freenode, etc..etc..)...
[13:17] <mylisto2> they were all wiped out
[13:18] <stdisease> mylisto2, xchat? me too
[13:18] <mylisto2> yeah xchat
[13:18] <NetScr1be> offtopic??
[13:19] <mylisto2> I'm wondering what the hell is going on
[13:20] <mylisto2> even thunderbird seems affected
[13:20] <febin> hi chandran
[13:20] <humbolt> my automatically detected raid device always shows up as md_d0 instead of md0. is that the default now?
[13:20] <rob_p> mylisto2: Have you looked over your system logs for anything abnormal?
[13:20] <mylisto2> rob_p: not sure how to do that
[13:21] <sobersabre> erUSUL: what
[13:21] <rob_p> mylisto2: They are located in /var/log
[13:21] <mylisto2> I wouldn't even know what to look for
[13:21] <rob_p> mylisto2: Give them a gander and see if it yields any clues.
[13:21] <sobersabre> erUSUL: what's the command to fetch a key from the keyserver by it's PUB id ?
[13:21] <nagchampa> is there a reason the ubuntu installer is only showing me my first hdd?
[13:21] <mylisto2> rob_p: what one should I look at?
[13:22] <sobersabre> is there some kind of apt-key adv command ?
[13:22] <kurti_> how can I start my software raid5 array automaticaly on boot? /etd/mdadm/mdadm.conf contains 'DEVICE /dev/hd*[0-9] /dev/sd*[0-9]' and the result of mdadm --detail --scan but it doesn't work
[13:23] <mylisto2> rob_p: can I pm you?
[13:23] <rob_p> mylisto2: The system log would be a good place to start.  You may have to go through many of them to assess what (if anything) happened to cause your issues.
[13:23] <mylisto2> what ones are the system logs?
[13:23] <rob_p> mylisto2: yeah
[13:23] <SwedeMike> kurti_: you need something like this: ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid5 num-devices=6 UUID=<uuid>
[13:24] <SwedeMike> kurti_: you don't need the device-line, you only need that basically

[13:51] <Slart> mefuntee: go ahead
[13:51] <x-calibur> stdisease, i have removed that line, in pastebin but it is there in the config ..., strange...

[13:58] <NimbleRabit> I'm trying to use rsync to automatically download files from a remote server, but it won't seem to go above an average of 80 kb/s or so (connection capable of much more).  Is there a way to fix this, or an alternative to rsync?
[13:58] <hiexpo> morning all
[13:58] <Jasur> hey everybody
[13:58] <olskolirc> I got Paltalk on Intrepid but my buddy list is highlighted in blue
[13:58] <olskolirc> im looking for a richtext.dll to put in that folder

[13:59] <olskolirc> I have sound and video as well and the rooms load fast
[13:59] <hiexpo> NimbleRabit, i could be the server has a restriction on download speed
[14:00] <Mhason1> I have been having trouble with getting the HDTV connected to my Ubuntu Laptop to display at 1920x1024. Anyone have a good link on this type of issue? It looks like the os thinks the tv is a 26 inch monitor of some brand instead of a 42 inch hdtv
[14:00] <martita> hola a todos y todas
[14:02] <Mhason1> NimbleRabit - Can you download at higher speeds from other locations?
[14:02] <NimbleRabit> the place I'm downloading from is far away, if I use a closer server yes
[14:02] <NimbleRabit> but still if I just even use FTP I get double to tripple the rsync speeds
[14:03] <Slart> NimbleRabit: have you checked both the server and the client? they aren't maxed out when it comes to cpu, io ?
[14:04] <sobersabre> guys, is there a ppa based subversion package without the annoying Neon-TLS link ?
[14:04] <morph> anyone here know anything about ASCII armored encrypted text -- launchpad sent me an email to confirm my PPA/PGA and i cant get it decrypted
[14:04] <Slart> NimbleRabit: I don't think rsync comes with a default limit with regards to network transfer speed
[14:04] <sobersabre> I want no GnuTLS, just OpenSSL. is there a package in
[14:04] <sobersabre> PPAs ?
[14:04] <alabd> hello , would anyone guide how to work with http://nohands.sourceforge.net
[14:04] <morph> yea u gotta register with launchpad
[14:04] <morph> to identify urself
[14:04] <NimbleRabit> Slart, alright I'll see if the server is being maxed out on cpu or io
[14:04] <hiexpo> NimbleRabit, i have always found that download speeds are usually on the other end 95 percent of the time if your end is good
[14:04] <morph> and i cant decrypt this ASCII armored encrypted text
[14:05] <sobersabre> alabd: you should ask the devels of the package for help....
[14:05] <sobersabre> they should have a forum, and possibly an IRC channel.
[14:05] <alabd> sobersabre:  no how to install it
[14:05] <alabd> how to use it ?
[14:05] <sobersabre> whatever use, install, etc. - it's all in their responsibility.
[14:05] <morph> whats the terminal command to see my key

[14:14] <Azelphur> It's cool :)
[14:14] <Azelphur> so my phone has 2 telephone numbers, 1 local landline, 1 mobile, anyone can call either, and I didn't have to pay a dime for the SIP account
[14:14] <resno> Azelphur: i might to on my droid, but i am trying to find a way to use this thing i bought
[14:15] <Azelphur> ah
[14:15] <Azelphur> resno: doorstop? :D
[14:15] <resno> Azelphur: basically. but what do you use for sip? fring?
[14:15] <Azelphur> sipdroid
[14:16] <Azelphur> integrates nicely, I just use the normal dialer and put a + at the end if it's a SIP provider
[14:16] <hl_99> hey guys, i got the package freeglut3 installed on my system, this should include OpenGL and freeglut right?
[14:17] <resno> Azelphur: thanks, ill jump on in and take a look
[14:17] <Mhason1> Is there a gui to search for display devices? My HDTV connected via vga is listed as a 26inch monitor with the wrong resolutions
[14:17] <Azelphur> :)
[14:17] <Jasur> hey guys
[14:17] <Azelphur> resno: you'll need to sign up with a sip provider too :)
[14:17] <resno> Azelphur: any suggestions?
[14:18] <Azelphur> resno: not sure of any that give a free US dedicated number, you could try tpad which gives you about 80 different numbers all around the world
[14:18] <soreau> Mhason1: Which graphics card do you have?
[14:19] <Mhason1> ati x1300 mobility
[14:19] <Azelphur> resno: but tpad requires incoming callers to go through a little gateway thing (you dial your local break-in number, then dial the tpad number of the person you want to call)
[14:19] <whoop_> Hey guys, I got a really stupid question...
[14:20] <whoop_> I got a file in /etc/cron.d/, can I just edit that with nano or whatever ? (I want to comment out a line)
[14:20] <Slart> whoop_: sudo nano /your/filename   should work
[14:20] <whoop_> or do I need to edit it with a special crontab thingy?
[14:20] <whoop_> Slart: OK, cheers for that...
[14:20] <Slart> whoop_: I think crontab -e   is the preferred way though
[14:21] <Petit_Oiseau> Allo
[14:21] <Slart> whoop_: but give it a try.. see if it works
[14:21] <Petit_Oiseau> Hello I'm Petit Oiseau
[14:21] <Petit_Oiseau> I'm a
[14:21] <whoop_> Slart: That's what I thought, but I can't find that file in anybody's crontab, but it is running
[14:21] <Petit_Oiseau> Slart: I'm happy
[14:21] <Petit_Oiseau> for you
[14:22] <Dieut> Bonjour Petit_Oiseau
[14:22] <Slart> whoop_: I'm not 100% sure about crontabs inner workings.. it might be that crontab just runs all the scripts in that folder at a specified time
[14:22] <whoop_> I have run crontab -l for each user on the system but it came back nowhere

[14:49] <NimbleRabit> I want to make a symbolic link of a Music directory in my home folder.  How can I get this nice default music folder icon back after I delete and remake the folder
[14:49] <|sanchez|> NimbleRabit
[14:50] <|sanchez|> ln -s <destination to link to> <name of folder>
[14:51] <|sanchez|> so for example if your home is /home/sanchez/ and your music if /path/to/music you could do "ln -s /path/to/music /home/sanchez/Music" which will create a link to your /path/to/music called "Music" inside your /home/sanchez folder
[14:51] <|sanchez|> you can right click on that /home/sanchez/Music and give it a pretty icon if you want afterwards

[14:57] <|sanchez|> no problem
[14:57] <|sanchez|> humbolt http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID
[14:57] <|sanchez|> RAID 1 mirrors the contents of the disks, making a form of 1:1 ratio realtime backup. The contents of each disk in the array are identical to that of every other disk in the array. A RAID 1 array requires a minimum of two drives.
[14:57] <|sanchez|> humbolt you porbably want RAID5 I would imagine
[14:58] <humbolt> The contents of each disk in the array are identical to that of every other disk in the array

[14:59] <aimtrainer_> Hi! I have a strange problem copying (large) files to memory sticks. At the beginning of the file the speed is ok but it constantly drops. The next file starts fast again and gets slower during the copying process. Can anyone help me with that please? I couldn't find anything useful with google..
[14:59] <|sanchez|> humbolt depends on what manages your raid and how its configured
[14:59] <|sanchez|> aimtrainer_ how slow is slow ?
[14:59] <|sanchez|> whats rate
[15:00] <Press> Anybody here with postfix/courier experience on ubuntu?
[15:00] <allengaller> test
[15:01] <oal> What does acpi=off do?
[15:01] <aimtrainer_> |sanchez|, it starts at like 15mb/s if I use a good memstick and drops to under 1mb/s
[15:01] <walla> Hi guys, has anyone got a moment to try and fix my network card?
[15:02] <|sanchez|> aimtrainer_ not sure tbh although i can say mine usually will start out at like 30-40mb/s and if I add another xfer it will drop both xfers down low
[15:02] <|sanchez|> walla seems to be working fine since you are chatting on IRC ;)
[15:02] <|sanchez|> walla whats your problem ?
[15:02] <walla> :)
[15:02] <walla> Well, I have two of them... one for the internet, and the other one for the LAN. That's the one that isn't working
[15:03] <|sanchez|> why 1 for internet 1 for lan ?
[15:03] <|sanchez|> how is your network configured ?
[15:03] <oal> What does noapic do?
[15:03] <aimtrainer_> |sanchez|, I'm just doing one transfer at a time.. and in the beginning the progress bar goes up steadily and later it stops for a couple of seconds then goes on for a short time and stops again...
[15:03] <|sanchez|> aimtrainer_ i really dont know the answer to that one :(
[15:04] <walla> sanchez: in order to have a bridge to the lan from afar.
[15:04] <|sanchez|> oal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Programmable_Interrupt_Controller
[15:04] <danopia> walla, is your ubuntu box acting as a router?
[15:04] <|sanchez|> walla still doesnt seem like its needed that way
[15:04] <aimtrainer_> |sanchez|, thanks anyway :)
[15:04] <walla> danopia well that would be the main point
[15:04] <|sanchez|> walla then you just configure it properly so for example
[15:05] <|sanchez|> lets say eth0 is internet/WAN and eth1 is your LAN
[15:05] <|sanchez|> give eth1 an ip on the LAN and subnet and then let it use IP of your eth0 as gateway i would image
[15:05] <|sanchez|> imagine(
[15:05] <ElNombre> hey guys
[15:06] <walla> currently it's as /etc/network/interfaces has it as auto eth2, iface eth2 inet dhcp
[15:06] <walla> so how do I give it a static IP
[15:07] <ElNombre> I'm having some trouble getting an old game to work on ubuntu, it's Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds, I've got it installed but I'm getting really laggy interface problems and framerate, anything you can recommend off the tops of your heads?
[15:07] <berriop> I had some problems with my microphone and skype, due to pulse audio. I followed this ubuntu guide and replaced pulseaudio for esound. Now everything is ok except I cant share the sound between 2 applications, eg. I cant listen music in rythmbox and use skype. Any idea how to fix it?

[15:09] <B3rz3rk3r> oal, looks like you need to format your HDD, try using a livecd to format it with Gparted, then try install
[15:10] <oal> B3rz3rk3r: But I can't even boot the live cd, that's where the error comes
[15:11] <alvarado> hola
[15:11] <B3rz3rk3r> oal, then id suggest confiming the image/disk isnt corrupt usinga  hash check tool
[15:11] <hiexpo> oal, did you go into bios and change to boot from cd
[15:11] <walla> unop: Now I get:  Ignoring unknown interface eth2=eth2.
[15:12] <oal> hiexpo: I'm using a usb stick, no cd rom in the Eee PCs
[15:12] <unop> walla, post the contents of your interfaces file to a pastebin.
[15:12] <B3rz3rk3r> oal, sounds like your usb wasnt finished correctly then, what tool did you use to do it?
[15:12] <hiexpo> well change to cd on top most usb are reconized as cd roms
[15:13] <exs> hi
[15:13] <walla> unop: just a typo. eht2 vs. eth2
[15:13] <walla> unop: sorry about that
[15:13] <oal> B3rz3rk3r: the usb startup disk creator in Kubuntu 9.10
[15:13] <exs> a question. i want to play text adventures with frotz. but starting a game there are coding failures
[15:13] <exs> how to fix them?
[15:13] <walla> now: ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted, so the firewall needs to be tweaked, and then it's working
[15:14] <ElNombre> I'm having some trouble getting an old game to work on ubuntu, it's Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds, I've got it installed but I'm getting really laggy interface problems and framerate, anything you can recommend off the tops of your heads?
[15:14] <dante> hello everybody
[15:15] <xangua> ElNombre: is that a win app┬┐┬┐
[15:15] <oal> B3rz3rk3r: I'll try another usb stick
[15:15] <dante> anyone knows a nice program to make flyers in ubuntu?
[15:15] <oal> dante: scribus, maybe?
[15:15] <unop> dante, inkscape
[15:15] <B3rz3rk3r> oal, id still suggest confirming that the image is correct firstly, but yes, using another usb was going to be my next suggestion
[15:15] <oskar-> dante:  gimp?
[15:15] <dante> ups
[15:15] <ElNombre> xangua: yeah, I'm using wine to run it
[15:15] <oal> B3rz3rk3r: Ok, thanks
[15:15] <albech_> openvpn connection failed cause there were no valid secrets? what is that supposed to mean? i have added the certificates etc to the configuration. is this some kind of permission check cause certain cert might be world read?
[15:16] <dante> 3 already hehehe thx guys, for flyers with one could be the best?
[15:16] <dante> witch*
[15:16] <hanaita> hola
[15:16] <xangua> !es | hanaita
[15:16] <oskar-> albech_:  is the key password protected, is there an additional authentication with username and password?
[15:17] <dante> i will see all thx a lot
[15:17] <unop> dante,  i use inkscape mostly - as it generates vector graphics which scale well.. but then for some parts gimp is needed.
[15:17] <albech_> oskar-, no additional passwords and no passwords were assigned to the client keys
[15:17] <hanaita> no me da la gana
[15:17] <dante> unop, ok i will install both, thank you ;)
[15:17] <ElNombre> xangua, did you get my last message? (you disconnected just after I sent it)
[15:17] <xangua> then speak english hanaita
[15:18] <xangua> ElNombre: no, my cliwnt disconnected :S
[15:18] <xangua> client*
[15:18] <ElNombre> xangua: alright, I said "yeah it's a windows app, I'm running it with wine"
[15:18] <hiexpo> to make flyers https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2008-February/138482.html
[15:18] <ikonia> hiexpo: we are you posting that ?
[15:19] <xangua> ElNombre: would be more helpful to chec on wine's database or ask in it's channel
[15:19] <xangua> !appdb | ElNombre
[15:19] <hiexpo> ikonia, why am i posting that cause someone asked how to make fliers on ubuntu
[15:19] <walla_> It's still not working :(
[15:19] <ikonia> hiexpo: oh, I didn't see that
[15:19] <hiexpo> ikonia, no prob
[15:20] <Deverish> Hi, I am wondering if KDE/Kubuntu would run well with: 1GB of RAM, 1.73GHz Processor and an ATI Mobility Radeon x1400
[15:20] <ElNombre> xangua: I've already been on the AppDB but there was nothing useful there for the particular app. I'll go to the wine channel, didn't know there was one. Thanks
[15:21] <walla_> unop: I'm getting a ping error to the router (Destination Host Unreachable)
[15:21] <motaka2> can anyone help me updating php5.2 to php 5.3 ?
[15:22] <ikonia> motaka2: an update package is not yet available
[15:22] <oskar-> Deverish:  you should simply try with a live cd, if it would be well enough for you
[15:23] <ottermaton> I've recently gone to 9.10 and after putting my laptop to sleep (suspend) when I wake it up the password screen comes up and for ~10 seconds I can't type in my password. It's rather annoying. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a fix?
[15:23] <motaka2> ikonia: seems no
[15:23] <Deverish> oskar: Thanks, my old computer with 512MB ram and a GeForce 4 MX 440 went absolutley slow
[15:23] <sarmadi> bonjour
[15:25] <aimtrainer_> "Some users added pci=routeirq to the grub boot options and they got the USB 2.0 performance back." Do I have to write it in "/boot/grub/menu.lst"?
[15:25] <oskar-> motaka2:  there only seems to be php 5.2 in the repositories
[15:25] <motaka2> oskar-: yeah but i need 5.3
[15:26] <oskar-> motaka2:  I understand, but then you should ask the one, who provides it...
[15:26] <xxthink> help !!!!
[15:26] <ejeeter> Hello, my name is Ubuntu Linux. My license the GPL was devised by some Communist kike Jew Stallman and my name is Ubuntu because Ubuntu is dumbed down *nix and niggers have low IQs.
[15:26] <xangua> !help | xxthink
[15:26] <Slart> !ops | ejeeter
[15:26] <xxthink> I use ubuntu 9.10 to access a ntfs diskpartion where the windows xp is installed
[15:26] <motaka2> oskar-: thank as i dont have any expirience in ubuntu or linux , i dont know what to do
[15:26] <Azelphur> ejeeter: isn't your name my life is sad so I troll random IRC channels to feel good about myself?
[15:27] <Slart> dont feed it
[15:27] <xxthink> I modified somefiles, for example, a.c, in ubuntu and then I sleep my ubuntu
[15:27] <noaXess_netubu> !kernel
[15:27] <xxthink> Then I re-modified the same files in windows xp
[15:27] <xxthink> Then I wakeup my ubuntu
[15:28] <xxthink> the a.c file now can't be accessed both in ubuntu and windows xp
[15:28] <xxthink> even I use ls command in ubuntu
[15:28] <xxthink> It prompts : i/o error
[15:28] <oskar-> xxthink:  you destroyed your file system
[15:28] <xxthink> oskar-: is there some method than can save my work?
[15:29] <xxthink> what can i do?
[15:29] <giggsey_> I've got a Compaq CQ-50 with an Atheros 5001 wifi chip in it, installed madwifi and wicd, and iwlist scan says: ath0 - No scan results. Any ideas?
[15:29] <Slart> xxthink: if it was me I would do a reboot.. see if it works.. if not try to fsck the drive.. then try again
[15:29] <xxthink> I reboot many times
[15:30] <xxthink> it doesn't work
[15:30] <xxthink> these files can't accessed now
[15:30] <Slart> xxthink: this file.. is it located on the same file system as root?
[15:30] <xxthink> although I can see there names
[15:30] <DarkSpirit> I installed Ubuntu Server. I want to install the clients from the network. I've set everything up. DHCP, TFTP, PXE. However the clients try to download from the internet. How can I get them to install Ubuntu Desktop from ISO on the server?
[15:30] <xxthink> yes
[15:31] <oskar-> xxthink:  you may never mount an already opened filesystem a second time and then additionally return using it in the first system. you should try fsck or the windows thing, or "photorec" or similar software to recover the file
[15:31] <xxthink> photorec?
[15:32] <berriop>  I had some problems with my microphone and skype, due to pulse audio. I followed this ubuntu guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype and replaced pulseaudio for esound. Now everything is ok except I cant share the sound between 2 applications, eg. I cant listen music in rythmbox and use skype at the same time. Any idea how to fix it?
[15:32] <oskar-> xxthink:  yes. it may help. there is also a free tool from convar, and maybe many more
[15:32] <Slart> xxthink: with all kinds of file system/drive failure there's a risc that accessing the system might make things worse.. having said that I would boot from a live cd and fsck the file system.. or perhaps.. if the file is valuable enough try to rescue it using testdisk, photorec or something like that before running the fsck
[15:32] <xxthink> ok
[15:32] <xxthink> I will reboot now and try photorec in windows
[15:33] <Slart> xxthink: photorec is a file recovery program.. it was originally designed to rescue images.. photo recovery.. but it's usable for all kinds of files
[15:33] <kla> xxthink, isnt photorec a unix tool?
[15:33] <oskar-> ;-)
[15:33] <xxthink> ok
[15:33] <kla> xxthink, apt-cache search photorec
[15:33] <xxthink> Slart: must I boot in a live cd?
[15:33] <Walky> Hi guys - I'm having and issue with a Compaq Presario CQ61-406TU. The webcam will only turn on once per reboot. I'm running ubuntu 9.10 x86
[15:34] <Slart> xxthink: since it's your root file system we're talking about that's what I would recommend
[15:35] <RanyAlbeg> Hello , i downloaded the coreutils package in order to see the source code of 'su' command. i saw that it #include <pwd.h> which probably contains a struct that i want to see its contents. i can not find the pwd.h file in that package. can you help me find it?
[15:35] <Guest84159> žŻ┘ć┘äž¦ ┘łž│┘ć┘äž¦* ┘ģž¼ž▒ž» ž¬ž¼ž▒ž©ž®žŻ┘łž©┘ł┘åž¬┘ł
[15:36] <kla> RanyAlbeg, look under /usr/include
[15:36] <Slart> !find pwd.h
[15:37] <xxthink> Slart: My GOD, my disk is 1TB
[15:37] <xxthink> photorec will scan the whold disk?
[15:37] <Slart> xxthink: I think so, yes..
[15:37] <kla> RanyAlbeg, or use something like 'man 3 getpwent'
[15:38] <Slart> xxthink: and yes.. it will take a long time
[15:38] <alzamabar> Hi I changed the crontab file. Do I need to restart the service for the changes to be taken into consideration?
[15:38] <xxthink> my GOD!!!
[15:38] <Slart> alzamabar: if you used crontab -e   to edit it you don't have to
[15:38] <alzamabar> Slart: I used sudo vim
[15:38] <RanyAlbeg> kla: do you know why is it located in a different place. because i can also see that pwd.c is located in coreutils as same as su.c
[15:38] <oskar-> alzamabar:  in general this can depend on the used cron daemon
[15:38] <sidh> WHAAAAAOW since distupgrade from karmic amd64 to lucid amd 64, virtualbox works like a charm
[15:38] <Slart> alzamabar: then I'm not even sure if your changes will stick.. it depends on what file you edited
[15:39] <ardian> How do i change passwd for a user ?
[15:39] <lorenzo__> saaaalve
[15:39] <kla> RanyAlbeg, pwd.h is a system-wide include file, pwd.c which is confusingly named similarly is the source of the utility 'pwd' which is often overridden by the shell's own internal command
[15:39] <ardian> How do i change passwd for a user ?
[15:39] <LjL> ardian: sudo passwd username
[15:39] <RanyAlbeg> ardian: sudo passwd
[15:40] <kla> RanyAlbeg, Ask in #c for more details
[15:40] <RanyAlbeg> ardian: and the user name. sry
[15:40]  * sidh don't even understand why from 2 month of official release of lucid that problem is still not solved on karmic
[15:40] <ardian> kay thanks
[15:40] <alzamabar> Slart: I edited /etc/crontab
[15:40] <ikonia> sidh: why would it ?
[15:40] <ikonia> sidh: lucid is not related to karmic in terms of fix resolution
[15:40] <sidh> ikonia: it is a kernel parameter problem
[15:40] <ikonia> sidh: so ?
[15:40] <RanyAlbeg> kla: so i got confused between pwd as a shortcut for password , and pwd as present working directory. right?
[15:41] <Slart> alzamabar: well.. try restarting the crontab service.. see if it works
[15:41] <kla> RanyAlbeg, yes :)
[15:41] <sidh> releasing a working kernel in karmic repos should solve the problem
[15:41] <|sanchez|> RanyAlbeg  pwd is present working directory
[15:41] <alzamabar> Slart, actually I can see that it picked it up
[15:41] <Slart> alzamabar: ah.. great
[15:41] <IdleOne> sidh: is it a security issue? if not it won't be backported until lucid is officially released as I understand the release process in ubuntu
[15:41] <ikonia> sidh: it may not have been tested/packaged for karmic, lucid's status has nothing to do with karmic
[15:41] <sidh> IdleOne: that problem is specific to karmic amd64 kernel
[15:42] <sidh> only this release
[15:42] <ikonia> sidh: add the parameter manually ?
[15:42] <IdleOne> sidh: my comment still stands
[15:42] <sidh> http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/5501
[15:42] <RanyAlbeg> kla : thank you very much.
[15:43] <sidh> ikonia: i'm not sure ubuntu users are used to manually recompile a kernel
[15:43] <ikonia> sidh: oh, it's not a run time parameter, then fair enough
[15:43] <kla> RanyAlbeg, glad to be of help
[15:43] <ikonia> sidh: however it won't be fixed
[15:43] <ikonia> sidh: update the bug if you want to push it
[15:43] <jose__> does anyone know a nautilus extension used to join different locations in one folder?? can't remember name
[15:43] <sidh> ikonia: i've upgraded to lucid
[15:43] <RanyAlbeg> kla: :)
[15:43] <sidh> that's ok now
[15:44] <ikonia> sidh: update the karmic bug if you feel it needs to be fixed
[15:44] <IdleOne> sidh: Lucid is supported in #ubuntu+1 btw
[15:44] <IdleOne> perhaps someone in there can shed more light
[15:44] <safe> Why can't I make a Guest account? In Users and groups I can't choose "don't ask for password"
[15:44] <sidh> ok
[15:44] <DrSp0ckk> Can I remove everything that comes with Ubuntu in terms of software and start from fresh? Or at least revert the system back to a freshly installed state?
[15:45] <ikonia> DrSp0ckk: no
[15:45] <DrSp0ckk> ikonia: So I would just have to reload the image on the VPS?
[15:45] <ikonia> DrSp0ckk: if you want it back to %100 default, yes
[15:45] <safe> How do I even enable a guest account?
[15:45] <DrSp0ckk> Shame. I wouldn't an encrypted LVM setup.
[15:46] <DrSp0ckk> wouldn't mind*
[15:48] <jose__> does anyone know a nautilus extension used to join different locations in one folder?? can't remember name
[15:49] <jojojo_> Hey everyone, I'm fooling around for hours now: My problem is the following. My newly installed thunderbird doesn't want to open links anymore in firefox
[15:49] <ikonia> jojojo_: what version of thunderbird ?
[15:49] <jojojo_> ikonia: 3.0
[15:50] <ikonia> jojojo_: where did you get 3 from, as it's not in the repo's
[15:50] <motaka2> can anyone help me trouble shooting mu LAMP?
[15:50] <ikonia> motaka2: what's the issue
[15:50] <jojojo_> ikonia: http://ubuntuzilla.sourceforge.net/
[15:50] <jojojo_> ikonia: that seemed me the best repo
[15:50] <ikonia> jojojo_: I suggest you contact them for support - as that's not an ubuntu repo
[15:51] <ikonia> jojojo_: they have a support forum
[15:52] <jojojo_> I'm gonna try that
[15:52] <jojojo_> thanks
[15:52] <uBuSmallFonts> i said better ;)
[15:52] <uBuSmallFonts> i am using mythbuntu in a huge lcd tv...i downloaded maximumtvguide  but can't read anything since fonts are too small...used qtsettings to change font size but got no results...any better idea?
[15:53] <kla> uBuSmallFonts, try installing more ttf fonts, try gtk-chtheme, install 100dpi fonts, try font settings with your desktop environment...
[15:54] <safe> What # has wine?
[15:54] <kla> safe: #winehq
[15:54] <Slart> !wine
[15:54] <|sanchez|> safe what do you want to do with wine ?
[15:55] <safe> |sanchez|: Install something called mono.
[15:55] <|sanchez|> wine is imo useless now adays with virtualization such as virtualbox easier to just run a VM and get support that way
[15:55] <ikonia> safe: mono is not a wine application
[15:55] <ikonia> safe: mono is linux native
[15:55] <|sanchez|> heh even easier
[15:55] <Slart> |sanchez|: wine doesn't need a license
[15:55] <|sanchez|> Slart true but who doesnt have a spare windows XP laying around ?
[15:55] <walla> Guys, still some problems with that network card, if anyone can help...
[15:56] <|sanchez|> buy an old machine most have an XP key on the back :)
[15:56] <safe> ikonia: Trying to run Eufloria (lightweight game), and it says "install the Windows version of Mono to run .NET executables"
[15:56] <kla> |sanchez|, some of us dont have (legit) windows laying around
[15:58] <Yarcanox> hi. sendmail is broken here: "sendmail: fatal: chdir /var/spool/postfix: Permission denied" /var/ and /var/spool are both chmod 777'ed and /var/spool/postfix is owned by root:postfix, whereas the user "mail" is in the postfix group and the folder has 770 rights
[15:58] <Yarcanox> what am I doing wrong?
[15:59] <hal9k20101> good morning
[16:00] <kla> Yarcanox, and sendmail is running as what user:groups
[16:00] <Yarcanox> kla: I assumed it would use "mail" on ubuntu :< I don't know though
[16:00] <Yarcanox> ah wait, it might be php when started from php, right?
[16:00] <Yarcanox> good hint >.>
[16:00] <kla> Yarcanox, possible
[16:01] <Yarcanox> hm
[16:01] <hal9k20101> need some help with screen  setup  my colors look funky after this install
[16:01] <Yarcanox> just made php part of the "postfix" group aswell - still same error :<
[16:01] <Yarcanox> php is running as fcgi, will now php open up sendmail or will the web server do it?
[16:01] <walla> Thanks everyone, it's working now
[16:01] <Fill23> how do i install gnome desktop? (nothing except base system is installed)
[16:02] <kla> Yarcanox, restart the php process for group changes to take effect, of course
[16:03] <unop> Fill23,  install the ubuntu-desktop meta-package
[16:03] <Fill23> unop: 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop meta-package'?
[16:03] <Guest42365> how do i run an executable file in terminal?
[16:03] <unop> Fill23,  almost, take the meta-package thing off the end
[16:03] <kla> Fill23, without 'meta-package'
[16:03] <wasutton0\3_> i have done something incredibly stupid. I have accidentally uninstalled gnome (by way of sudo apt-get purge gvfs) is this recoverable or is my system hosed?
[16:03] <Fill23> ok, will try no, thx
[16:03] <Fill23> now*
[16:04] <benny_> I can't get my computer to recognize my linksys WUSB54GSC adapter even though I just replaced an identical broken one
[16:04] <Yarcanox> what's wrong with "usermod --groups php www-data wwwdata php"?
[16:04] <kla> Fill23, 'meta package' means it doesn't hold real files just points to the stuff that needs to be installed, etc... just FYI
[16:04] <morph> how long does a "make install" usually take"
[16:04] <|sanchez|> Yarcanox is user "php"
[16:04] <morph> i typed make install like 25 minutes ago and it still hasnt put my prompt up yet
[16:04] <morph> and its a small freakin file
[16:04] <unop> morph, depends on the package you are building.  i.e. how long is a peice of string?
[16:04] <kla> morph, depends on the software you're trying to install and if you ran just 'make' before that
[16:04] <|sanchez|> unop bravo on that response
