[16:49] <evila333> How hard isit to set up a dial u connection in ubuntu have been using ubuntu for some time now, but have never had to set up dial up, can someone point me in the right direction
[16:49] <CAPcap> is there any way to emulate windows? if there is would it help me with this: I'd like to watch netflix instant but its only compatible with windows and mac?
[16:49] <abe3k> geirha : no ifconfig sweet
[16:49] <MASARUwota> !dial-up|evila333
[16:49] <onetinsoldier> rodolfinas: hello. i might be able to help you out. i just want to know that i'm being seen/heard by you. i said hello to you a few minutes and got no response from you
[16:49] <llutz> abe3k: but iproute is needed (ip)
[16:49] <MASARUwota> !wine|CAPcap
[16:50] <abe3k> llutz : I'm using current_ip
[16:50] <llutz> abe3k: i meant the program "ip" from iproute-package
[16:50] <Deathspike> Hello; I'm trying to disable file locking on a SAMBA share. I disabled it, but still get "File In Use" when accessing from a windows client. How can I prevent this?
[16:50] <CAPcap> english? Im new to ubuntu
[16:50] <mtaftm> Stupid java shizniz
[16:50] <Talon_> Ubuntu 9.10 Fresh Install: how can i hear my microphone? Im in sound preferences and the input level is bouncing but i hear nothing.
[16:51] <llutz> abe3k:   needed for this -> ... ip -4 -o addr show dev eth0 ...
[16:51] <abe3k> llutz : since it worked on this machine I guess it is installed, so you think I should go for the ifconfig then ?
[16:51] <evila333> that was cool Masaruwota
[16:51] <geirha> abe3k: It comes pre-installed with ubuntu at least. Don't know about other distros.
[16:51] <llutz> abe3k: ifconfig can be asumed to be installed, iproute...  should be, but won't
[16:51] <abe3k> geirha : I'll be using it with ubuntu machines yes
[16:52] <evila333> it is not for me, my bro and his girl are on dial up...trying to talk them into spending the extra 6 bucks fordsl atleast
[16:52] <angel_> Всем привет
[16:52] <angel_> Как оно?
[16:52] <CAPcap>  is there any way to emulate windows? if there is would it help me with this: I'd like to watch netflix instant but its only compatible with windows and mac?... can i get answers explained thoroughly and in plain english im new to ubuntu
[16:52] <nefast> Hello everyone.
[16:52] <abe3k> llutz: I'll make it a requirement to install both packages then :D
[16:53] <Myrtti> !ru | angel_
[16:53] <maco> CAPcap: virtualbox seamless mode?
[16:53] <maco> CAPcap: you can put windows into a virtualbox virtual machine so it runs on top of ubuntu
[16:53] <raul_> CAPcap have you tried "Wine"?
[16:53] <onetinsoldier> CAPcap: WINE..... or purchase VMWare
[16:53] <nefast> Wine perhaps?
[16:53] <CAPcap> whats virtualbox and wine?
[16:53] <nefast> Blast, ninja'd
[16:53] <Slart> CAPcap: there's basically two methods.. wine and a virtual machine
[16:53] <maco> CAPcap: and then the "seamless mode" thing means that instead of windows being inside a box on your screen, you can have individual windows applications visible on your desktop
[16:54] <onetinsoldier> VirtualBox is like VMWare... except Vbox is freeware
[16:54] <abe3k> to the guys who helped me sort this out, a BIG thank you
[16:54] <nefast> Wait, VMware isn't freeware?
[16:54] <abe3k> bye
[16:54] <onetinsoldier> nope
[16:54] <rodolfinas> when i check for instalation something in synaptic manager  it works after reboot ??
[16:54] <nefast> Weird
[16:54] <viliny> Hello! I made a NAT gateway out of my fileserver thats running ubuntu. It has 2 nics and so forth... it drops connection every now and then and i was wondering if anyone here knew of a easy way to make the machine ping something ever 10-60 minutes and based on that restart the network... anyone?
[16:54] <maco> nefast: no, quite a bit of money
[16:54] <maco> CAPcap: ever seen a Mac user using Parallels?
[16:54] <onetinsoldier> Last i knew... VMWare was not free
[16:54] <CAPcap> no i dont use macs often
[16:54] <nefast> Hmm
[16:55] <maco> nefast: i think ESXi and server edition are freeware, but vmware player and vmware workstation are $$$
[16:55] <nefast> I must have confused the two, probably :D
[16:55] <onetinsoldier> hehe
[16:55] <contrast> Greets, everyone...
[16:55] <CAPcap> i just switched from a life of using windows after a virus chewed thru my registry and killed windows forever
[16:55] <onetinsoldier> howdy...
[16:55] <raul_> is there any program like "windows movie maker" in ubuntu? or another program to make movies?
[16:55] <nefast> raul_, there is a spiffy video editor
[16:55] <nefast> Forgot the name, though
[16:55] <drift> how can I turn my wireless off via command line? I used to use "ifconfig wlan0 down" but in 9.10 it immediately reconnects.
[16:55] <MASARUwota> raul_: a simple movie maker? there is kdenlive, but it needs KDE dependencies
[16:56] <evila333> Failure is not an option...It comes bundled with Windows
[16:56] <Slart> raul_: there's that one.. something like openshot movie maker
[16:56] <Deathspike> How can I disable File Lock in SAMBA?
[16:56] <maco> raul_: included by default, not yet. but i think pitivi will be in 10.04. you can get it through synaptic. there's also a fairly popular one called OpenShot but its not in the repositories
[16:56] <MASARUwota> evila333: lol
[16:56] <gladiatr> Enigmator, hrm... just need to figure out what part of what subsystem is responsible for the /tmp cleaning.  I completely understand why it's there... I just need to be able to deactivate it for the account that is being used to start the vms :\
[16:56] <viliny> drift: should that be iwconfig?
[16:56] <contrast> raul_: openshot is considered the go-to option in ubuntu at the moment. google should take you straight to its homepage. :)
[16:56] <Slart> raul_: http://www.openshotvideo.com/   .. not sure if it's available from the repos though
[16:56] <maco> drift: network manager doesnt let you use ifconfig commands. you have to "sudo stop network-manager" first
[16:56] <maco> Slart: it's not
[16:57] <evila333> I have switched from ubuntu to the crunchbang distro I am loving this
[16:57] <maco> Slart: it depends on ffmpeg head, and thats not packaged. openshot's packages install their own version of ffmpeg
[16:57] <raul_> so... the program more recommeded is openshot?
[16:57] <Slart> maco: ah.. thanks
[16:57] <drift> viliny, no I have been using "ifconfig." Should I be using iwconfig?
[16:57] <maco> drift: ifconfig is correct
[16:57] <CAPcap> ok i searched WINE in synaptic, i get about 25 results, which do i want?
[16:57] <maco> drift: its just that network-manager won't let you manually do such things. so you need to stop network manager first
[16:57] <drift> maco, okay I will try your suggestion
[16:58] <llutz> drift: ifconfig won't control wifi-connections, only the ip-part of it
[16:58] <maco> llutz: but iwconfig won't down an interface like ifconfig will
[16:58] <andi__> CAPcap, just do « sudo apt-get install wine »
[16:59] <llutz> maco: nope
[16:59] <CAPcap> thanks andi_
[16:59] <andi__> CAPcap, np ;)
[16:59] <CAPcap> how about for virtualbox or whatever its called?
[16:59] <protojay> CAPcap, its best to try wine first
[17:00] <nefast> Hm, what's a quick way to get to know which cd writer [as in hardwar]I am using? I want to rip stuff with rubyripper, but I don't know which offset to use.
[17:00] <Enigmator> gladiatr there may be a way to do this, Ill take a look
[17:00] <nefast> wine doesn't require its own windows installation.
[17:00] <nefast> Virtualdox does.
[17:00] <CAPcap> thanks protojay
[17:00] <drift> maco, thanks!
[17:00] <nefast> box eveb.
[17:01] <biglinux> gnu's not linux
[17:01] <llutz> maco iwconfig controls layer-1, ifconfig layer-3
[17:02] <maco> llutz: but iwconfig doesnt have like "mode off" or anything like that
[17:03] <contrast> Any overclockers around? I just did my first build last night. Raised the CPU's bus from its default of 333MHz to 366MHz, left the default multiplier alone (x8). CPU clock reads 2.92GHz in BIOS, but upon booting into Linux, it's only clocked at 2.66GHz according to /proc/cpuinfo.
[17:03] <gladiatr> Enigmator, thank you.  I'm continuing to look as well.
[17:03] <syrius> !svideo

[17:03] <syrius> !dvi
[17:04] <contrast> syrius: Whatcha need to know?
[17:04] <erUSUL> contrast: probably cpuinfo only shows nominal speed
[17:04] <syrius> contrast, I can't get my svideo to work in ubuntu
[17:04] <didiermah> !french
[17:04] <syrius> I am using the latest stable release
[17:04] <didiermah> bonjour
[17:05] <biglinux> what jour means ?
[17:05] <nefast> day
[17:05] <Myrtti> biglinux: did you have a Ubuntu support question?
[17:05] <contrast> erUSUL: That's what I thought too, but the speed it reports actually changes when adjusting the CPU scaling policy (2000MHz idle on Dynamic policy, 2667MHz idle on Performance policy).
[17:05] <CAPcap> WINE is installed how do i use it >_<
[17:05] <nefast> bon = good, jour = day
[17:05] <syrius> that should be the next thing ubuntu supports for the ati radeon xpress 200m for svideo
[17:05] <biglinux> journey
[17:05] <llutz> CAPcap: /j #winehq
[17:05] <CAPcap> bonjour monsieur comment allez vous?
[17:05] <syrius> like esperanto nefast
[17:05] <CAPcap> bahahaha
[17:06] <nefast> Huh, what, syrius?
[17:06] <Myrtti> !english | a reminder
[17:06] <syrius> bon' = good in espearnto
[17:06] <biglinux> do you speak it?
[17:06] <Pici> !offtopic
[17:06] <CAPcap> no i kno how to run it... like how do i open the programs i want with it?
[17:06] <syrius> sure

[17:07] <SnoopyDog> SnoopDog
[17:07] <Pici> SnoopyDog: Can we help you?
[17:07] <nefast> CAPcap, is there an installer for that netflix program?
[17:07] <SnoopyDog> umm... no, i'm testing something, sorry
[17:07] <SnoopyDog> cya
[17:08] <Deathspike> I'd like to disable file locking in SAMBA (to allow opening/streaming video while it's being added to the disk), but disabling file locking and opt locking doesnt work. Help!
[17:08] <onetinsoldier> cheers
[17:08] <biglinux> cia
[17:08] <CAPcap> nefast its a plugin for browsers, but i dont know how to start my browser in wine
[17:08] <grayhane> why can I not edit the track numbers of mp2 files in the properties box in Rhythmbox ? I can edit the rest of the ID3 tag ???
[17:08] <llutz> CAPcap: man wine
[17:08] <AkhlD> i need help
[17:08] <CAPcap> llutz what?
[17:08] <nefast> Can you run internet explorer?
[17:08] <llutz> CAPcap: type "man wine" and read
[17:09] <CAPcap> type man wine where?
[17:09] <onetinsoldier> on a command line
[17:09] <onetinsoldier> a terminal
[17:09] <CAPcap> ok thanks
[17:09] <contrast> llutz: Wow, that's mighty helpful. =P
[17:09] <nefast> Oh god, no, I am so wrong.
[17:09] <Pici> CAPcap: I'm under the impression that netflix will not work through wine.  I believe  that using virtualbox is your best shot at getting it to work.
[17:09]  * _Ovidiu is away: Gone away for now
[17:09] <CAPcap> ok... well how do i get virtualbox then?
[17:09] <nefast> A quick question: What's a quick way to get to know which cd writer [as in hardwar]I am using? I want to rip stuff with rubyripper, but I don't know which offset to use.
[17:10] <onetinsoldier> CAPcap: Documents for wine can probably be found in --> /usr/share/doc/wine or something
[17:10] <llutz> contrast: and yes, reading documentation might be helpful for some (if they want to learn how to use something)
[17:11] <aprendendo> #ubuntu-br
[17:11] <Pici> CAPcap: The package name is virtualbox-ose, you can either use software center or type sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose   to install it.  Note: you will need a Windows install CD so that you can install Windows virtually.
[17:11] <onetinsoldier> CAPcap: to install vbox, type in --> sudo apt-get install vboxgtk (i think)
[17:11] <wad> Is it just me, or is rhythmbox almost useless?
[17:11] <blakkheim> wad: it's not just you
[17:11] <Norse_Nemo> wad: I prefer Songbird
[17:11] <nefast> wad, I am still looking for a decent audioplayer :/
[17:11] <blakkheim> nefast: mpd
[17:11] <CAPcap> ok well i dont have windows install stuff so i cant use it anyways
[17:11] <MASARUwota> wad: =) you are correct
[17:11] <erUSUL> nefast: dmesg | egrep -i '(sr|atapi)'
[17:11] <evila333> songbird kicks ass
[17:11] <nefast> foobar refuses to work properly on wine for me.
[17:12] <blakkheim> nefast: foobar works in wine for me
[17:12] <MASARUwota> nefast: mpd for a big list, audacious if you want to quickly listen something
[17:12] <evila333> I like xmms2 also
[17:12] <MASARUwota> blakkheim; foobar in wine? oh whow
[17:12] <nefast> I like to manage playlists.
[17:12] <nefast> And I use last.fm
[17:12] <nefast> :3
[17:12] <wad> I mean, I've got music on my hard drive, in various directories by category. I imported them all into rhythmbox, and now it's a hopeless muddle. I can't even remove directories from it's "library".
[17:12] <CAPcap> can i run my adobe cs3 software through wine?
[17:12] <Pici> !appdb | CAPcap
[17:12] <wad> I'm getting rid of it.
[17:12] <Norse_Nemo> wad: give Songbird a try
[17:13] <onetinsoldier> CAPcap: i doubt it... try out GIMP instead
[17:13] <nefast> Norse_Nemo, does songbird work directly for ubuntu?
[17:13] <nefast> Or do you haveto use wine?
[17:13] <contrast> CAPcap: Feel free to search winehq.org for any Windows apps you want to run in WINE. ;)
[17:13] <grayhane> Wad what do you want to do ? wipe the slate clean and re scan the music files ?
[17:13] <wad> Norse_Nemo, I don't see a package called "songbird".
[17:13] <evila333> will work with ubuntu
[17:13] <Norse_Nemo> capcap: i have run both CS3 and CS4 software on wine, but it can be a chore to get working
[17:13] <CAPcap> thanks contrast :)
[17:13] <wad> grayhane, yes.
[17:13] <contrast> np
[17:13] <fosco__> nefast, songbird has a linux version, packages for ubuntu are available in getdeb.net
[17:13] <nefast> Ow, nice
[17:14] <blakkheim> MASARUwota: i said it works, i didn't say i USE it. i use mpd :)
[17:14] <Norse_Nemo> wad: not on the repos yet, you can DL an Ubuntu deb at their site
[17:14] <protojay> CAPcap: if you wanna find outwhether something works in wine check http://appdb.winehq.org/
[17:14] <CAPcap> OOO NORSE_NEMO thanks
[17:14] <grayhane> Ok well go to the main window, select all the files and right click and select remove, not move to trash.
[17:14] <wad> grayhane, actually, I want to sort through a certain subset of my music (in a certain directory) and delete the albums I don't like so much, so that I can fit the rest on my mp3 player.
[17:14] <MASARUwota> blakkheim: what client do you use? ncmpcpp user here
[17:14] <contrast> Any overclockers around? I just did my first build last night. Raised the CPU's bus from its default of 333MHz to 366MHz (left the default multiplier of 8 alone). CPU clock reads 2.92GHz in BIOS, but upon booting into Linux, it's only clocked at 2.66GHz according to /proc/cpuinfo, perlmon, and StressCPU2 Stress-Test.
[17:14] <blakkheim> MASARUwota: same
[17:14] <wad> grayhane, ah, I'll do that. Then I'll check out songbird.
[17:14] <blakkheim> !ot | contrast
[17:15] <grayhane> wad I have over 7000 files on this box and the prog works great.
[17:15] <contrast> blakkheim: How exactly is that off-topic? -_^
[17:15] <grayhane> wad you can make custom lists within the program and not have to mess with the files themselves
[17:16] <blakkheim> contrast: it is not an ubuntu support question
[17:16] <cybertron_> Hey guys, I'm having a little problem with PureFTPd and user permissions. I've setup pureftp on ubuntu server 9.10 and I have mysql running as the userdb. I can add users fine, all works well, but all files uploaded by any user through the ftp server are access denied to my user even when I am part of the ftpgroup group.
[17:16] <contrast> blakkheim: Really? Because I feel pretty safe in saying whatever it is I need to change to get my CPU/mobo working properly is somewhere in Ubuntu.
[17:17] <underdev> do people recommend using screen, or one of the alternatives like tmux?
[17:17] <blakkheim> underdev: most linux people use screen, most bsd people use tmux. it's just a matter of opinion
[17:17] <llutz> underdev: screen :)
[17:17] <BlessJah> i've got problem with recording on 9.04, (sound card MCP78S [GeForce 8200] High Definition Audio)
[17:17] <cybertron_> underdev, I'm no expert, but I love screen and have great success with it.
[17:17] <MASARUwota> underdev: i think most people like screen
[17:17] <underdev> thanks guys
[17:17] <underdev> screen it is
[17:17] <llutz> !info tmux
[17:18] <cybertron_> So is anyone good with user permissions?
[17:19] <pkkm> How to make fileroller support rar files?
[17:19] <Pici> pkkm: Install the unrar package
[17:19] <MASARUwota> pkkm: install unrar package
[17:19] <MASARUwota> Pici =)
[17:19] <nefast> Ninja'd :D
[17:19] <onetinsoldier> lol
[17:19] <VCoolio> underdev: byobu, easier, lot of screen options included with easy keybindings
[17:20] <pkkm> Pici, MASARUwota: Thanks.
[17:21] <nefast> Hmm, is there a command to list the hardware I'm using?
[17:21] <blakkheim> nefast: lshw
[17:21] <onetinsoldier> nefast: you might need to install it first..
[17:21] <underdev> thanks VCoolio
[17:22] <NSuldaz> Hi using XFCE here, I have a Pictures folder being shared by WIndows 7 Home Group feature and I'm trying to mount it using smbfs. But I'm not too sure what the shared name is. Guessing so far has resulted in mount error(113): No route to host
[17:22] <Pici> onetinsoldier: No, its standard
[17:22] <onetinsoldier> Pici: oh? wow
[17:23] <onetinsoldier> thanks :-)
[17:24] <nefast> blakkheim, yes, thanks! that was the one I was looking for.
[17:24] <cybertron_> Is anyone good with user permissions? I'm having an FTP issue
[17:25] <sipior> cybertron_: best if you just ask your question directly.
[17:25] <cybertron_> sipior:  yeah I did... I'll post it again..
[17:25] <giorgio> c'è qualcuno ita?
[17:25] <cybertron_> Hey guys, I'm having a little problem with PureFTPd and user permissions. I've setup pureftp on ubuntu server 9.10 and I have mysql running as the userdb. I can add users fine, all works well, but all files uploaded by any user through the ftp server are access denied to my user even when I am part of the ftpgroup group.
[17:25] <MASARUwota> !ita|giorgio
[17:26] <MASARUwota> !it|giorgio
[17:26] <giorgio> there is italian people?
[17:26] <ikonia> cybertron_: what is handling your uid and guid ?
[17:26] <ikonia> !it | giorgio
[17:26] <sipior> cybertron_: what are the permissions of the uploaded files?
[17:27] <BluesKaj> NSuldaz, if your file manager has a network option that may be the best way to smb into your windows7 sg=hared folders, but I never had much luck with that on W7 due to the sharing group not being compatible with smb or samba . from my experience.
[17:27] <cybertron_> ikonia: all files uploaded are using ftpuser and ftpgroup as the owner... no matter what the username is of the uploading account.
[17:27] <cybertron_> sipior: the uploaded files look like this: -rw-r--r-- 1 ftpuser ftpgroup 23602562 2010-01-14 02:28 MVI_2627.AVI
[17:28] <cybertron_> sipior & ikonia: I've added myself to the ftpgroup, but that doesnt seem to work... as you can see, the files dont have group write access
[17:28] <sipior> cybertron_: and the permissions of the parent directory holding the uploaded files?
[17:29] <ikonia> cybertron_:  can you show us ls -la of the directory containing the files (use a pastebin please)
[17:29] <ideamonk> anyone who knows finnish?? Google translate isnt helping me find meaning of "ARPASIVULLE"

[17:31] <ojii> hi everyone. is there a tool for linux to render websites to images? (like gnome-web-photo, but I have no clue how to use that to batch-render many websites)

[17:31] <nefast> Blast, lshw does not list my dvd writer :|
[17:31] <SpComb> is it just me or is the newest /etc/gdm/Xsession in ubuntu horribly broken?
[17:31] <yaaar> having a bit of trouble connecting to an ftp server using the gui in Jaunty. i can connect fine from the command line, but when i put the same information in the 'connect to server' dialogue it mounts it, but shows that there's nothing there.
[17:31] <SpComb> it executes the /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ scripts with missing vars/functions, causing them to misbehave
[17:31] <ikonia> cybertron_: are you tring to put or get a file ?
[17:32] <cybertron_> ikonia: I'm trying to allow full access to josh over samba and ssh
[17:32] <SpComb> likewise, since the /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ scripts end with an 'exec', the rest of the code in /etc/gdm/Xsession never gets run...
[17:32] <ikonia> cybertron_: then why are you messing around with ftp ?
[17:32] <onetinsoldier> nefast: what kind of port is your dvd writer on?
[17:32] <cybertron_> ikonia: the files are being uploaded via ftp
[17:32] <ikonia> cybertron_: ok - so that's not going to happen as the ftpgroup doesn't have write permissions
[17:33] <nefast> onetinsoldier, that's a good question.
[17:33] <nefast> I have not s ingle clue how to figure that out.
[17:33] <nefast> Standard dell laptop dvd writer.
[17:33] <onetinsoldier> nefast: do you know how to go into your bios?
[17:33] <cybertron_> ikonia: how can I make all future uploaded files have group write access? I'm using PureFTPd, is there an option, or do I need to change the umask(I know nothing about umask, a friend just mentioned it)
[17:33] <llutz> nefast: most likely /dev/sr0
[17:34] <ikonia> cybertron_: give the group ftpusers write access and make sure the directory has group ownership of ftpgroup
[17:34] <fuzzybunny> hey guys I am just wondering how to disable that annoying drum sound that plays on the login screen
[17:34] <nefast> fuzzybunny, system -> preferences -> sound?
[17:35] <nefast> And then sound theme?
[17:35] <fosco__> fuzzybunny, system -> preferences -> startup applications
[17:35] <llutz> fuzzybunny: rm /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/system-ready.ogg
[17:35] <fuzzybunny> nefast: it is already set to no sounds
[17:35] <cybertron_> ikonia: so I do that using chmod? the group name is ftpgroup... the user is ftpuser. I need to make the ftp group the owner of that ftp folder then and all sub folder will be inhereted?
[17:35] <fuzzybunny> fosco__: there is nothing in there related to it
[17:35] <ikonia> cybertron_: chdmo 775
[17:36] <john__> My laptop hard disk started to fail.. I used encrypted LVM defaults with Ubuntu 9.10. I just bought a new laptop. I have the old bad hard disk plugged into my new laptop via usb sata adapter. I made an unencrypted map to it by doing 'cryptseutp create bad /dev/sdb1', so the map exists at: /dev/mapper/bad; When I do 'e2fsck /dev/mapper/bad' it gives me the super block invalid message. What else can I try to get this mounted, or do an fsck?
[17:36] <ikonia> cybertron_: chmod 775
[17:36] <john__> "and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck -b 8193 <device>" .. I get this message at the end. I run 'sudo e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/mapper/bad', but it gives me back the same message.
[17:36] <fosco__> fuzzybunny, i have a "gnome-login-sound" entry there
[17:36] <L3dPlatedLinux> was wondering in there a quick gui for mounting nfs
[17:36] <Slart> fuzzybunny: I think the startup sound is separate from the user preferences.. (it still doesn't know which user is going to login)... perhaps something in the login window settings.. I'm not sure
[17:37] <Pereirao> fuzzbunny: System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications
[17:37] <coolion64> Hi, i'm trying to connect to my LAN for internet access on latest ubuntu server. The installer never finds dhcp, even though the router serves dhcp. Won't work with a static ip. Any help please?
[17:37] <fuzzybunny> hmmm maybe it is the visual assistance
[17:37] <fuzzybunny> thing
[17:37] <Pereirao> fuzzbunny: then disable "Gnome Login Sound"
[17:37] <llutz> fuzzybunny: http://www.ubuntumini.com/2009/09/hack-karmics-gdm-login-screen.html
[17:37] <fuzzybunny> Pereirao: that doesn't exist
[17:38] <llutz> fuzzybunny: rm /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/system-ready.ogg
[17:38] <Slart> fuzzybunny: there's an old thread.. perhaps it's moved somewhere else in karmic http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=468927
[17:38] <nefast> Ah, onetinsoldier, when starting up [re:bios] ?
[17:39] <nefast> I just want to get to know which kind of cddrive it is so I can give Rubyripper the correct offset to rip CD's.
[17:39] <Slart> fuzzybunny: this looks more up to date http://nuclear-imaging.info/site_content/2009/11/03/remove-karmic-ubuntu-910-login-screen-sound/
[17:40] <llutz> nefast: grep -i dvd /var/log/dmesg
[17:40] <cybertron_> ikonia: so who should be the owner of /mnt/raid/_ftp?
[17:41] <nefast> llutz, Yes! That's it. <3
[17:41] <onetinsoldier> nefast: hi. yes. when computer fist fires up is where you can press a key to enter your bios
[17:41] <VCoolio> fuzzybunny: sudo nano /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow/libcanberra-ready-sound.desktop
[17:41] <nefast> onetinsoldier, I think that the command that llutz gave me solved it.
[17:41] <VCoolio> fuzzybunny: change the line that executes the sound to something you like, or leave empty
[17:41] <queso> I installed some updates yesterday and today (Jaunty) and now some wierd things are happening. First, my laptop brightness would start dimming by itself (never done this before); I figured out how to fix this. Next, characters in my xterm window are randomly not displaying, and when I wiggle the window the characters show up. Also, colors in vim are not working in screen anymore . . I can't work like this :/ help?
[17:41] <onetinsoldier> nefast: cool :-)
[17:42] <nefast> Perfect!
[17:42] <nefast> Let the ripping commence!
[17:42] <manuel_> hay alguien?
[17:42] <Slart> queso: my computer did that a few days ago.. a reboot fixed it for me though.. haven't seen it since

[17:43] <Diverdude> I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T61p, and I would like to be able disable the Touchpad completely until i want to enable it again(which is probably never). I have installed the tool "TrackPointSettings" which works fine. I can disable the touchpad = nice. But as soon i use ALT+TAB or <SpecialKey>+TAB to cycle windows or <SpecialKey>+D to minimize/maximize all windows, the touchpad is enabled again. How can I avoid that, and keep it disabled
[17:43] <Diverdude> , even after reboot?
[17:43] <coolion64> is there a dedicated channel for ubuntu server?
[17:43] <fuzzybunny> hmmm ok guys ill try some of that stuff
[17:43] <Slart> coolion64: tried #ubuntu-server?
[17:43] <queso> Slart: Are you talking about the character display problem and colors problem in xterm?
[17:44] <coolion64> thanks

[17:46] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: i can try and help. i'm somewhat rusty though, so you'd have to be patient with me ;)
[17:46] <coolion64> ahh that's why the ?
[17:47] <IdleOne> coolion64: yup
[17:47] <jon5000> onetinsoldier,  thanks.  i get a lot of failures among the 84 files it wants to download
[17:48] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: roger. it's unable to actually download the files?
[17:48] <Deathspike> I'd like to disable file locking in SAMBA (to allow opening/streaming video while it's being added to the disk), but disabling file locking and opt locking doesnt work. Help!
[17:48] <eliot_> hi anyone know why my sony e series isnt being recognized by banshee or rythmbox?
[17:49] <jon5000> onetinsoldier, yes. some download and others dont.  when its done the following error is displayed:  W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 5A9BF3BB4E5E17B5
[17:49] <jon5000> W: GPG error: http://ftp.de.debian.org sid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 9AA38DCD55BE302B
[17:50] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: hmmm
[17:50] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: i'm not very familiar with GPG key problems really
[17:51] <genii> jon5000: You're using some Debian Sid repository? Are you on Ubuntu?
[17:51] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: but... at first glance, it looks like you are trying to get 'Debian Sid'.. not Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic
[17:51] <Paddy_NI> How would I download and install these packages on an offline ubuntu box without using keryx https://launchpad.net/~liamgh/+archive/ppa?
[17:52] <Slart> Paddy_NI: synaptic has a "create download script"-feature... or apt-on-cd
[17:52] <Slart> !aptoncd | Paddy_NI
[17:53] <Paddy_NI> Slart, I just need two tiny packages.. aint there a simpler way without having to burn cds?
[17:53] <Slart> Paddy_NI: yes.. the synaptic way
[17:54] <hdon> how do i enable ALT+SHIFT+TAB?
[17:54] <cybertron_> Hey guys, I got help with this earlier, but its still not working... I'm having a permissions problem. FTP users are uploading files, and I need to have access to these files over samba (read and write)... here are the folders..http://pastebin.com/m22d6d7c1 the ftp handler is ftpuser:ftpgroup, my user is josh... josh is in ftpgroup, but it's still not working.
[17:54] <Slart> Paddy_NI: you could just download the packages as well.. put them on a usb stick
[17:54] <Slart> Paddy_NI: basically that's what the download script does
[17:54] <fuzzybunny> hey guys I think that finally worked and that login sound is gone
[17:54] <Paddy_NI> Slart, ah precisely what I want.. nice one mate
[17:54] <jerbroo>  I'm looking for an ettercap channel.   Anyone know what it is?   #ettercap doesn't seems to be it
[17:55] <Slart> !offline | Paddy_NI
[17:55] <undecim> cybertron_: can you currently read the files via samba?
[17:55] <Paddy_NI> Slart, the file download script is pointless
[17:55] <Paddy_NI> the other machine is offline
[17:55] <selen_z> good.
[17:56] <Diverdude> where is xorg.conf located?
[17:56] <cybertron_> undecim: yes, I can read them, but cannot create files nor delete files
[17:56] <blakkheim> Diverdude: /etc/X11
[17:56] <TuxOtaku> anyone here have any experience with JACK?
[17:56] <Slart> Paddy_NI: I don't think you've thought this through... you generate the script on the offline machine... run it on the online machine.. move the storage to the offline machine again
[17:56] <undecim> cybertron_: you need to set goup permissions on the files, and probably the directory as well.
[17:56] <VCoolio> Slart: the alturl.com link doesn't support karmic it seems
[17:57] <Paddy_NI> Slart, all that to get two files installed on an offline computer O_O
[17:57] <cybertron_> undecim: I have updated the pastebin... I set chmod 775 on the folders...
[17:57] <cybertron_> undecim: http://pastebin.com/m3a615447
[17:57] <Slart> Paddy_NI: or just download the two files yourself.. put them on an usb stick.. insert usb stick in offline computer.. double click files.. (as I said a while before)
[17:57] <raul_> I've installed emesene, but it showed to me "You don't have libmimic, so you can't send or receive webcam".... what should I do?
[17:57] <Paddy_NI> Slart, Is there no simple way of downloading the debs?
[17:57] <VCoolio> Paddy_NI: just browse the repo on the link you gave us yourself and download the proper .deb
[17:57] <Slart> Paddy_NI: put the repository url into a browser
[17:58] <TuxOtaku> raul_, apt-cache search libmimic
[17:58] <jon5000> genii, onetinsoldier I am using ubuntu 9.10.  i have no idea why it would appear like debian.  i am a novice
[17:59] <onetinsoldier> cybertron_: have you read the Docs for PureFTP? there's probably a config file that controls a lot of things regarding the way ftp daemon allows permissions
[17:59] <undecim> cybertron_: Do you have samba set up to allow write access for you?
[17:59] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: you know how to use pastebin?
[17:59] <davertron> hi guys, if  i wanted to try something like stumpwm (http://www.nongnu.org/stumpwm/manual/stumpwm.html#Top) or ratpoison (http://www.nongnu.org/ratpoison/), can I do that on another console while keeping gdm running?
[17:59] <jon5000> onetinsoldier, yes
[18:00] <cybertron_> onetinsoldier: There are a ton of options, so I wasnt sure if someone would know which one did what I need, but thats my next step
[18:00] <Paddy_NI> Slart, ah nice one.. would be nice if synaptic allowed you to just download files too
[18:00] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: i recommend you upload your /etc/apt/sources.list file to pastebin and give us the url
[18:00] <cybertron_> undecim: yeah I do, samba works fine. I cant make a folder in ssh either.
[18:00] <Diverdude> what is the shortcut to reboot?
[18:00] <Paddy_NI> Slart, cheers got them now though :)
[18:00] <Slart> Diverdude: you mean REISUB?
[18:00] <Slart> Paddy_NI: you're welcome
[18:00] <TuxOtaku> Diverdude, dd if=/dev/null of=/dev/sda
[18:00] <TuxOtaku> :)
[18:01] <onetinsoldier> cybertron_: roger. the issue is probably something in that config file
[18:01] <Diverdude> Slart, well just to restart my system
[18:01] <Slart> !danger
[18:01] <Slart> !ops | TuxOtaku
[18:01] <TuxOtaku> *sigh*
[18:01] <cybertron_> onetinsoldier: ah, I found "virtual users" in the docs, that is what I'm using so hopefully I will find some useful info in there.
[18:01] <Myrtti> TuxOtaku: mind joining #ubuntu-ops?
[18:02] <onetinsoldier> cybertron_: roger, good luck! :-)
[18:02] <TuxOtaku> Myrtti, nevermind. I don't know why I bother coming here for help anyway....nothing but noobs in here anymore.
[18:02] <medius_> Hi, I'm having a problem with ecryptfs and private home directories.  Is this the right channel?
[18:02] <CAPcap> Can someone recommend sound software? Like Acid, Soundbooth, etc.
[18:03] <jon5000> onetinsoldier, http://pastebin.com/m262ffc0f
[18:03] <mezquitale>  CAPcap ask in #ubuntustudio if someone is there they'll help you
[18:03] <BeepBeep> Hw can I add a "Move To" option in Thunar (Xbuntu)?
[18:03] <undecim> Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't that command the TuxOtaku mentioned actually be safe? /dev/null doesn't contain anything, and so dd would stop after 0 bytes... it's /dev/zero that would wipe a hard drive.
[18:03] <CAPcap> mezquitale Thanks I'll check it out :)
[18:03] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: ok, i'll have a look-see
[18:03] <syrius> ESPERANTO UBUNTU KANALO /join #ubuntu-eo
[18:03] <davertron> is it possible to start another xserver and instance of gdm alongside my current version? i.e. on another console?
[18:04] <obiwan_> lol , esperanto ubuntu haha xP
[18:04] <MenZa> davertron: I can only give you the answer that, yes, you can run multiple X servers similtaneously, but I have no clue how.
[18:04] <Slart> davertron: I think so, yes.. I'm not sure about the exact syntax but I've seen it done
[18:04] <obiwan_> i must check that out hahah
[18:04] <toro> is lynx alpha 2 ready for download yet?
[18:04] <MenZa> toro: No.
[18:04] <davertron> i want to try running something like ratpoison or stumpwm
[18:04] <Slart> !lucid | toro
[18:04] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: ok, i don't see anything that looks wrong there. at least not at first glance. try running some commands...
[18:04] <davertron> but it would be cool if i could just do it in a separate console
[18:05] <davertron> with it's own xserver/gdm
[18:05] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: sudo apt-get update
[18:05] <L3dPlatedLinux> Ok I made a script to mount a nfs drive and made a panelbar icon  for cliak and mount ease and was wondering if there is a way to add the sudo password to it so I dont have to type it eveytime?
[18:05] <OerHeks> undecim you are right, it was a bad joke @ reboot question
[18:05] <sandking> hi
[18:05] <davertron> i'm also just sort of curious about how to run another xserver/gdm in general...
[18:05] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: then, sudo apt-get -f install
[18:05] <sandking> anyone use ubuntu on macbook?
[18:05] <MenZa> !anyone | sandking
[18:05] <XBlackChaosX> hey. today i have a problems. im sick of having to input my password everytime i want to change a setting or install software so how do i take that off?
[18:06] <jon5000> onetinsoldier, in process...
[18:06] <CAPcap> no-one talking at #ubuntustudio so I ask again. Recommended sound/audio editing/recording/mixing software?
[18:06] <Slart> davertron: I couldn't really find anything right now when I googled.
[18:06] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: never mind.. i  think i see the problem in the souces.list file after i took a harder look
[18:06] <scottmaccal> CAPcap: Google is your friend.
[18:06] <davertron> Slart: this might be what i'm looking for http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=213756
[18:06] <medius_> I add a new user using adduser --encrypt-home <newusername>, When I login as the new user everything works correctly and the private home is mounted automatically.  But when that user logs out I get "fopen: Permission denied" and the private home remains mounted.
[18:06] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: ctrl-c it
[18:07] <MenZa> CAPcap: Try "sound editing" or "audio editing" in the Software Centre.
[18:07] <davertron> :)
[18:07] <CAPcap> Thanks MenZa I'll start there
[18:07] <scottmaccal> CAPcap: Or, you could download Ubuntu Studio run it live and see what software is installed.
[18:07] <MenZa> CAPcap: Audacity is good for recording, I know that much. Jokosher is supposedly good for mixing.
[18:07] <CAPcap> how do i do that?
[18:07] <jon5000> ctrl c what.  the entire text of sources.list?  then what?
[18:07] <Slart> davertron: ah.. that looks like it.. yes... a bit old but it might still work
[18:07] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: what happened with it?
[18:07] <Pici> CAPcap: Take a look at the ubuntustudio-audio heading here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/PackageList
[18:07] <CAPcap> thanks again MenZa
[18:08] <Slart> davertron: you could also try it in a vm
[18:08] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: has it bombed out?
[18:08] <davertron> Slart: I'll give it a shot and see what happens
[18:08] <jon5000> onetinsoldier, what do you mean ctrl-c it?
[18:08] <davertron> Slart: i don't know much about X, but it seems really cool to be able to have multiple sessions open
[18:08] <viliny> Hello! I made a NAT gateway out of my fileserver thats running ubuntu. It has 2 nics and so forth... it drops connection every now and then and i was wondering if anyone here knew of a easy way to make the machine ping something ever 10-60 minutes and based on that restart the network... anyone?
[18:09] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: when a process is running on the command line, you can stop it with a ctrl-c
[18:09] <VCoolio> who asked about move to in thunar?
[18:09] <Slart> davertron: indeed
[18:09] <scottmaccal> CAPcap: you could also see what packages are installed by default in Ubuntu Studio. Google: ubuntu studio package list.
[18:09] <chaosrl> has anyone else been getting the "AIM network error" error when trying to connect using Empathy? or does anyone know how to fix it?
[18:09] <jon5000> onetinsoldier, i was doing that in terminal
[18:09] <VCoolio> BeepBeep: mv %F $(zenity --file-selection --directory)
[18:09] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: roger. so on that terminal you would press, ctrl+c
[18:10] <jon5000> no issue.  it stopped after receiving roughly the same errors as in the gui version.  back to prompt
[18:10] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: anyway, what happened with the process?
[18:10] <_raven_> hello - i need the smallest linux iso file that contains partimage... whichone?
[18:11] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: anyway, what happened with the process, the apt-get -f install? what happened?
[18:11] <wildc4rd> evening all
[18:11] <Slart> _raven_: live cd?
[18:11] <onetinsoldier> nvm, i see your response
[18:11] <XBlackChaosX> anybody knows how i can stop the system from asking me for my password everytime i wanna edit a setting or install a software?
[18:11] <_dreamy> can anyone help me to kill a process, i know the command "kill" on the terminal .. but i dont know how to find the proccess
[18:11] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: ok, ready? you need to edit that file... /etc/apt/sources.list
[18:11] <XBlackChaosX> it gets annoying after a while
[18:12] <undecim> _raven_: It would be easy to create an iso that has partimage from a disto like DSL, or Taz
[18:12] <Slart> XBlackChaosX: you can add a switch in your sudousers file.. you'll still have to write sudo but it wont ask you for your password
[18:12] <_raven_> Slart,  yes but i have to download everything with gprs and it's so sloooooooowwww
[18:12] <medius_> \nick medius
[18:12] <_dreamy> my firefox needs to be killed before it can restart..
[18:12] <_dreamy> anyone helping ?
[18:12] <RediXe> Does the "Hardware Drivers" show installable drivers even if you aren't in the sudo group? There used to be a restricted ati driver (about a year ago) and I looked today on a computer with a user account that doesn't have a sudo access and it's not even showing up in the list.
[18:12] <jon5000> onetinsoldier, after the sudo apt-get update and all the errors, sudo apt-get -f install reported done and done.  zero downloaded out of 1083
[18:12] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: you need to remove that last line --> deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian sid main
[18:12] <XBlackChaosX> Slart, im new at linux so how do i go by doing that
[18:12] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: you need to edit the file... /etc/apt/sources.list
[18:12] <VCoolio> _dreamy: pkill processname  or killall processname, or use htop
[18:12] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: you need to remove that last line --> deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian sid main
[18:12] <jon5000> thats it?  just that one line deletion?
[18:13] <onetinsoldier> yes
[18:13] <hero1900> after i did upgrade alsa from the ubuntu forum i cant record using sound recorder give me (GStreamer error: state change failed and some element failed to post a proper error message with the reason for the failure.) what is the problem???
[18:13] <_dreamy> VCoolio: whould it be like.. : pkill firefox ?
[18:13] <Slart> XBlackChaosX: hang on.. let me see if I can find a nice tutorial for you
[18:13] <_dreamy> VCoolio: in my situation is firefox that need to be killed
[18:13] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: then run the same command again.... sudo apt-get update
[18:13] <XBlackChaosX> Slart, btw i dont mean at login i just mean like when im installing updates or installing software via software center etc
[18:13] <Slart> XBlackChaosX: yes
[18:13] <VCoolio> _dreamy: yes, give it a shot, or  xkill  and click the window
[18:13] <XBlackChaosX> Slart, k
[18:14] <undecim> _raven_: How soon do you need it?
[18:14] <_dreamy> VCoolio:  where do i look for "xkill" in what menu ?
[18:14] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: then run.... sudo apt-get upgrade
[18:14] <_raven_> undecim, asap
[18:14] <VCoolio> _dreamy: it's a command; make a keybinding for it, it's very useful
[18:15] <Threetimes> Hi, I can't add https://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?products_id=125 to my cart?!
[18:15] <jon5000> onetinsoldier, seems to be working!
[18:15] <VCoolio> _dreamy: or add the force quit applet to your panel; click the icon, then the window to kill
[18:15] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: cool, cheers and enjoy :-)
[18:15] <undecim> _raven_: idk if slitaz or dsl have partimage, but If they don't, I should be able to make an iso that does.
[18:15] <_dreamy> VCoolio: had success , ty alot :)
[18:15] <_dreamy> VCoolio:  just had to type: pkill firefox
[18:16] <jon5000> onetinsoldier, thx!
[18:16] <onetinsoldier> jon5000: you're welcome
[18:16] <Slart> XBlackChaosX: I'm going to paste it into a private message.. just a sec
[18:16] <_raven_> undecim, i do not know at the moment but please wait a second
[18:17] <undecim> _raven_: slitaz has a partimage package... You could either download it from the livecd environment, or give me a moment to stick it on the slitaz ISO.
[18:17] <airstrike> * _raven_ connects to the matrix *

[18:20] <wig0_> does anyone knows ffffound here ?
[18:20] <Pici> wig0_: What about it?
[18:21] <Threetimes> Hi, I can't add https://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?products_id=125 to my cart?!
[18:21] <wig0_> a website
[18:21] <wig0_> Pici,
[18:21] <wig0_> very closed
[18:22] <wig0_> i 'm searching for invit
[18:22] <ver> ĉu vi scias kaj parolas esperanton?
[18:22] <Pici> wig0_: The is the Ubuntu support channel, we cannot help you with this, sorry.
[18:23] <Pici> wig0_: #ubuntu-offtopic may be able to help, but I doubt it.
[18:23] <wig0_> oki i only thought that your strong spirit could help me
[18:24] <wig0_> in these time when nobody seems havving a problem
[18:24] <wig0_> (scuse my bad english)
[18:24] <gizmobay> I'm trying to resize my partition with gparted. The boot is ext3 and the extended is xfs
[18:24] <BeepBeep> Thanks
[18:24] <gizmobay> I can't resize the xfs
[18:25] <selen_z> beep beep
[18:25] <undecim> gizmobay: I've always had problems resizing xfs with gparted as well.
[18:25] <selen_z> yes.me too.
[18:25] <blakkheim> gizmobay: xfs partitions cannot be shrunk
[18:25] <ver> gizmobay, i'd suggest asking in #xfs, but they'd just say "SGI ROOOLZ" and kick you..
[18:25] <gizmobay> hmm, how can I do this?
[18:25] <fosco__> gizmobay, not sure if gparted supports xfs, make sure you have xfs-progs package installed
[18:25] <undecim> gizmobay: to this day, the only way I've found is to backup the files somewhere else, remove the xfs, resize the partitions, then put the files back.
[18:26] <blakkheim> gizmobay: you can't, i am trying xfs partitions cannot be shrunk
[18:26] <blakkheim> i am saying*
[18:26] <ver> it's funny, because XFS partitions are easy to resize, technically
[18:26] <gizmobay> drat
[18:26] <undecim> gizmobay: just back sure that wherever you back them up to save permissions
[18:26] <blakkheim> gizmobay: why did you choose xfs if you don't know about it?
[18:26] <davertron> Slart: that tutorial is a little old and it doesn't work exactly the way he describes it there, but i got enough to get stumpwm running in another xserver so
[18:26] <davertron> Slart: thanks!
[18:27] <Slart> davertron: nice.. you're welcome
[18:27] <gizmobay> I think it did it for me when I installed
[18:28] <gerzel> I got vmware desktop installed on my computer how do I access it?
[18:28] <gerzel> Anyone know?  I think it is a url through a webbrowser but dunno the url
[18:28] <szpuni> rtfm
[18:29] <onetinsoldier> gerzel: it didn't make a desktop icon or a shortcut in your gnome menu?
[18:29] <Slart> !rtfm | szpuni
[18:30] <szpuni> if you would read manual for installation he wouldn`t ask the question
[18:30] <onetinsoldier> true
[18:31] <Diverdude> what is lucid in ubuntu?
[18:31] <Pici> !lucid | Diverdude
[18:31] <Slart> szpuni: it doesn't matter.. just don't do that
[18:31] <gerzel> onetinsoldier: No don't see one
[18:31] <gerzel> I think I may have to re-install..
[18:32] <Diverdude> !jaunty | Diverdude
[18:32] <onetinsoldier> gerzel: i'll bet it's a bin file you run. try the following
[18:32] <nightfrog> you should read about what you are installing and how to use it before you install it anyway. shouldnt be a bad thing to tell someone rtfm
[18:32] <onetinsoldier> gerzel: sudo updatedb && locate vmware | grep bin
[18:33] <Mrokii> hello. I have keyboard-problems. I use an Apple Extended Keyboard II (via adaptor), changed the Alt-Key for the third-keys' functions and made the Apple-key acting like the alt-keys. But switching to to virtual consoles (via alt+ctrl+Fn) doesn't work...
[18:33] <gerzel> onetinsoldier: Ok got lots of hits.
[18:33] <onetinsoldier> gerzel: roger
[18:34] <Mrokii> instead, when I hit alt (actually, apple+ctrl+f1) and have a terminal opened, it prints out ";7P"
[18:34] <onetinsoldier> gerzel: if too many hits... try piping the output into 'less'
[18:34] <karma_police> !ping
[18:34] <Osvaldo> oi
[18:34] <Synthercat> Hi there
[18:35] <onetinsoldier> howdy
[18:35] <gerzel> onetinsoldier; What Am I looking for?
[18:36] <gerzel> I haven't used it in a while last time I just pointed my browser at a url as I recall
[18:36] <onetinsoldier> gerzel: well, i'm surprised you'd get a lot of hits if it piped it through the 'grep bin'.. but you looking for something like /usr/bin/vmware
[18:36] <XBlackChaosX> thx for your help Slart  apprecite it bro :)
[18:37] <Diverdude> Ok, so I found this package: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/r-base which i would like to install using the packet manager. How do I proceed?
[18:37] <Slart> XBlackChaosX: you're welcome
[18:37] <onetinsoldier> gerzel: or it might be /usr/local/bin/vamware ....something like that anyway
[18:37] <obiwan_> hi, please is there any pill which lets me read man bash, man iptables and man rsync without dying of boredom in the try? currently i can read up to 200 lines of each man, then i need first aids to keep living
[18:37] <LjL> Diverdude: type "sudo apt-get install r-base" in a terminal
[18:38] <gerzel> onetinsoldier: Installed but not configured.  Running re-configure it suggests
[18:38] <LjL> obiwan_: i don't usually read whole manpage, but use "/" to search for keywords relating to the options i need.
[18:38] <LjL> then some manpages are just bad.
[18:38] <ver> obiwan_, have you tried wiggling the cord?
[18:38] <Myrtti> obiwan_: pro tip: skip to the examples
[18:38] <onetinsoldier> gerzel: hmmmm
[18:38] <Krepta> hello
[18:39] <gerzel> Like I said old install that probably isn't current with my system  I've done a dist upgrade between now and when I last ran it
[18:39] <onetinsoldier> gerzel: i can't help any further. so, good luck :-)
[18:39] <ver> obiwan_, otherwise, you should check your firewall, reboot your router, and close unnecessary programs to fix your <INSERT USER ISSUE HERE>.  failing that, a reboot should make your <INSERT USER COMPONENT HERE>.
[18:39] <gerzel> ok thanks
[18:39] <Krepta> Can anyone help me with my sound problem
[18:39] <ver> nice, my windows customer service script works almost perfectly...
[18:39] <onetinsoldier> gerzel: yeah, you might want to uninstall it and reinstall
[18:40] <onetinsoldier> gerzel: since you did a dist-upgrade
[18:40] <prometeus> hello, is there a way to configure apt-get for, creates 4 connection per download like an accelerator? my isp limit each connection speed? thanks
[18:41] <Synthercat> Question : memtest DID show errors after all night rendering (hi CPU load)... weird fact 1)Same program for XP never did that! 2)memtest after a few hours does not show problem any more!!! (I've used memtest for more than dacade and NEVER seen it show errors and then run smooth again!)
[18:41] <Krepta> verry weird
[18:41] <blakkheim> Synthercat: i didn't see a question in any of that
[18:42] <Slart> Synthercat: heat related? although I agree that it is weird..
[18:42] <gerzel> onetinsoldier: What vm product should I be looking for.  I want to run windows XP with Windows office 2007 on top of my current Ubuntu box any suggestions?
[18:42] <erUSUL> !vbox | gerzel
[18:42] <Krepta> I have a question!  Can someone help me with my sound problem?
[18:42] <inkbottle_> [ot] I'm looking for a channel to speak about "optical character recognition"? (especially ocropus if there is; alternatively any ocr / image segmentation / image processing)
[18:42] <usr13> prometeus: I think you need to re-phrase your question.
[18:42] <Slart> gerzel: virtualbox is free.. and good.. give it a try first
[18:42] <bastid_raZor> gerzel: vmware does well for me although many suggest virtualbox
[18:42] <rjent> Is there a way to stream netflix to ubuntu?
[18:43] <gerzel> Is virtual box on the ubuntu repositories?
[18:43] <onetinsoldier> gerzel: i would think 'VMWare Workstation'
[18:43] <Pici> !info virtualbox-ose
[18:43] <obiwan_> LjL: , ver and Myrtti , but you need to read man bash to be a good bash programmer, you can't just look up the thing you need each time at man bash, and same goes for iptables, people who know it speak by memory. i could look just the options i need for rsync though
[18:43] <ubuntu> Hallo
[18:43] <indradg> hi... i'm looking for a couple of licensing / trademark related question w.r.t redistribution of Ubuntu 9.10 DVDs.. is this the right forum to ask?
[18:43] <rhamptonii> ne1 able to help with a usb belkin wireless n on 9.10?
[18:43] <blakkheim> gerzel: if you want usb support you will need to install the version that is not in the repos
[18:43] <obiwan_> hi ubuntu
[18:43] <usr13> rjent: Heck, I haven't even figured out how to steam netflix to my TV yet!  :)
[18:43] <obiwan_> 'sup
[18:43] <Krepta> huh?
[18:43] <Slart> obiwan_: ouch.. that sounds painful.. there has to be good books out there about bash.. it's been around for a while
[18:44] <Krepta> just copy and redistribute them, it's open source
[18:44] <Synthercat> blakkheim : Ever heard of a memtest go wrong and then run ok once again? Why did only ubuntu caused it?
[18:44] <gerzel> ok
[18:44] <obiwan_> yeah slart, problem is that i can't even read the man, a book would be so worse...
[18:44] <LjL> obiwan_: people who learned to "program bash" and use iptables in its worst nuances most probably haven't learned it from manpages, but from good. for instance, google "bash scripting howto" for a really fine manual.
[18:44] <rhamptonii> ne1 able to help with a usb belkin wireless n on 9.10?
[18:44] <Krepta> ubuntu for dummies?
[18:44] <gerzel> thanks I'll look into things further
[18:45] <Slart> obiwan_: "can't even read the man".. I would say that managing to read the entire man page is a big feat indeed.. reading a book about bash sounds much more pleasant
[18:45] <raul_> I've installed emesene and I've tried to use my webcam, but it said "You don't have libmimic, so you can't send or receive webcam". I went to synaptic and I installed everything about "libmimic", but it still didn't work... what should I do?
[18:45] <obiwan_> look Slart  i like unix, i'm really interested in bash, i'd love to be a programmer, so some days i feel like, yeah this is the day, i'mma read it. but then i start, read like 400 lines man bash, and i just can't keep, cause i see it's 28xx lines, and i think dude this ain't possible, i just can't go on
[18:45] <indradg> Krepta, thanks I know that... but does Ubuntu have anything like "authorized artwork" for stuff like DVD disc labels that can be re-produced and distributed in unmodified format?
[18:45] <jason_froebe> Synthercat - memtest is bundled with Ubuntu but Ubuntu really has nothing to do with it.   If it sometimes says something is wrong but not always, the odds are that either your memory is going bad or it is overclocked
[18:46] <Slart> obiwan_: man pages are available as html-files as well.. perhaps that's easier on the eyes?
[18:47] <Krepta> indradg: not sure of anything, but I wouldn't worry about copying and giving copies of the discs, including labels.
[18:47] <obiwan_> ok LjL and Slart , i'll try about that. maybe that way i can, cause i'm really interested in making and of course, u nderstanding scripts. It fscks me when i open some /etc/init.d script and i don't u nderstand 60% of it's phrases haha
[18:47] <usr13> Slart: Try tty (easier on the eyes)...
[18:48] <Slart> obiwan_: I would go with something like this http://oreilly.com/catalog/9781565923478  (I'm not familiar with that book myself.. that's just an example)
[18:48] <obiwan_> that's true slart, html has anything... that makes things look better haha ^_^! well, it's ok thanks 4 advices to everybody
[18:48] <bullgard> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mbox: "The Mozilla family of MUAs (Mozilla, Netscape, Thunderbird, et al.) use an mboxrd variation with more complex From line quoting rules. Does Evolution use the same file format for holding collections of electronic mail messages?
[18:48] <Slart> usr13: you think a tty is easier to read than a html page?
[18:48] <obiwan_> yeah, i read that o'reilly is a refference book for any computing subject, they make realy good books i heard. i'll give it a try
[18:48] <erUSUL> Slart: obiwan_ yel the help viewer can read man pages too.
[18:48] <obiwan_> & thx 4 the link Slart !
[18:49] <Slart> obiwan_: you're welcome
[18:49] <Krepta> I can't make my usb sound card (headset) play any system sounds, or sound from any browser, but music player works, dvd audio works, and game audio works.  The internal sound card is dead, but the system doesn't know that.  What do I do, please?
[18:49] <Slart> erUSUL: ah.. didn't know that.. nice
[18:49] <usr13> Slart: Yes, and I often read html pages via lynx from tty Try it, you'll like it.
[18:49] <rhamptonii> ne1 able to help with a usb belkin wireless n on 9.10?  or point me in a good direction...forums were no help
[18:49] <erUSUL> bullgard: dunno; i think evolutions uses plain mbox (or maybe its own variation)
[18:50] <Slart> usr13: I'll give it a try =)
[18:50] <Lasivian> Does anyone know of a way to screenshot all gnome workspaces at once from cli?
[18:51] <obiwan_> :)
[18:52] <Lasivian> Guess I finally asked a hard question, I'm learning more :)
[18:53] <Synthercat> bye
[18:53] <CAPcap> How would I go about opening a .rar?
[18:54] <fosco__> CAPcap, sudo aptitude install rar unrar
[18:54] <euxneks> Lasivian: do you want a screenshot of the CLI or, a screenshot of desktop from cli?
[18:54] <onetinsoldier> CAPcap: install 'unrar' package. you'll probably want to install 'file-roller' as well
[18:54] <fosco__> then open it with file-roller
[18:54] <CAPcap> thanks fosco__
[18:54] <onetinsoldier> doh. i bet file-roller is another standard package, hehe
[18:55] <CAPcap> yeah its on my system
[18:55] <onetinsoldier> roger
[18:55] <strywgr> archive manager is installed
[18:55] <LastNighT> hello
[18:55] <onetinsoldier> hi!
[18:55] <strywgr> just try to open it with 'Archive Manager'
[18:56] <strywgr> Lasivian : I saw something you want on ubuntu forums, try searching for it.
[18:56] <znx^> Does anyone know how to open ports for download in terminal? I have already opened my router
[18:57] <euxneks> znx^: check out iptables
[18:57] <rhamptonii> ne1 able to help with a usb belkin wireless n on 9.10?  or point me in a good direction...forums were no help...try 3
[18:57] <erUSUL> znx^: by default ubuntu does not have a firewall running. if something is listening in the port then the port will be "open"
[18:58] <erUSUL> rhamptonii: what wifi chip does the dongle uses ?
[18:58] <znx^> euxneks: I am newbie and know nothing about anything
[18:58] <euxneks> znx^: then don't try iptables :P
[18:58] <erUSUL> rhamptonii: yes
[18:59] <euxneks> znx^: you should just be able to use whatever port is needed when an application is listening on it
[18:59] <euxneks> znx^: also, see erUSUL's comment regarding firewalls
[18:59] <rek> hi can i have a text based peer to peer?
[18:59] <rek> like amule
[19:00] <znx^> euxneks: well you know how transmission can check if the port is open to download.. and it's not.. download is so slow..
[19:00] <euxneks> znx^: that would either be your router or your ISP blocking that port. I would suggest a non-standard port
[19:00] <Diverdude> is it possible to make a list of all packages installed, reinstall ubuntu and just give this list to the packet manager, and then it installs all the packages again?
[19:01] <euxneks> znx^: and then make sure it's open on your router
[19:01] <onetinsoldier> Diverdude: yep
[19:01] <euxneks> znx^: you can also encrypt it afaik
[19:01] <onetinsoldier> Diverdude: i can give you the commands
[19:01] <znx^> euxneks: I opened the port on my router..
[19:01] <Diverdude> onetinsoldier, that would be very nice
[19:01] <error_name> Hello :)
[19:01] <error_name> i have very strange problem
[19:01] <onetinsoldier> Diverdude: roger... give me just a sec here
[19:01] <znx^> euxneks: and worked fine when using windows, but got tired of boot times there.. Just gotta resolve my download issue
[19:01] <error_name> my pc runs better if a game is running
[19:02] <error_name> can u help
[19:02] <Diverdude> onetinsoldier, ok, thx a lot m8
[19:02] <znx^> euxneks: But don't know, the torrent might not be healthy or something
[19:02] <euxneks> znx^: yeah but you said transmission said the port was closed...?
[19:03] <euxneks> znx^: if that's the case, and you've opened the port on your router, then there must be something on the ISP's side blocking that port
[19:03] <znx^> euxneks: Yep, it says that it's closed.. tornado says it closed
[19:03] <Slart> error_name: it's not a cpu downclocking thing? ie without anything big running it underclocks the cpu which in turn makes it a bit sluggish.. but when you run something big it runs at normal speed?
[19:03] <euxneks> znx^: did it say it was closed in windows?
[19:03] <euxneks> znx^: and did you also use transmission in windows
[19:03] <znx^> euxneks: Nope..
[19:03] <onetinsoldier> Diverdude: np. to make the file(save on floppy/usb stick)... dpkg --get-selections > my_package_list.txt
[19:04] <znx^> euxneks: No i used utorrent..
[19:04] <error_name> slart how to make it run at normal speed everytime
[19:04] <euxneks> znx^: so, one of two things could solve this: encrypt your traffic (there should be an option in transmission) or change your net port on which you're sharing
[19:05] <thomatwork> Hi, I'm interested in using LDAP (and whatever else is necessary) on an Ubuntu server to replace Active Directory functionality. Anyone have tips or links on how to begin researching this? Are there any solid projects that have made this easy to do?
[19:05] <znx^> euxneks: But anyways, I have another problem that you might be able to help me with.. every one in a while i just loose my wifi connection, but i mean it just reconnects like right away
[19:05] <Slart> error_name: I'm not really sure how to do it in karmic.. in earlier versions you could install governors and a small applet for the gnome-panel.. then you could set it to "conservative", "on demand" and so on.. and even fixed cpu speeds
[19:05] <Diverdude>  onetinsoldier ok, nice...and to load it again?
[19:05] <euxneks> znx^: how close are you to the wifi router?
[19:05] <onetinsoldier> Diverdude: to reinstall --> dpkg --get-selections < my_package_list.txt && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -f install
[19:05] <znx^> euxneks: there is only one wall between it and me.
[19:06] <thomatwork> forgot to mention that I'd have about 100 users on XP & Windows7
[19:06] <znx^> euxneks: and it's gen. n i think
[19:06] <euxneks> znx^: well I can't really help you much there .. Maybe a different driver for your wireless card is needed?
[19:06] <onetinsoldier> Diverdude: there is also a metod of doing this using aptitude, but i don't know what the exact commands are for it
[19:06] <onetinsoldier> method*
[19:06] <Myrtti> !clone
[19:06] <konr> which are the basic latex packages I should install to be able to make pdf files from them?
[19:06] <znx^> euxneks: wouldn't know where to find it except for through that hardware scanner..
[19:07] <onetinsoldier> !clone | Diverdude
[19:07] <znx^> euxneks: and soz for being so ignorant about all this, just don't much of anything yet
[19:07] <euxneks> znx^: not at all :)
[19:07] <onetinsoldier> thanks Myrtti
[19:07] <RxDx> i have a core2duo with 3gb ram... should i install a 32 or 64bits version?
[19:07] <tegryan> Hi all, can anyone help me with the dreaded broadcom wireless/karmic update issue?
[19:07] <euxneks> znx^: man pages and wiki documents as well as forums and IRC are a great place to start :)
[19:08] <euxneks> znx^:  plus, you've got a better attitude than other people I've helped
[19:08] <_raven_> unetbootin does not make the stick bootable - what can i do?
[19:08] <znx^> euxneks: I've spend the last few days trying to get it worked out from there.. but no luck
[19:08] <euxneks> znx^: there is an option to prefer encrypted peers in transmission as well as changing the port under Peers and Network, respectively
[19:08] <Diverdude> onetinsoldier, aha thats really nice....What about packages that comes from repositories i had to add to the repos config file?
[19:09] <rhamptonii> ne1 able to help with a usb belkin wireless n on 9.10?  or point me in a good direction...forums were no help...try 4
[19:09] <znx^> euxneks: How's my attitude different? for the worse?
[19:09] <euxneks> znx^: no for the better
[19:09] <euxneks> znx^: I've seen people just come in here demanding help and being a total twat about things
[19:09] <onetinsoldier> Diverdude: you'll need to save your current /etc/apt.sources.list and then add them back in to your new installation
[19:09] <tegryan> I'm showing in my hardware manager that the Broadcom STA wireless driver is activated and currently in use, but when I use WICD to scan for networks none are found
[19:10] <onetinsoldier> Diverdude: your going to cloe a 9.10 install? is that right?
[19:10] <blakkheim> !broadcom > tegryan
[19:10] <onetinsoldier> Diverdude: your going to clone* a 9.10 install? is that right?
[19:10] <znx^> euxneks: naw.. I ain't gonna be a dick about things you know.. when I don't know nothing I can't even be cocky about anything you know :D
[19:10] <tegryan> great, thanks
[19:10] <euxneks> znx^: another thing to check is to make sure that your local ip address (something like <IP_ADDRESS>) matches with the router IP address you've set in the rules
[19:10] <Diverdude> onetinsoldier, ahh yes of course...okaythis is really awesome...this mean i can recreate my state very fast....except for those settings i made for the gui etc.
[19:10] <Myrtti> konr: pdflatex might pull all the dependencies you need
[19:11] <onetinsoldier> Diverdude: roger... and i typo'd... it's --> /etc/apt/sources.list
[19:11] <Diverdude> onetinsoldier, well.....basically i think my partioning is really fu.... so i should repartion everything and start over
[19:11] <znx^> okay, now how do I do that in ubuntu?
[19:11] <euxneks> znx^: you should be able to see something in Network Manager
[19:11] <rhamptonii> ne1 able to help with a usb belkin wireless n on 9.10?  or point me in a good direction...forums were no help...try 5

[19:12] <Diverdude> onetinsoldier, in my grub loader i have like 6 ubuntu  options and then 2 windows options and some extra below
[19:12] <onetinsoldier> Diverdude: my install is something ridiculous, like 8 partitions, lol
[19:13] <euxneks> znx^: you can also check in the terminal
[19:13] <epinky> thomatwork: better ask on #ubuntu-server channel
[19:13] <resno> on my dual boot, grub no longer does a timer to boot. how i set it back up?
[19:13] <euxneks> znx^: type this: ifconfig | grep "inet addr"
[19:13] <rhamptonii> experienced ndiswrapper folks out there?
[19:13] <euxneks> it will tell you your local address
[19:13] <euxneks> znx^: anyway I have to go. Good luck!!

[19:18] <azrael_> and i know my system can run it
[19:19] <error_name> guys my pc runs better if a game is present in the background. maybe its a cpu problem but how to speed it up when nothing is running(except the OS ofcourse)
[19:19] <fiez> how can I integrate icq to linux

[19:20] <ShishKabab> Hi. Is there any way I can burn a bunch of raw (40 or something) WAVs to a DVD in a way a standard DVD player can play them. I tried DeVeDe but it can only handle video files.
[19:21] <onetinsoldier> XBlackChaosX: you said you are running 9.10, hehe
[19:21] <blakkheim> fiez: open terminal and type sudo aptitude install pidgin
[19:21] <onetinsoldier> XBlackChaosX: although i'm not positive, i think it is possible to dist-upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10
[19:22] <XBlackChaosX> onetinsoldier, i do have 9.04 but it seems that i cant do some of the things i wanna do with 9.10 because of alot of changes that was made so i wanna go from 9.10 to 9.04

[19:23] <CAPcap> How can I change my pointer from the standard white one? when i click the different pointers in the custom theme menu it only changes it for text boxes and some screens (like the admin authorit screen)
[19:24] <deostroll> hi can v request an ubuntu 9.04 cd to be freely shipped to us?
[19:24] <Slart> !shipit
[19:24] <PeturI> deostroll: www.ubuntu.com you can apply there
[19:24] <Myrtti> deostroll: 9.04? they don't shipit anymore, I believe
[19:24] <mneptok> CAPcap: IIRC, you need to logout and back in for the change to take effect system-wide.
[19:24] <DrPraetor> How do I find which package has the pascal compiler?
[19:24] <PeturI> Slart: I requested a shipment of Ubuntu and i recived a 9.10 disk... u better update your bot
[19:24] <malsyned> Anybody mind pasting me their /etc/fstab?    I don't need the functional lines, I want all the comment lines.
[19:25] <deostroll> k wht abt the 9.10 release...is the bug fized...?
[19:25] <Slart> DrPraetor: use synaptic to search for pascal.. there are a few, I think
[19:25] <PeturI> What bug?
[19:25] <erUSUL> DrPraetor: probably lazarus or freepascal

[19:28] <rhamptonii> ndiswrapper shows device and so does lsusb...but error in messages file indicates a problem with the driver loading
[19:28] <strywgr> Mrokii : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KeyboardShortcuts - follow this page.
[19:28] <rocket_> malsyned: blkid -o value -s UUID

[19:31] <Gesi> hi i am a new user of ubuntu and i got a file .run i want to install it but i dont know how to convert it to .deb  thank you
[19:32] <osfameron> evening
[19:32] <`mOOse`> rhamptonii: what's the error - paste it to pastebin.org and then paste the url in here
[19:32] <protojay> gesi: u cant do that
[19:32] <dacs> erUSUL: thanks
[19:32] <osfameron> how can I get nautilus to understand afp:/// urls (like those exposed by MacOSX Sharing) ?
[19:32] <onetinsoldier> Gesi: i don't think it can be converted. but you can run the .run file to try and install it's contents
[19:33] <resno> !grub
[19:33] <hiexpo> gesi that is not happening
[19:33] <resno> !grub2
[19:34] <strywgr> Gesi : open a terminal, to the directory of the .run file, -> Type "chmod +x filename.run"
[19:34] <admredes> hola
[19:34] <osfameron> !afp
[19:34] <mike8i8> hola
[19:34] <osfameron> meh
[19:34] <erUSUL> !es | admredes
[19:34] <osfameron> any ideas?
[19:34] <strywgr> Gesi : -> ./filename.run and hit enter.
[19:34] <mike8i8> speak english please! :P
[19:35] <vn> hi, are there ubuntu packages for HyperV VM tools?
[19:35] <trism> resno: you can edit the timer in /etc/default/grub. if the menu doesn't show up at all, comment out GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 (put a # infront of the line) and run sudo update-grub;
[19:35] <erUSUL> osfameron: gvfs has to understand afp i think it curently does not
[19:35] <rhamptonii> mOOse:  http://pastebin.org/76345
[19:35] <erUSUL> osfameron: and i dunno if there are plans to add it

[19:36] <syk> deostroll, im pretty sure, whats the problem?
[19:36] <Gorlist> Hi, ive slightly backed myself into a corner - trying to get Blender sculpting to work I applied some new mesa drivers available through another repo which should resolve the problem (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/446632), however since doing so blender now fails to load.
[19:36] <mike8i8> I am
[19:36] <osfameron> erUSUL: ok... I don't absolutely need nautilus to wrap the pretty URL (though it'd be nice!)  Is there a way to connect, even if it's less convenient ?
[19:36] <Slart> !anyone | deostroll
[19:36] <Gorlist> Ive removed the repo I added from the package manager, but how can I back date the mesa to the offical repo releasE?
[19:37] <deostroll> Slart: thot it had an install issue when it was released...?
[19:37] <`mOOse`> k rhamptonii....hang a sec
[19:37] <euxneks> deostroll: I have installed and did not get any issues
[19:37] <osfameron> erUSUL: ah, I'm seeing mentioned of openafs-client... I'll try that
[19:37] <Slart> deostroll: hmm.. nothing I noticed when I installed it.. haven't heard anything about it here either
[19:37] <resno> trism: when i run sudo update-grub it says command not found
[19:37] <CAPcap> how do i log out? the guides say system > log out, but i dont have a log out option
[19:38] <Slart> deostroll: 9.04 had some issues with intel graphics.. but I don't remember anything that serious with 9.10
[19:38] <euxneks> deostroll: in fact, it was a really easy install
[19:38] <ardchoille> CAPcap: it's over on the right under your user
[19:38] <CAPcap> thanks very much ardchoille
[19:38] <ardchoille> yw
[19:38] <deostroll> euxneks: probably they've fixed it then...
[19:38] <erUSUL> osfameron: i think openafs stands for Andrew Filesystem ...
[19:38] <robo> hi: if i'm using the ubuntu live cd, do you think it will find fibre channel connected hard drives?
[19:39] <euxneks> deostroll: well I don't recall ever hearing of any install issues with karmic
[19:39] <ardchoille> CAPcap: alternately you can remove that user applet and the logout/shutdown options will appear under System
[19:39] <osfameron> erUSUL: ah?  http://www.openafs.org/ suggests that OSx is *a* user of it

[19:40] <Gabriel_ubuntu> I have a simple question, how do you install winks on amsn?
[19:40] <erUSUL> osfameron: probably it is better to use samba or nfs on OSX to serve the files
[19:40] <mike8i8> hi
[19:40] <resno> when i run sudo update-grub i get command not found
[19:40] <MASARUwota> Gabriel_ubuntu: you dont, winks are flash + internet explorer thingies, which wont work outside of WLM
[19:41] <rhamptonii> m00se:  only errors i get from plugging in the adapter...i would assume it indicates a problem of some sort
[19:41] <tag_> Anyone know what happened to the doxygen-gui package in karmic?
[19:41] <Gesi> thank you everyone its working
[19:41] <strywgr> Gesi :)
[19:41] <Gabriel_ubuntu> so in other words, I cant use any wink on amsn?
[19:41] <strywgr> I think you can Gabriel, check out amsn's website for that.
[19:41] <osfameron> erUSUL: um.  This is someone else's laptop.  Asking them to enable sharing (one click from System PReferences) I can do.  Asking htem to install and configure Samba for me...
[19:41] <Gabriel_ubuntu> ok, let me check
[19:42] <mike8i8> try sudo update-grub2
[19:42] <resno> mike8i8: command not found

[19:46] <usr13> ardchoille: But it's always been broken on this system, just wondering if there's a way to fix it, or to figure out what's wrong with it.

[20:00] <erUSUL> Mrokii: doesn't work means ? you get a blank screen? or what?

[20:01] <fs-a> does anyone know what's that stand-up comedy show with black people and a white dj?
[20:01] <erUSUL> Mrokii: are you sure your keyboard is well configured ?

[20:02] <rmman> Hi.  If I do rm -I on a lot of files, it says "remove all arguments?"
[20:02] <rmman> Is there a way to make it list all the files it plans to remove?
[20:02] <Mrokii> erUSUL:  That's a bit of a problematic issue, as I use an Apple Extended Keyboard II (pretty old, with an ADB-adaptor).
[20:02] <rmman> Like a quick general overview
[20:02] <Mrokii> erUSUL:  But as far as I can tell, I think I configured it properly.
[20:03] <Turbolinux> Hello everyone. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 on my internet notebook computer. I want to use Ubuntu Netbook Remix desktop but I have an question for one situation. If I want to use standard desktop system, can I select from Netbook Remix desktop menu?
[20:03] <erUSUL> Mrokii: i suspect it may be becouse of the weird keyboard but i dunno how to solve it ...
[20:03] <usr13> ardchoille: I fixed it:  sudo apt-get install --reinstall vim vim-common vim-gnome vim-gui-common vim-runtime
[20:03] <tyrosine> Turbolinux: ALT+F1?
[20:03] <Mrokii> linux:  I think removing that should be possible by right-clicking on the Applications-menu and choosing "edit menus"
[20:04] <mtaftm> hey can you use manycam in ubuntu ?!
[20:04] <onetinsoldier> linux: try System --> Preferences --> Main Menu
[20:04] <linux> Ahhh!!! sweet man thanks
[20:04] <_raven_> how to start a win-manager in UBUNTU-SERVER?
[20:04] <linux> its there... thanks!
[20:04] <linux> lol i just switched... so im so use to windows and i dont know much about linux
[20:04] <ardchoille> usr13: yay :)
[20:05] <jrib> _raven_: always?
[20:05] <mike8i8> raven:
[20:05] <Mrokii> erUSUL:  Well, other shortcuts (like ctrl+alt+backspace) work, so it seems that only the function-keys are a problem.
[20:05] <erUSUL> _raven_: you have to install one first
[20:05] <onetinsoldier> linux: roger. you're welcome. no worries. enjoy!
[20:05] <mtaftm> anyone can you help me :) ?!
[20:05] <Turbolinux> Tyrosine: it only opens console session.
[20:05] <epinky> !anyone | mtaftm
[20:05] <erUSUL> Mrokii: sure. do the function key give error in other apps or situations ?
[20:06] <Mrokii> erUSUL:  no. the shortcut for opening a command-window for example (in conjunction with F2) works as well.
[20:07] <Mrokii> erUSUL:  I mean, the shortcut that opens a requester where one can type something in/run an application
[20:07] <axos88> Hi! I am trying to set up NFS server on ubuntu, for a windows xp client. I keep getting invalid username / password from the win xp side... what can be the problem, where can I find some log files,
[20:07] <ubuntu> hi
[20:07] <erUSUL> Mrokii: dunno really; can you test the same machine with a nother keyboard ?
[20:07] <_raven_> erUSUL, how - i have only internet when i can install the umts-stick on ubuntu-server
[20:08] <erUSUL> axos88: why use nfs with windows clients ?
[20:08] <unop> rmman,  just echo the glob out?   e.g.  echo *
[20:08] <Mrokii> erUSUL:  I have another (regular USB, but also from Apple) keyboard and these shortcuts do not work there as well.
[20:08]  * _Ovidiu is away: Gone away for now
[20:08] <erUSUL> :/
[20:08] <axos88> erUSUL, because I can't use samba for several reasons, and our dataserver is NFS, so eventually I will need to migrate there too
[20:08] <_raven_> erUSUL, ?
[20:09] <erUSUL> axos88: ok
[20:09] <_raven_> how to start a win-manager in UBUNTU-SERVER?
[20:09] <erUSUL> axos88: log files in /var/log/
[20:09] <mike8i8> raven: http://xwinman.org/basics.php
[20:09] <Turbolinux> Hello again. Can I select standard desktop from Netbook Remix desktop menu if I install it?
[20:09] <mtaftm> HELLLLLLLLLO lol i asked my question now i get no help
[20:09] <nibbler> _raven_, install it first, but its a server!
[20:09] <ardchoille> !away > _Ovidiu
[20:09] <mike8i8> axos88: I recommend u to follow a guide
[20:09] <erUSUL> !patience | mtaftm
[20:09] <axos88> erUSUL, where does the NFS server log to, i didn't searched through messages and syslog, but there was nothing related there... no nfs directory or files either
[20:09] <_raven_> nibbler, i cannot install anything until i managed to install the umts-usb-stick first
[20:09] <sagar> ne1 hot
[20:10] <erUSUL> axos88: maybe /var/log/daemon.log ?
[20:10] <mtaftm> im sorry :( ive searched but aint had no look, surely there is a program like manycam in ubuntu :(
[20:10] <sagar> w3w
[20:10] <tyrosine> what is manycam mtaftm
[20:10] <nibbler> _raven_, not easy then....
[20:10] <mtaftm> tyrosine: its webcam software with many tools
[20:11] <tyrosine> mtaftm: there's a lot of webcam software for linux
[20:11] <genii> mtaftm: Perhaps check out ZoneMinder instead
[20:11] <mtaftm> genii: whats ZoneMinder
[20:11] <Mrokii> erUSUL:  The only thing I can think of is that there is a problem with the selected keyboard-model. I struggled some time to find the proper one (had to use some bash-commands to do so), and maybe that, in conjunction with the ADB-adaptor lead to wrong keycodes in some ways.
[20:11] <axos88> erUSUL, yeah, there are 3 entries there, but 2 days old

[20:22] <Gorlist> onetinsoldier, typo
[20:22] <onetinsoldier> Gorlist: hmmm, roger. that line you removed from sources.list wasn't there by default was it? when you first installed ubuntu
[20:22] <Matson> I tried the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick with the iso, and the eee did not recognize the USB
[20:22] <onetinsoldier> Gorlist: oh? everything ok then?

[20:27] <Hinata> Hi, I am trying to compile Wine 1.1.36 (32bits) on Ubuntu 9.10 (64bits) by following these instructions: http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit#head-d6dc6aaec38bf9f2198767215ea1813c44a5981d but when I do CC="gcc-4.3 -m32" LDFLAGS="-L/lib32 -L/usr/lib32 -Wl,-rpath,/lib32 -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib32" ./configure -v I get this error message: http://pastebin.com/d77bbbd48 and my config.log looks like this: http://pastebin.com/d150f5e78 I looked on internet and appar
[20:27] <ikonia> Rob215: ask a question if you want help
[20:27] <mtaftm> onetinsoldier: linux is confusing
[20:27] <Pudgy> Hi all, does anyone know how to start programs in WMII 3 in a certain workspace? I had it working (switching to the workspace in wmiirc, then starting the program &) in Jaunty, but since karmic it isn't working.
[20:28] <erUSUL> Hinata: *why* are you doing that?
[20:28] <ikonia> Hinata: that doesn't look like your compiler is multi-lib aware
[20:28] <onetinsoldier> mtaftm: ya. it can be.
[20:28] <Hinata> ikonia: is there something I can do to fix it?
[20:28] <Rob215> Over every system window in the title bar it says: ROOT: (and then the rest)
[20:29] <ikonia> Hinata: also do a "which gcc" and show me the output
[20:29] <mtaftm> :/
[20:29] <ikonia> Rob215: show me the output of "id" please
[20:29] <Rob215> id?
[20:29] <ikonia> Rob215: yes, the command "id"
[20:29] <erUSUL> !remaster
[20:29] <Rob215> my username is andrzej:   uid=1000(andrzej) gid=1000(andrzej) groups=0(root),3(sys),4(adm),20(dialout),21(fax),24(cdrom),26(tape),27(sudo),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),103(fuse),104(lpadmin),112(netdev),115(admin),120(sambashare),121(clamav),803(main),1000(andrzej)
[20:30] <Hinata> ikonia: /usr/bin/gcc ?
[20:30] <ikonia> Hinata: please do "gcc -v" and put the output in a pastebin please
[20:30] <bullgard> I set up Teatime using the sound file desktop-login.ogg. But Teatime does not produce any sound. What set do I need to select from a sound file from for Teatime? '~$ man teatime; No manual entry for teatime.'
[20:30] <ikonia> Rob215: interesting so your title windows shouldn't be showing as root, as that's normally taken from your username
[20:30] <Gorlist> onetinsoldier, sorry doesn't appear to be working - its still using the git version install from the other test repo
[20:30] <guest1> newbie needs help setting up a master nick...
[20:30] <Gorlist> onetinsoldier, ive rechecked the enabled repos and ive certainly commented it out

[20:31] <Damn3d>  i
[20:31] <onetinsoldier> Gorlist: hmmmm, roger
[20:31] <sagar> hey is hitch any good
[20:31] <Gorlist> libgl1-mesa-dri
[20:31] <mtaftm> onetinsoldier: wtf is a respority
[20:31] <ikonia> Hinata: there is the problem, you're using gcc 4-4, which your command to just gcc -m32
[20:31] <Gorlist> onetinsoldier, these are the two in trying to roll back (libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-glx)
[20:31] <ikonia> mtaftm: please control your language
[20:32] <ikonia> Hinata: (keep the rest but instead of gcc-4-3 make it gcc)
[20:32] <onetinsoldier> Gorlist: you could clean the cache, even though i don't think that'll make any difference. the command is --> apt-cache clean
[20:32] <Gorlist> onetinsoldier, rgr
[20:32] <sagar> fuck u bastards
[20:32] <sagar> answer
[20:32] <Hinata> ikonia: ok I'll try thanks for your help ^ ^
[20:32] <Gorlist> onetinsoldier, invalid command
[20:33] <ikonia> Hinata: eg: CC="gcc m32" LDFLAGS="-L/lib32 -L/usr/lib32 -Wl,-rpath,/lib32 -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib32"
[20:33] <Gorlist> onetinsoldier, apt-get clean?
[20:33] <onetinsoldier> mtaftm: it's a server where ubuntu packages are kept that are avaible for downloading and installing via apt-get/synaptic/aptitude
[20:33] <onetinsoldier> Gorlist: apt-cache clean
[20:33] <mtaftm> ahh im confused man
[20:33] <Gorlist> onetinsoldier, E: Invalid operation clean
[20:33] <onetinsoldier> Gorlist: one sec
[20:34] <ChogyDan> Gorlist: apt-get clean is a valid command
[20:34] <pratik_donda> hello
[20:34] <Gorlist> ChogyDan, rgr
[20:34] <Gorlist> onetinsoldier, erm what does dump do?
[20:34] <onetinsoldier> Gorlist: my bad... it should be apt-get clean
[20:34] <Rob215> http://i50.tinypic.com/iqczus.png
[20:35] <mtaftm> i might go back to windows :P
[20:35] <Mrokii> okay, thanks all for the help. Leaving.
[20:35] <onetinsoldier> dump shows a short listing of every package in the cache
[20:35] <Myrtti> mtaftm: good luck
[20:35] <Rob215> ikonia: http://i50.tinypic.com/iqczus.png
[20:35] <ChogyDan> Gorlist: apt-cache policy package-name may also be a useful command
[20:35] <onetinsoldier> Gorlist: dump shows a short listing of every package in the cache.. might be like doing --> ls /var/cache/apt/archives
[20:35] <ikonia> Rob215: looking
[20:35] <Gorlist> onetinsoldier, no improvement - i must be doing something wrong
[20:36] <Rob215> ikonia: see the mouse pointer it?
[20:36] <ikonia> Rob215: sure
[20:36] <Rob215> ikonia: now let go to the solution
[20:36] <onetinsoldier> Gorlist: i know one way to make sure you get what you want... download the packages from http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[20:37] <ikonia> Rob215: at this moment, no idea, just looking/thinking
[20:37] <Gorlist> onetinsoldier, good idea, will try it :)
[20:37] <mtaftm> linux is all command lines if it was windows based alot more people would use it :/
[20:37] <onetinsoldier> Gorlist: roger. not sure what's going on with your sources.list and apt-get
[20:37] <ActionParsnip28> mtaftm: it can be either. some stuff is easier at command line. same with windows
[20:37] <ikonia> mtaftm: there is a window system for it
[20:38] <Gorlist> onetinsoldier, no, must be human error somewhere, but its just refusing to do it
[20:38] <Amm0n|> got a problem with lm-sensors.. no sensors were detected: http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/397387/ and lshw: http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/397388/
[20:38] <mtaftm> yh called wine but many cam dont work with wine
[20:38] <onetinsoldier> Gorlist: hehe, roger
[20:38] <ActionParsnip28> mtaftm: it won't. you need to install and configure the linux driver
[20:39] <rek> erUSUL: how can i download files?
[20:39] <mtaftm> actionparsnip28: what are you on about , i said manycam dont work with wine
[20:39] <ActionParsnip28> mtaftm: then find an equivelant app
[20:39] <erUSUL> !lastlog rek
[20:40] <Rob215> ikonia: i remember i ran once i had start naulitus but i started from the root terminal, then i used kill naulitus (and the other instance too) and then i started it from a normal terminal
[20:40] <erUSUL> rek: with mldonkey ?
[20:40] <rek> ye
[20:40] <mtaftm> ActionParsnip28: there aint any lol
[20:40] <rek> yes
[20:40] <ikonia> Rob215: that wouldn't explain why it's doing it now
[20:40] <squarepeg> hello
[20:40] <Rob215> ikonia: i remember  i had start naulitus from a TERMINAL but i started from the root terminal, then i used kill naulitus (and the other instance too) and then i started it from a normal terminal
[20:40] <squarepeg> I tried to set my time zone to new_york
[20:40] <erUSUL> rek: you can access its web interface it is easier that way
[20:40] <ActionParsnip28> mtaftm: then if the main use of the system is that app then you will have to dual boot to get it
[20:40] <squarepeg> It left "local timezone" 5 hours off
[20:41] <squarepeg> i used dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
[20:41] <squarepeg> UTC is correct
[20:41] <ikonia> Rob215: that still doesn't explain why it's doing it now
[20:41] <rek> erUSUL:  how? this is a server.... i need a p2p
[20:41] <mtaftm> ActionParsnip28: its not a must its just a shame i cant use it or there aint a program like it for linux
[20:41] <Scunizi> mtaftm: you looking for a program to monitor multiple security cams?
[20:41] <erUSUL> rek: it is in http://localhost:4080
[20:41] <squarepeg> how do I make sure the local time zone is correct?
[20:41] <rek> erUSUL: what
[20:41] <erUSUL> rek: if you need command line is via telnet like interface
[20:42] <jimcooncat> Debian 5.0 release notes say: The preferred program for package management from the command line is aptitude, which can perform the same package management functions as apt-get and has proven to be better at dependency resolution. -- Does this hold true with Ubuntu? Should we be telling people to use "aptitude" instead of "apt-get"?
[20:42] <mtaftm> Scunizi: no im looking for a program where i can show my pictures via through Amsn or show my friends videos through webcam via Msn
[20:42] <erUSUL> rek: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MLDonkey <<< here
[20:42] <rek> ok telnet what
[20:43] <ActionParsnip28> jimcooncat: both are fine. apt-get install all needed deps just like aptitude does
[20:43] <Scunizi> mtaftm: ah.. for pics there's lots of quick paste pic sites you could use and then provide them a link i the IM window.. How about google wave?  It can do pics.. not sure about video though.
[20:43] <ActionParsnip28> yay googlewave
[20:43] <jimcooncat> ActionParsnip28: I wonder if Ubuntu supercharged apt-get
[20:44] <ActionParsnip28> jimcooncat: possibly. i've always use apt-get and never had a problem
[20:44] <saml> what's command to convert wav to ogg?
[20:44] <mtaftm> Scunizi: i just want it for Msn none of my mates have googlewave, if you had Manycam you would see what i mean
[20:44] <onetinsoldier> just use 'the original' --> dselect
[20:44] <Slart> Scunizi: google wave does youtube stuff, images.. there are som plugins for webcams as well
[20:44] <Slart> Scunizi:just fyi =)
[20:44] <kedonn> !list
[20:45] <onetinsoldier> just a little joke... hehe
[20:45] <ActionParsnip28> saml: mencoder or winff or handbrake are options

[20:58] <karan> ?
[20:58] <Scunizi> karan: the proof is in the pudding.. better w/ 2gig of ram.. but you'll see how fast it is when installed.
[20:59] <karan> ok thanks you

[21:06] <EastDallas> Gesi: gmail will automatically pull your email from hotmail and then you can d/l it via pop3
[21:06] <schui_> well im having trouble removing a menu entry
[21:07] <MASARUwota> Rob215:have you tried another window manager?
[21:07] <EastDallas> schui_: ok...more?
[21:07] <Rob215> MASARUwota: no
[21:07] <brokendisk> when i run ddrescue to rescue my disk it starts working, updates some numbers like access rate but stops updating after 20 seconds and the disk makes scratchy noises again for like 30 seconds, then it is silent and nothing happens for hours
[21:07] <brokendisk> what can i do?
[21:07] <ardchoille> schui_: is this a menu entry that you created?
[21:07] <digilord> schui_, System -> Preferences -> Main Menu
[21:07] <MorphyNOR> brokendisk: sounds like a HW problem, probably fried HDD
[21:07] <MASARUwota> Rob215:you should give that a try then, it might be GNOME or METACITY acting up.
[21:08] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: yes but ddrescue shuold rescue exactly that
[21:08] <Rob215> MASARUwota: but it's on system windows'
[21:08] <schui_> thank you
[21:08] <MorphyNOR> brokendisk: no, not really :)
[21:08] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: it should just jump over fried sectors
[21:08] <bredoto> does anyone know how to disable wifi card in ubuntu? It is allways in alive mode and any control keys do not disable it.
[21:08] <EastDallas> schui_: right click on the word applications and choose 'Edit Menus'
[21:08] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: it says so in the doc
[21:08] <MorphyNOR> brokendisk: not if the HDD is physically damaaged
[21:08] <MASARUwota> Rob215: windows are managed by the window manager. thats what i said
[21:08] <jmichaelx> i am running chown -R on a full 400GB HD, with many small files. is it unusual that this could take 20-30+ minutes to complete?
[21:08] <MorphyNOR> damaged*
[21:08] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: yes exactly for physically damaged disks it is meant
[21:08] <EastDallas> jmichaelx: nope
[21:08] <bredoto> does anyone know how to disable wifi card in ubuntu? It is allways in alive mode and any control keys do not disable it.
[21:09] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: thats the entire idea of ddrescue
[21:09] <jmichaelx> EastDallas: thanks very much. i was trying to figure out whether or not something was hanging.
[21:09] <yuvalo> how do I make an ISO from USB flash drive?
[21:09] <MorphyNOR> brokendisk: call me a naysayer if you wish, but I think you put too much faith into that :)
[21:09] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: did you ever read the ddrescue doc? http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/ddrescue.html
[21:09] <bredoto> hia. does anyone know how to disable wifi card in ubuntu? It is allways in alive mode and any control keys do not disable it.
[21:09] <MorphyNOR> if something is physically hindering a HDD from working properly, no software in the world can fix it
[21:10] <Rob215> MASARUwota: look at http://i46.tinypic.com/2gtqe5d.jpg
[21:10] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: yes it can rescue parts of it, thats what ddrescue is meant for.
[21:10] <EastDallas> jmichaelx: I changed permissions on a 120GB hdd a while back and it took 15 or so minutes to hit every file.
[21:10] <ardchoille> !repeat | bredoto
[21:10] <MorphyNOR> brokendisk: a HDD is a mechanical device, if there is something mechanically wrong with it, its dead, unless you ship it off to some fancy HDD rescue shop who will take it apart and fix it for you manually
[21:10] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: not correct
[21:11] <MASARUwota> Rob215: backup and rename your config files, or try another Window manager. DO IT
[21:11] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: there are many different hardware errors, most partially fixable
[21:11] <MorphyNOR> if a HDD makes "strange noises" it is usually damaged
[21:11] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: no, it usually means head failure and bad sectors, which ddrescue is meant for to deal with
[21:11] <Rob215> MASARUwota: where on earth can i get a window manager other than nautitilus
[21:11] <bredoto> sorry for repeating my question its becaus of my low connection speed and long irc client response!
[21:11] <MorphyNOR> brokendisk: okay, well why dont you just use it then? :)
[21:12] <erUSUL> brokendisk: using rfkill
[21:12] <dacs> using nmap -PE -PA21,23,80,3389 -A -v -T4  myIP i am getting port 23 is filtered ...why?
[21:12] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: the problem is it stops working after some time
[21:12] <jmichaelx> EastDallas: then i may be in for a long ride. this has been going for 20 minutes or so already.... i am wanting to rsync its contents to another drive and was going to use grsync as user... i should have just run rsync from CLI with sudo, and could have saved much time. :-(
[21:12] <brokendisk> i dont know why
[21:12] <digilord> Rob215, Use kubuntu?
[21:12] <brokendisk> erUSUL: to kill ddrescue or to save the data?
[21:12] <MASARUwota> Rob215: you dont know what a window manager is, do you. well, just try backing up your .config directory, and relog
[21:12] <MorphyNOR> brokendisk: maybe because it cant read from the disk AT ALL?
[21:12] <erUSUL> brokendisk: sorry; wrong nick
[21:12] <Rob215> digilord:no, ubuntu
[21:12] <iceroot> Rob215: nautilus is not a window-manager  its a file-browser
[21:12] <erUSUL> bredoto: use rfkill
[21:12] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: it can read from the disk, it works for 20 seconds
[21:13] <digilord> You asked about another window manager... kubuntu doesn't use nautilus
[21:13] <Rob215> MASARUwota: windows manager. do you know any.
[21:13] <dragon> Is lucid-alpha-2 out?
[21:13] <schui_> i dont suppose anyone could help me install UT2004: Editor's Choice edition?

[21:14] <dragon> erUSUL: yeahhhh, thanks.
[21:14] <blistov> I've removed a package via apt-get remove foo, but I did not use the --purge option.  How can I remove all the files --purge would have removed?
[21:14] <Rob215> wait wait!!
[21:14] <MASARUwota> Rob215: install icewm or something, and retry
[21:14] <Gesi> thanks to everyone
[21:14] <EastDallas> brokendisk: MorphyNOR:  Sometimes placing a damaged HDD in an airtight container and freezing it will make it work a little longer for a temporary solution.
[21:14] <MASARUwota> make sure to pick it at session
[21:14] <erUSUL> bredoto: it can disable the wifi card
[21:14] <Gesi> YOU ROCK :D
[21:14] <iceroot> blistov: apt-get remove --purge package
[21:14] <MASARUwota> Rob215: then pick it as "session" on the login screen
[21:14] <iceroot> blistov: you can call it even if you used remove before
[21:14] <jmichaelx> blistov: you can still run purge for that package
[21:14] <brokendisk> EastDallas: yes heard about that too, it will contract the platters and remove friction between head and surface
[21:14] <ardchoille> blistov: sudo apt-get autoremove
[21:14] <brokendisk> didnt try that yet though
[21:15] <blistov> iceroot, I've tried doing exactly that.  It does not remove  the configs for sendmail.
[21:15] <MorphyNOR> EastDallas: pseudo science? a HDD is an airtight device already...
[21:15] <Rob215> MASARUwota: my login screen doesn't work!!
[21:15] <brokendisk> EastDallas: any idea why ddrescue suddenly stops working? it is built do deal with bad sectors and jump over them
[21:15] <dacs> using nmap -PE -PA21,23,80,3389 -A -v -T4  myIP i am getting port 23 is filtered ...why?
[21:15] <MASARUwota> Rob215: WHAT?
[21:15] <MASARUwota> !doesntwork|Rob215
[21:15] <iceroot> blistov: apt-get purge   instead of remove --purge?
[21:15] <EastDallas> MorphyNOR: yeah, but the electronics are not protected from the moisture in the freezer
[21:15] <brokendisk> yes EastDallas is right
[21:15] <Rob215> MASARUwota:lol
[21:15] <MorphyNOR> brokendisk: do that then...
[21:15] <dragon> !doesntwork | Rob215
[21:16] <blistov> iceroot, nope, still nothing.  Just reports back that sendmail is not installed.
[21:16] <blistov> Which I'm aware of :)
[21:16] <CAPcap>  ctrl-alt-del and you get your task manager. is there any hotkey for the system monitor? or any way to establish one?
[21:16] <iceroot> blistov: and config-file does not mean *.conf for purge  conf-files are files which are in the package debian/conffiles
[21:16] <Rob215> Ubottu: lol
[21:16] <brokendisk> MorphyNOR: no thats the last resort and only necessary if the device is not recognized by the bios due to sticking heads
[21:16] <EastDallas> brokendisk: yeah, but if your hdd is physically failing ddrescue might not be of much help.  That's why I suggested the freezing option.  Of course that's a las resort.
[21:16] <blistov> iceroot, well /etc/init.d/sendmail and /etc/mail/sendmail* is all still existing.
[21:16] <brokendisk> but my bios has the device, the wquestion is why ddrescue stops working after it successfully started
[21:17] <blistov> I'm sure the sendmail dpkg installed them, so logically, purge should remove them .
[21:17] <bredoto> erUSUL, hm it does not help. wi-fi led is steel in active mode. it is very strange because iwconfig does not show any wi-fi devices.
[21:17] <iceroot> blistov: hm maybe install again and then use purge?
[21:17] <EastDallas> brokendisk: the drive motor might be failing...Have you looked at the S.M.A.R.T. data?
[21:17] <brokendisk> EastDallas: my device is already found by the bios so dont need the freezer method
[21:17] <brokendisk> EastDallas: smart says OK motor works
[21:18] <Rob215> MASARUwota: Slowly put: logoff... then... click on my username .. and then... doesn't work
[21:18] <bredoto> erUSUL, it happened after my system upgrade
[21:18] <EastDallas> brokendisk: smart only shows bad sectors, no spin up fails?
[21:18] <wrapster> how do i resync luns ?
[21:18] <CAPcap>  ctrl-alt-del and you get your task manager. is there any hotkey for the system monitor? or any way to establish one?
