[04:27] <kainektisis84> i want to tell you something.  I have been trying to fix this problem for at least 48 man hours without any chat and just the internet and nobody knows what they are doing
[04:27] <edbian> kainektisis84,
[04:27] <vlt> kinja-sheep: What is lxde? A distro?
[04:28] <kinja-sheep> vlt: Desktop environment. Like GNOME, XFCE, KDE, blackbox, etc.
[04:28] <kainektisis84> can i make you my buddy ben
[04:28] <Ben64> kainektisis84: buddy where
[04:28] <kainektisis84> in pidgin
[04:28] <edbian> Ben64, How did you learn to wright those mode lines??
[04:28] <Ben64> i don't really do IM that much
[04:29] <Ben64> kainektisis84: <my name<EMAIL_ADDRESS>is my email though
[04:29] <kainektisis84> no thats fine.  you just know what you are doing and i want to be sure that i can find you again if i run into problems
[04:29] <te> vlt: lxde looks very interesting.
[04:30] <edbian> Ben64, I understand the resolutions, how do you determine all of those other numbers on each line?
[04:30]  * kinja-sheep jot down the email address in his little black book.
[04:30] <Ben64> edbian: a bit of trickery and grabbing from other confs
[04:30] <edbian> Ben64, ha ha ha
[04:30] <daus> any PPC user here?
[04:30] <daus> I mean Ubuntu PPC
[04:30] <tsuna27> my top panel wont change colours at the right and left but the middle will
[04:30] <edbian> Ben64, Do you guessed then??
[04:30] <Ben64> edbian: nah
[04:30] <kinja-sheep> vlt: If you're just messing around and testing stuffs, you can try lubuntu-desktop, I suppose. I'm due to test that sometimes on my netbook.
[04:31] <scunizi> Ben64: is that from your xorg.conf? or the newer xrandr conf file
[04:31] <Ben64> it's important to have them work, i got good ones, so i pasted it forever
[04:31] <kainektisis84> ben you are<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[04:31] <Ben64> kainektisis84: no... ben64r   ..... at gmail
[04:31] <Ben64> i just don't want to type it here, cause this channel gets logged
[04:31] <edbian> Ben64, Ic ic  I supposed I could look at the man page?
[04:31] <Ben64> and spam = bad
[04:31] <edbian> Ben64, PM it to them
[04:31] <Ben64> edbian: you could, it's probably no help
[04:32] <Voss_> You cant put xubuntu on a 2001 computer? Sure you can as long as it has at least 512mb of memory
[04:32] <Ben64> edbian: oh yeah, duh lol
[04:32] <daus> !help
[04:32] <privatehuff> my mind corrects your name to "debian"
[04:32] <edbian> Ben64, I'm saving that pastebin for my personal use
[04:32] <vlt> kinja-sheep, te: I want to use this notebook for firefox (or similar) and thunderbird only.
[04:32] <zahmed> @Cpudan80: export doesnt help
[04:32] <Ben64> edbian: with great power comes great responsibility
[04:33] <Ben64> i'm just sad theres no xorg.conf in 9.10, dunno how to fix stuff there
[04:33] <asdfqwer> asdf
[04:33] <Cpudan80> zahmed: should, what exactly are you typing ?
[04:33] <paragonc> grrr im getting this when i run fdisk -l
[04:33] <paragonc> Disk /dev/sdb doesn't contain a valid partition table
[04:33] <te> vlt: You could just run X with no window manager.
[04:33] <Voss> vlt, so whats the problem?
[04:33] <edbian> Ben64, I think it will read from it if you add one right?
[04:33] <kinja-sheep> vlt: That is fine. :)
[04:33] <paragonc> but when it automounts it shows all my partitions
[04:33] <paragonc> but it doesnt mnt hfs properly
[04:33] <Ben64> edbian: not sure, haven't tested that yet
[04:34] <scunizi> paragonc: hfs is the apple file sys isn't it?
[04:34] <tsuna27> how do i get a networkmanager back i removed it from my panel and I cant get it back even with the "add to panels thing" how do i re add it?
[04:34] <paragonc> scunzi - yes
[04:34] <Psinetic> Ubuntu 9.10 64bit, playing a new DVD, it says "cannot read from source", so i go to eject it, and it won't come out of the drive and is unmonted.
[04:35] <Cpudan80> Psinetic: type "eject -r" on the command line
[04:35] <Voss> psi, restart your computer and eject manually
[04:35] <zahmed> Cpudan80:i type export x="/home/zubair/Pictures/Photos/sample/one folder/one file" ...then... file "$x" gives error
[04:35] <scunizi> paragonc: I'm not sure but I believe that isn't really supported 100%.. kinda like ntfs.. although I believe they've done a much better job at reverse engineering ntfs
[04:35] <Cpudan80> zahmed: the error being?
[04:36] <Cpudan80> zahmed: might need to do export x='abcde' (single ')
[04:36] <Psinetic> Cpudan80, i did that, and it gave me: eject: unable to eject, last error: Input/output error.....guess i'll have to restart the computer
[04:36] <Cpudan80> hmm
[04:36] <Cpudan80> strange
[04:36] <Ben64> vlt: open a terminal and type this "mount | grep "on /\ " | grep -o ^........ | xargs -n1 -i sudo hdparm -t {}"
[04:37] <Psinetic> Cpudan80, yes very strange indeedlydeed
[04:37] <edbian> Ben64, +1  !  nice command!
[04:37] <Psinetic> shall return, rebooting
[04:37] <Ben64> edbian: i'm still a noob at regex :D
[04:37] <andrew_46> Psinetic: Try the same command as sudo
[04:38] <zahmed> Cpudan80: The error was about spaces in the filename getting broken when i double quite variable expansion it works. Thanks alot.
[04:38] <kheera> Ben64: what does {} mean?
[04:38] <zahmed> Cpudan80: double quote i mean
[04:38] <Cpudan80> zahmed: yeah - sounds right - glad it works
[04:38] <Ben64> kheera: it inserts into the command the output of the pipe into xargs
[04:38] <Cpudan80> kheera: variable substitution
[04:39] <teolicy> Hi. I'm running karmic on an Asus eee 1005HA. When I installed it, I installed various eee-specific utilities, which required the addition of two new repos to apt: statux.org and repos.eeebuntu.org. Both repos stopped working, with statux.org saying just: "Sorry, site closed". Anyone knows what gives? What's the best place to arm a vanilla karmic with eee goodness?
[04:39] <Ben64> basically the command i said is a fancy way of testing the speed of the boot drive
[04:39] <jhb1608> hello, I have a question on Empathy's yahoo issues, it won't let me connect to Yahoo, even my username and password is correct, is that a issue?
[04:39] <Ben64>  Timing buffered disk reads:  180 MB in  3.03 seconds =  59.43 MB/sec <-- my result
[04:39] <edbian> teolicy, I found an interesting distro today.  Based on 9.04 called "easypeasy"
[04:40] <freetown2> ggrrr, what starts NetworkManager in Jaunty?
[04:40] <edbian> teolicy, http://www.geteasypeasy.com/  worked great on my acer aspire 1
[04:40] <kheera> so would this delete each file in the directory?  ls | rm {}
[04:40] <teolicy> edbian, thanks, but I'd rather have vanilla 9.10 and add some eee goodness.
[04:40] <vlt> Ben64: You want to know the speed of my hd?
[04:41] <freetown2> blasted thing wipes out  resolv.conf and messes up the routing table each time i plug in a windows mobile phone
[04:41] <Ben64> vlt: correct
[04:41] <edbian> teolicy, NP,  good luck!  There is something in the ubuntu docs about it.
[04:41] <grendal_prime> damn it i need a screen saver that plays avis
[04:41] <Ben64> i had a problem last night where everything was slow, turned out DMA on the drive was off, was getting 3MB/s from it
[04:41] <teolicy> edbian, good idea, thanks again.
[04:41] <edbian> teolicy, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne
[04:41] <vlt> Ben64: 25MB/s
[04:41] <jhb1608> hello, I have a question on Empathy's yahoo issues, it won't let me connect to Yahoo, even my username and password is correct, is that a issue?
[04:42] <Voss> teolicy, I have a eee 900a , netbook remix 9.04 works fine on it
[04:42] <grendal_prime> actually mp4's now that i think about it
[04:42] <vlt> How can I enter grub menu?
[04:42] <edbian> teolicy, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC
[04:42] <haresh_> andrew_46,  nope i want a linux version of movie maker  i am trying to install from http://www.getdeb.net/install/lives/1.1.6-1~getdeb1 but i cant do so please guide me thanks
[04:42] <teolicy> edbian, the latter URL is what I probably need. Thanks!
[04:42] <mutew> Anyone have any experience with building kernel modules?
[04:43] <edbian> teolicy, no problem
[04:43] <freetown2> mutew, what are you building?
[04:43] <nameo0> in terminal what do i type in to get my harware info?
[04:43] <edbian> nameiner, lshw
[04:43] <mutew> I am writing a simple module to hook on to the system write() call.
[04:43] <edbian> nameiner, lspci
[04:43] <andrew_46> haresh_: Unfortunately I am not familiar with that prgram :(
[04:43] <freetown2> heh, missed both times edbian
[04:43] <freetown2> love tabs
[04:43] <edbian> nameo0, lshw lspci
[04:44] <jhb1608> hmm... guess I need to make my question more clearly. I encountered a network error to Empathy.
[04:44] <vlt> I want to change some boot params. How can I enter grub menu? I tried pressing ESC but it jumps directly to loading the kernel.
[04:44] <edbian> freetown2, ha ha, thanks, I wouldn't have even noticed if you hadn't said that
[04:44] <freetown2> mutew, hello? what modules are you trying to build?
[04:44] <andrew_46> haresh_: But I note that it is in the Karmic repository
[04:44] <edbian> vlt, you press 'e' to edit...
[04:44] <freetown2> edbian, heh, it's only because i have missed several times in the past
[04:44] <andrew_46> haresh_: sudo apt-get install lives
[04:45] <vlt> edbian: Doesn't work. I can't even see the menu. It just skips over it
[04:45] <mutew> freetown2: Creating a module of my own which is basically a hook onto the system write() call.
[04:45] <haresh_> sudo apt-get install lives
[04:45]  * freetown2 wants to nuke NetworkManager from orbit in Jaunty world.
[04:45] <haresh_> could not find it
[04:45] <edbian> vlt, Are you running ubuntu 9.10 with that new fangled grub 2??
[04:45]  * jhb1608 feels ignored again.
[04:45] <vlt> edbian: yes
[04:45] <andrew_46> haresh_: Are you running karmic?
[04:46] <jhb1608> it is not my first time feeling ignored in here
[04:46] <freetown2> mutew, er...but you need help on a Makefile?!?
[04:46] <haresh_> hardy
[04:46] <edbian> vlt, I can't help then :(  you need to edit the grub config file which is all sorts of different in the newest version :(  sorry
[04:46] <vlt> Ok, how to change the timeout value in grub.cnf (grub2)
[04:46] <vlt> ?
[04:46] <bleepbloop> i need help formatting my USB drive so i can use unetbootin on it to boot UNR 9.10 from it
[04:47] <te> ubottu: grub2 | vlt
[04:47] <zahmed> Cpudan80: another issue :) in the sequence of commands --> export x=$(sed -n '1p' buffy2)  [[here echo $x returns "/home/zubair/Pictures/Photos/sample/one folder/one file"]] ...now if i type  cp "$x" -t dest/ ..it says can't stat, no such file
[04:47] <freetown2> mutew, sorry, not tried to write me own kernel module. Can't help you there.
[04:47] <edbian> bleepbloop, You watch collegehumor.com??
[04:47] <freetown2> ubottu, how to nuke NetworkManager
[04:47] <mutew> freetown2: The makefile looks something like - http://pastebin.com/m251c3143
[04:47] <bleepbloop> edbian: nah
[04:47] <freetown2> ubottu, NetworkManager
[04:48] <edbian> bleepbloop, What is your nickname in reference too then?
[04:48] <freetown2> well if it is wireless then leave everything else alone blasted thing
[04:49] <jlongs2> any way I can mess with the refresh rates of my display?  it's running at 60Hz which I think is causing my problem (the screen is shifted to the right leaving 2 inches of black on the left)
[04:49] <freetown2> mutew, what errors are you running into? missing calls?
[04:49] <freetown2> mutew, missing references or something that is
[04:49] <Legendario> I am at karmic and can't make americas army work: ./armyops-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[04:49] <bleepbloop> edbian: nothing, I just came up with it a while ago.
[04:49] <te> jlongs2: What video card do you have?
[04:49] <edbian> bleepbloop, nevermind then.  Carry on! :)
[04:50] <mutew> freetown2: Invalid kernel configuration errors
[04:50] <jlongs2> I've tried setting modelines in xorg.conf with `cvt <xres> <yres> <refresh>` but that doesn't seem to take effect
[04:50] <mutew> freetown2: http://pastebin.com/m406ef539
[04:50] <jlongs2> te: radeon 3200, fglrx driver
[04:50] <jlongs2> hdmi
[04:50] <te> jlongs2: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution
[04:50] <Cpudan80> zahmed: that's strange
[04:51] <linux_stu> is xubuntu less resource-intensive than ubuntu?  noticeably so?
[04:51] <jlongs2> te: thanks, i'll play with xrandr
[04:51] <Cpudan80> zahmed: remove the " " around $x in thte cp command I think
[04:51] <ardchoille> linux_stu: yes
[04:51] <linux_stu> thanks ardchoille
[04:53] <zahmed> Cpudan80: removing quotes around $x breaks filename as it contains spaces
[04:53] <Cpudan80> oh - right
[04:54] <Cpudan80> zahmed: does dest exist?
[04:54] <zahmed> yep
[04:55] <freetown2> mutew, you are building against a vanilla kernel?
[04:55] <ae86-drifter> im having trouble configuring dual screens, its weird because it comes up SyncMaster in the x server settings but that is the monitor that doesnt work, when i open multiple monitor settings, it says i dont appear to have 2 screens, im using nvidia proprietory drivers
[04:55] <redIago> hey i screwed up and wrote a comment on a bug report that was stupid (my answer was three posts above me) is there anyway to get rid of the post?
[04:55] <redIago> for the sake of keeping it not spammy
[04:56] <ae86-drifter> redIago: just dont do it again... ;p
[04:56] <ae86-drifter> lol
[04:56] <redIago> lol
[04:56] <freetown2> mutew, you need to configure the kernel compilation first...just untarring is not enough
[04:56] <redIago> i feel stupid
[04:56] <redIago> im trying to get involved and im just making an ass out of myself
[04:56] <redIago> oh one more thing
[04:57] <redIago> i need to sign the code of conduct
[04:57] <redIago> how do i get my gpg key
[04:57] <ae86-drifter> redIago: which gpg key?
[04:57] <redIago> the one it says i need hang on let me find the page
[04:58] <ae86-drifter> redIago: did you add third party repositories?
[04:58] <Cpudan80> zahmed: hmm - dunno, there is #bash for scripting help
[04:58] <redIago> yeah the backtrack one
[04:58] <khelvan> Hi, I'm trying to use unetbootin to create a bootable USB key with Easy Peasy on it for my netbook, using Ubuntu Karmic Koala 64-bit, and I get this error (even though I have the repo version of udev installed): vol_id not found. This is required for either install mode. Install the "udev" package or your distribution's equivalent. - any ideas on how I can fix this?
[04:58] <ae86-drifter> well goto the backtrack site and get the key from there and add it
[04:59] <tos> how to i setup my servers firewall to block outgoing access to all ports on <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:59] <tos> do*
[04:59] <redIago> oh not the same thing i think
[04:59] <redIago> let me try to be more specific hang on
[04:59] <ae86-drifter> tos:  type ufw --help
[05:00] <ae86-drifter> redIago: you need to download the gpg key from backtrack and add it, you can do that through synaptic if you want
[05:00] <zahmed> ok me entering #bash
[05:00] <redIago> khelvan: have you tried the usb startup disk creator, it works better in my opinion
[05:00] <preecher> is they a program that can add files to a iso image
[05:00] <mutew> freetown2: This URL seems to have detailed steps - http://dinomite.net/2007/setting-up-ubuntu-for-building-kernel-modules/
[05:01] <ardchoille> preecher: an iso image is a finalized file system, you can't add files to it
[05:01] <Nautilus> anyone have a url for easy setup of samba so I can share a folder to my XP box?
[05:01] <tos> ae86: its saying this...
[05:01] <tos> root@ns:/usr/share/squirrelmail/src# ufw deny <IP_ADDRESS>:80
[05:01] <tos> ERROR: Port ranges must be numeric
[05:01] <preecher> ardchoille, thx
[05:02] <ardchoille> preecher: you can, however, extract the iso, add files and then build a new iso
[05:02] <thomasrjones> @tos iptables -A OUTPUT -o eth0 -j DROP
[05:02] <ae86-drifter> i think it would be more like ufw deny <IP_ADDRESS> -p 80, but im not sure, you will have to read the man
[05:02] <freetown2> mutew, those instructions do look like they will help you to get a source tarball for your current running kernel and have it prepped up for building modules
[05:02] <redIago> here we go on the launch pad site (i can send a link if you want) it wants me to register an openpgp key in order to sign the code of conduct
[05:03]  * freetown2 hopes ufw is WAY better than NetworkManager
[05:03] <thomasrjones> my example drops ALL outgoing packets and datagrams on the eth0 interface
[05:03] <freetown2> thomasrjones, not quite what tos wants though
[05:03] <preecher> ardchoille, o ok--thx
[05:04] <tos> iptables sounds right
[05:04] <freetown2> oh yeah it does!
[05:04] <ae86-drifter> redIago: if you open synaptic package manager, do you have the backtrack key added (different from the repository)
[05:04] <thomasrjones> thats what he said......drop outgoing access to ports on an interface
[05:04] <freetown2> nothing like building your own rules...
[05:04] <freetown2> the only problem is making them run on boot up
[05:04] <freetown2> stuffing them in /etc/network/interfaces is a start...
[05:05] <redIago> nvm figured it out
[05:05] <thomasrjones> ufw is just a interface to iptables
[05:05] <HTT-Bird> ok, what would cause apt to just go wonky and not see/be able to install packages?
[05:05] <freetown2> thomasrjones, the question is, is it any good?
[05:05] <ae86-drifter> you can get a GUI for UFW
[05:05] <thomasrjones> is what any good?
[05:05] <freetown2> liike, does it just stuff all rules into one big chain
[05:06] <HTT-Bird> freetown2: for a simple 2-minute firewall, ufw/gufw more than suffices
[05:06] <airtonix> wtb nick prefixes on messages.
[05:06] <HTT-Bird> if you need to do fancy stuff, you might want something more sophisticated
[05:06] <thomasrjones> the structure of a firewall is just that...cisco....sonic....ms...iptables
[05:06] <freetown2> HTT-Bird, that is not the point. ufw is also the only 'convenient' way to get rules loaded on bootup
[05:06] <ae86-drifter> freetown2: if you look at your IP tables, you will see what it does
[05:07] <redIago> is there any way to install lucid from the desktop disk without installing grub or grub 2?
[05:07] <thomasrjones> they all are a ruleset.....u have to determine the most appropriate structure for ur situation
[05:07] <HTT-Bird> redIago: I take it you already have a working grub on your box?
[05:07] <freetown2> thomasrjones, i create chains for tcp/udp/icmp packets and more chains for high traffic protocols like smtp on a mailserver
[05:07] <redIago> no i have Chameleon
[05:07] <redIago> its a hackint0sh lol
[05:07] <HTT-Bird> redIago: hmmm...never heard of that bootloader, maybe that's why :)
[05:08] <redIago> it recognises linux fine
[05:08] <HTT-Bird> sry, never dealt with a hackint0sh in my life, have never touched a mac with anything newer than a g4 in it either :) so won't be able to help you in this case
[05:08] <thomasrjones> ur r incorrect freetown2
[05:08] <freetown2> thomasrjones, branching out to ensure packets go through a minimum no. of rules before hitting something
[05:08] <redIago> i know what i need, i just need to not install grub
[05:08] <thomasrjones> smtp is encapsulated in tcp...
[05:08] <freetown2> thomasrjones, ufw does not provide for startup?
[05:08] <redIago> and i have a desktop install disk to work with
[05:09] <redIago> the hackint0sh part is irrelivant
[05:09] <thomasrjones> u have to issue service startup like any other service on ur system
[05:09] <freetown2> thomasrjones, sigh. all tcp go to tcp_packet chain. if it is smtp, pass on to smtp_packet chain, otherwise continue.
[05:09] <airtonix> redIago, not quite, because you'll need to modify its bootloader in order for it to provide you with a choice of which OS to boot.
[05:09] <friendishan> how do i install java? it asks for root password if i input su. i am unable to change my root password through administration . i change it and then i input that password it says authetication failure
[05:09] <thomasrjones> u r still incorrect freetown2
[05:09] <thomasrjones> geez....
[05:09] <freetown2> thomasrjones, yawn.
[05:09] <airtonix> !sudo | friendishan
[05:10] <airtonix> !enter | thomasrjones
[05:10] <ae86-drifter> friendishan: ????
[05:10] <HTT-Bird> freetown2: you could write a 5 minute shell/Python/Perl/... init-script to take care of it if ufw doesn't fit the bill
[05:10] <IdleOne> !java | friendishan
[05:10] <airtonix> !info restricted-extras | friendishan
[05:10] <thomasrjones> a packet is such.....ethernet -> ip -> tcp -> smtp
[05:10] <airtonix> !find restricted
[05:10] <friendishan> ok thanks everyone
[05:10] <thomasrjones> how does smtp get routed before tcp?
[05:10] <airtonix> !info ubuntu-restricted-extras | friendishan
[05:11] <freetown2> HTT-Bird, or stick them into interfaces...i mean, the scripts COULD make use of iptables save like RHEL/Fedora does....
[05:11] <HTT-Bird> freetown2: yeah, eni can be used too
[05:11] <HTT-Bird> and iptables save is another possibility
[05:11] <freetown2> but i guess this is getting offtopic, i'll drop this
[05:11] <thomasrjones> if the tcp encapsulation is removed first?
[05:11] <HTT-Bird> if you feel like hacking something up go right ahead :)
[05:11] <thomasrjones> it would always default t ip or tcp chain
[05:12] <freetown2> HTT-Bird, er...but with NetworkManager messing about...i am not so sure i'd want to try...i'd have to dig deep i suspect to get something working properly
[05:12] <HTT-Bird> freetown2: NetworkManager can run pre/post up/down scripts
[05:13] <ae86-drifter> HTT-Bird: why not edit interfaces file
[05:13] <freetown2> HTT-Bird, cool, wonderful...and it can mess things up too. like wiping out resolv.conf and changing the default route whenever i plug in my windows mobile phone
[05:13] <HTT-Bird> ae86-drifter: I never said eni wasn't an option :)
[05:13] <HTT-Bird> (eni being short for /etc/network/interfaces :)
[05:13] <friendishan> any tweak in karmic to increase internet speed (i have 128kbps)
[05:14] <freetown2> HTT-Bird, and eni used to use iptables save?
[05:14] <freetown2> aw
[05:14] <ae86-drifter> lol
[05:14] <Troggie> hi all. I am running Ubuntu 9.04 how do i install the latest Openssl and apache2
[05:14] <HTT-Bird> freetown2: *is still scratching head @ your network configuration :o*
[05:14] <ae86-drifter> Troggie: omg
[05:14] <Troggie> what?
[05:14] <freetown2> friendishan, you could try traffic shaping to make certain protocols more responsive
[05:14] <paragonc> if i only have 1 partition - and i reinstall from dvd - will it overwrite all my files even if i dont format?
[05:14] <freetown2> friendishan, but not faster
[05:15] <paragonc> or will it only over write the system files?
[05:15] <HTT-Bird> friendishan: yeah, QoS/traffic shaping can help set priorities so important stuff gets through first
[05:15] <Troggie> I can't exactly install 9.10 cause RAID 1 doesn't boot after install
[05:15] <friendishan> freetown2 ok, but i am looking for the tweak i had done in jaunty which increased my net speed
[05:15] <freetown2> HTT-Bird, br0 using dhcp to save with Windows instance. plugging a phone will get NetworkManager all worked up
[05:16] <HTT-Bird> Troggie: try karmic-backports or using a deb-src line from karmic (basic procedure is described in '/msg dpkg simple sid backport')
[05:16] <friendishan> this will be any help for me ? http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-251509.html
[05:16] <HTT-Bird> Troggie: if karmic is too old, you'll need uupdate
[05:16] <freetown2> friendishan, huh? 128k will not become 1mbit no matter what tweak you use...
[05:16] <HTT-Bird> but I have to go
[05:16] <tos> ok so i did this...  iptables -A OUTPUT -o eth0 -j DROP -d <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:16] <tos> and it worked blocking http to <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:16] <freetown2> ciao HTT-Bird
[05:16] <Troggie> thank u
[05:16] <tos> but now i cant get out to the net
[05:16] <HTT-Bird> o/
[05:16] <friendishan> freetown2 yup i know but will it make a difference for me?
[05:17] <freetown2> friendishan, that depends on whether something like ssh is more important to you or downloading...if you are more into downloads...then probably not
[05:18] <TheRocK|> tos: You have to accept some outgoing ports to access the web.
[05:18] <freetown2> tos, i suspect you are blocking everyting, not just everything to <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:18] <friendishan> freetown2 anyway to increase my downloading speeds (yea i am  more into downloads)
[05:18] <freetown2> tos, that -d <IP_ADDRESS> should be before the -j DROP
[05:19] <tos> just trying to block shell users from accessing my 2wire status page which is the router @ <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:19] <freetown2> friendishan, are you not able to max out the 128k line?
[05:19] <friendishan> freetown2 nope i used to get 30kbps as download speed in jaunty now i get 20kbps
[05:19] <Me> hi there is Troggie, sorry about that
[05:19] <freetown2> tos iptables -A OUTPUT -d <IP_ADDRESS> -j DROP will do it
[05:20] <freetown2> tos, but do a replace on the rule you have instead
[05:20] <tos> got it, but that also was my dns
[05:20] <tj83> can someone tell me how to change my hostname on a ubuntu machine post install?
[05:20] <tos> so i had to change my dns to my ip
[05:20] <tos> and it worked!
[05:20] <tos> thanks
[05:20] <Guest45328> When i did a fresh Install of Ubuntu 9.10, after the reboot, it said it waited too long for the kernel, i read on the internet about that happening with RAID1. So how do i fix that
[05:20] <TheRocK|> tos: But if your router is blocked you can't access the web anymore.
[05:21] <bastid_raZor> tj83: /etc/hostname  make changes here
[05:21] <tj83> bastid_raZor, ty
[05:21] <tos> its working
[05:23] <ae86-drifter> tos: i normally change my router listen pot in the actual router config
[05:23] <tos> iptables -A OUTPUT -o eth0 -j DROP -d <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:23] <tos>   is what worked
[05:23] <tos> yeah but att routers dont let you
[05:23] <tos> the 2wires
[05:23] <tos> SUCK
[05:23] <friendishan> and some change in a file to get better video quality
[05:23] <friendishan> epinky
[05:24] <ae86-drifter> tos: oh, well that does suck
[05:24] <Guest45328> When i did a fresh Install of Ubuntu 9.10, after the reboot, it said it waited too long for the kernel, i read on the internet about that happening with RAID1. So how do i fix that
[05:24] <tos> so this is the alternative
[05:24] <tos> :/
[05:24]  * freetown2 smashes NetworkManager with a big ten ton hammer.
[05:24] <friendishan> any change in a file to make video quality better ? (i had this in jaunty)
[05:24] <Shtl_> i am getting this error http://pastebin.com/m7bf56527 can any one help me plz?
[05:24] <freetown2> okay, that's better. ciao all
[05:25]  * friendishan .
[05:25] <ae86-drifter> friendishan: video quality of what?
[05:25] <giantpune> hey.  does remastersys copy all drives?  or just the partition that ubuntu is installed to?
[05:25] <friendishan> ae86-drifter video quality of movies , etc
[05:26] <friendishan> !find tweak
[05:26] <bastid_raZor> Shtl_: root is not enabled in ubuntu.
[05:27]  * friendishan needs to increase his video quality :)
[05:27] <Richard_Simmons> I do believe something on my server just crashed. It was set, with a GUI, to share a drive with cifs. the server is up, I'm SSH'd in. I can view the drive, I can use it. but the cifs share is down..how can I restart that without restarting the computer?
[05:27] <ae86-drifter> friendishan: make sure u have codecs and video card drivers installed.. thats about it
[05:27] <tos> bastid, could do a 'sudo su''
[05:27] <friendishan> ae86-drifter yup i do have but there was some file to edit which i done in jaunty which increased my video quality (i guess it was on ubuntu's site)
[05:27] <patrooper> why can't my printer work , since I upgraded ??
[05:28] <bastid_raZor> Richard_Simmons: if you have  it mount from fstab you could: sudo mount -a   ..that will mount everything that is not mounted in fstab
[05:28] <ae86-drifter> friendishan: i think that would be application specific
[05:28] <ae86-drifter> friendishan: try using vlc media player
[05:29] <Richard_Simmons> bastid_raZor the drive is mounted on the server. CIFS crashed on it, so it isn't -sharing- it for me to mount it locally.
[05:29] <friendishan> ae86-drifter yup i using that
[05:29] <giantpune> ok.  well i think i just got my answer.  it made a ISO in under 5 minutes.  and i have 5TB worth of extra drives, so i dont think it crammed all 5TB into the ISO
[05:29] <Richard_Simmons> samba crashed* I think
[05:29] <friendishan> ae86-drifter the file i edited had this at the end # Line commented out by installer because it failed to verify:
[05:29] <friendishan> deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty-security restricted main multiverse universe
[05:29] <friendishan> # deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu intrepid-security multiverse
[05:29] <ae86-drifter> that is your sources.list file
[05:30] <ae86-drifter> it has nothing to do with videos
[05:30] <patrooper> I upgraded to 9.10 , and my printer is not responding , any help out there ???
[05:30] <friendishan> ae86-drifter yup that was it i edited that and it increased all the display quality
[05:30] <bastid_raZor> friendishan: you have two different versions in your sources. that is a great way to break things.
[05:30] <ardchoille> friendishan: what are you running? Intrepid?
[05:30] <ae86-drifter> friendishan: NO it didnt.
[05:30] <bastid_raZor> Richard_Simmons: restart samba?
[05:31] <Dasda> hi guys, is there any way to convert a hd video to sd video? i have a old laptop that can not play hd video well
[05:31] <friendishan> aedchoille : nope karmic (what's intrepid)
[05:31] <friendishan> !intrepid
[05:31] <Dasda> i found a program for windows, but wondering if any ubuntu apps are capable of accomplishing the same thing
[05:31] <ardchoille> friendishan: Then you shouldn't have any souces besides karmic in your sources file. Mixing sources from various releases will break things
[05:31] <anonbadger> name it
[05:31] <Nautilus> aha, I figured out how to setup folder sharing to my XP box, but now I get "access denied" (from the xp side) when trying to copy files there. Suggestions?
[05:31] <Richard_Simmons> bastid_raZor yes.. exactly how do I do that?
[05:32] <ae86-drifter> friendishan: your repository sources has nothing to do with video quality, editing that file wont do anything to your quality
[05:32] <friendishan> ae86-drifter yea it actually did (i had broken something and my totem wasn't loading so someone told me to do this and it increased the display quality and fixed the video problem (also VLC all other with video))
[05:32] <Nautilus> I have "allow others to write files here" checked
[05:32] <ae86-drifter> friendishan: yno, it actually didn't
[05:32] <bastid_raZor> Richard_Simmons: my guess is: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[05:32] <friendishan> ardchoille: no it was the back-up when i updated that file
[05:33] <Ben64> Dasda: mencoder can do that
[05:33] <ae86-drifter> friendishan: maybe its something that you installed AFTER adding the repository
[05:33] <Richard_Simmons> bastid_raZor thanks. trying it
[05:33] <friendishan> ae86-drifter maybe
[05:33] <ardchoille> friendishan: well you need to take all non Karmic sources out of your sources.list file
[05:33] <Dasda> Ben64, thanks. Ill read into that now. thank you
[05:33] <ardchoille> friendishan: and then sudo apt-get update
[05:33] <Ben64> Dasda: what cpu/speed is the laptop
[05:34] <danny> what program can i use to record playing playing audio? other than audacity
[05:34] <friendishan> ardchoille: i haven't changed the source.list file after my karmic's fresh install :)
[05:34]  * friendishan has to go
[05:34] <ae86-drifter> friendishan: i have a feeling you need to update or enable your video card driver... just a feeling.... as VLC uses its own codec files
[05:34] <Dasda> Ben64, intel celeron M Processor 370 (1.5ghz, 400mhz FSB, 1MB L2 Cache) <---- thats what the label says
[05:34] <AegNuddel> I was having that file system not mounting error but managed to get back in...found some stuff online.  No one could tell me anything about that here.  Now I can get back in, but my mouse won't move.  The fix to this is probably much simpler.  Anyone know wht s going on
[05:34] <Guest45328> ae86-drifter, When i did a fresh Install of Ubuntu 9.10, after the reboot, it said it waited too long for the kernel, i read on the internet about that happening with RAID1. So how do i fix that
[05:34] <friendishan> ae86-drifter ok
[05:35] <Ben64> Dasda: what type of hd video?
[05:35] <ae86-drifter> Guest45328, have you got a RAID setup? if not then that is totally irrelavent
[05:35] <miked595> sounds like a netbook
[05:35] <Dasda> Ben64, .wmv  I can change format if needed but i basically need it reduce the frame rate or w/e it is so it play in sync
[05:35] <Jacolyte_> My question is here: http://superuser.com/questions/88027/right-control-key-mapped-as-multi-key-in-ubuntu
[05:36] <Troggie> yeah ae86-drifter, hardware RAID setup on the controller
[05:36] <HFSPLUS> How big should my VHD be?
[05:37] <AegNuddel> Is there any reason my mouse driver would stop responding?
[05:37] <Dasda> Ben64. have you ever done that or know a command for mencoder to do that?
[05:37] <HFSPLUS> VHD is virtualbox
[05:37] <ae86-drifter> Troggie: sorry, i dont know much about RAID
[05:38] <te> AegNuddel: Mouse freezes?   I am trying to make the video to sd if possible
[05:39] <Ben64> CloudGT4: depends, ask your question
[05:39] <AegNuddel> te?
[05:39] <miked595> i play 720p mkv on my acer one
[05:40] <mezquitale> danny, you didnt like audacity?  what do you want the program to do, like what feature audacity lacked?
[05:40] <CloudGT4> i have Utorrent 1.7.7
[05:40] <CloudGT4> but i have to upgrade it
[05:40] <CloudGT4> however everything i try wont install right
[05:40] <kjcole> Any dd experts? "dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=/dev/sda conv=notrunc" started three hours ago still running.... ( 4gb SDHC cards at both ends.)
[05:40] <ae86-drifter> CloudGT4: thats not a linux app, try windows suport

[05:40] <anees> Doubt in TRANSMISSION  ( Bit torrent client) - Hi, I am new to Ubuntu. I was downloading a movie using Transmission, after 67% downloaded its status changed to Idle and stop downloading the movie. I checked the peers it’s still connected to 8 peers. Can anyone help!
[05:40] <Dasda> Ben64, thanks, ill wait
[05:40] <CloudGT4> it runs through wine.
[05:41] <ae86-drifter> CloudGT4: dont use utorrent, try rtorrent
[05:41] <danny> mezquitale: audacity records but you can still hear the noice from the mic....i need a program that will record directly from the audio thats playing ...like straight from the audio card
[05:41] <fidin> on my LAN how can i make it so my linux computer is named 'foo' and then connect to it from other computers by using the name 'foo'?
[05:41] <CloudGT4> how would i get rtorrent?
[05:41] <Ben64> Dasda: what size do you want
[05:41] <CloudGT4> sorry to sound dumb, but i am very new to using ubuntu
[05:41] <ae86-drifter> CloudGT4: sudo apt-get install rtorrent
[05:41] <bastid_raZor> CloudGT4: then you don't want rtorrent. it is a cli only app
[05:42] <Dasda> ben64, you mean the result of finished file? size can be same as long as it plays
[05:42] <anees> Doubt in TRANSMISSION  ( Bit torrent client) - Hi, I am new to Ubuntu. I was downloading a movie using Transmission, after 67% downloaded its status changed to Idle and stop downloading the movie. I checked the peers it’s still connected to 8 peers. Can anyone help!
[05:42] <AegNuddel> I feel smrt
[05:42] <ae86-drifter> bastid_raZor: really? when i installed rtorrent it came with a GUI which highly resembles the windows uTorrent..
[05:42] <mezquitale> danny, so basically you just want to edit music that is already in your computer?
[05:42] <AegNuddel> I got my computer running excep for the mouse
[05:43] <AegNuddel> except
[05:43] <ae86-drifter> bastid_raZor: maybe im just weird
[05:43] <kinja-sheep> ae86-drifter: What GUI?
[05:44] <anees> Hi
[05:44] <danny> hmmm not really...but like you go to a website and you have flash-based player playing a track....that what im trying to record....
[05:44] <ae86-drifter> kinja-sheep: its a front end for rtorrent, im not sure as i dont use it, but it gave me an rtorrent option in my menu!
[05:44] <anonbadger> http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/sound/ danny perhaps something here
[05:44] <AegNuddel> Is there a way to diagnose mouse problems?
[05:44] <AnirbanHazra> Can I install ffmpeg package in Ubuntu Hardy ? There is no ref to Hardy in this page ! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ffmpeg
[05:44] <anees> Can anyone help about Transmission

[05:44] <ardchoille> !info ffmpeg hardy
[05:44] <miked595> anyone ever use iTerm on mac?
[05:45] <anonbadger> anees: what seems to be the problem?
[05:45] <ardchoille> AnirbanHazra: ^^
[05:45] <bastid_raZor> ae86-drifter: the GUI is not included with just rtorrent
[05:45] <happylol> is there anyway of using IE7 on jaunty?

[05:45] <mouathms> Hello
[05:46] <ae86-drifter> bastid_raZor: i'm not sure then, well i istalled it through synaptic a long time ago, theres one there im not sure what the GUI is actually called, cant remember sorry
[05:46] <Ben64> Dasda: see if that works
[05:46] <kinja-sheep> anees: Check the torrent site. Maybe those are just leechers and no seeders.
[05:46] <mezquitale> danny, lets go to #ubuntustudio
[05:46] <Dasda> ben64, k 1 sec
[05:46] <danny> ok...on my way....

[05:53] <Chrysalis> hmm, why is the buntu hosts.deny file empty?
[05:53] <khelvan> redIago - No I have not tried, it, I was using easy peasy's installer, which uses netbootin.
[05:53] <Chrysalis> ... by default
[05:55] <maco> Chrysalis: because we cant know what you want to put in there?
[05:55] <bastid_raZor> Chrysalis: what should ubuntu block? by default ..
[05:57] <Jacolyte> http://superuser.com/questions/88027/right-control-key-mapped-as-multi-key-in-ubuntu
[05:57] <Chrysalis> bastid_raZor, everything
[05:57] <Chrysalis> ALL: ALL: DENY
[05:58] <Chrysalis> any sane distro does that
[05:59] <kjcole> Anyone see why "dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=/dev/sdb conv=notrunc" should run forever? (Two 4GB SDHC cards, one via a USB converter.)
[05:59] <valindil89> hey guys what is pulseaudio? it is using 2.7 GiB of memory...
[06:00] <kinja-sheep> !pulseaudio | valindil89
[06:00] <i_is_broke> valindil89, its part of sound
[06:00] <i_is_broke> valindil89, should not be using that much memory tho
[06:00] <maco> valindil89: sound server... possibly those 2.7 are including an audio encoding application or something??
[06:00] <valindil89> i_is_broke, any idea why it is using tha tmuch memory?
[06:01] <kjcole> valindil89: It's a pain in the ass. ;-) However, it's become a standard pain in the ass. ;-)
[06:01] <valindil89> wonderful
[06:01] <valindil89> so its a memory leak then?
[06:01] <maco> kjcole: hi kevin. trying to get crimsun annoyed at you?
[06:01] <sleepy-cat> any community for evolution mail related
[06:01] <i_is_broke> valindil89,well im using it and i am only using 255 meg and im running amarok on top of it.
[06:01] <maco> valindil89: yes it seems you've found one
[06:02] <i_is_broke> valindil89, so i would say yeah you have a memory leak.
[06:02] <valindil89> ok, so what do I do to fix this?
[06:02] <maco> valindil89: i would suggest filing a bug, but unfortunately i dont know what information to include and the audio guy is in bed
[06:02] <maco> valindil89: you can kill it and restart it to free the memory
[06:02] <i_is_broke> valindil89, have you tried stopping it and restarting it?
[06:03] <ska> scunizi:
[06:03] <valindil89> my system is locking up now...
[06:03] <i_is_broke> valindil89, open up terminal do ps -e and kill it
[06:04] <valindil89> killed
[06:04] <Koganei> so can anyone explain to me the quick and dirty way to find a file on your system? I've tried looking into 'find' but never really did understand how to make it work
[06:04] <Koganei> maybe I'm missing something really obvious here :o
[06:04] <unop> Koganei,  find /path/to/directory -name "*pattern*"
[06:05] <Koganei> and the pattern is regexed?
[06:05] <valindil89> where would i file a bug for pulseAudio?
[06:05] <maco> valindil89: ubuntu-bug pulseaudio
[06:06] <unop> Koganei, no, in this case, it's a shell glob pattern
[06:06] <unop> Koganei,  you can use a regex with:   find /path/to/directory -regex "regex"
[06:07] <Koganei> ah okay I see
[06:07] <Koganei> thanks
[06:07] <Koganei> I've been looking on and off for a couple of years now :P

[06:09] <i_is_broke> ?
[06:09] <pirogoeth> i know how to set up the stuff in gnome-display-properties
[06:10] <Kalic> hm, my swap is listed under 82 linux/swap
[06:10] <pirogoeth> but when i click apply after setting it up
[06:10] <pirogoeth> it freezes
[06:10] <pirogoeth> ive even put in my old xorg.conf before i upgraded
[06:10] <pirogoeth> but nothing works
[06:10] <dabomb69> I created a new partition (ext4 fs), added it to /etc/fstab, but I can't get it to mount via gui. (Getting error: 'You are not privilaged to mount the volume').  How do I fix this?
[06:10] <pirogoeth> and ive had to reboot about 5 billion times
[06:11] <i_is_broke> Kalic, ya i just did the command and seen that it marks swap..sorry
[06:11] <pirogoeth> :/
[06:12] <sleepy-cat>  i have re-installed my system to Ubutu 8.10 now i have taken the backup of evolution ie the .evolution folder i was having in home .. but now when i installed evolution on the new system.. it asked me for a new user account.. how can i restore to the earlier one
[06:12] <Iszak> anyone tried wubi on windows 7 64-bit?
[06:12] <datzy> hi, I installed phpmyadmin, but I can't access it from localhost/phpmyadmin  I might need to make a symbolic link to the real phpmyadmin dir.. Does anyone know where this is?
[06:14] <Kalic> seems it was part of the swap, alright, thanks.. stil have a long way to learn this :)
[06:14] <pirogoeth> i_is_broke, do you think you could help with my problem?
[06:15] <jam_> datzy: ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin
[06:15] <jam_> more than likely
[06:15] <i_is_broke> pirogoeth, sorry i havent tried setting up a dual monitor setup yet.
[06:15] <pirogoeth> oh
[06:15] <pirogoeth> :/
[06:16] <Troggie> When i did a fresh Install of Ubuntu 9.10, after the reboot, it said it waited too long for the kernel, i read on the internet about that happening with RAID1. So how do i fix that
[06:16] <pirogoeth> do you know where i could find some troubleshooting stuff?
[06:16] <jam_> pirogoeth: google?
[06:16] <pirogoeth> gah
[06:16] <jam_> lol
[06:16] <pirogoeth> ive already been dar
[06:16] <i_is_broke> pirogoeth, or ubuntu forums
[06:16] <pirogoeth> o.o
[06:16] <pirogoeth> oh
[06:16] <HFSPLUS> how do i defrag free space?
[06:16] <pirogoeth> forgot about those.
[06:16] <pirogoeth> :/
[06:17] <pirogoeth> hehehe
[06:17] <i_is_broke> HFSPLUS, you dont, that i know of.
[06:17]  * pirogoeth tests his copy of google chrome
[06:17] <pirogoeth> >:D
[06:17] <pirogoeth> oh wow
[06:18] <ardchoille> HFSPLUS: you don't need to defrag, the system does the housekeeping for you
[06:18] <pirogoeth> ^^ thats the reason i love linux
[06:18] <denon> So, I have a Jaunty server that's acting oddly. When I reboot it, only one of the static IPs is bound to the interface (defined in /etc/network/interfaces), the others are not. However, if I restart networking post-boot, they show up (in ifconfig)
[06:19] <denon> is there something I'm missing?
[06:21] <HFSPLUS> o
[06:22] <pirogoeth> wow
[06:22] <pirogoeth> google chrome works great on linux :D
[06:22] <devo> I'm trying to get wireless internet to work on a Dell Inspiron 1525, but I don't think the module is allowing me to scan for wireless access points.
[06:23] <kraitos> i need help cracking my rar file that i accidently lock out, i installed rarcrack but it doesn't seem to be working for me can anyone help me use rarcrack?
[06:23] <datzy> jam_: thanks, found it, got it working
[06:24] <jam_> sweet :)
[06:25] <Nautilus> I'm hoping someone can help with what should be a dumb Q... I've plugged in a thumb drive and see it right there under "Places" in File Browser, but I can't get to the files. left clicks do nothing nor do any right-click menu options. nothing.
[06:25] <Troggie> i_is_broke, When i did a fresh Install of Ubuntu 9.10, after the reboot, it said it waited too long for the kernel, i read on the internet about that happening with RAID1. So how do i fix that
[06:26] <devo> I need help omg... :'( How do I get this wireless to work?!
[06:26] <devo> The dumb iwconfig is all like no wireless extensions
[06:26] <srivishnureddy> hi any solution for the problem
[06:26] <ardchoille> !wireless | devo Have  you read this?
[06:27] <srivishnureddy> I upgraded my system after then the system asked me to restart but, the system is booting now is showing me the following message
[06:27] <srivishnureddy> 1. Mountall:symbol lookup error: mountall: undefined symbol: udev_monitor_filter_add_match_subsystem_devtype
[06:27] <srivishnureddy> 2. init:mountall main process(835) terminated with status 127

[06:27] <i_is_broke> Troggle, have no idea.
[06:27] <Troggie> thank you :)
[06:27] <devo> ardchoille, Yeah, I read some of it. Let me look again.
[06:27] <denon> no thoughts on interfaces on boot?
[06:29] <devo> ardchoille, Am I going to have to use Ndiswrapper?
[06:30] <ardchoille> devo: I don't know anything about wireless, I just thought that page might help
[06:30] <devo> ardchoille, I'm just trying to see if it's possible for wireless to even work on this from a LiveCD.
[06:30] <devo> Lol, darn.
[06:30] <devo> No bueno.
[06:30] <mooseburger> x crashed while I was playing a movie with VLC and now whenever I try to open a directory from my netbook remix desktop, it tries to open it with VLC.
[06:31] <Nautilus> please, can anyone help me get files off a thumb drive? I see the device in File Manager ubt can't open it.
[06:31] <Nautilus> s/ubt/but/
[06:31] <clearblood> windows vista sucks
[06:31] <sleepy-cat> mooseburger,  i think you can change the default option to open the directory
[06:32] <sleepy-cat> just right click and properties.. i think it should be somewhere there
[06:32] <jam_> nautilus: sudo gparted
[06:32] <jorge> wha wapen wine
[06:32] <joshua__> oh nice mooseburger
[06:33] <devo> What if I type 'sudo lshw -class Network' and my network controller comes up but doesn't have a logical name?
[06:33] <mooseburger> sleepy-cat, it works fine in nautilus, but in the files and folders tab it tries to use VLC. Right-clicking on the icons there only yields an open option.
[06:33] <joshua__> mooseburger: if I were you I would flip through the directories starting with ., renaming each one until you find the one that causes it to do that
[06:35] <raskolnikxix> hello

[06:39] <Adrian2MiL8> hi
[06:39] <i_is_broke> !ntel > pirogoeth
[06:39] <Adrian2MiL8> i have a little problem with my intrepid , anyone can help me ???
[06:39] <pirogoeth> o.o
[06:39] <pirogoeth> i_is_broke, huh>
[06:39] <pirogoeth> ?*
[06:40] <i_is_broke> pirogoeth, might look at the troubleshooting for intel on that i just sent you.
[06:40] <joshua__> you know, it might help to post small rescue cd's. Larger than the 10mb mini, but smaller than the install
[06:40] <pirogoeth> i_is_broke, i didnt get anything
[06:40] <pirogoeth> O.O
[06:40] <i_is_broke> !intel | pirogoeth
[06:41] <pirogoeth> kk
[06:41] <joshua__> say contains everything that the mini would always download + all drivers + core packages (everything required for installing the smallest bootable ubuntu)
[06:41] <Adrian2MiL8> hello ?? anyone ??
[06:41] <i_is_broke> joshua__, i think there is a mini hold on let me check.
[06:41] <jam_> Adrian: nobody here sorry
[06:41] <gbear14275> !ask | Adrian2MiL8
[06:42] <Adrian2MiL8> ok thanks
[06:42] <imbecilexix> #ubuntu
[06:42] <mooseburger> what's the software ubuntu netbook remix uses for it's desktop tabs? where do I configure it?
[06:42] <i_is_broke> joshua__, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[06:43] <joshua__> what I'm describing would probably way 100mb
[06:43] <i_is_broke> joshua__, i was reading about it the other day.
[06:43] <joshua__> this mini weighs 12mb and is not suitable even for chroot w/o the internet
[06:43] <i_is_broke> joshua__, im sorry misunderstood you , i thought you meant around 10 mb.
[06:44] <Adrian2MiL8> i recently upgrade hardy to intrepid , i have installed nvidia driver 180.29 from before manual form nvidia binary instaler , now i can't activate compiz effects in intrepid , but xserver work fine , scrren resolution itś ok and more
[06:44] <pirogoeth> i_is_broke, i read the troubleshooting, but my problem really wasnt stated
[06:44] <pirogoeth> both displays work fine
[06:44] <pirogoeth> but
[06:44] <i_is_broke> pirogoeth, then the only thing i can say is keep asking in the room every so often till someone comes in that might know.
[06:44] <pirogoeth> ok
[06:44] <i_is_broke> pirogoeth, but what?
[06:45] <pirogoeth> i dont remember
[06:45] <pirogoeth> o.o
[06:45] <Adrian2MiL8> another thing , anyone speak spanish ??
[06:46] <ardchoille> !es
[06:46] <ardchoille> The bot does :)
[06:47] <devo> Lol.
[06:47] <devo> Ugh.
[06:47] <devo> I can't believe this wireless doesn't work.
[06:47] <Adrian2MiL8> ok ubottu , only i as
[06:47] <devo> Only I as.
[06:47] <Adrian2MiL8> i ask only
[06:47] <gbear14275> Adrian2MiL8: I can tell you that you should use the nvidia driver that is installed from the "hardware Drivers" section of the administration menu
[06:48] <Humbucker> xP Bots are so cool. Once I will make my own for sure (no I won activate him in this channel..)
[06:48] <spO> is there a way to resize your ubuntu partition after you already installed ubuntu? i want to install windows using about 30gb of my ubutnu partition
[06:48] <gbear14275> spO: gparted
[06:48] <MrDudle> spO, i'd just create
[06:48] <i_is_broke> spO, yes by using gparted
[06:48] <MrDudle> a new partition
[06:48] <Adrian2MiL8> gbear >> but it 's the same 180.29 and if i upgrade to 185 maybe fix my problem ??
[06:48] <ardchoille> spO: you can use gparted from the livecd to resize
[06:49] <srv> i use ubuntu 9.10, the firefox app all of a sudden becomes grey and does not respond.
[06:49] <srv> anyone faced this issue
[06:49] <pirogoeth> brb, restarting x
[06:49] <spO> so i have to reboot from the cd huh
[06:49] <Nautilus> if I want to log in as root, how do I find out what the password is (or preferably, change it)?
[06:49] <i_is_broke> spO, yep
[06:49] <kinja-sheep> !noroot | Nautilus
[06:49] <ardchoille> spO: and if you install Windows after ubuntu, you will need to work on getting grub restored
[06:49] <AcBush> Hello Everyone
[06:50] <ardchoille> Nautilus: There is no need to log in as root, I haven't logged into the root account in 4 years of using ubuntu
[06:50] <Nautilus> kinja-sheep: but i want to use the computer
[06:50] <kinja-sheep> Nautilus: Use sudo -i instead.
[06:50] <spO> ardchoille, how do i do that?
[06:50] <i_is_broke> spO, which can be a pain.
[06:50] <gbear14275> Adrian2MiL8: perhaps... I just know installing video drivers manually is a complicated and might have lead to your problem
[06:50] <ardchoille> !fixgrub
[06:50] <ardchoille> spO: ^^
[06:50] <gbear14275> spO:  I'd say install windows inside virtualbox
[06:51] <Nautilus> kinja-sheep: I think I'm having a perms problem, cant figure it out. just want to move 3 files. dunno what else to do
[06:51] <gbear14275> spO:  What do you need windows for?  Performance or compatibility?
[06:51] <gbear14275> spO: or both?
[06:51] <spO> the ubuntu live cd is different from the ubuntu install cd?
[06:51] <Adrian2MiL8> gbear >> 180.29 i install manually in hardy
[06:51] <ardchoille> !sudo | Nautilus use sudo
[06:51] <kinja-sheep> Nautilus: sudo mv file newFile
[06:51] <spO> gbear, i cannot play some .rm files.... that are broken...and i tried fixing them...no go
[06:51] <gbear14275> Adrian2MiL8: use the hardware drivers tool... it may help
[06:51] <spO> ie, the sound and video are out of sync and nothing work
[06:51] <gbear14275> spO: Real media?
[06:51] <spO> yes
[06:51] <AcBush> I hate to be a bother, but I'm needing some "hand-holding" if you guys could be so kind...I boot to ubuntu and get grub immediately 1.97~beta4. Looks like grub2, I have 9.10. I know I need to edit my grub.cfg file (i think?) so I am on the liveCD right now but the grub.cfg file is read-only. Any suggestions?
[06:51] <gbear14275> spO: tried vlc?
[06:51] <spO> yes
[06:52] <kinja-sheep> Nautilus: You could do "gksudo nautilus" -- That way, you can move files in GUI!
[06:52] <spO> the livecd is different from the install cd?
[06:52] <Adrian2MiL8> gbear >> but the graphic card work ok , the only problem it's with compiz effects in intrepid , on hardy working fine before upgrade
[06:52] <gbear14275> spO: hmm ok not sure... but yeah I'd say if you need them that badly use virtualbox to host a windows vm
[06:52] <gbear14275> spO:  OR... if you need even more performance, try kvm
[06:53] <spO> gbear, virtual box? you mean wine?
[06:53] <gbear14275> spO:  assuming you have the hardware to support it... what computer are you running?
[06:53] <Fizix> AcBush, is it read-only simply because you're not sudo-ing to <insert your text editor here> when opening the file?
[06:53] <mooseburger> Is there any way to configure netbook-launcher? I think I can fix the problem I have with VLC if I can change it's "open with" setting.
[06:53] <cyros> hey guys im trying to install 9.10 on an old PIII i have laying around and i choose install ubuntu and it never goes through the install screens just to a login prompt ?
[06:53] <Nautilus> kingmanor: oh ok, love the gksudo nautilus idea
[06:54] <gbear14275> spO:  no WINE is a windows emulator.  virtualbox is a type 2 hypervisor.  It allows you to create a VM (Virtual Machine).  I can explain in more detail but you should PM me.
[06:54] <Nautilus> kinja-sheep: oh ok, love the gksudo nautilus idea
[06:54] <noble> Hello Everyone, I am experiencing a weird problem on my thinkpad T400 with ubuntu 9.10.
[06:54] <AcBush> Fizix, where can I find my Ubuntu partition? I know it is hd1,5 and I mounted it (it shows on desktop) but in terminal, how would I navigate there?
[06:55] <noble> It runs hot when running on AC power
[06:55] <spO> gbear, how do i install it
[06:55] <noble> however it cools to normal temp. on battery discharging
[06:55] <noble> please guide me in exploring this problem
[06:55] <gbear14275> Adrian2MiL8: try looking in the appearance menu item and enable compiz... I'm not sure how much I can help you... I don't use compiz
[06:55] <AcBush> Fizix, I know I am asking what seems like a dumb question to you all...
[06:56] <Fizix> AcBush, try /dev
[06:56] <spO> windows Virtual box will mean i won't have to reboot to run windows and i can run windows inside ubuntu huh
[06:56] <gbear14275> spO: yes
[06:57] <MindVirus> Does anyone know how to inspect the swap partition to see what processes are using it?
[06:57] <pirogoeth> i_is_broke, what i dont understand about this
[06:57] <Adrian2MiL8> gbear >> thanks , i try activate in appearance but not work now with intrepid
[06:57] <spO> i guess i will run kvm
[06:57] <Fizix> AcBush, try /dev/scda* | to be honest with ya, I'm quite the n00b myself so no worries! Perhaps someone else would be better qualified in telling you how to get to that partition via the terminal
[06:57] <AcBush> Fizix, Am I supposed to be trying to cd into the hard drive?
[06:57] <kinja-sheep> AcBush: You can find the path in Nautilus location on the mounted partition.
[06:57] <pirogoeth> i_is_broke: is that i can setup the monitors to be one on top and one below
[06:57] <pirogoeth> i_is_broke: but, i cannot set them side by side
[06:58] <pirogoeth> er
[06:58] <pirogoeth> brb
[06:58] <jofo_> à
[06:58] <Fizix> AcBush, kinja-sheep is right. I just looked at my partition through nautilus; mine is in /media/
[06:58] <pirogoeth> back
[06:58] <pirogoeth> i_is_broke: ^^^
[06:59] <gbear14275> spO:  Do you have the hardware support for kvm?
[06:59] <adtimus> hey can anyone tell me what i need to type in terminal to install a wireless driver for my laptop?
[06:59] <pirogoeth> lool
[06:59]  * pirogoeth dies
[06:59] <spO> gbear, yes
[07:00] <gbear14275> adtimus: what version of ubuntu are you using... most support the wireless drivers without additional commands now
[07:00] <diegoxmt> DOES ANYBODY NOWS HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITH THE NICK FOR AMSN OR EMESENE? IT DOESN'T CHANGE!!
[07:00] <Humbucker> I know :P
[07:00] <diegoxmt> DOES ANYBODY NOWS HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITH THE NICK FOR AMSN OR EMESENE? IT DOESN'T CHANGE!! PLEASE... THNX
[07:00] <Humbucker> Emesene
[07:00] <i_is_broke> !caps | diegoxmt
[07:00] <Humbucker> Install the personal message plugin
[07:00] <adtimus> i just got 9.10 and i have a older hp laptop but i forgot which of the 3 drivers i needed
[07:00] <pirogoeth> grrrrrrrrrrrrr
[07:00] <diegoxmt> sorry
[07:00] <gbear14275> spO:  I would do that then.  I do the same to run multiple distro's on my machine.  virt-manager is a nice gui start too
[07:00] <AcBush> kinja-sheep, I'm honestly not sure what exactly you mean by that. *sigh* I'm sorry...
[07:00] <optimizer> how do I tell ubuntu "hey the mouse is in my left hand; flip the buttons"
[07:00] <adtimus> i had 9.04 but i was having problems due to a improper shutdown and fsck wasnt completing
[07:01] <pirogoeth> i_is_broke: do you know where the gnome-display-properties settings file is stored?
[07:01] <agusj> is there any way to read ext4 filesystems
[07:01] <diegoxmt> Humbucker: the plugin for the emesene right?
[07:01] <kinja-sheep> AcBush: You see the partition on your Desktop, click on that. A Nautilus window will open.  Look at the path.
[07:01] <pirogoeth> brb
[07:01] <i_is_broke> pirogoeth, probably under preferences system settings
[07:01] <AcBush> kinja-sheep, It shows a bunch of numbers and letters.
[07:02] <gbear14275> agusj: the newer distro's use ext4 by default
[07:02] <Adrian2MiL8> i recently upgrade hardy to intrepid , i have installed nvidia driver 180.29 from before manual form nvidia binary instaler , now i can't activate compiz effects in intrepid , but xserver work fine , scrren resolution it's ok , look like a glx problem
[07:02] <optimizer> how do I tell ubuntu "hey the mouse is in my left hand; flip the buttons"
[07:02] <kinja-sheep> AcBush: /media/<bunch-of-num-and-letter> is your path, I believe.
[07:02] <i_is_broke> optimizer, under preference keyboard and mouse.
[07:02] <adtimus> gbear14275: i have ubuntu 9.10, i think it is a intel wireless card
[07:02] <AcBush> kinja-sheep, You are correct...thanks. Let me try that...
[07:02] <gbear14275> optimizer: go to System > preferences > mouse
[07:02] <Fizix> optimizer, Go to System->Preferences->Mouse and click on the box for left handed
[07:03] <optimizer> how do I tell ubuntu "hey the mouse is in my left hand; flip the buttons"; i'm running xmonad; what app do I run to do all this?
[07:03] <pirogoeth> i_is_broke, no i mean the actual settings file in the filesystem
[07:03] <gbear14275> adtimus: should work  out of the box
[07:03] <agusj> that's my problem, after installing older version ubuntu, I cannot be back to 9.10 and I dont know how to get my data
[07:04] <gbear14275> agusj: why did you install an older version?
[07:04] <cyros> hey guys im having trouble installing 9.10 on this old machine
[07:04] <AcBush> kinja-sheep, Are you familiar with the problem I am having (Ubuntu going straight to Grub?)?
[07:04] <cyros> is there a way to do alt install mode on the normal iso ?
[07:04] <adtimus> well this laptop's hd is kinda faling so i know im using a shitty laptop, however the device is not configured yet, and hardware drivers is empty
[07:04] <agusj> I just need older kernel that support my hardware
[07:04] <kinja-sheep> AcBush: I'm watching a movie. I'm not aware of your problem. I'm answering things occasionally. :o State your problem thouggh.
[07:05] <adtimus> gbear14275: well this laptop's hd is kinda faling so i know im using a shitty laptop, however the device is not configured yet, and hardware drivers is empty
[07:05] <agusj> is there any quick way to get back my data
[07:05] <i_is_broke> cyros, i dont think so you have to use the alt cd.

[07:05] <gbear14275> adtimus: I'm sorry... I'm not good enough to help you :-/
[07:06] <PeterFA> How do I integrate an Ubuntu download link to my page? Is there a certain clip that I can add to my website that's already done or what?
[07:06] <gbear14275> adtimus: I wish I could... but its over my head
[07:06] <adtimus> gbear14275: thanks for your concern and your help
[07:06] <Daughain> How do I get VLC to play dvds?
[07:06] <AcBush> kinja-sheep, I hope it's a not a good movie, or I'll feel like an ass. Heh. So, I have windows and ubuntu installed (brand new installation of ubuntu). When I boot up, it asks Windows or Ubuntu. I choose Ubuntu and it goes straight to Grub 1.97~beta4 (grub2, I think?). I've been reading and a suggestion was to edit the grub.cfg file to remove the lines that say search no floppy. I'm going to try that I guess...
[07:06] <kinja-sheep> PeterFA: Point it to www.ubuntu.com then.
[07:06] <pirogoeth> brb
[07:06] <i_is_broke> Daughain, did you install the codecs for it?
[07:07] <Daughain> i_is_broke, Prolly not. =)
[07:07] <adtimus> well my hardware drivers list is empty can anyone help?
[07:07] <MindVirus> Does anyone know how to inspect the swap partition to see what processes are using it?
[07:07] <kinja-sheep> AcBush: You might have better support in #gru
[07:07] <kinja-sheep> AcBush: #grub <---
[07:07] <i_is_broke> Daughain, try installing the ubuntu-restricted-extras
[07:07] <Daughain> i_is_broke, Ok, thanks.
[07:07] <PeterFA> kinja-sheep: I want a direct link that goes to the download page.
[07:07] <i_is_broke> Daughain, your quite welcome.
[07:08] <i_is_broke> PeterFA, so go to it and copy and paste.
[07:08] <pirogoeth> i thought i had it
[07:08] <pirogoeth> gar..
[07:08] <AcBush> Thanks

[07:08] <pirogoeth> does anyone here have a dual monitor setup?
[07:08] <pirogoeth> does anyone here have a dual monitor setup?
[07:08] <i_is_broke> pirogoeth, well at least you dont have it upside down and backwards yet.
[07:08] <adtimus> pirogoeth: i did but i stopped using them
[07:08] <gbear14275> pirogoeth: yeah
[07:09] <pirogoeth> gbear14275, can you help me out a bit then?
[07:09] <gbear14275> pirogoeth: whats your problem?
[07:09] <pirogoeth> i cant get my monitors to work
[07:09] <jam_> !networking | jam
[07:09] <gbear14275> pirogoeth: I'm sorry
[07:09] <pirogoeth> and im too dumb to do it in my xorg.conf
[07:09] <gbear14275> pirogoeth: what would you like from me?
[07:09] <kinja-sheep> AcBush: It is not a good movie but I enjoy war movies. The one I'm watching is from 1986. ;3  You could edit grub.cfg but that's not the recommended routine. It is intended to be a read-only file that are generated from few files.
[07:10] <gbear14275> pirogoeth: I would be too
[07:10] <pirogoeth> gbear14275: hopefully your xorg.conf and your monitors.xml file
[07:10] <agusj> is there any way to read ext4 from ubuntu 8.04
[07:10] <pirogoeth> let me switch to xchat

[07:14] <noble> anyone
[07:14] <nastas> hi all
[07:14] <nastas> noble: hi
[07:14] <noble> hi nastas, a quick question for you
[07:15] <noble> you have an ubuntu laptop ?
[07:15] <nastas> yes
[07:15] <noble> does it runs hotter when on the AC power compared to the battery discharge ?
[07:16] <nastas> i don't think so
[07:16] <noble> hm... i think this damn ubuntu on thinkpad t400 does then :(
[07:16] <nastas> you think that is ubuntu issue?
[07:16] <noble> i can feel the palm rest and the base hotter during the AC input
[07:16] <noble> yes
[07:16] <noble> as it doesn't do in Windoze
[07:17] <nastas> the AC input is the original?
[07:17] <noble> yes it is
[07:17] <noble> and it only happen in ubuntu
[07:17] <noble> i mean linux
[07:17] <noble> i haven't tried any other distro
[07:18] <Humbucker> lol
[07:18] <Tesssa> upgraded 9.4 to 9.10 the sound card works but shut the puter down restart it later and the sound is muted and i have two sound icons in the task bare both muted click on them and have to reset them then the sound works.It is ok if i only put the puter in hibernate why is this
[07:18] <noble> Tesssa, try the pulseAudio Device chooser
[07:19] <genoobie> hey
[07:19] <noble> hey
[07:19] <genoobie> I just installed xubuntu
[07:19] <noble> congrats :)
[07:19] <genoobie> but my PCMCIA wireless card is not recognized..
[07:19] <Tesssa> it is nvidia alsa mixer
[07:19] <genoobie> the driver is the acx driver
[07:19] <nastas> is it that hot that it makes you worry about?
[07:19] <noble> Tesssa, Ooops :p
[07:19] <genoobie> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsLinksys#WPC54G
[07:19] <pirogoeth> omg
[07:19] <genoobie> according to this
[07:20] <noble> nastas, it is uncomfortable
[07:20] <pirogoeth> i_is_broke: my screens are upside down and flipped.
[07:20] <genoobie> it's out of the box, but I can't get it started
[07:20] <pirogoeth> :/
[07:20] <genoobie> tips, suggestions?
[07:20] <noble> i mean i can't keep it on my lap, typing make the palm go hot. :(
[07:20] <pirogoeth> i failed
[07:20] <genoobie> noble, ideas?
[07:20] <Tesssa> though its just a ball ache having to demute them
[07:20] <noble> hm.. lets see genoobie
[07:20] <pirogoeth> brb
[07:21] <genoobie> I know I'll need ndiswrapper too for wpa support
[07:21] <genoobie> let me get the card started then I'll worry about ndis
[07:21] <noble> genoobie, you trying to connect to a WPA network ?
[07:21] <pirogoeth> ok
[07:21] <pirogoeth> back
[07:21] <pirogoeth> i_is_broke, ping
[07:21] <SETKEH> does anyone here play eve online ???
[07:22] <genoobie> yes, but the led's on the card are not even lit...
[07:22] <Tesssa> so if i choose pulse audio that should fix it ?
[07:22] <pirogoeth> oh
[07:22] <noble> dmesg probably give you some info
[07:23] <genoobie> hrm
[07:25] <genoobie> noble..
[07:25] <noble> nastas, you think HD is being over-accessed during AC power ?
[07:25] <pirogoeth> OMG
[07:25] <pirogoeth> OMG
[07:25] <pirogoeth> really?
[07:25] <pirogoeth> i got it
[07:25] <FloodBot4> pirogoeth: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:25] <pirogoeth> i ran the failsafe GNOME session
[07:25] <genoobie> what am I grep ing for.
[07:25] <SETKEH> does anyone here play eve online ???
[07:25] <noble> good point, genoobie. I would just go through it, it can't be more than 4 pages :p
[07:26] <frogzoo> SETKEH: linux users are smarter than that
[07:26] <DaZ> linux users can't play eve
[07:26] <DaZ> <3
[07:27] <genoobie> ugh, doesn't say anything about the PCMCIA
[07:27] <nastas> noble: no i don't think so
[07:27] <SETKEH> DaZ,  they can using wine they modifyed the windows binarly to be compatable with wine when they pulled the linux xlient
[07:27] <frogzoo> if you could hax0r kernel code inside the eve virtual world you might have something..
[07:27] <SETKEH> frogzoo,  aparently not
[07:27] <noble> genoobie, can u test in another OS that the card works ?
[07:27] <genoobie> yes, card works fine
[07:27] <noble> I would start from hardware troubleshooting first
[07:28] <genoobie> I could try another card..
[07:28] <borno> can any 1 help me about aMule?
[07:28] <noble> what is the make / model of your card
[07:28] <melik> borno: just ask your queestion.
[07:28] <genoobie> nah
[07:28] <pirogoeth> oh dear
[07:28] <genoobie> doesn't seem to matter
[07:29] <borno> how i can find a speedy link in aMule?
[07:30] <hacker_ubuntu> hello, I am new t Ubuntu and would like to know if there is any way I can open ooxml files such as docx or other formats of microsoft office 2007
[07:30] <genoobie> uncle
[07:30] <genoobie> see, at least with windows, this isn't really a problem
[07:30] <noble> hacker_ubuntu, Open office

[07:31] <SETKEH> hacker_ubuntu, np :D
[07:32] <genoobie> there's a guid that tells you which driver is borked
[07:32] <nastas> noble: your laptop is a thinkpad?
[07:32] <noble> yes nastas
[07:32] <z> hah
[07:32] <nastas> model?
[07:32] <noble> Thinkpad T400
[07:32] <z> i know what was preventing my dual screen setup from working
[07:32] <Guest11542> x3
[07:32] <pirogoeth> x3
[07:32] <pirogoeth> appearently
[07:32] <pirogoeth> i cant have any visual effects enabled
[07:33] <pirogoeth> when its setup like this
[07:33] <pirogoeth> but it worked just fine on 8.04 and 9.04
[07:33] <pirogoeth> :/
[07:34] <nastas> noble: i'm not sure how old is this link but just check it http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_control_fan_speed#Manual_mode
[07:34]  * pirogoeth submits bug report
[07:34] <noble> nastas, I tried that already system won't let me modify that file :(
[07:34] <genoobie> hrm
[07:34] <genoobie> wtf
[07:35] <genoobie> ugh
[07:35] <MindVirus> Hello. My baseline memory usage is 600MB. Can someone please suggest how to lower this number?
[07:35] <mneptok> MindVirus: http://linuxatemyram.com
[07:35] <noble> that is a funny domain name
[07:35] <mneptok> MindVirus: IOW, let the kernel manage your memory, and stop worrying about it
[07:36] <MindVirus> mneptok: Don't assume I don't know what I'm talking about.
[07:36] <MindVirus> -/+ buffers/cache:        621        377
[07:36] <MindVirus> This is not a normal memory usage.
[07:36] <alankila> MindVirus: run top, press M to sort by memory, what are near the top?
[07:37] <brutus> Hi, I have a Vista-Jaunty dual boot, but I cannot load Vista from GRUB- "BOOTMGR is missing, Ctrl-Alt-Del to restart"...how do I fix this?
[07:37] <alankila> M is shift+m, that is
[07:37] <MindVirus> alankila: A few programs that I will not close.
[07:37] <MindVirus> Namely, pidgin, dropbox, compiz.real, Xorg.
[07:38] <MindVirus> Chromium takes a rather big chunk of memory but that's not baseline so I don't consider that.
[07:38] <MindVirus> In total, the top 4 programs are running ~150MB.
[07:38] <MindVirus> Top 10 is ~200MB.
[07:39] <alankila> I'm not sure if the xorg and compiz memory usage is real memory of the graphics board memory... some of the X memory at least is that, could be that compiz's memory is too if it shares memory with X server
[07:39] <MindVirus> The rest are measured in kilobytes.
[07:39] <genoobie> would this  work with xubuntu?
[07:39] <genoobie> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5645
[07:39] <genoobie> trying to get my wlan to work properly
[07:39] <MindVirus> alankila: I don't understand.
[07:39] <alankila> MindVirus: never mind.
[07:39] <ardchoille> genoobie: you really need to ask in #xubuntu in order to get the best answer
[07:40] <MindVirus> alankila: Right-o.
[07:40] <genoobie> yeah, although I suspect as far as getting the card to be recognized it's probably the same
[07:40] <nastas> noble: what exactly is the output?
[07:40] <MindVirus> So, I don't get why so much of my memory is being used baseline.
[07:40] <genoobie> the ndiswrapper might be a little different
[07:40] <MindVirus> I really don't see how GNOME can be run with 256MB RAM.
[07:40] <alankila> I think my booted up Ubuntu uses about 500 MB of memory for the baseline stuff it's running... The real memory usage is 800 MB but 300 MB is going to Eclipse
[07:41] <MindVirus> (Though many people say they do.)
[07:41] <noble> nastas, 90W 20V
[07:41] <noble> it is the original came with the system
[07:41] <MindVirus> alankila: Why does Ubuntu use so much damn memory?
[07:41] <mneptok> MindVirus: swap helps for systems with low physical memory.
[07:41] <MindVirus> And is there any way to fix it?
[07:41] <alankila> MindVirus: long tail of small programs adds up, I guess.
[07:41] <mneptok> MindVirus: /etc/security/limits.conf or ulimit
[07:42] <MindVirus> mneptok: I mean, these systems run without swapping baseline.
[07:42] <alankila> my system has an amazing 171 tasks running
[07:42] <ardchoille> My Ubuntu Jaunty system atm: Total: 1002. Used: 315, Free: 687
[07:42] <alankila> it wasn't long ago that booted up linux ran with 50 tasks
[07:42] <i_is_broke> mine is 200 meg out of 2 gig.
[07:42] <chalcedny> i'm not used to using open office on vista.. i have ubuntu.. but i'm using this laptop. I was typing a document and carried the laptop into the kitchen and now it's in some weird mode that won't let me highlight anything .. how do i get it back? i can't save .. VERY few modes are available.. everything is grayed out, nobody is awake in #openoffice.org
[07:43] <FireCrotch> alankila: I'm sure you could set up a system with only 50 tasks running at boot
[07:43] <genoobie> okay okay
[07:43] <genoobie> I can't figure out a simple wireless card driver issue
[07:43] <genoobie> please, someone?
[07:43] <alankila> FireCrotch: yeah, like lubuntu. I'm seriously considering switching to lxde because gnome takes too long to start and generally doesn't do that much what I care about
[07:44] <noble> hm... genoobie so ubuntu doesn't see it at all ?
[07:44] <Koganei> is there a way to tunnel a usb device from one computer to another?
[07:44] <i_is_broke> <<<loves lxde.:D
[07:44] <noble> or does it see it and doesn't want to work with it due to driver mismatch ?
[07:44] <Koganei> like I want to plug my iPhone here, and it's recognized by another machine
[07:44] <genoobie> noble, when i plug and unplug....
[07:44] <MindVirus> How do I see how many tasks are running?
[07:45] <genoobie> it tells me a card is being ejected / inserted
[07:45] <mneptok> MindVirus: ps
[07:45] <noble> so it does see it
[07:45] <ardchoille> mindnull: ps
[07:45] <genoobie> supports d1/d2
[07:45] <genoobie> PME# disabled
[07:45] <MindVirus> 162 tasks.
[07:45] <kinja-sheep> MindVirus: htop is a nice tool.
[07:45] <ardchoille> MindVirus: top might be of interest as well
[07:45] <MindVirus> I use top all the time.
[07:45] <mneptok> htop > top
[07:45] <vader_> MindVirus: Top or HTop in a cmd window.
[07:45] <genoobie> noble it appears as if it is being "seen"
[07:46] <jaidormi> howdy
[07:46] <genoobie> so?
[07:46] <jaidormi> i was hoping someone might have an idea why a persistent usb boot would get broken by the synaptic updater
[07:47] <alankila> htop is nice, thanks
[07:47] <noble>  genoobie, does ifconfig shows it ?
[07:47] <genoobie> it doesn't seem like it
[07:48] <noble> it may just be disabled there :)
[07:48] <noble> genoobie, dmesg | grep wlan
[07:48] <noble> anything there ?
[07:48] <genoobie> nothing
[07:50] <genoobie> stupid wlan
[07:50] <genoobie> :)
[07:50] <i_is_broke> genoobie, try wlan up
[07:50] <psycho_oreos> genoobie, is this a 5V card? (you can see the info on the bottom side of the pcmcia card)
[07:50] <nastas> genoobie: give the output of lspci in pastebin
[07:50] <i_is_broke> then dmesg and see what it says.
[07:51] <genoobie> urgh... i_is_broke wlan up = no cmd wlan blah
[07:51] <ardchoille> mneptok: would there be any problem with alias top="htop" ?
[07:51] <genoobie> psycho_oreos, no info
[07:52] <psycho_oreos> genoobie, and there's no label on the card at all? what about lspci output? anything relevant about the network/wireless controller?
[07:52] <mneptok> ardchoille: only if htop is not installed :)
[07:52] <genoobie> funny psycho_oreos it's there
[07:53] <nastas> genoobie: could you give the lspci output?
[07:53] <ardchoille> mneptok: hehe, ok
[07:53] <psycho_oreos> genoobie, please pastebin the output
[07:53] <genoobie> okay..let me see...
[07:53] <fidin> can i use dnsmasq just for dns and not for dhcp? i already have dhcp set up in ubuntu
[07:54] <obaid> anybody good with sed
[07:55] <fidin> i'm ok with said sed
[07:56] <genoobie> ugh
[07:56] <genoobie> wtf
[07:56] <Landroid> hey guys
[07:56] <genoobie> why is the USB a read only fs
[07:56] <Landroid> I need help here
[07:56] <Koganei> hm what are the 1 and 2 gauges at the top of htop
[07:56] <rsk> !ask | lancetw
[07:56] <Landroid> so... I gave my friend ubuntu. its not recognizing his usb stick even though it is too
[07:56] <psycho_oreos> genoobie, you booted from USB and its read only?
[07:56] <rsk> gr.
[07:57] <psycho_oreos> Landroid, and what sort of usb stick are we talking about?
[07:57] <genoobie> no, I popped a usb drive in to try and copy the lspci output to pastebin
[07:57] <genoobie> but I can't write to it
[07:57] <psycho_oreos> genoobie, its probably the permissions, check mount
[07:57] <obaid> i have a txt file, each line is like this "123123123123    isup (0.002 abcabc).", i want to keep the first<PHONE_NUMBER>23 and remove the rest of the line
[07:57] <Landroid> lsusb shows linksys and everything it just has the wrong dev id
[07:57] <Landroid> but this even the problem
[07:58] <genoobie> psycho_oreos, nothing in mnt
[07:58] <genoobie> it's in "media"
[07:58] <psycho_oreos> Landroid, you haven't answered my question
[07:58] <psycho_oreos> genoobie, no no.. the command `mount' (without quotes)
[07:58] <marsilainen> obaid: use the command 'cut'
[07:58] <Landroid> sudo isn't working
[07:58] <Landroid> when I type sudo anything it says command not found
[07:59] <genoobie> psycho_oreos, it's calling the USB vfat
[07:59] <rsk> Landroid, seems you need to backtrack to the point of you braking it
[07:59] <ajhutton> Hey - I was wondering what I need to do to make my linux partition bootable again. On my macbook, I booted into OSX (from an external hard drive) and tried to resize a partition on my linux drive. Now it doesn't boot. I can mount it from gparted live cd and whatnot but i just cant get it to bood..
[07:59] <Landroid> uh
[07:59] <obaid> marsilainen, that shoud be easy with cut, thanks
[07:59] <genoobie> so I tried sudo lspci >> test.txt
[07:59] <marsilainen> obaid, np
[07:59] <Landroid> give me a break I'm typing on my phone
[07:59] <_zid> can anyone give some basic info for a ubuntu newbie on how wireless printers are discovered in ubuntu?
[08:00] <genoobie> it returns read only fs
[08:00] <Landroid> did nothing to break it that should be related
[08:00] <psycho_oreos> genoobie, hmm well even vfat would still be restricted to whomever owns that directory and its subdirectories.. you might need to be root to enforce writing
[08:00] <Landroid> tried to load a driver with ndiswrapper
[08:00] <Landroid> ndiswrapper locked up
[08:00] <Landroid> after that no sudo
[08:00] <ajhutton> Hey - I was wondering what I need to do to make my linux partition bootable again. On my macbook, I booted into OSX (from an external hard drive) and tried to resize a partition on my linux drive. Now it doesn't boot. I can mount it from gparted live cd and whatnot but i just cant get it to bood..
[08:00] <Landroid> for example apt-get works
[08:01] <rsk> ajhutton, grub probably took a dent
[08:01] <Landroid> I don't get it
[08:01] <Landroid> I just need to know what's going on here
[08:01] <ajhutton> rsk: how would i go about fixing that?
[08:01] <Landroid> apt-get works.. displays help
[08:01] <rsk> !grub ajhutton
[08:01] <marsilainen> Landroid, is it actually sudo that it can't find, or the executable that you are trying to execute through sudo?
[08:01] <psycho_oreos> Landroid, by default ubuntu would have sudo command working, somewhere along the line if that command isn't found, trace back to what you did last
[08:01] <Landroid> sudo apt-get = command not found
[08:01] <ajhutton> !grub
[08:02] <ajhutton> !grub2
[08:02] <ajhutton> @rsk: thank you so much :)
[08:02] <genoobie> wtf, I tried sudo cp blah balh...cannot create regular fiel
[08:02] <genoobie> *file
[08:02] <Landroid> nothing works with sudo
[08:02] <Landroid> but
[08:02] <Landroid> even the command doesn't work without sudo
[08:02] <marsilainen> ...
[08:02] <IdleOne> How do I add a .py to ~/.bashrc so it runs the script every time I open terminal?
[08:02] <psycho_oreos> genoobie, is it mounted with ro or rw?
[08:03] <marsilainen> Landroid, sounds like your path is screwed
[08:03] <ysliss> What is this
[08:03] <genoobie> psycho_oreos, I know this is newb, I dunno
[08:03] <marsilainen> Landroid, use full paths to sudo etc
[08:03] <marsilainen> Landroid, like /usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/apt-get
[08:03] <gdb> sudo will look in /sbin and /usr/sbin, where the default path doesn't
[08:03] <genoobie> it's insisting it's ro
[08:03] <psycho_oreos> genoobie, can't you just paste it onto pastebin from that computer or does that computer not have access to internet?
[08:03] <genoobie> psycho_oreos, no internet  access
[08:03] <psycho_oreos> genoobie, and if its ro, you'll need to remount it as rw
[08:03] <Landroid> apt-get = help. sudo apt-get = help
[08:04] <gdb> ie; something like "sudo mdadm" will work while mdadm by itself won't
[08:04] <Landroid> apt-get install command not found. same thing with sudo apt-get install
[08:04] <genoobie> I can tell you the last line of lspci is 02:00.0 Network controller: Texas Instruments ACX 111 54mbps Wireless Interface
[08:04] <IdleOne> Landroid: what are you trying to install?
[08:04] <gdb> Landroid: ls -l /usr/bin/apt-get
[08:04] <gdb> Landroid: do you see it there?
[08:04] <genoobie> so it sees some kind of interface
[08:05] <genoobie> but I'm not sure how to tap into it...
[08:05] <psycho_oreos> genoobie, that would be relevant, yes but at the same time you're going to be in for a bit of a rough ride without internet access on that computer
[08:05] <genoobie> yeah, that's the problem
[08:05] <genoobie> hmmm...let me see if I can get it wired
[08:05] <l0k0-0-N0> i tried installing the latest bugzilla branch in x64 9.10, it broke, now everytime i try to install someting with apt-get it complains that libtemplate-toolkit-perl and libgd-perl are dependants of libtemplate-gd-perl but not installed, nor are they found when searching aptitude.
[08:06] <psycho_oreos> genoobie, would be far more ideal imo
[08:08] <memet> hey
[08:08] <memet> psycho_oreos,
[08:08] <memet> you still here?
[08:08] <memet> I'm hooked up via the laptop
[08:08] <psycho_oreos> memet, as in genoobie ?
[08:09] <memet> so the "wired" is working properly
[08:09] <memet> yes
[08:09] <memet> as in genoobie
[08:09] <memet> so now what.
[08:09] <psycho_oreos> memet, pastebin me your dmesg output
[08:09] <adante> hi guys
[08:09] <memet> hrm
[08:09] <adante> how do i install the linux-image-2.6.27-14-generic kernel?
[08:09] <memet> pm?
[08:10] <maco> adante: use 8.10
[08:10] <psycho_oreos> memet, well I'd prefer you put the output in pastebin rather than in pm :)
[08:10] <adante> when i try 'aptitude install linux-image-2.6.27-14-generic' it does nothing (at least there is no entry in boot)
[08:10] <maco> adante: thatd be 8.10's kernel
[08:10] <memet> is pm okay?
[08:10] <Nyoron> Does ubuntu support wep encryption? Every time I try to use wep, I can't connect to the internet.
[08:10] <psycho_oreos> memet, paste output into pm? no thanks, I'll lag out
[08:10] <memet> okay
[08:10] <adante> maco: is there any way to get an older kernel in 9.04?
[08:10] <memet> let me see if I can figure this out
[08:10] <adante> maco: sorry 9.10
[08:11] <maco> Nyoron: that may vary by hardware, but i think most hardware can do it
[08:11] <psycho_oreos> !pastebin | memet
[08:11] <maco> Nyoron: well, most common hardware at least... USB dongles possibly not
[08:11] <Nyoron> maco I have a card, not a dongle.
[08:11] <psycho_oreos> Nyoron, it heavily depends on chipset and drivers
[08:11] <maco> adante: you could manually download it from archive.ubuntu.com and install it, but if it breaks your graphics or anything...too bad
[08:12] <psycho_oreos> adante, why would you want such an ancient kernel on your 9.10 install?
[08:12] <psycho_oreos> Nyoron, pastebin me your lspci output
[08:12] <adante> psycho_oreos: i don't want an ancient kernel per se, i just want a kernel that works
[08:12] <psycho_oreos> adante, that works for what?
[08:12] <adante> psycho_oreos: booting and sound mainly
[08:13] <psycho_oreos> adante, I can't imagine why the kernel inside 9.10 wouldn't work.. and the kernel version provided on 9.10 I'm sure is at least 2.6.30+
[08:13] <adante> psycho_oreos: 2.6.31-16-generic does not boot  (see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8561468#post8561468 ), and audio does not work in 2.6.28-17-generic (see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8560287#post8560287 )
[08:13] <psycho_oreos> adante, so try 9.04
[08:13] <memet> psycho_oreos,
[08:14] <memet> okay, here goes
[08:14] <Nyoron> psycho_oreos: I pm'd it to you
[08:14] <kinja-sheep> adante: "aptitude search linux-image"
[08:14] <memet> oh frig!
[08:14] <adante> psycho_oreos: yeah i can't imagine why either but be that as it may, it doesn't work
[08:14] <psycho_oreos> Nyoron, can you please in the future use pastebin?
[08:14] <psycho_oreos> memet, use pastebin.. its a website
[08:14] <nhasian> i have a service hellanzb that starts every time i boot.  how do i disable it from starting?
[08:14] <Nyoron> psycho_oreos: Ok fine, I didn't think it was that long though.
[08:14] <adante> kinja-sheep: thanks that is what i am doing but as i stated in original qn the older kernel installs do nothing
[08:14] <ubuntuuser> hi , anyone can teach me how do I set my jockey ati driver brightness ? it's too bright on the monitor
[08:15] <adante> psycho_oreos: 9.04 as in the whole distro or the kernel?
[08:15] <psycho_oreos> Nyoron, and so I suspect you have 9.10 on?
[08:15] <psycho_oreos> adante, as in the whole distro
[08:15] <Nyoron> psycho_oreos: Yeah, gnome, 64bit, etc
[08:15] <kinja-sheep> adante: Clean Karmic or upgrading Karmic?
[08:15] <adante> psycho_oreos: is there an easy way to downgrade or am i looking at reinstalling from scratch?
[08:15] <adante> kinja-sheep: upgrading
[08:15] <psycho_oreos> Nyoron, 64bit maybe a bit of an issue at times
[08:15] <psycho_oreos> adante, I don't think you can downgrade easily
[08:15] <kinja-sheep> adante: You have to reboot and hold ESC (I think) to roll back down to older kernel.
[08:16] <Nyoron> psycho_oreos: Believe me, I'm noticing it...
[08:16] <HaskellTripleLov> can i use mathemtaca for windows on ubuntu? with wine?
[08:16] <ubuntuuser> hi , anyone can teach me how do I set my jockey ati driver brightness ? it's too bright on the monitor
[08:16] <psycho_oreos> Nyoron, good chance to try the 32bit in live mode and to see if you can actually connect via wep
[08:16] <adante> kinja-sheep: yes
[08:16] <memet> oh for f's sake
[08:16] <memet> It's posted in pastebin
[08:16] <maco> ubuntuuser: doesnt your monitor have buttons to control that?
[08:16] <psycho_oreos> memet, paste me the link
[08:16] <adante> lol so solution is format and reinstall older version atm?
[08:17] <memet> why can't I just friggin paste the link from FF
[08:17] <psycho_oreos> adante, for downgrading yes,  but why not try their live-cd if in doubt?
[08:17] <Nyoron> psycho_oreos: The thing is, I have to change it from the router settings page first. So once I change it, I'll just have to go to a hard connection to fix it back.
[08:17] <psycho_oreos> memet, Ctrl+C and then Ctrl+V here
[08:17] <maco> adante: if you used 2.6.27 with 9.10 userspace, audio still wouldnt work
[08:17] <HaskellTripleLov> can i use MATHEMATICA for windows on UBUNTU? with wine?
[08:17] <HaskellTripleLov> can i use MATHEMATICA for windows on UBUNTU? with wine?
[08:17] <HaskellTripleLov> can i use MATHEMATICA for windows on UBUNTU? with wine?
[08:17] <FloodBot4> HaskellTripleLov: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:17] <maco> adante: only 9.10's kernel will give you audio with 9.10's userspace
[08:18] <iceroot> !appdb | HaskellTripleLov
[08:18] <ubuntuuser> maco: yes but it's not about brightness it's something similar with the background color
[08:18] <adante> maco: i see
[08:18] <paragonc> hrmmm i removed pulseaudio - and then realizesd 9.10 uses it for everything - i tried to reinstall it - but i still cant get sound - (note muted in alsamixer - volumes up )
[08:18] <psycho_oreos> Nyoron, to fix back the 32bit?
[08:18] <maco> adante: well actually....
[08:18] <Flannel> HaskellTripleLov: Mathematica has a linux version
[08:18] <justin_> hi, how to print  a file? ps: I have already set up cups, and got a test page
[08:18] <flexible> How do i get the WICD tray icon in GNOME (Ubuntu 9.10)
[08:18] <maco> adante: if you change pulseaudio's config to not use the udev module and use the other hting intead
[08:18] <adante> maco: how can i tell what kernel belongs to a specific distro (or vice versa)?
[08:18] <Nyoron> psycho_oreos: to change my router settings page
[08:18] <HaskellTripleLov> Flannel> but i cant find it on torrent or rapidshare
[08:19] <adante> maco: this does not appear to be a pulseaudio issue
[08:19] <maco> adante: oh?
[08:19] <psycho_oreos> Nyoron, huh, but what has that got to do with wep or are you actually having issues with wpa? or?
[08:19] <iceroot> justin_: from terminal?  /usr/bin/lpr filename
[08:19] <memet> psycho_oreos,
[08:19] <adante> maco: alsa is unable to find any devices
[08:19] <adante> maco: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8560287#post8560287
[08:19] <Flannel> HaskellTripleLov: You can contact MathWorks and ask about its availability with regard to your license, I'm sure.
[08:19] <maco> adante: i know if you use pulseaudio and have not-2.6.31, pulseaudio will claim there are no devices
[08:19] <iceroot> HaskellTripleLov: what about looking at there webpage?
[08:19] <memet> okay, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d78c14b7c
[08:19] <ae86-drifter> whats the command to run nvidia config
[08:19] <adante> maco: hmm, but would something like 'aplay -l' use pulseaudio?
[08:19] <Nyoron> psycho_oreos: Nintendo DS is strange and doesn't understand wpa2 or wpa... only wep...
[08:19] <maco> adante: because it expects udev to tell it about the devices and only karmic's kernel uses pure udev
[08:19] <HaskellTripleLov> i want pirate version dude what webpage i aint buying it
[08:20] <maco> adante: im not sure aboutt hat
[08:20] <memet> I had to type that in since I can't friggin cut and paste in the OS
[08:20] <paragonc> is there anything other than sudo apt-get install pulseaudio i need to do?
[08:20] <maco> HaskellTripleLov: too bad then
[08:20] <iceroot> Nyoron: only the old one
[08:20] <HaskellTripleLov> oh yeah and you all bought it haha bitches
[08:20] <Nyoron> iceroot: Oh really? hmm... that might be something worth looking into more...
[08:20] <iceroot> HaskellTripleLov: buy it or stop that here
[08:20] <psycho_oreos> Nyoron, ewww, that chipset is capable of doing wpa/wpa2
[08:20] <maco> ...or we just do our math homework instead of using mathematica :P
[08:20] <justin_> iceroot: oh, thank, but how can print the file in 2 sides?
[08:21] <adante> maco: what fun this is
[08:21] <iceroot> justin_: hm, have a look at man lpr   i dont know sorry
[08:21] <Nyoron> psycho_oreos: no wep? oh fudge
[08:21] <justin_> iceroot:ok, tas
[08:21] <maco> adante: you can try reconfiguring pulse...
[08:21] <maco> adante: let me look up what to change
[08:21] <psycho_oreos> Nyoron, no that chipset should be able to do all three without an issue
[08:21] <ae86-drifter> when i run the nvidia settings i get: Xlib:  extension "RANDR" missing on display ":1.0".  ; Xlib:  extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1.0".
[08:22] <memet> psycho_oreos, so any thoughts?
[08:22] <Nyoron> psycho_oreos: Radical, I'll test it out.   There is a periodic spamming going around that can DOS your maciene if you enable accept or ask for dir.
[08:24] <haresh_> hello
[08:24] <ae86-drifter> dont use wep
[08:24] <ubuntuuser> help , my add panel (brightness applet) doesn't work !
[08:24] <ae86-drifter> lol
[08:25] <Younder> psycho_oreos, I have a itables filter you can use if you want it.
[08:25] <maco> heh i learned to mac spoof years before i learned to crack wep
[08:25] <ae86-drifter> you can clone someones mac address by typing sudo macchanger [type any mac here] eth0
[08:25] <psycho_oreos> if they can get past the mac filter they have to wait for the specific device to either jump offline or they have to force it to disconnect.. so lets say if you have mac filtering on, and on the list it has 10 devices.. of all the time the 10 devices remain permanently associated... the attacker/intruder has to kick one off before he/she can use your net after figuring out the key
[08:25] <adante> maco: thanks i'll give it a go
[08:26] <psycho_oreos> Younder, wha? huh? well I was talking about mac filtering in general
[08:26] <ae86-drifter> lol
[08:26] <Younder> maco, do you know how to write dynamic contect sensitive packet filters that temporarely block IP adresses?
[08:26] <memet> okay, do you know what a monumental pia it is to keep closing FF and switching b/w apps in xfce
[08:26] <ubuntuuser> maco: yes but it's not about brightness it's something similar with the background color
[08:26] <memet> okay, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m4c5f6011
[08:26] <maco> ubuntuuser: i dont know then
[08:26] <psycho_oreos> memet, using xubuntu?
[08:26] <maco> Younder: no
[08:26] <adante> maco: alas no luck. thanks for trying t anyway
[08:26] <memet> psycho_oreos, yes
[08:27] <ubuntuuser> maco: hm...
[08:27] <ubuntuuser> help , my add panel (brightness applet) doesn't work ?
[08:27] <psycho_oreos> memet, should've said that earlier :p and 9.10?
[08:27] <memet> yes
[08:27] <ubuntuuser> anyone know any workaround ?
[08:27] <ae86-drifter> Nyron: try to also turn dhcp off and use an unlikely IP range
[08:27] <memet> I know....but I'm challenged here
[08:27] <ae86-drifter> another thin layer of protection, like WEP
[08:27] <psycho_oreos> memet, I've had no issues with 9.04 xubuntu
[08:28] <memet> I just can't switch b/w apps easily
[08:28] <psycho_oreos> and turn off wireless when not in use
[08:28] <memet> why?
[08:28] <memet> or should I say, how.
[08:28] <psycho_oreos> memet, nothing, just saying from my personal experience
[08:29] <psycho_oreos> memet, you have a broadcom card in that same machine?
[08:29] <Younder> maco: been raeding Linux firewalls: attack detection and response by Michal Rash. Interesting as it desribes known attacks and can translate snoren rules to iptables and psad. Faster and more lightweight than Snort.
[08:29] <Younder> snort
[08:30] <iceroot> is there a way to have $PATH for all shells the same (automaticly) atm bash is using another path then zsh
[08:30] <memet> psycho_oreos, hrm
[08:30] <memet> I don't think so
[08:30] <memet> I just thought it was the pcmcia as far as I knew
[08:30] <MindVirus> Any way to change GDM theme?
[08:30] <vlt> Hello. I have a laptop here that had an old OS installed but it worked quite well for simple tasks like browsing, email and text editing. Now I installed a fresh Xubuntu and runs inacceptably slow. What can I do to make a minimalistic version of Ubuntu (or another linux flavour) run with comparable speed?
[08:31] <ae86-drifter> MindVirus: goto preferences
[08:31] <psycho_oreos> memet, just checking your lspci, it seems that you have two pcmcia cards.. and dmesg at one stage did load b43legacy which would indicate a broadcom wireless card was inserted
[08:31] <vlt> ... on old hardware?
[08:31] <iceroot> !dsl | vlt
[08:31] <psycho_oreos> err card slots
[08:31] <MindVirus> ae86-drifter: You mean System->Administration->Login Screen? Because it doesn't give me an option to change the GDM theme.
[08:31] <MiiQu> Hi gang! Any ideas why when trying to install 9.10 through alternate install CD the bloody thing still wants to connect to the internet (and if I say no, it fails because it can not connect to some packages)
[08:31] <memet> yeah, I swapped out one or two cards
[08:31] <memet> just to check
[08:31] <vlt> iceroot: damn small ... I'll try that
[08:31] <Axius> vlt: try slackware for that.
[08:32] <iceroot> vlt: hm, have a look at DSL (damn small linux)
[08:32] <ae86-drifter> !find gdm-theme-manager
[08:32] <ae86-drifter> !find gdm-theme
[08:32] <ae86-drifter> !find gdm
[08:32] <psycho_oreos> memet, you might have a better chance at getting that broadcom to work
[08:32] <iceroot> !botabuse | ae86-drifter
[08:32] <memet> sorry
[08:32] <memet> my wired popped out
[08:32] <psycho_oreos> memet, you're still here, did you get my last message?
[08:33] <memet> about the broadcomm
[08:33] <psycho_oreos> yes
[08:33] <memet> vs the ACX TI interface
[08:33] <memet> listen either would be fine
[08:33] <ald85> ubuntu in spanish?
[08:33] <psycho_oreos> memet, the acx would probably be a bit more of an issue to get it working I think as opposed to broadcom one
[08:33] <psycho_oreos> !es | ald85
[08:34] <memet> okay so let me see if I can get the broadcom one again
[08:34] <psycho_oreos> memet, your laptop has dual pcmcia slots right? you can have both broadcom and ti card plugged in at the same time no?
[08:35] <memet> nah
[08:35] <memet> too bulky
[08:35] <psycho_oreos> memet, hmm ok
[08:35] <memet> I have the broadcom plugged in now
[08:36] <wolter> Hi, my sound keeps dying everytime I close the volume control window after a short while.. please help!
[08:36] <psycho_oreos> memet, and still using wired connection right?
[08:36] <memet> yes
[08:36] <memet> I'm still wired
[08:36] <psycho_oreos> memet, sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter
[08:36] <psycho_oreos> memet, after typing that, reboot, and the broadcom card should work
[08:36] <StupidandUgly> does anyone know how to run and install an .sh file in fluxubuntu?
[08:37] <psycho_oreos> StupidandUgly, chmod it and do ./ in front of the filename?
[08:37] <iceroot> StupidandUgly: sh file.sh
[08:37] <memet> psycho_oreos, couldn't find the pkg
[08:37] <memet> wtf..urgh agh
[08:37] <iceroot> StupidandUgly: or use chmod +x and then ./filename.sh
[08:37] <StupidandUgly> I tried those
[08:37] <psycho_oreos> memet, do aptitude update
[08:38] <memet> okay
[08:38] <ald85> i installed ubuntu 9 and i wanna go back to ubuntu 8 but i cant, what can i do?
[08:38] <memet> how?
[08:38] <memet> sorry
[08:38] <iceroot> !downgrade | ald85
[08:38] <memet> man switching b/w apps in xfce is ridiculous
[08:38] <psycho_oreos> memet, aptitude update
[08:38] <memet> duh, okay
[08:38] <psycho_oreos> what is b/w? black and white or bandwidth?
[08:38] <StupidandUgly> I run the command and I get 7: source: not found
[08:39] <psycho_oreos> StupidandUgly, you're missing deps
[08:39] <StupidandUgly> psycho_oreos can you explain? I'm a noob :l
[08:40] <ald85> ok ok not supported but what can i do
[08:40] <psycho_oreos> StupidandUgly, it seems that the script file calls specific programs, and if they aren't found, it will exit with error.. in this case it seems the program `source
[08:40] <psycho_oreos> isn't installed
[08:40] <ald85> my computer aint working properly with ubuntu 9
[08:40] <MiiQu> Hi gang! Any ideas why when trying to install 9.10 through alternate install CD the bloody thing still wants to connect to the internet (and if I say no, it fails because it can not connect to some packages)
[08:40] <psycho_oreos> ald85, download 8 cd, burn it and reinstall
[08:40] <agusj> can I add ubuntu karmic that use ext4 to boot loader list of ubuntu 8.04?
[08:40] <ald85> im on a netbook and tried doing it with usb
[08:40] <psycho_oreos> MiiQu, theres nothing wrong with that
[08:41] <ald85> but it wont install
[08:41] <psycho_oreos> agusj, highly doubt it
[08:41] <memet> psycho_oreos, it seems to have done something
[08:41] <memet> so I should reboot with the card in there
[08:41] <psycho_oreos> ald85, any specific reasons?
[08:41] <psycho_oreos> memet, no
[08:41] <memet> umm...okay
[08:41] <memet> what do you mean
[08:41] <ald85> it mentions and error and gets stucked
[08:42] <psycho_oreos> memet, after `aptitude update' do `aptitude search b43-fwcutter'
[08:42] <memet> oh shoot
[08:42] <MiiQu> psycho_oreos: The problem is that either my mobile internet sucks or ubuntu just cant handle it, either case I can not download anything with it. The connection just dies after a while.
[08:42] <memet> I did the previous command  sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter
[08:42] <agusj> I  dont know how to boot ubuntu karmic after installing older version
[08:42] <memet> and it did some digesting
[08:42] <memet> left me at the cmd prompt
[08:43] <memet> so I exited
[08:43] <MiiQu> psycho_ores: that is the reason I downloaded the alternate install CD in the first place....
[08:43] <psycho_oreos> MiiQu, weird, I have wireless internet and I don't have similar set of issues but I think you can postpone the updating until later on
[08:43] <wolter> how can I make my terninal display ~ instead of /home/me ?
[08:43] <psycho_oreos> memet, do `aptitude search b43-fwcutter'
[08:43] <StupidandUgly> does anyone know a distro of linux that is just runs a vanilla gnome
[08:43] <memet> even tho I did the cmd  sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter?
[08:44] <ubuntuuser> I need help I cannot adjust LCD brightness.It's not under power manager
[08:44] <psycho_oreos> MiiQu, I don't think it would matter in either case, it will still try to connect and therefore update
[08:44] <iceroot> StupidandUgly: debian
[08:44] <MiiQu> psycho_ores: I have mobile internet. I can not postpone it. The installer fails because it can not download needed packages eventhough I select "no" from the use latest packages -question
[08:44] <StupidandUgly> yeah thats what i was thinking iceroot
[08:44] <StupidandUgly> thanks
[08:44] <psycho_oreos> memet, yes, this is to see if you have installed b43-fwcutter package
[08:45] <iceroot> StupidandUgly: but you dont want the real gnome. its so bad.... ubuntu is patching so much into gnome (and sadly not upstreaming the changes to gnome)
[08:45] <psycho_oreos> MiiQu, hmm 9.10?
[08:45] <MiiQu> psycho_oreos: the alternate install Cd is definately ment for people without internet connection.
[08:45] <memet> psycho_oreos, it says the util for extracting the b43 firmware
[08:45] <MiiQu> from psycho_oreos: 9.04 to 9.10
[08:45] <MiiQu> from psycho_oreos: updating from 9.04 to 9.10
[08:45] <psycho_oreos> MiiQu, I don't think so, alternative iirc was for pure installation only but it doesn't include any updated packages
[08:45] <wolter> god i want to kill my computer right now
[08:46] <psycho_oreos> MiiQu, ewww and that's why I don't like upgrading.. always an issue
[08:46] <wolter> having so many small lame problems you can't solve, #ubuntu channel
[08:46] <memet> so it's there, now?
[08:46] <psycho_oreos> memet, what is the letter in front? p or i?
[08:46] <memet> oh crap
[08:46] <iceroot> MiiQu: wrong, the normal and the alternate cds are different in handling lvm/raid and other things but both have the same content
[08:46] <psycho_oreos> !alternate
[08:46] <memet> psycho_oreos, it's "i"
[08:46] <ubuntuuser> I need help I cannot adjust LCD brightness.It's not under power manager
[08:46] <Venturix> Buongiorno a tutti
[08:46] <MiiQu> psycho_oreos: Upgrading Using the Alternate CD/DVD Use this method if the system being upgraded is not connected to the Internet.
[08:47] <Venturix> I from Italy
[08:47] <psycho_oreos> memet, good, its installed, now reboot and that broadcom card should work.. make sure you disconnect wired first
[08:47] <freakynl> hi, not really ubuntu related i suppose, but i'm trying to make a bootable usb stick from 9.10 amd64 with unetbootin and get boot error. i made a ext2 fs on the usb stick however, should this be fat/vfat?
[08:47] <StupidandUgly> well all I really want is to run rhythm box on my mac using parallels
[08:47] <memet> without ndiswrapper?  I have wpa
[08:47] <memet> should I reboot?
[08:47] <memet> ugh
[08:47] <psycho_oreos> MiiQu, don't know where you're reading that from
[08:47] <psycho_oreos> memet, hang on
[08:47] <ogex> type top
[08:47] <memet> ok
[08:48] <StupidandUgly> Would debian work?
[08:48] <psycho_oreos> memet, it doesn't specifically imply that with that chipset it won't work with wpa, but you can give it a shot I suppose
[08:48] <memet> what will I have to do to get WPA?
[08:48] <psycho_oreos> memet, and I'd blacklist ndiswrapper too, it might bungle the process
[08:49] <psycho_oreos> memet, try it to see if it will work without ndiswrapper.. if it fails use ndiswrapper, simple as that
[08:49] <memet> okay
[08:49] <MiiQu> psycho_ores: From http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading
[08:49] <memet> I don't think it's that simple, but ok
[08:49] <memet> bbiam
[08:52] <psycho_oreos> MiiQu, bleh, either way I don't personally condone upgrading
[08:53] <spooky_> Hi, my browser works incredibly slow.
[08:53] <spooky_> It does DNS resolving very very very slow.
[08:53] <MiiQu> psycho_oreos: Thanks anyway. I don't know what to do either :)
[08:54] <spooky_> Some forums say that it is because of IPv6, and I should disable IPv6
[08:54] <spooky_> But their solution (/etc/modprobe.d/aliases tweaking) doesn't work
[08:54] <giantpune> hey.  what program do you guys use to record a webcam?
[08:54] <psycho_oreos> MiiQu, whilst you have mobile internet connected, can't you simply hit the upgrade button from upgrade manager and therefore upgrade via internet? must you do a cd upgrade?
[08:54] <spooky_> How can I disable IPv6?
[08:54] <phix> :D
[08:55] <phix> giantpune: the gimp
[08:55] <phix> spooky_: you dont haveb to
[08:55] <freakynl> is there no ddrescue on ubuntu? can't seem to find package
[08:55] <spooky_> phix: what should I do instead?
[08:55] <phix> spooky_: get used to it :)
[08:55] <spooky_> phix: that's not an option.
[08:55] <phix> spooky_: IPv6 is here to stay!
[08:55] <phix> Most ISPs are moving over to it
[08:55] <spooky_> It may be here to stay, but it shouldn't slow down my DNS resolving.
[08:56] <phix> spooky_: IPv4 exhastion is predicted in 3 - 4 yrs
[08:56] <spooky_> I don't care about IPv6, I just care about my DNS resolving going slow.
[08:56] <MiiQu> psycho_oreos: Yes, that is how I have hoped to do it for weeks now. It downloads 10-20 packages and then the connection dies. If I reboot the computer it will download around 20 packages more. Has taken a while but now it apparently got some packages from the alternate CD and now I am going 1269/1336 packages
[08:56] <phix> spooky_: IPv6 is a better protocol any way, makes ARP obsolete for one
[08:56] <thevor> Hi, has anyone ever been able to connect to someone on ichat using empathy or pidgin?
[08:56] <phix> spooky_: then do some caching or use googles user cache
[08:57] <ubuntuuser> I know how to set the brightness , install compiz manager and enable the setting brightness control via keyboard Thanks
[08:57] <phix> spooky_: google google DNS server
[08:57] <MiiQu> psycho_oreos: browser, email etc work perfectly but the connection dies for the updater
[08:57] <memet> psycho_oreos, I owe you
[08:57] <memet> I'm talking from my wireless
[08:57] <psycho_oreos> MiiQu, you have a weird mobile internet provider
[08:57] <phix> memet: congrats
[08:57] <psycho_oreos> memet, coolies, glad that worked.. too bad about the ti part
[08:57] <memet> now I have to figure out how to use this stupid wm
[08:58] <phix> memet: I am talking over my Nokia mobile phone :)
[08:58] <spooky_> phix: I know what IPv6 is, but hear me when I say this: DNS resolving should be adapted to my setup. It should be configurable still.
[08:58] <ubuntuuser> the problem i cannot set at brightness applet because compiz overlap it
[08:58] <phix> via blue tooth and 3g . UTMS
[08:58] <phix> spooky_: so ?
[08:58] <MiiQu> psycho_oreos: Or its the ubuntu thats wanking all up. Or the sunspots and solar winds. my ISP has hindered p2p on mobile internet but I dont know if it affects this
[08:58] <spooky_> And I am using a router to connect to my ISP.
[08:58] <spooky_> Inside my home, I'm IPv4
[08:58] <psycho_oreos> spooky, it is configurable, edit /etc/resolv.conf
[08:59] <spooky_> psycho_oreos: thanks, that's a better hint.
[08:59] <phix> memet: dont forget the swamp gas, that screws with me every now an then
[08:59] <phix> spooky_: ?
[08:59] <MiiQu> and squirrels, cant trust those sneaky devils
[08:59] <phix> memet: hehe
[09:00] <psycho_oreos> MiiQu, afaik the update manager would simultaneously grab more than one package at a time.. depending on your connection.. and if downloading excessively, your isp which blocks p2p would count that as p2p I suppose.. too much speed used in such duration
[09:00] <thevor> Is it possible to connect to ichat using either pidgin or empathy?
[09:00] <memet> phix have we met?
[09:00] <phix> memet: nick complete fail
[09:00] <phix> memet: blame the authors of irssi :)
[09:00] <psycho_oreos> MiiQu, if an ISP does that whilst you're on mobile connection.. I deem them lame
[09:01] <memet> xubuntu is updating
[09:01] <memet> holy crap
[09:01] <phix> memet: I like xubuntu
[09:01] <psycho_oreos> mobile internet isn't cheap, so it gives them no right to do that but heck whatever constitutes their freedom I'm sure you have the right to switch to another provider that is far more friendly
[09:01] <phix> I use xfc4 on my debian box under VNC
[09:01] <psycho_oreos> I'm on xubuntu 9.04
[09:02] <phix> shoujld I raise on pocket 10s ?
[09:02] <phix> pre-flop?
[09:02] <giantpune> yes
[09:02] <giantpune> all in
[09:02] <jussi01> !ot | phix
[09:02] <phix> giantpune: how much?
[09:02] <phix> haha ok :)
[09:02] <phix> giantpune: all in done
[09:02] <phix> giantpune: one caller
[09:03] <phix> they have 7 7
[09:03] <psycho_oreos> memet, so you're using wpa?
[09:03] <superpiiii> what is the difference between memory and currentmemory in the xml config  file of a  virtual machine using kvm/libvirt?
[09:03] <phix> I won!! thanx giantpune :P you have been a great help :P you deserve ops in this chan :P
[09:03] <jussi01> phix: please, go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:03] <memet> psycho_oreos, yes
[09:03] <phix> jussi01: I can't
[09:03] <psycho_oreos> memet, good
[09:03] <memet> how do I switch b/w windows
[09:03] <rsk> memet, b/w ?
[09:03] <memet> between
[09:03] <Guest31458> How does one determine the correct name when using apt-get?
[09:03] <jussi01> phix: then desist chatting about oftopic subjects here
[09:03] <rsk> alt+tab
[09:03] <psycho_oreos> memet, I believe alt-tab.. but between workstation is different
[09:03] <memet> nah
[09:04] <phix> memet: virtualbox
[09:04] <memet> alt+tab = nothing
[09:04] <rsk> works for me
[09:04] <phix> jussi01: well unban me then and I will gladly continue my offtopic convo in there
[09:04] <psycho_oreos> Guest31458, what do you mean correct name?
[09:04] <memet> okay now xubuntu is installing those pkgs
[09:04] <memet> dpkg
[09:04] <psycho_oreos> memet, weird, it works for me with windows under the same workstation/desktop
[09:05] <jussi01> phix: just because you are banned there does not mean you are welcome to break the rules here. Forfurther discussion, please join #ubuntu-ops
[09:05] <memet> yes in windows no prob
[09:05] <psycho_oreos> memet, probably 9.10 lol that's why I haven't upgraded yet
[09:05] <phix> jussi01: ok
[09:05] <memet> not in 9.10
[09:05] <memet> ugh
[09:05] <psycho_oreos> well windows is different :)
[09:05] <memet> this is ridiculous
[09:05] <memet> why can't I do simple things
[09:05] <memet> should I have installed 9.04
[09:06] <memet> I'll never remember all those cmds
[09:06] <Guest31458> like konversation there must be a default name to put it into a  script for install
[09:06] <psycho_oreos> memet, go into Applications > Settings > Window Manager
[09:07] <psycho_oreos> under the keyboard bindings you should be able to see which combo allows you to cycle windows.. if nothing assigned, you can assign yourself one
[09:07] <psycho_oreos> Guest31458, you meant packages?
[09:07] <Guest31458> yes psycho
[09:08] <psycho_oreos> Guest31458, there's multiple ways.. apt-cache search, aptitude search, or using synaptic
[09:09] <speedxxx2ore> kan man skriva.. grattis på tillökningsdagen..  till några som fått barn =)
[09:09] <rsk> speedxxx2ore, #ubuntu-offtopic and english
[09:09] <MrDudle> so i have an external harddrive that has fedora on it with encryption
[09:09] <MrDudle> i plug it into the computer i'm on now
[09:09] <MrDudle> which is ubuntu
[09:09] <Guest31458> i read something to only stick with one packages i think something to do with DEB and other kinds. do you know anything about this?
[09:10] <MrDudle> and it asks for the encryption password and when i give it it gives me this error message Error unlocking device: cryptsetup exited with exit code 239: Command failed: Device already exists
[09:10] <psycho_oreos> !se | speedxxx2ore
[09:10] <psycho_oreos> Guest31458, not sure what you mean, stick with one packages
[09:11] <AlexD73> hi, I'm on karmic 64 and I want to block echo requests to limit the use of the network card, on help.ubuntu.com say to edit the file / etc / ufw / before.rules but opens a blank file, is this normal?
[09:11] <marsilainen> Guest31458, on ubuntu .deb packages are generally used, on some other linux distros .rpm is common. Probably best on ubuntu to use .deb packages when they are available, but .rpm can be used if necessary
[09:11] <vlt> MrDudle: You can run the "unlocking" manually: `cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/your-crypted-partition name-for-uncrypted-device`
[09:11] <MrDudle> k
[09:11] <psycho_oreos> there's other forms like tar.gz, tar.bz2, etc
[09:13] <MrDudle> vlt, i get this after doing that 160 GB Hard Disk: 160 GB Encrypted
[09:13] <Guest31458> i thought tar.gz and bz2 are only archives
[09:13] <MrDudle> or am i supposed to include the ` `
[09:14] <DaZ> Guest31458: and you were right [;
[09:14] <vlt> MrDudle: No, run the command without "`".
[09:14] <MrDudle> vlt, that's what i did
[09:14] <MrDudle> still said no
[09:15] <vlt> MrDudle: What is the name of the encrypted partition?
[09:15] <MrDudle> 160 GB Hard Disk: 160 GB Encrypted
[09:15] <vlt> MrDudle: No, I mean in /dev/
[09:15] <MrDudle> oh
[09:15] <MrDudle> let me check
[09:15] <vlt> MrDudle: Should be something like /dev/sdb1 for example
[09:16] <MrDudle> i think it's sdb1 yeah
[09:16] <vlt> MrDudle: What does `blkid` show you?
[09:16] <psycho_oreos> The_Shark_001,  no it could contain anything, including source codes for some program that you may want to compile from scratch
[09:16] <The_Shark_001> I have 3 IDE hard drives Same size same make.  Thinking putting them on a raid.  Is it easy to install ubuntu onto a raid system?
[09:16] <thedoor> how can i get a log of the logins that a user do in the system?
[09:16] <vlt> thedoor: `last`
[09:17] <MrDudle> vlt i assume you mean to run the blkid in the terminal? if so nothing
[09:17] <vlt> thedoor: Yes.
[09:17] <MrDudle> vlt sdc1
[09:17] <thedoor> vlt, tks :)
[09:18] <gdb> The_Shark_001: I run a non-redundant root disk and a raid1 md device for /home.  It's worked well for me.  Is that the sort of configuration you are looking for or are you wanting a raid root device?
[09:18] <Dovid[Laptop]> hi. i am a n00b to ubuntu. is there any way to use apt-get to see what packages i can install (e.g. yum list kern*) ?
[09:18] <vlt> MrDudle: (Where did you run the cryptsetup cmd, if not in a terminal?) Maybe you need to run every command prepended with `sudo`
[09:18] <gdb> Dovid[Laptop]: aptitude search kern*
[09:18] <Dovid[Laptop]> thanks
[09:18] <MrDudle> k
[09:18] <The_Shark_001> i'm thinking of putting everything on the raid
[09:18] <The_Shark_001> doing a 0+1
[09:19] <MrDudle> vlt, cryptsetup: luksOpen: requires <device> <name>  as arguments
[09:19] <gdb> The_Shark_001: I don't believe you can do 0+1 with 3 disks.  You can do 1, you can do 4, you can do 5.  But I don't believe 0+1 or 1+0 are options.
[09:19] <FireCrotch> The_Shark_001: You need 4 drives for 0+1
[09:19] <gdb> Ah, you can do 0 as well.
[09:19] <vlt> The_Shark_001: For 0+1 you need at least four drives. With three of them I'd recommend Raid5
[09:20] <gdb> And you can't boot off a raid5.
[09:20] <The_Shark_001> well i was think doing the copy to the Sata drive unless that is not possible.
[09:20] <gdb> So the best option in that case is to have a non-redundant root disk and then a raid1 for your data.
[09:20] <Dan48p> hi i'm am trying to back up my ubuntu installation so that i can do a clean install on a new drive and keep all the drivers and apps and things so that it is basically the same computer just with a new hard drive in it
[09:21] <ewook> Dan48p: dd
[09:21] <Dan48p> ewook, sorry?
[09:21] <MrDudle> vlt, what does the cryptsetup: luksOpen: requires <device> <name>  as arguments mean
[09:21] <S0LIDUS> gdb, Or go for a RAID10
[09:21] <ewook> !dd
[09:21] <vlt> The_Shark_001: That's right. I'd make two partitions on every disk: One small boot partition running as raid1 (even with 3 or more members) and a second partition as members of a raid5.
[09:21] <ewook> !info dd
[09:21] <gdb> S0LIDUS: That's not an option with 3 disks.
[09:21] <ewook> *_*
[09:21] <ewook> someone has made a booboo with the factoids.
[09:22] <vlt> MrDudle: That's exactly the command I gave you before. `cryptsetup luksOpen source target`
[09:22] <S0LIDUS> gdb, Woops my bad. There is always an LV though
[09:22] <gdb> ewook: dd isn't a package
[09:22] <ardchoille> ewook: I think dd is part of a *utils package
[09:22] <The_Shark_001> vit then i can mix the ide drives (3) with the sata drive
[09:22] <MrDudle> vlt, when i run it that's what it gives me
[09:22] <gdb> ewook: it's in the package coreutils
[09:22] <ardchoille> gdb: thought so
[09:22] <freakynl> ddrescue was in the gddrescue package for which i had to enable additional repositories
[09:22] <vlt> MrDudle:  What exactly do you run? I can't see xour screen.
[09:22] <kinja-sheep> MrDudle: Example --> sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb1 White-Forest
[09:23] <MrDudle> oh ok
[09:23] <freakynl> concerning unetbootin, dunno if it is supposed to work with ext2, but worked fine when switching to vfat
[09:23] <freakynl> thx
[09:23] <ewook> well, even so, the answer is wrong :)
[09:23] <MrDudle> kinja-sheep, i get it
[09:23] <FireCrotch> The_Shark_001: Just curious... why do you want to set up a RAID?
[09:23] <The_Shark_001> the speed
[09:23] <kraut> moin
[09:23] <ardchoille> ewook: No it isn't, package dd doesn't exist because it isn't a package
[09:23] <vlt> The_Shark_001: Then you don't want raid5
[09:23] <gdb> What sort of speed are you looking for?  Reads or writes?
[09:23] <ewook> ardchoille: so, !info is just for packages?
[09:24] <MrDudle> vlt now i get Command failed: Can not access device
[09:24] <ardchoille> ewook: That's what I thought it was for
[09:24] <ece> hey
[09:24] <ece> what does gnu means
[09:24] <ewook> ardchoille: oh. I thought it was more generic-query. nevermind then :)
[09:24] <gdb> ece: GNU's Not Unix
[09:24] <ardchoille> ece: GNU's Not Unix
[09:24] <gdb> ece: It's a recursive acronym.
[09:24] <Dan48p> there is some automated way to save everything?  i would look at just cloning the installation but i am going to be installing a ssd and i think it needs different partition formatting
[09:24] <The_Shark_001> what about corruption?
[09:24] <MrDudle> vlt at least uit's letting me format now
[09:25] <ece> i mean GPL is general public license
[09:25] <gdb> echelon: That's correct.  And GNU is "GNU's Not Unix".
[09:25] <ardchoille> Dan48p: you can use PartImage to clone the drive and then install the image on any number of boxes, that's what I do with my 11 computers.
[09:25] <ardchoille> !sysresccd | Dan48p
[09:25] <ece> ii mea
[09:26] <ece> GPL is general public license
[09:26] <ece> is there something like tjhat
[09:26] <Callum_> ,,,
[09:26] <gdb> ece: Which is correct, as you've already said.
[09:26] <Callum_> ...*
[09:26] <rsk> nice channel
[09:26] <Dan48p> ardchoille, will that allow me to change from ext3?
[09:26] <gdb> ece: What are you asking?
[09:26] <Callum_> someone awoke me from the dead, how dare they
[09:26] <ardchoille> Dan48p: Not sure about that, never done it
[09:26] <Drayon> How do I get C man in the terminal?
[09:26] <ece> GNU what is the whole sentence
[09:26] <ece> general what what
[09:27] <gdb> ece: I've told you several times.  It stands for "GNU's Not Unix."
[09:27] <vlt> ece: It's recursive
[09:27] <rsk> ece, gnu stands for gnu's not unix
[09:27] <gdb> The G doesn't mean General, it means "GNU's"
[09:27] <bburhans> Stx: oh, you weren't in here. Marlin is a bot as well, same spam.
[09:27] <bburhans> floodbot has muted it.
