[04:14] <washington> as exchange complaint as possible
[04:14] <Dabian> arox: Why?
[04:14] <sacarlson> nicolaus: sudo grub-update  or sudo grub-install /dev/sda  I think
[04:14] <Dabian> arox: Oh .. I read the backlog
[04:15] <Dabian> arox: Maybe you need to get rid of Xubuntu.
[04:15] <Dabian> arox: sudo apt-get --purge remove xubuntu-desktop
[04:15] <agustin> i need some help i have 4 file systems in my computer but i cann only see 1
[04:15] <agustin> what can i do?
[04:15] <Fezzler> Sound available in Audacity but nowhere else?  Lucid
[04:15] <SuperPaco69> sacarlson, so I do the lspci I get the result of the controller and then??
[04:16] <sacarlson> SuperPaco69: then google it to see if others have problems with it
[04:16] <lucas-arg> sacarlson, nicolaus sudo update-grub2 then sudo grub-install /dev/sdx but thats only if u want to apply some changes... for reinstalling grub after installing windows ask a bot
[04:16] <eman2> pksadiq: reran the commands before and got the same output. lshw gives me output, but i have no way of copying them to the screen. anything i'm looking for in particular?
[04:16] <lucas-arg> !grub
[04:16] <SuperPaco69> ok thanks
[04:16] <Dabian> !grub2
[04:16] <lucas-arg> there
[04:16] <SuperPaco69> sacarlson, thanks a lot!
[04:16] <Dabian> !grub2 | dabian
[04:16] <sacarlson> lucas-arg: nicolaus: that sounds more correct
[04:16] <Dabian> ubottu: Cool, thanks.
[04:17] <mandriva_> pksadiq: is there any download manager like orbit downloader for ubuntu which can both grab youtube videos and download files
[04:17]  * DISARONO - 5 ounces of Cranberry Juice , ice, Disarono ......... There you have it, Disarono on the rocks, and Cranberry.
[04:17] <_jesse_> !ops
[04:18] <_jesse_> hrm well it really isn't an emergency :/
[04:18] <maco> DISARONO: stop that please
[04:18] <KM0201> _jesse_: wel,l then why did you do it?
[04:18] <DISARONO> Hi Mackenzie Morgan
[04:18] <NoqturnalX> wow it's a nightmare in here lol
[04:18] <infid> to install samba server you just do 'sudo apt-get install samba' right?
[04:18] <maco> DISARONO: howdy. this channel is for ubuntu technical support. please try to stick to that topic
[04:18] <_jesse_> KM0201: I didn't realize it should only be used in emergencies; wasn't sure ubotto even had that command
[04:19] <stygian_> some people may not understand that ops are channel operators, that they dont necessarily have the answers, that they arent the only ones that might have answers, etc
[04:19] <Flannel> _jesse_: In the future, mentioning it in #ubuntu-ops is an easy non-emergency method of letting us know.  But thanks.
[04:19] <maco> _jesse_: no its fine. any time an op is needed, go ahead
[04:19] <_jesse_> Flannel: gotcha, thanks :)
[04:19] <pksadiq> eman2: does sudo lshw -class storage   , gives anything as output? if it does , that's enough for now, now open disk utility, and check you disk , if present
[04:19] <KM0201> !msgthebot | _jesse_
[04:19] <DISARONO> wtf
[04:19] <DISARONO> wtf was that
[04:19] <maco> DISARONO: that was more overt spam than yours
[04:19] <maco> KM0201: that factoid is about practicing. jesse actually did mean to alert the ops, so really, it's fine
[04:19] <DISARONO> someone asked how to make disarono on the rocks and cranberry in Ubuntu Notepad
[04:20] <KM0201> maco: actually, he said he didn't
[04:20] <DISARONO> so I pasted it in here, to put it in their ubuntu text editor
[04:20] <maco> KM0201: no, he said it wasnt a true emergency
[04:20] <devslash> i installed a windows 7 theme but the uninstall script is borked and doesnt work. any suggestions on how i can revert to the default theme ?
[04:20] <Flannel> DISARONO: No, they didn't, please stop that.
[04:20] <pksadiq> !info youtube-dl | mandriva_
[04:20] <eman2> pksadiq: it does give a lot of output about sata controllers and ide interfaces. which disk utility are you talking about?
[04:20] <KM0201> maco: jesse_> KM0201: I didn't realize it should only be used in emergencies; "wasn't sure ubotto even had that command"  note the last part
[04:20] <IdleOne> KM0201: Please drop it.
[04:21] <devslash> any one
[04:21] <Flannel> KM0201: It's alright, water under the bridge, etc.
[04:21] <nicolaus> ok thanks going to restart
[04:21] <KM0201> Flannel: didn't bother me, talk to maco..
[04:21] <NoqturnalX> does anybody have a link to fix the persistent changes part of a USB Flash drive setup with Ubuntu 10.10? the laptop won't boot with persistent on
[04:21] <pksadiq> eman2: system > administration > disk utility
[04:21] <DISARONO> last night my woman told me to "Fill her up like a gast tank, but don't mind the fumes because she hasn't wiped in 2 weeks"
[04:21] <KM0201> lol, knew that ws coming
[04:22] <Alan502> Hi :) Can somebody help me making multiple letter shortcuts in ubuntu?
[04:22] <devslash> i installed a windows 7 theme but the uninstall script is borked and doesnt work. any suggestions on how i can revert to the default theme ?
[04:22] <eman2> pksadiq: i see the cd drive, sata host adapter, pata host adapters, and a 688 mb peripheral device (filesystem.squashfs)
[04:22] <pksadiq> !unetbooin | NoqturnalX
[04:22] <Fezzler> where do I configure sound?
[04:22] <pksadiq> !unetbootin | NoqturnalX
[04:23] <nit-wit> devs
[04:23] <Fezzler> I don't see such an option in the System menus
[04:23] <Diamondcite> Fezzler: Right click on the volume icon on the top right?
[04:23] <NoqturnalX> I have it installed on the flash drive already. I used the universal installer on a windows machine. it worked but now all of a suddent it wont boot anymore. gets hung at the Ubuntu loading screen
[04:24] <NoqturnalX> thank you for the links ubottu i'll check to see if I can find a answer in one of them :)
[04:24] <SuperPaco69> how can I install the ubuntu software center in a server??
[04:24] <Diamondcite> NoqturnalX: USB based boots tend to take some time as long as the drive is being read.. did you do an improper shutdown(That might hurt the persistent data file)
[04:25] <pksadiq> eman2: and so I think there is something to be done with your bios,I don't play much with it, any way go to bios and load optimal settings and reboot
[04:25] <zfe> folks help me
[04:25] <pksadiq> !sound | Fezzler
[04:25] <zfe> i need a software make really simple dungeon maps
[04:25] <Dabian> zfe: Er det dig?
[04:25] <Fezzler> Diamondcite>> I don't have one
[04:25] <nit-wit> devslash, last time I saw this it couldn't be fixed but try this. left column playing around. http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/index
[04:25] <zfe> with 4 directions
[04:25] <zfe> n-e-s-w
[04:26] <devslash> huh
[04:26] <Dabian> Hvad laver du i-talien?
[04:26] <kato>  SuperPaco69: that needs a gui. You can use #aptitude in shell
[04:26] <eman2> pksadiq: pretty sure i already did that, but i'll try that again. thanks for the help, i appreciate it
[04:26] <Fezzler> !players
[04:26] <NoqturnalX> Diamondcite: Thank you for your help. It's actually my mothers computer that I set it up on. Her hard drive is bad and this is a temp fix for her. I don't know if there was a improper shutdown. but it does not go any further. is there a way to repair the persistent file if this happens?
[04:26] <SuperPaco69> kato do I just do a apt -get aptitude??
[04:26] <agustin> need some help i have 4 file systems in my computer but i can only see one
[04:26] <Fezzler> !codecs
[04:27] <NoqturnalX> i just installed on a USB here at my house and booted into ubuntu same setup as hers and it booted pretty quickly. under a minute I'd say
[04:27] <devslash> nit-wit: did someone else have this problem with this script ?
[04:27] <nit-wit> agustin, when you say 4 file systems what do you mean.
[04:27] <kato> SuperPaco69: no you should have aptitude already it gives you ncurses menu to software centre
[04:28] <nit-wit> devslash, not sure if was the same script but it was a W7 looking desktop for Linux.
[04:28] <nicolaus> ok i see the grub but no windows
[04:28] <NoqturnalX> i'm not sure what phrase to Google for to find the answer on my own. that's why I came here to see if someone knew or perhaps had a link to a helpful resource
[04:28] <UbuntuLily> I have burned Ubuntu to a cd a few times but it doesn;t seem to want to boot.  Is there a way to see if the disk burned correctly?  It said it did..... but its not workin so not sure what to do next
[04:28] <devslash> so do i need to reinstall ?
[04:28] <nicolaus> i am sure the windows is still there
[04:28] <_jesse_> md5sum | UbuntuLily
[04:28] <Fezzler> Diamondcite>> I have no Sound icon on top
[04:28] <_jesse_> UbuntuLily: check the md5sums for the ISO
[04:29] <KM0201> nicolaus: why are you so sure of that?... can you mount the windows drive?
[04:29] <nit-wit> devslash, I would look at removing the whole desktop or reinstalling it first that waht the link shows
[04:29] <nicolaus> yes
[04:29] <agustin> i have my hdd with 4 partitions
[04:29] <UbuntuLily> i did, iso is good
[04:29] <KM0201> ok.
[04:29] <nit-wit> what
[04:29] <nicolaus> i see all the files on windows
[04:29] <agustin> but i cann only access to one of them
[04:29] <Fezzler> I hate Ubuntu sound!  Ugh.
[04:29] <CarlFK> UbuntuLily: do you have a floppy drive?
[04:30] <UbuntuLily> no
[04:30] <KM0201> Fezzler: you mean the login sound? the humming africans?
[04:30] <nit-wit> agustin, your to vague
[04:30] <Fezzler> To get jackd working, disable pulse audio; now no sound in cd players; but Audacity gets sound
[04:30] <CarlFK> UbuntuLily: ok, so can't use a SBM floppy (which will boot a cd...)
[04:30] <UbuntuLily> my bios supports cd boot if thats where this id going
[04:30] <mandriva_> pksadiq: once i have tried youtube-dl but i can't use it, is there any gui forntend for youtube-dl
[04:31] <Fezzler> KM0201>> No - I mean CD, MP3, You Tube, etc.
[04:31] <CarlFK> UbuntuLily: is your box's bios set to boot from CD before the HD?
[04:31] <UbuntuLily> yes
[04:31] <KM0201> Fezzler: dunno, mine works great
[04:31] <CarlFK> mandriva_: you might want to look at miro
[04:31] <UbuntuLily> and I also manually told it "Boot from CD" at the boot menu
[04:31] <nicolaus> i was going to try and reinstall windows but think i might have the same problem when its done
[04:31] <UbuntuLily> I have the disk in now and its not mounted
[04:32] <KM0201> UbuntuLily: did you burn the disk as an image?
[04:32] <Fezzler> KM0201>> That helps!  :)
[04:32] <UbuntuLily> yep
[04:32] <KM0201> Fezzler: i try.. :)
[04:32] <KM0201> Fezzler: whats your sound device
[04:32] <Nexxus> when i tried to make conky slightly transparent using compiz simple editor it ended up making my entire screen go transparent except for my desktop image how do i avoid that this time
[04:33] <agustin> I have 4 partions in my hardrive, but in dolphin system i can only visuale one of them.. what can i do to see them all
[04:33] <Fezzler> KM0201>> On board Via chips set
[04:33] <KM0201> well thats why
[04:33] <KM0201> via graphics suck.
[04:33] <KM0201> oh wait, nevermind
[04:33] <KM0201> we're talking about sound
[04:34] <Fezzler> KM0201>> graphics is nvidia
[04:34] <UbuntuLily> Any other options to check cd?
[04:34] <KM0201> Fezzler: yeah, sorry... i'm still frozen from the knees up, when I'm comnpletely thawed, i'll think more clearly
[04:34] <KM0201> Fezzler: laptop or PC?
[04:34] <kato> Nexxus: iirc that should be in ~/.conkyrc
[04:34] <bucky> UbuntuLily, got another computer you can try it on?
[04:35] <Nexxus> kato: what is the command to make it more transparent?
[04:36] <UbuntuLily> Just stuck it in a windows box and it doesn't seem to mount either
[04:37] <xud477> hi
[04:37] <bucky> UbuntuLily, you tried to reboot and run from the live cd?
[04:37] <mandriva_> CarlFK: can i grab youtube video with miro
[04:37] <CarlFK> yep
[04:37] <kato> Nexxus: conky has a config file .conkyrc. in there you'll see things like 'own_window yes' and 'own_window_transparent yes'
[04:38] <Nexxus> kato: thanks ill check it out
[04:38] <xud477> \/tmp
[04:38] <xud477> any one on bt4 ?
[04:38] <jrmcm> What is the difference between an alias and a function?
[04:39] <xud477> u may seem link ?
[04:39] <shcherbak> xud477: apparently there is #backtrack-linux chnnel
[04:39] <xud477> ok thx :)
[04:39] <mandriva_> CarlFK: which laptop(vendor) is most compatible with ubuntu 10.10
[04:40] <Fezzler> KM0201>> PC
[04:40] <CarlFK> mandriva_: no clue.  I have 2 HPs that work fine
[04:40] <KM0201> Fezzler: i dunno, buy a sound card? :)
[04:40] <mandriva_> CarlFX: can you please give me the model no:
[04:41] <shcherbak> mandriva_: ubuntu posted comatibility list
[04:41] <kato> jrmcm: you might like to visit #bash or check out tldp.org/bashwhatever
[04:41] <jrmcm> k thx
[04:41] <sarah1> OK how am i not the administrator for my computer? I don't have permissions to access all kinds of folders.....
[04:41] <CarlFK> mandriva_: product: HP EliteBook 2540p
[04:41] <sarah1> i have no idea what i've done wrong
[04:42] <shcherbak> sarah1: are you still sudoer?
[04:43] <Fezzler> KM0201>> Wow, you are good!
[04:43] <mandriva_> CarlFX: can i install ubuntu 10.10 desktop edition in HP mini 210
[04:43] <KM0201> Fezzler: handing out quality advice for over 10yrs
[04:43] <KM0201> lol
[04:43] <sandboxx> pls i need a channel for back track 4
[04:43] <CarlFK> mandriva_: no clue.
[04:43] <shcherbak> sandboxx: apparently there is #backtrack-linux chnnel
[04:44] <bucky> sarah1, sudo   Password: <your user password>
[04:44] <sandboxx> thanx
[04:44] <bucky> !sudo
[04:45] <mandriva_> shcherbak: what does i586 mean? can i install "opensuse11.3 i586" in a i386 32bit desktop
[04:47] <sarah1> i guess some folders are hidden from me in the graphical interface
[04:47] <KM0201> mandriva_: are you sure its not 686?.. if so, thats 32bit..
[04:47] <sarah1> and I don't know enough (any) commands to look at the problem
[04:48] <sarah1> one specific folder is the one xchat is supposed to download into, at /home/sarah/xchat
[04:48] <sarah1> and.. i can't navigate there visually
[04:48] <J_C> mandriva_: yes, you can
[04:48] <shcherbak> mandriva_: it architecture, i do not do pentium, but 586 system on 386 hardware is not ok.
[04:48] <CarlFK> KM0201: 386 is 32 bit too.  I am not sure what mandriva_ is up to.
[04:48] <IdleOne> sarah1: open nautilus and hit ctrl + h to view the hidden folders
[04:48] <supercom32> I'm trying to compile an ncurse example program and I keep getting test.priv.h: No such file or directly exists, but it does as the file is in the same folder I am compiling from. What gives?
[04:49] <kato> sarah1: check under view>show hidden file
[04:49] <KM0201> CarlFK: yeah, i was gonna mention that, bu i figured since he mentioned 586, it wasn't worth bringing up
[04:49] <Bluefever> Hey not to big of a problem, but just a little bothersome. There are usually Three orange clear boxes in the bottom right hand corner of the desktop, but today when I logged in I noticed they were gone, and I have no idea why. All I really want to know is how to get them back. I just changed my login yesterday, but I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
[04:49] <shcherbak> mandriva_: is it server suse?
[04:49] <sarah1> WELL THAT WAS SIMPLE
[04:49] <sarah1> dang
[04:49] <sarah1> thanks all
[04:49] <mae_tae> people, i want to find pattern of one string of other string? how will i do that?
[04:49] <FloodBot2> sarah1: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:49] <punkmexic> how can i make ubunt tu print me a .txt with the contents of a folder (using special characters (like ñ ´´´) im using this ls -R > listadearchivos.txt
[04:50] <sarah1> k thanks
[04:50] <arox> Trying to update to ubuntu netbook but it looks like xubuntu is still there.
[04:50] <shcherbak> mae_tae: cat string | grep pattent1 | grep pattern2?
[04:50] <mae_tae> something like grep -i "www.youtube.com/..*" "www.youtube.com/jtdel#/p/8/sdsd
[04:50] <syslq> arox: fcourse, you need to remove it
[04:51] <mae_tae> shcherbak, grep -i "www.youtube.com/..*" "www.youtube.com/jtdel#/p/8/sdsd
[04:52] <sacarlson> IdleOne: that's cool nautilus trick I didn't know that <ctl>+h  I didn't know that,  I was doing it the hard way,  thanks
[04:52] <arox> What's the command for that?
[04:52] <mae_tae> shcherbak, how will i do it if apply it to what im trying to do
[04:53] <J_C> does anyone know if it is possible to force an http install using a local mirror instead of one tof the official mirrors?
[04:53] <mandriva_> shcherbak: it's desktop edition
[04:53] <valke2> hi. need some help, comp had a power fail while in the middle of a copy/paste transfer. all my files i was transferring are gone. what do i do?
[04:53] <shcherbak> mae_tae: not sure what you want to do.
[04:54] <mae_tae> shcherbak, i mean how will that pattern works on a particular url, thats what im trying to do
[04:54] <CarlFK> J_C: http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/squid-deb-proxy  that what you want?
[04:54] <punkmexic> how can i make ubunt tu print me a .txt with the contents of a folder (using special characters (like ñ ´´´) im using this ls -R > listadearchivos.txt i also want to include hidden files printed
[04:54] <shcherbak> mandriva_: I guess it will do. i586 is Xeon (just checked)
[04:54] <sacarlson> J_C: I'm not sure about force but you can have a local cache on your lan and I guess if you don't give wan access I guess that might work
[04:55] <CarlFK> J_C: you will need to do one install to warm up the cache, but then the next will be from the local copy.  but it will still want to check time stamps to make sure the .deb files are up to date
[04:55] <mae_tae> shcherbak, example this pattern www.youtube.com/jtdel..* really works on www.youtube.com/jtdel#8/p/uasdfasf example
[04:55] <tushar> can any 1 tell me how to use yahoo messenger on ubuntu
[04:55] <J_C> Not really. I have a server on a private network that I'm using apt-mirror to populate. What I'm trying to do is use that mirror for the complete installation. It will initially start there, but after the apt-setup takes place it continues with official mirrors instead of mine
[04:56] <valke2> tushar, open your messenger program?
[04:56] <celthunder> tushar, pidgin or empathy?
[04:56] <vasyl> I dont know if I am asking in the right channel or not, but I was wondering if I have samba installed on a box that is the DMZ on my router, and I set hosts allow <IP_ADDRESS>/24 will it secure it from the internet or not? cause when I scan ports it still shows port 139 and 445 open (I mean when I scan it from outside my network)
[04:56] <J_C> I can get this to work with CentOS and Fedora, but not Ubuntu
[04:56] <shcherbak> mae_tae: www.youtube.com/jtdel - will work, but what is source for grep?
[04:56] <tushar> well can we use yahoo in it
[04:56] <CarlFK> J_C: check out http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/squid-deb-proxy  I use it, love it.
[04:56] <valke2> tushar, yes
[04:57] <jrmcm> tushar: you can use pidgin IM it supports all the major Instant messengers
[04:57] <sacarlson> J_C: what if you take out all repositories except your local cache?  would it still check?
[04:57] <eman2> pksadiq: it turns out the problem was that i had my hard drive connected to a gsata port instead of regular sata. gsata is a special feature on gigabyte motherboards.
[04:57]  * valke2 sighs
[04:57] <SuperPaco69> what netbios name you put?
[04:57] <KM0201> tushar: empathy should be in application/internet... you can use it for yahoo.. but it sucks.. i'd use Pidgin
[04:57] <CarlFK> J_C: mainly because it has a client that uses avahi to flip between the proxy and the normal repos, so laptops don't freak out when you take them away from the lan
[04:57] <tushar> but how to use webcam chatting application
[04:58] <pksadiq> eman2: and so it was really a hardware based problem,
[04:58] <J_C> CarlFK: Thanks, I'll look at it. Right now I've tested Ubuntu about 5 or 6 times and it never goes to my local mirror
[04:58] <CarlFK> J_C: for the install you have to specify the proxy - the installer does not use avahi.
[04:58] <mae_tae> shcherbak, ok, because what im trying to do is just to prove or validate that regular expression if that really works on a particular similar url
[04:59] <tushar> how to use webcam chatting application on messenger
[04:59] <shcherbak> mae_tae: one sec
[04:59] <CarlFK> J_C: er... yeah, and my late_install script then removes that setting so that the avahi thing works... just a sec...
[04:59] <mae_tae> shcherbak, this should be the source www.youtube.com/jtdel#8/p/uasdfasf
[04:59] <eman2> pksadiq: kinda. it shouldn't have mattered either way, because it was just a sata port with special features for RAID or something.
[04:59] <valke2> any ideas how to recover lost cut/paste files after a power fail?
[05:00] <tushar> hi its tushar
[05:00] <CarlFK> J_C: sed -i "/^Acquire::http::Proxy/s/^.*$//" $TARGET/etc/apt/apt.conf
[05:00] <tushar> i want some help
[05:00] <mae_tae> shcherbak, and this be the pattern www.youtube.com/jtdel..*, to be tested
[05:00] <shcherbak> mae_tae: cat XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX | grep -Eiorh '((abuse|Abuse)+@[[:alnum:]_]+?\.[[:alpha:].]{2,6})'
[05:00] <CarlFK> J_C: that is the complicted way of blank out the file :)
[05:00] <xud477> ubuntu wrx vs bt4
[05:01] <pksadiq> eman2: I haven't yet heard of gsata
[05:01] <valke2> tushar, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=340795
[05:01] <J_C> I'm using LinuxCOE right now. I like it and it fits the bill for my requirements, i.e. Fedora, CentOS, Ubuntu and Debian, but for some reason the Debian installs revert to the official mirrors while the rpm based ones do not, they will stay with the initial local mirror
[05:01] <valke2> tushar, btw, demanding help is poor etiquitte
[05:01] <shcherbak> mae_tae: ^^ that i use to find email in whois output --<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[05:01] <J_C> The LAN has access to both the local and outside world
[05:02] <KM0201> there's a repository out there somewhere, that has the latest gyachi in it...
[05:02] <mae_tae> shcherbak, thanks, ah ok,. thank you ill try it
[05:02] <xud477> and for medibuntu?
[05:02] <alex__c2022> Anyone here have a good way to transfer videos to from ubuntu box to jailbroken iphone?
[05:02] <xud477> thrz some change
[05:03] <eman2> pksadiq: stands for Gigabyte sata . according to my install manual, they are 6 Gb/s instead of 3 Gb/s. They are just faster i guess
[05:03] <xud477> iphone was just done to be jailbreaked
[05:04] <valke2> if anyone might have any assistance available for a cut/paste fail, it'd be wonderful. please and thanks.
[05:04] <mae_tae> shcherbak, can you give me a very simple example like cat "hello" | grep -i "h*", because the example of mine returns an error no such file or directory
[05:05] <xud477> use tcsh
[05:05] <tushar> any indian here to help on ubuntu
[05:05] <xud477> or another ¦
[05:05] <J_C> CarlFK: Unfortunately my experience with avahi is minimal, as well as debian based installs. My primary experience has been rpm based distros, not Ubuntu/Debian
[05:05] <iszak> mae_tae, use echo "hello" |
[05:05] <CarlFK> J_C: sigh.... oh yeah, read over the bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/squid-deb-proxy  mainly that the default .conf doesn't have as many repos as you would hope.
[05:05] <pksadiq> tushar: Why do you need indians only?
[05:05] <mae_tae> shcherbak,  cat "www.youtube.com/jtdel#8/p/u/asdfsfasf" grep -i "www.youtube.com/jtdel..*"
[05:05] <J_C> I'm not really sure when or how to run that apt sed routine you just mentioned
[05:05] <CarlFK> J_C: no experience necessary - it just works(tm) :)
[05:06] <PKKid> Where does Ubuntu keep the Application Menu items on disk?
[05:06] <shcherbak> mae_tae: echo Hello | grep -i "h"
[05:06] <PKKid> My googling is failing me on this one. :(
[05:06] <valke2> pkkid, are you trying to build a shortcut?
[05:07] <pksadiq> eman2: I don't usually care about the difference in 3-6Gbps, but I'm happy if I get a constant speed of 40kbps for my internet
[05:07] <J_C> CarlFK: I'll check out squiid-proxy, but will it handle or get in the way of the other installs (Redhat, etc)?
[05:07] <shcherbak> mae_tae: sorry, my bad. cat - screen file , echo - dispaly
[05:07] <CarlFK> J_C: not at all.
[05:07] <PKKid> valke2, Im trying to remove entries to something that gnome-do is picking up (im getting 3 entries for 1 application)
[05:07] <xud477> i get pee, bye
[05:07] <mae_tae> shcherbak, got it, hehehe, thanks
[05:07] <CarlFK> J_C: you have to tell apt to use it.  (either by setting a config, or installing squid-deb-proxy-client)
[05:07] <valke2> pkkid, oh okay. uno momento.
[05:08] <Nazaryn> It is 20F outside, 64F (according to thermo), yet it is freezing right here. Sensors indicate that internal temperate of the case is 38C (100F). Should I just open the side of my case and let it rip?
[05:08] <PKKid> And I deleted them from my Application menu, but im guessing they are stored someplace more general than my home dir
[05:08] <shcherbak> echo "www.youtube.com/jtdel#8/p/u/asdfsfasf" | grep -i "www.youtube.com/jtdel" -- correct one
[05:08] <Nazaryn> Or would opening side of the case disrupt airflow
[05:08] <shcherbak> mae_tae: ^^
[05:08] <eman2> pksadiq: this is the first time i built my own computer, so i wasn't even aware of these different speeds until a couple minutes ago when i checked the manual
[05:09] <shcherbak> mae_tae: also | is called pipe, and is somehow important
[05:09] <mae_tae> shcherbak, i see, ok, heheh, ill apply it
[05:09] <iszak> eman2, you probably won't get 6 GB/s
[05:09] <J_C> CarlFK: Of course I'll check it out, but how do I tell apt to use it in the middle of the install? These are basically hands-off installations, kinda like a sif file with MS
[05:10] <valke2> pkkid, question, how were they installed? wine, apt-get, aptitude, deb, etc?
[05:10] <pksadiq> eman2: did you assembled your own? how much did you reduced the cost by doing so? here, I get not more than 20$
[05:10] <eman2> iszak: don't care, i'm just happy my HD is recognized :)
[05:10] <PKKid> valke2, I installed it via their .sh installer
[05:10] <shcherbak> mae_tae: try this: ls -l ~ | grep "D"
[05:10] <PKKid> I found one entry at /usr/share/applications/... I just need to find the one other one. :)
[05:10] <J_C> CarlFK: I don't mean to bug you, I'll read up on it first to see if it fits my requirements
[05:10] <CarlFK> J_C: I use a preseed file with: d-i mirror/http/proxy string http://g2:8000/
[05:11] <pksadiq> iszak: that is Gbps and not GBps, b=bit B=byte
[05:11] <sacarlson> J_C: I've setup a local cache before but it would still get other stuff off the internet,  I think I just setup my configs so it tried to find it in my local first and if not found there start looking on the wan repositories
[05:11] <PKKid> I don't think it matters, but Komodo is installed at /opt/komodo-edit-6/...
[05:11] <eman2> pksadiq: i saved a lot of money, but that's because i got a good cpu and a gtx 460 graphics card. those are expensive when prebuilt
[05:11] <shcherbak> PKKid: is it antyvir?
[05:11] <J_C> CarlFK: Thanks, I'll have to defintely read up more on how the preseed works.
[05:11] <CarlFK> J_C: no prob - im happy to help someone set this up.  I am looking for my wiki page on it...
[05:11] <PKKid> shcherbak, huh?
[05:12] <shcherbak> PKKid: comodo what is it?
[05:12] <shcherbak> *komodo*
[05:12] <PKKid> shcherbak, Its an IDE
[05:12] <mae_tae> shcherbak, ok, hehe, its good, is this possible to like ban www.youtube.com but allow www.youtube.com/watch=...etc in squid?
[05:12] <valke2> pkkid, more than likely there is an uninstall .sh script for it/them.
[05:13] <PKKid> shcherbak, but it installs these little Application menu turds all over, and other programs are getting duplicate entries
[05:13] <iszak> pksadiq, cool story bro
[05:13] <J_C> The situation is that I'm in a fairly wide org with only one linux admin... me. And others want to be able to install for our users but they are not overly familiar with general linus installs.
[05:13] <pksadiq> eman2: and learnt many more ;), if you don't care talking more, you may carry on, but through private chat, this is just off topic
[05:13] <valke2> pkkid, google the name of the program and "uninstall script" or similar.
[05:13] <PKKid> where else are menu items stored besides /usr/share/applications?
[05:13] <J_C> So what I'm doing is creating a "one stop shop"
[05:13] <CarlFK> J_C: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet#Advanced:%20Hands-Off,%20Preseeded%20Network%20Server%20Install  very old, so the exact .conf has changed, but thats all the parts you need.  ping me when something isn't working
[05:14] <shcherbak> mae_tae: i think in squid you can just whitelist, not sure how it works with single youtube pages.
[05:14] <valke2> ?
[05:15] <J_C> CarlFK: Thanks for that... I've read some of the other preseed stuff on debian, but haven't run into this one... this will help
[05:15] <mae_tae> shcherbak, thats why im very confuse about of how do it
[05:15] <mae_tae> hehe
[05:15] <valke2> oy did this thing die?
[05:15] <yttrium> I just installed ubuntu on my Eee PC and I'm having some trouble with video.
[05:15] <yttrium> Does anyone know if there are vendor specific drivers?
[05:15] <KM0201> yttrium: probably not... video for what, webcam?
[05:15] <J_C> CarlFK: Are you familiar with Linuxcoe, http://instalinux.com ??
[05:16] <valke2> i just deleted a crap load of stuff i think. help?
[05:16] <yttrium> VLC is just running choppy
[05:16] <J_C> That is what I'm using, locally
[05:16] <KM0201> yttrium: does your netbook have a SSD?
[05:16] <PKKid> found it ~/.local/shares/applications/
[05:16] <J_C> There are some lockdowns we have to perform after install, and linuxcoe gives me that capability
[05:16] <valke2> yay for pkkid!
[05:16] <sacarlson> yttrium: did you check System>admin>hardware drivers ?
[05:16] <PKKid> interesting that grep doesn't search hidden directories.. :-/
[05:16] <yttrium> Nope, regular 250 gb hard drive
[05:17] <sprung> I want to replace the ubuntu logo in the top left of the screen with a logo of my choosing. how do i do that?
[05:17] <CarlFK> J_C: never seen it.  now that I have the pxe install working I don't have to mess with CDs, which is really nice.
[05:17] <yttrium> I did try "Additional Drivers" but nothing came up
[05:17] <yttrium> I wasn't sure if there was another place to look
[05:18] <ylmfos> asdsaskjd
[05:18] <valke2> what should one do if they cut, but did not sucessfully paste and was forced to reboot?
[05:18] <iszak> pksadiq, do you think most hard drives can read/write at ~380 MB/s?
[05:18] <ylmfos> 能说汉语么？
[05:18] <sacarlson> yttrium: if not seen at above then you could check and see what it has in it work lspci and google or ask here what is availble for it
[05:18] <maco> !cn | ylmfos
[05:18] <J_C> Unfortunately I do not have the option of pxe
[05:19] <J_C> otherwise that is what I would be doing. I have no control over DNS or DHCP in my org
[05:19] <sacarlson> J_C: you can also boot pxe with a live cd that just enable pxe boot
[05:19] <valke2> pkkid, how were you able to search hidden dirs?
[05:20] <Colin-shzsc> ylmfos: It‘s not #ubuntu-cn here
[05:20] <J_C> Yes, but I cannot do that at work, I have no ability to set that up. MS Admins control all that
[05:20] <shcherbak> mae_tae: hm...
[05:20] <CarlFK> J_C:  I think you can use etherboot to hard code in the tftp server and file name to boot.
[05:20] <ylmfos> can you speak chinese?
[05:20] <pksadiq> iszak: never, Why should I?, but it has the capability to do so, the metal wires, the small circuit problems, nearby interferences etc decreases the speed
[05:20] <Colin-shzsc> ylmfos: 这里不是中文 irc，中文请加入 #ubuntu-cn
[05:21] <iszak> pksadiq, so really it doesn't matter that much.
[05:21] <pksadiq> iszak: yes, it
[05:21] <J_C> CarlFK: I hadn't thought of that... but I'll have to check if I'm allowed to run a tftp server. We are in a heavily locked-down environment... think wikileaks :-)
[05:21] <sacarlson> J_C: well any machine can be configured to be dns and dhcp but you would have to pull your system off your works network to enable it to operate
[05:21] <gbear14275> I'm having video playback issues with a x264 1080p video and I don't think there should be any issues as this laptop has a discrete video card.  Not sure what to do but have been trying a lot of different paths to get this playing smooth... am hoping someone here might be able to help.  Tried Totem, VLC and Mplayer including looking into trying to enable vdpau hardware acceleration
[05:21] <CarlFK> J_C: the advantage would be the boot media (cd, usb, floppy?) would not change, and you could update the files on the tftp serer.  ah.. that's the problem.  right.
[05:22] <gbear14275> oops... no one is going to read that... too long :(
[05:22] <CarlFK> sacarlson: i have friends in .gov - it isn't a technical problem ;/
[05:22] <J_C> sacarlson: true, and I cannot do that as I have to serve at least 6 different network blocks
[05:22] <valke2> gbear...miro?
[05:22] <pksadiq> iszak: sorry, I meant that It's applicable for those who uses Optic Cables inside their computers, ;)
[05:22] <Kudo> hi every1, im newbie with ubuntu and i wanna ask if i can add backtrack repo to ubuntu
[05:22] <mmcthrow> Hello.  I have a question regarding core dumps in Ubuntu.  Where do I find core dump files?  I configured /etc/security/limits.conf, and the program that I am debugging does dump core, but I cannot find the core dump anywhere.
[05:22] <DrDamnit> I have a server with a CPU overheat problem. It doesn't crash as long as I don't make it do intensive stuff like zip 7GB of files. I need to replace the motherboard. Can I drop in a replacement without having to reinstall the whole OS? It is running  9.10 server.
[05:22] <sprung> how do i change the wallpaper i see before I log in?
[05:23] <J_C> CarlFK: you got it... there are "requirements"
[05:23] <tilted_mind> sprung:  try ubuntu-tweak
[05:23] <J_C> specifically security issues
[05:23] <sprung> oh i didnt know i could do that through tweak
[05:23] <CarlFK> mmcthrow: /var/ something.  but are you sure it is dumping?  there is something else that need to be set.
[05:23] <sprung> im familiar with tweak i will look for it
[05:23] <valke2> i cut docs and pasted them to my thumb drive, but my laptop shut off due to a powerfailure. any way to recover the files?
[05:23] <gbear14275> valke2: I could try another player... but am wondering if there is anything wrong with video playback in 10.10
[05:24] <gbear14275> J_C: what are you trying to do?
[05:24] <pksadiq> gbear14275: most works with totem, but for a very few I had to use xine player
[05:24] <mmcthrow> CarlFK: Unfortunately there are no core* files in /var.
[05:24] <PKKid> valke2, "grep -r foo ." instead of "grep foo *"
[05:24] <valke2> not that i can see. i bet someone else has a better idea. did you dl all gstreamer drivers?
[05:24] <mmcthrow> CarlFK: The program does return "Segmentation fault (core dumped)", but I don't know if the dump is really generated.
[05:24] <xud477> u
[05:24] <PKKid> valke2, well i missed the -r in the second example.. but you see what I mean, its . instead of *
[05:24] <CarlFK> mmcthrow: just a sec.. I think I have something that will do that...
[05:25] <CarlFK> mmcthrow: good  - I didnt't get the (core dumpted) untill I enabled whatever i twas I was talking about..
[05:25] <valke2> so thats to search hidden too pkkid? thx.
[05:25] <J_C> gbear14275: Essentially I'm building a primary mirror that is available for local updates and installs of many distros including Scientific Linux, CentOS, Redahat, Ubuntu, and Fedora, depending on the requirements/desires of the user
[05:26] <gbear14275> J_C: pm okay?
[05:26] <PKKid> valke2, yep np.  I just learned this 5 min ago myself. ;)
[05:26] <J_C> We need to control specifically what updates need to occur
[05:26] <valke2> pkkid, awesome. thanks for passing along your new found knowledge.
[05:26] <J_C> gbear14275: no sweat
[05:26] <CarlFK> mmcthrow: *** buffer overflow detected ***: tftp terminated - yay!  now to enable dumps...
[05:27] <valke2> does ubuntu have a clipboard for when cut command is used?
[05:27] <xud477> yes
[05:27] <Flynsarmy> I've installed SSH server with tasksel but telnet localhost 23 still shows there's no server running ont he port. sudo service ssh restart shows 'ssh start/running, process 14935' so no issues there...any ideas?
[05:28] <sacarlson> Flynsarmy: I think ssh is on a different port than telnet
[05:28] <valke2> xud477, so after a reboot is it dumped?
[05:29] <xud477> reboot of ssh ?
[05:29] <shcherbak> valke2: cut/copy keep just last entry, but there is some choice to extend it
[05:29] <xud477> not at all...
[05:29] <dnivra> Flynsarmy, ssh runs on port 22. just type 'ssh localhost'
[05:29] <xud477> yes
[05:29] <xud477> wath's wrong?
[05:29] <dnivra> Flynsarmy, or rather the correct syntax is 'ssh <username>@localhost'
[05:29] <xud477> yep
[05:29] <Flynsarmy> dnivra: haha yea i just realized that. i'm such a tool :) thanks heh
[05:30] <valke2> scherbak, oh crap. cut/paste gone horribly wrong. power failure in the middle of a transfer, not completed. everything is gone
[05:30] <dnivra> Flynsarmy, no problem :).
[05:30] <shcherbak> Flynsarmy: ssh <IP_ADDRESS>, firewall?
[05:30] <glcat> f
[05:30] <Bluefever> Hey not to big of a problem, but just a little bothersome. There are usually Three orange clear boxes in the bottom right hand corner of the desktop, but today when I logged in I noticed they were gone, and I have no idea why. All I really want to know is how to get them back. I just changed my login yesterday, but I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
[05:30] <Flynsarmy> Is there a way to set a chroot jail for ssh?
[05:30] <xud477> yes
[05:30] <rigved> hi everyone. i get this error when i try to sign my e-mail using evolution on ubuntu 10.04 - http://paste.ubuntu.com/543880/ i searched and found this - http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2007-December/032196.html but i cannot locate my gpg.conf file. can anyone tell me what is the name of the gpg.conf file?
[05:31] <sacarlson> Flynsarmy: apparmor ?
[05:31] <valke2> bluefever, right click, and i think it's preferences, so that you can have "workspaces" cause that's what those boxes are.
[05:31] <xud477> i dont like evolution...
[05:31] <xud477> to huge...
[05:31] <dnivra> rigved, ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf
[05:31] <xud477> use thunderb...
[05:32] <DrDamnit> I have a server with a CPU overheat problem. It doesn't crash as long as I don't make it do intensive stuff like zip 7GB of files. I need to replace the motherboard. Can I drop in a replacement without having to reinstall the whole OS? It is running  9.10 server.
[05:32] <sacarlson> DrDamnit: I would think you could
[05:32] <rigved> dnivra: i tried that. but it's still not solving the problem
[05:33] <karthick87> !panels
[05:33] <rigved> xud477: i have thunderbird too. but i want to solve this problem first, then i may consider shifting to it
[05:33]  * valke2 frustrated
[05:33] <dnivra> rigved, well that's the gpg conf file :). i don't use evolution so no clue :).
[05:34] <xud477> ok ;)  ....thbrd more light
[05:34] <sacarlson> DrDamnit: other than turn off any propriatary drivers for video and other stuf it might boot right up
[05:34] <shcherbak> valke2: what have you cut/paste?
[05:35] <rigved> dnivra: if i create a key using a 1024 DSA key instead of the current 2048 DSA key, will that solve the problem
[05:35] <valke2> shcherbak, my thesis and some other docs, all very small, at the most 10mb
[05:35] <rigved> xud477: ok
[05:35] <shcherbak> valke2: you mean files?
[05:35] <xud477> i create always 4096 rsa pair
[05:36] <shcherbak> between drives?
[05:36] <valke2> shcherbak, you bet, all open office docs.
[05:36] <pksadiq> rigved: I got not more tha http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2007-December/032196.html    , nothing new
[05:36] <dnivra> rigved, i'm not too sure since i've no clue what's the issue's root cause.
[05:36] <valke2> shcherbak, from hd to thumb drive.
[05:36] <CarlFK> mmcthrow: juser@dhcp42:/var/crash/_usr_bin_tftp.1000.crash
[05:36] <shcherbak> valke2: testdisk is first stage, to check both drives
[05:36] <DrDamnit> sacarlson: thanks. I'll try it tomorrow.
[05:37] <valke2> shcherbak, how?
[05:37] <xud477> i have'nt hard disk.... just flash :)
[05:37] <CarlFK> mmcthrow:   to get that I had to do  sudo vim /etc/default/apport;   sudo initctl start apport
[05:37] <mmcthrow> mmcthrow: How were you able to generate the dump?
[05:37] <rigved> xud477: ok. i'll try that. i just thought DSA was more secure.
[05:38] <shcherbak> valke2: you should not use drives to maximize chnces of succes. testdisk is rather simple,
[05:38] <xud477> rsa is good, if you are shure about the random generator...
[05:38] <CarlFK> mmcthrow: was that for me?
[05:38] <wrb123> my dvd drive doesnt seem to read a disc, it is acting as if the last disc i had in there is still there
[05:39] <shcherbak> valke2: seluth-kit more advanced. you can download backtrack4 and run forensic mode, good how to in on ubuntu page.
[05:39] <wrb123> refreshing doesnt seem to change anything
[05:39] <Echo> hello, anyone using avast antivirus on ubuntu?
[05:39] <mmcthrow> CarlFK: Is apport user-specific?
[05:39] <Bluefever> @valke2 I can't get an option for preferences when I right click. Any ideas?
[05:39] <wrb123> and when i try to open the old files it says cannot read from disc of course
[05:39] <Bluefever> I'm running 10.10
[05:39] <mmcthrow> CarlFK: e.g., if one user enables apport, is apport enabled for the entire system or for just that user?
[05:39] <dnivra> Echo, i doubt anyone here even uses an anti-virus :).
[05:39] <glcat> 有没有人说中文
[05:39] <CarlFK> mmcthrow: root enables it, so system wide
[05:39] <CarlFK> mmcthrow: what crashed: I installed natty, then ran tftp shaz  <<< "get pxelinux.cfg/default"
[05:39] <xud477> i'm on bt4 on ubuntu...
[05:39] <rs0832> Echo: linux doesnt normally need an antivirus .. just a firewall
[05:40] <valke2> shcherbak, bad thing about why i was doing it...i don't have internet AT ALL avail on my notebook ii was trying to transfer from. just got new comp today.
[05:40] <shcherbak> valke2: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery
[05:40] <xud477> its realy secure and so much more but less easy to use
[05:40] <Echo> how do i get firestarter to run on startup?
[05:40] <mmcthrow> Even with enabling apport, I do not see a core dump.
[05:40] <cew> hai
[05:40] <Echo> rs0832
[05:40] <dnivra> !startup  | Echo
[05:41] <rs0832> Echo: add the command to the 'startup applications' in the system >prefs menu
[05:41] <shcherbak> valke2: well whole idea is to not use notebook until you get files back or be certain that it is not possible.
[05:41] <xud477> but without gnome... on fluxbox and window maker wm
[05:41] <dnivra> okay that's outdated i guess. it's system > preferences -> startup applications Echo
[05:41] <CarlFK> mmcthrow: um...  try asking in #ubuntu-bugs.
[05:41] <wrb123> i think i might try to learn Java and Eclipse... has anyone else done this? was it easy/hard?
[05:41] <Echo> k
[05:41] <mmcthrow> CarlFK: Thank you; I'll check that out.
[05:42] <nirazio> Is it possible to repair windows 7 MBR from ubuntu????
[05:42] <xud477> java with or without eclipse is good...
[05:42] <Sameyeam> I want to reinstall Ubuntu but don't want to dl all the updates since launch. How do I safe them before I reinstall?
[05:42] <tibaal89> wrb123: what languages do you know now?
[05:42] <wrb123> tibaal89 basically C from when i was in college several years ago, and PHP seems boring and too easy because i already know all the basics of it
[05:42] <xud477> MBR .... use dd/linux command 446 or more bytes
[05:42] <rigved> wrb123: java is good and easy. for queries ask in ##programmin
[05:43] <valke2> shcherbak, true. thankfully it's not a failed harddrive or a failed thumb drive. it's just, if the power cord get's juggled, it all dies.
[05:43] <Bluefever> Never mind I got it.
[05:43] <dnivra> Sameyeam, i doubt you can. few of the archives would be stored in /var/cache/apt but the directory gets cleaned periodically. however you can back up all the names of the packages installed currently and restore them easily.
[05:43] <Bluefever> Thanks !
[05:43] <rs0832> nirazio: no you need the windows 7 disc for that
[05:43] <wrb123> tibaal89 and i used VBA at a previous job out of boredom
[05:43] <rigved> wrb123: java is good and easy. for queries ask in ##programming
[05:43] <wrb123> rigved okay thank you
[05:43] <rigved> wrb123: also ##java
[05:43] <xud477> in synaptic you can specify do not clean archives/cache
[05:43] <tibaal89> wrb123: java is very easy to learn the basics... i picked up a book that was great, and it was very easy
[05:43] <wrb123> cool :)
[05:44] <dnivra> xud477, what's the point if it's already cleaned up :)?
[05:44] <wrb123> thanks that's encouraging
[05:44] <shcherbak> valke2: i think, scalpel and foremost will do job
[05:44] <CarlFK> wrb123: python is easier and way more enjoyable. but not as much market.
[05:44] <mister_m> why are my downloads so slow when I do an apt-get upgrade
[05:44] <nirazio> rs0832: But I don't have Win7 DVD at this moment. Any way to do same from Ubuntu?
[05:44] <xud477> its too late, but you can re-install, ... more complicated...
[05:44] <valke2> shcherbak, thanks. i'll see what i can do.
[05:45] <xud477> have to set synaptic at the first install...
[05:45] <dnivra> mister_m, the server could be under a lot of load, your connection may not be fast.
[05:45] <xud477> i can help for win7 or even any else win... years without this sh.....
[05:46] <rs0832> nirazio: i dont think so..
[05:46] <SuperPaco69> how do I install hardware drivers apps??
[05:46] <xud477> try wine on ubuntu or bt4
[05:47] <xud477> same drive as ubuntu... try ubuntu 10.10
[05:47] <wrb123> CarlFK: why more enjoyable?
[05:48] <rs0832> nizario: you can install grub and use it to boot windows i think
[05:49] <xud477> yes
[05:49] <shcherbak> SuperPaco69: you mean jockey?
[05:49] <shcherbak> !jockey > shcherbak
[05:49] <nirazio> rs0832: Can you help me then
[05:50] <rs0832> nizario: i m not experienced with grub.. but ill try
[05:50] <xud477> grub is installed with ubuntu anyway :)
[05:50] <Jordan_U> nirazio: Yes you can, but only the mbr and in some cases pbr. What happened exactly?
[05:50] <wrb123> cases of pbr? mmm
[05:50] <xud477> you can loose the "hard garanty"...
[05:51] <xud477> so keep before de MBR in carry file...
[05:51] <xud477> this is palladium effect...

[05:57] <glcat> ex-chat
[05:57] <dnivra> glcat, what are you trying to do?
[05:57] <glcat> Ex-Chat
[05:57] <mister_m> can I get a list of processes that are communicating over the internet?
[05:57] <dnivra> mister_m, i guess you're looking for netstat.
[05:57] <glcat> Away
[05:58] <bluebird> oh, i'm sorry. but it's too cold.
[05:58] <xud477> netstat -anpvlt
[05:58] <dnivra> bluebird, that's no reason to swear. my internet usage's almost done. doesn't mean i swear :).
[05:58] <mister_m> how can I paste into the terminal without right clicking and selecting paste
[05:58] <wrb123> it's so cold my case temperature is 18 C
[05:59] <IdleOne> mister_m: ctrl-shift-v
[05:59] <mister_m> thanks guys
[05:59] <xud477> with the mouse...????
[05:59] <xud477> yes col..... it frozen snow here
[05:59] <SuperPaco69> how do I install hardware drivers apps the ubuntu server does not come with it
[06:00] <xud477> apt-get install ...
[06:00] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, System -> Administration -> Additional Drivers might help.
[06:00] <xud477> using ssh connection
[06:00] <mister_m> If I create an alias, will it be there the next time I start my computer?
[06:00] <SuperPaco69> dnivra, is not there in the server I need the coomand
[06:01] <dnivra> mister_m, if you add it to '~/.bashrc' yeah i guess so.
[06:01] <cquaid> mister_m: yes and no
[06:01] <xud477> alias or link? ... a do not know "aLIAS" ON LINUX
[06:01] <cquaid> lol
[06:01] <dnivra> xud477, alias for few commands commonly used. that's possible.
[06:01] <mister_m> why yes and no
[06:01] <rww> xud477: type 'help alias'
[06:01] <xud477> aaaahh ok alias on tcshrc or others....
[06:01] <cquaid> mister_m: there's also a command called netstat
[06:01] <pksadiq> mister_m: CRTL + SHIFT + V
[06:01] <wrb123> i need to find a tutorial that goes over all the things about linux im not familiar with coming from windows, like the various folders, shortcuts, what rc is reference to in bashrc, etc.
[06:01] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, not there in the server? you might want to go to the site of the hardware and search then.
[06:01] <xud477> aproposalias ;9 ok... just hqave forget it
[06:02] <pksadiq> mister_m: sorry, I missed IdleOne
[06:02] <cquaid> netstat -t   (for tcp connections) and netstat -u  (for udp connections?)
[06:02] <SuperPaco69> dniva... is not there
[06:02] <xud477> netstat -anpvlt -------done all service working or waiting
[06:03] <xud477> ...socket open... etc.
[06:03] <SuperPaco69> dnivra, what site???
[06:04] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, you're trying to install a driver for some hardware right? the site of the manufacturer of the hardware.
[06:04] <cquaid> xud477: wow: -vtplan
[06:04] <cquaid> (very trendy)
[06:05] <fanzhen> does anyone here build android os  on ubuntu10?
[06:05] <cquaid> no no -tvplan
[06:05] <rigved> wrb123: there are quite a few places that you can bookmark - http://beginlinux.com/ https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/keeping-safe/C/index.html http://ucasts.tv/
[06:05] <xud477> lol
[06:05] <xud477> same switch...
[06:06] <dnivra> !manual | wrb123
[06:06] <cquaid> xud477: likes to see 'everything'
[06:06] <SuperPaco69> dnivra, yes
[06:06] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, so head to the manufacturer's site and you'll find the linux driver mostly.
[06:06] <xud477> not everithing, but netstat for net.services
[06:07] <SuperPaco69> dnivra, but is there ???
[06:07] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, search for it. i don't know :).
[06:07] <infid> how come sometimes i can use -f to overwrite an existing symlink and othertimes it doesn't change it?
[06:07] <SuperPaco69> dnivra, but is there a way to install a hardware driver app??
[06:07] <wrb123> thanks rigved and dnivra
[06:08] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, a hardware driver app?
[06:08] <xud477> actualy i just have...
[06:08] <xud477> Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address         State       PID/Program name
[06:08] <xud477> tcp        0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:44192     <IP_ADDRESS>:8001        ESTABLISHED 8125/xchat
[06:08] <wrb123> does anyone know if there's a program for linux that will allow me to "securely delete" a file once it goes to the recycle bin, or just with a right-click option, writing 0s or random data where the file was?
[06:08] <dnivra> !paste | xud477
[06:08] <xud477> 8125 is the pid...
[06:08] <cquaid> its called shred wrb123
[06:09] <xud477> ok
[06:09] <Jordan_U> infid: What is the exact command you're running?
[06:09] <cquaid> there's a nautilus script for it too - so you can right-click - goto nautiluscripts
[06:10] <xud477> nautilus script or command in console/terminal
[06:11] <SuperPaco69> dnivra, yes... the app in Ubuntu that install drivers
[06:11] <SuperPaco69> jockey-gtk
[06:11] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, yeah jockey-gtk what about it?
[06:11] <infid> Jordan_U: ln -s ../test/foo foo -f
[06:11] <fanzhen> hey guys ,what games  do you play on ubuntu?
[06:11] <SuperPaco69> how can Iinstall it to my server dnivra ??
[06:12] <infid> fanzhen: sudoku
[06:12] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, you're running ubuntu server? jockey-gtk has a gui while server edition doesn't. i'm not familiar with the CLI version of jockey-gtk.
[06:12] <fanzhen> could it play with others on line?
[06:13] <SuperPaco69> dnivra, I have a GUI on the server... how can I install jockey-gtk     by apt-get install??
[06:13] <xud477> linux is not made realy good for games.. but... gnome have a set and X11R6, and others...
[06:13] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, yeah i guess so.
[06:13] <SuperPaco69> ok
[06:13] <SuperPaco69> dnivra, thanks!
[06:14] <fanzhen> infid: i will search it
[06:14] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, sorry i didn't get what you meant :). no problem.
[06:14] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, and why do you have a GUI on the server edition?
[06:14] <Gnea> !flash
[06:14] <cquaid> games lol americas army
[06:14] <SuperPaco69> dnivra, because i need several graphical apps there like VM
[06:15] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, i thought a server was meant to be CLI only. oh well!
[06:15] <xud477> ubuntu is modular... server + de4sktop + studio + all you want free on llinux...
[06:15] <SuperPaco69> dnivra, ofcourse not why you think that lol!
[06:15] <xud477> but for the games... its ppoor
[06:15] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, GUI does take a lot of RAM and other resources a server could save on.
[06:16] <SuperPaco69> a server has a lot of ram dnivra !!
[06:16] <sacarlson> SuperPaco69: you might be able to use jockey-text as I have seen in this post http://superuser.com/questions/40017/jockey-gtk-on-startup
[06:16] <cquaid> there are some games
[06:16] <SuperPaco69> so just by apt-get install sacarlson ??
[06:16] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, i know above 6GB for sure. but server's are under a lot of load right?
[06:17] <SuperPaco69> dnivra, there are a lot of types of servers right??
[06:17] <xud477> search game on synaptic or apt-cache search ...
[06:17] <sacarlson> SuperPaco69: example? jockey-text -e firmware:b43
[06:17] <dnivra> SuperPaco69, i'm no server expert :). i'm just a regular desktop edition user :). still i guess yeah-cloud server, farms and stuff exist.
[06:18] <xud477> i dont know games anyway...
[06:18] <Nazaryn> Wow guys, Docky is fantastic; and one of the panel apps allows me to set stepping on my laptop to scale processor clock and control battery usage! Amazing!
[06:18] <wrb123> my computer fan is too loud :(
[06:18] <SuperPaco69> sacarlson thanks!!!
[06:18] <cquaid> xud477: would wolfenstein and america's army and wesnoth be on synaptic??
[06:18] <cquaid> that's great service man"
[06:18] <dnivra> cquaid, wesnoth is i believe
[06:18] <rs0832> wrb123: try cleaning it... dust does that
[06:18] <fanzhen> like this one
[06:18] <fanzhen> wesnoth
[06:18] <fanzhen> have installed it
[06:19] <dnivra> !info wesnoth | cquaid
[06:19] <xud477> install a desktop, and after that the server edition... like xubuntu and ubuntustudio... it worx
[06:19] <SuperPaco69> dnivra, you are right
[06:19] <SuperPaco69> sacarlson, thanks a lot!!!
[06:19] <wrb123> rs0832 it's a brand new 99-cent fan so maybe it is just loud :D
[06:19] <rs0832> wrb123: :)
[06:20] <cquaid> I googled "top games for linux" and found a great page one time, and in the comments they were naming heaps of other ones they said were cool
[06:20] <xud477> cquaid -- i do not know games and i'm actualy not on a pure ubuntu machine...
[06:20] <rs0832> cquaid: if you like rts then warzone 2100
[06:21] <efix> i'm gonna wait another 5years till i play serious v-games on linux...
[06:21] <xud477> yes exist games but have to install without synapptic some times
[06:22] <efix> seriously they all look like 5yrs old games...
[06:22] <marvin_> i use  visual boy advance for games
[06:22] <cquaid> I say donate to crossover for the futre of linux!
[06:22] <efix> i'm game :)
[06:23] <cquaid> lol, does linux really have a futre?
[06:23] <klowny> valve denies claims for linux compat! yay!
[06:24] <xud477> yes, for nuclear central :) or NASA or CERN or ...
[06:24] <sacarlson> cquaid: if man has a future then so does linux
[06:24] <Chakravanti> cquaid, megaglest>wz2100 for rts
[06:25] <Chakravanti> speaking of the future of open source though.... http://www.osnews.com/comments/24136
[06:25] <Chakravanti> "FBI Added Secret Backdoors to OpenBSD IPSEC"
[06:25] <cquaid> (lol I was just joking about the typo) ( I believe in linux to the fullest)
[06:25] <cquaid> ouch"
[06:25] <xud477> yes sacarlson :)
[06:26] <redgetan> i can't booting into my ubuntu (dual boot via wubi): message says "Try hda(0,0) FAT16: No wubildr, Try hda(0,1) NTFS5: "
[06:26] <rww> !ot
[06:26] <Echo_> does anyone know the alternative to dreamweaver?
[06:26] <xud477> i have also 1.4 G backdoor of the file insurance.aes256 of Assange... ;)
[06:27] <cquaid> Chakravanti: that is insane
[06:27] <marvin_> is it normal to have problems with java in ubuntu?
[06:28] <xud477> marvin... not at all... java worx on ubuntu, with or withoout eclipse...
[06:28] <efix> Echo_: net beans, blue fish, Quanta...
[06:28] <xud477> you have also netbeans... or gedit / console
[06:28] <Echo_> efix which do you prefer?
[06:29] <marvin_> i keep on getting errors on loading files
[06:29] <xud477> me i prefer gedit and console... buti'm oldman...
[06:29] <maclin> anyone running 10.10 on a Macbook Pro early 2008 (bare metal, not in a vm)?
[06:29] <maclin> how compatible is it?
[06:30] <efix> i use gedit ;)
[06:30] <mister_m> I have a .sh file that starts a game. How can I get it to appear in my Applications>Games menu?
[06:30] <Echo_> lol xud477 im not so young either :)
[06:30] <Chakravanti> Echo_, no, but it IS common to have problems with IcedTea.  I still have no clue why they put IcedTea in 'restricted extras' since it isn't restricted.  But you know this?
[06:30] <xud477> i  d not use macintosh since a long time for ubuntu... DRM and so obfuscated things...
[06:30] <Chakravanti> You have to enable partner repos, uninstall IcedTea and install Sun Java
[06:30] <xud477> echo_ --- lol :)
[06:31] <xud477> sun java yes... (oracle... hum saled)
[06:31] <Echo_> nah dont know much im a noob to linux but after looking at the screenshots pretty sure i can adapt
[06:32] <xud477> i'm shure too
[06:32] <chandru_in> I use acidrip to rip DVDs for backup.  I find that mencoder is skipping a lot of frames when I see the debug log.  Is there a way to avoid this?
[06:32] <Chakravanti> Echo_, then your problems with java are likely actually with iced tea, install ACTUAL java and your problems should disapear
[06:32] <Jordan_U> Chakravanti: I would guess that it's because people were used to java being installed when they installed ubuntu-restricted-extras, so when they decided to prefer IcedTea over Sun Java they didn't remove "installing java" as part of the task of installing restricted-extras.
[06:32] <marvin_> megamek gives me this         Could not initialise:
[06:32] <marvin_> java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
[06:32] <xud477> acidrip work very well, and install also handbrake :)
[06:32] <Chakravanti> Jordan_U, yeah, it's rather asinine imho
[06:32] <Echo_> kool
[06:33] <Chakravanti> but a minor thing considering how awesome ubuntu is =)
[06:33] <chandru_in> xud477, The problem is acid rip (mencoder rather) dropping a lot of frames during conversion.
[06:33] <xud477> marvin_ ... seem just a story of CLASSPATH...
[06:34] <xud477> yes chandru_in or use dvdcpy and cat the .VOB piped in ffmpeg...
[06:34] <xud477> sometimes one sometimes the other one...
[06:35] <marvin_> yea but something similar happens with arduino
[06:35] <Echo_> im putting my 2 cents in devede worked for me ..
[06:36] <chandru_in> ok thanks xud477.  but what could be causing the frame skips?
[06:38] <xud477> industrials....
[06:38] <xud477> in this case i use handbrake in local for .mkv or m4v and after that a ffmpeg
[06:41] <xud477> i have to quite, i'm using an unknown wifi and have to install java on bt4/kernel(ubuntu),,.
[06:41] <Echo_> for sho liking bluefish LOL love at first sight hehehe
[06:44] <xud477> thx, c u later :)
[06:46] <mister_m> why is it that downloading updates takes FOREVER
[06:49] <Owner> hello

[06:51] <Owner> ?
[06:51] <Owner> thanks
[06:52] <infid> i want to share my /home/infid directory, i dont have to make it owned by 'nobody' do i?
[06:52] <infid> for some reason the tutorial i'm reading says to make it owned by nobody.nogroup but it's my home dir so obviously teh files should be owned by infid:infid. will that matter?
[06:53] <zenbuntu> hi all

[06:55] <jerrybowling> I am curious if any of you use a android phone as a wifi mouse for ubuntu, if so, details please!!!
[06:55] <jerrybowling> thx
[06:56] <uiuiui172> Can you use an iPod touch as 1
[06:56] <jerrybowling> if i had one...
[06:58] <infid> what the hec, i have apt-get install samba, and i have /etc/samba/smb.cnf, yet i have no service named 'samba' in /etc/init.d/

[07:02] <jerrybowling> anyone use a wifi mouse or gmote???
[07:02] <rigved> Abhish: you are welcome
[07:04] <rww> Kartagis: install the 'boinc-manager' package, then open Boinc Manager and attach to the SETI@home project. It'll download the app itself. Using the one in the repos is probably not the best idea.
[07:05] <rigved> which is better? DSA-E 2048 or RSA 2048?

[07:16] <Nick_Meister> hi guys, i have a folder and within that folder a ton of other folders, say i want to move out all the .jpg files from the numerous folders into one folder how would i do that?
[07:17] <gobbe> silv3r_m00n: | xargs kate
[07:17] <rww> I don't think xargs is going to be useful here.

[07:18] <abe> Hi, I want to install cheese from software center. It gives error message that "Requires installation of untrusted packages", how can I install cheese on ubuntu 10.10?
[07:18] <gobbe> rww: well, atleast it does what is asked :)
[07:18] <rww> nope

[07:18] <silv3r_m00n> git diff master collab/master | xargs kate
[07:18] <silv3r_m00n> kate: Unknown option 'git'.
[07:18] <gobbe> yes
[07:18] <gobbe> the output is not file
[07:18] <rww> silv3r_m00n: ah, 'man kate' reveals the -i argument. try whatever | kate -i
[07:18] <gobbe> there is more in output than just a filename
[07:18] <dena> hi
[07:19] <gobbe> i don't know git

[07:19] <ubusammyn150> wubi installer download nopt working for me?
[07:21] <Blinkiz> Am looking for a tool that can measure packet drops along a traceroute path. Like a ping plotter. Any suggestions?
[07:21] <rww> Blinkiz: you might find 'mtr' useful. I believe it's installed by default on Ubuntu.
[07:22] <EvilPhoenix> how can I play MP4 files on 10.04.1?
[07:22] <KindOne> try vlc player ?
[07:22] <EvilPhoenix> WITHOUT vlc
[07:22] <EvilPhoenix> it segv's
[07:22] <rww> Blinkiz: (there's a GUI version, but I find the command-line one a lot more useful. Try mtr -t if you get the GUI one when you run it.)
[07:22] <EvilPhoenix> at least on my system
[07:23] <Blinkiz> rww, OMG! It's perfect!
[07:23] <rww> :)
[07:24] <Blinkiz> rww, I have been looking for this for ages!
[07:24] <uiuiui172> I love linux
[07:24] <rww> Blinkiz: if you want to see how things are changing over time, hit the D key (Display mode)
[07:24] <dena> linux like it
[07:25] <uiuiui172> Anyone know how to speed up windows 7 in VMPlayer?
[07:25] <dena> if upgrade linux lose data or no?
[07:26] <rww> dena: Not if it works properly. You should make backups anyway.
[07:26] <Blinkiz> rww, Do you know if mtr can use ICMP ECHO probes also? Like traceroute -I?
[07:26] <dena> ok thanks u very much
[07:27] <rww> Blinkiz: according to the manpage, it uses ICMP ECHO by default. mtr -u replaces that with UDP datagrams.
[07:28] <Pokit> Hey.  I'm having a problem with multitouch.  I'm using 10.10, and when I log in multitouch won't work (sometimes the cursor goes berserk when I have more than 1 finger on the touch pad).  When I lock the screen and come back, it works...
[07:28] <uiuiui172> How would I go about DOSing and crashing my server to test security
[07:29] <ubusammyn150> me not able to download wubi.exe from ubuntu =c
[07:29] <uiuiui172> Let's use big boy language
[07:29] <Pokit> ubusammyn150 what do you mean?  Did you download the iso from the website?
[07:29]  * breadcrumb slaps ubusammyn150 around a bit with a large trout
[07:30] <ubusammyn150> no me use big cave club on you! rawr!
[07:30] <YarrWolfie> anyone have some recomendations to make Wine work for Eve ?  The net says it's possible but I've had zero luck sofar
[07:30] <infid> can i name my samba workgroup anything in smb.cnf? it's currently the default of 'WORKGROUP' yet when i try to mount it it says 'mount error(6): No such device or address'
[07:30] <ubusammyn150> me can not use downloed iso's, my thumb to huge for usb!
[07:31] <ubusammyn150> and flash things
[07:31] <ubusammyn150> prontous breaks them =/
[07:31] <Pokit> Is anyone familiar with using multitouch?  I'm using 10.10, and when I log in multitouch won't work (sometimes the cursor goes berserk when I have more than 1 finger on the touch pad).  When I lock the screen and come back, it works...
[07:31] <Sameyeam> ubusammyn150, calm down!
[07:31] <uiuiui172> Put iso on disk
[07:31] <Pokit> ubusammyn150: do you have a blank cd lying around that you can burn the ISO onto?
[07:31] <Sameyeam> ubusammyn150, take a ice age pill
[07:32] <uiuiui172> Seriously use a disk
[07:32] <Pokit> ^
[07:32] <ubusammyn150> i smashed those round shiny things to pieces! netbook not use cd! last it tried usb-boot was blocked
[07:32] <deww>   infid pretty sure you can.
[07:32] <Pokit> ubusammyn150, ok troll more
[07:33] <ubusammyn150> pokeit poke elsewhere
[07:33] <Pokit> Is anyone here familiar with seeing up multitouch (2 finger scrolling on laptop touchpad) with 10.10?  I'm having problems getting it to work right
[07:34] <ubusammyn150> um
[07:34] <ubusammyn150> use two fingers?
[07:34] <breadcrumb> thats what she said..
[07:34] <ubusammyn150> it has a diagram..
[07:34] <Pokit> hmm.. Looks like the channel has been invaded by children
[07:34] <rww> Everyone quit with the unhelpful comments, please.
[07:35] <Pokit> just mute them
[07:35] <ubusammyn150> rww: seriouly it has a diagram on the mouse spot...
[07:35] <ubusammyn150> two finger scrolling it nice
[07:35] <rww> ubusammyn150: Consider reading the "When helping: be helpful" part of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines
[07:36] <ubusammyn150> =o
[07:36] <ubusammyn150> !o4o|rww
[07:36] <rww> ubusammyn150: What about it?
[07:36] <ubusammyn150> =p
[07:36] <DerSeppel> Hi there! I rebooted a machine yesterday and I suddently cannot login anymore.  I shouldn't need to poke you about this ;P
[07:37] <DerSeppel> spinningcompass: no, a server.
[07:37] <spinningcompass> DerSeppel: Did you recently update the kernel?
[07:37] <ubusammyn150> i was trying to be a cave man.. it got more attention to my download issue xD
[07:38] <DerSeppel> spinningcompass: yes.
[07:38] <rww> ubusammyn150: Attention-seeking behavior isn't a good idea in here.
[07:38] <spinningcompass> DerSeppel: Try adding 'nohz=off' to the command-line params to the kernel & see if that fixes the problem.
[07:38] <Cynderblock> I think Skype forced me to get the new Beta version.. and now its freezing up on me.  Its not real ssh shell thoug
[07:40] <DerSeppel> spinningcompass: i cant use any editors on that shell
[07:40] <mister_m> Pokit, as far as I know they are fullscreen
[07:40] <infid> where in smb.cnf do you specify a share name?
[07:40] <mister_m> Pokit, can I force them to be something else?
[07:40] <Pokit> mister_m: not sure.  I haven't tried gaming in linux
[07:41] <deww> infid: you'll see it as [share name]
[07:41] <Cynderblock> Is there a way I can fix my skype from freezing up?
[07:41] <mister_m> Pokit, can I hide the gnome panels?
[07:42] <infid> deww i dont see that anywhere in smb.conf
[07:42] <DerSeppel> spinningcompass: you were kind of quick with a possible answer, is that a "known problem" ?
[07:43] <Pokit> mister_m: there is an option to auto-hide gnome panels
[07:43] <deww> infid: create it :)
[07:43] <mister_m> Pokit, where?
[07:43] <Pokit> mister_m: right click on panel, go to properties, then click autohide
[07:43] <infid> deww the comments in smb.conf say that the username will be teh name of the share by default but that's not working for me either
[07:43] <spinningcompass> DerSeppel: It is with the right combination of hardware and software. Certain motherboards (esp. those in certain netbooks) don't like the advanced power-saving code in the latest kernels. "nohz=off" disables it, at the expense of power savings.
[07:44] <DerSeppel> spinningcompass: its a root machine that has been running a while now. real server hardware.
[07:44] <deww> infid: hmm i am looking at the smb.conf, it looks to be commented out. it's actually quite a bit to read there
[07:45] <Smurfie> Craaaaaaap.
[07:45] <Smurfie> o.o
[07:46] <Pokit> Anyone familiar with using multitouch in 10.10?  When i first login, multitouch will not work (multiple fingers on touchpad makes the cursor go berserk), but if I lock the screen and come back, multitouch magically works!
[07:46] <unRuhe> hey there
[07:46] <infid> deww i'm not seeing anything when i search for 'share name'
[07:46] <xud477> yyep
[07:46] <DerSeppel> spinningcompass: the machine is running fine, apart from the login issue. is there a way to verify the issue before addin the kernel parameter?
[07:46] <xud477> i just installed java on bt4/ubuntu kern4l :)
[07:46] <deww> infid: you wont explicitly find the literal "share name"
[07:47] <spinningcompass> DerSeppel: If it's the login issue alone, it's unlikely to be the issue I'm talking about. I've made a mistake.
[07:47] <infid> deww i'm not seeing anything that indicates how i can set a share name
[07:47] <xud477> share name ? in which context ?
[07:47] <infid> samba
[07:48] <spinningcompass> DerSeppel: If it freezes at authentication, could there be a problem w/ file permissions, domain name resolution. ...?
[07:48] <infid> i'm setting up a samba server and need to name a share something, i have the other share options such as path, comment, browseable..
[07:48] <xud477> inode shared physicaly ?
[07:48] <infid> but i need an actual name so i can tell people what to smbmount
[07:48] <evilsee_> Hi, does anyone else have a problem with the skype client silently crashing?
[07:48] <Smurfie> Yes
[07:48] <Smurfie> I do
[07:48] <numberto> Hello everybody. Can anybody advise me a tool to monitor internet traffic on my ubuntu 10.04. I need a tool which will tell me what is connected to internet (skype, mozilla and etc) and tell me how much it downloaded
[07:48] <Smurfie> Or ..am.
[07:48] <deww> infid: ok on top of where you defined all that, put in [infids files]
[07:48] <DerSeppel> spinningcompass: file permission problems should be visible in the auth.log dont they?
[07:48] <deww> or something
[07:48] <infid> it's supposed to be their username by default i've read but when they try it it says 'mount error(6) no such device or address'
[07:48] <Smurfie> It keeps freezing.
[07:49] <evilsee_> smurfie: yes
[07:49] <xud477> cp -arl ... ?
[07:49] <spinningcompass> DerSeppel: I would say so. Do you have access to auth.log?
[07:49] <evilsee_> the onlye way I know its broken is when I notice the CPU usage goes up
[07:49] <Smurfie> Any idea how to fix it?... or is there a way?
[07:49] <infid> deww well i already put a label on it called [main share] but that's not the share name right, since it has spaces in it
[07:49] <DerSeppel> spinningcompass: yes, as SFTP via ssh2 is working ... strangely
[07:49] <evilsee_> no, I have no idea
[07:49] <infid> that's just a configuration file label for config file parsing
[07:49] <Smurfie> Ah, ok.
[07:50] <evilsee_> I was hoping someone here might have a solution
[07:50] <drygulch> Hello
[07:50] <infid> deww: oh what that actually worked, when i took the spaces out
[07:50] <Smurfie> evilsee_, did Skype force you into the new Beta version?
[07:50] <Smurfie> Because it did with me.. just a few hours ago.
[07:50] <deww> the space should work, but...
[07:51] <infid> thanks deww :)
[07:51] <deww> (looking this up)
[07:51] <evilsee_> no I wasnt forced it anything
[07:51] <infid> went right over my head
[07:51] <evilsee_> I downloaded it a while back
[07:51] <evilsee_> Smurfie what version do you have?
[07:51] <Smurfie> 2.1
[07:51] <unRuhe> I dont get how to format my usbstick, to format i have to umount. but when I umount the display-backlight goes off and /dev/sdc disappears. so i have to remount to make it reappear then i have to umount to format wich makes /dev/sdc disappear si have to remount... argh I'm in a loop here
[07:51] <Smurfie> That's the new Beta version, isn't it?
[07:52] <DerSeppel> spinningcompass: i cant see any problems in auth.log, another strange thing is, the sessions are open and kept alive. "who" shows me that there are even sessions left open from yesterday.
[07:52] <FishFace> Dual core processor. Resource center (applet in tool bar) says one of the processors is at 100%. But going directly to the resource center, not much is showing. How can I find out why this 100% is showing?
[07:53] <xud477> im asleep, a++
[07:53] <evilsee_> smurfie: I have <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:54] <Smurfie> Oo.. my thing only says 2.1.. and nothing after that. Weird.
[07:54] <sacarlson> FishFace: try the command top
[07:54] <ServerTechLaptop> I have two ethernet cards. One is inbuilt on the motherboard. Can i disable the inbuilt one?
[07:54] <Smurfie> evilsee_, do you know the command in terminal to reset it?
[07:54] <ejv> help! my login is totally hung, just says "Cancelling..." how do I restart the session without hurting the other currently running gnome-sessions ?
[07:55] <evilsee_> I just normally kill the skype process
[07:55] <sacarlson> ServerTechLaptop: yes go into bios and disable it at preboot
[07:55] <evilsee_> ps aux | grep skype
[07:55] <deww> unRuhe: do this (i just tried it), bring up a terminal, sudo umount /dev/sdc1
[07:55] <evilsee_> then
[07:55] <FishFace> sacarlson: Whoa! apt-get is at 87%. Dont know why.
[07:55] <evilsee_> kill -9 the processid
[07:55] <ServerTechLaptop> sacarlson, ok thanks
[07:55] <evilsee_> there are normally two
[07:55] <unRuhe> deww: thx i try
[07:55] <Smurfie> Yea, I tried that.. a friend who's on skype tells me that it still shows me as 'online'
[07:55] <DerSeppel> spinningcompass: name resolution seems to be working too ...
[07:55] <evilsee_> hmm
[07:56] <evilsee_> Im not sure then
[07:56] <ServerTechLaptop> sacarlson, thanks it worked
[07:56] <YiMing> Hi,Is there a way to view server's current date and time,for example:cdimage.ubuntu.com?
[07:56] <DerSeppel> spinningcompass: ans since the "unix like" shell from WinSCP is working, i'd say it is a sshd problem ... just dont know where to look at right now ...
[07:56] <infid> deww looks like some people insert \040 for the space
[07:57] <infid> doesnt work for me though
[07:57] <sacarlson> YiMing: try the command date
[07:57] <infid> think thats just for fstab
[07:58] <FishFace> All 'killed'. Thanks :)
[07:58] <YiMing> sacarlson: ok,thanks.
[07:58] <deww> infid: i'm going hunt down my old config, pretty sure i didn't use spaces.
[07:59] <infid> deww: i just swrapped it in quotes and it worked
[07:59] <infid> eg "\\hostname\\share name"
[07:59] <deww> nice
[07:59] <infid> for bash
[07:59] <infid> supposed to use \040 for fstab
[08:00] <DerSeppel> spinningcompass: no idea?
[08:01] <infid> deww, i meant "\\\\hostname\\share name"
[08:02] <An_Ony_Moose> in unetbootin, are the HdMedia ubuntu versions installations that preserve the data even after a unetbootin device has been rebooted?
[08:03] <wrd> infid: '\\hostname\shared_name' makes you less escape insane :)
[08:04] <unRuhe> deww: now in gparted right when I run the formatting. the display light goes off, it says "...calibrating failed" and after that "no such device /dev/sdc" is it that my mp3player-usb-stick just sucks?
[08:04] <YiMing> sacarlson: sorry,but i found date command can only view local date,and i hope to view a remote server's(such as cdimage.ubuntu.com) date.
[08:04] <deww> unRuhe: probably /dev/sdc1 if it's partitioned
[08:05] <unRuhe> deww: it is partitioned currently 1 fat16 partition
[08:05] <Snookie1> i need help with broken packages
[08:06] <wrd> Snookie1: what did you doo?
[08:06] <Pokit> Anyone familiar with using multitouch in 10.10?  When i first login, multitouch will not work (multiple fingers on touchpad makes the cursor go berserk), but if I lock the screen and come back, multitouch magically works!
[08:06] <sacarlson> YiMing: you would have to ssh into the server and use that command to see it from that server
[08:07] <deww> unRuhe: oh i see what you mean. you're using t he nice graphical version of gparted... hmm. it could be a flakey device. got another usb drive you can spare for testing?
[08:07] <YiMing> sacarlson: ok.
[08:07] <maco> Pokit: sounds like a bug
[08:07] <olskolirc> anyone here have mysql?
[08:08] <olskolirc> i can't send to the mysql channel
[08:08] <Snookie1> wrd:  tried to install libiphone, or something around the lines of libmux, then i had the broken packages warning
[08:08] <unRuhe> deww: sure to find one, if it works with the other i just throw this one against the wall. thx very much for your help
[08:08] <lei> what is it?
[08:09] <deww> unRuhe: when you plug in the drive, it shows up in gparted right? (drop down menu). then you select the partition you wanna format and it should say /dev/sdc1
[08:09] <wrd> Snookie1: where did you get that?
[08:09] <Snookie1> wrd: i ran synaptic and deleted the broken package, however that did nothing
[08:09] <wrd> Snookie1: whats your current state ?
[08:09] <Snookie1> wrd: whenever i try installing anything from a synaptic package
[08:09] <Snookie1> wrd: libusbmux0
[08:10] <Snookie1> wrd: still getting that error
[08:11] <Snookie1> wrd: i just got "You have 1 broken package on your system!
[08:11] <Snookie1> Use the "Broken" filter to locate it."  Half the time when i swtich into dual screen mode, the screen goes black but I can still see the cursor. Waiting the 30 seconds does nothing. This never occurred in previous versions of ubuntu. Anyone else experiencing this? any ideas?
[08:24] <Sameyeam> will AptonCD contain updates?
[08:24] <qpt`> hey
[08:28] <Ileden> I'm bying a new display adapter, should I generally go for ATI or nVidia, considering Ubuntu support?
[08:28] <rusivi> qpt': Thank you for posting the link about the backdooring.
[08:29] <i8degrees> ...where would I look within the source deb of any given package as to see what compilation flags were used in building said package? example: ~src/mpd:$ ./configure --enable-ffmpeg
[08:29] <Sameyeam> Ileden, I had ATI and it was aweful! I now use Nvidia
[08:29] <Flynsarmy> Ubuntu 10.10, Nvidia proprietry on laptop. Half the time when i swtich into dual screen mode, the screen goes black but I can still see the cursor. Waiting the 30 seconds does nothing. This never occurred in previous versions of ubuntu. Anyone else experiencing this? any ideas?
[08:30] <Sameyeam> Ileden, dual monitor instant setup no fiddleing
[08:30] <Freud> im trying to install ubuntu 10.10 server edition from a usb stick
[08:30] <Freud> but it goes bad when it tries to detect the cdrom drive, which is not present
[08:30] <Ileden> Sameyeam: thanks for sharing the experience. Do you know if this is a general trend for nvidia to work well with linux?
[08:30] <Sameyeam> Flynsarmy, which screen is MAIN?
[08:30] <Freud> it doesn't seem to use the usb stick for the install
[08:30] <Flynsarmy> Sameyeam: he laptop
[08:30] <Freud> it boots from the usb stick though
[08:31] <Flynsarmy> Sameyeam: there's a second bug, even if i select the laptop as main screen, it makes the external main the first time, i cancel then re-set and then my laptop is main
[08:31] <Ileden> Sameyeam: btw which nvidia card is it?
[08:31] <Sameyeam> Flynsarmy, try switching it and check you are using the native resolutions and not forcing a resolution
[08:31] <Flynsarmy> Sameyeam: not forcing resolutions, and it doesn't make a diff if its switched
[08:32] <Sameyeam> Flynsarmy, hmmm always a trouble maker! lol
[08:32] <Flynsarmy> The 2x setting bug has always benen around, but this black screen one is a real doozy - means i need to ctrl+alt+backspace and re-log in, losing all my open apps in the process
[08:32] <Flynsarmy> interestingly enough, the cursor changes to hand when it hovers over something that would be a hand etc. its just everything is black...
[08:33] <Sameyeam> Ileden, hmm don't recall but a cheap one. 2 years old. Newer should be even better!
[08:34] <Sameyeam> Flynsarmy, have you tried uninstall driver and reinstall?
[08:34] <Flynsarmy> Sameyeam: haven't tried that. don't really want to :(
[08:34] <Sameyeam> Flynsarmy, not hard on 10.10
[08:34] <Flynsarmy> Will i need to restart x?
[08:35] <Sameyeam> Flynsarmy, perhaps it's the config file? Make a backup, make a new empty one and restart and it might create a new one
[08:36] <DerSeppel> Hi there! I rebooted a machine yesterday and I suddently cannot login anymore. The ssh session freezes right after successful authentication.
[08:36] <Sameyeam> Flynsarmy, how old is the laptop?
[08:36] <Flynsarmy> Sameyeam: I have noticed that nvidia driver has appeared to...crash? a few times and it defaulted back to whatever the non-proprietry one is
[08:36] <Flynsarmy> 2 years
[08:36] <Ileden> Sameyeam: I'm going for older side myself as well - not for gaming purposes, just my previous one is dying away.
[08:36] <Sameyeam> Ileden, price range?
[08:37] <Sameyeam> Flynsarmy, I would try a simple remove and replace with full reboot inbetween
[08:37] <Ileden> Sameyeam: well, it's employer's money, so... :P but nah, something below 100€ probably.
[08:37] <Sameyeam> Flynsarmy, I had these issues back on 9.04 but not since
[08:37] <Flynsarmy> Sameyeam: where's the config file?
[08:38] <Sameyeam> Ileden, you'll be fine. Some cards have the Nvidia chipset and are much cheaper. That's what I have
[08:38] <i8degrees> Flynsarmy: no clue on how to advise ya as to why Ubuntu's autoconfig stuff is not working, but in my own experience with this stuff, I've always had to depend on custom Xorg.conf files in order to get everything the way I wish, and so with that said: http://pastebin.com/ESh1z4DG
[08:38] <Sameyeam> Flynsarmy, just a second
[08:38] <i8degrees> Flynsarmy: mind you, I'm running on older hardware, but the config, in general, ought to remain the same! (NV44a chipset / Geforce 6200)
[08:40] <ttiicc> how would I create a softlink with a given umask?
[08:40] <mitnick> how can i make this symbol  | on console pls
[08:41] <Flynsarmy> i8degrees: I'm constantly moving the laptop and switching in and out of dual screen mode. Wouldn't having that 'serverlayout' with multiple screens screw that up?
[08:41] <Goddard> where do i change phpmyadmin values in ubuntu?
[08:42] <i8degrees> Flynsarmy: ah, yes, I would think so :] ...you could try removing the ServerLayout config all together, btw
[08:42] <i8degrees> Flynsarmy: also, if you aren't familiar with the usage of the software 'xrandr', I'd strongly suggest becoming intimately familiar with this :]
[08:42] <sacarlson> Goddard: maybe http://localhost/phpmyadmin/
[08:43] <i8degrees> Flynsarmy: ...there are also applets that provide wrappers around xrandr functionality
[08:43] <Flynsarmy> i8degrees: Think I might take Sameyeam's uninstall/reinstall approach :)
[08:43] <i8degrees> Flynsarmy: hehe, worth a shot ;D
[08:43] <mitnick> gusy how can make this symbol pls : |
[08:43] <rs0832> mitnick: don't you have it on your keyboard?
[08:44] <Freud> ok, i guess the 10.10 usb install server edition is borked
[08:44] <mitnick> i dont see
[08:44] <rs0832> mitnick: do you have a standard keyboard?
[08:45] <ttiicc> some one who knows the answer for my question which I made 09:40?
[08:47] <rs0832> mitnick: the hex unicode is 007c and dec is 124 |
[08:49] <koolio> morning
[08:49] <sacarlson> ttiicc: I assume you mean simlink  or ln -s ,  the link has the same mask and privliges as the file it links to
[08:50] <ttiicc> okej, thanks
[08:51] <ttiicc> but Im little worried that my link got 777, does this mean that any user could change the link? I mean they got write access!

[08:55] <cyberlord> hi guys, got a problem
[08:55] <cyberlord> wanna remove a broken package from synaptic package manager but nthing is working
[08:55] <cyberlord> tried sudo apt-get install -f but !
[08:56] <rs0832> cyberlord: sudo apt-get remove <packagename>
[08:57] <i8degrees> cyberlord: or dpkg --force-all remove <package-name>
[08:57] <zenbuntu> sudo apt-get autoremove
[08:57] <i8degrees> cyberlord: as always, though, be careful :]
[08:57] <sacarlson> ttiicc: that got me thinking so I tested it by creating a symlink from my account sacarlson,  I then loged into another account and tried to delete the file even though it is 777  as seen from ls -l,  I can't change it
[08:59] <tripelb> update of 10/04 > cant print. got HP driver, installed, cant print. driver is there on the panel. No reason given. Used to work flawlessly.
[08:59] <sacarlson> ttiicc: but what if I linked the same file when I was loged into that other account?  you should try that to be sure
[08:59] <biassoni> Hi I installed python2.5 on my own to get GmailBackup work. Since a few days it stopped working with the following error:
[09:00] <biassoni> Traceback (most recent call last):
[09:00] <biassoni>   File "gmail-backup-gui.py", line 12, in <module>
[09:00] <biassoni> ImportError: No module named wx
[09:00] <biassoni> may anyone help me?
[09:00] <DerSeppel> I need help from you guys. I updated a ubuntu server yesterday and I can't login anymore. The ssh session is freezing right after successful authentication. The maschine is running fine so far. SFTP/SCP access is working. Any ideas?
[09:00] <ttiicc> sacarlson: I think the permission flags are omitted on symlinks
[09:00] <sacarlson> ttiicc: yes but maybe the owner and group are not
[09:01] <boneshaker> Hi All! Please, may somebody help me with my problem (Xvfb - virtual framebuffer X Server + xvkbd)?
[09:01] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: if sftp access is still working, have you pulled the diagnostic logs out from /var/log in order to peek at possible cause?
[09:02] <DerSeppel> i8degrees: yes. auth.log only shows the successful auth process. no warnings/errors.
[09:04] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: hmm, odd! no other symptoms being reported? let me guess, you can't restart the box? :]
[09:04] <mvandruff> is there a problem with using irc on empathy or something cause i had to go web based to get in
[09:04] <sacarlson> ttiicc: I did the reverse I created a symlink from my other account to my account and only the other account can be allowed to delete or modify that symlink or the superuser sudo
[09:04] <DerSeppel> i8degrees: i could try. WinSCP is able to open a "unix like" shell. This basic shell works so far.
[09:05] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: what version Ubuntu are we dealing with here?
[09:05] <DerSeppel> i8degrees: 10.04.1 LTS - 2.6.32-27-server
[09:05] <mvandruff> is there a program that i can organize my pictures by facial recognition?
[09:06] <sacarlson> ttiicc: last question is now can someone in the group if not the same as the use can they modify or delete the symlink ln -s?
[09:06] <harmony1001> How can I obtain a list of users or computers connected to my ubuntu samba shares?
[09:07] <i8degrees> mvandruff: if you count writing the software with an available library, sure :-] other than that, the only thing I'm aware of is Google Picasa's ability to recognize faces within your photos
[09:08] <blackhole> Hi i just installed ubuntu and wanted to change the display. There is no option in system->preferences-> display ?
[09:08] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: what were the list of software applications that were updated, btw?
[09:08] <blackhole> Any idea how can i change resolution ?
[09:08] <DerSeppel> only the kernel and headers as far as i remember ....
[09:09] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: giving the system a reboot ought to not hurt ... on occasion, I've had updates that have required reboots in order to properly reinit config and all
[09:09] <cuiret120s> tkj
[09:09] <DerSeppel> i8degrees: I'm currently rebooting the machine. I rebooted it yesterday though, right after the update.
[09:10] <blackhole> ??
[09:10] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: oh, well that doesn't sound very promising!
[09:11] <Flynsarmy> I did a sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia-current, reboot, sudo apt-get install nvidia-current, activate, reboot and now it says its activated but for some reason its still not in use. ideas?
[09:11] <DerSeppel> i8degrees: machine is up again, login works right now, but its very unresponsive. Same as yesterday. Worked for a short while the the freeze
[09:11] <rs0832> blackhole:  System> preferences> monitors
[09:11] <blackhole> ahh ok thnx
[09:12] <rs0832> blackhole:  no problem
[09:12] <blackhole> rs0832, it seems to show only 800 x 600
[09:12] <blackhole> rs0832, any idea how can i add higher resolution?
[09:12] <blackhole> rs0832, I have it installed using VM and it couldn't detect monitor. It's a laptop...
[09:13] <rs0832> blackhole:  o.o
[09:13] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: ah, well, now is the time to do as much debugging / diagnostics as possible :]
[09:13] <blackhole> rs0832, do i need to install something specific for it to detect monitor ..
[09:13] <DerSeppel> i8degrees: i guess i'll try to back up the current userdata and then i'll try to revert to the system backup from yesterday morning :/
[09:13] <rs0832> blackhole: maybe a driver
[09:13] <blackhole> rs0832, it's a nvidia quadro graphics card
[09:13] <blackhole> rs0832, so may be linux driver for nvidia quadro?
[09:13] <rs0832> blackhole: you can try
[09:13] <blackhole> rs0832, or may be i can somehow add a higher resolution to this def monitor?
[09:13] <DerSeppel> i8degrees: i've already used all debug possibilities known to me.
[09:13] <teknon> The resolution on my startup splash screen is too low. How do I adjust that?
[09:14] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: knowing the list of apps that were updated would be nice ... I'm curious if ssh or anything relating to was updated? either that bin is fuxxed or perhaps another process is mysteriously murdering due to ?
[09:14] <rs0832> blackhole: arent there any other options?
[09:14] <blackhole> rs0832, nope :(
[09:14] <rs0832> blackhole: try detect monitors
[09:14] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: hard to say, really ... I can't say I have had any problems per se ;/
[09:15] <blackhole> rs0832, doesn't helps
[09:15] <blackhole> rs0832, tried already!
[09:15] <DerSeppel> i8degrees: is there a simple way of optaining a change list from the last apt-get upgrade?
[09:15] <rs0832> blackhole: you are running it on a virtual machine?
[09:15] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: try running a query through Google to see if there is any reports surfacing of your issue?
[09:15] <blackhole> rs0832, yes
[09:15] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: uhmm, let me see...
[09:15] <Flynsarmy> When opening nvidia-settings it says i need to run nvidia-xconfig but that app doesn't exist and its not in apt-cache search either...ideas?
[09:15] <rs0832> blackhole: ah then i think you need to configure it in the virtual machine
[09:15] <blackhole> rs0832, details reg display on VM is video memory 8 MB
[09:15] <blackhole> hmm ok
[09:16] <DerSeppel> i8degrees: already did. only related search results with what seems to be the same issue where mailing lists or forum entries where the issue remained unresolved
[09:17] <georg_> guten morgen
[09:17] <georg_> good morning
[09:18] <georg_> where can i find the supportchanel for ubuntu9.10?
[09:19] <Jordan_U> georg_: This is it.
[09:19] <masai47> I was just upgrading ubuntu from 10.04 to 10.10 when it crashed (power disconected), upon restart it can not load up becasue some components (configuration settings for gnome power manager?) were not installed properly.  Advice?
[09:19] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: /var/log/dpkg.log
[09:20] <Jordan_U> masai47: Booot into recovery mode and run "dpkg --configure -a && apt-get dist-upgrade"
[09:20] <masai47> how do I boot into recover mode
[09:20] <Jordan_U> masai47: Hold shift during boot to get a grub menu, then select the recovery mode option.
[09:21] <georg_> Ah thanks.
[09:22] <mandriva_> Jordan: do you know about Zorin os
[09:22] <benjr> ive got web-brower, irc, and msn open, and my panel applet is shoing im uploading about 80kbs, this doesnt seem right to me, how can i check what specific applicaitons are using the internet?
[09:22] <georg_> the problem ist the kdenlive. That version 0.7.6... ins not found.
[09:22] <DerSeppel> i8degrees: linux-server <IP_ADDRESS>.29, linux-image-server <IP_ADDRESS>.29, linux-headers-2.6.32-27 2.6.32-27.49 and linux-headers-2.6.32-27-server 2.6.32-27.49
[09:22] <georg_> i have the update from ppa:
[09:22] <georg_> sempervideo told me...
[09:23] <georg_> it do not read flv files
[09:23] <georg_> what can I do?
[09:23] <mandriva_> can anyone tell me how download Zorin OS. I can't open  	http://www.zorin-os.webs.com
[09:24] <masai47> Jordan_U:  Thanks, I just clicked the option to repair broken packages, I think it is going to take a very long time as it had download some 1300+ packages and was only part way through installing them
[09:24] <rs0832> mandrivia_: open it through a proxy like hidemyass.com
[09:24] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: ah :] typical.... well, that's easy enough, anyhow! if you have console access to the system, anyhow :-)
[09:25] <rs0832> georg_: did you install flashplayer?
[09:25] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: you could try selecting the recovery option on the kernel that you were last on and see how the system runs afterwards
[09:26] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: ...if it patches things up, just remove the latest kernel installs and it'll autoconfig grub back to the older one (picks the newest kernel available and throws it on top)
[09:26] <biassoni> hi guys I need to configure python in order to add a path to the sys module, may anyone help?
[09:27] <DerSeppel> i8degrees: yes ... thats what i was thinking about right know. I'll call the datacenter and let them reboot the machine into recovery to get a working shell
[09:28] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: *nods* ought to be smooth sailing from there :-)
[09:29] <zamba> i want to reach a computer in a network behind a router.. i have access to the router, so i basically just have to do some ssh forwarding.. how do i do that?
[09:29] <DerSeppel> i8degrees: thanks you dude.
[09:30] <noonian> zamba you need to log into your router config page, it is usually at <IP_ADDRESS> on a browser
[09:30] <i8degrees> DerSeppel: wish ya best of luck!!
[09:30] <noonian> zamba, then go to port forwarding and forward to the computer you want, port 22 is the default port for ssh
[09:31] <zamba> noonian: oh, nevermind.. it's not a router.. it's just a regular computer inside the network
[09:31] <zamba> noonian: so i need to do ssh forwarding
[09:32] <noonian> if you are on the network you should just be able to ssh to the other computer then
[09:32] <zamba> no
[09:32] <zamba> i have access to a computer that's in the network
[09:32] <zamba> i'm on the outside
[09:32] <zamba> so i need to ssh through this computer to reach any of the other from the outside
[09:33] <noonian> ok
[09:33] <noonian> so just ssh to that computer, then ssh to one of the other ones on the network
[09:34] <noonian> you will still need the local network ip of the other computer
[09:34] <zamba> noonian: i need to access the web port
[09:34] <zamba> noonian: and i need to do this from my web browser
[09:34] <zamba> noonian: i KNOW i need ssh forwarding, so can you stop fighting the question? :)
[09:35] <noonian> zamba, im not trying to fight with you hehe. so you want port 80 on the one you have access to to be port 22 on the other one on the network?
[09:37] <ServerTechLaptop> How do i upgrade ubuntu server 10.04 to ubuntu server 10.10?
[09:37] <i_is_broke> ServerTechLaptop, check in your repos and make sure that the box is moved from lts to normal release

[09:39] <i_is_broke> ServerTechLaptop, then locate your repos and in there at the bottom it says only check for lts. you need to move it to normal release.
[09:40] <i_is_broke> ServerTechLaptop, or open synaptics and change repo there as well.

[09:43] <XVampireX> almost no matter in what video output
[09:43] <tomdv_> anyone running UEC over here?
[09:43] <ttiicc> okej? do I need to make a link from the default rc folder?

[09:46] <XVampireX> I installed it, for now it's ok...
[09:46] <AdvoWork> is there a way to test how much bandwidth would be used on a rsync?
[09:47] <jerk> can anyone please tell me how to get dual audio output [both headphone and speakers] in Ubuntu 10.04?
[09:47] <mandriva_> do you have any idea to download zorin os
[09:48] <noonian> jerk, I think if you click on the sound icon and go to sound preferences you can switch it to analog output, then go into alsamixer and make sure the volume is up for headphones and speakers
[09:49] <nirazio> where does ubuntu store its library files?i want to add my own library to use in c compiling, but don't really know where ubuntu stores it.
[09:49] <jerk> noonian: how can I get in alsamixer?
[09:50] <nirazio> where does ubuntu store its library files?i want to add my own library to use in c compiling, but don't really know where ubuntu stores it.
[09:50] <noonian> jerk, open a terminal and type alsamixer
[09:52] <i8degrees> nirazio: /usr/lib & /usr/include
[09:53] <Flynsarmy> Anyone able to help? I deactivated/purged nvidia-common, rebooted, reinstalled, activated, rebooted, /usr/lib/nvidia-common/bin/nvidia-xconfig, reboot and now it won't go past the ubunut logo with 5 red dots. Anyone able ot help?
[09:53] <ZyreX> Hello
[09:54] <ZyreX> Can someone help me with a problem, please?
[09:55] <jerk> okay....alsamixer says my headphone isn't being detected
[09:57] <sacarlson> Flynsarmy: I guess you can try live cd boot and delete or rename the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf  and try boot again
[09:58] <koshari> can you still boot with nosplash option in 10.04?

[09:59] <nirazio> How to block icmp responses??
[09:59] <nirazio> How to block icmp responses??
[09:59] <twitch> iptables ?
[10:00] <rs0832> hidnshadows : i think there is a package in the repos for that
[10:00] <Jordan_U> hidnshadows: Yes, through the terminal you can use "shread" and I'd bet there is also a GUI tool.
[10:00] <hidnshadows> rs0832 any idea on what keywords I should try?
[10:00] <rs0832> hidnshadows : 'wipe'
[10:00] <Jordan_U> hidnshadows: s/shread/shred/
[10:01] <twitch> !iptables | nirazio
[10:01] <jerk> so, can anyone plz tell why my headphone isn't being detected by alsamixer?
[10:01] <ZyreX> Did someone manage to update to 10.10 from Update manager? I'm asking because i have ubuntu 10.4 , but it doesnt show me the latest dist..
[10:02] <twitch> jerk: is it usb?
[10:02] <rs0832> ZyreX : i have
[10:02] <jerk> twitch: no
[10:02] <noonian> jerk, you might have to hit f5 to see everything in alsamixer
[10:02] <nettezzaumana> hi there .. would any insane ubuntist show me output from: dpkg -S `which lshw`
[10:02] <nettezzaumana> thanks
[10:02] <ZyreX>  rs0832: can you guide me a little. i tried to swith from one server to another, , then to main server, but still, it doesnt show any dist update there?
[10:03] <nirazio> twitch: Yes using iptables
[10:03] <nettezzaumana> ^^ check please if -S $file shows which package owns a $file
[10:03] <rs0832> ZyreX : why dont you just use the cli?
[10:04] <rs0832> ZyreX : sudo apt-get install update-manager-core | sudo do-release-upgrade -d
[10:04] <sacarlson> nettezzaumana: I see lshw: /usr/bin/lshw
[10:04] <ZyreX> thanks, i will try
[10:04] <jerk> noonian: okay, did f5 too... not helping :(
[10:04] <rs0832> ZyreX: no problem
[10:04] <gsouque> i have an issue with freenx in the client side (no machine client) some buttons of applications disappear
[10:05] <nettezzaumana> sacarlson: thanks .. no problem, but i asked which package deploys that file and it could be achieved by: dpkg -S /usr/bin/lshw
[10:05] <nettezzaumana> i hope
[10:05] <nettezzaumana> IIRC
[10:05] <SergeyIT>  ZyreX, menu System - Administration - Software sources; page Updates - Release Upgrade - Normal releases
[10:05] <Okitain> Is there any way to stop the dpkg process?
[10:06] <ZyreX> yes, sergey , its on normal releases..
[10:06] <noonian> jerk, no idea why they arent showing up :(
[10:06] <Okitain> My problem: the update manager locked up when it was installing something, so I killed it off.
[10:07] <AdvoWork> im doing: rsync -azxhvr --progress --bwlimit=100 --rsh='ssh' <IP_ADDRESS>:/mnt/Data/FILES/WORK/WORK /mnt/Data/FILES/FILES/WORK/WORK  but its putting all the contents from the source WORK but making a new folder in the destination, called WORK.  so now im getting WORK/WORK/WORK rather than just WORK/WORK  any ideas please? I thought leaving off the / from the desintation folder shouldave fixed it..
[10:07] <Okitain> Now, the dpkg is in the list of processes, uninterruptible, and forbidding anything from locking the install process.
[10:07] <jerk> noonian: technically speaking, there's "headphones" written right next to the "Master" but I can't control the volume
[10:07] <SergeyIT> ZyreX? then in Update Manager must be the control - "Upgrade" (
[10:07] <nettezzaumana> well, would anyone show me that bloody output from `dpkg -S /usr/bin/lshw` ??
[10:08] <Flynsarmy> Anyone here using nvidia-propreitry drivers on 10.10 that hasn't manually modified their xorg.conf? Can you pastebin and send my way please. woudl really help
[10:08] <ZyreX> SergeyIT, i know, but it doesnt anything about the dist. I used that when i updated to 10.04, but now when im trying to update to 10.10, it just doesnt show anything
[10:09] <noonian> jerk, using the arrow keys you cant?
[10:10] <sacarlson> nettezzaumana: I just typed it as you sent it dpkg -S /usr/bin/lshw  and that's what I got from my term but with just lshw I get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/543985/
[10:10] <ZyreX> anyway , SergeyIT, im using that command that rs0832 told me..so , thanks anyway
[10:10] <nuttso> hey there. Got a question. I use backtrack 4 r2 and tried to update the ati drivers. They didn't seem to work propably so i deletet them. But now my screensaver configuration in kde3 show me the error: libGL.so.1 cannot open shared files. I think it was overwriten. how can i get the old one back?
[10:10] <popey> nuttso: we don't support backtrack in here, you probably want #backtrack-linux
[10:10] <nettezzaumana> sacarlson: no .. uff
[10:11] <nettezzaumana> sacarlson: i didn't .. please retype with full path
[10:11] <SergeyIT> ZyreX? it's a bug, may be. I use the LTS versions only
[10:11] <nettezzaumana> sacarlson: thanks btw
[10:11] <bullgard>  [Lucid] I sent my Thinkpad T42 to hibernate. When I woke it up '~$ route' was empty and I had to run '~$ sudo dhclient eth0' in order to get ADSL Internet access. Why does this computer not establish automatically Internet access as it did in the past?
[10:11] <nuttso> thcx popey
[10:11] <nettezzaumana> sacarlson: if your paste is accurate you typed `dpkg -S lshw`
[10:12] <nettezzaumana> which is not what i want cuz i need `dpkg -S /usr/bin/lshw`
[10:12] <nettezzaumana> i only need to know which package deploys that file
[10:12]  * korben greets all
[10:12] <Flynsarmy> Anyone here on nvidia-proprietry on 10.10 and haven't manually modified their xorg.conf?
[10:13] <nettezzaumana> why is this channel (except of sacarlson) so not helpful
[10:13] <sacarlson> nettezzaumana: as stated that's what I got but if you don't beleave me see for yourself http://paste.ubuntu.com/543987/
[10:13] <rigved> !find lshw | nettezzaumana
[10:14] <nettezzaumana> sacarlson: ok, sorry and thanks ... i don't have|using ubuntu or even deb systems ... i have some inane script which fails on our RHELs due to the missing lshw binary|script|whatever
[10:15] <nettezzaumana> sacarlson: have a nice day and regards
[10:16] <nettezzaumana> sacarlson: ps. you showeed me correctly even in first output but it's in format which i didn't parsed at first look
[10:17] <sacarlson> nettezzaumana: if you wanted details on that you might find it here http://ezix.org/project/wiki/HardwareLiSter
[10:18] <Emanon-iPhone> Hola all is it possible to do full disk encryption with netbook version or should I just install netbook ui over an alternate install?
[10:18] <nettezzaumana> sacarlson: thanks again and no problem .. i just downloaded it manually and now hacking out
[10:18] <acicula> FDE needs alternate
[10:20] <taran> does anyone know how to update from behind a firewall?
[10:20] <acicula> netbook does support encrypted user directories, so depending on your security requirements that may also be an option.
[10:20] <taran> !update
[10:20] <taran> !update
[10:20] <Emanon-iPhone> Was hoping for full disk
[10:21] <acicula> Emanon-iPhone: its possible, but requires a bit more work, and more often then not more trouble then its worth.
[10:22] <Flynsarmy> Anyone here on nvidia-proprietry on 10.10 and haven't manually modified their xorg.conf?
[10:22] <acicula> taran: there is no obvious relation between the two, can you explain the problem you are experiencing
[10:22] <Autonomiser> !
[10:23] <Autonomiser> ITM!
[10:23] <Emanon-iPhone> K tha ms acicula
[10:23] <Emanon-iPhone> Grr thanks hate iPhone sometimes
[10:23] <taran> acicula: shall i post the screenshot?
[10:24] <acicula> taran: anything that explains your problem would be usefull
[10:24] <acicula> err describes
[10:26] <sacarlson> taran: as long as port 80 (same as your browser)  works then you should be able to update with synaptic or apt-get
[10:26] <jerk> noonian: sorry for the late reply..... yeah I can't control the headphone vol in alsamixer using arrow keys
[10:26] <taran> acicula: I got this message "Requires installation of untrusted packages  The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources."
[10:27] <tokyomission> Umm... I am in the middle of a distro upgrade to 10.10
[10:27] <tokyomission> and it just stoppped
[10:27] <tokyomission> at "removing all DKMS Modules"
[10:27] <tokyomission> Is there a way to restart the proccess?
[10:28] <acicula> taran: thats not a firewall issue, that either means you need to try another mirror and or run check for updates again, or that you added a repository without adding the signing key for that repository
[10:28] <twitch> tokyomission: apt-get install -f
[10:28] <CERNUNN0S> @AdvoWork you could use "trickle -d 80", that would limit the connection to 80Kb/s
[10:28] <nicofs> i just installed ubuntu-netbook and i want to change to normal ubuntu. how do i install ubuntu and get rid of u-netbook afterwards without a new install? i installed ubuntu-desktop via synaptic so far...
[10:28] <sacarlson> taran: sounds like maybe a keyring problem  something like this http://fplanque.com/dev/linux/debian-apt-get-missing-keys
[10:29] <acicula> nicofs: think there is only a few packages specific to the netbook version, youd have to compare the two profiles against each other to find out which ones
[10:29] <tokyomission> twitch: says it is locked
[10:29] <nicofs> acicula: how/where could i compare them?
[10:29] <twitch> tokyomission: means you are running apt already or update manager or symn
[10:29] <taran> sacarlson: I will check up n report
[10:30] <twitch> synap*
[10:30] <acicula> nicofs: not a clue
[10:30] <tokyomission> I am running the distro upgrade currently
[10:30] <tokyomission> but it just stoped
[10:30] <tokyomission> at around 50%
[10:31] <nicofs> acicula: coul it be somewhere in the session settings?
[10:31] <tokyomission> and isn't letting me do anything
[10:31] <twitch> did you lcose all the windows?
[10:31] <twitch> close
[10:31] <tokyomission> all bu xchat
[10:31] <tokyomission> and I can
[10:31] <sacarlson> taran: also take a look at this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1600704
[10:31] <tokyomission> 't close the "Distribution Upgrade" window
[10:31] <TeslaTony> nicofs, ubuntu-desktop is the package you want. If you have a terminal handy, type in "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[10:32] <tokyomission> the close is disabled
[10:32] <nicofs> TeslaTony: that's what i did so far... but how do i rid myself of ubuntu-netbook afterwards?
[10:32] <Deiu> Hello!
[10:32] <twitch> tokyomission: the update hasn't finbshed if it errored .. so if you know how to use ps aux .. kill all processes attached to apt .. or just reboot then try apt-get install -f
[10:32] <tokyomission> I can do ctrl-c but it says"This will abort the operation and may leave the system in a broken state."
[10:32] <Deiu> Does anyone know if you can force install of packages in specific dirs?
[10:33] <TeslaTony> nicofs, That's a tad trickier. You can take a look at the dependencies of the ubuntu-netbook package, and uninstall the ones you don't want, but it isn't very clean
[10:33] <bl4de> hi, guys
[10:33] <sacarlson> Deiu: never heard of that but you can search a file to find what package it comes from,  if you want to scan each in the dir I guess it could be done
[10:34] <nicofs> TeslaTony: that's not the problem... i fear that after rebooting i will still get into the netbook-look...
[10:34] <cvetan5> hey guys
[10:34] <Flynsarmy> Anyone here on nvidia-proprietry on 10.10 and haven't manually modified their xorg.conf?
[10:34] <cvetan5> how can I adjust the microphone input volume with C++ ?
[10:34] <twitch> tokyomission: it's already going to be a broken state if the packages you are trying to install have failed half way through
[10:34] <guest1> please help me.......
[10:35] <TeslaTony> nicofs, Then at the login screen, there's the "session type" option, and just choose Ubuntu, or Ubuntu Desktop
[10:35] <ttiicc> I have a script /etc/init.d/jboss and would like to get it executed with boot and stopped with shutdown. What should I do?
[10:35] <acicula> nicofs: you wont, as you can select what flavour you want at the login screen
[10:35] <sacarlson> cvetan5: might look at the source code in the alsa libs
[10:35] <acicula> nicofs: its at the bottom
[10:35] <twitch> .away tv
[10:35] <guest1> my documents, places, music , video folder not opening   help
[10:36] <acicula> !init
[10:36] <cvetan5> sacarlson, I've looked at the ALSA docs, there is this simple mixer but no examples :S
[10:37] <burg> hello. is there any problem with flash player on ubuntu 10.10 64bit? because very often flash player just crashes in my browser
[10:37] <sacarlson> cvetan5: well there are gui's that have volume control they must have the source code for those someplace
[10:37] <boneshaker> why sending keysequence via xvkbd kills Xvfb server?
[10:37] <boneshaker> other servers (not Xvfb) works fine
[10:37] <guest1> my documents, places, music , video folder not opening   help me
[10:37] <cvetan5> sacarlson, nice hint ;) thnx
[10:38] <sacarlson> cvetan5: maybe look at the source of aumix
[10:44] <bullgard>  [Lucid] I sent my Thinkpad T42 to hibernate. When I woke it up '~$ route' was empty and I had to run '~$ sudo dhclient eth0' in order to get ADSL Internet access. Why does this computer not establish automatically Internet access as it did in the past?
[10:44] <nicofs> how can i start the "Login Screen Settings" via console?
[10:45] <i8degrees> nicofs: if it is a X application, you cannot
[10:46] <i8degrees> nicofs: normally, anyhow :] going about it through a framebuffer is not for the faint of heart
[10:46] <nicofs> i8degrees: to change anything, i need to click the "unlock" button. but if i do nothing happens. so i wanted to start via console with "sudo"
[10:47] <nicofs> i8degrees: i am talking about System > Administration > Login Screen
[10:49] <i8degrees> nicofs: ah, gdm :]
[10:50] <i8degrees> nicofs: at the console, type 'sudo service gdm restart' (w/o quotes)
[10:50] <SergeyIT> nicofs, gksu gdmsetup
[10:50] <stiang> why does init respawn mysql whenever I kill it? where is this behavior configured?
[10:50] <Flynsarmy> Anyone here on nvidia-proprietry on 10.10 and haven't manually modified their xorg.conf?
[10:51] <twitch> yeah
[10:51] <i8degrees> Flynsarmy: :-)
[10:51] <Flynsarmy> twitch: can you pastebin it for me? i'm having all kinds of issues eventually resulting in my conf file disappearing :(
[10:51] <SergeyIT> nicofs, it does not work (
[10:51] <Flynsarmy> *head explodes*
[10:52] <twitch> have you uninstalled ubuntu repo's of nvidia?
[10:52] <AdvoWork> im trying to install 10.10 on a brand new laptop. Downloaded it, burnt it to dvd, and ive put it in the laptop, changed boot device priority but it just won't boot, any suggestions please?
[10:52]  * i8degrees almost wonders why he is still using Ubuntu; my install is so customized that it bares little resemblance
[10:53] <Flynsarmy> twitch: i uninstalled nvidia-common, rebooted, reinstalled/activate, rebooted, ran /usr/lib/nvidia-common/bin/nvidia-xconfig, rebooted, ubuntu failed ot pass ubuntu logo, deleted conf file and now i'm back to default nvidia drivers instead of proprietry
[10:53] <ectospasm> AdvoWork: do any other bootable CDs/DVDs boot OK in that drive?
[10:53] <Flynsarmy> twitch: so now i'm looking for the xorg.conf that you get when you first install nvidia proprietry - i'll copy it in there and hopefully it'll work
[10:53] <nicofs> Can i change the session settings somewhere vie console/editor?
[10:53] <nicofs> *via
[10:54] <AdvoWork> ectospasm, just going to try that now, i may just install an old version and upgrade, same thing right?
[10:54] <ectospasm> AdvoWork: in theory, yes that's the same
[10:54] <ectospasm> AdvoWork: ymmv, and all that
[10:54] <AdvoWork> ectospasm, hmm, 9.10 boots
[10:55] <AdvoWork> ill install that, then is it best to just do an upgrade from the update manager or?
[10:55] <ectospasm> AdvoWork: may want to try 10.04, since upgrading may not work as planned
[10:55] <bullgard> nicofs: see http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/en/man8/gdm.8.html for a partial answer to your question. But you will need diligence.
[10:55] <i8degrees> nicofs: now that's my sort of q&a :-) look within /etc/X11 & /etc/gdm
[10:55] <AdvoWork> ectospasm, how come?
[10:56] <nicofs> i8degrees: basically i want to enable auto-login and remove some sessions from the dropdown menu...
[10:56] <ectospasm> AdvoWork: too big of a version jump, IMO.  It may work, I just don't like to skip releases.
[10:57] <taran> How to work over this "PG error: http://deb.opera.com stable Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY F9A2F76A9D1A0061Failed to fetch http://deb.opera.com/opera/dists/stable/non-free/source/Sources.gz  404  Not Found Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead."
[10:57] <AdvoWork> ectospasm, dunno how ill do it, any reason it didnt work downloading and burning to dvd(10.10 i mean)
[10:58] <ectospasm> AdvoWork: did you check the md5/sha1 sum of the DVD ISO?
[10:58] <i8degrees> nicofs: the man page bullgard linked you to is your best bet for those two specifics
[10:58] <RoboIRC> hey whats meego??
[10:58] <AdvoWork> ectospasm, yeah but the ubuntu site doesnt mention burning to dvd, only cd, so could that be the prob?
[10:59] <i8degrees> nicofs: the sessions are found within /usr/share/xsessions
[10:59] <ectospasm> AdvoWork: is there a separate DVD ISO?  If not, it probably doesn't work because you've used a DVD
[10:59] <i8degrees> nicofs: but regardless, you most definitely should refer to above stated man page for gdm :-)
[11:00] <nicofs> i8degrees: i'll look into that as soon as i'm done with removing al the unnessesary packets that came with ubuntu...
[11:01] <dagon666>  is there a download tool (like wget) capable to process Javascript code ?
[11:01] <AdvoWork> ectospasm, am i able to install 10.10 from the 9.10 live cd?
[11:01] <C00re> curl perhaps
[11:02] <i8degrees> nicofs: *nods* hehe, I feel ya
[11:02] <ectospasm> AdvoWork: I really can't say, as I've never tried
[11:02] <C00re> curl can handle cookies atleast :P
[11:02] <scarra3> I still can't get ubuntu to work with my touchpad
[11:02] <sacarlson> dagon666: like firefox?
[11:02] <nicofs> i8degrees: fyi... running experimental kernel on arm-based system...
[11:02] <ectospasm> I went from 9.10->10.04->10.10, and had to install 10.10 from scratch because I hosed my LVM.
[11:02] <AdvoWork> ectospasm, actually, found http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/10.10/release/ubuntu-10.10-dvd-i386.iso
[11:02] <scarra3> My touchpad is an Alps Touchpad on my Sony Vaio
[11:02] <ectospasm> AdvoWork: use that to burn then
[11:02] <i8degrees> nicofs: hehe -- wish I had an ARM chip to play with :]
[11:03] <dagon666> sacarlson: thanks for the advice.... moron
[11:03] <nicofs> i8degrees: mine came 280€ including an integrated 3g modem... can't complain there...
[11:03] <sacarlson> dagon666: I use firefox with firewatir
[11:03] <alabackern> hmm
[11:03] <sacarlson> dagon666: you didn't relize the power of firefox
[11:04] <sacarlson> dagon666: it uses ruby as it's interface
[11:04] <dagon666> sacarlson: I wrote "like wget"
[11:04] <scarra3> Any ideas
[11:05] <rigved> i8degrees: if you have a smart phone that you didn't use, then you could have an ARM chip to play with!
[11:05] <bullgard> 'man apt': "This manpage isn't even started." Where is desciption of apt to be found?
[11:05] <bullgard> s/desciption/description/
[11:05] <wrd> bullgard: what kind of manual are you looking for?
[11:05] <scarra3> My touchpad is an Alps Touchpad on my Sony Vaio
[11:06] <bullgard> wrd: An informative one. An introduction from the user's point of view.
[11:06] <i8degrees> rigved: ah, very true :] certainly have more than one of those laying around ... perhaps once a few other hacking projects get finished -_-
[11:06] <wrd> bullgard: /usr/share/doc/apt-doc/guide.html (in package apt-doc)
[11:06] <sacarlson> dagon666: yes but you also stated "process Javascript code" if you just want the text then you can use wget
[11:07] <wrd> bullgard: most debian documentation is packaged and readable with a browser
[11:07] <scarra3> Is there any way I can get he touchpad to work
[11:12] <scarra3> my laptop is a sony vaio vpcee32fx and my touchpad is a sony vaio but for some reason my touchpad does not work at all and I don't know why
[11:12] <sarvodaya> i'm having trouble getting a server set up with wordpress
[11:13] <bullgard> wrd: I installed the DEB program package »apt-doc« and can now read and study the »APT User's Guide«. --  Thank you very much for your help. --  But I have a supplementary question: Why have DEbian people not taken an excerpt of this document and put it in 'man apt'?
[11:14] <bullgard> (I first start looking for documentation in the manpages.)
[11:15] <jayden> hey when i set a program to run on startup, where is the setting written to? I ask because I need to know the command of a startup item I had on my old computer and all I have are the backup files :P

[11:16] <error_203> my system login  password box is missing.how to resolve this
[11:17] <error_203> i   locked my screen when i want to unlock it the password box is missing
[11:19] <jayden> thank you so much jrib, exactly what I wanted! <333
[11:19] <error_203> no soln guys?
[11:21] <bullgard> error_203: May be this helps: sudo stop gdm, sudo start gdm, sudo restart gdm.
[11:21] <error_203> bullgyard: i tried but not works
[11:21] <error_203> bullguard: i tried in the screen mode using alt+ctrl+f1

[11:23] <Sandking> hey
[11:23] <Redcoil> Hi
[11:24] <Sandking> how can i change default media player that under volume indicator it would show up instead of rhythmbox?
[11:24] <jayden> load a media player other than rhythmbox, if rhythmbox is still showing after you closed it, run rhythmbox and hit ctrl+q, sandking
[11:24] <Redcoil> How can I apply a patch? Terminal says 'patch' is an unknown command
[11:25] <jrib> Redcoil: patch is in the patch package.  Why do you want to apply a patch?
[11:25] <Sandking> jayden: oh, so the indicator just shows which player is active? i thought i need to change somewhere
[11:25] <Redcoil> jrib: Ubuntu has got a bug with my iMac's fans, they go full power all the time
[11:26] <jayden> I think its up to the player to support the feature, though I'm not 100% sure Sandking, check if your player has any plugins avaliable or ask on their forums
[11:26] <jrib> Redcoil: you understand you probably have to apply the patch to some source code and rebuild a package right?
[11:26] <Redcoil> jrir Oh dear.
[11:27] <Redcoil> hm.
[11:28] <Redcoil> jrib I've also a script which I must run as 'sudo', back in OS X I'd do that by simple entering its name but that doesn't work here, how can I run the script sudo from the terminal?
[11:29] <jrib> Redcoil: sudo « how you would normally run the script here ».  You have to be more specific if that doesn't work
[11:29] <Redcoil> jrib How can I run a script from the terminal?
[11:30] <Redcoil> ugh
[11:30] <jrib> Redcoil: make sure it's executable and type its path
[11:30] <Redcoil> Drag and drop works, nevermind
[11:30] <Redcoil> I cd'd to the directory before and then tried to run it :s
[11:30] <jrib> Redcoil: that works too.  Use ./NAME_OF_SCRIPT since . isn't in your PATH
[11:31] <Syria> join #ubuntu
[11:32] <Syria> :S
[11:32] <Redcoil> meh.
[11:34] <Redcoil> jrib Also, to rephrase that before, applying a patch is lots of hassle?
