[12:50] <songer> Beyecixramd, iy says Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig
[12:50] <joenel> hello
[12:50] <Beyecixramd> songer: do this
[12:50] <Beyecixramd> sudo nvidia-xconfig --reconfigure
[12:51] <Sary> Beyecixramd:  is doing a great job helping others ;)
[12:51] <s3r3n1t7_> I'm attempting to use ufw in combination with virtualbox, using a bridged network adapter. Before I enabled ufw, i could access the bridged machines, however after enabling it, the machines are inaccessible. How (and/or where) can I add a rule to allow the VM's to be acessible as per UFW rules?
[12:51] <Sary> Beyecixramd: just want to thank you one more time ;)
[12:51] <joenel> maybe use sudo?
[12:51] <Beyecixramd> Sary: yeah, in my free time i like to help people having issues in Ubuntu, and making it better for everyone :)
[12:51] <joenel> try 'sudo su'
[12:51] <Beyecixramd> Sary: oh no need to thank me :P
[12:51] <DoctorPepper> hi guys !!!
[12:52] <Pici> joenel: 'sudo su' is redundant.  Use sudo -i
[12:52] <Sary> Beyecixramd: Thats Whats up ;)
[12:52] <owd95> i have 4gb of ram and when i have use my computer in 20min ubuntu use 1.2gb of ram... is that normal?
[12:52] <songer> Beyecixramd, it says Invalid commandline
[12:52] <joenel> for what the -i parameters?
[12:52] <Beyecixramd> songer: okay, let me check
[12:52] <sipior> owd95: depending on what you're doing, yes, it is.
[12:53] <Sary> Beyecixramd:  We must Thank Increment persons like yourself ;)
[12:53] <Beyecixramd> Sary: :P
[12:53] <owd95> sipior: i use google-chrome, spotify, x-chat and pidgin.
[12:53] <songer> Beyecixramd,  its says: Invalid commandline, please run `nvidia-xconfig --help` for usage information
[12:53] <Beyecixramd> songer: run "sudo nvidia-xconfig"
[12:53] <MasterOfDisaster> owd95: run free -m and check the "-/+ buffers/cache:" line
[12:53] <s3r3n1t7_> owd95, it's not likely you are actually using that much ram. A lot is cached so the next time a program would be started it's a lot quicker. Compare the first time you use firefox with the next start of firefox for example.
[12:54] <Vi0L0> hi, which xserver version will 10.10 use? :)

[12:55] <abhijit> which is that channel where ubuntu bot sits and notify of unanwered question?
[12:55] <Beyecixramd> abhijit: i think such a channel doesn't exist
[12:55] <Sary> Beyecixramd:  i hope i can be an Advanced user soon .. just to give you a hand ;)
[12:55] <owd95> MasterOfDisasters3r3n1t7_: it's output this "-/+ buffers/cache:       1231       2727"
[12:56] <karlo> I found gedit's plugin directory, but I have not permission to put plugin in that directory, any suggestion ?ž
[12:56] <abhijit> Beyecixramd, it exists. I forgot its name
[12:56] <Vi0L0> @ www i can see that 10.10 is now using xserver 1.8, but maybe there are chances for xserver 1.9? :)
[12:56] <Beyecixramd> Sary: i've been using Linux for a year, more or less. I started sitting in help channel helping others in 3 moths. It doesn't take that much :P
[12:56] <Beyecixramd> karlo: you have to copy files as root
[12:56] <Pici> Vi0L0: Best to ask in #ubuntu+1 or #ubuntu-x if no one can help there.
[12:56] <Sary> Sary: Hello Ubuntu , Welcome aboard All newcomers ;)
[12:57] <Beyecixramd> karlo: sudo cp /path/to/plugin /path/to/gedit/plugins/directory

[12:57] <mintux> how to mount ntfs partition for all user . i could not do it with fstab . it returned error
[12:57] <abhijit> Pici, yes that is what I was asking from beginning
[12:57] <mintux> and why it requer passwor d?\
[12:57] <Beyecixramd> mintux: sudo mount /path/to/device /where/you/want/to/mount/it
[12:58] <Beyecixramd> mintux: because you're trying to run a command as root (Administrator, in Windows) that would stop you if the computer is not yours
[12:58] <mintux> Beyecixramd: so another user can not mount because they need root password
[12:58] <owd95> MasterOfDisaster: it's output this -/+ buffers/cache:       1231       2727
[12:58] <Beyecixramd> mintux: then search "mount for all users ubuntu" on Google or whatever
[12:58] <mengu> thanks MasterOfDisaster.

[12:59] <SwedeMike> !grub2 | tofufish_
[13:00] <Sary> Beyecixramd: Yep , thanks to you
[13:00] <Beyecixramd> DoctorPepper: then it's likely anyone can help you out. Try another channel, the Ubuntu forums, etc :P
[13:00] <joenel> i mean a gui boot selection
[13:00] <Beyecixramd> Sary: try !command | desireduser the next time :P
[13:00] <Kwpolska> is there any possibility to automatise some key press 90 times?
[13:00] <tofufish_> SwedeMike: I just installed ubuntu (dual boot with win7) (ubuntu 10.04) are you saying its using Grub2, not grub?
[13:01] <Sary> Beyecixramd: alright
[13:01] <Kwpolska> 9.10 and onwards are using grub2
[13:01] <erUSUL> Kwpolska: what are you trying to do ?
[13:01] <tofufish_> SwedeMike: Sorry, im an idiot. Just read it properly.
[13:01] <SwedeMike> tofufish_: yes, that's basically what "GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10" would indicate, yes.
[13:01] <s3r3n1t7_> owd95, it's not likely you are actually using that much ram. A lot is cached so the next time a program would be started it's a lot quicker. Compare the first time you use firefox with the next start of firefox for example.
[13:01] <s3r3n1t7_> ignore that ..
[13:01] <aramroth> i take it nobody experienced such wifi problems and nobody has any idea what to do?
[13:01] <Kwpolska> erUSUL: I want to make a script, something automatically imitate pressing keys left, r, -, 1, enter 90 times.
[13:01] <aramroth> well, google doesn't know anything either...
[13:02] <Oer> aramroth, there is a excellent guide > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide
[13:02] <erUSUL> Kwpolska: dunno sorry
[13:02] <abhijit> aramroth, I dont know the solution but have you talked to your isp?
[13:02] <Sary> aramroth: i din't had such an experience
[13:02] <aramroth> it's an ubuntu issue

[13:03] <Kwpolska> aramroth: wut wifi problems?
[13:03] <Sary> !wifi

[13:13] <abhijain> help please for pdf edit
[13:13] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: what does that command do?
[13:13] <Lalon> Beyecixramd:  set up proxy :D
[13:13] <Beyecixramd> !help | abhijain
[13:13] <Misterio> !xchat | Lalon
[13:13] <dury> how do I remove the nonflashplugin that ubuntu has and install the adobe one
[13:13] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: well, you can set up a proxy in XChat
[13:13] <Misterio> brr, Lalon: you can use xchat, it's like mirc, but dunno that /firewall
[13:13] <Beyecixramd> dury: don't remove it. Just install the Adobe one
[13:13] <Lalon> ohhh :(
[13:14] <Beyecixramd> dury: search "adobe linux download flash"
[13:14] <Lalon> so i cant use proxy if i use linux?
[13:14] <Lalon> i mean in irc clients
[13:14] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: i told you, you can use proxies in XChat
[13:14] <dury> how do I know which one is installed?
[13:14] <Misterio> Lalon: You can use proxy with them
[13:14] <Atsy> howdy
[13:14] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: even using nm-applet, you can set up a firewall system-wide
[13:14] <abhijain> Beyecixramd: any idea about pdf edit on ubuntu
[13:14] <rafaek> !nas
[13:14] <Misterio> Lalon: Most of them can be configurated to use it
[13:15] <Lalon> Beyecixramd:  wow ! with the same command that i used for mirc?
[13:15] <Lalon> well im using kvirc but cant use proxy easily what i did in mirc
[13:15] <sectroyer> Hi. How can I turn of X server temporarly in ubuntu 10.4 ?
	Sorry, I don't know anything about nas
[13:15] <Beyecixramd> abhijain: you have two tools i recommend, the first is the OpenOffice suite. Writer and Draw can import PDF files. The other one is called Xournal, you can make annotations and etc...
[13:15] <Lalon> i just this command for mirc ./firewall on ip:port
[13:15] <rafaek> heheh the bot dont know anything about nas
[13:15] <Sary> tara: then you can find some nice login screen here / http://gnome-look.org/
[13:15] <Lalon> but it doesnt work here
[13:15] <dury> Beyecixramd: how do I know which one is installed?
[13:15] <Misterio> Lalon: They use different commands
[13:15] <aguitel> i have scanner epson cx5600 ,anyone know to install this in ubuntu lucid?
[13:15] <bazhang> rafaek, /msg ubottu please
[13:16] <Beyecixramd> abhijain: but for editing files i recommend you the .odt format. OpenOffice.org Writer exports .odt files by defauly
[13:16] <josephseraos> does anyone program Java?
[13:16] <Lalon> Misterio:  can u tell me the command bro
[13:16] <markitoxs> on an acer 5160z  (intel ICH7 )i suddenly get no sound, lshw shows the hardweare is there, however aplay -l says no soundcards are detected, cat /proc/asound/cards also shows it, any ideas on how to troubleshoot this?
[13:16] <Sary> tara: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[13:16] <Beyecixramd> dury: you don't have any flash plugin installed
[13:16] <Misterio> Lalon: Configurating a proxy is easier that using /firewall and that things.
[13:16] <Misterio> Lalon: And, what irc client are you using?
[13:16] <Beyecixramd> Sary: GDM themes are not supported anymore since Ubuntu Jaunty :(
[13:16] <Lalon> Misterio:  how to do thta in kvirc can u tell me
[13:16] <Lalon> kvirc
[13:16] <Misterio> meh, never used it :P
[13:16] <Lalon> lol
[13:17] <Lalon> Misterio:  which one u using
[13:17] <Misterio> Lalon: irssi
[13:17] <Lalon> im gonna download that
[13:17] <dury> Beyecixramd: I guess there is... but the question is how do I know which one is installed?
[13:17] <Lalon> irssi same like mirc?
[13:17] <Sary> bazhang: Pm please
[13:17] <Edessa> .
[13:17] <Misterio> Lalon: I don't recommend irssi to you, it's terminal based
[13:17] <Lalon> omg
[13:17] <bazhang> Sary, sure
[13:17] <Beyecixramd> dury by default there isn't Flash installed. If you have flash, you have Adobe Flash, but you installed it manually
[13:17] <Sary> Xchat is fine
[13:17] <abhijain> Beyecixramd: what abt pdf edit ?
[13:17] <sectroyer> There is no way to "kill X" ?
[13:17] <Indy_> Hi
[13:17] <Lalon> Sary:  really
[13:18] <Sary> you can even have themes for Xchat
[13:18] <Lalon> then i might check xchat
[13:18] <Beyecixramd> abhijain: what do you mean by pdf edit?
[13:18] <Lalon> what u guys say?
[13:18] <Beyecixramd> sectroyer: well, log off and log back in
[13:18] <Misterio> Lalon: Yes, xchat is like mirc, I used it when I was newby
[13:18] <Indy_> How do I setup application access policies
[13:18] <Sary> Lalon: Yep
[13:18] <MaRk-I> abhijain: go to software center and in search type pdf editor
[13:18] <Lalon> Sary:  kvirc has themes too
[13:18] <Lalon> Misterio:  lol so now ur expert
[13:18] <Beyecixramd> sectroyer also, you can enable Ctrl + Alt + Backspace, if you enable that shortcut
[13:18] <Lalon> right
[13:18] <Lalon> :P
[13:18] <Sary> Lalon: oh Okay
[13:18] <Misterio> Lalon: "Expert" not, I just know a little bit more that when I began with GNU/Linux
[13:18] <sectroyer> Beyecixramd: I don't want to restart X I want to turn it off
[13:19] <Lalon> Sary:  allright.. then u gonna tell me all the help related topics about xchat done!
[13:19] <Misterio> s/that/than
[13:19] <sectroyer> Beyecixramd: How can I enable it? It's the first linux that has this disabled :(
[13:19] <Beyecixramd> sectroyer: sudo init 3, that makes you go to CLI interface only
[13:19] <Lalon> Misterio:  allright then can u help me with a usb modem problem?
[13:19] <Beyecixramd> sectroyer: to enable it, do startx or sudo init 5
[13:19] <abhijain>  MaRk-I: Installed but dont know how to edit it seems complicated
[13:19] <Pici> !runlevels | Beyecixramd
[13:19] <Beyecixramd> sectroyer: probably you don't have X because your graphics card isn't supported
[13:19] <Sary> Lalon:  i will if i know about it
[13:19] <Misterio> Lalon: Don't ask to a user, ask to channel, so everyone will be able to help you ;)
[13:19] <Beyecixramd> Pici: errr... i know...
[13:20] <Lalon> Sary:  i hope u know about proxy configure
[13:20] <sectroyer> Beyecixramd: I have X server running I wan to turn it off :( sudo init 3 doesn't do anything :(
[13:20] <Lalon> Misterio:  ohh okk
[13:20] <Sary> Lalon:  Are you Okay chill out
[13:20] <Misterio> Lalon: If you're paranoid you can use Tor, it's the best proxy, and you can use it with freenode and with more services
[13:20] <Sary> Lalon:  i hope so too ;)
[13:20] <Lalon> Sary:  okey
[13:20] <Misterio> !tor | Lalon
[13:21] <aramroth> sectroyer: sudo /etc/init.d gdm stop
[13:21] <sectroyer> Beyecixramd: Ctrl+alt+backspace does nothing in 10.4, init 3 does nothing :( Is there any other way to turn off it :(
[13:21] <aramroth> this should kill X
[13:21] <Lalon> i hav cloaks
[13:21] <Lalon> ;)
[13:21] <Sary> Misterio: there is cloak also , right
[13:21] <Lalon> with another nick
[13:21] <Lalon> lmao
[13:21] <sectroyer> aramroth: This kills gnome, X server is still running :(
[13:21] <Beyecixramd> sectroyer: you have to ENABLE that keystroke
[13:21] <Lalon> so
[13:21] <aramroth> always worked for me
[13:21] <sectroyer> Beyecixramd: How ?
[13:22] <Beyecixramd> sectroyer: i told you, in the keyboard shortctut editor, in preferences or something
[13:22] <Beyecixramd> sectroyer: that'll restart X
[13:22] <sectroyer> Beyecixramd: I seee
[13:22] <sectroyer> Beyecixramd: On any other linux that I use Ctrl+Alt+Backspace doesn't "restart X" it "kills X". Can I make it "kill X" ?
[13:23] <Beyecixramd> sectroyer: that shortcut, ALWAYS has been set to RESTART X
[13:23] <Beyecixramd> sectroyer: if it KILLS it, then something's wrong
[13:23] <dury> I'm running karmic 64 bit
[13:23] <sectroyer> Beyecixramd: Maybe on ubuntu :)
[13:23] <Lalon> i have a usb modem .. but my ubuntu doesnt detect it so i cant use internet in ubuntu.. so everytime i login to xp then my plag and play software detect my modem and then i restart xp then login to ubuntu.. then i see my modem is detected.. so the problem is if i login in ubuntu, ubuntu doesnt detect my modem.. so i use xp to detect my modem .. do u know hwo to solve this problem?
[13:23] <Lalon> read it
[13:23] <Lalon> :D
[13:23] <dury> so need 64bit flashplayer
[13:24] <Pici> sectroyer: No, that has always been the restart X shortcut on every xorg release I've used, Ubuntu or not.
[13:24] <Beyecixramd> dury: Adobe doesn't make 64 bit flashplayer for linux
[13:24] <abhijain> MaRk-I: can u help me how to edit pdf in pdfeditor
[13:24] <Sary> bazhang: i really need to use that ! commands ;)
[13:24] <sectroyer> Pici: Try gentoo.
[13:24] <sectroyer> :)
[13:24] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: USB Modems are messy. Manufacturers tend to skip Linux supoprt

[13:24] <Somelauw> How do I start php in interactive mode? I tried php -a, but it doesn't show any output?
[13:24] <Lalon> Beyecixramd:  ohh i see.. :(
[13:24] <abhijain> ok
[13:25] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: you can't use them on Mac OS X as well
[13:25] <dury> Beyecixramd: so what should I do, What you suggest me?
[13:25] <sectroyer> Pici: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_System
[13:25] <Lalon> Beyecixramd:  yeah only i can use it on windows.. but u see im using it now in ubuntu.. so if ubuntu can detect my modem.. then my problem is solved
[13:25] <sectroyer> "...Control-Alt-Backspace typically terminates the currently running X session.."
[13:25] <Sary> Beyecixramd: We can blame Apple & Microsoft too ;)
[13:26] <Beyecixramd> dury: i'm currently using GNash, the free, open source implementation for Flash, it's not as good as flash, but works on 64
[13:26] <sectroyer> terminates is not a synonym of "restarts" :)
[13:26] <Lalon> so i have to find out a way to detect my modem.. in ubuntu.. thats i think
[13:26] <Lalon> so i need a real expert
[13:26] <Lalon> :D
[13:26] <Beyecixramd> dury: either that, or install the 32 bit libraries, and get 32 bit flash player
[13:26] <Pici> sectroyer: Well, gdm restarts X automatically after it dies.
[13:26] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: what you need is your manufacturer to WRITE DRIVERS FOR LINUX actually
[13:26] <sectroyer> Pici: I would like to find out how to turn it off :)
[13:26] <Sary> Beyecixramd: Thats right
[13:26] <Beyecixramd> Sary: :P
[13:26] <Lalon> hmmm.. but man they dont care about linux
[13:26] <Lalon> they only care about windows..
[13:27] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: exactly. Don't buy their products then :)
[13:27] <Lalon> but i care about linux.. and here is the clash of the civilization..
[13:27] <Pici> sectroyer: stopping gdm will stop x.
[13:27] <dury> Beyecixramd: what's the way to install 32 bit libraries?
[13:27] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: since a while i don't buy things which are FULLY SUPPORTED in Linux
[13:27] <Lalon> Beyecixramd: lol man in our country u cannot find a linux supported modem
[13:27] <Lalon> :D
[13:27] <Beyecixramd> dury apt-get install ia32libs i believe, Google is your friend
[13:27] <Lalon> its rare in asia
[13:27] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: buy it on internet
[13:27] <Lalon> Beyecixramd:  lol
[13:28] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: China is a big community using Linux
[13:28] <sectroyer> Pici: Okay, thanks :)
[13:28] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: after all, they're all communists, what did you expect :P
[13:28] <Lalon> china yeah.. also using windows same time :P
[13:28] <Pici> Beyecixramd, Lalon: Can we try to stay on-topic here?
[13:28] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: well, but at least the Linux implementation there is bigger
[13:28] <Beyecixramd> Pici: sorry :P
[13:28] <Lalon> may b they are doing same thing for usb detecting what i do
[13:28] <Lalon> lmao
[13:28] <Lalon> Pici:  ok
[13:28] <sectroyer> bye
[13:29] <owd95> is it normal that ubunyu use 1.5gb of 4gb ram when you only use pidgin, x-chatt and googlechrome?
[13:29] <Beyecixramd> owd95: yes, totally normal. Linux caches memory to run faster
[13:29] <Beyecixramd> owd95: unlike Windows, Linux uses as much RAM as it can
[13:29] <Lalon> i use 512 mb ram
[13:29] <Beyecixramd> owd95: that means less wait to start programs
[13:29] <aramroth> unlike windows xp and earlier
[13:30] <ackbahr> Hi everyone! I've got an acpi issue on my eeepc : when the screen dims after a few seconds of inactivity, moving the mouse returns it to a farely dark setting, but certainly not to the one before dimming.... Can someone help me fix this please?
[13:30] <BluesKaj> Howdy
[13:30] <Beyecixramd> aramroth: unlike Windows 7 and earlier ;)
[13:30] <aramroth> vista's and 7's prefetch works like linux with preload
[13:30] <owd95> Beyecixramd: thx!
[13:30] <karuru> how can i set it that the default choice in grub is windows xp?
[13:30] <aramroth> vista and 7 cache memory too
[13:30] <Beyecixramd> no, aramroth, superfetch only works for a few programs
[13:30] <aramroth> that's why they take so much ram
[13:30] <Sary> Sary: Hello Ubuntu , welcome All newcomers ;)
[13:30] <Lalon> how can i create pdf file in ubuntu
[13:30] <Beyecixramd> aramroth: in which bootscreen, Internet Explorer and Office are included. Nothing else
[13:30] <Froberg> ...
[13:30] <Somelauw> How do I start php in interactive mode? I tried php -a, but it doesn't show any output?
[13:30] <Beyecixramd> aramroth: also, XP had superfetch too
[13:30] <Sary> !grub

[13:31] <Somelauw> Lalon, latex?
[13:31] <Lalon> what is latext
[13:31] <Lalon> latex
[13:31] <Lalon> Beyecixramd:  sure? its a word processor
[13:31] <karuru> how can i set it that the default choice in grub is windows xp? (i have grub 2 (lucid lync) grub is not broken)
[13:31] <Pici> !latex | Lalon
[13:32] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: sure. You just press "export as PDF"
[13:32] <Froberg> Can someone please tell me where I get a list of nicks in Xchat? First time user here, sorry for newbishness
[13:32] <Froberg> I am too used to mIRC methinks
[13:32] <Beyecixramd> Froberg: /list i believe
[13:32] <Lalon> Pici:  i can use  writer.. because i have installed it
[13:32] <Froberg> Beyecixramd : I can't view it constantly?
[13:32] <dury> Beyecixramd: those libraries already installed
[13:33] <Beyecixramd> Froberg: you should have a list of users on the right
[13:33] <dury> Beyecixramd: I mean 32 bits ones
[13:33] <Sary> karuru: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2
[13:33] <Beyecixramd> dury: great, now go install 32 bit flash player
[13:33] <Pici> Froberg: I believe  you can right-click on the chat and select an option to turn on the user list.  I don't use xchat myself, so I may be wrong.
[13:33] <Lalon> so ppl tell me something
[13:33] <dury> Beyecixramd: as normal?
[13:34] <Beyecixramd> dury: yeah, should work
[13:34] <Froberg> Pici,  right-clicking only gives me copy.. and the user list you mentioned Beyecixramd only works for quick-referencing, it auto-closes all the time :(
[13:34] <dury> Beyecixramd: see what's happened
[13:34] <Froberg> But then.. this is the xchat gnome IRC.. maybe with the official client..
[13:35] <Sary> !hello

[13:41] <Beyecixramd> lol Sary
[13:41] <Lalon> ok
[13:41] <zachary> hi i am trying to install Photoshop 7 via wine. i right click on the Setup.exe and chose to open with Wine and I get the following "The file '/home/zachary/Downloads/Photoshop 7 + serial key (working)/Ps_7/Setup.exe' is not marked as executable.  If this was downloaded or copied form an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run.  For more details, read about the executable bit."
[13:42] <MasterOfDisaster> Guest83234: chmod +x file
[13:42] <Lalon> nothing as network meter
[13:42] <dury> have to go be back later... lunch time over here
[13:42] <Sary> zachary: some program dosn't work well under wine as i notice
[13:42] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: i don't know! network, meter search for separate words
[13:42] <Guest83234> Sary, i'm just trying to get it installed ;(
[13:42] <MasterOfDisaster> Guest83234: see 'man chmod' for more information about the executable bit
[13:42] <Beyecixramd> Sary: it's not related to Wine
[13:43] <Lalon> okkk Beyecixramd
[13:43] <Guest83234> MasterofDisaster, ok let me try to chmod it
[13:43] <Sary> Beyecixramd: oh okay , i though so
[13:43] <fablinix> anyone having problems with dockbarx using the system’s default gnome panel background even though you changed it?
[13:43] <Lalon> :(
[13:43] <saleh> hi i need help with my ubuntu10.4 ,the problem is when i start updatemanger or ubuntu softwarecenter ,system will stop working ,but if i close them the system will work again .(so i can not install any application)/how can i solve this problem
[13:43] <Beyecixramd> fablinix: some GNOME themes don't play nice with some applets
[13:44] <Sary> Guest83234: i have installed Paltalk today through Wine and it went well
[13:44] <logni> How do i uninstall apache2?
[13:44] <logni> apt-get purge apache2 removes hardly anything
[13:44] <logni> :|
[13:44] <Lalon> Beyecixramd:  is there anything like msn here.. where i can share photos, can do webcam chat.. and stuffs
[13:45] <Sary> Lalon: Emesene
[13:45] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: sorry. MSN is a closed source, propietary protocol. Microsoft bans some of the features so that non-official clients can't use them
[13:45] <Sary> aMsn , never i didn't try it though
[13:45] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: there's Emesene, and KMess, but they don't have all features
[13:45] <Guest83234> MasterofDisaster, when I run that command should I get some sort of confirmation the file has changed? I don't: zachary@zachary-laptop:~/Downloads/PS/Ps_7$ chmod +x Setup.exe
[13:45] <Guest83234> zachary@zachary-laptop:~/Downloads/PS/Ps_7$
[13:45] <Lalon> Sary:  i got empathy is that same with emesene
[13:45] <Beyecixramd> Lalon:  i suggest you to switch to the fully open source XMPP network
[13:46] <Lalon> Beyecixramd:  allright..
[13:46] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: Empathy lacks some MSN features, but yes, it works for sending and receiving messages
[13:46] <saleh> hi i need help with my ubuntu10.4 ,the problem is when i start updatemanger or ubuntu softwarecenter ,system will stop working ,but if i close them the system will work again .(so i can not install any application)/how can i solve this problem??????
[13:46] <Sary> Lalon: no , there is less features with empathy
[13:46] <fablinix> Beyecixramd: the odd thing is that it uses only a little bit of it, look: http://pici.se/pictures/MvawWGooZ.png
[13:46] <MasterOfDisaster> Guest83234: no, you can check with 'ls -lhA'
[13:46] <MaRk-I> dury try this:   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1329654
[13:46] <Guest83234> MasterofDisaster, ah perfect ty
[13:46] <Beyecixramd> totally normal, fablinix
[13:46] <Lalon> Sary:  allright so u saying that emenese is better than empathy?
[13:47] <Lalon> then why does ubunti give empathy as default .. for chat
[13:47] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: because Empathy is for ALL networks, Emesene only works for MSN
[13:47] <Beyecixramd> Lalon:  Empathy is also better integrated with the system
[13:47] <Lalon> Beyecixramd:  allright got it
[13:47] <Sary> Lalon:  i use emense for more features
[13:47] <thewanderer1> does Empathy work with Jabber already?
[13:47] <Guest83234> MasterofDisaster, i want to ty so much. that seemed to have fixed it and i am installing PS righ tnow!
[13:47] <Lalon> Beyecixramd:  how big is emesene

[13:48] <logni> How can I list all apache2 packages with the flag i?
[13:48] <logni> How can I list all apache2 packages with the flag i?

[13:48] <Lalon> okey
[13:48] <MasterOfDisaster> Guest83234: you're welcome
[13:48] <Beyecixramd> thewanderer1: Empathy is improving at a really fast speed, it should work now

[13:50] <rizzuh> How can I see the system specs like CPU, memory, and GPU from 9.04?
[13:50] <Lalon> but now im testing open source
[13:50] <Lalon> u see
[13:50] <Lalon> im on linux
[13:50] <rizzuh> (I'm on a live CD or I'd use lucid)
[13:50] <mengu> hi. what's the error with that? http://pastie.org/1051929
[13:51] <MasterOfDisaster> rizzuh: lspci, lsusb, cat /proc/meminfo, cat /proc/cpuinfo
[13:51] <Sary> i can blame everyone but GNU/Linux , thats for sure
[13:51] <goten> i have installed google earth but it not working only splash screen appears and quits automatically
[13:51] <MaRk-I> rizzuh: sudo lshw  in terminal
[13:52] <abhijit> goten, on lucid?
[13:52] <rizzuh> Thanks MaRk-I and MasterOfDisaster!
[13:52] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: that's good, but don't blame developers like "program X sucks"
[13:52] <Sary> goten:
[13:52] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: they are doing a really HARD WORK decrypting how MSN works
[13:53] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: if you don't like it, contribute and improve
[13:53] <thewanderer1> I know a bit on that, had to do the same with Gadu-Gadu once...
[13:53] <ocs> hi. I have two monitors and two respective X sessions. In addition, I have a ssh server listening. How can I connect, from a remote host, to the desktop of the X session 2 ?
[13:53] <Beyecixramd> Lalon: otherwise, use open source protocols, like XMPP which work perfectly with all programs... errr... except Windows Live Messenger :P
[13:53] <thewanderer1> ocs, you connect and set DISPLAY accordingly
[13:53] <ocs> I mean, after doing ssh -X foo@host  , what I should do?
[13:54] <thewanderer1> do you want to launch applications on DISPLAY 2?
[13:54] <ocs> thewanderer1: yes
[13:54] <thewanderer1> you won't be seeing them you know, just the person who sees the display will
[13:54] <mengu> oh i found it
[13:54] <Sary> Beyecixramd: Take a cup of Coffee :)
[13:54] <ocs> thewanderer1: I know, but how can I do?
[13:54] <thewanderer1> you can't run an app via ssh and expect to see it while displaying it on the other screen
[13:55] <thewanderer1> for that, use VNC
[13:55] <ocs> thewanderer1: that's not may aim
[13:55] <Beyecixramd> Sary: see, they just piss me off with their "program X sucks because it doesn't work with Y propietary implementation"
[13:55] <ocs> I don't want to share desktop
[13:55] <Beyecixramd> Sary: like "openoffice sux because it doesn't open .docx reliably"
[13:55] <thewanderer1> ocs, so if you want to run a program on a remote desktop only, set DISPLAY properly
[13:55] <ocs> thewanderer1: ok, but in which way?
[13:55] <ocs> export DISPLAY=2 ?
[13:56] <thewanderer1> if you don't know the desired value, launch a terminal on your display there and see the correct value
[13:56] <Sary> Beyecixramd: Yeah , thats lame ..
[13:56] <zano> hi
[13:56] <zano> i'm new
[13:56] <goten> yes i`m using lucid
[13:56] <saleh> how can i see ethe installed program in ubuntu 10.4 with terminal?
[13:56] <Sary> zano: Hello , welcome aboard
[13:56] <jepong> welcome zano
[13:56] <thewanderer1> ocs, you should also remember that you won't be able to invade someone else's session in terms of users
[13:57] <ocs> thewanderer1: again, I already know that
[13:57] <ocs> anyway, I found how to set display.
[13:57] <ocs> now: how can I launch gdm remotely ?
[13:57] <thewanderer1> /etc/init.d/gdm start ...
[13:57] <MasterOfDisaster> saleh: Not sure if I understood correctly, but I'd guess 'dpkg --get-selections'
[13:57] <thewanderer1> but GDM spawns its own X server
[13:57] <ocs> thewanderer1: on kde I launched kdesktop
[13:58] <ocs> are you sure that I have to launche gdm in this way?
[13:58] <thewanderer1> do you want GDM or GNOME?
[13:58] <ocs> thewanderer1: sorry. gnome
[13:58] <ocs> (right question)
[13:58] <abhijit> how to know version of postfresql?
[13:58] <thewanderer1> ocs, then you have to init it like GDM does
[13:59] <abhijit> !pm | goten
[13:59] <ocs> thewanderer1: I'm sure there's a faster way. on kde I simply launched kdesktop
[13:59] <thewanderer1> ocs, preferably yes, although I believe you should have run startkde
[14:00] <goten> okay
[14:00] <thewanderer1> ocs, but I don't see a friendly script on GNOME... I don't like GNOME anyway :P

[14:01] <io> doug73: What is your actual question?
[14:01] <cablop> i send my machine to hibernate yesterday.... now it is sleeping and seems that i's not willing to wake up
[14:01] <cablop> what can i do?
[14:01] <abhijit> goten, you can reply to anyone you wan to speak like this.
[14:01] <thewanderer1> cablop, hibernate is nothing more than a shutdown with RAM saved to SWAP.... just power it on
[14:01] <barfster> I am trying to boot Ubuntu 10.04 MiniCD from iso using grub2: Anyone able to help? http://pastebin.org/407940 answer is here -> http://wwww.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9501034&postcount=16

[14:02] <doug73> i am looking for a program for drawing chemical structures that is compartible with Isisi Draw
[14:02] <nio> hi abhijit
[14:02] <cablop> i powered it on and it is frozen....
[14:02] <abhijit> hi nio
[14:02] <ocs> thewanderer1: so, what could be the way to start gnome from a remote host ?
[14:02] <goten> abhijit, can u help me to solve this problem
[14:02] <cablop> i mean i hea the fans working and see onw light in the keyboard... but nothing else
[14:02] <thewanderer1> ocs, export DISPLAY=:1.0; gnome-session;
[14:03] <thewanderer1> cablop, was it hibernated or suspended to S3?
[14:03] <nio> abhijit india
[14:03] <abhijit> goten, mean while i forgot your problem :)
[14:03] <thewanderer1> there's a difference between hibernate and suspend
[14:03] <abhijit> nio, yes please join #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:03] <cablop> i selected hibernate
[14:03] <cablop> i know what is each thing, i just wonder what is failing on my ubuntu... :(
[14:03] <thewanderer1> cablop, can you see anything when you switch to a console
[14:03] <sipior> doug73: might find this useful: http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~noel/linux4chemistry/ Can't vouch for its modernity, of course.
[14:04] <cablop> can't switch
[14:04] <goten> google earth is not working
[14:04] <moe`> http://forums.techarena.in/vista-help/659651.htm
[14:04] <cablop> and it restarted... :(
[14:04] <thewanderer1> cablop, it does happen... Linux hibernate doesn't support every hardware out there
[14:04] <goten> abhijit, google earth is not working
[14:04] <ocs> thewanderer1: great. thanks for all
[14:04] <stefanos> hi, where can i change the background of the cube?
[14:04] <thewanderer1> cablop, with my Acer I had to wait a year for proper support... be patient :P
[14:05] <abhijit> goten, ohh that one. that is know not to work on lucid. and I dont know if it is solved yet or not. you search google for this. it crashes here too I am also using lucid (64 bit)
[14:05] <cablop> i was able to hibernate this pachine 3 years ago with another version... also windows hibernate it nicely too
[14:05] <bazhang> moe`, that is for vista; this is Ubuntu support
[14:05] <moe`> bazhang: Error: "that" is not a valid command.
[14:05] <bazhang> moe`, are you a bot
[14:05] <moe`> bazhang: Error: "are" is not a valid command.
[14:06] <doug73> sipior thank you for the link, i also found some programs, but i am looking for some chemist who have already tried those programs
[14:06] <ilya> anyone had any luck with getting a buffalo usb wireless adapter (wli-u2-g300n) to work on 10.4?
[14:06] <goten> abhijit, , okay thanks but few months back it worked fine for me
[14:06] <eDuCondoR> how go the sala in spanish??????????
[14:06] <eDuCondoR> how go the sala in spanish??????????
[14:06] <sipior> doug73: then you are looking in the wrong place.
[14:06] <eDuCondoR> how go the sala in spanish??????????

[14:06] <stefanos> hi, where can i change the background of the cube?
[14:07] <goten> Sary, okay i will try that
[14:07] <cablop> well, it restarted, the bad way, but it did
[14:07] <cablop> i'll sort that later
[14:07] <sipior> doug73: your best bet is to ask around among your colleagues.
[14:07] <goten> abhijit, thanks for the reply
[14:07] <ilya> i want to install ubuntu but cant use it if my wireless doesnt work, if it doesnt work off the live cd it won't after i install i guess?
[14:07] <doug73> sipior why this? i am looking for a program that really works. i know that there are many tools, but they are not really compartible with isis draw. hence i thought that this ubuntu channel is the right on for my request
[14:07] <cablop> i installed compiz incon, but it just dissapeared today,. how can i get it back?
[14:07] <abhijit> goten, welcome :)
[14:08] <sipior> doug73: how many chemists do you believe frequent a linux help channel? i imagine there's one or two, but that hardly seems a sensible strategy to begin with.
[14:08] <Lalon> i have another problem in ubuntu
[14:08] <RandyRKelly> hello can anyone help me install ubuntu
[14:09] <doug73> sipior hence i asked for chemists....

[14:14] <thewanderer1> jepong, the Debian folks keep repeating all over, use aptitude, use aptitude!
[14:14] <sergiu14> is there a way to connect through xdmcp to the latest ubuntu using windows? (i;m using Xbrowser on windows)
[14:14] <jepong> thewanderer1, im a aptitude user myself
[14:15] <saleh> so no one know what is the problem?:(
[14:15] <abhijit> is there any postgresql channel?
[14:15] <thewanderer1> jepong, I actually prefer apt-get but use whatever works, aptitude is just safer with dist-upgrades (safe-upgrade)
[14:15] <Vroomfondle> abhijit: #postgres
[14:16] <abhijit> thanks Vroomfondle
[14:16] <thewanderer1> saleh, bus errors are a sign of a memory error
[14:16] <thewanderer1> saleh, are you using stable Ubuntu?
[14:16] <jepong> canonical will remove aptitude on meerkat thewanderer1
[14:17] <lazzarus> got problems with my sound card any help please?
[14:17] <nio> abhijit you read my problem above
[14:17] <jpds> jepong: ubuntu*
[14:17] <abhijit> nio, yes I read and I dunno about solution :(
[14:17] <nio> ok :) i'll manage
[14:18] <thewanderer1> jepong, what will be left then?
[14:18] <thewanderer1> this is madness...
[14:18] <jepong> apt-get?
[14:18] <thewanderer1> man, if you told that in #debian...
[14:19] <thewanderer1> it'd be like "They're substituting Linux with OpenBSD kernel"
[14:20] <enriq> hi I have a java program that I want to launch but I want to store its PID so I can kill it later, I think there is a generic way of launching a program and knowing its PID, isn't it?
[14:20] <jepong> thewanderer1, http://www.webupd8.org/2010/06/aptitude-removed-from-ubuntu-1010.html
[14:20] <abhijit> is latest postgresql in the repo or i need to install it manually?
[14:21] <abhijit> i.e. 9.*
[14:21] <Oer> abhijit, did you check synaptic ?
[14:21] <abhijit> Oer, no i ddnt
[14:21] <cablop> in fact aptitude wast not the base way to install things in ubuntu...
[14:22] <abhijit> Oer, i am here in standard account. to check that i need to login to admin account
[14:22]  * RandyRKelly talking about she went some were over night last night snd just got home this am.   said i couldnt confort her bs
[14:22] <Oer> oke
[14:22] <Kwpolska> 'admin' account? don't use windows terminology
[14:23] <RandyRKelly> lol expressing
[14:23] <h00k> !root
[14:23] <thewanderer1> sudo passwd root
[14:23] <thewanderer1> and there you go with real Unix ways
[14:24] <thewanderer1> be a man :P
[14:24] <bazhang> thewanderer1, please do NOT recommend that here
[14:24] <h00k> thewanderer1: we don't support root passwords
[14:24] <cablop> i don't know why ubuntu kleeps that idea of restricting people to use th root accoint
[14:24] <cablop> why??
[14:25] <DaZ> cablop: for teh lulz.
[14:25] <cablop> some people is good enough at computers that they're able to log s root an work
[14:25] <jbl_> enriq: "man pidof"
[14:25] <MasterOfDisaster> heretic - get the torches...
[14:25] <komputes> thewanderer1: thewanderer1 cablop https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
[14:25] <thewanderer1> yeah
[14:25] <jpds> cablop: Because it's not supported and Ubuntu isn't designed to be used that way.
[14:25] <cablop> anyway, it is supposed that linux is feedom, so if we were looking to be asked all the time to not to do this or that... we were in windows
[14:25] <erUSUL> cablop: people good at computers know better than to work as root.
[14:26] <komputes> The superuser can do anything and everything, and thus doing daily work as the superuser can be dangerous.
[14:26] <MasterOfDisaster> cablop, thewanderer1: familiar with the concept: "don't ask, don't tell"? :D
[14:26] <cablop> not all the time, of course
[14:26] <io> cablop: People have said that it "isn't supported", not that it "isn't possible". That wiki page has more information.
[14:26] <erUSUL> cablop: if i saw someone logged as root i know they are are not good at computers :)
[14:26] <doug73> any chemists / chemistry students around here who are confirm with structure programs like ISIS draw that are confirm with isis draw?
[14:26] <enriq> jbl_, but pidof java would return several pids as I run many java programs
[14:27]  * DaZ logs in as root
[14:27] <DaZ> dun dun dunn
[14:27] <cablop> i use to log as root just to do things easier and faster, also to hide what i did from my normal user log and so on
[14:27] <Jinxed-> I have a new install of 10.04 and I had some questions: 1) how do i get the close/min/max buttons back to the right side 2) How do I find out which wireless drivers I should install 3) I accidenitly removed the volume control from the panel and I can't seem to get it back... how do i get it back?
[14:27] <enriq> jbl_, I think I need something more like "lauch xxx and print pid somewhere"
[14:27] <komputes> By default, the root account password is locked in Ubuntu. Sudo allows authorized admin users to run programs as root.
[14:28] <ikonia> ???
[14:28] <DaZ> lolwut
[14:28] <thewanderer1> Jinxed-, http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/13535/move-window-buttons-back-to-the-right-in-ubuntu-10.04/
[14:28] <ohir> heh
[14:29] <skumara> jinxed for volume control right click taskbar and choose add to panel
[14:29] <jbl_> enriq: how about this: <command line to start your java thing> & and then use the $! special bash variable
[14:29] <komputes> wow
[14:29] <cablop> Jinxed-: there's an entry in the gconf-manager for the button thing, but i forgot it... you can try right clicking in the panel and adding the volume gadget, and
[14:29] <komputes> thewanderer1: cablop: Anyway, as I was saying, you can so the same in ubuntu, just log in as the admin and run sudo -s or sudo -i
[14:30] <cablop> Jinxed-: sorry no idea in how to deal with wireless
[14:30] <faLUCE> thewanderer1: when I launch gnome session, I can see it only when DISPLAY is localhost:10.0 (corresponding to the first monitor) . If I set DISPLAY=localhost:10.1 (which I suppose is the session for the second monitor) it can't launch gnome-session... why?
[14:30] <badpenguin86> Problem: I can't get sound to work on m macbook using alsa, oss, or pulse audio.
[14:30] <erUSUL> Jinxed-: 2) lspci | grep -i network 3) put the indicator applet back in the panel and make sure you have indicator-sound intalled
[14:30] <erUSUL> !controls | Jinxed- for 1) see
[14:30] <RandyRKelly> tell me this. whats the best way to install ubuntu?
[14:30] <RandyRKelly> well run on ?
[14:30] <bazhang> !install > RandyRKelly
[14:30] <DaZ> ikonia: isn't banning the whole shell a little extreme? >:
[14:31] <ikonia> DaZ: yes, it will be resolved shortly
[14:31] <MasterOfDisaster> enriq: if you don't want to use pidof, pgrep, ps and friends, what about start-stop-daemon?
[14:31] <Jinxed-> thanks cablop erUSUL
[14:31] <DaZ> uhm.
[14:31] <RandyRKelly> ok thanks ubottu
[14:31] <erUSUL> enriq: use a pid file ?
[14:31] <abhijit> ikonia, what is shellium?
[14:31] <ikonia> abhijit: google
[14:31] <abhijit> ikonia, ok
[14:32] <thewanderer1> faLUCE, make sure you're using the right DISPLAY settings
[14:32] <imanc> hey guys - I am about to set up a hosting account with a company and they only support up to ubuntu server 8 with plesk control panel. I need to run python/django sites which require a level of configuration and reasonably up to date versions of python etc.  I'm worried ubuntu 8 may cause problems.  Does anyone have any advice?
[14:32] <ibqn> can you tell me the command name of the application, which can be accessed by menu item System >Preferences > Sound ?
[14:32] <thewanderer1> imanc, it will cause problems.
[14:32] <cablop> anyway, i just recommend to not to keep in root too much time, and use the sudo thing, if you are going to do a very long and hard and deep maintenance task you can log as root anyway, but you are in a very high risk to mess things
[14:32] <imanc> thewanderer1: damn. Because it's dated?
[14:32] <cablop> lol
[14:32] <cablop> this ubuntu thing is weird
[14:33] <abhijit> ibqn, you can know yourself by right click on ubuntu logo which is on left side of 'Applicaions' and see for the command
[14:33] <cablop> i selected a mouse cursosr, but it just works on the gtk windows if i move my mouse over a qt window the mouse pointer shows as a little default pointer
[14:33] <ibqn> abhijit, I do not have this menu item
[14:34] <thewanderer1> imanc, pretty much... you still get the security updates, but not feature updates
[14:34] <bandeira> how can i enable that OK screen at the beginning of starting ubuntu?
[14:34] <thewanderer1> so it's worse than Debian Lanny probably now
[14:34] <imanc> argh :(
[14:34] <ohir> !lts | imanc
[14:34] <badpenguin86> Problem: I can't get sound to work on m macbook using alsa, oss, or pulse audio.
[14:34] <ader10> I'm having OpenSSH server trouble, which should have a simple solution. Please help me! http://pastebin.com/0FRQDAQN
[14:34] <abhijit> ibqn, you are in ubuntu desktop edition? which version?
[14:34] <ohir> imanc: 8.04 server is still supported and is solid rock. Thats why hosting companies use it
[14:34] <andres_> guys can you pls help me how to bring back the network manager and bluetooth icon on the panel. i accedentally delete it. thank you
[14:34] <ibqn> abhijit, I am not on ubuntu
[14:35] <abhijit> ibqn, ?? then ??
[14:35] <thewanderer1> imanc, if the company manages software, just find which versions of software they support
[14:35] <iceroot> ohir: desktop is also still supported
[14:35] <imanc> thewanderer1: I already ahd a server set up with these guys. IT was CentOS and I was stuck with Py 2.4 that broke the py app I had.  And there was no updates in teh repos and the company would not advise/support a py install from source and recommended against it.
[14:35] <erUSUL> andres_: add the notification area again
[14:35] <erUSUL> andres_: right click on the panel choose add to panel
[14:35] <ibqn> abhijit, can you please just me the command name?
[14:35] <erUSUL> abhijit: gnome-volume-control
[14:35] <ohir> imanc: you though can try to convince them to allow backports in their sources list
[14:35] <abhijit> ibqn, ok wait
[14:35] <abhijit> ibqn, see msg by erUSUL
[14:35] <imanc> hmm
[14:35] <thewanderer1> imanc, I'd say go with Debian if you are feeling good with the command line
[14:36] <thewanderer1> and if they offer 5.0
[14:36] <Pici> ibqn: This channel is only for Ubuntu support.
[14:36] <imanc> does debian compare to ubuntu in terms of having upto date packages?
[14:36] <lnl> hello
[14:36] <imanc> CentOS and RHL are horrid
[14:36] <ohir> imanc: almost all basic packages that you can find in never server wersions of ubuntu are backported to 8.04
[14:36] <enriq> jbl_, MasterOfDisaster, erUSUL thanks, I'll check out all ideas
[14:36] <lnl> Linux..
[14:36] <iceroot> imanc: debian stable packages are older then ubuntu stable packages
[14:36] <imanc> hmm
[14:36] <thewanderer1> imanc, but Debian Lenny is still more current than ubuntu 8.04
[14:37] <lnl> I love windows7 more than linux
[14:37] <DaZ> debian stable packages are older than the universe.
[14:37] <imanc> lnl: sad
[14:37] <iceroot> lnl: you have a support-question?
[14:37] <Pici> lnl: This is a support channel, do you have a support question?
[14:37] <andres_> erusul-i did it but there is no network mgr icon on the selection
[14:37] <thewanderer1> imanc, up do you to decide. just browse through the repos and pick what suits you
[14:37] <imanc> DaZ: probably not as old as CentOS packages. I think the OS is still 8bit
[14:37] <lnl> I think windows7 is more easy to use
[14:37] <erUSUL> andres_: alt + f2 run nm-applet
[14:37] <iceroot> lnl: stop it
[14:37] <ader10> I'm having OpenSSH server trouble, which should have a simple solution. Please help me! http://pastebin.com/0FRQDAQN
[14:38] <andres_> erusul- thank you
[14:38] <cablop> lnl: yes, it is, but eats moe computer than lucid
[14:38] <lnl> I've just make a ubuntu in my PC
[14:38] <thewanderer1> lnl, if you want an easy to use Linux with a familiar Windows touch, try Linspire - it might suit your needs and looks quite similar to win7 I think
[14:38] <ader10> Guys, lnl is trolling, please stop bumping my question up by replying to him
[14:38] <progre55> hi guys! what's the mode (in digits) for this kind of file perm "-rw-r-----"?
[14:38] <imanc> r/w user and r for other
[14:38] <iceroot> progre55: 640
[14:38] <thewanderer1> progre55, 0640
[14:38] <imanc> oh
[14:39] <progre55> thanks
[14:39] <lnl> linux is more difficult for me
[14:39] <progre55> iceroot, thewanderer1: thanks )
[14:39] <imanc> OK the other option I have .... ditch plesk and my hosting company will let me have Ubuntu 10.4 (yay) without CP.  It's just mail server config that is going to be a hassle
[14:39] <ohir> ader10: turn on full debug in putty on your windoze and pastebin that log
[14:39] <Pici> lnl: Again.  do you have an actual support question? If not, you may want to look at http://ubuntu-manual.org/
[14:39] <iceroot> progre55: (r)ead=4, (w)rite=2, e(x)ecutable=1  rw- = 4 +2
[14:39] <lnl> OK
[14:40] <lnl> forgive me
[14:40] <gmariano> Anyone using tracker to index files?
[14:40] <ader10> ohir: How do I turn full debug on in putty?
[14:40] <Jinxed-> erUSUL if I drag the administration -> sound to the panel it gives me sound support, but not where i can just click and adjust the sound right away... it launches a full sound menu... is there a way to get the quick sound adjustment back to the panel?
[14:40] <bazhang> lnl, welcome to chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:40] <thewanderer1> ader10, try with OpenSSH client first, then go for putty
[14:40] <Raydiation> hi could it be that ubuntus ssh server doesnt have AllowGroups in its ssh_config?
[14:40] <lnl> this is my first time using linux
[14:40] <ohir> ader10: its somewhere in site config dialog
[14:40] <bonez2046> my sound failed. the speaker icon at the top status bar just had - - after it instead of the sound wave symbol, it required a reboot to restore it.. Why? what process failed taking my sound with it?
[14:40] <iceroot> lnl: this channel is for support-questions, if you just want to chat, join #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:41] <erUSUL> Jinxed-: the sound indicator in the indicator applet does that
[14:41] <thewanderer1> bonez2046, pulseaudio
[14:41] <lnl> OK,I get it
[14:41] <faLUCE> thewanderer1: I don't know how
[14:41] <lnl> I have a problem in setup program
[14:41] <progre55> iceroot: oh now I got it =)
[14:42] <Jinxed-> erUSUL: right you are... just missed it because of the generic icon the first couple times... thanks again
[14:42] <bonez2046> thewanderer1: would the solution then be 'ps ax | grep pul[s]eaudio to find and kill and then restart the video/audio?
[14:42] <erUSUL> Jinxed-: no problem
[14:42] <thewanderer1> probably, or just relogin
[14:42] <skumara> lnl whats the problem?
[14:42] <doug73> any chemists / chemistry students around here who are confirm with structure programs like ISIS draw that are confirm with isis draw?

[14:43] <pensfan> is there a way to block all incomming ports temporarily even from the local network?
[14:43] <ader10> ohir: The log is never outputted for some reason
[14:43] <trojan_spike> firewall pensfan ?
[14:43] <abhijit> doug73, just for your info there is ##chemistry channel.
[14:44] <pensfan> trojan_spike: is there a quick one i can throw up?
[14:44] <rww> pensfan: sudo ufw enable
[14:44] <ohir> ader10: also 1) use 2048bit key, I doubt pageant can cope with 4096b. 2) make sure your public key on your ubuntu is readable by sshd user
[14:44] <glaucous> How do I make sure that all tmp files are saved in /dev/shm instead of /tmp? I'm sure I can link them somehow?
[14:44] <CkhiKuzad> I have a lot of stuff that i need help with. 1: I need to transfer grub onto my /dev/sdb1 disk. 2: I need to do a FULL backup of my ubuntu distro. 3: I need to know how to restore my backups to my drive from a different OS on that SDB drive (Debian lenny i think.) 4: I need a guide to upgrading ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10 correctly.
[14:44] <progre55> thewanderer1: thanks
[14:44] <ohir> ader10: there is place to fill in where log is to be _saved_. Putty do not "show" log, it writes it to disc
[14:44] <trojan_spike> firestarter is the one i use pensfan
[14:44] <ader10> ohir: I tried a 2048 bit key at first and used a 4096 after it didn't work (I could save putty's key as a 4096 bit one too)
[14:45] <Raydiation> does ubuntu use the original openssh package?
[14:45] <thewanderer1> ader10, ssh won't accept connections with a key if .ssh or authorized_keys have too loose permissions, set .ssh to 0700 and authorized_keys to 0600
[14:45] <ader10> ohir: I chose to save it to c:\users\ader10\putty.log, but the file was never created
[14:45] <rww> CkhiKuzad: No idea on most of those, but for (4) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades
[14:45] <faLUCE> [15:32] <thewanderer1> faLUCE, make sure you're using the right DISPLAY settings <-- in which way ?
[14:45] <ader10> thewanderer1: I'm pretty sure I did that but I'll double check right now
[14:45] <ohir> ader10: have you checked [x] detailed log ?
[14:45] <thewanderer1> Raydiation, there is no such thing. the original OpenSSH is now only on OpenBSD
[14:45] <rww> CkhiKuzad: oops, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KarmicUpgrades , sorry
[14:46] <CkhiKuzad> rww, thats the least important one. those before it are a failsafe for if the upgrade fails.
[14:46] <abhijit> doug73, how to sent it?
[14:46] <ader10> I don't see a detailed log option but I selected "all session output"
[14:46] <Raydiation> thewanderer1: because im wondering that sshd_config was renamed to ssh_config and the manpage is missing a lot of options
[14:47] <ohir> ader10: w8 a bit I need to run windoze (it will take some minute or two, windoze boots slowly in virtual box)
[14:47] <rww> Raydiation: ssh_config is the configuration file for the ssh client. sshd_config is still the configuration file for the server. If you don't have that file, you likely don't have the openssh-server package installed.
[14:47] <erUSUL> !upgrade | CkhiKuzad
[14:48] <Raydiation> rww: ty
[14:48] <trojan_spike> ohir, hibernate it when done
[14:48] <ader10> thewanderer1: permissions are fine
[14:48] <ader10> I'll try connecting from a linux client
[14:48] <CkhiKuzad> okidokia, let me ask again in a way that excludes the reason i am doing all of these backups.
[14:48] <thewanderer1> ader10, can even try localhost
[14:48] <CkhiKuzad> o.o
[14:48] <CkhiKuzad> damn you xchat.
[14:49] <CkhiKuzad> i didnt want to say okidokia. that was something with my autocomplete completing when i use the comma
[14:49] <kryl> hi
[14:50] <gb_> hello kryl
[14:50] <kryl> I don't find any solution to correct this error (luks+lvm+root) : cryptsetup lvm device name does not contain a dash
[14:50] <CkhiKuzad> ok, i need to do a full backup of my ubuntu distro, and i need to be able to restore all of those to my ubuntu drive if everything screws up
[14:50] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, how about a low level dump of your file system?
[14:50] <ohir> trojan_spike: yep. But sometimes it must be shut down.
[14:51] <Oer> !rsync
[14:51] <glaucous> Are there any other tmp folders except /tmp?
[14:51] <CkhiKuzad> s3r3n1t7_, if you mean dd then i am not so sure about it. but i have  a second partition on this drive
[14:51] <ohir> ader10: first do as thewanderer1 said: try to ssh you@localhost
[14:51] <thewanderer1> glacious, why don't you just mount tmofs over /tmp ?
[14:51] <ader10> I can get in from localhost
[14:51] <thewanderer1> s/tmofs/tmpfs/
[14:52] <thewanderer1> ader10, using a key?
[14:52] <ohir> ader10: if it will work, your problem is with putty config
[14:52] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, not about DD, i've been told it isn't the best of options. I'm using xfs here, which has it's own dump and restore utility. Perhaps there is a same utility for your FS?
[14:52] <ader10> I can get in from localhost using a key
[14:52] <thewanderer1> ader10, Bitvise Tunnellier is a Windows SSH client capable of using pure OpenSSH keys
[14:52] <glaucous> thewanderer1, you mean tmpfs?
[14:52] <ohir> ader10: ok. So run pageant first
[14:52] <thewanderer1> glaucous, yes
[14:52] <SaEeDIRHA> hello guys, i have ubuntu 10.04 server, i have disabled the line of SSH configuration file that shows MOTD , but still it shows me the message when i loggin , is there anyway that i can disable it ?
[14:52] <ohir> ader10: add your private key to pageant
[14:52] <CkhiKuzad> s3r3n1t7_, i use EXT2 i believe.
[14:53] <glaucous> thewanderer1, like this? mount tmpfs /tmp -t tmpfs -o size=64m
[14:53] <ader10> the problem isn't putty
[14:53] <Oer> glaucous, yes, flash cookies ~/.macromedia/Flash_Player/#SharedObjects/
[14:53] <ader10> I can't connect from another linux computer either
[14:53] <thewanderer1> glaucous, yeah
[14:53] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, open a terminal and type mount without options. It'll show a list of all mounted file systems. The one which is mounted on / should show you a filesystem. ext2 is rather odd, so could you confirm it for me please?
[14:53] <ader10> the port is open in my router, too :(
[14:53] <glaucous> Oer, okay then I can use use ln to link that to tmp then?
[14:53] <CkhiKuzad> ext s3r3n1t7_
[14:53] <CkhiKuzad> ext3**
[14:54] <ohir> ader10: do you use any firewalling on that box? If so you need to unblock ssh (port22) connections
[14:54] <thewanderer1> glaucous, you can... I just always mount tmpfs over /tmp without linking - works for me
[14:54] <sveinerik> Hey, I need some help. In front of me I have one Mint 9 disc and one PCLOS 2010 disc. Anyone have any say as to which one I should go for? Switching over from Windows (completely). And I know, I should've got Ubuntu, but don't have time to DL now. So, any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Either here in the chat, or PM me, thanks :)
[14:54] <glaucous> thewanderer1, but when using size=64m, will it instantly use 64m RAM, or grow like /dev/shm?
[14:54] <thewanderer1> glaucous, it is max size, you don't have to specify size=  actually
[14:54] <ader10> ohir: No firewalls (I'm using port 43210)
[14:55] <Oer> glaucous, i think so yes, but there is more, firefox cache and so on
[14:55] <ader10> Interesting
[14:55] <glaucous> thewanderer1, but it's still dynamic?
[14:55] <thewanderer1> yup
[14:55] <trojan_spike> PCLOS>>
[14:55] <trojan_spike> ??
[14:55] <glaucous> Oer, aight, I'll have to look around for everything that uses cache. Did the same on Windows
[14:55] <sveinerik> PcLinuxOs 2010, that is
[14:55] <ader10> when I ping <IP_ADDRESS> it says "from <IP_ADDRESS> icmp_seq=2 destination host unreachable"
[14:55] <glaucous> thewanderer1, Oer, thank you both. Now I have to walk the dog. :)
[14:55] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, i can't find a utility like xfsdump for ext3 in a second, but in my opinion a dump of your FS is the safest way to go, especially if you have another linux based OS. They are usually able to restore those kind of backups with more ease.
[14:56] <trojan_spike> never used it,, but i used mint 9 and didnt like it,, fluxbox..
[14:56] <bandeira> is it possible mounting a server using ubuntu desktop version? my interests are printing and file sharing and also a counter-strike's server.
[14:56] <ohir> ader10: from that second linux box you should do ssh -v you@yourbuntu
[14:56] <ohir> ader10: it will show you more about why it can not connect
[14:56] <CkhiKuzad> ok. to anyone in the channel. how do i do a safe dump of my hard drive in case stuff goes FUBAR?
[14:56] <sveinerik> trojan_spike: fluxbox?
[14:57] <cablop> how can i enable acl in ubuntu?
[14:57] <ader10> ls
[14:57] <ader10> oops
[14:57] <ader10> facepalm.jpg
[14:57] <ohir> CkhiKuzad: man dd for diskdump utility
[14:57] <thewanderer1> CkhiKuzad, dd
[14:57] <cablop> i was reading to add an acl parameter in fstab, but it's not workinhg, i have to manually remount partitions to enable the acl
[14:57] <CkhiKuzad> \o/
[14:58] <thewanderer1> cablop, did you reboot to see if it actually mounts it with acl option?
[14:58] <cablop> i trid, and it didn't
[14:58] <trojan_spike> yea..
[14:58] <sipior> CkhiKuzad: check out partimage. it was designed for precisely that task.
[14:58] <abhijit> doug73, which version of ubuntu?
[14:58] <thewanderer1> cablop, then your kernel is weird
[14:58] <andrzej> need some help with desktop and awn, pm plz
[14:59] <CkhiKuzad> thank you sipior. something i understand. dd is something that could blam up my hard drive.
[14:59] <doug73> abhijit sorry for my bad english
[14:59] <ader10> http://pastebin.com/L7XSiV8q
[14:59] <doug73> abhijit i am using 10.04 lucid lynx
[14:59] <daedaluz> where's /boot/menu.lst?!
[14:59] <CkhiKuzad> !ask | andrzej
[15:00] <thewanderer1> ader10, it's exactly what it says
[15:00] <abhijit> doug73, first of all as suggested by seba-- in #chemistry try a software called chemdraw. also you can serch for available software in applications=>ubuntu software center
[15:00] <ader10> ah, good
[15:00] <daedaluz> /boot/grub/menu.lst is not there. how am I supposed to edit boot options in this distro?
[15:00] <abhijit> !grub2 | daedaluz
[15:00] <cablop> thewanderer1: or maybe i don't know how to put the acl in the fstab, do you know how? i was exhausted to look here and there in google with no much luck
[15:00] <ader10> I forgot to chmod 600
[15:00] <ader10> but now, what is wrong with putty
[15:00] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, dd won't blame it up, but it also copies the empty space. What my google search did find is that a LVM can always make a safe and hot snapshot/copy of whatever filesystem you are using. Would it be an idea to use that?
[15:01] <ohir> CkhiKuzad: /4
[15:01] <ohir> oops
[15:01] <doug73> i am looking for a chemistry program to draw chemical structures, this program should be compartible with the Iisis Draw format. the strutures should be imported and exported to isis draw.
[15:01] <ohir> ader10: so you could connect from other linux?
[15:01] <daedalus96> hey all
[15:01] <ader10> ohir: yes
[15:01] <thewanderer1> cablop, put it in OPTIONS column
[15:02] <larryAmen> 除了linuxqq之外，有其它好用的qq客户端没？
[15:02] <mick_> Afternoon folks, just a quick question if anyone can help me ... I'm in work and I have a desktop running Ubuntu 10.04. I want to be able to connect the USB wireless to our wireless router so I can access the internet without going through the firewall and I want all LAN related traffic to go through the ethernet card. Is this possible to set up in Ubuntu?
[15:02] <CkhiKuzad> s3r3n1t7_, i said blam to censor myself. it meant a word that starts with f that would probably get me kickbanned from this channel for about 5 minutes.
[15:02] <ader10> Aha! I can connect from putty now and I didn't change anything
[15:02] <doug73> abhijit i know that there are many programs for this, but my problem is i dont know wich program is compartible to isis draw
[15:02] <ohir> ader10: so follow putty path: 1) add key to pageant 2) set Connection->data->Auto-login to your username
[15:02] <daedalus96> i am having issues connecting to my wireless network, when i use iwlist scan, it does not show my network...
[15:02] <ader10> ohir: thewanderer1 thank you both
[15:02] <ader10> I'm not sure what I changed but it works :D
[15:02] <ohir> ader10: np :)
[15:02] <daedalus96> except that i am connected on my laptop...
[15:02] <daedalus96> in the same room
[15:03] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, Ok. And the idea that i gave you?
[15:03] <ohir> !cn larryAmen
[15:03] <ohir> !cn | larryAmen
[15:03] <abhijit> doug73, you search for the term 'isis' in software center there is python module for it. also you can know if any software is compatible with it or not by going on their website, contacting mailing list etc
[15:03] <CkhiKuzad> s3r3n1t7_, i think i will use partimage.
[15:04] <daedalus96> ?
[15:04] <ader10> Now, what's an intimidating issue.net
[15:04] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, I've read stories about it. For some it works, for some it doesn't. I think the main issue will be the ability to create a hot copy or not, which is rather vague for it.
[15:04] <CkhiKuzad> well of course i am likely one of the some that it wont work.
[15:04] <doug73> abhijit yes right, but these are always theretical information, i am looking for someone who tried these programs...
[15:05] <abhijit> doug73, have a look in ##chemistry they are replying to you
[15:05] <jmkgreen> What's the magic needed to disable IPv6 under 10.04?
[15:05] <daedalus96> hello?
[15:05] <sipior> doug73: windows folks were no help, then?
[15:06] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, you can always try and i'm not saying you shouldn't. By all means, give it a shot. Do you have the system installed, i presume so?
[15:06] <jfarhad_> i need to change linux box to hide login prompt to user and instead of it show my simple gui program
[15:06] <cablop> thewanderer1: that was the problem i had it like ext3,acl defaults, i think it's where defaults is... but... now i don't know what to place instead defaults
[15:06] <jfarhad_> can anyone help me?
[15:06] <ohir> doug73: someone on relevant forums and channels likely tried or even still use such apps
[15:06] <CkhiKuzad> s3r3n1t7_, i have 9.04 and debian lenny installed. i havent upgraded yet.
[15:07] <thewanderer1> cablop, next to defaults like this:  ext3     defaults,acl
[15:07] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, in fact, and i quote "Filesystem being backedup must be unmounted and inaccessible to other programs. ". Do you want to create a backup of the system while running or are you ok with having to boot debian to make a backup?
[15:07] <thewanderer1> cablop, be sure to read `man fstab` too, voodoo is not a good method
[15:07] <jfarhad_> Any expert at login process here?
[15:08] <sipior> jfarhad_: easier if you just state your question directly :-)
[15:08] <CkhiKuzad> s3r3n1t7_, i want to do it while i am in ubuntu. i plan to upgrade to 9.10 today, then 10.04 tonight between 11 and 3.
[15:08] <jfarhad_> ok
[15:08] <doug73> ohir i am already searching for some hints, but it seems as if there is no practical solution :-(
[15:08] <jfarhad_> i need to change linux box to hide login prompt to user and instead of it show my simple gui program
[15:08] <ohir> doug73: start your own solution :-)
[15:09] <cablop> thewanderer1: i know, i'm not voodooing, i just a little rusted, i used fstab but years ago, now i'm getting a headache just trying to remember how to... well, what i want is how to know what is the defaults options
[15:09] <cablop> how can i know what options are defaults in fstab?
[15:09] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, according to the partimage site it's not going to be much use. You can't switch the FS type either, nor use an LVM with it. Hmm ... tricky situation.
[15:09] <thewanderer1> cablop, defaults are undefined, I never put them there... manpage might tell you that
[15:09] <daedalus96> i am having issues connecting to my wireless network, when i use iwlist scan, it does not show my network...
[15:09] <thewanderer1> cablop, if in doubt, exclude defaults
[15:09] <trojan_spike> is there a way to pre-configure a new basic user desktop??
[15:09] <ohir> doug73: all open source software exists just because someone was in need and someone knew whats the "best" solution is
[15:09] <NightKhaos> I'm having trouble with connecting to a shared printer on Windows 7 from Ubuntu. I am continiously prompted for authentrication.
[15:09] <CkhiKuzad> cablop, is voodooing doing stuff that is unknown to a lot of people on the IRC while you have an understanding of it, and you still come and ask for some help?
[15:10] <ohir> doug73: though its for #ubuntu-offtopic chan
[15:10] <CkhiKuzad> if so, then i do that a lot
[15:10] <thewanderer1> trojan_spike, see /etc/skel - files put in there get copied to user $HOME on user creation
[15:10] <NightKhaos> Anyone know how to reslove this issue? Thanks.
[15:10] <ohir> doug73: so look there. This is distro support channel
[15:10] <hemza> where i can find full doc about GDM themes???
[15:10] <andrzej> is there a way to delete the bar thats at the bottom of the screen and move the upper one to the bottom??
[15:10] <DrPoO> I want to check on which device a particular directory is mounted to... how can I do this?
[15:10] <CkhiKuzad> s3r3n1t7_, i could use my backup program i have already. i just need to know how to backup my stuff back into my system from a different OS
[15:10] <Nwbi1knbi> Hello, I need to format and do a clean install of the ubuntu. Is there any way i could save all my custom configured files? I know it asks you if you want to replace them with new ones or not on a upgrade, but this is manual.  Halp!
[15:10] <econdudeawesome> Hey, what is a good place to look to see dependencies for, say, openbox and chromium web browser? I am installing ubuntu minimal on a box that requires a log-in via browser (i don't know any other way to authenticate with the network)
[15:11] <sipior> jfarhad_: do you mean console logins?
[15:11] <CkhiKuzad> econdudeawesome, chromium is already google chrome now. you can install it from google.
[15:11] <wad> Wait... what happened to grub.lst? Where do I make changes to my grub menu now?
[15:11] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, what backup program is it? Does it create a file? Then i suppose you could mount your debian FS, copy it onto there, so when something goes wrong you boot that up and restore it.
[15:11] <cablop> CkhiKuzad: well, then i'm not voodooing
[15:11] <econdudeawesome> ClhiKuzad thanks, but that's not the question I was asking
 ya
[15:11] <doug73> ohir yes i know that there are off topic channels, but there you wont get real help. sorry that i bother you with this question. i didnt know that is not allowed to ask these kinds of questions here. i am sorry.
[15:12] <karlo> anybody know link where I can download driver GIGABYTE GV-R925128 (graphical driver) ?
[15:12] <CkhiKuzad> s3r3n1t7_, its simple backup. it creates a .gz file when it does its backups
[15:12] <yangzhe> s?
[15:12] <CkhiKuzad> they are kept in a backup directory that i can easily copy to my second partition
[15:12] <sipior> jfarhad_: you can modify the getty entries in /etc/init/tty[1-6], and use the -l switch to getty to specify that your own login program be invoked instead of /bin/login.
[15:13] <karlo> anybody know link where I can download driver GIGABYTE GV-R925128 (graphical driver) ?
[15:13] <CkhiKuzad> in reality, i am just being incredibly paranoid. but my CD drive is burnt out, so i cant live reinstall, i can unetbootin reinstall, but that requires more upgrades to get where i was, then restoring my backups
[15:13] <CkhiKuzad> DONT MENTION USB BOOT TO ME.
[15:13] <CkhiKuzad> ^^
[15:14] <jfarhad_> is this approach secure?
[15:14] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, no caps please
[15:14] <Nwbi1knbi> Hello, I need to format and do a clean install of the ubuntu. Is there any way i could save all my custom configured files? I know it asks you if you want to replace them with new ones or not on a upgrade, but this is manual.  Halp!
[15:14] <CkhiKuzad> sorry s3r3n1t7_, used them to make an intense point. not shouting
[15:14] <sipior> jfarhad_: that would obviously depend on the quality of the program you replace /bin/login with.
[15:14] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, you can use unetbootin to create an installer for the latest update, create a package snapshot for what you have now and reinstall every package when you're done.
[15:14] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, using caps on IRC is considered to be shouting.
[15:15] <alexisr> hello anyone have some experience whit dojo/dijit javascript framework and ZF ?
[15:15] <trojan_spike> Nwbi1knbi, would u be best doing a back-up?
[15:15] <s3r3n1t7_> alexisr, why not ask and find out?
[15:15] <CkhiKuzad> i know that s3r3n1t7_, i've read the jargon file.
[15:15] <alexisr> :(
[15:15] <Nwbi1knbi> trojan_spike, why backup if i want a clean install
[15:15] <CkhiKuzad> i need to get a unetbootin update then. its still back in the 6. stuff.
[15:15] <ryan_languagelab> hi there! is anyone using emacs on a laptop with ubuntu installed?
[15:15] <trojan_spike> jus askin,, sorry
[15:15] <BluesKaj> Nwbi1knbi, run the live cd and install withou formatting , some of the non default apps will be missing , but their config files will still be saved , so when you reinstall the apps the previous settings will be retained
[15:16] <ryan_languagelab> emacs does not seem to respect configuration changes made with syndaemon
[15:16] <cc_alex> hello
[15:16] <jfarhad_> my program has some action button for restart system and some services
[15:16] <Nwbi1knbi> BluesKaj, i;m not interested in that, i need to format'
[15:16] <Nwbi1knbi> and repartition
[15:16] <BluesKaj> why format ?
[15:16] <Nwbi1knbi> need to make a dualboot'
[15:16] <Nwbi1knbi> with win 7
[15:16] <Nwbi1knbi> have to play games
[15:17] <{C}ronos> hi, mi resolution was fine at install and when i created a new user it is now to low and wont let me change it.
[15:17] <jfarhad_> can every body kill my process with shortkey or somethings else so can go inside my box
[15:17] <red> Anyone know of a way to hide the GTK+ window top bar (the one with the max, min, close, app name, file, edit etc) for a individual application?
[15:17] <red> The new firefox would look much slicker without it :)
[15:18] <BluesKaj> Nwbi1knbi, in that case  when you reinstall , make a / and a /home partition on ubuntu to save your data in /home
[15:18] <sipior> red: i had heard that that change is in the works for a future release, but know little more about it
[15:18] <skumara> how do i find out what are the hardware connected to my usb? any device centre?
[15:18] <jfarhad_> sipior: can every body kill my process with shortkey or somethings else so can go inside my box
[15:18] <thewanderer1> skumara, lsusb
[15:19] <ader10> Well, this sucks! I can only ssh into my computer by using my hostname on a local network, not an IP over the internet
[15:19] <ader10> and the whole reason I'm using ssh is for the internet
[15:19] <Nwbi1knbi> BluesKaj, but i'll delete all partitions
[15:19] <ikonia> ader10: what ip are you trying to use
[15:19] <thewanderer1> jfarhad_, if anyone goes near your keyboard, they can kill your system
[15:19] <ader10> <IP_ADDRESS>
[15:19] <Maddeth> ader10: you can, you need to configure port forwarding through your router
[15:19] <ikonia> ader10: it's probably nothing to do with your ssh setting, more ilkey to do with networking
[15:19] <sipior> jfarhad_: unlikely, but depends on how it is written. do some reading about the pluggable authentication modules (PAM), and make use of them in your work.
[15:19] <ikonia> ader10: is this a home broadband/cable connection
[15:19] <Sacho> ader10: Then set up your networking properly.
[15:19] <ader10> ikonia: yes
[15:20] <ikonia> ader10: ok, the odds are you've not setup port forwarding properly
[15:20] <ikonia> ader10: you know ssh is working, so the issue must be between internal/external IP forwarding
[15:20] <ader10> Sacho: I've forwarded the port I'm using to the computer hosting ssh
[15:20] <BluesKaj> Nwbi1knbi, I mean when you reinstall , that way you will save your data the next time
[15:20] <CkhiKuzad> ok... well my entire idea became simplified now. how do i run the unetbootin binary i just downloaded?
[15:20] <Nwbi1knbi> BluesKaj, there must be a way, because when ubuntu upgrades to a new version, it just know what files I've changed. And i';m talking about system configured files, not configured applications, in that case a backup would been just fine.
[15:20] <ikonia> ader10: you're currently using vista ?
[15:20] <Nwbi1knbi> oh
[15:20] <ader10> no
[15:20] <jfarhad_> sipior: thanks, I go test it
[15:20] <CkhiKuzad> its just a binary file. i know i need to use chmod
[15:21] <ader10> For <IP_ADDRESS>: Destination Ports 43210 TCP Any -> 43210
[15:21] <Maddeth> ader10: does your external IP change iften?
[15:21] <ikonia> ader10: your client responds as vista
[15:21] <ader10> Maddeth: Yes, I use a dynamic dns service
[15:21] <ader10> ikonia: I set it up to do that
[15:21] <Maddeth> ader10: Ah ok
[15:21] <ikonia> ader10: can you please show me the output of uname -a please
[15:22] <ader10> on the server?
[15:22] <ikonia> whatever box you're using
[15:23] <ader10> one client is Windows 7, the server is Ubuntu 10.04 (2.6.32-23-generic)
[15:23] <thewanderer1> ader10, are you behind NAT?
[15:23] <ader10> Yes
[15:23] <ikonia> ader10: can you paste the full line please
[15:24] <ader10> Linux ader10-srv 2.6.32-23-generic #37-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jun 11 08:03:28 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[15:24] <thewanderer1> ader10, have you setup port forwarding?
[15:24] <ader10> Yes
[15:24] <ikonia> ader10: either way, this isn't an ubuntu issue, as you know ssh is working on your lan
[15:24] <thewanderer1> ader10, have you actually verified that it works?
[15:24] <ikonia> ader10: so the problem is between your public ip/forward to your private lan
[15:25] <ader10> thewanderer1: Yes, I use it all the time for other things
[15:25] <thewanderer1> ader10, try ping.eu and see if it can get to your open port
[15:25] <ader10> and I have used it for ssh in the past
[15:25] <CkhiKuzad> well, i have just had my longest annoying problem solved.
[15:25] <CkhiKuzad> thank you whoever recommended unetbootin.
[15:25] <ikonia> ader10: I've just probed that ip and it's not listening on anything, meaning it's not forwarding to anthing most likley
[15:26] <ader10> Hm, my ssh port is closed but my router says it's open
[15:26] <andrzej> Hey, how can i move my hard drives to be shown on AWN not on the desktop ?? or maybe hide them somehow
[15:26] <CkhiKuzad> s3r3n1t7_, thanks for recommending unetbootin. i am downloading the 10.04 live. (not the x64)
[15:26] <CkhiKuzad> timeto/quit
[15:26] <econdudeawesome> Hey, what is a good place to look to see dependencies for, say, openbox and chromium web browser? I am installing ubuntu minimal on a box that requires a log-in via browser (i don't know any other way to authenticate with the network)
[15:26] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, good luck! Remember to keep an eye for the FS and/or LVM.
[15:26] <econdudeawesome> Or is there an all-inclusive way to install elinks on top of ubuntu minimal?
[15:26] <thewanderer1> econdudeawesome, apt-get install elinks
[15:27] <CkhiKuzad> s3r3n1t7_ i can install 10.04 on my second partition, and then copy my home over
[15:27] <CkhiKuzad> anyway.
[15:27] <econdudeawesome> thewanderer1 that would require me to have authenticated with the network--which I can't do right off unless I have a browser, so I have to have the packages handy
[15:27] <ikonia> ader10: it doesn't look like it's forwarding
[15:27] <thewanderer1> ader10, do you have a firewall on Ubuntu?
[15:27] <s3r3n1t7_> CkhiKuzad, yes you can. However, for creating a hot snapshot you would either want an LVM or an FS which can create a hot snapshot.
[15:27] <ader10> thewanderer1: Not that I'm aware of
[15:27] <ader10> I didn't install ufw or anything
[15:27] <thewanderer1> econdudeawesome, you might have w3m installed
[15:27] <thewanderer1> ader10, pastebin me `iptables -L`
[15:27] <CkhiKuzad> yes i would s3r3n1t7_
[15:28] <thewanderer1> ader10, and `netstat -tl`
[15:28] <econdudeawesome> thewanderer1 is that a browser similar to elinks?
[15:28] <thewanderer1> econdudeawesome, somewhat
[15:28] <econdudeawesome> thewanderer1 does it handle cookies?
[15:29] <thewanderer1> econdudeawesome, yup
[15:29] <ader10> thewanderer1: http://pastebin.com/eRmZyRuz
[15:29] <thewanderer1> econdudeawesome, failing that, if you have no other option there's always netcat and the HTTP protocol
[15:29] <hawkI> !jdk
[15:29] <ader10> thewanderer1: oops I mistyped it, it's http://pastebin.com/eRmZYRuz
[15:30] <hawkI> !JDK
[15:30] <econdudeawesome> thewanderer1 Can you give me some idea as to how that would work?
[15:30] <ader10> 43210 is my ssh port
[15:30] <ProjektGhost> Does anyone know how to overclock CPU in Lucid (preferably through a GUI program)?  Intel atom 230
[15:30] <thewanderer1> econdudeawesome, what exactly? HTTP? see the protocol RFC
[15:30] <econdudeawesome> netcat specficially--im not familiar with the command
[15:30] <hawkI> ProjektGhost: CPU overclocking is typically done by altering jumper configs on the MB or by altering certain settings in the CMOS.
[15:31] <thewanderer1> econdudeawesome, netcat [HOST] [PORT] and there you go
[15:31] <thewanderer1> econdudeawesome, I hope you have elinks there
[15:31] <thewanderer1> econdudeawesome, or links at least
[15:31] <hawkI> Anyone know how to install the JDK on Ubuntu?
[15:31] <thewanderer1> econdudeawesome, if not then you're better off copying the deb to there and installing some browser
[15:31] <robotgunslinger> WLAN DRIVER PROBLEM: i have a belkin usb wifi stick with a "RTL8187B" chip, it works under ubuntu, but it uses the "RTL8187" driver instead of the B one and only does 11 M/s instead of 54 M/s. I tried installing the correct driver using ndiswrapper, and the driver installed fine, but says that the Hardware is not present. how do I fix this? thx
[15:31] <thewanderer1> ader10, it's your router
[15:31] <econdudeawesome> thewanderer1 elinks would be sufficient, but I dont think it comes with ubuntu minimal install :-D
[15:32] <otswim> hi, i'm running a kubuntu live usb stick; and i'm trying to mount an external hdd to backup my files but i don't know how, i've tried almost every /dev/sdXY with X from a to c and Y from nothing to 3
[15:32] <edbian> otswim, Don't just guess!  Take a look at the output of sudo fdisk -l
[15:32] <slinker1> ProjektGhost: tried apt-get install eee-control ?
[15:32] <thewanderer1> econdudeawesome, you have to get any browser on your system, I don't think you'd feel comfortable with writing HTTP requests by hand
[15:33] <econdudeawesome> thewanderer1 it would be an experience, for sure
[15:33] <edbian> otswim, What folder are you trying to mount them into?
[15:33] <otswim> edbian: a freshly created one (/mnt/hdd)
[15:33] <ProjektGhost> slinker1: Would that work even if I'm not an eee PC?  I've seen that, though.
[15:33] <edbian> otswim, Lookin' good.
[15:33] <edbian> otswim, Did sudo fdisk -l help?
[15:33] <slinker1> ProjektGhost: hmm possibly what nettop you on?
[15:34] <ProjektGhost> Acer Revo 1600
[15:34] <otswim> i think i don't see my external disk in the output of fdisk -l
[15:35] <edbian> otswim, That's probably why you can't mount it.  Are you sure it's connected?  Does it have lights and such?
[15:36] <edbian> otswim, How is it connected? USB?
[15:36] <otswim> edbian: it has a green light; when i plug it on a windows computer, it's detected every 10 times
[15:36] <otswim> usb, yes
[15:36] <edbian> otswim, It's connected every 10 times?
[15:36] <ikonia> otswim: if you look in /var/log/syslog you'll probably see the usb bus resetting
[15:38] <tius1234> 안녕하세요. IRC 에서 한글 사용 가능하죠? ^^
[15:38] <ader10> O_o, all my ports have been closed somehow from the outside even though my router says they're open
[15:38] <tius1234> 한국분들 계시면 질문이 하나 있습니다.
[15:38] <thewanderer1> ader10, it's your ISP maybe?
[15:38] <thewanderer1> ask them
[15:38] <ader10> Most likely, but they've never done this before :(
[15:38] <ader10> Thank you for the help
[15:38] <otswim> edbian: right, a lot of EXT2-fs errors
[15:39] <tius1234> ubuntu termianl 에서, anti-idle 을 설정할 수 있나요? 특정 서버로 telnet 접속 했을때, 접속 끊김 방지 하는 방법이요...
[15:39] <otswim> edbian: on windows it works only if i plug it and unplug it a lot
[15:39] <edbian> otswim, Then I suggest you do that.  have a look at the end of dmesg.  It should change everytime you plug/unplug it.
[15:39] <edbian> otswim, You should probably re-format it...
[15:40] <otswim> i'm used to a french keyboard, how do you do the pipe | on a qwerty one?
[15:40] <hylian> man i love ubuntu. this machine boots almost 30 seconds faster than windows does.
[15:40] <edbian> otswim, shift + button above enter
[15:40] <edbian> hylian, Great isn't it?
[15:41] <cool> hello or или привет
[15:41] <tensorpudding> hello
[15:41] <Lizzard88> Q: I have installed the adobe flash player plugin for firefox, but i still get the message that I need additional plugins
[15:41] <otswim> edbian: button above enter is backspace :p
[15:42] <Lizzard88> when trying to watch videos online (youtube)
[15:42] <cool> oh who is speak russian?
[15:42] <thewanderer1> otswim, no, button above RETURN is backspace
[15:42] <tensorpudding> !ru | cool
[15:42] <edbian> otswim, it's the backslash key.  I'm not sure where it is on your specific keyboard then.
[15:42] <Sary> Sary: Hello Ubuntu & Welcome newcomers
[15:42] <Shoruken> Hi, just had someone hack into my laptop. Where could I check a log to see the IP he logged in from?
[15:42] <otswim> oh, found it
[15:42] <otswim> thewanderer1: i don't have enter then :)
[15:42] <thewanderer1> otswim, neither do I
[15:42] <terry> Lizzard88: Which flash player did you install?
[15:42] <thewanderer1> it doesn't exist :P
[15:42] <cool> ok ubotty
[15:42] <Lizzard88> adobe
[15:43] <terry> Lizzard88: 32bit ?  or 64bit?
[15:43] <Lizzard88> hmm
[15:43] <tensorpudding> Shoruken: how do you know you were hacked if you didn't see the log?
[15:43] <otswim> edbian: it worked now after i plugged it/unplugged it
[15:43] <edbian> Shoruken, /var/log/auth.log
[15:43] <otswim> or vice versa :p
[15:43] <edbian> otswim, Great! :)
[15:43] <otswim> but i can't fix it for further use?
[15:44] <tensorpudding>  /var/log/auth.log has all login information in it
[15:44] <Lizzard88> not sure, I used firefox's plugin finder service
[15:44] <Shoruken> tensorpudding, actually I'm sitting here using my desktop, my laptop is in power saving mode screen is off. all the sudden it flickers on, mouse cursor is moving, he basically took control of my desktop
[15:44] <Lizzard88> it didn't specify
[15:44] <tensorpudding> but if you were truly hacked, it's conceivable the hacker modified that file
[15:44] <edbian> otswim, Like I said.  Try re-formatting.
[15:44] <Shoruken> firefox changed tabs, loaded a new website without me controlling it
[15:44] <otswim> edbian, ok thanks :)
[15:44] <terry> Lizzard88: Did you install 32bit Ubuntu or 64bit Ubuntu?
[15:44] <Lizzard88> 32
[15:44] <edbian> Shoruken, What makes you think you were hacked??
[15:44] <cool> in russian irc cnannel people don't speak =(
[15:44] <Shoruken> i killed internet immediately and change my user and root passwords
[15:45] <tensorpudding> It sounds like you enabled remote desktop
[15:45] <terry> Lizzard88: Ok then you have all 32bit applications.
[15:45] <Lizzard88> right
[15:45] <ubuntu> My ubuntu10.04 can't log in, who can help me?
[15:45] <tensorpudding> or ssh
[15:45] <terry> Lizzard88: So the flash player plubin crashes on you?  When? How?
[15:45] <Shoruken> tensorpudding, i checked for ssh i have no daemon running on this computer, where could i see remote desktop?
[15:45] <terry__> Why is the red exclamatory mark in my right hand corner telling yhat the update information is outdated?
[15:46] <tensorpudding> Shoruken: if you didn't install ssh it can't be running.
[15:46] <tensorpudding> Remote Desktop is under System -> Preferences
[15:46] <edbian> terry__, Just click the update button :)
[15:46] <terry__> It s showing erroe!!
[15:46] <ubuntu> exit
[15:46] <terry__> error
[15:47] <Lizzard88> terry: youtube videos won't play, and firefox still says i need additional plugins
[15:47] <terry> !flash > Lizzard88
[15:47] <bihari> y0
[15:47] <Sary> terry: It's possible that your package manager program is having some internal conflicts
[15:47] <lion_> php
[15:47] <terry__> What to do?
[15:47] <Sary> terry: Try these commands in the Terminal window
[15:47] <Shoruken> tensorpudding, remote desktop is not enabled
[15:47] <Sary> terry:  sudo apt-get update
[15:47] <Shoruken> and i don't have sshd active
[15:47] <astra-x> so i am getting errors reading my root "/" ext4 file system, not /home ext4 , not swap, not /boot ext3 is full, and when I "ls -alh" /, it says directories are only 4KB
[15:48] <Shoruken> how can i figure out how he commandeered my laptop?
[15:48] <Sary> terry:  sudo apt-get -f install
[15:48] <astra-x> to say only / is reporting incorrectly
[15:48] <Sary> terry: sudo apt-get autoremove
[15:48] <terry__>  Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[15:48] <Shoruken> tensorpudding, is there a place in my logs that show remote logins?
[15:48] <Sary> terry: The first one updates your software package list, the second tries to fix possibly broken packages, the last one will try to clean the system of unneeded packages.
[15:49] <v2sun> Who can help me log in my 10.04 ,every friend?
[15:49] <tensorpudding>  /var/auth.log has all of the information about logins
[15:49] <Lizzard88> terry: "flashplugin-installer is already the newest version"
[15:49] <Sary> And finally, these will try to reconfigure your software packages: sudo dpkg --configure --pending , then sudo dpkg --configure -a
[15:49] <JJnew> hi can anyone tell me how i stop my wireless connection disconnection and then me having to reboot my linux lucid maching to reconnet as it is getting rather irritating now rebooting all  the i time  ihave the latest drivers and gui for the connectio but still same prob ne help her would be great
[15:50] <jose__> fairlosue

[15:51] <v2sun> /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off......Can anyone solve this?
[15:51] <terry__> Now?
[15:51] <FloodBot3> terry__: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:51] <Sary> terry: now try the update
[15:51] <ader10> I found the problem to my router issues!
[15:51] <thewanderer1> ader10, I somehow suspected that
[15:51] <Guest57863> I get an error while printing, what can I do about it?
[15:52] <thewanderer1> ader10, run Linux on your router and save yourself the trouble ^_^
[15:52] <JJnew> erm lemm reword that lol
[15:52] <ader10> For some /stupid/ reason, ubuntu used "auto eth0" instead of the other configuration I set up
[15:52] <terry__> Can I pm u Sary?
[15:52] <ader10> Why doesn't it automatically connect to the other configuration
[15:52] <Sary> terry: Sure
[15:52] <terry> Lizzard88: How long ago did you install the flash-player plugin?
[15:53] <ader10> It even has "connect automatically" checked
[15:53] <JJnew> im using linux lucid i updated the wireless drivers for my wifi network card i added a gui applet to control it and now it stays connected for about 20 mins ------ then it disconnects from the internet and wont reconnect unless i reboot the machine do you have any idea on what could be causing this or how i would fix it ?
[15:54] <ader10> How can I get it to use my server configuration instead?
[15:54] <ader10> stupid kde
[15:54] <ader10> gnome never did this
[15:54] <terry> Lizzard88: find /usr/lib/ -name libflashplayer.so -type f
[15:55] <ader10> Now all my ports are open
[15:55] <revarr> well I've tried everything guess XUbuntu will just stay on my computer with max brightness all the time
[15:55] <revarr> it was a good run
[15:56] <ader10> I also hate that I can't run kate from sudo -i
[15:57] <DivineBrevity> Hi. I have an Acer Aspire 4730z and was looking for a driver for the bluetooth. It's not showing up in the device manager.
[15:58] <kb9cmw> how do I use the bin file downloaded for google earth ?
[15:58] <JJnew> put it in usr/bin
[15:58] <kb9cmw> thanks

[15:59] <iceroot> ader10: or learn to use vim :)
[15:59] <progre55> hey guys, how to copy a whole directory using root privilages, but so that the copy preserves all the file permissions?
[15:59] <ader10> I can use vim, sometimes using a gui is quicker though
[15:59] <ader10> and why would I use kdesu inside a root prompt
[15:59] <ader10> :P
[15:59] <progre55> when I just copy it using "sudo cp -r ... " all the files belong to "root root"
[16:00] <iceroot> progre55: -a  was it imo
[16:00] <progre55> iceroot: thanks, I'll try that now
[16:00] <maco> progre55: because you used "sudo"
[16:00] <iceroot> ader10: why use a root-prompt and why use kate is the other question
[16:00] <maco> progre55: if you want to preserve ownership, use "sudo cp -pr"
[16:00] <Stameni> .ns identify nada204
[16:00] <hpjohnson> Hi, i am having a problem with my desktop. when i right click on it, it wont show the menu. niether is it showing the icons, what should i do?
[16:00] <Stameni> o god no
[16:01] <progre55> iceroot: yeah, it was -a. thanks
[16:01] <ader10> iceroot: because I am in kde and because I hate typing the root password over and over when the 5 minutes is usually spent researching syntax
[16:01] <edbian> hpjohnson, nautilus has crashed.  Restart it with "nautilus&"
[16:01] <KB1JWQ> Stameni: Time to change your password.
[16:01] <ader10> might as well just sudo -i until I finish and then exit
[16:01] <Stameni> jesus
[16:01] <glaucous> thewanderer1, Oer, does the RAM disk dynamically SHRINK as well? Some programs for Windows did support dynamically expand as you added files, but when you removed them the RAM disk did not shrink back.
[16:01] <Stameni> :)
[16:01] <Stameni> hahahaha
[16:01] <doktoreas> Hello everybody, anyone got an idea of this font issue with ff  http://dl.dropbox.com/u/348430/google.png ?
[16:01] <thewanderer1> glaucous, I believe it does
[16:01] <Stameni> KB1JWQ
[16:02] <Stameni> how i do that ?
[16:02] <Misterio> Stameni: /msg nickserv help set password
[16:02] <glaucous> thewanderer1, great. And how do I check how much memory it is currently using (except checking the size of the disk). Since the system monitor does notice when RAM disk increases.
[16:02] <edbian> glaucous, free
[16:02] <edbian> glaucous, free -m
[16:03] <thewanderer1> glaucous, I don't know any other way besides df -h
[16:03] <Stameni> thank you
[16:03] <plushy> hello everyone
[16:04] <glaucous> edbian, okay to be clear.. -/+ buffer/cache is WITHOUT the RAM disk?
[16:04] <glaucous> edbian, since the numbers above are the same as system monitor
[16:04] <plushy> I messed up something in my ubuntu and now it won't log in, can anyone help me?
[16:05] <hpjohnson> Will anyone respond?
[16:05] <terry> hpjohnson: To what?
[16:05] <progre55> how to create a group on a terminal?
[16:05] <edbian> glaucous, Oh, I'm looking more deeply into it and I think I don't understand everything here as fully as I thought.
[16:05] <progre55> addgroup?
 Hi, i am having a problem with my desktop. when i right click on it, it wont show the menu. niether is it showing the icons, what should i do?
[16:05] <orschiro> hello guys, does anyone of you know when the presentation/compiz bug in openoffice will be fixed?
[16:06] <orschiro> the bug where the panel is still visible during presentation (ubuntu 10.04)
[16:06] <edbian> glaucous, My ram disk right now (tmpfs under df -h) is 0% used.  My ram is 898Mb (of 1GB) used.
[16:06] <terry> progre55: groupadd
[16:06] <progre55> terry: thanks
[16:06] <glaucous> edbian, okay
[16:06] <austin> hi
[16:07] <austin> every one
[16:07] <edbian> glaucous, yeah.  I don't think BTW that the ram disk can change in size.  I could be wrong.  What are you running that is even using the ram disk??
[16:07] <ILoveTsundere> Hey all you people
[16:07] <ILoveTsundere> Hey all you people
[16:07] <ILoveTsundere> Wont you listen to meee
[16:07] <ILoveTsundere> I just had a patty, no ordinary patty
[16:07] <ILoveTsundere> it was a patty filled with jellyfish jellyyyyyyy
[16:07] <bazhang> ILoveTsundere, got a support question?
[16:08] <ILoveTsundere> ah no...
[16:08] <bazhang> ILoveTsundere, then please chat elsewhere
[16:08] <edbian> ILoveTsundere, Then leave us alone.
[16:08] <coz_> ILoveTsundere,  then please dont chat offtopci
[16:08] <astra-x> Now I am getting a bug where i can only read 74g of each ext4 filesystem
[16:08] <glaucous> edbian, I know that the ramdisks increases in size as you add files to it. "..but as files are copied and created, the tmpfs filesystem driver will allocate more VM and will dynamically increase"
[16:08] <ader10> Is there a way to create a .deb from a previously installed package?
[16:08] <JJnew> im using linux lucid i updated the wireless drivers for my wifi network card i added a gui applet to control it and now it stays connected for about 20 mins ------ then it disconnects from the internet and wont reconnect unless i reboot the machine do you have any idea on what could be causing this or how i would fix it ?
[16:09] <glaucous> thewanderer1, oh, here I got my answer as well. "the tmpfs filesystem driver will dynamically shrink the size of the filesystem and free VM resources"
[16:09] <plushy> bazhang: so this is not a channel to seek help with ubuntu?
[16:09] <edbian> glaucous, Neat.  So you're writing a program that does this?
[16:09] <terry> ader10: There is not one already?
[16:09] <edbian> glaucous, That puts files there I mean?
[16:09] <bazhang> plushy, sure it is. he was not seeking support
[16:09] <econdudeawesome> how do I switch out gdm for lxdm?
[16:09] <econdudeawesome> via commandline
[16:09] <cablop> how can i see the full list of programs accross esktops?
[16:09] <ader10> terry: Are you saying you know of a way?
[16:09] <glaucous> edbian, no not right now. But it's great for temp files, video editing, and loading times for games. And putting whole applications on it.
[16:09] <Lalon> having a problem ader10
[16:09] <edbian> cablop, That are running?
[16:10] <edbian> glaucous, Neat
[16:10] <cablop> no, i mean the other windows opened
[16:10] <edbian> cablop, ps -e ??
[16:10] <cablop> but sometimes i just don't want to move from desktop to desktop to find them
[16:10] <edbian> cablop, Will show all the processes on the system.
[16:10] <cablop> no no, no the process list
[16:10] <glaucous> edbian, used it on Windows, but it was much more limited, and had to use extra softwares. This is really great.
[16:10] <Lalon> my whole screen of ubuntu 10.04 become black and after certain time horizontal lighting comes from my dark screen.. to solve the problem i had to restart my pc
[16:10] <Kwpolska> econdudeawesome: you can try (from tty1) this: killall gdm; lxdm
[16:10] <edbian> glaucous, Awesome! :)
[16:10] <terry> ader10: I'm asking if there is already a .deb for the package you have intalled.  (If one already exists, why re-create it?)
[16:10] <cablop> suppose you open two or three firefox windows but you don't remember in what virtual desktop is each one
[16:11] <plushy> bazhang: oh, so I can continue? goo!
[16:11] <Lalon> is it ubuntu style or a ubuntu problem
[16:11] <Kwpolska> econdudeawesome: note that it will kill X
[16:11] <cablop> and you want to see all desktops applications
[16:11] <edbian> cablop, Look at the preferences of the window list applet
[16:11] <plushy> so the login box shows up, I inpt my pwd and the screen goes black for a while and then gets back to the login screen
[16:11] <ader10> terry: Oh. I created the .deb with checkinstall
[16:12] <ader10> and I removed the .deb that was created and then installed
[16:12] <plushy> anyone knows what may cause this? I was just installing jdk so I though it messed the $PATH but it seems okay
[16:12] <progre55> how to remove a group? =)
[16:12] <cdubya> Does the bug with the battery indicator show up in kubuntu?
[16:12] <cablop> mmmm
[16:12] <startlifes> bonjour y a til quelqu'un de français ?
[16:12] <Archana> Hi, I have a problem . Title bar has vanished from all the windows. :-/
[16:13] <abhijit> how to uninstall an ap from command line?
[16:13] <fedele> I god a strange report from my screensaver. Every time i load it i got this report: starting KTTSD failed. How to solve it? Please help
[16:13] <cablop> frustrated, it can show me the loist of all workspaces always, but i just want to see them when i want to
[16:13] <coz_> Archana,  did you just enable compiz?
[16:13] <edbian> Archana, gnome-panel& in a terminal.  Or restart the machine :)
[16:13] <progre55> terry: how do I remove a group now? =)
[16:13] <terry> ader10: Oh, ok. If that works, fine. But otherwize I think you use dpkg command with the -b or --build option, to, [I guess you'd say] build one from scratch.
[16:14] <fedele> how can i do compiz on in kubuntu>?\
[16:14] <cablop> what i want is, to keep just the buttons of currnet workspace windows, and to be able to see with a popup or something the other workspace windows and which worskpace is each in
[16:14] <progre55> terry: oh, groupdel =)
[16:14] <Archana> edbian, title bar != gnome panel
[16:14] <mattias_> Hi, I installed 10.04 yesterday and it works quite well. The only thing is that while the resolution seems okay, all apps is using huge fonts etc. Anyone knows a fix?
[16:14] <coz_> fedele,   first go into the system settings  Desktop effects and disable that
[16:14] <Archana> coz_, Hi, I all the compiz effects work.
[16:14] <revarr> hmm how do I get my hotkeys for volume to work again with XUbuntu 10.4 on my comp?
[16:14] <fedele> ok
[16:14] <terry> progre55: groupdel
[16:14] <abhijit> Archana, add this line to your startup aps : gtk-window-decorator
[16:14] <edbian> Archana, Then what is the title bar?
[16:15] <Archana> coz_, Title bar was there. My dad restarted to enter windows xp.. And now, i am in ubuntu and i don't get title bar for all windows.. it starts from main menu.
[16:15] <coz_> fedele,  then sudo apt-get install fusion-icon   then start up compiz with  the command  fusion-icon and that icon should show up in the system tray
[16:15] <mattias_> btw I'm using ati propriotary drivers
[16:15] <coz_> Archana,  did you install compizconfig-settings-manager
[16:15] <fedele> ok nks but i have that
[16:15] <fedele> thanks but i have ttha
[16:15] <coz_> Archana,  if not install it...if it is there open it and make sure the Window decoration plugin is enabled
[16:15] <fedele> *that*
[16:15] <Archana> coz_, I have it. And all the rotate cube effects , expo and others.
[16:15] <coz_> Archana,  is this gnome or kde?
[16:16] <xxx_>
[16:16] <Archana> edbian, Title bar = the bar which has the title of the window.. which also has window controls.. :(
[16:16] <Archana> edbian, are you joking me ? :(
[16:16] <edbian> Archana, metacity --replace
[16:16] <Archana> coz_, Gnome
[16:16] <raidghost> I try to figure out where i can activate 3d accelerator in ubuntu
[16:16] <coz_> Archana,  hit  alt+F2  type in    gtk-window-decorator --replace
[16:16] <edbian> Archana, Many people use many different names for many different things ;)  Sometimes it's hard to tell how tech savvy a person is...
[16:17] <coz_> raidghost,  system/preferences/appearance   Visual effects tab
[16:17] <Archana> coz_, windows decorations is ON
[16:17] <edbian> Archana, If you're using compiz take a look at the window decorations plugin in ccsm
[16:17] <Archana> coz_, wait i execute that command.
[16:17] <bandeira> i have a computer with remote access, but i'm not able to type on my computer. what's goin' wrong?
[16:17] <Archana> edbian, it's ON
[16:17] <pzn> to what group should I add an user? I need it to be able to configure eth0 IP address via ubuntu network manager
[16:17] <boo_> I hope this isn't irrelevant, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a software that would allow any given person to view a database of a computer from a completely different area of the country.
[16:17] <raidghost> coz_: i didnt think of the virtual effects tab
[16:17] <terry> bandeira: can you elaborate on that just a bit?
[16:17] <edbian> Archana, command: metacity
[16:17] <raidghost> more that i want to play tuxracer without picture by picture
[16:17] <Guest57863> I'm trying to figure out if my usb kernel modules are loaded, are they? http://www.pastebin.org/408546
[16:17] <Archana> coz_, I have got it on all the windows. THanks
[16:18] <coz_> Archana,   no problem now  open ccsm
[16:18] <Archana> edbian, coz_'s cmmand has worked B-)
[16:18] <edbian> Archana, Good! :)
[16:18] <Archana> Archana, And?
[16:18] <coz_> Archana,     then click on the window decoration plugin to get into it's settings and in the  "Command"  field  tell me what is there
[16:18] <raidghost> its a unlucky card i know. ATI Technologies Inc M26 [Radeon Mobility X700 XL
[16:18] <iceroot> boo_: you are searching for a database which allows remot connections from all over the world?
[16:18] <Archana> coz_, gtk-window-decorator --replace
[16:18] <Lalon> my whole screen of ubuntu 10.04 become black and after certain time horizontal lighting comes from my dark screen.. to solve the problem i had to restart my pc
[16:18] <terry> bandeira: Tell us specifically what you are trying to do and what exactly is not working for you.
[16:18] <bandeira> it's a computer from my LAN.. i can access it remotely.. i can move its mouse, but i can't type.. it's all about what i'm trying to do.
[16:18] <boo_> iceroot: or just the country, yes.
[16:19] <coz_> Archana,  ok then it was some gltch    if this happens again come into #compiz and let me know
[16:19] <iceroot> boo_: mysql, postgres
[16:19] <Archana> coz_, Do you remember me ? I was the one for whom you gave your ccsm settings on the #compiz channel
[16:19] <boo_> iceroot: thank you so much.
[16:19] <coz_> Archana,  oh yes    still using them?
[16:19] <ader10> How do I see what will be installed from a metapackage without executing an install command
[16:19] <iceroot> ader10: apt-get install packagename -s
[16:19] <Archana> coz_, I changed a little.
[16:19] <coz_> Archana,  well of course... thats' what you are suppose to do  :)
[16:20] <terry> bandeira: Still not sure about your situation but see that the keyboard is plugged in securely.  Is it on a KVM by  any chance?
[16:20] <ader10> iceroot: But I already have the package installed
[16:20] <Archana> coz_, Is there any other alternatives to compiz for visual effects?
[16:20] <coz_> Archana,  mm you mean like another window manager???
[16:20] <Lalon> how can i see my pc config in my ubuntu
[16:20] <cablop> thereá an applet for that!! :)
[16:20] <abhijit> Lalon, install sysinfo
[16:21] <Archana> coz_, soreau helped to create a "any" on obs with transparency for all windows....
[16:21] <coz_> Archana,  ok
[16:21] <glaucous> How would "mount --bind /dev/shm/tmp /tmp" look like in /etc/fstab?
[16:21] <Archana> coz_, and i set it too low that all windows disappeared :P . and then soreau again helped me to get that back .. hahahaha .. it was on the only admin account on this ubunut :P
[16:21] <Lalon> abhijit:  how big is that file
[16:21] <Archana> coz_, Yes.
[16:22] <abhijit> Lalon, not much
[16:22] <Archana> coz_, like ccsm
[16:22] <terry> bandeira: Basically, what you are saying is that the mouse works but not the keyboard? And is that when you are at the PC's own mouse and keyboard?
[16:22] <SuNk8> guys, how can I update my GRUB2 installed on a separate partition when I don't have Ubuntu installed?
[16:22] <dajhorn> glaucous: Why do you want to do this?  If you mount several tmpfs points, then they all use the same memory efficiently.
[16:22] <coz_> Archana,  well there are other window managers  , however.  none have the "effects"  that compiz does...they are tiling window managers like xmonad  but again  none with the kind of effects compiz has
[16:22] <iceroot> ader10: apt-rdepends packagename
[16:23] <coz_> Archana,  there is mutter with gnome3 coming up but even that is extremely limited and with the advent of compiz , mutter seems  childish
[16:23] <Archana> SuNk8, using a ubuntu live cd?
[16:23] <astrojp> What's some of the better software to use in order to make a video with music in the background, i guess you'd call it a music video..nothing too fancy...
[16:23] <glaucous> dajhorn, thought it might be easier to keep track of them
[16:23] <Archana> coz_, :-) thanks for the info!
[16:23] <revarr> how do I get my hot keys for my acer aspire 5740 to control volume
[16:23] <SuNk8> Archana, but, it is not possible to use the update-grub command as all /dev are not mounted...
[16:23] <revarr> the hot keys work for everything else
[16:23] <bandeira> terry: no.. just when i access it remotely.. when i'm hooking u
[16:23] <glaucous> dajhorn, but I guess I could mount several instead
[16:23] <erUSUL> astrojp: avidemux; openshot; pitivi ...
[16:23] <bandeira> terry: no.. just when i access it remotely.. when i'm hooking it up, i can type and move
[16:23] <dajhorn> glaucous: Don't do this, especially under /dev/.
[16:24] <coz_> Archana,  no problem... you know where to find me and soreau when necessary :)
[16:24] <coz_> be right back
[16:24] <revarr> other than brightness (which shows the bar change but no effect other than a small flicker)
[16:24] <terry> bandeira: What are you using to access it?  VNC?
[16:24] <glaucous> dajhorn, why not? /dev/shm is the default ram drive?
[16:24] <bandeira> terry:  yes.. now it's working fine!
[16:24] <bandeira> :D
[16:24] <SuNk8> Archana, I am running just SUSE and Fedora with GRUB2 installed using Ubuntu. I was hoping to run grub-mkconfig using the grub prompt... Can any1 please help me?
[16:25] <bandeira> terry: i've just kicked it.
[16:25] <dajhorn> glaucous: Not really.   Having multiple tmpfs mounts in the /etc/fstab is perfectly efficient.  You won't get any performance or management benefit from trying to use /dev/shm.
[16:25] <astrojp> erUSUL: thanks.
[16:25] <Archana> SuNk8, Good Luck
[16:25] <dajhorn> glaucous: Having /tmp in a tmpfs can be good.  Most programs use that for temporary space by default.
[16:25] <progre55> how to see the owner of a process in the process list? (ps)
[16:25] <SuNk8> Archana, :-(
[16:25] <glaucous> dajhorn, okay then I'll do that. Got some error when using the mount tmpfs command, hang on..
[16:25] <terry> bandeira: O, good... (I think).  (I don't normally kick my computers, but....may need to try that sometime.)
[16:25] <erUSUL> progre55: ps u
[16:26] <dajhorn> glaucous: You won't be able to change some mounts while the system is running.   Add /tmp to the /etc/fstab file,  clean out /tmp, and reboot.
[16:26] <progre55> erUSUL: no, I dont mean my own processes, but if a specific process was run by root or me
[16:26] <erUSUL> progre55: ps au
[16:27] <edbian> progre55, ps -e
[16:27] <erUSUL> or ps -ef
[16:27] <bandeira> terry: yeah! it's an old one actually.. i don't have that love for it anymore.
[16:27] <terry> progre55: ps aux
[16:27] <progre55> oh, thanks )
[16:27] <glaucous> dajhorn, anyhow I did not get any error when mounting new tmpfs mounts. When I have added /tmp to the fstab, should I REMOVE /tmp or just clean the folder?
[16:28] <terry> bandeira: Ok, well, I guess I'm just a sentimental old fool  :)
[16:28] <Oins> Hi, i have a simple test script (http://pastebin.com/PnmsrZpG) at /etc/cron.hourly. For testing i tried run-parts /etc/cron.hourly but nothing happnes. any clue?
[16:28] <Sary> terry__:
[16:28] <dajhorn> glaucous: The /tmp directory itself must exist for the fstab to work properly.  Just delete the contents of /tmp, otherwise it will be hidden underneath the tmpfs mount and you'll waste the disk space.
[16:29] <glaucous> dajhorn, okay that makes sense, thanks.
[16:29] <glaucous> dajhorn, size=default, that'll set it to 50% of my RAM, correct?
[16:29] <bandeira> terry: do you know if it's possible to have remote access not only locally?
[16:29] <glaucous> dajhorn, or not setting size at all
[16:30] <noob_69> hello
[16:30] <noob_69> It is me again
[16:30] <terry> bandeira: Well, that depends on your isp and your router's port forwarding capabilities etc...
[16:30] <terry> bandeira: .....but in short, yes.
[16:31] <Sary> noob_69: Hello & welcome back
[16:31] <dajhorn> glaucous: Yes, that is the default.  You don't need to specify it, though.
[16:31] <dajhorn> glaucous: Let the kernel manage it unless you've got a good reason to set it manually.
[16:31] <noob_69> during an electrical storm i was using my PC, then a lighting bolt striked near my house, and had a blackout, i do not have a breaker, so my 5amp multicontact box burned
[16:32] <noob_69> and no, when i try to acces internet, it wont llet
[16:32] <noob_69> let me
[16:32] <glaucous> dajhorn, okay great. Then I'll just write "none" below <options> in fstab?
[16:32] <noob_69> it works in this tiny pink netbook
[16:33] <noob_69> but not in my PC, the one it was turned on during the electrical storm
[16:33] <Zetx> hello, is there any recovery of a raid when you accidentally create a new raid with the same hdd's as an old one? the new raid isn't formatted or anything so it's still got all the old data, mount is just telling me that i have the wrong fs type (b/c it hasn't been formatted)
[16:33] <dajhorn> glaucous: No, use "defaults".
[16:33] <glaucous> dajhorn, oh okay
[16:33] <noob_69> so, is there a way to know if the internet plug is messed up?
[16:33] <dajhorn> glaucous: Be cautious and precise.  A bad fstab file can make your system unbootable.
[16:33] <coz_> Zetx,  if no one can help here you could also try the ## linux channel ..they have a broader base of info
[16:34] <rob_p> "internet plug"  :-)
[16:34] <Zetx> kk thanks
[16:34] <terry> noob_69: Look at the router or the pc and see if it lights up when you plug it in.
[16:34] <glaucous> dajhorn, right. Does spaces/tab matter?
[16:34] <dajhorn> glaucous: No.  Use what you prefer.
[16:35] <scorchgeek> I'm trying to set up a static IP address on my desktop so I can use ssh. If I try to go into the network manager applet on the panel and reset the IP, nothing happens. If I turn off the DHCP server on my router and reboot, my IP address changes to what I set, but I can't access the internet. What am I missing?
[16:35] <noob_69> Ubuntu should recongnize it right away, am i right?
[16:35] <thewanderer1> scorchgeek, a gateway
[16:35] <RedSky32> would anyone happen know the name of this engine that this theme uses http://gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre3/127730-3.png ??
[16:36] <slinker1> scorchgeek: or dns
[16:36] <scorchgeek> so what do I need to do to fix it?
[16:36] <terry> scorchgeek: You can leave the router's DHCP server turned on, just use an IP address that is outside the DHCP pool.
[16:36] <thewanderer1> scorchgeek, can't you just add a static binding on your DHCP server?
[16:36] <scorchgeek> I did that, do I need to reboot after that?
[16:36] <scorchgeek> thewanderer1: that's where you set the mac address to use an ip? I read about that but my router doesn't have an option for that
[16:37] <edbian> scorchgeek, If you give yourself a static IP you must also give yourself a DNS server :)
[16:37] <thewanderer1> schorgeek, okay, so you need to set up DNS address and a gateway for it to work statically
[16:37] <erUSUL> and gateaway
[16:37] <rob_p> scorchgeek: ...and a default gateway
[16:37] <scorchgeek> how do I do that
[16:37] <terry> scorchgeek: But you may need to turn off the network manager and dissable it and edit /etc/network/interfaces file
[16:38] <erUSUL> scorchgeek: in the ipv4 tab you can set the conf to manual and enter ip/netmask/gataway and dns
[16:38] <scorchgeek> so the gateway is the address of the router right? and then I just need to put in a dns server and it should work?
[16:38] <erUSUL> scorchgeek: the ipv4 tab is right clicking in network manager choosing edit connections. wired choose the correct iface
[16:38] <erUSUL> correct
[16:38] <Lalon> is there anything like download speed  and uploading speed showing meter in ubuntu?
[16:38] <scorchgeek> right got that
[16:39] <scorchgeek> ok I'll try that
[16:39] <terry> scorchgeek: correct
[16:39] <bazhang> Lalon, perhaps in conky if you configure it correctly
[16:39] <Oins> Found the failure. The cronjob script must not end with the ending .sh. Does anyone know why?
[16:39] <dajhorn> Lalon: The gnome system monitor panel can show you.
[16:39] <Oins> After renaming backup.sh to backup it worked
[16:39] <terry> scorchgeek: As long as the router's caching nameserver is on, you can use it's address as nameserver, (and it's usually on by default).
[16:39] <Lalon> bazhang:  how to see that in gnome system monitor
[16:39] <resno> Oins: i have .sh end on my cron without issue
