[17:02] <usr13> erhard: sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "Radio Rebelde"
[17:02] <Aethelred> Shhhh: if you used Wubi in Windows to install Ubuntu, you can ALSO use Wubi to UNINSTALL it.
[17:02] <erhard1> usr13: i wonder if there could be an issue with linksys, tomato firmware and ubuntu?
[17:03] <Shhhh> Aethelred:  yea when i run the uninstaller it takes like 2 seconds
[17:03] <erhard1> usr13: the command results in iwconfig: unknown command "RadioRebelde"
[17:03] <Shhhh> then says its been uninstalled?
[17:03] <Shhhh> and C:/ubuntu still is full
[17:03] <Aethelred> Shhh: did you want it to take longer?
[17:03] <santiago_> hey guys, i wanna be able to have windows and linux at the same time in my computer

[17:04] <Shhhh> and it is still in the add / remove programs list
[17:04] <santiago_> ?
[17:04] <Shhhh> santiago:
[17:04] <Shhhh> download wibu
[17:04] <dbu> darren: there are some aliases (possibly commented out) in there right?
[17:04] <Shhhh> *wubi
[17:04] <santiago_> Shhhh: whats that?
[17:04] <c0r3> hi everybody

[17:05] <santiago_> but i have linux already installed
[17:05] <Shhhh> ;/
[17:05] <santiago_> and i want to get windows
[17:05] <Aethelred> Shhh:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#Uninstallation
[17:05] <Shhhh> Aethelred
[17:05] <santiago_> should i delete ubuntu and install window and then re install butunu?
[17:05] <Ubersoldat> santiago_: via virtualization or via dual boot?
[17:05] <santiago_> dual boot
[17:06] <Ubersoldat> santiago_: then yes, because of windows way of fu***ing things
[17:06] <santiago_> oh ok... yah i know
[17:06] <Aethelred> Shhhh: you can use the Add/Remove facility in Windows to uninstall it.
[17:06] <Ubersoldat> santiago_: you can install windows and then try wubi
[17:06] <Shappie> santiago: You can just install XP and than restore Grub
[17:06] <santiago_> well thanks for your help
[17:06] <santiago_> yes i'll try that
[17:07] <santiago_> i prefer doing it the easy way as ubersoldat is saying... i always get messed up
[17:07] <darren> IRC Rocks!! I love learning, and it's great for that!
[17:07] <santiago_> i'll install windows and then use wubi :D
[17:07] <Picassotamus> Shappie: Not necessarily, windows will not install if it sees another os on the disk afaik
[17:07] <Aethelred> Shhhh: you can ALSO remove it manually by deleting C:\ubuntu and ALSO editing boot.ini (for XP, it's different for other versions)
[17:07] <HipNoTiK> Heyyy
[17:07] <Shhhh> Sooo even tho i ran the uninstaller can i still boot into ubuntu?
[17:08] <Ubersoldat> Shhhh: what do you think?

[17:35] <Shhhh> lol
[17:35] <oclet> lol
[17:35] <Pici> stop
[17:35] <oclet> so anyways its kind of a bummer
[17:35] <JhonnyDepht> hello, can someone tell which is the name of the cd burner for ubuntu that can be found on repositories?
[17:35] <oclet> i was up til 4am trying to get this piece to work
[17:35] <tk> HavocXphere: sometimes we try too hard when googling ;)
[17:35] <oclet> btw ubuntu netbook remix is pretty slick when running off the usb
[17:36] <GiantTalkingCow> Anyone currently using the latest Jaunty beta on a Macbook?
[17:36] <oclet> is there a channel for it somewhere? anybody know?
[17:36] <Pici> Shhhh: I don't recall exactly where it is in Windows, but I'd guess somewhere in System under the control panel.
[17:36] <Pici> GiantTalkingCow: Please join #ubuntu+1 for Jaunty/9.04 support/discussion.
[17:36] <sebsebseb> GiantTalkingCow: wrong channel #ubuntu+1
[17:36] <GiantTalkingCow> Pici: Thanks, will do.
[17:36] <HavocXphere> tk: Yeah. The man page confused me too. Thanks for the help.
[17:36] <tk> HavocXphere: np
[17:37] <sebsebseb> oclet: yeah there are netbook channels
[17:37] <sebsebseb> oclet: #easypeasy for the similar version to Ubuntu's thingey
[17:37] <oclet> not a netbook channel an ubuntu netbook remix channel
[17:37] <Shhhh> well i went to hardware maneger but the only info it gives is that its intel(R) extreme graphics controler?
[17:37] <sebsebseb> oclet: easypeasy is pretty much the same thing as the thing Ubuntu has  for netbooks,   also I am not even sure  if Ubuntu's version is suppourted  anymore, or suppourted properly
[17:38] <oclet> theyre releasing new versions every day
[17:38] <oclet> so they have to be chatting about it somewhere
[17:38] <carpii__> why would adept tell me i need to reboot to complete an update? Its like being back on windows :(
[17:38] <oclet> i'll check this out tho
[17:38] <sebsebseb> oclet:   type  /list in your client and that should list  all the channels on freenode
[17:39] <oclet> sebsebseb: stop talking to me
[17:39] <oclet> youve already proved how useless you are
[17:39] <sebsebseb> Pici: indeed :)  I think it was about time for that guy to go, as well
[17:39] <Pici> carpii__: It may ask if you installed an xorg or kernel update.
[17:40] <rampage73> anyone in here a sed or grep expert?
[17:40] <Pici> Shhhh: Are there any options to install drivers from System>administration>Hardware Drivers?
[17:40] <sipior> rampage73: best just to ask your question directly
[17:40] <Pici> rampage73: You may be able to find "experts" in #bash, but you can ask here too,
[17:40] <Shhhh> nope :(
[17:40] <carpii__> pici, ah right. yeah i think there might nhave been a kernel update now you mention it
[17:40] <rampage73> ok it is a long one
[17:41] <JhonnyDepht> hello, can someone tell which is the name of the cd burner for ubuntu that can be found on repositories?
[17:41] <Pici> !burning | jackviers
[17:41] <Pici> jackviers: sorry, mistab
[17:41] <Pici> JhonnyDepht: See ubottu above
[17:41] <DarrenL_> all: what's this identify think about?
[17:41] <rampage73> i need to find a pattern match in the beginning of a text file lines and replace not that but the last 50 characters of that line that the pattern matched at the beginning
[17:42] <rampage73> and of course this is a huge text file and doing this by hand 1 at a time is out of the question
[17:42] <ron2010> not getting much resposne from #vbox so i'll ask here
[17:42] <mheath_> rampage73: You won't be able to do that with Bash; you need a text parsing language like Sed or Perl that has what are called "regular expressions" for text
[17:43] <ron2010> how do i get my mouse to work in windows xp via vbox
[17:43] <ron2010> successfully install windows in vbox
[17:43] <ron2010> cant get mouse to work
[17:43] <rampage73> right i figured it would have to be sed i am not familiar at all with perl
[17:43] <krychek> hi, im trying to upgrade gutsy to hardy.. but the upgrade button is missing in the update-manager, could anyone help me?
[17:43] <rampage73> but i am still not sure after looking around on how to accomplish this task
[17:43] <allquixotic> ron2010: That's a #vbox question; but, real quick, did you try clicking in the Windows XP window to get it to capture your mouse?
[17:43] <Pici> ron2010: Just because you didn't get an answer in #vbox doesn't mean that its now on-topic for this channel.
[17:44] <erhard1> usr13: all i needed to do was to change the channel in the router...so simple! thx for the help anyways
[17:44] <Shhhh> ron2010:  as said before are you using a usb mouse?
[17:44] <ron2010> allq: i see the capture indicator for keyboard but not for mouse
[17:44] <thiebaude> krychek, did you open update manager in a terminal?
[17:44] <mheath_> rampage73: What you're asking to do is actually rather complicated, using a pure Sed expression.....Way beyond my experience. The only way I would know how to do it is programatically, using a more sophisticated programming language (perl would work well, but anything from C to java would work too)
[17:45] <ron2010> im using usb bluetooth dongle and bluetooth mouse
[17:45] <sipior> rampage73: so, you want to match a line, and then replace the last 50 characters? what are you matching on, and what are you replacing it with?
[17:45] <krychek> thiebaude: i tried to open it from both the terminal and from the menu
[17:45] <Shhhh> Hmm
[17:45] <rampage73> matching on a # that varies in the beginning of the line and the last 50 characters are being replaced with all 0's
[17:45] <Shhhh> people are saying they droped usb
[17:45] <thiebaude> krychek: strange problem
[17:45] <sebsebseb> a  guy wants me to help him install Ubuntu onto a external hard disk, and I been thinking,  each computer will want a differnet graphics card driver for example, but otherwise,  everything should be ok?
[17:45] <gamla_kossan> hi guys. I've managed to get ubuntu to set the wrong resolution, now my picture is really weird. where can I reset it from the command line?
[17:45] <gamla_kossan> anyone have a clue?
[17:46] <rampage73> thanks mheath_
[17:46] <Shhhh> gamla_kossan:
[17:46] <allquixotic> ron2010: vbox mouse with Windows Server 2008 guest works for me, so I can't reproduce your problem. Then again my mouse is using PS/2. I would think any valid X core pointer would be picked up by vbox, though...
[17:46] <usr13> gamla_kossan: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[17:46] <allquixotic> ron2010: Make sure VBox isn't taking control over your USB dongle though
[17:46] <Shhhh> when you are booting ubuntu it should give you a count down
[17:46] <rampage73> mheath_, i thought sed would do it but i do not "know that it will"
[17:46] <Shhhh> hit <esc> while its doing that
[17:46] <gamla_kossan> usr13: my bad, this v 8.10, so these settings aren't stored in xorg.conf
[17:47] <rampage73> sipior, matching on a # that varies in the beginning of the line and the last 50 characters are being replaced with all 0's
[17:47] <usr13> gamla_kossan: Actually the easiest way is just:   sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[17:47] <Shhhh> then boot recovery console
[17:47] <mheath_> sebsebseb: yes, for the most part. THere are a few quirks that make that hard to deal with...
[17:47] <amgarching> gamla_kossan: "man xrandr", or try "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output LVDS --auto" (not testted)
[17:47] <rampage73> sipior, and i have the pattern file that i used with grep to find all of these for the #'s at the front of each line
[17:47] <gamla_kossan> amgarching: thanks
[17:47] <sipior> rampage73: something like "sed -e 's/^\(1234567890\).*/\1000000000/'
[17:47] <gamla_kossan> amgarching: trying that right away
[17:47] <usr13> gamla_kossan: Try:   sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[17:48] <sebsebseb> mheath_: so you have done it, any suggestions?   I think it is just  put it on as if it was an internal and  then  what I said already
[17:48] <rampage73> sipior, thanks i will work with it
[17:48] <sebsebseb> mheath_: what are the quirks?  how to solve them?
[17:49] <Shhhh> i utterly am sick of windows
[17:49] <sipior> rampage73: the info pages for sed provide literally hours of amusement. depending on how you define amusement. lots of examples, and a good place for you to start "info sed"
[17:49] <Shhhh> but forced to deal with it :(
[17:49] <mheath_> sebsebseb: well, yes, that should work, but there are some annoyances with that process. First, Ubuntu doesn't automatically mount other physical hard drives if you didn't add them during instal,so you'll have to manually mount the drives on the machine itself to get access to them from Ubuntu...
[17:49] <rampage73> sipior, thanks been there and will go back or learn perl
[17:50] <usr13> gamla_kossan: Did you try:   sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf  ?
[17:50] <hbullen> Hey has anyone tried using a version broardband 3G card with ubuntu?
[17:50] <mheath_> sebsebseb: and Ubuntu's video stuff is going to be optomized for the graphics card and display of the machine you install it on. While its pretty forgiving and should fallback on something supported, you might eventually encounter a machine where those viodeo settings don't allow x.org to start.
[17:50] <krychek> why cant i upgrade from gutsy to hardy? damn
[17:50] <gamla_kossan> usr13: yeah, trying it now
[17:51] <mheath_> sebsebseb: theres no very good workaround for that, unfortunately. The one thing would be to customize the x.org config file to be very simple and generic, but that severely limits things like the available resolution and prohibits you from doing any 3d stuff.
[17:51] <Aethelred> ron2010: I was having a similar problem in VirtualBox running WinXP. I solved it with Guest Additions. I don't recall the exact details, but it still doesn't "capture" my mouse (like vmware would).
[17:51] <sebsebseb> mheath_: yeah I know about that
[17:51] <usr13> krychek: Why not?
[17:51] <sebsebseb> mheath_: ,but this particular guy may not even need the propritary driver anyway
[17:52] <gamla_kossan> usr13: sweet, it worked :)  (didn't think it would - I thought ubuntu handled reoslutions elsewhere since 8.10?)
[17:52] <usr13> krychek: Need instructions?:  http://www.ubuntugeek.com/upgrade-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon-to-ubuntu-804-lts-hardy-heron-beta.html
[17:52] <mheath_> sebsebseb: well, yeah, but even if you don't need the ATI or Nvidia propreitary driver's, its still cutomized.
[17:52] <usr13> gamla_kossan: It does IF there is not xorg.conf file.
[17:52] <Shhhh> Sooo
[17:52] <sebsebseb> mheath_: xorg you mean?
[17:52] <krychek> usr13: the upgrade button is missing
[17:53] <mheath_> sebsebseb: your video card, if its new, has a specific driver even if the driver is open source or free. X.org will be set to use this driver.
[17:53] <mheath_> sebsebseb: it will also autodetect your monitor settings, and configure the resolutions supported by the monitor you're using during the install.
[17:53] <krychek> usr13: these instructions are for hardy beta
[17:53] <onthefence928> does ubuntu automatically keep a log of all the text you see when you boot the system?
[17:53] <sebsebseb> mheath_: xorg could be rested in recovery mode or whatever, before using on each computer?  then get a new xorg config every time
[17:53] <Shhhh> Anyone want to give/buy me a new pc ?
[17:53] <usr13> krychek: What do you mean, it is missing?  Grayed out...?
[17:53] <onthefence928> Shhhh: sure, how about a system witha  4" display and 2 kb of ram?
[17:54] <mheath_> sebsebseb: well, yes, you can regenerate each time.
[17:54] <Shhhh> haha
[17:54] <amgarching> onthefence928: dmesg
[17:54] <sebsebseb> mheath_: as for detecting drives???
[17:54] <krychek> usr13: no, its just not there in the update-manager
[17:54] <mheath_> sebsebseb: you'll have to manually mount the hard drives on the host computer, if you want access to them.
[17:54] <usr13> krychek: Does it say anthying about 8.04 ?
[17:54] <usr13> or...?
[17:55] <sebsebseb> Shhhh: not a good idea to buy second hand PC's usaully, because you won't know what quality the hardware really is in, and other reasons, plus that's off topic here
[17:55] <sebsebseb> !ot
[17:55] <krychek> usr13: and when i run update-manager --dist-upgrade it says that my system is up-to-date
[17:55] <usr13> krychek: ... at top?
[17:55] <Shhhh> lol
[17:55] <ron2010> allq: what do u mean vbox take control of my usb dongle
[17:55] <krychek> usr13: no
[17:55] <Shhhh> yea i bought this pc im using here now used for like 20 bucks..
[17:56] <ActionParsnip> Shhhh: what spec?
[17:56] <Shhhh> umm
[17:56] <usr13> krychek: did you do update-manager --devel-release  >
[17:56] <RedMushroom> does anyone know of a simple FTP server i can use with ubuntu?
[17:56] <usr13> krychek: > was supposed to be ?
[17:56] <usr13> RedMushroom: vsftp
[17:57] <Spec> ActionParsnip: This one.
[17:57] <krychek> usr13: devel-release doesnt help either
[17:57] <usr13> RedMushroom: vsftpd   sorry, quit too soon.
[17:57] <ActionParsnip> Spec: cpu / ram ?
[17:57] <onthefence928> ok well i've been getting wierd error messages whenever i boot y system (which otherwise seems to run fine, but i'm a linux newb so maybe i just don't notice the problem during normal use) http://paste.ubuntu.com/146321/ <- is the output of dmesg, which looks nothing like the errors i see at boot, but regardless maybe someone here can help
[17:58] <onthefence928> on a side note apparently pidgin doesn't recognize the word linux and wants to mark it as misspelled >.>
[17:58] <onthefence928> and i'm running ubuntu 8.10
[17:58] <ss4vegeta4ss> hey
[17:58] <Shhhh> computer: Inter(R) Celeron(R) CPU 1.80GHz 1.79 GHz 512mn Ram
[17:58] <ActionParsnip> onthefence928: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/apic-error-on-cpu1-0040-613162/
[17:58] <sebsebseb> mheath_: I thought if Ubuntu get's put on a external hard disk,  that the computer gets told to boot from it?   and then Ubuntu should detect the drives
[17:59] <onthefence928> which i got by upgrading automatically from 8.04 (as opposed to a fresh install
[17:59] <Shhhh> sory i was busy
[17:59] <axsd9d> krychek: Did u check if your disrto was already upgraded automatically??
[17:59] <Smanett1> #soluxione
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> Shhhh: not bad, similar to all of my systems
[17:59] <mheath_> sebsebseb: yes, the drive itself is detected and auto configured. The rest of the drives are not.
[17:59] <krychek> axsd9d: my system is updated
[17:59] <Smanett1> #ubuntu-it-chat
[17:59] <ss4vegeta4ss> anyone know a good Torrent Prog like Rtorrent, command line Base, and auto Download torrent,, cause ,my rtorrrent dl speed is realy poor :S:S
[17:59] <Shhhh> i need more cpu :(
[17:59] <thiebaude> hi ActionParsnip
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> hi thiebaude
[18:00] <krychek> axsd9d: you mean it was automatically upgraded to hardy?
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> Shhhh: it depends on your needs
[18:00] <sebsebseb> mheath_: what about setting up two differnet hardware configs?
[18:00] <krychek> its still gutsy
[18:00] <zch> is there a way to set partition active from command line
[18:00] <Shhhh> yea
[18:00] <axsd9d> yes
[18:00] <proudfoot> hey
[18:00] <Shhhh> and my needs are WAY more cpu :)
[18:00] <mheath_> sebsebseb: THe way that ubuntu keeps track of what drives to mount is in a simple text file. While auto generated at install, this just has a list of the device ("/dev/sda1") and where to mount ("/media/harddrive"). If it isn't in the list, it won't be mounted.
[18:01] <proudfoot> is there a way to permanently change mac address in ubuntu?
[18:01] <mheath_> sebsebseb: you could write a script to do that, but theres no builtin support.
[18:01] <usr13> krychek: what does lsb_release -a  say?
[18:01] <zch> i am trying to make bootable usb stick, and windows isn't letting me set active partition unless it's first drive
[18:01] <usr13> proudfoot: Yes
[18:01] <axsd9d> well does gutsy support dist-upgrade??
[18:01] <proudfoot> usr13:  how?
[18:01] <sebsebseb> mheath_: hardware configs no built in suppourt on Ubuntu, but can write a script to do it ah ok
[18:01] <zch> now to avoid messing with drive order in bios, is there a way to do it from ubuntu?
[18:01] <krychek> usr13: 7.10 gutsy
[18:01] <onthefence928> ActionParsnip: i don't know if that is exactly my problem. and the posted solution seems to do nothing but ignore error messages
[18:01] <zch> i just want to set flag active on usb flash drive
[18:01] <proudfoot> i found a page off google, but my interfaces file is empty
[18:02] <onthefence928> ss4vegeta4ss: i use deluge
[18:02] <sebsebseb> mheath_: any idea how to do the script? or should I ask someone else who suggested the hardware config idea
[18:02] <proudfoot> and if i add something to that page, the network manager fails
[18:02] <krychek> axsd9d: all release should support dist upgrade
[18:02] <proudfoot> so i'm not sure how to change the mac address perm
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> proudfoot: you can edit /etc/network/interfaces and add a line     hwaddress ether 00:11:22:33:44:55:66  or whatever you wanna use
[18:02] <ChotaZ> What download manager to use with Ubuntu and Firefox?
[18:02] <rkaiser_ufrj> !ubuntu
[18:03] <ss4vegeta4ss> onthefence928 oh yah you can use it in command line ???
[18:03] <proudfoot> its empty, ActionParsnip
[18:03] <usr13> proudfoot: just edit  /etc/network/interfaces   and add line:  hwaddress ether 01:02:03:04:05:06
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> onthefence928: you need to disable apic basically
[18:03] <graynavigation>  I'm new to Ubuntu - running Jaunty 9.04 64bit - Sony z540 notebook with Nvidia 9300M GS switchable GPU- After I activated the recommended Restricted Drivers I restarted Ubuntu and now I do not get a GUI.

[18:03] <Shhhh> bye guys :)
[18:03] <proudfoot> the network manager fails to detect

[18:05] <zch> guys, any idea? make usb flash drive partition active?
[18:05] <JR_> zch: there is no spoon
[18:05] <proudfoot> i think intrepid network manager does not like it when you change /etc/network/interface
[18:06] <onthefence928> ActionParsnip: before i hunt it down on google what exactly is apic? i thought it just displayed messages from teh cpu?
[18:06] <onthefence928> the*
[18:06] <g4lt-lappy> Prounot on interfaces you haven't told it to ignore, no
[18:06] <usr13> proudfoot: Just use /etc/rc.local   and do:  ifconfig eth0 down ; ifconfig eth0 hw ether 01:02:03:04:05 ; ifconfig eth0 up ; dhclient eth0   etc...
[18:06] <Burntresistor> if everything is dependant on different programs are those programs updated automatically with  a linux update  or manually  and linux only updates what deals with the os automatically?
[18:06] <proudfoot> thanks
[18:07] <usr13> proudfoot: Most be something wrong if the interfaces file is empty.
[18:07] <proudfoot> it works fine
[18:07] <ss4vegeta4ss> anyone know a good Torrent Prog like Rtorrent, command line Base, and auto Download torrent,, cause ,my rtorrrent dl speed is realy poor :S:S    ?????
[18:08] <seb_> hi all
[18:08] <sebsebseb> seb_: hello a fellower Seb
[18:08] <sebsebseb> a fellow Seb :D
[18:08] <usr13> proudfoot: if it's wireless you'll have to also reset essid, i.e.  iwconfig eth1 essid linksys ; dhclient eth1  etc.
[18:08] <sebsebseb> seb_: a fellow Seb :)
[18:09] <danny1> How do i get ubuntu to install on iscsi, i have tried to pass the options "install iscsi=true" to the kernel when booting up from the server edition install cd (8.04), but it just comes up with a window saying "No disk drive was detected blah blah" just like it would when doing a normal server install.
[18:09] <proudfoot> so rc.local is run at startup?
[18:09] <seb_> i have no more sound on my ubuntu laptop..do you know any simple way to check whether it's a hardware problem ?

[18:09] <kravlin_> hey, whenever i try to sudo cd into a directory i get sudo: cd command not found, and now vpnc is doing the same thing. help?
[18:09] <fredoslack> :-)
[18:10] <Pici> kravlin_: cd is a builtin command.  If you need an interactive sudo session, use sudo -i then cd
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> kravlin_: yuo dont need sudo to cd
[18:10] <seb_> thx ;)

[18:12] <kravlin_> come to think of it, i've never seen the ubuntu channel quiet.
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> kravlin_: do NOT sudo gedit
[18:12] <danny1> !iscsi
[18:12] <aaldama> how can i config remote access for windows and mac om my xubuntu
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> kravlin_: use gksudo gedit
[18:12] <sebsebseb> kravlin_:  I have seen this channel rarther quite
[18:12] <danny1> worth a try heh
[18:12] <kravlin_> ActionParsnip: why not?
[18:12] <thejames2003> i can fairly clearly explain my situation
[18:13] <Pici> danny1: You may want to try asking in #ubuntu-server as well, they might have more experience with iscsi to help you out.
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> kravlin_: sudo gedit is not right and will damage file ownerships and file access
[18:13] <jove> hello all: does anyone know what best application of Ubuntu to draw a Network/Server ?
[18:13] <kravlin_> ActionParsnip: that's fine, but i've still lost the ability to vpnc using sudo.
[18:13] <danny1> Pici > thanks ill try that
[18:13] <sebsebseb> !best
[18:13] <Pici> jove: I don't know about best, but you could try using dia
[18:13] <thejames2003> i've done what it says here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> kravlin_: sudo does not configure the environment for gui apps like gedit, sudo is for commands that stay in the terminal like cp, mv, apt-get etc
[18:13] <RedMushroom> does anyone know if vsftpd comes preinstalled with ubuntu/
[18:13] <Nod51> I have a Sheevaplug and trying to access the serial console through /dev/ttyUSB* but the device is being detected when plugged in, but does not seem to make it show up under /dev/ttyUSB*. I have usbserial modules loaded.
[18:13] <RedMushroom> ?
[18:14] <thejames2003> and editing the menu.lst so that it has the title windows line etc... in it
[18:14] <Pici> RedMushroom: it doesn't.
[18:14] <thejames2003> but when i got to the boot menu to select windows it does nothing
[18:14] <faria> hello
[18:14] <RedMushroom> pici: thanks
[18:14] <thejames2003> i assume i have the wrong location entered as to boot windows
[18:14] <sebsebseb> faria: hi
[18:14] <kravlin_> ActionParsnip: understood, i'll do that, regardless, sudo vpnc has stopped working. i run vpnc as me and it tells me that i don't have the privlages.
[18:14] <sebsebseb> thejames2003: loads of us can help with Grub, but really we need to see your menu.lst first
[18:15] <sebsebseb> !pastebin |  thejames2003
[18:15] <faria> i am new in ubuntu
[18:15] <ChotaZ> When I installed Ubuntu, I left 100GB free to install another OS with it. I was thinking of installing WindowsXP, but as I'm doing it over Ubuntu(which I have never done before) I was seeking some guidance of what to expect and to do next.
[18:15] <macman_> there a way to backup all packages / dependicens .. so if i have to rm my hd i can get them all back
[18:15] <sebsebseb> faria: ok welcome,  what do you want help with?
[18:15] <faria> i want to play youtube on ubuntu
[18:15] <icanhascheezburg> hello everyone
[18:15] <icanhascheezburg> I need advice
[18:15] <ChotaZ> !question
[18:15] <sebsebseb> faria: ok no problem, you need to install Flash
[18:15] <thejames2003> is there anyway i can find out what it is i should have in there aka tell my computer where xp actually is?
[18:15] <aaldama> hi
[18:15] <faria> i did
[18:15] <icanhascheezburg> does the amd/ati linux driver still suck as bad as it did
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> kravlin_: try reinstalling it
[18:15] <sebsebseb> aaldama: hi
[18:15] <sebsebseb> faria: ok what's the problem?
[18:15] <faria> but still cant play youtube
[18:15] <thejames2003> and how do i find out exactly where it is.  i tried the boot line fdsik -l   but that didnt work
[18:15] <icanhascheezburg> I want to build a new computer and don't know if I should go with nvidia
[18:15] <zch> icanhascheezburg: thats what i wonder too
[18:15] <aaldama> i need a help with remote access
[18:16] <sebsebseb> faria: does FLash work on any other sites in Firefox?
[18:16] <jove> Hi, I setup the sound notification for this ubuntu channel chat, but I don't get any sound notification to me at all, does anyone has this experience ?
[18:16] <Aethelred> ChotaZ: My experience has been that if you're going to dual-boot Windows with anything else, the best way is to install Windows FIRST.
[18:16] <faria> i didnt try that
[18:16] <zch> icanhascheezburg: last time i checked it sucked bigtime but it's been a while
[18:16] <icanhascheezburg> anyone here using the new ati drivers do they still suck?
[18:16] <sebsebseb> icanhascheezburg: ATI have rather good Linux suppourt now, since open drivers
[18:16] <icanhascheezburg> do you use them personally for 3D games/?
[18:16] <ChotaZ> Aethelred: Is there a way to do it with ubuntu first, I need XP on this asap.
[18:17] <thejames2003> come on
[18:17] <sebsebseb> icanhascheezburg: no I got Nividia
[18:17] <faria> ok let me chek sebsebseb
[18:17] <icanhascheezburg> lol
[18:17] <thejames2003> pleaseee help
[18:17] <icanhascheezburg> ok
[18:17] <icanhascheezburg> they used to suck
[18:17] <icanhascheezburg> like a few months ago
[18:17] <thejames2003> i dont want to reinstall everything.  im so close
[18:17] <zch> i heard about ati open sourcing their drivers
[18:17] <Pici> !patience | thejames2003
[18:17] <paul68> !ask|thejames2003
[18:17] <thejames2003> all apologies
[18:17] <zch> but didn't tested, last time i messed with kubuntu and ati it was a major pita
[18:17] <thejames2003> man this mac irc client sucks
[18:17] <Aethelred> ChotaZ: I won't say it isn't possible, but I don't know how. If you need XP that quickly, I'd install a VM. I've had good luck with both VMware and VirtualBox.
[18:17] <sebsebseb> thejames2003: pastebin your grub menu.list or no one will help you
[18:17] <icanhascheezburg> anyone here use the newest arti drivers?  are they still horrible for 3D games
[18:18] <thejames2003> ok hold on thanks.  sebsebseb
[18:18] <Aethelred> ChotaZ: WinXP runs very well, I run Windows Apps natively. I can do it all in a window in Linux. For me, it's even better than a dual boot. I don't have to reboot to use Windows.
[18:19] <sebsebseb> just confiring here,   I assume two Ubuntu installs can share the same home folder, no problem?
[18:19] <sebsebseb> confirming above
[18:19] <ChotaZ> AethelRed: I'm soo going to do that, something I never thought off.
[18:19] <ChotaZ> about*
[18:19] <icanhascheezburg> surely there is someone here who runs ubuntu using the latest ati drivers
[18:19] <ChotaZ> AethelRed: I'll get VirtualBox
[18:19] <Aethelred> ChoatZ: the exception is with Games and anything else that wants directX
[18:19] <Aethelred> ChoatZ: but I run Adobe's creative suite with no issues.
[18:20] <ChotaZ> AethelRed: It was mainly for ACS(great!) and also some games.
[18:20] <Pici> !ftpd | RedMushroom
[18:20] <zilleplus> ca't get html page on ubuntu server 8.10 can some hepl me with this ???
[18:20] <wal3> When I connected my usb harddisk gnome asked me for password and I selected "save forever" - now the pw was wrong, how can I remove it?
[18:20] <Aethelred> ChoatZ: I found that when I used VMware, the Windows install went more smoothly.
[18:21] <macman_> yep
[18:21] <macman_> to easy
[18:21] <cmv583> hello! i am using ubuntu 8.10 and I updated and have not min, mx, restore, controls on individual windows only through AWN. I also cannot click on windows to manually resize them or move them. Anyone know what the problem may be?
[18:21] <Aethelred> ChoatZ: I moved my VMs over the VirtualBox, and had to noodle some things around to get the Mouse and Networking to work properly. It might have been easier if I'd done a fresh XP install for VirtualBox.
[18:21] <m0RrE> is it possible to build a kernel for a different architecture than the one you're building on?
[18:21] <sebsebseb> m0RrE: maybe, but why would you want to?
[18:22] <frederik> exit
[18:22] <m0RrE> i have 64bit on my workstation, but i386 on my eee pc.. and it's so slow to build on.. :D
[18:22] <m0RrE> got an I7 on my workstation so i thought i'd speed up the building
[18:22] <cmv583> when i tried launchpad i got this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/146349/
[18:22] <kravlin_> ActionParsnip: seemed to fix it... i was kinda hoping there was something i could learn to fix it.
[18:23] <DawnLight> hello. totem doesn't reckognize subtitles in a vob file. what can be done
[18:23] <wal3> When I connected my usb harddisk gnome asked me for password and I selected "save forever" - now the pw was wrong, how can I remove it?
[18:23] <ActionParsnip> kravlin_: maybe it'll be resolved in Jaunty.....
[18:23] <ChotaZ> DawnLight: Vlc Player, give it a try.
[18:23] <pezdssdfsewe> hi
[18:23] <m0RrE> sebsebseb: oh i googled it and found the solution :P
[18:23] <pezdssdfsewe> i need help migrating from suse
[18:23] <sebsebseb> m0RrE: ok good
[18:23] <DawnLight> ChotaZ: i have. it doesn't play it well. it ends playback after about a second
[18:24] <pezdssdfsewe> is it easy?
[18:24] <ChotaZ> Dawnlight: Never had problems with it, and I don't know Totem well, sorry.
[18:24] <icanhascheezburg> does anyone here run the newest ati drivers
[18:24] <icanhascheezburg> ???
[18:25] <krychek> anyone has an idea why doesnt gutsy offer me an option to upgrade to hardy?
[18:25] <icanhascheezburg> do a clean install never upgrade
[18:25] <DawnLight> what's the easiest way to get a remote desktop session gong?
[18:25] <DawnLight> going?
[18:25] <icanhascheezburg> vnc?
[18:25] <sebsebseb> DawnLight: with who?
[18:25] <paul68> icanhascheezburg: I use version 8.54.3
[18:25] <DawnLight> with a friend
[18:25] <Chancer1> hello everyone. I'm trying to install Ubuntu with Wubi, but it's not working. Can you help me?
[18:25] <sebsebseb> !vnc |  DrawnLight
[18:25] <icanhascheezburg> paul68, do they still suck for 3D ???
[18:26] <paul68> icanhascheezburg: I don't have any problem but I am not into gaming either sorry
[18:26] <icanhascheezburg> darn

[18:27] <Chancer1> guys, I installed Wubi, it copied Ubuntu files to "D:\ubuntu", but when I restart there's no boot option.
[18:28] <Chancer1> it loads windows withou options
[18:28] <krychek> i dont wanna do a clean install
[18:28] <sebsebseb> Chancer1: ok  for various reasons Wubi isn't recommend by a lot of more experiened Ubuntu users
[18:28] <tlm2024> how do you upgrade python 2.5.2 to 2.6 ?
[18:28] <Rebekah> I have a question about pcmcia support in ubuntu?
[18:28] <Chancer1> but I just wanna try ubuntu
[18:28] <sebsebseb> Chancer1: understood
[18:28] <thejames2003> hey sebesebseb
[18:29] <thejames2003> ive got my thing now
[18:29] <sebsebseb> Chancer1: ok pm me
[18:29] <Chancer1> and using live cd kinda suck
[18:29] <ChotaZ> Is there a way to completly backup my Ubuntu instalation (packages,dependancies,etc) so I can recover it after installing XP?
[18:29] <sebsebseb> Chancer1: yeah I know
[18:29] <thejames2003> umm you wanna private message me first
[18:29] <thejames2003> i dont know how to use this crappy irc client
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> Chancer1: install to a usb stick is my advice

[18:30] <ActionParsnip> thejames2003: its the same in most clients
[18:30] <Mike_lifeguard> re-partitioning the disc will always erase everything right?
[18:30] <tk> heh
[18:30] <Rebekah> i was wondering if ubuntu supported the D-Link DWA-652 pcmcia wireless net adapter
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> Rebekah: run lspci to identify the chip inside
[18:30] <Mike_lifeguard> ie the stuff in my windows partition will be gone
[18:30] <Bodsda> Hi, i had a iso file in my home folder, i deleted it then i deleted the file out of the trash. is there anyway of recovering the file?
[18:31] <ChotaZ> AethelRed: How can I backup my uubntu instalation? (Dependancies and packages)?
[18:31] <tlm2024> hi all, how do you upgrade python 2.5.2 to 2.6 ?
[18:31] <stuckey> Hello, I'm trying to run Quake4 and I get this error: ./quake4.x86: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[18:31] <thejames2003> sorry bout that
[18:31] <Rebekah> because my laptops internal card died
[18:31] <usr13> krychek: Did you try CLI?  e.g. sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade  ?
[18:32] <Mike_lifeguard> Rebekah: I imagine you'll have to look that up in the docs
[18:32] <usr13> krychek: If so, what error do you get?  If not... try it and see.
[18:32] <g4lt-lappy> Rebekah, grey tihg, chunky end?  I think that's a atheros.  if it is, you're golden

[18:33] <g4lt-lappy> of course, theis was some years ago, so YMMV
[18:34] <Dreamglider> Good evening folks.
[18:34] <Nemomnis> Hi everybody, I'm trying to install Opera with its packet, but Packet Installator says that I already have another application opened! How can I close it?
[18:34] <zloog> Hello nerds
[18:34] <camelreef> will 9.04 not be able to support iPhone/iPod Touch outside of GTKpod because of the move from Amarok 1.4 to 2.0?
[18:34] <Bodsda> Hi, i had a .iso file which i deleted and then deleted again from trash, now i realise i need that file -- is there anyway of recovering it?
[18:34] <paul68> !attitude |zloog
[18:34] <krychek> usr13: dist-upgrade just says 0 updated, 0 installed, 0 removed, 0 not updated
[18:35] <zloog> camelreef: Is amarok dropping ipod support ???
[18:35] <usr13> krychek: Try:  sudo aptitude update ; sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> zloog: hopefully
[18:35] <Tokenekie> Is there a way to compare STRINGS "less than or equal to" in bash script?
[18:35] <camelreef> zloog, not really, but the iPhone/iPod Touch is a special case
[18:36] <Guest7154> Hello
[18:36] <Acer_Extensa> Is this a good forum for asking for help with problems with Ubuntu?
[18:36] <zloog> Bodsda: I think it is really hard to do
[18:36] <Pici> Acer_Extensa: This is the official Ubuntu support channel... so yes.
[18:36] <krychek> usr13: 0 packages to be updated
[18:36] <paul68> Acer_Extensa: ask away
[18:36] <Tokenekie> Is there a way to compare STRINGS "less than or equal to" in bash script?
[18:36]  * camelreef find that rate quite frantic here....
[18:36] <usr13> krychek: Try:  sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[18:36] <Bodsda> zloog, think? what are your thoughts based upon?
[18:36] <zloog> Bodsda: http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html
[18:37] <Nemomnis> Hi everybody, I'm trying to install Opera with its packet, but Packet Installator says that I already have another application opened! How can I close it?
[18:37] <krychek> usr13: thats what i tried
[18:37] <usr13> krychek: Try:  sudo apt-get install -f
[18:37] <botux1> hey all
[18:37] <Tokenekie> Is there a way to compare STRINGS "less than or equal to" in bash script?
[18:37] <camelreef> oh well, too much too fast, too m any repeats
[18:37] <usr13> krychek: This machine is connected to the internet, right?
[18:38] <krychek> usr13: yes, of course
[18:38] <paul68> !patience|tokenekie
[18:38] <botux1> hey usr13 thanks for your help last night
[18:38] <Guest7154> I have a problem that I hope you can help me solve. I've got a computer without screen or keyboard, I want to see what's on the HDD's from my laptop. What can I do?
[18:38] <zloog> Tokenekie: What kind of ordering do you want?
[18:38] <zch> hm
[18:38] <botux1> and this mornign
[18:38] <krychek> usr13: install -f doesnt help either, there are no updates
[18:38] <zch> i am kinda baffled here
[18:38] <g4lt-lappy> Guest7154, ssh in, look around.  scp files you need off
[18:39] <Acer_Extensa> Using the "dir" command within smbclient, I can only see the first 500 files in a folder containing many files. Any ideas on how I could fix that?
[18:39] <Shock> Tokenekie: string1 < string2 True if string1 sorts before string2 lexicographically in the current locale.
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> krychek: sudo apt-get upate; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[18:39] <zch> i can ping normaly, i can resolve hostnames normaly, i can ftp normaly, but if i try to ssh to any domain it says name or service not known
[18:39] <julian__> hi how can i set the /dev/ttyUSB0 so that i can read out data with cat?
[18:39] <zch> any idea?
[18:39] <botux1> have everything running great now on ubuntu 8.10 but cant install kde
[18:39] <botux1> keeps saying kde isnt avail for my system
[18:39] <macman_> install gnome
[18:39] <Shock> Acer_Extensa: how about if you use "ls"?
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> zch: can you ssh to ip addresses?
[18:40] <zch> yes i can
[18:40] <Rebekah> thank u
[18:40] <allquixotic> Hey, is there any way I can run *every* interactive shell command inside an instance of screen and immediately attach to it, without using any added syntax?  If I use firefox smb:// to try to view the files, it still only shows the first 500, too.
[18:40] <zch> if i for example first resolve then ssh to ip it works normally
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> zch: you could try adding some public DNSes to /etc/resolv.conf
[18:40] <grawity> zch: do you have a file 'config' in your ~/.ssh/ directory?
[18:40] <krychek> ActionParsnip: it just says there are no packages to be updated
[18:41] <zch> ActionParsnip: already did, i can resolve everything normally, i just do nslookup and resolve everything
[18:41] <zch> grawity: let me check
[18:41] <Acer_Extensa> I am using easy peasy (based on Ubuntu UNR) and I am not sure if the problem is being caused by the operating system or by smbclient. Can you think of a way to isolate it to one or the other?
[18:41] <Guest7154> g4lt-lappy: How do I "ssh in"? I'm not at all experienced with networks.
[18:41] <Tokenekie> zloog: The files are listed alphabetically so I have a loop comparing each file to see if it is less than or equal to itself in ascii
[18:41] <Tokenekie> zloog: But what I have found so far is that comparing strings like [[ "$file1" <= "$file2 ]] will not work since <= is not an operator in double brackets?
[18:41] <Tokenekie> + "
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> krychek: then you have the latest apps on the set of repos ni /etc/apt/sources.list
[18:41] <zch> grawity: no there is no config file only known_hosts
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> zch: have you configured a firewall
[18:42] <Tokenekie> Shock: I keep running into commands that compare the contents of the file instead of the file name when I use some kinds of comparisons in script
[18:42] <krychek> ActionParsnip: my gutsy is up to date
[18:42] <zch> ActionParsnip: nope
[18:42] <Tokenekie> Shock: I'm unsure as to your complete syntax for string1 < string2
[18:42] <grawity> zch: hmm. What command do you use for connections -- simply 'ssh some.host'?
[18:42] <leafs911> hey i have a question about webcam drivers...i am new to linix, just switched from xp yesterday to ubuntu 8.10....my problem is with my webcam driver...i have obtained the driver from the internet but i have no clue how to install it....the instruction which came with the driver dont make sense to me....so if some cane please point me to the right direction it would be great....thanks
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> !gutsy
[18:42] <zch> grawity: yeah
[18:42] <Tokenekie> zloog: It lagged a little, did you recieve my last 3 responses?
[18:42] <Shock> Tokenekie: the syntax is exactly that: string1 < string2
[18:43] <microlith> o_O
[18:43] <zch> grawity: i used that normally for years now, everything worked, no idea what could have happened
[18:43] <Mike_lifeguard> leafs911: what documentation? It might make sense to someone else
[18:43] <zloog> Tokenekie: < and > should work i think, but #bash is a better place to get bash support
[18:43] <botux1> i have gnome installed but i wanted to be able to try out kde
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> krychek: gutsy is NEARLY dead
[18:43] <grawity> zch: And ftp, ping, telnet - they all work?
[18:43] <Tokenekie> Shock: so:   if $file1 <= $file2  ?
[18:43] <zloog> Tokenekie: Can I ask what you want to do with those filenames?
[18:43] <zch> grawity: that machine is accessible from web, i run several services on it, i can ssh to it normally, and yeah ftp ping telnet everything works
[18:43] <zch> oh wait
[18:43] <krychek> ActionParsnip: i know..
[18:43] <zch> telnet doesnt work

[18:44] <Acer_Extensa> But I know it can access all of the files in the share. "dir" shows the files with filenames through d, but "dir e*" will show all of the files with filenames beginning with e, not included in the first 500.

[18:44] <Tokenekie> zloog: Im trying to prevent doubling my efforts in comparing files
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> zch: ftp and telnet both use tcp so its not that
[18:44] <digitalexploit> zch do you have a valid gateway and dns?
[18:45] <Mike_lifeguard> leafs911: ok, maybe that makes sense to someone, but not to me either XD

[18:45] <botux1> when i go to add/remove and try to install kde it says kde cannot be installed on your computer type i386
[18:45] <grawity> RedMushroom: if it's a .tar.gz, simply use:   tar xf somefile.tar.gz   (this will remove .tar too)
[18:45] <Mike_lifeguard> gauravkittz: You should simply ask your question. If someone can answer it they will do so.
[18:45] <zch> digitalexploit: just did, still same
[18:46] <RedMushroom> grawity: thanks!
[18:46] <gauravkittz> ok
[18:46] <grawity> RedMushroom: Otherwise (if it's not a .tar), try:   gunzip somefile.gz
[18:46] <botux1> either the vendor requires special hardware orvendor decided not to support your computer type

[18:55] <digitalexploit> zch I can take a look
[18:55] <Mike_lifeguard> Why do you need to defrag before re-partitioning your HD (to do a dual boot) if it's all getting erased anyways?
[18:55] <zch> pmed you
[18:55] <krychek> usr13: apt-get is working, i just had a linux kernel upgrade
[18:56] <Mike_lifeguard> and... if it's all getting erased by re-partitioning, then won't Windows disappear into oblivion too?
[18:56] <edsmaffs> Mike: Repartitioning doesn't eliminate Windows
[18:56] <usr13> krychek: What do you mean?  Did you install a custom kernel from outside the package tree?
[18:56] <Mike_lifeguard> edsmaffs: but it will eliminate all my files?
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> botux1: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=982726  doesnt, it tells you to add a repo then install the kde
[18:56] <edsmaffs> Shouldn't do
[18:57] <mar2> hi there, during start up when ubuntu is checking the file systems i am getting an error after which it requests that the file system needs to be repaired manually. Could anyone help me out in solving this issue? It would be much appreciated.
[18:57] <Mike_lifeguard> O-o
[18:57] <santiago_> where do i get unrar-free from?
[18:57] <edsmaffs> But if you haven't defragged, any files at the end of the primary partition will be deleted
[18:57] <krychek> usr13: no, not custom kernel
[18:57] <usr13> krychek: or was that a kernel upgrad from the  normal pcakage manager upgrade function?
[18:57] <Mike_lifeguard> ok... well all the docs about re-partitioning say "omg, you'll lose everything so make sure to backup your files"
[18:57] <Mike_lifeguard> which is... "misleading"
[18:57] <krychek> usr13: yes, normal upgrade, i had kernel upgrade on my intrepid system today as well
[18:57] <botux1> Actionparsnip: thnaks i saw the the other link you sent the one you just gave me is better
[18:58] <edsmaffs> just make sure you don't use up all the space
[18:58] <edsmaffs> and if you're on Vista, only repartition from within Vista
[18:58] <krychek> usr13: http://pastebin.com/d594fea25 here is the sources.list
[18:58] <Mike_lifeguard> no, XP, which I guess can live with partitions made by the installer
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> botux1: np bro
[18:58] <tulexx> hi
[18:58] <edsmaffs> yeah, should be fine
[18:58] <botux1> actionparsnip: it says to add but doesnt tell me where to add it atlol
[18:58] <krychek> i made it minimal
[18:59] <santiago_> can some1 tell me how to unrar files!?
[18:59] <ActionParsnip> botux1: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[18:59] <santiago_> please
[18:59] <ActionParsnip> !rar | santiago_
[18:59] <tulexx> can anyone give me a clue what could i do with:
[18:59] <tulexx>  WARNING **: AT_SPI_REGISTRY was not started at session startup.
[18:59] <tulexx> ?
[18:59] <edsmaffs> santiago_: you need unrar-free, use package manager to get it
[18:59] <santiago_> i dont see it on the package manager
[18:59] <botux1> Actionparsnip: is there a way to add it using the gui not very good with command prompt
[18:59] <santiago_> i've searched for it
[18:59] <botux1> im ok but slow lol
[18:59] <Mike_lifeguard> ActionParsnip: what's the free alternative to rar anyways?
[18:59] <edsmaffs> you have got all sources enabled? check unrar
[19:00] <bhend> anyone know how to get out of a "screen inside of a screen"

[19:01] <lejames> how do i figure out what I need to adjust it to?
[19:01] <Mike_lifeguard> sequethin: what about gzip?
[19:01] <RedMushroom> when running the command ./configure on an extracted .tar.gz directory, i'm getting an error saying "C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sainity check" and it won't let me run the make command. anyone know how to fix this?
[19:01] <mar2> hi, would someone mind helping me to repair my file system manually? I am having an issue on startup that is asking for me to do this. thanks in advance
[19:01] <santiago_> i dont see "unrar"
[19:01] <Mike_lifeguard> which may or may not be something totally unrelated :P
[19:01] <santiago_> i search for it
[19:01] <CrawfordComeaux> so anyone know how to mount a 1TB external Western Digital HD?
[19:01] <sequethin> Mike_lifeguard: tar+gzip or tar+bzip2 are both alternatives to rar
[19:01] <botux1> ActionParsnip: is there a way to add it in gui im slow with the command prompt
[19:01] <Mike_lifeguard> ok, cool
[19:01] <mib_tpyh5kjh> i need help, i updated to the latest kernel and now my wifi dont work
[19:01] <sequethin> Mike_lifeguard: but gzip and bzip2 are only compressors, you still need tar to keep the directory structure
[19:01] <usr13> krychek: I think you may be missing some repos
[19:02] <ActionParsnip> botux1: well i gave you the command, you  can copy / paste the command
[19:02] <lejames> anyone?
[19:02] <lejames> no
[19:02] <usr13> krychek: Don't see gutsy-security main
[19:02] <usr13> krychek: Is that the whole file?
[19:02] <Mike_lifeguard> sequethin: /me lies: "Yes, I knew that" >_>
[19:02] <usr13> krychek: Are you restricted to CLI on this machine?
[19:02] <usr13> or...?
[19:02] <krychek> usr13: i tried to remove all repos but one
[19:02] <krychek> usr13: no i have full access
[19:02] <sequethin> Mike_lifeguard: haha another alternative would be to create a loopback disk image with whatever file system you wanted, and the compress that :)
[19:03] <jess3> how do i reinstall standard drivers after deleting them ?
[19:03] <botux1> actionparsnip: lol copy and paste it where?
[19:03] <RedMushroom> when running the command ./configure on an extracted .tar.gz directory, i'm getting an error saying "C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sainity check" and it won't let me run the make command. anyone know how to fix this?
[19:03] <Mike_lifeguard> sequethin: maybe, but that sounds scary XD
[19:03] <ActionParsnip> botux1: into a terminal, its a terminal command
[19:03] <usr13> krychek: Ok you may need to add some.... Let me look around just a bit.
[19:03] <Mike_lifeguard> I don't really need to know, was just curious
[19:03] <usr13> krychek: Do you have GUI on it?
[19:03] <sequethin> Mike_lifeguard: that's pretty extreme but if you're making an iso image it's basically the same thing
[19:03] <botux1> oh ok
[19:03] <mib_tpyh5kjh> i need help, i updated to the latest kernel and now my wifi dont work
[19:03] <krychek> usr13: yes, i have GUI
[19:03] <CrawfordComeaux> I'm not sure what the fs is on the external 1TB hd and don't really want to load it up in windows because I suspect it may have a virus on it.  Any suggestions on how to get it mount under 8.10 livecd?
[19:03] <sequethin> Mike_lifeguard: i'll shut up about it now :)
[19:04] <botux1> AtionParsnip: how do you open a terminal
[19:04] <usr13> krychek: krychek Do you know how to add repositories?
[19:04] <botux1> Actionparsnip: lol just teasing
[19:04] <Diabl0> :DDDDD
[19:04] <krychek> usr13: im readding all repos now, but it wont work..
[19:04] <Diabl0> alt+F12

[19:05] <sequethin> hahah that information is easily available. actually i use amarok because i love it and when i try to open an mp3 file with amarok the first tiem it says "omg u have no mp3 support, wanna get it?" and i say yes, and it gets it :)

[19:08] <RedMushroom> what does the command "sudo apt-get install" do?
[19:08] <ActionParsnip> botux1: cool, run: sudo apt-get update before installing whatever it says
[19:08] <usr13> krychek: And then you have to do: sudo apt-get update
[19:09] <botux1> ActionParsnip: whichsection do i add the line to
[19:09] <pjackson> How do I find out which package provided a file?
[19:09] <botux1> Actionparsnip there are a few sections to add to
[19:09] <deany> i went thru all the Ctrl alt F1-F7,  nothing, so its wasnt using an extra tty, and all the programs i had loaded arent loaded (looked in system monitor).  very odd.
[19:09] <usr13> krychek: sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade
[19:09] <ActionParsnip> botux1: add the repo address to the bottom of the file, save and exit it
[19:09] <botux1> ok cool
[19:09] <botux1> thought so but wasnt sure
[19:11] <krychek> usr13: no luck.. still no upgrade button
[19:11] <mib_tpyh5kjh> does anyone have a madwifi file as the site is not working
[19:11] <ActionParsnip> botux1: doesnt matter where it is in that file as long as its on its own line

[19:15] <usr13> RedMushroom: proftpd is an ftp server
[19:15] <RedMushroom> ubuntu
[19:15] <Mike_lifeguard> Are any of MP3, WMA, non-protected AAC, WAV and Audible 2,3 and 4 free file formats that intrepid will support without adding anything
[19:15] <RedMushroom> usr13: yeah, i'm looking for one that has a gui
[19:15] <usr13> RedMushroom: No
[19:15] <Mike_lifeguard> (ie, I know you can add mp3 support if you want... but what if I don't want?)
[19:15] <RedMushroom> so none of them have a gui?
[19:16] <karsten_> hello, i' ve got a problem. how can i see, which device in /dev/ my USB-Stick is?
[19:16] <usr13> RedMushroom: That is correct.  But not sure what a GUI would do for you...???
[19:16] <mar2> hi all. I need to repair a file system manually...can someone please help
[19:16] <PhotoJim> is there a known bug with Intrepid about USB?  there is a kernel warning about ehci_hcd and uhci_hcd driver loading order, but the stock kernel loads the 1.1 driver before 2.0.  that seems to force the 2.0 controller to run at 1.1 speeds.  the 1.1 is integrated on my server so removing it is not really an option, nor desirable.
[19:16] <RedMushroom> just make it easier to use.
[19:16] <mgolisch> karsten_: maybe check dmesg or run sudo fdisk -l and compare sizes
[19:16] <karsten_> ok thanks, i try it
[19:16] <usr13> RedMushroom: From the client you mean?
[19:17] <RedMushroom> no, for the ftp server admin
[19:17] <usr13> RedMushroom: To use???     Or do you mean to configure?
[19:17] <RedMushroom> basically, think rapache for an ftp server
[19:17] <deany> RedMushroom, proftpd has a gui.
[19:17] <usr13> RedMushroom: ? rapache ?
[19:17] <usr13> deany: Really>?
[19:17] <RedMushroom> deany: got proftp installed, not sure how to find the gui
[19:18] <botux1> im trying to install kde 4.2 and i added a source per the link ActionParsnip gave me can some one help me with the next step?
[19:18] <asdf_n00b> so no one's had problems with Flash in firefox??
[19:18] <santiago> hey guys, i downloaded a 4 files, all of them .rar containing parts of an .iso file.... now i want to get this iso into a cd... but i cant extract and manage to save it, any idea how to do it?
[19:18] <RedMushroom> usr13: yeah, it's a simple little gui program that'll just do things like start and stop apache, and allow you to specify which dir to serv out of
[19:18] <deany> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79588&highlight=proftpd
[19:19] <mib_tpyh5kjh> does anyone have this version madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007.tar.gz saved on there computer that they could pass to me ???
[19:19] <botux1> can someone help me with kde 4.2
[19:19] <Shock> mib_tpyh5kjh: have you tried to search through archive.org?
[19:19] <sebsebseb> botux1: get the ppa for it and install
[19:19] <sebsebseb> botux1: add the ppa repo and yeah
[19:20] <botux1> sebsebseb: ppa?
[19:20] <sebsebseb> botux1: instructions on the kubuntu site
[19:20] <mib_tpyh5kjh> Shock: no i will try now
[19:20] <sebsebseb> botux1: your trying to install kde4.2 in 8.10?
[19:20] <botux1> i added a source but dont know what to do next
[19:20] <antii> can I get my ATI HD4870 working with ubuntu?
[19:20] <sebsebseb> botux1: 8.10  only has  kde4.1 by default
[19:20] <botux1> sebsebseb: yes
[19:20] <mib_tpyh5kjh> shock: nope dont have it
[19:20] <botux1> right but it wont work
[19:20] <usr13> deany: deany RedMushroom Well, proftp does not HAVE a gui.  There is a GUI application that someone has created to use on proftpd
[19:21] <sebsebseb> botux1: it's kind of pointless bothering to put kde4.2  into 8.10 now, with 9.04 just round the corner with kde4.2 in the repo by default
[19:21] <RedMushroom> usr13: yeah, i'm wanting to install that i guess
[19:21] <deany> he asked for a gui, i gave him one.
[19:21] <botux1> when i go to add/remove it gives me an error whe i tryu to install kde
[19:21] <antii> anyone knows?
[19:21] <deany> the origin of it is not my concern :)
[19:21] <usr13> deany: RedMushroom I suppose all it does is start and stop proftpd right?
[19:21] <botux1> actionparsnip told me to install kde 4.2
[19:21] <sebsebseb> botux1: why?
[19:22] <deany> ive never actually used it ).. its easy enough without
[19:22] <usr13> deany: RedMushroom Because, that's all there would be to do is start or stop it.  Right?
[19:22] <Xcell> why not just install kubuntu...way less headaches
[19:22] <botux1> caus ei couldnt get kde 4.1 to install
[19:22] <barf> I have installed ubuntu 8.10 with bluez-sixaxis the ps3, it worked one time, but after reboot, I am not able to control the keyboard or mouse after the point of putting in the password in gdm
[19:22] <barf> $ dpkg -l |grep six

[19:22] <barf> What could be the problem?
[19:22] <FloodBot1> barf: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:22] <sebsebseb> Xcell: why not just  install 9.04 when it's released and have KDE 4.2 in the repo by default, less head aches :D
[19:22] <botux1> sebsebseb: i keep getting an error
[19:22] <Tesla> How do I shot web?
[19:22] <Aethelred> barf: you chose the correct nick.
[19:22] <deany> usr13, its a gui to setup the server
[19:22] <sebsebseb> oh and people should clean install for 9.04 really,  well if they want Ext4
[19:23] <Xcell> good point.. i have not tried 9.04 yet... maybe this weekend.
[19:23] <barf> Aethelred: Is it a problem that I chose the right nick?
[19:23] <sebsebseb> Xcell: not yet
[19:23] <antii> does hd4870 work with ubuntu?
[19:23] <sebsebseb> Xcell: April 23rd is the release date
[19:23] <Xcell> oh...ok..thanks
[19:23] <Aethelred> barf: no, it's a problem that you're barfing stuff onto the channel  :)
[19:23] <usr13> deany: RedMushroom Ok
[19:23] <sebsebseb> Xcell: and for the main feature Ext4 suppourt, you need to clean install really, since Ext3 can only be upgraded to partial suppourt
[19:23] <barf> Aethelred: But social pornography is OK?
[19:24] <Xcell> im still on my (flawless) 7.10 with all the goodies operating @ a 100% rating..lol
[19:24] <sebsebseb> Xcell: yeah Gutsy was nice, no longer supourted though
[19:24] <Xcell> ya... 2 bad..
[19:24] <Aethelred> barf: I'm pretty sure that this discussion is already too existential to be on-topic. Cheers.
[19:24] <sebsebseb> botux1: KDE 4.2  no point bothering now, you see why
[19:24] <botux1> sebsebseb: if i could get kde 4.1 to install that would be fine but it keeps giving me an error
[19:24] <imachine_> hey, is there any way to make NetworkManager connect automatically to VPN once I start a network connection?
[19:25] <Xcell> back to work i go..bbiab
[19:25] <barf> Aethelred: I apologize for following your derail
[19:25] <sebsebseb> botux1: clean install  in a few weeks do 9.04 with Ext4, and have KDE 4.2 in the repo by default
[19:25] <faria> i cant play youtube
[19:25] <faria> plz guide
[19:25] <botux1> sebsebseb: didnt really wann wait 3 weeks for it
[19:25] <sebsebseb> botux1: what's wrong with Gnome?
[19:25] <Tesla> How do I shot web?
[19:25] <Lint01> !backup
[19:26] <usr13> deany: RedMushroom Interesting: http://gadmintools.flippedweb.com/
[19:26] <botux1> sebsebseb: nothing just wanted to be able to play with kde as well
[19:26] <sebsebseb> botux1: how new are you to Ubuntu?
[19:26] <Tesla> !shotweb
[19:26] <usr13> deany: Thanks for correcting me.
[19:26] <sebsebseb> botux1: and what people don't tell you is, with 8.10 and 9.04  they miss out on KDE3 :(  which was really nice indeed
[19:26] <spaceBARbarian> how do i configure ubuntu to use the updates mirror located at my college ?
[19:26] <botux1> sebsebseb: pretty new i usually use fedora, slackware or mandriva but was told to try ubunut because its awesome so wanted to check it out
[19:26] <tulexx> does anyone know how to resolve problems with dasher?
[19:27] <sebsebseb> botux1: KDE3 is nicer than KDE4,  and if you want to play with KDE3, you should do both versions :)  ,but yes not in the repo for 8.10 and 9.04,   KDE3 is in the repo for 8.04 however.  and  after all those years of development, it's ashame that good software has to stop being developed
[19:27] <elmarcer> Question: What linux distrubiton do you guys recommend to play around with in Virtualbox? (besides puppy)
[19:27] <nicolas_> fgfg
[19:28] <usr13> spaceBARbarian: Open System -> Administration -> Update Manager
[19:28]  * BamHI_ is trying to connect to a VPN that requires a shared key but doesn't know where to put the shared key
[19:28] <botux1> sebsebseb: lol i justr wanna get a version of kde to work lol
[19:28] <Lartza_> How do I see what eth m pci cards are?
[19:28] <botux1> sebsebseb: always a shame when stellar software is stopped
[19:28] <spaceBARbarian> usr13: i looked at that but my school's mirror is not listed and it won't let me define one
[19:28] <elmarcer> Lartza: lspci doesnt work?
[19:29] <Guest15485> hey guys.........I have just installed Ubuntu and I am trying my best to get the Beryl installed and I am getting repository issues with unmet dependencies......is there anyone here that can suggest a repository that I can use in the source.list file that would solve my problems?
[19:29] <Lartza_> I don't remember commands that good, thaks :)
[19:29] <usr13> spaceBARbarian: To add additional repositories, click the "Add" button, and enter the location of the repository in the window
[19:29] <botux1> sebsebseb: keeps saying kde4 cannot be installed on your computer type
[19:29] <elmarcer> "lspci". works (just learned that hehe :) )
[19:29] <sebsebseb> botux1: what is your computer type?
[19:29] <Lartza_> BUt it won't tell eth numbers
[19:30] <eqisow> Guest15485: Beryl is now compiz fusion and is part of Ubuntu by default. Just turn on effects under appearance
[19:30] <spaceBARbarian> usr13: do i add deb http://carroll.aset.psu.edu/pub/linux/distributions/ubuntu/dists/jaunty-updates/
[19:30] <botux1> p4 3.99 ghz with 512mb ram
[19:30] <usr13> Lartza_: ifconfig
[19:30] <botux1> i386
[19:30] <sebsebseb> botux1: how old is your computer?
[19:30] <botux1> mmm not very old
[19:30] <sebsebseb> botux1: 512MB RAM that could be the problem,  KDE4 is probably a lot more of a RAM hog than KDE3
[19:30] <Guest15485> eqisow:  Could you please assist?  Under appearance?
[19:30] <usr13> spaceBARbarian: Yes, if that is correct path.
[19:31] <Lartza_> Thanks that worked
[19:31] <sebsebseb> botux1: and installing kbuuntu-desktop from the repo should have just worked
[19:31] <eqisow> guest15485: System --> Preferences --> Appearance --> Visual Effects tab
[19:31] <Marius__> hi
[19:31] <Guest15485> eqisow:   It tells me that desktop effects could not be enabled.......
[19:32] <botux1> sebsebseb: couldnt find kbuntu-dekstop
[19:32] <darthanubis> http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=intel_core_i7&num=1
[19:32] <spaceBARbarian> usr13: i added that location but how do i select it under the ubuntu software tab ?
[19:32] <eseven73> only 512 ram? ram is so cheap these days, why not upgrade? A movie and popcorn costs more :)
[19:32] <nicolas_> jkhj
[19:32] <usr13> spaceBARbarian: deb http://xxx.xxxx/xxx/xx.xx hardy main
[19:32] <eqisow> Guest15485: Then the problem is lack of 3D acceleration. What card do you have?
[19:33] <usr13> spaceBARbarian: Sorry.... but a little more to it.
[19:33] <spaceBARbarian> right i added "deb http://carroll.aset.psu.edu/pub/linux/distributions/ubuntu/ jaunty main"
[19:33] <Guest15485> eqisow:  ATI Radeon Mobility X1400
[19:33] <spaceBARbarian> usr13: right so how do i select it as my updates server ?
[19:33] <sebsebseb> botux1: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[19:34] <eqisow> Guest15485: See here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[19:34] <Lartza_> 3com vs. ADMtek?
[19:34] <Lartza_> What should iI use to connect gateway to router and what gateway to computer

[19:34] <botux1> sebsebseb: whoa its wokring
[19:35] <potio> ;)
[19:35] <sebsebseb> botux1: well I don't know what you did, but that's the  standard way to install KDE 4.1
[19:35] <SandGorgon> guys.. how do I recover a file that I accidentally rm -rf ed ?
[19:35] <grout> Hey guys im running jaunty beta and have enabled the default gnome vnc server.  I am able to log into the box and see the desktop but i cannot control anything, any ideas?
[19:35] <sebsebseb> botux1: I mean don't know what your error was about before etc
[19:35] <botux1> sebsebseb: i clikced on add/remove on the bar then tried to select it
[19:35] <usr13> spaceBARbarian: They will probably show up under the Third-Party Software Tab
[19:36] <sebsebseb> botux1: don't use add/remove  that's for right newbies,  you want commands  or  synaptic package manager
[19:36] <botux1> yes command s would be good
[19:36] <botux1> trying to get used to command propt again been a bit since i used it
[19:36] <spaceBARbarian> usr13: right it shows up there, and i selected it, does that mean it will be also used for updates now ?
[19:37] <Tesla> THE GAME
[19:37] <botux1> sebsebseb: kubunut=kde 4 for ubunut?
[19:37] <sebsebseb> botux1: yeah
[19:37] <usr13> spaceBARbarian: I don't know.  I suppose it will if you un-slect the other.
[19:37] <botux1> cool
[19:37] <sebsebseb> botux1: theres Xubuntu as well which is XFCE
[19:38] <sebsebseb> botux1: can install the other two in an Ubuntu install, just as for example,  Ubuntu could be installed into a Kubuntu install
[19:38] <sebsebseb> botux1: under the hood and that, it's all Ubuntu
[19:38] <barf> How can I enable XDMCP without access to the GUI?
[19:38] <Lartza_> Oh no
[19:39] <Lartza_> I pasted command and it runned it right away
[19:39] <Lartza_> How do I undo this: sudo iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -s <IP_ADDRESS>/24 -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT
[19:39] <barf> Ehh
[19:39] <usr13> spaceBARbarian: probably should have been: deb http://xxx.xxxx/xxx/xx.xx hardy-security main

[19:40] <Tokenekie> Hi, how do I sort the files in a directory such that all hidden files are listed first?
[19:40] <barf> or you could run sudo /etc/init.d/iptables
[19:40] <usr13> spaceBARbarian: And you may need to do   apt-get update   afterward.
[19:40] <barf> to set the default
[19:40] <sebsebseb> botux1: may as well do this one as well:  sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop

[19:40] <Mike_lifeguard> Install Ubuntu. Use the Ubuntu Migration Assistant to import My Documents, Pictures, and Favorites into Ubuntu." - does that imply I can access files on my Windows partition from Ubuntu?
[19:41] <Lartza_> what is the chain?
[19:41] <botux1> sebsebseb: cool i like to swithc between all of them sometimes just to see which i like better and see the differences
[19:41] <barf> Lartza_: BTW this is how to do the iptables IMO

[19:41] <sebsebseb> botux1: your lacking KDE3 though :(
[19:41] <usr13> Lartza_: Yes, X is for chain
[19:41] <botux1> sebsebseb: right but it installed in the beginning when i first setup ubuntu and its uinstalling with ked
[19:41] <unop> Tokenekie, within nautilus? or at the shell (bash)?
[19:42] <Tokenekie> unop: shell

[19:43] <mib_0gzlxvnk> is there a way to downgrade to the old kernel ?
[19:43] <barf> init.d is a folder and not a command
[19:43] <tonyyarusso> snakedog: a) define the type of hard drive, b) define "automount" for your purposes.
[19:43] <sebsebseb> mib_0gzlxvnk: why would you want to?
[19:43] <khunt> I have mounted my gmail account as a free online drive its 7.2gb
[19:43] <barf> Do you type what I write or copy paste it?
[19:43] <khunt> awesome
[19:43] <Lartza_> barf: Both
[19:43] <Lartza_> sudo: /etc/init.d/iptables: command not found
[19:43] <botux1> sebsebseb: if you dont mind me asking which apps?
[19:44] <mib_0gzlxvnk> sebsebseb: because upgrading to the new one lastnight cause my wireless to stop working
[19:44] <tonyyarusso> khunt: which tool didy ou end up using?
[19:44] <barf> ahh
[19:44] <khunt> gmailfs
[19:44] <khunt> it was dead simple
[19:44] <barf> That’s not what I wrote...
[19:44] <khunt> in the end...
[19:44] <barf> I recommend copy/paste

[19:44] <macman_> sorry
[19:44] <tonyyarusso> khunt: Nifty.  I tried it a long time ago, but at that stage it wasn't really usable.
[19:44] <Lartza_> "barf: or you could run sudo /etc/init.d/iptables"
[19:44] <barf> Aha
[19:45] <barf> as the default iptables
[19:45] <Lartza_> doesn't work
[19:45] <ryan__> I've got two questions... One, does anyone have any ideas why my GRUB never counts down? It just sits there saying it will auto boot in 3 and never counts down.
[19:45] <barf> Are you telling me that you did not install iptables?
[19:45] <barf> Did you compile it?
[19:45] <snakedog> tonyyarusso: its a internal sata harddrive that i have backups on, i want it to mount so that windows machines can upload through samba backups to the harddrive without me having to click on the disk

[19:45] <sebsebseb> botux1: Konversation altough that's still a KDE3 app, but they are working on a KDE4 version.   I  like Ktorrent,  and uhmmmm   I guess that's about it for KDE apps actsaully
[19:45] <macman_> i want to backup like 10 directories of a windows machine using a linux live cd .. is there anyway i can make the backup into images ?
[19:45] <sebsebseb> botux1: KOffice is nice to, but don't have that installed
[19:45] <Lartza_> iptables command returns try -h or --help for help
[19:45] <tonyyarusso> snakedog: Mount when, just on boot?

[19:46] <barf> There is a difference between the command /sbin/iptables and the script /etc/init.d/iptables
[19:46] <mib_0gzlxvnk> would updating to ubuntu 9.4 solve my wireless problem ?

[19:47] <danbhfive> mib_0gzlxvnk: whats your problem?
[19:47] <tonyyarusso> mar2: Not sure what you mean by manually, but the easiest way is to do 'sudo touch /forcefsck' and reboot, and hope the system can figure it out.
[19:47] <barf> should give you a list of what iptables has in "minde"
[19:47] <unop> Tokenekie,  perl -le 'print for sort <*>,<.*>'
[19:47] <Lartza_> So I got the chain names
[19:47] <ryan__> Does anyone have any ideas why my GRUB never counts down? It just sits there saying it will auto boot in 3 and never counts down.
[19:47] <botux1> sebsebseb: ktorrent the ebst torrent program out there for linux?
[19:47] <mib_0gzlxvnk> danbhfive: last night there was a update for the kernels, i installed them and after restarting my wireless stop working

[19:48] <Lartza_> -XF with all the chains?
[19:48] <khunt> tonyyarusso, you can follow what i did in th kuki forum http://www.kuki.me
[19:48] <barf>  -XF removes everything
[19:48] <Lartza_> no
[19:48] <barf> man iptables
[19:48] <Lartza_> i need to specify chain
[19:48] <sebsebseb> botux1:   Ktorrent is great,  and they really have improved the KDE4 version over the KDE3 version, same thing applys for Dolphin the new default file manager in KDE
[19:49] <Lartza_> lartza@ubuntu:~$ sudo iptables -XF
[19:49] <Lartza_> iptables: No chain/target/match by that name
[19:49] <sebsebseb> !best |  botux1
[19:49] <Lartza_> Woops sorry, I am real hurry(multiline paste)
[19:49] <barf> sudo iptables -vL
[19:49] <Lartza_> barf: And it lists the chains again
[19:49] <botux1> sebsebseb: lol now if i can juts find a program to talk on google talk ill be fine
[19:49] <barf> many?
[19:49] <usr13> Lartza_: You have to specifiy the chain you want to flush.  If  you want to flush all just use -F
[19:49] <barf> How do you set the chains usually?
[19:50] <Lartza_> INPUT, FORWARD and OUTPUT
[19:50] <mib_0gzlxvnk> danbhfive: have you got any ideas on how to get it to work again ?
[19:50] <Lartza_> I only flush forward right?
[19:50] <jimdunnigan> hi!
[19:50] <barf> Don’t you have a script?
[19:50] <jimdunnigan> im trying to install ubuntu 8.10
[19:50] <Lartza_> I haven't use iptables more than this:
[19:50] <Lartza_> sudo iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -s <IP_ADDRESS>/24 -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT
[19:50] <barf> Where did you set the rules from?
[19:50] <jimdunnigan> and it takes me to a login screen when i boot to the cd!
[19:50] <Lartza_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing
[19:50] <barf> Then there is only
[19:50] <barf> sudo iptables -F
[19:50] <barf> sudo iptables -X
[19:50] <jimdunnigan> why would it take me to a login screen anybody know?
[19:50] <barf> and you should be back to the beginning
[19:50] <usr13> Lartza_: Do you want to delete that rule?
[19:51] <Syntux> any chance to load hfs (journaling is on) with rw access
[19:51] <Lartza_> usr13: I wanted to undo that command completely
[19:51] <mar2> tonyyarusso: hey :) i read this thread which tries to explain what i should do but i'm a bit unnerved by what it could do as i'm very new to ubuntu/linux: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1067879&highlight=repair+file+system+manually
[19:51] <usr13> Lartza_: iptables -D FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -s <IP_ADDRESS>/24 -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT
[19:51] <Lartza_> Since it had eth0 and eth1 wrong way aorund
[19:51] <RockClimber> hello, are there any ways of tricks for minimizing the effect of "traffic shaping" on broadband when using bittorrent to download isos. I leave a distro to download during the day and get back to find only 100mb downloaded, but middle of the night I get 800mb in about 20 mins.
[19:51] <sebsebseb> botux1: Pidgin
[19:51] <sebsebseb> botux1: for the im part of it
[19:51] <vegombrei> whats the best dvd burning software?
[19:52] <sebsebseb> !best |  vegombrei
[19:52] <barf> Syntux: I think it’s better to mount ext3 through MacFUSE
[19:52] <Lartza_> usr13: thank you
[19:52] <sebsebseb> vegombrei: K3B is rather nice
[19:52] <botux1> sebsebseb: just for im part what about the other parts lol
[19:52] <vegombrei> sebsebseb: sudo apt get it ?
[19:52] <sebsebseb> vegombrei: Brasero the default in Ubuntu, is pretty good as well
[19:52] <jimdunnigan> anybody ? :(
[19:52] <sebsebseb> vegombrei: yeah and it's a KDE app, so will put KDE stuff on if you don't have already
[19:52] <epifanio> hi ,  do you know the path to the log-in window image in ubuntu ?
[19:53] <Syntux> barf, the thing is, I have a mac hdd that I need to mount and modify and I don't have access to mac machine to turn off the journaling, so I'm looking for a way
[19:53] <sebsebseb> vegombrei: sudo apt-get install k3b
[19:53] <tonyyarusso> mar2: if you're dealing with your root partition you may need to use a Live CD to accomplish this.
[19:53] <RedMushroom> how do you uninstall a program through the command line?
[19:53] <vegombrei> sebsebseb: dude im using gnome
[19:53] <jess3> sudo apt-get remove
[19:53] <sebsebseb> botux1: the actasul  Google Talk for Windows has some other features as well
[19:53] <usr13> jimdunnigan: You are where?  At a login screen?
[19:53] <sebsebseb> vegombrei: yes and you can run KDE apps in Gnome
[19:53] <RedMushroom> jess3: any other modifiers that need to go w/ that?
[19:53] <barf> Syntux: I assume turning off the journaling is not a simple thing in HFS+, it’s not ext3 by any means
[19:54] <RedMushroom> like, suto apt-get remove <program name>?
[19:54] <mar2> tonyyarusso: how do i check which partion it is refering to when it says /dev/sda2?
[19:54] <jess3> RedMushroom just the app name which u used to install it with
[19:54] <botux1> sebsebseb: right i just use it for chat pretty much but was thinking about using the video chat option in the future

[19:54] <sebsebseb> botux1: sadly no suppourt for that under Linux
[19:54] <barf> Which config file does line 3 of this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=3559043&postcount=2 make a change to?
[19:54] <tonyyarusso> mar2: Well, once things are mounted the 'mount' or 'df' commands will show you the pairings.  Otherwise they'll probably be listed in /etc/fstab.
[19:55] <Syntux> barf, I understand but with their disk utility it's just a click. now I'm in a situation where i need to access it and rename some files, do you think that would be earthly possible?
[19:55] <botux1> :(
[19:55] <sebsebseb> RedMushroom: sudo apt-get purge  programname  that will delete the config files as well
[19:55] <vegombrei> sebsebseb: thanks dude
[19:55] <sebsebseb> vegombrei: no problem
[19:55] <ryan__> Does anyone have any ideas why my GRUB never counts down? It just sits there saying it will auto boot in 3 and never counts down.
[19:55] <barf> Syntux: I think the simplest way to do it is to make script full of mv and ask whoever needs the new names to run that script
[19:55] <barf> or maybe cp
[19:56] <sebsebseb> ryan__: a bad Grub install maybe
[19:56] <tonyyarusso> ryan__: does your hardware clock work outside of grub?
[19:56] <sebsebseb> ryan__: maybe you should attempt to re install Grub
[19:56] <ryan__> tony: It seems to
[19:56] <Syntux> barf, oh that would be disaster hehe
[19:56] <barf> Then I do not know
[19:56] <ryan__> sebsebseb: Can that be done without reinstalling the entire OS?
[19:56] <sebsebseb> ryan__: of course
[19:57] <BCampbell> Not real keen on Amarok, anyone have suggestion for a music player?  have 35K+ in collection, many playlists

[19:57] <mar2> tonyyarusso: the mount command generates this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1067879&highlight=repair+file+system+manually
[19:57] <ryan__> sebsebseb: Thanks
[19:57] <barf> Maybe run Tiger in VMWare?
[19:57] <mar2> tonyyarusso: oops
[19:57] <jess3> sebsebseb if i screwed up my video driver whats the fastest way to repair it ?
[19:57] <mar2> tonyyarusso: no it doesn't...it generates this:mark@mark-desktop:~$ mount
[19:57] <mar2> /dev/sda5 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro)
[19:57] <mar2> proc on /proc type proc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)

[19:57] <flaco> I'm trying to get video feed in totem.. but I get this... http://dpaste.com/25748/ any ideas?
[19:58] <sebsebseb> jess3: you can try restarting xorg, as well as  doing a recovery of it.  from recovery mode in the bootloader
[19:58] <tonyyarusso> mar2: and you were looking for sda2?  It's not mounted right now then, so you should be able to run fsck on it without a live cd.
[19:58] <Syntux> barf, that would be an idea that I should dig further
[19:58] <sebsebseb> jess3: yeah recovery mode sort xorg out liket hat, and  things will work again
[19:58] <jess3> sebsebseb i mean screwed as in removed by a dumb mistake
[19:58] <barf> Syntux: That’s how I do it when I have to
[19:58] <Lartza_> I've got ubuntu gateway! :)
[19:58] <jess3> sebsebseb i mean screwed as in removed by a dumb mistake, overwritten with the driver for a wrong vid card
[19:59] <sebsebseb> jess3: well  sort out xorg in recovery mode again,and you will then have the option to put the driver back on
[19:59] <barf> But usually I just attach the HFS+ disks to a Mac and mount them over the LAN
[19:59] <barf> or WAN if need be
[19:59] <erUSUL> barf: hfsa and hfs+ are read-write drivers in linux
[19:59] <jess3> sweet thx
[19:59] <barf> erUSUL: but stable?
[19:59] <Lartza_> THank you all for helping me set it up
[19:59] <sebsebseb> jess3: yeah so good luck,  and  you need to re boot  and go into that mode
[19:59] <barf> and for production use?
[19:59] <Lartza_> Bye now
[19:59] <bo7amny> how can i run a python script in vim ?
[20:00] <Syntux> barf, Steve Jobs should invent the iLiveMac Cd hehe
[20:00] <mar2> tonyyarusso: this was amongst what was pasted: /dev/sda2 on /home type ext3 (rw,relatime). Is this refering to my linux home partition and is it unmounted?
[20:00] <barf> I can make 1 .-p
[20:00] <barf> I can make a LiveTigerDVD...
[20:00] <tonyyarusso> mar2: correct
[20:00] <erUSUL> barf: dunno but this 20:57 < barf> I only know that HFS+ is readonly from linux, unless somebody made a discovery
[20:00] <erUSUL> barf: is not true as you worded it
[20:01] <barf> It has write, but last time I checked it was strongly recommended not to do so.
[20:01] <Syntux> barf, make one only with their terminal and disk utilities, that would save lives
[20:01] <barf> Darwin you mean?
[20:01] <Pici> !ot
[20:01] <mar2> tonyyarusso: but if i can access files in my home folder does it not mean it is mounted?
[20:02] <tonyyarusso> mar2: it would, yes.  Seems like you're giving inconsisten info.
[20:02] <Geoffrey2> hiya folks, I've recently encountered a problem where I am getting no audio when watching flash videos through Firefox (Ubuntu 8.10 / Firefox 3.0.8)
[20:02] <tonyyarusso> mar2: oh, the sda2 line must have been muted by the bot.
[20:02] <apol_> hi, I am trying to configure an laptop that has an iwlagn-based wifi card and it doesn't have an interruptor for wifi but I can see in "dmesg" that the rfkill module is saying all the time that it is disabled
[20:02] <barf> Hmm, one more person with the same question as me: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=649314
[20:02] <apol_> any clue?
[20:02] <mar2> tonyyarusso: by the way i am running xp as my primary os as i'm not quite confident enough in linux yet :)
[20:03] <tonyyarusso> mar2: unmount it first, then run fsck on it.  Since it's just /home you can do it with the system up.
[20:03] <gauravkittz> can sm1 tell me any good desktop client for identi.ca
[20:03] <mar2> tonyyarusso: oh yeah i pasted in what the mount command returned in the terminal and it sort of flooded the channel
[20:03] <botux1> sebsebseb: know a good program for pdf creation and viewing
[20:03] <erUSUL> barf: the kernel docs (kconfig help and bits under Documentation/filesystem/ do not make any warnings
[20:03] <mar2> tonyyarusso: i thought everyone could see that hence my apology
[20:04] <sebsebseb> !pdf |  botux`
[20:04] <sebsebseb> botux1: above
[20:04] <barf> Syntux: erUSUL points out that the hfs_plus issue might be fixed
[20:04] <mar2> tonyyarusso: cool sounds good. how do i unmount it?
[20:04] <botux1> oh ok
[20:04] <tonyyarusso> mar2: sudo umount /home
[20:04] <adnc> hello, i've installed python 3 but when i start python it runs version 2.5 . how can i get python 3 to be run?
[20:04]  * RedMushroom throws a fit and starts smashing his head on his desk
[20:04] <tonyyarusso> adnc: the command will probably be python3 or python3.0
[20:05] <tonyyarusso> adnc: possibly with a hyphen - use tab-complete to se
[20:05] <tonyyarusso> e
[20:05] <Syntux> barf, erUSUL oh, really?
[20:05] <mar2> tonyyarusso: so the home folder definitely refers to a linux partition? I'm just worried that i do something that kills one of my xp partitions
[20:05] <RedMushroom> I HATE EVERYTHING!!!
[20:05] <moller_> How do I see if my Ubuntu is 32 bit or 64 bit?
[20:05] <barf> Syntux: you can probably compile it as a module then
[20:05] <tonyyarusso> mar2: you'll be fine :)
[20:05] <sebsebseb> !release |  moller_
[20:05] <sebsebseb> !version |  moller_
[20:05] <dcherniv> moller_: uname -a
[20:05] <adnc> tonyyarusso: thank you, i know, but i've library that i would like to compile and the configure script is looking for python > 2.5 so it doesnt find
[20:06] <sebsebseb> dcherniv: that's only the kernel
[20:06]  * RedMushroom has to reinstall
[20:06] <mar2> tonyyarusso: thanks :) ok it says unmount command not found
[20:06] <erUSUL> Syntux: barf the only warning i see is about fs that are journaled
[20:06] <tonyyarusso> adnc: See if there's a variable you can pass to configure for the path.
[20:06] <coz_> lsb_release -a doesnt show  32 or 64 bit
[20:06] <tonyyarusso> mar2: umount, not unmount - no N.
[20:06] <ikonia> coz_: uname -a will
[20:06] <adnc> tonyyarusso: thank you
[20:06] <dcherniv> sebsebseb: if your kernel is 64 bit then your system is 64 bit
[20:06] <barf> erUSUL: That’s the one :-)
[20:06] <coz_> ok
[20:06] <barf> Told ya!
[20:06] <moller_> sebsebseb: How do I run that=?
[20:07] <sebsebseb> dcherniv: I don't think uname -r  usaully says about that, but then I am on 32bit
[20:07] <mar2> tonyyarusso: hehe sorry...ok it says home device is busy
[20:07] <ikonia> uname -m shows the arch
[20:07] <dcherniv> sebsebseb: uname -a
[20:07] <sebsebseb> moller_: in the terminal    applications > assesories > terminal
[20:07] <Shappie> Can somebody help me make a dualscreen setup with fglrx drivers? (ATi HD3850 and kubuntu 9.04)
[20:07] <Syntux> life sucks
[20:07] <Syntux> heh
[20:07] <ikonia> Shappie: 9.04 discussion in #ubuntu+1 please
[20:07] <Shappie> ikonia: ok
[20:07] <moller_> Okay, so I seem to have 64 bit, as uname -m returns: 1686, right?
[20:07] <ikonia> moller_: no
[20:07] <Burntresistor> sbackup created files i cannot move nor delete they just want to sit on my desktop  is there anything i can do about it i dont like the clutter
[20:07] <szajbus> hello
[20:07] <ikonia> moller_: tell us what you have
[20:07] <dcherniv> moller_: nope thats 32bit
[20:08] <szajbus> i have problem with deskopot
[20:08] <moller_> Wierd.
[20:08] <coz_> moller_, no that is 32 bit
[20:08] <erUSUL> Syntux: to mount the filesystem read writte you have to pass the "force" option to mount
[20:08] <coz_> moller_,  actually uname -m  would do it
[20:09] <sebsebseb> ikonia: ok good to know
[20:09] <coz_> moller_,  and i686 is 32 bit
[20:09] <tonyyarusso> mar2: You'll need to quit the things that are using your login.  You should be able to accomplish that by pressing Ctrl-Alt-F1 to drop to a terminal, running 'sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop' to kill your X session, and then doing 'sudo -i' to become root for a while, which I think will then free up your user.
[20:09] <erUSUL> Syntux: force Used to force write access to volumes that are marked as journalled or locked.  Use at your own risk.
[20:09] <moller_> Oh that's bad. When I was using Ubuntu for fun, I used Wubi and it installed 64 bit, but then I installed Ubuntu completely, and now I have 32 bit. Would I have to get a new iso for 64 bit?
[20:09] <tonyyarusso> mar2: If that doesn't work you can reboot into single-user mode instead.
[20:09] <coz_> moller_,  yes
[20:09] <moller_> Wubi 64 bit worked fine.
[20:09] <Syntux> erUSUL, what's the worse thing that would happen ?
[20:09] <sebsebseb> moller_: apparnatlly your on 32bit, and so you do 32bit Ubuntu not 64bit
[20:10] <coz_> moller_,  you would have to donwload the 64 bit  iso
[20:10] <erUSUL> Syntux: dunno; never used it. just exposing the options you have
[20:10] <sebsebseb> moller_: also for various reasons I woudn't normalley recommend wubi
[20:10] <tonyyarusso> mar2: or, it may still let you do a remount as read-only instead of unmounting entirely.  (check the mount/umount man pages for details on the syntax for that)
[20:10] <moller_> sebsebseb: Wubi 64 bit worked fine, so would you recommend me to use 64 bit?
[20:10] <sebsebseb> moller_: how much RAM?
[20:10] <erUSUL> Syntux: do a little googling about it
[20:10] <Syntux> erUSUL, I have nothing to lose other than that client ;) I'm gonna do it if I fail with what virtualbox.
[20:10] <thewrath> hey how do i move a wubi install to native and how do i redo my partitions?
[20:10] <Syntux> erUSUL, Sure. Thank you man
[20:11] <Syntux> barf, Thanks :-)
[20:11] <coz_> moller_,   go here   http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download  scroll down and tick the 64 bit version
[20:11] <sebsebseb> thewrath: may I suggest just waiting to 9.04 and clean installing that with  Ext4 partitions, and getting rid of Wubi before doing so
[20:11] <thewrath> sebsebseb: but how do i redo my partitions
[20:11] <thewrath> i haev the beta
[20:11] <moller_> sebsebseb: This is kinda embarrasing, but how do I check it?
[20:12] <woodefec> hi, what is the clipboard manager (like klipper) for GNMOME?
[20:12] <sebsebseb> moller_: there is a command, but it gives geekey output, and I am not sure what the command is heh
[20:12] <moller_> sebsebseb: Would it be memory? Then it's 2gb
[20:12] <ikonia> moller_: what do you want to check ?
[20:12] <sebsebseb> ikonia: he wants to know how much RAM he has now
[20:12] <moller_> ikonia: Ram, but I think I've found it, if it's memory
[20:13] <ikonia> free -h or top, or cat /proc/meminfo
[20:13] <ikonia> sorry free -m
[20:13] <coz_> woodefec,  do you mean what it is named?
[20:14] <moller_> sebsebseb: Would I be able to use 64 bit with only 2GiB ram?
[20:14] <GodfatherofEire> How would I go about loading a driver module to the kernel?
[20:14] <sebsebseb> moller_: if you have a 64bit compatible proccessor, but  people say  not worth bothering with 64bit unless you have 4GB or more RAM
[20:15] <ikonia> moller_: the ram is not a factor to if you "can" use 64bit - why do you "want" to use 64bit ix the key factor
[20:15] <CrawfordComeaux> I'm not sure what the fs is on my external 1TB hd and don't really want to load it up in windows because I suspect it may have a virus on it.  Any suggestions on how to get it mount under 8.10 livecd?
[20:16] <ikonia> moller_: and does your processor "support" 64bit is the limiting factor
[20:16] <moller_> sebsebseb: Ahh okay. Well the main reason for this is that I just tried to install the nVidia driver 180.44, but it kinda messed it all up (I did download the 32bit driver)
[20:16] <ikonia> CrawfordComeaux: just mount it - ubuntu should detect it for you
[20:16] <thewrath> how do i redo my partitions wehn i allready have windows?
[20:16] <CrawfordComeaux> ikonia: it isn't
[20:16] <ikonia> moller_: you're using 32bit ubuntu - so thats not a problem
[20:16] <barf> I am trying to run XDMCP or whatever it’s called from Mac to Ubuntu
[20:16] <sebsebseb> moller_: yeah 32bit drivers won't work with 64bit kernels, as far as I know
[20:16] <ikonia> CrawfordComeaux: what command did you do
[20:16] <wim> sdk
[20:16] <barf> but keyboard is on the wrong planet
[20:16] <gauravkittz> any one on identi.ca... need to know a good desktop client for it
[20:16] <moller_> sebsebseb: Oh crap.
[20:17] <moller_> sebsebseb: How do I check what kernal I have lol?
[20:17] <sebsebseb> moller_: uname - r
[20:17] <sebsebseb> moller_: uname -r
[20:17] <moller_> sebsebseb: Returns: <IP_ADDRESS>-generic.
[20:17] <moller_> sebsebseb: Could you translate that? :P
[20:17] <ikonia> moller_: no it doesn't
[20:17] <sebsebseb> moller_: sounds like 32bit to me
[20:18] <ikonia> moller_: uname -m is correct
[20:18] <CrawfordComeaux> sudo mount /dev/sdc /external/media (sdc1 not available). also tried -t autofs, xfs, ntfs, hfsplus, vfat.  also tried disabling ehci_hcd before connecting.
[20:18] <ikonia> sebsebseb: how can you tell if thats 32bit  ?
[20:18] <ikonia> sebsebseb: that's just a kernel name - how can you tell it's 32bit
[20:18] <moller_> ikonia: Well im trying to check my kernal
[20:18] <sebsebseb> ikonia: that's what I thought to, but someone earlier said it would say if it was 64bit
[20:18] <ikonia> sebsebseb: I said the command is "uname -m"
[20:18] <coz_> moller_,  yes   uname -r is kernel version and uname -m is architeture type
[20:19] <GodfatherofEire> How would I go about loading a driver module to the kernel?
