[06:57] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: Basically, I have about 200 music files from different albums, into my own compilation. But when I try to retag the album to say 'My Album', about 25 of the files didn't change
[06:57] <Darksoul_> MikeTheC: It's pretty damn stable. It must be a read/write error with the HDD.
[06:57] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: ok checking something
[06:57] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: even though they are in fact, correctly tagged
[06:58] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: that should make more sense
[06:58] <drumstyk1> can anyone actually read my chats?
[06:58] <tyso1> drumstyk i hera you
[06:58] <waan> drumstyk1: yep
[06:58] <drowner> EvilTchnlgy_: i'll brb in 2 seconds
[06:58] <Darksoul_> MikeTheC: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227248
[06:58] <drumstyk1> ok good... thanks
[06:58] <_2> rfxcasey did you comprehend what actionparsnips was saying about the $PWD ?
[06:58] <Darksoul_> MikeTheC: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103773
[06:59] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: some of the tags are fine though? i would point you to the solutions for a bug that has easytag write a different id3 version but it shouldnt work on any of them at restart of rhytmbox in that case...
[06:59] <_2> drumstyk1 yes.
[06:59] <rfxcasey> _2 I donno the link points to /home/rfxcasey/Games/vegastrike/bin/vegastrike-64
[06:59] <Shakedown> So is xinerama something that I need to install or is it basically some mode/setting that I turn on in my xorg.conf?
[06:59] <sap> Hi, How do I forcibly stop a cd-drive which is constantly trying to access a cd and prevents me from ejecting it ?
[06:59] <drowner> ok, so i'm back
[07:00] <drumstyk1> is it illegal to offer paypal money for help?
[07:00] <rfxcasey> _2, The file being vegastrike-64
[07:00] <_2> rfxcasey but executing the file /home/rfxcasey/Games/vegastrike/bin/vegastrike-64 from within ~/Desktop/
[07:00] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: because i know rhytmbox uses id3 v2,4 and easytag uses 2.3
[07:00] <msshams> hi, i am sorry but can i find a channel about window$
[07:00] <MikeTheC> Darksoul_: So you've got your CPU pushed about 250MHz over, then. Right?
[07:00] <Isendur> Having a little trouble understanding the ubuntu bible near page 192. As I understand it, I would need cp /home/isendur/Desktop/new_file.txt /home/isendur/Desktop/new_file_2.txt to copy txts?
[07:01] <Darksoul_> MikeTheC: thats correct, because according to the reviews you can't run the 800Mhz ram at the correct speed if its at 3.0Ghz
[07:01] <rfxcasey> _2, how do you know the difference and how do you change that then
[07:01] <_2> rfxcasey i.e. you may want to use a wraper that will " cd /home/rfxcasey/Games/vegastrike/bin/ ;./vegastrike-64 "
[07:01] <HymnToLife> !windows | msshams
[07:01] <EvilTchnlgy_> darksoul: i've missed most of your discussion, but if you oced did you try restting your cmos jumper to see if the cpu clockspeed reset helped?
[07:01] <EvilTchnlgy_> darksould: if it's a power issue...
[07:01] <rfxcasey> _2 how do I impliment that
[07:01] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I've just stripped all the tags for that entire album and checked in amarok (they all say unknown), and when I import them into rhythmbox it still has info for the same 30 files.
[07:01] <macvr> hi ... anyone knows of a chat program that allows me to connect to google chat , yahoo messenger with both voice and video calls?
[07:01] <_2> rfxcasey try dropping that "without the qutation marks" into a text file, make it executable and run it.
[07:02] <Darksoul_> EvilTchnlgy_: It's not the clockspeed. This happened at 3.0Ghz as well.
[07:02] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: kk 1 sec
[07:02] <msshams> HymnToLife: thank you
[07:02] <Isendur> Having a little trouble understanding the ubuntu bible near page 192. As I understand it, I would need cp /home/isendur/Desktop/new_file.txt /home/isendur/Desktop/new_file_2.txt to copy txts?
[07:02] <EvilTchnlgy_> darksoul: o ok, how did u manage to set it back? are u getting to POST?
[07:02] <sd32> i just discovered mobalivecd ...wow thats cool
[07:02] <badserii> Hi! when will be available for update the new kernel (	2.6.27)?
[07:03] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: thanks for your help, i'm just out of ideas but it must be something wrong with rhythmbox
[07:03] <Darksoul_> EvilTchnlgy_:.. im running a livecd on the system, the only times I had issues with POST is when I tried raising the clock speed on the intergrated graphics to far.
[07:03] <badserii> I mean, for upgrade
[07:03] <_2> rfxcasey i'm not sure that this is the issue you are having. i just got here.  but that was what actionparsnips was telling you when he left.   just thought i would follow up on that.
[07:03] <Shakedown> How do I know if I have a xinerama-aware window manager?
[07:03] <slambert> ActionParsnip: going through this bug - it's a bitch
[07:03] <Stupendoussteve> Shakedown, what is your wm?
[07:04] <Shakedown> I don't know, I Just got my comp yesterday
[07:04] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: yousnaid you already tried deleting ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/rhythmdb.xml?
[07:04] <Shakedown> GNOME?
[07:04] <Stupendoussteve> In that case, are you in gnome?
[07:04] <Stupendoussteve> Gnome is
[07:04] <EvilTchnlgy_> darksoul: did you run a smart check on your hd?
[07:04] <SexyKen> Guys - I've got an issue maybe ya'll can help with?  I've got screenlets installed, but I'm running dual monitors with separate X screens.  I want screenlets to start on the 2nd screen..but they're starting on the first screen.  So I edited the Session command that starts them to include DISPLAY=:0.1 (the 2nd screen) and it didn't show up at all....anyone have any ideas?
[07:04] <Darksoul_> EvilTchnlgy_: I believe I have smart off in BIOS, but yes I used seagate tools. Everything reported OK
[07:04] <Shakedown> So is GNOME a xinerama-aware window manager?
[07:05] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: yep
[07:05] <Isendur> Having a little trouble understanding the ubuntu bible near page 192. As I understand it, I would need cp /home/isendur/Desktop/new_file.txt /home/isendur/Desktop/new_file_2.txt to copy txts?
[07:05] <Stupendoussteve> Shakedown, most of it should be
[07:05] <EvilTchnlgy_> darksoul: so. (sorry i started reading about your issue late) yous aid you ps get loud and youg et hd errors when you try to access it?
[07:05] <Stupendoussteve> Shakedown, xinerama aware just means it doesn't open windows in the middle of two screens and stuff
[07:05] <Darksoul_> EvilTchnlgy_: No, my HDD errors after I restart.
[07:05] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I removed all rhythmbox files in .gnome/apps and .gconf/apps and rebooted, still the same
[07:06] <Shakedown> Oh. So is xinerama a package that I need to get or is it some mode/setting that I turn on in my xorg.conf file? I'm trying to set up dual-heads by the way
[07:06] <airtonix> Isendur, yes thats the convention
[07:06] <kubuntu_> hellow, somebody knows if exist a IRC channel for kubuntu support in Spanish???????
[07:06] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: puzzling, im looking/thinking
[07:06] <Isendur> Okay when I type in the command through terminal, it tells me the file or directory doesn't exist, but I can clearly see that its there
[07:06] <airtonix> Isendur, you can also subsitute /home/isendur for ~/
[07:07] <Shakedown> kubuntu_: Start with #kubuntu perhaps? Ask there
[07:07] <rfxcasey> _2 ok I'm trying that
[07:07] <SexyKen> Anyone got any ideas?
[07:07] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I know, it makes no sense
[07:07] <_2> Isendur pwd is not in the path on default linux systems.
[07:07] <airtonix> Isendur, try useing tab completion maybe there are some characters your not seeing properly
[07:07] <Darksoul_> Brb, going to restart and change my FSB from 217 to 214, see if that helps.
[07:07] <drowner> EvilTchnlgy_: It's gotten worse
[07:07] <kubuntu_> ok, xD, is that this program automatic puts me in this channel
[07:07] <drumstyk1> i hate to have a negative attitude but i can't seem to get any help with a static IP.  I've tried begging and offering money but with no luck.  :-(
[07:07] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I'm guessing there is a rogue file somewhere with this info in it
[07:07] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: o i didn't think of this. do you have libary watching on in your preferences?
[07:07] <drowner> now that i can't mount it, i don't know how to change the volume details so it mounts again
[07:08] <drowner> if you know what i mean
[07:08] <Isendur> Alright gimme a sec
[07:08]  * GM-Cosmo_PW gives Isendur Dorian Grey's picture
[07:08] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: Tried on and off, it doesn't correct the names.

[07:08] <_2> Isendur ./ <<< $PWD   pwd is not in the path.   supply  ./'name_of.file'
[07:08] <Shakedown> kubuntu_: try /join #kubuntu
[07:08] <pantaloon> Can someone help me set my default video player to VLC instead of Totem? I changed it under System->Preferences->Preferred Applications to 'custom' and 'vlc' but it still opens up totem :(
[07:08] <rfxcasey> _2, the file I made isn't working right
[07:08] <macvr>  hi ... anyone knows of a chat program that allows me to connect to google chat , yahoo messenger with both voice and video calls?
[07:09] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: in theory, when its on, it should reread the id3s of anything with a more recent date modified....
[07:09] <_2> rfxcasey show me the content
[07:09] <EvilTchnlgy_> drowner: don't worry i haven't forgotten about you =0
[07:09] <airtonix> pantaloon, you need to right click on each video file type you have and view the properties dialouge box then goto the 'open with' tab and set it to vlc
[07:09] <drumstyk1> pantaloon: right-click on vlc and click properties and copy that command line to your pref apps command line
[07:09] <chaddy> macvr: you might get all that on trillian, certainly wikipedia has a page comparing merits of messenger apps
[07:09] <slambert> ugh, anyone have any ideas about this problem at startup?  "kinit: No resume image, doing normal reboot..."
[07:09] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I know :(
[07:09] <msshams> have i any problem with ubuntu if i install windows 2003 server beside that?
[07:10] <Isendur> isendur@isendur-desktop:~$ cp /home/galens/Desktop/new file /home/galens/Desktop/new file 2
[07:10] <Isendur> cp: target `2' is not a directory
[07:10] <_2> msshams have to reinstall the boot loader.  shouldn't be any other trouble
[07:10] <macvr> i dont have it in the repos! so i was guessing there might be something in the repos that does that?
[07:10] <rfxcasey> _2 I think I know what I did I saved it as an Abi word doc instead of plain text....I am pretty new at all this
[07:10] <macvr> chaddy:  i dont have it in the repos! so i was guessing there might be something in the repos that does that?
[07:10] <_2> Isendur white space will have to be quoted or escaped.
[07:11] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I'm the only user on the system, I checked /root incase there was rhythmbox info in there, nothing
[07:11] <chaddy> you're asking for a lot of features, go compare them on wikipedia, macvr
[07:11] <kervel> hello, is it possible that networkmanager in intrepid is broken since yesterday ?
[07:11] <_2> rfxcasey yes needs to be plain text.
[07:11] <_2> Isendur '/home/galens/Desktop/new file'   or  /home/galens/Desktop/new\ file
[07:11] <kervel> yesterday it worked perfectly, when i booted this morning it found no devices (but the devices are there according to ifconfig)
[07:11] <chaddy> macvr: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_instant_messaging_clients
[07:11] <Isendur> Thanks, it worked
[07:11] <Isendur> ""
[07:12] <pantaloon> drumstyk1, I tried and it still launches Totem
[07:12] <holyguyver> I have a problem with apt-get that apt-fix is not fixing.
[07:12] <rfxcasey> _2, hey one good question I am using xchat, don't know if you ever used it but I can't seem to copy words out of the chat
[07:12] <_2> !tab > Isendur
[07:12] <pantaloon> airtonix, is there a reason preferred applications doesn't work? :(
[07:12] <macvr> chaddy: i thought tht some else might be using it and could give a feedback... i was actually looking at that page before i asked :) oh.. well i better digg it out myself! :)
[07:12] <Shakedown> Where's my xorg.conf file? I can't find it under xorg directory
[07:13] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: can you do me a favor? can you try taking one of the files that havent changed and editing the id3 info in rhytmbox instead of easytag and see if that makes a difference?
[07:13] <airtonix> pantaloon, well maybe it doesnt understand how to query vlc on what filetypes vlc can use ...
[07:13] <pantaloon> preferred applications worked fine when totem wasn't installed
[07:13] <rfxcasey> _2, Oh I got it I just cntl c then cntl v
[07:13] <airtonix> pantaloon, im on hardy and totem is installed by default
[07:13] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: my guess is that the files that the files that have id3 tags 2.4 and an earlier are being edited bye asytag int he earlier id3 while rhythmbox is reading the later id3 version
[07:13] <_2> rfxcasey the Linux way would be to highlight them with the mouse  "may need to hold down the shift to do that"   then select the place you want to paste them, and  middle (or both on two button mice)
[07:13] <EvilTchnlgy_> *by easytag
[07:14] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: Yep, they just revert to their original tag when I close rhythmbox
[07:14] <pantaloon> totem is hijacking my system, but i need it for video thumbnails in nautilus
[07:14] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: no wait, rhythmbox won't let me change any tags
[07:14] <drumstyk1> pantaloon: try going into the properties of the actual video file and change it to VLC under the "open with" tab... that's the only other thing i can think of
[07:14] <airtonix> pantaloon, as far as i know totem uses gstreamer where vlc does not, so that may be why totem was able to honour the settings in preferred apps
[07:14] <rfxcasey> _2 ok cool linux can be a little frustrating at times
[07:15] <Shakedown> Where's my xorg.conf file? I can't find it under xorg directory and 'whereis xorg.conf' doesn't return anything
[07:15] <meyos> I've been having trouble all day long can someone check his error in pastebin. thank you.
[07:15] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: ahh here we are.... getting closer =)
[07:15] <DIFH-iceroot> Shakedown: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:15] <rfxcasey> _2 oh wow that is awesome
[07:15] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: as an extreme, you could use http://eyed3.nicfit.net/ (eyed3) to edit the id3 tags as it suports v 2.4
[07:15] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: yep i've tried a few, they all won't let me change
[07:15] <rfxcasey> _2 really easy
[07:15] <_2> rfxcasey i have told many.  if you are brand new to linux.  forget everything you think you know about computers.  because that assumed knowledge will only get in the way.
[07:15] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: but you would need pythonand there may be another solution
[07:16] <faileas> anyone here's used mondo before? i'm baffled to why after burning backup cd 1 its burning another cd 1
[07:16] <_2> rfxcasey welcome.
[07:16] <meyos> http://paste.ubuntu.com/56905/  this the list errors im getting, i put them in the pastebin
[07:16] <Shakedown> Thanks
[07:16] <drowner> EvilTchnlgy_: update: I used gconfeditor to remove the label I made, and am now able to mount it. Not where i want though. I don't actually know if its possible
[07:16] <Shakedown> why can't 'whereis xorg.conf' find that?
[07:16] <rfxcasey> _2,  yea I grew up with dos and windows
[07:16] <airtonix> Shakedown, try using : locate xorg.conf next time
[07:16] <rfxcasey> _2 I just need a tutor and I could be good
[07:17] <RandomIP> rdxcasey: You dont need a tutor
[07:17] <failure> does anybody want to take a look at my sudoers file? im trying to tighten the security around developers workstations so they cant change the root password, create local users and groups.
[07:17] <failure> the only other thing i can think of
[07:17] <failure> [23:14] <airtonix> pantaloon, as far as i know totem uses gstreamer where vlc does not, so that may be why totem was able to honour the settings in preferred apps
[07:17] <failure> [23:14] <rfxcasey> _2 ok cool linux can be a little frustrating at times
[07:17] <failure> [23:14] * msshams<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has left #ubuntu
[07:17] <FloodBot3> failure: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:17] <failure> [23:15] <Shakedown> Where's my xorg.conf file? I can't find it under xorg directory and 'whereis xorg.conf' doesn't return anything
[07:17] <airtonix> rfxcasey, if you knew dos then it should be too much of a stretch to go in to linux...just be glad you have that experience
[07:17] <_2> rfxcasey me too but about 9 years ago i broke free, and haven't looked back sense.    and there are about a thousand tutors on freenode  :)
[07:17] <EvilTchnlgy_> drowner: where ARE you trying yto mount it again?
[07:17] <drowner> ~/Music/linux-music
[07:17] <failure> oh jeez i am so sorry
[07:17] <drowner> which is the name of the partition in question
[07:17] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: so it seems rhythmbox has made it's own tags in these files that nothing else can read
[07:17] <Shakedown> airtonix: what's the difference between whereis and locate?
[07:18] <pantaloon> failure, actually i've got totem-xine installed
[07:18] <Shakedown> I guess that doesn't need to be directed at you airtonix
[07:18] <drowner> now, I know i can use fstab. BUt that doesn't seem right, consider it's not always connected
[07:18] <airtonix> Shakedown, not to sure to be honest...ill find out
[07:18] <goldmetal> how to connect to ftp via command line? i need to put in password too and username
[07:18] <Phantomas> Do i need to configure iptables to make vsftpd work? I have allready opened the port 21 on my router
[07:18] <drumstyk1> pantaloon: any luck?
[07:18] <DIFH-iceroot> Shakedown: locate uses a database for all the files (type "updatedb" to index the new files)
[07:18] <failure> does anybody want to take a look at my sudoers file? im trying to tighten the security around developers workstations so they cant change the root password, create local users and groups. http://pastebin.ca/1225675
[07:19] <_2> failure sure i'll give it a once over
[07:19] <EvilTchnlgy_> drowner: why not try mounting it to /media/linux-music
[07:19] <Shakedown> uses a database? Doesn't it just browse over my HDD looking for matches?
[07:19] <airtonix> Shakedown, this is a basic starting point on that topic : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FindingFiles
[07:19] <rfxcasey> _2 ok so this file I created works great, but if I want a menu item do I just create a link to the launch file? That seems kind of cluncky. And where do I keep these launch files in a special directory for the like
[07:19] <_2> rfxcasey yes
[07:19] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: wel it jsut supports a newer tag version than most program can read
[07:19] <DIFH-iceroot> goldmetal: type ftp, then open, then ftp://user:password@host
[07:19] <drowner> EvilTchnlgy_: I could do that!
[07:19] <Rando_> My firefox froze on me and it won't relaunch as there is a firefox process running. I've tried to "kill" and "kill -9" the pid, but neither seems to wanna knock it out. Is there anything else I can try aside from a reboot?
[07:19] <drowner> in fact, that's where it is mounted right now ;)
[07:19] <DIFH-iceroot> goldmetal: or use ncftp, its a nice command-line client
[07:20] <drowner> I was just wondering if it COULD be mounted somewhere else
[07:20] <DIFH-iceroot> goldmetal: ncftp ftp://user:password@host
[07:20] <chaddy> docal: killall or pkill
[07:20] <drowner> if it can't, that's cool ;)
[07:20] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: but why won't it modify it's own tags?
[07:20] <_2> rfxcasey you can use /usr/local/bin   if you want all acounts to access them  if you want to keep them private you can use ~/bin
[07:20] <docal> chaddy: Neither of those did the job =(
[07:21] <rfxcasey> _2,  well what is the standard practice for this type of thing? Meaning what is this type of file called normally
[07:21] <chaddy> docal: prepend sudo
[07:21] <EvilTchnlgy_> back, sorry, phone rang (kinda weird at 2:30 i  know haha)
[07:21] <Shakedown> Hm, so it looks like 'locate' should be the first choice
[07:21] <Shakedown> Thanks airtonix
[07:21] <DIFH-iceroot> Shakedown: yes
[07:21] <_2> rfxcasey /usr/local/bin is in the default path  and on some distros they put a default addition to the path if it detects ~/bin   so you can use the name without full path.    and standard is   what ever suits you.
[07:21] <docal> chaddy, still no go =(
[07:22] <yamamoto> hello all
[07:22] <failure> _2 comments?
[07:22] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: you know what is weird, Nautillus reports the old id3 info also
[07:22] <_2> failure i must have missed the url  ?
[07:22] <Shakedown> (Rhetorical) Why is Amarok so cool?
[07:22] <EvilTchnlgy_> drowner: what is the error you try to get when you mount?
[07:22] <chaddy> docal: you could try from top, think that just sends kill -9, though
[07:22] <rfxcasey> _2 I am just asking is this file called a link, launcher, bin, kickstart?
[07:22] <yamamoto> does somebody know how to configure Nginx for static files serving?
[07:22] <failure> http://pastebin.ca/1225675
[07:22] <pantaloon> drumstyk1, that did it. PITA though, because I'll have to do that for every video filetype.
[07:22] <rfxcasey> _2 script?
[07:22] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: yea, different id3 versions coexist
[07:23] <chaddy> docal: you could just log out and back in again
[07:23] <_2> rfxcasey called an executable, scrupt, wraper   depending on who is calling it  "_
[07:23] <docal> I suppose so
[07:23] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I just stripped all the tags though, using easytag and also id3-tag-it
[07:23] <docal> i'll just do that
[07:23] <docal> thanks
[07:23] <Phantomas> Do i need to configure iptables to make vsftpd work? I have allready opened the port 21 on my router
[07:23] <chaddy> no worries
[07:23] <rfxcasey> _2 ok wrapper sounds good I will stick with that
[07:23] <drowner> EvilTchnlgy_: I've got it to mount now. It's a known 'bug' - if you put a / in the mountpoint, it can't mount. You can only specify a mountpoint like 'chicken', in which case it will mount to /media/chicken
[07:23] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: well tats the thing, easytag cant strip id3 v2.4 tags..
[07:23] <_2> failure i got it that time.   looking.
[07:23] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: so it will strip all the other tags, see?
[07:23] <drowner> you need to use gconfeditor to remove the incorrect entry.
[07:23] <RandomIP> Phantoms if you dont have port 20 open it wont work i belive
[07:24] <macvr> docal: checked system monitor?
[07:24] <goldmetal> DIFH-iceroot, ok i am trying. thx
[07:24] <EvilTchnlgy_> drowner: ahh thank you. learned something new =)
[07:24] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: yeah, but I still have a few files with these new tags, that nothing can read
[07:24] <rfxcasey> _2, hey can you hang for a second, while I got your attention I would like to ask you a couple of questions that have been nagging me.
[07:24] <EvilTchnlgy_> I would install the link i poster earlier, or finda nother program that can edit id3 v2.4
[07:25] <EvilTchnlgy_> illt ake a look to se if I can fine one
[07:25] <jim_p> does linux support crossfire or sli?
[07:25] <failure> jim_p hell. yes..
[07:25] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: even winamp
[07:25] <jim_p> good
[07:26] <RandomIP> jim_p: Only if you remove your CMOS battery before every boot.
[07:26] <jim_p> failure: because some guy told me that crossfire works only on vista! and sli also works in xp!
[07:26] <goldmetal> DIFH-iceroot, is there ls command? i am using ncftp
[07:26] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I'll see what itunes says
[07:26] <jim_p> RandomIP: why remove the battery?
[07:26] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: well im not sure what versions winamp supports. but its winamp. you would need yto either run windows in xen or a serperate box..
[07:27] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: or use wine, not sure of its level of support there
[07:27] <rfxcasey> _2 is there any easy way to graphically cut and paste as root without actually switching users
[07:27] <kernando> how can i get a flashplayer to work in opera?
[07:27] <jim_p> rfxcasey: gksudo nautilus --desktop
[07:27] <jim_p> ooooops
[07:27] <EvilTchnlgy_> !flash | kernando
[07:27] <jim_p> rfxcasey: gksudo nautilus --browser
[07:28] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I have rdp running with a shared folder
[07:28] <_2> rfxcasey don't cut/paste as root.    cut paste as user and edit as root if you must.    fastest way to make an oops is using too much root.
[07:28] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: ooo. well taht would work in theory if winamp supports id3 v2.4
[07:28] <mydrmeix> how can I enable the candy bar for clearlooks?
[07:28] <rfxcasey> _2 it don't give the option to paste as user
[07:28] <failure> _2 any ideas?
[07:28] <jim_p> kernando: the latest stable flash usually works on the latest stabe opera. if one of the 2 moves one version next, things bocome pear shaped
[07:28] <_2> failure sudo su is redundant   if they can sudo they can probably sudo -i   you might want to check that.
[07:29] <_2> failure i'm still looking.
[07:29] <meyos> can i fix cerain problems using the ubuntu cd?
[07:29] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: Ok, so both winamp and itunes both know there are no tags for those problem files
[07:29] <_2> rfxcasey what are you trying to paste into ?
[07:29] <kernando> hmm okk then
[07:29] <RandomIP> Meyos: You can fix all problems with the ubuntu CD
[07:29] <jim_p> meyos: depends on what you mean as "certain"
[07:29] <RandomIP> Reinstall
[07:29] <rfxcasey> /usr/local/bin
[07:29] <rfxcasey> _2, usr/local/bin
[07:29] <drowner> EvilTchnlgy_: Thx for your help. I don't actually know if this is possible, but i'll keep working at it.
[07:29] <_2> rfxcasey no.   just   sudo cp filename.sh  /usr/local/bin
[07:30] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: really they showed no tags at all?
[07:30] <meyos> i cant update anything
[07:30] <RandomIP> Meyos: What do you want to update?
[07:30] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: also mpg123, mplayer, amarok all say no tags
[07:30] <rfxcasey> _2 urgh soo much typing
[07:30] <jim_p> meyos: in the normal ubuntu installation?
[07:30] <goldmetal> DIFH-iceroot, thx, it's working
[07:30] <_2> rfxcasey only on admin stuff.
[07:30] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: something isn't rightthen. that wouldn't make sense assuming our earlier conclusion is true
[07:31] <_2> rfxcasey and we (the linux world) tend to like it that way.
[07:31] <amazingjxq> Someone know how to install xp? I used my entire hard disk to install ubuntu,now i want to make a dual boot system. but i can't install xp. Maybe something is wrong with mbr. How to fix this?
[07:31] <meyos> i cant update the system or install anything on it.
[07:31] <moidekar> amazingjxq, use VirtualBox to create a VM for Windows
[07:31] <meyos> i get an error, in the normal ubuntu
[07:31] <jim_p> meyos: are your repos configured properly? do you have an internet connection?
[07:31] <amazingjxq> I need real windows for some reason.
[07:32] <kernando> jim_p so you wouldnt recommend using opera??
[07:32] <EvilTchnlgy_> meyos: what error?
[07:32] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I'm almost 100% sure its some corrupted tag rhythmbox has made
[07:32] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: it has to be.. or somethinga tleast similar in nture to that
[07:32] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: but so far, only nautillus and rhythmbox can see the tags, but not modify them
[07:32] <_2> failure that's about all that jumps out at me.   just check on sudoers being able to sudo -i   and the rest looks pretty good.
[07:33] <jim_p> kernando: the problem is flash, not opera! opera guys do their best, flash !@#$^ things up
[07:33] <rfxcasey> _2, do you know where the icon are kept
[07:33] <failure> i dont want people doing sudo -i
[07:33] <ryth> how's everyone doing tonight?
[07:33] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: i know for a fact that itunes supports v2.4 so i dont know if that negates my earlier theory
[07:33] <moidekar> amazingjxq, parted may be able to resize your Ubuntu partition.
[07:33] <jim_p> failure: lock sudo!
[07:33] <_2> failure yes i know.  that's why i mentioned it.
[07:33] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: it does, if there are tags in those files, they aren't standard
[07:33] <faileas> moidekar: XP will wipe out grub. so.. it might end up being quite troublesome
[07:34] <kernando> jim_p i like opera better than firefox but i like to watch flash videos.. is there an alternate flash program i can install?
[07:34] <faileas> but reparitition, XP then fix grub has worked for me
[07:34] <jim_p> ryth: i am mad today. my little nephew draw a line with a pen on my precious eizo monitor
[07:34] <goldmetal> DIFH-iceroot, i am also trying ftp. it is ftp<enter>, open<enter> then ftp://user:password@host<enter>?
[07:34] <_2> faileas reinstalling grub is no problem
[07:34] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: OMG, I don't want to speak too soon, but I think I fixed it
[07:34] <moidekar> faileas, true, but then installing a dumb OS after a smart one is usually troublesome :-)
[07:34] <jim_p> kernando: gnash but it is like ancient and sites like youtube dont see you have flash and prompt you to reinstall
[07:35] <kernando> jim_p ii just installed flash according to that website but yeah like u said it just wont load videos at all
[07:35] <backslash7> Hi there
[07:35] <meyos> here is my error, i put it in pastebin, http://paste.ubuntu.com/56913/
[07:35] <faileas> _2: well its so much easier to plan ahead. partition then install *buntu over XP
[07:35] <rfxcasey> _2,  Ok so my I can't turn off my mic playback no matter what I do any idea what is up with that
[07:35] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: what do you think it was?
[07:35] <backslash7> I've got a really annoying prolem
[07:35] <_2> moidekar indeed installing a dumb os is troublesum ;/
[07:35] <jim_p> kernando: version of flash? opera version?
[07:35] <moidekar> faileas, probably after resizing and installing XP, OP should then boot Ubuntu DVD/CD, chroot to installed copy, and re-install GRUB - though that prob won't detect XP, will have to add manual option
[07:35] <legend2440> !hostname | meyos
[07:35] <moidekar> _2, :-)
[07:35] <kernando> jim_p i am not sure i installed them through the synaptic package manager
[07:36] <_2> rfxcasey terminal command    sudo alsamixer    hit the tab key and mute it.
[07:36] <jim_p> kernando: do you have firefox there?
[07:36] <legend2440> meyos: can you pastebin your /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname files?
[07:36] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: ok so I set my music directory to the album itself and checked "watch files". Now rhythmbox lets me modify the tags but when I press close it renames back
[07:36] <backslash7> I installed gtklib to develop C using GTK. I don't know if that's the reason for my problem, but since around then, my themes look really crappy, more specific my buttons are grey and not round anymore so I think it could be because of GTK.
[07:36] <_2> rfxcasey terminal command    sudo alsamixer    hit the tab key, select the mic and mute it.
[07:36] <kernando> jim_p flash is 9.0.124
[07:36] <backslash7> How do I reinstall Gnome completely?
[07:36] <kernando> jim_p i removed it
[07:36] <backslash7> All graphic stuff
[07:36] <kernando> a while ago
[07:36] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: so no its not fixed
[07:36] <jim_p> meyos: what is that "edgar" thing there? it seems you have a proxy problem
[07:37] <soreau> SexyKen: What card is listed in the output of 'lspci'?
[07:37] <kernando> jim_p flash is 9.0.124 and opera is 9.27
[07:37] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: dang.
[07:37] <jim_p> kernando: opera? only opera 9.60 is said to have corrected the problems that it had with flash 9.0.124
[07:38] <rfxcasey> _2 by mute do you mean make it 0
[07:38] <jim_p> kernando: use opera 9.60 and use a repo
[07:38] <_2> rfxcasey i mean hit the "M" button
[07:38] <meyos> i dont see the host files in etc?
[07:38] <kernando> jim_p alright ill try that out
[07:38] <jim_p> ok
[07:38] <meyos> jim_p: yeah, that edgar thing gots me too
[07:38] <rfxcasey> _2 isn't that muting the capture
[07:38] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: i would try to emulatethe issue but I'm on my windows box...
[07:39] <macvr> chaddy: trillian doesnt work with linux! but the alpha testin of trillian astra for linux seems to be an invite only !
[07:39] <jim_p> meyos: cat /etc/hosts
[07:39] <rfxcasey> _2 I just wanna mute the playback of the mic
[07:39] <_2> rfxcasey should only mute the column you have selected.
[07:39] <neeto> One of my SATA harddrives is malfunctioning. Is there a way to restart the SATA module (ahci.ko in this case) to try and jump-start the malfunctioning drive, without interfering with my well behaved SATA drives, also using ahci.ko?
[07:39] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I don't think you can, because I have no idea how it happened
[07:39] <scuser> hi all, what do I have to install to support the mount option sec=plain or sec=krb5i ?
[07:40] <rfxcasey> _2 under playback I only have master
[07:40] <_2> rfxcasey oh i see what you are saying.      "duh!"    </seniour moment>
[07:40] <EvilTchnlgy_> well i assume its either a bug in your version of easytag or rhythmbox
[07:40] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: maybe i'll delete the files and copy new ones in their places
[07:40] <jim_p> scuser: selinux
[07:40] <EvilTchnlgy_> waan: that should bea blt to telll you some of the nature of the issue if it persists
[07:40] <meyos> here is the hosts ---http://paste.ubuntu.com/56914/
[07:40] <jim_p> scuser: its not a distro :P
[07:40] <_2> rfxcasey you'll have to select the playback device/s in the sound server  or the app you are using.
[07:40] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: good point, i'll try it
[07:41] <rfxcasey> _2,  when I got to my mixer and try to mute the playback it doesn't stop it
[07:41] <l3d> ok I use my sound recorder to make a ogg of a music video hehe beats torrent but I was wondering why the movie player plays it fine and loud like it was when i was recording it but listen music player plays it really low where you cant hear it. Is this  due to the fact the ogg codec for listen is not installed right or something any ideas?
[07:41] <legend2440> meyos: now   cat /etc/hostname
[07:41] <jim_p> meyos: no edgar in there!
[07:41] <EvilTchnlgy_> i JUST uninstalled hyper-v last reboot or else id open up an ubuntu virtual machine
[07:41] <smm289> about how long should it take to make a ~80GB .tar.bz2 archive
[07:41] <_2> rfxcasey it's in the sustem settings menu thingy.    i'm not sure on the details to that.   i don't like gnome.
[07:42] <meyos> meyos-laptop
[07:42] <smm289> using an XPS1330
[07:42] <jim_p> smm289: with no compression?
[07:42] <meyos> no edgar in there!
[07:42] <_2> rfxcasey you should ask the channel rather than dirrecting to me on that one.   ;/
[07:42] <smm289> i have no idea, I just told the archiver to make a .tar.bz2 of my home folder
[07:42] <moidekar> meyos, how about /etc/resolv.conf - what;s in there?
[07:42] <smm289> gonna push it onto the network when its finished for same keeping
[07:43] <rfxcasey> _2 I will do a search for it in google
[07:43] <legend2440> meyos: ok if /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts match then that is not the problem. iwonder where its getting edgar from
[07:43] <jim_p> smm289: some hours i guess, even without compression. you may run out of space in the meantime
[07:43] <_2> rfxcasey someone in here can probably tell you
[07:43] <_2> sound control help for rfxcasey,   anyone !
[07:43] <jim_p> legend2440: some thing in network-manager?
[07:43] <smm289> I should have enough space to store the archive
[07:43] <rfxcasey> Does anyone know how to mute this mic playback when it doesn't work in the mixer
[07:43] <smm289> its been working for a couple hours
[07:43] <kernando> jim_p thanks a lot that worked great! :)
[07:44] <meyos> damn that edgar!
[07:44] <moidekar> smm289, 80 GIGs in your home folder? How about you exclude music etc, if that's what's taking up all the space?
[07:44] <jim_p> meyos: did you name ANYTHING "edgar"? a profile, a file?
[07:44] <jim_p> kernando: you are welcome. use a repo now
[07:44] <moidekar> meyos, could you pastebin contents of /etc/resolv.conf ? And don't damn me, please...
[07:44] <smm289> ya the music and pictures it whats maken it so huge, figure I would just include it all, I dont mind waiting just wondering what the normal time should be
[07:44] <airtonix> rfxcasey, check which device the volume controller is set to. maybe its not on the right one
[07:44] <alanbshepard77> can the caps of a compiz cube desktop be made into real desktops and not just a picture?
[07:45] <airtonix> alanbshepard77, not at this point
[07:45] <rfxcasey> airtonix, not sure I catch your drift
[07:45] <goldmetal> DIFH-iceroot, why the thing hangs?
[07:45] <goldmetal> 227 Entering Passive Mode (203,86,214,2,12,44)
[07:45] <jim_p> smm289: i compress a 4+GB iso to a 4- GB 7z file to ~30-40 minutes
[07:45] <goldmetal> DIFH-iceroot, i am trying to 'ls' list files
[07:45] <airtonix> alanbshepard77, i have a secret hope that bumptop wil become usable in linux...
[07:45] <meyos> moidekar: here it is, im not damn'en you, lol http://paste.ubuntu.com/56916/
[07:45] <alanbshepard77> airtonix: ok thanks. That's what i figured. I'd probably never use them anyway I just wondered for completness.
[07:45] <jim_p> airtonix: what is bumptop?
[07:46] <Appi> help me in installing mysql in ubuntu
[07:46] <smm289> lol  it will probably be doing it in the morning still
[07:46] <airtonix> rfxcasey, the volume controller applet in the gnome panel, right click it
[07:46] <EvilTchnlgy_> appi: what do you need help with?
[07:46] <kernando> jim_p i didnt use a repo (im not sure how) i just went to the opera website and got the 9.60 deb file
[07:46] <jim_p> meyos: what is this ? search gateway.2wire.net
[07:46] <airtonix> jim_p, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0ODskdEPnQ

[07:46] <airtonix> rfxcasey, okies apologies
[07:47] <Appi> I am new to ubuntu and I dont know how to use its terminal.
[07:47] <Flannel> !cli | Appi
[07:47] <drumstyk1> is there a keyboard shortcut to send a maximized window to a second monitor?
[07:47] <meyos> jim_p: not sure
[07:47] <EvilTchnlgy_> appi: follow this guide http://www.debianadmin.com/mysql-database-server-installation-and-configuration-in-ubuntu.html
[07:47] <jim_p> airtonix: oh yes, i have seen it before. i like compiz better
[07:47] <Flannel> drumstyk1: ctrl-shift-left? or is it alt?
[07:47] <tsukasa1105> question, where is the crontab log
[07:47] <airtonix> Appi, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[07:47] <tsukasa1105> im trying to debug why my cron isnt working
[07:47] <EvilTchnlgy_> Or you can use airtronix's official link ;)
[07:47] <tsukasa1105> well, the cron works, my command in it doesnt
[07:48] <jim_p> meyos: comment out that line then, restart network and try to update
[07:48] <airtonix> Appi, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[07:48] <Appi> thanks a lot
[07:48] <moidekar> meyos, what happens if you run    host  archive.canonical.com ?
[07:48] <drumstyk1> Flannel: thanks, but it's not workin for me
[07:48] <rfxcasey> airtonix, I muted AC97 and it stopped it but is that going to stop other playback too
[07:49] <rfxcasey> airtonix, my system sounds still work with it muted
[07:49] <Flannel> drumstyk1: That could be the wrong key combination.  I haven't used a GUI in a while.  Right click the app on the bottom panel, there should be a shortcut key next to the menu item
[07:49] <jim_p> meyos: can you ping ips to the outside world
[07:49] <jim_p> ?
[07:49] <airtonix> rfxcasey, i cant say for sure really.
[07:50] <rfxcasey> airtonix, do you know what the LFE means
[07:50] <meyos> sorry i dont know comment out
[07:50] <meyos> moidekar: whats the command to run that?
[07:51] <ubuntu_todd> what's the mean by LAMP?
[07:51] <airtonix> rfxcasey, something like : low frequency ....
[07:51] <moidekar> meyos, in your terminal run the command:     host archive.canonical.com
[07:52] <G0SUB> ubuntu_todd: Linux Apache MySQL PHP
[07:52] <airtonix> rfxcasey, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-frequency_effect
[07:52] <jim_p> meyos: ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:52] <rfxcasey> airtonix, ok thanks
[07:52] <airtonix> rfxcasey, just out of interest what card do you have?
[07:52] <meyos> archive.canonical.com has address <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:52] <kebomix> hello
[07:53] <kebomix> how to delete adhoc networks that i made ?
[07:53] <moidekar> meyos: that's weird - DNS works fine for you, then.
[07:53] <_2> jim_p who in greese are we pinging ?
[07:53] <fernado> hola

[07:54] <_2> ah   ok
[07:54] <kebomix> fernado: how to delete wireless networks that i made ?
[07:54] <moidekar> meyos, and then pastebin that result?
[07:54] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I've removed the problem files, and everything else is tagged correctly and working good. I'll just try new copies of the problem files one at a time and see if it fixes the problem
[07:54] <drumstyk1> Flannel: that is very useful info that i had never noticed before, however, my particular need right now is moving a window to my second monitor in twin view rather than the second desktop or "workspace"
[07:54] <Slow__> Hi. I'm new here so please be kind
[07:54] <airtonix> rfxcasey, or just lspci and look for what might look like an audio device
[07:55] <airtonix> rfxcasey, again im just curious

[07:57] <moidekar> meyos, trying to get at the pastebin... suddenly Firefox has slowed down on it (??)
[07:57] <airtonix> !paste | rfxcasey
[07:57] <airtonix> rfxcasey, :)
[07:58] <_2> ah so opera is not free...    is firefox ?
[07:58] <ubuntoRoxx> ????
[07:58] <meyos> moidekar: http://paste.ubuntu.com/56921/
[07:58] <spartan> _2 yes
[07:59] <rfxcasey> man staying orginized in linux is a real challenge for me
[07:59] <EvilTchnlgy_> opera is free, firefox is free and open source
[07:59] <kebomix> any one can help , it give me this error while update ,libawn0-bzr
[07:59] <kebomix> python-awn-bzr ?
[07:59] <EvilTchnlgy_> opera is just closed source
[07:59] <kebomix> Error authenticating some packages
[07:59] <_2> EvilTchnlgy_ heh symantics
[07:59] <meyos> 2wire.net gots me confused also legend
[07:59] <EvilTchnlgy_> hehe =)
[07:59] <drumstyk1> Flannel: you are officially my favorite... devilspie looks amazing, thanks
[08:00] <rfxcasey> airtonix, man staying organized in Linux is a real challenge for me
[08:00] <kebomix> any one here have experience with wireless networks ?
[08:00] <cakey> rver irc.rizon.net
[08:00] <EvilTchnlgy_> some. whats your problem?
[08:00] <_2> !FOSS
[08:00] <airtonix> rfxcasey, once you get a grip on it though... your a formidable force to be dealt with
[08:00] <kebomix> i want to delete adhoc networks that i made
[08:00] <moidekar> meyos, OK, got at the pastebin now. I notice that the paste ends with a single quote and a period. Did you put that there or is that actually in the file?
[08:01] <jim_p> kebomix: how did you make them? in network-manager
[08:01] <jim_p> ?
[08:01] <rfxcasey> airtonix,  I hear yea it's just there is soooo much info and customization
[08:01] <moidekar> meyos, I mean, did you put it there while pasting to pastebin ?
[08:01] <alanbshepard77> airtonix: I just watched bumptop in action. NICE!!!! I hope it's out for Linux ASAP!
[08:01] <meyos> it was there, i didnt type it
[08:02] <kebomix> jim_p: i click on network icon on top toolbar  then create new wireless network
[08:02] <airtonix> alanbshepard77, i wouldnt hold your breath...its only in alpha for windows...and only for that coffe table multitouch thing they got on the boards
[08:02] <jim_p> kebomix: cant you remove them the same way?
[08:02] <kebomix> no
[08:02] <kebomix> how ?1
[08:02] <rfxcasey> airtonix, http://paste.ubuntu.com/56923/
[08:03] <alanbshepard77> airtonix: ::::::::exhales::::::::  awww crud. Back to compiz I go.
[08:03] <kebomix> i clicked create wireless network
[08:03] <rfxcasey> airtonix, does that work
[08:03] <theCarpenter> does anyone know why the latest eclipse version in the repos is 3.2?
[08:03] <airtonix> rfxcasey, im looking now.
[08:04] <airtonix> rfxcasey, ah right you have a Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1 (rev 07)
[08:04] <moidekar> meyos, I notice that the pasted text ends with a single quote and a period. Is that actually in the file?
[08:04] <airtonix> rfxcasey, i would use that when searching on google along with the word ubuntu
[08:04] <_2> theCarpenter because that was the current stable version when the release was compiled ?
[08:04] <Flannel> theCarpenter: That's what was current when Hardy went into freeze, like _2 said
[08:05] <rfxcasey> airtonix, yea I always have the wrong hardware
[08:05] <meyos> yes hardy main'.
[08:05] <Appi> why do i get black color screen after i leave xchat
[08:05] <rfxcasey> airtonix,  I think I got it figured out just don't know if there will be any side effects
[08:05] <theCarpenter> is there any way to force updates?
[08:05] <rfxcasey> airtonix, time will tell
[08:05] <macvr>  chaddy: trillian doesnt work with linux! but the alpha testin of trillian astra for linux seems to be an invite only !
[08:06] <orospakr> What font is getting used here in the titlebar? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/DustTheme?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=dust-0917-firefox.jpg
[08:06] <EvilTchnlgy_> macvr pm me
[08:06] <rfxcasey> airtonix, now if I could just figure out all this compiling busness
[08:06] <pxc> hey I have a quick question about dist-upgrade stuff: how do I make Ubuntu 6.06 aware that 8.04 is available for upgrade?
[08:06] <Flannel> theCarpenter: Your best way to get it updated for future versions of Ubuntu is to file a bug report about it.
[08:06] <pxc> atm it is only offering to let me update to 7.10
[08:06] <Flannel> pxc: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes#From%207.10%20or%206.06%20LTS%20to%208.04%20LTS
[08:06] <Rask> is there any way to restart alsa?
[08:06] <Xcerca> if i get all new hardware but keep the hard drive that i have ubuntu on will i have problems booting into it...  i will still have and amd64 and nvidia graphic card ?
[08:06] <Flannel> pxc: Do you have 7.04 or 6.06?
[08:06] <_2> theCarpenter are you sure that you "need" a newer version before the next release ?   8.10
[08:07] <Flannel> _2: actually, Intrepid has 3.2.X as well
[08:07] <_2> oh.
[08:07] <airtonix> rfxcasey, usually you need to install build-essentails before most compiling works properly.
[08:07] <rfxcasey> airtonix, one question when you said to type ;vegastrike in that wrapper what was the ; for
[08:07] <airtonix> !info build-essentials
[08:07] <ubuntoRoxx> I have a text document lying on the remote server. i have logged in using SSH, and now I want to edit the document. How do I do that?
[08:07] <moidekar> meyos, did you edit the file by hand?
[08:07]  * _2 hides and lets Flannel do the one thang.
[08:07] <pxc> flannel: I am in this channel because that upgrade procedure does not work. it still only offers to let me upgrade to 7.10
[08:07] <Flannel> ubuntoRoxx: nano, vim, etc.
[08:08] <airtonix> rfxcasey, :) i didnt say that...must of been someone else
[08:08] <Appi>  why do i get black color screen after i leave xchat
[08:08] <meyos> moidekar: no i didnt
[08:08] <airtonix> !info build-essentails
[08:08] <airtonix> !info build-essentail
[08:08] <airtonix> ...
[08:08] <rfxcasey> airtonix, build essentials I think I installed that the other day trying to get doomsday to work
[08:08] <moidekar> meyos, that's weird. AFAIK, entries in that file should NOT end with '.
[08:08] <Xcerca> is 8.10 already out ?
[08:08] <ubuntoRoxx> Flannel: But when i write nedit myfile.txt & then I get the message Can't open display
[08:08] <Flannel> pxc: what does `lsb_release -r` give you?
[08:08] <Flannel> ubuntoRoxx: nano, not nedit.  nedit is a GUI
[08:08] <moidekar> Could you do : sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:09] <ljsoftnet> Xcera, it still has 18-20 days left
[08:09] <_2> pxc upgrade from 7.4 only supports to 7.10   not to 8.*
[08:09] <Flannel> !info build-essential | airtonix
[08:09] <moidekar> meyos, and then delete the ending '.
[08:09] <ljsoftnet> Xcerra, it still has 18-20 days left
[08:09] <ubuntoRoxx> Flannel: Aha, so I needs to be textbased?
[08:09] <ljsoftnet> Xcerca, it still has 18-20 days left
[08:09] <airtonix> rfxcasey, yeah thats pretty much the first thing you need kernel something or other is the other thing...but it all depends on the stuff your compiling
[08:09] <Flannel> ubuntoRoxx: Correct, or you need to do X forwarding
[08:09] <meyos> should i edit the file and remove the ('.)
[08:09] <moidekar> meyos, then save the file and try your update again and see?
[08:09] <_2> pxc thus it's assumed you will two step it. or fresh install
[08:09] <rfxcasey> airtonix, ok well to fill you in the _2 I think it was told me to make a wrapper containing cd /home/rfxcasey/Games/vegastrike/bin/ ;./vegastrike-64
[08:10] <ubuntoRoxx> Flannel: Hmm now i tried nano myFile.txt & but nothing happend
[08:10] <Flannel> ubuntoRoxx: Why did you put the & at the end?
[08:10] <_2> pxc if you want to live wild and dngerously.   you can manually single step to 8.*
[08:10] <moidekar> meyos, yes, try that, save the file, and re-try your update?
[08:10] <rfxcasey> airtonix, just wondering what the ;./vegastrike-64 part means
[08:10] <Flannel> pxc: You shouldn't do that.
[08:10] <ubuntoRoxx> Flannel: So i can used the terminal
[08:10] <airtonix> rfxcasey, ah that coulg be because its expecting to find files it needs in the place your running the game from
[08:10] <frybye> who is running openoffice 3 final ...?
[08:11] <Xcerca> is there a list of supported hardware for ubntu somewhere ?
[08:11] <Flannel> ubuntoRoxx: What the & does is means it gets sent to the background.  Whcih means it wont come up so you can see it.  It's running currently (type "jobs") but you may want to look into using screen to give you multiple terminals in one session
[08:11] <airtonix> rfxcasey, its not ;. its : cd /some/place/obscure/; ./vegastrike-64
[08:11] <Rask> I occasionally loose sound after running wine apps with sound or snesx emulator for extended periods, any idea why this is happening?
[08:11] <Flannel> ubuntoRoxx: when you type "jobs" you'll see the stuff running in the background with a number next to it, type %# where # is the number, to bring that to the foreground
[08:11] <_2> Flannel "shouldn't" ?   or "it's not supported"  ?       btw i wasn't suggesting it.
[08:11] <ubuntoRoxx> ahh yes
[08:11] <airtonix> rfxcasey, the semicolon means that what follows after is a new command seperate from the previous statement
[08:11] <rfxcasey> airtonix, ok so what does the . signify
[08:12] <ubuntoRoxx> arrrg i try to open using vim
[08:12] <pxc> flannel: okay, i'll do 7.10 first then, ty
[08:12] <Appi>  why do i get black color screen after i leave xchat
[08:12] <legend2440> !hardware | Xcerca
[08:12] <ubuntoRoxx> when i press bacspace i writes ^Z
[08:12] <Flannel> ubuntoRoxx: use nano, not vim
[08:12] <airtonix> rfxcasey, ok you remember in dos how there is always two folders called .. & . ?
[08:12] <ubuntoRoxx> Flannel: Why is Nano better?
[08:12] <Flannel> _2: both.
[08:12] <meyos> moidekar: thats weird, i went to edit the file and it has an extra line that doesnt end in ('.)
[08:12] <rfxcasey> airtonix, yea
[08:13] <meyos> moidekar: take a look http://paste.ubuntu.com/56926/
[08:13] <rfxcasey> airtonix,  for go up one and down one
[08:13] <Flannel> ubuntoRoxx: nano is more similar to a 'regular' text editor.
[08:13] <airtonix> rfxcasey, and if you changed to .. with : cd .. you would go back one directory
[08:13] <_2> ubuntoRoxx in vim  you might try putting the editor in "insert mode"  :)
[08:13] <ubuntoRoxx> Flannel: vim is VI right?
[08:13] <rfxcasey> airtonix, um hum
[08:13] <airtonix> rfxcasey, well not exactly... the single period is a representation of the current directory
[08:13] <Flannel> ubuntoRoxx: vim is related to vi, yes.
[08:13] <rfxcasey> airtonix, ah ok
[08:13] <_2> ubuntoRoxx vim is vi emproved
[08:13] <ubuntoRoxx> Flannel: What is the difference then?
[08:13] <Flannel> ubuntoRoxx: Difference between what?
[08:14] <paul68> what is the correct syntax to check with nmap if my network is safe should this be nmap -PO -O or do I need another option
[08:14] <ubuntoRoxx> Flannel: vim and vi
[08:14] <rfxcasey> airtonix, still don't know why we need it?
[08:14] <airtonix> rfxcasey, so imagine you have two copies of the same program installed but you just want to run one ... by prefixing it with ./command you are telling ti to run the one right here infront of you.
[08:14] <scuser> dear all, I'm trying to kerberize lustre using the command "sudo mount -t lustre -o sec=krb5i /dev/sda8 /mnt/data/mdt/" but I got error saying that sec is an invalid option I don't know why please help
[08:15] <Docal> I'm having compiz segfault on me and i'm not sure what part of the segfault log entry in /var/log/messages I should be plugging into google to try and diggup some answers for myself - in short, I don't know how to read a segfault log. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[08:15] <frybye> legend2440: problem with that hardware compatability list in the wiki is that nearly all the listings relate to legacy versions of ubuntu - there is hardly a mention of hardy - let alone intrepid??
[08:15] <rfxcasey> airtonix,  why is that is the directory for vegastrike in the path
[08:15] <Flannel> ubuntoRoxx: uh, vim is "vi improved", its got more features, and... specifics are outside the scope of this channel.
[08:15] <moidekar> meyos, I don't think the blank line is a problem, but the ('.) is almost certainly a problem. Remove the blank line if you wish, but delete the '. for certain
[08:15] <airtonix> rfxcasey, ie two copies of firefox...version 2 and 3.... you cd into the v3 folder and forget to prefix firefox.sh with ./ and you end up running v2
[08:15] <meyos> its not a blank line, the last line ends without the '.
[08:15] <legend2440> frybye: yes it is very outdated
[08:16] <goodi__> Can I somehow "force" gnome to detect my blank dvd for burning? Because currently gnome only detects it on reboot
[08:16] <frybye> legend2440: so outdated as to be of little value imho .. a lot of the time it will say - not supported - but under hardy (+) out of the box in fact...
[08:17] <meyos> ill remove it any way and see what happens
[08:17] <airtonix> rfxcasey, because i assume that vegastrike expects that your current working directory will have its data files.
[08:18] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: Ok, I copied a new file into the library, and it has the same problem as the old file. You change the tag but it re-opens with the old tag
[08:18] <balz> Anybody here have experience with mythtv/mythweb?  #ubuntu-mythtv seems to be empty, or everyone is afk
[08:18] <airtonix> rfxcasey, so by moving into the vegastrike folder first with cd , and then executing it locally you provide vegastrike with a valid 'current working directory' that actually contains the files it expects to find
[08:18] <meyos> it wont let me save?
[08:18] <paul68> what is the correct syntax to check with nmap if my network is safe should this be nmap -PO -O ip isp or do I need another option
[08:18] <_2> airtonix i "think" he's using a wrapper with  cd path/to/vegastrick ;vegastrick.executable.name
[08:19] <moidekar> meyos, you did use sudo gedit, right?
[08:19] <airtonix> _2, yep i understand that ... its the space before the semicolon thats confusing him/her
[08:19] <_2> no
[08:19] <rfxcasey> airtonix,  so why don't other programs have a problem like this?
[08:19] <meyos> lol no let me try, sorry, im a rookie
[08:19] <_2> white space before and after ; are ignored in shell syntax
[08:19] <airtonix> rfxcasey, just how each person makes them. some are lazy some are not...games are notorius for this
[08:20] <tsukasa_> hey, how do i redirect the output of a shell command to a file?
[08:20] <paul68> what is the correct syntax to check with nmap if my network is safe should this be nmap -PO -O ip isp or do I need another option
[08:21] <rfxcasey> airtonix, yea sorry for the bad question I know it's to generalized
[08:21] <legend2440> tsukasa_: you mean like   ls > file.txt?
[08:21] <moidekar> [restarting my ADSL connection, back in a few mins]
[08:21] <nado> hi there
[08:21] <tsukasa_> legend2440: from within a script
[08:21] <airtonix> rfxcasey, :)
[08:21] <fsanlu> howdy peoples. i just installed ubuntu! (yeah its great!) anyway.. i saved some partition for a windows install.. but then i realzied i dont have any cds. is there a way i can include that unpartitioned space to /
[08:22] <nxmehta> i need to print remotely over the internet from windows to a printer connected to a ubuntu server.  i've set cups/samba up so i can do it on the local LAN, but how should i do it remotely?  am i correct in assuming that i should not use samba remotely (it's insecure)?
[08:22] <legend2440> tsukasa_: oh ok.  sorry not sure about scripts
[08:22] <airtonix> fsanlu, not sure what you mean
[08:23] <nado> anybody got an idea if there's an application for gnome that would replace yakuake for kde? you know, a terminal that pops down from the top of a screen if you press a hotkey
[08:23] <BlueEagle> nxmehta: smb shares has got no business being published to the internet.
[08:23] <airtonix> fsanlu, you dont wnat windows anymore and now you want to make use of the harddrive space it took up as an extra partition for ubuntu?
[08:23] <meyos> moidekar: i still cant update. here is the error. http://paste.ubuntu.com/56928/
[08:23] <fsanlu> airtonix, yes! its just sitting as an unpartitioned space
[08:23] <rfxcasey> airtonix, I'm gonna go now but thanks so much for the help
[08:23] <airtonix> fsanlu, ok there is a page i will get for you on this topic
[08:23] <airtonix> rfxcasey, no problem
[08:24] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: When I open the files in easytag they show up red, which means easytag has automatically changed something. Maybe the files have a bad encoding or something. I'll experiment a bit more but I think those original files had corrupted tags, hence rhythmbox reading the corrupted tag rather than the newly generated tag made by itself or easytag
[08:24] <fsanlu> airtonix, thank you suh :D
[08:24] <rfxcasey> airtonix, I'll look you up if I see you in here again
[08:24] <airtonix> fsanlu, the basic principles are described here : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingANewHardDrive
[08:24] <BlueEagle> nxmehta: I would investegate the possibillity of printing directly to a cups server.
[08:24] <ce_imyoetz> hy
[08:24] <ce_imyoetz> hy
[08:25] <alanbshepard77> Anyone know how to make screenlets save their settings? I have one or two that work fine after reboot and the rest have to be re set and reconfigured, it's a pain.
[08:25] <meyos> i noticed i have a sources.list witch is blank and a sources.list.save that has all the info
[08:25] <Mao_> Hey guys. I'm trying to install Monodevelop, but gettin' C# error. Anybody can help, plz
[08:25] <airtonix> alanbshepard77, yeah i know...they make me want to destroy things
[08:26] <BlueEagle> nxmehta: alternately you could set up a VPN tunnel of sorts to allow a remote host to access the local smb network.
[08:26] <alanbshepard77> airtonix: :( that means nope, no fix. :(
[08:26] <airtonix> airtonix, well its kinda random
[08:26] <meyos> it seems to me that the could not resolve 'Edgar' has something to do with the problem.
[08:26] <_2> Mao_ may not be related.  but do you have "build-essential" installed ?
[08:27]  * airtonix is an idiot
[08:27] <Mao_> Yeah, I think I do
[08:27] <airtonix> alanbshepard77, its kinda random though...sometimes the settings stick other times after a reboot screenlets i deleted reload themeselves...
[08:28] <fsanlu> airtonix, thank you very much! :)
[08:28] <airtonix> fsanlu, glad to help
[08:28] <HeMan> Hi! How can I increase the arp cache?

[08:29] <alanbshepard77> airtonix: you know how to make the avant window manager autorun at boot or login. I really only need it for one user account
[08:29] <moidekar> [back online] meyos, any luck with editing the file and then doing the update?
[08:29] <airtonix> alanbshepard77, yep, you can do that in the system -> preferences -> session tool
[08:29] <airtonix> alanbshepard77, the executable is called awn
[08:29] <meyos> i noticed i have a sources.list witch is blank and a sources.list.save that has all the info
[08:29] <meyos> it seems to me that the could not resolve 'Edgar' has something to do with the problem.
[08:30] <legend2440> meyos: have you set up any networks or proxy servers?
[08:30] <jim_p> someone name me a qt app. any app
[08:30] <alanbshepard77> airtonix: ah nice, thanks
[08:30] <meyos> legend2440: no
[08:30] <jim_p> other tham skype and vbox
[08:30] <airtonix> alanbshepard77, i did however make a bash script that would wait about 6 seconds before running awn ...then i just put that script in the tool i mentioned
[08:30] <airtonix> alanbshepard77, its not required though..
[08:30] <legend2440> meyos: open synaptic and try the Reload button
[08:31] <airtonix> jim_p, googleearth uses qt
[08:31] <maddy> i have installed tomcat5.5 on ubuntu -8.04 hardy, it is running fine. Now i want to install hudson build tool using tomcat5.5. is there any related document??
[08:31] <meyos> legend2440: i get abunch of errors
[08:31] <airtonix> jim_p, but then googleearth isnt a real linux app
[08:31] <jim_p> airtonix: i was looking for a non-propriatary app
[08:31] <jim_p> airtonix: why?
[08:32] <alanbshepard77> airtonix: K, cool. You've been a big help.
[08:32] <Mao_> _2 Yeah I had it. Any other ideas? If you want I can send you the copy of the error message
[08:32] <airtonix> jim_p, because its still win32 code wrapped in a wine shell
[08:32] <scuser> dear all, I'm trying to kerberize lustre using the command "sudo mount -t lustre -o sec=krb5i /dev/sda8 /mnt/data/mdt/" but I got error saying that sec is an invalid option I don't know why please help
[08:32] <legend2440> meyos: open synaptic>settings>repositories   which Download server are you using?
[08:32] <jim_p> airtonix: like picassa? google-native-linux apps my ass
[08:33] <airtonix> jim_p, yeah its almost insulting if i took in personally
[08:33] <meyos> legend2440: server for united states
[08:33] <jim_p> airtonix: lmao
[08:34] <airtonix> jim_p, and this is from a open standards company...
[08:34] <legend2440> meyos: try changeing that to   Main Server and then try Reload button
[08:35] <jim_p> airtonix: well, if you take a look at code.google.com you will see a ton of native linux apps, NONE of which is in the repo
[08:35] <meyos> legend2440: errors
[08:35] <meyos> im doomed:(
[08:36] <airtonix> jim_p, just because a project is on code.google.com doesnt mean its owned by google. there is a process by which applications have to adhere to before they become candidates for the ubuntu repositories
[08:36] <hosstest> can someone please tell me how to change my start up splash?
[08:36] <airtonix> jim_p, but that process isnt hard...its just up to the developers to take those steps
[08:36] <jim_p> hosstest: the one with the ubuntu and the loading bar underneath?
[08:37] <hosstest> jim_p:  That is correct
[08:37] <jim_p> airtonix: meanwhile, all we have is crapy, non native linux apps! is google gadgets native at least?
[08:37] <legend2440> meyos: is this a wireless connection?

[08:38] <meyos> legend2440: no wireless
[08:38] <LuYu> how does one get the current display resolution for X
[08:38] <LuYu> commandline, not GUI
[08:38] <legend2440> meyos: it is wireless?
[08:38] <LuYu> cause im not using gnome
[08:39] <meyos> legend2440: wired connection
[08:40] <bentob0x> is it a way to know when the last fsck was done?
[08:40] <airtonix> jim_p, not too sure i havent looked into it, on the surface it looks like it is
[08:40] <legend2440> meyos: open system>administration>network then Unlock  and check in the diffrernt tabs for any reference to Edgar
[08:40] <bentob0x> some quick command?
[08:41] <jepes> hi guys, can anyone teach me or give me a link to expand my 3Gig reiserfs partion?
[08:41] <_2> LuYu what de are you using ?    but xwininfo should work
[08:41] <jim_p> airtonix: ok. it seems that google did make something!
[08:42] <LuYu> xfce
[08:42] <LuYu> i managed an upgrade to hardy
[08:42] <LuYu> but everything on my desktop went haywire
[08:42] <meyos> legend2440: I dont see Edgar
[08:42] <LuYu> i think its the X server
[08:42] <filsuf> hallo ... I want a nice laptop, 4gb ram that WORKS with Linux or ubuntu
[08:42] <LuYu> which is good and bad
[08:42] <filsuf> anybody ... any advice?
[08:42] <meyos> this is too strange
[08:42] <filsuf> 12" preferably
[08:43] <_2> LuYu probably the driver, maybe.
[08:43] <jim_p> !usplash > hosstest
[08:43] <airtonix> LuYu, xwininfo -root | grep Width
[08:43] <EvilTchnlgy_> filsuf: 1 sec
[08:43] <airtonix> LuYu, or just plain : xwininfo -root
[08:43] <filsuf> 2 secs already
[08:44] <legend2440> meyos: in terminal try     locate Edgar
[08:44] <meyos> filsuf: inspiron 1525 is what im using, but got some technical difficulties, lol
[08:44] <LuYu> yeah
[08:44] <filsuf> yes meyos .. Dell makes nice laptops .. I want that 13.3"
[08:44] <jim_p> meyos: still no edgar found?
[08:44] <bentob0x> is it a way to know when the last fsck was done?
[08:44] <filsuf> but the wifi is not compatible with Linux
[08:44] <LuYu> grep width?  or -geometry?
[08:45] <filsuf> anything just sounds like TROUBLE
[08:45] <LuYu> oh
[08:45] <jim_p> filsuf: what wlan adapter does it have?
[08:45] <LuYu> yeah, thats up there, too
[08:45] <LuYu> right
[08:45] <filsuf> what's your problem exactly meyos
[08:45] <filsuf> jim_p, dell minichip and some intels
[08:45] <EvilTchnlgy_> filsuf: cant seemt o find the page that had all the popular vendors that sold ubuntu preinstalled...
[08:45] <jim_p> :|
[08:45] <filsuf> there are 3 choices .. none works with Linux
[08:45] <EvilTchnlgy_> filsuf: as noted though dell does sell them now..
[08:45] <meyos> i typed locate Edgar and nothing happened
[08:45] <LuYu> well, its not the X server then
[08:46] <mib_88cqzp94> test..
[08:46] <meyos> filsuf: i cant install or update packages
[08:46] <LuYu> its 1200x900 like its supposed to be
[08:46] <jim_p> filsuf: intel and it does not work with linux?!?!?
[08:46] <mib_88cqzp94> hello everyone :)
[08:46] <airtonix> LuYu, you could try this : xwininfo -root | grep Width -A1
[08:46] <filsuf> I just do not feel like hacking my box anymore
[08:46] <mib_88cqzp94> what are you talking about?
[08:46] <LuYu> now, the question is, why are 16pt fonts suddenly huge
[08:46] <airtonix> LuYu, the -A1 means include the next number of lines also so -A1 means include the next one line found at the match
[08:47] <LuYu> and where did my panel go?
[08:47] <filsuf> 	Intel Next-Gen Wireless-N Mini-card [Included in Price]
[08:47] <filsuf> http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?oc=dndowj1&c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&kc=features~lt_pick_panel
[08:47] <LuYu> its cool
[08:47] <LuYu> i found the information i wanted
[08:47] <LuYu> which is good
[08:47] <airtonix> :)
[08:47] <_2> xwininfo -root | grep -A2 -i width
[08:47] <filsuf> that N thing is a PROBLEM for Linux
[08:47] <LuYu> but now i have to figure out how to make the window manager and XFCE play friendly
[08:47] <LuYu> obviously, the new xserver has changed things
[08:48] <LuYu> hmmm
[08:48] <airtonix> LuYu, btw...
[08:48] <airtonix> !who
[08:48] <LuYu> is there a quick way to output what xserver im using?
[08:48] <legend2440> bentob0x: sudo apt-get install showfsck then at terminal type    showfsck
[08:48] <airtonix> LuYu, you mean which window manager
[08:48] <bentob0x> thx legend2440
[08:48] <filsuf> http://tennessee.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=696809
[08:48] <mib_88cqzp94> guys, can I ask something..?
[08:48] <_2> xserver is xorg
[08:49] <EvilTchnlgy_> sure
[08:49] <filsuf> what question?
[08:49] <airtonix> !ask | mib_88cqzp94
[08:49] <LuYu> airtonix: no, which xserver: amd, intel, vga . . .
[08:49] <frybye> mib_88cqzp94: just ask - no need to ask to ask..
[08:49] <LuYu> or do i just have to list the xserver log for that?
[08:49] <mib_88cqzp94> thank you ^_^ I wanna ask: what r u talking about? srry,,
[08:49] <airtonix> LuYu, yes ther is let me try remember
[08:49] <EvilTchnlgy_> ..
[08:49] <LuYu> airtonix: kewl
[08:50] <frybye> mib_88cqzp94: is a support channel for ubuntu linux operating system...
[08:50] <paul68> BlueEagle: are you here?
[08:50] <mib_88cqzp94> hmm
[08:50] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: I found the problem mate :)
[08:50] <abo> is there a way to let ubuntu recognize my hardware again ?
[08:50] <meyos> im doomed :(
[08:50] <legend2440> bentob0x: actually showfsck doesnt show last time fsck was run   showfsck - Show the number of reboots until a forced fsck
[08:51] <frybye> mib_88cqzp94: and so not a place for general chat... specific tech quesitons about this o.system..
[08:51] <airtonix> LuYu,  glxinfo | head
[08:51] <mib_88cqzp94> another question: any suggestion on cool download manager for ubuntu?
[08:51] <bentob0x> that's perfect legend2440 :)
[08:51] <legend2440> bentob0x: ok
[08:51] <bentob0x> I just find my machine a bit 'slow' after each fsck
[08:51] <LuYu> airtonix:  thanks, ill try it
[08:51] <airtonix> LuYu, or : glxinfo | grep vendor
[08:51] <frybye> mib_88cqzp94: i think most folks find the one in firefox 3 does it all..
[08:51] <bentob0x> I just want to check before rebooting
[08:52] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, if you want a download manager seperate from firefox, try gwget
[08:52] <nagyv> hello, how can I (re)set the resolution of the login screen?
[08:52] <airtonix> !info gwget | mib_88cqzp94
[08:52] <mib_88cqzp94> I dunno firefox 3 has a download manager o_O it seems like just ordinary download
[08:52] <mib_88cqzp94> ok I'll find more info about gwget
[08:52] <LuYu> thats glx, though
[08:52] <LuYu> not X
[08:53] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, but be aware things like rapidshare wont work with thigns like gwget unless your a premium member and can see those direct download links
[08:53] <frybye> mib_88cqzp94: if not mistaken it can restart etc..
[08:53] <LuYu> airtonix: i need to know if X is using the AMD geode server
[08:53] <mib_88cqzp94> gwget isn't terminal-based, right? I'm somehow scared of that little black window..
[08:53] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, its a frontend to wget
[08:53] <legend2440> bentob0x:  bonager is a program that will warn you if fsck is going to be done    http://www.arsgeek.com/2006/12/06/bonager-is-a-great-ubuntu-tool-for-managing-your-fsck-disk-scans-at-startup/

[08:54] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, install it with : sudo apt-get install gwget
[08:54] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, fear is the mindkiller :)
[08:55] <genericguy> does anyone know how to access rhythymbox's tray icon menu or notification balloon through the python console?
[08:55] <frybye> airtonix: some politicians are thankfull for that imho - sorry OT
[08:55] <EvilTchnlgy_> oo, epic quote airtronix =)
[08:55] <airtonix> :)
[08:55] <mib_88cqzp94> airtonix, you're rite..
[08:56] <mib_88cqzp94> oops, looks like I messed up with the repository links
[08:56] <mib_88cqzp94> I'll try with the local repo then
[08:56] <mib_88cqzp94> the sudo apt-get doesn't work
[08:56] <LuYu> airtonix:  thanks for the help ... im out of time for today :)
[08:57] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, one sec you may need to open up some repos
[08:57] <mib_88cqzp94> somehow I prefer Synaptic ;)
[08:57] <frybye> mib_88cqzp94: paste the results from the termin window to - http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and then copy the resulting url for the past here ok?
[08:58] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, all good search for it in synaptics then
[08:58] <frybye> minerale: use synaptic - accesses the same data...
[08:58] <mib_88cqzp94> wow, what is the paste.ubuntu.com thing?
[08:58] <drumstyk1> has anyone successfully setup devilspie?? i am trying to figure it out but can't seem to get it to run.  here is my xml http://pastebin.com/m341a9f95
[08:59] <frybye> mib_88cqzp94: it is a way of giving folks here access to the results of stuff you do in the terminal window - to troubleshoot better...
[08:59] <airtonix> !paste | mib_88cqzp94
[08:59] <ptux> hello, i downloaded some isos from the internet, and i'd like to store it on an external HD. the problem is that when i try to copy on the external hd, i receive an error because it's a "too large file"

[09:00] <mib_88cqzp94> that's cool :)
[09:00] <mib_88cqzp94> hallo, all..
[09:00] <tiger2wander> anybody know about config ping by hostname under firewall?
[09:00] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, ah ok run : sudo apt-get update first
[09:00] <mib_88cqzp94> wait a minute, airtonix
[09:00] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gwget
[09:00] <mib_88cqzp94> i have found the gwget on my local repo
[09:00] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94,  what repository are you using?
[09:01] <frybye> mib_88cqzp94: well done - you cracked the thing with pasting.. :=)
[09:01] <mib_88cqzp94> (i store the 20gigs on my harddisk :D)
[09:01] <mib_88cqzp94> thanks, frybye :)
[09:01] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, lol...nice one did you use apt-mirror or something?
[09:01] <mib_88cqzp94> airtonix: well, local repository? ubuntu hardy
[09:01] <mib_88cqzp94> err.. I dunno what an apt-mirror is..
[09:01] <smadge> ptux: some file syystems dont support large files
[09:02] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, how did you get the repository on your hardrive i mean...apt-mirror is one way of doing it
[09:02] <toresn> i have many files in the form 'Seinfeld.S03E01.The.Note.DVDRip.x264-DiGG.mkv' ... how can i mass rename them so that they are on the form '3x01 - The Note.mkv'
[09:02] <frybye> airtonix: does he need to activate "3rd party repos"??
[09:02] <airtonix> frybye, doesnt look like it
[09:02] <airtonix> !info gwget
[09:02] <airtonix> i stand corrected
[09:02] <meyos> legend2440:im going to reboot with cd, but i get no install option
[09:02] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94,  you need to enable the universe repo
[09:03] <mib_88cqzp94> airtonix: oh well, I copy the repo from someone
[09:03] <frybye> in synaptic - config - repositories/sources or similar...
[09:03] <mib_88cqzp94> then just place it on my HDD coz sometimes I can't find the internet to update
[09:03] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, from your intial pastebin looks like the repo is not formed properly
[09:03] <frybye> airtonix: I am at work on xp - help him there pse..
[09:03] <tiger2wander> did you know how to config netbios under firewall?
[09:04] <legend2440> meyos: its the ubuntu livecd?
[09:04] <mib_88cqzp94> airtonix, yeah, I disable all the repo link except the local repo
[09:04] <meyos> im going to reinstall with cd, but i get no install option , anyone can help
[09:04] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, i guess you could try search the hardrive manually for he gwget deb
[09:04] <meyos> yes
[09:04] <tiger2wander> i just config ubuntu can ping by hostname but it can not do it after i enabled firewall
[09:04] <tiger2wander> even i add netbios port to firewall
[09:04] <legend2440> meyos: your bios is set to boot from cd?
[09:05] <mib_88cqzp94> airtonix. hey I'm not fond of manual things... i'm using Synaptic and all goes well :D
[09:05] <tiger2wander> anybody know? please help me
[09:05] <airtonix> tiger2wander, firestarter you mean...when you install that it locks everything up turns icmp access off
[09:05] <meyos> do i insert cd and restart ?
[09:05] <frybye> if he accesses the normal repos over the net should be no prob and manual install is not vor everybody I guess....:=)
[09:05] <airtonix> tiger2wander, btw firestarter is just a gui not a firewall itself...iptables has always been on yoursystem
[09:06] <legend2440> meyos: yes insert cd and reboot making sure your bios is set to boot from cd
[09:06] <mib_88cqzp94> airtonix, after several years of windows-based download manager and now facing the plain window of gwget... linux is surely fond of such simple things, arent they?
[09:06] <tiger2wander> airtomix, i'm using ufw, not firestarter
[09:06] <frybye> mib_88cqzp94: you need to do an update - top left in synaptic - after youi click to add new repos...
[09:06] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 i have a profound hatred of automatic crap,  so i guess it takes all kinds.
[09:06] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, think of apt-get and synaptics as how windows update should have been
[09:06] <meyos> how can i check the bios?
[09:06] <toresn> i have many files on the form 'Seinfeld.S03E01.The.Note.DVDRip.x264-DiGG.mkv' ... how do i rename them to the form '3x01 - The Note.mkv' ?
[09:07] <tiger2wander> i just edit /etc/nsswitch.conf and /etc/samba/smb.conf to enable to ping by hostname
[09:07] <frybye> and then .. search for the   gwget or...?
[09:07] <mib_88cqzp94> airtonix, I think I'll need the apt-get on the future...but now I'm okay with Synaptics and local-repo :)
[09:07] <legend2440> meyos: not sure about laptops. on mine i hit delete key as its rebooting to enter bios setup mode
[09:07] <tiger2wander> but it false again after i re-enabled firewall
[09:07] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, synaptic and apt-get both work from the same place
[09:07] <meyos> ill try
[09:08] <drumstyk1> toresn: i have no experience but have you checked out the bulk renamer under applications>accessories?
[09:08] <airtonix> tiger2wander, why did you edit nsswitch?
[09:08] <frybye> mib_88cqzp94: when ppl give you an apt-get for this or that here - it is very easy to copy and past it to the terminal ans so have no mistakes etc..
[09:08] <kizm0> hello
[09:08] <jim_p> meyos: still no edgar? are you behind some proxy?
[09:09] <mib_88cqzp94> frybye, yes it is..
[09:09] <legend2440> meyos: you installed hardy once already right?    how did you do it the last time?
[09:09] <kizm0> this is kind of a random question actually, im usually on topic but i thought id share about something i do as a hobby\living. i make beats.  here's a recent one i made: http://boomp3.com/listen/c1tp9luuu_n/cool-1-2-2  --any comments or help on this would be highly appreciated
[09:09] <mib_88cqzp94> problem: gwget would not download the link I give to him!
[09:09] <meyos> jim_p: im going to reinstall ubuntu
[09:09] <Flannel> kizm0: #ubuntu-offtopic would be the place to discuss that
[09:09] <toresn> drumstyk1: i'd prefer to learn doing it via the command line
[09:10] <kizm0> ah
[09:10] <_2> legend2440 and meyos some bios' use 'left-shift' some 'F2' some 'F1'  some 'delete'   some 'escape'  it's really maker specific.
[09:10] <tiger2wander> airtonix, i added wins to hosts: to enable it detects wins network
[09:10] <meyos> legend2440: i had vista before, ubuntu started up when i restarted
[09:10] <jim_p> meyos: tough call
[09:11] <jim_p> meyos: can you show me that pastebin that said edgar again?
[09:11] <meyos> i know i dont want to reinstall but hopefully it fixes my problem
[09:11] <frybye> mib_88cqzp94: some download sites use code that requires that it is a normal browser that is d-loading i guess...
[09:11] <meyos> jim_p: sure, one second
[09:12] <mib_88cqzp94> frybye: well, the download link is from a website that ask for temporary username and password for login. Is it the case? So I can't use download manager?
[09:12] <frybye> mib_88cqzp94: i am no expert - perhaps others know better.. ??
[09:12] <frybye> i have to  bout outa here for a bit - good luck!!!
[09:13] <mib_88cqzp94> frybye: okay, thank you so much :)
[09:13] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 try "anonamus" ?  password is your email addy
[09:13] <mib_88cqzp94> _2: what do you mean?
[09:14] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 username "anonamus"
[09:14] <mib_88cqzp94> hey... even the gwget doesn't have the progress bar :(( so frustatingly simple...
[09:14] <meyos> jim_p: what u think, should i reinstall?
[09:14] <mib_88cqzp94> I'm used to see the download progress bar, not just a text of percentage..
[09:14] <Matthai> hi, I have Asus eeepc 1000 and can't set resolution to 1024x600 - this resolution is not available at all
[09:16] <mib_88cqzp94> okay, if the gwget won't work on the protected website... then what about the download manager from Firefox 3?
[09:16] <jim_p> meyos: reinstall is like... i give up! if the problem has tired you that uch, reinstall
[09:16] <mib_88cqzp94> what is a download manager after all? if it can pause the download, and then resume, does it called download manager?
[09:17] <meyos> ive been at it for 4 hours, i checked ubuntu.forums, and google, and here, but nothing :(
[09:17] <jim_p> meyos: give me that pastebin
[09:18] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: Yep, some dummy put apev2 tags in the mp3 files
[09:18] <meyos> http://paste.ubuntu.com/56939/
[09:18] <EvilTchnlgy_> i jsut hapened o open irc abck up when u said that ahha
[09:18] <EvilTchnlgy_> wow haha. knew there was some other non id3 2.34 tags there haha!
[09:18] <EvilTchnlgy_> *2.3
[09:19] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: Yeah once I knew the problem the solution was simple, remove the ape tags
[09:19] <jim_p> meyos: well if edgar is not a proxy, not some pc on the local network, not some access point, not some dns server, what can it be?
[09:19] <mib_88cqzp94> ah, stupid me. of course i've been deceived by the first impression of gwget.
[09:19] <_2> wow.  nmap can get the "uptime" from a host   ;/  !!!
[09:19] <mib_88cqzp94> really, they are expert at hiding things..
[09:20] <Abracad4br4> good morning Ubuntu channel :)

[09:21] <meyos> thanks for all the help everyone that has helped me out.
[09:21] <mib_88cqzp94> Abracad4br4: it is "good afternoon" at my place :)

[09:25] <sudoconfused> what's good about it?
[09:25] <filthpig> EvilTchnlgy_, well it comes bundled with ubuntu for the last couple of releases..
[09:25] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: nope linux too
[09:25] <EvilTchnlgy_> wendico: the easiest soluton is probably just to amke a script for it....
[09:26] <waan> EvilTchnlgy_: might be a different transmission though
[09:26] <EvilTchnlgy_> eviltchnlgy. dang im behind the times aha, no idea how to make torrents with it >< sorrry
[09:26] <mib_88cqzp94> what is a torrent?
[09:26] <scuser> dear all, I'm trying to kerberize lustre using the command "sudo mount -t lustre -o sec=krb5i /dev/sda8 /mnt/data/mdt/" but I got error saying that sec is an invalid option I don't know why please help
[09:26] <waan> A fast stream of water
[09:26] <mib_88cqzp94> how can I download a torrent? how can I use it?
[09:26] <EvilTchnlgy_> a method of distributed distribution
[09:26] <mib_88cqzp94> waan: haha very funny
[09:26] <EvilTchnlgy_> where everyone who has a peice of a file concurrently reuplaods it to other downloaders
[09:26] <wendico> EnilTchnlgy_: cannot i use the nm-applet to configure my dial up umts network?
[09:27] <waan> mib_88cqzp94: just replace water with data
[09:27] <mib_88cqzp94> EvilTchnlgy_, no recursive here please
[09:27] <mib_88cqzp94> EvilTchnlgy_, ooke I think I get it
[09:27] <EvilTchnlgy_> wendico: dialup? didnt u jsut say 3g?
[09:27] <mib_88cqzp94> waan: so that's what u mean :D
[09:27] <mib_88cqzp94> "a stream of data"
[09:27] <waan> mib_88cqzp94: wiki ftw http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_(protocol)
[09:27] <mib_88cqzp94> okay, then it is some kind of data or file, rite?
[09:28] <EvilTchnlgy_> example
[09:28] <wendico> yes, i said so, but im not expert and because the command i use to connect is wvdial, i thought is a dial up conection
[09:28] <EvilTchnlgy_> person x has a file
[09:28] <EvilTchnlgy_> they start a torrent on server y
[09:28] <filthpig> mib_88cqzp94, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_(protocol)
[09:28] <EvilTchnlgy_> people beta and alpha want the file
[09:28] <_2> scuser because mount sees sec= as an nfs4 option.
[09:28] <nagyv> how can I (re)set the resolution of the login screen?
[09:28] <EvilTchnlgy_> so they connect to the torrent and start downloading from person x
[09:28] <airtonix> !enter
[09:28] <mib_88cqzp94> EvilTchnlgy_, go on, I'm listening :)
[09:28] <EvilTchnlgy_> as they download the both upload to each other and downlaod from person x at the same time
[09:29] <EvilTchnlgy_> if person alpha finishes first he continues uplaoding to person beta
[09:29] <scuser> _2: and how I can make it see it as lustre option?
[09:29] <waan> mib_88cqzp94: Each peer who downloads the data also uploads them to other peers...
[09:29] <EvilTchnlgy_> so that you are either seeding: e.g. jsut uloading when you are at 100%
[09:29] <mib_88cqzp94> waan, hmm, just like a multi-level marketing?
[09:29] <_2> scuser rewrite mount and compile it ?
[09:29] <EvilTchnlgy_> or leeching: downloading, or downloading and uploading
[09:29] <waan> lol
[09:29] <mib_88cqzp94> EvilTchnlgy_, then it'll consume large bandwith, doesn't it?
[09:30] <EvilTchnlgy_> its most easily understood witha diagram...
[09:30] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, you should have a program called transmission that will deal with torrents
[09:30] <mib_88cqzp94> because of the mechanism of "sharing"
[09:30] <waan> mib_88cqzp94: you can limit the bandwith up/down speeds
[09:30] <airtonix> EvilTchnlgy_, try looking for an animation on youtbue maybe...i think that would describe torrents better
[09:30] <mib_88cqzp94> airtonix, so the Transmission is a name of a program to handle the torrents?
[09:30] <scuser> _2: can't get you what will happen when I rewrite mount it will see again sec as NFS4 option
[09:30] <acp_>  have still pictures and I want to make a kind of presentation/movie like any application can you suggest I been googling and keeps on pointhing me to kino but but is just jpegs  I want to create a movie
[09:30] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, its the one i prefer.
[09:31] <mib_88cqzp94> hmm, i'll look in my synaptics again :D
[09:31] <Obuntu> hi all
[09:31] <scuser> _2 : do you know how this may be done ?
[09:31] <waan> mib_88cqzp94: I use transmission, simple and works good
[09:31] <airtonix> mib_88cqzp94, it should be installed already...comes default
[09:31] <kane77> what is the name of the module for nvidia cards?
[09:31] <acp_> what application should I use to make a movie like out of still pictures?
[09:31] <ActionParsnip> acp_: you could use impress or put the pics on layers and save as gif, it will be an naimated gif
[09:31] <airtonix> kane77, nv ?
[09:31] <_2> scuser no.   and by 'rewrite' i meant editing the source code.
[09:31] <waan> kane77: nv, or nvidia I Think
[09:31] <joey__> hello
[09:32] <mib_88cqzp94> airtonix, yup I found the transmission, currently am installing it
[09:32] <scuser> _2: so which files needs to be rewritten?
[09:32] <kane77> waan, airtonix thank you.. I'm trying to get suspend working and I guess I need to unload that module
[09:32] <waan> !nvidia | kane77
[09:32] <mib_88cqzp94> but isn't torrent dangerous? I heard they mostly contain viruses?
[09:32] <wendico> hello, can I define my wvdial configuration into my network manager "nm-applet" so i can connect to using gnome ui? If so, can someone help me in doing it?
[09:32] <joey__> how to make my cairo dock visible automatically when i start my computer?
[09:32] <joey__> anybody?
[09:32] <acp_> thanks
[09:33] <airtonix> kane77, actually thats an issue thats deeply rooted in the acpi of your motherboard....there is much contreversy over foxconn and its handling of linux in terms of that topic
[09:33] <joey__> hello
[09:33] <joey__> anybody pls ans my question
[09:33] <_2> scuser unless the man page is way behind (which is possable) then there is no sec= for anything but nfs4.  the ones that add luster support.    that's as far as i can go there.  sorry.
[09:33] <Obuntu> I am new in ubuntu and want to make ubuntu box as company firewall what do you suggest for me ?? right now i'm using checkpoint and need something easy to configure <.... pleas help ME
[09:33] <airtonix> kane77, many people dont like to talk about it, but i feel that something is amiss in that area
[09:34] <mib_88cqzp94> next question about Transmission: if I wanna download a torrent, which one should I choose: Open or Create new torrent?
[09:34] <kane77> airtonix, sad thing is that before 8.04 suspend worked fine, now it does not wake up :(
[09:34] <scuser> _2: thanks for your help and time :)
[09:34] <koshari> anyone got clutch working?
[09:34] <airtonix> kane77, just so you know, foxconn are the guys who make about 90% of the motherboards for all the mobo companies
[09:34] <joey__> anyone?
[09:34] <joey__> pls....
[09:34] <joey__> help me.
[09:34] <airtonix> kane77, that is because of how linux has had to compensate for the way the acpi does not stick to standards
[09:35] <wendico> joey_: System-Preferences-Sessions
[09:35] <kane77> airtonix, ok, I'm going to try it out..
[09:35] <mib_88cqzp94> joey__, i'm still looking for Cairo Dock..
[09:35] <_2> !autostart > Joey__
[09:35] <_2> oops
[09:36] <EvilTchnlgy_> is it
[09:36] <filthpig> well.. Can I host a torrent directly through Transmission or not?
[09:36] <airtonix> kane77, but dont rely on my info in that department, you read all about the debalce here http://ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=869249
[09:36] <EvilTchnlgy_> !autostart | joey__
[09:36] <_2> EvilTchnlgy_ he already left before i tried that.
[09:36] <EvilTchnlgy_> didnt see hehe
[09:37] <airtonix> filthpig, maybe ask that in the transmission channel, i know torrents start seeding once i have downloaded them
[09:37] <wendico> hello, can I define my wvdial configuration into my network manager "nm-applet" so i can connect to using gnome ui? If so, can someone help me in doing it?
[09:37] <mib_88cqzp94> next question about Transmission: if I wanna download a torrent, which one should I choose: Open or Create new torrent?
[09:38] <alrex021> After kernel update, my vmware of course stopped working. I am getting a strange error though when trying to run /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl
[09:39] <idefix> Flannel?
[09:39] <_2> wendico i think that a wvdial script in /etc/ppp/peers/ can handle that.   and no i can't walk you through it though.
[09:39] <alrex021> /tmp/vmware-config3/vmnet-only/bridge.c:890: error: redefinition of ‘sock_valbool_flag’
[09:39] <idefix> I have now edgy on my PC but still no JAVA
[09:39] <gonzaloaf_laptop> hi, the boot time of my ubuntu have increased a bit more, when its booting it stops long time at 'booting cups daemon...' then when gdm loads it takes a minute to load all my desktop, what could be happening?
[09:39] <g33k_gir1> ok... so, I have a RAM/performance question: I have 2 x 1GB DDR2 800 RAM modules installed on the mobo. I have some leftover 512MB DDR2 566 modules lying around. will I get better performance with 2GB of 800 RAM only, or should I stick in the leftover older modules to give me 3GB, but will probably run at the slower speed of 566?
[09:39] <alrex021> whats the easiest way to rebuild the vmware install with new kernel?
[09:40] <gonzaloaf_laptop> I cannot also make ping to my router
[09:40] <alrex021> I did an update on linux-kernel-devel too
[09:40] <alrex021> but still same error
[09:41] <wendico> _2: Thanks, so that means I cannot use the ui and i have to use scripts?
[09:41] <_2> wendico no.  it means that the ui does use the scripts.
[09:41] <Obuntu> hi all
[09:41] <Obuntu> any expert in FW
[09:42] <jim_p> !broadcom
[09:43] <_2> wendico it been ages sense i messed with the gui dialer  but i do recall that the config files in /etc/ppp/ and scripts in /etc/ppp/peers/  are how to get it to use wvdial.   note" there may be a gui way to reach that end too.
[09:43] <_2> it has
[09:43] <wendico> _2: uff, im to retarded to undestand, just kidding, im not linux expert neither english speaker so i dont get what u mean. Are u telling me i should configure that script so after it, i can connect with mi Network Manager ui?
[09:44] <gonzaloaf_laptop> hi, why I am not able to make ping to my laptop that its connected by wireless? I can navigate but not ping to the router
[09:45] <wendico> gonzaloaf_latptop: hi, your are probably unabling pinging on the router
[09:45] <_2> wendico yes.   that's the "jest" of it.    <!sp> gist ?
[09:45] <wendico> _2: thanks, im gonna try to mesh with that scripts
[09:45] <gonzaloaf_laptop> wendico, yes, but I can surf the web... it is very weird
[09:45] <Obuntu> I need to make ubuntu box as firewall can someone help?
[09:46]  * _2 doesn't spell english.
[09:47] <_2> !firewall > Obuntu
[09:47] <Obuntu> _2 yes
[09:47] <jivan28> hi guys, how do I change my graphics driver to intel from vesa, I'm having intel 845
[09:47] <wendico> gonzaloaf_laptop: is not weird, is very normal to allow browse (port 80)  but not allow pinging in a router for security reasons. If you like to ping, try logging in your router (http://defaultgatewayip) and under security or managment options, enable ping in the internal network
[09:47] <idefix> what does rpm stand for?
[09:47] <jivan28> Intel 845 GM motherboard
[09:47] <jivan28> idefix: redhat package manager
[09:48] <idefix> jivan28, also in this context? ./jre-6u7-linux-i586-rpm.bin: 442: rpm: not found
[09:48] <gonzaloaf_laptop> wendico, but I cannot ping another users in the network either
[09:48] <jivan28> !intel
[09:48] <jivan28> !xorg
[09:48] <DJones> !rpm > idefix
[09:49] <_2> !dpkg > idefix
[09:49] <idefix> java is supposed to be downloadable from the repos, yet it doesn't work on my system
[09:50] <wendico> gonzaloaf_laptop: if you are trying to ping through a wireless network, it may be cut in the router ass well, if you are trying to ping trough ethernet, probably the destination is blocking that ping
[09:50] <Obuntu> _2 can I PM you ?
[09:50] <ziroday> idefix: java is downloadable from the ubuntu repos
[09:50] <_2> you can try.
[09:51] <idefix> ziroday I have them all green, still it does not work :(
[09:51] <wendico> gonzaloaf_laptop: try pinging www.google.com (that has open ping) to test from diferent computers in your network
[09:51] <ziroday> idefix: how are you starting it?
[09:51] <wendico> going to get breakfast, see u in a while :)
[09:51] <idefix> ziroday by opening a web-page that needs it
[09:51] <gonzaloaf_laptop> wendico, I can ping google but no any computer on my network

[09:55] <idefix> ziroday: am I garantueed it will work after the installation?
[09:55] <ziroday> idefix: nothing is guarenteed.

[09:56] <mib_88cqzp94> guys.. I have a serious question: is it dangerous to left just 200MB spaces on your ROOT drive?
[09:56] <Dj_SiR> when i check in my add/remove programs it says... ubuntu is installed
[09:56] <idefix> :\
[09:57] <Dj_SiR> so what will i do to activate ubuntu?
[09:58] <filthpig> activate?
[09:58] <idefix> why does installing java so often result in complaining about permissions and ownership? I thought java was supposed to make programming easier over different platforms!
[09:59] <ziroday> Dj_SiR: please ask your question in http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=234 Whilst waiting for help you can read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide
[09:59] <Dj_SiR> hmmmmm... it seems no one is interested to help me out...
[09:59] <ziroday> Dj_SiR: we are helping you, it takes time however. Please be patient
[09:59] <mib_88cqzp94> guys.. I have a serious question: is it dangerous to left just 200MB spaces on your ROOT drive?

[10:00] <Dj_SiR> anyway i appreciate it... thank you so much...
[10:00] <ziroday> idefix: one has japanese I think
[10:00] <erwin_> hi i have a my network does not work on a fresh ubuntu installion.. please help :(
[10:00] <filthpig> Dj_SiR, if somebody who CAN help are available, they will help out. Even though people are logged in here, doesn't mean they are in front of their computer the entire time or simply idling just waiting to answering a question
[10:00] <mib_88cqzp94> ziroday: I mean, the "/" drive... and it's not even 200MBs, it's just 120MBs!
[10:00] <erwin_> hi my network does not work on a fresh ubuntu installion.. please help :(
[10:01] <ziroday> mib_88cqzp94: yes that is dangerous. You can install localepurge to save some space and launch the disk usage anylazer to see where it is all being used up.
[10:01] <Mickmeister> Does anybody have any idea why my desktop cube may not be working? I tick the box to enable it in compiz settings manager and it just doesn't work. It seems as though the more fancy effects aren't working, where as the more basic ones such as wobbly windows are.
[10:01] <mib_88cqzp94> ziroday: you know, in Windoze, if the drive C: is left with such little space, it'll screamin' "not enough free space" etc..
[10:01] <kmg> I encounter this error whenever I try to do anything involving packages:
[10:01] <filthpig> erwin_, please be a bit more specific. Is it wireless networking that doesn't work?
[10:01] <kmg> 'E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/wine.budgetdedicated.com_apt_dists_hardy_main_binary-i386_Packages, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'
[10:01] <mib_88cqzp94> ziroday: what is localepurge?
[10:02] <erwin_> filthpig: its wired, and am using sis190 chipset
[10:02] <ziroday> mib_88cqzp94: it is a program that gets rid of unneeded locales (translations)
[10:02] <mib_88cqzp94> well, my "/" drive is just 7.5 GBs in size, no wonder it gets filled up so quick =_=
[10:02] <erwin_> filthpig: it could not get ip configs from dhcp, but when i try windows it does without any problems
[10:03] <mib_88cqzp94> ziroday: ok, I've installed localepurge. Then it pops up with a list of weird-name files..
[10:04] <ziroday> mib_88cqzp94: what language is your native language?
[10:04] <mib_88cqzp94> ziroday: ok, lets see... I'm Indonesian, but never use that language for computer. So, it'll be English. Oh, and I'll need Japanese and Arabic, too.
[10:04] <mib_88cqzp94> ziroday: so which one should I choose?
[10:05] <filthpig> erwin_, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2410996#post2410996 and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=76889 for possible help. It seems your problem is not unique
[10:05] <faileas> anyone know of any free software that can backup to something restorable from bare metal on multiple DVDs - mondo dosen't seem to work for me so thats out....
[10:05] <ziroday> mib_88cqzp94: en_US or en_UK or which ever one you are, I think JP is japan and AR is arabic, not sure lemme check
[10:05] <kmg> I encounter this error whenever I try to do anything involving packages: 'E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/wine.budgetdedicated.com_apt_dists_hardy_main_binary-i386_Packages, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'
[10:05] <erwin_> filthpig: will check it out thanks
[10:06] <mib_88cqzp94> ziroday or someone else: what is the difference of en_US, en_US.ISO-8859-15, and en_US.UTF-8? Which one should I choose...?
[10:07] <_2> kmg sudo apt-get update   ?
[10:07] <ziroday> mib_88cqzp94: you can choose all of them
[10:07] <mib_88cqzp94> oh, and those are things called "locale files", whatever it means..
[10:07] <mib_88cqzp94> ziroday: must I choose all of them?
[10:07] <ziroday> mib_88cqzp94: only the ones you want
[10:07] <mib_88cqzp94> ziroday: why not just "en" or "en_US"?
[10:07] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 probably the utf8
[10:08] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: choose utf-8
[10:08] <mib_88cqzp94> ziroday, oh ok.. but I don't understand their difference..
[10:08] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: why so?
[10:08] <ziroday> mib_88cqzp94: en will have every language with en, en_US will have every language with en_US in it
[10:08] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: ISO-8859-15 is legacy
[10:08] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: er, sorry.. but what do you mean by "legacy"?
[10:09] <Ububegin> what the linux command to find the amount of memory being used at any moment
[10:09] <hume> Ububegin, free
[10:09] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: old sooo deprecated by unicode (utf-8)
[10:09] <mib_88cqzp94> sorry guys, I really don't understand these things... and thanks for helping me out :)
[10:09] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: old soon deprecated by unicode (utf-8)
[10:09] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL, ok, so utf-8 is Newer than ISO-whatisit, rite?
[10:10] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: yep

[10:11] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: ubuntu has allways used utf8 by default in its installs... you should have a very good reason to choose otherwise and given that you can not tell the difference you do not have that good reason
[10:11] <_2> Ububegin free -h
[10:11] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: rite :) and then, what about Japanese and Arabic locale files?
[10:12] <mib_88cqzp94> is there any website giving explanation about these "locale files"?
[10:12] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: you need them?
[10:12] <erwin_> filthpig: those seem to be fixes for older kernel versions. I already installed the latest kernel from hardy repo :(
[10:12] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: why not simply use System>Admin>Language support?
[10:12] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: the explanation? well, I wanna know, esp. the meaning of those name of locale files..
[10:13] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: er, mayber becoz I don't realize that. thanks, will try it now..
[10:13] <kmg> _2: same error
[10:13] <_2> Ububegin i might warn you that most people fail to notice that the top line of the free output is not what one might call "accurate" as per usage.
[10:13] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: utf-8 and ISO-8859-15 and ascii (to name the most widely know) are different sytems to encode characters on a computer
[10:13] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: okay...
[10:14] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: but unfortunately the System>Admin>Lang Support doesn't give any explanation..
[10:14] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: you see, I'm trying to figure out which one I should choose in localepurge
[10:14] <_2> kmg hmmm   sudo mv /var/lib/apt/lists/wine.budgetdedicated.com_apt_dists_hardy* /root ;sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/* ;sudo apt-get update
[10:15] <filthpig> erwin_, that is often the case. However, if it worked then, it will probably work now, too. Just change the kernel version to your current one.
[10:15] <mib_88cqzp94> has anyone use localepurge?
[10:15] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: we already give you the answer... keep the utf-8 locales unless you know you need any other
[10:15] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 i think the installer still runs that to clean up after itself ?    or it used too.
[10:16] <erwin_> filthpig: i didn't work with my old kernel so i tried upgrading.. same thing happens.
[10:16] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: that's okay with the English (en), but I can't figure out to choose the Japanese and the Arabic coz the name is ambiguous
[10:16] <erwin_> filthpig: *it
[10:16] <Ububegin> _2: Oh.. so it only an approx , You mean
[10:16] <mib_88cqzp94> ..or maybe I'm having wrong idea about this locale files...? is it the same as Language I install in my ubuntu?
[10:17] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: what are the names?
[10:17] <_2> Ububegin i mean that the line below it. {-/+ buffers/cache:} is the actual used memory
[10:17] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: the names from "localepurge", u mean?
[10:18] <erUSUL> yep btw http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_set
[10:18] <filthpig> erwin_, okay. I'm not very good at problems like that so I can't help any more than just finding other peoples solutions to the problem. Sorry. Let's hope somebody else can help out
[10:18] <idefix> how much can we tolerate things/people that don't make sense?
[10:18] <mib_88cqzp94> i;m still on the step of "Configuring Localepurge", hav just installed the program several mins ago
[10:18] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: the code name for Arabic is obviously "ar",,maybe
[10:19] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: but I didn't find code name "jp" for Japanese, instead there are "ja", "ja_JP"
[10:20] <_2> Ububegin free reports my system using 78m of ram  but without counting the buffers it's only 19m used.   as also reported in /proc/meminfo when parsed correctly.    Memory Used/Total Percent: 19/502 MB (3%)
[10:20] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: ja_JP is japanese_japan
[10:20] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: ok.. I choose ar, en, and jp
[10:20] <zetheroo> is there a way to search for computers on the network?
[10:21] <erUSUL> zetheroo: nmap the net
[10:21] <zetheroo> erUSUL  : how?
[10:21] <owner> what?
[10:21] <zetheroo> erUSUL : how does that work? ... from the terminal?
[10:21] <mib_88cqzp94> guys... I have run the localepurge - unfortunately it just save 35MBs
[10:21] <owner> erusul??
[10:21] <erUSUL> zetheroo: install zenmap (a gui for nmap) and d a basic scan
[10:22] <mib_88cqzp94> so the free space in my "/" drive is still 150MBs
[10:22] <erUSUL> owner: ?
[10:22] <mib_88cqzp94> it is still dangerous, isn't it?
[10:22] <zetheroo> erUSUL  : ok .. thanks
[10:22] <mib_88cqzp94> is there a way to enlarge the "/" drive? becoz I hav tried with gParted but it can't do anything to the "/" drive...
[10:22] <erUSUL> zetheroo: idf what you want is find windows shares and the like just go to Places>Net>Windows Network
[10:23] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: you have to do it from a livecd
[10:23] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: gparted can not touch mounted filesystems
[10:23] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: for example... I mount Ubuntu livecd, and run GParted from there?
[10:23] <aptux> How can i completely delete everything from hardrive to install windows normally? WinSetup sees separate disks now...
[10:23] <zetheroo> erUSUL  : yes
[10:23] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: so that's why I failed with gParted..
[10:24] <erUSUL> mib_88cqzp94: no you *boot* the ubuntu livecd
[10:24] <mib_88cqzp94> erUSUL: LOL yeah of course...
[10:24] <mib_88cqzp94> hehehe sorry
[10:24] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 why try to streach a filesystem when you can just mount more space where you need it.   mount a filesystem on /home  or on /tmp on /var/cache/apt/archives  on /usr  even.   just don't try it with / or /etc or /*bin
[10:25] <erUSUL> aptux: delete all partitions during win install (and create a new one for windows)
[10:25] <mib_88cqzp94> but there's something weird... in Nautilus, when I point on FileSystems it said that the free space is 150MBs, but when I use gParted, it said the free space is 500MBs... why's that?
[10:25] <hume> after a reinstallation on ubuntu hardy, formatting the system partition, I get grub error 22. Anyone got ideas on this?
[10:25] <aptux> erUSUL, it says they are mbr or smth like that.
[10:26] <trilobit`> Hi all. I have a file that contains words which are each in one line and enclosed in quotation marks. How can I get rid of the quotation marks ?
[10:26] <aptux> Just two separate partitions, and win can do nothing
[10:26] <mib_88cqzp94> _2: sorry... I don't get what u mean.. could u pls explain it more?
[10:26] <zetheroo> erUSUL  : where is the shortcut to Zenmap located?
[10:27] <erUSUL> zetheroo: launch it from "Alt + f2"
[10:27] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 have a look at the output of "mount"  and see what all you have mounted now.   in linux the root filesystem / is the base of all filesystems, anything you access is mounted some places on a subdir of /
[10:27] <zetheroo> erUSUL  : shoudl I launch it as root?
[10:27] <erUSUL> zetheroo: yep
[10:27] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 the "df -h" command is handy too.
[10:28] <aptux> I'm using gparted from livecd, but it gives me dev/sda and dev/sdb
[10:28] <aptux> I want my ONE harddrive back :D
[10:28] <erUSUL> aptux: you can use the ubuntu livecd to leave the disk clean with gparted if you like... about how to do it with windows ask in ##windows
[10:29] <jivan28> Hi all, does anybody of a good-looking net applet for systray?
[10:29] <zetheroo> erUSUL  : what shoudl I put in Target?
[10:29] <aptux> it still can not merge two harddrives in one for me, erusul?
[10:29] <toresn> i have many files on the form '1x01 - the note.mkv' ... how do i rename so that i get a capital letter in each word ('1x01 - The Note.mkv')
[10:29] <erUSUL> aptux: if you have /dev/sda and /dev/sdb you have two phisical drives
[10:29] <mib_88cqzp94> me
[10:29] <aptux> How do i make it one?
[10:29] <erUSUL> aptux: nothing you can do about it
[10:29] <aptux> ????
[10:29] <aptux> But...how?
[10:29] <aptux> It was one :D
[10:29] <erUSUL> aptux: maybe you have it raided in the bios...
[10:30] <mib_88cqzp94> _2: the result of "mount" it's here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/56954/
[10:30] <mib_88cqzp94> _2... and then?
[10:30] <aptux> erUSUL, dont think so. i was playing a lot with dd if=... though.
[10:30] <zetheroo> erUSUL  : I put smb:/// in the Target field ... but it did not work
[10:30] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 here's a case example for you.  say i have 4g fs mounted as / and 24g mounted as /home   but the system is full at fs / so i need to make more space.   i have another hdd with plenty of free space so rather than messing around, i mount a 40g fs on /tmp and move everything from /usr to it. then remount it on /usr.   now my system has 3g of free space on / and plenty of room to grow.
[10:31] <_2> wrap your head around the general idea and the rest is childs play.
[10:31] <erUSUL> zetheroo: no; zemap is to scan a net looking for computers attached to it... if you want to look for windows shares use Places>Net>Windows Network
[10:31] <mib_88cqzp94> _2.. ok, let me re-read your sentences one more time, 'kay? :p
[10:32] <zetheroo> erUSUL: oh I see ... but thats the thing... in Nautilus it seems to not show computers that are actually on the network and are available ...
[10:32] <zetheroo> erUSUL : so I was hoping there was something that could be used to search for computers on the network like in Windows XP
[10:33] <wartalker> after i install ipwraw the wireless driver, when i restart, the default driver is it, how to set the iwl3945 to default
[10:33] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 why not pastebin the output of   df -h   also
[10:33] <erUSUL> !samba | zetheroo
[10:34] <wartalker> how to set iwl3945 to the default driver for wireless card
[10:34] <Mickmeister> What is the name of this system performance application on the right hand side? http://www.softpedia.com/screenshots/Mandriva-Linux_2.jpg
[10:35] <mib_88cqzp94> _2, here is my df -h: http://paste.ubuntu.com/56959/
[10:35] <zetheroo> erUSUL  : is SWAT in the repos?
[10:36] <mib_88cqzp94> _2, sorry here is the full result, I've mounted all the drives : http://paste.ubuntu.com/56960/
[10:37] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 have you tracked down what is eating up the space on / ?    du -sh /
[10:37] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 still working..
[10:37] <erUSUL> zetheroo: yep... but swat is mostly for configuring your computer to share things if you are only a client nautilus and smbclient etc should be enough
[10:38] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 usually I use Disk Usage Analyzer tool - away from the terminal ;p
[10:38] <Plz> I`m going to upgrade OpenOffice.org from 2.4.1 to 3.0 now
[10:39] <fenerli7> good idea, you'll never look back
[10:39] <zetheroo> erUSUL : it just seems like Samba is very moody in that it sometimes shows computers on the network and other times does not....
[10:39] <Plz> but I wonder if I shall download the RPM or DEB version from http://download.openoffice.org/other.html
[10:39] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 seems it should be : sudo du -sh /
[10:40] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 .... it still produce errors..
[10:40] <Plz> deb or rpm?
[10:40] <fenerli7> zetheroo: so it's not just me... if you enter smb://hostname/, it works
[10:40] <erUSUL> !deb | Plz
[10:40] <fenerli7> Plz: deb of course
[10:40] <Plz> ok. thank you.
[10:40] <linny> anyone know of a converter for nix that will convert .avi to .rec ?
[10:40] <fenerli7> Plz: deb for Ubuntu/Debian/etc., rpm for Fedora/Red Hat/etc.
[10:40] <erUSUL> linny: ffmpeg
[10:40] <erUSUL> ?
[10:40] <zetheroo> fenerli7 : is there no command or app that sniffs out the available computers? ... cause I don' remember all the names ..
[10:41] <go_beep_yourself> linny-> avidemux
[10:41] <fenerli7> zetheroo: not sure, would like to know myself too
[10:41] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 the error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/56961/
[10:41] <zetheroo> I installed SWAT ... how do you open it?
[10:41] <linny> thanks guys
[10:41] <go_beep_yourself> what is swat?
[10:41] <Olof_szary> how much swap I need having 4GB RAM (kubuntu x64) ?
[10:42] <sinan> how can i uninstall a library that was installed with "make install" ?
[10:42] <mgolisch> make uninstall?
[10:42] <go_beep_yourself> sinan-> sudo make unisntall
[10:42] <mgolisch> if it has a uninstall target
[10:42] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 ;/
[10:42] <zetheroo> !SWAT
[10:42] <fenerli7> any web authors, designers, developers here? my Dreamweaver license is increasingly going to waste and I am yet to find a decent Linux alternative (NVU's the best I've found, it is not bad but not great either)
[10:42] <mgolisch> if not just delete the stuff manualy @ sinan
[10:42] <zetheroo> !swat
[10:42] <zetheroo> hmmm
[10:42] <fenerli7> should I try Dreamweaver through Wine?
[10:42] <zetheroo> :)
[10:42] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 what...? ;)
[10:43] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 if you don't want to see error messages chunck them in /dev/null....    du -sm /* 2>/dev/null | sort -g
[10:43] <blackcookie> hi, plis i have problems with the plugins db_ of msf, somebody can help me?
[10:43] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 urgh.. I never like terminal..
[10:43] <sinan> When i have multiple versions of the same library, how does the compiler know which to use?
[10:44] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 you ROCK... those line works!
[10:44] <go_beep_yourself> blackcookie-> #remote-exploit
[10:44] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 i never use a gui  ;/
[10:44] <erUSUL> fenerli7: kompozer... i heard about aptana (eclipse based) http://www.aptana.com/
[10:44] <faileas> anyone know of any free software that can backup to something restorable from bare metal on multiple DVDs - mondo dosen't seem to work for me so thats out....
[10:44] <blackcookie> go_beep_yourself: yeah
[10:44] <mgolisch> sinan: what do you mean by that?
[10:44] <go_beep_yourself> faileas-> sbackup
[10:44] <go_beep_yourself> ?
[10:45] <mgolisch> sinan: ld will use the one it finds first, in the order the dirs are in LD_LIBRARY_PATH and ld.so
[10:45] <fenerli7> erUSUL: Didn't like Kompozer either but Aptana sure gave a nice first impression from the site
[10:45] <faileas> go_beep_yourself: can i do bare metal recovery from it?
[10:45] <sinan> mgolisch: i have installed 2 version of libmemcached by running "make install" in both. Then, I compile a code that relies on libmemcached, which version will be used?
[10:45] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 the result is here http://paste.ubuntu.com/56962/
[10:45] <fenerli7> erUSUL: thanks very much
[10:45] <sinan> mgolisch: aha, ok thanks :)
[10:45] <go_beep_yourself> faileas-> it might do what you want. i havent made any backups except using raid 1.
[10:45] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 thanks, terminal-person :D
[10:46] <faileas> go_beep_yourself: yeah, at the moment the only thing that seems to do what i want is mondo (which dosen't work) and acronis (which is quite expensive for something i suspect i only need once)
[10:46] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 but the result is quite weird... isnt it?
[10:46] <go_beep_yourself> faileas-> whats bare metal recovery
[10:46] <xjohnthomasx> anyone have experience setting up mythtv or mysql5??
[10:47] <carandraug> !fonts > carandraug
[10:47] <faileas> go_beep_yourself: i want to backup my system to a DVD or set of DVDs (ideally) or FTP, then be able to restore the system totally from it
[10:47] <faileas> assuming my system was totally hosed
[10:48] <mib_88cqzp94> _2, I think this is the RIGHT one http://paste.ubuntu.com/56964/
[10:48] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 no, it's pretty normal to me.    ok /usr is where you space is being eaten up.  you'll need to put that on a clean "larger" fs. if you can.   or check with  ( du -sm /usr/* 2>/dev/null | sort -g )  to see where withing user it went.  and work from there.
[10:48] <go_beep_yourself> faileas-> i think dd can do it. do you mean similar to norton clone disk?
[10:48] <faileas> go_beep_yourself: norton ghost would be a closer fit
[10:48] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 look! the /usr has 5.3Gigs???
[10:48] <go_beep_yourself> faileas-> dd can do it
[10:48] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 yes.  and the whole / has only 7   duh!
[10:49] <faileas> go_beep_yourself: that seems rather inefficient, and i'd need a linux system to restore with
[10:49] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 i know.. i know... i'm a newbie back then (but still right now :p)
[10:49] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 what size is your / ?
[10:49] <go_beep_yourself> faileas-> dd is made for windows also
[10:49] <trilobit`> Is there any command that changes the login name of a user? As in  "commandhere oldusername newusername"
[10:50] <faileas> go_beep_yourself: well hypothetical scenario - system dies, i pop in DVD 1 of my backup, and it starts restoring everything
[10:50] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 so I basically need to put /usr (or re-mount it) to another place?
[10:50] <faileas> mondo SHOULD do that but it seems broken for me
[10:50] <go_beep_yourself> faileas-> i saw some other software that does what you want. ill try to find it.
[10:50] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 17g / and 80g /home  but that's what size my disks are...  i don't use partitions.
[10:50] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 why no partitions? if u don't mind me asking..
[10:51] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 yes.  "<mib_88cqzp94> _2 so I basically need to put /usr (or re-mount it) to another place? <<<<   exactly.
[10:51] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 mine is 120Gigs and I used up 20Gigs for Ubuntu 8.04 repo :p

[10:51] <wendico> hello, how can i disconnect my wvdial conecction the correct way? should i just Ctrl+C in the coneccted console?
[10:52] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 i don't really have a reason.   it just seemed l33t to have hdd's with no partition table.   and when i set it up that way, i liked it.
[10:52] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 lol... it sounds cool tho, get some people like me asking curiously :p
[10:53] <FicaBlok38> Hello, i has this problem :
[10:53] <FicaBlok38> sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0666, should be 0440
[10:53] <mib_88cqzp94> _2 ok thanks for those cool terminal line, but I really wanna expand the / drive coz it sucks to have only 7gigs..
[10:53] <FicaBlok38> *have
[10:54] <FicaBlok38> can somebody help me?
[10:54] <Werdna> FicaBlok38: did you try changing the mode of /etc/sudoers to 0440?
[10:54] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 but back to your issue.   i would suggest booting a live CD and mounting the sda3 on /mnt  then "what ever partition/device" on /media  and move all the content of /mnt/usr/ to media    edit /mnt/etc/fstab  and set the new space to automaticly mount on /usr when you reboot.   that's all there is to that process.
[10:54] <goldmetal> anyone which app on windows will record voice?
[10:55] <FicaBlok38> werdan7: yeah
[10:55] <wendico> hello, how do i correctly shut down a ppp conection started in console with wvdial?
[10:55] <FicaBlok38> Werdna: yeah
[10:56] <Werdna> FicaBlok38: well, what does it say if you try it?
[10:56] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 but if you prefer streching the fs "which is more risky" feel free to do so.    it is your system   i was just trying to make it easy/safe
[10:56] <FicaBlok38> Werdna: i try chmod 440 /etc/sudoers
[10:56] <go_beep_yourself> goldmetal-> ##windows
[10:57] <FicaBlok38> and it say chmod: changing permissions of `/etc/sudoers': Operation not permitted
[10:57] <stan_> connect
[10:58] <EvilTchnlgy_> does anyone happent o know if redundant power supplies in pweredge servers are completly hardware based or if a software component needs to be installed to support hotswapping?
[10:58] <EvilTchnlgy_> just curious if anyone knows off the top of their head, i havent even googled yet..
[10:59] <_2> mib_88cqzp94 just a side note on the disk usage we were talking about.   of my 17g /  i have  7.5G used   but 4G of that is /var/cache/apt/archives/*   i don't delete downloaded packages.
[11:00] <Werdna> FicaBlok38: you need to be root to change the perms, obviously
[11:00] <Werdna> su -c chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers
[11:01] <go_beep_yourself> wendico-> not sure if this is the correct way but this guide has killall wvdial http://www.davidpashley.com/articles/wvdial-pppd-dod.html
[11:01] <_2> Werdna su ???
[11:01] <Werdna> _2: yep, su
[11:01] <_2> Werdna can he do that ?
[11:01] <odracir34> burp

[11:01] <Jerusalem420> something keeps changing my  /etc/resolv.conf. putting in a bad dns sever number.
[11:01] <Jerusalem420> anyideas whats causing this
[11:01] <FicaBlok38> just that
[11:02] <Werdna> su -c
[11:02] <Werdna> erm
[11:02] <Werdna> just su
[11:02] <_2> FicaBlok38 replace su -c   with   sudo     and try it
[11:02] <Jerusalem420> i've written a little script that fixes the problem but i want to find the root cause
[11:02] <HtheB> hi I need some little help :(
[11:02] <FicaBlok38> sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0666, should be 0440
[11:02] <Werdna> _2: sudo is the problem.
[11:02] <Werdna> _2: that's why I said use su!
[11:02] <HtheB> When I double click on the window titel, it is "rolling" up
[11:03] <HtheB> how can I change it to "maximize"?
[11:03] <fenerli7> HtheB: emerald?
[11:03] <Jerusalem420> whats the difference between su and sudo?
[11:03] <_2> Werdna but can he "su"  ?       did he set a password for root ?
[11:03] <HtheB> yes
[11:03] <_2> ok.
[11:03] <HtheB> adamim fener bu sene cok kotu gidiyor :P
[11:03] <carandraug> Jerusalem420: su switches user. Sudo only gives his permissions
[11:03] <fenerli7> HtheB: cok dogru :(
[11:03] <Jerusalem420> thanks carandraug.
[11:04] <FicaBlok38> _2: no, i don`t know password for su
[11:04] <Jerusalem420> anyone have any ideas about my above question?
[11:04] <Werdna> _2: worth a try :)
[11:04] <HtheB> ama nasil degistirecegim bunu? :(
[11:04] <faileas> go_beep_yourself: hmm i'll need to install it to see ;)
[11:04] <_2> FicaBlok38 you'll have to boot to recovery mode.     there is no password for root
[11:04] <fenerli7> HtheB: bilmiyorum, bende ayni problem var
[11:04] <go_beep_yourself> faileas-> good luck
[11:05] <HtheB> ana

[11:05] <HtheB> hahahaha
[11:05] <_2> FicaBlok38 don't froget the command >>>   chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers
[11:05] <FloodBot3> HtheB: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:05] <FicaBlok38> _2: yes i was tried that
[11:05] <FicaBlok38> same problem with sudo
[11:05] <HtheB> Emerald a gir, Emerald ayarlarina gir
